Upon hearing the serpent hiss and grudgingly say fine about touching him, Verita skipped forward and gently slid her fingers over the smooth cold surface of the serpents scales. A grin was spread wide upon her face as she attended all her attention to the snake-like creature, feeling its magic tingle underneath the surface of her fingertips. The being itself would not be able to feel the old dwelling power that hid deep within her soul, a remnant of the guest that frequently visited her at night, whispering dark thoughts in her restless nightmares of the past days.<br/><br/>The girls eyes stood absent as she let herself revel in those thoughts, visibly looking worried to whomever might look at the vacant sight of her face. Nevertheless she returned in time, to answer the words the serpent spoke to her.<br/><br/>''It was given in the storm, by the storm we think. As soon as we leave the waters, the troubles will leave us too. I really hope they do, because our group could use some time to breathe before we reach our destination...''<br/><br/>Verita listened to the reply of Tyora and watched the green leaves tangled in the elves hair for a while before she shook her head and wondered out loud.<br/><br/>''Where is your home, and how come you have left your wife? I did not know you were a man, I really believed...''<br/><br/>Her eyes lingered upon the ample supply of breasts that stood fiercely on the elf's chest as the look of confusion only multiplied on the young druids face.<br/><br/>''What are you?''<br/><br/>After listening to the answer Tyora gave her, Verita's attention fixated on the girl climbing upon deck from below. She had missed Dawn, and had felt like the girl had been avoiding her since that dreadful night. Not that she blamed her much, she wasn't very pleasant company to be with when the visitor resided inside her soul. It was almost as if she was a completely different person when that happened. Nevertheless, she was clean today, and felt her heart ache for unanswered questions and kisses to be multiplied. Especially after what Tyora told her of her wife, she hungered for the touch of Dawn upon her own wet cheeks.<br/><br/>But before she could smile, and comfort the girls feelings about her own well-being, a dark and threatening shadow was cast upon everyone on the ship. It made Verita instantaneously look up, only to find out that they had finally entered the cave, and would be able to make dock in a few seconds. Her hearth leaped of joy though, after having it felt beating in her throat of a sudden flare of fear from the darkness. She could see lights up ahead, many flickering orange and yellow lights of lanterns and fires, telling her that there was a town inside of this cave. With people, and laughter and joy to be heard!<br/><br/>''There is a town! Look, Look! There are people living here, we will be able to rest in a comfortable bed, and hear stories about what has happened in the rest of the world! Maybe they have heard word of Darion and the Aviari already!''<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
