Selina was listening t the conversation asher mind wandered elsewhere...she remembered the meeting she'd had with Kouki in one of Sylescia's temples near the edge of the city.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">"So, are you her friend...or is it that you found her injured and took her to us?" She'd asked Kouki.  Kouki had responded by unsheathing her sword and removing the amulet from the girl, she didn't seem to like the fact that she'd even had to help the girl and had even gone so far as to point her sword at Selina, requesting that she and Kouki talk somewhere private...or rather, demanding that she did so.  Some of the maidens backed away worried about what Kouki was going to do with the sword.<br/><br/>"Um...uh, sorry to leave you so suddenly, but I just remembered I have to get back to my companions. Feel free to stay in the temple with the maidens for as long as you require." Selina had mentioned to Tara before turning to face the maidens with a gentle smile. "Sorry I can't stay longer, but I have a mission to complete...maybe next time?" She added in a hopeful flirtatious manner, pretending that nothing was wrong, but hiding her deep inner terror of the woman that stood before her.<br/>"Come this way."  She spoke to Kouki, leading her to a side room before asking her very timidly.  "Okay, we're alone...what did you want to ask me...and how do you know my name?"</span><br/><br/>As she stood there daydreaming about the past meeting with Kouki, the gentle patter of rain started to fall all around her.
