<div class="floatright">(https://i.imgur.com/OU8STeM.png)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Kael Marielle Caliburn<br/><strong> Location:</strong>Expedition Camp -- Mess Tents<br/><strong>Warnings:</strong><br/><strong>Open/Closed:</strong>Open<br/><strong>Direct Interaction Tags:</strong>Amile, Kashi<br/><strong>Mentioned Tags:</strong>Astra, Freis<br/><strong>Actions Taken:</strong>Got some food<br/><hr/>Plenty of humans hated what Kael was, and many halde spurned him as well in an attempt to distance themselves from the atrocities of the past. So when Astra, albeit she was a halde, scolded him not unlike a mother would her own children. Which, from what he had seen so far, perhaps she saw everyone as her child? But the pat to the head made the small demon blink in surprise, looking back at Liam with a small blush before noticing her and another woman - named Freis - were walking back towards the mess tent. He took a bite of the bread she had given him, stepping off as well... only for the barmaid who Raff had been harassing to stand in front of him. He looked up at her - with the demon being smaller than most humans he had ever met - and quickly tried to study her face. But, oddly, all he could see was... a smile? A small one, sure, but still a smile.<br/><br/>"Um..." she began, biting her lip a bit. "Th-thank you. And I'm sorry for screaming. It's just-"<br/><br/>Kael shook his head with a small smile. "I understand. Really, I do. I'm the stuff of nightmares, or the stories your parents told you to keep you in line?" At the woman's shy nod he smiled again. "I'm that for me too." A flash of something passed through his eyes, but most probably wouldn't see it if they were no longer paying attention.<br/><br/>"Let's get some food, Kael. Then we can sit and chat?" Liam suggested, something that Kael agreed to soon enough. They went to the mess tent, being served a bowl of meat gravy each, before sitting down at a nearby table - incedentally, Liam brought Kael to a table with a pair of adventurers. One with tattoos and an axe, the other a beastblooded without a tail. "Ho there, friends!" Liam's voice was cheeful as Kael sat next to him, the demon blushing a little. "My name is Liam, I'm of the Skri-Daal school of Bente. This is Kael-"<br/><br/>"Also of the Skri-Daal school," Kael said in unison, catching the other man's eyes and smiling a little. "I apologize for the trouble I caused."
