Smiling and nodding at Terra’s reply Tyger says, “You were tricked into coming through the portal even as I was. Your reasons for staying are honorable I like that. Perhaps when this is over and we are sent back, I can accompany you and join you and the Returners in fighting this evil Empire. You would gain the money to finance the rebellion and a new ally, even if we both lose you will have gotten another sword to help in the fight.”<br/><br/>Remaining silent for a moment Tyger thinks about the best way to answer her question and grant her wish. With a sigh he says, “I don’t recall ever really being given a name. I never knew my parents. My earliest memories are of my foster home and the humans that raised me. I have always been an outcast, they called fosterling, halfbreed, or simply boy. When I struck out on my as a lad of 12 or 13 I took this name. I thought it made me sound tough or something. A decade and a half later I fought and killed the beast that passed its curse on to me, which gave people more reason to not accept me. More than two centuries have passed now and I still do not have a place to call home.”<br/><br/>Another sigh slips from Tyger. “A greater demon was let loose and was destroying the village I was staying in. I fought and defeated the demon, saving the village and everyone in it and probably a lot of other towns and lives. During the fight I changed into the form I showed on the transport. When it was all over the villagers all looked at me with terror in their eyes and even the woman who had shared my bed the last few days and had asked me to stay pulled away in fear. As I was leaving a shuriken came out of nowhere striking a tree near me. When I touched it I was filled with a feeling much like I am feeling now with you. It is a feeling I have never really felt before and one that I want very much to feel. It started flying on its own and out of curiosity I followed it. Traveling at a speed I could not keep up with I transformed in to the tiger so as not to lose it. It flew through a portal and I was moving to rapidly to stop and fell through. As you I boarded the transport out of curiosity.” With a laugh he says, “I assume you heard my reasons for staying participating.”<br/><br/>As Terra steps out of the shower wearing the towel Tyger cannot help give her an appraising look letting his eyes move down to her feet and slowly back up to her eyes. The smile on his face and sparkle in his violet eyes is one of approval and true happiness. At her comment his smile changes to a mischievous grin and in a breathy voice he says, “The only thing I can think of that might leave me unable to move is something I would rather do on the bed with you.” He then growls in a ‘playful’ manner before hanging the gown on a bar and stepping back out of the room closing the door.
