<div class="floatleft">(http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs51/f/2009/329/3/7/Red_Rose_by_fhrankee.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Meriel Nerine<br/><strong>Race:</strong>Drai'shok<br/><strong>Players Nearby:</strong>Dak<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Near her cottage.<br/><hr/><br/>As confused as he was, she was moreso. Whereas he knew that there were other species, she had not known that dragons were anything more than myth. This encounter, combined with the previous night's visitor and the discovered treasure this morning had her wondering if this wasn't all some dream. However, it seemed to be real. She supposed that even if it was a dream, playing along was really the only option.<br/><br/>Of course, there was also the possibility that she was hallucinating and had simply gone insane. For all she knew, the bag of gold could really be a pile of manure, and the man before her could be a bear. Still, the only thing she could do was try to make sense of it. Swallowing, she frowned and looked sympathetic when it was obvious that he was truly worried for his sister. She supposed everyone had families...even dragons.<br/><br/>"I am very sorry, but no. A man passed by last night, but he was alone and he is the only other person I've seen. And I certainly haven't seen any other...dragons."<br/><br/>The sentence felt strange even coming off her tongue, but she looked up into his eyes.<br/><br/>"However, I will help however I can. If you need money, food, a place to stay or someone to assist in searching, I'll be glad to offer aid in whatever way you need."<br/><br/>She figured it was a stupid thing to say, but she didn't want him to think that she didn't care...even if she was a stranger.
