Name: Marcus<br/>Current form: Human --> dragon --> human --> dragon --> human<br/>Players nearby: Meriel<br/>Location: Cottage --> Centos city<br/><br/>As the night went on Marcus sighed and carefully got out of bed, pressing a soft kiss against her cheek. He went into his room and looked around, he would stay, but he knew if things got too serious between them he would feel only guilt in hiding his true self from her. He gathered his things and got dressed once more before stepping out of the cottage. He got to a safe distance and began transforming, his face stretching out into the dragonic beak and his body stretching to the large size. He spread his wings far apart before taking off into the air. As he hovered above her cottage he sighed and knew he owed her something for the kindness she'd given him.<br/><br/>He flew off and got to his cave once more, enjoying the cold water rushing over him as he walked through the waterfall in front of it. When he got inside he went to the very back of his cave and began looking through the piles of treasure resting there, gold, jewelry, crowns, even a throne he'd gotten from a raided caravan. He grabbed a small sack, small to him, but rather large to a human. He dipped it into the pile and smiled, normally no dragon would part with his treasure, but this was an exception, Meriel had been one of the kindest women he'd ever met in his many years.<br/><br/>With the sack full of gold he held it in his mouth and walked out of his cave once more, taking off into the sky with a gust of his mighty wings. He bolted into the night sky and his gems almost made him disappear into the darkness. As he glided in the sky he began looking for the cottage again, though it wasn't too hard to find in the middle of nowhere like that. He landed out in the woods and changed to his human form once more, sighing as he reentered the cottage. He found a bit of paper and a quill along with a pen. He began writing a note for Meriel:<br/><br/><em>"I thank you for your kindness beyond all measures, Meriel, but I felt I should go despite that.<br/>As a thanks for this I've gotten you something I hope might repay you.<br/>I wish you all the best and perhaps our paths will cross again some day"</em><br/><br/>He set the note on her kitchen table along with the heavy sack of gold, which he now realized was quite big, though he didn't care to correct it. He went to her door once more and glanced to her with a smile before turning and walking out her door.<br/><br/>He went into the woods once more and realized his new destination would be the Centos city that they were closest to, Klith. He was in the air once again as he began flying towards the city, enjoying a cool breeze that added to the wind that traveled over his body, his form splitting through the air with ease. About a mile outside the city he landed and changed, deciding to walk the rest of the way as he didn't want to garner any attention. He'd done jobs in this city before, it was a nice place.
