Nirael had reacted by old instincts, worrying about things the way he had learned amongst other people. He worried because he cherished Lunari's company, yet at the same time he had been playing with Mara and chasing other pleasures as well. He had not worried too much about any of that, but the mystery lover had made him hurry about in a manner he had to admit, in certain respect, was rather hilarious. He was a clueless male for a moment and ended up playing with someone else pretending to be Lunari, but if the lady in question did not find any offense in the act, then why would he worry so much? It was a fair question, and one that he had no easy answer to.<br/><br/><strong>"You are right and I'll put the matter aside, it is not worth the worrying in these times. I think I've been acting the part of a fool but I'm lucky it all turns out amusing more than anything."</strong>He smiled and moved to brush a hand along both their backs, smile playing on his lips as he moved to retire for the coming night with the two lovely women. He had been thinking on things for too long, and worrying when he should have remembered to enjoy and cherish life as it came. That night, he planned to cherish resting against the two of them.<br/><br/><hr/><hr/><br/>The last thoughts of the day fell upon the thought of what to work on in the coming day. He'd still need to try and carry on his lessons to his young student, and though he took a break from Mara's company with things getting more serious, it would probably be best to include her in that to not make her feel neglected. Of course, he wanted to also spend some time wandering among these people, to remind himself what it was all for.<br/><br/>The matter about the kobold still worried him, he was no closer to a solution than he had been yesterday, and there was a limit to how long he could work on the matter before time ran out. He needed to study the magical materials but also to remember to learn more about the people. He needed to stand with them and understand the people better. He also felt that his studies had been rewarding so far, and he wanted to carry them on to the evening, yet after the worship, he'd spend a bit more time along with the Matriarch and the Priestess, and with the Matriarch's permission, perhaps seeing if he could help settle some worries on her mind.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">"Day 5, Scheduling"</div><div class="spoiler_body">6 - 22 time awake, of which the first 6-7 hour spent preparing his magic for the day, leaving him with the rest of the day's hours to schedule, 15 hours total to divide then.<br/>* 1 hour to socialize with native elves (in male form, with a guard)<br/>* 1 hour spent socializing with Sirana (socializing, teaching, approaching the matter of more, and informing her of the fact he'd need to soon focus his studies on the attacks.)<br/>* 1 hour spent with Sirana &amp; Mara in more Carnal Pursuits.
