"I...didn't think you'd be awake," Mera lied to Yifa.  Truth was, she didn't want to ask Yifa for help because she didn't know what form that help would take.  "Ah...o...kay," she responded slowly, squeaking when Yifa's hand bounced off her butt.  "Yes, today we're just looking around, nothing major.  We'll probably leave tomorrow in the late morning.  I know we paid for at least three days, but give the innkeeper a nice little bonus, let him think he's gotten a good deal from a far-off stranger," she verbally decided for herself.  They needed to get back on the trail.<br/><br/>"Uhm...no, you can wear it," she replied regarding the new garment.  She shivered at the thought of having to wear that again, given what happened yesterday.
