Back to the room shared by the two elven ladies, back to the decadent outfits, the magnificent bed, the unfinished glasses of wine, the scent of black lotus...  While Aria set about waking one of the two girls up, Rose pushed open the door that led out onto the balcony, hoping to air out the room a little and perhaps give the two elves a chance to clear their heads.  Not that she really expected it to work, if they had been kept drugged long enough to break their spirits...<br/><br/>"To be honest, I got the feeling that, if Astos had won in our little encounter with him, we'd have joined these two up here, rather than being killed."  The Shifter responded, watching the Tiefling work.  "I don't particularly want to think about what he would have done, but given that he'd have been almost certain to find the two of them tied up like that...  Well, I'm glad you took him out first."<br/><br/>And with the elf already awakening, further conversation was cut short.  Listening as her companion translated for her, the warrior's eyes narrowed as she listened to the woman speak.  She wasn't exactly sure what to say in response.  Obviously, the best answer seemed to be to inform her that Astos was dead, and she was free...  But she really wasn't very good at this sort of thing.  She had a feeling it might be more a source of distress than a source of relief.<br/><br/>Still, keeping them in the dark couldn't be good...<br/><br/>"...Not quite."  She responded, after several seconds of thought.  She allowed Aria to translate this for her, and then...  "You wouldn't happen to be able to speak Common, would you?  This is going to be a lot easier to say if I don't have to rely on an interpreter."  And then an apologetic glance at her lover.  "Er, no offense, Aria."<br/><br/><br/><br/>Thank you. ^^ I'll have to see if I can keep the sexiness up for you, then.
