It was only until the Songbird told him where Thurmgard was from that he realized the caravan wasn't from the Padhe Empire. The long pause of silence allowed him to grasp the information. Seems as though there was a strong stranglehold now that the rumors were spreading like wildfire. That despite the escape the Empress and her remaining one hundred strong guards had been slain. It wasn't his business but it was important that he make sure he recognized whom was in charge of what. With such a upheaval in Padhe perhaps he should put his destination elsewhere once he was done with this job.<br/><br/>He was standing in the water at shoulder height and yet he was distant in his thoughts. Suddenly he feels a warm embrace around him, and the familiar sensation of  feminine supple perfection. He listened to her as she had this decisive look upon her and she began to speak to him. She told him of how her dreams were of him now and that she would rather risk everything to be his concubine rather than anyone else. She was his and his alone now. His hands took hold of her by her ass cheeks as he spoke up.<strong>"Mmm... what dreams were they?"</strong>He teased her since she was on the subject. Just to let the moment remain intimate before they talk of serious matters.<br/><br/>He'd go through her decision one by one.<strong>"What of the Thakur? I know and no longer doubt you are what you say you are. You're a concubine... why give up such luxury for a harsh life with me?"</strong>He simply asked her. Earlier he had not given it thought that she belonged to another and that it would be suicide to steal her for him. But... he was having seconds thoughts. Also he hadn't missed how bizarre her sentence came out. "I'm the concubine" To him it didn't make much sense in that regard. Shouldn't she say she is a concubine like before? Obviously this might annoy her considering he was only hearing her as a concubine and not what she had wanted to say.
