Moonshadow looked as though she could kiss Rayne for offering her much-needed relief. Ledude had other ideas, though, as he rejected Rayne's offer. "Nah, she needs a lesson to reinforce her place once in a while. That's for taking your panties without my permission. Besides, she looks pretty like this, doesn't she?" That was debatable, the way the little monk was kneeling with her legs spread, clad only in Rayne's bikini bottoms and her tight leather collar, the lack of a top leaving her small breasts bare, her modesty preserved only by an arm held across her chest. Her lips were parted to let her breaths come out in heavy pants, her free hand absentmindedly running circles around her sex through the fabric of her bottoms, avoiding touching herself more directly only because she knew it would only make matters worse. The cum covering her back and hair slowly dried, leaving her body stained and her hair clumped together in its ponytail. The sight of her aroused either one's lust or one's pity.<br/><br/>"I was thinking of heading back to Port Lannis," Ledude continued, "but after what you said, that's probably not a good idea. I think I'll stay here the night and see if things have settled down by tomorrow - and who knows, maybe the operators will have finally gotten their act together and fixed things by then. Come, my girl! We have a tavern to invade!" He called to Moonshadow, and they entered the bar together.<br/><br/>The sun was dipping low, casting Melangwi Outpost in a new light. The nearby jungle looked a lot more sinister than during the day, the shadows of trees stretching out like claws towards the could-be-sturdier palisade that was all that stood between the wilderness without and civilization within. The outpost had never seemed as small before as it appeared now. There were four wooden watchtowers and a barracks, almost never explored by players as there was nothing of interest inside, no quest-giver or merchant or hidden stash. The stable, where Horse was contently chewing on some oats. Most of the rest of the outpost was the courtyard formed within the ring of the palisade, a place for players to form parties in better times. There were only a few stores surrounding the courtyard. Two outdoor stalls, one selling consumables including food and potions, the other selling less edible supplies like ropes and arrows. A third stall was closed down and empty. It used to provide access to long term storage and the cash shop, but had been abandoned ever since the new patch. The last and largest building was the bar, a place originally designed for players to socialize and have fun out of character without breaking immersion outside. It also doubled as an inn, with a second floor filled with private rooms that were rented out by the hour and not exactly meant for sleeping in, although things might have changed since Rayne last checked.
