Draiss kissed the back of her neck, and then leaned against her, enjoying the heat from her much warmer body. He continued to gently molest her on the way back, but not so much that she decided that she wanted more.<br/><br/>Upon arriving back at the temple, he sighed in irritation, noting that the rather enjoyable atmosphere that had been there was completely destroyed, and while On'year's return did help soothe the younger female's fears, her own fears were clearly, at least to him, eating at her. The high priestess was just as calm as On'year, but her fear was even greater, as he knew she had tried, and failed, to contact the remaining goddess of the Triumvirate. He sighed, and loudly coughed, before bowing to the assembled priestesses. "I guess this is my chance to return the favor of caring for me during my period of helplessness. I will defend all of you, and your temple, from this blasphemous soon to be interloper. Can I speak with the high priestess for a moment? I doubt he will be arriving immediately."<br/><br/>Once inside with the high priestess, he asked if she had any weapons he could use, though he assured her that he would refrain from killing any of the approaching liontaurs. He understood that the Wife, who they followed, only fought to protect her lands and people, so was trying to reassure her.
