<br/><strong>Zae'el Ras'kar</strong>(https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=267118.msg13175981#msg13175981)<br/><em>Tiefling Monk lv. 1</em><br/><br/><strong>Location</strong>: Emperor's Flagon - vip room<br/><strong>Tagging</strong>: everyone<br/><hr/><br/>Zae'el continued to play the flute softly as the others spiraled further and further toward blacking out completely. He didn't make much of an effort to be flashy anymore, just playing to relax himself more than anything. However he stopped the music and rose a brow when suddenly the green haired woman flopped out her long pants snake and let it flop out onto the table for all to marvel at, "oh my, I'm not gonna lie I wasn't expecting that" he mused, watching as the two danced, Malaki's trouser snake flailing and wagging around boldly, Zae'el still wondering how and where she had kept that thing hidden.<br/><br/>Unfortunately they didn't have much time to play with the girl's pants snake, as the nobleman announced they would all be provided rooms to stay in as long as they were in his service, "That's quite generous, especially to make such arrangements on such short notice" the muttered, a small tinge of suspicion in the back of his mind but he showed his gratitude never the less. As the others began heading off for bed Zae'el made his way around the table and gave each one of his companions a parting kiss on the cheek, save for Lhii and Malaki as they were not fully part of the group yet, before heading off himself, "sleep well everyone" he cooed.<br/><br/>When he made it to his room he took the time to make a quick sweep of it, checking over everything carefully to see if anything was booby-trapped or suspicious in any way. However everything seemed to be legitimate, Hyscrown had even gone so far as to prepare a chest full of gear for him. The boy marveled as he opened the chest and found a traditional Kara-Tur jiang sword inside, the boy nimbly swinging and spinning it from hand to hand as he tested it's weight and balance, only needed a few seconds of waving it around before it already felt like an extension of his own body. In addition there was a traveler's kit and a collection of darts as well, everything he'd need to go proper adventuring. He wondered if the others had received similar gifts, but he supposed he'd have to ask them in the morning, all of them at different levels of shit facement. Zae'el opened up his window and gazed out towards the sea, it was a beautiful view, one that made him think to his homeland that rested just beyond that sea. Heaving a sigh Zae'el climbed out the window and swung upward, scaling the side of the inn with ease and finding himself up on the roof. It was there that he camped out for the night, preferring the view of the stars over a ceiling, the firmness of the roof agreeing with his back far more than a soft bed would. Before he drifted off the young monk fished into his bag and produced a small leather bound journal. Ever since he had been exiled he had decided to keep a record of his journeys, thinking it might be useful one day if he tried to return to his homeland. He spent the next hour or so jotting down what had transpired, noting the new friends they had made and their unique quirks, as well as expressing his hopes and concerns for this new agreement they had found themselves in with this noble fellow. He was optimistic things would turn out alright though, after all it was better to hope than assume the worst no? Though even with all that had happened to do, Zae'el found himself writing about Aelen most prominently of all, and was actually in the middle of doodling a little picture of their kiss when he finally slipped in sleep for the night.<br/><br/><em>...it started with a warm kiss that tasted of stew and wine...</em><br/><br/>
