Sukki jumped in surprise, quite literally leaping up into the air and latching onto a wooden beam, the further on her tail standing up on end as she glared down at Manna with narrow catlike eyes. " Dinner! " she hissed, her heart pounding but calming as she determined this person seemed safe.

The cat looked carefully at the pad of paper, as if considering. " Do you have fish? Fresh fish? " She purred. " Or shark! Give me a shark! Big and mean and tasty! "

She let go of the ceiling, and landed deftly on her feet in front of Manna, clasping her hands behind her back and letting her tail swing about as she rocked back and forth on her feet.

Kyo looked at Sed Nues. - "I think Qa'Meret will want to stay in the same room as myself, so can I pick for both of us?" - but he still cannot avoid looking at the newcomer, the kid hopes she'll be a nice person.

Qa'Meret grabbed another of those rolls and started eating it while he waited for Vaeria's replies, with luck she will not feel intimidated by the large group and some already making some questions ,even if they are friendly questions.

John had just purchased the 1st room and calmly places his gear and his sword against the wall. He unclasped his cloak and lay on the bed, it felt nice to finally have proper lodging again, though frankly he could do without it.

-------------------------

Feli followed suite and also withdrew a 5. "I guess room 5 it is then." She chided.

-------------------------

Quietly, Ashnii slowly opened the door to the first room and saw John lying on the bed sleeping. The khajiit girl smiled and approached the bed, carefully lying down next to him.

Chaka got another roll and started to slowly eat it, not wanting to eat it to fast and savor the taste, a hard thing to do if one eats to fast.  She just listened for now to the buzz of conversations around her, not talking for the moment.  She was a hungrier then she thought she had been before.  

Walker just rested a bit, eating the last bit of the roll he had.

Vaeria looked around shyly, then looked down at the table.
"I...used to be a mercenary that the king hired....but I saw what sort of things he and his retainers were willing to do...so...I guess I want to stop him."
She said softly...

Qa'Meret looked back at her. - "I am glad you were able to follow your heart and to help stop your boss, because there are too many Mercenaries that become blind by the prospect of extra money. So I think you have nothing to be shy about." - he said with a serious, yet friendly, tone of voice.

In the mean time, Kyo returned to his seat and spoke to Qa'Meret. - "I picked a room for us to stay, it will be room number 2."

The adult Khajiit smiled as he nodded. - "Very well, room2 then it is." - he then looked back at Vaeria. - "It might be a good idea if you remain in this Inn, at least for tonight, in hope for things become to become calm again back at the city."

Chaka ate her meal, finishing.  While she waited for desert she went over to pick her room.  She pulled the paper out and looked at it.  

"Looks like I got room 4." Chaka said, folding the paper up.  

----

Walker went over to get the paper to pick his room.  He got the paper and went back to his seat to finish his meal then wait for desert.  He looked at the paper.

"Hmm, I got room 2." he said, "not sure who's in that room but I'll find out after desert." he said.

Vaeria smiled softly, shaking her head.
"It's not...I'm not that good of a person.  Don't think for a moment that I'm some sort of hero or something..."
She said softly, staring at her hand sadly...
________________________________________________________

In a wooded grove outside the town where the others were staying, Eric sat against a tree, staring at his hand and then looking up at the sky with a sigh.
"I...What am I supposed to do...After what I said, I can't go back to them... all the things I said, I wouldn't forgive myself either...  So what should I do..."
He murmured, looking down at the ground before stabbing his hand into the ground with a growl.  Looking back up at the sky, he shook his head and fell back against the tree trunk with a single tear running down his face.
"What would you do...?  You were always the better one at these things... What should I do now...I can't fight alone...but...How can I ever face them again...?"
He sighed, then looked back at his reflection in the steel of his armor, pondering it for a long while.
"Yeah...Guess you're right...I have to try...I have to try to make things right...even if they hate me...even if it will never mend the bridges I broke..."
He said, pushing himself up from his spot and making his way towards the inn...

Qa'Meret smiled at Vaeria. - "I don't think of you as a hero, I don't think none of us could be heroes like those of legends: filled with honesty and only pure thoughts and intentions. But I can say that if you were able to figure out what was going on and to fight against it because it was wrong, then that's reason for you to feel good. You did the right thing pretty lady, and that is always worthy." - The Khajiit rose his glass of mead and took a drink of it in his words for her.

Kyo smiled at Vaeria as well. - "I think you are a nice person, maybe you don't think of yourself as perfect good, but nobody is perfect." - he said as he finished his dinner and started drinking the last of his juice.

Kyo's dragon remained sitting between it's creator and Qa'Meret.

Vaeria nodded a little.
"Right...Thanks"
She murmured shyly...
