As she was reciting her prayer, Karen noticed the sound made by the creaky floor of the inn. Eventually the steps stopped in front of her own room and she sensed the air stirring as the door was opened. Karen threw a look at the door with the edge of her sight arc. She recognized the silhouette of the mage fellow who appeared earlier that night.

 [color=f7941d]“From far away indeed… Beyond the ocean to the south, in the lands of vast deserts, where loose clothing is quite fitting. Here the first winter night will have me freeze to death if I appear with the clothes from the lands of my birth. I must say that I’m surprised you’ve seen other followers of Skeitha though. Not many of us still exist.”[/color] Karen replied with a smile turning towards the man.

 Now at this closer distance Karen’s assumptions proved even more evident. She had met mages in the past, even those from far away lands who came to the castle of her master. This precise design of the cloak was hard to forget.[color=f7941d]” But of course, I wouldn’t dare refuse a mage from Florine’s Synod if my memory serves me well. I once saw a envoy of the Synod in my country. Though I must admit, he was just a husk of an old man.”[/color] She added, raising from her place on the floor and gesturing towards the table where there was still some food and the full jug of wine.[color=f7941d]” Care to join me for a drink?”[/color]
 
 [color=f7941d]“Did I by chance woke you up with my chants? If so, I  apologize, but it was kind of hard to sleep with all the noise going on with Lady Buxton and the Slaver. Besides it seemed like a good time to offer a prayer.”[/color] She said, looking the man in his brown eyes. Eyes were the windows to the soul. His gave away the strength of his resolve. He was a man who desired something and was ready to act for it.
 
 Reaching for the jug, Karen poured two cups of wine.[color=f7941d]” So your name is Drasus?”[/color] Karen asked, sliding a cup of wine towards the mage and took a sip form her own cup.[color=f7941d]" Tell me if it's not a problem, what brings you to this plague ridden land?"[/color] She said with calm voice. While any mage was a danger, here at this place she doubted he would cause her harm. He stood to gain nothing from doing so and if mages were known for one thing, that's was that they don't often act without reason.
