[b]"No. It's fine. Just a personal matter... Nothing I can't handle. But thank you for your concern. I just need to be alone and prepare for certain things."[/b] Meirin wasn't sure what this Haklo wanted from her. Perhaps he was just being friendly, not something she can fault someone for, but she didn't need to be consoled like a victim of a tragedy. No, she just needed to get her mind off recent events. The feast was coming up so she could prepare for that, but for now she would go to her room and meditate.

---Sometime later---

Meirin wondered around the dinning hall. She had spent the last few hours either meditating, going through some of her Weaving forms, or doing laundry. She's largely forgotten about what happened those few hours ago, since it seemed like everything resolved itself. Grey was last seen in the care of the Vitamancers, so he didn't need to be worried about. There wasn't any more attacks or disturbances, so she didn't need to spring into action. And she hasn't heard a peep from Zaad, so she was sure he wasn't causing any trouble. Yes, it was a peaceful night, tensions aside. Meirin was absent-mildly trying to listen into to all the conversations around her when someone crashed into her. She stumbled but managed to stay relatively up. [b]"Oh, sorry."[/b] She turned to see the person she ran into, and to her surprise it wasn't a complete stranger. Taking his hand she got to her feet and recognized the person as the man who was attacked by a bear earlier today. Seemed like he recovered from the attack and was lucid enough to remember her face.

[b]"It was nothing that no one else wouldn't have done. I was simply the closes one. My name is Meirin Kurenai. I don't think I ever got your name."[/b]
