Larel stayed near Hotaru at least until he heard she was alright, a small relieved sigh escaped from him before he stood up but he stopped hearing her speak again. He took a look around the room as well noting the damage in it, they were probably going to be blamed for it later but that was another matter to attend too when it came too it. He wasn't sure how to answer the other question about Mary and Mera, Mary was back at least and Mera had to deal with some verbal abuse but with Mary back he was sure she was at the very least relieved though he was sure she wasn't fully recovered yet. Larel didn't say it but he noticed that Hotaru seemed a bit tired, after everything that just happened he couldn't really blame her. "Far as I know they're okay at the moment," Larel said looking over at Hotaru. "Mera-sama ran up shoving Alari and me out of the way so she has the energy to move that fast I'm sure she's okay at least physically. Sybil crossed some lines though mostly about her family and Mary, Mera-sama held back as much as she could when she did anyway." Larel rested his sword against his torso and ran his hand through his hair, their quiet evening was ruined in a moment, it was a bit too nostalgic for it's own good and he knew Zenmaru was smiling in his head at his thoughts on the matter. "She didn't say much about you, she did mention your fear of having too much blood in you and how you want to be human again," Larel said closing his eyes. "Personally I'd rather not speak of Sybil's words, true or not nothing good comes from it." Larel's eyebrows drew down a little bit at the very thought of it but his expression relaxed moments later and he looked back over at Hotaru. "Why don't you try to rest Hotaru, we can play GO another time," Larel said. "You seem a little tired, if you need darkness for that..." Larel held up his hand and flexed it causing purple energy to hover around his hand, it was his own darkness instead of Zenmaru's but the offer was the same. "I can help with that, if you want." Alari remained quiet leaning against the wall his arms crossed over his chest, his eyes drooped a little as a slightly worried expression showed itself on his face. He could hear Mera and Mary in the room directly next to him, and he admitted he felt a little bad for what he was doing. He knew it wasn't polite to eavesdrop and he said he was going to leave the two of them alone but he couldn't help but worry a little, by time he came fully to his senses he was standing next to the door and figured he may as well make sure. He did lean off the wall when they mentioned taking care of the demons, walking away from the door knowing he shouldn't linger too long, he got enough confirmation that they were okay or as much as possible considering the circumstances. Alari walked down the stairs and out of the inn, he stopped and glanced back at the building for a moment. He told Kaori to keep an eye out for anything suspicious and gave him a talisman that would act as a signal for Alari should things turn, Alari pulled out the other half of the talisman before shoving it back in his sleeve confirming it was active. Folding his hands behind his back he made his way towards the gate of the village, he would be watching the three for the rest of the night he was aware of that at least which meant he needed to take care of things. "I shall return soon." Hiroyuki and Naria stopped as their floating travelling companion spoke to them, Hiroyuki arched a brow at the cloaked woman staring at the mask of the old man he believed it was called a Kojyo mask but he wasn't fully sure. Looking at the mask Hiroyuki wasn't sure why he bothered trying to see her expression since it was hidden anyway. Naria shrugged at the information and continued walking seemingly alright with the idea, for the most part she didn't intend on stopping just because one of them left, Hiroyuki was sure she would keep walking if he was cut down right in front of her and sadly he'd be correct. "Alright...uh...be safe," Hiroyuki said and watched as the woman vanished. He turned and caught up to Naria before walking alongside her, she twirled her umbrella a few times the sounds of their footsteps on the dirt road being the only sound in the area, even the insects seemed silent making the silence between them almost deafening seeing as Naria didn't like talking. Hiroyuki glanced over at Naria wondering if he should say something, he hadn't been travelling with her that long but he found she was pretty quiet when she wasn't very talkative at least most of the time, and honestly that hidden sword of hers bothered him, the speed she could draw that thing would beat his draw if he didn't pay attention. "I don't know why you told her that," Naria said breaking the silence. "It's not like she's human so there's no reason to tell her to be safe." "You think so?" "...she was floating and she hides her face behind a mask, her entire body except her feet is covered in a long white cloak, and she spouts random bit of information that make no sense half the time, do you know any humans who go around like that?" "I suppose that makes sense...do you think she's a Youkai?" "No.....I'm not sure why...but it doesn't feel like she is but she has information on Alari so I don't mind if she stays around, I'd feel the same even if she was one." Hiroyuki offered a small nod and the two continued on their way, that was the reason they let her come with them she had answers that both of them wanted.
