Larel's eyes twitched as he heard the galloping, he didn't open his eyes trying to figure out what exactly the noise was. The images were still playing in his head but at the very lest he was semi-conscious and aware the noises weren't in his dreams. It wasn't until a bit of time had passed that he opened his eyes a yellow glow coming from them as he peered through the darkness, he had picked up the movements of Ovorion's men and was trying to figure out what was going on to make that much noise this late at night, a part of him wondered if it was bandits but that thought was put aside as he realized that both Mera and Hotaru were missing from the room. He immediately grabbed his sword cursing himself for going back to sleep and started to move towards the voices downstairs, but just as he was about to reach for the door a hand grabbed him and yanked him back. He peered up to meet the red eyes of Alari who just shook his head, Larel forced himself out of Alari's light hold and glared at him opening his mouth to speak but Alari covered it and brought a fingers to his lips knowing Larel could see it. Once he was positive Larel would remain quiet he pointed down as a silent indication to stay in the room before going out the window, Larel watched him leave his grip tightening on his sheath Alari stared at his medicine box as he noticed a small doll on top of it, reaching down he picked it up to see it was a good luck charm he taught Kaori how to make, he smiled a little seeing he had been working so diligently on them, it even had a small glasses on it, but it's creator was nowhere to be seen. Alari set the doll down remembering the ill feeling he had earlier, seeing Kaori was absent from the room caused that feeling to return, especially since he couldn't find any trace of where he went. He decided to go out and look for him, Mera and the others were already gone so at the very least they were safe and this Ovorion seemed to be only looking for people who knew about gypsies, aside from that he was just being obtrusive. Alari started to leave but noticed the shadows near him move, he turned towards the movement to see Larel staring back at him, he noticed his eyes were narrowed at him and he was pretty sure he understood what he was trying to ask, he wanted answers to what was going on and figured he had something to do with it. With a sigh Alari made a motion with his hand to follow before moving out the window, Larel followed Alari eventually ending up on the roof of the inn, he noticed Alari on his stomach and lied next to him. "Okay so what's going on?" Larel said keeping his voice low. Alari wrote in his notebook before holding it out to Larel, it seemed he didn't want to speak at all. [b]That man is looking for Mera, I'll go ahead and tell you that Mera should be safe.[/b] Larel took the notebook and his writing utensil before writing his message down and showing it to him. [b]"What happened to Mera-sama? What did you do?![/b] Alari shook his head and took the notebook back glad he was at least willing to communication like this. [b]"I didn't do anything I just go back, I know you don't trust me but at the very least pay attention. Avoiding engaging the large man looking around, innocent lives could be put in danger if you do. Don't let him know you know Mera or any gypsies, and try to find Hotaru, she needs to know this too."[/b] [b]"Why should I listen to you?"[/b] [b]"You'll endanger Mera and Hotaru's lives if you act without thinking."[/b] Larel seemed to hesitate for a moment but with a bit of reluctance he wrote his next message handing the notebook back to him [b]"Fine but if Mera-sama is harmed in anyway, I will end you."[/b] Alari offered a nod and moving back fell into the shadows before moving away from the area, Larel glanced in the direction he went before slinking into his own shadow rising out of the shadow between the buildings. Larel decided to just find Hotaru, he could do that at least while trying to wrap his head around what was happening.
