"Wow! Carnelian, I love your costume! It's so elegant!"
"Where'd you get the mask? It's so lovely!"
"Carnelian, will you be coming to the party tonight?! I would love to be able to dance with you there!"
"[color=darkred]Oh Dahling, that is so sweet of you! I think I can make it to the party tonight. After all, I did make this costume for the occasion! OHOHOHOHO![/color]"

Ever since Carnelian had come to Mohs Town she had gained a group of admirers (men and women alike), and whenever she wasn't training or resting at the Temple, she was always out and about, allowing the admirers to show her around. It was a good way to learn about the town, and she got to bask in their praises towards her obvious beauty and ladylike mannerisms. Of course there were others in Mohs Town who merely blushed when they looked at her, or looked away, but she pegged them as just being too shy, unlike her admirers. She had noticed the occasional spat between two admirers, but she ignored it in favor of their kindnesses. Her attention did not waver from her admirers...until she heard a familiar voice on the earpiece. 

"[color=red]Everyone! Listen to me! A corrupted gem has gotten past us and is headed your way fast! Be prepared to fight or get out of there! We are on our way but hold it off for as long as possible. I repeat, it is headed for town![/color]" 

Carnelian sighed softly in irritation of the rude one's words. She mumbled quietly to herself "[color=darkred]Now of all times...[/color]" She then stood up from her seat at the cafe table and she excused herself politely to her admirers "[color=darkred]I apologize, Dahlings, but there is something I must attend to. I'll be back with you shortly. Ta ta for now![/color]" The admirers didn't get the chance to try and convince Carnelian to stay, as she hurried off, the kimono not hindering her movements at all. She walked as fast as she was able, without alerting anyone that something was wrong. She was headed off to go and fight off the corrupted gem.
