The reddish tint of the town made Caelyn stick out like a sore thumb.  With her hair and robe bothing being blue, she seemed very out of place.  Word had spread to her about a week long festival being held in Seles. The festival was to honor those distant heroes of course.  This event would attract many people.  Hopefully she would be able to gather information about the mystic she was seeking.  Caelyn's train of thought was interupted by a large growl.  At first she thought it a fiend, and her hands instinctively tightened around her bardiche.  She soon realized however that the [i]monster[/i] was in fact her stomach.  Caelyn could feel the heat starting to spread to her cheeks, and could only hope no one heard it.  

	Before diving into her investigation about the mystic, Caelyn decided it best to slay this fiend by endulging in some of the festive foods. "Get your smokin' hot chili, fresh from a volcano's ass here!" She could not believe the man's sales pitch! But as crude as it was, the aroma from the man's "ass chili" was indeed delectable. [i]Ah, why not?[/i] Caelyn thought to herself. "I'll be takin' a bowl if ye do no' mind.  How much?" Caelyn did her best to do a smile for the man, but he was just down right repulsive. "Fer a pretty thing like you?  It's on the house!  Careful though, those icey blue eyes may make this here chili cold before you get a bite." He threw a little wink at her at the end of the sentence just to reinforce that he had hit on Caelyn.  After perhaps the biggest inner battle she ever faced, Caelyn managed not to throttle the guy.  She even told the man thank you for the food. 
	
	The chili was amazing!  Caelyn's affinity with ice and water however did nothing to dilude the heat from the chili!  My how her mouth burned!  Caelyn got up from eating just to get hit with some kind of shockwave.  Her ears immediately started ringing.  After extending her jaw a few times, her ears finally popped and alleviated some of the noise. [i]I better go investigate the source of that noise, someone could be in real trouble.[/i] Caelyn thought to herself as she scurried through the crowd.  She came upon the scene in time to see three men arrested and hearing a fancy dressed noble proclaiming about a woman being his maid.  To her surprise the guard captain of Seles was a woman.  She couldn't help but smile.  It made her think back to her foster dad being in the town guard back home.  

	One of the guys involved in the brawl received a pretty nice little gash.  The woman was looking him over for injuries when Caelyn noticed a guy covered in dirt standing there turned in on himself it seemed.  "Are ye alright?  What happen'd here?  Are ye needin' any medical assistance?"  She knew the situation was mostly handled, but still wanted to help anyway she could.  Caelyn started dusting off the man. Then she looked him over for injuries.  He did not appear to have any, so she examined his face. She saw his soft features on his face and his freckles.  He seemed exhausted and if the questions didn't pull him from his thoughts then surely being dusted off would!  "Sorry for all the questions.  Mah name is Caelyn."  She extended her hand in friendship.
