[color=0054a6]Adalia listened as they walked towards her mansion. [color=ed145b]“It’s quite fascinating that someone can use their own rage to become stronger, even if they do lose their minds.”[/color] She said with a small nod. [color=ed145b]“I have heard of it and seen it before, but I didn’t know much about it. I understand it a bit better now after you have explained it. But since it also takes their minds away, it seems like it’s a trade. Keep your control, but gain no powers, or let go of your control, and gain a lot of power.”[/color] She said. She thought it was interesting how people could use different ways to get stronger, but of course, she didn’t like when there were downsides to it. She knew that only in a perfect world, would it be possible to gain something without giving something, and even though her invented gloves did just that, it had taken a long time and a lot of experimentation to construct them and make sure they functioned properly. This glove and the mana shards were the only inventions they had managed to finish and get to function in their desired ways, even though they didn’t know the full effect of the mana shards just yet. [color=ed145b]“Let me know what you think of it when you’ve tried it. If you don’t like it, I won’t mind taking it back again.”[/color] She said with a smile. Adalia smiled [color=ed145b]“And I’m the leader of a city. I think I know what kind of responsibility rests on your shoulders.” [/color]She said softly. [color=ed145b]“You have a right to push yourself as hard as you want too, but you will die from pushing one day, and it won’t feel like it’s the right way to go. However, it’s not for me to tell you how to live your life, I can only speak my mind and hope that you will take some of it into consideration.”[/color] She smiled. [color=ed145b]“I would hate to see you go down because of your health.” [/color]She moved her arms behind her own back gently, folding her hands together there as they walked. [color=ed145b]“Just remember that most people should always have time to experience life to the fullest. I know you don’t have a family or anyone special, or you wouldn’t have been able to come as fast as you did to help us, and I’m not saying you need to have that, but even someone like you, needs something to relieve yourself from the stress sometimes.”[/color] Adalia looked over at her and gave her a small wink. She wasn’t a woman who spoke directly what was on her mind, especially not when it came to privacy pleasure, in this case, sexual pleasure. She didn’t mean that Chalsea had to have a man or a woman to go to bed with, but the feeling of letting go and feel the waves of pleasure coming through your body, was healthy, and Chalsea had to remember to get that feeling once in a while. Though Adalia was unsure whether or not Chalsea actually was interested in those kinds of feelings and acts, but she supposed that someone like her, a warrior and a tough one, could like those moments a lot, especially if it was on the wild side. She shook her head a bit, clearing her minds of those thoughts now before she looked at her again, giggling a little at how Chalsea now swung her imaginary waraxe to show that she relaxed in combat. [color=ed145b]“Well it depends on what kind of battle you are fighting. Some battlefields do require planning on logistics, but I get what you mean, and I suppose it’s a good way for a warband to relieve some stress once in a while.”[/color] She smiled at her. Whether or not it would be healthy in the long run, Adalia wasn’t sure about, but if Chalsea wanted to do it like that, then she wouldn’t get in her way, she just hoped she wouldn’t get herself killed because she relaxed too much during a battle, and not having thought about the consequence of her actions. She looked to Chalsea’s hand as the ring rejected the glove. It was a bit odd, but she supposed some magical items naturally wouldn’t like each other, so there was no reason to worry because of that. [color=ed145b]“Just try it when you have time, and let me know what you think of the effects.” [/color]She smiled. Now they were finally at the mansion and once they got inside, Rose Tyre was passing through the entrance hall. She stopped up with a cup of tea in her hands, dressed in a black nightgown that went down to her knees. She smiled at Adalia [color=f6989d]“Welcome home Milady. Thank you again for letting me stay here.”[/color] She smiled, giving a small courtesy. Then she looked to Chalsea [color=f6989d]“Welcome back Ms. Chalsea, don’t let me keep you here.”[/color] She said to them both, and walked off into the living room of the mansion. She was a beautiful woman as well, it seemed that the White Stone City had a lot of those walking around, and right now, there were two of them in the same mansion, Adalia and Rose Tyre. Of course, Adalia thought, Chalsea was beautiful as well, but she wasn’t a citizen of the White Stone City, so she didn’t count that into the thought. Adalia looked to Chalsea with a smile [color=ed145b]“She will live here from now on as well. A long story, one that I do not wish to share, as it is her privacy. But she is a good woman.” [/color]She smiled. [color=ed145b]“Now if you’ll excuse me, I will go to my room and shower before I get some rest. You should do the same.”[/color] She smiled at Chalsea. With that, she walked up the stairs in the entrance hall, her hips swaying alluringly but naturally, as she walked up the stairs and down the hall to her own room. Inside, she walked to her own private bathroom, the one that Chalsea and Adalia had shared was also a private one, but it was bigger and not in Adalia’s room, and undressed. She sat down in the bathtub, lit a few candles next to her and enjoyed the warm bath soaking her skin. After about an hour, she was finished with everything; bathing, cleaning and drying, and was lying in her own bed with dark blue silk sheets and covers, and in a light purple night gown and panties. She wasn’t sure if she was going to be able to sleep, but at least she could now relax in the bed. [/color]
