Alex slowly followed Okami to the tavern. Though the boy looked to be in a hurry. Nimueh, who sniffed Lupa, did sort of want to race him. Alex could tell that much. She looked anxious enough. But, at the same time, she looked incredibly tired. With her tail low and her slow walk. In fact, after a few minutes, she jumped up on Alex’s shoulders. In the meantime, her master was pondering the concept of a unison form. So far he only managed one form at a time. But his imagination was running amok. Making him wonder how it would look if he had both the material and the fusion form. It was certainly a skill he would have to ask about. But as they entered the Tavern, Okami practically vanished to the back. Only to start serving meals and setting their table.

The sight of serving brought a smile on his face. While he and Okami were probably going to do a very different kind of serving, it still felt good to have a certain kinship with someone. Though, as he saw Okami and Lupa serving, and Samuel cradling his bird, he couldn’t help but wonder why this band would want to scale the tower in the first place. Leave alone being capable of it. Even with something as powerful sounding as the unison form, Okami only reached the 35th place. For Alex, that would have been painfully low. Voicing his concerns, he turned to the priest and asked: [color=00aeef]“Tell me, Samuel, why do you actually want to scale that tower?”[/color] It was a genuine question.

In the meantime, Nimueh had jumped on the table and laid down on her own, fluffy tail. Using it as a very soft pillow. Another sight that made Alex smile, as he himself used Nimueh’s soft tail as a pillow before too.
