Krysanthia was surprised, albeit pleasantly so, when the other Rito took the fiasco so well. She had a nice laugh and easy smile that reminded her of Anaria and helped ease her worries somewhat. However, she could not help but outwardly cringe to hear the cost of the food, even though the other was so ready to forgive her. Krysanthia estimated those were low prices indeed especially for festival food of such quality, not too mention the chef's work reminded her of Akaala and better days. But now Krysanthia was wearing maybe a few plates worth of the fine cuisine and in her head she owed a debt now. She also was trying hard not to selfishly dwell on how she had already ruined the fine clothes that had cost her nearly every rupee she had, or to burst into tears like a child.

[b]"Please, you must at least let me compensate you. I have-"[/b] Krysanthia's bright red crest shot up in alarm and then drooped down again as she reached for her things only to realize her pack wasn't with her. [b]"I have forgotten my rupees in my room."[/b] she finished awkwardly, trying to think of a way to salvage the situation, even though the chef seemed to feel there was no need. [b]"Um, perhaps a written IOU? Or I can take you to where I'm staying to fetch my purse. My name is Krysanthia Runai, I'm a medic in training at the military barracks, my master can vouch for me."[/b]

Krysanthia noticed what looked like another healer weaving through the crowd towards the tournament ground she could no longer see, having forgotten she was still on her knees in the dirt. Had something else just happened? Or was the wounded man she saw earlier worse off than he had first looked? Krysanthia fought the overwhelming instinct to run to the fighters aid. There were already registered healers around for this very thing. Besides, she first had to deal with the problem she had caused. [b]"What is your name, ma'am, er, miss? Sorry..."[/b] Krysanthia herself was probably more of a ma'am than this talented young chef, but not knowing who she was she faltered with the honorifics.
