[center][h3][color=mediumpurple]Mila[/color][/h3] [@Deos Morran][/center] After making her statement, she'd paused for a moment before she turned on her heel with a bit of dramatic flourish before leaving the strange room behind. All she wanted was to get back home. Besides, she had work that night and she [b]did[/b] want to visit her family. Fortunately, she didn't tell them of her intentions. If she did, she was sure her older brother would demand he come with her if he couldn't talk her out of it. Besides, having to return empty-handed to an expectant/hopeful family would be a HUGE blow to her ego. It was as she was leaving that she heard the sound of footsteps coming up from behind her. She heard them speak and introduce themselves but didn't respond yet. And it was right as she emerged from the temple that she whirled to face them. Taking a moment, she let her eyes roam over him in curiosity. The last area they were in was a bit dark after the artifact burst so she didn't get a good look at anyone. But Ariah? She liked. Finally bringing her eyes back up to his face, she responded. [color=mediumpurple]"Oh, I know who you are. You know, the whole strange mind... thing. Regardless, it's a true pleasure. I am Mila."[/color] She could hear the charm he added to his voice to try and 'sweet-talk' her. Having done the same thing in her own line of work, she wasn't surprised by it and could pick up on it pretty well. It was... cute. Motioning for him to follow, she took off in the direction of her boat without looking behind her. He would follow.
