With the oncoming approach of a heavy storm, the inhabitants of Boreal Port had begun to close their shops early to avoid getting their wares soaked by the rain. While everyone around scurried to the nearest open building they can find, only one was unfazed by the change of its atmosphere. In fact, Titanica happens to enjoy nights like these, seeing how she's not bothered by any passer byers or the knights of the Order wishing to slay or have sex with her upon her very existence once she steps foot out of the port's boundaries. This is one reason she usually remains in the ocean for long periods of time, not wishing to be bothered by these mere annoyances. Of course, she could eliminate them with one puff of her breath, but that would only be a waste of precious energy. After all, their work in some sense is valid when against demons, but most she came across were... well pathetic.

But on nights like these, Titanica is free to walk about on land for her weekly excursion. She doesn't always have a specific goal really, not even doing tasks like going to the market or killing demons, rather it's just to gain a sense of how much has changed since her awakening. For having slept for millions upon millions of years, she has missed a lot of events that had transpired. Already it's been awhile since she walked far from the port, as the last time she did she reached the second intersection leading north to the town of Mahigan, and prior to it she checked the first intersection leading to Sonarra. However, she never was able to reach these settlements, and the only buildings she discovered were decrepit structures, long since abandoned. 

Yet tonight, Titanica has strayed even further from the port and had found herself at the third intersection. She has been farther than this in the past, but only reaching until the fourth three-way intersection before turning back. However, something is different in this intersection. She remembers this branching path to lead to another abandoned building that has also been abandoned for some time. It was dark and in rough condition, filled only with despair. But now, that building is filled with a bright light coming from inside. Someone - no, several somebodies at least - had the time to restore the building somewhat and made a home here. Titanica couldn't help but to wonder who had taken residence here and decides to inspect the building.

As she slowly makes her way towards the entrance, she immediately catches the sense of other individuals darting around in the nearby darkness. She stops dead in her tracks, reaching only halfway to the entrance, still enveloped in the darkness surrounding her. Her keen sense of smell, reminiscent of her primal heritage, was also quick to confirm that she wasn't alone outside. Titanica believed at first that they were some sort of sentries guarding the door, but her senses became clear that these figures didn't seem to be a part of whatever was going on inside. Are they Order Knights that happened to have followed her here? They seemed too quiet and sneaky to be such individuals. Whoever they are, they're uninvited and more than likely here to cause mischief. 

The figure's lips begin to curl in annoyance as she looks around for these foes, her dorsal spines beginning to cackle in a cold blue hue, sparking up at random. One burst of her fiery breath should be able to scare these intruders off, but she didn't want to disturb the folks inside nor to waste energy or risk damaging the building. Then again, these intruders weren't simply hiding in the trees around the building, but also around the building and on it's roof. It appears they're trying to find a way to break in. Realizing fully well of the results of her actions, Titanica's inhales as much air as she can muster and unleashes a [url=https://youtu.be/pXQzsl_iVB0?t=3m13s]deafening roar[/url] as an attempt to both scare the intruders off and perhaps catch a better glance at who they might be under the mask of darkness. Her presence will be known to those inside, yes, but what does it matter when she's trying to help the innocent be free of ominous intent.

And Titanica hasn't done that in a long while either.
