Nyla, your friendly neighborhood baker Temple [@PaulHaynek][@AzureKnight] [hr] Thanking him for his understanding, Nyla fell in line behind Oja, and for most of the trip she'd remain quiet. Thankfully, the trip proved mostly uneventful, aside from passing pleasantries and idle chatter of which, she'd elect not to participate in actively. Only listen. And it was during this listening, that Oja asked both her and Kirei a question, to which Kirei would respond quite...tactlessly, in her opinion. She didn't know the reasons herself either, at least until Oja told them a little of the history, but one should always be delicate around such topics. [color=a187be]"None taken, Lord Oja, and I'm sure Sir Kirei meant nothing by it."[/color] Nyla responded. [color=a187be]"Yokai are not known for being entirely...agreeable. That is not something I will deny or even hide. Even I myself have..."[/color] She'd pause. She probably shouldn't mention anything of her past here. Especially the Convent. [i]especially[/i] the Convent. She wondered if there was a temple of some priestesses around here or something. Aaah, she did so love religious wear-wait no stop that she was drooling. [color=a187be]"A-ahem...it was another life, that is all I can say, Lord Oja. Just know that I will serve you as faithfully as I can."[/color] A small pause as she'd glance to the side. [color=a187be]"That said, if you'll indulge me my lord...do you have a favorite food?"[/color] She gave him a mildly hopeful look, intent likely obvious from what she was going to do with that information.
