[center][h2]Falkran[/h2][/center] [center][@PaulHaynek][/center] [color=lightblue]"Oh-ho~? Well aren't you the honest one."[/color] Vanessa gingerly stated after hearing Iskah's rather... [i]Direct[/i] plan for the Dark Mage. It earned the lizardman a slight tickling from the other monster who was sitting behind her. When the topic of the Knights they were going to meet having access to magic and wards that could [i]deal[/i] with beings like Vanessa though... The Dark Mage's eyes lit up and were filled with sparkles and stars. [color=lightblue]"You don' say? That sounds interestesting... Very interesting. I can't wait to meet them, mhmhmhm~"[/color] She responded, giggling nefariously in an unpleasantly excited way. She was also giving Iskah a slightly tighter reverse hug now, which caused her to squeeze even closer to the other girl. The ride itself was uneventful and, as one would usually find travel in undeveloped lands, mundane and rather boring. There was nothing much to see other than the landscape, and such scenery could be found almost anywhere. If there'd be anything interesting along the way, such as giant magic crystals growing out of the ground or large, house-sized mushrooms of different varieties, then maybe Vanessa would've paid more attention to their surroundings. Alas, there was not but grass and tree and rock... And the feeling of subsiding demonic energies which were getting thinner and thinner as they left Falkran behind. The Dark Mage remained silent though, other then her occasional teasing of Iskah by either poking, tickling or blowing in the lizardman's ear... Just to breakl up the monotony of travel, of course. [center][h2]Sinjid[/h2][/center] [color=lightblue]"Hm, so you say this is where your Prince Charming is hanging out... Well, not [i]here-[/i]here, but inside these borders? "[/color] Vanessa commented, looking around as they trotted into town and got many-a looks from the locals. Most of which weren't too pleasant. [color=lightblue]"Don't worry about me, I'm good to keep moving for another few hours, and the same goes for our friend."[/color] She patted the horse on its back. [color=lightblue]"After all, as long as [i]I[/i] still have magic energy, he won't get be tiring anytime soon."[/color] She replied. The truth was, the Dark Mage was more interested in reaching these Lot Knights than anything else. Not to meet with Iskah's dream-boat or help her complete her quest or whatever, but more so because she was interested in those supposed anti-monster magics, spells and wards that the lizard-girl had mentioned. Plus, while the people here might not be opently hostile to their kind, the thought of sleeping in a location where everyone would be keeping an eye on them or spying, or worse, wasn't exactly giving the Dark Mage a lot of confidence that they'd be able to actually [i]rest[/i]. She'd rather camp out or find some abandoned shack or something on the road, with no prying, suspiscious locals who weren't going to try and passive-aggressively watch their every move. JEez, these humans could be such a handful sometimes. Oh well, at least they weren't a part of The Order anymore, so that was a step in the right direction. Perhaps in a hundred years or so, she could come back and see if things had changed for the better even more in this place.
