Lexis smiled, as she watched Lilith, she knew that it would be a good journey. Perhaps a new friendship would ensue from this.
It was starting to get darker, night time was finally here. Lexis and Lilith had shared minor adventure stories nothing more than that. From a far was an inn, Lexis had guided her finger to point at the inn. "Look." She turned to look at Lilith, "Do we make shelter for the night? In Treset its always dangerous at night...you should know we did pack a mighty fight yesterday"

Lilith followed Lexis' finger and thought a moment. She didn't like to linger in one area for too long, and she had already rested here. But that blood magick did wear her out considerably. With a small sigh, she nodded. "Yes, perhaps a proper night of resting would be a good idea."
It was a simple building, with gaudy decor, remarked Lilith upon entering. Still, it seemed safer than outside. She glanced around as they made their way to the clerk behind the counter. She beamed at them as asked, "One room, or two?"

"One" Lexis answered quickly, "Make it your finest" She smirked as she looked at Lilith, as they were given a room key. She looked at Lilith as she urged her to go on ahead. She wasn't sure if she just specifying one room, was well given in this hotel, considering she had never spent a night at the hotel. It wasn't much a couple of tacky portraits posted on the wall, decor that wasn't changed in probably over 20 years. But despite all its glorified tackiness they had a place to spend the night.

Confused at why Lexis wanted just one room, she found herself being dragged to the room. Upon entering it, she felt suddenly very drowsy. Oh my, I hadn't realized just how worn out I really am. Perhaps it wasn't such a terrible idea to stop for the night. She placed her pack on the floor and fell into a chair.

There was a bed and a couch. Lexis entered as she noticed the room and its size. "I only wanted a single room, its cheaper, and that way we can pay for it half and half while we save enough money." She said as she threw herself on the couch, crossing a leg over the other. "You can get the bed."

Lilith shook her head. "I appreciate the offer, but I prefer to sleep outdoors. Enjoy your night. I shall see you in the morning." With that, she lifted herself off the chair, her pack in hand, and headed for the exit. Once she was outside, she felt alert and more comfortable. She never allowed herself the luxuries of a good night's sleep, or fluffy beds, with down-filled covers; too many times had she tried to sleep over two hours, only to have her emotions take over and destroy everything around her. She leaned against the back of the Inn and closed her eyes.

She watched the woman leave, however; she wasn't about to discuss it with her. It was perhaps a preference and she wasn't the type to judge. She laid on her bed as she watched the light of the room candle flicker, her eyes batted as she felt the wave of tiredness wash over her. She didn't budge, the bed remained empty. That night all Lexis saw were dreams. Many dreams...all of ages passed.
She was by her. The Queen. The one person she found herself ever truly happy, especially when it meant that she was by her side. Then the shadows began to surface Cyllaron, it was then all simply changed, especially for Lexis. It was night time, and the youngest son of the Queen was Marikai, it was a simple task to guard the 7 year old boy. At least until he was done collecting his rocks. A simply task in which Lexis failed miserably. One second her head was spinning, and the next she was by the Queen's youngest son's limp body within her arms. She held him firmly. His blood covering her armor, and pooling around her. She was framed...all this was an illusion. This couldn't have possibly been her doing. "AAAH! My son!" that voice...she looked up as her face was shocked. "Its not me"
She opened her eyes...the same dream for the passed 7 years. Still she yearned for her Queen. "Why most you pain me so?"

Lilith drifted in and out of sleep, as she usually did, and she didn't mind. She remained against the back of the building, if not to sleep, then simply to rest. She'd done her best to keep her mind clear, which was becoming easier and easier with each passing month. She wasn't sure how long she'd been out, because the sun's warm fingers caressed her cheek, causing her eyes to flutter open. Golden light brightened the world, and Lilith felt a peace wash over her. A small smile tugged at the corners of her mouth, and she felt renewed for her new quest; bring the woman named Lexis to her destination. Lexis. She didn't seem to be too much trouble, not that Lilith noticed. And she certainly wasn't very nosey, or controlling, which Lilith liked. Perhaps this will not be as tedious as I thought, so long as she keeps out of by affairs, and doesn't try to involve me in hers. She was about to prepare to leave, then realized that perhaps her companion might still be asleep. Realizing that she had no real way of knowing, short of knocking on the room door and waking Lexis, she would just have to sit outside and wait. Which she didn't mind at all. She reached in to her pack and pulled out the remaining little piece of bread. "I will definitely need supplies." she thought aloud, which reminded her of the battle from the night before. "And perhaps a blade."

Lexis seemed to have been awake for quite sometime, she took the Hotel's exit only to see Lilith waiting for her. "Well good morning!" She smiled her voice a soft echo. She proceeded towards her, her feet pressing against the soft moist dirt. "Did you sleep well? I didn't sleep in the bed to make it fair for the both of us"

Lilith was confused by the last statement, but chose to ignore it. "I rested well, thank you. Are you ready to go? I believe we have quite the journey ahead of us, and the sooner we head out, the sooner I can get the supplies I require, assuming the next village has them." She dusted herself off and gestured to the road, "After you."

Lexis nodded, she continued on ward as she began heading North, North was more by the edge of the nearest Port town, "the nearest port town should have the stuff you need" She said as she looked at her, "...a stick isn't generally the best weapon to defend yourself with especially if we'll be traveling for a while"

A soft grin upon her face, Lilith nodded. "Yes, I know. Worry not, I have already considering buying something a little more violent. I do not promise that I will be anything more than rubbish with it, but I will try my best." It seemed that with every passing day, she realized just how much of her training she never managed to complete, much yet learn of. This upset her greatly, not because she wished to be the strongest Mage in the world, but because she wanted to be a Mage in complete control. Without all the proper training, she would forever remain a novice, and a danger to herself, and the world. Sometimes she considered seeking out the enemy, and surrendering to them, in hopes that they would end her misery. But she knew that was a foolish thought. If they wished her dead, they would have taken her life that night. They would have left her family alone and gone after her. Her aura, now clearly visible, glowed purple as she walked along the road. It would seem that her emotions would never be a mystery.

But Lexis would not question her, they each had secrets, and Lexis was more than certain that hers, were something she would rather keep to herself. She continued on. "Don't worry Lilith, I won't question your intentions, so long as out of this journey we can make a decent friendship. She smiled to herself.

Shade padded through the moonlit trees, still stalking the two girls; although only one of them was of any interest to him. He sniffed the air again, eager to catch her scent. One carried the scent of evil, although it wasn't her own. Her soul was stained, but a small light still shone. But the other, her essence was...intoxicating; a mixture of power and emotion. She was simply radiating magic, unbridled and savage. The things he could do with her...Shade shivered with excitement. He kept to the trees, his body low to the ground and completely concealed, and continued to watch the pair. He relished this. The hunt. The fact that they had suspected nothing so far. He had been with them for a while now. Always watching, always out of sight. He may have been massive in his current wolf-like form, but he also knew how to make himself as good as invisible.

Unsure what prompted such a response, Lilith glanced at her companion. "Nor I yours. As for the friendship, I warn you that I do not befriend easily." The early morning sun shone brightly, as the two walked a good while in silence. Occasionally, Lilith would feel uncomfortable and glance back, but that was just her paranoia kicking in. Eventually, a small stream of smoke could be seen on the horizon, and Lilith felt relief wash over her; the town was close. "So, what do you know of this port town?" This was her first attempt at friendly chit-chat.
