Welcome to Gaia! ::

Seamus rolled his eyes and turn toward the inn keeper. "If you don't mind, I would like to stay in 13A and Rachel would like 13B". He picked Rachel up and swung her over his shoulder, leaving the lobby.

Suwako looked at Cyra "oh they have alot to say most are journeyman and have traveled over the world, i've done the same until i got here that is" suwako replied with a bit of a frown

The vampire glanced to Sayomi, the first time he had broken his iron gaze from the door. He was still expressionless but at this point, he knew he needed to calm this one's nerves before anything drastic occurred. Although he hated speaking of himself, he knew that he needed to depend on these people in case of danger so he gave them a little, just to put them all at ease.

"Yes, I am. You needn't worry, I can control my bloodlust. My mission is to educate others to the truth of vampirism and perhaps even educate my kin to control themselves. I feed off of the emotional energy of other beings when I cannot partake in blood by ethical means."

He then glanced over to Suwako.

"To answer your question, no, the rapier is not my only weapon." He then retrieved a fearsome silver dagger from inside his coat. When shined against the light, one could see a red reflection from it.

"This is my blood-letting dagger should I need to feed. As stated before, I am adept at controlling my bloodlust and will only drink if I absolutely must."

He then showed Suwako the inside of his cape. The cape was woolen on the outside and silken on the inside. The fibrous texture of the inner cape suggested other fibers were woven into it.

"Although not traditionally a weapon, this mantle is effective for fencers. The sheen on the inside can shine in the absence of any light therefore providing a distraction. Of course, only if I will it to. It is also rather good at repelling flames which I don't think anyone finds enjoyable to say the least."

When he was finished speaking, he assumed his stoic visage and stiff posture and remained looking at the door.

"Well traveled, no. Well trained, yes"

He looked to Suwako once more.

"Let us just say I've learned everything I know now from a very dear friend of mine,"
his face then broke into a frown, the first bit of emotion he had shown any of them.

"It is of no matter however, what matters is that you are all safe. Diligence is something I've learned to be better at. Mayhaps if I'd shown more, less tragedies would occur, yes?"

He then buried his face in his hands for a moment before assuming the posture.

"i see i'm sorry for your loss then" suwako replied she decided not to touch the issue any more as it was obviously a touchy subject to barth

As Willow approached one of the front windows, a sudden chill ran down her spine. She looked out into the mirky darkness, trying to discern whether her feeling had meant anything. Suddenly, two small red circles of light appeared, reflected by the lights that were on inside. Startled, Willow stumbled back and collided with a chair, which sent her sprawling across the floor.

Bartheyamus snapped from his meditation, quickly and gracefully springing from his stool and kicked it across the room to get it out of his way. He drew his sword and dagger in one fluid motion.

"What's going on?" he asked as he helped Willow up.
