Ash smiles wryly, and since the man's words- and hopefully intentions- are kind, she refrains from shrugging off his hand. "They believe that the prophecies are given to me demons. I think- I hope- that they are from the Gods." Her gaze slides to the leather book in her lap and on a whim, she flips to the second page and hands it to the man.

Second entry in her journal. The link's in my siggie.

Nero carefully reads over the poem. One time. Twice. Yet another. He wears a serious, yet obviously deep in thought expression throughout it, before reverting to his usual smirk. "I like it." He hands her the journal back. "Whether it's from Gods or Demons I cannot say. But I like it nonetheless." He chuckles a bit and smiles, "The whole Pure Witch thing got me stuck for a moment though... Whichever side she's on, isn't going to be too happy if you're right." He smirks again as he gazes into her eyes, and shrugs. "Whether your a prophet from the heavens or an messenger from below, all I know for sure is you have One. Cute. Face." He chuckles a bit, wearing a sincere, friendly smile.

This time Ash's blush is visibly crimson. "I-um-thank you," she stuttered, looking down. As a priestess, she was not at all used to this... flirtation that Nero was obviously so practiced with. Ash decided to focus on the more serious matter at hand. "And you're right about the Pure Witch. She's involved in something very dangerous, and the prophecy is invaluable to either side... You two won't tell anyone about it, will you?" Her gaze shifted from Nero to Orion and back quickly.

Nero's smirk turns solid as her cheeks turn red, and he gently takes her chin and raises back to eye level. "You priestesses should get out more often." Admiring his handiwork for a moment, he decided to answer her. "Anyways.." Nero shrugs and glances back to Orion to see his look as well. "I really don't have anyone to tell. I'm more of a wanderer myself, so I might stay here for a couple weeks before moving on to whatever place I stumble upon next. This is really just a 'rally' point of sorts for my little adventures." He chuckles as he remembers the outcome of his last adventure, which left him being chased by Yukmen. "You have my word though Ash, I won't tell a soul."

(( OK been busy again all day, so I apologize again for not posting. Anyways, hey Ash, glad you could make it. ))

At the voice, Orion turned to see the young priestess standing before them. While taken aback by her beauty, he made himself keep a neutral gaze, unlike his 'friend' who gaped at her like a fish out of water. As they spoke, he listened quietly to her story, assessing her as he thought. Finding he liked something about her, he gave her a small grin. "As my friend stated, I'm Orion, a pleasure to meet you..." He reached over and shook her hand firmly but gently.

Pulling back, he let them talk for a short time while he glanced occasionally about the tavern, eyeing any new individuals who entered and a couple who left. When she questioned them, he returned his attention to her and actually smiled. "Don't worry, your secrets safe with me as well..." He watched her for several seconds with a cool, intense gaze before speaking again. "Why do you assume you would be safe here, mi'lady? While they probably aren't starting a house to house search, they'll definitely be on the look-out for you, also offering money for information on you..." Glancing about at the people in the tavern, he saw a couple of the figures attempting to avoid his gaze. Turning back to Ash, he continued. "There is undoubtedly one, maybe two people in this very tavern who would be reporting your sighting to a guardsman or somebody who would be looking for you..."

Considering his next words, he looked into her eyes carefully. "Would you need assistance in getting around or out of the city, without being caught? Or would you rather be left to your own devices? I'd be willing to help you, if you would like..." Orion didn't even know why he was wanting to help her, but for once he didn't mind the fact that he hadn't asked for some kind of payment. Mentally shrugging, he waited for her answer.

Nero Chuckles and turns to face him, talking in a lowered, almost taunting voice, "Does the thief have a soft side to his darkened soul? I don't see how this could possibly result in cash for you.." His smirk remained as his thoughts turned to the more somber possibility of him taking her and using her for his own gain. His gaze reflected the darker thoughts going through his head, before he turned back to face Ash with his usual cheery demeanor.

Orion glanced at Nero for a split second, anger at the obviously taunting. Reaching over for his mug of ale, he took another sip from it as he glared at Nero. Finally after several seconds, he set the mug down and returned his attention to Ash, the anger replaced by his neutral gaze again.

(( I think I'd be on Nero's side if I was there for the shortest time... but sense I know what Orion's doing, I know it be incorrect haha. ))

Ash mumbled thanks to the men, then shook her head slightly at Orion's words. "You do not know what you are offering. When it comes to religious affairs- and in their views, I might as well have commited treason- the church does not hesitate to kill or at the very least arrest those who go against it. You helping me would be... unwise." Ash's hands curled tight around her leather journal, but that was the only sign of weakness or fear that she allowed herself to show.

Sorry for the wait, guys!

Nero smirks and pats her on the shoulder. "It's not like you're forcing us into anything. I can't quite speak for Orion here, but you've got me pretty damn interested in this entire thing. Can't expect me to drop the story here, can you?" His smirk gleams and his entire appearance radiates with the eagerness and excitement that's abound in his mind. This just sounds better and better... The thrill dims for a moment however. "But, he is right on one point, we shouldn't dwell around here. If the church is looking for you, I don't think anywhere in the city is truly safe..." He chuckles, "I'm not the expert on this place though. Orion on the other hand..."

OOCIt's all good :P I just got home myself so perfect timing >:D PS. I think if/when we do move out, we should make a new thread (with the season change and all)

ooc: Fine with me. :)

bic:

"I-" Ash started, but quickly dropped her protest. "Thank you. Thank you both. And you are correct; it would be best to leave as soon as possible." She was greatful that she had left her speedy mare by the back entrance of the tavern rather than the front. Otherwise, she might have found herself without a mount to escape on when she left the tavern.
