General Store

Kasei-La shrugged, and walked towards the inn, spotting the red-haired woman through the window. "...Woah, look at the bags under her EYYYYES!"

Taban leads Wesa back into the Inn.

R'ioth stumbled into the general store, trying to find his way through the fog. He glanced around and correctly deduced that this was a store of some sort. "Kierva? KIERVA?" R'ioth shouted, hoping to the gods that someone in here could understand him. "Nala kierva?"

R'ioth turned around and wandered out, cursing the gods as no one answered him. Back into the fog.

Elena huried down the street until she found herself back in the General Store. She went inside and began to look around, trying to see if anything would catch her eye. mainly, though...she was trying to take her midn off of what she'd just seen.

As Hawk started to walk toward the General Store he thought to himself, “What did I say?!”, he shook his head and kept walking. He scared him to see his friends in pain and he not be able to help them.

Upon entering the Store he looked around for someone to talk to, hoping he might find Elena. He spotted her and started to walk toward her.

Elena heard footsteps coming towards her, and she turned to see Hawk, instinctively giving the most hateful glare she didn't even know she could give.

"What? Got bored with Kiya and decided to come after me?" The moment she saw him, she had immediately gone into hostile mode.

When Hawk had caught the look on Elena's face he stopped as quickly as if he had run into a solid wall. "Uh?" He stared at her with a confused look on his face. And then the full meaning and impact of her words hit him and he threw them back at her, "Got BORED with Kiya!? Come after YOU?! What are you talking about? You and Kiya are together. There is nothing between us', he paused..... 'anymore." He looked at Elena with what he hoped was a calm expression and continued "Please, believe me. There. Is. Nothing. Between. Me and Kiyanna Sparrow. I hope you believe me." Then he walked out and decieded to go back to The Blood Diamond

Elena clenched her hands into fists until Hawk was gone, and then let out a breath she hadn't known she'd been holding. She sighed, knowing she'd have to apologize to him sooner or later...but...she had seen them together....hadn't she? She shook her head, rubbed her eyes, and then slowly began heading back to the inn.

Kiya had just left the Inn and was facing toward the store when she saw Hawk leave. Since she did not want to talk to him she ducked back into the Inn and waited for him to pass. She then preceded on toward the store. She was almost to the store when she saw Elena leaving it. "Elena!", she shouted, hoping to catch her friend's attention.

Elena stopped and looked up, spotting Kiya right away. She started to turn away, but decided against it, and, instead, simply stood there and waited for her friend to approach.

Kiya rushed up to Elena and wrapped her in a hug and placed a kiss on her cheek before stepping back, "Where have you been?"

Hawk saw the exchange from the deck of the Blood Diamond and with a huff went into the captain's cabin and slammed the door.

Kiya and Elena strolled around town talking.

Mordor followed a a close distance.
