Woden nods and heads off as Derika takes the others around town.
"I'll be sure to practice safe lifting techniques," Thorgr says as they reach their room. He opens the door to the room and walks into it, kicking the door shut. Gently, he places Frostine on the bed.
She yawns again as her dress changes into a short, light blue, nightie. Looking up at Thorgr she asks, "Are you sure you don't mind laying down? You don't have to lay down with me if you don't want to." Her face takes on a slightly more serious expression, "I'm serious Thorgr, I don't want you hurting yourself."
"I don't mind laying down," Thorgr says, getting changed. "I'm feeling a bit worn out from the trip anyway."
He smiles at Frostine again. "I promise I won't hurt myself."

She squints her eyes at him as she gets under the covers, "You better not, I'm probably going to get really fat." She kind of shrugs, "Though I'm guessing that wouldn't really stop you." Yawning again she turns on her side to face him as she waits for him to get settled in the bed, "Yeah, I'm feeling pretty tired too...I just don't want to sleep so much that we don't sleep tonight and throw everything off. I'm pretty sure that rest is important though when you're trying to grow another whole human inside of you." She says before letting out another loud yawn.
She just nods.
”It might be a good idea to have it with me, if what’s left of the good in him is in it. After destroying the armor that binds him in that state, the next step would be bringing him back, and having the sword might make that easier.” Sādhanā says after an extended period of silence to consider. ”One way or another we’ll find him and bring him back. It isn’t like we haven’t done the impossible before.”
Frostine giggles, "Okay, but I don't want you hurting yourself trying to pick me up when I'm as big as a house."

Hitome simply sits in silence, smiling at the conversation. She hoped Mayoxa had gotten enough rest.

Having finished the fine meal, she finishes her drink before wiping her mouth. Once Dagmarr is finished she gets up and holds out her hand for her beloved. The thought of Dagmarr as her beloved brings a smile to her lips as she stays close to the woman that was closest to her heart.
Taking Rosa's hand, Dagmarr steps up beside her love, bringing her hand up to her lips for a moment before smilingly turning back to face Woden.
Slinging the bag over her shoulder, Sig takes Jerrica's hand. "Ready, Love?"
She nods, "Okay, let me go get it." Going to her bedroom she takes his sword from out of the closet. She holds it closely to her chest for a moment before returning to the others in the kitchen.
Looking at Sadhana she asks, "Would it be alright if I held it one more time before you leave, so I can tell him what's going on?"
Rosa looks up at Dagmarr and smiles as her love gently kisses her hand, "It's much colder here than where we came from. Do you think we should look into some warmer things to wear? At least a thick cloak or something?" She asks, as they look around the general store.
Jin looks over at Hitome as Toni goes to check on her midwife. Noting the look on Hitome's face she smiles, "So, whatcha thinkin' bout Hitome?" She asks, curious as to what would have her friend looking that way.
"Absolutely."Sad says supportively
"That would definitely be a good idea my love. As much as I love your outfits I'd much prefer you not shivering with cold." the cleric agrees.
Looking around she says, "I don't see anything like that here. Maybe we could ask about it?" She kind of shrugs, "I mean, I could make my own if I had the material, but I'm pretty sure the others might need some warmer things as well, and I don't have enough time to make new winter outfits for everyone."
"Thanks, I promise I won't take too long, I know you need to get going." She says, while sitting down in a chair. After she sits down, she removes the sword from it's sheath, and holds it carefully in her hands. Closing her eyes she thinks of her brother, Theon Seraphis.
Hearing what the couple was saying about needing warmer clothing she looks over at them, "If you're needing warmer clothes, I know where you can find some. There happens to be an excellent tailor in this town. I think there's two shops that carry that sort of thing actually...but I think the other one is still being set up."
The muscular blue lady wasn't so scary when she wasn't being all excited and stuff. She actually seemed pretty nice, and wasn't getting all up in her space so she didn't feel as threatened by them anymore since the other lady had explained what she was doing and why. It was understandable really, Rosa knew that she was different so she was used to people staring at her, though it still made her feel a little uncomfortable.
Shaking her head to bring herself back to the present she says, "Ohh...well, that doesn't sound like such a bad idea if we don't have to wait for the clothes. Maybe when we come back sometime I can actually get some materials to make outfits for us. What do you think love? About seeing this tailor after we're done here?" She asks as she looks up into Dagmarr's beautiful eyes with her own expressive violet ones.
"I'm pretty sure that rest is very important," Thorgr says, letting out a long yawn.
Jerrica nods and takes Sig's hand as they head to the general store. "Let's see. Frostine said we should get some rations. Unless we need anything else, we can probably buy that pretty quick."
Toni returns with a sleepy-looking Malyoxa in return. "She's awake."
"You can thank your paladin friends for that," Malyoxa says sulkily.
Jin gives the dark elf an understanding look, "I'm sorry your rest was disturbed Ms. Malyoxa."
"I've probably slept enough anyway," Malyoxa says with a shrug.

"That sounds like a wonderful idea darling. We'll definitely do that." Dagmarr says running her fingers through Rosa's hair.
Jin looks over at Hitome as Toni goes to check on her midwife. Noting the look on Hitome's face she smiles, "So, whatcha thinkin' bout Hitome?" She asks, curious as to what would have her friend looking that way.
"Not that much, hoping that Malyoxa got enough rest given the noise and activity nearby......apparently not." Hitome trails off as Toni returns with her sleepy midwife in tow. "Well if you need a nap at some point I suppose you can always stake one while we handle things." she says supportively.

Rosa leans into Dagmarr as she runs her fingers through her hair.
Jin nods in agreement.
"Sig and I can take care of business real quick," Jerrica says to the others. "Then we'll go see the tailor."
"If I am supposed to be camping with you 'day folk', I'll try to adjust my schedule," Malyoxa says.
The scene begins to fade and Arista catches glimpses of rocky foothills and forests. Before too long, Arista cannot make out anything and Theon is gone.
She takes a deep shuddering breath as she tries to take in everything she saw and heard and try to make sense out of it so she could relay it to the others. Putting the sword back in it's sheath she shakily hands it to Sadhana, "Well...that was different. It wasn't like the last times that I saw him. He looked so different....really grim and pale. The surroundings were different too. Everything was really hazy at first and there was soooo much snow." She pauses for a moment to catch her breath. After a couple of minutes she looks up at Sadhana with tears in her eyes, "He said that something has happened to his armor and he feels like he did when he died....but something has a hold of him and isn't letting him pass on. He said...he said that his armor isn't destroyed, but that the hateful spirit inhabiting it has been stilled for the time being. Before he disappeared, I saw rocky foothills and forests....I'm not sure what all this means, but please be careful....if you can save him, that's great...but DO NOT put yourselves at great risk to do so. If I can't ever see him again....I'll be satisfied knowing that he is at peace and no longer in that tortured state. Just...just be careful okay?" She says, sounding shaky and extremely tired.
Unsure of what to really say, she just looks around at Laenid and her friends. She didn't want Malyoxa to be uncomfortable, but she knew they had to all work together. After thinking for a few minutes she looks over at the dark elf, "Is there anything that we could get that would make the daytime less uncomfortable for you?"
Rosa nods, "Okay."
Arista hears a knock at the door.
Getting a worried look on her face she goes to the door. She wasn't expecting anyone, but there were a lot of people in the town now. Maybe someone needed her.
Making sure that her daughter and the puppy were playing in Celine's room, she opens the door to see who it is.
