 The warm sun beats down upon her coat. It's heat feeling rather pleasant unlike the cold of the day before. If there is one thing she doesn't like it is to be cold. Helena can't recall a time when she had liked the snow. So when it became summer she was very happy. Yet now fall is coming up ahead. Then the bitter cold that she is dreading. Walking alongside a river she makes her way towards a place where she can watch the leaves turn colors. At least then she can appreciate the fall in all it's beauty. Not one to live among villages. She absolutely finds the company of two leggers to be uncomfortable. They always seem to look at her oddly. Like they hope that she will bond with them. The thought makes her shudder. How ridiculous that is. Her? Bond to a filthy two legged creature? No. Absolutely not.

 Wings tucked in. Can't get caught. Not so close... He needed to get to Mibu's forest by atleast nightfall... And he couldn't fly. His wing had somehow gotten dislocated during the little diversion Aunt Michiko had cooked up to save him... to save Lady Dea... and to save Mibu... So many lives were at stake here.... And he couldn't get caught. He definitely wouldn't be able to give out the name he'd used for so many years working for his father.. So for now it was Roman... Hardly anyone had ever heard him by that name and wouldn't be associated with it.

Walking at a nice even pace she doesn't pay any heed to her whereabouts. So she doesn't see the other azerin for a while yet. Her pale hair tumbles down. Her tail trailing upon the ground. Yet the ground isn't wet so the ends don't seem to get dirty. Pale eyes start to look around as she gets distracted. Was that a mockingbird calling? Spotting flames upon a pair of wings she steps back quickly and ends up falling into the water. Embarrassment goes through her as she is absolutely horrified by what just happened. Getting up gracefully she shakes most of the water from her coat. Stepping out of the water she can't look at the other azerin. She hopes that the stallion didn't see her horrific experience. Oh how dreadful that would be!

Roman turned his head at the sound of a splash, only to see, what used to be a regal looking female, resurface out of the water looking like an albino drowned rat... with red lace markings. How intriguing. It was his intention to keep going forward but another look at her horrified expression had him trotting easily over to her, careful not to jostle his dislocated wing too much as he approached. "Miss, are you okay?" He asked cautiously

Helena hears the other coming towards her before she looks up. To all her dismay the stallion is trotting towards her. Why did he have to witness that? Her hair is a mess now! Oh how cruel fate can be! Trying to regain any sense of dignity she lifts her head and looks at him. Turning her pale gaze to him. She puts a look of annoyance on her face."I. Am. Fine! Blasted rock. " She still can feel the blush upon her cheeks by the warmth."You startled me! I thought you were on fire and needed help and you startled me!" Letting out a huff she stamps a dainty hoof on the ground."And to know that you witnessed such an event! I am simply horrified! Now I am a mess and probably look like a drowned rat! It will take forever for my mane and tail to dry out and for me to put it up again!"

Roman stepped back startled, his red eyes looking from side to side as if looking for a way to escape the mare's ire. "Uh.. well I can't.. help with any of those problems.. except for maybe the getting dry part... Would you like some help?" He asked. He had helped his sister/partner Dakini dry off several times after a swim she had taken on the way home to wash Audra's scent off of her before Ruin and Demoni could detect.

Helena is about to snarl back a reply when he mentions something about being able to dry her mane and tail. Going from annoyed to pleased she nods her head." Oh yes please! That would be most appreciated. So how exactly does this work?" Watching him with her pale eyes she stands prim and proper as she had been instructed to since she was little. "Could you.. perhaps be sure not to burn any of my hair? I just.. I like my hair."

Roman gave a smile. "I will not burn you Miss. I have plenty of practice. Stand back though." He instructed and turned to his uninjured side. He extended a wing, and through it, let the heat of his kind radiate off his body to heat the air that he pumped towards her, letting it wash over her wet body easily and effortlessly. He continued his actions until she seemed dry enough, before he folded his wing back up and tilted his head at her, red eyes regarding her carefully. "Better?"

Helena nods and stands back."Okay then. Ummm... I am ready when you are." The warm air on her is almost too much. Yet she waits as her coat and hair starts to dry. Smiling she looks at the stallion."My Gratitude. I don't believe I know your name.I am Helena De Evon."

Roman smiled and dipped his head to the lady, his chains rattling against his chest. "Mine is Cha-... Uhm... it is Roman. A pleasure to meet you, Lady Helena De Evon." He smiled, though his eyes blinked and he berated himself at the blunder. My she was pretty. She almost reminded him of his mother... though his mother wasn't quite as fair... nor as ladylike. The thought made him grin wider and shake his head. "Might I inquire as to why a Lady of your stature is traveling by herself?" He asked.

Watching the other curiously, she just notices the chains. How interesting are those! Though she wouldn't dare have chains around her. Oh no no no! Simply would be a fashion disaster with her markings and her marvelous hair."Oh? A stallion of mystery.How interesting! Not wanting to give me your nickname mmm? So is Roman your first or middle name?" He seems to be taking in her appearance and she snorts at his next question a ladylike snort." What? A lady like myself can't possibly defend herself?" She flips her hair and recalls other incidents." Actually.. I don't know why I even started traveling in the first place! I startle too easily and I find traveling alone to be.. horrible! Gets rather lonely with nobody to talk with."

Roman smiled kindly. "Its my first. Roman Aumia. My nickname... has gotten me into trouble before and I am trying not to use it." He replied evenly, shifting his weight and wincing at the feeling of his injured wing sliding against his back. He seethed for a moment before turning to the lady. "I apologize ahead of time for this but can you help me? If you could just lift up the base of my wing for me? Until it pops? I would very greatly appreciate it." He asked with sincerity in his eyes.

Helena gives a short sound of understanding." Well now. With that being said I won't pry further on what that name was. As your answer was satisfactory enough." Noticing the wince.. or did she imagine it? She blinks at the request. Her do such a thing?! Why! Halting her thoughts she realizes her attitude is quite silly at the moment. After all he did help her first. Eyes focus back on Roman and she gives a curt nod."Considering you helped me. It would only be the right thing to do to in turn return the favor. So here?" She moves to where she can lift the wing and she does so slowly and hesitantly as she doesn't exactly want to hurt him.

Roman gave her an apologetic look before she finally decided to help him out. She seemed really hesitant so he sank down without any warning, popping the joint back into place with a loud SNAP. He let out a yelp of pain and relief before standing back and flexing his wings. He dipped his head at her, gratitude shining in his eyes. "Thank you, dear Lady. I promise I would not have normally asked that of you, but it would have been days before I saw someone else."

She is moving his wing up when all the sudden he sinks down. Startled, she jumps when she hears a loud SNAP! A cry of momentary fear comes from her as she did not expect that. She just about jumped two feet in the air. She moves away from the water thankfully this time. Pale eyes latch onto Roman as she blushes yet again for the second time that day. Whatever is going on with her! "I'm sorry! I didn't expect you to.. well you know.. Suddenly sink down and hear the snap so quickly.. " Flustered she tries to get back her composure."You are very welcome.. Yes.. Very welcome.. After all it was the least I can do for your help earlier."
