Cyreen smiled at her and answered, "Seen and done many things that I've learned from or been taught a lesson from. But I wouldn't say I know teh entierty of my race's history, a lot yes, but I could never claim to know everything. And there are a few of us scattered arround still." Laughing taking a drink she then added with a grin, "When we get together, the planets tips and the gods sit back and enjoy a drink with us."
She finished her drink and said to her, "In time, you just have to ask, there are those out there from bards to story tellers who can tell you local tales from their areas. Even in the stories there's facts. Every culture has their tales of those who came from the graves and those who drink teh blood of others and those who run from sunlight, every culture even mine. and with some storytellers and bards no voice is one to get tired of, for all voices contain something in them."
She caught teh naga's eyes and laughed amused, "this one was a few times older than you, but he was an old fool, could handle the drink very well, and spin a yarn better than most storytellers." Finishing her drink she thought for a minute then said, "He went by the name Rush, said he was from one of the swamplands near the equator, this was about 400 years ago" She grinned and added, "he was a damned good person to have at your back in a fight, a spunky old s**t too."

Galahdwen nodded, "You do seem like a knowledgeable person. It is amazing you know so much about your kind." The vampire froze, "D-do you know anything about those creatures?" Galahdwen asked timidly. She glanced at Blade, and back at Cyreen. "What do you know about them?"

"When I am near you I feel strongest where ever I go Aika. Be by my side and I can take you anywhere you want in the known world and beyond so long as it is touched by the waters shared by these waters." Talos said as he created a rose made out of ice and handed it to her.

Aika smiled as she took the rose in her hand. Her eyes closed a little though as she started to feel tired. She was feeling the exhaustion now a bit. She knew that soon she would need to sleep. ‘For now my love, I think it best we both get some rest. I am in need of sleep.’ She’d lift her lips close to his lips kissed gently as she closed her eyes. She was trying to let him know her level of exhaustion.

"I understand. Then I will take you back to your room so we can get you some new clothes and rest." Talos said as they began to surface once more.
"However I do not require rest liek most normal creatures. I am as restless as the river that travels the lands. Worry not for me Aika." Talos said as he begain to walk back toward the building.

“That is some worry lifted off my shoulders.” Aika leaned her head against his shoulder as it was clear she was in his arms again. She didn’t mind this of course as she smiled gently at him and kissed him upon the cheek. She would instead hug him lightly as exhaustion finally took hold and she started falling asleep right there in his arms.

Once inside Talos was once again not surprised by the clothes that were laid out in anticipation of Aika and his swim. Aika was clearly asleep making this more difficult then he planned. All Talos could mange was command the water on their bodies to leave them. Being a part of the river it was his right and it obeyed as rivulets of water came off their bodies and made their way to the bathtub where the water could escape.
Now dry Talos put Aika on her bed gently and sighed. Her clothes were dry now so changing was not really necessary. He simply say down in the chair by the bed as he watched over Aika once more.

(Half the group is at the Tavern, the other half at Ellyia's home.)
Aika would continue to sleep as she was placed upon the bed. She was happy sleeping anywhere long as Talos was near. Her lips even showed this and her hand which had a firm hold of Talos’. She managed to snag it in her sleep.

Cyreen smiled at the vampire and chuckled, "I guess it would depend on which culture you see it from. From teh veiwpoint of sailors the nāgas are seen as deities and holy creatures and are even worshiped by some cultures." She chuckled as she went on saying with amusement, "It's said in some lore that the nāgas carry with them the elixer of life, and because of that elixer is why their tongues are forked."
She laughed now and said, "But Rush never seemed to give a damn about elixer or anything else as long as he had his blade and woman by his side and a good drink after a hard fight." She shook her head and said honestly, "Guess it all depends on where the naga is from as well as to how they are, differnt areas different ways of life, just like with any culture or race who are scattered here and there in small pockets."

Arngrim had watched the tavern suddenly become full. He stayed near the back tables, keeping his head low and staying silent. He quietly sipped at his drink and eyed some of the newcomers.
Alia returned and looked for Arngrim. She was surprised at how quickly it all filled and how empty it was earlier. She found him soon enough and smiled. "It got busy real quick huh Guts?"
He nodded. "It sure did." He smiled. "Got the rooms?"
"Yup!" She beamed a smile back.

Talos almost laughed when Aika grabbed his hand unconsciously. The two of them were cut from similar types of magic. The only difference was Talos came from the wild side of the water magics while Aika came from something much more serene. They pulled to each other more often as Talos had been recently been able to feel where Aika is when he concentrated. He felt an urge to be by her as well.

"Oh, I see, interesting." Galahdwen had been holing for more information on vampires, but all the same it was interesting to learn about the naga kind, especially because one of their kind was sitting beside her. "The elixir of life hm? Why would it cause their tongues to fork?"

Aika turned slightly in her sleep as she continued to hold Talos’ hand. Her fingers would thread themselves into his hand as sleep continued to pull itself about her gently. She dreamt well. It was about Talos and her as she slowly would awaken to find her hand in his. She’d smile gently before falling back asleep still laying towards Talos as she gently would nudge her head into his chest in her sleep.
Kargeth would chuckle as he had an idea. “How about you all rest at the inn for the night and in the morning you could visit with Aika? I’m sure she’d like that. Aika is my little Ellyia.”

Blade thought hard for a moment, and unintentionally his own black, forked tongue flittered out for a moment in his brief lapse in control. "Hmmm... I'm afraid that I do not know of Rush." He said finally. "The names that a naga gives to an outsider is a convenience for the sake of the stranger, they are usually rough translation or words affiliated with that. For example the name that I prefer to go by is Blade, however my primary name is actually Al'shiro, which in traditional Naga legend and language is the name for 'Blade of Heroes,' which my family derived 'Blade' from." He explained before taking a long sip of his mead.
Blade placed his tankard down and smiled. "However, working of the same example, I actually know several people one from my village and one from a village at the other end of the river we live on, however there are several words and titles that 'Rush' can be derived from. Different villages and clans use different dialects of our language, and his could be derived from a different word then one I know. And at any rate, the oldest rush I know is guard who is almost exactly 400 I believe and never left the river area between the two village... with the exception of course with the traditional rite of passage of going to survive in the Spider forest for a set time."
