Darenos enters after Crystal, a worried look on her face.
"Are you alright, Crystal? Is there something I can do for you?"

"I am sorry, we should have geussed at something like that..."
Darenos said as he sat down. He looked at the girl, her knees drawn upto her face and fear obviously ruling her mind now. He sighed and pulled out a bottle of meade, and opened it, the spritely smell of honey and cherries filled the room as he poured a glass of the amber liquid.
"Would you like a taste?"

"What is it? It smells good so.. sure. I'll take a drink."

He chuckles a bit, and hands her the glass.
"It's called meade, it's made from fermented honey and cherries and other fruits. I have grown accomstomed to drinking to calm my nerves, especially when I am reading... do you like?"

She took a sip and smiled at the sweet honey flavor it had.
"Yes It's very good."
Crystal took another sip as she let herself relaxe a little.
"Thank you..."

"No problem, and don't worry this is a very low alcoholic beverage, just enough to make you relaxed..."
He said as he poured himself another drink and took a sip himself. He smiled at the girl slightly and then looked out a window.
"It seems that we will have to take this fight straight to this guys doorstep...As much as I don't want to..."
He said in a little more serious tone.

"I won't go. You will be alone with whoever you take with you... I will not facee him."
She yawned softly as she spoke. Clearly she was fighting sleep. They name alone was enough to make her not want to sleep,
"He will dio things that will have you begging for death. He is much like Mastema... in a way,"

Darenos looks back to the girl and smiles seeing her yawn.
"I understand...I will visit him tomorrow.. But now I think that you must rest..come with me..."
He said as he placed the glass down and stood.

Crystal stood up and sat down her glass.
"But I won't want to slep... "
She said with another ywan. Crystal rubbed her eyes softly as she fought a lossing battle with sleep.

"Here, I will carry you upstairs to my room, and do not worry you will sleep as if you it was the first time..."
He said smiling softly, he moved closer to her so he can lift her up.

Darenos smiled and lifted her up and walked up the stairs to Matsuo's old room. The door opened for him and when he entered a wonderful smell of lavender and myrrhe wafted in the air. Slowly he placed the little girl on the large four poster bed and quietly tucked her in and closed the door, the room was nice and warm, a perfect temperature. He then moved and sat down at one of the large chairs next to the fireplace. He unsheathed his blade and placed it beside him so as easily grabbed.
"Sleep well within the Dragon's lair, my young treasure..."
He said quietly to the girl.

After several hours, Darenos fell asleep watching Crystal. He couldn't help it, it took alot of strength to do several things today. He placed a spell upon the room so as to keep the girl safe and to also keep prying eyes from watching.

Crystal quickly sat up as she woke. She didn't seem to notice Darenos when she first looked around the room. Her eyes stopped on the fireplace for a little and then over to the chair. She frowned slightly as she quietly crawled out of bed headed for the door. Crystal was careful not to wake him as she left to go downstairs.
Once in the main room, Crystal went over to Focht and checked his wounds. He seemed to be healing well. She made sure he hand enough food and drink next to him so he wouldn't have to get up. After that was done she grabbed her gear and headed out to the forest for some practice.
