"We'll catch a break eventually. Don't worry, okay?" Mala assured Van, moving one hand over to caress his cheek.

"I know. I mean the only thing left is if Atius wants to screw with us some, and what's he gonna do, demote me? We've already foiled all his other schemes!" Van joked.

"Careful, you might be tempting fate here." Mala joked. "Not that we couldn't handle such a thing, anyway."

"Bah. I'd just make sure to take a drink from the fountain too. Hell, I might take a drink anyway to just to see how it tastes. I mean the water of immortality should taste pretty good if it could make you live forever." Van said.

"I look forward to finding out what it tastes like. If it tastes anything like herbal medicine, though, expect there to be some gagging." Mala said, making a scrunched up sort of childish expression at the thought of herbal medicine.

"One more push and then we're home free. It's almost hard to believe how much crap we've gone through just to get to this point." Van said, just enjoying having her in his arms right now.

"Knowing us, it'll probably seem like a hassle when we are looking but it'll feel like nothing once we've done it. Whatever is thrown at us, we can handle it." Mala replied, snuggeling herself a little closer to Van as he held her for extra warmth. After all, they were still naked and she was beginning to get cold.

"Okay, bed is starting to sound really good and warm right now." Van said reaching down to grab their clothes. "Especially since I think you're starting to shiver. Plus that's really how I want to end a night like this, us catching a cold."

"You can say that again." Mala chuckled, looking forward to getting dressed once more and heading off to a nice, comfortable bed.

"Know of any ritzy hotels nearby that I don't know about, or was the hot spring the only nearby gem?" Van said as he wrung out his hair before starting to get dressed.

Mala was slipping on her clothes as well, trying her best to get them on as quickly as possible. "Indeed I do. There should be a couple around here."

"Nothing like the nice cozy blankets of a high class hotel and the body heat of your fiance to warm you up." Van said wrapping his arms around Mala once she was dressed again. "Ha! Add that to my list of words I never thought I'd hear myself say." he said with a slight chuckle.

Mala chuckled as she replied, "Life is full of surprises, isn't it?" She kept a broad grin on her lips as they walked along, heading for the fanciest hotel they could afford.

"I doubt we'd be here right now if it weren't for a few curveballs in life" Van said following alongside Mala walking hand in hand.

"That's true. Some of which might just be blessings in disguise when you think about it. After all, we're here now aren't we?"
