Welcome to Gaia! ::

Here there is a large lake where people come to swim or just see the sights. There are trees along the edge and a dock for boats. There are some huge rocks on one side of the lake that people use for diving, but on the area that the trees are along the edge, are some rocks that block off the lake from some hotsprings. The springs have a division in them as if it's making a side for men and a side for women that's fenced in. There's also a bigger pool that would seem suited for co-ed, but doesn't have a fence around it.

((Keep this place PG-13, guys. Nudity is fine, but no indepth details and no... You know what is meant by it.))

Zelos let Izuno down and walked over to a hidden area of the lake so no one would be able to find him except the people he came with. It seemed that it was a rocky area and there was a seperation. He went behind the rocks to the hidden area and a splash could be heard as he entered. He was in the section that was the hotsprings. He had taken off most of his clothes, but still had a pair of shorts on. His mask was still on, though, as he didn't want to remove it just yet.

Mari seen him walk off behind some rocks and was curious. She seen steam coming off from that area. "Are there hotsrpings near here?"

Mari kinda shook her head a bit. "I don't have a swimsuit at the moment." She didn't know about the privacy section for women.

The hotspring area Zelos was in was the public one because he was still wearing shorts. He didn't feel as if privacy was needed.

She thought about it and nodded. "Okay. We can do that, then." She looked up at Smash and smiled. "I'm gonna go and see how it is."

Once they were in the privacy fence, she took off her clothes and laid them on a shelf. She tied her hair back and got into the water, letting out a sigh as she entered. "This feels nice..."

Mari leaned back and rested her head against the edge of the pool. The water felt very nice and she just closed her eyes. Her ring was still around her neck, though, as her hands were not fully healed yet.

Zelos was still in the public area, and the upper half of his body was out of the water and his arms were resting along the edge. He had his head tilted back and the mask was still on him. His body was covered in scars. Some seemed small, but there were others that were quite large and looked like they came from some serious wounds.

She opened her eyes and looked up at her. "Yea. He's a sweetheart. I feel lucky everyday."

Mari was curious and just decided to ask. "Do you like him in that way?" She kept her head up and her arms were under the water.
