Aphmau, Katelyn and I start going through a couple shops, having a small look.
"This place has everything." Katelyn mentions.
"You find everything you need, M'lady?" I ask.
"I think so. What about you?" Aphmau replies.
"Mhm." I smile, holding the little trinket I bought for Erin. It's a small gold bracelet with the symbols of all the Divine Warriors.
"Hmm... Is there anything else you think Travis might like?" Aphmau asks, looking at Katelyn.
"Uhh. Pfft no. I don't even know why you asked me to help you find something for him." Katelyn replies.
"Okay... I just thought you might know of something I could bring up to him. Are you sure you can't come up to see him with me?" Aph asks.
"Very. I need to see the council. They need to be briefed on the return of Shad, as well as the return of Zane."
"What about you Anna?" Aphmau asks, turning to me.
"As much as I would love to see Travis... I thought you wanted to journey with Sir Liochant as a way to show your trust in him."
"True..." She replies, still a little unsure. "I just know how happy he would be to see you as well."
"Okay. I'll accompany you as well, M'lady."
"Thank you." Aphmau smiles, as if to agree with my plans.
"Just know... I don't have any weapons on me." I state, before grabbing and handing my bow and arrows to Katelyn.
Katelyn nods and grabs them off me. I have faith in Katelyn and her judgement... And if something does happen... there's always my magic...
"I-..."
"Lady Aphmau." Garroth enters the shop, "Are you ready to depart?"
"Just about. But Garroth... Can you stay behind to watch Alina, Erin, and Lilith? At least while I go and see Travis?"
"Certainly. I take it Lady Katelyn will be accompanying you."
"I can't. I have to meet with the alliance."
"So... Lady Anna?"
"Yes." Aphmau states, glancing at me.
"But not as a guard. Simply a friend."
He glares at me for a brief moment, and notices I don't have any weapons. He turns back to Aphmau in a slight panic, "You are going up there without a guard? To see Travis?!" Garroth questions, "Are you sure that's wise?"
"They will be fine."
"Thank you, Katelyn. But I won't be travelling up there without one. I'll be taking my newest guard with me, Liochant." Aphmau explains.
"Liochant?!" Garroth repeats.
"A fine choice." Katelyn smiles.
"Yes. I've seen how he takes care of the girls and I trust him completely." Aphmau says.
"Of course, M'lady." Garroth sighs, accepting her choice.
"Liochant!" Aphmau calls.
Liochant, Alina, Lilith and Erin walk into the shop and join us. Alina runs up to Aphmau while Erin and Lilith come up to me.
I bend down to their level and ask, "And what do you girls have?"
"Lady Aphmau, Lady Anna," He smiles, "I hope you both don't mind, but I bought the girls some sweets. I just couldn't say no."
