I don't usually prompt outfits, but the following picture is what I imagined for the new outfit. In this chapter. I know it's from Hansel and Gretel: witch hunters. It just best shows what I was imagining. But if you don't like it. You can imagine something a bit more your style.
Anyway, sorry for the hold up. Onto the next installment!
There was no chance of me falling asleep. Not after this day. I waited patiently for the others to fall asleep. Upon the sound of snoring I lifted my head. The knights were asleep. I headed out of the house to my own home. The rain still poured down and my bare feet stepped in the mud. I stared at the charred remains of my home. There was but a moment before I stepped inside. Smoldering ashes had burnt through the home I remembered. I looked for anything my mother left behind about magic. But there was nothing more than her words for me to go west. I felt it earlier, the power, the magic, that flowed through me. As once happy memories danced through my mind; they were replaced with the destroyed images of the burnt, smoldering remains of my home. I walked through the side of the house that wasn't still smokey. The small dresser where I kept some of my clothes were there. In the bottom drawer was something wrapped in thin paper. I pulled the parcel from the drawer. Beneath the paper was a beautiful set of gear that looked like it was for a hunter. It did not look like men's clothes. I could only assume this was my mother's. But I had never seen her wear anything close to this outfit. I was starting to have more questions than answers. I walked through the doorway to the bedroom separated from the rest of the house. I lay out the outfit across the floor. My head felt fuzzy. For some reason I remembered that dream that haunted my sleep every night as a child. For a moment part of that scene was clear, but not long enough for me to fully remember it. It was just a flash of something long forgotten. I switched out the fancy dress for this more casual attire. I felt more like myself in this new outfit. An off white blouse was covered by a leather style vest that passed my hips meeting pants with a similar hue of the vest. A pair of leather gloves, and boots, sat on the floor as I admired the clothes. It felt like these clothes would have fit my mother perfectly. She was taller than I had been. Unfamiliar words left my lips as the clothes magically tailored to fit me. Almost instantly I heard a voice that told me to go to the very caves my mother told me about. As fast as that voice had startled me, it was gone; leaving me standing alone and quite confused. I walked into the main part of the house throwing my things onto a bed not harmed by the fire. My eyes scanned the room with the realization that my family had way more secrets than I knew of. The silence suddenly broken by footsteps entering my home."What're you doing?" Merlin's voice inquired.
"Nothing." I spun around, defensive in my stance, "this is my home. Didn't think I needed your permission to come here."
"You killed those bandits earlier, didn't you?"
"It was a rush of anger. I didn't plan to, but it just happened."
