Their travels had them arriving back in Rosaria later than they had imagined. Even with the aid of the Obelisks, their latest quest had taken hours to arrive at thendesignated area, dragged on by the need to fight beasts that continuously popped up (and often at the most inconvenient of times). Now that they had completed their task, they needed to reconvene with the merchant that had requested their assistance in the first place.
Unfortunately, it was far too late in the evening for the merchant to still be lingering — the sun had set over the horizon hours ago, and his customers had no doubt departed with it.
Fortunately, the merchant’s cart was stationed right outside of Martha’s Rest. And Martha, a friend to Cid and ally to the Hideaway, was always willing to welcome them into her inn with open arms. A roof over their heads and warm fire would be much welcomed after an exhausting day spent battling monsters.
Their luck, however, seemed to end there when Martha announced that while she would always be happy to provide shelter, there was only one room left at the rest. Thus, Jill and Clive would have to share the room. And while their situation had lead them to share a space on more than one occasion (she recalled sleeping under the somewhat dilapidated roof of Hanna Murdoch’s barn), there was something a bit….different about this situation. The thought of sharing such a private space with Clive had her cheeks flushing a soft shade of pink, which was thankfully hard to notice in the dim light of the inn now that the sun had set.
Clive, practical as ever, had graciously accepted Martha’s offer before they were lead up to the room.
Alone behind the closed door now that Martha had dismissed herself, the silverette couldn’t keep her gaze from falling upon the bed placed in the center of the room — the one bed.
“It was…quite the long day,” she remarked, thinking to make small talk as she moved to set down her rapier on the small desk in the corner of the room. “We will have to meet with the merchant early in the morning so we can hurry and return to the Hideaway. You should try to get some rest.”
