[ Sorry for being so late to join in. I should stop joining so many different RPGs, I guess. I'll have to catch up with everyone. If there's some misinformation in my post, tell me. I read most but not all of the other posts. ]

Rain. Great. Just when she had ended a contract with some rich merchant man who she had been bodyguarding. Sure she had money, but it would of been hell of a lot nicer if she were with the man and dry. Wet and cold weather was not one of her favorites. As her feet carried her along the drenched path, she made sure that she had her cloak on tight. Couldn't help with the rain, but could keep her a bit warm. It didn't prevent a sneeze that came a moment later, though.

“Damnit.” A short curse left the petite figure's mouth.

To tell the truth, the girl traveling all alone didn't look much like a girl. Yes she was small, but besides that, nothing else made her resemble a girl. Perhaps it was her age. Or maybe her lifestyle. Whatever it was, she only looked like a young boy on a trip.

In fact, this individual took that as a positive and used it in life, for making money. Worked as a mercenary.

Of course, it was not that reason alone. Some how, this praticular girl didn't like her feminine origin. She always pondered why she couldn't of have just been born male. It would have made it much easier.

Anyway, soon the inidividual began looking for shelter. DRY shelter. Then what came into view of those rather big blue-black pools was a circle of stones with a roof on top. Well, it looked like a pretty dry place where there was no fee for staying under. Decision made, tiny feet carried their owner over to it.

The guitar like instrument that had been carried on the figure's back was set down as the hood of the cloak was taken down. A clearer view of those blue-black eyes were seen as well as short hair of the same color. A sigh of relief was heard from her. Then, a brow was shot up at an odd sight.

There seemed to be a secret sort of pathway here. She had been wondering why there were no people when there was a definate marking that someone had been here. Well, there was nothing better to do, so why not go on an adventure, she thought.

And with that, the small body was thrown down the passageway, no voice of complaint or a curse heard, since she landed on her own two feet. Her athletic abilities were a handy thing.

A lake was the view filling her eyes. And...glowing people. Several blinks were to follow as the individual rubbed her eyes. Was she seeing things?

“What the hell... ”
