It was odd seeing just how much Thalion detested water. Though almost expected if you consider it was his counter element. This probably didn't help when the guards had to deal with him in the least. Though they seemed to learn their lesson after the first one. Not that it saved them any further trouble, no he kept to his role of being a thorn in the guards side. Least for a little while. Besides that it gave him something to put his mind to besides the million of things that could go very wrong with all of this.

"Do I have a choice at this point?" He had a point, why ask knowing the answer. Not only that at this rate he was almost willing to do anything just to get off of this damned boat. Sure Beltran had helped as best as he could but that didn't make sleep come any easier. Though that might have been a combination of things. That and all of the noises bothered him. It was instinct to stay alert with so much going on and he hated it. A habit he never could kick from when he was in the resistance. Not that it was a bad thing to be alert.. at times.

"I'll manage.." Was the half growled reply to if he needed help dressing. He was going to hate this he could tell. Dressing wasn't the hard part. It was leaving the room this exposed. Hell he normally had armor on whenever he went anywhere let alone being fully covered in clothes other times. This was almost a form of torture if anyone asked Thalion his thoughts on it. "Oh you owe me.." He said under his breath, speaking about Mizuki owing him.

He couldn't help the flush of color on his face. If anything this was the one and only time he wouldn't be ready for a fight. Yet he knew he better get use to this outfit and start liking it having no idea how long their plan was going to take. At first he never said a word not till Beltran spoke up and he glared at the other.

"Tsk... and flattery gets you no where.. let alone blatantly lying about it." That was Thalion's thoughts on it. He hardly thought of himself as something to look at and Mizuki never really said anything about looks so he normally ignored any thoughts on them. Though when he spoke again about Mizuki needing to see this he glared more. "Like hell I'll be caught dead wearing anything even close to this when I do not have to." It was true, and he was only in this damned outfit now because he had no choice.

He was really a sight, the silk cloth and its colors going well with his natural skin tone and the exposed skin in places having a few splashes of scars from previous fights. Beltran was right that Mizuki should see the sight standing here. Though the smirk from Beltran made Thalion a little more then uncomfortable at the moment feeling more then exposed. "try anything and it will be the last thing you ever do in this life time..." He warned with a slight growl. He meant it too.

Though after the other said shall they he sighed a little. "Get this over with.." He muttered. He might complain a lot but Thalion was doing all of this purely to get Mizuki and Nytria out of this place... who knows maybe making a difference and at the absurd thought they might gain a new ally once a new ruler took the throne.

More or less over the trip it took to get here they worked on a story saying that he was mostly trained. At the least was obedient from the beatings on the trip here. not to mention the one dead guard and about a handful of others that had something broken or a mark from having to try to deal with him.

So for now there was little he could do but follow Beltran and act his part. The wait was going to kill him. Knowing he could get to Mizuki but that he couldn't yet. Let alone he didn't want to really see the other. Not in the state he was in. The picture Beltran had shown him had hurt. There was nothing left in those souless eyes. The color was faded and he seemed to have nothing left of his former self. What if all of this was for nothing... that was his only worry. He would get Mizuki back and yet he still would not have him.
