"Now you know how I feel then.. " He smirked a little. "You know very well Dryads don't normally walk when there is a chance to avoid it." There was enough nature in these areas that he could use his abilities to make traveling faster, though it'd come to a dead halt in it's progression as soon as they hit the snowy mountains. Sadly that was sooner then later. "You know.. it's probably a good thing your tagging along." He never bothered to look at her as he spoke, he didn't want to admit he'd need her help to get across the first range they needed to cross. "Cold weather and I do not get alone in the least..." he half hissed out his words, sure these areas got snow but it wasn't year around.

[Maniacal_Moon]

Dalea blinked when he never looked at her when he spoke. She took that as an insult, but then understood why. She nodded slightly and looked ahead. "No worries. I think I'll need your help at least once on our little journey." She knew that there were things out there that were more fearsome than fairies at their worst. She also knew that some of them were right in their path. They tended to be in areas where it was near impossible for life to thrive.

[Rosekitten]

"Thats not encouraging you know.." He laughed weakly, maybe now was a bad time to tell her his powers weakened the further they traveled. Though maybe he could pull something off f it was needed. He'd have to save any energy until then to ensure he could if such a situation occurred.

He seemed to pause a moment before gesturing his hand towards the road ahead. "welcome to the lovely town of Alentery.. where it's occupied by humans and nothing but. Aside from a handful of slaves hat were unlucky enough to be captured and planed in bonds."

[Maniacal_Moon]

Dalea blinked and slowly went to her feet. She had her wings slowly disappear. She then looked at Var and smiled. To anyone, she would look like a woman in her 30's with long blond hair to her waist and braided. She wore a blue sundress, sun hat and sandals. It looked as though she had just gone out for a walk. She could touch the clothes and they were real until she decided to change them back. "Alright, you now. What would you like to look like? Human only, please."

[Rosekitten]

"aw but i detest that form... " he grinned a little before answering her question on his looks. He had half human after all so it was natural he had a human form, it favored his dryad features a little keeping the deep green eyes, though the hair was a rather dull dark brown. He could pass off as being at least 35, maybe a few years older then that even. This form included a minor bit of facial hair and his dress seemed to change as well. Just common clothes of these areas, nothing over the top or that would draw attention.

He looked at her with a bit of a tired look in his eyes knowing all too well he hated this form but i had been useful a few times in the past."Does his suite you or should i go disguised as a potted plant?" He smirked a bit knowing he were merely joking, but she wasn't the only one with the ability to change formed, just he couldn't provide assistance to others forms like a fairy could.

[Maniacal_Moon]

Dalea smiled, waiting for him to decide. She was going to help him keep his appearence up. "Now. There is no need for you to use up any energy. If you just hold my hand once we are inside the city, I can take the load." She knew the colder it got the less energy he would have. She liked the looked he chose. He was quite...handsome. For human standards anyway. She smiled and slowly reached out and touched his facial hair. "Nice touch."

[Rosekitten]

"Not by choice trust me... also one of the reasons id rather not lose being a dryad.. I tried being a human for a while. It's hardly as fun as it sounds." He gave her a bit of a look like he was annoyed at the fact, in truth he didn't have complete control over this forms looks, the most he could change was the clothing style or eye and hair color, everything else seemed to always be set in place when he switched to this form.

Though he wasn't going to turn down her assistance for keeping the form, it took little to no energy but it could add up in the long run."well... shall we go then?"

[Maniacal_Moon]

Dalea wayched and listened to him. She knew it was hard for him to accept her assistance, but if she had to she would make him if it was for his own good. She could rest for a short time and be completely refreshed, he couldn't as they went further. She started walking along side him, then sneakily slipped her hand over and gripped his gently. "Don't freak out. Rela so it doesn't look suspicious." Since he still looked younger than her, she changed her appearence slightly so she looked young enough to be dating him.

[Rosekitten]

He had to give her a odd look when she said relax. "You act like I've never been around a female before" He chuckled slightly at the thought of it. "I'm not going to blow our cover trust me, I've been around humans long enough i know how they act.. though some more questionable then others." He shook his head slightly. "Though we might still have troubles.. " He was more or less speaking of the guards or knights in the town.

[Maniacal_Moon]

Dalea giggled softly. "Oh, I'dm sorry for assuming. But, last time you were all rigid when I touched you." She let the hint of a dirty thought linger, then she shrugged. "The police won't be too much trouble. I'll just give my friend's address if they ask where we live." Her eyes widened slightly as she realized she'd revealed that she knew more than she should.

[Rosekitten]

"eh... it caught me off guard last time... " Ok sure he didn't have common interactions with females but he wasn't to the point he was scared or wanting to avoid them. Though with her next words he looked at her before speaking. "friend huh?"

[Maniacal_Moon]

Dalea tried to ignore his look, looking straight ahead. "Yes, a friend of mine lives here." She left it at that, knowing her 'friend' wouldn't appreciate a visit from the police, but they'd be out of the city and in the mountains before they new.

[Rosekitten]

"I'm not going to ask what type of friend you have to be living in such a place.. not my business" Though he could take a guess at her friends type, either being human or a half breed. "either way we should be in and out before anyone notices... unless you were planning on seeing this 'friend'."

[Maniacal_Moon]

Dalea looked like she would break out in hives. "No no no. We will not go see this friend. I made him mad last time I was here. That man instills in me the very essence of fear." She shivered. "I'll give him a couple decades to calm down first." Just from this reference referred to how old she really was.

[Rosekitten]

"Wouldn't call that a friendship if your scared to go near the person." He shrugged a little, not that it was his business anyway. Really he didn't care one way or another, he needed to hurry up and get this journey over with. Plus pray to the goddess that this was even the right direction to be headed in. Though he fell silent as they entered the town, not that he was worried but the less attention they drew the better. Even fairy magic was only so powerful.. there were ways to see through it.

[Maniacal_Moon]

Dalea shrugged. She was his friend, but she wasn't stupid. When you piss off a creature natorious for having a bad temper, steer clear. When they entered the town, she went to idle chit chat. She couldn't have people staring at them because they were too quiet. She'd just have it look like the typical one sided conversation, where the guy is usually ignoring the girl.
