    "Ohh!" Ciana's fingertips pressed over her lips, since it was unbecoming of a Lady to gape as she was. Her eyes widened with delight, and she glanced to Ennio, ensuring she had permission before stepping over the threshold and onto the black sand. "This is.." her head shook and she frowned...

    Ciana smiled warmly as she followed behind him, her gaze bright with intrigue as he took her through a magical door, leading to a corridor of what looked like more magical doors. “Are… Are these places?..” She asked, looking at the names as she passed them. She read the name on the door they...

    Ciana's lips twisted and she gave him a look of uncertainty, but he did have a point.. She considered his hand for only a few seconds before reaching to take it with a grin, her curiosity getting the best of her. In a way, she supposed, this was learning too.. "I suppose I could stay a little...

    Ciana's cheeks warmed slightly and she gave a rather sheepish smile.. "I.. Well, no.." she cleared her throat and suddenly felt extremely guilty. "He's asleep. And, I suppose I just let my curiosity get the better of me. I really don't get out much.." she laughed under her breath and sighed...

    Ciana beamed at him. She wasn't sure she'd ever met anyone so high spirited as Ennio, and she found his company to be quite pleasant. She sipped at her drink with a soft smile in her eyes as she watched him, though his request caused her brows to lift, and she set her glass down. "Oh.. Well...

    Ciana bit gently on her lower lip, feeling somewhat foolish for her question, but she chuckled as he eased the sting with a compliment. "Forgive me.. Magic is very new to me.. There was no such thing back home. I have much to learn yet.." she blushed with a warm smile. The drink looked...

    Ciana nodded enthusiastically, her smile warming further as she watched him work so happily. Her blue eyes lit up at the sight of the drink as it poured into the glass, a quiet gasp drawn in.. "I've never seen a drink like th--" "Wait..You mean.." her head tilted in confusion, though her...

    Ciana's head tilted in amusement as he spoke of the inn as though it could move around. She chuckled and rested her arms on the table, leaning forward to watch Ennio work. "Oh it seems anything but simple.." she commented with a warm smile. "I've visited one or two places lately, but nothing...

    "Ennio.." she smiled with a nod. "I'm Ciana." she introduced and chuckled at his antics as she watched. "Ah, well, I've never had a best friend before." she admitted and cast her gaze around the darkened tavern. "The Last Chance... That's a curious name. It is very charming." she smiled with a...

    Ciana near leapt from her skin when the man in the dark whirled to face her.. "Oh-- Well, thank you." she said with a nervous laugh as she was beckoned inside. She could see well enough, though she was far more used to the darkness than most. "How..strange." Ciana answered his predicament over...

    Women didn't generally walk the streets alone unless they were working them. By the looks of Ciana, she certainly wasn't a working girl, but nobody really paid her any heed and so she was given no reason to feel unsafe as she wandered. She came to a stop outside the inn, the strange sign...

    She enjoyed her meal whilst chatting to the professor, and when her wine was finished she excused herself to sink into a hot bath and into some fresh clothes. The thin sliver of light that sneaked into the room between her drapes had dimmed to the coppery glow of sunset, and Ciana carefully...

    Maric never had any trouble holding Ciana's attention. She hung on to every word he spoke with intrigue. He had lived a truly wonderful life, and she found it difficult not to be at least a little jealous of it. But she was here, now, on her own adventure and who knew where her new life would...

    "Oh I quite agree." she chuckled quietly as she poured them both some of the wine. "Especially sweet foods, though if I had my own way I'd have grown fat long ago.. Our cook, Agatha, her honey and lemon cakes were devilish." she smiled.. "Tell me more of your life growing up, whilst we eat?"

    Ciana's shoulders rose and fell in a sigh.. "I'm sure I can handle a little nausea in the name of adventure, I don't wish to put you to trouble.." she smiled, her attention turning to the door as he opened it. The man in the doorway smiled and dipped his chin, a large tray balanced on his...
