Stirring slowly upon hearing Thantos' deep voice, D'Aleen gazes into his eyes and smiles broadly while a slight blush steals across her cheeks as the memories from the previous evening flood her mind. Thinking back to the kisses they shared, the incredible gentleness of his touch and the feeling of contentment and safety she enjoyed in his arms, she savors it for a moment wishing she could feel so complete all the time.
She truly never thought that she would meet someone who would have the ability to catch, and hold, her attention. She never dreamed she would meet someone who would hold up to her high ideals (a curse of the Elvish folk) and whom she could respect and admire. Yet here, in the most unlikely place of all...she found exactly that. And, she thought to herself, she would treasure that and put her life on the line to protect it.
Slowly Thantos' words penetrate her blissful state and she sits up, sheepishly making herself presentable. Looking out to the main part of the room she realizes that all the others seem to be sleeping which is highly unusual.
"Thantos...what's happening? I can't see our entire group falling asleep without a watch set out, despite everyone's exhaustion. This just doesn't feel right somehow...." Anxiously she waits for him and they follow Krazixs out to try to rouse the others and determine what may have happened.
