Talon walked into Serendipity Village at his normal slow walking pace. He brushed a strand of hair from his face and put it behind his ear, moving his earring a bit and making in twinkle for a second. He looked around the village for a moment before wandering into the streets amidst the slew of people, knowing that he didn't even have a snowflake's chance in Hell of finding who he was looking for here, but this was just as good as any other place to start.

The short woman walks slowly through the village, gawking at everything around as if it were the strangest and most wonderful thing in the entire world. Kind of ironic, considering this woman is dressed finely. Her clothing consists of three layered robes; the top one black with a very low collar that dips down to her waist, just past hip length in the front and down to her ankles in the back and great bell like sleeves. The second is golden, with a V neck collar, knee length with an opening that looks like the greek character omega. The bottom robe is white, with a high collar and long overlapping sleeves that all but covers her ankle length black boots. The golden bells at the ends of them make a soft melody as she steps. 'Round her neck were five necklaces; a black collar adorned with a yellow diamond, two cords one black on white woven so they are joined yet look seperate when worn, a crystal ball set in a tentacle on a cord of black leather and a long silver and gold chain with a pendant that looks like a sword. She lifts a hand and scratches at her head, crowned with long ash grey hair streaked once on each side with cyan. Brilliant, yet confused eyes the color of a rainbow glance around in awe.
As she's watching a man sell an apple to another man she runs into Talon. She looks up at him, her face bold, but hinted with the confusion that marks her eyes.

(OOC: Talon has a British accent.)
Upon feeling someone run into hime, Talon quickly turned aroun.
Talon: Oh my, I'm terribly sorry, miss. I suppose that I really should walk faster. Hope nothing of yours was damaged in that little collision. Is there anything I can help you with? I'm terribly sorry.

"Damaged?" the woman parrots, her face a mask of confusion. It takes a second but the meaning of the word comes to her. "I-I don't think so. I still look the same." Just to make sure she glances at herself, her garments were strange to her, no biggie but he did ask if anything were damaged. She looks up suddenly when Talon asks about helping her. "I can't find my my Ju-dal. He's big and black and has red eyes. He used to be behind me but I can't find him."

Talon raised an eyebrow, but kept smiling.
Talon: Now what on earth is a Ju-dal? Some kind of pet, like a cat or owl or something? And what's your name anyways?

The woman shifts a bit, her confusion peeking like the waves during hide tide. "No, Ju-dal is my-my how did she say it, I don't remember." Her rainbow eyes suddenly light up with inspiration. "Oh, Ju-dal is my servant." Pleased with herself she smiles a little and closes her eyes, wondering where on earth the creature could have gone too so fast and so quietly. Then Talon's second question registered. Feeling confident she pokes around in the few dusty corridors that were open in her mind. Unfortunately the corridors held nothing but dust, nothing of use for the question. "I'm not sure, I don't remember," she says softly her voice still holding a faint echo of her previous confidence.

Talon scratches his head a bit and smiles at her again.
Talon: Don't remember? Well I have to call you something! Is there anything you'd like to be called?

Again the woman shifts, there wasn't anything she could think of that someone might want to refer to her by. Woman was too vague, anonymous was a description, not a name her mind managed to say, the man before her might balk if she asked for him to call her Mistress like Judal did. "I don't know, I can't think of anything I could be called."

Talon put his right hand on his chin and pondered for a moment. (OOC: Talon, are you pondering what I'm pondering? lol)
Talon: Well, would you mind if I gave you a name? Hows about Arien?

(Hee hee ^_^)
The woman bit her bottom lip, her rainbow colored eyes drifting to and fro. Arien, Arien? Her mind decided to be enigmatic, not offering any clues what her own name could be. It could be Arien as far as she knew! "I-I guess not. Arien, I like that name where is it from?" She tilted her head to the side slightly.

Talon thought about how to answer her question. He could tell her the truth, but she might ask questions and accidentally bring back some painful emotional baggage. 'Eh, I'll tell her the truth later, I suppose.'
Talon: Oh, that's just something I like to name things.

The woman, Arien, blinks. Something he liked to name things. Did she have something to name things? Again her mind is silent, her mental questions the only thing on her mind. She nods, finally just giving in to something without further dissecting it. A question of a different sort pops into her mind however. "Where is this?"

Who? What? Where? Why? How? Her head was starting to hurt, driving the faint vestements of answers that lurked in her mind back into the depths.
"Um," Arien uttered. Her prismatic eyes darted side to side and one hand perched on her chin. That hand slipped downwards slightly as she thought, trying to remember what she'd wanted specified. Her mind unhelpfully told her that there were many locations around them and unhelpfully didn't clue her in on what they were. The hand comes to a stopping point on a clear orb held in a metal tentacle on a leather cord. The round feel of the orb on her fingers provides a small sense of calm, in a sense spraying away the cobwebs of confusion. She rubs the necklace, bouncing it in her fingers once.
And it glowed.
The light sprang from the orb and landed in a spot just in front of Talon and Arien. The light faded to show the form of a tall, black horse like creature composed of sharp angular features. His eyes were red and threw off coronas of the color, a few black fangs poked through his lips and where hooves would be on a normal horse where on him were claws, two bat like wings hovered over his narrow shoulders. This creature looked to Talon and snorted, turning his attention quickly back to Arien.
"Why toy with me Mistress?"
Arien's became delighted when the creature materialized. She leapt forward and put her arms around the Nightmare's neck happy to see a face that didn't bring on a load of confusion. "Hi Ju-dal," she said.
Judal balked at her contact, pulling his neck from her grasp and snorted again. "Are you sick?"
That just wouldn't do! Serving a mistress that was ill wouldn't bring him esteem among his fellows, in fact they might increase their perennial attacks. He comes to a descision quickly. His mistress was sick and needed treatment, he would show his worth by finding a cure for her sickness. When she was better she would more than likely reward him, perhaps by showing him more of that magic she possesed.
"I shall return Mistress." Judal stepped back a few feet and ran forward, leaping into the air amidst a few gasps by those that happened to be around.
Arien watched her servant take to the skies, not really understanding what he was saying. She watched him go apathetically, on the inside feeling a little dissapointment though, she wanted to ask Judal some things since the creature obviously had some answers to the questions flitting around in her head.

Arien blinked a few times, still looking in the direction Judal flew off in. When Talon spoke she turned back to face him, her small face a picture of confusion. "Um, yeah, that was Ju-dal, but he flew away. I wonder if he'll come back..."

Talon racked his brain for something to say or change the subject with. Anything would do, but upon hearing a soft rumble from his stomach, he thought of the perfect thing to say.
Talon: Well, uhm, Arien, why don't we go, maybe, get... something to eat?

Arien, wait that was her name, maybe. Talon was talking to her. "Eat?" she parroted softly. A rumble came from her own stomach, she hadn't eaten in quite some time, and though she wasn't sure about what he meant her stomach understood perfectly. Fo--od.
She smiled, rainbow eyes glittering. "That sounds good."

Talon smiled at her and started walking towards one of the various little shops, carts and booths in the busy city, trusting that Arien was following him.
Talon: So, you got any idea what kind of food you like, or do you just want to try whatever smells good? I'll eat anything.

Arien followed a pace behind Talon, looking around at all the food shops. It all smelled so good, she couldn't decide just what to eat, in fact she wanted to try a little of everything! "Let's get something, anything, it all smells so good," a big smile traced across Arien's face.

Talon smiled at his new companion. She made him happy. He looked around at all the little shops and carts and pubs and such to eat at, trying to figure out where to start. He closed his eyes and pointed in a random direction.
Talon: Let's start there.

Arien followed his pointing finger. Her eyes wide, innocent and curious like a child's. "Really, ok," she smiled closing her eyes while she did so. The woman took a few steps toward the place, which turned out to be a little café like shop, the bells at the tips of her boots jingling slightly. After those steps she turned back to look at Talon, clasping her hands behind her back.

Arien had no objections to Talon opening the door for her. She tromped into the café and looked around, nostrils flaring to catch the scent of all the wonderful foods in it.
A waitress approached them soon after Arien entered, two red menus in her arms. "Welcome to Bayleaf, would you like a window seat?" She smiled pleasantly.
Arien blinked and turned back to Talon. "Does that taste good?"

The window seat was where they would sit down and there they would tell the lady what they wanted to eat. Arien pursed her lips in thought and nodded a moment later.
If it was the place they had to sit down before they ate... "We shall have the window seat," she said to the waitress.
Who smiled gently and nodded before walking to an available table, a little oak with four chairs set around it placed next to a big window.
Arien sat in a chair next to the window and looked up expectantly at the waitress. She supposed that after Talon sat they would tell her what they wanted to eat.

Talon looked at her and could almost tell that she was waiting to tell the waitress what she wanted.
Talon: Uhm, first you tell her what you want to drink. Then she'll hand you a menu, a list of things you can eat here. Then once she brings your drink, you tell her what you want to eat. Do you know how to read or shall I need to read the menu to you?

Arien tilted her head to the side and nodded slowly. She heard Talon, she just needed to understand it.
The waitress folded her arms behind her back and smiled gently. The woman was probably from out of town.
What to drink? What could she get to drink? Hmmm water, water was something to drink. Red and white, red seemed a little better than white for some reason, she couldn't tell anything else about them. Red lingered in her mind, but she still couldn't tell what it was. Water however, was clearer, water was what she used to wash herself off. It was used to wash and drink.
Could she read? She supposed she should tell Talon whether or not she could do that before telling the waitress she wanted water. The word read sounded familiar, she just wasn't sure how to do it. Her body didn't react, like it had when she wondered what food was. It had something to do with the menu that had what they could get to eat though. Maybe that was how to decided what you wanted to eat? She thought she could pick what she wanted to eat, she picked what she wanted to drink. What to eat couldn't be much harder.
"I can," she nodded confidently and looked up at the waitress. "I would like to drink water."
The waitress nodded and looked at Talon. "And for you sir?"
