A bit akwardly, a bit suspiciously

I got more than a few wayward glances and pointed words as I made my little run-eventually, throwing open the door to let myself in. Fortunately for my decency-didn't seem to have many people there. At least, in this entry area I only saw one surprisingly young figure there. "Oh, thanks heaven-my friend here needs help!" I say, setting her down on the counter-and then taking a lot deep breaths. That bit of exertion had taken a lot out of this body. The main takes a quick glance over the both of us, before dryly noting "Yes-and some clothes as well. I'll carry her to the main barrack, my master should be able to tend to her shortly. Do yo have anywhere to be? He may have questions he wants to ask." He stares me in the eyes with an intensity that is rather uncomfortably. "Sure, I'm not exactly inclined to head out as I am right now. Speaking of-could I bother to ask if you have any kind of spare clothes I could use?"

He seemed uncertain, eyes roving up and down my body for a moment as he considered. "I'll see what I can do." He picks up the patient and takes his leave, leaving me along for a moment-until he comes back, a somewhat dirty dress in hand. I don't even as questions as I snatch it and throw it over myself. There's no small amount of difficulty as I try and squeeze into it-it seems like the last owner was at least half a foot shorter than the form I'd taken. "Thank you-a real lifesaver. Well, I guess your master will be more of a literal one." I give him a nervous smile as I wait.

Soon enough, a much more wizened old man came out from the back-white robes with symbols I don't recognize on them. "Hello-might I ask a few things of you? Like, say, how she came to be this way?" I may not be the best speaker, but I had a little bit to prepare for this. "Yes. We were attacked by a monster on the road-I barely escaped when it got my clothes instead of my flesh when it grabbed me, and she...wasn't half as lucky." His expression was stony as he continued interrogating. "And the mark?" Alright, play dumb on this one "...mark?" He poked at his own stomach. "A big glowing thing, right here. That also got there on this attack? Or did she already have that? Actually, better question: how is she alive? She's oddly healed up already for someone who just got attacked by a monster."

"That one's easy-I'm a Priest myself, and was able to stabilize her-but sadly, not make her whole." He gave out an impassive. "I see...I'm not sure there's much to do, but I'll see if I have anything that might help." before scurrying into the back-leaving me to just wait yet more.
