"Oh, one last thing before you go, my dear" Kallian's father, Cyrion said to his daughter while she was busy putting her mother's pair of boot's on, something that she had apparently wanted to give her prior to her death. "your martial skills; knives, sword's, dagger's...better not mention those to Nelaros"

Kallian simply shrugged "he'll find out sooner or later"

"Later" Cyrion said firmly "definitely later. We don't want to seem like troublemakers after all"

Kallian sighed, in addition to being rather skilled in bed she did also know her way around a few weapon's like dagger's, hidden knives and sword's thanks to her mother. "Fine, I'll keep quiet about it"

"Good" Cyrion smiled "now go find Soris, the sooner you find him the least amount of time you two have to escape" he joked.

"A small chance is still a chance" Kallian grumbled, still not too happy about being tied down to one man rearing itself today.

"Still have your mother's smart mouth I see" Cyrion laughed "now go find Soris"

"Yes, yes, I'll find him" Kallian relented as she finished slipping her mother's snug leather boot's onto her feet.

Stepping outside the house Kallian walked through the slum known as the Denerim Alienage, the moment she stepped out she already saw a group of her kind getting drunk which she couldn't help at laugh at.

It was then that Kallian noticed one of the young elven women, Nessa was looking rather sad as she stood with her parents.

"Hey there" Kallian said as she approached Nessa's parents "are you not staying for the wedding?"

"afraid not, the human who owns our building sold it for storage space" and before Kallian could ask if she could help her father continued "and dont try and help, we don't need it"

Kallian did a double take at his rudeness "...oh"

"What my husband means to say is that you are very kind, but we can handle ourselves"

Kallian shrugged "fine, enjoy your trip"

"Wait!" Kallian heard Nessa's voice as she walked away "can I talk to you for a moment"

"Sure, I guess" Kallian replied

"I apologize for my parents, they're too proud to accept help, much less ask for it. They'll work in the labor camp and they'll expect me to do the same but.." she trailed off "I...I dont like the idea of being surrounded by human men who haven't seen a woman in month's"

Kallian could certainly see why Nessa would be the target of human men's lust, she was certainly a very attractive young elf.
