It's Pronounced "Tiefling" - OTA

[st_affofthemoon]

Zahra needed to get a lay of the land now that she had arrived and things seemed to have calmed down a little. She was sure leaving the room would worry Kash, but she had only ventured out a few times briefly and now it felt right. She had filled him in on everything that she knew happened back home, spent many days enjoying the marvel of hot baths on demand, and discovered what a 'TV' was and tried to get some idea of what this plane was like. Now it was time to experience it for herself.

Zahra did not hide what she was. The red-skinned Tiefling wore a grey dress with a hole cut and sewn to allow her tail freedom of movement behind her. She decided to leave her staff behind, but she had done so after a lot of thought. The humans here didn't need to see her walking around with a weapon, but she felt naked and vulnerable. Kash said they were safe and so she would lean on those words as she navigated the inn weaponless.

She found the pool, crouching down by the water and feeling the cool water against her fingers. She could smell something from the water that told her the water wasn't entirely pure. It took her some time to figure out it was a place to bathe or swim, like a lake in the middle of the forest. She did take note of the heated part of the pool.

Her next step was through the lobby to the bar. Taverns looked similar no matter what plane of existence you were on, it seemed. She felt her stomach growl and after a moment found her way to the restaurant. She ordered the chicken because it reminded her of Scanlan.


After her meal she found her way to the library. There were not as many books as there was in Whitestone or even the Slayer's Take, but there were many. She started to peruse.

Her last stop was to Vex's room. She knocked and waited patiently.

(ooc: Find her anywhere. She has white eyes with no pupil or iris and horns on her head.)

"Oh! Oh! Oh!" She laughed and did a little dance while still holding onto Zahra's hands, "I'll be here for whatever you need. Whatever cravings you have, just find me and I'll make it happen."

She laughed and went to hug Pike again. "I will try not to insist on all the chocolate in the world from you." She really appreciated her friend's enthusiasm and knew she'd be of great help.

"How about this? You can insist on a reasonable amount of chocolate and I will make sure you get it," Pike found her way back to her chair, "Are you trying to keep it quiet for as long as possible?"

[st_affofthemoon]

"I'm not sure quiet is the word... but we're not holding a party either." A part of her worried about what others from other worlds might assume the child was or will be like. "But you're the second I've told and I'm glad that's how it is."

[st_ealthless]

“Well no! The party comes later!” Her head fell to the side. Pike could do the math and there was no way Zahara would have told her before Vex. “Second? That’s not including Kash though, right?”

[st_affofthemoon]

"Right. Kash needed to know before anyone else. A bit unfair showing up pregnant and not telling the man who has no recollection of that happening." She smiled. "I am thankful he handled the news well."
