[EVENT RP] The Reclamation of Tania

[Zanryu]

"Right. If there is truly a battle with Bern, we won't be able to go too far without running into either force or reinforcements from the west. We still need to find Yuri, so I say we stay in town until everything settles down."

Ellie agreed, following Paige to her room. She reattached her quiver and pauldron before grabbing her bow and checked the window - it didn't offer much in terms of a view of the street from here.

"Eli, there are a lot of innocent people in here, we have to help keep this place secure."

"I understand. I'll find a window that overlooks the road, see what I can see; I'll come down in a moment!"

Ellie rushed out into the hall as she checked the doors for one that wasn't locked. She found a knob that turned, and burst into the room to find an elderly man half bare in his bed, fumbling to pull a shirt over his head. He jumped as the door swung wide and Ellie came flying through the doorway; in an instant, he threw his hands up over his face and cried out for help. Ellie rushed to his side and pulled his hands down to his lap.

"I'm sorry sir, it's not what you think! I need you to stay calm, and stay inside," she said with a smile. She helped pull the shirt over the man's arms and gently pulled the collar over his head. "I need to use your window, if that's alright?"

The man nodded shakily as he too peered out the window into the street. "Aye, that's alright. What's happening, child?"

"It sounds like Bern is here. We don't know anything else, not yet."
