[QUOTE="nonamazing, post: 3528575, member: 12118"] Adele coughs nervously. "[COLOR=Magenta]Working together?[/COLOR]" She looks up at Mikel, who nods slowly. The old priest had been telling her for months that hunting alone was beginning to be a strain on her sanity. She'd been ignoring him, but now it looked like Mikel had taken matters into his own hands. [COLOR=Magenta][I]That sneaky old...[/I][/COLOR] Adele sighs. [COLOR=Magenta][I]Still, I suppose the old man knows what he's doing. And there's been plenty of times when I could have used the backup.[/I][/COLOR] Adele grimaces, holding a hand to her forehead. Beneath her headband, her old scars throbbed, a grim reminder of just how much she'd been relying on luck. "[COLOR=Magenta]Working together. Yes. Yes, of course,[/COLOR]" she says. "[COLOR=Magenta]My name is Adele Fulir--[/COLOR]" She pauses. "[COLOR=Magenat]Just Adele, actually. I am...well, I am a mercenary, I suppose. I have never given it much thought, since I rarely have occasion to discuss my profession with others, but I suppose there is a word for ex-soldiers that accept private work, and that word is 'mercenary'.[/COLOR]" Adele's pale hands tremble slightly as she speaks, but her voice, bitter and defiant, does not waver or betray any signs of nervousness. Still, though her voice is strong, the rest of her portrays a different impression. She is pale and small, dressed in unflattering clothing that does little to draw attention to her. Her only concession to modern style is a brilliant red silk headband, a stark contrast against her milk-pale skin. "[COLOR=Magenta]I suppose I am more likely to think of myself as a hunter, though you may believe it a narrow distinction.
