[QUOTE="Myth and Legend, post: 5069996, member: 82679"] Lora had not slept well last night - the cold, hard ground and the morning dew dampening her blanket had ensured it. The girl woke up bitter, with a strong yearning for a hot bath and a clean change of clothes. She was met with a surprisingly good breakfast and an interesting decision by Martoumum. As much as Lora disliked socializing, deep down she loved making decisions, being in charge and being challenged. It was in her blood, and it made her happy, even if the lass tried not to show it. When Mart handed her the pouch, the young girl weighted it carefully, trying to guess how much gold was inside. However, her attention was quickly snatched away by the Arcane items that were presented, and for a moment the Wizard in her overwhelmed both the pouting teenager and the female leader.
