An'Drye took a deep breath, she hadn't told this to anyone before and it was scary to even try "Now were do I begin, remember i told you the celestial and the wise dragons created me as part of a massive large scale plan which not even I know?"
She waits a moment for confirmation, continuing to hug Blossom out of fear, "Well, the other side, the demons and devils weren't happy about it, so they tried to sabotage the plan.... by sabotaging me.... that night in myth drannor they put something in me, something that wants out, to rip me appart from the inside and use me as its skin to do who knows what horrible things...."
She looks at the bandages as she tells her tale, glad that such a good friend was there for her "this doesn't happen very often, it likely won't happen again in years, but when it does it always hurts this much, but if you happen to see me in such a state again.... well sunlight helps... thats the best I could gather so far."

Blossom stared at her friend in disbelief. "A demon.. something evil, inside of you? There's no way!" Though Blossom didn't want to believe it, she couldn't, she already found herself backing away.

An'Drye looks saddened for the first time, she was terrified, not so much of the thing inside as of losing her best friend, somehow she couldn't stand the idea of being alone in the world yet again, "I can keep it sealed most of the time, and its not like its a part of me, part of this journey is in hopes of finding a way to kill or banish it."
She hugs her own legs to hide her face and starts outright crying "I'm sorry.... I'm sorry...."

Blossom felt incredibly guilty by her behavior and devastated by An'Drye's own sorrow. "N-no, Annie, it's ok. I'm sorry!" she said, rushing over to embrace and comfort her.

An'Drye is painfully crying, not so much for feeling betrayed or such, but more so because the memory of what she told Blossom was really painful in itself, her face is a huge watery mess, but she still lifts it up to say "Thank you, for understanding, for being there, for being my friend when i had pretty much doomed myself to being alone for eternity, i never could have survived that alone..."

"H-hey, don't worry... you'll.. we'll think of something! There's no way a nasty demon is going to get the better of you!" Blossom said, with a faint smile. She stood up trying to get her bearings. Should they go back up the mountain side? "How do you feel? Should we keep going or rest a little?"

An'Drye finally manages to calm herself long enough to look around "Well, it looks like we are on the correct side of the mountain at least, we should find the town of Riatavin."
She stands up, the physical pain is like nothing to her, and now you know why, "You did an amazing job with these bandages, but ill still need a good place to rest, sleeping in the wilds would likely cause the wounds to reopen."

Blossom thinks for a bit. "Riatavin? I don't know of the name, though I think there is a town somewhat this way..." Looking a bit concerned she says, "And why would they reopen?"

"Well, because this time im likely to move a lot while i sleep, and the rough terrain mixed in could cause that, im not really an expert in medicine, but my own body is something ive known for a while now, its just difficult to explain why things work that way when youve only know that they just do... over and over again...." she hits herself in the head lightly, stopping herself from feeling all that pain again, she needed to get to a safe place, that was the priority at the moment, so she continued to walk. "At least its good that you can become invisible and dont worry, its only for one night, you... dont mind sharing the bed do you?." it was unlikely that she could rent another room just to leave it 'empty', she personally didnt mind but you never know, she rather ask first.

"So you'll be thrashing around a lot in your sleep.. I'm not sure a bed would help you. You'll probably fall out and hurt yourself!" Or was that not what she meant? Blossom still looked a bit confused. "I mean, if that's the case, I probably shouldn't be near you when you sleep. Anyway, I don't think I would mind, though I've never really slept in one before. You know what's really nice and soft? Snow!" The pixie nods gleefully. "It's too bad it's still pretty windy up here."

An'Drye continues walking, she feels she might just fall unconcious if she stops, "Nah, ill just roll around a bit, in fact with you at my side it shouldnt even be that big a deal, but i cant fly so its more of an effort for me to go all the way back up there to the snow, and given what just happened, im not sure its a good place to be at anyway."
She ponders for a moment, wondering if she had also hit her head, as she had trouble expressing herself... "What else was its... ah yes, i also dont want to risk monsters attacking at such a moment, ill likely not be able to fight back, and this area is in fact fairly filled with them."

Blossom nods as she flies along with An'Drye. "Well, if you say so... if there's that many around, I guess I should be invisible," she said.

The pair reaches the town somewhat safely, avoiding fights if at all possible, An'Drye rents a room and the two go upstairs, then she pretty much just falls over to the bed, before falling asleep she says "Thank you again, for everything."

Blossom tries to remove some uncomfortable armor pieces from An'Drye, but a lot of things, she can't for fear of waking her up or just because they were too heavy and she was lying on them. After that she covers her with a blanket. Blossom took a small portion of the bed to lay down next to An'Drye, and eventually, she fell asleep...

You wake up sometime in the night with An'Drye taking off the rest of her armor, where she apologized, then finished taking off her armor and went back to sleep naked, it wasnt like she had many belongings anyway. In the morning when Blossom wakes up, she finds a plate with a mix of fruit slices arranged in colorful ways, soon after An'Drye enters from the room's kitchen with another just like it "Good morning Blossom, i wanted to show my appreciation for all you did yesterday, and i figured the least i could do was to make breakfast, still doesnt even compare to how grateful i feel."

Blossom had a bit of a rough time sleeping, as she generally never slept at inns, or on beds.. in cities, even. Then there was An'Drye waking up in the middle of the night, but she couldn't fault her there...
When she wakes up, Blossom smiles up at An'Drye. "Oh, I was wondering if that was for me! Thanks, Annie!" she says, plopping the pieces of fruit in her mouth. "Are you feeling better?"

An'Drye smiles and she also starts eating her breakfast, she had spent an hour or so trying to get up as slowly as possible to not wake Blossom up, but she didnt mind, if anything, patience was still one of her most valued strengths "Yes Blossom, my wounds are healed as well, thank you!"
After finishing to eat, her face grows slightly more serious "Still, as unexpected as this was, it has delayed our journey considerably, i was previously thinking we could just follow the tracks and roads to safely reach memnon, but now we will have to go across the desertic plains over to Darromar, cross River Ith from there to go directly to Memnon, it wont be assafe, but at least im now in shape to defend both of us."

Blossom looks up quite curiously, still munching on her fruit. "Such a delay caused by one day of being unwell? I don't think it's such a good idea to go through all these dangerous places then."

An'Drye chuckles a bit, looking back the past few days "Well i prepared in time for quite a bit of delay time, there were just many delays, - she mentions, reminded of certain festival they attended to- besides, i fight really well while im not under the effects of.... that."
"Either way, outright avoiding all the monsters in that area should be easy enough as well, thats why we havent had much trouble in the way, i do kinda know the area like the back of my hand after all." she finishes, pretty confident on her skills to get anywhere quickly if needed to, and otherwise, traveling skills in general.

Blossom smiles. "Well, if you say so!" They continue eating breakfast, and Blossom helps An'Drye pack and get ready before they set out. She sneaks along past the innkeeper and other patrons again, and the journey is mostly uneventful. Until... dun dun dun
