"You tell me your full name and I'll give you the second half of mine." she smiles weakly.

Bryce sits on the edge of the bed.

"Bryce Jaime. And you are Serah ...?"

"Fair enough. Cantus. If that earns me any harm telling you that I assure you it will hurt like hell for me but I will end you and anyone who attempts me harm." she says as her face goes solemn.

"I'm sure of it. Serah Cantus, you have my service. I will do my best to keep you safe. And my best is very impressive. You can trust me."

"Says the one who I had to save" she says with a smile

"I am getting quite tired. Maybe I'll nap for a bit." she says starting to doze.

Saxum

Balo runs about the town asking for the occasional bit of money or food in exchange for a quick acrobatic stunt.

I am sick of this life of nothing. Time to make something of myself.

Balo runs toward where he heard that the noble who's wife had been murdered was, maybe he could put his forsaken talents to use.

Saxum

A gathering of guardsmen and a nosy civilians surround the small mansion's courtyard gates. As Balo pushes through to the front, a scarred man with a harassed look glares down at him.
"This site is off limits, boy. Off with you," he says, nodding with his spear.

Several more men can be seen in the courtyard past the gates, some shuffling in and out of the main doors of the manor.

Saxum

Balo pauses before putting on a more childish demeanor.

"Mister Caryotte sent me to run an errand for him, they didn't have what he wanted. I just need to give him is money back" he jingles his pocket.

"I'll only be a minute sir, Please?"

Saxum

The guard lingers on the pocket.

"Lord Amastice said no intrusions. Begone."

Saxum

"But sir, He said bring him the money back if they did not have it, he likes to talk to me, I tell him jokes and make him laugh, I like to try to cheer him up. Please I beg of you Sir Please." Balo pleads with a type of pathetic-ism that only a child can muster.

Saxum

"Whatever you need to do, I'm sure it can wait."

The guard tries to shove Balo away with the butt of his spear.
