Stepping out of the changing room with only a large towel wrapped around her body Nadine walked out to the water’s edge. The resort she was visiting had gone through a lot of effort in making their own hot baths stand out. It might as well have been a regular pool with how large it was even though she knew it couldn’t be more than a few feet deep at most. Lotus flowers drifted aimlessly through the steamy water, their centers glowing faintly with magical light. In the evening ambiance the scene went well with the area’s name of Sultry Heights.
Her golden eyes patiently scanned the other patrons enjoying themselves looking for familiar faces. She found none, but she didn’t see anyone who looked like a threat, either. These were just tourists trying to have a good time, much like herself. As she stepped into the shallows she eyed the opposite end of the hot spring and its lack of bodies. Nadine leaned forward taking a deep breath before submerging herself and swimming to the far shore with only the quiet sways of her crocodilian tail.
Any water against her skin felt nice, but this warmth brought an easy going smile to her lips. She easily crossed the wide pool in one breath, and surfaced at her destination at a lazy pace. With her back to the edge of the bath she eased herself down until only half of her head was above the water. Between her wet bangs clinging to her face, golden eyes once again set up a silent vigil.
