If she had her old hair color and face, she'd be known for great things. The people will get too confused at why she'd belong to the darkness. It was boring to her, being all good, being less free in her eyes. The road was filled with people, the goodies and baddies mixed during this time of night as those who wish to sin go here, marketing, casino, whores and many more. She was here due to curiosity. What did this place really have to offer?

Glancing across the street, her amber eyes became glued to a sign in a store window for but a moment, but a moment too long as she soon collided with a towering figure. Gwendolyn let out a short, but piercing screech as the impact caused her to be knocked around a little but managed to find her footing without falling from her perch. Charlotte's heartbeat quickened.
"My sincerest apologies." A nervous mumble uttered from beneath the cloak. A raised hand pulled tightly down on the hood of the cloak as Charlotte's eyes lowered themselves to the stone streets beneath her feet. The young woman tried to hurry and step past whomever she'd bumped into hoping they would simply ignore and let the incident slide.

"Are you... hurt?", she questioned in her soft-alluring tone, but spoke Joyan. She hated speaking in Fiorian, but if she had to then she will if the girl didn't understand her. The tall girl crouched and offered her hand in genuine kindness. Quilla wanted to try to help. That's what normal people did, right? Behind her, Bai was coming along as the white horse made his way as she was doing this.
Sat Sep 17, 2022 7:28 pm
"I apologise, Joyan not good." She stated in what she prayed was the correct language as she lowered herself into an apologetic and respectful bow. At the very least the woman didn't sound angry, but it could be challenging to tell when it came to foreign languages.
Gwendolyn puffed her feathers a little, still tentatively perched, but shaken from the experience as her beady eyes glanced over the woman and then the approaching white stallion. The gryphon growled warningly at the horse, causing Charlotte to scowl.
"Shhh, it's just a horse." The tamer cooed in Florian again, calming the little beast that whilst quieting down, continued to eye up the equine warily.

Bai stepped onto the ground like some diva as he huffed at the Griffon. Bai had a personality, too much for a horse. She wondered if the rumors from the merchant were true about him. Her eyes studied her own horse and then went to gaze back at the girl. "Hosenka is quite boring to explore alone, and Crimson is quite a dangerous yet full of entertainment," she expressed with uncertainty as if she should let herself be herself or to stay hidden and let her cold shield be her persona once more.
Sat Sep 17, 2022 7:56 pm
"Depends. What does your planned adventure entail?" Charlotte queried attempting to sound as confident as possible as she finally broke the silence she had created. Whilst she wasn't the kind of person to instantly distrust people, one could never be too careful in a place like the Crismon Quarter. However, if it wasn't going to get her directly into trouble, she had no qualms over getting to know this woman and possibly building up a new connection. She was done with her own purpose of visiting this bleak place anyway and if there was one lesson she agreed with from her father's teachings it was that one could never have too many connections.

Quilla wasn't sure what the girl liked doing for fun, but she loved to enjoy simple things. Food, drinks, games and entertainment was enough for her. She didn't need some bizarre adventure to enjoy things. Even if Quilla could be seen as evil, she had morals and just wanted to have fun. If the girl agreed, they'd start the trail down the right side and into the dark alleyway with what appears to be no door.
Sun Sep 18, 2022 8:36 pm
"Sounds lovely. You caught me at a great time. I'm already done with my own business for today, so lead on." Her golden eyes shone in anticipation, she never would have dreamed of even coming to a place such as the Crimson Quarter, much less indulging herself in the sins of this city prior to running away. Now she just wanted to experience everything life had to offer, at least once. Who knows, it could be fun. Whilst the tamer felt Gwendolyn's uneasiness but brushed it off as the gryphon's general anxiety over new people and places.

The door was arched with a rose carved on both sides of the doors. The doors themselves were made of a rich black wood that came from the darker areas of Fiore. It welcomed them both as they opened wide. Each side was someone, a handsome man with gold eyes and black hair as the other side had a beautiful woman with brown hair, a rose in her hair and blue icy eyes. "Welcome to the Black Rose, Mistresses," they spoke in sync and a bow. Their arms dabbed towards the inside as it revealed to have many dark tones; red, black, purple and royal blue. In the middle was a chandelier, lights shaped in roses that hanged on crystals of emerald, green.
"Would you like your company male or female?", spoke the female in a soft tone, almost as soft as Quilla's. Both of them looked nervous, but was it because of her own reputation?
Mon Sep 19, 2022 6:22 pm
"Female." Charlotte finally responded as confidently as she could muster, figuring it would be safer to be accompanied by a woman than a man in this situation. Honestly, she'd prefer neither, but she wasn't sure if that was even an option in a place like this. Although she was still quite anxious about the repercussions of her choice to join this woman now, there didn't appear to be an easy way out of this. The tamer figured it would be best to simply follow along for now, and should an opportunity arise for her to take her leave, she would have to seize it before it could slip away.

She didn't really trust people, but she enjoyed a gamble. Three of them passed through the main room where people sat and ate, waited on by attractive people in butler-like suits. It wasn't her thing as there was a different taste of things in the back. As soon as they went through the curtain in the back the Maid knocked on the door a certain number of times before it opened. "Enjoy your time, Mistress Of Death" she bowed to Quilla before going off to take care of the regular customers. Once they walked in, the door shut behind them automatically, locked for safe keeping. The Bouncer watched them go as Quilla flipped him off for gawking at them both in a judgmental way.
She took a deep breather as she spread her arms out, "Ah yes, the smell of sin...", she whispered. The smell of alcohol, Devil's Leaf and sweat could be smelled easily. The noise of battle and music could be heard as the decor was more castle theme. It was as if this place belonged to a vampire or something. "Shall we get drinks and food first? Or should we go find ourselves a seat and enjoy ourselves?", she wondered to the girl. There were seats close to the battle stage, closer to the bar, or the dancers.

Following her company through, the young woman could feel her heart racing, partly from anxiety, partly from excitement. The strong scents in the air filled the tamer's nose. However, it was the way the worker so casually called the woman beside her the 'Mistress of Death' that caused her eyes to widen. It had become exceedingly obvious that she wasn't just an ordinary woman visiting the darker side of town. She was someone of influence and power. The kind of person it would be best to befriend and remain on the good side of.
"Oh, um, a drink sounds good." Charlotte responded a little hesitantly. She could do with a glass or two of liquid courage before delving further into other activities. She only prayed they wouldn't be spiked with anything stronger.

"Ah, I see you have company today. The usual?", the bartender spoke in Joyan. "No, something sweet with a strong kick at the end for both of us...", Quillareine spoke in her soft, alluring tone. The bartender gulped and nodded. She looked over to Charlotte and chuckled, "I assume you like sweet tasting drinks that are strong so, that's what i ordered for both of us...", she spoke slowly in Fiorian. It took a few minutes till both drinks were slid towards them. He looked over at her nervously, "Cosmopolitan, Orange and Raspberry, rim-dipped in sugar," he bowed his head and waited for her to drink it. "Go ahead, you go first and I will let you judge it," she gave a small smile to Charlotte as Quilla grabbed the raspberry one that looked like bloody red. Charlottes was orange that had a cute little orange sliced against the rim of the glass.

How much she could trust the woman beside her was still up for debate, and the whole ordeal was becoming much more nerve-wracking by the second. However, technically the woman hadn't done anything bad to her directly so far. Surely given the circumstances, if she truly didn't like Charlotte's company she would have done something by now. Right?
Her amber eyes stared at the drink for a moment, it was some kind of cocktail. Nervously she reached out to take the orange beverage, her hand shaking a little, but not enough to spill it as she took an apprehensive sip. The sweet, orange flavour mixed with vodka hit her instantly.
"Delicious." She exclaimed without thinking, "Ah, I mean, it's rather pleasant, thank you." She murmured, with a small bow of her head in acknowledgement.
Sat Sep 24, 2022 2:30 pm
"I will answer 3 questions, only 3 of any kind you can think.~ As a show of there's nothing to be afraid of with me,", She paused for a moment, "As long as we're not at the opposite ends of a battlefield in the future of course," she jested and chuckled darkly as her topaz shining eyes glitched pink red at the mention of battle but went back to her original topaz.

"I suppose I will start simple. What would you like me to call you?" She asked, finally turning to fully face her company for the evening. The Tamer would prefer having something to call her other than 'hey you' or 'the woman beside me' for the rest of the evening. Even a fake name, would be better than constantly feeling like she was being impolite to someone she just met.
