After rescuing Eilownia from the Elaide Brothel, they traveled slowly on horseback back to Sola. Many Solans eyed them nervously and suspiciously, whispering quietly amongst themselves as the men's horses walked on through the streets.
"We'll stop here." Marix said, bringing his horse to a halt in front of a large inn. There was a path to what looked to be luxurious stables in the back.
After instructing his men to wait outside while he checked the rooms, he dismounted and then held his arms up for Eilownia.
"Come to me."
She placed her hands on his shoulders and slid off into his arms. He let go only once she was steady on the ground.
Marix took her hand in his and led her inside.
As he relayed how many people would be staying the night and how many horses, Eilownia looked around at the interior, her eyes practically sparkling.
