Numira first noticed that Kiernan wasn't around and so her first conclusion was that he would be nearby, she wasn't willing to believe he would simply vanish for good. She got up off the bed, grabbing her cloak and pulling it up around her shoulders and neck, though she left her head and hair exposed, perhaps only an oversight on her part as she went tot he door. This was her first obstacle. The handle didn't turn the same as yesterday, in fact it felt stuck. She paused briefly and stared at it. Was it locked? Old things like this were rarely ever used anymore, but still she knew they existed. She examined it a moment before she noticed the small turning button on it.

With a soft twist then a press she heard a click and th e door opened. Had she been locked in tight, she probably could have destroyed the door entirely but she doubted the owners of the building would have been too happy with her. Her steps down the stairs were light, she gently bounced on the balls of her feet, unaware of the smile on her face. This entire place had such a strange feel to it that she enjoyed.
Her smile broadened when Kiernan called her, she remained almost completely unaware of the other early rising patrons, all of whom stared at the verdant green hair among her other strange physical features. Even the barmaid stopped in place, almost spilling everywhere the drink that she was pouring.

Numira noticed the gesture Kiernan had made and made her way over to him, climbing onto the stool and staring briefly at the biscuits, the smell of the confections was strangely sweet for the odd brown they had, she relented quickly and took one, biting into it then smiling widely at the flavor a moment later, her other hand rested on her cheek again, it was a sure sign that she was enjoying it. Though her attention then turned to the map Kiernan was looking at.
Neural augments to her sensory perception was allowing her mind to make sense of it as she leaned closer to see some of the names and places,
"Draskone..? Austaros..? What are these?" She rang her finger gently along the border between them, but then glanced at Kiernan for the answers she sought.
