In the morning, Rygus was awakened by the creaking noise in the kitchen.

He rubbed his eyes and groaned, "Who's over there?"

As his sight began to clear, his face grew a scarlet red.

Helle was in the kitchen making breakfast without her regular clothing. Her hair was down and she was in her undergarments. 

"Oh, Rygus!" She walked up to the blushing man, "Do you have chocolate sauce in your house?"

Rygus covered his eyes with his hands, "Helle! What are you wearing?!"

Zereth and Xarius were interrupted by the voices and walked out of their room as well. 

"What's going on out here?" Zereth complained, "Why are you guys making so much nois-"

They saw the reason of the commotion and started panicking.

Xarius took of his shirt and lend it to Helle, "G...go put some clothes on!"

"Geez, what's the big deal? Never seen a girl in her undergarments before?"

"Yes!!!" The three guys yelled in unison.

They pushed Helle back into her room and slammed the door.

"I thought I was going to have a heart attack!" Rygus sighed. 

After the commotion went down, they started to get serious. "Anyways, we will go north towards the Wintry Mountains, where the experts suppose that the Poison will be hiding in." Xarius explained.

Rygus interrupted the plan, "Oh, the Wintry Mountain! We can go visit my family there! I think that's where the family is staying!"

Xarius continued as if no one has said anything, "Like I was saying, we will go to the Wintry Mountains first, if else fails, we will look for clues at the directions which they went."

"Sounds like a good plan to me." Helle appeared behind them and commented.

"You're done changing?" Zereth asked.

"No, not yet. Xarius, did you bring bandages?"

"Yes. It's in my bag."

"I'll go grab it."

"What does she need the bandages for?" Rygus whispered.

Xarius answered back with a somber tone. "Scars; old scars from her past. You don't need to know the details. It's a story that is better kept forgotten."
