The rooms are incredibly simple. They lack many things which could make the stay more comfortable, but at least there is a lockable door to the rooms. The room consist of one simple bed, and an "extra" bed, which is a blanket and a pillow on the floor. There is a window leading out that is currently open, but that can be closed by wooden shutters. Other than that, there is nothing in the room.

"So, do we want to continue our talk in one of the rooms or is it time for you to sleep ?", asks Lisaa.

Having regained his composure somewhat, Bronsk takes a seat on the floor, crossing his legs beneath himself.
"We were getting some odd look downstairs. Do hyu think there will be trouble?"

"Why should we ? Well, someone might have eavesdropped on us. We talked about Ami and her nijizuishou friends and about the museum. But nothing illegal. They'd just think that we are a bunch of odd venturers."

Bronsk
Bronsk pipes in "So, let's talk more of strange things." He passes a hand across his brow wearily.
"I think tomorrow we should either return to the museum and try and find out more about the artifacts, or go visit Ami's house in the wild. In the wild, Lisaa and I can provide for us, easy. Cities..." Bronsk waves a hand. "I'm not good with them. Too many people."

Tyrgen
Nodding in sympathy, Tyrgen replies "I'm the same. I have tried to live here, so that I could get used to people again. But it would be easier in the wilds." and this time I won't be alone. His eyes flickering around the room nervously, he then starts on what really interests him. "So...now we are alone... what does it mean to you, that we are... what we are? All I know of this is my own past, and ugly stories."

Bronsk
"It'z...more complicated here. At my home, it was very simple; as shaman, iz not strange for me to take the shape of a wolf. I think..." Bronsk rocks back and forth a little as he watches the ceiling for a moment. "I think we have more...potential? For great good or great evil, if we choose it. Vakri tells me I'm being simple, but I think it can be that simple. I think it iz gift, even if we are feared because of it."

A gift and a curse. Karl's face looks grim. Make no mistake. Lycanthropy is a plague. Anyone who gets scratched or bitten by you in your non-human forms may develop it. And they don't keep control of themselves when transformed, they become raging beasts, killing anyone close to them, even their own families. Anyone who survives their attack may also develop the curse, and soon you have an epidemic.

Lisaa

"The infected are the real problem, for them it is a curse. But for those who are born with lycanthropy it is different. It can be a gift of great power. It is their own decision and behaviour how to use this power. Some abuse it and turn it into a curse.", says Lisaa. "If you have to fight someone in your non-human form then fight to kill, not to injure."

Tyrgen
Looking down at his hands, and remembering well their other shape, Tyrgen nods. This all ... tallies, I think. Lowering his voice to a whisper, he goes on slowly: But ... I must say something else. I do not know how it is where you come from. Here, if the people find out what you are, and they catch you, they will cut you up and burn the pieces.

[smart ass]"No, no. It is only the bite1 of a werewolf that carries the disease.[/smart ass] But with what else do you fight when you are a wolf ?", says Lisaa. "Back home in my village werewolves are accepted - well, those who are born as werewolves. But it is different in the human lands and also in many elven lands. I've kept my nature secret from all humans but one."

Ah, good 'ol 'erbs, eh?
Karl grins. I'm amazed, Lisaa, that anywhere accepts werewolves. I've never heard of anywhere that does. Must be quite a culture shock leaving to somewhere with such a different attitude.

"No. I knew how the attitude towards werewolves would be in human lands. It is quite comprehensible - unlike some other customs."

Tyrgen
Nodding, in agreement, Tyrgen answers "True. And much of what we built is very strange, even if what is strange seems normal to most. I grew up ... in the countryside. Coming into the city showed me how odd men are in both." Wolf ways make much more sense.

"Damn." A petite voice suddenly says. The group hears the sound of cloth being ripped and the sound of someone very light moving on the roof above them.
