Zulma smiled at Gren. "She is cute." she commented with another smile.
To his comment about sitting down she raised an eyebrow and headed for a sit as she removed her coat.
By habit she looked in the corner where Angeles was usually sitting, but the vampire was not there, instead someone else was there. Zulma looked at him.

((okay, to catch you up.... would take too long >.>;; but Angeles attacked MacPere's mother and went to go live with the Valentines... for a complete story ask Gren, he's been here the whole time and i went missing for a while trying to find work.))
Emily looked at Zulma and pressed her face against Gren's shoulder before taking Gren's face in her hands before pointing up the stairs and saying again, "daddy..." before sniffling again and reaching for where MacPere had gone.
Hoshiken sat up straight as Zulma looked in his direction and then stared at him. He put his hands from the top of the desk underneath it and looked at Gren as if asking for help.

Sosol was downstairs in a heartbeat, stopping as he saw the woman that Azana had spoken so much about whenever the Inn came up in conversation. The innkeeper...
With a smile, he walked up next to Azana, offering a polite bow to Zulma. "It's a pleasure to finally meet you," he said as he rose. "I'm Sosol...I've been helping out around here in your absence."
Azana smiled as Sosol introduced himself, a hand on her hip. "Best bartender in Gaia, if you ask me." She gave him a wink before waiting her turn to greet the innkeeper properly.

(I told her already...P: )
Gren nodded. "He's fine...he's just mad, cause of the ruckus the other day. Just leave him be, and he'll be fine. I'll talk to him later."
Gren nodded to a couch. "Shall we?" At Hosiken's look, he shrugged. Not like Hoshi'd done anything wrong.

Zulma detached her eyes from the man sitting at Angeles's table to Azana and Sosol.
She smiled. "I heard about you Sosol. The pleasure is mine." She gave him a bow and a friendly smile. She chuckled at Azana's comment. "If you say so Azana, then I believe you. Thank you for your help." she added to Sosol.
She heard what Gren said to Emily but did not want to ask anything more about it...yet.
She turned back her gaze towards Hosiken and asked Gren. "Who is that man?" she was trying to remember, but she was sure she had never seen him before.
((Angeles, thanks for the infos! smile
What does Hosiken look like? Angeles, if you want to rp Baldur, he is back to being yours wink ))

Gren shrugged. "One of Angeles' summons...Hoshiken. Not a bad guy, so far."

"One of...Angeles's summons?" Zulma repeated puzzled. She looked at the man with an emotionless expression.
A lot more had happened than she expected.
"Where is Angeles?" she asked, but feared the answer.

"I should thank you, Miss Zulma," Sosol replied, probably a bit too formally for his own good, but she was worth the respect in his opinion. "I have found being here quite fulfilling...both serving and protecting."
"Oh, yes," Azana said, finally reminded. "I'm not sure how much you've heard about the changes around here...but this Inn has been designated Neutral Ground by my employers. Three of us are posted here to defend the Inn and its patrons...something that has, unfortunately, been necessary lately." She reported it, first with pride, but followed by a tinge of disappointment. She cared deeply for everyone within the Inn's walls...their being in danger was something she never wished for. For an Inn of Peace...she had to fight a lot to keep it that way.
At the question of Angeles, Azana looked away, pain clearly flooding her expression. "She...I'm sorry...Valentine Manor..."

((Okay then ^^ Hoshiken has white skin, white hair and a golden sort of feather is the best description going from his forehead and over the back of his head. His eyes are blue and he's wearing white robes))
Hoshiken crouched somewhat as Gren introduced him but tried not to look too guilty. As she asked where Angeles was though he winced and murmured to himself, "all hope is lost now," Emily clung to Gren and continued to hide her face in his shirt, only taking occasional peeks at Zulma.

One under the chest of drawers... One in his wardrobe... and one in a waistcoat pocket. What luck... Three shots at freeing his mother's slowly cracking mind and keeping his loved ones safe... Strangely enough, if he were to describe the blood-lust he was suddenly beginning to feel, it could compare to all those years ago, taking up the letter opener and preparing to kill...

Sighing, Gren led Zulma to the couch, sitting her down. "Storm Soother, please, Sol."
"In short...Eli's mother came over on Friday, trying to talk me into convincing Eli not to sell his company. She was going to blackmail him, and I was intent on sorting her out myself. Angeles bit her in the neck and hauled her to her family's mansion, Azana and Sosol among a few others followed, getting his mum back, but...she's now able to be controlled by Angeles. Angeles, by the way, hasn't returned, and was apparently willing to attack friends and foes alike. I'm blaming this curse that Lucifer put on her, but I'm not exactly pleased. Eli's mum is in the hospital by now, and we're all trying to settle down..." he said, looking away slightly, petting Emily's head gently.

Zulma froze at Angeles's words. "The Valentines' mansion?" she echoed.
She remembered painfully her last trip to the mansion. Still wondering how she survived.
Gren dragged her rather than led her to a seat. She listened to his story without a word, nor question.
At the end of the summary, she sighed.
"I have been gone for too long...and yet I am not sure how long I will be able to stay." her voice was sad and tired.
"I am sorry for not being there when you needed me." she said with another sigh.
The innkeeper looked older than before. Her skin was tanned and dried by the winds. She petted Baldur unconsciously. She did not know why she had come back to the Inn, yet she had secretly hoped to see Anansi.
Clearing her throat, she asked with a little blush on her cheeks. "Is Anansi here?"

He placed a hand onto Zulma's squeezing it slightly. "But you are here now...and that counts just as much in my book. I'm sorry..."
"Anansi?" he said, blinking slightly, thinking of the panther. "I haven't seen him around...not since you were last here."

Zulma squeezed back Gren's hand.
"You are a true friend." she whispered.
She was disappointed by Gren's news, but brushed it away. That was a selfish request. It did not matter. The Prince would probably never come back.
She needed to be there for her friends. That was what mattered.
"I suppose that going to the mansion would be stupid?" she asked to Gren with a smirk.

Sosol didn't even need to be told, briskly walking back to the kitchen and putting some water on the boil. He pulled out the tin, a frown crossing his face at how quickly his blend was being depleted. He'd have to make more soon...
Stormy weather... He thought sadly to himself before shuddering, a vivid vision flooding his head. A gunshot, a cold gaze...Angeles...
He shook his head, grasping the counter to try and steady his hand. Someone was going to kill Angeles...but he couldn't place who. "I think...I'll need to make this batch a bit strong..."
Azana balled one hand into a fist. "I did everything I could...we were surrounded...she wouldn't leave," she explained, clearly angry at herself about the situation. She watched Sosol emerge with one of the largest teapots in the house, and she gave a small sigh. She did everything she could...she saved Eleanora, kind of. That "kind of" gnawed at her, though...
A teacup landed in front of Zulma on its own saucer, and Sosol filled it with an extra-strength infusion. He turned to Gren and Azana and repeated, serving himself last. "We're all here," he said, reinforcing Gren's statement. "Everything will turn out...it always does."
