"Yes? What would you like?" I asked Heshal as he walked over.

I glance back and put my hand up to stop everyone. I wasn't sure what his game was, but I was in no mood to play after what just happened, but Hershal bowed his head to me.

"You are right, and I should not have let my emotions get away from me, and Joker would have treated me the same way. I am sorry for saying that it was her fault. I am sorry to you as well girl, I did not act properly," Hershal said to Alana and me, but she had become scared again.

I don't think that I was from Hershal himself, but more of the idea that he saw first hand the damage she had caused, whatever that was.

"Can you please run on ahead with Gloria, and let Joker know that I am getting a new place hopefully by the end of today. If he knew of any place with two or more floors that we could rent, that would be great," I asked Hershal, while Gloria was grumbling beside me.

I reached down and pinched the bottom of her ass cheek, and Gloria let out an OwO sound.

"You witch! What was that for?!" Gloria complained, but then jumped out of the way as I went for and pinch. "Fine, I'll go. You're always so violent!"

Gloria being the same build as me and almost as tall, she looked ridiculous with her tongue sticking out. After a couple of good fists shakes from me, Gloria turned and jogged off, infernal woman!

I turned back to the group, and Alana had some of her smiles back, but the rest of her face looked very confused. I looked up into four stoic-looking men with eyes forward and varying degrees of blush from all ages.

Then I hit me, I had just practically groped Gloria's ass in broad daylight. In front of four males that would have quite different levels of experience with seeing something like this.

Oh my, little girl, the poor confused look on your face. I would have to explain to her about the girls before they all met, but I clapped my hands together.

Everyone snapped out of it as I turned and walked back down the road. Braum and Tim caught up and walked with me as the other three followed behind.

I could hear Corbit explaining to both Victor and Alana about us girls and our relationship. Also, our lack of censoring our actions was the way Corbit had put it, and he wasn't far off.

"You are quite the frisky bunch of women. If that would have been a man, he would have lost a hand or head for that for sure!" Braum said with a smile looking forward as we walked.

"Having soft hands and lips afford you certain privileges in our world," I said with a smile as we rounded the Laughing Ravens Guild.

The housing office is two doors down from the Forge. Do you know where that is?" Braum asked when we got to the front of the guild.

"Yes, why? Are you not coming with us now?" I asked, stopping the rest of the group.

"I should go talk to Joker about this, but one more thing. What do you plan on doing here? You're bent on some kind of change, and I don't quite understand it completely, but I think I agree with it."

"I am here to change the way things are being done and the way adventurers act. You have to see the problem that I am referring to, right? If this is going to be our way of life, then we should be living the very best so that we can benefit everyone, not just the best one."

"Good, that's what I thought you were going to say. Always nice to hear it out loud, rather than assume. Okay, I'll get the girls and the stuff down," Braum said before turning to the guild.

That was a bit weird and mysterious the way he was acting, but I was starting to get hungry. I did have a couple of gold coins stashed away, so maybe I could grab some meat!

"Are you all ready to go?" I asked the group of four. The three young men were standing together, but Alana was standing off to the side.

The boys nodded, and I waved them forward, and then put an arm around Alana's shoulder as she walked up. She was giving me a bit of a strange look, but that passed, and she ended up leaning into me.

"Can I ask what it is? Your power?" I asked quietly as we walked.

There was no hurry, and I could see the boys up the head. They were mostly men in training already, so the three could stay out of trouble for a bit.

"I don't know. It's not fire, but it burns. It blows things away but isn't windy. I can't control it, and people die. Our parents left the city after it happened, leaving us behind."

I let her lean into me as we walked in silence for a bit, then I stuck my hand out and concentrated. I used the flame to grow a garden of flowers in my hand, and Alana gasped.

"I and the others will teach you to control your power and you will become loved and respected. I have some coins, so let's go get some meat before all the other girls get here," I said conspiratorially at the end, pulling her over to Benzil's Meatcart, but there were a bunch of people in the way.

They were a big bunch of people with shaved heads and no shirts, so I stepped back. Tim and the others came over and stood beside me.

The big people were trying to make the vendor sell all his cooked meat for an outrageously low price. The seller looked scared, but then so did everyone else around.

I recognized these people and had already killed multiple of them. Now, this Guild was trying to strong-arm the man that I was trying to buy food from?

Fat chance.
