"That isn't 'all over your face.' And considering what I was close enough to do to you, that's barely anything."

"Excuse me? "

Reyna chuckles, looking at Isla consideringly.

"You heard me."

"I don't think I did. " she retorts looking at the girl questioningly

Reyna smirks and walks back over, bending down to look Isla in the eyes.

"Grabbing your chin is nothing compared to what I was close enough to do."

"And what exactly is that?"

"Oh, dear. Use your imagination. I'm sure you'll come up with something."

"Virgin." Isla said in a reminding tone

"Doesn't mean anything, honestly. Some of my best friends are virgins, and they're nearly as filthy minded as I am."

"That doesn't matter to me. "

Reyna giggles.

"Well, you're just a bundle of innocence, aren't you."

"Do you ever stop talking? '

"No, not really."

"Good to know, "

Reyna looks at the window for a moment.

"Hey. Where do you think monsters came from?"

"What? I don't know why would you ask me? "

Reyna chuckles.

"Good to know you don't really read. Anyways, all the different races of monsters in the Dungeon have a single thing they agree on: we came to exist because of the Tower's god. Its creator. He'liáth. 'He Who Creates and Shines.' We've been around as long as the Tower. We had a rich history, right up until humans invaded the continent. Now all we have are caves and acid mushrooms. What I'm trying to say is, monsters and humans never existed together. Not once. Me being in this city feels. . . wrong. Like the very earth you've claimed has a hatred towards me."

She pauses. "I think the point I want to make to you is that you saved someone who would've killed you."

"Anyone can kill anyone reyna… I saved you because I wanted to, because… I saw more innocence in you than a human child I couldn't just let you die. "

Reyna looks stricken.

"How. . . how would you know?" she whispers.

She looks at Isla, a strange look in her eyes.

"Fear… You were terrified of me. "

"Pretty understandable reaction. . ." Reyna whispers, turning away.

"I never said it wasn't… "

Reyna turns towards Isla slightly.

"What do you. . . want to do? When your head is healed, I mean."

"I um… I don't know what do you want to do? "

"I. . . would like to try to go see where the old city was. Where my people first built."
