Aeon had spent yesterday working outside of town where she was charged with the protection of a six year old girl. The father had hired the Lamia Scale mage to escort his six year old daughter from his house to her mother's house as the parents were divorced and didn't particularly like seeing each other in person. Although Aeon wasn't fond of children, she found it was relatively easy to get along with the little girls as she shared the same serious attitude she did. They very rarely spoke and only stopped for a single bathroom break before arriving at the mother's home. Aeon hadn't even asked the girls name, only learning that it was Caitlin when her mother called her by that name. Aeon had received half the jewels from the father and received the other half from the mother when they had arrived, immediately departing to find someone where to camp for the night.
The next morning, Aeon awoke to a sudden crack of thunder that caused the young woman to instantly jump to her feet in a fighting stance, ready to take on anyone or anything that approached her. Strangely, when her thoughts had cleared from their sleepy state and she looked around the area, she noticed that there was no one and what she heard was the thunder from the storm brewing nearby. The storm hadn't reached it's peak yet but it was on its way to Hargeon Town and the last thing Aeon wanted was to be caught in the storm. Aeon turned to her campfire that had died out in the middle of the night and kicked it lightly, checking to see if there were any embers in case they caused a fire and once it was cleared, she immediately began her walk back to Hargeon Town.
By the time Aeon had arrived in town, she was already completely soaked from head to toe. In the first hour of her walk, the on coming storm caught up to her and drenched her with the heavy rain which continued to follow her to town. She walked up the main streets of Hargeon, taking note that very few people were out and about due to the weather. The actual full storm hadn't hit yet, another half hour or two before it does. "Aeon... Are you okay?" Another member of the Lamia Scale asked as she pushed through the main doors and into the guild hall. "Y-yes I am fine." She responded with a nod, a little caught off guard at first as she wasn't sure people knew her name here. She had only been a member of the guild for a little over a week now and hadn't really taken up the chance to get to know people. In fact she only met those few her first day at the guild guild hall but hadn't seen them since as she spent a majority of her time on jobs. Aeon proceeded to walk over to the nearest available table and took a seat, slipping both her boots of and toppling them over to allow the accumulated water to rush out of them. "Can I get a towel please?" Aeon asked one of the fellow members at the bar.
