It's funny...

He didn't think he was that drunk but apparently he was... because she's not here...

No bickering... no recreations of her death... no forcing him to kill her once again...

Just silence...

Just him... and the void he lingered in now.

Pure bliss...

"Thank god."

He relaxed, letting the darkness soothe him with it's peaceful quiet... feeling so comfortable... lying down on a cushioned bed...

chirp

What was that?

chirp chirp

Youji opened his eyes, finding himself on the bed of a quaint inn... however the change of location wasn't what was the focus of his attention... it was the bird sitting on his foot.

chirp chirp!

Youji gave a slight groan as he shook his foot... trying to shoo the bird away and failing miserably as the winged creature remained on his foot...How on earth was it staying on?

CHIRP CHIRP CHIRP!

"Shut up, I want to sleep."

CHIRP CHIRP CHIRP CHIRP CHIRP CHIRP!

Youji shook his head as the annoying creature kept chirping at him... cutting into his silence...

CHIIIIIRRRRRRRPPPPPPP!

Youji sighed as it was very much aparent that this bird was not about to let him get anymore rest.

"Stoppen Sie es!"

The bird stopped chirping while a rather surprised Youji sat in bed. Did he just?...

"Warum bin ich sprechender Deutscher?"

Youji clamped his hands over his mouth... What on earth was going on? Why was he speaking in German? Ok granted it wasn't like he had never taken a course in German before but still for him to start yelling in that language to a bird?

There was something going on here... he had a feeling he should know why this was happening but for the life of him he couldn't quite come up with an explanation for this...

The bird flew off of his foot towards an open window... for some reason this prompted Youji to get out of bed and approach the window as well... however unlike the bird he did not go flying into the late morning sky...

Instead he watched the activity outside the inn... There Nagal was sawing wood, Totka was plucking a goose and Omida was chopping up turnips... As the three worked on thier chores, Youji could pick up pieces of their conversation...

They were all speaking in German... fluently.

So caught up on that detail of language choice, Youji didn't notice a newcommer until Nagal spoke up again... The ahem females stopping their conversation as well...

"Nicht wieder..."

Picking up on Nagal's utterance of displeasure, Youji turned to see the cause of the statement... A hunchbacked figure came creeping down the path towards the innkeeper... short white hair... scars... and a crazed eye, fixating on Nagal as the inkeeper hurriedly bowed in greeting to the mishappen man.

Well that explained the odd reaction from the others...

"Greetings Mr. Farfol. What can I do for you?"

"C...candles"

"Candles? We're short on them ourselves... I don't think we can get you an"

Nagal stopped quickly as he dodged a knife being thrown at him.

"Candles it is!"

Nagal scampered off.
