| Taking his hand slowly from the flame, he looks at the woman. "Who are you?" | |

| he sees a friendly young face looking back, with straight brown hair. "I am the keeper of this fire." | |

| "Thankyou for your kindness, keeper of the fire, but you are not who i am looking for." His voice sounds mournful, sadness in his eyes. | |

| "No...you do not." *she reaches into her cloak and pulls out a flask, glowing a warm colour. like the fire, he feels drawn to it as she hands it to him* | |
|

Captain Raeven

| He takes it gently, and holds it to his chest, lest it slip from his bandaged hands. "What is it?" | |
|
| |
Gorath
| Subject: Re: Fading Flames 2018-06-21, 00:29 | |
| "It is an estus flask. Drink from it. It will heal wounds, and lend strength to tired bones. Should it empty, you need merely rest beside a bonfire, and the fire will fill the estus anew." | |

| Still stood at the top of the stairs the knight begins to eat what little food he has left, watching the fire keeper and the stranger as they talk | |

| “The last one who said that robbed me” He walks down the stairs slowly, his lack of trust completely evident. Finally in the light, both strangers can make out some of his features, his eyes are dull and grey, a sign of the hollowing having started to take its toll. His hair is shoulder length and messy, with only two braids dangling from his temples remaining of any prior hairstyle. His skin has started to grow taut as it deteriorates, making his age anyone’s guess. | |

| Looking at the thin strip of bared flesh at his eyes, it is evident the hooded man is in the later stages of hollowing. His skin is parchment thin, stretched across the bone, and but a single lock of dirty blonde hair is free from the cloth and bandages wrapping his body. | |

| As they speak, the ragged man looks at the flask, then tucks it into his cloak, slides his sword back into his belt, and begins the climb back up the stairs and back out to the long road. | |

| The man regards the knight, then shrugs, very slightly, and continues on his way. along the road. | |

| The knight follows him, keeping several meters distance between them | |

| after some time walking in uncomfortable silence, the bandaged man speaks. "Why do you walk the path?" Each word has a pause, as he drags in a rasping breath | |
