I open my eyes just a crack. His hand is extended, as a gesture of fraternity, rather than an offer to get up.
Go on... Accept it. A voice from nowhere seemed to say to me. I knew it. It was familiar. So I close my eyes and nod. The Mark on the bottom of my left foot tingled as the nubs of my would-be arms began to be encased in a grey light. The light extended to his, and dispersed. Now extending from my nubs was a metal arm identical to Aya's. And with a grin, I take it and pull myself up. Then the grey light flashes just once as the arm disappears. "That... would be appreciated, thank you."

Aya looks at her slumped body for a moment, wondering what her movement would be, before his eyes watched the light for a moment, one blink, and suddenly he felt her arm much like his own, but built to her frame.
He ...was honestly as confused as he was smiling in disbelief..."..You have any other secrets I should know about?" He cracked a grin and then the arm was gone, as he placed his hand on his own chin...
"..Like an alchemist reborn..you made life from nothingness.." Aya closed his eyes and nodded, speaking, "..The nearest inn is around a few corners. I'll be happy to take you there myself."
Aya's life had been full of twists and turns, this kingdom one of them- however, he wanted to stay with his respect for her identity. For now, instead of jumping to conclusions and jumping for joy for her ability, he simply nodded to her with a smile.
"Do you prefer any sort of environment? Silent, noisy?" He focused on the inn, knowing one thing- she wouldn't escape his mind today after all had been said and done.

"I could sleep anywhere... Somewhere soft. And warm..." The thought makes me yawn. "Oh. You meant generally, didn't you...? I suppose it depends on what I'm doing. But then again, be it noise or colors, I can blend in anywhere. I am everything, and everything is me, remember?" A slight wink leads to closing my eyes for the next minute. "But... I can't say. I've yet to see the forest, or feel an ocean breeze."

Aya smirked at her comment as he put three fingers to his forehead, shaking his head once or twice. "I'll have to offer you to see the house I used to own in Unda, or in Ariadelvento.."
His thoughts faltered for a moment, and he continued, "Both the ocean or the forest could be lived in from either place.." Aya laughed, "How about I take you to one of the better inns for the time being then..unfortunately the nature sights around here lie behind these walls..and there's only one way in or out. Otherwise the beach would sound like a great place to make camp. I miss those areas."
Aya smiled at her wink and nodded, "But someday when you travel, I'm sure I'll be crossing your path even then, and I can see what you think of the trees, the leaves, the ocean, the rivers, everything that you are. Combined together, its quite wonderful."
His eye seemed to throw a wink back.

"Heh heh... I'll take your word for it for now. And then I can come back with stories of what I've seen... And for each place, maybe a new work of art. You never know."
A heavy sigh escapes my lips. "...I just can't wait. Once I figure out my reason, I think I need to go. This steel is great. I'm at home here... But nature sounds worth seeing... I have more of a calling. I know it... I just want to find it."

"The world is yours if you desire it, and sightseeing, understanding the world...this place. It's one of many beauties for a person to marvel at. I would tell you my stories but..I want you to go in as unbiased as you can. Develop your own opinions of it all. And well. If you do go, you won't be going silently by my watch..I'll have to see you off personally."
Aya explained, "I see each boat off out of here by my approval, when you go..I'll do what I can to give you a good sending off with high hopes of seeing you sooner rather than later. You simply need remember, you're always welcome back, and I have allies more than willing to meet with you should you ever need a helping hand. But I have faith you'll be just fine on your own..but until then, I think I'll enjoy the time I have the world in my very presence." Aya gave her a grin, and knew she would be fine no matter what she decided or where she went. He felt more and more enlightened.

"Heh heh heh... Aya, with you taking the city under your wing, you'll be fine. We'll be fine. Your mind is a beautiful place right now. Keep it this way. Listen to your people. And become one with the city. Then you can become one with the people. And then you, too, can be the world. You'll know exactly my perspective, rather than imagining it. And we can meet whenever we want to, then." A grin crosses my eyes as darkness takes over my eyes. The little "trick" earlier took more out of me than I thought it would. I fall forward on the metal ground, bruising my face and shoulders as I was consumed by sleep.

The yellow eyes of Aya watched Rin as he smiled a bit at her words; normally he hated compliments- he hated people looking up to him..but the end result, that he could achieve her level of happiness and become one with everything as she did..it sounded like a beautiful prospect.
"..Thanks Rin.." He said before he turned around to see her fall as he grimaced and knelt down to turn her around, sighing a bit- he only had his one arm, and he wouldn't risk just leaving her here, so he did the only thing he could do.
He lifted her up with his one arm not amazingly easily, but got her there, and moved her to a wall, kneeling down, then slumping back next to her.
May not have been an inn, but he figured he wasn't going to leave her there alone. And so he sat there, eyes opened, a nighttime persona inside, he simply scanned the slowly turning night time Chalybian area. His yellow eyes were all that could be seen, as he kept guard. His cape acted as her blanket, and his hand stayed on his sheathed sword for as long as he would have to stay up.
