No he likely shouldn’t have been taking her to her room. It didn’t matter to Aurin though, the Templar had set his mind to the task and he wouldn’t be dissuaded. “You can explain it all to me later.”, he assured the mage in his arms as he turned to march off. His strides began to take her further away from her tormentor, the apprentice, and the Tranquil.
He did slow though as he noted the hesitation in her voice, the slight edge of panic at something. “Easy! You don’t want me to drop you do you?” His voice full half of worry and half of amusement. He stopped though, half turning as he let her look back over his shoulder at the little trio he had left behind. “No I don’t have a shirt.”, he agreed absently as he looked back. He noted Ashya plucking up the book and sighed slightly. That had to be what she was worried about. “The book is fine.”, he murmured softly as he nodded once towards Ashya in gratitude. A smile colored his expression before he glanced down at Beth once again and give her a slightly lopsided smile.
“Now. Are you going to stop squirming and settle down so I can get you back in once piece? I promise to take the back ways. You already know how good I am at finding all of those little known backways to places.” His words were soft and meant for Beth as he stalked off with his back straight. He seemed entirely unembarrassed by the entire situation.
