The slave would have helped with the bath if Leon hadn't shooed her away. The woman looked human enough if you ignored the sections of her skin that were overtaken by ruby like gemstones.Once Leon was outside again, Vinny smiled a little, having changed to their male persona and changed clothing. "Yes. I am showing you a place where you can stretch out."
Vinny led Leon up higher and higher, upward on swirling staircases made of strange material and seemed to sway under their weight. Until they reached a hatch that Vin opened and crawled out on top of the castle.
It was night now, seeming to have fallen in the mere ten minutes Leon had taken in the bath. The sky was a swirling mixture of colors, all dancing together and creating stories and shapes that could be interpreted. It seemed like the Aurora lights, but more highly advanced.
