It was late. Later than recommended for most residents of the temple. Their guest however wasn’t one for regular sleeping schedules however. Manon sat out in the court yard, a cup of tea in their hands. She had been grateful for the hospitality, and the answers that came alongside. With a deep sigh they let their head roll back, then a small jolt to turn the head fully when they thought they saw something. One of the young monks creeping about.

“I’d say shouldn’t you be asleep but,” they gave him the look down, putting the cup of tea down. Eventually catching eye of something on the body. “You know. I know a great salve for that sort of stuff. Mostly for burns, but I’m sure it could help that.”
