Cy couldn't help himself again, except this time the laugh came rolling form his belly. "Your camp?" He laughed again, stepping into the circle of slowly dying light. "This is not your camp woman, these are the ruins...They are not yours." He shook his head, sweeping his hand out to indicate the land. "This place belongs to the wild, the creatures that live by the moonlight." He looked her up and down. "They are not yours to be offended over because i stepped on some ground you claim as yours."

Dawn considered his words a moment.... then conceeded the point... "You still have not answered the question of who you are." she said simply, standing striaght and tall, sword tips at the ready before her, completely on her guard

Cy shook his head. "Replace the swords in their holders. I mean no harm." He dipped his head forward in a low bow, offering the back of his neck as a sign of trust. He didn't really trust her but still, he didn't want to kill her either. Cy looked up from under his cloak, his eyes for the first time showing, catching the moon and reflecting it back in his eyes. "Cypress." He said this simply, no last name, nothing to reveal himself. He straightened, watching her.

Dawn hesitantly put her swords back in their scabards, then gave a bow of her own, "I am Dawn.... Well met Cypress." she said as she stood back up to face him squarely

HE smiled broadly, pulling his cowl back enough only for her to see his eyes. "So Dawn..." He stalked towards her predator like, graceful. "What are you doing out here in the middle of the night alone?"

Cy smiled broadly. "I was simply wondering what a woman as pretty as you could possibly be thinking staying out here alone." He leaned forward a bit, the shadows playing over his moon reflecting eyes doing odd things to his appearance. "There are dangerous people around." He tilted his head. "Dangerous people and dangerous creatures."

Dawn smirked... Not flattered in the least... "And what makes you think i'm not one of them?" she said dryly, "I may be a woman... but i can take care of myself... have been for years.' she said and flipped her head a bit to the side, causing her long red-blonde hair to flip over her shoulder, revealing her pointed elven ears

Cy rolled his eyes. "Didn't say you couldn't take care of yourself." He walked around her, walking back towards the other side of the clearing, the one closer to the ruins. "I just was wondering, is all, what with the fact that you are saying you know how to look after yourself..." He kicked lightly at her fires embers. "And yet you know no better than to light a fire that made you so obvious I could have had you a while back." HE shrugged.

Sawn couldn't dismiss the truth of his words.... she sighed... "Cypress..." she said stepping forward a bit... "I am sorry if a came off as rude... i am just a little road weary and edgey." she tried to explain. her hands hanging easily at her sides now but still comfortingly close to her sword hilts

Cypress glanced fleetingly down to her hands then back to her face. "Eat and rest then." He gave a soft chuckled, movin ghis head just right for the cowl to drop back ove rhis face. "Re-light your fire." He smiled, his lips the only visible thing. Cy took a nimble leap up to the edge of one of the ruins, resting there before turning and sitting.

She watched him, still not quite sure about this guy... "Are you just going to sit there and watch me then?" she asked curioulsy, not moving to do any of what he'd told her.

Cy smiled broadly. "Yes..." He tilted his head. "Does that bother you, woman?" He laughed a bit. "I will save you from anything that wants to eat you." HE glanced down at her, an amused smile across his face. "After all...you are a beacon without the fire."

Cy smiled a bit more and went back to her, sitting by her fire. "Well then lady, go on.." HE indicated the area, trying to tell her to go about her business."
