Asher shrugged, turning towards the girl. "I never said I wanted your help. I have my own dealings." She hesitated, stopping herself. "Sometimes you have to put your own ambitions behind you in order to help others. I have my own mission, one that may cost me my life. Hopefully, in the end, my death shall not be in vain."
She took in a deep breath, and looked up towards the towering rock. It was tempting not to climb it, reach the cave that promised her freedom.

Cin followed the girl gaze. "You know, it was only a hunch if that cave leads to Asteria. I don't know if it's true, either. I was just bored" she said. And now she was just hurt. At the moment it hurt to stand, but she didn't know if it hurts to lay down, she she didn't try to risk it.
Cin looked around, then down at her feet and back up. "I'm bored" she mused, then deciding to sit down. "Oh, by the way, I'm Cin. Like, with a 'C' not a 'S'. Lotsa people get that confused."

"Good name," Asher said blandly. She looked up towards the rock face again. Maybe it wasn't just a rumor. If so this might be a critical part to her plan.
"Anyways..." Asher started, climbing up on a large boulder and looking out. "Hmm."She sat down on the boulder. Change of plans.
"Did you happen to read anima news in the last town you visited? You know..." she swallowed. How could she phrase this? "The paper that tells what plus anima are in demand for slavery, or are currently being held at Market?"
She didn't look at the girl, knowing she just feel even more stupid when she saw her confused face.
"I heard the King was looking for some more anima," rambled Asher. "I need to know what kind of anima that is."

"Nope, I don't get into that stuff. Slavery is too confusing" Cin said. It was. There was the buying and then the selling and then...wait, it might not be that confusing, but still, she didn't want to get into it. She was fine with her life as it was. She didn't need that crap added to it. She layed down, though it hurt, to think a bit more.
"So...what would you do if you knew that information, Anima?" she asked the girl.

Asher rolled her eyes at the girl. "Not like it's your business." She sat down, irritated. "I just need to know...."
She stood back up and started to pace. "Come on, there has to be some way to get into the stupid castle...." She jumped to the ground. Slave hunters would only bring her to the market, where she had a good chance of being sold to anyone. She needed to get to Stella, inside the castle.
"There must be slave hunters that work directly for the king," she said aloud as she thought, frowning.

"Nope" Cin said, awnsering Ashel even though it wasn't a question. "And if they did, they'd never share any information with slaves or take them to the place, if that's what your thinking" she said loudly. If that girl was really thinking of being captured just for that, she was crazy. Then again, she was crazy too, but in better ways.
"If you really wanted to learn something, go for a job IN the castle. Like a maid, or dish washer, or what ever. That's probably your best bet. You could overhear something from the King's ex-wives or whatever" Cin suggested.

Asher frowned. "I guess...." she glanced away, furrowing her brow. This plot to kill the king was going to be harder than she thought.
She looked at Cin disdainfully. "What about you? Are you just going to sit here all day doing nothing?"

Cin looked over at Asher like she was crazy. "Are you kidding me? No way! It's just...brusied," she said. You really couldn't do much when your back, arms, legs and so on were horribly bruised. Maybe climbing that cliff wasn't such a good idea after all. Eh, there went her idea of a free passage to the other country. She hated paying fees for boats. Where was the point in being a theif if you had to pay for things!?
She sighed. "Once I feel a bit better, though, I might go off somewhere...I dunno," the black haired girl said with a shrug of her shoulders.

"Well," sighed Asher, turning away. "I'm heading to Stella. Might try to sell a few things there..." She brushed away her strawberry hair from her face.
She stretched briefly before shaking each leg out. "Sorry, but it looks like I can't do much for you."

Cin stiffled a laugh, partly failing. She made this loud snorting noise instead, somehow. She covered her mouth with her hand, hiding a large grin. Sell stuff?! What a hoot? A girl that wants to get close to the king (probably to kill him or what not) is willing to sell stuff? Ha. Stealing got you much more money than selling did.
"Oh, never mind me," she said, trying to dismiss the snort. "I'm find here," she said, laying back down on the ground, trying to get a nice nap.

Asher rolled her eyes at the girl's immaturity and ignorance. Her best friend, though she wouldn't admit it, was both plus anima and thief. A good one at that. In fact, they had met because she had tried to steal from Asher. She restrained herself from smiling. With an annoyed glance at the girl, she slipped into her plus anima form.

"Okay, you can go now," Cin said. Personally, she just wanted some sleep. Falling from a height tended to take some out of this girl. That and she wasn't used to people. She just wasn't much of a people person. Yumio was, but that was his job; selling the stuff she stole for him. He was like the awesome brother she never had. She'd believe that he could be her brother if he had a spice name. But he doesn't.
"Wait," she said to Asher, not opening her eyes. "I know someone that could help you. If you want it, I mean," she said, getting up with the help of her elbows. Standing up, she walked towards Asher and whispered into her ear, "In Stella, there are warehouses at the port. Go to number seven and request Yumio," she said, then retreating back to her stop on the ground to take a nap.
[[Congrats on getting 200 posts!]]

(OOC: Thanks!)
IC: Asher took a step back when the girl came up to her, but managed to relax.
"Um, thanks," she said with slight hesitation. "I might try...." She turned her back on the girl, walking away. As soon as she was out of sight, she broke into a run.
"I'm coming Dewy," she murmured softly.
