Turin

Turin felt his face flush as she had mentioned the sleeping arrangements. However, being a warrior that learned to think on his feet, and roll with the punches offered in answer:

"Well, we must remember that even though it appears that we are safe within our own home, we are still in the middle of a city owned by a man that works for the enemy, so we are still in danger, as much as we would be sleeping in the wilds. While two people sleep, one in each room, the third will remain here near the door in case of a break-in. I do not think that all of us should sleep at once. I'll take first watch, if it pleases you. Who wants the next?"

Turin was afraid that he was fighting a war here between this girl and himself that he'd eventually lose, but a fighter does not stop fighting, even when he knows the odds are against him.
