Noticing Kagarioni shivering in the rain as well, Isokla walked over to the girl and laid a surprisingly gentle hand on her shoulder, "You're cold too?" she asked softly, jer tone strangely compassionate. "I imagine you must be, especially in that armour. I am too." She kept her voice low enough for Kagarioni's ears alone and murmured, "If you have a tent, set it up child, if not, we'll share a bedroll - for warmth." Her tone left nothing to the imagination and any who was foolish to imply that she was speaking of anything other then lying beside her would no doubt get a severe tongue lashing. It was clear, at least, that she was 'suggesting' it for Kagarioni's benefit and not her own, for no doubt she had been through worse, despite her recently half healed injury. "Damn this rain," Isokla whispered as it began to fall more and more heavily, the rumble of distant thunder growing closer as the gap between lightning and thunder grew lesser and lesser. "Set up the tent so I can start a fire and fetch some rocks, if you would, please Kagarioni."
It seemed clear that Isokla had no intentions of sharing a tent with anyone who wasn't female and planned to stay with her student for as long as they travelled together.
