The evening air smelled cool and crisp as Tamwyn lowered himself into the hot spring the days training and practice over and done with. He was already strong and personally he felt he had reached the peak of his capabilities physically. However that did not mean that he could stop training. Otherwise he would lose that physical prowess. His naked form, mostly unscarred from his time with Raiju with the exception of the vertical one going down his eye, was lean and powerful and his broad shouldered form relaxed obviously as he let the hot spring water relax him. Steam rose from the spring and he would lean back, enjoying the cool night air as he looked up into the sky to see the stars begin to come into existence. The sun had yet to fully set but it would do so soon enough. His sword leaned against a nearby rock and his armor sat upon it. He had come here directly from training. He had given Walter specific instructions that he was not to be disturbed and the man would ensure that was the case. His majordomo was the same man he had doing the job in Kumogakure and he had offered him the position when Tamwyn had arrived here in Darhkvale a week and a half ago.
Walter had replied to the letter accepting the position and stating that he would arrive in about three days. Sure enough he had arrived on time and found his charge had been in good hands in the form of Allen. Now relegated to second in command in the staff team. Although the man seemed to not mind. Indeed he actually seemed to prefer the position and he and Walter had taken to each other quite nicely. Neither would disturb him this evening, nor would they let anyone else do so. With the exception of one of course. The only individual, so far as he knew, in the house that had specifically been ordered to 'take care of him.' Would go where she pleased and do so with an ready smirk and a dare to stop her. Priya and he had grown close somewhat quickly. She helped him deal with the reality of Yenn's death, deal with the paralyzing depression. She held him as he slept, or let him hold her, and he couldn't seem to sleep any other way at the moment. She hadn't seemed to mind yet, although they had done no more than literally just sleep together.
Tamwyn leaned back on the rock and took in slow and steady breaths, closing his eyes, although keeping his ears open to his surroundings. The house had a security team so Tamwyn knew no one would sneak onto the premises that wasn't supposed to be there but that didn't mean he let himself get sloppy. Idly he considered his intentions. Soon, within the next few days, he would leave, traveling around wherever life struck his fancy. Priya would join him and they would travel together. He hadn't fully considered where they would go yet but he would probably just pick a place from the map that seemed to work with him. After all, he didn't have orders to follow anymore. Did not have duties to perform for a military power. His only task from his sister besides protecting her when she needed it was keeping an eye out for possible lucrative opportunities for her to take advantage of. Which he could do as he traveled with no issue. He had total freedom of movement for the first time in his life and he didn't know what to do with it, go figure. Still, he would figure something out.
