"Meh? What was that noise?"
After hours of partying and feasting with the people of Soot Snail, Jinju Ren and the other members of Zhen Liu's travelling group had, more or less, passed the fuck out.
Full bellies, stressed livers, and a whole lot of dancing did wonders when it came to lulling people into a deep sleep. However, that only applied to most people with regular constitutions.
Princess Jinju Ren of the Pearl Scale Empire had the blood of a dragon flowing through her; as such, things like hangovers and bloated bellies were nothing more than mere inconveniences that could be resolved by taking a short nap.
That stated, she was still somewhat cranky and a little groggy due to that aforementioned healing nap being interrupted by an incredibly loud noise.
"Wait a minute… I know that sound…"
A noise that she recognized as being the sound of battle.
