Isadora saw the breeze as a blessing and a curse. It cooled her at bit but also played with her dress. She didn't mean to ask him about his days off. She was thinking outloud. After all she had been alone for three years and never had to hide her thoughts. The question just kind of slipped out. She had been wondering if he would be visiting again. In spite of the fact he was a man, he was another human and he seemed to be nice, not to mention soft on the eyes. "I apologize that came out wrong." Sighed. "I don't get many visitors.... and I have never meet a king's advisor before..." She shoke her head a bit. "I was just trying to be polite to my guest and engage in conversation." She gave him another sheepish smile. "I was going to go for a walk before you arrived." Isidora took a deep breath and sighed, trying not to sound to forward she asked" Would ... would you like to.. to join me?""

Ambrose shook his head and smiled whenever she apologized for asking him about his job and his vacation time. " No need to apologize. " He said with another smile as she mentioned that she was going for a walk and asked him to join her. Well Ambrose was more than willing to do so and he smiled and stepped out of the door so that she could get by. " I would be honored. " He said with a smile as he gestured with his arm for her to lead the way as he watched her intently, but not obviously, waiting for her to exit the home.

Isidora smiled and nodded to Abraham. As she walked past, she could smell him. It wasn't a bad smell.. just the smell of a man. She sighed and continued out the door. Once in the open she turned to look at him to see if was following. She tried to fight with the breeze to keep her dress in place but never even thought about the sunlight. "It feels much better outside. I prefer to stay outside as much as possible during the day. Like i said, I never have visitors so I can pretty much come and go as i please." She was smiling earnestly smiling. "It's like you can feel the gods looking down on you" Without even thinking she closed her eyes to drink it all in, just like everyday when she goes outside.

Ambrose nodded as he watched her leave the home and was sure to follow right behind her. He watched as he knew that she was having trouble with her clothes and he couldn't help but cast a gaze from time to time. After all, he was only human and she far exceeded beautiful. He smiled once again as he heard her speak of the gods ad the sun and the out doors. " I must agree with you. I stayed outdoors most of my life as a child and i too love the surroundings. There is so much to see and so much to live for. " He said with a smile as he looked over at her. " But tell me, why do you, a beautiful woman, choose to be alone? " He asked

This question, which she had already tried to avoid, brought her back. A sadness moved across her face and she looked away again. She took a deep breath then sighed. Looked around at the surroundings then back at him. She tried to smile again. Searching for the right words ..."I have found peace here... alone." She looked away again then said softly "Alone... no one can hurt you." Then she looked up at the sky and took another deep breath. She had given up so much to ensure her peace. Alone is safe... but it is also lonely. She hadn't had any humanly contact in almost three years. She began to wonder... Did the gods send me this man? Then she looked at him again..Is he a god? He certainly looked like he could be. She shook her head. What was she thinking?

Ambrose listened to her and he instantly knew why she was alone. He figured that her husband must have been killed or died sometime in the past and she desired to stay by herself and not re-marry. " I can understand that. Life is cruel sometimes and the gods to not explain to us why.." he said with a shake of his head as he continued to watch her as a gust of wind caught the inside of her dress and blew it rather wide giving him a rather pleasant view of her wonderful assets, which he tried to act as if he had not seen. " So, what do you do, by yourself, for so long? " He asked with a raised eyebrow..

Isidora was glad he accepted her answer and was more than willing to talk of other things. She tried to catch her dress as the wind played with it. Abraham didn't seem to act like he saw anything when the wind tried to undress her, but she still blushed from the thought of it. She regained composure and answered his question. " I have a small garden. I also fish and hunt for my own food. Since it is just me it doesn't take much time to prepare. I go for walks and enjoy the outdoors as much as I possibly can. I pray to the gods for guidance and protection." Once again she spoke before thinking. "Why doesn't the King's Advisor spend time with his wife and family on his days off?" WHAT! Isidora, what did you just do? She looked at him with a startled look on her face. "Forgive me. That's... not... what i meant to say."

He laughed and shook his head as she began to become flustered after asking a question about his wife and kids. " Well i don't have a wife or child. " He said as, Abraham, the man he was portraying didn't have any children. Ambrose however did, and a wife, and technically he did, but that was complicated as it was anyway. Ambrose smiled over at her once again not being able to resist looking at her dress as it blew around. " Ghastly wind no." He said with a smile, as he spoke in a kind way, yet very playful, not trying to embarrass her at all, but by now he was becoming very interested in this woman.

Isidora blushed even more and apologized again for asking. "Please forgive me. I truly didn't mean to ask you such questions." She was , however, pleased to hear that Abraham wasn't married. She was attracted to this man and the more time she spent with him the more she wanted to spend. If he wasn't married, perhaps he could visit again on his next days off. Her color had just returned to normal when he commented about the wind. He didn't say it in a bad way. But just then the wind blew hard again and the gust was blowing her dress in two directions at once. She did her best to maintain control but blushed at the knowledge that he had to have seen something. "Yes very!" She tried to smile. "Normally i wouldn't care but i don't normally have visitors either." she said playfully back to him. She was now faced with a tough decision... stay outside and risk the wind or ... go inside and be alone with him in her small cottage. She looked at him while trying to decide. The wind was blowing his hair and even his loin cloth. She shook her head trying to keep it together. This was after all the first man she had seen in almost three years.

Ambrose couldn't help but give another laugh as the wind caught her dress yet again pretty much showing him all she had to offer. He couldn't help but smile at that, considering she was extremely attractive and he was having a rough time keeping his mind clear and thinking properly when it came to speaking with her. The wind of course blew against his loin cloth, blowing it up some, and after all, it was a loin cloth and thats all. He however, didn't really care what she saw, he wasn't ashamed, after all, he was wearing a loin cloth. " Well, we could return and sit inside and talk, or we could both just get our blows blown completely off by the wind. " He said as he had already caught her glance at his loin cloth. " Either one is fine with me..." he said with a grin

Isidora blushed at his comment then thought for a moment. She could sit across the table from him. Wait! There is only one chair. It would be easier to keep her clothes on. But they would have to be closer together inside. Out here there was plenty of room. It was as if the gods had their own plans. Hmmm. "I suppose we could... return inside." She gave him a sheepish grin then motioned for him to lead the way. After all she only had two hands, and the wind had a mind of its own. She watched the wind play in his hair as she spoke to him and waited for him to lead.

Ambrose nodded as he watched as she held her hands over her chest, holding her dress closed. He smiled and began to head back to her home and in a few moments they had returned to the exact place in which they had started. He closed the door behind them as to eliminate the wind and smiled. " Well, that should help. " He said as a few gusts would come through the windows but that wasn't nearly as bad. He looked around for a place to sit and noticed she only had one chair. " So...where shall i sit? " He asked as he looked around, not wanting to sit anywhere she didn't want him to as his eyes scanned over her back and of course a little lower as her extremely attractive body was having an affect on him.

Isidora followed behind him watching the sun dance across his muscles as he walked. Surely this man is a god. She took a deep breath before entering. Her heart was racing and she barely even noticed when he began to speak. He shut the door and said something. But she didn't really hear him. Then she saw him looking around. She shook her head a little to start her brain again when he asked "So...where shall i sit?" She looked around trying to orient herself with her own house and saw the chair. "You ....can ...can sit.. in the chair." She looked around again and found the cup. "Would you like some more water?" She asked this as she was already filling the cup.

Ambrose smiled as he took the cup of water from her gently before taking a seat in the chair that she had offered to him to sit in. His eyes were, sadly beginning to take over this conversation and this moment. This woman had not had a man in over three years and it had been a little while for himself as well, let alone was he dress very appealing. He took a sip of the water and looked at her. " Where shall you sit? " He asked as he looked around and saw that there we no other chairs, other than her bed...." I do not wish to sit and make you stand.." He said calmly. " Perhaps it would be easier if we both just sat on the bed? " He asked, making sure to keep his tone to one where there was no hint of what lustful thoughts he was thinking.

After Abraham took the cup from Isidora, she had turned to get a small bowl fix herself some water. Before she could get it off the shelf she heard Abraham " Where shall you sit?..." She froze and almost dropped the bowl. She started to fumble a bit trying to get the water in the small bowl. She took a sip of water and heard his words in her head again "Perhaps it would be easier if we both just sat on the bed?" He sounded innocent enough and he didn't appear to be violent. But it had been three years since anyone had even sat on the bed with her and she couldn't get these images of the sun dancing on his skin & wind blowing his hair out of her head. She suddenly felt dizzy. She placed the small bowl on the counter and leaned against it herself, trying to stabilize.
