Maybe if they can get hold of a tent (because Araceli refuses to be completely naked outdoors unless she's on a beach or in the water) then she can procure some warmth balm, get Korrin to lie back and stretch out to massage out any aches and pains. It's only fair after everything Korrin did for her when she was healing. "I can keep them out. Lockpicks are as good for that as they are for getting into places and things someone wants to keep you out of."

After all, that's part of her recommended healing coming from Bruce himself so after a night like tonight she's earned it. "Well sometimes it's a way to earn a living. Men and women come to the brothels for something they're too scared to find elsewhere. It's a strange sort of trust. Still the first to shame you about it in the light of day. That part is where being a bard and my job at home aren't so very different at all."

Laughing at the idea of a tiny Korrin - although that's hard to imagine, even a young Korrin would have made any age of Araceli look small - she can picture it. Hopefully not setting things on fire with any accidental magic. "I never knew it was so popular. Too much could get damaged, maybe nobles had them at some of their parties." One of the others would have known but that all would have been before Araceli's time in the guard since she'd remember firebreathers. "Could mages ever do that? It comes out of your hands, no? And I don't think most, if any, of them are mages are they? It's performance. Practice and skill and timing. It looks like magic but it isn't."
