Stables
It's not uncommon to see the former Knight-Commander wandering about throughout the Hold, but it is a bit of a rarity to see him attending to his horse at the stables. As of late, Alayre been far too busy for his own liking. Of course his horse hasn't been neglected by the stable-hands here but Alayre missed spending time with Durandal. That's while he takes it upon himself to spend time with the white mare today and brush her coat. Now that winter has arrived, Durandal is a tad shaggier than normal. A common trait of a horse hailing from the north but that makes brushing Durandal more of a task than Alayre bargained for.
Courtyard
After spending one too many hours at the stables, Alayre makes his way towards the courtyard for the sake of relaxation. There's something truly rewarding about being surrounded by such tranquility, even if there's a few telltale reminders of the chaos that brews. An afternoon stroll through the gardens is a always next on his agenda followed by a brief visit to the library later.
Library
The library doesn't win over Alayre's interest for long due to the absence of a certain cheeky mage. It's somewhat awkward for him to be rummaging through the aisles in search or a good book; especially with the librarian glaring death his way. While it shouldn't be much of a surprise that rumors have begun about him and Salvatore, Alayre is silently mortified.

No, better to do what could be done than to risk not being able to do anything at all.
But that was just her opinion.
"How do you know we're not demons?" she asked softly. "What defines a demon in this world?"
no subject
No one can be absolutely certain that the Rifters aren't demons or possessed by abominations without potentially harming them. Judging from the test that he done upon the Valkyrie Lenneth, Alayre isn't eager to test his swords against another seemingly frail maid. That would only cause unnecessary pain and suffering, especially if this woman before him isn't a demon. Therefore, what truly constitutes as a demon? Hopefully Alayre can give her some insight here. After all, he battled against such demons for most of his life now as a Templar.
"Demons are literally what they are. They're twisted beasts who are transfixed with all the negative emotions that inhabits the heart of weak and selfish men." Alayre explains as he leans against the trunk of a nearby tree. "These monsters exist only to sway the weak into temptation and they often succeed. Once the soul accepts a bargain with these creatures, the human host is often twisted into a monster beyond recognition."
no subject
It made demons easy scapegoats. The evil that men did could be blamed on a demon.
She wondered if she'd be blamed for terrible things, if anyone other than Cole found out what she was. Or, well, used to be, anyway.
"What kind of bargain, do you mean? I can't imagine why someone would ever want to be inhabited by anything, let alone a bad feeling."
