Raven sat at a table in the Dahngrest tavern. The adventure had ended and he was ready to go back to his carefree relaxing days. If his Mabo Curry came soon. He tapped his finger on the table, trying to ignore the growing pain in his stomach.

A slender hand placed his curry on the table, "Will that be all for you, sir?"

He looked up immediately after hearing the familiar voice.

The sight of Judith's smiling face in her Glamorous Maid outfit caused Raven's face to burn red, "Ah- Judy?!"

"Hmm? Is there a problem, sir?" Judith held a poker face, but Raven knew there was more to it, "I get off at 5, if you wanted to talk then."

Raven hurried and wolfed down his curry, eager to see what Judith wanted with him. He waited for her outside, pacing for a while, then eventually sitting down and dozing off.

A kick to his knee woke him up. He opened his eyes and saw Judith standing over him, back to her normal attire, which was even more appealing than the maid outfit. Raven jumped up and tried to act suave, running his hand through his hair, "So how can old Raven help a pretty lady like yourself, darlin'?"

Judith just smiled slyly, "I needed a favor. A... physical favor."

Raven hoped she didn't catch his quick shocked expression before acting suave again, "A... physical favor, you say?"

Judith pulled out her spear, "I need you to help me train again. It's been too long and I feel a bit rusty."

"Oh," Raven was a bit disappointed.

"However," Judith raised a finger to her lips, "I'll give you a kiss if you come with me."

Raven grabbed her arm and hurried to the town exit, "Let's go!"

She had failed to tell him how much they would be training for, and she kept him on his feet for a few hours. As the sun started to set, Raven felt fatigued.

Judith picked up on it and set her spear down, "I guess we can take a break."

"N-no. It's fine, I'm... all good..." Raven panted, dropping to his hands and knees.

Judith sat next to him, "I think you're all out of energy, old man."

"Eheheh," Raven sat up, moving closer to her, "You know, it kind of hurts to hear you call me that."

"Hmm? How come? Everyone called you that, you even called yourself that," Judith looked into his eyes.

Raven felt nervous, "I... don't want you to see me that way. As an old man..." he trailed off, looking away.

Judith rustled through the bag she had brough with her, "I have something that might make you feel better. Close your eyes."

He complied and closed them, wondering what she was going to pull out. Without any warning, he felt her warm soft lips on his mouth. He felt a chill go down his spine as she leaned closer, pushing her mouth harder into his, putting her hand on his cheek. She pulled away slowly, before coming back and kissing him again. It seemed like an eternity that they were together, and nothing went through Raven's head, except for the beautiful woman that was kissing him and how soft she felt. He slowly put his arms around her waist and hugged her close.

Just as he started to get worked up, Judith pulled away and stood up, "Well. I need to go now. I'll see you again, Raven." She walked away without looking back.

It took Raven a few minutes to process what had just happened. He headed back to Dahngrest to get an inn, but didn't get much sleep. All he could think about was that passionate kiss and her face.
