Xerese waited in the brush impatiently. Looking down at her clothing, she knew that she would be ashamed walking into the middle of a town looking like this. Toman had said little after he realized that the lady was willing to make the best of a bad situation without complaint; but Xerese looked at the tears caused by branches and thorns and realized that the tunic was becoming more like rags clinging to her body. Nothing that was supposed to be concealed was in danger of being revealed yet; but lying with the guardsman each night, the girl wondered if she wasn't being scandalous enough already.
The thought of Toman holding her made the girl blush. It wasn't that she had feelings for him exactly, but they had been alone and he her protector. They were together always and closer at night. He held her because she made him, but Toman had never protested either.
When she saw the big guard walking back past the closest house with a smaller, older man; Xerese shook her head and laughed. For all his talk, he couldn't do it. He couldn't just steal from people, but the man carried a bundle of light blue cloth over his left arm as he spoke with his new companion.
They didn't stop until nearly to the brush and Xerese wondered if Toman no longer worried if she was seen in her current state. She used a bush to conceal her tunic and much of her bare legs, but called out as they closed, "Did you find some help in town?"
The old man looked back and laughed, "I think your female friend is being generous calling this a town, my friend."
Uncertain why the old man was amused, her eyes went to her guardsman. Toman shrugged at her and said, "Edric found someone with a daughter about your size. I hope this fits. I can't say that I am a perfect judge of women's clothing."
That made the old man laugh again. He didn't bother to explain his humor as Toman handed the bundle over to her however.
"Turn around," she ordered the two with a wave of her hand. The idea of stripping behind a bush would have been insane to her, but after surviving the shipwreck, just being alive meant little else really fazed her.
The tunic was tugged over her head. A breeze coming through the trees made her skin prickle and she shivered. Even her panties seemed worn after so many days and the ordeals they had suffered through, she thought before shaking out the bundle.
A simple dress, sometimes called a peasant's dress in her circle, colored light blue had buttons on the top letting Xerese step into it from above. Pulling it up and slipping her arms into the sleeves, Xerese quickly buttoned it before one of the men decided to sneak a peek at her dressing.
She was surprised at the fit. Though not perfect, the hips and waist felt comfortable. Her bust was apparently larger than the previous owner making her leave some of the buttons open so she could breath.
