At the Edge of Humanity {IC}

[whoiam]

As the guards stopped the group to examine them, Alala simply stood near the back of the group, face eyes averted, staring quietly at the floor. There were more interesting parts she could have played than just acting like she was still a slave... but they probably wouldn't have been very convincing. After all, she'd been a slave most of her life. Impersonating, say, a travelling minstrel would have been far less convincing...

As soon as the party had started seeing other traffic on the road (and didn't decide to kill them to maintain secrecy), Alala had gotten into the part. Mostly this just involved returning her weapons to her bag of holding, and doing the same for her armor, so she looked like a saddled centaur dressed in rags that had once been furs. Couldn't risk one of the carts reporting an armed Centaur, after all. Not if she was going to pretend to be a slave when she got to town...
