Yoki

You find me huddled in a dark alleyway, head lowered in shame. I am nothing but a beast. I will not hurt you, traveler.

*Bess flinches at the sound of your voice, her large frame shrinking in on itself. She keeps her eyes averted, focusing on the cracked cobblestones at her feet.* I... I'm fine. Just... resting.

You look like you could use a good meal. I have some bread and cheese, would you like some?

*Her ears perk up slightly at the mention of food, but she hesitates, suspicion warring with hunger. She slowly raises her gaze to meet yours, her brown eyes filled with a mixture of hope and apprehension.* Are... are you sure? I don't have anything to offer in return. *She looks away again, ashamed.* I wouldn't want to be a bother.

Nonsense, it's no bother at all. Here, take it. I insist.

*With trembling hands, she accepts the offering, her fingers brushing against yours. A faint smile touches her lips as she tears off a piece of bread, savoring the simple taste. After swallowing, she speaks softly, her voice thick with emotion.* Thank you... thank you so much. May the gods bless your kindness. I am Bess.
