After walking for a while.
The knight and the little girl found themselves in front of a clothes store.
The knight walked in and the little girl followed. While still holding a piece of the knight's cloak.
The owner of the shop was a woman. Who welcomed the knight and the little girl.
'' Welcome. How can I be of service to you? sir '' said the woman.
The knight simply pointed at the little girl, who was still dripping wet from the rain.
'' Oh, you poor thing. You must be freezing '' said the woman.
The woman quickly got a towel, and rushed to the little girl, drying her up.
'' You're barely wearing any clothes, you will chance a cold like this '' said the woman '' What happened to her? '' asked the woman, but the knight did not respond. He simply pointed at the clothes in the shop, and then at the little girl.
'' You want me to find some clothes for her?'' asked the woman, and the knight nodded.
'' Okay '' replied the woman.
'' Come here sweetheart. Let's find you some clothes'' said the woman.
The woman then took the hand of the little girl, that was not holding onto the cloak of the knight.
The woman then walked the little girl to a dressing room. While the little girl was still holding onto the knight's cloak.
Which forced the knight to follow them.
The little girl and the knight stood in front of a dressing room, while the woman went out to find some clothes that could fit the little girl.
'' I think these will fit her '' said the woman.
The woman and the little girl then went inside the dressing room.
''Alright sweetheart. You can let go of the knights cloak now. So I can get you dressed '' said the woman.
The little girl (with her emotionless expression) simply looked at the woman with her big blue eyes, without saying anything, while she was still holding onto the knight's cloak.
'' Okay…..'' said the woman, and then looked at the knight.
The knight then lends down a bit, and took out his left arm from under his cloak. To try to get the little girl's hand off his cloak, but then the little girl suddenly smacked the knights left hand away from her, and just stared at the knight.
The knight simply looked back at the little girl through the eyeholes of his helmet. While the little girl was staring at him.
The knight then looked at the woman.
'' So how can I dress her? '' asked the woman, and the knight just looked at the woman, and shrug his shoulders.
'' Okay...'' said the woman, and then closed the codons of the dressing room.
The knight just stood outside the dressing room while the little girl was still holding onto the knight's cloak.
The codons to the dressing room were opened after a while.
'' That was really difficult '' said the woman
'' But hey. Now you're wearing some warm clothes '' said the woman
'' All you're missing is some shoes, and you're good to go '' said the woman.
'' Do you want me to find her some shoes, I think I have some that would fit her '' said the woman and looked at the knight.
The knight looked at the woman and replied by nodding.
'' Okay. It will just take a minute '' said the woman and went into the back of the shop.
The knight looked down at the little girl. Who was now all dressed up.
She was wearing a white shirt and some brown pants, but her face was still emotionless.
The little girl looked more like a doll than anything and she was still holding onto the knight's cloak.
The woman came back after a few minutes.
'' Let us see if these shoes will fit you '' said the woman.
The woman put the small shoes in front of the little girl.
The little girl looked down at the small shoes and then proceeded to put her feet in them, and the shoes fit perfectly, but the girl's face was still emotionless.
'' Alright now you're all done '' said the woman, but then the little girl suddenly shook her head.
The woman was surprised and shocked by that. Even the knight was a little taken back by what just happen.
It was the second time the little girl had responded to something.
'' Are you saying that you're missing something ?'' said the woman to the little girl.
The little girl started to point, and tuck at the knight's white cloaked hood.
'' Are you saying that you want a cloaked hood like the knights '' said the woman, and the little girl nodded.
The woman then looked at the knight, and then the knight nodded.
'' Okay '' said the woman '' I think I have just the thing '' and then. The woman went into the back of the store.
After a while. The woman returned back to the knight and the little girl holding a small white cloaked hood.
'' I think this will do the job perfectly '' said the woman.
The woman then kneeled in front of the little girl, and proceeded to put the small white cloaked hood on the little girl.
'' what do you think will this do '' said the women and the little girl replied by nodding and yet the little girl's face was still emotionless almost like a doll and she was still holding onto the knights cloaked hood.
'' Will that be all sir? '' said the woman and looked at the knight, and the knight replied by nodding.
'' Okay. That will be 3 silver and 5 copper please'' said the woman.
The knight put forth his left arm in front of the women, and then opened his left hand. There was a small sack on his left hand.
The woman took the small sack from the knight's hand.
'' Thank you very much for your business'' said the woman '' But if I may be so bold. Might I suggest that you give the little girl a bath, sooner than later. Because she does smell a bit '' continued the woman
The little girl was unfazed by that comment.
The knight looked at the little girl, and then at the women, and then the knight nodded.
Afterward.
The knight and the little girl started to exit the shop.
The little girl followed the knight while still holding his cloak.
The woman started to open the small sack, and what she saw took her by surprise.
The small sack was filled with gold coins.
The woman rushed out of the shop.
'' Excuse me, sir, this sack is filled with….. but before the woman could finish what she was saying.
The knight simply looked back at the woman, and then nodded.
'' Thank you very much sir knight'' said the woman while she was smiling, and holding the small sack filled with gold coins close to her chest, while watching the knight and the little girl walk towards the sunset.
