[She closes her eyes, and she can feel the strange warmth of his power flowing into her, healing her. It was the strangest sensation. But, one that she's grateful for.

After a few moments, she opens her eyes and nods.]

It was Tim Stoker. He claims he didn't, but... I was there and it was him.

{Resting his palms on her cheeks, letting his power radiate out, calling for the herbs to do their duty and do it well, Thranduil takes heed of the name. Calmly. Tim Stoker.}

Could the city have been playing a trick?

[She looks up at him and her eyebrows furrow a bit. Not because of the way the healing feels, it actually feels good, but rather his question.]

It's... possible. [She frowns slightly.] Anything seems to be possible in this city. But, he knew things... He was mad at me for something I did, said. How would the city know that?

[She doesn't know it, but it was really a clone of Tim Stoker. She truly thinks it was Tim though.]

I cannot say. {He sighs and brushes a gentle hand over her hair. It hurts to see someone who is vulnerable suffering. If this were his kingdom...

If. Tim Stoker would be put to death.}

Can you stay far from him? He does not deserve a second chance.

[It's not often Inara allows someone to comfort her in any way, but she doesn't seem to mind it coming from Thranduil.]

Yes, thankfully I can. We do not seem to have any business to be near one another. [She lifts her chin a little.] And I've told him that I will kill him if he comes near me again.

{Action}

[tauraran]

Ah, tell him that I will kill him if he comes near you again.

{His voice drops, deep as thunder, and there is a sense of power about him. Power that can soothe - as he is doing for her now - as well as strike down.}

[She looks up at him and her eyes widen a little. He's been so gentle with her, but she knows there is a ferocious side of him that she certainly never truly wishes to see.

She nods though.]

I shall. If I ever speak to him again.

{He reins in his temper - for her sake. She doesn't deserve it. But very little angers him more than a woman being abused.}

You are safe; you are not alone.
