The Wanderers - Chapter 1 - "Initiation"

[Killing Spree]

Mistral
(ooc: Hey, I'm the gal who ran from Athkatla to Ravenwood then back to Athkatla then back to Ravenwood in two posts.)

~Brier swallowed hard, her eyes could not tear from the dead body of her father. She wetted her lips and tried to speak though a lump was forming in her throat. Her normally medolic and persuasive voice was somewhat croaky.~ "I grew up listening to tales about you..." ~She tried to laugh, but it was a stifled gasp.~ "I was sort of in awe of you. You seemed like one of the brave heroines in bard tales."

Murdock
(ooc: All I can say is ROFLMAO!)

~She did not answer you. You could see her moonlit shillouette against the wall. She had a troubled expression. Her eyes were closed and she was rubbing her sinusus. She looked at you from the corner of her eye, sighed and shook her head. Her tone was very different from before, somehow more sincere.~ "I... I'm sorry for bringing this on you so fast... But it has been a very long day for me." ~She smiled weakly at you. She no longer seemed to be the immortal ball of charisma. No... She seemed weary, distressed, and somehow quietly candid.~ "One of those days where I wish I could just pummel a dagger through my gut." ~A smile quickly spread across her face. It was a pretty smile, not the sly smirk of before.~ "You know it's a bad day when you fall on your bum getting out of bed."

Glorfindel
(ooc: Actually that time I didn't leave a hint... Question 2: Do you like cinnamon pop-tarts? )

~The gensai looked at you. Her eyes were a very... Interesting shade of icy blue. She picked up her pack and slung it over her shoulder. Her voice was only a whisper on the breeze.~ "I am called Kalila... It means beloved..." ~She paused, closing her eyes. A stronger wind blew past carrying leaves. She looked at you again.~ "What is it you wish of me... Glorfindel of Mosreed..."

Crystal

~Nero had been walking along for about a day and half when he reached the ferry. He smiled to himself.~ "At this rate I'll be in Serinaquei in time for dinner." ~His stomach growled at the thought and he involuntarily winced.~ "Maybe I'll stop on the way."

~Nero did stop to rest for the night in Karamikay. He found himself a bit anxious as he looked up at the ceiling.~ "I can't believe I'm already here!" ~He looked to the full moon outside the window.~ "Tommorow maybe I can walk to Serinaquei and find Crystal... That'll be a surprise!" ~He bit his lip.~ "Oh damn... Willow was right, wasn't she?" ~He chuckled and blew out the candle on his bedside table.~ "Nah, I was just angry. Say crazy things when you're angry you do."

Aoisan

~You found Lowell at the gates at the crack of dawn. He yawned.~ "Didn't want to risk my harem following me all the way to the Wood Of Eerie Howls." ~He forced a weary smile.~ "I figure we'll charge on to Retaw today and then if we're still feeling adventurous treack the Shield Pass to Shadowrun." ~He nodded toward the trail to Llitrium.~ "Shall we?"

Arleth

"You're insane Arleth!" ~She said as she surveyed the raft you'd prepared.~ "We're both going to drown!"
~She realized once again that she had little or no choice. She then grudgingly accepted the idea.~ "If that thing capsizes I'm using your head as a stepping stone!"

Daelinda

~Cadell shrugged.~ "Well all right, if you feel like being nice to the little bugger." ~She smiled, then looked up.~ "There's the office right there!" ~She turned the barrel upward and a dizzy kobold popped its head out. She smirked.~ "You carry the little runt, I'll get the door." ~Her smile widened.~

Murdock

Watching this change come over his captor eased his own worries. She was mortal, after all! He could see that she was stressed about something, and tired. He sat in a chair and smiled at her, waiting for her to finally bring the business to the table. He wondered why she had chosen him to become a partner in this burdon that she was carrying. Yet, he decided not to rush her nor even say a word until she was ready. She had already made him incredibly famous downstairs, and he was going to love bragging later on to some of them. There was no need to rush this meeting. The longer they stayed up there, the more stamina it appeared that he had. That rumor would do him good with future dates...

(ooc: Thalali, give your damned rodent a name.)

Murdock
(ooc: That last sentence was... Disturbing? Nah, it brings me back to Maverick's days as a smirking teenager! Bad night that was, lost his boot and his date stabbed him in the shin.)

~She stood in quiet contemplation for a moment. Her brow creased as she looked over at you. She bit her lower lip. She could tell you were more relaxed.~ "It wouldn't take many words to explain everything... But I... I don't feel very secure..." ~Her eyes averted to the door. Her jaw was in a grim clamp. It looked like she was going to be sick or cry or something of the like. You couldn't help it, you kind of felt sorry for her.~

Thalali's room
Khalidin

Thalali stared at the ferret for some time. He decided he would keep the unique creature. He was going to train it to pick pocket an how to identify the richer from he poorer. He needed a name though hmmm Felix. Yes that was the perfect name for it.

OOC>>> Alrighty, Spree... first things, first...(since you've been warned)... **HUGS, HUGS, HUGS**!!!!

IC>>>
"Brave heroine?" ~ She stares disbelievingly at Brier, her chestnut brown eyes registering confusion ~ That hardly describes my life so far... ~ Strangely, her throat feels dry and she swallows an imaginary gulp of water ~ "What makes you say that?"

As she waits for an answer from her sister... no, half-sister ~ she corrects mentally ~ her slender fingers stray downwards to play with the folds of her smoky grey robe.

"Listen doll, you picked this joint, now you feel too scared to talk in it? What are you running from? Is there is anything I can do, you know...to help you...relax?"

She shoots him an icy glare at that remark...

"Oh, I mean...do you want my weapons on the table or shall I barricade the door, or what? I cannot help you unless you loosen up some and chat. Tell me then...what will it take to relax you from feeling the way you do?"

Aoisan - Village Gates, Todmey

"Allright, let's go."
The two travelers started on their journey. It proved to be a nice day, with good weather for travelling, and the blood was singing in Aoisan's veins, happy to fulfill his wanderlust at last. Both of them having an affinity for the great outdoors, they were making good headway, and it wouldn't take a long time for them to reach their destination.

(o.o.c.) Have I been Killed off already?

[Talthyr Malkaviel]

As the next day dawned and sunlight hit his face, a wave of anticipation washed over Garaeth.
He got up, prepared himself, and set off nice and early to the judging destination.
Just as he was arriving, he noticed some other soon-to-be-paladins and couldn't help smiling at everyones clear suspense and punctuality.
He was to be judged quite early, but he wasn't first, he knew that.
All he could do was wait until it was his turn, and maybe try to spot Eben if he could.

Daelinda

She smirked.~ "You carry the little runt, I'll get the door." ~Her smile widened

"Whoa" Daelinda yelped as the kobold lost the remain's of it's breakfest almost on her. "Yer lucky little rat that it only got me boot's" Daelinda grabbed him rather harshly by the scruff of his neck and cordilly hefted him through the open door, just a little off center.with a `Thump,and a thud`, the kobold crashed into the side of the door jam and fell to the floor. Cadell burst into laughter and the interior of the building grew quiet at the intterruption. Slowly the room began laugh with her. Dalinda entered the room and said "We have returned with new's and a little something fer yer amusement" She picked up the kobold who squeaked and started to squirm, and placed him rather ungently into a chair. "I give you, uhm..well I give you this" she pointed at the kobold. "One of four and a half orc who thought they were going to have some fun with the farmer's, the thought wrong. Cadell and I thought it would be wise to bring this one back for some questioning and some fun."
