ATTENTION MADMAN

ROFL!! Unintentionally, you caused this thread on page five to crash, so that nobody could access the page.

This is what you did, so that everyone can remember to be careful from now on. After the word aqqaintences, you typed this : (??!?!), but you also put the little less than sign in that is used when making a font color. This, in league with the ( ) signs caused the HTML code to scream bloody murder.

I will think of a suitable punishment for for you later.

Sanael Ganahr

walks up to Sir Bors and Sir Blandamour

"I have taken the opportunity to send for some reinforcements. I don't how long it will take then to arrive, but when they do the will bring weapons that can hurt ANY demon"

Legolas

A cloud moves in front of the sun to take the glitter from the lake, and the moment passes. The elf follows his arm downward with his eyes, and when he realises where it is going he quickly lets go of Sorsha's waist. Part of a blush finds its way to his elven face and he looks away from the young woman, hoping she will not see it.
Taking a moment longer to recover, he finally starts down the hill to view the water from up close. The doe bolts and dissapears into the woods.

After only a cursory glance at the water, though, the ranger turns to a tree and breaks off a long, flexible twig. Using his long knife he cuts away the smaller twigs sprouting from the sides, and carves a point on one end.
"It's nearly lunchtime," he explains. "Want to.. ehr.. would you like to try and catch some fish here?"

Attalus · 05-18-2002, 02:23 PM

SIR BLANDAMOUR (to Sanael Ganahr) "Aye, well and good, we may need them all. Who knows what he is plotting, the hellspawn."
(As Sir Bors gives the signal, the catapaults and ballistae begin to pour huge stones and missles into the town, concentrating on the main gate. The sappers have constructed their trench, and begin a diagonal one toward the left gate tower. There is also a commotion at a spot in the rear where an enormous excavation is taking place.)

Galadria · 05-18-2002, 03:28 PM

ELIZA(She is a bit appalled at all of the noise and the sight of the town guards being crushed to death, so she stands a little bit closer to Blandamour. He glances at her and winks, so she is comforted. She wishes he would put his arm around her, but knows that he is not going to do that, like an adolescent at a play with his best girl. Still, she does wish it.)

OOC- for those who dont know what Keshin's outfit looks like, it's like this (or along those lines)

or look here- http://www.vtas.org/Images/Kenshin/kenshin.gif
(to Elif: Hm, battousai, eh?

)
IC- Skye's eyebrows raised slightly at Keshin's outfit, but she didn't say anything. "Well, I need to quickly sneak back and grab my pack, and then I'll be ready to go." Slipping in through one of the kitchen windows, the staff used to the strange comings and goings, Skye snuck up to her room, and after grabbing her things leapt out her window, landing lightly. Sauntering back over, she flung her cloak carelessly over her shoulders. "Alright, I'm ready. Where exactly did you say we were headed? Anything we should plan for in advance?"

Sorsha

Signs of a burden seemed to be forming within her as he spoke the words ~ He wants me to catch my own fish... does he want to continue pushing me thus? ~ She darted a glance at his slightly flushed face, then looked at her own feet ~ Can he accept a weaker person? ~ Yet it was crazy, thinking of these thoughts. He had not once spoken of his attachment, since his return. Here he was, determined to carve a useful being out of herself. She should be glad. She should be grateful.

But was she?

There was no denying the growing resentment she felt, to have all the cares of the world thrust upon her yet-unaccustomed shoulders. What had started off innocuously as an adventure had returned to the same old topic she hated. Independence. Almost every moment she was reminded of how much he wanted her to be a better person, a stronger one. She would no longer be comforted in the knowledge that he would willingly take care of her, while she focused on serving a greater world.

Gripped by an unreasonable torrent of frustration, she moved towards the lake, brushing against him without bothering to apologise.

May I find the courage and perseverence to carry on...

Legolas

His brow wrinkles in confusion for a moment. Did she not like fish? Thinking back, he cannot recall seeing her eat fish on any ocasion. That must be it then.

"I'm sorry. If you don't like fish we'll just go and see what else we can find, okay?"

He tosses the twig into the reeds as he moves to catch up with her.

Sorsha

Hearing his footsteps behind her, she struggled to get a grip of the emotions that threatened to overwhelm her ~ It's just fish, Sorsha! ~ It sounded so silly that her lips twitched involuntarily. She blinked and inhaled deeply, before turning to him. Her azure blue eyes glittered in the morning sun ~ "I'm fine with anything, Legolas." ~ Her wistful tone lingered for many moments ~ "I... I'm not very hungry."

Walking towards a nearby tree, she leaned against it and closed her eyes, seeking solace in her private thoughts.

Legolas · 05-18-2002, 10:46 PM

Legolas

He cocks his head to a side as he looks at her in concern. Was he missing something? Not likely. Probably her past acting up.
He realised she had not really spoken of her past.
She was daughter to a king, who was murdered, she was raised in Ankhmoor, a simple village, did some small-scale adventuring with a bard, and that was it.
Then again, he had not told her much about himself either.

She'd grown up in Ankhmor. She was probably familiar with parts of the forest. Why did she choose to go to the hills? Did it have something to do with Jason, or was it soemthing else entirely?
The elf realised he, too, was sitting on the forest floor now. Sorsha's eyes remained close, so he decided to go back to this little puzzle. He'd probably need more pieces.
