SIR BLANDAMOUR (He smiles at Eliza and scoots over to make room for her.)"Good morning, Eliza. Have some of this bacon, it's pretty good. Galadria, I believe that this gentleman wishes to speak to you." (Bags her donut when she gets up.)

Galadria · 06-07-2002, 03:51 PM

LADY GALADRIA {She gets up and joins the constable, smacking Blandamour on the back of his head, making him choke on his donut.)

Sanael Ganahr

Looks up at Galadria as she passes

"Don't tell me that we have gotten into in trouble already - or is this something that you've managed to accomplish all by yourself?"

Legolas and Sorsha - nothing dramatic for the moment just some interested scrutiny

The Steeplewood Forest

“Yes, Aesop, there are many travelers moving about these days,” Ligeia says to the large wolf that sits at her feet. “These two at least look to be reasonably at home within the forest. Perhaps we should have the pack keep a watchful eye upon them, hmmm?” The wolf’s eyes flash and it bounds away to seek its fellows. As he runs, Aesop's whitish gray fur blends with the pre-dawn mist that has settled over the forest.

ooc: Will be away from the computer for a while and probably won't post again until this evening.

Legolas · 06-07-2002, 04:25 PM

Legolas

Even though he had seen the trees from quite teh distance away, he finds himself awad by their size. Even at the outer edge there stand trees with bases so thick twenty men could not have joined arms around them. Other, smaller trees looking skeletal in comparison stand amongst them, sunlight glinting pleasantly off their silvery white barks. It's truely a place of great beauty, and if not for the squirrel scolding them for standing near her nest, and birdcalls both familliar and unknown, one would think that it was strictly forbidden to make a sound. As it was, he could only manage a whisper.

"I think it's time to rest. It'll be dark soon, and I doubt we'll find any more people today."

When he gets no response, his gaze slides from the squirrel high up to the shape of Sorsha, his Sorsha, standing beside him. She seems caught up in the spell of the place, so he puts his hand on her shoulder and whispers her name to get her attention.

"Sorsha... Don't you think it's about time we made camp?

Raymond

The sun was already bright and the forest was warm when Raymond finally decided to quit being lazy and wake up. He stood up and stretched his arms into the aor, only then to rmember that he was again his human-self. Runnig his fingers through his hair to clear out some small twigs and fern, Raymond began to ponder his dream that he had the night before. He had an image of an angel in his thoughts. One that understood him and made him feel wanted. It was such a sweet dream, but alas! Just a dream.

Raymond gathered himself up and left the safety of the forest, coming out to meet his friends that were journeying with him. He didn't really find many people out and about like he expected. He say Galadria rushing off somewhere, He heard a male voice nearby, but could not remember the name of him, and besides that, it appeared that nobody was doing anything of importance. Raymond decided to just walk around and say hi to everyone. It was a wonderful day!

Constable Isaaks

It seems she is as prompt and determined as I had thought ~ Puzzled by the vaguely frustrated expression on her face he is nonetheless pleased by how quickly she has come. He glances quickly around the room to make sure that while the usual parties will see this conversation take place none will overhear what is being said. He has had enough of ceremonial officiousness these last weeks and trusts that she will not object should he proceed directly to the issue at hand. “Your time is undoubtedly valuable,” he says as she seats herself at the table, “and so I will be as brief and direct as possible. You slew three murderous thugs recently after they had beaten a woman, young or old the reports disagree, to death. I assume your return here has something to do with that matter.” He pauses a moment, choosing his words carefully. “I must warn you against any vigilantism – your order has no authority within this region and more lawlessness will not bring peace to so troubled a city as this.” The weight of his office sits uncomfortably upon him at times like these, but he is now free to speak of his more important concerns. “Do not worry about the previous incident. I have seen to it that there will be no juridical difficulties for you. I have sought you out primarily, in fact, because you are the only one I know of who might be able to tell me what it was that transpired that day.” His voice drops into a lower key as he continues, “The murderers – within a day their bodies had crumbled to nothing more than dust and a few scraps of bone and hair.”

Sorsha

All around, emeralds glitter on the branches of the tall, majestic trees ahead of them. Alas, the canopy above has a few tears in it, that the jealous sun might intrude upon the magical brilliance of this wonderland. Her keen ears pick up the sound of scurrying feet and she whips around just to see a palm-sized squirrel scampering about a branch.

In rapture does she stare at this adorable creature of innocence and frailty, clenching her fists to keep from reaching out (and probably startling) the rodent ~ This place is so beautiful, I... ~ Finding her eyes smarting and her tongue tied ~ .. I want to cry... ~ She strives to curb her heart from bursting with a million thrills assaulting her senses ~ This is our paradise... Legolas and I... we ought to stay here forever...

As if on cue, she feels his burning touch and jolts slightly. Turning around, she faces him guiltily and hears his patient question.

"I... " ~ Caught by the spell woven so cunningly around them, she extends her hands to hold his shakily ~ "Yes... let's camp here for now."

Moments later, they have set up a cosy place for themselves and sit down to enjoy the fruits of their labour.

Raymond

Raymond walked about, greeting those of the party, and trying to assertain their feelings for him. They all seemed to be very adaptable and non-moved by his curse. Some had inquired as to whether or not he had chosen the pathway of a druid, as that would be a more suitable home for him now. Up until that point, Raymond had never given thought to such a thing, but he could easily see how that could come to pass. He woud have to think on it more. For at that moment, he spied out Isaura, and made for her direction. He had an idea and wanted to try and persuade her feelings for him to reoccur. What he would say when he reached her, he knew not...but was intent on doing something, or else die from a broken heart that instant.

mistral4543 · 06-07-2002, 10:25 PM

Isaura

She watches with some concern as Galadria leaves her spot and examines her own occupied hands sadly ~ Now how do I eat my breakfast without torching everyone to death?! ~ Yet her churning stomach protests against her will. Catching several of the others' grins of amusement, she smiles sheepishly and glares at the fiery globes ~ I never asked you to appear, did I? ~ Inwardly thankful that she has somehow managed to retain some parts - no matter how insignificant - of her memory.

Alright, now... no funny business... or else... ~ Drawing a deep breath, she gingerly places the weapons on the table, her hair rising and heart pounding.

Nothing.

With a sigh of relief, she now grabs the fork and begins munching on the food ravenously.
