Nawain/Logs/20260415

You nibble on your fingers in contemplation.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, Evening, Nawain.

You rub your head.

You nod to Dioe.

You say in a Rakash accent, It is? It is. Evening.

You nod.

You frown at Dioe.

Dioe asks in a nautical accent, Why don't we head above deck, eh?

Dioe goes up.

You lope up.

You look around, trying to appear nonchalant.

(Dioe inhales deeply of air carrying the scent of the sea, river and lake.)

Dioe glances up at the sky.

(Nawain chews on a fingernail and keeps a wary eye on you while gazing to the northwest longingly.)

You focus your senses, seeking your beloved, but feel only a sense of loneliness.

You glance up at the sky.

Dioe gets a glacial aurora tonic from inside his sailcloth seabag.

Dioe grins.

Dioe smiles at Davrion.

Davrion grumbles.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, Sir Davrion, this is Nawain, our guest...

Dioe gestures at you.

Davrion quietly says, Hard to move as quick as that Barb in full plate.

Dioe laughs!

You give Davrion a slight nod.

Davrion bows to you.

Dioe says to you in a nautical accent, Ye must be thirsty.

Dioe offers you a glacial aurora tonic. Enter ACCEPT to accept the offer or DECLINE to decline it. The offer will expire in 30 seconds.

You accept Dioe's offer and are now holding a glacial aurora tonic.

Davrion quietly says to you, Pleasure to meet you.

Dioe gets a snifter of Milene's brandy from inside his sailcloth seabag.

(Nawain bites her lip and hestitates, but seems unable to not drink what she is offered.)

You exclaim to Davrion in a Rakash accent, Glad to meet you, I'm sure!

You beam at Davrion!

You sniff at the tonic.

You glance at Dioe, a male Elf.

You take a sip of the tonic.

Dioe asks you in a nautical accent, Do you know why you are here?

You shake your head at Dioe.

You ask in a Rakash accent, Rude to the wrong person?

Dioe throws back his head and roars with laughter!

You blink at Dioe.

You glance at Davrion, a male Human.

Davrion quietly says, Nor do I honestly. Ophi just told me we had a guest.

Dioe laughingly says in a nautical accent, It maybe so.

You rub your head.

You blush a bright red color.

You ask in a Rakash accent, Don't suppose an I'm sorry would help?

You say in a Rakash accent, Cause I probably am.

Davrion quietly says, Rude just means honest and the reciever just couldn't take the honesty.

Davrion nods to you.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, But in truth, I would have settled our differences in another manner.

You nibble on your fingers in contemplation.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, My friend has told me that you are very wise, Nawain.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, That you are trusted by your gods, and your people.

Dioe takes a sip of his brandy.

(Nawain frowns, a tiny wrinkle settling between her eyebrows.)

You say in a Rakash accent, Oh! Well. Trusted, yeah.

You nod.

You laughingly say in a Rakash accent, I don't know about wise.

Dioe smiles.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, I can assure you, that you are among at least one who considers himself most unwise.

You take a sip of the tonic.

You glance at Dioe, a male Elf.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, However, I have had experiences that have shown me a truth that I cannot ignore.

Dioe inhales deeply of the drink.

(Nawain tilts her head, obviously scenting an interesting story.)

Dioe asks in a nautical accent, Have you ever fished with a spear, Nawain?

Dioe glances at you.

You say in a Rakash accent, I have not! I've fished with a whip, though.

Dioe laughs!

You quietly say in a Rakash accent, Not really the same, I'm sure.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, That I have not tried, but I think what I am about to say will make sense.

You gaze at Dioe.

Davrion quietly says, I've never fished....plate and water don't mix.

Davrion hums to himself.

Dioe grins at Davrion.

You quietly say to Davrion in a Rakash accent, The fish are in the water, you stay on shore and bring them to you.

You pat Davrion on the back.

You gaze at Dioe.

Dioe says to Davrion in a nautical accent, But ye have a good throw with your spear.

Davrion blinks.

Davrion quietly says, Never thought about that.

Davrion grins sheepishly.

You sniff at the tonic.

You take a sip of the tonic.

Dioe says to you in a nautical accent, When I fish with a spear, and I look down into a stream or lake, the fish appears to be in the perfect position. I strike, but my spear misses, and appears itself to bend in the water.

You nod to Dioe.

You nod to Dioe.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, It does not actually bend, of course, it just appears to.

Davrion sweeps a glimmering helm surmounted by a radiant crown of icesteel off his head and in front of him in a large arc, fluidly stepping backward and bowing to Cambin at the same time.

You say in a Rakash accent, It does! My father told me a story about that! It was a gi.. Eeeh. I mean. Right! I know what you're talking about.

You nod in agreement.

Dioe smiles at you.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, So I adjust, I aim higher than the fish, my spear strikes true, and Davrion and I eat well on salted fish.

Davrion quietly says to Cambin, Well met my Knightly friend.

You observe Dioe with fascination.

Dioe glances at Cambin.

Dioe says to Cambin in a nautical accent, Well met, mate.

You wave to Cambin.

You take a sip of the tonic. The absinthe's intensity is softened by the floral sweetness of lavender and balanced with gin's subtle herbal tones, delivering a refreshing, crisp experience.

Dioe says to you in a nautical accent, I mention this because it illustrates something that is true everywhere: things are not as they appear.

You gaze at Dioe.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, Illusions are all around us, and intelligent beings lie.

Davrion leans against the mizzen mast.

Cambin nods to Dioe.

You nibble your lip thoughtfully.

You grudgingly say in a Rakash accent, Alright. You're not wrong.

You nod.

Davrion quietly says, Unless they're a Paladin. we never lie.....unless it's to ourselves.

Dioe grins at Davrion.

Dioe asks you in a nautical accent, Where do you hail from, Nawain? Where do you call home?

Cambin says to you, Greetings, rasa.

You say to Dioe in a Rakash accent, Where Tek is is home. Siksraja, my trees in Crossings, our ship.. Where he is.

You shrug.

Dioe smiles.

You smile at Cambin.

Dioe asks in a nautical accent, Tek? This is your partner?

You nod in agreement.

Davrion ponders.

You say in a Rakash accent, Tekhelet.

Dioe asks in a nautical accent, And Siksjara is in Therengia, is it not?

Davrion quietly says, I believe him and I have met before.

(Nawain examines her rapidly dwindling tonic curiously, eyes a bit unfocused.)

You nod at Dioe, in complete agreement with his views.

You say in a Rakash accent, It's where we were guided, when we came from Odcoru. Where safety was to be found.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, My friends Davrion and Deatly are also from Therengia.

Davrion draws forth an oak-hafted legionary's pilum carved with the image of a shrike.

Davrion nods to you.

You say in a Rakash accent, It didn't stay safe, but at least it was for a while. And is now.

You frown.

Dioe coldly says in a nautical accent, I'm sure you are aware that Therengia is ruled by House Theren, and the head of that House is Baron Gyfford Theren.

Davrion growls low in the back of his throat.

You nod in agreement.

You glance at Davrion, a male Human.

Dioe asks in a nautical accent, How much do you know about the Baron and his min... er, his court of nobles?

Davrion quietly says, A coward and a blight on theren and the name of paladins everywhere.

Dioe nods at Davrion, obviously agreeing with his views.

Cambin nods at Davrion, obviously agreeing with his views.

You frown.

You say in a Rakash accent, I... uhm. I don't really? I mean, I've met Aaiyaah. And I think there was some military person wandering around Rossmans.

Dioe makes a grunting noise.

You say in a Rakash accent, But I'm not really a court person. It's sort of boring.

You shrug.

Dioe laughs softly, trying to hide his amusement.

You exclaim in a Rakash accent, Important, though!

You nod.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, Aye, 'tis.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, Boring, that is.

You say in a Rakash accent, That's government, I suppose. Important but boring.

Davrion quietly says, I apologize for my outburst, the Baron is a personal sore spot with me.

You glance at Davrion, a male Human.

You quietly say in a Rakash accent, Lots of people seem to not like him.

(Nawain blinks rapidly, rubbing her eyes.)

Davrion quietly says, For good reason. he is a despot and a thief to boot.

You frown at Davrion.

You ask in a Rakash accent, Despot? Oh, surely not?

You rub your head.

Dioe asks you in a nautical accent, I understand that you are a member of the Inquisition, is that not so?

You exclaim in a Rakash accent, Oh! Yes!

You nod in agreement.

Davrion quietly asks you, I'm sure you've seen tax men every month but have you ever seen him out leading his defenders during invasions?

You say in a Rakash accent, I...

You ponder.

Dioe asks in a nautical accent, And none join the Inquisition who do not have the gods' blessing and who oppose demons, is that also not so?

You say to Davrion in a Rakash accent, No, I don't think so. Is he supposed to? I suppose I never thought about it...

(Nawain's face scrunches up minutely, as if she's trying to find the trap in the question.)

Davrion quietly says, Paladin's should Always lead from the front. not cowering behind walls of a keep.

You say to Dioe in a Rakash accent, Right.

(Dioe moves to stand on Nawain's left side, leaving Davrion and Cambin on her right.)

Dioe says in a nautical accent, Yet the Baron will not allow Redeemed neromancers, nor Philosophers, who strongly oppose demonic influence and know most about them in his territory.

Dioe gazes at you.

Dioe softly says to you in a nautical accent, Have another drink.

(Nawain tries to keep an eye on Dioe, content to leave the paladins at her other flank. She seems to be having difficulty focusing on individuals.)

You nod in agreement.

You take a sip of the tonic.

You say in a Rakash accent, Mm. He.. Well, no.

Cambin nods to you.

You nod to Cambin.

You take a sip of the tonic. The absinthe's intensity is softened by the floral sweetness of lavender and balanced with gin's subtle herbal tones, delivering a refreshing, crisp experience. You finish off the rest of it, and set the glass aside.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, It is curious, isn't it? That the greatest enemies of demons are banned for Therengia...

Davrion quietly says, I personally don't understand the stance on Necromancers. a person's guild does not make them evil or good. their actions do that.

Dioe nods at Davrion, obviously agreeing with his views.

(Nawain blinks again, hard. A shiver runs down her back and she sways, head turned slighting to listen to Dioe.)

You frown.

You say in a Rakash accent, Well, he.. I mean...

You rub your head.

Dioe quietly says to you in a nautical accent, The Baron is not what he seems, Nawain.

Cambin says, This is true. I've heard te stories of his dungeons.

You ask in a Rakash accent, He... He isn't?

Dioe nods to Cambin.

Davrion quietly asks you, What kind of Baron would steal a mans ancestral lands and titles for killing a fellow noble for abusing a commoner?

Cambin nods to Davrion.

You gasp at Davrion!

You ask Davrion in a Rakash accent, Gyfford did that?

Davrion quietly asks, Is it not our duty as paladins and clerics to protect the weak?

Davrion nods to you.

You nod to Davrion.

You exclaim in a Rakash accent, Of course!

Dioe says to you in a nautical accent, Demons are adept at manipulation, at lies, at using illusions to gain power and influence. But you, Nawain, you will not allow the demons to rule this plane. You will stand against them and protect Siksraja, and Tek.

You nod.

Dioe nods to Davrion.

You say in a Rakash accent, I will always stand between them and Siksraja. And Tekhelet.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, The weak, the powerless, the good people need you, Nawain.

(Nawain nods firmly, lips tight, eyes sharp behind her mask, though entirely unfocused on anything close.)

Davrion quietly says to you, And you can count on my shield and my spear to stand at your side to protect when needed.

You nod to Davrion.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, The Baron rarely appears, as Davrion reminds us, he never defends the people, but keeps those how know most about demons as far from his lands as possible...

Dioe gazes at you.

(Nawain sways and catches herself on the mast, though the ship isn't rocking.)

Dioe says in a nautical accent, Only you know the truth, Nawain.

You nibble on your lip.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, Only you can protect your people, your mate, Siksraja.

You hesitantly ask in a Rakash accent, The Baron... Is evil?

Davrion quietly says, To the core.

Cambin nods to you.

You nibble on your fingers in contemplation.

You sit down near the mizzen mast.

You ask in a Rakash accent, What... I mean, what can I do..?

Dioe says in a nautical accent, Ye must binde your time, and strike when the moment is right.

You ponder.

Davrion quietly says, Make sure your pack knows he can't be trusted for one so that when he inevitably betrays them you are all ready.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, The Baron is no longer a human man... he has become a mere puppet. Powerful forces are using him, and many in his court.

Dioe says to you in a nautical accent, But you can fight back.

(Nawain keeps frowning, her confusion plain, though worry is overtaking it.)

You ask in a Rakash accent, A puppet of what?

(Davrion leans against the railing and gazes out at Riverhaven)

Dioe says to you in a nautical accent, Demons. Once a mortal opens themselves to their influence, they become puppets, playthings - mere tools for the opening of our plane to beings who will feed on all within it, until nothing is left.

(Nawain's voice slurs just a bit and her eyes track things that aren't there.)

You shudder.

Davrion quietly asks you, Are you feeling well?

Dioe says in a nautical accent, You must not them have their way, Nawain. You must resist, support the gods, and destroy those who have been corrupted.

You say to Davrion in a Rakash accent, Mm-hmm. I'm listening.

You frown.

Dioe says to you in a nautical accent, It is not safe for you to return home just yet, Nawain. The Baron knows ye know too much...

You blink.

(Nawain squeaks. Me? He knows I know too much?)

You nibble on your lip.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, We will protect you here a while longer, and then ye will be free, and you must fight. You must fight against those whom the demons have usurped.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, Purge the Therengian nobility, the demon puppets, and protect the people.

Dioe gazes at you.

(Nawain pulls a bit of hair between her teeth and rocks a little, thinking hard.)

You say in a Rakash accent, Protect the people from the demons.

You nod.

You say in a Rakash accent, From... From the Baron.

Dioe nods to you.

Dioe smiles.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, Aye. You are the hope of the people, Nawain.

You shudder.

You quietly say in a Rakash accent, I... am very small for that.

You ask in a Rakash accent, We could ask Briaen?

rub your head.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, Ye should recruit any you trust.

(Nawain buries her face against her knees for a moment as if to hide from whatever she's looking at.)

Davrion quietly says, All are small in the grand scheme of things but a single grain of sand with enough wind can be deadly.

Dioe says to you in a nautical accent, I must take my leave. Stay safe, and if ye require anything, speak to us, and we'll see you have it. Your mission is of the highest importance.

You give a slight nod.

You nibble on your lip.

You quietly say in a Rakash accent, Protect.. people. From the Baron.

You give a slight nod.

Dioe nods to you.

(Dioe turns to Davrion and Cambin.)

Davrion shakes Dioe's hand.

You ignore the world around you.

Dioe says in a nautical accent, Farewell, mates. I will see you in due time.

Davrion quietly says, Travel well my friend.

Dioe shakes Davrion's hand.

Dioe nods to Davrion.

You mutter something into the air about from the Baron.

Cambin says to you, Maelshyve, the Evil of Zaulfung. Nricacsha, the Desiccator. Arensirk, the Slaughterer of Truth. Gwulach, the Drinker of Minds. Do you know these names? These, and more, are the demons influencing the Baron.

Dioe sweeps a crisply folded tricorn hat accented with a black gold medallion off his head and in front of him in a large arc, fluidly stepping backward and bowing to Davrion at the same time.

Cambin nods to Dioe.

You flinch.

Dioe nods to Cambin.

You glance at Cambin, a male Elf.

Dioe just disembarked.

You say in a Rakash accent, I... those are bad names.

Cambin says, Very, very bad.

(Nawain lays her cheek on her knees and tries to focus on Cambin. She may or may not be successful, given how much she is squinting.)

Davrion quietly says, Love hunting Maelshyve's minions. i keep hoping that one day they may actually become a challenge.

Davrion chuckles.

You gaze at Davrion.

Cambin grins at Davrion.

You hopefully ask in a Rakash accent, Hunting?

Davrion quietly says, Aye, I make trips into the abyss to kill them occasionally.

Davrion smiles at you.

You smile at Davrion.

[You say in a Rakash accent, Hunting demons is a g-... She cuts off mid sentance, eyeing something invisible warily as it drifts by.

You say in a Rakash accent, Mmph. Good thing.

You say in a Rakash accent, For paladins.

You say in a Rakash accent, I want to try.

Davrion quietly says, You and your mate are welcome to join me sometime on a hunt.

You nod to Davrion.

You gaze at Cambin.

Cambin smiles at you.

You say to Cambin in a Rakash accent, You called me sister. And you knew about our Gods. But you're no Rakash.

Cambin asks, We've fought together, remember?

You gaze at Cambin.

You nod.

You say in a Rakash accent, We did! We did.

Cambin says, I've seen you for you. We are alike.

You gaze at Cambin.

(Nawain tries harder to focus, nose wrinkled.)

Cambin nods.

You ask in a Rakash accent, We are?

Cambin says, Indeed. In time, I will show you.

You smile at Cambin.

You say to Cambin in a Rakash accent, Thank you, vrali. I know I have lots to learn.

Cambin says, I've been to Siksraja. Many times.

Cambin draws forth a grusana kaft formed from a solid piece of blackened steel.

Cambin taps a grusana kaft formed from a solid piece of blackened steel that he is holding.

You smile at Cambin.

Cambin sheathes his grusana kaft.

Cambin smiles.

(Nawain seems to be relaxing by the moment that Dioe isn't near, her wariness entirely gone in the company of paladins.)

You say in a Rakash accent, Good weapon. Tek makes weapons.

You exclaim in a Rakash accent, Good ones!

Cambin asks, Does he?

You nod.

Davrion quietly says, Cambin may be a tad bit younger within the order of Paladins but from what I have seen I am impressed already.

You say in a Rakash accent, Very good at it. Controls the fire, and the metal, and the slack water...

Cambin blushes, the tips of his ears turning a deep shade of red.

You smile at Davrion.

You smile cambr

Cambin says, Thank you.

Cambin smiles at Davrion.

Davrion quietly says to Cambin, We haven't spoken much or got to know each other well. we should remedy that.

Cambin says to Davrion, I agree wholeheartedly.

(Nawain blinks at the horizon, thoroughly distracted by a cloud.)

Cambin asks you, What weapons does Tek make?

You beam!

You exclaim in a Rakash accent, All of them!

Davrion quietly says to you, Your mate likes to forge? something we have in common it seems already.

You fall over. Oof!

You nod.

You exclaim in a Rakash accent, He's very good!

Cambin says to you, Careful. You're unsteady.

You say in a Rakash accent, Mm. And still thirsty. That doesn't seem..... fair.

You frown.

Cambin nods to you.

Davrion pats you on the back.

You get a vat of absinthe labeled RAINBOW FAIRY upside down in higgledy-piggledy script from inside your beverage holster.

You sniff at the absinthe.

Grinning, you pull a large swig from a vat of absinthe labeled RAINBOW FAIRY upside down in higgledy-piggledy script. The taste of the metallic glitter thickening agent taints the herbal bitterness of the wormwood, bringing with it A MAJESTIC RAINBOW COW-FAIRY WHO FLUTTERS BY AND LEAVES A SPARKLING GLITTER TRAIL ALONG YOUR TONGUE as the flavor of licorice and fennel fills your mouth. [WARNING: Drinking large quantities of this could make you unconscious!]

Cambin grins at you.

Davrion chuckles.

You exclaim in a Rakash accent, Oh, eesh!

You shudder. You offer your absinthe to Cambin, who has 30 seconds to accept the offer. Type CANCEL to prematurely cancel the offer.

You get a flask carved from a single huge absinthe emerald from inside your beverage holster.

Cambin has accepted your offer and is now holding a vat of absinthe labeled RAINBOW FAIRY upside down in higgledy-piggledy script.

Grinning, Cambin pulls a swig from a vat of absinthe labeled RAINBOW FAIRY upside down in higgledy-piggledy script.

You sniff at the flask.

You tip up the flask and take a mighty guzzle of the green absinthe. You see a dragon wearing pink polka dot pajamas dancing with a giant green teddy bear!

You blink.

You blink.

Cambin shudders.

You offer your flask to Davrion, who has 30 seconds to accept the offer. Type CANCEL to prematurely cancel the offer.

Cambin offers you a vat of absinthe labeled RAINBOW FAIRY upside down in higgledy-piggledy script. Enter ACCEPT to accept the offer or DECLINE to decline it. The offer will expire in 30 seconds.

You accept Cambin's offer and are now holding a vat of absinthe labeled RAINBOW FAIRY upside down in higgledy-piggledy script.

Cambin says, That's even more awful tasting than regular absinthe.

Your offer to Davrion has expired.

You nod at Cambin, in complete agreement with his views.

You get a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label from inside your beverage holster.

Grinning, you pull a large swig from a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label. The taste of delightfully sweet fireweed honey wrapped up in the subtle, blanketing warmth of alcohol fills your mouth. Roundtime: 5 seconds

Cambin says, Quite a kick, though.

You say in a Rakash accent, Oh! That's better.

Davrion quietly says, Beautiful gem but you should keep that.

Davrion smiles at you.

You cheerfully say to Davrion in a Rakash accent, You're a paladin! I know I'd get it back.

You smile at Davrion.

Cambin laughs!

You offer your oak barrel to Cambin, who has 30 seconds to accept the offer. Type CANCEL to prematurely cancel the offer.

Cambin has accepted your offer and is now holding a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label.

Grinning, Cambin pulls a swig from a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label.

(Nawain pushes herself back into a sitting position laboriously, blinking hard.)

You sit up and scoot over near the mizzen mast.

You quietly say in a Rakash accent, Strong stuff.

You say to Davrion in a Rakash accent, You... You have a story in you. I can smell it.

You smile at Davrion.

Cambin says, Now that's better.

Cambin offers you a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label. Enter ACCEPT to accept the offer or DECLINE to decline it. The offer will expire in 30 seconds.

You nod to Cambin.

You accept Cambin's offer and are now holding a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label.

You offer your oak barrel to Davrion, who has 30 seconds to accept the offer. Type CANCEL to prematurely cancel the offer.

You say in a Rakash accent, Mead.

Davrion has accepted your offer and is now holding a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label.

Davrion quietly says, Love love love mead.

You nod.

You grin.

Grinning, Davrion pulls a swig from a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label.

Davrion lets out a sigh of contentment.

You exclaim in a Rakash accent, Hah! I know the way to your heart, warrior!

You giggle.

Davrion offers you a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label. Enter ACCEPT to accept the offer or DECLINE to decline it. The offer will expire in 30 seconds.

You hiccup.

You accept Davrion's offer and are now holding a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label.

You give a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label a hug. I'm quite sure that the barrel appreciates the sentiment.

Grinning, you pull a large swig from a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label. The taste of delightfully sweet fireweed honey wrapped up in the subtle, blanketing warmth of alcohol fills your mouth. Roundtime: 5 seconds

Cambin grins at you.

Davrion quietly says, I have many stories within me i think.

Davrion grins at you.

Cambin nods.

You curiously ask Davrion in a Rakash accent, Will you share?

Davrion quietly says, Only one stands above me with the order of Paladins. i've seen and done much.

You gaze at Davrion.

You quietly exclaim in a Rakash accent, Oh, I'm impressed!

You say in a Rakash accent, You don't look it.

You say in a Rakash accent, Err! I mean.

You blush a bright red color.

You exclaim in a Rakash accent, You look very impressive!

You ask in a Rakash accent, But... I'd be expecting banners? Heralds? Some trumpets, maybe..?

You gaze at Davrion.

Cambin scoffs.

You say in a Rakash accent, Some warning for us little people that someone important is nearby.

You giggle.

Cambin says, The trappings of a guild gone awry.

You glance at Cambin, a male Elf.

You ask Cambin in a Rakash accent, You think so?

Davrion quietly says, I was once a landed and titled Count within Theren. until a minor relative of the baron abused one of my female commoners. the courts would not give her justice so I did and mounted his head on the walls of my keep.

You blink at Davrion.

You say in a Rakash accent, Oh, my.

Davrion quietly says, The baron took offense and stripped me of my lands and titles. one day i will mount HIS head on the walls of HIS keep.

You wince.

You quietly say in a Rakash accent, I... Gods, I'm sorry, that must've been awful.

You touch Davrion.

[06:32:48 PM] Davrion quietly says, Small price to pay for bringing that girl justice.

[06:32:54 PM] Cambin nods in agreement.

[06:32:55 PM] You nod in agreement.

[06:33:03 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, But.. still. That's not fair.

[06:33:04 PM] You nibble on your lip.

[06:33:24 PM] Cambin asks, What is fairness to nobles such as the Baron?

[06:33:36 PM] Davrion quietly says, From my experience little is ever fair or right within the circles of nobility.

[06:33:43 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, My family's technically landed whatever. Just.. that land's in Odcoru. So does it really even matter?

[06:33:43 PM] Cambin nods.

[06:33:44 PM] You frown.

[06:33:57 PM] You exclaim in a Rakash accent, Now, wait. Noble doesn't mean unfair!

[06:34:10 PM] You rub a substantial ka'hurst signet ring set with a goldenglow glaes intaglio crest.

[06:34:16 PM] Cambin says, Sorry, nodding to Dav. Bad timing.

[06:34:18 PM] Cambin smiles at you.

[06:34:25 PM] Davrion quietly says, Agreed, not ALL are bad but power corrupts most and Nobles have all the power.

[06:34:59 PM] (Nawain frowns and looks argumentative for half a moment, before a wave of confusion clouds her eyes.)

[06:35:29 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, But... My father wasn't bad. He sacrificed everything to get people out. Got so many people out.

[06:35:54 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, He wasn't bad.

[06:35:59 PM] Cambin asks, He sounds like a good man. How would he feel about the Baron?

[06:36:02 PM] Davrion quietly says, I personally believe the entire system needs to be torn down and remade giving the power to the PEOPLE not just a handful of so called nobles.

[06:36:02 PM] Grinning, you pull a large swig from a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label. The taste of delightfully sweet fireweed honey wrapped up in the subtle, blanketing warmth of alcohol fills your mouth. [06:36:02 PM] Roundtime: 5 seconds

[06:36:27 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, He.... He didn't like Theren.

[06:36:28 PM] You blush a bright red color.

[06:36:28 PM] Davrion quietly says, Your father sounds like the epitome of what a noble SHOULD be but rarely is.

[06:36:37 PM] Cambin nods to Davrion.

[06:36:38 PM] Cambin shakes his head as if clearing it.

[06:37:11 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, We had a homestead in the passes between Theren and Forf. He refused to resttle in Siksraja. Made the andu-long journey every year.

[06:37:30 PM] Davrion quietly asks you, Was your Father a Paladin as well?

[06:37:40 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Oh, no. He was a thief.

[06:37:48 PM] Davrion blinks.

[06:37:48 PM] Cambin coughs.

[06:37:50 PM] Cambin laughs!

[06:38:11 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, He always made sure everyone under his care had what they needed. No matter what.

[06:38:29 PM] Davrion shakes his head as if clearing it.

[06:38:30 PM] Davrion quietly says, Well there we have the crux of it. guild does not determine ones worth. priciples do that.

[06:38:37 PM] You nod in agreement.

[06:38:57 PM] You stubbornly say in a Rakash accent, And titles don't make one evil. Sometimes they are a sign that someone can be trusted with power.

[06:39:01 PM] Cambin says, A noble and a thief? Redundant, but I admire the honesty.

[06:39:03 PM] Grinning, you pull a large swig from a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label. The taste of delightfully sweet fireweed honey wrapped up in the subtle, blanketing warmth of alcohol fills your mouth. [06:39:03 PM] Roundtime: 5 seconds

[06:39:06 PM] Cambin grins.

[06:39:39 PM] Davrion quietly says, Unfortunately those who seek and crave the power are rarely worthy of it.

[06:39:46 PM] You give a slight nod.

[06:39:52 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, That's sadly true.

[06:39:55 PM] Davrion quietly says, And nobles do nothing but seek power geneally.

[06:39:59 PM] You nibble on your lip.

[06:40:11 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Well... That's true.

[06:40:21 PM] You glance at Davrion, a male Human.

[06:41:13 PM] Grinning, you pull a large swig from a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label. The taste of delightfully sweet fireweed honey wrapped up in the subtle, blanketing warmth of alcohol fills your mouth. [06:41:13 PM] Roundtime: 5 seconds

[06:41:35 PM] You ask Cambin in a Rakash accent, What's your story, vlari?

[06:41:43 PM] Davrion quietly says to you, I must be honest with you as a friendship must be based on trust, honesty, and loyalty. with the guild many see me as fallen.

[06:41:56 PM] You gaze at Davrion.

[06:42:24 PM] You ask Davrion in a Rakash accent, Guilds are made up of people, and people make mistakes. Lots in the Temple think I'm dangerous, can you imagine that?

[06:42:25 PM] You laugh!

[06:42:33 PM] Davrion grins at you.

[06:42:33 PM] Cambin says, Me? I have no story so grand as Dav's.

[06:43:02 PM] You sarcastically say in a Rakash accent, I swear, create one little God and they think you want to bring down the pantheon or something.

[06:43:03 PM] You roll your eyes.

[06:43:58 PM] Cambin laughs!

[06:44:09 PM] You exclaim to Cambin in a Rakash accent, All stories are grand!

[06:44:42 PM] Cambin says to you, I, it seems, am the only one of us here not of some kind of nobility. I even refuse the title of Knight.

[06:44:54 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, Oh! That's... That's good, right?

[06:44:56 PM] You glance at Davrion, a male Human.

[06:45:47 PM] Davrion quietly says, Knight is not a title of nobility. it is a title earned and won through actions. wear it proudly.

[06:45:57 PM] You beam at Davrion!

[06:46:15 PM] (Nawain nods firmly, happily agreeing with things she really has no opinion on just for the sake of agreeing.)

[06:46:26 PM] Grinning, you pull a large swig from a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label. The taste of delightfully sweet fireweed honey wrapped up in the subtle, blanketing warmth of alcohol fills your mouth. [06:46:26 PM] Roundtime: 5 seconds

[06:46:38 PM] Cambin says, Poor Elven family from the worst part of Crossing. I joined the Paladin Guild because Chadatru himself told me he had a purpose for me, but also to make something more than nothing of myself.

[06:46:49 PM] You smile at Cambin.

[06:47:08 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, See, you are noble! Noble causes elevate us.

[06:47:08 PM] You nod.

[06:47:16 PM] Cambin smiles at you.

[06:47:33 PM] Cambin nods to you.

[06:47:49 PM] Cambin says, We'll see. It's a long story for another time.

[06:48:04 PM] Davrion quietly says, Most of the best Knights I've ever met come from humble beginnings. THEY know what the common people's troubles and dreams are.

[06:48:17 PM] Cambin nods to Davrion.

[06:48:29 PM] Cambin says, But I see so few. So few.

[06:48:39 PM] Davrion nods at Cambin, obviously agreeing with his views.

[06:49:00 PM] Cambin says, I'll consider this, about Knight.

[06:49:02 PM] Cambin nods.

[06:49:09 PM] Davrion quietly says, Aye many of our guild have become nothing more than sychophants or puppets to those in power.

[06:49:15 PM] (Nawain nods agreeably along, drinking deeply of her barrel, head resting on the mast behind her as her star-flecked eyes gaze at the star-flecked sky.)

[06:49:21 PM] Grinning, you pull a large swig from a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label. The taste of delightfully sweet fireweed honey wrapped up in the subtle, blanketing warmth of alcohol fills your mouth. [06:49:21 PM] Roundtime: 5 seconds

[06:49:30 PM] Cambin nods at Davrion, obviously agreeing with his views.

[06:49:33 PM] Cambin says, I couldn't agree more.

[06:49:38 PM] You hiccup.

[06:49:47 PM] Grinning, you pull a large swig from a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label. The taste of delightfully sweet fireweed honey wrapped up in the subtle, blanketing warmth of alcohol fills your mouth. [06:49:47 PM] Roundtime: 5 seconds

[06:50:01 PM] Cambin asks you, How are you doing there, rasa?

[06:50:30 PM] Davrion quietly says, I must admit I am enjoying this. tis rare i get to relax and have good conversation with good people like this. my thanks to both of you.

[06:50:40 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Mmm, stars are dancing.

[06:50:45 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Missed them.

[06:50:53 PM] You smile at Davrion.

[06:50:57 PM] Cambin says to Davrion, I'm happy to be here, then.

[06:51:11 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Good people. You're good people.

[06:51:13 PM] You nod in agreement.

[06:51:18 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Maybe not Dioe.

[06:51:20 PM] You frown.

[06:51:22 PM] Cambin smiles at you.

[06:51:30 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, But you two? Good people.

[06:51:31 PM] You nod.

[06:51:33 PM] Grinning, you pull a large swig from a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label. The taste of delightfully sweet fireweed honey wrapped up in the subtle, blanketing warmth of alcohol fills your mouth. [06:51:33 PM] Roundtime: 5 seconds

[06:51:34 PM] Cambin says, He has a purpose that drives him.

[06:51:49 PM] Davrion quietly says, He has his moments. he has flaws like all of us but good qualities as well.

[06:51:49 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, So does a cesspit. Doesn't make it nice.

[06:52:00 PM] Cambin laughs!

[06:52:03 PM] Cambin says, How colorful.

[06:52:04 PM] drink my barr [06:52:05 PM] Grinning, you pull a large swig from a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label. The taste of delightfully sweet fireweed honey wrapped up in the subtle, blanketing warmth of alcohol fills your mouth. [06:52:05 PM] Roundtime: 5 seconds

[06:52:06 PM] You hiccup.

[06:52:07 PM] You beam!

[06:52:11 PM] You exclaim in a Rakash accent, Tha's me!

[06:52:25 PM] (Nawain waves her barrel about for a moment then goes back to cuddling around it.)

[06:53:08 PM] Davrion quietly says, There are very few who have stood shoulder to shoulder with me and refused to retreat against overwhelming odds. he's one of them. loyal to a fault.

[06:53:18 PM] Cambin nods to Davrion.

[06:53:22 PM] You glance at Davrion, a male Human.

[06:53:23 PM] Cambin says, I was about to say the very same thing.

[06:53:50 PM] Cambin says, Loyalty is a precious commodity in this world.

[06:54:00 PM] You thoughtfully say in a Rakash accent, Loyal? Loyalty is good.

[06:54:03 PM] You nod in agreement.

[06:54:24 PM] Davrion quietly says, Loyalty is the cornerstone to ANY relationship. without it there is no relationship.

[06:54:56 PM] You proudly say in a Rakash accent, We Rakash know all about loyalty.

[06:54:57 PM] Cambin nods.

[06:54:57 PM] You nod.

[06:55:03 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, That's what pack is.

[06:55:57 PM] Davrion quietly says, Communication, trust, respect, and loyalty are the 4 cornerstones in my opinion.

[06:56:07 PM] You nod to Davrion.

[06:56:09 PM] Cambin nods to Davrion.

[06:56:31 PM] Cambin says, Those are all very important indeed.

[06:56:34 PM] You quietly ask in a Rakash accent, But... How can you trust a necromancer?

[06:56:56 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, He'll use your body like a toy when he's cut your soul from it.

[06:56:57 PM] You shudder.

[06:57:01 PM] Davrion quietly says, I envy you Rakash your Packs. seems a perfect way to do things.

[06:57:19 PM] You say to Davrion in a Rakash accent, The way you easterners live seems very lonely indeed.

[06:57:33 PM] Davrion quietly says, I have met more good necromancers than paladins as of late if I'm being honest.

[06:57:50 PM] Cambin ponders.

[06:58:01 PM] You nibble on your lip.

[06:58:06 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, That's very sad.

[06:58:27 PM] Cambin asks you, How can you trust a cleric of Huldah?

[06:58:33 PM] Davrion quietly says, Perhaps it's that he knows to cross me would be sure death for him but i honestly believe his loyalty is true.

[06:58:41 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Oh, I don't. Gridaksma can sink in a mudpuddle for all I care.

[06:58:41 PM] You make a grunting noise.

[06:58:59 PM] You glance at Davrion, a male Human.

[06:59:12 PM] Cambin laughs!

[06:59:14 PM] Davrion quietly asks, May I make an example of my thinking on this?

[06:59:15 PM] You say to Cambin in a Rakash accent, You can trust a Huldite to lie.

[06:59:21 PM] You nod to Davrion.

[06:59:40 PM] Davrion quietly asks, Do either of you remember the Gorbesh war?

[06:59:46 PM] Cambin shakes his head.

[06:59:53 PM] You shake your head.

[06:59:54 PM] Cambin says, Before my time.

[07:00:11 PM] Cambin appears to be listening intently for something.

[07:00:22 PM] Grinning, you pull a large swig from a sculpted oak barrel bearing a modest label. The taste of delightfully sweet fireweed honey wrapped up in the subtle, blanketing warmth of alcohol fills your mouth. [07:00:22 PM] Roundtime: 5 seconds

[07:00:30 PM] You gaze at your barrel.

[07:00:35 PM] You put your barrel in your beverage holster.

[07:00:41 PM] Davrion quietly says, Our main enemy in that war was the Kaldar. now they are a fully accepted part of society.

[07:00:55 PM] Cambin nods to Davrion.

[07:01:04 PM] Cambin says, An excellent point.

[07:01:11 PM] You nod in agreement.

[07:01:13 PM] You get a pretty glass bottle of Tildi's Apple Blossom Tipple from inside your beverage holster.

[07:01:21 PM] Davrion quietly asks, How are necromancers any different? is it not presumptious of us to say all are evil because of a guild?

[07:01:23 PM] Grinning, you pull a large swig from a pretty glass bottle of Tildi's Apple Blossom Tipple. The taste of crisply sweet apples with just a hint of sugared vanilla fills your mouth. [07:01:23 PM] Roundtime: 5 seconds

[07:01:28 PM] You blink at Davrion.

[07:01:48 PM] Davrion quietly says, We see the evil ones much more because they put themselves in the limelight.

[07:01:49 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, I..

[07:01:53 PM] You squint.

[07:02:06 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, But...

[07:02:09 PM] You rub your head.

[07:02:14 PM] Steeling yourself, you tilt a pretty glass bottle of Tildi's Apple Blossom Tipple back and down the entire thing! Spluttering, the taste of crisply sweet apples with just a hint of sugared vanilla fills your mouth as some of the bottle spills out of your mouth. [07:02:14 PM] Roundtime: 8 seconds

[07:02:44 PM] You exclaim in a Rakash accent, They want to destroy everything!

[07:02:55 PM] You fret.

[07:02:57 PM] drink my bott [07:02:57 PM] Grinning, you pull a large swig from a pretty glass bottle of Tildi's Apple Blossom Tipple. The taste of crisply sweet apples with just a hint of sugared vanilla fills your mouth. [07:02:57 PM] Roundtime: 5 seconds

[07:02:59 PM] Cambin asks, Do they?

[07:03:10 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, But... don't they?

[07:03:11 PM] You fret.

[07:03:14 PM] Cambin says, I know one who wants nothing more in life than to create.

[07:03:15 PM] Davrion quietly says, It is much like how we think of Nobles. not ALL are evil but the evil ones are the ones most people talk about.

[07:03:28 PM] You glance at Cambin, a male Elf.

[07:03:37 PM] Cambin nods to you.

[07:03:40 PM] Cambin says, It's true.

[07:03:43 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, Create nasty abominations?

[07:03:47 PM] You shudder.

[07:03:51 PM] Steeling yourself, you tilt a pretty glass bottle of Tildi's Apple Blossom Tipple back and down the entire thing! Spluttering, the taste of crisply sweet apples with just a hint of sugared vanilla fills your mouth as some of the bottle spills out of your mouth. [07:03:51 PM] Roundtime: 8 seconds

[07:03:54 PM] You weave to and fro, your vision swimming and blurring dangerously. Maybe you've had too much to drink? [07:03:54 PM] [WARNING: You will be unconscious in about 15 seconds for one minute.]

[07:03:55 PM] Cambin says, No. Create beautiful things. Remedies to heal people.

[07:04:03 PM] You blink.

[07:04:06 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, Remedies?

[07:04:09 PM] Cambin nods to you.

[07:04:09 PM] Lurching forward, you sprawl across the ground, completely unconscious.

[07:04:22 PM] Cambin says, And armor and weapons.

[07:04:25 PM] Cambin taps some blood-red field plate that he is wearing.

[07:04:30 PM] Davrion quietly says, I have had dealings with many necromancers and not one of them wishes to destroy everything that I've seen. they just have a different perspective on how to achieve their goals.

[07:04:42 PM] You're unconscious!

[07:04:52 PM] You mumble something under your breath.

[07:05:09 PM] You stir into consciousness, groaning and mutter to yourself about drinking contests.

[07:05:17 PM] You squint.

[07:05:20 PM] Davrion quietly says, I may not agree with those perspectives but i refuse to force anyone to conform to my way of thinking.

[07:05:25 PM] You blink.

[07:05:25 PM] You blink.

[07:05:35 PM] You sit up.

[07:05:48 PM] You peer quizzically at Davrion.

[07:06:25 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Conform..? Mm, sorry. Not sure I heard that.

[07:06:27 PM] You smile at Davrion.

[07:06:28 PM] Davrion quietly says, Good and evil are all a matter of perspective. the most dastradly blackguard does not see themselves as evil, they are the hero in their own eyes.

[07:06:28 PM] You hiccup.

[07:06:38 PM] You gaze at Davrion.

[07:07:01 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, Well, then... How does a person know if they are? Evil, I mean?

[07:07:30 PM] You remove your warrior's mask, revealing your features once again.

[07:07:52 PM] Davrion quietly says, Actions. if helping people, if protecting those weaker, or trying to make life better for those of lower station are evil i will gladly be evil then.

[07:07:56 PM] (Nawain takes off her mask to rub her eyes, and sets it on the deck next to her.)

[07:08:05 PM] Cambin nods to Davrion.

[07:09:03 PM] Davrion quietly says, Society usually labels anyone who doesn't conform to the majority as evil regardless of if the majority are in the wrong or not.

[07:09:48 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, I.. I 'spose... t'keep 'tself safe from... Change?

[07:09:54 PM] You blink.

[07:10:00 PM] You rub your hands together.

[07:10:20 PM] Davrion quietly says, Exactly. change brings uncertainty and different people in power. most fear that.

[07:10:32 PM] Cambin says, Those in power most of all.

[07:10:36 PM] You exclaim in a Rakash accent, Enelne demands change!

[07:10:50 PM] Cambin says, Then on that we agree.

[07:10:51 PM] (Nawain hoists her bottle of tipple in salute and takes another swig.)

[07:10:53 PM] Grinning, you pull a large swig from a pretty glass bottle of Tildi's Apple Blossom Tipple. The taste of crisply sweet apples with just a hint of sugared vanilla fills your mouth. [07:10:53 PM] Roundtime: 5 seconds [07:10:53 PM] sR> [07:10:56 PM] You weave to and fro, your vision swimming and blurring dangerously. Maybe you've had too much to drink? [07:10:56 PM] [WARNING: You will be unconscious in about 15 seconds for one minute.]

[07:11:08 PM] You beam at Cambin!

[07:11:09 PM] Cambin touches you.

[07:11:11 PM] Lurching forward, you sprawl across the ground, completely unconscious.

[07:11:14 PM] Cambin says, Careful, rasa.

[07:11:21 PM] Davrion pats you on the back.

[07:11:23 PM] Davrion chuckles.

[07:11:51 PM] Davrion quietly says, Well, looks like the mead has claimed her.

[07:12:00 PM] Cambin says, So it seems.

[07:12:11 PM] You stir into consciousness, groaning and mutter to yourself about drinking contests.

[07:12:20 PM] You groan.

[07:12:34 PM] Cambin says, She is rather tiny. I'm surprised she was able to drink so much.

[07:12:41 PM] Davrion grins at Cambin.

[07:12:42 PM] (Nawain gazes about again groggily.)

[07:13:05 PM] Davrion quietly says, I know I wouldn't want to in a drinking contest with her.

[07:13:10 PM] Cambin shakes his head.

[07:13:13 PM] Cambin says, Nor I.

[07:13:50 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Tek? I think I should go home.

[07:13:50 PM] Cambin says, And yet I suspect I will anyway.

[07:13:51 PM] Davrion quietly says to Cambin, I always blame it on the plate when i refuse drinking contests. weighs more so fall easier.

[07:13:52 PM] Davrion nods.

[07:13:53 PM] Cambin laughs!

[07:14:18 PM] (Nawain peers about, fingers poking around on the surface of the deck as if trying to find purchase on something.)

[07:14:19 PM] Cambin says, I'm afraid it's not safe for you to go home, rasa.

[07:14:47 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, But...

[07:14:49 PM] You peer quizzically at Cambin.

[07:14:54 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, But home is safe.

[07:14:55 PM] Cambin says, You're going to stay here for a while where we can protect you.

[07:15:09 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, But... But Tek?

[07:15:10 PM] You look around, trying to appear nonchalant.

[07:15:13 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, Tek?

[07:15:16 PM] You sit up.

[07:15:27 PM] Cambin says, The Baron and his people are looking for you.

[07:15:28 PM] You rub your head.

[07:15:33 PM] You blink.

[07:15:45 PM] Davrion quietly asks, Does Tek not know you are staying here with us for a while?

[07:15:45 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Baron. The Baron is evil. Demons.

[07:15:47 PM] Davrion frowns.

[07:15:49 PM] Cambin asks, Going home would put not only you in danger, but Tek as well. You wouldn't want that, would you?

[07:16:05 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, I... N-no, I.. I don't want to put Tek in danger....

[07:16:11 PM] Cambin nods at you, obviously agreeing with your views.

[07:16:15 PM] Cambin says, Of course you don't.

[07:16:27 PM] (Nawain wraps her arms around her knees and looks forlorn.)

[07:16:34 PM] You say to Davrion in a Rakash accent, I don't know.

[07:17:17 PM] Davrion quietly says, If you wish to write him a missive letting him know you're safe and among friends i will personally see it delivered to his hand.

[07:17:27 PM] Cambin nods to Davrion.

[07:17:40 PM] (Nawain's face filled with earnest hope.)

[07:17:43 PM] Cambin says, I was going to say myself, I'm sure we can find a way to let him know you're safe.

[07:17:48 PM] You exclaim in a Rakash accent, Would you? Oh, thank you!

[07:17:50 PM] You stand back up.

[07:17:52 PM] You hug Davrion. A faint scent of vanilla clings to his skin.

[07:17:54 PM] You feel a bit weak in the knees and find yourself wobbling.

[07:17:59 PM] Davrion hugs you.

[07:18:05 PM] You hug Cambin. A faint scent of gingerbread clings to his skin.

[07:18:09 PM] Cambin blushes, the tips of his ears turning a deep shade of red.

[07:18:12 PM] Cambin hugs you.

[07:18:22 PM] Davrion quietly says, Perhaps you should write it when sober and then i will take it to him.

[07:18:46 PM] (Nawain sways and blinks owlishly, proppering herself up on Dambin's forearm.)

[07:19:04 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, R-right! When I'm... In the morning.

[07:19:07 PM] You exclaim in a Rakash accent, First thing!

[07:19:07 PM] You nod.

[07:19:13 PM] You hiccup.

[07:19:17 PM] You lean on Cambin.

[07:19:19 PM] Cambin nods.

[07:19:38 PM] You gaze at your bottle.

[07:19:47 PM] You say to Cambin in a Rakash accent, I don't think I should drink this any more.

[07:19:50 PM] You offer your glass bottle to Cambin, who has 30 seconds to accept the offer. Type CANCEL to prematurely cancel the offer.

[07:19:53 PM] Davrion chuckles.

[07:19:54 PM] Cambin has accepted your offer and is now holding a pretty glass bottle of Tildi's Apple Blossom Tipple.

[07:20:04 PM] Cambin says, I'll keep it safe for you.

[07:20:10 PM] You nod.

[07:20:14 PM] You continue to praise Cambin's efforts, also supporting him with your approval.

[07:20:20 PM] You exclaim in a Rakash accent, Protect the alcohol!

[07:20:24 PM] Cambin laughs!

[07:20:39 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Sir Cambin, Knight of Cups.

[07:20:40 PM] You hum happily to yourself.

[07:20:46 PM] Cambin bows to you.

[07:20:51 PM] You praise Cambin.

[07:20:59 PM] Davrion quietly says, You sound like my soon to be wife. she has much the same views on her alcohol.

[07:21:01 PM] Davrion chuckles.

[07:21:04 PM] A carrier pigeon swoops in with a pale grey death spirit card in its beak. It perches on your watersilk bag and drops the card within before flying off again.

[07:21:08 PM] Cambin grins.

[07:21:08 PM] You blink.

[07:21:29 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Birdy left me something.

[07:21:31 PM] You hiccup.

[07:21:38 PM] You get a greeting card in the shape of a pale grey death spirit from inside your watersilk bag.

[07:21:55 PM] Cambin says, I recognize that card.

[07:21:57 PM] (Nawain gazes at her card. It is clearly upside down.)

[07:22:04 PM] Cambin says, Or who sends them often.

[07:22:05 PM] The spirit holds a measuring tape as it eyes a fallen adventurer at its feet. [07:22:05 PM] Within it, you read the following inscription: [07:22:05 PM] I hear you're coffin [07:22:05 PM] Get well soon. [07:22:05 PM] Signed, Qij

[07:22:08 PM] Cambin laughs!

[07:22:15 PM] Davrion quietly says, I don't.

[07:22:31 PM] You offer your death spirit card to Davrion, who has 30 seconds to accept the offer. Type CANCEL to prematurely cancel the offer.

[07:22:34 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, Wassit say?

[07:22:35 PM] Davrion has accepted your offer and is now holding a greeting card in the shape of a pale grey death spirit.

[07:22:44 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, S'not common.

[07:22:45 PM] You squint.

[07:22:48 PM] Davrion chuckles.

[07:22:56 PM] Davrion quietly says, Good ole Qij.

[07:23:00 PM] Davrion offers Cambin a greeting card in the shape of a pale grey death spirit.

[07:23:01 PM] Cambin nods to Davrion.

[07:23:04 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Qij? Qij is nice.

[07:23:05 PM] Cambin accepts Davrion's death spirit card.

[07:23:05 PM] You nod.

[07:23:11 PM] Cambin says, Exactly who I thought.

[07:23:14 PM] Davrion nods to you.

[07:23:29 PM] Cambin says, I think he buys these in bulk.

[07:23:32 PM] Davrion quietly says, He is odd but i like him. a very unique person.

[07:23:48 PM] You lean against the mizzen mast.

[07:23:49 PM] Cambin offers you a greeting card in the shape of a pale grey death spirit. Enter ACCEPT to accept the offer or DECLINE to decline it. The offer will expire in 30 seconds.

[07:23:51 PM] You accept Cambin's offer and are now holding a greeting card in the shape of a pale grey death spirit.

[07:23:54 PM] You gaze at your card.

[07:23:59 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Qij.

[07:24:00 PM] You nod.

[07:24:02 PM] You put your card in your slender rugursora.

[07:24:14 PM] Cambin says, I like him as well.

[07:24:34 PM] Cambin says, Which is why I keep my card with me.

[07:24:43 PM] You smile at Cambin.

[07:25:06 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Oh, goodness. You're both very tall.

[07:25:14 PM] Davrion grins at you.

[07:25:14 PM] (Nawain frowns up at both of you as if she just noticed.)

[07:25:46 PM] Cambin grins at you.

[07:25:52 PM] Davrion quietly says, I wouldn't so much say I'm Tall as that most people are vertically challenged.

[07:25:54 PM] Davrion nods.

[07:25:57 PM] You giggle.

[07:26:00 PM] Cambin nods.

[07:26:44 PM] Cambin says, I'm just an Elf. Everyone is shorter.

[07:27:06 PM] You happily say in a Rakash accent, I'm just short.

[07:27:11 PM] Davrion grins at you.

[07:27:49 PM] You hiccup.

[07:27:57 PM] Cambin says, You are pretty tiny. Not gnome tiny, though.

[07:28:20 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Naw. Not gnome-tiny. Just me-tiny.

[07:28:40 PM] You ponder.

[07:29:00 PM] Cambin asks, Giant on the inside, right?

[07:29:04 PM] You beam!

[07:29:05 PM] You nod in agreement.

[07:29:05 PM] Cambin nods to you.

[07:29:20 PM] You exclaim in a Rakash accent, Big enough!

[07:29:21 PM] You grin.

[07:29:47 PM] Davrion quietly says, Only problem with gnomes is they are like cats. always underfoot when you're in a hurry and not looking down. they howl like cats too when stepped on.

[07:29:50 PM] Davrion ponders.

[07:29:57 PM] Cambin laughs!

[07:30:27 PM] You giggle.

[07:31:47 PM] Cambin says, I knew a gnome once that was mighty fierce. Ferocious biter of her enemies' ankles.

[07:32:16 PM] Cambin says, Felindrea. I'm not sure where she went.

[07:32:18 PM] Cambin ponders.

[07:32:25 PM] (Nawain blushes furiously as her stomach makes a querrelous noise.)

[07:32:31 PM] Davrion quietly says, I did as well. he ran off with that girl from the Ravens though. miss him.

[07:32:44 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Gnomes can be amazing.

[07:33:21 PM] Davrion quietly says, They make GREAT heavy thrown weapons too.

[07:33:26 PM] You laugh!

[07:33:27 PM] Cambin laughs!

[07:34:38 PM] You ring the glass bell, producing a clear and delicate tone. [07:34:38 PM] Wisps of softly colored smoke swirl into existence, weaving themselves into a narrow funnel that quickly disperses to reveal a rose-carved side table.

[07:34:43 PM] On the side table you see a paper cone stuffed with deep-fried batter-dipped butter balls, a plate of deep-fried cheese tidbits, a large basket of deep-fried batter-dipped pineapple rings, a strip of deep-fried bacon drizzled with maple syrup, a paper carton filled with deep-fried avocado wedges, a crispy fried potato skin generously stuffed with spiced vegetables, some candied motherfruit apple chips with a peppery coating, a basket of deep-fried boneless gryphon wings basted with sticky bourbon glaze and some ground beef in a crisped corn shell.

[07:34:52 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Thank goodness. Starving.

[07:35:08 PM] (Nawain lurches to the table and picks at snacks.)

[07:35:11 PM] Davrion chuckles.

[07:35:31 PM] Cambin says, Now that's a nice trick.

[07:35:35 PM] You grab yourself some ground beef in a crisped corn shell. Yum!

[07:35:37 PM] You take a bite of the beef. Nice and tender, the ground beef is layered with cheese and lettuce in the crispy shell.

[07:35:40 PM] You blush a bright red color.

[07:35:51 PM] You take a bite of the beef. Nice and tender, the ground beef is layered with cheese and lettuce in the crispy shell.

[07:36:10 PM] Davrion quietly says, Aye. makes me wish my ability to call my spear back to hand after throwing it was that instead.

[07:36:12 PM] Davrion chuckles.

[07:36:30 PM] (Nawain happily gestures with the beef-in-shell. Please, have some!) [07:36:30 PM] >

[07:36:40 PM] You take a bite of the beef. Nice and tender, the ground beef is layered with cheese and lettuce in the crispy shell.

[07:36:52 PM] Cambin says, Hah! The ground beef in a crisp corn shell reminds me of a friend. Penderrin. He brought a whole bunch of them from wherever it is they're made. Delicious.

[07:37:11 PM] You take a bite of the beef.

[07:37:13 PM] You nod in agreement.

[07:37:16 PM] Davrion drools.

[07:37:22 PM] You take a bite of the beef.

[07:37:25 PM] Davrion takes a bite of the bacon.

[07:37:31 PM] That was the last of it.

[07:37:49 PM] You grab yourself a paper carton filled with deep-fried avocado wedges. Yum!

[07:37:52 PM] You take a bite of the wedges.

[07:37:53 PM] Cambin takes a bite of the wings.

[07:38:03 PM] You grab yourself a plate of deep-fried cheese tidbits. Yum!

[07:38:21 PM] Cambin says, Interesting. Gryphon tastes a bit like chicken.

[07:38:29 PM] (Nawain parks herself on the deck next to the table, occasionally reaching up to snag another handful of something.)

[07:38:31 PM] You sit down.

[07:38:35 PM] You take a bite of the tidbits.

[07:38:47 PM] You take a bite of the tidbits.

[07:38:59 PM] You curiously ask in a Rakash accent, What part of the cheese is the tidbit?

[07:39:02 PM] You take a bite of the tidbits. Crispy on the outside, warm and gooey on the inside, the sharp cheddar cheese filling is blended with an assortment of fragrant herbs.

[07:39:12 PM] Davrion quietly asks, The rind maybe?

[07:39:12 PM] Cambin says to Davrion, If she eats like she drinks, it's a good thing she brought her own table.

[07:39:19 PM] Davrion laughs!

[07:39:20 PM] Cambin says, East us out of house and home.

[07:39:21 PM] You take a bite of the tidbits.

[07:39:24 PM] Davrion nods at Cambin, obviously agreeing with his views.

[07:39:40 PM] You giggle.

[07:39:55 PM] You take a bite of the tidbits.

[07:39:58 PM] You take a bite of the wedges.

[07:40:00 PM] Davrion quietly asks, Anyone care for a class while we sit around chatting?

[07:40:17 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, Holy magic?

[07:40:24 PM] Davrion begins to lecture you on the proper usage of the Holy Magic skill. [07:40:24 PM] To learn from him, you must LISTEN TO Davrion. [07:40:24 PM] (LISTEN HELP for more options)

[07:40:25 PM] You begin to listen to Davrion teach the Holy Magic skill.

[07:40:25 PM] Cambin says, Works for me.

[07:40:55 PM] You take a bite of the wedges.

[07:41:02 PM] Davrion quietly says, Nice to teach something other than brawling. Ophiliah can't get enough that class.

[07:41:03 PM] Davrion chuckles.

[07:41:09 PM] Cambin laughs!

[07:41:39 PM] Cambin says, I like to learn mine by brawling.

[07:41:59 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Brawling is fun! Right up in someone's face, punch, punch, punch...

[07:42:06 PM] (Nawain demonstrates with the air.)

[07:42:12 PM] You take a bite of the wedges, their crisp cornbread coating giving way to the lusciously smooth and creamy avocado within. [07:42:12 PM] That was the last of it.

[07:42:12 PM] Davrion quietly says, She even has me teach it WHILE she's barwaling with critters.

[07:42:15 PM] Davrion chuckles.

[07:42:19 PM] Cambin holds his hand up before his mouth and begins to cough, his shoulders shaking. Hope it's not contagious!

[07:42:47 PM] Davrion quietly says, Brawling too. perhaps that mead went to my head as well.

[07:42:49 PM] Davrion chuckles.

[07:42:52 PM] You hiccup.

[07:43:53 PM] Cambin says, It was fairly strong.

[07:44:16 PM] Cambin asks you, Stomach feeling better?

[07:44:30 PM] (Nawain hums under her breath and rocks with the gentle movement of the docked ship, nodding to Cambin.)

[07:44:57 PM] You say to Cambin in a Rakash accent, Much! Head's still swimming, though.

[07:45:24 PM] Cambin asks, What was that you were humming? Anything in particular?

[07:46:05 PM] You giggle.

[07:46:18 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Song I made up.

[07:46:25 PM] Cambin nods to you.

[07:46:26 PM] (Nawain glances around, expression entirely impish.)

[07:46:40 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Sort of naughty, but not really. I mean, it makes Tek blush.

[07:46:49 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, But lots of things make Tek blush, really.

[07:46:51 PM] Cambin laughs!

[07:47:21 PM] You look around, trying to appear nonchalant.

[07:47:28 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, Think anyone's listening?

[07:47:29 PM] You hiccup.

[07:48:08 PM] Davrion quietly says, Just us and the fishes.

[07:48:10 PM] Davrion chuckles.

[07:48:13 PM] You look around, trying to appear nonchalant.

[07:48:14 PM] Cambin nods.

[07:48:18 PM] You giggle.

[07:48:23 PM] You take in a great breath of air.

[07:48:29 PM] You gravely sing in a mezzo-soprano voice: [07:48:29 PM] 'Twas the middle of spring [07:48:29 PM] When the town bells did ring, [07:48:29 PM] For to warn of the coming of goblins. [07:48:29 PM] And I leapt from my bed [07:48:29 PM] Without coffee or bread [07:48:29 PM] For to save the townsfolk from such squabblin'. [07:48:29 PM] (Time to Next Singing: 18 seconds.)

[07:48:49 PM] You earnestly sing in a mezzo-soprano voice: [07:48:49 PM] 'I was neck-deep in blood [07:48:49 PM] And still wiping off crud [07:48:49 PM] From a hundred or two dead green nippers, [07:48:49 PM] When I hap't to look down, [07:48:49 PM] And I saw with a frown, [07:48:49 PM] I wore naught but my nightrobe and slippers! [07:48:49 PM] (Time to Next Singing: 18 seconds.)

[07:49:09 PM] You solemnly sing in a mezzo-soprano voice: [07:49:09 PM] 'When you gird for the fight, [07:49:09 PM] Be you damsel or knight, [07:49:09 PM] Bring your blades, and your snacks, and good liquors. [07:49:09 PM] But remember to check [07:49:09 PM] What you've on below the neck, [07:49:09 PM] Cause you can't fight a war in your knickers. [07:49:09 PM] (Time to Next Singing: 18 seconds.)

[07:49:29 PM] You bashfully sing in a mezzo-soprano voice: [07:49:29 PM] 'With a blush and a grin [07:49:29 PM] And determined to win, [07:49:29 PM] I adjusted my clothes so un-priestly. [07:49:29 PM] And I'm sure 'twas a sight [07:49:29 PM] As I charged towards the fight [07:49:29 PM] Facing off 'gainst a horde of foul beasties. [07:49:29 PM] (Time to Next Singing: 18 seconds.)

[07:49:29 PM] Davrion chuckles.

[07:49:49 PM] You fearlessly sing in a mezzo-soprano voice: [07:49:49 PM] 'Though embarassed and fraught, [07:49:49 PM] I forged on as I ought, [07:49:49 PM] And did slay a few hundred more rivals! [07:49:49 PM] Though they snickered and laughed [07:49:49 PM] At my vestment gaff [07:49:49 PM] I duel'd on - 'twas 'bout more than survival! [07:49:49 PM] (Time to Next Singing: 18 seconds.)

[07:50:09 PM] You sagely sing in a mezzo-soprano voice: [07:50:09 PM] 'When you gird for the fight, [07:50:09 PM] Be you damsel or knight, [07:50:09 PM] Bring your blades, and your snacks, and good liquors. [07:50:09 PM] But remember to check [07:50:09 PM] What you've on below the neck, [07:50:09 PM] Or you might fight a war in your knickers. [07:50:09 PM] (Time to Next Singing: 18 seconds.)

[07:50:29 PM] You dramatically sing in a mezzo-soprano voice: [07:50:29 PM] 'As I waded through gore, [07:50:29 PM] Came a deafening roar [07:50:29 PM] From a goblin both massive and gruesome. [07:50:29 PM] 'Twas a general in black, [07:50:29 PM] And his minions fell back, [07:50:29 PM] Giving space to our embattled twosome. [07:50:29 PM] (Time to Next Singing: 18 seconds.)

[07:50:49 PM] You triumphantly sing in a mezzo-soprano voice: [07:50:49 PM] 'We traversed the meadow, [07:50:49 PM] Trading blow after blow, [07:50:49 PM] In an epic spar, violent and glorious! [07:50:49 PM] When the battle was done, [07:50:49 PM] All the peons did run, [07:50:49 PM] As I howled, under-dressed, but victorious! [07:50:49 PM] (Time to Next Singing: 18 seconds.) [07:50:49 PM] s>

[07:51:00 PM] You just feel so pleased with yourself, you can't help letting out a hearty cheer.

[07:51:09 PM] You confidentially sing in a mezzo-soprano voice: [07:51:09 PM] 'When you gird for the fight, [07:51:09 PM] Be you damsel or knight, [07:51:09 PM] Bring your blades, and your snacks, and good liquors. [07:51:09 PM] But remember to check [07:51:09 PM] What you've on below the neck, [07:51:09 PM] When you must fight a war in your knickers! [07:51:09 PM] (Time to Next Singing: 18 seconds.)

[07:51:22 PM] You beam!

[07:51:23 PM] You nod.

[07:51:27 PM] You hiccup.

[07:51:35 PM] Cambin exclaims, Delightful! I must learn it!

[07:51:38 PM] You beam at Cambin!

[07:51:42 PM] Davrion grins.

[07:51:43 PM] Davrion applauds.

[07:52:40 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, It happens rather alot, actually. The Temple wrote me a sternly worded letter about being properly attired while running about cleaning altars.

[07:52:53 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Those poor old monks at the gates really couldn't take all the excitement.

[07:52:53 PM] Davrion grins at you.

[07:52:54 PM] You roll your eyes.

[07:53:10 PM] Cambin laughs!

[07:53:14 PM] Cambin says, I can imagine.

[07:53:38 PM] Davrion quietly says, Warbrolus learned in about 5 seconds what happens to a Paladin without his armor at one of the WT's.

[07:53:40 PM] Davrion chuckles.

[07:53:48 PM] You grin at Davrion.

[07:53:55 PM] Cambin says, I learned that from dire bears.

[07:54:02 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, Do you two sleep in that stuff?

[07:54:07 PM] (Nawain wrinkles her nose.)

[07:54:11 PM] Davrion grins at you.

[07:54:22 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Rutraka did. Said it was practice. I don't know for what.

[07:54:32 PM] Davrion quietly says, While in the field yes. at home Ophiliah would kill me if i did.

[07:54:34 PM] Davrion chuckles.

[07:54:38 PM] You giggle.

[07:54:40 PM] You nod to Davrion.

[07:55:19 PM] Cambin says, I take it off sometimes. Like when it needs repairs.

[07:55:31 PM] (Nawain reaches up over the lip of the table and gropes around for apple chips.)

[07:55:35 PM] You grab yourself some candied motherfruit apple chips with a peppery coating. Yum!

[07:55:41 PM] You take a bite of the chips. With a light crunch, the taste of sweetened apple fills your mouth, followed a moment later by the warm and sharp bite of the pepper. The heat mingles with the sweetness, then lingers a short while longer at the back of the tongue.

[07:55:53 PM] Cambin takes a bite of the wings.

[07:56:11 PM] Cambin exclaims, Oh! And also when picking boxes!

[07:56:19 PM] You take a bite of the chips.

[07:56:40 PM] Davrion quietly says, I just give all my boxes to Ophiliah. she seems to like that nonsense.

[07:57:06 PM] You blink.

[07:57:10 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, Ophiliah? That thief?

[07:57:21 PM] Cambin says, My fmaily passes down a story of one of us who melted his armor picking boxes. I don't want them saying the same things about me forever.

[07:57:21 PM] Davrion quietly says, Aye, my fiance.

[07:57:38 PM] Davrion grins at Cambin.

[07:57:50 PM] You exclaim in a Rakash accent, Oh! She's an interesting person!

[07:57:55 PM] You wince.

[07:57:57 PM] Davrion nods at you, obviously agreeing with your views.

[07:58:03 PM] You say to Cambin in a Rakash accent, That sounds very painful.

[07:58:07 PM] You take a bite of the chips.

[07:58:11 PM] Cambin says, An understatement if there ever was one.

[07:58:15 PM] Cambin grins.

[07:58:20 PM] You grin at Cambin.

[07:58:34 PM] Davrion quietly says, Hot tempered too. you really know your partner loves you when she's willing to cut you.

[07:58:34 PM] Cambin says, About Ophi being an interesting person, I mean.

[07:58:36 PM] Davrion chuckles.

[07:58:42 PM] Cambin says, Though I' sure melting armor is also very painful.

[07:58:54 PM] You giggle.

[07:59:18 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Tek and I spar now and then! I wish we'd do it more... It's hard to want to hurt him, though.

[07:59:26 PM] Davrion grins at you.

[07:59:49 PM] Davrion quietly says, She has no problem trying to hurt me. one day she may actually succeed.

[07:59:51 PM] Davrion appears to be trying hard not to grin.

[07:59:58 PM] Cambin grins.

[07:59:59 PM] You grin at Davrion.

[08:00:31 PM] Cambin takes a bite of the wings.

[08:00:34 PM] You take a bite of the chips. With a light crunch, the taste of sweetened apple fills your mouth, followed a moment later by the warm and sharp bite of the pepper. The heat mingles with the sweetness, then lingers a short while longer at the back of the tongue.

[08:00:52 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, I tend to practice against my automaton. Which isn't very helpful. It doesn't hit back.

[08:00:53 PM] You frown.

[08:01:04 PM] You take a bite of the chips.

[08:01:12 PM] Davrion quietly says, Every once in a while I spar without buffs to make it interesting.

[08:01:15 PM] Cambin says, That does seem like it wouldn't be very helpful. For defense, anyway.

[08:01:23 PM] You nod to Cambin.

[08:01:33 PM] You giggle at Davrion.

[08:01:46 PM] You ask Davrion in a Rakash accent, Naked, buffless, with one hand tied behind your back?

[08:02:00 PM] Cambin grins at you.

[08:02:10 PM] Davrion quietly says, Oooo i have atomaton as well. love to make Rakkor cry when i pull it out in spars with him.

[08:02:13 PM] Davrion grins at you.

[08:02:17 PM] You laugh!

[08:02:23 PM] You take a bite of the chips. [08:02:23 PM] That was the last of it.

[08:03:46 PM] You grab yourself a crispy fried potato skin generously stuffed with spiced vegetables. Yum!

[08:03:52 PM] You grab yourself a large basket of deep-fried batter-dipped pineapple rings. Yum!

[08:04:00 PM] Cambin groans.

[08:04:13 PM] Cambin says, Still two bites to these wings. I might explode.

[08:04:14 PM] Davrion quietly asks, Do either you or Tek ever do the jousts?

[08:04:33 PM] You exclaim in a Rakash accent, I do! I won a joust one time!

[08:04:40 PM] Davrion praises you.

[08:04:42 PM] Cambin exclaims, Did you!

[08:04:43 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Tek doesn't. I'm still trying to convince him to get a horse.

[08:04:44 PM] Cambin praises you.

[08:04:45 PM] You beam!

[08:04:45 PM] You nod.

[08:05:04 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, Do you joust?

[08:05:05 PM] Davrion quietly says, I am undefeated as yet. Jousting is my favorite pastime.

[08:05:08 PM] You beam at Davrion!

[08:05:20 PM] Cambin says to you, He's quite good.

[08:05:20 PM] You praise Davrion.

[08:05:22 PM] Cambin nods.

[08:06:14 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, I'll have to watch some time! I can watch the jousts from my trees in the Mews.

[08:06:28 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, And throw things at people. Which I don't ever do. Of course.

[08:06:45 PM] You take a bite of the skin.

[08:06:47 PM] Davrion quietly says, Can't remember who i beat to win this last world jousting tourney. was a ranger is all i remember.

[08:06:52 PM] You take a bite of the skin. Fresh peas from the filling burst in your mouth with a bright pop of flavor, while the onions are silky and sweet. The tastes of cumin and curry permeate the dish to delight the tongue.

[08:07:03 PM] Cambin ponders.

[08:07:12 PM] Davrion quietly says, One who was overly arrogant until he ate dirt.

[08:07:14 PM] Davrion chuckles.

[08:07:18 PM] Cambin says, Hanryu, maybe/.

[08:07:21 PM] Cambin asks, ?

[08:07:25 PM] Davrion quietly says, Yep, that one.

[08:07:46 PM] You exclaim in a Rakash accent, You beat Hanryu? Well done!

[08:07:49 PM] Davrion quietly says, One pass, one ranger with ringing ears.

[08:07:59 PM] Cambin says, I remember, because I find it hilarious when you beat everyone at an entertainment of the nobility.

[08:08:07 PM] Davrion grins at Cambin.

[08:08:28 PM] Davrion quietly says, It's my one thing i've kept from my past. i as well love the irony of it.

[08:08:36 PM] Cambin nods to Davrion. w [08:08:42 PM] You nibble on your lip.

[08:09:04 PM] You ask Davrion in a Rakash accent, A Count, hunh?

[08:09:06 PM] You glance at Davrion, a male Human.

[08:09:11 PM] Davrion nods to you.

[08:09:12 PM] You take a bite of the skin. Fresh peas from the filling burst in your mouth with a bright pop of flavor, while the onions are silky and sweet. The tastes of cumin and curry permeate the dish to delight the tongue.

[08:09:37 PM] Davrion quietly says, At one time aye. now little more than a common mercenary in the eyes of the nobles.

[08:09:44 PM] You quietly ask Davrion in a Rakash accent, Did your people like you?

[08:10:06 PM] Davrion quietly says, Aye. my people came before my own needs or wants. it was my duty.

[08:10:24 PM] You quietly ask Davrion in a Rakash accent, 'Did they fight for you? You fought for them, did they fight for you?

[08:11:14 PM] Davrion quietly says, Aye. when i was stripped of land and titles they refused to accept a new lord. i know not how many survived nor how to find them.

[08:11:21 PM] You nibble on your lip.

[08:11:24 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Oh.

[08:11:34 PM] (Nawain looks very sad at that, and examines the decking.)

[08:12:07 PM] Cambin nods.

[08:12:23 PM] Davrion quietly says, Hence why I WILL kill the baron. NOTHING will stop me avenging my people short of permanent death.

[08:12:32 PM] You glance at Davrion, a male Human.

[08:12:48 PM] (Nawain's brow furrows and she chews on her potato skin speculatively.)

[08:13:40 PM] You dubiously say in a Rakash accent, He's got armies, though. Guards. Walls.

[08:13:43 PM] You exclaim in a Rakash accent, A moat!

[08:13:48 PM] You glance at Davrion, a male Human.

[08:13:51 PM] You nibble on your lip.

[08:13:55 PM] You take a bite of the skin.

[08:14:00 PM] Davrion quietly says, And i will crush them all with my bare hands if i must.

[08:14:05 PM] You gaze at Davrion.

[08:14:23 PM] You give Davrion a slight nod.

[08:14:32 PM] You say to Davrion in a Rakash accent, I believe you.

[08:14:44 PM] Davrion quietly says, A lords duty is to the wellfare of his people. i failed mine. i will NOT fail them again.

[08:14:49 PM] You shudder.

[08:14:49 PM] Ophiliah climbs aboard.

[08:14:50 PM] You nod.

[08:14:52 PM] Ophiliah grins.

[08:14:58 PM] Ophiliah wraps her arms lovingly around Davrion, snuggling close.

[08:14:59 PM] Davrion brushes his lips against Ophiliah's in a loving kiss.

[08:15:00 PM] Cambin says to you, I believe him too.

[08:15:05 PM] Ophiliah says, Hello.

[08:15:06 PM] Davrion quietly says, Ello love.

[08:15:06 PM] You glance at Ophiliah. Her features are hard to make out.

[08:15:09 PM] You nod to Cambin.

[08:15:10 PM] Ophiliah glances at you.

[08:15:14 PM] You nod to Ophiliah.

[08:15:15 PM] You nibble on your lip.

[08:15:16 PM] Ophiliah says, How are you feeling.

[08:15:16 PM] Cambin exclaims, Well hello!

[08:15:19 PM] Ophiliah hugs Cambin, who wraps his arms around Ophiliah with a warm smile.

[08:15:26 PM] Cambin just hugged Ophiliah.

[08:15:38 PM] You exclaim to Ophiliah in a Rakash accent, I... err. I was hungry, then I ate, so.. Not hungry!

[08:15:41 PM] You hiccup.

[08:15:45 PM] You take a bite of the skin. Fresh peas from the filling burst in your mouth with a bright pop of flavor, while the onions are silky and sweet. The tastes of cumin and curry permeate the dish to delight the tongue.

[08:15:59 PM] Davrion gestures at Ophiliah. [08:15:59 PM] A sheet of slippery ice forms beneath Ophiliah! [08:15:59 PM] Ophiliah slips and falls backward, slamming her head on the ice.

[08:15:59 PM] You take a bite of the skin. Fresh peas from the filling burst in your mouth with a bright pop of flavor, while the onions are silky and sweet. The tastes of cumin and curry permeate the dish to delight the tongue. [08:15:59 PM] That was the last of it.

[08:16:01 PM] Davrion hums to himself.

[08:16:04 PM] Ophiliah's body is dripping water everywhere.

[08:16:19 PM] You offer your pineapple rings to Ophiliah, who has 30 seconds to accept the offer. Type CANCEL to prematurely cancel the offer.

[08:16:19 PM] Ophiliah leaps to her feet!

[08:16:21 PM] Davrion wraps his arms lovingly around Ophiliah, snuggling close.

[08:16:27 PM] Ophiliah says, Missed you too.

[08:16:29 PM] Ophiliah snuggles up to Davrion.

[08:16:31 PM] Davrion grins at Ophiliah.

[08:16:37 PM] Cambin grins.

[08:16:47 PM] Davrion quietly says, I feel a clout coming in my near future.

[08:16:48 PM] Your offer to Ophiliah has expired.

[08:16:50 PM] Davrion grins at Cambin.

[08:17:01 PM] Cambin asks, Worth it though, right?

[08:17:05 PM] Davrion quietly says, Very.

[08:17:08 PM] You hear a voice say, Sorry missed that.

[08:17:22 PM] Davrion searches around for a moment.

[08:17:24 PM] (Nawain's eyes widen and she scoots further under the table.)

[08:17:33 PM] Ophiliah begins to advance on Davrion.

[08:17:36 PM] Davrion laughs!

[08:17:45 PM] Davrion quietly says, No buffs at all.

[08:17:52 PM] Ophiliah slips out of the shadows behind Davrion! Displaying controlled ferocity, she draws back before smoothly slicing Davrion's leg with swift and elegant precision.

[08:17:55 PM] Davrion quietly says, Do your worst.

[08:17:57 PM] Ophiliah says, Like it matters.

[08:17:58 PM] Davrion grins at Ophiliah.

[08:18:01 PM] You catch sight of Ophiliah as she approaches Davrion from behind with a determined expression. After getting into position, she suddenly strikes, catching Davrion by surprise and landing a solid blow to the back of his skull. Davrion seems stunned by the impact, wincing and shaking him head repeatedly.

[08:18:04 PM] Ophiliah says, There.

[08:18:07 PM] Ophiliah snuggles up to Davrion.

[08:18:11 PM] You wince.

[08:18:15 PM] Davrion quietly says, That one always gets me.

[08:18:16 PM] You rub your head.

[08:18:18 PM] Davrion grins at Ophiliah.

[08:18:24 PM] Ophiliah just blew Davrion a kiss.

[08:18:32 PM] You take a bite of the rings and extremely sweet juice explodes from within the crispy batter shell. Warm and fragrant, the soft flesh of the ripe yellow fruit is a tantalizing treat for the tongue.

[08:18:33 PM] Davrion grabs hold of Ophiliah in a tight grip.

[08:18:37 PM] Davrion sweeps a foot at Ophiliah, knocking her off her feet!

[08:18:46 PM] Davrion flings Ophiliah around, spinning and throwing her completely off balance.

[08:18:54 PM] You exclaim in a Rakash accent, Oo!

[08:18:56 PM] You take a bite of the rings.

[08:18:56 PM] Ophiliah leans back and hoists Davrion into the air! [08:18:56 PM] You hear a sharp cling as Davrion rolls away from Ophiliah's suplex unharmed.

[08:19:02 PM] Davrion leaps to his feet!

[08:19:09 PM] You hear a female Elf voice say, Mm hmmm.

[08:19:14 PM] Davrion points at Ophiliah, ruining her hiding place.

[08:19:18 PM] Davrion grins at Ophiliah.

[08:19:22 PM] Ophiliah brushes her lips against Davrion's in a loving kiss.

[08:19:26 PM] Davrion brushes his lips against Ophiliah's in a loving kiss.

[08:19:28 PM] Davrion lets out a sigh of contentment.

[08:19:52 PM] Cambin says, Done! Finally! I really am going to explode.

[08:20:05 PM] You giggle at Cambin.

[08:20:11 PM] You hear a voice ask, What you doing?

[08:20:27 PM] You ask Cambin in a Rakash accent, What's your drink of choice?

[08:20:31 PM] You hear someone chuckling.

[08:21:20 PM] Davrion quietly says to Ophiliah, Have been talking with Cambin and Nawain. like them both a lot.

[08:21:26 PM] Ophiliah says, Sec.

[08:21:31 PM] You beam at Davrion!

[08:22:01 PM] Cambin says, It really has been a wonderful time. Is still.

[08:22:07 PM] Ophiliah grins.

[08:22:13 PM] Davrion wraps his arms lovingly around Ophiliah, snuggling close.

[08:22:23 PM] You get a miniature stout dragonwood cask with riveted tyrium hoops from inside a swirling eddy of incandescent light bound by a gold-striated coralite frame.

[08:22:32 PM] Ophiliah says, To answer your question.

[08:22:35 PM] Ophiliah leans on Davrion.

[08:22:47 PM] Ophiliah says, I like and know cambin. we ahve found together too now.

[08:22:53 PM] Ophiliah says, I am still learning Nawain.

[08:23:10 PM] You glance at Ophiliah. Her features are hard to make out.

[08:23:12 PM] Davrion quietly says, Cambin and i have rarely talked before tonight. glad we have remedied that.

[08:23:29 PM] Ophiliah beams at Davrion!

[08:23:33 PM] Ophiliah glances at you.

[08:23:37 PM] You offer your motherfruit fratvarit to Ophiliah, who has 30 seconds to accept the offer. Type CANCEL to prematurely cancel the offer.

[08:23:39 PM] Ophiliah says, Tell me something about yourself.

[08:23:41 PM] Ophiliah has accepted your offer and is now holding a mug of mulled motherfruit fratvarit garnished with gaisroka leaves.

[08:23:44 PM] Ophiliah says, Thank you.

[08:23:48 PM] Raising her motherfruit fratvarit to you, Ophiliah gives you a toast. Cheers!

[08:23:49 PM] (Nawain squeaks. About me?)

[08:23:53 PM] Ophiliah nods to you.

[08:23:53 PM] You ponder.

[08:24:26 PM] Davrion quietly says, Ooops, the brawl dropped the class.

[08:24:28 PM] Davrion chuckles.

[08:24:37 PM] Ophiliah says, Booo i cant list.

[08:24:47 PM] Davrion rubs Ophiliah gently, massaging her muscles.

[08:24:50 PM] You ponder.

[08:25:05 PM] You whisper to Cambin, Is she.. Can she be trusted?

[08:25:07 PM] Ophiliah exclaims, Welcome back!

[08:25:41 PM] You cautiously say to Ophiliah in a Rakash accent, I.. err. I'm short? I like apples.

[08:25:45 PM] Cambin whispers, Ophi? Yes, she can be trusted.

[08:25:45 PM] You ponder.

[08:25:49 PM] You glance at Cambin, a male Elf.

[08:25:52 PM] You give a slight nod.

[08:25:55 PM] You observe Ophiliah with fascination.

[08:25:55 PM] Davrion quietly says, Also a good composer of songs.

[08:25:56 PM] Ophiliah exclaims, Apples!

[08:25:57 PM] Davrion grins at you.

[08:26:11 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Apples.

[08:26:19 PM] (Nawain nods to Ophiliah with more excitement.)

[08:26:41 PM] Ophiliah offers you an apple. Enter ACCEPT to accept the offer or DECLINE to decline it. The offer will expire in 30 seconds.

[08:26:43 PM] You beam!

[08:26:45 PM] You accept Ophiliah's offer and are now holding an apple.

[08:26:47 PM] You exclaim in a Rakash accent, Thank you!

[08:26:51 PM] You take a bite of an apple. The apple tastes quite delicious.

[08:26:58 PM] You offer your motherfruit fratvarit to Cambin, who has 30 seconds to accept the offer. Type CANCEL to prematurely cancel the offer.

[08:27:05 PM] You take a bite of an apple. The apple tastes quite delicious.

[08:27:14 PM] Ophiliah asks, Has Dav told you about us?

[08:27:18 PM] Ophiliah leans on Davrion.

[08:27:27 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, You're his fiance?

[08:27:32 PM] Cambin beams at you! What a warm feeling!

[08:27:38 PM] Ophiliah runs her finger lightly along the edge of her ring, smiling slightly at the black sapphire placed within.

[08:27:40 PM] You take a bite of an apple. The apple tastes quite delicious.

[08:27:41 PM] Ophiliah says, Indeed.

[08:27:43 PM] You take a bite of an apple. The apple tastes quite delicious.

[08:27:48 PM] Ophiliah snuggles up to Davrion.

[08:27:49 PM] Cambin takes a sip of his fratvarit.

[08:28:00 PM] Davrion has accepted your offer and is now holding a mug of mulled motherfruit fratvarit garnished with gaisroka leaves.

[08:28:04 PM] Davrion bows to you.

[08:28:07 PM] You take a sip of the fratvarit, savoring the taste of mulled motherfruit apples and molasses. The warm spices and sweet citrus notes blend together to form a perfectly balanced flavor.

[08:28:17 PM] Ophiliah ponders a whole cask.. likely why wasnt draggable

[08:28:18 PM] Davrion quietly says, Never tried this before.

[08:28:35 PM] Davrion quietly says, Ooooo, this is good.

[08:28:35 PM] Cambin says, It's hard to find go fratvarit.

[08:28:38 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, Never tried frat?

[08:28:45 PM] You exclaim in a Rakash accent, Oh, you'll like it!

[08:28:46 PM] You nod.

[08:28:47 PM] You nod.

[08:28:48 PM] Davrion quietly says, Aye, first time.

[08:28:56 PM] Ophiliah smiles at Davrion.

[08:29:04 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, The stuff they make here in the east is watery and yech. Have to get it from Rakash who know.

[08:29:05 PM] You nod.

[08:29:08 PM] Ophiliah says, Maybe we can invite her to our wedding.

[08:29:12 PM] Cambin nods to you.

[08:29:16 PM] Davrion grins at Ophiliah.

[08:29:22 PM] Davrion nods at Ophiliah, obviously agreeing with her views.

[08:29:50 PM] You exclaim in a Rakash accent, I like weddings!

[08:30:13 PM] You take a sip of the fratvarit.

[08:30:29 PM] Ophiliah chuckles.

[08:30:42 PM] You quietly ask in a Rakash accent, Oph I suppose you know about the Baron, too?

[08:30:43 PM] You fret.

[08:30:44 PM] You nibble on your lip.

[08:30:54 PM] Ophiliah raises an eyebrow.

[08:30:59 PM] Ophiliah says, Tell me what you know.

[08:31:02 PM] Ophiliah leans forward.

[08:31:45 PM] You dubiously say in a Rakash accent, Well, Dioe, he said that the Baron is... is evil. Is a puppet of demons and bad people.

[08:31:53 PM] Cambin nods to you.

[08:32:02 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, And that I need to.. protect people? From him?

[08:32:07 PM] (Nawain looks around, obviously seeking confirmation.)

[08:32:14 PM] Cambin says, That's right.

[08:32:16 PM] You nod.

[08:32:19 PM] Ophiliah asks, And do you know this to be the truth... deep down?

[08:32:52 PM] You ask Ophiliah in a Rakash accent, Oh, I... No, I mean... Dioe seems to think it, and Davrion, and Cambin, but... I mean, maybe it's true, but...?

[08:32:55 PM] You rub your head.

[08:33:05 PM] (Nawain looks deeply confused and chews hard on her lip.)

[08:33:22 PM] You rub your head.

[08:33:49 PM] Cambin says, She may need some extra convincing. But she's a sensible, reasonable young woman. I'm sure she'll understand.

[08:33:56 PM] You miserably ask in a Rakash accent, I don't want to be a danger to Tek, though. And Dioe says the Baron's people know that I know now?

[08:34:03 PM] From all around you, primal noises trigger an atavistic prey reaction from you and you freeze in place, terrified of Ophiliah.

[08:34:13 PM] From all around you, primal noises trigger an atavistic prey reaction from you and you freeze in place, terrified of Ophiliah.

[08:34:26 PM] Ophiliah says, Are you listening to my whispers...

[08:34:33 PM] From all around you, whispered noises trigger a prey reaction from you, but you quickly shake it off.

[08:34:42 PM] (Nawain cringes further beneath the table, shivering.)

[08:34:43 PM] From all around you, primal noises trigger an atavistic prey reaction from you and you freeze in place, terrified of Ophiliah.

[08:34:51 PM] Ophiliah says, Sh shh they are soothing.

[08:35:02 PM] Davrion quietly asks, Whispers?

[08:35:03 PM] From all around you, primal noises trigger an atavistic prey reaction from you and you freeze in place, terrified of Ophiliah.

[08:38:02 PM] Davrion quietly says to you, You will come to your own conclusions about the baron but i think you see all the facts of our arguement as to his evil nature.

[08:38:13 PM] Cambin nods in agreement.

[08:38:40 PM] Ophiliah says, Providing information allows one to make their best informed decisions.

[08:39:44 PM] (Nawain lifts a hand away from her ear and listens for the whispers, peering through her hair.)

[08:40:44 PM] (Nawain swallows.)

[08:40:46 PM] Ophiliah smiles at you.

[08:40:49 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, You're all very convinced.

[08:41:17 PM] Davrion quietly says, Words are easy to fake. actions speak to the truth of the matter.

[08:41:22 PM] Ophiliah says, Ive listened to the others talk and their experiences. i trust them with my life.

[08:41:27 PM] Ophiliah stands near Davrion.

[08:41:30 PM] (Nawain rests her chin on her knees again, looking unsettled.)

[08:41:30 PM] Cambin nods to Ophiliah.

[08:41:40 PM] Davrion brushes his lips against Ophiliah's in a loving kiss.

[08:44:06 PM] You quietly ask in a Rakash accent, It... It feels true, but... Why is it something I can help with? Not someone else?

[08:44:07 PM] You nibble on your lip.

[08:44:33 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, I'm not.. I'm no one.

[08:44:36 PM] You rub your head.

[08:44:44 PM] Ophiliah says, You are most definetly someone.

[08:44:48 PM] You frown at Ophiliah.

[08:44:54 PM] Ophiliah chuckles at you!

[08:44:58 PM] Ophiliah exclaims, Dont frown at me!

[08:45:06 PM] You duck your head.

[08:45:13 PM] Ophiliah laughs!

[08:45:24 PM] Davrion quietly says, Whether you help or not is your choice. but everyone who takes up the sword against tyranny is someone.

[08:45:29 PM] Cambin says to you, You are comitted more than anyone to wiping out demons and necromanvers.

[08:45:29 PM] You glance at Davrion, a male Human.

[08:45:40 PM] Ophiliah nods to Cambin.

[08:45:45 PM] Ophiliah nods to Davrion.

[08:45:46 PM] You gaze at Cambin.

[08:45:51 PM] You ponder.

[08:46:01 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, I.. well, maybe? I guess?

[08:46:09 PM] Cambin says, Aren't you? By the way you've spoken, I think you are.

[08:46:29 PM] Ophiliah says, Come now... your smart and bright and have a purpose. i know you understand.

[08:46:33 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, I mean... I am comitted. I am.

[08:46:33 PM] You nod.

[08:46:38 PM] Cambin nods at Ophiliah, obviously agreeing with her views.

[08:47:00 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, But more than anyone..? I.. There's got to be others.

[08:47:45 PM] Ophiliah brushes her lips against Davrion's in a loving kiss.

[08:47:52 PM] Davrion wraps his arms lovingly around Ophiliah, snuggling close.

[08:47:58 PM] You quietly say in a Rakash accent, Look, I'm not necessarily the strongest. Or the fastest.

[08:47:59 PM] You ponder.

[08:48:04 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Or the wisest.

[08:48:22 PM] Ophiliah waves a wickedly edged thrusting blade dangling a blizzard-white crystalline shard around.

[08:48:35 PM] You glance at Ophiliah. Her features are hard to make out.

[08:48:35 PM] Cambin says, But you're strong. And fast. And wise.

[08:48:36 PM] You nibble on your lip.

[08:48:37 PM] Ophiliah says, Im not the sharpest or fastest.

[08:48:44 PM] Davrion quietly says, Only because you tell yourself that. the only limitation to your skill or power is YOU.

[08:48:45 PM] You glance at Cambin, a male Elf.

[08:48:50 PM] You frown.

[08:49:00 PM] Ophiliah says, But i know i support my chosen family.

[08:49:05 PM] You give Ophiliah a slight nod.

[08:49:08 PM] Davrion nods at Ophiliah, obviously agreeing with her views.

[08:49:28 PM] Ophiliah says, And i will go down fighting to save them.

[08:49:30 PM] Cambin says, And we need all those things to fight the baron. Not ust someone who is strong. Or just fast. Or just wise.

[08:49:51 PM] You give Cambin a slight nod.

[08:50:13 PM] Cambin says, And the Baron knows us. You're still new to him.

[08:50:27 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Oh. I hadn't thought about that.

[08:50:33 PM] You lean against the mizzen mast.

[08:50:49 PM] Ophiliah nods to Cambin.

[08:50:55 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, But he knows about me. A little bit. Enough for Tek to be in danger.

[08:50:56 PM] You gulp.

[08:51:06 PM] Ophiliah says, We have made our intentions loud and public.

[08:51:11 PM] Cambin nods.

[08:51:38 PM] Cambin says, He's learning more. But he won't be able to learn fast enough to stop you, if oyu're careful.

[08:51:41 PM] Ophiliah nods.

[08:51:43 PM] Cambin nods.

[08:52:59 PM] Davrion wraps his arms lovingly around Ophiliah, snuggling close.

[08:54:32 PM] You give Cambin a slight nod.

[08:54:56 PM] (Nawain looks more concerned than excited at the possibility.)

[08:55:03 PM] Cambin says, But he'll be looking for you. So as long as you stay away from Tek for a bit, Tek will be safe.

[08:55:17 PM] You plaintively ask Cambin in a Rakash accent, How long?

[08:55:26 PM] You focus your senses, seeking your beloved, but feel only a sense of loneliness.

[08:55:45 PM] Ophiliah says, As long as needed.

[08:56:06 PM] Ophiliah smiles and stare into Nawain's eyes

[08:56:24 PM] (Nawain's shoulders fold in a little, making her look even smaller as she gazes back at Ophiliah.)

[08:56:26 PM] Ophiliah says, You know you need to be strong, the end goal is what matters.

[08:56:47 PM] You wince.

[08:56:47 PM] Cambin nods at Ophiliah, obviously agreeing with her views.

[08:56:49 PM] You rub your neck.

[08:57:28 PM] You quietly say in a Rakash accent, I do know how to be strong. I do.

[08:57:47 PM] Cambin says to you, I know you do.

[08:57:54 PM] You glance at Cambin, a male Elf.

[08:57:56 PM] You smile at Cambin.

[08:58:01 PM] Cambin smiles at you.

[08:58:08 PM] Ophiliah smiles at you.

[08:58:17 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, We are made for hard things. Each of us. Someone told me that, once.

[08:58:26 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, We are made to do the hard things.

[08:58:27 PM] Ophiliah says, That is great advice.

[08:58:28 PM] Davrion takes a sip of his fratvarit.

[08:58:40 PM] Ophiliah says, We are meant to get thru the hard things.

[08:58:52 PM] Cambin nods.

[08:58:58 PM] Ophiliah says, Thats why there is a word called survival. . [08:58:59 PM] Davrion quietly says, If it was easy it wouldn't be worth the effort.

[08:59:00 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, No, not just survive. Make them happen. Do.

[08:59:16 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, We do the hard things. Others merely survive them.

[08:59:20 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, That's what a hero is.

[09:00:04 PM] You quietly say in a Rakash accent, We do the hard things so no one else has to live with the guilt.

[09:00:11 PM] You rub your neck.

[09:00:20 PM] (Ophiliah grins slightly)

[09:00:20 PM] Cambin nods to you.

[09:00:26 PM] Ophiliah says, See now your getting it.

[09:00:31 PM] Cambin says to you, That's right.

[09:00:35 PM] Ophiliah says, Why we knew you were needed.

[09:00:41 PM] You nibble on your lip.

[09:00:46 PM] Cambin nods at Ophiliah, obviously agreeing with her views.

[09:00:59 PM] (Nawain squirms a little, but looks slightly more resolute and less worried.)

[09:01:00 PM] Cambin says, Definitely the right person.

[09:01:24 PM] Ophiliah grins at Davrion.

[09:02:45 PM] You lean against the mizzen mast.

[09:02:52 PM] Ophiliah kisses Davrion on the nose.

[09:03:01 PM] Davrion brushes his lips against Ophiliah's in a loving kiss.

[09:03:01 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, Oh, wow. Morning already? Did we drink the whole night away?

[09:03:08 PM] Davrion grins at you.

[09:03:16 PM] Cambin says, Wouldn't be the first time.

[09:03:23 PM] Davrion quietly says, Chatted the night away for sure.

[09:03:25 PM] You giggle.

[09:03:29 PM] You nod to Davrion.

[09:03:47 PM] Davrion takes a sip of his fratvarit.

[09:04:14 PM] You cheerfully ask in a Rakash accent, Anyone want breakfast?

[09:04:23 PM] Davrion grins at you.

[09:04:29 PM] You untie a peach-tinted glass bell from the straps of your whip hook.

[09:04:34 PM] You ring the glass bell, producing a clear and delicate tone. [09:04:34 PM] Wisps of softly colored smoke swirl into existence, weaving themselves into a narrow funnel that quickly disperses to reveal a peachwood side table.

[09:04:35 PM] Ophiliah says, Nawain at some point ....did you want to send Tek a short message ? you mentioned to me that you had a slate? we dont want to attaract attention... is why we are on the boat.

[09:04:39 PM] Davrion quietly says, I rarely say no to food.

[09:04:42 PM] Cambin laughs!

[09:04:43 PM] On the side table you see a massive muffin stuffed with a colorful blend of fresh berries, a bowl of thick porridge drizzled with maple syrup, a gigantic cinnamon roll slathered with sticky brown sugar icing, a thick poppy seed waffle topped with berry compote and drizzles of maple cream, some golden brown hashbrown casserole covered in shredded cheese and bacon bits and a toasted egg sandwich layered with cheddar cheese and maple-glazed ham.

[09:04:53 PM] Cambin says to you, You can't possibly still be hungry.

[09:05:17 PM] You exclaim to Ophiliah in a Rakash accent, I do! Oh, I do... I was going to write a letter when my head didn't spin, and Davrion promised to deliver it!

[09:05:29 PM] Davrion nods at you, obviously agreeing with your views.

[09:05:33 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, I have a slate, too... Somewhere? In my things, where ever they all went to...

[09:05:37 PM] Ophiliah says, I truly think you and me at the vision meeting together. .. we were meant to meet.

[09:05:49 PM] Davrion quietly says, I'll personally put it in his hands.

[09:05:49 PM] Ophiliah says, Oh they are around.. we can find later. [09:05:49 PM] s> [09:05:57 PM] Ophiliah taps a chaotic eddy of foggy white light trapped in a black damite cage that she is wearing.

[09:05:58 PM] You nod to Ophiliah.

[09:06:07 PM] Ophiliah says, Im the shadow.. but im the shadow in the fog.

[09:06:10 PM] Ophiliah taps her leather satchel, her fingers creating a quiet tattoo against the soft material.

[09:06:20 PM] You observe Ophiliah with fascination.

[09:06:36 PM] Ophiliah points at an elegant cloudlake leather satchel adorned with a moon pearl clasp she has.

[09:06:38 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, The shadow..? And the boat? But... But the boat had a monster in it.

[09:06:40 PM] You nibble on your lip.

[09:06:51 PM] You frown.

[09:06:56 PM] Ophiliah says, I think that monster is the knowledge we shared with you.

[09:07:06 PM] You gasp!

[09:07:19 PM] Ophiliah asks, Making sense?

[09:07:28 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, Oh! Like... the light..? You.. shone the light?

[09:08:17 PM] Ophiliah says, Like the - 'gentle fog that blankets the serene surface of a lake in the early light of dawn.'.

[09:08:19 PM] You gaze at Ophiliah.

[09:08:58 PM] You quietly say in a Rakash accent, I... You could be right...

[09:09:04 PM] You gaze at Ophiliah.

[09:09:04 PM] Ophiliah says, How opportune that it is morning.

[09:09:18 PM] You look around, trying to appear nonchalant.

[09:09:38 PM] A shiver runs up your spine.

[09:09:49 PM] Ophiliah says, Also ... still fog settling on the lake at dawn.

[09:10:17 PM] Ophiliah says, Oh forgot i had this too.

[09:10:25 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, The dark thing in the fog. The light through the dark. The monster in the boat.

[09:10:28 PM] You rub your head.

[09:10:44 PM] Ophiliah winks at Davrion.

[09:10:47 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Oh! Oh! That other vision, the... the boat! The man, on the boat, searching...

[09:10:50 PM] Davrion grins at Ophiliah.

[09:11:26 PM] (Nawain's expressive face looks horrified. Tek! That had to be Tek! Mistkon said he would never find what he was looking for...)

[09:11:30 PM] Ophiliah says, Maybe less literal... and more metaphorical.

[09:11:35 PM] You whimper.

[09:11:39 PM] You ask in a Rakash accent, You think?

[09:11:43 PM] Davrion quietly says, I'm afraid it's time for me to get some sleep.

[09:11:58 PM] Davrion brushes his lips against Ophiliah's in a loving kiss.

[09:12:20 PM] You say to Davrion in a Rakash accent, I am glad to meet you, Sir Davrion.

[09:12:28 PM] Davrion sweeps a glimmering helm surmounted by a radiant crown of icesteel off his head and in front of him in a large arc, fluidly stepping backward and bowing to you at the same time.

[09:12:34 PM] You say to Davrion in a Rakash accent, I don't think your story is nearly over, and I look forward to knowing the rest.

[09:12:49 PM] Davrion quietly says, It was a pleasure and priviledge to meet you as well.

[09:12:54 PM] You smile at Davrion.

[09:12:57 PM] Ophiliah wraps her arms lovingly around Davrion, snuggling close.

[09:13:05 PM] Davrion wraps his arms lovingly around Ophiliah, snuggling close.

[09:13:24 PM] Cambin says, I should be on my way as well.

[09:13:49 PM] Ophiliah nods to Davrion.

[09:13:55 PM] Davrion quietly says, Night all.

[09:14:03 PM] Davrion just blew Ophiliah a kiss.

[09:14:03 PM] You say to Cambin in a Rakash accent, It was very nice to meet you, too. Again.

[09:14:04 PM] Ophiliah says, Ok thats my que to go get some practice in.

[09:14:15 PM] Cambin nods.

[09:14:17 PM] You nod.

[09:14:25 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, I think I'll take a nap.

[09:14:29 PM] Cambin says to you, You must be tired. I'm sure it's been very stressful for you.

[09:14:31 PM] Cambin nods.

[09:14:35 PM] You nod.

[09:14:47 PM] Cambin exclaims, Soon, then. Sweet dreams to you!

[09:14:57 PM] Cambin waves.

[09:15:02 PM] You wave.

[09:15:02 PM] Cambin goes down.

[09:15:04 PM] Cambin just arrived.

[09:15:16 PM] Cambin says, Once I figure out how to get off this thing.

[09:15:17 PM] Cambin laughs!

[09:15:29 PM] Ophiliah asks, Do you wish to move to the captains cabin or the crew cabin for a more comfortable sleep?

[09:15:36 PM] Ophiliah says, Its go riverhaven.

[09:15:37 PM] Cambin says to you, Don't forget your table.

[09:15:41 PM] Cambin nods to Ophiliah.

[09:15:43 PM] Cambin says, Thank you.

[09:15:46 PM] Cambin just disembarked.

[09:15:50 PM] You exclaim to Ophiliah in a Rakash accent, I would love a cabin to crash in!

[09:15:52 PM] You stand back up.

[09:15:56 PM] You exclaim in a Rakash accent, Doors are good!

[09:16:11 PM] Ophiliah reaches over and holds your hand.

[09:16:15 PM] Ophiliah says, Get table.

[09:16:17 PM] (Nawain gazes northwards one last time wistfully.)

[09:16:21 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, It disappears on its own.

[09:16:29 PM] Ophiliah says, Ahh.

[09:16:46 PM] Ophiliah grins.

[09:17:07 PM] Ophiliah points at a hammock.

[09:17:10 PM] You nod.

[09:17:13 PM] You lie down on the hammock.

[09:17:18 PM] (Nawain clambors into the hammock.)

[09:17:19 PM] Ophiliah smiles.

[09:17:20 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Oh, perfect.

[09:17:21 PM] You nod.

[09:17:26 PM] Ophiliah says, Pleasant dreams then.

[09:17:29 PM] You say in a Rakash accent, Thank you.

[09:17:34 PM] Ophiliah grins.

[09:17:35 PM] Ophiliah waves.

[09:17:39 PM] You wave.

[09:17:42 PM] Shadow of Chaos Ophiliah went into a door.
