Kehlbins's group went through the North Gate.
[Riverhaven, Theren Way]
The Gate of Nobles, the northern passage in and out of town, marks the end of Theren Way.  The town wall curves away to the south both east and west, providing a semi-circle defense guarded by the river.  Flanking the road are the Cleric Guild and the Noble Inn.  Providing relief for both spirit and body, the two places though disparate in style, form a curiously harmonious duo.  You also see a Riverhaven Warden.
Also here: Kehlbins who is darkened by an unnatural shadow.
Obvious paths: southeast, south, west.
>leave
You leave the group.
You say, "I was thinking of traveling to Milene's Rose for a few."
You ask, "Care to come?"
Kehlbins asks, "Where's that?"
You say, "Shard."
Kehlbins grins.
Kehlbins raises his head skyward, chanting.
Kehlbins asks, "That I can make easy. What's going on done there?"
Kehlbins gestures.
A beam of clear silvery-blue light descends from the heavens.
Kehlbins raises his head skyward, chanting.
You say, "Ayrell's having drinks."
You say, "Not a bad place to pick up news, if there is any."
You say, "I don't plan to stay for too long though."
Kehlbins says, "I may not be able to stay long but I can get us down there easy."
You smile.
You say, "Ah, I've missed you, Kehlbins."
Kehlbins chuckles.
Kehlbins gestures.
The large, transparent image of a tilted crystal blue eye wavers in the sky above.
Kehlbins says, "Hang tight for a second."
Kehlbins raises his head skyward, chanting.
You nod.
Kehlbins gestures.
A brief wave of disorientation washes outward as reality itself tears wide open, forming an unstable Moongate around Kehlbins!
Kehlbins is drawn through the unstable Moongate just before it collapses.
Novice Mage Yavra just arrived.
The flames dancing along Yavra's scimitar suddenly extinguish.
>look Yavra
You see Novice Mage Yavra of Elanthia, an Elothean.
Yavra's body is encrusted with an elegant lattice of brownish-white crystals.
Yavra has a round face, almond-shaped crystal blue eyes and a classical nose.  His black hair is short and thick.  He has tanned skin and a lean build.
He is a bit over average height for an Elothean.
He appears to be young.
He has a scruffy growth of stubble on his face.
He has faint scuffing to the chest.
He is in good shape.
He is holding a steel scimitar in his right hand.
He is wearing some dark hunting leathers, a lumpy bundle, a metal target shield, some brass knuckles, some metal scale gloves, a light plate mask, a metal chain helm, a pair of black boots, some burgundy cotton breeches, a tarnished lockpick ring, a narrow-bladed flamberge, a polished steel parry stick, a cloth of gold cloak with a violet-shaped enameled clasp, a black thigh pouch, a fuzzy gem pouch, some silver-chased elbow spikes, a card collector's case, a red gold ring, a small steel skinning knife with a leather-wrapped hilt, a tooled leather scabbard and a rugged green backpack.
You nod to Yavra.
Yavra nods to you.
A fierce blue-white glare forces you to avert your eyes for a moment.  When it subsides, a blue Moongate stands before you, rippling slightly.
>go moon
Novice Mage Yavra went through the Gate of Nobles.
As you cross the Moongate's threshold you are drawn through to the other side...
[Moon Mage Guild, Atrium]
The skylights curve down like a canopy over this small chamber, enclosing the northeastern hemisphere in a bubble of translucent, glittering crystal.  A polished bronze telescope is here for students of the stars, but most visitors come just for the breathtaking view.  From here, one can see for miles past the towers and streets of Shard, all the way to the walls of Leth Deriel in the far distance.  You also see a blue Moongate and the silvery-white shard Marendin.
Also here: Kehlbins who is darkened by an unnatural shadow.
Obvious exits: southwest.
You smile.
Kehlbins joins your group.
You ask, "Ready?"
A blue Moongate collapses in on itself.
Kehlbins nods.
You run west, leading your group.
[Milene's Rose, Tavern]
Roomy and rectangular, the tavern for Milene's Rose is always busy, but strangely never so full that it becomes unbearably crowded.  A booth in the corner allows for privacy, and a bar offers service for the thirsty and the hungry.  There is little sign of disarray anywhere.  You also see the publican.
Also here: Kehlbins who is darkened by an unnatural shadow, Shavay, Lifeblade Sarcio, Shyna, Mother Jaelia who is emanating a benevolent holy aura, Roughneck Rileos, Philomath Miskton, Stray Stelling, Heart Tender Kethrai, Mountain Lord Ezerak, Desert Dancer Zersha and Wind Runner Aerivyn.

Jaelia asks, "Oh wait, are they ... that one?"
Zersha says to Aerivyn, "I don't know any rumors, save this one now."
Zersha chortles softly at some secret joke.
Rileos flashes a quick grin.
Veteran Apprentice Anuril just arrived.
Stelling chuckles at Zersha.
Anuril takes his rightful place beside Kethrai.
Aerivyn asks Jaelia, "Which one?  The one Ezerak just told?"
You smile.
Zersha grins at Stelling, her dimples flashing into view.
Kethrai places his hands on Anuril's shoulders and directs a soft, rumbling purr in his direction as Kethrai presses his forehead against Anuril's.
Jaelia says to Aerivyn, "Oh, my apologies, you are not the one who stabbed Lady Ayrell or Court Mage Miskton, please forgive me for a momentary lapse."
Aerivyn grins.
Zersha blinks at Jaelia.
Aerivyn says, "No, I try not to stab them."
Ezerak chuckles.
Ezerak waves to Anuril.
Miskton chuckles.
Rileos asks Miskton, "Wait, you got shanked?"
Anuril smirks.
Zersha quietly asks Stelling, "Is stabbing an issue at these things?"
Rileos says to Miskton, "I mean, it's been a long time comin, let's be honest here."
Miskton says, "Not recently, but yes. That Rakash mercenary, Kasizva."
Rileos looks at Miskton, obviously trying not to grin.
Stelling says to Zersha, "Well it is Shard."
Jaelia says to Rileos, "I told him to stop going to the prison so often."
You laugh!
Aerivyn says, "Ayrell will be along shortly.  All things considered, she needed a little more time to... brace herself for conversation."
Aerivyn says, "She asked me to be here to greet people."
You ask Miskton, "He showed up recently in Siksraja, no?"
Rileos says to Jaelia, "S'where the real party is at, though."
Miskton says to you, "I've heard so, yes."

Ayrell says to Aerivyn, "And you wasted no time with that."
Aerivyn says to Ayrell, "I'm quick."

Aerivyn chuckles.
Nawain says, "That's definitely alchemy! And also small children."
Nawain says, "Pets, probably, too."
Zersha blinks at Nawain.
You chuckle.
Rileos gazes off into the distance.
Ayrell says to Aerivyn, "Well, this is more of a fun social gathering, but I prefer not to withhold information."

Onara smiles at Anuril, revealing the dimples in her cheeks.
>drink my expanse
You take a sip of the Expanse.  A gin base is accompanied by an upfront lemony sourness, with floral notes and a strong touch of cherry.  The tartness is balanced out by sweetness from the other ingredients, as well as the rich, slightly foamy texture of the drink.  The sweetness and texture also help to mask the drink's potency, though it still leaves a faint burning sensation.
Ezerak accepts Miskton's Grey Expanse.
Ezerak says to Miskton, "Thank you."
Nawain exclaims, "Oo!"
Aerivyn says, "Okay, well... I don't have a LOT of information, but I have a little."

Miskton grins.
You say to Miskton, "A little sour, a little sweet. Superb."
Stelling chuckles.
Aerivyn says, "Basically, there have been some whispers that someone has set their sights on Shard.  I couldn't get a name, so I don't have the most important piece of information.  But I heard that the quick dispatching of Kasizva helped deter further attacks, for the time being."
Jaelia frowns.
Zersha says to Miskton, "If I can't walk home, I'll know who to blame."
Zersha looks at Miskton, obviously trying not to grin, but the dimples in her cheeks give her away.
You gaze at Aerivyn.
Miskton gazes at Aerivyn.
Aerivyn says, "If the whispers are accurate, though, the attack was made on the Guard because they are viewed as standing in the way of... infiltration?  Not sure that's the right word, but... you know."
Kethrai ponders.
Kethrai says, "I would think the Sentinels would be the target, there."
Aerivyn says, "From what I hear, the city isn't quite in the clear.  So I'm going to continue to see if I can gather more information."
Kethrai says, "But that might be too direct an attack on the city."
>look Aerivyn
You see Wind Runner Aerivyn Eiryse-Lyssae, Horse Whisperer of Ilithi, an Elf.
Aerivyn has a sculpted diamond-shaped face with elegant arched eyebrows, pointed ears and thick-lashed jade eyes.  Her snow-white-streaked black hair is very long and wavy, and is worn in an elegant upswept arrangement threaded with some strands of black rubies.  She has pale skin and a lithe figure.
She appears to be young.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a sinuous open choker of luminous crimson moonsilver adorned with a Gemfire ruby, a long leather highwayman's cloak, a form-hugging bodice of onyx Elven silk embellished with Gemfire ruby beadwork, a long platinum hairpin set with a large sparkling dragon's heart ruby, a florid crimson moonsilver engagement ring crowned with a rose-cut Gemfire ruby, a darkened steel ring encircled by inlaid cambrinth daggers, a functional sword belt with a farmer's hand sickle and an ivory-hilted jambiya hanging from it, a pair of tight-fitting black leather pants corset laced from hip to hem and a pair of black silk thigh-high boots with silver wildlace overlay.
Zersha furrows her brow.
Zersha takes a sip of her Expanse.
Aerivyn says to Kethrai, "Maybe they're more worried about the strength of the Guard."
Aerivyn chuckles.
Ayrell chuckles.
Anuril studies the faces around him.
Ayrell says to Aerivyn, "I would take that as a compliment."
Aerivyn grins at Ayrell.
Nawain chuckles.

Aerivyn says, "But that's what I have, for now.  I'll pass along more information as it becomes available, if it does."

You ask Aerivyn, "Do you know who wishes to infiltrate the city?"
Ayrell says to Aerivyn, "Thank you."
Miskton says to Aerivyn, "Thank you for looking into this."
Aerivyn shakes her head at you.
Jaelia smiles at Aerivyn.
Aerivyn says to you, "All I know is that, whoever it is, has taken issue with the city's independence, culture, and history and want to... integrate themselves within the wall."
Aerivyn says, "I just have yet to find that elusive... who."
Zersha gazes thoughtfully at Aerivyn.
You nod to Aerivyn.
Jaelia says, "Sometimes who matters less than why."
Onara rubs her neck.
Aerivyn says, "Walls, plural. S's are important."
Aerivyn smirks.
Ayrell begins chortling at Aerivyn.
Miskton says, "Yes, a singular wall in this area usually leads thoughts in a specific direction."
Miskton grins.
Jaelia says, "It is very complimentary the Guard has been that effective."
Ayrell nods at Miskton, obviously agreeing with his views.
Jaelia grins at Miskton.
Kethrai ponders.
Jaelia smiles at Ayrell.
Zersha asks, "The guard is Shard's...guard?"
Zersha giggles.
Aerivyn says, "That's the only reason I thought I should clarify instead of pretending I didn't say it wrong."
Aerivyn grins.
Ayrell nods to Zersha.
Zersha grins at Ayrell, her dimples flashing into view.
Ayrell smiles.
Ruea just arrived.
Jaelia beams at Ruea!

Ayrell waves to Ruea.
Zersha grins at Ayrell, her dimples flashing into view.
Miskton smiles at Ruea.
Ruea says, "Oh good, I didn't miss the fun."

>look ruea
You see Ruea Shai'lin, an Elf.
Ruea has a softly featured face with high cheekbones, delicately pointing ears, dark lashes framing prismatic silver eyes and a fine, straight nose.  Her champagne-blonde hair is hip length and marked with a frost-white streak over one temple, and is worn loose.  She has sun-kissed skin and a poised willowy figure.
She is petite for an Elf.
She appears to be young.
Her face is accentuated by tiny peacock jaspers ringed by halos of gently glowing blackened moonsilver.  Arching over her left eyebrow, the vibrant teal gems glitter in a shimmering constellation which travels along the temple before descending across your cheekbone in soft swirls.
She has a tattoo of a delicate vine winding across her collarbone, dappled with an array of violets created in a muted watercolor design. Fine lines of verdant green extend over her upper arm, each blossom captured at a different angle and phase of bloom. Delicate shades of indigo accentuate the violet buds as the design trails upward, caressing the collarbone before ending on her shoulder.
She has faint scuffing to the neck, faint scuffing to the right hand, faint scuffing to the left hand, faint scuffing to the left eye.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a fragile aldamdin earcuff suspending a wire-wrapped dawnbreak diamond, an artistically sculpted peacock-hued dress trailed by a feathered train, a fragile pilonu of blackened moonsilver chains joined by vivid peacock jaspers, a scorched witchclaw band inlaid with a lurid purple crystal knot, a delicate windsteel ring cradling a faceted moss agate with striking inclusions and a delicate pair of glass slippers affixed with twisted heels.

Zersha giggles at Illiya.
Ayrell chuckles.
You warmly say to Illiya, "Congratulations on another edition of Berries, Illi."

Ruea smiles at Anuril.
Zersha says to Illiya, "I very much enjoyed the issue of Berries & Ink."
Illiya beams at you!  What a warm feeling!
Ayrell says, "Yes, I was so distracted by Aerivyn's professionalism, if I missed any greetings, I do apologize."
Jaelia lets out a hearty cheer for Illiya!
Jaelia looks at you and lets out a hearty cheer on your behalf!
Ruea says to Anuril, "Thsoe are lovely pants.  Glad to see you wearing them."
Ruea gives Rileos a good pinch!

Aerivyn says to Ayrell, "Said that if I was professional, we could move on to fun.  So I think we're onto the fun now."
Ayrell nods to Aerivyn.
Rileos leans on Ruea.
You ask Aerivyn, "You mentioned the words infiltrate and integrate. Is that your analysis, or perhaps your sources?"
Ayrell laughs softly, trying to hide her amusement.
Anuril dryly says to Aerivyn, "You've given a room full of adventurers a thread and they're going to pull on it."
Anuril takes a sip of his mead.
Ruea says to Rileos, "I'm absolutely thrilled you don't wear plate armor anymore."

Celestian Onara drifts east.
Aerivyn says, "Which sounds a bit more nefarious, if you ask me."
Rileos says to Ruea, "I still got it around, don't tempt me."
You nod at Aerivyn, in complete agreement with her views.
Illiya smiles at Sarcio, revealing the dimples in her cheeks.
Jaelia says, "It does, it sounds like trying to take over and reset the entire City's mindset."
Rileos appears to be trying hard not to grin.
Ruea snickers at Rileos.
Aerivyn says, "Sneaking in to break things from the inside out."
You softly say to Aerivyn, "Especially if their method of integration involved ambushing the Guard with an assassin."
Aerivyn nods at you, obviously agreeing with your views.
Illiya ponders.
Ayrell says, "This is why I have asked Aerivyn to keep her ears to the ground.  If another attack may be coming, I would prefer to know as far in advance as possible."
Illiya asks, "I missed the beginning of this thread and I'm not exactly sure what we're talking about.. is an attack coming?"
Stelling says to Illiya, "I think Shavay is planning to, yes."

Shavay says to Illiya, "No, that's Stelling."

Rileos says to Kethrai, "Gods I hope not, don't need that nonsense again."
Zersha says, "After he tucked tail, I dbout it."

Illiya exclaims to Miskton, "This is amazing!"
Zersha asks Kethrai, "Maybe, but he gave up Shard after having it in his grasp and slunk back to the desert to hide.  Why come back?"

Ezerak chuckles.
Ruea takes a sip of her Expanse.
Stelling shrugs.
Zersha says to Kethrai, "His hold on Velaka?  I assure you, it is not his."
