She sighs and nods, "Yeah...I know we probably should. Thank you for being so thoughtful. I was just gonna make some coffee, want some?" She asks as she gets the stuff together to make it with.
"Sure," Eldan says.
She nods and gets enough cups down so that whoever wanted some coffee could have some. Getting some plates out she sets them on the table with the food that Eldan had fixed up while she waits for the coffee.
While waiting for the coffee and the others to join them she takes some fruit and cheese and starts to nibble on it.
Finishing her meditation, Vishanti gets out of bed, slipping on a clean dress, slit along the sides to allow her to move more freely. Pulling on her boots and buckling on her belt, the shamaness heads pit into the kitchen, greeted by the scent of food.
Seeing her Goddess puts a smile on her lips as she gets up and goes to Vishanti to give her a kiss before pouring the three of them a cup of coffee. She wasn't sure what Corda would feel like having, so she would wait until she came in and ask her. She hands Eldan his coffee before sitting back down with coffee for her and Vishanti. She breaks off some if the bread and puts some fruit and cheese on plates for them, "If you want something else love I'll make it for you. Eldan wasn't sure how hungry we would be when he was fixing this for us." She says as she looks at Vishanti with a loving expression.
Just feeling the sift in Derika's energy the moment she enters the room is immediately uplifting to Vishanti, a warm smile lighting up her face as her love moves over to kiss her. "This is perfect, light but substantial. Good morning Eldan." the shamaness says sitting beside her dragoness with a blissful smile.
"Morning, Vishanti," the kobold replies. "You seem to be in a better mood today."
Derika just smiles and rubs her thumb along the back of Vishanti's hand before starting to eat and enjoy her coffee.
Corda was the last to arrive, "Mmmm, something smells good."
She nods as she swallows the bite of fruit she has in her mouth, "It must be the bread that Eldan warmed up for us."
"Must be," She replied as she took a seat with Morgor beside her. After digging in and swallowing a mouthful, "So, what's on the agenda for today?"
"I thought we'd let you finish that potion, then head back over to the barracks to see if you can help those other two soldiers. Then we'll head back out to the warrens and see if we can pick up those bastards trail." She replies.
"Very true, sometimes it only takes a small reprieve from the darkness to be reminded of the light all around us." Vishanti replies with a smile.
She nods in response as she gives Vishanti's hand a little squeeze.
Eldan eats a little of the bread and fruit before drinking his coffee.
After everyone is done eating she looks at Corda, "Do you need time to finish that potion before we head over to the barracks?"
"Yeah, but it shouldn't take too long," Corda replied giving the last of her bread to Morgor.
Getting up from the table, she put her dishes in the sink, the Witch headed to her workroom. Gathering the partially completed Antiplague and continued working on it.
She nods as Corda gets up, "Okay, we'll wait for ya then." She says before the young witch walks away.
While they wait for her to finish the potion, Derika goes to their room and starts gathering all their stuff and checking to make sure her armor was securely around her. Hefting her warhammer over her shoulder, Derika walks back into the main living room and sets their stuff by the couch so all she has to do is grab it before walking out the door.
Eldan prepares his belongings for a quick departure as well.
Vishanti smiles as her mighty Dragoness walks out of their room, ready for battle.
"So fierce and powerful." she whispers biting her lip slightly.
Hearing Vishanti say something a little quietly she goes over to her and wraps an arm around her, "Did you say something love?" She asks as she looks up into her eyes, "Have I told you today that I love you?" She adds before smiling and giving her a soft gentle kiss as she caresses her cheek lightly with her thumb.
"Just when we woke up." Vishanti says with a giggle, "Though I'll never tire of hearing it. I was saying how....exciting you look all geared up for battle." she says running a hand through Derika's hair.
The tint in her cheeks grows visibly darker as she gives Vishanti that little half smile, "Sorry love, I guess I got a little lost looking into your eyes and forgot. I may forget things that I say sometimes...but I will never...in a million billion years ever forget how much I love you, or how much you mean to me." She says as she wraps her arms around her Goddess. Biting down on her lower lip to keep herself from carrying Vishanti back to her room she just closes her eyes as Vishanti runs her hand through her hair, "Mmmmm...you make it very hard to behave when you do things like that."
Blushing even more darkly she finally realizes what Vishanti said about her when she came in the room, "Exciting huh?" She says as she chuckles slightly while holding Vishanti to her, "I'll try not to be too reckless okay? I just wanna see if we can find those guys..." She knew she could get carried away sometimes and bite off more than she could chew...but it wasn't just her and Vishanti anymore and she would just have to try and remember that.

Some time later, Corda returns with the vial of antiplague and you all head to the barracks.
She heads with the others to the barracks in search of the men that Corda still needed to heal.
Renault is running drills as the group approaches.
Vishanti greets Renault with a smile. "Good morning. How are things?"
"Nothing new, for good or ill," Renault answers.
"Well I suppose given recent events that is something to be happy about." the shamaness says solemnly.
Getting to the barrack, Corda handed off the vial to the Captain, "Another Antiplague, I hope to get the process refined to get more made quickly. May I see those two men now?"
Renault nods, leading everyone to the infirmary.
As they enter the infirmary, Vishanti opens herself to the life around her, her vision shifting to perceive the state of those around her.
Again, Vishanti sees the two men struggling against the disease, but otherwise still alive.
"They haven't improved any, but they haven't gotten any worse either. They are both fighters, and giving it their all." the shamaness says softly.
She nods, "Okay Corda....go ahead and see what you can do." She says as She gives the young woman's shoulder a supportive squeeze.
Stepping forward, the young Witch waved her hand and chanted in ancient orc once more. She then touched the first man's forehead with the ball of blue energy.
Relieved that it had worked, Corda moved on to the final victim.
She turned to the Captain, "It is done. They are cured."
"C'est bon!" Renault exclaims. "Thank you for your help."
She smiles and gives Corda a pat on the back, "Well done Corda, now let's go find the jerks responsible for this." She then tells Renault everything they had found out about the dudes with the green arm bands and the money involved.
"You're welcome Captain," Corda responded.
"Hopefully, I'm more useful this time."

Derika puts an arm around Corda and gives her a light friendly shake, "Stop being so hard on yourself. We're all doing the best we can. It's not just about you....we're all in this together. Right?"
"I know. What I meant was that I hope my spell selection is better for a fight then last time. I tried to prepare for one."
She nods and gives her shoulder a light squeeze before letting go of her, "I know...I just meant it's not just up to you though, so no matter what happens, you are NOT allowed to beat yourself up over it. Got it?" She asks as she gives her a hint of a smile while cocking an eyebrow.
Eldan nods. "Our last fight was rather unexpected, we should do better this time."
She looks at Renault then, "Just keep an eye out for any suspicious behavior from any of your men and we'll try to get this figured out. We have to head back to the Warrens and try to gather some more intel, hopefully find where these creeps hide out." She says as she finishes her sentence with almost a snarl.
Renault nods. "Good luck."
Giving her a slight bow she looks at the others, "Alright let's go." She says before heading back towards the warrens, her warhammer held over her shoulder.
Your return to the Warrens goes without incident. Two men standing on a corner glance at you before turning and walking away.
She nods towards the two men, "I say we follow them...what do you guys think?" She asks as she starts slowly following them so she doesn't lose sight of them, but hanging back enough so that if the others don't agree she doesn't get into a confrontation on her own.
