Praise the Sun:
"I forgot, it has been some time since you've last seen them, hasn't it?" Clara asks, heading back to the building site. She then turns to the elf with a concerned look. "Are you alright?"


And You:
"Godrick doesn't seem to be the type to deal with mercenaries," Elena says, trying to comfort Rajni. "We've needed more soldiers here, since the kidnapping."

"Normally undead are unaffected too...although considering where we're headed and what we face it would be a little odd to gift you with a blade that couldn't hurt your worst enemies."Sādhanā says thought fully.

And You:
Before getting to Godrick Rajni stops in her tracks, "Esmerelda told me about her half brother...it seems they need all the help they can get." Her tone seems to be more nervous than it was before. If someone else was already taken from them, what's to stop him from doing the same to me? Resuming their walk she says, "So, she's just here to protect the town? I'm sorry...I just...well, you'll understand later." She quiets down right before reaching the others and addressing Godrick.


Brass Tax:
"Yes, Valwick is growing," Godrick tells Amélie. "Barclay is in charge here now. I am retired for the most part. Anyhow, it's been only a few months since the heroes claimed the fort. There are many things we don't know about the area, but, as the heroes make inroads, we've found a lot of resources.
"Our major adversaries are the Thirteen, spellcasters who sought to fight for dominance over others. Many of them were versed in dread magic, and now, we face their heirs...in the best of cases. In the worst, we face ones who have survived for centuries. Hopefully, your job will be easier once the heroes complete their latest task."

Barclay remains silent, standing at his mentor's side.


Tea Party:
"Yes, they just arrived yesterday. I suppose before you did," Elena says.


When Amélie Met Rajni:
Godrick turns to face the approaching Rajni. "Ah, good morning, Rajni. Is everything alright?"

In all its glory:
"All be fine, it's just...my brothers still view fighting as a glorious thing. I tried to convince them otherwise, but it was useless. I don't know what to do."


Now you’re in the thick of it.:
‘Parce que ce n'est pas intimidant du tout’

Amélie manages to keep her expression mostly blank as Godrick details the potential….no real threats. ”I will definitely have my work cut out for me then. Good thing I welcome …un contester” she says with a rye grin.

Tea Party:
She looks at Godrick, her body language screaming at how uneasy she feels. "Ummm...I just...I needed to talk to you...if you have a minute please?" Giving the woman a nervous glance before looking back at him, "Alone, if possible?"

The Light Shines Upon All:
Clara becomes serious. "It means they've lived a good life. When bloodshed and death are glorified, it means they have been protected. When they become adults and when they see the true horrors of the battlefield, they'll grow out of it.
"You've seen a lot in your life, Alethiro, thus you have a more mature view of things. But you also have to regain that innocence you've lost, as do I. We're married to wonderful people, it's time to lay down our arms and embrace what the gods have graced us with.
I hate to say that 'it will take time'. People say that so often, especially when they don't have an answer, but, unfortunately, it holds true. Your brothers need to grow up and you have to get used to not going out and fighting."

Clara's warm smile returns. "Let's see about getting some more of this chapel done before lunch."


You're In It Now:
Godrick nods at Rajni. "Excusez-moi, Mademoiselle Herveaux. Barclay, why don't you answer any of Amélie's remaining questions? Let's take a walk, Rajni."

He nods to the fetchling and begins walking away. Barclay turns to the attractive Valanian. "I usually let Goddy do all the talking. He's better at it than I am."

The younger paladin gives the woman a scarred smile. "I wear my reminders of bad conversations on my face."


Only the Lonely:
"I guess...I'll just stand here...alone..." Elena sighs as everyone goes off.


Female Fetchling Ranger 6 HP: 51/51; AC: 20, T: 16, FF: 15; Init: +7; Fort: +7, Ref: +10, Will: +1

You wish:
Nodding at Godrick she turns and kneels down in front of Shamara, looking into the cats eyes she says, "Shamara, stay with Elena and guard her. I'll be back soon." She rubs her cheek against the cat's face as Shamara gives her a wet sloppy kiss. Standing up she looks at Elena, "You won't be left alone, I'll leave Shamara with you. She won't let anyone bother you, and she'll go with you if you want to wait for me somewhere. In fact, if you're worried about...someone...finding you, you and Shamara can always wait for me in my room. I'll try not to take too long, and then we can go still go hunting, okay?" She winks at Elena as she turns to walk with Godrick. Shamara goes next to Elena and takes an attentive position.


Ooh La La:
"You happen to wear them quite well," Amélie responds with a smile. "How have you found your time here?"


Hiding Out:
"I think your room would be a better place to wait," Elena says, turning toward the Common House.

Once inside Rajni's room, she sits on the edge of the bed, looking into Shamara's eyes. "I'm afraid, Shamara. I'm afraid my father will come and take me away from my friends. I know I don't know Rajni well, but I see that she's a good person and she needs people to make her believe in herself. I'm sure you do a pretty good job, but you don't talk, do you?"

Elena chuckles. "You've probably had it rough. You've got fighting eyes. You won't let anything happen to her. I hope you won't let anything happen to me either."


A Tout Le Monde:

Accompanying Song

"Relaxing, I'd say," Barclay says, noting the slight flirtation. "I spent the last five years fighting devils on Hannal, so, when I sleep more than two hours and don't have to worry about people dying to the left and right of me, it's a vacation. The people here are good as people can get, they don't hide much anyway. Anyhow, people are entitled to some secrets as long as it doesn't bring the Hells upon our ears."

Elena chuckles. "You've probably had it rough. You've got fighting eyes. You won't let anything happen to her. I hope you won't let anything happen to me either."

I'm here for you:
Even though Shamara does not speak, her eyes seem to portray a kind of understanding. Putting her front paws up on the bed in front of Elena, the cat nudges her leg with her head and purrs. Jumping up on the bed, she lays down next to Elena and puts her head in the young woman's lap.

Soft Kitty:
Elena smiles at the leopard and pets her gently. She starts crying for no apparent reason. "Sorry, Shamara...I just miss someone I love very dearly. I lost him once and I'm afraid I might again. He's away right now...trying to protect us all."


Female Fetchling Ranger 6 HP: 51/51; AC: 20, T: 16, FF: 15; Init: +7; Fort: +7, Ref: +10, Will: +1

So...here we are:
As they are walking, Rajni runs a nervous hand through her hair before looking up at the venerated Paladin. "Sir Godrick, while I appreciate everything you and your people have done for me since I got here....I...I need to know something. Why have you told your shopkeepers that you are covering my expenses for now? I saw Halfpocket today....and he...he said that you were covering the cost of my needs for now. I can understand the clothing, since it was your beach that the ocean threw me upon....but, why are you doing this for me?"

Warm Kitty:
As she starts to cry, Shamara gets up and almost wraps herself around her torso in a hug....as if used to comforting someone...many times. The cat puts her head in Elena's face and licks her cheek, catching the tears as they fall. Gently rubbing her face against Elena's she purrs...almost as if saying, It's alright, I'm here, I'm here for you.

Face to face:
Godrick smiles warmly, glancing at Rajni as they walk. "I am an old man, Rajni. I put more stock in dreams and visions than I do the words of the common man. It was a dream that brought me here to Zahvroma and Valwick. Sarenrae came to me in a dream last night and told me of your story. She told me of your father and she asked me to help you in any way I can. She also told me my dying day comes soon."

The old paladin heaves a sigh. "I must rely on youth to accomplish what I could not and I believe you are a part of it. Your skills as a hunter will make this town prosper, if you choose to be a part of our little community. You can help people and become your own person. Trinkets from Halfpocket's are a small price to pay to nurture such potential. And when you are able to stand fearlessly on your own two feet, then you can buy your own things."

Godrick smiles at Rajni. "I ask for nothing but that you try and be the person that you want to be. The dream that has been hidden and repressed by those who know not love or kindness."


Little Ball of Fur:
Elena smiles at the cat's comforting. "Mind if I lie down for a little bit?"


Female Fetchling Ranger 6 HP: 51/51; AC: 20, T: 16, FF: 15; Init: +7; Fort: +7, Ref: +10, Will: +1

We forget, Time and Place:
With tears in her eyes she stops walking, and looks at Godrick with disbelief, "She....she told you? Everything....? He...he's not like other men....the rules that others live by...don't seem to apply to him. Sarenrae said something about me destroying him someday....but, it's hard to....to see myself doing that." Wrapping her arms around him as much as her slight frame will allow, Rajni bury's her head into him and shakes. "I...I'm sorry...that...that I'm so afraid. He had me for fifteen years....and that kind of hold is very hard to break." She looks up into his kind face, "I will try my best....I want to become my own person...I just don't know how to do that...yet." She grows quiet for a moment before speaking again, "If you're sick....surly there are enough healers here that can help you? I know people die eventually...but...isn't there anything we can do?" Not knowing what else to do or say, she just pulls away from him slightly, but holds onto one of his hands.

Happy Kitty:
Shamara unwraps herself from Elena and walks around on the bed in circles for a little bit before lying down near the head of the bed on the right side. Looking at Elena her eyes seem to say, Well...go ahead, as she starts licking her paws to clean her face with and purring.


The Old Man and the Sea:
"He is a shadow demon, Rajni, immortal and evil," Godrick tells the young woman, his voice like hardened steel. "He has no claim to you."

After the small embrace, he takes another deep breath. "My time, my misspent life, is reaching its end. I have lived longer than most in my line of work. I have watched good men fall and bad men punished. I can't ask for more time."

Ylrhea yawns. "I guess since we're doing nothing but waiting, I'll go see the mayor. I have a pretty good idea of what to ask for."

She gets out of her chair and walks out of the inn toward the mayor's office. A favor...I rarely earn one of those, I better make this good.

"Mmm, I better go too and walk off this breakfast," Sienna says, stretching. "Besides, I gotta smother her in some back alley."

The Caged Bird Sings:
Taking in what he is saying is hard for her and she starts to cry, "I knew there was something off about him, something not natural...but I never dreamed it was that. There was no real kindness to him at all...only what he wanted others to see." She looks down at the ground, "He....when he found me at the Ranger's Guild Hall....when he took me away from there...he gave them a pouch of money....like I was property....and that is pretty much how I've been treated. I know you say that he has no claim on me....but that's not how he sees it." Her voice gets an edge to it as she straightens slightly, "I'll tell you this though...from this day forward....I will never be his again. My place is here, with you and your people and here is where I'll stay...for the most part anyways. I will train and remain vigilant...so that when the time comes...I can destroy him."

She looks him in the eyes with her own glowing blue ones, "Don't say that your life is misspent when I can see all that you've accomplished here. Your time has not been wasted Sir Godrick and I will make you proud....now and in the hereafter. I will use the skills that I have to help the people of Valwick and in doing so...help myself as well. Thank you...so much...for everything." With that she gives him another hug, tighter this time before looking back at him.

"We should probably head back....they might wonder what I've done with you."

"You sure you don't mean front valley?" Sādhanā says with a mischevious grin.


Thicker and thicker.:
”Well that would certainly be preferable , Amélie says with a grin. ”I hope that the night here are equally relaxing. At least as far as the streets are concerned” she says, her tone carrying the barest hint of suggestion. ”Any advice?”


Female Tiefling Sorcerer 13; Mythic Tier 3rd (Archmage) HP: 92/92; AC: 21, T: 14, FF: 17; Fort: +8, Ref: +10, Will: +10, Init: +12, Perception: +11

"Har har har," Sienna sighs. "We won't be long, I guess. Maybe Harakhty will be up by then."


The Plot Thickens:
"I'd talk to Gerard. He's done most of the patrol as of late. Not many people out at night except for Divitia and Esme," Barclay says with a slight smile.


A Day's Journey Into Night:
Godrick smiles at Rajni. "And thank you for wanting to try. Hardly anyone fears for my safety. Concern isn't one of those things that I've known."

Godrick escorts the young ranger back to Barclay and Amélie. "You should probably go find Elena. She seems troubled as well."


Vargan nods at the gnome and tiefling as they enter his office. "So, Ah guess yer here t' claim yer favors?"

"Well...yeah," Ylrhea says hesitantly. "I'd like for Olther's Pike and Valwick to become trading partners. We have a harbor of sorts and get ships in. Your craftsmen are some of the best I've seen and I think an alliance would help us keep Zahvroma safe."

Sienna raises and eyebrow but says nothing.


"Ah thought ye'd ask fer sumthin' fer yerself," Vargan says, surprised.

"It is for me. Valwick is my home, the people there my family. They've been there for me and I want to be sure I can be there for them. I want to protect them and I know I can do it with your help," Ylrhea says. "So, that's what I want..."

"Then it'll be done," Vargan says. "Ah'll write sumthin' up shortly. How about ye?"

His attention turns to Sienna.

Sienna shakes her head. "This is kinda silly, in light of what 'Rhea said. I want a ring."


"Wot kind o' ring?" Vargan asks.

"A...a...an engagement ring," Sienna says nervously. "I couldn't afford one on my own and Cyna deserves a great one. She's the love of my life, the only one I can trust with my heart. I know she'll always be there for me...and while I'm not totally crazy about weddings..."

Sienna sniffles and wipes her eyes. "She's the one person I can spend the rest of my life with. She's my best friend, my lover, my everything. Geez, I can't believe I'm so bloody sentimental...That's what I want, Mr. Steelhammer. That's the best thing I could ask for."


Vargan smiles and nods. "It won't be ready if yer plannin' on leaving today."

"I wouldn't want to lose it," Sienna says, trying to hide her embarrassment at such a request. "We can get it somehow when we're done here."


"Very well, Ah'll set t' yer requests," Vargan says with a smile.

Ylrhea walks with Sienna back to the inn. "You love her that much, huh?"

"Yeah...I do. Not a word of this to anyone, 'Rhea, or I will smother you with these things," Sienna says, finally calming down.
