" Well then gentlemen I suppose I will bid you both Adieu for now. I wil make my way to meet with La soeur plus âgée, and hopefully find Gerard in thier camp"Amélie says with a smile, holding on to Barclay's hand a second or so longer nefore walking off, a little extra sway in her step.
Giving Ylrhea's shoulder a squeeze, Sādhanā stands up looking at the rest of the group. "Ok let's get our gear together and I'll go wake Arista, it's time we moved on."
"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.
"Perhaps it has to do with my paternal family history. According to Tarja, one of my father's ancestors was a very devout follower of Sarenrae and very powerful. This blade actually belonged to him, and when he died, Sarenrae hid it until one of his line was worthy enough to wield it. I guess that's me."
------------------------------------------------
Prepare to fast forward:
A thought struck Drago as everyone started to rise from their seats. "You all go ahead and get ready to leave. I'm going to make a stop by the Mayor, I know what my favor is." As both he and Tarja made their way to the Mayor, many were staring at the Eidolon. Does one ever get used to the staring? He thought to her.
Drago stood there stunned, This man knows some of my family's history. I'll have to come back at a later date. Coming out of his stupor, "While I appreciate the history lesson, and would love to learn more, I unfortunately do not have the time. I'm here to claim my favor."
Drago reached for his belt pouch, pulled some coin, and placed it on the desk. "I'm guessing that like every other large city, that there are a number of indiviuals that are poor, orphaned, disabled, or in some way unable to help themselves. Take this coin and use it to help those people. Some blankets, a hot meal, could go a long way in fortifying their spirits."
Rajni walks into her room and sees Elena asleep on her bed, Shamara curled up next to her. Upon her entering, Shamara stirs and stands up on the bed stretching and purring as if to say, Didn't I do a good job?. Rajni walks over to the side Shamara is on and sits on the bed while petting her. Reaching over her companion she gently shakes Elena, "Hey there...I'm back."
"And may Sarenrae's blessings be upon you as well." Drago said with a bow. Before leaving, he looked back and said, "Until we meet again Mayor." Leaving the office, Drago headed to meet the others.
Rajni puts out an arm to stabilize Elena as she nearly topples off the bed. Sitting down on the bed Rajni sighs, her eyes contain the barest hint of someone that had been crying...but there's a small smile of contentment on her face as she looks at Elena.
"I'm sorry if I startled you...you don't have to apologize, I was just talking with Godrick. When I got back you had fallen asleep with Shamara, it's no big deal. She's a cat, she likes taking naps...sometimes alot of them. So...do you wanna go out first, or sit and talk? You look pretty jumpy to be huntin' down wild boar." She says the last bit with a smile as she nudges Elena's arm with her own.
Rajni shrugs, "Sure...I'm sure we'll have time to talk while I'm cleaning my kills." Getting up off the bed she grabs her bow and slings it over her shoulder, but there are no arrows or quiver to be seen.
Upstairs Arista snores softly while she lays fast asleep on the bed. With one hand tucked under her cheek, her other arm hangs off the bed with her hair falling all around her.
Smiling Rajni takes the long bow and holds it in a firing stance. While being careful not to point it at Elena, she pulls back on the string. As she does so an arrow appears, ready to fire. Using her other hand she plucks the arrow off of the string...and it disapears. "Like that." She goes to the door and opens it, "Is there somewhere I can fill up my canteen and waterskin before we head out?"
"There's a well by Hadrinn's. They just put it in the other day," Elena says, heading out of the Common House. She freezes in terror as she sees the burly bearded man with a broad scimitar at his side. "F-f-father..."
Rafat strokes his beard as he sees his daughter emerging from the Common House. He hoped it wasn't as common as it sounded. "Elena! Why are you here? You knew I was arriving today, you should have been at the docks!"
He takes in her outfit and sneers. "And what is this garbage that you are dressed in? Did you not read my letter? I want you dressed in proper Mahila priestess attire! You bring me shame like your mother's sister!"
He narrows his eyes at the emerging fetchling. "Are you being influenced by others? I see two people building a chapel by themselves. Why do I not see a shrine to Amanurata? Have you forsaken your religion as well as your morals?"
His nostrils flare as his face tightens in anger. Rafat grabs his daughter by the arm, his grip unkind. "Come! I will have words with your mother and you will have to be disciplined!"
Shamara leaps off the bed and gets between Rafat and Elena, her hackles raised she hisses at him. Rajni joining Elena's side, uses her bow to strike his arm and release Elena.
The rage on her face is more than apparent as she levels her bow at him, "GET YOUR HANDS OFF OF HER...RIGHT NOW!!! I don't know where you came from...but this is Valwick and you will NOT touch her! You have NO power over her here!" As she yells out she draws back the string on her bow and levels the arrow at his chest. Using her other arm she draws Elena behind her while he grasps his hand in pain.
