"Would you care for some tea and dorayaki?" Ieyasu asks. "I can have it ready in a few minutes?"

Malyoxa leans against Hitome. "Okay."

Hehehe...I knew it, I knew it.

For once, Jin's dreams are peaceful. As she snuggles closer to Laenid, a soft smile spreads on her lips as she sleeps.

She dreams of a life after all the fighting and conflict is over. The sound of children's laughter fills her dream, as a feeling of contentment and peace washes over her. Something she had not felt in a very long time. She was home, and she was loved.

Rajni nods, "That sounds great. Thank you Mr. Ieyasu." She says, giving Shar's head an affectionate rub.


As Rajni leaves the Old Fish, she sees Malyoxa and Hitome on the beach.

Rajni watches the two for a moment. Noting their body language, she decides against bothering them. It was obvious that they wanted some time alone.

Still upset over the loud mouth jerk in Ieyasu's place, Rajni wraps her cloak around her and heads home. Talking to Toni would help her feel better, and she needed to warn her about the creep anyways.

Rajni picks up her pace a little as she heads home with Shar. She was finally starting to feel the cold and the last thing she wanted to do before Elena and Kama's wedding was get sick.

After getting back home, Rajni hangs up her cloak before going to the kitchen to warm up for a minute and see if Toni had come down at all, or if she was still in her room. Going to the stove she stands in front of it and rubs her hands together.


Toni walks into the kitchen a few moments after Rajni. "You doing okay?"


Female Drow Sorcerer 8; HP: 50/50; AC: 15, T: 14; FF: 11; Fort: +2, Ref: +5, Will: +6 (+2 vs Enchantments); Init: +7; Perception: +13

"We shouldn't stay out here too long," Malyoxa says to Hitome. "The wind's getting a little colder."

Running her hands p and down along Malyoxa's shoulders, Hitome nods. "The last thing I'd want is for you to come down with a cold too." she says slipping an arm around her slender waist. "So how does coming over somewhere in the afternoon to move your stuff over sound?" she asks as they head back.


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

Rajni shakes her head, "Everything was fine...at first. Then there was that Toska guy talking about those Kamakazi guys again...or whoever they are. I can never remember the name he calls them. Then super jerk from Dillon's school shows up while we're at The Old Fish talking out his....rear about stuff that he just....some guys should just wear a muzzle, ya know?" Even though Rajni is trying to control her voice, the pitch is slightly higher than usual, and even though she's warming her hands by the stove, they shake slightly.

"That sounds good," Malyoxa says. "It'll give us time to talk to certain people who might or might not object to our tentative arrangement."


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

Rajni then explains to Toni about Toska and what he said about the guys they went to check on and what happened there, including her idea to have Arista go with them to help maybe try to come to some kind of agreement, and his objections to that and why. She also tells her about what Ieyasu said about them being self serving and trying to deal with them a different way.

Then taking a deep breath she tells her about rude jerk and all the stuff he said to Rajni, "Then that stupid piece of garbage said that he could understand why Dillon liked me, because firey women were good...you know." She says, looking so angry that her eyes nearly pulsate.

Hitome smiles. "The only thing I anticipate from Jin is a sense of triumph and feigned innocence." the paladin says with a chuckle.


Female Drow Sorcerer 8; HP: 50/50; AC: 15, T: 14; FF: 11; Fort: +2, Ref: +5, Will: +6 (+2 vs Enchantments); Init: +7; Perception: +13

"I'm sure she'll bake a cake when she finds out," Malyoxa says with a chuckle. "I'm more concerned about Toni. She has lost a lot and she's just started opening up to me. Not that this changes that friendship, but she may perceive this as some sort of betrayal."

Toni puts a hand on Rajni's shoulder briefly before putting a kettle on. "There are people like that wherever you go and you know why Dillon is in love with you. It's not like this man knows better than him."

She then looks lost in thought for a moment. "Arista's got a lot going on right now and I don't want to pull her into Summoner business. It's our problem and we need to deal with it."

Toni coughs a few times. "Somehow."


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

Rajni sits down at the table before looking at Toni with concern, "I totally get that, but you're still sick...and if you push yourself, you could get worse and have to put off leaving anyways. I get that she has a lot going on, new shiny live brother and all....but cares about you too. If she knew what was going on, and knew how sick you are....you know she would want to help. She kind of lives for this stuff don't she?I'm sorry if I seem like I'm being selfish, but I don't want anything happening to you." Sighing she looks down at her hands, "And I know he was just being a stupid jerk, but it still really made me mad. What makes him think it's okay to talk to anyone like that?" As she speaks, Toni can tell how hard it is forf her to remain calm. Herf voice shakes as she thinks about things again.


Toni shrugs as she pulls the whistling kettle off the stove. "Some people just aren't raised right."


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

"Well...I wasn't raised by a good...or even stable parent, but I don't talk to people like that." She says, wrappingv her arms around herself.

"I hope that she won't. I think she will understand that you need to do what makes you happy." Hitome says comfortingly, rubbing her hand up and down Malkyoxa's back. "But no matter what happens it will work out for the best.....it already has." she continues smiling and giving the sorceress a kiss.


Female Drow Sorcerer 8; HP: 50/50; AC: 15, T: 14; FF: 11; Fort: +2, Ref: +5, Will: +6 (+2 vs Enchantments); Init: +7; Perception: +13

Malyoxa smiles slightly as they reach the tailor's shop.


"I don't know how to explain it...bad parents can still be proper, I guess," Toni says, making herself a cup of tea.


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

Rajni sighs as she shrugs her shoulders, "I don't know....I just really wanted to hit him, but he's just a jerk and really not worth the time or energy...or trouble I would get into." She states honestly.


"Right," Toni says. "Don't stress over it."


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

Rajni sits at the table and rests her chin in her handa, "I'm not stressing over the jerk, I just don't like him. People like that almost always get what's comin' to em' though, so whatever. How are you feeling?" She asks, looking up at Toni.


"A little better but I'm not going to be one hundred percent in a few hours..."


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

She shakes her head, "Of course not, I don't think anyone would expect you to be. They better not anyways...." She trails off for a moment as she looks Toni over a bit. She didn't look quite as bad as she did earlier, but Rajni could tell that she still wasn't feeling well.

Letting out a little sigh she isn't able to get certain things out of her mind, "What do you think Toni? I mean about this whole creepy guys thing that Toska seems to think poses a threat to our town? He says they are, and he says they belong to the same group that's been trying to kill him....but I just don't understand why. I just...I don't know...I just want to know if I'm gonna need to keep my bow handy for a while just in case they decide to attack the town...which...would be very very stupid on their part. I mean...it sounds like Toska and them just went over there to beat them up, and didn't really find out much of anything other than they want to know if you guys are a "threat to their power" whatever the hells that means." She rubs the back of her neck for a moment, "If they're really the bad guys, then wouldn't they know that you're a threat? That's why all this stuff just doesn't make any sense to me at all. It's getting really hard to tell the difference between good and bad anymore, and where exactly do you draw the line? For me...it's the safety of my family and the people I care about. That's the only reason I suggested Arista really. She just seems to have a way of talking to people....but this is up to you, and I know it isn't an easy decision to make...but I know you, and I know you'll do the right thing. You always do. You're a good leader, even if you don't feel like it sometimes. I'm sorry that all came spilling out of me, I've just had a lot on my mind lately and no where for it to go. I just want you to be safe and take care of yourself so you don't get worse." She says, while looking down at the table and nervously popping her knuckles.


Toni winces as Rajni pops her knuckles. She sighs after Rajni lets loose with all of her thoughts. "I don't know what to do about it and it's not becoming easier with everyone having different ideas about how to deal with it. Talking to them and figuring out any weaknesses would be ideal...or avoiding conflict altogether. But...there are a bunch of people who would rather see the Summoners dead than back in Blackcrown. We've just gotten everyone together, so maybe they don't know that we're ready. I'll sleep on it and figure it out in the morning."


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

Seeing Toni wince she tries to put her hands down as she looks down at the table, "I'm sorry Toni, I didn't mean to make your job more difficult by opening my big mouth. I'm sorry that things have gotten so complicated, and I'm sorry that there's not more I can do to help. I wish I could say something to make it better....but I don't even know what that would be. I know I can't help you with this, and that's kind of frustrating too in some weird way that I don't really even understand....but you were the one that was chosen for this...for them. No one else. They can have all the opinions in the world, but in the end...it's your decision." Rajni sighs, "I just want you to take care of yourself and not let all these people stress you out until you're so sick that you can't do what you need to do, for yourself or them. I know this must sound selfish of me, but you're the one I care about. Not Blackcrown, not the other summoners....just you. I just want you to be okay."


"I...I just get the feeling that we, the Summoners...Midwives too, aren't all on the same page," Toni says. "We're joined together because it's...I don't know, tradition or something like that. I don't think anyone is actually excited about going to Blackcrown or dealing with all this crap that seems to keep popping up. I don't really blame them either. Honestly, I don't want to do this. I'm not seeing what the point of it is. Kill a bunch of evil dragons and take back some wasteland? Yeah...not my idea of a fun time..."


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

Rajni nods her head, "Yeah...it doesn't sound very fun at all, and also like it could create other conflicts in some ways. Why is Blackcrown so important? Do you think it would help to maybe talk to Konstantyna about any of this? She seems pretty knowledgeable about all this summoner and midwife stuff. Maybe she would have some answers that would help you figure out what to do? Once you figure out what you need to do, maybe it would be a good idea to get together with the other summoners and their midwives and find out where they're at? Like what they're thinking and stuff? I don't know....too much input can make things confusing as well. Just remember that even though they're all part of this summoner stuff, that they're all their own person as well. They all have their own thoughts and feelings, their own baggage, and their own needs...and that's okay too." She sighs, "I don't know Toni, I guess you just need to figure out what's important and go from there. You don't have to have all the answers right away. I don't think anyone expects you to. They'd be damn silly if they did, no one can have all the answers."


Toni finishes her tea. "Like I said, I'll sleep on it."

She gets up. "Good night, Rajni."

Toni makes her way out of the kitchen and back to her bedroom.


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

Rajni nods as she stands up and picks up Toni's cup, "Good night Toni, get some rest and I hope you feel better soon." She says, before Toni leaves the kitchen.

Going to the sink, she starts washing the few dishes in there.

"Well here we are." Hitome says as they get to the door. "You thought about what you'll say?"


Female Drow Sorcerer 8; HP: 50/50; AC: 15, T: 14; FF: 11; Fort: +2, Ref: +5, Will: +6 (+2 vs Enchantments); Init: +7; Perception: +13

Malyoxa shakes her head. "I think I'll have a little time if Toni's passed out."

She gives Hitome a peck on the cheek. "You have a good night."


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

Rajni lets her mind wonder as she's cleaning up the dishes and kitchen.


Female Drow Sorcerer 8; HP: 50/50; AC: 15, T: 14; FF: 11; Fort: +2, Ref: +5, Will: +6 (+2 vs Enchantments); Init: +7; Perception: +13

After Hitome leaves, Malyoxa enters the house and walks into the kitchen as Rajni is cleaning. "Is Toni asleep?"


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

"I think she might be. She had a cup of tea out here while we were talking...and then she said she was going to go to bed. She still doesn't look too good." The worried tone in her voice is hard to miss.


Female Drow Sorcerer 8; HP: 50/50; AC: 15, T: 14; FF: 11; Fort: +2, Ref: +5, Will: +6 (+2 vs Enchantments); Init: +7; Perception: +13

Malyoxa simply nods, her mind too full of thoughts. "I'm sure she'll get better soon."

Malyoxa offers Rajni a supportive smile. "She's got a great friend looking after her."


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

Rajni yawns as she finishes cleaning up the kitchen, "I'm trying to. I better get to bed. Kama and Elena's wedding is tomorrow and I can't be all tired looking since I have to wear a dress and everything."

Giving her a little smile she says, "Have a good night Malyoxa, I'll see you later." Yawning again, Rajni heads upstairs.

Getting changed, she crawls into bed with Shamara and after a short while falls asleep.


Female Aasimar Paladin (Enlightened) 11| 154/96 HP | AC 21(25/24/28) T 17 FF 15 | Fort +14 (+17) Ref +10 (+13) Will +11 (+14) (+2 vs fire /evil) | Init +3 | Perception +8, Sense Motive +5| Personal Trial 2/3; LoH 13/day(5d6); Flickering step 3x/day

Hitome heads home, her heart and mind aflutter with Malyoxa's revelation and decision. It was sort of incredible how quickly things had unfolded, but she knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that the intoxicating, deeply thoughtful drow sorceress already had her heart, and was the person she wanted to spend her life with.

The aasimar smiles to herself as she unlocks the door and heads inside, making herself some tea and grabbing something light to eat before heading to bed.


Wheel of Maternity (Arista): 1d8 ⇒ 1; Nauseated.

The sound of birds chirping signals the morning's arrival in Valwick.


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

Rajni wakes up and stretches. Still feeling a little sleepy, she groans slightly. She shouldn't have stayed up so late, but she was really worried about Toni. With the warmth of the sun coming through the window as well as the sound of the birds, Rajni gets up out of her bed and goes to shut the window and pull the heavy curtain over it. Going back to her bed she sits down on it and rubs her eyes.


F Elf Toddler

Celine giggles as she puppy starts licking her face and jumping up and down on her bed. The warmth she felt coming through the window in her room, told her that it was warmer today. Getting up out of her bed, Celine pulls on some boots and grabs her jacket to put on just in case. Mommy would be upset if she got too cold.

Picking up Honey to keep her quiet, Celine leaves her room. She goes to the living room first, thinking that she would take her puppy out the front door to go potty, but Uncle Theon was still sleeping, and there were other people asleep on the floor by the big thing with wood in it that had fire sometimes. j

Shaking her head, she hushes her puppy as Honey begins to whine. They would have to go out the back door in the kitchen today. Turning around, Celine tries to be quiet as she makes her way into the kitchen to let Honey out to do her buisness.

Getting to the back door, Celine puts Honey down and gets a chair to put up next to the door so she can reach the handle. Standing on the chair, she opens the door and lets her puppy out before climbing down off the chair and going outside with her.

Arista barely notices the warmth of the sun, or the sound of the birds as an awful wave of nausea hits her and wakes her up, causing her to sit straight up in the bed so she doesn't throw up all over the place.

Jumping up out of the bed, she doesn't even bother putting on slippers before running for the bathroom.

Barely making it in time, she holds her hair back as she starts to empty the contents of her stomach into the toilet. After a few minutes, her legs begin to shake and she carefully lowers herself to the floor, while remaining over the bowl of the toilet.

As the sunlight filters in through the drapes, falling on the tiny glittering scales on her skin, Kama awakens. Her eyes falling on Elena's sleeping form, a brilliant smile coming to her lips.

Today was the day. Today was their wedding. They were already married in their hearts, and before Ammanurata, but today would be the formal declaration of their union, the joining of their lives. The thill, joy, and excitement were indescribable.


Wheel of Maternity: 1d8 ⇒ 1

Elena awakens with a violently ill feeling. She bolts upright in the bed and sees Kama awake. "I'm sorry..."

She hops off the bed and runs to the bathroom.


Alethiro slowly wakes up, noticing Arista was gone. He puts on his clothes and goes around the house to check on everyone. Seeing Theon, Pandi and Dau still sleeping in the living room, he goes to check on Celine. He sighs as he finds his daughter's bed empty. "She'll probably grow up to be a rogue or something..."

Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16

Going to the kitchen, thinking she probably was hungry and helping herself to some breakfast, he sees the open door. He pokes his head out of the door. "Celine?"


Juhi yawns and opens her eyes. "Good morning, Rajni."


F Elf Toddler

Celine is out in the back yard with the puppy. Hearing her daddy's voice she runs over to him. Pointing at the puppy she says, "Honey potty, everybody seepin. I take her outside." She looks around, "Where mommy?"


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

Rajni groans before yawning, "Good morning Juhi. Did you sleep well?"
