Once back in town, Fluer surfaces again and helps Andrea with business.

Come the new morning Shadow rises, washes and dresses... Fluer enters the common room and sits quietly out of the way. Watching the people talk, carouse and interact with one another.
Fluer luaghs lightly at Truk's words and sidles up to the larger Half-Orc.
The actual 'To Hit' and 'Damage' rolls. If Fluer/Shadow had been serious...:
She smiles sweetly up at Truk as her blades disappear. "Inquisitor of Calistra..." (^_^) *Points to self*
Fluer/Shadow accepts Qrsino'a offer graciously, offering him a smile as complement in return.
Fluer/Shadow moves about the place quietly as usual. Keeping to herself and simply watching the events unfold.
Fluer smiles shyly. "So...now to think of ways to go about being unseen by the magic people can do..." She suggests. "Any one have a spell perhaps of 'Anti-magic'..?"
Fluer sits down quietly besides Faelyn. "Making people 'disappear' is not the hardest part. Leaving no traces so that those who would seek out the perpetrators is." Says the quiet Elven lass. Probably the longest conversation she has had to date.
*Raises eyebrow* Are you kind of questioning the normal sounding performance figures...or what? (^_~)
Fluer remains quietly towards the rear of the group. Watching, listening...waiting...
Fluer suppresses a sigh...now knowing that Rance knows the group is after something he owns, hence just increasing it's possible sale value.
Fluer lingers a little looking back over the lines of damaged statuary.
Fluer arches an eyebrow. "Oh? Pray tell where would they be placed, so as not to interfere with the spell combat and yet be able to do their duties?" She asks, sounding puzzled by Rance's statement.
DM baldwin the merciful: So..is the champion being given succor/Kin ties to a noble-family whom our current host, Master Rance Lucca secretly might hate? If so...there's a place to apply some leverage. (^_~)
Fluer takes very careful note of said statues....
Fluer nods as acknowledgment to Rance answering her question. "He has patronage, then?" She asks, though politely awaiting her turn in the conversation, trying to obliquity gather some more information.
Fluer arches an eyebrow, "Where might the champion be spending hs time?" She asks.
**Posted a nice description*** Fluer demurely moves over and sits upon the couch, going about arraigning her skirts as she looks at the room from under lowered eyes. DM baldwin the merciful:
Of the portrait, which of the children might be our host? If not a family picture of our host, who might they be?
The names or styles of books which might be divulged from examining their exposed spines?
Also, are there roof lights (Ceiling windows) Any windows or vents? Might the floor near the book-case be slightly scuffed, indicating it moves? How is the carpet arrayed upon the floor? Might it conceal something? Any slight lumps, bumps or furrows? Fluer demurely declines the offer of said hard liquor.
Fluer, after taking off her hat and sweeping damp locks from her forehead, does her best to look as plainly decorative as possible...
Fluer will slip in with Andrea and Faelyn...
Fluer/Shadow, from beneath her floppy hat, watches the watchers who might be watching the other watchers whom are all now probably watching the approaching group she is in.
Fluer quickly buys the widest, most over sized hat she can to protect herself from the worst of the rain.
Fluer nods in agreement with Andrea. She too has risen slightly early and quietly communed with her goddess.
Fluer perches on a bench and listens. Not being very 'magical' she really doesn't have much more to add.
To emerge after a short while as her alter ego. (^_^)
Fluer laughs. "Show me this place where I can change." She grins, "And, perhaps later? We can...share...more culture?" She says quietly with a mischievous grin.
Fluer looks to Andrea her face calm....almost seeming passionless now, Elven:
"We are of the same faith. 'Sunny' was a follower, though as all things with Elanesadrielle, she was a worshiper in her own way. You channel the healing and teachings of the faith." And a subtly darker aspect comes over the dancing Elf's features, "I channel darker aspects." Fluer extends a hand to Andreas, "Come, let's show those who would wish us harm the dark side." >:)
Fluer nods, though her expression now tends to remain more neutral than anything else.
Fluer easily joins in the devotionals with Andrea. (^_^) She too joins Andrea with the others outside shortly. "Um...for what might be about to come? I think I need to change into something...more...?" Fluer indicates the silks she's wearing, the simple sandals on her feet.
Fluer gives the man who's spoken a flat, hard look. "Then what I'll pay for won't 'officially' happen then, will it?" She arches an eyebrow, "That...wont be a problem, will it." She says. At Andrea's words Fluer's features soften. "Thank you." She looks at Andrea, "May I ask...?" She inquires to Andrea.
Fluer simply nods at Andrea's words, seeming calm and composed. At being shown the ravaged corpse, Fluer just seems to look neutrally at it. "I can pay to have...this...preserved..." She whispers.
Fluer's features remain calm and neutral. "You all knew Sunny. So did I." She replies to the Dwarf simply. "Sunny is.." And her voice creaks into silence... she looks down then after a moment she looks to Andrea, blinking. "We..should go..."
Fluer nods at Andrea's words, picking up her back-pack and moving to stand besides the woman, though she remains quiet and introspective.
Fluer nods at Andrea's words. "When will you be going? Where will you be meeting up?" She finishes her ale and stands gracefully.
Fluer nods, "You have that right. How do you propose to talk to them...?" Fluer asks, her voice remaining calm.
"Who did this...?" Fluer asks softly.
At the new woman's words Fluer goes absolutely still.......
(¬_¬)
Fluer looks at Lucrezia and there is finally a shifting in her features. A subtle darkening of them "Yes indeed I have. You've maligned me more than once and it's starting to wear my nature thin." Fluer looks to the woman who's come to the Half-Elf's side. "In-case she gets it wrong, or has just plain forgotten, my name is close to 'Fluer' and I'm seeking another Elf who's name would be close to 'Sunny'. She's blond, well all over tanned." And something about describing said 'Sunny' still manages to bring a wistful smile to Fluer's face, "And...well...most people seem to find said translation fitting." Fluer gently,slowly moves her chair back a little, though she retains her ale and takes a sip. "I do believe Tracy was the person who introduced me to the notion that Sunny was here, which..." She looks at Lucrezia again, "You know...I think becoming forgetful is catching. What did you say your name was?" She arches an elegant eyebrow at the Half-Elf. (^_~)
Fluer tilts her head, "So...that's a 'yes', then?"
Fluer frowns, "Well..if you don't mind me following you around for a while until I can get back together with Sunny then?" She asks.
Fluer tilts her head. "So...you are saying she did know yourself and others here abouts then?" She pointedly asks Lucrezia. Then nods and smiles, "We are getting some where. So...who is it that you think might have taken her and perhaps where?" (^_^)
Fluer smiles, though Lucrezia can see it does not reach the Elf's eyes. "Only a playful suggestion, nothing more." Fluer sips again at her ale, "Tell me then, of what you know." She asks.
Passing the DC 21 Check:
Fluer's eyes grow cold.....the larger than Human orbits becoming darker, with more an icy glitter in their depths. Her body stills slightly. Signs that she is very much NOT amused by the implication in Lucrezia's words. Fluer also leans back, just a little. Still holding her mug in both hands she takes another sip then setting the large cup down, again just the quick point of tongue wiping lips clean. She does smile now speaking softer, "Um, I'm sorry. Your speech is just a bit simple there. Did you just say you've...lost...some one you hold dear? If so, you should really work on that problem you've developed." Fluer gives a mischievous wink, relaxing and leaning forwards again. "Perhaps I can give you some...private...lessons?" Fluer glances about, seeming looking for some one before quickly turning back to Lucrezia. "I'm sure Tracy mentioned what a good and most cunning linguist I am?" And again Fluer licks some of the taste of the mead from her lips (^_~)
Fluer arches an eyebrow at the half-Elf's forward question, even if it is in accented speech. Her eyes glance to the retreating Tracy and back before she takes the mug and sips, drawing out the silence and obviously making Lucrezia wait until Fluer is good and ready to answer. "As I've mentioned in...passing...to Tracy, I'm an Elf and I'm looking for an Elf." She licks the remains of the ale from her lips with a quick, deft tongue, "I think she was using a Human term. What you've mentioned sounds like a rude interpretation of her name...." Fluer sips again and awaits either Lucrezia's reply or remark.
Fluer nods at the Half-Elf's acquisition of her company/companion, giving a friendly smile to the other woman. DM baldwin the merciful:
As Fluer gets up and wanders towards the 'Bath-room' she'll try and listen in on what the Half-Elf is saying.
Though Fluer stands and begins to make her way to the 'jacks'...
Fluer will ask Tracy who the Half-Elf is.
DM baldwin the merciful: Then Fluer will try and Tracy to show her this room as soon as possible, so as to shadow (Heh, I made a funny) the pair as they move up stairs. Of course, once shown the room Fluer will need an excuse to 'stick around'' plus work on an 'alibi' if/when Shadow slips out later.
"So...." Fluer grins and slides her arms around Tracy's waist. "Want to show me how good the room's hospitality is?" (^_^)
Again, trying to discern where Andrea and the others have gone too...
FLuer wanders over to Tracy, "So...what are the prices for actually, y'know, renting a room to stay in?" (^_^) She asks, while keeping as much of an eye upon the antics of the other two woman.
DM baldwin the merciful:
I know it's probably a tad much, but can Fluer/Shadow get an idea of which room (Or general area) they end up in? Maybe by listening for foot falls on the floor/roof above Fluers'/Shadow's head? So maybe Shadow can have a peek in when every one settles down?
Fluer does not 'notice' them outright, but moves to take a place at the tables and again 'bask in the ambiance' of the establishment. :P
