"Haruf?" Kale asked as she wrapped her arm around his. "We don't have to settle here. We can settle anywhere." She told him.
"A whole month here... well that isn't what I expected to be honest." Kale told the group as they left the Baroness. "A month to kill... What do you think it best way to pass the time?" Kale didn't worry about coin Haruf had borrowed. As she saw it, it was their coin. Though when he asked about the house Kale smiled brightly. "Do you want to settle here? Really?"
Kale twisted the white strand that she had left down, a smirk on her face. "Demon possession. It was an interesting wake up." She stated proudly. "Sadly not. We where hoping to find someone to deal with the chair. Though now that we know there is no one who can, we will return and ensure there is a note for those who will be taking inventory so that they will not be harmed... unless they are fools. Then I do not take responsibility for that." Kale commented. "There where birds but it seemed an outsider made a lunch of them." She informed her. "We took care of the little... annoyance but the birds are dead."
Have fun!
Kale returned Haruf's smile with a small one of her own before turn her attention back to Lady Origena. "We went through a lot together. Fought a possessed dragon, and if it wasn't for his help it would have been much much worse." Kale informed her as she crossed her legs. "Though I will say that Hunclay did a lot to protect his home, we where about to take care of everything save one... There is a chair that send electricity through anyone who sits in it. We can't seem to turn it off." She explained.
"Send for me if you ever need anything Calli. I'll coming running." She told her friend before she looked to Haruf and smiled before back to the woman before her. "We both will." ------------------------------------------ While Kale wanted to bolt after her, yet another friend was lost, friend she knew it would be a lost cause. She had changed out of her normal armor and into a set of fair looking clothes. A nice green tunic of ulfen design with a red shaw, held onto her shoulders with a silver winter wolf pen. Though she did not wear a skirt, no. Kale never wore a dress or skirt. She found them rather annoying. Not she just had a a pair of black pants on with her normal boots. "Some bad issue with going through our friend's belonging. Pick a different life after we finished." She explained. "Though there is something we need to speak of. There is a painting within the manor that I wish to keep. Tis a painting of us. The group you first met and Hunclay in... Happier times. Since it hold personal value to those here and has our likeness I don't think it would go for much in an auction." Kale stated.
Kale sighed as she looked to Haruf. "Too bad. You would have been asking her how she did it all day." She smirked. While out and about town Kale mostly listened as people turned them away. Quiet as she often was. It wasn't till the young lad stepped foreword and said. "Good news, we've all but one trap taken care of. Bad news, we can't figure the thing out nor can find anyone willing to give it a go."
Kale raised an eyebrow to Vretiel. "Short compared to whom?" She asked with a slight glare. "We take the dust, we need it for the wall of light." She stated simply as she took the pouches. "Lets get back to that wall hmm?"
It was wonderful gaming with you Calli! I hope we get the chance to game together again some time!
"Gods Hunclay... why would you do this alone you foolish old man." Kale said with a long sigh. "Funny isn't it, when we first met him he wouldn't even open the door for us when a raging demon possessed dragon was after us." She commented as she remembered their first meeting.
I understand Calli, and I'm so sorry for your loss. I wish I could do more to help.
Kale planted the halberd, blade down, into the ground as she leaned against the polearm. "Well... Lets not do that again okay?" She asked with a slight smirk.
"Uha... I'm going to need a bath after this." Kale said before hacking away at the creature once more.
Kale only grinned, some what evilly, as she stated "It is very dangerous. Come down here and I'll show you just how dangerous it is!" With that she focused on the monster before her, bringing the halberd back around and aimed to show the little monster just how dangerous she could be.
"Oh great..." Kale hissed annoyed as she heard the voice and brought her weapon back around for another pass at the creature before her.
"Slashing, right." Kale said with a small smirk as she pulled out the halberd they had found. "Lets do this!" With that she charged into the battle, swinging the halberd with a rather fair amount of skill.
"We sure about moving foreword?" Kale asked as she looked to the group. "Iskra stated she has no more spells and if we go in there unprepared... well I don't want to think about what could happen." She stated.
"Calli is correct, wolves are nothing to be worried about!" Kale said with a laugh as she brought her weapon back around.
Kale took a step to the side swinging her weapon as she did so. "It's not werewolves, just a dire wolf and his pets." She stated as she brought her weapon down.
Kale waved the birds from the corpses as she moved up to look them over. "Anyone know what happened to these poor fools?" She asked as she looked the group over. "Alex? You're a healer by trade, any guesses?" She questioned as she looked the half-elf over.
"Haruf love, do please look at the chair." Kale requested of her loved before she walked over to Vretiel and Iskra and looked the woman over. "Most people get out of the chair when the first shock hits. Please take a note of that." She said with a friendly smirk.
When the group turned to leave Kale leaned over and kissed Haruf. "Brilliant idea." She told him with a wink and a smile before she followed after the group. "Right, I forgot we fought that... thing in here. Why Hunclay had so many, oddities in the place is rather annoying." She sighed.
"So you're the one who worked for Hunclay. We're not here to steal anything. Most of us here are or where, friends of Hunclay. He's passed... We came to log everything and ensure the manor was clear of danger so that his next of kin could sell everything off." Kale explained as she moved foreword. "We're not going to hurt you. We can get you out of here safely even."
Kale raised and eyebrow before letting out a sigh and leaning over to Haruf. "Does he lie thought everything?" She asked. "Wouldn't just telling them we're friends of Hunclay be enough?" She added.
"Long enough that this stove should not have been used... Wait didn't they say that those who tended to Hunclay's manor while he was away missing? Could they be here still?" Kale asked as she looked over the stove.
"Once again! Why does everything wish to attack us?" Kale asked with a bit of rage as she settled her weapon on her shoulder. "I've half the mind to take everything worth coin out and hand it over then burn this place to the ground..." She muttered annoyed.
"Anyone able to read that word on the back wall?" Kale asked as she moved into flanking with Haruf.
Kale slung her Bec de Corbin off her shoulder and took a defensive stance. "And just like that we have ourselves in another bind!" She called. "Why can nothing here be reasonable... well save that last outside... she was nice." She muttered under her breath. She readied herself for a fight, keeping herself between the enemy and her friends.
Ready attack if needed:
Kale took a deep breath before taking a step into the room, the feeling of it made her cold and a pit settle into her stomach. She feels a shiver try to move up her spine but she forces it to stop. "I am not Hunclay." Kale started. "I am called Kale, may I know your name?" She asked
"First tell me if you see anything with that magic sight of yours, then I'll go in and take a look around." Kale told them with a nod before she turned her attention back to the room.
"Why do we keep finding all this? What ever happened to keeping your home life and work separate?" Kale groaned as they looked inside. "Going into some ones house should not be this dangerous!" She stated as she crossed her arms.
"What was that?" Kale called as she shook her head. "Love? what did you do?" She asked as her head throbbed as she rested a hand upon his shoulder. "And please tell me that is the last one we'll be triggering!"
"You know, this was clever." Kale said as she looked around the room. "Using magic to keep the food. Not bad... Not bad at all." She smirked before she looked over to her lover who was working on the door. "You sure there aren't any traps this time?" She joked as she moved next to him.
"Oh I apologize, we thought Hunclay had just been enchanting weapons on the side for extra coin." Kale, who had been working to get the scimitar off her belt, stated before finally looked up to Maff at the same time she gazed down to her. "Aeteperax?" She asked as she handed the shadow woman her weapon back. "What demands was this Aeteperax making?" She questioned as she shifted slightly.
"Blind the eyes..." Kale muttered, she looked to Calli giving her a nod, before she closed her eyes and walked into the light.
"I am Kale Amora." The warrior said as she offered a nod. "If I may ask, what are you? The studies of the planes where never something I took to." Kale told her as she looked the shadow woman over. "My group and I have been used by a creature trapped here already, I am sure you can understand my hesitation. It almost cost my friend's their lives." She explained. "Would you truly leave if we freed you?" She asked.
"Is it really wise to call out?" Kale asked as she shifted her stance. "I mean everything we've met in here, besides the birds, has tried to kill us." She reminded the cleric.
"Could we walk with out backs to it?" Kale asked as she crossed her arms. "Keep our cloak hoods up and our faces turned away... would that even work?"
"Hunclay... what had you gotten into?" Kale muttered with a sigh as she looked over to the group. "Lets take the swords for now." Kale told the group as she gathered them up and took the time to place one on her belt. "Who wants the other?" She asked as she looked at the group, holding it out.
Happy Holidays!
"Love, she means the spell itself is permanent." Kale explained as she stepped in to look and the weapons and armor in the room. "Why would Hunclay have these? Was he enchanting to earn more money?" She wondered.
I'm totally okay with a break. It's been a stressful day...
Kale held up her had as to keep the light from her eyes. "Haruf? You alright?" She called over to her lover as she tried to look through the light to see him. "Okay new rule. No one goes into a room until I do. Deal?" She asked the group as she looked from one to the other for their approval.
Kale stepped into the room, a look of anger on her face. "Oh you've got to be kidding me..." She muttered, anger coloring her voice. She slowly moved around the room keeping her eyes and ear open. "That little bastard ripped everything apart... even the journal..." She sighed as she picked up what was left. "I wonder if it is still around.... or if it met something else in the manor that might have killed it." Kale spoke aloud as she moved through the room.
"Can either of you find the little thing?" Kale asked as she looked back to Iskra and Vretiel. "Because there is no way we can let that thing out of this manor."
"They already know he was summoning outsiders." The fighter whispered back to her love. "Did we really get that much for them?" Kale muttered to herself as she heard the price. "I do have some coin love, about 850 gold. But that's about it." She explained.
"Yeah sorry... I was more focused on the demon." Kale said with a sigh as she rubbed the back of her neck. "Yes. we need to move out and gather what things we need. Shall we meet tomorrow morning at Hunclay's manor or in the inn?" She asked.
"To be fair Hunclay was studying all types of outsiders. He just seemed to have a... Zebub you said? In the circle at the time. I kept his book on outsiders but it seemed that he didn't get to question the demon he summoned." She told the two with a shrug. "And I would so like to point out, a tower fell upon him... because of the kobolds." "Now, we need to get silver weapons and those fire bomb things. Would you all be ready to go once we gather these things or do we need to wait for a day?" Kale asked their new found mages respectfully.
"We where cleaning out an old friend's manor. He was doing something with outsiders, and before he could return the demon to its plane he passed on. We tried to return it but we only ended up releasing it." Kale told them as she let out an annoyed sigh. "It turned on us within seconds and we had to withdraw from the manor." She explained while she crossed her arms.
Kale placed a hand on Haruf's shoulder when she noticed his body tense. "Well met." Kale told them with a nod as she stepped foreword. "I am Kale Amora, I guess you could call me the heavy hitter of this group. So you two are willing to take on a demon with us? We need a little magical might on our side and if you're willing we'd welcome you." Kale told them honestly as she gave them a respectful nod.
"Oh, Madam Bassy, there doesn't happen to be another wizard around these parts is there? Or perhaps a Sorcerer?" Kale asked as she leaned foreword a bit. "Someone who could go down with us?"
