"Okay, Agni. No problem. We can do that."

"Sure, Agni. What you want?
"Sure do! We are in the boneyard and we are dead. So are you."
"Mictena. She's nice."
"Just playing and talking to that woman through the bird. What are you up to?"
"Agni! Don!"
Fortunately I am dead tired and asleep for this. Just wait till dad gets back.
As you get close to town, Kimi says "You should go to my house first, then Hollin and Mikra and Jurin and Savram. That's the fastest way. Savram can show you the way."
Hahahahahahahahahaha
The two girls return about a half an hour later. Jeva has been bathed, her hair combed, and she wears Kimi's jacket. It is a little large for her. The tattered dress has apparently been discarded. "Jeva is an orphan. She survived the fire. Who here can take her in? My mom and I don't have much but we could keep her fed. Jurin, would your dad treat her good? I'm not so sure."
Kimi responds "I sure can. Let's get you fixed up. Show me where the water is." She gets the soap and hairbrush from Cirthana. The two girls run off hand in hand towards Jeva's water source. "We'll be right back!"
Kimi walks up to the little girl. "Hi. I'm Kimi. You look like you have been out here a while."
The children and the kobold slaves take to the task of building the campfire. They gather the wood and tender and kindling. Savram makes a big deal of the orison he is about to cast and finally a spark ignites the tender. They all cheer.
Kimi just stares at Zevon while he picks his nose. When he begins to eat the fruits of his labor she quickly looks away.
"We will be saving Hollin with you, Mr. Dwarf. We are no strangers to the warrens below. We got loose one time without your help. And we are not afraid of any kobold." She pats the dagger she wears on her waist.
" Lady Cirthana, we are ready to save Jurin. What is our plan? I have pretty good stealth and I have a dagger."
"Lady Cirthana, it is 22 against 4."
Kimi whispers to Edgrin "Are they gonna die, Edgrin?"
"Hahaha...4 against 22. Hahahaha."
"That one is just a little too big for me. I'm pretty good with a short sword, though. Thank you, Prince Linnorm. This blade should protect us." She takes the dagger.
"Yes, sir. There are five of us. Two here. Savram went north. The forge spurned has one and another was taken back down below. Sure hope you can help us out. You are a dwarf! I never saw a real life dwarf. Yeah they are alive. For now at least. What is he?" Pointing at Reinar.
Kimi walks over to Reinar and hits his armor with her chair leg. "Nice blade work, big one. I'm Kimi. Are you human?" To the group "I need a sword. Anybody got an extra one?" She starts to search the kobold warriors. Kimi is a black-haired young half-elf girl with fierce green eyes wearing a leather hunting vest, slacks, and high hard boots, looking like a miniaturized adventurer. Her bravery flows from her need to protect Mikra, who she treats as her kid brother although he is older than her. |
