Summary

Debris from the clash of two nights earlier washes up on the Black Sands, along with a glass bottle landing at Bernadette's feet. Appearing to be from Rian, a note inside says he's sorry and had to stay, believing that Tyrrax will release him since he needs him to live. However, he sends a warning that Tyrrax is more determined than ever and has set out for Glaoveln to meet the Council of Crows and rally others now that he's lost Kharusa. He also says to send his wife south to his mother's.

Amos meets others at the Sleeping Dragon Pub to catch up on those details. Musing that Tyrrax pulling back has bought everyone time, he says he expects Ivorel to return by month's end and everyone will need to be ready to act immediately when he does. People observe that Amos has a new habit of scratching himself frequently, though he just says a long bath will do him good. Lylia also shares the contents of the letter Rian passed to Dendum, saying that Tyrrax seeks to end Lalk Morgil, unite krolvin under him as a historical legend, take back the Star of Khar'ta, and defeat the "blood heretic." Rian also says to tell his wife he loves her and should have listened.

Meanwhile, Amos asks where Kharusa is. Kiyna says all anyone needs know is that she's safe and if she wishes to come forward, it'll be of her own will, and she (Kharusa) will remain safe until she (Kiyna) can escort her home or wherever she wishes to return. Amos says she might hold valuable information and doesn't wish for her to become a pawn and asks Marshal Stormyrain if her whereabouts are truly unknown. She says it's new information to her and he says he wonders who's in charge.

Vaemyr says Kiyna's his ward and he trusts that she would have taken Kharusa to a secure location and knows several he'd used in the past. Kiyna says she'll pass along helpful questions, but won't accept any suggestion that Kharusa owes anyone anything. Amos says he doesn't need to know where she is, but pass along his request that he would wish to meet with her if she chooses. She says she'll do that.

Salvage

[Town Square Central]

This is the heart of the main square of Wehnimer's Landing. The impromptu shops of the bazaar are clustered around this central gathering place, where townsfolk, travellers, and adventurers meet to talk, conspire or raise expeditions to the far-flung reaches of Elanith. At the north end, an old well, with moss-covered stones and a craggy roof, is shaded from the moonlight by a strong, robust tree. The oak is tall and straight, and it is apparent that the roots run deep. You also see the Kellafar disk, the Opalina disk, the Bunny disk, the Grossum disk, the Kisun disk, the palm frond-shaped Leafiara disk, a shaggy silver and white puppy with mismatched blue and brown eyes, the faenor Chandrellia disk inlaid with intersecting bands of jet, the Asben disk, the Pukk disk, the Braugi disk, the bloodstained Xorus disk with scuffed and dented sides, the Nijacka disk, a pale-faced coppery barn owl that is flying around, the Grius disk, some manna bread, a small apple, an ayanad crystal, a round silver-banded barrel, an herbal remedy donation bin and some wide stone benches with some stuff on it.

Also here: Lord Kellafar, Chronicler Opalina, Bunny, Grossum, Kisun, Bernadette, Town Councilor Pukk, Town Councilor Chandrellia, Lord Braugi, Lord Asben, Town Councilor Leafiara, Xorus, Imperatrix Lylia, Delyorik, Nijacka, Stormyrain, Kayse, Vaemyr, Bodom, Pals, Geremiah, Kiyna, Grius who is sitting, Markx, Andromalius who is sitting

Some townspeople wander by, laughing and enjoying several drinks from their mugs. "..and he said he saw some things floating up on the sands, but I haven't the stomach for it tonight..." They wander off.

Speaking to Leafiara, Vaemyr asks, "I miss anything in the past couple minutes?"

Vaemyr says, "Sands."

[travel]

Speaking to Leafiara, Pukk says, "All these gossipers."

Braugi squeakily asks, "You takin me to my socks?"

[The Black Sands]

Waves roll up onto the dull black beach, the seafoam tracing lacy patterns against the dark background. Flies buzz among the rotting seaweed, rising up in swarms as you pass. To the northwest, a pillar of rock rises out of the water. You also see some wooden debris and a tall wooden archery tower.

Also here: Stormyrain, Kayse

Bernadette, Pukk, Chandrellia, Braugi and Asben followed.

Leafiara says, "Hmm..."

[The Black Sands]

A narrow strip of black sand winds between the pulsing sea and the huddled rocks. You look out at the dark waters of the bay, set against the grey sky. With the black sands beneath your feet and the frozen black lava behind you, you feel as though all the color has been blotted out of the world. You also see the Braugi disk, the palm frond-shaped Leafiara disk, the faenor Chandrellia disk inlaid with intersecting bands of jet, the Asben disk, the Pukk disk, some wooden debris, the Vaemyr disk, the waters of Darkstone Bay and a tall wooden archery tower.

Also here: Vaemyr, Kiyna

Bernadette, Pukk, Chandrellia, Braugi and Asben followed.

Braugi squeakily asks, "Where we goin'?"

Vaemyr carefully inspects his rotted krolvin flesh.

Bernadette softly says, "We is goin fer a walk."

Kiyna says, "Found some stuff here."

Speaking to Braugi, Pukk says, "Going to try to find somebody to talk to about your socks."

The waves of Darkstone Bay roll in, and some wooden debris washes up onto the shore.

The waves of Darkstone Bay roll in, and some wooden debris washes up onto the shore.

[imagine another 102 instances of that throughout the night and another dozen or so instances of rotting krolvin flesh washing up]

Braugi squeakily says, "They gave me a few pairs."

Leafiara says, "Just seems like random junk..."

Bernadette softly asks, "Ship debis?"

Braugi squeakily says, "They aren't the same though."

Vaemyr says, "From the battle the other night."

Braugi squeakily says, "Mine had that right smell."

Pukk exclaims, "I'm rich!"

Braugi squeakily says, "They smelt like an old man who hasn't washed his jacket in 10 years."

Vaemyr says, "Might as well pick up the coins."

Gorvalt says, "My ears are burning."

[General] Leafiara thinks, "Remnants of battle seem to have washed up on the sands."

Earthdiver asks, "We looking for Amos?"

[General] Leafiara thinks, "Or are still washing up at the moment, I suppose I should say."

Leafiara says, "Maybe some people are."

Braugi squeakily says, "We aren't finding them."

Bernadette softly says, "Mebbe wots left."

Speaking to Leafiara, Chandrellia says, "I dont see any blood on the debris tho."

[General] Directed to Leafiara, Stormyrain thinks, "You should make sure to break the debris up and see if there's anything of note."

Speaking to Chandrellia, Leafiara says, "There is some rotting flesh, though."

Earthdiver picks up a piece of rotted krolvin flesh.

A mild storm churns along Darkstone Bay, as wooden debris and other floating bits continue to make their way towards the Black Sands.

Speaking to Leafiara, Pukk says, "You always find the nicest things."

Speaking to Leafiara, Chandrellia says, "Was."

[General] Directed to Stormyrain, Leafiara thinks, "We have been. Nothing of note so far... so far."

Pukk says, "Free coins."

Leafiara says, "Best case scenario, I suppose we find some notes of Rian's that have survived the water..."

Speaking to Leafiara, Chandrellia says, "I would like to know if this flesh is Tyrrax's or not."

[General] Peggyanne thinks, "I just sank a man o war pretty near there... forgive the krolvin bodies if any float ashore."

Braugi squeakily says, "We aren't findin' my socks."

Speaking to Leafiara, Vaemyr says, "Or you know some gold rings."

Bernadette softly asks, "Ye find annatin?"

Speaking to Chandrellia, Leafiara says, "I mean, there's quite a lot of flesh..."

As Chandrellia rips apart her rotted krolvin flesh, something falls to the ground. Glancing around, she notices a bloodstained wagon figurine and picks it up off the ground.

Braugi squeakily says, "This is a big team for socks also."

Speaking to Braugi, Kisun says, "Let it go bud."

Pukk says, "I say we give the flesh to sir AmIRight and he will tell us who it is."

Speaking curiously to Chandrellia, Leafiara says, "Hmm, what's that there? That looks like the most possibly interesting thing so far."

Speaking squeakily to Kisun, Braugi asks, "What do you think this search and destroy mission is for?"

Chandrellia carefully inspects her wagon figurine.

Speaking to Braugi, Kisun says, "More important things."

Chandrellia rubs a bloodstained wagon figurine in her hand.

Speaking squeakily to Kisun, Braugi says, "My socks."

Speaking to Goldstr, Pukk says, "Lucky."

Speaking to Leafiara, Chandrellia says, "Not sure."

Vaemyr says, "Be on the lookout for those bracers, notes, anything that might be useful."

Speaking to Vaemyr, Leafiara asks, "Bracers?"

Earthdiver says, "The shackles, too."

Bernadette softly asks, "Ye find yer sox yet?"

Speaking to Leafiara, Vaemyr says, "Shackles."

Speaking to Leafiara, Chandrellia says, "I think it was in the pocket on that piece of flesh I picked up."

Leafiara says, "Shackles and bracers are definitely not the same thing."

Leafiara says, "But sure."

Bernadette softly says, "Werent Amos lookin fer shackles."

[General] Stormyrain asks, "Anything of note anywhere yet?"

Earthdiver says, "He got them."

Speaking to Bernadette, Leafiara says, "He got them. The question is whether he was able to continue holding onto them in the battle."

Bernadette softly says, "Ahh."

Leafiara says, "I assume he did."

Kisun says, "I believe he did as well."

As Setch picks through his wooden debris, it falls apart, causing something to fall to the ground. Glancing around, he notices a shredded silver embossed parchment and picks it up off the ground.

[General] Leafiara thinks, "Nothing particular."

Setch gazes thoughtfully at his silver embossed parchment.

Speaking to Setch, Leafiara says, "Ooh, that looks fancy."

Speaking to Leafiara, Kiyna says, "What a battle that was. I only caught bits and pieces of it, but..."

Speaking to Setch, Vaemyr asks, "What's that say?"

[General] Chandrellia thinks, "Not yet just seems to be odds and ends that were left in Krolvins pockets."

Speaking to Setch, Leafiara asks, "Is it just a scroll or something more?"

Bernadette softly says, "He was inna a prety big fite, wt is he dropped em."

Pukk exclaims, "I'm rich!"

[General] Aurien thinks, "Anything of note? A couple of wild lookin elven lasses on me boat."

Setch says, "Powersink scroll."

Leafiara says, "Ah."

[General] Leafiara thinks, "Found a promising looking parchment, but it turned out to just be a typical scroll."

[General] Leafiara thinks, "Nothing special yet."

Bernadette softly says, "Cudda fell from his pockets."

[General] Opalina asks, "Did anyone ever read the note in dendums pocket?"

Kisun says, "No debris floatin in the waters. It's just all washed up here I guess."

Speaking squeakily in Halfling to Kiyna, Braugi says something you don't understand.

[General] Leafiara thinks, "He shared it with Lylia and me."

[General] Leafiara thinks, "Possibly others."

Speaking squeakily in Halfling to Kiyna, Braugi says something you don't understand.

Chandrellia says, "This is intersting."

Chandrellia asks, "This piece of flesh has been crafted out of, glass?"

Goldstr says, "Have fun folks."

[General] Leafiara thinks, "It was Rian relaying that Tyrrax is trying to unite krolvin under him as a legend, taking back the Star of Khar'ta and defeating the 'blood heretic.' And also saying to watch over his wife and tell her he loves her and he should have listened."

Kisun asks, "Whoever finds Amos, do you get to keep him?"

Pukk exclaims, "I got a crown!"

[General] Lylia thinks, "Yes. The gist of it is that he believes Tyrrax seeks to unify the krolvin behind him and wishes to become a legendary leader of them rather than destroying the 'blue suffering.' Also, he wished he had listened to his wife."

Pukk says, "Pretty soon I'm going to get the shackles, I just know it."

Speaking squeakily in Halfling to Kiyna, Braugi says something you don't understand.


Chandrellia recites:

"Just be wary what you pick up, we dont know if there is anything dangerous that could poke or poison us in flesh of the krolvins"

Speaking to Chandrellia, Kisun says, "That's why you're here.."

As Vaemyr picks through his wooden debris, it falls apart, causing something to fall to the ground. Glancing around, he notices a bent smooth stone and picks it up off the ground.

Speaking to Kisun, Chandrellia says, "Perhaps."

Kisun says, "Ooh."

[General] Peggyanne asks, "Isnt that what Leafiara just said?"

Earthdiver says, "Nice rock."

Earthdiver says, "Oo."

Vaemyr says, "How do you bend a stone..."

Bernadette softly asks, "'anna papers?"

Leafiara says, "Only papers so far have been scrolls..."

Earthdiver says, "A whole ship is going to wash up at this rate."

[General] Lylia thinks, "I may have missed it in the fracas I have had with the kappas."

Vaemyr says, "Whole ship washing up now..."

Kisun exclaims, "Dibs!"

[General] Peggyanne thinks, "Yeah those turtle men are tricky."

Kisun says, "If it's a ship, that is."

Kiyna says, "I mean, in fairness, we did a LOT of damage to their fleet..."

Asben says, "Thems my coins."

Leafiara picks up a bent smooth stone.

Asben holds his palm out toward Leafiara, looking for a handout.

>collect examine my stone

The smooth stone does not appear to be a collectible.

Leafiara offers Asben a bent smooth stone.

Speaking to Asben, Chandrellia exclaims, "Yoinked!"

Speaking to Leafiara, Vaemyr says, "Yeah I saw that."

Setch asks, "Mist?"

Asben accepts Leafiara's smooth stone.

(OOC) Earthdiver's player whispers to the group, "Is this the new Ascension area?"

Vaemyr asks, "Anyone see anything interesting, any notes or writings?"

[General] Leafiara curiously asks, "Has anything interesting been discovered at other parts of the sands?"

Bernadette softly says, "No notes yet."

[General] Stormyrain thinks, "Not here."

Kisun says, "Nothin but gems 'n coins."

Bernadette softly says, "Hmm."

[General] Ycelacie curiously asks, "Is there a reason to believe the sands is where this will be?"

[General] Lylia thinks, "Only the poor leavings of a ruined fleet of krolvin ships."

Vaemyr says, "Seems mainly watching up here."


Message in a Bottle

Bobbing gently on the surface of Darkstone Bay, a narrow glass bottle floats back and forth, washing up on the shore near Bernadette's feet.

Earthdiver says, "Aha."

Earthdiver picks up a narrow glass bottle.

Earthdiver offers Bernadette a narrow glass bottle.

[General] Ycelacie quickly asks, "Besides that it could be?"

Speaking to Bernadette, Kisun exclaims, "Bottle!"

Earthdiver says, "It has chosen you."

[General] Leafiara thinks, "Well, here's a glass bottle. Maybe it's more interesting thatn previous things, we'll see."

[General] Chandrellia thinks, "Nope, nothing interesting happeneing at the sands."

Speaking to Bernadette, Vaemyr asks, "Note in a bottle?"

Setch asks, "Message in a bottle?"

Speaking to Bernadette, Pukk exclaims, "You have been chosen. Farewell Bernadette!"

[General] Ycelacie asks, "There was a glass bottle?"

Setch asks, "Or just rum?"

Bernadette softly says, "I tink mebbe."

Bernadette removes a scrap of stained parchment from in her glass bottle.

[General] Ycelacie asks, "Oh... the thing you said, was a message in this bottle, yes?"

Bernadette softly says, "Hmm."

[General] Peggyanne thinks, "Its a vast harbor out there... ye may even find debris near solhaven."

Leafiara says, "Hopefully that one's not another scroll."

Bernadette softly says, "Me kinna reads it."

Speaking to Bernadette, Chandrellia says, "Let Leafi read it."

Lylia asks, "In another language?"

Bernadette offers Leafiara a narrow glass bottle.

Leafiara accepts Bernadette's glass bottle.

[inspect, analyze, and turn do nothing]

Leafiara offers Bernadette a narrow glass bottle.

'Bernadette offers Leafiara a scrap of stained parchment.

Kisun says, "Probably krolvins."

Leafiara declines Bernadette's offer.

Speaking to Bernadette, Leafiara says, "Yours to read, tell us."

Speaking to Leafiara, Chandrellia says, "She cant read the writing."

Speaking to Leafiara, Kiyna says, "I thought she said she can't- yeah."

Lylia says, "Rian is half-Elven. He may have written in Elven."

Leafiara says, "...oh." [OOC note: heh, I had read "kinna" as "dinna"]

Bernadette softly says, "I kinna read of not picjers."

Bernadette offers Stormyrain a scrap of stained parchment.

Stormyrain accepts Bernadette's stained parchment.

Bernadette softly says, "I dun reads."

Leafiara says, "Apologies, I hadn't realized."

[General] Ycelacie hopefully asks, "Will you say if something more than this bottle washes to shore?"

Leafiara offers Stormyrain a narrow glass bottle.

Leafiara muses, "In case the bottle itself has any magic to it."

Vaemyr says, "The bottle could tell us something too maybe."

[General] Kiyna thinks, "There was a note in it. In the process of reading it."

Pukk asks, "So what does it say?"

Pukk says, "The parchment that is."

[General] Leafiara thinks, "The marshal seems to be reviewing it now."

Speaking to Pukk, Kisun says, "Bottle says."

Bernadette softly says, "It dint has pichers."

Speaking to Kisun, Pukk asks, "To Xorus, with love Tyrrax?"

Bernadette softly says, "Ok Im ginna do me best."

Xorus says, "To.. the... Xorus, with love."

Speaking to Stormyrain, Vaemyr asks, "Stormy?"

Speaking to Pukk, Kiyna says, "Dead giveaway. It'd be 'the Xorus' if it were Tyrrax."

Bernadette softly says, ""It says "I am sorry, I had to stay. I believe he will release me. He needs me to live to tell his story. But I need to send a warning. Losing the halfling fractured things. He is wounded, but alive. Course is set for Glaoveln to meet with the Council of Crows. He seeks to rally others to him. He is more determined than ever. Send my wife south, to my mother's. She will resist. But send her." It is signed, "R.L."

Speaking to Kiyna, Pukk says, "Oh so true."

Stormyrain offers Bernadette a scrap of stained parchment.

Chandrellia says, "Thats from Rian."

Bernadette accepts Stormyrain's stained parchment.

Bernadette softly says, "Looks so."

Kiyna says, "I'm glad he's alive..."

Kisun says, "Oh."

Lylia says, "I shall let Elizabeth know."

Earthdiver says, "Rian is so...dedicated."

Earthdiver says, "To this Krolvin mission."

Kisun asks, "What is the Council of Crows? Krolvin Council?"

Chandrellia asks, "What is this Council of Crows he speaks of?"

Earthdiver says, "So it would seem."

Leafiara says, "Their stormcrows, perhaps."

Speaking to Leafiara, Chandrellia says, "Oh, great."

Leafiara offers Bernadette a narrow glass bottle.

Bernadette nods.

Bernadette accepts Leafiara's glass bottle.

Speaking to Leafiara, Vaemyr says, "The leaders of them yes."

Vaemyr says, "They... aren't good news."

Bernadette put a scrap of stained parchment in her glass bottle.

Speaking to Earthdiver, Pukk says, "Every smart husband knows that he has to fear his wife. It's common sense."

Bernadette just opened a large sack.

Speaking to Vaemyr, Leafiara asks, "Ah, you've encountered them before?"

Bernadette put a narrow glass bottle in her sack.

Bernadette softly asks, "I tink mayer might know?"

Bernadette softly asks, "Thadston?"

Vaemyr says, "Mainly in writings, but just one typically has the ability to summon hosts of demons."

Speaking to Leafiara, Vaemyr says, "They do not practice... restraint."


Amos Catches Up

[General] Kiyna thinks, "The note is from our kidnapped militiaman, Rian Larson. It says he's alive, and the krolvin needs him to scribe his story. Losing the halfling wrecked his plans, and he's going back to Glaoveln to meet with the Council of Crows."

[General] Amos thinks, "That is excellent news then. We were successful."

Vaemyr says, "But yes tis good Rian is still alive... although I somewhat wish I could strangle him for abandoning his wife... I understand having a calling."

[General] Lylia thinks, "He also wishes his wife to go south to his mother's home."

[General] Vaemyr thinks, "Amos! you are well."

Setch says, "Ah, not dead."

Leafiara says, "It is a bit bizarre on his part."

[General] Chandrellia thinks, "Oh well hello Amos so nice of you to let us know you are ok."

[General] Pukk disappointedly thinks, "Oh you survived."

[General] Kayse surprisedly exclaims, "Amos. Fair evening!"

[General] Lylia thinks, "Ah, good evening to you. At least, I hope it is for you."

[General] Pukk exclaims, "I mean. Oh you survived!"

[General] Falvicar thinks, "It'd be more successful if we got to bury you, Amos."

[General] Opalina thinks, "Good evening Amos."

Lylia says, "I suspect the partners of driven men, and women for that matter, understand what it is to be espoused to a force of nature."

[General] Amos thinks, "Ah, Falvicar, the child who should have been thrown over the cliff's edge. A shame. I am sorry to disappoint you."

[General] Kisun asks, "Amos, how did you.. survive?"

[General] Ycelacie defensively thinks, "That is rude."

Vaemyr says, "Was just checking the north docks."

[General] Chandrellia thinks, "Ok lets not get into a screaming match in my head please."

Vaemyr says, "Now that Amos is on the net."

Vaemyr says, "I'm assuming he was picked up by his ship."

Leafiara says, "I figure that if he wants people to know where he is, he'll say it."

[General] Setch thinks, "Well... YOU were successful, I don't know about this us business, you have what you wanted, but it seems we may be in a greater pickle than before when they come back."

[General] Pukk thinks, "Well, Amos is probably undead....so he wasn't properly released...so he just pops back up."

[General] Opalina thinks, "You can scream in my head."

[General] Chandrellia thinks, "We have bigger fish to think about right now, like this Council of Crowa."

[General] Ycelacie curiously asks, "Is there still only the bottle on the sands? And Amos in our heads?"

Kisun says, "Probably at helga's chokin down one of them terrible sandwiches."

[General] Amos thinks, "I am at the Sleeping Dragon Pub."

Leafiara says, "And there we are."

Kisun says, "A pub for sure."

Leafiara says, "That's at Dragonsclaw Arms."

[General] Ycelacie embarrassedly asks, "Which... one is that?"

[General] Lylia thinks, "We were largely successful, in fact. Kharusa is free. Amos has his shackles. Only Rian remains an unsolved problem."

Leafiara says, "Alright, heading over..."

[travel]

[Dragonsclaw Arms, Lobby]

The spacious lobby is furnished with old but well-kept chairs and couches in a variety of deep-toned upholstery. Several residents and locals lounge around the quiet room, reading and drinking coffee or bottles of ale. An expansive carpet woven with the image of an ancient dragon bordered in elaborate mystical patterns covers the floor. A polished wooden staircase leads up. You also see an ornate dark wooden arch and a wooden bin.

Leafiara says, "Ah, that's the one..."

[Sleeping Dragon Pub]

A huge, elaborate wooden carving of a peacefully sleeping dragon stretches on the shelf behind the long, brass-railed bar from one end to the other, dominating the room. The pub is all dark wood and polished brass fixtures, and the cozy booths are upholstered in well-worn red leather that must have once been luxurious. You also see the phantasmal Ycelacie disk, the Aurien disk, the Opalina disk, a small raven that is flying around, a black-tipped swamp hound, the Toporock disk, the Tcope disk, the bloodstained Xorus disk with scuffed and dented sides, the Asben disk, the Vaemyr disk and an elderly bartender.

Also here: Argent Master Aurien, Chronicler Opalina, Mistress Ycelacie, Toporock, Tcope, Xorus, Magister Raelee, Imperatrix Lylia, Vaemyr, Lord Asben, Stormyrain, Kayse, Lord Amos

Setch, Kisun, Earthdiver, Bernadette, Pukk, Chandrellia and Kiyna followed.

Amos says, "I have lost my touch."

Lylia asks, "Going for an even score, then?"

Earthdiver says, "It's something of a mystery why Rian stayed. But at least he is a volunteer at this point."

Speaking to Amos, Kisun says, "Almost lost yer life."

Speaking in Giantman to Amos, Asben says something you don't understand.

Amos bows to Asben.

Earthdiver says, "So I don't think rescuing him would make sense. He is in a better position to judge his role than we are, I think."

Amos kisses Opalina tenderly on the hand.

Amos bows to Opalina.

Amos says, "A friendly councillor. Refreshing."

Speaking to Earthdiver, Lylia says, "Stayed to learn more, I believe. And what he has given us is invaluable. Should he live, he should be accorded high honor."

Speaking to Amos, Vaemyr says, "I for one would still like to thank you for your help the other night, while it didn't exactly go as planned, we couldn't of struck that blow without you."

Amos nods at Opalina.

Amos smirks.

Opalina smiles at Amos.

Speaking to Amos, Chandrellia says, "She hasnt gotten to know you yet."

Speaking to Earthdiver, Leafiara says, "Well, it's not just that... there's also the matter of whether he doesn't want to be saved."

Amos nods at Vaemyr.

Earthdiver says, "I do hope there is more driving him than a good book...something strategy-based. But lesser things have driven others to greater heights, so who knows."

Amos says, "The world is better when the bay is ladden with krolvin bodies."

Opalina quietly says, "Of that I whole hartedly agree."

Amos asks, "The scholar lives?"

Speaking to Earthdiver, Kisun says, "Aye, he is part of Tyrrax legacy. He has to stay with him."

Aurien says, "I find they foul the water."

Vaemyr nods at Amos.

Speaking to Amos, Chandrellia says, "Yes yes, tides of war and all that."

Speaking to Amos, Lylia says, "He appears to, yes."

Earthdiver says, "Yes, we found a note from him in a bottle - washed up on the shore."

Speaking to Amos, Vaemyr says, "He does, seems to be back at Tyrrax's side though."

Amos nods.

Earthdiver says, "Or that is what he wants Tyrrax to think."

Vaemyr says, "Most concerning is he's going to the council of crows on Glaoven."

Amos says, "A fool. But perhaps he still serves a purpose for us."

Amos asks, "What else did his message say?"

Earthdiver says, "But perhaps Rian has discovered something about Tyrrax's plans...and means to learn more before he departs."

Amos scratches himself idly.

Speaking to Amos, Chandrellia says, "That was about all."

Kisun whispers to the group, "I wouldn't tell him what it all says."

Speaking to Amos, Vaemyr says, "He's going back to Glaoveln for reinforments, from the Council of Crows, I assume the stormcrow elders."

Lylia says, "Bernadette let us know what was in the missive. She has an excellent memory and may be able to recount it more precisely."

Ycelacie offers Xorus a piece of bright white paper.

Chandrellia says, "Just that he is alive, and that they still need him as Tyrrax's schlar."

Xorus accepts Ycelacie's bright white paper.

Speaking to Xorus, Ycelacie says, "It was late mailed."

Speaking to Vaemyr, Kiyna says, "Will the council not dress him down for his abject failure on all counts? A krolvin warlord in retreat has a short career ahead of him, I suspect."

Amos says, "Council of Crows."

Amos says, "I see."

Amos nods.

Bernadette softly says, "Gimme a sec lemme tink."

Xorus offers Ycelacie a piece of bright white paper.

Ycelacie accepts Xorus's bright white paper.

Speaking to Kiyna, Lylia says, "Very good point."

Speaking to Amos, Kisun asks, "You've dealt with them before?"

Amos looks over at Kisun and shakes his head.

Speaking to Kiyna, Vaemyr says, "Perhaps, perhaps they see it as an opportunity to wage more war however."

Ycelacie says, "No..."

Amos says, "Perhaps it buys us time then. I expect my Courier by month's end. When he does come, we will need to be ready to act immediately."

Speaking to Kiyna, Lylia says, "But he also returns with some trophies, of a sort. He still has many of Praxopius' treasures. And he might seek more of them."

Ycelacie removes a piece of folded inky blue-edged paper edged with cracked sapphire blue wax from in her paper envelope.

Lylia says, "In Idolone."

Ycelacie offers Xorus a piece of inky blue-edged paper dappled with cracked sapphire blue wax.

Amos says, "The warehouses in Idolone were already struck."

Xorus accepts Ycelacie's inky blue-edged paper.

Speaking to Amos, Lylia asks, "What sort of action do you propose?"

Speaking flirtatiously to Xorus, Ycelacie whispers aloud, "Sorry, it is this one."

Bernadette softly says, "It says "I am sorry, I had to stay. I believe he will release me. He needs me to live to tell his story. But I need to send a warning. Losing the halfling fractured things. He is wounded, but alive. Course is set for Glaoveln to meet with the Council of Crows. He seeks to rally others to him. He is more determined than ever. Send my wife south, to my mother's. She will resist. But send her." It is signed, "R.L."

Amos says, "That is where Tyrrax gaiined his original treasures."

Xorus says, "Ah."

Xorus offers Ycelacie a piece of inky blue-edged paper dappled with cracked sapphire blue wax.

Bernadette softly says, "Perty much."

Amos says, "There are others, along port cities."

Earthdiver says, "I trust anything of value is being moved to warehouses...away from ports."

Speaking to Amos, Vaemyr says, "That's good news, that could give us time to create an artifical moonlight lens perhaps in that time as well."

'Amos says, "I cannot disclose at this time. Until the Courier confirms, and we are prepared to travel right away."

Amos scratches at his clothing.

Speaking to Xorus, Lylia asks, "Are you familiar with the Council of Crows, darling?"

Pukk says, "Moonlight."

Xorus offers Ycelacie a piece of inky blue-edged paper dappled with cracked sapphire blue wax.

Amos nods at Bernadette.

Speaking to Amos, Chandrellia says, "Is there, anything you can ever disclose, every turn you make is secret, yet we the council get reprimanded for doing things away from the public."

Amos says, "Thank you for sharing."

Amos nods at Bernadette.

Bernadette nods.

Bernadette softly says, "Sure ting."

Bernadette nods at Amos.

Amos asks, "I am not an elected official who ran on transparency and positive change, am I?"

Amos peers quizzically at Chandrellia.

Speaking to Vaemyr, Pukk says, "Didn't expect that did you."

Amos says, "Your chains are unlike mine."

Lylia says, "Councillors are publicly elected officials."

Speaking to Amos, Chandrellia says, "You were, yet even then you did things in secret."

Speaking concernedly to Amos, Kayse asks, "How are you feeling after the other night?"

Speaking to Lylia, Xorus says, "Not specifically. I am not all that familiar with the Glaoveln hierarchy."

Amos asks, "I was elected?"

Amos peers quizzically at Chandrellia.

Speaking to Amos, Kisun says, "Aye, we would like to know what the moves are, before we dive blindly into portals again."

Ycelacie begins to flirt with Xorus.

Amos says, "Recovering. I will be fine."

Speaking to Amos, Chandrellia says, "Oh stop with the formalities."

Amos nods at Kayse.

Earthdiver says, "You took quite a beating."

Lylia turns her head toward Ycelacie to favor her with a silent, withering gaze.

Lylia says, "I am right here."

Lylia chuckles.

Earthdiver says, "But I think you gave as good as you got."

Amos scratches at a stained necklace of yellowed lion's teeth.

Speaking to Amos, Kayse observes, "You keep scratching."

Speaking to Chandrellia, Pukk says, "I don't think elected means what you think it means."

Amos idly scratches himself on the neck.

Kayse glances skeptically at Amos.

Earthdiver asks, "Urglaes allergy?"

Speaking to Amos, Kisun asks, "You're sick.. Aren't you?"

Amos says, "A long bath will do me good."

Speaking sweetly to Xorus, Ycelacie asks, "Can I watch you brush it, just once please?"

Speaking quietly to Earthdiver, Opalina says, "He looks to be in pretty good shape if I do say so myself not that Im an empath."

Ycelacie offers Xorus a maoral-handled silver comb.

Xorus raises an eyebrow.

Speaking to Amos, Chandrellia says, "Oh wait, thats right, you cornerd Cordarius into making you into that position, now I remember."

Earthdiver says, "Perhaps some urglaes shards."

Ycelacie smiles at Xorus.

Speaking emphatically to Xorus, Ycelacie says, "It would make my day."

Amos says, "The only piece of the plan I am not divulging yet, are the storehouse locations."

Earthdiver says, "An unfortunate metal to have imbedded in your body."

Xorus says, "My wife is not thrilled with this request."

Pukk asks, "Don't those storehouses belong to Xorus?"

Amos says, "Rightfully so. We are not ready to travel there. I would not alert our enemies before hand."

Ycelacie inquisitively asks, "Who is that?"

Speaking to Pukk, Lylia says, "Yes."

Speaking to Amos, Goldstr says, "Unnerstood der."

Speaking to Ycelacie, Lylia says, "Hello."

Goldstr nods at Amos.

Speaking to Amos, Chandrellia says, "Or what your courier is bringing, yet you say we must act immediately when gets here, which gives us no time to plan or prepare for what is to come."

Speaking pleasantly to Lylia, Ycelacie says, "Isn't his hair lovely."

Speaking to Ycelacie, Lylia says, "I believe we have met, if not in person, then as you are oozing all over my husband. I understand the temptation, though. Most forgivable."

Speaking to Amos, Kiyna says, "Prudent."

Lylia says, "Yes."

Speaking to Xorus, Ycelacie says, "She agrees."

Ycelacie beams!

Amos asks, "No time to plan or prepare is your...usual form of method is it not?"

Amos peers quizzically at Chandrellia.

Ycelacie offers Xorus a maoral-handled silver comb.

Ycelacie stares at Xorus.

Lylia says, "But perhaps we could pay attention to matters of greater importance even than my husband's hair."

Pukk says, "I forgot my popcorn."

Speaking quietly to Amos, Opalina says, "I checked some of the local warehouses there are some packages waiting to be delivered yet perhaps they should be considered."

Lylia says, "And 'no' is a complete sentence."

Speaking to Lylia, Ycelacie says, "You are right."

Speaking to Amos, Chandrellia asks, "Oh no we have learned quite a bit lately, and have done what we can to, how shall I say, turn our wagons around for the better of the town?"

Vaemyr whispers something to Amos.

Amos says, "When Ivorel has brought us the information, we will set course for whichever destinations we need too. The storehouses have several wards and traps if you will. We'll need to find what troves still remaiin from the Alchemist's legacy."

Kisun whispers to the group, "Through the ages, and studying, I remember that urglaes can cause transformations, along with curses in someone who doesn't wield it properly. Which is why it's so rarely used for forging. Perhaps the same happens when it's shot into your chest."

Amos nods at Vaemyr.

Earthdiver whispers to the group, "I look forward to the transformations."

Amos says, "There is little to prepare for outside of that."

Opalina quietly says, "Sounds very dangerous."

Speaking to Xorus, Pukk says, "Sounds like he is planning on taking your stuff."

Opalina quietly says, "I do hope you are careful."

Speaking to Amos, Vaemyr asks, "Anything that you can think of besides the Alchemist just wanting to screw with all of us, for why he pointed Tyrrax here?"

Amos begins chuckling at Pukk!

Speaking to Amos, Kiyna asks, "With respect, are you asking us to accompany you? To the warehouses?"

Vaemyr says, "Oh... the note Dendum got from Rian the night of the attack."

Speaking to Kiyna, Kisun says, "He said we could go look into them before."

Amos says, "It is my understanding, the krolvin learned of here, after their initial raid on Idolone's storehouses."

Speaking to Leafiara, Vaemyr says, "He mentioned the star."

Vaemyr asks, "Right?"

Vaemyr asks, "And Grishom?"

Leafiara says, "He did."

Setch says, "Is there a reason you only committed one ship to battle? We could have defeated them entirely had you employed all four."

Goldstr asks, "If I may ask folks, Do we knows where Khahusa be?"

Amos says, "I cannot imagine Fortney would purposely point the krolvin here. He despised them. Of course, my interactions with him were limited, at best."

Speaking to Goldstr, Lylia says, "I wish I knew."

Amos says, "Only long enough to acquire what I needed."

Speaking deliberately to Goldstr, Kiyna says, "Safe."

Speaking to Goldstr, Chandrellia says, "We havent heard from her since she said she was safe and being treated rather well."

Amos nods at Goldstr.

Amos says, "The next topic for tonight."

Amos says, "The halfling."

Amos asks, "Where is she?"

Speaking bluntly to Amos, Ycelacie asks, "Does anyone know yet, where this poison recipe is?"


Starring Role

Speaking to Amos, Vaemyr says, "There was a note given to Dendum from the scholor, that mentioned the Star, and potentially using it to defeat Grishom, that Tyrrax had these ideas."

Speaking to Amos, Chandrellia asks, "Did you not just hear me?"

Amos smirks at Lylia.

Amos peers quizzically at Vaemyr.

Earthdiver says, "Probably staying away from the seaside for a bit."

Vaemyr nods at Amos.

Lylia says, "Dendum is not here, but he allowed me to read the note. I wrote it down, as best as I could recall."

Speaking to Chandrellia, Kisun says, "He did get punched in da head once or twice."

Lylia removes some illuminated papers from in her wrap.

Speaking to Kisun, Chandrellia says, "Apprently not hard enough."

Amos says, "Your lips were too close to another councilor's behind, it was muffled. Speak up."

Amos nods at Chandrellia.

Speaking to Amos, Chandrellia asks, "Oh like yours were on the ship with Tyrrax?"

Chandrellia shrugs.

Lylia recites, ""The light bringer seeks to end Lalk Morgil. Wishes to unite krolvin under him as a historical legend. Wants to rally to take back Star of Khar'ta and defeat the blood heretic. Watch over my wife. Tell her I love her. Tell her I should have listened."."

Amos glances between Chandrellia and Leafiara.

Amos smirks.

Lylia says, "It was brief."

Amos nods at Lylia.

Amos says, "I see."

Amos says, "Ambitious and foolish warlord."

Kisun whispers to the group, "I thought the star of Khar'ta was destroyed?"

Earthdiver asks, "Do they come in other varieties?"

Ycelacie embarrassedly asks, "I'm sorry, some of the things I hear I do not fully understand, but is it known yet where this poison recipe is?"

Stormyrain offers Kayse a lemon gin fizz.

Kayse accepts Stormyrain's lemon gin fizz.

Speaking to Stormyrain, Kayse mouths, "Thank you."

Speaking to Earthdiver, Vaemyr says, "Sometimes... but rarely."

Goldstr exclaims, "We canna let him get da Star!"


Kharusa's Whereabouts

Amos asks, "Now, where is the halfling?"

Vaemyr says, "Good question."

Speaking to Amos, Chandrellia says, "Let me repeat a lil slower for you."

Pukk says, "Evidently the main ingredient of the recipe is Xorus blood. It is rumored to kill everything."

Goldstr asks, "Aye Where she be?"

Speaking quietly to Ycelacie, Opalina says, "Not yet they are trying to find it still.. it may be in one of the warehouses they are trying to safely search."

Bernadette softly says, "Dis I dunnos."

Speaking to Pukk, Lylia says, "False! I am still just fine."

Setch asks, "The... ship with a bar, was it?"

Speaking to Amos, Chandrellia says, "We, have, not, heard, from, her, since, she, said, she was, safe."

Kiyna says, "All you need know of Kharusa is that she is safe. If she wishes to come forward, it will be of her own will, and not through any coercion of those gathered."

Amos says, "I never asked for her condition. I asked for her location."

Amos asks, "We? You speak for everyone present?"

Amos peers quizzically at Chandrellia.

Stormyrain glances between Kiyna and Chandrellia.

Speaking to Amos, Kisun says, "She does."

Stormyrain says, "Those are two different statements."

Speaking to Amos, Chandrellia says, "Well seeing as she was awfully loud in our heads, one would think she would be again."

Setch says, "She mentioned a ship with a bar, that's as much as I know."

Amos glances between Chandrellia and Kiyna.

Amos asks, "Then you know where she is?"

Amos peers quizzically at Kiyna.

Kiyna sternly says, "The truefolk should be free."

Kiyna folds her arms over her chest.

Chandrellia moves to stand in front of Kiyna.

Kiyna glances at Chandrellia.

Speaking to Chandrellia, Vaemyr says, "Let her speak."

Bernadette softly asks, "How meny bars we got around here?"

Amos peers quizzically at Kiyna.

Speaking to Bernadette, Stormyrain murmurs, "Not enough most days."

Speaking to Kiyna, Pukk says, "No pressure. You can take Amos. Just tackle his ankle and get him to fall down."

Speaking to Amos, Kiyna says, "Having Kharusa was not one of your stipulated conditions, I will point out."

Amos says, "I did not ask for her."

Chandrellia says, "I can unpoisen you if you get anything in your mouth."

Pukk whispers something to Leafiara.

Amos says, "I merely wish to truly ensure she is safe. She also may hold valuable information about our enemy. What I do not wish, is for her to become some pawn leveraged about between the factions of shadows and heroes that run rampant in this town."

Kisun whispers to the group, "She's at the Cutlass, isn't she? She mentioned the bronze bird that is there."

Amos asks, "So again I ask....where is she?"

Earthdiver says, "I think with her power, that might be unlikely to happen any time soon."

Amos peers quizzically at Kiyna.

Stormyrain says, "I don't think any of us wish that for her."

Ycelacie curiously says, "Yes that would be terrible.."

Earthdiver says, "I think she will go, or not go, anywhere she pleases."

Aurien says, "Yeah those hero types can mess things up."

Amos smirks at Aurien.

Earthdiver says, "Though I do wonder how she ever managed to get captured in the first place."

Lylia pointedly says, "No one should wish that for her, but of course, she has already been tugged half to pieces without even being present."

Speaking to Amos, Kiyna says, "Which is precisely why she will remain safe until such time as I can safely escort her to her home. Or wherever it is she wishes to return."

Speaking to Amos, Goldstr asks, "Anything known bouts her Father?"

Amos asks, "Marshal, is the halfling's whereabouts truly unknown?"

Speaking quietly to Aurien, Opalina says, "The shadows are much safer."

Amos peers quizzically at Stormyrain.

Speaking to Earthdiver, Stormyrain offers, "She was saying something about her father."

Speaking to Amos, Stormyrain says, "I do not know anything about the halfling that you don't know. This is all new information for me, as well."

Stormyrain gives a sidelong glance at Kiyna.

Earthdiver says, "Oh, yes."

Speaking to Opalina, Aurien says, "Much more trustworthy."

Amos says, "A strange then, occuring outside of your control then." [OOC: I assume the first "then" should be "thing," but don't feel confident enough about it to fix it. Another alternative would be dropping the "A" at the start and perhaps the second "then" along with it.]

Amos nods at Stormyrain.

Earthdiver says, "Then I suppose maybe she will go back to Tyrrax."

(Kiyna plants her feet and meets anyone's gaze fiercely.)

Amos says, "Who is in charge, I wonder."

Chandrellia says, "And why should she tell us where she is, every single person that wants to now treat her like a criminal without knowing the facts, and now everyone wants to know where she is, I hope she went to the Nations and gets as far away as she can."

Speaking to Amos, Stormyrain offers, "Is it? I certainly do not know everything about the Consortium's doings either."

Stormyrain takes a moment to observe Amos.

Amos asks, "If you speak of her safety so confidently, then you can also confirm you know where she is, yes?"

Stormyrain folds her hands behind her back.

Amos peers quizzically at Kiyna.

Asben whispers something to Kayse.

Speaking to Amos, Vaemyr says, "Kiyna is my ward, I... trust her that she would of taken her to a secure location, and she knows several that I have used in the past."

Aurien says, "A simple fact, the less people that knows where she is, the less people that will try and use her for their own purposes."

Amos says, "I have earned the right to learn where the prisoner I freed is at."

Amos nods at Chandrellia.

Speaking to Amos, Kisun says, "She stated the other night that she is safe. And comfortable. And then she vanished from our minds. We have not heard from her since."

Speaking to Amos, Chandrellia says, "You earned the right to keep the shackles, that is all."

Amos says, "Unless the council placed another secret vote in the middle of the night and deemed her property."

Amos nods at Chandrellia.

Speaking to Amos, Chandrellia says, "Maybe we did."

'Amos says, "I see."

Chandrellia shrugs.

Kiyna says, "I don't trust the council with this."

Amos nods at Kisun.

Vaemyr says, "No one is property in this town."

Speaking to Chandrellia, Pukk exclaims, "We did? You all placed a vote without me?!"

Amos asks, "And no word from her since then, is not alarming to anyone?"

Speaking to Pukk, Chandrellia exclaims, "Awe man I was gonna say the same thing to you!"

Speaking to Amos, Kisun says, "I am in no councils, I have no reasons to keep anything from you Amos."

Amos turns an inquisitive ear toward Vaemyr.

Speaking to Chandrellia, Pukk exclaims, "Don't try to sweet talk me...if you are going to be placing secret votes I want in!"

Amos asks, "Then you can confirm she is in a secure location?"

Opalina quietly asks, "Perhaps she should be made aware that Amaos is looking to speak with her?"

Amos peers quizzically at Vaemyr.

Speaking to Kisun, Chandrellia says, "Even if I wasnt a councilor for the town, I wouldnt tell him where my puppy poops if he asked."

Speaking to Amos, Pukk says, "Her puppy poops all over the place."

Lylia asks, "If you are at an impasse, then perhaps you should seek a detour. Is there a way for you, Kiyna, to assuage your concerns about her safety and share with a few people, or solely with Amos?"

Speaking quietly to Kiyna, Opalina says, "Let the halfling know Amos is here and wishes to verify her safety let her choose to come or not."

Kiyna says, "I will pass along such questions as I think will be helpful to her. I will not, however, accept any suggestion that she owes anyone here a lick of anything."

Speaking to Chandrellia, Stormyrain says, "Interesting opinion to have of someone who literally gave himself up to fulfill a request we made of him as a town, to ensure the safety of our townsfolk."

Kiyna says, "She has been through enough."

Speaking to Amos, Vaemyr says, "I... cannot say for sure, which exactly location she would be kept in, but I do trust Kiyna at her word... she wouldn't lie to me."

Speaking to Amos, Goldstr exclaims, "She be a free lass, now freed from dem Krol/ She kin do as she wishes!"

Amos asks, "You will pass on questions, thus confirming you know her location?"

Setch says, "She's lucky to be alive with those antics she pulled."

Amos peers quizzically at Kiyna.

Speaking to Stormyrain, Chandrellia says, "And how many of us have done the same, yet we continue on day after day, asking nothing in return."

Amos says, "Allow me to clarify. I do not need to know where she is."

Amos nods at Kiyna.

Lylia indifferently says, "She has done less for any of us than one scholar with a frayed quill. I do not care her whereabouts, only inasmuch as she no longer assists Tyrrax."

Speaking to Amos, Ycelacie exclaims, "Oh!"

Speaking to Amos, Ycelacie says, "While we are being clear."

Earthdiver says, "It's not like it's exactly hard to get thoughts to...Kharusa."

Amos says, "But implying she is safe, but refusing to acknowledge you know her whereabouts, is concerning."

Speaking cautiously to Amos, Ycelacie asks, "Do you have any idea where to find.. the thing, which you lost in your warehouse?"

Ycelacie asks, "I mean, you did lose it there, yes?"

Amos says, "No."

Speaking to Amos, Goldstr asks, "Why dat be?"

Amos turns an inquisitive ear toward Kiyna.

Pukk asks, "Didn't you say in the beginning that you didn't care about the halfling. The only thing you cared for were the shackles?"

Speaking to Amos, Kiyna says, "I do know where she is. And you won't have it from me. I know you have those shackles."

Amos says, "I never said that."

Amos nods at Pukk.

(Kiyna keeps cautious distance from Amos.)

Amos begins chuckling at Kiyna!

Speaking to Amos, Pukk says, "Darn. I wish you did. It would make my argument so much better."

Speaking in Elven, Nairena softly says something you don't understand.

Amos says, "I would not need the shackles to learn the truth from you."

Speaking in Elven, Nairena softly asks something you don't understand.

Amos says, "Good. Then you know where she is. She is safe."

Chandrellia whispers something to Nairena.

Amos nods at Kiyna.

Speaking to Nairena, Lylia murmurs, "He lives and is setting sail for Glaoveln."

Kiyna nods once at Amos.

Speaking in Elven to Nairena, Leafiara says something you don't understand.

Amos says, "Pass along my request please, that I would wish to meet with her. If she chooses."

Amos nods at Kiyna.

Amos says, "I would appreciate that."

Kiyna says, "...I will pass that along, yes."

Lylia continues, "Accompanied by the half-elven scribe Rian, who believes Tyrrax will want him alive to tell the story of his rise to power."

Amos asks, "Now, was that so hard?"

Amos peers quizzically at Kiyna.

Speaking to Amos, Goldstr says, "Well said."

Speaking in Elven, Nairena softly says something you don't understand.

Speaking to Kiyna, Chandrellia asks, "Be sure to tell her he holds the shackles that chained her to the Krolvin as well please?"

Amos whispers something to Vaemyr.

Vaemyr glances at Amos.

Amos glances at Chandrellia.

Speaking to Chandrellia, Kayse corrects, "You mean he freed her...."

Speaking in Elven, Lylia dryly remarks something you don't understand.

Chandrellia stares at Amos.

Setch says, "She was there when they were taken off her."

Ycelacie boredly asks, "There are drinks here somewhere?"

Speaking to Chandrellia, Kiyna says, "I will not let her come to harm. And harm doesn't just include the physical variety."

Amos says, "She will remember it was my ring that unlocked her. Not yours."

Amos nods at Chandrellia.

Setch says, "He literally..."

Setch nods at Kayse.

Speaking offhandedly to Chandrellia, Kayse says, "Perhaps you should chose your words more carefully in the future."

Vaemyr whispers something to Kiyna.

[General] Gamiron thinks, "I can get you 2 remi."

Kiyna glances at Vaemyr.

Amos scratches at a stained necklace of yellowed lion's teeth.

Speaking to Amos, Chandrellia says, "And you think even tho she was freed by your hand she wont feel that you will do the same, you can say it all you like, its her feeling here, her fears, yet you just want to pry into her mind like a rolton sandwuch."

Amos says, "I said none of that."

Amos nods at Chandrellia.

Chandrellia says, "No you didnt."

Kiyna says, "If any of you have questions for Kharusa, I will be your intermediary."

Amos says, "You are as loose in your mind as you are your mouth."

Setch asks, "She certainly pried into enough of ours, only murdered what... seven, eight people?"

Chandrellia says, "But that, is what she will feel, what she will think."

Speaking slowly to Chandrellia, Stormyrain asks, "She's a very talented mentalist and I have yet to see any suggestion that Amos can even read a simple thought?"

Speaking to Amos, Stormyrain murmurs, "No offense."

Speaking to Setch, Kiyna says, "Under magical duress. She could hardly refuse."

Amos smirks at Stormyrain.

Amos says, "None taken. We all have our limits."

Speaking to Setch, Kiyna says, "If you hold this against her, you're a fool."

Amos says, "Some are just crippled by extensive ones."

[General] Remizycas thinks, "I'm good thank u good people."

Amos glances at Chandrellia.

Speaking to Opalina, Ycelacie asks, "Want one?"

Speaking to Stormyrain, Chandrellia says, "And how do we know that the chains didnt actually enhance her abilities, to make them more powerful? perhaps she cant do it at all, and it was only the chains that allowed her to do such things."

Opalina offers Amos some dark dwarven whiskey.

Amos accepts Opalina's dwarven whiskey.

Amos turns toward Opalina and renders a sharp salute with his dwarven whiskey.

Setch says, "The chains did not compel her. They just glowed when the truth was spoken. Murder is murder."

Speaking embarrassedly to Opalina, Ycelacie says, "Oh."

Speaking to Kiyna, Aurien says, "You just keep her wherebouts to yerself lass. The less that know the better."

Lylia says, "Precisely so. We do not know, because she is hidden, and safe, which is all well and good -- but it means she is not here to answer questions."

Speaking slowly to Chandrellia, Stormyrain asks, "If the shackles did that, then why would Tyrrax not have worn them himself so he didn't have to rely on anyone else to find out what he wished to know? From anyone? Including his krolvin minions?"

Lylia says, "The important thing is that Tyrrax is now deprived of a weapon."

Speaking quietly to Falvicar, Opalina asks, "Do you want one too darling?"


Concluding Remarks

Amos says, "The night has turned sour. To finish this night, I wanted to thank you all, most of you all...for your participation in turning the tables on Tyrrax."

Speaking to Kiyna, Vaemyr says, "Would you be willing to at least bring me to see her at some point? You can blindfold me if you wish, but you know you can trust me. Just so I can also affirm that she is safe to others. I know right now she is probably stressed and needs to recover, but maybe in a couple weeks."

Speaking sweetly to Kiyna, Ycelacie says, "If you need anything don't hesitate to ask, I can be very resourceful."

Setch says, "The absolute least she can do to start making up for her crimes is to speak with us."

Speaking to Amos, Pukk says, "You're welcome."

Kiyna nods at Ycelacie.

Amos says, "The battle is not over, but we've bought some time, and stolen part of the krolvin's weapons against us."

Speaking to Stormyrain, Chandrellia says, "Perhaps he didnt understand them as well as he thinks, or perhaps some other reason, we dont know the full situtation I agree with that, but lets look at both sides of the coin here."

Speaking to Vaemyr, Kiyna says, "I'll think about it."

Speaking softly in Elven to Lylia, Nairena says something you don't understand.

Speaking to Amos, Lylia replies, "You have our thanks too, or at least some of us. We accomplished a great deal the other night, even if I was rather bitter about losing Rian."

Speaking quietly in Elven to Opalina, Falvicar says something you don't understand.

Vaemyr whispers something to Amos.

Speaking to Amos, Goldstr says, "We ha fought da Krol before, we knows."

Speaking to Amos, Kiyna says, "Don't misunderstand me. You freed Kharusa. I thank you for this."

Amos says, "When the Courier returns by month's end, we'll know more of our next move."

Amos nods at Kiyna.

Speaking in Elven, Nairena softly says something you don't understand.

Lylia says, "I look forward to that."

Chandrellia mutters, "You mean you will know more."

Amos says, "And if you are keeping her safe, than I thank you for that."

Speaking to Falvicar, Pukk asks, "Didn't you say the other day that you could beat Amos in a roshambo contest?"

Amos nods at Kiyna.

Kiyna nods at Amos.

Amos says, "No, we will."

Amos nods at Chandrellia.

Chandrellia releases a loud sigh and rolls her eyes dramatically.

Speaking softly in Elven to Amos, Nairena says something you don't understand.

Speaking to Falvicar, Pukk asks, "Or was it a limbo contest?"

Lylia whispers something to Nairena.

Speaking softly to Amos, Nairena says, "Not to tarnish your abilities."

Setch says, "Though she is being equally as useful as a dead krolvin at the moment."

Amos says, "I will be unable to scour the storehouses all by myself, much less overcome the wards in a short amount of time."

Speaking to Xorus, Pukk says, "Still talking about your property."

Speaking curiously to Amos, Ycelacie asks, "Can I help?"

Speaking quietly to Pukk, Falvicar says, "No need to inveigle...."

Lylia says, "Wards, you say."

Amos says, "Ivorel has been tedious in his work over the last several months, and he has made barely any progress."

Speaking to Amos, Ycelacie says, "To make sure.... everyone is being honest with one another."

Speaking to Amos, Kiyna says, "Then you'll be needing help. -Hired- help. I will lend my considerable talents for a price."

Speaking to Amos, Ycelacie says, "I am actually on a special assignment for the paper."

Pukk says, "Silver, the language for kingdoms."

Speaking quietly to Pukk, Falvicar says, "We both know I'd win."

Amos smirks at Kiyna.

Lylia says, "My property too."

Speaking to Kiyna, Setch asks, "Don't you have better things to do. Like hide a murderer?"

Speaking to Ycelacie, Chandrellia asks, "What paper?"

Speaking to Pukk, Xorus says, "By all rights of inheritance, estate laws, custom and tradition."

Speaking wryly to Amos, Kayse says, "Can't blame her for trying."

Speaking to Chandrellia, Kisun says, "She writing a book too."

Speaking to Xorus, Pukk says, "Oh yeah. I forgot that marriage rule. What's yours is hers and what hers is hers."

Speaking honestly to Amos, Ycelacie says, "We want to tell your story so that we can put those bad rumors to rest."

Amos says, "Now, if you'll excuse me. Even lions must sleep. We're expecting Breshon to arrive by tomorrow, and I'm sure Larsya will wish a feast."

Pukk asks, "Going to sleep in the jungle?"

Vaemyr says, "It'll be interesting to see Breshon again."

Speaking to Chandrellia, Ycelacie says, "The one in town here."

Stormyrain bows to Amos.

Amos bows to Stormyrain.

Speaking to Amos, Vaemyr says, "Rest well."

Speaking to Chandrellia, Ycelacie says, "Surely you know, you must read don't you."

Speaking to Amos, Lylia says, "Oh, lovely. A feast, you say? I look forward to this."

Amos nods at Vaemyr.

Chandrellia shows Ycelacie her TownCrier credentials.

Chandrellia asks, "This one?"

Amos says, "Unclear for sure."
