The Journey Ends in Success!

[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 skull-shaped Irval disk, a buoyant luck spirit that is flying around, a silver-tipped smoke grey wolf, a ditty bag, the Budroux disk, the Endargon disk, the Naliaka disk, a flying sanguine suede songbook, a large acorn, the Zaaldine disk, a masked owl that is flying around, some acantha leaf, a rose-marrow potion, a rose-marrow potion, some wolifrew lichen, some wolifrew lichen, some wolifrew lichen, some wolifrew lichen, some acantha leaf, some acantha leaf, a round silver-banded barrel, an herbal remedy donation bin, some wide stone benches with some stuff on it, an old well and an oak tree.

Speaking heartily to Leafiara, Chamorr says, "I bet the song is up up and away."

Saraphenia giggles.

Leafiara grins.

Julenne softly says, "Can't believe the god missed and got Leafi."

Julenne giggles.

Julenne softly says, "Or they jes sayin hey."

Speaking to Saraphenia, Leafiara asks, "I bet! You've been going at bounties hard for... what, five hours?"

Julenne giggles.

Leafiara starts chortling.

Leafiara grins at Julenne.

Speaking to Saraphenia, Leafiara says, "No shame in needing sleep at this hour if ya need it."

Leafiara chuckles.

Julenne nods at Saraphenia.

Saraphenia fans her wings outward, stretching first one long, bronze-veined, silver-hued wing, then the other in a long, sweeping arc at her sides.

Chamorr heartily says, "Ok, night folks."

Leafiara gives Chamorr a friendly hug.

Speaking heartily to Saraphenia, Chamorr says, "Glad i was awake to share it."

Saraphenia beams happily at Chamorr!

9 PM: The Epiphany of Possibility

[Locksmehr River, Encampment]

Carved benches depicting wild beasts ring a large blazing bonfire at the center of a clearing near the bend of the river. A small awning to the southwest provides shelter for a communal kitchen and wooden larder that is filled with a variety of provisions and supplies. Stacked firewood sits in a wrought iron cradle-like structure nearby. You also see the Alanamarie disk and the vermeil Julenne disk draped with silver strands of tidal pearls.

Also here: Alanamarie, Julenne

Julenne softly asks, "How is Phenia?"

Julenne peers quizzically at Leafiara.

Leafiara says, "Think she's doing okay."

Leafiara says, "Let me see if I can get her here..."

Leafiara says, "Telling her where to go."

Leafiara chuckles.

Alanamarie says, "Aww thats not nice."

Alanamarie snickers.

Leafiara says, "Hmm..."

Leafiara says, "I think she might need me to go there rather than come here, to be honest."

Julenne softly says, "Well I hope ye all have a goodnight."

Julenne softly says, "Waking up me sister rogue."

Julenne gives Leafiara a friendly hug.

Leafiara says, "Oh, wait, here she comes."

Leafiara says, "I think."

Leafiara chuckles.

Leafiara hugs Julenne, who wraps her in a warm embrace.

Julenne hugs Alanamarie, who wraps her in a warm embrace.

Alanamarie hugs Julenne, who wraps her in a warm embrace.

Alanamarie says, "Hiyas all."

Saraphenia whimpers at Leafiara!

Saraphenia gives Leafiara a warm buss on the lips.

Leafiara exclaims, "Hiyas love!"

Leafiara smiles.

Saraphenia gives Leafiara a lingering kiss.

Saraphenia kisses Julenne tenderly.

Saraphenia gives Alanamarie a lingering kiss.

Alanamarie gives Saraphenia a lingering kiss.

Alanamarie snickers.

Leafiara smiles.

Saraphenia smiles a half-hearted smile.

Speaking to Saraphenia, Leafiara says, "Shall we get some hunting in? I think you might be able to see your trainer as soon as tomorrow night if you're up early enough and late enough... but if not, then the day after."

Leafiara grins.

Speaking to Julenne, Saraphenia says, "We may have a cap party at muster tomorrow night."

Julenne beams happily at Saraphenia!

Julenne softly exclaims, "Nice!"

Julenne softly says, "Congrats."

Leafiara says, "Your gift does start pretty late in the evening, though..."

Leafiara says, "So maybe the day after."

Leafiara grins.

Saraphenia says, "I have less than 25K to go."

Leafiara nods.

Leafiara says, "Get a blue orb going and let's hunt down some bandits then."

Leafiara flashes a quick grin.

Saraphenia asks, "Where do I get a blue orb?"

Leafiara says, "You still have one, I think."

Saraphenia removes a shimmering blue orb from in her silk half-cape.

Leafiara nods.

Saraphenia gasps.

Leafiara tickles Saraphenia into laughing.

Saraphenia rubs the blue orb in her hand. It suddenly crumbles to dust.

Leafiara asks, "Do you have another one after that or was that the last?"

Saraphenia removes a shimmering blue orb from in her silk half-cape.

Leafiara nods.

Saraphenia's jaw drops.

Leafiara says, "Thought so."

Leafiara taps her white owl pin on its tiny head and it emits a loud hoot!

Saraphenia put a shimmering blue orb in her silk half-cape.

Saraphenia asks, "Where'd I get that??"

Speaking amusedly to Julenne, Leafiara says, "See, sometimes I know her orbs better than she does because I'm just as excited for her training or more."

Leafiara snuggles Saraphenia, who responds by cradling an arm around her.

Speaking to Saraphenia, Leafiara says, "From the event boxes."

Leafiara nods rhythmically.

Saraphenia whimpers at Leafiara!

Saraphenia exclaims, "Lets do this!!"

Leafiara lets out a cheer!

Leafiara clasps Saraphenia's hand tenderly.

Leafiara giggles.

Saraphenia kisses Julenne tenderly.

Saraphenia gives Alanamarie a lingering kiss.

Leafiara taps her white owl pin on its tiny head and it emits a loud hoot!

Leafiara exclaims, "Onward!"

Leafiara waves.

[Leafi and Phenia run around Solhaven]

Saraphenia exclaims, "I COULD cap tonight!"

Leafiara exclaims, "Possibly, if we go a while!"

[Leafi and Phenia go on a bandit run, diverting kills toward her so she can get through her Rings of Lumnis brooch rubs for the night, then turn in]

[Lyeonia Hall, Clerk's Office]

Bare of any papers, a plain oak desk is positioned diagonal to an unadorned high-backed chair behind it. Other chairs line the northern and eastern wall nearest the desk where long bulletin boards are lined with neat rows of tasks to be completed. A large armoire and armor stand are set side by side upon the western wall beneath a worn coat-of-arms banner. You also see Guild Taskmaster Malcrith.

Also here: Town Councilor Saraphenia

Saraphenia confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

Saraphenia exclaims, "Yay!"

[passing the time, they look through Duskruin arena prizes]

[Jolly Jellyfish Table]

A clear model of a jellyfish head sits in the center of the table, complete with a foolish grin. A flame in its center allows it to double as a light source. Wooden stools circle the table, carved jellyfish with flattened heads for seating and tentacles for legs. You also see a kelyn broadsword, a scratched mossbark shield, an acid-stained fireleaf runestaff, a spiked vaalorn shield, a chipped feras troll-claw, an ora dart, a mauve imflass broadsword, a bronze-hilted vultite short sword, a scorched orase runestaff, an acid-pitted kakore runestaff, a corroded imflass battle axe, an acid-pitted carmiln runestaff, a gleaming rowan runestaff, an oak-hafted feras war hammer, an exquisite rowan runestaff, a gnarled kakore runestaff, a sigil-etched kakore runestaff, a kakore-hafted razern-spiked cudgel, a vultite ball and chain, a small mossbark runestaff, a sturdy vultite falchion, a scratched orase runestaff, a kelyn-tipped mithril spear, a scratched vultite aventail, an ora-tipped zorchar backsword, a kelyn-tipped ora Hammer of Kai, a saw-toothed vultite backsword, a veniom-hilted ora dagger, a gleaming imflass war mattock, a vultite spear, a scorched carmiln runestaff, a jet black imflass broadsword, a gold-capped orase runestaff, a bronze-tipped mithril Hammer of Kai, a gornar falchion, an ornate ora-studded maul, a mithril-beaded whip, a bone-pommeled glaes short sword, a sleek kakore runestaff, some embossed glaes arm greaves, some scratched mithril leg greaves, some scarred cuirbouilli leather, a polished imflass greatshield, an old spiked vaalorn buckler, an ora-edged imflass backsword, some polished ora arm greaves, some polished full leather, some polished cuirbouilli leather, a thick ora shield, a lavender rowan runestaff, a gold-edged mithril handaxe, a cracked hoarbeam runestaff, a rough mossbark runestaff, a glaes-tipped feras dagger, a vaalorn flamberge, an imflass scimitar, a faenor-tipped glaes short sword, a scarlet mithril war hammer, a lily white imflass backsword, a faenor-weighted blackjack, a kelyn-tipped vultite awl-pike, a polished imflass katar, some old ora full plate, an embossed mithril aegis, a smooth mesille runestaff, some polished full leather, a ruby-pommeled steel claidhmore, a kakore greatshield, an old spiked ora greatshield, a small carmiln runestaff, an acid-stained deringo runestaff, a bronze-hilted vaalorn short sword, a fine carmiln runestaff, a bent deringo runestaff, an elegant orase runestaff, an imflass quoit, a stout mossbark runestaff, a bone-handled imflass battle axe, a large feras flamberge, a beech-hafted imflass handaxe, a bronze-tipped rolaren troll-claw, an ornate mesille runestaff, an ornate feras short sword, a gold-capped orase runestaff, a jagged vultite short sword, a sigil-etched mithril mace, a polished fireleaf runestaff, a large imflass falchion, a small mithril estoc, a tarnished imflass short sword, an invar-tipped vaalorn trident, a white ora dart, a carmiln runestaff, a bent vaalorn mace, a polished mithril shield, a vaalorn greatshield, a burnished leather breastplate and a bunch of other stuff.

Leafiara says, "Now to slowly sort through this mess."

Leafiara cackles!

Saraphenia exclaims, "Good gods!"

Leafiara giggles.

[sorting]

Leafiara says, "Just waiting for the invoker before we go hunt again."

Leafiara smiles.

Leafiara exclaims, "But we could talk about anything you want!"

Saraphenia says, "Less than 20K."

Leafiara says, "As you can see, there's still a lot of junk to sort."

Leafiara chuckles.

Leafiara turns to Saraphenia and cheers!

Saraphenia says, "I'm going in my mind a few moments."

10 PM: Ahead of Schedule

[the invoker arrives; Leafi and Phenia avail themselves of her services, set their own spells back up, and take down more bandits]

Saraphenia exclaims, "Done!"

[she's actually the first done, so the bandits continue for a while]

Leafiara exclaims, "Okay!"

[they go to turn in]

Saraphenia confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

Saraphenia beams!

[they return to sorting loot]

Saraphenia says, "If I can work it right, I will cap in the next five hours."

Leafiara lets loose a loud whoop of delight.

Leafiara says, "Getting ever closer."

Leafiara smiles.

Saraphenia asks, "What will happen when I cap?"

Leafiara considers, "Well... honestly, there's no way to know until it happens."

Leafiara says, "A lot of people get hit with lightning bolts."

Leafiara chuckles.

Saraphenia asks, "What is this, two months ahead of schedule?"

Leafiara says, "Let me check."

Leafiara grins.

Leafiara says, "Yep."

Leafiara says, "Well."

Saraphenia grins.

Leafiara says, "About a month and a half."

Leafiara says, "The schedule was that you'd be just short of 95 trainings by the end of this month."

Leafiara says, "Then just barely short of 98 by the end of next month."

Leafiara says, "You'd make 100 the month after, but the thought was it would be about halfway through."

Saraphenia exclaims, "And now I'm just short of 100!"

Leafiara lets loose a loud whoop of delight.

Leafiara says, "Slowly chipping away at this junk pile."

Leafiara gazes heavenward.

Saraphenia snickers.

Saraphenia says, "We're doing my brooch again after midnight."

Leafiara nods enthusiastically!

Saraphenia says, "I plan to stay up til at least 2 or 3."

Leafiara grins.

Leafiara exclaims, "Okie dokes!"

Saraphenia exclaims, "This is my final push. I can taste it, Goddess!"

Leafiara lets out a cheer!

[time to check on bounties]

[General] Saraphenia exclaims, "I'm making my final push to 100 tonight!!"

Leafiara asks, "Check for a good bounty just in case?"

[General] Archales thinks, "Good luck."

[General] Roelaren thinks, "Cheer saraphenia."

Leafiara says, "If it's not gems or bandits, we'll probably skip it."

Saraphenia confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

[General] Rysolee exclaims, "Lets get it!"

Saraphenia says, "A gem bounty."

[Kahlyr's Precious Gems]

Everything in this small shop gleams softly in the candlelight flickering from a crystal chandelier hanging overhead. A row of glaes-paned cases lines one wall, the first holding a collection of gems and the second displaying a diamond necklet. A carved wooden counter rests opposite. A carpeted stairway leads up to the second floor of the shop. You also see the palm frond-shaped Leafiara disk, the flaming Saraphenia disk and the jeweler Kahlyr.

[General] Darphin exclaims, "Prepare the celebration!"

[General] Peggyanne asks, "Would you like some company while this happens? someone to comfort you in your last moments, when the brutal arkati strike you from above?"

Saraphenia sighs.

[General] Leafiara exclaims, "She'll have company, fear not!"

Saraphenia says, "White point star diamonds."

Leafiara says, "Same bounty I have."

Leafiara says, "And I can't do it either."

Leafiara giggles.

Leafiara says, "It's okay, heads are full anyway."

Leafiara says, "We'll get bandits before they're empty."

Leafiara grins.

[back to base for junk sorting at the table]

Saraphenia exclaims, "I'm excited!"

Leafiara lets out a cheer!

Leafiara exclaims, "You should be!"

Leafiara grins from ear to ear.

[Phenia almost sells a Mystic Tattoo, so she and Leafi run around getting ink, but the buyer eventually backs out, so back to base]

Leafiara taps her white owl pin on its tiny head and it emits a loud hoot!

Saraphenia grins at Leafiara.

Leafiara smiles.

Saraphenia says, "Below 15k."

[Jolly Jellyfish Table]

A clear model of a jellyfish head sits in the center of the table, complete with a foolish grin. A flame in its center allows it to double as a light source. Wooden stools circle the table, carved jellyfish with flattened heads for seating and tentacles for legs. You also see the flaming Saraphenia disk, the palm frond-shaped Leafiara disk, an old imflass greatshield, some gold-lined white linen robes, a polished spiked carmiln shield, a carved kakore shield, a gleaming ora shield, some burnished reinforced leather, some polished vultite leg greaves, an ora aegis, an ancient villswood runestaff, a burled carmiln runestaff, an acid-pitted rowan runestaff, a polished orase runestaff, a drakar-beaded cestus, a mossbark runestaff, a tanik-handled ora handaxe, a vaalorn-edged vultite falchion, an oak-handled mithril morning star, an archaic ruic light crossbow, a bronze-hilted rolaren rapier, a gornar quoit, a baby blue ora knuckle-duster, an auburn rowan runestaff, an enruned vultite war hammer, a single bit vaalorn jeddart-axe, a hoarbeam runestaff, an exquisite orase runestaff, a corroded mithglin yierka-spur, a faenor-tipped vultite backsword, a polished ora aegis, a white ora ball and chain, some etched ora arm greaves, a burled orase runestaff, an exquisite deringo long bow, a jet black rowan runestaff, a scratched kakore runestaff, a sea green mithglin tiger-claw, a small vaalorn war hammer, a gem-pommeled drakar broadsword, a sturdy deringo runestaff, a sturdy orase runestaff, a faewood runestaff, a burnished feras handaxe, a rowan quarter staff, a gold-hilted mithril longsword, a polished vultite helm, an old imflass helm, a thick mithril shield, a nicked villswood shield, a deringo shield, a mithglin halberd, a rowan runestaff, a scratched ora shield, some gleaming vultite studded leather, a cerulean orase runestaff, an ornate deringo runestaff, a glaes scimitar, a large drakar-tipped whip-blade, a small deringo runestaff, a quad-flanged vultite mace, a black ora military pick, a sturdy imflass backsword, an ora discus, an imflass main gauche, a mossbark runestaff, a gold-capped mossbark runestaff, a vaalorn bastard sword, a banded orase runestaff, a half-crescent rhimar handaxe, some golden cuirbouilli leather, an etched mithril buckler, some scarred light leather, a gleaming mithglin aegis, an etched vultite aegis, a mesille composite bow, a mithril quoit, an ora discus, a gold-capped orase runestaff, a heavy backpack, a heavy backpack, a heavy backpack and a heavy backpack.

Leafiara cackles!

Saraphenia giggles.

Saraphenia asks, "Hunt again, Goddess??"

Leafiara exclaims, "Soon!"

11 PM: Ongoing Efforts

[back to arranging more bandits]

Leafiara says, "Got the bandits, sec."

Leafiara grins.

[they finish another bandit run]

Leafiara asks, "All set?"

Leafiara grins.

Saraphenia says, "Done."

Leafiara says, "Okay..."

[and turn in]

Saraphenia confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

Leafiara taps her white owl pin on its tiny head and it emits a loud hoot!

Leafiara says, "Check for another bounty too just in case."

Leafiara grins.

Saraphenia confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

Saraphenia frowns.

Leafiara says, "Nothing good."

Saraphenia says, "An heirloom."

Leafiara nods.

Leafiara says, "Yeah, we'll ignore it."

Leafiara chuckles.

[they drop off silver]

[Bank of Vornavis, Solhaven]

Dark panelled walls rise above you, culminating in a carved coffered ceiling. The plush burgundy carpets are silent underfoot. Merchants and townsfolk mill about, speaking in hushed, reverent whispers. Three teller windows are open, the quiet clink of coins drifting from within. You also see an exchange booth and a large sign.

Saraphenia beams!

Leafiara taps her white owl pin on its tiny head and it emits a loud hoot!

[with the junk pile now clear, they now head to their usual tower spot instead of a table]

Interlocking her fingers above her head, Leafiara stretches slowly, extending her spine in a satisfying stretch.

Saraphenia exclaims, "Less than 13K!"

Leafiara lets loose a loud whoop of delight.

[they wait to get more bandits]

Leafiara asks, "Check for a new one?"

Saraphenia confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

Saraphenia confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

Saraphenia confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

Saraphenia growls ferociously!

Saraphenia confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

Saraphenia confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

Leafiara rubs Saraphenia tenderly.

Leafiara says, "It's okay, we have time."

Leafiara grins.

[but Phenia doesn't want to wait and uses a bounty boost! she eventually gets...]

Saraphenia says, "Gems."

[but...]

Saraphenia says, "Nope."

Leafiara asks, "What are they?"

Saraphenia says, "A square of shale rock."

Leafiara says, "Definite nope."

Leafiara chuckles.

Leafiara says, "While you get a better bounty, I'll check for what I actually do have stocked from the Sanctum."

Saraphenia exclaims, "Bandits!"

[Solhaven, Esplanade Gate]

A swan of white ora sits on the green copper gates, proclaiming them an entrance into Vornavis. Around them stands a huge granite wall, protecting the inhabitants of the city from all intruders. Citizens move through the gates under the careful eye of the Baronial guard standing in front of the portal. You also see a Vornavis Baronial guard.

Saraphenia confers quietly with the guard.

Saraphenia says, "21 on the Outlands."

Leafiara nods.

Leafiara asks, "Head's still pretty full, right?"

Saraphenia exclaims, "Less than 12K!"

Saraphenia nods.

Leafiara nods.

Leafiara says, "Waiting a few minutes first, then."

Saraphenia says, "11910 to go."

Leafiara taps her white owl pin on its tiny head and it emits a loud hoot!

Saraphenia says, "In my mind a moment Goddess."

Leafiara nods.

Leafiara smiles.

[once she's back...]

Saraphenia snuggles Leafiara, who responds by cradling an arm around her.

Leafiara grins.

[they prepare to hunt]

Saraphenia beams!

Leafiara taps her white owl pin on its tiny head and it emits a loud hoot!

[and then they head out]

Saraphenia asks, "Should we await the invoker?"

Leafiara says, "No."

Leafiara grins.

Leafiara says, "Tonight's your night, so we'll make it fast."

Leafiara taps her white owl pin on its tiny head and it emits a loud hoot!

[they blast through bandits]

Saraphenia says, "Done."

Leafiara says, "Okies."

[but they're not done because Leafi has her own sets of bandits...]

Leafiara says, "Turn in and then I'll add you again."

Leafiara grins.

[so Phenia turns in for the exp and then gets a second round]

Saraphenia confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

Malcrith nods to you and says, "Very well, Leafiara. Saraphenia is now part of your task."

Malcrith turns and speaks quietly to Saraphenia.

Leafiara gives an approval gesture with her hand.

[they deposit coins]

Saraphenia exclaims, "Less than 10K!"

Leafiara gives an approval gesture with her hand.

Leafiara says, "Back we go, then the invoker."

[they start slaying more bandits]

Saraphenia says, "I can do my brooch in 3 minutes."

Leafiara says, "I know."

Leafiara says, "We'll have a new bounty for that, though."

Leafiara says, "Need to fill my own head."

Leafiara grins.

[Phenia finishes up...]

Saraphenia exclaims, "Done!"

[...just as it crosses past midnight]

12 AM: Pushing Hard

[eventually Leafi finishes up as well...]

Leafiara exclaims, "Okay!"

Leafiara asks, "Your mind's still too full to turn in, right?"

Saraphenia nods.

Leafiara nods.

[so they go catch the invoker]

[Town Square, Small Park]

A small, shaded park fills an old vacant lot behind a row of buildings, the bright lamplight from the square filtering through the passage to the north to illuminate the area with a soft glow. A weatherworn grey marble statue of a stocky human in pioneer's clothing overlooks the park, his stone hat encrusted by the gifts of decades of passing birds and his right hand half-upraised as if it once held some now-missing object. You also see a mire fox, the Nubbyns disk, the Halder disk, the Platio disk, the glossy pink Nyaria disk shaped like a jellyfish, a vexatious luck spirit that is flying around, the Detvitam disk, a half-elven invoker garbed in colorful layered robes, the black Murong disk, the yellow Kerwolf disk, the Condrysi disk, a black-footed forest wolfhound, the Tohmas disk, the earth brown Gongsunqin disk, a tall black bulwark tower and some ornate wrought iron benches.

The invoker releases upon Leafiara a flurry of abjurations.

The invoker releases upon Saraphenia a flurry of abjurations.

Saraphenia beams happily at Leafiara!

Leafiara lets out a cheer!

[and then they return to Beacon Tower]

Saraphenia whispers, "What does a doubled exp boost do?"

(OOC) Leafiara's player whispers, "Don't use it now, it won't do much because August is already +20% exp boost as it is."

Saraphenia nods.

Saraphenia bites her lip.

Leafiara slowly empties her lungs.

Leafiara asks, "Orb's still going too, right?"

Saraphenia nods at Leafiara.

Leafiara gives an approval gesture with her hand.

Leafiara says, "You've been going hard tonight, so it might actually wear off... though maybe that would take another two hours."

Leafiara ponders.

Saraphenia says, "I hit 100 tonight, I'm not hunting at all tomorrow."

Leafiara grins.

Leafiara says, "I'll be really busy tomorrow anyway, honestly."

Saraphenia gasps.

Saraphenia asks, "I thought you'd want to celebrate with your Dragonfly, Goddess?"

Leafiara says, "We'll celebrate, but I do have some things I need to take care of too."

Leafiara asks, "When do you think you'll be around?"

Leafiara says, "I can try to get things done before then."

Saraphenia says, "Well, I might be around at different times during the day."

Leafiara ponders.

Leafiara nods.

Leafiara says, "Hmm, okay..."

Saraphenia says, "I can turn in the bounty now."

[Leafi brings her to the guild, having forgotten that she needs the guard first]

Saraphenia confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

Leafiara asks, "Oh, guard?"

Saraphenia says, "I need the guard."

[so they do the guard and taskmaster to and fro]

Saraphenia confers quietly with the guard.

Saraphenia confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

Saraphenia exclaims, "Yay!"

Leafiara taps her white owl pin on its tiny head and it emits a loud hoot!

[they deposit at the bank, then return to the tower]

[Solhaven, Beacon Tower]

White limestone mixes with the tower's dark foundation from its base to its crown and is a marked sign of renovation to the ancient premises. Against the outer wall, a stone stairway spirals upward, its course illuminated by bracketed torches and interrupted by four landings. Above the stairway, the roof of the tower has been removed to expose the night sky and all eight crenellated points have been repaired. You also see a steep ramp.

Saraphenia's eyes light up and she trembles with excitement.

Leafiara grins from ear to ear.

Saraphenia exclaims, "Less than 8K!"

Leafiara lets loose a loud whoop of delight.

[General] Saraphenia exclaims, "Less than 8K left til cap!"

[General] Neischa thinks, "Congrats... be careful the next 8k though."

[General] Nalver thinks, "Keep knitting. Gonna need caps for winter."

Leafiara says, "This is admittedly cutting it a little close for how long you intend to be awake, but we do have your brooch still."

Saraphenia nods at Leafiara.

[they bide a little time, then eventually look into new bounties]

Leafiara asks, "Bounty check?"

Saraphenia confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

Saraphenia says, "A creature problem."

Leafiara says, "Nope."

Leafiara says, "We'll get bandits soon enough."

Saraphenia confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

Saraphenia confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

Leafiara nods.

[return to the tower]

Leafiara says, "Okay, we'll get 'em once your head clears a bit."

Leafiara says, "They're lined up, just... no point in dashing out there now when your head's already racing."

Leafiara grins.

Saraphenia nods.

[some more time passes]

Saraphenia says, "I could use one of my brooch rubs..."

Leafiara says, "I know you could."

Leafiara says, "One moment, figuring this out.."

Leafiara ponders.

[sorting bandit logistics]

Leafiara says, "Okay, here's what we'll do..."

Leafiara says, "There are two sets, outlands and plains."

Leafiara says, "Yours are on the plains, so we go to the Outlands first and get through your brooch."

Saraphenia nods.

Leafiara says, "We finish that, then wait until you can be added to another group bounty and get you on the plains ones."

Leafiara exclaims, "Here we go!"

[exhausting hunting ensues]

Saraphenia says, "Brooch is done."

Leafiara says, "Okay."

Leafiara says, "Finishing these up."

[they head back to the guard, but...]

Saraphenia says, "I still have the bounty."

Leafiara asks, "I thought you finished?"

Leafiara says, "Oh wait."

Leafiara stares off into space.

Saraphenia says, "I have 25 to kill on the plains."

Leafiara says, "I messed it up slightly, but the plan can still work, just..."

Leafiara says, "Need to pause for two minutes and then we can do it."

Leafiara chuckles.

Saraphenia nods.

(OOC) Leafiara's player whispers, "Brb."

Saraphenia dances around the area to music only she can hear.

Saraphenia makes a purring sound.

Leafiara exclaims, "Okay!"

Saraphenia grins.

Leafiara says, "Hopefully I planned this right."

Leafiara chuckles.

[more bandit hunting ensues]

Saraphenia exclaims, "Done!"

Leafiara says, "Okay."

Leafiara says, "Now we find out if I planned right."

[Phenia turns in at the guard and Malcrith, Leafi adds her back again, and they head out]

Saraphenia confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

Malcrith nods to you and says, "Very well, Leafiara. Saraphenia is now part of your task."

Malcrith turns and speaks quietly to Saraphenia.

Leafiara nods.

[they head to deposit]

Leafiara exclaims, "Bank!"

Leafiara asks, "All set?"

Leafiara grins.

Saraphenia nods.

[and then it's right back out to bandits]

Leafiara says, "Finishing up for real."

Leafiara says, "Do let' em have it."

Leafiara taps her white owl pin on its tiny head and it emits a loud hoot!

[bandit hunting proceeds and eventually ends]

Saraphenia exclaims, "Done!"

Leafiara confers quietly with the guard.

Saraphenia confers quietly with the guard.

Leafiara confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

Leafiara says, "Still too full to turn in, I know."

Leafiara grins.

Saraphenia nods.

1 AM: The Final Tough Wait

Saraphenia says, "On this pace, I'll cap in less than an hour."

Leafiara says, "Your orb might be waning and there's no more brooch, though."

Leafiara says, "On the other hand, you get to turn in another bounty soon."

Leafiara ponders.

Saraphenia says, "I still have another orb."

Leafiara says, "I know."

Leafiara grins.

Saraphenia paces back and forth.

Interlocking her fingers above her head, Leafiara stretches slowly, extending her spine in a satisfying stretch.

Leafiara snuggles Saraphenia, who responds by cradling an arm around her.

Saraphenia whimpers at Leafiara!

Saraphenia bites her lip.

Leafiara smiles.

Leafiara says, "Just say the word when you can turn in your bounty or when your orb fades."

Saraphenia says, "2626."

Leafiara nods.

Saraphenia nods.

Leafiara says, "You might avoid lightning bolts, finishing training this late at night."

Leafiara grins.

Saraphenia giggles.

Saraphenia says, "Yeah, watch me wake up tomorrow and get zapped through our roof."

Leafiara cackles!

Leafiara lightly drums her fingers on her leg.

Saraphenia agrees with Leafiara.

Saraphenia paces back and forth.

Saraphenia says, "1140/1000."

Leafiara nods.

Saraphenia exclaims, "Ready!"

Leafiara asks, "Orb still going?"

Saraphenia says, "Yes."

Leafiara nods. Saraphenia confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

(OOC) Leafiara's player whispers, "Had to ask because if it wasn't, then rubbing the orb would be the better move than turning in the bounty."

Leafiara says, "Bank stop."

Leafiara ponders.

Saraphenia says, "1479 to go."

Leafiara says, "Then you have enough in your head to finish training as it goes."

Saraphenia asks, "Why does this feel like New Years??"

Leafiara grins.

Saraphenia giggles.

Leafiara says, "Depending how much of your brooch is left, this could be anywhere from 20 to 35 minutes."

Saraphenia says, "1540/1000."

Leafiara says, "Going to slip one more bounty in there because that'll speed it up by a little bit."

Leafiara rubs her chin thoughtfully.

Saraphenia nods.

Saraphenia exclaims, "Goddess! I'm going to cap tonight!!"

Leafiara turns to Saraphenia and cheers!

Leafiara exclaims, "You are!"

Leafiara grins from ear to ear.

Saraphenia asks, "How does that make you feel Goddess?"

Leafiara exclaims, "Makes me pretty proud!"

Leafiara grins at Saraphenia.

Leafiara says, "And happy for you, mostly."

Saraphenia exclaims, "Less than 1k to go!"

Leafiara lets loose a loud whoop of delight.

Leafiara says, "Just say the word when you're ready for our last rounds of bandits before you finish training."

[General] Saraphenia exclaims, "Less than 1K to 100!!"

[General] Mourdeyan exclaims, "Cheers to ya Saraphenia! huge kudos!"

[General] Chamorr thinks, "Thats awesome."

Leafiara grins.

Saraphenia asks, "Would that be when I'm not saturated?"

Leafiara says, "Yes."

[General] Directed to Saraphenia, Yardie exclaims, "Congratulations Sara!"

Leafiara says, "Or when you're just barely saturated."

[General] Chayesor exclaims, "Congratulations!"

[General] Directed to Saraphenia, Severine cheers, "Amazing!"

Leafiara says, "Aww, the people are celebrating."

Leafiara grins.

Saraphenia says, "1185/1000, 814 to go."

Leafiara ponders.

Leafiara says, "Maybe we should just do the bounty now and turn in when ready."

Leafiara chuckles.

Leafiara says, "Here we go."

You see Town Councilor Saraphenia Autumnwind the Grandmaster of the Ancient Way.

She appears to be an Aelotoi of the Cyrtae'ni Clan.

She is shorter than average and has a well-toned frame. She appears to be an adult. She has almond-shaped blue-black eyes and olive skin. She has waist length, glossy blue-black hair pulled back with a regal silvery green ora filigree diadem accentuated by fire opal shards, leaving her side-swept bangs to brush across her temples. She has an oval face, an upturned nose and a generous mouth. She has alternating cherry and vanilla polish brushed onto her neatly rounded fingernails. She has a pair of long, bronze-veined, silver-hued wings decorated with a mistwood lily charm nestled in gold-swept emerald leaves on each.

She has a row of tiny bejeweled butterflies in her right eyebrow, an ebon-lined plum dragonfly tattoo on her wrist, a diving eagle tattoo on her leg, a golden lute tattoo on her wrist, a soaring eagle tattoo on her neck, and a winged heart tattoo on her leg.

She is in good shape.

She is wearing a tiny diamond heart earring, a slender silver collar with a leaf-caged fire opal centerpiece, a copper stein insignia, a drake-winged insignia, an elegant thigh-slit scarlet dress with ivory edges, some lightweight owl-painted scarlet gloves with ivory banding, a silver dragon-embossed ring, a coppery red gold wedding band with tiny floral details, a trio of silver and gold hip-chains trailing glass-encased dragonfire emerald wings, some ivory satin leggings patterned with twining scarlet vines, and some lightweight eagle-painted scarlet slippers with ivory edges.

[bandit hunting commences]

[General] Julenne thinks, "Of sara of course we would."

[General] Julenne exclaims, "Thinkin is hard!"

Saraphenia says, "Jules wants to be with us now."

[General] Chamorr thinks, "I wanna see her get blowed up."

Leafiara says, "Okay."

[General] Leafiara exclaims, "We'll be in the Landing very shortly!"

Leafiara chuckles.

[General] Leafiara adds, "Before she finishes training."

[General] Julenne exclaims, "So excited!"

[General] Saraphenia thinks, "Will be at Beacon Tower."

Leafiara says, "No, we'll go to the Landing."

[General] Nalver thinks, "Know what would be cool? Like what if we imploded her. But instead of her going all inward, she went outward! I call it outloding."

[General] Saraphenia thinks, "In Solhaven."

Leafiara asks, "Or... you want to be in Solhaven for this?"

[General] Nalver exclaims, "Outlode Saraphenia!"

Leafiara says, "I think we should do it in our hometown."

Leafiara grins.

Saraphenia exclaims, "Done!"

Leafiara says, "Okay."

[they finish up]

Leafiara grins.

Saraphenia exclaims, "Done!"

Leafiara says, "Okay."

[General] Julenne thinks, "We killed Pangin, he never got bolted from the gods."

Leafiara asks, "Get the guard?"

Saraphenia confers quietly with the guard.

[General] Pangin thinks, "True."

[General] Peggyanne asks, "You murdered him?"

Leafiara confers quietly with Taskmaster Malcrith.

Leafiara says, "Okay."

Leafiara says, "That was your final bandit run before finishing trianing."

Saraphenia says, "Still saturated."

Leafiara nods.

[General] Hereafter asks, "Like in a bathtub, or...?"

Leafiara says, "We'll head to the Landing and you can turn in when ready."

[Solhaven, Beacon Tower]

White limestone mixes with the tower's dark foundation from its base to its crown and is a marked sign of renovation to the ancient premises. Against the outer wall, a stone stairway spirals upward, its course illuminated by bracketed torches and interrupted by four landings. Above the stairway, the roof of the tower has been removed to expose the night sky and all eight crenellated points have been repaired. You also see the Citan disk and a steep ramp.

Also here: Julenne, Jurist of Claw Citan

[General] Julenne thinks, "We had a blast killin him."

[General] Peggyanne thinks, "Not sure how i feel about that..."

Julenne beams happily at Saraphenia!

Leafiara exclaims, "Join up!"

Leafiara says, "We're heading up to the Landing."

[General] Saraphenia thinks, "Coming to landing."

Leafiara smiles.

Citan joins Leafiara's group.

Julenne joins Leafiara's group.

Leafiara taps her white owl pin on its tiny head and it emits a loud hoot!

[they begin traveling north]

Julenne flings herself against Saraphenia, bounces off of her, and giggles madly!

[General] Hereafter thinks, "How I feel about it depends on how it happened. Style points matter."

[General] Peggyanne thinks, "I dont think i can associate with cold blooded killers."
