Bixi Fizzlebang: [SKILL] Botany [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 14] [d20 = 1]
and so you all ARRIVE in the courtyard of the Inn of the Lost Eagle
Stable boy: Who are you?
Stable boy: WHERE did you come from?
Raelynn: Hmm, you weren't here last time, were you?
Bixi Fizzlebang: Is Gerry around?
Noble with horse: Boy! Where is my guard?
Craigh: The Countess Branwyn, and right here. A while ago.
Noble with horse: looks at the group, sniffs, you look .... presentable
Raelynn: And you look.... less than.
Craigh: checks his boots for horse poop
Stable boy: Yes Sir, just a moment Sir,
Stable boy: I will get him out of the Inn for you
Noble with horse: So
Noble with horse: You have heard of this lovely place I take it?
Noble with horse: The atmosphere is so cleansing
Bixi Fizzlebang: louder; IS GERRY AROUND?
Raelynn: Quite lovely with the sunshine, isn't it?
Noble with horse: Lovely to not have The Mist isn't it?
Craigh: May we know who we're talking with?
Noble with horse: Looks at the gnome, Why do you want to talk to a lowly barkeep?
Bixi Fizzlebang: Gerry is my friend, and has way more manners than you, apparently
Noble with horse: I am Lord Goplin
Noble with horse: and you my little gnome should go back to your burrow and let your betters deal with the world
Branwyn: And he owns the Inn you are staying at Lord Goplin
Branwyn: I would watch your words
Bixi Fizzlebang: Yeah, he definitely has more manners than you
Noble with horse: Looks at Branwyn
Branwyn: You are in Dragon Fen and you should be respectful to my friends
Noble with horse: Lady, I can see that you feel compassion for your companion, I admire that, but sometimes they do get out of hand, like a child that needs to be disciplined
Branwyn: That would be Countess Branadarus to you
Bixi Fizzlebang: Ummm, not unless we've time traveled. Gerry is a full grown adult who is very kind and capable of making his own decisions
Noble with horse: He BLINKS
Noble with horse: Are you certain you want to go about claiming to be the lost Countess?
Raelynn: Are you certain you can risk disbelieving her?
Branwyn: Are you certain you wish to be doubting me?
Branwyn: smiles at Raelynn
Noble with horse: I have heard that the Queen put two pretenders to death, I would be careful
Branwyn: looks at this Lord
Branwyn: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 19) [FAILURE by 1] [d20 = 20]
Stable boy: Sir, Gerry says that your man will be out shortly,
Raelynn: Perhaps you could expand on that, sir?
Bixi Fizzlebang: [SKILL] Alertness [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 14) [FAILURE by 6] [d20 = 20]
Raelynn: [SKILL] Etiquette [MOD:CHA] (vs. Target 16) [SUCCESS by 5] [d20 = 11]
Raelynn: [SKILL] Persuasion [MOD:CHA] (vs. Target 16) [SUCCESS by 5] [d20 = 11]
He is wearing traveling clothes with a large orange diagonal stripe from upper left to lower right
Craigh nips out to look up at the sky, just to make sure it looks the same as it did when they left.
Craigh: [TOWER] [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 15) [FAILURE by 2] [d20 = 17]
N'laea: Just ask him what year it is.
Yes the clear sky here in the courtyard looks like morning, just as when you left, there might be more clouds in the sky it might rain
Branwyn: focuses on his shirt and casts
Branwyn: [INIT] [MOD:Continual Light][Reaction Adj: -1] [d10+1 = 9]
Branwyn: Now everyone can see what a fool you are
Branwyn: You are a beacon of idiocy
Noble with horse : Blinks and looks down
Noble with horse : Looks up
Noble with horse : Looks down
Branwyn: I believe you were just leaving?
Branwyn: Indigo will open the gate for you
Gerry: Lord Goplin, Your man is coming, he is .... getting arranged after his night with the..... BRANWYN
Gerry: I mean Countess
Gerry: Indigo!
Gerry: What ! WHA. How
Gerry: I mean
Branwyn: Hello Gerry!
Bixi Fizzlebang: Oh thank gods
Gerry: Welcome back Countess
Bixi Fizzlebang: Gerry, are you ok? Is this guy treating you ok?
Gerry: Who?
Gerry: OH you are ..... um.... Blissy?
Bixi Fizzlebang: points to Goplin
Craigh: Umm.. the guard spent the night with the Branwyn? Did anyone else hear that, or just me?
Gerry: Yes I am good with the Inn than you
Raelynn: I did, but I don't think he meant that.....probably...?
Bixi Fizzlebang: glances at Craigh
Bixi Fizzlebang: An impersonator?
Gerry: What?
Branwyn: sighs
Gerry: OH you mean the fake Branwyn
Branwyn: He was interrupted and said my name
Licornah: :: looks around at the people and feels confused ::
Gerry: Yes I should take that more seriously
Raelynn: Wait there is a fake Branwyn? Another one?
Gerry: You could be another false Countess
Bixi Fizzlebang: What is happening here?
Bixi Fizzlebang: Would the fake Branwyn have all of us with her?
Raelynn: Um, a fake Branwyn with a fake Indigo?
Gerry: Although none of the others knew to show up with a gnome
Raelynn: And a fake Tiberius?
Raelynn: And yeah, the rest of us?
Gerry: Just a moment
Gerry: Lord Goplin, here is your guard
Gerry: Please be careful reentering the Mist, I do hope that the Governor can help you if you need anything
Gerry: Look for Sundown if you suffer any ill effects
Gerry: Please Countess come inside
Raelynn: Err, I thought he did accounting?
Branwyn: Thank you
Gerry: Bows to the Lord
Gerry: waits for him to be gone
Gerry: Is it really you Countess?
Branwyn: Of course it is!
Branwyn: You have seen me. Who else could I be?
Gerry: As Lord Goplin said there have been others who tried
Gerry: They looked like you
Raelynn: Did they know not to ask for honey?
Gerry: they just did not have the right stories
Gerry: grins at Rae
Raelynn: smiles back
Gerry: Lord Ilero will be relieved to have you home
Branwyn: How ... how long have we been gone?
Gerry: I am certain that Jilly will too
Gerry: Oh
Branwyn: To us we have been gone but a few days
Gerry: what day is it?
Gerry: It is the 27th
Raelynn: Of....?
The date is See____se, 27th Fey (Winter), 357 SKR
Young Moon's phase is New Moon
Old Moon's phase is Waxing Gibbous
The time is 8:20 AM
Craigh: Huh. I wonder if I've outlived any of my enemies?
Raelynn: You had enemies?
Branwyn: 6 years!!!
Bixi Fizzlebang: How many enemies did you have?
Branwyn: Tiberius! The children! We have to get home right away
Branwyn: Now!!
Gerry: Well I think they are ok
Branwyn: They must think we are dead!
Gerry: Jilly has been handling things quite well
Gerry: actually Jilly insisted you were not
Gerry: but she was
Branwyn: They are MY children!
Gerry: restless
Gerry: Yes Countess
Craigh gives Bixi a 'later' gesture.
Branwyn: I don't want Jilly handling things
Gerry: If there is anything I can do
Raelynn: Um, maybe spread the word the real Countess is back?
Branwyn: I have to go. You all can stay for a while but I need to go home
Raelynn: Um, I don't if you need anything, but we can go for... moral support?
Bixi Fizzlebang: As long as Gerry is ok, and that jerk outside isn't giving him trouble, I'm happy to go back with you
Branwyn: [CHECK] Constitution (vs. Target 12) [SUCCESS by 0] [d20 = 12]
Bixi Fizzlebang: [CHECK] Constitution (vs. Target 12) [SUCCESS by 4] [d20 = 8]
Raelynn: [CHECK] Constitution (vs. Target 13) [FAILURE by 6] [d20 = 19]
Craigh: [CHECK] Constitution (vs. Target 9) [SUCCESS by 3] [d20 = 6]
Indigo: [CHECK] Constitution (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 2] [d20 = 11]
N'laea: [CHECK] Constitution (vs. Target 15) [FAILURE by 5] [d20 = 20]
Raelynn: barely catches N'laea before she passes out and nearly passes out herself
Bixi Fizzlebang: Gerry, you're ok here?
Gerry: Certainly
Gerry: and I think it will only get better from here now that Branwyn is really back
Bixi Fizzlebang: Ok then, we'll try to visit soon! Thank you!
Bixi Fizzlebang: follows the others into the mist
So the group goes OUT onto the road
Licornah: [CHECK] Constitution (vs. Target 11) [FAILURE by 8] [d20 = 19]
Raelynn: I miss that feast....
so the group breaks out into the Mist and the elves fall sick
so Branwyn and Tiberius go rushing over the (new) roadway towards the Manor House
Craigh will stay with the elves.
Jilly: (Hearing the noise in the main hall as Branwyn and Tiberius come rushing in) WHO is making that racket! DAL and DE you better not be back so soon!
Jilly: Comes out
Branwyn: DEMI! DAHLIA!
Jilly: Jaw drops
Jilly: Then laughs
Branwyn: Jilly! We're home
Jilly: THISTLE!!!!! You did not tell me it was today!
Branwyn: How are the children?
Jilly: RUNS to Branwyn and HUGS her
Thistle: No but I TOLD you they'd be back!
Branwyn: Hugs Jilly tight
Branwyn: I'm so sorry
Jilly: Yes Of course they were coming back, I said I would go get them if they did not come home soon
Jilly: You said they were happy, so I
Thistle: But you never told me how....
HUGS Branwyn again
Jilly: So
Jilly: Looking at Thistle
Thistle: I told you.
Ilero Sauscha: clears his throat. Hope it you. Getting tired of tossing fakes into cells or executing t'em.
Thistle: grins
Jilly: Looks back at Branwyn
Jilly: OH NO, Where is Indigo!
Thistle: Illero's been really good at it!
Branwyn: Ilero!
Jilly: I mean the others too but Indigo, .....
Branwyn: I'm so glad to see you! And Thistle
Branwyn: Oh Indigo is back with Craigh and Bixi escorting the elves. They all got sick
Thistle: finally gets up to hug her
Ilero Sauscha nods and smiles, although he tries to suppress it some. Gots ask a question first.
Branwyn: Where are the children?
Branwyn: looks at Ilero
Jilly: Off chasing after a lost cow
Thistle: Pfft, just show me your palm.
Ilero Sauscha: We bot' has cup of feat'er quills on our desks. How many in each cup?
Branwyn: smiles
Branwyn: Four
Ilero Sauscha finally relaxes and smiles for real.
Jilly: WAPS Ilero with a spoon
Jilly: You knew it was her
Ilero Sauscha: 'Bout time.
Branwyn: People were really trying to impersonate me?
Jilly: OH yes!
Branwyn: How would that even be possible?
Jilly: The queen put out a reward for your return
Thistle: They sucked at it.
Branwyn: laughs
Ilero Sauscha: Two looked like you, t'ree claimed to be your “messengers”
Jilly: Well that was before Ilero took over
Ilero Sauscha: Hye t'ink we still gots one in t'e dungeon.
Jilly: The first year or so was not too bad
Jilly: She is so grumpy Ilero,
Branwyn: But they wouldn't have known my spells
Ilero Sauscha: Just like old times, Jilly.
Jilly: One of them tried to say they were hit on the head
Thistle: Uh, well they were... after.....
Jilly: Dah is very pretty
Branwyn: Dragon Fen?
Jilly: and rumor has it that the Queen is looking to marry her to one of her sons
Branwyn: She's just a baby
Jilly: Dem is going to have babies if he is not careful
Ilero Sauscha shrugs. “Politics. And time passed.”
Jilly: Shur needs to keep an eye on him
Jilly: SIX YEARS
Thistle: Oh let him have his fun.
Jilly: HOW could you be gone for six years!
Branwyn: It was the Elf lands! They have no sense of time whatsoever
Ilero Sauscha nods towards Jilly. “His goot question.”
Thistle: She went with ELVES, Jilly. What did you expect? I told you!
Branwyn: I'm never going back there
Jilly: Did you have a grand adventure?
Branwyn: We were only there a few days and we come back to ... this!
Jilly: So you did not even have an adventure?
Jilly: Is that why Indigo needs to help the Elves?
Branwyn: I'll let Indigo tell you all the gory details. We were in a giant fortress basement full of bugbears and giants
Branwyn: We brought back much treasure though
Thistle: Wait, I thought you said Elfland?
Jilly: A giant fortress sounds complicated,
Branwyn: Yes apparently everyone lives in elf land except humans
Branwyn: Orc, ogres, dwarves,
Jilly: Bugbears? was Billy there?
Branwyn: I wish! None to speak with
Thistle: Seriously?? Ugh, I'm never going to visit an elven city at this rate!
Jilly: I suppose not
Jilly: I did not think Elves had cities, Shi always talks about treetops
Thistle: She says there's a market on the ground for visitors but she still won't take me!
Jilly: How long do you think Indigo will take ?
Branwyn: We returned the cloak and the goddess' avatar thought we stole it and returned it because ... I have no idea. Then they gave us a quest in the giant stronghold
Jilly: You had to stay in case I had to go rescue them
Thistle: Hmph.
Branwyn: As long as it takes to drag three Mist sick elves down the road?
Jilly: We should get dinner ready
Ilero Sauscha rolls his eyes, looking as if he's heard that statement all too often.
Jilly: The Queen is very happy with Lord Ilero
Jilly: nods at Branwyn
Thistle: But he hates being away from his tower all the time.
Branwyn: Of course she is. She always like Ilero
Branwyn: I am so sorry Ilero
Ilero Sauscha: Hye *very* glad you back.
Jilly: OH wait till Snee tells you about the Silver mine
Branwyn: Has Nevin driven you insane with all the morning meetings?
Ilero Sauscha: Your t'rone not very comfortable.
Nevin Ognorn: coughs
Branwyn: chuckles
Ilero Sauscha: Hye just ignore him when too much. Drive him crazy.
Nevin Ognorn: You wear it well Lord Ilero
Branwyn: Hello Nevin. It is good to see you
Ilero Sauscha shrugs nonchalantly and nods in thanks.
Nevin Ognorn: Thistle you need to go gather the children please
Nevin Ognorn: I am certain that De and Dah will be back soon
Branwyn: Yes please!
Nevin Ognorn: and our four are anxious for your lessons
Thistle: Wait why is it my job still? Isn't that what Jilly is for?
Nevin Ognorn: They are insisting that Aunty Thistle teach them again about the lines
Branwyn: Four?
Ilero Sauscha: T'e curse of competence, T'istle.
Thistle: Insisting because you insist...
Thistle: sticks her tongue out at Ilero and goes to get them
Jilly: They are a handful but I think that Kelly is becoming a decent cook
Nevin Ognorn: I wish they could use that energy for writing and not just that hand waving
Jilly: Go upstairs, your rooms are just as you left them
Jilly: I will send for you for dinner
Jilly: and we will all celebrate
Ilero Sauscha: Hye send patrol out to get t'e elves.
Jilly: I do hope they are home in time
Branwyn: But ...
Jilly: Jilly looks at Branwyn
Branwyn: I want to be here when the children come back
Jilly: It will be a wonderful surprise for them
Jilly: They know to be back for dinner
Branwyn: Will it? What if they are angry?
Jilly: and Ancien will watch over them
Jilly: Laughs
Jilly: They are going to be
Jilly: But they will be happy too
Branwyn: All right. We can go change and we'll be back down.
Branwyn: Thank you Jilly
Ilero Sauscha steps out to find a guard and have him send a wagon to the Inn and pick up a band of sick elves with a halfling escort, plus miscellaneous others.
Time passes and the group all gathers for dinner, except for the sick elves who need their rest.
Jilly: So I would have made something nicer for all of us if Thistle had told me we were celebrating today
Jilly: But I do have a nice ham
Indigo: All your food is good Jilly!
Jilly: and we brought out some good roasted roots
Thistle: You didn't ask for an EXACT date.
Ilero Sauscha: Hyou not made bad food yet.
Indigo: Roots?
Thistle: But I definitely could have told you if you did. Yep.
Indigo: I take that back
Jilly: Places steaming potatoes and turnips in front of Indigo with butter and spices
Jilly: If you think the food where you were is better I can take this back
Indigo: No thanks!
Indigo: takes a big whiff
Indigo: This is good
Indigo: grins
Jilly: gently taps him with a spoon
Nevin Ognorn: We have the good wine this evening
Nevin Ognorn: for a toast
Nevin Ognorn: distributes glasses all around
Thistle: Yessss
Nevin Ognorn: Hands one half full to each of the kids
Nevin Ognorn: A full one to Thistle
Nevin Ognorn: To the return of the Countess!!!!!
Nevin Ognorn: CHEERS
Branwyn: drinks gratefully
Branwyn: Thank you. It is good to be back
Thistle: quietly, Wow, he's really happy. I don't think he believed me....
Tiberius Branadarus: I never thought being home would be so different
Branwyn: Nevin, you will send the necessary letters and announcements?
Nevin Ognorn: I already have
Branwyn: I know. It is so strange
Nevin Ognorn: I asked Kenna to send a message
Ilero Sauscha hoists a toast and drinks to it.
Nevin Ognorn: Jennivive will be most relieved
Branwyn: laughs
Ilero Sauscha: Oh gods. Hope she not visit again.
Nevin Ognorn: The Queen had said if anything happened to Lord Ilero that she would be in charge
Ilero Sauscha: Hye been watching back ever since.
Branwyn: There are many favors I owe her that she likely thought she was not going to be able to collect on
Nevin Ognorn: Since her accident she has not been as nice as before
Branwyn: She would have given Dragon Fen to Jennevive?
Nevin Ognorn: Only as regent
Branwyn: Accident? What happened?
Nevin Ognorn: Nods to Dahlia,
Nevin Ognorn: She will always be your heir
Jilly: I think that someone spilled acid on her
Branwyn: Oh no!
Dahlia Branadarus: shifts uncomfortably
Branwyn: Where is she? I must write to her
Jilly: I think she is with the Queen
Branwyn: At Jistille?
Jilly: They are in the south I last heard
Ilero Sauscha: Small favors.
Jilly: Jistille is very quiet
Jilly: sighs
Branwyn: Araheal?
Jilly: Shakes her head
Ilero Sauscha: Was a little while 'go.
Branwyn: Ohhh ... I am so sorry. he was such a good man.
Branwyn: I will go there soon.
Jilly: Demitrius did very nicely at the funeral
Jilly: Howard has been helping there, with your old tower
Branwyn: nods
Branwyn: I am sure he has been very helpful
Jilly: I need to go to the desserts
Nevin Ognorn: Looks at Howard,
Howard Plum: It has been quite distressing
Ilero Sauscha: He done good t'ough.
Howard Plum: A great burden but now that you are home, it shall be better
Tiberius Branadarus: Demi, tell me, how is your bow work coming? did you keep up with your swimming?
Thistle: *I offered to help, but he said no.
Tiberius Branadarus: Dah, did you ever get that curse worked out to stop the mice from getting into your books?
Dahlia Branadarus: Yes, father, but it's, um, well, I'm still working out the new side effects from that.
Branwyn: Curse? We do not cast curses!
Dahlia Branadarus: rolls eyes, It's not a real curse, mother.
Branwyn: We can look at your book tomorrow
Tiberius Branadarus: Grins
Tiberius Branadarus: I bet she is able to do a lot more now
Branwyn: Hmmm
Dahlia Branadarus: nods
Tiberius Branadarus: Was there any problems while we were gone?
Tiberius Branadarus: Remember Indigo when we fought that dragon turtle
Ilero Sauscha chuckles.
Indigo: Seems easier than what we just did
Ilero Sauscha: You miss t'e hurricane.
Tiberius Branadarus: Wow it feels
Tiberius Branadarus: what?
Tiberius Branadarus: What is a hurricane?
Indigo: A new dessert?
Ilero Sauscha: Big twisty storm, ripped up bunch of trees in Valoris.
Ilero Sauscha: Winds strong enough to pick up houses.
Indigo: Wow!
Jilly: We rebuilt all of them
Shi'Nynze: And replanted trees.
Jilly: Someone said they might be one of those ghost houses that Indigo found
Indigo: The house tried to eat someone?
Jilly: Yes
Indigo: Did you kill it?
Smiles at Shi
Jilly: Oh yes Indigo they saw the house picked up and moving in the wind and thought it was one of those that you found
Jilly: I do not think the house tried to eat anyone
Jilly: It did fall on top of a cow
Ilero Sauscha: Almost land on someone, t'ough.
Jilly: OR at least the cow was not there afterwards
Indigo: That's not good. Hope you killed the house
Ilero Sauscha: Hit not survive landing intact.
Jilly: It was in lots of little pieces
Jilly: The lighthouse was in good shape,
Tiberius Branadarus: That sounds sort of fun
Tiberius Branadarus: Well we did have fun didn't we love
Indigo: Yes, but I didn't know at what cost
Branwyn: Yes, but I didn't know at what cost
Branwyn: Look at our little ones. They are so big now!
Tiberius Branadarus: grins, both of them are going to be able to come adventuring soon
Branwyn: Before we left I had Demi sitting on the table in front of me
Tiberius Branadarus: warm smiles
Branwyn: I could carry him
Branwyn: sighs
Tiberius Branadarus: I can still carry you, can't I Demi
Ilero Sauscha: You still gots teen years to enjoy.
Demitrius Branadarus [Gnomish]: [Translation] I can walk by my self
Branwyn: looks at him
Branwyn: What was that??
Demitrius Branadarus: That was gnomish, I have been practicing
Demitrius Branadarus: A bunch of us have been out in the swamps together
Branwyn: The swamps! With who? Doing what?
Demitrius Branadarus: Exploring, fishing, hanging out
Branwyn: All right
Branwyn: I'm going to be worried about you both for a while. I need to catch up
Ilero Sauscha: Hit been helpful having him.
Ilero Sauscha nods.
Ilero Sauscha: What was Elf Land like?
Branwyn: You have all have done so much for us while we have been gone. Is there anything I can do to repay you all?
Shi'Nynze: It was not for long.
Thistle: Pfft, like you have a good gauge on that.
Indigo: It was pretty until we got to the giant place. It's weird. I thought it would all be elves and butterflies, but it was giants and bugbears and then some elves that froze us instead of talking to us until we did what they wanted
Ilero Sauscha: Sound so civilized.
Indigo: shrugs
Indigo: Other places were probably nicer
Indigo: We didn't see those
Shi'Nynze: It does not sound like you were in Aravaith proper.
Ilero Sauscha: Visited t'e slums of Elf afterlife?
Indigo: Probably not. We landed in a forest and then stumbled into the goddess. She must have been watching and the giant fortress wasn't far from there
Indigo: laughs
Shi'Nynze: nods
Shi'Nynze: I I'm not sure I'd say that sounds like... slums but...
The layer itself is slightly convex, so that while Olympus and Arvandor both occupy the highest pinnacles of land within their realms, neither citadel can see the other. Away from the settled and claimed areas, the layer grows wild quickly. Many fell beasts and creatures such as giants and cyclops roam the lands to challenge those who adventure within.
Indigo: But when we had the feast at the end a whole lot of elf lords showed up. Not sure where they came from
Indigo: Elves seem to appear when they want to over there
Shi'Nynze: Did you... ..did you meet anyone interesting there?
Ilero Sauscha: Were t'ey friendly or haughty elfs?
Indigo: They were really friendly!
Indigo: Raelynn told most of our story and then others jumped in and all the elves cheered and gave us gifts
Youtargim: It was a grand adventure
Ilero Sauscha: Umm.. gifts from fae lords? Kid stories always say t'ose come wit' prices.
Shi'Nynze: That sounds ...wonderful
Indigo: Well if the goddess Sehanine Moonbow and her avatar are interesting I guess so Shi
Indigo: grins
Indigo: And Lilifane?
Shi'Nynze: small smiles, Yes, but she is not the only one that'd interest me there.
Indigo: I got a potion I don't think it comes with a price
Indigo: I don't think Solonor was there
Indigo: Or they didn't announce themselves
Youtargim: Namsut says all magic comes with a price
Shi'Nynze: Not that's not... well, I am glad you enjoy a feast, at least. I am certain it was memorable.
Ilero Sauscha: Who Namsut?
Youtargim: My Princess' genie
Thistle: And her lover!
Thistle: You can't forget that part. Rae told me about them!
Youtargim: It is not as scandalous as you might think
Youtargim: Yes
Branwyn: Oh you have been gone from them for longer than you imagined. You should write them soon. They might want you back Youtargim
Thistle: So I should believe you, random stranger I barely know, over Rae who I know *slightly* better?
Youtargim: I will have to find a way
Youtargim: I am not sure how much Rae understands genies
Youtargim: Or how we live in the Land of Fate
Ilero Sauscha shrugs. “Me neit'er”
Youtargim: The Countess has spent as much time with Namsut as Rae did
Youtargim: so perhaps she can help you understand
Youtargim: I am grateful we are here
Thistle: No but she understands love. We talked about it a LOT, um, wow, years ago?
Youtargim: and Jilly's wonderful feast
Youtargim: Love is a wonderful conversation
Youtargim: blinks
Thistle: Eh, I got bored of the romance novels. I like the thrillers now.
Youtargim: I need some sleep I think, I should know more words than just wonderful
Youtargim: Is that three times?
Branwyn: smiles
Ilero Sauscha: Not counting.
Thistle: I started tuning you out....
Youtargim: Have you read of the 1,000 and one nights?
Ilero Sauscha: No. Sounds long.
Youtargim: lots of love and adventure there
Youtargim: clever wit
Youtargim: and daring escapes
Thistle: No, but I just finished “The Polishing” which was super creepy and interesting.
Youtargim: I will be glad for you to tell me about it in the coming days
Thistle: looks at Branwyn trying to figure out if she has to
Youtargim: I will go rest now
Youtargim: There are many things to think on
Branwyn: Goodnight Youtargim
Youtargim: I will return in the morning Countess
Ilero Sauscha: waits for him to leave. “Who t'at again”
Thistle: shrugs
Thistle: and turns back to Indigo
Branwyn: He was sent to help us with languages. I was thinking of going on a quest in the desert
Thistle: whispers, “Shi was asking about her family, not which gods you met. Ellidor or Ruavain or any names like that”
Ilero Sauscha: Looking for what?
Indigo: Ohhhh ... ummm
Indigo: They didn't really introduce themselves
Indigo: I didn't hear those names.
Indigo: I'm sorry
Thistle: still quiet, “It's okay, we just won't tell her. She didn't expect it anyways. I think... maybe? Well at least she didn't go with you.”
Indigo: quietly, “but if she did she could have asked. We were all at a table and the elves were all at theirs and only the goddess and her people were really talking to us directly”
Thistle: shakes head vehemently, “The other elves were going to come back, but shi wouldn't have. That I know this time.”
Indigo: Okay ... they did say the elves didn't have to leave
Thistle: Shi didn't believe me when I said they'd be back. She knew you all would be, but she didn't think they would be.
Indigo: Maybe they aren't done here yet
Thistle: ANYWAYS what are you all doing now? Resting?
Indigo: Probably. We have to go visit everybody and tell them we're alive
Thistle: Dragon turtles? Something about a genie?
Indigo: That'll take a while
Thistle: glancing at Shi to make sure she didn't overhear and obviously changing subjects
Indigo: Is Regor still locked up at Jistille?
Ilero Sauscha: How you want handle taking back over? Queen may want to get involved too.
Branwyn: I am not sure that anything needs to happen does it?
Branwyn: We're back and we'll send notice
Thistle: shrugs
