Topic: Peradyse Lost
Subject: Brianna


As Brianna took the horses to the blacksmith Xuor came over to help her. "I really appreciate your help, Xuor, Shadowbane can be a handful if he wants to and quite too often for me he wants to." She strokes the stallions soft muzzle, since right now he is quiet and controllable.

They tied up the horses outside the blacksmith's shop and Brianna went in to discuss what she wanted done. The blacksmith had his forge all fired up and ready to go. "I need you to check all the shoes put in extra nails and cinch them down tight. Any thin shoes strip them off and put on new shoes since we are going to be traveling over the mountains."

The blacksmith came out and started right away. Brianna knew they wanted to got on the road as quickly as possible. Brianna left Xuor holding one horse for the blacksmi as she drew her sword off her back and started to to practice first with one long sword right hand then left, and then with two and once. She whirld and slashed and stabed and cut the air with her strokes..

When she caught sight of him looking her directions she asked, "You want to practice with me I could use the workout."

Later Xuor brought up the matter of Lorae leaving her to deal with the soldiers the night before. "you right I am uncomfortable with that sort of thing. I would have learned that if.... Well, I never got a chance to My life got lipped topsy-turvy and it simply became a matter of survival for me. Diplomacy was never a part of my life to survive. SO yes I am uncomfortable in those types fo situations. I will be glad to ask you for you assistance in that sort of matter if it comes up again.

If he he joins to spar She has him his blades and she used one of hers against him. if he does not she just smiles and continues until she worls out all the kinks and is thoroughly warmed up with a fine sheen of seat o her face. Finished she wipes down her blades and sheaths them on her back

Brianna was bent over examining the freshly shod hoof the blacksmith had just finished the last horse, her red mare, Sunrise, IT was then she heard a stange man's speak behind her. She straightened quickly but withno hurry since Xuor was right there at her back or near enough. Brianna turned in one fluid motion thogh to regard the stranger. “Not a ma’am, I am Brianna, Brianna Stormrider. This IS my friend Xuor.” She says looks him over assessing him.

When she looks back up into his eyes You can see that they are a startling golden color with dark rings around the irises, very like an eagle’s eyes set in fair featured face well tanned by the sun. Her flaming red hair is striking, caught back with a lather headband to flow down her back part way down it is tied with a leather thong to keep it from getting in her face as she bends over. “Greetings Devon Worcslayer, I’ve heard of Tiverton, but I am not sure where it is either. I don’t come from around here. Sorry. Xuor, do you know where it is?”

Brianna is a human woman stand well over 6 feet tall perhaps closer to 6’3". A full grown young woman and you can see it in her eyes and not so much by any other sign of age on her. They are cool and controlled, for the moment. She is well muscled but not bulky. It looks like she could be a blacksmith but the twins long swords on her back, the lonf dagger at her waist two shorter bladed knives one in each of her high soft boots that are laced up to just below her knew. Her tight leather pants and soft tunic and vest are well cut of quality material and stout wide leather belt at the waist holding the long bladed dagger in its sheath. There nothing fancy or decorative about any on her cloths except her cloak. It is a rich green furzed wool hooded cloak with trim on the edges and embroidery and lined in fur. It is the only really fine garment she is wearing. You can see bracer on her forearms since her sleeves are rolled back but nothing else is remarkable about what she is wearing.

However the horses she is holding are another story all together. Large warhorses without a doubt though there is one or two lighter, finer animal amongst them. They are all of the highest quality. The largest is a huge black stallion that is tied off separately from the mares and the gelding she is holding.

“If you’re in a hurry, you wcould go over at the inn. There are several people from a variety of different places. They might know where Tilverton is and give you directions. If you have a bit of time We will be done here shortly and take you their My friends and I stayed there last night. Well, that is as soon as the blacksmith gets two more nails into this last shoe.”

Topic: Of Dragons and Men.
Subject: Trillion


The tour though the brass building was very interesting to Trillion. However, she was undecided about the relationship of dragons and men and whose fault it was for the war between them. She personally did not have enough information to decide who was right and who was wrong or anything in between. She felt that it was in the in between where the truth truly lay not at either extreme.

Trillion regard the Father as he explains about paying. “To do that would not be fair to the proprietor of this establishment. I will pay full price for myself and for you, the discounted price. It is only proper that I do so. “ Trillion is a very proper person in many ways when it come to what is just and fair. It is her nature to be that way. And she had learned It was not good to go against one’s own nature. “I will hope it is not too expensive,“ she says with a smile.”

Dinner was good better than good it was excellent and the the conversation though light added to the enjoyment of her evening meal as did the company.

Trillion gazed about the room every so often enjoying her favorite pastime of analyzing people. She would try to guess who and what they were and why they were here, using the clothes, manner of speech, if she could hear them, facial expression, and hand gestures, when she couldn’t and their demeanor. It was at one of these times she became aware of a movement beyond the room outside a window.

For a moment almost frozen in time she saw and huge wave hovering above the horizon, a ship want swept along almost in the center of that wave. The wave then crested over the ship and crashed down over it as it swept off the ocean onto land finally crashing in the forest. Distant screams could be heard and then they were overwhelmed by the screams and cries of consternation of the other patrons who had witnessed the horrific event.

Trillion stood quickly ignoring her food. She threw down coins hoping it was enough. “I must go and see if I can help. I hope this is enough, if not I will return. If there is any left hold it for me I will try to locate you at the temple of Helm. ”

Racing out of the restaurant Trillion casts invisible on herself and takes to the air on wings, hurrying to where she thought the ship had been cast down.

Amberlyn's arrows are proving ineffective against the Wights. SHE is left with no option but to sling her bow and draw her sword. "BY the Light these undead must be laid to res,t "It is not their fault that some evilness has raise them up," but what remains is soulless and evil regardless of what they were living.

Let us move together in groups to flank a creature and take it down." Amberlyn calls out. Taking the hilt of her sword in hand she draws it smoothly from its sheath ion one quick motion and moves towards the nearest wight. With a caution for what she knows wights are capable of she none-the-less moves forward to do combat with them. "The Light helps those who help themselves.

Subject: Isilmiri


Isilmiri nods to Ocyari and the innkeeper to show that she understood.

“We look forward to dinner,” Isilmiri says clearly to the innkeeper, “…especially one I did not have to cook.” She adds with a smile.

After her simple meal, Isilmiri stands and looks around to the other. “I am going up for a bath , my prayers and then bed. Good night to you all. We shall see what the morning brings .”and she give Ocyari a significant look—but only that. Trillion could easily wait until morning to hear what Ocyari might find out from the innkeeper.

Isilmiri heads up to her room expect that her bath would be up there already. Though she hoped the water would be brought up hot. If or when the water arrives she save one bucket out of the bath for rinsing off after bathing and especially her hair. She will give the boy three coppers for his efforts and tell him to come bath in 10minutes for the water. Unfortunately water did not stay warm for long. Isilmiri sigh softly in remembrance of a hot springs pool deep in the forest near her home, a favorite spot for a long soak and relaxation. It was peaceful and tranquil place with the sounds of the forest all around her, birds trilling softly with their various calls was like music. It was even more beautiful when the breezes rustled leaves and needles and the spring bubbled up from the depths, Ah well, that was far away from her but the fond memory was precious connection to home and family.

After upbraiding her hair, Isilmiri brushed out any snarls quickly since she is planning on washing it. She stopped into the tub but did not sit right away, Instead she stood and used a cloth with soap and scrubbed thoroughly and then rinsed off with a bit of the bucket of clean water. Only then did she recline in the tub for a soak. Her last act was to wash her hair twice and rinse it finally with the last bucket of clean water she had saved for this.

Climbing out of the cooling water and dresses in soft tunic and pants, and brushed out her hair while sitting near the fire in the hearth. After her hair dry, she rebraided it efficiently in it fours part braid and tied off the end with a leather thong. She gave the thong a tight twist and knot to hold it for the night.

Isilmiri took out her prayer book and unwrapped it from it oilskin wrapper and read for a while before offering her daily prayers to her Deity.

When the rap on the door came, Isilmiri rose gracefully and let the boy in to take the water and bath away. She finished her nightly routine, putting her book away in oilskin wrappings and waxing the seams. When she was done away she left everything ready for the morning, slipped a dagger under her pillow and put her sword leaning on the bed near her head she wedged and extra dagger under the door, to make it harder for anyone to force their way in.

With all of that taken of, Isilmiri went though simple pre-meditation steps that helped sleep to come quickly--which it did.

Subject: Trillion


Trillion followed th old priest to the magnificent brass building. The ten sided edifice sparkled like facets in the sun that shone above it. It was a beautiful day to walk around outside but her curiosity about his place drew her on.

As Father Lekain walks into the building through it's large oaken double door, he smiles warmly at the guards. "Good afternoon. Don't worry about the new one - she's with me. Put it on my tab." Beckoning to you, he smiles "Come, let's go. There are many things to see."

Trillion was pleasantly surprised when the man paid her fee for her. “You will have to allow me to buy you lunch when we are done here,” Trillion extends the invitation for his graciousness. She noted the different hallways and the signs posted at each. She contemplate the seven signs thinking about which one most interested her . There were always heroes and villains in most stories like this one, but two stood out--History and Melios?.

"I am quite interested in the History. Then I can perhaps better understand the whole of this place.” She states. "After that if I have time I would like to explore what they have on Melios." However do not let me keep you too late However you just remind me about lunch. Sometimes I get so taking up with what I am studying that I am not aware of the passage of time. Trillion offers with as smile."

"Do you have a favorite part of the place. Anywhere I can learn more about what this is all about.?" asks Trillion

Isilmiri nods to the innkeeper. "I am certainly glad to here there are no haunting spirits about. I thank you for your words." Isilmiri spoke kindly to the man with genuine smile.

"I would like to order hot water for a bath. Our trip has been long and hard. When it is ready please let me know." {Use Diplomacy (+4)}

"Brother Perrin, how long have you lived at the monastery." she asked conversationally. Wanting to make the man feel better included in their group, if they were travel together and more importantly depend on each other. {Use Diplomacy (+4)}

Looking into the eyes of the Drow priestess Bronwyn replies, "Yes I can now say I have met a Drow that is not an enemy rather a woman of good heart as your actions have proved."

Bronwyn's gase holds stedy on Aelistae's and she bobs a curtsy and sits back down. She does however glance over to Elendil just to see what she thinks abut Bronwyn's overture to the dark skinned elf, but Elendil seem preoccupied and soon left the table. She felt no need to follow her so she continued taking part in the celebratory dinner.

Before Brianna went to bed she sent Flame out to play guardian to those sleeping outside, "You keep a sharp eye or whatever you do. Little one."

Brianna woke early before the sun was fully over the horizon, as was usually with her. SHe goes out to the stables to get the horses checked out by the smith, just to make sure all the shoes were on tight and perhaps having extra nails put on to insure their security of those most important bits of metal on the horses hooves. Sharp rocks of the mountains were hard on horse shoes.

Brianna took one over at a time making sure that the war horse especially the stallions. Shadowbane she would take over last with the red mare It would keep him occupied that way.

While she waited for each horse she practiced her sword work just outside the smithy. first with one long sword and them with two. The smith looked over towards her as Brianna moves with great fluidity from one from to another. She had been well trained for sure. Suddenly startled he shook himself in surprise at being distracted. She was distracting He returned to his work keeping his eyes down on the shoes he was examining. She proceed to exchange each horse as he finished. finally she bring over Shadowbane and the red mare to have their shoes redone. Shadow bane was not cooperative have rarely known a farriers touch. Brinna had to keep him in hand the whole time.

Subject: Bronwyn


Bronwyn watch as the various members of the other group went forward to take up the cloak as symbol of the Order that Lord Bartholomew had created. She felt that it was well deserved by that group of people considering what they had done. While she had not interacted with them much since the end of the battle t hey all seemed so involved in what was going on cleaning the place up and not up to passing the time with a stranger. Of course to be honest nether had she gone very far to join them. She had needed time to keep apart and deal with her own thoughts and memories.

The dark Drow priestess was first to accept the cloak as emblem of Lord Bartholomew’s new Order of the Sacred Rose. Bronwyn had watched her move about the table to take up the cloak. Perhaps she would try again now that they had all gathered her to celebrate. As the woman moved back to her seat, Bronwyn rises to congratulate her, “I wish to congratulate you on what you have done here. I know my first reaction to you was…..ah………….well,,,,I was afraid you were the other one raised up from near death. I do wish to apologize for that erroneous assumption on my part.” The rest she left unspoken because it night be insulting to the woman standing before, like Bronwyn had never heard a good Drow.”

Bronwyn had been aware of an undercurrent between Elendil and the other group, and kind of felt caught in between and therefore had made no overtures to the others, keeping mostly to herself. in the days. but none the less she holds her hand out her hand, a bit uncertain ly, not knowing if it was something Drow knew about. But she did, as she was taught to behave politely, regardless. To do less would not be polite as she had learned manners.

It was to be hoped that these people, who had so help Lord Bart to gain his position were well rewarded considering the dangers they faced to so it. She had been out there and knew how scary it was with all the goblins and gnolls running around everywhere, never knowing form one moment to the next that they might have come across more goblins and gnolls or had them come across the two of them out there by themselves.

“Anyway, I think it is well deserved under the trying circumstances you all faced.”

Bronwyn rose for each of the others that accepted the cloak . It was only polite that each was treated the same as she had the Drow. Fair was fair.

The Holy City of Alimar | Year 593 NDE

Trillion Starheart follows the old man through the busy streets she had never sen so many people gathered so together in one place. He proves to a a font of information, and finaly introduce himself as a priest during her tour he mentioned

"Oh, and I'm terribly sorry, I fear I haven't introduced myself to you. I am Father Lekain, priest of Pelor in the Holy City of Alimar. I will be your guide for today, and will gladly join you for a bite to eat, when the time calls for it."

When the good father mention that they would do dinner later Trillion understood what was not said. In exchange for his “services” as a guide this day she know she would be the one footing the bill for dinner. So be it. A fair enough exchange and It was pleasant to be alble to learn about this place from someone who know it. She set about to learn as much as she could and she was a cheerful companion.

He exolaing about the large brass building "Now, as for where we are going. The Hall of Heroes was erected over 550 years ago. It was made in honour to celebrate the ten heroes which banished the dragons during the great war. He point them out as then got to the building
“Let's see, these are the heroes:

Morion, 'The Flame' , master of magic.
Elwood, 'The Panther', blade of truth.
Taori, 'The Wind', eye of the storm.
Shensing, 'The Shadow', watchful eye.
Mia, "The Eagle', master archer.
Baldorf, 'The Tiger', strength of good.
Marchand, 'The Unique', the half-dragon.
Asher, 'The Song', voice of reason.
Alexandra, 'The Scorpion', master of the blade.
Louise, 'The Breath of Life', miracle healer."

Trillion listened carefully and repeated each name and identification as he named them, It helped her to remembered what she heard.

??? It was my understanding that Elendil and Bronwyn would not get any share of loot form what went on in the keep. That is what was decided earlier by those of the original party.

A comment of the division is that Artanis should still have a share even if it is just hell for her. Intella, I was told was out of the shares too, and I take it so ws the Paladin and his entourage though about them I am not sure since they wee never mentioned.

What I would like to know is the exact account of what Fate gave Bronwyn besides the ring and letter.
