[QUOTE="Telsar, post: 1665027, member: 18837"] At Madame Brie’s, Loni looks at Accalon a bit confused, then realizes who he means. "Oh, you think Jovana needs comfort? Yes, I guess she does, but she feels so superior to me, I know I couldn't do anything for her." She looks a bit sad at that, but then smiles and says, "You're the one who needs my attention." She kisses him on the cheek and leads him upstairs. In one of the empty bedrooms (without a voyeur closet), Loni helps Accalon to undress and says "You were so very brave today. You saved us. And I don't think it was just for the money. I've seen how you look at me," she blushes at that, but then adds, "and at the other girls. I think you care about us." She lies down beside Accalon on the bed, her hands gently caressing him, careful not to touch any of the cuts and bruises. "Now... you just want to sleep? My mother used to sing me a lullaby. I'm not sure my voice will do it justice though." At the Inn, T’aria, looking much different than before, makes her way to the stables, and readies Shadow for travel. As she leads the horse out of the stall, a voice yells out to her “That ain’t your horse!” She turns to see a blonde human boy, perhaps 10 years old. He says “I seen the girl what brought in that horse, and you ain’t her.” Apparently T’aria’s disguise has worked too well. Before she deals with the boy, however, she notices, across the street and in the shadow of a building, the glint of crossbow bolt. The crossbow is aimed in the direction of her and the boy. [T’aria rolled Spot 17+6=23] [BTW, I don’t think any mention of the original groups horses has been made. Should we assume they took them to Madame Brie’s, or did you return to the Inn for them, or are they still at the Inn and you went by foot? Alicia would have to go by foot regardless unless a special mount was found.] Meanwhile, Aligor calls out to Boone in front of his antique’s shop. The human comes out with a dirty rag in his hand, apparently from cleaning something, and says “What are you doing here? You couldn’t have gotten in trouble that quickly!” Suddenly, something hits Aligor from behind, something that bursts open, covering the dwarf in a yellow goo. Even as the dwarf turns around to see who did this, the goo begins to harden, particularly around his feet, making walking, let alone running, impossible until the hardened gunk is scraped off. Boone says, “Aw, damn. Guess you could have at that.” [Aligor failed a Spot check to see his attacker. Was hit. Aligor rolled Reflex save 9+2=11, failed, to see if the goo stuck him to the ground.] The person responsible steps out from behind a cart fifty feet away where he had been hiding. He’s a tall man, with long black braided hair, wearing dark, loose fitting clothes with a number of odd symbols emblazoned on it. He says “Did you think you could betray Hex and get away with it? He knows you didn’t do the job he hired you for. He knows you set the authorities on him. And he knows you killed three of his men. Have anything to say before I collect the bounty on your head?” Not particularly waiting for a response, he holds his hands out, in a manner Aligor has seen often enough… the beginnings of someone casting a spell. [Characters by Initiative: Aligor, unhurt Boone, unhurt Bane, HPs:5/6 Wizard, unhurt Note: Bane will get back his one HP when he rests, but since he was guarding, he wasn't resting.] In the unnamed forest, north of Taeirn, the party members rest comfortably for a few hours. Alicia, not fitting in a tent, rests on the hard ground with one of the party’s extra bedrolls for a pillow. But at one point during a dream about her enjoyable time with the late Anton (Elorelei’s driver), she thinks she hears a loud rustling sound coming from outside the bedroom. But then her eyes pop open and she realizes she’s not in that bedroom. She still thinks she heard the noise, though. The others continue to sleep soundly in their tents. [Alicia rolled 19 on a default Listen check. Note, I had no idea if the party kept someone on watch. But with Alicia outside and everyone so tired, I assumed the party would expect any threats to attack her first anyway, and so not worry about a watch this one time.] [/QUOTE]
