Eskon

Eskon examines his rented horse briefly, seeing that his companions are in a hurry to get underway. He mounts and horse and settles comfortably into the saddle. Eskon takes the reins and comfortably guides the horse in the right direction. The horse breaks into a modest trot to catch up with Warren and Cepheus. Eskon gives Jik'tu a quick glance to make sure he is following as well.

Jik'tu's horse gorans under the combined weight of the orc and his equipment (about 350lbs) but dillegently sticks to the road with the others. Jik'tu decides to have his crossbow sitting accross his lap in case things get interesting. He looks over the group and takes a mental assessment as much as he can mentally do anything that is.

Dis purdy man is funny to watch and da liddle one seems ok too but he'd have to keep an eye on their leader....

He rides up and says....

Well den liddle mens why don you sing us a song,

Jik'tu heard dat you liddle uns sing all dem times...


<chorttleing laughter>

What bout you purdy mens you know some songs fer dis road?

Jik'tu likes de songs sometimes...

Cepheus Beren Boomhill

Ahh yes. I am no Bard and do not play the Harp but I guess one such as yourself my large friend cares not. Cepheus <<laughing at himself>> breaks into a chorus

Ahh the suns at our backs
as we follow well worn tracks
The four from Orussus journey fro'
fires burn low
the winds do blow
off to Allimon we do go.

Eskon

Eskon hums the tune, a relatively popular one. He rides up to get closer to Warren. "Sorry we haven't a chance to speak much. I was in negotiations for another job when you started recruiting so I wasn't paying attention to the details of your endeavor. What exactly are we doing? I know it involves escorting a woman but little beyond that."

You are riding down the road, passing in front of the Road warden office on the road of Allimon. One of the rangers that are in function presently looks at you and seems a bit surprised to see such a disparate group.

Warren let his horse move beside Eskon's one. "The tournement will starts soon. We asked the wizard Rilithorne to get us some items. He usually lives in a tower in Orussus, but last years, some event had happen in it, and the wizard was saved by a few adventurers. The wizard decided to clean his tower from all the wards the last occupant had put in it and then do some renovation. It took him a year and when I came to fetch my command, he left a message as what he was gone to her niece house, in Allimon.

Here niece is Selera, the best cook of Allimon, and she has been invited to the Winged Flute to help the organization, as the Performance contest will happen there. It will be overcrowded and the Inn want to offer great meal to important people that will come. We were suppose to send a few guards to escort her, but as we need the command now, I have been sent by Reynold to go take it and by the same time escort her. And as our men are presently on other tasks, I was allowed to recruit a few more men."


You continue to travel when at a moment, you see a small village drawing at the horizon. You see on a red and pink sky the sun going down, almost touching the ground. The shadows of the trees are now twice the height of the tree itself.

"About time. We should be there in less than an hour"

Cepheus

Cepheus brings his pony up beside Warrens horse

A pleasant ride in the country. A welcome change from the city streets of Orussus. Is there any reason we should expect trouble in Allimon?

"No, I don't expect any trouble, but even if lately the roads have become safer, we never know what we can find on it. If we have no badluck, it will have been a cakewalk and an easy pay for you."

Your group pass in front of a few farm. The glowing disk in the sky is now dissapearing behind an hill. The sky had taken deeper tone of red. and on the east, the sky start to take a shade of deep blue, almost black. You see a larger building a little bit farther the road.

"That will be where we will rest tonight. But before, I'll ask you to go meet Rilithorne at Selera's house. She is living farther down the road. You'll recognize the building easily as it is the house behind the bakery. I'll follow you once I've reserved and paid the rooms. Eskon, can I give you the charge of that?"

Jik'tu looks warrily at Warren and one can tell there is resentment in his
demeanor at not being picked to be in chrage of the mission.

Jik'tu makes a loud sigh and a <hurumph> as he dismounts his horse. The horse seems enlivened by this and does the quick little side step dance that horses do sometimes after being unburdened.

Jik'tu shoves his elbow into the horses ribs so he can loosen the saddle and says...

You dum beast aint de only ones be happy to end our walk,

You bony back and nag of a gait make'd me sore too...

I bet if you had some names they'd be slow and ugly...too


Then turning to face the purddy man -

So you gone go get dis womans den by yourself huh,

Maybe dat be good casue once she sees Jik'tu she fall in love -

Then yelling out loud to no one in particular...

He is hoping to start a scuffle among the towns children over the money. Oh how he likes to see children grow and develop inot young adults.

Eskon

Eskon dismounts and throws a silver to one of the boys. "Please take care of her," he says to the young man, referring to his rented horse. Eskon then he turns to Jik'tu.

"I see no reason why we call can't go. Get to know our charge before the trip. I think Warren just wants me to do the talking. I'm from this area so other Orussian people can understand me easier. You're from far away so your accent is harder to understand for some people." Eskon smiles at the orc, who towers over him. "This house is next to the bakery and this girl is said to be some cook. We can probably get some good meats or at least some fresh bread.

Eskon extends his arm to Cepheus. "Sorry we didn't get to meet on the road. Name's Eskon Bharris. You interested in coming with us to meet Rilithorne?"

Eskon waves to Warren. "Thanks for the room. We'll meet you over at Selera's."
