Darling set her borrowed hat back on Cedric's head as she walked up behind him. It looked no worse for the wear and smelled faintly of the girl's perfume. She took a deep breath of the cool night air and put an arm each around Elms and Cedric as she sat down between them at the table. The...

Darling perched herself gingerly on the table and let her voice greet the ears of the battle weary men like a long lost love. She hummed a few haunting bars and felt the intoxicating effect of an entire room's attention. She paused for just a moment at the high point and let the silence taunt...

Darling was rather enjoying herself. The company here was lively and intelligent, and that beat the hell out of marching with dim-witted soldiers any day. Even this bird held a better conversation than some of the Bear's men. Things were looking up! She let Elms drape his arm around her to get...

"You two were bound for the battle? I missed nearly all of it myself, though I can't say I'm too upset about that." Darling cast her glance at Malaroc, "War is always worse than you imagine..." she let her stare linger on him and she felt a twinge of pity, seeing him wrestling with his demons...

Darling lay there comfortably for a few moments searching her mind for where she might have seen a brand like that, and why her new friend would be so focused on concealing it. "Something at the Lotus maybe?" She couldn't put her finger on it. Bardic Knowledge check to ID the brand on Elms'...

"It was such a marvelous beast! I must have been awestruck or Fallon would never have gotten me into the saddle. Who knew that old man could conjure such things?" She swallowed a few sips of the sweet brew before her and let a satisfied smile spread across her lips as the warmth of the spirits...

I'm okay with whatever. The only things I even kinda wanted to accomplish before the fast forward was to meet all the characters and maybe see if anyone fancied the leadership role while Lora was away... both of which can be done anywhere. As far as where to put Cedric, might I suggest that we...

Bummer, Gondsman. You should really try and make it work, I was looking forward to finally joining up with everyone. I never even found out why Lurik was cursing! :( Anyway, I hope you have a great batch of students and learn as much as they do! :D

Darling flitted around behind them, testing the weight of Elms' sword in her hand, giving a few thrusts in the air. She smiled to herself, knowing that the blade would be little use in her hands, but appreciating the gesture. A gnoll lay near them with an arrow protruding from it's fearsome...

I'll probably be able to do about once a day also. Twice a week for sure. :P

Darling tossed here hands in the air as the Dwarf and his party sped back into the fray. She watched for a moment before shrugging and turning back to the remaining force. "A man of action I suppose... anyway, message delivered." She went back to the spot where the Griffon had stood and...

Haven't heard from ML in a while... was she on vacation or something?

"Martomum, I assume." Darling said, turning to the dwarf and becoming more serious. "Fallon sent me to tell you that the Bear will lead the charge against the Treylor today, but that the Irregulars will not fight. Also, Dellex apparently rode ahead to scout out the field? I believe that last bit...

Val freezes and time seems to slow down as terror sweeps through her. She tenses her muscles to avoid an attack if it comes. She steps slowly backward, not wishing to trigger any predatory instinct the creature might have. Her mind races as she tries to identify the creature. Her eyes searching...

Darling was was glad when one of the strangers rushed forward to aid her dismount. She finished undoing the saddle and then took the hand he offered. When the rough looking man chose to mock her modesty, her brow rose in an amused and appraising way and she stared into his cool, gray eyes until...

Darling had assumed the lights had been another of Fallon's spells, or perhaps that the Dwarf was expecting a winged messenger. As several arrows zinged past her, these thoughts left her and she veered instead for the ragged group that was forming in the field just out of archer range. They were...

Val hears the count and gets excited! She darts off into the woods to find a good spot. After several yards, she stops to look around, hoping for a hollow tree or a fallen log to curl into. Val's Spot Check (1d20-1=17)

As if the height alone wasn’t enough to make her dizzy, the circles that the Griffon made in the air as it rose would certainly would. Darling closed her eyes tight and fought the urge to escape from the back of this beautiful beast. The wind whistled through her ears despite her hood, and she...

Darling suddenly felt like she was dreaming. The old man began to speak in tongues, gesturing with his hands, and the world seemed less real than it had a moment before. Anxiety rose in the pit of her stomach as something began to take shape in front of them. "..." She opened her mouth to...

"Fly?" Darling sputtered, capping her flask nervously, "I'll assume that's a figure of speech. I haven't found our relationship so rewarding that I'm about let you fling me off into the sky." Fallon didn’t seem to be listening to her. Her eyes narrowed, and she crossed her arms over her...
