Academy of Drell, Part 6

[Tokiwong]

Keith nods... "I think I said that aready, but yes we do need to start searching again, tommorow, and a bully, you jest, I only said what I said, because I beleive it is true, if he disagrees then fine, but I apologize if I am not allowed to have my own opinion, Lyrique..."

 

[Zhure]

The water is only relatively warm; it's still icy-cold to bathe in. It does, however, easily rid all the bathers of any remnants from the caves.

Paendaerig's examination of the tracks shows them quite evident in the snow, then disappearing instantly, as if Glukma teleported or used similar magics.

Continue your conversation(s) or take actions whenever you're ready.

Experience = 500 (I find PbP to be a very slow medium, so I tend to give out random chunks of XP occasionally.

 

[Dalamar]

Sildarin lets the arguing go on around him, trying to ignore it as much as possible (which is difficult as it is spoken in his native language).
After getting out of the water, Sildarin manifests sudden minor creation creating a thick blanket as big as he can muster. He then cuts a piece fitting for himself with the blade added to his rapier's handgrip.
"We don't want to catch a cold."

Tries to find a tree that could hold his weight in a comfortable position in it.

 

[Tokiwong]

Keith nods, seeing Sildarin settle down, "I will take the first watch," Keith stands at the edge of the camplight, and watches the scenery...

 

[Jarval]

"Do you want any company on watch?" Mortimer asks Keith. "If we've got a mind-controlled drow and some shadow creature on the loose, it might be an idea to have more than one of us awake at any given moment."

 

[Tokiwong]

"Do you want any company on watch?" Lorcan asks Keith. "If we've got a mind-controlled drow and some shadow creature on the loose, it might be an idea to have more than one of us awake at any given moment."

Keith glanced over his shoulder, "if you don't mind being on duty with a thug and a bully, then be my guest, I would appreciate the help."

 

[Jarval]

Mortimer winces at Keith's answer. He takes a seat beside Keith, and speaks to the elf quietly.

"We've got off to a bad start, you and I. I'm sure none of use, not even Lyrique, regard you as a thug or a bully, but we all feel a little protective of Sildarin. He's a brave lad, but painfully shy, and we're just trying to show that we trust him and appreciate his company." Mortimer pauses, then offers his hand to Keith, shaking the elf's hand firmly if Keith doesn't object. "I agree with you that we shouldn't fight among ourselves, and I'd like to make a fresh start. I know for one that I've not really given you the easiest time since you showed up."

 

[Tokiwong]

Keith shook his hand, but stayed silent for a long moment, perhaps several minutes, "I know you are wondering the same thing, where was I, I really don't know, one moment I was with you guys, another moment, I found myself on the beach... I lied back there, but I did not know what else to say, It troubles me that I have no recollection of what happened, and what transpired."

Keith took a seat, and began to sharpen his already sharp blade, "I am not going to discount Sildarin's bravery, I have a probem with seeing visible weakness, I was trained to supress such things, it irks me to see it so visibly, and diplomacy was not a skill I was ever blessed with."

Keith took a rock, and tossed it into the trees, "I didn't expect a warm reception, so no need to be sorry, if I have to earn respect, I am willing to do so, I only have two concerns right now, saving these villagers, and protecting those dear to me," Keith glanced over his shoulder at Charlotte, and then turned to Mortimer, "but again thanks for the company, I much prefer this to being alone, I have been alone a long time..."

But I don't have to be anymore...

 

[Zhure]

Give me a watch order, if you're going to set camp.

 

[Argent Silvermage]

Lyrique will take last watch. He will also spend time at the beach during the 2nd watch trying to catch some fish for breakfast. He only needs 4 hours of sleep so he has the extra time.
and no... he has no skill at fishing. He'll use monster summoning 1 to call forth a celestial hawk who will catch the fish. it will not last long but all they need is a few fish.
