Academy of Drell, Part 7

Keith nods, feeling the shame brought on by Charlotte's words, and nods, and follows behind, "I apologize, I try not to lose my temper, it isa fault, one that I ashamed of."

Keith follows though staying alert, "I won't let it happen again, this I promise."

Keith
"I apologize, I try not to lose my temper, it is a fault, one that I ashamed of. I won't let it happen again, this I promise."

Charlotte nods, and smiles. "It's alright. Just don't let it happen again, okay?"

Sounds like I was a little too harsh... but damn it, why do men always have to be so damn competitive with each other! But then again, maybe I'm being too judgmental...

Keith nods, "It won't happen again, Charlotte."
 

"Oh, Keith." Charlotte says softly, sighing. "Sometimes I wonder about you..."

He seems a little subdued... well, I suppose he would be, after all that I just said.

"You don't have to worry about me," Keith says with the rare wry smile, "with you by my side, I rarely worry, between the two of us, there is nothing we cannot overcome, or accomplish."

Keith continues his voice returning its normal blase, aloof quality, "I only look forward to a time, when we are not throwing ourselves into the fire, a more quiet and intimate time, I presume."

Keith rests his hand on his blade, "But for now, we don't have that luxury."
 

Sildarin is slightly taken aback by the change in Charlotte's mood, his eyes widening for a brief moment before his face changes to emotionlesness. He moves off with a good pace but reminds himself to stay quiet and unseen.

Yes, Mistress...

Sildarin cringes at Slith's comment, but lets it pass.

Going to the opposite direction from the giant's lair, don't remember what direction that was in.

OoC: Charlotte speaks orc... assuming that this is intelligible, and some known dialect, can she translate it? Or have we already done that, and I've just forgotten?

After Mortimer carefully scans the paper and puzzles it through, it becomes a lot more clear.

The lower right, is a series of notes about the shoals and reefs hidden under the waters. The scribbled bits are related to orc somewhat, but the author clearly either wasn't a scribe or was so accustomed to jotting notes only for his own use, he didn't pay attention to normal syntax and usage.

The squiggles in the lower left of the island are apparently representative of some kind of quicksand or frozen marshy area, though that makes little sense.

The darkened dot, center left lower, is some sort of tower.

A cove is clearly marked on the south of the island.

A small peninsula on the east of the island is cryptically marked "giant" and the far north of the island seems to have some notes about ice floes.

Travellios's magic clearly reveals the notations on avoiding the shoals, but the rest is still indecipherable, as it seems to be a series of visual cues rather than a true language.

The tower is due west of the giant's lair.

-edit- ok, kind of west-ish. I added more to the map. Don't blame me because orcish raiders use crude maps. :)
