Another day in the Tavern

[Gene_Kynes]

Sighing, Gene swirls around the contents of his glass.

"All my songs seem to do...is...either sadden people, relieve the mourning...or make people happy. Never inspire rage, lust, nor discomfort. Guess I've got a lil't'learn? Oh...an' we do?"

Gene glances to the left...and soon hears the rapid breathing of the young elf. He looks back to Khaira.

"You two...talk. An'...I'm sure Lady Hoot could at least...analyze it. I'll...be right back."

He winks at the bard, before dissapearing...

A short distance away, Kulideb feels the soft, tattered surface of a certain...signiture...black cloak on her arm. When she looks to it's owner...she sees nothing more but a face concealed by the shadows of a cut-up hood. Strands of silvered and black hair are faintly visible through the hood.

"Little young to be in a fine establishment like this...are you not?"

 

[kulideb]

Kulideb almost jumped a mile when Gene spoke to her (how does he manage to sneak up like that, she wondered)
"A little young!" she answered " just because I'm short doesnt mean I'm young!" really she was feeling a little guilty for being caught out. She looked around at what some of the other ladies were wearing may be if she dressed a little more like them.. but no she just wouldnt be comfortable with all the stares they seemed to get.

She asked (a little timidly) Gene and Khaira and their other guest if she might join them.She had never met a drow before but like most poeple she had heard a lot about them.

 

[Khaira]

Khaira look at kulideb, a half-smirk on her face
"They call you Kulideb, do they not? Come, come sit with us...tell us about yourself. Where do you come from? What are you interests? What are your plans for the future? But most of all...what would you like to drink?"
She takes a long sip of her wine as she awaits kulideb's answer

 

[kulideb]

She blused a bit,
"I would love to join you all my lady. and I would love some fresh water, thank you."

She pulled out a chair and took a seat.

" I like to hear the bards sing, although I'm not much good ar it myself. I'm a little new here. I'm also a student at the school that Gene teaches, an older student" the last bit was said with a bit of a grin at Gene.

" I hear that you some times teach there too my lady?"

 

[Khaira]

She arises and walks over to the bar, and purchases some water for Kulideb. As she returns to her seat, she begins to speak of the school

"Sometimes? Well, the truth is quite frequently I teach the Bard class. Currently we have a bit of a trip planned. The initial plan was to go to Cormyr but...she smirks a this, for some odd reason' ...some individuals have express a lack of interesting in travelling to Cormyr. But, where-ever we do go, it will be at the end of this week.
Gene and I actually teach in the same wing, I believe. It is quite a lovely place, in fact. I remember when Agudo and I were travelling together in that last, fateful journey...the wind in my face on the road. Ahhhh...how I wish to embrace those days once again. Perhaps....", she mutters, and trails off
"But enough of myself...what about you? What is the story of your happening upon the School?"

 

[kulideb]

She gratefully takes the water with a thank you.
"I led quite a sheltered life and when things changed, well I fond my self here. I left a note and Gene was kind enough to point me to the school. I have been taking Genes class but I did think of adding others. There is so much to learn and see."She giggles a bit a Genes discomfort about the trip. "I would love to go on a trip, my lady. I hear that some of the bigger towns have started to open collages just for music. but it doesnt matter were I go as every were is new."
She takes a sip of water.
"what other areas were you thinking of going to my lady?"

 

[Gene_Kynes]

"An older student-teacher, thank you very much."

Sparing a wink, he moves back to the table, sitting down.

"Oh...er...Khaira, an exam is coming up for my class....by the way. Mind me using your classroom as...an objective?"

He grins...the expression still dampened, but with somewhat of a boyish, almost roguish hint to it. He then sits back...and looks with interest at Khaira, awaiting the answer.

Somewhere...fun. C'mon...anywhere but Cormyr? Please?

His eyes betray no thoughts, no emotion that his expressions won't reveal...but they shift once again, a blue sunburst framed by crimson.

 

[Khaira]

She looks to Kulidep, nodding in understanding "Well, I extend my personal invitation to you for this trip, wherever it is that we go. I was also thinking of Icewind Dale, or perhaps Krynn. Waterdeep may be interesting as well. But certain older student teachers are uncomfortable, as I previously said..." She smirks, though at Gene or if for something else - no one knows

She looks to Gene quizzically "My classroom - as an objective? Please, Gene, do elaborate. I must know more of this exam before I agree to being a part of it...Sounds kind of suspicious..."

 

[Faeryl]

"I might say, indeed, a trip to the land of Cormyr,
May indeed be filled more than a little fear for some.
However, if your heart is set on this trip,
It would be none too hard to give the authorities the slip, Sir Gene."

"I say unto ye, Lady Khaira the bard,
Even a glorious place such as Cormyr has it marrs
I would suggest a place Waterdeep,
Where you can have more fun in a week."

 

[Khaira]

The Trip!

She looks at Faeryl with newfoudn respect and...pity? FOr a moment, she deciphers Faeryl's words.
"A disguise, you mean? aYes, a disguise would be so easy! With my abilities she grins from the past as a ...well, with my abilities, and Lady Hoot's and Agudo's magic, we could invent an impenetrable disguise, I'm sure! Of course, Cormyr would not be the only place to go. One location would not be good enough, to be sure!"
