Constables of the 14th Ward Part 3

On seeing their hostess approach, Alarion beckons her to approach. "Ah, Goodwife Mattie, always a pleasure. But we - and by 'we' I mean Constable Watson - are in particular need of your wisdom. It seems love is knocking at his door, but timidity holds him back. What do you opine?"
Mattie says, "That Elke's a good lass. Just see to it that your rakish friend doesn't break her heart, or it'll be cold staves for the lot of you for a long time." ;)

[sblock=Lou, OOC:] I fully expected you to pay for a Restoration spell! Maybe we can do some DM hand-waving to keep Raul at the same level as everyone else? You will have to shell out some gold, though, and likely sign a note for the balance.[/sblock]

"Heed our wise hostess, Darius!" Alarion entreats earnestly as he finishes his beer. Suddenly he turns serious. "I... my friends, I feel summoned to the Healing Halls of Morwyn... I know not how." He stands and shoulders his shield. "I will see you on the morrow, my friends... and Darius, we shall speak more on this."
He turns and leaves after bowing to Mattie, but only the most perceptive of the Constables notice the evil smile on his face as he threw that last barb at his good friend.
 

"Darius, if you are still feeling...drained...on the morrow, please let me know," says Braevil between bites of staves and sips of ale. "I shall pray to Meda for the power to restore your strength."


OOC: Since Brae is now Cleric 7, he can cast restoration on those that need it.
 


OOC: My Co-DM is temporarily incapacitated, but I hope to have him back shortly. Look for us to advance time a couple of month before we resume the action. Feel free to post up anything you'd like to accomplish during that time. Tau has some magic making to do that's already been mentioned. Assume you are all fully healed and restored shortly into this 'down time'.
 

OOC: Still temporarily incapacitated, but back nevertheless. Thank you, thank you!! [bow, bow, scrape]

SoulFetter spends his time working on a new batch of Porter, practicing his bowyer/fletcher skills, and walking a beat - keeping the Alpha Squad a presence in the 14th Ward, meeting and greeting, etc.
 

Alarion of Tovarre

The young knight is ordained as a Faithful Son of Morwyn, on a ceremony that takes place on the very eve of the constables' return to the city. He is glad to know that as an experienced recruit, he will not (for the present at least) be assigned as bodyguard to one of the Matriarchs. Instead, he is to continue his duties as Constable, where he can share the teachings of Morwyn by example, and help keep her flock safe.

Other than his tasks as constable and faithful son, Alarion intends to seek out Sir Upjohn on his day off to check on the sheriff's health. During work hours, he will do his best to learn anything he can about the whereabouts of Thaddeus Thornapple.
 

For Alarion

Sir Upjohn is doing well, and he thanks Alarion for his concern as the two of you share a hearty glass of mead.

Rumors abound concerning Thaddeus Thornapple. He has been seen around the Ward, apparently, but never in one place for long enough to be observed by more than just one or two people. Mysterious fliers have been seen, predicting the imminent fall of Lauralie Summerhome and its great destruction in flames, wars, and great cataclysms, typical crazy-type stuff.
 

Tau has a few awkward dinners with his father. Ruknal asks about how his job with the Constables is going but is disappointed that his son doesn't seem to have changed much. He also works on his magic items, scribes a few spells, and continues his research into this Thelugadam that they may have to deal with someday, if anything else can be found.
