[QUOTE="97mg, post: 6853376, member: 6799460"] [b]Aletia: Don't shoot the messenger[/b] [COLOR="#000000"]Yet again, Aletia had "presumed" wrong. It would have been easy if it was the bed-ridden old man she'd conjured in her imagination. No. Instead it seemed, she was going to have to impart the news to a stern, inebriated, tough and grumbling warrior. The air was heavy as Aletia prepared herself, and the ominous furnishings of the room only added to a growing sense of insecurity. For just one moment she imagined her head, neatly stuffed, glass eyes in her sockets, placed upon the shelving for all to see. [/COLOR] [COLOR="#A52A2A"]~Dragon. Hobgoblin. Oh this one?
