Destiny's Tears- First Interlude

[Keia]

Zykovian T'Erilan Male Altanian Hps: 24/28

AbMM[SBLOCK]*Zykovian accepted the item from the guard captain, nodding his thanks to him. After Barryn commented, Zykovian gave a short bow from the neck, turned to Mhrazhar and asked in High Praetorian . . . .*[SBLOCK] "Well I have stalled as long as I could, my friend. Has it been sufficient time for you to come up with a plan to wisk us all out of here? Otherwise, I fear we may have to give up the gem. We have been outplayed here, perhaps by Erila, herself.[/sblock][/SBLOCK]

Melody:
[SBLOCK]
"Melody, you say?" the registrar turns around in his chair, revealing a red-haired man with grey eyes.

*He listens to what Melody has to say.*

"So you'd like to join us then, would you then? I'm afraid I can't allow that...you've built up quite a reputation in this town as a swindler and a scoundrel. In fact, I'm going to have to place you under arrest for assisted murder."

*He watches the confused look on Melody's face and then grins and laughs.*

"Just kidding!"

*His form ripples and shifts into the familiar favoured form of Discovery, Melody's father.*

"Melody, my dear little girl!," Discovery says with a warm smile, coming up to her and giving her a big hud, "It is so good to see you! How have you been? As you can see, I'm working as the registrar here for the moment."
[/SBLOCK]

Melody

Rystil:
[SBLOCK]Melody's seriously confused look turns into a broad smile as her father reveals himself. Laughing with him for a moment, she then joins him in a hug and says:

“Dad! You almost had me there for a moment... I was surprised to find out, that you are here working with the alliance, but now that I think about it, it's not so hard to believe, really. How have I been? That's not easy to answer. I am well now, but had a little trouble yesterday and probably some more is up on the horizon. Not for me specifically, but for a few friends I made and with whom I would like to go spelljamming, if they care to join me. They only know this half of me, by the way, you see, I need to practice a little and this is a good opportunity. Oh, and since you probably have some ties with the city officials then... there really needs to be some kind of warning sign in front of the Sacra temple... I scarcely made it out there yesterday. Not everyone knows about their customs! And how was your day?”[/SBLOCK]

Fedowin coughs politly into his hand for attention, and then steps forward slightly and bows to the captain. Speaking eldish with a slight rowaini accent he says [sblock] "My pardon captain, but I'm slightly confused. I thought we were meant to take all the RoseThorns and the gem to 'Eloequence' for our bounty? And while I mean no disrespect to the good sir, " [/sblock] and here he bows to Zaryn, [sblock] "I do not know him, and I do know that there are Dolathi involved in this situation, and I would hate to go through all we went through getting our prize to hand it over to the wrong person....." [/sblock] He spreads his hands apolegeticly.

Molpe:
[SBLOCK]
"Yes, let's!" Virina agrees.

"Agreed. I am looking forward to seeing your true sister again," Karya adds.

*Celimene smiles and nods.*
[/SBLOCK]

Molpe Lilypetals: Limnad/Female (Siren)

RA: [sblock]* Molpe giggles with the girls in obviously excitement at the knowledge that she will soon see her true sister again. As they walk off towards the private suite Molpe waves to Vilnmund, a large smile on her face, as she once again thanks him for watching the desk so that Celimene can join them. *

As they walked Molpe nudged Kreya in the side and asks her curiously, “You spoke of Wei-Han like you know him, sister. Is that true?” [/sblock]

Melody:
[SBLOCK]
"The Sacra...they're annoying, and they got very upset when we tried something like that, calling it discrimination against their religion...ultimately, the officials just figured that not that many people would enter a strange religion's temple, and they required the Sacra to inform everyone that the grounds of the cathedral are considered Sancyric soil, and they hoped that would be enough to prevent most, if admittedly not all, incidents..." Discovery looks a bit upset though when he hears about the incident, "I'm sorry that they turned on you, though Melody...if I found out that they caught you, I promise I would have pulled some strings to get you out..."

"As for my day...I was up all night last night working on setting up for the convocation, and now I'm basically just resting in here, since almost nobody has come to see the registrar. Once I'm better rested, I'll head out for an info session and then chat with some of the guests if I can...would you like me to buy you some dinner later on, or would you rather go out with your friends?"

All but Melody and Molpe:
[SBLOCK]
*The guard captain nods to Fedowin and replies in Eldish:*
[SBLOCK]
"Your prudence is admirable, but we do have that covered, good sir. This is Zaryl Barryn, the man who employed you via Eloquence, so if you could please let him have the Jewel then the transaction will be compete."
[/SBLOCK]

*Looking to Zykovian, he shakes his head and speaks again.*
[SBLOCK]
"No, that's not quite how it works. You have to put it on the back of the Pleb's neck where the numbers are, like so."
[/SBLOCK]

*Lyveria stands meekly as the guard captain applies the small metal object to the back of her neck. As soon as it touches the '108R527' , the numbers appear in glowing letters on the back of the metal, and then it extends into a collar around her neck, with the metal tag falling off into the captain's hand and leaving the collar intact.*

*The captain hands the tag to Zykovian, saying in Eldish:*

[SBLOCK]
"Okay, now you take it sir,"
[/SBLOCK]

*And he bows and awaits the Crazan Arris transaction and the end of a stressful two-day affair.*
[/SBLOCK]

Molpe:
[SBLOCK]
*Vilnmund smiles and bows, as the four girls walk towards the Waterfall Room.*

*Karya answers Molpe:*

"I vaguely remember hearing about an adventurer named Wei-Han--I think, those names are all so similar--but that was years back, so maybe I'm just imagining things...I think he was a noble martial artist who went on missions only if he agreed with their principles, and then when he was paid for the job, he donated all of it to charity."
[/SBLOCK]

Molpe Lilypetals: Limnad/Female (Siren)

RA: [sblock]“That sounds like him,” Molpe mused with a found smile that quickly turned teasing, “but I guess it really comes down to how you define ‘years ago’ sister...”[/sblock]
