Destiny's Tears-Prologue: A Jewel in the Shadow Part II

[Brother Shatterstone]

Molpe Lilypetals: Limnad/Female (Siren)

RA[sblock]“I say again, I'm no thief I have no idea what you are talking about with the except for the Rosebuds, Wei-Han defended me from them earlier today,” Molpe smiled apologetically to the archer, “I know cause of my actions you have no reason to believe me as nothing more than a thief but I'm not. I've never been off of Amaranthia besides this trip, I'm here as a representative to Amaranthia for a convocation upon the exploration of the spheres and I've only been on planet today...”

Molpe pauses as she considers the time of day and sits down, in a non threatening manner, upon the edge of the bed her legs straight forward with no sign of modesty, “err well yesterday morning. Needless to say my latest actions was in error, I apologize I should have waited for your friends eyes to find my own eyes... I will glady try to make amends with you, I will heal your downed companion, but I would like to know more of what is going on... Not cause I want the gem, or the reward, I would gladly return it to the rightful owner but because it seems like my life is in danger... The Rosebuds didn't belive me when I said I didn't have it... I don't they'll belive me now. Please?” She makes no effort to hide her fear as she finishes making her plea, “I fear my life depends upon your kindness.”[/sblock]

*Seeing that her magic was ineffective, Yuri switches to Diplomacy, turning a brilliant smile upon Zykovian and Fedowin.*

“I say again, I'm no thief I have no idea what you are talking about with the except for the Rosebuds, Wei-Han defended me from them earlier today,” Yuri smiles apologetically and comfortingly to the archer, “I know cause of my actions you have no reason to believe me as nothing more than a thief but I'm not. I've never been off of Amaranthia besides this trip, I'm here as a representative to Amaranthia for a convocation upon the exploration of the spheres and I've only been on the planet today...”

Yuri pauses as she considers the time of day and sits down, in a non threatening manner, upon the edge of the bed her legs straight forward with no sign of modesty, “Err well yesterday morning. Needless to say my latest actions were in error, I apologize--I should have waited for your friends eyes to find my own eyes... I will gladly try to make amends with you, I will heal your downed companion, but I would like to know more of what is going on... Not cause I want the gem, or the reward, I would gladly return it to the rightful owner but because it seems like my life is in danger... The Rosebuds didn't belive me when I said I didn't have it... I don't they'll believe me now. Please?” She makes an effort to show an appearance of fear as she finishes making her plea, giving the impression of a poor lost girl who needs the big brave adventurers to protect her, which seems rather incongruous with her earlier assault, “I fear my life depends upon your kindness.”

Melody

Zykovian & Abdiel:

[SBLOCK]“Any luck yet? We need to leave now! Hurry! The Rosethorns are here, maybe they are already inside!” Melody, who suddenly reappears near the bottom of the stairs, says in Seelie.[/SBLOCK]

Rystil:

[SBLOCK]Did the girls enter through the front door (seems rather unlikely )? Or couldn't Melody see, where they went, once they were inside the compound?[/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

Melody:
[SBLOCK]
*Melody had to wait a bit to potion and then sneak, so she lost track of them when they hid. They might just have gone in, or they could be somewhere else.*
[/SBLOCK]

 

[Eonthar]

All but Molpe:[SBLOCK]Abdiel answers Melody's question (in Seelie):[SBLOCK]"I have the Crazan Arris. We can leave now."[/SBLOCK] He turns to the others in the room, and says in Seelie:[SBLOCK]"We have to leave now. I have the Crazan Arris. Melody says that the Rose Thorns are here. Let us leave now."[/SBLOCK][/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

Molpe:
[SBLOCK]
The dragon that ripped up Molpe's clothes turns down the stairs and shouts, "I have the Crazan Arris. We can leave now," and then he turns back up to everyone else and says to the rest of his thieving gang, "We have to leave now. I have the Crazan Arris. Melody says that the Rosethornes are here. Let us leave now."
[/SBLOCK]

Zykovian T'Erilan Male Altanian Hps: 14/18

AbM[sblock]*Zykovian listened to the thief's explanation, then spoke to her in Seelie*[sblock] "Alright, I can relate to what you are saying . . . but if you're not the thief, and we're not the thieves, then who is?" Zykovian said. "Were you just an unwitting carrier of the gem? Who invited you to this . . . convocation? We should leave . . . you can come with us, if you want . . . you may be safer."[/sblock]*Zykovian spoke to the Nymph, then spoke some Altanian words of power, readying himself against the Thorns.*

**Rystil Only**[sblock]*Zykovian put his analytical mind to work for him - trying to see all of the threads.* 'Something of what she's saying seems to ring true,' Zykovian thought. 'There seemed to be a lot of subterfuge and misdirection . . . the Thorns accusing me of killing people, the Sacra accusing Melody of being tainted . . . the red hair that was actually blue . . . everyone calling each other thieves and bounty hunters . . . what's beneath the veil? Could a Dolrathi be behind all of this misdirection - if they change and pull a hair, does it stay the way it was or return?'
OOC: Sense Motive? I went just on the words. Also, Zykovian manifested Shield - his last 1st level spell [/sblock][/sblock]

 

[Rystil Arden]

Zykovian:
[SBLOCK]
*Zykovian is unable to analyse her carefully-worded claims for any hint of the motive behind them. She's very good at what she does.*
[/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

Molpe:
[SBLOCK]
*The archer listens to Molpe's explanation and then responds in Seelie.*

"Alright, I can relate to what you are saying . . . but if you're not the thief, and we're not the thieves, then who is? Were you just an unwitting carrier of the gem? Who invited you to this . . . convocation? We should leave . . . you can come with us, if you want . . . you may be safer."

*As he speaks, his true intentions are revealed as he says some words of power, casting another spell that Molpe recognises as a Shield dweomer--he's preparing for a fight.*

Molpe Lilypetals: Limnad/Female (Siren)

RA[sblock]“I guess we have a fight on our hands,” Molpe states the obvious as she frets over the idea, “I need my clothes back... They offer my soft skin some subtle protection and I need to find Wei-Han... quickly,” she pauses long enough to look firmly upon the archer and the light bearer, “and no that cannot be compromised upon.”

She turns without another word and lightly shakes the naked Glamour awake, “Sister. You need to wake up now and get dressed we have quite a bit of unwanted company and we need to get a move on.” [/sblock]
