Destiny's Tears: Zykovian's Sidetrack

[Keia]

Zykovian shrugged . . . he had done the best he could. "I was hoping to understand why you were doing this, woman." Zykovian said to himself in High Praetorian. He headed back to the Laughing Sail, empty handed . . . though perhaps with more information.

*Thinking over the fact that the messages and killings had been carefully plotted to allow someone after her to find her, and yet she simply fled at confrontation with Fraye, it seems she wants to draw someone to her, and it isn't Zykovian or Fraye.*

*Zykovian reaches the Laughing Sail without any further incidents.*

 

[Keia]

Before entering the Sail, Zykovian cast a Prestidigitation, doing a quick clean of his body and clothes. Once at the Sail, Zykovian ordered a drink, and had a seat away from the others at the moment . . . he needed to mull over the information he had thus far.

*Amity gets Zykovian a drink, asking:*

"How'd it go? You don't look so happy...do you think if I made my famous vanilla jhirberry pie that maybe that could brighten you up?"

 

[Keia]

"Of course it would, Amity," Zykovian replied, "though I wouldn't want to take you away form your other customers."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"It's pretty late, so I'm not getting terribly many food requests. And besides, I can't do much else but cook while waiting for the water to boil on this jhamryn stew, can I? I'll have it donw for you in a bit."

 

[Keia]

Zykovian nodded, then looked for the silver haired women from before. He doubted that they were there, but he was grasping at straws currently.

"Well, if that's the case, I have some more translating for you, when you have the time and can get away, as well," Zykovian explained.

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Okay, but not until after I finish the pie and the stew--oh and both women left quite a bit before midnight, one to her room here and the other to another inn--she had been visiting a friend here."

 

[Keia]

"Well, I won't likely need it before tomorrow anyway," Zykovian explained, standing. After giving his regards to Amity, Zykovian walked back to the back room to see if Eloquence was here or not.

 

[Rystil Arden]

*Zykovian can't spot Eloquence in the back room anywhere. As he sits and mulls over the new things he has learned, eventually he smells a delicious sweet smell that precedes Amity walking over with a lovingly-baked vanilla jhirberry pie:*

"Here you go--it's made with the freshest jhirberries I could find."
