I plan on living forever. Or die trying.
Cyr
[sblock=Cyr's memories]
Dim light . . . candles in a carpeted hallway . . . excitement - or fear . . . Amhrán close behind . . . Hope he's OK - this is turning out to be a difficult assignment for a 'check out' mission . . . Gler's on the wane again . . . looking for something . . . What's that? Thought I heard a noise . . .
Suddenly the view shifts to one above and slightly behind -
Tall female form with a club . . . smaller male takes Amhrán from behind . . . the woman's club crashes down on Cyr's skull . . . darkness . . .
Multiple rapid flashes of the cell . . . Cyr laying about . . . eating whatever is in front of him . . . people entering but too blurry to indicate specific descriptions (or even genders) . . .
Darkness . . .
Cyr becomes aware that there are voices approaching the door to his cell from the outside.

I'm sorry, but my memory isn't clear enough to allow descriptions. She was taller then I am and man was of slighter build then Amhrán. When I'm rested I can try to remember the scene in more details.
Rings are invested with small portion of spirit of, I'd guess, our queen and particular Bairdéir, thus uniquely identifying it. Mine is for some reason little bit more powerful then average, allowing me to see such things in other rings and giving me some measure of extra protection against weak willed, as your friend Skáth wittnessed. I cannot say if this same spirit is used for control of said Bairdéir.

"Oh yes my friend we are under her control, she has been benovelent enough not to use that control, but never forget we are under her thumb should she choose to exercise it." There is uncharacteristic bitterness in his voice. For all his expansive good humor, at some level Gavril still resents the loss of his freedom.

With a laugh Gavil sheads his dark mood like a cloak on a warm day. "Aye, Cairn you could have the right of it. Let us hope that whatever charms I may have are enough to see me through this evening."
To Cyr he says, "Hmm, we really need to get you a look at the Maor's ring then don't we. How might we do that?" He considers, but no idea springs to mind.

"Didn't we just have a meeting with Maor Clun? If we did it once, we can surely do it again. Just say we forgot to ask something the first time, see if we can get a brief audience with him again, parade our new comrade by his ring, and, I don't know, tell Maor that we need to get his permission to speak to his household guards? Of course, he will know that we don't need to get his permission, but this will make him think that our investigation is leading us in that direction, which may give us more cover for our true aims."

I would welcome such an opportunity, just not for reasons you just state. My perception of rings, as far as I know, functions only on Bairdéir rings. Never tried it on anything else. I'd be more interested to see who startles or panics when he sees me out of the cells and coming back for more.
I still suggest we send someone to report this happenings to the Queen. Amhrán, would you be willing to go? You can then also speak with the Queen of your next assignements...
- turning back to the party -
Of course, any help from you would be appreciated

"I agree that someone should definitely inform our Queen of these tidings as soon as possible, and I think that sending Amhrán is an excellent idea! Do you think that the entire household knows of your imprisonment, or just a few select individuals? Does Maor know? At any rate, I share your curiosity to anyone's reaction to your newfound liberty. This will be a singularly bold move on our part to flaunt your freedom before your captors, who think that they control the power here. We may have to back it up withour Bairdeir might, and I have just sharpened my axes in anticipation of such!" A very smug expression steals across Cairn's face as he says this.

"I think it is a very bad idea to flaunt that the prisoner is now out and that we are associated with him. It's your choice, you are the ones who everyone knows are in town, not Cerralos and I. But remember, I will not be able to rescue you, the best I could do, should you become imprisoned is go back to the queen and inform her but by then you may well be executed."
