Equivalent Exchange--Episode 2: Blood is Thicker

The woman peers into the darkness, seeming to have recovered after he sudden start earlier. "Does anyone have a light source?"

 

[Festy_Dog]

"This sword is more than enough," Selim replied with certainty, "As for light however, I am afraid I do not regularly carry a light source on my person."

 

[Raylis]

Elysia shook her head, "I don't have a light on me, either." She gives Selim and his saber a dubious look but doesn't press the issue.

 

[stonegod]

OOC: You know, I can't think of a single time where they had to make a light source via alchemy. Its been a while, true, so I might be forgetting something. "Laura" may need to make something since no one brought a torch.

 

[Festy_Dog]

Selim sheathes his weapon.

"Very well, we will backtrack a little and see if any of the guards carry lanterns or torches. I am sure they would not mind loaning one to us," he said, heading back towards where he last saw a fellow soldier.

 

[Raylis]

Elysia peers into the dark hallway, "We'll wait for you here."

 

[stonegod]

The mysterious woman waits impatiently. "Hurry back."

 

[Rystil Arden]

*Selim backtracks out of the ruins, looking for a soldier and finding one at the checkpoint.*

"You need a light? What for?--it's broad daylight..."

 

[Festy_Dog]

"For checking the ruins. I have reason to believe an assault suspect is hiding in there, and the light is required to aid in locating said suspect and preventing the suspect gaining the advantage of surprise," Selim explains in a straight-forward manner.

 

[Rystil Arden]

"A suspect, huh? Couldn't have gotten far in there, anyway. It's all blocked off with rubble by the explosions. I don't have a light with me right now since it's not dark out--check in the office by the prison--there should be a small supply depot near there, and one of the clerks can get you the supplies you need."
