Heart of Artifice Temporary 2--Aethelus Alone

[Erekose13]

"Yes indeed, I am not from around here. I'll spin a little tale if that is what you like, though under the circumstances you'll understand if I keep it a bit short." he replies.

ooc: Trying not to hold everyone up with my thread too much, so rather than sitting here for half an hour composing a fantastical tale about spurned love in Lammania (completely fictional) can we just say he did (and most likely a poor job: untrained Perform +4, combined with Know (the planes) +4)

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: Ah, she meant stories from your far-away home. Lammania is fine though, if he prefers. He'll get a 'routine performance' if he goes with that)

 

[Erekose13]

(ooc: oh I know what she meant, but so far he has only confided in Jade regarding his own home and wants to keep that knowledge private for now. Its fun playing a power hungry, suspicious, slightly evil character sometimes )

 

[Rystil Arden]

*She doesn't seem quite satisfied, but she thanks him anyway.*

"Ah well, that story was already, but it seemed like a fairytale. Not like Sharn, with all the wonderful soaring towers! Anyway, there's no need to pay for the time you spent here--it's on the house."

 

[Erekose13]

"Sharn? I'd thought something fanciful more in flavor given the situation. I'd not wanted to bring down the mood. But I hadn't realised you knew of my home. Have you met many travellers from there?"

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Oh, so you are from Sharn? Not many, one or two, maybe. I have heard such things about Sharn and its towers, but I have also heard that it can be dangerous there. Still, I think I want to see it some day, if I could. I'm not sure whether I want to visit Fantasia, Esperal, or Sharn more!"

 

[Erekose13]

"Was it recently that you met some of my fellow Sharnites? It is truely a place to see, but then so is Spiras."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Sure, just yesterday and today," Liliara nods, "As for Mousai, it's a great place to live, but it's not so fanastic as a city made of all kinds of towers!"

 

[Erekose13]

"From a top the spires of Skyway, you can see out across the entire hilt. Skyway floats above the towers of Sharn, another city above the city of Towers. Yesterday and Today? The Leywitch had indicated that people like me are very rare here. Do you know the names of those you've met?"

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Wow, you've talked to Leywytch Jadishtai! Ohmygosh that's so awesome! I can't believe it! What was she like?"

"Oh, he was a stubby fellow named Kharas. He's my only other friend from Sharn."
