Heroes, Inc., Day 1: Mysterious Strangers

Alethia nodded. "Take precautions though. Books like these can be.... Treacherous." she said. "And I don't trust that Garan farther than I can spit." she looked at the headless body that had been Alath.

"What should we do with the body? I'm not sure it would be in her best interest to raise her. She's safe now, at peace. All her friends and family are dead or have moved on. Why bring her back to more confusion and heartache?" she asks quietly, moving towards the edge of the boat, but not close enough to get caught by the force field. waiting expectantly for the others.

Dyria sighe. "I see your point," she admitted to Fin.

"That's a rather arrogant statement, isn't it?" Dyria commented softly, in reply to Alethia's statement. "You cannot possibly know what she wants."

 

[kirinke]

Alethia smiles at Dyria. "No it's not arrogant, I simply ask whether it is in her best interest to raise her. Perhaps a commune spell later would answer that. We need to take into account her wishes, after all." the aasimar concedes and adds almost as an afterthought. "Death isn't always something to be feared Dyria. Sometimes it is a blessed release,"

 

[Hawkeye]

"It may be wiser to continue this conversation elsewhere and get past that barrier. Don't you think her "friends" might have heard her explode or the spells that were cast? This ship isn't that big."

 

[kirinke]

Alethia nods. "You're right of course," she says with a smile. "Question is, how do we deactivate the shield?" she asks.

 

[Falkus]

"Well, call me biased, but I hold the opinion that life is better than death," replied Dyria, crossing her arms defiantly. "That's because of hope. No matter how bad your situation, there always exists the potential to make it better."

 

[Hypersmurf]

Alethia nods. "You're right of course," she says with a smile. "Question is, how do we deactivate the shield?" she asks.

Fin scoops up the jackal-head wand.

"Bring Alath along," he says. "We can debate the morality of bringing her back if any of us survive the night."

After a quick once-over the wand to check for any buttons or obvious triggers, he points it at the field as Goran did earlier.

Kaarlo stands there dumbly, waiting to hear if Lord Peregion has any more questions and what exactly they are. Kaarlo does not want to offer to much unneeded info nor implicate the company into a liability issue. Kaarlo also realizes that Lord Peregion may just want to vent as well so he stands dumbly at attention.

Murdoch stands firm, next to Kaarlo, ready to accept responsbility for the outcome of his actions. Looking at him in the eyes, he says: "We did all we could, my lord", then, he looks at the ground in shame.

[Spellcraft Check = Success] There are no buttons, but Fin points the item at the field and wills it to open, and it does.

Peregion is clearly worrier, but does not show anger.

"I...I understand. Do you think she is still alive? Do you have any idea where or why she was taken?"
