[QUOTE="nonamazing, post: 2851678, member: 12118"] Yanhal shakes his head. "[COLOR=DeepSkyBlue]Come on, Donnor. She wouldn't have wanted you to feel like that.[/COLOR]" The middle-aged man tries to smile, weakly, as he looks around at his companions. "[COLOR=DeepSkyBlue]Look...I stand by what I said before. I don't think it's over for her.[/COLOR]" Yanhal holds up a hand as Uriel starts to speak. "[COLOR=DeepSkyBlue]Yes, my friend, you've told me before: you don't have the power to do something like that. But there are others who do.[/COLOR]" "[COLOR=DeepSkyBlue]I know you think I'm crazy. But despite that fact that she'd lived more than twice the span of years I have, she was...she was just a child. She had so much of her life ahead of her. Don't you see what I mean?[/COLOR]" Yanhal sighs. "[COLOR=DeepSkyBlue]I've given a lot of thought to this. There [I]are[/I] those rare souls who have the power to pull back the veil between this world and the next. Penelope [I]can[/I] be brought back.[/COLOR]" Yanhal takes a long drink before setting his glass down decisively. "[COLOR=DeepSkyBlue]And that's what I'm going to try and do. It won't be easy for us--up 'til now, we haven't had a whole lot of direction. We've just been wandering aimlessly, and to be frank, that's suited most of us quite well. But the kind of people who have the power necessacary to bring her back...well, they're not the kind of people who'd pay one bit of attention to a bunch of nobody drifters like us, no matter how much money we have. It's not an issue of cash, it's an issue of reputation--which is the kind of thing we've all been trying to avoid.[/COLOR]" "[COLOR=DeepSkyBlue]That means our wandering days are over, for now at least. If we're going to do this, we're going to have to settle in and start working to make a name for ourselves.[/COLOR]" Yanhal winces, obviously troubled by the idea. "[COLOR=DeepSkyBlue]Frankly, it's not what I would have chosen. But I'll do it--for my friend. I'd do the same for any of you.[/COLOR]" "[COLOR=DeepSkyBlue]Unfortunately, that means we can't afford to be as picky about what sorts of jobs we take--even those as suspicious and creepy as this one[/COLOR]," Yanhal says, motioning with one hand toward the envelope at the center of the table.
