Message: <blockquote data-quote="Binder Fred" data-source="post: 6126809" data-attributes="member: 63746">"My apologies. I just -ah- wanted to make sure." A sustained look at her white-shrouded head, his delicate elven jaw uncomfortable with vague grief... "Please do inform us if relatives are found, people which might have known or been involved with the couple more directly?" That they might possibly learn from them of this gem, these coins and well business in addition to the burial... And, as well: "I- would like to attend the ceremony, if possible." Another look at her body... "I am sorry I could not save you... I did try..." Though that is of course cold comfort... to both of them.Antares bows once more to officer Gregof and then departs..."Ah... Perhaps a *joint* venture into the tunnels, guards and Company both?" he does suggest, stopping and pulling a closing door back open a bit, the thought having just occurred.[OOC]Last one, I promise! <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/devil.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":devil:" title="Devil    :devil:" data-shortname=":devil:" />[/OOC]"Ah, one moment please?" Antares quickly gathers up his own share from Bo <120 crowns, right?> and then trots after the departing goodwife, his long legs quickly catching up. "Ah... Well... Our deepest thanks. But, perhaps," he says, rather haltingly in a voice meant to carry solely to her own ears before discretely presenting the obtained purse. "There might be... other expenses? Offerings of thanks to the Shining One, perhaps also partly - ah, mostly, I meant mostly - on our behalf?"<Response Onarie?>"So what now?" lightly questions Antares, already heading for the table. "Do you believe this matter merits further attention?" Which obviously he once did, from his entreaties back in the temple-cave. But now, in the relative quiet of the 'real' world... "It *is* a thing that carries some risk to ourselves, both physical and, more troublingly, to our very minds it seems -- that at some point we stare too deep into this star's true nature, and perhaps never return quite as we were before..." He swallows, unsure and somewhat troubled, then looks to the others at the table with him: "Is this truly a thing within our reach?" He really wants to know.</blockquote>
