[QUOTE="Jarval, post: 1117332, member: 421"] [COLOR=sandybrown]"Greeting to you, Ivar."[/COLOR] Horatio welcomes the half-orc. [COLOR=sandybrown]"Good that another of the City is with us."[/COLOR] Osric stands with Aesa's help, gingerly testing his treated leg. [COLOR=yellowgreen]"Thanks, lass, you've fixed it up a treat."[/COLOR] He grins, buckling the greave back onto his left leg. [COLOR=yellowgreen]"Good to meet you, Ivar."[/COLOR] The two men watch as the guards approach, Osric's fingers inching towards the hilt of the greatsword slung across his back as he eyes the unidentified weapons. Both brothers stand ready to give aid if needed, watching as Sir Drevan and a dwarf speak with the soldiers. [COLOR=sandybrown]"So you also where pursuing the black carriage?"[/COLOR] Horatio looks in surprise at the dwarf. [COLOR=sandybrown]"A ghostly arm took one of the orphans in my charge, and my brother and I tried to chase it."[/COLOR] [COLOR=yellowgreen]"Aye."[/COLOR] Osric nods at his sibling's words. [COLOR=yellowgreen]"Much good that it did. Those damn mists must have been reeking with magic to move us to whatever place this is."[/COLOR] He stares dourly at the swampland, scratching his chin as he thinks. [COLOR=yellowgreen]"Seems to me that someone wanted us all here pretty badly to expend that much power..."[/COLOR] [COLOR=sandybrown]"Which makes me even more concerned for the safety of the child."[/COLOR] Horatio interjects. [COLOR=sandybrown]"But our dwarven friend is right, there's little more we can do this evening."[/COLOR] The bard turns his attention back to the guardsmen. [COLOR=sandybrown]"As strange as it may sound, it would seem that none of us know quite how we came to be here..."[/COLOR] [COLOR=yellowgreen][size=1]"I can make a damn good guess..."[/size][/COLOR] [COLOR=sandybrown]"Thank you brother, I'm sure you can. Or indeed where here is. I'd be most grateful if you could enlighten us on the latter point, and, if your duty allows it, direct us to an establishment where we can stay the night. Oh, and I've forgotten my manners entirely. I'm Horatio Lackland."[/COLOR] He extends his hand, palm upwards, to the guard, a friendly smile on his face. [COLOR=yellowgreen][size=1]"Kord help us, could he be laying it on any thicker?"[/size][/COLOR] Osric mutters quietly, rolling his eyes at Horatio's little speech. [color=skyblue][b]OOC:[/b] I've put Horatio's dialogue in sandy brown, and Osric's in yellow green, trying to make things a little clearer. If anyone dislikes the colours I've used, or the idea of coloured speech in general, I'll edit it back to normal.[/color] [/QUOTE]
