New Scarred Lands game

[Serpenteye]

"What brought you here?"

Her smile turns crooked "A marriage of alliance to a man four times my age, a forbidden love affair betrayed and a Godess who helped me understand my existance. I came here because I made a choice and had no choice." In her thoughts she berates herself for having said too much, but the playful smile comes back to mask her emotions. "We seem to have a lot in common."

 

[National Acrobat]

Aerin looks at Aliana, "yes it seems that we do. It is kind of strange, all of the time that we had spent defending the village from the monstrous threat, and I had not realized how much we had in common." What are you doing? Thinking that she might care what you think. "I am sorry to hear about your previous troubles and what has brought you here. However, I am sure that there is a force that guides you." Aerin will bend down and pluck a flower for Aliana. "Here, take this as a token of my appreciation for you listening to my ramblings."

 

[Serpenteye]

She blushes, as she's been trained to do, and takes the flower from him, her fingers brushing lightly against his hand. "Knight or not, you are nevertheless as chivalrous as they come. Noblilty is in your soul and can never be taken away from you." Her eyes sparkling with... something, she looks at his face. He's not all that bad-looking, not at all.
She twirls the flower slowly in her hand, inhales its rich, heavy scent and with a nod to Aerin turns away and walks gracefully towards the stage of the bardic competition.

 

[Tokiwong]

Kana stays aloof, and watches the display, from behind her fan, noting who won, but not really approaching. Simply watching, staying quiet and unnassuming.

 

[National Acrobat]

Hmm. That was interesting. I still don't understand it all, but she took the flower and brightened at the compliment. I wonder where everyone else is. Elisia should be on next.
Aerin, a bit flustered, and yet feeling good, heads over to find a bit to eat and drink from one of the vendors. He will stop and talk to any children or any other interested people about archery. He will then wander over to the Bardic Competition to cheer on Elisia in her endeavors.

Kana settles in behind Aerin, and speaks softly.

"You did well."

She says little else and touches his shoulder, before removing her hand just as quickly.

 

[National Acrobat]

My head is spinning...

Aerin turns to Kana, "I didn't see you there. In fact, I haven't seen you since the fair began. Where have you been hiding yourself?"And what does she mean, "you did well?" I did well at what. My head is spinning.

Aerin turns to Kana, "I didn't see you there. In fact, I haven't seen you since the fair began. Where have you been hiding yourself?"And what does she mean, "you did well?" I did well at what. My head is spinning.

Kana brings up her fan once more, shielding her face, "I have been watching."

She fans herself gently, as if there is all the time in the world for such questions.

 

[National Acrobat]

Aerin turns to Kana, "are you going to watch the Bardic Competition?" He motions towards the pavillion where the event is to take place. "That is where I am heading. I am looking forward to our young halfling comrade's performance. You haven't seen the rest of our merry band, have you?" Aerin starts to head towards the next event, carrying a cold, fermented beverage and a plate of whatever is available to eat.

"They must be enjoying themselves."

Kana follows Aerin at a liesurely pace, and pauses to watch. She moves like a cat, her movements graceful, yet languid, and slow paced. She watches silently, simply listening to all around her.
