Paths of Legend - Tragedy at Silvergard

Johen is surprised by Alaric's response and lack of interest for the matter. Why isn't he
interested in understanding why Corath has vowed to protect him??


In the face of Alaric's response, Johen decides to close the discussion.
"Very well, let's move on.." he replies to the mage.

He walks with the group but is lost in his thoughts. We have in our group a 'construct'
whose only motivation seems to be Alaric's protection.. Yet Alaric doesn't know her or at
least pretends to! Why would she vow to protect him in the first place? Has Corath a free
will? Or can she be instructed? Could she unwillingly become a threat if her "master" chose
to instruct her and trigger a behaviour? None of my companions seem to worry about it.
My understanding of this world is so limited. Oh Herruwen if only you were here!..

Aohdan sidled up beside Johen while they walked. Staring straight ahead, he said quietly "I apologize for snapping at you earlier. There seemed something relevant to the group, and I did not understand why you would keep it from us. I am glad that you decided to tell us, though. The lady Corath's nature could become very important for us to know about- tactical reasons being the least of them. It also occurs to me that seeing that display for the first time during a fight might prove to be too much a distraction. No doubt she would use those... blades when we go into combat."
 

Johen replies to the centaur:"Do not worry about it.. I am the one who needs
to apologize. I was too confused to really know what to do then.. and I didn't want to look
stupid! So actually you did well as we now know the truth.. "


He continues in a lower voice: "Look at her.. this is truly unbelievable.. The fluidity
of her movement, her looks.. she looks so human..
And we've lived with her for a while now, and none of us had spotted anything.. Truly remarkable.."
 

"Ah'm ... almost....there... C'mon ya lazy dwarf, Faster!" Muzdum keep running through the road, making a 'clinck, clanck, clinck, clanck' noise as his body takes a little jump with each step.
 

At the onset of their leaving, Estelle takes her first few steps with a faint metallic din repeats in her ear. She stops in her tracks and follows the sound behind them on the road. "Can anybody else hear that?"
 


Yttermayn said:
"I hear it too... Corath, is that your stomach rumbling?" Aohdan says with a smirk.

Corath stops, cocking her head in her usual fashion to the right as she turns to face the centaur. "I do not have a stomach. I cannot eat. Therefore, it is not me." She looks to Alaric. "Is it perhaps you?"

OOC: Should I make a spot check to see the dwarf, or is he huffing and puffing fairly close to us? ;)
 


Tired, sweaty, breathless and hungry, Muzdum keeps running by the road. "Ah'm... almost.... there... Oh my legs!...." thinks the dwarf. "C'mon ... bloody ... bastard, ... its ... just ... some miles ... don't ... give ... up ... yet ... "
'Clink clang cling clank' made his armor and backpack as he ran.
 

Johen instructs Highflyer and lets him take his flight towards the origin of the sound. Highflyer raises effortlessly in the air and flies towards a point in the distance along their path before starting to circle around..
