Zaeryn:
[SBLOCK]
"Maybe," Valyssa replies, gazing outwards just like Zaeryn, as she traces her finger across Zaeryn's chest, "Maybe."

*She gives a cute little yawn.*

Zaeryn T'Erilan, Male Altanian Arcanist

Rystil

[SBLOCK]“Looks like that bath took a lot out of you my love, do you want to go back to our cabin or just take a little nap up here?” Zaeryn asks, as he kisses her softly on the forehead while stroking her hair.[/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

Zaeryn:
[SBLOCK]
"Hmm...either way would be wonderful...Which do you prefer, my Zaeryn?"
[/SBLOCK]

 

[unleashed]

Zaeryn T'Erilan, Male Altanian Arcanist

Rystil

[SBLOCK]“I’d be just as happy either way, so why don’t we just stay up here...hmm, what was that book you were reading in the bath before?”[/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

Zaeryn:
[SBLOCK]
"Sure, sounds wonderful," Valyssa replies, "Oh, the book? It was Sybaritic Arcana: Magical Assiduity Towards Superlative Succor."

Zaeryn T'Erilan, Male Altanian Arcanist

Rystil

[SBLOCK]“Sounds like an interesting read...do you mind if I borrow that while you take your nap?”[/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

Zaeryn:
[SBLOCK]
"Oh, not at all, my love," Valyssa replies, pulling the tome out of her purse and handing it to Zaeryn as she lies pressed up against him, her hair pouring down softly against his chest, getting into a comfortable position to take a nap.

Yotsu Yuriko, Martial Artist

Rystil[sblock]*Yuriko made certain no one was around, then opened the note. She smiled, enjoying the scent and thinking of Ayame-sama. She tried to figure out when it was planted on her.*[/sblock]

 

[unleashed]

Zaeryn T'Erilan, Male Altanian Arcanist

Rystil

[SBLOCK]“Sweet dreams my love...I’ll see you in a little while.”

*Zaeryn kisses Valyssa one final time and softly strokes her hair as she slowly drifts off to sleep, holding her close with his other arm...once she has been asleep for a while he opens the tome on his slightly raised knees and reads.*[/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

Yuriko:
[SBLOCK]
*When she is alone, Yuriko unfolds the note, which still carries a bit of the iris-scent on it. Though she can't place exactly when it was slipped into her hair, it was obviously some time after he bath. The note reads as follows:*

'My dear Yuriko-chan:

I hope that your journey to the monastery was not too difficult, and that you have arrived safely and in comfort. Tonight at midnight, a Spelljamming ship will come and land on the cliffs overlooking the monastery, and an emissary will enter looking for the volunteer. Be sure to be ready for him.

Take care and be safe. Ancestors willing, I will see you again very soon.

~Ayame'
