"Well, I never expected going into it to be on a wild adventure fleeing the oppression of Tymadeau forever, battling my own guards to escape...so I guess it exceeds my expectations immensely!"

Rystil:

[sblock]*Diedrik nodded appreciably and made his way onboard. He approached the room he had assumed to be the captain's quarters and knocked on the door, intending to let whoever was running the ship know that he was present.*[/sblock]

"Senator Rosa awaits you in her sitting room. Are you ready to speak with her?" the Pleb asks, one hand on the door and prepared to open it if it hears the word.

"Yes, I am ready. Open da door."
He bends low to enter the door, then straightens into an arena-floor salute. His eyes are curious and it seems as if it's been weeks instead of hours since he got the note.

Yuriko:
[SBLOCK]
*As they nod in understanding, Yuriko sets off along the trail for the last time of the day, still a bit tired with all this choppy rest but resolute to continue in spite of that. Along the way, she hears a long howl in the distance. Perhaps it is the Great White Wolf, thought in legends to hunt down corruption, calling to the slowly rising moon.*

*She completes the journey without a problem and goes to sleep one last time, awakening once more to a gentle shaking.*

Zaeryn:
[SBLOCK]
"That sounds like a wonderful plan," Valyssa replies, staring back into Zaeryn's eyes.

"As for Alyria, she said she's going to fly in tonight at Firstdark by the Leviwing hangar...at least I think I remember that's what she said."
[/SBLOCK]

Yotsu Yuriko, Martial Artist

Rystil[sblock]*As Yuriko heard the wolf's call, she thought of the legends . . . that would be all that she needed . . . working so hard to save these people who were kind and gave her shelter for the night . . . only to have the great wolf deal with them . . . and herself for that matter.*

When the others arrived, Yuriko checked the number of hours of daylight left to determine if they should push forward for a few more hours. If there was at least an hour left of full light, Yuriko will urge them onward, not wishing to waste the light left.[/sblock]

Zaeryn T'Erilan, Male Altanian Arcanist

Rystil

[SBLOCK]*Zaeryn cuddles with Valyssa on the bed for several more minutes, just enjoying her proximity, before remarking:*

“I guess we’d better make a move then, seeing as how I’ve slept so late.”

*Slowly extricating himself from Valyssa’s arms, Zaeryn first writes a short note which he leaves on a table near the bed saying that he’s off again on a journey (someone might read it before he gets back), then straightens up the room somewhat, before picking up his spellbook from the bed and packing it into his satchel which he shoulders as they prepare to leave the room. Once ready he scans the room making sure he’s got everything and wondering if there’s something in the room he might need (if there is something he adds that he’s taken it to the note).*[/SBLOCK]

"Well, I never expected going into it to be on a wild adventure fleeing the oppression of Tymadeau forever, battling my own guards to escape...so I guess it exceeds my expectations immensely!"

Kirkesh grins and kisses her softly. "We probably should get some sleep, it has been a long night." He shifts into the female form he was in earlier "Unless you were looking to take advantage of the services" she winks.

"Either way, tomorow we should probably look to find a job on a ship somewhere, and see if we can get out of here and give some time for the heat on you to die down a bit. That, and maybe adjust your wardrobe a bit and see if we can get something a bit less distinct. If you can afford it, we can probably find you a set of clothing like mine, or at least something that's a bit more adjustable. You're quite good at disguising yourself, and it can only help."

Gaius:
[SBLOCK]
*As the door opens and Gaius enters the room, his gaze is diverted from the softly cushioned divans and painting-covered walls to the woman seated before him. He had never seen an Archon before, but he can immediately place her as one, thanks to her shiny golden hair and emerald green eyes. Unlike most Praetorians, who seem built to fight, for function over form, she has a regal beauty about her that makes the couch where she lounges seem almost like a throne.*

"Ah, Gaius. I have been expecting you," she says with a bright smile in a clear, projecting voice used to speaking in front of groups, "Please take a seat."
[/SBLOCK]

Yuriko:
[SBLOCK]
*Without enough full light left for another foray, they prepare to settle in for the night. After a quick dinner, the others go to sleep, leaving Yuriko alone, awake. Looking out over her charges, she sees Yu sleeping normally, Rin lying prone in a deathlike stillness--and she has definitely grown again, this time there is no mistaking it--and Shinoa tossing and turning in terrible paroxysms, her fists clenching and unclenching as her face contorts.*
