Spawn of Khyber/LEB Judge
The Artificer and the Wife
Jarrith shakes his Lumin brothers' hands as he takes his leave for the artificer; it seems they will prepare to leave immediately. The archivist grimaces but says nothing at the developments, and instead begins cursing out some of the scribes for their laxness.
The Stalker exits the Tavern in time to see Daellin hustling after the most monstrous but sickly looking albino hawks he had ever seen. Shaking his head in bemusement, he goes to look for Adalstan d'Cannith, head of the few artificers traveling with the Expedition. He finds the young man amongst the damaged parts of one of the two caravan carts that had been salvaged from the wolf attack at the gate, attempting to do some mending. As the curly haired youth turns around, Jarrith is in for a shock---a livid scar of a vicious claw mark now mars the man's face, barely having missed his eye.
Adalstan, still jovial even wounded, quickly gets to the essence of Jarrith's request. "Zor. I can have to you by Zor. Tomorrow would be impossible, but Zor would do ya. Most of today's shot anyhow. Tandis here might be able to get yer wand sometime in the 'morrow, though. Will two days do you for the sword?"
Not having much of a choice, and knowing that Janis had some sort of ritual she said she needed to perform on tomorrow's Wir anyway, Jarrith agrees. Turning around, he sees a couple of villagers point to him, apparently directing a woman in his direction. She is out of the flush of youth but still young, and garbed in what passes for decent clothes in this grief stricken area. Her face is stained with ash, and Jarrith notes by her red eyes that she has recently been crying.
"Master? I have been told by others that you have found my husband? I am Stara, Stara Litmunova. Have you found Viktor?"
