Tale Weaver's Vampire: The Masquerade Game Board

I'm making her run towards Prestors house since its the only place that seems to be close to a forest that I know of. Are there any closer forests nearby?

Prestor's house isn't really close to a forest. There are woods in the Hinterlands outside of Denver (either North towards Boulder or towards the south where you were the last time where you fought the bull). Ruby might run to Prestor's house because she still feels an attachment towards him.

The Broadstreet

After an awkward moment, Clover and Mindy looked at each other with questioning eyes, and Clover shrugged at Mindy as though to say, "And no, I don't know where we got this one from. Just smile and nod."
And that's exactly what she did: She smiled at Lacey and bowed her head as though she had never heard anything so beautiful. Then she turned in a graceful attempt to bow out of having to converse any further with the crazy one.
Ruby and Koln were gone, and she could only imagine what kind of conversation they were having now. Somehow, she envisioned that a scene from a soap opera was going on out there, and she felt bitter green envy frothing up in the pit of her stomach again for just the briefest of moments before she began to worry that Mindy could read her like an open book.
Shrugging the feeling aside and letting her face relax into casual lines, she turned to her friend and made every attempt to ignore Lacey, "So, did you and Ruby have a good time out there? You and her probably have a lot to talk about, with being... um... red-headed country girls and all..." She finished the statement a bit lamely after realizing that she really was just trying to pass the time and really had nothing interesting to say.

Mindy seems to be lost in the moment and says rather distantly looking towards the door where Ruby and Koln made their exit "I feel sorry for her, in fact I feel sorry for both of them..."

When you both turn around Lacey is gone.

The Broadstreet

Koln stands motionless for a moment after she leaves him, only to regain his senses at the feeling of Socrates scurrying about in his pocket. He sprints off after Ruby but soon loses sight of her. He meekly walks back to Broadstreet and sits on the corner. "Better get used to this Socrates, soon this will be reality. Everyone will go away and it will just be us and then it will be me and God help me from there. I didn't ask for her to love me Socrates, don't get me wrong, I love her too for many reasons. But I have no idea why she cares about me. Maybe it's because she thinks she knows me. Once she sees she's wrong... well you saw what happened. I guess I should enjoy it while I can, before the concept of 'love' and especially romantic attraction become nothing more than petty tools for me to capture prey."

Socrates says "They will only go away if you push them away. Besides, how can you love someone else when you can't even love yourself? A wise sailor once said 'Sometimes God calms the storm. At other times, he calms the sailor.' Oh and be sure to eat all of your spinach!"

"Socrates, you know what's happening. If I we were all human then maybe your advice would be relevant but, I'm sorry, it's not. Ruby is slowly becoming more feral, and I am becoming more insane. It won't be long before she resorts to running on all fours and chasing cars while I will be content with eating furniture and trying to slay buses I mistake for dragons and monsters. We will not remain together for long. She will find a pack of other gangrel to be with, Clover will be driven by ambition to greater things, and I will remain alone. And what's wrong with hating myself? The Bible says we should be humble, and how can one be more humble than detesting themselves? At my best, I'm a tool, and at my worst I cause everyone around me pain."

Koln continues to heatedly talk with the rodent in his hands as he sits on the sidewalk in front of the club, no doubt providing some interesting discussion for those that walk by. "And when I'm not a tool, or worthless, I'm a funny sideshow, a creep and weirdo. What the hell am I doing here?! I don't belong here... not in this 'reality.'"

Alrighty then Prestor's house it is She can take refuge there if the sun comes up soon. Depending on what happens next she can try to travel for a bit afterwards.

Ok. Well I know this is fun and all but you guys running off without anyone else knowing where you are is going to slow down the story a lot. Not to mention, Ruby was there when the guy at the Broadstreet said that Edward wanted to meet with you....just putting that out there.

Jacob Prestor's house stands broken and lonely as it was when Ruby was there last. She can't help but remember scenes from that night. The last night that Ruby ever saw Jacob alive.

While Koln is talking to Socrates and getting weird looks from people passing by an emo looking kid sits down next to him. "Hey man, I know how you feel, no one understands me either. Sometimes, I feel like life just isn't worth living. And then, I write about it in my Livejournal and it makes me feel better. At least you have that rat to listen to you, I guess the rat is kinda like my Livejournal....except less depressing."

Sigh, alright I won't make her stay long here anyway she just needed a breather
Ruby walks inside the shambled house and heads to the room just above the hidden basement. She slumps down on the floor, wiping her wet face with the back of her hand. "Now I really wish you were here again.." she talked idly to the room. "There are still so many questions I want to ask. I'm still angry with you, but I think i'm beginning to forgive you day by day. You had good intentions and seemed to be a good man..but.." she veered her direction to where the fridge was supposed to be that night remembering him trying to comfort her before the danger arrived.
"I wish you can also tell me if vampires can ever truly love despite all this darkness?"
She picked herself off the ground and walked outside the house. I need to be strong now, no more tears, for their sake and my family's She thinks of one last thing to do before she heads back to the club again.
Beckoining for that crow who nested in the area if he is still around. If he doesn't show up, she will still be on her way back to Broadstreet again

Ruby
[sblock]
Upon Beckoning, you hear the familiar flap of wings as the raven swoops down to you. He lands on your extended arm and perches there. "Hello again." he says. "I figured you would come back, this place feels strange. The other night I saw a man with a sword. He raised the sword over the ground right in this room and the sword started glowing! Then he left." The raven starts preening himself and then looks up at Ruby again "Are you sad? I'll have you know that because of your help I found a mate! Yes! A lady raven came to my nest! I must thank you again for helping me."
