[QUOTE="Hairy Minotaur, post: 1249655, member: 11574"] Xanoniel walks into Thumble alone, as the sun brightens the clouds in the overcast sky. She meets Opee who's checking on the residents, taking stock of damage and food. She waves him down and asks where Tharhack and Rebrey are. Opee tells her they are staying at Durac's old house. She bids him thanks and heads over there. Opening the door, Xanoniel calls out and enters the house. "We're in here!" Rebrey yells back. Walking into the former living room, Xanoniel finds Tharhack and Rebrey sitting up on some old blankets and pillows. "I found Alriand, she's alive." Xanoniel states "Really? I see she decided to show herself" Tharhack responds "She was badly injured, I found her unconscious and severely injured out in the woods. She faced her mistake and she dealt with it." Xanoniel says "So, the witch is dead?" Rebrey asks "I assume so, Alriand had lost a lot of blood and was delirious when I found her." Xanoniel answers "Stupid girl, should've ask for help. We could've turned that witch into stew." Tharhack says looking at Rebrey "Well, the witch did something to her." Xanoniel says "What do you mean?"
