-''You and your obsession with meeting arcanists! What's the big deal? I've met you, and let me tell you, you're no great shakes.'' Mal grumbles. ''All right! I'll go with you. Don't want to see you knifed in a dark alley because you were harassing a panhandler magician for trade secrets or blown to bits by a crazy alchemist who thought you wanted to steal his secret recipe for potions of male enhancement...''

Mal gathers his gears and walks with Arden to the exit.

-''We go in, we say 'Hi', we ask how much, you wrangle yourself an invitation to a tea party with the pointy cap crowd and then we go back for supper, right?''
 

As usual, Arden is slightly taken aback by Mal's way of addressing him: Well, don't you wish to exchange combat maneuvers when you meet a fellow warrior, sir Malenkirk?, he remarks, Anyway, I thank you for your assistance, he concludes, drinking the wine left in his cup and standing up.

ooc:so are we going? after all we're the only two playing at the moment so, it's a way to kill time while WD and Velmont are back
 

-''Exchange combat maneuvers?'' Mal snorts. ''No, I don't do that. When you meet another fighter, you never know if you won't have to fight him somewhere down the line. Until you are satisfied that you won't, the last thing you want to do is show him your techniques! Beside, I know how to fight. I've been intensively trained for many years. What I need to do is practice what I learned over and over, test myself continually and discover what works best for me. Asking an axe wielding dwarf or an elven bladedancer how they do it would be rather pointless. We fight nothing alike. The only thing I'd get out of it is learning how best to kill them. They would know it, too, so I couldn't trust their answers anyway.''

The duo walk into the streets toward house Deluna.

"Hey, can I go with you? Drinking alon makes me sad.

And about techniques, it's just the question, what spirit posses you during the fight.

... But it's good to know your enemies style ;)"
Ragnar asks and answers as he stands up.

The factor for House Deluna is an eladrin named Veldarin. He is usually found in a small office he rents above an apothecary near the makeshift docks.

While obviously quickly built, the apothecary's building is quite solid. You can hear the noise of the men working the barges on the docks. You do notice that the docks almost seem out of scale for this ramshackle town.

You open the door to the office after walking up a slightly dodgy set of stairs. Sittting behind a next, you see him working with a pen and ink on some documents. He looks up at you with a mixture of disdain and curiosity. His close cropped white hair only emphasizes the cast of his fey features. "Come in, all of you, and state your business with House Deluna."
 

-''An Eladrin named Veldarin? Is this serious?'' Mal whispered to his companions. ''It's like a human named Vamunh! I bet it's just an alias.''

Eager to get this over with, Mal steps forward.

-''Hey. Here is our letter of introduction.'' Mal says, handing the parchment. ''And just so you know, you are about to be peppered with questions about wizards.''
 

Show some respect! whispers back Arden at Mal, swiftly subtracting him the letter of introduction.
Greetings, master Veldarin, it is a honour to know you. says Arden, bowing briefly. He shows the letter, and in doing so, continues: We are indeed here to declare our interest in working with house Deluna, and be introduced by a prestigeous member such as you. And, of course, if this is of interest to you... in discussing matters arcane! cocludes the wizard, somewhat affectedly.

Ragnar whispers back at Mal.

Named Veldarin, the eladrin :cool:

Oops, figured out, the others left also the tavern. Ragnar needs more ale!

Aelek is taking a mug of ale and relax at the Inn with Angel. "I can't believe Mal have accepted to follow to follow Arden... knowing him, he will try to bargain his way a better contract then the one we will have. I'm not just sure he can do it. Wizardry have never been his kind of things."
