OOC: Thanks for waiting on me, Dave.

Sirsei follows Lila and Shalimar up the stairs, throwing a glance back at the men as she goes. Well, saving the girl was worth the tongue-lashing we're going to get. When Lila doesn't seem as angry as she feared, she smiles a little, proud of their accomplishments.
At the mention of Sheriam Sedai, she frowns, "Lila Sedai, if I may, is it really... necessary to tell Sheriam about this? We tried to minimize contact. I know we aren't supposed to channel, but it was for the right reason. I'm willing to face the punishmment for this." She straightens her shoulders a little more, "But then, I don't believe it is a punishable act."
She looks suddenly curious, "Is the trollocs body still around? I don't suppose we could look at it more closely... it might be, ummm, educational...?" She raises her eyebrows hopefully.
She clears her throat, embarassed at her own audacity, "Sorry, Lila Sedai. I think the excitement has been too much for me. Maybe Shalimar and I should go to bed. After a bath, that is. I think I can still smell the trolloc on me."

"Um Sirsei, its dead, what can you learn from it?" She rolls her eyes. She knew how Sirsei got at the merest possibility of learning something, anything.
Why does she always want to learn? They are not the most pleasing things to look at. I did not get that great a look at them and I know I am going to have night mares. And she wants to see it again? *shudders*Yes, a bath is just what is needed to calm me. I really do hope Lila Sedai forgets to mention this to Sheriam. Sheriam would be especially displeased she went harder on Accepted who displeased her then on novices. For novices she was lenient and she was a shoulder to weep on, kind and caring. For accepted who should know better, well she had a strong arm.

"I promised Sheriam I would give her a complete report on what you two did. I did not say that I would keep things from her so that you would avoid scrubbing pots, or so that I would not end up doing penance on a farm a hundred miles from the nearest library." Lila says.
"As for studying the trolloc, you have drawn enough suspicion already, don't you think?" She says. "I would suggest following Shalimar's example in this; I certainly will be."
She says, leaving the two young women alone.

Shalimar sighs after Lila Sedai leaves. She begins to ready herself for the bath and for bed.
"I don't suppouse you know of any weaves to make someone forget something, do you Sirsei? I wish I did. Sirsei, you can read men pretty well, what do you think of the men we met tonight? I don't know what to think of that man Ashrem, I noticed you flirting with him."
She finishes with her bathing and sits on her bed with her arms around her knees waiting for Sirsei's reply.
Within a few moments of getting into the bed however her extensive power use has caught up with her, and she falls asleeep before any reply is given.

Sirsei also readies herself and takes a bath. She frowns, "I wasn't really flirting with Ashrem. At least, not on purpose. It was a simple thing to say. If he's curious, he should stick around." She shrugs. "Of course, I am Domani, and I find that what others consider flirting is perfectly normal conversation for me."
She closes her eyes for a moment, collecting her thoughts, "Ashrem strikes me as arrogant and very touchy. I think it's his background maybe. I'm pretty sure he's Ebou Dari, and they're all like that. Remember Drucilla, that annoying novice who always wants to fight whenever she gets corrected by an Accepted during lessons? I think he was being nice when he offered to protect you, though I understand your reaction. I'd have done the same."
"Tomas is... well, he's handsome. And he tries hard to be charming and debonaire. I don't dislike him, but I am always wary of any man who uses charm to get his way. That's what my mother taught me anyway."
"Jain is Jain. You don't need my opinions of him, but he annoyed me by ordering me about. I'll not take that from any man, except perhaps Yuri. I'll trust him not to lead me wrong in a fight, but the Creator grant there aren't so many of those."
"And I know nothing about Pedron. When I have him figured out, I'll let you know."
She looks over and realizes that Shalimar is asleep. She gets in bed herself, staring at the ceiling, thinking a little(Sirsei isn't as exhausted since she only used 2 0-level weaves) about the trolloc and Lila, and wondering if Sheriam will really punish them. She would not be scrubbing pots over this. As she pondered other options, she fell asleep.

Ashrem stood from the table and motioned to Yuri. "Care to join us?" he asked as he grabbed his ale from the table and motioned Pedron to come with him.
"Maybe in the shed we'll find some trace of how they got this close to the city. And why..." he added with a frown. After me? No. How would they know? Light! I don't even know! Burn me! I want nothing to do with any of this. Bloody Aes Sedai claiming I can channel. She's got me doubting myself. Still, a pitty she died like that. Had it not been for that lightning she called down, I might be dead myself. But why claim that I did it? Blood and ashes...
As he walked out into the cool night air he pushed away that line of thinking. He knew there might be more trollocs or worse and he didn't want to be distracted. He took another sip of ale and waited on the porch for the others, his other hand resting on the hilt of his sword.

Pedron
Pedron comes along, curious as to what they might find in the shed, the stable, or the innyard. He intends to search the shed, at least, thoroughly, sifting through every inch of it with Ashrem's help. <Cue Take 20, cooperative> He also wants to know how the Trollocs got not just into the city, but also into the inn's stable, without being spotted. He doesn't know how smart they are, but he's going to look for any of the usual thief signs. Forced locks, telltale footprints, missing or moved objects. Pedron just doesn't believe creatures that size can sneak into a shed without leaving a trace.
