08:44:45xMystrealx : Wb.))
08:45:52Ancient_Daltamare : ty))
08:45:54Ancient_Daltamare : posting now))
08:46:17xMystrealx : Lol ok.)
08:48:25Ancient_Daltamare : -=He remained behind at the forge yet instead of work he was settled in behind the counter with a a barrel of ale and a mug staring off blankly into nothingness. Rarely would he leave unless it was to seek amusement or company of a friend but tonight even the beast would seem fall into a mood of indifference as he sipped away contently. He caught >
08:52:30Ancient_Daltamare : up on everything finally and with little left to do he decided on a nice quiet night. Placing the mug down he twisted about in his chair listening for movement. The town itself silent short of the odd drunkard stumbling by on there way home from the kings head there was not a trace of intelligence out there. After considering his options though he>
08:53:22Ancient_Daltamare : was far from fatigued there was always his usual corner of the phoenix feather to fall asleep in. Oddly it helped pass time without the boredom setting in, unique really in nature but useful=-
08:58:07xMystrealx : -A small knock would come at the forge door. The tapping delicate and barely audible through the room. Her fingers taped the wood as the usual brimming smile was replaced with a little portion of worry. Her hands creased into the new dress that Annora had made her. The fabric fit perfectly to her slim figure now, and the cool material ment she -c-
08:58:23xMystrealx : wasn’t over heating. The white chemise sat off the sholders, the sheer fabric pulled into a draw at the front with an slim ribbon drawstring bow. The black bodice cut under her chest, and kept the centre tight around her middle. The lilac skirt trail forming to her figure and cutting a an inch or two above her knee. Her feet bounced, impatiently -c
08:58:51xMystrealx : as she waited for a reply. The updated appearance topped with the new short crop. A sweeping fringe pushed over her face, framing around her eyes and the short straight shock of fiery russet hair bounced as she bit her lip. Blaze hadn’t turned up anyway. He usually hunted rats, and mice at night and sometime disappeared for an hour or two but she-x
08:59:49xMystrealx : she hadn’t seen him for a good few hours. Coincidentally, and the first knock, a rather grumpy and widely yawning Ferret came hunkering down the stairs from Annoras room. Having fallen asleep under the pillows of her bed, he yawned again as he hopped onto Dalt’s table. Amber eyes sparked. He had to be hear, I mean where else could he be? She had-c-
09:00:17xMystrealx : forgotten to take him Annoras room, yes. That would be it.=
09:10:56Ancient_Daltamare : -=He heard the knocking and figured it could be only one of two people this time of night and either would be welcome company. Rising to his feet he was about to heard towards the door when the ferret would appear out of nowhere. Forgetting the door for a moments time he reached behind the counter to an extra mug and poored it an ale without >
09:12:07Ancient_Daltamare : actually thinking about his actions before placing it down before the fuzzy creature only to then continue the long trek a few feet away answering it finally by swinging it open and inviting Mystreal in=- You should adjust your sleeping schedule better. -=It wasn't safe for her to be out at this time considering the condition of most that roamed >
09:13:31Ancient_Daltamare : the street and he would hate for something to happen. Stepping aside and waiting until she entered only then would he shut the door and return to his seat getting ready to poor her an ale of her own=- Enjoy yourself today? -=He would ask as he reached out to pet the ferret, that was if it didn't run considering how add they were, seemed to suit >
09:13:36Ancient_Daltamare : friend quite well actually in nature=-
09:25:54xMystrealx : to-Amber eyes fed up on him and he was greeted with a polite smile, she cocked her head at the comment. The door was opened a little wider her eyes caught sight of the small creature and she quickly forgot why she had been so worried. Her smile brimmed widely as she past Dalt with a quicker step than usual to scoop the small furball up and cling -
09:26:08xMystrealx : him to her chest. Stood by the counter she cocked her head. Adjust her schedule, whatever for? Her feet bounced and she smiled brightly. “Good morning to you too Sir. Ancient.” The smile that beamed from beneath the new bobbed cut spread across her face, her toes arching and flexing as they added the usual spring into her standing. The second -c-
09:26:36xMystrealx : question however looked like it was about to bring a shrill squeak of excitement out of the girl, placing blaze down on the counter she spun quickly on the spot. One foot lifted as the circle skirt twiled around her thighs lifting a little to float on the spin. It seemed Annora had managed to fit everything well, and the new hair bobbed as she -c-
09:26:54xMystrealx : she bounced. “Oh yes Sir Ancient. I did.” Her voice echoed brightly in the room, and she wrinkled her nose looking down at herself then back up to him. “Do you like it? Annora said it will be much more comfortable.” The fiery red of her hair now lighter without the heavy curls, settled to reveal the golden underlights that threaded through it. -c-
09:27:06xMystrealx : The ale poured her eyes strayed to it. Alcohol was a bad idea in her case, but it would be rude to refuse. One ale spread across the entire night would be fine. She sat the other side of the counter. “Thank you ever so much for your kindness, and baths, and friends and...” Her voice came a little to over the top and she bounced in her chair. =
09:32:44Ancient_Daltamare : -=He drifted back to his chair lazily settling in with a few adjustments of his positioning before he was completely comfortable. Tail a swaying betraying his usual emotionless appearance for it was getting lonely drinking by ones self even if the liquor didn't phase him it was still a social thing with him=- That is good to hear. -=Her second >
09:34:58Ancient_Daltamare : question brought his eyes to open slowly as he examined her head from toe in his own form of vision=- Suits you quite well. Very lovely. -=Before they closing once more. His large paw reaching out to grasp his own oversized mug bringing it to his lips before consuming a large shot=- The clothing as well. -=He was still blind to colour but he could>
09:38:50Ancient_Daltamare : view her appearance other then that clearly though he didn't pry beneath the layers for he valued his own privacy and refused to invade his friends=- No need to thank me. I should be the one thanking you for your company is always delightful. -=Most of the time he dealt with shady characters, one so honest as herself was a rare treat in life=-
09:48:46xMystrealx : -It was a side effect of his ability to cope so well in general daily tasks, and slightly her own lack of concentration that always had her forgetting he was blind. The dark eyes opened and she smiled widely at the answer. The dress had taken Annora a good hour, and the hair the same. Her head cocked again to the side and she wrinkled her nose, -c-
09:48:57xMystrealx : at the thanks he gave her in return. “Sir. Ancient, I wouldn’t stay for the conversation if I didn’t enjoy it.” There was clearly no thanks needed and she bounced in her chair placing her hands flat on the counter and levering a little on it. It meant she hovered above the chair not actually sitting in it properly. Her feet swung under the -c-
09:49:11xMystrealx : the carriage of the chair, energy leeching out through them as they caused her to look a little like she was fidgeting. The smell of blueberry still encompassed her. Her eyes had begun to skip over the interior, fascination brimming as she leaned her neck at the sound of the fires. The banging, and crackling from them could always be hear din her -
09:49:29xMystrealx : her ears but not seen as it had her curiosity eating at her. “Can I see the fires?” She ment in truth the entire thing, but the fire was the only thing she could hear, apart from during the day the scattering of employees. Her fingers spread on the counter she was leant forward in antiscipationg in a slightly over dramatic fashion. “I can always -c
09:50:11xMystrealx : hear them...what are they for?” It was an oddity to her, the smell of metal and the crackles of the fire. The constant heat in the building...she understood what he made, but not quite how. Her fingers tapped the counter as her smile beckoned forward. Excitement almost prickled from her.=
09:56:27Ancient_Daltamare : -=He consumed another pull from the mug before placing it down with a sigh of relief. Sure he couldn't get intoxicated but he did find the liquid oddly refreshing considering the lack of effect on him, must be a side effect from hanging around humans for so long. The rest of his body remaining still unless a shift in motion was required such as >
09:59:45Ancient_Daltamare : refilling his mug or adjusting his balance with the use of his tail=- You can see the fires tomorrow when they are lit. I would suggest not wearing anything valuable. It will be ruined. -=There was a reason why he was typically covered in soot or reaked of fire and smoke. She never was capable of remaining still it seemed always fidgetting in some>
10:00:58Ancient_Daltamare : way, shape or form which amused him to no end. Something though was different this night. His body leaning close to the nape of her neck as his nostrils flared taking in her scent so that the local ones would not interfere=- Some form of berry? You smell sweeter then you usually do. -=Before returning to his original position to take another sip >
10:02:46Ancient_Daltamare : of his drink. Free paw reaching out to the ferret giving it a few pats on the head=- The humans have a different method of forging the raw or then I do which requires much heat to melt it down. Then they use a hammer to shape it, takes much skill and effort. -=He always figured that was the reason why he called such an unbearable place home. Each >
10:04:29Ancient_Daltamare : member put there all into each creation, more less a matter of pride=- Like yourself and your methods for tonics each has there own unique talent in life and each presenting its own challenge. -=For her to gather ingriedients in such a manner must of been tough on her some days, but she always managed a smile and for that she would get much >
10:04:33Ancient_Daltamare : respect from the beast=-

10:21:42xMystrealx : =The small girl hadn’t touched the ale as of yet, she was on the other end of the spectrum. One ale drunk a little too fast and she would be under the table babbling in conherently. Elves weren’t built to fill their bodies with Toxins. They were built for purity. Her eyes dipped to it contemplating, and she sipped a small mouthful wrinkling her -c-
10:22:02xMystrealx : nose at the taste. Her eyes widened as the smile spread across her, and she bounced forward a little. “Really!” The man gave her such rope to take, most would always bat her away or begin getting irritated at the constant lines of inquisition. Dalt just kept step. The fiery tresse bounced until he leant forward. Her bounce stilled slightly, -c-
10:22:29xMystrealx : leaving her leaning back again after he had decided to sniff at her neck. “Oh. Annora gave me some fancy...” She paused having forgotten the word. Translations became tricky when you didn’t have a word for that object in your culture. “some Blueberry.” That was the best she could do. It finally clicked in her head that he was blind again, seeming-c
10:22:49xMystrealx : to remember as she cocked her head. “If t bothers you Sir.Ancient I am ever so sorry.” He probably relied quite heavily on his sense of smell. She didn’t want to hinder that. The thought was soon forgotten as he went into explaination and her body fidgeted. Wriggling in her seat, she watched him with fascination as she seemed to lap up every word-c
10:23:28xMystrealx : of the explanation. His final comment had her head cocking like a confused spaniel, but with a broad beam on her face. “I understand! It must get so terribly hot, especially in all that fur.” Hs fur always smelled of ash, and heat. She thought back to the other day and her words made her giggle. “Why do you never smoosh into the other suit. -c-
10:23:55xMystrealx : Surely it would deal better with the heat?” She never held back questions, whether they seemed to impose or not she just didn’t understand that. If someone didn’t want to answer they would say so. There was no point not asking and never knowing.=

10:48:32Ancient_Daltamare : -=The beast seemed to remain unphased by most events, most irritation showed was when someone broke the rules of the forge other then that he merely accepted life as it came. She seemed authentic about the excitement which was amusing. Most looked at this line of work and thought it was beneath them and yet they required the product which led to >
10:50:14Ancient_Daltamare : general outlook on humanity, a race of hypocrites=- Yes really. -=He spoke as he began the process of refilling his mug, he needed to make a better system for pouring, to much head came out from these ones and warm ale wasn't the best tasting of liquids either=- Worry about what? I wasn't blind forever and I do recall the colour of blue and the >
10:52:22Ancient_Daltamare : very berry you speak of. -=He padded by placing his hand upon her shoulder=- If I am ever insultsed believe me I will let you know. -=Sitting his ass back down into his seat he resumed the drinking until she spoke once more=- I have gaunlets which absorb heat so it bothers me little. -=The beast put on the faintest of grins as he glanced to her=- >
10:52:59Ancient_Daltamare : Why do you prefer the other one? -=Just to gauge her reaction for the sake of entertainment=-
11:08:25xMystrealx : =The excitement was genuine. Unlike most that took the world for granted every set before he in a multitude of colours. People tended to become resolved to things they saw everyday, the key was...Myst was looking through fresh eyes. The human world a was filled with beauty that they all seemed to scuttle past. Their towns always smelled of fresh -c
11:08:42xMystrealx : bread, and meats and a multitude of other things that tantalised the senses. The conversations they had so scattered in their subject. Brushing the now shortened tresses behind her ears it was always hard for her to stay sat still, taking another sip of the ale she made the same scewed face seeming to already have forgotten the bitter taste from -x
11:08:56xMystrealx : first time round. Her smile broadened and she bounced. “I just forget.” She did, she would probably never truly treat him like he was blind, as she was too skittish to remember everytime. Her eyes widened at the last question and she shook her head firmly, even if a small curl of a smile did trace her. “I do not prefer Sir.Ancient.” Her hands -c-
11:09:09xMystrealx : reached out and placed on paws as she leant over the table her fingers instinctively buried into the thick fur as she smiled honestly. “Both have their merits. I just don’t know how you both fit.” Again her eyes studied him with a look as if she was trying to locate a zip or some buttons that were pulled to make the change. She giggled lightly -c-
11:09:24xMystrealx : and her nose wrinkled, leaning forward as if trying to keep something to their ears. “Mr Dalt, is as kind as you...” Her eyes sparkled as she had learnt a few things from the smart mouthed alter ego, one major one was the enjoyment of plays of words. “But I wouldn’t turn my back on him for fear of what he may be looking at.” Another giggle came -c-
11:09:33xMystrealx : and with another grip of the fur in her fingers she moved her hands back. “Why would you assume that either would be preferred, Sir Ancient.” It was like she had put a separation between the two. Different names, and her words treated them as though they could actually stand side by side in a room and both be seen. The retorted question brought -c-
11:09:47xMystrealx : her own amused smiled as she dipped her eyes to Blaze who was lapping at the large cup of ale before him, and become slowly less steady on his feet. “Blaze!” She clapped her hands infront of the creature a few times scooping the cup away, but it was too late ¾ of the liquid had already gone, and the small creature lolled onto his back legs waving-c
11:09:58xMystrealx : in the air with giddy squeaks. “Oh by the trees, you drunkard.”=
11:40:56Ancient_Daltamare : -=He found it odd listening to her reactions of sheer excitement. Was he once that niave that the simplest of things caught his attention? He doubted it but there was a chance since many of his memories of the past short of vital ones were wiped for new ones. There really wasn't much to the beast, enjoyed living a simple life and work kept him >
11:42:50Ancient_Daltamare : occupied and passed time rather rapidly so he stuck to it each day without fail. The constantly changing subject kept him from getting bored so he minded not=- Do not worry I am blind by choice. I didn't want to wake up to view a world without my wife which is no longer in it so I took my own vision and replaced it with these. -=Those orbs opened >
11:45:59Ancient_Daltamare : and he tapped on the metallic shell with his jagged claws=- I can see alot clearer then most. I can the mood people are in, beneath the layers of clothe for any concealed threats and potential weakness in structures which allows me to complete my repairs without much hassle. -=He spoke before falling silent until she spoke of Dalt=- I assumed his >
11:49:03Ancient_Daltamare : name so in the end I guess we are both Daltamare. -=He refused to give his own name to anybody, he enjoyed his privacy from before they became fused immensly=- I didn't assume anything. Just asking for the sake of it. -=Before he forgot he might as well be honest with her=- Besides, Dalt was looking at everything about you. Not just>
11:50:53Ancient_Daltamare : physical in nature. We have something called paranoia. While I know you are pure in nature he always will always be suspect another of something or other. We both have our ways of surviving. He reached out to the ferret scooping it up in his paw to prod at it a few times just to see if it had past onto the next life for if it did supper was served>
11:51:19Ancient_Daltamare : but to no avial. So he would place it before Mystreal=- He might feel a little sick in the morning.
12:00:10xMystrealx : =The was of air around her was still thick, and a little stiffling ut she still brimmed with a smile. So many questions brimmed to her mouth that she didn't quite no where to begin. Amber eyes drew up to foxated on the tapping of claws on something that should of been painful. That was it. Fixation had her and the amber fill of her eyes began to -c
12:02:05xMystrealx : spread with the rich leaf green that starburst in the centre. The odd crawling of colour, came with another childlike smile of fascination as her fingers twitched ut refrained from reachign out. It was hard for her to contain the thick pitying sense that came, her heart squeezing. A species trait that empathy ran thick, it almost rubbed off to -c-
12:04:19xMystrealx : dull the sense of perpetual bright energy and excitment. "I am sorry. My mother died a few ears back, it was hard." The sacrafice came on too young an ear. Love was not something her tribe held, arranged into marriages of breeding potential rather than having choice. The sentiment a little lost on her. Elven ears twitched and her features -c-
12:08:27xMystrealx : took on a softer set of sympathy, for the briefest of moments before back in full strength her smile broadened. It didn't falter as she was informed in a rather cryptic way that the other side could of had a full view of well...more than he should. All the alter ego would have seen would of been skin flesh, and a bright shimmer of natural -c-
12:13:13xMystrealx : ability to control the elements around her that was still wholey undiscovered. There was nothing deeper in Myst. She was surface level with everything. "You know, you both work very hard surviving at all cost. But is survival really worth the work if you don't enjoy everything else it has to offer inbetween?" Her smile sparkled and she suddenly -c-
12:16:00xMystrealx : busied herself in her back pulling out a small bottle. The salts inside gave off a ritch smell, as she pushed them under the passed out ferrets nose and Blaze skitted back into motion with a start. "If you only look ahead of you, imagine the treasures you might walk past along the path." She had almost drawn into the words a little absent -c-
12:18:14xMystrealx : mindedly. But they stung true to her higly exciteable nature. She enjoyed everything, "If he wanted to look he only had to ask." It wasn't as rough edged as it came out. She had nothing to hide persay, so her mind set would of been to just answer the questions. Although the words came out in a a way that they were far to open for misinterpretation.
12:23:30xMystrealx : done >.>))

16:09:28Ancient_Daltamare : -=She seemed to have an unlimited source of energy when it came to maintaining high levels of excitement which piqued his curiousity during there first meeting. Yet this was the first time he actually seen her down since then. He wasn't really depressed and accepted it as a fact of life his wife was gone and yet she still showed such a level of >
16:15:24Ancient_Daltamare : sympathy it affected her mood in such a way=- Things happen in life we can't control. We each deal with it in our own way. -=He took a long pull of his ale before staring at the ground before him as per usual, eyes blinking shut and remaining in such a state. The silence took hold of the forge once more yet never lasted long with Mystreal around >
16:19:38Ancient_Daltamare : and it was proven again briefly after when she spoke=- I enjoy my work very much which is why I continue it even to this day. -=He chuckled to himself=- As well I enjoy things in between or we would not be here this early in the morning. -=Another solid amount of liquid was gone from his mug before it was placed on the counter silently=- We can >
16:20:53Ancient_Daltamare : skip the treasure and make our own which is the advantage of running a smithy. -=Was that a bit of sarcasm coming from the beast even? unusual but not unheard of amongst his friends=- You know, odds are he is going to ask now that you mentioned that.

16:28:25xMystrealx : =Her fingers tugged at the ends of her hair, it was a habit that was going to die hard, the temptation to twirl the curls that no lownger existed. It just left her tugging at the ends. The small elf had fidgetted to the point where she was on her feet. Sitting and talking over ale, was alright for some peoples entertainment. Myst however could -c-
16:35:00xMystrealx : only stay stunted to the spot for so long. "May I make some Tea, please?" Her smile soft, she had to move. Bouncing on her toes the lilac circle skirt twirled around her legs as with her perpetual bouncing, and the loose fabric it never hung still for long. Blaze was back on his back, the small creature rolling his back on the wooden counter.-c-
16:43:51xMystrealx : Gripping the front of her skirt she cocked her head and giggled. "I shall look forward to it I am sure." Her smirk played with that slight spark of mischief, as she waited to an answer as to the tea . Gripping the front of her skirt she at the front she brimemd brightly once more. "If he doesn't sober up, I fear you may have an extra lodger." -c-

16:44:14xMystrealx : ack bnaby on the keyboard!)
16:46:04xMystrealx : as she finally just gave up on trying to twirl the ends and shoved her hand back though her fringe shifting it a little. Her eyes studied him again and a thought caused her to giggle. "How do you two not argue allday long." The sweedt smile trickled and she pattered a little impatiently. It was like being penned in, staying indoors so long made -c-
16:47:03xMystrealx : her feel a little disconnected from the earth. Running her fingers along the counter top, the wood heated a little under her fingers.=
16:55:51Ancient_Daltamare : -=He could likely name a new condition after the elf with the boundless energy she seemed to contain...that was if he cared to study it further. He wondered if she had a tonic for that already but it seems she only had materials to add to it considering she just brought back a drunk unconcious ferret back to reality. Could only imagen using that >
16:58:02Ancient_Daltamare : on her...well actually he didn't want that image in her head for she would be bouncing so fast he doubted with all his senses he could keep track of her=- Feel free. -=Wondering why she asked when she could simply go about her business as she pleased amongst the forge. Just as long as she didn't get in behind him which brought forth a near violent>
17:00:13Ancient_Daltamare : level of paranoia=- I wouldn't look forward to that. -=He knew the other being that occupied his mind better then anyone. Though it still had morales, he would push boundries until there were no more to push which led to much more trouble then required to merely exist=- I wouldn't mind the squirrel as a drinking partner. -=Seemed better then most >
17:01:47You have been marked as being away.
17:03:03Ancient_Daltamare : humans he knew and didn't rant as much. He offered the ferret what was left of the ale it was lapping away at earlier just out of curiousity if blaze would go for it=- We figured out a way to work together. One of us operates and the just takes watch for any threat or abnormalities that may be lurking about. -=The beast oddly enough took over all >
17:03:45Ancient_Daltamare : aspects of the business. The Ancient was allowed to take over at any other time it really felt the urge to though it was few and far in between unless it was forced out, namely when in the homid form=-
17:04:22xMystrealx : =She had penty of tonics in her bag that would have left even him rocketing off the walls twitching for two days. Actually...if anything she had to take tonics just to keep her on an even keel. Mystreals blood iron was low, which meant daily does of Burdock or libelia otherwise she ended up about as life filled as a dead cabbage. It was genetic.-c-
17:09:06xMystrealx : Turning her back on him she asked out of manners, afterall this was not her home. Finally able to move a little more freely her muscles almost sighed in relief of the freedom of not being sat. Dropping her bag on the mantle her fingers pulled out a variety of different ingredients. Before she busied herself putting the pot over to boil. -c-
17:13:01xMystrealx : A little of the energy was dulling it was still there but just blunted as she forced herself to concetrate on what she was doing. Her body still bouced but her fingers moved with grace. "Why not? It is not like I am stupid Sir. Ancient." Her fingers dropped different strands of green leaves in the boil. "You little brain mate may have a silver -c-
17:14:50xMystrealx : tongue, but it doesn't mean he can make jewellery." Her smle brimmed to herself. In truth she wouldbn't have the faintest idea what to do if the male pushed the point. She would probably just giggle and avoid the subject. Dropping the burdock into the boil she stirred carefully. "He's a ferret" Giggling a little at the bubbles in the bowl. Blaze-c-
17:15:44xMystrealx : lapped at the ale glad to have an accomplice in his stealthy drinking. Squeaking in a droning tone as after he had finished the mug he hiccoughed and clumsily hopped onto Dalt's shoulder.=
17:16:24Sybilla·Covelin : Morning came, Sybilla was up, bathed, dressed and had padded down the stairs to for the morning run down with her assistants. Also apologized for her recent absences. Commended the assistants on the job they've doing without her. And, best of all, handed out their pay with a little extra on top. All the doors and shutters were opened /c/
17:16:39Sybilla·Covelin : up wide to allow the passing breeze from the ocean through both the downstairs and the upstairs. It didn't make it cool but it made it more comfortable. With the assistant's set in what needed to be finished Sybilla wandered back up the stairs to leave a note for the sleeping being in the other room: going to the forest. Breakfast /c/
17:18:46Sybilla·Covelin : is being kept warm downstairs. Come find me if you wish.~ A satchel made of deer skin was snagged from a cabinet, the strap drawn over her shoulder before she headed back down the stairs and off towards the forests. It'd been some time since she acknowledged the blessings of the great spirits. Within the satchel were highly /c/

18:11:48CathaoirMacDonnchadh : 'Cathaoir woke coughing in the upstairs of the tannery. It was still fairly dusty and with it not being officially his shop yet he wouldn't go to the lengths to make it as clean as possible. He stumbled free of the makeshift bed of a sheet and some crates. The bed that was up there had looked only good for burning. One could only guess at how <c>
18:11:56Sybilla·Covelin : Passed the guards of the city gate, she ventured off the road into the forest. There was a space that Sybilla had found which was as close to "home" feeling as she could manage. A small break in the trees revealed a clearing near the stream. The satchel was set down at the center of the space. From the bag a wolf pelt was withdrawn. The /c/
18:12:07Sybilla·Covelin : wolf pelt had hawk feathers braided into the fur along with beads and metal that had been bent into cones. The pelt was handled with all the delicacy and respect that one might handle a bible or an altar. Once laid out, she drew out a deer skin dress ornately decorated with more beading. The beading matched the marking on her /c/
18:12:19Sybilla·Covelin : hip. It was more than just a mark. It was an identifier. Who she was. Nashoba. Wolf. It was a great designation among her mother's people to be given that name. The wolves were seen as protectors of humankind. As guides to their human brethren. A very different view from the rest of the world she'd seen when it came to attitudes /c/
18:12:29Sybilla·Covelin : about what she was. Tory had been right. His words had been playing over in her head more and more. Wolf, not a spaniel. It didn't just encompass her fears but the way she'd begun to live her life. There was nothing wrong with living in human world. It was that she was beginning to let go of how she was raised. Not an uncommon thing /c/
18:12:38Sybilla·Covelin : among wolves who lived outside the bounds of their world for some time. Sybilla stared for sometime at the dress and then laid it out on the grass next to the pelt before she removed the clothing she came in and slid the dress on. Words of her mother's language were softly uttered in thanks to the great spirit for keeping her safe and /c/
18:12:57Sybilla·Covelin : for keeping those she loved safe. Not only that but she asked to give her guidance during the dance, to open her ears and heart to anything the spirits might want her to hear, see, or understand. And with that Sybilla lifted up the wolf pelt and placed it onto her back. The head of the wolf on her head, hands into the paws. In her mind /c/
18:13:31CathaoirMacDonnchadh : <c>many critters of varying sizes had made it their home. He swept up his satchel and carefully climbed down the stairs. The light coming through the mostly cleaned windows made him wince and close his eyes. "Damn sun and it's evil blasted light and heat." He grumbled as he felt his way to the door. He slipped out of the tannery and closed up <c>
18:15:39CathaoirMacDonnchadh : <c>behind him. It was time he went to the forge again and pay for his supplies that he could get right away. He needed to get hunting or fishing or both.

18:16:01Sybilla·Covelin : she could hear the rhythmic drums that would have normally been thundering through the area. Bare feet stomped into the ground. The metal cones on the wolf pelt began to knock against each other. And Sybilla lifted up her head to let out a loud howl. And so began the dance and chant. /d/
18:17:00CathaoirMacDonnchadh : <c>way to the forge, entering the store front and hobbling to the counter. "Tully is a bad person to follow after." He grumbled aloud. He set the satchel on the counter and pinched the bridge of his nose.'

However, she'd come to learn that when people saw a person face covered /c/

Why was she working <c>

And Tory still cares for her. That thought allowed a frown to swiftly appear before disappearing again. "Besides, as far as I can tell she's been behaving." Maybe /c/
19:15:55Sybilla·Covelin : she'd behave more now that Sybilla had proved her dominance. Maybe. Or she'd lash out and Sybilla would have blood on her hands. "It's complicated, I guess." /d/

22:13:39Ķąlęb : -The wolf noted her undertone of irritation. Perhaps a lot more had changed in his absence than he thought. She'd gone down the same road he had by the looks of things...and he knew how messy that could get.

He was just lucky she hadn't called in the hunters...or decided she wanted a peek and opened the door. Didn't really bare thinking about. "Jaci found her -c-

22:19:33ᴥАññóřãᴥ : +She nodded softly. "Aye- I know. I used to live in the country. I didn't wear shoes in summertime until I was seventeen." She said with a smile, ruffling her own girls. She was getting blasted on the good whiskey. "Water isn't cool? Och. No, not here. Stream in the forest. It was too hot here. Then Cathaoir stumbled across me, he was bleeding <c>
22:19:49Ķąlęb : reason in things Sybi...looking for the answers ya want and eventually ya'll find them..." Okay, he was being an ass. Nothing new there. But with her he wasn't usually that bad. Maybe he was just worried...or...something.-

She raised the mug to meet his toast and answer his question. "Och, I suppose the story isn't over yet, but I've a fair few chapters under my belt." She said, drinking to the toast, before lifting the mug again. "To Kat. <c>

Or a lot too much. Or, the man was in fact actually green. None of those would surprise her at this point." She let out a deep breath.+

22:27:46CathaoirMacDonnchadh : 'Cathaoir came into the forge like he was supposed to to get patched up. When he came in he saw Annora drinking with Dalt's human form and she hadn't changed. He suddenly felt as if he was barging in on something he didn't want to witness. Sure Dalt was blind and could only see her in skin tight clothes if he actually felt her up, but by the<c>

22:29:42CathaoirMacDonnchadh : <c>look on Annora's face and the mugs, they had both been drinking. His fears from earlier this morning had grown almost a hundred fold. It was as if he was witnessing the moment in the interrogation all over again. An older man sitting blind in a chair and her at his side so comfortably. His adam's apple rose up and dropped as he gulped <c>
22:31:52CathaoirMacDonnchadh : <c>silently. He was still covered head to toe in his and the fox's blood, more his own than the fox's. He wasn't sure what he was doing there now. As he stared at Annora there seemed no way she could patch him up like she had offered to him only a couple hours ago. There was a hidden pain in his eyes. His right hand was clenching hard enough<c>
22:34:31CathaoirMacDonnchadh : <c>that he started to bleed through the improvised bandage. "I'm sorry - I seem to have interrupted ..." There was a hint of confusion and dismay in his voice. He stepped backward, eyes darting between them quickly. Was he too slow again? Did he just suffer more bad luck for his troubles? His mind was racing and asking so many questions in so<c>
22:36:02CathaoirMacDonnchadh : <c>little time. Dalt was a succesful businessman and Cathaoir was only just playing at becoming a tanner- the baron was well to do and she married him and got used to that life. Maybe she wanted more than he could offer her. He tried to look like nothing had changed as he took another step back to turn away.'|F|
22:36:23Sybilla·Covelin : "I have no plans to... make it permanent." That was a new thought. One she found she was strangely believing herself. It threw her a little, got her silent for more than a few steps while that jaw muscle worked overtime as it had been doing lately. "You ever think I might be perfectly happy having him just the way he is?! No, because /c/
22:39:13Sybilla·Covelin : you can't imagine yourself ever being happy that no else can be either." It was a huff. She would get the same type of flack from her parents and the council if she ever said that she wanted to mate with a human and keep him human. Then there was the bitten gone wrong comment which only added to the fire. All that fighting lately had /c/

22:56:54Ķąlęb : -No plans she said. Wasn't that what all women said and it never lasted...He doubted she'd be any different. Man was he jaded today. "So you just leave him human? Watch him die?

23:03:54ᴥАññóřãᴥ : +Annora nodded softly, smiling a bit. "Aye. I only wore sheepskin boots until my marriage, where I was shoved into a pair of heels. It was neither beautiful, nor graceful." She said. She looked to Cathaoir as he entered, blushing again and pulling the linen from where it had settled against her skin. It floated out, and was then not revealing <c>
23:05:46Sybilla·Covelin : Oh, fists curled and Sybilla could have knocked him to the ground when he started talking. Idiot? If she was willing to respect Tory enough to let him live as a human then she highly doubted that qualified her as an idiot. As for forgetting what she was? Well, how the hell did that fit in?! Maybe, just maybe she was doing the complete /c/
23:05:54Sybilla·Covelin : opposite and had embraced it enough that she had no need to flaunt it around for everyone else to judge. As Kaleb marched off, Sybilla continued toward the bakery where some pillows would suffer an unfortunate and violent end sending feathers throughout the apartment above the bakery. /d/
23:06:16Sybilla·Covelin : I need to get some sleep. So I can get up early and become an employed person. Whoo hoo)

23:08:14ᴥАññóřãᴥ : <c> at all- floating around her as linen should. She nodded her head as Dalt commented on Kat's death, not saying the quick quip that had nearly forced itself from her mouth. 'It's even worse to see it' might have been appropriate before Cathaoir walked in, but not after. She looked between the two men as the exchanged words, a raised eyebrow <c>
23:11:22ᴥАññóřãᴥ : <c> at Cathaoir. "Aye, probably for the best. That shirt'll need to be trashed- it's soaked with blood." She said, looking him over. "I've a few shirts in my trunk that should fit you- figured a man'll need more than just one shirt. And bandages as well." She added thoughtfully, standing. "I'll get them. Dalt, you might want to explain to him <c>
23:12:45ᴥАññóřãᴥ : <c> about the runes." She said, before turning and carefully taking the stairs one at a time to her room. She closed the door behind her, pulling off the wrinkled linen dress and pulling on a proper chemise, before the wrinkled dress went back on. They were comfortable clothes, and who was she trying to impress? The blindman, or the man <c>
23:13:28ᴥАññóřãᴥ : <c> who had already seen her naked that day? The chemise made everything fit a little better though. Her rag basket was retrieved, as well as the two clean work shirts.+

23:18:14CathaoirMacDonnchadh : 'Cahaoir smiled faintly at Dalt's slight chiding. He turned to Annora when she said the shirt needed to be trashed. "No! Not the shirt ...

"I can't -please don't- You have any one of hundreds of memories, even bad ones - All i have left of a past I dont want to forget is this shirt and<c>

And this shirt also has the same embroidery on it that was on our daughter's christening gown ...it's the closest thing I have to having a piece of her with me." He looked at her very emotionally. "Please don't take that from me Ann." He looked down at the shirt. he would try everything to get it cleaned and would hope<c>
23:23:43CathaoirMacDonnchadh : <c>to mend it up. He just couldn't give up something like that. Maybe it was the remaining alcohol, maybe the emotions of seeing her naked and her scars, maybe his wounds, who knew. He was simply resolved about it beyond many other recent things. He watched her walk away and limped to the kitchen. "Runes in the hot spring?" He asked gently<c>
23:28:10CathaoirMacDonnchadh : <c>the blood loss and his stupidity and assumption earlier making him take a calm approach. "Annora said something about them. Will my bleeding in it effect it? I assume for some reason I can't be clothed when I enter?" He said unsure. He thought he had heard something about that at some point the other day. He couldn't be sure though.'|F|

23:42:01Ancient_Daltamare : reason the dye in clothing and metal mess with them. They are not cheap to replace nor easy to make. -=He had to do it once and he wasn't about to make a repeat performance=- Blood no, I wouldn't suggest a drink until you get treated though. Thins the blood so you won't last as long.

23:45:01ᴥАññóřãᴥ : +Annora heard what he said, coming back downstairs. "Put the shirt to the side, I will collect it and see what I can do." She said, knowing that cause was lost. Perhaps something else could be done, however. She grabbed his arm lightly and draped the clean shirt over a place there was no blood to stain it. "Try and keep that clean until you need <c

Sober or falling down drunk, even in the pitch black with enemies <c
23:52:49ᴥАññóřãᴥ : <c> on her heels, she could stitch a wound closed and bandage it properly. It came with being a seamstress, and not a particularly squeemish one.+
23:56:30CathaoirMacDonnchadh : 'Cathaoir rolled his eyes at Annora when she mocked him gently about the soap. He looked into her eyes. "I'd be a fool to believe this soap is the same as one my mother personally made 3 years ago Sparrow. " He looked back to Dalt with a nod.
