Mari Erilo: i am trained in hiding and being quite yes
Aron P'rezli: to the east, if the amulet holds its course? Lady Saraphin?
Lytha: {pets her hair}
Saraphin: toward you. is that east?
Mari Erilo: *gulps* as you wish maglor
Maglor the Singer: Then, it would be best to have you and Aron scout ahead
Aron P'rezli: yes, let me know if that changes, or let mari know *nods*

Maglor the Singer: I'll get the next batch we happen upon
Saraphin: I seem off ballance
Lytha: ooc - she carries no weapons of any kind that you can see. And her pack looks almost empty.
Aron P'rezli: ahhh nice, some materials as well
Maglor the Singer: Let's press on. before the orcs return

Maglor the Singer: Aha!
Lytha: {looks at her wierd}
Mari Erilo: *looks away sadly*
Aron P'rezli: they seem bent on guarding something... not very talkative even for orcs
Lytha: {hair all frizzled} ouchies..
Maglor the Singer: Yes, they're guarding something alright
Lytha: How can I play ... Where my playmate? [looks around}
Maglor the Singer: If the pattern holds true, we will be in for a mighty test

Philip Cruz'ado: Lady Sara? I'm sorry.
Lytha: Go away hand. Leave Philip alone
Saraphin: what for?
Maglor the Singer: Well done
Philip Cruz'ado: I shouldn't have let it get so close.
Saraphin: *blinks*
Aron P'rezli: I see no others close by
T.A. Grimbergen: This is surely more that a test, Maglor...
Maglor the Singer: Are there any arrows to be had?
Saraphin: oh *
Aron P'rezli: let us head this way then
Maglor the Singer: What do you mean, Grimbergen?
Lytha: What mean Amanda?

Philip Cruz'ado: eh? Maglor.
Aron P'rezli: *gathers sticks to make a small fire*
Lytha: {turns pale} Broken?
T.A. Grimbergen: Some oppressive dark force is surely bent on destroying us, not test...
Saraphin: yes
Lytha: NO!!!!!!! NOOOOOOOO!!!!!! {screeching}
Maglor the Singer: well, yes......and Ranther is not least among our enemies
T.A. Grimbergen: Maglor -- arrows!

Mari Erilo: calm that soul philip, she shall bring everything in the woods upon us.. with that noise
T.A. Grimbergen: What is the matter, child?
Small Fire to Make Arrows and Bolts: The campfire you have built just gives off enough heat to melt the glue for you to make arrows or bolts. So what you like to do?
Philip Cruz'ado: What's wrong?
Lytha: {tears flowing} Amanda broken....
Aron P'rezli: *takes wax and feathers from his pack* Make Arrows

T.A. Grimbergen: [More Emotes]. [More Emotes] - What would you like to do?
Small Fire to Make Arrows and Bolts: The campfire you have built just gives off enough heat to melt the glue for you to make arrows or bolts. So what you like to do?

Maglor the Singer: *Time it was and what a time it was
Lytha: {cries harder} No more sister. Broken..... {balling}
T.A. Grimbergen: hmmm wood is easy to come by...but feathers
Maglor the Singer: *We laughed in innocence. *A time of promises. *Broken, broken
Aron P'rezli: actually, if I could rest, I could perhaps persuade my animal friend to part with a few
Maglor the Singer: I wrote that for Lytha
Lytha: {cries herself to sleep}
Maglor the Singer: Because she believes we are all broken
T.A. Grimbergen: Well done, Maglor. It is too true...
Aron P'rezli: I am most certainly not broken
Philip Cruz'ado: *drapes his cloak over her, very carefully*
Aron P'rezli: *scans*
Saraphin: *looks at Aaron oddly*
Maglor the Singer: What is it, tears at your soul, Aron?
T.A. Grimbergen: [Whisper] Mari is what tears at him, is it not, maglor?
Maglor the Singer: *waits
Aron P'rezli: *looks down in thought* purpose
Maglor the Singer: *smiles
Aron P'rezli: *scans*
Maglor the Singer: *strokes chin
Philip Cruz'ado: *settles quietly behind the stone to watch outward*
Saraphin: [Whisper] TA I can hear you
Lytha: {slowly stands and looks around} Philip?
Philip Cruz'ado: *quietly* Here, Lytha.
T.A. Grimbergen: [Whisper] That's fine Sara... as long as Aron doesn't! *smile
Lytha: Oh..
Aron P'rezli: I will take rest here
Lytha: I have'a find Josephine.
Maglor the Singer: A melancholy lot we have become!
Saraphin: [Whisper] it is not good for you to speculate, I do know what ails him
Mari Erilo: *watches aron over her shoulder for a moment, before crossing her arms and tunning everyone out*
Kadarr : [Shout] DM: Don't get in the habit of resting in armor, I MAY have the resting script activated sometime this year :)
Maglor the Singer: We should all rest
T.A. Grimbergen: [Whisper] Aye...point taken, mother...
Lytha : {hangs head in shame}
Maglor the Singer: Although I feel we stopped to early
Saraphin: *cries*
Philip Cruz'ado: Josephine? isn't she walking the edge of the camp?
Aron P'rezli: TA,
Maglor the Singer: We should have pressed on further before resting
Lytha: Where?
T.A. Grimbergen: [Shout] *raises fist * curses, Kadarr!!
Aron P'rezli: have you shafts for arrows?
Maglor the Singer: And now, I will sleep
Philip Cruz'ado: Just wait, Lytha. She'll be around.
Lytha: Josephine? {smiles shyly at Sara}
T.A. Grimbergen: Unfortunately, Aron... I have not. I knew I should have purchased a hatchet at the trader depot...
Lytha: Josephine?
Aron P'rezli: as should I...
Saraphin: *vomits*
Aron P'rezli: but coin has been hard to come by since my leaving the forest
Maglor the Singer: And what was that, Grimbergen?
Maglor the Singer: Gold comes and goes, Aron
Lytha: Are you sick Sara?
T.A. Grimbergen: A hatchet for woodcutting, Maglor. Indeed Aron... though we are lords of Esirup, out moneybags surely do not reflect that
Lytha: {smiles] You should lie down if you are sick
Maglor the Singer: It is like water that rushes over you: sometimes plentiful, sometimes barely a trickle
Lytha: Josephine?
Lytha: {pouts] She is not here.
Philip Cruz'ado: Oh, Josephine.
Maglor the Singer: Well, if all are rested, we should be on our way
Saraphin: ooh I feel terrible
Philip Cruz'ado: You mean Kyil.
Aron P'rezli: it appears all this has been for naught, I haven't the materials needed
Maglor the Singer: What is it, Sara?
T.A. Grimbergen: Kyil?
Lytha: k.. keye'l? No, Josephine.
Kadarr : [Shout] DM: The fire goes out....
Aron P'rezli: are you allrright?
Philip Cruz'ado: What does Josephine look like?
Saraphin: it is normal
Aron P'rezli: *looks away*
Maglor the Singer: There is little enough in this world that I have found to be normal
Aron P'rezli: Shall we move then?
Lytha: {smiles} She's pretty, light hiar. This high. Likes greens and browns clothing. And skinny. Why is he here?!?!?
Aron P'rezli: *smiles* you ready?
T.A. Grimbergen: *Looks sadly at Lytha
Lytha: Why is Silver Cream here? He shouldn't BE here!
Aron P'rezli: Lady Saraphin, the amulet?
Philip Cruz'ado: He is a Lord, Lytha. He helps lead.
Saraphin: Cause he chokes if he does not come, as do I
Lytha: Why?
Saraphin: I... um...
Philip Cruz'ado: *nods* That too, Lady.
Saraphin: feels pretty much the same
Lytha: Murderer!
Saraphin: really not to comfortable
Lytha: GO AWAY Pointies!

Saraphin: My spells
Aron P'rezli: uhnn. *out of ammo, aron stares at Lytha helping her friends*
Maglor the Singer: well, that was a tough fight!
Mari Erilo: *looks away sadly*
T.A. Grimbergen: Aye...must....rest
Lytha: ouchies. {smiles shyly}. Aron?
Aron P'rezli: yes?
Lytha: I have these..
Philip Cruz'ado: Don't waste the magic, my Lady.
Aron P'rezli: *!(

Aron P'rezli: *smiles*
Saraphin: ow. *looks down*
Philip Cruz'ado: Thank you, my Lady.
Saraphin: Thanks Maglor
Lytha: {stares at Silver Cream}
Maglor the Singer: Tough orcs
Aron P'rezli: obviously we are somewhere that we are not wanted
Mari Erilo: *shivers slightly at maglors words*
Philip Cruz'ado: Their magic was the problem.
Aron P'rezli: *scans*
T.A. Grimbergen: Isn't that a compliment, Mari?
Maglor the Singer: Yes, such an unfriendly folk, those orcs
