17:11:16«Ąbŗąxąş» : -The return to Thorndale and it's capital of Hadara had been a long trek. People tended to forget that as a centaur you couldn't simply hop on a horse and let the beast do the work...He didn't have that luxury. It was his hooves that had taken the long gallop back from Tonera'Mor, his shoes that had worn down. It wasn't so bad...he was built for-c-
17:14:04«Ąbŗąxąş» : long distance, the powerful body of a warhorse a handy thing to have really. Lucky for him the troop of men he'd had with him didn't have the luxury of switching horses during the journey so he was given resbite he would never ask for. The gates of Hadara were a welcome sight, the city a place most soldiers yearned to serve in...there was no -c-
17:15:54«Ąbŗąxąş» : honour in the army greater than protecting the rulers of this broad, seemingly endless land of Menouthis. The centaur drew eyes, the usual double take when people realised he was not a man on horse back...but a man that was also a horse. It wasn't anything new to him...his kind were so sparse amongst the civilised realm of humans that few people-c-
17:20:22«Ąbŗąxąş» : had ever encountered them...they kept to themselves, living within their clans so he didn't shy from the obvious attention. Let them look.

He tossed a young man on a horse beside him a purse of coins before turning to face the -c-

"Your journey has been hard...but for most of you now you are home...rest up, take a few days of leave and meet me at the barracks once you're rested...Try not to catch anything too contagious lads..." he offered a wry grin before turning to leave the -c-

He was supposed to be on welcoming duty for the>

17:44:48«Ąbŗąxąş» : -The centaur had a particularly horse like way of transporting his equipment...it wasn't as if he could wear a pack on his back so it was saddlebags all the way it seemed. Once inside the barracks he caught the attention of a passing hand, a lad no doubt intending to graduate to the life of a soldier when he wasn't so scrawny and lacking in-c-

"You aught ta be careful little man...or this horse might just start kicking..." The sheer size of Abraxas seemed to be enough-c-
17:55:43Sīεgfгїεδ : The fighter walked back towards the city, his trip had only been a day or so, but he had been able to get a few of the things that he had required to travel, or at least survive without having to spend so much on meals. Siegfried carefully made his way through the streets, looking for perhaps something interesting to do, something to help him >
17:56:34«Ąbŗąxąş» : to have the man skittering off with his tail between his legs and the centaur just shook it off, as well as the clerks sincere apologies on the man's behalf. "No worries...I'm aware I'll be an outsider here, it isn't any different to everywhere else..." The grin said he didn't really care and he turned just in time to accidentally smack into -c-
17:58:03«Ąbŗąxąş» : Emmanuel as he entered...Abe was strong and the force of his turning might well knock the man off balance but the centaur's strong arms snapped out to make sure it didn't happen. "Apologies...sometimes I forget these buildings aren't really built for my size..."-
17:58:19Sīεgfгїεδ : brush up on his skills as a warrior of the light fist. Might as well check into the barracks and see if any of the town's guards or soldiers needed a lesson or two from his experience. Lifting his right and left hands in succession, he checked that his handwraps were still bound tightly, and then retightened the crimson headband that he wore. >
17:59:49Sīεgfгїεδ : Soon he reached the barracks, surprised that none of the guards or anyone there really recognised him from what he was a part of not a week ago. On the edge of his vision, he caught sight of what appeared to be a.. centaur? He hadn't encountered one in the flesh, but he had heard of them. He lifted an arm in greetings, heading in the direction of >
18:00:04Sīεgfгїεδ : the centaur, and the male he was presumeably talking with. -f-
18:06:46Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : -Emm had just made his way into the room when the big beast of a centaur turned around and smacked into him a bit. Strong arms gripped his own and steadied him in the resulting tumble. "Sorry about that. Didn't see you there." Smirking, Emm tilted his head back to look up at the large man's face. "You must be the new Captain. Abraxas right?" >
18:07:42Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : stedying himself, Emm used one of his sleeves to wipe some of the sweat from his brow. "Emmanuel Braun. I was told to show you around and show you where your contigent would be rooming." Holding out a hand, he waited to see if the man would shake it in line with the human customs, or do one of the centaur ones. He had not seen a centaur since he >
18:08:36Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : was a young sapling, running around the woods of his home as a youth. But he wasn't about to volunteer that information. Unlike most creatures, his kind could pass for human unless other 'mythical' types sold them out. "Shall we get started?" He glanced over at the sight of a wave from his peripheral vision, raising a hand to return the greeting. >
18:08:47Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : He had never met the man waving at him, but it was only polite to return the acknowledgement. -

18:12:23«Ąbŗąxąş» : -The centaur somehow doubted you could miss him...not with the size of him but he gave an absent nod. Joke or not, acknowledgement was just polite. Once he was sure Emmanuel wasn't going to end up on his arse, Abraxas let his limbs go...Generally the centaur wore very little but for the sake of playing rider on horse back he was in his armor. -c-
18:12:58«Kâiđuş٠Thorηωyck» : not much...Emm, Abe and Sieg are at the barracks if you wanted to join in))

18:15:07«Ąbŗąxąş» : Leather was not good material to wear in this heat and he was half tempted to ditch clothes on his top half entirely now he'd arrived. A large hand took Emmanuel's and although it wasn't his custom the man was subjected to a healthy, strong shake. "Abraxas Hippolytos..though most that know me call me Abe...or Captain..." His name was a mouthful-c-

18:18:11Gaıa : Hello.)
18:19:44«Ąbŗąxąş» : by human standards so he tended to shorten it. The hand retracted and he nudged Emmanuel back outside...Abe was not a big fan of confined spaces for obvious reasons. Consider trying to ride through a building on horseback and you'd understand the sensation. "Aye you can show me around...but no free rides..." He quipped, a grin on his lips. He -c-
18:21:35«Ąbŗąxąş» : spotted Siegfried a little way off and nodded in acknowledgement of his wave though like Emmanuel he didn't know him. "Evening Sir...I was just about to have a tour, if you're interested in joining..." The man could be anyone for all he knew...royalty, the man in charge...hence the respectful title.-

18:23:50Gaıa : Just a little.)
18:25:47Sīεgfгїεδ : Sieg shrugged. "A tour would be great, but no need for formalities. I am just a travelling fighter, happening to stop by here." He gave them each a grin. "It's just a habit I suppose, to take a look at the barracks at each place I stop by." He crossed his arms, hazel hues darting to each one, gazing with eyes like a raptor, piercing and unusual. >
18:27:33Sīεgfгїεδ : After a moment of that, he chuckled lightly. "No need to worry, I am not here to cause trouble." It was more of a thing to reassure himself then the two he was talking to. "My name is Siegfried." With a short pause to let the words hang in the air, he finished "It's a pleasure to meet you both." -f-

18:34:39Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : give away on this tour if the man was a possible threat. "Well, we were just in the barracks admin building.

18:38:09«Ąbŗąxąş» : -The centaur moved into walking behind Emmanuel, chuckling at the comment. "Good to know Emmanuel..." the look on his face said he knew exactly what he was getting at...he was a centaur, not a priest after all....you'd be surprised how curious people could be about copulating with centaur...er....ahem. Wild eyes strayed to Siegfried for a moment-c-
18:40:40«Ąbŗąxąş» : and gave a nod. "Captain Abraxas...nice to meet you Siegfried...Have a look around. The army is always looking for strong, good men..." He was always thinking of the interests of the army as well...he wanted it to grow stronger. By extension that made him stronger. Anyway.

Idly, he lifted up a leg, bending it towards his back a foot or so in the air to stretch out the muscles there, having walked and stood all day without any breaks, his muscles were sore. >
18:49:08Sīεgfгїεδ : He took a moment to think, closing his eyes. "My time is usually quite cheap, but I don't charge for something you do not wish to learn. So if you want, I could demonstrate a few of the skills with one of the soldiers." He gave a lgith shrug, less as a mannerism, and more to just flex and relax his shoulder and neck muscles.

18:53:36Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : don't keep up with gossip all that much." He eyed Abraxas again, watching the way the centaur moved. "It's been many moons since I've seen one of your kind, Captain. What brought you to the human world to serve in the army?" -

19:00:22Sīεgfгїεδ : The male turned and muttered "Thanks for the direction." and moved towards the admin building, entering in there to deliver his message to the head of the office. Soon after that, Sieg left the office with a sly grin on his face and pointed to one of the stronger looking soldiers in sight, who wuickly moved over to him. After what appeared >

19:02:04Sīεgfгїεδ : to be a short conversation between the admin and the soldier, the soldier reluctantly stepped back and drew his sword, facing Sieg with an almost halfhearted look. Sieg frowned at this lack luster response, and sent up a leg, his foot colliding with the man's hand, and sending the blade flinging to the dust. "At least hold your weapon properly if >
19:03:27Sīεgfгїεδ : you intend to fight with it." Sieg shook his head and went back over to the admin, who nodded a few times and spoke some quiet words.

19:38:41«Kâiđuş٠Thorηωyck» : Welcome, please read the rules and whisper me if you have any questions!))

19:39:35∙†Sven†∙ : ty))
19:39:45Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : - Tilting his head a little as he studied the centaur, Emmanuel shrugged one shoulder and grinned. "Just don't go around humping their dog and I don't think they'll care too much. They pretty much stopped paying attention after the third or fourth unexplained fire resulting from a fistfight between my brother and I." Which really was the truth. >
19:41:12Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : Ezekiel and him and burnt more of the house than not. Thankfully they had been rather handy at fixing it as well. ANd now that his brother had moved on to another posting for a more permanent basis it left him the house with little risk of it going up in flames. "You're welcome to continue with us if you'd like Sven." He offered the man a smile >
19:41:38«Ąbŗąxąş» : Siegfried...not Sven xD))
19:41:44Sīεgfгїεδ : Smooth ))
19:41:46∙†Sven†∙ : lmao))
19:41:46«Ąbŗąxąş» : -thinks Emm's getting muddled-))
19:42:01Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : bah. i blame Sven for being all tumbling out of cup. The bastard))
19:43:03Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : before turning to head towards one of the guard houses. "There are watchtowers and guardhouses posted around every gate and entry to the courtyard, as well as every 10 or so feet along the wall. They are manned pretty much all day every day." His hands were still resting on the hilts of his twin blades as he continued to walk through the >
19:44:07Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : courtyard, nodding at various soldiers as they ran past on their way to meals or duty or the whorehouses in the shadier districts. "Oh, and that building over there is the baths for the soldiers. One heated, two not. All large and open. Or you can take the quick path through the forest on the edge of town and find one of the many streams and ponds>
19:44:14Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : if that is more to your liking." -
19:44:30∙†Sven†∙ layed in the bed still for the most part knocked out from ale the night prior half off one side of the bed as he layed on his chest with his right arm hanging on to the floor. Sven had slept alot of the day away as he had enjoyed quite a bit with a long night from his current animal pelt sales had raised him some money. The room was that of <C>
19:45:08Veriŋ¤Eurynomus has left the conversation.
19:45:25Sīεgfгїεδ : Sieg smirked, and glanced between the two. "Well unless you two want privacy, I wouldn't mind accompanying you for a bit longer. I scheduled the training to take place soon enough, but not at this moment." He chuckled, following the two around, listening to the various parts of the barracks. It had similarities to some, but had it's own >
19:46:15Jaci has joined the conversation.
19:46:20Elyse : welcome)
19:46:24Jaci : ty))
19:46:40∙†Sven†∙ Elyse's that she had gotten before. At first look one might think he was dead other then the fact that he mumbled in his sleep about animals and fighting occasionally. His hair a mess, torso uncovered, linen pants a mess, and his boots on the floor along with a few of his other things including his armor and gear. If Elyse had not been around to<C>
19:47:29Sīεgfгїεδ : certain uniqueness about. "Doesn't seem like an enemy could get in here too easily.." he mused, hazel hues shifting to take in the sights around him. From that point on, he kept his mouth shut unless he was addressed, feeling no more compulsions to speak up as he took in the information, eyes moving about to absorb other details into his >
19:48:08∙†Sven†∙ police him up he would have already probably landed in jail for disturbing everything and everyone on the occasions that he was drunk as well as when he wasnt drunk and being very protective of Elyse. He had grown fond of her and was trying his hardest to adapt to better acknowledge ways however it was a rough road so far<D>
19:48:30Sīεgfгїεδ : memory. The smirk lining his lips had soon become a look of fascination, as it often did when faced with such things like military, and standing militia. The spirit of it all kept him in awe, regardless of the number of times he had experienced it. -f-
19:51:56«Ąbŗąxąş» : -Don't hump dogs...he was relatively sure he could manage to avoid that. He didn't ask about the fires but then Abraxas came from a race that had many druids and the like who played around with elements a little too eagerly. Most likely this soldier had a touch of the mage in him. "I might have a horses body but I'm not inclined to start rutting -c
19:53:07BrandonΞArrow : Into the room Elyse burst in with a satisfied look. She had not made her own baskets yet but she had some coin. She was triumphant and had landed a temporary job in weaving baskets for one of the merchants to put his merchindise in. She was excited and her cheeks were slightly flushed. She saw Sven lying on the bed and closed the -
19:53:13Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : wrong window Brandon))
19:53:16∙†Sven†∙ : lol))
19:53:18BrandonΞArrow : you know just kill me now)
19:53:25«Kâiđuş٠Thorηωyck» : Sven...sleeping with Brandon AGAIN?!))
19:53:30Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : *sends Ray to pet him some*))
19:53:34«Kâiđuş٠Thorηωyck» : I'd be worried if I was you Elyse))
19:53:40Elyse : Into the room Elyse burst in with a satisfied look. She had not made her own baskets yet but she had some coin. She was triumphant and had landed a temporary job in weaving baskets for one of the merchants to put his merchindise in. She was excited and her cheeks were slightly flushed. She saw Sven lying on the bed and closed the -
19:53:57Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : Well...Brandon pretty well has gone through every woman in the realm. Maybe he's branching out?))
19:53:58∙†Sven†∙ : no Sven was not....Brandon is slipping him ruffies))
19:55:29«Ąbŗąxąş» : against the nearest living creature..." He offered, inclined to accept the offer...when he lived in barracks not only did it usually lack comfort for a creature like him, he tended to forget life away from the hard slog of training and the rough manners of soldiers. "The army takes the defence of this realm very seriously...and the Royal Family -c-
19:56:32Elyse : door behind her. She sauntered over to the water pitcher on the dresser, picked it up and moved to the bed where she poised it over Sven. She rethought it for just a moment but then with a smirk dumped the entire contents of tepid water upon his half naked frame, and then jumped back quickly to avoid any swinging fists-
19:57:11Elyse : that might accompany her actions. Warriors were not good when startled and so she made sure she was out of the way ....just in case.
19:57:52«Ąbŗąxąş» : even more so...You may out punch a soldier or two Siegfried but you'll find it hard to outdo a whole army..." He offered with clear pride and allegiance in his voice. It did beg the question how a centaur from a tribe in the distant mountains had come to serve humans so loyally. There was obviously a reason behind it. The sound of his hooves on -c-
19:58:13Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : a question Emm already asked *coughs some*))
19:59:58«Ąbŗąxąş» : the ground slowed as he cast his eyes upwards towards the towers. "I think I prefer to bath in streams and lakes...People always think it odd...a horse having a bath..."-
20:01:43∙†Sven†∙ lept to his feat on the bed kicking everything off of it that may have been on it in a frantic surprise as he yelled seeing Elyse..."Halls of Valhalla!...Are you mad woman!" he slicked his half wet hair back from his face and smirked at her with an evilish grin. "I shall repay this debt I owe you now, but later" he spoke as he looked at her and <C
20:02:05Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : - "We've never actually had the walls been breeched yet, Sigfried." THere was a bit of pride in his voice too, seeing as how battlemages had played key roles in the past. Something he was hoping to get to do eventually himself, lest his skills and talent go to waste. "Well for a man of your speed, Captain, it would likely be nothing at all for you>
20:03:33Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : to make it to the streams and back for a bath. Even closer from my home than the castle." Pausing near the guardhouse at the gates, Emmanuel shrugged as he looked around. "And that's pretty much the tour gentlemen. Was there anything else you wanted to see?" Reduced to playing tour guide. Not that he didn't mind something different to do, but >
20:03:43Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : surely there was better work for him to be doing right? -
20:04:03∙†Sven†∙ stepped down off the bed shaking some of the water off of himself at her. He picked up his shirt into his hand from the floor and tossed it onto the bed. Sven then took a seat at the end and picked up his boots placing the right one on first and tightening the leatherstraps and then the left. Sven looked up to her waiting to see what she would <C>
20:04:22∙†Sven†∙ say to his reaction as he knew she would have some kind of remark for him<D>
20:06:49Sīεgfгїεδ : Sieg gave the centaur a skeptical look. "I never intended to fight against an army. I live by the ways of the Light fist. I have no reason to cause needless destruction." He took a short breath, and paused. "Are you aware of the beliefs of the Light fist?" It was more of a question to see if Abraxas understood any small portion of the pride Sieg >
20:08:00Elyse : "I do not go out and spend all night drinking ales and singing songs of victory at the top of my lungs and then sleep all day so I do not think you will catch me in the same way my dear Sween" She held up her coin purse and jingled the coins in it . " I am going to be making baskets for a merchant. He has the reeds and I made two-
20:09:08Sīεgfгїεδ : held himself to have, and the honors by which he had abided. Siegfried looked around, taking in the sights. "I think I've seen more than enough to be impressed, Emmanuez. Such a strong defense is sure to be one of the greater ones I've seen for quite a while." A small chuckle escaped his lips, and he thought for a moment about going to a topic >
20:09:39Sīεgfгїεδ : not many delved into, but decided against it, lest the idea be rejected and he get kicked out of the city. That would certainly not be nice. -f-
20:11:24Elyse : samples,he loved them and so I am going to do a few more." She twirled around very pleased with herself before stopping in front of him and claiming his lips for a few seconds. "So we can stay here for a few more days or we can settle our camp and you could walk me into town everyday." she was willing to do which ever he wanted to do. -
20:12:16«Ąbŗąxąş» : -The centaur had not intended offense for although he didn't know Siegfried, he doubted that the man meant ill will to the guards or those they protected. There was a frown at the question, at the mention of his creed as it were. "I am not aware of it Siegfried but as I said...I do not know hand to hand combat as well as most...Too much punching -c
20:12:25Elyse : His odd ways were starting to grow on her, they had a excellent sex life his passion for her matching hers for him.
20:13:30Jaci is away.
20:14:35«Ąbŗąxąş» : downwards.." he outclassed most men height wise and hence favoured a pole weapon...more reach, less stooping. The tour it seemed had ended and Abraxas gave a glance in both men's direction. "If it is done then allow me to buy you both a drink...I should check up on my men and ensure none have been tossed out on their arses already...Doubt the -c-
20:15:01∙†Sven†∙ he blinked a bit as she spoke of his songs of victory and his drinking ale. Sven thought to himself that, doing such things were a very good time, but he did not comment on it. He gave a smirk at her comment and when she held the coin purse up and spoke of it he replied.."that is great, with my furs and your baskets we can do what we want" he <C>
20:16:04«Ąbŗąxąş» : innkeeper or those higher ranked than I would appreciate hearing such tales..." He wasn't exactly built for taverns and inns but providing he could fit through the door it usually wasn't an issue....providing they didn't have expensive floors. Most didn't appreciate hoof scuffs across their shined marble. It was probably the reason he wasn't -c-
20:16:28«Ąbŗąxąş» : likely to receive an invite into the palace.-
20:18:00∙†Sven†∙ chuckled and was cut off as he returned her kiss. "I think we should do the camp, it can be a good medium between us making coin and other errands" his reply came as he put his shirt on and stood up looking at her as he moved closer to her. Sven would speak again asking her..."What do we have planned for this day?" he had worked on not calling <C>
20:19:20∙†Sven†∙ her Lass anymore as he used it to refer to most women when speaking to them and Elyse was far more important then most women. Sven was also working on his wording of phrases and the like as of late as he had found himself time and time again upsetting Elyse on occasions<D>
20:22:26Elyse : "Well "WE" have nothing planned though what if I told you I wanted to undress you and have you overwhelm me with every pleasure that you could coax out of my wanting flesh...would that give you any ideas?" she winked and then moved to start packing up some of her items in the room. Stuffing them in a bag she nodded towards his armour-
20:24:45Elyse : "I thought we could go get my wagon and some supplies and then head out to find a appropriate place for camp." she put her hands on her hips "Unless of course you have plans that I know not of. You are quite informative in your sleep you know, I think all you want to do is fight, drink and indulge in bedsport." she teased for he was -
20:25:00Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : - Emmanuel chuckled at Seig for a abit before glancing up at the captain. "Sure. Sounds like a good way to cool down. And then I should probably head off to the streams for a bit of hunting and some bathing myself seeing as how I was training most of the day." He probably didn't smell none too pretty at the moment. Leading the way out of the >
20:25:36Elyse : much more then that but she knew that she would have to coax it out of him. Slowly and surely he was coming to understand a few things about women and about how she thought but the journey was far from over .
20:26:26Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : courtyard, he started to show the men the quickest way down the hill that the centaur could traverse. In case the man ever needed it in an emergency and all. "So have you been in town long Seigfried? I know that the good Captain here has only just arrived, but you seem pretty familiar with the place." Glancing at the stragner he had just met...>
20:26:42Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : well the human one that is...Emmanuel continued to size up the man while wondering what kind of battle tactics he was hired to teach. -
20:28:08∙†Sven†∙ After listening to her words at first he shook his head with his hands up for a minute..."well which one is it, are we getting the wagon ready and looking for a good camp or...am I ravaging you" and he paushed as he spoke for a moment thinking about how he would come back at her tease as he had gotten a bit use to her doing such things. Sven <C>
20:28:36Sīεgfгїεδ : Sieg nodded and spoke "Follwoign the light fist means I have vowed never to take a life of anything sentient, such as humans, centaurs, every such thing with self awareness will not die by my hand. I fight to not only better myself, but to better others as well." He took a long breath after that long statement, and grinned at the centaurs >
20:30:15∙†Sven†∙ spoke again saying...."I like all three of those things very much so. I do them all equally well" he grinned and picked up his armor and attached it to his pack as he got his gear together knowing that they would need to find a good camp area if they were to work this all out. As he was still not fond of the crowds in the city as he could not <C>
20:31:19Sīεgfгїεδ : suggestion "Drinks sound good about now." Turning to Emmanuez he spoke in a calm tone "I've been here about a week or so. Stopped by to train and observe the fighting styles of this location." Although he didn't mention it, there was an alterior motive that kept him fromk leaving days ago, though he didn't dare bring up such things. -f-
20:31:37∙†Sven†∙ trust others to not accidently or purposely harm Elyse. As he packed he would speak again..."or we can do both" as he refered to finding camp and her references of earlier, giving a slight chuckle<D>
20:33:43«Ąbŗąxąş» : -Never take another life...Abraxas could not really agree with such beliefs because as a soldier he had been forced to kill in the past. Most took no pleasure in such, him included...It was out of necessity more than anything. He desired victory...not death. "An interesting stipulation Siegfried but I fear as such you would never be able to be -c-
20:34:58Elyse : She gave him a resigned sigh "You know the latter is going to happen one way or the other so lets get something accomplished. The wagon and then the campsite. "She looked around to make sure she had everything that she had brought and moved out into the hall. "No drinking on the way out or we shall never get out of here" -
20:35:12«Ąbŗąxąş» : part of an army...Sometimes it is necessary to take life, for the preservation of life..." And give life if required. The centaur followed Emmanuel on his trip down the hill, absently flicking his intense green gaze between them...The smell, such as it was did not bother the centaur...he was a soldier after all and most men after weeks on a -c-
20:36:38«Ąbŗąxąş» : campaign trail did not exactly smell like roses...especially when you had to bunk with them in close quarters. By comparison Emmanuel smelled just fine...then again he'd been travelling a long time so perhaps his own smell could rival it. "Excellent...Though I suggest you don't decide to challenge me to a drinking game...my men have learnt -c-
20:37:02Elyse : Her bag was shouldered and she let him follow down the stairs and into the streets. She waited just outside though because he seemed slightly paranoid about letting her go into the crowds after what had happened the other day. She didnt want to make him any more parnoid or find a reason to get barbarian on her and start knocking -
20:37:37Elyse : innocent bystanders down. She did appreciate the effort however, she didnt want to see innocents get involved in his manly displays of protection.
20:37:38«Ąbŗąxąş» : that challenging a centaur to such is almost as bad as challenging us to a foot race...you're not likely to win..." He had the speed of a horse after all so without having a mount to ride there weren't many races that could outrun him.-
20:39:44Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : - "Studying knowledge of styles is a pretty worth while way to pass the time. And it's good that you've found a calling to dedicate yourself to." He smirked at the man before leading them both into the city and onto the road that housed the King's Head. It wouldn't take long for them to be at the entrance to the tavern - plenty large enough for >
20:40:29∙†Sven†∙ He stood up straight belted his dual axes to his back once again the belts crossing over his chest. After he acomplished putting his weapons on his back he slung his pack over his shoulder onto his back as well. He grinned as he caught his helm in the corner of his eye. The sight of his helm always made him feel like a warrior as it was a very<C>
20:40:52Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : Abe to fit in, although he may have to lie down once inside so as not to hit his head on the rafters. Looking around at the crowd, Emm nodded towards a table in the corner and started making his way over. "So was there anything else either of you wanted to know about the city? I'm sure I can spare you some tales or information while we have a >
20:41:15Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : drink." He gestured for one of the servers to bring over three pints of mead for them. He figured it was a safe bet considering the company he was in. -
20:43:29∙†Sven†∙ intimidating piece of equipment as most saw. He replied..."your right that will happened eventually today" he smirked and walked out into the hall following her. Sven would give her and upset style of look as she prohibited him from drinking. At this point he would follow her out tot he street of course getting his normal strange looks from his <C>
20:45:11Sīεgfгїεδ : Sieg twisted his mouth into a wry frown. "Well I suppose to each their own. It's just what I believe is right, not that it is absolutely right by all standards. But you are right, sometimes saving lives is more important, and in those situations I ensure that the aggressor cannot harm anyone for quite a while." It was a bold statement, but it >
20:45:16∙†Sven†∙ armor attached to his pack. He eyed those around them with caution and a bit of irritation however he kept by Elyse's side and rested his hands on his belt for comfort as he walked<D>
20:47:27Sīεgfгїεδ : held to what he was accustomed to. "And I do think that making myself stronger for the sake of myself and others is a worthwhile cause, I do also believe that what you do is also a form of justice." He closed his eyes, deciding to shut his mouth on his ideals, lest they think he was pushing anything onto them. "I was wondering if there were >
20:49:05Sīεgfгїεδ : any other places I could potentially find short 'jobs' that fit my talents and don't require me to kill." After asking this indirectly, he tightened his grasp around the mug of mead and brought it to his lips, drinking thirstily. "Thanks for the drinks, been needing something like this." -f-
20:51:10Elyse : She stuck close to him because he wasnt happy when she went too far ahead. "The wagon will be good for gathering materials and bringing in your pelts. "They first had to stop at the stables to get Tal. She paid the stableboys and the chestnut steed was brought out. He greeted her by nuzzling her shoulder and she introduced him to Sven."This -
20:51:29«Ąbŗąxąş» : -Ah rafters...the bane of any tall creatures existence. The doorway alone felt awkward and Abraxas' ducked low to make it through without a crack to the skull. Once inside he let Emmanuel do the ordering, ignoring the strange stares the server was giving him...He knew the look...was he allowed in here or not? It didn't say no horses on the door -c-
20:52:50«Ąbŗąxąş» : and even if it had...he wasn't exactly a horse. As the mead arrived he dipped at the waist to grab it and though he was leaning at an odd angle to keep his head from connecting with any nearby wood, he seemed comfortable enough. From a pouch at his side, from the same leather attachments as his lengthy weapon (no perverted thoughts there please),-c
20:53:00Elyse : is Tal he has been my friend through many things. My sole companion over the last months. He knows many secrets but he has sworn to secrecy so dont try to wiggle them out of him" she chuckled and took the reins as they made thir way to the waggoneer "Do your people ride steeds? I had rather pictured them just running as a horde toward-
20:54:14«Ąbŗąxąş» : Abe fished out some further coin. It was an expensive night for sure but his men had earned it...when he needed to he could be a bastard, could rail on the poor men beneath him like they were the most worthless pile of cow muck he'd ever seen but it was also important to remind them that doing good, got rewards...and to remind himself to go easy -c
20:54:54Elyse : the enemy, their axes brandished and their legs heaving and tearing up the ground screaming to shake the enemy." she was half teasing but it was partly in her thoughts as well. His people were so wild and feral though not like animals as if they took the strength and courage from the animal kingdom and their ferocity was akin to it as well.
20:55:34«Ąbŗąxąş» : sometime. He took a few deep gulps and gave a healthy sigh of relief. "Good mead, it's been awhile since I had that...not many King's Heads on the way here...and we couldn't afford the time it'd take to let the men get over their hangovers..." He chuckled and pondered Sieg's statements about his creed. "You are an honourable man, no doubt in -c-
20:56:40«Ąbŗąxąş» : that...each man has his code he must follow and you have my respect for refusing to budge from yours..." Then Emm's question caught his thoughts. "Is everything well in Hadara? I have heard little tale of unrest but you can never be sure with a city of this size..."-
20:57:04∙†Sven†∙ he stood next to her as she retrieved the horse as he had not replied to her before as she spoke about getting the horse. When the stableboy brought the horse he looked it over. He gave a bit of a chuckle as she spoke of the secrets it held for her. Sven looked curiously at her as she asked the question about his people and he answered with a <C>
20:59:04∙†Sven†∙ raised brow..."what these people would think of as nobility ride mighty warhorses. I road one for a time I remember, but the memory is very vague" He had slowly been gaining a few smaller memories back. However nothing of too great yet and he had been spitting it out when it came to mind. He spoked agian about the idea of hordes of his people and<C
21:00:01∙†Sven†∙ "however we do attack as you say when we fight....in a horde so to say.....fearsome warcries and the like" he chuckled and waited for her to lead the way again<D>
21:02:13Elyse : She turned a curious eye toward him "You were nobility? " she knew his memory had been compromised and that sometimes small things came back to him. "To think I might be claimed by some Prince of your people" it wouldnt have mattered if he were the poorest of the poor. It would not have changed her mind about him, she still would have let him claim
21:03:51Elyse : her. She was liking him more and more every day and the comfort of his presence was something that she had never known that she missed until she found him. The waggoneer was paid and she threw her bag into the back of it. Hitching Tal only took a few moments . It was not a large wagon more of a cart actually-
21:03:53Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : - Short jobs hmm? "There is often a need for men handy with carpentry and other labourous tasks in the city. Just spread your name around and I am sure you'll find some work. I am not sure there is much required in the way of fighting teachers." Shrugging, he took a drink of his own mead before glancing back to Abraxas. "Aye far as I know >

17:11:16«Ąbŗąxąş» : -The return to Thorndale and it's capital of Hadara had been a long trek. People tended to forget that as a centaur you couldn't simply hop on a horse and let the beast do the work...He didn't have that luxury. It was his hooves that had taken the long gallop back from Tonera'Mor, his shoes that had worn down. It wasn't so bad...he was built for-c-
17:14:04«Ąbŗąxąş» : long distance, the powerful body of a warhorse a handy thing to have really. Lucky for him the troop of men he'd had with him didn't have the luxury of switching horses during the journey so he was given resbite he would never ask for. The gates of Hadara were a welcome sight, the city a place most soldiers yearned to serve in...there was no -c-
17:15:54«Ąbŗąxąş» : honour in the army greater than protecting the rulers of this broad, seemingly endless land of Menouthis. The centaur drew eyes, the usual double take when people realised he was not a man on horse back...but a man that was also a horse. It wasn't anything new to him...his kind were so sparse amongst the civilised realm of humans that few people-c-
17:20:22«Ąbŗąxąş» : had ever encountered them...they kept to themselves, living within their clans so he didn't shy from the obvious attention. Let them look. "Take the men out for a drink on my coin lad...I best head to the barracks and check in with those incharge..." He tossed a young man on a horse beside him a purse of coins before turning to face the -c-
17:23:48«Ąbŗąxąş» : collection of tired and bedraggled men eyeing the King's Head as if it were Nirvana itself. "Your journey has been hard...but for most of you now you are home...rest up, take a few days of leave and meet me at the barracks once you're rested...Try not to catch anything too contagious lads..." he offered a wry grin before turning to leave the -c-
17:26:21«Ąbŗąxąş» : men to their relaxation. He knew what they'd be up to but before he could enjoy a break, he needed to report their arrival to those in power...Oh the joys of being a Captain.-

17:35:01Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : - The courtyard rang with the sound of steel on steel, men sparring with each other during their designated practicing times. Emmanuel was right in the mix, leading the training while the sun beat down on their bodies. Shirts had long since been discarded, torso's covered with sweat and some bruises. He was supposed to be on welcoming duty for the>
17:36:53Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : new captain and regiment arriving today from one of the outer provinces, but he wanted to get in a bit of swordplay first. One eye always on the gate, his hands gripped the twin blades that he had long become reknowned for weilding.

He should have just enough time to get back to the barracks now, before the >

17:44:29Sīεgfгїεδ : any idea if she will come back on? ))
17:44:48«Ąbŗąxąş» : -The centaur had a particularly horse like way of transporting his equipment...it wasn't as if he could wear a pack on his back so it was saddlebags all the way it seemed. Once inside the barracks he caught the attention of a passing hand, a lad no doubt intending to graduate to the life of a soldier when he wasn't so scrawny and lacking in-c-

17:47:59«Ąbŗąxąş» : years. "Take them to my room lad..." They weighed the poor kid down but it'd do his muscles good to cart such things around. He kept his weapons...just in case. Never knew what you might run into in your day. His hooves clipped against the ground as he ducked into the registration office to scribble onto seemingly random pieces of paperwork. He -c-
17:50:26«Ąbŗąxąş» : guessed to make sure he hadn't lost some of the Thornwyck's men on the long road across the mountains to make it back. The mousy creature who offered him the quill seemed surprised that the centaur could write anything other than 'neigh' but people did tend to be more blinkered than a work horse in such things. One guard coming off duty made -c-

17:54:17«Ąbŗąxąş» : some comment about a horse lost from the stables when he entered...whether it was a snide comment or not, Abe wasn't sure...could be he'd only caught the rear end of him when saying it...but he shot him a look anyway. "You aught ta be careful little man...or this horse might just start kicking..." The sheer size of Abraxas seemed to be enough-c-
17:55:43Sīεgfгїεδ : The fighter walked back towards the city, his trip had only been a day or so, but he had been able to get a few of the things that he had required to travel, or at least survive without having to spend so much on meals. Siegfried carefully made his way through the streets, looking for perhaps something interesting to do, something to help him >
17:56:34«Ąbŗąxąş» : to have the man skittering off with his tail between his legs and the centaur just shook it off, as well as the clerks sincere apologies on the man's behalf. "No worries...I'm aware I'll be an outsider here, it isn't any different to everywhere else..." The grin said he didn't really care and he turned just in time to accidentally smack into -c-
17:58:03«Ąbŗąxąş» : Emmanuel as he entered...Abe was strong and the force of his turning might well knock the man off balance but the centaur's strong arms snapped out to make sure it didn't happen. "Apologies...sometimes I forget these buildings aren't really built for my size..."-
17:58:19Sīεgfгїεδ : brush up on his skills as a warrior of the light fist. Might as well check into the barracks and see if any of the town's guards or soldiers needed a lesson or two from his experience. Lifting his right and left hands in succession, he checked that his handwraps were still bound tightly, and then retightened the crimson headband that he wore. >
17:59:49Sīεgfгїεδ : Soon he reached the barracks, surprised that none of the guards or anyone there really recognised him from what he was a part of not a week ago. On the edge of his vision, he caught sight of what appeared to be a.. centaur? He hadn't encountered one in the flesh, but he had heard of them. He lifted an arm in greetings, heading in the direction of >
18:00:04Sīεgfгїεδ : the centaur, and the male he was presumeably talking with. -f-
18:06:46Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : -Emm had just made his way into the room when the big beast of a centaur turned around and smacked into him a bit. Strong arms gripped his own and steadied him in the resulting tumble. "Sorry about that. Didn't see you there." Smirking, Emm tilted his head back to look up at the large man's face. "You must be the new Captain. Abraxas right?" >
18:07:42Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : stedying himself, Emm used one of his sleeves to wipe some of the sweat from his brow. "Emmanuel Braun. I was told to show you around and show you where your contigent would be rooming." Holding out a hand, he waited to see if the man would shake it in line with the human customs, or do one of the centaur ones. He had not seen a centaur since he >
18:08:36Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : was a young sapling, running around the woods of his home as a youth. But he wasn't about to volunteer that information. Unlike most creatures, his kind could pass for human unless other 'mythical' types sold them out. "Shall we get started?" He glanced over at the sight of a wave from his peripheral vision, raising a hand to return the greeting. >
18:08:47Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : He had never met the man waving at him, but it was only polite to return the acknowledgement. -

18:10:28∙†Sven†∙ : whats up whats up))
18:12:23«Ąbŗąxąş» : -The centaur somehow doubted you could miss him...not with the size of him but he gave an absent nod. Joke or not, acknowledgement was just polite. Once he was sure Emmanuel wasn't going to end up on his arse, Abraxas let his limbs go...Generally the centaur wore very little but for the sake of playing rider on horse back he was in his armor. -c-
18:12:58«Kâiđuş٠Thorηωyck» : not much...Emm, Abe and Sieg are at the barracks if you wanted to join in))
18:14:52Gaıa has joined the conversation.
18:15:07«Ąbŗąxąş» : Leather was not good material to wear in this heat and he was half tempted to ditch clothes on his top half entirely now he'd arrived. A large hand took Emmanuel's and although it wasn't his custom the man was subjected to a healthy, strong shake. "Abraxas Hippolytos..though most that know me call me Abe...or Captain..." His name was a mouthful-c-

18:18:11Gaıa : Hello.)
18:19:44«Ąbŗąxąş» : by human standards so he tended to shorten it. The hand retracted and he nudged Emmanuel back outside...Abe was not a big fan of confined spaces for obvious reasons. Consider trying to ride through a building on horseback and you'd understand the sensation. "Aye you can show me around...but no free rides..." He quipped, a grin on his lips. He -c-
18:21:35«Ąbŗąxąş» : spotted Siegfried a little way off and nodded in acknowledgement of his wave though like Emmanuel he didn't know him. "Evening Sir...I was just about to have a tour, if you're interested in joining..." The man could be anyone for all he knew...royalty, the man in charge...hence the respectful title.-
18:23:10«Ąbŗąxąş» : -changes from brown...thinks there's a little too much-))
18:23:50Gaıa : Just a little.)
18:25:47Sīεgfгїεδ : Sieg shrugged. "A tour would be great, but no need for formalities. I am just a travelling fighter, happening to stop by here." He gave them each a grin. "It's just a habit I suppose, to take a look at the barracks at each place I stop by." He crossed his arms, hazel hues darting to each one, gazing with eyes like a raptor, piercing and unusual. >
18:27:33Sīεgfгїεδ : After a moment of that, he chuckled lightly. "No need to worry, I am not here to cause trouble." It was more of a thing to reassure himself then the two he was talking to. "My name is Siegfried." With a short pause to let the words hang in the air, he finished "It's a pleasure to meet you both." -f-

18:33:31Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : - "No worries, Captain. There's only one kind of riding I enjoy doing and it's not usually on horseback." Smirking, he nodded at the man that joined them. "Emmanuel Braun. Pleasure." He nodded his head again before starting to make his way across the courtyard. "So you're not enlisted with us Seigfried?" He wasn't sure how much he should really >
18:34:39Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : give away on this tour if the man was a possible threat. "Well, we were just in the barracks admin building.

18:38:09«Ąbŗąxąş» : -The centaur moved into walking behind Emmanuel, chuckling at the comment. "Good to know Emmanuel..." the look on his face said he knew exactly what he was getting at...he was a centaur, not a priest after all....you'd be surprised how curious people could be about copulating with centaur...er....ahem. Wild eyes strayed to Siegfried for a moment-c-
18:40:40«Ąbŗąxąş» : and gave a nod. "Captain Abraxas...nice to meet you Siegfried...Have a look around. The army is always looking for strong, good men..." He was always thinking of the interests of the army as well...he wanted it to grow stronger. By extension that made him stronger. Anyway.

"Unfortunately I cannot enlist, as that would go against my personal beliefs, however I can offer at least some temporary assistance. I have much combat experience, and perhaps a thing or two could be passed down to some of the..." he paused, trying to reckon the word he was >

Idly, he lifted up a leg, bending it towards his back a foot or so in the air to stretch out the muscles there, having walked and stood all day without any breaks, his muscles were sore. >
18:49:08Sīεgfгїεδ : He took a moment to think, closing his eyes. "My time is usually quite cheap, but I don't charge for something you do not wish to learn. So if you want, I could demonstrate a few of the skills with one of the soldiers." He gave a lgith shrug, less as a mannerism, and more to just flex and relax his shoulder and neck muscles.

Unfortunately I'm not in charge of making those kinds of decisions around here, but I'm sure the admins in the building we were just in would be willing to discuss it with you." Really, Emm was just a battlemage. He wasn't of any rank in the military outside of his magical classifications. "I wouldn't>

18:53:36Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : don't keep up with gossip all that much." He eyed Abraxas again, watching the way the centaur moved. "It's been many moons since I've seen one of your kind, Captain. What brought you to the human world to serve in the army?" -

19:00:22Sīεgfгїεδ : The male turned and muttered "Thanks for the direction." and moved towards the admin building, entering in there to deliver his message to the head of the office. Soon after that, Sieg left the office with a sly grin on his face and pointed to one of the stronger looking soldiers in sight, who wuickly moved over to him. After what appeared >
19:01:08Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : i didn't mean you had to leave the tour! Come back Sig!! 8 ))
19:02:04Sīεgfгїεδ : to be a short conversation between the admin and the soldier, the soldier reluctantly stepped back and drew his sword, facing Sieg with an almost halfhearted look. Sieg frowned at this lack luster response, and sent up a leg, his foot colliding with the man's hand, and sending the blade flinging to the dust. "At least hold your weapon properly if >
19:03:27Sīεgfгїεδ : you intend to fight with it." Sieg shook his head and went back over to the admin, who nodded a few times and spoke some quiet words.

He said bluntly, looking between the centaur and >

19:09:05Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : Shrugging one shoulder, he rested his hands on the hilts of his blades strapped to his waist, his chest heaving as he took in a deep breath of the humid air.

19:42:01Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : bah. i blame Sven for being all tumbling out of cup. The bastard))
19:43:03Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : before turning to head towards one of the guard houses. "There are watchtowers and guardhouses posted around every gate and entry to the courtyard, as well as every 10 or so feet along the wall. They are manned pretty much all day every day." His hands were still resting on the hilts of his twin blades as he continued to walk through the >
19:44:07Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : courtyard, nodding at various soldiers as they ran past on their way to meals or duty or the whorehouses in the shadier districts. "Oh, and that building over there is the baths for the soldiers. One heated, two not. All large and open. Or you can take the quick path through the forest on the edge of town and find one of the many streams and ponds>
19:44:14Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : if that is more to your liking." -
19:44:30∙†Sven†∙ layed in the bed still for the most part knocked out from ale the night prior half off one side of the bed as he layed on his chest with his right arm hanging on to the floor. Sven had slept alot of the day away as he had enjoyed quite a bit with a long night from his current animal pelt sales had raised him some money. The room was that of <C>
19:45:08Veriŋ¤Eurynomus has left the conversation.
19:45:25Sīεgfгїεδ : Sieg smirked, and glanced between the two. "Well unless you two want privacy, I wouldn't mind accompanying you for a bit longer. I scheduled the training to take place soon enough, but not at this moment." He chuckled, following the two around, listening to the various parts of the barracks. It had similarities to some, but had it's own >
19:46:15Jaci has joined the conversation.
19:46:20Elyse : welcome)
19:46:24Jaci : ty))
19:46:40∙†Sven†∙ Elyse's that she had gotten before. At first look one might think he was dead other then the fact that he mumbled in his sleep about animals and fighting occasionally. His hair a mess, torso uncovered, linen pants a mess, and his boots on the floor along with a few of his other things including his armor and gear. If Elyse had not been around to<C>
19:47:29Sīεgfгїεδ : certain uniqueness about. "Doesn't seem like an enemy could get in here too easily.." he mused, hazel hues shifting to take in the sights around him. From that point on, he kept his mouth shut unless he was addressed, feeling no more compulsions to speak up as he took in the information, eyes moving about to absorb other details into his >
19:48:08∙†Sven†∙ police him up he would have already probably landed in jail for disturbing everything and everyone on the occasions that he was drunk as well as when he wasnt drunk and being very protective of Elyse. He had grown fond of her and was trying his hardest to adapt to better acknowledge ways however it was a rough road so far<D>
19:48:30Sīεgfгїεδ : memory. The smirk lining his lips had soon become a look of fascination, as it often did when faced with such things like military, and standing militia. The spirit of it all kept him in awe, regardless of the number of times he had experienced it. -f-
19:51:56«Ąbŗąxąş» : -Don't hump dogs...he was relatively sure he could manage to avoid that. He didn't ask about the fires but then Abraxas came from a race that had many druids and the like who played around with elements a little too eagerly. Most likely this soldier had a touch of the mage in him. "I might have a horses body but I'm not inclined to start rutting -c
19:53:07BrandonΞArrow : Into the room Elyse burst in with a satisfied look. She had not made her own baskets yet but she had some coin. She was triumphant and had landed a temporary job in weaving baskets for one of the merchants to put his merchindise in. She was excited and her cheeks were slightly flushed. She saw Sven lying on the bed and closed the -
19:53:13Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : wrong window Brandon))
19:53:16∙†Sven†∙ : lol))
19:53:18BrandonΞArrow : you know just kill me now)
19:53:25«Kâiđuş٠Thorηωyck» : Sven...sleeping with Brandon AGAIN?!))
19:53:30Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : *sends Ray to pet him some*))
19:53:34«Kâiđuş٠Thorηωyck» : I'd be worried if I was you Elyse))
19:53:40Elyse : Into the room Elyse burst in with a satisfied look. She had not made her own baskets yet but she had some coin. She was triumphant and had landed a temporary job in weaving baskets for one of the merchants to put his merchindise in. She was excited and her cheeks were slightly flushed. She saw Sven lying on the bed and closed the -
19:53:57Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : Well...Brandon pretty well has gone through every woman in the realm. Maybe he's branching out?))
19:53:58∙†Sven†∙ : no Sven was not....Brandon is slipping him ruffies))
19:55:29«Ąbŗąxąş» : against the nearest living creature..." He offered, inclined to accept the offer...when he lived in barracks not only did it usually lack comfort for a creature like him, he tended to forget life away from the hard slog of training and the rough manners of soldiers. "The army takes the defence of this realm very seriously...and the Royal Family -c-
19:56:32Elyse : door behind her. She sauntered over to the water pitcher on the dresser, picked it up and moved to the bed where she poised it over Sven. She rethought it for just a moment but then with a smirk dumped the entire contents of tepid water upon his half naked frame, and then jumped back quickly to avoid any swinging fists-
19:57:11Elyse : that might accompany her actions. Warriors were not good when startled and so she made sure she was out of the way ....just in case.
19:57:52«Ąbŗąxąş» : even more so...You may out punch a soldier or two Siegfried but you'll find it hard to outdo a whole army..." He offered with clear pride and allegiance in his voice. It did beg the question how a centaur from a tribe in the distant mountains had come to serve humans so loyally. There was obviously a reason behind it. The sound of his hooves on -c-
19:58:13Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : a question Emm already asked *coughs some*))
19:59:58«Ąbŗąxąş» : the ground slowed as he cast his eyes upwards towards the towers. "I think I prefer to bath in streams and lakes...People always think it odd...a horse having a bath..."-
20:01:43∙†Sven†∙ lept to his feat on the bed kicking everything off of it that may have been on it in a frantic surprise as he yelled seeing Elyse..."Halls of Valhalla!...Are you mad woman!" he slicked his half wet hair back from his face and smirked at her with an evilish grin. "I shall repay this debt I owe you now, but later" he spoke as he looked at her and <C
20:02:05Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : - "We've never actually had the walls been breeched yet, Sigfried." THere was a bit of pride in his voice too, seeing as how battlemages had played key roles in the past. Something he was hoping to get to do eventually himself, lest his skills and talent go to waste. "Well for a man of your speed, Captain, it would likely be nothing at all for you>
20:03:33Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : to make it to the streams and back for a bath. Even closer from my home than the castle." Pausing near the guardhouse at the gates, Emmanuel shrugged as he looked around. "And that's pretty much the tour gentlemen. Was there anything else you wanted to see?" Reduced to playing tour guide. Not that he didn't mind something different to do, but >
20:03:43Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : surely there was better work for him to be doing right? -
20:04:03∙†Sven†∙ stepped down off the bed shaking some of the water off of himself at her. He picked up his shirt into his hand from the floor and tossed it onto the bed. Sven then took a seat at the end and picked up his boots placing the right one on first and tightening the leatherstraps and then the left. Sven looked up to her waiting to see what she would <C>
20:04:22∙†Sven†∙ say to his reaction as he knew she would have some kind of remark for him<D>
20:06:49Sīεgfгїεδ : Sieg gave the centaur a skeptical look. "I never intended to fight against an army. I live by the ways of the Light fist. I have no reason to cause needless destruction." He took a short breath, and paused. "Are you aware of the beliefs of the Light fist?" It was more of a question to see if Abraxas understood any small portion of the pride Sieg >
20:08:00Elyse : "I do not go out and spend all night drinking ales and singing songs of victory at the top of my lungs and then sleep all day so I do not think you will catch me in the same way my dear Sween" She held up her coin purse and jingled the coins in it . " I am going to be making baskets for a merchant. He has the reeds and I made two-
20:09:08Sīεgfгїεδ : held himself to have, and the honors by which he had abided. Siegfried looked around, taking in the sights. "I think I've seen more than enough to be impressed, Emmanuez. Such a strong defense is sure to be one of the greater ones I've seen for quite a while." A small chuckle escaped his lips, and he thought for a moment about going to a topic >
20:09:39Sīεgfгїεδ : not many delved into, but decided against it, lest the idea be rejected and he get kicked out of the city. That would certainly not be nice. -f-
20:11:24Elyse : samples,he loved them and so I am going to do a few more." She twirled around very pleased with herself before stopping in front of him and claiming his lips for a few seconds. "So we can stay here for a few more days or we can settle our camp and you could walk me into town everyday." she was willing to do which ever he wanted to do. -
20:12:16«Ąbŗąxąş» : -The centaur had not intended offense for although he didn't know Siegfried, he doubted that the man meant ill will to the guards or those they protected. There was a frown at the question, at the mention of his creed as it were. "I am not aware of it Siegfried but as I said...I do not know hand to hand combat as well as most...Too much punching -c
20:12:25Elyse : His odd ways were starting to grow on her, they had a excellent sex life his passion for her matching hers for him.
20:13:30Jaci is away.
20:14:35«Ąbŗąxąş» : downwards.." he outclassed most men height wise and hence favoured a pole weapon...more reach, less stooping. The tour it seemed had ended and Abraxas gave a glance in both men's direction. "If it is done then allow me to buy you both a drink...I should check up on my men and ensure none have been tossed out on their arses already...Doubt the -c-
20:15:01∙†Sven†∙ he blinked a bit as she spoke of his songs of victory and his drinking ale. Sven thought to himself that, doing such things were a very good time, but he did not comment on it. He gave a smirk at her comment and when she held the coin purse up and spoke of it he replied.."that is great, with my furs and your baskets we can do what we want" he <C>
20:16:04«Ąbŗąxąş» : innkeeper or those higher ranked than I would appreciate hearing such tales..." He wasn't exactly built for taverns and inns but providing he could fit through the door it usually wasn't an issue....providing they didn't have expensive floors. Most didn't appreciate hoof scuffs across their shined marble. It was probably the reason he wasn't -c-
20:16:28«Ąbŗąxąş» : likely to receive an invite into the palace.-
20:18:00∙†Sven†∙ chuckled and was cut off as he returned her kiss. "I think we should do the camp, it can be a good medium between us making coin and other errands" his reply came as he put his shirt on and stood up looking at her as he moved closer to her. Sven would speak again asking her..."What do we have planned for this day?" he had worked on not calling <C>
20:19:20∙†Sven†∙ her Lass anymore as he used it to refer to most women when speaking to them and Elyse was far more important then most women. Sven was also working on his wording of phrases and the like as of late as he had found himself time and time again upsetting Elyse on occasions<D>
20:22:26Elyse : "Well "WE" have nothing planned though what if I told you I wanted to undress you and have you overwhelm me with every pleasure that you could coax out of my wanting flesh...would that give you any ideas?" she winked and then moved to start packing up some of her items in the room. Stuffing them in a bag she nodded towards his armour-
20:24:45Elyse : "I thought we could go get my wagon and some supplies and then head out to find a appropriate place for camp." she put her hands on her hips "Unless of course you have plans that I know not of. You are quite informative in your sleep you know, I think all you want to do is fight, drink and indulge in bedsport." she teased for he was -
20:25:00Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : - Emmanuel chuckled at Seig for a abit before glancing up at the captain. "Sure. Sounds like a good way to cool down. And then I should probably head off to the streams for a bit of hunting and some bathing myself seeing as how I was training most of the day." He probably didn't smell none too pretty at the moment. Leading the way out of the >
20:25:36Elyse : much more then that but she knew that she would have to coax it out of him. Slowly and surely he was coming to understand a few things about women and about how she thought but the journey was far from over .
20:26:26Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : courtyard, he started to show the men the quickest way down the hill that the centaur could traverse. In case the man ever needed it in an emergency and all. "So have you been in town long Seigfried? I know that the good Captain here has only just arrived, but you seem pretty familiar with the place." Glancing at the stragner he had just met...>
20:26:42Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : well the human one that is...Emmanuel continued to size up the man while wondering what kind of battle tactics he was hired to teach. -
20:28:08∙†Sven†∙ After listening to her words at first he shook his head with his hands up for a minute..."well which one is it, are we getting the wagon ready and looking for a good camp or...am I ravaging you" and he paushed as he spoke for a moment thinking about how he would come back at her tease as he had gotten a bit use to her doing such things. Sven <C>
20:28:36Sīεgfгїεδ : Sieg nodded and spoke "Follwoign the light fist means I have vowed never to take a life of anything sentient, such as humans, centaurs, every such thing with self awareness will not die by my hand. I fight to not only better myself, but to better others as well." He took a long breath after that long statement, and grinned at the centaurs >
20:30:15∙†Sven†∙ spoke again saying...."I like all three of those things very much so. I do them all equally well" he grinned and picked up his armor and attached it to his pack as he got his gear together knowing that they would need to find a good camp area if they were to work this all out. As he was still not fond of the crowds in the city as he could not <C>
20:31:19Sīεgfгїεδ : suggestion "Drinks sound good about now." Turning to Emmanuez he spoke in a calm tone "I've been here about a week or so. Stopped by to train and observe the fighting styles of this location." Although he didn't mention it, there was an alterior motive that kept him fromk leaving days ago, though he didn't dare bring up such things. -f-
20:31:37∙†Sven†∙ trust others to not accidently or purposely harm Elyse. As he packed he would speak again..."or we can do both" as he refered to finding camp and her references of earlier, giving a slight chuckle<D>
20:33:43«Ąbŗąxąş» : -Never take another life...Abraxas could not really agree with such beliefs because as a soldier he had been forced to kill in the past. Most took no pleasure in such, him included...It was out of necessity more than anything. He desired victory...not death. "An interesting stipulation Siegfried but I fear as such you would never be able to be -c-
20:34:58Elyse : She gave him a resigned sigh "You know the latter is going to happen one way or the other so lets get something accomplished. The wagon and then the campsite. "She looked around to make sure she had everything that she had brought and moved out into the hall. "No drinking on the way out or we shall never get out of here" -
20:35:12«Ąbŗąxąş» : part of an army...Sometimes it is necessary to take life, for the preservation of life..." And give life if required. The centaur followed Emmanuel on his trip down the hill, absently flicking his intense green gaze between them...The smell, such as it was did not bother the centaur...he was a soldier after all and most men after weeks on a -c-
20:36:38«Ąbŗąxąş» : campaign trail did not exactly smell like roses...especially when you had to bunk with them in close quarters. By comparison Emmanuel smelled just fine...then again he'd been travelling a long time so perhaps his own smell could rival it. "Excellent...Though I suggest you don't decide to challenge me to a drinking game...my men have learnt -c-
20:37:02Elyse : Her bag was shouldered and she let him follow down the stairs and into the streets. She waited just outside though because he seemed slightly paranoid about letting her go into the crowds after what had happened the other day. She didnt want to make him any more parnoid or find a reason to get barbarian on her and start knocking -
20:37:37Elyse : innocent bystanders down. She did appreciate the effort however, she didnt want to see innocents get involved in his manly displays of protection.
20:37:38«Ąbŗąxąş» : that challenging a centaur to such is almost as bad as challenging us to a foot race...you're not likely to win..." He had the speed of a horse after all so without having a mount to ride there weren't many races that could outrun him.-
20:39:44Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : - "Studying knowledge of styles is a pretty worth while way to pass the time. And it's good that you've found a calling to dedicate yourself to." He smirked at the man before leading them both into the city and onto the road that housed the King's Head. It wouldn't take long for them to be at the entrance to the tavern - plenty large enough for >
20:40:29∙†Sven†∙ He stood up straight belted his dual axes to his back once again the belts crossing over his chest. After he acomplished putting his weapons on his back he slung his pack over his shoulder onto his back as well. He grinned as he caught his helm in the corner of his eye. The sight of his helm always made him feel like a warrior as it was a very<C>
20:40:52Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : Abe to fit in, although he may have to lie down once inside so as not to hit his head on the rafters. Looking around at the crowd, Emm nodded towards a table in the corner and started making his way over. "So was there anything else either of you wanted to know about the city? I'm sure I can spare you some tales or information while we have a >
20:41:15Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : drink." He gestured for one of the servers to bring over three pints of mead for them. He figured it was a safe bet considering the company he was in. -
20:43:29∙†Sven†∙ intimidating piece of equipment as most saw. He replied..."your right that will happened eventually today" he smirked and walked out into the hall following her. Sven would give her and upset style of look as she prohibited him from drinking. At this point he would follow her out tot he street of course getting his normal strange looks from his <C>
20:45:11Sīεgfгїεδ : Sieg twisted his mouth into a wry frown. "Well I suppose to each their own. It's just what I believe is right, not that it is absolutely right by all standards. But you are right, sometimes saving lives is more important, and in those situations I ensure that the aggressor cannot harm anyone for quite a while." It was a bold statement, but it >

20:47:27Sīεgfгїεδ : held to what he was accustomed to. "And I do think that making myself stronger for the sake of myself and others is a worthwhile cause, I do also believe that what you do is also a form of justice." He closed his eyes, deciding to shut his mouth on his ideals, lest they think he was pushing anything onto them. "I was wondering if there were >
20:49:05Sīεgfгїεδ : any other places I could potentially find short 'jobs' that fit my talents and don't require me to kill." After asking this indirectly, he tightened his grasp around the mug of mead and brought it to his lips, drinking thirstily. "Thanks for the drinks, been needing something like this." -f-
20:51:10Elyse : She stuck close to him because he wasnt happy when she went too far ahead. "The wagon will be good for gathering materials and bringing in your pelts. "They first had to stop at the stables to get Tal. She paid the stableboys and the chestnut steed was brought out. He greeted her by nuzzling her shoulder and she introduced him to Sven."This -
20:51:29«Ąbŗąxąş» : -Ah rafters...the bane of any tall creatures existence. The doorway alone felt awkward and Abraxas' ducked low to make it through without a crack to the skull. Once inside he let Emmanuel do the ordering, ignoring the strange stares the server was giving him...He knew the look...was he allowed in here or not? It didn't say no horses on the door -c-
20:52:50«Ąbŗąxąş» : and even if it had...he wasn't exactly a horse. As the mead arrived he dipped at the waist to grab it and though he was leaning at an odd angle to keep his head from connecting with any nearby wood, he seemed comfortable enough. From a pouch at his side, from the same leather attachments as his lengthy weapon (no perverted thoughts there please),-c
20:53:00Elyse : is Tal he has been my friend through many things. My sole companion over the last months. He knows many secrets but he has sworn to secrecy so dont try to wiggle them out of him" she chuckled and took the reins as they made thir way to the waggoneer "Do your people ride steeds? I had rather pictured them just running as a horde toward-
20:54:14«Ąbŗąxąş» : Abe fished out some further coin. It was an expensive night for sure but his men had earned it...when he needed to he could be a bastard, could rail on the poor men beneath him like they were the most worthless pile of cow muck he'd ever seen but it was also important to remind them that doing good, got rewards...and to remind himself to go easy -c
20:54:54Elyse : the enemy, their axes brandished and their legs heaving and tearing up the ground screaming to shake the enemy." she was half teasing but it was partly in her thoughts as well. His people were so wild and feral though not like animals as if they took the strength and courage from the animal kingdom and their ferocity was akin to it as well.
20:55:34«Ąbŗąxąş» : sometime. He took a few deep gulps and gave a healthy sigh of relief. "Good mead, it's been awhile since I had that...not many King's Heads on the way here...and we couldn't afford the time it'd take to let the men get over their hangovers..." He chuckled and pondered Sieg's statements about his creed. "You are an honourable man, no doubt in -c-
20:56:40«Ąbŗąxąş» : that...each man has his code he must follow and you have my respect for refusing to budge from yours..." Then Emm's question caught his thoughts. "Is everything well in Hadara? I have heard little tale of unrest but you can never be sure with a city of this size..."-
20:57:04∙†Sven†∙ he stood next to her as she retrieved the horse as he had not replied to her before as she spoke about getting the horse. When the stableboy brought the horse he looked it over. He gave a bit of a chuckle as she spoke of the secrets it held for her. Sven looked curiously at her as she asked the question about his people and he answered with a <C>
20:59:04∙†Sven†∙ raised brow..."what these people would think of as nobility ride mighty warhorses. I road one for a time I remember, but the memory is very vague" He had slowly been gaining a few smaller memories back. However nothing of too great yet and he had been spitting it out when it came to mind. He spoked agian about the idea of hordes of his people and<C
21:00:01∙†Sven†∙ "however we do attack as you say when we fight....in a horde so to say.....fearsome warcries and the like" he chuckled and waited for her to lead the way again<D>
21:02:13Elyse : She turned a curious eye toward him "You were nobility? " she knew his memory had been compromised and that sometimes small things came back to him. "To think I might be claimed by some Prince of your people" it wouldnt have mattered if he were the poorest of the poor. It would not have changed her mind about him, she still would have let him claim
21:03:51Elyse : her. She was liking him more and more every day and the comfort of his presence was something that she had never known that she missed until she found him. The waggoneer was paid and she threw her bag into the back of it. Hitching Tal only took a few moments . It was not a large wagon more of a cart actually-
21:03:53Ɛɱɱɑɳǔɛζ : - Short jobs hmm? "There is often a need for men handy with carpentry and other labourous tasks in the city. Just spread your name around and I am sure you'll find some work. I am not sure there is much required in the way of fighting teachers." Shrugging, he took a drink of his own mead before glancing back to Abraxas. "Aye far as I know >
