Alyssa mounted her camel,  and immediately named it George,  it looked like a George so that should suit it fine.  [color=ed1c24]"I'm more concerned about any treasure of value being a two day ride away from a city.  There's a reason no one's retrieved it yet.  Way I see it either the mages are being forthcoming and it's a simple matter of timing or, and in my opinion far mor likely, whatever is guarding it is formidable indeed."[/color]

Alyssa offered a hand to help Vivian up.  Once she was situated she spoke quietly.  [color=ed1c24]"About earlier,  I over reacted a bit.  Sometimes people call people like me 'the rogue' because it's easier that way.  If we die we're just the rogue right?  No name,  no attachments.   I get it,  but I don't have any family,  no one will miss me."[/color]  She chuckled a bit.  [color=ed1c24]"Well maybe a few tavern maidens, but they don't really count.  I just don't want to die without someone, anyone, knowing I was here."[/color]

After a moment she looked over her shoulder all smiles again.  [color=ed1c24]"And it's good to have a proper mage around.  I have some magical talent,  but I'd be hard-pressed to provide everything we'll likely need."[/color]
