[center][h2][color=fff79a]Aleria Lancaster[/color][/h2][/center] Smiling fondly at the rather well endowed lady, Aleria nodded her answer. She couldn’t really say much more as the woman started to walk away.[color=fff79a][i] Alright..uhh..black haired mage. Are they a boy or a girl? This woman seemed to not know.. [/i][/color] Shaking her head and pulling away from her thoughts, she looked back at her guards. They seemed unfazed and ready to follow Aleria at a moment's notice. It was her family's way of making sure she was doing as she was told no matter what. Furrowing her eyebrow she thought about what she should do with them. After a second she quickly trotted over and addressed them. [color=fff79a] “Ahem, I need you to run an errand for me. You see I left..”[/color] She started rambling a long and confusing list, making sure they wrote down all the bullshit she was spewing. They were looking at her like she was crazy but she needed them to leave and she needed them gone while she left. She would do this for her family but she wasn’t about to have them breathing down her neck through proxies the whole time. [color=fff79a] “I assure you I’ve been told the boat has been delayed long enough for you to retrieve these items. They are vital, I need them. I mean it! Now go.”[/color] She sighed, shooing them off. They scurried away, and she was now free to join the rest of the crew on the boat. Now with no distractions. Returning, Aleria made her way up the ramp, gagging just a bit over the smell. It was foul and fishy and she wasn’t used to this type of environment. She much preferred the clear air of the church with the hint of smoke and incense in the air. She closed her eyes for a brief moment, hoping to call her nerves. No matter how well trained she was she has never ventured this far off by herself. She wished she could say it was exciting but something felt rather off about it. As she boarded she managed to hear the tail end of what sounded like an introduction from a lax looking man who went by the name Kavius. [color=004b80]“Who’s next?”[/color] Aleria looked around and everyone seemed just so..reserved. Typical, of course, they all barely knew each other. She bit her lip before speaking up. [color=fff79a] “My name is Aleria Lancaster and I will be your healer and support during this mission. I’ve been sent by the church and I hope to make myself of use to you all.”[/color] She gave a small curtsy and clasped her hands behind her back. She turned towards the black haired mage, separate from the introductory conversation. [color=fff79a]“I was told you were the leader of this makeshift group? And I was to ask you for permission to integrate myself? If not the pretty lady over there said I was allowed on.”[/color] Aleria chuckled softly, pointing over to where Nitonka was. [color=fff79a]“Also it’s a pleasure to meet you, I hope we can be good acquaintances.”[/color] She said finally to the mage, giving a smile. Aleria assumed she was allowed to be here, she couldn’t see why the church sent her if she wasn’t already a part of this. Besides she needed to be here. She couldn’t glean much from the conversations amongst the elders in the church but this seemed to be a charity case. The church would look bad if they didn’t help in some way, and she guessed she was their answer at least for now. There wasn’t much information for her when she was sent off. Just talk about how she was a capable mage and she was of age to finally go and help however she could. When they sent her on her way she was informed to head to the docks, any group of adventures they rounded up to deal with this she was to join them on the Santa Lyrica. Thankfully she found them with relative ease, she just hoped they accepted her presence and didn’t question her.
