[IC] The promised sorcerer bride-break the fate

@Shadow Dragon
Angel blinked. She did not understand what it was saying. She was nervous and confused. She did not know how to respond.

[Shadow Dragon]

It gently jumps onto her hand.

[Vampiretwilight]

Angel gasped in reaction.

[Shadow Dragon]

He takes her other hand, gently squeezing it. "It's ok dear. It's friendly, see?"

An old, mysterious wizard carrying several books of spells walks down an old dirt road. The sun beats down him, then he comes near an old occupied house. He walks up to it and tries to see the occupants. He can't.

He is thirsty and hungry, and cautiously knocks on the door and says, "Hello! Is there any good people in this house?"

[Shadow Dragon]

He looks up, and his staff sprouts from the darkness, falling into his hand. "I'll be right back...." He opens the door, covered in thick shadows. "And who might you be?"

[Vampiretwilight]

@Shadow Dragon@role model
Angel managed a nod.
"...if you say so."
She blinked when she heard the door. She looked in that direction.
"What was that?"
She nodded when he left to check it out.

"Oh, my dear magician, I am rich and I am humble. I have been lost in this area too long, and I need a small ration of food and water. Perhaps some company!"

He stood in front of Shadow Dragon.

"My name is Suki."

[Shadow Dragon]

He taps the end of his staff in thought. "I am Damocles Arbiter. There's a market down the road, in the east part of town. What magics do you practice, Suki?"

[role model]

"That's terrible. I'm willing to pay for my rations. I am rich!" So, he reached into his pocket and pulled a gaudy amount of $100 bills and showed them to the Damocles.

"I practice good magic, although I can be dark. What do you call yourself my fellow magician?"

Angel was waiting. Curiosity soon got the better of her though. She got up and went to find her sorcerer. She saw him at the front door but stayed quiet.

[role model]

He sensed a spirit. It made him smile since he spent time in realms where the spirits slept and played by a supervising instructor.

[Shadow Dragon]

He lets the spirit fade back to the ethereal world. "I have no title. Never needed one."

[Vampiretwilight]

@role model@Shadow Dragon
Angel watched silently. She didn't know what to think of the stranger. Sue frowned a bit.

[role model]

"What of the spirit? I sense it." He leaned on his shoulder only to be able to see nothing.

"Did you try to make it flee? Gracious! Spirits are some of the most playful entities there are... May I buy a cup of coffee or a sandwich?"

[Shadow Dragon]

"I let it go home." He shrugs. "What kind of money do you have?"

[role model]

"OK, OK. I have modern currency and I also have silver and gold. Some of my coins are enchanted. They will appear and disappear all over the house if you are in the mood to fool around." He paused. "I could use shelter that comes with friends."

[Shadow Dragon]

"That would require being friends. I don't have many of those."

[role model]

"Friends are not necessary, but they are a product that everybody benefits from."

[Shadow Dragon]

"I've somehow managed to distance myself from every friend I've ever had."
