Current Sorry for my lack of posts lately. I've just... been struggling to get the energy to write something up. I'm trying some new meds through so hopefully that will change soon.

Magus slowly turned to face the fairy that had shoved his 'head' a little, the creaking of wood that announced any movement of his ringing out in the air. Seemingly standing a little taller than before the rather tall black robed, hooded man who's only identifiable feature that escaped the shadows of his hood was a pair of glowing blue orbs that must have been his eyes simply looked at Lethe with a slightly deadpan 'Are you serious?' expression. "I am aware that you are on a tight seclude and are quite stressed out at the moment Ms Lethe and for that reason I am polite declining your request to go and find the people you are looking for. Before you freak out at me, think about it carefully; If a complete and utter stranger that towered over you who was complete hidden under a robe that bathed everything but his glowing eyes in shadow came up to you and asked in a unearthly tone of voice to come with him to the nearby graveyard, how would you react? It would just make convincing them that coming to the graveyard is a good idea much harder and more complicated than it needs to be."

"I apologies that finding and tracking people in a large crowd runs counter to my abilities. Perhaps there is something else I can do to help you Lethe?" Magus offered the fairy, being surprisingly polite despite her attitude. Glancing towards the preteen ninja girl in their midst, Magus quickly added "Lethe is right, it should be pretty easy to find her. Even more so since she runs a potion stall and appears to be somewhat well known by the towns people. You shouldn't have to much trouble finding her."
Alright Dawnscroll. I can hold off my post until you've made yours.
I wouldn't mind having a deck of cards like that...

Considering it is a custom job, $5 doesn't seem all that much.
Torrential smiled in amusement at a number of the stories that Star Dancer shared with him that had spread since his visit to Appleloosa. Some of them were new to his ears, such as the story of the priest. The alicorn made a bet that the priest in question would go quite far given some time to work his way up in the world; Zealotry was all well and good at the street level of organized religion but once you started to get to the high tiers you needed to be a bit more practical, have organizational skills and process the ability to take credit when things go right and blame others when things go wrong.

The mention of the more... scandalous rumors between himself and the Supreme Commander's little sister Applebloom brought a chuckle out of Torrential with ease. "My dear, I've heard several versions of that story; Some of them so deviant and perverted in nature that my sister Thea would not only congratulate me for my efforts but request the chance to exchange notes so that she could try some new ideas out. Trust me, if the versions you've heard so far don't include latex, twin ankle bars, a riding crop, a ring gag and a basket full of pears its one of the more tame ones."

Taking the time to admire and openly laugh at the expression that would no doubt soon arise from Star Dancers face as she tried to picture exactly how all the items he had mentioned would fit into such a situation, he waited until she had the chance to recover somewhat before answering her question. "First off, just between you and me, I've never met Ms Applebloom let alone have a sexual relationship with her. Any story that says otherwise is just the perverted imagination of ponies running wild."

"As for what I spoke with Ms Applejack about... that my dear is between myself and Ms Applejack and will most likely stay that way until the day she dies." Torrential informed, a wicked looking grin appearing on his face a moment afterwards. "I can however confirm that I entered Appleloosa by the official channels and made an official appointment with Ms Applejack which I politely waited for and kept. I fully believe that the fact that I took such an approach caused Applejack's curiosity to overrule her hatred of horned kind to see what I wanted to talk to her about. I can also tell you the real reason that she was so mad at the end of the meeting..."

Making a show of glancing around before leaning in to whisper what the look on his face betrayed to be the punchline of a funny joke, Torrential simply told Star Dancer "I gave her my blessing."
The silence that descended on the two travelers was a comfortable one; A welcome one.

With his wing draped over the smaller figure by his side like a father walking beside his daughter, Torrential smiled warmly as he contemplated his existence and the road that had led him to where he currently walked with Star Dancer by his side. Were there things that he regretted? Of course there were. Blessed was the mind that was too small for doubt after all and when one is an immortal you quickly discover that you have a very long time to witness the consequences of your actions play out. If he was given the chance to change anything or do anything differently, would he? After some thought Torrential had to concede that while he would have liked the chance to have a bit less blood on his hooves for the most part he was content with how things had worked out for him.

After a while of walking in silence, Torrential chuckled a little to himself as he asked aloud "You've been traveling in Earthborn owned territories for a while now Lady Star Dancer. Have you heard many of the stories about what went down in Appleloosa yet?"
I'm alright with starting a new thread to clear up any confusion.

Might be a good idea to send links to people just to make sure everyone knows where its taking place.
Just to make sure, Manus is still on the waiting list until more female characters pop up, yes?
A rather short post I will admit, but I believe it covers what I wanted to get across.
Torrential didn't answer right away. Altering his steps a little so that as he walked he closed in on Star Dancers side, he would offer the young mortal a warm, fatherly grin as his cloak shifted enough for him to bring out one of his wings to drape over the scholar. "I would be more than honored to have you walk by my side until we near Moon and Stars boarder Lady Star Dancer. The only reason I would send you back to Silver at that point is purely for your own safety. The last time I was anywhere near one of Celestia's students resulted in a number of dead unicorns, a fair bit of collateral damage and a very pissed off Celestia. Considering what I've seen and heard of her current student... Well, it would be pretty safe to say that its going to top it. I'll even tell you what happened when I swing by to visit Silver if you want."
And Magus does the smart thing and sends ninja's to retrieve his target.
