@Dark Cloud
Cool! Thank you very much! (I'll admit, I'm surprised you know me ^///^")
Starting on my sheet now.

Are we starting at first level?

This looks fun. Can I join in?
I'm leaning towards a Half-Elf Rogue if I can join. ^^"

Keratia: Tales of the Arisen One

Sylvia watched the guards as they looked around the wagon and she saw them take out certain items that escaped hers and Buddy's notice earlier. The ceremonial daggers were the most recognizable. Her eyes widened at the sight of them, and she looked to Buddy. If Sylvia had only been slightly suspicious before, she was doubly suspicious of Seraph now.

Something wasn't right here, and the cult is involved.

When the guards spoke to her and Buddy again, she took in their demeanor and attitude. It was clear that they were professionals who knew what they were doing, and what was going on. They didn't want to involve her in this...for better or for worse.

But still...questions and caution gnawed at her. She would not be surprised if an attack took place here.

She answered the guards, "Understood, Sir,"

She nodded to Buddy as though silently telling him to follow her. She'd walk some distance away, before trying to find a place where she can hide from view and watch what would happen between the guards and Seraph.

Stealth is a 12

LOL. Wouldn't say I'm that clever. But I can definitely sense a multitude of possibilities of what could be happening here. XD

Before I make my post though, I'd like to roll Insight on the guards: Are they just normal guards doing their job, or do they seem to be in on the cultist business (like do they recognize the ceremonial daggers)?

Dirty 20

Oooohhh...

Do the ceremonial daggers look like the other two daggers (Skeleton's and Erendal's Daggers)?

Keratia: Tales of the Arisen One

Sylvia read Buddy's note, and she nodded in agreement while adding, "It's quite a coincidence, isn't it. I'm hoping this is just a case of the name being a popular name for girls, like 'Andrews' is for boys. Still...let's keep our eyes peeled and our guard up. Just in case,"

Sylvia was surprised to see the men who had...fancier armor and were definitely bigger than any of the other guards she had met. She answered the men politely, "Hello, Sir. We saw the accident happen, but I'm afraid we don't have very much information. The cart went careening past us, and crashed here,"

She then nodded to the items they helped gather together, and she continued to explain, "We stopped to help the owner of the cart gather her things. They were in the cart. She said they were her research and she seemed very distressed over the accident. After we helped her, she left to go get a wagon so she can carry all of her stuff. We're waiting for her to come back, Sir,"

She might not know who these knights are, but they seemed important. Plus, so far there didn't seem to be a reason to hide anything from these guys. So she decided being honest was the best policy here.

Keratia: Tales of the Arisen One

Seraph...?

Sylvia couldn't help but think of Pylia's friend, and the grave they visited last night, after hearing that name. But this couldn't be the same Seraph...could she? Maybe, Seraph is just a very common name in Keratia, but anything is possible. After all, the group did find an item that was said to bring back the dead in the sewers...

Regardless of her thoughts, Sylvia proceeded to help Seraph gather her research. Sylvia would casually glance at the figurines and the research as she helped clean up. She was a little curious as to what she was researching.

Soon the twenty minutes are up and Seraph asked them to wait. She nodded and answered the girl, "We don't mind,"

Keratia: Tales of the Arisen One

Sylvia listened as the girl answered her question and let out her frustrations in a scream directed at the sky. She felt bad for the poor girl. It sounds like this was just an incident of just pure bad luck. She was relieved to read that nobody was hurt from Buddy's writing. The fact that the cart was broken and nothing else seemed to corroborate with the girl's story. She thanked Buddy for checking and letting her know what he found.

When the girl asked for their help, Sylvia nodded and answered, "Yeah, we'll help you out," She felt bad for the girl, and she suspected, judging from her question, that she was trying to transport her research alone. She then introduced herself, "Oh. I'm Sylvia, and this is Buddy,"

Keratia: Tales of the Arisen One

It all happened so fast. It was like watching a car crash. Sylvia couldn't really pick up on the details, let alone be able to do anything, until it was too late. The cart already crashed and flipped over, causing the books to spill out along with sand. Sylvia looked to the lanky girl as she approached. Her words caught her attention, and she asked the lanky girl, "'Your research'? What happened? Was anyone else on that cart?"

She recalled that she heard a voice call to her and Buddy as the cart was careening at them. There may have been a driver on that cart, and they could be hurt. She also noted that the girl seemed to be a scholar. She wasn't sure if the robes were the same as the ones she saw at the Maker's Temple the other day, but she wouldn't be surprised if this girl was a scholar at said temple.

She then looked to Buddy when he approached her. She nodded to Buddy and told him, "I'm okay, Bud. But we should check and make sure nobody's hurt,"

LOL! XD

It's all good. ^_^ I was pretty busy as well.
