@Oliver @Nallore @Morose - Lyon smiled towards the child as he nodded and got comfortable as he laced his fingers together and rested his hands in his lap. Looking up for a moment as if in thought before his smile grew and he looked back towards Ciel. "Once upon a time there was a man by the name of Rollo. He was a Viking who sought to be a great man among his people as all Vikings did back in those days. He was among the Vikings that ransacked Paris, a city rich in wealth, power, and influence. It was a time that would change his life forever. After the siege he conquered northern parts of France. The people of France became scared, afraid that with the Vikings have a strong settlement on their soil it would only be time before the country was over run with more. That there would be more sieges, more raids, more death. That everything they held dear would fade; poof!" Lyon said sitting there. "Rollo was strong, imposing. People feared him. Like me," Lyon chuckled as he patted his chest and then shook his head with a grin on his lips. "But you see not everything was as it seemed. Rollo was strong but he was stronger here than here," he added, pointing to his head first and then squeezing his arm. "Rollo became friends with a King in England, and the people of France, he converted. He never gave up and was eventually named the Duke of Rouen, with a son there to continue his line. He ruled his people fairly, kept them safe, helped to stop invasions. A simple Viking, ruthless, blood thirsty, learned that it took more than making people fear him to be worthy of ruling them," Lyon said, weaving the tale of the first ruler of Normany, the Count of Rouen.
Sana listened, rolling her eyes slightly as she listened to Lyon before looking towards Ed as he told her to do nothing if he was dying. Her brow cocking slightly as he spoke. "Vous ne voulez pas dire que," she said in disbelief as she finished up patching Ray;s leg as best she could. Finishing up she pulled Ed's hands away and handed him a damp clean rag to wash the flood from his fingers before she turned as Lyon spun his tale to Ciel as a father would any son at bed time. Shaking her head she looked over towards the door as a figure came in. He was tall, darker hair with bright eyes, wearing a worn leather coat and gloves. The man smiled over towards Sana and slipped to her side, an arm sliding around her as he hugged her. Sana beamed as she returned the hug. "Marx! Did everything go alright?" she asked and he nodded. "Seems you all got busy," Marx stated looking around at the new comers.
"Yes but we are managing until Medic get back," Sana said releasing him from the hug. "Alright, I am just checking in with Lyon since Beni isn't here. I need to go check in with supply. See you at dinner?" he asked. Lyon nodded as he kept telling the story to Ciel, acknowledging the check in. Sana smiled. "Of course," she said as she cleaned her hands off with a spare rag. Stopping the story for a moment Lyon looked over towards Sana. "Go ahead and get some food, bring me back something," he said before looking back at Ciel. "Now, where was I. Oh yes. I remember. You see, what Rollo did back then affected a country for a thousand years to come and still affects us today. Even here, right now," he said as he leaned up acting as if he was telling the boy a great secret. "You see, his decedent is still ensuring everything possible is done to keep people alive," he said grinning before he his eyes motioned over towards Sana as the new man kissed her cheek and Lead her from the room. "Cette petite colombe est la comtesse de Rouen," he said with a wink.
@FantasyChic @Rivaan - Mike smiles and gets to work on making broths while the girls get to know each other. A few minutes later, Sana and Marx coming in to search for food. "Glad you made it back," Mike says before turning his attention to the girls. "Oh, this is Sana and Marx, they are pretty much head of security and runs around here when Beni and Lyon are busy," he said. Sana and Marx smile at them. "Hello," Sana said. Mike shrugs as he watches MArx start rumaging for something to eat. "Oh, we have only been here a few weeks. We seem to stay on the move," Mike said, answering the question from earlier.
@Nallore @Caits - Everything seems to be holding for now. Miss Sally looks over towards the girls and thinks for a minute. "Well he was going to see Astrid out at the gate and then I think he was going over to Froggy to talk about some sort of medical trade. Least that is what I think I heard. Might want to try over at the infirmary, if he isn't there could always try over at the Horde Buster in the shop area or at the distillery," Miss Sally said before standing up from her spot and going over to check on the kitchen and straighten up a bit.
@Sigil @Morose @Nallore - Tatiana nods a bit. "Then I go practice, maybe see inspiration? Have good balance, know knife a little," she said before giving Jack a kiss on the cheek and going back over to the Cd player, turning on the music and taking pointe. Turning she began to dance, moving from one move to the other with ease. It took more endurance than it used to but she had made it a habit to practice each evening no matter what since everything happened. It was the only thing over the years that helped her maintain her sanity. It kept her grounded. Turning as she danced she noticed the pins in Bahzoolis hands and had an idea. Stopping she rushed back over to them. "U menya yest' mysl'," she said as she took two of the pins.
Moving back over to an open spot on the floor, she began to dance around, using the pins as extensions of her arms. "Poymayte, zhonglirovat', bros'te nazad,"
she said before releasing one in Bahzooli's direction before she turned on pointe again and then let the other one leave her fingers as it was tossed to him as well. She kept dancing and then stopped in mid move, looking at Bahzooli as her hand reached out as if waiting for him.
@Sigil @Morose - Astrid shrugged a bit and let Tryke get her bike (Anyone want a peanut?) Turning Edgar around she looked at Medic. "Alright let's go," Medic said, not wanting to argue and just get on their way. "We will introduce you when we are done," Astrid said before trotting Edgar back up to the road. Once everyone was ready, they continued on their way. Astrid falling back some and letting the Franklin people take the lead. Her eyes darting towards the woods on each side of the road to make sure no one else was back there and following them. They were about half way to Franklin and didn't need anymore delays.
