Lol I always pictured her as on on a different building.
Lol no worries. Her personality amuses me. When Sil (Chres's familiar) comes back, she'll have lots of fun with Millie. I already have a few jokes stored away in the back of my pocket that will play off nicely with Millie's Turkey comments.

Anyway, I've got work off Monday because of the holiday. So I'll probably do my main post then. @HokumPocus That should give Pocus some time to get something up. I might do a small one where Chres makes a bridge and stairs for our two new friends.
I'll be typing up a plot point for tomorrow.
Lol, understood. Oh wellz. It's done. The newer speech is cleaner anyway.
Yup I think I'm satisfied with the modified pep talk. It's a lot less rough around the edges. Note to self don't write pep talks when tired. :D
There we go! All fixed. Let me know if that sounds better. @13Org

I did leave the kid part in there however. Karina will just have to get over it :P. She is 14 years younger than Chres and fresh out of her teens after all.
Well shit. That was definitely not the take away. To be fair I wrote that at like 1:30 AM. So I was like really really tired. It sounded good at the time. Sooooo... My bad I guess? lol

Anyway he specifically left out words like save and protect so as to not convey the idea that he was saving them all. The take away was supposed to be that each of them was an asset in completing this mission. Killing himself would have only hurt the group's mission. not that.

I'll do a quick rewrite so it gets the point across better.
Chres post up and a short plot point. I rushed through the plot point since it's late, so it's a little sloppy.

The moment Chres let slip Karina's name, all hell broke loose. Hark pulled a dagger on Karina and although it was only for a moment, the damage was already done. Nobody likes having a blade pointed at one's throat. Chres suspected that was especially true for a certain daughter of a military genius. Sure enough, her response was harsh and swift.

The moment Hark lowered his guard, Karina turned her weapon on him. She then made known her displeasure. She no longer trusted Hark, which was fair. He did just pull a knife on her.

Chres felt his blood go cold. This was not good. Out of all the people in the group, Chres had seen her as the best fit to lead them on this mission. He said and did whatever it took to push that weight onto her shoulders. Now, that wasn't looking like a feasible option. A leader can't lead if the people she is leading don't trust her.

"You kids..." Chres said sighing when Karina finished her speech. His heart felt heavy knowing the burden he would need to take on. "Now is not the time be starting fights."

Chres closed his eyes and took a deep breath to calm his nerves. He opened his eyes a second later and turned his gaze to Karina. "To be fair, Karina, your country is currently invading Hark's country." Chres began in calm and collected voice. "So, Hark's anger towards your people may be justified. Pulling a dagger on you, however,-" Chres turned his gaze in Hark's direction. "-was most certainly not. Especially considering Katrina here is one of the few sane people in this town right now. Karina makes some very valid points, Hark. There is a new invading force in this country right now. One that apparently can turn your friends and neighbors to their side. And they may not only be in just this country. For all we know, Karina,-" Chres continued looking back in Karina's direction. "-they could have sleeper agents in the Nation of Touch as well."

Chres paused for a moment to let that thought sink in. After the brief pause he then continued. "Regardless of all that, here's how I see things right now. Everyone of us here is an asset right now. We all bring different skills to the table. If we can not put our petty differences aside, then we will not make it out of here alive.

"When I went back into that burning building, I nearly stayed there and let the flames devour me. It would have been so easy to let it all end right then and there. Yet, I didn't let that happen. It tore my heart apart to walk away from the warmth of those flames, but I did so anyway. Why, am I mentioning this? Because just like the rest of you, I have something to bring the table. Such as, an convenient way to get you all off of this roof.

"Now perhaps you all can get of this roof without me. In fact I'm sure you all could get off this roof without me. Problem is, if I let myself die in there, this group would have been left with one less convenience at hand. And looking at the mess that is this town, we are going to need every bit of convenience we can get to escape. Any lost of convenience endangers the group as a whole. I had no problem with of ending my own life back there... but I couldn't come to grips with endangering the rest of your lives simply because I have personal issues.

"Point is, we each need each other here. We can't be fighting with ourselves right now. If I'm not allowed to kill myself right now, then you two aren't allowed to kill each other. Instead I would prefer if we focus our efforts on killing the crazies down there.

"Now enough chit chat. No more arguing. We need to move forward, and take care of whoever that woman is over there. Speaking of which, Karina, if you can launch any of your ice magic at that woman, it would be very much appreciated. I want you to stay in the back of the group and protect our rear. Hark, you on the other hand will protect our front, particularly the Innkeeper and his family. We'll also need you to direct us to that safe house of yours.. Octavio, if you know of a way to fix a malfunctioning familiar I'd very much like to hear it. And Almos... I'm not sure what you do, but whatever it is, do that and keep an eye out for trouble. DB, you do the same."


Chres didn't wait for a response. He turned away and expected them to obey. Wincing at the pain in his foot, Chres limped over to the next gap, placed his foot down at the edge and wove another bridge beneath his foot.




Plot Point


Mention of @eclecticwitch, @Fetzen



Sightless Syella, basked in comforting embrace of her Lord's Insight, gazing on the chase unfolding presently. She saw Clan members running after nothing... Pointing at nothing... shouting over nothing. What were they chasing? What did they see?

Syella, gazed at the vision intently, confused at the situation unfolding before her. It was only then that she noticed the blank spot in the vision. It was moving a constant pace, always just out of reach from her clan members. She could barely focus on the blank spot in her vision, which meant only one thing.

"Those fools!" Sightless Syella said out-loud. "They are chasing after an illusion. A damnable light construct!"

Sightless Syella, changed her vision of Insight back to the burning inn and began rummaging over things she missed. It was then that she noticed a dark skinned woman being helped by giant onto the rooftop. She did not recognize them as clan members. And if they won't running around mad, then she figured they must be the pact makers, or at least some of them.

Syella called out to her Clan Member, De'laire, and ordered her to send the remaining Clan members after the giant and his maiden friend. De'laire complied and sent seven clan members after them. Four men, and three woman.

Now, Syella needed to find the rest of the group. The disturbance she felt the night prior was too large to be for two people. After a quick search using the Insight, she found the a larger group, running across the roof tops. Syella cursed. So that was why the others were getting up on the roof. She could send her clan members after them, but it might prove difficult to get up onto that roof before the pact makers got away.

So be it! Syella decided. I'll chase after them myself!


No problem man, don't worry about it. Whew, That sounds really rough though.
