Wow, Will's advice is so helpful
helpful I posted Scarlet, I'm really into this RP now, I got the feel!
"Yes, let's leave at sundown. I'll wait for you in "The Tired Traveler" inn, it's just around the next corner, to the right, you won't miss it."
Kyron took his mug of ale and gulped it all down in one go as he stood up. He buckled Fate and Resilience back on his back, looking just how he came in.
"Just make sure those clowns over there won't send anyone to follow you." Kyron said nodding towards the infiltrated Court members.
He picked up his helmet from the table and bowed towards Atina before walking out from where he came from.
He headed right for the stables to where Loyalty was and untied her, leading her out of the stables, along the road.
"Let's go visit a friend first ok Loyalty?"
Kyron climbed on the black Charger's back and patted his shoulder to tell her that she can go. In a couple of minutes, they arrived to another tavern, "The Smoky Ale". He jumped off Loyalty and left her outside.
Inside the tavern it was very dark, with just a couple of lanterns lighting the front room, which had only barred windows.
Everyone turned to Kyron when he entered, but he didn't look that interesting, so everyone turned back t their own business.
"Well well well. Who do I see here if not the ol' dumb swan-knight! I thought you'd be dead by now! Are you still jumpin' in front of swords and arrows?"
Said a slightly fat, bearded man sitting at one of the tables. The man stood up and hugged Kyron, patting him forcefully on the back.
"Hello Merek, nice to see you're fine too, how's your family? I heard you managed to set up quite a good business empire here"
Both men sat down at the table. Merek shouted over to the tavern keeper to bring two large mugs of ale and turned back to the paladin with a smile.
"Well yes, I can't complain. I got a new toddler recently, we called 'im Terrowin. Strong boy he is! Everything has been going great, I recently got word that a caravan was attacked in the desert, there seem to be no survivors sadly. I tend to forget how dangerous the life of a merchant actually is. If you wouldn't have been there that day, I'd have surely died, or sold as a slave to the Southern Kingdoms."
The tavern keeper arrived with the mugs and put them in front of the two men.
"How about you, what brought you back to Damascus? A nice lady heh?"
"Not exactly, I am still on business here, the Haze I told you about some time back, well they even got into the guild. I need your help, I trust you more than anyone in this town. I need you to take us out of here without anyone noticing, just far enough to be reasonably safe from unwanted eyes. I can pay…"
The smile on Merek's face faded, his lips tightened and his face showed determination.
"Kyron, you hurt me. I'd never accept money from you. I owe you everything. Yes, I can help you with it. Don't you worry my old friend, Merek has got it all under control. I'll go take you myself. This tavern is probably the safest place to pick you up. I'll meet you in a couple of hours, when its dark."
Merek and Kyron stood up.
"Thank you friend, I knew I could count on you"
"You'd do the same. But I want on thing in exchange, after this is over though, we will sit down right here and you tell me what you've been doing all this time. Then you will find a wife and who knows, maybe we can go a bit around the world as well. It would do me good!"
Merek slapped his stomach and laughed very heartily which just made Kyron laugh as well.
Both men walked out of the Tavern, where they shook hands and went their own ways. Kyron climbed back up on Loyalty and leaned close to his ear.
"I really hope that old man won't get into any trouble, lets go get him the gift"
With that Loyalty set off on the streets of Damascus, while the sun was starting to hide behind the buildings.

Slypheed? whats the "o 3o" at the end of every single thing you post?
And Drake, so the hole which Davon and Skavard noticed is the Leporin sister's skyscraper base? Or is it another one close by? Because if Davon sees someone, he's going to want to talk to him. For sure. Even if the person looks like Death himself, he just doesn't care. He'll just run away if shit happens.

lol Voltus, that would actually be pretty cool! I imagine "Daddy? How did you meet mom?" "Well son, she used to be a horse and I met her when some people attacked my caravan with a rain of arrows" "Huh? O_o"
Voltus, are you going to arrive to Damascus in the next post?

"Skavard, I'm sorry to say but this feels very, very awkward and disgusting."
Davon lifted on of his arms. The motion felt surprisingly effortless. He took his bag from the floor which felt like it wasn't there when he lifted it up. Same with his feet. He took a step forward, then another. He was kind of stumbling as Skavard was adjusting his movements along with his but soon it felt like he was just a man with buffed up limbs.
"This is kinda cool actually! Ok, we should be headed somewhere that way, and fast beca- WHOA!"
His legs and arms suddenly started moving very fast, he was running at nearly 60km/h, and he was barely getting tired. He was sure though that Skavard was, specially with his wounded tentacle.
Davon, although he enjoyed the speed and feeling of strength, didn't like very much the fact that he wasn't in control of his own body. He was willing to do this to get both of them to safety, but wasn't planning in doing it again. He felt just like a sort of tool.
After just over a minute of running, he noticed a big hill with a small hole inside.
"Let's go check that place out, to the right. Seems like a good hiding spot for the night."

Xzayler, if all those posts before mine were jokes, then I apologize. This is the Internet, where intentions are often badly skewed, and from my perspective I couldn't tell that you were joking, and it seemed like you were frustrated with all the characters being so apparently OP, with a particular focus on mine, who isn't really OP at all. In addition, I had been reading a good amount of threads in other forums that were quite hateful and I really wanted to stop with a post, but restrained myself because nothing good ever comes with that. So I guess I was pretty frustrated going into it.I could counter your rebuttals but I won't, since it's clear that this was just a case of miscommunication and nothing more.And for the record, I don't have a problem with not being serious. But I also happen to enjoy being pedantic.Shall we put this behind us and just enjoy ourselves?
Well I'm pretty new here actually so I don't really know how things work. I'm GM on a thread actually but its going very smoothly with no problems.
And what are you talking about Driving? Nothing happened? ;)
I think its kinda cool but I don't think your character will like Kryon very much :P
He tends to run against danger to protect everyone, he has a strong shield though...

Voltus! Lets meet chars now! :D
You don't have to listen to me, do as you like.

Kryon took all the information in, only slightly glancing at the Court members when Atina nodded towards them. It really wasn't that surprising. The Haze were doing a good job and the Tarot were slow to react.
"Its worse than I thought. I must stay with Atina and help gather the other few that can still be trusted."
Then Atina's eye-patch fell. Kryon was surprised to see an actual eye. There was a scar, but the eye seemed to be healthy. Kryon took a mental note to ask Atina about it, however now was not the time. He ignored Atina's apology and went back to think about the situation at hand. He did it more for her, she was already scared enough. He could hear it in her voice. She wasn't the kind who wore her heart on her sleeves. If she was scared, than it's serious, very serious.
"Atina, you won't burn before I do, I promise you that. But we must leave, and soon, right now if possible. Judging from what you said the guild is not safe anymore. We'll have to meet any others outside of town.
Kryon cut a bit from the bread and casually spread a bit of peach jam on it. He took a bite and thought while chewing. He didn't like where this was going. The Haze seemed to be everywhere. They must do something immediately, the Haze is just growing stronger in time. And they are getting weaker.
Trying to keep some influence in the government was a lost cause, but the people, they might not be. Villagers, townsmen, soldiers... they could decide who and what to fight for. Maybe they should try to convince them to join their cause. Governments are worth nothing if the people don't follow them.
"It might work."
"What do you suggest on doing though? You seem to know way more about the situation than I do. I trust your judgement and I will follow it. You can count on my swords and shield!
He took another bite of the bread and jam and looked at the corrupt Court Tarots again. He could easily take all of them out in no time at all.
