Fantisy... Open...

[Ibsen]

*Harald suddenly awakes, when he hear four feets coming with light steps. Elvs...*

We need to get this one back. There is a group of human's out, and about. I heard one of them mention that they were serching for two girl's

*When they´ve passed Harald rose up on his knees, listening... To hear that it was quiet. He saw Jaza. THe sun shine through her clothes, revealing everything...*

Good morning Jaza... How´d you sleep?

 

[Dr_Dingledoy]

The dark, tangled growth offers excellent hiding places for those who know how to use it.

"Follow me my love, step where I step, go where I go. Several of my men have passed by here recently, they carry the elf we found yesterday. We have no cause to fear them, but I pity the fool who would attempt to stop them from the task I have given them"

Quietly into the brush, someone comes.

 

[LadyFairy]

Jaza

Jaza jumped a little at the sound of Harald's voice. He was as quiet as the elve's were. Smiling at him she replyed. I slept well thank you.... we'd better find my sister soon. So that we can get back to the village.

 

[LadyChance]

Sasya

Staying quiet and paying attention to where to place my feet.. I slip without notice as you do.. Taking care not to bend or break branches or step on dry twigs...

Your whisper of someone approaching makes my heart pound and I fear that whoever it is will hear it.. Sliding into the brush with you, ducking down so that I am not visable...

 

[Ibsen]

*Harald stands absolutely still. In an instant, he grabs his big axe, aims for a second, and then chop of a smaller three with one chop.*

Fineios, you son of a jackal! I knew you were here somewhere!

*Harald and Jaza stood opposite the elv the a human girl. By the looks in the mens faces, it was not the first time they had met.*

I demand that you release that girl, she has done nothing to offend you, you unstabil mass-murderer! Let her go, and leave, and I promise that this will be forgotten...

Keeah:

I had sent Zoe on alone with the Elf we had found. I knew that even under his burden, No one on foot would be able to catch him. It was not good that our Prince wander these woods alone. Although I knew that NO ONE could follow an elf unless they wanted to be followed, these were dangerous times and even a warrior as great as he should not be alone.

My skill was with my bow. Fineous and I had been sworn companions since we were small children. His skill with the sword and the spoken word, were unparalleled as befitted a prince, while my tracking and shooting skills better fit my role as a woodsman.

I could hear the humans clumsily clunking through the woods, thinking they would catch us. I heard the axe cut through the wood, and the human bellow.The fool. He had fallen into the trap. A dozen of my men quickly jumped out of the brush, with arrows aimed at the heart of the hunter.

"I believe it is you, who should let the female go, my good sir." I replied."You will be filled instantly with a dozen arrows if you make one false step. We mean not to kill you, if you but drop your sword."

 

[Dr_Dingledoy]

"Do as he says Harold. I believe that words better fit this occasion than weapons." Saying such, I slowly let my sword arm drop.

"Harold, I believe that we should let the woman speak. I have done naught to hurt this woman, just as I have never attacked you or your kind. I believe that mu companion Zoe, has the real culprit, the man who is trying to stir up this war between men and elves. What say you to us sitting peacefully and discussing this further?"

 

[LadyFairy]

Jaza

Seeing her sister alive, and well made Jaza's heart sore... She wanted to run to her, and let her know that she was sorry about the mess she had caused by going to the pond again, but was afraid to move, and draw more attention to herself than was nessasary.

She decided to wait and see what would happen, tho she agreed that talking would be the best way to solve this issue. The dission was Harald's to make.

 

[LadyChance]

Sasya

Stepping forward closer to Fineous and grasping his arm holding on as my life depended on it. Looking towards my sister feeling relief that she was safe and well. I wanted to run to her and give her the biggest hugs, then scold her for scarring me as much as she did. But I wasn't going to leave Fineous's side even tho I loved my sister.
"My place is with M'Lord, it is my choice and this is where I shall stay. Lord Fineous has been kind and gentle with me, not once has he shown me harm."
Looking up at Fineous as I say this, letting him know that this truely was my choice to stay with him...

 

[Ibsen]

"If you kills me, my king will not only send down his army here, he will burn every inch of this forrest untill there is a black dead wasteland. My message to my king is that important. I will not let go of my axe, but you will all drop your weapons, and let me and the girl go. Then I promise you, nothing will happen...*

 

[Dr_Dingledoy]

"Maybe you don't understand me, I know your King, and if he knew you were trying to attack me, he would see you skinned and your head put upon a post. If I wanted you dead, you would be already. Think Man. I have not harmed this woman at all, ask her."

 

[LadyFairy]

Jaza

Taking a hesitant step forward, causious of the arrow's still pointed in their direction, Jaza spoke saying.

Please lower your wepon.... i belive my sister when she says she's not been harmed. She would not lie about such a thing....i beg of you listen to what he has to say. I for one wish to avoid blood shead if possable.

Jaza was not sure he would listen to her she was not but a stranger to him. Tho he had agreed to accompany her. He owed her not... for he had done as he said, and helped her to find her sister.

 

[Ibsen]

You do not know my king. He might do as you said, but my message to him is to important for him. I will lower my axe, IF you order your men to lower their bows first. I don´t trust any person in this parts of the land... If you want me to trust you, you have to earn it, and lower your bows. I promise, on my word, that I will lower my axe after you have put down your bows. If you don´t trust me, ask the girl besides me if I can be trusted. I could have left her, or even worse, raped her and nailed her to a three, but I didn´t. And my word to her is as good as my word to you.

How shall you have it?

 

[Dr_Dingledoy]

"So be it, Men lower your bows. We will talk in peace." So saying this, I quietly sheathed my sword.

 

[Ibsen]

*Seeing that the elvs actually lowered their weapons, Harald did as well. He putted his axe back on the side of his belt, then crossing his arms on his chests, as a sign that he wouldn´t try to grab it again.*

Good. What do you want to talk about?

 

[LadyFairy]

Jaza

Perhap's twould be best if i explained what happend with the other elv. Each of us in turn explaining what occured so that we can make sence out of all of this. Jaza carfuly offered.......

 

[LittleGary]

Keeah:

My men and I slowly lowered our bows.

"The elf you mention, is a known threat to all we hold dear. He would have you believe, that he is a kindly old elf when in reality, he is a shapeshifter, intent on destroying what humans and elves he can, and turning the others to slaves, we need only take him to your King for confirmation."

 

[LadyChance]

Sasya

"I shall just stay here quiet as I can not help with the stories. Other then to say I went in search of my sister Jaza, and M'Lord Fineous found me."

Blushing just a bit with the memory of the night before.

"He has not harmed me but vowed to help me find my sister and I am bond to him as is my right."

Placing my hand lightly upon Fineous's arm showing my support. Letting my loyality show thru my eyes to all who see.

 

[LadyFairy]

Stepping forward Jaza quietly began to explain what had happend at the pond,and why she had attempted to lead them away. As well as her meeting with Harald, his offer to help her find her sister, and the events leading up to this point...

 

[LadyChance]

Sasya

Watching my sister explain, makes me very proud of her. She seemed to have grown up over night but maybe just maybe. She had been growing up without me even noticing..

 

[Dr_Dingledoy]

"What sayeth you Harold, Shall we gather up the shapeshifter, and take him to your King? I can have him brought at once."

I could see the love in the eyes of my true love, and wished not to leave her.

 

[Ibsen]

(OT: It´s HarAld, with a A, not an O. )

If you ask me, I say no. But as I still feel that it still isn´t safe for Jaza here, I stay just so long as it´s necessary. If half of what this elv has done is true, Fineois is noting in comparision. I will stay here untill my axe lies between the body and throat of the so-called shapeshifter...

 

[LadyFairy]

Jaza

I go where my sister goe's, but what of our stepmother?? Mayhap if we hurry to see this king. He may free us from her hold as well. So that we may decide to wed, or something so that she cannot harm us any more.

 

[Dr_Dingledoy]

"Keeah, I trust you have horses. We should get the shapeshifter, and then head to your King, quickly before more violence occurs. Keeah send 3 of your men to get Zoe and the shapeshifter. We have awhile, we might as well rest."

 

[LadyChance]

Sasya

Finding a tree to sit next to and await the others. I watch the goings on around me. Especially my sister with my sister, I couldn't help noticing the looks. When he thought no one was watching him, he would slip looks at her then just as quickly away. As if afraid someone would spot him looking.

Thinking this I couldn't help but look for M'Lord Fineous. He was indeed a sight to behold, always commanding.. sure of himself.. All made my heart flutter, and each time he would look at me and smile. Heat would build within me making me squirm, thinking of the loving we shared the night before.

I would follow M'Lord to the ends of the earth if need be, I just hoped he knew that. But I had this bad feeling that he was planning on leaving me behind. Tho I knew it would be for my safety. Sorrow filled my heart with the direction of my thoughts, but I didn't know what to do about it.
