Once more with feeling/Logs/Small Group/Near Denandsor/Mnemon Ai, Silveria Arc, and Solitary Talon (Re-introduction)
(22/10/09 14:19:52) Solitary Talon runs up to her brother and gives him a great big hug.
(22/10/09 14:20:35) Mnemon Ai takes a step back, not having time to reach his hilt. "Who... what?"
(22/10/09 14:21:10) Solitary Talon pouts. "You don't recognise your littlest sister?"
(22/10/09 14:21:46) Mnemon Ai blinks. Looking at the young woman in front of him. "O... Opile?"
(22/10/09 14:21:58) Silveria stands distantly away with a slight frown and arms crossed.
(22/10/09 14:22:12) Solitary Talon: "Who else would it be?"
(22/10/09 14:22:35) Mnemon Ai: "But... you're... dead?"
(22/10/09 14:22:44) Solitary Talon: "...I am?"
(22/10/09 14:23:24) Solitary Talon pinches herself. "I don't *feel* dead, older brother."
(22/10/09 14:23:32) Mnemon Ai: "Well... we assumed that after you disappeared... I barely got the message before..."
(22/10/09 14:23:44) Mnemon Ai's face turns pale. "You know mother is dead?"
(22/10/09 14:24:08) Solitary Talon gasps in shock. "What? When?!"
(22/10/09 14:24:46) Mnemon Ai: "Nexus... at least we assume so. We doubt that the deathlords would keep her alive... not that she would want to stay such either
(22/10/09 14:25:30) Solitary Talon nods, looking grim. "No, she wouldn't, would she?"
(22/10/09 14:25:47) Mnemon Ai shakes his head
(22/10/09 14:26:11) Mnemon Ai: "But still... how did you survive... and... are you the commander here?"
(22/10/09 14:26:54) Solitary Talon nods hesitantly. "Um. There's something I need to tell you. Could you come with me, please?"
(22/10/09 14:27:38) Solitary Talon leads Ai past Silveria, taking her by the hand, as she walks towards her personal tent.
(22/10/09 14:27:41) Mnemon Ai looks back at the column of heavy cavalry and Dragon-blooded commanders behind him, waving them away.
(22/10/09 14:28:30) Mnemon Ai: "Sister... what is this?"
(22/10/09 14:29:06) Solitary Talon: "All in good time, dear brother." The younger Mnemon seems rather worried about something.
(22/10/09 14:29:42) Mnemon Ai allows himself to be led, but keeps a watchful eye around himself
(22/10/09 14:31:31) Solitary Talon picks up on it. "There's nothing you need to worry about. I'm not about to have you killed or anything. You're my brother. I idolised you as a child, remember?"
(22/10/09 14:32:24) Mnemon Ai smiles. "Yes, I remember, it was hard to keep you off my knee whenever I was back... I barely had time for my own children thanks to you."
(22/10/09 14:34:24) Solitary Talon nods, smiling fondly. "If only everything could have remained that simple." She kisses Silveria on the cheek. "Oh, by the way, apparently cousin Mina didn't die in that fire ten years ago."
(22/10/09 14:35:40) Silveria still is silent though she does blush slightly from the kiss. She watches Ai closely.
(22/10/09 14:36:08) Mnemon Ai chuckles. "Who, oh, right her... Think I met her only once or so.He looks down at his sister inquisitively. "And how do you know that."
(22/10/09 14:37:15) Solitary Talon blushes a little. "Well, you could say I've gotten to know her rather intimately over the last few months."
(22/10/09 14:38:51) Mnemon Ai's face drops all the humor, turning to a stern look practiced by more than a century of commanding. "Sister... I again want to know what is going on..."
(22/10/09 14:41:14) Solitary Talon sighs. "I was afraid it would come to this." She shows her brother to a low sofa, before sitting down next to him, making sure his daiklave isn't to hand. "I think I might have become Anathema."
(22/10/09 14:41:56) Solitary Talon looks up at Ai sadly. "Please don't hate me, brother?"
(22/10/09 14:41:57) Silveria chuckles and tries to hide it as she steps aside to go pester some fruit.
(22/10/09 14:44:51) Mnemon Ai's faces show an incredible register of emotions before settling on disdain. Getting up he chuckles. "You know, it makes sense now, dig around in my memories. Look for something I want to hear, then take some obscure fact so I won't disbelieve you... you're good..."
(22/10/09 14:45:02) Mnemon Ai: "I still wonder though... why reveal it?"
(22/10/09 14:45:49) Solitary Talon: "Because I love you, brother." Solitary Talon says softly.
(22/10/09 14:46:17) Mnemon Ai: "Don't call me that. You're not my sister, she is dead."
(22/10/09 14:48:17) Silveria: "Why is it, always like that," she grumbles shoot a glare to Ai.
(22/10/09 14:48:23) Solitary Talon: "No, brother of mine. I'm not dead. Please, you have to believe me." She looks him in the eye. "I love you. I always have."
(22/10/09 14:50:52) Mnemon Ai scoffs. "You just don't learn do you? I've killed your kin thrice and I will gladly do it again for Her. He turns his eyes somewhere onto the tent. Infusing his words with essence he doesn't even care about saying the words quietly. "Achiaias, get ready for combat, relay orders to enact Manouver 3."
(22/10/09 14:52:15) Silveria: "You are a fool, and you will destroy the last vestiges of something worthy. Perhaps you are not worthy to be her brother, -Cousin-."
(22/10/09 14:52:55) Solitary Talon chuckles sadly. "Not exactly how I had hoped this reunion would go, is it, Mina?"
(22/10/09 14:53:14) Silveria: "It never is," she growls.
(22/10/09 14:54:13) Mnemon Ai looks at the two. "Oh, quit the act, you already got me here in your trap. Take me now before my army comes."
(22/10/09 14:54:32) Solitary Talon blinks. "Trap? What are you talking about?"
(22/10/09 14:55:37) Mnemon Ai: "This all, luring me in here for whatever Anathematic things you want to do with me, just as you did to Jemala.His eyes narrow. "Remember her from my memories?"
(22/10/09 14:56:59) Silveria rolls her eyes at Ai.
(22/10/09 14:57:26) Solitary Talon looks confused. "What? I don't want to do anything to you. You're my brother, Ai." She pauses. "And what am I supposed to have done to cousin Jemala?"
(22/10/09 15:00:25) Mnemon Ai: "You... don't know about Jemala?"
(22/10/09 15:00:35) Solitary Talon: "Know what?"
(22/10/09 15:02:15) Mnemon Ai mumbles to himself. "Of course, grandmother would hardly have told her... and it should have stayed secret if she wanted to.He turns back to Opile. "You might not remember, but ten years ago I was fighting an Anathema named Sole Claw."
(22/10/09 15:03:15) Solitary Talon nods, looking sad. "I remember. I was so proud of my brother, the heroic killer of Anathema."
(22/10/09 15:04:44) Mnemon Ai: "You might remember cousin Jemala returning early during the campaign, staying locked up attended by grandmother?"
(22/10/09 15:05:42) Solitary Talon frowns, thinking back. "A little. I was only six, remember?"
(22/10/09 15:06:20) Mnemon Ai ignores Solitary's comment of her age, engrossed in his memories. "Well, what happend was that during the campaign I had my officers out looking for the Anathema. One day she infilitrated Jemala's camp and... converted her. I... to protect her... I killed all witnesses and sent her back to the Isle."
(22/10/09 15:06:45) Solitary Talon: "Converted? What do you mean?"
(22/10/09 15:08:27) Mnemon Ai: "I do not know the charms of Anathema. She was... enthralled. Charmed... The Immaculates would have her... 'purified'... and killed."
(22/10/09 15:09:36) Mnemon Ai sits down, turning away. "I killed a chaplain, blaming him as a conspirator with the Anathema. Jemala was too important for the House."
(22/10/09 15:10:03) Solitary Talon moves to hug him. "I see."
(22/10/09 15:11:15) Mnemon Ai looks up at his sister, shaking his head to clear his mind. "But you... you still said you were Anathema."
(22/10/09 15:12:36) Solitary Talon: "And I don't really want to be. Five Maidens, I'd study thaumaturgy like Grandmother wanted if it meant I'd stop being Anathema."
(22/10/09 15:13:02) Mnemon Ai: "And what did you say about Mina?"
(22/10/09 15:13:55) Solitary Talon: "Ah. I should really have done introductions first. Ai, Mina." She indicates Silveria. "Mina, Ai."
(22/10/09 15:15:35) Mnemon Ai looks at Silveria, scrutinizing her face. "Yes... that odd colour, I remember it. And there are signs of your mother in your face."
(22/10/09 15:17:31) Silveria nods.
(22/10/09 15:17:49) Silveria: "Don't suppose you know who attacked and burned down my family, no?"
(22/10/09 15:20:31) Mnemon Ai shakes his head. "I never found out if the assassins were really found. Some blamed young Cathaks wanting to seed enmity between the Houses, some blamed pretty much all the other houses, some blamed slaves."
(22/10/09 15:21:07) Solitary Talon: "Didn't you say something about being found by one of the Ledaals, light of my life?"
(22/10/09 15:21:54) Silveria: "Yes," she nods. "I hardly recall their faces and names now."
(22/10/09 15:22:32) Silveria sighs and folds her hands behind her back and smiles. "I determined that they were not to blame for my situation anyway."
(22/10/09 15:22:46) Solitary Talon: "Oh?"
(22/10/09 15:23:19) Silveria nods.
(22/10/09 15:23:41) Mnemon Ai: "Hmm... a Ledaal... I worked with a couple of them... Were... still are, some of my best friends."
(22/10/09 15:24:10) Silveria: "Little reason anyway. For had they been the ones perhaps I would not have been alive rather than a mere, would be house slave."
(22/10/09 15:24:33) Solitary Talon stares. "You never mentioned that they tried to enslave you."
(22/10/09 15:24:55) Silveria shrugs "Not something I dwell on, no?"
(22/10/09 15:25:10) Mnemon Ai 's eyes narrows. "Slave?"
(22/10/09 15:25:44) Silveria: "Silly thing to consider when I managed with all my young life to escape both Ledaal and Realm."
(22/10/09 15:25:48) Mnemon Ai: "You did not inform them of who you were?"
(22/10/09 15:26:48) Silveria: "Yes, my first day was one of raw throat and sorrow. The only reason I did nothing at first was being in repayment for my life."
(22/10/09 15:27:05) Solitary Talon seems upset and somewhat angry. "How dare they?"
(22/10/09 15:27:16) Silveria: "They didn't seem concerned who I was. As long as I never left the house."
(22/10/09 15:27:49) Mnemon Ai: "If only I had known... you would have been out in no time... An ex-Magistrate by the name of Endar or an author by the name of Cordelia wasn't among your masters, I hope?"
(22/10/09 15:30:43) Silveria: "I do not recall, the name is not familiar overly much."
(22/10/09 15:31:00) Solitary Talon: "What about anyone named Aedeneys, Camralthil, or Norsinair?"
(22/10/09 15:32:14) Silveria: Silveria thinks a slender finger going to her lips. "No," she shakes her head.
(22/10/09 15:33:11) Solitary Talon seems somewhat mollified. "Well, that's marginally better. Not much, but still marginally."
(22/10/09 15:33:38) Mnemon Ai: "Good.Ai smiles, "I'd hate to blame my friends for your position..."
(22/10/09 15:34:08) Solitary Talon: "Not that I'm exactly going to be marrying Camralthil any time soon."
(22/10/09 15:34:21) Silveria shrugs and smiles warmly.
(22/10/09 15:34:35) Mnemon Ai looks up. "Ah. I forgot.Again he infuses his words with essence, this time simply mouthing them.
(22/10/09 15:35:11) Solitary Talon sighs. "Do you have to, brother of mine? We were getting on so well, too."
(22/10/09 15:35:28) Mnemon Ai turns back to Opile. "No... Besides, last I heard he was drafted to fight in the west."
(22/10/09 15:36:11) Solitary Talon: "Oh?"
(22/10/09 15:36:19) Mnemon Ai: "Yes sister, I must communicate with my officers unless you prefer four legions bearing down to this little camp of yours."
(22/10/09 15:36:41) Silveria: "It certainly would be inconvenient, no?"
(22/10/09 15:37:10) Solitary Talon looks sheepish. "Oh. Mea culpa. I assumed you were sending for people to kill me, and I don't really want to die."
(22/10/09 15:38:04) Mnemon Ai: "That order I already sent, you even heard it. I just canceled it. Although I assume Achiaias and Adamant Scion will want to talk to me after this."
(22/10/09 15:38:51) Silveria nods. "Likely, it is the way of those things, no?"
(22/10/09 15:39:15) Solitary Talon nods. "Achaias and Fallup are here with you? Is Liusa here as well?"
(22/10/09 15:40:11) Mnemon Ai: "Yes, I don't go anywhere without my legion, you know. And Liusa is here, although in the Sesus 5th, which has been put under my command. And yes, the Wyld is almost at the shores of the Isle by now. Nearly all dynasts, exalted or no, are sent to the western shores to defend it if they are of age.His face turns dark. "My children are there fighting."
(22/10/09 15:40:42) Solitary Talon looks shocked. "It is?"
(22/10/09 15:41:44) Silveria frowns.
(22/10/09 15:42:06) Mnemon Ai: "Yes, it is coming from the East as well, and the North and South. I've been fleeing from it and the deathlords for almost three months now."
(22/10/09 15:42:21) Silveria: "With the Deathlords acting, it seems hardly fair for the Raksha to impose themselves upon us, no?"
(22/10/09 15:43:28) Mnemon Ai: "Actually, they are one of the few things that are keeping the Fae at bay. I'd just prefer not getting caught in between."
(22/10/09 15:43:57) Solitary Talon nods. "This might be a bit of a personal question, brother of mine, but are you still in love with Liusa?"
(22/10/09 15:45:12) Mnemon Ai turns silent, looking down. "You are one of the few that will hear this... but yes."
(22/10/09 15:46:50) Solitary Talon hugs her brother gently. "And, um, do you still want to marry her? I'm a priestess of Venus, I'm allowed to marry the two of you. If that's what you want, of course."
(22/10/09 15:48:39) Mnemon Ai looks at his sister with wide eyes. "I... I don't know... we have barely spoken... I will have to ask her..."
(22/10/09 15:49:45) Solitary Talon smacks Ai on the shoulder gently. "She's under your command and you've barely spoken to her? Summon her right now."
(22/10/09 15:50:37) Silveria: "Do you think that prudent? They are... military style, no?"
(22/10/09 15:50:58) Mnemon Ai: "There is... some tension between me and the Sesus commander... besides the whole legion is on rear-guard duty, they won't be here until tomorrow anyway."
(22/10/09 15:51:54) Solitary Talon: "I don't care, light of my life. People in love shouldn't have to be separated by silly things like military rules."
(22/10/09 15:52:37) Silveria raises a finger.
(22/10/09 15:52:52) Solitary Talon: "Yes?"
(22/10/09 15:53:26) Mnemon Ai smiles. "I've gone around more rules than you know of, little Sister. It is not rules keeping me."
(22/10/09 15:53:32) Silveria: "The best thing to do is not add more tension. Wait until an Opportunity opens itself then strike." She chuckles. "Its at Opportunity that I usually have to do other things."
(22/10/09 15:54:01) Solitary Talon: "Then what is keeping you, brother of mine?"
(22/10/09 15:54:40) Mnemon Ai: "Politics.The word is spat out with contempt.
(22/10/09 15:54:48) Mnemon Ai: "And her Sister, or so I guess."
(22/10/09 15:55:30) Solitary Talon looks lost. "Her sister?"
(22/10/09 15:55:57) Silveria: "Sounds complicated," Silveria says with a sigh.
(22/10/09 15:56:29) Mnemon Ai: "Sikandi, you must have heard of her. Adventurer, Warstrider Pilot, Vanquisher of All Those Things I Don't Remember. She was quite a fame a couple of years ago. Anyway, we've worked together the last couple of years. She did not take well to my relationship with Liusa... and she is not a woman you want at your throat."
(22/10/09 15:58:41) Solitary Talon shrugs. "Bah. If need be, I'll just make her have a convenient accident that requires handing command over to Liusa."
(22/10/09 16:00:12) Mnemon Ai: "She is not the commanding officer. And besides, even then there are two or three in succession before Liusa. Ai smiles at his sister. "A couple of years in the House of Bells would do you good."
(22/10/09 16:00:48) Solitary Talon snickers. "I rather doubt I'd be accepted."
(22/10/09 16:01:22) Mnemon Ai: "Not now, but you got one of its top ever students who might teach you..."
(22/10/09 16:01:46) Silveria frowns just slightly before tossing back strands of hair with a flick of her slender wrist.
(22/10/09 16:02:32) Solitary Talon smiles up at Ai fondly. "I do, don't I?" The sixteen year-old glances at Silveria. "Is there something the matter, light of my life?"
(22/10/09 16:03:41) Silveria: "Nope, nothing at all." She says softly, "Just, thoughtful."
(22/10/09 16:04:33) Mnemon Ai: "Considering that... what is the matter with all the soldiers out there?"
(22/10/09 16:05:48) Solitary Talon: "You mean the ones under my command?"
(22/10/09 16:07:00) Mnemon Ai: "How... many is it?"
(22/10/09 16:07:49) Solitary Talon: "Ten thousand. Plus support troops. So about twenty thousand, all told."
(22/10/09 16:11:33) Mnemon Ai: "You're telling me that you command twice the size of my first Legion when I was five times your age and had gone through the House?"
(22/10/09 16:12:00) Solitary Talon: "...Yes?"
(22/10/09 16:13:59) Mnemon Ai: "Well, do you think I became a General through luck and the Dragons willing it?"
(22/10/09 16:14:33) Solitary Talon: "...Yes?"
(22/10/09 16:17:01) Mnemon Ai: "No. It was work and hard earned experience."
(22/10/09 16:18:08) Solitary Talon stares. "But... that's *boring*."
(22/10/09 16:19:02) Mnemon Ai: "Yes, it is boring. A lot in life is. As you will find out about commanding too."
(22/10/09 16:20:01) Solitary Talon: "But... But... I don't *wanna* do boring stuff!"
(22/10/09 16:21:17) Silveria: "Some of us make boring stuff fun, some of us find that even doing that doesn't work, yes?" She chuckles lightly leaning back.
(22/10/09 16:22:14) Mnemon Ai: "I've always been blessed by finding a number of boring stuff fun. But considering your rashness, little sister, I do not know if commanding is your forte."
(22/10/09 16:23:58) Solitary Talon sighs. "Fineee... I'll put up with it. But there had better be fun stuff to do afterwards!"
(22/10/09 16:24:38) Silveria chuckles lightly her azure blue eyes lighting with mirth.
(22/10/09 16:26:05) Mnemon Ai shakes his head. "Very well. Anyway, I and my army were headed towards the Empty City, considering I find you here, do you know anything of it?"
(22/10/09 16:26:57) Solitary Talon: "Yes, actually. We've taken it over, and are starting to turn it into a new capital city."
(22/10/09 16:27:11) Mnemon Ai: "A... capital?"
(22/10/09 16:27:41) Solitary Talon: "Well, we need somewhere to rule from, don't we?"
(22/10/09 16:27:51) Mnemon Ai: "You and Mina?"
(22/10/09 16:29:00) Solitary Talon: "And my troops, yeah." Solitary conveniently leaves out the other people who are also taking part.
(22/10/09 16:30:11) Mnemon Ai: "You two... ruling a first age city... by yourselves?"
(22/10/09 16:30:39) Silveria: "Uh well... There are more than just the two of us," she nods.
(22/10/09 16:31:05) Solitary Talon: "He wasn't meant to know that, Mina." Solitary says in a stage whisper.
(22/10/09 16:31:13) Mnemon Ai raises an eyebrow. "More?"
(22/10/09 16:31:30) Solitary Talon: "Well, we do have bondmates."
(22/10/09 16:31:48) Mnemon Ai: "Bondmates?"
(22/10/09 16:32:42) Solitary Talon: "Ah. Other Anathema, with some kind of mystical connection. I don't pretend to understand how it works."
(22/10/09 16:33:24) Mnemon Ai: "There are more Anathema here?"
(22/10/09 16:33:35) Solitary Talon: "A few."
(22/10/09 16:34:02) Mnemon Ai: "How many?"
(22/10/09 16:34:19) Solitary Talon: "Not many?"
(22/10/09 16:34:56) Silveria nods.
(22/10/09 16:35:35) Mnemon Ai: "Give me a number, sister."
(22/10/09 16:37:12) Solitary Talon: "...About 20?"
(22/10/09 16:37:54) Mnemon Ai: "20 Anathema?!"
(22/10/09 16:39:13) Solitary Talon: "...More or less?"
(22/10/09 16:42:13) Mnemon Ai sighs and buries his face in his hands. "Dragons... the world is really coming to an end isn't it?"
(22/10/09 16:42:52) Solitary Talon: "Quite possibly. But at least we can fix it!"
(22/10/09 16:44:06) Mnemon Ai: "I've been trying to fix it from people like you for almost a century, I don't know about that..."
(22/10/09 16:45:43) Solitary Talon sighs. "Think about it this way, Ai: At least Mina and I don't want to throw all Creation into the Void, or give the Yozis back control. We just want to rule it ourselves. Is that truly so bad?"
(22/10/09 16:47:10) Silveria: "I assure you, that most of us, if not all of us have one thing in common. Trying to save it from the enemies of Creation. No Yozi, no Fair Folk, no undead fiends will be ignored." She sighs, "Granted a bit more power would be nice in that."
(22/10/09 16:47:20) Mnemon Ai: "Now she's admitting to it! Dragons, what will come at me next? That the Yozi can escape their bindings?"
(22/10/09 16:48:06) Silveria: "I hope not," Silveria shivers slightly.
(22/10/09 16:48:24) Solitary Talon nods, hugging Silveria tightly.
(22/10/09 16:48:25) Mnemon Ai: "I do guess that it is better than destroying creation however... I think I will have to speak with whomever is *actually* in charge here..."
(22/10/09 16:48:34) Solitary Talon: "You are."
(22/10/09 16:49:22) Mnemon Ai: "What?"
(22/10/09 16:50:09) Solitary Talon looks surprised. "You didn't think we'd let anyone give us orders, did you? I'm not some unExalted teenager rebelling against Grandmother anymore, Ai."
(22/10/09 16:51:35) Mnemon Ai: "I can see that, but what do you mean?"
(22/10/09 16:53:13) Solitary Talon: "What do you mean, what do I mean?"
(22/10/09 16:56:35) Mnemon Ai: "Am I to understand it that you are giving command to me? Now my sister is not only Anathema, but my subordinate?"
(22/10/09 16:57:28) Solitary Talon: "Ah, no. I meant that you are speaking to the people who are in charge here. Although I'm quite willing to study under you." Solitary says.
(22/10/09 16:58:13) Mnemon Ai: "I see... Forgive me... It seems my wishful thinking got the better of me. And forgive me for not trusting you, sister, but I think I will send an envoy to the city in any way."
(22/10/09 16:59:33) Solitary Talon hugs Ai. "No forgiveness is necessary, Ai. You just get to be our trusted ally against the enemies of Creation, instead of our superior."
(22/10/09 17:00:21) Mnemon Ai: "I don't really know if I want that... on the other hand, I don't want to be your enemy either."
(22/10/09 17:03:19) Solitary Talon frowns. "Why wouldn't you want to be allied with me, brother of mine?"
(22/10/09 17:04:36) Mnemon Ai: "A 16 year old little sister Anathema turned commander. No who wouldn't want to be your trusted ally. He says with a wry smile.
(22/10/09 17:05:45) Solitary Talon raises an eyebrow. "Hey, at least if you're my trusted ally you're around to ride herd and stop me from screwing up too badly."
(22/10/09 17:06:59) Mnemon Ai: "Yes, because keeping check on my little sister was always what I wanted to do as one of the Empress's most trusted"
(22/10/09 17:08:13) Solitary Talon: "Your little sister also needs someone to give her proper training in how to command an army. Especially one made up of ten thousand highly potent Godblooded."
(22/10/09 17:11:15) Mnemon Ai falls silent
(22/10/09 17:12:55) Mnemon Ai: "Mnemon Opile,he says with a stern face. "How did you come into command of this army?"
(22/10/09 17:14:46) Solitary Talon: "I found them in a Manse in Great Forks." Solitary Talon replies. "Apparently they were to be a gift to one of my Exaltation's previous incarnations."
(22/10/09 17:15:17) Mnemon Ai: "You... found... them?"
(22/10/09 17:15:29) Solitary Talon: "...Yes?"
(22/10/09 17:16:55) Mnemon Ai: "Dragons... how will I survive this? Sister, please tell me you have something to drink."
(22/10/09 17:18:41) Solitary Talon: "Um. Yes, but the only alcoholic ones are in one of my Manses in the city. Do you want to go there now?"
(22/10/09 17:20:04) Silveria fiddles around in elsewhere and pulls out a bottle, she shakes it a bit. "Hmm hope its still good, been in there for at least a month."
(22/10/09 17:20:49) Mnemon Ai: "I... I think I'll return to my forces, my commanders are getting worried. We'll have to do it tomorrow."
(22/10/09 17:20:53) Solitary Talon raises an eyebrow at Silveria. "Why were you hiding a bottle of alcohol in Elsewhere, light of my life?"
(22/10/09 17:21:28) Silveria: "Never know when we might not be where a bottle is." She pops the cap and sniff at it.
(22/10/09 17:22:13) Mnemon Ai: "Mina, could I get some? I don't care if it is good or not, as long as it is better than the stuff Kojat Shark makes..."
(22/10/09 17:22:32) Solitary Talon: "I take it he's one of the rotgut makers?"
(22/10/09 17:23:28) Silveria smiles sweetly and innocently as she hands it over.
(22/10/09 17:23:29) Mnemon Ai: "My bodyguard mainly, but he has a side business brewing some stuff from the South West that is appreciated by the soldiers."
(22/10/09 17:23:39) Silveria: "Here you may have it. I'll pick up more inside."
(22/10/09 17:24:11) Solitary Talon: "Ah, I see. Would you like me to send a runner to let your subordinates know where you are?
(22/10/09 17:24:50) Mnemon Ai takes a swipe. His face exploding at the sudden taste of alcohol. "Better than Kojat's stuff for sure."
(22/10/09 17:25:18) Mnemon Ai: "No need, I told them just now, just let them through."
(22/10/09 17:26:23) Solitary Talon: "Very well." Solitary Talon leaves the tent briefly. Those still inside can hear her issuing orders to one of the guards, who then runs off.
(22/10/09 17:26:47) Solitary Talon returns. "They should be arriving shortly."
(22/10/09 17:26:49) Silveria: "I'm sure someone will be pleased to hear you liked it. Regretfully I don't remember exactly where I did get the bottle."
(22/10/09 17:28:26) Mnemon Ai leans back. "I don't care about the bottle, wouldn't want to taste it again, even if She ordered me to.He sighs and take another swipe. "Y'know, sister, I think I will call on Liusa tonight."
(22/10/09 17:34:01) Mnemon Ai gets up, not quite as steady as he always is. "Very well, I assume I will see you in the morning, sister, unless you decide to grace my camp with your presence, which I recommend against, Fallup and Achiaias will be hard to calm." Outside the sound of horses approach. "I bid you two farewell, my Anathematic relatives."
