In Search Of

With a couple weeks of rest behind him, and the smell of spirits clinging to his cloths, Kirell reenters the hall in search of Artemis once again. "I feel the need for further training", Kirell booms. "Has anyone seen Artemis or Corvax I am once again in need of expert training".

Friends come and go.

But enemys gather at my feet in a heap!

"I love this town, say a healers name and one appears. When last we met you were in the company of an outstanding fighter, I beleive his name was Kevass, any chance you could direct me to him."

As Corvax walks by the warriors hall he hears someone call out his name," Crap " he says softly. " Who is in need of healing now?" he calls from the road. Standing in the middle of the road looking down at his clothes Corvax starts brushing pine needles and flower pedals off of his person.

Looking up from his disheveled garb Corvax says "I'm sure that if he is not inside the warriors hall then he should be in the mess hall." Giving a small chuckle and amusing himself at his clever little rhyme Corvax says "With the muscles he has he should either be lifting, sparring or eating." "Come with me and we shall find him together." Thinking for a moment Corvax says " I think he wants to talk to you anyway." Corvax turn to go to the tavern.

Kirell follows Corvax from the Warriors Hall. As they step into the heavy night air he looks around as if remembering something, and muses, "A feeling of unease has been lingering in town as of late. Do you feel it Corvax? It's been quiet, too quiet." Looking to the stars he whispers under his breath ?I?ll need more training if I am to defend this town from the likes of the Demon?s?

Kevass see's Corvax and Kirell step out from the warrior's hall door. "Ho Corvax and Kirell. I over heard your conversation from the porch. I am more that willing to help you Kirell with your training. In return I would like to offer you and yours a proposition. Come to my cabin and we can discuss it in more private detail." (OUT OF PLAY: Ashley, I will try to contact you by e-mail through the Shards website to discuss this.)

"Another job well done you wanted Kevass and you now have him." Corvax says. "well I'm off to the pub I trust you two will be fine without me." Corvax starts walking off to the tavern.

As Kirell follows Kevass he shares his sence of unease. "Can you feel it Kevas? The air is thick with the anticipation of impending battle. We need to prepare. I could use your help."

The wind picks up as the warriors converse on the steps of the warrior's hall. Trees sway as thunder rolls through the shard. The thunder seems to be getting closer as shouts can be heard above it.

For every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness.
-- Ralph Waldo Emerson

With a grim look of concern on his face Kevass inquires, "Kirell I fear your since of urgency and doom may not be misplaced. What do you make of such screams and thunder from the sky? It seems rather unnatural, and what is this mention of fighting Demons?"

As Kirell breaks into a sprint heading for the Tavern, "Just a memory of the Shady Corner, I think we should see if history is repeating itself."

Aye what is it Kirell?
