Site Moderator Reader1810 Posted September 27, 2019 Site Moderator Share Posted September 27, 2019 Quote ‘Yes, girl. One by the warmth, and a jug of Dayson’s finest ale.” and Quote Stravor only grunted as he sat down. The heat from the fire is great, yet it does not reach the cold within me. Drinking yourself into oblivion isn’t going to help Stravor, nor is sitting at the same table where first you were with Keter. PS: warmth as a synonym for fireplace - I like it. 3 2 Link to comment
Site Moderator Reader1810 Posted September 27, 2019 Site Moderator Share Posted September 27, 2019 (edited) Quote Vardel smiled and kissed his wife. “I will return at mid-eve. Then enough; we shall go home together.” “I will be ready. Thank you, my love.” Mina stood on toes to kiss his cheek. “See you again soon!” The passage between these two was very sweet and was quite the respite from Stravor’s apathetic mood.

Site Moderator Reader1810 Posted September 27, 2019 Site Moderator Share Posted September 27, 2019 Quote Stravor took Mina’s hand. He gently turned it palm side up, placed the coin in it, and then pressed it closed. “Please, take it as I give it.” Not just because he gave his word, but I feel Stravor has the need to give at this time. Mina must take the coin because it will help - he hopes - Stravor, though I’m not sure how much he realizes this to be so. 2 3 Link to comment
Site Moderator Reader1810 Posted September 27, 2019 Site Moderator Share Posted September 27, 2019 (edited) Quote Stravor threw off the covers and got out of bed. “Take your things—” He picked up the boy’s clothes and shoved them into the lad’s arms. “Be gone! Get! Out!” Anger and frustration spread through Stravor. He threw the ale jug at the door, its dregs spilling onto the floor. He overturned the small table. Poor Casec, he certainly didn’t deserve that reaction and treatment from Stravor. Truthfully, though, Stravor’s reaction and outburst as he realized he was not with Keter was spot on and quite devastating, I’d say. Will Stravor come to his senses and apologize to Casec as he was so kind to the serving wench when he was thinking clearly? Time will tell...

Site Moderator Reader1810 Posted September 27, 2019 Site Moderator Share Posted September 27, 2019 Quote The Searcher wept openly now as he said, “Dead.” Never imagined we’d see Stravor weeping and so openly, too. I hope whatever brought his father to the inn will be another step toward the path that leads Stravor to seeing Hemothracene for what he really is, and for him realizing he must act to destroy Hemothracene and his harmful ways. 2 3 Link to comment

Site Moderator Reader1810 Posted September 27, 2019 Site Moderator Share Posted September 27, 2019 (edited) Quote Stravor remembered his father’s request, and found the well-wrapped sword on a shelf in the tack room. It was silent as he lifted it down. His own was oddly quiet also. Curiouser and curiouser. I can understand the Elder’s sword being quiet, but the Younger’s sword always had something to say, so what could this mean? Edited September 27, 2019 by Reader1810 4 1 Link to comment
Site Moderator Reader1810 Posted September 27, 2019 Site Moderator Share Posted September 27, 2019 Quote The Elder smiled. “How, indeed. Sit, and I will tell you. First, though, remove your Sword. Then take mine and place them both down the hall in your old room. Not side-by-side, on opposite sides, boy.” Strength in numbers, perhaps? 4 1 Link to comment

Have to say, I never thought that about the Hall or the plaza, not once. More like the spider and the fly if you ask me. 4 1 Link to comment

Site Moderator Reader1810 Posted September 27, 2019 Site Moderator Share Posted September 27, 2019 (edited) Quote The Elder pushed the Sword of Charist into his son’s heart. Stravor’s arms flailed and then grasped his father’s wrists. “Father ….” “Find your boy … help them.” Stravor’s soul was reluctant to leave, but the weapon pulled it from the body. Well..um...oh wow, did not see that coming. Stravor is taking a truly active role in bringing Hemothracene down. Teamed with his beloved, so now I’m sure they both live. I’m right, aren’t I? *fingers crossed* Edited September 27, 2019 by Reader1810 2 2 Link to comment
