Title: For Better or for Much Worse
Description: Open


Zakiyyah - January 28, 2008 03:05 AM (GMT)
The one she was bound with disliked Zakiyyah's passion. Zakiyyah tried her best not to think about it, the bond between the two was far too master-slave for her to do a thing if she thought about it. Then again, Leila might have simply come to suppress her demonic companion, considering her mind was best left described as interesting. She followed along after yet another paladin, one who she assumed would have quite a bit to discuss. There were nonsensical and even ridiculous rumors surrounding the man, and it had peeked her interest. In her weakened state, she couldn't hunt a real paladin until she gained a hold of all her magic again.

The traders took long glances at the woman, unwitting to the fact she was a rauko. It wasn't obvious, considering the fact she looked positively angelic, other than the sharp, feral eyes. The orbs fell fixedly upon the men, finding the soldiers amongst them. Some were obvious, carrying swords and wearing heavy armor. Others were less so, chainmail shirts hidden beneath jackets, and swords dangling at their belts as though toys. The ones on the merchants were toys, objects to cast the slightest of doubt within the eyes of a predator. Zaki had no interest in them, and she was simply following the caravan as a passenger of sorts.

But the noise in which they traveled was nothing to the constant buzz of thoughts in the back of her head. While they now shared that precious space, Zaki was ordered, if not forced, to keep her rather disturbing thoughts to herself. She couldn't quite get over it, as she had been basically ordered not to think! It was difficult, yet oddly relaxing at the same time. She twirled her long hair around her fingers, then contemplated her situation. A pleasant little church was nearby, she'd have to visit the pastor, ask him some questions, and plausibly find out if he needed her attentions.

She left the caravan without a word nor a man taking notice, and strolled into the edges of Ondolond. The tavern she picked to start her search was an affair in mediocrity. The Juggling Jester, and it appeared to be filled with traders and their guards. It would be a good place to start her search for this paladin. The guards knew rumors, they knew the deeds of the great men who they wished they could be. Zaki slid into the tavern, and sat down at a table with a guard.

"I'm looking for a paladin, a proud yet unreliable one, as he's been characterized to me. He has a ...great foe, and my family's village is being terrorized by it." Zaki said, daintily flicking her long eyelashes. She tried to look as harmless as possible, hiding her fingernails and trying to keep a smile on her pale lips. The archrauko looked positively human, if the slight details of eyes, hair, and fingernails were ignored. Today would test the human qualities of her, as she doubted she'd be able to survive otherwise.

"Weakness kills." Zakiyyah muttered.

Captain InSaNo - February 23, 2008 01:29 AM (GMT)
InSaNo just hanging there. Finaly a time to just hang because there was nothing to do it was the steriotypical boring day. So Captain InSaNo was just drinking the day away.

Then he heard that some paladins were in town. InSaNo always thought paladins where cool just never thought the life style was his kind of way. He always liked the way of freedom and out in the open sea. Then he seen somone pop up asking for a paladin. InSaNo thought that she barely looks like she could stand on her own. She loks far to innocent as he looks at her face doesnt look like she has the face for it, but then he heard her talk about how the paladin was terrorizing their vilage.

Then he knew that this was going to be a fun day as long as he can proove himself worthy or convince her for him to join. He knew it might have to be prooving himself once he noticed the claws and the eyes. She had to be more then just some ordianary human. So he thought to himself of how to convince her and he only had one chance to do it.

InSaNo walked over to where the girl was and offered to buy her a drink. "thats if you are old enough to drink otherwise i could still buy you something else." offered InSaNo. "but cutting to the chance... i have an idea... You seem to want some revenge on this paladin of yours" InSaNo cauciously speaking the whole time. "but with the description of this paladin of yours it seems you might need some help and i just might be that help for you" schemishly said captain InSaNo. "Sure... i might of killed a bunch of innocent people but you could just count that as experience just dont give me a reason to try to kill you and count yourself safe for now" humerously saying as well as to make sure that she knows not to double cross him for any reason. "whadda ya say???" asked InSaNo
