Elemental Champions: The Necro War

[Zender_Solarheart]

Victor awakens to a new day, stretching to limber up his muscles. Today's another big day, and he'll need to be in peak physical condition for it. He takes care of the necessary hygiene tasks, gets dressed, and exits his room, meeting up with Nyx along the way. "Good morning, Nyx. Did you sleep well?" he asks, just in time to hear her groggy complaint on mornings in general. "Oh...I guess that's a 'no,' then..."

Upon meeting Sort at the bar, Victor lets him know: "Good morning, Captain Sort. I'll be back soon; going to accompany Nyx on her bow-shopping." He then does just what he said he'd do, walking off with Nyx, making sure Mjolnir is at his side. Considering the town's overall thoughts on anyone who's not a human male, he'll be ready to draw it on a moment's notice...

Blue flinches as Sorts voice reverberates in his ears but sighs in relief as the warmth of Sorts magic spreads through him and the pain in his head fades. Ah that's worlds better. Not entirely sure what you did but it's greatly appreciated. Now that it feels like my skull is no longer splitting. I think I'll grab something for breakfast. No point going into a deadly situation on an empty stomach. Blue then rises from his seat and retrieved himself some food then returns to his original spot.

Dax listened past the sarcasm. He knew she was upset and he was trying to listen more to the words than the tone. Then he heard it. His jaw clenched tight with anger,"They did what. No. Those... those selfish prices of... I can see why you were so upset Lilia. Looks like I got off lucky. Don't worry... I'm sure those pricks will get what they deserve... to think I used to think that they were so benevolent..." He said with his voice trailing off. He pushed his plate away slightly in disgust,"Fuck... I will just have to finish that later... it was good fish too."

[Sortaix]

Tavern:

After Sort gave Nyx some gold he then went over to where Dax and Lilia were sitting. He greeted them before asking if either of them needed a little healing to get over and lingering hangovers. Little else occurred as people were just now waking up. Though, the resistance fighters should be back before long.

Derka-Derka Street:

As Nyx and Vic made their way outside, they would notice that it was still early enough in the morning for the dew to still be lingering. The market district was to the east, and fortunately their seemed to be little activity so far this morning, from guards or anyone. The people in this city must not be early risers.

"I'll be fine." she says somewhat hostilely to Sortaix. She knows he isn't the cause of all the problems the assholes have brought on her, but she never really liked him so he seems a damn good outlet.

Nyx rubbed her eye and yawned
She muttered something incomprehensible and looked towards Victor
"I personally don't believe that they will even stock the kind of bow my people use..."

[CryptidChimera]

Blue quietly ate his breakfast. Casting a quick glance over at the table occupied by Lilia, Dax and visited by Sort before returning to his meal. When finished Blue leans back in his seat and slouches a little as he stares up at the ceiling and contemplates the mess he's found himself in and the day ahead, while mumbling to himself I can't help but feel that this is going to be a long day.

Hearing Nyx voice her concerns, Victor tries to alleviate them with a reassuring smile, and a confident statement to match: "Well, we won't know unless we check, hm?" Some people in this situation might've made a comment such as "a bow's a bow," but Victor can sympathize; admittedly, he wouldn't feel the same wielding any sword other than Mjolnir.

Walking up with Nyx to the most efficient-looking shop, Victor steps up with her, and says: "Good morning. What bows might you have in stock today?"

[daxtinator396]

Dax shakes his head at Sort,"No. I think we are fine. When will Terra and the others be back?" He asks hopefully. She was just the person he needed to see. That would bring his mind off of things. A pretty girl and good conversation. Battle too. Nothing like a good battle to clear your mind. Adrenaline... anger... cleansing. That's what he needed. This stewing.in his own anger and remorse was doing nothing except putting him off his food. He had the restless urge to go walk somewhere but no where to go. He certainly couldn't walk around by himself and sure as hell not with Lilia. "What to do..." He thought quietly to himself as his face took on a look of deep contemplation.

[Sortaix]

Tavern:

Sort responded to Lilias hostility by simply raising his hands and backing off, offering his apologies for disturbing her. The group then had a few minutes more to eat or chat before, everyone's favorite bird flew in through a window. Mirna was fluttering her wings as fast as she could, and almost sounding out of breath as she spoke to Sort.
"Sort get up and move! We have got a real problem!"
"Calm down Mother and tell me what's...
However Mirna interrupting, now sounding frantic.
"Shut up and move, now! Sierra is int this city and she has the scroll!"
"The scroll?"
Sort asked her with a questioning look.
Mirna was now sounding angry and panicky as she practically shouted at him.
"THE scroll, the one thousand year old, blood of two thousand innocents scroll, you idiot, MOVE!"
Now, a moment went by as Sorts mind absorbed this, but after he did, he bolted out of the tavern fast enough, that he was out the door before his chair hit the ground, Mirna flapping behind him. Though, the group still in the tavern had only a few minutes to wander at what was going on before their contacts from the rebel forces came in.
Caron and Terrar both walked into the tavern, shortly after Sort left. Both figures were wearing some leather armor designed to protect them, while still allowing freedom of movement. They both came in, and sat down at a table near Dax and Lilia. Terra then asked Dax where the three missing members of their group were.

Merchant District:

Nyx and Victors walk was a few minutes, fortunately no one hassled them during their trip. They soon arrived in the district where merchants of all stripes were selling every thing imaginable. After a few more minutes though, they quickly found a small hunting store that sold bows and arrows, as well as other hunting equipment. The store had a sign out front depicting a bow just releasing an arrow, and a deer at the other side of the sign. They could try that store or walk around and see what the street vendors have, though they probably don't have long before they get called to fight today.

[MiscChaos]

Lilia's already sour expression devolves into a visage of pure hatred and disgust the moment the bird flew in the door. It was all she could do not to whip up some lightning to make herself some roasted bird. She wouldn't even eat it. She'd just bury it somewhere deep in the ground. Not even the lowliest cur deserves the stomachache digesting it would incur. She doesn't know or care what has the pigeon all panicky. If it wouldn't inevitably come down on her head, she might even enjoy the prospect of the little parasite all frantic. As it is, she welcomes the brief silence of both the winged rat and Sortaix being gone and makes sure to make her expression more pleasant when the rebels come in. Just enough not to sent anyone running for the hills. They're not the ones she's angry with after all. Matter of fact, she's at least on civil terms with Caron, what with him guiding her to the rebel hideout and all, so her plastic upbeat look becomes a bit more realistic rather than a mask.

"The others have got things to do, but I expect Victor and Nyx to be back long before Sortaix." she says to Terra, looking like she's talking to Dax. There must be a reason the two of them picked a table near them rather than right with them after all. "So what's up?"

[daxtinator396]

Dax noticed the look on Lilia's face as that annoying little bird,"Lilia be easy please... she isn't worth it. I haven't a clue on what she meant... wait did she say Sierra?" He asked worriedly as he heard the last part. He let that stew as Sort ran off. Well... nothing was being destroyed so it couldn't be that bad... had to keep an eye on it. Then Terra came in and his mood brightened visibly. He heard the question and answered,"Hmm... I think that they went to get a bow? I thought I might have heard that. Sort ran off a few minutes ago. Um... why won't you guys come sit with us? You can sit next to me." He said with a smile.
