Stretching northward along the coastline of the Suvan Sea, the Cobalt Mountains are the home of the Bronze Wood, numerous ruins, and creatures both strange and fantastical.

[The Kabrin Road] A momentary reprise

83rd Spring 513AV
7th Bell

When Fallon rose the sun had only just begun to rise across the land, and with her blurry mind she put a thought she had been harbouring for a while into action. For days her mind had been filtering in and out of thought, and it was as on this day that it screamed out the loudest. It begged and called to her to go out and simply disappear from the eye of the people for just a little while. To begin with her feet were heavy and uncalculated, but as her mind buzzed into life did she become more and more animated. Orvin was awoken, her things packed. Armour was garbed, the weaponry strapped to her.

She walked, slapping down a note on the table before continuing on her way. It was little more than a reminder to the few that still existed within the dormitories, and should they ever wonder on her where about. Or if she never returned at least then they could have a place to start looking. She passed the few others on her way, a polite nod with the mumble of “good morning,” under her breath. Not that they seemed to pay much attention. Her feet quickened as she approached the stables, and gave a greeting to the few early morning staff, before going to her mount. The world was a blur around her, Javil being saddled up and tended too in the breaking dawn. Tired fingers pulled the saddle around the horse; careful hands stroked at his sides as she worked her way round and checked he was indeed fit for riding.

Hands ran across the spine, and then down to the legs to the hooves, tired eyes darting from each to check for signs that he was indeed being looked after. She softly hushed him when he gave a snort, and pulled the bridle along his snout. The reigns were clipped into place and tightened, and the last of the straps were secured. She loaded up the saddlebags, and without a moment of hesitation she swung herself up into the saddle. After that it turned into a mad race, her heels went to his sides, the horse going from a gentle walk into a trot out of the city. Orvin followed close behind, paws padding against the ground. The squire gave an incline to the shaggy creature as she picked up her speed “Orvin, let’s move.”

There was the click of the tongue, the thoughts of the Kabrin Road opening out before her and the knowledge that world was being served to her. She was free from the city and free for a while from the closed in walls. Her feet dug into the sides of the creature as she tightened her hold onto the reigns. It would be a worthwhile trip, and she prayed that the effort she put into it would pay off. She gently urged Javil on, straightening her back whilst her eyes sheepishly checked her feet were in the stirrups. Orvin was walking next to her, head looking up at her and then ahead once more as they made their way to the main gate.

It gave a snort, hooves clipping against the floor whilst her eyes darted about her surroundings. She could hear the faint clatter of metal against the side of the saddle, the chink of the lantern against the backpack that had been strapped there. Across the back a series of arrows had been strapped in place, the short bow with them. The plan was set to only be a few days out of the main body of the citadel, far enough away that she escaped the main bustle of the city life and could become one with nature. Whether or not those few days would turn out to be longer was currently unknown to her, but that was a mystery that would be solved in due time. For the moment she was enjoying the solitude. Her mind drifted from the road, the cogs slowly turning over as she flickered through thoughts and ideas, on areas to focus upon first.

Pulling to a halt just outside the main gate, Fallon looked back at the guards that were stood there before giving a respectful nod to them and continuing on her way. The plan was to see if indeed anyone did come after the previous day's arrangement, and if they could rise to the challenge. Admittedly she had arrived a few bells early, but she always thought it better to be early over being late. She felt Javil give a snort as she stopped a few yards away from the main gate and waited for those few to arrive. If they ever did, at present she would be unsurprised if they did not show face. And if they did not, then she would simply travel alone and train in solitude.

[The Kabrin Road] A momentary reprise

Postby Varus on May 15th, 2013, 4:52 pm

The sun shined through the window of the little pycons room as he rose off of one of the pillows he had pulled from the bed. "It is time for adventure!" he said happily as he gathered his stuff, storing it inside of him. He ran down the stairs and out the door as he hurried to meet up with Fallon, and the others. "Adventure! Adventure!" he cheered happily as he ran out of the main gates, he turned quickly and waved at the guards with a smile on his face. They didn't pay him any mind as he made his way towards the meeting place. "Friend! Friend!" he squeeked jumping up and down as he made his way towards Fallon, Orvin and the horse. "Hello! Are you ready for adventure?" he asked looking at Orvin. He reached out and patted the wolf before looking around. "Where are the others" he asked curiously. He assumed that they had yet to arrive and so he sat down next to Orvin. After a few ticks he sighed and said "Where are they!"

[The Kabrin Road] A momentary reprise

Postby Edrik on May 20th, 2013, 1:16 pm



Edrik had a very bad night. He was so excited it had been almost impossible for him to close his eyes. And when he finally did, it was already the early morning, when the shy sun lightens the bottom of the sky, making stars disapear one by one.

Hopefuly, his cat came and leaked his face few hours later, just in time for him not being late to his meeting. His eyelids were suddenly very loud, but the impatience to discover and learn was more powerful than any kind of tiredness. Even more excited than the day before, Edrik packed his food and gold on his bag and left the roof he had slept on.

"Come on Athys" he said his cat, and the beautiful black animal followed him.

Edrik had long hesitated about Athys. Should he take it with him or make it understand that he will come back soon? In the end, Edrik decided to do as he had always done : to let the cat decide. And Athys had obviously decided it would come.

Edrik crossed the sleeping town as silently as usual, like another shadow in the narrow streets. He finally arrived on the gate, where he saw Fallon on her horse, waiting a few steps further. As he approached, Edrik also noticed that the little creature - Varus ? he was not so sure - was already there, sitting near the wolf.

Speaking about the wolf, Edrik felt that Athys had become very nervous. How could it be one day used to the wild dog? Edrik wondered. So he bent over the cat and took it on his arms to calm it down. "Relax Athys" he whispered "Be nice".

"Hello" Edrik smiled to the little compagny "Nice day to travell"

Orvin gave a snort at the Pycon, snout pushing against the clay before his eyes turned up to his master. There was a moment of silent regard as the squire looked back down at him, before giving a nod.
“Varus, good morning,” she pulled at the reigns of Javil and dismounted. Nervously she gave the horse a firm pat on the side, before turning her attention along the road. She held onto the reigns firmly, crouching down to the height of the Pycon. She gave a nod to him, and gestured to pick him up.
“Yes… soon there will be adventure, don’t worry about that,” She plucked the Pycon up and placed him onto the back of Orvin. The wolf gave a scowl at his master, before his head turned away almost in disgust with the idea “Unless you would rather ride up in the saddle bags with me, I advise holding on to him tightly.” The squire gave a smile, before straightening herself out and looking back towards the city “Give them time, we are early after all.”

She raised a hand to wave at Edrik as he approached with a single “hello” escaping as her as he came within earshot. The squire gave a glance at the cat, and then to the boy with his bag “You want me to put your load up in the saddle bags for you Edrik?” Holding tightly onto the reigns with one hand she led the horse round to the side of the road and out of the main path of people coming in and out of the city. The squire gestured for the wolf to come after her before once more she addressed the pair of them “Yeah, seems like a good day for travel. We’re still early for the meeting time though, so…” She gave a shrug “If there’s anything you need to do or get, now is the time to do it. Same with those last minute supplies. You need to do it, do it now.”

Firmness would have been the best way to describe how things were going. Had she been by herself then the squire would be more relaxed with the whole trip, but with these two following her along with possible others, she had to keep herself on her toes and worry about where the others were. She did not fancy having to trek after them into the wildlands after all, “Either way, I’ll be waiting around for a bit, just incase anyone else comes along.”

[The Kabrin Road] A momentary reprise

Postby Scarlet Evony on May 22nd, 2013, 12:07 pm

Scarlet had taken care of everything she needed for the trip. She doubted she'd need a tent for the trip, since her eagle form would be more than comfortable with a tree branch for the night. However, she wanted a way to transport her belonings while in her more simple form. Earlier, she had gone down to the bazaar for the two items necessary for this voyage.
She had packed all of her clothes in a pouch she had made out of linen, carefully tied as to not let them fall during her flight. In the meantime, she also made sure to fly more gently than she usually did, as to not drop her precious cargo.

Inside the pouch, hidden amongst her packed clothes was an eagle egg she had bouyght from a trader. It seemed in good shape and probability was that she would be able to take care of it. However, only time could tell. Once at the rendezvous point, she set her pack near Fallon, then skipped swiftly in front of her. She gave her a hopeful look, trying to tell what she wanted of her in her eyes. Sadly, she never felt experienced enough to know what her interlocutor wanted without a word. To signal she was there, she simply spread open her wings, folded them back together, then skipped back near her package, carefully watrching it. No harm would come to her little baby.


Receipt:
Eagle egg - 50GM
Linen (1 sqr yard)- 4GM
