Kel watched with interest as Alaia danced around with the man before finally ending his life. The emotions that swirled across the Konti’s face forced a smirk to cross the Svefra’s expression and he nodded in approval.


He remembered what it was like to take the life of another for the first time. It was not a pleasant experience. Though, the shipwright who killed a few of his pod had deserved his fate. It didn’t stop him from remembering it though. But just like everything Kel felt, he buried the memories and emotions deep within, hiding them, pushing them away so to not deal with them.


He pushed the thoughts away and slowly walked across the area; eyes focused on the parallelized man who lay sprawled out across the forest floor. Kel ignored the dead body and the woman as he stopped just above the man. He lifted a foot and placed it against the bandit’s jaw, shoving it so he was forced to look at his dead friend.


Kel slowly crouched down after a few ticks after allowing him to stare into his dead friend’s shocked expression before grabbing the man’s face with a hand and jerked it back towards him, blue eyes shards of stone. Fear shone in the man’s face as he, unable to move, had no choice but to stare at the imposing Svefra. Ice dripped from Kel’s voice as he spoke evenly to the man, menace hovering just at the edge of his words.


“Today is yehr’ lucky day, mate. I killed yehr’ pals in teh’ clearin’ just over thurr and this woman killed yehr’ friend. This ain’t the first outlaws that’ve died at me hand and it probably won’t be teh’ last. I want yeh’ to remember me face. Teh’ name’s Kel Tempest. Remember it and tell yehr’ friends. Spread it ‘round, tell ‘em what the Tempests are capable of. Don’t petch with us.”


Kel slowly stood, leaving the man where he lay, wincing in pain as his wound tightened. He propped himself up on his trident and looked over at Alaia.


“Yeh’ think yeh’ could wrestle that shirt off teh’ man yeh’ killed? I kinda need a new one after yeh’ sliced me other one…”


If she did he would grunt in appreciation and gesture for her to come over. If she did, he would throw his arm around her shoulder on his good side and she would assist him in walking to the beach. He looked at her and cocked an eyebrow.


“Yehr’ first kill, eh?”

Alaia didn’t pay attention to what Kel was saying to the paralyzed bandit, she just moved towards him with heavy steps when he spoke to her. “No.” She stated in response to his request for the shirt off the man she just killed. She didn’t want to touch him and she didn’t want to look at him again. Vaguely she was aware that his shirt was also ruined with a rip from her suvai and his spilt blood. Alaia knelt at the still conscious man, a grunt escaping her throat from her own wounds but she began removing his shirt instead since it wasn’t so damaged. It was still bloody but it wasn’t ripped. The Konti was careful to not touch him which only made the process take longer then she wanted but she had no desire to see what was going on in his mind.

Finally the shirt was up and over his head and she was holding it up to offer it to Kel while her other hand reached out to press against his face where she had scratched him with her suvai “I’m so sorry.” She murmured to him and used her healing to close the wound with a soft blessing spoken in her mind. There was no way the healer was going to leave his wound festering, she didn’t know when he would be able to start moving and she wanted to make sure that he would be okay when he stood. There was nothing she could do for the other man now so she focused her healing on the first that had attacked her. When she had touched him images of darkness filled her mind, he was so angry his future actions were unclear but they left a nasty taste in her mouth.

Finally Alaia stood and when Kel’s arm was throw over her shoulders so she could help support him she winced and shifted her weight briefly to get more comfortable with their height differences. Carefully Alaia wrapped her arm around his waist, her hand resting on his hip, while her free hand held her suvai warily and they began walking. His words made her shake her head though the shake wasn’t in denial it was more an attempt to get the memory from her mind. She didn’t answer his question, she didn’t want to speak because she didn’t trust herself not to start crying so instead she steeled herself to silence. Either way she was sure that he knew it was her first kill, and hopefully her last even if it was in self-defense.

The rest of the walk to the beach passed in a blur, the healer didn’t even realize how much time had passed by the time they got there but it was already afternoon. Her eyes were haunted as she stared ahead without really seeing where they were going. Finally the sand was beneath her feet and if Kel let her she would lower him to the ground just a few feet from the water. “Let me look at you, you were stupid to fight you might had hurt yourself more.” If he let her she’d begin examining the wound she had dressed before the fight as well as to see if there was anything else that needed tending to. “Did you get hurt again? If not I’ll help you to the water, the ocean will be good for your side. Where do you live Kel? We should get you home or to the Gilia, whichever is closer.”

Notes :
“If by harmed, you mean dead, then yea. They’re very harmed.” Love it.

I actually heard about the incident with you and Chandray but never got to see any of the involved threads. It’s interesting to hear what happened right from the horse’s mouth!

Also, since Alaia is gone, I didn’t award any lores related to her. Let me know if you’d like them anyway though.

Another great little thread with a ton of quotable quotes from our boy Kel. Glad we got to see it at least almost-finished?


If you have any questions or concerns about what was awarded, don't hesitate to PM me. When you're finished, please edit or delete your grade request from the grading queue.
