Sigi, Aud, and Deen are surprised by a wyvern

Role play in Skarvald, Second Life fantasy Norse with Audfrith, Gilrin Hunt, Balder Foehammer, Sigrid Holgarsen, Tiger Wyvern, Deen HalfBlood, Alleyne, Samuel Thornheart, Alondia For the second day in a row, the wolf that had made the uncertain peace with Audfrith did not show up at the feeding area.  Aud wound her way down the rocky hill to the cave she knew the wolf slept in.  As she neared, she heard the familiar growl of the wolf, warning her to keep her distance.  "It's okay, Wolf, just here to bring you your dinner," Audfrith said clearly, watching the dark cave opening for the familiar yellow eyes.  There they were.  But the wolf was laying down, as if hurt, and Audfrith's concern almost overcame her judgment.  "What's wrong, Wolf?" she said, getting too close, and the wolf growled again.  Audfrith put the deer meat she'd brought in offering down to the wolf, saying, "It's okay, I will try to get you some help."  The wolf silently watched her from inside the cave. [12:55] Audfrith: Aud made her way through the market, asking everyone she knew if they knew where Sigrid or Dayne were.  She hoped that the animal healer would be able to make a trip down soon.  Only two weeks ago, she plotted to kill this wolf, and now she is skipping her work to save it. [13:04] Audfrith: Audfrith approached the Mead Hall stairs with a low mumble about cities and their stairways. [13:04] Audfrith: "Greeting, King Balder," Audfrith bowed to the king as she saw him approach. [13:05] Gilrin Hunt: looked as the King entered "Good day to you Sire " she greeted him [13:04] Balder Foehammer nods to her as he enters "Scout ..Good day" [13:05] Balder Foehammer helps her up [13:06] Gilrin Hunt I"ll have the ale Sigi..thank you" her mouth watering now at the odor of the soup [13:06] Balder Foehammer nods to all "Good day All.." [13:07] Audfrith: Aud frowned as her eyes adjusted to the light of the Hall.  There was always too much smoke and too many smells of others in these places, and she seemed uncomfortable as she tried to make out whether Sigi was in the large hall. [13:09] Sigrid Holgarsen heard the door open ,seeing the King and Audfrith walking in - she smiled "Greetings to ye both" she called out"I'll be right with ye" filling Gilrin Tankard with Ale and came back to set the tray on the table "There ye go" she smiled ,then turned towards Balder,but seeing him was busy with some measurements from the hall,she decided not to bother him and went to stand beside Audfrith"How have ye been?" [13:10] Balder Foehammer hears Sigrid as the Questions and comes over Seeing Gilrin and Audfirth..He nods to each [13:10] Audfrith: Finally Audfrith's eyes cleared just as she heard Sigi's voice calling.  "Ah, Sigi, good, you be here," Aud sighed with relief. [13:10] Gilrin Hunt downed the soup faster than she realized and then felt an urge to use the privy " If you'll excuse me for a time..I'll be back soon to have another bowl" she smiled and ran off [13:13] Audfrith: "Ah, Sigi, I have a problem that maybe you and Dayne could help me with.  There's a wolf by my house, and it seems to be sickly these last two days," Aud says back to Sigi, eyeing the good-smelling porridge. [13:14] Balder Foehammer takes the food off the tray "Sigrid..I wish to speak with Dayne. There is much to ask about Deen. He seems to know more or wants to know more" [13:14] Sigrid Holgarsen blinked"But ye can't leave,ye....." she closed her mouth and shook her head "maybe she has te use te privy" she giggled to herself,giving Audfrith and the King a smile"Anything I can get ye Jarl?" she ask with a bat of her lashes - then turned to look at Audfrith"Oh dear a sick wolf? . I don't know -  Dayne went hunting,not sure when he will be back" she said [13:16] Sigrid Holgarsen turning her eyes back to Balder"I haven't seen Deen in two days either,I had thought Dayne took him hunting - is everything alright?,I mean he isn't too much trouble is he?" she ask in a worried tone [13:18] Balder Foehammer looks to Sgrid "Deen has been coming around the Keep. Wishing to be let in...and he aided in tracking the whereabouts of a wanted individual...I wanted to know more of the boys heritage" [13:19] Audfrith: Audfrith turned to the King at his question as well.  It appeared that the village needed an animal handler more than she had imagined.  She took a cup that Sigi offered and decided to have a seat while she thought about what to do next.  She listened to what the King was saying about Deen.  "Isn't he the new adopted boy?  Did you take him in, Sigi?" she asked her friend. [13:21] Sigrid Holgarsen nodded looking at the King "I can't tell ye too much myself - I know he was raised by his mother,but it couln't have been for long,we assume the boy was on his own most of his life,hence te trouble with speaking ,he must have survived on his own for all this time,Dayne thinks he should be about 16" Sigi turned back to answer her friends question"Nay we didn't adopt him,he is Daynes real son " [13:23] Balder Foehammer nods to her "Very well..When Dayne returns..I wish to speak with him." He rubs his chin and looks around [13:23] Audfrith: "Oh...." Audfrith stammered.  She took a longer drink of mead to keep her mouth still, in case she would say something wrong about the boy. [13:27] Sigrid Holgarsen bobbed a curtsy "Aye Jarl,I will let him know ye wish te speak with him" seeing her friends expression she smiled"I was shocked as well,but men will be men - he better nay be straying now or I will pummel his hide" she giggled "But yes,te boy needs lots of guidance and our great Jarl has offered te take him in and teach him" she said with pride to Audfrith. [13:27] Balder Foehammer laughs for the comment..and then moves on his way- [13:27] Balder Foehammer: ---Ill be back later. I have been feeling off n on semi ok today [13:28] Sigrid Holgarsen gave him a worried glance,but nodded"Be safe Jarl" she called after him"I hope he is alright and not a mysterious illness goes about" she whispered to Audfrith [13:29] Audfrith: Aud nodded her approval at her friend's attitude and smart viewpoint.  "Good day to you, King," Aud stood and bowed again.  "Could I get someone to look at cutting the grass up by my place, d'ye think, Sire?  The grass is going clean through the tabletop out front," she said, toasting him with her glass. [13:35] Second Life: ::DB:: Autumn Warmth Serving Platter owned by Sigrid Holgarsen gave you 'Cider Cup'  ( Artstonia (33,154,52) ). [13:35] Second Life: ::DB:: Autumn Warmth Serving Platter owned by Sigrid Holgarsen gave you 'Soup Bowl'  ( Artstonia (33,154,52) ). [13:56] Sigrid Holgarsen placed the tray on the table and took a seat with Audfrith"Ye know if Deen was able te understand and talk and walk upright,I could send him by te cut yer grass fer ye Audfrith" she said"But the boy is still nowhere near such tasks,shame really " [13:57] Audfrith: "D'ye think the King might be ill?  And he is the king, id'ne, but ye allays Jarl call him," Aud says to her friend under her breath.  Aud didn't know what to say about the boy really.  She was not sure if he was quite human, but so many people here in Skarvald were not. [13:59] Sigrid Holgarsen bit her lower lip"He might be,he wasn't his usual chatty self,but ye never know with them shifters" she said nodding"Aye,the King himself is a shifter i have heard and so is Deen,thats why I am so glad he is under the Kings wings - somebody that help the boy with his moods and such" [14:02] Audfrith: "There are more things in Midgard and Valhalla than one can know," Aud nodded, starting to feel the effects of the mead.  "What d'ye know about wolves?" [14:04] Second Life: A group member named Vixynne Ariantho gave you Day Of Remembrance -- February 9. [14:05] Sigrid Holgarsen nodded in agreement,then shrugged"That ye best run if ye see one" she said"But Dayne loves them and he has a white wolf" gasping suddenly"Oh dear is it a white wolf ye found?" she ask with worry in her voice [14:06] Audfrith: "No, no," she said quickly to comfort her friend. [14:07] Audfrith: "There be a wolf living in the woods near my house.  Darned thing kept me in my house for three days, threatening me," she explained. [14:09] Sigrid Holgarsen exhaled relieved"Oh good,cause that would break Dayns heart if something would happen to Ama" she said,reaching over to take a bowl with soup from the tray"Want some?" she offered ,then gasped again"Oh no,what did ye do?,did ye kill it?" she wanted to know "Cause if a wolf threatened me,I would take a bow and arrow and shoot the darn thing dead,I am taking bow lessons by the way - Kings orders fer having such poor aim at the trial" [14:12] Audfrith: Audfrith laughed out loud.  "Ye were quite the sight: No MERCY, No Mercy!"  No, I didn't kill it.  We sort of decided to become neighbors and I feed it now, every day, a little something.  But she's not shown up to be fed for the last two days, and when I went to her den, she seems sick."  Aud took the soup bowl gladly. [14:15] Sigrid Holgarsen heard the door latch open and close,open and close and the sound drove her to madness - "Will ye yet yer ass in here whoever ye be?" she shouted towards the door"AND STOP THAT!! " giving Audfrith an exasperated glance before she got up to  walk to the door to see who the culprit was,playing with the door latch, but she paused half way there and turned back to look at Audfrith"OH maybe if its a 'she' she could be with cubs?" tossing that idea out there ,then resuming her way to the door [14:17]  Deen HalfBlood: was continuously opening and closing the door off in his own little mesmerized world now... open...close... open..close.. open..close... when his ears perked to shouting... and he -did- understand the word 'stop'... but.. being him... and NOT LIKING loud shouting... he immediately went wide eyed... not thinking... and let out a growl as he slammed the door and bolted around the corner. [14:19]  Tiger Wyvern Landed silently behind the young boy, as he'd creep slowly towards him sadly his attempt for sneaking was in vain as the boards under his weight would creek loudly giving him away. Its gaze now intently locked on the small boy it turned its head adjusting one eye on him his pupil dialating as it did [14:20] Audfrith: "Sigi?  What's going on?"  Aud stood, drawing her shield and sword as she joined her friend at the open door. [14:21] Sigrid Holgarsen opened the door,expecting to see one of the children from the village having fun playing tricks - Sigi jumped a bit as the door was slammed shut,but she saw no one,she would open it slowly and peeked around the corner,seeing Deen sitting in the snow and suddenly a large creature landed right behind Deen"Sigi jumped and creamed,shutting the door quickly before she could see what it was and ran back to Audfrith"Thors hammer,I think were under attack" she said out of breath from the shock . [14:24] Audfrith: Aud moved to stand between Sigi and the door, her sword at the ready, her shield in her left hand. [14:24] Sigrid Holgarsen points to the door wide eyed"Deen is out there and a beast the size of this hall landed behind him,I don't know what it was but it was red and glowing and with huge fangs and talons - a monster from the depth of the abyss" she rambled,trying to hide behind Audfrith"Be careful" she warned [14:25]  Deen HalfBlood: his muscles now tensed...and ears lowered, he gruffed and moved back along the wall....when he blinked and several things happened at once... one.. his head jerked up seeing Ma... at the same time catching an unknown scent coming up from behind him...making the wood creak... and not liking anything sneaking up from behind... it made him whirl around wide eyed as he let out an instinctive snarl... his eyes adjusting to seeing a -red- wyvern... the boy had seen a blue... but red was new... when his heard jerked and ears clamped over his ears then hearing Ma scream and slam the door... his muscles now tensing even more with the heightened stimulation... and he slammed himself against the wall gripping the stone .. for two reasons... he was HIGHLY alert and tense... and it was a sense of control... so that he would -hopefully- not do anything stupid? Gray eyes honed in on the wyvern that had come up from behind as his ears lowered and almost flattened... with huffed grunts [14:25]   at every breath. [14:26] Door: emmiedee Resident is at the door. [14:26] Audfrith: Audfrith opened the door quickly with her shield hand, and sensing the boy more than seeing him, she called, "DEEN! HERE!  NOW!!"  Her eyes widened as she saw the giant dragon-looking creature behind him. [14:28] Sigrid Holgarsen was more nosy then she was afraid and tried to stay close to Audfrith who had a sword and shield - peeking from around her to the Dragon like creature and realizing it wasn't as big as she had said it was,matter of fact it looked to be a youngun from one of the bigger dragons,maybe it had fallen out of its nest or whatever it was they slept in [14:29] Door: AriellaClair Resident is at the door. [14:29]  Tiger Wyvern looked curiously at the boy he'd now lean in and if allowed would sniff at him the exhaling from his nose causing the boys hair to furrow, letting out a playfull call as the boy smelt more like an animal then the other people of this realm, However this was short lasted as the woman came out and as she shouted the Wyvern's eyes darted open. Retreating some steps from the boy it would slam its forelimbs and tail against the ground raising itself as it let out and ear shattering roar [14:31] Audfrith: "Sigi!  Wait!," Aud said in a hushed tone as Sigi walked by Aud's ready pose.  "What IS that thing?" Aud asked aloud, wondering as it seemed to move closer and sniff the boy's hair. [14:34]  Deen HalfBlood: huffed now alerted on ALL sides... his gray eyes glanced toward the door.. then back to the red wyvern...-carefully- observing it.. body language and all... hands still clenched to the stone of the wall... he blinked as the wyvern scented him making his hair furrow. Still clutching the stone... the huffed grunts very slowly... started to ease a little... though cautious eyes remained watching... was this one good like the other he had met? A slow tilt of his head as he continued to watch... when he jumped gripping the wall again, and his head jerked toward the yelling of one calling his name...not recognizing the voice at all.. nor the scent... it made his muscles tense again... as he gripped the stone and started to shuffle back into the corner... ears pinned as he let out a low warning growl... that is... until his hands went flying to his ears hearing the ear shattering roar... and his eyes clenched tight.. apparently -this- house was VERY known for loud noises! [14:34] Sigrid Holgarsen felt a bit more brave now realizing this was a baby dragon [or so she thought] until she heard its deafening roar and shrieked ,hiding behind Audfrith again"DEEN,are ye alright?" she called to the boy,eyes on the wyvern ,clinging to Audfrith [14:36] Audfrith: Aud watched carefully, ready to lunge at the dragon if she needed to. [14:39]  Tiger Wyvern watched the boy cower to the corner it looked directly at him letting out some strange call as if it were trying to warn him about the these people. still being quite young itself and just a few years from the nest it looked back to the other two. It would snap its jaws togther causing sparks to fly about almsot as it was warning them to keep their distance. Failing to realize the other woman sneaking up behind him [14:42] Sigrid Holgarsen could not see Deen or Alleyne ,pulling on Audfriths shirt"Lets go back in,i don't think it can come inside" she whispered - perhaps Deen had run off already, Sigi hoped he was not in danger,but felt it best to retreat back into the warmth and security of the Meadhall [14:43] Alleyne blinked as she heard growls, hastening her pace along the bridge until she spotted the red scales beast near the Mead Hall. Her hand almost shot to her blade, until she saw someone plastered to the wall in front to the dragon's snout. Baring fangs, she would cuss in Felin, then try to jog her memories for the words she spoke so long ago, hoping they would be understood here by this drake "itheik, darastrix. thric lowd, thric jatil levnim ekess wux." [14:45] Audfrith: Aud watched as Alleyne came up behind the creature and then spoke some sort of hex around it.  "Go back inside, Sigi, I think the Thane is here to work it out." [14:45]  Deen HalfBlood: the boy's huffed grunts emitted from his chest.. as he slowly released his hands from his ears... muscles still tensed.. though he looked up... ears twitching to Ma calling out to him... making his head jerk in her direction...he was getting frustrated and over amped... his gaze shifted to the red wyvern.... ears still lowered and slightly pinned...pursing his lips together as he set his eyes on her... observing... he shifted his gaze back to toward the two females for a moment... then back to the red wyvern... his ears twitching to the warning call...he leaned to sniff the wyvern... scenting her as she had scented him... then blinked seeing the snapping of jaws... and the sparks... his eyes widened a little...part in fascination... part in that protective nature of his given the situation.... his ears still lowered... glancing again in the direction of the two females... then to the wyvern.... he shifted himself along the wall... the air of caution remaining.. though [14:45]   he extended a hand to the wyvern... [14:45]  Deen HalfBlood: giving a growled whimper... his gaze occasionally shifting to the others... then back to the wyvern... when yet another unknown scent approach... putting him once more on high alert...as his ears pinned back once more... arching himself both defensive... -and- protective... not to mention ... a crowd was forming.... this might not be good... and he let out a low warning snarl... boy couldn't understand draconic either [14:47] Sigrid Holgarsen nodded quickly"Will ye be alright Audfrith?" she ask,seeing her friend had every intention to protect her,but she had to think of her unborn babe"Make sure Deen is alright,please?" she said,then went back inside ,hoping the beast was not in a killing mood. (thank you all for the RP,but I need to get back to RL)) [14:48] Audfrith: ((g'night!  I have to go soon too)) [14:52]  Tiger Wyvern watched as the one woman retreated back into the mead hall his glance moving back to the single woman standing near the doorway before hearing something behind him he whirls around slouched down to the floor snarling only picking pieces from it such as "not attack, and no harm" he turns back to the boy who's hand is extended and if allowed would press his nose into his hand his tongue gently licking at the boys fingers in an attempt to show it was simply not harmful [14:55] Audfrith: Aud put her shield back to her back and started to sheath her sword.  She held up one hand in peace and then the other.  "Okay, Dragony guy, we're all friends here," Audfrith said. [14:58] Alleyne smiled, relieved that this had not turned into a battle. Still, she didn't wish to interfere with the bonding of the boy and the drake, so she simply stepped to the side, and leaned onto the statue, grinning as memories flooded her mind, watching the scene calmly as it unfolded. [15:03] Audfrith: Aud came a little closer to the wyvern, hoping that Deen would come with her back into the mead hall until the thing left.  "Deen, inside?" she asked, looking to the boy. [15:04]  Deen HalfBlood: ears still pinned as he saw the wyvern jerk around and snarl at the approaching female behind him... wow... so he did not like ones coming up from behind either... blink...his ears lowered..then perked.. when he felt the wyvern lick his hand... gray eyes watching the body movements of the other... something he was well adept to in comparison to the verbal tongues of man...he leaned to sniff the wyvern again... committing the scent to memory... hearing the click of a door closing... as Ma's scent started to fade as if she were leaving... his head turned back with a light grunt..when he hunkered down slowly gaging the locations of the other unknown scents around him... ears lowered to his head as much as they could for an elf... his air of caution radiating from him... his demeanor unchanged...he let out an uneasy extendedly long grunt... when he noted the one female put her sharp thing away.... and the other stepping away.... in which case.. his grunting quieted a [15:04]   little... feral gray eyes shifted then [15:04]  Deen HalfBlood: back to the wyvern... as his ears lowered curiously....he had seen a wyvern before... blue... but this one was smaller... red.... was he a young one? A child like curiosity studied this... until it was broken by the sound of his name again... making him gruff as his head jerked... the boy did not know this female...yet she knew his name...his ears flattened slightly once more cautious... [15:09] Audfrith: "Watch out, Samuel!" Aud said quietly as he approached.  "We're not sure who or what this thing is yet, and if he means us good or ill." she said, slightly above a whisper. [15:11] Samuel Thornheart looks at the woman "Damnit....what is that? Has some troll abandon it's fucking pet? " He instinctively grabs his cane tighter and stares at the....thing. [15:12] Alleyne shook her head, resting calmly against the statue "Fret not, unless you startle it or act like you wish to harm it, I believe this one is on a more curious and friendly behavior..." She glared at Sam's tone, still remaining calmly leaned ontot he stone monument.  "Unless you wish to explain to the King how you escalated a situation into a dangerous oe, I would prefer you moderate both tone and voice, Lord Steward." [15:14] Alleyne talked again to the drake, using a slightly amused tone "tall juanth ir harmless. kiri dry ekess balotemas ilrigani." [15:15]  Tiger Wyvern would back up some feeling the boys tension from his body movements. It let out the same playful call it made earlier bobbing its head in a funny manner. but it was short lasted as it motioned its head over to the woman realizing she was no threat anymore almost gesturing in a sense for the boy to go with her. his attention now to the man it had no idea what he said but his tone made it obvious it wasnt nice he snarled towards him in response [15:17] Audfrith: Audfrith found herself smiling a little, wondering if this is what the Master Ranger meant when he said she should develop more of an empathy with animals instead of just killing them for their fur.  As her body continued to relax, the animal seemed more relaxed as well.  She looked toward Deen again to see if the boy was alright. [15:21] Samuel Thornheart looks at the harbinger and snorts "My lady, I do apologize. I did not know I was introduced to a member of your family." When the ...thing ...ventured closer, he stares at it with a strange expression" My my...you should consider a toothbrush and a diet ...... you have halitosis....and scales...." [15:21] Deyvin Ragnhild the boy still remained tense... his lips pursed together as jaw clenched... still... in the corner...his ears perked to the playful call...  though lowered again as he noted the other two unknown females... having -no- clue about dragon speech....and understood very little common... when he caught yet -another- scent.... this one vaguely familiar....  one that had come into his father's home... hearing the tone did not help either as he also heard the wyvern snarl again.... the boy's chest was tightening....  he was in a corner...torn between protective nature and survival...  Ma was -inside- the building...  he was here... surrounded.... he hunkered down and closed his eyes tight as a suppressed muffled grunt echoed between pursed lips.... repeatedly.... hands went tightly to his head as he was feeling over stimulated...  the boy was not a fan of crowds after all.... and he was feeling a bit trapped in the corner.... the hair on his head started to bristle... and his eyes shot open with a golden hue... [15:21] Deyvin Ragnhild:  not a happy camper... [15:21]  Deen HalfBlood: then puts that post in here [15:30]  Tiger Wyvern neared Alleyne by the statue as he'd attempt to sniff at her now if allowed, letting out a shrill afterwards before sensing something from the boy in the corner, the scales on his back now raised as he was in a wary state [15:30] Audfrith: Aud looked to Alleyne, who seemed to speak a language to the dragon.  "Do you think Deen is okay?   I'll want to check on Sigi.  "And... I don't think Deen really trusts me," she added. [15:31] Alleyne twitched her whiskers as things seem to degrade. Trying to keep annoyence ut of her voice, she gave the Steward a rather direct look "Your not helping here, Lord Steward, and I have no wish for anyone to clean up the mess your attitude is creating here. As the King's hand, I ask you to back off this situation, and rein in your temper. Let these two be, they need their space, and clearly you do not even want to be here yourself." She made a small gesture and simply added "Go". then switched to a more guttural language "xoalir ekess xurwk juanth ir jaseve. si huven thric levnim ekess wux usv wer drot." [15:32] Alleyne perked ears and caught the ranger's voice "I am trying to keep him calm. But you might be better for helping the boy ! " [15:34] Samuel Thornheart listens to the harbinger and slowly shifts his position to try to position himself between this afterbirth of a dragon and the boy in the corner, snoring "As if this thing is understanding our tongue...." he mumbles under his breath as he carefully guides his footing. [15:35] Audfrith: Audfrith came closer to the boy and the wyvern, holding her hands out to both, and approaching slowly.  "Deen, Sigi is inside, Come with me," she looked evenly at the boy.  To the wyvern, she said, "Yes, Dragon, you're a nice big dragon, aren't you, and you're just out for a good day."  She reached out with some jerky that she'd had in her sack, and offered it to the dragon in her outstretched hand.  "Deeeeeeeen," she said, looking at the boy and offering him safe passage. [15:37]  Deen HalfBlood: was huffing at this point... trying to suppress the growls he could feel boiling up inside him.... still gripping his head as he tried shutting his eyes tight... his hair bristled hunkered in the corner... the boy wanted to bolt as he could feel that pull...his ears twitching to his name... and when he opened his mouth... came a hollered out growl.... yep.. boy was losing it....the bristled hair began to darken in color....the gray hues of his eyes became a golden shine....unless stopped... he would attempt jerk himself away and bolt..... [15:40] Audfrith: Audfrith would not stop the boy as he ran past her.  She kneeled in a last attempt as the boy seemed to decide whether to run or ... what was that instinct she saw on his face? [15:41]  Tiger Wyvern would tilt his head to what Alleyne said not fully understanding but catching some as it replied in various calls and grunts. His attention now to Audfrith he simply looked at her curios like head tilted the other way as he shrilled lowly towards the jerky it smelt good but he much rather raw meat if anything or spider flesh was his favorite. He'd simply yawn now clmapering closer to Alleyne at least with her she could talk and communicate with him in some sort [15:45]  Alondia was on her way to the keep. She had to get to the kitchens and finish up on the King and Queens and guards and Stewards and everybody's dinner. Once she finally got to the top of the stairs at the mead hall though, she found her path blocked by Sam and some...big red scaly creature. She swallowed hard and stepped a bit closer, assessing the situation but staying quiet and edging along the wall, hoping to go mostly unnoticed. [15:47] Samuel Thornheart looks at the thing and at the harbinger "What language are you talking? Dragonese? Tell this thing to piss of and get to another place where there are nicer dinner options. " He finally managed to place himself between the feral boy and the ...this dragon thingy. [15:51] Alleyne nodded politely to the Dragon "wer juanth sthyr. jaci ui ergriff growls vur thric smunsou. wer drot riluoh seems ekess rigluin ekess qe zulf loaw."  She turned to the steward, her voice a tone of tired disbelief "Had you any reason, you would have realised the drake didn't intend to eat the boy. But trusting those who know their work has never been your forte." Softening her voice she looked at the woman "Take the boy away before he panics more, Lady Ranger, if you please. The drake won't attack." [15:53]  Deen HalfBlood: Yep.. instinct... good word for it. The boy's mind began to fog over... eyes now widened to exponential proportions... jerking back as movements began to seem not his own... huffed growls escaping him... as the darkening of his hair faded into black... and seemed to blanket over his entire body....sounds of breaking bones could be heard... snapping joints... ligaments.. tendons.... his spine thrusting him downward literally onto all fours.... as a muzzle elongated from elven features...filled with razor sharp fangs.... arms and legs molding themselves into four muscular legs complete with claws at the ends of his pads...he let out an instinctive snarl with several grunts... this did -NOT- exactly feel -good-.... as the familiar pain surged throughout his body.... the final touches as a tail protruded from his body while clothes shredded to the ground into the snow.... boots tearing to slivers of leather... the only thing that seemed to conform with him was the golden [15:53]   locket about his neck.... nope... [15:53]  Deen HalfBlood: wolf did not like crowds.... play? Oh yes.. very much so... crowds... big no no.... hm... what to do now... [15:54] Audfrith: Audfrith felt the commotion in the air and sensed the boy's confusion as well as the wyvern's tension.  Sigi had been gone far too long.  She never would have left the boy out here, even with her to protect him, unless something was really wrong in the inn.  She looked up at Alleyne's words and nodded.  "But I cannae take the boy when he does nae want to go." [15:57] Samuel Thornheart growls "Don't expect me to hug any scaly 4 paw mini dragon as a member of my family, or to realize that is simply a family reunion. Keep your relatives where it does not scare the shit out of a wolf boy." He growls "And having trust issues is my second nature, until now i fared well with it...." [15:59]  Alondia edged a little closer, and that was how she noticed the feral boy- his demeanor so much like herself when she first escaped. However once she saw him changing, all of the color swiftly fell from her face. Her violet eyes widened. Oh yes, she had experience with men who could turn into wolves... but he didn't look like the ones she knew. Alondia's mind was not working anymore as she watched the teenage boy change and her hand clutched at her chest as it was tightening. The scene in front of her was fading away and suddenly it was Foalan in front of her, changing into a wolf. She swayed on the spot and her eyes went sort of glassy as she stared at nothing anymore, it was a wonder she didn't fall over from shock...or scream... [16:00] Audfrith: Audfrith looked one last time at Deen, her hand out.  She then looked past Samuel's talk,  shook her head 'no' to the Bastet, and stood.  "I must check on Sigi," she said. [16:02]  Tiger Wyvern lowered its head hearing the boys bones break and reshape he had no idea what was happening even despite his large size he was still a baby himself as he began to emit a low worried shrill towards the boy but keeping his distance. His gaze now towards sam his constant tone beginning to anger the wyvern it snapped its jaws at him more sparks flying as he did now baring his teeth to him [16:02]  Tiger Wyvern lowered its head hearing the boys bones break and reshape he had no idea what was happening even despite his large size he was still a baby himself as he began to emit a low worried shrill towards the boy but keeping his distance.

Come inside!" she stood close to the girl as she turned from the scene. [16:08] Alleyne noticed the drake's anger, turning a blazing glare at the old fool "The drake was acting friendly to the boy until you showed up, and angered him. Dragons can feel emotions, and your hostility is flaring things up even more. By the King's Name, go, Samuel. this drake isn't here to feast." She paused and turned her voice tone to ice "As for referring to me as a Beast, Lord Steward, it is what is called a breach of respect. The King WILL hear of this lapse, which is not one I would have expected from one ranked as you are." She sighed, mewling softly to the wolf-turned boy, and nodded her head for him to be going, that she or the drake wouldn't stop him. [16:11] Audfrith whispers: Audfrith nodded to the Thane and worried that she had spooked the girl.  She turned, no longer fearful for their safety. [16:11] Audfrith: ((did not mean to whisper that -- but I think everyone is in range anyway - [16:11] Audfrith whispers: Audfrith nodded to the Thane and worried that she had spooked the girl.  She turned, no longer fearful for their safety.)) [16:11] Door: emmiedee Resident is at the door. [16:13] Audfrith: ((kk guys, thanks for the good rp!  I have to go to bed, it's after 1 in germany.  See you all soon.  :)))
