Jonacin called over to the barkeeper "Barkeep! More Matze, if you please"

Celia heard the loud thump and shouts coming from behind her. It sounded like Konrad, but she ran towards the shouts to be sure and perhaps to help. When she got to the source, she gasped. "Oh, Konrad! What have you done?"

She rushed to the wounded Imperial teenager and immediately readied her hands for healing. Glowing white light and sparkles emitted from her hands, spinning faster in order to speed up the healing process. However, this was a delicate matter, and Celia had to concentrate quite a bit.

Finally, after much concentration, Celia had fixed most of the wound. "Okay now, no more of whatever you just did, m'kay?" She glanced up at the horse. "Hey! What are you doing with my horse?" She sighed. "Never mind," she said as she stood up and dusted herself.

She continued walking towards the city, rubbing her shoulders, which were getting sore. "At this rate, we'll never get to Cyrodiil..."

Serene started chanting an old Dunmeri song.....the strange words got Jonacn to stare at her.....she knew this would startle him so she thought she had to explain:

"I grew up among the Ashlanders , at the Ahemmussa tribe she said slowly....they taught me all I know, but don´t tell Jonacin, I might be banned by the other imperials....

The strange but beautiful tone made the barkeep hesitate for a moment as he brought theis mazte...

Shakur heard the screaming. "In the name of Tava what is screaming?" He turned around and ran.

OOC: ignore this post...got behind

OOC: I think you mean Falx lol

"Really? I managed to earn the trust of the Urshilaku during the years i spent on Vvardenfell, and they made me a member of their tribe. They really are a fascinating people".
But you're right, i don't think we should let Falx know.

OOC: By everybody, I gotta go now

OOC. yes sorry....of course i meant falx!

" You too! then you´ll understand! Ypu know Sinnamu Mirpal was my foster-mother she taught me all i know.


Then they started eating and as they were very hungry they sat silent for a while just enjoying the food..

"Ahh this was exactly what I needed" said Serene, leaning back in the chair with quite a ridiculous smile in her face

Jonacin couldn't help but laugh at the look on Seren's face when she finished her food. "I take it you enjoyed that" he said, grinning

Oh Aye...she replied....I feel very much fortified now.....should we try to find the others? or shall we ask for a room here?..to rest and...

"I suppose we may as well get a room, the others aren't going to find us if we go wandering about looking for them" said Jonacin

(OOC: If you don't mind, Dantrag...? :ashamed: )
Celia was very much happy to be on her way to find Serene. And not to mention, Sel was going with them after all... And no demons... So, she felt very much satisfied about the whole day's events. She skipped towards the outskirts of the city and as she got close to the city, she shouted, smiling, "Serene! Jona! Mister Nord! Where are you?"

Ok you´re right" Serene said with a happy smile, the thought of renting a room and be able to rest together with Jonacin appealed to her...she found the tall Redguard very attractive, especially after having her basic needs satisfied. Besides he really had been a perfect gentleman and she was not used to be so well treated..not by men anyfway...

Konrad grabbed onto Celia's horse, for she had not started to ride it but walk back, and galloped back to Cyrodiil, charging past Celia. With a wave of his hand he had vanished into the now darkening forest. At the thrilling speeds he was pleased his arm was in working condition and he soon got back to the city. He leapt off the horse and roll across the grass, but looking back he saw the horse lying on the floor. Checking, he confirmed the death of the beast. Feeling his stomach rumble he walked to the nearest inn, now with a few drunkards outside the door.

Looking in through the window, he saw Jonacin and Serene laughing around with each other and decided to go to the inn further down the street.

(OOC: How in the world did you kill her horse? Do you want a certain female Altmer angry at you? :confused: )

"Hey!" Celia shouted as Konrad rushed by her on her horse. "How rude! Go easy on that horse or else!" She walked towards the city, calling out once again, "Jona, Serene, where are you, sillies?"

[quote=MerGirl](OOC: If you don't mind, Dantrag...? :ashamed: )[/quote]

OOC: If I don't mind what?

"They've probably found much better accomadations than we have." Sel said to Celia, after she was done calling for their missing companions. "And about the horse, I wouldn't worry too much about it." Sel added.

OOC: I tired it to death.

Konrad ordered two pints of ale from the barkeep and even though he looked at him suspiciously, he handed over the drinks anyway. Going outside Konrad sat down next to the dead horse, wondering what to do next. After ten minutes thought, he threw the mugs of ale onto the horse then set it alight. Flames were calming... and he felt warm now.

Besides he really had been a perfect gentleman and she was not used to be so well treated..not by men anyfway...[/quote]Jonacin called over to the Barkeeper. "Barkeep! Have you got any free rooms?". When the barkeeper said he did, Jonacin paid for a room for the night, and then went to get Serene. "We have a room for the night. I'm going up now to get some rest" he said to her. He went up to the room, and began taking his armour off. He was so used to wearing it by now, he had nearly forgotten about it.

Serene followed Jonacin up to the rented room. There was one bed in it, a bit broader that usual beds but not especially big....

She watched Jonacin take off his armour, oh he had a beautiful body that redguard, Serene enjoyed looking at a man again, it had been too long since she´d had that opportunity...

She took off her cloak and let it fall to the ground......then she asked Jonacin if he would volunteer to help her with the buttons on the back of her dress.....

"Sure thing,here you go" said Jonacin, undoing the buttons

OOC: I repeat...if I don't mind what?

Sel thought for a second. "I remember seeing an inn while we were escorting the refugees...I think I would have gone there too." he said. "I'm hungry. Comberries don't do it for very long."

Serene closed her eyes....the gentle touch of Jonacin´s hands when unbuttoning her dress made her feel good......

When being in her underwear she looked for a possibility to wash herself....oh there was a bucket in the corner, with fresh water, and also a piece of sload-soap.
Serene was very pleased, as she really appreciate cleanness..

"Jonacin, look" she said, " We can wash ourselves" She immediately went to the bucket and let a handful of fresh water splash in her face

(OOC: Dantrag, I wasn't sure whether or not I could post or not, since you left up 'posting' for a long time... I thought you would be back after awhile...)

Celia stopped. "Hey, you're right! We should check out the inns..." She smiled at Sel. "Just don't drink too much, or I may have to keep you in check by force." She giggled and ran ahead to the inn, dragging Sel by the hand.

Sel decided to play along.

"The force of my insanity will overcome any force you can muster!" he said with a laugh. "Besides, I never get drunk."

Celia stuck out her tongue. "Yeah, right! I'll bet you're more likely to get drunk than anyone in our entire group!" She walked to the door of the inn and cracked it open. "Hello! Is this inn still open?"

"Ahhhh wonderful" Serene enjoyed being scrubbed on her back......shall i scrub your back?" she asked in a low voice

The innkeeper came outside.

"Yes, we are open, but I'm afraid we don't have any rooms left."

Sel nodded. "Can we still order food?" Sel asked, then quickly added, "And drinks?"

The innkeeper smiled. "Come on in."

As they walked in, Sel looked over to Celia. "You realize we left Shakur, Arco, and Knight way back there, right? Oh, well. I guess they'll come along shortly."

He waved to the bartender. "Matze, please - if you have any dunmeri drinks. If not, I'll have a flin...Oh, and some kwama eggs please."

[quote=minque]"Ahhhh wonderful" Serene enjoyed being scrubbed on her back......shall i scrub your back?" she asked in a low voice[/quote]
"That would be great. The scars make it awkward though" said Jonacin.
(Jonacin's upper body is covered in scars, mostly on his front as he always faces his enemies, but some many on his back from attacks from behind)

"Oh Jonacin" Serene said , "I´ll try to make it more bearable to you"

She took out some green plants from the pouch she always wore hanging under her shirt, also some scrib-jelly with which she mixed the plants to a thick good-smelling green paste....

"You had those for dinner a while ago" she said "now I´ll rub them on your skin and we´ll se if that doesn´t do the trick"

It was a healing paste made from marshmerrow, hackle-lo and heather originally but this time Serene had to settle with marshmerrow.

She rubbed the paste gently on Jonacins back....... as she was chanting an ancient Dunmeri song...

Celia glared playfully at Sel. "Drinking, huh? If you get drunk, you owe me a few gold pieces!"

She turned to the barkeeper. "None for me, of course. Perhaps some bread and water?" She asked the barkeeper when he came back with their meals, "Hey, have you seen a Redguard and an Imperial woman come by here, together? They're companions of ours and we're searching for them..."

The barkeeper raised an eyebrow. "Yes, indeed I did... They're using a room right now, so I'd rather you not disturb them."

Celia herself raised an eyebrow. "What would I disturb?" Ignoring the man's protests, she ran up the steps towards the bedrooms...

Ignore this post.

Jonacin sighed as the marshmerrow paste soothed the scars criss-crossing his back. "Thanks Serene. My back hasn't felt that good in years" he said to Serene

After the rubbing-in she wrapped a thin soft piece of cloth around his ody and then led him towards the bed..

"Lie down now my love she said......

The room was rather chilly so she laid down beside him to keep the warmth.....

Shakur finally entered the Inn and gladly took a seat. "I'll have your most expensive meat and your largest, tastiest and most alchoholic drink". A bottle of high priced vintage brandy and some great smelling meat was ploped infront of him. Shakur drew out his large wallet, full of dwemer coins and gold he had collected while in Morrowind. "Do you accept heaping amounts of cash?" Shakur said jokingly.

Joncain was surprised when Serene called him "My love", but he soon realised that he liked it. He put his arm around her shoulders and drew her close to him when she lay down beside him

So they lay down beside each other ........and as far as Serene thought it was the finest thing that had happened to her in a long time




She closed her eyes and drifted off.....into a deep dreamless sleep

Jonacin lay awake for some time after Serene fell asleep, just listening to her breathing. Eventually he drifted off to sleep as well.

OOC: shall we leave them there for the night? I tink I have to quit now, it´s late and I must work tomorrow....

OOC: Yeah sure

Shakur drank three glasses of the brandy. "Wow, a buzz! That's the first one in like twelve years". Shakur finished his meat. "You know, after being on the road for so long, eating all kinds of things, I would've paid a thousand gold to eat crab meat, but after eating that meat, I'm in a state of nirvana" joked Shakur.

OOC: I'm going now, I might be on later.

Sel ran up the steps after Celia and grabbed her, turning her around to facee him.

"And what are you doing?" he asked her. "They rented a room. And you can't tell me you haven't noticed the looks they've been giving each other while we've travelled. So just sit right back down and leave them be." Sel said. "Come on, you know you want more than bread and water." he teased.

Shakur looked at Sel and Celia. "Celia, you don't want to go in there. Sel, stop pushing alchohol" said Shakur, sounding almost father-like.
"Everybody has someone hoping they live through these hellish events. Suprisingly, I'm part of that group". Shakur was starting to lighten up, getting ready to tell stories of his life.

"What? I'm not pushing alchohol! It's a friendly joke." Sel protested. "So sit, Celia, and have a sip." He said while handing her the bottle of matze. "Just leave some for me."

"Hmm, are you sure you don't want to take a few bottles and stand on the sidewalk for a while?" Shakur said jokingly. "Or how about some skooma?".

"Stop acting like an old person and have a little fun." Sel joked back.

Celia giggled. "Aw, but I want to ruin their fun..." She smiled, but pushed away the bottle of matze, quietly refusing it. "I survived long enough without that in my entire life."

She smiled and turned to Shakur. "Hey, got any stories, interesting experiences in your life? I'm bored, and I'm itching to stumble into the bedrooms upstairs..." She giggled again and sipped her water.

Falx let the others go on ahead to do what they wished, after all, how can they rest when there are still refugees left, and how in the world is that bar opened?

He let all the confusing and contridicting thoughts flow out of his mind. His horse was trailing it's master, Falx thought to himself, "Ha, so far your the last of my friends, closer then any family I can remeber, and the last one I'd want to loose"

Falx turned and looked at Akatosh, "One day, me and you will go someplace far away and see many different spectacles. One day..." Falx was slowly aging. At the age of 5 he was sent to the Imperial Academy of Greater Learning, the best in the lands, and for 13 years he trained, and he trained, for his emperor. After his succesful graduation Falx went on campains with many great generals, after all, it was only years after the unkown hero closed shut the gates of oblivion. At least 16 years later, he had been fighting still, rare in many cases. Falx's body was still strong, but his mind was told him to quit.

"Lets go buddy" He rubbed the horse's mane.

Sel was serious when he said he wasn't going to get drunk. He put down what was left of the matze and turned to face Celia.

"Itching to get into other peoples' business?" Sel asked in a mock-accusatory tone. "I never would have guessed that you were the nosy type."

Sel then changed the subject. "I do agree with you on one thing Celia - A nice tale would be good right now." he said turning to face Shakur.

"Oh, blah! I'm not nosy! I'm just... curious, m'kay..." She giggled and glanced at the matze. "You're not going drunk? You little... Trying to sneak out of a bet!" She stuck out her tongue at Sel, then turned to the Redguard. "Tell us a story, mister Redguard! Pweeese?"
