Ardocc was fine for the moment, and that meant that Torin's job was done. Ardocc would feel a little bit dizzy in the morning, but he would be alright. Torin stood up and went to inspect the Urgals. He found all his knives, about 20 of them, wiped them dry, and sheathed all of them. This process took about 20 minutes. Torin also, while checking the Urgals, found a decent amount of money. He would split it up around the group. But now he decided to go to sleep. and he did just that.

Little sister? So, the man loved someone after all. She wondered why she wasn't with him now. Nola wanted to press into it more but she promised a game and a game she would give.
So What do you wish to play Surbus?Once the spirit slowed again she gave a small smile and scratched it behind its ear again. To the others it would look as if she was just playing with the young thing. Nothing out of the ordinary could be seen.

Surbus purred as she scratched behind his ears. I like to play games of riddles though I never good at them. But maybe we can play hide and go seek or prehaps a stareing contest! Wait, I would when that one, but maybe we can play a game of tag! Tag! Thats it! He moved away from her and pranced around Torin's feet, thinking in her head, Come and get me. Get me, get me! Tag me, tag me! Then he stuck his tongue out playfully, which was forked like a snake.

Nola now knew this was not going to be easy. She was not going to go near Torin's feet to catch Surbus. Who knew what those things smelled like. Giving a small smile at the creature she thought of a plan.
Looking back from Zark and Surbus she gave a small nod. She poked Zark playfully and gave a small shrug goign for Surbus now. Ill get you alright!

Surbus could see her poke Zark and chuckled in her head, He isn't going to be happy with you when he wakes up. Then he dashed from his feet and ran between her legs, manuvering so that he wouldn't be stepped on. Then he was behind her, Come on! Run faster! The game has only begun! Then he turned quickly to the right. He caught site of a mouse, crawlign away, drawing his attention from the game. Ooohhhhh... A mouse! Then he croached closer to the mouse.
OOC: Wow... I thought some of the others would post by now.

Nola took her chance when his focus was on the mouse and swooped him in her arms.Got ya! She thought with glee. If he ever wakes up more like it. I have seen old men who wake up sooner from unconscious then him. Also...Is he ever happy?
From what she knew of him and seen he was a distant cold person. Of course she hadn't known him long but that was her first thought of Zark.
OCC: Ya I thought so too..Maybe they have just been really busy? I dont know.

Surbus felt himself get scooped up and chuckled in her head. Oh noes! Now the mouse is gone aswell. His purring was constant. Then he replied simply to her, Most old men don't blast a cone of green fire yes? If he didn't use up his spirits he would be dead you know. Master is smart one. Then he stopped purring and looked at her with his purple eyes. Master not happy anymore, not after he gave up sister and learned from his master about spirits. Now he is seeking his path that he feels is set down for him. But he won't reach his goal I hope. Would break her heart. Yes it would. He seemed somewhat sad of the mention of his master being unhappy and accomplishing his goal. Master used to be happy and joyful. Played in streets, made many friends, and had lovign sister. I can still see his memories, they are good ones, make me feel warm.
OOC: Thought so but wanted to get a second oppinoin.

Nola could not see this side of Zark but she had to give him a chance. Even he had to be happy once in awhile be his past or present. Her petting of him did not stop. Surbus was just so cute now and he was just like a adorable kitten.
What is his goal then? She thought she had a idea of what he wanted. Nola hoped it wasn't so.
OCC: Oh o.o

Surbus simply made a little move that looked like a shrug. That is for master to give, not for you. If you want to know about it you may want to know him better. No doubt after discovering that you know magic he will try and know what you know. He yawned a bit, seeming to grow sleepy. Master might even... give you lessons. Hope you... stay. Your fun... to play... with... He paused once in a while, looking really sleepy. Then finally he snoozed off to sleep after he said what he wanted to say.
OOC: Ohhh, well I don't mind if you guys had intervened. Would have been really neat to see your reactions with the cat and all that and that I could have done a little bit more stuff. Its cool.

Post by Dwandir - Dondir on Dec 22, 2006 17:00:48 GMT -5
At this moment, Dondir walked up and placed a hand on Nola's shoulder, eying the creature in awe and suspicion. "It is time to eat young one." he said. For he had been cooking while his brother was out killing half dead urgals. He poured a ladle of hot soup into a bowl he had brought. He had 5 silver bowls that he brought on his pony, the dwarves are always prepared. Especially when It comes to food. Then he offered it to her.
Dwandir was out chopping the necks of any breathing urgals, he paid special attention in teh search for the knife that had saved him, and doomed Ardocc's day. He eventually found it, covered in dirt from the weight of the urgal upon it in the soft ground. He wiped it clean and marveled in it. He grabbed the sheath and tied it to his belt. He hoped to his gods that Ardocc would be alright, it was Dwandir's fault.
OOC: Yeah, it was hard to intervene whilst you guys were in such a deep conversation, its alright though.

A small laugh came from her throat as Surbus took a little nap in her arms. The little thing sure was fun to talk to and he gave her much useful information. Nola had now no idea what she planned to do. Staying here would certainly be interesting and a good story to tell but her heart was on finishing her travels.
After placing Surbus near Zark to not disturb his rest she was touched by Dondir. Nola was certainly not liking be called young one but Dondir was kind and she gave a small smile as he offered her some soup. Thankfully no one had asked her to cook. Poisoning the young men with her cooking was not on her list. "Thank you Dondir. I have certainly never met a dwarf or any man that is that cooks."

Zark began to stir finally, his head a massive head ache, and he didn't feel to good. He felt his pocket and noticed that Surbus was gone. With a jolt he bolt off the ground and then went back to the camp fire. He looked around and then finally noticed that he was in Narkari's arms. His anger began to flare even more but he was so weak that he couldn't stand for long. Zark sat down by the fire and said, "I see you've met Surbus. Do you have a familiar as well?

OCC: Its Nola not Narkari.  Amusement could show in her eyes as she watched Zark's anger grow. "Surbus certainly is a nice little thing. Too bad the pet is nothing like the master..."She could not help but give a small smirk."Also, If you mean as a pet similar to him....then no I do not."Nola continued as she sat petting Surbus gently on the head as he slept. Nola knew this chat would be interesting. |

Zark was starting to get angry. This girl thought she was all that. "Well, aren't you eager to embarress me. Fortunately, I do not have his naivity. And your lucky that I am too weak to show him off when he is actuelly useful." He said this coldly. He glared at the dwarf and said, "Well? Some soup would be nice."
OOC: Whoops! I am messed up by alot of things.

OCC: Yes you did. Oh well. ^^
"Sometimes being a bit naive is a good thing." She was not surprised he was growing more angry. Nola had a skill to make men so."I also believe their is no such thing as luck. For all you know I could be a much more advanced magic user then yourself....."She said using her fingers to play with her hair some. Unlike Zark her voice and face was perfectly calm. It almost seem she was having fun.

Dondir did not like Zark's tone. "I'll give ya' soup, you ungrateful shadow of a man. You all could learn a thing or two." He said directed towards the whole party. "Dwandir and I are both over 50, which is young for dwarfs, but still older than you all." Even in his slightly angered mood he ladled out some soup in a bowl for Zark.
Dwandir returned then and grabbed a bowl, and they sat there in silence. Until Dwandir addressed Zark, "Your a good asset to your friends, thank you." He clearly had missed the whole conversation. At least someone was on Zark's side though.

After she said that Zark looked over the facts of what he could learn and what he did know. "Apparently, if your such a great magic user you are extremely weak. You stopped one arrow and could barely stand afterward. While I sent a great cone of fire that enflamed the urgals. And I wouldn't need to use magic to beat you. Surbus could do it quite well on his own." Then he turned to Dondir and replied, "Why thank you for the compliment of me being a shadow of a man. I try." After that he didn't expect Dwandir to give him a compliment. "Thank you Dwandir."

Dwandir looked at his brother with surprise, "Why would you insult him, you numskull, he saved us all and nearly killed himself." He didn't like it when people had to rescue him, but now he respected Zark. He noticed how everyone didn't take kindly to Zark, but Dwandir did.
Dondir didn't like Zark's snappy attitude, but he didn't disrespect someone his brother respected. Out loud at least. So he finished his meal and went walking with his pony. Talking to it for some reason.

The smile on Nola's face did not fade from Zark's attempt to make a comeback. "Did you ever think, for one second, that I could have been acting? That I been waiting for you or even so notice that after-wards I was fine as if nothing had happened?" She asked finishing her soup. Nola had a small urge to tell him the things she learned but would keep it to herself for now.
Standing up and pushing some hair from her face she looked at the two. "I think I will fancy a small walk...Good Day."She scratched Surbus behind the ear one last time and gave him to Zark. Her mind could not fathom the cute thing harming anyone.
Nola had a plan for this walk. She would train her magic. Before this, she had wanted little to do with it but it was useful and it be best she learned more. With that she walked away from them until she was some yards away from them. Nola wondered if anyone would follow her.
