Niallus Saberhagen
Nox Arcanum
With Nox Arcanum festivities in full effect, children dressed as monsters scaring each other while laughing. The five moons high in the sky, it clearly was a lovely night. Ingrid and Niallus planned to spend some time together. She had cooked a meal for both of them, then after they planned to enjoy the festival together. Walking to hers he saw Sven and Esmii together, they seemed to be enjoying themselves. That's good.
Hearing a distant scream caused Niallus to stop, at first he thought he was just his imagination, then he heard it again. Looking around, it seems that everyone else around him couldn't hear it. No surprise, this is a festival after all. Wanting to investigate, Niallus moves his way through the busy crowd. A rough guess of where the noise came from. He may have to apologise to Ingrid, for being a little late.
Seems Niallus wasn't the only one that heard the noise. Others arrived, or were already there. Two faces Niallus recognised, Ayla and Desmond. Kaspar, he only heard from Ingrid, since they were planning to open up a hotdog business together. The others were a mystery, A man in a Royal Frobas mask, a Nun and a Knight. He would eventually get their names after. But right now, it seems they have bigger problems. The source of the noises was in fact a dragon.
We managed to stun and topple the dragon. But we couldn't come to an agreement to finish it. Ayla was convinced that this dragon was Zarina. Due to this confusion, the dragon managed to recover and the fight happened again. Niallus managed to help Desmond. As well as helping Kasper however Niallus suffered a minor injury.
During the fight. Ayla managed to summon a demon somehow. It was a demonic egg. The yolk even had an odd shape to it, almost like it had a face. However the fight continued on, but we had the egg demon helping us fight. Even with the egg helping us, since the Nun who eventually gave her name as Sister Laska. While the man behind the Frobas mask revealed himself as King Sancho. This night was full of surprises.
The dragon started to get frustrated so it drew an enormous amount of energy sucked in by this monster. It was astonishing, all the members of the group were all concerned about what was coming next and it wasn't going to come next. Light started to build up in the beast's mouth, it was preparing a breath attack.
Then it fired its breath attack, starting at its feet, it was immensely concentrated, and the stream progressed into what looked like flames, just stand there everyone could feel the heat emitting from this attack. By merely raising its head, the beam sliced vertically like a hot knife through butter. The dragon couldn't even truly control it as its head started to go in different directions. The group was trying to evade as best they could, just enough to survive. However if some of the walls of the structure were destroyed then people would be killed outside. So, the group stood ready to defend, to contain the attack from getting out.
The others managed to defend themselves and the wall. Niallus took quite a bit of damage from it, but he protected the wall from only being destroyed. He couldn't risk taking another hit like that, but when the egg was about to be killed by the dragon, Niallus bravely defended it. This point he had nothing left in him. But somehow the egg managed to ascend to godhood. As the egg built up a huge amount of magic and obliterated the dragon. With its immense power, the god egg managed to produce a very slimy and very naked Zarina. Before it disappeared completely it left three small black eggs. Niallus got one of the eggs, it could be useful in the future.
With the dragon defeated, a naked Zarina was confused thinking that this whole thing is just a dream. Kaspar went round healing everyone who was injured while some others tried to get rid of some of the leftover radiation from the dragon's remains, there were a few things that could be looted. Niallus took A Primordial Egg, which was from the Egg Demon god thing. Fuming Obsidian Thick residue, but luckily his friend Desmond offered to borrow Niallus a glowvein chest to safely store the radioactive material until he found a use for it. With that being said Niallus finally remembered that he was definitely late for his dinner date with Ingrid. Before he left, he asked Desmond if he could drop the chest and the residue off at his dorm in the morning as he was running late for something. Desmond didn't ask questions, he just gave him a thumbs up.
By the time he got to Ingrid's door it was the early hours of Shune. He wondered if she was even still awake at this point. Knocking on the door, it opened. Ingrid saw that he turned up, she greeted him with a kiss, she has been worried about where he has been since he's a few hours late. She holds his hand as she walks him inside. Something was wrong, something icky so she let go. She had a mixture of grime and blood on her fingers. Looking back to him, she realised it wasn't a costume and her concern came through as she asked what the hell happened to him.
Niallus was just glad to see her, giving her a hug. Apologising for making her worry. He asked if he could get cleaned up here and get changed into some of the clothes that he has left here. Then he'll tell her what happened. She grabs a washing basin for him so he could clean himself up. He gives her a kiss. Hopefully they'll still be time to go out together to celebrate Nox Arcanum together, if not, at least they have each other.
Niallus and Maura
Location:. Outside the Auction house.
Big thank you @Ti for this little banter.
The auction had not long come to a close, all the young participants were collecting the items that they bid on in exchange for their hard-earned magi. Niallus managed to get two items. As Niallus looks around, it seems the other members of his team have already left the auction house, no doubt to celebrate on how well they did finish second. "Guess those guys couldn't wait, so impatient. After all, it was well-earned" As more people that won prizes left the building, a familiar face with a wheelchair came out. It was Maura. He shouts her name to get her attention, followed by a polite wave to her.
Maura was caught by surprise as Niallus called out after her, and after making her excuses with the others, she made a moment to be with him as she rolled across and approached. “Here we are, simultaneously the richest and poorest in my life on the same day.” as she gave him a playful smile as she showcased the events of the day. The side of her mouth raised into a slight smirk, “Been getting some very dark looks from your girlfriend, she is not happy. Let her know it is not personal, only business. She cannot walk out with the entire auction, after all”. She adopted a warmer smile as she held out her hand towards him, “Congratulations on coming second”
Niallus gives a little chuckle from Maura's little joke. "Such is life, you make money, then you lose it." he accepts her hand that she put out towards him, giving it a little shake. "Yeah, we did really well. We were practically the underdogs throughout the entire competition. We're really close to winning, too." A little bit of a competitive tone came out. Then Niallus tilts his head based on what Maura said before, "Girlfriend? What Girlfriend?" with a confused look on his face, wondering what Maura was talking about.
She smiled rather mischievously at the comment, “We misunderstood those puppy-dog eyes of yours, ignore it.” waved her hand dismissively as she returned to the previous comment. “People weren’t expecting a second-rate team to win, so they were too eager to dismiss us as we took advantage of their ignorance. Too busy targeting Jocasta rather than… her second rate stand-in” a previous reference to a heated barbed comment the Eskand boy made. “Either way, we have everyone's attention and focus. What are your plans now?”
Feeling like he missed whatever she was talking about, he just shrugged his shoulders. He nods in agreement with what she was saying. Even when she stopped talking because she seemed to sound competitive. He gives her a soft smile. He thought Maura was a person who did it by the book sort of girl. "You're right, because of this we are going to have huge targets on our backs. We'll need to be vigilant, so we don't get blind sided by someone. He gives it a little thought about what she said about him having plans? "I…I honestly have no idea what to do, I guess I'll head back home. My Grandfather wants to train me some more, but he didn't say what." looking at her, '' What about yourself? Do you have any ideas of what you want to do?" He was a little curious about what her answer would be?
“So your old man wants to pass on his wisdom? You should listen closely and pay your respects. You will regret it if you don’t.” she brushed a hand through her hair as she released a soft sigh, then putting on a braver smile “Sometimes you don’t know what you have until you lose it”. Maura imagined that his old-man may have been feeling the burden of his years upon him, and felt pressured to part with his wisdom. A rather warm image, though such actions could become oppressing without context.
She pondered for a moment as she considered her plans, “My road leads me to Callanst, most likely. Got to set up a bunch of stuff with these new territories. Trying to decide if we should go on two separate journeys or attempt to circumvent the world”. She ponders a moment, given the timings of the semester break, such a feat is most unlikely to occur. “A girl can dream, right?” she offered him a bright smile. Callanst is the future, a continent rich in opportunities ready to be exploited, and she is going to make it her goal to be one of the first major players there, and with Gaskum and Longwan, she has footholds on either side of the continent, she is in prime position to reap the rewards.
Niallus nods in agreement to her statement, with a smile "Dreams are a good thing, sometimes they can help us push forward. I'm sure you'll be able to achieve it. After all, you've proven that you can determine if you put your mind to it." he was unsure if his advice would be helpful. "But back to your other thing you said, about my Grandfather." his voice becomes sincere. “Honestly, I owe everything to my Grandfather. While my parents were away, he was the one who helped me control my magic. Without the proper training, my magic is extremely dangerous to others around me.” looking back at her, curious about what she meant about the statement about not getting another chance. “Did you get to know your Grandparents?”
Maura simply smiled in a warm and playful manner, “This one dreams big, so you better watch out, Niallus!” finishing in a faux menacing giggle with her hand over her mouth in a coy manner. “It is refreshing to see someone have such faith in my abilities. Usually have to spend my time attempting to convincing people that we are not a frail wallflower that should be seen but not heard, and the other half who thinks this one should not been seen at all.”
At his question, she simply swirled a few strands of her hair, “Let’s say ‘It's complicated’ for my situation. My mother died during childbirth and her parents blamed me. My grandmother on my father’s side was amazing, but she died of the cangrejo disease when we were only five. However, Tío y Tía, Uncle Juan and my Aunty Bella were big on family and played a big part. He died of the cangrejo disease when papá and myself were on the Horseshoe. We had an argument before we left, a silly one, there wasn’t an opportunity to make amends. Tía reassured me that he forgave and forgot long ago.”
That statement she made about dreaming big, seems like she has big goals. “That's good then. Hopefully you'll be able to achieve them.” the only thing that made him curious, was that giggle of hers.
She wasn't kidding about it being complicated. Niallus kinda felt bad asking her about her family. “I'm sorry, If you didn't feel comfortable, you didn't have to tell me. It mustn't have been easy for you to discuss family matters like that to more or less a stranger.” smiling at her. He wasn't going to say that he understood how she felt, when he clearly didn't. He barely had family as it was. "Anything else you want to talk about? Or do?” sitting down on a nearby seat.
Maura tucked the strands of her hair back behind her ear as she tilted her head to the side as she offered him a soft smile, “It is the custom in Varrahasta that if you ask a girl for their time, you reward them with a sweet treat at a food vendor.” she blushed as she dropped the hint. “Zenobucks should be nearby. We heard from a friend that they are starting to sell Macarons now.” She shifts in her chair as she sets it in motion, starting to slowly move away. “Are you coming~?”
Not wanting to be left behind, he gets up to catch up with Maura. “Sure, a Zenobucks sounds good.” Walking with Maura. “Thanks for that insight, Maura. However, we aren't in Varrahasta. If we were, I might have, but we aren't.” with a slight snark tone complete with a mischievous grin.
She raised an eyebrow at the comment, “We sometimes forget you are a barbarian from a backwards land who communicate via grunts and clubs.” closing one eye as she peered up with the other, her own mischievous grin is wider. “That can be corrected, naturally. First thing when out with a girl is that you escort her by taking her arm, though circumstances permitting, a hand shall do.” she raises a hand towards Niallus to take. “If it starts to rain, you carry the umbrella for the both of us, and the priority is to prevent it falling on me.”
Niallus shakes his head with a smile from Maura's explanation and her remarks on what he should do, as well as Eskand culture. Playing along, he takes her hand. “But milady, how would I be able to carry my club if I'm holding your hand.” with a smirk on his face. “But I'm so glad that you used small words, so my backwards brain can understand. If not, you might have had to use grunts for me to understand.” trying his hardest to not burst out laughing. It seems he's starting to get along with Maura, even though to some people it doesn't look like it. She has a sarcastic charm to her that he respects.
She simply smiles sweetly, “That is permissible. You shall leave it at your cave whilst we work upon your etiquette and your pronunciation. You may order an ‘Ayla’, a coffee with milk and honey, and a Macaroon. Likewise, you then may order something you desire, then pay the friendly vendor with a polite thank you.” She squeezed upon his fingers as they start to approach the vendor. “Time to put this into practice.” as she turned to flutter her eyelashes towards him in an encouraging manner.
Feeling her squeezing his fingers, she's really getting into this, or she could be nervous, it's hard to tell. Listening to her "instructions" on how to order something appropriately, the fluttering eyelashes were a bit much. Approaching the vendor, Maura's grip on his hand more tightly, then softer. He clears his throat “Good evening, Can I order two 'Ayla' coffee's with honey and milk, and two portions of macarons please.” the vendor nods, instructing them that it'll take a while for his order to be made. So they offer Niallus and Maura a table while they wait. “Did that meet your standards?” he said to Maura with a smile. He also wondered how long she was going to hold his hand, if it's any longer, this will feel more like a date.
“You know, it will be difficult to eat with one hand, you are free to let go.” she smirked toward him as she teased, not releasing a hold upon his hand as she drank from the coffee cup then placed it upon the table as she helped herself to a delicious looking pink macaroon with her free hand. “What are your plans after the academy? Plan to return home, stay and become a Tan-Zeno, or put down some roots elsewhere?”
“That's fair.” at first, it seemed that Maura didn't want to let go of his hand, he eventually did. Taking a quick sip of his coffee, then takes a bite out of a macaroon. He wonders about what he'd do after the academy. “I'm not really sure what I want to do after the academy. I mean, I thought about being the head of my family. There are a few things I want, however it'll mostly come down to if I can survive. I might settle down, no idea who I'd settle down with.” he takes another sip of his coffee. “what about you, what are your goals after the academy. Are you going back home to settle down with someone?”
Maura simply puts on a sweet smile as Niallus let go of her hand, and distracts herself by savouring her macarons, which were definitely the visit by themselves. The answer to the question was a simple one, “We are going to create what will be a successful trading company with a ship in every port, amigo. Then you would never get away from my influence.” she adopted a faux-menacing tone as she finished off the treat playfully. Easily softening as within a moment, “gracias, this was a nice relaxing distraction.”
He smiles at her. “de nada, I'm glad that this was able to help you.” he takes a bite of a macaroon. Thinking about what she mentioned, he was intrigued by her new trading company. “Oh, your family is starting a new trading company, with a ship in every dock. That's cool. Can I ask what your family sells?” taking another sip from his coffee. If this deal does go through for these ships. There'll definitely be no escape from her family's influence.
She raised an eyebrow at the reply in her surprise, “¿Hablas Torragònese?” She moved on to address his question. “If by family, you mean me, si. Need to protect my Callansti interests, and Ersand’Enise does offer some very favourable rates. Will take time, but that is my goal, using my ships to bring the world together, where we can freely trade and share many pleasures which would simply be unattainable” after her speech, she placed the empty plate and cup upon the table, “As for the family business, they provide transport along the Horseshoe trading route, primarily shipping Terracotta, Cattle, Spices, and Horses from Torragon and returning with goods from around the twin-continents.”
Maura pushes herself away from the table and twists the chair toward Niallus. “However, it is growing late. So it is time for a lady to depart. See you again in our Zeno class, we have a busy year ahead of us.” offered her hand out towards Niallus as she bids him goodbye.
Looking at the time on his pocket watch, she was right, it was rather late. He grabs what's left of his macaroon.“Maura, wait.” getting up to follow her. “If you are wanting to go, please allow this backwards barbarian to escort you back to your dorm as a thank you for your time.” he says with a warm smile, with a little bow. Then he offered to take her hand again.
She smiled warmly as Niallus was being a gentleman towards her, “For a barbarian, you are not so bad. Just don’t forget your club, how else can you communicate with the others of your kind without it.” she winked towards him in an obvious tease, and allowed him to escort her back.
Location:Ersand'Enise. Niallus's dorm room.
The night after the auction, the trails had finally come to a close. Niallus had a lot of fun and effort, his team came second, so that's something at least. Niallus woke up, finding his head held up by one of his hands, his whole body leaning into one side of his seat. A candle on his desk, partly lights up the room with a cool warm glow. There was no sound from the whole room, which was refreshing.
[color=3d5a88]"I wonder when I fell asleep,"and looking around the room, trying to gather his senses. Satisfied he stands up, feeling a little stiff, so he stretches. Once done he looks over to his desk. On it are the item's that he bought from the auction. The Ancient Great Neskal, "The Mother '' iteration and a Schluckodil egg. Niallus lets out a heavy sigh,
"I wish I managed to get that ticket to the La Vita Rossa. It would have made a great wedding gift for my friend. Then again," looking at the Schluckodil egg, ''from what my mother said, Ragnar's wife loves Schluckodils. Plus it'll give them practice for when they decide to have children."He smirks from that, if Ragnar heard him say that remark, he'd probably pay for it. Even if it was true. Looking down he must have been reading something since there is a book on the floor next to the chair he was asleep in. He picks it up and places it onto the desk. Feeling an itch in his throat he grabs a little drink.
Stood looking out the window, the moon high up in the sky, half cast by shadow. "I've had a lot of fun during this week." Taking a sip, "I've enjoyed my time with team Secto. Although we were surprised that Leander was actually Fiske. We had our fun moments, especially stealing that stagecoach for the Thin air eve-." his face went a bit grim, remembering that he owes someone a new stagecoach, since it was his idea, and it completely fell apart after the event. "Terrific, I completely forgot about that…" shrugging his shoulders and taking another sip from his cup.
He changes the subject by trying to remember what he was dreaming about when he fell asleep, he couldn't come close to remembering what he was dreaming about. letting out a disappointing sigh, Niallus finished off his drink, "When I get back home, I'll have to pay a visit to Ragnar, congratulate him in person. Can give him that egg too." He places the empty cup onto the desk, he slumps back into his chair. He wonders what the future will hold for him at Ersand'Enise. Just thinking about it makes him smile with anticipation. Picking up the book that he placed on his desk once more "Tales of Sipenta: The Laughing Knight. What page was I on again?" opening the book, Looking inside its pages it seems that he lost the page he was on. Cursing under his breath, with a shrug of his shoulders he opens it up on its first page and begins reading.
Niallus Saberhagen
Event: Roses and Neskals
Mentions: Ingrid @Dragonpiece
Stepping through the portal, with the rest of team Secto the Rose and Neskals Tournament. Hearing the crowds roar in excitement, put Niallus on edge, since he'll be playing in front of huge crowds. His first match they were up against a team that were the fan favourites for the entire event. Afraval, in Anghaz, Virang. Secto had the worst matchup straight off the bat, a team that most of the players are ridiculously strong. The chances of us surviving, never mind winning, are very slim.
Trying to calm himself down, Niallus takes a trip around, to explore the area in search of treasure. He takes a look into an abandoned ruin, untouched for god knows how long. Exploring the ruin further, the dust doesn't really seem to bother him that much. But it'll be best for him to stay on his guard. Arriving at a fork, he can either take these really fragile looking stairwell, or an unlocked storage area. Niallus's brow furrows "Which way?" He looks at one then the other. Looking on the floor he finds a small stone, picking it up, he gently throws it onto the stairs. It makes contact, followed by low creak noise. Immediately some of the stairs just collapse. Niallus covers his mouth, the dust still gets to him and he starts to cough from a huge amount of dust kicked up from the stairs collapsing. "So I'm not going that way." Waving his hand in front of his face, looking to the unlocked door, it seems he has no choice now, Cautiously opening the door. Hopefully it won't cause anything else to collapse. Inside all was a wardrobe and a locked dresser. Curious about them, he decides to open the wardrobe first. Opening it, one of the doors came off "Oops!" Placing it down on the floor. Looking inside the wardrobe, inside was some really old and really dusty clothes, rummaging through them all of them that he could see had giant holes in them that looked like the work of moths. Disappointed he turns round ready to leave when he realises the set of drawers.
Trying to open the first draw, it doesn't budge, it's locked. Looking at the lock it's completely rusted over, no chance of picking this lock, he'll have to break it open. Using a small amount of arcane magic, he creates a makeshift claw on the tip of the index finger on his left hand. He snaps the lock off with a swift motion of his hand, he breaks the lock and is able to open the first draw. Opening it up, he was a little disappointed that it had nothing inside. "This is looking like a bust to me. Still I have one more draw." The lock on the second draw wasn't as rusty as the previous, so he could pick this one. Eventually opening it all that was inside was a strange compass, picking it up "A compass?" Opening it up, the needle points off into a direction. "That's odd. It's not pointing north, is it broken?" Looking at the back of the compass. It seems it was Engraved with six letters 'V.I.S.O.E.D' "what does this mean? I'll have to look into it after the trials." Walking back out of the room he remembers that the first match will be starting soon so he runs as quick as possible, not to be late.
Before Round 2 started, Niallus took a short trip along the shore line, he eventually meeting a stallion that was completely spooked. He managed to calm it down but he wondered where it even came from. It lead Niallus further down the shore where he came across a Thresher that seem to be caught in a net and was terrified, based on how it trashed around. Too scared the horse bolted away while Niallus walked closer to the Thresher. "I'm not going to hurt you. I'm here to help. Don't eat the help." Eventually he manages to free the Thresher. It stands their, it's giant frame looking at Niallus. However Niallus takes a step back from it and the Thresher does the same. Wondering a theory Niallus moves to the right, it does the same. It seems to be mimicking the actions that he does, he wondered if it imprinted on him thinking Niallus as it's parent. Niallus puts a hand up to in attempt to pet it, it does a makeshift fist bimp with it's huge claw, walking away the Thresher egarly follows him. Seem he has a new pet, and it's a big one.
Before Round 3 Niallus wasn't alone for this treasure hunt to the swamps. He managed to reunite with his childhood friend, Ingrid. They had a lot of fun. Sure they nearly got eaten by giant toads but he managed to get a magical rifle, The Plainsman's Rifle a state-of-the-art flintlock sniper rifle, imbued with runic manas. Dark, sleek, and simple in design. He doesn't use firearm much, he could use this as an opportunity to get some practice with it, or trade to someone else. it cost him a shirt since he destroyed it trying to get rid of the smell of toad bile off him.
Deciding once again to go on another adventure with Ingrid, they took a trip into the sewers. Niallus ended up up with a mouthful of sewage, fell down a hole completely soaked in sewage and may have a concussion. Honestly it was a little embarrassing in front of Ingrid but she didn't seem to care, she was even a little worried about me, it was sweet. Since they wasted so much trying to get back together, they went back in after the final game of Roses and Neskals. There was a bit of tension between the two, but they managed to get past this and find an item for Ingrid and a map of the catacombs, which they will hold onto for another adventure together.
Niallus Saberhagen
Event: A Prickly Situation
As Jocasta introduces herself to Niallus and the others shen then goes into details for the reason for this request.
So, that's Jocasta. Niallus tilts his head, wondering how she of could lost her memory. looking around at the rest of the group, he doesn't seem to know many people here, then again, he's fairly new to people who aren't part of team Secto. The people were very diverse. no doubt they all have their own different strengths.
Don't worry. with all of us here, it shouldn't be too hard to find what you're looking for." going to place that'll hopefully jog her memory seems like a good idea to start off with, then we'll go from there. he has some concerns on trying not to cause a commotion, cause it get end up a lot worse. Niallus prepares himself as he steps through the portal that Jocasta created with a smile on his face, excited for this adventure.
Niallus Saberhagen
The Dragon Race Part IV: Invasive.
Location: Island of Longwan, Southern ReTan.
Niallus steps through the portal for his part of the race. he felt the difference almost immediately in temperature. Even without his coat, he's feeling the heat. Looking around to get his bearings in the bamboo forest, its rather dark with very little light. I must have missed the part where they mentioned it was going to be dark. This may complicate things. he takes a deep breath, focusing, trying to sense of what's around him, some dangerous predators like, snakes and alligators. nothing too dangerous as long as he avoids them, as long as they don't seem to be threatened. Speaking of which wasn't he supposed to partnered up with someone?
"Where is my partner? I might have to talk to some locals, see if anyone has seen them." Using his Arcane magic to summon one of his swords of light, using it as a makeshift torch. he makes his way to a village.
While getting closer to the village, he didn't want to be seen as a threat so undone his magic. Hopefully he'll be able to find his partner, her name is Enoxi'asha'luunetar. so hopefully she'll be able to stand out. a female voice comes from the right of him.
looking over he sees a petite Yasoi flirting with one of the islanders, That must be her. or she's a lost child. "Excuse me, are you Enoxi'asha'luuntar?" she turns her head in response, "Hey handsome, you must be Niallus my partner for capturing the Djamantese Micropigs?" he nods. the islander looks at both Niallus and Enoxi, "If you are both here to help deal with pigs, I'll happliy provide information." he clears his throat then continues, "Those little pests have been destroying our crops, we've tried setting traps with cages but they keep evading them." Niallus and Enoxi already knew this, but it never hurt to gather info from the locals. Enoxi undressing the islander with her eyes, it was kind of unsettling. trying to get back on topic Niallus asks the islander for information.
"Can you tell where there is an open field, as well as a tarpit is? also I'll like to borrow five of your cages please."
"Eh?!" Enoxi piped up. "We are here to capture them, not sightsee. Unless you have a plan?" the islander is confused by Niallus question, but answers. "There's a small open area about five minutes away to the north and the closest tarpit is 10 mins in the west of us"
Niallus thanks the islander for the advice and the cages, then walks away, while Enoxi puts the charm back on. "Now that he gone let's get back to what we were saying." moving in closer to the islander, walking two of her fingers up his chest. Suddenly she feels something grab her by the back of her collar.
"Come on, let's go. You can flirt later." Naillus says dragging Enoxi away with him, she's complaining at being dragged away.
While walking through the forest, sweat coming off Niallus's face, as a Eskand he wasn't used to this sort of weather. However it wasn't but he wouldn't of mind taken his shirt off in an attempt to cool off, but there was no telling what Enoxi would do. At the moment she kept close so she didnt get lost since Niallus was using one of arcane swords as a light source once again. Along the way, the preperation took a bit longer that expected. The plan; head to the Tarpit and dip an arcane sword into the tar, from there he'll carry it back to the open area and spread it onto the floor with some of the carrots from the inventory at the centre, using Enoxi's Chemical magic on some stone to create the illusion that theres more carrots. So, while waiting, they decided to look for some treasure. they stook close to together, since it would only waste time if they got lost and trying to regroup. Enoxi was the first to find an item which was a pitchfork, it was a bit odd finding it out in the middle of the forest. While walking back to where the trap they could hear squeals of panic, thats a good sign. three pigs were stuck in tar in an attempt to eat the carrot bait.
"Yay it worked!" Enoxi shouted getting three cages from under some shrubbery.
"Three out of five isn't bad." Niallus pinned a pig down with one hand, grabbing a bottle of water, he washed the tar off the pigs so they were unharmed then they placed them into the cages.
They went off again to look around for some more treasure. Eventually they came across a dead poacher, the only thing that was salvageable was some AAA+ Djamantese Micropigs pelts that Niallus took No idea what I'm going to do with these, but it's better than nothing. they came back to the trap and another two pigs were caught. After they were caged that was all five needed to finish the race, so Enoxi grabbed two cages while Niallus grabbed the other and made their way to the drop off.
