“Thank you, V!” Kosara replied in joy as she in turned listened to her bard friend in turn recount a brief summery of her own story and what brought her out there adventuring. If truth was to be told, Kosara had a loose tear in her eye at that point when the half-elf had finished. A lost family member! A journey to discover their unknown fate, a truly dramatic and epic tale worthy journey.
” I’m really hoping you find out whatever the truth of it is, V!” Kosara stated, wiping the loose tear from her eye.
” If I could help, I will try! Can also probably ask Grandpa next time he appears. Who knows, he might knows something. Or know of somebody who might know something! He seems to know a lot of stuff.” She nodded, looking now at the dragonborn who was very in tune with the typical adventuring backstory. A trouble brewing at his homelands, a desire to find help and the inability to find said help. Very much classical parts of an adventuring epic in the making.
” I haven’t been to or heard of your home, but listening to you, it must have be a marvelous place. I hope your also accomplish your task soon.” Marita’s tale about her past was not as informative as the first bits she had told them in the past, but it was new and curious still. It made Kosara wonder what her temple had to exile her like that and for her to still follow them despite the exile. She wasn’t a cleric, but she was pretty certain if Marita had crossed the deity she served, she wouldn’t have her powers… probably. Kosara realized that she really must ask her grandpa more questions on religion next time they met. Well him or any priestess or clerics in a temple. It made her now most curious if it was possible to cross the tenets of your faith as a faith based magic user and still access said magic. The sudden proclamation about them leaving right now because they had a thing they were forgetting made her a bit confused… alright she was confused a LOT. Mostly cause she hadn’t had the lunch yet. Robert’s reaction was even more shocking as his tone suddenly changed and he seemed really irritated suddenly. Mostly with Marita’s attempt to get them leave and her excuse for doing so.
What he then proceeded to do was get a chalk and scribble scrabble some scratchings at the table in a language that she didn’t know. She felt like she might have seen it somewhere, but then again she had seen samples of many languages in her time at the Oasis, she had no idea which was what. She knew Common and Infernal and realized that she might do well to compile a bit of a dictionary at the back of her journal of most common words in different languages! Now that was a curious idea! One that she might well explore with V and Kathryn later.”
Well grandpa had called me stupid a few times… but I know 2 languages, just not this one. Ask me about infernal and I will tell you all about it.” To her great benefit and the party’s reassurance Kathryn apparently recognized the thing as ‘Geas’. Being of the magical inclination even as skewed as she was, she nodded at V’s explanation. Made sense, magical contracts were a thing apparently. She wondered what her grandpa knew about them and if what she was doing with her own power was something akin to it?
” That… sounds bad.” She added at the end when V relayed that it was possible for the Geas to have some nasty negatives effects should it’s agreement be broken.
” But yes, V’s right, food!” She joined in the joy for a meal, before looking at Robert.
” So somebody’s holding you with one of those pact things, don’t reply if you shouldn’t. Seems to be a weirdly grand issue of things like these are involved. Anybody capable of affecting that? I know that in the future I might be able to dispell magical effects, but not strong enough yet.” “Ohh yes, tangents… if you can write it in that language, can you write more things in that language? Or maybe can we ask questions and if you keep quiet on a question, we know you’ve been told to not answer that one or something? Like if you were told to not say WHO did it, then we ask names in succession and when you keep quiet one of them, we know we’ve got the person?” She asked. Contracts and pacts meant words like promises, words had meanings and meanings could be circumvented. Like that time she was told and promised to not eat some sweets as a child, so she instead ate honey instead.
