Hell, soon he'll have enough characters to run his own rp, I fear we may be on the cusp of a singularity my esteemed colleagues.

That's fine, I thought it was a bit hard to read, I'll change it around.

I think I need to change Morgan's font color, can y'all read that?

MORGAN

________________________________________________
November 18 6:47 P.M.
West Commons, The Pale Horse

Morgan entered the already bustling tavern through a servants entrance to the kitchens, quickly sidestepping through the busy kitchen, the cooks with their hands full giving a quick nod of acknowledgement, while the rather industrious fellow with 6 arms and golden skin gave a enthusiastic wave, the Chef de Cuisine beckoning him over.

"Ah Jacque, I see you continue to run this crew ragged, even in my absence," Morgan said as he approached, a chuckle escaping his lips, "I fear the day you fellows decide you've little need of me here and take over."

Jacque chuckled at the now routine back and forth, " Oui, you can be assured that I would sir, but alas the madame, I fear Nessa may yet lash me soon after sir, but...perhaps soon, non," he responded, shooting Morgan a sly look and chuckling, before filling a tankard with the house's signature drink and passing it to Morgan. The Herald of Death joined the laughter, downing a good portion of the drink and patting him on the back as he made his way out of the kitchen

A twinge of pride swelled in him as he saw the merriment within the bar was well in action. There were a few long faces, but they mostly belonged the the poor chaps how decided to sit at the poker table full of cat-kin, whose games rarely came down to who had the better hand than who was the trickiest cheater, a game often with more moves than a chessboard. They'd learn the hard way. Morgan would have to keep an eye on that table for the sign to know when his business partner had arrived.

He finished his standard as he scanned the room, enjoying the warm feeling that spread over him as he put the mug on the bar, nodding to a few of,the patrons who noticed his arrival. As a rule he never got drunk on buisness time, a feat that would be something to see for sure, but people who drink love to see those in charge joining in.

He could see that Nessa was already torturing the patrons, an experience not altogether unpleasant as he knew from first hand knowledge. Her target of choice being that poor nurse from the old birds clinic, a rather promising fellow if low on self-esteem. Morgan had heard rumors he was in line to be the next Hand, but nothing concrete. He'd keep an eye on him through the night and make sure he left with a smile, just in case such tales proved true.

Speaking if Hands, a few seats down from him sat a rather dapper fellow, easily recognizable to Morgan. He decided he'd let the poor boy alone for now as his regular seemed to be searching for the staff. Morgan made his way, greeting the Hand with a tone of familiarity, "Well met Master Baldwin, as always it's a pleasure to see you once again, I'd be happy to offer you something from our menu, at the moment we've a nice glazed ham, Jacque has informed me is so tender, you hardly need chew, choice steaks as always, and a rack of lamb should you wish, and of course ambrosia and ichor available to those of specific diets, readily prepared how they prefer." He paused in his list before continuing on, "However, should you be yearning a taste of the old days, while our stores are running a bit low at the moment, I can assure you that we've a few choice thigh cuts as well as ribs left from a young hefer culled from a farm found on the fringes, served cooked or unaltered should you wish, of such quality I'm told the farmer was loath to be parted from her, though I fear we've only the common fare beverages to go with it," he said, waiting patiently for Baldwin's reply.

MORGAN

November 17 11:47 A.M.
West Commons-Arboretum

Morgan let out a contented sigh as the wind rushed around him, expertly navigating his old companion through the sea of night life still active in Valdoa centuries of riding taking over and guiding him with the flow of the streets as he let his mind drift, a small frown as marring his visage as his arm lifted suddenly, jerking his gaze in a dizzying spin before once more he was steadied once more as he readjustment his grip, not wanting to drop himself again. It had been a good two days after that before he'd been reunited, although that was more because an extraordinarily simple goblin had located him first and believed him an enchanted head to tell fortunes and such.

Morgan shuddered at the thought, remembering the smells he'd been introduced to. He was brought out of his memories to a place that ushered more distant one. He had once again found himself in the Arboretum, the illusion of true wilds having once more drawn him away from his self created home. Lost in memories of glories long past, here he saw a baying pack of black hounds, the eyes red and alight in the night. In the distance he could hear the haunting tones of the hunting horn, sounding off as they found sport once more. All were upstaged, however, by the shadow of he who led the hunt, a beast of a man, standing heads above any mounted creature in the pack, a wicked grin adorning his face, almost as sharp and deadly as the antlers which rose from his head, far more telling than any masterly crafted crown could signal. The man raised his hand to signal the hunt was on.

Then, like dew in the morning, the vision evaporated, that Wyld Hunt returning to the memories from whence it sprang. Morgan sighed as he stared upon the night sky, imagining once more that he could hear the horn signaling in the distance. He feared this life was domestication him, as such thoughts always came with the date of the hunt drawing near. Ah well, he had guests awaiting him back at the tavern, and though he respected...most of his staff, he feared some of them were lacking in the social arts. Still these rides helped fill a yearning for days gone past. Unsure of how long it had lain there, Morgan lifted his head off the saddle, placing it atop his shoulders for the time being. Gently patting his old friend on the neck, he turned the pitch steed back to the West Commons, a smile coming to his face as he heard some poor beast running through the forest, the thundering footfall of some predator signalling it soon demise.

Market

Morgan sighed as he finished dealing with he merchant, having finished placing an order with a merchant to resupply the meat reserves for his slice of the West Commons, many similar orders having taken up the day as he had returned to find much of his stores depleted last night as some upstart Lycan had been boasting of taken the "Test of the Serpent," or whatever it was they called that inane attempt for easy power. He had paid little attention to the whelp as he howled and recounted his tales of fury, not bothering to learn his name while gladly taking his coin. If the pup was anyone worth knowing, he'd hear of him after his meeting with the snake.

Morgan chuckled at the thought, very much doubting he'd see the youth, an aura of death had hung around the pup and he doubted he'd outwit or overpower fate. Ah well, so is life, or rather the lack there if. He had almost all his supplies ordered, with one last order of buisness before reveling in the festivities of the night, and that could be concluded at his home away from home.
