And here I thought I had made my interest quite apparent.

What would give you that impression? I may be deceitful in my own ways, but I have never made a point of lying to you, my dear.

Our betters are ever eager to trade lives for some amorphous idea of a greater good. Personally, I have no illusions. But good on you, I'll take conviction over dawdling.

[ Her proposal is informed by expedience before ethics; she belongs to neither of the aforementioned schools of thought and whether that makes her a person of low character is somebody else's business. ]

Praise be! I'd petition you to carry me before braving another rolling hill, seeing how brazenly uninconvenienced you are by physical labour.

[ The young woman is really gaunt and short of breath and yet surprisingly tenacious despite her difficulty keeping up, as if propelled forwards by her spite. As they set camp Samarie walks the perimeter, tracing a circle around their refuge with a crooked stick while muttering indiscernible grievances to herself. ]

[ His solitary attendance to the physical labours of establishing a camp would be par for the course were she a woman of status in the company of her knight, but from Samarie's standpoint, she is no different from the spawn of "cow shit," to use the verbiage of the gentry in reference to peasants, and therefore she ought to contribute like a dirty little peasant girl should. Well, she'd probably fumble the pitching of the tent and his pre-emptive intervention in the matter spares her the indignity of asking, but she is in fact playing her part in securing their sleep. The seemingly aimless scribble the dark priest etches into the dirt is in service of thwarting an ambush, a necessary precaution in enemy territory.

Godfrey is cutting carrots when, apropos of nothing, Samarie suddenly explodes: ]


Kaa! Do you think I'm some feckless rube? I studied sorcery at Fiend Petr's Basilica!

[ Before he can so much as part his lips, the young woman whips out a blade and opens her outstretched forearm with the end of the knife. Blood runs hot from the gash and speckles the grass and soil at her feet. A burst of flame casts shadows upon the their faces as fire travels the circumference of their camp like the lit fuse of a dynamite before vanishing into the darkness from which it came, leaving a ring of evaporating smoke about the camp. The tell-tale signature of blood magic: self-mutilation. ]

N-no need to trade shifts... Gro-goroth will protect us.

[ Samarie sits on an incline and stares pointedly into the heart of the fire. The blood on her arm has yet to clot and slithers from the cut. It's not fatal, but there. The worked up sorcerer pays no heed to the wound. ]

I will try my utmost to make myself presentable, but please forgive my lack of polish, if you will.

[ The gesture will certainly be appreciated. Elves have rather sensitive hearing, after all. ]

My friend, I may not be the most pious of knights, but I would never deign to jest in the face of your own piety. Truly, your good works have been invaluable to our team, and I feel I ought to repay your kindness in some small way.

[ A high elf cannot help but put on airs, Godfrey. Why do you think they are called such?

Julien doesn't bother with reading the message, their ears already pricked to the sound of gentle knocking at their door.

The latch clicks, the door swings open partway, and Julien peers around the frame, blue eyes squinting through their lashes against the brightness streaming through the windows. Their fiery hair hangs loose about their face, unkempt and bristling with unruly curls. Their face bears no hint of powder, nor makeup, though their eyes are shadowed from poor sleep. An old blanket is draped over their shoulders, giving them the unfortunate appearance of a vagrant begging for alms.

They catch sight of Godfrey's broad shoulder turning from them, his blond hair catching the light, turning it to burnished gold.

He's a saint, truly, for aiding them in their hour of need. ]


A moment, friend. [ Julien's gaze drops to the offerings laid by the door, then quickly shifts toward the interior of their room. ] ...would you like some tea?

More for me, then. I’ll say not all unions are worth the work: I had one couple who would have a row about the wife’s mother all the time, so of course I went to meet this lady on my own time and she and I became good friends. Come to find out, the mother refused to see them because the husband had first married the wife’s cousin, gave her a child and then broke things off to take up with the wife.
So armed with this, the next time they get to fighting I get between them and tell them about what a lovely birthday his child had just had. The looks on their faces, Gwilym, I’ll never forget.

You know, that's perfectly fair. There are some things we are just not meant to know. I can appreciate the courage to be open about it, but I don't want to discover it.

I mean, if you interrupted, wouldn't you also be furious? I don't think even the most silver-tongued bard would be able to talk their way out of that.

Well. Maybe a really good bard might be able to.

Why were they interrupted to begin with?
