"Despite the fact that you have enough power to crush me where I stand, I'm a little fond of you."
Eldae's heart leaped at those words, but he still had enough presence of mind to control his appearance. He grinned back, shaking his head slowly. "Ah, but you don't know my secret. After channeling my power into tatoos, which I prefer not to use unless I have to, as well as that fight, my mind is just about drained. I have got about nothing left when it comes to fighting. I'm that mentally worn-out."

"I have got about nothing left when it comes to fighting. I'm that mentally worn-out."
*Amaera smiled, her bright blue eyes shining playfully.* "Well then, I shall have to be your faithful protector during such times. And as your protector, I say that we should get you to your room so that you can relax for a while."

"And as your protector, I say that we should get you to your room so that you can relax for a while."
Eldae smiled at his 'protector'. "I'm not going to disagree with that. The way I feel now, I doubt I could go much further than the inn." They walked in silence for a while, eventually reaching the inn by the fountain. "Do you have a room here as well?"

"Do you have a room here as well?"
*Amaera shook her head.* "Not much point in getting a room for someone just as comfortable out in the woods. Although after what we just went through out there a room doesn't sound too bad. Still... I'm living on a bard's wages. One month I'm rich the next month I have nothing. Best to just save it until I need it."

Vorquarë walked down the street going the opposite way Eldae and Amaera were. Vorquarë looked at Eldae and recognized him immidietly. "Eldae? Eldae is that you?" Vorquarë asked. He was not sure who Eldae was with, and he hasn't seen Eldae in a while.

"Eldae? Eldae is that you?"
Eldae looked in the direction of the voice. It sounded familiar. Looking closer, he recognized Vorquarë. "Vorquarë? What are you doing here? Last I heard you were off persuing a 'business oppertunity'."

*Amaera gave Eldae and the stranger a puzzled look. Suddenly realizing that maybe Eldae wouldn't want to be caught in such a position with her while speaking with the man, she hesitantly slipped out from under his arm and took a step away to let him talk.*

"Well, let's just say I didn't quite get along with the person offering the 'opprutunity.' What are you doing here?" Vorquarë asked.

Blood Lark came upon the city a little after Eldae and Amaera. Then he saw a stranger talking to Eldae, he wondered if it was trouble and went to go check it out.

"What are you doing here?"
"Regrouping." Eldae thought for a moment. "Speaking of which, I was wondering if you would like to join us. A different business opportunity, this time with an old friend. We're going after a gem in Drow territory. You game?"

"You game?"
"How could I not be game if there is a gem involved?" Vorquarë laughed and turned to Eldae's companion. "Sorry for being rude and not introducing myself, My name is Vorquarë."

*Amaera gave a smile and nodded in return.* "Pleased to meet you. Any friend of Eldae's is a friend of mine. I'm Amaera."

"That's good to hear, cause it's the same way for me." Vorquarë laughed and turned to Eldea, "So tell me more about this mission."

Eldae smiled. Straight and to the point, as usual. Eldae pulled out the map. "I found this on one of my earlier adventures. It indicates an ancient elven treasury in the forest of Cormanthyr. I can't quite make it out, but there is something special about the gem held there. Whether it's magical or just really valuable, I don't know. Either way, that's our target. The problem is, aside from being protected by whatever guardians the leves had, it is also near drow territory. We are hoping to avoid them, but..." Eldae trailed off with that uncertainty.

"Well Eldae, I am an Elf as well, and hopefully they will show some kindness to me. As far as the drows, I'm sure we can handle them." Vorquarë said with a laugh. "Would you two happen to need a place to stay?"
