One of the lost. [Open]

[Matthial]

Matthial accepted the flagon and took a long pull. It wasn't immediate, but it soon became obvious that this was a mistake. The face puckered up as the man bit at his lip and looked at Ronan out of the corner of his eye. "What was this called again?" The traveller decided on 'Grass poison' as he tried to keep it down. It was... potent. He waited a long moment before he took another drink underneath the hawker's tent. The second pull was much the same as the first. It direct contrast with natural laws, this drink kicked just as hard regardless of how much liquid was consumed. Raising his drink he did his best to laugh with Ronan. Then he paused. His 'warwound' suddenly sparking up bringing a wince to the man's face. "Hey, thanks for what you did. Coulda' walked on, but you didn't. I'm in your debt. You ever need something you just ask." An otherwise serious moment was ruined as the owner burst out into laughter at the traveler's next face as he took a drink.

[Ronan]

Ronan laughed as Matthial grimaced at the ale. He never tired of seeing such a reaction from outsiders. As he finally swallowed the potent drink, Matthial let out a small laugh himself.

"Hey, thanks for what you did. Coulda' walked on, but you didn't. I'm in your debt. You ever need something you just ask."

Ronan smiled. See... It isn't that hard to socialise once in a while. And besides - I actually saved his life.

"It's fine. It wasn't any hassle..." Ronan sighed, "I don't tend to ignore injured people lying in the Grass. I know how dangerous it is out there."

Deep inside, he realised his brother would be proud of him. The herb lore had been taught to him by Darus, and the general sense of the wilderness too. He owed his sibling a lot.

"Well I guess I'd better go." he looked down at his feet awkwardly, and then finally presented a hand, "it was nice to meet you Matthial."

[Matthial]

Matthial nodded and smiled warmly to the other man as he grasped the offered hand in a firm shake. "You too friend, I hope to see you around." Then he was back to his mug, obviously lost in thought. END

Thoughts: Good thread guys. Rohan just make sure to make the change to your ledger for the cost of the Ale if you haven’t already. If you have any questions about the xp I gave you or think I missed something, send me a message.
