PM to join Always an Option

Stationed out in the Mythrin for a few days Alex comes across another incident involving a disappearance. Dredging up memories he rushes off with all haste.

Description "Alex Common" Alex thoughts "Myrian" "Fratava" "Others"


The Sharp ding of stone on steel rung out like a bell. The dent from the impact plainly visible and sending a ring of pain up his leg. He’d been pelted with arrows and now a stone. Thank the gods above he was in armour or else he’d of been a pin cushion by now. What else did he expect from her but that tone of sharp ridicule? Even when he was helping he was apparently in the way. He wanted to say something to bark back but in this situation she was right. An abducted girl now being imposed over by a man in heavy steel plating laced with enough weaponry to look like a walking armoury. He did have to admit that might seem a little intimidating.

Instead of stepping in he stepped back and leant against the outside of the cabin. Just listening in and taking stock of the situation. Weighing up his own place in this. Though the question about if he knew anything about medicine was one he didn’t expect to hear.
“Why do you expect me to know anything about medicine? Aren’t knights just all killers to you?” His words a little digging but after a brief pause and light silence intermittently broken by the girls whimpering he sighed and spoke. “Rear of the cabin there’s some plants I spotted, Belltor is one of them the other is Vyfox. Boil some leaves of Belltor in some water and use that to help the head pain. Take some leaves of the Vyfox, grind it into a paste with some water and apply it to the scrapes it’ll accelerate the healing. Bes I can suggest at present though I don’t think there’ll be much time for that though as I doubt sincerely that it was just three guys.”

His words were honest as he usually was but carried a gravity as he spoke.
“Grab the thin leaved plant and the long stemmed one. We’ll get out of here first and then treat her as that will be much safer for all parties involved.” His words weren’t a discussion at this point it was more of a commanding tone that meant they should. Even if she didn’t want to follow his advice.

Dove nodded at Alex's words about herbs and went back to cutting the ropes that bound the girl. His accusation about her opinion of knights fell through the quiet and she let it hit the ground without response as she sawed her knife through the last of the knotted ropes. The girl gasped with relief, tried to stand, and fell back again. Dove bit back a sigh and said, "Stay there a moment. I'll get the herbs and come back to give you a hand." She slipped out of the door, past Alex, and round to where he said the herbs grew. She found the ones he had described, picked them, and stuffed them into a side pocket of her backpack.

Returning past Alex, she muttered, "I don't expect things of people, if I don't know, then I ask. You're the one that keeps telling me you're not a knight yet and shouldn't be treated like one." Her jarred shoulders protested painfully as she pulled the girl to her feet. The girl was, of course, taller than Dove - everyone seemed to be taller than she was - but Dove drew the girl's arm across her shoulders and took most of her weight. "Close your eyes if it helps," she told her. "I'll steer." She'd carried her drunken father home this way often enough. She could manage a girl her own age. She paced slowly across the inside of the shelter, letting the girl find her feet beside her, then turned her towards the door and half carried, half supported her through it. She tipped her head back to look up at Alex as he stood there, but didn't let go of the girl. "Ready when you are... Let's get out of here. I can run while you two ride."
Very busy at work. May not be around much for a while.

Graders Please Note :
As Ball is getting closer and closer to maxing out Pyken as a skill, I would like to request that in places where Ball is not doing enough to constitute Pyken XP if Pyken technique lores could be issued instead.

Examples of proper XP level for Pyken would be: Ball developing or refining his technique by adding new thing against an actual moving target, not a dummy.

The use of basic skills alone are not enough to accomplish XP at Ball's current level of Pyken.

Thank you.

I will be handling all Ball related posts on Mondays @ 1800 my time *
