The House of Chance

Ark watches the man leave the room.

"I dont belive there were any introductions at all, i only know his name because people yell at him,...maybe he should have let them die, natrual selection, I got out of that disaster by using my wits, nobody helped me.

Ark shrugs and leaps off the table

"Actually I have to head back to Sanguis Lupus soon, left my friend there alone and she needs to be looked after, I can teach you when i come back...or you could come with me, your choice."

Humm....well I need to help Mr. Atrum with something as well as Finn and the others when they return, so right now I need to remain here.

Perhaps after I return I can take you up on that offer?

*She looks around*

Sorry, I got wrapped up in talking to Mr. Ark. Mr. Abaddon this is Ark, he's a friend of Lady Vaun's. *Looks over at Atrum* I'm going to assume you two have met before back in that Haven place, correct. If not. Mr. Ark sir that's Mr. Atrum.

"Ark. Nice to meet you. Anything you require we can provide. Food, clothing, comfort. Games and safety. You may take your leave of everything the House has to offer.

We employ the finest blacksmiths outside of the dwarven land, and the House special is Kami's Black lemonade. "

*Atrum shakes his head as Ingram walks away*

No need for introductions Aurora, we have met. Ark mentioning it was the first I heard of Capt Steele's fate.

*Atrum's hand unconsciously goes to the heartshaped pendant around his neck and then notices it there*

She restored my faith in her friendship, and she paid the price at the hands of a murderous lech.

How is your Witch Queen and that pet of hers these days? *The venom in his voice is very apparent*

And who exactly is Olan supposed to have saved besides Ren and Quen?

Aurora, we can go spar abit, I doubt Esmerelda will mind if I keep you out of the kitchens for an hour or so. I may not be a warrior, but I can still show you a few tricks with a blade.

"Atrum, have we not had this conversation before? I don't think it's necessary to rehash the many ways Ingram saved you, and your people. You refuse to admit it, so there is no point beyond grandstanding. We had this discussion, and it went no where.

No, it is time to open a new page. A new book. And it would behoove us all to put the past in the past and work for tomorrow. We have thrown our full support to Lady Esmeralda and Lord Modhri in the the direction Far Reach is to take."

*Aurora looks at Atrum*

Olan? So is Mr. Ingram Olan or Ingram...sorry but I'm curious as to why he is called two different names by you Mr. Atrum sir.

*She pauses when a Captain Steele is mentioned*

Wait...Captain Steele? Do you mean Gin Steele?

*She looks worried*

I know him Mr. Atrum Sir. We met a few years ago when he was looking for his ship. Our paths crossed when I first started in the Gendarmen. I even showed him a few things I can do as a mage hunter and we became fast friends.

He was going to return him once he found his ship and I got a bit older...well like I am now. I even have his Captain's Coat and Hat waiting for him for I've been keeping it safe for him.

*All of a sudden it dawns on her and she visually looks down.*

Mr. Atrum Sir, Gin wasn't where I think he was, was he?

*Atrum bursts into laughter*
Noone has ever suggested to me that dark elf had any hand in "saving" me or anyone else we were with before we met on the road, just before we left town. That's ridiculously preposterous. Finding Esmerelda and Gol and taking them to safety is what if anything that saved Seth and I's lives. We were headed to try and kill Corbyn and as many of those bastards as we could when we found other survivors. That drove home to me that my obligations went well beyond making sure Corbyn paid. Believe the words of a man that chooses to hide his true nature through alchemy if you wish. Olan did not "save" me, or anyone that was with me that night.

And who exactly had who's life in their hands and chose to spare it despite the overwhelming evidence to the contrary?

It's convenient that when faced with a differeing tale than what was woven artfully by Olan that the refrain of, the past is the past it uttered. Yet the past is what he and you, who was not even a part of anything there yourself and only have his word for, is what is rehashed over and over.

The stench of arrogance closed mindedness rancors my nostrils in theis place, so I will take my leave of it.

Aurora if you wish to spar, you know where to find me. And no, I meant Robin.

*Turns and leaves without a word to anyone else*

Aurora · Post by **Aurora** » Mon Jun 09, 2008 12:31 pm

*Turns to Ark*

Shall we go spart with Mr. Atrum, Mr. Ark Sir? Could someone please tell me what happened to my friend please. Mr. Ark is Gin....umm...well did that nasty Corbyn guy kill my friend?

If you would like Gin's things, at least what I have, I can give that to you as well Mr. Ark.

"Atrum, are you denying that we had this very conversation, when Ingram started to be build the gate? Surely you remember it. I saw we must move on, because the arguing will go no where. We have told you how were helped, and you refuse to acknowledge it. There is nothing more we can do. "

OOC actually I did forget that was what started that whole thing.

*Without pausing in his steps.*

Indeed, the talking is at an end.

Abaddon · Post by **Abaddon** » Mon Jun 09, 2008 2:05 pm

"I am fairly sure that Captain Gin was one of many of the fallen. Indeed, Vaun and I have had some discussion on the matter. "

*Aurora looks at Abaddon, her demeanor well conveying that she is sadden but she refuses to cry in front of everyone.*

Thank-you for the information Mr. Abaddon, sir. Not like I needed any motivation to take down that wretch Corbyn if you all find him, but now well it's personal, more so then before for Gin was a good friend during his brief stay here.

"There are indeed a great many scores to settle with the ancient enemy. Lives snuffed out like candles in the darkness. But that is one reason why getting that land back might matter. Those who are beyond the threshhold, can only be summoned back into this world, from there."

Aurora · Post by **Aurora** » Mon Jun 09, 2008 2:41 pm

*She looks at him*

What spell are you proposing to use to do that? The only one I know, well the overall design of said spell is not good cause of the elements involved in using said spell if you're proposing to use the one I think that you are.

*Switches her focus to Ark.*

Mr. Ark, would you mind terribly possibly sparing with Mr. Atrum and I. I feel the need to take out some agression and might as well learn something during the process. The meditation I do isn't going to cover this one for awhile.

Abaddon · Post by **Abaddon** » Mon Jun 09, 2008 2:43 pm

"I know a great many spells. Pulling someone from beyond the threshhold is one of the harder tasks. It takes an enormous amount of focus. And there are things. Creatures that exist in the ether that would destroy us if our concentration swayed for a second."
