- xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxHelerid Vygilis
=====================
xxxxxxHelerid smiled, happy that the conflict was resolved, and took a seat beside Zhetta. A bowl of stew was brought to her by Ymir as well, but she just stared at it and made no effort to eat it. The host was only half-orc, if her observations were correct, but she was still reluctant to eat anything prepared by him. The others appeared to be perfectly fine with him, but... he was part orc. Speaking of orcs, there was another who seemed to have hidden himself in the shadows of the room, away from everyone else. He would need to be watched carefully.
xxxxxx'What a strange traveling party.'
xxxxxxShe did feel a little bad about Amara leaving, more so because she didn't have a chance to apologize for striking her; although it was in self defense, it had also been a misunderstanding, and they shared a common interest.
xxxxxxHelerid listened attentively to the plan being discussed by her new companions. Apparently they needed to sneak into Redvale, and everyone pitched their ideas, except for Helerid. She would've liked give her own input, but she wasn't sure what the reason was for going there in the first place, and so she was determined to ask later.
xxxxxxShe heard them speak of a mask and saw the golden artifact in Eliria's hands as it was passed into Zhetta's. Her eyes went wide. "A mask of Kadesh. You all slew a demon?" she said with astonishment and envy. In her thoughts she assured herself that, by joining them, she would surely find other opportunities to serve the gods in such a fashion.
xxxxxxA young boy sat next to her at the table. Helerid remembered seeing him earlier, and wondered if he was also part of the group. He was so tiny that his feet couldn't touch the floor even when seated, and his manners seemed to her just as innocent as his appearance. He introduced himself as Taymur and sneaked a compliment to her in the same breath.
xxxxxx'Ah, so he's a fairy. I should've guessed.'
xxxxxxHelerid was immediately taken by him. "Why, hello there, Taymur. I'm Helerid," she said to him with a big, smitten smile. "Aren't you just the cutest thing?" She pinched Taymur's cheek with her gloved fingers, giggling at their softness and at the fairy's childlike face. "Yes, I am going to help, and we're going to travel together. Would you like to be my little brother?"
xxxxxxShe couldn't give him her full attention for long, unfortunately, as the Redvale soldiers entered the tavern and made themselves at home. This didn't trouble Helerid very much, and as she continued to play with Taymur's cheeks she leaned closer to Zhetta and whispered:
xxxxxx"If these men are going to be a problem, perhaps we can pose as missionaries come to pray for the afflicted in this village. We can gather the people in the center and I could give a sermon. Come to think of it, maybe that could get us into Redvale."
