Oh that made her laugh alright. "What?" Hold on, was he saying that Zahara had gotten a crush on thier newly employed rune mage? "Why? Does she get that blank stare of daydreaming that I get when I look at you?" After all...when the drow gathered she liked to make herself scarce. "And what do you mean by adjustment? What's going on in that head of yours?" Was that a safe question to ask even? Though she took a moment to think about his question before she answered him with another question rather than an answer he wanted. "Do you want me to take up my magics more actively? I mean, we both know I can do and that I've got quite the kick with them...I just don't use them. And what with all that's happening around here..." War, blah...she'd play by his rules. She knew she needed to practice her sword play as well.

"it's a burning in the eyes. like coals stoked overnight. not a burning glare, but a warm gaze. as for adjustments...I was thinking to get those two to be working a bit closer togethermostly to get her and him on at least a civil level. after all if he's going to be working for us, he needs to be able to work with those around us. and when put together after a time, her female drow instincts should kick in and if she does like him she'll persue him. I give them a month before eithe roe of them tries to kill the other or the end up in bed together."
A slight chuckle.
"Your magics are yours. I would like you to take up your runemagics if you know them, to better defend ourselves if your new friend goes turncoat on us. other magics I'll leave to your judgement."

"In other words you give him his assignement and it just so happens that he has to work with her, learn to tolerate her and such. He wants his pay he has to play with the other children. You can actually be subtle, can't you?" THough it was an interesting thing to hear him mention Zahara's 'female drow instincts'....did they really do that? Then again she could see how it would be turned to instinct, what with the death rate so high to drow. "Accept you make it sound like he'd have fun with that. From teh screaming we hear he seems adamant about breaking some rather Llothian hold on himself." Though she was pleased with the fact that he left her decisions about her abilities up to her. Piper figured devoting a little study to her detection and defense magics against runes wouldn't be so bad. A nuzzle to his chest. "You're a wonderful elf, do you know that?" A little laugh before she got up, pulling him up with her. "But yes, I believe we could both use some relaxing and reverie...after all, I'm still not done enjoying this bond thing." Thus she lead him off upstairs, to hell with the place for the night.

Zahara was not having a good reverie. It seemed like all her bad memories were saving themselves for one reverie and then they all just kind of hit her at once. She was forced to relive the moments in her life she most despised. It happened every once in a while, an elf couldn't have good reverie all the time. As a result she wasn't a real happy camper when she was finally released from its hold. She pushed up into a sitting position and ran a hand through her hair. Fixing her clothes and hair, she pulled on her last pair of socks, stupid ferret, and boots and stepped out of her room. Who knew what fun thing was going ot be around to greet her today?

A misty morning, if ever there was one. He pulled a bit of shady blond hair out of his eyes, peeking out through the trees. He had been traveling for ever it seemed, but then agian his sense of direction was lowesy in this form. He'd been wandering for years.
He looked the part of the young adult, just turned ninetten. Piercing green eyes and pale skin, full lips and a killer smile. Yup, he looked the part. He checked the broken dagger at his belt, and stepped out onto the forest path, looking in both directiosn. Wait a moment...which way had he come from again?

Sevilin made his way down the 'path' he had memorized to the fortress...sure he could translocate himself...but there was nothing like a nice brisk Underdark walk in the morning. Now why pray tell was he going back to this place when he seemed to dispise it? Easy....free breakfast.
Well he hadn't been paid anything yet and he was being lazy today...and he deserved some free food after all the damn hell he was being put through what with that woman and all.
Nym chittered on his shoulder happy as could be and still puffy from eating so much the day before. Normal for these two though really. He was playing along Sev's shoulder, jumping to his head and riding there every now and then. But they neared the fortress and he dropped down takign to slinking....then stopped in his tracks and looking off another direction. Oh what was that smell? That was new. A tug at Sev's pant leg. Hey come here a minute come on! I want to see what it is! He duly ran off down the path...and nearsightedness had him slamming into something. Chitter?
Sevilin rolled his eyes. What in the name of Lloth was that guy getting himself into now?! With a bit of mumbling he picked up his pace a little to close the little gap between them though stopped at the sigh of what Nym ran in to. What was with people all over this place...its was the Underdark for crying out loud!

Malik got up, and let a throughly malik fatigued Piper lay in bed, winceing as he stretched, them nails were painful sometimes, before grinning lightly and heading downstairs. he had a chore for Sev..and one for Zahara. this was going to be so much fun.
Breakfast was already set and ready to go, and at least one Vah had alreayd been eating. most the meat was gone and there was the occaional black feather to point to the cuplrit.

Boots clattered on teh stone steps as she made her way downstairs and into the dining room. SHe was hungry and there didn't seem to be anyone else up...except Malik. Oh joy. She wasn't going to say anything, maybe then he wouldn't say anything either. She really didn't want to fight with him, so she simply sat down at the table and waited to see what would happen. SHe'd be damned if she'd get up and start making herself breakfast whil ehe was in teh room. So he oculd make a snide comment? Not thank you. SHe wasn't looking to get her collar yanked either.

A little confused at first, he looked around, not all that sure what had hit him...then looked down. A ferret? How unusual. He bent down and straightened the little guy onto his feet. "Hey there little fella. Best to be careful, eh? my foot might be the lion's mouth next time." And finally he noticed that the little ferrit was not alone. And...it was a drow. bless his luck. He stood back up, scratching the back of his neck.
"Um....hi..."

Oh wait, wait, something's touchign me, it's got fingers! I'm a ferret, I don't taste good! Oh..wait...you're helping me up...um...okay...thanks...you're what I smelled. Hey Sev look what I- oh you already see him, okay then. Lion, there aren't any lions down here...only like like things. Lions need sun. No sun in the Underdark. A chitter and he skittered back to sev climbing up his boots and hair in turn.
Hi?....What in the...no he wasn't going to ask. Why was it him who had this sort of luck. Okay let's go for a non personable non helping way. Thusly a smirk and he took to casually walking, first too then past whoever the hell he ran in to. "You look lost...wander the Underdark lost and you'll find yourself dead. Drow like to prey on things like you, you know." Speak of the devil! Sevilin was a drow!

"Ah, nothing alive is ever gonna hurt me," he shrugged off the warning. "The non-living however..." and kicked at the dirt on the ground. Head snapped up. "Hey hey! Where you going? Is there a settlement around her or something?" He walked backwards a moment, looking all around him. Everything looked the same with these eyes.
But he stopped squinting. "Wait...if it's a drow settlement then i'm not sure I'm heading in the right direction..."

She stared at Malik for a moment, her jaw quite literally dropping. He wanted her to do what?! She reached for a plate to try to keep calm and put some food on it then slammed it down. "No Malik I won't. I refuse to spend more time in the company of that infuriating Drow! I do'nt like him, he doestn like me, we'd end up killing each other. And what if he refuses to teach me? He's going to try to make me look stupid. Or he could teach me the wrong thing? What then?" Those nails began tapping a steady beat and she was getting more upset. THen she sat back and crossed her arms. "No. No. ANd no. I won't do it Malik. I'm sorry but I won't."

"Someone's brave...or foolish." Two possibilites...something was wrong with this guy...or he was an idiot. Being Sev, he wanted to lean toward the latter. Though he did get his attention with the non living thing...after all Silvercrest had mentioned something about a litch. So he was granted a look, though the drow kept walking.
"No Drow settlement here in a few miles I would say. And for what you need to know...I'm going to work." Hm...tell him where and what or not to...how much did he want to annoy those around him? Eh, he could use him for rune fodder if anything. "A fortress up ahead here..." Oh Lloth...don't tell him he was going to have a tag a long.

"I'm just telling the truth."
"A fortress? I don't think I'm looking for a fortress..." He scratched his head. "Or am I? Memory's getting old I suppose." He picked up his step and followed about half a pace behind the drow. "I'll just come with you and find out then." In everytihng about him, except for osme of the odd little tihngs he said, he seemed no older than nineteen.
