You need not worry. I have promised to keep you safe, and that is one of the many reasons I must go, as well as a reason I must return in one piece. Take care, Maggie. I should not be gone for too long.
:::Cora nodded, and got her key, then walked towards the residential halls past Aetas:::
I'll be back with the weapon momentarily.

*Aetas hopped over the bar and pulled out the several bottles he had been looking over the night before, slipping one into a random pocket in his coat while he slipped the other into the sling where Caritanas should go.*
"I had hoped to never touch another bottle containing this much alcohol, but it'll likely be a part of his salvation...."

:::Cora returns to the main room as she had promised, momentarily. She had around her neck adorned a silver locket, and in her hand the mace Aetas had given her:::
I am ready. :::She faced him, awaiting his word:::

"Maggie, I bid thee farewell. With any luck I won't end up dead this time."
*He had walked around to the other side of the bar, taking up her hand and planting a light kiss on it before his eyes fell on Cora.*
"That weapon shall guard you with her life. Guard her well in return. Lets go."
*He headed for the door in long, quick strides, pulling his key from the rack as he spun around and faced away from the door.*
"Cora, I give you one last chance to turn back. I cannot force you to go, but I cannot also put you in danger that is unneccessary. That and you should likely shield your eyes when you go through the door, cause I know I can't stop you from going."

*winces at the idea of either of them ending up dead*
Be safe, both of ye . . .

:::Cora took one last look at Maggie, then to Aetas again:::
There has never been a time to turn back.
:::She closed her eyes, put her left arm over them to sheild them, and stuck her right hand outward slightly t allow him to guide her, if he would:::

"Right then!"
*He took her hand in his left, his fingers intertwinging with hers and holding tight. It was more than just to reassure she was there, but more of a subconscious desire to simply know she was there. Taking his key he unlocked the door and led her through, a soft light spilling into the Brink that would only intensify thirty times over, to the two anyhow, once the two passed through, the door closing behind them.*

*waits until the door closes, then drops into a seat, clasping her hands together to say a prayer for the two of them in whatever it is they're off to do*

*opens her eyes and releases her hands, then looks around the room*
*sighs slightly, folding her arms on the tabletop and resting her head on them, thinking to herself, and ends up dozing off*

*Bard fades in. he looks around, but sees the ruckus is over. He notices Maggie at the table, sleeping. He creeps over to her, removes his coat and places it over her shoulders. He goes to the bar to get a drink.*

*stirs slightly, mumbling something incoherent as her eyes flutter open* Mhhm?
*sits up, disoriented from having nodded off, then notices the coat around her, and turns her head to see Bard behind the bar*
Oh, ye've come back . . *smiles, still looking a little sleepy*

*shakes her head* Nay, 'tis alright. 'Tis better if I dinna sleep right now, else I'll be awake all night when I return home.
*runs her fingers along the collar of the coat, then pauses, thinking she should probably give it back* Here . . . *starts to slide it off her shoulders*
