A tall drowess walked down the street towards the small house she owned herself. The eldest daughter of the second house of Llurth Dreir was on her way to another meeting she was to have with her... benefactor. She was interested to hear what news Mica had for her. It had been a bit since their last meetings and she had possible news for him too. Trailing behind her was a patrol of her guards, which took up their positions as she entered her little house she had for these meetings. Her steps took her to the back room where she sat down. Though Burryna felt the need to pace almost. Her mind was almost racing, trying to think of how to phrase the news she had for Mica. Though it was only an assumption, though it was something she'd have to tell him anyway. This possible development would push one of her decisions forward in time, she needed to be matron of her house and soon. In the end, she deciding against he pacing, and opted to sit on the edge of the bed waiting for Mica to arrive.

Micarreth Meandered y through the streets. His mind distracted as he nursed a sore shoulder. It wasn't broken. Just bruised up and a inconvinence to the little velguk. When he reached the house that was his destination, he didn't bother to give a glance over his shoulder and merely let himself in. If Burryna had not planned on his end the last time he was here, he doubted she'd be plotting now. So it was with a lowered guard that he wandered his way yup to the room they normally met in. Hopefully today she'd accept just talking and plotting. Micarreth's current mood did not support any sort of extra curricular activities this night.
"Burryna?" He called out as he pushed the door open. He did have a bit to report though. Starting with the change in his wardrobe. He had discarded the basic rusted brown cloths for a much more comfortable black fabric. His scarf blazed in beautiful contrast now, and he could not help but lift his chin just a bit. He had not cut his hair, as she had seemed to like it a bit longer, and he felt like he was shaping up very well into a presentable young drow. Hopefully one aestentically pleaseing enough to be accepted as her future patron.

Burryna hadn't any plans to end Mica any time soon at least. She wasn't very much concerned on him turning on her, not with his house's current situation. The thoughts of what she was thinking of reporting to him ran through her head, finally deciding on what she'd tell him. She knew that now her mother would need to be dealt with, more sooner then her last thinkings. Currently she hadn't thought of acting on more then just discussing news.
Her ears pricked up as she heard name called out, by Mica, she knew his voice by now. Rose eyes looked up from where she was sitting on the bed, noting the differences from the last time they met. The change of color was noted lightly, though the contrasting was pleasing. Buryna was glad he had kept his scarf and the longer hair, oh she did like that longer hair. "Why hello Mica. I'm interested to hear what news you have." Her hand patted next to her, in gesture to have him sit. She looked him up and down again and she grinned. "I'm glad, you kept your hair longer. So news?" Her hand ran through his hair almost absentmindedly.

Micarreth crossed over to seat himself upon the bed next to Burryna. He reached up with a hand to rub at his shoulder though. Easeing the small knotting there, he nodded his head at the older female.
"I did say I'd keep it this length didn't I? Maybe I'll get it to grow a little bit longer though. I rather like the idea of having enough hair to up up into a pony tail on top of my head." Mica lifted a hand to run his fingers through the back of his hair.
"Hmm..reports...yes...well.... My meeting with the mage went poorly. He turned things about on me and I was fairly fortunate to get out of the room unsacthed and untouched." Mica's face wrinkled with a display of unhappiness.
"He seems physicaly intersted in me still reguardless of the fact it's known I have no interest or intention of doing anything with him. Still I did manage to come away with something." Micarreth choose to omit the information about the ring once again. There was really no reason for her to know about that failure after all..
"We've agreed on an exchange of information. I'm going to teach him a bit about poisons...and he is going to teach me some obscure velguk spells. I honestly think I'm coming out better in this deal. Once I have the magic to aid me then I think I will be prepared for any task you wish to set for me."

Burryna's head turned as she watched him sit and rub his shoulder. Her brow rose at the action. "You did, glad you listened to my suggestion though." She listened to his report about the mage, and her brow rose higher. "Though your shoulder seems to be hurt. How did he turn things about on you?"
She twitched a bit at the fact that the mage was interested in him. "Perhaps you could get his attention on something else. As you know, I don't like to share..." They had discussed the other meeting about her jealously.
"That is good, that you are going to get more from him then you must teach him." Burryna's hand ran through his hair once again, she was rather liking that. "Speaking of poisons, I think we should start to discuss that one you suggested for my mother." The poison would be the only choice, she thought, thinking of the new time restraints she had yet to discuss.

"Neh...he seemed to know I was trying to decieve him. I don't know much about magic so it was a stupid mistake I made. He'll be changeing that though, with the lessons and all. Plus I was damn lucky he didn't just kill me outright." His head shook slightly at Burryna. "I'm not going to discourage his interest in me, that is what saved me from being killed by him. If he didn't have a interest in me, at least physically, he'd have done away with me. So long as I know he wants me, at least in part, I can count on him not pulling something to kill me. I'll just have to be careful not to lead him on or tempt him in our future meetings." Reguardless of Burryna's jealousy, Micar thought it was best to keep the mage as he was. Of course, he had no desire to give Burryna's jealousy anything to burn upon, so he'd certainly be careful that -nothing- happened that was questionable. "YOu know I'm only interested in you Burryna."
Micar looked at Burryna as he considered her shoulder comment. "Eh? This wasn't from him. This was from the weapons master I've been training with. This is actually pretty good. usually I have another two sore spots at least. I've managed to avoid a lot of his blows. He isn't too happy about that. He wants me to stand and deflect, but I really prefer not letting someone smack me around like a rock."
With the poison brought up, Micar nodded his head once more. "I have the ingrediants for it, and I've managed to find a pretty good lab in the lower levels to work with. I can have it made for you in three or four days. Should I have it delivered to you by a courier?"

"You should do research more next time before you try and deceive another. But it sounds like you can learn some helpful stuff..." She nodded her head before continuing to speak. "Well I guess if it helps to continue lessons of whatever he may teach you. He probably shouldn't know anything about our own meetings either." Burryna would have to try to get use to the idea that it would be best to share a bit, but if anything did happen, hopefully he'd just spare her the details. "Just don't let him mark you in anyway, that I consider my job." A small grin spread across her face.
She chuckled as she listened to him talk of his weapons training. "That is good, I like to see that. My weapons master will be glad to know that as well. We should perhaps spare sometime Mica, I'm interested to see you fight."
"Good. I'd rather collect it myself, I don't trust anyone else enough with even knowing of the poison or that something was sent to me. I'm glad that it is close to ready." Her eyes glanced around the room for a moment before settling back on Mica. "There is a possible recent... development that I am concerned about. She needs to be gone before she, or any other of my house, learns of this news."

"I did not exactly have time to research. I only had two days, and one of those days was spent working on the assissination." Micarreth grumbled definatly at what he viewed as a rebuke. Lately all he seemed to get were comments on his rashness or lack of patcience. It really was irksome. Still, he did bite down on his tongue. It would do him no good to snap at the female that was going to pull him up in station. "You are right though. I am looking forwards to learning these other spells. Perhaps some concealment or silence spells. I am not sure what I will be taught."
Micarreth nodded his head when mention was made of how pleased her weapons master would be. not that he was overly interested in pleaseing or appealing to him. Micarreths mind was drifting to other things. Though it did snap back to proper attention when the poison was once again brought up.
"I'll have it prepared and...hmm...well I will just drop it off here. So you can pick it up whenever you are ready for it. I am always seen visiting you empty handed, no reason to start people wondering now why I have a gift of bottles for you..." Development? Micar's head tilted to look at Burryna questioningly. "Do they suspect you are up to something Burryna?"

"Well hopefully you know for the next time you meet with this mage." Burryna noted the way he had spoken, but didn't mention it. "Spells can be very useful, if he is good, he should teach you some good stuff. Would you know what house he was from?"
Burryna sighed for a moment and brought her hand up to the side of her own face. "Good, perhaps when you drop it off, you could explain to me once more how it works and how long it should take." When he looked at her, she laid back against the bed, looking up as to not make eye contact. She almost laughed at his comment about gifts, she certainly didn't leave empty handed one of the last times. Her arm subconsciously draped itself across her midsection. "No, no one of concern does suspect. Though they will if they find out that I am with child.."

"I honestly never considered using magic before. He was the one that told me that there were spells meant to be used by a velguk. I am wondering if maybe this isn't common knowledge? If it isn't then I think that these spells are what give the greatest velguk's their edge, which would mean that i will eventually become one of the greatest." Of course he already knew he would be, but still! Weilding magic as deadly as his own poisoned weapons? The very thought sent tingles through his spine!
"I'll be sure to give you very explicit instructions concerning the poison once it is done. It isn't too hard to use or understand. What makes it difficult is administering it within the time frame. It takes a lot of planning on your part to make certain she gets each dose." The laughter from Burryna was...confusing, and Micar tilted his head to look at her as she laid back on the bed.
At first he didn't...quite get it. It really wasn't his fault after all. Micarreth was quite young in compare to Burryna. He assumed she had plenty of other male toys to while away her time when she wasn't with him. It was commonly the females place and right to use whatever male she wished, and damned be his own thoughts on the matter. Micar's nose wrinkled a little, and his brow rose. "With child? That's going to be a bit of a problem for us don't you think? I don't like the idea of some other male thinking he's going to get my place just because he gives you a daughter... What stupid male went and got you impregnanted anyways?"

Burryna nodded as he spoke, normally not all professions did use magic but some use little. "Spells are always good enhancements, perhaps those spells he knows were not traditionally used by velguk but have been adapted to their use." She herself always enjoyed the sense magic brought to one, that power.
"That is good, I have a good understanding of my mothers schedule throughout her day, so I hope it will not be much of a challenge. I will be sure that she gets each dose on time."
Oh she had had other males before but as of late, they were not very much her taste. Since her meetings with Mica, she hadn't been with any of the males of her house or the ones that would throw themselves at her. Burryna rolled her eyes and scoffed. "Yes, which is why I need my mother out of the way. No one is going to take your place." She leaned up and looked into his eyes, her face just a few inches from his. "That 'stupid male' would be you. You are the child's father Mica."

Whatever they had been talking about before...it -really- no longer mattered. Micarreth blinked his amber eyes at Burryna in dumbstruck silence. The very first thing he wanted to ask, How did she know? But the question would have been incredibly insulting. Not to mention dangerouse. Micarreth knew a few things about women, besides how nicely shaped their pert bottoms could be and how soft and jiggly their tops were. And that was, to question a female about her decision about whome the father was of her offspring was to invite a whipping.
Micarreths eyes dropped down to Burryna's flat stomach and he felt a lump form in his throat. Lloth please....let it be a girl.... He knew well enough the horror stories of what happened to males that fathered sons. He knew for a fact that his father had spent eight days in pure agony over his own birth, and he was only a second son! Or...was that the first son? He never had been able to get that answer out of Mas.
Still! A child! "Well...I guess we need to make you a Matron quickly...I'll...get the poison ready and here in two days." Was it too late to pray for it to be a girl? When was the gender of a baby determined? Was he doomed or blessed before he already knew it? Micarreth felt a little light headed with the various emotions flickering through him at the moment. Well...now he definatly had two things up on Mas...The first being he had actually had sex while, to his knowledge, his brother didn't even touch himself...and now...he seemed to be having a child first.
"Maybe it took so quickly because I'm on top..."
Micarreths eyes widened as he realized his thought had slipped from his lips, and a heat of blush burned at his cheeks.

Burryna watched Mica in silence, he only blinked and she noticed he was still breathing. He really had seemed surprised that she said that he was the father. Of course she would know who the child's father was. It would have been insulting for him to ask how she did know, but she was more concerned that she would have been embarrassed with that answer. How would she have worded that he was the only one to share her bed since they meet.
She was still watching him when she noticed his eyes drop to look at her stomach, wondering what he was thinking. Herself was hoping for a girl, how would it look if the new matron of the second house had a son first. Though sons had their uses she suspected, a daughter would be very much better.
Her head nodded up and down in response first. "That is why I called you here, the sooner the better to get the poison. I'll be here in two days to get the poison from you then." She hoped that there would be enough time to rid her house of her mother before anything started to... show.
Burryna's eyes narrowed some at his next words, had he really just said that? His widening eyes told her that he did indeed. "Maybe I won't let you be on top anymore." She laughed some at his blush though. "Just be glad you hadn't said that somewhere public..."

Now that he was released from his mind numbed surprise, Micarreth was already in the middle of trying to figure out just how soon they could do away with Burryna's matron. She had to be Matron quickly after all. Perhaps, even if she had a son, perhaps if he helped her quickly obtain this it would not matter to her.
"The dose's must be adminstered every two tendays... that is at least twice a month if we work it down to every fiftenn days. With six doses to be given, it would take at least three months for the effects. More or less. There is nothing against giving it to her sooner...so if you can manage to get the doses to her more quickly....but I am not certain about her scedual... I would suggest slipping a few doses into family meals. Since there is no immediate side effect for taking the poison you won't have to worry about killing yourself or anyone else. The effect of the poison is a gradual growth within the body. Thats is why it takes six doses to kill someone..."
Micarreth leaned back on the bed, his eyes focusing on the ceiling as he attempted to recall more details about the poison he had been studying. " When the poison takes effect, it causes the windpie and tongue to swell up. It causes suffocation, so she won't be able to call for help or cast a spell. Plus, with her throat closed up she won't be able to drink a anti-toxin if she manages to figure out what it was that is effecting her. I believe it takes a good five or so minutes to kill her too, so it won't be a pleasent death. I'd suggest trying to give her the last dose sometime when she'll be alone so no one can try to help her."

At this point, Burryna wasn't to concerned with the child's gender, first her mother had to be out of the way. Later, she could hope for a daughter but as of now it wasn't something she was going to think on. Right now, she needed to secure her house.
Her head nodded as he spoke of the poison, three months wasn't what she had really wanted to hear. Though he had said that it could be given sooner, which would be less time. She really wanted to get this done before anything started to really show, that would be when others would get suspicious. "The quicker I can get her out of the way, the better. Perhaps, you should only drop off the first three doses, that way if anyone were to happen upon them, it won't be so suspicious. After she is given those, we will meet again and I will get the rest from you. Though I don't like the idea of taking any of this myself, would there be any effects on the child."
Burryna turned her head and looked over at Mica when he leaned back. "Those are convenient side effects. I will be sure that she will take it when no one is around to help her."
