Welcome to Gaia! ::

Prince Zelig von Dale



Rohan was delighted to see Galene coming their way. "Well hello, Galene. This is Zevedee I help him find work once in a while." "And I bail Rohan out when he get in over his head." The disguised prince chimed in. "I can certainly see why Rohan wanted to come tonight. Nice to meet you." "Hey, I save your hide just as often as you save mine, when I get us into trouble." Rohan quipped. "But yeah, he's a pal. Speaking of pals, why don't you go get that one you were just talking to, and the four of us go have a good time."The group only got to talk for a few moments before they heard a scream from out back.
"Hey, didn't that girl go back there?"
"LAVONIA!"

Rohan

Before Galene could said anything else to the boys, she heard the scream. She went out with them to see what she could do to help Lavonia. She wanted to light the drow on fire but he was still holding Lavonia to his body and didn't want to burn her on accident.

Eric/Mordred wasn't happy to see the people that came out to help Lavonia. He scanned through the crowd to see if he recognized anyone in it while the drunk had his say. There's that Zelig again, doesn't he know better than to bug in other people's business?!?!? Wait, why is he here than being there at the castle?!?!?That threw him for a loop for a moment but then used his webbing to tie Lav up before setting her against the tree beside him. The webbing held Lavonia to the tree and held her there."So you still don't remember me from all those years have you Lavonia? Or about your friend at the castle here? We all have changed since then in appearances in some ways." He said as he ignored the drunken hunters, looking at both Lavonia and Zelig in turn waiting to see how long it would take for them to realize how he was. He turned to look back to Lavonia and saw in her facial features that she knew.

Lavonia was taken by surprise when she felt something wrapping around her, tying her up before she found herself against the tree. She struggled to get free of the webbing but wasn't able to.Webbing!?!?!? What the... I forgot that most drows serve the spider goddess and get special powers from her. That why he's able to do that. She thought to herself as looked up after hearing the drunken hunters coming to her aid. When Eric started on his little speech, Lavonia couldn't believe what was coming out of his mouth.'How can this be?!? Can this even be possible that Eric really is Mordred from long ago?!?!?I don't want to believe he's Mordred but only he would know that ...... I think Im going to be sick... Good thing that I hadn't eaten supper yet.....'Lavonia thought as Eric/Mordred came towards her again. Her face had already paled several shades. He took the gag out of her mouth as if he knew she was going to be sick. Some stomach bile had already come up into her mouth, and once the gag was out, she spit it out at Mordred's face and landed on his face. the next thing she knew was pain across her face where Mordred back handed her hard.

Mordred wasn't wasn't expecting her to spit him in the face like she did. He back-handed hard across her face with his right hand. The leather glove that he had on his hand had small spikes on top which were sharp enough to cut the skin. Scratches appeared on her right cheek from the blow and two of them were starting to bleed slightly.Mordred looked at Lavonia with disgust and then looked back at Zelig."If you want your little singing wrench back Zelig, come and fight me one on one." He said walking off to the left of Lavonia. He wanted to fight Zelig for a long time now and now was his chance......

Nuada

Nuada got one of those feelings that something wasn't right before hearing the scream from outside.I knew that something would go wrong tonight.He thought as he exited through the same door that Lavonia had went out of earlier. He was near to Zelig, Galene, and Rohan.

"Galene, go get the guards at the outpost and bring them here."Nuada told her as before taking out one of the drunken hunters. He watched her leave out of the corner of his eyes until he couldn't see her.

Galene went to go get the guard at the outpost at the edge of the village. It didn't take long to get there and a guard was standing outside and saw her coming."What's happening?""There's a fight behind the Silver Wheel tavern with several drunk guys fighting." "We'll there right away," the guard said before going into to the guard house to get the rest of men that were in."Move out men, to the Silver Wheel." He said and the twelve men went toward the The Silver Wheel to take down the fight and throw the drunks that started the fight in jail.

Eric felt the the shockwave that came from Zelig and took his own sword of it's casing. He stood his ground, waiting Zelig to make the first move. He didn't notice or hear someone say to go get the guards because his focus on Zelig and was studying him."I have been waiting to get a chance to fight you since you made be lose my job years ago when I was trying to have some fun with Lavonia." He said, testing him, seeing if he would respond back in a rage where he could get the upper hand early on.

Lavonia could only hope that her Aunt Elena wouldn't get wind of this. She knew that Elena would try to get a place in the castle to work in order to keep her safer. She knew that it didn't work last time because of Mordred and he's back again. Lavonia heard Mordred taunting Zelig, and wonder how before Galene can get the guards here.

(DONE!)

"Really, you don't remember me? I didn't think you would but I'm sure that Lavonia remembers, don't you?" Mordred asked her without turning around to look at her.

"Yes, I do very clearly, but it wasn't until a few years later that I truely realized what you had planned to do with me. It made sick to think that men would use young girls like that. How many other girls did you molested before they were the age of ten?" She said and asked, not really expecting him to answer her question. She only hope that she was able to distract him by that question.

"I was a stable boy back then on the castle grounds. But enough talking for now and let's fight." Mordred said, not bothering to answer her question as he moved to slash his sword to injure Zelig's left leg in some way.

Mordred staggered back slightly at the force of the blow. Then had to go on the defense as Zelig went on the offense. He barely had time to block the the attack and then he tried to do the half moon technique, but it left him open and made it easier for Zelig to know it out of his hand.

Nuada took out another drunk hunter and wondered how much longer until Galene would get back with the gaurd. He remembered hearing Zelig call the red head Rohan. "Doing alright over there Rohan?" He asked as he began fighting another hunter.

(I'll bring in the guards in the next post.)

The guards arrived right as Bragg's hilt made impact with Kurt's head. It didn't seem much that they would have to do besides throwing the drunks into jail overnight. Then they saw Zelig and most of them went and form a a loose circle around the two, and then close in around them so they couldn't escape them. Eight of them were doing this while the other four were loading the drunks into their wagon to take to the jail. "We have you two surrounded, drop your weapons."

Mordred wasn't happy with how things were turning out. Everything that could go wrong, was going wrong. First of all, he should have gagged Lavonia alot sooner before she could call out for help. Then the drunk hunters and Lavonia's friends had come out to help.Next, a girl went and brought the guards over here and now he was surrounded. He knew that if he kept fighting at this point that he would be killed as he couldn't hold them all off long enough to get away."Damn it." He said before dropping his sword to the ground in defeat. There would be another day and he will succeed.Just to watch,plan, and wait for the right time to act. He thought to himself.

Once Mordred was in custody of the guards, both Galene and Nuada went over to Lavonia. Nuada had given Galene a dagger to cut Lav free while he healed the wounds on Lavonia's face. Once he was finished healing her cheek, he helped Galene cutting the webbing off Lavonia."Did he hurt you anywhere else besides your face Lavonia?" Nuada asked her as he got the last bit of webbing off her back.

"No cuts besides on my face. Probably some bruises where he grabbed me earlier." Lavonia told him with a frown on her face as she watched the guards bound Mordred's wrists together behind his back."Why didn't I realize sooner that he was Mordred Nuada? I-"

"Hush, he fooled us both Lavonia. Don't fret my loutre(otter), if anyone should be fretting, it's me. I have failed you my little one." Nuada told her, holding her in a protective hug. He wanted to say my highness but Lavonia doesn't know the truth about her her mother side of the family's history. For her own protection and hoping that Iapetos wouldn't find out about her. Nuada's main question was Mordred just acting on his own or was he a spy for Iapetos?'That's my main concern here. I need to send a message to her brother tonight. I think it is the time that we should tell her before something else like this can happen again.' He thought as he wanted to tell Lavonia the truth but couldn't without her brother's permission.

(Not done, saving what I have so far.)
