"you're not getting a lecture. I know what was going on, and why you took off. foolish to go weaponless perhaps, but you had valid reason to get you and her out of here as quick as you pleased."
Back at the stables, Letting Nightmare snort at Keely and move over to tend to her foals. of course Nightmare didn't trust anyone. and that included Malik. But as for him he went inside, glancing at Sevilin.
"The ladies are home again. all is well, no need to worry about someone trying to shove a dagger in your back as soon as they see you, considering your condition."

Zahara grew silent on that last leg of their impromptu walk, and as soon as the crossed through the gates of Triumverate, she was down off Serino and heading inside. Today had been hell to her and she just didn't want to play anymore. Malik had thoroughly confused her with all his talk and upset her and she made her way inside, walked to the dining room and unceremoniously plopped back down in her vacated chair, grabbed her book and opened it and began studying once again. She never once looked at Sevilin, never spoke to him either, she couldn't abide males right now.

Normally she would of had to make a sarcastic comment and his not wanting to lecture on her, though he did hit the main points of going out sans any defense or offense at all was quite the stupid move on her part. She agreed with it. "Very well then." But she slipped down off of Serino who treaded back into the stables, hey that had been a nice reprieve for him so he hadn't minded at all. Though Keely was quick to make her exit of the place and back inside. Didn't want Nightmare on her case. But easily enough Piper followed Malik and Zahara inside, only to end back up near an...odd Sevilin.
Sevilin's eyes moved up to look to the little band of elves that made thier entrance once more. Joy, peaceful quiet time would be shattered now. Though he did glance more so at Zahara as she plopped down and took to her books, apparently not putting up a fight about it. Well bravo, Malik got her to be compliant.
Though his eyes moved to Malik and his surface trash tag along that never ever seemed to just go away. Yes, her being in range of his sight, hearing, or smell, was just overly irritating to him. But he'd keep his thoughts to himself. "Who said worry was in the forefront of my mind? I don't intend anyone sneaking up behind me in this place."

A slight chuckle.
"And in your present state, who said they'd even have to sneak up on you? Or is there a rune in there to stave off reverie without any adverse effects as well as cure the effects of an obviously horrid one? You have the same look of a human who just went three days without sleep."

Oh that got somewhat of a glare. "Must you honestly compare me to a human?" Wow, that was quite the insult. Stupid little humans he did not take any joy in being compared to at all. He'd been exposed to them enough to loathe them too. If anything because they were quite fragile and limited beings.
"Runes are fickle things, and thus so, there is never one that just simply does what you want it to do. It's a combination deal." Truly. they were never technically one symbol...thus explained his little scribbling bouts of runes as Zahara studied. "And I'm quite able to take care of myself, despite how it may appear." Eh. he'd had worse days.
Piper rolled her eyes. Men. Why did they have to think they were big and bad all the time. Though she'd admit, seeing Sevilin's physical self looking so really horrid, she was taking secret pleasure in. He deserved it in her book...teach him some humility and perhaps set his thinking straight. Malik had mentioned it himself. She wasn't a pet, and she wasn't manipulating Malik himself. No surface elf would stand the Underdark as long as she had for sheer manipulation purposes. "Or you mean to say that you 'have eyes in the back of your head or all over the place'." Yes she quoted the air as she said it, implying that she knew what he was up to in this place.
Bite your tongue Sevilin, don't snap at the surface trash or what she's implying. "I mean to say I'm Drow. So very unlike you." Said with that underlying venom in his voice, damnable surface elves.

Did we have to fight? Hadnt' we just stopped fighting? She shook her head and rolled her eyes, "Well you two just stop it? Please? Some of us are actually trying to do things here that require concentration." She looked at Malik, "Stop poking at him, go be an a** somewhere else and you two just need to quit. It's fairly obvious you don't like her and the feeling is mutual, so don't go near each other. If some idiots," a glare at Malik, "would stay away certain people wouldn't get so upset and life might be a little more peaceful." It was said rather soflty and not irritated at all, more in the vein of repeating facts. And then as though she'd said nothing at all she turned back to her book and resumed studying.

Aella rolled her shoulder, comming down the path. Upkeep of a ship was more work than she had thought, but no less exciting then she had imagined.
"You're luckey we're moored not far off, otherwise, no I wouldn't be here"
She walked past him, grabbing his wing and pulling him along with her. "But you don't want to stay here. A rather...angry green dragon likes to haunt this part. And if he catches you, he won't ask questions."

Malik only shrugged lightly.
"I do have some buisness to attend to. I'm expecting a delivery from Andal. but I am not being, as you put it, an a** for commenting on the well being of someone I am paying to do certain things. like be battle ready and to be able to teach you."
A look over at Piper.
"As for Piper...well...they can deal with it as they need to. might be interesting to watch."
A slight chuckle, knowing that she had some kind of card up her sleeve..and woudl probably love to spring it.
Onyx let her drag him along. rather enjoing it. her hand on his sensative wings and feathers. of course where they met at the shoulders was teh most sensative part, but this works. green dragon..? wasn't that the Oracle's bodyguard? why would he be pis--oh.
"She's missing, isn't she."

"For a few days now, I believe."
First bend in the path, but she kept going. Dragons had noses like you wouldn't believe. "Tanundra is crazy right now. He's been attacking the castle, the onyl thing holding that place up right now is it's magic, which is disipating now that the Drow abandond it."

"Reminds me of my father when Nailah was in trouble. or mother for that matter."
He just went along for now.
"What's your plan then? if he blames your captian, then he's not going to stop with just the castle. he'll come after the ship, he'll scour this whole place for him. Nothing short of Roarke is going to bring him to heel."

"Roarke can't do anything against Tanundra. In terms of brute strength, not even the Lich can hurt him. But it doesn't matter, for the moment he's not left this area, and he's too disoriented to single any one person out just yet. We'll worry about that if and when we come to that."
"For now, everyone is going to have too look after themseleves. Because when Tanundra gains a bit of sanity, he might go after Deep Water. or Honorsfield, or the fortress. He won't discriminate."

"well..I was thinking more of a he's family, he can calm him down kinda thing. Or at least maybe invoke his sister to get him under control?"
Then a littel bit more thought.
"Then we need to get farther away faster, correct?"
And he just scooped her up, a couple bounding steps and airborne.
"Just give me directions, I can get us there faster then you can walk and with less drain than your nifty play toy."
Not to mention I get to hold you agasint me and I rather like that.

"Tanundra isn't bound to the male succession as he is the female." She sqeeled when he picked her up, not particularily liking being caught off gaurd. She had no choice buit to throw her arms around his neck, her staff clutched behind his head.
"It's not a toy, it's a serious weapon."
"Alaran may help. Perhaps we should take a trip to see Roarke."
She pointed south. "A bit farther down the coast."

A slight chuckle.
"All weapons are playtoys when yours are built in."
But a lean and a bit of flapping to catch the thermals, and down the coast they went to the south.
"So. other than the disapperance of the Oracle...how have things been? smooth sailing? and did you enjoy the seafood I was able to gather up?"

That got a raised eyebrow from Piper to Malik. He was expecting what now? She didn't recall that. Yes, things that came through that gate were more or less shared knowledge between the two. About the only business endevour or aspect they actively kept tabs on together. "Do you now?" Though her attention filtted back to Zahara and Sevilin, one was pissy, and the other was just all blah. Oh what fun company. Though her look had gone to Zahara a moment then she more or less was staring down Sevilin. "Well this is my home, no need to take any guff from him in my own home, now is there?"
He only chuckled lightly as Zahara decided to speak up some. "Looks like she's actually taking part in her studies now and is being serious about it." Of course he had to say something, but that was all he said before he had looked to Malik as well. What, let himself and the surface trash fight? Oh by all means, he'd take that.
She waited a moment to see if Sevilin was going to fight her then and there on this issue, but it seemed not. So attention back to Zahara. "When you're done with your studies, I want you to come find me. Okay?"
