"Of course." Khastur helped pick up the Valtera and slung him over the back of the horse with Sylph before jumping onto his own. "Lead the way Flaus, and fast, we can keep up."
Flaus sighed, "You humans, always in such a hurry.." with this she lead the pack and charged down through the path.

Issildia easily swung up behind Khastur on the horse a matter of seconds before they departed, the wolves leading the way and the light of dawn beginning to filter through the lifeless branches of the skeletal trees above them.
"So, how did you come to know a wolf." asked Issildia with a slightly dry tone as they continued through the forest.

Khastur put his head down, looking at the horse's mane "I uh...I don't know. But she tells me I raised her, that I was a boy of nature in the day..Maybe I forgot my memories on purpose, how could someone who loved nature live in the desert?" Khastur sighed, smiling. "How much farther Flaus?" Flaus looked back "Not much farther now.."

Issildia laughed slightly at this, "Perhaps so, and perhaps not, we can't make assumptions until we know for certain the reasons in which you found yourself in the Aldrene with little memory of your past self...still I'm surprised, it seems that this Marley character lives far closer that I anticipated, but then again we never really knew where he actually resided, I suppose it was a fortunate folly that we traveled east anyway." she muttered to herself.

His eyes would open thinly to the sound of hooves as they echoed to his ears as well as the soft thuds they made upon the ground. His vision was blurred, though through it he could tell he was moving. He gazed up slightly seeing the form of someone in the saddle beside him. Unable to make out who it had been, he tried to move but to no avail. His body was sore and tired stiff from the earlier battle against the wolves. He felt lightheaded as his vision blacked ocne more before returning, feeling light-headed. He took no notice of his healed shoulder, his body numb and sore. His vision faded once more as he fell into unconciousness once more.

"This may seem off-topic Issildia but--your father is very powerful I've seen, and has command of many magikers-- is there a magic do you think, that could give back; or take away your memories?" Khastur had sidled next to Issildia now, he didn't want anyone to hear this.

"Memories...they can not be taken, but they can be hidden within the layers of the subcoucious..." she said softly. "If that is what you asking, if it is possible for my father or any of his arch mages to be capable of this; then yes Khastur, it is very possible...Though it would be rather easy for any mildly talented Nazuren to do so just a easily." she added.
"The reverse is also true, memory can be restored by those of a particular skill, but memory can also be fabricated as well." she said gravely.

(Sorry i was on and off, I was just watching a movie called "Stay", really good.)
Khastur hung his head "I see...I'll just have to make my own then.." Khastur nodded slowly before looking up to see a wooden cabin in the distance with a large cloaked men walking towards it carrying wood. "Well, It's showtime...Let me and Flaus do the talking and we'll get through this fine."

Marley looked behind him to see a company riding up on horseback. "They just can't leave me be, can they?"

(((No problem, I was finding a new flash video at youtube.com)))
Issildia looked at Khastur skeptically as they approached the one that they had sought. Her hand going absently to the hilt of her blade, though not in a gesture of threat, it was simply second nature to do so.
"Good luck then." she said with an edge of sarcasm as they approached the blacksmith.

Marley looked to Flaus in frustration "You have brought strangers to my home Flaus, I don't remember doing this to you-- so why do you think you could do this?" Flaus laid back her ears "One of them is not a stranger Marley, in fact it's your son."
Khastur nearly fell off of his horse as Marley equally lost his balance, firewood falling to the ground. "My father?!" "Khastur!?" came out in tandem from the pair. Flaus nodded "Marley, your son needs you now." Khastur snapped to attention, to his senses "Um, right! Marley...I am fighting in the war against Reinsen Nevar-- and I need you to forge me a weapon that could kill him." This was certainly all coming out fast
Marley stood there for a moment "But I don't-- Um, please, come inside."

Khastur whispered to Issilidia "Well, Excuse me! I just happen to have been told this seven foot tall mountain man is my father! I'm a bit shaken up!" Khastur got off of his horse and followed Marley into his house, after drinking some tea he decided to get back to business. "So, will you do it?" Marley nodded "Such a thing takes time, but if it really has to be done-- then there is no time for me to beat around the bush. Give me three days, and you will all have weapons fit to slay anything in your paths."
Khastur looked to Issildia, he was not sure how much time he had. Marley looked to Issildia as well, "Miss...And you are?"

Issildia looked at Khastur with slightly worried glance at the question before she answered.
She had been in situations like this before, and often times many people would confront her with fear or even hatred at the mention of her name, still she preferred to get the whole ordeal over with anyway. It wasn't her style to lie to allies anyway.
Finally she met Marley's steely gaze, "Issildia Nevar..." she said carefully.

Marley looked confused "I have been here a long time, now I understand the war is against Reinsen Nevar-- but you're a Nevar..." Marley scratched his head, "Could you explain?"

"I'm his daughter..." she said with distaste. "Exiled when my mother and myself fled the kingdom of Larovia to find safe haven in Anier."
She paused briefly before continuing, "My father destroyed the only home that I ever knew, and murdered my mother...I think that gives me reason enough to aid in his defeat." Issildia uttered tightly.
"Distrust is something that I have grown accustomed to, if you would rather me not be here then I will leave." she said bluntly.
