Human & Humanoid Roleplays / Re: Land of Lynthia [Remake. Open and Accepting!]

((No worries! XD I did the same, so that makes us about even now, huh?))

Noah caught Raven's approach out the corner of his eye, and let his hands drop to his sides as she drew nearer. He was pleased to find she was looking considerably more well-rested, which was a good thing since this traveling would probably take its toll on both of them. It would be twice as bad if one or both of them were still fatigued. The mage's comment made him chuckle, and he grinned slyly at her. "It would not be hard, dear Raven, given the time of day and how quiet it is. But would you believe, even I have boundaries." He looked back to the young mare, who's dark eyes were now peering at Raven curiously. "This is a fine horse, and she no doubt has formed a bond with her owner, as most men and horse do. To steal her would be to yank her away from the one she trusts wholeheartedly, and I have neither the time nor the patience to gain her trust this time round." Noah ran his hand gently down the delicate bridge of the mare's nose, before he turned fully to Raven, and gestured to the entrance she had just come through, indicating that they should get on.

With his small satchel upon his back, the mercenary thief began to head in that direction himself, squinting slightly from the glare of the rising sun. "I suppose you're wanting to know more about this intrepid quest of ours," he commented as they came to the entrance of the stables, which is where he turned towards the West. Over the looming trees of the Lynthia forest, the peaks of the tallest Skien mountains could be seen, their tips spear-heading the few clouds forming in the morning sky. He thought it would be about time to explain to Raven what this task actually involved, and where they would be heading.

((Short, I'm sorry! Will get better, hopefully when they start traveling my posts will lengthen.))

((Bumping just to prevent the RP from getting swamped by other topics on the forum!))

Carina had indeed been listening to the conversation shared between Raven and Noah, almost completely flummoxed as to what was going on. She had noticed that Alistair had the intentions of slipping away, and attempted to stop him with what most people would consider an intimidating expression and some harsh words, but it did not work. The elf-man had gotten away, and the ginger-haired young lady returned to the side of her steed and mounted him swiftly, waiting for Raven to finish speaking with the unfamiliar mercenary thief before she headed off. However, she was rather relieved when the mage finally returned to her, and offered the small piece of parchment that had been in her possession.

"Thank you, Raven," she said with a nod of her head, taking the parchment and slipping it into a small pouch attached to her saddle. "I will do just that, the crimes that man has committed will not go unpunished. Thank you for all your trouble, safe travels to you and, uh... him." Carina cast a chilling gaze over the male, eyeing him up for one last time, before she turned her gelding and nudged him into an easy canter, heading back towards the castle.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Clasping his hands behind his back once more, Noah gave a decided nod of his head. "That settles that, then. See you bright and early tomorrow morning, my dear Raven." With a mock bow accompanied by his trademark fox-ish smirk, the mercenary thief spun smartly on his heel and began to head back to Zale. His hand rested on his rondel blade as he walked, sharp blueish eyes scouring every inch of the trodden path and beyond for any sign of danger. But like his trip to the clearing, he made it back safe and sound, and made his way to the inn bar for some refreshments, and even food if he was lucky. After that, it was sleep, no matter how early it was. Noah had a tendency to sleep for about four hours every couple of nights (a habit that had extended for so long it was rare for it to affect his health now days), and he believed he should catch up while he could.

~! TIME SKIP  !~

Just like he had hoped, Noah roused himself from a slumber no less than half an hour before dawn broke across the horizon. Glad that his body clock was still in check after being out of commission for a few days, the mercenary thief slipped quietly out of bed and dressed himself appropriately. In the corner of his room lay a small satchel, all it contained was a decent amount of money that should provide for both him and Raven if needed, as well as one or two personal items that he wouldn't dare leave behind anywhere. With the small weight of the satchel on his shoulders, and the familiar weight of his rondel blade around his waist, he felt ready enough to set out and wait for Raven.

Creeping silently down the stairs to the bar, Noah found that the innkeeper was not yet awake. Out of the kindness of his own heart (no, more because he needed to loose a tiny bit of weight in this satchel), Noah left an adequate amount of money behind the bar for the innkeeper, and then saw himself out. 

It didn't take long to locate the stables, the tell-tale smells of leather and hay were enough to go by. While he was waiting, the mercenary thief slipped down the U-shaped aisle with the stables set around the outside, admiring the various steeds as he passed by. There was one mare in particular that snagged his attention, still young-looking with a bit of fire in her. She had a beautiful dark coat, obvious well-kept with the gloss it emitted, and almost equally as dark eyes. Extending a hand, Noah allowed the mare to sniff at it before she lowered her head slightly for petting. Typically Noah wasn't too great with animals, but horseback had been a regular mode of transport for him, and he felt confident with the small amount of experience he had.

((Ah, I see >.< I'm sure we can carry on by ourselves! I'm officially retiring Carina for the moment, she might pop back up later, I'm not sure at this stage.))

Though outwardly, Noah appeared confident, he had been uncertain as to whether Raven would accept his offer or not. The mage, naturally, had every right to decline everything he had said and turn her back on him, whether or not she owed him a favour. So when the female did agree to help, there was a small surge of relief that coursed through the mercenary thief. This officially put his plan into motion, and now that he had the added help of Raven, he was sure they could not fail this task.

"Fantastic," Noah said, grinning his somewhat devious grin. "I see no point in beating around the bush, I'd like to set out as soon as we possibly can. I will give you the rest of today to gather any belongings you might need and recuperate, and set out at dawn tomorrow. I will be traveling on foot, it's up to you whether you acquire another mode of transport or not." The male glanced over at Carina's steed with an expression akin to envy, before his attention returned to the mage. "We leave from Zale tomorrow. I'm spending a night in the inn, so around that general area is a good place to meet, yes?" Noah didn't want to waste time, nor did he want Raven to be without any details on how they were starting this journey. Getting this task over and done with sooner rather than later was the best option, for the job had already been pushed aside for far too long.

((Clearly, I'm terrible at splitting my time between school, non-forum RPing, and family commitments XD Sorry for the late response, I hope to post later on today!))

((Thanks, Katsa! I'd like to keep her for now, there might be something for her to do in the near future, we'll see.))

Giving a small nod of his head, Noah unfolded his arms and followed Raven off to the side slightly, acknowledging the male and female remaining with the merest of glances. It was clear he had sparked an interest in the mage, this was already going better than he had thought. He had been expecting to use more of his persuasion skills before she even decided to listen to him, so the results in his mind were positive so far.

"Lucky for you, the task at hand doesn't require us spending social time together, which is somewhat unfortunate. I need your help with something, a favour if you like. I have a client that I'm currently doing a job for, one that's been put on hold for quite a while now. But this is a job that's quite different from others I have done before, and it requires a certain ability that I do not possess. I need your magic to aid me in getting through a series of gates, ones that are spell-bound and impossible to pass through without a mage at-hand. As I have already assured, there will be a reward for your efforts." Noah spoke with every air of confidence about him, but inwardly he was slightly concerned over whether the mage would accept or not. Of course, she was not the only magic-user he was familiar with, but she was the only one who owed him a favour.

"More will be revealed about this task if you accept," he added, "but if not, I won't speak anymore of it."

((For the moment, I'm only going to RP Noah until I can think of an excuse for Carina to excuse herself. For the moment, I suppose it's safe to assume she's slightly puzzled about Noah's appearance, and she's listening to him and Raven converse.))

Raven's sarcasm towards Noah was rather amusing, and the mercenary thief folded his arms loosely across the broad planes of his chest with a smirk. "I would stand back and look pretty, but I'm afraid I would only further distract you from your conversation with your companions." He spared a glance at the royal-blooded female, and the young man he recognised from the inn, the one with the glowing red marks etched into his skin. "I'm here for business, not pleasure. Though I'm sure we could have both, dear Raven." Noah strode forward from his spot at the fringes of the clearing, bringing himself into the group. Their matters would have to wait for the moment, his were more important. And judging from what he could hear of the conversation, all they were doing was trying to negotiate with the mercenary in their company, surely that could be swept aside for the moment.

"I didn't anticipate on running into you, quite honestly. But it's convenient that I have. I have a proposition for you, one that comes with reward for both you and I. Better still, the reward will be of your choosing, so long as it is within reason. How does that strike you so far?" One way or another, Noah was confident in his abilities to get Raven on his side for this task. He hated to admit it, but he needed her.

((Short, but will most likely lengthen once I get back into the rhythm.))

((I. Am. So. Sorry. I'm here, absolutely here, I promise you. And I'm posting after I get back from school >.< With the absence of... most of the RP, I'm most likely going to drop Carina as a character, or sweep her off to the side for a little while because I don't know if it's necessary to have her or not anymore. Noah, however, will be staying, as you well know for the plot line we had in mind. Okay, I have to go, but I'll be back, with a post!))

((In summary... Noah followed Raven and Carina to where they meet Alistair. Raven, Carina and Alistair have talked, and Noah's just been discovered. We also have a new member, but she's not yet involved in the immediate plot. A change in story line will be occurring soon. Welcome back! :3))
