We are in Eaglecrest, preparing for the tournament.

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305188

>>305185
I think I was going to see Celaire

Verne [Trickster] 305190

Could we time travel a bit?

Unless Venus can automatically learn a new spell of her choosing

DM 305194

>>305188
He is browsing the Hall of Champions
"Ah, my sun. How do you like this place so far?"
>>305190
She can learn it, or we can RP through a bit of the past in a flashback if you want.

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305197

Brownout, sorry.
>>305185
I had just shown Peaches the drawing.

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305198

>>305194
"Not bad, if a bit brutal at times. I like their spirit, but they really don't seem to have much apart from fighting."

DM 305199

>>305197
She tries to snag it
'1d8'
>>305198
"That seems to be what their culture respects most. Their history has shaped them into fighters, and they continue those traditions out of necessity and honour."

Roll #1 3 = 3

Verne [Trickster] 305200

>>305194
How much is there to do in eaglecrest?

Considering my times it may be wiser to auto it

305202

>>305199
"Hey, don't fuss over it! What's to hide?"
Hold onto it.

Roll #0 4 = 4

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305204

>>305199
"I already had a fight. It was pretty fun. I was even invited to dinner!"

DM 305205

>>305200
You can explore the notable locations, try to talk to King Ebonreth, and then there is the tournament.
>>305202
"Well…
…it's not a very good drawing."
>>305204
He raises an eyebrow
"And did you accept?"

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305206

>>305205
Give her a soft smile and hoof her over the drawing.
"How long ago was it?"

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305207

>>305205
"Of course, I don't know where the restaurants are around here! I wanted to go with you though, that's why I came to find you. Maybe we can make some friends here!"

Verne [Trickster] 305208

>>305205
Let's auto it. We can revisit it another time. I'll leave it to her what she wants to learn.

Go look at their hall of champions.

DM 305209

>>305206
"…over ten years…
…before you ran off"
>>305207
He shrugs
"Sure, why not. I could always use a meal. When are we going?"
>>305208
She has learned Storm Bolt
Welcome to the hall. It is filled with the wargear of fallen heroes of this nation, as well as descriptions of their deeds.

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305210

>>305209
"Uhh, we didn't really set a time, I just told him we'll meet him by the training grounds."

305212

>>305209
She does have protective bubble like a spellsword would, right? If not, I'd rather she get that, I keep assuming she does

Roll to see a good exhibit.

Roll #0 7 = 7

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305214

>>305209
Move beside her and put a wing over her back.
"Thank you partner."
Nuzzle her nose gently.
"We got a while. It's a big city. Wanna do anything?"

DM 305217

>>305212
Right. Changed.
You find an exhibit of a notably less warriorlike pony.
[Silvertonge, champion and adviser of Old King Ironstrike.
-Defeated ten assassins in single combat
-Defended the king after an honourless opponent poisoned him
-Secured the return of a large chunk of stolen land from the griffons with sword and word alike]
>>305210
"Very well, should we go right away then?"
>>305214
She looks at the drawing, a single tear dropping on the paper
"…It's hard to believe even this old dream finally came true…
…I hope you're proud of who you became, lil' Peaches…"

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305218

>>305217
"I think we should, yes."
Give him a smile then brush up to him as we walk.

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305219

>>305217
"What did you want to be, back then?"

DM 305220

>>305218
You return to the training grounds and locate the one you fought earlier
"Hey, welcome back. Who's your uh, friend?"
>>305219
"…your wife"

305223

>>305217
"Interesting fellow, isn't he, Venus? Advisor and bodyguard alike. I wonder if it it is indeed possible to train a group of elite assistants similarly. Sword, and word alike.. perhaps I have misjudged this place."

See if I can find more to catch my interest

Roll #0 1 = 1

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305224

>>305220
"Oh, he is Celaire, and we are not just friends. But, uh I don't believe I got your name earlier when we fought?"

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305225

>>305220
Sigh.
"Wife of a kid with no real name who had to steal to eat?"

DM 305228

>>305223
"You know who else is an interesting fellow~?"
She has a sly grin on her face
>>305224
"Beaten Copper, miss. And i must say it was quite an honour to fight you. Your brother has every right to be proud of you."
>>305225
She huffs
"I was young and starstruck…
I guess I also wanted to be a noble. And a mother…"

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305231

>>305228
"I have to admit that I enjoyed that fight very much, yes."
I chuckle.
"And he's not my brother either."

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305233

>>305228
"Yeah right."
Let go of her.
"All you mares are the same."
Smirk at her and move on through the market.
What places did you say there were to visit around here?

Verne [Trickster] 305235

>>305228
"Oh, goodness… we can save that for tonight, dear. For now, we've got much to explore. Fancy you their weapons? Being fighters, surely they must have weaponry with an advantage over Ironfoe's. Narpa might be interested."

Go look at the market.

DM 305236

>>305231
"…oh? Well I've never been one to tell a mare how to live her life, so I won't ask more. Anyway, ready to go?"
>>305233
"Says the stallion…"
-Market
-Palace
-Hall of Champions
-Training grounds
-Arena
>>305235
Looks like Pumpkin and Peaches are here too.

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305237

>>305236
"Huh?"
I tilt my head slightly.
"But yes, I am."

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305238

>>305236
Right, I should take a look at the arena for this. And have a chat with my guys beneath it.

DM 305240

>>305237
"Good. Well, the best places to eat are either the training hall dining hall, or a certain restaurant at the market."
>>305238
You'll need to head out of the city to reach the deep roads if you want to get under it.

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305242

>>305240
I gave each of them communication crystals for this operation. They should be in range if I head to the arena.

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305243

>>305240
"I don't really know either, so I'll trust you to lead to the one that is best."

DM 305245

>>305242
Probably, yes.
The arena is quite vast. Easily big enough for large events of various types. Several doors on the sides of the main floor allow access to the maintenance and resting areas under the arena.
>>305243
Very well, let's try the restaurant.
He leads you to the market, to a buffet of sorts.
>>305235
Looks like Radiant just arrived with Celaire and a strange stallion to a restaurant.

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305248

>>305245
"Do you have any dish in particular that you think we should try?"

305249

>>305245
Can I see anypony here? Is there an event going on, a janitor, anything?

Roll #0 8 = 8

Verne [Trickster] 305254

>>305249
Assuming I'm still in the market with Pumpkin

"Ah, Pumpkin. How goes… preparation?"

DM 305255

>>305249
There are always ponies down here. Cleaners, masseuses, bathers, doctors…
>>305248
"All of them. That's why I love this place. You pay once, and eat all you want!"

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305256

>>305255
"Oh, that's great!"

Let's start picking out stuff that I fancy.
'1d10'

Roll #1 9 = 9

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305257

>>305254
I'm in the arena right now.
"I'm checking on them. Everything should be ready."
>>305255
Okay, walk inside and start having a look around, size up the arena, the seats of the king and his court, the exits, everything that matters.

DM 305262

>>305257
The king has a special seat across from the main gates, offering a good view of the arena floor.
The normal seats go around the sides of the arena.
>>305256
The plates here are huge, and you end up with a mountain of steaming hot food.
~yum~
Time to find seats

Verne [Trickster] 305263

>>305257
Since we're on a mission I'll have handed you a commu gem.

"Good. I hope you arranged for far sight gems, too. Visual cue may be needed."

And then I'll go check on the weapons.

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305264

>>305262
Okay, find some good ones.
'1d10'

Roll #1 8 = 8

305265

>>305263
Rolling for fun

Roll #0 3 = 3

DM 305266

>>305264
You get comfy seats near the buffet itself
"So, Radiant, where did you learn to fight like that?"
>>305263
>>305265
The selection is overwhelmingly vast here. You have trouble wrapping your head around it.

305267

>>305266
Find what seems to be the best quality among them all, then.

Roll #0 8 = 8

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305268

>>305262
Okay tap on the comm gem.
Everything in order?

DM 305269

>>305268
Yes, sir. We have enough barrels down here to level the entire area.
>>305267
While not quite on par with Narpa himself, one of the local smiths does have an impressive looking array or merchandise.

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305270

>>305266
Speak between eating. Well, after chewing and swallowing of course.
"It was something I was born good at. My memories are a little fuzzy, long story, really, but I do remember that I had a combative spirit even as a filly. Then, I lived the rest of my life as a Paladin of the Sun, served as a guard for King Frostmourn, and the like."

Verne [Trickster] 305271

>>305269

"Ah, weapons, the tool of any warrior. Good day, shopkeeper, I was wondering if it would be possible to tell me what forging techniques you have here in Eaglecrest?"

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305272

>>305269
The only thing that will have to blow is the arena's floor, I count on you not making any mistakes. Taking part of the audience would be most unfortunate.
Clean up as much as you can once you are done setting up, we must leave no traces and hardly will have the chance to hide evidence afterwards.

DM 305273

>>305270
"Impressive. Most impressive indeed. I believe I could learn a thing or two from you."
>>305271
"Only the best we can. Folding the steel to remove impurities, creating alloys that enhance the metal's lifespan, and that like.
Of course if we, too, had volcanic forges, I could be much better at this."
>>305272
Yes sir. We will be as ghosts.

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305274

>>305273
Good work.
Close the link and find Frosty.

DM 305276

>>305274
He is in the palace, getting ready for the battles at hand by inspecting his gear

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305277

>>305273
"As do I. Learning new battle techniques is always exciting."

Verne [Trickster] 305278

>>305273
"Interesting.. but you do not use enchantments and the like to augment your weapons, do you?"

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305280

>>305276
"Spoiling your focus?" Walk in with a smirk and sit in front of him.
"How do you feel, friend?"

DM 305282

>>305277
"Well I'd gladly give you some pointers"
>>305278
"No. We believe in the purity pf our metal. Enchantments, like all magic, are unpredictable and prone to failure. At least with a good, proper weapon you know the fault is in the wielder, not in some unknown force."
>>305280
"Confident but anxious. I will need a good night of relaxing before I can feel ready."

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305284

>>305282
"That's great! I'm sure as a pony from Eaglecrest you could teach me something new!"

Verne [Trickster] 305285

>>305282
"That is a sound philosophy, I suppose. In a society of warrior,s how valued is your position?"

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305286

>>305282
"You can sleep on the softest pillow they have, because everything is ready.
"This place is really a wonder for a fighter."
Walk around the room, taking sight of it.
"Any last words? Anything you want to say before facing him?"

DM 305289

>>305284
Celaire looks a little disappointed, but Beaten Copper smiles widely
"We really do need to find some time for ourselves."
>>305285
"Quite valued. Though I am not the most accomplished fighter, I gain some added respect from my smith skills. Though my arms are nothing really special. You want special, ask Narpa of Ironfoe. That pony is a legend."
>>305286
"I hope bearing won't be too disappointed if I die. She was kinda hoping for more between all of us."

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305291

>>305289
"I have time until the actual tournament. We could go back to the training grounds so you could show me some of those moves."

Verne [Trickster] 305292

>>305289
"So word of him travels far? Very fascinating. Thank you for your time."

Go back and see Frosty if there is nothing else of interest.

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305293

>>305289
"Gee, I don't know Frosty. I might always find a new stallion to forget you. Who knows what I might do in the desperation!"
Move beside him again and softly punch his shoulder.
"I've got your back dude. Relax."

DM 305296

>>305291
"Certainly. but not right after a meal. That's lesson number one."
>>305292
He is at the palace, preparing with Pumpkin
>>305293
"There is little to be relaxed about. I am at every disadvantage possible, save for the bomb
…and my sword"

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305298

>>305296
"Of course. That wouldn't be very fortunate. Any idea what we could do in the meantime?"

Verne [Trickster] 305299

>>305296
Or maybe I should go see King Ebonreth, instead. Go find him.

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305300

>>305296
"You are younger. In a better armor. And you have a mission.
After all, he talked to you, didn't he?
He showed you what you needed to do to win."

DM 305303

>>305298
"Oh plenty. We could go back to my place for one, if that's the way you like to prepare?"
>>305299
He is in his own quarters at the palace.
The guards stop you at the door
"What business?"
>>305300
"Indeed…
Well, worrying won't really help me, will it?"

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305304

>>305303
"You mean stretching and meditating? Sounds fine."

Verne [Trickster] 305305

>>305303
"Good day. Is King Ebonreth available for an audience with the High King's Advisor? If not, then excuse me, I will be on my way."

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305306

>>305303
"Right. Never did me any good. The only time I worried I got slapped by Valeriana.
But I'm not letting you walk out like last time or get shitfaced on ale, that never helps before a battle."

DM 305307

>>305304
"Well, that certainly is a part of it"
Celarie gets up
"Thank you, both of you. But I must rest a little now."
>>305305
"Go right ahead, Adviser."
They open the door
"ANNOUNCING THE ADVISER OF THE HIGH KING!"
>>305306
"Well well, you intend to guard me or something?"

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305308

>>305307
"Aren't you coming, dear?"

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305309

>>305307
"Yeah, right, I think you are old enough not to be suicidal. What would Sunrise say if you made it back with yet one less leg?"

DM 305310

>>305308
"Do you want me to?"
>>305309
"Quite… she had a big enough job getting used to the one…"

Verne [Trickster] 305312

>>305307
"Thank you."

Go up and bow to King Ebonreth.

"To King Ebonreth of Eaglecrest, this advisor greets your Majesty. I mere wished to ask and discuss of your Majesty a few things, as a guest."

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305313

>>305310
"I just thought you wanted to learn some of those fighting moves too."

DM 305314

>>305313
He rolls his eyes
"Look whatever way you want to find your purpose again is up to you. But unless it really is a wish of yours to have me along for your preparations, I'll be going now."
>>305312
"Come in come in. What's on your mind little guy?"

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305315

>>305314
I frown.
"If you say so… just tell me where you will be so I can find you later, okay?"

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305316

>>305310
"So keep your wits about you and blow that fucker out of the water!"
Grin at him and stomp my hoof to underline the force of the statement.
"I fear it's late for a last minute fighting lesson, and far too early for a stress relief.
But I was going to meet with a trainee of the elite guards I've met this morning for lunch, I think he'd make a good blade.
But keep in mind we talk barracks, I'm not sure you want to eat the stuff they cook."

Verne [Trickster] 305317

>>305314
Am I being taunted in jest, or mockery? No matter, I will see him broken and mutilated come what may.

"Much of Eaglecrest's inner workings interest me. To what right does one have in order to be considered for rule? I have heard that the previous ruler must be defeated in combat, yes? Why do the people of Eaglecrest accept this form of succession?"

DM 305318

>>305315
"I'll be in our room at the palace. Have fun with him."
Celaire leaves, while Copper shrugs
"What's eating him?"
>>305316
"I'd rather the palace food, really."
>>305317
He is about three times your size. He has every right to call you little.
"Eaglecrest has always had a necessity for warriors, and strong warriors with sharp minds as leaders. We have not seen the end of war ever since the griffons arrived, and thus only the best fighters and strategists can be kings here."

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305319

>>305318
I look at him as he goes.
"No idea. Maybe he is nervous that I will get hurt in the Arena. Anyway, shall we go?"

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305320

>>305318
"Figured as much." Give him a smile.
"I'll be back later, help you out if you still haven't calmed youself."
SbS. How nervous is he?
'1d10'

Roll #1 4 = 4

Verne [Trickster] 305321

>>305318
"Then what of strategy? How is a King to-be assessed of their mind?"

DM 305328

>>305319
"Yes."
he leads you to his place, a small house by the market
"So, you one of those foreplay types then?"
>>305320
This dude is made of rocks, he's so cool he shits ice. He's so way past cool absolute zero was like SLOOOOOW DOOOOOWN. If he was any more chill he'd make the air around him into a solid.
You have no idea how nervous he is.
>>305321
"Not just anyone can issue a King's Challenge. Only those who have proven themselves beforehoof can."

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305330

>>305328
I tilt my head slightly.
"Excuse me?"

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305331

>>305328
But… Muh DC2!
Okay.
He's having it rough. But it's not even past noon, no time for buttfuckery.
Leave and find the barracks.

Verne [Trickster] 305332

>>305328
"How does one prove themselves? Through distinguished service?"

DM 305333

>>305330
"Well you wanted to start off with stretching and meditation. A little exotic, yes, but I'm not judging."
>>305331
DC3
Meanwhile at the barracks, it sure is crowded in here. Not many luxuries, just barebones rooms.
>>305332
"That, or notable deeds and victories."

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305335

>>305333
I had it replaced, don't you remember?
Okay, let's look for my date.
'1d10'

Roll #1 5 = 5

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305337

>>305333
"What, you don't ever stretch before? It really helps to not get your muscles cramped up."

DM 305339

>>305335
You look around for a while and then realize there are names on the doors.
Finding Fleetflight is easy after that.
>>305337
He raises an eyebrow
"You must have some pretty rough moves if you need to stretch beforehoof to avoid cramps."

Venia [Battlemage] 305340

Oh my, what's happening?

Verne [Trickster] 305341

>>305333
"Ah. Looking through your Hall of Champions, one Silvertounge caught my eye. Is he very celebrated?"

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305342

>>305339
"You already saw most of them, haven't you? Can't afford to be gentle in the fray."

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305343

>>305339
This just serves to show I've not had a former military instruction.
Oh well.
Knock.

DM 305344

>>305340
The great Eaglecrest D hunt
What would you like to do?
>>305341
"He was a remarkable strategist, and an unmatched negotiator. He recovered a vast amount of lost land for us, with almost no bloodshed at all."
>>305342
"Oh I'm hoping we'll be showing one another a lot more soon."
He opens the door and heads in.

DM 305345

>>305343
"Enter."

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305346

>>305344
I follow him.
"That's the point, isn't it?"

DM 305347

>>305346
"Oh indeed. So, do you prefer the bed, or?"

Venia [Battlemage] 305348

>>305344
It looks like everyone is with their lovers right now.
Anvil and Valeriana aren't available so dammit, let's just go to the hall of Champions

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305349

>>305345
Open the door and take sight of his room.
"Hope you didn't lose your appetite."

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305350

>>305347
I raise an eyebrow.
"The bed? For training?"

Verne [Trickster] 305352

>>305344
"He was one who caught my attention, and might share my philosophies. To myself, risky war is a last resort, as the lives of those under myself are not my personal property to use as I please. What about yourself, you Majesty? How and why did you come to ascend?"

DM 305353

>>305348
Big place, lots of wargear and statues.
Anything in particular you're looking for?
>>305349
"Oh, Swansong. No no I'm still five for lunch. Shall we?"
>>305350
"Well no, for the preparations.
Or do you prefer the floor perhaps? I know I like the bed quite well."
>>305352
"After leading four successful campaigns, and finding a temporary resolution to the problem we had with Rockeye, I was offered a chance for a Challenge. I took it, and won."

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305354

>>305353
"Huh. I usually just strech on the floor, no need for a bed for that."

Start stretching my legs.
'1d10'

Roll #1 10 = 10

DM 305355

>>305354
Copper joins in
"You do have lovely muscles. Strong and well trained."

Verne [Trickster] 305356

>>305353
"Offered a chance? So it was the former King who decided you should have a chance in succeeding him?"

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305357

>>305353
"Right behind you Fleetflight. Mind if my partner joins too?"

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305358

>>305355
"Thank you. I try to take good care of them with working out daily. Keeps me fit and healthy!"

Venia [Battlemage] 305359

>>305353
Is Ebonreth's track record in here maybe? If not, just stroll around a bit and see if I can find any warrior mages or something.

DM 305364

>>305356
"Am honour as great as it is rare. Though it is not always the king who offers the chance. Many times it has been clear to all who deserves a challenge even without royal mandate"
>>305357
"I won't mind at all."
He takes you to the mess hall, where they are putting on a feast
>>305358
"So I take it you don't mind being a little rough?"

Ebonreth's wargear is not here, nor is his date of death recorded, but as king, he does have a place here.
[Ebonreth - Tenth King
-Successfully lead the Retaking of Clipped Wing Point
-Defended Vigil of the Fallen until reinforcements arrived
-Slew two griffon champions sent to face the king
-Was offered a challenge by the king, and won

How inviting does it look?
'1d10'

Roll #1 9 = 9

DM 305366

>>305365
It's a feast Pumpkin.
A feat for lunch

Verne [Trickster] 305368

>>305364
"I see. So, then, what happened to the former King? Is it a challenge to the death? How would such a fight go?"

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305369

>>305364
"As long as you don't mind either. I'm sorry if I will accidentally hurt you though. Happens sometimes."

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305370

>>305366
How. Why.
Fucking Elite.
Okay try not to choke on the food.
"Is it always like this around here?"

DM 305371

>>305368
"Few kings wish to retire, and so often the King's Challenge is indeed to the death."
>>305369
"Oh, I'm sure it will be worth it."
He gets up and takes his armour off
>>305370
"Oh yes. A warrior must eat to stay strong."

Venia [Battlemage] 305372

I let out a soft sigh
"Please be okay Frostmourn…"
I look around for a moment
"… and you too Valeriana."

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305374

>>305371
I pause.
"Uh, why are you taking your armor off? That won't be healthy…"

Verne [Trickster] 305375

>>305371
"But it was He who offered you the challenge. He wished to be felled by you, someone who could entrust the country to, then?"

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305376

>>305371
"No objections there. You Elite get all the shiny stuff, I must admit."
Eat some more.
"Have you ever seen real battle yet?"

DM 305383

>>305372
"I will. I will."
>>305374
"Hm? I was wondering why you aren't taking yours off. It's rather uncomfortable, unless you had some specific position in mind?"
>>305375
"Quite. He saw a good head on me, and wanted to make sure I was strong enough to lead from the front. I proved he had no need to worry."
>>305376
"I did fight a few. Of note was the Equestrian assassin who had infiltrated the elite training program. I fought him and later heard King Ebonreth killed another. Then there was the time I was on patrol duty and was ambushed by griffons. I took the wings of one as a little keepsake."

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305386

>>305383
Do I realise what's up already?
'1d10'

Roll #1 10 = 10

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305388

>>305383
"This I want to hear. We had troubles with assassins too, back in Wintergrasp."

Venia [Battlemage] 305389

>>305383
So she is nearby. But she's also on a mission, so chatting with her is a no-no.
Let's get out of here. What time is it? Anyone to talk to at all?

Verne [Trickster] 305390

>>305383
"In felling him, you gave him peace. How did you fight? Or, rather, how do you fight? I know warriors who follow many different philosophies. What about yourself, majesty?"

DM 305391

>>305386
Well now that you think about it, it should be obvious he wants to fuck before training. And you have been implying the same desire since the beginning.
>>305388
"Oh? Guess they saw you as a threat too. Not too well trained the one I fought. Not a Lordblade for certain. Still skilled though, quite a match for a less-trained me."
>>305389
Frosty is available
So are all the PCs with a timeskip
>>305390
"I prefer my hooves. What better to trust than a part of yourself?"

Venia [Battlemage] 305393

>>305391
Frostmourn needs to relax and focus. How about Sunrise? Or does she need to help Frostmourn focus?

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305394

>>305391
I take a step back.
"Oh by the Sun! You… you didn't mean training at all! I'm… I'm terribly sorry, but I am not like that! I didn't know it was that sort of dinner invitation!"

Verne [Trickster] 305395

>>305391
"You do not favour a weapon, even coverings for your hooves?"

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305396

>>305391
Chuckle slightly.
"You remind me of the first time I fought one of them. He was a lordblade alright. Had even two more assassins with him.
Took five of us to put down the three of them.
Damn night. I can't quite remember how old I was. Must have been four or more years ago."

DM 305400

>>305394
"Hm? Oh I did mean training too. It's just not at all uncommon to have a bit of sex first. Loosens up the body nicely.
Or is this something you don't do where you're from?"
>>305393
I'm sure the king wouldn't mind the company of his mare
>>305395
"Oh yes. I keep them with my other wargear."
>>305396
"You fought a lordblade? Well, I'm surprised you're still alive. Even one as strong as Ebonreth still was wounded by his foe."

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305403

>>305400
"No, no I would never cheat on Celaire! I would never be unfaithful!"

Venia [Battlemage] 305404

>>305400
Well shit. Let's just go to the training grounds then so I can practice my skills for the upcoming battles.

DM 305407

>>305403
"Cheat? Hm, must be a cultural thing. Can't say that's a term I've run across in this context."
>>305404
There are several instructors here
"Hello there, you look somewhat familiar. Do I know you?"

Can we pause soon? I want to eat and sleep…

Venia [Battlemage] 305408

>>305407
I shake my head
"Probably not. I'm not from around here."

Just go now

Pumpkin Swansong [Northblade] 305409

>>305400
"Actually, I took on two. And an army of spies. Just a few weeks ago, I had to face a fully trained lordblade.
He was using Ironfoe's spies as backup, quickly cornering us.
When they cornered my teacher, I had little choice but to offer the lordblade a one on one duel.
Needless to say he took the bait and today I'm here talking with you."
Go to sleep DM.

Radiant Dawn [Celestial] 305411

>>305407
"Still… I am sorry if I dissapoint you, but I'm afraid nothing will happen between us. I would be still glad to train with you, but nothing more than just friends."

I have to drop now anyway

Verne [Trickster] 305412

>>305400
"Fascinating. What would the wargear of a warrior king consist of and be like, Majesty?"

DM 305414

NEXT TIME ON THIS SHIT
I TRY TO NOT HAVE A FUCKING COLD THAT LASTS HALF A FUCKING YEAR
ALSO MORE EXPOSITION
AND MAYBE A BATTLE TOO
