Paladin lifted his head at the sound of the door to welcome who ever had come in, stranger or friend, when his hand cleaning the glasses faltered. Paladin stood painfully still and sheet white. He knew that face and he knew there was no getting out of what was to come. The granddaughter...

Paladin had felt....restless for the rest of the night after he had gone to bed. It barely felt like he had slept at all before he was up and starting the fires and doing the cleaning for the morning. Something prickled at him, but whether it was the poison or something else he could say for...

Paladin picked up the bowl left outside the door once the tavern had closed for the night, later than usual as a group of the villagers had gotten themselves into a game that the old man was participating in and therefore not willing to have it broken up. It was late, but Paladin had shooed the...

Kraven likely found what he was looking for in the way that Paladin's facial muscle jumped just a little before he schooled himself. It was a worrying thought that he could be found, however. He was likely to receive punishment for leaving, regardless if he still had his abilities or not. Not to...

Paladin nodded, releasing the bowl once the other grabbed it. "Just leave the bowl outside the door once you're done. Breakfast is served from six to nine in the morning. If you miss it, you're on your own. The bath is available for use whenever you want it. There are instructions there on how...

He quietly nodded at the stranger's request. It wasn't that unusual that there would be some that could not handle the bustling tavern and he wasn't exactly going to tell him no and to deal with it or leave. Maybe some would, but that didn't exactly garner repeat customers. He put the money in...

Paladin nodded and swept the coins away, counting them. "There's enough here for two weeks with board and access to the baths. How long will you be staying with us?" Part of him wondered how this stranger had obtained so much money. Maybe he was an adventurer of some sort. They had seen that...

Something pricked at Paladin's senses as the cloaked stranger walked into the tavern. While it wasn't unusual to have someone like that pass through (that was part of the tavern's duties to provide rooms when needed) there was something about this stranger that triggered something wary within...

Paladin had never intended for his life to be this way. He had never intended to slip away into the night, leaving his whole life and all his friends behind. He didn't have any family, he hadn't in a very long time. So perhaps it had been all too easy to set aside his sword and slip out the...

Rayne was pretty intimidated by the creature that Azure was sitting atop of, he had to admit to himself. While he had seen some of the horses passing along in the village he hadn't quite been so close as he was to this one. And horses were big he realized. Very big. Rayne tugged nervously at his...

Rayne hid behind his hands for a while longer until he was confident that Rayne wasn't around. He felt stupid for the tears pricking at his eyes but he felt so absolutely....overwhelmed. Things were hitting him too fast, and he was still reeling from it all. Two near-death experiences- the bus...

Rayne started to glow for a different reason at Miss Jude's words, face blazing red beneath his hands. Now he wanted to find that hole even more. The fact that he got glowing as a superpower probably would have been funny if it weren't for the fact that they found themselves in a bit of a...

"Not a disease? Good, good-" He stopped. "Wait. Wait wait wait, don't tell me. Doooon't tell me that it's what I think it is. Please do not tell me that you get cool gravity powers that let you fly and I get to fucking glow. Please tell me I'm wrong." He buried his head in his hands. Azure's...

"Yes, Azure?" He asked before his gaze followed theirs, wondering what could have caught their attention during such a serious discussion. He gasped and jerked back as if he could move away from his own skin. In doing so he threw himself off where he was sitting and hit the ground with a thump...

Rayne paused, sensing something deeper in Azure's words. Hurt, maybe. Somehow he didn't think it was directed at him, though. "Don't you think that's up to me to decide, Azure?" He said gently. "I may not know much about the world, but I do know this: the is no way I wouldn't ever like who you...
