“Wait here,” instructed Emppsol, and he swung down from his horse and made his way into the noisy tavern. Tasiha muffled a sigh and turned to speak to Evirix and Vanad. She did not want them wandering off again like that had at *Port City*, so she engaged them in conversation while Emppsol went about his business.
The air was inevitably smoky and stale with the smoke of pipes and the hand-rolled weed that was so common upon the continent—tobacco—and in addition the fire in the hearth at the far side of the room also smoked horrendously. But Emppsol had been in places of this sort before and was accustomed to the atmosphere. He deftly slipped around a fight that had broken out in the midst of room, avoiding spilled ale tankards and sprawling drunks with equal easy until he reached the far counter and the tall, bulky man serving the drinks. A few blunt inquiries produced little results. “I dona know, sir. I dona think that there be such a man as ye describe in all of this city.” Emppsol gritted his teeth, but before he could answer, a man slugging his drink next to him spoke up. “Ows about ye speak to Sgeam? Didna he do such a thing, once?” Emppsol turned to the bartender, who glared briefly at the man and said, “Sgeam not be like to do such a thing, nowadays. He be fer putting all that behind em.” “Lemme try and talk to em, then, and I might be like to change his mind.” The bartender glared again at the other man. “Sgeam be the man in the corner, there.” He pointed at a far table, where a *hmm… don’t want to make him *too* much like Aragorn, but… :D or maybe I should have him be a fat, sweating little man. Nah. Think issus or silk. With a tragic past? Or just unscrupulous? Or what? The more I think about this, the more I think that this character is going to be a problem. The only time I can see him clearly is when he catches Tasiha after she returns with the wolf, Brgor. (my that sounds wolfish :D). Then he seems rough and callous and suspicious of all things. Who *is* this? Maybe this is Erialk! Someday. Or maybe not. Hmmm…* |

***Tbook1 (Time and Chaos, needs a new name, needs to be edited) ***Book of Sun (Just needs to be edited. Tis a Nano novel) ***Book of Whispers part 1 (Does not jive at all with part 2; needs to be rewritten to fit and to have less suckage) ***Book of Whispers part 2 (Needs some rehaul editing, needs some loose ends tied up, needs to fit) ***Book of Whispers part 3 (Needs to be finished... then needs to die o.o Not sure if I need a third part in the series) ***Dium's Story (Needs a point, progress, anything... needs to be integrated into Tbook1, since that is what it is a part of, mainly) ***Trio Story with Jackie and Louise (Maybe we should get together and work on this, guys) ***Demon Story (This is working out pretty good so far. I like the plot, it's a bit convoluted, and the characters are interesting) ***New Witch Story (It's only 30 pages long, dang) ***Dragon's Voices (This has SO much potential! wee!) | |
