Video - Locked to Unseelie

[scorchedchivalry]

For those that have unearthed remains at the behest of the Black Shuck, if you have come across those of the Seelie, I will be venturing to Caer Gleam to return them upon the evening of the Seventh. I am willing to transport those of any who can bring them to me in Daonna before my departure to the Seelie stronghold.

Should you do so, I will ensure that the Seelie are aware of whom among us honored their dead. [Since honor was a huge deal to the Seelie.]

I would appreciate being contacted beforehand so I can prepare.

Do you intend to storm the enemy stronghold by yourself, King of Knights?

[In other words, do they know you're coming?]

[Really, Rider, can't you think of things in contexts that DON'T involve conquering stuff?]

I intend on delivering the remains of their fallen to their gates. Consider it a test to see if they will attack me on sight.

[He would be able to see the silver cloak that denotes her as one of the Necroveil upon her shoulders, held on by clasps shaped like clegs that I can't remember wtf they're actually called.]

That is...noble of you. Are you certain they will allow you safe passage?

Video

[scorchedchivalry]

If they do not, it will be very telling.

Video

[forsworn_rose]

Yes, it will be. Though seems like a tactically unsound way to test a point.

Video

[scorchedchivalry]

I do not believe they will attack me, given my knowledge of their code. But do not worry, General. I have a contingency in place should it go sour.

Video

[forsworn_rose]

I suppose I should not have expected anything less.

[She smiles faintly.]

I do believe I have found a few bones they would want.

[scorchedchivalry]

Then see them to Daonna on the Seventh. They will find their rest soon.

[dragmire]

A bold gesture. We have begun to assemble a collection of Seelie bones in Mair. If you are eager to test the honor of the Seelie, then you are welcome to see then handed over.

[scorchedchivalry]

The more I come bearing, the greater the stain upon their honor should they not accept them from my hands. See them to Daonna and I will grace the Seelie with Mair's generosity.

[dragmire]

'tis a long road, even by horse. But it shall be managed.

[A giant bird will suffice in carrying it all over. Bones are mercifully light at least.]

[scorchedchivalry]

I am certain a man of your talents will find a way.

[dragmire]

I will. And what of you, Saber? It has been a month now since you came to this land. What compels you now to perform this unpleasant task?

[scorchedchivalry]

Curiosity and assessment. What better opportunity to get insight into the workings of the Seelie than through a gesture their code should dictate they honor?

And I would like to look upon Caer Glaem with my own eyes.

[dragmire]

Tis a magnificent castle. You shan't be disappointed in seeing it. A far prettier thing than where our own queen dwells.

You won't be going by yourself, will you?

[scorchedchivalry]

I am meeting another there.

[Not a lie.]

[digophelia]

Who are they?

[ Not fretting, at all. ]

[scorchedchivalry]

[Saber raised an eyebrow.]

Have you become my keeper, Alice?

[digophelia]

I was only mildly curious, Miss Saber.

[ And now she's just doing this in purpose. ]

[brat]

...it is a friend of a friend. I have not met him yet. Do not trouble yourself with it.

[Which isn't true, but only because she doesn't know yet that she has already met him.]

[digophelia]

[ Hey, you opened up that can of worms, not her. In the meantime, TSUN TSUN TSUN. ]

Well, how fortunate to hear. I hope that neither of you are met with nonsense like arrows or swords when you get there.

[scorchedchivalry]

[She went prying into Saber's affairs when she didn't want Alice to know that she - a lone Unseelie Necroveil - was going to Caer Glaem without 'backup' she knew she could count on!]

Should that occur, the Seelie will have made a very grave mistake.

[digophelia]

[ Alice doesn't get drunk and kiss people, okay. ]

Well, if you insist that the both of you will be safe, then I suppose that you will.

[scorchedchivalry]

[She might! If she, you know, ever got drunk.]

Should I run afoul of something I should have prepared for, you are welcome to reprimand me when I get back.
