[ Sif doesn't really use her locket too terribly often, but these past few days spent digging up old bones and transporting them back to the crypt of Caer Glaem has made her somewhat philosophical, especially since she has a promise to keep and she is very much a woman of her word.

Her chief helper in the task of transporting bones can be seen as well, since she decided to record this message on a whim just as she was dismounting her cleg. The big animal seems to have decided that she is a worthy enough mistress, since it is rubbing its great head against her arm with enough force that even the sturdy Asgardian has to brace herself a bit against it. ]

Stop that, my friend.

[ There is a somewhat uncommon softness in her tone as she gently shoves the cleg's head away from her before addressing the network. ]

I was tasked by Black Shuck with honoring the plains of Cathraon after the revels of Samhain were over and done with, to mark the sorrow of those lands and to pay it homage. I have been carrying bones from unmarked graves to a final resting place for days now, since it is his will that we do so, but I am uncertain if that is enough to see my oath fulfilled. It is up to me to decide how this should be done, but if you would be willing to share with me how you would do such a thing I would gladly listen. I know many among you belong to peoples strongly connected to the land you walk upon.

[ She's friends with elves after all. The cleg tries to get her attention again, and she smiles a little while she turns away briefly to again make it stop pestering her. ]

On a less somber note I would also ask if any of you ladies in this world know of a way to avoid getting with child should one desire to take a lover. I am unfamiliar with the methods of this realm.

[ Asgardian bluntness strikes again. ]

Thank you, and a good day to you all.

[ Sif raises an eyebrow. ]

Why what?

Edited 2014-11-13 22:19 (UTC)

The--you know. The--avoiding--um.

The...

Yeah.

[ She's red, and she's not sure how much of it is embarassment and how much of it is just her being flustered. ]

[ The look Sif is giving her young friend right now is best translated with "really?" ]

Why do I not wish to get with child?

[ She knows that's probably not the question Kelsi wants answered, but you know what, she's going to tease a bit anyway. ]

Is there--

I mean.. Do you.. .Do you like someone?

Have I fallen in love, you mean?

Well...

Yeah.

[ Okay she is going to switch to private now because this is turning into a pretty private conversation. ]

That is not what has happened.

[ Though she is in love with someone, of course, it just isn't connected to her asking about contraception. ]
