002 ♖ [video] | Seelie

[Richard Castle is coming to you live from the Seelie armory where he's been assisting in the process of organizing the weapons, shields and armor for the forthcoming battle. Since he honestly doesn't plan on riding out to fight with people he doesn't want to kill in a battle he doesn't want to participate in, he figures this is a way to still be helpful without actually risking life and limb. Castle, of course, has a different definition of "helpful" than most people do. In fact, the first thing one notices on the locket screen is Castle wearing an armored helmet. He lifts the face shield and smiles at his audience.]

Hey. So, I just wanted to draw your attention to the armory. If you haven't visited here lately, they have the latest medieval technology for all your fighting needs, including armor hand-shined by yours truly.

[He turns the locket around in order to show a panoramic view of rows of shiny breastplates and helmets, all stacked neatly and awaiting wearers, then turns the view back on himself.]

So come check it out. I might even fit you myself, if you're that lucky.

[With that, Castle flips down the front of his helmet and flashes a thumbs up to the locket. Then, as an afterthought, he quickly raises the hatch again.]

Oh, while I'm thinking about it... I've heard that it's possible to use guns here. If you have any knowledge about how to acquire one, even if it's, shall we say, an older model, I'd be very interested to hear what you know.

That is true. I suppose I shall call out and see who can help. I am running low on a few things. Not dangerously yet, but...

If nothing else someone might be able to get me what herbs I need, or point me where they can be found. Would that it wasn't the middle of winter!

[She hesitates on the thought of actually asking though. It would be unheard of for an apprentice to take charge that way at home.]

Maybe, though many plants would not find the winter sun to their liking, even if they are hardy enough to stand the cold. If there was some way to keep them warmer, and strengthen the light somehow...

[Greenhouses haven't been invented yet where she comes from, though there are a few methods for more hardy plants. Still, she might make use of that idea somehow. Hmm...]

And some are, indeed. I think I've raided the kitchens a time or two, but I wouldn't want to take all of their herbs. Some are not prepared in the best way for medicines either, though they do in a pinch.

I will try to think of a way to aid them. They have already helped me a little. [she smiles] Thank you, though.

I would ask that, except that I'm not much of a gardener. I fear what help they give might be undone by myself. That's why I was assigned to follow a Wort Hunter, and a learning trek into the woods, to learn where they grow.

What I think, is that I should ask them to help the gardeners instead, so that we all may reap the benefits. The trick is to find a gardener and explain the idea.

You mean, if I earn a 'boon?' I think I might ask to learn to understand beasts, and they to understand me in return. It would have been easier to help the wolves if I could have conversed with them as we are conversing now!

[So a little selfish, but still motivated by the desire to help others.]
