Homecoming|Skyheort, Talen'sul

[Northen Light36]

"It's not your fault," replies Saph, his voice tight with barely restrained fury. "It's the fault of the Clears... And Jokell for aiding them. Unless you were one of the Ice types aiding the Clears who attacked Zephyr, you are not at fault."

[adris]

Faren looks towards Saph and shares in his anger of what is happening.

"I am nothing like them... the only thing about them that is anything like me is their powers over ice. I hate them and them blindly following that fool Jokull. I would like nothing more then to make Jokull feel the steel of my bladed tonfa... or to see him powerless and bowing in front of me. I hate that man with all the fire that burns in my shop."

He silences himself so he dosn't get overblown and ruin the sleep of those that are trying to rest in the other rooms.

[Kender Bard]

Luna chose this moment to lapse into coherency again. "Jokull.. if you want to bring him down... I bet I could think of a way. But it'd take a three-sign to help. Even if he were teamed, Jokull is very strong."

[Northen Light36]

Saph looks at him for a long moment. "Then it seems we have something in common," he says at last. "If I should ever meet Jokell, I shall take great pleasure in ripping his signs right out of his flesh and then seeing how long he can hold his breath underwater." There's a dark rage in Saph's tone that seems practically un-natural when coming from the mouth of a water elemental. He calms though when Luna speaks. "What's your idea sweetie?"

[adris]

Faren smiles to the little girl, he enjoys the sound of the words that roll off of her tongue.

"I would love to hear your idea milady. And since I am planning on meeting several three-signs, I might be able to pull it off if I find the support for it."

His full attention was on Luna, trying to take in her every word.

[Kender Bard]

Luna regards both of them calmly. "Jokull might think he's getting the better end of this deal, but from what little I've seen, he's like a puppy eager to please its master. Send someone to pretend they're a scout for the Clears..." She looks at Faren pointedly. "Particularly an Ice type.. send a message that the Clears wish to speak with him. I'm sure he'll show up unquestioningly. Then ambush him."

[Northen Light36]

Saph considers the idea, nodding thoughtfully. "That could work..." he agrees slowly.

[adris]

Faren regained his ambitious twinkle in his eyes, he likes the sound of the idea. A wide smile appears on his face as he watches the girl.

"You are correct, this could very well work... all that we need now is a leader who will cooperate with us. The two direct choices would be Shadow, who is out of commision you said and Lya, who no offence to her I don't think she could take Jokull in combat. So that leaves in my mind Avani, Faolan, and Damien correct? Who do you think would be best for the job?"

He looks towards Saph, hoping that he knew the leaders in question well enough to be able to come to a better conclusion then he as to which one would be best to approach.

[Northen Light36]

"I don't know Avani or Faolan at all, but I'm sure Damien would be willing to help," replies Saph thoughtfully. "Plus Fire types have an advantage over Ice types... If Damien could bring his signs in contact with Jokull's he could even render Jokell powerless..."

(Ack! I was sure I'd responded to this already! Sorry!)

[adris]

(No trouble at all, just respond when you are ready)

Faren nods, happy at the assessment, and he had heard that Damien was already here, so accessing him might not be so hard.

"So, do you think we could get a meeting with Damien? Perhaps with your connections with Lya? We can work on the particulars when we actually have someone signed on."

He stood thinking... he was worried about one little fact...

"I will have to convince Jokull that I am under the clears control now... he knows that I have been against this war from the beginning so unless the clears have control he knows I would just tell them to shove it."

[Kender Bard]

"It's not as easy to feign as you'd think," Luna murmurs sadly. "Unless you can get yourself in a mindset where the orders that have been burned into your mind are all that matters. Where carrying out your master's wish is like a promise for water when you're dying of thirst. It's terrible."

[Northen Light36]

Saph hugs his daughter tightly for a moment, then gently brushes her hair away from her eyes. "You'll get past this, I promise," he tells her. "Try and sleep sweetie. We can all talk about this more in the morning."

[Kender Bard]

Luna nods and snuggles into her bed to try and catch sleep while she could.

[Northen Light36]

"Faren, get some rest," Saph suggests tiredly, sitting back to watch over his daughter. "We can plan this out in the morning."

[adris]

Faren smiled a quick smile and went to the portal that lead to his room. He nodded and looked towards Saph.

"I know that you have to watch the girl so if you need me to take watch for a while just holler, believe me when I say that I probably won't be able to sleep tonight anyway... again."

He turned back and grabbed his bladed tonfa, remembering that he dropped them before. Then with a chuckle he turned the corner and walked back to his room where he sat on his bed and sank into deep thought.
