A new guard
-
"Basic human neccescities are allowed to Ezachiel."
Lilin says
"Anyone who has a problem with that can deal with me."

//as far as I can tell, Ezachiel isn't getting anything. He's just surviving off the stuff he had with him, and he gets his water from the snow around him
-
tala inquires of star You aren't suggesting I go sit with him are you? If you want to go give him ginger cookies that is on you. He can eat hard bread and cheese like the other men and women.

// @9010fd72d5=ShadowElf:
For the most part the Warriors ignore him, however the one time he slips up and calls them guards to their faces….
He ends up almost "slipping" off the cliff//Aelthas always calls them guards
Star seems to relax about him being there especially when she learns more of what he's being 'punished' for. She insists as an Elder that he be given the fundamental human rights, saying she will not have the Camp seen to be effectively torturing him for his crimes by forcing him to not urinate for long hours and to be sleep deprived or starved. This is not to say she seems to in any way like him, and she is quick to point out that when she was a prisoner of Norwick she was treated as a person not an animal and considers anything Norwick does to be the minimum level required by a civilized place.

After about a week of guard duty, Ezachiel starts looking worse. He still seems happier than he was when he started, but a week of not enough sleeping, being out and about all day, and not being able to take care proper care of himself are starting to take their toll. Despite his best efforts, Ezachiel isn't really a big advertisement for the camp right now.

During the weeks that he's been doing his duty, Ezachiel appears to have undergone a change of sorts. At first, he was looking rather depressed, as might be imagined a person in his situation would look, but after some time, and probably a lot of thinking, he now looks like he has found a new look at life, and has started greeting everyone who passes his post, at times even trying to start a conversation with the other guards.
-
Tala thinks of the names of all the people who were stuck in the tree a few years back and can come up with more than one excuse but sadly mother and daughter are too adepts at stalking from the trees to communicate. Perhaps the errant mage will live a few more days
-
Star may or may not be watching him, and she may or may not simply kill him the second she thinks of an excuse.
-
Raver keeps her eye on him as well, often from the top of the Pass. She never speaks to him, just appears to be waiting for him to make one wrong move
-
Ezachiel appears to be taking his "job" seriously, never leaving his post, surviving on the food he had with him and water from the snow around him. During the darkest hours of the night, he gets a couple of hours of sleep on his bedroll, but gets up before dawn. He almost never speaks, only nodding to those who pass below his post, and only then if they are people he gets along with.
-
Aelthas checks in on Ezachiel several times a day, he doesn't speak to him but does talk quietly in romani with the other guards, they all seem to get a good laugh before Aelthas walks off back into camp.
