Maya in Prison
-
//As a point of note, the healing doesn't work down there anyway. Magic null zone and such
As Hammerhand gets dragged off, "See Hammerhand! See how they still betray me! They will keep me here in cell until Tempus can no longer see me, and whither. Is no way for Champion of Tempus to die!", she screams.
-
//And IG with Hammer at the permission of the DM involved in the plot..
And as Hammer moves up.. Ael jumps up to help the Guards, taking Hammer down in a flurry of fists.. having him hauled off to a cell himself for disobeying the Guards orders..
-
The guard makes a motion and several more step forward.
Lad, ye were warned once nay ta step close. This visit be over.
He motions for the four other guards to surround Hammerhand as he again rests his large beefy hand on Hammer's shoulder.
-
As Hammer steps forward.. (I was posting as he did this) Aelthas gets up and grabs him forcibly before he can heal her..
//I'll leave it at that.. but before he gets his healing off, think it would be better to deal with it IG..
-
Aelthas smiles slightly as the Guards stop Hammer from getting to close, he flips through a few pages in his book, not seeming to worried about the look Hammer has or the danger he thinks he represents to any in the prison, as he makes no move to intervene in the Guards duty. As Maya talks, he simply looks to her then looks back to his book, listening quietly and repeating the words..
"Soon my friend"
-
"What do you need?"
-
_Ignoring the guard this time, Hammerhand steps forward and touches her hand respectfully, chanting a brief series of prayers. The first to heal the worst of her wounds and restore her strength, the second to improve her physical strength and the third a general blessing of skill and courage.
"You're Champion of my Lord. Betraying you would be betraying Him." He says matter-of-factly, as much to her as to those nearby._
-
“They do this because I pick up weapon as spoil of war. Was great weapon, and I earn this, by help defeat Drow priestess. Now”, she spits, ”They say I am evil, when is they who shame and betray my friendship to them. In Tempus eyes THEY are evil. I wish to fight, and they have disarm me. They have given oath of friendship, and now betray!”
-
Maya reaches her hand out towards Hammerhand, with a desperate, almost pleading expression. “Please”, she says, “Have Tempus bless me. I cannot feel him here. They have taken everything from me. My weapon, my armor, even great relic of his. Why do they care? Why do old friend betray me? You will not betray me too, will you?”
-
_Turning his head, Hammerhand looks the guard in the eyes. For a long, tense moment he looks ready to break the guard in more ways than he has bones, until he shrugs off the hand from his shoulder and takes a step back. Not because the guard asked so, the look in Hammer's eyes was clear enough, but likely the presence of the far more powerful Yana and, to lesser extent (or so he believes), Aelthas.
He then looks back to the prison.
"Looks like they want you to let you bleed out some more first." He briefly pauses, looking ashamed. "So.. what happened?"_
-
One of the guards standing close by puts his hand on Hammerhand's shoulder
Lad, yer nay allowed ta be so close ta the prison'r. I suggest ye move or I'll 'ave ta physically remove ye.
-
_Hammerhand glances at Aelthas and Yana as he approaches, before standing relatively close to the bars, not knowing or caring why he shouldn't.
"Are you alright?" He says, looking her over. "Do you want Tempus to heal those wounds and restore your strength?"_
-
_Aelthas just reads his book mostly, occasionally heading out to get Maya another meal after he reminds the Guards that no one gets close to those bars. He seems tired and obvious hurt, guilt and sadness apparent on his face as he comes and goes from the prison.
When not reading his book, he simple watches Maya for any change in her condition, a small smile appearing as she eats something he brings, despite the words she directs at him, seeming content to not give it much thought except for the occasional words of "In time my friend" when she speaks of settling the score._
