Camp Bon Fire Rumors and Stories
-
_The cursed ones kept in Cera's tree left to go to the cold caves. When they did not return for several days, the druid Wolf gathered a rescue party in case something had happened.
The rescue party returned shortly after they had left, along with those who were cursed. It seems nothing was found in the cold caves, based on what was said. Sadly, two of the rescue party became cursed themselves: Lilly and Serenity. Though Z and Wolf were exposed also, but did not seem effected. The others in the rescue party were well away and were not exposed at all.
Oddly Wolf, who has been exposed to the curse three times, was still not effected. But, even though he wasn't feeling any symptoms, some others took caution and stepped well away from him._

That said, Will advises Tala that he is looking to rebuild the ruin on the opposite side of the Roost from where Kharbeh's tent was, and has no intention of doing anything to her tent.
_The rare scent wafts in the breeze that swirls around the clifftops. Sometimes earthy and pungent, sometimes sweet and fragrant. A scent without known source. And when climbing the threacherous route to this crumbling ledge one is always touched with the feeling of being watched, and then… just prior to reaching the top... the half-sound of scurrying can be sensed on the clifftops.
The ruins themselves seem to whisper at night... voices just beyond hearing. Sometimes soothing... sometimes urgent. There are times too... on cold nights, when the fire hasn't yet been lit, when you will find the stones to be warm to the touch... as though a fire has been burning for hours. Even the tree limbs seem to creak when one is turned away from them... like they move when not being watched._
((Any dev interested in enhancing this little area… I always meant to have a script that would require a 'Climb' check to use the transition points... both up and down on either side. This was meant to be a perch... part of a larger clifface that saw the majority of it destroyed by cataclysmic forces.. a precarious place. Cheers and thanks for thinking of this old elf.))

_A group consisting of Natanya, Shannon, Wolf, Maya, Will, Mina and Aelthas went into the Cold Caves to look for signs of the recent earthquakes. All came out a bit bruised and bloody, but alive.
All but Wolf came back looking slightly ill.. although not anything serious at the moment, they seemed short of breath, a bit pale and shoulders slumped a bit.
Soon after they went to talk to Jeni, coming out looking less than happy._
-
William reminds Tala that Kharbeh's tent was put up for sale a nearly decade ago, as were any other abandoned habitations.

This is one of the hazards the long lived take when making a place among us short-lived humans. If they abandon something for long enough, we move in.
That said, Will advises Tala that he is looking to rebuild the ruin on the opposite side of the Roost from where Kharbeh's tent was, and has no intention of doing anything to her tent.
-
Tala reminds William that the roost is the wild elf Kharbeh's home. while she is gone for long ages she might one day return.
-
_Will's frenetic pace has slowed somewhat, but he continues to work with the Gypsy Guards and patrol often when he is not. If he seems more relaxed and less driven, he is certainly no less happy.
He does seem to be spending more time in the Pixie's Roost - and a careful observer might notice him pacing off distances and scribbling in a journal._
-
Raver and Ael are seen quite a bit, head together, discussing training and tactics. She's often heard to tease Ael about his "pink prissies".
Ael's of late moodiness hasn't seemed to affect Raver's newfound smiles…
and if anyone happens to look close enough, a new gold band adorns Raver's left hand.
-
Star has been seen around Camp… actually seen. She spends some time talking with the younger Gali and seems to currently have a fixed grin on her face.
-
Much activity has been observed of late by Fadia's cave. The diminutive elf has been observed several times heading to and fro with several boxes….
...Apparently, she's packing up some of ther things.
-
Calendel, sitting around a campfire with friends is overhead mentioning running across a large beast in the cat cave near the spiders to the South. He mentions a large beast with a large hammer mining the rock walls of the cave apparently not concerned with Calendel's presence.
-
Though delayed with an enchantment project, Elor has finally departed the camp, heading south through Norwick and the Rawlinswood, leaving Narfell.
-
Tala has been seen to be spending more time by the fires. Often she has her younger children in tow. The run around as the other rom children do like crazy heathens covered in mud and half naked. Before heading home Tala dunks them in a stream. Oddly when the children follow their mother out of the cave they are clean and their hair braided and pulled back. It never seems to stay that way though… such is the way of children who are very serious about their play.
-
Raver is seen more and more in the colors of the Gypsies, her dark head blending in with the dark heads of the Warriors more often than not.
Laughter rings out from the training grounds just as much as the ring of steel is heard, as well as shouts of encouragment from her men to each other.
Even as they wait for war, the warriors seem upbeat, their sense of "compania" reinforced. The Camp is beginning to mend.
-
A golden haired elf has been seen in the gypsy pass. She seems to be spending time there with Sara.
-
One of the Gypsy Warriors tells Genzir to talk to the Warrior named Orgal. He can be found on duty near at the Long Road
(Genz, let me know when you're on… DM assistance is needed for this one)
-
Genzir visits the camp one day, and asks to talk to the guards. Apparently he is interested in any signs of orc activity in the area, especially regarding any reports of orcs coming to talk with the hobgoblins.
-
Will puts the word out that he has a Masterwork Steel chain shirt for sale.
-
_Will is often seen coming into the camp from patrols, staying only long enough to sell things to Shady, then bind his wounds and rest briefly before heading out again.
The remainder of his time in Camp seems to be spent training with the Black Armbands, whenever Raver is about. If he sleeps at all, it is in cat naps between tasks but if tired, he seems as happy as he's ever been.
Those with sharp eyes who go under the tree before Raver rises some time before dawn, might notice flowers laid at her doorstep. If asked about them, Master Nefzen just smiles and offers a game of cards._
-
Raver is seen more and more often with a flower or two tucked someplace on her person, most often tucked into the clasp of her cloak.
Just today she's seen with a just-kissed look on her face, and a rose sticking out of her pocket.
-
Elor's been cleaning out his tent and arranging his few posessions for a long trip. Apparantly, he has decided to leave the camp and Narfell alltogether, and is now making preparations for the long journey south, to Yuirwood, and saying his goodbyes.
