Elder Scrolls: Interregnum Chapter 4 (Started, Open)

[SPARTANXIII]

"Yes."
He said as he got up to leave with Joncis
"And yourself?"
He guessed the Imperial to be a blacksmith, on account of the very rare armor he wore, yet he did not seem the type to come around coin so easily to buy such a set.

"Blacksmith, make my own stuff. Quite skilled at it in fact." Belkin replied, walking alongside the Breton as they left the Inn. Skingrad was first on the list...so they were staying in Cyrodiil for the time being then...well, at least he could avoid having to take a side for the time being!

 

[Josh123914]

"Dro'Araaj may know a few less-traveled roads from his wanderings, should you wish to move unnoticed. This one can recall a ruin that runs under the border if that helps."

''I was thinking more along the lines of how to deal with the guards, border patrol, we'll want to stick to the main path for now, until we cross the border and reach arenthia''

Belkin took note of the Breton, and then of what he wore. Mages hood, so magic user at least, and Cheap Steel armor. Battlemage by any other name, but is was the slight glow to the armor that gave it away, he was an Enchanter too, or a guy who made a good buy. 'A Blacksmith and an Enchanter...all we need is a Potion maker and we'll have a Inn Joke on our hands' thought Belkin, laughing to himself before walking towards the Breton. He stood in front of him and spoke.

"Enchanter?"

''Nice try, Conjurer, with a bit of destruction thrown in, if you want enchanting Enthir's your man, but he won't be with us forever'' , ''I'm NOT dying!'' shouted Enthir, as Anruin continues his conversation with him ''I meant that you won't go to Valenwood with us'' Joncis replies.

Dresden watched as Luna left, asking him if he was coming. He certainly was happy with how that had worked out, all of his parts intact, and checked his armor, dagger, and rucksack; all there. Dresden strode to the door and out, to both his employers, the package, and the world beyond. It was going to be an adventure.

"Ummm, good-leader-mysterious-person-sir.........he did just say he was an Enchanter!" Replied Belkin. 'So he knows stuff about us but not everything...thank the Divines' he thought.

Astoph lets out a deep, short, silent chuckle, noticing the mistake in communication the two were having before they even realised it.

 

[Thee Lost One]

Idreon slapped one of his clawed hands on Jocis' shoulder once to get his attention.

" Before we leave, Am I to Protect just you and the package, or am I expected to look out for the entirety of our group? One is notably easier than the other, but I will do as the job dictates." Idreon began reassessing everyone now that he could see them under the sun.

" At least 'Urgal' looks like he can stand up if someone else gets close to you, and the elf in glass can probably take a few blows for you as well now that I get a good look at him..."

"This is the first time in a very long time that i'v talked to anyone over more than a kill or delivery." She said to him. " Most stay away from me because i look sickly." the dunmer admitted.

Astoph looked upon the lizard, smirking at him unnoticeably from under his hood, underestimation showed an insufficient fighter in his eyes.

Bites-Her-Tail abandoned her attempts to eat her stale cheese, instead trying to make herself look taller next to Idreon.

"Bites-Her-Tail can defend," she said, gesturing to herself with one thumb. "Bite and claw and stab and keep safe!"

 

[Derek_the_Dodo]

Urgal shifted out of his seat. No harm in speaking to some of his fellow hired "muscle" He thought, and spoke to the imperial dressed in expensive looking armour with a crest that he recognised.

"I once did a job for the man who forged that coat of arms on his work. He was a good man. I hope you realise what a privilege it is to bear such a crest and bring it the honour that it deserves."

Dro'Araaj chimed in alongside Bites-her-tail
"Dro'Araaj suspects that we are all more capable than you judge us, else why would we be so carefully sought out for this task."

 

[Thee Lost One]

Idreon whirls his head to face the Khaajit and narrowed one eye at him.

" My judgement of the lot of you is incomplete... Only an idiot would set his opinion of others in stone within the first few moments of meeting another... though yes, I am so far unimpressed for the most part..."

He tilted his head toward Bites-Her-Tail " Her being a good example... but you are right... I doubt someone who would seek me out would also hire incompetents..."

He honestly hoped the Khaajit's words would be proven right concerning the others, otherwise he was looking to a long hard job... with a substantial payout at least.

"Bites-Her-Tail once fought a whole camp of orcs! Only one to survive. Not even the horses made it." She seemed to become lost in thought after saying this, occasionally bobbing her head or swaying slightly from side to side.

''Firstly, take your claw off right now, these are just robes and if you did that any tighter I would have 3 holes where my shoulder was'' Joncis brushed Idreon's claw off of him ''We will work as a group to protect the package, but if things go to shit, get the package, and possibly myself, to safety, let's just say a group of Bandits would be some of the last people who should get their hands on these artifacts, and I can handle myself, the reason the group was hired is because entire military garrisons could be after us if they knew what these artifacts could be used for, and no, they aren't Daedric, at least I don't think''

''artifac-'' Idreon inquired, Joncis interrupts ''Stop, I've said too much''

The group reached a large patch of grass, with Skingrad's skyline within view,
''Everyone stop, we set up camp here'' Joncis dropped his bag and within 30 seconds summoned a Frost Atronach, got to work on the surrounding trees using flame spells, and used his atronach to move the branches into the area to form 3 walls.
''There, I'll put a blanket over to serve as a roof, this should fit at least 4 people''

''should we keep lookouts?'' Anruin asked quickly, ''no, we're literally 5 minutes from Skingrad, and any bandits or mercenaries that would do us harm have been drafted into what's left of the Cyrodiil army''

''I'm keeping watch anyway'' said Anruin, ''I will too'' Enthir interrupts.

"Well, there will be plenty more talking along the way. Maybe we could talk with the others, and see what they're like. But that Argonian in the cloak worries me. I wouldn't want to get on his bad side," Dresden replied.

"Also, just my thoughts: you look far from sickly."

"Hey, Lloden. 5 septims he doesn't last more than 2 weeks."

Belkin turned to the Orc, a surprised look on his face. "Wow, really?!...Its just, Dunmer, Bosmer, even Nord, they've all said good graces about my family's work, but a Orc? You guys are naturally born fighters, you've mastered a set of arms and armor in your name, you even have your own Daedric lord for Mara's sake! We really stack up to you guys?" he said, a mixture of Awe and amazement that even an Orc would say that.....maybe that need to be a better Blacksmith was more genetic than he thought!

 

[SamtheDeathclaw]

"Hey, Lloden. 5 septims he doesn't last more than 2 weeks."

"Make it ten and you're on. Even though I'm sure I'll lose. But hopefully we can get a laugh out of him beforehand."

 

[A Gent of Villainous Intent]

"If you have no worry of bandits, I wonder why you hired a small army of mercs to guard this package." Mazak said to Idreon. Before the man could respond he was already leaving his company, a small cloud of suspicion hanging around him as his curiosity for the package began to increase. "I did not bring much food for this journey, so I will be hunting if there is any trouble." Mazak slipped into the woods, his bow strung and a vial of poison ready for any prey he might find.

''Not all Orcs are battle crazed warriors'' said Joncis, putting the finishing touches on his makeshift shack, ''My mother studied Restoration with an Orc once, nice woman, but no one was going to trust her to babysit a toddler if you know what I mean''
