Re: Operation: Graystone #15


Flare Nightstorm -

Erisciana has single-handedly prevented their bewitched companions, Kendell and Vardra, from opening the massive wooden door which would have allowed the enemy priest (who Flare has not seen, only heard) & his denizens into Eagle's Nest.

As everyone is collecting their wits ...

Vardra calls to Flare to see if the woodsman is likely to have better luck shooting into the dark, but there is no response. Apparently, he is too focused on trying to help with opening the secret door.

Flare hears Vardra but does not understand why Vardra has called on him ...

No more sleep:

"Sorry, Flare, but we need you. We got trouble coming up the path."

Flare awakens like a bolt of lightning, his sudden movement blows small, loose feathers into the air.

"Thank you, Vardra."

Flare is surprisingly alert.

He immediately releases M'Lady into the sky.

Flare sits quietly, nursing his wounded ego. His hawk, M'Lady, has settled down now and quietly picks at the rabbit's foot she plucked from Flare's mouth moments ago.

As they start down the passage, Vardra finds himself near the quiet ranger. Flare appears to be having a quick snack, which reminds Vardra of his own hunger. He pulls a hunk of bread from a pocket and takes a couple of bites. "You gonna help me watch the rear, Flare?" he asks ...
