Traveling to the Mendefera Mines

The bandit that was a couple of steps closer to Dani stops moving for a second and holds his head in pain, trying to figure out what is going on, the pain gets worse as Dani moves the needle around in her own arm. What kind of witchcraft is this?!

The other bandit stops for a second and looks at him. Come on and pull your head out of your ass!

Dani continues smirking at the reaction as it was one that she wasn't unused to. She pulls the needle out and then she stabs it back in next to where she had before. Again the same bandit should feel pain in his temple again, growing stronger as Dani moves the needle around again. Pain didn't really bother her and having someone consider her skills similar to witchcraft was definately something that she had heard a lot and if it threw her opponent off she was more than fine with it.

Seeing the hesitation from the bandits in reaction to whatever it is that Dani is doing Andras charges the one that seemed not to be in pain and he swings the rock downwards trying to club that bandit in the head with the large rock that he had mined out of the Mendefera Iron mines when he had been trying to mine out iron for his weapon that he intended on smithing once he got back into the city.

As one of the bandits again clutches his head in pain the second is hit directly by Andras' rock, causing him to fall down unconscious. The bandit that is still conscious quickly grabs the unconscious bandit and carries him away quickly, trying to flee both Andras and Dani if they let him. Truly there wasn't much to gain from pursuing them although they could if they wanted to because the conscious one was having a hard time carrying the other's weight.

Dani is still smirking as she watches the bandits flee. She then looks over to Andras and says teasingly, A rock? Really? She then puts the needle away. It sure had been interesting though. She couldn't help but think that this was the first time that she had actually ever seen a full grown man club another over the head with a rock in the middle of an actual fight. She couldn't help but wonder what kind of an upbringing it would take to make a man think of that as an acceptable and usable weapon.

Andras decided to let them flee as well and he raises an eyebrow at Dani's remark about him using a rock. Aye, I used a rock. It's better than stabbing myself and using some magic trick. So, do you still want to search for your herbs or do you want to go and rest after that fight? He asks her this with the intent to do whatever she wants, for a little while at least, as he really wanted that free booze that she had offered him if he helped her out.

Dani starts looking around a little as she resumes her search for herbs, but this time she is making her way back towards the Mendegera gates as she searches. I guess we can head back and I can look for herbs at the same time. She says this ignoring his comment about her magic trick which she usually took offense to. Here however, she had to keep her cool as she was hoping to hang around Andras for a while if he was the type of person that she assumed he was.

Andras doesn't say much as he follows along with her. He starts thinking about how odd the woman's fighting style had been. In truce it had been a little unnerving to watch as it was nothing that he had ever seen before. He wouldn't try to understand it, he knew he wouldn't be able to. I can't wait to get back and fill my stomach with mead. Mead always makes you feel better after a long day. Don't you agree?

(I'll roll the dice for you since you didn't)

Dani continues searching with a look of disappointment on her face as she doesn't find anything that she knows how to use. She continues searching as they get closer to the Mendefera City gates though she realizes that she is unlikely to find anything closer to the city as it was likely already searched by other novice herbalists. Is mead all you can think about. Of course I'm not going to say it's great. It's not very womanly to brag up various forms of Bar drinks.

(And so I forgot all of the rolls as well.)

Tokara with soot and mina head on the way to the mine. soot was trotting at a good pace making time traveled short. but tokara was one edge out in the wilderness as he hope things go as planed. As they make there way to the mine he pulled soot and gets her ready to sit outside the well guarded mine. the only thing that tokara worried about was his lack of armor. This could get out of hand out side the mine if he didn't not have armor ready for battle.

As they continued along in the Cart they could see a beautiful young blonde woman ahead, standing directly in the path of the cart. She was looking at them and saw them coming but she did not motion to them or even acknowledge them as they approached. She is dressed in summer dress and is carrying a basket. She is kind of blankly staring at the ground perhaps as though something in the path has potentially caught her interest.

Tokara Pulls soot to a stop. "whow... there." he looked the girl up and down he grabs from the back his steel hammer, wielding it in one hand he gets down from the cart. he looks for a moment where the girl is looking then looked at the Girl. "You okay there?" He was walking carefully as he knew not was was going on. Never in his travel had he ever seen a girl just staring at the ground blankly. An with recent event that had been happening to him he wasnt so trusting of random people on the road. "i say are you all right?" he said again in case she didn't hear him.

At Tokara's question she snaps out of her daze and looks up, seeing him with his steel hammer she runs forward a little.  Oh my!  You're more than just a normal traveler aren't you?  My name is Vera Brennix.  I need your assistance if you'd be so kind.  

You see, I was on my way to Mendefera to meet Cong Guō so that he could escort me and accompany me to my audience with Emperor Lai.  My carriage and escort were attacked and I managed to escape without harm, but now I need help getting to Mendefera.  Once there I have no doubt that Mr. Guō can get me safely to the audience.  The Assassin must not be too far behind me now and though I have made it this close to Mendefera I have no doubt that an ambush awaits me.

Please help me, this is of utmost importance!

Tokara watch as the women seemed to snap free of what ever daze she was in and runs up to him speaking of meeting the Emperor Lai. He thinks about if this women was attacked by assassins meaning she must be an emissary for some one large and incharge. "of course Miss, follow me i will take you Back to the city. " he turned showing her the way to soot and crackers was looking at them barking like a puppy wanting out. But tokara wondered who this Emperor Lai was, the name rung a bell but not good enough to remember there full status of this Lai person. "just climb in back if need be." he said looking back his hammer still in hand.

Spoiler:

You have my, and my country's thanks.  She says this and starts to walk towards the cart when both her and Tokara can hear a mocking voice from behind her as a man is standing there, seemingly having appeared out of nowhere.  End of the line sugar, you and your new meathead bodyguard are flat out of luck now that Diego Garcia has you in his sights, and I assure you that this time there will be no quick little escapes while I'm dealing with your entourage.  As he finishes saying this he removes a pair of sunglasses from his face and simply lets them drop to the ground.

Spoiler:

After he does this he holds a hand out pointing one finger at Vera.  A crackling can be heard as black electricity starts to visibly form on the tip of his finger at a rapid rate.

Tokara turned around when he herd the other man come out and talk. looking at this man in a black suit with a rather odd method of speach. tokara then noticed he was threatening the lady. "hey now why dont you pick on some one you own gender." he said walking out a little seeing his finger crackle meant he was about to do some thing and this might hurt a lot and tokara was in no position to run in front to the lady to take the attack.

Diego doesn't react much to Tokara, only lifting the middle finger on his free hand in a sign of disrespect while the spell finishes charging.

Meanwhile Vera quickly reaches into her basket and pulls out a black rock that almost seems a little reflective and she holds it in her hand not saying a word.

Spoiler:

Diego lets out a sort of exclamatory grunt from the effort put into the spell as he looses it at Vera.  It streaks forward at a pace that the eye can't follow and appears to strike Vera in the midsection, however Vera appears unaffected.

Diego frowns and raises an eyebrow, Impossible! What in the world did you just pull, hun?  That should have been strong enough to kill you and then chain off and kill every living thing up to 20 feet behind you.  It looks like you're an unsolved puzzle yet.
