OOM All Skate Skellig Dream Magic Weirdness -Part 12

[brave_kreyu]

They wind up staying two full cycles of the Moon with Tyr's tribe.

Time enough to learn the various dances, share recipes, race through the Teeth, make friends, share stories, BELONG.

It might even be enough time for Skellig to sort out how he feels about being among other people with wings!

Tyr clasps Skellig's forearm in farewell. "I would call you my brother, if you would permit it?" he says, voice soft.

"Hopefully," Kreyu replies. "Another mage's perspective would be useful, but I don't know any that I would trust with this work."

She doesn't need his energy, but she appreciates his touch. She's missed HIM too, so one of her hands is tracing patterns on his arm before too very long.

Drinks and conversation lead to dinner, and dinner to their last night, for now, in the House of the Setting Sun.

They are quite practiced at packing now, although they will need to rearrange a few things once they are outside of town and Kreyu can take her draconic shape.

Skellig will hear that Ajax and Koschei are both downstairs already, waiting to say goodbye to their friends.

With their bags on his person, and with one final sweep of their room, Skellig is ready to follow her downstairs to say their goodbyes (for now) to their friends.

"I do not think there are any errands you would wish to run as we walk through town, unless there is something you need to purchase before our return trip?" He asks as they descend the staircase towards the main floor.

[brave_kreyu]

"No, I have everything I need for now," she replies.

Ajax waves in greeting as they descend and Koschei gives a welcoming nod. "Ah, I can see you are seasoned travelers," Ajax remarks as they reach the bottom.

"We've done a fair bit of it," Kreyu replies, smiling.

Koschei glances around, then speaks. "You will say hello to your brother for me?"

"Of course, Koschei. Although I think he still wants that rematch one of these days." She's smiling when she says it, so the 'rematch' must not be something she fears.

[27_53]

"There are advantages to certain aspects of our travel that lend themselves to making things slightly easier," Skellig says to Ajax. "And while this trip home may be a bit extended, we should fare well enough. Especially given such hospitality, by both the owners of this establishment and yourselves as well."

Skellig is also intrigued by talk of this 'rematch' but he will ask her about that later.

[brave_kreyu]

"I am glad to hear that," Ajax replies. He raises an eyebrow at the mention of 'rematch'.

"Rematch means 'brawl', doesn't it?" he asks Koschei, eyebrow still raised.

"Friendly brawl!" Koschei insists. "Is good challenge."

That mollifies Ajax somewhat. "I will have to take your word on such matters."

[27_53]

"Her brothers are good men," Skellig answers, smiling gently. "After all, they have accepted me well-enough so far, so that must speak for something."

Granted, he has only met one of them in person at this point, but he knows that if there was a true desire by Revenin to 'end' him it probably would have happened already - or at least an attempt would have been made.

[brave_kreyu]

Kreyu sniffs. "Of course they did, you're wonderful." Revenin has resigned himself to Skellig, at least. That counts!

Ajax and Koschei both clasp Skellig and Kreyu's forearms in farewell. "Travel well and safely, my friends. I hope that things will settle here soon and I can pay YOU a visit," Ajax tells them, sincere.

"Fair winds and fair seas," Koschei rumbles.

[27_53]

"We appreciate you both, thank you." Skellig replies honestly. "And yes, we would most definitely desire for you to visit us. I am certain will will manage to arrange it, once things have settled."

Yes, there are many factors that will have to come into play and many pieces that will have to fall into their proper places - but it will happen!
