OOC:Nope its not! hop in!
Once i had followed the girl out the short elf returned, "Did you rest well?" she asked us. "yes, wonderfully, thank you." She nodded and continued to talk to us about the nature of the quest. I was paying attention but i really perked up at the mention of another that was supposed to be on our quest..... OOC: there, you're in!! now for Kalile or Legoles to fill you in!

I pm'd Legoles but I'll post here too.
ic: A small lithe girl is sitting on a bench with her head bent over her writing. Her black curls tumble out of her braid and her green eyes are searching the words. Beside her is a falcon with brown feathers tipped in black, it's fierce gaze on it's mistress. The girl is Ranwyn and the hawk is Dran. ooc: Now one of the elves can aproach me.

Then the tall elf aproaches her. The child stares in wonder as she bends down to speak to her. The elf asks her kindly"Have you heard of the valley of mist?" she asks. The child nods her head in a sign that looked like a yes, so the tall elf continued. "Would you like to go look for it?" " We have a number of companions going with us." " Oh and by the way your bird is beautiful," she added kindly. "Will you go with us?"

ooc: Now I'll do first person
I nodded my head and shoved my book into my backpack. Dran alighted on my shoulder, "His name is Dran," I said shyly. "And your name?" The elf asked kindly "Ranwyn." ooc2: Ranywn is young, about 11 or so but she's very quick.

ooc: Sorry, Sane, but ya snore now!
ic: As I listened to the short elf talk about the journey, I was once again filled with that sense of confidence, that sense of "I'm doing the right thing." I couldn't help but wonder if the elf was perhaps influencing my thinking. "Who is this other that is joining the quest?" I asked, curious. I didn't really believe that there would be many other than myself that would partake in such a journey. Well, save for the man that snored too heavily in his sleep. As I thought this, it occured to me that I did not even know my travel companion's names. "And what is your name?" I asked the short elf. Turning to the man, I said, "And yours, as well. Mine is Rowena." |

I looked at the girl and the short elf, when they asked my name. "Seth" i replied and they introdued themselves. I asked "how and where do we start this thing? are we going to a base camp or what?"

"The other's name is Ranwen. Mine is Kalile. And you are looking at the base camp. We will start when Legoles brings young Ranwen and her bird.

"*Young* Ranwen?" I ask, suddenly apprehensive. "Just how *young* are we talking here? I mean, to you, any mortal person could be considered a babe."

"Well," the elf looked very uncomfortable, her poise ruined by flushing and hesitating, "eleven"
Ooc: That's funny: eleven in german is 'elf'

Young ranwen decided to go then the tall elf came back and said, " We are going to leave for the next city as soon as we get you horses, so which one do you want?"

Ooc: that's one expensive horse. And you're one tall elf!
"The valley's connections to the world are few, but there are those who can venture out. My mount is such." On cue, a great shaggy wolf almost the size of a small pony loped into view. He had fur of platinum, eyes of amythyst that held amazing intelligence. He didn't even spook the horses. <greetings. I am warrl of the misty valley.>

Oh thanx Sane I haven't been a young person yet so I wanted a new approach. And I bet you're a very good babysitter!
ic: "The brown and black one. To match Dran's feathers" I said quickly, giving a side glance to the wolf. "You won't hurt will you?"
