Eladramere - The Lady and the Colisseum

Agaros had arrived far too late to see what had happened prior. He committed to memory the discussion that followed, and then wrote down the aftermath.

Starianna shook her head and her words seem polite, if not cool, "No, I expelled the one you speak of from service.  But I would not take shame upon myself for others’ actions. My hand was forced due to actions unbefitting a member of Eladramere's guard.  So, if I cannot have such as even a guard, I would surely not submit to their will upon mine. A dual creature of darkness, spit and then neutrality does not in my mind make up the will or direction that Eladramere will take."

The Lady crouched down, green forces appearing under her. “Work with the person who can help you...” With the final words she leapt into the sky and has vanished into the clouds.

After a long pause, Agaros asked, “What the hell just happened?

Mathelian Webber added his inquiry, “Oh she can fly?

Xavier Kross, the general of Helzbelt looked up, and stated quite simply, “Well then.”

Talavar, the king of Helzbelt, seemed partly surprised by that fact, “Ha, she can fly!”

Khadijah Khuwaylid shook her head, her expression covered by the turban. She shifts her weight and her arms cross over her belly. Her body language told of her displeasure at the events.

Skye then asked, “Who can help you. Starianna? And why are they not?”

High Marshall Marla Merner acknowledged Xamaroth’s arrival with a nod.

The wizard with one eye, was clearly surprised, having missed what happened. “Damn...” was all he managed to say.

Marla Merner elaborated briefly, “She wiped the floor with this other being.. as it was nothing. Goes without question she is indeed very powerful.”

Khadijah Khuwaylid then added, “She said he vas not fully formed, zough. \*Shakes her head again. “I fear zis means zat he is yet to grow even stronger."

The ever curious Mystrian, Agaros asked for clarification, “Who is ***'he’***?”

Mathelian replied, “The nameless one. Well, that’s The Lady called it.”

Again, seeking answers, Agaros questioned further, “Does ***she*** have a name?”

Xavier Kross shrugged in response to Xamaroth’s question.

Then added, Skye a word of caution, “I do not think we should even call him by those words.”

Agaros had grown angry, “So, we have He Who Must Not Be Named and a Colisseum of the islands' finest...and that's all we know?

Xavier agreed in a matter-of-fact tone, “That's one way to put it.”

That was when Talavar declared it was time to leave. “Well this has been ***lovely***.”

Brissa Perez, who had distanced herself, chewed on almonds as she watched. The joint snubbed out long ago, and the bottle emptied she tossed it over her shoulder letting it shatter against the stone wall.

Still, Agaros pushed forward in his interrogation of the crowd, “And none of you have any idea what the hell happened other than The Lady showed up, beat up a villain and, ***literally***, jumped into the clouds.”

Skye confirmed his accusation. “Well. There was a bit more, but yes.”

Starianna Stormbrìnger let out a long sigh and shook her head, she does not really say much and her eyes are haunted, "I will get a wagon for the bodies brought, and she should see about bringing the bodies to the temple for a proper service."

Khuwaylid leaned forward and shot an icy glare to Agaros. Her tone was curt and venomous. “Perhaps if you were viz zee Sultana ven she needed assistance, you vould understand zee situation. But zat if vat we have come to expect of one who cares nozing for zee monarch."

Agaros he peered over Khadi, plainly ignoring her, looking to see the voice of Skye. “Oh hello there.”

Marla Merner then instructed, “Shadow, please go with the Queen. I will handle the Helz.”

Khadijah pivoted on her heels and quickly follows after Starianna.

"Handle us?" Xavier asked.

Talavar added, “I suppose we'll see ourselves out?

Marla Merner clarified, “I will lead you out”

Agaros, relentless in his pursuit of answers, quickly inserted himself into the task, without stopping to consider Marla’s wishes. “I'll escort you, Talavar and crew. I've questions that I may get answers to.”

Talavar replied to Agaros, “I suppose everyone does. Now things are a lot less vague, I have answers.”
