Georgi cleared her throat. "If I might interrupt... We can only do this if we all stand together. And that means ALL of us. Whatever our apprehensions."

Kramo blushed, "Uh, we will be right behind you Georgi."
Looking in Loner's eyes. "I think I'll be alright. You will be the first to know, if something goes wrong. Okay?"
Kramo kisses Loner.

Loner nodded. "All right," she said. "I trust you..."

She turned. "Righto," she said; then in an undertone, as she passed Georgi: "I'll tell you about it later...there's a good reason for my apprehension, beyond what you're thinking..."

“I do hope I live long enough to see you insolent fools flayed alive. You will allow me that simple pleasure, won’t you surfacer?”

Waverly looked over at his charge and could see a wry smile and her red lips, he had to look a second time, for he was certain for a moment they were colored with blood, but no… just a vibrant red. At length he spoke back to her. “No, I think I’ll be killing you soon. I didn’t provoke my fellow travelers just so I could listen to petty taunts. Is there a name you wish placed on your grave?”

“Sigrlinn. And your name is Waverly if I understand correctly. And what is your intrepid party doing in the underdark?”

Waverly thought again. “We needn’t be enemies. We are no more welcome on the surface now than you. Think on that a while, but do so in silence.”

[ooc: where there going to be some adventures in the underdark, or should I hustle to the temple?]

(OOC - well we're being led straight to the temple by the dragon...)

{OOC, Waverly, we are sending Anomen in first. He said he's going to kick your butt back up to the surface.}

As they made their way, down into the under world. Kramo was getting, little flashbacks, here and there. Some of the group, was complaining that it was cold. He felt the opposite, he was sweating. Loner would give him a conserning look every little bit, Kramo would just nod.
"How's things going Kramo?"
"I'm fine Dp, just fine. I'm just watching our back trail, don't want them to sneak up on us."
Kramo gripped his sword tighter...........

Loner drew Georgi ahead of the others, and quietly said: "I hope I'm doing right by letting you know this; I don't want to say anything Kramo might not want known...

"He was in the Drow wars, ten years ago. He went through some hideous traumas, he wakes up every night in a cold sweat from the nightmares and flashbacks...That is the source of my concern. I'm afraid something might happen...to his mind, down here..."

She glanced back at Kramo and saw he was sweating. She went back to him; he nodded, but nonetheless Loner stayed beside him.

Georgi smiled grimly. "We've all got our inner demons, don't we? Darkpoet was in that war too... But we've got each other too. It'll be ok, Loner. Trust me."

Kramo, relaxed a little bit, but something didn't feel right. Then he heard the tell tale click/click. "TRAP, EVERYONE DOWN!" Kramo yelled, as he pushed Georgi down and falling on Loner. Arrows flew by, one hitting Kramo in the shoulder.
He got up quickly, yelling. "WHO'S NOT WATCHING FOR TRAPS! Start paying attention, or someone is going to get killed!"
Pulling the arrow out, he walked foward.

OOC: Great story! The Ladies of the Dark Flame do not need Anomen to be strong together. Hear hear! I really like the "Order of the Dark Flame", too. (but, you can still be a Harem, just not necessarily for one guy...)

Viv: Loved the "she thought he was her true north". What a romantic sentiment! Now, if only.... BTW, glad to read that the mini skirts are still around. Like the leaf tunic, too. I want to be there in autumn!

OOC again: Waverly may be having adventures in the Underdark while the Flames are heading straight toward the temple, but whose to say that they might be distracted? Just thinking out loud....

OOC - Gwalchmai, I thought you weren't going to be around for a few days?
BTW, my thinking on the "Order of the Dark Flames" was that (since it wasn't a harem anymore) it would include former ladies and slaves...

Darkpoet moved his way along slowly, checking for traps. He had already disabled seven of them. Walking along, he found another one. As he was disarming it, Sir Ryan distracted him. Darkpoet set off the trap, he push SirRyan out of the way. Darkpoet took full force of eight fireballs. The fireballs knocked him into the wall and left a imprint of a body.

{Oh man, DP, are you serious?...Did you get bored with us? }

{OOC, It says it left an imprint of a body.}

{OOC Ahh...okay }

{OOC, you better keep an eye on that Kramo, the boy is about a few sandwiches short of a picnic.}

{OOC @DP }

Loner, staring blankly at the charred outline on the wall, sank to her knees. Everyone was silent...

{OOC okay, that's lame, sorry Eh, someone help me out here...}
