- Celieste and Hankellin... I'll be back soon - saying this, he walks towards the doorway, passing any people that were still there. As he is in the doorway, he looks into the sky, trying to guess what hour is it. Then, he looks left, and then right, looking for any longer alley. - Long time not flying... - he mumbles as he is on the street, still looking for any longer street. After noticing one, he runs as fast as he can for about few seconds, jumps, puts his wings up, lays a bit down in air, and starts waving with his wings, trying to raise altitude.

<As Muh'Farho isn't 100% good at flying, he could land in the ground after the jump, or he could hit the building or wall in the end of the alley, so... dunno, maybe a roll ? XD Anyway, I'll write what would happen next after succesfull fly-try. Feel free to interupt>

When the dragonkin got high enought, he starts flying in circles around the town, to look for the Hankellin's house, slowly raising the altitude.

(ooc: good stuff . Gassy was last held by the left arm, with the two drunks, lol! Gassy is messed up, arm is killing him, and pretty much freaked out /ooc)

Gassy screams in pain from the arm (in Goblin), "EEEEEEooooIIIEEEEAAAAAA!!" As loud as possible, directly in the drunk's face who is holding his arm. Then, continuing screaming, Gassy aims his butt as much as possible ... and SPRAYS like a skunk at his attacker.. as much as possible.

(OOC: I will give you the take off.... the landing on the other hand... /OOC)

The thunderstorm that had been dropping rain intermittenly throughout the evening has fianally blown over and the stars can be seen quite clearly. It is about two hours until the moon rises.

The wind on the trailing edge of the thunderstrom buffets your wings and you are barely able to climb. You see a cleared area to the east of the town. A light road leads up to the wall surrounding this area. A manor house sits back from the wall and a small orchard is grwoing behind the house.

You manage to get aligned to glide up to the wall before a hard down draft almost pushes you from the sky. Your wing joints are almost screaming with the effort to stay aloft. Perhaps it would be best if you finish the short walk up the road on foot?

(OOC: I did not know goblins were kin to skunks... LOL )

The drunk holding your arm drops it as he raises his hand to block what he thought would be a bite from you very pointy goblin teeth.

Your attempt to cover the attackers in a foul smelling liquid/gas is only partially successful. The other drunk got the full blast.

"AYYYY... My eyes are burning!!!" He drops to the ground with his hands to his face. Soon the sounds of his spewing the contents of his stomache onto the ground can be heard as well.

"Brother. You Ok?" The one that had been holding on to is now leaning over his brother.. "Man, he sho got you good.. You stink... Whew.. Ha HA ha..." His stands to really let out a good laugh and just keeps bending over backwards until he lands with a thump unconcious. His head is just a few inches from your feet.

@Maxwell:

As you approach the lit area you pass an alley. You over hear:

"... done. The girl.... dead. Father....follow."

(ooc: AAAHH Hoooo!!!! LOL! /ooc)

Muh'Farho

- Argghh!.. I'll never learn how to fly... - he says this with anger, as he tries to land on the nearest rather flat terrain, getting his hands ready for a hard landing. - It would be better, a lot better if Manto wouldn't keep me in the cage... - mubles rather quietly.

Knobe makes his way cautiously down the alley. He grips his dagger in is his sleeve tightly. The ridges of the handle feel comfortable. His hand has made its home their from many battles.

His pulse is pounding he sees some shadows. He carefully places his footprints and steps in closer to hear more. His eyes had begun to adjust to the lack of light. He see's two men. His heart is pounding with might. His senses become sharp. His muscle begin to twitch. He blinks hard twice to rid himself of his blood lust.

Gassy, still is some shock, and full of pain, sees the unconscious humans, and laughs wildly. Using his one good arm, Gassy pulls their pants down around their ankles. Gassy then checks for others about, if anyone is looking, and Gassy listens for what he hears nearby. Then he sniffs the air for sent of horses.

(OOC:! Crap I got cought up at work. I need to be placed somewhere because my last post is WAY too far back. LoLz Nothing like catering to a party that spends 3 mill in three weeks. 8p )

The landing is every bit as hard as you thought it would be... A stabbing pian is felt in your left wrist and forearm and the air is knocked from your lungs.

When you finally get up you find you are at the base of an impressive earthen wall.

The gate is to your right as you face the wall about 20 ft away. No gaurds are noticable.

"As long as the father meets the same fate you have fullfilled your part of the contract. I shall fullfill mine when the job is completed." You cannot tell which man is talking.

The two men you are barely able to make out are standing near the center of the alleyway, one has his back to you and the other is stand with his side towards you. Between you and them is very little cover and the only reason they have not seen you yet is their focus on each other.

You do not see any other humans around. While tugging the drawstring of the larger fellow's pants your goblin ears pick up the sounds of coins clinking together. Searching further has netted 5 silver coins in a small pouch.

Another check for people still shows you to be unobserved. Horse sent is every where..

(OOC: I understand... /OOC)

(recap: You were facing a knight with amazing reflexes for a drunk. His rapier just missed gutting you. You have your throwing knife out now but his shout of ghouls kind of paused the action.

A goblin had jumped out of the shadows trying to steal your horse but the stableboy's quick action prevented that. /recap)

The knight's eyes finally focus on you and he gives a shake of his head...

"Sorry, I was not myself for a second... I did not hurt you did I?" his eyes move to your torn shirt then back to your face.

"Can I replace the shirt for you?"

Muh'Farho

After getting up, he looks on the gate, searching any doors, holding his wrist. "Shouldn't try to fly again... Never, ever, ever" - he thinks. The dragonkin heads towards the gate. After getting nearby, he tries to get past doors and whatnot. If the doors are locked, he shouts - Hello? Anybody here care to open the gate ?...

The simple wood gates give your touching claws(??) a tingling feeling. THe harder you push the stronger the feeling. No give of the gates is evident..

"Hello. What can I do for you?" a voice behind you asks... It is curiously devoid of tembre.

Muh'Farho

Dragonkin looks behind his shoulder, and then turns around, saying - Good evening... I'd like to get past this gate. Are you the gate keeper ? - then looks at him, like he would like to get the answer quick. Farho thinks - "People aren't usually so calm when they're talking to me... This man probably had to see many things in this world, or maybe..."

The man standing before you looks to be near 50yrs old. His lined face still holds the evidence of power. His eyes though are just bright sparks. His hair is black shoth through with grey.

"A gatekeeper? Hmmmm... I suppose I could be called that. I have opened many gates in my time and shut a few as well. " His mouth turns up at the corners in a knowing smile.

"If you want to get past that gate though you will have to put your back into it.... " He gestures towards the gate. "Once you figure that out and you are through the gate meet me in the manor." He turns and walks through the wall next to you.

Muh'Farho

- This seems pretty strange to me... - he says as he comes to the gate. Turning his back towards the gate and placing it by, he says - Anyway, why is that I should meet you in the manor ?...

You lean back against the gate and only feel a slight resistance and you move backwards. As your back starts to pass through the still shut gate a voice whispers in your ear...

" Only those with business with me may find this house. Come on in when you are ready."
