Antigone finds her mouth saying "Yes" before her head has a chance to consider... due to the gnome's seeming utter sincerity compounded with the novelty of being picked above her more beautiful friends. For once, she is the belle of the ball.

Antigone glances at her friends and sees the icy looks of irritation. Being compared to common flowers was a bitter slight. Being 'runners up' was something they'd never experienced. Deep in her heart, Antigone enjoyed their vexation just a little bit. Might as well enjoy this while it lasts.

"Yes, Baron Straehan, I'd be pleased."


With a loud ahem THEY enter the tavern - slinky dresses, bodies that promise heaven for a lucky few, devil-may-care grins, cool aloofness, bold yet appealing horns... and tails that twitch free of their skirts revealing flashes of their creamy thighs. The only thing going through your minds is... absolutely nothing.

Jayse is quick to recover having experienced the bewitching power of a Tiefling before. These two are like Milaflora from Forestal in that they possess an unearthly, inhuman, beauty. And if Jayse were being truly honest with himself, he'd have to acknowledge that both women eclipse his one time lover. But unlike Milaflora's approachable warmth - sensual and playful - these two have a cold porcelain perfection to them. He watches how they move through the room. It is masterful choreography - a look here, a dropped shoulder there, a coy laugh, a knowing smile. They work the room like skilled operators.

Following in the wake of the Tiefling heart-breakers are their friends. Their light complexions, gently sloped eyes, and hints of pointed ears, through their dark tresses declare them to be half-elves. They follow their friends to the reserved table with less flash. If anything, the taller half-elf is nearly as gorgeous as the Tieflings though in a more regal way. She moves smoothly through the crowd of adoring men. She is shadowed by a smaller and bright-smiled relation of some sort - a sister or cousin perhaps. She is quite a beauty but, next to the other three, she seems almost plain in comparison.

The women allow 'suitable' gentlemen to seat them before making it clear that the privilege isn't an invitation to stay. The men mill about, jockeying for favor while the Tieflings 'hold court'.

The wolf-pack has arrived.


Milaflora glances over at your group and translates, "She means friends. You have friends here you were worried about. Honestly, I don't know why you have problems with that word."


Mila smiles and greets her, saying, "Hag."


Jayse and Mila arrive quite late for breakfast... and, gentle readers, we shall say no more than that!

They see Rashgari and Straehan breaking bread and chatting amiably and decide to join them at table. Rashgari is absolutely fascinated with the horned woman, staring at her horns whenever she thinks no one is watching. Their brunch is a lengthy affair and ends when Rashgari has to head with her people back to their cave.


Mila nods and smiles, "What kind of hostess would I be if I let a hero go hungry? Let's just stop by my house so I can change quickly. If I walk into town wearing what I wore last night... well, I wouldn't want to be accused of being a common Jezebel." She gives him a wink and jumps up, dropping the blanket, unabashedly nude in the sunlight.

Jayse smiles at the encouragement, "I don't believe it. I think if we put you up against these other rubies, we'd see who the real beauty is."

"Perhaps. You'll have to visit the brothels of Orfallen and then tender your verdict, Jayse."

Jayse wrote:
His face sombers slightly as he remembers something, "Something stuck out to me last night, but I've been having too much fun to ask about it. You called me a 'hunter'... what did you mean by that?"

She raises a curious eyebrow at the tangent, "Last night, you were a man 'on the hunt' for companionship. I offered it and the first thing you wanted to do is actually dance with me." She laughs, reliving her surprise from the previous evening, "For most men, 'hunters' if you will, the time between me saying 'yes' and their pants hitting the floor is probably somewhere less than 30 seconds... circumstances permitting. So you are officially a patient hunter."

...he brings the subject back to her, "Straehan was right about you." He pauses with a smile, "You are quite enchanting and skilled. Though the words somehow fall quite a bit short of the reality."

She shivers pleasantly, whether from the cool air on her bare skin or the compliment, Jayse isn't quite sure. "Keep talking like that and I may have to avail myself of your services yet again."

"So I have to know - if you don't mind sharing - what brings a woman like you to a town like Forestal? As diverse as the town is, you stand out like a ruby on a rock-pile... no offense intended to the rocks, of course."

"Some might say that it's better to be a ruby among rocks than a ruby among other rubies... because you will stand out and be valued all the more." She looks thoughtful, debating how to answer. He sees her 'professional' mask drop. "The truth is that I'm here because it's safe and I'm not treated like a play-thing. You called me exotic last night and it's true. That's a blessing and a curse in my profession."
