Aphail MacRoach:
Aphail stands as the Kings Advisors approach, and gives a small bow. "I am honoured to meet the Mighty Boar, and Strawberry the Wise. We have been questing in the wilderness for too long, and this repsite is welcome indeed. I am Aphail-o'the-hood, Champion of Artia, bearer of the Relic Quarrybolt, Destroyer of Demons, and originally of Clan Cernach."
Caith nods with the expression of a woman memorizing a list for later, but the smile on her lips reaches to her green as a summer sea eyes, not just her twisted mouth.
GM:
Cene smiled slightly, " I am Cene known as Strawberry and this is Diarmuid known as The Black Boar. Also destroyers of demons, Champions of Elvaron, Bearer of the ancient Spear of Ereworn and originally of no-fixed-address."
Caith looks sideways at Dairmund at the last title on that list, and nods in understanding as things begin to become clear even as they become murkier.
GM:
Diarmuid gave a broad and deeply unsettling smile.
Cene looked back and forth between Caith and Aphail and then quickly pivoted to face Caith leaving Aphail to speak with Diarmuid.
" Now, Mistress Caith....do we have something in common?", he said quietly.
"Something nay common, but in common? Aye, I suspect we do." Caith replies quietly, sips her cider, then continues
"I am a herbwitch, as Dairmund names me. There are some cures that herbs alone can nay accomplish, but to speak of them makes folk uneasy. And with hair the colour of flames? It is nay wise to answer the title of witch too readily. Those who taught me my craft are gone, cut down by lies and greed..."
She gazes at Cene pensively a moment then shrugs and adds
"But the red fern is nay a plant to be so easily cut down, even by the wolves of war. Lady Artia has nay denied me her gifts, what ere the law says of me, so a witch I remain, all be it one lacking in knowledge."
