Re: Chpt 1.2 - Lantern Street Orphanage
Marik refrain from saying something sarcastic to Ruphus about stating the obvious and instead turn his gaze toward the rest of the party. He thinks about setting off on his own before them. A single individual would attract less attention than a whole party. Besides, he doesn't know these people and nobody among them had showed so far any skills that could prove invaluable in this investigation. As a matter of fact, they would probably slow him down more than they could help him. It would be safer to go alone, like he usually do.
But something holds him. He had actually surprised himself in the last two days as being much more trustful than he is used to. Normally, he wouldn't talk to anybody, much less talk about his skills or revealing information. But there is something about these people, about this strange halfling woman and this towering dragonborn that inspire him to stay with them, maybe even to trust them. Was it the long years of solitude that made him eager for some socialization? Maybe...Maybe not. He doesn't know. But for the first time in years, he doesn't feel he needs to be overly defensive in his interactions with others. And he likes that...Yes, he would like to be part of a group.
"Let us be our on way, then. If I remember correctly, the riddle also implied these child could be sold at any moment, so time is of the essence." Marik says.
He pause and turn to make a movement toward Rani, before stopping as if he just remembered something and turn to Raszire.
"Oh, I forgot...Marielk'or" he says, in the complex and melodic tones of the Elvish language. He turns to the rest of the group."My name is Marielk'or", but you can call me "Marik" for short. It is what the humans call me by anyway."
OOC: Just want to point out again that Marik opinions on your characters or their worth are entirely his own. But I gotta go with what he has seen so far. XD
