The back gardern of the weary traveller.

[bauldin]

Kriska how will going to Dvanri help Bartholemew, it is more likely to get you killed

You are not the only one having to deal with Velnashar, I am as well.
Kerrigan stops and thinks

I can help you plant your seed as that may be the best thing to start with


**Kerrigan**

[Gumboots]

*Kriska is still pacing now with a frown on her face.*

"I would do anything for my friends, with this I can NOT see a good man die for my lack of care towards him. I would do anything to help save him."

*She stops pacing, Neptune however is still pacing.*

"I am over burderned at the moment, I am starting to go again! I can feel it, I know that I do not have much time. I am supposed to do so much but I can not and I do not know where to start. I have Neptune to get reborn and keep alive, and I have my own life to lead as well. I am struggerling to do both!"

[bauldin]

Kerrigan moves so he is facing her before speaking and looks her straight in the eye, before saying in firm voice

You think I want to see Bartholemew die, I want him alive right now here with me, but how will sacrificing your live, by getting killed on the way to Dvarni help save him.

You are overburdened then share those burdens, Your are a Knight and we will stick together, we share our burdens.

You are part of the Celestial Dragon we share our burdens as well

and You are part of the Conclave we share our burdens.

Kriska look at me

You are not in this alone, none of us are, remember we are stronger together than seperated.

Do not rush off to Dvanri, I am calling the council, where we need the support of all of them, to help not just bartholemew but everyone


**Kerrigan**

[Gumboots]

*Kriska stops pacing.*

"No I am not a member of the colcave, I had to give something up to ease myself. I will carry on their ideas thought but I will not be a member."

*She sighs and looks down.*

"There was Bartholemew who was the only one who was left when everyone else left my life. I will never be alone until Neptune is reborn, then I will feel truely alone. I called, I warned but did anyone reply? No, not even Traveller has replied to me! My own High Priest, my friend, my..... He did not answer! Now I am to blame for alot, for not making you all listern, not doing my best. Now... now I must do more than my best, possibly more than I can give. I can not give up on the burderns that only I can carry, that only I can tell. I must carry them, I have no choice."

*Her voice starts to raise a little more.*

"I am not going to blame anyone for no one can carry this burdern. The maddness is growing slowly I can feel it. I do not know what it is but I know it in my heart! I can feel it. It is not Neptune, it is something larger something that will be more powerful and is linked to the book of Phropercies."

*She calms herserlf.*

"I have so much and so little time to give it in."

*She starts crying.*

"I do not know how I can get it all done in such a short space. I have it here."

*She touchers her head.*

"And here."

*She touches her heart.*

"Feelings, emotions, thoughts, pain, longing, and frustration plus more things that I can not even describe."

*She looks almost deflated.*

[bauldin]

Kerrigan looks on with empathy

Kriska I am sorry, if I had heard I would have come


Kriska share with me it all, not through words but just share, you know how I mean,


with that Kerrigan lifts up his right hand and goes to touch the side of Kriska's head


**Kerrigan**

[Gumboots]

*Kriska flinches away but then she seems to calm down and she moves towards the hand and closes her eyes. Suddenly Kerrigan is standing inside her meditation corridor outside a corridor that heads towards Eremine.*


(((OOC thread moved to Celestial dragon.))))

[Gumboots]

*Kriska's body seems to shake with fear.*

[bauldin]

as that happens Kerrigan falls over backwards and rolls away,

when he eventuall untangles himself from his robe he goes over to Kriska and checks how she is doing

[Gumboots]

*Kriska just slumps to the floor looking tired. She looks up fear in her eyes, she closes them for a moment and then opens them. She speaks as if concentrating on something great.*

"I have got used to this now, all I have to do is keep calm and my head down. He times it right for when trouble is around."

[bauldin]

When Kerrigan hears that he closes his eyes and opens up the rest of his sense to find out what is wrong,

OOC Sense power 5 (anyone with hostile thoughts against Kriska)

Kriska what is up?

[Jenny]

OOC: Newcomer emitting power, and thoughts entirely the opposite.


Hearing the voice he sought, a tall figure came into the gardens of the Weary Traveller through a side gate, his stride firm and expression mild, making no noise. Dressed in the garb of a Winter Elf, the clothing fairly old and without rank markings, he carried a fine scabbarded sword on his belt, and a haversack across his back. Despite the garments, an air of impressive authority lurked about him. Seeing Kriska and recognizing Malfurion, he noted the other man and paused, studying them momentarily, his cloak held loosely in one hand.

[bauldin]

Sensing the presence approaching he turned and looked at the winter elf,
in a manner of respect, Kerrigan asked

Sorry to be rude but who are you?

OOC read surface thoughts on the reply


**Kerrigan**

[Jenny]

OOC: thank the gods she is safe and wondering who he is speaking to


His tone was mild, his gaze resting lightly on the speaker

'I am General Lazlo Molignue, Kriskas father. You are?

[Gumboots]

*Kriska speaks with a strained voice, concentration on her face, she turned her head at the voice and waves to him. Beads of sweat on her bow, she is still lying on the floor.*

"Hi Dad, meet Kerrigan.... Kerrigan my fatheeeerrrrrr!"

*She screws her face up and then she concentrates once more, she manages to speak.*

"That is not why he is like this."

*She looks up at the sky.*

[People]

A Earth elf comes out of the Tavern with his sword drawn, he looks worried.

"Who, shot off the water bolt? Did it hit anyone?"

He looks from one to the other, he bares Zemilia's crest on his chest with the added Coshwood crest.
