The back gardern of the weary traveller.

*malfurion steps forth cutting the earth elf off mid step*

"there is nothing that you need to worry yourself over"

[People]

The Earth elf looks at Malfurion and everyone else that was there including Kriska on the floor.

"So why is there a person on the floor, the tower saw the spell and saw somone in red fall. That is against one of our laws. Do not act against the well being of individuals. That was against the well being unless there is some explanation."

He looks between Kerrigan and Malfurion, his eyes finally notice the mark on Malfurions tunic where the water bolt had struck.

"Well?"

[Jenny]

Molignue smiled at Kriska, nodding to Kerrigan, glancing over the Earth Elf who had come in, noting the heraldry he bore and aware that his own could provoke interest. He half knelt next to Kriska, concern in his dark flickering eyes.

'I received your letters, which is why I came. Something interesting has transpired with regards to three whom you know, one of whom his gaze flickered towards Kerrigan is here.'

His tone was mild and quiet, she might notice that the cord on which the jewel she had given into his safekeeping was just visible above the collar of his shirt. He took no notice of the Earth elf's words other than look searchingly over him once more, returning his concentration to Kriska.

[Gumboots]

*Kriska reamined quiet for a little while and spoke quietly more to herself than anyone else.*

"So that is why you are scared. I must do it!"

*She looks to her father and speaks louder. Her face looked placid and more relaxed.*

"I have to face my consequences, I can explain later if I have chance."

*She sits up and whispers into his ear gently.*

"I think I am dying."

*She calls out louder looking to the Earth Elf.*

"It was I who threw the blow, thanks to a Water Dragons distrust of any fire elves."

[bedevere]

*Sylor enters the garden, and looks around quickly*

Ah, Kriska. Was that your scream?

Good day Malfurion... General Molignue? What brings you here?

[People]

The Earth Elf bowed slightly in Sylors present and steps forward.

"Sir...."

*His eyes widern.*

"Kriska has just admited to striking someone with a Water Bolt. I believe that it was this Fire Elf that was struck and it is against our laws to do that."

[bedevere]

I know the laws, Corporal. I did help write them, after all.

*Turns back to the people present*

Is this true? Did Kriska throw hostile magics at Malfurion?

[Gumboots]

*Kriska starts to speak and then her eyes go wide.*

"Ye.... Bartholemew."

*She stands up and starts running to the open gate.*

[bedevere]

*Sylor sighs, and incants briefly for a Jump spell. Landing right next to Kriska, he grabs hold of her firmly but not too roughly*

Running is only going to cause more problems. How about you don't do anything that is going to make me have to order you locked up, behind our rather secure... metal.... bars?

*Sylor clearly doesn't look happy about having to say this, but has said it anyway*

[arkaus]

"it was an irrelevant attack that has become more of a greeting than meaning, of any hostilities and there are more important issues at hand so i suggest you release her sylor or are you just planning on giving to zemillias dislike?"

[Jenny]

Molignue strode over to where Sylor held Kriska, he had recognized the High Elf. His eyes flashed somewhat but he merely laid a hand on her shoulder. Somehow, without Sylor being able to work out how, it was Molignue who was then gently restraining Kriska rather than Sylor holding her.

[bedevere]

*Sylor immediately lets go of Kriska*

If Malfurion is not going to press charges, then no crime has been committed.

Try to keep your magics under control as much as you can, though. I know from experience this is not always possible, but one day, someone might not be so... forgiving... as Malfurion has been...

[Gumboots]

*Kriska paused when Sylor had held onto her and said about metal bars, her face had gone pale. When he let go and her father had his hand on her shoulder she twitches slightly as if to carry on running but stands still. Her breathing is quite fast.*

"I will try, I... I.... I have to go!"

*She looks to her father she looks a little bit disturbed and stressed.*

"I would do anything to replace myself in Bartholemews place, he is a dear friend. I would take his place if need be as long as he went free."

[arkaus]

*at the mention of forgiving a small smile cross' malfurions lips*

"then shall we go Kriska?"

[Jenny]

'What has happened to Bartholomew I do not know. However, Bailey Bluenose appeared at Pathway in the dead of night, and was, so I am reliably informed, involved in a serious battle with the Traveller, who was killed, but due to the timely action of the Hunter, is still with the living. Kerrigan, whom I am informed was there, could probably tell you more accurately.'

He kept his grip on her shoulder, his concern evident.
