(MorganK) Come on man, how do you think I knew about the boat you needed... I've spoken with the crew that you hired (MorganK) * Becker looks worried (MorganK) I don't care what happens to me. Is she safe? (MorganK) * MorganK looks at Fuchs (MorganK) lets get him off to the cells (MorganK) **Fuchs nods, arms crossed* ** You're now known as Becker (@Becker) Where is she?! *he looks angry* what have you done with her? (MorganK) You really have no idea she had arranged to have you thrown overboard do you? (@Becker) She wouldn't. She loves me. (MorganK) Thats what her husband thought * @Becker scowls at Morgan (@Becker) Her husband was a brute, and an adulterer. If your family had cared about her, one of you would have protected her from him! * MorganK nods (MorganK) what with her being such an innocent (@Becker) That's your cousin, how can you be so callous! (@Becker) **Claudia watches, looking vaguely amused* * MorganK looks troubled (@Becker) *Fuchs looks at the assembled parties, waiting to see what Morgan does* (MorganK) Quite easily, since I'm a monster * @Becker frowns (@Becker) What have you done to her? * MorganK looks at Fuchs (MorganK) take him to the cells please (@Becker) **Fuchs moves towards him, and Becker springs suddenly out of reach. He sprints towards the tree line * MorganK sighs, fetching a dagger from his belt and throwing it at Beckers leg * @Becker yelps, though continues to flee at a greatly reduced pace * MorganK does the same again * @Becker gets hit again, hobbling now * MorganK sets off after him, keeping an eye out for his daggers (@Becker) **he easily finds them as well as the wounded man* * MorganK puts the daggers back in his belt before dragging Becker back to the road * @Becker is cursing and loudly causing a fuss * MorganK looks at Fuchs (MorganK) should be less of an escape artist now (@Becker) *The colonel nods, taking some rope from his pocket, and binding his hands behind his back * @Becker continues shouting about how it is unlawful arrest, and how it shouldn't be allowed * MorganK shrugs (@Becker) **Fuchs, Claudia and Morgan head back towards the town, Becker in tow. It's very dark when they get there, and again it strikes Morgan that the warmth that clung to the evenings of the Eisen summer is starting to lesson as they head towards September, an unpleasant time of the year for him. Looming before him is Dietlinde's birthday, just 11 days away, and barely more than a month til the 3rd anniversary of their deaths (@Becker) **the jail is quiet, and the guards sombre when they arrive** * MorganK nods to the guards (MorganK) gentlemen (@Becker) **they bow, but it's clear they'd rather be elsewhere** My lord (@Becker) ((Anything you want doing here?)) (MorganK) ((no)) (@Becker) **With Becker settled and contained, the three of them head back out onto the market square. The sound of piano and laughter spills from the brothel Yensid resides over* (@Becker) **Claudia glances at it briefly (@Becker) **Fuchs, meanwhile, stares back towards the town ** You're now known as Fuchs (@Fuchs) He'll hang I expect * MorganK nods (MorganK) good * @Fuchs nods slowly (@Fuchs) It seems like things have come to positive conclusion (MorganK) So far... there's still the variable of my father * @Fuchs checks his pocket watch (@Fuchs) He's due on the first ferry? * MorganK nods (MorganK) if Sorgi has kept them to a decent pace (@Fuchs) The execution of the montaigne woman will be done before that * MorganK nods (MorganK) I'll be taking custody of her body * @Fuchs nods, obviously remembering. Claudia looks at him very briefly (@Fuchs) C: you need help? * MorganK shakes his head (MorganK) shouldn't do, though I may well change my mind ** MorganK has quit (Quit: Leaving) ** You are now disconnected ------------------------------ Logging started for Blitzed:#7thseaic on Tuesday, 14 January 2020 13:30:25 Greenwich Mean Time ------------------------------ ** You have joined #7thseaic ** stagsleap.ca.us.blitzed.org sets mode(s) +nt ** You are now disconnected (Software caused connection abort) ------------------------------ Logging started for Blitzed:#7thseaic on Tuesday, 14 January 2020 15:11:42 Greenwich Mean Time ------------------------------ ** Reconnecting to irc.blitzed.org:6667… -NickServ- Welcome to Blitzed IRC Network, AndroUser2!

Claudia looks at him very briefly (@MorganK) C: you need help? (@MorganK) * MorganK shakes his head (@MorganK) shouldn't do, though I may well change my mind (Molly) *she nods, but he knows she is intrigued about the purpose of this. They ride through Fischler, passing the sword of redemption inn. If he is listening closely, he can hear the jovial voices of the brotherhood of the flame. Fuchs casts a quick glance on the opposite side, at the street where his house is* * @MorganK continues looking forward (@MorganK) Go, Fuchs ** You're now known as Fuchs * Fuchs 's horse fidgets, and he sounds a little unsure (Fuchs) Well... I, uhh... I could... but I think she was wanting a rest... *Claudia coughs, feigning an interest in her bridle whilst furtively watching Morgan* (@MorganK) So go and rest with her. I've no doubt we'll need you well rested in the coming days * Fuchs doesn't make eye contact with anyone, looking a bit embarassed (Fuchs) If you're sure... I should speak with his Grace though (@MorganK) about? (Fuchs) The outcome of our meeting with the solicitors assistant (@MorganK) I'll tell him * Fuchs looks like he might argue * @MorganK turns slowly to look at him (@MorganK) Just go * Fuchs briefly catches his eye, looking flustered, before inclining his head and turning off down the street. Claudia pulls up beside Morgan, shaking her head ** You're now known as Claudia * @MorganK nudges his horse into a walk (Claudia) What is the situation with the montaigne girl? (@MorganK) She wants her body burned so that no-one can... interfere with her * Claudia nods slowly (Claudia) And she wants you to do it? (@MorganK) it was a deal I made * Claudia glances at him (Claudia) Unusual deal * @MorganK nods (Claudia) **they get back to Faulks house, and a makeshift stable has already been put up. Claudia offers to take care of Crusader and the palomino she was riding * @MorganK thanks her, heading inside (Claudia) **It's nearly eleven o'clock. Most of the staff have gone to bed** * @MorganK goes in search of the Eisenfurst (Claudia) **It takes a while but he's eventually told that his Grace is in the nursery * @MorganK heads for the nursery (Claudia) **he can hear laughter before he reaches the door, Lars and Oren are sat outside playing cards* * @MorganK nods to them (@MorganK) gentlemen (Claudia) L: Good evening, my Lors (Claudia) Lord* (@MorganK) All is well? (Claudia) L: Yes, my Lord * @MorganK nods, heading into the nursery (Claudia) Sat on one side of the table are Marta, Faulk, James Schulz, and Karl. The table holds around 30 small glasses, several brandy bottles, a few jars and boxes, and a mortar and pestle. Molly is writing notes in a book, clearly supervising proceedings. She has a dark red line across her right brow, and red stained fingertips * @MorganK raises an eyebrow (Claudia) **the laughter subsides at his presence, though they all seem cheerful. Molly watches Morgan, carefully trying to read the subtle signs of his body language for anger, upset, or disappointment* (@MorganK) Whats occurring? (Claudia) Faulk: Ah, Morgan! We are testing out your wife's recipes for the new cherry brandy we're going to produce (@MorganK) I see ** You're now known as Molly * Molly glances around, closing the book (Molly) We've finished for tonight I think. Thank you all, we are so close to the perfect blend * @MorganK glances round (Molly) **They all stand, and Faulk knocks back the contents of the glass in front of him* (@MorganK) Your Grace, if you'd wait... I need to bring you up to speed (Molly) **the others load bits and pieces on to trays as directed by Molly** We shall take these to the kitchen, liebes herz, and I'll return shortly? *she watches him closely* * @MorganK nods (Molly) **they head out, leaving a handful of glasses and three bottles on the table. Faulk waits until it's just him and Morgan* Colonel Fuchs is not with you? (@MorganK) No... he and his wife have... rediscovered their love, so I sent him home ** You're now known as Faulk * Faulk laughs, looking pleased (Faulk) That is very good news! * @MorganK nods (@MorganK) I suspect that the Colonel will be rather angry with me once he's a little more settled with it (Faulk) What have you done? (@MorganK) I practically had to drag it out of him to admit how he feels for her... He wasn't best pleased at the time and I've no doubt that feeling will return * Faulk smiles (Faulk) It was needed. They can't keep moping around like forlorn teenagers * @MorganK nods (@MorganK) nothing annoys me quite like martyrd misery * Faulk pats his arm (Faulk) Well done, Morgan. I appreciate your aid in the matter * @MorganK nods slightly (@MorganK) we've also spoken with the solicitors assistant (Faulk) Oh? (@MorganK) he's currently in the cells (Faulk) He confessed to his participation? (@MorganK) No, but he will... He tried to run (Faulk) Is he injured? (@MorganK) He may have a broken nose (@MorganK) That seems to happen with me * Faulk laughs (Faulk) He will be charged with attempted murder and treason * @MorganK nods (@MorganK) I need somewhere I can set a large fire (Faulk) There is a field near the mine that is nearing time to be left fallow, that would be a good place * @MorganK nods (@MorganK) I trust no-one will cause any issues when I remove the girls body (Faulk) I will write a note for the executioners that orders from you are to be taken as orders from me * @MorganK nods (@MorganK) Good. I'd hate to have to brain someone working for you * Faulk laughs (Faulk) Rooms have been prepared for your family's arrival tomorrow. Our dear Veisgrafin told me it is likely that Edward will also be coming... * @MorganK nods * Faulk nods (Faulk) Was there anything else? (@MorganK) I'll need somewhere to speak with them before they see you tomorrow... I would like for them to not have any outbursts of surprise with yourself * Faulk looks a little surprised (Faulk) If you feel that necessary (@MorganK) It would be unseemly for them to argue with you * Faulk smiles a little (Faulk) It would be ill-advised (@MorganK) Hasn't stopped me at any point... and I hear my father is grumpy if he is not well rested * Faulk smiles (Faulk) The relationship I have with you and your wife is a little different than that I have with my other Freiarrs and Freiarrins (@MorganK) Perhaps (Faulk) I think we all worry about the negative behaviours of our blood relations * @MorganK nods (@MorganK) probably (Faulk) Certainly I do with Isiah! *he laughs* (@MorganK) He's... headstrong and believing he's infallible (Faulk) It is the Eisen way! *he laughs again, but it's clear his son's behaviour is a concern* (@MorganK) Perhaps if his belief that he is chosen by god to rule were shaken, he might be a little less... Isiah (Faulk) But he _was_ chosen by God (@MorganK) That doesn't make him infallible... and besides, it might not hurt for him to not think that (Faulk) Perhaps so (Faulk) **he can hear talking outside* * @MorganK looks to the door (Faulk) **Molly's familiar voice can be heard, though her words not made out. She's talking with the guards* * Faulk follows his gaze (Faulk) Unless there is anything else...? * @MorganK shakes his head * Faulk takes another glass from the table, inclines his head, and bids Morgan good night * @MorganK inclines his head * Faulk briefly says good night to Molly as they cross paths at the door, and she shuts it carefully behind him. She still has the mark on her forehead, and begins to undo the apron covering her dress. She looks to her husband (Faulk) Are you well, liebes herz? ** You're now known as Molly * @MorganK nods (@MorganK) fine blossom... What've you got on your forehead? * Molly slips the apron off, placing it over the back of a chair before going to the mirror. She looks at the mark with a frown, then giggles (Molly) Crushed cherries. I must have brushed it on my forehead accidentally * @MorganK nods, sitting down (@MorganK) it went well I take it? * Molly wipes the mark away with the apron, then comes to sit near him to remove her shoes (Molly) Yes, very well. These black cherries are different to red ones, the flavour when mixed with the brandy is wonderful. *she glances up from her bent over position* if you did not dislike brandy so intensely, I would offer you some * @MorganK shakes his head slightly (@MorganK) I'll pass * Molly smiles, finishing the task. She rises, extinguishing a couple of the candles, and brings him some blokners instead. She urges him to sit with her on a couch * @MorganK moves to the couch, sipping the blockers * Molly slowly moves until she's laid on the couch, resting her head on his thigh (Molly) Could I just lie here whilst you tell me about the solicitors assistant, and Colonel Fuchs, please? (@MorganK) if you wish blossom * Molly smiles up at him warmly, some of the tension of the last few days gone from her eyes. Her voice is quiet (Molly) Thank you, liebling. I've missed you (@MorganK) and I you * Molly closes her eyes slowly (Molly) Will you tell me about your evening? (@MorganK) It was largely uneventful * Molly nods slightly, saying nothing (@MorganK) We caught up with the solicitors assistant who is now in the jail * Molly murmurs "good" * Molly sighs contentedly, her cheek resting heavier on his leg as she falls asleep in the safety and security of his presence ** You are now disconnected
