You have entered Four Winds Tavern
FawnOfTheGods: ::The door in the back swings open, and the young woman, dressed in the old Grecian fashion, her golden hair falling in a mass of spirals, stepped into the decorated room, stopping just short of the bar, in amazement::
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he had already been there in the large room, standing behind the couch near the fireplace with his claw on the back of the couch, slighly leaning on it as was leaning on it, his other arm to
XUltimatedrgnX: his side and his tail slowly swirling behind him, he hadn't really noticed the door too much, his attention was lost to the fire~
FawnOfTheGods: ::She noticed the decorated tree, and was instantly captivated by it. Slowly, she would circle the tree, touching different ornaments here an there, enamored by how the lights reflected within the crystal globes that hung from the
FawnOfTheGods: branches. It was unlike anything she'd ever seen, or witnessed before and she couldn't help but muse outloud:: For which God does this tribute belong to?
XUltimatedrgnX: ~his ears twitched once and then folded back as he heard a voice and turned his snout in the direction in came from, spotting a strange woman he looked her over for a moment and noticed
XUltimatedrgnX: how she had looked at the decorations on the tree and then looked back to the fire with a smirk while shaking his head~ A strange one indeed..
FawnOfTheGods: ::She turned at the comment, startled out of her musings, and seeing the strange man, she took a hesitant step back, before replying nervously:: I know of no God that demands such tribute..
MeloncholySeed: ;;raises her head from her arms. she sat in the furthest corner at a table, glancing a little tiredly to the two;; huh?
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he looked back to her again and his wings spread breifly for a single flap in a small stretch and then came back to him~ I do not think that this is a tribute for a god...~he looked around
XUltimatedrgnX: the room and heard another voice and looked in its direction and saw Krystal there~ more of a celebration I suppose...
MeloncholySeed: ;;stands up slowly, raising her arms above her head slightly and yawns then drops them to her side;; its christmas...thats all...just christmas
FawnOfTheGods: ::Her spine stiffened at the new voice, and she quickly turned so that her back would be at the tree, leaving either person at her side. Carefully looking over the woman, she listened:: Christmas....::She thought for a moment::
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he stared at her with a blank look on his face~ chris....tmas? what is christmas?
MeloncholySeed: ;;glances to both strangly and clears her throat;; well theres different stories about christmas...wait you have to be kidding me...
MeloncholySeed: neither of you know about christmas?
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he moved his claw off the couch and raised both to cross over his chest as he shrugged and in doing so his wings moved a bit with him~ I've never heard of it..
FawnOfTheGods: From where I come, we have a winter celebration, but nothing that involved dressing up a tree..
FawnOfTheGods: ::her tone deadens slightly:: Trees are best left in the forests.
MeloncholySeed: ok ok..first off...who are you again? ;;looks to the woman;; and dragonas...as old as you are you have never heard of christmas? ;;looks over to him;;
FawnOfTheGods: ::she cocked her head slightly, and eyed the woman cautiously:: My name is Serena. I am a guest of Logan Eurythesees.
XUltimatedrgnX: I do not co-exist with humans of any sort...I do not celebrate your celebrations...~he turned looking to the woman hearing her answer and slightly narrowed his eye's at her as he examins her carefully~ ...
MeloncholySeed: ah yes...i've heard your name mentioned...;;looks back to serena giving her a nod then looks back to dragonas;; alright...so which story can i summerize for you? the new or the older?
FawnOfTheGods: ::Feeling the strange male's scrutiny, she gave a sideways glance towards him, her own eyes narrowed slightly, before returning her attention back to the woman, chiming in without hesitation:: Older. Older stories are always better
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he saw the narrowed eye's she showed him and he blinked once then let out a puff of air in dislikement to her own actions and turned looking back to Krystal~ ...
MeloncholySeed: alright...remember im only summerizing not telling in full detail... ;;gestures for them both to join her at a table closest to the tree and starts towards that table;;
FawnOfTheGods: ::She made her way to the table, and took a seat, moving it so that there would be equal distance between her and both of them::
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he moved towards the table in no rush and once reaching it he stood behind a chair and continued to stand there looking to Krystal~
MeloncholySeed: ;;takes a seat and looks to dragonas;; have a seat...
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he continued to stand there though his tail raised to show itself and then lowered into a natural sway as he shook his head~ I shall stand...
MeloncholySeed: ;;sighs;; alright...suit yourself...summerized...well its a religous holiday...you both know what religion is right?
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he nodded in reponse to her question and removed the position of his arms as they had been crossed and moved his arms to lay on the top of the chair as he listened~
FawnOfTheGods: ::She cocked her head slightly, and pursed her lips together, but remained silent, as if to say 'I'm not a dolt'::
MeloncholySeed: well many celebrate christmas as the birth of christ...thats one big looong story made short...
FawnOfTheGods: Ah... A day to honor the the OneGod... ::she mused::
MeloncholySeed: to honor the birth of gods son...born to a virgin...;;points up to the top of the tree to the star;; the star there represents the star that marked the son of god was born...many came from far lands to see this child
MeloncholySeed: religous people celebrate this because the baby jesus grew and touched the hearts of many, even long after his death...
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he glanced to the star she pointed at and then looked back to her, a bit curious to this story now~
FawnOfTheGods: And these...Christians call us pagan. Born of a virgin?
MeloncholySeed: pagan is one who worships many deities where as christians do not...they believe their is one god...pagans however believe in many...at least that is my understanding
MeloncholySeed: but yes...the son of god is said to have been born from a virgin...dont ask me how...;;laughs a bit looking back to them both;;
FawnOfTheGods: They call us, who believe in the Old ways, sinners. damned. yet, many things they can not explain. How the great light travels from east to west. How our Earth decends into winter, from Summer. Where the first Laurel tree grew...
FawnOfTheGods: There one, and only explaination is... "it is how God wanted it"...
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he looked to Serena hearing her words~ Perhaps that is why there are many religions for believe in what they really want
XUltimatedrgnX: *~his words were calm and of no offense but only to comment, he then looked back to Krystal awaiting her to finish~
FawnOfTheGods: ::she silenced herself, simply holding her hands in her lap::
MeloncholySeed: every religion faces its time of persecution...even the christians in early times had theirs...jewish...hebrew...any one group of people that shared a different belief had to suffer at some point...humans are just like that
Vv NyteBeauti vV: ::The door to the backroom opened slowly, and stopping in the doorway, leaning against it, stood the raven haired woman. She wore Logan's black silk shirt still, though it seemed to fit differently, somehow. Not as full. And closing
Vv NyteBeauti vV: her eyes, she leaned her head against the doorway, and sighed softly. She looked pale, and weak, her complextion sallow, as beads of perspiration fell from her brow::
MeloncholySeed: ;;hearing the backdoor open she turned her head and saw desta there;; desta?
FawnOfTheGods: ::Hearing Krystal, she turned her head as well:: Lady Desta? ::she narrowed her eyes, as she studied the woman for a moment::
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he turned to look as well and saw her there and how her condition seemed to be so different and his brow raised in curiousity~ Desta? are you alright?
Vv NyteBeauti vV: ::Bringing a hand to her brow, and holding her head in her hand, she sighed softly:: I just....... needed some... ::she looked up at the threesome, dark circles under her eyes:: fresh...air...
FawnOfTheGods: She should be in bed. She does not look well.. ::she whispered softly::
MeloncholySeed: ;;stands up taking a few steps to desta, looking her over more. stopping right infront of her with a soft sigh;; desta...go ahead and get your air...but...would you like for me to go out...for you? i think you need more then air...
Vv NyteBeauti vV: ::she shook her head slowly. She seemed smaller than usual, more fragile, as though everyone around her towered around her:: It is... so cold... ::she said this even as a drop of perspiration fell over her cheek::
FawnOfTheGods: ::she pushed back her chair, and slowly stood, keeping her gaze upon Desta::
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he raised hsi arms off the chair and let them to his side as he moved more closer to Desta and Krystal~ You look as if you should be resting Desta...
MeloncholySeed: ;;looks over her shoulder to the other two then back to desta and whispers;; desta...you look like hell...im going to go out anyways...you should rest until then...
Vv NyteBeauti vV: ::She almost chuckled, as her head fell foward slightly, and before she could catch herself, her body followed, and in the doorway of the backroom, she collapsed. As she lay upon the floor, it was then that the smears of blood upon
Vv NyteBeauti vV: her thighs was noticable::
MeloncholySeed: desta! ;;knelt down and lifted her to sit up a bit in her arms;;
FawnOfTheGods: ::She was up, and moved her hands out, as though to catch the woman, but was still by the table, and much to far to be of any real help. But concerned none the less, she called out:: Desta??
Vv NyteBeauti vV: ::resting against Krystal's arm, she opened her eyes slightly, before they rolled back. muttering softly before falling unconsious:: ...take care of them...
MeloncholySeed: oh dont you dare! ;;moves her other arm under destas legs and lifts her up carefully and heads into the room with her;;
Vv NyteBeauti vV: ::her skin would be warm, and moist, as the fever rushed through her. Her loss of blood would be apparent as they approached the bed::
FawnOfTheGods: :listening carefully for a moment, she made her way to the doorway, and stopped for a moment, to watch, and listen::
MeloncholySeed: ;;layed desta down onto the bed and brushed a hand across her forehead;; desta...come on..open your eyes...
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he stood up and had been at the doorway as well and looked in with a bit of an uneasy look on his face as he listened~
Vv NyteBeauti vV: ::Logan had left at some point, having laid the little girl within a white lace and silk bassinet. The little boy, lay beside her, in one of pale yellow silk. Both lay sleeping peacefully, unaware of what was happening around them.
Vv NyteBeauti vV: She slowly opened her eyes for a moment, then turned her face, resting her cheek within the solf pile of down pillows that lay beneath her::
XUltimatedrgnX: ~his eye's moved around the two and he caught a glimpse of the two children and his eye's widened as he saw the two laying there and then looked back to desta and it all rushed to him
XUltimatedrgnX: in understanding and he took a step back thinking~ ....so thats why...
FawnOfTheGods: ::Biting her bottom lip for a moment, taking note of the surroundings, she suddenly stepped inside of the room, and started looking through dresser drawers, and closets::
FawnOfTheGods: ::finding a large silk sheet within the closet, folded neatly with several more blankets and bedding, she shut the door of the closet, and unfurled the sheet before her, bringing it to her lips. Putting a bit of fabric between her
MeloncholySeed: ;;looking over desta more she sighed, not wanting to leave now for any period of time, bringing her wrist to her lips and bites deeply into her own wrist, her other hand turning destas head and she places her wrist over destas lips,
MeloncholySeed: sighing;;
FawnOfTheGods: teeth, she starts to tear the sheet into long strips of fabric::
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he looked in again and could only watch, unsure of what else there was that he could do~
Vv NyteBeauti vV: ::She tastes the blood fall upon her lips, and slowly, draws her bottom lip in, sucking the metalic liquid from it. Weakly, she brings a hand up, to rest it upon Krystal's arm, and opening her mouth, two small pearl daggers gleamed,
Vv NyteBeauti vV: before finding their way into Krystal's flesh::
FawnOfTheGods: ::wading up one half of the sheet, she tossed it at the strange man, hollering at him:: start tearing... two inch strips... As many as you can. ::looking back to Desta, and Krystal, she muttered loud enough to be heard:: All the
FawnOfTheGods: feeding in this world will not help her, if we don't stop that bleeding................ ::she ripped another strip of fabric::
MeloncholySeed: ;;moved and sat beside desta as much as she could, a heavier sigh then glances to serena;; understood but this will help her a little until then...you stop the bleeding...let me deal with the rest alright...my choice...
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he caught the fabric and looked at it for a breif moment but didn't hesitate for too long until following her instructions and tearing it at two inch strips, though thankfully to the strength in him
XUltimatedrgnX: he was able to do it quite quickly~
FawnOfTheGods: ::nodding, she quickly ripped another strip of fabric, and having a small pile of wadding, she looked to the man:: When you finish with that...Logan has several bottles of bloodwyne stocked in the tavern. We're going to need few of
FawnOfTheGods: them.
FawnOfTheGods: ::Stopping long enough to catch her own breath, she rushed into their private bathroom, and grabbed that bucket, and started to fill it with water. Bringing the now full bucket out with her, she placed it on the bed, between Krystal
XUltimatedrgnX: ~finishing tearing up the fabric at a speedy rate yet done so accuratly, he then clumped it together and moved to Serena and offered the fabric~ Do you know where?
FawnOfTheGods: and herself, as she positioned herself at the foot of the bed, and started dropping the wads of fabric into the water:: You can use a few of those to help bring down her fever...::she muttered, then took the fabric from Dragonas,
FawnOfTheGods: and dropped them into the bucket as well::
Vv NyteBeauti vV: ::weakly gripping Krystal's arm, she continued to drink, keeping her eyes closed, her strength nothing that Krystal, or even a newborn couldn't break away from, though she feed, as though she'd not done so in ages::
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he turned and moved away without hesitation, feeling that questions could be asked later and moved out of the room and behind the bar, looking for the bloodwyne she had spoken of~
XUltimatedrgnX: ~finding a few of the bottles, he grabbed them quickly and made his way back into the room and stood near them all with the bloodwyne in his hands and watched uneasily~
FawnOfTheGods: ::Looking up just in time to see Dragonas leave, she quickly snapped her mouth shut, and started to work at placing the wading where needed, to help absorb, and eventually stop the bleeding. Silk, she knew, was good for that,
MeloncholySeed: ;;took a piece of fabric with her free hand and rang it out laying to across destas head. she watches desta feed from her for a moment then starts gently wipping the cloth over destas forehead;;
FawnOfTheGods: especially if it was spun, which she knew, Logan would have only the best. And so, using the torn sheet, she prayed to Hera that the silk would do it's job, and quickly::
Vv NyteBeauti vV: ::Taking her fill, for now, she let her fangs retract from Krystal's flesh, and feeling the cool rag upon her brow, she sighed softly, enjoying very much the welcomed coolness against her flesh, before dozing off once again, a small
Vv NyteBeauti vV: trail of fresh blood seeping from the corner of her mouth, from feeding::
XUltimatedrgnX: ~moving over to an area where he would not see anything he shouldn't have, he stood there with the bottles in his hands and watched but braced himself for anything else if he was needed~
FawnOfTheGods: ::Having used several of the wadded strips, she found the large peice of fabric she'd left unfinished, and and folded it in half. Then pressing it against Desta's now deflated belly, she procceded to secure the strips of silk in
MeloncholySeed: ;;moves and dampens the cloth again and places it back over destas head before standing and wrapping her hand over her wrist tightly but continues to watch desta;;
FawnOfTheGods: place, and offered another small prayer to several Gods, including Zeus himself:: That... is about all we can do... for now..
FawnOfTheGods: ::She wiped a bit of sweat from her brow, smearing a bit of blood over it, as she did, not realizing. Letting out a soft sigh, she looked up at Krystal:: you should put some silk on that. It will hasten the healing.
FawnOfTheGods: ::Glancing at Dragonas, she offered a weak smile:: Just set them down on the nightstand. She'll open them, when she wants them.
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he moved over to the nightstand and slowly set them down while looking her over and shook his head as he took a few steps back in place and sighed~
Vv NyteBeauti vV: ::Lavender eyes fluttered slightly, as she looked up, and noticed Dragonas. Smiling softly, she quickly dozed off once again::
MeloncholySeed: ;;looks over to dragonas then to serena shaking her head slightly and sat back down next to desta carefully so not to disturb her;; i'll be fine...
XUltimatedrgnX: ~his eye's widened as a reaction to seeing Desta do this but couldn't help but smile a bit afterwords~
FawnOfTheGods: Until Logan returns, we'll have to keep watch. I'll continue to try and stop the bleeding. And we need to keep that fever down. I think... we should brace ourselves for a long night.
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he looked to Serena and sighed while raising his arms to cross over his chest~ Its unfortunate I don't have draconian medicine with me...it would be able to help...even in her situation...
MeloncholySeed: well im not leaving her side until either logan gets back or she starts getting better anyways...;;looks between the two then back to desta and gently wipped at her head some more;;
FawnOfTheGods: Many things are unfortunate at the moment. Like my inability to heal those who are not mortal. My touch does not work on her kind... ::she sighed softly, as she turned, and sat herself at the foot of the bed, her back resting
FawnOfTheGods: against the bed::
XUltimatedrgnX: ~he stood there lowering his head in thought, trying to think of a solution as to what he could do to help~
FawnOfTheGods: ::She rested her head against the bed, and closed her eyes:: Might as well get comfortable... All we can do now, is wait.
MeloncholySeed: ;;she stayed silent now, watching over desta and gently wiping her her head and face;;
