    Private Tales No Wading Around

    Rook watched with awe how Lami navigated them through the extremely dangerous coral and rocks with so much ease. She was a child of the sea but it still remained impressive to him. Perhaps it was because he was a lander so deeply at heart. The thought of an endless sea of grass excited him more...

    The young man just gave her a nod when she told him she would think of something. Good. Rook wanted to give her something she actually wanted rather than try in vain to figure it out. Her being happy with things was as important as everything else after all. He pulled the oars up as instructed...

    Private Tales No Wading Around

    The reply and following question both seemed a bit odd to Rook. Lami usually seemed like a woman who knew what she wanted. Maybe not how to get it but knew what she wanted. Her telling him she didn't know was like Rook saying he didn't want to eat dinner. It could and did happen but was so rare...

    Private Tales No Wading Around

    Lander ways. Daily life. Both things that Rook certainly didn't want Lami learning from the Shallows. That place was miserable and harsh. Going without the common thread amongst them all. Some were good people who did their best to share with others. Some were thugs and thieves out there looking...

    The rowing went about like it always did till they got a ways away from the port. Then the boat got faster. Rook knew it wasn't because of him. Steady and paced for the long haul that was what he had been taught. That was what Rook was doing. So this swiftness must be because of Lami. His eyes...

    "You know the seas better than anyone I know and I like being around you. Perfect person to spend a few days with." Rook answered without any hesitation. A smile was offered to her and then he turned around. The boat he had taken for the job needed to get readied to leave. Was one of the many...

    Private Tales No Wading Around

    Not meeting anyone else and no plans on singing for landers? Looked like Lami was free to join him then after all. A sigh of relief came from Rook upon hearing this. A smile crept back onto his face. "Good.... So anything you need to do to get ready to go? Going to be gone for a few days for...

    The dock was as popular as ever, although more crowded right now than normal due to all the repairs going on. This meant it was a bit of a miracle that Rook had found a nice spot that was free of people if not of cargo in various kinds of containers for transport and storage. When Lami finally...

    Private Tales No Wading Around

    Alliria was a mess following the eclipse. Somehow people survived. People from the Shallows that is. The upper city and its wealthy inhabitants always found a way to avoid danger. Gold was just too valuable for those without it to afford to say no. But this turned into a strange boon for Rook...

    Fate - First Reply A Morning Strait

    A smile crossed his face as the green girl went from her terrified state to back to her chipper chatter. She was certainly feeling better. He gave her a couple pats on the head then stood up. A motion for Giibi to follow then he went back to the main room of the house. A quick and easy trip...

    Fable - Ask Misfit Adventure: Tavern Work

    The young man was thankful when the older man agreed. Reluctantly but agreeing was still agreeing. He smiled and focused on his food like his chatty companion as doing. What she had to say sounded like a good plan. Get a list of employers that they could check in with for regular work. But the...

    The Syzygy State of Emergency

    Giibi went full terrified goblin as Rook held her close to him in his arm. The wind was horrible. The sun was nowhere. The spirits were just getting more and more panicked every passing moment. And the speed at which the fancy man and his guard moved was telling of how impatient and nervous they...

    The Syzygy State of Emergency

    The young man was anxious as he followed along behind the well dressed man and his bodyguard. The wind was picking up worse than usual. It whipped around nearly as quickly as his goblin roomie talked. Spirits flew about erratic. Usually they were more perceptive and keen on what was going on...

    Fable - Ask Misfit Adventure: Tavern Work

    Rook couldn't help but smile when Giibi went on her little goblin rant. The only part that worried him was the part about him not being safe from her. That wasn't a joke. He knew it. She knew it. Yet the green girl acted like it was. Goblins sure could be terrifying how they made completely...

    The Syzygy State of Emergency

    The night had been restless for Rook. Dreams filled with a thousand different voices all screaming a thousand different things at him. Warnings. Prophecies of doom. Calls to arm. And those were just the ones he could make out from the emotions behind them not the words themselves. No single word...
