    Keyforge Banks

    The old building that has housed this bank for a good amount of time has undergone a few changes. A new coat of paint a new sign/clock on the front. Hoping to drive in a bit more business. The cloak has an outer shell made of apparently very hard glass, showing the intricate clockwork inside of it.

    NPC's have known about this bank as a safe place to keep their valuables but after some new renovations and upgrades to the safe and security they are looking to get a bit more profitable business, namely PC's.

    Hotel

    Jamie sits, and digs in happily as well!


    Heartwater Inn

    Crissy giggles and enjoys catching up with her cousin very much; he'll probably get the impression she really likes this Kevin.

    Arriving at the Inn, she smiles to the innkeeper. "He's my long-lost cousin," she explains, catching, somehow, what the woman must think of them.

    The girl is careful not to touch Milos's hand when she accepts the coins from him. "At once, Sir," she says, and smiles at Crissy's comment.

    Milos will find the room has been completely tidied up while he was away. The breakfast plates have been taken away, but the fruit tray was replenished and left behind.

    A few minutes later, the girl brings the wine. But as she's entering, she stops, and cocks her head. After a moment's pause, she says, "Begging thy pardon, Sir, but dost thou hear someone calling?"

    City Gate

    The charge knocks over several of the alien infantry. They land on their backs, holding their shields up for protection, and try to reach around their shield and fire at the penal troopers on top of them. Many are saved by their heavy armor, but the weight of the armor is also the undoing of some others, whose slowed limbs cannot keep the blades from sinking into the joints on their armor and through the airtight suits beneath. When the suits are punctured, they release a nasty, hot, yellow gas that's just corrosive enough to cause an itchy tingle on exposed flesh or ruin your jeans. The tanks fire down the opening in the funnel one last time, aiming lower this time, and the line breaks apart, the armored aliens grouping into fighting teams to hold off the criminals that vastly outnumber them. One of the larger ones holds its claw up to its other wrist for a few seconds before it is cut down.
    The tanks slowly back away, guarded by a small group of infantry who back away with them, using their spiked rifles and the spikes and blades on their armor's wrists to defend themselves.

    He smiles when he sees the state of the room, feeling relaxed and at ease once more. He doesn't try to think about how he'd feel if Tia was there. When the girl enters and speaks, Milos will furrow his brow and listen, trying to pick out any sound. When he doesn't, he frowns. "Pardon?"

    (going to wait for clarification of something from DC before I post for the combat stuff, sorry)

    Crissy looks around the room curiously.
    But when the host speaks, she tilts her head curiously.
    'Um. I don't hear anything. I don't think?"

    She shakes her head, blushing a little in embarrassment. "Just pondstep echoes, I suppose. So sorry to be troubling thee." She pours the wine, stirs the fire, and goes to head out, unless they ask for anything else.

    She chuckles, her laugh as musical as her lilting accent. "When one be hearing imaginary things, we say it is the echo of the waterstrider's step. Pondstep echoes." She notices that Crissy looks worried. "Oh, not to worry, My Lady, they cannot harm thee. Waterstriders do indeed live in the little garden pond, but they be only insects, and food for fish."

    She curtseys again. "Is there anything else I may do for thee?"

    Crissy looks a bit relieved, and relaxes.
    "Um, well, like, can we get any coffee?" she asks, smiling. And feeling a bit odd to be the one being helped, instead of vice versa.

    HI

    Crissy finds a seat, and takes it, crossing her legs and nodding.
    "Um, yeah, totally. And I can explain my hair being brown and not blonde. It's totally-cool alchemy that my friend Dorotha came up with," she says.

    Explained!

    Milos gives her a slight nod. "Her name is Tia. She's the most beautiful person I ever saw. I had been offered to her." He said with a hint of a smile. "I accepted of course, and she showed me things I never dreamed." he grins. "After a while, a few of the others and I decided to accept a gift, to let us never have to worry about things again, and, well...." He says, gesturing at himself. He knows he isn't explaining it very well, but he doesn't know how much to give away.

    Crissy listens to Milos' tale, her brows wrinkling as he tells it. But she does smile and blush at his grin.
    "Oh. Cool. Um..."
    Suddenly, her eyes widen.

    "...you didn't sell your soul did you?" she asks, frantic.

    He sighs. "I'm...sorta with someone else now, but so is she. And she's human now, to go with the new man." He says sadly. He had given up his humanity and life for her, and she left him.

    He looks down for a moment before giving her a slight smile. "You'd like the guy I'm with though. Atticus. He's wonderful and has helped me through everything."

    He pulls back and sniffs before using a napkin to clear his nose. "It's not that simple. Atticus and I agreed to let her try it with the new man. And even though we're sharing this room, I still hold to that. I...I have to."

    HI

    Milos gives her another hug. "Just please, don't tell her any of this if you meet her." He asks. After that though, he smiles a bit. "Though, I still think you'd like Atticus. He's..." He goes into a description of a tall, very muscular red skinned demon with wings, strong features, horns....and apparently he used to be a one armed ex-soldier before becoming a demon. And he's very loyal.

    Yes, Milos is trying to hook her up with someone he knows to be trustworthy.
