    Adalhard goes to fetch Ilya the moment the speech ends.
    He does a short bow and prompts Ilya to do the same.

    Ilya bows politely "Hello"

    Commander Theolon gives a little bow as well, smiling "Ah, Adalhard. You look shorter then I'd imagined" He also seems to be sizing Adalhard up as he does so.

    Commander Theolon laughs at Adalhard's joke, then says "Unfortunately, no. However, you have my word, as 'exposed' as this place may appear, we're safer here then anywhere else in the city. At the very least we can step down from the stage, however"

    He then leads the party off the stage, closer to where you guys were originally standing (and where Felix currently IS standing).

    "Sorry for interrupting, but that suit of armour you are donning is absolutely amazing. It resembles dwarven craft, but it seems quite old, perhaps more so than the Thousand Year King himself. The pieces respond to quite an older aesthetic than those of modern craftmanship, they respond to the bone rather than flesh.

    It also seems you honour your name in both suit and sword. If I may ask, is she named?"

    Elden shakes the commander's hand.

    With all respect to your sources, and to a good story, I think you owe the late innkeeper an acquitance, if not in public, then at least in private. As far as I gathered, he was loyal to you until the end, and on top of that, the Caissans were disguised, so he probably wasn't even aware of who they were before they ambushed us.

    Also, "Fire of the Wolf" (which is what the name says in Swedish)? Yeah, I'm just going ignore any less far-fetched explanation for the novelty of being able to pronounciate the name in my own language. Even though the 's' makes it a bit unwieldy...

    ...right, forgot you were Swedish. Blame Google Translate for any unwieldiness, I was going for "Wolf's Fire". Either way, none of you would know that in character, so sush

    Anyway, Commander Theolon shakes Elden's hand and says "Well then. Do you know who it is that caused it, then?"

    "That'd be me. I did not properly gauge the growth capacity of two specimens and failed to account for magnifying circumstances which allowed the plants to reach the critical growth threshold.

    In regards to your inquiries, the age is notable in the design, it is perhaps as old if not older than the surnames of the Fey Courts; it seems quite similar in spirit to Evgeny Seantúr's armour, so I took it to be around that era if not even earlier.

    I devoted a good part of my age to the study of eladrin lineages, and when one regresses enough one returns to elven lines. It is also helped by the name holding a relatively consistent meaning since its origin; astronomy hardly tends to change on that side thankfully. But perhaps I cheat."

    Well, you got what you were looking for (except for it being "the Wolf's Fire"), but if you want it to roll nicely off my tongue, I suggest "Vargabrand" instead.

    Suffice to say, yes. But before we go further into this, who was your informant on this subject?

    Steamrolled by Adalhard. And it's to late for me anyway (a quarter to 4 in the morning), so no suitable edit either. 'Night!

    I'm totally ok with it being THE Wolf's Fire, so Vargensbrand it stays.

    Also, Moony! Don't forget to introduce yourself to him!

    Anyway, after Adalhard says it was his fault, Commander Theolon's face gets a rather stern expression, and he says "Well then. I...hope you had a good reason for endangering our city. I can't be TOO harsh, I doubt any one could have expected it to become so monstrous. Even I haven't seen a plant that large."

    He then takes a deep breath, and turns to Bast, Teodor, and Carric, the last of the party to introduce themselves.

    Commander Theolon's expression softens somewhat "Ah. Good to know you had good intentions, at least. Just be more careful next time...the Shadowfell does not often give you a second chance. And no, I'm not from here. One day I found myself here, and simply did what I felt was right."

    You don't detect anything bad from Commander Theolon's words. He seems very sincere.

    As for the history, tell me what it is you're actually looking for so I can actually answer.

    Even with such a fantastic roll, you're not 100% sure. He could of been born anywhere, people don't tend to keep records from THAT long ago. You're best guess is that he was born somewhere in the heart of the Elven nation, which still stands to this day. I don't really have a name for Elven nation yet, but back then it was known as The Heartwooded Cities, since the Elves built their homes as part of the forest.

    At this point Teodor, who's finished sizing Commander Theolon up, puts out his hand. "Name's Teodor. He didn't say it, but the elf over there is Elden". Commander Theolon shakes his hand and says "Thank you. I had a feeling that was the case"

    Commander Theolon laughs for a moment, then after he has finished, he says "Yes, but I presume most would rather not go through what I have. Let's not beat around the bush, shall we. I already know Felix knows, although she's not one to let her knowledge of it loose, even to me. Please, pray tell, what is my secret, Adalhard?"

    At his words, Felix looks away a moment, and shuffles over to stand a little behind Juniper.
