    Default Meem's Carrion Crown IC

    You arrive early in the day to the funeral of your old friend Petros Lorrimor. You are immediately greeted by Kendra, his daughter. She leads you towards the entrance to the Restlands, where her fathers coffin remains, his body still as it was in life, even in death. She begins talking once all four of you have caught your breath. "Thank you for coming. It means a lot to me that you've come." She points out quietly how few others have come, and then starts talking again. "I don't know who you were to him, but we'll talk about that after the funeral, i promise. That and the will." She closes her eyes, obviously red from having cried so hard in recent days. "Would any of you be willing to help as Pallbearers? There aren't very many people to help." She smiles softly, and waits for the answer, along with any questions.

    "It would be an honor to be a pallbearer." Stein steps forward, and extends his hand. "My condolences as well. Your father was a great man. "

    "I have never been a pallbearer. But i'll gladly help in anyway I can." replyed Legault who remained behind the other three as his voice was muffled by the mask he wore over the lower part of his face as it seemed he was trying to hide from the others.

    She had managed to press her small frame through the crowd gathered about the coffin, her hair was wind-blown and wild and although the scene was sad her eyes still shone with a gentle sort of kindness. She came to an abrupt stop beside the woman asking for pallbearers and raised her hand pointedly into the air. When she spoke her voice held a soft, Irish lilt, "I volunteer to be one of this honorable mans pallbearers Ma'am."

    The male Schwarz grinned underneath his dark, mysterious look. He turned his back upon the four other organisms gathered around him, waving them off in a rude fashion. "I'll have no part in that, you three look well enough."

    As Mercy, Stein, and Legault take their places around the coffin, three more men take places to help, and Kendra leads the way, assumably with Schwarz following her, the six pallbearers following behind her. She leads the party and companions towards the grave site, and as they turn a corner onto a path called the Eversleep, they see a group of about a dozen angry looking men, the largest of which calls out the moment he sees the procession.

    "That's far enough. We been talking, and we don't want Lorrimor buried in the Restlands. You can take him upriver and bury him there if you want, but he ain't goin' in the ground here!"

    Kendra responds angrily and swiftly. "What are you talking about? I arranged it with Father Grimburrow. He's waiting for us! The grave's already been..."

    You don't get it, Woman. We won't have a necromancer buried in the same place as our kin. I suggest you move out while you still can. Folk are pretty upset about this right now.

    Kendra snaps angrily. "Necromancy!? Are you really that ignorant?"

    Dr. Stein

    Calling to the brute behind them, Stein asks the man to hold his place on the coffin for a moment. "You're sure you have the plot ready, and everything, my dear?" Before the woman can make the affirmative, Dr. Stein raises his hands, speaks, and an explosion of colours rains over the jerks standing in their way.

    About half of the men in front of the group move forward as they see Dr. Stein switch places with Schwarz, brandishing their weaponry as they approach slowly. As they do, Stein's outstretched hand bursts into a spread of bright colors, causing three of the threatening men to fall to the ground unconscious, unable to resist the power of his magic. The remaining three step forward, with a pitchfork, a hoe, and a shovel, respectively, each out of range of the spells area, while the remaining six men back up a good fair distance, already afraid to fight.

    Legault would let go on his side of the coffin leting the rest hold it up which it would now be alittle heavy for the other person that was on the other side of it. He would then let his right hand fall towords to the hilt of his rapier that would be at his left side where he would unseathed it showing off the blade to the group of men infront of them as he steped infront of the older gentalmen named Stein.

    Schwarz had gone missing from his spot on the coffin all of a sudden. At the same time, a fist made contact with the male wielding a pitch fork. Schwarz's black hair drifting in the wind, standing in front of the Dr. Stein. "You owe me about 10, 000 yen, useless."

    As both Legault and Schwarz let go of their coffins suddenly, the other pallbearers find themselves unable to keep holding it due to the surprise, and it tumbles down one side, the body half sliding out of the coffin as it hits the ground. Kendra shrieks and rushes to her fathers body, as the others look on with obvious surprise at the carelessness.

    Mercy watched the mans body tumble from his coffin in silence. A cold fury was building up within her and her hands clenched into tight fists at her side as she set her jaw. Furious eyes rose to glare daggers at the men who had begun this and she took several quick steps away from the toppled coffin towards the group, oblivious of the possible dangers. "How could you DARE disrespect the dead of any kind, is this any way to treat a morning family!" Her tone seemed to rise above all the others, her Irish accent becoming thick and undeniable as she shouted furiously. Seeming to rise silently from nowhere her companion, Rat stepped out from behind her. His thick hackles where risen in a rage that mirrored hers and his canines where bared as he growl furiously towards the aggressors. He was a large, muscular creature, although his build was more of lean muscle rather then thick, a scar criss-crossed his right eye, the other was a bright golden that blended in with his timber coat, he stood defensively before the group of people, her legs sprawled and muscles tensed.

    The man that Schwarz punched drops his weapon in awe, and following that falls to the ground, unconscious. The other two move besides Schwarz, swinging their weapons in unison to try and knock him out and get to the mage.

    Schwarz

    Rubbing his head, his fingers trailed throughout his luscious straight black hair. Glancing over his shoulder whilst his palm dropped to the back of his neck, rubbing the flesh. Looking towards the man known as Stein who now helped the female to her feet, he smacked his lips softly. Schwarz then glanced at the other male who fought, taking his rebellion as a distraction to step away from the circle of men.

    As Schwarz backs away, the man closest to him takes the opportunity to swing at his face, hoping to knock him out still. Legault and Rat both home in on the same target, and where Legault's well aimed attack fails, Rat knocks the man to the ground and rips a chunk out of his shoulder, the man passing out immediately from blood loss. The remaining man just watches for a second, and then bolts, running away.

    As the people among the procession help the Professors body back into the coffin, an elderly man dressed in robes of the clergy approaches, hearing the fight. As he approaches, Kendra looks at the collapsed men, then turns to the party. "I'm so sorry for that, i don't know what got into them. I shouldn't have needed to get you involved with thugs like those."

    As the priest approaches, he takes hold of his Holy symbol, and a burst of energy emanates from him, healing the wounds of anyone and everyone within the battlefield. The thugs all get up and skulk away, their will to fight drained by the beating they took.

    She had waited patiently for Rat to approach her. The wolf came slinking over to her, its head held low to the ground and it's ears perked forward. She reached her hand out, as if in greeting and Rat pressed his head into her palm, a soft whine rumbling in his throat as she scratched across his skull. "That's a good boy Rat, way to show 'em." Her gaze flickered over towards the men as she watched to ensure they needed no help replacing the elderly mans coffin. She kept her hand placed into the soft fur of Rats head.

    Schwarz nodded back to the doctor, feeling more of a respect to that male than the other members of the party because of his strength. Schwarz returned over to the coffin, looking down upon it with a blank expression. Well, that's over. Let's hurry up and move on, I'm starving. Schwarz then turned, and continued to walk ahead, having no care for anything behind him once more.

    Mercy patted Rats head once more in a fond manner before whistling lowly to him, his ears flickered forward in her direction, his head cocking to the side before he turned and vanished back into the woods. Turning on the bare balls of her feet she rushed over behind the male calling out for help and grasped one of the poles in her hands, scrunching her nose and lifting upwards with little effort. Her face taking back on it's solemnly respectful features.

    The party and the rest of the procession make their way to the grave site, where a few gravediggers are still waiting. Shortly afterwards, they lower the coffin into the grave, and Father Grimburrow (the priest) begins his sermon. After he finishes, he invites Kendra to say a few words, which she does reluctantly, speaking of his exploits, and then, unable to say anything more, she asks if anyone else wishes to share any stories they might have with him.

    Stein moves up the crowds, and makes his way to where Kendra was. He was never good with people, but his mentor's passing is an occasion to get over it.

    "Professor Lorrimor was a great man. He kept calm under adversity, but stayed brilliant in darkness. He commended everyone he met to try the hardest, and to do their best. When heard of my new studies, he didn't do as others, and shun me. He embraced me, and my work, and told me how noble I am for such a concept. Lorrimor didn't deserve to die so soon, but he deserves what I wish to accomplish." Dr. Stein raises an make-believe glass, and looks to the dead man. "Here's to you."
