Cait pauses at this. She doesn't give much thought to her father, consciously and sometimes with less success than she wants. "I don't know. It might be best to not try and find out too much. Though it could be nice to see who he associating with."Check out My Writing

Cait reaches up and with a quick motion yanks a few strands of long dark (dyed) black hair. "Do you have a pin or pocket knife?" She asks looking to trade the strands of hair for an item to poke her finger and get a few drops of blood. "And can I watch the scrying?"Check out My Writing

"Okay, first, uh, I'm a 'he'."
That should be pretty obvious, Nadas isn't sure why it's being mistaken.
"Second, I already tried a temple; they couldn't help. I only hired you to solve one problem, didn't I? Fade is right."

Astrana shakes her head. "Not on me right now, but I got one in my office. Join me down there and you can watch the scrying as well."

"Follow me." Fade says. If nadas does, they will head for a black hole in a wall, that wasn't there a few moments ago. Fade just goes straight through it and if Nadas follows he will appear in a darkArea with only a spotlight where he and Fade stands.
"Don't leave the light or you won't find your way out." With that he goes on, the light obviously following him. He will look after Nadas, but if he tries to jump out of the light, fade won't hold him back.Grammer is my declared deadly enemy!

Shooting Range
Faye, Koshal's red-and-black blink dog, waits outside the range standing watch. Dipsnig might recognize the animal even if he hasn't personally spoken to Krayger's nephew. The crack of firearms indicate that the range is in use.Spako Highclaws by Ceika.

Dipsnig hasn't seen Faye before. Huh. She's weird, even by the standards of dogs. Amazing what topsiders managed to twist wolves into. He motions the two young wolves to stay as he enters. They immediately pad over to Faye and sniff at her in greeting. Hello, weird-smelling wolf-thing.
The goblin, meanwhile, walks in. His ears dip at the noise of the firearms. Hmm. Krayger, and a younger minotaur? Must be his nephew. Still unreasonably big.My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies. Sigatars by Ashen Lilies, Gullara and Purple Eagle.

Re: MERC XVII: You Can't Take the Pay From Me
Shooting Range
Technically as a blink dog, humanoids never really had a hand in Faye's genetics. Perhaps fey did.
Faye huffs a greeting and begins customary sniffing.
Inside, Krayger is standing gently over his nephew. The goblin might recognize the paternal manner he instructs the lad with the shotgun in his hands. He notices him enter and puts a hand for Koshal to stop.
"Boss, you shouldn't be in here without ear protection. You know that." he says casually.Spako Highclaws by Ceika.

The two wolves smell like perfectly normal animals. They've never smelled anything like Faye before. What is she? Their great-grandmummy keeps many strange pets, and she smells a bit like them.

Re: MERC XVII: You Can't Take the Pay From Me
The Shooting Range
It probably isn't really possible for the blink dog to sub-vocally express to the wolves that she's a debateably natural familiar created by a goddess to be the metaphorical shadow to Koshal to replace the literal one he lost.
Speaking of which, Koshal still has no shadow if Dispnig notices.
The teenager gently places the gun on the table after flicking on the safety, bowing low to Dipsnig. He's clapped on the shoulder by his uncle, grinning as best as he can while still being professional to his boss.
"Yes, I was just showing some of my guns to Koshal. His Lady was nice enough to modify some of the ones at her place to fit his hands but they didn't have a great variety from their militia's armory. If you need the range we can take a break." he offers.Spako Highclaws by Ceika.

Whatever Faye is, she's friendly, so the two wolves ask if she wants to play, through a combination of growls and tail movement.
Dipsnig does notice that the young minotaur casts no shadow. Weird. But probably irrelevant.

Faye barks a happy agreement. Joy likely ensues.
Koshal grins, looking up at his uncle, but an ever so slight squeeze to his shoulder keeps him from loudly exclaiming anything.
"Well I'd be honored, sir, though I'd need to know the specifics. The Brigade does effectively run itself at this point but that doesn't mean I'd like leaving them behind." he says, his tone more formal that it was moments ago.Spako Highclaws by Ceika.

"Right, what the elves do. I think I could manage that." Krayger tells Dipsnig, mulling it over. He doesn't refer to Dena and Kirk as "the elves" in any derogatory way. It's simply a (mostly) accurate description of the two existing lieutenants.Spako Highclaws by Ceika.

"Koshal here is the squire of a knight out in the boonies. If he ever gets knighted and turned out as an errant, maybe he can stop by. And maybe otherwise he'll give us a few jobs." he says with a chuckle, patting the boy on the back. Koshal seems embarrassed, but welcoming of the praise.Spako Highclaws by Ceika.
