Talarius walks down into the Main room from the conference chamber with Aneesha
Anee§ha : that was an interesting conference Talarius .. ..
Anee§ha walks and talks with Talarius as We enter the main room
Talarius : All talk and little prospect of action
Anee§ha : ~laughs~ aye .. the usual people .. the Ones that have all to say and say nothing, those that sit and ask questions for the sake of it . and those that say nothing .. the usual !
Talarius : Well put My Dear ~assists Her to sit~
Anee§ha pauses as Talarius pulls out a chair and assists Me to be seated and I smile to Him
Anee§ha : Thank You Dear ...
Anee§ha arranges My robes to be assured all is as it should be
Talarius : The place is rather quiet tonight - must be that festival
Anee§ha : Oh yes ... I forgot about that .. where is it being held .. ?
Talarius : In the Stadium this evening
Anee§ha looks to make sure that all the lights have been lit as the windows are few and far between ..
Anee§ha : the main stadium or the smaller one over by the Bazaar area ?
Talarius : That's more of an Arena - the Main Stadium
Anee§ha : I have not seen many House slaves about the place .. must all be at the festival .. tis not good . there should be some here .. oh well .
Anee§ha : is it .. oh well . little do I know . ~laughs~
Talarius : The Arena is almost exclusively used for Warrior combats
Anee§ha : there was one there the other day so I heard ..
Talarius : That was in the Marketplace - Wamph bested some unknown
Anee§ha : as it should be for Wamph is such a Warrior . so I have heard . I have not seen Him in battle spar . but Penel tells Me He is good .
Talarius : I expected the Admiral at the meeting - perhaps Fleet matters detained Him
Talarius scrawls a few notes on the meeting before they slip His mind
Talarius : There's little to be gained by staying here - let's go to the dockside - the Admiral may be there
Anee§ha : aye Talarius . You are probably right . I should have known that with that Festival happening there would be nothing in this cylinder this evening .. but I forgot about the Festival .
Talarius walks with Aneesha down towards the Docks
Anee§ha keeps My eyes peeled but is a little concerned as to the Admiral's whereabouts . what with this festival etc. going on so says to Talarius
Anee§ha : It is unusual for the Admiral not to be about when He says He will ..
Talarius : Aye and He has seemed not Himself of late
kanati runs from the Limping Larl chuckling, she sped past Master Talarius and Mistress Aneesha and ducked under a small table
Anee§ha : Talarius !! did You see that !! I felt sure there was something blurred ..
Anee§ha : There are so many People . strangers about the place .
Talarius : See what? ~turns around~
zânâ comes up the docks and sees my Master and Mistress i walk up to Them and kneel with thighs slightly ajar
Anee§ha : where, I wonder, has Our girl zana disappeared too .. she was here a moment ago .
zânâ : greetings my Master ... greetings my Mistress
Talarius : There she be - greetings zana
Anee§ha looks to she known as zana and then looks again
kanati peeked out of her hiding place, her gaze locked to the limping larl, seeing the disgruntled slave looking around furiously
challina peers into the crowd . then thinks she spies the girl . and raises a fist to her !!
kanati takes the bait and scrambles out.. marching toward her
WinterWolf walks onto the dock
Talarius : stay with Us zana - We are heading for the Admiral's residence
zânâ : yes my Master
challina sees she come toward this one ... pulls her hair into a knot on her head and stands to ground waiting !
Talarius : He seems to be missing ...
WinterWolf : Tal Free
Anee§ha : Good Evening WW ..
kanati ties her own curls back and glares at her
Talarius : Ahhh Winterwolf - Tal and Well Met!
Anee§ha smiles to Him with an inclination of My head as a mark of respect
kanati says softly with a hint of sarcasm
kanati : i only spiced the stew up for you.. punters not like it?
kanati smirked
challina raises an eyebrow with a hint of invitation .. and laughs
Talarius : You have business at the docks then Warrior? Or are You away to the Street of Taverns!
WinterWolf : aye the taverns
challina : The 'punters' always like what this one prepares little slave !! now toddle off and let the big girls do their thing . the sand pit is over there !! ~points~
kanati raised a brow
kanati : i don't take orders from you
Talarius : The Limping Larl or another of the score there?
WinterWolf : I’m not familiar with the area
Talarius : Then I suggest You try the Larl - the landlord, Caldas, keeps a good tavern
WinterWolf : aye thank you
WinterWolf turns and walks towards the taverns thinkin of a cold ale
Talarius walks with the Warrior and Aneesha down the Street of Taverns
challina lets this one's hand reveal itself from behind her back and throw the content of the tankard o'er her in totality .. some . ale, kalana, paga and a little . stew .. from the pavement . to add spice and sees it fall over her !!
challina : just wanted to ensure you liked the spicy stew !! anything you want to say . you come say to Caldas .. this one told Him of you . He wants to meet with you .. ~laughs and turns and rushes in . standing behind Caldas !! ~
kanati ducks and rolls, taking the majority of the mixture, she glared up to her and stood, shaking with anger, she resisted the urge to pounce on the little slut there and then turns, untying her locks, she runs and jumps off the dock into the waters to wash off somewhat,
Anee§ha shakes My head as I see the girl kanati rush off and jump into the dock waters . then leans in and speaks with Our zana
Anee§ha : zana . see if that one is ok and ensure she gets out of the water safely . . try not to let her get you into trouble .
Anee§ha : she .. is a good girl . but lets her heart rule her head . ..
zânâ : yes my Mistress
kanati ducks under the waters her eyes burning with fury and bobs back up, and starts to swim to the wall, looking for a way out
Anee§ha mutters to Myself that I need to have a word with that Caldas ..
zânâ goes over to the wall and hangs over lowering my hand to kanati
kanati smiles and reaches up to grab her hand and pulls herself up
Talarius : Here We are Winterwolf ~sits at the usual table on the street outside the Limping Larl~
zânâ hears my Mistress as i pull kanati up the wall as she climbs back up
kanati shakes her head
kanati : thank you zana
zânâ : your welcome
kanati : im gonna use that girl as sleen bait! you see!
zânâ giggles
WinterWolf looks to the keeper of the tavern and says
WinterWolf : your coldest ale
a serving girl comes to the table
WinterWolf smacks her tail and says
WinterWolf : Quickly now!
kanati sees the serving girl and repeats
kanati : yea.. quickly now
the serving girl yelps goes to the bar and moves behind it, goes and grabs a tankard from the shelf, turns and dunks it in the water then tips it out then goes to the barrel turns the spigot holds the tankard on a tilt letting the ale fill it once filled spigot goes off i move from behind the bar to the Master and places it on the table
serving girl : here is Your ale ... the barrels are chilled on ice and then brought out front so hope You like it very cold
Talarius : Hey girl - a paga for Me - unchilled in a tankard!!
WinterWolf : aye well done girl
serving girl : yes Master
WinterWolf looks to Talarius and says
WinterWolf : very few slaves as of late aye
Talarius : I believe the Warriors here are entering a sparring competition - are You entering Warrior?
kanati shakes out her curls once more
WinterWolf : I’ve not heard of the competition
Talarius : Well - I'm sure You will be notified
serving girl turns and heads back to the bar,,, grabbing down another tankard, turn and put it into the water then tips the water out, then shakes it free from water, then goes to the shelves grabbing down a large pitcher of fine paga, fills the tankard with the paga, then replace the pitcher, turns and walks back to the other Master placing the tankard of paga on the table before Him
Talarius : Well - We have Our zana ~indicates the girl at Our feet~
serving girl : Your paga Maser
zânâ : peeks up to my Master
WinterWolf : aye she’s doing very well
kanati watched challina with a burning glare
challina looks at the slave with a shrug of my shoulders i continue on with my duties
challina glowers at her from a safe distance .. the glance .. offers .. nay .. promises . future .. meetings .
kanati smirks watching her run away
zânâ smiles up seeing my Mistress
Caldas : Tal Free - are You being well served? ~rubs His hands on His apron~
WinterWolf : I am well served yes
challina cowers a little seeing her Master emerge
Anee§ha looks to the apron the Man rubs His hands on and shudders
Caldas looks to the two Scribes
Talarius : Well enough Caldas - aye
Anee§ha : zana . are you serving the Free Men ? or completed serve to Them ?
zânâ : the serving girl has served them Mistress
Anee§ha : kanati .. stay away from the girl !! she is taunting you !!
kanati : but she started it Mistress!
Anee§ha : ah . .then please see to My usual . and . step behind the counter and see to a goblet for Me yourself . I trust not the girls here !
Anee§ha : kanati !!
kanati lowered her head
zânâ : yes my Mistress
Talarius takes the tankard of paga set before Him on the table and sups
challina looks to she being told off and laughs out loud so she can hear
kanati looked over to her and scowled
Anee§ha : your Owners will not appreciate Me sending you back to their House . in anything other than a good state ..
kanati : yes Mistress
Caldas : Mind your behaviour in front of such Free challina - I'll not tell you again ~takes the whip from His belt~
challina struggles to stay standing seeing her being chided . but then feels the hand of the FM Caldas hit her across the head and ducks off to the back of the bar area
kanati smirked softly hoping the Free did not see
Anee§ha : I saw that look kanati .. ~ leans and as whispers to her~ you will have your day with that one .
Caldas as the smack to the head got His message across He puts the whip back in His belt
kanati smiled softly to the Mistress with a crooked expression
Anee§ha ponders the expression on the girls face . and decides not to tell her that .. it does not become her . for . she is a slave girl !
kanati melts to a kneel, and starts to try simmer down
Anee§ha : you look a little . damp around the edges kanati . .. ?
kanati peered up to Mistress and said softly
Anee§ha looks about at the state of the place . and wonders how this Inn ever stays open
kanati : kanati went for a swim
Anee§ha : you did ? why ?
kanati : because the little wench in the tavern tipped the stew over kanati
Anee§ha : stew kanati ?
kanati : well
kanati blushes a little with a small smile, knowing she shouldn't and said
kanati : kanati sort of.. uh .. "spiced" up the stew for her
kanati looked angelically
Anee§ha : you did kanati !!
kanati nodded a little .. grumbles under her breath
sariah finally finished with the things her Owner had set out for her to do she made her way to the dock where the Guards had pointed her in the direction of, she reached up to push a few strands of blonde from her face tucking them behind her ear, her leash fell softly down between the swell of small breasts, finding the Inn she had been given directions to she stopped just short of it looking around curiously
kanati sits on the ground and picks at her curls hoping it doesn't frizz as it dries
Talarius from Their table in front of the Limping Larl He sees a pensive looking girl He recognises as sariah
Talarius beckons her over
Anee§ha looks over and ponders this place .
sariah having sort got lost in her own head she looked over seeing the motion of Master Talarius' hand, slowly she walked towards Him, stopping to look back towards the dock before moving the remainder of the way to where He was seated...slowly she lowered to her knees, scrunching her nose up seeing Mistress Aneesha was there as well, she lifted her head and looked up at Master Talarius
Anee§ha : Talarius . the hygiene in this place is . . offensive .
Anee§ha sees the girl . and sees the look and glares to her
Talarius : kanati ~says He draining the tankard~ go get Me a refil and tell Caldas the landlord to add it to My tab
Anee§ha : kanati .. you grumbled . I heard it !!
sariah pffts softly catching the glare of the Free Woman, she looked down at the ground wondering about this place and wondering if her Owner was off with Master Aiken doing something
Anee§ha looks over and hears a commotion. sees three FM arguing
kanati nodded slowly to Master and reluctantly rose from the ground walking across the street to the tavern, intaking a deep breath before entering
Talarius : Take My tankard with you slave!! ~holds it up~
Talarius shakes His head
challina sees the silk enter the tavern . looks to her . but stays back afeared of a cuff from the Innkeeper . but . without His seeing . she sends a look to her . which promises the future . !!
Anee§ha : salty !!
sariah smirks a little hearing Master Talarius, for once He was telling sariah what she was messing up on, she scooted back some moving out of the way to try and look around, hearing Mistress Aneesha she tipped her head and looked over at Her
sariah : yes..Mistress?
Anee§ha : ahh .. you now know your name .. that pleases Me .
sariah : not her name, she just figured You got confused again Mistress
sariah flashes her a sweet little smile
kanati walked across to the bar and turned away from the girl, blanking her completely and went to the Master Caldas, and softly she said to Him in sweet tones
Anee§ha : salty !! that smile does nothing . remember . I call you what I will , . you accept it . or you accept the consequences . would you wish to hear the consequences girl ! ?
sariah pondered for a moment, the consequences might not be so bad so she finally said
sariah : yes Mistress, she would
kanati : may kanati please have a paga, of room temp in a large tankard for the Master that accompany her please
Anee§ha : well . seeing as you wish to hear them . you will also partake of them . so . go to the innkeeper . request the largest bota of vinegar He has . and bring it here to Me !!
sariah shakes her head
Caldas : Did you not bring His tankard back??
sariah : no thank You Mistress
kanati : no Master
Anee§ha : salty !! that was not a request . that was an instruction !! do it now !
sariah growled hearing Him, she quickly stood to her feet, she hadn’t been here before so she started walking in the opposite direction simply to slow the entire process down
Anee§ha rises from My seat and stands before her . looking !! and calls out
Caldas : I'll not have My empty vessels left on the street for any to take! If He has finished the drink - return the tankard!
Anee§ha : salty !! here now !!
kanati : yes Master
sariah turned on the balls of feet she looked back over her shoulder to Mistress Aneesha, heading back in Her direction she stopped a few paces away from Her, just out of Her reach, tipping her head she asked
sariah : yes Mistress?
Anee§ha : Talarius . there is something I need to attend too . !! bear with Me .
Talarius watches the mix of castes and slave walking the Street of Taverns
Talarius : Of course Aneesha
Anee§ha leans forward . and taking a step which she did not expect . grabs her by the hair . and them walks with her to the inside if the Inn and to the counter .
kanati turning she flicks out her curls, spraying the last few droplets out over challina and walks out onto the streets once more, pacing over to the Master and His seat, taking the tankard from the table and returned to the door of the tavern
sariah yelps as She grabbed hold of the mass of blonde rather quickly, she stumbled behind Her as she was pulled along inside the Inn moving towards the counter she tried to push herself away though she knew it was pretty much useless
Anee§ha looks to the Innkeeper . and says . with some distaste in My voice for He is not a likeable person .
Anee§ha : Vinegar . !! I want a bota of it !! and now !!
sariah quietly says trying to sound like she had been totally lost....
Anee§ha : or whatever You have it stored in !!
sariah : ohhh this Inn, Mistress, i got so confused
kanati watched as the Mistress angrily seized sariah and wandered back over to the Master, placing the tankard down, she could see that Mistress was about to become busy so she turned to a serving girl and asked
Anee§ha keeps tight hold of the girls hair
kanati : room temp paga please for Master Talarius tab
kanati pushed the tankard to her
Caldas : Vinegar? ~looks beneath the counter and finds a small capped jar of it~ I have this ~extends the jar~
Anee§ha stands and dislikes this place so much I feel My stomach wrench as I wait ... looks to the jar . !!
Caldas : Two copper?
Anee§ha : nay Man . that is not large enough !! get Me a larger one !
sariah stifles the little bit of laughter that was escaping her lips noticing how much Mistress Aneesha disliked the Inn, twisting her head trying to free the hold on her hair
Anee§ha looks down to the girl and holds tight to her hair
Anee§ha : still girl !! stay still now !! ~glares to her~
sariah : she learned her lesson, she knows the name You call her Mistress!
challina nodded and took the tankard, pulling down a bota of paga that was nestled under the bar, she drained it into the tankard and smiled to kanati and leaned over and whispered
Anee§ha : shush girl !!
Caldas nods and goes to His storeroom - finds a large bell jar of vinegar and carries it back saying
challina no one likes her much, ~winks
Caldas : Is this enough? 20 copper's worth?
Caldas sets it on the counter
Anee§ha : 20 coppers . when You sent Me a Kalana the other evening which was undrinkable !! You expect Me to pay You !! I will take this .. and I will accord You the gift of not expecting an additional recompense for the service, or lack or, the other evening and You will be grateful !
kanati smiled, taking the tankard she turned and walked out of the inn cupping the large tankard in small hands, she knelt to Master and placed the edge to her lips, leaving a small kiss of submission below the rim and offered it up to Him
sariah smirks again whispering to the Owner of the Inn...'sariah thinks the Mistress likes You...lots!'
Anee§ha leans down after hearing the girl and tugs at her hair so she yelps !!
Caldas knowing the trade that comes from this group of Free - simply nods
sariah yelpsssssss out as her hair pulled harshly against her scalp
Anee§ha : and . ~ looks to the Man ~ I want a large tankard also !! An old one . !
kanati : she said quietly
kanati : paga, Master, kanati prays it quenches Your thirst
Anee§ha starts to feel annoyed .. the feeling which will settle itself soon . and then looks to she
Talarius seeing the girl return with His paga He takes the vessel from her
Caldas : Aye Free Woman ~goes inside and returns with a large tankard that He sets before Her~
Anee§ha : right . leave it there !! I will send a girl back for it !
Anee§ha returns to My seat . pulling the girl along behind .
Anee§ha : kanati .. go to the counter of the Inn fetch the bell jar of vinegar and the old tankard . place them to the table afore Me . harta !
Talarius : Stay close kanati - at Our feet
kanati looked to the Master, hearing the Mistress.. looking a little confused
sariah trips as she gets dragged back out of the Inn, trying to keep herself from falling completely, sinking back to her knees she reached up towards her hair trying to free it of Mistress Aneesha's hold....really wanting to go see something that had caught her interest earlier
Talarius smiles as He hears Aneesha's orders to her
kanati : may kanati please be released Master?
Anee§ha looks to Talarius and apologises with a look to Him
Talarius : Follow the Free Woman's command girl
kanati : yes Master
kanati rose and swiftly entered the inn once more, collecting the items for the Mistress, she carried them carefully back to the table and lowered with them to a kneel, offering the full bell jar and tankard to the Mistress
sariah wiggled a little on her knees trying to loosen the hold on her hair
Anee§ha : cease the wriggling salty !!
Talarius from His table on the Street of Taverns in front of the Limping Larl surveys the passers by
kanati looked to sariah wondering why She was calling her salty
reneeASP picking up the box, knowing she is running late she was supposed to meet Mistress at Her cottage, to give Her the items in the box, looking back not seeing Master Chubby, she lays the box down as she tries to find another Guard to go with her, seeing Master Chunky not really wanting to bother Him but she has no choice, with all the danger going on and renee the one that seen the Men in the robes in the first place telling Master Wamph about them being in Port of Gor
reneeASP she goes to her knees, adjusting her thighs to be spread, her gems lowering to His boots asking
reneeASP : Master will You escort renee to Mistress Penelope's cottage, renee needs to take some items to Her...Master
Chunky : Aye - I can do that
Chunky thinks - then I'll be on the Street of Taverns!
reneeASP smiles as she hears Him she turns about walking to pick up the box, with things renee made Mistress for her cottage, she goes to the ropes not quiet sure how to get the box down she looks back at Master for guidance
Chunky grabs the box from the girl and nods to the rope
Anee§ha : rises from the seat and instructs the girl kanati . to store the vinigar bell jar . and the tankard at the inn . for My future use !!
