He isn&#8217;t any danger to us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Blaze smiles, \u201cYes, still not my favorite creatures.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Miracan looks intently at the spider for a moment then smiles slightly, \u201cHe won&#8217;t bother you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo, he won&#8217;t. But then again &#8230; it&#8217;s not something I ever got used to having around. I know you can take care of yourself. But,\u201d Blaze pauses, \u201cwe make a good team. Let me know if you,\u201d she pauses again, \u201cwant help.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Miracan nods. \u201cI am just a stone\u2019s throw away little flame.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Blaze whispers to herself, \u201cIt&#8217;s not the same.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Miracan begins adding his tea mixture to the hot water.\u00a0 Blaze looks in her cup and swirls it around, \u201cRegular tea just won&#8217;t be the same.\u201d\u00a0 Blaze turns at looks at Miracan, \u201csit by the fire with me for a bit before &#8230;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Miracan nods and walks over to the fire leaving his tea pouch and bundle on the bar.<\/p>\n<p>Blaze picks up her tea. She picks up the tea pouch and the pouch and put them in her bag. She curls up in the favorite chair by the fire across from Miracan.\u00a0 \u201cDo you know where the hunted one is?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRumors\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Blaze nods, \u201cYou will find him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSomebody will know.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Blaze nods and watches Miracan.<\/p>\n<p>Miracan watches the spider spinning its web in the corner of the rafters. \u201cI may have somebody looking for me. I had asked for their help finding something.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Blaze nods. \u201cWill they ask for you?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou&#8217;ll know them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Blaze nods and sighs.\u00a0 \u201cWe all have our place and our role to play.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Miracan looks into his teacup, swirling the last around before taking a quick final swig.\u00a0 He places the cup on the table and stands. Pulling a small moonstone from his pouch, he places it next to his cup. \u201cRavvit needs two eyes to watch our young friend.\u201d\u00a0 He nods to Blaze and walks towards her room to retrieve his bag.<\/p>\n<p>Blaze looks at the moonstone says softly \u201cDamn it Drow.\u201d\u00a0 She finishes her tea and stands, picks up the moonstone and puts it in her bag. She picks up Miracan\u2019s cup and takes both to the bar.\u00a0 Blaze pulls the moonstone, the bookmark and the woodworking tools from her bag and lays them on the bar.<\/p>\n<p>Miracan comes back down the stairs and walks towards the front door.<\/p>\n<p>Blaze steps in front of Miracan, \u201cIt is time?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He nods. \u201cFor now, little one.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Blaze reaches out and runs a finger over the gem in his hair. \u201cBe careful please.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Miracan nods, placing a hand on her shoulder, \u201cWe are bound.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Blaze impulsively throws her arms around his neck and hugs him tight.\u00a0 Miracan wraps one arm around her and lightly pats her back, \u201cWe will see each other again little one.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Blaze lets go and nods, \u201cI know we will. We are bound.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Miracan nods one last time before going out the door and jogging to the tree line, disappearing into the brush.<\/p>\n<p>Blaze listens to the door close not turning around, with tears in her eyes she whispers, \u201cDamn you Drow. You made me cry.\u201d She picks up the things off the bar and heads to her room.\u00a0 She curls up in the chair in her room. Pulling the carved wyvern from her bag she absently runs a finger over it, blinking back tears.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Role Played by Miracan and Blaze Narrative form by \u2026 Blaze ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Who is who Miracan &#8211; Drow Gloom Stalker Ranger, doesn&#8217;t speak common, has Blaze translate for him.
