Vi’lea is a bit surprised to see the slime girl get brought back by her spell. Today must be my lucky day. Not wanting to give their target a chance to escape she reaches down and touches the cave floor. She’s about to cast the ice trail spell again, when she sees Andreas approach the slime, crystal in hand. She waits to see if the capture attempt will be successful before doing anything more.
The slime girl recoils, but she doesn't seem to know where to go. The crystal piercing her gelatinous body and with a pop and flash of green light her essence is sucked into the crystal. "Good thinking, big guy," says Pepper. "We can make it back just before sundown if we keep moving." You set off from the cave, in the general direction of the Fenton farm. Pepper strips off her leather jacket and gives it to the woman for at least a little modesty, although the woman seems beyond caring about being naked. The roll of her hips with each step invites you to look at her plentiful bottom. When she turns to glance back at you, her breasts are even more plentiful, and in the cool air of early evening, her fat nipples have grown hard. Pepper's have too, visible beneath the white undershirt she is wearing. The two women walk side by side, with such a difference in age and body type that it is easy to let your imagination run wild.
Andreas turns into his back, spitting slime from his lips. "There's... slime in my nose..." He sneezes, and manymore unmentionable things go with it. He raises his blackened and oozing hand, and winces at flexing his fingers. "I... don't know if I can go on..."
Feeling a bit bold, Riekan steps between the two women, sneaking a hand around their waists. "Have you found out her name yet, Pepper?" He asks, casually.
As she sees the final slime girl get captured Vi’lea allows herself to relax, and for the first time feels tired. I guess casting so many spells in a short period of time took its toll on me. The dark elf remains on the ground and relaxes for a few minutes before looking at her companions, especially at Tila and her swollen belly. "I’m sure we’re all tired, but we should head back to the village. The sooner we go back the sooner someone can check Tila’s condition." She looks at Andreas. "Besides, I’m sure Winona is looking forward to… rewarding you for your bravery." She smirks at him. And I could use some more alone time with Lyssa. She adds in her mind.
The woman smiles as you slip your hand around her waist. "Lea," she says and she actually leans into you a little. Pepper does as well. You see the Fenton house through the trees. "I saw a well on the Fenton's property," murmurs Pepper. "I bet there's a tub somewhere in that house. But it might mean spending the night out in the middle of nowhere. Your call, big man."
Tila seems calm at least, looking adoringly at Silvan as she cleans the slime from her body with her tongue. Quite a distracting sight, actually. Particularly when she sits down on the floor and starts contorting her body more than seems humanly possible. Licking her own feet and legs clean of slime girl residue. You gather up your things and clean up as best you can and make your way out of the cave. The western skies are already golden with sunset. (OOC: You're probably 10-20 minutes behind Riekan and Pepper and their new friend.)
He smirks despite himself. "Well... I like to see too... my hand first... and replenish myself. As I'm sure you would." He rears up slightly. "Speaking of that, I did want to make it a point to get to know you better, Vi'lea. I have to admit though," he adds quietly, "sharing a lover wasn't my intent. No hard feelings I hope?"
"It might be a good idea, Pepper." Riekan replies, while the village is somewhat safer, their rooms don't have a tub back at the tavern. "Let's rest at the farm, we can sleep in turns to ensure our safety." He suggests, his hands traveling up and down on their waists.
"There should be someone in the village who can help with your hand, or who can make you a potion. I mean, Riekan managed to get one for Hurley, so there’s obviously at least one person that can make healing potions." The dark elf tells him as she gets up. "Well, I don’t mind getting to know you better, too, since we’ll be working together for a while. Just don’t expect that we’ll ever be more than friends. As for sharing a lover: Believe me, if it was up to me I would not be sharing Lyssa with anyone. But that’s for her to decide, not for you or me, so no hard feelings. I can only... hope." Vi’lea is quite surprised to hear a hint of sadness in her own voice. As the one in the best condition Vi’lea volunteers to carry the crystals so that the others can focus on getting to the village and on helping Tila, if necessary. Then the group heads out. When they reach the cave entrance the dark elf realizes that it has gotten later than she expected. "Looks like our little slime hunt took longer than I thought. We should hurry up if we want to make it to town before it has gotten dark."
It's a little eerie entering the silent farm house. Pepper finds a wooden tub banded with iron. You help her drag it into the farmhouse's main room. Pepper also finds two huge pots and gets a fire started in the fireplace while you bring in buckets of water from the well to fill the pots. Lea sits on a chair at the supper table, watching with a distant look in her eyes. "It will take a while for the water to boil," whispers Pepper. "I want to show you something in the granary while we're waiting..." You can see mischief in her eyes. You look to Lea, but Pepper reassures you, "She'll be fine here."
The sun is sinking beneath the horizon. You can see the Fenton farm in the distance. It's getting dark, but you have made good time. If you continue at this pace you might just make it to the tavern before dark.
Riekan follows Pepper to the granary where they fought slime girls earlier. He can't help but can't get curious and excited by the expression on the young girl's beautiful features. They arrive there and stop at the door.
When she sees the Fenton farm Vi'lea looks at her companions as an idea occurs to her. "If you’re too tired to walk you can spend the night at the farm – the place is now empty and I’m sure the farmer won’t mind. Plus who knows – maybe Riekan and Pepper have also decided to spend the night here, if they didn’t go back already. As for me – I’ll continue towards the village. I want to bring the crystals to Lyssa, tell her what happened, and consult her about Tila – just in case it’s something that requires immediate attention." The Dark elf looks at her companions, waiting for their decision.
Andreas raises his one good hand as they exit. "I already could tell. No worries with me. I admit my weakness for elven women, and that's why I don't want to stand in the way of anything. Besides, Lyssa may have been tired this morning, but she looked happy. I hope things work out, Vi'lea." He votes for continuing on for Vi'lea's same reasons.
Pepper turns to you and searches your face with her blue eyes. She rises on the balls of her feet and kisses you lightly on the lips. Pepper takes both of your hands lightly in hers and draws you into the musty darkness of the granary. "I'm not ready to give myself to you yet," she murmurs, her face flushed and expression serious, "but I warned you I was going to get you back for what you did in the cave back there." She kisses you again, a bit hotter and longer this time, her lips parting but she pulls away before your tongues make contact. Her hands trail down your plate and beneath it to your trousers. She strokes your hardness and sinks slowly to a crouch before you. "Take it out," she says, looking up and rubbing at your cock. "I want to see if it's as big as the rest of you."
Silvan and Tila also vote to continue. You make good time through the blackwood and just as the last light of sunset fades from the sky into the deeper blues of night, you reach Hommlet. The few shops are still open (a general store and a feed/livestock store) and you see patrons through the smoky windows of the Horny Goat Tavern. Gods is it good to be back in this forsaken little village.
"Thank you, I appreciate it." Vi'lea smiles briefly at Andreas as she walks. Once back in the village Vi'lea wastes no time and enters the Horny Goat Tavern, looking for their employer.
You notice two large wagons and several horses at the stables adjacent to the tavern. You reckon it is a merchant caravan and your intuition proves strong when you step into the bustling tavern. Winona's bawdy laugh cuts through the murmur of conversation. More than half the tables are filled as a group of at least fifteen, mostly men, are having supper and ales. By the olive color of their skin and their manner of dress you guess them to be Urkts, from the distant south. What they are doing here is not immediately obvious. You see Lyssa and the imposing form of Hurley sitting at a table near the hearth. They see you and Lyssa smiles and waves you over.
This place sure is full tonight. Is Vi’lea’s first thought when she sees all the new people. Then her eyes find the elf and her orc companion. The dark elf smiles in return as she makes her way to the waving woman. The sorceress makes sure to not get too close to any of the new arrivals, as some of them appear to be quite drunk and she’s not in the mood to deal with drunken people. When she reaches Lyssa she sits in a chair right next to her. "We’re back. I assume you want to hear what happened?" She asks as she takes a moment to enjoy the warmth coming from the nearby hearth.
