“No, it's alright, I just wanted to make sure you won't get 'distracted' during work. I don't expect you to be as open, or as horny, as I am. Though if you ever want to try pleasuring yourself in front of another girl, I'll be happy to help... And sure, anything you want...” Celine added, then started blushing when Alyndra hesitantly touched her fingers. “Oh... this is... somehow a lot more embarrassing than it should be...” she admitted as she hesitantly returned the gesture and tried to slowly intertwine her fingers with the redhead's. “Um... would it be alright if I kiss you? On the lips?” The elf blurted out before she could stop herself.
Alyndra smiled, as the two intertwined their fingers, liking the feeling of warmth and Celine's delicate hands in her's. She had to giggle at the situation that they were somehow more shy at handholding, than Celine pleasuring herself in front of Alyndra. The redhead blushed, but smiled wistfully, as Celine asked her for a kiss, 'Nobody ever kissed me before... but I think it would be alright, if it's you, Celine.' She nodded and slowly leaned closer to the raven-haired elf.
“Oh, so you're giving me your first kiss? I'm glad...” Celine admitted, then she leaned closer to the redhead and her lips met Alyndra's. After a few moments the elf pulled away, ending the brief kiss, her face red with embarrassment. “Thank you, Aly... Let me give you a bit of advice...” She began, not letting go of Alyndra's hand. “When you are alone with a person who obviously finds you attractive, and you get asked for a kiss on the lips... especially if the person is me... it might be a good idea to ask for clarification about which lips the person means... or else next time I might just ask to kiss your other lips...” A she said that Celine gave a meaningful look towards the redhead's crotch. “Unless, of course, that's what you actually want at the time...” She added as her gaze went back to her friend's face, her own still red.
Alyndra's lips melted against Celine's, savouring her first kiss. She withdrew, with a heavy blush but also a cheeky smile on her lips. She giggled at the elf's adivce, 'Oh, uh, that possibility never even occured to me.' She slowly released her fingers from Celine's, 'I think we better leave that for another time, take it slow. Doing everything at once would spoil it, no?' She slowly put her socks on, starting to get dressed again.
Celine giggled as well. “I figured as much, that's why I'm giving you advice – I wouldn't want someone to trick you like that... unless it's me doing it...” She added with a naughty smile before getting a bit more serious. “Yes, we should get dressed and get to work.” The elf nodded as she collected her discarded clothes and started putting them on: First her bra and panties, then her tight pants, and then her blouse. She was faster than Alyndra and so spent a few moments watching as her friend finished getting dressed. “Oh, I almost forgot,” Celine realized once both of them were dressed. “I should get my spells ready, just in case. Give me just a moment...” She already had two spells prepared: The shadow rope spell and an arcane bolts spell that would fire numerous weak bolts of magic energy at one or more opponents. But she had used up her Arousing Touch spell earlier to help her seduce Natalie, and she wanted to have it ready, in case she needed it later. Seh sat back down on the bed and focused on preparing the spell. Once she was done she looked at her friend. “Sorry for the wait, I'm ready now. Shall we go speak with Zilfar and find out what she can tell us about the two bounties?”
Alyndra dressed more slowly, as she had a bit more stuff to put on, pulling on her panties, bra and blouse. Then her pants, doublet and boots. She smiled as Celine told her she had to prepare spells, 'Sure, no problem. I have some spells ready, a ray of frost, entangling vines, a spell to detect magic and one to negate magic.' The redhead waited for Celine to finish her preparations and then stood up. 'Okay, let's see what the dark elf can tell us about them,' Alyndra nodded and started to walk to the door.
“Yes, let's.” As they left the small room Celine made sure to lock the door and put the key safely away in a hidden pocket. Than the pair made their way down to the first floor and to the dark elf's desk. “Hey, Zilfie! How's it going?” She greeted the dark elf when the pair reached her. “We were wondering, what can you tell us about two of the bounties: Verena the witch, posted by High Priestess Carina, and the High Priestess Carina one that was posted by priestess Juanita. We are considering taking one, or maybe both, but first we need to know a bit more about what we are getting ourselves into, and if we need to get more help.” The elf asked and waited to hear what, if anything, Zilfar could tell them. "And of course, we would like to know where we can find Juanita, Carina and Verena, if you can tell us." She added a moment later.
Catherine spend some time searching the house, and interestingly, she found nothing of value - it was like the entire house was cannibalised. Just as she was about to give up, she heard a noise. She looked out of the window and noticed her target walking briskly to the house. Camila looked tired, as she approached the house, her steps decisive, carrying a bag in her hand.
Catherine was getting bothered at all the hiccups in this adventure, seeing something go in her favour at least a bit, was good for her. But...no need to interrupt the girl before she gives him the medicine...the minute she treats him however...Catherine made a quick exit to hide in a nearby room, creaking open the doors so she could observe on the situation. She wasn’t about to stop her from saving his father, but the moment she was about to relax and had her guard down...she was already exhausted and at her emotional limits, probably making her a less focused fighter than she’d normally be. Catherine could probably handle her with a well placed back stab to get the drop. She’d have to pick her moment carefully.
As the goblin looked intently at the water, the time passed, and nothing happened. He looked around, but so no equipment the woman could have left. As he looked back, he came face to face with her - it was so sudden that he froze for a moment. He noticed that the blond was naked, as he looked down, he could easily see her shapely round breasts. She suddenly jumped, making a backflip, and hitting Gith's chin with her... fin. As he fell on his back, the woman diapered in the lake, giggling. As he waited for some time, but the woman didn't resurface.
"Eh? Mermaid?" Gih wondered, thinking those were only seen at the sea, rather than at a lake. But, since the woman didn't bother to show up again, the little goblin simply finishes cleaning up. Before heading back to town. He decides to hit one of the gambling dens to make some cash he lost on the botched job.
Rogriss, the half orc, also stands at the counter. He turns to the elf. "Hello, there. I'm Rogriss." He holds out a hand. "I'm also after the witch. Just came back from scouting her little hut, in fact."
Celine raised an eyebrow when a half-orc approached her, claiming to have “scouted” the witch's hut – whatever that meant. With a bit of hesitation she shook the guy's hand. “Hello, Mr. Rogriss. You may call me Raven, and this is Alyndra.” She greeted him politely and introduced her redheaded companion. “If I may ask, what do you mean when you say that you scouted her hut? Did you just see the place? Or did you see the witch herself? If it was the latter, did you actually speak to her to make sure it's her and not some other witch with a similar appearance?”
He nods. @unisol_gr44 He takes Alyndra's hand and kisses it. "Charmed to meet two such immensely beautiful women". Rogriss nods. "I saw the place and spoke to her. I don't belive she suspected me, thinking that I was just an obsessed admirer trying to get a look at her. As to whether I'm sure it's her? Yes. Unless she cloned herself, it's definitely her. You've seen her picture on the bounty board. She isn't exactly easy to mistake for someone else. I propose that we pool our resources and go after the witch, and then the priestess, in succession."
Alyndra blushed profusely, as the handsome half-orc kissed her hand, her face flushing, 'P-pleasure to meet you, R-Rogriss.'
Rogriss gives her a friendly smile, with just a hint of lasciviousness. "Not nearly as much of a pleasure as it is for me to meet you. So, do you think that we can team up, as it were?"
'Oh, you are too kind,' Alyndra blushed, obvioust that the inexperienced redhead was very susceptible to the half-orc's suave ways, 'Oh, I'm sure we could use your help. What do you think, Raven?' She looked to her elven friend for guidance.
Celine tried not get annoyed by how friendly the half-orc was towards her redheaded. “I bet you say that to all the girls you meet... you probably said something similar to the witch too...” The elf cleared her throat and changed topic. “As for working together... well, let me think. You said that you talked to her and that she likely thinks that you are 'just an obsessed admirer'. Sounds to me like you tried charming her and it didn't work. I don't know exactly what happened – whether she ignored you, turned you down, or just slammed the door in your face – but she is likely to remember you. I mean, there can't be that many half-orcs that visit her and try to charm her, plus it doesn't seem like a very long time since you met her.” Celine paused to catch her breath before continuing. “The witch may not suspect you now, but if she sees you in the company of two unknown women, she might get suspicious about you – and about us, by extension. Therefor, as far as the witch is concerned, it might be best if the two of us try to talk to her on our own, with you waiting somewhere nearby, out of sight. This way, if things go wrong and we are forced to resort to violence, it won't take long to get you, or for you to come and help us.” She made another pause. “As for helping us with the priestess... well, that depends on how things go with the witch. In any case, I think we should first hear what Zilfie can tell us about the two bounties and the people that issued them before we make further plans.” The elf then looked at her companion. “What do you think, Aly? Does this sound good to you?”
'Yeah, she'll probably remember Rogriss. He's rather... distinctive,' Alyndra smiled shyly at the half-orc and nodded to Celine, 'That does sound good to me, yes.'
"If that's how you think it should be done, then so be it. I only worry that if you're in trouble, I might be too far away to help in time. Also, have we considered just telling her the truth? We can tell her that we'll deliver her, and then rescue her and help her get revenge on the priestess once the bounty is complete. After all, the bounty just stipulates that we deliver her. It doesn't stipulate that we have to let her get hurt after delivery." Flattered, Rogriss smiles back at her. "Really, though, you outnumber me, so I'll go along with whatever you two lovely ladies decide."
