OCC: Jeria you godmodded just to let you know you can't have another character drop their sword without asking if that person if they can do that. Just to let you know.
Seana saw a small figure come behind the girl and was astonished that the girl could move so fast and she deflected the girls attack with a quick spell before she attempted to attack her. she sheathed her sword and looked at the girl.
"I will go if you wish me to. I wanted to take revenge for what she did to nerasa thank you very much. She insulted my friend and she must pay. If any luck she must do what she has to and when there comes a time, you, even, won't be able to save her the next time. But I will leave." said seana who walked away quietly and headed straight for where king orrin was and to find nerasa.

OOC: okay, sorry. Didn't realize I couldn't do that. I'll try to fix it.
Marola gazed at the girl as the elf passed her by. The girl looked back into her eyes. There was something terrible about them, something that almost made her quail with fear. After a few minutes, the girl said, "I suggest you leave as soon as possible. If you stay much longer, Seana will kill you. Leave, and hope you never meet her again." She turned to go.
"Nerasa insulted my father," muttered Marola, "If she just insulted me, I would have lived with it. But to insult the dead, who have no way to honor their name..."
The girl stopped and turned back to her. "And to insult her entire race? To be in danger of having every elf you ever meet attempt to kill you, that is a danger you would have done best to avoid. It cannot be stopped now. If Seana ever sees you again, she will kill you, and your dragon, and I will not be around to help you next time. I doubt there would be anyone else who would help you either."
"Why did you help me?" asked Marola. The girl did not answer, but turned and disappeared down the streets.

Seana entered where king orrin was and looked at Nerasa who was seated near the door with her sword out waiting for anyone to attack the king.
"I am glad your here seana. I was getting worried. King orrin this is Seana a friend of mine and she is an assassin. She can help you if you ever needed it but you must pay for her price." said Nerasa.

With his cloak sweeping behind him, Einar stood in the shadows of the rooftop of a building adjacent to King Orrin's castle. He noticed the commotion below, where Nerasa had entered. He frowned when he saw that, knowing that she probably alerted them of his presence. This is going to be more difficult than it should be. he complained, hoping to get it done with already. "Now they're going to increase the soldiers around the castle...I had hoped to lessen the blood bath to just one man. How annoying."
"I do believe you are the one who is annoying." A voice called out from behind Einar. Einar whirled around, surprised that he had not felt the presence. He turned around and was face to face with an elf.
Faolan stood before Einar with his weapon at the ready, knowing that this man was not ordinary. If he had not been strolling the courtyards and had told Jade to scout for anyone suspicious around the castle, he was sure he would not have notice the black cloaked man.
Einar fumed. "Am I now? I could say the same for you." Einar eyed the elf's sword for a moment. It was a unique sword and Einar actually admired it. He smirked. "Do you dare to challenge me, elf?" Einar slowly pulled out his short swords.
"If you are a threat, then, aye." The elf stood still and Einar was eager to meet his blade with his own.
"This should be fun. I haven't fought an elf in awhile."
"I take no pleasure in fighting, but that does not mean I will not do what is necessary."
"That suits me fine!" Einar growled and lunged at Faolan.
The elf easily parried the blow and retaliated with his own. The battle between the begun as they blocked, lunged, and spun to attack and avoid each other.

The fighting women ended their squirmish shortly after it began. The wild blur of a girl stopped to talk to the red head. 'Well Doc. I think that's the end of that. Go back to the stream. I think I will just watch the city. Something is amiss.'
'Be careful Aethelwyne. Do not get yourself into trouble.'
'Come on Doc, you know me. Would I get into trouble?'
She rolled forward off of the roof landing on the ground below. She walked into the streets of the city. She heard the clang of swords from near the palace. 'Who ever said this city was dead has never been out at night.' She made her way to the roof tops again heading toward the noise of battle. As she approached the palace she saw the man from the square fighting with an elven male. 'I wonder where all his women disappeared to? However will he protect himself without them.' She chided. Settling in on a nearby roof she watched as the men battled furiously. The assassin from the square was skilled with a blade. His opponent, the elf, was equally skilled. The fight took the men out of her eyesight. She quietly rolled to the edge of the roof and using her arms lowered herself effortlessly and quietly to the street below. She moved around the corner of the building once again eyeing the fighting men. They were too engrossed in thier battle to notice her. She leaned back against the building with her arms folded watching as the men continued to fight. Silently she assessed their skills and took note of their weakness. Studying people had been a necessary skill to develop in her line of work. You never knew when your path would lead you to one you had met previously or whether that path would lead to friend or foe. So she watched and committed to memory. She did not hide nor announce herself. She just continued to watch half in amusement. 'For an assassin he sure isn't subtle.' Then she thought 'Arrogant pig.' as she remembered the scene in the alleyway earlier. Doc was right. It had been a little bit funny!

"King orrin I believe that you should put up more guards around your castle or around this room for your own protection only. Though you have two elves but that won't be enough and I just thought you should have more protection. Even though I am an assassin that doesn't mean anything if you are not truely protected. I wonder, do you want me to work a job in assassinry for you because I am here now and it wouldn't be polite if I didn't offer my skills." said seana lowering her hood and the scar that she got when she was younger and in a fight with another elf showed on her right side of her face.
It was long and reached from the tip of her eyebrow curving with her jaw line curved to her chin. The scar was mostly on the cheek.
"Seana I don't think its time to be asking if he needs you to go kill someone. That is so strange. But do what you must." said nerasa looking at her friend who had UV white hair.

As she watched the men battle she sensed the guards coming to the commotion alerted by someone within the castle. She waved her hand in front of her face and changed to a dark long haired girl with green eyes. Her clothes appeared as an emerald green gown. Pulling the cloak around her shoulders she approached the fighting men. "What are you doing?" she yelled to get the assassins attention. "You were supposed to meet me near the square not the courtyard!" She reached out to him not sure if he would listen. 'Be aware, the guards come. Someone has alerted Orrin to your threat. Come with me and I will provide you cover to try another day!" With that she crossed her arms in front of her and impatiently tapped her foot on the ground feigning impatience. The silver bracelet barely visible from under the sleeve of the gown. "Are you going to make me wait all night? Father was right. He said you were nothing but an immature oaf and look at you fighting when your supposed to be taking me to dinner."

OCC: Did everyone forget about the dude who was trying to commit suicide? lol
******************************************************
Solembum strolled down the alleyway, stopping suddenly at the sound of fighting. Purring filled the alley as he nonchalantly walked toward the woman who was yelling at one of the men. He looked up at her, laughing inside. A covener? He rubbed against her leg trying to get her attention. He looked up into her deep violet eyes. 'Ditch the coven. It'll bring happiness into your life. ' Solembum jumped onto the rooftop of a nearby house and continued strolling. Humans...

She smiled slightly at the werecat so the men would not notice. 'Merry meet.' she sent to the cat then turned her attention back to the assassin.

Both nerasa and seana stayed where they were not really talking but watching the king do things that they never thought a king would do. They both did glance at each other briefly but not long enough to make it look suspicious.

Struggling against Faolan's blade, Einar grunted at the woman who had just appeared before them. Who the heck is she?! She's getting in the way! Einar muttered to himself.
Faolan was too preoccupied with Einar's twin blades to care about the woman who seemed to know his opponent, however, he could sense that the opponent knew not the woman.
Einar's eyes blazed as he felt a presence try to contact him. He scoffed, acknowledging that the woman was trying to contact him. He briefly allowed her in, for he was still engulfed in a battle.
Einar heard the woman say that King Orrin had already been alerted about his assassination attempt. Puzzled by this; only Marola and Stigandr knew about it, he knew that there might be a traitor among the Empire.
Recognizing the woman in the alley's voice as the woman before him, Einar addressed her with his mind. I know not who you are, but mind your own business! You know not what my plans are! He snarled at her as he pushed Faolan back.
Faolan's eyes trailed over his opponent. "You are not an ordinary human." He replied with ease, not seeming tired at all.
Einar smiled knowingly. "Aye. I live in two worlds." was all he said as he twirled his swords, catching Faolan off guard. Faolan backed away, assessing the situation, while trying to block Einar's oncoming onslaught. From above, Faolan heard Jade screech, but commanded her not to interfere. He is strong.
Einar twisted his wrists, causing his blades to interlock with Faolan's sword. Then he kicked the blades upwards as he somersaulted backwards and sheathed his blades as he did so. Smiling, Einar emerged at the edge of the roof. His heel hanging off.
"Don't!" Faolan cried out, fearing that this mysterious man would commit suicide. "There should be no needless deaths!"
Einar continued to smile. "I will not die until my destiny is complete." Einar's left foot moved backwards as he suddenly dropped off the roof.
"NO!" Faolan cried out again, knowing that no human could survive the fall. He raced over to the edge to see Einar flip in the air and laid nimbly onto the ground. Looking up at Faolan, Einar smiled and winked at the elf and ran into a shocked crowd.
Faolan's eyes narrowed as he watched Einar escape.
Turning around, Faolan eyed and addressed the woman carefully. "Be careful for your actions may appear treacherous in the eyes of your Surda King." He called down Jade and began to leave the roof to search for Einar or to return to the castle; he had not decided yet.

As she watched the man drop from the rooftop, a smile crept over her face. She sent one last message to him "Be careful darling. Wouldn't want you to break your neck! Whatever would your women do without you!"
Turning her attention to the elf, Aethelwyne waived off her disguise. "My actions are governed by no man and I owe no allegiance to any King, Empire or Varden. As for threat to the Surda King...maybe you better think back over the nights events. Do you really believe that a mysterious man just happened to be in the courtyard of the King? As for my actions...well let's just say that your skills were evenly matched from what I observed."
With that she turned and proceeded to walk back to the inn. 'Men. They are all arrogant condescending pigs whether they be human, elf or other. Present company excluded Doc!'

Einar sent Aethelwyne a sneer of disgust. Be careful fellow assassin or your neck will be meeting my blades. He severed the connection completely and barred off any other mind links. He ran off to find Marola; he was curious on how her battle turned out. He would have to attempt his assassination later; he still had time...not much...but he still had it.
"For a woman with no allegiances, you appear to be unnecessarily concerned about the warfare of the Surda King." Faolan eyed the woman carefully, revealing no emotion to her. "I warn you again; beware of what actions you portray." He made no remark towards his skills; he knew what they were and knew for a fact that he could have defeated the assassin easily; he had held back more than 70% of his energy. He knew that through fighting, a man could learn about his opponent far quickly than spending a lifetime with him. Faolan gazed off into the direction in which the man ran off to. From their fight, he knew, that the man's stamina and energy could match that of an elf, yet he showed no physical characteristics. The warrior assassin intrigued him greatly. He would report to Arya and Lady Nasuada about the man before pursuing any other actions.
Without allowing the woman to respond, Faolan jumped onto the opposite rooftops with ease and sprinted towards the castle.
