Quoted By:

"I have no feeling that Kael’thas has malice or ill meanings in his mind or in his plans, but I barely know him.” Prince Alric said to you and Taretha. “As much as a company of troops or Elven from Quel’thalas that could help us get through the campaign, I can’t buy a pig in a poke.”

The Prince seemed conflicted though, a lot hangs on what will happen in Durnholde. You knew that.

“I will write a response to him, an apology for not accepting his help and a thanks for the warning.” Prince Alric continued to speak. “I have a feeling that we are going to be living through some interesting times.”

He slapped the wood of his desk and stood up.

“Right then… I will go bother Malevus and see what she is up to and then…” The Prince said and snapped his fingers a couple times as if thinking about something. “Then I will go see what the Stonemasons are up to. Right then, that’s the plan!”

He marched past you determined to leave the study.

“Don’t forget your cane.” Taretha said and leaned over her desk to pass the simple wooden thing to him.

“Oh right, appearances…” The Prince replied with a smile as he took the cane. “What would I do without you Tari?”

“I really don’t know.” She replied back as the Prince stepped out of the study and closed the door behind him.

You gave a curious look towards Taretha who seemed amused by what had happened.

“Is he avoiding work?” You had to ask her.

“Sometimes he does that.” Taretha replied and shrugged. “Now he’s been doing that since the plan to join the campaign was made.”

“Is he stressed? Like before?” You had to ask her back.

Taretha nodded a few times.

“I hope he can get his mind off the work, a lot hangs on his shoulders or so he thinks.” Taretha said to you. “Alric can be… a lot. You have realised that, but he means only good.”

“You are right Miss Foxton.” You replied with a polite nod.

“It is Taretha or just Tari like everyone else calls me.” She said back to you and smiled before taking a deep breath. “Though I do think I should take a break, can you lend a hand Eligius?”

Taretha offered her hand to you which you took and helped her up.

“The child is being a feisty one today.” Taretha said to you. “Saps all my strength.”

“Then you should rest Miss… I mean Taretha.” You said back to her.

“See you are learning.” Was her reply as she let go of your hand. “That will do, I don’t need more help and I should keep you away from your duties.”

You gave her another polite nod. And then you left to continue your usual work.

He withdrew his dagger off your throat and stood up offering his hand for you. Taking it, he pulled you up and started to brush some of the dirt off you.

“It was a nice try, but remember not everyone is fooled by tricks like that.” Alric said to you.

“Understood.” You replied, not knowing what else to say.

“Good, then we shall begin again.” He replied and allowed you to pick up your shield as he took yet another wooden sword. “When you are ready.”

He took another ready stance that telegraphed his intent to fight as hard as he could, but this time you would be ready.

…

You weren’t ready.

Throwing water on the hot rocks, the sudden stream of steam and hot air caressed your body.

“I can talk with Alric.” Tari said to you as she grimaced as the hot wave of air hit her body.

“There is no need, the bruises are part of the sparring.” You replied to her.

Sau’na really was the best and after a day full of action, it really was the best thing for you.

The sparring of the previous days had left you really sore and your arms and body were full of small bruises from where Alric had struck you hard with his sword.

“Still… he does his things too seriously.” Tari tried to argue back.

“I said I am fine, Tari you need to believe me.” You replied to her before throwing more water on the rocks.

Tari sat on the lower step, she really didn’t handle the heat of the sau’na that well and it probably wouldn’t be good for her pregnancy to be on the top rung. Her baby bump had grown considerably in the past few weeks and soon it would be the only thing she would have strength for.

“Alright, alright.” Tari replied to you.

Sau’na really really really was the best. You have been dragging Tari to join you for the past few months and you think you have managed to convert her into a sau’na enthusiastic like you.

“Really though, Alric can be… he can be something…” Tari said to you as you threw more water on the hot rocks.

“He can be what?” You asked.

“Special.” Tari answered and smiled.

>Special in what way?
>Did Tari have deep feelings for Alric?
>Is Tari okay with Alric not recognizing her child as his own?
>Does Tari regret anything when it comes to Alric?
>Other, write in

“You seem distant.” Tari said to you suddenly.

“I am just thinking about the newcomers, the Stonemasons are something new here.” You replied and sipped the tea. “Distant is a word I wouldn’t use, but distracted? Occupied?”

Tari gave you a look and walked to you before placing a hand on your shoulder.

“Alric, you can’t be just thinking about work the moment you get back from Tarren Mill.” Tari said to you. “Last time you did so, you worked yourself close to death… well…”

“I had the incident, I know.” You replied back to her and turned to face her.

“Let the Stonemasons come and go, they will find their place sooner than later.” Tari told you and continued. “Because I don’t want to tend you again, once was too much.”

Closing your eyes you smiled for a moment before turning towards her.

“Don’t worry about me, it’s just…” You started to say.

“You have a lot to do.” Tari replied. “Oh I know.”

“Then you understand.” You said back to her and sipped the tea before snapping a light to a candle. The way you had learned to use magic had become more and more natural to you. With the evening arriving, your bedroom had grown darker and darker, so a light was exactly what you wanted.

“I…” Tari started to say.

“I what?” You asked back.

“I just… I just don’t want someone whom I consider the father of my child to work themselves to death.” Tari said to you.

You stopped mid sip and looked at her. Tari stared right into your eyes, penetrating into the Fel green of them. She was serious about what she had just said.

>Since I have been away, you have been thinking about this haven’t you?
>Blackmoore is the father of your child, not me. So please don’t consider me as the child's father.
>You don’t know how to reply. You really don’t.
>The child might not be yours, but you will be like a father to it.
>You will gladly take care of the child, but you can’t take the child under your name. This is what we agreed to, you can't have a bastard.
>Other, write in.

“Did I really smell that bad?” You asked her, a bit unsure if she was just joking.

“Alric, you did.” She said back to you and cupped your chin with her hand. “At least you have changed your braies every day, I couldn’t imagine the smell if you hadn’t.”

“Thanks Tari…” You said back to her and rolled your eyes as ‘loudly’ as you could while she ran her hands through your hair and pulled them around to the sides and back. She definitely was having her own type of fun with you right now. Having pulled your hair enough and having had her fun with you, Tari pulled her hands back and put them on her hips. With her being pregnant, she had started to wear a long dress instead of her usual shirt and skirt. The blue dress she was wearing was quite pretty.

“We need to clean you up properly, your stubble is too long and messy, your hair could use tidying up and as much as it hurts me, your moustache is still patchy from the wax.” Tari told you.

“Do we have to?” You asked back.

“Now that you are sitting on the chair and you have the time, well it wouldn’t hurt you at all.” Tari told you back. “And besides, you would be the most handsome Prince in the whole Alterac.”

“Well alright, I guess we could then.” You said and shrugged your shoulders.

Tari took out a comb and dipped it in the bucket before combing your hair straight. She was right that you needed a bit of tidying when she was finished. Your long smooth and strong black hair already reached your shoulder blades, you never have had as long hair before, but to be honest you did kinda like having long hair. It made you stand out a bit in a positive way.

“So how do you want your hair and stubble to be tidied, or do you give me free reign to style your hair?” Tari asked you as she took out the scissors and the blade. “And don’t worry, I wouldn’t shorten your hair that much, I like it more when it is long.”

Your stubble:
>Shave it all off, the moustache needs to be shaved in any case.
>Leave a short tidy stubble on your cheeks and chin.
>Have a stubble on your chin and grow it into a tidy beard.
>Other, write in.

Your hair:
>Give Tari free reign, you are fairly sure that she won’t cut your hair into a disaster. She seems to know what she is doing.
>Just tidy it a bit, clean up loose ends and errant hairs.
>Have her shorten your hair back to shoulder length, your hair has started to be a bit too long now.
>Just tell her to cut your hair short, above your ears. You feel like change is needed.
>Other, write in.

QM: The previous rolls were finding your own mana if you even had it yet, drawing it out and then using only it. This decision meanwhile is purely for how you look.

“Well you know, about taxation, history, warfare, all the fun subjects.” You said and laughed. You didn’t want to talk about learning about magic yet.

“Ughh, so dull.” Tari said back with a laugh. “But I understand, you have to learn all that stuff.”

Yeah…” You said and sighed. “But if you are going to come to Dawnholme with me, you should learn how to take care of this armour. So help me to take it off.”

“Alright, just show me.” Tari said back and smiled.

You explained the purpose and reason for every piece of Aurvan'kal you took off with Tari helping you. It was quite nice to explain all this to her and she seemed to understand the order all of this was put on and taken off and what they did to protect you.

Along with this you did talk about today. Tari had shown the contracts and told the news to her parents. They at first didn’t really understand the situation, but she had told them about you and how their lives wouldn’t change that much in Dawnholme. They would continue to be servants and really just their liege would change and be different than before. You agreed with it, Tannis Foxton had served Blackmoore for years, while you probably wouldn’t employ him directly he wouldn’t have difficulties in finding a place to work in.

Though they couldn’t join you immediately as they would need to pack their belongings first. You told Tari that your soldiers would leave Durnholde in a couple of weeks and her parents could join them and travel with them to Dawnholme. That sounded like a good compromise.

Tari helped you to pull off the arming jacket and you took off the arming trousers. It felt refreshing to be completely out of your armour as you straightened your shirt and braies.

You sighed deeply and looked at Tari. It had been a long day, a bit too long, and you were tired. Then everything that had happened was put on top of it. And then you were with Tari which made your heart race and butterflies appeared in your stomach.

You were tired and spent, both mentally and physically.

“Did something happen today?” Tari asked you and seemed a bit concerned as it was painfully easy to see how spent you were. “Alric, you can talk to me.”

>Tari should know about your feelings towards her, you have a crush on her which makes you feel funny and good inside you.
>Tell Tari that the assassin is alive and that you met him. Tell her about the circumstances in which it happened.
>There are spies and agents serving people far away from here. Imply that Annabel is one of them and how she has benefitted from the rumours and Tari becoming your ‘mistress’
>You have learned that your sister is alive and is the spymaster of the criminal organisation your brother is leading.
>You are just very very very tired and require a good night of sleep. Deflect away.
>Other, write in.

QM: Choose as many as you like.

Blackmoore stood up as he said this to you. He had a wide drunken smirk on his face and he was pretty drunk, but seemed still to be in relatively good shape. Being a high-functioning alcoholic seemed to work in his favour. You too had managed to garner a good buzz thanks to the wine and while you detested that man, drinking with him could get you his trust. You just wondered how Taretha would fit into all this? Was Blackmoore suspecting something? What if you didn’t take Taretha with you, would he suspect that something is wrong then? It did seem to be an innocent idea from him, but you couldn’t be completely sure about it.

>Accept his offer and go invite Taretha to join the two of you. This could be the way to win his trust.
>Take his offer, but let Taretha continue her work as a servant. You and Blackmoore can drink in private, just the two of you.
>Decline, you are going to go and dance now. You can drink with him some other evening.
>Other, write in.

“Alright, we can go to the city together.” You said to Calia. “But I have to warn you, the Alteracis in Southshore, they were the poorest people in the city. Some of them were just a step away from banditry. But if you say you know the city, then I trust you.”

“Thank you for the concern Alric, but we should be fine.” Calia said to you and smiled.

“But we still should wear plain looking clothes, like the ones you had when we met in the garden. And cloaks, we shouldn’t forget them.” You said to her. “Just in case and what would people say if they recognized you walking in the city with me?”

“That is a good point.” Calia said to you. “I will come get you tomorrow morning.”

Calia gave you a kiss as she left your embrace and walked to the door where she turned around and looked at you.

“Good night Alric.”

“Good night Calia, sweet dreams.”

The taste of her kiss lingered on your lips as you watched her leave your room. When the door closed and you went to lock it, you knew that tomorrow would be a long day. It was time to sleep.

…

The next morning you quickly ate your breakfast and as you were preparing for the day in the city, a servant brought a small roll of paper with two addresses. First was the Alteracis or at least where their nominal leader was living and the second was the address of your sister's magic teacher. King Terenas had said that he would help you and you had received said help quite fast.

You first thought about putting on your normal leather jacket, but instead decided to wear your arming jacket and partially wear your armour. Breastplate with faulds and your bascinet without the visor made you look like a normal mercenary or a soldier without you having to wear any more armour, especially when you threw your cloak on and pulled the hood over your head.

Then you just waited till Calia would come to pick you up.

…

Some time later there was a knock on the door and you went to open it to see if Calia had arrived.

“Good morning Alric.” Taretha said to you. “Why are you wearing armour? Not even all of it?”

“Good morning Taretha and not for that important reason really.” You said to her. “How are you? How is Blackmoore?”

“I am fine, thanks for asking.” Taretha said. “And he is nursing a really bad hangover.”

Some things hadn’t changed.

“He wants to leave the Capital City as fast as possible and the ship leaves this afternoon. I came to ask you as I or Blackmoore didn’t see you after the tribunal that are you joining us?” Taretha asked you.

“I am not, I will stay here for a few days before I leave. I need to meet and talk with people.” You explained to her. “Sorry.”

“Don’t be. I will be fine and so will Blackmoore when he realises that nothing has changed for him.” Taretha said to you. “But good luck Alric, I wish whatever meetings you have go well.”

“Thanks Taretha.” You said to her as she was leaving.

“Alric, just call me Tari.” She said with a smile and left.

It was later in the evening and you were in your cabin. Malevus had joined you there and was cleaning your armour as you kept asking her questions about fighting and how to deal with the situations she could be facing and what she would do in them.

During this there were several knocks on the door and as Malevus was closer to the door, she stood up and went to open it.

“My Prince, it is Lady Taretha.” Malevus said to you.

“Let her in.” You said and stood up from the chair you were sitting on.

Taretha Foxton entered your small cabin and you noticed that she was carrying a small basket full of different breads, cheeses and small cakes. She also had a jug of wine with her. You knew instantly why she was here. Again she had been sent to you by Lord Blackmoore. With Malevus having opened the door, you weren’t sure if she had been followed or seen entering your cabin.

“Good evening Lady Taretha.” You said to her and gave her a polite nod.

“Good evening Prince Alric.” Taretha said and seemed to be slightly confused because of the presence of Malevus. “Good evening Lady Malevus. Lord Blackmoore sent me with this offering.”

“Thank you Taretha, you may put the basket on the table.” You said back to her.

It seemed that she was waiting for you to do something with Malevus. Last time you met her and Malevus had been in the room, you had sent Malevus outside where she couldn’t hear what you would be talking about. Back then Malevus had just become your squire and you weren’t sure if you could trust her, but now some time had already passed and Malevus seemed to be quite reliable and trustworthy. Could Malevus stay now and potentially learn the secrets between you and Taretha or would it be a potential source of problems if the word spreads through her?

>Ask Malevus to leave and keep watch on the cabin door. You want to be alone and private with Taretha.
>Tell Malevus to stay, you trust her enough and she probably has connected the dots between you, Taretha and Thrall. After all she did throw the dagger away into the river.
>Malevus can stay and she should learn the history between you and Taretha to clear any potential misunderstandings and to learn what kind of a man Lord Blackmoore is.
>Other, write in.
