Faolan's cheeks flushed slightly at her question of him having children, "No, after my father's death I had to look after my brothers and mother. So I haven't started a family of my own, nor have I really put much thought into it." He answered honestly, his tone not sad at all as he mentioned...

"Okay, I won't throw rocks..." Alfie pouted, well, fake-pouted, but he was so good at lying by now that it was impossible to tell the difference. And to top it off, she had said 'don't throw rocks', not 'don't sling rocks', so technically, in his twisted mind, he had free rein to use his sling...

At the sight of that young boy, Faolan couldn't help but smile, the boy reminded him of his brother when he had been young, the blond curls, plump face. The only thing different were his eyes, blue, while as his brother had hazel eyes, just like Faolan. He glanced to Piper and frowned slightly...

((No problem.)) Callie dragged the toe of her scuffed leather shoe in the soil, eyes averted from Alexis', but Alfie stared Alexis down with his skinny arms crossed defiantly. "Alfie, Callie, apologize to her." Farris said sternly, hoisting the hog a little higher on his shoulders so that he...

Farris returned her smile with a lop lidded one of his own, "I'm just fine, well, as fine as you can be when you're butchering hogs. It might have been the scent of all the blood and stuff that spooked your girl there." He replied jovially, but looked up sharply to the roof top a few houses down...

"You alright there, Miss O'Shea?" Farris Woodman, the butcher's son, asked Alexis from a few yards away where he was walking out from an alley between two houses, coming from the general direction that the mare had spooked away from. He was muscular, and quite tall for being only 14, with a...

"Yes, that's right," Faolan replied to Fern softly as he sat at their insistence, gratefully accepting the porridge Piper handed him, it's heat seeping through the bowl into his sore hands. Through his stomach was burning with hunger and wanted to shovel the porridge down as fast as he could, he...

"Good morning, Fern." Faolan said with a slightly uncomfortable smile, unsure of what to do, especially after her grandmother's loud reply that was obviously supposed to be kept quiet. He looked to Alexis at her words, "See you then." Faolan replied as she walked away, looking back to Piper and...

Faolan was about to protest Alexis's insistence that he need not reimburse her. But then the elderly woman by the hearth who he, in his exhaust state, had not noticed when first entering the home, spoke. After Alexis responded, he knew it was his turn, but what could he say? My name is Faolan...

A few people watched them as they made their way through town, it was obvious that Faolan was not from around there, with his armor, he stuck out like a sore thumb. As they reached Pipers home, he dismounted, a little faster than intended as his right arm gave out, a thickly of blood running...

Faolan could feel the tension in the air that his words had caused, and he was regretting telling them, it was way too much way too fast. I should have kept my mouth shut. Hmm, like that has ever been possible, you lose lipped fool. He thought, he was not known for his secret keeping and tact...

"Ah, Hannes, where have you been?" A tall, ashen brown haired man called in a mellow tone as he looked up from the log he and another man were sawing in half. His name was Walter, and though his sharp features, weather worn skin and tousled, graying hair gave him the look of a man at least well...

"Gaoithe has stood strong for millennia, for some of the most powerful sorcerers rezide there, the walls are fifty feet in height and it's army is one of the largest, but if it were to fall..." Faolan explained, looking away for a moment to put his emotions in check as thoughts of his mother and...

"For your own protection," Faolan replied to Alexis solumly, glancing to Piper before looking back to Alexis and continuing, "In the highlands, there is constant war, not once in my live time has there been peace. The kingdom of Laochra, along with many others, wish to invade the lowlands. While...

Faolan laughed, "Oh, I am so sorry. A Cloaking charm makes you invisible, I'll show you." With his other hand, the injured arm, he reached up and tapped the stone once on its right side, which started it spinning slowly. Within seconds, it had picked up speed, and a low, vibrating mum emanated...

Faolan looked to Alexis at her question, smiling as he realized that he had an excellent opportunity to prove that magic was real. "It's a Cloaking charm," He explained, thinking that he was making perfect sense, being that to him, cloaking was invisibility, "But not a very good one, because you...

Faolan had, with a great deal of effort, not yelled from the spasms of pain in his muscles when he had pulled himself into the mare's saddle. He looked over to Piper at her question, and answered in a subdued tone, "Yes, thank you." Faolan looked off into the forest to their right. It had a...

Faolan nodded appreciatively, he could easily understand her liking of the mare, it was a fine animal. "I may be in need of a horse if- when I head back to my home." He stated, not realizing that the small amount on gold ingots in an inner pocket of his tonic, while in the highlands would only...

Faolan nodded slowly, watching Hannes walk away with slight frown. He looked back to Piper and Alexis, and it was obvious that he was uncomfortable - he was the outsider that was thought of as crazy. Faolan walked hesitantly, and painfully, towards Alexis and her mare. "I used to have a mare...

Faolan watched Alexis for a moment, trying to decide if he should argue the truth with her. But then Piper spoke, and he looked to her, taken slightly aback to see her expression. "Thank you, Piper." Faolan replied in a subdued tone, then added, "And I want to apologize to you all for this...
