Edward heard Seathwr shout out, and smelt smoke. There was a loud howl of pan and a sudden loud hiss. Edward waved in Namira and walked past Seathwr into the kitchen. Kupo was seen sitting down in the bucket of water, smoke shooting out from under him. A quick embarassing explanation reveiled that while Kupo was cooking, his tail got too close to the oven, it smoked a bit and caught on fire. He ran around a bit and saw the bucket, sat down and felt much better...

As Edward was checking to see if the steks were dne and ok, they were, he heard a loud gasp coming from the main hall. "Oh, thats right, Seathwr is there..."

Saethwr saw Edward and another person enter the house. As Edward ran off to help Kupo he smiled at the newcomer only to hear her gasp.
'What?' he asked.
Then he remembered.
'Damn i forgot to put the hood up.'
He did so and hoped that his first meeting with her wouldn't scare her.

Blaze came up behind Saethwr, not noticing the person who had entered yet he said to Sae “hehehe, I bet it's Kupo who is on fire...." noticing the third "oh, uh..." quickly thinking "Hello, I'm Blaze and this is Saethwr" pointing at Sae, quickly adding "who has for got to introduce himself" hoping the relative normality of his introduction would defuse any potential 'situation'.

"I can't belive i forgot about Seathwr..." He stepped into the main hall, namira was probably scared out of her mind... Uh Oh... Namira, i'n her frightened state and grabbed a mana crystal from a hidden pouch. "Firga!" She said as a fireball balsted from the stone, aimed for Seathwr. Edward's quick reflexes saved his guests life as he whiped out a blue gem from his own pouch, blasting a beam of frost to extingush the flame. He quickl tackeled Namira, even though he didn't want to, and took the mana stones from her.

"Blaze... Dinner's ready, go into the dining room and set the table." There was the sound of smashing glass and laughing comeing from Edward's study. "What was that?!" He said, and saw what was the cause. The visit ex-templar had gotten into his liquor cabinat, and apartently can't hold any well aged whiskey... He stank of the booze, and in a fit oon anger, Edward threw the drunkard from his home. The templar wandered off into the forest, completely smashed. Edward handed the nocked out body of Namira to Seathwr. "Take her upstairs to the second floor, any of the rooms on the right are unlocked and safe. Most are bedrooms, leave her in there then come down to dinner."

Edward walked away into the study and breathed a sigh of releif, the record book wasn't damaged... He put away teh large book and shut his bar. He picked up the broken bottle of whiskey, without a stain on the carpet. "Man, that guy was a real class-a booze hound..."

By now, Chad, Leon, and Jeff had come upstairs as well, to investigate the gasp, see Edward, and find out what smelled so good. Leon was seen drolling on his fur, the intoxicateing small of the steaks was the best thing he'd ever smelt...

Saethwr nodded at Edward and did as he was told and took the now unconscious female upstairs to the bedroom where he set her down. He wrote a note apologizing for scaring her and for Edwards actions. He checked to make sure she was ok and went back downstairs for food.

O.O.C. Come on people post already

Don't let this die

Ragritz i'm looking at you

(OOC: OK! OK! But I don't like just putting in short nonsensical posts and/or posts which is basically what others have said before, when it is quite obvious what the character is doing, it just strikes me as a waste of both mine and everyone else's time to read a two sentence post, if it dose nothing for the story progression, just eats up space. If you can see my point.)

Blaze nodded to Edward and scurried into the dinning room, quickly clearing the table and retrieving the silverware and setting it out in the neatest way he could, he tried to remember how his mother did back at home and copied that, the smell of the food wafting through the room made him work a little faster. After he finished, he survayed the room quickly, it was he best he could do.

Blaze wandered back into the main hall, see no one around, he proceeded into Edwards study "May I be of any assistance Sir?" he asked walking over to Edward.

Saethwr was speaking to himself as he came down the stairs.

'Edward didn't have to do that to her. I mean yes i was saving me.........................and no-ones ever done that before but he didn't have to knock her out.'
His rage built again. As he came to the bottom of the stairs he saw Blaze talking to Edward but something else caught his eye. The weapon cabinet where his sword had been put had smoke pouring out of it.

'EDWARD!' he shouted, SOME HELP PLEASE!'

Edward said, "Just go wait in the dining room for dinner." He heard saethwr shout out and ran to find out what was the problem. Then he saw the smoke... "By the masks what have you done!" He said as he toar open the door, the sword red hot, barely still held in the sheath. It had burned though most of it, the bottom and the middle were gone, and it was torching the top quickly. His eyes darted around for something to do, His eyes spotted a stone chest under the stairs.

The quickly opened the chest and dumped its contents, a few sets of dirty clothes and collars. He grabbed one of the staves inside the closet and held up the sword but it's strap. he quickly brought the sword over the chest that was open, the sword burned though what was left of the sheath. The was a flash of flame, and the sword fell inside the chest. "Now listen, you'd better tell me where'd you get that blade, and everything you know about it. Oh, and your ex-templar friend got into my liquor, had to throw him out."

Saethwr lowered his head and began to tell Edward.
' Its my family's sword. It was.................given to me the night my father..............was killed. Some humans attacked my village...........................and destroyed it. The eye of the dragon on the handle is a rare crystal..............but i don't know how to control its power.........apparently there's more that just fire it can produce.'
He fell to his knees and started crying.
'Thats why i didn't want give it over earlier. That sword................is................all i have left.'
Inside the chest the sword cooled down and the eye changed colour, from red to blue.
'Edward................I'm so sorry' he spluttered

Blaze wandered back into the main hall seeing Saethwr on the verge of tears, looking concerned at Edward who was trying to comfort him and figure out what had happened, Blaze nodded at Edward as he saw Kupo come through from the kitchen.

"Come on mate lets go wait in here for a bit" grabbing his arm and stewarding him into the dinning room before he had the chance to see what had happened or open his gob and stick both paws in it.

"Relax you whiny little runt" he said, giving Saethwr a playful punch on the head. "I said i didn't want stangers walking aroudmy house armed. Remember, your a guest here, and can leave whenever you want, it's not like I'm stealing your sword. I swear, when did my house become sso full of drama..." Edweard pulled Saethwr to his feet, "Now dry your tears and go eat some steak, those tear make a good salt, so when you start bawling again, cry on your food, not on my hardwood floors. They'll get water rotten if you keep this up. Come one everyone, let's eat!"

He ushered everyone into the kitchen, including Kupo and Blaze who were hiding in the kitchen. He made sure everyone was seated, and not accepting any help, served everyone. "I'll go upstairs to get our other guest, everyone else dig in." Both Chad and jeff wasted no time, digging into their meals, two steaming steaks remained, one for Edward, the other for the questionable guest, Namira. There was an air of uncertiny in the air, Chad, Jeff, and Leon, still had no iea what really had happened.

Leon leaned over to Saethwr sitting next to him, "What hapened anyway? I smelt a lot of smke, did Kupo burn the steaks?"

Saethwr smiles slightly
'no i nearly burnt the place down' he says casually.
He takes a bite of his steak.
'Mmmm............wow these are fantastic. Nice work Kupo'

"Hmmm?" Kupo looked up with a bit of steak in his chops looking up and down trying to figure out who was speaking to him "Saethwr was paying you a compliment" Blaze Said tucking into his meal, Kupo looked at Blaze then at Saethwr, before half nodding in recognition going back to his food.
"you know I think the words "Two", "Planks" and "Short" are involved in your description some times" Blaze swallowed a peace of meat.

"Whut wsm thut?" Kupo said chewing his steak, "never mind gormless" Blaze went back to his meal.

As Edward approced namiras room, she was lieing on the bed she was placed on, rithing in her sleep, she spoke a bit. "Demon, long tail, those eyes, stareing right at me. That creture, coming for me, so dark is it's past..." Edward creeked open the door, only catching the last few words, "so dark is it's past..." The door creeking open awoke Namira from her nightmare. "The demon!" She cried, Edward was quickly by her side, trying to console her.


"Relax! Relax! it was just a bad dream..." Edward said, cringing slightly as her claws dug into his arm. Namira turned to look at her comforter, recoiling when he saw it was the one who had assaulted her. Her hands went for her bag of mana stone, but found it's space empty. What would this man do to her? "Sorry about the whole attacking you thing, but I can't have to trying to fry my other guests can I? You don' have to be scared about ol Sathwr down there though, he's nothing but a blubbering baby is all. I can assure you, he is no demon..."

Namira listen to Edward's soothing voice, and relaxed her grip, letting out a steady flow of warm blood. She looked at the blood and frowned, "did i do that?" She asked with a tone of regret. "Ah, it's just a scrattch nothing to worry about, I have plenty of healing crystals downstairs. Now, are you ready to go downstairs, our dinner is getting cold..." Namira looked at his hand, then the blood on her claws, then the door. The wonderful scent of steak was ickleing her nose, "Yes"

Both of them headed downstair, but halted at the doorway to the dining room, Namira clinging to Edward when she saw Saethwr again, still afraid of him, but slowly relaxed and looked away.
