The Dragon Quest [ME4]

[Akh Uur Hoon]

Akh Uur Hoon came early to the Scratch Stone, and was killing the wait by reading it with some attentiveness. She had devoted too little time to it in the past, and maybe now wasn't the best time to focus on it, but perhaps something freshly added would shed light on things on her mind.

[Illiam'iira]

Illiam'iira's one of the first to arrive, her bodyguard in tow. She sees Akh studying the wall and pauses -- she doesn't want to disturb the woman, not yet.

[Ikkit the Bastard]

Ikkit may well have already been there.

Waiting. Lurking.

And observing.

[Akh Uur Hoon]

There may be more lurkers in Ikkit, actually two more, to satisfy the rule of three.

[Quevlin'e]

Quev is standing on Illia's right with his shield in one hand and a mug of milk in the other. He sips.

[Illiam'iira]

Eventually Illiam'iira moves to stand with Akh Uur Hoon and gaze at the wall. "Miss Akh?"

[Flession]

There's a lot of assored poetry on the wall, most of it terrible. Romantic shouts. Not to mention, if you were looking for a good time this evening, you now have a name you could potentially summon within Sigil, since summoning magic would bring a creature already here in the Plane to you.

On the bottom portion of the wall, however, there were a few location names with X's and O's marked next to it. Rather odd, really.

((Anyone with Thieves Cant can read this code to determine its meaning.))

[Akh Uur Hoon]

Akh remembered the Cant from the time she... it didn't matter now. "Yes?" She turned toward the voice.

[Cyprian Kircheis]

Cyprian lingered next to Akh.

~snip~

Once upon a time he might have summoned the name out of curiosity. These days he's quite content and rather uninterested in possible avenues for easy blood acquisition.

Eventually Illiam'iira moves to stand with Akh Uur Hoon and gaze at the wall. "Miss Akh?"

He does turn in surprise at Illiam's voice. "Illi! Good to see you again! And you as well Sir Knight!"

[Ikkit the Bastard]

"This everyone then?"

Ikkit melted out of the shadows as only a creature of his incredible majesty and grandeur could, which is to say that aside from the shock value of his emerging from hiding and the dulcet tones of his voice, the effect was rather like what a large rat emerging onto the scene would have been.
