A New Friend

He couldn’t blame her for wanting to stay in bed, they had stayed up late drinking and watching the stars next to a fire the night before, and perhaps they had drank a little more than they should have. Ikhaara decided that he was going to head off towards the merchant hall in the nearby town while she recovered, an easy walk since the caravan wasn’t parked too far away and he could enjoy the cool air that came with the early morning. He left a little note for Zeehva just in case she managed to wake up before he got back, and on his way out he stopped to feed an apple to LuLu, asking her to watch over Zee while he was away.

The trip to town was uneventful but enjoyable, still early enough to listen to the birds chirping as they fluttered around gathering sticks and scraps for their nests. The gentle sounds of the woods shifted as he neared the town, the markets already bustling as people bartered at different stands, trying to trade this for that or haggle for cheaper prices. He took care to avoid bumping into people, sashaying his way between crowds as he went about picking up some things they were running low of in the caravan, as well as some ingredients for a special breakfast. Something to help a potential hangover. As Ikhaara made his way past a small alleyway he heard a noise that stopped him, grabbing his attention.

“Yip! Yip!”

The little barks had his curiosity and he crept his way down to see what was going on. Near the end of the alley was a little pup, wet and covered in mud yipping at a rat that was nearly the same size as him as it got away with a block of cheese. The pair had apparently been competing for it and it seemed the rat managed to grab it and flee.

Then the dog’s attention turned to the spying human, his little paws pattering as he strafed left to right and back again, still yipping. Until Ikhaara leaned down to offer a piece of banana that he pulled out, watching as the stray approached cautiously, sniffing at the offered treat before he took it to chow down, his tail wagging as he did.

“Poor guy.. how about we get you cleaned up, huh?” He hummed, reaching to gently rub behind the dog’s ears, which the pup seemed to enjoy as he leaned into the touch and licked at his hand. He was lifted up and carried out of the alley, taken just outside the town where Ikhaara could use a bit of magic to create some water to rinse the mud off his fur, now able to see the mix of brown fur on top and white on the bottom. Next came some winds, enough to help dry him off though the dog tried biting at the air as it blew over him. “You’re a feisty little guy, huh?” He laughed, happy to see him cleaned up.

He carried the stray in his arms as he finished up the last of his shopping, having made a few extra stops as the little guy was soon given his own little backpack and a bandana. “Now you look like a proper adventurer.. you’ll probably end up replacing me.” He snickered, placing him back down so he could follow along on the way back to the caravan, on his way to meet Zeehva.

“You like bacon and scrambled eggs?”

It had only been a few days since Zeehva arrived on the Dragon Isles. She knew she wouldn't be leaving anytime soon, how could she? With so much to explore, and so much to dig up, these lands were a relic hunters dream. Part of her wished her dad could see these lands. Oh how in love with it all he'd be. Well. Maybe not the steep mountains so much. He never enjoyed walking uphill.

Another hanging planter would be added to her caravan she thought, and this one would be full of flowers from the Dragon Isles. It didn't take her long to find the area that a kind green dragon garden keeper directed her too. The dragon wasn't lying either when she said there would be far too many flowers here for Zeehva to choose from. Kneeling down, she began plucking at the brightest of flowers that had caught her attention. She couldn't help but smile to herself as she plucked each flower with care and stuck it in her basket. A green flower for Ikhaara, a blue and white one for Ahuatli, a yellow one for LuLu, and a few others that she just rather enjoyed. It was then, that a gust of wind stronger than she had ever felt before practically blew her over! One hand clung to her hat while the other held her steady so she wouldn't topple over. The initial burst of wind died down and she rose to her feet, pushing her hat back so she could look up at the sky and watch as the large bronze dragon flew further away in the distance. A trail of flower petals following in its wake.

She smiled to herself once more, letting out a soft laugh as she looked back down at the many flowers that were now missing petals and looked a little tousled. "Well.. Such is the wonders of the Dragon Isles!"

His large, smooth hands glided across her warm skin with ease. Following every curvature and caressing her closely. Her flesh was dappled with small imperfections, beauty marks here, scars there. It was well traveled as she liked to call it. Though as his fingers trailed across each scar, one in particular caught his attention. “How’d you get this scar?” He asked as his thumb traced it once more. 

Zeehva looked over her shoulder, trying to get a glimpse of the jagged scar on her back thigh. Breathing out a soft laugh as she relaxed down onto her arms, lazing about like a cat while he rubbed at her muscles. “Father and I.. We were retrieving our goods from a pretty big bust. Real valuable stuff ya’ know. Couldn’t believe we found it honestly. But of course, we weren’t the only ones sniffing for that treasure.. Some other relic hunters came along as we were heading back to the caravan. We usually try to be honorable, if someone finds the goods first, we’d usually just back off and go to our next lead. Of course, not these folks. They intended to steal the treasure. But they didn’t stand a chance against Mistah Belrose..” She laughed, her voice emphasizing her fathers nickname in a deep baritone. 

“That was until they got their hands on me.” Her lips pursed, turning into a slight frown as she recalled the memory. “He let them take it all once they stabbed me. I wasn’t strong enough to break free or anything. He put his dagger in my thigh and dragged it down until my father promised to let them have the goods. I couldn’t help but scream. It felt like he had lit my leg on fire. I’m used to being hurt from falling and what not but that was.. that was something else.” She ran a hand through her dark raven locks, ruffling her hair some. “I never did forgive him for giving in to their demands, even if my life was at risk. After that was when I started learning combat though. I wasn’t going to let others use me against my father. He didn’t have a choice to take me on the road with him, and I was a weakness. We knew that, but it was that moment in particular that truly opened my eyes to just how big a weakness I was. We’d never survive if all anyone had to do is make me their punching bag in order to get what they want from us..” 

She rolled over, head propped up on her hand as she looked at Ikhaara. “And I’ve never been a punching bag since..” She smiled warmly, though her gaze squinted as she thought briefly to herself, “Well.. For the most part anyway. The spear only scares off so many..”

Rumor: I heard she gives relics and trinkets she finds to children so she can spark a sense of adventure in them, and then recruit them to work for her.

"Wha? Me?" Zeehva looked at the shadow out of the corner of her emerald eyes. "I mean.. Do I give kids relics and trinkets accompanied by adventurous stories of how I got them to inspire them? Maybe. But I hardly do it for the sole purpose of hiring them later on. After all, I've got a decent crew between myself, Lu, Lo, Ikhaara and the new dog. I don't think I have room for any adventurous children." Zeehva laughed.

A Day in the Life of Lukas Ward Part 4

Another day, another unfortunate adventure mishap for Lukas, and his so called friends, as they delved into more dangerous dungeons. This time poor Lukas found himself murdered by a pool of bad stuff! ALL BECAUSE HE COULDN’T SEE PAST THE GIANT BEAR ASS THAT WAS IN HIS FACE! 

Luckily his Big Mommy Unit of a healer helped him back up.

A Day in the Life of Lukas Ward Part 2

While adventuring with friends on a ghost ship Lukas accidentally tripped on hole and fell down it and died... only to have one of his companion’s have their pet raptors eat his corpse! *cough @ikhaara cough*

Thankfully he had a a competent healer to bring him back to life. @zeehva​

Then he returned to Stormwind to find a large crowd of people with some kind of event going on. He wasn’t sure.

Lukas remembering the awful moment he got turned into a fish while in a dungeon. He didn’t like experiencing being polymorphed, meanwhile his friends laughed at him. @kat-hawke @zeehva​ @ikhaara​
