[The wall to Allan's room is being repaired, after having crashed and shown Allan a lot more than he bargained for.As a result he is now camping out in the woods, he has a little den made up and a camp fire which is roasting a rabbit he'd taken from the kitchens on a spit. The smell of cooking meat is in the air and making his mouth water as Allen ( Read more... )

[Listens to the noise next door and the screaming in the journal, before burying his head under the pillow. Have a muffled...]

When the hell did this place get so bloody noisy?

[Have an amused and delighted Allan]

It's like I'm home again! No bloody kitchen boxes can try and kill me here.

Hey Marian, ain't this brilliant?

It's nice having someone from home around again, been nearly nine months since I last saw them all.

I guess the forest will be alright this time of year. Rain'll be a bit heavier now but you'd soon dry off in the sun. Not being funny but I think I'm starting to miss that hideout.

[Allan is out in the sun, his swords glinting in the summer sun.]

Hey, Jilly pet, you up for your self defence lessons?

[This is it, folks! The showdown you've all been waiting for! After Allen and Dick's disastrous attempt to help the hostages they too have found themselves imprisoned below...

As for Riful? The clamor of everyone gathering around her manor has pulled her from the depths within and she's standing outside in human form, wearing naught but a ( Read more... )

[You've all searched long and hard to get here--a strange manor surrounded by thick forests and right near the mountains that encompass Paradisa's castle. It's old-looking and you can't quite place the architecture...and it has an oddly empty feel to it. It certainly doesn't look like the place where a guts-eating monster would be dwelling, nor ( Read more... )

All these people disappearing, kids with em...Maybe it's a good idea to train up the younger lot to look after themselves a little.

You know, the kids and the more vulnerable lot.

This place is dangerous enough as it is, maybe they could use a bit of help.

Anyway if anyone's interested I'm happy to give it a go.
