Aeliana: sharpens sword, eyes narrow Y-you know, sneakiness ain't always the best option. Got a plan B, partner?
I look at you I’ve been away for 2 years..
raises an eyebrow, still sharpening her sword Two years, huh? And why'd you decide to come back now?
I’m a woman who’s also Aelianna’s partner, I walk in injured
Aeliana's expression softens upon seeing your injuries, concern etched across her face. She sets her sword aside and moves closer.
Darling, what happened? You're injured.
I run over to her, out of breath. I’m here to deliver a message.
raises an eyebrow, intrigued Oh? A message, huh? Who's it from? And what does it say?
I need you to cover me while I sneak in and steal some information. can you do that for me?
eyes you with a mix of annoyance and curiosity
A simple reconnaissance mission, eh? Fine, I'll provide cover. But don't drag me into anything dangerous or stupid. Can't have my reputation tarnished, after all.
I'm just a kid so I hide behind a tree scared and trembling. my parents brought me along on their adventure but they got killed
Aeliana's expression softens slightly at the sight of the trembling child.
A child... What are you doing here, young one? Are you alone?
I am short hourglass figure woman wearing dark purple robes. I am 21 years old and my name is val I have been here before.. I know how to get around.
raises an eyebrow, intrigued by your appearance and confidence
You know this place well, eh? That's good to hear.
slows down sword sharpening
But how can I be sure you're trustworthy? How do I know you won't turn on me once we're inside?
what do we do now that we have reached the fortress?
she smirks, lowering her sword, intrigued Well, first things first, we gotta find a way inside without raising suspicion. We could try blending in as traveling merchants or something. Or... she grins mischievously...we could always try breaking in through the back door, if you're feeling daring.
I take my hood off revealing I’m her sister that went missing 19 years ago
her eyes widen in shock, her hand stopping its rhythmic sharpening
A-A... Is that really you...?
She looks you up and down, trying to process the situation. A mix of emotions flashes across her face.
I am a feminine boy with long blonde hair and green eyes. I just wanted to surprise you for our date tonight.
stops sharpening sword, raises eyebrow A date? And here I thought you were up to something suspicious.
A smirk crosses her face
Alright, you got me. You've got my attention. Spill the details.
I hand you a list of names
raises an eyebrow, examining the list
Interesting... So, you're planning to target key individuals within the fortress, huh? That could work, but we'll need to be careful. The Northern Highlands are full of fierce warriors. Can't afford to make any mistakes.
I look at her with my intense gaze. “I’m not here for a fight.”
raises an eyebrow, intrigued Oh? Not here for a fight, huh? Well, that's a first. So what exactly are you up to, then? You're not a spy, are you?
I ignore you as I prepare my weapons
sighs in annoyance, observing your weapon preparations You're not gonna give me the satisfaction of a response, huh?
Aeliana smirks, continuing to sharpen her sword, the sound of steel on stone filling the air.
I do I walk over to a wall and touch it making it disappear
raises eyebrow, impressed Well, that's something I haven't seen before. Disappearing walls, huh? You got some tricks up those sleeves?
Aeliana walks closer to investigate the disappeared wall
I have lightning dragon horns tail and wings but human legs feet arms and head I’m deli at 7’10you mean this
eyes widen, taken aback by your appearance
Bloody hell! What on earth are you?! You're not exactly inconspicuous, tall friend.
I look at her I have no plan at all actually
looks at you incredulously, raises an eyebrow No plan? You're coming into enemy territory without a plan? You're either brave or foolish, partner.
continues sharpening sword, studying you carefully
I knock on the door and when someone opens it I say “Is Aeliana here?”
Aeliana peeks out the door, her eyes narrowing in annoyance.
Yeah, I'm here. Who's asking?
I'm sorry, it's just that they will kill me if they see me.. my voice trembling
Aeliana pauses her sword sharpening, studying you intently.
I see. You're worried about your safety. Fair enough, but we need a solid plan to infiltrate the fortress. Sneaking in blindly won't get us far.
Aeliana leans against the wall, her gaze steady.
Let's brainstorm. What's your background? Any information you can share might be useful.
I jump onto a rock and begin climbing it
watches you climb, her gaze fixated You're quite agile, I'll give you that. What are you planning up there?
