@Jotnotes If I don't manage to get a post out today then feel free to skip me, sorry for the inconvenience mah doods.

Alfonso’s gaze turned towards the voice that called out to him, a man used to combat as any soldier could tell. Giving his wife-to-be’s hand a pat he gave Ydris a polite nod of the head. ‘Quite the concise fellow you are, pleasure to meet you Ydris I am Alfonso head of the Aelindra Council.” Deciding it would be rude of him to not introduce himself before he got to the meat of the matter he made sure at least his name and position were known. “Well I might not be the most knowledgeable of all Genesaris but I can perhaps point you to a few places of interest on this fine continent.” He said giving a rueful smile. So far he had managed to at least meet one interesting fellow at this party. “ The Velhatien Desert though a wasteland of sand and scorching heat has many ancient ruins which one might wish to investigate, along with the myriad tribes that inhabit the place.” In fact recently the desert has become a place of interest to both Aelindra and the council as a whole, might as well share some minor information with this adventurous man. “You might also wish to check the Bloodmage Mountains I hear there are some strange happenings that are often spoken by many travelers.” His free hand began to rub his chin in thought. “You might try the Cold Mountains, or if you like a little bit of Nature the Bloodstone Marsh.” Tapping his chin once more in thought he tried to recall anything else he might remember. “ Well for now you might find those places to your liking and if you ever need anymore information I am certain the guilds in Aelindra would be happy to lend you their knowledge so do stop by the most glorious city in the West.” He winced as he failed to catch himself this time. He was often trying to sell visiting his city, after all tourism is a good source of income. He knew there were perhaps more places to list but as of yet he couldn’t recall already his mind was preoccupied with the East as this would be the first time he had ever stepped foot on this side of the continent. “Well old boy I hope I was at least helpful is getting your adventurous spirit ignited, sadly my forte requires me to be with the army or politicking.” He gave a self deprecating smile as he reached out his free hand to give Ydris a chance to shake his hand. “Perhaps you might answer a few questions of my own? It wasn’t often he might get a chance to learn about the changes in the Midlands and for that matter any changes in the world at large. “I quite curious on how Koji came to power so quickly, more importantly however is what lands you hail from, I think I sense Renovatian in your accent?” He’d met those who hailed from the floating continent once before and so he had a feeling that this many might be from there, or perhaps Tellus Mater in general. I am quite curious about the nations outside of Genesaris and am always looking to learn more in the hopes of understanding our neighbors better. There was a childlike curiosity to Alfonso that had perhaps come from his mentor in his more informative years, there was always an insatiable desire to learn that had always stayed with Alfonso @Chappu @Aleksei

Post and questions around 6-7am had to cover an extra shift because someone quit. xD

If I don't have a few questions or a post out by today it will either be around 5:00pm tomorrow, or the day after.

No work

I'll be off Monday, I'll try to have a post out asap

=D

Had surgery for teticular torsion monday and I've been recovering, due to the fact that they had to remove my right testicle so if I seem to disappear every now and then its mostly due to the pain medicine, or if my posts don't make sense.

Alfonso did his best to look as well dressed as possible, though Western fashion was quite different from the newly reformed Midlands and the East. Much of their formal wear was based around military dress, and had been since before he was even born. It seemed to him that Aelindra tended to take much pride in the fact, and he wasn’t one to begrudge them of it. Amber eyes peered out at the festivities then back to his cuffs. Holding the cane under one arm he went about making sure everything was in proper order. His attire was as stated before untaliterian, reminiscent of an officer’s full dress. His boots, knee high and made of well polished leather shined in the lamp lights, at least he looked the part of an Aelindrian official. “Well dear, I do hope this goes well, never been to the Carmine Dominion so hopefully I can remember whatever etiquette is required for polite conversation.” He gave a wry smile to his beautiful companion before offering his right arm to her whilst his left leaned lackadaisical against the ornate cane. “You look ravishing love.” He meant it too, though he and his companion had known each other since they were children he had to admit, there were none who could match her flaxen haired beauty. The journey had been a relatively smooth one, though there were none in the whole of Genesaris that could deny the West’s achievements in magitech especially when it came to airships. Granted the ship's captain had tried to make the journey as enjoyable as possible which was no mean feat. Ever since the Whispernight many eldritch horrors have taken to the skies, some of which massive and as deadly as even the largest airships, it seemed that luck and of course powerful weaponry had been on their side. “I do hope you enjoyed the airship, it's one of the newer models based off of one of the ships we procured from Telerian.” He almost had a child like smugness to his smile, after all it was one of his better ideas. “Usually is it customary for the man to take the lead, but alas I’m more content with you doing so,” leaning in he gave her a kiss on the cheek. He wanted his fiance to have as much fun as she desired, and who know with her taking the lead she may very well lead them to meeting some interesting individuals. “Now my dear let's do as everyone else and mingle.”

There was always at least one who had to touch the weird dead bodies often discovered during an adventure. Did Azytzeen know it was a trap? Of course not. Alas there was naught he could do to fix past mistakes. If he had been more attentive to the strange body he might have been able to keep Natalya from poking it, which seemed to be an odd thing kids these days do. “Back in my day we usually left the corpses be,” he said with a sigh. The stench from the burst corpse was still pungent, and cloying much like what he was used to when he fought on fields of battle the world over. If one thing had to be different, it could almost be said to be an old, ancient smell. He knew better than to assume the body was left here recently, no this strange place was filled with all manners of horrors and oddities that would have to be pondered later. That was of course if they made it out alive. “Alright girl up we go.” Much like before he unceremoniously flung the wounded girl over his shoulder, regardless of the pain she was in, or his rough handling he wouldn’t be able to live with himself if he simply left her there. “Next time you shouldn’t go poking corpses.” He had thought of healing her but he doubted she would appreciate his ministrations. After all the warp was not as gentle as what the other might be able to do. His single blue eye peered over the room, so far he had been lucky to go unnoticed though he knew it would not last for long. With his new cargo, and thanking the gods she wasn’t fat he began to pick his way across the room towards the others. Keeping a mind that the creatures filling the room were not the most dire things they would have to face. Whatever was coming filled him with dread, much of it thanks to the being in the glass tower. The memories it shared were useful other times merely an annoyance. “No grit your teeth and bear it, if you hadn’t gone on poking the dumb corpse you wouldn’t be in this mess.” Keeping his free hand and accompanying sword at the ready he quickly, and with surprising grace whilst in full plate made his way over the archaeologist. He made sure to keep the other birds presence in his thoughts. “Oi, we better hurry those heavy footsteps belong to worse than a few undead critters.” he yelled out. Regardless if he caught the creatures’ attention it didn’t matter. They had to leave and do it quickly while they still had the chance to do so.

Azytzeen will make his way over to Natalya and will do what he did before throw her over his shoulder. Trust me you don't want him healing her wounds. Remind me, is she still being attacked?

Apologies had to work I'll have a question or two out here soon.
