Aleu poked her head out the door and nodded. "Please. Ari, go into that shed in the back. There should be some smoked meats and stuff in there. Cyrus, you can make salad. Here's the bowl," she handed him a bowl. "Here's a spoon and fork." She gave him the named materials. "And here's the veggies." She tugged him inside and pointed to a mound, if it could be called a mound, of vegetables. More like a mountain, actually. "I'll go to the well for water." "Uhm... o.. kay..." Daymn, that's a lotta veggies. "...never had a salad before... I feel like some upper-classman. 'Would you like your tea now, sah?' Hahah..." Cyrus laughs to himself as he begins slicing the vegetables with his kusarigama. "Glad I keep this thing clean..." About half an hour later he emerges from the kitchen, the bowl filled with salad. "Martel above, you guys have enough vegetables? Here's your salad. Anything else I can do, or is it time to eat?" "...Cyrus, be a hun and peel some of those vegetables for the stew?" "...More... vegetables..." He paled at having to tackle that mountain of greenery again. "...sure, why not." He heads back to the kitchen and begins peeling vegetables for the stew, wondering how on earth they'll finish all this green. -f0n9

"Alright, that works fine." Arynielle walked around the forest, until she found a wooden shed. When she opened the door, the smell of smoked and dried jerkies and meats of all types fumed out. Wow... these people sure like to store stuff for a rainy day. Ari found a woven basket in the corner and began filling it with food.
The half-elf went back to the main house. "Here's the meat you asked for, Aleu."

Aleu nodded gratefully. "Good, can you stick in it the pot over the fire? Here, pour this in with it." She handed her a pail of water and stalked over to Cyrus. "How's it going? Lots of veggies for us? Good, that's enough." She slid the vegetables onto a plate and dumped them into the pot of water and jerky, adding some herbs and whatnot. "Now go on over to Kapu, it'll be done soon. Shoo, shoo!"
I sound like an angry housewife, she thought to herself with some amusement.

Cyrus quickly leaves the kitchen and takes a seat next to Kapu. "Well Mr. Wolf... you've certainly got a nice setup here. House of your own, food for plenty, a wife and daughter... you're set." "...just out of curiosity, if you don't mind my asking... HOW IN THE NAME OF THE TREE CAN YOU AND YOUR FAMILY TALK?! ...I'm sorry, I just have to ask." -f0n9

I'm Kapu. This is Silver, my wife, and Kara, my daughter. How can I talk? Mana. Simple as that. I have the blood of magic in my veins, and Silver does as well. Long story, if you care to listen. Long and a little dull... to me anyway. Other people seem to like it. Anyway, Kara talks because we can. That clear things up?

Kapu shook his head vigorously. No no no! It's not that I don't want to tell you. It's just that I find the story boring, and it's not polite to bore your guests.

Kratos' renegade me, disguised as desians were guarding around the base making sure Lloyd and the others wouldn't suspect it was him who took the trietians hostage. Kratos went up to the mayor in one of the cells and said "Well, are you going to tell me the whereabouts Mr. Mayor? I don't want to hurt or kill any innocents...it wouldn't be in men." ((Whoops!! Kratos posted and I didn't even realize til two pages later x.x')) Renoun 'pft'd and walked through the door, disposing of the guards that opposed her.

Kriven sniffed, something was cooking alright and it smelled good.
"What's that smell...is it food? Smells like good food."

Aleu nodded, carrying the cauldron into the room and setting it on a rack. "It is good. It's stew. Kapu, you know where the meat is. Dried okay?"
Fine by me. He went to get the meat.
Aleu nodded. "Help yourselves then," she said, handing out bowls and putting a ladle into the pot.

((hm? Kratos, thou hath thuroughly confusified thee @.@')) After reaching that weird room (gamecube!) Renoun went to the panel and selected the one she would think would most likely go to the prison (seeing how I don't remember the room names). Several fights later, Renoun found herself in the prison area, were she saw something of interest. "Hello again," Renoun said raising a brow as she saw Kratos.

Aleu gave them all an offended look as Kapu returned. "You don't like it? Eat up!" To prove her point, she scooped up some of the stew with her bowl and put a spoonful in her mouth.
"See, it's not that..." She was stopped short midsentance. "Excuse..." Aleu retched. "Me... I'll be off to the bathroom for a moment." She scurried away, hand over her mouth, and slammed the door. Seconds later, the group heard Aleu's meager lunch splash into the bowl, then a flush later.
"Sorry about that. Whoo... I think I put too much of that wolfsbane in the stew... Maybe it doesn't go well with comfrey." She shrugged and took the bowl of salad, and plunked it on the floor. "This should be good to eat, I haven't done anything to it. Yet. Maybe salad tastes better fried? Or baked? Nah, I'll probably burn it."
