Ok, I will start with the bad things first and get them out of my system before I add my happy little two cents in... The Ugly: Certain peoples' OOC comments about other players' role-playing or in-game methods of carrying out an action/scene. Seriously!? Do I even need to ask you why you feel the n...

Confident that she would not be persecuted for her heritage, Alice removed the scarf around her head, revealing a pair of slightly pointed ears. When Braidenvayl mentioned bringing her things upstairs, Alice tried to say 'All I have is right here in this bag. I can do it myself. It's no trouble'. Be...

Alice's eyes softened considerably that the mention of his hardships and losing his father. She nodded in reply. "My sister and I lost our entire family and the men we loved to a war that was never ours to begin with. I know all too well how much suffering war can bring." She sighed, stead...

Horrified by the man's mention of how he got his scars--specifically, who gave them to him--she stared at his work in silence. When the sword finally gleamed, reflecting the sun in her green eyes and making them all the more vivid, he spoke. At his mentioning of Crafters needing to stick together, s...

Alice breathed a sigh of relief when they said that half-elves were safe here, but her heart skipped a beat when they mentioned that there was a queen. Her past experiences with monarchies had been disastrous, but she bit her tongue and held her silence. She'd had a worse encounter with a Valkyn'vi....

Squeaking softly when he acknowledges her "spying" on him, Alice moves from out the shadows of the brush and bramble and comes slightly closer, unsure of who this man is and whether he is safe. "I--I didn't mean to spy," she says apologetically, "It's just, I'm a Crafter too...

Alice takes is hand from her shoulder, but holds it gently for a moment in comfort, giving him look that says 'worry not' before finally letting his hand go. "Hopefully, I can lend my skills to this town as well as I did Winter Haven. What can you tell me about these lands? I know so very littl...

There's a certain magic to it all, Alice thought as she watched the man from a distance. She could practically feel the heat from the forge where she stood, every ring of the copper hammer and the clang of steel giving her chills. She was reminded of when she was a child, watching the Elven Craftsme...

Satisfied with Serena's answer, Alice bowed in appreciation. She blink and looked around the Inn inquisitively, "Who else has come through the Portal? It certainly can't be just the two of you?"

At the mention of Dizzy, Happy, and Alrion's deaths, a very grave expression crossed her delicate features. For a moment, another wave of guilt passed through her. 'You should have been there! You could have saved them!' her mind screamed. Her heart felt close to breaking! At once, Alice's expressio...

"I'm fine! I'm fine!" she said, reassuring him and calming herself as she gave him a sincere hug. "I was just so worried that I'd come to the wrong place! I'm so glad you're alive! I was so scared for everyone! She blinks innocently, speaking in a rushed tone, "Who else made it t...

Gasping at the sound of her name, she spun around to see who it was that spoke.

"Hello? Who's there? How do you know my name?"

The Portal flared to life and in a blinding flash of light, a lone figure appeared from it. Kneeling on the ground, panting softly, a small Half-Elf with long red hair and green eyes surveyed her surroundings as a wave of guilt overcame her. She buried her face in her hands and cried softly as she t...
