*The walls are bright with flowers and the long grass is scattered with dandelions, growing up around the fortifications. She smiles at the sight and settles on the edge of the "building" with a letter edged in gold under her scrutiny.* _________________ Crystal Rose Fleetfoot

*Some days later...
...armour gleams in the setting sun as a figure approaches the ruin uncertainly. Vau stops short of the stakes sprouting from the long grass and turns to consider the path leading back down to the south once more.* _________________ "Was tust du, Was fühlst du, Was bist du, doch nur ein, Tier"

*Crystal comes up to the ruin from the river, barefoot and thus walking tentatively through the long grass.*

*Vau turns with a snarl, obviously oblivious to her approach from the unexpected angle. Several emotions race briefly across his face - anger, discomfort, guilt, fear - but then are eclipsed by the happiness to see her. He steps toward her involuntarily as if to hug her but then his discipline cuts in like a physical blow and he stiffens to a more militiristic pose.*
*growl* Crystal-az not know if you here.
I come to report on militia *snarl* ... no ... come because miss you ... *growl*
*His brow furrows as he tries to sort out obviously jumbled thoughts.*
Actually not sure why come *rrrrr* ... not sure you'd be back. Took many Uruk and Snaga back to Isj-hai after slay Ologdushatâr of Akrbolg-hai that take control of Forzunkghammp-hai. *growl* Not want to stay, not want be there, not want be Exmead, not know where want be.
*Vau's ramble cuts off abruptly as something seems to occur to him, and he continues in a more formal tone.*
How are you Crystal-az *growl* You not diseased, your family not diseased, you and your loved ones all uninjured and free from ills, you have all eaten sufficiently and have wealth enough for needs? _________________ "Was tust du, Was fühlst du, Was bist du, doch nur ein, Tier"

*Crystal remains silent for several long moments, half-smiling with amusement.*
Which bit would you like me to respond to first? *she grins*
I, and my family, are all happy, healthy and whole. I came here cause I had nothing much else demanding my time after the vampire slaying and figured that I should.
As a point of interest, why are you almost-saluting? You're radiating military bearing and we're not on adventure... _________________ Crystal Rose Fleetfoot

*A flash of irritation is followed by a look of shame*
*Growl* Anger harder control. Try to use military discipline to control. *snarl* All feeling harder to control. Was with Tesrae Militia when Urukdushatâr cast influence on I. Manage to *rrrrr* 'ride' fury long enough to use against Urukdushatâr and ally, but then lose all control. Militia and Templar manage stop I from hurting kaalgrisch.
Not want be near kaalgrisch, they not as I. Not want be near uruk, they also not as I. _________________ "Was tust du, Was fühlst du, Was bist du, doch nur ein, Tier"

*Crystal shrugs*
Neither one nor t'other. You don't think quite like a human, nor quite like an orc. It's no big deal, I don't think like a human, or like an elf. I'm not either.
*she raises her eyebrows and adds, archly*
Do you not want to be around me then? I believe we've had many arguments about whether or not I'm kaalgrish. _________________ Crystal Rose Fleetfoot

*Vau meets her gaze with an expression of firm honesty*
Not know for certain Crystal-az. You are kaalgrisch, but know I better than any. *growl* Heart want be near you, but feel shame when see I loose control. *snarl* Not what meant though. Not know whether go to tribe, go to pureblood town, go temple, or come here.
Feel need go home. *growl* Not feel like have home. _________________ "Was tust du, Was fühlst du, Was bist du, doch nur ein, Tier"

*Crystal shrugs again*
You've seen me lose my temper, admittedly, it's not so spectacular as you doing it. As I recall, it surprised you, but you weren't disgusted by the fact I can actually feel those very common emotions of anger and hatred.
Grandmother uses a very old saying, one that is very apt for gypsies like me, "home is where the heart is". It's not about places, though it is often about people. _________________ Crystal Rose Fleetfoot

Anger can be good. Outrage can lead positive action to right a wrong. *snarl* uncontrolled rage is wrong, hatred is wrong. *growl* Never see you have hatred. *rrr* Or let rage run out of control.
*Vau blinks as if only just catching up with another train of thought.*
Kaalgrisch grandmother of you say home where heart is? *growl* Metaphor? *rrr* So if heart say want be near you, then home is where you are? _________________ "Was tust du, Was fühlst du, Was bist du, doch nur ein, Tier"

*Crystal smiles crookedly*
I'm fairly certain I hate Equinox, the very presence of the man gives me a powerful urge to stab him. But that would be awkward, embarrassing to Richard and really inconvenient if I got caught.
And yes, I believe that is the gist of the saying. _________________ Crystal Rose Fleetfoot

*growl* Not certain that feel hatred for *snarl* Ekquinoks *rrr* Crystal-az. You angry that he did terrible thing with portal, angry that he not punished, angry that he cheat to get power, and angry that he may still do evil now. *snarl* That not hate, that logic.
*growl* Hate like metaphor:undead. Like dead ghost of living anger, hate carry on when should have passed away. Like undead hate always evil, hate always destructive. *growl* Hate metaphor:cold while anger metaphor:hot.
*Vau raises a hand to touch her hair in a gentle gesture..*
You young *growl* passionate, warm. You feel hot anger when see injustice, because you are good and honest person.
*Very careful not to tread on her bare feet Vau moves to her side offering her his hand to walk up the hill to the ruin.*
Think you right *rrrrr* I not feel right with Isj-hai or elsewhere. I come here when you not because remember felt right here, *growl* but when was here, did not feel any better.
Anger and hate so strong now. *growl* Harder to resist than when was seared in Konn. *rrrrr* But then they want I to give up, to accept you dead, to accept defeat, but I not want. *rrrrr* This harder because blood screams that want to follow fury.
Came here to try to find more strength. *snarl* Feel ... need ... need to be somewhere *rrr* need to ... belong? _________________ "Was tust du, Was fühlst du, Was bist du, doch nur ein, Tier"

*Crystal accepts the profferred hand blithely*
I think you over estimate me. Besides, your anger and hate at present is going up artificially. Same way as the elves had when the Prince was about and making mischief. It doesn't make it go away, but knowing it doesn't come from any purpose takes blame away. It's not you, just a passing problem.
*she grins*
Should be sorted soon anyway. _________________ Crystal Rose Fleetfoot

*Vau walks with her at an uncharacteristically slow pace through the long grass, eyes and other senses alert for concealed rocks, snakes or other threats.*
*growl* In Isj-hai we not accept fail to control self because of outside source. *rrrrr* We see tainted blood that try to make us do evil as something that must be resisted *snarl* as must all evil be resisted. Fail to stop evil just because is strong is still source of shame.
You good person though. *rrrrr* I see even if you not see. *growl* You should have more pride in self. _________________ "Was tust du, Was fühlst du, Was bist du, doch nur ein, Tier"

*Crystal stops to give Vau an incredulous look, then she laughs*
Pot calling kettle black. I have plenty of pride and always acknowledge my accomplishments.
What happens if someone casts an obey at you to do something awful and you are out of magical resistance? That's not a failure, just an unhappy accident, feeling guilty about stuff done under magical influence is just silly. _________________ Crystal Rose Fleetfoot
