"I see you point and while I don't trust them, I know Idraman did. If you think pursuing this is worthy of our attention, how should we proceed? Send out hunter squads in every direction? Do you know where these drones are located? Much of this world is still yet explored. Risking our lives against the elements and wildlife is a risk. Only a few individuals and single families make their homes beyond our walls. We've only just established communications with our Northeastern outposts. Organizing multiple search groups would strain our hunters thin, and their numbers are already starting to wain. Another loss today will not be received well for recruitment. Do you have any other ideas?" Archwin'd had an idea where Kour was going, but he wouldn't deprive him the chance to actually use his councilor authority. Despite his attitude, Archwin'd worried for the Doctor and knew he could use some time out of his lab. Interacting with the larger world and his fellow pioneers.
"I am sure that if you give me the imprisoned boy, I will... Find them. Given the Harlequins know of my importance and the need and knowledge of the drones, they will guide me one way or another, if not even Cegorach himself. However. I want the young prison boy with me, because he can fight." Arcadia leaned back and relaxed.
"With that I can only promise upon your findings with the dead Saurid Alpha. Once that has been confirmed you may approach Etrigen with your expedition. Depedning on the council's ruling, I'm sure Calypsa will want a hunter among you. They know the forest best... which isn't saying much. For now, let us return to our homes and call it a night." With that Chairman Archwin'd made to leave the chambers. The Wraithbone tree's flower petals had turned completely white and bloomd, before fading away. Returning to a look of death, until the sun shown in the morning.
"You are aware that no matter what, I will only go on this search with him. An the fact that the Harlequins came to me, not you, means that obviously they want me also to find said drones. Just as a healthy suggestion, Chairman." Dr. Arcadia rose and took his leave to get to work overnight on the autopsy.
OOC: Sorry for my absence, Will make up to you. I will however be busy for this week so I'll tie up last minute strings and set it right into next morning. Before the two completely parted ways, the Chairman had a few things more to inform the good Doctor. 'If you think going along with those tricksters and clowns is worth your time and that of others, I will support you. Just be prepared to convince the other councilors. As it now stands, our fifth councilor is an imposter. He was elected under false identity and his vote will not be considered. Which means we'll need to have a new councilor elected. Even if Praetor, I mean Nito decides to show up at the meeting tomorrow, keep that in mind. As for Etrigen, I believe the poor man has already spent enough time behind bars. I'll send word that he is to be released to return home.' "Don't start singing my praises too soon. There is still much to mack up for in this and even more to be done. But for now, lets enjoy the time we have. I have a feelings things will start to change very quickly." With that Leroy and Kurin had end of cycle meal together. Later return to Kurin residence for after meal rendezvousing. This would not be the end of Leroy Archwin'd's day. A few minutes later, Etrigen was visited by a familiar set of silver armor. Captain Argent arrived back from the fields in time to receive Archwin'd order to release the law breaker. 'Not that there's anywhere he could go. Just in case, I'll have him under observation. Defeating that number of pack dragons without a weapon is impressive. Killing that Alpha with farm equipment is too impressive." The silver helmed captain opened Etrigen cell. Two dark blue armored guardian took off his wrist binding. He was free to go... After Argent was done with him; "Hail, Blade of Khaine. Strength you radiate, but a moment of peace I grant you. Communion I desire." Elsewhere... Saurid dens were being raided by egg thieves. Smashed egg shells littered the once place of life. Covered in enormous webs. So many webs. At the same time s large migration of herd dragons where making their way towards the Exodite's valley. Finally, four raggedy looking Harlequins were silently watching over the Settlement. 'Looks like a show is coming to town. Better start printing the programs for the play seats. The show must go on!' Nito exclaimed. 'Shut up nito. It's cycle twilight and too early.' Black Skull groaned. 'Now I know why you play the Death. You killed the moment.' 'Both of you, silence your bickering. Less I sic the Mine on you.' Blue Devil Mask threatened. The mime continued to pretend to listening, but most likely was sleeping. After a quarter century of this every night, he had become immune. Make you wonder why they're out every night?
<Dr. Kour Arcadia> As planned the man once at home, with an uneventful stroll from the council building to there, he started to get working on the dead Saurid. Although while doing his work he could not get his mind of what happened during the day. The autopsy was more of an automatic process, even making notes without being really aware of it. His mind was still with the Harlequins, danger of the future and the expedition that was coming. They should be a solid and trustworthy group... Etrigen and his family, Kurin probably too as eyes of Archwin'd. Yes, that should be the minimum of the group... The night continued and when the work was done, Kour had to sleep only to think even more before Lileath embraced him.
Kurin did really enjoy her time with Leroy. She almost forgot about the saurid attack and the horrible doctor. When she waved Leroy off, at the end of his visit she couldn't help but to wish she was with him all the time instead of just a couple of hours per day. She walks into her room, sinking down on the bed and signing. Beginning to change over to her night robe, a light thing, as good as seetrough. She lies down in the bed, curled up and slowly begins to fall asleep.
- Etrigen "You may drop the formality Sir Argent of the Peacekeepers. I am no blade of khaine, and your conversation is welcome. I've been here talking to myself, it will be good to change the pace. From your actions I assume I'm free to go? I've already eaten, but I'm sure my family is waiting for my return. If you have something to discuss, I hope it won't delay me much longer." Etrigen says with a friendly face, as much as one covered in scars could anyways. Etrigen could tell the knight had a bone to pick with him. Why he did, Etrigen couldn't tell. However, since the two others hadn't left yet. It was likely not to ask for his secret bread roll recipe. 'Only Kythriel knows that, and that's more than enough already. Ajax will need to be dealt with, should he learn.' Etrigen joked to himself. Ajax was becoming a very capable chef. 'Must get it from his mother.'
