Entering the chamber Marlonis explains his reason for request of shelter within Nyx

"Lah, der be a free fer all in da Bard's Chamber. Yous best get over der afore dat new brudder gets hurt!" Tasera said in a rush, and seemed out of breath, as she was strapping her favorite gun to her back.

"Oh? And why would that be, pray tell?" Lah inquired, raising her eyes from the manuscript she had been reading.

"It be like dis Sistah," Tasera snorted. " 'E done been pokin folk wid dis stick, like some back woods jumjum, an 'e poked Silmeria wif it. A course Sil punched 'em in da throat. Den dat stick a 'is flew outta 'is hand 'n hit Warburn. Came running ta get yous, an me gun just about da time when bloodlust hit da crowd. I be thinkin gonna need both."

"Lord have mercy!!" Asarelah exclaimed, grabbing her spell book and looking up Mass Mind Soothe as she motioned Tasera to head out the front door.

On the run, Lah's hands were already half clenched in casting, when they arrived in the Bard's Chamber. She watched as Tas unstrapped her long gun, preparing to defend if need be. Putting a hand on Tas' shoulder, she said "don't shoot him yet, sis. Let me try and sort this out first!" Tas nodded agreement, but continued preparing her shot, just in case.....

Lah could hear much shouting... but one voice rang clear of all the ruckus. Marlonis' shout rang over her head. "Marlonis give challenge to da Nyx. Marlonis want be part of da clan to learn ways of Horde and otder tingz. Marlonis prove self to da Nyx, dat be what what."

Asarelah watched in horror as Warburn prepared to brain the new comer with what looked like a walking stick.

"Stop!" Lah shouted, as she finished her casting, making eye contact with as many as she could. "I don't know what has happened here, but from what I could hear Marlonis seeks to learn. While killing him may be one way to "train" him in the art of warcraft, surely there must be another alternative?"

She could hear Tasera snickering behind her, and watched as Silmeria spat, stomped a foot to kick up dust, and then strode briskly out the front entrance. Warburn looked at Lah with a thoughtful expression, and glanced down at the walking stick in his hand as if he had never seen it before, and wondered how it got there.

"Hmmm, mebe we send 'em ta Hristoforos fer da trainin.... It be lookin like Sil 'ld just kill 'em outright." Warburn nodded in the direction the enraged paladin had taken.

((DISCLAIMER: Not to worry, Marlonis, NO ONE is mad at you..... This was just far to amusingly tempting to write up in this manner, and it truely WOULD be the reaction if some one really poked one of us with a stick. *snicker*))

Joo be goot. No no worry bout da dog bitting. Marlonis be of Hill and dat make muchz confusion. Stick poke be goot challenge to da Nyx. Fight sound goot. Be goot training for Marlonis.

No no make mad of da Nyx. Marlonis find friends fast! Chamber fill witd da many squishy Nyx. Marlonis poke more in da Tavern!

Marlonis muchz honored meet joo Asarelah. Joo be goot tiny. Be make friend in da tribe.

Marlonis be go find da squishy Silmeria. Dat be Marlonis fun friend.
