Just said my opinion on the matter.

No worries, I just thought I'd explain the motivations behind it all just in case ;)

It also helps refresh my head about it all too :P lol.

Just a heads-up- two trees smacked my power drop into the ground, and the resultant power surge cooked my computer. (I'm presently at Kinko's). No idea when I'll be back up and running, but it shouldn;t be too long.

No power surge protector? Unfortunate. Hope to see you back soon.

Seems like it, I would think most of the night has passed from what was posted about Heinrich and Nostalia.

To Coan:
Ixevim and Kimuriel will make the hunted noble invisible for the time and then they'll pretend they play cards when the guards come asking.
They will ask the guards what they know about the fugitive trying to fish out information. Then and only then, they will decide what to do with the noble.
In need, Ixevim will use psionics on the guards, but Kimuriel and his social skills are propably high enough to learn what they want from the guards.
Kimuriel as a detective and Ixevim as a scientist want to know both the opinions on the matter before they decide. They will interogate the noble after they learn what they need from the guards, when things calm down a bit.
On a corner of their minds, they also have that she may be a tool for Ivana or somebody else who wants to harm them directly or indirectly. They are not naive to take a "lady in distress" as harmless as she seems and they know that treachery, lies and secrets abound in Borca. They'll not take anything she or the gurads say for granted. Simply, they both use sense motive and also know that the guards and the fugitive don't know the whole picture even if they tell the truth.

Ixevim (as a lawful neutral character) believes it is better to turn in the noble but knows that she will be executed (after the guards take advantage of her). THe way he sees it however, she took her chances with Lord Pieter and now she has to pay the price. He believes the price may be a bit steep, but after all they chose to ally with Ivana and this is important to him. More important than the fate of a decadent noble girl as he sees it.
Kimuriel as a chaotic neutral character doesn't care about loyalties to Ivana, Borca etc. If she really is a lady in distress (and he doesn't have to stretch his neck far) Kim will try to help her.

To Wiccy: Don't do it! Don't stay! Make Heinrich's heart as hard as a rock and decline :wink:

. . . So we can accuse you of being a bad role player that uses info only the player knows in the character. :wink:
No, in fact I can't see how a mercenary could escape this spider when he is so deeply entrenched in the web.

Bye Heinrich! You are lucky. Most mercenaries die by an brute with a sword or axe, not engulfed in the arms of a beautiful lady.

PS. That's what they call . . . "Embrace Death" :D

As any good roleplayer does, I took the third option, I went all politcian and talked alot, hoping she forget the question, lol. When she didn't I mentioned some fluff about not being fit to travel and not leaving her in her weakened state :twisted:

But come on, there's a chance of him surviving the wedding night... right???? errr... make that the ceremony... *looks worried* :shock::?::cry:

You aredetermined to call me a bad roleplayer ain't ya???? :P LOL

I don't think he will ever know! We are up to leave and I don't think Nostalia will follow us to Hazlan. Another love story will have to deal with the distance! :lol:

Love story? I'd say a betrayal story. She reminds me the mylady from the "Three Musketeers" when she persuades her guard to free her and also assassinate the Duke.

To Coan: How many guards are there? My sister asks what is "Pitter Patter"? Is it a kind of idiomatism or its just the way the noise sounds?
