Borris looked," ah, thank you! By the way, that girl you saved; she's awake. She's doing very well, perhaps you should see and and then try to rest. You have been awake all night."

 

[PenBlade1326]

Braxev shook his head. "I'm not tired...but thank you for the news of the girl, it's good to hear."

 

[Lance C]

Borris nodded," Very well, you will be eating with us later on though, yes?"

 

[PenBlade1326]

Braxev nodded. "I may deny sleep...but never a meal." He said and grinned.

 

[Lance C]

Borris laughed," Very good. I'll be off to help make that meal then. Good day."

 

[PenBlade1326]

"Good day." Braxev replied and ventured to the outskirts of the village, within sight, but not within mind of anyone. He sat down on a rock, setting his branch aside. He let out a sigh.

 

[Lance C]

Borris walked across to Edden and the elk-like creature he had killed. He helped the boy skin and prep the beast to meal. Abobad had woken up and decided to venture out of the tent. He looked about for Braxev until he found him where he sat on the rock." Braxev," He says in a soft voice, trying not to frighten the other with his sudden presence.

 

[PenBlade1326]

Braxev glanced upward at Abobad. "Oh, Abobad, you're up. Sleep well last night?" He asked in a soft tone.

 

[Lance C]

" I think you mean this morning." Abobad said with a smile, stepping over." I did not sleep well though, too concerned about last night..." Abobad walked over, sitting down next to Braxev." Any word on the girl?"

 

[PenBlade1326]

"The girl is awake. Borris told me, said she's doing fine. She's still in bed if you wish to see her." Braxev tells him.

 

[Lance C]

Abobad nodded," I might, but I wanted to speak with you first."

 

[PenBlade1326]

"Oh? What's on your mind, then?"

 

[Lance C]

" Two things; one is that these additions to our group may slow our travels. Moving you is very difference from moving four people, most of which I do not know."

 

[PenBlade1326]

"They're not part of the job. I think it best we do what we can...besides, it's the right thing to do.. And if he is a prince...the reward for helping him will likely be a great addition to your pay." Braxev said with a grin. "What was the second topic you wished to discuss?"

 

[Lance C]

" I am not saying there is any penalty for the additions, I just want you to know it may take a day or two longer than expected. We may want to wait until the girl is in better condition." Abobad swallowed and took a deep breath." The second thing is about that boy who helped us, Edden."

 

[PenBlade1326]

"Oh? What about him?"

 

[Lance C]

" Did you see the bruises he has? On his neck and wrists?" Abobad asked, looking genuinely concerned.

 

[PenBlade1326]

"I did...they worry me. Why? What do you suspect?"

 

[Lance C]

Abobad shook his head, glancing back to the village." At first I thought it might have been just physical abuse, being grabbed and thrown around by a parent or older sibling, perhaps even a partner but... The bruises on his neck and over his shoulders say something worse to me. I do not want to jump to conclusions but I have a terrible feeling about it all."

 

[PenBlade1326]

"What exactly are you getting at, Abobad?"

 

[Lance C]

Abobad sighed heavily and rubbed his face with one hand," I think that boy might have been raped..."

 

[PenBlade1326]

Braxev let out a breath. "Damn...I was afraid you'd say that. But who by? His uncle? A friend? Or some pervert in the village?"

 

[Lance C]

" I can assure you it is not his uncle. Not the one that is here at least. He said he came here to get away from an incident and I think that is it." Abobad shook his head," Letton has told me about that boy's father before, he would not do something like that, and he sure as hell would not let the person who did it anywhere near his son. They are an odd bunch of people but they take care of their own."

 

[PenBlade1326]

"I was wondering why the boy acted so strange and nervous...perhaps that kind of trauma did it to him. Poor boy..." Braxev said, lowering his head. "I almost wish the rapist comes here to us...I wanna show him a piece of my mind." Braxev said, snapping his fingers and lighting them aflame, then snapping them again and the flames go away.

 

[Lance C]

" Knowing the culture that child comes from, the person who did it is most likely already dead." Abobad said," Still yet, I wish we could do something for him...."
