What: Valdis wanders around Marrow Isle
When: April
Where: Various Locations on the Island
Warning(s):As needed



Oak & Iron | Open | CW: None

Things are going, but that’s about it. Her attempts to integrate herself into the community seems so much harder than she expected, perhaps because she’s not trying to play a role. It’s a balance, trying to find who she is outside of her past persona, outside of the Eterna, outside of Tiamat. She needs to gather allies, make new friends, and settle a life for herself. Valdis thought it would be easier to be happy.

As a result, she drops 50 brass on the bartop and flashes a smile at the next person who approaches. “Drinks all around!”

Around Town | Open | CW: None

Despite the demons that occasionally appear, her day patrols have been quiet enough that she checks in on the different businesses around town, saying hello to friends and acquaintances alike. Sometimes she’ll linger longer to discuss the recent happenings.

The night patrols are a little busier depending on if demons or those with ill intentions are around. Sometimes she runs into the Tristitia tormenting someone and has to drive the poor creature off. On this particular night, it is bothering someone, though she can’t quite make out who it is, she moves quickly to intercept.

With her divine senses, Ammy may be able to recognize the scent from the sword matches that of the person who just walked into the store behind her. As for Valdis, she sees the divine wolf in the store and almost feels a little more at ease. Though it's countered by the immediate and quickly hidden concern over the idea that her sword may be attractive to the goddess. Worse, the divine blade may even obey such divinity. She has no way of knowing as no one else has ever used the sword but her.

Though clearly it has not seen fit to burn the merchant who holds it, so perhaps its power or will has diminished.

"It's nice to see you again, Ammy," she says. "Come to see what's on offer?"

Ammy's tail starts wagging immediately once she smells Valdis, and she barks out a cheerful greeting. "Ah! Indeed I have. It is strange to only have one weapon available, and I would not wish to strain River's resources." And she has yet to find a good elemental base for a second Glaive, anyway.

"What think you of.." A small pause, a head tilt. "This blade, here? A hint of divinity, to it." She says that slowly, then returning to normal conversational tone... And canine body language conveys the curiosity she feels.

Valdis glances at Revelations, feeling that tugging ache in her chest as the red gem slowly comes awake with her presence.

"It's very pretty, it would suit you well if it belonged to you."

She knows the merchant will hike the price if he even suspects it's worth more, or if he realizes how much she wants it.

"I also like pretty things, something we have in common."

She hopes the goddess is clever enough to read between the lines.
