Theren is humming to himself as he re-strings his bow. New stitches are covering his arms and part of his cheek.

Phoenix is half-heartedly reading.

*annnnd bringing someone back*

An old dwarf staggers into the tavern. Blood stains his dwarven plate as he sits down heavily in a chair. Alric curses and he pulls out a helars kit and starts to patch himself up.

 Lore walks over and flops down to sit next to him. An owl-demon wearing a cloak of black feathers follows her silently, eyeing Theren. Lore smiles "Hey buddy."

Jack walks over and pokes Phoenix's cheek. "I can tell when you aren't interested in something.... If you dont like reading that then don't."

Kelipso looks up from sharpening his arrows at the dwarf and rushes over. He summons his staff of healing and taps Alric on the head. (Heal 9th level: Gain 100 HP.)

 "Hey Lore." he says with a smile.

"I am interested, I'm just... preoccupied."

"Thanks."

 Lore grins "How are you hm?" She asked and tilted her head. The Owl-Demon sits down on the floor and preens itself. 

"With what?" He askes and runs his fingers through Phoenix's hair, messing with it. 

"Can i ask what happened mate?" Kelipso asked and tilted his head. A massive Winter Wolf with bright blue eyes walks over and sniffs Alric.

 "I'm fine." he says, picking at one of his stitches.

"Well a bounty hunter nearly killed me yesterday."

"I...I dont remember.... I was on an expedition with a friend and I was fighting something...then I got stabbed. I dont remember anything after that."

 Lore burhsed his hand away from the stitches "Keep picking at them and they wont heal."

"Hm." He said and thought for a moment "I can still cast that wish spell to get rid of your Bounty."

Kelipso smiled sadly "Well.... it sounds like you died... Do you know where this friend is? or who they are?" He asked.

 Theren smiles sheepishly. "Sorry..."

"No. For the last time Jack."

"Well yes. His name is Theren." he then points at Theren who is talking with Lore.

 She grins again "Gods, do i have to be your nurse so you dont hurt yourself more?"

He huffs and folds his arms "I just dont want you disappearing one day."

Kelipso gets up and walks over to Theren. "Oi mate. Yer buddy is over there." He points at where Alric is being nuzzled by Gordon.

 "No. Most definitely not." Theren says with panic in his tone.

Phoenix takes Jacks hand. "I wont hon. I promise."

Theren looks over at Alric and smiles. "Good... It worked then. Pass a message to him for me will ya? Tell him to go find Oval."

 Lore smiles slyly and raises and eyebrow "oh realllllly?"

Jack instantly melts a bit. He sighs and kisses Phoenix's hand. "Mn. Your lucky you can sway me."

Kelipso groaned loudly and a bit dramatically in protest. He walks back over. "Yer mate says to go find someone named Oval."

 "Yeah. Yeah."

Phoenix winks at him. "Love ya."

Alric sighs. "I should. I need to." he stands up and says, "Excuse me, I must go find her."

 She gives a innocent look "So your saying you could beat me in battle hm?"

"I love you too" He says and grins before sitting down next to him. 

Kelipso waves and smiles "See ya!"

 

Oval is outside with the Lizard-Folk

 "Wha- No!"

Phoenix leans into him with a smile.

Aric walks up behind Oval and hugs her.

 "Exactly" She says and pokes the scar.

"How are you feeling?" Jack askes and opens his notes. 

Oval yelps a bit, his scales flashing bright neon blue before she notices who it is. Instantly, she breaks into tears and wraps him in a tight hug. "YOU... HUH. WHERE WERE... YOUR HERE!!!!"

Kelipso is sitting outside, in a tall tree overlooking a vast mountain range. He has his yew wood shortbow and a quiver of arrows. He is sharpening said arrows while whistling to himself. 

Lore is sewing a skirt that had ripped. She is accompanied by a owl-like demon wearing a feathered cape. Its emotionless face watches as she sews and talks to it. 

Oval is sitting below the waves of the water in the lake, meditating. Somehow, they don't need to breathe as they meditate.

Jack is outside, studying the miniscule patterns on a rock while sketching its design in his notebook. 

 

 A spot of black appears in the water. Then it begins to grow until it is about the size of a young dragon. A large steel hull pushes out of the surface of the water above the black.

 They yelp and swim upwards, gasping once their head bobs to the surface. They climb out and shake themself off.

 A drawbridge extends from the metal island, reaching the edge of the lake. A human-sized and -shaped crocodilian in a silver-laced suit and thick makeup walks out. They begin to make hand gestures toward the machine.

The black grows until it nearly consumes the lake as the rest of the vessel emerges: some huge, deranged, black-and-silver-painted hybrid of a boat, a submarine, and a spider.

As it reaches the edge of the water and crawls onto land, the black dissipates until the lake is clear again.

 Oval watches, their ear and tail frills flashing blue and yellow. 

 The... lizardfolk(?) waves their hands once more. The submarine settles down and begins to unfold slightly, setting up what looks like a reception area for a high-class hotel.

The reptile sets up a small sign:

The Silver Maw

High class, high speed, high safety

10 Gold per passenger

 Oval watches and tilts their head in confusion

 The creature finally notices Oval.

"I'm sorry, I wasn't aware there was anyone using the lake." They take a closer look at Oval. "My, what beautiful fins you have!"

 "A-All Axolotls have t-them." She said and hugged their tail.

 *Oval is a she/they, am I correct?*

"That doesn't make them any less beautiful." The creature finally notices Oval's mental state. "Do you need anything? I must once again apologize for disturbing you."

 *Yep. She is Demi-Female.*

"n-No. I just get nervous easily." She said and chuckled a bit.

 "I see. That doesn't justify my negligence, though." They rub their own eyes. "I must've been too busy looking for a safe place to land to notice you. Gods, I'm so exhausted."

 "Its ok." She said and grinned "Its a pleasure to meet you however, my name is Oval Hartapool."

 They sigh. "That's... great to hear. Its good to meet you, Oval. My name is Andy Castaigne. You want a drink? We've got everything."

They pause. "Oh, it looks like someone's looking for you."

 They turn around and see Alric and grin from fin to fin "FRIEND. HE'S MY FRIEND!!". They frills glow brightly as they begin to make unintelligible noises of happiness.
