I know you all might be a bit tired of hearing these, but please bear with me and hear one more.

We have asked that some stay behind to guard the Castle, and it is not a bad idea. I have opted to stay as part of that group, given much of my skill is magical in nature and will be nullified in the Dead Zone. That being said, there are also parts out there where magic could work and not knowing what you will find, I thought to make charms of protection for people to take.

While they might lose their power in the Dead Zone, if magic is regained, they could come in handy, especially if you should face combat. It is a long shot, but I would like to make everyone as prepared as possible, in any way we can. If you would like some, please contact me through the journals or if you run into me in the castle I also know how to pack for long land journeys if anyone is having trouble deciding what to bring.

If nothing else, I hope they might bring luck and comfort.

When you spare moments, find me?

I have many moments to spare for you. How can I help?

If you are willing, I could use your help with the charms. The pleasure of your company is nothing I would not mind either.

_{[ His voice is warm as he speaks to his lover, not yet broaching the
subject of if Tylendel planned to go or not, though he had made clear his
own stance. ]}

I will do what I can, but yours is the greater power. (He hasn't used his powers since he arrived. He isn't sure if he should.) You know I'm going with you, right? I'm not letting you out of my sight.

Besides, I think it's worth the risk too.

_{[ He blinked on his end. ]}

Ah, Tylendel... I am not going. I decided to remain here, in case of an attack since the Dead Zone nullifies my magical ability.

I suppose I need to work on my reading comprehension. (The idea of using his magic threw him off. He's trying to seem normal.) I'm staying beside you regardless. I don't care the risk.

_{[ He smiled at that. Tylendel, his brave golden boy... ]}

Good. I would not see you from my side either. But, what say you and I enjoy lunch before we get to work? I could use all the energy I can get.

I'd like nothing better. Are you craving anything in particular? I haven't been the most attentive lover lately. It's...

(Better not get into this here.)

We can talk over food.

Of course.

_{[ He could hear something was wrong, but trying to push Tylendel to
say or do anything was like trying to herd a cat at times. Best to let him
come forward with it on his own. ]}

There's a dish a friend of mine introduced me too. We can go out to the gardens and I can wish it up. I think you will like it, 'Lendel.

I trust your palate. I'll meet you out there shortly. (Everything will become simpler when he is near Van; he is sure of that.)

(ooc: Do you want me to start a log? Or would you prefer an action thread?)

_{[ ooc: Action thread is fine :) ]}

_{[ Vanyel goes outside, commandeering them a spot beneath a fine tree
and spreading out a blanket the color of his favorite dark blue. Oh, he was
peacoking again, but it was one of his lovable traits wasn't it? He settled
down to wait for 'Lendel, sure the other would find him soon, concentrating
as he wished up the dishes Clow had introduced him to, opening his eyes to
a world of culinary delights. ]}

(ooc: So you know that laptop I was using... I spilled ginger ale on it and it shorted out. Yeah. /screams Good thing I have another computer I can use.)

(Tylendel is wearing a golden brown shirt and dark brown pants, which bring out the golden tones in his hair and on his skin. He has managed to gain some color since arriving - mostly thanks to his rather curious nature - but he still isn't as tan and healthy looking as he once was.

Regardless, the moment he sees Van, he beams and hurries his steps, stretching out his legs so he covers more ground. When he is close enough, he gives his lover a very warm kiss as a greeting.)

Did you wish for this blanket, Van? (He chuckles at the hue.)

_{[ Always his lifebonded was beautiful. It never failed to amaze him,
that the sight of him was like watching a god come down from the heavens.
He laughed at the comment, accepting the kiss with a pleased flutter of his
eyes, resisting the urge to moan. It was a terrible habit of his, making
such noises whenever Tylendel kissed him, and he should curb it for the
sake of decorum. ]}

Well, it was this or sit on the grass, and I would hate to see your trousers stained.

_{[ He patted Tylendel's knee and then turned as he wished up their
food, steaming plates of Chinese dishes that smelled of lemon and orange
and peppers. ]}

I'm a bit new here - Name's Meg by the way - and I wouldn't mind taking you up on some of that advice about preparing for the trip. I've agreed to go on this expedition to help out with the trouble, and find out more about this place for myself. I'd appreciate any tips, especially regarding the possibility of powers being of use in the Dead Zone after all. I have certain capabilities that might come in helpful if that's the case so I'd like to be ready. I'm ok going in without them, but I sure won't pass up going full throttle if I'm able to, ya know?

Of course, anything I can do to help. Would you like to meet then? It might be easier to show you what would be good for packing, which will depend on if you have an animal or not you plan to bring, and you could show me your powers in person so I have an idea of those too.

Sure. Where should I meet you?

Ah, I am fairly open to anywhere of your choosing. It depends on the nature of your power. Does it need more room to be shown?

Not necessarily. I was told that it might be wise to check the stables for extra horses, maybe we can just meet there?

Yes, that would do fine. My family is famous for breeding horses, so I can actually help you select a mount if you like.

Perfect. I'll head down now.

All right, I will be there shortly.

_{[ He will leave a quick note for Tylendel and then make his way down
to the barn, dressed in doe-skin trousers, knee high dark brown riding
boots, and an emerald green tunic that compliments both his trousers and
his boots as well as his dark hair with its streak of silver. He smiles
when he sees the young women he thinks is the person he was talking to
earlier. ]}

Ah, were you the one requesting help with preparing for the expedition earlier?

[Meg is no stranger to horseback riding. She shows up wearing simple black riding boots, perfectly worn-in form fitting jeans, a black tank tucked in and a studded black leather belt around her waist. Her curly hair is done up in a loose, high ponytail with wild tendrils escaping to frame her face. She's peeking into the stables and periodically scanning the horizon for the person she is meeting.]

[She turns when she hears a voice behind her.] Yup, that's me. Thanks for meeting me. [She sticks out her hand to greet her benefactor.] I'm Meg.

_{[ He nodded his head and took her hand, automatically raising the back
of it to his lips and pressing a soft kiss to it. Not in a creepy way, but
a polite way, a gentleman to a lady as his mother had taught him. The habit
was so firmly ingrained, he hardly thought about it as he did it.}

In the back of his mind, Yfandes laughed. ]

A pleasure to meet you, Meg. I am Vanyel. Now, where would you like to begin?

[She smiled politely. She had, of course, lived through the heyday of chivalry, and she could certainly appreciate the gesture.]

Pleasure to meet you as well, Vanyel. I suppose you're the expert. Why don't you lead the way?

_{[ It was something Vanyel would probably never lose. His mother had
ingrained it into him, and at court it was a necessity.}

He nodded his head and lead her out of the barn and over to a paddock. ]

There's quite a few horses without owners, but I Yfandes would have a better idea of their personality than me at this juncture. How experienced are you on horseback?
