Falcan was sitting on the bench outside [imagine a bench there XP] watching Balsa toss men that came at her, with her spear, the end of course the tip was covered and bound with cloth. She completely tossed anyone who came at her.
She laughed hair tied back and sleeves rolled up as sweat rolled down her face. “alright you kids C’mon get up!” she shouted and spun her weapon around and switched hands. “this woman frightens me…..” Falcan muttered with a small cough. “So have to spoke with anyone in the high counsel about his lordship yet?” she asked any of the higher up Blades members nearby that would know.
“Aye anyone checked on my elfling? He has been out there three days, refusing to come in he could be a statue.” she laughed and swung her weapon down hard with a thrust sent it out a few times then stabbed it in the air so quickly the count of stabs was almost uncountable. Falcan’s eye twitched as he sighed deeply looking down eyes closed. “headache…” he groaned. “what was that?!” Balsa barked. Falcan looked up. “what?” he blinked eyes wide as she walked towards him. “did you say something?” she asked Falcan gulped he did but it was true he wasn’t insulting her……he though didn’t know how to reply.. But suddenly he jerked but froze as she stroked his cheek. “sorry cant stay mad your all so to cute!” she giggled like a school girl and walked back over to train. Falcan fell over [anime style? Lol] a odd look on his face.

Aegnor had looked over at the window while reading a book when she started talking to Falcan, the serious look on his face automatically turned to laughing. he turned back to the books with martin who gave him an odd look. Aegnor explained to Martin who cracked a grin and chuckled warmly while he continued reading his book.
Alessandra walked outside her necklace in place and laughed out loud at the entire scene. she wound it down to a warm chuckle as she came to stand next to falcan. she wore a silly grin she decided to tease him.
"now now my dear stop trying to make me jealous." she said with a chuckle. as she sat next to him on the bench she was in a tunic and leggings. Aegnor had given her a tunic and one of the female blades gave her some pants. she was wearing she slippers..the only thing still in good condition she sent them to the bruma armorer with a blade messenger and a large purse of money to get it fixed. she leaned back and watched Balsa knock the the blades around she chuckled.

Falcan blinked dumbfounded “I-Didn’t…I” he looked away and huffed lightly regaining himself a little embarrassed. And sighed lightly. He looked up watching Balsa. “She is…strong…..thank the nine she is on our side….” he smirked….then shuddered lightly.
Balsa took a deep breath hen yelled running at a Blade’s Member who guarded then slashed at her she blocked then jumped back then lunged at him nailing him right in the gut, he groaned and fell with a painful thump. “hum…” she smiled then took the band out of her hair letting it fall around her shoulders it made her look a bit more feminine. She whipped her forehead and stretched.
“guess I should go check on--” she paused then let out a small gasp holding her side she groaned. “uh?” Falcan looked up as a blade walked over to help her she smirked and suddenly grabbed hold of his arm and with a yell threw him over her shoulder with a loud clang he landed on his back. And she huffed with a small smile. “I’m okay!” he laughed. “but need a brake” she said and tried not to show it but walked easily as she entered the area were the food was kept.
“well….that was….odd.” Falcan sighed lightly.

Outside the walls her escort or friend or whatever the heck he was to her sat a little ways away on a large rock in front of a fire he built,

Alessandra laughed at the woman not in an insult you could tell by her tone. she was amused at how she handled the rest of the blades. as there were various amounts of them groaning at some 'injury' she bested them with. most likely there pride but it will have its fall at last. better here then somewhere else Alessandra though. she found it cute how Falcan got when embarrassed.
her life will be entertaining, she folded her hands on her lap. enjoying the day and strange enough there was a couple of birds on the roof chirping.
~~~~ Inside Jaufree was running through what they had in stock with another member of the blades. they would have to send someone into town to get more supplies. they were running low on some things.
"hmm make sure you write down what we need. the shop owners know how much to send. and also don'[t forget we have..." he paused to count "Eight extra people to account for and all adults." he turned to the blade who was cooking at the moment.
"what is for dinner?"
"fresh bread and a nice thick hearty stew sir it is a chilly day. but after the rest of the blades what i have seen have been landing on there butts all day i doubt it." he said with a chuckle.
Jaufree chuckled Balsa was sure something... and she was oging to do

Falcan sighed lightly looking to his friend and then upward at the birds. And smiled reaching into his pocket he pulled out some dried bread, but only a small piece, and squeezed it in his hands braking it up then offered some to Alessandra. “want to feed them?” he smiled warmly. And tossed a few pieces with his free hand and watched the birds flutter down and peck at the bread crumbs.
--
Once inside Balsa sniffed the air. “something smells good.” she half boasted then smiled. “I cant ever cook anything above what needed to survive,” she laughed. Whipping her face with a rag. “So what is up Sir?” she looked to the grandmaster then looked to the almost empty shelves. “ah I see.” she nodded. “stock intake seems to be doubling.” she smirked.
“I’d go for you but my side seems to be bothering me at the moment.” she chuckled lightly rubbing her side then walked over getting a glass of water and gulped it down. Then paused and snapped her fingers. “who ever you send tell my guy out there to accompany them, he needs a little human interaction.” she smirked. “besides that he might be stronger then me.” she laughed then plopped down in a chair. And sipped her water.
Meanwhile.
It seemed the male Balsa spoke of was slowly being walked up upon. He slowly stood summoning a rod to his hand and turned around right as the red robed man approached him summoning his own weapon and armor.

Jaufree looked to balsa with a chuckle, he shook his head.
"yeah stock intake, we are running low on supplies and winter is around the corner. i figure it is better to be prepared than not you know?" he said and the person taking account of things muttered and nodded. and the cook just sighed he cut some warm bread for Balsa and put some stew in a bowl placing it on the table.
"here ya go ma'am." the blade said as he went back to rolling dough into bread shapes and placing them on wooden shovel like instrument ((name freaking escapes me)) and put the bread in the oven. as he then went to work on more bread dough.
~~~ Alessandra smiled and grabbed some bread and broke it up. She then tossed a piece to the birds who hopped over and started to pick at it. she looked at Falcan and smiled, "thank you." she said as she started to feed them some more. she did it for a few moments acting like someone who hasn't done such a thing before. she giggled at the birds' antics as they hopped from bread crumb to bread crumb.
she looked back at Falcan I've never done this before" she said with a slight tint of amazement.

Falcan blinked a few times watching her then chuckled and smiled watching as more birds joined them and pecked and fluttered about once or twice trying to chase each other away one crow puffed out his check and let out a somewhat angered ’CAW’ Falcan smirked and tossed some then looked back at her. “well figure they have to ear to.” he nodded. “I used to feed the birds with my dad as a child.” he nodded. “sometimes even some squirrels or deer would come up.” He added. “Maybe…ah…I mean..” he paused scratching the back of his neck a moment.
“I plain on moving back into the country someday…maybe once this crisis is over…..” he nodded. “maybe even my old place….and….plain on having a garden…some bird houses…and stuff like that.” he said looking a bit flustered afterward. “what…I guess trying to say…if I would be happy….if you ever wanted to…come visit….” he said a little pinkly and tossed some more bread crumbs.
---
Inside Balsa nodded and smiled. “Oh thank you very much!” she nodded to the cook. “amazing as always.” she took a bite and put her hand on her cheek a moment and smiled happily then looked back to the grandmaster. “I hear that, just let me know if you need anything.” she added. “though noticed you don’t seem to have a blacksmith anymore.” she added. “though I’m not so grate in smithery I can start looking around.” she shrugged.
---
At the same time. Balsa’s companion was having a few troubles with his rude house guests, not only was there no house, there was four Mythic Dawn agents, he had no real issues after all he was still alive, only with the lot them with there axes was harder to take care of, he twisted around and sliced one across the front finely causing them to fall. then his spear bounced off one’s blade as they swung at him, he ducked just barely enough and tripped him with his spear., then twisted around to the next stabbing him. Then turned towards the last readying to run away but as he did Rikugou threw his spear landing in the male’s shoulder.
---
And silence was broke by the people in the guard areas of the temple shouting. “MYTHIC DAWN!” As Rikugou threw the agent forward into the door practically, tied up in chain and nice spear shoved to the back of his neck. ….to think what a heart warming gift compared to a basket of fruit, bread or flowers.

Jaufree chuckled at Balsa as she dug into the stew he would eat when he finished inventory of other things.
"but yeah we lost our Blacksmith he got a terrible sickness last winter. he was very very good. its just he was a bosmer. the cold and him didn't agree with each other he worked he for years but one day the cold won. " Jaufree sighed and paused rubbing the bridge of his nose.
"he was your stereotypical Bosmer borderline insane. he could fix the armor like it was eating candy...which oddly enough he liked to do. Last winter he got pneumonia, bad. the best healers the chapel or mage's guild sent couldn't save him. " Jaufree and the other members looked sad at the loss. " he was oh whats that term..." jaufree thought for a moment. "fruitcake." the cooks aid with a chuckle. "yeah that was it." he said with a smile. "but if you want you can help us find a new blacksmith it would come in handy." the smile was wiped from his face when he herd the alarm "MYTHIC DAWN!"
~~~~ Aegnor and Martin were getting close to cracking the mysterium Xarxes when the alarm rang out. Aegnor stood up and ran towards the door looking back to martin. "stay here your majesty!"
~~~~ Alessandra smiled at Falcan she gave the bird's the last of her bred crumbs and was about to respond to Falcan when the alarm rang out. "MYTHIC DAWN!" her eyes widened why always at moments like these she grumbled to herself mentally.

Seemed everyone within the area jumped about two feet in the air…..Rikugou didn’t really understand the reason for alarm, maybe they thought more were nearby, surely they didn’t think he was one. But he stood there blade pointed towards the male’s neck.
Falcan bit his lip looking toward the door as if expecting it to be blown down or something, but noticed the archers were readying there bows but haven’t fired yet so it seemed something was moderately ‘okay’ he nodded to Alessandra and smiled lightly before standing and saw Aegnor rust outside and toward the same location, he also nodded to him joining as he walked towards the door.
----
Balsa had smiled as the grandmaster spoke, but when he kept talking about Bosmri’s nuttiness she just died laughing more so at the ‘fruit cake’ comment, she nearly choked and giggled and laughed up a storm. “Indeed.” she giggled. “but I am sorry to hear about your Smith.” she tried to say remorsefully but couldn’t stop giggling, but was sure the others understood. But then stopped dead when the alarm was sounded she jumped up barely avoiding spilling her glass and reached for her weapon as she nodded and headed towards the door.

Aegnor made it too about halfway down the stairs when he saw the man that came with Balsa have one captured. well that was convenient if he though so himself. he walked the rest of the way down the archers had the arrows trained on the mythic dawn member.
"don't worry" he spoke to balsa's friend. " there arrows are set on him or she...well ya know" he waved a hand. Aegnor neared the mythic dawn member he grabbed at the rope that was tossed down catching it. "lets tie it up shall we?" Aegnor suggested with a raised eyebrow. ~~~ Alessandra walked over to the stairs when she herd Aegnor speak, so they were already dealt with that was quick and she was glad she honestly didn't want to get dirty anymore...well again at the moment. she liked being clean, as it stands she was lending Falcan her Falchion while he was blade needed to be repaired.
she honestly wondered what could cause them to act so boldly this was a fortress. something was fishy...

Falcan paused halfway down the stairs and blinked a little awed, that was…odd but whatever, okay it seemed like they could never capture one alive. He smiled razing a brow and sighed relaxing. “seems all is alright.” he shrugged looking back at her with a small smirk.
The male looked to Aegnor and nodded watching him he pulled his spear away as it vanished the spell seemed to wear off. The Mythic Dawn agent remained silent, an mix of annoyance and worry on his face. Heart pounding he wasn’t sure what to do….should he…cooperate? Or use ‘that spell’ …..[suicide]
For now though he allowed himself to be tied up. The male that brought them the gift turned away as if to head back out. But suddenly paused hearing a bush rattle, he summoned his spear once again.
--
“What is going on?” Balsa asked stepping outside and heading down the stairway, looking at Falcan then toward Aegnor and the male in the red robes. “hum.” her eyes narrowed then looked over towards Rikugou and chuckled. “well nice job boy.” she smiled. Then walked down to help Aegnor. But then paused looking back up.
Riku shook his head looking down as a few more red robed men bolted out of the bush in there summon armor. “ah!” Balsa gasped. “ambush!?” she gasped. “no there most likely here to kill the captured!” she shouted trying to yank the other man inside quickly. Riku blasted one with a air ball then swiped some away before jumping back about in the door way as they got closer he locked blades with one, and another man was killed by the archers overhead.

Alessandra nodded but then she saw the men jump out and herd balsa's proclamation she grabbed the robed guy and started to haul him up the stairs. while Aegnor and everyone else dealt with the morons who decided to attack the fortress.
~~~~
Aegnor leapt at one of them swinging his fist slamming into the masked face no problem cracking and smashing the armor. sending the agent to the ground. he didn't use any magic he checked the face almost as if he was looking for someone. and electrocuted one as he got too close to the doors.
~~~ Random agent number 67 realized what was going to happen to him, they were going to interrogate him. he couldn't let that happen. though he got the information he needed he saw the Heir coming outside at all the commotion. he looked at the woman who was dragging him up the stairs. such a shame to mare something so pretty.
"paradise awaits me..." he felt the liberating flames crawl up his body he was dead quickly.
~~~~ Alessandra looked down at the he man as he said "paradise awaits me" her eyes widened as eh noticed too late and dropped the man with a scream. the spell had crawled upon to her when he cast it because of her hold on the man. it burned she dropped to the ground herself. her scream echoed across the mountain.
~~~ the mythic dawn members realizing what had happened started to leave. Aegnor threw a spell empowered punch at the gut of one and faltered at the scream.

Falcan’s eyes suddenly widened it was if all flashed past him in a instant then twisted around running towards Alessandra. “no!” he gasped running toward her “Alessandra!” he shouted and hurriedly to put out any remaining flames and pulled her closely, fast as he could but not fast enough to hurt her he hoped. Carefully he tried to check her wounds.
Balsa quickly finished a few men. And Rikugou spun and sliced a deadly wound upon one. Then saw the last few escaping and threw his spear toward him, like the last time, this man fell too pinned to the ground by the spear, as that appeared to be the last of the men. Riku sighed spear vanishing he looked partly responsible….for this and started to walk away yet again. Balsa huffed whipping her brow then winced at the scream and also hurried up the stairs.

Aegnor turned around as the last man fell, and ran up the stairs to see Falcan put out the fire on the woman Alessandra. his eyes widened, he had that Salve it should work. he ran back inside as he asked martin "where is my bag?!" Martin turned and went o help him look.
inside Martin grabbed Aegnor's bag and tossed it at him. Aegnor pulled out the small tin with the salve he made in it in Chorrol. he was glad he forgot to deliver it to the Temple. he headed back outside to give the woman the salve. ~~~~
Alessandra gasped as she was pulled against Falcan, she groaned she hated fire. silly her she should have handed the man off when she had the chance. she looked up at Falcan as he checked her wounds. she breathed heavily he stopped a great deal amount of damage. she looked terrified and she flung herself at him while grabbing his face and giving him a kiss.
she then just clung to him shaking. she had some burns on her arms she could feel the crawling sensation of a burn.

Falcan’s eyes widened suddenly being tackled almost his cheeks flushed as he pulled her closer kissing her back a moment before just holding her. “its alright.” he said looking to her burns and frown, it wasn’t ‘alright’ but better then it could have been. Though he also started wondering if any of the Men begin to wonder about her, though pushing that thought aside he stroked her hair and put a arm softly around her.
Then looked to Aegnor and nodded, but first picked her up and would take her to her bed inside. Least there she could rest.
Balsa sighed and frowned pitying the woman. “I’m sorry I didn’t think---” he trailed off yea that was about it she didn’t think….not much else to it. And Rikugou felt badly too as he ventured off.
