Spell crafting

The last two days have been most eventful. Marquie returned, which is always a very happy occurence. She's more confident and powerful than ever before and I told her that soon wehn she's advanced in amgecraft highly enough I'll show her how to create her own tower.

After that Ali shopwed up and she was in a remarkably good mood. We all palyed catch up and chatted until Ali had to go and make a commnet about me getting a bath. Naturally this led to Marquie dumping a lot of water over me. I chased her off and then Ali tripped so I turned the ground under her into mud, both as a way to get her back and to save her from injury.

After that we treked to R's church to get baths, and R had me bring in the water for Ali even though I'd called first bath. We all ended up just hopping in the tub mostly clothede to get our bodies and clothes clean. It was really fun and R and Ali got along great. Ali's going to help R decorate her church now so thats good.

While I was bathing I heard from Kirna. I wanted R or Ali to come along but they said no so I had to answer her summons alone. I found that she had a younger version of Lexi tied up and unconsious, but she was nice enough to release her to me, or so I thought...

When she woke up she was an utter bitch. She's the Lexi of long long ago when she first abandonmed Kirna and Animus. She hates me but Ali calmed her down a bit. We got into a fight over soemthing though and I begged Ali to just let me kill her and be done with it. We finally literally fought and I ended up choking her into unconsiousness. No one ever made me that mad before but I guess the way she talked about abandoning her children just hit me too hard.

Anyhow I put her to bed in the tower and I woke up to go check on her to find that Athena was around. Athena kept us from killing eachother long enough to discover where the Lexi belonged, or more importantly when. However young Lexi took something of mine before she was banished so I might have to follow her. That should be interesting.

After that I traveled with Marquie to Rosa's lair so they could meet for the first time since Mar had been back. Rosa was unusually secretive and strict and I found out later it was because a draconic meeting was going on between some metallics and chromatics and she didnt want me involved.

She told me not to move from the spot before she was uckily called off on an errand. Marquie however fell asleep and I had to put her to bed. When I realized I'd disobeyed her a little bit I decided I';d go all the way so I headed to where the council was going on and joined it on the side of the chromatics after shifting forms.

Naturally they tried to make a sneak attack happen, but they didnt count on me being there. I took two out of the sky and beat a third with a great deal of difgficulty, having to use a spell combination I call the human bullet after falling out of dragon form.

Finally the battle was won and I returned to Rosa's cave to collect Mar and head home. I spent the rest of the night talking with Ali and Mar. Poor Ali misses her husband so much and I wish there was sokmething I could do. I hope my company at least helps in some way.
