Omen Valley

Lady Guyana needs an Omen

[11:21] ŐℜİA (0Subira Resident) turned around, "Greetings Mistress!" she smiled seeing the woman
[11:21] nadi (Nara Zsun): looks up hearing the heavy paws on the ground.....and sees the Mistress...... Greetings Mistress
[11:21] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): tal Guyana
[11:22] ŐℜİA (0Subira Resident) whispers: "Master may I go tend to Mistress' kaiila?"
[11:22] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): yes, tend the animal, and don't get bitten
[11:23] ŐℜİA (0Subira Resident) walked up, "So happy I see you Mistress, may Is ee to your kaiila, can tie it up in a good spot?"
[11:23] Guyana sighed, mostly from trying to keep her kaiila from nipping at everything. “Tal Haruspex, kajirae..." “I'd rather spare your girls to be honest....Dalrea's been in a terrible mood since the wagons turned this way.” she explained. "Pehaps you can point me to a good spot to tie her for now, Oria."
[11:25] ŐℜİA (0Subira Resident) smiled, "Yes Mistress," she said then turned towards the post, "Over here would be good Mistress or on the end of the sitting platform
[11:25] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): There is enough grass behind the free women's wagon to nourish the kaiila
[11:28] Guyana follows Oria, tugging on the binds to keep the kaiila going forward. "No..." she hissed as the beast snarled at Oria. "You remember Oria, my beauty. No...snapping." Tying the kaiila took some time but it was not a task unfamiiliar to Guyana. After ensuring Dalrea had proper water to sustain her from the pond, Guyana turned back to Oria. "Alright then. Is the haruspex available, Oria?" she questions as she started to unpack something off the kaiila.
[11:29] ŐℜİA (0Subira Resident) moved back some to give the animal room to move around, "I believe so Mistress, he is just enjoying some paga.....Your kaiila is very pretty Mistress," she said while observing it. I hope your journey was very safe Mistress. it can be dangerous traveling between both camps. I usually take a blow gun with me," she said then pressed her lips together as she was very talkative.
[11:29] ŐℜİA (0Subira Resident): *believe
[11:31] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) watches the 2 women handle the kaiila, he knows such beasts are dangerous, but someone grown in the wagons is capable of managing the animal. He indeed worries about Oria who is a barbarian and therefor less skilled.
[11:32] Elric Wilberg is offline.
[11:34] Guyana ; chuckled listening to Oria...the girl had not changed. “I came with my father, but he seems keen on minding the wagon for now. I normally take a bow with me during travels though as you are right – the plains are dangerous.” she said before walking towards the man and other kajira with her sack in tow. “Might I join you, haruspex?” she questioned.
[11:35] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): yes, you may join us
[11:35] nadi (Nara Zsun): quickly pulls her knees together so as not to offend the Mistress
[11:35] ŐℜİA (0Subira Resident) smiled after listening to her then moved back up the stairs as the night started to set in. She jumped up the last step after seeing a very large cricket or unknown insect scurry past her other foot.
[11:37] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): yes, Lady Guyana, you can join us, on the dais.
[11:38] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): Oria bring the Lady some refreshments if she needs one, she might have traveled long
[11:38] nadi (Nara Zsun): Would the Mistress like a damp warm towel to refresh her hands and face after a long travel
[11:39] nadi (Nara Zsun): perhaps oria could bring her a refreshment with the Master's permission
[11:39] ŐℜİA (0Subira Resident) smiled wide, "Yes Master...I shall and know Mistress must be very parched," she said while standing...."Umm, Mistress what beverage or food would you like to eat tonight?" she said kneeling back down
[11:40] Guyana nods to Nadi's inqury. "Aye a towel and some water please, Oria." she asked of each girl. "I rather not soil what I brought with my hands. I did bring food, at least something for the haruspex to read as well as provisions."
[11:41] ŐℜİA (0Subira Resident) nods, "Yes Mistress," she said and hurried to do as requested.
[11:41] nadi (Nara Zsun): Yes Mistress rises quickly and heads into the wagon
[11:43] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) hears her talk about about something to read for the haruspex, which triggers him to ask what the goal of her trip is "dear Lady Guyana, you traveled long to visit us, you have a special purpose to do such"?"
[11:44] 0Subira Resident washed her hands throughly and then grabbed a very cool bottle of water from the Haruspex's stash.
[11:45] nadi (Nara Zsun): taking a wooden bowl from the shelf moves on prancing toes to the hearth. Pours some water from the kettle into the bowl....and sets it down.... Reaching up takes down a vial of sweet verminum oil and pours several drops into the water. Swishs it around , picks up a clean rep cloth and moves back to the Mistress's hems.
[11:47] nadi (Nara Zsun): falls softly to the fur.......holding the bowl carefully extends her hands offering it to the Mistress.....and lays the rep cloth at her lap. " I hope the Mistress finds this perfumed water pleasant
[11:48] ŐℜİA (0Subira Resident) waits behind nadi with cool glass water bottle in hand," she listens as her friend serves first.
[11:50] Guyana nods at the question, uncovering a large platter of sliced meats, the center of which was a pot of verr livers. She sets the platter down just as Nadi returns with the rep cloths. “I wished to ask if you could read a few curiously formed livers for me...see if they might lead to some knowledge of my companion or better still of my future within the camp.” she explained. The rep cloth and scented water were accepted and used to quickly dampen and cleanse her hands and face. “Oh, this is a fine perfume, girl. Good choice.”
[11:51] nadi (Nara Zsun): smiles my Pleasure Mistress
[11:51] nadi (Nara Zsun): moves back to the Master's boot so oria may serve
[11:53] ŐℜİA (0Subira Resident) slides forward holding the medium sized glass bottle and with it a small cup for it to be poured into. "Mistress I present some fresh drinking water," she said low enough to be heard but not interrupt the serious work of the Haruspex.
[11:55] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) looks at the pot which should contain livers "hmm, it's unusual not to read fresh livers, but if these organs are strangely formed, I might see something in them". Kutai prefers fresh livers for his connection with the Open Sky goes through living beings of Gor, but maybe the livers have such a strong omen, he still can work with them.
[11:59] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): "your companioned, what happened to him, is he missing or so, and under which circumstances did that happen" even a haruspex needs background of the question he has to give an omen about, since omens are often foggy and he needs information to make a right conclusion
[12:01] Guyana dries her hand before accepting the glass of water from Oria with an appreciative nod. “Oh, they are fresh ones. I carved them from verrs I brought with me during the travel here. Father is keeping the rest of the meat for our dinner and an offering later, but the births of these verr in particular was...curious. For one thing the mother was not known to be with young until just before she was due...and the eve of their birthing, the camp's kaiila were very unsettled.” she explained. “As for my companion, John often traveled for long amounts of time but always told me of his destination. The last I saw of him, he had vanished for two hands...claiming to have returned from a trip. Then the next day, he was gone again. That was two months ago..”
[12:03] ŐℜİA (0Subira Resident) smiled as the beverage was received and then moved to the side to hear the reading as it was an amazing thing to witness.
[12:04] nadi (Nara Zsun): looked at the mistress with concerned eyes, then gazed quickly back to the Haruspex hearing his words and her explanation
[12:05] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) opens the pot and lays the livers at a plate and studies them. He can see they are still fresh with blood, not entirely warm, but not al life was out of it "so was long gone, then short back and since then disappeared without a word" he summarizes her words, to make sure he understands all
[12:08] Guyana sighs and adds. “Aye I was with children at the time...expecting twins. He was eager for children and wished to be there for their birthing,” One look at Guyana however and one would never guess she had been pregnant. “I fear the skies are angered somehow. He never returned however and I did not bear live children in the end. I fear I have been abandoned and cursed somehow, haruspex.”
[12:09] nadi (Nara Zsun): gasps covering her lips with her hands....a look of sympathy crossing her face
[12:11] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) studies livers more deep, he sees 2 dark spots on one liver and another at the second, he goes into meditation to get a connection with the spirits of this world and with the Open Sky to get some interpretation of the strange spots on teh livers from the verr
[12:15] Guyana observed the haruspex at work. She knew the verr were special but given the night they were born was also the last she saw of John, she hoped Kutai might see something important in the strange livers. She didn't know there were spots or odd shapes, and thus clasped her hands together nervously as he started to meditate.
[12:16] ŐℜİA (0Subira Resident) felt the urge to hug the Mistress while listening to her tale and hugged her legs for a moment then hurriedly moved back into to tower.
[12:20] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) opens his eyes after a long meditation, he had let the women wait, but now he has some insight in the situation. He starts speaking in which he concentrate on the free women, the others are unimportant for they are only slaves. "the first issue is the situation, if you are cursed or something like that. That you don't have to worry about. Of course the Open Sky can curse someone, but never a woman, for what ever a woman does, does not matter to him. See it like a free woman being mouthy to her companion, a good man would shrug his shoulders, maybe cuff her,and then forget. The fact that you became pregnant shows you are not barren at all. I more think the shock of your companion disappearing caused the miscarriage"
[12:27] Guyana frowned at the man's words once he seemed to come out of his trance. “Aye...that is what the healer said. She believed that since it was my first pregnancy...things were more delicate and sensitive to me. John is far in age, Haruspex...as is his kaiila. He is not so frail that he cannot keep an army at bay, but I fear I have lost everything but my ability to cook and sing.”
[12:29] nadi (Nara Zsun): sits quietly and lowers her eyes hearing the Mistress's words
[12:29] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) continues his oration "the 2 spots at one liver are you and John, your companion. Belonging together" he hesitates a moment then speaks on "the spot on the other means something else what matters for him, he gets distracted by that. What it is, I don't know, but it's strong enough to keep hi away from you, and important enough to hide from other". He then reacts at the last remarks of Lady Guyana, your fear is natural, for you are missing him, and think, thats your fault. But I doubt a Gorean man disappears because of a woman, he is above such, like the Open Sky is also. No it must be something else.
[12:33] nadi (Nara Zsun): Master May I be excused to check on the Bosk that are nervously braying and stomping the ground?
[12:34] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): yes, Nadi, you may
[12:34] Guyana shook her head quickly. “No, not at all! I do not think he left because of me. The twins were stillborn well after he left...he does not know there are no children waiting for him if he should return. I fear that something has lead him astray or worse, led him to his end.” she explained. “I barely sleep. Father is the one that told me to come find you to at least put my heart at some sort of ease.”
[12:34] nadi (Nara Zsun): I wish you a safe journey home Mistress and the return of your companion un harmed
[12:34] ŐℜİA (0Subira Resident) shoulders lifted and lowered as she recalled the Master that was being spoken of since it had been so long since he was around. She too began to wonder of his safety. "lease take care gorgeous nadi"
[12:34] Guyana smiled to the to the departing kajira.
[12:35] nadi (Nara Zsun): I wish you well haruspex serve with fire oria
[12:35] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): "well, sicne we now know, it's not your fault, you heart should be more at rest now, however, i am not a magician, and can not lift all worries from your shoulders, since after all, John is still missing"
[12:40] Guyana nods slowly. At least he did not see anything about John being dead. It was good news to some degree. "It is a great deal of help just knowing I am not cursed by the skies. You have my thanks, haruspex. Please, enjoy the sliced meats on the platter at your leisure. They are some of my specialties - smoked bosk, verr in a kalana wine marinade; spiced tarsk," she listed off a few of the meats. "Sausages and pickled vegetables."
[12:41] ŐℜİA (0Subira Resident) listened closely to the story and then her attention was turned once the food was spoke about. It sounded really delicious and her mouth watered.
[12:42] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov): "i thank you Lady Guyana, I will eat them with taste for your cooking has a great reputation" he orders Oria to bring the food in he cold store of his wagon, for he does not to spoil it
[12:43] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) stands up "dear Lady, i have to go now, for i have some appointments"
[12:44] Guyana nods before rising as well. "Enjoy them. I'll return to Father's wagon...I do not trust him with a whole beast to cook." she admitted nervously.
[12:44] Kutai (Kutaituchik Kroitschov) smiles at her words about his father
