The Silver Buckle is under investigation for the disappearance of an extremely valuable slave. The Slave was tracked to the Buckle where he seemed to disappear. Authorities spent two days tearing apart the Silver Buckle looking for the Slave and found only the a blood trail leading to the Clinic. Authorities say their is not enough evidence to charge anyone in the disappearance but they have their suspicions.

After the authorities leave, Elohanna begins to clean up the mess she has caused, without magic this time, quiet and thoughtful reflecting on what has happened and what could have been done differently, and what still needs to be done to make things right. Even the comfort of her friends does not seem to ease her mind and the anger and disappointment from Father Xander cuts deeply.

As Katelyn helps Elohanna scrub the clinic floor and then wipe down the cots and all other surfaces, she muses:

"I wonder just what made that poor slave so valuable? He looked pretty ordinary... I wonder if it was something he knew, like the location of a shipwreck with a valuable cargo, or maybe buried treasure? If it was something that Captain had no right to, maybe we could have squared things with the authorities. Oh well, the fellow is long gone now, and I can't say that I'm sorry."

Andrew, Paddy and Edward get to work repairing any damage while Michael takes over as host. Robb, who is in town and was present for the kerfluffle, is asked if he could help as well, either as security with Jetta or...does he know how to fix this door hinge?

If guests ask once the tavern is re-opened, Andrew will tell the story of the poor desperate man who came looking for medical assistance, and the slave owner who used the despicable legality of slavery to try and remove that badly injured man, fresh out of surgery, from his recovery bed in the clinic; and how desperate the slave must have been to have taken off while still recovering from such wounds. That is his story, and he sticks to it.

*Melody, after unsuccessfully trying to cheer MS Elly up (With such wonderful help from Jetta {Sarcastic thought}) She wanders about picking up bottles, sweeping up broken glass, and cleaning up the supply room, she ponders the loss of being behind bars for at least a night for the experience, then shrugs it off due to MS Elly's comments on that matter. A life was saved ... a life was freed, all in all it was a good night ... except for the mess of course. The local guards were not the most tidy of folk. Bet their mothers never taught them about being neat and tidy. She nods her head 3 times at that thought. She wished she understood why MS Elly was upset, they did some real good tonite. It was exciting! If they didn't heal the man enough and that ugly captain took the sailor away to continue being a slave on the ship, MS Elly would have been even more so upset. I wish I could do something that would cheer her up, she thought to herself. Then she freezes as a thought pops into her head, then sings a song to poof herself and heads out the door.*

Robb pitches in to help with repairing the damage done to the Inn by the guard's two-day "inspection" and with security during the construction/repair phase. Mostly, though, he uses his skill in metal-working to repair the many metal items broken by the guard's zeal in their search for any trace of the missing slave.

*Sister Bernice arrives at the inn with several leather and brass trunks, a thinly veiled scowl on her lips, while assessing the damage*

"Pardon me, I am seeking the proprietor, Mr. Reid, or his wife, Ms. Elohanna Reid. Direct me to their location. Also, I'll have a tea. Hot. Don't add anything, I shall do it myself, but bring lemon and sugar on the side."

Heloise immediately stops wiping tables and sees Sister Bernice to the comfortable crushed red velvet chair by the fire, instructs Michael to take the Sister's bags to...to...Andrew and Elly's room for now, let them figure out where they're going to put her - and sends Clarisse running to find her mother or Andrew, whomever she sees first. The petite brown-haired woman then scurries to the kitchen to get the Sister's favorite tea, setting lemon in one separate dish and sugar in another and finds a pair of tweezers for measuring sugar grains, and adds some fresh shortbread cookies for good measure before taking the tray to Sister Bernice with her most charming smile.

*Not recognizing the woman whom Heloise seems to hold in high enough regard to go through such trouble serving tea to, Jetta stops her on her way to deliver the tea-service and asks who the woman is that she should get such special treatment.*

**Passing thru the Hold on during his usuall trips on the Sagewald kingdom, the knight clad on gold and silver simply smirks and shakes his head *

My my, Why i am not surprised ?

**Without more step he goes into the guard hall before visiting the Buckle himself*

Eghaas walks into the Silver Buckle and orders a meal. *he mutters a few things before heading inside to find out more...

RollinsCat · « **Reply #11 on:** February 25, 2012, 09:30:48 pm »

In a whisper. "Miss Jetta, that's Sister Bernice - she helped a friend of theirs, a muddy little halfer, Emwonk. She's a respected member of the Aeridinite Church and I know Miss Elly would want her comforts seen to. Please, please be nice. She's...particular about propriety."

Nehetsrev · « **Reply #12 on:** February 25, 2012, 11:00:03 pm »

*Jetta replies*

"Thank you Heloise. I'll be sure to mind my P's and Q's while in the presence of the esteemed Sister Bernice."

*Jetta gives Sister Bernice another looking over from across the room, and then heads off on her security rounds. She gives Eghaas her thorough once over as well when he enters the inn and orders a meal. Her eyes show her to be alert, but the rest of her countenance is cool and aloof.*

After a private conversation with Father Xander, Elohanna finally immerges to help Michael behind the bar when she notices their newest guest and an old friend she moves to speak with.

*Melody suddenly materializes next to Heloise and Jetta and is in the process of taking off her wet coat, she obviously just came in from outside.* Hi! *She says rather abruptly trying to elicit a scare out of Jetta and Heloise. She looks about and seeing the guest, whispers,* Propriety? *With his nose in the air and a snobbish tone she says in the pose of an actor,* My dear boy, of the High Society Type or the High Ranking Religious Type?" *Then she giggles.*

"What? Now? Muse - I just sent the letter - go find your mother please, tell her we're...stars and song, tell her we're going to be in Tori's room on a futon, we'll have to give Sister Bernice our bedroom since Father Xander's in the downstairs guest room. I'll be upstairs changing sheets and hiding incriminating evidence.

"What? No, I'm kidding of course...just find your mother, please!"

RollinsCat · « **Reply #16 on:** February 26, 2012, 05:14:14 pm »

Heloise jumps and gives Melody an admonishing look. "You're lucky I didn't have that tray in my hand, Melody! And she's High Ranking Religious...but to hear Andy tell it, she's earned it. So we put on our Important Customer faces, right? For her and Father Xander both. Miss Elly's counting on us."

A small elven girl, with blues eyes resembling those of her mothers, and bright red hair much like her fathers, does as requested running to find her mother, when she finally finds her downstairs in the clinic doing an inventory for what needs to still be stocked for patients and taking notes.

"Mother! Mother" her excited voice and angelic smile that causes her mother to wrap her arms around her.

"Yes Sweetheart, What is it?"

"She's here! Sister Bernice is here!"

Her mothers expression changes as she starts to untie her apron. "Thank you sweetheart! Where is she?"

"She just arrived, Mother."

"Please tell her I will be right there." She smiles and watches as her daughter runs off again to find where the sister may be now.

*After Melody arrives so abruptly, Jetta looks down at her with a wicked grin and comments to Heloise about Melody's wet state.*

"Look, Heloise, her coat is soaked and she's dripping ghastly amounts of water all over your freshly cleaned floor. Shouldn't you be chasing her back out the door with your mop or something?"

*At that, with a wink to Melody, Jetta spins on her heal and heads off to get some personal errands done.*

Jilseponie Wyndon · « **Reply #19 on:** February 26, 2012, 08:31:48 pm »

*Melody asks MS Heloise the whereabouts of the Boss or MS Elly is at, as she has some news and apologizes about the wet floor and cleaning it up after she delivers her message, her coat sprays wet droplets all over as she shakes her coat, tries wiping off the wet splatter on Heloises clothing with her wet jacket, realizes her mistake, makes an oops face, and steps out of reach of any hand reaching out to grab her by the ears.* Sorrysorrysorry!
