The Nexus

[Charity Dinner] "I still can't believe you put that Phoenix painting up. I thought you loved it." It certainly stood in Reinholdt's mind as one of her better pieces of furniture. Perhaps that's why Reinholdt has purchased a hundred tickets for it, as well as a hundred more for the enchan...

[Face Time] "He's certainly fond of mentioning he has a dragon as a reason to support his claims of power." Ilpholin shrugs lightly. "But I don't find it particularly likely the dragon's left the King in Rag's swamp domain to hang around the urban environment the spear is in. Some dr...

[Face Time] Ilpholin slowly blinks as Wenomir quickly deflects away from the question that Cessie asked only for her to swiftly back him up. If they didn't want to know, they shouldn't have brought it up. "Uh-huh... but no, I'm not asking you to do my work for me. I can't dismiss the possibili...

[Fortress Bay] A bit of algae catches Leah's cheek and she hisses in pain and disgust. The catgirl wipes it off in a hurry, destroying it in the process somehow, though it leaves a bit of a welt where it once stood. "Oh that's it ," Leah's eyes flash dangerously. "Why don't you make ...

[Around the World in Eighty Posts] "We can learn." Reinholdt says before his lips press against hers. Gently for a while, letting her get used to the warm, soft sensation. When it breaks he looks at her for a moment, sensing her excitedness and leaning into it, his lips continuing along h...

[Face Time] Ilpholin nods lightly towards Wenomir. There was a real chance to strike a telling blow against the King in Rags. Cessie wants more assurances though and the nymph stares at her conservative counterpart for a moment. "Indolent. Complacent. Complicit." Ilpholin never breaks eye...

[Fortress Bay] "Hmph! Frogs can't be nobles!" The catgirl protests to the handsome drifter. The frog prince was a disgusting faker, gold digger, conman, and master of sexual harassment. Clearly. No princess would stoop to kissing one! "You left this place vacant for at least a hundre...

[Fortress Bay] "It can talk?!" Leah exclaims openly. It being the frog. She doesn't understand the barking dog at all. She does understand Lenny though and it's hard not to sense the jealous animosity. Leah frowns a little, not caring most of all for Lenny speaking for her and deciding wh...

[Fortress Bay] Seems like Leah's on the right track. At the very least mitigating some of the damage, even if she's still not sure about the source. That she's becoming a problem for the storm and its frogs is only confirmed with a giant aggressive one shows up out of a puddle. Leah, not expecting ...

[Face Time] Right. Ilpholin had almost forgotten that Wenomir has something against mortals who became powerful. She would enjoy the irony, but instead continues on without pause. "The first is on a very strict need to know basis. The second is the betrayal of someone close to him." "...

[Face Time] Ilpholin continues then. "There are three things necessary to defeat the King in Rags. I possess two of them. The third is a spear, said to be Jarowit's spear. Lost and passed down through the ages. I have tracked it to the current owner, what I believe to be a false heir to Jarowi...

[Fortress Bay] Oh! The breeze feels nice. And calls attention to the lack of wind. It's not something Leah would normally notice. The kind of thing you don't realize is missing until you find it. But she does suppose it's exceptionally unusual that there was no wind beside the ocean. Aren't beaches...

[Face Time] As she shows up on the screen, Ilpholin's expression stays neutral and dignified, betraying no deeper opinion of the situation or the people. "Wenomir. Cessie." The Phyrexian Nymph inclines her head ever so slightly in a formal greeting. "I'm sure by now you've become acq...

[Fortress Bay] Ugh. A rancid frog. Leah appears to be on the right track. But the question remains as to whether this was a cause, or an effect. She's guessing the latter, but it could even be a bit of both. She takes a closer look at the shrine in hopes to get a hint as to its exact purpose, at le...

[Face Time] It's a pleasant morning. The sun is shining and clouds are light and it's just perfect weather. Surely only made all the better when VIGIL gets a call through its official channels. Whatever they have in terms of getting in touch. It's Ilpholin! And she would be delighted if they could ...

[Fortress Bay] Ohhhh noooo. Adventurers. The last one of those she met was Matilda and she was just the worst . The definition of a murder hobo trying to cause a cataclysm. Leah wrinkles her nose. One could mistake it for her repulsion at the smell though. Much more interesting are these shrines ac...

"It just creates more loose ends, not less. Trust me." But then Atya probably knows that to some extent by now if it's what she does. Reinholdt knew those portals were bad news. And Atya's lack of an exit plan at least makes more sense now than 'I didn't have one'. That doesn't make it mu...

[Fortress Bay] Leah looks over towards the lava tubes. Well... it's a start. And it'll be out of the rain at least. "I see. Thank you. If I could recommend waiting one more day before going out to sea. I don't intend to take long." The longer this goes on, the more aggravated and annoyed ...

Reinholdt takes another drink, but isn't really keeping up with Atya in terms of volume, or Mogzoku in terms of drunkenness. He does smirk at her though, very interested in finding out just how good she is with knots. The smirk becomes quizzical and Rein's eyebrows raise. "What would even be th...

[Fortress Bay] "Do I look like I have a sword?" Leah asks. Not only does she not look like she has a sword, but she also definitely does not have a sword for all factual purposes. The man still has a point admittedly. Rachel and Sarah would have a much better chance at handling weather re...

"Oh man, I hadn't considered the UNO reverse card. It's a legitimate threat." Reinholdt ponders deeply the implications of being pinned down and tied up. "Well I can safely say there are no bonds I haven't escaped from. I dare so, nothing could possibly tie me down for long." Th...

[Fortress Bay] "Excuse me, good sir and madam," Leah says after gingerly navigating the steep set of wet stairs. Even on the best of days that path seems exceptionally hazardous. It was certainly uncomfortable traversing. Probably not as bad as traversing the ocean in this weather though....

Reinholdt grins shamelessly at Daisy. "Jute rope, gag, and bear trap. Pin until totally helpless. Got it. Might have to practice later though. Those creatures are dangerous, like you said. Wouldn't want to go in unprepared." He takes a drink of his rum, continuing to grin like an absolute ...

Reinholdt gives Atya a smile to reassure her, saying no more on the matter of self-depreciation. "Well I can certainly consider hunting one down. Hmm... but..." Reinholdt appears to lose himself in thought for a moment before looking at Atya's eyes. "I don't know how to catch one. You...

[Fortress Bay] Let it never be said that Leah doesn't get out of the house. Lest she hear you and scratch you for it. To be fair, the modestly dressed catgirl was called to this place. Not in the traditional sense of receiving a summons for help. Not even in the usual supernatural sense in which sh...

"I stole Magtok's cloning technology and I'm a clone of a clone of the real Reinholdt." Reinholdt doesn't consider himself real. Huh. That surely isn't guiding reckless and hedonistic behavior in any way. "Shutting down iii in general seems like a good idea. At least, make it too exp...

Reinholdt looks at Mogzoku with concern. With all the flair the little guy had, he had thought Mog could handle a drink. Now it looks like he might border on alcohol poisoning if he takes another sip. "Oh, were we supposed to be doing this anonymously?" Reinholdt's famous in the Nexus and ...

Reinholdt's attempts at pouting break quickly to reveal the facade. "Alright alright. Good enough. I suppose ." Knocking back a swig of that rum certainly doesn't hurt. Atya better be prepared to tip her entire mansion away though! "What's a kupo nut? Some sort of delicacy from where ...

[Around the World in Eighty Posts] "I think it was worth it, just to see the way you smiled." Reinholdt gives a genuine smile of his own to Sylvia. For a while afterwards, he just lingers and waits though. Letting her sketch to her heart's content. As she works, his thoughts wander. Event...

Reinholdt tilts his head a little considering Mogzoku's culture and maybe averting his eyes a little. "Huh. Well, I guess dress for the job you want has a slightly different meaning there." Reinholdt sort of dresses for his job. Adventurer has a strange and varied dress code though. "...
