Message-ID: <1993Oct18.154234.1@vax1.umkc.edu> From: dvaughn@vax1.umkc.edu Date: 18 Oct 93 15:42:34 CST Ryn follows the others as they head towards the edge of town. Every now and again there is a quiet jingle, as if of armor, but it is so seldom heard it may be discarded as imagination. The young swordswoman settles her cloak over her shoulders, the slit flowing over the sword on her shoulder with the ease of long practice. She glances warily about as the group walks on, catching sight of a familiar face. A woman with strawberry blond hair, somewhat older than Ryn and somewhat shorter. She looks somewhat out of lace in her sailor's garb, this far from the docks. The elder woman gives Ryn a curious look out of her golden eyes and signals a question. Ryn quickly signs an answer, keeping eye on the others. The woman smiles, blows Ryn a kiss, and moves away into the crowd. The dark-haired swordslady chases after Aylyra's group, catching up in time to hear John's offer. She opens her mouth to offer her own services, then closes it; looking as if someone (unseen) has severely chastened her.
