Jenkins" Organization: The Birdsong Company, PO Box 2031, Sunnyvale CA 94087-2031 Lines: 38 Aven-ryx yawns and slips her feet to the floor quietly. "Orteal, please forgive me If I have insulted you. You see, I am weary, and I have need of meditation. Perhaps, you would be interested in this?" Aven-Ryx opens the small pouch at her side and pulls out a stone about 2" in diameter with a ring of crystal around it. It begins to pulsate when Orteal touches it. "That is a mage sphere, you can cast spells into it, to be released later. But be careful, if it breaks, something very bad will happen to the user." "Excuse me, while I must retire to my room." She walks up the stairs of the Inn, and on the way up, she looks out the window to the alley beside the inn. Suddenly she feels a surge of pain and sorrow from one of the inhabitants in the alley. She opens the window and leans outside to get a closer look at the man. She sees the man cluching himself in the fetal position and blood on his clothing and the ground. She realizes that this person is in need for some help. Aven-Ryx launches herself towards the opposite building and grabs the wall with all four clawed paws. She carefully climbs down the wooden building and approaches the stranger. "Hey, sir, are you ok? Looks like you need a doctor. Let me help you." She crouches down next to him, not touching him, but awaiting some response. -- "Gina M. Jenkins" ... Speaks for [him|her]self and does not represent The Birdsong Company
