A halfling lady lays in a bed, a bunch of flowers from her husband, and a thick odd looking purple potion, which she drinks hourly, underneath the blankets there is a horrific sword wound, going right through her body, and had to be burnt shut, causing horrifc burns on the skin around it, yet thanks o her specially made potion she doesn't make and complaints about the wound, she just stays there, on the bed reading a book about herboligy wishing someone would visit her.

(( This makes it easier for me than logging into the game, where people would think I'm walking around.))

Rith walks to see her as he enters the door way he walks very slow and knocks on the door. and says ''Hello anyone here'' he walks towards the bed and sees the lady drinking a weird looking potion. ''Ahh you must be Rosa. I am Rith. I see you got stabbed well take this it has brought me much luck with wounds.'' Rith reachs under his armour and rips a necklass off and gives it to Rosa. ''It has a ruby I got from a cleric healer where I come from. He says it will heal wounds fast and better. I hope it helps you. Also heres a potions.'' Rith hands Rosa a orange potion.'' I too get lots of stab wounds. This potion always helps take the ban away. I got something for your burns. here it is the oil from a demon it is said to heal burns.'' Hands her a little bottle with salve in it. ''Do you know anything about the person who did this to you? Because I would like to catch him. Only low lifes stab women.

Bumbol knocks quietly on the door to The Smallburrow's home and slowly opens the door. He sees Rosa lieing in bed reading a book and walks over. He smiles at her and they talk for a short while about life. Bumbol waits till she is asleep again before he leaves the home, off to gather supplies.

Viola Thistle · Post by **Viola Thistle** » Sat Jul 12, 2003 3:00 am

Viola Thistle enters the beautiful Smallburrow home early in the morning. She carries with her a variety of buckets, cleaning clothes, small bottles of essential oils, gardening tools, and a new book for Rosa.

"Good morning Rosa," she speaks quietly as not to disturb anyone who is sleeping late. She sets the book, The Comedy of the Gods, on the bedside table.

Knowing there is nothing worse than watching the clutter and dust take over while you're stuck in bed, Viola begins dusting, mopping and other mundane household chores.

When little Olivia awakens, she feeds the lass and takes her outside while she tends the garden. Rosa can hear the baby's coo's and laughter through the open window.

After putting the child down for a nap, Viola checks in on Rosa again. "Up for a bit of company?"

Crosis · Post by **Crosis** » Sat Jul 12, 2003 4:10 am

Crosis attends a field of cabbage away from his home. He carefully walks thru the field, stopping to pick up the readied cabbage. After Crosis is satisfied with the amount he gathered, he follows a dirt path home. He opens the front door, and finds his way to the pantry. He empties out his cabbage filled bag into a wooden basket. Then he scurries off to the bedroom where Rosa rests. When he finds Viola in the room, he quickly greets her.

Hello Viola. I see you've been keeping Rosa company.

Rosa Underhill · Post by **Rosa Underhill** » Sat Jul 12, 2003 1:52 pm

Rosa smiles at Viola, " Thank you, Viola, with out you I'd probally go crazy," she says and looks at Crosis and smiles " I'd go crazy with out you too dear" she smiles a little and turns back to Viola " Olivia likes you, which is a good thing, I don't think I'll be walking around much for a while yet, the blade was magical, and no normal potions can help me, and the one I've made will take a while to heal me, but alas, it's the only one which will work." She looks over at Olivia's crib and smiles a little again, and then whispers to Viola " What has surprised me, is that no one has asked me who done this, not that I'm complaining about this, because I'm sure the person who done this wont be caught." she sighs and lays her head on the pillow, and continues to talk to Viola.

"Rosa," Viola's face became even more concerned with the news that the sword was magical. "I had assumed this was a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. You don't think you were targeted do you?"

"And by all means, tell us who has done this to you." She purses her lips, "Perhaps, with the cursed sword you may be able to make your potion stronger or more precise." Viola sat in the chair, purposely keeping her hands neatly folded in her lap, in order not to wring them nervously.

Viola looked sideways to Crosis, "Perhaps it is time to gather the other hobbits?"

Hermie · Post by **Hermie** » Sat Jul 12, 2003 2:49 pm

Hermie returns home from a long voyage and goes to visit Rosa.

"Hello Rosa, I haven't seen you in so long!"

Smiling and greeting everyone he sits on a chair boring everyone in the room with tales of his voyage and the time he lost his shoe lace before falling fast asleep, exhausted.

Rosa Underhill · Post by **Rosa Underhill** » Sat Jul 12, 2003 6:27 pm

"Viola dear, it is impossible for magic to be precise, the blade was made to only be magical for a short time, enough to do the damage, then leave no trace of the magic, after a while, it just becomes a plain old sword again, it's the perfect weapon for an assasin, because normal magical blades can be traced back to the mage who made it, but with the likes of this it becomes untraceable, the drow treated me as a slave, but they taught me many things, but in doing that, their attempt at stoping me from telling their hunters from catching me didn't work, thankfully." She tells Viola, and sighs.

Brendan Mason · Post by **Brendan Mason** » Sat Jul 12, 2003 8:04 pm

Brendan arrives at the doorstep of the Smallburrow residence and raps once quietly on the door...he is left waiting only a moment until Viola answers the door. Expecting to have seen Crosis, but instead being greeted by the woman he thought dead he glides past her, with a bemused look on his face.

Pulling a chair in from the kitchen, he twirls it so it lands next to Hermie's. He smiles warmly at Rosa, places a single red flower on her bedside table and sits quietly.

Bumbol Woodstock · Post by **Bumbol Woodstock** » Sat Jul 12, 2003 10:03 pm

Bumbol returns to the Smallburrow's house the next day. His bag is full of green and white cloth. He sees Viola cleaning around the house and gives her a smile. He sees Brendan sitting in a chair besides Rosa's bed and Crosis is also there. Bumbol nods to both hobbits and smiles at Rosa, sits on a rocking chair and begins to make green capes out of the cloth.
"How are you feeling to day Rosa?" he asks and waits patiently for the answer.

Rosa Underhill · Post by **Rosa Underhill** » Sun Jul 13, 2003 12:26 am

" I've felt better Bumbol." She tells him and smiles at Brendan " A rose, oh Brendan, you know how much I like roses." she smiles and lays her head back down.

Brendan Mason · Post by **Brendan Mason** » Sun Jul 13, 2003 1:21 am

Leaving Rosa's side, he makes his way for town, to walk...and think. He has made a decision and writes a note...three words...

Rosa, ask Crosis...

Rosa Underhill · Post by **Rosa Underhill** » Sun Jul 13, 2003 11:17 pm

Rosa looks at the card, and then to Brendan as he leaves the door, and then to Crosis with an odd look on her face before turning back to Viola, and chatting again.

Crosis · Post by **Crosis** » Mon Jul 14, 2003 9:45 pm

Crosis leaves for town with a bag full of cabbage slung over his shoulder.

Later that night, he returns to home, his eyes red, as if he had been crying. Viola was still at Rosa's side. "Viola, will you come here for a moment?" he says pokeing his head in the room. Viola follows him into the kitchen. "Brendan...he..." Crosis looks down. "He killed himself..."

Viola Thistle · Post by **Viola Thistle** » Mon Jul 14, 2003 9:58 pm

Viola contines chatting with Rosa throughout the afternoon while keeping an eye on little Olivia cooing happily on a blanket on the floor.

Rising to Crosis' call, she retreat's the kitchen. Stunned by his words, she stands wide-eyed. A large lumped formed in her throat, preventing her from speaking for a few moments.

Breathing shallowly, "W-why? Er..uh," she swallowed hard, trying to dislodge the lump. "Who found him?"

She looked at Crosis, shaking her head back and forth, unbelievingly.

Crosis · Post by **Crosis** » Mon Jul 14, 2003 10:21 pm

"He said he wanted to talk to me. So he brought me to the roof of the library..." Crosis says quietly, "he started speaking of how he hated himself...then...he jumped..." Crosis wipes tears from his cheek.

"I don't know how I'm going to tell Rosa. They were best friends..."

Viola Thistle · Post by **Viola Thistle** » Mon Jul 14, 2003 10:30 pm

Viola stood stupified. The lump, the size and weight of a small boulder, settled in her stomach.

"Oh, Crosis," she whispered and imagined the terror of seeing Brendan fall. She drew him into a hug and glanced apprehensively to the doorway leading to Rosa's room.

"T'would be better to tell her soon, Crosis." Her voice barely a whisper.

Ganidor · Post by **Ganidor** » Mon Jul 14, 2003 10:41 pm

Ganidor returns from his hunt, carrying bags filled with gold and stuff.
He knocks on the door: <Knock knock knock!>

After a while Vivi opens the door and says in a sad voice "welcome back"...
I said "Hello Vivi, why are you looking so sad?"...

And she explained about Brendan... <tears fell>

-"W-w-why?" I said...
-"I-I-I dont know" she said...

Ganidor bursts into tears..

Viola and Gani lean on each other crying in the kitchen.

Crosis · Post by **Crosis** » Wed Jul 16, 2003 3:41 am

Crosis enters the bedroom where Rosa lay. He sits next to her. "Rosa...I need to tell you something." he looks down, "Brendan's dead. He killed himself..."

Rosa Underhill · Post by **Rosa Underhill** » Wed Jul 16, 2003 3:56 pm

Rosa looks at Crosis and blinks.... "D....d....dead?? Bu...bu....but why?" A tear falls from her eye and she lays her head back down on her pillow, taking a deep breath she says " I ...I think, I ne....e...ed some time al..alone..."

Mandil Aglandol · Post by **Mandil Aglandol** » Wed Jul 23, 2003 1:14 am

Mandil walks up to the house and knocks on the door....When Crosis answers he tells Mandil about Brendan

...hahaha no my friend, i saw Brendan just today, he is alive, and he told me that the Wyvern that had possesed him has escaped and somhow been able to take his form or so it seems *shrugs* if you want, the next time i see him i will tell him he should visit you and Rosa.... hopfully Rosa will get better soon and be out in the open again soon, may sirani bless you and her and help her to get well.

Mandil leaves quietly so as to not disturb Rosa's rest
