Dragon Hunting
The sun was bright and the air was crisp with the hint of the cold that was to come with winter. It was the perfect day for hunting and it was exactly what Svalin had planned to do. She walked easily beside the others and was eager to find prey.

She had been awake with the dawn and had been anxious to go. Nine months of sitting around and doing little were past her and it was time to get back out there. The days since Solver's birth had been spent getting back in shape when she wasn't spending time with her family. Hours in the practice yard with anyone who would spar with her and miles of running. She was a bit determined to get back into top shape as quickly as possible.

A bow was in her hand and Vigfrior at her side. She would have loved to bring Tryggvi, but horses and her brother didn't get along well so they walked. Svalin didn't mind. It would only help her get back in top shape.

	Svalin smiled at her wife and eagerly took their son. She dropped a kiss on a chubby cheek. "Well met Vernique and Solver. It ist good to be home." Though she was a bit disappointed they hadn't found a dragon. "It ist complicated. Halbjorn is vexed the dark elves ran off and we didst not pursue." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Kael walked up to the small, though admittingly fetching woman. He gave a proper bow.

"Greetings, Lady. I am Kael, son of Queen Alflyse, Prince of Svartalfheim. On behalf of her majesty, I apologize for the actions of my treacherous kinsmen. The Lady Svalin and her company came across me as I was beset by traitors to our realm. They aided me and saw to my return home. My mother wishes to see the traitors brought to heel, thus I am here to ask Lord Thor for permission to hunt them down."

"Ah. I can see how that'd get to Hal, hon. But I'm glad you didn't give chase if it wasn't the best plan."

And now, Tall Dark-Elf and Handsome explains himself. Since Svalin's holding their son now, she curtseys a little. "Very nice to meet you, Prince Kael. I'm Vernique Denning, Lady Svalin's wife, and this is our son, Solver. I'm very sorry to hear you have a treason problem, and I hope it goes well."

	Vernique is the best wife ever for her sister. "Aye. Tis a shame that we couldst nott take care of the lot when we met thee. But they wilst get caught eventually," Aridis says with confidence. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kael looked a little..perplexed. Then again, he wasn't too well-up on his Aesir culture. Her name and manner were also a little..odd. "Yes, well, thank you, Lady Vernique, Hopefully it'll be settled quickly." He sees Solver. "Is this the babe that has the gods acting like schoolchildren?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2011-10-16 10:31 pm UTC (link)
	"Aye," Svalin said proudly. What mother wouldn't be proud of a son who had the gods trembling? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah. He's the cutest little gamechanger ever!" Vernique chimes in, cooing a little at the baby. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She hovered - she'd been doing that a lot lately. She didn't want to tred on anyone's nerves, lest they decide that she was to young, to inexpieranced to persue the dark elves but she hovered close enough that she could see the baby, smiling when she did. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kael maintains a respectful distance, but takes a closer look at Solver and smiles. "He is a fair child." He fights the urge to ask how the pregnancy was accomplished. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2011-10-16 11:08 pm UTC (link)
	"Yep." She looked to Svalin. "Is Hal going to be okay, hon?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2011-10-16 11:50 pm UTC (link)
	"Aye, but mayhap I shouldst go talk to him." She kissed Solver one more time. "I love both of thee," she said and handed her son to her wife. "I wilt return anon." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2011-10-16 11:51 pm UTC (link)
	She takes the baby back with a slight 'wumph'. He's so heavy. "Love you too, hon. See you soon." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2011-10-17 12:41 am UTC (link)
	Svalin nodded and went to find her brother and talk to her father about granting an audience for Kael. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She hesitated before stepping over to vernique. "He is well, I think..frustrated..never a good thing in a warrior.." she reached out with her finger, smiling at the strong grip when he grasped it. "The little lord is getting so big..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Halbjorn has stopped pacing, and is just taking the time to re-sharpen all of his weapons before washing up. At the sound of approach he glances up. "Time to go to see father?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2011-10-17 01:48 am UTC (link)
	"Anon," she said. "I came to check on thee. I wast worried." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2011-10-17 01:55 am UTC (link)
	"Bah, there ist naught to worry about. The Dark Elves merely fled before there wast sport to't. Such cowardice ist for mortals and Greeks. It ill becomest a warrior." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2011-10-17 02:06 am UTC (link)
	Svalin nodded. "Aye. Dark elves art not known for honor and courage. Recent events art most strange," she admitted. "But we must learn to adapt and think in new ways when situation demands it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Thou speakest true. Still, I wouldst prefer to think better of mine enemy." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2011-10-17 02:14 am UTC (link)
	"Aye as would I, but we cannot always choose our enemies. We must fight all threats whether they be honorable and courageous or cowardly and craven." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2011-10-17 02:20 am UTC (link)
	"Aye, and they canst be sure they wilt be found." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2011-10-17 02:27 am UTC (link)
	Svalin smiled. "Aye they wilt be found. We shall find them together and deal with them." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2011-10-17 02:32 am UTC (link)
	"Aye. And in the meanwhile, how fare dare we trust the dark elf amongst us? They hath been enemies so long, and in such number." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2011-10-17 02:39 am UTC (link)
	Svalin shrugged. "I doth not know. They art a race of deceivers and dishonorable people and long enemies of Asgard. Trust ist not easily placed, but time wilt tell if we art to trust this one or not." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2011-10-17 02:47 am UTC (link)
	He nods. "Ver' well, so long as thou'rt watching, it shalt be so. And at the very least, mayhap he wilt lead us to the others, or they wilt come for him again." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
