Welcome to Aurora Sky! We are a Sword and Sorcery roleplay. Check out the area above this box if you're interested in making a character, and check out the cbox below if you have any questions! Hope to RP with you soon!
Surrounding Repas is a vast area of farmlands each growing something different, with a main dirt road in the middle. Farm houses and barns are placed near the fields. Dozens of people are hard at work in the fields. People with animals pulling carts are going up and down the main road. Off of the main road there are several smaller roads leading in between the fields.
Noah is riding on top of Finnigan on the main road, he is holding up the sign with the "In need of a good home," facing outwards for people to see. V keeps forcing Noah to look around as they ride. Noah feels uncomfortable that so many eyes are looking at him. "V.. everyone is looking at me weird." V is humored by this, "You are weird. You are a child with a ghost for a shadow twin wielding tonfas the size of himself on top of a seven foot something possessed elk with twelve foot antlers and black smoke coming off him, holding a sign saying you need a home..."
Noah smiles slight thinking that in fact that does sound odd. "Is that why you keep making us look around V?" V seems focused as he says, "Golan left to the sheriffs office, maybe your picture was in it this time. While it is nice of her to have helped you, we still shouldn't trust her fully. She would abide by the law and turn you in possibly. We need to leave town. I know of someone who would help us." Noah says quickly in his head, "I trust Golan! She wouldn't turn us in! I want to at least give her idea a shot before we leave.. give me a day! If nothing then we can leave and we have to say goodbye if we decide to go. She is nice! V sighed internally, "Fine.. we shall try your idea. But we leave at the first sight of danger when I say so! Noah sighs... not like he has any choice in that regard.
Noah looks at Golan and smiles "Look V! It's Golan!" He waves over at her to get her attention as Finnigan walks towards her. V notices her distress "Something is wrong.... Something happened.. She is distressed" Finnigan picks up the pace without needing to be told. Noah gets up to Golan "Golan calm down. What is wrong? Are you okay!?'
V takes over Noah quickly and makes Finnigan get as close to the other horse as he can so that he can hear Golan easier. "Tell me everything quickly..." Many of V's alarms were going off in his head maybe she was followed. Golan clearly spent effort in getting to them if what she said is true, so she can be trusted... for now. V looked around for any signs of mysterious figures that were out of place that seemed to be a little too focused on them. "Noah keep quiet, and stay as much as my shadow is possible. If it is true what she is saying then they may know of me. But since I have never acted of my own accord during the time together in that... prison. They would not know the extent of my abilities in this form." Noah did as he was told, mimicking a normal shadow and being quiet.
V assumed the worst and thought, "They are after me..but.. maybe they could have just been here for the kid... but.. if it was only for the kid, it would not make any sense on why an orphan with absolutely no significant value to that terrible man would have people looking for him. So it must be because of him.... and if it was because of him then maybe they know more than he would like them to. Or maybe that evil man still thought his son was in the crystal... impossible. Noah told him the crystal did not have his son in here... he told him there was no one inside the crystal." (V's train of thought is not heard by Noah. Which is why it is not in Navy blue)

There didn't appear to be anyone following Golan. There were definitely people watching the group from the distance, but they were just the usual farm hands.
Repas was cattle country, but a giant elk was still more than a little unusual. Several of the animal handlers had been moseying on up to the group but apparently decided to wait once the lady on the horse came barrelling up.
Most of them, anyway. One of the youths back in the fields noted "Hey, that's Golan from the Cracked Flagon! That her kid?" The boy next to the first speaker punched him. "Golan doesn't have any kids!" The duo got harder to understand once the two boys start beating the crap out of each other over whether or not Golan's still single. The older farmhands laughed and started motioning for the others to get back to work. They themselves backed off a bit as well, seeing as Golan and the boy had taken to whisperin'.

V became visably mad and tried to hold back from cursing. Being he was in charge of the body right now, and out in public and in front of children he couldn't lose his cool. He took a big breath and looks at Golan. "Thank you for protecting the child, I am afraid I don't believe they are just after the child, these people want more. To our knowledge Noah has no other family other than his dad which never became a part of his life who for all we know is dead. You did not have to lie, but you did... If they come by again, tell them we came back and you delivered the message. Do NOT get yourself involved anymore than you have. My real name is not known by many so if these people know about me, there is nothing good that they want from me. I was not a saint when I was alive but I did what I had to.. to protect my village, my family, and my friends. The man, who took you in, we were good friends. I am glad he found a wonderful woman to take over the place he put so much heart into..... you know what if they do come back.. actually tell him this "geh havir latusa, geh havar bukan." .... just don't ask me what that means... I cannot translate that in front of a child. If these people really did their research then they will know that it means." V smirked at that last comment knowing fully it was not a curse word of any sort. If these people are the same people V thought they were then they would understand why he said it. Being a shadow Golan couldn't see but Noah's mouth dropped at all the information. He also began to shake, which Golan could see. (geh havir latusa, geh havar bukan= I will not obey, I am not yours.)
"Okay, maybe if you write that down. Do you have a pronunciation guide? Well. I guess that's that then. Guess I'll just mosey on back. I suppose you can hide on your own and keep safe without any further intervention. Not really any of my business what happens to you next, so ... yeah. Goodbye then."
V chuckles and takes some paper and a piece of charcoal out of the bags that are on either side of Finnigan, writes it down and hands it to her. " Unfortunately I do not have a guide to pronounce that. But I am sure if they know the language they will understand it.... I am curious though.. if they do know it, there are only a few outside our village that know it. Thank you again for all your help." V lets Noah take over to say goodbye. "Bye Golan! I hope we can visit you again soon! We are a really good friend now!" Noah waves at Golan smiling brightly as Finnigan begins to walk off. Noah says to V " So... we are off to Forvaros?" "No... at least.. not yet. It would be of poor decision to go alone. We will visit my friend first, she will help us." "Oh okay... so who is she? Do you know where she is at? She is not in Ballena right? We can't go back there. " You will see who she is when we get there. And no, she will not be in Ballena... not anymore. She has no reason to be there. Thankfully, if you know her very very well, she is... predictable. I have a good guess of the general location." Noah and V headed off eastwards from town.
