Ariellyn
Ariellyn stayed back a moment before moving on. Not an auspiocious start for a new group. Perhaps they are not the ones to be traveling with. SHe had made some appraisials = of the various members of their group. She now had to adjust them Grush ws not longer at the bottom of her list.
Ariellyn then move silently back into the camp and stayyed off to the side out of the way. listening and learning more about the others as she did.

The return of the hunting party
As the hunting party returned from there hunt carring a boar Selaro was pleased for them that they had been sucessful as she was sure that they would only kill the marked boar. However, as they got closer she noticed that there was no mark on this boar and she quickly turned to anger and she was enraged more by the fact that all the other parties had no marked boar and resolved not to speak to them except Ariellyn, who must of at least tried to spair it's life, and she greated her solumly as so many innocent animals had been killed.

Prepared Feast
Before the boars are prepared the master of the hunt stand up. Holding a magic wand he speaks to the crowd The hunt has been a huge success. But only one of you has captured the Tickwood Boar. This year the identity of the boar was concealed so those who did not return with a boar because they were not convinced they had found the prize may have actually overlooked the very prize they were seeking. Many of you, however, were wise and have brought back a boar even in the midst of your obvious defeat you may have won. The wand flicks through the air and each boar glows momentarily. Finally, one boar bears a glowing mark along the side of the carcass I give you .. the Tickwood Boar! the hunt master exclaims. The prize has gone to Aldern Foxglove! Many people boo and some applaud politely. Others discuss how the hunt must have been "bought out" by Aldern's money. Nonetheless the prize is given out. Aldern gives each of the participants in the hunt a share of the prize.
After enjoying a feast of boar, the carriage is loaded. The heroes of Sandpoint will once again return to their home. Once on board the coach Aldern hands a small package to Selaro and smiles sheepishly. For you m'dear. May it cheer you up after that horrible hunt

A Grand Feast
Although Selaro did not relish the idea of a hunt for sport she happily eats the with the rest of the group as not to waist the meat, but also because she had not had boar before and was eager to taste it, she was not disappointed with it's succulent taste or it's aroma as it was spit-roasted over the fire.
After the meal she climbed back into the caravan to make towards Sandpoint and was surprised as Aldern greeted her as m'dear' and gave her a small package. She was quite flustered by this gesture as she hadn't been given anything by a man, apart from her farther or by the population of Sandpoint - but that she had deserved, and it must of been obvious that she was flustered even though, as per norm, she tried to hide that fact.
"Thank you Aldern."
she says graciously to him unwrapping the parcel.

The Parcel
Inside the Parcel is a beautiful pearl necklace. The finest the Ocean has to offer. I wish it could be more Aldern says as Selaro reveals the prize inside the package. Go ahead and put it on

The Neckless
"Thank you Aldern, it's beautiful, but I don't think I can accept it."
Selaro says handing back the necklace
"It's been good of you to take us on the hunt with you but I now I wish to get back to Sandpoint where I can engage in something more constructive."

Ding that means i level
the feast was lovely for Grush and lovely was the perfect way to describe it the boar was cooked to absouloute perfection and the grease dribbled from grush's lips. This sort of meal almost brought a tear to his eye it reminded him of the feasts of old where he and his tribe would sit to celebrate a new season or agelong tradition.
Afterwards he wondered what adventures he wwould go on next or he might join up on sandpoint militia he may even be a captain after his previous raid repelling skills and his natural skiill with a blade and beast-like ferocity.

Ariellyn
Before the feast
As Ariellyn rejoins the rest Selaro grets her solemnly. I didn't want to kill but I was given no choice. I had gone up a tree to see if it was the marked boar. I told the others with me what I was doing and that I would let them know if it was. I hadn't even found a good place to view it when Welbry fired and hit the boar. Of course the boar charge him. I had no choice but to shoot to kill it before it gored Welbry." Ariellyn told her story with disgust in her voice.
"When I confronted him later on the way back as to why he didn't wait for my signal, he said he hadn't heard anything. He shot before he even had a clear view." she finishes as she shakes her head.
The feast
During the feast Ariellyn will join Selaro but sits apart from the others. She will eat and drink sparingly but not boar--not on this day--being disheatened by the outcome of the hunt..

In response to Selaro
Aldern gets clearly upset by Selaro's remark. Keep it anyways .. sell it if you like. I don't care. It's just a token of appreciation for you joining us. Aldern continues to pout for most of the remainder of the trip. Far different from his normal talkative self .. He seems to look out the window staring off into nothingness for the majority of the journey home.
Arriving back in Sandpoint the local heroes have been given room and board at the Rusty Dragon for the evening. The bar is once again full of talk and tale as the heroes arrive from the hunt. The locals want to hear every detail.

More conversation.
"Thank you Aldern,"
Selaro says putting it on
"and as I said it's beautiful and I wont sell it, rather keep it as a token of a friendship."
OOC: Forgive any inconsistencies.
Turning to Ariellyn
"I know it wasn't your fault about the boar, and I'm sorry if it came across like I thought it was. Why didn't you have any of the boar, it has now gone to waist, I'm against unnecessary killing but if it happens it is best to not waist the carcass is it can be put to some purpose."

in the pub
I go over to a corner and start playing my lute to everyone in the pub.
after i play i go tell the locals about every detail.
Welbry hopes he didn't heart anyone's feeling by killing the boar emidietly away.
He goes out side and thinks about his family.

Taden
Taden takes his face from his book. He shot a quick glare toward the noble. He began to prepare a spell but decided against it. He knew that his time would come. Unappreciative Bastard!!!

Ariellyn
Ariellyn made sure to be last to leave Aldern's coach. As she did she turned back to him,
Many appreciated you invitation, many appreciated your hunt. But not all did and that is to be expected in life. Your behavior on the journey back was not one I would have expected from you in your position, however one can forgive much of that for you are young. I havenoticed in my life that thee young usually consider themselves and their own feelings as paramount. If you would win the heart of a woman you must put her feelings first and not your own. GOod day to you and thank you for the invitation."
Ariellyn makes her was into the inn joing Selaro wherever she sits. You made the right choice to accept it. He really wanted you to have it and proof of his prowese. The young are like that alwasys showing off. WHich is why he did not handle you initial refusal very well. I spook to him about it privately THE gods only know if he will learn anything from this."
"It seems the group has sort of broken up," Ariellyn observe as she scans the common room noticing all all the others in different places. Chance meet as we all were it was not likely to last," she thinks out loud to the young woman Selaro.
"I came here in hopes of finding another adventuring group to go out with. My last one, what was left of it left me at the healers and depaarte since with my broken arm I was little good as an archer."

In the Inn
As Selaro jumped off the carriage she turned around to see Ariellyn talking with Aldern but decided that it was none of her business and proceeded into the inn and sat at a corner table listening to Welbry play.
It was no surprise when Ariellyn sat down next to her and told her what she had talked to Aldern about, she had seen her reaction on the carriage and decided it would be prudent to thank her and leave the matter.
"Thank you Ariellyn but I think it best that we leave this behind us. Groups only stick together so long as it's profitable to them. You should know this from your old group and yes, I would gladly travel with you, I do not use the word adventure as adventure usually finds me."
and proceeds to discus the events of the day, at length, with Ariellyn if she wishes to before bidding her good night and going to her room in The White Deer inn.
