Arwen.

[He mutters her name quietly in hopes of taming both his disappointment and relief.]

She is gone. There were no other quests for her to have joined. Nothing that would require her time nor presence.

[Silence grips him now as he thinks about the rare moment they spent before she just suddenly vanished. ]

For those who knew her, I'm certain she's well.

Many would raise their blade for the sake revenge, but I have very little need for vengeance.

[He says this with no hint of arrogance in his tone.]

I seek something more.

[Video]

[marked_for_death]

And just what might it be that you seek?

[Video]

[thelastking]

[He takes a moment to think.] Atonement, the future, peace?

All three are just as important as the next.

[Video]

[marked_for_death]

[The answer impressed her, although given what she had been learning about him, the gunner shouldn't have been surprised either. That much showed on her face as she glanced away from the screen with amusement.]

True peace can never be found, if that's the type that you're searching for.

[Video]

[thelastking]

Only a fool would seek something that unattainable.

[A smirk appears.]

Yet all fools were once dreamers, weren't they?

[Video]

[marked_for_death]

[The smirk was welcomed, to say the least. She rather enjoyed their conversations, even if part of the reason for this particular one was to distract him, even momentarily, from the disappearance of his loved one.]

So are you a dreamer, Aragorn? Or were, as the case may be.

[Video]

[thelastking]

By my own definition I would be a fool.

[Video]

[marked_for_death]

Not a man who's afraid to admit to it. [See, that's what she likes about you.]

I suppose that would make most of us fools then, aye?

[Video]

[thelastking]

[She won a smirk from him.] That it does, but what else would you rather be?

[He's teasing her.]

[Video]

[marked_for_death]

I'm afraid that I can be nothing but that fool, and I would never find myself straying from such a path.

[The smile on her face could be taken in a number of ways. Maybe she's teasing, or perhaps there's something more behind her words. Elza spoke nothing of it though and simply tilted her head back with interest.]

You'll have to show me your skills sometime.

[Video]

[thelastking]

[His smirk widens. How odd. Elza reminds him too much of himself at times.]

You wish to spar?

[Video]

[marked_for_death]

I need to keep my skills in check. Besides, it isn't as though you can beat me.

[She's not being arrogant, more teasing. She's never actually fought with a sword in her life. Small daggers, but her pride was with her guns.]

Care to test your skills, Aragorn?

[Video]

[thelastking]

Such confidence.

[A light chuckle is heard.]

It would be my honor, Elza.

[Video]

[marked_for_death]

[She didn't say yanything in regards to his first comment, but simply smiled pleasantly at the screen.]

Then I will come and seek you one day soon when I'm bored.

[ooc: would you be interested in a log at all? ]

[Video]

[thelastking]

Don't keep me waiting.

[He teasingly warns.]


[ ooc: Actually sure! Want me to set it up or you? lol I do have a few other fight logs to do. )

Re: [Video]

[marked_for_death]

[The teasing had her huffing lightly in return. She would keep him waiting just long enough for she arrived on her own schedule, and not a moment sooner.]

Untill then.

[ooc: Sounds good to me! :D If he wants a sword fight, then he'll have to bring a spare. Elza only fights with pistols ;D ]
