 Reaching Grock's home was almost a fairy tale. It reminded her of her own home, Calm, cosy and full of love. \\
-Grock introduced Ravi to his brother, Shuckl. Younger brother, A tad less tonned and not as well kept beared. Shuckl told them how he just finished work and was going to hit the bath house causing Ravi 's ears to perk up. She hadnt had a proper bath in some months. \\ Ravi was then introduced to Grock's wife Toraz and while they chatted a bit Grock pulled his brother aside and gave him a bit of info about the situation with Ravi. \\

 //"Aye so can I count on ya? Just watch out for her, she is normally more than a capable warrior but I dunno, Somethings got her down, Real down. I wanna try leviate this trouble"// \\
 Shuckl banged his fist to his chest //"Aye you can count on me brother. I have herd the mates at the forge swap stories of the blazing hair shifter with bird in tow. It will be an honour to have me own stories to share. She is a tight friend to us here in Dheggrim."// Remington was left at the house not eager to take him for a public bath. Toraz giving him plenty of care.\\

 Inside most of the lady dwarves were walking around mostly naked. It caught her off guard at first but quickly adapting and pushing the embarrassment down. \\
 She undressed at the counter inside the showering area, feeling a bit silly. The Dwarf behind the counter didn't seem to even flinch as if she had seen it all before. Ravi asked for her clothes to be cleaned as well as her gear, The Dwarf nodded and took them without a word. \\
-Ravi turned around constantly catching herself trying to cover up. //No, Be strong, don't show shame//. She sighted a stall and made a beeline for it. not looking anywhere else and not realising she was walking rather fast. Flung open the door to find it already occupied. \\

 The lady Dwarf with blonde hair and fair skin turned to Ravi with a raise eyebrow. //"So? you looking to join me? I'm sorry lass but I am not into furries, You'll have to shower alone tonight."// Using her thumb to gesture to the stall next door. \\
 Ravi froze for a bit before nodding rapidly . //"ah uh..yes sorry, my apologies ah geeze sorry"// before closing the stall with more force than necessary. She quickly scurried over the the next stall and pretty much dove inside locking the door behind her.

 //"If its so simple why don't you send one of your other underlings?"// Ravi spoke with a bit of sass. \\
 Narkul straightened up //"I have and none have returned. You are possibly my most capable who is also somewhat expendable."//

 The Feat seemed impossible for her. a task much more situate to a sneakier individual. So Ravi went about owing a favor to NAME.
-Before Handing the sword to Narkul Ravi made a bold request. She wanted to see [[character:ironhide|Sindri]]. Just him and her, Alone so she may try and talk with him or what ever is left.
+With the blade wrapped up ready to hand over Ravi entered the tent, Passing the guards and stood before //Narkul//. The tent was well lit by candles and lightly furnished with carpet, a desk and chair. As he spoke there seemed to be something different in his tone. Excitement? //"It has been so long since I have been able to wield my blade. You have proven farm more loyal and valuable then I thought possible by such a lower being."// \\
+The blade outstretched but just before he could grab it Remi squawked and Ravi pulled it back. "//Wait, Before I reunite you two I want something in return for this."// \\
+Thier eyes meet for a long pause before Narkul bellows a hearty laughter. //"The sword lives to its name, Not ever given without giving something in return. And here I was thinking you had finally learned your place yet your stubbornly strong will prevails. even going so bold as to deny me what is rightfully mine!"// Narkul steps forward, imposing his presence over Ravi. //"Then speak! at least let me hear what request has made you so rash."//
+Ravi stood unflinching, Remi perched on her shoulder fluffed up ready to strike, Fire in their eyes. //"I wanna see [[character:ironhide|Sindri]]."// \\
+Narkul was silent, The Gnome had never crossed Ravi's lips in all her time here. Why now? it was perplexing and caught him off Guard. Rather than answering directly Narkul side stepped. //" Remember you swore your service in exchange for the safety and freedom of your comrades. I have overlooked your defiance all these months as you are a wild beast yet to be tamed. However. It seems there maybe you never intended to serve me as so you claimed?."// \\
+Ravi spat at the ground. //"To hell with the fellowship! I see now it was a mistake to offer my life for theirs. They can rot for all I care! nary a pep I have herd from any of them."// Her ears lowered it was obvious it hurt saying that out loud, As if she was finally accepting it.
+Narkul smiled a wicked smile. //"See there beast, you cannot rely on friends or loyalty. Only fear and absolute control can ensure a stable relationship. I ruled this land for years yet they all turned on me when I became something more than I was. you yourself have surely experienced defiance and hatred for simply being who you are?"//
+Ravi stood their silently, Stroking Remi for comfort, not meeting Narkul's gaze. She was silent for a few minuets before simply handing the sword to Narkul. //"I would like to see //Sindri// just me Remi and him, alone for 30 mins."//
+====Chapter 8: Beholde! Escape! ====
+Cries from outside the tent. //"They have gotten loose! Beholders have gotten loose!"// \\
+Narkul growled. //"You said you had them restrained and asleep?!"//
-====Chapter 8: Beholde!====
+A cheeky smile crossed Ravi's face. //"yea I did. But I can't stop them dreaming up new ones. its the risk you take when dealing with beings who can warp reality."// Ravi saw as Narkul realized this was her plan all along as blind rage overtook his face readying a spell. //Power Word Kill// a flash of Green as Narkul uttered a word that hurt the ears to hear. Yet after senses came back Ravi was left unharmed. \\
+//"Howw?!"// Narkul growled. \\
+Ravi stood up straight and armed herself. //"what do you think I have been doing on those long hunting trips everyday!?// Ravi hunched over as she growled and roared, her body swelling and changing as she unleashed her Lycanthropy, Transforming into a wearwolf form then taking a massive swing at Narkul who vanished in a puff of mist. She turned and cleaved the two guards as they came to attack. one strike and it flayed their bodies falling to the ground in a splat of blood. twitching and writhing.
-Ravi was put back on general duties, starting to get the ear and the eye more personally, it had been several months and Ravi was still wondering when the fellowship was going to rescue her. \\
+Loud horns sounded. not the cults. those were Dwarven horns.
-"you want me to what?!" Delta shouted as her next task was to rangle some beholders, Delta tried to explain just how dangerous beholders were which was met with the same simple reply as before. so instead she requested some extra muscle, Dragons were one thing but beholders could warp reality and Delta might be able to slay one, but capture and contain would be a different story. she requested 2 months to devise a plan for capture and containment of the beholders.
-It just so happens one of the Beholder's lairs contained a fair amount of Luna dust.
+Exiting the tent it was chaos. Just as Ravi thought there were two beholder's floating about fighting the cult members. a disintegration ray flu over her head as she ducked instinctively. she scanned the area. dusk was setting in but the land was still somewhat visible. she saw a group of about 15 dwarven soldiers reading the camp and striking at the cult. Ravi ran over to one she reconised, Shuckl. \\
+He met Ravi a bit caught off guard seeing a wearwolf bound towords him on all fours. But he would reconise that blazing red hair and bird anywhere. meeting with a quick hug. //"Eyeyee long time lass. you certinally grown up in a few months. Grock did seay you had flease."//
-It happened when Narkul was gone, A raid by her Dwarven friends, Cut down a portion of Narkul's cult and freed Ravi as well as cutting the collar off her. But Ravi wasn't free just yet. The favour for retrieving //Backtalker// was called in and Ravi had to journey to //Promise// To fufil a Bragain with //Blacklist//
