[RPG] [SEI][Taselak] Tales of Lek and Sennianus: Bridging the Gap

[Kel]

Roleplay from Lek

It had been a long day. After an early morning skirmish, and a few hours 
working around the camp, Lek had spent some time working out with her 
men. They were all recovering from injuries, however, so eventually she 
sent them back to camp, while she herself continued to train. Anything 
to keep from thinking. Finally, her exhausted muscles drove her to 
return to her tent to wash and rest—there was bound to be another 
skirmish before the day was over.

She was laying in her tent, unable to sleep, when the messenger arrived. 
At last. Lek was on her feet in an instant, all but snatching the 
missive from the poor boy. Leaving her acting Captain Dorian to tip him, 
she retreated to read the letter in private. Lek’s hands were trembling 
as she opened the note. She read through it rapidly, then, frowning, 
read it again.

Forgotten her? The pain stabbed through her. Of all the things she had 
thought El would write, this she had never expected. Dear gods, why had 
she fallen in love with a madman! Lek wasn’t sure if this was an 
improvement over the impostor or not. At least he had known who she was. 
She couldn’t even tell from the letter if he was planning on staying in 
Outer Tilog or not. Arkon’s Beard! Couldn’t Elrdred have been more 
precise? Lek needed a course of action—and this just told her to wait. 
She was sick of waiting.

Lek lay back on her pallet. She wanted to weep, but she had no tears 
left. She lay there, staring at the top of her tent, clutching the sword 
that was never far from her. At least El had told her he wanted it back. 
Well, if Sennianus wanted it, he was going to have to come and get it.
