Purple Among The Trees

*Having finally recovered and cleaned and oiled his arms and armor, Alistair walks among those still working in Rimwood carefully watching for any signs of those who had done him and his current home harm. He moves with a renewed purpose and is not seen partaking of the wine he had grown so fond of as of late. His silver and purple armor gleams in any sunlight that penetrated the tree cover and his deep purple cloak flows behind him as he walks. He offers no aid while observing, but will lend a hand if asked. When he does help, it is obvious that manual labor is not anything he is used to and most simply stop asking for his help after seeing how badly he does at it.*

*When he once more comes across his old friend, Rene, he would speak softly, but not in a way as to hide his words or appear to be keeping secrets.*

"Have you found out who is responsible for this attack yet? I need to know who they are and who their enemies are. I want them crushed and lifeless before the next season for this."

Celovar would wave the man over with a smile if he heard his words. Should the man come over he offers him some ale and opens a conversation with him.

*Alistair looks over at the elf, then back to Rene before moving over. He holds up a hand and shakes his head slightly at the offered ale.*

"I appreciate the offer, sir. But I think the time for drink has passed me for now. Was there something I could do for you?"

*His tone is very polite and almost noble, but he is fairly curt and the anger is quite easy to see in his eyes.*

"Your loss. Your clothing suggests your either a noble or someone I am very interested in talking to. Are you a dragon?"

*Looks the elf over appraisingly before giving a slight nod.*

"If you ask of the Purple Dragon Knights, I was once among their numbers. I am now...retired."

*He taps the black lines and accents that have been added to his armor.*

"What is it you wish to speak of? I am a bit...preoccupied...with finding certain people at the moment and have little time...or patience...for idle talk."

"Right to business then, right this way."

// I would prefer to do the next portion in game if you are available any time within the next few days.

Rene would stand by Alistair.

"From what I have heard it was the Zhentarim, though I can not say I saw it with my own eyes."

As Celovar approaches he would offer him a polite nod and let the two speak.

((I'll be a bit busy this weekend with some home repairs. But I can probably take a breather from those whenever you think you will be on to chat. Just lemme know a time and I'll try and make it. I'm in Central US timezone, so shouldn't be too tough to find a compatible time ))
