:P  Nuh uh!<br/><br/>You're not getting out of this that easily, Blinkin!<br/><br/>Come on, guys, let's do this.<br/><br/><br/><em>   Anni, the daughter of Count Roogan ,was the fairest maid in all the land.  As her seventeenth birthday approached, suitors came from far and wide to court her.  Minstrels sang under her roof day and night.  <strong>A band of swords women was hired to guard her</strong>, for Roogan feared for his daughter’s purity and didn't even trust his own guardsmen...  <br/><br/>   Before the girls Roogan hired arrived, a minstrels song was cut off, leaving a gurgle, then nothing.  A band of ogres smashed into Roogan's estates and carried the hapless maiden off into the swamps.  <br/></em><br/><br/>The next day, a few hours still away from Count Roogan's estate, and not knowing of the tragedy that had beffalen the girl who was to be their charge, Aileeana Kennelwise road atop a spirited grey mare with white socks and a star on her nose.  Long, lustrous raven black tresses rippled in the wind.  She wore a snug blue tunic, and pants a little darker blue, helaed black boots, a silver blet and silver bangles.  She carried a targe slug across her back and wore a moon's hand mace on her belt.<br/><br/>Eyes like moonstones regarded her new-found sheildsisters.  Aileeana wondered what they were like, and what they thought of her.<br/><br/>"So, if we're to guard the count's daughter together," she spoke up, "I'd like to know a little bit about you all.  I'm Aileeana Kennelwise.  This is my magnificent hound, Thadius Tate."<br/><br/>Recognizing his name, the spirited hound trotting along next to her horse gave a cheerful bark.<br/><br/>"This is my first mission independent form the Church of Selune.  I hope you don't think i'm too young for this.  I've served the church as both a Templar and a priest.  I've been grated spells of the second circle, and my bracelets are a talisman blessed by moonfire."<br/><br/><em>Introduce yourselves, everyone!</em>
