<strong>Reliyian Isilivanthar – The Matriarch</strong><br/><br/>It was more than obvious that Reliyian wanted to probe the matriarch much more on the subject. Her normally stolid face wrinkled at the corners of her mouth as she had to restrain herself from more. At that moment she shared a quick glance with Aeryn, sensing the doctor’s own enthusiasm intensified, not swayed, by Rhiss evasiveness. Reliyian decided it was best to admit her feelings and choose her words careful, “I am saddened. As you have no reason to trust me though, I understand. Know that my curiosity is only that I may help, not harm. As you are a great leader, prudent and sage, I will respect your wishes and ask of it no more.”<br/><br/>As Aeryn confirmed that they should settle their dispute in one month’s time, she produced her orb from its pouch. Resting it in the palm of one hand she waved her other over its surface. White lines emerge from the cool blue center to form a picture of the night sky, a cloudy blob the moon. A timer of sorts, tracking the moon as it turns. She raises her brow at her friends, offering matter-of-factly, “So we don’t forget.”<br/><br/>Tucking it back again, Reliyian waits for Aeryn to stop talking to bring up the subject of the source again, “In the old kingdom of the Ikaran?” Paused a moment, Rhiss’ command of their language make Reliyian think the matriarch might have some idea of how the people of Nuln named these lands. But if she did not catch a look of understanding from Rhriss, Reliyian would then explain it and continue, “If it will not cause discomfort, could you elaborate on why you believe this? Any information you would share would be most gracious and if it is in your interest to see this curse lifted, I implore you to build trust between us by sharing our knowledge.” Reliyian looked directly at the matriarch as she settled down, her towering form reduced somewhat and hoped to catch a glimmer in her eye of mutual understanding.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Fate Stuff</div><div class="spoiler_body">Summary: At 2013-05-06 13:19:54, Robyn Hood (uid: 15876) rolls: 4d3a-8 Result: -2 (http://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=46175)<br/>Comment: Prestidigitation for a magical time keeping clock<br/><br/>Not sure if I even needed to roll but I was trying to impress.

Her eyes beautiful, pearlescent orbs of pale sage are set against her light skin that when the light strikes her has a feint golden glow dotted by freckles from her face to her shoulders.  She smiles, you think, the expression is too faint to be sure. Even her mouth seems to shimmer with a soft glossy pink. Her ears are long, ending in perfect points. Reliyian wears a blue strapless dress held up by her impressive figure and by crisscrossed silver thread across an open back, wide enough to reveal most of it in a V-shape to the slight curve at the base of her spine. Long detached sleeves ended in golden lace that was also embroidered throughout the dress. Her skirt ending just above her ankles below which you see her golden lace low heeled sandals, it has a slight up the left side exposing much of her supple leg to where you can just make out the curve of her hip.<br/><br/><table class="bbc_table"><tbody><tr><td><strong><span class="bbc_u">Stats</span></strong></td><td></td><td><strong><span class="bbc_u">Consequences</span></strong></td></tr><tr><td>Refresh: 2</td><td></td><td>Mild: - </td></tr><tr><td>Fate Points: 2</td><td></td><td>Moderate: - </td></tr><tr><td>Physical Stress (Physique) </td><td>[1] [2] </td><td>Severe: - </td></tr><tr><td>Mental Stress (Will) </td><td>[1] [2] [3] </td><td></td></tr></tbody></table> </div></div>
