Such a brazen question struck him like a blow and astonishment flashed upon his face beforeHruugen replied, looking about a bit. "I won't lie though. The idea does have a certain appeal." Tugging at his collar he followed the line of it down to where the stone hung and his eyes met Larewen's...

"Babe? I suppose I am to you. Not that I'd know much about ancestors. My apple landed very far from my family tree." He gave another laugh to himself, his manners oddly were of an older man than his years which continued as the offer of a drink was refused. His face was one of simple bemusement...

"Thank you!" Hruugen smiled a bit wider as he sat, friendly and open. Larewen's sight would find him almost blinding. The artifact about his neck, a simple stone to all others was one of the Guardian Stones, The Light Stone and while seemingly inert to those with magic sight it would be as...

The Murky Goblet, Hruugen had let out a private laugh at the name and it was much as he had expected. Half full of people but every inch of the place thick with must and funk of all kinds. Muddy water, the crisp tang of vegetation determined to seek entrance and the tang of sweat. In a word...

The question stumped him. Not because he did not know the facts, he was there and could recall it well. It was more that Hruugen's understanding of why the Light Stone chose him was still unclear. "For a while I had been having dreams, about Valenntenia. In my dreams I walked the streets...

The Mummified bodies halted. They seemed to take in the strange occurrence which Noi had provided. Their hollow eyes gleamed with a dark-light in that dreadful moment. Hruugen held his breath and did his best to trust in Noi's unspoken plan. Until the dead resumed their motion and entered the...

Oh well it was bound to come up. "Funerary Rites mostly but also exorcism and martial arts. The 36th Temple is focused on laying the Dead to rest, in the hopes that they will stay that way." Hruugen was glad that Kiara had left. He did not wish to think less of another Guardian but he was aware...

"I shall start one then." Hruugen smiled. Few of the guardians had thought to ask him of his tattoos. Not that there was any great secret about them but he enjoyed it when others noticed them. "Of my lessons I have Master Dumah to thank. The man practically raised me at the 36th Temple, on the...

"The wise are said to fill their cups from many wells." Surprise appeared in his eyes. Were such journals open to all or only Guardians? "I haven't, I didn't know that there were such journals." Indeed their very existence raised a great many questions in him. For one he did not keep a record of...

"I hope they do. I have not yet been acquainted with the other Guardians and I'm eager to meet them." He replied to Kaira in a reassuring tone. Taking her worrisome attitude in line with his own desires then he gave a slight incline of his head to Stella, displaying more of the mannerisms often...

Turning towards the familiar voice of Stella Hruugen smiled widely. He only heard the voice for a moment as he heard them speaking with another at the Festival and decided not to intrude. Privacy was to be respected after all. "My name is Hruugen." Politeness was the morticians business, nothing...

The first thing Hruugen did when he arrived at the mountainous retreat was wash. It was a habit the Monks of the 36th Temple held true above all. Cleanliness when you have just travelled is the best introduction. It gave the mind time to reflect upon a new situation and it was often joked that...

"Yes I agree, there is some wrongness at work here." The Dead creature was discovered, then another. To answer Villam he said. "They are already dead. You cannot harm them further." Still hunkered down he addressed Ingrid again. "Discover what you can. Noi will be well. She too is a Guardian."...

Listening, listening?, to the others was help and hindrance in equal measure. It was nice to hear voices. Know that he wasn't alone but he was a bit bothered. It seemed he was not clear in his relations to the sect of Ahmu. The others seemed to think THIS was the 36th Temple. Granted they had...

Hruugen tightened his grip on his weapons as he pondered Ingrid's question. She was right, what common valuables they had were petty at best and though Noi brought an unexpected whimsy to the situation the weight of the responsibility still felt heavy so he was heart glad that he was not alone...
