Sable ducked inside after Sam to be met by the bustle within like a wall. The whole place seemed to know the lieutenant on a first name basis by the way folks smiled and greeted her as they passed. It served to make Sable realize just how badly he'd sequestered himself over the past months. He'd...

For a few more moments Sable remained on-guard, using his barriers and weapons to fend off any remaining attempts from the predatorial pack at ripping into the groups tendons. As quickly as the wolves came, they departed. Seemed that the strategy of scaring them off worked. Wildlife were...

"Ha! Great to know. I tend to eat a lot, so it'll be nice to have someone like that around. Plus, a cook that can actually fight...I'm sure that's something to behold." In time, the Waterbell came into view. The streets bustled with the night-time crowd, and it sounded like the merriment was...

Lumen Adagio, I would like that very much, though I'm admittedly ashamed that I was not the first to ask. Please, allow me to treat you to dinner! I look forward to seeing you again, soon. Yours, Sable Pembroke. Alongside the letter is a nicely wrapped book, A Tale of Bravery. Skimming...

The young titan briefly caught a glance of Lumen's stare, and he turned his head as if to speak to her, his curiosity getting the better of him. Before he could utter a word, the group was beset by beasts. "Shit!" he cursed, hefting his shield up and unsheathing the arming sword that had long...

"Good practice, I like it," Sable commented. An alleyway passed them by, and Sable scratched a cat that stood atop a retaining wall as they passed by, the cat rubbing up to meet his hand. "Cookie's not too bad. I think I could live with that if I wound up with something similar. I take it he...

Sable shot a sidelong glance at Lumen. Seemed like their little routine worked out well. "We appreciate your cooperation," he said flatly to their reluctant guide, patting him firmly on the shoulder as he moved by. In the brief moment before the duo moved out to follow him, Sable heard Lumen's...

"No, I'm sure I'll be fine," he hoped aloud. Satisfied with his work, Sable sheathed his sword back in its scabbard. "But even if it wasn't, this is a cause worth fighting for. And hell, I suppose I could always head to Elbion with you if the Guard decides they've had enough of me. My college...

"I can play the part, certainly," Sable replied. He was not keen to do so, but he was no stranger to his own imposing appearance. His build was hardly just for show, either. His ideals in the past as a protector had encouraged him to bulk up, and bulk he did. Sable steeled his expression and...

"I'm honored, really," he replied, trying to brush off his stiff demeanor. To be awarded any rank higher than the lowest possible rank was a blessing. Being able to stand on the same level as the other members of Dragonsbane would be a breath of fresh air. Well, assuming he did end up there...

The lieutenant called at ease, and Sable both smiled and winced, rubbing the back of his neck and chuckling as he did. Paying her respect had become a force of habit these last several months. Time spent, she followed up. "Right...I suppose I haven't been doing much of that. I'm starting to...

Time trotted onwards, and so did the vengeful duo. Sable was thankful that at the very least his horse was of the largest stock the Knights had available. "Big horse for a big fucker," they'd told him. The stallion did well in handling the extra weight of Zael and his kit. The conversation was...

Well...that went about as well as could have been expected. Sable cast a sidelong glance towards Lumen. "That depends...do you fancy the idea of me breaking this poor bastard's door down?" He doubted acting the part of bully would be particularly productive to their goals, but neither did...

"Something tells me Sam won't bother to look at it too closely if she knows it's from Kristen anyways," Sable replied. Kristen had a knack for being overly flowery with her words, even by Sable's standards of reading, and Samantha had little patience for that sort of thing. She'd come out here...

The months hadn't exactly been kind, but at least they'd gone by quickly. Sable still didn't feel like he'd earned his place among the Knights, but imposter syndrome was a powerful beast. He'd have to let go of it eventually...but denying himself any real recreation had honestly felt like more...
