[1: Voice Post] The truth was within the words of that man.

Aug 04, 2010 23:28

[It seems to take awhile for the feed to settle as it's static finally dies down. It's all too apparent this speaker is not used to such means of communication]I am the one called Aragorn; I've spent the last two days searching this place for any way home. I fear, Souji you are correct in all that you have told me ( Read more... )

I've knowledge of metal, but not for blacksmithing. Our iron is a precious commodity, and better used to strengthen what we have, rather than create anew.

Besides, steel holds a better edge. I'd rather titansteel, but even some truesilver wouldn't go amiss.

[voice] thirtyninthheir August 5 2010, 03:52:15 UTC

I see, I would like to meet with any whom have knowledge of weapons and the resources available. We must use what we have to strengthen us. As I said, I am not a master of the forge; but my travels afford me some knowledge.

Whatever must be done to keep the Citizens safe.

[voice] bloodforlight August 5 2010, 03:55:59 UTC

Most of us are armed. I am a jewelcrafter, but also a miner - we've copper, tin, iron, and occasionally a little mithril to be found, though iron is more precious given the circumstances.

[She gives a thoughtful, dry little 'tsk' at that.]

If you're new, you'll need a link of iron. I have such.

[voice] thirtyninthheir August 5 2010, 04:01:24 UTC

Mining may come in handy, there may deposits yet untapped in these lands. I will scout with daylight for more.

Keep the links for future citizens; I do not wish for the towns small supply to be used upon myself. I am capable of protecting myself; even against an enemy such as we face.

[There is an intake of breath; Arwen recognizes that voice very well.]

I was told that you were here, Aragorn. It is good to hear you speak.

Voice thirtyninthheir August 5 2010, 04:00:06 UTC

[He stops breathing, it is silent as for a moment he believes even his heart stops beating. That voice, he has not been graced with it's beautiful tone since his vision. She is here--she is well. It has a smile curving his lips even if such can't be seen.]

Arwen, they have brought you here too. It would seem they are set to take Middle Earth's strength in it's greatest time of need.

[He pauses, so much here to say yet he can not just say it all so carelessly over a device that any may hear.]

So long has it been since you came to me in the vision. So long I've wished to hear your voice again. You are well?

Voice bearinghope August 5 2010, 04:15:10 UTC

[She can barely speak, because of how happy she is to hear his calm yet strong and firm voice. She is smiling as well, although he cannot see it.]

I have been here but a day or less. I would have been at a loss if not for the kind hearts of the people who are here as well. And the one who best represents the strength of Middle-earth would be you.

If not for what I have learned, I would be fearful for its well-being.

[Now there is the question she has been dreading. It is not an easy thing to answer.]

I have longed to hear you speak, and to see your face once more. Nevertheless, I would not have you think ill of me, Aragorn.

Voice thirtyninthheir August 5 2010, 04:36:29 UTC

[There is a smile to his face, a lightness to his spirit that he has not felt in some time.]

You are as well, the strength of your love is what has carried me through my years. Without that, I would not be there to fight at their sides.

Yes, I've been told by Souji that our world freezes. This means when we return; the Black Gate will still stand.

[He knows avoidance when he hears it. It worries him immediately]

I could never think ill of you, never fear such a thing. Where are you? That I may gaze upon your beauty again.

A weaponsmith turned up shortly after you did - her name is Avari. I think she intends to go to the forge.

We have some stock of metal from a recent... trip we took. But we need to be careful with it, and right now our iron is needed for fortifying the buildings. With children and others that can't fight here, offense can't be our only defense.

[He smiles.]

The communicator isn't so bad, is it?

Re: [voice] thirtyninthheir August 5 2010, 04:38:02 UTC

I will see what assistance she seeks. Her arrival is a good thing for the people here.

I can understand, what all must be done to protect those who can not fight? Beyond our place in the watch; there must be more we can do.

[There's a short laugh]

It is much easier with the aide you offered me in using it. I still find it an odd way of communicating, my friend.

[voice] toplay_thefool August 5 2010, 04:47:21 UTC

Our first objectives are the inn, the bathhouse, and the town hall. As communal areas, and places we'll still need in times of emergency, we're seeking to make them as fae-proof as possible through the use of iron. Ways of protecting the iron are being researched, I think, to make sure that we use it efficiently. After these have been done, we can start putting iron onto the houses themselves.

Meanwhile, we've also started work renovating, to better the houses that we have and also to build stronger and hopefully bigger ones that can house more people.

[He returns the laugh.]

You'll get used to it. It's a bit alien to lots of people here, I think.

Voice thirtyninthheir August 6 2010, 04:25:24 UTC

It would probably be better to hold some of the iron on reserve. If the current activity is any indicator more people will be arriving. We want to make sure there is enough for the people.

There is plenty of wood, the forests around here will provide. Do we have sturdy axes?

Perhaps, I think my use of it will be limited.

[The voice is a gentle one, slightly hesitant.]

I...I am an apprentice in blacksmithing...I learned some recently, though I am far better with carpentry.

[[ Voice ]] thirtyninthheir August 5 2010, 04:49:00 UTC

Do not fear, both of your skills I am certain will be well used here. The houses must be kept in good shape and weapons repaired and new ones forged.

What is your name, good citizen?

[[ Voice ]] quiet_carpenter August 5 2010, 04:51:06 UTC

I do what I can to assist.

I am Faldain Randir, formerly of Milika, for now of Demeleier

[[ Voice ]] thirtyninthheir August 6 2010, 04:28:01 UTC

That is all anyone can ask of you.

It is good to meet you, Faldain Randir. I'm formerly of Middle Earth.

I'm afraid I have no skill when it comes to the art of forging weapons, but I am skilled with turning the skins of beasts into fine armor.

Fortunately, I was carrying a large shipment with me before my arrival.

thirtyninthheir August 6 2010, 04:34:19 UTC

Souji spoke of hunts, I will bring any pelts I receive to you to be shaped into armor for the citizens if that is agreeable.

It would do good for you to announce this. I'm uncertain yet as to the state of the people's armors. I've only been here a short few days.

shamanisticrage August 10 2010, 01:00:30 UTC

I will need time to examine my own materials and tools, as well as the skins of the local beasts.

We share a mutual problem, son of Arathorn.

thirtyninthheir August 11 2010, 01:40:29 UTC

Let me know when you wish to venture into the woods in search of the local beasts. Two sets of eyes can be valuable with the fae about.

I've traversed some of the forest already; I am not trying to make sure the locals are as prepared as we can be. I've heard of these fae coming with murderous intent.
