It was both amusing and somewhat unsettling to watch Syrawenn and Draggo argue and fight with words, the appearance of the barmaid and pancakes a welcome distraction. Gavin did not immediately dig into his food, unrolling the pancake with his fork first and taking a good look, even bending down to f...

The warrior titled his head at the warning about the sharpness of his sword and shook his head with a chuckle. “Don’t you worry about my sword.†He placed the sword flat upon the bench, glancing at the door once and then shrugging his worries about someone coming and meddling with it away. Wor...

While the pair settled their differences, Gavin caught the eyes of the serving wench and smiled encouragingly, a small nod meant to reassure her he would keep things under control if at all possible. Still, there were some things that needed to be put out in the open if the situation was to remain c...

Pausing in his examination of the house for a flicker, Gavin looked down at the girl and smiled, though it did not quite reflect in his eyes. “Hermijntje it will be then. And I think names are very important. And all people are important too. Something I learned on a stormy island not long ago. A ...

Despite Syrawenn’s response, having a potentially hostile man behind his back did little to calm Gavin down and it was just peachy that Draggo spoke up and thus gave him a reason to turn. To turn and hear his companion’s barrage of fightin’ words, his grey eyes moving down to the other man’s...

There was something simply wrong about the young girl acting so above her age, though truth be told, Gavin neither looked nor acted his age, having aged yahren in just a few short months since he left his home in search of fortune. Looking up at Jacob the tall warrior smiled and nodded as he express...

Approaching the pair calmly, the tall warrior slowed his breathing, calming his inner turmoil for now, leaving the thoughts of a snow covered dream for later, when he had peace and quiet and time to think it all through. He paused a few steps away from the pair, leather straps creaking as he lowered...

Unaware that his tease was taken seriously, Gavin was sure to pay for that cockiness later on when a kick came out of nowhere and he started cursing and swearing due to the pain. “Well, I was planning on just wandering a bit, see if I can learn something important from people that don’t know me....

There was nothing threatening in the warrior’s posture, the Dortman at ease despite the armor and weapon he carried, his eyes calmly meeting the gazes of both the girl and Jacob , a slight trace of curiosity evident in them. Edge of his lips curled up in a soft smile as the young man backed off, b...

This city was new, but so had Dort been not so long ago and Gavin felt at ease there. Walking the streets of King’s Court again felt eerie, the last time having been after his close encounter with death, or as he preferred to think of it, his brief journey to the land of the dead where he had been...

“Pffft, I was not worried ‘bout you. But, if you spawned here, others might be nasty. I can’t see their kicks from miles away.†He grinned and directed a poke at her ribs, happy to still be wearing the armor and thus be protected from retaliation to a certain degree. Gavin knew better than t...

There was little he could do, but chuckle at that particular question, and so Gavin simply let Syrawenn babble on, nodding in approval at last. “Oh, we will definitely do some barging in, but not when things could get real nasty real soon. Barge in only when you can actually do some damage before ...

Had it been anyone else that saw him in his moment of weakness the bearded warrior would have been angry, but the girl at his side was trusted and entitled to see everything and know him fully, even though he would not reveal what exactly caused him to drift away, unless asked directly. “Yeah, kin...

The hanging brought back memories, some of which Gavin truly wished to forget, but knew that he would hate himself if he did. Memories of a person he held dear once and who turned out to be nothing more than a fiend hiding behind a beautiful mask. His hero. His dad. His ultimate prey. His gaze blurr...

At her words, [b]Gavin glanced back where the soldiers still huddled around the gate and chuckled, shaking his head. “Nah, they were just being assholes for some reason. Just can’t show them you are scared.†Then with an elbow jab into the side he added. “And what do you mean, big as I look?...

Having had little experience with letter and writing, Gavin did not even try to peek into the ledger, though the words about then not being in there did draw attention, the steely eyes flicking to the ledger and back again. Every tid-bit of information was absorbed, and once the guard showed that Ga...

It was hard for a man not to look suspicious wearing a heavy armor and a sword like Gavin did, but truth be told he was not trying very hard not to look that way. As they came closer he observed the archers on the walls, not concerned about their presence as much as he was by what their presence the...

Sadly for Syrawenn the aggressive and expansionist policy of her Barony was not met with counter-threats, but with offers of neighborly help and assistance. Gavin offered to help her design the fence and even to help build it if that was what she wanted, and threats of invasion were met with queries...

The trip west had been slow and uneventful, though truth be told a pirate attack or a raging storm hitting them would not be seen as anything out of the ordinary by Gavin. Still, the past couple of months have taught the tall warrior to appreciate the calm while it was there, even though the calm wa...

There was a lot to ponder in the aftermath of the hard-won battle at Jerrhyn's Point, and Gavin was strangely quiet when the boat finally arrived to pick them up. He did insist they do not leave right away, going back to the crashed Stormbringer and sought the mortally wounded Captain Rime. Asking t...

He delayed the angry God. Stood his ground and delayed him, prevented him from reaching the others and in doing so reduced his power. Gavin did not win that battle, he merely gave the others time to do it and he was still alive after the duel. Even without the power of the Red Warrior pushing him on...

The tall warrior’s first reaction as the strength poured into him was to resist it, fighting even against his god’s blessing, though it did not last longer that a fraction of a flicker. Relaxing his mind he let the power surge into him, gazing onto his arm, curling his fingers into a fist, feeli...

Pain was good, and even though it distracted Gavin from the task at hand, it also reminded him of danger that lay ahead. Danger he would need to tackle along with the others. There were a hundred, a thousand things he could have told his God at that time. He could have begged, demanded, bargained or...
