Seike sit's and waits for the dullness of the inn to clear. He felt somethng would happen he just didn't know what. The air seemed different now. As if he was somewhere else, he heard screaming in his head
Voice: I BEG OF YOU DON'T DO IT!!!
Seiken: Put his head in his hands and wept silently. The first time he has ever wept over the death of someone, a child. During his last mission he killed an inoccent child because she got in his way. that was three weeks ago and he still remembers the screams of her.
Bartender: ey, you ok?
Seiken looks up
Seiken: I'm fine just keep the ales coming.
his eyes red and puffy he looked back at the bar and sighed, why did he do this proffession, he couldn't answer his own question.
(ooc:c'mon someone post or this story will get boring)

(OOC: Hi there. Just thought I'd hop in. BUt just so you know, I've been a little irratic in my posting lately)
Something bothering you Mr.?
::Seiken may think the ghost of his guilty conscience is coming back to haunt him when he hears the little girl's voice. Iole stares up at him curiously with her wide blue eyes. She has shoulder-length dark hair, tied back in twin braids. Her ears are clearly pointed::
Hey Auntie, is this the guy you're looking for?

::The little girl gestures to a tall beautiful woman behind her. Her violet eyes raking him over. They seem to peer into his every private and personal thought. She's clad in a black trench-coat that's buttoned all the way up to her neck, and hangs just above her knees, with black leggings, and knee-high boots. Her long raven hair hangs elegantly about her shoulders, framing her mocca-skinned face. Her pointed ears can clearly be seen poking out from under her dark tresses::
Please forgive my charge. She's rather impulsive, and lacks tact. Pleased to meet you Seiken. I'm Natalia, and this is my charge Iole. So what brings you here? I was just passing through to meet up with an old friend of mine.

Seiken looks away to wipe a tear away and then turns to face natalia.
Seiken: I was just passing through. I can buy ya a drink if ya want.
Seiken's old eyes glisten as he said this. His eyes travel to the small girl and he feels the urge to weep again but he supresses the urge and looks to Natalia.
Seiken: Who's this person you'r looking for?

::Natalia pulls out a large satchel of gold, and looks to the bartender::
Nothing for me thank you, but this little one would like a pina-colada.
::She grabs the man's collar as he turns to the liquor cabinet::
Virgin.
Bartender: ::Squeamishly:: Of course.
::Natalia turns back to Seiken, as Iole guzzles her drink greedily::
It's more like hunting actually. I just received intelligence that an old enemy of mine is still alive, and in hiding. Perhaps you've heard of a witch-hunter named Shaft.

[[ You don't mind if I join too do you? =) She's supposed to be Iole's shadow anyway right? xD]]
"Careful Iole, you're making a mess..."
::Iole's self-proclaimed doll pulls a white handkerchief from her vest pocket and catches the drink dribbling down the girl's chin. She then resumes sitting upright and formally stiff upon the stool next to the girl. Her emerald eyes watch the surroundings, with an emotionless face for her human body.::

Seiken: I haven't seen him around here before...
He looks at natalia quizzicly.
Seiken: What's the poor bloke done to a beautiful women, yet strangley dangorous, women like you. Must've been pretty bad.
Seiken Sit's back in his chair ready to listen to whatever natalia had to say.

Seiken: ... i can tell. What women would look for a fight, I haven't met one yet. But please continue your story.
Seiken's hands slip into his cloak as he sits back and waits.

::Natalia smiles::
Touche my friend, touche. Well, like I said, he's a witch-hunter. I'm not sure if he knows I'm back yet, but I intend to make him the hunted this time.

Seiken chuckles as he see's Iole and lekalli fuss.
Seiken: well there must be a reason your speaking to me about it... would you like my help in this matter? I'd be willing to offer my services for...
Seiken ponders for a moment.
Seiken: Lets say for free. My last job still haunts me a little so if theres no fee it will probly help me feel like i tried to help...
Seiken pauses and reflects once more on the death of the young girl. but soon returns to reality to face natalia.
Seiken: So whats the answer?

::Natalia considers for a moment:: Well, I don't usually hire people to do my dirty work for me. But you seem like a good soul. Here. ::She hands Seiken a small photograph:: s181.photobucket.com/albums/x285/Nataliathetragic/?action=view¤t=ShadowWarrior.jpgThat cloak is to hide the scars on his left arm. I cursed his sword-arm long ago after a... a very good friend took a knife for me. He hates Sorceresses, and anyone who may be in league with them. But rumor has it, he's been practicing dark magic to make up for the loss of his arm. Take extra care should you see him. If you don't wish to get yourself in any extreme danger, just find his whereabouts, and tell me. Personally I'd love to kill him myself. ::She slips a small handle-less mirror to Seiken. It's no bigger than the palm of his hand:: We'll be keeping in touch through this. Just whisper my name into it.

That's just it. No one knows. I just know he's still alive. A problem I would like rectified. The last I saw him was...
::Pauses trying to remember the time difference from her world and this one::
Two years ago on the Island Closest to Hell. It may be a good place to start.

(OOC: Sorry for the wait)
::Natalia grins::
In the world adjacent to this one, far south of the continent. Should you succeed in at least finding him, I'll reward you handsomely.
::She holds out her black gloved hand, and several gold coins appear in it::
Oh... that's right, you said you'd do it for free. Well, what do you say...
::She closes her fist around the coins, and they're gone as quickly as they came::
I don't pay you in money. Is there something else you would want?
