Template:Rise of the Runelords chapter

Vale joined Dorothea, Gloriana, Honeypot, Velicia and me at lunch at our inn and asked if he could use some of my ink I was using to write in my diary. I said yes and he pulled out big sheets on which he had drawn the layout of Fort Rannick and added even more details to them. We started discussing ways of retaking the fort from the ogres. After a while Shalelu and Jakardros joined us and they were friends again. We talked for most of the afternoon and the rangers had gathered their strength. They seemed to be in a lot better mood even though Jakardros still was bitter about his part in leading the patrol that had been out when the fort was hit and Vale was more of the silent type. At least Kaven had lightened up. He's cute and funny. Anyway. We spent most of the afternoon that way and then Honeypot said she would go out and see if she could find out more about Paradise's Gates. I had an idea that maybe it would be easier to get someone to talk about the tattoo if I also had one. Gloriana used some of her magic to make a fake tattoo om my butt.

I looked around and found a male customer I recognized from the meeting. I talked to him an put on my charm. We talked about Paradise's Gates and I showed him my fake tattoo and he showed me that he had one too but on the inside of his arm. I said that I didn't remember how I got it since I had been so drunk and he told me that he too had been drunk, but definitely remembered the beautiful woman who did it. She was tall with red hair, green eyes and perfect pale skin. It was the owner herself that had tattooed him. I excused myself and left.

I returned to the inn. Kaven was down in common room. I ordered some late night dinner and joined him in front of the fireplace. The light from the fire danced over his face as he stared into it. He looked distracted.
"Is something wrong?" I asked him.
"I'm just tired." he answered turning to me.
I looked straight into his eyes, sucking the grease of my fingers. His smile melted me. I put down the bowl and walked over to his chair and kissed him.

Later we lay in bed and a sole candle lit the room. He was sleeping on his stomach. I slowly caressed his back, studying it in the dim light. My hand followed the curve of his back down to... That was when I saw it. He also had a tattoo in the small of his back. I leaned over him and got the candle. Holding it next to him I studied the tattoo. It was a seven pointed star looking exactly as the ones we've seen before. I was about to wake him to talk about it, when hot wax from the candle poured on my thumb. I bit my lip and put back the candle stick. Laying back blowing my thumb I forgot about it and fell asleep.
