    Open Catching Up: Astenvale

    'Not to worry, a little dirt never hurt nobody.' Smiling kindly, Gruki shift-stepped around the crackling campfire, careful not to tread on her knights. The horses were hobbled nearby. Still saddled, their bags contained the tools of her trade; knives and pans, skillets and spoons, and tongs for...

    'Forgetful bunch, ain't we?' Gruber chuckled heartily, black beard twitching as he thanked Arbok with an almost imperceptible tilt of his boulder-like bonce. 'Apologies aside, you're most welcome at our campfire, lady. As to our names, well, this here is Syr Jarro, of Dusk.' 'And the...

    Smirking, Gruki gave Arbok's shoulder a comforting pat, her amusement shared by the knights, and perhaps the stranger, too? 'Wise words from a wise woman,' rumbled Gruber, holding his hands over the flames as a chill wind blew through their wayside camp. 'Y'have the look o' one, if you don't...

    'I'm sure, so how about you stop worrying and relax. It's not like Syr Gruber's going to turn you away when you show up, wine in hand.' Smiling, Gruki pressed one of the refilled skins into Arbok's hand, winked like she knew what she was doing. Syr Jarro certainly did. Sat cross-legged upon...

Gruki laughed, reaching up on her tippy toes to give her bear-friend a hug. There were few people in...

    Open Catching Up: Astenvale

    The Bern and Barley fell silent at the incessant tapping. So quiet you could hear a pin drop. Turning at the sound of her name, Gruki sighed, a sheepish smile forming on her face as she recognised the figure standing beyond the pane. Though, stooping may have been more accurate. 'Friend o'...

    Open Catching Up: Astenvale

    It was market day in Astenvale village. The sun was shining, the skies were clear, and the taverns were packed with all sorts of folk. Travellers, mostly. Merchantmen from aboard, strangers from the surrounding villages- Gruki recognised a number of faces in the Bern and Barley, though she had...
