Prepare for the #LodanRespawn2024 Existing characters may choose to be displace from/have memories of different timelines, thereby allowing returning members the option to retcon their whole character. These changes are the result of the "Unnatural Fog" plot device that is running between now and the Respawn. The plot is simple: no matter where your character is, that place is shrouded in a thick fog that suspends time, but not thoughts or memories, so even if they're repeating the same day over and over again, they continue to remember, so each time feels like a new day. For those retconning OCs; this is where new versions of themselves have the opportunity to replace the old versions. Official lore and tree updates will be announced asap
Lassairs voice was something the half breed was coming to recognize now, the sound of it something expected, much like the fact he usually brought in someone bleeding with him. "Why do you always bring in wounded people here? don't you know any other doctors?" She sighed irritably, dropping her stack of papers on the desk lazily as she leaned back in the chair and gave the read head a lazy expression hidden by her mask. Pushing her seat back with a scrape, she stretched out and cracked her neck, taking a brief check over the man from where she stood before turning on heel towards the famed kitchen.
"Y'know the drill Lupen. Kitchen. I don't want blood on the couch." She really needed to consider getting a small bench bed put in there at some point with the amount of stupid people getting shot or stabbed or generally bleeding to death in her presence. Her poor couch, people were determined to try and ruin it. Dear god guys, i am SO sorry it took me this long to get around to this. Needless to say, you have my full attention now Dx

“Right. Sorry.” The reply was curt, but he obeyed, moving Charles into the kitchen before stepping back to allow Vieka the space she needed to work on him. Her first question was lost to his fuzzled mind, but if he answered it, it would have been a no. Sure he knew where the other shops were, but know the doctors personally? That was only Vieka. So all the bleeding patients he ran into would end up with her. Oops.

Elaine stumbled in the door after Lasair and looked around slightly confused at first. But upon seeing the woman in the mask she tensed her shoulders slightly before relaxing. Her voice sounded familiar but with the mask Elaine wouldn't be able to place her. The feline stood partially in the doorway and followed them into the kitchen without a word. She knew better than to begin showering a doctor with information unless they asked, and besides, she wasn't even sure if she could talk. She stood in the kitchen close to the wall and out of the way. Her father groaned softly, the spell due to wear off soon.
Terrance looked up to see an arrow pointed right at him. Yes he was trying to leave! Abort mission! Who cares if his father chews him out for it, he wanted to be alive. Looking up at the woman he grit his teeth and sneered at her. "I won't tell you anything!" He was defiant, and it could be considered that he had bravery at telling her no, but right now it was foolish. He cowered slightly even though his words spoke differently.

"Ooohhhh...." Zona said as she cringed some, making a face as though she had just stepped on something sharp, "Wrong answer." She added as her face grew a small smirk on it. Standing back up Zona rose her foot slightly and aimed for his injured foot, slamming down she stepped on him dead center of where the wound was, making sure to put nearly all her weight into the step. "Your going to answer my questions unless you want a few more arrows in your body." Zona said in a rather light voice, just a bit too happy considering what was happening. "Now, ya can either tell me who sent ya here and why your after the girl and her father, or ya can get an arrow in the shoulder. Your choice." Zona said with yet another smile as he aimed her bow at the man's right shoulder. Not only did she have him by the foot but with how close she was to him she didn't even need to worry about aiming.

Terrance screamed in pain as the blue haired woman stepped down on his injured foot. He felt hot treacherous tears burn in his eyes. "No!" Looking up he became petrified as she pointed the arrow at his shoulder. His hands clutched at his ankle, he couldn't get to his foot. "Alright! Get off! Please! Just get off!" He yelled. Terrance's raven colored hair fell into his eyes as he sat there. What he wouldn't give right now to be fighting with Elaine. She wasn't this torturous! "My father...." He gasped holding back a whimper, he could barely think. "He want's Victoria! She..she was his, before Charles came along. She was stolen from him. He just wants them dead so he can have her back. I swear I never meant....I never meant..." The boy trailed off shaking his head, he could hear Rowan now. 'How dare you be weak! How dare you falter!' He couldn't go home. Not now, not anymore. If she would just leave him alone. "The girl had to go...but I didn't know.....you don't...understand!"

Zona stood over the man as terror toot over his face, just what she liked. As the boy wailed in pain Zona could only stare at him with a face that said 'Really? This is all you can take... God grow a pair...' She sighed some as she took some of her weight off of his foot, still keeping his under hers, after all she wasn't going to just let him off the hook that easily. Zona listened carefully as the boy spoke, not only were their suspicions correct but everything was falling into place. "Does he really think killing off her family would bring her back to him?" Zona questioned thinking the man was a moron. She wanted to know where he was she wanted to see him in person, kick his arse for hurt Elaine and her father, beat him to a pulp for sending a kid to do his dirty work. "Where is he?" Zona asked under her breath some, thinking it over slightly, wondering if it was a good idea to ask. "Where is he? Tell me or you getting a deeper hole in your foot along with an arrow to the eye!" Zona threatened as she stepped down slightly, just enough to cause some pain but not as hard as before, and aimed her bow up a bit.

"Someone want to fill me in on what happened?" the doctor questioned in a bored tone as she gave the groaning man a once over. Bullet wound, although thankfully it looked like a through and through and hadn't hit anything important so it should be fairly easy to fix up. First she'd need to shoot him up with some pain killer though, there was no way that didn't hurt and it was only going to hurt more as time went on. Sorting through one of her draws, she pulled out one of the few commercial grade medical supplies she had and a clean syringe. She could have used herbs but it wouldn't kick in fast enough and it probably wouldn't be strong enough either, and working around a whining, flailing grown man would be a pain. "How'd he get shot, how long ago and Is anyone else hurt?" She asked, filling the syringe with the clear liquid before turning it upright and flicking the tube lightly.

Elaine backed up to lean herself against a wall. "He got singled out by some street thugs and it all went bad." She said keeping Terrance and the mysterious Everest man out of it. Her father gained a look of pain that Elaine partially knew. She'd been shot herself but in the shoulder. She hoped the bullet hadn't done any more damage than what they had thought. "One guy pulled a gun as we tried to leave. And not but a few minutes ago, we came straight here." She looked on as the woman did what she felt she needed to. Was anyone else injured? Zona was still back there but she could handle herself. Lasair was fine by the looks of it and she couldn't recall him actually in danger in the first place. Elaine absently placed a hand over her side where she had been kicked. Bruises weren't anything to be concerned over. "No, I don't think anyone else was injured." She then remembered Terrance. "At least not that I know of." Elaine didn't know what Zona would do with the boy and as of right now, really didn't care.
"Of course he does!" Terrance snapped. "By law of nobility!" This woman was obviously not rich he thought. "If Victoria becomes a widow then she has no one to run her estate. Or filthy merchant home in this case. She was almost nobility at one point in her life. And she still would have been if the fire had done its job in the first place. Then this never would have been an issue." Terrance still cringed at her threats. "Where else does nobility live?!" He looked away down at the ground still wishing she'd get off his foot. "With Elaine and Charles dead and gone he could go propose to her and bribe to save her home and her pride as a former Carlton. It may have worked had these people not had the uncanny ability to cheat death like a lousy card player."

"frak nobility!" Zona said as she narrowed her eyes at the boy, "Just because someone has money doesn't mean they can buy away someones sorrow or give them happiness with it! Ya it could help but the woman would be even worse off if she did go with him." Zona said she rolled her eyes slightly. "You noble shits think all your problems will just go away if ya flash a bit of cash..." She said under her breath not really at anyone in particular. She listened as the man evaded her question, she wanted and address not a smart arse reply. Turning to the large man who had been silent for far too long Zona decided it would be best if he stayed here. In one quick motion Zona made her target the knee of the man, sending an arrow directly into it, before turning and aiming it back at the boys head.(Bows II used) After all she didn't want him to follow them.
Turning some Zona looked back over to the boy as she placed a bit more of her weight on the boys foot, making sure he wouldn't try to run off or do anything he would regret, "Now you..." Zona said as she began to fish around for something in one of her side bags, "I don't like it how ya didn't answer my question right, and I know for a fact someone else will have many more questions for ya." She said as a smirk came over her face as she found what she wanted. Kneeling down Zona pulled out a substantial amount of rope from her bag, just enough o tie someone up. She held it up as if to show it off some before standing back up and gripping her bow with both hands, "So I think ya'll will be comin' with me." She added with a smirk as she swung her bow hard, hitting the boy directly in the side of the head, hopefully hard enough to knock the boy out, and if not she would just keep at it until he dropped. (Bows III used)

Terrance's eyes widened as the woman managed to drop the large thug with a shot to the knee. He bellowed curses and all sorts of swears at the woman. "I didn't avoid the question!" He said tightening his grip on his ankle and trying to at least slow circulation. "You asked where he live and he loves in the nobles district!" The boy mouthed a few more unheard terms before looking back up. Terrance then zeroed his gaze onto the object in her hand. Oh...no..... Rope. "Don't! Not to her! No! No! No!" Terrance tried to scoot away from her as well as he could and needless to say didn't get far. But a bow to the head knocked him out cold. He slumped to the ground unconscious.

Zona smiled some as the man dropped after the first hit, "Wow... That was easier than I thought." She said as she tossed her bow up some and caught it, showing off some, before pulling the string slightly and placing the bow back over her head and shoulders to let it lay nicely across her back. Removing her foot Zona tied up the boys feet just above the ankle, once that was done she moved on to the boys hands, pulling them back behind his back and tying them off too. Sitting the boy up against the wall of the alleyway Zona stretched her back for a moment before grabbing the bandanna from around her leg and wrapping it around the boys mouth, tying it behind the boys head, "I know I'm one to mess around a lot but with this I ain't takin' any chances." She said to herself as she looked over to the large man who seemed to be down for the count.
Walking over to the edge of the alley Zona peered around the edge only to see a large group of people coming from both the left side and the right. Backing up some Zona sighed as she turned around to look at the boy, "Well now what... I didn't think I would get this far..." She said as she rubbed the back of her neck. First things first, she needed to get this guy out of here and hid him, a place came to mind right away only problem was getting him there. She couldn't just drag him around on the street and with there being no way of getting both him and her up onto the roof. Letting out a huff Zona began to take off her jacket, "I really didn't want to do this but at least this is one of the safer alleys..." Zona said as she released her wings, grabbed the boy, and took off all withing seconds.
After hiding the boy and tying him up again, just to make sure he couldn't get away, Zona hid her wings and went off to look for Elaine and Lasair. She started back at the alleyway that where they all split and began to make her way down the street in the direction that they ran off in. She would run into the girl eventually and if worse comes to worse she would just need to check all the local clinics and see if they went and stayed there.
