An Odd Story of Man and Magic. A fantasy RP. (FINISHED)

[FweepFwopFwoop]

Seroteth shook his head. "No. Why? Is something bothering you?"

[Eskal]

"I was just wondering, that's all." Cormac was quiet for a bit. "I...I got a letter from him. My father..." He pulled a folded piece of paper out of one of his pockets. "I...I thought you would at least like to read it."

[FweepFwopFwoop]

Seroteth stopped and pulled te paper from Cormac's hands, and began reading it. His hand covered his mouth. "That's his handwriting…" a few twars made their way down his cheeks. "Where did you get this?"

[Eskal]

"It just showed up," Cormac said.

[FweepFwopFwoop]

Seroteth folded the paper carefully and give it back to Cormac. "I can't believe it. Things like that don't just show up."

[Eskal]

"Well, it did..." Cormac said as he stuffed it back into his pocket. He wasn't sure if he should tell any body about the strange man who visited him on occasion.

[FweepFwopFwoop]

Seroteth sighed. "Perhaps some things are better left unknown." He decided.

As they kept walking, Seroteth stopped for a moment, gripping his belly. "The contractions are getting worse."

[Eskal]

"I need a break anyway," Marius said as he set Astien down.

[FweepFwopFwoop]

Seroteth leaned against a tree and slid to the ground. He placed a hand on his swollen middle as it moved about. "Yes, yes I know you're eager to be out. Be patient; it won't be too much longer."

[Eskal]

"Is there anything you need?" Marius asked.

[FweepFwopFwoop]

Seroteth chuckled. "Some brandy would be nice. But, I suppose I'll just have to make do."

Astien approached Seroteth. "Let me check how dilated you are."

"Not very, I can promise you that. But, if it would make you feel better."

Astien moved Seroteth's robes to the side and began working his pants down.

[Eskal]

Cormac sat beside his grandfather.

[FweepFwopFwoop]

"Okay, not very dilated yet. Nothing worth noting."
"Told you."
Astien worked Seroteth's pants back up and fixed his robes. "Marius, could you help me up? I think I'm feeling well enough to walk now."

Seroteth braced himself against the tree and slowly stood up. "Yea, lets keep going. Walking should speed things up for me."

[Eskal]

Marius nodded and helped Astien to his feet.

[FweepFwopFwoop]

They kept walking a while, Seroteth occasionally stopping. "These contractions are getting worse and worse." A thin layer of perspiration was on his forehead.

[Eskal]

"Then we should stop," Marius said.
Cormac nodded. "Sounds like a good idea."

[FweepFwopFwoop]

Seroteth shook his head. "No, then I'd just be sitting around waiting for my water to break. That would drive me insane. I can keep going. We all need to keep going, or we'll be stuck out here for the night."

[Eskal]

"Very well," Marius said.

[FweepFwopFwoop]

Again, they continued onward, and Seroteth began leaning heavily on Astien as hi contractions worsened. "Seroteth, I should really check your dilation…"

Seroteth waved him off. "I know what I'm doing. I'm fine."

[Eskal]

"I can carry you," Marius offered.
"I can fly ahead ot have a party come out to meet us," Cormac stated.
