*He kind of snaps out of whatever world he is currently in.*

Oh, Alatariel I didn't even see you there. I am sorry. Yes, I am fine, *He says with a weak smile*

What can I do for you today?

It's about Finwe. He doesn't seem to be breathing. And what's this ring on his finger? What's wrong with my baby Rathil? What happened in that vortex?

*Rathils jaw almost drops to the floor*

Oh dear me, I am so sorry I must have forgot. May I see Finwe please?

*He walks over to take Finwe and smiles a bit as he holds him*

If you noticed when I came back I had Finwe in my backpack. I didn't want to risk any harm to the little one as I had to fight my way out. You saw the condition I came back in. Well my backpack is not a normal bag. It basically empties into a storage compartment. Very big inside and I had to put Finwe in there to keep him safe. The problem is once it is closed no air can get in and there is only about enough air in there to keep someone alive for roughly 10 minutes.

So I put this ring on Finwe.

*He removes the ring and it returns to normal size. Finwe watches it as Rathil moves it around and the baby starts breathing normally again.*

This ring allows the wearer to live without breathing. It was the only way I could insure he would be safe while I tried to get out of hell. I am sorry to have caused you alarm.

*He hands Finwe back to Alatariel and moves to put the ring away but Finwe starts to cry. He is reaching his hand out toward the ring. Rathil smiles a bit and pulls the ring out again and moves it toward Finwe. The baby stops crying and smiles. Rathil laughs.*

He doesn't want to let go of his first treasure.

*He gives the ring to Alatariel.*

Here you are, Finwe can have it. Wearing it won't hurt him. Just means he won't be actively breathing. Everything else is perfectly normal.

Oh thank the gods. I was so worried. He does seem to like trinkets. I was helping go through some things that came in at the guild and he kept trying to grab everything. I think he gets it from his dads side. (winks at Rathil)

*Laughs a bit*

You have been acting very weird for the last few days. Are you okay? Alot of winking and cryptic speaking going on. You aren't coming down with anything are you?

Lol. No everything is fine you silly elf.

Fair enough *He says still eyeing her weirdly*

I think I need to have a talk with Railinn about some of the things she says when I am not around. Although she may be taking over here for a bit. I am thinking about leaving town for a week or so.

Oh where will you be going?

I haven't really decided yet to be honest. I am currently torn between a decision to just get away from Sinatorium and a need to stay because of the orcs outside. Hell, I may not even travel anywhere. I may just go outside the gates and kill orcs for a week or so. I am really not sure. I don't know what I want to do.

Ah I see. That restless feeling getting to you?

No, Not quite. There is someone from a very long time ago that will be coming into town soon. Most likely today and I am not sure that I want to see her. It has been almost 300 years since the last time I saw her and needless to say we did not part on the best of terms I am afraid.

*He lowers his head a bit as he talks.*

Anyway, I must depart for a bit. Goodbye for now my dear. Hopefully I will see you again soon.

Alatariel and Finwe leave the inn.

*Rathil reenters the inn and takes a seat behind the bar. Still looking rather upset over something.*

(Alatariel and Finwe enter the inn) Hello Rathil. Are you still worried about your might be visitor?

*Azareak walks in, she walks a little funny. she takes her seat in the darkest corner*

Hello Azareak. How are you?

*Finwe coos*

*smiles at Finwe* I'm a little sore but good. How are you and the little one?

Oh we are good. Why are you sore? Or do I really want to know?

*laughs* you don't wanna know... can I hold Finwe?
