    Re: up and about...

    Posted by Lord Tolan on 1/16/2001, 2:18 am , in reply to "up and about..."

    "No, you must NOT," Tolan insisted firmly, wincing at the pain in his side when he moved to stop the Lorekeeper. "You're in no shape to travel anywhere!" He made her sit back down on the bed for a moment, then carefully sat himself down as well. He was tired, and still hurting, and sitting down was a welcome relief from standing and helping support an equally shaky Zakiyah. If Echlar came back right now and saw that both of them had been up and about without his permission, well, Tolan would have gladly taken ten scoldings from his sister any day rather than deal with Echlar.

    "You need to rest," Tolan reiterated. He surreptitiously touched the bandage around his chest, hoping the wound had not started to bleed again. He kept his face free from any expression of concern for himself, and instead explained to Zak, "You will do your god and your task no good if you push yourself too hard and drop from exhaustion. And I don't see how you can have 'delayed far too long' when you only got this divine message but a few minutes ago. I owe you my life, whether you choose to believe it or not," he said sincerely, taking her hand in gratitude, "and therefore I cannot allow you to be this reckless with yours. Now, just rest, and tell me more about this quest you were given. Perhaps there is something that I or my retainers might do to help you. Tell me, for instance, why is it that you feel you must go to Macula, of all places?"
