Day 8; Orb 1; Intro

[brosif]

[Sif sits in a throne that does not feel like her own, but that others have insisted she take. Nonetheless, she does look regal – she has never had a problem taking command when a mission lies so plainly in front of her. This kingdom needs help. When her quest has been fulfilled, she can go home. That is the way of such things.]

Greetings. I am [and she pauses a moment, the words still uncomfortable] Prince Sif. That is what I have been asked to call myself. Like most of you, the title was thrust upon me and I have no need of it in the long term. But here, I represent my home of Asgard. It would not do for a representative of the Æsir to leave a kingdom unaided that asks for help. I am sure that the same holds true for those of you that choose to represent your own realms.

And so, I would seek this kingdom’s best and brightest to join me in an excursion to the Two Faced Forrest, to investigate these thorns. There is a sizeable reward available to anyone who can help us provide further information about them.

Comments

[brosif]

[There are certain personality types that Sif does not comprehend. Unthinking loyalty is one of them. Which isn't to say that Sif isn't loyal -- she would die for her king. But she questions his commands when she feels they are wrong.]

Whose judgements do you go by, if not your own?

[shiromadoushi]

[[Unthinking loyalty is what Bakura has for his friends and family. The rest, he just goes with the flow, unless it runs counter to something that his friends or family hold dear.]]

My father and my friends. [[a very honest answer. Even if his closest friends weren't with him in this place, he'd lived with them long enough to know what sort of thing they would and wouldn't like.]]
