"Oh, find me some sea glass, honey? Or a nice shell?"

"You got it, babe" He assures and trots off.

A smile. "My hero." And she follows Lisselle's lead.

"Your husband seems very kind" Liselle observes "He looks like a ...well, he has a kinder attitude than one might judge by looks alone? Forgive me for the rudeness"

"Oh, no worries. He and I both know he gives off a difficult first impression. And...I'm not going to lie, he's no slouch in a fight when necessary. But he's also one of the most caring people I know."

THey move around the boulder...and into the cove...it's lovely... and someone is waiting for them!

Kerri's pace slows. "Who's that?" she asks Lisselle.

"I... don't know.." SHe says...

Kerri puts a hand on her arm. "Turn back. Go."

The someone in question seems startled, "Wait, she's WITH someone?"

The redcap is not alone, scrawnier than dirk, he has something that looks like a face mask made of alabastar in one hand.

Next to him is a Piskie, she looks stunned too "Crap. It's a troll"

She spots the mask, and quickly mutters/sings, "Gimme gimme gimme gimme gravy tonight!" making a grabby motion to Mooch the mask to her beach bag.

And YOINK... into her bag it goes

The redcap curses, and starts to charge her. The piskie draws a taser

There's not much time to think, so she lashes out with primal, directing a crashing wave against them both. Hopefully Lisselle did as she asked and ran the other way.

So close to the ocean itself, waves there are. She causes the tide to LURCH and slam both targets, and they're caught off guard and go into the cove's natural barrier with grunts of pain

She turns and follows Lisselle to get her somewhere safer. Maybe we can do this without enchanting her.

Lisselle is built for cooking, not booking! "What's going on?" She asks

"Danger." She doesn't waste syllables, but keeps ushering her back the way they came, searching for Olgar.

There's a scream, as suddenly, the mortal finds herself hopscotchedd throug the air back towards her would be captors!

A reminder that Kerri's not the only one with cantrips!

"No!" Kerri cries out, then turns to face the redcap and piskie. "Leave her alone!" she commands with her sovereign voice, pointing at them, and she sure hopes they're not nobles in disguise.

(Charisma plus Fae)

And the redcap laughs "What you think you're a sidhe or somthing?"

Lisselle tries to scream as her mouth is covered

"Oh, you're going to wish I was a sidhe," she snarls as she strides menacingly towards them. All she's got for weaponry is a chimeric dagger, but she's got more cantrips to call on...and some twisting gestures of her hands call seaweed to snarl around their legs.

The redcap bends down and chomps the seaweeds to free himself. The Piskie tries to pull their prey back

I hope Olgar is seeing this... A broad sweeping gesture with both arms to crash waves against them again, hopefully shaking the piskie's grip.

the waves work once more, throwing them off

and then from behind the piskie, there's an 'ahem... you stole from my wife. Return to sender. Adress her own"

And Lisselle, for the second time, is hopscotched... this time, back to Kerri!

She grabs hold of Lisselle and says "Stay behind me." Then she turns on the assailants again. "Surrender!" It's short, to the point, and hopefully effective.

The Redcap snaps and fights it, but goes down...and surrenders

The piskie however tries to flee..

A different primal tack -- but the only bunk she can think of is "You can't drink it slow if it's Quik!" to trap the piskie in sand that has suddenly turned into quicksand.

The piskie tries to leap or stay over the sand only to get a... BOP hard on the head by an Unseelie Rover. She crumples knocked out

"I don't like hitting women, but I DO believe in equalikty" Olgar says to the downed piskie

Kerri still has Lisselle by the arm, and gives Olgar a grateful look. "You're enlightened like that."

"they...they were trying to kidnap me? I don't.. how did I get there? then HERE? I..." The Chef is confused

"You're in shock," Kerri explains quickly. "It's okay, you're okay."

"We need to get you someplace safer, though." A look to Olgar. "And we need to call the authorities on these two."

Olgar nods

"I.. I'm okay" The Chef says
