"Mmph" She hurumphs "Stubborn"

Jessica finishes her mug.

"Ok." she pushes herself up from the table. "Thank you, Ladies. Gerd'll be back, let me know when she returns? I'm going on patrol."

"Go with someone" Maria insists

"Everyone's busy. I'll be ok."

"But someone should go with you..." A fuss

"I will go" Holger says

The childling is armed, and ready

"Holger? Aren't you protecting the childling court?"

"They are secure here" He straightens his back "You will need me more I think. I will be by your side"

Jessica looks at him, focusing. "Alright, Holger. Let's go. I need my maul."

He nods "Bueno"

"A short patrol." she amends, glancing at the ladies.

A nod from them

"We are trolls, it should be a tall patrol, but as you say" Holger says

"Ok, you get some supplies from the ladies, I'll get my maul, meet you in the foyer."

He heads off

After a troll salute!

She returns it, and goes to find her maul in her room. She brings it along to the foyer.

Holger has returned. She may notice he has a new axe.

"Is that new?"

"Si!" He beams

"Wherefrom?" Jess offers him a rain jacket if needed, and gets one on herself.

"An adventure with a mysterious organization I am not supposed to speak of. They are on the side of good though"

"Um. Are you sure they didn't meant you should not tell -me-?"

"Oh not you in particular... they're just a shadowy secret organization. It was quite the adventure. I teamed up with the mastermind and the green thumb bard and lady sunshine... not their real names, of course. I am protecting their identities" He says "The axe is not from them. It was claimed on the adventure"

"An... adventure."

"Oh si. I am a changeling too, no? Besides, Con... the mastermind needed help at the time. " He shrugs

"Ok." Jess decides it's not important at the moment "You ready?"

"Si. " He salutes "If you get tired, I am there with you. An extra set of eyes. And maybe an axe"

"And my bow." She murmurs, and they step out into the weather.

And off they go, into the rain, two warriors, ready to defend in a time of storms
