#odyssey

And Symon sees Mitra "there you are? You want to see the library or not?"

"What happened out there? When she won?"

"People cheered, roses are thrown.. " Mitra says "But you mean on the magical side don't you?"

"Thanks a bunch. Cool hold ya'll got." And Dagmar is off to wash and soak.

He nods, scowling.. and his cheeks flushing, just a bit. "I don't like being messed with..."

Shard nods "thank you. We can show you more if you wish later" And he leaves her

"Don't blame me," Mitra says "I didn't do it, or encourage it. It is part of the Pitt's nature to encourage the worship of the warrior. It comes in many forms and it's nothing overpowering."

"Mmph." He responds, watching after the doorway where Dagmar went through. Maybe he should keep an eye on her. No, she's a big gi- she's a grown wilder, right?

"Come on, let's get you to the library"

He nods, and follows her. "So about that chess... maybe just a friendly game?"

"Sure." She says "There's a set IN the library So.." And Mitra leads her in

He follows.

And the library here has lock on it.. "Pardon, we had to start locking it because of a Tribute seeking pooka." A hurumph

Dagmar finds the showers feel really good. A nude satyress is gettting blood out of her goat leggings

She blushes, and not just from the heat.

Mitra leads the Sluagh in, and yes, threr'es a chess board. And yes, there are books. He's seen better collections but it's more than the lodge. Lots of books on War though. Sun Tzu's art of war for one. History books on what happened in this or that. And one book titled 'I fought for both sides of the Accordance War and all I got was this lousy T shirt'

and.. whoa! the complete collection of Hellblazer/John Constantine Graphic Novels

The satyress looks over "Oh hey, if you want alone time let me know, almost done.. Damn nice work by the way. I was going to clean off earlier but I just kept watching the fight . DAMN.. againt Grandmother herself. Did not imagine that owuld end like it did"

"Neither did I!" Dagmar's gaze threatens to wander, and she's less inclined to HIDE EVERY INCH of skin... new injuries and old scars mix on her limbs.

"I'm Amazon" She grins 'not really my name, obviously, but the crowds love it." She's built like an MMA fighter, which she probably is, but save for a little notch on one lower lip, her face is pretty with a wide smile

"Oh, good name for a fighter!" Dag grins back.

And so, Dagmar makes a friend, While Symon gets to look over a library, and play some chess. Whether they return to the pitt or not after this, they'll certainly never forget it

But the quest is ALMOST done
