The group re-emerge onto the stone teleportation circle of Daring Heights in a burst of bright arcane energy. For once after an adventure the majority of them look excited and wired. Who knew that some good ol’ fashioned investigating would lead to them all becoming honorary aerial pirates, or Freetraders as the official term in Aaqa goes. If that Thunderstorm airship is found again, maybe we can figure out how it was able to plane shift to the Shadowfell.
Markas and Sheryl immediately say their goodbyes and walk towards the centre of town, enthusiastically chatting about the new information today’s investigations revealed. BB wasn’t really sure what was going on most of the time, but those two are happy with the results, and that’s what counts.
G’Lorth and his bathtub procession follow in the same general direction shortly after. BB still has no idea what to think of the golden grung, but he definitely knows how to talk himself through a situation.
As BB waves her goodbyes and also turns to leave, she almost bumps into Bones who is waiting patiently behind her. Something obviously on his mind.
“BB. You are scared of fire. Why?”
BB is a little taken aback by the direct question, but quickly her expression changes to something more calm. She holds both her hands out to Bones, palm-side up, to show the old healed burn scars there.
“I tried to put out a big fire a long time ago. Obviously it didn’t work, and went pretty badly for me. I guess you could say I’ve been scared of fire since.”
She pauses, bringing her arms down to hug around her torso, before continuing.
“I don’t like it. Fire is destructive and painful, it’s only brought bad stuff and bad memories for me.” She frowns deeper, wanting to say something else but she stops herself. “I just don’t like it?”
Bones tilts his head. “But --" he insists, "Fire… can be good. It provides warmth, purifies, starts life anew. Wildfires, for instance, and....”
At the mention of wildfires BB draws her arms tighter around herself as her whole body goes rigid before she interrupts Bones.
“I just don’t like fire Bones. I don’t think it’s good. Sorry. I… I’ll see you later, have a nice evening okay?” BB smiles weakly and quickly walks off before Bones even replies.
Bones stares at her retreating figure and sighs. 'Fire is destructive and painful', she said.
'As it is,' Bones thinks. 'As am I.'
