The Cellar, Arims
Blue sits in a corner amoungst some of the crates of food, huddled up in her sleeping bag and a blanket, watching the flame inside her lamp which she flitched from the shack. The sound of the storm outside makes her happy that she's inside a cellar instead of back in that old leaky shack. This feeling of snugness and warmth makes her feel kind of glad that the shack was destroyed, and that she and the rest of the group were forced to move on.
"Ahhhhhh. . ." She sighs happily as she reclines in her little pile of crates. She then has a thought.
"Dementa's taking her time, isn't she?" Blue tells Spider and Olm. However, only Spider hears, since Olm is asleep in the other corner of the room.
"I'm sure she'll be fine." Spider says. "She must be good at this type of thing, having had 300 years of experiance an' all. . ."
"Yeah, I suppose you're right. . . But still, she is taking-"
Suddenly, the lamp goes out. The room turns to pitch blackness. Only a flash of lighting comming from the vents at the top of one of the cellar walls illuminates the room for a brief second afterwards.
"Ahh, sod it! It's run out of parafin!" Blue exclamates.
"Not suprised." Spider says. "That lamp has probably been in that shack for a long while."
"Oh well." Blue says as she gets out a flashlight from her pocket, and jumps out of her 'nest' of boxes and blankets. "This is a cellar. I'm sure Arim won't mind if I take a bit of parafin from him. . ."
Blue begins searching.
"You sure thats a good idea?" Spider asks.
"No." Blue replies. "But I don't have any candels on me."
Blue rumages through an open wooden box containing various bits and bobs.
"I must remember to stock up on some next time I go home. . ."
"That's if you ever get to go home at any point, Blue. Those sligs might be patroling Camp Biros incase we come back."
Blue stops rumaging through the contents of the crate and sighs.
"Yes. . ." She looks at the floor. "But you know what?" She looks at Spider.
"What?" He replies.
"That's just another one of the reasons to get the mayor out of his position." She gets back to searching through the crate. A little later, she closes it with a sigh.
"No luck?" Spider asks her.
"No. . . But whats this?" Blue goes over to a box near where Spider is. As she opens it, she finds that it's full of parafin cans - Probably for the light fittings in Arim's inn.
"Ah! I knew there was some down here somewhere!" Blue says as she takes out one of the cans, goes over to her lamp and begins filling it up.
"Thats a bit dangerous, innit?" Spider says. "Keeping a big box full of parafin cans all like that in a small room. . ."
"Probably." Blue says as she puts the can back and closes the box. "Perhaps we ought to sugest something to Teb in the morning, but oh well."
She pulls out a box of matches, opens the lamp and lights it.
"Let there be light!" She says with a smile.
(OOC: BTW, I thought Blue told Dementa about the hunter getting Seltin? Blue saw it lead Seltin away and then she told everyone after getting Dementa's- Oh wait, thats right. Dementa was dead and therefore didn't hear! Silly me. In that case, make sure the when Dementa mentions Seltin to the others, that Blue tells her about the hunter leading him away towards Pyke. And don't get them confused with Emily's Magar the Hunter!)
