Cool Girl

It's really good! Keep practicing and keep up the good work!

"Who are you?!" Asahi tries to ask calmly the humanoid figure

Althea sighs and with that, she is about to take her leave. But then...she remembered she wanted to ask the council member something...."Councilmen, excuse my intrusion, but if I may, was...one of your parents...human? You and I seem to be the same." And once she got the answer to the question, she leaves the room. Hmmm, might as well buy some stuff while I'm at it Althea thought to herself. She also noticed that she got separated from Richard, but then while she went to the market square to get supplies, she noticed Richard and runs to him: "RICHAAAARRRRRDDD!!!" She then hugs him: "Thank Ioun you're okay!" She then pauses and holds his hands in a gentle way: "I don't blame you for losing your cool, but you can't do that! 'Cause if you lose your cool, then they'll would've won, 'cause you managed to give in to your emotions! I understand you, and I'm just as disgusted by what they did, but it's important that we stay calm!" She then pauses again: "Promise me! Promise me you'll never lose you cool like that!" With that, Althea then changed the topic to something a little more positive: "Oooooo....interesting...I see you're doing a little grocery shopping here. Man, can't wait to get my hands on cooking these. Oh yeah....you may not know, but I actually know how to cook some things, so leave the cooking to me, okay? " she said very excited Althea then changed the topic again while shopping for her supplies so that she can cook for the others as well: "You know, I went to see the councilmen...about how we can get more info...he said to ask around and hopefully we can get more info on where those hostages might be...." Althea then changed the topic yet again: "Welp, that's all I got! I'm gonna go to the alchemy and medicine shop to get some things. Well....since you're protecting me and all of that...um...and I did promise to teach some things about medicine and all that....wanna come?" she asked Richard "We can ask around for info while we're at it too if you want"

Oh ok I was just wondering. Sorry....

Bienvenue à Reborn! We hope you enjoy your stay! Hope we get to know each other!

@lifesapity Um....I think you forgot about Althea seeing the councilmen Sorry....

Ugh....this is really frustrating Althea think to herself. "Well, I'm heading back to the councilmen's office. I don't know what to do now 'cause we don't even know where they're keeping the hostages! Gonna have to talk to the councilmen to see what's next?" And with that, Althea went back to the councilmen's office with a knock on the door before entering: "Sorry to bother you, sir" She then sits down. "I have tried to interrogate the prisoners. No matter what we did, they won't budge. We don't know where they're keeping the hostages? What should we do?"

"Then, you leave me no choice! I really didn't want to resort to this...." Althea then comes to one of the guards and whispers in its ear: "Can you get me a truth serum?"

Asahi looks around confused: "Where am I? Hello?" She hears no answer. She then notices a pool of red liquid and other people who are also over there: "Um...hey...got any idea what's going on?" she asks them

Althea wasn't sure what to say or think at this point. After seeing how intimidation didn't work on the prisoners, she tries to persuade them: "Look, answers our questions and we might cut you a deal."

Asahi wakes up and goes to the kitchen. There she prepares sunny side up eggs with sausage and bacon. After enjoying her breakfast, she goes to her workout room to train in martial arts. After doing some warm-up exercises, she then goes to jog outside to the park and does some kickboxing exercises. Lunch comes and she decides to go to an Italian restaurant right next to the park, where she orders bruschetta, gnocchi with creamy gorgonzola sauce, margarita pizza, and tiramisu. After enjoying her lunch, she then goes back home to do some meditation and kendo training. Then, the time for dinner came, as she prepares pistachio crusted rack of lamb with roasted vegetables and a sweet potato purée, she reads one of the letters that came in the mailbox this morning. She sees that she's been invited to the US World Championships. She then sighs and said to herself: "Can't catch a break, can I?" After dinner, she then opens her PS3 and decides to start a new game of Tomb Raider for three hours. She then does cardio: push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups.....

Althea was shocked to see Richard punch the hobgoblin in the face.

@lifesapity To answer your question, I'm talking to one of the goblins. You know, the goblins from the Red Hand. Also, what's my roll number for Intimidate. Is it 1d20?

Althea then asks the goblins that are being held a few questions: " I have some questions for you. We can do this the hard way or easy way. See, if you refuse to answer, one of my friends here will...do something unaimaginable. However, should you co-operate, you may get treated a bit better. That being said, here are my questions: 1) You guys took hostages. Got any idea where they are being held? 2) Who is the Red Hand? 3) What are your plans? 4) Why did you attack this village? As she asked the questions, Althea had a very intimating look towards the goblins.
