Only the best for Heyneke
4 Sep 2008
Heyneke Meyer wants to make the Leicester Tigers the best club team in the world.
Meyer and Leicester's competitive season begins on Sunday against Gloucester. After his predecessor, Marcelo Loffreda, lasted less than a year, there is pressure on Meyer to deliver in his first season at the helm. Moreover, Meyer wants the Tigers to set the standard in the Premiership and across Europe throughout his next three years in charge.
"My long-term goal is to make Leicester the best club side in the world," Meyer told The Guardian.
"We should be able to achieve that in my time here. When I left the Bulls after winning the Super 14 last year and failed to get the job of South Africa coach, I thought my time in rugby was over. I turned down a number of offers from international and club sides. Then Leicester came in, a club which shares my vision and values, and here I am."
Meyer's vision and values include success via hard work. This is epitomised by the coach's current injury, where he ruptured his Achilles tendon during training last week. "It was a sort of race. Put it down to team-building. I will be in plaster for six weeks and then see how it goes," he said.
With these core values in mind, Meyer will only sign players who are willing to put the collective before the individual. "We need a wing because of all the injuries we have: we will take our time because as well as being a world-class player, the guy must fit into the values of the club. Individualism must not come before the team. Every aspect of Leicester and everything we do must be totally professional," said Meyer.
"It [the English season] will be a new experience for me, but I have watched a lot of Premiership rugby in recent years. It is different to the Currie Cup because it has 12 good teams in it. The English season is tough because three competitions overlap and you have international calls, but we have drawn up plans and we have a very strong squad," he said.
Much has been talked about the new attacking inclinations of teams under the ELVs, but a pragmatic Meyer noted how sides have to play to their traditional strengths. "We will change tactically, improving when it comes to intensity, skill levels and try scoring, but you always have to play to your strengths."
Meyer left South Africa having nurtured the best provincial side in the world. You wouldn't bet against him revitalising a tiring Leicester outfit into the flagship team of Europe.

5 Sep 2008, 04:43 am#268 shooter: Shooter, and that ****** bunch beats SA consistently? You make me think of Jake (of which I'm a fan incidentally) with his famous Ireland comment.
5 Sep 2008, 08:49 amThis guy is unbelieveable. He makes millions telling the world how **** SA Rugby is, then wants them to create a job for him to take him back. Jake White is an a$$hole.
Jake White won't let up
Thu, 04 Sep 2008 15:49World Cup-winning coach Jake White is determined to have an involvement with the Springboks once again, despite his list of grievances with the South African Rugby Union (SARU) last year.
Even after the Springboks' ever-convincing 53-8 Tri-Nations victory over Australia last weekend, White has increased calls for him to be appointed in a new-look role as director of rugby within SARU.
White stepped down from the Springbok coaching seat shortly after their World Cup successes last year, and then released his autobiography which revealed a host of grievances he had with SARU during his tenure as head coach.
All that seems a thing of the past now, as White is adamant to return to the fold, in a role which would support the Bok coaching staff – which is headed by the irrepressible Peter de Villiers.
De Villiers on the other hand is currently set for a routine post-Tri-Nations debrief with the SARU bosses.
"As you are now aware I am promoting the idea of a 'Director of Rugby' in order to facilitate an easier succession and assist the coaching staff," White wrote on his blogspot page.
"This is not meant to be in competition or as boss of the current coaching staff but rather as a sounding board to the coaches.
"That is why I was at pains to point out that this would add value without usurping the role, functions or decision-making powers of the coaching staff.
"Just as I needed Eddie Jones' experience to bring home the 2007 World Cup, so too can Peter de Villiers and the coaches benefit from mine.
"The common goal is after all to make the Springboks the number one team in World rugby."
The prospect of White having a future role with SA rugby seemed unlikely on the release of his controversial book late last year – as SARU president Oregan Hoskins initially quashed the proposal last week, stating that a 'directors' role didn't exist within the national setup.
However, Hoskins seemed to have softened his stance soon after, saying that SA rugby personnel would debate the merits of the said position.
White described the Springboks' record victory in Johannesburg as an "outstanding achievement", saying it highlighted just what a talented group of players the current squad possesses.
White said it was important that the hard work did not end with the record win over the Wallabies, and that South Africa needed to work on its consistency.
"The next step is to build on that victory which means that right now we have to look back and see why the team did not perform as it can on a regular basis," White wrote.
"We need to sort out the problems that are holding us back and result in us underachieving. One result will not provide the answer to those questions.
"We need to establish the things that are holding us back and why they are occasioning defeats on one Saturday and victory on the next.
"We have to be consistent and that comes from identifying where these problems are. There is a world of difference between losing and being beaten," White adde

The Record
TROY — Not long after the polls closed Tuesday, it was a close race between incumbent Tim Gordon and his Republican opponent Steve McLaughlin but the latter, with about 2,000 more votes, won the privilege to represent the 108th state Assembly district.
At the time this went to press, McLaughlin had 22,547 votes to Gordon's 19,459 with 86 percent of precincts reporting. There are about 2,200 absentee ballots in the district, a McLaughlin spokesman said.
Not far from McLaughlin's home in Melrose, a victory party was held at the Lansingburgh Veterans Club where some said that McLaughlin has never lost hope with winning the Assembly seat, even when he lost to Gordon in 2008.
"He has always had the eye on the prize," said Neil Kelleher, the Rensselaer County Republican chairman. "He never really stopped running for office. He was determined and it has paid off."
Kelleher said that the county's GOP especially focused their energies on the Roy McDonald state Senate race against Joanne Yepsen, the Congressional race with incumbent Scott Murphy against Republican Chris Gibson, Troy city judge incumbent Matt Turner's race running against Charles Thomas, and the state Assembly race between McLaughlin and Gordon.
"I'm a happy man," said Kelleher. "We got four out of four."
Turner arrived at the Veteran's Club not long before McLaughlin made his victory announcement.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I did not win. We won," said McLaughlin who said he plans to focus his energies on jobs, spending, taxes and eliminating corruption in the government. Continued...
McLaughlin felt there needed to be fresh faces representing the state, especially to pave a way for his family including his two sons who were at the Tuesday night affair in Troy.
"This is the Empire State, but they've turned it into the Vampire State," said McLaughlin, a business banking officer with Citizens Bank. "We can't expect new results from the same representatives."
McLaughlin said he started his career as a pilot making $149 a week and had to supplement this with mowing lawns to pay his student loans. After 9/11, he got into banking and now has an affinity with small and large businesses in the region.
"Everyday I see the struggles of small businesses and road blocks the state puts in front of them," said McLaughlin who joined the race after a friend lost their job since the company was moving out of state to Tennessee.
"Businesses are leaving this state. It's insane what is going on."
The position represents parts of Rensselaer, Albany, Columbia, and Greene counties.
County Executive Kathy Jimino added, "It's an exciting night. Steve has worked hard for this. We all have."
Several officials at the victory party expressed their hope that the newly elected and re-elected officials would be able to decrease state and federal mandates at the county level.
Gordon could not be reached for comment.

That makes total sense. I don't know why it didn't occur to me, honestly, to send an e-mail just saying I'm applying to jobs in general and might use them as a reference.

Andy Benoit takes a tour through Sunday's Week 11 games. Share your thoughts:
Patriots 59, Colts 24
Andrew Luck was supposed to be the marquee attraction Sunday, but Julian Edelman wound up stealing the show. The fourth-year pro began his day by tight-roping the sideline for a 68-yard punt return touchdown. He added another touchdown in the third quarter on a well-designed 2-yard pass. He caught four other passes for an additional 56 yards and, late in the game, took a reverse 47 yards to the goal line, setting up another Patriots score. Edelman was getting these reps partly because another super-versatile Patriot, Aaron Hernandez, was out with an ankle injury.
We marvel at New England's ability to cultivate versatile players but too often overlook why they're able to do so. In short, it's because they have Tom Brady. His command of the pocket and football IQ allows for New England's week-to-week, even series-to-series flexibility. Augmenting that flexibility is the quick tempo with which Brady runs the Patriots' offense. It's easier for wide receivers to make big runs and running backs to catch passes when they're drawing mismatches against a defense that's constantly back on its heels.
Broncos 30, Chargers 23
As the Chargers saw firsthand at Denver, this year the A.F.C. West is too strong at the top for them to get back up from their annual midseason face-plant. The Chargers fell to 4-6, gaining just 84 yards on their first 13 drives. Quarterback Philip Rivers continued to make costly mistakes while, perhaps more discouraging, his offensive line at times looked embarrassingly overmatched by Denver's defensive front. Von Miller's name should be uttered in the same breath as J.J. Watt's in all defensive player of the year discussions. A week after going to Carolina and turning in the most dominant all-around individual defensive performance we've seen this season, Miller recorded three sacks, two forced fumbles and a handful of quarterback hurries against a more experienced Chargers passing offense.
Saints 38, Raiders 17
So the Saints are back to .500 and in the wild-card chase. Their reeling defense has sharpened a bit. More significant has been the offense's renewed commitment to balance. Upon returning from suspension, the interim head coach Joe Vitt talked about sticking more with the run. On Sunday, Vitt's team ran 28 times for 153 yards. Yes, some of those runs came because the Saints were protecting a big lead. But last week, the Saints went to the ground 29 times for 148 yards against Atlanta. In that game, their 2011 first round pick, Mark Ingram, ran with more quickness and decisiveness than we've seen from him this season. On Sunday, the former Heisman winner picked up where he left off, gaining 67 yards on 12 carries. Ingram isn't the only Saint who is rolling. Chris Ivory, who has a violent lateral burst, has provided a handful of big plays filling in for the injured Darren Sproles.
Cowboys 23, Browns 20 (OT)
The good news for the Cowboys is, with the short Thanksgiving week, fans and the news media will be less inclined to dissect this iffy, choppy performance. Despite 313 yards from Tony Romo, Dallas's passing game lacked rhythm and consistency. That probably had something to do with Cleveland's secondary – which was without top cornerback Joe Haden – being surprisingly solid in coverage for several spurts behind a pass rush that sacked Romo seven times. (This was the first time in six games that the Cowboys won with Romo enduring at least five sacks.) It helped the Browns that they didn't have to worry much about the Cowboys' run game, which continued to be nonexistent with DeMarco Murray out of the lineup.
Falcons 23, Cardinals 19
The only thing more embarrassing than turning the ball over six times is losing to a team that turned the ball over six times. It takes a special level of offensive ineptitude to lose with a plus-five turnover differential. With the utterly inexperienced Ryan Lindley replacing ineffectual starting quarterback John Skelton, and with overmatched rookie offensive tackles Nate Potter and Bobby Massie bookending the pass protection, the Cardinals were about as special as it gets on Sunday. They netted 41 yards passing and had seven total first downs on 15 drives.
Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan had one of the best quotations on the day. After the game, Ryan was told that he became the first quarterback since Bart Starr in 1967 to win despite throwing five interceptions and zero touchdowns. "That's good company to be in," he replied.
Packers 24, Lions 20
The Packers got a fifth straight victory despite a somewhat lethargic performance from the offense. Shaky pass protection has curtailed the downfield prowess of their passing attack, but Aaron Rodgers has shown he can be a game manager if needed.
Rodgers has a defense that's starting to keep his team in games, too. Playing without Clay Matthews, Charles Woodson and Sam Shields, the Packers managed to hold the Lions to 20 points while posting 7 themselves (an M.D. Jennings pick-six). They consistently crumbled Detroit's formidable pass-blocking front five, while the secondary took away Matthew Stafford's initial reads all afternoon. Tramon Williams, aided by aggressive safety help, held Calvin Johnson to two catches after Johnson posted 88 yards on three early grabs. Johnson did wind up finishing with 143 yards, but no other Lion had more than 35. Stafford struggled off and on with ball placement (as he has most of this season). Credit the coverage by Green Bay.
Bengals 28, Chiefs 6
No need for us to harp on the Chiefs' plight here – there was more than enough negativity surrounding them Sunday in their half-empty stadium, where many fans wore black as part of a protest against the team's front office. Those fans saw a clinic put on by Cincinnati defensive tackle Geno Atkins. The third-year pro, whom we have raved about repeatedly in film review posts this season, notched a sack, two forced fumbles and six tackles. Atkins has been the driving force of a Bengals team that has clawed its way to .500 and has four consecutive games against opponents with five wins or less.
Jets 27, Rams 13
After last week's trip to San Francisco, Rams wide receiver Danny Amendola made his abhorrence for tie games clear. "It's just not a good feeling at the end of the game when nobody wins," he said. But surely a better feeling than a loss when you're expected to win.
Jets linebacker Bart Scott, upset over the way his team was covered in the press this past week, staged a media boycott after the game. (He eventually relented.) You can see why the veteran linebacker was upset. The sports media love to highlight the negative. Even if the Jets were to go out and, say, win a road game by two touchdowns, you can bet some wise guy with a keyboard would find a way to focus on the fact that Tim Tebow – who was the subject of this past week's controversies – finished with minus-six yards on three touches.
Redskins 31, Eagles 6
Robert Griffin III may have had his best performance yet, completing 14 of 15 pass attempts to nine receivers. Four of Griffin's nine completions went for touchdowns. Griffin also rushed for 84 yards. Most impressive, for the sixth time this season, he didn't turn the ball over. Despite the Redskins' offense running completely through him, Griffin has just three interceptions and two lost fumbles this season.
Amazingly, the conversation this week will be about whether Griffin can get the Redskins back in the playoff mix. A win at Dallas on Thursday would put them at 5-6 and within a stretching reach of the N.F.C. East-leading Giants. This time last week, Griffin's coach was talking about evaluating players for next season. Overreactions; they make today's world go around.
Bucs 27, Panthers 21 (OT)
The Bucs' brass presumably couldn't feel more encouraged about their now 6-4 club. Not only does their defense continue to play well, but their offense is taking the shape Greg Schiano envisioned. Doug Martin rushed for 138 yards in Sunday's comeback win at Carolina. Seventy-nine of those yards came in the fourth quarter. The fourth quarter was also when Josh Freeman sprang to life. You may recall that late-game heroics were the norm for Freeman in his first year as a starter. Many of those early comebacks involved sandlot plays. This comeback was all about execution, as on Tampa Bay's final two possessions Freeman was 4 for 4 on throws 10 yards or further downfield. His 24-yard touchdown strike to Vincent Jackson was one of the best strong-armed anticipation throws we've seen this season.
Texans 43, Jaguars 37 (OT)
It'd be easy to gawk at Houston's record-smashing offensive numbers. Plenty of people will, and rightfully so. But let's take this opportunity to laud someone who deserves to be lauded but, being on the losing end of this pinball game, probably won't be: Justin Blackmon. The first-round rookie caught seven balls for 236 yards and a touchdown on Sunday. Blackmon had been averaging just under three catches and 28 yards per game. He has struggled to generate quickness and crispness as a route runner at the pro level, but, last week's underwhelming performance aside, he has shown encouraging hints in the past month. The Jags lost a heartbreaker Sunday, but at least they can be optimistic about their newest long-term investment.
Ravens 13, Steelers 10
On the first possession of the game, pigs flew. Byron Leftwich scrambled 31 yards for a Steelers touchdown. Reality set in after that, as Leftwich, with his elongated windup and methodical movement, struggled with downfield timing and accuracy. The Ravens' secondary, particularly cornerback Corey Graham, did a great job with matchup zones to crowd throwing lanes.
Leftwich didn't look completely healthy throughout the game, which will only amplify the calls for Charlie Batch that were already coming out of the Steel City. Mike Tomlin probably has a decision to make regarding whom to put under center against the Browns this week. Even bigger is the decision of whether to possibly rush Roethlisberger back two weeks from now when the Steelers travel to Baltimore for Round 2. In all likelihood, the Steelers will head into that one two and a half games back in the division. Would they be willing to ignore a run at an A.F.C. North title in exchange for having a fully healthy quarterback to lean on in the wild-card race?

Craft, local and international beer is all the rage in the Cincinnati restaurant scene and has been for decades actually when Cincinnati was one of the top brewing cities in the country. BrewRiver GastroPub, which opened earlier this month, is on board with featuring local gems and other known and unknown favorites.
Just a week after opening, my friend and I braved the "new kid on the block" to see what all the fuss was about. Normally I give a restaurant a few weeks (or months even) to get on their feet, but my beer-loving bud wanted to try the beer now, dang it. And I was pleasantly surprised!
The mood: BrewRiver, located on Riverside Drive in the East End, boasts themselves as "A delicious tribute to Cincinnati's brewing heritage." In fact, they plan to open their own brewery and banquet hall in the old church, just across the street from the new pub. Currently the BrewRiver beers are brewed and barreled just over the Indiana state line.
When we arrived, we were greeted by a very friendly host who reminded us it was a beautiful evening, so we sat on the patio to enjoy a humidity-free night. Our server said hello and gave us time to mull over the pages and pages of beer options.
The drinks: There are House Draughts, Guest Draughts and Guest Bottles and Cans, followed by the wine list. They offer beer tasting flights ($2 each for house or $2.50 each for guests) and the BrewRiver GastroPub SteinClub. The club has yearly or a lifetime membership for brew lovers. I think my friend took home an application.
After much page turning, head scratching and question asking, I branched out and tried the Dark Horse Raspberry Ale ($5). It is from the "white, wheat and fruit" category of the menu. I didn't taste the raspberry as much as the wheat palate, but it was still a solid choice.
My friend dove into a beer flight, mixing guest and house choices: BrewRiver RiverWater Dark Lager, Calliope India Pale Ale, one from Breckenridge Brewery, Island Queen Blonde Ale and the Felsen Aged Lager ($11).
Our server was knowledgeable on the food and beer selections which was impressive for being open all of seven days. He answered questions with confidence and ease. Bonus points for him.
The food: To start, we devoured the New Orleans-Style BBQ Shrimp ($10).They had a bold spiciness to them but the cold beer helped smooth out the finish.
For the main course, my dinner date was adventurous and tried the Oyster Po' Boy ($12) with a cornmeal crust, iceburg lettuce, sriracha aioli and pickled ginger on local bread with hand-cut fries. I am told the oysters were crispy and the ginger was a great touch. I can attest that the fries were worth every calorie.
I was in the mood for some home cooking, so I went for the Buttermilk Crispy Amish Chicken ($16) with roasted fingerling potatoes and vinegar slaw. The crispy but moist chicken had a local honey drizzle on top to make this perfection. Though I was not a fan of the slaw and the potatoes were a tad under cooked, I was still a huge fan of this chicken dish and will be back for more.
The drinks, part two: Halfway though dinner it was time for round two. My friend went for a full pint of the BrewRiver Queen Island Blonde Ale ($5).
I stayed with the fruit trend and found a new favorite in the Samuel Smith Organic Cherry ($13). Turns out it is an 18.7 ounce (550 ml) "Victorian Pint" bottle. There was a bit of a sticker shock though with this beer when the bill came since the prices are not all listed on the menu. That is my only true complaint – loved the beer, not the hidden prices.
As if we did not consume enough calories already, we shared the Baked Apple Betty ($8) with house made Rogue Hazelnut Nector Gelato for dessert. Warm, cold, soft and crispy make up a perfect dessert in my book.
The verdict: Winner, winner chicken dinner! BrewRiver might be the "new kid on the block" but they know their stuff and are very proud of the menu and bar selections.

Our panel of tasters really liked the hint-of-lime white corn tortilla chips in this recipe but regular or nacho flavors would work as well.

About Me Quality Oriented
Comments about Post-it� Durable Index Tabs; 1, Fluorescent Green, Pink & Orange:
learning a new job at work so many notes to take on many different tasks i have to do during the course of the week. i have a composition notebook using these "flags" as tabs for whatever task i am doing. makes finding my notes a lot easier. love the colors, wish there were more different colors
Excellent Product for Book Maintenance
By Reader
from Illinois
About Me Value Oriented
I have used several types of page markers to keep pages of my reference books ready for my use when I am looking for information that I need to find quickly and repeatedly. Post-it Tabs do this job well for me. I can also determine what information they indicate by also using the different colors to type the information.
practical & useful
By Smiley
from L.A., CA
Colorful and very useful. Makes organizing my documents quite easy.
Post it 1 in durable tabs
By Val
from Altoona PA
As a student they worked very well for my needs.
I would buy this product again and again
By Brownie
from McKinney, Texas
This product met my needs and made my booklets look awesome.
Does the job!!!
By Coding Queen
from Ohio
I'm a medical coder and each year I tab my new reference books and these work very well. They are thick enough to make it thru a year of constant use without tearing or curling. Be sure the ink is dry when you write on them as the ink can smear easily.
Speed is essential! I love these tags.
By Patty
from Eagle Rock, Ca
I use these post it tags in my daily planner and as a teacher I use them in my lecture notes and textbooks. They are not flimsy like the narrower ones so they "stay put". I love the easy access of using these post-it tags so I can get to what I need to right away. I am always in a rush so these are likes "flares" to get my material within seconds.
Great for organization
By Sy
from Atlanta
Couldn't live without it

What is Simvastatin?
Simvastatin is in a group of drugs called HMG CoA reductase inhibitors, or "statins." Simvastatin reduces levels of "bad" cholesterol (low-density lipoprotein, or LDL) and triglycerides in the blood, while increasing levels of "good" cholesterol (high-density lipoprotein, or HDL).
Simvastatin is used to lower cholesterol and triglycerides (types of fat) in the blood.
Simvastatin is also used to lower the risk of stroke, heart attack, and other heart complications in people with diabetes, coronary heart disease, or other risk factors
Simvastatin is used in adults and children who are at least 10 years old.
Simvastatin may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
In This Section:
What is the most important information I should know about Simvastatin?
In rare cases, simvastatin can cause a condition that results in the breakdown of skeletal muscle tissue, leading to kidney failure. Call your doctor right away if you have unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness especially if you also have fever, unusual tiredness, and dark colored urine.
Never take simvastatin in larger amounts, or for longer than recommended by your doctor. Follow your doctor's dosing instructions very carefully. Taking too much of this medication may cause serious or life-threatening side effects.
There are many other drugs that should not be used together with simvastatin. Tell your doctor about all medications you use. Keep a list of all your medicines and show it to any healthcare provider who treats you.
Before taking simvastatin, tell your doctor if you have ever had liver or kidney disease, diabetes, or a thyroid disorder, if you are of Chinese descent, or if you drink more than 2 alcoholic beverages daily.
Simvastatin can harm an unborn baby or cause birth defects. Do not use if you are pregnant.
Grapefruit and grapefruit juice may interact with simvastatin and lead to potentially dangerous effects. Do not drink more than 1 quart of grapefruit juice daily.
What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before taking Simvastatin?
You should not take simvastatin if you are allergic to it, if you have liver disease, or if you are pregnant or breast-feeding.
In rare cases, simvastatin can cause a condition that results in the breakdown of skeletal muscle tissue, leading to kidney failure. This condition may be more likely to occur in older adults and in people who have kidney disease or poorly controlled hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid). You may also be more likely to develop this condition if you are of Chinese descent and you take high-dose simvastatin while also taking medication that contains niacin (Advicor, Niaspan, Niacor, Simcor, Slo-Niacin, and others).
The following drugs can increase your risk of serious muscle problems if you take them together with simvastatin. These drugs should not be used while you are taking simvastatin:
- cyclosporine (Gengraf, Neoral, Sandimmune)
- danazol (Danocrine)
- gemfibrozil (Lopid)
- nefazodone (an antidepressant)

- the HIV/AIDS medications atazanavir (Reyataz), darunavir (Prezista), fosamprenavir (Lexiva), indinavir (Crixivan), nelfinavir (Viracept), ritonavir (Kaletra, Norvir), saquinavir (Fortovase), or tipranavir (Aptivus)
Before you start taking simvastatin, tell your doctor if you are already using any of these other medicines:
- amiodarone (Cordarone, Pacerone)
- diltiazem (Cardizem, Cartia, Dilacor, Diltia, Diltzac, Taztia, Tiazac)
- amlodipine (Norvasc, Caduet, Exforge, Lotrel, Tekamlo, Tribenzor, Twynsta, Amturnide)
- ranolazine (Ranexa); or
- verapamil (Calan, Covera, Isoptin, Verelan)
To make sure you can safely take simvastatin, tell your doctor if you have any of these other conditions:
- history of liver disease
- history of kidney disease
- diabetes
- a thyroid disorder; or
- if you drink more than 2 alcoholic beverages daily
FDA pregnancy category X. This medication can harm an unborn baby or cause birth defects. Do not take simvastatin if you are pregnant. Stop taking this medication and tell your doctor right away if you become pregnant. Use effective birth control to avoid pregnancy while you are taking simvastatin.

Built on more than 115 years of dedication to educational instruction, Marylhurst University is proud to bring innovation, proven knowledge, and personal attention into every classroom and online course.
Marylhurst University is a private, co-educational, liberal arts institution, offering accredited academic and professional programs designed for students with lifelong learning ambitions who must balance school with work and other responsibilities.
In addition to gaining a foundation in business and sustainability, you'll choose a specialized concentration in Renewable Energy, Government Policy & Administration, Green Development or Natural & Organic Resources, which will further allow you to target the field of business you're most interested in.
Marylhurst University offers students and working professionals accredited and nationally recognized business degrees and certificate programs that are affordable, convenient and can be completed online or on campus.
Master in Business Administration: This online MBA is designed to provide students with a complete business education that features several different concentrations in Healthcare Management, Real Estate Studies, Non-profit Management, General Management, Finance, and Marketing.
Master of Business Administration Sustainable Business: In addition to gaining a foundation in business and sustainability, you'll choose a specialized concentration in Renewable Energy, Government Policy & Administration, Green Development or Natural & Organic Resources, which will further allow you to target the field of business you're most interested in.
*Students seeking admission to Marylhurst University's online bachelor's degree programs must have a minimum of 50 quarter credit hours (35 semester hours) of transferable credit.
"In 2009, I entered the Accelerated Online MBA in Sustainable Business program. While physically, emotionally and intellectually challenging, the online venue forced me to adopt a learning curve that I have yet to discard. The opportunity to develop a discourse with other students located around the country provided insight that would not have been possible in on campus classrooms. The course topics were often taken from the headlines, so that not only were we on the cutting edge of educational style, but I was also learning from the research and synthesis of pertinent information. The professors were all active in their specialty areas, which provided me the confidence that the new skills that I was learning could be applied to the real world rather than just accumulating interesting theoretical knowledge."
– Terry Gibson,
MBA in Sustainable Business graduate, 2011
"Completing the Marylhurst Accelerated Online MBA in Sustainable Business program has allowed me to actualize professional goals that I have set for myself. The growth in the sustainable development field is unprecedented, but I believe that additional education specific to sustainability is needed to succeed in such an arena; my Marylhurst education gave me that ability to succeed."
– Tom Fernandez
MBA in Sustainable Business graduate, 2011

Abysmal Souls Chapter 6
Posted 27 December 2011 - 06:05 PM
"I suppose I should be more appreciative," Yawning and stretching, she went on, "but I still find it silly. It's not like I'm gonna deny help or anything, I was just making a joke... Anyway, as for you, sir?" Her attention was now solely on Rine, the man crazy enough to jump in a moving wagon, one that held people who were still not all that happy with him. "We're heading south, to an island not too far off where supposedly another witch resides. We're not too far from Pravna now, so if you want to run, I won't care. If you do stay, well... You should know the danger ahead. Fire is... a wild element, unpredictable and dangerous, there's no guarantee for your safety aaand since we're bringing her back alive it's only going to be that much more painful I'd assume." With hardly enough room to move about in the wagon, she simply leaned up against Adrian again, her one source of comfort in the wagon currently.
The siblings simply acknowledged what Carrion was going on about silently. They had gone a long way away from their original goal, but neither seemed to mind all that much, least of all Aiduen. She was happy with the company she was with, and Arcen didn't mind seeing her in good spirits.
"What should... we do?" Umm... Dammit, I didn't even remotely think this through "Weeellll... it's still fairly early, so we should uh... Lets try and find her, yeah! And then we can kill her in her sleep and then everyone will be happy!" So sure was he in this course of action he didn't even care about getting home. Walking in the opposite direction of Kulen, he sought the Witch as well. "Come with me, my dear, we shouldn't wander off too far from each other, right?"
----- Later that night -----
Carrion and her trusty wagoneers
The night seemed to sneak up on the travelers, and with it came fatigue. However, Carrion wanted to move forward despite the need for sleep. Forcing Grant to keep going, reminding him that they were so close to their destination anyway, she sighed. "God, this just keeps dragging on, doesn't it?"
Aiduen nodded her head, almost wishing she could get it all over with too, "Yeah, I just hope nothing goes awry, you know?" Of course, her brother had to jab her for such a comment, "Dude, come on, you aren't supposed to say things like that, it's bad luck isn't it?"
"Hell if I know, but how's about we all take a break here, let the horses get some food and water and some rest? They've been at this almost nonstop and I should remind you that at the very least you'll need them for the return trip as well..." Grant pressed the matter, hoping Carrion would understand.
"Yeah, yeah... Alright, slow this thing down and let em rest, maybe like... half an hour?"
"That... won't be nearly enough for a true rest but hey, your call..." An argument wouldn't help out and Grant knew that she wanted to get going. Pulling the horses to a stop, he started taking care of them, giving them all the TLC they could ever dream of.
Kulen and that one douche
It was quite a small island, and he had found her 'hiding' spot ages ago, but he was more interested in securing an escape from the island. "No ships... well, no working order ships anyway... I guess she burned them all? Would explain the debris on the shores. Oh well, I guess I'll work on making a shoddy replacement for it. Nothing else to be gained from finding her or confronting her." And with that in mind, he went about his business, gathering up any materials he could to make a raft.
Meanwhile, Michael had lead Beatrice to what he suspected was the witches 'evil lair'. A rather run down shack, the roof looking like it would blow away with the slightest wind. "This is it, Beatrice, that has to be where she's hiding. I can sneak in and check if you'd like... if you'd rather wait here and keep a look out. Is that ok?" He didn't want the woman to be doing anything she didn't want to do, but more importantly, he wanted to make himself seem all the more important.
With the day slipping by whilst the girl slept, he took it upon himself to pick up her small body and continue moving. He had the energy to do it, even if she didn't, and he wanted her to find some place safe as soon as possible. "It won't do for me to go through all of this only to see it all end due to frailty..." On the move, he was going through a route he was sure only he would be able to navigate and make it through, at least compared to an average human.
Posted 27 December 2011 - 06:51 PM
He had reached the island Teis had mentioned at around midday, a rather decrepit island with a lot of burn marks. Teis and Ormis were nowhere to be found; Danyon could only assume they were around the island, or already on it.
After a quick ride along the shore, he still found no signs of either of the two. As such, he tied his horse to a tree, sat down and began to read. The two of them would be able to handle themselves, probably, and if Carrion wasn't at the island by the following day, he'd just go in himself.
Yet another day, wasted in this town. He deigned to roam the back streets of Chaldron one last time, during the night. If his dad was here, he'd have been found by now; it would be logical to pack up and leave in a few days.
"Ha ha ha... Look how far the little mouse has run."
Blue hair, a cloak, a staff; It was pretty likely it was Adonis, or at least someone relatively powerful.
Cyrus unsheathed his sword, a pale blue light illuiminating its tip. He chuckled to himself and swung the sword over his head towards the man, the light emitting a beam that struck the man's back. He fell over and screamed in pain.
Cyrus calmly walked over to the man and kicked him onto his back, laughing at what he saw.
"Hello, son. Did you miss me?"

Therese had been riding for most of the night when she finally managed to reach the shoreline. As her luck would have it, there was that horseman who had attacked her earlier.
Well, shit.
She steered her horse around, hoping he hadn't seen her yet; she would have bolted if it weren't for the sight of a large armored man riding towards her. Judging from the insignia on his shoulder*, he was on some... unsavory business. How the fuck did I not notice him before? Therese pondered fleeing anyway. After all, it's not like he can chase me forever. I'll just... go somewhere where they'll help me. This was quickly taken out of consideration when she noticed how much closer he had gotten. Dear goddess, he's fast.
Only one option, really. Therese leaped off her horse and ran for it. She would have made it, if it weren't for her completely not noticing a large tree in her way. Her foot caught on a root, and she went sprawling onto the ground, only a few feet from the fancy-ass bowman.
Fuck. She scrambled up again, just in time for Tiran to tackle her again. Therese screamed and kicked the man as hard as she could, pushing him back a good distance and allowing her to get up and make another run for it.
Tiran had followed the girl at a large distance, hoping she'd be stupid enough to make a camp. Apparently she was too wary for that. Tiran stopped anyway, assuming that her horse would be tired enough that he could make up the lost distance in the morning.
He was right. His newly rested horse made quick ground on the exhausted girl. He caught up with her as she tried to ditch the animal and make a run for it. Tiran cursed and dismounted himself. Just his luck, she tripped; Tiran was never one to ignore opportunity. He took a flying tackle (right past a fairly fancy-looking man) at her, only to receive a well-placed kick in his gut. The mercenary was pushed back, momentarily stunned. When his vision cleared, she was running for it again. He cursed and drew his sword before giving chase.
*Tiran has the mark of the cult on his armor.

Hey, hey, what the fuck's going on?
That girl he'd attacked the day before was now getting attacked herself by some huge man, with some insignia on his armour. Danyon barely had time to pack his book and untie his horse before the armoured guy was chasing the woman again.
Well, what do I do? I can't just leave her, since he'll probably kill her... Oh, what the hell. You may regret this later, but you can worry about that later.
"Go!" Danyon quickly got onto his horse and chased after the two, easily catching up to the both of them. He positioned himself in between the assailant and the girl, roughly sweeping her off the ground onto his horse.
"We'll talk later, just make it a bit easier for me to move this thing." He barely managed to pull the horse's reins under the girl's arms, making a hard turn to the left, away from the armoured man and the island.
Posted 27 December 2011 - 09:34 PM
Therese was yanking at her darts when the horseman appeared out of nowhere, yanking her onto his horse. She yelled and nearly fell off as the guy just swerved away, fumbling at the reins that he had just yanked around her.
"We'll talk later, just make it a bit easier for me to move this thing."
"Wha- what the fuck!?"
It was an uneasy moment, to say the least. It wasn't helped by the fact that the armored dude had just mounted his own horse and was giving chase. And he was gaining. "Go faster, go faster!"
Tiran was about to make another lunge for it when he was shoved back by the fancy guy making a dramatic entrance. Before he could regain himself, they were off. Ah, here's a decent fight waiting to happen. "Yah!" The mercenary leaped onto his own horse and steered it towards the two. Chances are he'd lose them eventually; pushing his horse as fast as it could go would only slow him down in the long run. He dug his feet into the horse's sides anyway, closing the gap somewhat. It wasn't quite enough, though, as the maneuver left Tiran just outside of grabbing range, and the horse couldn't go much faster.
Let's try a different approach.
He stood a little in the saddle, then lunged at the pair; it wasn't enough to get him fully onto the saddle, but he managed to grab a handful of the horseman's clothing; it tore, but he managed to grab the man's leg. Tiran grinned, and pulled.

"Admittedly, you don't seem like the murderous type, and you are rather- SHIT!" The armoured guy had grabbed onto his leg, also tearing a piece of his shirt. Dammit, this thing was expensive.
He fumbled with the reins, putting it into Therese's hands. "Pull left to go left, same for right, dig in to go faster, control it for now." He tried to shake his leg, hoping to kick the armoured man off, but he was too heavy with his armour on.
"Now you go faster!" He reached for his sword, making feeble attempts to hack at the man's arms. He then decided to go for broke, smashing the hilt of his sword repeatedly on the man's helm.
Posted 27 December 2011 - 10:50 PM
That did NOT go according to plan.
Tiran had intended for the man to pull the girl down with him, get defeated handily and leave the girl to be captured at Tiran's leisure. Of course, it hadn't worked out, and instead he was now being dragged along like so much dead weight. "Hng-!" Tiran knew he couldn't hang on for much longer with the repeated banging on his helm. It would be simpler to take the bowman's horse out of the equation, but Tiran didn't dare let go to grab for his blade (which was hanging at his hip, unsheathed).
Plan B.
The mercenary risked it and made a grab for the fancy guy's sword arm when it came down and yanked again, kicking himself out of his own saddle so his body weight would (hopefully) pull the knight off of his.
"Pull left to go left, same for right, dig in to go faster, control it for now."
This was a different system than Therese was used to, but it seemed simple enough. She swerved left and right, for some part unintentionally but mostly to try and shake the man off. It took only a second to get control of the horse, at least as long as she didn't have to-
"Now, you go faster!"
Then the mercenary pulled some reckless stunt and it all got so much worse.
Posted 27 December 2011 - 11:10 PM
"Ow, fuck!" Armoured guy had grabbed onto his arm now, obviously trying to pull him off. Danyon tried to pull himself up, but again, the weight was too much. He reached his arm out towards, Therese, doubtful that she'd be able to help him, but it was worth a shot.
"Help! Pull my arm or something!"

He smiled, glad she could still joke, as she gave the man his answer. He didn't want to say much of anything, beginning to become rather comfortable in his little spot, sitting up next to Carrion. He suddenly realized how tired he really was after the day's events. Running into Grant again, finding out the truth about magic, realizing how own magic... he began to grow even more tired at the thought. Just get the island over with. You can relax all you want to, then.
Some while later...
Adrian had found himself almost sleeping, when Carrion and a few other piped up and began talking. He opened an eye, and tuned in to what was going on. "God, this just keeps dragging on, doesn't it?" You're telling me... He stretched himself to wake up fully, listening to the rest of them talk. Seemed like a bunch of small talk, but it sounded like they were going to take a small break. Good, I need to let my legs stretch... Half an hour didn't seem like much. Maybe I can convince her to increase that to an hour, or so. Let us all get a good break... He felt the wagon slowing itself down, so he sat himself up, getting ready to finally get off the ride and relax a bit. But, as it came to a full stop, it hit a nasty bump, knocking him back down... on top of Carrion. "Whoa!" Propping himself up over her, he blushed, chuckling a bit. "Sorry about that... gotta watch my footing, huh? Just seems I'm prone to falling over."
Why am I here? Why am I following this overbearing man into the jungle in search of someone who managed to kill... kill everyone? Why aren't I trying to get off this damned island? Dammit, I'll strip down and swim if I have to! Her thoughts continued to wander as they came upon some sort of shack, her sword drawn as they got nearer. "This is it, Beatrice, that has to be where she's hiding. I can sneak in and check if you'd like... if you'd rather wait here and keep a look out. Is that ok?" "Sure... you do that. Just..." much to her own chagrin, she didn't want him getting himself killed. There had been enough death, already, and she needed his help. "Just don't get yourself killed." Maybe just get stuck for a bit, so I can have some time alone to think...

It had taken them a while, but they could see Pravna ahead of them. Bad news was that the journey had really taken it out of them, they definitely have to rest the night before heading off. They trotted along , the lights of the festival illuminating the city in shadowy fields around it.
Aurelio turned back to his group, half-grinning;
"OK guys, we've made it. We're all gonna pass out if we keep going, it looks like we'll have to stay here for the night and then continue. Ormis, Teis... and whatever your name is, did Carrion say which way she'd go from here? Devon's the only feasible port... but that's going to be a good couple of hours, even if our horses are going at a steady pace."
There was probably a motive too. After thinking about it, Carrion wouldn't waste her time even to satisfy her ego. There must have been a reason for her to go.,
"Let's find somewhere to stop up, we can ask around tomorrow morning."
Ken's Dysfunctional Adopted Family
The journey had been fairly steady, Ken had to make sure that the ride wasn't too uncomfortable... but still, they had made some progress. They were approaching Jalden, hopefully they could find somewhere...
It had gotten to night time, and the day had worn her out. She had taken Reynor back to her shelter, but had fallen asleep soon after that. She lay on the remains of a bed, surprisingly innocently for someone who had torched at least two people to death.
The Great Oshea
Eager to reach Pravna, he urged his men to go onwards;
"Think of it, men! If we're too late, we'll get nothing!"
The horse was a wreck, but they could replace it once they got to Alathan.
Posted 28 December 2011 - 04:01 AM
She had gotten a decent nap earlier, and now Alyssa was awake, happily playing with one of Sophia's bracelets. She had used the time to talk to Obelia, at least getting to know what her friend had been doing the past two years.
So tired... and hungry...
She'd spent the whole day pushing her horse onward, and now, she was nearly at Jalden. There was barely anything she could find along the path that would be edible, finally hoping she'd get something good in Jalden. The only other problem was that she was nearly falling asleep on her horse, nearly falling off several times.
Posted 28 December 2011 - 08:23 PM
As tiny as she was, the sudden dropping of a body on top of her wasn't the most comfortable experience for her. "Oww..." A sharp intake of breath and a glare were her only responses to Adrian. Nothing more than a possible bruise, but she still wanted to lash out and cause harm as a response despite it not being directly his fault. Instead, she sat up and began rubbing where Adrian fell on her, trying to soothe the pain on her stomach. "Yeah" she said through clenched teeth, "you should fix that problem." He hit me just right. Maybe it wasn't his fault but... ouch... "Don't worry, it's just a bruise, just... don't be so carefree. Agh..."
It was a rather calm task, one he was relatively thankful for. Having time to himself and to his own thoughts was a blessing he rarely got, and even more rarely actually took time to appreciate. The sun setting, the quiet in the air, it relaxed him quite easily. "Lord almighty, why do I stick in Sapphire so much? Sure it's a bit warmer here but still... This is comfortable." He willingly ignored the dropping temperatures for a moment, wanting only to indulge his wishful thinking even if it was childish. Taking a deep breath of the cool forest air, he began to admire the scenery. Well, he tried to anyway until he got bored of trying to admire brown things with green protrusions all over the place. It wasn't until a few minutes of this that he noticed something out of the ordinary. Quiet. Like someone had simply removed all the wildlife... <i>Like we're being watched. Well I'll be. Highwayman? Passersby? Perhaps something completely docile in every respect yet disruptive? Either way... </i>Stretching and shifting his armor around in place he decided to take a quick break with the rest of the people in the wagon while keeping on eye on the horses. "So! I hope my driving wasn't all that bad, was it? Sorry for any discomfort!" Trying his best to be as unaware as possible he put on the largest smile he could while leaning forward. "Ok here's the deal, just act natural. best case, nothing happens, but I think we're being watched. It's way too quiet out there, nothing but the sound of rustling leaves. No critters... nothing." He spoke under his breath, hoping at least a few people would hear him nearby, and then he spoke up again, "ANYWAY, aside from that silly rumor, anyone else enjoying this cool night air as much as I am?"
"Yes Milady! I wouldn't dare die in vain, especially if it would cause you worry!" Smiling as he looked at her, he faced the shack and his smile dissipated, but his bravery kicked in as he strode towards it. Heart pounding and his brow soaking up sweat, he hesitated as he neared what he perceived as a door. It's now or never... Pulling it aside as lightly and quietly as he could, which wasn't all that quiet, he went inside.

Obelia has been a light shade of pink during the duration of said journey. It seems odd to be this shade in any way, yet her body has felt an absent shyness with the head of an old friend against her shoulder, the closest shes come to intimacy in a long, long time. She has, however, tried her best to explain through light anecdotes and simple recollection her journey, leaving the village, searching for her fathers grave and now this side-distraction, something that she feels she should do to at least aid another. She does smile at the now awake little girl, her face adopting a gentler look then she has shown in a long time. It almost mirrors her mothers in the softness displayed, smiling warmly at Sophias daughter, with a gentle grin at her friend.
I see shes as sweet as you were when you were tiny, from all those stories your mother used to tell
The hours have gone by and with a silence fallen over her, Langley finds herself strained from the emotions that have had to change so rapidly as things have escalated. She is now a light, rather dizzy form of angry, having understood what exactly has been following her for some time since she and Andy have arrived back here, now understanding what exactly it is that has been pretending to be a wraith who, from the looks of things and the semblance of the costume that has now been torn of the rather glary looking man in the chair, has been pretending to be Noels missing auntie to try and scare them both into a guilt fuelled escape from this place. It is with a silent look to Andy she tries to weakly urge him to bed, not wanting him to see Noel quite like . Well, this.
Tied to a chair now, with some rope Langley has offered from some light adventuring, is a man who Noel remembers from some time when she was tiny. Noel has quite a good memory to her, able to remember as far back as that rather awkward, ultimately fun first meeting with Langley. So she can see in the now rather lined face of this man, that same rather harsh glare, an echo of a boy who called her less then a person once long ago, a small anger called from her depths as she looks at him.
I remember you. Dont think I dont and to be honest, I thought your parents would a done a better job raising you then this.
I do-he begins, but a hiss from Noel almost makes him fall back with the chair, her eyes as narrow as slits.
I am not done. Dont think, after all this, you have any right to speak to me. He does go silent, Noels mind a bit too angry to calm down at the moment.
Carrie has spent the journey lightly chatting, sometimes back to Horatio, offering him the occasional reassuring smile, grin and some of the time lightly chatting to Amera and Gideon, wanting to know what had happened since that day at the rather crappy guild. She even blinked, wondering where Ignatius the rather kind wolf-man had gone, but for now focused on those here and now, quite content to chat.
Ellandra has been doing her best to lightly interact with others, though she has found her writing pad has slowly been getting fuller as time goes on as well. She smiles, listens, trying to engage everyone she can when they seem to be free, getting to Horatio and with a slight tired but still kind of bright smile, holding up a hello on her pad, wondering if shes just being slightly aggravating or social enough. For now, she just sticks to it, seeing where the reactions will take her.
Zwool is now simply walking to the library, yawning a bit but confident that he can check in for a book or just read for a moment or two before heading back to weight. Maybe hes unaware this is somewhat taking a leave of being obsessive, but for now he just wonders how long the library is open, a small musing on where it is still placed, before walking in a brusque manner in said direction. The book he still holds, the odd, lightly scaled book is clutched in his hand, wanting to have somewhere slightly cosy to read it.

'I see she's as sweet as you were when you were tiny, from all those stories your mother used to tell…'
Sophia laughed, but it wasn't a happy laugh; rather, a bitter and sad one. "She actually told you the stories of when she found me sweet? I'm surprised she thought me nice at all."
She sighed, adjusting her position so she was closer to Obelia, their heads touching. "She hated me, or at least didn't like me at all. There's a reason why I... ran away, instead of staying home."
There's the damn city...
The horse was as tired as she was, slowly plodding along towards the walls of the city. There weren't very many other people travelling, the only other people she saw were in a wagon, also on its way to the city.
She was nearly at the gates when the horse gave way, collapsing without much warning. Elune was thrown off rather violently, garnering several bruises.
"Fuck..." She'd have screamed, if she had the energy to. Instead, she took the small bag on the horse, slowly ambling towards Jalden.

Obelia and Sophia were still talking, Ken still deemed it rude if he were to interrupt or listen in. Ahead of them was a traveler. He wished them well on their way, not taking too much notice of their presence.
Suddenly, the horse collapsed, sending its rider flying. He stopped the wagon, he couldn't leave them and their horse to suffer like that.
"Obelia, Sophia. Do forgive me, it seems the rider ahead of us has had a mishap, I'll only be a short while."
He climbed down from the wagon and hurried over to the rider, he was prepared to help them back up. Upon approaching, he saw it was a woman, she had managed to get to her feet - she at least had some strength left.
"Miss, are you alright? That was quite a fall. If there is any way I can help, please say so. I am familiar with healing magic, would you like me to tend to both yours and your horse's injuries?"
Posted 30 December 2011 - 10:50 AM
"Help! Pull my arm or something!"
Therese grabbed the horse-guy's other arm, but started fumbling with her darts with the other. Not an easy task, as the mercenary was actually dragging both of them off to the side. She leaned to the other side, hard, briefly letting go of Danyon's arm to load a dart.
She leveled it right at Tiran's face, where his helm had eye-openings. "Arigh', sir, looks like ye've had enough." The man made the wise decision of letting go, dropping to the floor before she could pull the trigger. Therese fired anyway, hoping to at least hit some chink in that armor. Then she pocketed it and yanked at Danyon, trying to pull him back up.
"Gues' ye're not all tha' bad aft'r all, eh?"
The man was refusing to fall. Tiran was about to try and get his sword out again when he noticed the girl pointing a small crossbow at his face. Judging from what he'd been told, that would not feel pleasant in his eye.
He dropped and rolled. When he finally came to a stop on the ground, battered and bruised, he heard a small 'chink' and realized that there was a dart buried in the plating, just a few inches from the chink at his neck.
I'll get you some day, girl. Just wait.
The mercenary plucked it out, throwing it to the floor, then turned around and slowly walked back to his horse.
Posted 30 December 2011 - 11:00 AM
"FUCK, THIS HURTS." The way Tiran was pulling him, his arm would probably break or be fractured, and it was almost certainly dislocated. Therese had briefly grabbed his arm before letting go, nearly shooting the armoured man in the face with her crossbow. Thankfully, that had gotten him to let go.
"Gues' ye're not all tha' bad aft'r all, eh?"
"This is normal, I guess." After he got pulled back up onto the horse, he said, "Just stop the horse whenever you think you're far enough. I think something's wrong with my arm."
The guy pulling the wagon had stopped, walking up to her and offering his aid.
"Miss, are you alright? That was quite a fall. If there is any way I can help, please say so. I am familiar with healing magic, would you like me to tend to both yours and your horse's injuries?"
"There's... no need to. This horse can't be saved, and I'll be fine." She grimaced as she turned to face the man.
When she saw his face, she nearly screamed. She stumbled backwards, barely catching herself, before drawing both of her knives.
"No... How are you... alive... you're supposed to be dead..."
Edited by JBCWK, 30 December 2011 - 11:01 AM.
Posted 30 December 2011 - 11:07 AM
It seemed she wasn't badly hurt, which was a relief. However, the horse wasn't quite as fortunate.
"There's... no need to. This horse can't be saved, and I'll be fine."
She was right, the horse had stopped moving, if only he had got to it sooner. But that was fate, sometimes it didn't go the way you wanted. He was about to offer her a ride to Jalden, but suddenly, she started acting strangely. She seemed hostile, yet almost afraid as she leaped back.
"No... How are you... alive... you're supposed to be dead..."
Ken was puzzled, what did she mean? Did she know the assassins from earlier? It would be horrible to jump to conclusions, it might be something else entirely. Giving her the benefit of the doubt, he inquired?
"I'm sorry, I don't quite understand? Have we met before? I'm usually quite good at remembering faces but I don't recognize you."
Posted 30 December 2011 - 11:13 AM
She barely paid any attention to what the man was saying, but he, too, seemed confused, but not in the same way she was. She continued to stutter, almost shivering, even.
"Y-You can't be a-alive... I-I know... I remember k-killing you..."
Posted 30 December 2011 - 11:21 AM
"Just stop the horse whenever you think you're far enough. I think something's wrong with my arm."
Therese nodded. A quick glance backwards showed Tiran riding away, seemingly giving up on the chase. "I think we're good for now... If he comes back, we can chase him off again."
She stopped the horse a little bit further down the coast just to be safe, then dismounted and helped Danyon off.
"That arm probably shouldn't be hanging around like that, we should go find a healer or something." Therese tore off part of her sleeve and wrapped it around Danyon's arm as a makeshift sling. "So, what's the deal with yeh guys? All I know is, yeh and some knight were aft'r some random guy I met a' Pravna; wha's the big deal?"
Tiran figured it wasn't worth chasing them for now. They couldn't go anywhere soon, or if they did he could follow them. The mercenary mounted his horse and rode off towards town. From what he'd heard, the tavern here was legendary.
"OK guys, we've made it. We're all gonna pass out if we keep going... ...even if our horses are going at a steady pace."
Ormis started to say something, but Teis cut him off.
"I have no objections. If anything, Carrion would have departed for Devon; it is the closest port to where her imposter was last reported as sighted. Whether or not she stops there is a different matter. In any case, there's no sense in pressing onwards and merely exhausting ourselves; I suggest that we stay the night and head off in the morning."
