You ftell, 'How're you both?'.

Xander tells you (in elven), 'Oh, I wouldn't be so bold as to approach you directly, Goddess.'.

Wellington ftells, 'Not bad just running around with under 200hps'.
Wellington ftells, 'hehe forgot I left this way'.

Malkil ftells, 'good'.
Malkil ftells, 'just wish I didn't need food all the time!'.

You ftell, 'Er, not good.'.

Malkil ftells, 'port is on'.

You tell Xander, 'Why not? Has someone given you the impression that I'm big and scary? *teasingly*'.

Wellington ftells, 'nod'.
Wellington ftells, 'I am not sure he will fight'.
Wellington ftells, 'maybe'.

Xander tells you (in elven), '(quietly...) I have heard...though, not directly of you!, that there are Vampires within the Lost...and that some of them...'.

Xander tells you (in elven), '(in a rush) Some of them like to feed on Elves!'.

You tell Xander, '*sobers and nods in acknowledgement* That is true enough...even myself...but you are safe for the moment as I've fed recently.'.

Xander tells you (in elven), 'Well....that's good, of course....but, still, I think...no offense meant, of course!, that I would prefer...to...to'.

You ftell, '*rolls her eyes at Venom's board note*'.

Xander tells you (in elven), 'well, to have someone who might know you a little better assist with our...with our.... introduction?'.

You tell Xander, 'Very well. Wellington is not a vampire. Shall I send her after you?'.

Xander tells you (in elven), '*Blush* Ummm....well, I have already made a friend who mentioned that she might be able to assist me in approaching you....'.

You tell Xander, '*frowns slightly* I see. Well...if you are more comfortable with those arrangements then so be it.'.

Xander tells you (in elven), 'Now I feel I have offended! That was not my intent! I was not planning on approaching you in any way until Samiyah was able to assist in making...proper....introductions!'.

Xander tells you (in elven), 'Please, do not be offended by my hesitation.'.

### [Somewhere, Wellington stands up very slowly and waves a hand to let you know she can stand and maybe just maybe fight a round of two]

You ftell, 'Who are you fighting, Wellington?'.

You tell Xander, '*waves a hand dismissivly* You have not offended me. I'm jut not usually feared by anyone.'.

Wellington ftells, 'trying to bait porto but I don't think he is biting'.
Wellington ftells, 'and I have to go'.

You tell Xander, 'Unless I haven't fed in a while.'.

You ftell, 'Aww. Take care.'.

Malkil ftells, 'later wellington'.

You hug her.

Wellington ftells, 'I don't think he will fight knowing I have a goddess as well backing me'.

You ftell, 'I would've stayed invis but I had a message waiting that Xander wanted to meet me.'.
You ftell, 'Now I found out that he's too frightened to meet me without Sami's proper introduction. *chuckle*'.

Xander tells you (in elven), '(quietly chuckles) Fear comes quickly to the young and new to the Realm.'.

You tell Xander, '*a grin slowly tugs at the corners of her lips* Perhaps you are right. That was much too long ago for me to remember.'.

Xander tells you (in elven), 'Not so long for some.'.

You tell Xander, 'I am ancient. I'm lucky I can remember my followers' names!'.

Xander tells you (in elven), '(chuckle) Ancient doesn't mean feeble minded.....'.

You tell Xander, '*chuckle* True enough. I shall await with baited breath to meet another talented bard.'.

Xander tells you (in elven), '(bow) As do I. (look forward to meeting another talented bard....perhaps some day I will be one)'.

You tell Xander, 'We just so happen to be allied with one of the best, so I'm sure you shall.'.

Xander tells you (in elven), 'She did mention that.....'.

You tell Xander, 'Though...don't bother bringing it up to Venom. It would fall on deaf ears, just like everything else does.'.
You tell Xander, 'Truly, THAT is the one to fear.'.

Xander tells you (in elven), 'Interesting....that name came up in my conversations with Samiyah as well...as did another......Nicholai? I believe she said.'.

You tell Xander, '*smiles wide at the mention of the Eldest* Nicholai deserves more respect than most. He is the oldest mortal vampire in the lands.'.

You tell Xander, 'Well...as mortal as a vampire can be.'.

Xander tells you (in elven), '*smile* I look forward to meeting him'.
