Turning around quickly in case she falls, he guides her to the wagon and helps her up into it. "There you go" He turns back to Sconibulus "If you know of some place closer I am open to suggestions. Otherwise we can continue in the previous direction." |

Sconibulus helps Daryoon keep Yamiko from falling as she gets into the wagon. "Eh, my place is probably a little closer, but it's far more utilitarian than what is favored by most magi, so there isn't much in the way of guest space. Careful Yami. Your estates are probably a better fit." He moves towards the head of the oversized Komodo Dragon pulling his cart and whispers something to it, then calls back "Alright, he'll listen to you now, he knows his left and right, but if something isn't intuitive, you might have to ask him to stop and get into his sight to point." |

YAmiko giggles. "Big scawy lizard. Maybe'll eat Coyble. Then I can go home." |

"Eh..eat Coyne?" Eyes go wide "I don't think that would help your wedding plans..." He walks over to the Dragon a little wary of it "Do you have a name" he asks it not really expecting a response. Giving it directions he begins the wagon moving back to his home. "You are welcome to make use of my estates as well, my way of saying thanks for the help Sconibulus." |

"Oh, he's Karl, and our stoic guard is Orchid, and thank you." he stands until the wagon catches up to him, then starts walking next to it. "Why would, err... Coyble, by upset with you having a drink? And how'd you dump Vik?" |

"I would hope he is able to forgive others. I am sure he has made a mistake or two and he is a Saint. If Saints can make mistakes Holy ladies should be allowed them as well. It's not like you two are married yet. Better to get this out of your system now, rather than later on in front of a lot of people." |

"Bah," Sconi glowers, "he's no Saint, merely first in a series of pretenders to the title. Case in point, check the pulse." |

"...A thousand..." Shakes his head "I dont know about one thousand, but I live by a few simple rules: my word is my bond, uphold your friendships, respect others, and payback your debts. I don't mean any disrespect to Father Coyne, but a thousand rules seems a little tedious." |

"One rule, behave in a way as to leave yourself regretless. All other rules stem from this one. Live by it and you will be happy, don't and you will suffer." |

"Sconibulus I can understand yours, but a thousand proper actions sounds like busywork to me. Something to keep the church members out of trouble." He looks at Sconibulus "I don't know if life is so fair as to always make you happy if you follow your conscience. I think that life gives you suffering to make you stronger." |

"Oh, I don't mean to say that you'll be happy at all times, but overall you'll be happier. And I certainly don't mean to always follow your conscience, that thing makes more mistakes that a blind dartcaster. Weigh pragmatism and morality of various actions, and choose the one that ends up most in your favour. Suffering makes you stronger only through teaching, that you know not to repeat mistakes." |

Smiling he says "Well said. The things I have heard about you are false, underneath the wild side you are a very wise man." He looks over to Yamiko to make sure she is alright "You don't seem to be too fond of the 'Thousand Proper Actions', do you think is proper then?" |

"The wild side is the wisdom m'boy! Damn the thousand proper actions, all except 694, and 746, and maybe on rare occasions 219." |

Noding his head "Uhhh, right... 694 and 219. I would imagine they are all, um useful. But the average person doesn't need them spelled out to live by. Trying to learn that many is.. is a little crazy. Maybe it's just my memory, I was never good at memorization portions of the tests; preferred the applications and uses, to bulk memorization." In the distance a large structure comes into view, upon closer inspection it appears to be a decent sized Villa with a majority of the building housing a golem workshop. There is a tower close to the center with a Wolf's head Crest illuminated by torches. The area surrounding it is lucious grassland dotted with trees, and a portion dedicated to a garden possibly a vinyard. Surrounding all of which is a stone wall with an iron fence mounted on top of the stonework. The gate leading into the Villa is guarded by a bone golem who answers to the name of Barry. "Ahh, I think we are here." He gestures to his traveling companions "Welcome to my humble abode." |

"Wheeeeeeee!" is all that comes from Yami's mouth. Well, almost all. After a brief pause, "...don' feel so good." |

"Miss Kuronue are you alright?" He calls to the golem "Barry, alert the staff we have guests and one is under the weather; so perhaps a doctor would be in order as well." Standing by Yamiko in case she needs support, he tells Sconibulus "I'll take that as a compliment, thank you." |

Yami does look a little green around the gills as she stumbles out of the wagon, groaning a bit. "needa lie down.." |

The gate swings open as Daryoon guides them up the path into the villa "To the main room" he answers to Sconibulus. A few servants walk quickly by making the room presentable. The main room is the size of a small house, with several couches and comfortable looking chairs at one end. A grand table with ancient decorated chairs at the other. Portraits line one wall at the couch end, with what appears to be a linage of Daryoon's ancestors, as each one looks similar to each other and to him. Resting behind the table is a large picture of a Wolf, and on the table is a map of Muelsfell with little pieces on top of it as if showing a previous battle fought. He points to one of the more comfortable looking couches "Lets get you onto the couch so you can rest for now Miss Kuronue." |

Yamiko starts for the couch, then stops, swaying. "...bathroom." she croaks out, looking green. |
