Chapter 34

(A/N: One last guest star I've decided to change the normal amount of party members to be more like Baludr's Gate as I see three being two small, also doing this will allow me more character devlopment, and I think make a more interesting story.)

Jaheria

Ryltar, Drizzt, and Linu came down the stairs, myself and Drizzt, with help from Viconia, had spearheaded the defense of the Inn from the drow, Drizzt had left shortly after the fight to check on Linu and Ryltar, as they had not appeared in the fights upstairs or downstairs, seeing that they were all right, Drizzt told me about Ryltar being the target of the drow's attack.

"So we got a walking lantern to show our enemies were we are? We should split up not play nurse maid to him." Viconia said annoyed.

While agreeing with her on some level, I said. "No, Ryltar here is just as important as everyone else here... though I could think of other things for a certain member to do while we go and deal with the OTHER drow." I said annoyed.

Viconia looked, at me. "You place to much faith in those that we follow, druid. One day it will be your down fall." Viconia shot back at me.

"Both of you calm down, right now." Ryltar said. "We'll get no where if we are at each others throats through out this fight. I know a little of your history together but if you are both going to be in the group you must find a way to work together. Otherwise both of you leave." Ryltar contiued looking at first Viconia then myself. He added. "Jaheria, even if you have your mission of watching me I will not have undue fighting within our group, if you and Viconia can not find a middle ground then you both will leave." Ryltar looked at Viconia now. "Is that understood?"

I nodded. "Very well Ryltar, for the betterment of the group, I will try to find a way to work with her." I said.

Ryltar nodded to me, looking at Viconia, "Well?" He said.

"As much as it pains me to do so, I will try to get along with the druid. You though male will find that I am not always so easy to persuade." Viconia said.

"Whatever, you say. Now is this everyone that is going to be going down into Undermountain?" Ryltar said.

I nodded. "I think so, Duran asked that once we were ready that we meet him in the next room over."

Ryltar again nodded. "Ok... were's Deekin?" He said.

"Here, Ryltar! Deekin had to get something, Deekin found it on one of the drow bad guys. Deekin thinks its important, not sure what it is though." Deekin said coming over to Ryltar and handing him an odd looking object.

Ryltar looked it over. "Hmmm, well let's hold onto it for now maybe its important, and will give us a clue as to what is happening."

I nodded. "A sound decsions, Ryltar." I said.

"I'm glad you think so, now, does every one have what they need, we don't want to go down there only to be caught short on potions, scrolls, or the like." Ryltar said looking at each of us.

"My only need now male is a weapon, my mace was taken from me by the guards, as was my shield. Beyond that I need little." Viconia said.

"I have all I need, Ryltar, as you are well aware." Drizzt explained.

"My needs are taken care, of Ryltar, dear. Sephaine has provided me with more spells, and abilities. As well as the experience and guidance needed to see our way through this fight." Linu said, looking at Viconia she said. "And you will respect Ryltar, dear. While your adventures have given you a certain knowledge you as I recall have no one to call your own."

"You know nothing of me! You will not dare to insult me in such a way, if you do so again you will find that I am an efficient facet of vengeance." Viconia said in anger, "I will say what is on my mind as needed, I follow Ryltar, only because I am sure his adventures will lead to power, his abilities not withstanding."

"Cool it, now!" Ryltar said looking at both Viconia and Linu. "Linu, please though Viconia does not posses the same charms that I do, I ask you at least respect her presence in the group. Viconia is you dare again utter such a threat to Linu, in my presence, I will kill you."

"Bah, you are weak Ryltar. Fine, I will never understand you fascination with charity and the like, as well as your relationship with the elf you who follows you." Viconia said turning away.

"Well now that that is taken care of..." Ryltar begin but cocked his head to the side, "Prepare yourselves we are under attack!"

(A/N: I know i said i'd have this up awhile ago but computer probs halted such updates, well as you can see nothing is ever finished, updates will probably be a bit in coming but i'd say no more then a week or so, at least one or possibly two more characters to include. One note i will make since everyones asking is, this story is going to focus less on Ryltar and Linu, and more on the other characters, as well as Ryltar's destiny.
