Livin' On A Prayer [RHI]
« on: July 13, 2015, 04:54:13 pm »
What a shithole.

Why had he come here?  Like, he knew the why, of course, but standing here looking out on this dismal gray landscape he had to wonder if it was worth it.  For all the advantages this locale offered, he was wishing he'd had more foresight when picking the place.

Shanthe had the best accommodations in the outpost, which was to say he got the least filthy house in the place.  Most of his people were a few miles away at an equally shitty village southward.  He'd come here with only two of his prophets and got what passed for a mayor wrapped around his little finger.  Now, he just needed the rest of the town.

Right now, the enormous doors of the wall stood open, and through them Shanthe had a fine view of dirty gray hills topped by a dirty gray sky.  Whooooo.

A dragon would have attracted attention, so Shiloh left Amaranth behind several miles behind. She'd flown low and dropped him off behind a distant expanse of hills, and then she'd left, for they'd both decided it would be best if she didn't stick around to be discovered. Which was fine. This job required like stealth and finesse and subtlety and blending in, and you couldn't really do any of those things with a big-ass lizard at your heels.

And so, dressed in the rough, rugged, dirty clothes worn by many wasteland scavengers, Shiloh made his way into the outpost and opened  his mind up to the town.

It was a simple mission: gather intel. No interference. These cultists were like rats and his job was to locate the nest and the big mama rat so they could drop some hella rat poison on them. Couldn't really exterminate them if you tipped them off and they scattered. Word was that there was some activity going on this way, so maybe he'd be able to pick up something juicy.

So far, he was just picking up on...exasperation?

Hefting his bag over his shoulder, he strode toward the first guy he saw. "Y'all got a motel or somethin' here?"

Y'all?  Gods.

Still, it was a man's voice, and Shanthe fell into habit at the sound of it, schooling his face into a slight smile and flirtatious eyes.

And good thing, too.  This one wasn't bad to look at at all.  Scrubby as every other dirt-eating peon out here but cut.  He had a body Shanthe wouldn't mind owning under those shitty clothes.

"Oh! Um...sort of?  They put most people up in an old barracks.  I could show you?"

...Oh.

Shiloh blinked as he got his first good look at the guy. His first look at the rather good looking guy, which he wasn't really expecting for a Wasteland shithole. Weren't all these people supposed to have rotten teeth and banjos and shit?

...Not that he cared about good looking men. Really.

Even as he found his eyes drifting to his lips.

To check for missing teeth! Really.

He blinked, only realizing the guy had been talking after a second or two of silence.

"Huh? Uh...yeah. Barracks. Yeah, sure, whatever," he said, scratching the side of his head. "Hey, ya mind tellin' me where I am while yer at it? Got kinda sidetracked, can't tell one rock from th' next, yanno?"
