*looks at the target and shoots her arrow* "I've got him!" I shout as I see the arrow sticking in the red bullseye of the target. " "*gives a new arrow* good, and now let's work on your aiming, for you aim like a drunken drow..*laughs*" Gonfindle says. "*kicks against his leg* hey I'm only learning it, It's good enough for me..." I speak annoyed. Gonfindle rubs over his leg and then nods "*grins* I was only joking, Isil, you're pretty good...*hears the sound of a horn* hey we've got visitors. *raises from the bench* come..let's see who it is." **nods* I already know, it's Uther who has returned from his honeymoon..." I answer. "*looks at her* How do you know that?" Gonfindle asks. "*winks* the sound of the horn, it is a silver one instead of an ordinary cowhorn...Uther's party is the only one I know that has one..." I answer while placing the bow upon the bench. "Neverless we should greet him." he says and together we run towards town square. "*points* you're right it is Uther...come let's hear what he has to say.." Gonfindle urges. "*mutters* alright I'm coming..." Uther jumps off his horse and gazes at all the town folks. "*shouts* Happy Samhain, alright a little late but...*winks* who wants to have some real fun? *hears the people talk* good, I want to organize a hunt in the nearby forest, and anyone who participates can eat his or her own deer in the evening during a big feast." "*looks at him* and what is the reason for this hunt Uther? Usually you don't do such a thing..." Lancelot asks. "*shakes the old man's hand* I've seen tracks of a wounded bear, probably sick too and in order to preserve the other bears...I'm intending to put the animal out of his misery." Uther answers. Lancelot looks at Llyana who constantly rubs over her belly. I see it too and give Gonfindle a push "*whispers* there is a little Uther inside her belly" "*whispers back* forget it Isil, this is way too early for us, if that is what you're chasing..." "*whispers* Silly, I know that, but I'm only saying that Uther hasn't wasted any time...*grins*" "*grins back* I get it...*winks then turns to Uther* Say Uther when is that hunt?" "*looks into Gonfindle's direction* within half an hour, I'm in the mood for it so...*helps his wife off her horse* and besides, there is something to celebrate too..." Uther begins. "I'm expecting a child, yes it is very soon but...*sighes* I'm very glad." Llyana finishes. The whole town begins to cheer while a few young men, including Gonfindle, run to their houses to get their bow and arrows. "*winks* I'll be back before dinner..." Gonfindle says to me. "*throws off cape* I'm coming with you, I've learned much and I want to put myself to the test." I speak with a serious undertone. Uther begins to laugh followed by Lancelot. "*wipes the tears off his face* looks to me son that you have a stubborn lady with you..." "*grins* isilheledh sure knows what she wants...*turns to the hunters* alright whoever catches the bear...receives a small reward, remember that this hunt is only to take out the weaker animals...and the meat will be usefull for the winter too, In the high north I've learned how to preserve the meat by using salt...so..happy hunting everybody." Uther speaks while going to the front of the group. Along with twelve men I depart out of Dun Natal and march towards the forest. "*whispers* I don't think they will miss us when we sneak out..." "*sighes* is that all you can think off? I want to hunt too, the rest is for another time, *sighes again*" I answer. "*takes my hand* hey I can't help it that you turn me on all the time, like for example, in the bakery when you're making the bread..." Gonfindle begins but I hold him as I spot a deer which seems to have trouble with walking. "*whispers* let the hunt begin" I say to him.
