(Note: Due to a Power Outage. I am missing the First Half of the log)

Aikuen chuckles a bit and nods, "Oh. Will be fine. EVEN if we did. We would pay bail ourselves..." Aik snorts a bit. He then looks to Fira who is clutching her stomach. Lightly. But noticeable. Aik blinks at her for a bit before having a very silent conversation with her. Lot of nodding and sighing though. Aik then nods as he looks to the three stoats, "Ummm... Do you mind if two of you will take Fira back to the ship..." Its one of the pregger, moments. Dont ask what it is. Just do it. Its better that you DONT know.

The stoats laugh a little bit and smirks. "No...you'd just have to pay me back is all." Kentar smiles before they three tilt their head. "Sure. Robin and I can take her back." Chris says. Robin blinks and looks down at the smaller stoat before nodding. "Yeah. We can." he smiles as they stand up.

Aikuen rolls his eyes at the stoat, "Oh aye.... But not a gold more" he shakes his head as he stands helping his wife to her feet. As she goes over to the two younger stoats. Giving a bit of a smile. But still feeling. Bad to give them much else. Aik smiles at her and kisses her head as she passes. He then looks to the oldest stoat, "I need you to help me find something..." he nods a bit.

Kentar waves at the stoats and otter as they go off before looking to Aik and tilting his head. "Oh?" he asks with a hum. "What do you need to get?" he asks with a smile.

Aikuen nods a bit as he points toward the market area, "Fira is in the... Depressed phase of... Pregnancy. You know what i mean. Anyway. I want to get her a present. Something that's just for her... I want to get her... A book." he grins a bit, "That will bring a smile to her face!"

Kentar follows and ohs with a nod. "A book would cheer her up, I'm sure." he smiles and nods as he goes off. "But why do you need my help?" he asks, tilting his head. "I don't know very much about Fira's reading tastes." he chuckles.

Aikuen chuckles and bit. As he leads him to the bookstore in the market place, "Because. If i DO need bail. You can be there!" he winks playfully shoving the stoat, "Nah. I just someone here so i dont get my butt thrown in jail for some reason." he nods a bit.

Kentar hums. "Why would you get thrown in jail?" he asks with a chuckle and a shake of his head as he shoves back. "Anyways. Books books books. Maybe I could find some cookbooks for Garnet." he smiles.

Aikuen chuckles as he points at himself, "Cause its me. I bet i will do something stupid. And its some big offense that apparently is in affect on this island. Just watch." he then nods, "See. There yah go. I wont be long. Im gonna get Fira a nice language book. She'd like that!" he enters a store with a picture of a book outside. Inside its a veritable library of books. With an old mouse behind the counter.

Kentar enters the store and looks around after the otter, nodding. "I'm sure." he looks around before finding the cookbooks, flipping through some of the pages with a quiet hum.

Aikuen goes over to the books that look like picture books. But are actually written in some other language. As he starts to flip through them. Yay! More pretty pictures! The mouse puts down the paper as he sees customers and first goes over to the otter, "May i help you, umm..." he blinks at the otter, "Sir?" Before going wide eyed. But not saying anything more just yet. Aik smiles and says, "Oh aye! Im looking for a nice... Language book.... Thing" The mouse's mouth is still hanging open as he nods, "Ummm... Okay. I have a good one!" he gulps before heading off to the back quickly. Aik just blinks at him.

Kentar oohs and picks out a couple of cookbooks, stacking them on top of each other as he carries them to the counter. "Garnet would love these." He smiles and then watches the mouse go into the back. "That was...odd." he nods. He does a look around to make sure no one else is here before he checks the throwing knives on his belt. Yep. Still there. Just making sure.

Aikuen nods a bit as he goes back to the counter, "It was..." then he notices him checking the knife, "Maybe he cant stand so many handsome beasts all in one place." he snorts. The mouse soon returns. And he is sweating. But he has a book with him. Deep brown leather. He holds it out to the otter, "This is an old dialect. Not seen in many ages!" Aik smiles as he looks at it. Ahh. Looks real good! He then nods, "Ill take it!" "Umm... 25 gold will be the price!" "...Alright" Aik nods a bit as he counts the gold from his pocket. The mouse then goes to look at the stoat, "Ahhh... All these? That will be..." he counts in his mind, "30 gold total" he nods. He seems very apprehensive.

Kentar nods and grins. "I'm sure." He chuckles. "Too bad I don't see anyone else as handsome as I am." he laughs and then looks to the mouse. "Yep." he smiles before blinking. "Only thirty?" he hums. "I would have thought more." he shrugs a bit and counts out thirty coins, but another five as a 'tip' since he seems scared. Maybe that will put him at ease. "Thanks." he smiles bright. "My wife will love these."

Aikuen smiles as he takes the book in paw and heads for the door. That was easy enough. As he waits for the stoat to finish his transaction. The mouse nods a bit, "Cooking is popular here... We have a lot of book for it" he nods a bit taking the gold and tip. Smiling a bit at it. Now he feels bad at what he did. As he heads... Back into the back of the store once more. Aik smiles, "Well... That was fast!" he says holding the door open for the stoat.

Kentar takes the books and watches the mouse go back. "Nice fellow." he thinks. "I don't like him." the stoat pauses on the way out and looks into the back. He shakes his head and steps out of the store, looking around. "Lets head back to the ship." he nods.

Aikuen nods as he heads out, "Okay. Sounds like a plan..." he makes a quick left turn. In the opposite direction where the stoat was looking. In almost an instant. A bag falls from the sky and wraps the otter up. Causing him to fall over. And then if the bag could fly. Its shot back up into the air and onto the roof. There was a light uff from the otter... Then there is no more sound after that.

Kentar blinks and drops his books, running around the corner. "AIK!" he yells out and just as he yelled, he looks up, a knife already in his paw. Its dropped on the ground when the bag fell on top of him, and he too is dragged off, leaving his knife, and the books on the ground.

The stoat bag is pulled quickly up and placed on the roof. Two badgers in white hooded clothe, make sure the bag is tied securely before putting them both in another larger bag. Tied and dropped on the hard roof. Aik yells, "Son of bi... KENTAR!" he curses as he tries to move. But he can barely move at all. Cant even draw is sword. One of the badger jump off the roof. And land silently on the ground. Then the bag is tossed from roof to badger below. Caught deftly. The other badger is soon to follow. Opening a sewer grate. And they both quickly disappear. All this. In a total time, of a minute. They are quick to work.

Kentar kept trying to reach a knife, since its smaller, he thought it would have been easier. "When I get out of here, I will skin you all alive!" the stoat growls as he tries to get his knife still, only to be dragged in the sewer.

The badgers drop into sewer as they drag the bag in the water. Aik coughs and hacks as the... 'Water' gets caught in his mouth. Its not long before Aik gets hit on the head with a rock. And he is dazed. But good thing they don't have much longer to go as the bag is thrown into a metal jail cell. At least. Thats all it can be told from inside the bag.

Kentar is not so lucky to get knocked out, but he does cough when he tastes the water. The stoat is still squirming in the bag. "Let me go cowards. I'll make sure you and death get to know each other!" he yells. "There are others! When they find out, they'll come for us!" he barks out and then when they're thrown into the cell, is when he hits his head, getting dazed himself before he tries his best to shake it off but fails miserably

Aikuen blinks as he tries to see the bag just in front of him. Okay. Things are spinning still. It takes a little bit before saying, "Ken... Kentar? Are... Are you alight?" hearing him from before, "Are... Are you there?"

Kentar shakes his head and blinks several times, his eyepatch having been lost as he was taken down the sewer. "Nope. I left...an hour ago." he mutters out loudly, trying to move. He tries to get his knife again, hoping its easier this time now that he's not being dragged. If he gets it, he slashes the bag open. If not...he just keeps trying.

The stoats does get his knife. And does successfully slash the bag open. The jail cell is made completely out of solid rock. No windows. The only light comes from a table. Outside the cell. A lantern. And near the lantern is a open scroll. The badgers that took them are no longer there. Leaving them to their own devices. Aik grumbles as he can feel the stoat move away from him, "Get me out mate... I cant... Breath" not like it will help the entire area smells like... bad stuff.

Kentar takes loud breaths and shudders before speaking to himself quickly in his old native tongue. He grabs his knife and stands, cutting Aik free before searching for his eyepatch. He slides it back on and shakes his head. "When I get out of here, I'm killing that mouse. And don't you try to stop me." he growls before looking around to see what's there to see. "Great. We're prison. With weapons. These beasts aren't very smart, are they?" he mutters.

Aikuen Arghs as he flops out of the bag. His back hurt incredibly. He grunts as he slowly. Using the wall for support to get back to his feet. He rubs his back as he arghs, "Fine... Go ahead..." he moves over to the bars looking through, "Well. How will weapons help us... They are not here anymore" he looks at the lock. And its barrel pin pad-lock. On the other side. the otter tires to reach through the bars. But he has to big of a paw.

Kentar hums. "Maybe I can pick the lock?" he nods. "I used to be good at it." he pauses. "With a real lock pick, not a knife." he chuckles. His paw just barely fit through as he starts to try to pick it. "Although. Actually." he pulls his paw through again. "I built a prison before. On a ship. Not as good as this but..." he starts to knock on the hinges lightly. "Oh, and they'll help if they come back." he nods. "They'd die before they could realize what hit them. My knife incase you were wondering."

Aikuen chuckles as he stands back to let the stoat work on the hinges or locks, "I dont have one on me..." he then nods a bit at the weapon part, "Oh yeah..." He looks through the bar, "Well. Do it to it mate..." he pats his sword. He grunts, "This is just great..." he hums.

Kentar knocks on each hinge, listening carefully before nodding. "Well." he looks up. "When I built one, I made a mistake. If someone knew if it was weak enough, it could be lifted off its hinges. So. I could do one of two things by trying this. Dislocate both shoulders, or...break out." he looks to Aik. "Get ready to plug your ears if the first thing happens." he nods. "I sure wont be quiet about it."

Aikuen blinks at the stoat and run up, "Wait!... If you are just trying to lift it up... Let me do it mate..." He puts a paw on his shoulder, "No offense... But im stronger than you..." he nods. He is not trying to be mean. He just doesn't want the stoat hurt.

Kentar smiles a bit. "Aik. I saw how hard it was for you to get up." he nods. "I'll give it a shot. Besides. I'm younger and less breakable." he he chuckles. "Also, I've been through worse. Pulling my arms out won't kill me."

Aikuen blinks and frowns deeply. He gulps a bit and steps away, "Fine..." Obviously not happy about it. But he starts to realize. That he is not young anymore. But still, "Be careful mate..." he grumps.

Kentar nods. "Just promise me, that if I can't use my arms again after this, you'll hold your newborn for me." he grins before taking a breath. He puts both paws on the lowest part of the bars and nods. "On the count of three. One...two..."

Aikuen hums a bit at the stoat, "I will put them in your arms. Even if i have to hold your arms for you..." he then squints a bit as he gulps. The hinges refuse to budge... at first. Then gives lightly at the lift. But it weighs so much. That the stoat will have to try harder.

"Three!" Kentar grunts out as he starts to lift. And lift. When the bars give a little, he gives a lot more, the stoat's arms quivering under the stress. His legs do the same as he pulls up as hard as he can, eyes closed and teeth gritted together. "Just...a little...more!" and as he pulls even harder, he has to hold his breath, or he'll just hurt himself even more.

Aikuen grunts heavily before running over and overlapping the stoat. To add his own strength to the mix. He doesn't care anymore, "Come on mate!" And he lifts as well. And the bar quickly gives up and out of the hinge. And the otter quickly lets it go. Hopefully the stoat will too.

Kentar doesn't let go as quick and as a result, his left arm goes pop! Rather loudly. Which makes his other arm let go quickly enough, the stoat falling over and panting hard. "I told you...not to help." he growls a little but then laughs...just laughs. "No prison can hold us." he grins before coughing once. Lack of breath.

Aikuen gulps as he goes over to the stoat, "Sorry... But...You wernt..." he then blinks. The stoat is laughing? Okay. He lost it. He then smiles a bit as he says, "No... They cant... Come on... On your front..." he forces him too, "Come on... Ill help put your arm back in..." he nods a bit.

Kentar gets up slowly and shakes his head. "When we're out." he nods. "It doesn't hurt. Too much. Someone is bound to have heard that. I can still throw knives." he turns to head over to the table, taking the scroll, his arm pretty much dead at the moment.

Aikuen quickly nods as he draws his sword and looks around quickly, "Just keep it close to you mate. To your chest..." he nods as he watches him take the scroll, "Hand me that. I have a free paw" he chuckles as he says, "Come on... I think we came from... That way?" he blinks a bit.

Kentar nods and hands the scroll. "What does it say, first? I want to know why we were arrested in the first place before I leave. If I have to, I'll kill whomever did this." he nods.

Aikuen nods as he opens the scroll. On one side is a list of names. then the middle. Crime. Then on the right side sentencing. Aik reads the very top, "By order of Don Locke. These criminals, who have disturbed, or were planing to disturb. The natural heritage and culture... of our city of Illp.... Will be brought to justice using the whitehand... On this day" He read a number. He then blinks a bit and looks down at all the names, "A yellow otter of... Aikuen" he blinks, "And brown otter of Fira... Are hear by charged with halting the progress of a local tavern and will be fined..." he blinks, "of a tweelve year sentence...." he blinks, "Holy balls... No wonder this place is so clean..." he gulps.

Kentar blinks. "Really? So. Why exactly am I arrested? I'm no pregnant otter." he growls. "Twelve years?! That insane!" he shakes his head. "Put my arm back in." he says. "Because when I get out of here, I want to be able to use it to strangle that mouse."

Aikuen reads a little bit more. Farther down the page, "I don't know... Ah. Anyone seen abating..." he gulps, "Will be given the same..." he blinks, "We need to just get out of here..." he reaches over and says, "One.. Two three..." he grins the stoats arm and like a plunger. Pops it back into place, "Come on... Fira might be in danger." he doenst care about revenge. He wants to be sure Fira is safe.

Kentar huhs and yelps out with a nod. He tries to move his shoulder and grunts. "Thanks. You find Fira. I'll get my revenge." he pokes Aik in the chest quite hard. "No one, and I mean no one gets away with messing with my friends or family." he says before turning and going the wrong way...only to turn around and go the other way. "Come on!"

Aikuen gulps and says, "Okay... but... But stay out of trouble." let the stoat do his thing, "But... We are not staying long. Just... Do your business... Then get the hell out of here. They might be looking for us at the ship..." he gulps even louder at the stoat makes a wrong turn, "Come on mate!" he hurries after the stoat. Looking very apprehensive.

After an hour...or several...they've finally found away out. Its a big door. And it leads out into the streets. Kentar slowly opens the door and looks out. He blinks and then shuts it. "Aik. Please look at there and tell me what you see." he nods.

Aikuen follows the stoat. Every minute he gets more and more anxious. What if they got Fira. OH MY GOD. What if they hurt her. If they did. He will make sure not to leave one of them alive. He growls loudly before they get to the door. He snarls as he nods. Heading over to the door and the handle. He slowly open it and says what he sees, "...Wow... There... Is a lot of big looking beasts... With hoods on... all white..." he blinks as he peeks a little more, "They are everywhere... And there isnt a single other beast out... Wait... Whitehand?...." he grunts, "Those are them!" he guesses.

Kentar hums. "That's. Not good." he thinks. "I don't suppose we've got a way to get a message to Sebastian? I'm sure he'd fit right in." he thinks. "No, I didn't think so. Not like we could ask them to let us go to our ship, to contact a badger, then come right back here." he nods. "What's our plan?

Aikuen holds his paws to his lips as he heads out the door into the alley way. He looks left. Then right. Then up. He quickly enters the sewer, "Okay. I got a plan... There are some... Boxes and barrels." he smiles a bit, "Real simple... We just slip right by them..." he grins even bigger.

Kentar blinks. "Oh your not serious." he mutters. "For one, you wont even fit in a barrel. Two, my arm is in no condition to carry one while I move. And three...well. Its just a bad idea." he nods. "But if its the best you got...I say we just run for it. Make a break for the ship, yelling as loud as we can." he nods.

Aikuen hums, "I used to do it when i was back home..." but he forgot about the stoats arm. So he thinks of another, "Thats a really bad idea mate... Weneed to be sneaky... We need to..." he hums, "How well are you at roof hopping..." running a map though his head. Aye... IT could work.

Kentar hums. "That I've done before. I failed miserably. It doesn't work when the roofs are straw." he hehs. "I've got an idea. It...might work. It might not." he nods.

Aikuen hums a bit an points out, "Yes. But the roofs here are made of rock. I know. That really hurt when i landed on my head..." he rubs his head, "There is not a bit of straw in the town. I think it could work..." he then hums and looks out the door, "Alright... What is it?" he asks.

Kentar nods. "It could work. But how would we get up there in the first place." he nods. "Well. Alright. Here's my idea. We slip out into an ally, and find one of those beast that are alone. We kill it. And take its cloak. I ride on your shoulders, and we head for the ship?" he suggests.

Aikuen blinks a bit at the stoats idea, "Kill it?" he hums a bit and nods slightly, "That... That could work... And oh. The boxes and barrels... We would make a step ladder to get up... But i like your idea..." he nods more as he bends his knees and sneaks out of the door into the alley, "Come on... Keep and eye out..."

Kentar keeps a dagger in his paw as he sets out after Aik quickly, and quietly, following as he keeps his eye out for anyone noticing them.

Aikuen slowly crouches behind a barrel and then spies one. And ducks down quickly. He looks to the stoat and then mumbles, "Look...The one with the cigarette..." he motions over the barrel. There is a badger in a white hood. Leaning in the shadow of the alley way having a smoke.

Kentar nods and then aims carefully. "I can't ruin the outfit. If I do, they'll something will be up." he whispers. "Alright. Stay here and stay low." he says, taking a deep breath as he goes to creep out from behind the barrels, going to come up behind the huge beast.

Aikuen nods a bit. And before the stoat got a chance to move. Aik held him back, "I got this. Your arm is still sore...Mine on the other hand..." he winks and leaves the stoat. He creeps along the side of the building and comes up near the beast. He then places his paw in the badgers face and shoves it hard against the side of the building. Which knocks him out instantly. He waves the stoat over before muttering, "Get his cloak..." he then does something. He takes the badger head in both paws. And turns it sharply. There is a bit of a crack. As the badgers head is snapped.

Kentar blinks as he's held back. Once the deed is done, he runs after Aik. "You idiot. I was just going to stab him. Tap him on the back, he'd turn around, and a dagger would get shoved in his eye." he hums as he takes the cloak. "There was no need for you to risk your life like that." he shakes his head. "I'm not the one with a baby on the way. Stop being so damn reckless." he growls out. "Or I'll do the smart thing and get us locked in jail again." he stares at Aik's eyes. He'll do it.

Aikuen growls back, "I have done this a million times. Sides if you did. Blood would get all over the cloak... Eyes tend to burst when stabbed!... Then we would be with a bloody cloak..." he grunts, "And what if he caught you eh? With only one and half of a good arm. What chance did you have? Even with your throwing knives... Just hurry up and get the cloak..." he curses at the stoat.

Kentar stares. "Fine. But I'm telling you Aik. If it keeps you alive, I will do it." he frowns and then hands over the cloak, sliding his knife away. "Get it on, I'll keep watch." he looks around, keeping an eye out.

Aikuen snarls, "Fine. But im not getting throw in jail again. My blade will make it so, to get to Fira... Make sure she is safe..." He then quickly nods. Putting the cloak on. making sure to button up most, and hides his yellow feet. He then says, "Okay... Get on" he gets on one knee so the stoat can climb aboard.

Kentar nods and then climbs up onto Aik's shoulders with a wobble. "Alright." he says, pulling the hood down over his face, covering it mostly. "I suppose I'll have to guide you where to go?" he asks. He readies a knife incase they're spotted. "And Aik. I suggest when we're in running distance of the ship, we run like mad." he nods.

Aikuen grunts as the stoat get on. He stands up and steadies himself With the stoats regions on his back. It takes a bit but he says, "Alright. This is simple... Aye. Guide me. But don't make it too... Obvious that you are.... And if we are spotted. Try not to draw attention... OH! And no excessive hand motion. I don't think i can keep up a hand shake..." he say, "Agreed... Run like hell. But you will have to tell me if we are..." he gulps, "Okay... Here we go..." he closes the cloak around his face and... off they go.

Kentar nods. "Right." he nods slowly and takes a deep breath. He keeps his bad arm in the cloak, going to tap Aik on either side of the head as a direction to where to go. He keeps his eye out, starting to guide the otter down the path towards the harbor. If he can manage just to get close enough to yell out to Sebastian, who has watch duty tonight, he thinks they'll be safe.

Aikuen is having and odd moment here. With the stoat tapping his head which direction to go. And him blindly going where he is told. With only the the view of the white cloak in front of him. It makes him glad to have a friend like Kentar. Someone he can trust. He just hopes this works well. Most of the other white cloak beasts ignore the oddly shaped badger. Some give a few odd looks. But non give him more than a double take. They get to the stairs to the dock. And Aik slowly takes them. One at a time. Its at that moment... that another badger says, "Hey. Where is your list? I lost mine... The don will kill me if i dont show him one..." the badger gulps behind the tower of stoter.

Kentar blinks and taps Aik twice when the badger stops, signalling for him to stop. He's going to put on a dark voice, which he's good at apparently. "Here. Have mine." he says, holding out the parchment to the badger. "For some reason I have two." he says, hoping his acting is good enough and that the list is the list of names that he's got. "Excuse me. If I don't get my report in, the don will kill me as well." he says before tapping Aik to get moving.

The badger takes the list and smiles. Opening it and looking it up and down, "Ahhhh. Thanks bud. I owe you one. I think the pair i caught a few hours ago stole it... Some yellow otter and a stoat. they escaped. but they wont get far... We have the whole hand out looking for them!" he nods, "But thanks. See yah tonight! Ill make sure to buy you a beer!" he tabs his heels together before running off toward center of town. Aik sighs from underneath the cloak.

The stoat watches him leave, then kicks Aik lightly in the side for a sign to speed up. He holds his breath now, and closes his eye for a moment before opening it again, watching the docks get in closer view.

Aikuen is not a horse! But its still no reason not to hurry! Which he does he picks up the pace as he can feel the wooden dock beneath his feet. They are getting closer now. Aik mumbles, "Do you see Fira

The stoat nods and looks out. "Yeah. She's with Seb, Robin...most every one." he whispers quietly. "Look. We're close enough to the docks...on the count of three, run as fast as you can straight ahead. Seb should see us and give us help." he nods. "But don't stop walking."

Aikuen sighs with relief, "Oh thank god...Fira..." Must not get teary. MUST NOT. Aik picks up the pace. So know it looks like a wobble stick, "Aye aye sir..." he keeps on a going. Still hoping he just wont run off the dock. But he cant help but be glad. Fira is safe. And so is his kid.

Kentar waits a few more moments. "One...two...three." he jumps off Aik, taking the cloak with him, and throwing it aside. "Run!" he orders before he takes off. "SEEEEEBAAAASTIAAAAN!" the stoat yells out as loud as he possibly can. He draws a knife as he goes, ready to use it incase any badger sees him. There is a badger who sees him! Sebastian. And he's got his sword. "There! There they are!" And he jumps off the ship, landing right on the dock, without using the gangplank, landing with a thud.

Aikuen takes off as well. But it seems no other whitehand is nearby. Aik grabs a nearby rope. And with the strength and speed, he shoots up the rope. Onto the deck and embraces his love, "Oh Fira..." he then yells down to the others, "Come on!" then towards the helmsmen, "Get us out of here. Double quick!" he barks out.

And Kentar is right behind him, but he just stops at Sebastian. "Throw me." The badger blinks. "Just do it." And then the stoat is thrown into the air, rolling on the deck and standing all in one motion. "Never fear, the badgerstoat is here." he grins. Sebastian then slides his sword onto his back and hurls himself at the ship, grabbing onto the rail and pulling himself up. The gang plank wasn't used because of the badgers.

The ship yawns loudly as the sails are bloomed and the ship lurches backward with a thump. Aik runs around and cuts off all mooring lines then make sure that the badger stoat were onboard. But they are before he even looked. He then looks out over the bow. At the soon disappearing island, "I spent 25 on a book..." that he lost. He smiles a bit and sighs. Glad to be away from... Here.

Kentar sighs a little. "I spent thirty five on two cookbooks. They looked amazing." he hums. "Actually." Sebastian says, pulling out all three books, and Kentar's dropped knife. "After Fira was brought here, Robin and I went back to look for you. When we found these, we took them and came back here." he nods, handing each set to their owners.

Aikuen blinks and... well. Blinks. Not believing it. He takes the book before hugging the badger. Cause he is feeling really emotional right now, "Oh my... Thank you Seb!" he grins and was about to go to Fira when he first stops at Kentar, "Oh... And...Thank you mate... You are a true. Mate...Best that... Anyone can have..." he smiles and gives him a real. Ottery hug... Before heading off.

Kentar blinks and also hugs the badger at the books, and the return of his knife. "Thanks!" he smiles before hugging Aik back. "Aik." he smiles. "Thank you. I don't know what I would have done with two shoulders gone." he chuckles a bit.
