The unfamiliar sights and sounds of Fairhaven swirled and clattered around Inaeroth. There was so much that was new and different, and everything seemed to move so fast. The windmills especially drew his gaze and held it as they spun with the wind off the waters. So enthralled was he with this strange machinery, and so hesitant the voice, that it had repeated his name three times before he noticed.
Inaro? Inaeroth looked around in puzzlement. There should be no one here that would know him by that name. Inaro! At last Inaeroths eye fell upon the source of the voice, and his jaw dropped in surprise. A small, blond-headed Tryker was looking up at him with a cocky grin. I thought that was you walking around gawking like a gnoof. Inaeroth regained control of his jaw, and his face split in a broad smile. Hi Irving. So this is where you disappeared to?
Years rolled back in Inaeroths memory; why it was almost a decade, or maybe more! The small Tryker had been even smaller then, and had seemed more so in the tall city of Yrkanis. But what he had lacked in size he made up in self-assurance and bravado. The bright blond head was often the one leading the way either into another adventure or away from pursuit through the byways of the forest capital, and always with that grin and a barbed quip to cast at whichever disgruntled townsperson was chasing the small band of children this time.
All thought of Inaeroths purpose in coming to Fairhaven was forgotten as he fell into step alongside the Tryker and they headed towards the nearest tavern. Many memories were relived and schemes schemed over mugs of ale, but to one question neither had the answer. Whatever became of Aken? The two friends looked at each other and shrugged, both thinking of the dark-haired girl that had inspired most of their youthful adventures. Her family had left Yrkanis around the same time Irvings did. Neither had heard from her since, and the circle of friends had slowly dissolved as families and fortunes went their seperate ways.
As the two talked, a sense of determination developed. They each had skills useful to the other, and Atys was ripe with opportunity... and who knows? Maybe they would be able to find some trace of Aken and the others and at least find out what had happened to them. As the last of the ale was downed a handgrip sealed the partnership as the two friends reformed the old Clan Aken-Lotus.

[OOC]
Clan Aken-Lotus was originally an AC2 guild, and members are currently scattered between a number of games. Inaeroth is the most active member on Atys, though a couple of others show up from time to time. We are, first and foremost (as you might guess from the IC
) friends. We have many different playstyles, but the common thread is that we all play to have fun. We do not actively recruit, but welcome any new friends who feel that they might fit in with the Clan. For further information, please feel free to PM or /tell Inaeroth, or have a look at our website at http://www.acplayer.com/.As far as in-game alignments go, we are currently neutral/neutral. RP is up to individuals, so semi-RP I guess.
