  7. It was a warm, sunny afternoon in the nation of Urguan when Brynaelda Grandaxe decided to start packing for her departure. She had aimlessly sat in Grudgebeard’s easy-chair after seeing him off - it was a difficult morning. She had eaten his sandwich, given as he left it behind in his hasty exit. Bryn wandered the halls of the Clan Hall district, settling on the doors of the Grandaxe Hall and tracing the red heart painted on the door. Her time as Clan Mother had not been the easiest, but it was certainly memorable. She reached for the suitcases and grumbled, “I’m not leaving my good plates behind.” Her feet shuffled reluctantly to the kitchen, packing the plates- and then unpacking them… “Well, they might need them anyway. I will just get more plates. A new adventure and all that...” Brynaelda commented to no one in particular as she stood aimlessly in the Clan Hall. Leaving felt unfathomable, but staying felt just as foreign. Bryn meandered from the Grandaxe Hall’s kitchen, lingering at the statues of the Grandaxes who lead before her, she panned upwards to blow a kiss to Dhaen’s statue and whispered in a mischievous tone, “I’ve got an ale with your name on it at the White Stag.” She grinned, guiltily peeking at the Clan Mother’s seat, a chair she had sat in twice, and then began the slow meander back towards the front door again. Brynaelda turned, she affixed a note to the pillar of the Clan Hall for her clanmates to read; nearing the front door, Bryn scratched Bucky the Cat on her way out. Her thoughts briefly drifted to clan beardlings before easing as she reminded herself that the clan has stood before her time and will continue to stand after. “Clothes, keepsakes, blankets, yarn.” She echoed aloud as she walked towards her residence, she glanced past Grudgebeard’s Stareyes banner. Brynaelda was trying not to worry about him, if their paths were meant to cross- they would cross again. In the distance, the loud cluck of a Bokolo echoed sonorously from the stables, reminding Bryn of her own path ahead. She tossed the pile of suitcases by the front door into a wagon, gathering the last few possessions, placing her lute and songbooks atop the mound and then wheeled it towards the entrance of Kal’Darakaan. She would never forget Urguan, carrying a piece of her homeland in her heart wherever she went. Likewise, as Brynaelda wheeled the wagon out of the stony gates of the city, she knew Urguan wouldn’t forget her. Despite the difficulties that she had faced, she had done more for her people and kin than most dwarves could even dream of. Elysium, like her home once upon a time, would welcome her with open arms. As Brynaelda walked into the growing dusk of evening, she left a legacy of unmatched honor and walked a path none but herself could follow. Brynaelda Grandaxe riding a bokolo, Year 33 of the Second Age. ... For the Grandaxes:
  8. Brynaelda watched Grudgebeard walk out the door, numbly staring at the exit for a few prolonged minutes before panning to her left and noticing the perfectly good sandwich he left behind. Darn it... I won't let this go to waste. Brynaelda paced aimlessly about the house, his goodbye echoing in her ears as she flipped the portrait around. "Remember, I'm not sharing anymore, love." She cracked in the empty house, boxes strewn about the abode.

  11. Fliers posted around noticeboards in Norland would carry the same scribed message, each one stamped with the same red wax seal, written in the same ink with messy scrawled writing. Surrounding these notes would be the sticky marshmallow prints of the dwarven vacationer on the parchment, each parchment nailed up shoddily.

  15. Brynaelda Grandaxe scurried through the house, juggling three gray children and loudly called, "DEAREST? Where'd we put uhm.. The smokes? Ye know, the smokes t'at Rex fella gave me? I think they're in the cabinet. Here, here. Ye take Okrikor, an' I will fetch 'em." Brynaelda passed off her chubbiest son to Grudgebeard, kissing each of them gingerly, before lighting the blunt and sitting it on the mantle respectfully. She coughed at the smoke a handful of times before mumbling, "I hope ye get lots of those uruk lassies ye were wooin', w'erever yer goin', friend."

  18. Brynaelda Grandaxe sat lazily in a seat in the clan hall, the stout and round dwarfess had clearly put on some weight since her marital festivities in the months prior. Her green gaze peeked over at the pile of work she had to sort, darted longingly to the three slices of fruit tart sitting mere inches out of her grasp, and then curiously, to the two missives that laid to her right. Intrigued, she unfolded the papers and with great interest devoured the contents of 'Hearsay of Hanseti Ruska' Edition I and Edition II. Not only did Bryn pour over the reading, kinsmen can attest that she smiled gleefully. Gossip was her favorite. Especially when the gossip had no repercussions for herself. She leaned back in her chair that released a pained creaking noise under her heft. Her expression of mirth persisted as she dragged the table closer with her foot, in effort to draw the plate of fruit tart nearer. Brynaelda beamed as she noted the names of 'Ser Alric', and 'Mariya Amador'. "I know 'em!" The Grandaxe blurted with far too much excitement, as she shoveled the slice of fruit tart messily into her mouth. Dribbles of jam clung to her wiry sideburns as she added, to no kinsman in particular, "He's t'e Squire-Leader-Lad an' she helped rescue my knittin'! ...Poor babby, I'm sure she looked lovely..." Brynaelda lamented over the criticisms of Mariya's wedding in the prior edition before peered over the two missives with adoration, as much as any average mum would be, she too was infatuated with the rumors and blatant drama festering within the writings. "I love a wee bit of romance, there's jus' so much t' take in!" Brynaelda grinned, covering her mouth with her hand as she thought to herself: For the next Squire that comes to me for a trial, I shall ask them about the author of these papers, so that I may send them some tokens of gratitude. Brynaelda nodded affirmingly to herself as she chewed on the pastry. She reached for another off of her plate, her fingers dangling mid-air in hesitation, before lifting the second triumphantly to her mouth. "One more cannae hurt..." Bryn mumbled to reassure herself of her wonderful decisions, raising her tone of voice to call out, "Somebody ought t' find my 'usband! He's nay goin' t' believe w'ot goes on in Haense!" After the wise decisions of scarfing two slices of fruit tart down in rapid succession, the Grandaxe Clan Mother hauled herself upwards as a dwarf on a mission; but her enthusiasm was stifled as a cramp settled in at her hip, prompting the woman to settle back down. She muttered under her breath, "I suppose findin' this talented fella can afford t' wait a wee bit... Nay point in rushin' an' lookin' like a crazed admirer."

  23. Brynaelda Grandaxe wept briefly, her hands briefly grazed the desk as she stood quietly in the Grandaxe Clan Hall. Her heart ached with some emptiness, memories of decades ago filled her thoughts. A friend, a mentor, a former clan mother. Her memories of Dhaen were bittersweet as she recalled her confidant. "I'll miss ye." Brynaelda's voice trembled faintly, the thick dwarven accent was almost as heavy as the air in the room. "I'll do my best, fer ye." She remarked quietly to the statue before her, a monument to Dhaen's legacy and a briefly comforting presence, despite the coldness of the stone pillar she rested her forehead against. Her eyes scanned over the plaque, her pudgy fingertips glided over Dhaen's name in contemplation, running the clan would not be any more different, but her heart surely did sink at the departure of a guiding figure. Brynaelda paced the hall with trepidation, her eyes darting up to the monuments of her predecessors: a look of longing settled on her face. It had been decades since she had taken lessons from Dhaen, but those were the lessons she cherished. A heartfelt pang broke in her chest as she straightened her posture, she walked the length of the meeting room. Bryn peeked over her shoulder before racing towards the kitchen, grasping for two mugs, filling both with her preferred beverage: Grandaxe Maple Mead, and placed one before the monument as she re-entered. "Narvak oz Dhaen, Narvak oz Grandaxe... To a beloved Queen an' an even more cherished clan sister." She eyed the gesture, feeling guilty from her selfishness in beverage choice but figured since it was just her drinking it, it was understandable... Brynaelda lifted her mug to the stone-copy of Dhaen, and then tilted it back, guzzling the mead. A flash of movement caught her eye, as Bryn peered to a blur of ginger in her peripheral vision. She reached outwards towards the figure to embrace them tightly and loudly remarked, "Thank goodness yer here, we've got work to do and we best not mope around fer too long- Dhaen would nay like that. I'm sure she'd tell me w'ot fer, when she gets back home." Brynaelda eyed the flute on the meeting table thoughtfully, grasped ahold of the instrument and mumbled a promise to uphold the song she would write for Dhaen.
