*The March of Ides hears Lufane approach and, curious, turns into a boy of about 11. Seeing the effect that the newcomer has on Lokie, he frowns and ages by a couple of years. He guides Lokie higher into the air, slightly out of the stranger's reach.*
Indulgent? Yes, that's how you seem.
What brings you here? What is your scheme?

*When the March of Ides turns into a boy, Autumn is thrilled. When he ages even more, Autumn's cheeks turn a darker shade of pink (but not near enough to be red). But when he and Lokie fly higher, she's not happy.*
No, come down! Don't fly away! I want you to be here!
*She has noticed Lufane now, but her eyes are drawn to the March of Ides.*
[OOC: Is there a shorter name for the March of Ides?]

*Lufane's eyes flash white with fear at the change, but then flash gold with joy and stay that way*
Oh my Gods!!! You're a changeling? How did you get here from Makri'aan? I've never actually seen one!
*He turns to Autumn*
What is wrong with you, child? You look to be the age of ten or less... and yet you wear an Elven Ring of Marriage?
*He hears the words from March of Ides and his eyes shine brighter*
A Rhymer are you?
I can rhyme too.
I know not why you're alarmed
For I mean you no harm.
Give me some time and soon
I will play you a homeland tune!
*He takes six rods from the pack on his left, sit down, cross-legged and proceeds to screw them together*

[OOC: You can shorten 'The March of Ides' to 'The March' or 'TMOI' if you don't want to type the whole name out each time!]
How did I get here? Can't you guess?
*The March flies Lokie around so that he is hovering next to Autumn, still out of the stranger's reach. The March suspects that if they land, the FLIGHT spell that he cast on Lokie will be broken, and his control over Lokie will be lost. Stretching forward, he rests his hands either side of the firedrake's head. He looks at the stranger.*
She's my betrothed. Do not distress!

*As the March gets closer, the ring Autumn's wearing starts to glow. This time, Autumn really does turn red. She turns her head slightly towards Lufane.*
Nothing's wrong with me. I'm just so happy!

*Lufane says nothing and puts the now full instrument to his lips. The tune played seems to entrance the pair and force the ring's glow to subside. Only when finished does he turn to TMOI*
Changeling, I implore you, release this girl of sorcery you command upon her. She is young! Too young by far to be betrothed. Allow her to decide of her own, free will.
[OOC: Note that Lufane's training in the Bard's College may aid him in the attempt of convincing TMOI]

[OOC: I'm taking a wild guess here at what's happened. Correct me if I'm wrong Lufane.] *When the music plays, the glow subsides. Autumn suddenly blinks and regains her senses.* Huh? W-what happened?*But the magic of the music is only temporary. When the tune finishes, the ring glows again and Autumn is back in her love trance. However, the ring seems to have been sapped of a little power, so this time she isn't blushing like a beetroot. [OOC: Thanks for telling me the effects Lufane  ]* Hey! Eight isn't actually that young, you know! *She turns to the March.* Can't you get rid of him, sir? I don't like him. |

I meant no disrespect. I am young also, merely fifteen. May I ask your name?

[OOC: I thought Lufane said before that he was 16.]
It's Autumn. Now please leave us alone!
*The ring is starting to regian its energy and Autumn is getting more agitated with Lufane's presence.*

[OOC: Did I? 16 then...]
I will leave... *he turns to TMOI* when YOU comply to my requests, Changeling

*The March has yet to realise that Autumn has been enchanted, and that the ring - which he found in the swag bag on Lokie's back without knowing its origin - is the source of that enchantment.*
She wears my ring by her own choice.
Why do you carp? Can't you rejoice?
*Meanwhile, Lokie tries to catch the stranger's eye, but finds his head being guided away by the March's hands.*

Please do something sir! Either get rid of him or we could fly off together. He's really creeping me out! And as I said earlier, I don't like scary people.
*Autumn seems desperate. She could be on the verge of crying (and it's never a good idea to get Autumn crying).*
[OOC: This'll be my last post for maybe a week or two as I'm going on holiday.]

I...*He notices Autumn's distress, his eyes flash watery blue* Very well, Autumn, I shall leave and you shall see no more of more of me.
*Lufane walks slowly around the pair in the direction of Wolfenden* Fein *He says with despair thick in his voice. He fades to nothing and leaves Autumn and the March alone. The pair hear these words* Hara Mea guide you both

[OOC: Are you sure you don't want to keep Lufane in this thread for a bit longer? Although Autumn has objected to Lufane being there, the March of Ides might want Lufane to stay, but wasn't given the chance to stop Lufane leaving. There may be more that the characters could learn from each other.]

[OOC: fair point... TMOI merely has to object and Lufane will re-appear... I would also like to reveal some of Lufane's past at this point and hopefully form friendships as he's a bit of a loner right now]
