Would you bow, before you leave? [Willow to Phaedra] - Phaedra - 02-10-2013
You keep your age concealed inside,
Yet many rings you wear.
But just you wait, it’s still my turn,
So hold that jealous stare.
Convincing them you’d fill their need
You were far below the bar,
With such an unoriginal friend,
Who never strays too far.
RE: Would you bow, before you leave? - Phaedra - 02-12-2013
DON'T EVERYBODY GUESS ALL AT ONCE, NOW. :p
Willow was sought.
Would you bow, before you leave?
Would = Wood, bow = bough, leave = leaf. Not a clue in the traditional sense, but some tree-references.
You keep your age concealed inside
Tree's can be aged via their rings; Willow is a Arborun (tree) Lignea
Yet many rings you wear.
At 23, Willow is quite old. Double reference to her horse-blood being of a gypsy vanner; Gypsy's traditionally wear lots of rings/jewelry, etc.
But just you wait, it’s still my turn,
From her profile, ...Willow to be very brave and bold, often causing her to act out of turn
So hold that jealous stare.
Willow has green eyes. The common association with a 'jealous stare' is green eyes (hence 'Green Eyed Monster' refers to someone who is jealous).
Convincing them you’d fill their need
You were far below the bar,
Again from her profile, Enters the Windtossed Foothills as Paladin has called together a herd meeting. Watches quietly, but speaks up in the hopes of taking the Storyteller position. Is granted it, but realizes she doesn't know about this land or the duties of the rank.
With such an unoriginal friend,
Her companion is an ermine named Ermine.
Who never strays too far.
Ermine is described as often staying within Willow's boughs, Ermine spends a lot of time in Willow's tree...

I told you that I guessed who it was in like three seconds. PASS~

Derp, excellent clue. Pretty much narrowed this to just Birch and Willow in my mind.

...Willow to be very brave and bold, often causing her to act out of turn
Excellent
So hold that jealous stare.
Willow has green eyes.
Solid clue with the envy reference.

Merr, this is one is a little stretched. I wouldn't found it as a good clue.

Excellent clue. This is was immediately parsed Willow from Birch for me.

Plus companions can't stray far anyway! Great clue again.

I think that says more about your epic-guessing skills, than my stealth writing :P

Argl! Pass!
You keep your age concealed inside,
Yet many rings you wear.
I was thinking about tree age rings the moment I saw this, excellent Lignea clue!
But just you wait, it’s still my turn,
great personality ref

great appearance ref

given the explanation, I think this makes some sense, though not 100%, but I'm not that familiar with the Windtossed herd either so I don't know how aware they were of Willow not feeling like she could do this duty. but it's a decent clue, if a bit vague.

great clues for Ermine

I PASS this stealth due to cleverness x)
Would you bow, before you leave?
Would = Wood, bow = bough, leave = leaf. Not a clue in the traditional sense, but some tree-references.
Very good clue and nice thinking with the pronunciation.
You keep your age concealed inside
Tree's can be aged via their rings; Willow is a Arborun (tree) Lignea
Since I'm not so clever with stealths, I was uncertain about this one. But it makes sense since she's half tree.
Yet many rings you wear.
At 23, Willow is quite old. Double reference to her horse-blood being of a gypsy vanner; Gypsy's traditionally wear lots of rings/jewelry, etc.
Very clever clue, maybe a longshot though?

Good personality ref.

Also a vague clue, but it makes some sense.

[i]Her companion is an ermine named Ermine.
Hehe :3 Good clue!
Who never strays too far.
Ermine is described as often staying within Willow's boughs, 'Ermine spends a lot of time in Willow's tree...'
I suck at describing why I thought it would pass.. ^^
RE: Would you bow, before you leave? [Willow to Phaedra] - Blu - 02-13-2013
For way of explanation Phaedra, because Willow was just visiting all the herd lands to talk with their healers, it'd be best to say she was ambushed returning home from the Aurora Basin (the last place she visited). Nadira was traveling with her along with some Foothills body guards (unsure as who yet, depends on who wanted to go with her), but they were all tired from the constant traveling.
Willow is big, but she's not much of a fighter, but she did have her traveling companions alongside her so it either had to be a trap laid out, just overwhelming numbers against her, or magic or something. Maybe they were stopping to rest and you ambushed idk what exact specifics regarding that you prefer.
RE: Would you bow, before you leave? [Willow to Phaedra] - Phaedra - 02-13-2013
Since it was sanctioned by the Grey, I'll check with the people and we'll go with trap + ambush by Grey members.
I'll PM you. ^^
