"Now see here mates!!!" Holly said, looking around the room. It had gotten uneasily quiet in the tavern as the flashes of lightning had passed and abated. The storm itself had been a good one but was now weakening. As the rain came down, every eye was on Holly. She looked every scarred face in the room. They all seemed to be sucked in by what had been told to them. Holly looked at Joshamee "Ye know when me ma passed out, Tia and me auntie had a time getting her back into her bed. They said she fewt like a long nine cannon." Joshamee me looked at Holly "Hahaha, sounds like yer ma was a handful Holly." Holly looked around the room again. " Aye that be true Joshamee, but they said it was the healing time that was a tryful on the unusual side. Me auntie says me ma kept whispering and talking in her exhausted state." Joshamee looked inquisitive now, eyes narrowing " Come on then spit it out Holly. N
EDIT (Apr 2, 2011 8:13 PM):
No more suspense." Holly only leaned back in her chair " According to Morgan she kept saying ' I see you, but i can't feel you, and now i am losing my mind. I see you, but i can't hear you, so now I hesitate.' " Joshmee looked at Holly " That makes sense i think lass, she probably is talking about Madmartigan. Poor lad gave all he had to save yer ma he did. No telling what Jolly would have become if it weren't for him. " Holly chuckled a little " Aye that's what me auntie says too... she said there was visit from Jolly during that time also. Mind you he didn't come in the unflesh. As Tia, would have dealt with him good and proper mates, right there and then." Joshamee sat upright now and wide eyed "Really.... as in otherworldy????" Holly looked at him back like she meant to gut him "Aye he did, like a wisp of fog on the Pantano banks he did." Holly calming a little. Joshamee looking back a little more comfortably now. " She was saying in her sleep, ' You won everything, i'm still here and now there's nothing left of me.' According to Morgan she said an apparition of Jolly appeared over Molly and spoke " 'Not everything my dear, and there is more to you than you can possibly believe.' " Now this is where Tia caught site of Jolly and waved her hands and said "BEGONE YOU CANCER!!!! LEAVE THIS PLACE!!!!! You are not welcome here!!! ' " Now Morgan says Jolly looked at Tia and laughed " Voodo Witch, your powers are considerable, your knowledge vast, but you can not order me away!!" "LEAVE!!!!!!!!" When Tia said that it was as if Jolly's mist trembled and blew out the walls of the hut. But he was laughing the whole while still. Tia looked down at Morgan and says "We need to talk Morgan, it seems there is more to this tail than meets the eye."
