[OOC: Only the Church - Sorry Teagan if you were intending to do the Church, but it's been a month since you said you'd do them so I thought that perhaps it would be okay if I did the Church instead.]

Today, in the late morning, or pherhaps early noon....
  Even pherhaps late noon!
I woke up in pain and agony after the last days work. I was feeling a little sick, and i felt as if my head was between the hammer and the anvil. I ate my breakfeast and looked out of the window. I couldnt almost believe it.
   A beautiful day at Cove. Only some minor rain...
i finished my breakfeast outside on the porche and headed out for a walk.
  The grass tickled under my feet on my way to toothpicks, to see if Qom was there.
   Unfortunately, he wasn´t.
   Unfortunately, i saw the taskboard
   Unfortunately, the taskboard had an assignment, written my name over it...

Weed Killer!

I read it closely and went for the barracks, to clean the walls and steps of it.
As i figured out that the barracks are quite large, and my arms not as strong as they used to be, i figured out a way to ease my arms...


After distributing the poison on, well everything i could reach at all, i went to the tavern and... eeh... ate a little...
   And let the poison really kick into the walls and steps.

After i.... *coughs* Ate... i went back to the barracks to finish what i started.
   Just needed to wash away the poison with some water, dry the floors up with some blankets and polish the walls and floors so it would shine real nice.
   I hope you understand my disappointment, panic and after all stress from what was to become of me, when i got back to the barracks, after a long walk...
If i remember correctly, about twice as long as the way TO the tavern...
  Dont understand why...


I paniced, Ran around the barracks to see what damage it had done. I couldnt believe the barrel of poison really was a keg of Strength, that the old mold in the barracks would embrace to grow stronger. I have never seen this kind of mold ever before.
   And of course a guard went in to the barracks, and saw me standing around in all the filth, wondering what the heck was going on. I told him about a great infestion of mold, that had come to Cove, it was at least half true...
   Well, i quickly went back to my house and fetched me a real barrel of poison, and sprayed it on the mold and wiped it out, killing it all.
   I cleaned the barracks out, and polished the walls and floors

  Well, not to say to much, about mistakes and all, but, the barracks looks better than before...

Delsa walks up to the noticeboard and slowly reads the tasks.
"Hmmm.." she mumbles to herself whilst looking over the tasks a second time.
"I think I'll do a bit o' cleanin' ! I need a bit of experience in tha' department!"
She skips happily towards the Tavern..

*Her handwriting looks as if it has been rushed with excitement*





I decided to clean the walls of the Tavern, as I know that the guards like drinking in a clean tavern. However, I didn't realise how gigantic the Tavern actually was!
I started off my task the old-fashioned way, with a wet cloth and a bucket of water!



I've often seen little'uns sitting under the apple tree outside the Tavern, so I decided to wash down the walls around there, and scubbed at the ground too. Unfortunately, cleaning soil is pretty difficult, so I gave the walls an extra scrubbing instead!



I noticed that in the task description, it said that it would be a good idea to clean the 'outside drinking areas', so I seeked out the only drinking area there was, the balcony.


I'd finally completed my cleaning! And thankfully, it only took a little over an hour!
This seemed a little short, however. So I decided to give the windows of the Tavern a good clean, also!

Unfortunately, upon completion of cleaning the windows, a mishap occured.
I decided to sketch afterwards, as I wanted to share the fits of laughter I was in, after it had happened!

Good work Miss Wineblotch.

Those tables look clean enough to eat off.

*Heading towards the town hall, Axiana pauses to look up at the grey overcast sky!*

This may not be the day for doing this, but work must be done.

*Just as she places down her gardening tools at the step of the town hall, it begins to pour down with rain.  She hurries to seek shelter, but finds the town hall doors to be locked!  After a few minutes or so, the rain stops.  Now drenched to the skin, her hair hangs limp sticking to her face and neck.*

*Peers at the rain washed pathway*

Perhaps the rain is a blessing after all *shivers*, the path is clean at least! 

*On bended knee, she weeds around the pathway and amongst the flower beds.   She then removes the dead heads from the flowers, and using a sharp knife prunes the hedges.*

*Sneezes*

*With the aid of a stool, she is able to grab hold of a sturdy branch.  She pulls herself up into the tree then works her way up it and begins to prune the tree in preparation for following year.*

*Catches her skirt on a branch... A Riping noise can be heard.  She curses.  The stool then almost topples over as she tries to place her foot back on it on her way down.*

*She cuts back and removes the clinging Ivy from the stone walls.*

*Sneezes*

*Slips on the wet pathway, hurting her ankle"

*Peers up at the roof observing the moss on the roof.*

At least its not as high up as the Church Steeple!

*Pulls herself up onto the roof using jutting stone work walls for footing.  Clings with one hand onto the tiles as she attempts to remove the moss with the other.*

*Works her way along carefully, removing the worst of the moss.  Waves to Guardsman Perrin who appears to be trying to warn her of something*

Oh my!  A loose tiiiiileee...Aaaaaaiiie!



*Guardsman Perrin takes an unconscious Axiana to the healers*

I hope there are no broken bones Axiana.

Never rains, but it pours eh?
