Part V, Section B

Zenleigha: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~SCENE WIBBLE, Rathess V Part II ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Story Teller : Foam climbs into his armor. It's fascinating to watch--it almost flows
Maylin: *is holding her breath, listening for Alabaster's words as she half hides in the abandoned home's doorway*
Story Teller : AC (to EC): "I promised May that I would come back. I keep my promises."
Zenleigha: *climbs out of the bath, toweling off*
Dancing Ruby Wings : *sitting on the ground in an alleyway, unsure of exactly where she is......she plays around with her blade, running her hand along its side*
Endless Chase: *rubs the fresh circular cut on his chest, and nods* It seems that she gets plenty of promises lately.
Maylin: eep! *covers her mouth and ducks further into the building*
Story Teller : Alabaster looks at the scar a moment and blinks. "In...deed."
Endless Chase: In any case, she's around here somewhere.
Endless Chase: I left shortly after she.
Story Teller : A plain black cat wanders out of the tower and towards a nearby alleyway
Maylin: *Sayjin returns to the city, a bird in his mouth "I love birds, but can't they come featherless?"*
Zenleigha: *dresses again and makes her way back to the sick room to check on her patient*
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she sighs deeply, laying her head against the stone wall of the building she has sat up against...thinking to herself* ~Since when did I get so damn emotional.....I need to focus more....~ *she groans annoyed with herself, shaking
Dancing Ruby Wings : her head*
Story Teller : Elder Violet is lying on his pallet, staring at the ceiling. He blinks a bit as Foam walks in as well, then looks at Zen
Zenleigha: How are you?
Endless Chase: And now I am hungry. I am going to go find something to eat. *Points to the tower* We're staying in there, if you want to go find the others.
Maylin: *he goes to the building where he left her, setting the bird down 'Why the hells are you doing this far in there? Get out here!"*
Story Teller : "Listening to you," he says with a smile
Story Teller : ((Elder Violet))
Endless Chase: *walks off to a more jungle like area to hunt.
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes stands a moment in the middle of the street, then starts walking towards the tower
Zenleigha: *smiles wryly* i'm glad
Pathian: *engages the guardian in a conversation ranging from the opperation of first age tech, to the weather patterns of rathess*
Pathian: (and ill be back as soon as possable)
Story Teller : EV: "This is the time when I protest how well I am and how I should be able to get up, yes? I've gone through a dozen of times."
Maylin: Go away Sayjin, I'm not hungry and you'll give me away!
Zenleigha: *feels his forhead*
Zenleigha: *checks his pulse*
Zenleigha: I think i can clear you for a walk
Zenleigha: but no sparing, alright?
Story Teller : Elder Violet grins. "Well bargained and done."
Zenleigha: I try
Story Teller : He stands, slowly.
Story Teller : You can see him testing his muslces
Story Teller : *muscles
Story Teller : Maylin sees Alabaster Chimes stop and look at the tower, which currently has no visible entrance
Zenleigha: Now remember, if i catch you sparing you'll be spending time in her strapped to the bed, alright?
Maylin: *"there is something very wrong with you."*
Maylin: *glares at her familiar and points to AC* go show him
Story Teller : EV: "I understand, Zen-sama."
Zenleigha: *walks over to the nursery to check on the sleeping children by poking her head around the doorway* good
Story Teller : Foam chuckles a bit under his breath, the kneels in the corner and closes his eyes
Maylin: *SAyjin groans, but approaches AC "I'm not a pet!"*
Zenleigha: *turns ot foam* what are you laughing at?
Story Teller : The children are both sleeping peacefully. They're even holding each other's hands. Sith is watching them sleep with...well, it looks like a curious expression, but he's a lizard
Story Teller : Foam gives no reply
Zenleigha: *nods contentedly and makes her way out to the sunshine, wrapping her arms around her shawl and pulling it over her bare shoulders*
Maylin: *he looks at AC, then to the building May's trying to hide in, then back to AC*
Story Teller : Zen walks outside and almost runs smack into Alabaster Chimes, who jumps back in surprise
Zenleigha: *blinks* oh! hi!
Zenleigha: *steps back*
Story Teller : ((SULK CRY!!!))
Maylin: ((*huggles*))
Story Teller : AC: "Eaagh! Who put that door there?!"
Zenleigha: Umm, the dragon kings? *venturing a joking estimation*
Zenleigha: did i disrupt you?
Endless Chase: *wrestles with a snake nearly his size, almost playing with it before breaking it's neck just behind the head*
Maylin: *"Oh good, he knows the way, mission complete." Turns to go back to Maylin and make her eat*
Story Teller : AC: "Disrupt? That's an...odd word choice..."
Story Teller : "How are you, Zen-san?"
Zenleigha: Well, well and busy. The children keep me so, and so do the injured *Smiles wryly*
Zenleigha: Were you looking for May?
Story Teller : You can tell Alabaster Chimes is about to say something, but he holds his tongue.
Story Teller : AC: "I was looking for all of you, though I imagine Maylin is looking for me."
Zenleigha: *Smiles* then you
Zenleigha: 'll
Zenleigha: want to follow that cat *points to Sajin*
Zenleigha: he always knows where she is
Maylin: *growls "Leave me out of this woman!"*
Zenleigha: ((*is glad zen can't hear sajin because hooo my god would she sass him*))
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes turns around. "Hmm..." He starts walking after the cat
Maylin: *groans, but leads him back to the abandoned building "I hate all of you..."*
Endless Chase: *Ambles out of the jungle carrying the giant snake over his shoulder. Teeth marks are clearly visible just below the head*
Zenleigha: *walks towards the nearest tree and sits down in the shade*
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes walks towards the building
Story Teller : A black cat comes out of the alleyway and suns itself in the street
Endless Chase: Oh, hello again, Zen. *Walks over to where she is sitting and sets down his find*
Zenleigha: *leans back agains the trunk*
Zenleigha: Happy hunting was it?
Endless Chase: Yes. The snake thought it would make a meal out of me. Of course I let it wrap my legs before I started on it.
Endless Chase: I had to give it a head start.
Zenleigha: ahh yes
Zenleigha: a fair challange
Zenleigha: have you seen alaethis? i've been wanting... to ... speak with him
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes: "May?"
Maylin: Sayjin, what are you--*stops at seeing Alabaster* talking about...
Story Teller : *"May-san"
Story Teller : Cat: "Mew"
Zenleigha: ((how close is cat-alaethis to Zen?))
Maylin: *he picks up the bird "YOu two won't need this" goes to EC and spits the bird out in front of him "You take it"*
Endless Chase: Well, that black cat in the lane is looking pretty conspicuous, especially since it's the first on we've seen here in Rathess.
Story Teller : ((not that far away))
Zenleigha: *turns to look* that must be him *waves at the cat*
Endless Chase: *looks down at the bird at his feet* Um, thank's, Sayjin, though it doesn't do me too much good when someone else has killed it.
Story Teller : Cat: "Mew"
Endless Chase: *Scratches behind the caracle's ears*
Maylin: *brushes her wet curls back, only semi dry* Hi...
Zenleigha: you can talk to it?
Zenleigha: Him i mean..
Endless Chase: Not really.
Zenleigha: oh
Zenleigha: ok
Endless Chase: But he was definitly giving me the bird.
Zenleigha: true *nods, noting what had taken place*
Maylin: *"Listen when a cat brings you something dead, it means they like you damnit no take it!" Picks the bird up and drops it again in front of him*
Endless Chase: And I know he's as bright as he acts.
Maylin: now*
Zenleigha: *nods* clearly he's quite intelligent
Story Teller : AC looks at May, tilting his head a little to the side "Hello, May-san."
Endless Chase: Persistant thing.
Story Teller : Cat: "Mew"
Zenleigha: you might want to take it
Endless Chase: *Pickes up the bird and bites off the head*
Story Teller : Cat: "Cubs."
Zenleigha: ((did the cat come over?))
Story Teller : ((no, he's still sunning himself))
Maylin: How have you been?
Zenleigha: *waves at the black cat again to try and get his attention* Alaethis?
Maylin: *"I hope you were talking to them, not me"*
Endless Chase: *sits down and starts running his hand along the cat's back and tail*
Maylin: ((which cat?)
Endless Chase: *Scratching his neck occasionally*
Story Teller : The black cat gets to its feet and pads over to Zen
Story Teller : 'Mew?"
Endless Chase: ((The Caracle))
Story Teller : AC: "Busy. Very, very busy."
Zenleigha: *stands up, slightly impatiently and walks over to Alaethis, and picks him up and takes him inside* We need to talk
Maylin: *suffers it*
Story Teller : Cat: "Mew?"
Endless Chase: *Cuts off a piece of snake meat and offers it to Sayjin*
Maylin: so have I. I guess that's why it took you so long to get here.
Zenleigha: *gets inside, to her private bedroom and sets Alaethis down on the bed*
Maylin: *takes it, chewing loudly*
Zenleigha: Why did you leave so suddenly from the bath?
Story Teller : AC: "There were quite a few tasks that Walker in Darkness set for me."
Zenleigha: I was hoping to talk to you sooner ...
Story Teller : The black cat blurs and explodes outward, reforming in an instant into Alaethis' human form.
Zenleigha: *smiles*
Maylin: *toys with her hair* I'm sure you didn't have too much trouble getting them done. THe Daimyo seemed to respect you.
Zenleigha: *moves closer, her arm extended, her hand gently brushing his cheek* i've missed you
Story Teller : AC: "Fear is a better word. I don't often inspire respect."
Zenleigha: And i am afraid i was unfairly cold to you before..
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she groans, pulling herself up from the street and wiping off her pants* ....I'm being ridiculous...I can't avoid them forever...
Story Teller : Alaethis smiles slightly. "I think your concerns were valid ones."
Maylin: Well then you inspire the right kind of fear, if there is such a thing.
Zenleigha: *blushes as her eyelashes bat and her gaze heads towards the ground*
Story Teller : Alabaster blinks. "Are you afraid of me, May-san?"
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she sighs, running a hand through her hair, kicking the dirt at her feet* alright...back to civilization....
Maylin: That's not the word I would use. But I meant that he's afraid of me too...but they didn't try to kill you.
Zenleigha: *pulls herself close to alaethis, kissing him deeply*
Story Teller : Alaethis: "You weren't unfairly cold. You were worried. I was gone for eight months, where you have no idea--umph!"
Story Teller : Alaethis gets kissed. He seems a little surprised about it
Story Teller : ...not much. Just a little
Story Teller : AC: "You're right. They're afraid of us. As a whole. After they heard about what happened to Thorns, they're worried."
Zenleigha: *pulls him closer to her as she runs her fingers through his hair, and promptly leans towards the bed, causing herself to fall back on it and pulling him on top of her*
Endless Chase: So, Saijin, just how much does Maylin hate me?
Maylin: What did happen in Thorns?
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she follows her distant memories as she heads through the city, back towards her friends*
Maylin: *"She doesn't hate, she's more terrified you'll remove her of the habit of breathing really."*
Story Teller : AC: One of Mask of Winter's servants got into the city and performed a ritual to open a huge Shadowland, which allowed Mask of Winter's army to come through. The city fell in a single day."
Endless Chase: *Hears only little mewls from him*
Story Teller : Alaethis, after a moment's hesitation, responds enthusiastically
Endless Chase: Sorry, I don't really speak cat.\
Zenleigha: *and we have a mini fade to black*
Dancing Ruby Wings : *as she walks the streets, she feels guilt wash over her.....* I should talk to Zen.....
Maylin: *blinks* oh. Well that would make anyone nervous I suppose...
Maylin: *"That's okay, I don't speak buffoon."*
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she heads straight for the tower, stopping at Zen's door.....a bit nervous at what Zen's reaction will be, she takes a deep breath before pushing open the door*
Maylin: *looks at their surroundings* I'm sorry, I'm being really rude. I bet you'd like to rest...it wasn't easy for us to get here either.
Story Teller : AC: "Lookshy shouldn't worry so much about it...they have the power to defend themselves..."
Dancing Ruby Wings : Hey Zen....I just wa-
Zenleigha: *pulls herself up from under a sheet* Ruby!
Maylin: *sighs* I guess they won't need us then, will they. So much for going back to civilization for me.
Story Teller : Alaethis turns. His tongue flicks out from his mouth once, hissing in the air.
Dancing Ruby Wings : *blinks*
Zenleigha: *pulls herself off the bed, wrapping the sheet around herself*
Zenleigha: It's not what you think...
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she averts her eyes* no....i....understand....
Zenleigha: No ruby... *reaches out to her friend and touches her shoulder*
Zenleigha: You don't understand...
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she flinches*
Zenleigha: He choose you. I was just saying goodbye
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes: "I...can handle myself in the wild, May-san. And Daimyo seems more willing to consider an alliance with Anathema of honor than he was previously."
Zenleigha: *turns and leaves the room as quickly as she possibly can*
Dancing Ruby Wings : *blink*
Dancing Ruby Wings : *looks up slowly at the door as it closes*
Story Teller : Alaethis looks after Zen, his eyes the slitted green of a snake, as she leaves
Maylin: Um, come on, the tower's more comfortable than here. *hesitates to move since that would mean passing by him*
Zenleigha: *thankful she has an extra set of clothes in the nursery*
Zenleigha: *clothes herself, leaving the extra sheet lying in a corner*
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she glances briefly over at Alaethis, her cheeks clearly burning as bright as her eyes*
Maylin: "of honor"? What's that mean?
Dancing Ruby Wings : I-I'll let you get dressed....*she reaches for the door*
Endless Chase: So, shall we go find your mistress then, Sayjin?
Zenleigha: *drys her buring cheeks, and composes herself*
Maylin: *"Sure, this should be humorous" leads him right to her*
Endless Chase: *Picks up his kill and follows*
Story Teller : ((I missed everything after "new clothes"
Zenleigha: "*Zenleigha (10:15:04 PM): *clothes herself, leaving the extra sheet lying in a corner* "
Zenleigha: "*Dancing Ruby Wings (10:15:07 PM): *she glances briefly over at Alaethis, her cheeks clearly burning as bright as her eyes*"
Zenleigha: "*Maylin (10:15:12 PM): "of honor"? What's that mean?*Dancing Ruby Wings (10:16:48 PM): I-I'll let you get dressed....*she reaches for the door*"
Zenleigha: "*Endless Chase (10:16:52 PM): So, shall we go find your mistress then, Sayjin?*Zenleigha (10:16:57 PM): *drys her buring cheeks, and composes herself* "
Maylin: *Maylin: "of honor"? What's that mean?
Zenleigha: "angrlbab1 (10:17:19 PM): *"Sure, this should be humorous" leads him right to her**Endless Chase (10:17:52 PM): *Picks up his kill and follows*"
Story Teller : Alaethis looks up at Ruby. Parts of his skin shift into scales, then back again, seemingly at random
Story Teller : Alaethis: "No, Ruby-chan. Stay here."
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she drops her hand, nodding* o-okay...
Story Teller : AC: "It means that you'll have to prove yourself to them, but they're willing to listen. I don't know what the Daimyo told his staff, but they're willing."
Story Teller : Alaethis: "Tell me."
Maylin: *sighs* prove ourselves. Great. At least we have a while to figure out what that means
Maylin: *Sayjin sits right outside the entrance*
Endless Chase: *as he walks around the corner* What was that about proving ourselves?
Story Teller : AC: "Proving yourselves, Chase-san. Proving that you are not Anathema, but men...and women...of honor."
Maylin: *gasps again and steps back and away from EC*
Dancing Ruby Wings : T-Tell you what?
Endless Chase: *indicates to the snake across his shoulders* Ah. Well, I've caught dinner for all. I'm going to go start a fire by the entrance to the tower and get some of this cooking.
Endless Chase: It should be done in half an hour.
Story Teller : Alaethis frowns a bit. He visibly takes a breath, and the scales rippingly across him slowly die off
Story Teller : Alaethis: "Sit down."
Dancing Ruby Wings : *nods, sits on the edge of the bed*
Maylin: Um, thanks...Endless Chase...
Endless Chase: *nods to her, then to Alabaster Chimes*
Endless Chase: *And leaves, setting off towards the tower*
Maylin: So, you're close with Walker, yes?
Story Teller : Alaethis turns to look at Ruby with his snake eyes
Story Teller : AC: "I am his foremost servant."
Story Teller : Alaethis: "Tell me. What you think."
Maylin: Then he would tell you everything he planned, wouldn't he?
Story Teller : AC: "No."
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes' eyes narrow a little bit. "Why...do you ask?"
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she blinks a few times* I dont know what to think....I was just going to talk to Zen.....I felt guilty for upsetting her and being selfish....I didnt know you were here....I'm sorry....But when she left I felt so relieved.....
Maylin: *looks down and sighs* of course not *looks back at him* I was hoping that if he did, I would be able to prove someone wrong.
Zenleigha: *pulls Onyx onto her lap, rocking her*
Story Teller : Alaethis: "Yes...she has made her choice."
Story Teller : Onyx: "zzzzzzzzzz"
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she looks up at him* Make that bad feeling go away....Show me that I'm doing the right thing....
Story Teller : Alaethis smiles slightly, his tongue playing over his fangs. "Gladly, Ruby-chan. Gladly..." He reaches out a hand towards her, staring into her eyes with his own.
Maylin: But it will have to wait until time decides to tell us, I suppose.
Story Teller : AC: 'What...was it?"
Story Teller : ((what...did...I...miss...))
Zenleigha: ((nadda))
Story Teller : ((*Kills Skynet*))
Maylin: *unconcousily toys with her hair* it was something I truly hope is a lie...but it's pointless to talk about it *can't meet his eyes anymore*
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she crawls towards him, her gaze never leaving his, until she presses her lips against his, slightly hesitant at first*
Story Teller : AC: "You can tell me, May-san..."
Story Teller : Alaethis' mouth has a odd sensation--it's cooler than you would expect, but in the jungle heat of Rathess, the coolness is pleasant
Maylin: *sighs and looks at him* wewerewarnedthatthereisapossibiltythatWalkerisgoingtobet raytheDaymioandteamupwithMasktotakeoverLookshyasw ell!
Story Teller : AC: "..."
Dancing Ruby Wings : *as she finally begins to relax, she falls into his embrace, her kiss forceful and demanding*
Story Teller : Alaethis responds in full measure to Ruby's kissing...and fade to black
Maylin: I'm sorry...none of us think that you would do that...and I was really hoping you could prove me wrong so I could throw it in Alaethis's face that I can choose my friends wisely
Dancing Ruby Wings : [chika chika bow wow]
Zenleigha: ((oooie baby))
Story Teller : AC: "If Walker in Darkness were planning that, he would have told me."
Maylin: *Sayjin begins cat-laughing outside, then covers it up be acting like it's a hair ball*
Dancing Ruby Wings : [Hedonist at work baby]
Zenleigha: ((LOL))
Endless Chase: ((Like he told you that your power came from a corrupted solar essence shard?))
Maylin: ((on Zen's bed jilly!))
Zenleigha: (( i know))
Dancing Ruby Wings : [Rubys shall try her best to keep in clean ;-)]
Dancing Ruby Wings : [*falls over laughing*]
Maylin: And, is her?
Maylin: he*
Story Teller : ((Remember. Alaethis can shapeshift in lots of fun and interesting ways))
Zenleigha: *peers into the sick room*
Dancing Ruby Wings : [*purrs* ;-)]
Story Teller : Elder Violet is gone, presumably on his walk. Foam, however, is staring into space..his eyes glazed over, his head thrown back and a look of ecstasy on his face.
Maylin: I'm sorry, of course you couldn't tell me, maybe I should go see if Endless Chase needs help *looks suddenly very flustered*
Zenleigha: *arches a brow* Foam?
Story Teller : AC: "No...he is not."
Story Teller : Foam opens his eyes slightly. "Can you feel it?"
Zenleigha: feel what ? *puts her child down and walks over*
Maylin: *breathes a sigh of relief and sits down hard on the ground* thank...thank...whoever is listening to me right now...
Story Teller : Foam smiles. It looks like he's drinking something
Zenleigha: Foam....
Maylin: (ahh! feeding off emotions!)
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes: "Is that what you've been worrying about?"
Dancing Ruby Wings : [dirtydirtydirty]
Maylin: mostly, yes...and I feel absolutly awful for even thinking it! I hope you can forgive me...
Zenleigha: *wrinkles her brow*
Zenleigha: are you quite done yet?
Story Teller : Foam wipes his mouth. You see little bits of sparklies fall and vanish into the air
Story Teller : "Quite"
Zenleigha: Thankyou
Story Teller : AC: "Of course, May-san."
Story Teller : Foam: "Do my...eating habits disturb you?"
Zenleigha: No. But it is more polite to ask before gorging yourself with such a feast
Maylin: *looks at him, shocked* oh...thank you.
Story Teller : Foam: "It was just...there. They wouldn't miss it."
Zenleigha: you miss the point. they might not miss it, but they'd probably like to know they're missing it. i don't think they'd take well to being taken advantage of without their concent
Story Teller : Foam blinks a moment, then he shakes his head.
Maylin: I guess I seem pretty silly now, don't I?
Story Teller : AC: "No. It was a valid worry. Like I said, I usually do not inspire good wishes in people."
Zenleigha: I mean, I personally don't mind as long as you don't drain me dry. After all at least I know what it is your doing
Zenleigha: *crosses her arms over her chest*
Maylin: I haven't been afraid of you, not since after you first came in the store...
Endless Chase: *finishes with the snake cooking*
Dancing Ruby Wings : [*withholds evil comment*]
Maylin: ((bad ashy!)
Endless Chase: *Enters the tower in search of the others* Dinner is on, everybody!
Story Teller : Foam: "I find that odd, Zen-san. Very, very few Fixed Ones enjoy being tasted...and those that do are usually ostracised."
Story Teller : There are...sounds...coming from Zen's room
Zenleigha: I do not enjoy it, persay. I tolerate it because I am sure it is bound to happen with or without my concent
Story Teller : AC: "I'm honored I did not think I made a positive impression."
Story Teller : Foam: "' I am a poor man who would live.' " It sounds like he's quoting something, but you aren't sure what
Endless Chase: *ounds on the door a bit and shouts* Hey Zen, put away the sorcery stuff and come get some dinner. Fresh Snake! I even cooked it for everyone else.
Maylin: *her throat tightens and she emits a tiny sound like a squeak, only more pathetic*
Endless Chase: ((*pounds))
Zenleigha: And I'm a simple woman asking for you to be congincant of the needs of you companions, as well as your own
Zenleigha: Besides the damage is done, you can't very well give it back
Zenleigha: I'll be out in a little bit
Zenleigha: *calls out to EC*
Story Teller : Foam blinks. It's hard to tell, but it looks like he has no clue what you're talking about. There's some fundamental concept he doesn't understand
Story Teller : AC: "May-san?"
Maylin: *clears her throat* I'm sorry, I'm being very rude...we should probably get back to the tower to make you comfortable..I mean to get comfortable-g'ah! I mean, I'm sure the snake is ready now.
Endless Chase: Allright, let Ruby know if you see her.
Story Teller : AC: "Snake?" His nose twitches. "Of...course."
Endless Chase: *Saunters back outside to the snake and cuts it into circular slices, then peels the skin and scaled off*
Zenleigha: *wrinkles her brow*
Maylin: *leads him to the tower, her cheeks pink*
Zenleigha: You would be offended if i took a piece of your armor for myself with out asking yes?
Maylin: *Sayjin is nearly falling over in laughter as he follows them*
Story Teller : Foam: "Yes/
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes follows as well
Zenleigha: Well, by feeding off of them without asking, that is what you're doing to them. You are taking a part of them and keeping it for yourself
Story Teller : Foam: "Yes."
Endless Chase: The food is ready. *hold up a few pieces for Alabaster Chimes and MAylin*
Maylin: *appraoches EC* thanks...
Zenleigha: So you see why I would ask you to not do it without concent?
Story Teller : Foam: "No."
Zenleigha: Why not?
Maylin: *her cheeks still slightly pinkish*
Zenleigha: *huffs in frustration*
Story Teller : Foam: "There's no way to compare armor with dreams."
Zenleigha: Yes there is
Zenleigha: they are both meaningful to those to whom they belong
Story Teller : Foam's expression doesn't change
Endless Chase: Care for a piece, Alabaster Chimes?
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes takes the piece of meat. "Thank you, Chase-san." He looks at it a moment. "How...do I eat it?"
Story Teller : Foam: "Are they?"
Zenleigha: yes, they are
Endless Chase: *Looks at him with a puzzled expression*
Endless Chase: You put it in your mouth, bite off a piece and chew
Story Teller : AC: "Ah." He does so...chewing rather slowly.
Story Teller : Foam: "Very well." It seems like he's only agreeing to shut you up
Maylin: *smiles slightly* quickly...*eats hers more delicatly than she normally does*
Zenleigha: *skews her mouth* thank you
Maylin: *"I bet your past husband would kill to see this!" is still making cat laughs*
Story Teller : ((he is, at least, agreeing with you))
Endless Chase: HAve as much as you want. I drank my shair allready.
Zenleigha: *leaves him to walk outside*
Story Teller : AC: "It's...interesting..."
Maylin: *Maylin's cheeks turn bright red and she looks around even thought she knows they can't hear him*
Story Teller : The sun is setting outside, shining through the towers of glass. It's quite beautiful
Zenleigha: *sighs, slightly, and puts a smile on her face as she heads towards the fire*
Endless Chase: *Sits down a short ways and picks up some dirt*
Zenleigha: What did you say was for dinner EC?
Endless Chase: It's fresh snake.
Maylin: Snake, have the rest of mine...my stomachs in knots
Zenleigha: Sounds good, *sits herself down and takes a hunk of meat, nibbling*
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes finishes off his piece
Maylin: *offers the last half of her piece to Zen*
Zenleigha: *takes it, folding it in a leaf*
Maylin: *cheeks still pink from Sayjin's comment*
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she curls up against his form, one of her arms draped over his chest* ....thank you
Story Teller : Alaethis: "You're welcome, Ruby-chan." He slowly strokes Ruby's hair.
Endless Chase: *takes the dirt in his hand and grinds it into the cut on his chest*
Maylin: Zen, do you still have those herbs that help people sleep?
Zenleigha: Sure May
Zenleigha: do you want it in a tea?
Zenleigha: i was just about to go make myself one?
Maylin: good , I'll go get them*goes into the tower to get them*
Endless Chase: Ow...
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she reaches her face up to kiss him softly before she sits up slowly, she turns to gaze down at him* ....shall we join the others? I must admit, I'm a bit hungry...
Maylin: *goes up to Zen's room and opens the door* There is something very very wrong with you, May--he probably doesn't even know!
Zenleigha: ((hahaha))
Story Teller : Alaethis savors the kiss, then grins. "Still hungry, are you?"
Story Teller : ...and the door opens
Dancing Ruby Wings : *turns her head at the noise*
Maylin: *sees Ruby and Alaethis* Whow! Oh Gods! I'm sorry! *jumps out of the room*
Maylin: *slams the door behind her, face bright red now* why me...?
Dancing Ruby Wings : *blinks....starts laughing*
Story Teller : Alaethis grins widely and licks his fangs.
Story Teller : "I have been waiting a long time for that. A long, long time."
Maylin: Um, Ruby...I know you're busy but Zen and I need that sleeping herb, do you mind?
Zenleigha: *walks up next to May*
Zenleigha: I actually need my whole kit... I'll grab it
Maylin: *jumps and screams at Zen's entrance* don't do that!
Zenleigha: No, it's ok
Zenleigha: I know may
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she grins down at him slyly* Was it worth the wait?
Maylin: *takes a deep breath* sorry...sorry...I really need that tea...I'll get water boiling...
Zenleigha: *nods*
Story Teller : "Consumately. All of it."
Zenleigha: *walks into the room, nods slightly and grabs her shawl, her bag of herbs and leaves down the back stairs*
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she lays down on his chest contently* You have no idea how happy that makes me...
Endless Chase: *Keeps grinding dirt into the cut, trying to block out the jumble of crazy emotions and thoughts coursing through his head*
Maylin: *goes back downstairs to get water boiling, her hands shaking*
Zenleigha: *walks up behind may from the back entrance of the sick room*
Zenleigha: I have the herbs
Story Teller : "No. I understand," Alaethis says. He leans down and kisses Ruby's forehead.
Maylin: Thank the gods...why didn't you tell me, Zen?
Zenleigha: Because .... It was not for me to say
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she yawns slightly*....on second thought...im exhausted....i havent been able to sleep well for days....*she looks up at him* Stay with me for awhile?
Zenleigha: and i thought they would've been dressed by now
Maylin: Not for you to say! They're in YOUR bed!
Zenleigha: *furrows her brow for a moment*
Zenleigha: I know
Zenleigha: I left them there
Story Teller : Alaethis: "Of course. Would you like me as I am, or do you want a warm coat of fur for cuddling?"
Maylin: You could have at least warned me!
Zenleigha: *starts pulling of various types of herbs out*
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she giggles, smiling warmly* As long as you hold me, it doesn't matter
Zenleigha: I'm sorry May
Zenleigha: you're right
Endless Chase: Aaaarrrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhhh!!!!!!!*Squeezes the sides of his head, screaming*
Maylin: *rubs her forehead* I need to sleep...I need to--*looks at EC*
Story Teller : Alaethis smiles and lays down, wrapping his arms around Ruby
Maylin: are you all right?
Endless Chase: You and Ruby and Alaethins...both of you! It's all so damn crazy!
Dancing Ruby Wings : *she snuggles up against him, her breath falling in the crook of his neck, as she drifts to sleep*
Maylin: well it will settle down now
Story Teller : ((KAWAII!!!!))
Dancing Ruby Wings : [awwwww]
Zenleigha: *poors the hot water over both cups and lets them steep, taking her own with her*
Zenleigha: I think i will go for a walk May, i need some alone time
Dancing Ruby Wings : [and im done for the night folks....im about to get picked up ;-)
Dancing Ruby Wings : ]
Dancing Ruby Wings : [ill keep this open so i can read the rest later, Ruby is asleep for the rest of the session]
Maylin: *nods and picks up her cup, blowing on it to cool it down*
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes kneels on the ground looking up at the top of the tower.
Maylin: What are you looking at Alabaster Chimes?
Story Teller : AC: "I've never seen anything so tall."
Endless Chase: *hits the side of his head* Oh gods...I need to get away from all of this!
Maylin: want some tea, Endless Chase?
Maylin: *looks back at Alabaster* never?
Story Teller : "Never."
Endless Chase: *Looks at her, his face contorted into a combination of anger and confusion* Tea!
Endless Chase: I need silence!
Story Teller : ((the tower is over half a mile high))
Maylin: *is immediatly silent, almost cowering away from him*
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes looks over at EC: "Silence?"
Endless Chase: How would you like it if you had to know that someone you though you might love was sleeping with your mentor?
Endless Chase: And that one of your friends was with him too just before it!
Maylin: I 'm sorry, Endless Chase I didn't mean anything by it...
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes blinks once, but says nothing
Endless Chase: I keep trying to shut it out, but it just isn;t working!
Maylin: *sets her tea down and goes to him, kneeling and touching his shoulder gently* hey, maybe you need to embrass it...accept it...
Endless Chase: At least pathin usually draws a blank!
Story Teller : ((That's because he's a NINJA!))
Maylin: you could be dealing with my emotions too...
Maylin: if that makes things easier...and you didn't walk in on them
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes blinks. He is very confused
Endless Chase: This bond is so much more than I bargained with!
Endless Chase: *bargained for
Maylin: then you should be glad I've always said no *goes and brings him her tea* here, maybe it will help a little
Endless Chase: *He doesn't take the cup*
Maylin: *takes his hand to make him take it* just a few sips to calm your nerves?
Endless Chase: *Downs the cup in one drink
Maylin: you'll feel better in a moment *takes the cup back and leaves him alone*
Story Teller : AC, prudently, watches the moon rise
Endless Chase: *shakes his head and pulls out his notebook and quill from his robes*
Maylin: *goes to AC* sorry about that...Alaethis and Ruby have finally decided to be together, at last.
Endless Chase: *scribbles feircely*
Maylin: *sits next to him, her voice dropping to a whisper* Ruby was supposed to be Endless Chase's wife, but they broke it off...seems he had hopes...
Story Teller : The quill writes perfectly.
Maylin: *blushes* sorry, I'm gossiping...i thought you'd want to be updated
Story Teller : Alabaster frowns. "I...see," he says softly.
Story Teller : "No, I understand."
Maylin: is something wrong?
Story Teller : "I have wondered what such a life would be like, occasionally."
Maylin: such a life? You mean being like us?
Story Teller : He stares at the rising moon. "I have had...dreams."
Maylin: dreams? i didn't know you could...
Story Teller : "No?" He smiles. "I am not so different as you think."
Maylin: I'd actually hoped you weren't
Story Teller : Alabaster raises an eyebrow
Maylin: *looks up at the sky* The night has a thousand days/ and the day has but one...*smiles to herself*
Maylin: *looks back at him* sorry, something I heard in Great Forks.
Maylin: did you want to talk about your dreams?
Story Teller : "What did you want to know?"
Maylin: I will know as much as you want to tell me
Story Teller : "They're not just dreams..." His voice trails off.
Maylin: memories?
Story Teller : He nods slowly
Maylin: *looks at him knowingly* we've had those too. Past life.
Story Teller : "It's odd. It's me, but not me..."
Maylin: *nods in understanding, but is quiet*
Zenleigha: *wanders out in the twilight, stopping to listen to the night and sipping her tea*
Story Teller : "I'm Maenin. The world was much different than it was now..."
Zenleigha: *her thoughts are lonely... and confused... and yet strikingly precise*
Maylin: we were in charge...of everything
Maylin: and you were in charge of us...
Story Teller : Alabaster nods. "And even then, there was slavery, and want. Even in a time of such splendor..."
Maylin: and people like me simply shrugged and said that's the way things went
Zenleigha: *sighs heavily as she suddenly wishes for some sort of company*
Endless Chase: *He drops the notebook on the ground, the quill in the pages that he had just written*
Endless Chase: Zen....I'm going to go find Zen...
Maylin: good luck
Endless Chase: *Absently leaves the notebook behind ((Wink Wink))*
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes doesn't look up. "And in the early dreams, I'm a good ruler. But as time goes on..."
Maylin: Corruption?
Story Teller : "And worse."
Maylin: worse? What do you mean worse?
Zenleigha: *slumps agains the tree trunk*
Endless Chase: Zen...we...we need to talk.
Zenleigha: *looks up suddenly, her hands shaking* Chase?
Zenleigha: oh.... you startled me
Zenleigha: how did you know .... ? oh... thats right *looks at her palm*
Endless Chase: Sorry...*he rubs the side of his head*
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes shakes his head. "It's nothing I haven't seen now. I am who I am."
Zenleigha: its ok
Zenleigha: i'm glad you came *smiles weakly*
Endless Chase: http://exalted.xi.co.nz/wiki/wiki.pl?EndlessChase/HD3.30.04
Maylin: You can tell me, Chimes-kun
Zenleigha: what did you want to talk about?
Maylin: *realizes what she just said* I am so srry! i don't where that came from...
Endless Chase: Do you think...
Story Teller : AC blinks sharply. "...kun? I..." He seems at a loss for words..
Pathian: *ends his hours of contemplation with the voice at the top of the tower*
Endless Chase: That it's about time we did something about...Nine Lives?
Zenleigha: *motions for him to sit next to her*
Story Teller : "...then the Zenith walked out of the bar." Laughter resounds in your mind.
Pathian: *stretches and cracks various joints*
Zenleigha: Its about time we should do a lot of things, Chase-kun
Endless Chase: *He sits down, and leans his head on her shoulder*
Zenleigha: *strokes his hair*
Maylin: *stands* I'm sorry...that was very rude of me...*goes to bank the fire and notices the journal* Chase...*goes to pick it up, then begins reading*
Endless Chase: I think I'm going insane.
Zenleigha: Why?
Endless Chase: Because of you.
Endless Chase: And Ruby.
Endless Chase: And Alaethis.
Zenleigha: Oh...that.....
Zenleigha: *stiffens a little*
Zenleigha: I suppose you deserve an explination
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes watches May, but says nothing.
Zenleigha: I have been..... I mean... I was .... Alaethis' lover for a while now
Endless Chase: I don't think that yoy knew, but everything that has been happening with you and ruby has been echoing through my mind.
Endless Chase: I know that.
Zenleigha: and now.... I have given him up
Zenleigha: it is for the best
Maylin: *scowls, then closes the book and sets it back on the grass*
Zenleigha: He is free to follow whatever path his heart leads him on
Maylin: *she looks at Alabaster* Ignore what I said...it was rude of me...
Zenleigha: *lowers her head to blink away a small tear*
Story Teller : "No...it's okay...May-chan."
Pathian: *offers the (spirit? mini god? whatever:-P) at the top of the tower a gift of essence to repay him for the time spent in talking
Story Teller : Alabaster looks up. He has a small smile on his face
Endless Chase: Gha!
Zenleigha: ((welcome back walgren))
Zenleigha: What is it? Have I upset you?
Endless Chase: I don't want to be a part of this, but what am I supposed to do about it?
Pathian: (ive been back for a while, i needed time to read :-P)
Zenleigha: *sits up straighter*
Zenleigha: ((ahh yess))
Endless Chase: It's there, still in my head.
Maylin: please...don't...It's already hard enough.
Endless Chase: Is everything with Ruby supposed to feel fine? Should I feel hurt?
Zenleigha: You still love her,no?
Story Teller : "Thank you, Pathian-keina. Thank you very much."
Endless Chase: Or should I just be stoic and let everything happen the way it will?
Pathian: *leaves the tower and joins the people on the ground
Endless Chase: I...
Story Teller : Alabaster's smile slowly fades.
Maylin: I guess I should explain
Endless Chase: *He punches the trunk of the tree, cracking the wood and splitting his knuckles*
Endless Chase: I don't know.
Zenleigha: *shudders a little*
Zenleigha: Well, things are best left to follow their natural course.
Maylin: WHen I was leaving to get to Great Forks, I wandered into the Wyld a little and was hit with...well we think it must have been a vision
Zenleigha: If you mess with things too much you might just find yourself in more trouble than you began with
Maylin: I saw myself married to the Daimyo...and I don't need to tell you what that would mean if I pulled something like that off. A haven...a place where we can finally start new.
Endless Chase: *He unties the leather cord around his arm and takes off the moonsilver ring that has been tied to it*
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes listens, silently
Zenleigha: You should keep that
Zenleigha: you never may know when you might need it *sips her tea*
Maylin: I would like to, Chimes-kun...you don't know how much I would like to but...*just shuts up and wipes away the tears on her cheeks* I've had the memories since Nexus...
Story Teller : ((Pathian: you see Maylin and Alabaster Chimes talking))
Endless Chase: Hah!
Zenleigha: Moonsilver is valueable, sentiment aside
Zenleigha: and besides, you two may move on
Pathian: ...
Zenleigha: too
Pathian: oh
Pathian: hi there
Endless Chase: Then you can take it.
Pathian: when did you get back?
Zenleigha: *turns to him*
Endless Chase: *drops the ring to the ground*
Zenleigha: are you sure?
Maylin: *looks up at Pathian* hi...didn't see you there...
Endless Chase: It came from Alaethis. It was meant for me to give to Ruby.
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes, in the middle of opening his mouth to talk to May, turns.
Zenleigha: *nods*
Endless Chase: I want nothing to do with it.
Story Teller : "...good evening...Pathian-san."
Story Teller : ((he says))
Endless Chase: Take it for its value, then.
Zenleigha: *takes the ring up and ties it onto her thong on her neck*
Pathian: and a good evening to you alabaster chimes(insert appropriate ending here)
Endless Chase: *He continues to hold the leather cord in his hand*
Endless Chase: I made this, and another, from my own flesh...
Endless Chase: I gave the other to Alaethis.
Endless Chase: And he gave me this...
Zenleigha: *nods*
Endless Chase: *He takes the small jar of ointment from his robe*
Zenleigha: what is it?
Endless Chase: You can have this too. It's medicine.
Zenleigha: oh?
Endless Chase: It cures almost anything.
Maylin: you're late for snake...but I think Sayjin brought back a bird if you're hungry...
Zenleigha: *nods, tucking the jar away safely*
Zenleigha: ((actually theres snake wrapped up in a leaf))
Endless Chase: I don't need it.
Zenleigha: *nods*
Maylin: ((oh yeah!))
Zenleigha: Chase-kun?
Maylin: Or, Zen wrapped snake in leaves...
Endless Chase: Poisons don't work well on me, and I have yet to get sick or infected since my Exaltation.
Pathian: *munchies*
Endless Chase: Zen-chan?
Zenleigha: Do you think I made the right choice?
Zenleigha: or do you hate me for leading ruby to him?
Endless Chase: I...I don't hate you.
Endless Chase: I don't hate anyone, really.
Zenleigha: *nods*
Maylin: Where have you been all evening, Pathien?
Pathian: talking to the (spirit? god? whatever) at the top of this tower
Endless Chase: It didn't take much leading, from what my mind felt earlier.
Zenleigha: *nods, sighing*
Story Teller : ((god))
Endless Chase: She seemed to finally find some comfort with him.
Zenleigha: I know
Zenleigha: its why i had to let him go
Zenleigha: I could sense it with him too
Maylin: oh, I see...there's a god up there?
Endless Chase: I think...I think it's time I severd myself from them.
Zenleigha: and, out of a strange sense of pride... i could never be second...
Endless Chase: Ruby and I have allready done this.
Pathian: yeah
Pathian: he is guarding a bunch of first age tech
Endless Chase: *He squeezes the leather cord until it creaks*
Maylin: his name isn't Han-Tha is it?
Endless Chase: And I do not need anything from Alaethis any longer.
Pathian: no
Zenleigha: *nods*
Pathian: its (insert god's name here)
Story Teller : ((Relzya))
Endless Chase: *He grips the cord in both hands, and pulls, snapping the weave cleanly*
Maylin: *breathes a sigh of relief* Wait, did you say first age?
Pathian: Relzya
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes perks up a bit too at the mention of "First AGe"
Zenleigha: *shes thinking about something... clearly theres something she's not quite saying. but then its very gaurded*
Pathian: (bah, i just found it )
Pathian: yeah
Pathian: you want to see it?
Endless Chase: I can feel you puzzeling through something, something that you almost want to share, Zen. You can tell me, if you want.
Maylin: would, I mean, is it possible? *looks at Alabaster*
Zenleigha: *wrinkles her brow, finishing off her tea* Ask me at the next moon
Zenleigha: If i have something to share, it will be then
Pathian: sure, we can take the platform most of the way there
Endless Chase: I think I know what you mean.
Endless Chase: You think that Alaethis has...left you something?
Zenleigha: *nods*
Zenleigha: It's possible
Maylin: are you friendly with it? I mean...first age technology would be a great boon to us in Lookshy
Pathian: (FORNICATORS)
Zenleigha: ((yup))
Endless Chase: That's something else I must think about.
Zenleigha: oh?
Pathian: i dont think it is willing to give up the technology just yet, it is waiting for the return of rathess to glory or something like that
Endless Chase: We Lunars can breed strong children.
Endless Chase: Alaethis has told me how.
Pathian: (SPIDER BABIES)
Endless Chase: Perhaps I should think about doing so too.
Pathian: (bursting forth from your WOUMB)
Zenleigha: ah, like the lizard men
Maylin: The peace talks are tomorrow...maybe that will be enough... *looks at Alabaster* come see
Endless Chase: The Snake-kin, yes.
Zenleigha: *nods*
Story Teller : Alabaster nods and rises. "I know a little about First Age Technology..."
Maylin: SHow us, Pathian, please?
Pathian: sure
Endless Chase: What would Spider-kin look like?
Pathian: *leads them to the platform, and from there to the roof*
Maylin: (I'm sure Zen would offer to find out!))
Zenleigha: I .... do not know... *shivers a little*
Endless Chase: I do not even know if they would be like children, or like animals.
Endless Chase: Like...property.
Zenleigha: *nods*
Maylin: *follows* how did you find it?
Pathian: i like roofs
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes follows as well, blinking occasionally when he sees the Dragon Kings
Pathian: so i went looking for the roof access
Maylin: It's okay *smiles to him* they're really rather friendly...and have a wonderful bath...
Endless Chase: Zen...
Zenleigha: Yes?
Endless Chase: I think I need to speak with Alaethis.
Endless Chase: Will you wait for me here?
Zenleigha: Alright....
Zenleigha: I will be here
Endless Chase: I'll be back shortly.
Story Teller : "I thought they were extinct," Alabaster says softly
Endless Chase: *Changes into a wildcat and bounds off towards the tower*
Maylin: Hopefully by late afternoon tomorrow they will be rebuilding this place and Filial Wisdom will be coming with us to lookshy
Maylin: *when they get to the roof, she looks around in wonder* wow...
Pathian: yeah
Pathian: hello again Relzya
Endless Chase: *He transforms back into his human shape when he reaches the tower, and searches it until he finds him*
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes blinks in astonishment. He walks over and looks at one of the warbirds, kneeling down to examine it...and then suddenly starts up, looking around.
Pathian: i have brought some of my companions to see your wonders
Maylin: *gasps* what did you do?
Endless Chase: Alaethis, where are you?
Story Teller : "Hello, Pathian-keina."
Story Teller : AC: "Show yourself!"
Pathian: relax alabaster, it is only Relzya
Story Teller : Alaethis gives no reply...
Maylin: *looks around timidly*
Endless Chase: *walks towards Zens room, gathering that that was where he and Ruby had been*
Endless Chase: *opens the door carefully, looking inside to see if he is there*
Story Teller : The air shimmers over by the altar, and a small woman appears with. She looks relatively human except for the wings and the blue feathers that cover her entire body
Story Teller : Alaethis and Ruby are on the bed, both curled up in sleep.
Story Teller : ((...no with))
Maylin: oh! Relzya, I presume?
Story Teller : The woman nods. "I am she."
Maylin: Relzya, I am Maylin, you're the guardian of these wonders?
Endless Chase: *He grabs a quill and paper from the bedside stand and writes a short note, saying "I thank you for the loan. I no longer require the use of Silver Fang. You may have your gift back." and sets both the blade and the note down
Story Teller : "I serve Vanileth, Shogun of Artificial Flight."
Endless Chase: And pulls the commitment from the balde, letting the magical link die*
Story Teller : ((wibble wibble))
Maylin: I see...
Zenleigha: *watches the sunset*
Story Teller : AC: "What are you keeping these for, Relzya-kami?"
Endless Chase: *He pauses for a moment, and nods. Then, very carefully he creeps to Ruby's side, and plants a gentile kiss on her castemark, then leaves the room to go rejoin Zen*
Story Teller : And in the darkness, as Endless Chase closes the door, Alaethis' eyes glitter slightly as he watches EC leave...
Story Teller : ...but too slight for him to notice
Maylin: ((dum dum DUM!))
Pathian: (big brother is watching you)
Story Teller : Relzya: "The return of their owners."
Endless Chase: *He pauses on his way out*
Endless Chase: *And goes to find Sith*
Endless Chase: *Or Elder Violot*
Endless Chase: ((Spelling sucketh))
Story Teller : ((which one??))
Maylin: whom are their owners?
Endless Chase: ((The first one he comes to))
Story Teller : Relzya: "The Dragon Kings and the Solar Exalted made them."
Story Teller : ((you find Sith))
Endless Chase: *Bows deeply*
Story Teller : Sith bows back
Maylin: That doesn't make them owners, per say...
Endless Chase: May the light of the Sun shine on you and your people always, elder.
Story Teller : "And may you have shelter in the warmth of the Sun."
Endless Chase: I come to ask a favor of you.
Story Teller : "What do you require?"
Endless Chase: I require a weapon.
Story Teller : Relzya: "I will wait until their owners return."
Maylin: Are any of these owned by Maenin, Seventh Sun, or Ashraielle?
Endless Chase: I wish to know if you know of anything that I might use that you and your people have no need of.
Pathian: or shining star
Story Teller : Relzya: "No. Though two of them did belong to Dancing Ruby Phoenix."
Zenleigha: ((bwah))
Pathian: hmmmm...
Maylin: Two...that's not enough...
Zenleigha: ((two is plenty miss greedy))
Pathian: what are the names of the other owners?
Maylin: ((not for defending Lookshy!))
Zenleigha: ((lookshy HAS first age technology when it comes to defense))
Pathian: (lookshy would laugh at us if we showed up in these :-P
Maylin: ((or praise us for adding to their defenses, think people!))
Zenleigha: ((its a tribute gift))
Zenleigha: ((two is enough))
Maylin: ((still))
Story Teller : Sith pauses. "For you...chosen of the moon...we may have something."
Story Teller : "Please wait here."
Zenleigha: ((shinies!))
Endless Chase: I need nothing more than the discarded weapon of a wanderer.
Maylin: *waits for Relzya to answer*
Story Teller : Sith comes back with a crystal club.
Endless Chase: This is...far more than what I was hoping for...
Story Teller : Relzya: "If you are the incarnations of those names you mentioned, then Ruby will be with you."
Pathian: (thats some shinies allright)
Maylin: she is, but she is unavailable
Zenleigha: ((daaaamn))
Pathian: ruby is indeed with us
Pathian: she is downstairs
Story Teller : Sith: "The hope you have given us is enough. Soon, the ghoul king will be gone, and our people will be free."
Maylin: We, though, have come to bring peace and prosperity back to Rathess...
Maylin: to restore it's glory
Zenleigha: (you didn't miss anything did you?))
Zenleigha: (( you saw what rach said)
Story Teller : ((I don't think so...))
Zenleigha: ((about restoring rathess??)
Story Teller : Relzya: "I will not allow those who do not own my charges to take them. I am sorry, she who was Ashraielle."
Endless Chase: I thank you, and I vow that I will use this in our struggle with your enemy.
Story Teller : Sith: "Your word is as the dawn to me." He makes a complex gesture with his hands
Maylin: I understand that, of course and I would never ask you to negate those duties but, I can't help but wonder how the owners will know to come get them if they don't know they exist
Maylin: Now imagine if these things were flying across Creation and we were able to locate their owners, freeing you from this roof and your charge
Pathian: which two belonged to ruby?
Maylin: *shrugs* of course, it doesn't matter, none of us really know how to fly these things and the Dragon Kings have probably forgotten...so I guess we won't be able to help you too much Relzya...
Story Teller : Relzya shakes her head. "You do not understand. But this is a fallen age." At Pathian's question she points to the warbird and one of the crystal globes.
Endless Chase: *He membles to himself* Now I just need to find armor for myself and I will be ready for the journey I plan to make soon...
Pathian: *walks ovet to the globe and looks inside
Story Teller : It looks exactly like the other globe that you examined, actually
Endless Chase: I thank you for your generocity, Sith, Elder of the noble Dragon Kings. May you find the warmth of the day in these dark nights.
Story Teller : "And may the hope of the dawn always guide your path," Sith replies
Pathian: *can i read the controlls or are they in DK pictograms?*
Story Teller : ((DK pictograms))
Zenleigha: *watches the night decend*
Endless Chase: *Shifts back into cat form and rushes off to where he left Zenleigha*
Maylin: *glances to Alabaster and sighs* I guess the two will at least help...
Pathian: *have i made any progress on figuring out which pictograms represent what?*
Story Teller : ((No, not really.))
Endless Chase: ((And commits the weapon on his journey*
Endless Chase: ))
Pathian: *bah*
Pathian: *what is the condition like on the warbird?
Endless Chase: *When he reaches the end of his trip he shifts back into his human shape, panting slightly*
Pathian: *is it intact?*
Endless Chase: Hello...again.
Zenleigha: *looks over* did you speak with him?
Endless Chase: Not exactly...
Story Teller : It looks to be in almost perfect condition
Zenleigha: You should, you know
Pathian: *almost? only a few feathers missing?*
Endless Chase: I think we understand each other well enough.
Endless Chase: I left him Silver Fang.
Story Teller : ((basically, yes))
Zenleigha: Ah *nods*
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes begins examining the warbird
Maylin: *looks to Alabaster* what do you think? You've seen the defenses of Lookshy more than I have
Zenleigha: do you want to talk about it ?
Endless Chase: Sith, has lent me this as a replacement *brandisheds the weapon*
Zenleigha: *blinks in awe*
Endless Chase: There really isn;t anything to say.
Pathian: *asks Relzya if she would interpret the controls for him*
Story Teller : While examining, he speaks. "Lookshy...Lookshy has the most powerful air...navy...in Creation. But every year, there are fewer of their ships."
Story Teller : Relzya begins to do so in exactly detail
Story Teller : ...
Pathian: *rock*
Maylin: so even just one of those would help, wouldn't it?
Story Teller : *exacting
Story Teller : AC nods absently, still looking over the warbird
Pathian: *pays attention REAL hard*
Zenleigha: That was kind of Sith
Maylin: *stays out of the boys's way)
Maylin: **
Pathian: of course it is ultimately ruby's decision on what happens
Endless Chase: It was.
Endless Chase: I will give it back to him and his people when I no longer need it.
Zenleigha: *nods*
Story Teller : ((But Relzya is a girl ;-)))
Zenleigha: Why did you want me to wait here?
Maylin: I'll talk her around to letting us bring it along
Endless Chase: Because I wanted to ask you something that I did not want the others to hear.
Zenleigha: please *motions for him to sit again* ask away
Pathian: bring it allong... maybe... give it away... maybe, maybe not
Endless Chase: We both have ties with Nine Lives.
Maylin: We'll see.
Endless Chase: It should be us that frees him from his torment.
Zenleigha: *nods*
Endless Chase: Will you come with me to kill him?
Pathian: *Zenleigha: *nods* *Pathian: (i think its a sign from god that its almost time to quit)*Maylin: ((don't say that!))*Pathian: (;-))
Zenleigha: Yes, On two conditions. First we have to free the Dragon Kings here and Secondly, I have to attend to buisness in lookshy
Zenleigha: After I am free of obligations, I will be glad to go with you to free him
Endless Chase: I will wait for our task here to be completed.
Endless Chase: Though only because I have obligated myself to do so.
Zenleigha: *nods*
Endless Chase: Afterwards I cannot wait further.
Zenleigha: Why ?
Maylin: *watches them admire the warbird*
Endless Chase: Because he is the last tie to my shattered past.
Zenleigha: Ah
Zenleigha: Well, I would ask you to wait for me
Zenleigha: Because I feel I owe him in a greater capacity than anyone else
Zenleigha: *blinks hard*
Zenleigha: I was ... she was.... horrible.... to him
Endless Chase: Then put your supposed business in Lookshy to the side.
Zenleigha: I cannot. It is pressing
Zenleigha: I am the only one the Diamyo trusts
Zenleigha: I cannot send May and Ruby and Pathian alone
Endless Chase: Then I am afraind that soon out paths are going to seperate.
Zenleigha: *nods*
Zenleigha: perhaps i could travel to meet you?
Maylin: *keeps looking like she wants to say something, but keeps her mouth closed*
Endless Chase: If you could make the distance fast enough...
Story Teller : ((we have to end soon))
Maylin: ((grrr no!))
Zenleigha: It may be possible
Endless Chase: If I travel alone I will do so swiftly.
Zenleigha: At the very least i shall keep in touch with you
Endless Chase: I am afraind that I will not be able to respond...
Zenleigha: I know, but at least you know what is going on with us, no?
Endless Chase: *Nods*
Zenleigha: *rubs her abdomon lightly as she stands up*
Endless Chase: I ask only that you do not tell the others of my journey to come.
Maylin: *at last, can't take it anymore* forgive me, Pathian, Alabaster, I have to retire...I have a rather important day tomorrow and I need my sleep...
Zenleigha: I will not
Endless Chase: I do not want them to worry about me.
Zenleigha: *nods*
Pathian: *absently* ok good night maylin
Endless Chase: I know that they do not trust the wyld. It does not scare me though.
Story Teller : Alabaster Chimes straightens and turns around. "Of course, May...May-san. I should sleep as well..."
Maylin: *turns and leaves quickly, heading back to her room*
Endless Chase: *Changes into a horse and bends down to offer her a seat*
Story Teller : AC: "Could you take me back, Pathian-san?" He turns to Relzya. "And thank you very much for your knowledge, Relzya-kami."
Maylin: *strips and lays out her clothing to dry before sitting to cover her face and cry*
Zenleigha: *smiles, and shakes her head* I should walk, it is healthier, but thank you
Pathian: (mount him jill(spider babies))
Zenleigha: ((!!))
Maylin: ((bad Walgren!)
Pathian: certainly
Endless Chase: *makes a horse-shrug and trots next to her as she walks*
Story Teller : ((and everyone goes to bed...))
Pathian: yep
Zenleigha: *pats his mane lightly*
Pathian: **
