01<DeathStar> -0-
01<DeathStar> Date: Next morning
01<DeathStar> Location: Thief Guild. Fucking RP
<Marcus> 6* Valen does valen-y stuff. Basically he's still asleep, leaning up against the wall.
<Kit> 6Nephilim bites Valen's ear
01<DeathStar> 6* Valen's ear is bit
<Seraphna> * Sia sits near Jean's bed, she quietly feeds Kaji, crooning gently to her.
<Marcus> 6* Valen jerks and makes a noise, eyes jerking open.
01<DeathStar> 6* Kaji rers, then eyes Jean like she's food
<@kalonZombie> *Leruste wanders around, wondering what kind of stuff the Guild keeps track of these days in order to get away with stealing stuff
<Seraphna> * Sadye snuggles into Rose, sleeping.
<Seraphna> * Sia shakes her head. "No, Kaji. Mistress is never food."
<Kit> <Nephilim> See? I'm boss. Goof morning, roostercock head.
<@kalonZombie> <Leruste> You're not even trying anymore
<Seraphna> * Kaelan sits awake, making repairs to weapons and armor.
01<DeathStar> 6* Kaji flaps down to Jean's body
<Marcus> <Valen> Y-You're boss? Since when?
<Seraphna> * Sia moves after her and picks her up. "Kaji, no."
01<DeathStar> 6* Kaji looks sad
01<DeathStar> 6* Seth snuggles a pillow
<Seraphna> * Sia kisses Kaji's head and carries her over to some more food.
01<DeathStar> 6* Gemane watches Lit set down plates of food in the main eating area
<Seraphna> * Sadye slowly rouses, yawning.
<Kit> 6Nephilim eyes him, chewing on his ear harder.
<Marcus> 6* Valen hisses. Aoooiieeeee. Y-You're boss!
<Kit> 6Nephilim lets go, nodding.
<Kit> <Nephilim> Now get me somethin' to eat..." 6She stretches lazily.
<Marcus> <Valen> ...well there is a magical word.
<Seraphna> * Sia moves into the main eating area and sits, starting to feed Kaji more. "Little thing... where does it all go?"
<@kalonZombie> *Leruste gets some food and starts eating it standing up, mumbling to himself about the quality of the food
01<DeathStar> 6* Kaji eats Leruste's fish
<Kit> <Nephilim> Heh, you're a stubborn one. "Please?" 6She flutters her eyelashes.
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita sits there, eating on the food and eyeing them all
<Seraphna> * Sia smiles and cuddles Kaji to her breasts.
<Marcus> 6* Valen smiles. Very well. 6He slips to his feet and moves to gather a plate for both he and Nephilim.
<Seraphna> * Sadye looks about, frowning a bit, she sits up and sighs. "Where'd Rose go?"
<@kalonZombie> <Leruste> What's the problem squirt?
<Seraphna> * Kaelan sets down her work and moves over to eat quietly.
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita eyes Leruste like he's gone mental, based on what's happened so far
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit jerks and rushes to Valen to grab the plate first, then hand it
<Kit> <Nephilim> Wow. She's serious about it.
<Marcus> 6* Valen jerks at Lit and blinks. Ahem...t...th-thank you.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit bows her head
<@kalonZombie> <Leruste> I mean at this exact moment, not the general... stuff... that happened yesterday
01<DeathStar> 6* Gemane peers at Seth.
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> Rose? She's around
<Marcus> 6* Valen takes the plates and moves to sit back by Neph, holding hers out.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth steps out of the room with Aschaem her hair combed back to show her ears, though one looks damaged
<Kit> <Nephilim> Thanks." 6She sits up.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit moves over to watch them eat
01<DeathStar> <Parita> ...
<Seraphna> * Sadye nods, "She slipped away while sleeping... just worried." *she smiles gently and looks about* "...Mmm... don't suppose we have access to livestock around here."
<Marcus> <Valen> I didn't do much. It was mostly Tranquility.
<Kit> <Aschae> Are you sure you're alright, Lenneth?
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth sits down at the table
<Seraphna> * Kaelan nods to Lenneth, peering up from her food.
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Me?
<@kalonZombie> *Leruste lets it drop and resumes eating
01<DeathStar> 6* Leruste finds no food on his plate
<@kalonZombie> *Leruste looks at Patria
<Seraphna> * Sia pets Kaji and holds her close. "Pretty little queen."
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita points at Kaji, who ate it earlier and retreated back to Sia
<@kalonZombie> <Leruste> Sigh... well, today can't possibly be any worse than yesterday... though it isn't starting out smashing *He goes to get more food
<Seraphna> * Sadye shifts back into Seth, sitting back a bit. "At least sleep helps."
01<DeathStar> <Parita> You're going after Death today
01<DeathStar> 6* Rose steps out wearing exotic Sinai clothing, like a Persian queen with her white hair. She sits and eats food quietly, stoic
<Kit> <Nephilim> Oh yeah. Now I remember why I thought it felt chilly.
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita eyes Nephilim. "And I'm coming."
<Marcus> 6Valen eats his food, arching a brow to glance at Nephilim. Chilly?
<@kalonZombie> <Leruste: What? No. Nononono. Nooooo.
01<DeathStar> 6* Seraphim watches from the shadows
01<DeathStar> <Parita> I am, too!
<Kit> <Nephilim> Doesn't it always feel a little cold talking to death?
<Seraphna> * Seth shifts over into the shadows and slides up to Seraphim. "You doin alright Miss?"
01<DeathStar> 6* Seraphim blinks and nods
<@kalonZombie> <Leruste> Kid, I've never met the guy, and I'm pretty sure he's reasonable enough, but I don't think you're quite old enough to be talking to someone who literally could take your soul.
<Seraphna> Seth> "Good, don't like seein you upset."
<Kit> <Aschae> I'd have felt better if it was just us.
<Marcus> <Valen> I...suppose. 6He hmms and peers at his arm to see if he has chill bumps.
<Seraphna> * Sia looks between Leruste and Parita.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth puts an arm around Aschae
01<DeathStar> <Parita> You can't stop me!
01<DeathStar> <Parita> i'm WAY older than you; like... 60 years old!~
<@kalonZombie> <Leruste> Sure I can. And if you're 60, then I'm 800 and living in the ocean.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "I think the only one who's got that decision to make is Nephilim, Pari." *she finishes her fish*
<Marcus> <Valen> I thought you told me you were 40.
<Marcus> 6Valen peers up from his arm.
01<DeathStar> <Parita>I meant I'm 60 years older than him! He's like a 2 year old!
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita coughs and eats her food now
<Seraphna> * Kaelan chuckles in amusement.
<Marcus> <Valen> ... 6He tilts his head slightly to the left, then shrugs slightly.
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> I don't think we should all go to meet Yeger
<@kalonZombie> <Leruste> Hey, I only ARGUE like a 2 year old. And point is, my vote is keeping you away from Death
01<DeathStar> <Parita> Like they care about your vote!
<Kit> <Nephilim> I don't particularly want you there, either, Panda.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "It'll be hard to stop some people from going... perhaps if we had another task for people to do."
<@kalonZombie> <Leruste> OH COME O-wait you're agreeing with me?
<Seraphna> Sia> "Where's Thomas...?"
01<DeathStar> <Parita> You're agreeing with him?
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> He never came back in last night
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> Also, speaking of tasks, should not some accompany Nephilim to get the rest of your friends?
<Marcus> <Valen> Hm. Hope he didn't get caught.
<Seraphna> * Sia frowns. "I hope he's okay..."
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "Sounds like a good idea... I'd like to go with you Neph."
<Marcus> <Valen> As would I.
<Seraphna> * Seth frowns. "I'd prefer to go see Yeger, with Jean's life on the line."
<Seraphna> * Sia looks down and pets Kaji.
01<DeathStar> <Kaji> Rer.
01<DeathStar> <Rose> Tal'kaka
<Kit> <Nephilim> I'm surprised you're not going as well, Kael. Are you that worried about Mercy that you'd turn your back on the angel?
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "I'm worried about both of them... Mercy is my wife however."
<@kalonZombie> <Leruste> I want to go see Yeger. Jean's the reason I'm here with you guys, might as well do what I can.
<Kit> <Nephilim> Heh, good girl, Kael. Maybe you're maturing after all.
<Seraphna> * Kaelan blushes a bit. "Maybe. Still feel a bit childish."
01<DeathStar> 6* Thomas steps in quietly, closing the door
<Marcus> <Valen> Perhaps a bit. 6he says with Nephilim with a slight nod.
<Seraphna> Sia> "I want to go with Ms. Lenneth... o-or stay here with Jean..."
<Kit> <Nephilim> What about you, Val?
<Kit> <Nephilim> Growing up, or need another bite." 6She smiles.
<Marcus> <Valen> Bit of both.
01<DeathStar> 6* Thomas sits down
<Kit> <Nephilim> Heh heh.
<Seraphna> Seth> "Rrr... So two groups, one to go get the others, one to go to Yeger."
01<DeathStar> <Thomas> Nephilim; if you can't find a stone under the city, you will have to travel north again to the woods
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "Perhaps some staying here with Jean would be prudent."
<Kit> <Nephilim> Right. I'll make do.
<Marcus> 6* Valen smiles at her before glancing to Thomas. How fares the city?
<@kalonZombie> *Leruste thinks, then grabs a coin, flipping it
01<DeathStar> <Thomas> The city is in a grip of fear; the church is rebuilt and those homes destroyed are as well; the church says the angel wanted tok ill Sinai
01<DeathStar> <Thomas> But they stopped her
<Seraphna> * Seth growls softly.
<Marcus> <Valen> They...rebuilt already!?
<Kit> <Nephilim> And they started a thief hunt. I'm worried about Panda and the remaining.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "We've seen the gods restore cities before."
<@kalonZombie> *Leruste looks at the coin and starts clapping "The church, ladies and gentlemen! Hand it to them for the official biggest pile of BS ever gathered in a single place!"
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "How do we get out of the city, if we can't find a stone?"
<Marcus> <Valen> Hn.
01<DeathStar> <Thomas> We wait here for a while
01<DeathStar> <Thomas> And pray the others are safe
<Seraphna> * Kaelan looks down and frowns. "...Alright. I trust your judgement Thomas."
<Marcus> 6* Valen rubs his neck slightly, letting out a sigh.
<Seraphna> * Seth chuckles darkly.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth finishes her fish with gutso, and sighs in thought
<Seraphna> Seth> "Pray? Pray to who..."
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Well, let us begin. 6* Parita skips over and opens the trap door to the underground
<Kit> <Aschae> Pray to Lenneth.
<@kalonZombie> <Leruste> Waiting sucks but hell if I'm going out there on a thief hunt when a good five or six specific guards are gunning for me
<Seraphna> * Seth moves over to join Parita. "I can move around the easiest, my face is a matter of choice."
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Pray to your own inner spirits
<Marcus> 6* Valen peers to the door and glances to Nephilim.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "Is it safe enough to search the underground for the Stone at least?"
01<DeathStar> 6* Rose moves to the trap door; Lenneth gets up and does the same; GEmane follows; then Seraphim. Lit looks at Nephilim, wondering what she should do
<Kit> <Nephilim> Ready to go?
<@kalonZombie> <Leruste> Anyway if there's a group staying behind, I'll stick with them. I'm actually not all that eager to meet Yeger, believe it or not
<Kit> <Nephilim> Yes, if the underground weren't safe we'd be boned already.
01<DeathStar> <Thomas> They should not know about it as wel las thieves; I will remain here to gather information. <Lenneth> We should all take the underground anyway to reach our destinations
<Marcus> 6Valen gets to his feet and holds a hand out to Nephilim.
<Seraphna> * Kaelan moves over to join Neph.
<Kit> <Nephilim> Zeal's going to be pissy if you don't show up soon, Thom.
<Seraphna> Sia> "I'll stay here and watch Jean."
<Kit> 6Nephilim grins, taking it to stand.
<Marcus> 6* Valen pulls her closer than one normally would when helping somone to their feet, giving her a slight smirk then moves over to the door, kneeling to peer down.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "We do have wives to collect, Thomas, are you okay with staying here?"
01<DeathStar> <Thomas> PErhaps I should be pissed she did not come here. 6* He notes simply
01<DeathStar> 6* Thomas peers at Kaelan stoicly
<Seraphna> * Kaelan frowns. "...Are you?"
01<DeathStar> <Thomas> I would not say what I was not ready to do
<@kalonZombie> <Leruste> Hey, don't think that way. It's... not good
<@kalonZombie> <Leruste> Trust me on that one.
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita leaps down the trap door into the tunnels
01<DeathStar> 6* Rose blinks, then leaps in, too. Gemane sighs, peering at her tail and she wraps it up in a nice cloth
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "In her defense, I don't think it was an easy choice."
<Seraphna> * Seth slips down into the tunnels.
<Kit> <Nephilim> Rooster, you better make sure Panda's alright. Or I'll flay you.
<Marcus> 6Valen shifts to lean over slightly and fall down inside himself.
01<DeathStar> 6* Thomas nods once to Kaelan, then gets notes out to go over.
<@kalonZombie> <Leruste> Hey, she's my apprentice... apparently
01<DeathStar> <Lit> Um...am I--going, Lady..Nephilim?
<Kit> <Nephilim> Stay with us, yes.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "Well... good luck Thom." *she moves over and heads through the trap door as well*
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth leans down and lands on Valen, then hops to the side, dusting herself off; she's wearing simple thief garments
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit swallows and holds oto Nephilim, closing her eyes
01<DeathStar> 6* Rose peers about in the dark tunnels; without a glowstone, seeing is impossible
<Seraphna> * Sia moves over to Thomas. "Can I help...?"
01<DeathStar> 6* Seraphim leaps down
<Kit> <Nephilim> Heheh." 6SHe leaps with Lit.
01<DeathStar> <Thomas> Should you not being going with them to help your 'mistress'?
01<DeathStar> 6* Tranquility squeals all the way down
<Seraphna> * Sia looks over at Jean's body. "...You'll watch her... right?"
<Kit> <Aschae> ..." 6She jumps after Lenneth, landing on her feet.
<Marcus> 6Valen lets out a grunt and dusts himself off, making a face.
01<DeathStar> 6* Thomas nods
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Thank you, Valen
<Seraphna> * Sia nods and kisses Thomas' cheek, then moves to join the others.
<Seraphna> Sia> "You too Leruste!"
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth activates a glow stone and begins to walk along the tunnel; PArita's already run ahead in the dark
<Marcus> <Valen> Glad to be useful. 6He rubs his shoulder slightly and moves after Lenneth.
01<DeathStar> 6* The underground tunnels are dark and gloomy; the walls seem to be made of the same things as the city itself, so it's hard to guage it's age. So far the group moves as one
<Seraphna> * Sia heads after Lenneth, Seth moves along with Lenneth as well while Kaelan looks to Valen and Neph, then moves.
<Marcus> <Valen> How do you find these stones, Nephilim? Luck?
<Kit> <Nephilim> At first. Though if they're nearby I can feel the connection.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "We seem to stumble on them."
01<DeathStar> 6* Seraphim peers about in the dark, her eyes glowing red a little
<Seraphna> * Seth's eyes glow as well, seems his own senses are sharper now in his emoness.
02* Kit (notany@cpe-72-177-76-246.austin.res.rr.com) Quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
<Marcus> <Valen> Well hopefully we're going in the right direction.
01<DeathStar> 6* Gemane gracefully walks around, sniffing the air and making faces; as they reach a juncture, the smell of sewage can be heard, since some of the upper tunnels are dumping grounds. Lenneth takes a left, beckoning them all to follow. They find Parita ahead.
<Marcus> 6Valen points. I wonder if that thief has realized she's gone?
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita looks back, then skips ahead
03* Kit (notany@cpe-72-177-76-246.austin.res.rr.com) has joined #session113
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "Mmm... probably. A general lack of her is a good hint."
01<DeathStar> 6* Gemane makes faces at the sewage smell; as they travel, they see a ramp that goes downward under the tunnel floor; so that they could hop over the ramp and continue, or go down it - the thieves, naturally, take the lower path to avoid sewage. Lenneth moves down it
<Seraphna> Seth> "Ah that smell... brings back memories."
<Marcus> 6* Valen walks along. Memories?
01<DeathStar> 6* Kaji looks bigger than normal; Leruste is also missing
<Kit> <Aschae> Do you know where you're going, Lenneth?
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Yes. 6* She blinks at such a question
<Kit> <Aschae> ..It's confusing down here. I'm no thief..
<Seraphna> * Sia blinks, she frowns and picks up Kaji. "Sweetie, are you carrying someone?"
01<DeathStar> 6* Kaji rers
<Seraphna> Seth> "Aye... I grew up on the streets, sewers were a good place to crash when it rained."
<Seraphna> Sia> "Was it Leruste?"
01<DeathStar> 6* Kaji burps
<Seraphna> Sia> "Spit him out."
<Marcus> <Valen> That doesn't sound appealing.
<Seraphna> Sia> "You don't know where he's been, he'll give you gas."
01<DeathStar> 6* As they travel downward, the wall textures change from more clay to more stone then toward things finally dirt of all things, with occassional walls made of stuff found in ruins; they reach a + juncture.
<Seraphna> Seth> "Wasn't really."
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Well, to get to Yeger's place we need to go right; I suppose you can all take another path to find the stone
01<DeathStar> 6* Kaji peers away, ignroing her
<Kit> <Aschae> A ruin?
<Marcus> <Valen> Hm. Which direction I wonder?
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Likely an old city buried over
<Kit> <Nephilim> That's what we used to believe.
<Seraphna> * Sia puffs her cheeks. "Little one."
01<DeathStar> * Parita lurks in the shadows, stiill ahead of them but close enough to watch
01<DeathStar> 6* Kaji throws Leruste up; he's covered in slime
01<DeathStar> 6* The sewage smell doesn't reach down in this area
<@kalonZombie> <Leruste> One word. Ew.
<Seraphna> Sia> "Good girl. You get a special treat now."
<Seraphna> * Sia gives her bits of sweet meat she had saved for good behavior.
01<DeathStar> 6* Kaji eats it happily
<Seraphna> * Kaelan looks about quietly.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth moves right for the Yeger mission; Gemane follows her as does Seraphim
<Marcus> 6* Valen glances to the side. Left or straight Nephilim?
<@kalonZombie> *Leruste wipes off his expensive looking clothes "Man and this was the last thing I had to wear too since Nephilim burned my old clothes and my house is probably under lockdown"
01<DeathStar> 6* Of course, since only Lenneth used a glowstone, the others are left in darkness
<Seraphna> * Kaelan fishes one out as Seth heads after Seraphim.
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita creeps after them
<Kit> 6Aschae stays by Lenneth.
<Marcus> <Valen> Nephilim? 6He glances to her.
<Kit> 6Nephilim pulls out her dagger and hums gently to use flame on her dagger as a torch
<Seraphna> * Sia continues after Lenneth, Kaelan peers at Valen and Nephilim, sticking to them.
<@kalonZombie> <Leruste> How far are we anyway?
01<DeathStar> 6* Nephilim still has straight and left paths to choose; or another does
<@kalonZombie> *Leruste follows Lenneth's path
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "Up to you Neph, this is your city." *she smiles a bit*
01<DeathStar> 6* Straight leads more into the center of the city, left more the left
<Marcus> 6* Valen glances to Nephilima nd begins to move straight.
<Seraphna> * Kaelan moves with Valen, sighing a bit.
<Kit> 6Nephilim follows him, humming the song so they have light.
<Marcus> <Valen> Let me know if you feel anything.
01<DeathStar> 6* The camera shifts focus to actually important people, like Lenneth
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth walks along; the walls continue to shift from dirt to ruinish walls; at one point the floor and the ceiling do, not the walls
<Kit> <Aschae> A long ways.
03* kalonZombie_ (chatzilla@175-dcmp7.goeaston.net) has joined #session113
<Seraphna> Sia> "Wonder what's down here..."
01<DeathStar> 6* Gemane peers about curiously, her tail swishing
01<DeathStar> <Seraphim> Tunnels
<Seraphna> Sia> "I mean... relics and such..."
01<DeathStar> 6* They reach another + junction and LEnneth goes left.
<kalonZombie_> <Leruste> I dunno, I never really used the tunnels that much
01<DeathStar> <Seraphim> Oh. 6* She peers down meekly, despite glowing eyes
<Seraphna> * Sia and Seth move along after the Great Lenneth.
01<DeathStar> 6* The tunnel opens up finally to a large area - those with good judgement would have noticed the tunnels slowly move downward in alitude so that when they enter the large area, they can see it's a large open space; ruin buildings are about and areas are collapsed, making it look impassible, but thieves have drawn arrows on what to do. (Cont)
02* @kalonZombie (chatzilla@pool-72-66-139-94.slsbmd.east.verizon.net) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
03* kalonZombie_ is now known as kalonZombie
01<DeathStar> 6* One building side has ledges that are climbable, according to the arrows, then once you reach the second floor, you climb sideways toward an area of dirt and walk along it to the next building, and the arrow points in a hole
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita wows, giving herself awayt
<kalonZombie> *Leruste follows Lenneth Seth and Sia
<Seraphna> * Seth chuckles a bit. "Nice."
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> Everyone here able to wall climb?
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> And Mom said climbing buildings wouldn't do me any good as a baker... PS my mom thought I was a baker.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth moves to the building side
<kalonZombie> NRP: "By the way my mom..."
<Kit> <Aschae> Wall.. climb?
<Seraphna> Seth> "Easy for me."
<Seraphna> Sia> "I-I... I'm not very good with sports."
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> I suppose we can enter a hole in the first building and try to reach the second floor that way.
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Any ideas for getting Sia up there?
01<DeathStar> 6* Gemane walks to the side of the building and feels her hand along it's wall
<Seraphna> Seth> "We could always help her up. It's slower but it works."
01<DeathStar> <Seraphim> Old buildings are so strange; --- the material looks like stronger stone than our own, and many havel ots of holes like maybe they are windows, but they go so high and have complicated stairs.
<Kit> <Aschae> I can ... use magic to knock myself higher. But I can't... climb walls without true handholds.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth watches Gemane pause at a portion and palm it with her hand; at first nothing happens, but then it cracks and the old material falls apart, revealing a hole into a room. She moves in
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Yeah. You want me to get up there first and you can help her up, or should you go first and I help?
<Seraphna> * Sia gasps and skips over to go through the hole. Seth grins. "That's a neat trick."
<Kit> <Aschae> What'd you do?
01<DeathStar> 6* The room looks untouched for the most part, having decayed and broken items all about it. One is a strange thin square that is black and has a round bottom on the bottom side. One side looks cracked
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> Mystifae technique; I felt out fracture points in the building
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Everyone takes all the fun out of everything... *He walks through the hole
<Seraphna> * Sia picks up the square carefully, inspecting it.
01<DeathStar> 6* Gemane eyes Leruste, then points at what appears to be a door, due to having a strange circular object on one side of it, much like door handles in Tareh, which are just wood slabs you pull on
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> Fine, open that, Leruste
01<DeathStar> 6* Its fairly light. Seraphim looks all about curiously
01<DeathStar> 6* There's a skeleton of some animal in the corner, and one of a human, touching the animal
<kalonZombie> *Leruste checks the door first, making sure it's not trapped
<Kit> <Aschae> Hm.. that would be handy as a martial technique..
<Seraphna> * Sia blinks and pokes around at it a bit, tilting her head, careful and studious of it, including the crack on the side.
01<DeathStar> 6* The door looks like a door
01<DeathStar> 6* Sia cuts her finger
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Becareful; we don't kjnow what old viruses may be on objects
<kalonZombie> *Leruste attempts to open it
01<DeathStar> 6* It's jammed; one side of the door looks a little bent
<Seraphna> * Sia squeaks and blushes, she nods and carefully cleans the cut after putting the square down.
<kalonZombie> <Leruse> Hmmm... it's jammed
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> A virus is something like the sneezes but worse
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> Unjam it, then
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Fine fine... *Leruste attempts to locate the source of the jam
<Seraphna> Sia> "Wouldn't wanna get sick... gotta be well for when Mistress wakes up." *she wraps some cloth around it and sighs, she then carefully wraps the object up in book cloth and puts it in her satchel.
<Kit> <Aschae> So we could get sick and die like these things did..
01<DeathStar> 6* It seems part of the door is jammed itself; it'll take bashing to get the door open, or something crafty
01<DeathStar> 6* Being rather large square, her satchel is awkward now
01<DeathStar> <Parita> Wow, can't even open a door?
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> We could always bash it open, and I vote not for me to do it, what with my crippling lack of any real muscles
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita peeks in from outside the hole they entered
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> Well, that was boring.
01<DeathStar> 6* Gemane motions at Aschae to use magic to break the door open
<Seraphna> * Sia puts it back when it doesn't fit, she sulks a bit. "Finger cut and it's too big to even take... oh well."
<Seraphna> * Seth peers at the door, then looks between Gemane and Aschae quietly.
01<DeathStar> 6* Kaji rers at Leruste, as if ready to eat him
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> What? I can't bash it down. You know how scrawny I am.
<Seraphna> * Sia pets Kaji with her good hand.
01<DeathStar> 6* Gemane peers at Aschae, then walks over, pressing her hand against her back and focusing something; Aschae's hand jerks a little and an earth spike pierces the door's hinges and knocks it open to reveal a hallway. Lenneth steps through with Gemane; Parita prances past Leruste. <Parita> I'll protect you
<Kit> <Aschae> ..Wh-What was that?
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> Impatience
<Kit> <Aschae> I wasn't sure what kind of magic to use..
<Seraphna> * Seth moves into the hallway quietly.
01<DeathStar> 6* The hallway has many doors, each with a symbol on them - Sia would recognize some of them from Jean's training
<Seraphna> * Sia blinks a bit. "I know some of these..."
<kalonZombie> *Leruste catches up to Patria "Kid, you'll only protect me to try and steal the clothes off my back once the slime's gone"
01<DeathStar> 6* Gemane looks around and Lenneth nods at one symbol, then moves and follows them to a staircase and moves up it. Parita eyes Leruste with a hmph. <Parita> I'm not like YOU
<Seraphna> * Sia eyes the symbols. "A number followed by a letter... room organization? 1A... 1B..."
01<DeathStar> 6* Seraphim peers at the symbols, then at Sia
01<DeathStar> <Seraphim> 1...ah?
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Hey, you wanna be a great thief one day?
01<DeathStar> <Seraphim> 1 ....bee?
<Seraphna> * Sia blushes. "Good!"
01<DeathStar> <Parita> Which means to be more like Ruun, not you!
<Seraphna> Sia> "They... don't mean anything specifically... I think."
<Kit> <Aschae> Hm. So why did you follow Leruste and not your mentor, little one?
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Says the kid who pretty much forced me to take her as my apprentice *He sticks his tongue out at her
01<DeathStar> 6* Once on the second floor, lenneth points at a wall at the other end of the hallway and Gemane palms it, busting it open; they're now, taking the long path, on the higher dirt area
01<DeathStar> <Parita> Follow him? He left the guild long ago
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> It's true. I left. Wasn't profitable enough.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth walks over to the second building and enters it's hole that the arrow pointed to, moving inside
01<DeathStar> 6* Gemane eyes Leruste, shaking her head once in wry amusement, perhaps, and follows after Lenneth; Seraphim keesp the rear to protect them
<Seraphna> Sia> "HUh..." *she follows Lenneth, Seth continues along quietly after Lenneth as well*
<Kit> <Aschae> I meant now.
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Wow saying that out loud sounds so weird now... *He follows Lenneth
01<DeathStar> 6* This hallway has more arrows, pointing at the staircase; this building looks a bit like the other, but while the other had a red floor, this one has some sort of strange material that looks soft and green, but is molded
01<DeathStar> <Parita> I'm not following him now.
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita hurries up the stairs
<Seraphna> * Sia pokes it with her foot. "Soft..."
<Kit> <Aschae> Hm. So instead of learning from the elf, you're dead set on seeing if you can get the hafling back.
<Seraphna> * Seth grunts a bit. "She just wants to see one of the people she looks up to come back. It's hard not growing up with parents to look to... Ruun must fill that gap to her."
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita eyes Aschae
01<DeathStar> <Parita> Stop talking about me like I'm not here. 6* She tells Seth
<Kit> <Aschae> It's not that I don't understand...
<Kit> 6Aschae frowns slightly, peering away.
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> The 'carpet' is molded. Becareful. 6* She tells Sia, walking up the stairs; the arrows direct them up to the top floor, which is #4, then down the hallway. At the far end they see a hole in the wall and back into a tunnel, it seems
<Seraphna> Seth> "Were I addressin you, pretty one, I'd certainly speak in a different way, however, I apologise for my rudeness."
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Ah the kid's just angry at me cause I yelled at her for biting me *He says as he follows Lenneth
<Seraphna> * Sia blinks and follows Lenneth. "Molded? That's like, what happens to bad food right?"
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Yes.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth walks along the tunnel which is mostly dirt now, with no signs of metallic alloy on the walls like before
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Try not to breathe too much around that stuff
01<DeathStar> <Seraphim> I do not need to breathe
<Seraphna> * Sia keeps after her, petting Kaji and holding her protectively.
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> I was talking more to Sia and Patria
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> Hmmm... 6* She pats Aschae's rear comfortingly; Lenneth suddenly stops and looks up; the ceiling is looking different now, a gold colored stone ceiling now, usually found in temples of gods
<Seraphna> Seth> "Well I am technically dead, but I haven't tested what I need to do and not do." *he sighs and moves on*
01<DeathStar> <Seraphim> O-OH...
01<DeathStar> 6* Seraphim looks down meekly
<Seraphna> * Sia peers up and blinks. "W-We're there already?"
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> *Sarcastically* Yaaaaay we get to talk to death
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> We need a way inside. 6* She notes simply; the tunnel keeps moving along and soon the gold stones stop. Lenneth pauses, then turns and walks back a little, peering up
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> Well, I can't palm that and break a hole.
<Kit> <Aschae> Is it too hard?
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> IT has no weak points I can tell
<Kit> <Aschae> And if I..." 6She grips her hands.
<Seraphna> * Seth frowns. "No stairs or anything? They really don't know then..."
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> There has to be another level for the sewage. 6* She frowns, then walks back in the new direction again, leaving the gold stones behind once more to look ahead
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> What?
<Kit> <Aschae> If I tried my hand at it?
<Seraphna> * Sia skips after her.
<kalonZombie> *Leruste follows them
<Seraphna> * Seth steps after Lenneth.
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> It may be not be a good idea yet; we'll save that for a final resort
01<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
01<DeathStar> 6* Valen dramatically leads a non-Kalon group around; they come to another +
<Marcus> 6* Valen glances around. Any suggestions?
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "If the stones were placed logically... perhaps we should keep towards the center of the city?"
<Marcus> <Valen> Hm. I don't have a good argument for that. Nephilim?
<Kit> <Nephilim> Keep going straight would ...be straight?
<Seraphna> * Kaelan giggles.
<Marcus> <Valen> Indeed it would.
<Marcus> 6* Valen continues along, aiming to go towards the center of the city.
<Seraphna> * Kaelan moves along with him.
<Marcus> <Valen> So how do these stones work again?
<Kit> <Nephilim> I have no idea. I just know... they do what I tell them.
01<DeathStar> 6* As they travel straight a bit more, it opens up into a large area like the other group encountered; inside the large area are various buildings looking like they are post apocalypitic Tareh civilization buildings, ala Terminator Salvation, with the top parts eitehr buriedi n the ceiling of dirt above, or torn apart so only one or two levels at most survive (cont)
<Marcus> 6* Valen pauses to peer around slowly. So, we could focus on going to Rachael and it would?
01<DeathStar> 6* Thief arrows, for those traveling about, point at a half-building at the far right toclimb up and a nother hole in the dirt walls of the area can be seen. However, Nephilim would feel something northward, past all the ruined buildings; however, it's no straight path forward, as buildings that are uneven, dirt areas blocking paths, bar that. They'd have to try to PoP through
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "This looks like the place under Navarro... a bit..."
<Kit> <Nephilim> Heh heh. This could be fun.
<Seraphna> * Kaelan blinks. "Mmm... I suppose I could use Wind Jump to try and keep up."
<Marcus> <Valen> Poor me. I am so big and slow. 6He says with a dramatic sig.
<Marcus> NRP: sigh
01<DeathStar> 6* Since Kaelan would feel no pull, logic would dictate she would try to follow the arrows, which do not go the way Nephilim wants
<Seraphna> * Kaelan looks towards the arrows. "Can't we just go that way though?"
<Kit> <Nephilim> It'd be quicker this way.
<Marcus> <Valen> What do you mean? 6He glances to Nephilim.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "For you maybe... I'm gonna need help. I'm assuming you know where we're going now."
01<DeathStar> 6* Tranquality cowers behind them, holding their supplies
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "There's the maid too."
01<DeathStar> 6* Nephilim would notice her first way into thecenter would be a building on the left, and trying to climb it to the third floor, then flipping off onto a slanted building that has no top half and landing inside it
<Marcus> <Valen> I bet she's a magical...climbing...person.
<Marcus> 6* Valen glances to Nephilim. Neph??
<Seraphna> * Kaelan sighs and peers at the arrows again.
<Marcus> 6* Valen snaps waves a hand in front of her face.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "Maybe she's overwhelmed by the pull?"
<Marcus> <Valen> ...
<Marcus> 6* Valen shifts to lift Nephilim up and begins to move for the arrows. I know no other way to go without guidance. So let's go this way.
01<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
01<DeathStar> Location: The OFfical Kalon Group
01<DeathStar> 6* After taking a long about route, Lenneth has found a way back up to the sewage tunnels above the thieving tunnels, and works her way back toward the temple of Yeger. They are blocked, though, by a large golden door with a keyhole; a metal grate runs under it, carrying sewage out from the temple
01<DeathStar> 6* They are on top of the grate/tunnel
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> This place smells worse than a noble's chamber pot
<Seraphna> Seth> "Probably all the dead."
<Kit> <Aschae> I think it may be connected to a noble's chamber pot.
<Seraphna> Sia> "Whatever it is it's stinky."
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Can anyone lock pick?
<Seraphna> Seth> "Yes."
<Seraphna> * Seth moves over, fishing out some stuff to work a lock with.
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Yes
<Kit> <Aschae> One would hope the thief..
01<DeathStar> <lenneth> Then I guess we won't have to make Rose wiggle under the small opening
01<DeathStar> 6* Rose tiltsher head
<Seraphna> * Seth pauses, looking to the thief.
<Seraphna> Seth> "You want the honors or should I? This is your field after all."
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> If I may, please? I haven't picked a lock in quite some time, I'm afraid I'll get rusty
<kalonZombie> *Leruste moves over, taking out his lock picking tools and starts picking it with his skeleton key ability
<Seraphna> * seth nods. He motions to the keyhold with a flourish.
01<DeathStar> 6* Prepare yourself, LEruste
<kalonZombie> Ready
01<DeathStar> 6* Right, Left, right, Left, right, Left, Left, Right, Left, Right, Right, Left, Right, Left
01<DeathStar> 5
01<DeathStar> 4
01<DeathStar> 3
01<DeathStar> 2
01<DeathStar> 1
<kalonZombie> lrlrlrrlrllrlr
01<DeathStar> -0-
01<DeathStar> 6* The door unlocks. Rose looks relieved a bit and Seraphim nods to Leruste in congratulations
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> Hm, not bad, I suppose
<Seraphna> * Sia giggles. "He's useful like Neph! I will call him... Number 2."
<kalonZombie> *Leruste puts his tools away "Hey, do something for 11 years and you tend to pick up a knack for doing it
01<DeathStar> <Parita> I could have done it!
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth grips the heavy gold door and strains, making a face now that her god pwoers are gone
<Seraphna> * Seth grins a bit. "We'll be sure to give you the chance to shine, little lady." *he winks rogishly at Parita*
<Seraphna> * seth moves over and helps her.
<Kit> <Aschae> Do it for fifty more and you'll have some of her knack
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> I was hoping to be out of the robbery trade in 50 years, thank you
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenenth and Seth begin to slowly open the solid gold door. Gemane grips and helps as does Seraphim
<Seraphna> * Sia, being a puny little thing, just looks meek as she watches them.
<Kit> 6Aschae adds her strength to it.
01<DeathStar> 6* All the women and one man pull it open.
01<DeathStar> 6* Inside there's no grating and no smell, and it seems to be some underground chamber; the walls are made of gold, with symbols and pictures on them of things; the pictures seem to tell a story almost
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth enters, glancing at the pictures and heads into a room with an altar; there's a golden staircase leading up into the main temple area, where the statue of Yeger can be found and the worship area.
<Seraphna> * Seth peers around, Sia looks at the picture in interest. Then they both follow Lenneth.
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Oh man oh man if only I actually cared about making a profit still, this place would let me retire
<Kit> <Aschae> I think Yeger would object..
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Back then I probably would have taken the chance
<Seraphna> Seth> "Mmm, probably a bad idea to steal from Yeger."
01<DeathStar> 6* The pictures show a planet and lines toward it; then another shows men being chained and kneeled with ruined imaginary around them, then another picture shows them happy; another shows one of the lines changing
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Yeah probably.
<Seraphna> Sia> 'Death always finds you in the end.'
01<DeathStar> 6* The final picture shows the line becoming a reaper like figure
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth opens a pouch and pours something into the tray at the bottom of the altar; it looks like a sand
01<DeathStar> 6* Gemane glances about curiously while Seraphim and Rose stand guard.
<Kit> 6Aschae crosses her arms beside Lenneth.
01<DeathStar> 6* The altar shifts; as it does, they would notice it's some sort of device with two golden trays, both empty, and both looking even with each other. Lenneth chants something in the old tongue
<Seraphna> * Seth continues to peer about, a little paranoid in the middle of a temple.
<Seraphna> * Sia watches Lenneth with deep interest.
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita pokes at the pictures, then reaches for the trays; Gemane catches her hand
01<DeathStar> <Parita> ....
<kalonZombie> *Leruste watches, slient, his eyes darting around like he's worried about interrupting anything
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth finishes and pours a bit of sand, an equal amount, onto one tray; at first the trays are even, but wiht the sand in one, it lowers while the other raises
<Kit> <Aschae> Balance.
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Uome. 6* There's a rumbling
<Seraphna> Sia> "Oh..."
<Seraphna> * Seth peers about.
<kalonZombie> *Leruste walks over to Patria and whispers "Don't touch anything, I mean it."
01<DeathStar> 6* Rose looks about, forming a ctystal sword. Parita eyes Leruste, then hmphs, but seems to listen. Seraphim actually pales and looks afraid
01<DeathStar> 6* The rumbling stops and a voice speaks; it sounds like rock being grounded against rock almost, a rasp more than anything. A figure is standing in the corner, cloaked in darkness. <Yeger> Leeeeenneth. Why do you invoke...me?
<Kit> <Aschae> ...Yeger..
<kalonZombie> *Leruste's eyes bulge and he goes pale
<Seraphna> * Sia doesn't look directly at Death, perhaps thinking that's a very bad idea. Seth however, peers over.
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> Mmmm. One who has courted me before. 6* IT rasps toward Aschae, then peers at Lenneth. <Yeger> Have you come...to balance your scales...?
01<DeathStar> 6* Rose peers at Yeger blankly, while Gemane is clearly curious
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Balance my scales? <Yeger> Y ou should..h.ave died long ago...if not for...Gartareh's blessings... <Lenneth> ...
<kalonZombie> *Leruste tries to put Patria behind him, not wanting her to see Yeger
<Seraphna> * Sia blinks a bit. She looks to Lenneth.
01<DeathStar> 6
<Kit> <Aschae> Courted..? Me?
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita tries to peek around him.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth considers that thoughtfully.
<kalonZombie> *He whispers "No, he's not something you should see"
<Seraphna> Seth> "Len, remember why we're here."
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> We have come to ask for the angel's soul back. <Parita> And Ruun's! 6* She shouts out. Yeger's gaze turns toward her; despite being in the shadows, the outline of his face is seen, pale as a fog.
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Patria!
01<DeathStar> <Parita> So what?! I want Ruun back; the old lady didn't even come here to get her back.
<Kit> <Aschae> What do you mean, courted?
01<DeathStar> 6* Yeger chuckles, a raspy noise that sounds humorless. "It would seem...your friend...wishes to speak of other things than bargains." 6* He peers toward Aschae. "You come to my...doorstep often...and send others to it even more..."
01<DeathStar> 6* Yeger sweeps a hand and all the dead people ASchae have slain appear around the room, like ghastly projections. The priestess the largest
<Kit> <Aschae> Ah. So that's what you mean.
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> Only you...seek to put the gods on my doorstep. Your dreams court me.
01<DeathStar> <Parita> Who cares about what she wants!!! What do you want for Ruun? Gold? Leruste will pay you
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita tries to get around him to go right for Yeger
<Kit> <Aschae> I'm too weak. I was prideful-- that which comes before the fall. Though I'm already known as the Fallen, I guess.
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Patria no! *He makes a grab for her, trying to keep her close
<Seraphna> * Seth reaches out to grab Parita. "Not a good idea."
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita squirms, but isn't strong enough to get free
<Kit> <Aschae> It doesn't sound as if you have anything to say to me revelating further than I would already know... so the little one says, the halfling and the angel, we would bid.
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> The dead is dead; you cannot...simply bring someone back with out...consequences and their weight...in flesh. Look at those two." 6* He points at Seth and Seraphim. "Unnatural; dead. they exist by taking blood of living to balance their own lack of it."
01<DeathStar> 6* Seraphim peers down shamefully
<Seraphna> * Seth frowns.
01<DeathStar> 6* Gemane crosses her arms. Lenneth frowns at Yeger, judging him; but she doesn't threaten him
<Seraphna> Seth> "What's the price for Jean?"
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> Jean?
<Seraphna> Seth> "The Angel."
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> Ah, the angel; an interesting term given to her...though not her birth name. I cannot do that.
<Seraphna> * Seth flinches, "What?"
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> I cannot return that which is not gone
<Seraphna> * Sia looks dully at Yeger now, eyes clouding.
<Seraphna> Sia> "She's alive...?"
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> Neither alive, nor dead.
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> To keep powers from transferring, and to save others, she used her lifeforce...that is so, but she hid her being in who was tied to her.
<Seraphna> Seth> "She's not walking around hungering for a meal like me, so what's wrong with her?"
01<DeathStar> *one who was
<Seraphna> * Seth peers around.
01<DeathStar> 6* Gemane raises a brow, not expecting that one
<Seraphna> Sia> "We were all marked... but we lost ours..."
<Seraphna> Seth> "...It's possible someone didn't, then."
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> I could try to pull her being back...but it would cost the life of one who was tied to her...at the time of parting. Or you could try another way to bring her being back
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Another way?
<Seraphna> Sia> "Uniting the soul and body... we need to find who has her soul."
01<DeathStar> 6* Yeger doesn't respond; apparantly they would have to find that one themselves
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> I'm guessing it would be wrong to sacrifice someone with the mark, then
<Kit> <Aschae> Who was she tied to?
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> Many had her mark at the time.
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Why tell us this? Wouldn't Gartareh be angry? <Yeger> What good will it do him if she remained not here nor in my realm? Eventually, she will come, as will the one she is in now.
<Seraphna> * Seth raises a brow slowly.
<Kit> <Aschae> Someone still has the mark..?
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> Two people cannot be in one body forever
<Seraphna> Seth> "And the woman called Ruun?"
01<DeathStar> 6* Yeger peers at Parita. "And what would you offer for her? What would you place in the scales of death to balance the scales of life?"
01<DeathStar> <Parita> I--I---well...
<Kit> <Aschae> What would you want, Yeger?
01<DeathStar> 6* Yeger does not answer; he seems to simply wait for the offer
<Seraphna> Sia> "He bargains for balance, custom is to name an offer."
01<DeathStar> <Parita> Um --- 6* She checks her pockets
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> I can only guess to balance, someone else has to die.
<Kit> <Aschae> Less than a day hence, he gained an entire building's worth of souls and the surrounding.
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> No Partia... I don't think he's interested in physical things
01<DeathStar> <Parita> But--- Fine. You can have m--
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> NO
<Kit> <Aschae> As he was quick to show, I am the causer of many deaths. What more can he want?
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita jerks at the loud no, her ears twitching
<Seraphna> Seth> "Girl. do you think Ruun could live knowing a tyke like you was the price for her life? She died saving you."
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> Does it have to be a full life? <Yeger> The offer can be many things.
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> Intentions drive most things, not the price.
<Seraphna> Sia> "...How many years did Ruun have left in her natural life?"
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Partia, don't you think it's hard for me losing Ial? *He kneels down beside her "You have to accept some things in life Partia, it sucks and I know it just as well as anybody else here, but that's what it is"
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> 130 cycles
01<DeathStar> <Parita> Why not ask him to bring her back, too?
<Seraphna> * Sia squeaks. "I'd never live that long..."
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita eyes Yeger. "Um, I offer...30 cycles?"
<kalonZombie> *Leruste is taken aback by the question, and cannot think of an answer
<Seraphna> Seth> "Raw time is a measure, but it matter the person giving it. Great people's lives might be worth more then simple lives."
01<DeathStar> 6* Yeger points a bony finger, with barely any flesh on it, toward the scales. "Place some blood...on the scale that is higher." 6* Parita walks over, then looks at everyone for something sharp
<Seraphna> * Seth frowns, but Sia meekly holds up a throwing knife to Parita.
01<DeathStar> <Rose> Tal'Ka. 6* She speaks. Yeger looks at her. <Yeger> I cannot do that...either.
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita takes the knife and stubbornly pokes her palm, making a face
<Seraphna> Srth> "So the ol' pup is alive huh?"
<Kit> <Aschae> This... doesn't feel right.
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> Tal'Ka is alive? Where?
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> I'm sorry, Aschae... I suppose each of us could offer some blood for Ruun, but we cannot say how much he'll take from us to give her 30 cycles
<Seraphna> * Sia blinks a little, she looks at Yeger, not directly still. "...U-Umm... do you have... Mia's soul?"
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> He is...not on Tareh...at this time. He is...with the gods
<Seraphna> * Seth jerks.
01<DeathStar> 6* Yeger looks at Sia. "Your twin sister's soul has been dead...for some time, yes."
<Seraphna> Seth> "They... took him."
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> A woman called Ial? *He asks without looking at Yeger
<Seraphna> * Sia nods simply. "...Thank you for telling me."
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> Do you wish to bargain for her?
<Kit> 6Aschae grips her hand tightly, then walks over to Parita, keeping her from putting her hand out.
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita looks at Aschae, frowning and about to get angry
<Seraphna> * Sia looks down. "I love my twin, but she died on a path she set herself down a long time ago... I... I at least now know that she's really gone."
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> How long did she have left in natural life?
01<DeathStar> 6* Yeger looks at Leruste. "Your Ial is dead. She has 50 cycles left."
01<DeathStar> *had
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> I offer 25 of my own
<Kit> 6Aschae holds out her hand, the one she was tensing, it's bleeding from her fingernails, over the scale and letting it drip. She keeps Parita back.
<Kit> <Aschae> Enough.
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> Due to her...sins...her soul is stained. Any bargain would be double. Your 25...would grant her 12.5
<Kit> <Aschae> All these people... if you want them back, take it from me. But this talk of 'natural' life remaining... their lives are done. There is nothing natural remaining.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth bites her lip at ASchae, peering down. The scale evens, and the blood vanishes back to an uneven state for Leruste
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> ... Aschae!!
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth looks up at her, eyes watering a bit at hearing that
<Seraphna> * Sia looks down, she seems to have a similar feeling to Aschae.
<Kit> <Aschae> None of them will be grateful-- none of them will live long. What you're doing is selfish and that is all.
<kalonZombie> *He walks to the scale and takes the knife, thinking hard
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita jerks at aschae and looks down
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> Mmm, perhaps one of you...is wise
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> Tell me, Aschae the Fallen, if the angel had been dead, would...you have brought her back..?
<Seraphna> * Sia crosses her arms and steps back.
<kalonZombie> *He puts the knife down and walks away "To do that would make me a hypocrite... keep her. I'll see her again, eventually.
01<DeathStar> 6* Rose touches Leruste's shoulder
<Seraphna> * Seth frowns deeply, crossing his arms, he seems agitated.
01<DeathStar> 6* Seraphim is quiet in thought to all this
<Kit> <Aschae> She confided in me once. The only thing the angel-- and Jean as well-- wanted was to know why she was here. Her memories. She had no personal agenda against the gods but what they brought to her.
<Seraphna> Seth> "I'd bloody offer myself but... the mark was removed long before this."
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> Then go ... wiuth your convictions on the balance of life. What was once...will one day be naught. The scales...can never be evened...except in blood of others. There is no...naturality in that
<Kit> <Aschae> I suppose the answer is no. I wouldn't bring her back-- not this way.
01<DeathStar> <Yeger> Your person will be where...she died. 6* He tells Parita, then begins to vanish in the shadows.
<Kit> <Aschae> She would only live unhappily.
01<DeathStar> <Seraphim> Wait. God of Death. I would speak.. to you alone after this
<Kit> 6Aschae narrows her eyes slightly, frowning at Seraphim.
<Seraphna> * Seth blinks a little, looking at Seraphim.
01<DeathStar> 6* Yeger nods once at Seraphim. He lifts a hand. "I will send the others...to your where your soul has been...brought back. I will not tell another...of the location
01<DeathStar> 6 *Seraphim doesn't meet Aschae's gaze
<Kit> <Aschae> Seraphim... what are you doing?
01<DeathStar> <Seraphim> You spoke a truth, Aschae; their lives are done. So was mine; I died, after all. You ralized this...too before I let my fear of damnation get in the way. I wish to speak... to the god of Death of some matters.
<Seraphna> * Seth continues to peer at Seraphim. "...Please walk away from that talk."
<Kit> <Aschae> You did not choose what was dealt you.
01<DeathStar> <Seraphim> But I can choose what happens next
01<DeathStar> 6* Yeger waves a hand and everyone would find themselves back in the thief's guild, minus Seraphim
<Seraphna> Seth> "But---" *he blinks* "Damnit..."
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth looks dizzy at that, peering about. Thomas looks up, blinking once, shifting some notes into his backpack
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Well... that was super creepy and generally unpleasant
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita looks around and runs around; she trips over a body
<Seraphna> * Sia frowns and moves over to check on Jean.
01<DeathStar> 6* Jean remains covered up as she was left - not appearing to live at all
<Seraphna> * Seth sighs. "I think I know who it is we're looking for."
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> Who?
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Care to enlighten us those late to the party?
<Kit> 6Aschae shifts and punches the pillar Jean is again, gritting her teeth.
<Seraphna> Seth> "My guess would be Rachael. She was connected to Jean a bit differently. She was afaid of her mind destroying her early on."
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth takes a cloth, then moves over to ASchae and grabs her arm, wrapping it up. "Talk to me, love..." 6* She says softly.
<Seraphna> Seth> "She even tried to give Jean her body when Kaelan and Mercy were getting barried."
<Seraphna> *married
<kalonZombie> *Leruste looks around for Partia
<Seraphna> Seth> "If I had to guess, since we can rule out everyone but Zeal, Mercy and Rachael, my gold is on Rach."
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita is at some body on the ground, shaking the body
<kalonZombie> *He walks over to her "Is that who I think it is?
01<DeathStar> 6* The body groans and ruun sets up, looking pale and weak. Her human ears, which Leruste would be used to, despite be scarred heavily on the top, seem to be fixed now back to elven ears. <Ruun> Parita...? <Parita> Ruun!
<Kit> <Aschae> I wanted to give her life back..
01<DeathStar> 6* Parita hugs her tightly
<Kit> <Aschae> Unnatural or not, she's tossing it away. And I don't even... she won't even let me see why/
<Seraphna> * Sia sits quietly by the bed.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth pulls Aschae close. "I know; I love you for your kindness, that even you don't always see it in yourself - you care about others, like Seraphim, so much. But promise me, that you won't toss your life away, either - I don't want to lose you after this is over."
01<DeathStar> 6* Seraphim appears a moment later
<Seraphna> Seth> "We... may want to hope the others find that stone, because if I'm right, we need to either get Jean to Rachael, or the other way around."
<Seraphna> * Seth peers over at Seraphim. "You're alright..."
<Kit> <Aschae> I can only promise what you do to me.
01<DeathStar> <Gemane> Yeger did indicate that both would die if it went on too long
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> And that's bad... right?
01<DeathStar> <Lenneth> I love you; and I will be with you. I pray, not to the gods, but life itself, when this is over, you and I can be together
<Seraphna> Seth> "We'd better bring Jean to her then, one way. It's getting out of the city anyway."
01<DeathStar> <Ruun> ... what happened...where's that bastard...?
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> I mean aside from the normal dying thing, that's bad right?
01<DeathStar> 6* Ruun looks disoriented.
<Kit> <Aschae> Harbinger is dead, halfling. Worry no longer about such things.
01<DeathStar> 6* Seraphim looks at them all. "I made a promise; I would not break that."
01<DeathStar> 6* Ruun glances at Aschae, squinting, then touches her ears, making a shocked noise
<Kit> 6Aschae looks to Seraphim curiously. 1"And to what promise do you oath now?"
01<DeathStar> <Seraphim> To you; I have not broken that promise yet, have I...? 6* She looks down meekly
01<DeathStar> <Seraphim> I would aid you in destroying the gods, so that when it was over, you could destroy me and GArtareh would not torture me for eternity
<Kit> <Aschae> I did not say such a thing. I merely wished to know of any subtext that may exist now..
01<DeathStar> <Seraphim> That is why I am here
<Kit> <Aschae> Mm. I recall making no such oath to kill you. I merely conjectured that when you should-- that would not happen.
<Seraphna> * Seth rubs his face, he looks to Thomas.
01<DeathStar> <Seraphim> you do not have to be the one. But I will not break my oath to you, in any case.
01<DeathStar> 6* Thomas listens quietly
<kalonZombie> *Leruste bends down to Leruste "So yeah, this may sound crazy but..."
01<DeathStar> <Seraphim> You showed me kindness; I would not forget that. I only wished to talk to Yeger.
<Kit> <Aschae> Hm..." 6She still looks troubled but nods.
01<DeathStar> <Seraphim> I will tell you later, if you wish. 6* She notes meekly, and moves to ASchae's room
<Kit> <Aschae> Thank you... Seraphim.
01<DeathStar> 6* Ruun peers at Leruste, looking surprised he is still theer
<Seraphna> Sia> "Are the others going to come back? They were just scouting for the stone right?"
01<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth relaxes, probably more that Aschae will not be sad at no Seraphim than Seraphim being there
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Long story short, we talked to Yeger
01<DeathStar> <Ruun> ... The God of Death? ... I knew I should have let someone else watch these people
01<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
01<DeathStar> Location: Not the offical Kalon Fanclub
01<DeathStar> 6* AFter finding no stone, Valen begins to retrace the route back to the thief guild. They pass into the open area from long ago again, where the pull was, but Nephilim never did anything due to people distracting her player from typing BRB
<Marcus> <Valen> Well. Which direction now?
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "Maybe we should go back...? We'll need supplies if we have to go north."
<Kit> <Nephilim> I still feel it here.
<Marcus> <Valen> Still? We...didn't know you did before. 6he frowns and glances to Kaelan. We do?
<Kit> 6Nephilim peers over the northern route over buildings and ruin. 1"You just can't get to that specific spot from the paths along the ground."
<Seraphna> * Kaelan blinks. "If she feels a stone, then no..."
01<DeathStar> 6* As before...
01<DeathStar> 6* Nephilim would notice her first way into thecenter would be a building on the left, and trying to climb it to the third floor, then flipping off onto a slanted building that has no top half and landing inside it
<Marcus> 6* Valen looks points to the left and the hopping over onto the open building like was pointed out to Neph before. We could go that route. What do you think?
<Kit> <Nephilim> I can get to it. I just don't get how to get Lit or Kael there.
<Kit> <Nephilim> Or if we come back this way-- anyone out of it.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "If we had someone with Earth Magic we might be able to alter the path... I can try jumping with Wind Magic."
<Marcus> <Valen> I can carry Lit.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit looks meek
<Kit> <Nephilim> Guess I can try to create some anchor points with rope.
<Marcus> <Valen> Someone would have to carry supplies though.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "I can carry a LOT."
01<DeathStar> <Lit> I-I brought rope
01<DeathStar> <Lit> I-I tried to bring anything mistress Nephilim would need
<Kit> <Nephilim> Hand it here?
<Marcus> <Valen> That was good thinking. But we might could get it stuck into the ceiling and swing across, yea?
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "Let's do this carefully. If we have plenty of rope we can help Lit get over."
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit sets down her backpacks, two big ones that looks heavy; it's hard to imagine how she's managed to do all the traveling, and she's never complained once. She pulls out 1 of 10 ropes
<Seraphna> * Kaelan smiles. "I'll take half the load while we do this, all of it if you want."
<Marcus> 6* Valen blinks. Wow that is a large bag.
<Kit> <Nephilim> I'll take at least three, just in case I need to make different anchor points.
01<DeathStar> <Lit> It would not be proper. 6* She says like Mercy, defensively
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit hands Nephilim various tools thieves use witrh the ropes to sneak into places, so the rope is secured
<Marcus> <Valen> Proper or not, your weight could cause you to slip and fall to your doom.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit pales and shakes
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "I'm tougher and have magic to help me."
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "You really do remind me of my wife... heh..."
<Marcus> <Valen> I...I'm sorry I didn't mean to frighten you.
01<DeathStar> <Lit> I-I am not s-s-s-scared. 6* She eyes the ruins in fear
<Kit> 6Nephilim looks up at the building, then stretches first before springing up and running along it, using magic to assist if she needs, then begins securing a rope to drop down to them so they can climb easier
01<DeathStar> 6* To show how awesome Nephilim is, an OG is here. Get ready
01<DeathStar> 6* Right, Up, Down, Left, Right, Up, Down, Right, Right, Left, Up, Down

01<DeathStar> 6* Nephilim fails
<Marcus> <Valen> Come now. You don't have to worry, I will keep ahold of you, so if you are to fall to your doom, I will be falling with you. 6* He winces when Nephilim fails.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "...She really seems out of it... maybe we should go back and rest...?"
01<DeathStar> 6* The rope falls all the way back down; Nephilim will have to get it and try again in another OG. Get ready
01<DeathStar> 6* Right, Up, Down, Left, Right, Up, Down, Right, Right, Left, Up, Down

01<DeathStar> 6* Nephilim fastens the rope, and now needs to make a jump onto the other building to string it along. Prepare yourself
01<DeathStar> 6* right, Right, Right, Right, Right, Right, Right, Right, Down
<Seraphna> * Kaelan blinks a bit. "Ah, that time she did better."

<Seraphna> * Kaelan watches, looking back at Valen curiously.
01<DeathStar> 6* Nephilim gracefully leaps to the second building with the next rope, stringing it across; from her new vantage point, she can see more into the area; next she'll need to climb down the side of the building she's on, and then she can walk toward the center where she has to climb a sideways building up to the top - no OGs for that, since it's simple
<Marcus> 6* Valen is as white as a ghost.
01<DeathStar> <Lit> O-Oh, poor..mistress...oh...is she hurt...oh, wow, she made..
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit quivers
<Kit> 6Nephilim sits down to rest for a moment, wondering when the fuck she installed an autopilot.
<Kit> <Nephilim> You guys at least going to start climbing?!
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit turns and begins to edge back the way home. "W-Well, I-I think I will go...now...
<Marcus> 6* Valen glances towards Lit. Where will you go?
01<DeathStar> <Lit> Back to the thief's guild and w-wait on m-mistress?
<Marcus> 6* Valen nods. If that's what you choose. I cannot force you to stay after all.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "We going to use the stone straight when we get there? Bringing Lit across right now might just be a waste of time if we're not."
<Marcus> 6* Valen shrugs to Kaelan and moves to go climb the ropes like a regular ass man.
<Kit> <Nephilim> Was kind of the idea-- or why the hell did we come here instead of staying in the guild to begin with?
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "To find the stone while the others went to see Yeger and save everyone some time."
<Seraphna> * Kaelan sighs and starts to use the ropes to climb along after them.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit trembles, alone now; and it is a maze down here
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit turns and begins to follow - and can't climb the rope
<Seraphna> * Kaelan stops adn looks back.
<Marcus> 6* Valen lets Kaelan go first and turns his back to Lit. Hang onto me.
<Seraphna> * Kaelan moves on when Vale does this.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit clings to VAlen tightly, cutting off air
<Marcus> 6* Valen gacks and waves hsi hands. Less tight! Less tight! 6He gurgles out.
<Kit> 6Nephilim grumbles, then goes to set up the last of the 'easy mode' for them
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit loosens up just a fraction
<Marcus> 6* Valen takes a breath and then begins to climb carefully.
01<DeathStar> 6* Nephilim, when she gets on top of the side ways building, would see an obstacle; the ceiling dips low here, all the way to the side-ways building, and to the left and right are walls of dirt from how the area caved in. However, she can judge, though, that where the ceiling dips against the side-ways buildings, that it only hits the half-way point, so that means (cont)
01<DeathStar> 6* half the building is under the caved in dirt roof, and may, in fact, not be buried on the other side -so she will need to go inside and find a way through
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit wails in fear, tightening again
01<DeathStar> 6* There's holes all on the top where she's at, so dipping inside is easy
<Marcus> 6* Valen makes a noise. Calm yourself or we're both in troubles. 6he tries to wheeze out.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit loosens up, trembling and begins to slip
<Kit> 6Nephilim uses her lit knife to look inside a bit better
<Marcus> 6* Valen pauses. Little tighter.
01<DeathStar> 6* Nephilim would see into a room, but due to being side-ways, everything has smashed against one end; an open door is in the room
<Marcus> <Valen> Wrap your legs around me.
<Seraphna> * Kaelan moves along quietly and carefully.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit does so
01<DeathStar> 6* Kaelan would easily catch up to Nephilim, unlike Valen
<Marcus> 6* Valen makes sure she's secure before he continues.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit whimpers the entire time
<Kit> <Nephilim> See anyway through?
<Marcus> <Valen> It'll be fine. We're going to make it. 6He keeps saying in as soothing a voice as he can manage.
01<DeathStar> 6* Valen finally reaches the tilted building; Lit lets go, panting and holding onto it, sighing in relief; then slides down the rope to the ground, holding the ground lovingly
<Marcus> 6* Valen gets and amused looks and slides down.
<Seraphna> * Kaelan slides down as well.
<Kit> <Nephilim> Valen, does this look any different from you?
<Kit> <Nephilim> The door's propped shut (or something)
<Seraphna> * Kaelan tilts her head.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit then walks up to the nexty building Nephilim is on, the sde-ways one
01<DeathStar> 6* She waits for Valen to climb it
<Marcus> <Valen> Hm? 6He moves over and lets Lit get on before climbing.
<Seraphna> * Kaelan makes her way after them.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit clings as he gets up top; Kaelan, who made it to Nephilim, then ran back to Valen, now gets back to her again
<Seraphna> * kaelan totally wanted to make sure they were okay with all that wailing.
<Kit> <Nephilim> We need to get through this building.
<Marcus> <Valen> Follow me. 6he begins to move foward again.
01<DeathStar> 6* Once on the side-ways building, Lit pants on top of it, eyeing all the various holes
<Marcus> <Valen> We'll slide into one of these holes to get through. 6He comes up to one and peers down inside.
<Kit> <Nephilim> Do you have parchment on you?
<Marcus> <Valen> I...don't have a need for it.
01<DeathStar> 6* The room Valen peers in has all the objects smashed against one side of it, due to the side-ways nature of the building; the door is swung open, naturally. They should probably tie a rope to the edge and lower, though, since getting back to the hole in the ceiling would be hard
<Kit> <Nephilim> Yes, we go through randomly without mapping our direction so we're lost on the return?
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit opens her sack and hands NHephilim the parchment, shaking still
<Marcus> <Valen> Only one direction Nephilim. Tie a rope here and we can use it to climb back out.
<Kit> 6Nephilim blinks, stroking Tranquility's arm gently.
<Kit> <Nephilim> Maybe not the inside, genius." 6She tucks it into her breasts, then sets up the last rope to allow them down to a window
<Seraphna> * Kaelan frowns a bit. "Tranq brought a lot... maybe she has something we can use?"
<Marcus> 6* Valen eyes her for a moment, then glances to Kaeland. He hns and then nods to Neph, shifting to climb down first.
<Marcus> 6* Valen pauses. Lit would you like to ride down on my back?
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit takes a breath and takes the Valen, sliding in bravely into the room, peering at everything againsto ne wall due to the building being side-ways
01<DeathStar> 6* She then waits patiently at the open door
<Marcus> 6* Valen glances around and steps over by Lit.
01<DeathStar> 6* On the other side of the door, since the hallway isn't going the proper angle, it's like a giant shaft now - with another door on the other side. But that door is closed and they need to get inside that room to get to the end of the building they need
<Kit> 6Nephilim slides downa nd hops in the window
<Kit> 6Nephilim walks over, after marking their route so far from the starter point, checking to see if she can open it
01<DeathStar> 6* With a big gap, she cna't exactly reach over to see
<Seraphna> * Kaelan carefully follows after Nephilim.
<Marcus> 6* Valen climbs through the open door, peerin around.
01<DeathStar> 6* Valen climbs through then begins to fall down the hallway shaft.
<Marcus> 6* Valen jerks to catch himself before he falls.
<Kit> 6Nephilim reaches to help Valen up.
<Marcus> <Valen> Another rope is in order I believe.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit quivers; again, the GM will describe it
01<DeathStar> > 6* On the other side of the door, since the hallway isn't going the proper angle, it's like a giant shaft now - is another door on the other side. But that door is closed and they need to get inside that room to get to the end of the building they need
<Kit> <Nephilim> If you got a good running start think you could kick it open?
<Marcus> <Valen> We'll need some rope and we'll have to slide down to the bottom.
<Kit> <Nephilim> Or we can just get the door across open and go through.
<Marcus> 6* Valen blinks and glances up. Oh...6he rubs the back of his neck, embarassed.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit quivers at the idea of going down the dark shaft
01<DeathStar> <Lit> I-If I die, w-will you g-give my gold to m-my sisters?
<Marcus> <Valen> Maybe we can knock it open with some magic. Anyone got a bit of Earth spike?
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "We won't let that happen dear."
<Kit> <Nephilim> You have to live so you can have me meet your sisters, Tranquility.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "I have Gale Blast."
01<DeathStar> <Lit> I-I put their l-location in y-your st-stuff
<Kit> <Nephilim> You're going to introduce me personally.
<Marcus> <Valen> Try it. 6he steps to the side.
<Kit> 6Nephilim eyes Valen, then attempts to manifest Earth Step across the small distance.
<Marcus> <Valen> I...didn't know you knew earth magic.
01<DeathStar> 6* It doesn ot work here
<Kit> <Nephilim> I don't know anything useful-- apparently.
<Marcus> <Valen> Kaelan. 6He waves a hand in front of her face now.
<Marcus> <Valen> Hn. You women and your spacing out.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit sulks, trembling
<Kit> 6Nephilim elbows Valen in the kidney, then gets a running start and leaps out, slamming her weight against the door-- then backflipping back into the first room if it doesn't give.
<Seraphna> * Kaelan sighs, "Sorry./"
01<DeathStar> 6* Nephilim slams into the door and knocks it open
<Marcus> 6* Valen urks at being elbowed and stumbles to the side, he slowly leans back around to see if Nephilim died. Oh you did it!
<Kit> <Nephilim> I feel like biting you again.
<Kit> 6Nephilim leaps the short distance into the new room.
01<DeathStar> <Lit> H-How will I get across?
<Seraphna> * Kaelan blushes, looking embarrased, she shakes it off.
<Marcus> <Valen> It's only sexy if you purr. 6He lifts up Lit. Hold on.
01<DeathStar> 6* The new room is messed up like the first, but Nephilim would notice the wall they need to get through is weakened and something could destroy it if big enough - like throwing Kaelan into it
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit holds on tightly, closing her eyes
<Marcus> 6* Valen smiles and takes a deep breath, shifting to leap across as well.
<Kit> <Nephilim> Let's toss Kaelan into that wall-- it'll break.
<Seraphna> * Kaelan frowns and heads after Nephilim, leaping across after her.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "We could... or I could use that Gale Blast now."
01<DeathStar> 6* Valen reaches the room; he lands in such a way that when KAelan leaps in, she gets hit and flies into the wall
01<DeathStar> 6* It breaks open and she goes through it and out of sight, falling out of view
<Marcus> 6* Valen blinks. I hope she's not dead. Mercy would be sad.
01<DeathStar> 6* Lit passes out
<Kit> <Nephilim> Not... quite what I had in mind. Kaaael, you alive?" 6She walks over, peering down
<Marcus> 6* Valen blinks and peers to Lit and seems satisfied she's not dead, he peers around and looks into climbing down.
<Seraphna> * Kaelan looks up... if she can.
01<DeathStar> 6* Kaelan would have found herself having fallen down a story, but the gorund is higher on the other side than the first, so it wasn't a long drop. Ahead of them, Nephilim would feel the stone is in there
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "Mostly... bite Valen for me."
<Kit> <Nephilim> Good girl. You're not allowed to die.
<Marcus> <Valen> I didn't do anything!
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "I try."
<Marcus> 6* Valen hmphs and attempts to get down as safely as one can with a passed out maid.
01<DeathStar> 6* The building with the stone feeling is messed up; the top half is gone, one side is slanted, one side is on it's side; the stone comes from under it, though, and they'd see a crack in the ground running along the building length
01<DeathStar> 6* Even though it's only one story, a rope tied at the window would be useful getting back in
01<DeathStar> 6* Jsut saying
<Kit> 6Nephilim fishes a fourth rope from Tranquility to do so
<Marcus> 6* Valen smiles to Nephilim and nods.
<Kit> <Nephilim> See anything down there, Kael?!
<Seraphna> * Kaelan gets up, dusting herself off. "It's not a long drop."
<Marcus> 6* Valen slides down after Neph secures the rope.
<Kit> <Nephilim> I meant ahead!!
<Kit> 6Nephilim slides down after a moment.
01<DeathStar> 6* Now that they are back on the ground, they just need to approach the messed up building where the stone feeling comes from; the crack in the ground is big enough for a person to go in
<Marcus> 6* Valen peers around and mvoes forward towards the messed up building.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "A crack?"
<Marcus> 6* Valen tilts his head. Such damage.
<Kit> 6Nephilim psshes at Kaelan and runs ahead to slide in through the crack
01<DeathStar> 6* Nephilim then plummets; since the crack is deep
<Kit> <Nephilim> Aieee!
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "...I... did tell there there was a crack just now... right?"
01<DeathStar> 6* It would seem their friend and Valen's lover might be dead now
<Marcus> 6* Valen blinks and drops Lit onto the ground, grabs a rope and jerks to throw it down toward Nephilim, if he was fast enough.
<Seraphna> * Kaelan moves over to look down the crack. "Neph...?"
01<DeathStar> 6* Valen would not be fast enough, but the rope does drop down; he'll need to secure it and climb down after his elven beauty
01<DeathStar> (not saying he drops it all,)
<Marcus> 6* Valen lets out a sigh, looking worried. He shifts to secure it and grabs Lit, then slides down.
01<DeathStar> 6* Valen slides down quickly from this angle and he lands on something soft; he'd see, via glowstone - and leaving Kaelan in the dark to feel for the rope - he's touching Neph's boobies - this wakes her back up
01<DeathStar> 6* Nephilim has an aching head ache from the fall
<Kit> <Nephilim> O-Oww...
<Seraphna> * Kaelan feels about for the rope.
01<DeathStar> 6* The boobie is very nice
<Marcus> 6* Valen shifts off of her. That was dumb.
01<DeathStar> 6* Kaelan finds it
01<DeathStar> 6* With the light down there, Nephilim and Valen see the stone - and why it didn't work before when Nephilim tried to get near Oas. Rubble is on top of it, preventing teleporting. It'll need to be pushed off
<Marcus> 6* Valen sets Lit aside and moves over to the rubble. He hmms and begins to shift it slightly, wary of causing a rockslide or a cave-in.
<Seraphna> * Kaelan makes her way down the rope carefully. "Dark up there..."
01<DeathStar> 6* Valen would also see how Nephili mdidn't die - her luck had her land on a cushion. The only cushion down there
<Kit> <Nephilim> Yeah, yeah... just getting impatient-- did you grope me?" 6She blinks, feeling herself up curiously.
01<DeathStar> 6* In addition to a cushion, it has a shiny gold coin on it
<Marcus> <Valen> If I had groped you, you would remember it. 6He says proudly.
<Kit> <Nephilim> It feels like I got groped.
<Kit> 6Nephilim picks up the coin, gasping and forgetting all about groping.
01<DeathStar> 6* Kaelan reaches the bottom with the others; now, they will need to clear it in their minis over Wed
01<DeathStar> -END-
