<DeathStar> 2.23.2863
<DeathStar> Having a meal in glorious Gemet, Jubei's team is treated to the dolcette tones of the Sky People horn. Tones that last until Hoko's monstrous lungs destroy the horn, causing her to need to ask for another one. The Sky People come down in a glorious airship and ask for what they want. Besides a new horn, the others ask for the right to fly in the skies and the ship needed to do so. They pause, but agree on the condition they pass a trial. Boarding the ship, Jubei's team takes to the skies.
<DeathStar> On the way up, the sky people cloak their ship to avoid a gigantic flying monster like a serpent queen, a leviathan of the skies. Passing by it they arrive at a temple filled with more Sky People. It becomes more than apparent that the Sky People are doing something to guide their true forms. They are warned the trial will challenge them and possibly destroy them in the process, then given mana water to drink and led into the trial.
<DeathStar> They first encounter a Vision Jubei, who challenges Jubei with the flaws of her goals, that she isn't on the quest to save the world or the leylines, that she merely wants to get what she wants in her own selfish desires. Again, the warning that the Mana Egg will work, but cause massive tragedy to do so is given, Jubei meets her challenger with anger and the vision slashes at her, Lin taking the blow and falling, seemingly dead. As if her part is over, she is warned again that her current path will lead to the ruin of others. Moira's trail vision comes and challenges her isolation, how she refuses to get close to others and doesn't form relationships. Jubei interrupts this, attacking the vision, and is cast out of the trial.
<DeathStar> Moira accepts this, but doesn't seem to say she intends to fix it or try to get to know the others better. But because she doesn't lash out in anger at taunts, she is allowed to stay with the group, even if she fails. Next comes Belit's vision, which challenges her manipulative personality and her always defaulting to trickery before trying anything else. This attitude causes others to have difficulty trusting her, and that reality is met without doubt from Belit. However, like Moira, she expresses no interest to change in her ways, she says that's the life of a pirate. Another failts, but is allowed to continue.
<DeathStar> Finally, Angel and Lia are met with their visions. Angel is confronted with the reality of her position and the gravity of the fact that her mission is only a temporary respite, the cage she feels is real and she will have to return to it some day. Though she knows what she wishes, she also accepts the winds of change and that she must eventually set herself back in the place she doesn't want to be. This seems acceptable, she is given her lesson and accepts it.
<DeathStar> Lia is confronted by her vision which tells her she is dependant and needy, that she relies on others for her strength. She overreaches and in turn puts those she takes on at risk, and risks her relations with them trying to get all she can grab. Because of this fault, she is due for failure and doom. Lia acknowledges this, accepts that she has already gone too far in trying to fill the hole in her life left by Rory. She knows her path dooms her and not only acknowledges the need for change, but says she needs to accept what she has and start sorting things out. The vision is in agreement with her, and advises her to continue questioning herself, to not overreach, to not try and take on more, and she as well is given her lesson and accepts it.
<DeathStar> With at least two of them passing the trial, the group awakens to find it was all a spirit walk. THey are given access to the Leyline where Jubei gains Wind Mana to add to the Rune Blade. They are accepted and invited to join the Sky People at their city, where they will learn more about them. But first, they take the two vessels they are given and head back down for Amatsune. There they will go after the Holy Leyline, and add another element to the blade.

And Now...

<DeathStar> 2.24.2863
<DeathStar> Location: Gemet Palace
<DeathStar> 6* The next day, after a nice big breakast, the group has been told that the leyline is north of the palace near Zuzu's house, where she purposefully built it - inside the palace grounds for protection but not near the palace itself in case an enemy force attacked and focused on the palace.
<DeathStar> 6* Angel tinkers on their ship, since being near leylines injures her, and Lyn, Lin, and Maka get ready to head the mile north of the palace, since Cleo and Urr are now married
<Seraphna> * Lia holds Maka's hand and smiles.
<DeathStar> 6* Zuzu walks with them as they northward, humming
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok walks along quietly
<Nyaomi> <Mugi> Home, huh?
<Jackieness> <Moira> *marches on ahead to the north*
<DeathStar> <Zuzu> I'm not just a cute little sexy fox.
<DeathStar> 6* They pass along gardens and nice little trees as they begin to leave the palace behind and the boys' training areas and stables and other stuff, heading closer to Zuzu's property
<Chain> 6*passing the majestic nests of the woodechs
<Seraphna> Lia> "So what's your house like Zuzu? I've been here before due to the campus but I don't think I've been there."
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok makes a face at the noises
<Chain> 6*ech....ECH...echechechechech
<DeathStar> 6* Melody lands in their nest with Azur and Kaji
<DeathStar> 6* They open their mouths to eat
<DeathStar> 6* Blowing fire
<Chain> 6*a group of woodechs are known as Legion, there are many more
<DeathStar> 6* As they approach they see a small little cozy hut like place that is two stories it appears; but Zuzu goes around the quaint dwelling
<DeathStar> 6* The queens eat the chicken tasting birds
<Nyaomi> <Mugi> I never knew to visit the leyline after moving here with Zuzu.. explains why I felt my light artes were so much stronger here.
<Seraphna> * Lia giggles. "Mmm, be glad they weren't cowmoo birds, they'd have been eaten even faster."
<kalonZombie> <Narok> They were not eaten fast enough if you ask me
<DeathStar> 6* Zuzu moves down hill into a small grove
<DeathStar> 6* Passing the various trees, which have been pruned above to look like a tit
<DeathStar> 6* Two tits to be exact, thoguh the group can't see it
<Seraphna> * Lia waves the Queens back as she follows.
<DeathStar> 6* Azur pops out of nowhere on Jubei. The Rune Knight and Rose Knights follow quietly
<Jackieness> <Moira> *eyes the tit trees*
<DeathStar> 6* The trees are thick and green despite winter
<kalonZombie> <Narok> Odd.
<DeathStar> 6* As they move down inside the grove, they see the leyline, fairly filled still; not as much as the Wind Leyline, but not bad - the holy light shining bright and giving the area a holy aura.
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> There it is...
<Seraphna> Lia> "Even this one is drained..."
<DeathStar> <Zuzu> You call this drained?! Look how high it is!
<DeathStar> 6* Zuzu sniffs
<Seraphna> Lia> "It's very well filled, but still even some has been taken here... it worries me."
<DeathStar> 6* Zuzu huffs. "I bet ours is higher than yours."
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok looks a bit uneasy, due to his darkness nature
<DeathStar> 6* Lyn kneels near the leyline, studying it; it's high enough one can lean down and touch it
<Seraphna> Lia> "I think it is."
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> It's a valid concern, Lady Lyn
<Nyaomi> 6Jubei kneels and draws the Rune Blade, reaching out to dip the blade a little
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok gives it a wide birth
<DeathStar> 6* The mana begins to make sucking sounds as the blade draws it in and it glows
<Jackieness> <Moira> "Nice to have aleyline that doens't explode when Jubei charges the sword."
<DeathStar> 6* A slot fills up and it looks like it's going to start on the next
<Seraphna> Lia> "P-Perhaps that was all that was ever needed."
<Seraphna> Lia> "You'll want to pull it out JUbers, or plan to use the slot up."
<Nyaomi> 6Jubei allows it to fill one more, then stands
<DeathStar> <Lyn> *has not taken her eyes off the leyline*
<DeathStar> <Lyn> There was a noticeable drop if you look hard enough
<DeathStar> <Lyn> *She points at a spot* I was watching that rock and it went below it a little
<DeathStar> <Lyn> Not enough that most would see.
<Jackieness> <Moira> "So this one bubbles up."
<Seraphna> Lia> "Maybe someone is taking mana in a similar way."
<DeathStar> <Lin> So taking two slots drains it noticeablely...?
<DeathStar> <Lin> Is it because the sword takes a lot of mana, or...?
<Nyaomi> 6Jubei blinks at Lyn saying that
<kalonZombie> <Narok> Perhaps.
<Seraphna> Lia> "It's definately more than any one person can handle at a time."
<DeathStar> <Zuzu> Zuuuu
<DeathStar> <Zuzu> We do not use a lot of holy magik here since we have our goddesses
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> Forgive me... I thought there would be no harm in acquiring two in case we needed it for some reason on our travels.
<DeathStar> <Lyn> She's right; that might explain why we have more mana than other nations
<DeathStar> <Lyn> Also, Jubei, I think there would have been a drop if you took one
<DeathStar> <Lyn> One more at this point means little
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> Holy magik is quite often used for healing, after all, and we could rely on it in an emergency and not need to return
<Seraphna> Lia> "General use is slowly draining things over time, I think, though even Anora which was getting dangerously low had to do a lot to show noticable losses at a time."
<DeathStar> <Lin> Anora does use tech magik - you think that has something to do with it?
<kalonZombie> <Narok> It might. 6*He says, looking like he wants to get out of here
<Seraphna> Lia> "A contributor, but not the real reason for the recent critical levels."
<Jackieness> <Moira> "Is it possible that all of this mana comes from a common source?"
<DeathStar> 6* Zuzu leads them back up the slope
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok follows her
<Seraphna> Lia> "Some believe the mana is Aschae... or a part of her."
<DeathStar> <Lyn> Hm.
<Jackieness> <Moira> "I also recall a chamber in the center of Tareh where the old gods had imprisoned the moon goddess. I wonder if the mana is there as well."
<DeathStar> <Lyn> Anyway, the other countries' leylines are as follows: Anora is lightning, Badelf is - or was - Fire. I do not know if their leyline exists anymore, you'd have to search their land. Blantress is water. Al'rhyl is also Holy - it might be worth checking their levels if you want. The Demon Realm is dark. But from what you told me their leyline is likely hidden in the True Realm. And Umbal is unknown. And Ama'dorei is earth.
<DeathStar> 6* Zuzu leads them back past her house
<DeathStar> 6* As they walk back toward the palace, Lyn muses, and the Knights look around, the RUne one looking over the sword in Jubeilation
<Seraphna> Lia> "And Anora is lightning..."
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok looks much more at ease at Zuzu's house
<DeathStar> <Lyn> Yes. I began with that one
<Seraphna> Lia> "Sorry, thinking out loud."
<DeathStar> 6* Upon arriving at the palace, Angel is tinkering with the ship, talking to Hoko and Zun
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> Something on your mind, Lia?
<Seraphna> Lia> "Umbal is likely the same as another nation."
<DeathStar> 6* Having food and supplies put on the ship
<DeathStar> <Lyn> We might want to avoid it - if Umbal uses corrupting tactics their leyline could be corrupted.
<DeathStar> <Lyn> It would be mad to get the Rune Blade corrupted.
<DeathStar> *bad
<Seraphna> Lia> "I've always wondered if nations with similar elements share the same leyline, just differen veins, or if there are multiple leylines of some elements."
<Jackieness> <Moira> "Any chance that maybe Umbal doens't have aleyline and that's why they are so pissed off at the world?"
<kalonZombie> <Narok> Unlikely.
<Seraphna> Lia> "Unlikely, everyone seems to have mana."
<DeathStar> 6* Lyn and Lia walk onto the ship and Zuzu walks up beside Hoko
<DeathStar> 6* The Three Knights walk up and Maka wanders up the ship
<DeathStar> 6* Angel glances at Jubei and the others. "So what Kingdom are we going to first?"
<DeathStar> 6* Due to Finn's love for Hoko, a few of the delivery people try to move Hoko onto the ship subtlely
<Seraphna> * Lia wiggles her tail at Maka.
<Jackieness> <Moira> "Unless they steal it."
<DeathStar> 6* Lest Ailee kill Finn
<DeathStar> 6* Maka grabs it
<DeathStar> 6* Hard
<Nyaomi> 6Jubei peers at the rune blade, examining what elements they have already
<Chain> 6*Hoko blinks
<DeathStar> 6* Ice, Wind, Holy, Holy
<DeathStar> 6* Hoko is put by the food containers
<Chain> <Hoko> if you truely need Finn I wont stop you
<Chain> <Hoko> But I am needed here
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok walks on, moving to his and Bel's room
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> Why don't we set course for Badelf-- we may as well survey it from above.
<Chain> 6*Hoko takes her things and her stuff off
<Seraphna> Lia> "Plus the leyline is probably exposed now..."
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> We can note the true damage of the explosion on our way to Blantress. If something of the Leyline remains exposed, it'll cover two birdchirps with one stone.
<Jackieness> <Moira> *moves on board* "Truth be told, I'm hoping we find Amazo camped out and roasting food on the fire leyline..."
<DeathStar> <Angel> Well, we'll pass over Anora on the way to Badelf.
<DeathStar> <Angel> From this location
<DeathStar> <Angel> Wouldn't it make more sense to go to Anora first?
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> Fair enough.
<DeathStar> <Angel> Alright - and we know where a leyline is there
<DeathStar> 6* She has Jubei power up the crystal while Finn says goodbye to his big girl
<DeathStar> 6* And then Angel lifts the ship up, steam coming out the back and the treadmills turning, as it lifts up - puff puff puff
<Seraphna> Lia> There was one under Cromwell... and another exposed one that was run across before.
<DeathStar> 6* Angel adjusting the masts and throwing the wheel, eyes closed and turning the ship
<Seraphna> * Lia pulls out a map and marks the locations as the group found them before.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Mercy
<DeathStar> 6* Zegretta and Juliet work on getting the armies ready, many heading to the ports to ship out and Juliet preparing to head back to her castle by now when there is a commotion outside
<DeathStar> 6* Cersei moves outside the castle in her armor
<Seraphna> * Kaelan blinks and peers up, grabbing her sword again. She moves out to check on the noise as well.
<Jackieness> <Asha> "Whatever it is, I didn't do it!" *spoken as she joins the others*
<DeathStar> 6* An air ship is landing, but there is no visible crew on board.
<DeathStar> 6* This one looks to have balloons and seems slower and older than the leyline group's
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "What on Tareh..."
<Seraphna> * Kaelan moves closer, curiously.
<kalonZombie> 6*Lucky quietly moves up to join Kaelan
<Nyaomi> <Wyrd> What is that, Cersei?
<DeathStar> 6* Cersei walks over to it and onto it. "It seems to be a ship -- which can fly."
<kalonZombie> (Make that Sal)
<DeathStar> 6* There is a note on it, and he picks it up.
<Jackieness> <Asha> "A flying boat. And I see not a living soul on board. Maybe its haunted and has treasure on board!"
<DeathStar> 6* Cersei reads it quietly. "The other team has gotten the permission of wind; you may use this temporarily in your assignment in the planet's protection."
<DeathStar> <Juliet> It seems the other group got one of these for us too
<DeathStar> 6* Jean hops onboard with Vixen and the cubs, looking around. Vixen walks along lathergically
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "This... may help us indeed."
<kalonZombie> <Sal> Sweet, free ride
<Jackieness> <Asha> "Captain! Called it!"
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "Hrm. Then if the ship goes down you get to go down with it."
<kalonZombie> <Sal> I call whatever room has the comdiest bed for two people.
<DeathStar> <Juliet> Indeed; we can take a small task force quicker to the Empire, then to the Demon Realm while the main force sails
<kalonZombie> *comfiest
<DeathStar> 6* Mimi eyes Sal
<DeathStar> 6* Lessa walks along the deck, musing
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "Presumably our little group."
<kalonZombie> <Sal> What? I'm bunking with Rica.
<DeathStar> <Mimi> Yes. You seem to make a lot of such comments
<Seraphna> * Rica lands Sprite nearby and hops off her, shrinking Spite to ride on her shoulder.
<kalonZombie> <Sal> Because me and Rica are a couple, yes.
* Aqua has joined #Session428
<Chain> 6*Umi nizzles Vixen
<Seraphna> Rica> *pets Sprite* You're my first love, Sprite dear.
<DeathStar> 6* Mimi moves over to the wheel. Juliet orders people to board the ship and get it stocked up, while JEan finds a room big enough for her and Umi with the kids. Vixen nuzzles back tiroedly
<Nyaomi> 6Wyrd finds one that her and Cersei can have privacy in
<DeathStar> <Cersei> *to Asha* Do you think you can learn how it flies?
<DeathStar> 6* She eyes the balloons and ship mast
<Seraphna> * Kaelan moves over to Zegretta and nuzzles her softly. "Seems we'll have to have our goodbye time sooner rather than later now."
<DeathStar> 6* Zegretta nods and takes her hands. "Be safe."
<Jackieness> <Asha> *boards the ship* "Oh, I think so."
<Seraphna> * Kaelan draws her into a kiss.
<DeathStar> 6* Jean, once in the bed room, checks their equipment. "It seems we will be in the Empire sooner than we anticipated." 6* She peers at their children."
<Chain> 6*Umi curls up with her pups
<Chain> 6*Umi nods quietly
<DeathStar> <Jean> No matter what comes to pass, remember only two things matter: the children, and our past selves. And, if necessary, you
<Seraphna> * Rica boards and takes Sprite to a room, closing the door.
<Jackieness> <Asha> "Let me see how this works." *moves over to the wheel and examines*
<Chain> <Umi> you matter to me too
<kalonZombie> 6*Sal follows Rica in
<Chain> 6*Umi looks up at Jean
<DeathStar> <Jean> I know. But if we cannot align things properly, I might have to take a direct hand. We came to the future for a reason and sooner or later, and I believe we knew it was likely one of us - probably I - would have to interfere directly with whatever sent us forward.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "I'll com home."
<Seraphna> *come
<DeathStar> <Zegretta> You better
<Jackieness> <Asha> "When I was a child, we would fold paper into a bowl. Then we would hold the open end over a candle... if you did it right, the paper would float. We also had kites."
<DeathStar> <Mimi> IS that right?
<Chain> 6*Umi nods and rises before holding Jean
<DeathStar> 6* She studies a green crystal
<DeathStar> 6* Jean holds her back
<Chain> <Umi> please just try and return to me
<Seraphna> * Kaelan nods and pats Zegretta's tummy gently.
<DeathStar> <Jean> When we get there, we will study the situation of our past selves, see what is wrong with each and why they are not bumping and making babies, then try to see what made us go forward with the kids
<DeathStar> <Jean> Then we will step forward
<DeathStar> <Jean> We have time still together.
<DeathStar> 6* She touches Vixen and focuses what energy she has to give her energy back
<DeathStar> 6* But it's clear each time it works less and less time
<Chain> 6*Umi kisses her
<Chain> <Umi> I will be at yourside
<DeathStar> 6* Jean returns the kiss deeply
<DeathStar> <Jean> And I yours
<Jackieness> <Asha> "Mmm-hmmm. Just need to figure out which mechanism controls what. Like picking a lock."
<DeathStar> <Mimi> The wheel seems to fly it, but I think this crtystal powers it somehow
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "My love. My Queen."
<DeathStar> 6* Zegretta pats her bum
<DeathStar> <Zegretta> That look ready to lift off.
<DeathStar> <Zegretta> Be safe
<DeathStar> 6* The people finish loading food and supplies
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "I'll try." *she smiles*
<DeathStar> 6* Juliet puts the sleeping JAmes on the ship
<DeathStar> 6* While Lessa guards Umi and Jean's door
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "Keep watchful... I want to know my wife is safe while away."
<Aqua> *James grumbles "I'm awake now."
<DeathStar> <Zegretta> I will
<Aqua> *Puggy plays with his siblings
<Seraphna> * Kaelan pauses and peers around. "Where's Fi Fi?"
<DeathStar> <Juliet> *Smiles* Of course. You are leaving earlier than anticipated. Be safe out there, my baby's daddy
<Jackieness> <Asha> "Must be mana-powered then. LEt's go make sure we're full equipped for the trip and then we find a caster."
<DeathStar> <Zegretta> I think she is inside, sad you are going
<DeathStar> 6* Mimi focuses wind mana into it
<Nyaomi> <Wyrd> Cersei, Cersei-- I found us quarters
<DeathStar> 6* And the crystal glows; the ship shakes and begins to lift off
<DeathStar> 6* Cersei looks over and smiles, then jerks as they lift up
<DeathStar> <Mimi> Oops!
<Seraphna> Kaelan> *peers back at the ship* "Time to go... give her my love." *she moves over to board*
<DeathStar> 6* The ship begins to fly forward with no one at the controls, right for the statues of the ancient heroes
<Jackieness> <Asha> *grabs the controls* "The captsian did not give the order!"
<Jackieness> <Asha> *Turns the wheel portside* "Hard to port!"
<Chain> 6*Jynx nuzzles Vixen, looking her over
<Aqua> *Puggy growls at a new stuffed fox-yip toy they have
<DeathStar> 6* Asha turns them and they begin to fly up
<Seraphna> * Kaelan holds on. "I can tell this trip is going to be fuuuun."
<DeathStar> 6* Soaring in the clouds as the balloon gets bigger with the mana energy
<DeathStar> 6* Mimi holds onto Asha
<DeathStar> 6* Fate clings to the underside of the ship, hissing
<DeathStar> 6* Cersei steadies herself
<Jackieness> <Asha> "Alright... back down?" *tries pushing the wheel down*
<DeathStar> <Cersei> No, let us continue - we have supplies
<DeathStar> 6* She peers out
<DeathStar> <Cersei> We are committed
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<Nyaomi> 6Wyrd pauses, walking to the edge of the deck and blinks. Mouthing Fate's name in confusion
<DeathStar> Location: Desert of Sinai (intro to follow)
<DeathStar> 6* As the caravan travels across the hot desert, moving slowly through it, Empress Jean fans herself, while Tsuki has her face in Ama's tits, looking miserible since leaving South Sinai. Bridgette looks a little annoyed at this part of the adventure
<Aqua> *Butler relaxes and suns, loving the heat
<Nyaomi> 6Auna fans Jean, panting herself even in their skimpy, decorative empire clothing
<Seraphna> * Truth fans herself with fox tail.
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler walks along happily, loving the heat as well, feeling at home
<Chain> 6*Ama gives her twin cool refeshing water
<Chain> 6*Ama doesnt even bother being dressed
<kalonZombie> <Thara> Amaaaaaaaa, where's miiiiiiiiiiine
<DeathStar> 6* Jean stares at Ama's tits bounce up and down
<DeathStar> <Jean> So big
<Chain> <Ama> the other is free Thara
<Chain> 6*she offers it to Thara
<kalonZombie> 6*Thara takes itr
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> ...Has anyone told the goddess chick that if you don't cover up you can get really nasty sunburns and shit?
<Nyaomi> <Wyrd> She is a goddess of sun. I do not think it applies
<Aqua> Butler> She's the god of the sun
<DeathStar> (W-wyrd?)
<Chain> 6*IT.AINT.NO.THING. to Ama
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Point.
<Aqua> Butler> Besides, hows else do you get an even tan
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, there's a shaking sound and Rachal turns to see what loosk like a sand worm creature they all rode on once coming at them. The creature smashes into their army of Templars and throw them far and wide with its long body, sending them flying into a whirlpool of sand
<Seraphna> Truth> "Should truth go naked? Swords aren't really bothered by weather."
<DeathStar> 6* Riding it is Parita
<Seraphna> * Truth blinks. "Is that..."
<DeathStar> 6* Jean jerks and glares in rtage as the templars flail as they sink out of sight in the whirl pool of sand far away.
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Parita?! What the hell?
<Nyaomi> <Auna> The soldiers!!
<Chain> 6*Ama turns to look
<DeathStar> 6* The other Templars jerk and begin to chase the sandworm as it rides off, Parita doing Leruste taunts in her sexy sand outfit
<Nyaomi> 6Auna rises, bringing out her tome and starts to chant, swirling in light mana
<Aqua> *Butler jumps up and whips on her desert cloack, grabbing her rod and attempting to soothe the worm
<Seraphna> * Truth blinks and tries to pull some back before they get too far with wind mana spells.
<Seraphna> Truth> "Why is she doing that..."
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> I don't know but I'm going to find out.
<DeathStar> 6* Many run off out of sight, while Truth manages to bring a handful back - their ranks decimated so it's mainly just them. Jean narrows her eyes
<DeathStar> <Jean> I will have her
<kalonZombie> 6*He wind tries to wind jump up to her
<DeathStar> 6* Jean leaps out, floating
<Chain> <Ama> Tsuki, Thara
<DeathStar> 6* And dashes after her, like she's flying, using wind magik like it's not been used before
<Nyaomi> 6Auna summons a mana serpent and rides it after Jena
<Chain> <Ama> we should try and get those that have flled back
<Nyaomi> <Auna> L-Lady Angel, wait!
<DeathStar> <Scurr> Sucrr.
<DeathStar> <Bridgette> And there she goes
<kalonZombie> <Thara> Do we have to?
<DeathStar> <Rachael> Leruste...
<Seraphna> * Truth blinks and goes fox form, racing after them.
<DeathStar> 6* Rachael tries to keep up
* Aqua has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection)
* Aqua has joined #Session428
<Seraphna> * Truth pulls Rachael onto her back.
<Chain> <Ama> yes
<kalonZombie> <Thara> Fiiiiiine.
<Aqua> *Butler focuses hard on sending a soothing noncombative feeling to the gints skurr
<Chain> 6*Ama rises and pullls a robe on before flying after those that ran
<kalonZombie> 6*Thara follows
* Aqua has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection)
* Aqua has joined #Session428
<kalonZombie> 6*Leruste keeps trying to reach Parita
<DeathStar> 6* Tsuki floats after, her shadowy looking distorted
<Aqua> *Butler grabs ont Ama as she flies
<DeathStar> 6* Parita rides fast, too fast too be caught by the others with the sandworm's speed, but with Jean using the wind magik as a wind bullet, she somehow does and rams into the worm without mercy, making it cry out and throw Parita, who bounces into some ruins nearby
<DeathStar> 6* Jean lands at them and walks ina fter
<Chain> 6*Ama blinks
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler runs towards the ruins
<Seraphna> * Truth runs after them, worried in the Mark. <Jean...?>
<DeathStar> <Jean> <...>
<DeathStar> 6* Leruste reaches it
<DeathStar> 6* Then the gods due to their speed, then Truth/Rachael
<Nyaomi> <Auna> You brat, you'll pay!
<Nyaomi> 6Auna descends toward the ruins on the mana wyrm
<DeathStar> 6* Then Auna
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler sneaks around, looking for Parita
<Aqua> *Butler uses her tentacle rod to try and hold it still, focuses her power into it
<DeathStar> 6* As Leruste begins to enter, the ruins don't look that old surprisingly - the building seems to be post Angelic War
* Aqua has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection)
<Chain> 6*Ama lands
* Aqua has joined #Session428
<DeathStar> 6* The sandworm, already hurt and sulky, isn't hard to be tentacled. It makes worm noises at that and looks at Butler, annoyed
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler goes in slowly, drawing a single sword, if only to defend himself
<DeathStar> 6* Jean smashes through a wall, going another way
<Aqua> *Butler takes her other rod out and attempts again to calm it
<Seraphna> * Truth sets Rachael down and takes humanoid form again, she heads adter Jean.
<DeathStar> 6* It eats Butler, and is calmed
<DeathStar> (Joke)
<DeathStar> 6* The sandworm calms, just wanting to tend to it's massive bruise
<Chain> 6*Ama then looks for those that ran
<Aqua> *Butler moves over and attempts to heal it, rubbing it's carapace
<DeathStar> 6* All the templars that ran seem to have been sunk into the quicksand that vanished as fast as it came
<DeathStar> 6* As Leruste moves, and others, they would see on the walls what appears to be symbols of Leruste, Jean and the others, as well as the Gartareh gods, and Ama and her flock
<DeathStar> 6* As well as other religious figures along the walls
<DeathStar> <Tsuki> Hm
<DeathStar> <Tsuki> The quicksand seems to be right over the ruins
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler moves in deeper, looking around for Parita
<Chain> 6*Ama attempts diving in
<DeathStar> 6* Tsuki reels as Ama begins to throw massive amounts of dirt up
<kalonZombie> <Thara> There goes our water. 6*Sigh
<Seraphna> Truth> "What is this place... why would she lead us here?"
<DeathStar> 6* Leruste moves down the hallways, and up ahead is a collapsed tunnel, with just enough crawl space for someone tiny - through there is a hole in the ceiling as well that is 10 feet up. Truth no doubt catches up to Leruste
<Aqua> *Butler looks down and jumps, aiming for someone strong to catch her or brace her fall
<DeathStar> 6* Tsuki lets Butler hit
<DeathStar> 6* Focusing on Ama digging
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler wind jumps up to it to get through
<Aqua> *Butler brushes herself off "Thank you Tsuki" *She moves to folliw the group
<DeathStar> 6* Tsuki nods. "Welcome."
<Chain> 6*Ama keeps on underground
<DeathStar> 6* Ama hits soon stone - the ruins
<DeathStar> 6* While Leruste leaps up into an old meeting hall
<DeathStar> 6* There are tables set up and symbols on the walls, books and letters
<Chain> 6*Ama huffs and goes back up
<Aqua> *Butler attempts to squeeze through the collapsed tunnel
<Seraphna> * Truth pauses a moment to feel out where Jean is.
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler blinks, moving to look at the books and such
<DeathStar> 6* The symbol of the church, the old one, is on the wall, though it does't have Gartareh on it anymore, and Sinai is on it, with the kingdom is dropped.
<Aqua> Butler> Don't touch anything Leruste.
<DeathStar> 6* This books have tons of information frrom the old God Age and new theories on religions - all religons, even on the old gods, on Jean, on Ama, on new religious ideas like Yeger, demons, what came before
<DeathStar> 6* A lot of it written by Gyro
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Looks like Gyro's old meeting room.
<DeathStar> <Tsuki> Hm; why would she capture the templars into the ruins?
<DeathStar> 6* Tsuki looks over the stone that Ama reached
<DeathStar> 6* Rachael walks along the documents
<Aqua> Butler> The dry heat and this being sealed could've made everything very fragile
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler looks around, reading the documents as well
<DeathStar> <Rachael> Some of this is 400 years old
<Aqua> *Butler pulls on some glives
<DeathStar> <Rachael> Meeting summaries written down by them. If this is right, this is stuff the Church of Jean has never had a chance to alter
<Seraphna> * Truth peers around and taps her chin. "There may be information here useful to us."
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler looks at it "Parita must have wanted us to come here for a reason."
<Aqua> Butler> Probably to get the real history
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> There's something here that'll help us.
<Aqua> *Butler moves towarss the documents and begins to scan through a few quickly
<DeathStar> 6* the top paper, likely the last one, discusses concern about the Alrhylites becoming the dominating religion in the region and that Canaan, an ex-member, being a fanatic
<DeathStar> 6* An ex-member of this group
<Nyaomi> <Auna> S-So this stuff is all blasphemy..!
<Seraphna> Truth> "Seems unnecessary to send them into sinking sands... unless she brought them somewhere else." *she muses and blinks* Canaan?
<DeathStar> 6* The leader after Gyro states he fears he will lead the Alrhylites to taking the country over and not letting Sinai worship all religions anymore
<Seraphna> Truth> "Unaltered words are not blasphemy, they are truth."
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Blasphemy, history, toe-may-toe, to-mah-toe
<Aqua> Butler> Hmmmm
<Seraphna> Truth> "Well we know that he did succeed in taking over..."
<Aqua> *Butler carefully flips around in one of the books
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> So Canaan was the reason for the whole church of Jean stuff
<DeathStar> 6* There is one line of concern: Canaan has made it so his people are in office to take over in the future with no violence. And while it's true 60% of Sinai worships the angel, after he takes over, there will be no choices left. In the future, all will worship as they do
<Aqua> Butler> Okay, does anyone have a big sack in addition to their bag?
<DeathStar> <Rachael> If I recall from what we read they were around before Canaan
<DeathStar> <Rachael> He was the one who made the big push to make it an Empire
<Seraphna> Truth> "How did they change so many minds without violence?"
<DeathStar> <Rachael> Laws, I gather
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> What's his angle in all this, anyway?
<Aqua> *Butler takes her pack off and starts making room
<DeathStar> 6* Rachael shifts and hands Butler a sack
<Seraphna> Truth> "So mere words changed faiths by law?"
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, Parita walks in
<Aqua> *Butler blinks
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Hey sis.
<DeathStar> <Parita> You haven't been doing your homework back home.
<Seraphna> Truth> WE have been away.
<Nyaomi> 6Auna jerks at the sight of Parita
<DeathStar> <Parita> I had to get rid of those annoying templars and the angel or else this place would have been burned
<Nyaomi> <Auna> You! You attacked the Empire's men!
<Aqua> *Butler begins to load up the documents slowly and carefully
<DeathStar> 6* Parita eyes Auna
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Auna calm down.
<DeathStar> 6* Tsuki walks in
<DeathStar> 6* Peering at Parita
<Nyaomi> <Auna> B-But...
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Calm. Down.
<Seraphna> Truth> "Were any actually hurt?"
<Chain> 6*Ama comes in after Tsuki
<kalonZombie> 6*And Thara after Ama
<DeathStar> <PArita> The fact is that with 60% of the population already worshipping the angel, and Canaan's men in place, they took government, then made laws that slowly outlawed other religions. Were there angry people? Yes. But no one did anything. What was another religion gone that you didn't worship
<DeathStar> <Parita> Then as generations moved on, more worshipped the Angel
<Nyaomi> <Auna> As they should..!
<Chain> 6*Ama eyes Auna
<DeathStar> <Parita> Plus you had the family connections of Spear and Rose.
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Yeah, but why? The fact he was a fantatic was a good starting ground, but there's got to be a reason for it aside from that.
<Aqua> Butler> They already had a majority, it was probably easy.
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> I mean, Tanan was a Lenneth fantatic, but he didn't do this.
<DeathStar> <Parita> Well, Canaan became the first High Priest. So you'd have to ask the current one; they'd hold the secret. <Jean> You
<DeathStar> 6* Jean walks in, eyes lazing in anger and Parita turns
<DeathStar> <Parita> Looks like she freed the templars from the pit trap faster than I thought
<DeathStar> 6* Jean launches herself at Parita and pins her to the wall
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> JEAN STOP!
<Nyaomi> <Auna> ..L-Lady Angel..!
<DeathStar> 6* Parita eyes the templars marching into the room and eyeing it
<DeathStar> 6* Then throws a punch into Jean's face, breaking her nose
<Seraphna> Truth> "S-Stop!"
<Nyaomi> 6Auna jerks, bringing a hand out to chant a binding spell directed at Parita
<DeathStar> 6* Jean drops Parita, stepping back and holding it in surprise; the templars, staring at Parita in outrage, grab their weapons and surge forward at her
<Nyaomi> <Auna> Stand down!
<DeathStar> 6* Parita bounces and kicks Auna's hands and directs it at the templars
<Aqua> *Butler stealthy puts the documents she has away
<DeathStar> 6* then flips and down the hole
<DeathStar> <Parita> Later suckers. Taking your ride.
<DeathStar> <Jean> Y-You bitch
<DeathStar> 6* Jean says, using profanity
<Nyaomi> 6She snaps at the templars, then cries out in pain, the spell going haywire and encircling some of the templars in light bindings
<kalonZombie> 6*Leruste blinks at Jean saying that
<Seraphna> * Truth moves over to Jean and heals the nose, she blinks at Jean's words.
<DeathStar> <Jean> W-Well she is!
<Seraphna> Truth> "It was very mean of her to hit you. None of the Templars were harmed were they?"
<DeathStar> <Jean> We have to stop her - if we lose the caravan or we will die here
<DeathStar> 6* The templars are already going after her and getting stuck in the small hole
<Chain> 6*Ama goes after Parita
<Aqua> Butler> The skurr might still be here?
<DeathStar> 6* Jean peers at them, deadpanned
<Seraphna> Truth> "Then we must go out the way we came. Rushing directly after her will lead to pitfalls."
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Guys... she's tiny.
<DeathStar> 6* Tsuki holds her hand up and blasts out the ceiling, rock and dust and sand falling in
<DeathStar> 6* Blinding the templars
<DeathStar> 6* Jean flies up and lands in the desert
<kalonZombie> 6*Thara hops up through the hole
<Nyaomi> 6Auna calls her serpent and chases Jean, holding her wrist, wincing
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler wind jumps out
<Aqua> *Butler grabs onto Jean quickly
<Seraphna> * Truth ues wind to rush after Jean.
<DeathStar> 6* Jean peers at Butler and zooms with her wind bullet magik
<Aqua> *Butler holds on tightly
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler and Thara run, Ler using speed boosts to try and keep up with Jean
<Seraphna> * Truth frowns and attempts to replicate it, probably catapulting herself fast but making moon hops with wind jump.
<DeathStar> 6* Tsuki goes up. Parita meanwhile cartwheels and flips along and leaps onto the caravan, cutting horses free here and there
<Aqua> Butler> Wish I could fly...
<DeathStar> <JEan> I will teach you if you have wind magik
<Aqua> Butler> I do.
<Seraphna> Truth> "I do... how did you figure this out?"
<DeathStar> <Jean> I got mad.
<DeathStar> 6* Jean stops at the caravan; some templars remain and begin to burn the place, despite Parita's attempts
<DeathStar> 6* Being too slow to do anything else.
<Aqua> *Butler sighs at the burning
<Aqua> Butler> So much lost.
<DeathStar> 6 *Gartareh's symbol being offensive and evil
<Seraphna> Truth> "...Perhaps it did not occur to her that if she didn't not lead us here it would not have been burned... did you get a lot in that bag, Butler? I pocketed some notes."
<DeathStar> 6* Parita jerks at the others arriving so fast and eyes Ama's naked body as she rides the caravan along on top of it
<Chain> 6*Ama sniper shots Parita's head and back with ice water
<DeathStar> <Tsuki> If she did not lead you here now, you would have ridden by ito
<Seraphna> Truth> "I see..."
<DeathStar> 6* Parita makes a noise and falls forward onto the top as the caravan goes.
<Aqua> Butler> Some, not nearly enough
<DeathStar> 6* Jean lands onto the back of the caravan, hanging on
<Seraphna> Truth> "Can we please not damage her? Whatever the differences she is an old friend."
<Nyaomi> 6Auna descends and attempts to slow and stop the caravan with her serpent
<Seraphna> * Truth makes a final leap to land higher and on top if she can, then pulls Jean up.
<DeathStar> 6* Tsuki zooms back to the books
<Chain> 6*Ama plucks up Parita and tries to help slow the caravan
<Aqua> *Butler works on trying to herd horses back with her rod
<DeathStar> 6* Parita smacks Ama's tits a few times and slips free, sliding along the top. Rachael meanwhile is grabbing bnooks while telling the Templars what to burn
<DeathStar> 6* Jean moves along the back and through it to the top as Butler and Ama begin to slow the caravan. Parita leaps off.
<DeathStar> <Parita> All yours!
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler watches Parita vs. Ama, celebrating internally when Parita wins
* AquaKoala has joined #Session428
<DeathStar> 6* Parita grabs Auna's serpent and swings to ger further as the serpent wrenches the caravan to a stop, a wheel bouning off. The scurr runs awayt in fear
<Chain> 6*Ama makes a face and starts to make the gesture of ï'm gonna burn the bitch
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler runs over and grabs Ama's hand "Please, no"
<Seraphna> Truth> "Does this... really have to be violent?"
<Nyaomi> <Auna> It is her actions making it so!!
<Chain> <Ama> you ask after everything?
<DeathStar> 6* Parita whistles and her sandworm comes up and she rides it away, saluting
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> She's my sister.
<Seraphna> Truth> "Agression breeds agression, progressive."
<Nyaomi> 6Auna stands atop her serpent and raises both hands, channeling another binding spell
<AquaKoala> Butler> Fo Jeansake Auna, shut up
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> So yes, I ask.
<AquaKoala> *for
<Chain> 6*Ama eyes Ler
<Chain> <Ama> fine, but the sandworm is forfit
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> ...Fair enough.
<Chain> 6*Ama roasts it
<AquaKoala> *Butler reels "I-I. . ."
<DeathStar> 6* The sandworm screams in agony, wondering what it ever did in life to deserve the pain and suffering. Parita vanishes in flames, seemingly dying too being on it
<AquaKoala> *Butler hugs her Skurr and covers it's eyes
<DeathStar> 6* Jean stares at the sandworm burning
<Seraphna> Truth> "Why!?"
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler reels at Parita still being on it, and rushes over "PARITA"
<DeathStar> 6* The scurr scurrs
<DeathStar> 6* Tsuki lands with some books and Rachael
<DeathStar> <Tsuki> Roasted some meat?
<Seraphna> * Truth creates ice abive it and lets it quick melt, making rain.
<DeathStar> <Tsuki> And you say I have anger problems lately
<Seraphna> Truth> "The beast did not deserve that... and Parita may have been injured..."
<DeathStar> 6* They get to the roasted body of the sand worm - finding 100,000 gold and an emblem. But if Parita's body was on it it would just be cooked meat like the rest
<DeathStar> 6* Ama's strong when roasting
<Nyaomi> <Auna> I-- I was only aiming to bind it..!
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler looks around for her anyway, screaming her name
<DeathStar> 6* If it helps, there's no sign of her armor or sword
<Seraphna> * Truth wind leaps over to them, and peers around. "Leruste... she escaped worse when much younger."
<Chain> 6*Ama looks at Tsuki
<Seraphna> * Truth collects the items and gold for the pile and inspects the meat, satisfied at finding no metal as she pockets the emblem.
<AquaKoala> *Butler takes the emblem and looks it over
<Chain> <Ama> everything else that was being done was not even remotely effective
<AquaKoala> *Butler blinks but shrugs
<DeathStar> 6* It has a sandworm on it
<Chain> <Ama> she had no issue sending others to potentially die in the sands, or about leaving us without a caravan
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler looks over at Ama and glares hatred at her, but leaves it at that, moving back to join the rest
<DeathStar> 6* Meanwhile the 500 templars return, none of them harmed
<Seraphna> Truth> "She intentionally set the trap, she knew that they would not die."
<AquaKoala> *Butler looks over at the emblem hungrily
<DeathStar> 6* Though they looked pleased with their burning of the ruins
<Chain> <Ama> and I sincerly doubt she allowed the flames to take her
<DeathStar> 6* Though their armor is ruined right now and at 25% capacity -sand and all
<DeathStar> 6* They did have to fall through the quicksand into the ruin pit trap
<Seraphna> Truth> "You are misjudging her intents and actions though."
<kalonZombie> <Thara> She did keep them all alive sis.
<Seraphna> Truth> "And I believe the caravan was merely an attempt to get us to run away and clear the ruins instead of burning it."
<Seraphna> Truth> "...Sadly this did not work, truths were lost today in flames."
<DeathStar> <Rachael> Sadly the templars still burnt it.
<DeathStar> <Rachael> They botched chased her
<DeathStar> *chasing
<DeathStar> 6* Jean heals her nose
<Seraphna> Truth> "Though we recovered some information at least."
<Seraphna> * Truth healed that a while ago.
<DeathStar> <Rachael> I guess she thought hitting Jean would override everything else
<DeathStar> 6* Tsuki sets down what Rachael and her got when going bac kfor it
<DeathStar> 6* Rachael moves to hug Leruste and comfort him
<DeathStar> <Rachael> If she is okay, she will meet up with us later - she jsut has to travel on foot. Do you want me to toss out some water?
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler hugs Rachael tight, whispering that he didn't find any evidence that she's dead
<Nyaomi> 6Auna returns to Jean's side, shivering as she clings to her, using her holy magik to heal her as well
<DeathStar> 6* She eyes the desert
<Seraphna> Truth> *feeling like chopped liver with people healing things she already healed, she peers at Auna as she moves back to Jean*
<Chain> 6*Ama moves away from everyone else
<DeathStar> 6* Rachael holds up the water jugs, waiting on Leruste's decision; Tsuki follows, not judging her sister either way. She doesn't care
<AquaKoala> *Butler moves fro her quarters to read over the books
<kalonZombie> 6*Thara looks at Ler and Rachael, then Ama and Tsuki, then Ler and Rachael again
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler nods "Yeah, please"
<DeathStar> 6* She tosses it over
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> Could mean life and death out this far.
<DeathStar> <Rachael> Yeah. I hope she can summon another sandworm.
<DeathStar> 6* The caravan begins to move on
<Seraphna> <Truth> That's what was on the emblem.
<kalonZombie> <Leruste> We should go catch up.
<Seraphna> <Truth> We could toss it back too.
<DeathStar> 6* Rachael pulls herself onto the back and sits
<kalonZombie> 6*Ler sits with her, and Thara just starts to catch up with it now
<DeathStar> (I think Butler has the emblem)
<DeathStar> 6* Tsuki sits with Ama and massages
<Seraphna> (Could be either of us since we both posted taking it)
<AquaKoala> (No truth got it first)
<DeathStar> (Oh)
<Chain> 6*Ama offers a hand to Thara
<Seraphna> (Truth scooped up all the treasure for the group, gold included btw.)
<DeathStar> <Rachael> Up to you, Truth. The emblem seems powerful
<Seraphna> * Truth tosses it back by the jugs.
<Seraphna> Truth> "I am powerful."
<kalonZombie> 6*Thara looks at the hand, but eventually takes it
<AquaKoala> *Butler scoops it up as she passes, to figure out what it does since it's a group item
<AquaKoala> *For the group and not because she's a treasure whore
<Chain> 6*Ama looks out quietly, studying the sands
<DeathStar> 6* Tsuki kisses on Ama's neck, not sexually really
<Seraphna> * Truth looks annoyted at Butler taking what might be Parita's life raft in a sand ocean.
<DeathStar> 6* After the group is gone, a hand bursts out of the sand and Parita rises, burnt a little and panting
<DeathStar> 6* She looks around weakly and grabs the water and walks, without the emblem and no horses
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> 2.25.2863
<DeathStar> Location: Anora (Leyline Group)
<DeathStar> 6* Flying all day and part of the next, the ship is flying over Anora, near the castle. Even though it's not on the map, there is a strange hidden dungeon tower on the mountain range southeast of Undercity, which is where they are going, to the forest southeast of Undercity where a leyline is at
<Seraphna> Lia> "Wanna check out that tower? It's supposedly only been reachable by Serpent before now."
<AquaKoala> *James eyes the towers "Yesyesyesyesyesyes
<AquaKoala> James> My blood is calling me and telling me that is a great idea"
<DeathStar> <Angel> What about the leyline?
<Seraphna> Lia> "Mmm, we could tap the leyline, then fly to the tower? Or the other way around."
<Jackieness> <Moira> "And what is supposed to be in that tower?"
<DeathStar> <Lyn> I have no idea; I do not live in Anora.
<DeathStar> <Lyn> It is also on top of a mountain
<DeathStar> <Lin> I-I think we should tap the leyline first if we a-are going
<Seraphna> Lia> "There were ruins that the original group with the Angel never explored. Sealed away for Marked only. Which... made it hard for those left behind to explore after."
<DeathStar> (Also not JAmes)
<DeathStar> (This is Finn/Bel)
<Seraphna> Lia> "Very well... TO THE LEYLINE!" *she poses*
<DeathStar> <Angel> Alright.
<AquaKoala> (derp)
<AquaKoala> Bel> If we don't get it on the way back I will be upset *Bel contiues flying along
<DeathStar> 6* Maka has put on her armor and adjusted her white hair into a ponytail as they land in the forest, carefully. The leyline here is very depleted, down in the crevice more than half-way. The place where Jubei lost her memory. Angel carefully lands them
<DeathStar> 6* with Belit's help
<Jackieness> <Moira> "Looks like soem caution will be warranted for this one."
<DeathStar> <Lyn> I find it interesting the tower is near the leyline
<Seraphna> Lia> "It may not be a coiincidence."
<AquaKoala> *Bel grabs her weapons and lowers a ladder
<DeathStar> 6* The three Knights get out and take up positions and Lyn walks down with Lin, Angel staying behind. Ailee is there, already, meditating somehow
<AquaKoala> *Having found a captains hat at some point
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok moves with Bel
<Seraphna> * Lia walks down, smiling at Maka getting prepared and ready. Kissing her cheek.
<Jackieness> <Moira> *moves down from the ship*
<DeathStar> 6* Maka takes the sword form Jubei and walks over to the leyline
<DeathStar> 6* Prancing along
<AquaKoala> *Finn flaps down as a majestic hawk
<DeathStar> <Lyn> How is Ailee here?
<DeathStar> 6* She blinks at her, since she didn't come.
<AquaKoala> Bel> Have you never traveled with her before?
<AquaKoala> Bel> This is how it always works
<AquaKoala> *Bel kisses Ailee's cheek "Hello dear"
<kalonZombie> <Narok> Hello Ailee.
<DeathStar> <Ailee> Hello; I have been waiting. *She rises, wearing armor from Anora and a weapon* Things have been quiet in the castle and the princess is returning soon. No sign of anything suspicious
<DeathStar> 6* MAka begins to climb down with the sword
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok nods
<DeathStar> 6* Trying to find footholds
<Jackieness> <Moira> "Quiet is good."
<DeathStar> 6* Lin watches her - since this is the place Jubei fill in and almost fill into the leyline itself and was vaporized, instead merely losding her memory and was erradiated with mana
<AquaKoala> *Bel smiles and nods, before starting to climb down slowly and light footed
<Seraphna> * Lia watches her, rady to TK catch.
<DeathStar> 6* It is mostly a straight climb down with no real spots to rest, Maka having the sword in her teeth
<DeathStar> 6* The large size making her comically grimace
<AquaKoala> *Bel uses her whip to help her along if it's possible
<AquaKoala> *Finn flaps down
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly the ground breaks off once she's near the bottom, likely what happened to Jubei and she begins to fall
<Seraphna> * Lia TK grabs her.
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok uses a tentacle to try and catch her
<DeathStar> 6* The TK fails
<Nyaomi> 6Jubei slides to grab her before she's unreachable
<DeathStar> 6* The tentacles do not go that far - and Jubei since she hasn't been climbing cannot reach her
<AquaKoala> *Bel lashes with her whip, aiming to wrap it around a limb
<AquaKoala> *Bracing tightly as she does
<DeathStar> 6* Belit, who has been climbing, grabs her leg and Maka hangs upside down
<DeathStar> 6* Belit's own ground weakening due to it. Maka, inches from the leyline, dips the sword and it drains the leyline with goop goop goop
<AquaKoala> *Bel whines a little, her shoulder popping out from the weight
<AquaKoala> Bel> Please hurry
<DeathStar> <Ailee> You might want to start climing down Narok
<DeathStar> <Ailee> So your tentacles are in range
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok climbs down quickly, moving so the tentacles are in range
<Seraphna> * Lia cries out and whimpers, using water mana to try and catch her.
<AquaKoala> Bel> NO MAGIK
<kalonZombie> 6*Though I did say he moved with Bel
<Seraphna> * Lia stops.
<DeathStar> 6* The water magik explodes, even as she begins and stops
<AquaKoala> *Bel braces tightly
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok tries his tentacles when he's in range, glad they're not magik based
<Seraphna> * Lia whimpers, and instead gives Maka energy to help her survive.
<DeathStar> 6* Thankfully, since it wasn't begun all the way, it only explodes and sends them flying with a fistful of tidal wave, Belit, Narok, and Maka flying into the sky
<Seraphna> * Lia frowns and focuses her TK, getting ready to try again and catch her.
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> ... Impressive
<DeathStar> 6* The tidal wave coming over the edge and catching the others
<DeathStar> 6* And sending them flying toward the ship and smacking it
<DeathStar> 6* As Belit, Narok, and Maka land on the mast
<Nyaomi> 6Jubei sees if she can cushion them with a fust of wind
<DeathStar> 6* Narok's tentacles wrapping around it
<AquaKoala> *Bel hugs on "NO FUCKING MAGIK"
<DeathStar> 6* This far back the magik is fine thankfully, the wind stopping the tidal
<AquaKoala> *Bel sighs in relief
<DeathStar> 6* Maka looks at the sword to see if it filled up before Lia's pre-mature ejaculation
<DeathStar> 6* Maka thumbs up
<AquaKoala> *Bel starts to slide down one handed and work her shoulder back into place
<Seraphna> * Lia mewls in relief and starts helping them down.
<DeathStar> 6* MAka leaps down so Lia can TK catch her
<Seraphna> * Lia tries to catch her this time.
<Seraphna> * With TK
<DeathStar> 6* Is caught, since she's not in the leyline
<DeathStar> 6* Lyn sits up, soaked, her tail and ears down
<DeathStar> <Lyn> ....
<DeathStar> 6* She eyes Kohna
<DeathStar> 6* Lin coughs, looking miserible
<Seraphna> Lia> "My... my telekenetics don't function in the leylines..."
<DeathStar> 6* While Angel is fine outside wet shoes, at the wheel
<AquaKoala> Bel> I think we might've of just been to far
<DeathStar> <Angel> I take it things went smashingly?
<AquaKoala> *Bel peels off her armour and changes
<kalonZombie> <Narok> Yes. Can't you tell?
<kalonZombie> <Narok> That was sarcasm.
<Seraphna> * Lia hugs onto Maka.
<DeathStar> <Angel> I got that.
<DeathStar> 6* Maka hands Jubei her sword
<DeathStar> 6* Ice, Wind, Holy, Holy, Lightning - 5/8 slots filled. Lyn looks at Moira, annoyed
<DeathStar> <Lyn> ... *She pushes her into a puddle*
<AquaKoala> *Bel moves for the helm "Alright, lets go to that tower thingy
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok nods
<Jackieness> <Moira> *eipes the water from her face* "...definition of insanity..."
<Nyaomi> 6Kohna rubs Lyn's shoulders
<DeathStar> -TIME HOP-
<DeathStar> 6* They land on top of the mountain by the tower. The wind blows hard here and the tower looks to be 9 stories tall, after every third section it looks different. The front door looks busted in already and there's signs of elven weapons on the ground and elven skeletons.
<DeathStar> 6* There's a feeling of mana about the tower as well
<DeathStar> <Angel> If I recall, we have seen places like this before in other kingdoms
<DeathStar> 6* Angel's eyes are red, using her non-mana vision which typically leads to her acting strangely and like a different person
<Seraphna> Lia> "I think so... hrm... I have a feeling someone we aren't going to like meeting up with has been here."
<Jackieness> <Moira> "How old are the elven remains here?"
<AquaKoala> *Bel whistles through her teeth
<Seraphna> * Lia peers at them, trying to make a judgement.
<AquaKoala> Bel> Year at least
<AquaKoala> Bel> They're skeletons
<DeathStar> 6* Lyn walks up to the skeletons and checks them out
<DeathStar> <Lyn> ACtually, I think you're wrong. Which is disturbing
<AquaKoala> *Bel slides down the ladder "What do you mean?
<Jackieness> <Moira> "What do you mean?" *steps off of the ship*
<DeathStar> 6* She holds up the armor - Badelf. Belonging to the group that was sent up under Celesia's brother
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok follows Bel down
<AquaKoala> Bel> Oh fuck me running
<AquaKoala> Bel> That psychopath
<Seraphna> Lia> "Something picked thier corpses clean."
<Jackieness> <Moira> *narrows her eyes at the door* "I bet he came here to find a new source of mana to replace the mana from Badelf's leyline."
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> ... Rose, be ready..
<AquaKoala> *Bel pulls her armour back on "Alright, we might have a bigger fight than expected
<AquaKoala> Bel> Everyone okay with that?
<DeathStar> <Lyn> Or drained their life clean...
<DeathStar> 6* She muses
<DeathStar> 6* The Rose Knights nod
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok gives a smile that would disturb everyone before covering it by forming armor
<DeathStar> 6* Angel moves inside the door
<kalonZombie> 6*Then forms a sword
<AquaKoala> *Bel moves in
<DeathStar> 6* While Ailee holds her blades
<AquaKoala> *Finn flaps to Narok and deforms
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok follows Bel in
<Jackieness> <Moira> *draws her sword* "The bastard... sacrificing his men so pointlessly." *moves forward*
<Seraphna> * Lia moves carefully.
<DeathStar> 6* As they enter, they would see that the first floor has been ransacked - things on the ground broken and it seems that they were living in here a while based on tents and the filfth of the elves. There's more skeletons as well. Four pedestals are set up with nothing on them and staircases are down - the pedestals are set up in a pattern of a U shape and on the wall is the same symbol.
<DeathStar> 6* There is also writing on the wall in the Ancient's language
<Seraphna> * Lia reads it.
<AquaKoala> *Bel looks down the staircase
<Seraphna> (Ancient Scholar talent)
<DeathStar> "This is the tower of Anora, built to hold the secrets within. If you are the follower of the Angel, show your prowness of magik to proceed."
<Seraphna> Lia> "This is the tower of Anora, it says if we are followes of the Angel to show our prowess with Magik to proceed."
<DeathStar> <Angel> I think they stripped this floor down of whatever goods there were. I can feel trace mana on the pedestals. I Think orbs were here
<Jackieness> <Moira> "Orbs?"
<DeathStar> 6* Ailee walks up the stairs quietly, and Lyn, the Knights, and Angel follows. Lin hides
<DeathStar> <Angel> IT was a shape like an orb. Based on the particles I can 'see'
<AquaKoala> *Bel eyes it and casts a fireball (Angel Magik: Fireball) towards the pedestal
<Seraphna> Lia> "Hrm..." *she looks over them carefully*
<DeathStar> 6* The pedstal is damaged
<Seraphna> Lia> "I-It doesn't say attack the place!"
<AquaKoala> Bel> I thought it was worth a try *She sighs
<Seraphna> Lia> "I think this trial was already overcome,since the stairs are open."
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok follows after Ailee
<Jackieness> <Moira> "As was said, the orbs are missing." *moves toward the stairs*
<AquaKoala> *Bel follows sulkily
<Seraphna> Lia> "Phoenixplume would have gotten through easily." *she moves to follow*
<DeathStar> 6* The second floor the pedestals here are 6 and are shaped like a Z, with nothing on them, and a text saying that 'Wind must master ice must master water must master fire' and so on. The stairs are down
<Jackieness> <Moira> "Another cleared. LEt's continue."
<AquaKoala> Bel> Easiest puzzles ever *Bel moves for the stairs
<DeathStar> 6* This continues floor after floor. 4-6 has even more bodies and pedestals. And finally 7-8 as they get there more bodies.
<Seraphna> Lia> *reads it for them anyway*
<Seraphna> Lia> "So... this place has already been emptied out?"
<AquaKoala> Bel> I doubt it, I feel something
<DeathStar> 6* The puzzles seem to be showing various magik, and sometimes team work was involved, like doing high level spells at once and from angles. When they reach 9, they see all the orbs they would have collected have been put into slots around a large vault like door which is open
<DeathStar> 6* And sounds inside
<kalonZombie> <Narok> This aught to be interesting.
<AquaKoala> *Bel unsheathes her cutlass and looks inside quietly
<Jackieness> <Moira> *lowers her voice and draws her sword* "If it was meant for followers of the Angel, I would sealed it so that only the marked could open it..."
<Seraphna> * Lia frowns and grips her staff.
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> Perhaps the final trial was something only marked could
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> Hence the bodies
<kalonZombie> <Narok> Perhaps.
<Jackieness> <Moira> *nods to the open door*
<DeathStar> 6* As they enter, they see Raelic Phoenixplume there, the Whispering Grass on his hip, and only a few soldiers left. He holds what appears to be a green orb in his hands
<DeathStar> 6* Draining the life from the soldiers and powering up his magik, grinning manically
<DeathStar> 6* They turn to skeletons and fall down dead as he pulls the green orb into himself
<AquaKoala> *Bel dashes in rapidly and quietly and stabbing at his chest
<Jackieness> <Moira> *tightens her grip on her current sword as she sees her longtime, stolen blade*
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> Is that your sword you've lamented about, lady Moira?
<AquaKoala> (speed boost 5)
<DeathStar> 6* He throws out his hand and the entire room becomes a tsunami that hits Belit and throws her into the wall hard enough to crack her ribs
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> A male mage... is he already mad..!?
<AquaKoala> *Bel cries out
<DeathStar> 6* He turns to face them
<Seraphna> * Lia tries to turn the water magik with her own, forcing it back.
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok raises his sword
<DeathStar> <Raelic PHoenixplume> I see you are on the trail of the magik orbs too - looking for the magik spells within?
<AquaKoala> *Finn eyes the water
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> Magik orbs... spells within-- sealed magiks!?
<AquaKoala> *Finn eyes Raelic
<DeathStar> 6* Raelic begins to use the wind magik inside the orb, and a hurricane begins to form
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> That's just a fairy tale
<AquaKoala> Finn> EVERYONE JUMP
<DeathStar> 6* And tornados pop up all over, and adding water, they begin water torandos
<DeathStar> 6* Throwing them out
<Jackieness> <Moira> "...so much for the element of surprise." *dashes toward Raelic, moving to evade the tornadoes as she tries to close the distance*
<AquaKoala> *Finn blasts a massive lighting bolt at the water while they are being blasted out
<Seraphna> * Lia blinks and leaps up, she uses some of the water to seed a Chaod Water Dragon and surges it at him as she flies back.
<Nyaomi> 6Jubei jerks and tries to protect herself and those behind her with the rune blade
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok jumps
<DeathStar> 6* Ailee watches for a moment, waiting and Angel and Lyn hisses
<DeathStar> 6* The Rune and Rose Knights move in
<Seraphna> Lia> "He is an apostate! Be wary!"
<DeathStar> 6* The tornados are hit but are only dimenished
<AquaKoala> *Bel lashes out with her whip at him after struggling up, aiming for Grass
<DeathStar> 6* As the dragon comes in, Raelic forms another high level spell - wind destruction and rips the dragon to pieces with wind fury
<DeathStar> 6* He steps behind a tornado to avoid Belit, taking the Sword in hand
<DeathStar> 6* And it forms into a scythe
<DeathStar> 6* Very different than Moira's sword
<AquaKoala> *Bel focuses and attempts to use Slow magik on him (Slow 2)
<Jackieness> <Moira> *moves along the circumference of the room, trying to flank Raelic*
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok tries to use tentacles to pull his feet from under him
<Seraphna> * Lia frowns and holds out her hands, uses Telekenetic Warrior Lv. 4 - Goddess TK and attempts to seize him.
<DeathStar> 6* The magik seems to have no affect and he begins to slash at Moira and the group, and beams of slash light flies at them, the universe tearing itself
<DeathStar> 6* Maka leaps in front of Lia and she's cut hard
<AquaKoala> *Finn dashes in. attempting to deflect the blows
<DeathStar> 6* Her armor slashed in half and her breasts bouncing out as she falls, blood splaying
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok rushes in, swinging powerfully at him
<DeathStar> 6* Finn's arms are cut to pieces - these blows apparantly cutting dimensions
<Seraphna> * Lia squeak and breaks her concentration, using a Heal Magic level 4 on her.
<Jackieness> <Moira> *moves to evade the slashes to the side* "That is my sword, you psychopath!"
<DeathStar> 6* However the tentacles jerk him down
<Seraphna> Lia> "YOU CAN'T BLOCK IT! AVOID THE ATTACKS AND DISARM HIM!"
<DeathStar> 6* So that Narok hits him back into the wall
<AquaKoala> *Finn growls, attempting to grow a sword straight from his arm
<DeathStar> 6* But Narok is cut along his face
<DeathStar> 6* As is Lyn and Angel
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok rushes at him, ignoring the pain, attempting to kebob him into the wall
<Nyaomi> 6Jubei rolls to get under them, signalling the other Rose to circle him
<Jackieness> <Moira> *moves forward, aiming a straight stab toward Raelic's chest*
<AquaKoala> *Bel rushes in and stabs at him with Narok
<DeathStar> 6* The Rose Knights move in when the ground under them begin to shake with wind
<DeathStar> 6* Raelic floats up into the air with a wind jump
<DeathStar> 6* That takes him to the ceiling, letting all of them collide
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok stops running, lucky that he's in heavy armor
<AquaKoala> *Bel kicks off off Narok in an attempt to jump and reach him
<Seraphna> * Lia holds Maka and turns in the air, shifting to land like a cat.
<kalonZombie> 6*Shooting a blast of darkness up at him
<DeathStar> 6* As Maka is healed, the ground under them begins to shoot up wind slashes in various spots.
<Nyaomi> 6Jubei sheathes the rune blade and draws her own, connecting them, drawing a mana arrow, synching her breathing.
<DeathStar> 6* Raelic is hit by the darkness and he falls
<DeathStar> 6 *But the slashes keep coming
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> Kuu!
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok tries to stab him while he's on the ground through the neck
<DeathStar> 6* Lyn dodges
<AquaKoala> *Bel slashes at him as he falls
<Seraphna> * Lia creates a shield to protect herself and him, and frowns. "Gotta disrupt him..."
<Nyaomi> 6Jubei fires her mana arrow at the falling Raelic, chirping as she tries to dodge the updrafts
<Jackieness> <Moira> *leaps and tries to slash Raelic's hands off as he falls*
<DeathStar> 6* As Belit and Narok try to slash, wind slashes come up and hit their arms, early taking their arms off and knocking their aim, and Moira is hit in mid-air aknd knocks her away
<DeathStar> 6* Raelic spins and recovers
<DeathStar> 6* Landing, but ish it by the mana arrow
<DeathStar> 6* Pinned, the wind slashes ending
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok growls in pain, turning into a bear now
<Seraphna> * Lia then sends out a Telepathic scream at him to try and keep him off balance.
<DeathStar> 6* Raelic goes fire mode, burning
<AquaKoala> *Bel lashes with the whip in other hand
<DeathStar> 6* To stop the scream, and begins to burn, the whip hitting him
<AquaKoala> *Bel advancing because lolfire
<DeathStar> 6* He walks forward, a burning phoenix
<Nyaomi> 6Jubei splits her bow into blades and focuses her mana, cross-wave slashing up at him with wind mana to overheat his flames.
<DeathStar> 6* A Rune Knight comesi nand channels spells, slashing
<AquaKoala> *Bel punches at him square in the neck
<DeathStar> 6* Angel chants and attacks with her attacks
<Jackieness> <Moira> "You mad fool! Badelf is already lost! What have you to gain now?!"
<DeathStar> <Raelic> POWER1
<Seraphna> * Lia starts belting at him with Water Paws.
<AquaKoala> Finn> Po- Oh.
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok roars at him, blasting him with darkness

<DeathStar> 2
<Seraphna> * Lia TK grabs a weapon from one of the soldiers and stabs at him with it.
<AquaKoala> *Bel punches at him in a flurry, aiming for his windpipe
<Jackieness> <Moira> *dashes to impale him*
<DeathStar> 1
<kalonZombie> 6*He then tries to pull his head off with bear strength
<Nyaomi> 6Jubei leap strikes with her lightning tigoar blade
<DeathStar> 6* Raelic is impaled through the gut and loses his head, but all the magik in him beghins to implode, the corruption coming out in a furious bomb

<DeathStar> -0-
<Seraphna> * Lia throws up a shield around his body and grabs Maka, tunning, she TKs at the items he had with them
<Nyaomi> 6Jubei tries to draw what she can with the rune blade before making a wind leap
<DeathStar> 6* The explosion hits the RTune Knight, the corruption slamming into him and his skeleton seen briefly
<DeathStar> 6* The wind orb drops and rolls along
<AquaKoala> *Bel scoops it up
<DeathStar> 6* And Whispering Grass, which you probably guessed what it is
<AquaKoala> Bel> Hey Moira, it's your sword
<Seraphna> Lia> "That weapon... that's the Emerald Sword..."
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> ...n-no!
<kalonZombie> 6*We didn't need to since you said it earlier :P
<AquaKoala> *Bel tosses it to her
<Nyaomi> 6Jubei runs over to the Rune Knight
<DeathStar> 6* The Rose Knights kneel and pray for RK
<Nyaomi> 6Jubei winces, her eyes watering a bit as she bites her lip. 1"D-Damn it..."
<AquaKoala> Bel> Can someone reattach my arm? I'll be out of shock soon.
<Jackieness> <Moira> *takes Whispeing Grass* "...the soul of a warrior." *closes her eyes and will Whispering Grass take on the shape and countenance of the Revi blade that she has been using, becoming green and red twins*
<DeathStar> 6* The wind orb seems to grant all the wind spells to whoever uses it, as well as Wind Slash from 10 feet square area, 10 tornados at once, 30 foot wind jump, and finally Hurricane, and if you have other orbs you can make other devastating moves like
<DeathStar> Tsunami
<Seraphna> * Lia nods and takes the orb from her, setting it aside, and then grabs her arm, putting it against her and starting to try and work it with sorcery surgery.
<kalonZombie> 6*Bearok sits down, neutral faced
<AquaKoala> *Bel eyes it and tosses the orb to Lia "You'll use this more than I will"
<Seraphna> * Lia nods and puts it away before working on her arm.
<DeathStar> 6* MAka sits there naked and eyes Bel without an arm and faints. Ailee meanwhile looks at Bel
<DeathStar> <Ailee> if you die I will make you a vampire
<DeathStar> 6* Lyn looks around the room
<DeathStar> <Lyn> Hm. I wonder how many orbs there are
<AquaKoala> Bel> Nah, just a flesh wound.
<Seraphna> Lia> "If this works, it'll be useless for a while."
<Nyaomi> 6Jubei kneels by the fallen rune knight and wipes her face with her eyes. 1"You two... give me a hand." 6She takes the rune knight's weapon, and shifts to lift part of the body.
<Seraphna> * Lia starts using Synthesis of Scalpel and Magika to reattach the limb.
<AquaKoala> *Finn sits in line for healing, having no arms
<Jackieness> <Moira> *lets out a breath and then walks toward Bel, kneeling down* "Belit, I thank you for this."
<Seraphna> Lia> "And after this I'll need a nap... Finn we can fix easier."
<Seraphna> Lia> "Moira... you know smithing right?"
<AquaKoala> Bel> It's fine Moira *She smiles
<Jackieness> <Moira> "I do. I had to keep my weapons and armor maintained myself. KAelan showed me some tricks as well."
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok has both arms as a bear. Also, he is a bear.
<DeathStar> 6* Angel leans on Moira, flirty like
<DeathStar> <Angel> Now that you have your sword
<DeathStar> <Angel> Does that mean you're stronger?
<Seraphna> Lia> "A Demon Blade can be repaired by a smith who bonds with it temporarily and focuses their knowledge and energy into it. It's sort of a magical mending... but with smithing will. If he works like the others do."
<DeathStar> 6* She moves over to Jubei though, serious like
<AquaKoala> *Finn changes to a sword to rest and conserve energy
<Nyaomi> 6Jubei carries the rune knight out with the two rose, outside saying words of thanks to them for giving their life to protect the two rose and country, to return their body to the earth and their mana to Tareh.
<DeathStar> 6* Taking part of the ritual
<DeathStar> 6* Lin comes out and prays with Jubei
<Seraphna> Lia> "Make sure you get the remnants of his arms, they should be swords now. *she keeps working the arm reattachment*
<DeathStar> 6* Lia succeeds, at great exhaustive work
<Jackieness> <Moira> "It means I have two swords. Steel depends on the strength that wields it."
<DeathStar> 6* The RosE Knights say things they remember of their comrade - how he stood there and was silently a hero
<DeathStar> 6* Angel holds Jubei's hand
<AquaKoala> *Bel eyes her new hand "Does anyone have any extremely strong hooch?"
<DeathStar> 6* Squeezing it
<Nyaomi> 6Jubei takes the rune knight's blade, adding it to her exhausting collection of blades, smiling weakly to Angel.
<Jackieness> <Moira> "And I need tools and a forge if I am to do this."
<DeathStar> 6* Lin takes her other
<kalonZombie> 6*Bearok blods over to Bel
<kalonZombie> *plods
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> Failed my first trial and already lost a rare rune knight in two days. Not a bad start, eh...? Ha ha ha..." 6She sniffs.
<Seraphna> Lia> "We can always fly to a city..."
<DeathStar> <Angel> He took the corruption in
<DeathStar> <Angel> If that had hit Narok or Finn, they could become our enemy later
<DeathStar> <Angel> He did his duty
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> Yes, he sure did.
<AquaKoala> *Bel smiles and pats him, her eyes hazy with shock still
<Seraphna> Lia> <Jubei... you also managed to unlock what may be an unexpected boon to our side... there are more of these towers, if they contain these orbs and other things, it could change the future.>
<DeathStar> <Angel> Lets go - we have to head to Badelf and prepare.
<Jackieness> <Moira> "Jubei, he chose his fate on this battlefield. And we are fortunate that he did so."
<Nyaomi> <Jubei> Yes. Of course. Prepare yourselves... we depart immediately...
<DeathStar> 6* Inside, Raelic curses that his corruption cannot spread through the tower of mana to curse the castle and leyline nearby
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Empire
* Aqua has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection)
<DeathStar> 6* The other group's airship flies, entering the border of the Empire. Jean peers out, as does Cersei
<DeathStar> <Jean> When we arrive, we ask you drop us off outside the city so we can put on disguises
<Seraphna> * Kaelan peers out curiously. "Okay."
<DeathStar> <Jean> It may be awkward if people thought we were the Empress Jean
<Chain> 6*Umi kisses her pups
<Jackieness> <Asha> "Then outside the city it shall be. So sayeth your fine ass captain."
<kalonZombie> <Sal> Yeah, tiny bit.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "Well.. she was convinced that those of us that went with you were all brain washed... so we'll have to be careful reguardless."
<AquaKoala> *Puggy yawn softly
<AquaKoala> *James looks out, wearing his cloak
<DeathStar> 6* They fly over the grasslands, getting closer to the capital. Cersei nods, looking out; up ahead is a series of mountains providing a protective barrier
<Chain> <Umi> stay hidden, understood
<DeathStar> 6* With four cities on top of them, like fortresses
<DeathStar> 6* The capital located inside the mountain range
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "We're going to attact a lot of attention regardless."
<Nyaomi> 6Wyrd sniffs around, ever since the strange feeling of Fate
* Aqua has joined #Session428
<Chain> 6*Umi moves to Jean
<DeathStar> 6* As they pass the mountains and first two fortresses, moving into a desert like area
<Aqua> *Puggy follows, stub tail wagging
<DeathStar> 6* They lower the ship outside the massive city of Jeanole, so JEan and her family can get off
<DeathStar> 6* Jean gathers their things and steps off, just a short few hours away from the massive city
<Seraphna> Kaelan> "You all be careful."
<DeathStar> <Jean> WE shall be.
<Jackieness> <Asha> "Secure the ballast and anchors away."
<Aqua> *Puggy wears a puppy cloak
<DeathStar> 6* Cersei turns as they lift off and begin to enter Jeanole and wonder what sort of reception they will receive in the coming days asking for help
<DeathStar> -END-
