You have just entered room "The Heart of Kzentil Part 2."
SongstressEnlil: (Scared me)
KotokiFrog: (Not shit!)
EbilArchmage: (Kate, can you DC me and send EVERYTHING from where I lurked out?)
SongstressEnlil: IM: Never again. Never again will I value possessions over life.
KotokiFrog: At least the heart is still safe.
EbilArchmage: (You or Jak or anybody?)
SongstressEnlil: IM: Father, I am sorry I failed you...
Jak Snide: (Hmm? Kate, can you do it, please?)
EbilArchmage: (Is the party indoors now, possibly excepting Enlil?)
SongstressEnlil: (Enlil, Karis, Sara in the Inn)
SongstressEnlil: (Enlil is Auraed out and Singing)
Jak Snide: But if they are there...*he gets up from his chair*....I shall go meet them, since their task will most likely coming here for a good
whule.
SongstressEnlil: (Toki's in Toras's office)
EbilArchmage: *smiles faintly at Sara*
EbilArchmage: I didn't plan for this to happen.
SongstressEnlil: -o-
KotokiFrog: Alright.
dragonclawsedw: It not your fault... <<bad luck>>
Jak Snide: (*while)
EbilArchmage: But I guess things like this happen in Gaera sometimes, yeah?
dragonclawsedw: IM: I must be cursed...
EbilArchmage: Probably on Earth, too, right?
Jak Snide: *Toras walks out of his hut, expecting Kotoki to follow*
EbilArchmage: It's not so bad. It's an adventure, I suppose. *nods*
KotokiFrog: *follows*
dragonclawsedw: It hurt...and it sad... ._.
dragonclawsedw: Poor hobbits...
EbilArchmage: Yeah...
EbilArchmage: I wish people didn't have to die...
SongstressEnlil: IM: How can Karis believe this is not so bad?
EbilArchmage: ...it takes all the fun out of an adventure.
Jak Snide: *Toras walks inside the Summer's Dream, Kotoki behind him. Almost all the heads in the inn turn in his direction*
dragonclawsedw: u.u Sad....
EbilArchmage: *sighs heavily and looks at Sara* Be glad you're alive.
dragonclawsedw: o.o *looks up at the hobbit*
EbilArchmage: It's things like this that remind us what a gift it is...
EbilArchmage: ...*blinks and looks over*
SongstressEnlil: *Still Singing, hoping to lift the hearts of the survivors*
Jak Snide: I would have words with you three, your songstress especially.
EbilArchmage: *rises* As you wish. *nods*
SongstressEnlil: *Lets the song fade away*
dragonclawsedw: o.o What hobbit want?
Jak Snide: Sit, we shall talk here.
SongstressEnlil: Toras, it is good that you have come.
SongstressEnlil: Your people need you.
Jak Snide: That they do, but I need you first.
SongstressEnlil: *Nods*
KotokiFrog: *sits down*
EbilArchmage: *sits as well, trying to appear outwardly calm and stable*
Jak Snide: *He aproaches the table and sits down on a stool, one perfect for his size*
SongstressEnlil: *Sits on the Floor, what with Halfing tables being about Chest height that way*
dragonclawsedw: o.o *mimics everyone else and sits*
Jak Snide: The attack is over, and the price we paid for the survival of Reevyn was heavy. I extend you my thanks for your aid.
EbilArchmage: *nods* I mourn the loss of your comrades alongside you.
dragonclawsedw: <<What did he say to us?>>
SongstressEnlil: *Nods*
KotokiFrog: As do I.
EbilArchmage: They fought well, and they gave their lives defending your people.
Jak Snide: *he sighs* But I suspect that this Baeltinn was not destroyed with his army. Do you know anything which could confirm or deny this?
SongstressEnlil: I am sorry I did not destory them all, when I could have.
EbilArchmage: I am not aware of any such thing.
SongstressEnlil: I destroyed the largest skeleton.
dragonclawsedw: *blank look*
EbilArchmage: T2Sara: He said that the attack was over, and that the price they paid was heavy. Then he thanked
us.
SongstressEnlil: But it was not truly Baeltinn, I do not believe.
EbilArchmage: T2S: Now he's asking about the big skeleton that lead them...
dragonclawsedw: <<Oh I see...>>
Jak Snide: *nods, a grim look on his face* Than something must be done about this. I understand that he wants the heart dearly, and I doubt he
will not try his hand again.
Jak Snide: (*Then)
dragonclawsedw: <<I don't know anything about that it ran off chasing Enlil>>
SongstressEnlil: It will take him time to rebuild.
EbilArchmage: T2S: That's alright.
EbilArchmage: Perhaps.
SongstressEnlil: In the meantime, I know how to destroy the heart, but I will need help.
EbilArchmage: Is there any way we can reinforce this village? It appears that these creatures are not open to
negotiation.
EbilArchmage: Especially not now.
SongstressEnlil: I require a mage who is very skilled in Light magics.
Jak Snide: *Toras lowers his head, mulling over what has been said*
EbilArchmage: I'm afraid I can't help you there...not personally.
SongstressEnlil: If we destroy it, Baeltinn will have no reason to countinue this.
EbilArchmage: Aren't there any light mages in the village?
SongstressEnlil: Then, perhaps, I can reach him.
Jak Snide: Reevyn is weak now. Half of our fighting men and women were killed, and a necromancer can simply raise an army from the dead.
And aye, there isn't a light mage in this villa...
Jak Snide: *He looks up at Enlil*
SongstressEnlil: Are there any nearby?
KotokiFrog: I don't know light magic, and all the people I know who do are in Doma...
dragonclawsedw: o.o We should leave heart.
Jak Snide: Not that I know of, and your hope that this man can be reasoned with sounds ridiculous to me.
SongstressEnlil: I have reasoned with those who desired to destroy Gaera
EbilArchmage: The nearest settlement...where is it?
SongstressEnlil: There is no one who falls so low that they cannot be redeemed.
EbilArchmage: Very few people live on the plains...
EbilArchmage: ...an admirable thing to say, Enlil.
Jak Snide: *Toras quite clearly doesn't believe Enlil, as his expression shows*
EbilArchmage: And one I would tend to agree with.
dragonclawsedw: Get rid of heart and make it die so heart can not hurt people...
SongstressEnlil: Thank you, Karis.
dragonclawsedw: Hakaril know way *nods*
Jak Snide: We're fairly isolated, preffering to keep ourselves uninvolved with outside business.
SongstressEnlil: Hmmm.
SongstressEnlil: There is no one skilled with Light Magicks that you know of?
dragonclawsedw: Hakaril know lots ^_^
EbilArchmage: The nearest holy mage that I know if is all the way back in the city. I doubt we have time for that.
Jak Snide: *Toras shakes his head*
EbilArchmage: Yes, General Silvar is a fairly knowledgeable man...
KotokiFrog: Where is the nearest city?
SongstressEnlil: IM: I need to speak with this General someday...
SongstressEnlil: Then where is Baeltinn?
Jak Snide: (One moment...)
Jak Snide: My scouts have told me the closest village is one called "Smiidale". As for Baeltinn, I do not know, although he would have had a
good supply of our dead to do so.
SongstressEnlil: Yes, he favored Halfling corpses for his reanimation.
SongstressEnlil: Where do you bury your dead?
EbilArchmage: *looks to Sara* IM: She's handling all this remarkably well...a displaced traveler from another world,
alone and afraid...but not alone any more.
dragonclawsedw: IM: Oh dear lord I'm so freaked out..... o______o
Jak Snide: A few miles North West of here, in a clearing we made our graveyard many years ago.
KotokiFrog: Should we look there?
SongstressEnlil: Why so far from your Village?
SongstressEnlil: *seems a little puzzled by this*
dragonclawsedw: o.o IM: I probably don't want to know what their talking about but have a feeling that it's very important...
Jak Snide: The place was blessed by an ancient druid of Gaera, one who dwelt in this region centuries ago. It semed like a decent and
respactable place to lay the dead to rest.
EbilArchmage: *offers Sara a comforting hand* T: Do you want to know what they're saying?
SongstressEnlil: *Nods*
dragonclawsedw: IM: Hobbits talk too fast.
EbilArchmage: *T2S
SongstressEnlil: I will speak with Baeltinn.
Jak Snide: *nods* Then you will go to the graveyard, as your friend *he indicates Kotoki* suggested?
SongstressEnlil: Yes
Jak Snide: *nods* I will dispatch some of my own to search the area as well.
dragonclawsedw: *nods to Karis*
SongstressEnlil: No
SongstressEnlil: Do not throw away any more lives.
EbilArchmage: T2S: Enlil asked where they bury their dead...I think we're going to go investigate their graveyard,
looking for Baeltinn.
dragonclawsedw: o_____o *seems rather unnerved by this*
EbilArchmage: T2S: Are you alright?
Jak Snide: Miss, I am sworn to protect my home, as my forefathers were, and as the scouts and guards are. They will perform their duty to aid
you.
SongstressEnlil: It is clear that your people are not used to dealing with the undead. Don't throw away their lives on something so meager as
duty.
SongstressEnlil: If you desire to protect your home, do nothing. Do not appear that you intend to resist Baeltinn
SongstressEnlil: Give him nothing to worry about.
dragonclawsedw: IM: Enlil talks a lot..
SongstressEnlil: And you will not seem a threat.
dragonclawsedw: IM: I'm scared..
dragonclawsedw: <<scared>>
Jak Snide: *Toras, for once, seems to acknowledge a suggestion, and nods*
SongstressEnlil: <<Do not be afraid, Sara.>>
Jak Snide: You have a good point.
SongstressEnlil: Thank you.
KotokiFrog: Should we wait until morning to leave?
SongstressEnlil: I believe so.
dragonclawsedw: Morning?
SongstressEnlil: Sunlight does not favor the undead.
SongstressEnlil: *And you all seem to require rest.
EbilArchmage: T2S: Fear achieves nothing...only confidence and determination can solve problems. I know
everything must seem strange right now...but when you can master your fear, you can succeed. *nods*
Jak Snide: And..miss? I require that we keep the Heart here then.
SongstressEnlil: Can you resist it?
JamesTR2000 has left the room.
dragonclawsedw: o.o <<That...that was very deep Karis>>
EbilArchmage: T2S: It's what my uncle taught me.
SongstressEnlil: (And Enlil's Treatsy on the fulity of defense was not? :P)
dragonclawsedw: <<You both must be really smart>>
EbilArchmage: T2S: My uncle is a linguist and translator. He used to primarily work with religious texts, journals,
and diaries.
Jak Snide: *Toras nods* Somewhat, but I do not keep the dread item on my person. It is hidden away from those who would look for it,
although it seems that rumors have spread, despite our efforts.
dragonclawsedw: <<Maybe he can help translate all of Gaeran tongue for me>>
SongstressEnlil: If I do not return by sunset, send it to Doma. Take it to the Gates and tell them to mention my name to the Guard Captain, and
to Summon General Silvar
EbilArchmage: T2S: I bet you'll learn it soon enough.
Jak Snide: *Toras nods*
SongstressEnlil: Tell them to find it's connection to the Negative plane from outside this dimension, and Sever it by Light magic.
SongstressEnlil: *its
SongstressEnlil: *Hands it to the Halfling*
KotokiFrog: Well, then. Shall we get to bed? ^_^;;
Jak Snide: *He takes it, clearly in pain as it transfer from Enlil's hands to his own*
EbilArchmage: I'm going to be up a while longer.
Jak Snide: I...I must go now, and I bid all of you as good a sleep as possible.
EbilArchmage: And to you. *nods*
Jak Snide: *He bows his head once, then hurries out of the inn*
SongstressEnlil: You go. I shall sleep once everyone here leaves. Until then, I shall sing to lighten there spirits.
SongstressEnlil: *Stands, composes herself, and does so*
EbilArchmage: *stands up and moves over into a more secluded, more private, and possibly a bit quieter corner,
pulling out a book and beginning to read*
Jak Snide: (Feel free to CI if you wish, but I advise against it. Time is running short.)
SongstressEnlil: (Wow, and Wanderlust started the Lovely Choral bit as I said that)
Jak Snide: (*chuckles*)
SongstressEnlil: (Enlil's out unless something exceptional happens)
dragonclawsedw: o.o *looks to Karis, looking weary*
dragonclawsedw: I...tired....
dragonclawsedw: I sleep now Karis...
EbilArchmage: *turns a page* Alright, Sara. *nods*
KotokiFrog: *Kotoki heads off to find a room*
dragonclawsedw: *manages a weak smile* Goodnight Karis
EbilArchmage: Goodnight. *smiles back and resumes his reading*
dragonclawsedw: *slips off to bed*
KotokiFrog: (Note- it seems I've got twenty minutes. o_o)
SongstressEnlil: (FUCK!!!)
Jak Snide: (You are healed somewhat as you sleep. Karis is on 67 HP, Kotoki on 48.57)
SongstressEnlil: (Why?)
Jak Snide: (And SHIT~! >_<)
Jak Snide: (48/57)
EbilArchmage: (XD 48.57 HP)
dragonclawsedw: (Gah!)
Jak Snide: (Why must you go?! O_o)
EbilArchmage: (*facepalms*)
KotokiFrog: (Bed. o_o)
Jak Snide: (At 9pm? O_o)
EbilArchmage: (o.o;;; )
KotokiFrog: (I'll get out of it.)
KotokiFrog: (Hold on.)
SongstressEnlil: (Anything else happen, or do we all rest happily?)
Jak Snide: (*nods* If we're forced to do another session, I can do Saturday or Sunday night)
Jak Snide: (And you all rest fine)
SongstressEnlil: (yay!)
dragonclawsedw: (We pass our rest roll ^_^)
SongstressEnlil: (I wonder how my Singing rolls when?)
Jak Snide: (You managed to cheer the inn up, which was DC 40)
SongstressEnlil: (*Wow*)
SongstressEnlil: (Critical Singing?)
Jak Snide: (Almost. Rolled a 17)
SongstressEnlil: (Heh heh)
KotokiFrog: (Right. I've got more time.)
SongstressEnlil: (Yay!)
SongstressEnlil: (Morning start now!)
Jak Snide: (How much more?)
KotokiFrog: (I don't know. I wouldn't push my luck farther than an hour.)
EbilArchmage: (Then let's get to it.)
KotokiFrog: (...is anyone here free on Sunday?)
EbilArchmage: (No. v.v; )
SongstressEnlil: (Why are they sending you to bed so early, and I should be)
Jak Snide: *The sun peaks over the horizen to welcome in a less hostile day*
Jak Snide: (I am. And SHIT)
KotokiFrog: (Or will we be done by then?)
Jak Snide: (No chance I can finish this in an hour.)
SongstressEnlil: (I HATE LOSING CHARACTERS TO THE CHAT VOID!!!>_<)
Jak Snide: *The wind is calm, and the sun shines kindly down upon the land, a set of freshly made graves made outside Reevyn, the graveyard
off limits for an obvious reason. The snow has lessened slightly, but still impeds movement a fair bit*
SongstressEnlil: *Sleeps soundly. For once, is not searching for Aliester within the Plane of Dreams*
dragonclawsedw: *awakens slowly*
KotokiFrog: *opens one eye*
KotokiFrog: *then the other*
KotokiFrog: *then jumps out of bed*
dragonclawsedw: *sits up and rubs her eyes*
dragonclawsedw: <<Mom...?>>
dragonclawsedw: *blink* o.o ....<<Where am I....?>>
dragonclawsedw: ..... *remembers*
dragonclawsedw: o__o Oh...
SongstressEnlil: *slowly awakens*
SongstressEnlil: *Gets up from the tiny bed that she had to sleep almost doubled over on*
Jak Snide: *The inn is empty, those there before at home now*
dragonclawsedw: *emerges from her room and looks for Karis*
Jak Snide: *The barkeep is not present either, presmably asleep*
EbilArchmage: *fell asleep in the barroom against a wall*
SongstressEnlil: *Smooths out her robes, stretches; nearly filling the halfling sized room with her wings; then puts Maru on her belt and walks
out*
KotokiFrog: *stretches and takes a seat on the floor of the bar room*
dragonclawsedw: o.o IM: Ouch, I bet he'll have a cramp...
dragonclawsedw: *walks over to him* Karis o.o
SongstressEnlil: *And heads toward the main room*
SongstressEnlil: Are we prepared?
dragonclawsedw: Prepared for <<trouble>>?
KotokiFrog: I think so. ^_^
SongstressEnlil: <<To go to the Cementaryand seek Baeltinn, Sara>>
SongstressEnlil: *Nods*
Jak Snide: (Next session will be at 6pm EST on Sunday)
dragonclawsedw: (*hopes she can make that*)
EbilArchmage: *stirs slightly* Mmm...?
SongstressEnlil: (*Nods*)
SongstressEnlil: Miss Kotoki, Sara, I must ask something of you both, before we depart.
dragonclawsedw: Karis we going o.o
KotokiFrog: Yes?
SongstressEnlil: *exhales a little, somewhat fearing what is to come next*
SongstressEnlil: When we meet Baeltinn...
dragonclawsedw: *shakes him gently*
SongstressEnlil: Please, do not try to kill him.
EbilArchmage: Huh? *wakes up, rubbing his eyes*
EbilArchmage: Ah...morning Sara...
KotokiFrog: ...
dragonclawsedw: ^_^ Good morning
KotokiFrog: Why not?
SongstressEnlil: Because another death will not make this situation any better.
SongstressEnlil: All it will serve to do is make us as terrible as he.
KotokiFrog: That's... very idealistic.
SongstressEnlil: Perhaps.
SongstressEnlil: But it is also the truth.
KotokiFrog: Unfortunately, in these circumstances, it will probably come down to us or him...
EbilArchmage: *stands up, hitting his head on the halfling's roof in the process*
dragonclawsedw: o.o We go to cemetary
SongstressEnlil: We can stop him, if needs be.
EbilArchmage: >.O *ducks reflexively, rubbing his head*
KotokiFrog: And if he is allowed to live, he will only move on to kill again.
SongstressEnlil: Cripple him, if needed.
SongstressEnlil: No
SongstressEnlil: Kotoki, do you know why he desires the Heart?
KotokiFrog: I do.
SongstressEnlil: Then please tell me.
dragonclawsedw: o.o You okay Karis?
EbilArchmage: Uh...yeah...ow.
KotokiFrog: It possesses power that any necromancer would want.
SongstressEnlil: And why does he want it?
KotokiFrog: To be able to raise an army of the dead, one assumes.
KotokiFrog: What else?
KotokiFrog: The only good necromancer is a dead one-
KotokiFrog: o_o
KotokiFrog: IM: What am I talking about? I sound like Jak.
SongstressEnlil: Is an assumption truly grounds to commit an atrocity?
SongstressEnlil: We do not know why he desires it.
dragonclawsedw: o.o <<what are you two arguing about?>>
EbilArchmage: ...Enlil...I have to take a moment to disagree with you...
KotokiFrog: *takes several deep breaths*
SongstressEnlil: I wish to find out. Once I know, I can convince him otherwise.
EbilArchmage: ...why would anyone try to seize a powerful artifact of darkness by force for any other reason?
EbilArchmage: I agree that we should first try to change his mind, if at all possible...
SongstressEnlil: I do not know. And I intend to find out.
EbilArchmage: ...I can't think of any other reason...
EbilArchmage: ...people only want weapons so they can kill others...
SongstressEnlil: Have you heard of Astrynax, Karis?
dragonclawsedw: Weapon for self defense....
dragonclawsedw: *pulls military fork off her back*
EbilArchmage: No.
dragonclawsedw: But heart not self defense...heart hurt...
SongstressEnlil: That is surprising, given his history.
SongstressEnlil: He desired to destroy the world.
EbilArchmage: *nods*
SongstressEnlil: And had the potential to do so.
SongstressEnlil: No one knew why.
EbilArchmage: Who defeated him?
SongstressEnlil: I did.
EbilArchmage: *nods again*
SongstressEnlil: I asked him why
EbilArchmage: ...and...unable to give you a proper answer...he just gave up?
SongstressEnlil: And from that, I was able to help him redeem himself.
EbilArchmage: Interesting...*nods*
SongstressEnlil: No, he told me why. And using that, I was able to show himhow he was wrong
KotokiFrog: *blinks several times*
EbilArchmage: I suppose that if we can convince people to listen to us that we have a duty to do so rather than
make rash actions we may regret later...
dragonclawsedw: Too much talk ....do not understand...we go to cemetary...
SongstressEnlil: *Notices that*
EbilArchmage: ...and anything to prevent the loss of life. *nods*
SongstressEnlil: Thank you, Karis.
KotokiFrog: If you have experience to back up your beliefs, Miss Enlil...
KotokiFrog: Then we won't kill him. ^_^;;
dragonclawsedw: IM: Talking too fast! >.<
SongstressEnlil: Thank you as well, Kotoki. *Bows to her a little*
SongstressEnlil: Now, let us be off.
SongstressEnlil: *With that, she heads out.*
EbilArchmage: (Can I attempt something telepathy based?)
dragonclawsedw: I hope <<giant chicken>> is okay...
EbilArchmage: I'm sure the chocobos are alright. *nods*
EbilArchmage: Are you having trouble understanding us, Sara?
dragonclawsedw: *blinks, then nods*
EbilArchmage: Hmm...maybe...a temporary solution...?
Jak Snide: *Enlil walks outside to find the two chocobos waiting outside, a scroll case strapped to the saddle of the red one*
SongstressEnlil: *Walks over and opens the case. And presuming there is a scroll, reads it*
dragonclawsedw: Solu..tion?
EbilArchmage: (Do you think it might be possible for Karis, using his telepathy, to transmit everything he's
thinking/understanding to Sara, giving her the ability to understand the spoken word more effectively [without
flooding her mind]?)
Jak Snide: *There is both a note and a map within. The map shows the location of the graveyard with respect to Reeyvn*
dragonclawsedw: *heads outside*
Jak Snide: (He'd have to dumb it down a bit, or Sara would get a headache, but aye)
KotokiFrog: *likewise*
Jak Snide: *The note reads as follows:*
SongstressEnlil: *Reads Aloud*
Jak Snide: Dear Friend,
EbilArchmage: (Excellent. Then he's going to try to do that.)
EbilArchmage: *focuses for a moment*
Jak Snide: Enclosed within is a map which will show you the way to where you must go. May Gaera be with you.
Jak Snide: Toras Featherfoot.
dragonclawsedw: (*might have to go soon*)
EbilArchmage: (*curses*)
dragonclawsedw: (>V<)
KotokiFrog: A map? That'll be useful.
SongstressEnlil: IM: It is. Astrynax and Sorune have both told me this.
SongstressEnlil: *Studies it for a moment, then hands it to Kotoki*
Jak Snide: (>_< Gah...we've got a third session waiting, so it may not be too bad)
EbilArchmage: *assuming he's successful, Sara should have a fairly good understanding, as a result of Karis
understanding, of whatever's being said*
KotokiFrog: *looks at map*
dragonclawsedw: o.o *blinks* ... O_o ... o_O...
Jak Snide: (Obviously, if he's occupied with something, such as a debate, or combat, he won't be able to do this)
EbilArchmage: (Of course.)
EbilArchmage: Is that better?
Jak Snide: (And Sara has crappy mental Engrish subtitles)
dragonclawsedw: (XD)
KotokiFrog: (Hee.)
SongstressEnlil: (<---Is the Good dub, baby)
dragonclawsedw: (*has to go* >V<)
EbilArchmage: (>.< Oh well, at least we can continue tomorrow...)
SongstressEnlil: When you are ready, I will fly ahead and scout.
dragonclawsedw: (Yeah >V<)
SongstressEnlil: (Except for Toki)
dragonclawsedw has left the room.
KotokiFrog: (*huggles all*)
Jak Snide: (*huggles back* Off to sleep?)
EbilArchmage: (Oh, I meant Sunday.)
SongstressEnlil: (KATES FAMILY IS ON THE FUCKING LIST!!)
Jak Snide: (It is Saturday for you EST peeps now)
