[17:00] <@Xho> Northeastern Koldenwelt, 31 NA. In a city named Uskolia, an independent territory owned by a Deiwos family, a number of adventurers were invited to talk about the Forgotten Lands, a place which intrigued many. [17:01] <@Xho> The person who invited them, a Néva named Riad, waited in a bar of a somewhat insalubrious nature. [17:01] <@Xho> (Néva are like snow-elves fyi) [17:02] <@Xho> Riad was reading a book on the mythos of the ancient world, stories revolving around the Orichalcum Elves and Colossi. [17:03]  The Collector had traveled for days to arrive to this city, no problem, he had walked for longer. There was a good reason, the guy who had invited him to come said that in the reward would be artifacts. [17:04]  He arrived at the bar, he wished that the host paid drinks [17:04]  (Neva is a river) [17:04] <@Xho> (hur nao i remember) [17:04]  (Ok) [17:04] <@Xho> As he turned a page, he noticed an ink print sketch of a ginormous demonic figure, with intricate designs. The book labelled him simply as 'The Adversary'. Before he read more, he noticed The Collector and shut the book. [17:05]  Walking into the bar was a juman who stood jut above two metres tall. His face was obscured by a thick, worn brown-green hood. He sat at the counter and slumped over it, he had heard rumours of a journey up north. [17:05]  human* [17:05] <@Xho> (jooman) [17:05]  (Jew man) [17:05] <@Xho> (geezush) [17:05] <@Xho> (c) [17:05]  A black vulture flew outside of the bar and then landed on the window. It had bright green eyes which watched the others on the room. [17:06] <@Xho> Riad went over to The Collector but also noticed the tall human there as well. [17:06]  Slung over the back of the human's shoulder was a greatsword strapped to a leather sheathe that allowed for him to slip it out at the side. [17:06] <@Xho> He sat between them, ordering three drinks. [17:06] <@Xho> He put his book on the counter, and took a long sip before stopping. [17:07]  A blue-furred Lagosi with a rather intricately designed wooden arm walked into the room, carrying a katana on his side and a rather noticeable sword of a curious nature upon his back, like it was a massive dagger. The Lagosi tripped and stumbled onto the floor. [17:07]  The vulture laughed at the Lagosi's fall. [17:07] <@Xho> Riad turned around, turned back, and then sharply turning back, realising he was one of the team. He got off his stool and offered the Lagosi his hand. [17:08]  he human, Marcos, looked to his side a little. [17:08] <@Xho> Riad - Need some assistance, there? [17:08]  The Lagosi looked up and blinked before holding out the hand not made of wood. [17:08]  Marcos grabbed the tankard he was given and drank it down. [17:08]  Hachi - I-It would be appreciated. [17:09] <@Xho> Riad pulled Hachi up to his feet, looking curiously at the dagger on his back. [17:09] <@Xho> Riad - I see that almost all of us are here. Well, if you please, come this way. [17:09]  Finally, seemingly out of nowhere. a small, lithe draconic figure wearing a monocle flew into the room, landing on the floor. His clothes were simple, suited for adventures, but at the same time were made of rare materials which signified his status as a noble. [17:09] <@Xho> (I'll move that down [17:09] <TheBuilder> The Collector also noticed the dagger [17:10] <TheBuilder> Collector - Hey Lagosi, it isn't a Draonggr dagger? [17:10] <@Xho> Riad walked through the bar, to a back room which was empty, and sat down in the main chair. [17:10] <Imperios> Lekren-Lax - Greetings, sir, and well met. [17:10] <Monet> marcos lifted himself from the seat, one woman at the bar stepped back seeing him as he walked though into the back room. [17:10] <Hachi_> Hachi - Huh? This crappy old thing? Yeah, I guess it's a dagger. [17:11] <Hachi_> Hachi followed Riad, an innocent smile on his face. [17:11] <OluapWorker> The vulture jumped off the window and was enveloped into a blue energy, morphing into a tall, beaked humanoid. [17:12] <TheBuilder> Collector - I reconocize the Draonggr work when I see it, where do you get it? [17:12] <TheBuilder> (*recognize) [17:12] <@Xho> Riad waited for the rest of the party to sit down. [17:13] <Hachi_> Hachi - I-I'm afraid that's none of your concern...s-stranger. [17:13] <Imperios> Lekren-Lax - May I join the discussion? [17:13] <Imperios> Lekren flew to the Collector. [17:13] <@Xho> Riad - I did invite you here, if you so remember. [17:13] <OluapWorker> The Sea Witch walked up to Riad's location and sat down, but in the air. [17:13] <Imperios> Lekren-Lax - Ah, yes. Of course. [17:14] <TheBuilder> The Collector - Yes, sorry... mister... sorry I forgot your name [17:14] <Imperios> Lekren sat on one of the smaller chairs, looking at his employer with interest. [17:14] <Monet> Marcos leaned agaisnt a wall and folded his arms. He pulled down his hood to reveal a combed mass of strawberry-blonde hair and deep chestnut eyes. [17:15] <TheBuilder> The Collector looked his employer impatient [17:15] <@Xho> Riad - You're not sitting down? [17:15] <Hachi_> Hachi didn't reply and looked towards Riad, he had enough of talking to the Collector. He didn't trust strangers much. [17:15] <Hachi_> Or rather, wasn't very confident around them. [17:15] <Monet> Marcos - I hope you don't mind if I stand. [17:16] <@Xho> Riad - Hm. Well stand if you must. [17:16] <TheBuilder> The Collector hearing a sound [17:17] <TheBuilder> He stands up quickly [17:17] <@Xho> Riad stood up, and went over to a cupboard. From it, he pulled a large scroll, almost as large as himself. He dragged it to the table, laid it on there, and unfolded it. It came to reveal a vastly detailed map of Koldenwelt. [17:17] <TheBuilder> The Collecotr - Koldenwelt, I think [17:18] <Imperios> Lekren - Hm-hm. [17:18] <Monet> Marcos - An impressive map. [17:18] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - It's not that there would be anywhere else but Koldewelt. [17:18] <Hachi_> Hachi - Koldenwelt? What's that? [17:19] <@Xho> Riad - Koldenwelt indeed. I suppose you're all wondering why you're here. My name is Riad, and you are all a group of adventurers looking for different things from this. But I haven't told you where we will go just yet. [17:19] <@Xho> Riad looked confused at Hachi. [17:19] <@Xho> Riad - ...The world? [17:19] <Hachi_> Hachi - ...It's called Koldenwelt? [17:19] <@Xho> Riad - ...Yes? [17:19] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - Great. You invited a child who doesn't even know the name of the world he lives in. [17:19] <@Xho> (Riad's whole name is Riadmanath btw) [17:19] <TheBuilder> The Collector - Oh, for the Ensimmäisen Seppä! [17:20] <Monet> Archavior - <<how could you not know this child?>> [17:20] <Monet> you child* [17:20] <Hachi_> Hachi - I was never taught in school! [17:20] <Hachi_> (Can the others hear Archavior?) [17:20] <Monet> (No) [17:20] <@Xho> Riad - The place we are going to is a place that has long since been...forgotten by memory. Quite an apt name really. [17:20] <Monet> Archavior - <<did your parents never tell you that name?>> [17:20] <OluapWorker> The Sea Witch leaned forward, still floating. [17:21] <@Xho> Riad reached his fingers over the map, until it rested on a secluded point in the far northeast of the world. The name was simply 'Forgotten Lands'. [17:21] <TheBuilder> The Collector cocked hugehis head [17:21] <Imperios> Lekren - Ah, the Forgotten Lands. I've heard of it. Many a traveler have tried to explore it... none returned. [17:21] <Imperios> *have [17:21] <Hachi_> Hachi - The Forgotten Lands? Never heard of it. [17:22] <OluapWorker> The Sea Witch smiled. [17:22] <@Xho> Riad sighed and his posture lowered as Hachi said what he did. [17:22] <@Xho> Riad - ...Yes. The Forgotten Lands. Anyone familiar with the legends surrounding that place? Sea Witch - I've heard of some. [17:23] <Hachi_> Hachi - Unicorns? Pegasi? ...Horses? Are they there? [17:23] <TheBuilder> The Collector - Storms, dragons, monsters... artifacts [17:23] <Monet> Marcos - Weren't there once dragons living up there? [17:23] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - Legends say the greatest of dragons once called that place his home. [17:23] == Xho_ [5adadd2c@gateway/web/freenode/ip.90.218.221.44] has joined #ForgottenLandsStoof [17:23] <Xho_> (dum) [17:23] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - Legends say the greatest of dragons once called that place his home. [17:23] <Xho_> (anyone get my last message?) [17:24] <Xho_> (suppose you did hur) [17:24] <Imperios> (nein) [17:24] <Monet> Archavior - <<It would please me greatly to see the legacy of my kind's ancestors!>> [17:24] <TheBuilder> The Collector - The fallen dragon, I heard about it [17:24] <Hachi_> Hachi - Hah, everybody knows that Archavior is the stro-- Uhh, I mean, t-that sounds interesting. [17:24] <Monet> Marcos - Archa-what? [17:24] <Hachi_> Hachi - N-Nobody. [17:24] <TheBuilder> The Collector - Yes, I must be agree with the child [17:25] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - Dragons are always interesting beings...unless it's Kimorgos. He's no fun. [17:25] <TheBuilder> The Collector - Who? [17:25] <Xho_> Riad - Ah. So you know that this was a kingdom of dragons at one point. Nalúnt Earth-Scorcher was the name. And the main city in the Forgotten Lands is called 'Polis-Nalúnt', or Nalúnt's City. And then you know the whole deal with The Adversary destroying the place, I assume. [17:25] <Imperios> Lekren - Indeed we are. [17:25] <Imperios> (move it abovwe) [17:26] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - I might tell you more later if I feel like it. [17:26] <TheBuilder> The Collector - The Nalúnt? [17:26] <OluapWorker> The Sea Witch shuddered at the mention of the Adversary. [17:26] <Xho_> Riad - Yes, Nalúnt. Legendary Dragon, Storm Drake, et cetera. [17:26] <Xho_> Riad noticed the Sea Witch shudder. [17:26] <Monet> Marcos - Hrmph. Since when have dragons ever been good? [17:27] <Xho_> Riad - Problem there? [17:27] == Xho [5adadd2c@gateway/web/freenode/ip.90.218.221.44] has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds] [17:27] <Hachi_> Hachi - Never heard of either. [17:27] <Imperios> Lekren-Lax looked at Marcos, annoyed. [17:27] <Imperios> Lekren-Lax - That's racism, sir. [17:27] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - The Adversary is said to be linked to...the crystal monsters... [17:27] <TheBuilder> The Collector - The evilness and godness are relative [17:27] <Xho_> Riad paused, not understanding what the Sea Witch was talking about. [17:27] <Monet> Marcos turned his head to Lekren - And this bothers you? [17:28] <Xho_> Riad - ...Well... [17:28] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - ...Go on. [17:28] <Imperios> Lekren - Hmph. You Deiwos despise what you fear... [17:29] <TheBuilder> The Collector - Hey, the both! Have some respect for our host! Mister... [17:29] <Xho_> Riad - ...Nothing. You can tell me later. Anyway, the journey is around 200 miles north, and from there, we turn northeast for 400 miles until we reach Nalúnt's City. [17:29] <Monet> Marcos slowly reached his hand towards his knife, but refrained from touching it. [17:29] <Imperios> Lekren breathed in Marcos's direction, creating a small cloud of superheated gas. [17:29] <TheBuilder> The Collector look the roof, making the accounts [17:30] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - Any idea of what lives in there now? [17:30] <Monet> Marcos staggered back and drew his arming sword. [17:30] <Hachi_> Hachi - 600 miles travel? Hah, easy peasy! So, where are the horses? The carriages? [17:30] <TheBuilder> The Collector - This is around... 20 days or more [17:30] <Monet> Marcos - Scaly little bastard! [17:30] <Xho_> Riad - I'm afraid I do not know. The Forgotten Lands have been left bare for 200,000 years. Perhaps little longer. [17:31] <Xho_> Riad - Oh, how silly of me. I do believe we're missing a member. [17:31] <TheBuilder> The Collector looked Hachi - Do you think that I can ride a horse? [17:31] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - You stop fighting before I turn you all into Smeevers! [17:31] <Xho_> Riad counted the number of people. [17:31] <Xho_> Riad - Definitely missing one. [17:31] <TheBuilder> The Collector - And then I smash you [17:32] <Monet> Archavior - <<my kind have visited the cold north before, but not my kin>> [17:32] <TheBuilder> (move that above) [17:32] <Monet> Marcos sheathed his sword. [17:32] <TheBuilder> The Collector - One? You can are talking about... Him... [17:32] <Hachi_> Hachi - Hey, I'm just wondering if he can afford the horses to take us here. [17:33] <TheBuilder> (*can't) [17:33] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - Pfff. Horses. [17:33] <Monet> Marcos - *mutters under his breath* A stunted dragon, a beastman, a selfish giant and a hag. I'm better off making the journey on my own... [17:33] <Xho_> Riad - Horses? Well...for the first 125 miles or so Horses are optional. It does get cold...then mountainous...then even colder... [17:33] <Hachi_> Hachi's jaw dropped. [17:33] <Imperios> Lekren - My brother is a respected member of the Zeppelin Guild. He could help us with transport. [17:33] <Hachi_> Hachi - I-I have to walk...over 500 miles... [17:34] <Xho_> Riad - Not to mention, the winds are severely biting. [17:34] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - Pfff. Flying machines. [17:34] <TheBuilder> The Collector - I always wanted to take a zeppelin, it is a fantastic machine [17:34] <Monet> Marcos - My horse is hardy. [17:35] <Hachi_> Hachi - Hey, who is the guest we're missing? [17:35] <Xho_> Whilst the group were talking, Hachi began to notice another presence in the room. [17:35] <TheBuilder> The Collector - Mrss Sea Witch, not all of we could fly by our own [17:35] <Xho_> (c) [17:35] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - That's your problem, not mine. [17:35] <Hachi_> Hachi tilted his head and then his ears perked. [17:35] <TheBuilder> The Collector - Wait... oh yes... is him... [17:35] <Xho_> Riad - I hope he doesn't keep us waiting. Money doesn't do it for him. [17:36] <Monet> Marcos - I prefer travelling alone. [17:36] <Xho_> The figure was sat behind the group, well wrapped in clothes, legs folded and was smoking a pipe of sorts. [17:37] <Hachi_> Hachi turned slowly and coughed as the smoke entered into his nose. [17:37] <TheBuilder> The Collector - Great...Now the expedition could be interesting [17:37] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - There is a reason no one goes to the Forgotten Lands by themselves. [17:37] <Xho_> Riad turned, and noticed the figure behind them. He was avian by nature and his wings obscured a majority of his features. [17:38] <Monet> Marcos - I happen to travel faster on my own. [17:38] <Imperios> Lekren-Lax - She is true. One does not simply go to the Forgotten Lands. [17:38] <Xho_> (lul) [17:38] <OluapWorker> The Sea Witch looked at the figure and groaned. [17:38] <Xho_> Riad - Hm. I guess our last guest was here before us all. [17:38] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - Oh great, it's "him". [17:38] <Hachi_> Hachi - ...Kinmoe Runs Raid Rivers. [17:39] <Xho_> (hohoho) [17:39] <TheBuilder> The Collector - Sea Witch That was that I said [17:39] <Xho_> As the avian figure stood up, it almost levelled Marcos in height. It turned around, and walked to the group. [17:39] <TheBuilder> The Collector - It's him... The World-Walker [17:40] <Imperios> Lekren-Lax - ...who's that? [17:40] <Monet> Marcos turned to the figure and had a slight smile on his face. [17:40] <Xho_> Kinmorunddraver - Bold attempt to pronounce my name, Hachi but it's pronounced 'Kinmorunddraver'. [17:40] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - Someone who thinks he owns Koldewelt. Bhhrg. [17:40] <TheBuilder> The Collector - I always want to know you Mr. Kinmorunddraver [17:41] <Hachi_> Hachi stared at the figure for just a moment, before running forward and wrapping his arms around Kinmorunddraver's leg. [17:42] <Monet> Marcos - I've heard stories of you. *chuckles* I imagined you'd ebtaller. [17:42] <Hachi_> Hachi - It's good to see you again...Kinmo. [17:42] <Monet> be* [17:42] <Xho_> Kinmorunddraver - Uh...nice to see you again too...I guess. [17:43] <TheBuilder> The Collector saw Kinmorunddraver sword - Dynarsayangran, isn't it? The perfect design... [17:43] <Xho_> Kinmorunddraver - A lot of people tend to think I am tall. Size tends not to matter. [17:43] <Xho_> Kinmorunddraver - You know the name of the sword? Hm. Well informed. [17:44] <Monet> Archavior - <<Look at that Deiwos whoring over a relic as though he has phallic dreams of it!>> [17:44] <Imperios> Lekren - I definitely agree. Size does not matter! [17:44] <OluapWorker> (olol) [17:44] <Imperios> Lekren-Lax flew higher in the air. [17:44] <Xho_> Riad - ...Back to the task at hand...I guess. The Forgotten Lands. Around a 600 mile journey...it should take us around 20 days to reach the city's gates. [17:44] <TheBuilder> The Collector - I am always informed about the best... designs of weapons [17:45] <Xho_> Kinmorunddraver - Well, let's put it this way. I wouldn't trade the Eye for this sword. [17:45] <Hachi_> (Inato - u betta fuckin not) [17:46] <Hachi_> Hachi - Kinmo loves his sword very much, it's best not to touch it. [17:46] <Xho_> Riad - ...And I don't think horses might be suitable for the cold weather. There are some Dzep (winter-style horse hybrid thingamajigs) at the gates of the town which I had to buy. [17:46] <TheBuilder> The Collector - Yes of course... I can understand it... If I had this...beautiness I never change it for nothing [17:47] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - I need no steed. [17:47] <Xho_> Riad - Will you need a pack mule though? [17:47] <Monet> Marcos - It will be a shame to leave my stallion here. [17:47] <Hachi_> Hachi - Don't worry, Mrs. Bird, I can carry your stuff for you! [17:47] <Xho_> Kinmorunddraver - I surely hope you didn't buy one with me in mind, Néva. [17:48] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - I have nothing to take. I need no steed, I said. [17:48] <TheBuilder> The Collector eyes left the sword for a moment [17:48] <Xho_> Riad - ...None of you need steeds? Hm. I guess i'll have to persuade the stable owner for my 400 coins back. [17:48] <TheBuilder> The Collector - Yes and I could carry my stuff by myself... [17:48] <Hachi_> Hachi - Hey! [17:49] <Hachi_> Hachi - I need a steed! [17:49] <Xho_> Kinmorunddraver - Hachi, you walked more than 600 miles when you were with me. What makes this so different? [17:49] <Imperios> Lekren - I need no steed. [17:49] <Monet> marcos - I would appreciate a steed. [17:49] <Hachi_> Hachi - W-Well...it's a luxury you know, Kinmo? [17:50] <Xho_> Kinmorunddraver - I thought I taught you that luxuries were weaknesses. [17:50] <Monet> Marcos - Now, when will we leave? I don't enjoy staying in one place for too long. It... gets dangerous. [17:50] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - You might need sometong to survive your way there. Me? [17:50] <OluapWorker> The Sea Witch teleported around the room. [17:50] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - I need nothing. [17:50] <OluapWorker> something* [17:50] <Hachi_> Hachi - Gah...I know, I know, Kinmo. Fine, I'll walk. [17:51] <Xho_> Kinmorunddraver - Save your tricks for later, 'Sea Witch'. [17:51] <TheBuilder> The Collector - Yes, I guess that we will need it [17:52] <Monet> test [17:52] <Xho_> Riad - In that case, take the horses to carry provisions. We will set out at first light tomorrow morning. Tonight would be an idea to enjoy yourself or get provisions, weapons or whatnot before you say goodbye to civilisation for three weeks. [17:53] <Hachi_> Hachi - Enjoy myself? Oh boy! Anybody have any soothing cream? [17:53] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - Heh. Nothing different for me then. [17:53] <Xho_> Kinmorunddraver - When you put it like that, it seems almost depressing. [17:53] <TheBuilder> The Collector - I said godbye to it centuries ago [17:53] <Monet> Marcos - Perhaps I could do with a rest in a more comfortable bed... [17:55] <Xho_> Riad - Very well. I will see you all here in the morning. We'll leave with or without you, so please be here soon. [17:55] <TheBuilder> The Collector - Well I think that this met it is ended... Humm, talking about other thing, Mr. Kinmorunddraver, I am absolutly sure that you have lot of items that you find in your journies [17:55] <Xho_> Riad rolled up the map, walked out and got the book before going upstairs to sleep. [17:56] <OluapWorker> Sea Witch - I expect you all to die on me. Except mister invicible over there. So I see you all tomorrow, I suppose. [17:56] <Xho_> Kinmorunddraver - I have found many items but only a small number of great value. [17:56] <Monet> Archavior - <<Can't you cut out that Diewos' tongue?>> [17:56] <Monet> Marcos - Hrmph, I have survived much you know. [17:56] <Xho_> Kinmorunddraver's clothes were well adorned with numerous small trinkets from past journeys. [17:56] <OluapWorker> The Sea Witch turned into a rat and entered a hole in the wall. [17:56] <Monet> Deiwos's* [17:57] <Xho_> Kinmorunddraver turned to leave the room, before putting his hand on Marcos' shoulder. [17:57] <TheBuilder> The Collector - Oh, ok, thanks to let me see the sword... [17:57] <Xho_> Kinmorunddraver - I'd be careful of that Lasogi over there. More so of the dagger. [17:57] <Xho_> Kinmorunddraver then turned away and walked out. [17:58] <Monet> Marcos turned to Kinmorunddraver with a small smile on his face.. [17:58] <TheBuilder> The Collector abandoned the bar whispering [17:58] <Monet> Marcos - *muttering* Name me something good borne from dragons... [17:58] <Hachi_> Hachi - Eggs! Dragon eggs! I heard they're tasty! [17:59] <TheBuilder> The Collector - This is sword is really beautiful... Yes beautiful [17:59] <Xho_> Kinmorunddraver left the bar, walked through the town to stand upon an overlook a couple of hundred metres from the town's gate. [17:59] <Imperios> Lekran - They aren't tasty, you Lagrosi ruffian! [17:59] <Hachi_> Hachi - *whispers* Hey Arch, did you ever lay dragon eggs? [18:00] <Monet> Marcos - Well I kind-of agree with the lagosi. Als oscales, good for shields. [18:00] <Hachi_> (Monet's ded) [18:00] <Xho_> (pause then) [18:00] <Xho_> (I was gonna keep it shorter but I have some more details to add) [18:01] <Hachi_> (The Sea Witch makes me laugh) [18:01] <Imperios> Lekron - Hmph. We're living, breathing beings like you. If we are cut, shall we not bleed?

[14:02] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver was stood on the edge of a hill, staring through an open space directly southeast. [14:02] <@Xho> Riad however, was fast asleep still in the inn. [14:03] <Monet> As he stared out, Marcos slowly approached, wearing his hood over his head as he looked at Kimno from a distance. [14:04] <@Xho> Kinmo felt Marcos' presence, but did nothing to greet or to distance himself from him. [14:05] <Monet> Marcos wasn't sure about approaching. He wasn't sure if Kimno was in morning or if he wanted to be alone. With a great sigh, he moved closer. [14:06] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - You have questions? [14:06] <Monet> Marcos - Well I... [14:07] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Do not be afraid to ask. [14:07] <@Xho> Whilst he was saying this, Kinmorunddraver was still looking fiercely southeast. [14:08] <Monet> Marcos shrugged - What is it that drives you to wander? Why not find a place to call home? [14:09] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - The place I once called 'home' was destroyed by Ateronash Mordrakis (Caligaduro). Since then, being the only one of your kind draws nothing but bad attention. [14:09] == Xho [5ad3ee90@gateway/web/freenode/ip.90.211.238.144] [14:09] == realname : 90.211.238.144 - http://webchat.freenode.net [14:09] == channels : @#ForgottenLandsStoof #sporewiki [14:09] == server   : rowling.freenode.net [Corvallis, OR, USA] [14:09] == idle     : 0 days 0 hours 0 minutes 38 seconds [connected: Sat May 11 12:44:03 2013] [14:09] == End of WHOIS [14:10] <Monet> Marcos - I'm sorry to hear... [14:10] <Monet> Marcos - have you ever thought about settling down somewhere remote? [14:10] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Remote? The only place remote in this world is the Forgotten Lands. [14:11] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - And what is your story? Judging by your armour and skin you are from the North. [14:13] <Monet> Marcos - I come from a town called Redhelm. Open expanses, hardy people, bitter winters... I loved it there [14:13] <Imperios> Lekren - Brrr... Winters. I don't like the cold myself. [14:14] <Monet> (you missed a bit of the story) [14:14] <Imperios> Lekren took a vial of alchemical liquid from his pocket and drank it greedly. [14:14] <Imperios> *greedily [14:14] <Imperios> (what happened0 [14:14] <@Xho> (Right now there's a chat between Marcos and Kinmo so you can Lekren to it if you want) [14:15] <Monet> From the way he talked, It was as though Marcos held some bad memory of Redhelm. he pulled his hood down and spoke in a more miserable tone. [14:17] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Hm....so why did you come here? # [14:18] <Monet> Marcos - Something...happened. I don't like to talk about it; bad memories, y'know? One winter like this I felt like I had no home ot go back to. [14:19] <Imperios> Lekren - I can understand you, sir. [14:19] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Then I could ask the same questions you asked me. [14:20] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - The reason why I came on this expedition is that there are powers stirring in both the North and South. And I am concerned as to what. [14:20] <Monet> Marcos - Some...powerful people want me dead. I can't go back because if I do they'll come and they'll kill everyone. Same goes for anywwehre I stay really. [14:21] <Imperios> Lekren - Reminds me of Rekan-Lax... one of the famous alchemists of my kind. [14:21] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver kept staring south. [14:23] <Monet> Marcos - So it seems we both share something in common. [14:24] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - To some degree, it seems. [14:25] <Monet> Marcos- Do you have any idea what may be stirring? [14:25] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver paused for a few moments. [14:25] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - ...How familiar are you with southern legends? [14:26] <Monet> Marcos - I know one or two stories. [14:27] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Well, the Néva spoke of a being called 'The Adversary'. Know anything about him? [14:27] <Imperios> Lekren - Siarkon, perhaps? [14:28] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Indeed. They are stirring again. Moving northwest. [14:29] <Monet> Marcos - I know many who can be considered an adversary. [14:29] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - But that does not fully concern me for the time being. They are a hundred days from us. [14:29] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Hm...what about the name 'Terror of the South'? [14:30] <Monet> Marcos - Vaguely. I remember hearing rumours of that name being used to describe some diety or other. [14:31] <Imperios> Lekren - Laknaggr... [14:31] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - He goes by another name. However it has become ill-fated on all tongues of Deiwos, Kelodhros and beasts. And yes, Laknaggr is another name. [14:32] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - I have a feeling that soon, Laknaggr, Ateronash Mordrakis, The Adversary or whatever you so wish to call it, will rise from its abyss. [14:33] <Monet> Marcos - I don't like the sound of that. [14:33] <Hachi_> (Inato - NOOOOOOOOOOH) [14:34] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - No being on this earth should. Fortunately, we are heading north. Further away from the Shiarchon and further away from such evils. Or so it should seem. [14:34] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver walked away from the group, heading further south. [14:34] <@Xho> (Gonna start now hur) [14:35] <@Xho> --- [14:35] <@Xho> Morning. Riad woke from the inn, and Kinmorunddraver did not return from wherever he went. [14:36] <Hachi_> Hachi yawned as he he was laying across a table, curled into a ball. [14:36] <@Xho> (all of u moov) [14:36] <@Xho> Riad - Hm. Hardly the place to sleep. Why didn't you take a bed? [14:36] <Monet> Marcos was at the inn's bar with a tankard in his hand. [14:37] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch was walking around impatiently, on the ceiling. [14:37] <Hachi_> Hachi - Hmm...? There were beds? [14:37] <Monet> Marcos - That's what inns have. [14:37] <Hachi_> Hachi - Oh...can we stay another night? [14:38] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver opened the door, and sat down next to Marcos. [14:38] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - No, we must leave! I'm growing tired of waiting. [14:39] <Monet> Marcos looked over to Kinmorunddraver with a smile. [14:39] <Hachi_> Hachi looked to Kinmorunddraver and hopped off the table. [14:39] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Even if you wanted to stay another night we couldn't. I travelled to Ar-Klith, and I have found that the Shiarchon militia are advancing north. [14:40] <@Xho> (Just for reference Kinmorunddraver can move very fast) [14:40] <Monet> Marcos - Then we must make haste. [14:40] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - Them? Ugh. It would be funner if we could lure them into the ocean so the Great Water Beast could devour them all. [14:40] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Pfft. Good luck with that. [14:41] <Hachi_> Hachi - The who-wat now? [14:41] <@Xho> Riad - Indeed. We will have to eat along the way. Judging by the the road, we should be near the Forgotten Land's entrance by nightfall. [14:41] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Shiarchon. Elves. Not good news. [14:41] <Hachi_> Hachi - Oh, dirty stinking Elveses? [14:42] <@Xho> Riad hurled an obsidian-cut dagger next to Hachi's paws. [14:42] <@Xho> Riad - I'm an elf, Lagosi. [14:42] <Monet> Marcos - Forget what you know about elves, the Shiarchon are no better than orcs or demons. [14:42] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch let out a laugher. [14:42] <Hachi_> Hachi jumped up and clinged to the ceiling, shivering. [14:42] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Get down from there. [14:43] <Hachi_> Hachi let out a whine and dropped onto the floor. On his head. [14:43] <Monet> Monet - And I know a thing or two about "demons". [14:43] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch laughed harder. [14:43] <@Xho> (Just for more reference they're on a similar latitude to Xa'in) [14:44] <Hachi_> (Xa wat now?) [14:44] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - I've had my dealings with demons. A certain one owns me a village. [14:44] <@Xho> (http://images.wikia.com/spore/images/d/de/KoldenweltTerrainTerritory.png look dere) [14:44] <@Xho> Riad pulled his dagger out of the table. [14:45] <@Xho> Riad - We must move now. If the World-Walker is correct then they might already have a few days' lead from Abyssus. [14:46] <Monet> Marcos put his tankard down and nodded. [14:47] <@Xho> Riad opened the door and held it. Kinmorunddraver walked out. [14:47] <@Xho> Riad - Like I said, if we move now, we should be near the Forgotten Lands by nightfall. [14:47] <Hachi_> Hachi followed Kinmorunddraver shortly after, taking his Draonoggr dagger and katana with him. [14:48] <Hachi_> Hachi - Yay, camping! [14:48] <OluapPlayer> (have to leave, might take a while to return) [14:48] == OluapPlayer has changed nick to OluapAway [14:48] <@Xho> (pause) [14:48] <@Xho> y u maek me sad [14:48] <Monet> Marcos followed and headed towards the stables. He travelled to say his goodbyes to a powerfully-built stallion waiting i nthe stables. He patted it on the throat affectionately. [14:56] == OluapAway has changed nick to OluapPlayer [14:56] <OluapPlayer> Well that was quicker than expected [14:57] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch dropped off the ceiling and followed. [14:57] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - That is an impressively built horse. Northern? [14:58] <Monet> Marcos - I like to keep mobile. He was one of the last things I took with me from Redhelm. [14:59] <Monet> Marcos - He's fast, stronger than msot horses and being born and bred in Redshire he is used to the cold. [14:59] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Pay the keeper here well enough and rest assured nothing shall fail such value. [14:59] <Imperios> Lekren-Lax - Wish I had that servant of mine with me. Unfortunately, he died. [14:59] <Imperios> Lekren looked at Marcos, surprised. [14:59] <Imperios> Lekren-Lex - I never understood that custom of your race. Why do you have to use horses? [15:00] <@Xho> Riad took a Dzep, which carried numerous kinds of provisions from the Néva culture. [15:00] <Hachi_> Hachi - Because walking is a pain in my ass. [15:00] <Imperios> Lekren, the first to take a look, look at the provisions though his monocle. [15:00] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - Deiwos are an unfortunate kind who lack mobility and have to rely on other animals. [15:00] <Monet> Marcos - He happens to also be good company while I travel. [15:00] <Imperios> Lekren-Lax - Ah, how wonderful! [15:01] <@Xho> Riad got another Dzep, which headed over to Hachi. The Dzep were very large horses; Kinmo's head was at its shoulder. [15:01] <Hachi_> Hachi looked at the Dzep and fell onto his rear in shock. [15:01] <Hachi_> Hachi - W-What...what is that? [15:01] <@Xho> Riad - The Snow Horses as the western culture call them are large in order to cope with the temperatures of the north. They're not as fast as say, normal horses, but they are not used for such purposes. [15:02] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - They remind me of horses from my own land. [15:02] <@Xho> (brb) [15:02] <@Xho> (keep going on random stoof) [15:03] <OluapPlayer> (u a random stoof) [15:03] <Hachi_> Hachi - What about you, Mrs. Bird? How will you be travelling? [15:03] <Imperios> Lekren-Lax - Cold? [15:04] <Imperios> Lekren-Lax drank another vial, which made his entire body shiver.] [15:04] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch, in a blink of an eye, teleported in front of Hachi. [15:04] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - Like this. [15:05] <Monet> Marcos - Alchemist's tonics are no match for a thick fur coat. [15:05] <Hachi_> Hachi squeaked out and curled into a ball. [15:05] <@Xho> Riad - Névari myths say that the Dzep were once centaurs who were turned into horses by Storm Drakes. [15:06] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Hm. Shame Storm Drakes no longer exist. [15:06] <Imperios> Lekren - Centaurs? Like the Caonima from the Caelunar Ridge? [15:06] <Monet> Marcos - Like I said, Little good comes from any dragon. [15:06] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Indeed. I haven't been there enough to gather any of their acquaintance. [15:07] <Imperios> Lekren - Blast you, Deiwos! [15:07] <Imperios> Lekren shouted, making the air around him ignite. [15:07] <Imperios> - Half-devil, half-child... [15:08] <Monet> Marcos grabbed the handle of his greatsword firmly [15:08] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch looked at Lekren with a raised eyebow. [15:08] <@Xho> Riad - Other Névari myths say that all dragons came from the World Dragon 'Kelodhros'. It isn't unfeasible. [15:08] <Monet> Marcos - Mention that to the mosnters that used to plague my homeland, snake! [15:09] <Imperios> Lekren - Ahem. My apologies, sir. [15:09] <Imperios> Lekren flew into the air. [15:09] <Hachi_> Hachi - Hah, that's dumb. It's more likely that the dragons evolved from normal lizards with magical assistance. [15:09] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - Next you're gonna say we all evolved from microbes. [15:09] <Hachi_> Hachi - A mic-what? [15:10] <Imperios> Lekren - Hah, madam! The Lord Protector's greatest men of science are currently studying that nonsensical theory. [15:10] <Imperios> *this [15:10] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch sneezed into hachi's face, covering it in goo and salty water. [15:10] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Well it is of common knowledge that all phoenixes came from Ecnisṇmrótijosawis (Soldalatel). [15:11] <Hachi_> Hachi screamed girlishly as he was covered. [15:11] <@Xho> Riad - Come. We must leave before townspeople wake up. [15:11] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - I do know all Khrokar come from the Great Water Beast. [15:11] <@Xho> Riad headed out with his Dzep, whilst Kinmorunddraver followed. [15:11] <Monet> Marcos - We can speak of such fey-tales more freely once we are on the move. [15:12] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - You better mount that Dzep, Lagosi. The Néva here is not wasting money. [15:12] <Hachi_> Hachi hopped onto another Dzep and smiled as it began walking. [15:12] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - I can change my size and I have seen microbes!...They're ugly as hell. [15:12] <Hachi_> (ninja'd) [15:12] <@Xho> (dam u) [15:12] <Monet> Marcos gave a final pat to his horse and went back inside for a few minutes, coming back out he mounted one of the Dzeps Riad had provided. [15:12] <OluapPlayer> (hur) [15:13] <@Xho> Riad headed to the left, and headed north. [15:13] <Hachi_> Hachi - My little pony, my little pony~! [15:13] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - If you're going to sing, at least sing it in the Old Tongue. [15:13] <OluapPlayer> (y u do dis) [15:13] <@Xho> Riad - Is the Old Tongue even spoken nowadays? [15:14] <Imperios> Lekren - Hah! I know that song back from my time in the Caelunar Ridge. The Centaurs of the Caonima Khanate are indeed masterful songwriters. [15:14] <Hachi_> Hachi - Ahem...Mei parvos equus, mei parvos equus~! [15:14] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - The only beings whose language could pass for it are the Shiarchon. I myself, and any being on this land who were alive during the Adamantine Age. [15:14] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - And apparently the Lagosi. [15:15] <Hachi_> Hachi - I heard you talk in Old Tongue and figured to work it out myself. [15:15] <Monet> Marcos - Clever boy. [15:15] <Imperios> Lekren - Mirabar quid sit amicitia. [15:15] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver coughed slightly and went quiet. [15:15] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Next you will all be speaking the Primordial Tongue. Then I will be impressed. [15:16] <Hachi_> Hachi - Kinmo, what does "sexualis phantasia" mean? I heard you say it in your sleep sometimes. [15:16] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Hm. Now I know for a fact you make it up. For one, I don't sleep. [15:16] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - That is pointless. It only makes you look old. [15:17] <Imperios> Lekren came closer to Hachi with a disapproving look on his face. [15:17] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Well, I am old. Perhaps I should at least accept that. [15:17] <Imperios> Lekren-Lax - Are all denizen of the Kame Isles so ghastly and uncivilised? [15:17] <Monet> Marcos - Sleeping can be a disadvantage at times. I learned of an elven technique months ago that keeps me alert whileI rest. [15:18] <Hachi_> Hachi - Kame Isles...? Oh right, home! No, I got kicked out. They were way too serious. [15:18] <@Xho> Riad - How old is 'old'? I myself am a century old. [15:18] <Imperios> Lekren - Hah. Tu louksnā ekwos. [15:18] <Imperios> (remove my last response) [15:18] <Hachi_> Hachi - Kinmo's old and he still has less wrinkles that Mrs. Bird! [15:18] <Hachi_> than* [15:19] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - Want me to sneeze on you again? [15:19] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Alpos kelodhros. [15:19] <OluapPlayer> (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zANV9XNwfE4 imagine the Sea Witch as this except with a beak hur) [15:20] <@Xho> Riad - Who speaks the Primordial Tongue nowadays? [15:20] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Only the most educated can speak a few words. Other than that, the Old Colossi can. [15:20] <Hachi_> Hachi - The Colossuses? [15:21] <Monet> Marcos - The colossi are real? [15:22] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - The Great Water Beast is certainly real. [15:22] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Of course they are. Of the Old Colossi, the Fire Colossus and Flora Colossus are the only ones still awake. [15:22] <Imperios> Lekren - I studied it in the Grand University of Arkenholdt when I was at the age of ten. Unfortunately, I remember little to nothing. Alchemy is my calling, not elder tongues of yore. [15:23] <@Xho> Riad - Awake? [15:23] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - There are three others who sleep under the earth. The Adversary is one of them. [15:23] <Hachi_> Hachi - Teehee, Flora Colossus. It's a giant flower. [15:24] <Monet> Archavior - <,The Young Prince of Fire and Fury. Yes he is real!>> [15:24] <Hachi_> Hachi - The who what now, Arch? [15:24] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - One of the sleeping Colossi, the Shadow Colossus, was once Nalúnt Earth Scorcher. [15:25] <@Xho> Riad - You said 'Old' Colossi. What are the new ones? [15:25] <Monet> Archavior - <<The child of the Queen of The Earth, what you may call the Earth Kolossus.>> [15:25] <Monet> Collossus* [15:25] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - I'm...not so certain. Perhaps Hachi knows of one. [15:25] <Imperios> Lekren - Arddraigr the Fiery, of course. [15:25] <Imperios> Lekren whispered in Undertongue. [15:25] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - Hello? The Great Water Beast? [15:26] <Hachi_> Hachi - Huh, me? Well, there's the Earth Colossus...that's all I know. [15:26] <@Xho> Kimorunddraver - So Korddraggren spawned a child? Interesting. [15:26] <Monet> Archavior - <<The Klaxxa is correct>> [15:26] <@Xho> Riad - I know of one Colossus who roams the far north of the world. Northern tongue calls him Kartansimal. He's apparently friendly, but reclusive. [15:27] <Monet> Archavior - <<Where I come from, both the Earth Colossus and Arddragir are revered and icons of faith. There are many temples dedicated to them>> [15:27] <Hachi_> Hachi - You're such a nerd, Arch. [15:27] <@Xho> As they travelled into a more open space, they could see a vast plain that moved upwards. In the horizon, they could see huge mountains which appeared dark. They were the entrance to the Forgotten Lands. [15:28] <Monet> Archavior - <<How am I a "nerd"?>> [15:28] <@Xho> Riad - Well, there's the entrance. We should be there by the end of the day. [15:28] <Hachi_> Hachi - You know a lot, like it's an obsession. [15:28] <Monet> Marcos - Kimorunddraver does the Lagosi have an imaginary friend? [15:29] <@Xho> Kimorunddraver - It's in his head, but not necessarily imaginary. [15:29] <Hachi_> Hachi - Hey! Arch is not an imaginary friend! [15:29] <Monet> Marcos - So where is he? [15:29] <Hachi_> Hachi - He's my sword, silly! [15:29] <@Xho> Kimorunddraver - Perhaps Hachi is better off answering that question. [15:29] <Monet> Archavior - <<...Did that Deiwos just compare ME to some child's fantasy?>> [15:30] <@Xho> Riad - A possessed sword? Isn't that dangerous? [15:30] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - ...Imaginary friend. [15:30] <Monet> Marcos looked at Hachi with confusion. [15:30] <Monet> Marcos - ...your sword. [15:30] <@Xho> Kimorunddraver - Not necessarily. The name suggests that the soul in the sword is from the western reaches of the world. [15:30] <Hachi_> Hachi - Yep! Archavior was once a big, strong dragon person! But now he's a dagger and I use him as a sword. [15:31] <Monet> Marcos blinked with shock. [15:31] <Hachi_> Hachi - You're just jealous because you don't have a talking sword! [15:31] <Monet> Marcos - Please someone tell me he made this all up. [15:31] <@Xho> Riad stopped in the road, with Kimorunddraver stopping also. He looked across the plain, and saw it was empty. [15:31] <Imperios> Lekren - A dragon person, huh? A Draonoggr? [15:32] <@Xho> Riad - Huh. Empty. [15:32] <Hachi_> Hachi also stopped and looked over to the plain. [15:32] <@Xho> Kimorunddraver - It isn't usually this empty. [15:32] <Hachi_> Hachi - Looks boring. Needs a party. [15:32] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - Shut your childish trap. [15:32] <OluapPlayer> (and off I go again) [15:32] <Hachi_> Hachi - Go put on some more anti-aging cream. [14:15] <@Xho> The group heard a distant roar. It didn't seem familiar to Riad, but Kinmorunddraver knew the roar. [14:15] <Imperios> Ngh [14:16] <Imperios> (I am trying to write an essay) [14:16] <@Xho> (moov) [14:17] <Hachi_> Hachi - Huh? A dragon? [14:17] <@Xho> Riad - No dragon sounds like that. [14:17] <Monet> Marcos - Then what. [14:18] <Imperios> Lekren - An Abyssus demon, perhaps? It is within the realm of possibility. [14:18] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver looked around the plains, and noticed a plume of smoke rising in the distance. [14:18] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Over there. [14:19] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - Hehehehe, a challenge... [14:19] <@Xho> Riad went over to the plume of smoke, with Kinmo following. As they got closer, they noticed it was a nearby hold that went up in flames. [14:19] <Monet> Marcos - Damnit... [14:20] <@Xho> Riad - What could have done that? [14:20] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Not quite sure. We should take a look. [14:20] <@Xho> As Kinmorunddraver examined the city walls, he noticed details that made him seem uneasy. [14:21] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Perhaps you should go along and i'll wait with Hachi here. [14:21] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch turned into a vulture and flew above the city. [14:21] <Hachi_> Hachi - Huh? Why me? [14:21] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - From what I can see from here you don't want to go in there, Hachi. You're not...quite there yet. [14:22] <Hachi_> Hachi - Hey what are you sayin? [14:22] <Hachi_> Hachi - I'm a big boy now! [14:22] <@Xho> As the Sea Witch flew over, she saw that the castle's main structure was destroyed, with resulting buildings even more destroyed. [14:22] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Trust me. [14:22] <Monet> Marcos - I used to believe that...until Orlembrook. [14:23] <Monet> Marcos - Some things you simply can't be ready for. [14:23] <Hachi_> Hachi folded his arms and pouted, turning away. [14:23] <@Xho> Riad - Marcos, Lekren, come with me. Kinmo, stay with Hachi. [14:23] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - All this damage hints an invasion. [14:23] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Understood. [14:24] <Imperios> Lekren - But by whom? [14:24] <@Xho> Riad went with Marcos and Lekren closer to the hold's walls. [14:24] <Monet> Marcos nodded and followed Riad. [14:25] <@Xho> As they got closer, they noticed that as they got closer, from the castle's gates hung charred corpses of what seemed to be the ruling family there. To their left and right, pikes were set up with charred corpses skewed on them. [14:25] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - Let's hope it's just some big angry animal. [14:25] <@Xho> (dum mind lapse on the sentence there) [14:26] <Monet> Marcos gave a doubtful look to the Sea Witch. [14:26] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - Fresh meat. Could take some home for Squarks. [14:26] <OluapPlayer> (hur) [14:26] <@Xho> Riad - Whatever invaded this place definitely didn't want anything to survive. That's probably why the plains are empty. [14:27] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - What are you staring at, human? [14:27] <Imperios> Lekren - Siarkon... [14:28] <@Xho> Riad - I seriously doubt there's anything alive in there if whatever invaded this place was that thorough. [14:28] <@Xho> Riad - ...Shiarchon? Are you sure? [14:28] <Monet> Marcos - The population were slaughtered and placed on pikes. This is the work of no animal. [14:29] <@Xho> Riad looked at Lekren with disdain, and turned away from the hold, returning to Kinmorunddraver and Hachi. [14:29] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - I have only noticed the pikes. And Shiarchon? It's possible. [14:30] <@Xho> Riad - The entire population was slaughtered. It was invaded, and the Klaxxa and Sea Witch say it's Shiarchon that invaded the place. [14:30] <Hachi_> Hachi - S-Slaughtered? Everybody? [14:30] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - What would Shiarchon be doing three thousand miles north of Abyssus? [14:30] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - It certainly weren't the crystal demons, otherwise the city would have been turned into crystal. [14:31] <@Xho> Riad - Yes, slaughtered. I suggest we move on before something comes. [14:31] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - Perhaps they are claiming territory. [14:31] <@Xho> As Riad turned around to move on, he noticed something in the distance. [14:32] <Hachi_> Hachi - Hmm, what do you see Riad? [14:33] <@Xho> As he looked closer, he noticed there were riders coming their way. And there were a lot of them. [14:33] <Imperios> Lekren - Only the Siarkon are that brutal. Them and the kob- well, a man of science like me knows that they are nothing but myths, so... nevermind. [14:33] <@Xho> Riad - Get off the horses. Now. [14:34] <Hachi_> Hachi - Huh? Why can't we stay on them? [14:34] <@Xho> Riad - Just get off them! [14:34] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch landed on a tree from a distance, watching. [14:34] <Hachi_> Hachi sighed and slumped off the Dzep. [14:34] <@Xho> Riad shot off the horse, and signalled the team to get behind a certain boulder nearby. [14:34] <Monet> Marcos climed off his horse after givig it a pat on the shoulder and headed for cover. [14:35] <Hachi_> Hachi grunted and grumpily walked towards the cover, not realizing that his dagger was still attached to the Dzep he had left. [14:36] <@Xho> Kinmo took cover behind the boulder as well. As the team waited, the ground began to shake as the riders got closer. They were indeed Shiarchon - 50 Legatus, and 1 Praetor. [14:36] <Monet> Archavior - <<you're going to leave me to those elves!!>> [14:36] <@Xho> All of them were mounted on Cataphractus horses. [14:36] <Hachi_> Hachi perked his ears upon hearing Archavior's voice and squeaked. [14:36] <Hachi_> Hachi - ...Oh shit! [14:37] <@Xho> Riad - Hachi. Do. Not. Move. [14:37] <Hachi_> Hachi - I need to get my dagger! [14:37] <Imperios> Lekren - Double-drat! [14:37] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch made vulture sounds, for any observes she was just a mundane bird. [14:37] <Hachi_> Hachi turned back and ran for the Dzep, with the dagger in his sight. If he was quick, he could grab it and get back behind cover. [14:38] <@Xho> The party of Shiarchon stopped right next to the abandoned Dzep. The Praetor went on, circling the horses, and examining what was on them. He noticed the dagger on Hachi's, and turned back to the Legatus. [14:38] <@Xho> The Dzep became very uneasy and one of them began to cower. [14:39] <@Xho> Riad - Kinmo, what do we do? [14:39] <Hachi_> Hachi - Shit...I can't let them have Archavior. [14:39] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Hope for the best. [14:40] <@Xho> The Praetor spoke to one of the Legatus, with his steed turned away from the Dzep. [14:41] <Hachi_> Hachi took the moment of opportunity and ran for the Dzep. The dagger glinted in the sunlight. [14:42] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch noticed Hachi and made loud squalking sounds to distract the Shiarchon. [14:42] <@Xho> (brb) [14:43] <OluapPlayer> (dam u) [14:44] <@Xho> (bak) [14:44] <@Xho> As most of the Legatus turned to find out where the squak came from, the Legatus speaking to the Praetor noticed Hachi and roared at him. [14:45] <Monet> Marcos - Damn that boy and his knife! [14:46] <Hachi_> Hachi grabbed Archavior just as he was seen and froze in terror. The Shiarchon, the Cataphractus and the entire group could see some liquid pour down Hachi's legs as he froze. [14:46] <@Xho> (ew) [14:46] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch cringed at the scene. [14:47] <@Xho> The Legatus began to laugh mockingly, but the Praetor did nothing. Instead, he moved closer to Hachi with his steed, and looked down with him with his faceless helmet. As he spoke, his voice was deep and distorted. [14:47] <@Xho> Praetor - And what is a Lagosi doing this far north of his home? [14:48] <Hachi_> Hachi - I-I...umm...I-I'm...p-part of the L-Legion, y-you know...from the K-Kame Island s-settlement. [14:48] <Hachi_> Hachi - I-I was t-transferred here... [14:49] <@Xho> Praetor - Hmph. There are no members of the Legion under your race. Speak truthfully or I shall cut you in half where you stand. [14:49] <@Xho> The Praetor drew his greatsword. [14:50] <Hachi_> Hachi - I was taking a walk! I-I was taking a walk...I-I was lost, you see. [14:50] <Imperios> Lekren - Blast... - Lekren whispered quietly - I will not consort with these diabolical aberrations of natural law... [14:50] <@Xho> The Praetor lowered his blade. [14:50] <Imperios> *We will not [14:50] <@Xho> Praetor - Lost? How does one wander this far from home? [14:51] <Monet> Marcos - Is he seriously trying to bluff his way past them? [14:51] <Hachi_> Hachi - I-I was o-on a fishing t-trip, then t-there was a storm...and n-now I'm trying to f-find the nearest river settlement. [14:52] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - <<I knew the kid would be the first to die on me.>> [14:53] <@Xho> Praetor - Hmph. Well, you are going the wrong way. There are no rivers in these parts. [14:53] <Imperios> Lekren - <<Mindless varlet...>> [14:53] <Hachi_> Hachi - I-Is there not? S-Silly me, I knew I s-should've t-taken a spare map. [14:54] <@Xho> The Praetor looked at Hachi for a few moments before a Legatus came up next to the Praetor, speaking to him. [14:55] <@Xho> The Praetor looked in the boulder's direction for a few moments, and then looked at Hachi again. From his Cataphractus, he threw to Hachi a metal-sheet scroll. [14:55] <Hachi_> Hachi took the scroll and landed on his rear, looking up towards the Praetor with an expression of awe and surprise. [14:56] <@Xho> Praetor - Find your way out of these parts. You should not be and are not welcome here. [14:57] <@Xho> The Praetor's steed turned away, with the Legatus following him. The Praetor kept looking at Hachi until he looked away. The Shiarchon then rode towards the east. [14:57] <Hachi_> Hachi let out a sigh of relief and smiled, standing up and brushing himself off. [14:57] <Hachi_> Hachi - Phew, for a moment there-- Why do I feel wet? [14:58] <@Xho> As the Shiarchon went out of view, Riad and Kinmorunddraver walked towards Hachi. [14:58] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - You're as disgusting as a mud-covered Smeever, rabbit-thing. [14:58] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - That was rather impressive. [14:59] <Hachi_> Hachi - Hehe, it's not the first time. Never did it with a Shiarchon, though. [14:59] <OluapPlayer> (http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Old_Colossal_One u shuld quote dis) [14:59] <@Xho> Riad - And a Praetor nonetheless. Praetors haven't been seen in these parts for almost 7,000 years. [15:00] <Hachi_> Hachi - How would you feel if I said this is the first time it worked? [15:00] <Monet> Marcos - This entire situation could ahvebeen avoided. [15:00] <@Xho> Riad looked astonished at Hachi. [15:01] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - What concerns me is that there was a Praetor and 50 Legatus. That rings alarm bells, telling me there's a Shiarchon militia nearby. [15:01] <@Xho> Riad - How big? [15:01] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - 50 Legatus? At least 500,000 Shiarchon. [15:01] <Hachi_> Hachi - Teehee, now, does anybody carry any cleaning gear and spare clothes? [15:02] <@Xho> Riad through Hachi a pack. [15:02] <@Xho> Riad - Change when we get to the entrance. [15:02] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - I could clean you with my magic. But I don't really like you. [15:03] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver went over to Hachi and offered his hand - he wanted the metal scroll. [15:04] <Hachi_> Hachi gave Kinmorunddraver the scroll happily and hugged his leg. [15:04] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver looked uneasy at Hachi and started wriggling his leg. [15:04] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Clean yourself first! [15:04] <Imperios> Lekren - Blast. Is there a way to evade them? [15:05] <OluapPlayer> (Hachi - JARATE) [15:05] <Hachi_> (Should've thrown a jar of piss at the Praetor) [15:05] <@Xho> Riad - The Praetor was heading west. So we have already evaded them. Where they're camped? I don't know, but it's not anywhere we're going. [15:05] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver put the scroll on his back, where more scrolls of different sizes also laid. [15:06] <@Xho> Riad - Also, what were those horses they were on? [15:07] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Cataphractus. Especially bred in Abyssus to have such size so Shiarchon can ride them. [15:07] <Monet> Marcos - Big elves big horses I guess. [15:07] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - I've seen some things born on Abyssus. Let's just say I never returned. [15:08] <Hachi_> Hachi - Big horses equals big private par-- [15:08] <Hachi_> Hachi then coughed. [15:08] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Just as well. Abyssus isn't a place for anyone. [15:08] <Imperios> Lekren - Ruffian. [15:08] <@Xho> Riad - Let's keep moving north. Further out of the Shiarchon's way. We're nearly there anyway. [15:08] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - They have these huge...ogre-like servants...with three eyes that spit fire. They're like huge walking muscle walls. [15:09] <Hachi_> Hachi - They sound...disturbing. [15:09] <Imperios> Lekren shievered. [15:09] <Imperios> Lekren - Disgusting. [15:09] <@Xho> The team kept moving north. The team was oddly quiet after their encounter with the Shiarchon. Some hours later, about an hour before nightfall, Kinmorunddraver took out the metal scroll and started reading it. [15:11] <@Xho> Riad went towards Kinmorunddraver and looked curious. [15:11] <@Xho> Riad - What's on that metal scroll? [15:11] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch kept flying above the ground, scouting the area. [15:12] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - It's a map. A map of Northeastern Koldenwelt. The glyph here on the map represents the Shiarchon's camp. You were right; they're off in the west. They seem to have based themselves on the north face of the Stormlands/ [15:13] <@Xho> Riad - I suppose a century of scouting does that to you. [15:13] <@Xho> Riad - So why did the Praetor give Hachi a scroll? [15:14] <Hachi_> Hachi - I said I was looking for a river route to get back home. [15:14] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Because he believed Hachi's story. [15:14] <Hachi_> (moov mine below) [15:14] <@Xho> Riad - You and I both know the Praetor didn't fall for that story. [15:14] <Monet> Marcos - either the Lagosi was as good as he says or the Praetor had some ulterior motive. [15:14] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver sighed. [15:14] <Imperios> Lekren - He was spared? ...by a Siarkon? [15:14] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - A trap? Maybe we'll meet him again then. I do wonder how Shiarchon meat tastes like. [15:15] <Imperios> Lekren - Blah! [15:15] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - I think the map was meant for us rather than Hachi. We'd better be on our guard once we enter Nalúnt's City. [15:15] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch sneezed salty water again. She began to fall into the ground and reverted back to her regular form. [15:15] <Hachi_> Hachi looked down and sighed sadly. [15:16] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - I wouldn't be disappointed in myself if I were you, Hachi. You survived an encounter with one of the highest ranking Shiarchon before the Patriarch himself. [15:16] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - When are we getting on the next body of water... [15:17] <Hachi_> Hachi - Ehh, it's not that, Kinmo... [15:17] <Hachi_> Hachi - I...Just wish the story I told was true rather than the...actual consequences of why I'm here. [15:17] <Monet> Marcos - Out here in the east water can be a are sight. [15:18] <Monet> rare* [15:18] <@Xho> As the team kept talking, the entrance to the Forgotten Lands became clear. It was a valley between two mountains which went above the clouds. At the valley's opening, what seemed to be a broken arch structure marked its passage. [15:18] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - I'm getting dehydrated. Me being dehydrated means I cannot used my magic... [15:19] <@Xho> The arch stretched around 2 kilometres at the base and was around 4 kilometres high. It was clearly dragon-made. [15:19] <Hachi_> Hachi - Dragons, they overcompensate for a lot, no offense Arch. [15:19] <Imperios> Lekren - Hm. Perhaps my potions could help you, madam? [15:19] <Imperios> Lekren offered the Sea Witch a vial of bubbly liquid. [15:19] <@Xho> Riad - It's not that they overcompensated. Nalúnt Earth-Scorcher was the largest dragon to have lived in the North. [15:19] <Imperios> Lekren - I'm a gentleman, after all. [15:19] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch took the vial and drank from it, feeling a little better. [15:20] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - Hmm. Thank you, Klaxxa. [15:20] <Monet> Marchavior - <<Overcompensation is proportional to one's size you know>> [15:20] <Imperios> Lekren - Bah! Size means nothing. [15:20] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Hm. I almost forgot how big the dragon was. His wings almost brushed the sides of the arch. [15:21] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - I could get as big as that arch if I was near the sea. [15:21] <@Xho> Riad - Where are we going to camp? [15:21] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - You're probably not going to like what i'm going to say. [15:22] <@Xho> Riad - Keep going... [15:22] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - On the arch stump. [15:22] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - I don't see what's so bad about that. [15:22] <Hachi_> Hachi - Why there? [15:22] <@Xho> Riad - Oh, I thought you were gonna say something worse. [15:23] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Well, the north is notorious for predators at night. The problem with that is that we have to abandon the Dzep, and climb the arch stump. [15:23] <@Xho> Riad - Couldn't you just move us up there? [15:23] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Well what's the fun in that? [15:23] <Monet> Marcos - Sounds like a plan. [15:24] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - I'm sure mister "doesn't sleep at night" wouldn't mind taking care of the predators. [15:24] <@Xho> Riad got off his Dzep, took his provisions from the back of it and slung them on his back. [15:25] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - You're lucky there's only one flying predator this far north. [15:25] <@Xho> Riad - I don't wanna know what it is really. [15:26] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - You live this far north, you should know. [15:26] <@Xho> Riad went quiet. [15:26] <Hachi_> Hachi - I bet the Sea Witch gets eaten first. [15:26] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - You mean I eat you for dinner. [15:27] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Enough. [15:27] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver grabbed Hachi, and in one leap, they landed on the arch's stump. [15:27] <Hachi_> Hachi - Wheee! [15:27] <OluapPlayer> (you might have guessed by now that the witch has no issues in eating people hur) [15:28] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver then returned as fast as he left. [15:28] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Who's next? [15:28] <Monet> Marcos - Hrmph, Riad and I happen to be the only ones who can't fly. [15:28] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch teleported herself to the stump. [15:29] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Hm. I suppose that'll be you next. [15:29] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver grabbed Marcos, finding it a bit more difficult, but managed to leap to the arch stump again. [15:30] <@Xho> Riad, realizing that Kinmorunddraver wasn't returning for him, climbed the arch stump. [15:30] <Monet> Marcos - Thanks. [15:30] <OluapPlayer> (troll) [15:31] <@Xho> Riad reached the top, with little effort. [15:31] <@Xho> Riad - I suppose you took into account that Néva can climb very well? [15:31] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Of course. [15:31] <Imperios> Lekren - I can fly. [15:31] <Imperios> Lekren swooped in the air. [15:32] <@Xho> Riad - Well, it's time to get a fire going. This close to the Forgotten lands and you might die of the cold overnight. [15:32] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - Get me wood and I can make fire. [15:32] <@Xho> (hohoho) [15:33] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - I thought you could make objects. [15:33] <OluapPlayer> (WULD U STAHP) [15:33] <Hachi_> (OHGOD) [15:33] <Hachi_> Hachi - Don't worry, I got this! Archavior, use fire breath! [15:33] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - Fine! Put all the work on the old lady. [15:33] <Monet> Archavior - <<AHEM. DAGGER!>> [15:33] <Hachi_> Hachi - Huh? Oh yeah, I forgot. [15:34] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch launched a bolt on the ground which caused a campfire to appear. [15:34] <OluapPlayer> She then sneezed salty water on Kinmorunddraver's general direction. [15:34] <Monet> Marcos - You complain but in honesty did you prepare for all this? [15:34] <Hachi_> Hachi - Next time we get to a Smeever center, they'll cure you of your paralysis, Arch! [15:35] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - Hah. Chances are that the Smeevers would steal your dagger and eat it. [15:35] <Monet> Archavior - Keep that up and I may consider eating you once I am free. [15:35] <@Xho> The sea water evaporated before it hit Kinmorunddraver. [15:36] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - If you don't mind, Witch. [15:36] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - Bleh. [15:36] <Hachi_> Hachi squeaked and placed Archavior down. [15:36] <Hachi_> Hachi - I-I'll let you rest for a bit. [15:36] <Monet> Archavior - If I was my old size i'd swallow you whole... [15:36] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver sat down next to the fire in a meditative position and moved his hands. The fire began to rise as he did it. [15:37] <Imperios> Lekren looked at the fire. [15:37] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch moved away from the group and morphed into a bat, staying in an upside down position. [15:38] <Imperios> Lekren - A rather crude way of harnessing the Source, I must say. [15:38] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Hm. So how far are we going into the Forgotten Lands tomorrow? [15:38] <@Xho> Riad - Far enough for us to call it a day. [15:38] <Monet> Marcos found a clear space and brushed the floor, sitting cross-legged and straightening his back. [15:39] <Hachi_> Hachi - All the way to Amarillo! [15:39] <@Xho> Riad set up a device of cooking [15:39] <@Xho> dum [15:39] <@Xho> Riad set up a device to cook food. [15:39] <OluapPlayer> (hur) [15:39] <Monet> ("device of cooking" dat legitamate D&D Item right there) [15:40] <@Xho> (o rly) [15:40] <Imperios> Lekren - Hm, hm... Looks exquisite. I have never tasted Neva cuisine... [15:40] <@Xho> Riad - We're all going to have to eat in order to keep our energies up. Except for the Sea Witch of course. [15:40] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - What? You letting me starve now? Hmpf. [15:40] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Hm. I haven't eaten in a fair while. [15:40] <Hachi_> Hachi - How about you eat *my* meat, Witch. [15:40] <@Xho> Riad - I was being sarcastic. [15:41] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver zapped Hachi with a bolt of source across the fire. [15:41] <@Xho> Kinmorunddraver - Watch your tongue. [15:41] <OluapPlayer> The Sea Witch pointed her hand at Hachi, which was surrounded in blood red electricity. [15:41] <OluapPlayer> Sea Witch - You want me to turn you inside out, you little pest?
