From Caelwiki

[21:33] <Necro> Uh-oh...

[21:33] * mori groans
[21:33] <Computer> I told you this is a near magic inert world
[21:33] <Clyde> Computer scan the area for any entities besides us.
[21:33] * Isper sighs
[21:33] <Computer> Your activity therefore violates local reality
[21:33] * TaloToecan shudders his eyes. "Damnation."
[21:33] <Eitak_Razal> I'm not doing magic.
[21:33] <Eitak_Razal> I'm just walking
[21:34] <Isper> computer, what are the predicted concequences for the paradox?
[21:34] <TaloToecan> "It matters little who is doing it, but rather that it is being done."
[21:34] <Rimblade> "I don't suppose this is just one enchanted evening?"
[21:34] <Computer> We are rapidly being passed by vehicles
[21:34] * Eitak_Razal points at Alex "No more form shifting!"
[21:34] <Computer> The average speed of which is somewhat faster then the speed of optical cognition
[21:35] <Necro> That means we haven't completely fouled things up
[21:35] <Eitak_Razal> So don't step out onto the road.
[21:35] * Xforce phases through the container and drifts to TaloToecan, bumping into him. A moment later, he extends a feeble probing toward him.
[21:35] <Xforce> *Do you have my SoulData?*
[21:36] <Isper> "Faster than optical cognition? Dreck thats fast."
[21:36] <Xforce> *I can not tell.*
[21:36] <Xforce> *Do I know you..?*
[21:36] * Xforce slowly begins to drift away again.
[21:36] <Necro> Wait... computer, how fast exactly are the vehicles moving? Are we talking Light speed?
[21:36] <Computer> This world also distinctly lacks noncorporeals
[21:36] <Computer> As I warned
[21:36] <Eitak_Razal> Non corporporeals?]
[21:36] <Computer> and since the Xforce refused my proferred materialization
[21:37] <Computer> He is a paradox as well
[21:37] <Eitak_Razal> As in ghost.
[21:37] * TaloToecan blinks softly. "Computer, corporealize the noncorporeal at a time when paradox of the shift is minimal."
[21:37] <Rimblade> "Mmm. And there's wingspan-lift ratios."
[21:37] <Alex> What are the lifeforms wearing?
[21:37] * XForce appears in a thud glowing breifly with intense light
[21:38] * Quits: Legault ( ManiacFrog@Caelestia-6209FE0B.bois.qwest.net ) (Exterminated: )
[21:38] * Xforce appears in slime form, but seems to be missing something... vital.
[21:38] <Isper> I wouldnt think light speed necro. The lack of bangs indicates the sound barrier probobly has not been broken.
[21:38] <mori> Faster than ocular cognition, though...
[21:38] <Computer> Transfering data from abjuration backtrace
[21:39] <Eitak_Razal> Even planes that mover faster than sound can be seen
[21:39] <Computer> Forcing Recoherence of Data
[21:39] <Computer> Forcing Shape alteration to true homid
[21:39] <mori> My point, Eitak.
[21:39] * Joins: Lyoko ( droideka_1@Caelestia-3B2D4EB4.trrhin.dsl-w.verizon.net)
[21:39] <Computer> Locking current form from origin interference
[21:40] * Joins: Legault ( SellSword@Caelestia-6209FE0B.bois.qwest.net)
[21:40] <Necro> Isper, they may have already accelerated past the Sound Barrier, meaning that they might have done so out of ear-shot... but that concerns me if they are moving at light speed... cause that defies some laws of physics if they are still moving in normal space...
[21:40] <Computer> They are moving faster then cognition of sight
[21:40] <Computer> but not of the actual travel of light
[21:41] <Rimblade> "So YOU could show us a picture of them, no?"
[21:41] <mori> That must mean they're pretty darn close to as fast as they can possibly get...
[21:41] <TaloToecan> "Not necessarily. Even biomechanical thought processes only process so fast."
[21:42] <Necro> Can you give us a numerical figure on there speed?
[21:42] <Clyde> "Get in the jar!"
[21:42] * Clyde looks at XForce.
[21:42] <TaloToecan> "Discussion of the transports nets us little gain, I would think."
[21:42] <Computer> Speed rate is
[21:43] * Xforce reasserts a human form, and his eyes flicker with life.
[21:43] <Necro> It lets us know just how technologically advanced they are compared with Terra
[21:43] <mori> A bit more, apparently.
[21:43] <Computer> 59 358 491.6 m / s
[21:43] * Xforce bubbles violently, bits of flesh writing as they are forced into a default mold.
[21:43] <Computer> A little less then 1/5 the speed of light
[21:44] * Xforce finishes up in a human form, gasping heavily
[21:44] <mori> Hi.
[21:44] <Necro> Hmmmm, reminds me of Impulse power... but that's beside the point, what exactly are we trying to do here anyways?
[21:44] <Legault> Xforce, you look better.
[21:44] <Rimblade> "I don't suppose you could determine propultion?"
[21:44] * Clyde tempted picks up a rock and tosses it out into the street.
[21:44] <TaloToecan> "Discern the location and source of the initial fracture."
[21:45] <Clyde> "Where'd it go?"
[21:45] <Necro> Right, so, can the Computer pin-point it now that we're here?
[21:45] <Computer> Deuterium-Tritium Fusion and Hydrogen Propulsion
[21:45] <Rimblade> "Cor!"
[21:46] * Xforce shakes his head. "I've felt better."
[21:46] * Xforce inspects himself, then catches sight of the former walkman grafted to his arm.
[21:46] <Rimblade> "I remember the fastest system of propulsion ever, of course. Monarch-driven motors."
[21:46] <Computer> Located
[21:46] <Xforce> "... lovely."
[21:46] * Necro whistles. "Very nice"
[21:46] <Computer> The location is a city 2.34 miles north east
[21:46] * Legault nods at Xforce, "Well yeah, you melted."
[21:46] <Fulcan> "Aye. Sorry about that.
[21:46] <Fulcan> "
[21:47] <Xforce> "I recall that. I also recall running into some errors while realigning my body. I'll fix myself later."
[21:47] <mori> I assume there's a better way of getting there than walking...
[21:47] <Xforce> "I'm in one piece, which is a lot better than a few seconds ago."
[21:47] <Necro> Is a form of teleportation exist on this planet?
[21:47] <Necro> *Does
[21:47] <Computer> Our entry in and of itself was not paradox inducing
[21:48] <TaloToecan> "Actually...for that matter...would telepathic scanning induce paradox?"
[21:48] <Computer> That suggests matter energy teleportation of some form is native
[21:48] <Necro> So that means we can just mass-transit there like how we got here
[21:48] <Rimblade> "Quantum?"
[21:48] <Computer> Telepathic scanning that is not detected would not induce paradox as it cannot be percieved
[21:48] <Rimblade> "I'd guess no colocation, more's the pity."
[21:49] * Arden closes his eyes
[21:49] * Arden shimmers
[21:49] * Fulcan glances at Arden.
[21:49] <Fulcan> "Hm?"
[21:49] * Arden opens his eyes
[21:49] * mori also glances at Arden.
[21:49] <Arden> I am not gaining any paradox from the effect
[21:49] <Arden> Colocation is rarely detectible
[21:49] <Arden> Twins exist
[21:50] <Arden> There are all sorts of plausible explanations for seeming colocation
[21:50] <Arden> And thus it can be explained away within concensus
[21:50] <Rimblade> "I suppose it'd really be a sort of 'Existential Analog' anyway. Cool-io."
[21:50] <Arden> This city is quite simmilar to terran construction
[21:50] <Arden> The skyscraper
[21:51] <mori> Does it resemble any one Terran city?
[21:51] <Arden> Its realtive building design is similiar but not identical to that of Mid to Late 20th century construction
[21:51] * Fulcan thinks ot himself, 'Please do not say Seattle Prime'
[21:51] <Arden> It however does nto directly match any Terran City itself
[21:51] * Clyde thinks to himself, 'Please dont say it...'
[21:51] <Arden> It could easily pass for an unamed new city
[21:51] <mori> Hm. Reference points would've been helpful...
[21:52] <Arden> Or one unfamilliar to you
[21:52] <Rimblade> "I guess we don't know anything about hierarchy, then."
[21:52] <Computer> We are in the south easter quadrisphere
[21:52] <Rimblade> "Nor what may be taboo."
[21:52] <mori> We don't need to know everything, though it'd be nice.
[21:52] <mori> Just enough to get to the source of the disturbance.
[21:53] <Rimblade> "Pffffft. Is. But I suppose you're right."
[21:53] <Computer> About 20 miles from the east pole
[21:53] <Eitak_Razal> for all we know, my red hair may get us in trouble...
[21:53] <Legault> East poll...?
[21:53] <Necro> The only way to know is to explore
[21:53] <Necro> You know, like North Pole, South Pole
[21:53] * Xforce shrugs. "I don't know anything about this world or about LORE. I'm coping. You can do the same."
[21:53] <Computer> Affirmative The planet has an alternating dipole
[21:54] <Computer> And hence a direct earth based modelling is impossible
[21:54] <mori> Strange...
[21:54] * Isper agrees with Necro "lets start walking...unless you can find a more desireable means of transport"
[21:54] <mori> At least to me.
[21:54] <Xforce> "... Computer, can you make a topographic map of our surroundings?"
[21:54] <Rimblade> "Then widdershins we stride?"
[21:54] <Necro> So that means the magnetic field fluctuates constantly then? or does this mean that this planet uses West Pole and East Pole like Terra uses North and South POle?
[21:55] * Joins: Raziel7803 (Raziel7803@Caelestia-5DD22444.ipt.aol.com)
[21:55] <Computer> No... or else I would simply call it north and south
[21:56] <Computer> as such terms are arbitrary
[21:56] <Computer> The geomagnetic pole of this planet is nonstationary
[21:56] <Computer> Suggesting that the core is motile
[21:56] <Necro> Interesting...
[21:56] <Alex> well lets go.
[21:56] <mori> I'm for that.
[21:57] <Selarep> Yeah.
[21:57] <Rimblade> "So... computer.... I don't suppose you'd care to suggest a course of action, eh?"
[21:57] <Isper> "indeed it is, but lets talk while we walk. It is 2 miles so there is plenty of time"
[21:57] <Computer> ?
[21:57] <Computer> You seem to want to go to the city
[21:57] <Raziel7803> kill everything is a good Idea
[21:57] <Computer> You have inquired about teleportation
[21:57] <Computer> I can affect such
[21:57] <Legault> ... Not really, whoever you are.
[21:57] <TaloToecan> "That would be appreciated, Computer."
[21:57] <Rimblade> "Well then, it looks like it's settled!"
[21:57] <Fulcan> "Kill everything is a HORRIBLE idea."
[21:57] <mori> Then let's not walk.
[21:58] <Isper> "That might be a better method"
[21:58] <Raziel7803> not really. in the dark, there are no shadows
[21:58] <Xforce> "Look, lets stop arguing."
[21:58] <Rimblade> "Yeah there are. You just can't see 'em."
[21:58] <Alex> Who the hell are you and why are you talking to us?
[21:58] * Fulcan frowns, but then tries to ignore the fool planning on killing everything, as he remembers his own methods of thought in the past.
[21:58] <Xforce> "We're in a place we know nothing about, here to do something we don't know."
[21:58] * TaloToecan eyes the newcomer with worrisome concern.
[21:58] <>Ambiance<> The world falls away and reappears inside a large vaulting room that seems to be a planetarium dome set above not seats but a vast library of some sort
[21:59] <Xforce> "It seems fair that whatever we are supposed to do should be obvious, or easy to come acro..."
[21:59] <Rimblade> "Wow! Are those BOOKS?"
[21:59] * Xforce blinks.
[21:59] <mori> Whoa...cool place.
[21:59] <Figure> You are the Caelestians? Or more accurately those most recently from Caelestia?
[21:59] <Rimblade> "How do they fit all the knowledge in books, anyway?"
[21:59] * Kazuma nods
[21:59] * mori whirls around
[21:59] <Xforce> "Well, there we go. God from a machine."
[21:59] * Necro re-adjusts to the sudden transport. "Odd, why would books exist on a planet that seems to have advance tech... how do you know who we are?"
[21:59] * Xforce laughs at his own joke.
[21:59] <Legault> Huh... Nargos would love this place.
[22:00] <Figure> Your arrival has been anticipated
[22:00] <Raziel7803> mori is here. that explains everything
[22:00] <Figure> Please follow me
[22:11] <Eitak_Razal> First tell us who you are.
[22:12] <Necro> General information would be nice, if you dont' mind
[22:12] * Eitak_Razal then adds, altogh she doesn't mean it. "Please"
[22:13] * Isper concents to follow "anticipated? by who?"
[22:13] <Fulcan> ( Stop. )
[22:13] <Fulcan> ( Falerin has NOT returned. )
[22:13] <Fulcan> ( And you will be notified when he has. )
[22:14] <Eitak_Razal> ((Yes he has))
[22:14] <Figure> Disingenousness suits you not Eitak Razal
[22:19] <Eitak_Razal> I don't even know what that really means.
[22:19] <Figure> Dishonesty
[22:19] <Figure> Subterfuge
[22:19] <Figure> Lying
[22:19] * Clyde looks at the figure, "Names are not always important."
[22:19] <TaloToecan> "We really aren't in a place to be demanding information, anyway."
[22:19] <Selarep> What do you mean she's lying?
[22:19] <Figure> She was
[22:20] <Selarep> About what?
[22:20] <Eitak_Razal> The please part.
[22:20] <Fulcan> "Basically what our guide was saying is that courtesy does not match Eitak."
[22:20] <Figure> You kind of do not belong here and are building paradox by the moment
[22:20] * Selarep chuckles.
[22:20] <Fulcan> "She is used to lying, dishonesty, and subterfuge."
[22:21] * mori grins. "Courtesy, eh?"
[22:21] <Necro> We're sorry, we came here to investigate a zeptofracture
[22:21] * TaloToecan sighs at the mention of building yet further paradox.
[22:21] <Figure> Your arrival was not unexpected tho and we can provide you with the same filter under which your computer confused currently operates
[22:22] <Rimblade> "Indeed? As you see fit, then, eh?"
[22:22] <Computer> Error. There does not appear to be any other living beings in this room
[22:22] * Quits: Legault (SellSword@Caelestia-6209FE0B.bois.qwest.net ) (Connection reset by peer )
[22:22] <Computer> Yet I am registering ... life
[22:22] <Necro> This is a hologram?
[22:22] <Rimblade> "Fascenating!"
[22:22] <Figure> What is life
[22:22] <Necro> With sentience?
[22:22] <mori> Interesting.
[22:23] <Figure> Life is... a state
[22:23] <Figure> we exist in a different one
[22:23] <Figure> But to say we are alive or not is relative
[22:23] <Xforce> "Fascinating."
[22:23] <Figure> At anyrate you are welcomed to Aloria none the less
[22:23] <TaloToecan> "Life is a perception?"
[22:24] <Necro> Is that the name of the Planet?
[22:24] * Xforce nods at the figure. "His words ring true, you know."
[22:24] <Eitak_Razal> Is Aloria the name of this world?
[22:24] <Figure> Existance Useless is a Perception
[22:24] <Rimblade> "We are not ungrateful for your courtesy, Milord."
[22:24] <Figure> Not just life
[22:24] <TaloToecan> "Talo-Toecan, if you please."
[22:24] <Figure> Being itself
[22:24] <Figure> Changed your mind have you?
[22:24] <Figure> Did falerin alter your opinion then
[22:24] <Figure> You are not actually on a prime material plane
[22:25] <TaloToecan> "After several various lectures, the psuedonym no longer has an apt fit anymore. And I would no longer wish to be constrained by it, either."
[22:25] <Figure> The Computer did not detect the shift because of the degree in which you had to desyncronize
[22:25] <Xforce> "A moment."
[22:25] <Figure> We mimic something of near Terran cosmology
[22:25] * Eitak_Razal frowns
[22:25] <Xforce> "Could you tell us what manner of existance you current ascribe yourselves?"
[22:25] <Figure> But in fact you exist in what Caelestia would term an outerplane
[22:25] <mori> Outerplane?
[22:26] <Rimblade> "Ohhh.... and yet an autodesignatory and warded continuum?"
[22:26] <Xforce> "I am interested not in the actual state of your reality, but in how you consider your own reality."
[22:26] <Isper> Like a metaplane?
[22:26] <Figure> For myself?
[22:26] <Figure> I consider my own reality to be the estate of the Lord of Light
[22:26] <Figure> Others view it as the seven heavens
[22:26] <Figure> Or some alternate expression there of
[22:27] <Figure> It is the place of the summoning
[22:27] <Rimblade> "Do you serve any prime material planes thereof, then?"
[22:27] * mori thinks to himself, "Lord of Light? What do they know of Lore here?"
[22:27] <Figure> Everything
[22:27] <Figure> He lives here
[22:27] <Figure> Among other places
[22:27] <Xforce> "!"
[22:27] * mori sighs. "Telepath."
[22:27] <Xforce> "Truly, the plane of summoning?"
[22:28] <Necro> That doesn't mean an elemental lord... it's similar to Terran monotheology
[22:28] <Xforce> "Do entities not actualize here, then?"
[22:28] <Figure> This is the same worldl on which the Brilhado race was born ages earlier
[22:28] * TaloToecan looks around for a place to sit and conceptualize the information properly.
[22:28] <Figure> before they descended to Lore
[22:28] * Eitak_Razal blinks
[22:28] <Xforce> ".... fascinating."
[22:28] <Eitak_Razal> WHAT?
[22:28] <Rimblade> "Fantastic!"
[22:28] <Figure> You heard me
[22:28] <mori> Fascinating indeed.
[22:28] <Isper> Amazing
[22:28] <Xforce> "Before, I would have given much for a chance to study this place."
[22:28] <Figure> I am dead
[22:28] <Eitak_Razal> So they aren't orginally from lore.
[22:28] <Figure> or not
[22:29] <Xforce> "It does not answer my question, though."
[22:29] <Figure> It really does not in fact matter
[22:29] <Xforce> "What do you think of your own existance?"
[22:29] <Figure> I am a servant of the court
[22:29] <Xforce> "Your response is important to me."
[22:29] <Fulcan> "The court of...?"
[22:29] <Xforce> "As odd as it may sound."
[22:29] <Figure> In this very chamber ages past
[22:29] <Figure> The Brilhado pleaded for the Light Lord to intervene on Lore
[22:29] <Figure> this is a place
[22:30] <Figure> and yet it is no place at all in the sense of the prime
[22:30] <Figure> It is an estate and a state
[22:30] <Eitak_Razal> ...
[22:30] <TaloToecan> "This...is a dream for many on Lore to experience."
[22:30] <Eitak_Razal> Your confuseing me.
[22:30] <Figure> Material beings exist here right along side....
[22:30] <Figure> The ressurected
[22:30] <Figure> How can I make it more clear to you
[22:30] * Figure pulls back his cloak
[22:31] <Giliara> For me
[22:31] <Giliara> This is the afterlife
[22:31] * Fulcan 's eyes widen, "Giliara?"
[22:31] <mori> Holy shizit!
[22:31] <Necro> That clears things up considerably then
[22:31] * Clyde looks shocked, "No it can't be."
[22:31] <Rimblade> "Aha! Simply terrific!"
[22:31] <Kazuma> Well then...
[22:31] * TaloToecan smiles at Giliara, one eye glistening with a forming tear. "Family."
[22:31] <Kazuma> good to see you again.
[22:31] <Selarep> Giliara?!
[22:32] <mori> A pleasure, Giliara.
[22:32] <Giliara> You seemed shocked?
[22:32] <Necro> An honor
[22:32] <Kazuma> A small bit
[22:32] <mori> Perhaps a little...
[22:32] <Selarep> Indeed.
[22:32] <Giliara> Even Terran Cosmology refers to people descending to the realms of the dead
[22:32] <Giliara> And it is a magically limited world
[22:32] <Selarep> If only Damsel, Lkeas, and Barrius were here to see this...
[22:32] <Giliara> Lore is ...
[22:33] <Giliara> Alive
[22:33] <Giliara> I am not a Ghost
[22:33] <Giliara> I am
[22:33] * TaloToecan points to his head. "They will see what I see. Family...this is a joyous occassion indeed!"
[22:33] <Giliara> What I am
[22:33] <Rimblade> "Aaaahhh."
[22:33] * mori sways. "Still a bit unnerving..."
[22:33] <Giliara> This is where the Reaper sent me
[22:33] <Necro> Very interesting
[22:33] * TaloToecan moves closer to Giliara, but draws just short, as if seeking permission.
[22:34] <Giliara> I shall never return to Lore
[22:34] <Giliara> My time on that world has ended
[22:34] <Eitak_Razal> ...
[22:34] <mori> I see.
[22:34] <Giliara> But as I was not uncreated
[22:34] <Giliara> I persist
[22:34] <Giliara> Why would I not
[22:34] <Giliara> Every lorian who has died has met the reaper
[22:34] <Xforce> "... I should wonder who you are."
[22:34] <mori> We've been so stupid...he's right...
[22:34] * Isper is unable to hide his excitement at seeing Giliara "Fasinating"
[22:34] <Selarep> Can you come back to the Abode?
[22:35] <Giliara> You must have realized those who were collected went somewhere else
[22:35] * Joins: Legault (SellSword@Caelestia-6209FE0B.bois.qwest.net )
[22:35] <mori> Is it the same for everyone?
[22:35] * Eitak_Razal looks angery.
[22:35] * Xforce makes no comment
[22:35] <Giliara> No
[22:35] <Eitak_Razal> ...
[22:35] <mori> As I thought...
[22:35] <Giliara> The destination of the dead lies with their deity
[22:36] <Rimblade> "Giliara, though it is a pleasure to see you post-Transition... I must wonder if, as we were anticipated, there is some action to be taken in regards to us."
[22:36] <Giliara> I am here because I lived and died as the Servant of the Lord of Light
[22:36] <Eitak_Razal> Then you should have sent us a signal!
[22:36] <Clyde> The Sound?
[22:36] <Giliara> I did
[22:36] <mori> He DID send us a signal!
[22:36] * TaloToecan nods to Rimblade. "He...is right. Even though it is amazing to see my other Uncle of that branch, I too wonder why."
[22:36] <mori> And a waysign!
[22:37] <Eitak_Razal> But it took THIS long!
[22:37] <Necro> We passed through 10 multiverses
[22:37] <Giliara> I am not permitted to intefere any further on lore
[22:37] <Giliara> My time there is done
[22:37] <Giliara> i have been reassigned
[22:37] <Giliara> I shall not be like Riona Shadowgale
[22:37] <Giliara> I will not be returning
[22:37] <mori> I am sorry, Giliara.
[22:37] <Giliara> My death was neccesary and it was my time
[22:37] <Giliara> I am not sorry
[22:38] * Eitak_Razal looks like someone has punched her in the stomache.
[22:38] * Fulcan nods in understanding grimly.
[22:38] <Giliara> I served faithfully and I have been rewarded accordingly
[22:38] * TaloToecan cries a single silent tear, but much better understands duty than he once did.
[22:38] <Giliara> I died willingly
[22:38] <Giliara> That is why I was not returned to begin with
[22:38] <Giliara> When I was slain... I was at peace
[22:38] <TaloToecan> "You will be missed, Uncle Giliara."
[22:38] <Eitak_Razal> Why die willingly?!
[22:38] <mori> And that is why I am sorry.
[22:39] * Necro shrugs, expieriencing stuff similar to this on a lesser scale from the Clan Wars
[22:39] <Legault> Your death really turned Diviaria around, it wasn't in vain.
[22:39] <Giliara> I know
[22:39] <Eitak_Razal> True, your death did allow Diviaria to join the Loreians, but thats not good enough.
[22:39] <Giliara> Though things are more complex then it appears
[22:39] <mori> You knew beforehand...?
[22:40] <Giliara> Beforehand... not exactly
[22:40] <Giliara> But I had foreshadowing of my death
[22:40] <Giliara> I even told you as much
[22:40] <Legault> Eitak, you must realize people die, you can't save them forever.
[22:40] * TaloToecan looks at Eitak. "Not good enough? What in the omniverse do you mean not good enough!?!"
[22:40] <Giliara> As I journeyed seeking the Orb of Creation
[22:40] <Giliara> I said numerous times that what you made of things mattered
[22:41] * Quits: Kazuma (romulus777@Wishes.He.Could.Change.His.Hostmask ) (Excess Flood )
[22:41] <Giliara> Immortality does not mean eternally persisting in the same state Eitak
[22:41] * Joins: Kazuma (romulus777@Caelestia-9D2BB48E.no.no.cox.net )
[22:42] <Giliara> You are angry that I should choose to follow my faith and my heart even in death rather then rebel and return to a world in which my natural time had coem to an end?
[22:42] <Giliara> That is senseless
[22:42] * Selarep nods.
[22:42] <mori> I understand your choice. I would probably choose differently, but I understand.
[22:42] <Giliara> If you were to choose differently Mori
[22:43] <Giliara> That would simply indicate that your time was not yet through
[22:43] * mori smiles. "Touche."
[22:43] <Giliara> My death was neccesity
[22:44] <Giliara> Of that you can be very certain
[22:44] <Necro> I'm curious... why does this place have high tech levels and no magic levels though, yet it's considered an afterlife of sorts?
[22:44] <Rimblade> "Perhaps. But you cannot ask us to desist in sorrow just because you are content."
[22:44] <Fulcan> "Giliara, did you feel that if you lived you could have done more good?"
[22:44] <Giliara> Your computer sees only a shade of things
[22:44] <Giliara> It is perceptually limited
[22:44] * mori looks at Rimblade. "Mourning is not all sorrow."
[22:44] * Xforce seems touched by Giliara's sentiment.
[22:44] <Giliara> Magic exists rather freely here actually
[22:44] <Xforce> "Giliara, a moment."
[22:44] <Eitak_Razal> Then it needs an upgrade
[22:44] <TaloToecan> "Loss, grieve, move on. It is a circle very hard to complete, but very at the core of things."
[22:44] <Xforce> "I posed a question to an apparition earlier."
[22:45] <Xforce> "It did not answer."
[22:45] <Xforce> "What do you think of your own existence?"
[22:45] * TaloToecan looks almost offended at Eitak.
[22:45] <Rimblade> "Silly Mori. Mourning is not for those who died, but those who mourn."
[22:45] <Giliara> I died as I lived
[22:45] <Xforce> "How do you - personally - feel about this afterlife?"
[22:45] <Giliara> With integrity
[22:46] <Giliara> I am satisfied with my existance
[22:46] <Giliara> and I am at peace with my choices
[22:46] <Giliara> This afterlife is but a new sort of life
[22:46] <Eitak_Razal> What would you know Rimblade. You were a Talking hilt until a the other day...
[22:46] <Giliara> The next adventure
[22:46] * Xforce nods. "You have no idea how relieved I am to hear that."
[22:46] <Giliara> here too I will eventually die
[22:46] <mori> And mourning is joy and sorrow in equal measure. Loss and acceptance. And hope. For both the dead and the living.
[22:46] <Giliara> Though that will come ages ang ages hence relative to lorian time
[22:46] * Xforce smiles thinly. "My existence here is, in a sense, my afterlife."
[22:46] <Giliara> When that happens who knows what lies through the next layer
[22:46] <Rimblade> "Those on the other side."
[22:47] <Xforce> "Its been a lot stranger than I expected it'll be."
[22:47] <Xforce> "But I like it."
[22:47] <TaloToecan> "I think, Eitak, that no one knows everything, nor can comprehend the vast majority outside their direct experiences. Including yourself."
[22:47] <Giliara> Strange is a word
[22:47] <Giliara> I prefer Fantastic
[22:47] <Giliara> The double meaning fits
[22:47] <Giliara> Rather nicely
[22:47] * Xforce laughs. "Indeed. It is fitting."
[22:47] <Rimblade> "Or it could be Terrific."
[22:47] <Rimblade> "Inspiring terror, and all."
[22:47] <Necro> I don't mean to sound rude, and I can't think of any other way to word this, so please pardon the bluntness and most likely short sigthedness of this question, but did you have any other purpose to contact us besides just wanting to chat? Not that it's a bad thing and all.
[22:47] <Xforce> "I wish I'd met you earlier, now."
[22:47] * TaloToecan sighs, shakes his head, and returns his gaze towards Giliara.
[22:48] * Clyde looks at Necro, "Thank you."

[22:48] <mori> Necro is right. Sentimentality aside, we should know.
[22:48] <Giliara> Yes...
