[15:51] >Ambiance<: An eerie keening wail begins in the distance and a chill wind begins to blow. The air is discolored slightly carrying with it a strange orange haze. The shade of this haze is distinctly and oddly familiar somehow
[15:51] Jeice: He appeared again shortly after my coronation. A Death Dragon and Nova had come to me saying they wished to serve me to try to at leas partially atone for their past wrongs.
[15:51] Jeice: Uh-oh, what is this?
[15:51] * Damsel is distracted from Jeice's story, looking about her with concern.
[15:51] * Jeice backs away from the haze.
[15:51] * Nicholas scratches his chin curiously.
[15:52] Useless: ((That is potentially very, very bad news...potentially.))
[15:52] *** Az|Mythbusting has joined #755.
[15:52] Jeice: ((You know you're organic now, right Useless?))
[15:52] *** Az|Mythbusting is now known as Azerkail.
[15:52] maieo: ((argh, i just sold my freedom for money))
[15:52] *** Mode change "+v Azerkail" for channel #755 by Tralin.
[15:53] *** Formerly_Somebody has joined #755.
[15:53] Useless: ((I'm discussing the full extent of the changes now, so yes, I'm aware of what happened))
[15:53] * Damsel stands carefully with Useless, stepping back along with Jeice from the odd orange wind.
[15:53] *** Alexander has signed off IRC (Vanished: ).
[15:53] Jeice: ((ah))
[15:53] Azerkail: Hola, Fieles de Verdad.
[15:53] jesterab: ((bang and its open! w00t))
[15:53] Jeice: Azerkail, we seem to have a bit of trouble...
[15:53] Damsel: Be wary, Azerkail.
[15:53] Azerkail: What trouble have we?
[15:53] * Damsel she nods towards an odd orange haze beginning to permiate the room.
[15:54] Formerly_Somebody: Hm. Falerin again?
[15:54] * Orange Mist congeals into a human form....
[15:54] Azerkail: I hope its not a gas attack.
[15:54] Formerly_Somebody: And what's this?
[15:54] Jeice: That... is interesting...
[15:54] Formerly_Somebody: Can anyone see a face on it?
[15:55] Azerkail: (Congeals is such a nasty word, lol).
[15:55] Nicholas: Curious.
[15:55] Azerkail: It looks like a human figure, but...
[15:55] * SplinterClaw slowly steps forward
[15:55] Jeice: No... it would not be Geno... He would enter in such a manner, though capable. Hm...
[15:55] * Damsel reguards the solidifying form with confusion and careful mistrust.
[15:55] * Formerly_Somebody decides to be daring and pokes the Orange Mist.
[15:56] Jeice: Plus, he prefers purple.
[15:56] Formerly_Somebody: Nothing bad happened.
[15:56] Azerkail: Didn't your mother ever tell you not to poke things you don't understand?
[15:56] * Fulcan appears. In his hands is a large orb glowing the same color of orange. His eyes continue to dance with. He also appears to have multiple sets of wings shaded in near burnt umbers. Much like a seraphim and nothing like Fulcan's previous manifestations
[15:56] Jeice: Who are you visitor?
[15:56] * Jeice gasps
[15:56] Formerly_Somebody: Crap.
[15:56] * Azerkail sighs.
[15:56] Formerly_Somebody: Is Alastor here?
[15:56] SplinterClaw: wait, what?
[15:56] * Nicholas shakes his head.
[15:56] * Lkeas: [work] is pulled away from her work by the sudden appearance of the figure in the room
[15:56] * Formerly_Somebody motions, and a silver infantry lance appears in his hand.
[15:56] *** You are now known as Lkeas.
[15:56] Formerly_Somebody: This won't end well.
[15:57] * Damsel backs away further before catching herself and stopping. She looks worridly from the figure in her arms to Lkeas, unsure of what to do.
[15:57] Formerly_Somebody: How much did The'galin boost his powers by, again?
[15:57] Fulcan: The master bids direct you to surrender.
[15:57] * Azerkail scrambles for a weapon, finding a rather large crossbow.
[15:57] Formerly_Somebody: No.
[15:57] SplinterClaw: I'll pass
[15:57] * Lkeas glances at Damsel before regarding Fulcan
[15:57] * Formerly_Somebody steps between Fulcan and Damsel.
[15:57] Fulcan: If you surrender now he will make your uncreation painless.
[15:57] * Nicholas assumes a defensive stance.
[15:57] Jeice: How do you still even exist slime?!
[15:57] * Formerly_Somebody laughs mirthlessly. "I don't think so."
[15:57] Fulcan: If you refuse each of you will will get his very personal attention.
[15:57] SplinterClaw: Asuming uncreation can be...
[15:58] Azerkail: This bolt between your eyes will be painless too.
[15:58] Nicholas: Sorry, that's not an option.
[15:58] * Damsel walks to Lkeas and gestures for her to take Useless for a moment.
[15:58] Formerly_Somebody: Not if I have anything to say about it!
[15:58] * Lkeas takes Useless carefully in her arms
[15:58] Fulcan: Well let it not be said that I failed to deliver the offer.
[15:58] * Formerly_Somebody lunges at Fulcan, lance extended.
[15:58] * LordBarrius sits up and regards the figure of Fulcan.
[15:58] Fulcan: Your fate is upon you.
[15:58] * Azerkail winds the crossbow and loads a tri tipped bolt.
[15:58] Formerly_Somebody: Hya!
[15:58] * Damsel looks to Fulcan as her staff flies across the room to her hand. "What does surrender entail? Is it equivalent to us giving up our souls?"
[15:58] * SplinterClaw claps hands and the earth becomes spikes: "Attack!"
[15:59] LordBarrius: Bah. Enough. Don't waste your energy.
[15:59] Nicholas: It's foolish to attack him.
[15:59] * maieo looks over at Barrius *
[15:59] Lkeas: our fate is as yet undecided, Fulcan.
[15:59] Azerkail: We usually don't do much to him, but I'd rather not take him without a weapon.
[15:59] LordBarrius: The`Galin can boost his powers beyond anything we can put up. Don't bother trying.
[16:00] * Formerly_Somebody trips, falls, and cracks his head hard on the floor.
[16:00] Azerkail: Not much of a surrender if we don't know the terms.
[16:00] Jeice: His power... it is very strong. I imagine Gold shield magic would be easily shattered by him.
[16:00] Nicholas: Surrender is never an option.
[16:00] SplinterClaw: "In the eyes of the devourer, surrender mean a sooner death"
[16:00] * Formerly_Somebody stands again, looking more than sheepish, and retreats to the back of the room.
[16:01] Jeice: I do not advice direct combat. I can't protect you.
[16:01] Lkeas: we were given a choice
[16:01] Azerkail: That's what Custard said, then he got overrun at his last stand.
[16:01] Lkeas: Falerin himself said that giving in is not an option
[16:01] * Damsel mutters under her breath, quoting a source from the past, "The correct choice is not the nobler."
[16:01] Azerkail: Nor is standing.
[16:01] Lkeas: stand down, truthseekers. fighting will not win either.
[16:01] Fulcan: And yet that is precisely what he did....
[16:01] * Lkeas narrows her eyes
[16:02] Lkeas: i do not believe you.
[16:02] * LordBarrius struggles to his feet, a smile on his face.
[16:02] Nicholas: Doubt it.
[16:02] Lkeas: Falerin will fight
[16:02] Fulcan: He actually order Leo to stab him. To go ahead and do it...
[16:02] Lkeas: he will overcome
[16:02] Fulcan: But if you do not believe me....
[16:02] Nicholas: You'll find that most people are aware of that fact.
[16:02] * Formerly_Somebody speaks around a copious nosebleed. "The swine lies."
[16:02] Fulcan: Ask Leo.....
[16:02] SplinterClaw: Liar!
[16:02] Lkeas: Leo made a choice
[16:02] Damsel: Fulcan, what are the terms of surrender?
[16:02] Nicholas: Leo's dead.
[16:03] Azerkail: Leo has left the building.
[16:03] Formerly_Somebody: Leo's life force was revoked by The'galin.
[16:03] Formerly_Somebody: He's gone.
[16:03] Fulcan: The Lord Giveth and the Lord Taketh Away Nicholas.....
[16:03] * LordBarrius starts laughing. "Ask Leo, you say?"
[16:03] Lkeas: The Creator giveth, you mean.
[16:03] SplinterClaw: what you say fulcan?
[16:03] Lkeas: your Master taketh away.
[16:03] * Fulcan vanishes into orange mist and then an odd blue mist takes its place.
[16:03] * Damsel places a comforting hand on LordBarrius' shoulder, meeting his eyes for a moment before returning her attention to the intruder.
[16:04] Azerkail: I'm partial to blue mist myself, over orange.
[16:04] Formerly_Somebody: Three guesses who comes out of this one...
[16:04] SplinterClaw: not again...
[16:04] * Nicholas lets his guard down.
[16:04] Nicholas: It's obvious.
[16:04] * LordBarrius keeps laughing.
[16:04] Nicholas: This is supposedly Leo.
[16:04] Formerly_Somebody: And now we see Leo, right?
[16:04] SplinterClaw: It could be an illusion made by Fulcan, stay sharp
[16:04] Shock: Leo?
[16:05] Shock: Where?
[16:05] * Formerly_Somebody points to the blue fog.
[16:05] * Damsel looks at LordBarrius again, now with concern that she might be hearing a hint of insanity in his laughter, and squeezes his shoulder firmly.
[16:05] * Lkeas remains standing defiantly, holding Useless protectively in her arms
[16:05] Formerly_Somebody: He's sure taking his own sweet time.
[16:05] Shock: OK...
[16:05] * Nicholas raises his guard.
[16:05] SplinterClaw: Remember what I said...
[16:06] Formerly_Somebody: And what are we to do if it IS an Illusion, SplinterClaw? Eh?
[16:06] SplinterClaw: Fight
[16:06] * Jeice 's flame begins to flare around him protectively.
[16:06] * Useless stretches languidly in Lkeas' arms, yawning softly as he shakes himself awake with a few obvious surprises greeting his awareness. Upon realizing that he is whole...and quite different...he shakes himself again. This time, the bland coloration of a more natural ferret seems to be flung off, though nothing actually leaves him, and his old dull gold and silver coloration restores itself. "How...intriguing this is..."
[16:06] Azerkail: Sure is taking a while.
[16:06] Formerly_Somebody: Oh, look. He's awake.
[16:06] * Lkeas looks down quickly as she feels movement in her arms, and smiles
[16:07] Lkeas: Talo-Toecan... are you quite alright?
[16:07] Formerly_Somebody: So, can he still talk?
[16:07] * Leo materializes
[16:07] * LordBarrius stops laughing and glances at Formerly and Splinter. "Illusions can kill too."
[16:07] Jeice: Hello Useless. Be wary little friend.
[16:07] Formerly_Somebody: Hello, there.
[16:07] Azerkail: Hello, Leo.
[16:07] Shock: Hello little ferret.
[16:07] Formerly_Somebody: It's been how long?
[16:07] * LordBarrius returns his gaze to Leo.
[16:07] * Lkeas looks back up as Leo appears
[16:07] Shock: Hey hi Leo!
[16:07] Shock: What brings you here...
[16:07] Useless: Of course, I would awaken to talk of yet more violence...*sigh*...have you not learned from the advice I continually recommend?
[16:07] Lkeas: ah, the black rabbit returns.
[16:07] * Damsel spins upon hearing Useless' voice, her joy quite apparent at his apparent healthy awakening. "Talo-Toecan...!"
[16:07] * Nicholas backs away from Leo, "Leo..."
[16:08] * SplinterClaw crosses arms...
[16:08] Shock: Who is the black rabbit?
[16:08] * maieo walks towards Lkeas *
[16:08] Azerkail: Apparently both sides are much too trigger happy to use diplomacy.
[16:08] * Lkeas hands Useless carefully back to Damsel
[16:08] Formerly_Somebody: Well, speak!
[16:08] Leo: Stay away from me Lkeas. If he asked me to kill you now I would laugh while doing it even if my sould did not want to. I am fully his vessel.
[16:08] Formerly_Somebody: Huh. And who's fault is that?
[16:08] SplinterClaw: Then the real Leo is dead
[16:08] Lkeas: indeed. Ryuusei mocked you calling you my lapdog... apparently you have a much more dangerous owner now...
[16:09] SplinterClaw: all that is left is a shell
[16:09] * Azerkail coughs.
[16:09] * Damsel steps carefully between Lkeas and Leo, her joy quickly dying as she recalls their current situation.
[16:09] * Lkeas maintains her distance
[16:09] * Nicholas positions himself next to Lkeas.
[16:09] Leo: Dead. Alive. Undead. There is no difference. I am what My Lord wills me to be. I am his. He absorbed me. He recreates me. He destroys me.
[16:10] Azerkail: Leo, do you still think you are a horrible person?
[16:10] Lkeas: Damsel... Nicholas, don't... one life is not worth the loss of so many...
[16:10] * Useless twitches his whiskers in warm relief. "Dear heart...but later, Damsel. Much has happened, and more continues to do so, it would appear." Proving himself capable, he leaps and perches on Damsel's shoulder.
[16:10] Shock: Yes, do you still hate yourself?
[16:10] Formerly_Somebody: And apparently he impedes your ability to talk...
[16:10] Leo: All of these things he can do. In the end he will do all of these things continue to happen and will happen eventually to all of you...
[16:10] Formerly_Somebody: No. I refuse to accept that.
[16:10] Azerkail: Assuming he gets the chance.
[16:10] * Nicholas shakes his head.
[16:10] Lkeas: so he would like to believe
[16:10] SplinterClaw: So...(eyes widen) uncreation IS worse than death
[16:10] Lkeas: so he would like us to believe.
[16:10] Formerly_Somebody: I will not make your mistake, foolish one.
[16:11] * Damsel narrows her eyes. "I too refuse to submit to such a fate."
[16:11] Azerkail: In your state, Leo, do you still think you are a horrible person?
[16:11] Leo: All races and worlds say that. And many refuse to submit. Yet entire multiverses have been destroyed with people just as strong as you within them. Your sole chance is the folly of his fondness...ARGH
[16:11] * Leo vanishes
[16:11] *** Elaith|Gas is now known as Daniel.
[16:11] *** Daniel is now known as Elaith.
[16:11] Lkeas: indeed...
[16:12] * Nicholas takes a deep breathe.
[16:12] Formerly_Somebody: His fondness...for what?
[16:12] * LordBarrius chuckles. "So very amusing."
[16:12] Shock: hmm
[16:12] Shock: darn it.
[16:12] Formerly_Somebody: He was pulled out, apparently.
[16:12] Azerkail: Someone should open a window or something, before more mist finds its way inside.
[16:12] * Damsel 's brow lines in thought. "Fondness...?"
[16:12] Nicholas: Strange.
[16:12] * Lkeas shakes her head
[16:12] Useless: So very interesting, I think...
[16:12] Shock: Mabye he was trying to help us just then...
[16:12] * Jeice mouths the word "bingo".
[16:12] SplinterClaw: ?
[16:12] * Formerly_Somebody glances at Azerkail. "You percieve this place as having windows?
[16:12] * maieo hugs Lkeas out of worry *
[16:12] Lkeas: he is still consumed by his love...
[16:13] Azerkail: (Windows XP. =P)
[16:13] Formerly_Somebody: Only when The'galin allows him the luxury, it would seem, Lkeas.
[16:13] Azerkail: Any thing that would keep that bloody mist.
[16:13] Azerkail: Out.
[16:13] Lkeas: i speak not of Leo, FS.
[16:13] LordBarrius: So very amusing indeed.
[16:13] * Elaith pulls some paper out of his backpack, sits in the corner facing the walls, and begins to write *
[16:13] Formerly_Somebody: Ah. You speak of The'galin's love for Lorithia.
[16:14] * Nicholas lowers his guard, and sits down at the table.
[16:14] * LordBarrius turns and walks back to his seat, still chuckling slightly.
[16:14] Azerkail: If a monster like The'Galin can have love.
[16:14] Nicholas: Curious.
[16:14] Shock: So we do need to get them back togeather, mabye i was right.
[16:14] * Useless nips Damsel's ear lightly and whispers a question, though he knows what the answer must be, "He did this for me, did he not?" His tone and cadence made the identity of the 'he' in question unmistakable between the two of them.
[16:14] Nicholas: Leo seemed to be helping you by uttering that last phrase.
[16:14] * Azerkail finds a nice armchair and leans the crossbow against it as he sits.
[16:14] * SplinterClaw tries to look at what elaith is writing
[16:14] Shock: Yes indeed.
[16:14] Shock: As I thought he did.
[16:14] Azerkail: All the communicants of The'Galin seem to want to help us.
[16:14] Shock: Heh.
[16:15] Lkeas: of course... they are still beings of creation
[16:15] * Formerly_Somebody slams his lance into the sheath on his back, muttering "Some help you were."
[16:15] Nicholas: The`Galin noticed... and... well withdrew him.
[16:15] Azerkail: In subtle subtly oh so subtle ways.
[16:15] * LordBarrius starts to shake in his seat.
[16:15] * Lkeas glances over at LordBarrius and walks to his side
[16:15] Formerly_Somebody: That, Azerkail, is because The'galin draws them in with lies.
[16:15] Shock: Can we free them if by some lucky twist of fate we won our battle with The'Galin?
[16:15] Lkeas: LB... what's wrong?
[16:15] Formerly_Somebody: When they see the truth, they rebel.
[16:15] * Jeice shoots an aggravated look at Azerkail, signaling his dislike for his words.
[16:15] Nicholas: ((I have no idea what's going on with Leo, so don't bother asking me.))
[16:15] * Damsel turns her attention to Useless, now that the immediately threatening presence is gone. Just as quietly she replies, "Yes he did, even at the expense of himself. After completing his administrations he collapsed and vanished. It seems that he cares for you as well."
[16:16] LordBarrius: Maybe I have....
[16:16] * LordBarrius chuckles.
[16:16] Lkeas: you have...?
[16:16] * maieo kneels next to Barrius' chair. "Is there anything I can do to help?" *
[16:16] * Azerkail catches Jeice's eyes and look away.
[16:16] * Nicholas turns his attention to Lkeas, "How are you feeling after that?"
[16:16] LordBarrius: Yes....
[16:16] * Useless twitches his whiskers, and a new gleam comes into his 'reborn' eyes. "I think I've found an uncle..."
[16:17] Elaith: SplinterClaw, I would stop gazing over my shoulder while I write.
[16:17] * Formerly_Somebody glances curiously at Useless.
[16:17] Bemo: Kraken is banned?
[16:17] SplinterClaw: alright
[16:17] * Elaith huddles closer to his paper, now covering all of the writing *
[16:17] * Damsel lightly smiles at Useless, her eyes glittering oddly. "I think you might have as well."
[16:17] *** Sprrie has signed off IRC (Ping timeout).
[16:17] Azerkail: What's this about uncles?
[16:17] * LordBarrius smiles. "Amusement...?"
[16:17] *** Black has joined #755.
[16:17] * Lkeas looks at Nicholas, her eyes fierce with determination
[16:18] Lkeas: Fulcan and Leo were sent to us because The'Galin knew they were once our friends
[16:18] Shock: Black? Thats a strange nick. Dont see many people named after shades.
[16:18] * LordBarrius frowns. "I....no. I haven't."
[16:18] Black: Black I'm black one one three four from Battleon forums!
[16:18] Lkeas: we will be tested on every level
[16:18] LordBarrius: I don't think....
[16:18] Azerkail: I never liked Fulcan, but I liked Leo. But that's beside the point.
[16:18] Formerly_Somebody: ((Ah! The colors!)
[16:18] Shock: uh..
[16:18] Shock: ((it hurts))
[16:19] Black: So catch me up here!
[16:19] Azerkail: The'Galin thinks he has us by using former Truth Faithful against us.
[16:19] SplinterClaw: Maybe (thinks) they are the only things the'galin has to throw at us...
[16:19] Shock: ((ow))
[16:19] Lkeas: he feels familiar faces will have more effect in convincing us to surrender
[16:19] LordBarrius: I see....I lose no matter what....
[16:19] Nicholas: ((Red on a black background doesn't really hurt.))
[16:19] >Ambiance<: After a gesture from Jeice, air swirls around Azerkail's ear. It sounds faintly like whispering, but only Azerkail could make out the words.
[16:19] SplinterClaw: ((blindingness!))
[16:19] * LordBarrius nods.
[16:19] Black: Ugh..why so fast..
[16:19] Lkeas: ((black, please change your text color to default))
[16:19] Black: okay...
[16:19] LordBarrius: I thought as much....
[16:19] * Damsel looks to LordBarrius, concerned, wondering who he is talking to.
[16:20] Black: But why did i have to?
[16:20] * Formerly_Somebody walks over to Barrius, and conjurs up the "Bomb Shelter" to use as a stool. "What concerns you?"
[16:20] Shock: ..
[16:20] Damsel: LordBarrius...
[16:20] maieo: ((I already have a headache))
[16:20] Shock: Because it hurts.
[16:20] Formerly_Somebody: ((Because it's distracting, Black.))
[16:20] Nicholas: Lkeas, you failed to answer my question.
[16:20] LordBarrius: I can't win....you will always win....
[16:20] Nicholas: I need to know your emotional state.
[16:20] Shock: And your named black, dont use red silly.
[16:20] Formerly_Somebody: ((And, please, OOC goes in parenthesis.))
[16:21] Lkeas: i will tell you this, Nicholas. his little ploy has not worked on me.
[16:21] Nicholas: Good.
[16:21] maieo: ((Shock never feels like it, so he doesn't.))
[16:21] Shock: My character is OOC, but ok...
[16:21] * LordBarrius grabs his head. "Give....up? But...."
[16:21] maieo: ((we know what he means))
[16:21] Lkeas: Falerin would not give in.
[16:21] * Useless thinks happily for a moment about that prospect, twining it carefully near that conduit which was kept open always in his mind, before rubbing his cheek against Damsel's lightly.
[16:21] Nicholas: And there's no need to call me by my full name. Just call me Nick, or Nicky.
[16:21] * Formerly_Somebody looks hard at Lkeas. "Has it not occured to you that that was the real Leo?"
[16:21] Azerkail: (Little Nicky! =P)
[16:21] Shock: Mabye we like Nicholas more.
[16:22] Lkeas: oh, i have no doubt, FS.
[16:22] * maieo hugs Lkeas once more *
[16:22] LordBarrius: There is no Hope, is there....?
[16:22] Formerly_Somebody: I find it incredible.
[16:22] Formerly_Somebody: Part of him was still there.
[16:22] * Lkeas looks hard at LordBarrius
[16:22] Shock: So Black, you wanted to be caught up on the saga no?
[16:22] Jeice: So many troubling incedents...
[16:22] SplinterClaw: Snap out of barrius
[16:22] Shock: I can help you on that.
[16:22] Lkeas: don't say that. there is always Hope
[16:22] * Damsel smiles distractedly at Useless' reaction, too caught up in the recent events.
[16:22] Nicholas: I thought Leo would of entered with a Purple haze, it was his favourite colour.
[16:22] Shock: ((hope i dont scare him away))
[16:23] Azerkail: So long there is faith, there is hope.
[16:23] Jeice: Barrius, I hope you have not... when you tried to... hm...
[16:23] Formerly_Somebody: I know not about Hope, but I can tell you that hope lasts as long as you say it does.
[16:23] * Damsel walks to LordBarrias, facing him and placing her hands upon his shoulders, urging him to look into her face. "There is always hope, as long as we work together. I promised to help you but you can not give up if you wish me to do so."
[16:23] * LordBarrius grabs his head. "No! They will not...."
[16:23] Nicholas: There's always hope, I choose to not have it however.
[16:24] Lkeas: what of your task, LordBarrius! you cannot hope to protect us by giving in
[16:24] Jeice: That is interesting Nicholas. Should the haze have been purple, i would truly have been cought off-guard. That is an ability of Geno, and purple is the color he likes to take on, as you all know from the color of his eyes and hair.

[16:24] * Formerly_Somebody is rapidly becoming alarmed by Barrius. He looks at Jeice. "Are you telepathic?"
[16:24] * Damsel shakes him gently. "LordBarrius, look at me. Look at me! Useless and I promised to help. Let us help you. Please, trust us."
[16:24] * Elaith smiles at SplinterClaw's disappearance, knowing he cannot share what he saw *
[16:25] * LordBarrius breaks into tears. "It's not my fault...."
[16:25] Useless: I do not know if Jeice is, but I very well am. However, I choose not to force my way into someone's mind to read their thoughts.
[16:25] * Nicholas dart his eyes at LordBarrius, "It is your fault."
[16:25] Formerly_Somebody: Jeice, I think someone is speaking telepathically to Barrius. Can you stop it?
[16:25] *** SplinterClaw has joined #755.
[16:25] Jeice: Me? No, not quite. I do have some methods though, but not full on telepathy.
[16:25] *** Azerkail has signed off IRC (Interred: Homework...).
[16:25] * Nicholas dart his eyes at LordBarrius, "But, you must let go of it."
[16:26] Nicholas: ((Oops, wrong paste.))
[16:26] * LordBarrius nods. "Yes, my fault....their suffering would be my fault...."
[16:26] * Damsel wraps her arms about LordBarrius in a protective hug. In his ear she makes sounds of comfort, repeating that she will help if he lets her.
[16:26] Jeice: Barrius, do not LISTEN!
[16:26] Lkeas: please LordBarrius... i have no power here anymore... and i have been given a vision... soon they will know the truth of my title... i need your help more than ever
[16:26] Jeice: Barrius, look at me!
[16:26] Shock: ((here it is black, time to get confuzzled))
[16:26] Nicholas: There are consequence of everyones actions.
[16:26] Shock: ((Diviara died to save the ferret, Useless, who Falerin threw agest a wall. Then Leo matirialized in front of us, leaveing us a clue. Also, Lkeas is now truely a profit, with visons and everything. And now the artifice ferret is no more, he is organic now.))
[16:26] * Elaith gets up, takes the paper he just wrote, and swallows it whole *
[16:26] Nicholas: They must be faced.
[16:26] * SplinterClaw punches barrius
[16:27] SplinterClaw: Why do you keep driving me to do stuff like this!
[16:27] Nicholas: However, another person can face the consequences for that person.
[16:27] * Formerly_Somebody tackles SplinterClaw.
[16:27] LordBarrius: Why....why do they have to suffer because of me?
[16:27] *** maieo is now known as maieo|dinner.
[16:27] Formerly_Somebody: Stop this foolishness!
[16:27] Useless: ((Assumptions, Shock...assumptions.))
[16:27] * SplinterClaw fights back
[16:27] Lkeas: we do NOT. it is a lie, if we suffer it is because of HIM, not you!
[16:27] Jeice: ((Diviara did not confirmed to have died.))
[16:27] * LordBarrius nods. "If I refuse....they suffer...."
[16:27] Jeice: Barrius, look at me NOW!
[16:28] * ZLOK yawns.
[16:28] Shock: ((i know))
[16:28] * Formerly_Somebody unstraps his lance and punches SplinterClaw with the butt, between his eyes.
[16:28] * Useless sighs, an air of distaste forming about him, as he probes to try and find out who might be talking with LordBarrius in such a manner.
[16:28] Shock: ((just thought it sounded more funny))
[16:28] Nicholas: Refuse.
[16:28] Shock: ((dieing for a ferret XD))
[16:28] Nicholas: Think of yourself!
[16:28] Damsel: Barrius, come back to us. Look at us. Block it out. We are here to help you, do not give in.
[16:28] Lkeas: look at what happened to Leo... he did not refuse, and yet there is still suffering, if you give in it will not help
[16:28] Nicholas: Think of the people here! They would miss you!
[16:28] * LordBarrius shakes his head. "N....no!"
[16:28] LordBarrius: Get out!
[16:28] * Formerly_Somebody gets off of SC's prone form and walks over to the group around Barrius.
[16:29] Jeice: Barrius, you don't listen to that voice at all.
[16:29] Damsel: Yes, good. Keep pushing him out Barrius. You can do it.
[16:29] Nicholas: But he must listen.
[16:29] Jeice: Don't you ever give in!
[16:29] * Formerly_Somebody grips Barrius by the collar and looks into his eyes. "Listen to my voice. Only my voice. Follow it out.
[16:29] Nicholas: He must deny it though.
[16:29] Nicholas: Refuse it, but listen.
[16:29] Black: what i miss?
[16:29] * Useless shivers terribly with what he finds from his probing.
[16:29] Jeice: What I meant was do not believe it. Do not accept it.
[16:30] * LordBarrius shakes his head. "No. I will not."
[16:30] Formerly_Somebody: I know not what you did, but only you can absolve yourself. You are as guilty as you think you are. And you are NOT guilty!
[16:30] * Damsel glances worridly at Useless, torn, but trusting the ferret to be strong.
[16:30] Black: ahhhh..this si so hard when i miss something!!
[16:30] Formerly_Somebody: ((Parenthesis, Black!))
[16:30] Nicholas: Indeed.
[16:30] * SplinterClaw twitches
[16:30] Black: yeah??
[16:30] LordBarrius: ....
[16:30] Nicholas: Leo had the same problem.
[16:30] Black: what?
[16:30] * LordBarrius frowns.
[16:30] Nicholas: Blamed himself for everything.
[16:31] LordBarrius: I will watch....
[16:31] Jeice: ((Meh... what a time for the dinner to be ready.))
[16:31] * Damsel smiles at Barrius, in hopeful relief. "Good, good. Keep going. I knew you could stay strong."
[16:31] * Lkeas frowns. "Watch?"
[16:31] * Elaith looks at everyone fighting, and makes an attempt to sneak out silently without being noticed. He is now half-way to the door *
[16:31] * SplinterClaw awakens
[16:31] Black: Okay........thsi si now like a text RPG dropping hints...cool i'll follow!
[16:31] * Formerly_Somebody looks at Elaith.
[16:31] SplinterClaw: wait, where are you going?
[16:32] Formerly_Somebody: And where are you sneaking off to?
[16:32] Jeice: ((Yes, the channel is now an in-character channel Black.))
[16:32] * Useless shudders and collapses ontop of Damsel's shoulder, writhing in pain with motions that threaten to jerk him off of that now precarious perch.
[16:32] SplinterClaw: and what was with all that coded stuff you were writing?
[16:32] Elaith: Hmmm? What coded stuff?
[16:32] * LordBarrius 's jaw drops.
[16:32] Black: hhmm...I'll just watch for a bit then..
[16:32] * Lkeas looks up at Damsel and Useless
[16:32] Jeice: Useless?
[16:32] LordBarrius: No....
[16:32] Lkeas: what...
[16:32] Jeice: Are you alright?
[16:32] * Formerly_Somebody lunges for the door, standing in fron of Elaith.
[16:32] * Lkeas looks quickly back to LordBarrius
[16:32] Elaith: And I wasn't sneaking anywhere. Just didn't wanna be in the way.
[16:32] SplinterClaw: The runes, and the text written bellow them
[16:32] Lkeas: LB, don't give in!
[16:32] * Nicholas focuses all of his attention on LordBarrius.
[16:33] * Damsel cries in astonishment at Useless, quickly moving to hold him in her arms. "Heart... heart, what is wrong?"
[16:33] * Elaith glares at SplinterClaw *
[16:33] SplinterClaw: Oro
[16:33] Lkeas: your decision will not save Useless
[16:33] Lkeas: do not make it
[16:33] Nicholas: If you give in, I'll die!
[16:33] * Useless emits a plaintitive wail as his form is manipulated to feel pain beyond pain.
[16:33] Nicholas: Lkeas will die!
[16:33] * Elaith dashes towards the door *
[16:33] Nicholas: Everyone in this room would die without your protection!
[16:33] * LordBarrius starts to cry. "It's my fault...."
[16:33] * SplinterClaw chases after her
[16:33] * Formerly_Somebody points his lance at Elaith. "Stop"
[16:33] Elaith: Narration: As he does, he melts.
[16:33] Lkeas: no...
[16:34] *** Elaith is now known as Daniel.
[16:34] Daniel: Couldn't resist.
[16:34] * Damsel holds him to her, tears rushing down her cheeks as she looks at LordBarrius. "Do not give in to him. I will not forgive you."
[16:34] Jeice: Useless, hold on. Hold on and try to get Barrius to stop!
[16:34] *** Mode change "+v Daniel" for channel #755 by Tralin.
[16:34] * LordBarrius looks at Useless. "I....I'm so sorry...."
[16:34] * Formerly_Somebody speaks an arcane word, and his lance flares into a sivler aura. "Stop, Elaith!"
[16:34] * Daniel laughs *
[16:34] Jeice: Barrius, this is not your fault in ANY WAY!
[16:34] Daniel: Elaith wasn't here, FS.
[16:34] * SplinterClaw tackles daneil
[16:34] LordBarrius: I'm so very sorry....
[16:35] * Daniel is taken to the ground, but doesn't stop laughing *
[16:35] Nicholas: There's no need to be sory.
[16:35] *** Black has signed off IRC (Vanished: Web IRC Disconnected).
[16:35] * Formerly_Somebody grunts and watches SC tackle Daniel.
[16:35] Nicholas: You did nothing wrong.
[16:35] Jeice: Barrius, listen to me, you will only cause more pain if you give in to it.
[16:35] Daniel: Narration: Daniel's body also melts away (the fake corpse).
[16:35] *** Alexander has joined #755.
[16:35] *** Mode change "+v Alexander" for channel #755 by Tralin.
[16:35] * Useless continues to writhe in pain, but it now takes on a decidedly different tone to it as he appears to froth in rage, his claws randomly striking out at the very person holding him so tenderly.
[16:35] *** Black1134 has joined #755.
[16:35] * Damsel growls at Barrius through her tears, anger in her voice. "Don't you dare give in."
[16:35] * LordBarrius nods. "She will never forgive me...."
[16:35] * Lkeas rushes over to damsel and tries to tear the ferret away from her
[16:35] * SplinterClaw panics when the body melts: ah! get it off!
[16:36] Lkeas: Damsel, be careful...
[16:36] Jeice: Barrius!!!
[16:36] Daniel: ((SplinterClaw, the fake corpse melted, not me.))
[16:36] * Damsel doesn't wince as tiny nails lacerate her clothing and the skin underneath, her deturmination focused fully on LordBarrius.
[16:36] *** Black1134 has signed off IRC (Vanished: Web IRC Disconnected).
[16:36] *** Black1134 has joined #755.
[16:36] Nicholas: You've taken an oathe to protect the people here, have you not?
[16:36] * Formerly_Somebody looks around, seeking Daniel.
[16:36] Nicholas: You would fail that oathe if I killed someone.
[16:36] Jeice: Barrius, you must not give in!!!
[16:36] Nicholas: I will if you give in.
[16:37] Daniel: ((Daniel is lying on the ground laughing after being tackled.))
[16:37] * Formerly_Somebody looks hard at Nicholas. "Shut up. That can only make it worse."
[16:37] * LordBarrius stares at Useless.
[16:37] * Lkeas twists away and stares at Nicholas
[16:37] Lkeas: murder will solve nothing!
[16:37] *** Black1134 has signed off IRC (Broken pipe).
[16:37] Nicholas: Who says I'm trying to solve anything?
[16:37] * Useless writhes about in a semi-controlled manner that results in him digging his teeth sharply into Damsel's arm, his claws still raking her with a fury that seems beyond the normally kind soul.
[16:37] SplinterClaw: can someone help me over here, laughing helpless people is never a good sign!
[16:37] * Formerly_Somebody draws a circle on the floor around the still laughing Daniel with his lance, a golden line following it's tip.
[16:37] * Daniel sticks his tongue out at FS *
[16:38] * LordBarrius frowns. "They know nothing?"
[16:38] Jeice: Barrius, remember Leo! Remember Leo!!!
[16:38] * Formerly_Somebody completes the pentacle and points at it, speaking a chain of words.
[16:38] SplinterClaw: uh oh...
[16:38] * Lkeas turns back to the ferret and tries to wrestle his jaw from Damsel's arm
[16:38] Nicholas: Yes, remember Biaxomus.
[16:38] Formerly_Somebody: Splinter, get up. Now.
[16:39] * Damsel 's breath hisses between teeth clenched tightly together as she feels her own blood flow down her arm. "Don't make his pain worthless. Do not give in. I know he would not wish you to."
[16:39] Lkeas: Useless... try to think of what you're doing...
[16:39] * SplinterClaw jumps out of the way
[16:39] Formerly_Somebody: Splinter, now!
[16:39] Daniel: Narration: Elaith reforms behind FS while he chants and runs for it while Daniel melts.
[16:40] SplinterClaw: how the...
[16:40] Lkeas: Damsel is the one who shared dreams with you, who cares for you...
[16:40] Nicholas: What would Leo Biaxomus think of you if you gave in?
[16:40] Daniel: Narration: Elaith vanishes out the door.
[16:40] * Useless is completely and totally mindless in appearance, as he struggles to maintain his painful bite and dig the scratches yet deeper...
[16:40] * LordBarrius nods. "I can save him....maybe...."
[16:40] * Formerly_Somebody turns on his heel and throws his lance like a javelin, hurling it straight at the small of Elaith's quickly receding back.
[16:40] Nicholas: That goes to both of you, Useless and Barrius.
[16:40] * Lkeas looks at the others
[16:40] Lkeas: someone help me get the ferret away from Damsel!
[16:40] Nicholas: Barrius, giving into him won't save anyone!
[16:40] SplinterClaw: okay
[16:40] * Lkeas grabs at Useless's front paws
[16:40] * Formerly_Somebody dashes to the door, looking for his lance and Elaith.
[16:40] * LordBarrius frowns. "No. He....wouldn't want this...."
[16:41] * Damsel audibly punctuates every word, her teeth still clamped tightly shut. "Do. Not. Give. In."
[16:41] * SplinterClaw grabs tail
[16:41] Daniel: Narration: A puddle smiles as Elaith is hit and disappears completely with no puddle.
[16:41] Nicholas: Biaxomus stabbed Falerin due to threat made upon Lkeas!
[16:41] Formerly_Somebody: Crud.
[16:41] Nicholas: Did The`Galin still go after her!?
[16:41] Nicholas: Yes, he did!
[16:41] Jeice: Crud, why didn't I think of it before?!
[16:41] * Lkeas pulls hard and takes a step back from Damsel attempting to take the ferret with her
[16:41] SplinterClaw: think of what
[16:41] * Daniel in puddle form, hides under the couch where he cannot be spotted, slowly disappearing into the brownie floor *
[16:41] SplinterClaw: ?
[16:41] * LordBarrius sighs. "No. I will....not give in."
[16:42] * Formerly_Somebody picks up his lance and returns to the pintacle to see if it still holds the puddle.
[16:42] LordBarrius: I'm sorry Useless....I'm so very sorry....
[16:42] >Ambiance<: Flame rises from Jeice's body and flies to Damsel's arm. The flame desperately heals Damsel's arm to minimise blood loss.
[16:42] *** Black has joined #755.
[16:42] * Formerly_Somebody gives up and returns to the group surrounding Barrius.
[16:43] *** Black has signed off IRC (Vanished: Web IRC Disconnected).
[16:43] * Damsel 's blood begins to stain her tunic in several places, spreading outward as her wounds are repeatedly torn open as new ones appear. She seems unaware of the pain or the effect, her eyes staring deturminedly into LordBarrius' own, her words constantly urging him to stand strong.
[16:43] Formerly_Somebody: Damsel, shouldn't you drop the darned ferret now?
[16:43] SplinterClaw: "what's...(pull) with this (pull) thing!?"
[16:43] *** jesterab is now known as randorf.
[16:43] LordBarrius: I....won't. I won't save him.
[16:44] Jeice: I would intensify the flame Damsel, but it would be difficult to keep it from burning Useless in the process.
[16:44] * Lkeas keeps her firm grip on Useless's front paws and tries to twist her arms in the way of the ferret's gnashing teeth
[16:44] * Formerly_Somebody makes a grab for the maddened ferret's back paws.
[16:44] Lkeas: try attacking me for a little while, you possessed thing, Damsel's had quite enough...
[16:44] Jeice: I'm sorry, but it takes a fair amount of concentration to have multiple controls on the flame at once.
[16:44] * Useless balks at causing further injury as the fire burns into the wounds, but stares up at Damsel's eyes with loathing...before turning his eyes at LordBarrius with tenfold such loathing.
[16:45] * Damsel doesn't respond at all to any voice, perhaps not even hearing them, other than LordBarrius. "Good," she urges insistently, "Good."
[16:45] * Nicholas rubs LordBarrius on the back, trying to comfort him.
[16:45] * LordBarrius cries anew. "I know....you hate me...."
[16:45] * Formerly_Somebody fumbles with the ferret's kicking paws, trying to get a hold on one.
[16:45] LordBarrius: I'm so sorry.
[16:46] SplinterClaw: (blinks) why?
[16:46] Nicholas: Barrius, don't blame yourself.
[16:46] Jeice: I wish I could have my flames heal faster, darn!
[16:46] Formerly_Somebody: No, Barrius. I should be sorry. I asked him to help you...
[16:46] LordBarrius: No!
[16:46] * Formerly_Somebody grunts, still trying to catch one of Useless's back paws.
[16:46] Jeice: Hang in there!
[16:47] Useless: "You..." Wrenching himself free of all holds with violent thrashing, he leaps forth at LordBarrius' face. "The HELL you are superior to ME! You flawed and broken MAN!" As he leaps, he brings both forepaws up to rend into his cheek.
[16:47] Formerly_Somebody: No!
[16:47] SplinterClaw: Ah!
[16:47] LordBarrius: Formerly_Somebody.
[16:47] * Damsel gasps in surprise, reaching out to grab the ferret in his leap, wishing to pull him away.
[16:47] * LordBarrius frowns. "I'm so sorry...."
[16:47] * Lkeas takes a sharp breath as her grip is lost on the raging animal
[16:47] Formerly_Somebody: Hold on! I'll get him!
[16:47] * Jeice uses this opportuntity to intensify the flame and close Damsel's wounds.
[16:47] * Formerly_Somebody dives after the mad ferret.
[16:48] * SplinterClaw sighs and bites useless's tail
[16:48] LordBarrius: Yes, he hates me for my selfishness.
[16:48] * Daniel escapes safely with Elaith *
[16:48] Lkeas: don't listen, LordBarrius, Useless is not himself..
[16:48] SplinterClaw: let go (cough) of him!
[16:48] * LordBarrius frowns. "Who is next...."
[16:48] Lkeas: you know he would never hurt his friends if he had his senses about him
[16:48] Formerly_Somebody: How do you catch the stupid thing?
[16:48] Nicholas: There's nothing I can do.
[16:48] * LordBarrius turns to SplinterClaw.
[16:48] SplinterClaw: ...what?
[16:48] * Damsel despite it's possible reprocussions mentally screams to Useless, hoping to contact something within him.
[16:49] LordBarrius: Him.
[16:49] Jeice: Barrius, that is not selfishness to attempt to aid many in expence to one, no matter if it was even me!
[16:49] Jeice: Pain is temporary!
[16:49] *** Sprrie has joined #755.
[16:49] * SplinterClaw spits out the tail
[16:49] *** Sprrie is now known as bluemanrocks.
[16:49] bluemanrocks: Grettings
[16:50] Jeice: ((brb, going to fix a plate of food.))
[16:50] Formerly_Somebody: Blueman, help!
[16:50] * LordBarrius frowns.
[16:50] bluemanrocks: ?
[16:50] * Useless screams in high-pitched fury at the pain...not of the bite, but rather at the injustice that LordBarrius is spared from his rending leap. "FOOLS! All of MAN are FOOLS!" Twisting about, he brings both foreclaws in a savage swipe across SplinterClaw's nose to free himself to attack LordBarrius freely.
[16:50] Formerly_Somebody: Useless's gone bersek!
[16:50] bluemanrocks: Hmm
[16:50] bluemanrocks: Give me ten minutes...
[16:50] * Formerly_Somebody reaches out and snatches Useless out of the air.
[16:50] Formerly_Somebody: Stupid little bugger...
[16:50] * LordBarrius nods. "I deserve it...."
[16:51] bluemanrocks: Never,omd
[16:51] bluemanrocks: *Nevermind
[16:51] Formerly_Somebody: I'll not hold him for long. You might want to move, Barrius...
[16:51] * SplinterClaw grabs side: what the...
[16:51] * Damsel tries to step in between Useless and all others, pleading with any who will listen, "Please, give him here. I will take responisbility. He is... important to me."
[16:51] Nicholas: ((Brb.))
[16:52] Formerly_Somebody: Damsel, speak with him!
[16:52] * bluemanrocks turns to Damsel. "Yes, you are right, but if you fail..."
[16:52] * Formerly_Somebody redoubles his grip on the struggling ferret.
[16:52] * SplinterClaw snaps teeth hard together, how.... what........
[16:52] SplinterClaw: What did you do- Ahhhh@
[16:52] * Damsel 's eyes begin tearing. "He won't respond to my mental pleas." She looks into his eyes, "Heart.. love... come back. Please, come back."
[16:53] Formerly_Somebody: He'll claw through my leather bracer soon. Someone move Barrius...
[16:53] * Lkeas glares at what seems like the ceiling and shouts "What good are visions if they cannot save my friends from this?!"
[16:53] * ZLOK sighs.
[16:53] SplinterClaw: Why does it hurt!
[16:53] * LordBarrius looks at Splinter. "It is my fault...."
[16:53] bluemanrocks: Useless...
[16:53] Formerly_Somebody: ((I think Useless is AFK. Lol.))
[16:54] * Nicholas appears to be unphased by all of this.
[16:54] * Damsel attempts to take Useless from Formerly_Somebody, intending to hold on to him, no matter how much damage he would inflict upon her.
[16:54] *** Lex is now known as Lex|Away.
[16:54] * SplinterClaw screams, not of pain but of anger
[16:54] * Formerly_Somebody dances back, out of Damsel's reach.
[16:54] Formerly_Somebody: No! He hates you for some reason. He'll hurt you...
[16:54] Falerin: I surely hope you are not speaking to me... I already told you. I can care less about any of you. I have given up on you. The`Galin can have you with my compliments.
[16:55] SplinterClaw: I hate PAIN!
[16:55] LordBarrius: I'm sorry.
[16:55] Jeice: Falerin! I have been a loyal friend to you, please help us now! We need your help! Falerin, I have asked of you no favors before ((in character)), and have remained believing in you! Please hear me now!
[16:55] Lkeas: why are you trying to hurt us with words, Falerin? if it wasn't you, then who was it?
[16:55] *** randorf is now known as jesterab.
[16:55] Damsel: Let me take him, please. If he hates me, then it is my fault. I would not allow LordBarrius to give in. It does not mean I care for him less.
[16:55] * Useless continues to writhe, spitting harshly at any and all who would interpose themselves between himself and LordBarrius. "Let go of me, you waste of flesh and bone. How I ever thought any of you could mean anything to me I'll never know." He glows slightly, warming up to just hot enough to force his release. "Burn in hell, the lot of you. You never listened to me anyway."
[16:55] Nicholas: I request your assistance, Falerin.
[16:55] Formerly_Somebody: Yeowch!
[16:56] * SplinterClaw eyes widen and stops moving, the pain knocking out his emotions and thoughts
[16:56] * Formerly_Somebody drops the hot ferret.
[16:56] * LordBarrius hangs his head. "Let him harm me. I deserve it."
[16:56] * Damsel attempts to grab him ignoring the heat and the pain.
[16:56] Lkeas: i have not given up on you, LoreMaster!
[16:56] * Formerly_Somebody draws his lance, aiming to pin Useless through a paw.
[16:56] LordBarrius: Another?
[16:56] Jeice: Burning eh? *goes to grab up the ferret*
[16:56] Formerly_Somebody: Stupid ferret....
[16:56] * LordBarrius glances around the room.
[16:56] Nicholas: I request the assistance of any Deity who is willing to help, not including The`Galin of course.
[16:56] * ZLOK sighs twice as much.
[16:56] * SplinterClaw breaths slowly, but in each breath there are words: don't give it back...
[16:57] Formerly_Somebody: Jeice, pick him up with your magic!
[16:57] ZLOK: I'm entirely too old for this..
[16:57] bluemanrocks: Heh
[16:57] * LordBarrius glances at Formerly_Somebody. "Him next."
[16:57] * Damsel glances at Formerly_Somebody. "Don't hurt him! It's not his fault."
[16:57] Jeice: I don't need magic to hold him, unless he has more tricks up his... fur.
[16:57] Formerly_Somebody: I won't kill him!
[16:57] bluemanrocks: ((Comic relief...))
[16:57] * SplinterClaw : he does not deserve it...
[16:57] Formerly_Somebody: I just need to stop him from moving!
[16:57] * LordBarrius nods. "Yes, him."
[16:57] *** jesterab is now known as omerta.
[16:57] ZLOK: Stomp on him, he'll stop moving.
[16:58] * bluemanrocks melts
[16:58] * Jeice picks up Useless and attempts to constrain him.
[16:58] * Useless raises his tail high, and his chin higher, dancing out of reach of any further pursuits to catch him. "Phah! You especially, you think I'd spend my life with you of all people? You are dirt, nay, less than dirt."
[16:58] SplinterClaw: I deserve it... that is why... I donot fear it...
[16:58] * bluemanrocks squirgles near Useless
[16:58] SplinterClaw: I only feel it
[16:58] * Formerly_Somebody cries out in unbearble pain.
[16:58] Formerly_Somebody: NO!
[16:58] Formerly_Somebody: Not again! Argh!
[16:58] * LordBarrius frowns.
[16:59] SplinterClaw: not live it as you chose to barrius...
[16:59] * Formerly_Somebody writhes on the floor, screaming to someone who's name you don't know.
[16:59] LordBarrius: I will have to keep picking until they all suffer....won't I?
[16:59] Formerly_Somebody: Gearugh!
[16:59] * Lkeas turns to the ferret
[16:59] * Damsel swallows with difficulty. "Please, you are not yourself. Talo-Toecan, please. I..." She breaks off, her emotions choaking off her words.
[16:59] SplinterClaw: I am a ghost
[16:59] Lkeas: listen to yourself, Talo-Toecan...
[17:00] Lkeas: look at what you're doing to Damsel... to me, to all of us...
[17:00] * bluemanrocks squirgles extremely close to the maddened ferret
[17:00] Nicholas: He hasn't touched me... yet.
[17:00] * Formerly_Somebody begins to convulse harder, spittle flying from his lips as his power to resist the intrusion upon his mind drains rappidly.
[17:00] * Useless glows softly, ancient magicks of protection ripping apart the magic Jeice is using to hold him. "You think you are high and mighty, a noble king...yet you lie and decieve. You are a traitor to your own people, and your magic can do nothing to me."
[17:00] * SplinterClaw crawls up to a kneeling position
[17:00] *** Black1134 has joined #755.
[17:00] SplinterClaw: and I won't be forgoten because of a mere handycap of pain
[17:00] * ZLOK rubs his eyes.
[17:01] *** Black1134 has signed off IRC (Vanished: Web IRC Disconnected).
[17:01] *** Cor-dem has joined #755.
[17:01] Formerly_Somebody: Gah! It...Arhg! The pain!
[17:01] Jeice: ((Jeice can heal remarkably well, and is immune to fire. He was not using magic.))
[17:01] * LordBarrius thinks. "Three victims....all because I'm so selfish....is it worth it?"
[17:01] * Lkeas whirls on LordBarrius
[17:01] Lkeas: you are not selfish...
[17:01] SplinterClaw: Your choice...
[17:01] Formerly_Somebody: B-b-bar...
[17:01] Cor-dem: The first message hass been sent
[17:02] bluemanrocks: ((Heh, heat is not fire))
[17:02] Nicholas: ((White text! It burns!))
[17:02] Useless: ((Then you yourself get shredded by the magicks =P))
[17:02] * Lkeas stops short
[17:02] Lkeas: the first message?
[17:02] Jeice: How can you say I betray my own people Useless? You know not of my world!
[17:02] * Nicholas darts his eyes at Barrius, "Never give in, you are not selfish."
[17:02] * Useless suddenly grows oddly quiet and still, a raging inferno climbing from him for mere moments before disappating clearly to reveal a collapsed ferret with extremely labored breathing.
[17:02] * Damsel 's teeth clench again, turning angrily to LordBarrius. "Don't you *dare* give in."
[17:02] * Formerly_Somebody stops convulsing, his ability to move robbed by the pain.
[17:03] * SplinterClaw speaks, but voice is too soft to here: Is that all you can do, commit pain on the flesh?
[17:03] Jeice: Useless! Are you alright?
[17:03] * bluemanrocks hesitates upon seeing the message before squirgling away from the ferret...
[17:03] * bluemanrocks reforms
[17:03] * SplinterClaw thinks: and pain on the mind?
[17:03] * LordBarrius nods.
[17:03] * Formerly_Somebody cries out in a voice that sounds as if his very sould is terring apart.
[17:03] *** Cor-dem has signed off IRC (Vanished: Web IRC Disconnected).
[17:03] * bluemanrocks turns to Formerly_Somebody
[17:03] * Damsel 's breath catches in the next moment as Useless falls limp. "Talo-Toecan..." She approaches Jeice, her arms extended pleadingly, "May I take him?"
[17:03] LordBarrius: Perhaps I wasn't nobler....
[17:04] * Jeice hands Useless over.
[17:04] * Lkeas nods to LordBarrius
[17:04] Jeice: Barrius, don't give in!
[17:04] * Formerly_Somebody writhes and falls still again, blood now lacing the spittle flying from his mouth.
[17:04] ZLOK: No, decidedly not a time of answers.
[17:04] * bluemanrocks rushes to Formerly_Somebody
[17:04] * Formerly_Somebody begins to vomit blood from his screams.
[17:04] Jeice: Tricks and manipulations Barrius, don't give in to them!
[17:04] SplinterClaw: Barrius! (stands)
[17:04] * LordBarrius hangs his head.
[17:05] * Damsel holds the small form to her tightly, then calming herself enough to grasp him more gently. "Heart, oh heart..."
[17:05] * Formerly_Somebody stops of a sudden. He lies deathly still.
[17:05] * bluemanrocks kneels by his side, ignoring the gore and whispers to him...
[17:05] Nicholas: This pain is nothing.
[17:05] SplinterClaw: Was that what you feared!?
[17:05] * Lkeas stares at Formerly Somebody in growing alarm
[17:05] Lkeas: is he...
[17:05] * LordBarrius laughs.
[17:05] * bluemanrocks checks his pulse
[17:05] ZLOK: It'd appear so.
[17:05] SplinterClaw: Then if it is, then you have no spirit!
[17:05] LordBarrius: I suppose I did lose.
[17:05] * LordBarrius shrugs.
[17:05] * Formerly_Somebody has a pulse, highly elevated, but slowly dropping to normal.
[17:06] Jeice: Barrius, tell us you refused... please have refused.
[17:06] * Damsel she turns pleading, tear stained eyes towards LordBarrius. "Please tell me you didn't relent? Please."
[17:06] * bluemanrocks looks at the others. "He'll be fine physically soon enough... mentally I can't say..."
[17:06] * Formerly_Somebody suddenly gasps. More blood comes out, but he doesn't convulse again. His chest rises and falls.
[17:06] * Lkeas looks up at LordBarrius as well. "Don't let it have all been for nothing"
[17:06] * LordBarrius glances at the others. "I didn't...."
[17:06] Falerin: How will you ever know.
[17:06] Falerin: He would claim to have not if ordered
[17:07] bluemanrocks: Indeed
[17:07] Falerin: You will not ever know.
[17:07] * Lkeas frowns
[17:07] * LordBarrius hangs his head. "I'm so sorry for your pain...."
[17:07] Lkeas: division...
[17:07] SplinterClaw: I tire of riddles Falerin
[17:07] bluemanrocks: Trust
[17:07] SplinterClaw: and truths masked with words
[17:07] * ZLOK shrugs.
[17:07] * Formerly_Somebody 's eyes close, then flutter open. His breathing is fast, but regular.
[17:07] Falerin: And I tire of your existance
[17:07] Falerin: The differecne is....
[17:07] bluemanrocks: You have power
[17:07] *** SplinterClaw has signed off IRC (Killed (Falerin (I can do something about my distastes))).
[17:07] Nicholas: This doesn't change a thing, atleast not for me.
[17:08] * Damsel walks over to LordBarrius and gives him a half-hug as best she can while still protecting the small figure in her arms. "I will trust you. Thank you for standing strong."
[17:08] * Formerly_Somebody struggles to sit up, all of his muscles cramped form his violent conulsions.
[17:08] * LordBarrius looks back up in tears. "I'm so sorry everyone....I'm so sorry."
[17:08] Falerin: Even as you all trusted me... no doubt...
[17:08] * Useless forces open one eye, looking at SplinterClaw as he fights to say in labored breathes, "Dear heart...he feels what I first felt...what is ours, between us, manipulated." Shuddering violently as the after-effects continue to wash over him, he slowly adds, "Forgive me...dear heart...for the pain..."
[17:08] Lkeas: and still do...
[17:09] Jeice: Falerin. I have not doubted you.
[17:09] * bluemanrocks turns to Damsel. "I suggest you keep Useless away from LordBarrius, just in case..."
[17:09] * Formerly_Somebody chokes out: "By the Pantheon. It stopped...it stopped..."
[17:09] Nicholas: I have no reason not to trust you.
[17:09] * bluemanrocks turns back to Formerly_Somebody helping him sit up...
[17:09] * Damsel shakes her head as she looks at Useless, a few tears falling upon his fur. "All is forgiven, heart. I know it was not your intent."
[17:09] Nicholas: Sure, you could of helped and you didn't, but you didn't force it upon anyone.
[17:10] * Formerly_Somebody 's eyes are haggared, and he gazes at Barrius with fear. "What did you do? WHAT DID YOU DO?"
[17:10] * LordBarrius looks at Formerly_Somebody. "I had to choose....one by one, I had to choose...." He begins to cry again.
[17:11] * Lkeas looks over at LordBarrius, concerned
[17:11] Lkeas: why are you not choosing anymore?
[17:11] Nicholas: You chose wrongly then.
[17:11] Nicholas: You should of selected me for this pain.
[17:11] LordBarrius: Because it's gone.
[17:11] * Formerly_Somebody looks at Barrius, venom and fear mingling in equal proportions. "What did I ever do to you? I should tear out your heart for that..."
[17:11] * bluemanrocks pulls up a chair and places Formerly_Somebody in it. He then goes over to LordBarrius...
[17:11] *** Cor-dem has joined #755.
[17:11] bluemanrocks: ...
[17:11] Jeice: I agree Nicholas. I should have been chosen as well.
[17:11] *** Stromy has joined #755.
[17:11] * LordBarrius nods at Formerly. "Go ahead."
[17:12] * Daniel walks in the room once more, not smiling and sees the Cor-Dem, and begins to grin *
[17:12] LordBarrius: I deserve no less.
[17:12] bluemanrocks: ((Grettings Stromy))
[17:12] Nicholas: You also hurt me, no with pain, but you hurt me by denying me from the experience.
[17:12] Cor-dem: watching down on you..
[17:12] Daniel: May I ask you a question, Cor-Dem?
[17:12] * Formerly_Somebody twitches as he attempts to rise, but his muscles are cramped down too tightly to allow it.
[17:12] Cor-dem: Yes..
[17:12] bluemanrocks: ...
[17:12] * Useless shivers as he admits, "I was chosen...for my meddling..."
[17:12] * Damsel straightens, drawing herself to her full height. "If such should happen again, to any in this room, I would be chosen. Despite what I may say during that time, I will say now in full control, that I would take the pain rather than see another give in."
[17:12] Cor-dem: yes you may.
[17:12] * Nicholas sighs.
[17:13] ZLOK: The more I see the more I question sanity.
[17:13] Useless: Though...LordBarrius did not do the choosing.
[17:13] Daniel: What do these mean? (Link: runeszg9.jpg
[17:13] * Formerly_Somebody looks at Damsel. "You know not what you ask..."
[17:13] Nicholas: My curiosity shall not be clenched.
[17:13] Formerly_Somebody: You cannot know...
[17:13] Formerly_Somebody: It is not mere pain. Something is there.
[17:13] * bluemanrocks pulls a pair of crutches and bandages from his pockets and hands them to Formerly_Somebody...
[17:13] Falerin: your stuborness will be repaid in injury
[17:13] * LordBarrius looks at Useless. "I'm so sorry...."
[17:13] Formerly_Somebody: Something is there, in your head, and it...
[17:13] Cor-dem: Daniel,You may ask. This is the forst of many of my future contacts
[17:14] * Damsel looks to Formerly_Somebody. "I believe you. However, I would prefer death than to be used as a pawn to condem another to worse than death.
[17:14] Nicholas: ((First*))
[17:14] ZLOK: Yeah, I assume it wil.
[17:14] Falerin: It already was once wasn't it prophet. You had a chance and blew it to hell.. but you still have not f***ing learned not to be a stuborn mule
[17:14] LordBarrius: I know you hate me.
[17:14] ZLOK: My stubborness rarely ever lead to anything else.
[17:14] Falerin: Well I shall teach you
[17:14] Falerin: Rest assured I shall teach you the hard way
[17:14] Cor-dem:
[17:14] Nicholas: Disturbing.
[17:14] *** Macer has joined #755.
[17:15] Useless: "Not...your fault." He pants heavily again, but is slowly returning to normal. "It was of...my choice...that led to such."
[17:15] * Lkeas scowls
[17:15] Lkeas: what do you intend to do?
[17:15] * Formerly_Somebody gestures, and his lance appears in his hand. Flexing his legs, he uses it as a crutch to stand. He hobbles over to Barrius.
[17:15] Daniel: Thank you Cor-Dem. May I request your name?
[17:15] Stromy: ((What is going on here?))
[17:15] Falerin: Oh.. todays demonstration will be but the begining
[17:15] Cor-dem: My name is..of no importance at this time
[17:15] Daniel: Ok.
[17:15] * Falerin leaves
[17:15] ZLOK: Oh, not my stubborness?
[17:15] ZLOK: Figures.
[17:15] bluemanrocks: ((I gave you crutches Formerly_Somebody))
[17:16] Nicholas: Black was Black@F494D90B.2CE140FB.7D554009.IP * 0 :Web Client User Cor-dem is Cor-dem@F494D90B.2CE140FB.7D554009.IP * Web Client User
[17:16] Cor-dem: All you need now is that I will visit occasionly.
[17:16] Nicholas: We have a second Black Rabbit.
[17:16] Daniel: So for the runic message I gave you, will I not be granted an answer to that yet either?
[17:16] Daniel: Or will it just appear in time?
[17:16] Nicholas: (())*
[17:16] * Formerly_Somebody looks hard at Barrius. He reaches out, and with all the strenght his still-weak muscles can muster, punches Barrius in the stomach.
[17:16] ZLOK: Nicholas whatever you think you know you may wish to revisit.
[17:16] Cor-dem: that. Is where i make my leave
[17:17] *** Cor-dem has signed off IRC (Vanished: Web IRC Disconnected).
[17:17] * LordBarrius accepts the blow, doubling over.
[17:17] Useless: Defy it, Formerly_Somebody...
[17:17] Lkeas: FS, what are you doing!
[17:17] * LordBarrius looks back up with a smile. "Again."
[17:17] Lkeas: you don't know how he was tested...
[17:17] Formerly_Somebody: WHAT. DID. YOU. LET. INTO. MY. HEAD!
[17:17] * bluemanrocks watches this happen and rushes over to the group
[17:17] Lkeas: would you have been so strong had the voice spoken to you...
[17:17] LordBarrius: Do it again. Do it over and over.
[17:17] LordBarrius: If it will make you feel better.
[17:17] Lkeas: LordBarrius did what he thought was right, he resisted
[17:18] Lkeas: would you have given in?
[17:18] ZLOK: Actually, I think I might've.
[17:18] * Formerly_Somebody spits on Barrius. "I will not give you the satisfaction of pathos, you slug."
[17:18] Useless: No...do not, FS...fight against the pain...defy the manipulation with your will and HOPE
[17:18] bluemanrocks: Division is the work of The'Galin
[17:18] ZLOK: However not in lack of will, and since it hasn't, and won't happen I'll never know.
[17:18] * LordBarrius laughs. "Very well."
[17:18] ZLOK: In chess the pawns go first.
[17:18] * Damsel stands in between LordBarrius and Formerly_Somebody. "You might as well punch me too. I was the one councilling him to fight against the force that led to his decision.
[17:19] LordBarrius: But if you desire to do so again, feel free.
[17:19] Formerly_Somebody: I will not hit you, nor cause you any pain. I will let you sit, and think on the fact that YOU ARE GUILTY.
[17:19] *** omerta has signed off IRC (Vaporized: ).
[17:19] ZLOK: And I would like to note that violence won't serve you any anwers.
[17:19] LordBarrius: I know.
[17:19] Useless: Do not let Evil's voice goad you to action, FS, no matter how terribly you feel inside.
[17:19] Nicholas: He isn't guilty.
[17:19] LordBarrius: I know. Your pain is my fault.
[17:19] Damsel: Guilty of defiance! And I am proud of it in both myself and in others!
[17:19] Nicholas: He's guilty of but one thing, not choosing me.
[17:19] *** Black has joined #755.
[17:20] ZLOK: Nicholas, get a grip.
[17:20] Jeice: Barrius, I agree with Nicholas, but for one difference. Not choosing me.
[17:20] ZLOK: Nothing is EVER about you.
[17:20] * Formerly_Somebody hobbles back to a chair and goes to sleep.
[17:20] ZLOK: You're one of the pawns in the game, like I.
[17:20] Nicholas: I'm aware.
[17:20] *** maieo|dinner is now known as maieo.
[17:20] ZLOK: So there is no need to comment on not being chosen.
[17:20] bluemanrocks: Grettings maieo
[17:20] Black: soooo.....what's happened?
[17:20] Useless: You both act as if *he* was the one to choose...
[17:20] maieo: ((hey, what'd I miss?))
[17:21] * LordBarrius laughs. "It's true what the voice said...."
[17:21] *** Macer has left #755.
[17:21] LordBarrius: I am completely crazy.
[17:21] ZLOK: If it happens, it happens.
[17:21] bluemanrocks: ((Other than you pretending to be cor-dem?))
[17:21] * LordBarrius laughs harder.
[17:21] Nicholas: Oh, but it was his choice. I actually wish for the pain, I'm too curious about it.
[17:21] Black: Yeah..you saw through that..
[17:21] bluemanrocks: ((Not you maieo))
[17:21] Black: I AM ploting something though
[17:21] Useless: It was not, Nicholas...
[17:21] maieo: ((no kidding. why would she be cor-dem when she isn't even paying attention.))
[17:22] Black: And i'll drop hints
[17:22] ZLOK: Sounds like fun, but if it doesn't involve rabbits and chocolate milk I won't have any of it.
[17:22] * Lkeas frowns
[17:22] Useless: Evil tends not to give a choice, in the matter
[17:22] Damsel: Barrius, please tell us what was said to you.
[17:22] Lkeas: a second, already...
[17:22] LordBarrius: Only someone who is completely insane would sit there and pick his enemy's targets one by one....
[17:22] * Daniel mutters something about slicing *
[17:22] Falerin: But it did.. as it WANTED him to suffer the selection and the guilt that entailed. and it honored his choices too
[17:22] ZLOK: Yeah, we're all mad here.
[17:23] ZLOK: Or we wouldn't have come here.
[17:23] *** Black has signed off IRC (Vanished: Web IRC Disconnected).
[17:23] * LordBarrius laughs. "That it did."
[17:23] Useless: It, Falerin? Surely you won't continue that charade...
[17:23] ZLOK: I'm just waiting for the "it's all a dream" theory.
[17:23] Falerin: Well fine then.. I....
[17:23] Falerin: I gave him the choice
[17:24] bluemanrocks: ((Hmm, what if it's all a dream?))
[17:24] Falerin: And I honored his choice too
[17:24] Falerin: Happy now
[17:24] Jeice: ((Falerin, was that "Black" character doing a sort of impersonation, or was he an actual character?))
[17:24] Useless: Yes, *you*, for you are the God of Evil.
[17:24] bluemanrocks: Not particularly
[17:24] ZLOK: The bishop moves diagonally, as Falerin moves his ways.
[17:24] Useless: Evil is as Evil must do, Falerin.
[17:24] Jeice: Falerin, why?
[17:24] * Damsel 's eyes turn hard, her question but a single word. "Why?"
[17:25] * Lkeas turns to Jeice and Damsel
[17:25] Jeice: What were you trying to get Barrius to do?
[17:25] * LordBarrius lays back in his chair, still laughing. "It barely took any effort at all to pick at my feeble mind, did it?"
[17:25] Lkeas: a test, like David Viara's?
[17:25] ZLOK: No, I am quite sure the question is not simply "why" but more importantly "why now?"
[17:25] bluemanrocks: Oh, "why" is a terrible question to ask
[17:25] bluemanrocks: ((Beat me to it...)
[17:25] ZLOK: It is, isn't it?
[17:25] Useless: Not every blessing can come without a curse or trial. Not every lesson can be learned by a guiding hand. Not all information can come without a price.
[17:25] bluemanrocks: )
[17:26] bluemanrocks: Falerin, have you ever lied to us?
[17:26] * Nicholas appears to be frustrated.
[17:26] *** Black1134 has joined #755.
[17:26] LordBarrius: Ah, at least I know now how weak I am.
[17:26] ZLOK: The god of evil speaks only thruths?
[17:26] Jeice: Falerin, I wait for your answer.
[17:26] Lkeas: weak, LordBarrius?
[17:26] ZLOK: You're clearly quite more insane than I first assumed.
[17:27] * Damsel looks at Useless, digesting his words before turning back to Falerin. "So did we pay the price you set?"
[17:27] LordBarrius: Very, Archivist.
[17:27] *** Black1134 has signed off IRC (Vanished: Web IRC Disconnected).
[17:27] * Nicholas chuckles.
[17:27] *** Black1134 has joined #755.
[17:27] Nicholas: You aren't weak.
[17:27] bluemanrocks: Who me? I was just asking, to see what his answer would be...
[17:27] Falerin: Daily
[17:27] bluemanrocks: ((Impulsive remember?))
[17:27] Falerin: You are patehtic wastes of life
[17:28] * ZLOK chuckles.
[17:28] Falerin: So of course I lied
[17:28] Useless: Falerin...why use *that* on LordBarrius? Must evil resort to *those* measures in particular?
[17:28] * LordBarrius chuckles. "Yes, I am."
[17:28] * Lkeas flops down on the couch, exhausted
[17:28] Falerin: Must we... no... but why not when we can... sadism is after all incredibly fucking fun
[17:28] bluemanrocks: Depending on what you mean by waste, but I see (that's probably not true) your point
[17:28] * LordBarrius nods.
[17:28] ZLOK: Why would you even try to comprehend evil?
[17:29] *** Black1134 has signed off IRC (Vanished: Web IRC Disconnected).
[17:29] *** xaxtoo has signed off IRC (Ping timeout).
[17:29] Jeice: Falerin, was that just for fun, or is there another purpose you are willing to share?
[17:29] ZLOK: We are all pawns in a great game of chess.
[17:29] Nicholas: Indeed.
[17:29] LordBarrius: I'm sure it was very fun for Falerin.
[17:29] ZLOK: Another purpose?
[17:29] ZLOK: Are you daft?
[17:29] LordBarrius: Tossing my mind around like a ragdoll....
[17:30] ZLOK: There are multiple.
[17:30] Useless: Even you used to find such repulsive...
[17:30] Falerin: I am and have always been the God of Evil. Have you considered the posibility that I may have been planning all of this including my apparent fall to Leo from the beginging for my own amsuement and for your ultimate torment
[17:30] Shock: Wait Falerin lied?
[17:30] ZLOK: I would assume the majormost one would be because he decided to. I do not presume to understand evil.
[17:30] Falerin: Of course you have not...
[17:30] Shock: Dosent suprise me
[17:30] Shock: Not at all.
[17:30] Falerin: Because you are twits
[17:30] * Damsel faces Falerin, clearly defiant as she squares her sholders, still holding Useless to her.
[17:30] * Lkeas shakes her head, bewildered
[17:30] Lkeas: insults again.
[17:30] Daniel: Is the possibility the reality?
[17:30] Useless: The problem with Evil, is that it still needs some form of Creation to exist.
[17:30] Shock: XD
[17:31] Nicholas: An interesting possibility.
[17:31] ZLOK: Compared to gods, or concepts I would believe I have no other option but to agree.
[17:31] Shock: And yes Falerin, I do often feel I am wasteing my time here. Its still fun.
[17:31] Jeice: You have no care about The'Galin Falerin? Surely not all of this was for pleasure?
[17:31] ZLOK: My question is only that without us twits, would there be any gods and concepts?
[17:32] Shock: Early april fools! My Favorite!
[17:32] ZLOK: Can you really be a god without a certain status over lesser beings?
[17:32] * Formerly_Somebody awakes with a gasp and a jerk, flying out of his chair.
[17:32] Falerin: Evil can make deals with evil. And powerful evil gods can help other powerful evil entities effectively destroy the will of their people. how might my betrayal sync with you.... I am not one of Lorithia's creations. She has no iterest in me. I do not compete with him and Caelestia is quite unique in that because of the far point we remain basically Xenophobes
[17:33] Formerly_Somebody: Where is Barrius?
[17:33] ZLOK: Would you be a god if you were completely alone?
[17:33] Daniel: So in theory, disregarding all your information may be the wisest choice.
[17:33] Falerin: So he has pretty minimal interest. Especially since I was willing to further his plans
[17:33] Useless: Evil is as susceptible to Uncreation as any other.
[17:33] Lkeas: i see...
[17:33] Falerin: he leaves caelestia alone for the millenia it takes for him to get rid of the rest
[17:33] * LordBarrius stands, walking up to Formerly until he is directly in his face. "Here I am."
[17:33] Falerin: and in the end.... we face of again fair and square
[17:34] Lkeas: so is it just a game with you then? you help us or hurt as as amuses you depending on the day?
[17:34] Daniel: Why not eliminate him early?
[17:34] Jeice: So you did this to postpone the fight instead of taking care of him now?
[17:34] Falerin: Either way I gain effectively infinite repreive for a world that matters
[17:34] Useless: A drop in the bucket, and you *will* be the weaker for it, no matter what you think.
[17:34] Falerin: And the only cost is worlds that do not....
[17:34] LordBarrius: You want to hurt me, don't you? Don't deny it. Go ahead. Swing away for all it's worth.
[17:34] Lkeas: and we do not... matter to you...
[17:34] Falerin: And the pathetic people therein
[17:34] Daniel: Won't eliminating The`Galin early spare you effort later?
[17:34] Useless: Hardly, there is no reprieve for those in his path.
[17:34] ZLOK: Liar.
[17:34] * Formerly_Somebody glares at Barrius, his gaze holding plenty of anger but no venom. "I hold to my words. You ARE guilty. But...I forgive you. I do not absolve you for your involvement. But I forgive you."
[17:34] Falerin: So I maipulate them like a violinist playing the violin
[17:34] Shock: XD
[17:35] Falerin: and boy do they sing...
[17:35] * LordBarrius chuckles.
[17:35] Formerly_Somebody: That having been said...
[17:35] * Formerly_Somebody decks Barrius.
[17:35] Daniel: Won't eliminating The`Galin early spare you effort later?
[17:35] * LordBarrius takes the blow, laughing all the way through it.
[17:35] Damsel: Then one must not help but wonder why you would take steps to remove such a powerful tool as a large pocket of creation from his path if you have an understanding with him.
[17:35] ZLOK: I would assume, that as a god you would be able to force me to do all sorts of things.
[17:35] Falerin: I can set you against each other at will
[17:35] * Lkeas frowns
[17:35] Shock: It really dident seem right you know. I could kinda tell something was "off"
[17:35] Falerin: Drive you mad
[17:35] ZLOK: Could you force me to agree?
[17:35] Falerin: Its all an amusing game to me....
[17:35] ZLOK: Not just give my consensus, but actually agree.
[17:35] Shock: But man was it a fun senario
[17:35] Shock: mee kants speel.
[17:36] ZLOK: Could you force me to listen?
[17:36] ZLOK: Or to give up all choices?
[17:36] LordBarrius: Any more venom for me?
[17:36] Lkeas: i can see maintaining trust in a god of evil will be quite a test indeed...
[17:36] Falerin: Yes. but you are beneath contempt. SO I shall not bother. Of course you will then feel confidence that I lack the ability. But since your being deluded aids me ultimately thats fine.
[17:36] Daniel: The`Galin think the same way you do, though. Why would he not come after the world that matters later?
[17:36] * Formerly_Somebody laughs mirthlessly at Barrius. "Not right now. Maybe later, when I've had time to calm."
[17:36] Falerin: I hardly could care less what you think or believe ZLOK..... you are an inconsequent
[17:37] ZLOK: What makes you think uncreation thinks at all?
[17:37] * LordBarrius smiles. "Very well. Let me know when you are ready to harm me more."
[17:37] ZLOK: Yeah, I know.
[17:37] ZLOK: I am the pawn, your are the rook.
[17:37] ZLOK: Uncreation the black queen.
[17:37] * Damsel 's eyes glitter oddly. "So you refuse to answer the question reguarding your actions that appear to conflict with your current claims?"
[17:38] * Formerly_Somebody offers Barrius a hand up.
[17:38] * LordBarrius resumes his seat. He coughs a couple of times, and at least once blood comes out with the spit. Regardless, he continues to laugh.
[17:38] ZLOK: All there is for me is to provide an advantage to more important pieces, and if I'm lucky enough to survive, I may become an important piece myself.
[17:38] Falerin: No.. Uncreation is the ROOK. I am the Queen. The`Galin is a pawn who has been queened too...
[17:38] Useless: Uncreation the player that tosses the board aside, methinks...
[17:38] * ZLOK shakes his head.
[17:38] Shock: Pawn>Rook Blackqueen>nothing queens are fairly weak in chess, far to much of a major target.
[17:38] Falerin: but you have your little analogy
[17:38] *** Alexander has signed off IRC (Vanished: ).
[17:38] ZLOK: In the end, it matters not.
[17:38] Lkeas: i don't honestly believe you think so little of Lore or its inhabitants, or any of us from other realms for that matter. why would you dedicate so much of your time and effort into your library if it were not so?
[17:38] ZLOK: I don't think anything matters in the end.
[17:38] Daniel: But what will you do for sport if we vanish?
[17:38] Falerin: And I speak only of power not of strategy. As the limitations a queen has in chess I do not. It is impossible to remove me
[17:39] * ZLOK shakes his head again.
[17:39] Falerin: What I always do torment the people of my own world
[17:39] * Formerly_Somebody glares at Falerin. "Spitefull little imp, aren't you?"
[17:39] ZLOK: It appears you can't even force yourself to understand.
[17:39] Lkeas: no no, FS, elf. not imp.
[17:40] Daniel: What if you wake up one millenia and find The`Galin takes advantage and backstabs you to attack your world?
[17:40] ZLOK: You are weak.
[17:40] Formerly_Somebody: No, Lkeas, I hold to my choice of words.
[17:40] Falerin: Oh I understand. I am deliberately manipulating your metaphor for my own purposes as it interferes with your intimation and in fact creates a much different and in fact worse one
[17:40] ZLOK: Mightier than most, but still weak.
[17:40] * Damsel 's lips curl in a shadow of a smile as she reguards the god of evil.
[17:41] ZLOK: Just as you cannot force me to actually agree on your words.
[17:41] Falerin: I am omnipotent ZLOK. Your version of weakness has naught to do with power tho. I really do not CARE about that form of weakness as its an irrelvance
[17:41] Falerin: Though I am sure it makes you feel superior and grants you amusement to say I am weak
[17:41] Shock: ((i have a paxia reward trophy #1 in aq, and i never bought one...))
[17:41] ZLOK: No.
[17:41] Falerin: Say whatever you wish... delight yourself.
[17:41] ZLOK: Your status matters not to me.
[17:41] Falerin: In the end I win.
[17:41] *** Alphonse has joined #755.
[17:41] *** Mode change "+v Alphonse" for channel #755 by Tralin.
[17:41] Daniel: How about we make you a deal, Falerin?
[17:41] ZLOK: You, are completely like everyone else.
[17:41] Falerin: So it really matters not
[17:41] Daniel: Our world, for your aid.
[17:41] >Ambiance<: Small circles of light appear by everyone's ears but Falerin's and Jeice's. All emit a single voice saying "I told you, did I not? Follow that naive king, and go to the slaughter. He does not understand who is actually good, and who is actually evil. He even insisted a god of Evil was good!" The circles vanish.
[17:42] *** Stromy has left #755.
[17:42] * LordBarrius stops laughing and glances in the direction of the arguing seekers. "You just don't understand, do you?"
[17:42] * Formerly_Somebody looks about, confused. "Wha?"
[17:42] * Lkeas frowns
[17:42] Shock: Well that was funny.
[17:42] bluemanrocks: ...
[17:42] * Jeice at this time doesn't notice the sudden magic.
[17:42] * Daniel pretends the voice didn't happen *
[17:43] Formerly_Somebody: That's the second time today that my wards have been disdained so completely. What toys with us here?
[17:43] ZLOK: So, does a god ever long for company?
[17:44] * bluemanrocks turns to LordBarrius. "Of course not..."
[17:44] * LordBarrius chuckles. "You shouldn't be spitting your venom at him anyways."
[17:44] Daniel: So Falerin, our whole world for your aid?
[17:45] * Damsel 's eyes narrow at Daniel. "What are you attempting to do?"
[17:45] Daniel: Everybody likes additional toys to play with.
[17:46] * Formerly_Somebody laughs at the posing god of evil. "You are nothing. I have beheld true gods, have gazed into the Far Reaches and seen them at their business. You are nothing. Your day of reckoning shall come, and all you have worked for shall fall apart. And when that happens, whatever is left of me will be watching. And I will laugh."
[17:46] * Daniel ignores Damsel, clearly focused on Falerin *
[17:46] * Nicholas yawns slightly.
[17:47] * bluemanrocks sits down in his corner...
[17:47] Falerin: I do not think so... your world is beyond hope
[17:47] * Falerin vanishes
