Tirlerion's Aid
From Caelwiki
- [19:02] * +Dusk is a pacifist, mostly.
- [19:02] * silversyte belts the sword on around his shoulder
- [19:] <silversyte> There that feels better.
- [19:] * +Dusk smiles to himself, happy and content with his life for the moment.
02: [19:04] * &Ryei (durroth@Caelestia-E758B1FD.cncdnh.east.verizon.net) Quit (Ping timeout)
- [19:05] * silversyte stretches "Anyone new show up?"
02: [19:] * &Ferret (talonmk5@Operator.Caelestia.net) Quit (Broken pipe)
- [19:07] <&Elenor> That tends to happen a lot.
- [19:07] * +Dusk hums a happy little tune, quite unaware he's doing so, of course.
- [19:07] * Ferret (talonmk5@A748C7B1.63E26D2C.4A6C4F.IP) has joined #darkabode
- [19:07] * Abode sets mode: +ao Ferret Ferret
- [19:08] * silversyte wipes his mouth because of a strange taste of blood
- [19:08] <silversyte> What the hell?
- [19:08] <&Elenor> Huh?
- [19:09] * TaloToecan knocks at the door of the private room, being polite in case the younger Damsel is busy with something
- [19:09] <silversyte> Was I bleeding?
- [19:09] <&Elenor> Yeah?
- [19:09] * +Dusk seems to be in a world of his own.
- [19:09] <>Ambiance<> The abode shudders violently
- [19:09] <+Selarep> "Odd..."
- [19:09] * &Elenor suddenly jumps to her feet.
- [19:10] <&Elenor> Okay, that can't be good.
- [19:10] <+Selarep> "Damn...We might be under attack."
- [19:10] * +Dusk holds the side of his chair "Huh?!"
- [19:10] * +Selarep unsheathes his sword in case.
- [19:10] * TaloToecan fights to keep his balance for a brief moment, before riding the shudder out with a frown.
- [19:10] * &Damsel staggers to the door, looking at Talo in wide-eyed surprise.
- [19:10] * Ryei (durroth@Caelestia-9737F9.man.east.verizon.net) has joined #darkabode
- [19:10] * &Elenor places a hand on her sword.
- [19:10] * +Selarep glances around, darting his eyes from the walls to the door.
- [19:10] * Abode sets mode: +ao Ryei Ryei
- [19:10] * Dairsu is now known as Kiyodai
- [19:10] * Younger Damsel quickly regains her bearings and frowns. "Let me guess... no idea what caused that either?"
- [19:11] * +Dusk seems rather confused "What's going on?"
- [19:11] <&Elenor> Don't know...
- [19:11] <>Ambiance<> The abode shudders violently again
- [19:11] * Kiyodai gets up from trying to assemble his weighted clothes. "What in the name of..?"
- [19:11] <&Elenor> But it doesn't sound good...
- [19:11] * +Dusk grips the edges of his chair tightly.
- [19:11] <+Selarep> "House? Are you here?"
- [19:11] <silversyte> Wasn't aware we are on a fault line.
- [19:11] <&Abode> Here am I
- [19:11] <+Selarep> "Good."
- [19:11] * TaloToecan reaches out to hold her gently and stay in the doorway. "Not a clue, dear heart."
- [19:12] <+Selarep> "What caused that shaking?"
- [19:12] <&Abode> You did
- [19:12] * +Dale yawns, unphased by the shaking.
- [19:12] <+Selarep> "...Great. Just as I figured."
- [19:12] <&Elenor> What?!
- [19:12] <silversyte> But I just woke up I didn't do anything bad yet.
- [19:12] <+Selarep> "Abode, are you angry with us now?"
- [19:12] <Kiyodai> "I assume the house means someone is attacking us.."
- [19:13] <silversyte> We should never assume.
- [19:13] * &Elenor walks over to the computer and opens it. "Comptuer, what is the source of the recent shaking in the abode?"
- [19:13] <&Abode> My creator is... enraged
- [19:13] <silversyte> But....Is someone attacking abode?
- [19:13] <+Selarep> "...Bloody hell."
- [19:13] * &Elenor stops short of the computer, turning around.
- [19:13] <+Dale> Arden? Falerin?
- [19:13] <&Elenor> Oh... Crap...
- [19:13] * Younger Damsel looks at Talo concerned and reaches out a hand for his own.
- [19:13] * TaloToecan considers for a moment, listening to the Abode's voice regardless. "I think we should join the others, with our things just in case."
- [19:14] * &LordBarrius descends the staircase with the elder Damsel, a concerned look on his face. "What's going on?"
- [19:14] <Kiyodai> "What could we have possibly done to incite the wrath of Falerin or Arden?"
- [19:14] <&Elenor> The abode just said that it's creator is enraged...
- [19:14] <Kiyodai> "The house is shaking..and it says that WE are the cause.."
- [19:14] * The younger Damsel nods her head, darts quickly into the room to grab her pack and returns to Talo's side.
- [19:15] * +Necro teleports into the abode, a grimmace on his face.
- [19:16] <Kiyodai> "Huh? Whor
- [19:16] <Kiyodai> ((Huh? Who're you?"))
- [19:16] <+Selarep> "Abode, do you know why he is angry with us?"
- [19:17] <silversyte> Is he angry with us or someone else?
- [19:17] * TaloToecan waits for her, having little other than his personage anyway, and the small satchel already at his waist. He grabs her hand gently and leads them downstairs with some haste to join the others.
- [19:17] * +Dusk is curled up on the chair beside the window, looking kinda...scared.

- [19:18] <>Ambiance<> A thunderous roar fills the air and lightning tears the night sky. A single bolt with five forks touches down locally and then hangs there not fading like normal lightning but rather expanding till it eclipses the whole horizon.
- [19:18] <>Ambiance<> Within the corona of the Lightning bolt the figure of Falerin-: [Asleep] peers into the relative dimness of the channel
- [19:18] * Falerin-: [Asleep] (Falerin@Operator.Caelestia.net) has joined #darkabode
- [19:18] * Falerin-: [Asleep] enters the channel with a whoosh
- [19:18] <>Ambiance<> The lightning fades leaving only a charged atmosphere to indicate what transpired.
- [19:18] * Abode sets mode: +qo Falerin-: [Asleep] Falerin-: [Asleep]
- [19:18] * Falerin-: [Asleep] is now known as Falerin
- [19:18] * +Selarep blinks.
- [19:19] <Kiyodai> "F-Falerin?"
- [19:19] * ~Falerin stares at Necro pointedly
- [19:19] * &Elenor blinks.
- [19:19] * Both Damsel have to blink rapidly, trying to make their eyes adjust thanks to the sudden changes in lighting.
- [19:19] * silversyte is not sure what to say
- [19:19] <+Dale> "Good eve, Falerin."
- [19:19] <~Falerin> It is nothing like good
- [19:19] * Liliana (mistressli@Caelestia-188A9222.hsd1.pa.comcast.net) has joined #darkabode
- [19:19] * TaloToecan thinks his eyes as they adjust quite rapidly indeed to the lighting changes. "Evening, then, Falerin."
- [19:19] <&Elenor> ((PS: If you haven't seen El's new character description, PM me and I'll send you it.))
- [19:19] * +Dusk circles his knees with his arms and closes his eyes.
- [19:20] * &Elenor notices Fal staring at Necro, confirming her suspicions.
- [19:20] <Kiyodai> "What is going on? The house says its creator is enraged...and that WE are the cause....or someone at any rate."
- [19:20] <~Falerin> The house speaks the truth
- [19:20] * Kazuma (romulus777@Caelestia-63732337.no.no.cox.net) has joined #darkabode
- [19:20] * Abode sets mode: +v Kazuma
- [19:20] <~Falerin> I am enraged
- [19:20] * +Nick enters the abode and looks in utter disbelief at Falerin being there "Oh...bad time...I suppose."
- [19:20] <&Elenor> I think I know why..
- [19:20] <~Falerin> and the seekers are the cause of my rage
- [19:21] <+Dale> "All of us?"
- [19:21] <+Dale> "What'd we do?"
- [19:21] <~Falerin> As a group...
- [19:21] * TaloToecan sighs softly and squeezes the younger Damsel's hand gently.
- [19:21] <silversyte> Sorry?
- [19:21] * Vixen (Valedia@Operator.Caelestia.net) has joined #darkabode
- [19:21] * +Necro sighs, and stands up. "Don't involve the others. It's my fault for going out on the wrong limb"
- [19:21] <~Falerin> You involved them
- [19:21] <+Kazuma> What did we do now?
- [19:21] <~Falerin> They allowed themselves to be involved
- [19:21] <silversyte> I should have stayed asleep.
- [19:22] * The younger Damsel holds Talo's hand tightly, feeling her fingers grow cold with worry.
- [19:22] <+Kazuma> I was asleep
- [19:22] * Lucas_Michaels (leekrs1@Caelestia-269143B.unk.tds.net) has joined #darkabode
- [19:22] * Kiyodai takes a seat next to Elenor. He whispers. "What do you think happened?"
- [19:22] * +Brink appears on a couch and stands upon seeing Falerin.
- [19:22] <+Necro> While I am probably aware of what the charges are, could you at least repeat them so we're on the same ground and the other Seeker's who are unaware can know them?
- [19:22] * &Elenor nods, agreeing with Falerin.
- [19:23] <~Falerin> Do not play games with me.
- [19:23] <~Falerin> I am not in the mood.
- [19:23] <+Dale> "Not all of us were involved at all. Though, I won't complain. I understand, one does something, and involves a good portion of a group, and the rest become involved by association, no?"
- [19:23] * +Dusk sits up, on the edge of his seat.
- [19:23] <~Falerin> You are doing what paxian's do best....
- [19:23] <+Kazuma> recrute?
- [19:23] * ~Falerin turns and stares not so much at as through Kaxuma
- [19:24] <~Falerin> *Kazuma
- [19:24] * +Dusk hides behind his hair, although he doesn't know what going on he's generally shy in situations like this.
- [19:24] * TaloToecan frowns softly. "I do not like where this is headed, but there is little I think I can do to curb your anger, Falerin.
- [19:24] * +Nick sighs "I did help escalate the situation, my lord..."
- [19:24] * Macer (Macer@RP.GM.darkside) has joined #darkabode
- [19:24] * +Kazuma shudders and falls silent
- [19:24] * Abode sets mode: +v Macer
- [19:24] * &Elenor is standing out in the open, not afraid.
- [19:24] <+Selarep> "..."
- [19:24] <+Brink> "I'm afraid I took part greatly in the debait, LoreMaster."
- [19:24] <silversyte> Would you mind telling us what we did?
- [19:25] <+Necro> I am sorry for angering you, that was not the intention at all
- [19:25] * Vixen is now known as Valedia
- [19:25] <Kiyodai> "Falerin...as the seekers, if one of us does wrong, then we all do wrong. What is the charge?"
- [19:25] * &Randal is leaning against a wall half asleep
- [19:25] * Abode sets mode: +v Valedia
- [19:26] <~Falerin> Oh and what pray did you would do.
- [19:26] * ~Falerin turns
- [19:26] <&Elenor> They tried to establish a power structure here. A government.
- [19:26] <~Falerin> Let me answer one question for you rather clearly...
- [19:26] <TaloToecan> "We are a family, we've never needed one."
- [19:26] * +Nick nods at Talo.
- [19:26] <~Falerin> If you wish to establish a bureaucracy... you will do it outside of my domicile completely.
- [19:27] * bule (bule@Caelestia-75B511E.washdc.fios.verizon.net) has joined #darkabode
- [19:27] <&Elenor> I was trying to say that all along. We need to understand each other, not form a bloody government.
- [19:27] <~Falerin> Furthermore... that is one act of several that irritates me this evening
- [19:27] <+Dale> "I see, so there's more than one."
02: [19:27] * bule (bule@Caelestia-75B511E.washdc.fios.verizon.net) Quit (Distracted: AQStats Web Client)
- [19:28] * TaloToecan frowns further. "Of...several?"
- [19:28] <~Falerin> I have seen rather incriminating records of other acts on the part of seekers toward each other that I must say encourage my irritation even further
- [19:28] <+Dale> "Such as?"
- [19:28] <~Falerin> That let me be sure this is a general trend...
- [19:28] <&Elenor> Murry hurling explosives around...
- [19:28] <TaloToecan> "Which acts, Falerin."
- [19:29] * +Dusk mutters "...I did try and stop it"
- [19:29] <~Falerin> Tell Counterfeit that if he does not stop in inciting division
- [19:29] <~Falerin> I will reformat him myself
- [19:29] <~Falerin> Permanently
- [19:29] <+Selarep> "..."
- [19:29] <~Falerin> Ah yes at that brings me to the next point
- [19:30] * eaglesdud33 is now known as net|eaglesdud33
02: [19:30] * +Brink (ashoup1@9B92D004.2D4D6190.184804C.IP) Quit (Awoke: Forcefully being Yanked by my grandmother, will someone gives me logs tommorow, please.)
- [19:30] <~Falerin> The overaching question... Unity or Orginization?
- [19:30] <~Falerin> Unity or Orginization?!
- [19:31] <&Elenor> UNITY!
- [19:31] <~Falerin> You believe you have some choice here?
- [19:31] <Kiyodai> "Unity. No doubt."
- [19:31] <+Nick> We have no choice...
- [19:31] <~Falerin> As if they could be exclusionary
- [19:31] * Both Damsels appear surprised while the set of their jaws appears grim. The elder is the one though to speak. "You can have both, or you can have neither."
- [19:31] <+Selarep> "No choice. Wonderful..."
- [19:31] <~Falerin> There is no orginzation in the absence of Unity.
- [19:31] <TaloToecan> "We have our issues at both, it is my hope that we would rectify them more by gentle manner than by forced heirarchies upon a family."
- [19:31] * &LordBarrius nods silent agreement with the elder Damsel.
- [19:32] <+Nick> Thats not the question I was trying to pose, it was merely that we could have Unity, and not be a government...
- [19:32] <~Falerin> You have neither.
- [19:32] <~Falerin> At this very moment I would rather be in paxia then here.
- [19:32] <&Elenor> Eek.
- [19:32] <~Falerin> The paxian's, even those who label themselves as hellseekers at least get the point
- [19:32] * Kiyodai sits silently down on a chair. "We have....neither?"
- [19:32] <~Falerin> You who have journeyed with me for so long....
- [19:32] <~Falerin> Clearly do not.
- [19:33] * &Elenor now appears less sure of herself.
- [19:33] <+Dale> "Falerin... I don't mean to speak out of place, but not all of us were involved in this. I *still* have no clue what you're talking about."
- [19:33] * The younger Damsel sighs softly, knowing that his words, though harsh, are not invalid.
- [19:34] <~Falerin> Abode, you are reassigned. Detach yourself from this pysical structure,
- [19:34] * +Nick hangs his head slightly.
- [19:34] * &Abode (Abode@Darkabode.caelestia.net) has left #darkabode (UNASSIGN from Falerin)
- [19:34] <&Elenor> What?!
02: [19:34] * +Xforce (Jointed@Caelestia-5204E6.svil.netcampus.ca) Quit (Ping timeout)
- [19:34] <silversyte> What the?
- [19:34] <~Falerin> Arden!
- [19:34] * Kiyodai has an utter look of shock on his face.
- [19:35] * Arden descends the stairs
- [19:35] <&Elenor> ...Eep. This doesn't sound good.
- [19:35] * TaloToecan grits his teeth, but knows precedent to this has happened before
- [19:35] <Arden> What is it...
- [19:35] <~Falerin> You are going back to your home on Valoria. Now.
- [19:35] <Arden> What...
- [19:35] <ElderDamsel> "Are you... forcing what little remains of the feelings of family in this place... apart?"
- [19:36] <~Falerin> You are going back to your home on Valoria. NOW
- [19:36] * Arden vanishes
- [19:36] * &Elenor blinks and stiffens up, hoping that this isn't what she thinks it is.
- [19:36] <+Dale> "Falerin, I think you're overreacting just a tad..."
- [19:36] <~Falerin> You do?
- [19:36] * +Dusk holds his head in his hands, not wanting to believe this is happening.
- [19:36] <Kiyodai> "Falerin....do you truly believe we have no chance for organization and unity?"
- [19:37] * +Dale shrugs. "Just a bit, for what's it worth."
- [19:37] * TaloToecan glances towards the Elder Damsel briefly. "Falerin, you have done this before...are you attempting the same again, in order to force us to reforge those tighter family bonds in the face of adversity?"
- [19:37] <~Falerin> Pity you no say in my actions then isn't it...
- [19:37] <+Dale> Indeed.
- [19:37] <&Elenor> What exactly is happening?
- [19:37] <+Dale> "But I just thought I'd speak my mind."
- [19:38] * +Nick looks somewhat dazed.
- [19:38] * +Selarep sighs and holds his forehead by the fingertips of his right hand.
- [19:39] * karen (Bloodlord@Caelestia-F8BFA182.hsd1.ct.comcast.net) has joined #darkabode
- [19:39] <~Falerin> I summon you....
- [19:39] * Enmity (Enmity@Of.theevilgod.net) has joined #darkabode
- [19:39] * Enmity sets mode: +ao Enmity Enmity
- [19:40] * +Necro rubs his eyebrows, sighing. "Falerin, before you condemn this entire group, can I ask one thing?"
- [19:40] <~Falerin> Monitor them, report, offer them no assistance whatsoever, If they enter the correct direct instructions then respond otherwise do nothing. Even if one should be dying.
- [19:40] <~Falerin> Let them die.
- [19:40] * The elder Damsel moves to LordBarrius and gently takes his arm. "If you are disbanding this family... pulling the roots out from under us again..." She shakes her head sadly. "I had just found contentment Falerin... Just began to love this family for what it is... if you are destroying that... why should we stay?"
- [19:40] <+Selarep> "..."
- [19:40] <~Falerin> Prevent no intrustion in the absence of direct instruction.
- [19:40] <~Falerin> Disable all alarms and protections
- [19:41] <~Falerin> Again in the absence of the same.
- [19:41] * &Elenor appears to be trying to say something, but it just won't seem to make it out of her mouth.
- [19:41] <~Falerin> Disable the curtain that protects them from the charge of unauthorized spellcraft in the City bounds...
- [19:41] <~Falerin> Leave them entirely to their own devices.
- [19:41] <~Falerin> Watch for the signs agreed
- [19:41] <+Dale> "Falerin! You realize what could can and will happen, don't you!? You'd condemn us this far?"
- [19:41] <TaloToecan> "You are being...cold hearted. As is your want and your portfolio."
- [19:41] <~Falerin> When seen sufficently and for long enough... THEN and only then alert me
- [19:42] <&Elenor> Whaa... What exactly is this?
- [19:42] * ~Falerin turns to the assembled
- [19:42] <silversyte> Survival?
- [19:42] <~Falerin> And I have not forgotten your agreed upon current quest
- [19:42] <~Falerin> I expect it done....
- [19:42] <~Falerin> Without my aid
- [19:42] * ~Falerin vanishes
- [19:42] <+Nick> We either unite and seek Elenor, or we die.
- [19:42] <+Selarep> "Very well."
- [19:43] <&Elenor> So... He's going to kill us all if we don't?
- [19:43] <+Selarep> "Looks like the kiddy gloves are off..."
- [19:43] <Kiyodai> "This....this could be the end..."
- [19:43] * ~Falerin (Falerin@Operator.Caelestia.net) has left #darkabode
- [19:43] * &Elenor blinks serveral times. "So... What exactly just happened?!"
- [19:43] <Kiyodai> "Falerin basically told us we have filed as seekers..."
- [19:44] * +Nick sighs and falls back on the couch.
- [19:44] <silversyte> He pretty much said be good or you die.
- [19:44] <Kiyodai> "And he summoned a..thing to monitor us."
- [19:44] * +Dusk mutters "We do what he says or...We die..."
- [19:44] * The elder Damsel begins to weep, quietly and unashamed. "So... father... is this how you would see it end?"
- [19:44] <TaloToecan> "What he summoned matters little."
- [19:44] <silversyte> Well this sounds like tons of fun don't it?
- [19:44] * Kiyodai hits the wall in frustration. "....just when I thought I'd finally found a home..."
- [19:45] <+Dale> "This is still a home."
- [19:45] <&Genoclysm> This happens all too often.
- [19:45] * &LordBarrius shudders and wraps an arm around the elder Damsel, attempting his best to comfort her.
- [19:45] <+Dale> "We just have to work a bit harder."
- [19:45] * +Dusk 's words catch in his throat, and he gasps quietly.
- [19:45] * TaloToecan frowns heavily. "He has lost both trust AND respect in us, this time, Genoclysm. This is NOT an 'all too often' event."
- [19:45] <+Kazuma> WE have to start working for us to work harder, Dale
- [19:45] * +Necro sighs. "This is my fault for misinturpretting Lkeas. Lovely that he decided a baptism by fire method... Damn, I don't even belong here for screwing everyone else"
- [19:45] * &Elenor sort of just crumples to the floor in slow motion. "Oh... That's.... Bad...."
- [19:45] * +Nick hunches over and puts his head in his hands.
- [19:45] <&Genoclysm> It seems similar enough to past occurances before.
- [19:46] <+Dale> "Necro, wallowing in self-pity won't reverse what's happened. What's done is done."
- [19:46] <Kiyodai> "Necro...be quiet. We are a family, and we all deal with the punishment together."
- [19:46] <+Necro> I know
- [19:46] * silversyte seems to have a smile on his face
- [19:46] <&Elenor> What... Exactly is this? Has this happened before?
- [19:46] <+Necro> So, what do we do now?
- [19:46] <&Ryei> more or less
- [19:47] * Liliana is now known as Angela
- [19:47] * silversyte stretches
- [19:47] * The younger Damsel searches Talo's face with her deeply troubled eyes. "Do you think... we should stay? Or..." She shakes her head slowly.
- [19:47] * +Dusk breathes "I don't...I don't remember it..."
- [19:47] * karen (Bloodlord@Caelestia-F8BFA182.hsd1.ct.comcast.net) has left #darkabode
- [19:48] * Kiyodai is now known as Dairsu
- [19:48] * Valedia is now known as Vixen|Sleep
- [19:48] * +Dale ponders to himself.
- [19:48] * Dairsu is now known as Kiyodai
- [19:48] * +Kazuma grabs a scroll, and starts reading, "I'm not going to die. Not yet, not here."
- [19:48] <&Genoclysm> You can leave and give up, sure, of you can stay and try to mend things.
- [19:48] <+Dale> "Perhaps if Falerin won't help us, maybe we can get some from Mariel?
- [19:48] <&Genoclysm> ((or*))
- [19:48] <+Dale> "
- [19:48] * TaloToecan bites his lip, hard enough that it begins to quite evidently bleed. "I...cannot disregard the peril my Sibkin by blood are in. I cannot, on the same token, disregard the situation here."
- [19:49] <&Genoclysm> I'd guess our best bet for that task would be Tirlerion, Dale. He has mutual interest in it.
- [19:49] * &Elenor blinks, ovbiously not taking this well.
- [19:49] * Tirlerion (Falerin@Operator.Caelestia.net) has joined #darkabode
- [19:49] <Kiyodai> "We're stuck in between a rock, and a hard place..."
- [19:49] * +Nick sighs "We need to come together...as a group now more then ever.
- [19:49] * The younger Damsel nods with a pained expression. "To choose... one family... or the other."
- [19:49] * Tirlerion appears
- [19:49] <+Necro> And organize
- [19:49] <&Ryei> Damnit
- [19:49] <Tirlerion> Mariel will not go against Falerin
- [19:49] <&Genoclysm> Oh, whoops, other obligations... Yeah, that would be understandable.
- [19:49] <Kiyodai> "Speak of the devil.."
- [19:49] <+Dale> I figured.
- [19:49] <&Ryei> why do we keep DOING that
- [19:49] * +Nick looks at the new arrival "Hello Tirlerion..."
- [19:49] <&Ryei> I dont suppose
- [19:50] <&Ryei> that you'd like some coffee THIS time?
- [19:50] * +Dusk shies back in his seat.
- [19:50] * &Elenor manages to (barely), get up and walk to a couch, which she basically falls onto.
- [19:50] * +LBB_LurkKing peeps out from under the couch, making no comment on any of the events that have just transpired. As it has no facial features, that is the single greatest comment on how TERRIFIED it is at the moment.
- [19:50] * Beo (Beo@Caelestia-48A7BA44.pitbpa.fios.verizon.net) has joined #darkabode
- [19:50] * Enmity sets mode: +v Beo
- [19:50] <+Selarep> "Hello, Tirlerion..."
- [19:50] <Tirlerion> You summoned me Odeycian.
- [19:50] * +Nick looks to Elenor, "It'll be fine, as long as we can do what Falerin said...this time..."
- [19:51] <&Elenor> I have every intention of doing so...
- [19:51] * TaloToecan glances over at Genoclysm. "You...turn swiftly to him. Though I do not doubt his veracity, honesty, or willingness..." He sighs, heavily, and moves to rest his head against the younder Damsel's shoulder to his his tears at being forced to choose so terribly.
- [19:51] <&Genoclysm> I summoned you? I just referred to you is all.
- [19:51] <Tirlerion> Is there a difference?
- [19:51] <+Dale> Say, Tirlerion, are you forced to appear when someone says your name, or can you ignore it?"
- [19:51] * Kiyodai takes a seat next to Elenor. "But how are we going to manage it? It's easier said than done.."
- [19:51] <&Genoclysm> I suppose there isn't.
- [19:51] <silversyte> So everytime we say your name you will appear?
- [19:51] <Tirlerion> If I am not otherwise engaged.
- [19:52] <+Dale> "I see. Rather handy, that."
- [19:52] <Tirlerion> You have gone and done it this time. Haven't you...
- [19:52] <&Genoclysm> My figuring is that we can't gather leads without information, and we can't get information without help, and that is why I said Tirlerion was our best bet.
- [19:52] <Tirlerion> Indeed. I suppose that I am at that.
- [19:52] * The younger Damsel places her arms gently about Talo, and not simply for his own comfort. Her eyes look haunted thanks to the nature of the choice before them both and it is only by a small thread that she keeps her own emotions from spilling over.
- [19:53] <silversyte> Well good luck.
- [19:53] <Tirlerion> Computer are you still searching?///
- [19:53] <Computer> Affirmative
- [19:53] * silversyte walks to a wall and falls asleep against it
- [19:53] * silversyte (anubisego@Caelestia-C3CF798A.cfl.res.rr.com) has left #darkabode
- [19:53] <Tirlerion> Limit your initial search to Valoria and Mithius Major
- [19:54] <Tirlerion> That is where he called home for eons
- [19:54] <Tirlerion> That is a likely place
- [19:54] <+Dale> "Arden or Falerin?"
- [19:54] <&Genoclysm> Morgan
- [19:54] <+Dale> "I see."
- [19:54] * &Elenor is apparently not taking this well at all, still not quite comprehending what's going on.
- [19:54] <+Dale> "Well, now I feel rather dumb."
- [19:54] <&Genoclysm> Falerin did task us with killing him off...
- [19:55] <Tirlerion> So then... It occurs to me I can help you with more immediate concerns as well
- [19:55] <+Dale> "How so?"
- [19:55] * +LBB_LurkKing finally pipes up. "Like what, Big T?"
- [19:55] <Tirlerion> In the absence of Falerin's aid you are all in very real danger
- [19:55] <&Ryei> you dont say
- [19:55] * +Nick puts a hand on Elenor's shoulder "Don't worry about it too much, just do what Falerin said, and nothing will happen..."
- [19:56] <+LBB_LurkKing> Are we about to be offered a choice between integrity and pragmatism?
- [19:56] <Tirlerion> Did you know for instance that Fair Harbor forbids the use of any psionic or spell ability within the bounds of the city without a permit
- [19:56] * net|eaglesdud33 is now known as som3dud33
- [19:56] <+Necro> What about technology and enchanted weaponry?
- [19:56] <&Elenor> Oh.... That's... Bad...
- [19:56] * &LordBarrius silently glances around the room before turning back to the elder Damsel. He leans in quietly to whisper into her ear.
- [19:56] <+Dale> "I'd heard something similar. When we first arrived, if I recall."
- [19:57] <Tirlerion> And that the penalty for violation is not less then 25 years in prison
- [19:57] * Kiyodai looks at Elenor in the eyes. "C'mon. This isn't the Elenor that fought toe-to-toe with Randal. This will all turn out fine, I promise."
- [19:57] <&Elenor> They're probably already detecting the enchantments woven around me.
- [19:57] <Tirlerion> Consider if you will the fact that many of you teleport to and from this place with regularity
- [19:57] * +Nick sighs "Thats pretty long...for just using magic..."
- [19:57] <Tirlerion> If you were to try to teleport out now...
- [19:58] <Tirlerion> Well lets see... Teleport without Error
- [19:58] <Tirlerion> Level 9
- [19:58] <Tirlerion> 9 x 25 years
- [19:58] <+Kazuma> Where does one get a permit?
- [19:58] * TaloToecan bunches some of the fabric of Damsel's robe in a fist for a brief moment before whirling about, partially dried tears still marked upon his face. "I am in danger, for that which I cannot disable, and furthermore I will not endager my Sibkin. Is the Gate still availible for use, or did that also leave with the presence of the Abode, Tirlerion?"
- [19:58] <+Dale> "Holy shit."
- [19:58] <&Elenor> I'm surprised they're not here for me already.
- [19:58] <+Selarep> "...Great."
- [19:58] * +Kazuma blinks
- [19:58] <+LBB_LurkKing> ...that's troublesome.
- [19:58] <+Kazuma> 225 years
- [19:58] <+Necro> Tirlerion, what about technology? Does the permit apply to that as well?
- [19:58] <&Elenor> Tirlerion, what about enchantments? I am laden with enchantments...
- [19:58] <Tirlerion> If the technology operates on premises that cause a replication of spell effect
- [19:58] * The elder Damsel nods her head in acknowledgement, her tears slowing slightly but not stopping. "I know... I know..."
- [19:59] <Tirlerion> it is considered technomancy
- [19:59] <+LBB_LurkKing> ...I have to wonder, though.
- [19:59] <Tirlerion> Technomancy is treated as spell craft
- [19:59] * Angela is now known as D`Lila
- [19:59] <+LBB_LurkKing> Falerin knew all this.
- [19:59] <Tirlerion> And lets not forget Plushiei
- [19:59] <Kiyodai> "So, you're saying, we're in deep danger of getting arrested."
- [19:59] <Tirlerion> Why a living spell
- [19:59] <+LBB_LurkKing> Isn't it entirely possible that he wanted it this way?
- [19:59] <Tirlerion> The very existance of which asks for a dispel magic to be cast
- [19:59] <+Nick> And my body would probably earn some time aswell I presume...
- [19:59] <+LBB_LurkKing> Maybe our answer to accepting or declining your aid is part of the test...?
- [19:59] <&Elenor> Crap crap crap
- [19:59] <+Necro> Uh-huh, makes sense, that means the transporters are out. So, you're going to tell us how we can get a permit at some sort of cost, that's what you're leading up to, right?
- [20:00] <Tirlerion> Maybe so... but which would be the right answer....
- [20:00] * &Elenor almost starts to mutter a spell, attempting to hide her enchantments, but then realizes what she was about to do.
- [20:00] * The younger Damsel looks at Talo, startled, then down to her left hand and back to her 'twin.' "Oh... By the Lady..."
- [20:00] <Kiyodai> "Tirlerion, stop playing games with us. What can we do about this?"
- [20:00] <Tirlerion> To accept Falerin's punishment and struggle on even with the threat to your number and perhaps losing several as a result
- [20:00] <+LBB_LurkKing> I'm not going to pretend to fathom Falerin's logical processes.
- [20:00] <Tirlerion> Or to accept my aid and keep your family whole
- [20:] <+LBB_LurkKing> ...if I know Falerin...
- [20:] <+LBB_LurkKing> And I can't say that I do...
- [20:] <Kiyodai> "Heh...and at what cost does your aid come?"
- [20:] <+LBB_LurkKing> But...I think...
- [20:] <+LBB_LurkKing> Family above all.
- [20:] <+LBB_LurkKing> That would be his answer, I'd think.
- [20:] <Tirlerion> Which does the God of Evil really want of you... Accepting his leadership? Is that his interest?
- [20:] <Kiyodai> "Surely if accept aid from the one who wants to usurp Falerin....we won't be much better off."
- [20:] <&Elenor> Tirlerion... You are offering aid that will keep this family whole?
- [20:] <+LBB_LurkKing> We need to act in each others' interests now that he won't act for us.
- [20:] * &Randal stirrs
- [20:] <+LBB_LurkKing> So...where to we sign, Big T?
- [20:02] <+Nick> Aye, we need to stay together.
- [20:02] <&Randal> "Sorry.. I fell asleep. What's up?"
- [20:02] * +Kazuma sits back, "no portals, eh? Well, I can live without them I hope."
- [20:02] <+Kazuma> I lived without them long enough
- [20:02] <&Elenor> Randal.. We're in serious, serious, serious trouble.
- [20:02] <&Elenor> Fal's revoked all protections on this place.
- [20:02] <&Genoclysm> In my opinion, regardless of which is right for the test, safety is more important, is it not?
- [20:02] <+Kazuma> must...resist...urge...
- [20:02] * +Kazuma walks up the steps, "can't use portals..."
- [20:02] <Tirlerion> 3
- [20:02] <Tirlerion> Ah pragmatic
- [20:] <Tirlerion> How I love a good Pragmatist
- [20:] <+LBB_LurkKing> We can't win back his trust if we're dead.
- [20:] <+LBB_LurkKing> Er...earn back?
- [20:] <Tirlerion> Thats true
- [20:] <+LBB_LurkKing> Win, earn, whatever.
- [20:] <&LordBarrius> "Falerin....would want us to think of family first." He glances again at the elder Damsel and rests his head atop her shoulder. "We must stay together."
- [20:] <+LBB_LurkKing> And since you no longer act against him actively...
- [20:] <&Elenor> Yeah... Stay toghether... That's what it's about...
- [20:] <Tirlerion> And remember... I have withdrawn my immediate challenge to Falerin's portfolio
- [20:] * Kiyodai glances at all of the people he has met. "As much as I am loathe to accept it....would you render us aid?"
- [20:04] <Tirlerion> Of course that does not mean I will NOT take actions that bolster my position should I choose to resume that quest
- [20:04] * TaloToecan glares around, quite distressed and fighting against his own urges and so many other impulses to try and suppress that which by nature cannot be so surpressed. "Your immediate challenge, true, but not the indirect laying of foundations to later go and trump him."
- [20:04] * +Nick nods "We should'a done this from the very beginning, the family first..."
- [20:04] * +LBB_LurkKing edges out from under the couch completely, shaking off a few stray cobwebs. "Do I call you Sir now, or what?"
- [20:04] <&Elenor> And Tirlerion's been helping us lately... He healed Arden... He's done many good things for us, actually.
- [20:04] <+Selarep> "Right..."
- [20:04] <Tirlerion> But then again... I do wish you to succeed in killing Orisis
- [20:04] <ElderDamsel> "Even if our father is gone... we can stay family..."
- [20:04] <Tirlerion> So it is of mutual benifit
- [20:05] * &Randal is standing there stunned
- [20:05] <+Kazuma> so I'm starting to wonder if the Network is all that bad after all
- [20:05] <+LBB_LurkKing> Is there a dotted line, Big T, or is a verbal contract enough?
- [20:05] <+Kazuma> are they really the enemy, or is it only a few members?
02: [20:05] * +Mobuis|AFK (Mobuis@Caelestia-9DBA06.dsl.stlsmo.swbell.net) Quit (Distracted: AQStats Web Client)
- [20:05] * Dale is now known as Dale|Sleep
- [20:05] <Tirlerion> In the interest of open disclosure however...
- [20:05] <+Nick> Its not Good vs. Bad Kazuma, Its never been that way...
- [20:05] <+Kazuma> I know
- [20:05] <Tirlerion> Honesty force me to note...
- [20:05] <+Kazuma> It's all situation
- [20:] <Tirlerion> That NONE of you currently reside in the abode.
- [20:] <+Kazuma> But in our situation, who wants us gone?
- [20:] <+Necro> Hey guys, I got a quick question, does The'Galin still owe us favors, or was that payed off? I lost track regretably
- [20:] <+Nick> The actions of Ryuusei and the few we've met can't reflect the whole of The Network.
- [20:] * +Kazuma walks back downstairs, sitting on the bottom step
- [20:] <+Selarep> "So...your place, then?"
- [20:] <+LBB_LurkKing> Oh, I see.
- [20:] <+LBB_LurkKing> We're fair game again now?
- [20:] <TaloToecan> "Is that a not so subtle threat, Tirlerion?"
- [20:07] * The elder Damsel nods. "I realized that almost immediately." Her tears have stopped flowing freely and she reguards Tirlerion with clearer eyes.
- [20:07] <&Elenor> You can harm us now... But Tirlerion... I don't see you as an enemy. From the time I've been here, all you've done is help us.
- [20:07] <+LBB_LurkKing> It's open season on the Seekers if you feel like it?
- [20:07] * +LBB_LurkKing giggles. "I'm fine with that."
- [20:07] <+Kazuma> I still want to know who wants us dead.
- [20:07] <&Genoclysm> It should not be in your interest to harm us while we work against Morgan.
- [20:07] <+Nick> Many people want us dead, Imagine how many times they've tried killing us.
- [20:08] <Tirlerion> Pragmatism again
- [20:08] * Crash is now known as HeMan
- [20:08] <+LBB_LurkKing> Charming philosophy, innit?
- [20:08] <Tirlerion> Several of your analogs were fortunately equally pragmatic
- [20:08] <+Necro> Talo, can I ask you something?
- [20:08] <&Genoclysm> And what is that supposed to mean?
- [20:08] <+LBB_LurkKing> Oh, not this again...
- [20:08] <Kiyodai> "Tirlerion, if you had wished us harm, you would've killed us already."
- [20:08] * HeMan is now known as Crash
- [20:09] <Tirlerion> Would I have?
- [20:09] <Tirlerion> You honestly do not know me well at akk Kiyodai.
- [20:09] <Kiyodai> "Heh...perhaps not. Maybe you'd just let us destory ourselves?"
- [20:09] <Tirlerion> Perhaps you might wish to consult further with you siblings here before making such assumptions
- [20:09] <TaloToecan> "My other self remained in your trap of a realm by his own whim, trusting you. I still and also still do trust you, Tirlerion. But know this, you had better not use this to cross us in the future, once the suspension of the challenge is lifted. I...accept."
- [20:10] <Tirlerion> I had better not?
- [20:10] <Tirlerion> Is that a threat of your own Useless?
- [20:10] * +Necro walks over to Damsel, and whispers something in her ear
- [20:10] * TaloToecan continues to focus almost entirely upon Tirlerion, but gives Necro the slightest bit of a nod in acceptance to any question he might ask.
- [20:10] <ElderDamsel> "For formality's sake... what are the terms of your assistance?"
- [20:10] <+Necro> ((*Talo))
- [20:10] <TaloToecan> "I am...tired, of being the tool, Tirlerion. That is all."
- [20:10] <Tirlerion> Nothing but that you ask of your own volition.
- [20:11] <+LBB_LurkKing> Is that all?
- [20:11] <Tirlerion> Indeed
- [20:11] <&Randal> "No catch?"
- [20:11] <+LBB_LurkKing> Geeze, I thought it'd be something inconvenient.
- [20:11] <+LBB_LurkKing> Like a blood contract.
- [20:11] <Tirlerion> Well Randal there is one catch
- [20:11] <+LBB_LurkKing> No blood, donch'a know.
- [20:11] <&Randal> "And that is?"
- [20:11] <Tirlerion> Only those who do ask recieve my protection
- [20:11] <Tirlerion> Those who do not... will not gain it by proxy
- [20:12] <&Randal> "what of those who are not here now?
- [20:12] * +Nick looks up at Tirlerion and then looks at the rest of the group "We need to make the decision together..."
- [20:12] <Tirlerion> They may ask at anytime and it will be immediately available to them
- [20:12] * Paladin_Of_Souls stands from the couch he had been sitting on, and frowning, the entire time. "You are crafty and opportunistic as always, Tirlerion."
- [20:12] <&Ryei> Then I guess... I'm asking
- [20:12] <&Genoclysm> Then would we owe anything for this favor?
- [20:13] * +LBB_LurkKing skitters a mite closer to Tirlerion. "Well then, Big T, I have plenty of reason not to trust you. However, I have plenty MORE reason to trust in Falerin. I can't believe he doesn't have a plan."
- [20:13] <+LBB_LurkKing> So...
- [20:13] <Tirlerion> You would owe nothing but what your own conscience dictates Genesis Cataclysm
- [20:13] <+Nick> Isn't that the very opposite of what is needed to be done? It should be all or none at this point...
- [20:13] <Kiyodai> "May we ask for protection for others?"
- [20:13] <+LBB_LurkKing> Tirlerion, mind lending me your protection until things settle down here?
- [20:13] <&Randal> "you miss the point, Geno. We're asking HIM not Falerin.. we're putting our faith in Tirlerion.."
- [20:13] <Tirlerion> As there are no terms attached at the outset
- [20:13] <&Elenor> I see no reason not to ask... If it can save our lives, then what's the problem. If it doesn't? Then what have we lost. At worse we're just back where we started, correc?
- [20:13] <&Randal> "Amd will terms change?'
- [20:14] <+Kazuma> I trust him
- [20:14] * The elder Damsel sighs softly. "I would ask for all here, for the family as a whole. However, if that is not a valid option, I will at least ask for myself. Please, lend me your protection." The younger Damsel nods her head. "And I, as well."
- [20:14] <Tirlerion> No
- [20:14] <+LBB_LurkKing> ...no?
- [20:14] <+LBB_LurkKing> That's a bummer.
- [20:14] <Tirlerion> I was answering randal
- [20:14] <Tirlerion> Terms will not change
- [20:14] * +Nick nods "I trust him, I ask you Tirlerion for your protection."
- [20:14] <&Elenor> Tirlerion, I ask for your protection.
- [20:14] * &LordBarrius turns to look at the elder Damsel for a moment, nodding his agreement, before returning his focus to Tirlerion. "And I ask for your protections as well."
- [20:14] <&Randal> "Very well. On behalf of Marrin and myself I ask. He is with me on this one."
- [20:14] * +Dusk breathes quietly "Me too."
- [20:14] <+Selarep> "As do I."
- [20:15] * TaloToecan shakes his head negatively to Necro, before looking back at Tirlerion. "Fine. I ask for myself and my family, to whom that protection will be extended, for your protection. As stated in your deal. No obligations at the outset, and no changing of terms."
- [20:15] <&Ryei> I'm asking
- [20:15] <Tirlerion> Randal... Though you may be one for this purpose you are two
- [20:15] <De`thion> I guess I'm asking too
- [20:15] <Tirlerion> You may not ask on behalf of Marrin
- [20:15] <Tirlerion> Though do relate to him the following
- [20:15] * Marrin (marrin_aur@Caelestia-BBD872F6.vassar.edu) has joined #darkabode
- [20:15] * Enmity sets mode: +ao Marrin Marrin
- [20:15] <Tirlerion> Ah
- [20:15] <Tirlerion> Speak of the God
- [20:16] <&Marrin> "You may tell me yourself, Tirlerion. Randal and I still are in constant mindspeak, despite him not being my avatar anymore."
- [20:16] <Tirlerion> My offer to you is the same as to them... though it is in effect a bit different given your nature.
- [20:16] <Kiyodai> "I shall probably perish for this...but..Falerin would want us to solve the problem ourselves..not with tirlerion's help.."
- [20:16] <Paladin_Of_Souls> "Mindspeak, despite that already being outlawed once more by a raising of the shroud, eh? You play a different game of danger, Marrin, to even Tirlerions."
- [20:16] <Tirlerion> I offer you the ability to act unhindered as an agent of "my office"
- [20:17] * &Marrin nods "And the terms? I am still under the direction of the farpoint. You are offering to violate that?"
- [20:17] <Tirlerion> Violate? No sir... You see I am a Caelestian god.
- [20:17] <Tirlerion> Therefore I can choose what Agents I choose and they can act with divine power.
- [20:17] * +Necro whispers to Talo agaain
- [20:17] <Tirlerion> Much as Nyx chose the Ronin of Dreams
- [20:18] * +LBB_LurkKing whistles.
- [20:18] <+LBB_LurkKing> Man, Marrin gets all the COOL toys.
- [20:18] <Tirlerion> Ronin of Dreams acts as a god under her station.
- [20:18] <&Marrin> "Hmmm... Your offer is tempting. How long would this agency last?"
- [20:18] <Tirlerion> You could act freely as a god under mine.
- [20:18] <Tirlerion> For as long as it is mutually satisfactory.
- [20:18] * DrWho (overdarim@Caelestia-48EBF091.nwrknj.east.verizon.net) has joined #darkabode
- [20:18] <+Kazuma> Please, protect me. Romulus has been notified not to return here under the risk of imprisonment. His technology allows him to hop realms, so I used the audio clip. The means of communication was strictly by comm device.
- [20:18] <Tirlerion> Could be forever.
- [20:18] * +Nick smiles "Well...Agents hmmm?"
02: [20:18] * som3dud33 (overdarim@Caelestia-48EBF091.nwrknj.east.verizon.net) Quit (Ping timeout)
- [20:18] * DrWho is now known as som3dud33
- [20:19] * TaloToecan frowns and hisses negatively on multiple counts, not the least of which being Necro's particularly named suggestion.
- [20:19] * &Marrin shrugs "That's what they told me about twinkies. Wait a few millenia, they're gone. Tirlerion, as an agent, would I be forced to act against Falerin?"
- [20:19] <&Marrin> "Against the interests of those gathered here, that is."
- [20:19] <Tirlerion> I will force you to do nothing whatsoever.
- [20:20] * &Elenor relaxes a fair amount.
- [20:20] * Paladin_Of_Souls raises a singular eyebrow. "Oh? Oh really, eh? I would beseech Nyx, or by extention her messengerboy in the Ronin, which her Sight upon the proceedings then. Of course, if you do not mind, Tirlerion."
- [20:20] <Tirlerion> "Let the Ronin come"
- [20:20] <Tirlerion> "I could care less"
- [20:20] <&Marrin> "Then for the greater protection of those here, and for the benefit of us both, I place myself in your service. Your terms are more than fair. We shall wait for Nyx, for procedure's sake.
- [20:20] * Tirlerion leans back against a wall
02: [20:21] * +Crash (Fan@GreenBay.Packers.net) Quit (Iced: )
- [20:21] * +Nick seems somewhat relieved, but frowns slightly "I wonder where this will take us..."
- [20:21] * +Necro shrugs. "Alright, just wondering. In case this wasn't mentioned already I do ask for your protection and such Tirlerion"
- [20:21] * RoninOfDreams seems much to his own surprise brought to appear at such an...enclave awaiting decisions. "I...for what reason am I here, at this time of all times?"
- [20:21] <&Marrin> "Well met, again, Ronin."
- [20:22] * Paladin_Of_Souls smiles mysteriously at the Ronin, leaning heavily on his maul while staring at the Ronin. "I do not like you, and I well know that you do not like me. However...you present a certain...alternative to what is being proposed by even Tirlerion. Would you be able to offer what he provides?"
- [20:23] * &Marrin blinks
- [20:23] <Tirlerion> Dilution of Station
- [20:23] * RoninOfDreams looks inquisitively between the Paladin, the oddly mentally-silent Talo, and Tirlerion himself. "What...is the Paladin referring to?"
02: [20:23] * som3dud33 (overdarim@Caelestia-48EBF091.nwrknj.east.verizon.net) Quit (Exterminated: )
- [20:23] <Tirlerion> "I offered to accept Marrin as a deity underneath my own office"
- [20:24] * Paladin_Of_Souls laughs lightly. "That is not to which I refer, and you know it Tirlerion. Answer the Ronin plainly on the issue that interests me."
- [20:24] <&Marrin> "This does not interest you? Ah. I see."
- [20:24] * +Dusk thinks, and says quietly; addressing Tirlerion "I'd like to remove my previous request for help."
- [20:24] <Tirlerion> "The Paladin was inspired by such... I think he wishes a similar arrangement. With you..."
- [20:25] <&Ryei> no, thats a completely different topic
- [20:25] <Tirlerion> "He is missing the fact that Demipowers are somewhat more limited... The fact that they cannot even normally have Avatars being a sure sign"
- [20:25] <&Ryei> hes talking about the offer you made to the rest of us, not marrin
- [20:25] * Paladin_Of_Souls laughs even more loudly. "Fine, play your games, they amuse me so Tirlerion. No, Ronin, I ask if you or your Patron Goddess can offer what Tirlerion is providing the assembled. Protection in lieu of Falerin's own. Protection for the Family."
- [20:26] <Tirlerion> Oh I see... then what you are asking for Paladin is further division.
- [20:27] <Tirlerion> I had denied that such was a possibility so that had not occured to me
- [20:27] <Paladin_Of_Souls> "What I ask for is that any potentially valid alternatives exist. Especially because there are those who mistrust yourself for past experiences, or are wary enough all the same."
- [20:27] * &Marrin raises an eyebrow "He is doubtful, with a reason, I'm sure. However, this is not a time to be so denying of one's help."
- [20:28] <Tirlerion> "Well given as the Portfolio I have taken as an intermediate power is Dissention and Schemes"
- [20:28] <Tirlerion> "That is a fair enough warrant"
- [20:28] <Tirlerion> "Oh yes... it occurs to me that I forgot to mention that matter"
- [20:28] * +LBB_LurkKing laughs out loud.
- [20:28] * &Marrin grins wildly "Ooh... I like schemes. I had figured as much from your poise, however."
- [20:28] <Tirlerion> "When I laid aside my challenge to Falerin's office"
- [20:29] <Tirlerion> "I was given a promotion"
- [20:29] <+Nick> congratulations for you then.
- [20:29] * RoninOfDreams "I would not rightly know if I am of the ability to do so, in truth to you, Paladin. I would have to ask Nyx herself, my patron Goddess as you put it, whether she would condone such a deal through her Agent."
- [20:29] <&Elenor> Well, congratulations.
- [20:29] <Tirlerion> I had to have been to even offer you aid
- [20:29] <+Kazuma> Ah, I see
- [20:29] <Tirlerion> See underneath Therlion I was at most a demipower of my own
- [20:29] <+Necro> Makes sense
- [20:29] <Tirlerion> I am no longer acting underneath him.
- [20:29] * +Kazuma stands up from the steps, and moves over to the sofa
- [20:29] <Tirlerion> My superiror deity...
- [20:30] <Tirlerion> Is Falerin himself.
- [20:30] <+Kazuma> ...wait
- [20:30] * Mobuis (John@Caelestia-9DBA06.dsl.stlsmo.swbell.net) has joined #darkabode
- [20:30] * Enmity sets mode: +v Mobuis
- [20:30] * Tirlerion smiles sweetly
- [20:30] <+Kazuma> Doesn't that mean you're acting against him to protect us?
- [20:30] <+Kazuma> or am I lost?
- [20:30] <&Marrin> "Tirlerion... I must say. You have impressed me."
- [20:30] <&Elenor> That's great.
- [20:30] <Tirlerion> Does it?
- [20:30] <&Marrin> "Who the hell teaches you farpoint deities politics..."
- [20:30] * +Selarep twitches his eye at the sight of Tirlerion's "sweet" smile.
- [20:30] <+Kazuma> I'm self-taught.
- [20:30] <&Marrin> "Bloody genius.."
- [20:31] * Paladin_Of_Souls laughs, booming and evident, for quite some time. "Indeed, the plot thickens! You ought remember to disclose all such information, Tirlerion, as amusing as it is."
- [20:31] <+Nick> He his the god of schemes...this doesn't seem too odd actually.
- [20:31] * +LBB_LurkKing continues to laugh, rolling about on the floor as it does so. Given that it is a cube, this causes quite a bit of thumping about.
- [20:31] <+Kazuma> If you want to be my teacher, go for it
- [20:31] <+LBB_LurkKing> This explains SO MUCH!
- [20:32] <Tirlerion> Skipped Right over Lesser power and into Intermediate did I
- [20:32] <Tirlerion> It was quite interesting
- [20:33] <+LBB_LurkKing> Divine hopskotch?
- [20:33] <Tirlerion> Ah and yet I openly disclose it now
- [20:33] <Tirlerion> Any who wish to withdraw their request
- [20:33] <Tirlerion> May do so without reprisal
- [20:33] <Tirlerion> Ronin is my witness of that
- [20:34] * +Nick shakes his head "Made a decision, I'm sticking with it..."
- [20:34] <+LBB_LurkKing> I'd have to be crazier than I already am to even consider it! This is just knee-slapping hilarious!
- [20:34] <&Elenor> I see less than no reason to retract my decision.
- [20:34] <+Nick> You...don't have knees Box?
- [20:35] <+LBB_LurkKing> Oh, rigth. Can I slap yours, then?
- [20:35] <Kiyodai> "May I have your protection, Trilerion?"
- [20:35] * +Nick sticks out his leg and smiles "Go nuts..."
- [20:35] <RoninOfDreams> "I see very little reason for Nyx to be rightly involved, given how freely and honestly the bargain being given is."
- [20:37] <&Elenor> So.. This protection means that I can cast magic without having the Fair Harbor guard on me, right?
- [20:37] * +LBB_LurkKing executes a boxy backflip, then rams playfully into Nick's knee, laughing all the while.
- [20:38] * DevaCaliga appears from the shadow
- [20:38] * +Nick 's leg gives in a little but otherwise lets it happen.
- [20:39] <DevaCaliga> My aid to you remains as Falerin has requested. I have recieved no indication I am to stop. However it would not be prudent for me to go any further than I already have.
- [20:39] * +LBB_LurkKing falls to the floor, skitters once in a circle around Nick, then takes up its former position between its couch and Tirlerion, still chuckling gaily.
- [20:39] * TaloToecan is quite confused at this point on several levels, and conflicted.
- [20:40] <Tirlerion> Tirlerion likely as Falerin's agent knows more then I about his intentions.
- [20:40] <Tirlerion> *DevaCaliga
- [20:40] <+Nick> Lets just invite the whole pantheon...
- [20:40] * Xforce (Jointed@Caelestia-5204E6.svil.netcampus.ca) has joined #darkabode

- [20:40] * &Marrin uses nick's voice "We can have a TEA party"
- [20:40] <+LBB_LurkKing> ...nah, let's not.
- [20:40] <+LBB_LurkKing> This is cozy enough as it is.
- [20:41] * Caliga vanishes
- [20:41] <+Necro> Tirlerion, if we needed to leave right now by means of teleportation, could we do so without fear of reprisal?
- [20:41] <+LBB_LurkKing> Now that we've got, what, four acting gods here?
- [20:41] * RoninOfDreams "I appreciate your honesty and your addressment of the assembled, my Lady."
- [20:41] <+LBB_LurkKing> Oh, three.
- [20:41] * +Nick leans back into the couch and smiles at Marrin "As long I get some damn good crumpets."
- [20:41] <+LBB_LurkKing> Boo-hiss.
- [20:41] * &Marrin chuckles and points at him "He entertains me."
- [20:41] <TaloToecan> "As such, I see no reason why you should not accept Tirlerion's offer. Paladin, your games are not amusing, much less now."
- [20:41] <Tirlerion> Only if the teleportation were authorized or shielded
- [20:41] <&Ferret> (*Ronin)
- [20:42] <Tirlerion> Otherwise I suspect Marrin you find it redirected to the Council Prison
- [20:42] <Tirlerion> Where you would await charges of magic violation
- [20:42] <&Marrin> "Right. So no dematerialization then..."
- [20:42] <&Elenor> Tirlerion.. So does your protection mean we can use magic? Or not?
- [20:42] <&Marrin> "i'll remember that..."
- [20:43] <+Necro> Can you then legalize our abilities to use teleportation to come and go again?
- [20:43] <&Marrin> "now what is considered proper teleportation?"
- [20:43] <&Marrin> "Rather, authorized."
- [20:43] <Tirlerion> My protection means you can act more or less with the same immunity you did under Falerin
- [20:43] * Paladin_Of_Souls shrugs and taps his maul against the ground. "As one such man said, 'Chaos is my name, and Chaos is my game.' Choose of your own volitions, and if it matters to any, Tirlerion I ask for your protection since I cannot yet do much in said regard on Caelestia either."
- [20:43] <Tirlerion> Furthemore since I am feeling generous I will give those not here a one shot deal.
- [20:43] <Kiyodai> "Psh...I suppose I cannot practice my teleporting magic any more then.."
- [20:43] <Tirlerion> They will be protected even without asking
- [20:43] <Tirlerion> To cover their arrival
- [20:43] <Tirlerion> Thereupon the choice is up to them
- [20:44] * +Nick smiles at Tirlerion "Thankyou for that."
- [20:44] <&Marrin> "One last question, Tirlerion. What happens when or if Falerin regains his senses, or temper?"
- [20:44] <Tirlerion> Of course you can leave the bounds of the City and just teleport from there if you choose not to accept my ai
- [20:44] <Tirlerion> d
- [20:44] <Tirlerion> What happens in regard to what?
- [20:45] <+Kazuma> ...
- [20:45] * RoninOfDreams looks over at Tirlerion. "May I expect the aspects of Courtesy and Hospitality for such to apply to myself as well?"
- [20:45] <+Kazuma> WE can just leave the town?
- [20:45] <Tirlerion> Either he supplants me and restores what you have lost himself. Or he orders me to act continuously in his stead.
- [20:45] <+Kazuma> ...makes sense once I think about it
- [20:45] <Tirlerion> You are a Caelestian deity Ronin. You need no aid of mine.
- [20:45] <Kiyodai> "Tirlerion...may I ask for your protection?"
- [20:45] <Tirlerion> Though the terms of Collegiality of course remain
- [20:46] <&Elenor> Kiyo, you only have to ask, and you've got it.
- [20:46] <&Marrin> "I see no problem with this. I accept all of your terms."
- [20:46] <+Necro> Thank you for offering us the abilitiy to return to our homes then Tirlerion without fear of facing the authorities of the region
- [20:46] <RoninOfDreams> "Aid, no. It is merely more of a...professional courtesy, to expand such to cover instances of undue haste to circumvent another being implicated in my place. But, that is no real worry, regardless. "
- [20:46] * +LBB_LurkKing is humming merrily, busily drawing patterns in the tiny motes of dust floating in the air.
- [20:46] <&Marrin> "I have one small request, Tirlerion. Allow those who administer this place to continue to do so with the approval of yourself and the farpoint."
- [20:47] <Kiyodai> Very well then: I ask for your protection."
- [20:47] <Kiyodai> (('I))
- [20:48] * +Kazuma sighs, "hope Rom gets my message"
- [20:48] <+Kazuma> and poor Mat-err...Remus
- [20:49] * RoninOfDreams looks at the assembled, his eyes settling upon Talo and the Younger Damsel. "Have each of you accepted his offer, yet?"
- [20:50] * TaloToecan nods slowly, sighing heavily at concerns beyond just the offered. "I have."
- [20:50] <+Kazuma> I have, and The Rome myths have been sent word
- [20:50] <&Genoclysm> Actually I haven't yet, though I was asking about it a lot earlier.
- [20:50] * The younger Damsel also inclines her head in affirmation. "As have I."
- [20:51] <+Kazuma> if they DO pop up, I want to know so I can yell at them
- [20:51] <RoninOfDreams> "Do you lack means, then, or shall I take you with me back to Lore?"
- [20:51] <RoninOfDreams> "Do you lack means, then, or shall I take you with me back to Lore?"
- [20:52] * The younger Damsel looks at Talo. "Are... we to return to Lore then... or... do you feel we should remain with this family for the time being?"
- [20:52] <+Kazuma> oh, Tirlerion
- [20:52] <+Kazuma> What If I come back with somebody in tow
- [20:52] <+Kazuma> Are they safe too?
- [20:52] <&Elenor> Tirlerion... I'd like to thank you, greatly, for offering your protection.
- [20:53] * +Nick looks at Talo and the younger Damsel "We could use your help..."
- [20:53] <Tirlerion> Their arrival if caused by you is shielded. IF caused by them it is also shielded but only once.
- [20:53] * The younger Damsel looks at Nick with sad eyes. "So could they..."
- [20:53] * TaloToecan looks quite clearly and evidently torn. "I...cannot turn my back on my Sibkin either..."
- [20:53] <&Marrin> "This seems more than fair, however, judging by the circumstances."
- [20:54] * +Nick smiles "I understand, you don't need to say anymore..."
- [20:54] <+Kazuma> oh goody, I can bring DB back
- [20:54] <Tirlerion> Falerin is likely to take your absenting this place as further evidence of his dismay...
- [20:55] <+Kazuma> I'm just going to open a portal and peek in and tell him to enter once.
- [20:55] * The younger Damsel turns towards Tirlerion. "Aye, he might at that. But what of the other family that would be abandoned? Should they be disreguarded because of how he would perceve it? How does one chose one family over another?"
- [20:55] * TaloToecan glares at Tirlerion with mingled sadness and anger. "And what am I to do, then? Let my Brothers be killed? Or worse, kill in their own defense?"
- [20:55] <+Necro> Tirlerion, can I ask you something? How does one go about aquiring a permit to use magic within the confines of the city? I ask out of personal interest. Is it something only Caelestian Dieties can aquire and grant to their subordinates?
02: [20:55] * Kiyodai (lifelongin@Caelestia-C8F81CF0.balt.east.verizon.net) Quit (Exterminated: My father hates me.)
- [20:56] <Tirlerion> I am I fear not versed in their situation.
- [20:56] <+Kazuma> Oh god
- [20:56] <+Kazuma> Romulus will never return
- [20:56] <Tirlerion> Perhaps if I was better informed I could better offer you advice.
- [20:56] <+Kazuma> he's too stubborn to accept any help
- [20:56] <+Kazuma> ever
- [20:56] <+Kazuma> how he got a partner, I'll never know
- [20:57] <Tirlerion> And yet he accepted Falerin's own silently and by proxy
- [20:57] * D`Lila is now known as Angela
- [20:57] * The younger Damsel looks at Talo, knowing he is best to explain the situation.
- [20:57] <Tirlerion> How curious
- [20:57] * Angela (mistressli@Caelestia-188A9222.hsd1.pa.comcast.net) has left #darkabode
- [20:57] <&Marrin> (announcement: if you have accepted tirlerion's help, please pm me now)
- [20:57] * +Kazuma continues to read the scroll
- [20:57] * +Deathbringer fades into his normal spot, sitting, hood up.
- [20:57] <&Marrin> (we are compiling a list. That is all)
- [20:57] <+Kazuma> Careful DB
- [20:57] <+Kazuma> THat's your one shot
- [20:57] * +Deathbringer looks up, "Huh, Kaz?"
- [20:58] <&Elenor> DB... I would very strongly suggest you ask Tirlerion for protection, right now. Fal's revoked all protection on this place
- [20:58] <Tirlerion> Things have I fear changed Abyss Spawn
- [20:58] <+Kazuma> yeah, that
- [20:58] <+Deathbringer> Figures...protection, eh?
- [20:58] * som3dud33 (overdarim@Caelestia-48EBF091.nwrknj.east.verizon.net) has joined #darkabode
- [20:58] <&Elenor> And Tirlerion is offering protection to us... If you cast magic... The Fair Harbor won't like that at all.
- [20:58] <Tirlerion> And given your own nature your very presence is a bit problematic
- [20:58] <+Deathbringer> I see...
- [20:59] <Tirlerion> Demon Kind are not very welcome in Fair Harbour
- [20:59] * +Dusk sighs, "I would request your protection, Tirlerion."
- [20:59] <+Deathbringer> SO I guess I better ask for your protection then? I hate beening persecuted.
- [20:59] <Tirlerion> Your wish is my command
- [21:00] <+Deathbringer> I request your protection too, Tirlerion.
- [21:00] * Eitak_Razal (timesage@Caelestia-65A4F40A.hsd1.wv.comcast.net) has joined #darkabode

- [21:00] <&Elenor> Good choice.
- [21:00] <Tirlerion> Ooh Chronomantic Teleport
- [21:00] <Tirlerion> Even more dangerous
- [21:00] <Tirlerion> An offworld Chronomancer on Caelestia
- [21:] <Tirlerion> Without exception
- [21:] * TaloToecan growls as he does his best to give the short and sweet of it. "My Brothers are ranging, ignoring pacts made by my blood Father and harassing local hunters. More often than not preventing them from success, in what they more than likely see as wolven games. The Pack is in danger of souring the opinions of local outcrops and villages along Vizier Lake to the point of their demanding blood."
- [21:] <TaloToecan> "Rikshi cannot speak sense of them, and the Pack was made for defense of themselves and the Workshop. Blood will be spilled, if I do not act. And I will NOT. Abandon. My. Sibkin."
- [21:] <Tirlerion> Thats very bad
- [21:] * +Eitak_Razal appears.
- [21:] <+Eitak_Razal> Did someone mention me?
- [21:] <&Elenor> Eitak... Fal has revoked all protections on this place, Tirlerion is offering them in his place.
- [21:] <&Marrin> "And I also place myself in your service, Tirlerion, under the one condition that those who have aided here in the past, Such as Damse, and Barrius, continue their guardian duties of the abode."
- [21:] * +Eitak_Razal blinks.
- [21:] <&Elenor> If you use magic here... You'll be thrown in jail. Unless you ask Tirlerion for protection.
- [21:] <&Elenor> Including teleporting out.
- [21:] * +Eitak_Razal blinks.
- [21:02] <&Elenor> I'm dead serious.
- [21:02] <+Deathbringer> So...I'm now protected, right?
- [21:02] <&Elenor> Yeah.
- [21:02] <&Marrin> "So what you must do is of your OWN volition, ask for his aid."
- [21:02] <Tirlerion> Will they even answer to you if they fail to heed Rishiki?
- [21:02] <+Eitak_Razal> I guess I don't have much of a choice.
- [21:02] * +Necro shrugs. "Thanks for your advice Tirlerion... one more thing, what exactly are you getting out of this entire deal? Or are you just showing liberality?"
- [21:02] * +Deathbringer lets out a sigh of relief.
- [21:02] <+Nick> You always have a choice Eitak.
- [21:] <&Marrin> "ah yes, that reminds me. Tirlerion, what if someone rejects and wishes to leave, may they leave unhindered?"
- [21:] <+Eitak_Razal> Oh yeah, either ask Someone I dislike for their protection, or get thrown in jail...
- [21:] <+Kazuma> sounds fun, no
- [21:] <Tirlerion> Life is full of choices Eitak
- [21:] <+Kazuma> I trust him...
- [21:] <Tirlerion> To be fair you have an alternative
- [21:] <+Eitak_Razal> Geee, who knew being a seeker would be so Glamourous...
- [21:] <Tirlerion> Leave the bounds of Fair Harbour
- [21:04] <Tirlerion> You may teleport away from caelestia freely there
- [21:04] <Tirlerion> But you may not thereupon return to the abode
- [21:04] <+Eitak_Razal> Thats not a choice then.
- [21:04] <Tirlerion> And that answer contains my answer to you as well Marrin
- [21:04] <&Marrin> "Yes, it does. And to my other request?"
- [21:04] * +Nick sighs "Eitak do you not pay attention, its still a choice. You still have a choice."
- [21:05] <Tirlerion> I will compel noone
- [21:05] <Tirlerion> If their departure causes of revocation of your request
- [21:05] <Tirlerion> So be it
- [21:05] <+Eitak_Razal> I'll accept your offer of protection, Tirlerion, but first can someone tell me WHY this is happening.
- [21:05] * TaloToecan 's growl deepens slightly. "They will respect their eldest either by Seniority or by the fact that I can put them into their place. Hadin never feared them, for he knew how to dismantle them even with magic that they otherwise would be resistant to. Highly so. I would have them hate me, if I must, but I will see them live without blood of innocents staining them. That is something even Rikshi is not capable of."
- [21:05] <&Marrin> "I meant to the request that those such as Durroth, Barrius, and Damsel remaining in power."
- [21:] <&Elenor> Humm?
- [21:] <Tirlerion> "I have no knoweldge of your internal structure"
- [21:] * +Eitak_Razal sinks into a chair. "Can someone please just explain whats going on..."
- [21:] <Tirlerion> "I have no intention of altering it"
- [21:] <&Elenor> Fal is really pissed at us.
- [21:] <&Marrin> "Then it remains in place?"
- [21:] * +Necro walks over to Eitak, and pulls her aside to explain what happened
- [21:] <Tirlerion> "As I understand it... such concerns Arch-Rocare are the source of this problem"
- [21:] * +Dusk curls up on the chair beside the window, slowly falling asleep.
- [21:07] * +Eitak_Razal is pulled aside by Necro.
- [21:07] <&Marrin> "No.. the source of this problem is internal struggle. At least from what I have heard."
- [21:07] <Tirlerion> Concern for who is in power. What do you mean by power?
- [21:07] <&Marrin> "Consequentialy, Falerin is... What was it you said, elenor, pissed?"
- [21:07] <&Marrin> "Those who safeguard this place."
- [21:07] <Tirlerion> Perhaps you are refering to something I do not comprehend.
- [21:07] <&Marrin> "well.. to an extent."
- [21:08] <Tirlerion> You all safeguard this place.
- [21:08] <Tirlerion> But how you govern yourselves
- [21:08] <Tirlerion> Is none of my concern
- [21:08] <&Marrin> "I understand your meaning."
- [21:09] <+LBB_LurkKing> Eh, it's because some people can throw others out by making a melodramatic speech and gesture.
- [21:10] <+LBB_LurkKing> That, or they stole somebody's mayonase.
- [21:10] <+LBB_LurkKing> Mmm...mayonase...
- [21:10] <&Elenor> Huh?
- [21:10] <&Marrin> "Its an internal government. I merely ask if the authority and power may stay in place."
- [21:11] * TaloToecan leans into the younger Damsel gently, losing some of the fire that is driving him. "Rikshi is the youngest, and has done little to nothing to earn the Pack's respect. I should not expect them to have ever really listened to him. Blood calls to blood, and my blood Family is just as important to me as my Family here. Falerin ought to know that by now."
- [21:11] <Tirlerion> Just as important Talo? Or pehaps more important?
- [21:11] * The younger Damsel gently places an arm about Talo's shoulders, trying to support him.
- [21:12] <YoungerDamsel> "How can one place value on these sorts of relationships?"
- [21:12] <Tirlerion> Easily Damsel
- [21:12] <Tirlerion> Suppose It was said outright that if talo aids his lorian family then this one is doomed
- [21:12] * +Dusk (sbbank45@Caelestia-D0C14942.ipt.aol.com) has left #darkabode
- [21:13] <Tirlerion> Which then does he choose
- [21:13] * TaloToecan frowns at Tirlerion. "I would bring them here, if it mattered, but they would never wish to stay. And I would not bind them so.'
- [21:13] <Tirlerion> Which ever he chooses he cares about more
- [21:13] * The younger Damsel shudders. "That... is a horrible choice to have to face."
- [21:14] <Tirlerion> And yet it is one that members of families have in fact been forced to face countless times in countless worlds
- [21:14] * &Marrin nods in agreement, memories flashing
- [21:14] <Tirlerion> And may well be faced with countless more before the cycle finally ends
- [21:15] <Tirlerion> They say that Blood is thicker then water.
- [21:15] <som3dud33> But oil is thinker than both :P
- [21:15] <Tirlerion> Some say however that choice is thicker then blood.
- [21:15] <Tirlerion> Or oil as you wish
02: [21:15] * som3dud33 (overdarim@Caelestia-48EBF091.nwrknj.east.verizon.net) Quit (Interred: )
- [21:15] <Tirlerion> Though Choice is more apt here
- [21:15] * TaloToecan clenches a fist and bites down on his lip, restraining himself from raging at the indignity of such and daring to apply it here. He tastes the copper, and feels the slickness, though his body works not on blood alone but a mixture instead.
- [21:16] * +Nick sighs "Having to do this..."
- [21:16] <Tirlerion> Why would they choose not to stay here Talo? Is there something wrong with this plane of which I am unaware?
- [21:16] * The younger Damsel holds Talo tighter even though her body shakes.
- [21:16] * +Eitak_Razal turns away from Necro and walks to her seat.
- [21:17] <Tirlerion> I mean certainly I can see them not wishing to remain in this dwelling
- [21:17] <&Marrin> "Well.. there's this awful draft... something about breaking a wall all the time."
- [21:17] <Tirlerion> But there are vast wildernesses here where wolves could act without impunity
- [21:17] <+Nick> And the roof leaks sometimes...
- [21:17] * +Necro nods to Eitak, and punches some buttons on his PDA, and teleports out, a look of seroius thinking on his face
02: [21:17] * +Necro (ultrapower@1E71D84C.F80C5742.FB243B6.IP) Quit (Suppressed: )
- [21:17] <Tirlerion> I am quite sure there are even such upon Lore... for that matter
- [21:17] * +Eitak_Razal frowns. "I don't like this one bit..."
- [21:18] <Tirlerion> More distant from human settlement
- [21:18] * TaloToecan speaks deadly low. "They would choose to return to Lore, and desire to. For the Pack, it is those forests they have lived, those forests in which they hunt. For Rikshi...this is a novelty. A place to visit, but not a Home."
- [21:18] <Tirlerion> So they are mindless
- [21:19] * TaloToecan grimaces and stares at Tirlerion. "You...DARE...insult my Sibkin?!"
- [21:19] * +Nick looks at Talo "And yet...You've probably made some of the deepest bonds here have you not?"
- [21:19] <Tirlerion> Insult?
- [21:19] <Tirlerion> Have I done so?/
- [21:19] <Tirlerion> The fact is that they are either sapient or they are not.
- [21:19] <Tirlerion> Sapient creatures will accept Logic and Rationale.
- [21:19] <Tirlerion> Non sapient ones will not
- [21:20] <TaloToecan> "They are FAR from Mindless. They are NO LESS Mindless than I am. They FEEL their CALLINGS, and it keeps them where they DESIRE."
- [21:20] <&Marrin> "hmm... Ever hear of Republicans, Tirlerion?"
- [21:20] <Tirlerion> If they are not sapient then they are animals
- [21:20] <Tirlerion> Mindless
- [21:20] <Tirlerion> My distinction of the mind begins and ends at sapience Talo-Toecan
- [21:20] * +Eitak_Razal pulls out red rose. She starts pulling petals off and dropping them onto the floor at her feet.
- [21:20] <Tirlerion> Animal instinct does not qualify
- [21:20] <TaloToecan> "It is not instinct which drives them, Tirlerion."
- [21:21] <TaloToecan> "You estimate them poorly."
- [21:21] <+Eitak_Razal> What does this conversation have to with anything?
- [21:21] <Tirlerion> I estimate them poorly
- [21:21] <Tirlerion> Perhaps
- [21:21] <+Eitak_Razal> I would think we have bigger things to worry about...
- [21:21] <Tirlerion> However my estimation is based on the fact that logic is ALWAYS superior to instinct
- [21:22] <TaloToecan> "And what do you think I would be using to dissuade them from their current actions?"
- [21:22] <Tirlerion> Force
- [21:22] <YoungerDamsel> "So quality of life is based entirely upon how much one can reason?"
- [21:22] <Tirlerion> You intimated as much yourself
- [21:22] <Tirlerion> I did not say anysuch thing Damsel
- [21:22] <Tirlerion> Quality of Mind... yes
- [21:22] <Tirlerion> Quality or indeed as you were actually implying Value
- [21:22] <Tirlerion> No
- [21:23] <Tirlerion> Valuations are personal only
- [21:23] <Tirlerion> They cannot be given to some objective measure
- [21:23] * Romulus (romulus777@Caelestia-63732337.no.no.cox.net) has joined #darkabode
- [21:23] * Enmity sets mode: +v Romulus
- [21:23] <"Then> I'm not certain I see why you are arguing this line. If you are trying to convince Talo to remain here because the pack has no logic..."
- [21:23] <Tirlerion> If your kin cannot convince them purely because she is young. They are not showing logic.
- [21:23] <&Damsel> ((youngerDamsel))
02: [21:24] * +Kazuma (romulus777@Caelestia-63732337.no.no.cox.net) Quit (Connection reset by peer)
- [21:24] <Tirlerion> Why would I be trying to do that?/////////
- [21:24] <Tirlerion> ((Falerin takes a hammer to his keyboard))
- [21:24] <TaloToecan> "Force...is the last resort. The disrespect Rikshi for Rikshi can do nothing in their eyes. He is worthless, and his opinion is disregarded by the pack regardless of the logic he brings. It would be like a peasant trying to convince a King, the *preconceptions* get in the way."
- [21:24] <+Eitak_Razal> ((XD))
- [21:24] * The younger Damsel shakes her head. "I am not certain. Which is what caused the question in the first place."
- [21:25] <+LBB_LurkKing> ((I've been there, Fal. -.- ))
- [21:25] <Tirlerion> Ah... so they are rational creatures then
- [21:25] <Tirlerion> Good.
- [21:25] * Tirlerion gestures and vanishes
- [22:19] * Tirlerion reappears
- [22:19] <&Elenor> Greetings, Tirlerion.
- [22:19] * &Marrin instinctively pulls a cup of tea out of the air and has his arm stretched out in tirlerion's direction
- [22:19] <&Marrin> "Forgot, I offered you this last time."
- [22:19] <Tirlerion> He already said he did
- [22:20] <Tirlerion> No need to get into technicalities
- [22:20] <&Marrin> "that's enough for you? Fair enough."
- [22:20] * Tirlerion takes the cup
- [22:20] * Tirlerion sips thoughtfull
- [22:20] <Tirlerion> No why did I go and do a thing like that I wonder
- [22:20] <Tirlerion> Where is Useless
- [22:21] <+Nick> Hey...hey, got any crumpets? I wasn't joking earlier, if we're having a tea party...
- [22:21] <Tirlerion> I am no baker.
- [22:21] <&Marrin> "I offered Tirlerion tea a while back."
- [22:21] <&Marrin> "I had just now remembered."
- [22:21] <Tirlerion> That is one treat you shall I fear have to live without
- [22:21] <&Marrin> "Hmm.. I seem to recall owing Diviara a cup as well.."
- [22:21] * +Nick sighs "Ah well..."
- [22:21] <Tirlerion> Unless of course you want me to provide immunity
- [22:21] <Tirlerion> While you Rob a bakery
- [22:21] <Tirlerion> Something I will happily and gladly do
- [22:22] <&Marrin> "There.. er.. is a kitchen for that."
- [22:22] * +Nick smiles "Total Immunity?"
- [22:22] * Tirlerion smiles wickedly
- [22:22] * TaloToecan is still standing with the Younger Damsel, curbing his emotions to successively lesser levels of threat of outburst.
- [22:22] * &Marrin shrugs "Hell, I'd be amused."
- [22:22] <Tirlerion> Naturally
- [22:22] * Tirlerion turns to Marrin
- [22:22] <Tirlerion> "As for the Kitchen"
- [22:22] <Tirlerion> "Where in the 9 hells is the fun in that"
- [22:22] <+Nick> I'll take you up on that offer, just show me the bakery...
- [22:23] <&Marrin> "OBviously, Tirlerion, you have never enjoyed the sight of missapplied magic in the culinary arts."
- [22:23] <+Kazuma> it's plenty fun when you blow the thing up
- [22:23] <Tirlerion> I somehow supsect that such will not endear falerin to you
- [22:23] <TaloToecan> "I have not been called by that name in some time, Tirlerion. Should I be concerned that your searching for me bodes ill given that useage?"
- [22:24] <&Marrin> "When toasters pop out random foodstuff that was not put in there, hilarity does ensue."
- [22:24] <Tirlerion> "It bodes only what you make of it"
- [22:24] <&Marrin> "Though sometimes people do want their bagel back..."
- [22:24] <Tirlerion> "Before you decide what you wish to do... consult Rikshi"
- [22:24] <+Kazuma> oh, Tirlerion, I'll steal from that bakery..."
- [22:25] * TaloToecan tries to draw strength from the Younger Damsel's continued supportive embrace. "Ah...I suppose I shall, then." With such, he closes his eyes, in an effort to help facilitate such cross-realm telepathic communication.
- [22:25] <+Nick> I will too...
- [22:25] <Tirlerion> "Well then"
- [22:25] <+Nick> I seriously want those crumpets.
- [22:25] * &Marrin chuckles
- [22:25] <Tirlerion> "We have armed robbery to engage in"
- [22:26] <Tirlerion> Let us leave
- [22:26] * +Nick smiles "Aye, Captain!"
- [22:26] * Tirlerion turns and walks out the front entrance
- [22:26] <&Marrin> "Armed? Whatever happened to being covert..."
- [22:26] <+Kazuma> ...
- [22:26] <+Kazuma> Armed? No thanks
- [22:26] <+Kazuma> I'm like a ninja
- [22:26] * +Nick follows Tirlerion most hastily.
- [22:26] * &Ryei follows Tirlerion
- [22:26] <Tirlerion> "Oh well you can be stealthy too... We will provide additional distraction"
- [22:26] * Tirlerion hands a Ski Mask to Nick
- [22:26] * +Kazuma follows, "I was just joking, anyway...oh fine..."
- [22:27] <Tirlerion> "You will be needing this"
- [22:27] * &Marrin laughs at that. "I am so coming as an observer. I *HAVE* to see this."
- [22:27] * +Nick looks at it and takes it and puts it on.
- [22:27] <&Ryei> ...
- [22:27] * TaloToecan murmurs in several successively louder notions of surprise, then looks at Tirlerion leaving critically. "This...is irony of the highest order. I...thank you. For your role in that...though...it is hard to lose a Brother so thoroughly."
- [22:27] <&Ryei> I somehow doubt armed robbery will particularly please Falerin either
- [22:27] <&Ryei> or covert robbery
- [22:27] <&Ryei> or ANY kind of crime
- [22:27] * Tirlerion turns and looks at Talo
- [22:27] <+Kazuma> ...you're right
- [22:27] <Tirlerion> "He chose"
- [22:27] <+Kazuma> Darn
- [22:27] <Tirlerion> "I doubt even you would have done any better"
- [22:28] <+Nick> Aye, I did...Lets go get those crumpets, maybe a nice roll too.
- [22:28] * Elenor grins, and follows Tirlerion.
- [22:28] * Tirlerion frowns and turn back down the steps
- [22:28] <+Kazuma> Oh goodness
- [22:28] <+Kazuma> Do I go, or do I stay...
- [22:28] * +Nick follows without hesitation.
- [22:28] * TaloToecan shrugs and leans more heavily into the Younger Damsel regardless.
- [22:28] <+Kazuma> I'll watch
- [22:28] * +Kazuma follows.
- [22:28] <+Kazuma> and If you do too horribly, I'll help
- [22:28] <Tirlerion> A family that robs together stays together
- [22:29] <+Nick> Aye!
- [22:29] * Tirlerion turn to Ryei
- [22:29] * +Nick seems a little too happy for this.
- [22:29] <Tirlerion> "You do not even exist in this continuity"
- [22:29] <Tirlerion> "Now be quiet before I drag you into this multiverse fully"
- [22:30] * Tirlerion smirks and continues down the road
- [22:30] <&Marrin> "I kinda like that logic.."
- [22:30] <&Ryei> ((Sorry, Durroth was saying that))
- [22:30] * Elenor continues following. "I have to see this..."
- [22:30] <Tirlerion> And as for you Durroth
- [22:30] * Tirlerion laughs without turning arround
- [22:31] <Durroth> I know I'm going to regret this
- [22:31] <Tirlerion> "Falerin against robbery or any sort of crime?"
- [22:31] <Tirlerion> "He may be not particularly evil in a general sense"
- [22:31] <Tirlerion> "But how in the hell do you think he got the job to begin with"
- [22:31] * Tirlerion laughs merilly
- [22:31] <+Kazuma> ...
- [22:31] <Durroth> changes, becoming taller, more muscular looking, and blonde
- [22:31] <+Kazuma> And now I'm helping again
- [22:31] * +Nick joins in.
- [22:32] * Durroth changes, becoming taller, more muscular looking, and blonde*
- [22:32] <&Ryei> ((Action damnit, action!))
- [22:32] * Tirlerion walks down a series of side streets
- [22:32] * Durroth reconsiders and makes himself shorter
- [22:32] * +Nick is still following "Oh good plan, we have to avoid attention."
- [22:33] * Elenor is probably attracting a lot of attention, dressed as she is and carrying weapons and all.
- [22:33] <+Kazuma> I'm suddenly wish that I had read up on magical masks so as not to be seen
- [22:33] * +Nick would think walking in a ski mask would earn just a little more.
- [22:33] <+Kazuma> not with my real face
- [22:33] * Tirlerion casts knock on the door of a large commercial bakery which is clearly closed but in the middle of baking the next days goods
- [22:33] <&Elenor> ((More than a kimono and a bastard sword? o_o))
- [22:34] <Tirlerion> "Ooh ultra fresh"
- [22:34] <+Kazuma> aha!
- [22:34] * Tirlerion gestures and changes apperance to a dark haired human with a greased handlebar mustache
- [22:34] <+Kazuma> Can you help me out too?
- [22:34] <+Kazuma> A mask or something, at least
- [22:34] * &Marrin is sitting on the roof of the building across the street looking on with mirth
- [22:34] <+Puddles> " 'K, so I'm not illegal and I can leave and return when needed?"
- [22:34] * Tirlerion gestures and Kazuma is attired in very stereotypical TV ninja clothing
- [22:34] * +Nick smiles "Lets do this..."
- [22:35] * Tirlerion enters the shop
- [22:35] * Elenor is just walking with them, trying not to laugh.
- [22:35] * Tirlerion brandishes a large submachine gun
- [22:35] * Tirlerion fires several rounds into the ceiling
- [22:35] * Baker screechs
- [22:35] * &Marrin laughs suddenly, nearly falling over
- [22:35] * +Kazuma ninjas off to the roof.
- [22:35] * +Nick rubs his hands together and smashes through the window like the terminator! "Allright! Put all the crumpets in the bag!"
- [22:36] <&Marrin> ("This is a stickup..see?, nyah" XD)
- [22:36] * +Kazuma crawls through the vents
- [22:36] <+Nick> ((XD))
- [22:36] <+Kazuma> ((XD))
- [22:36] * Elenor cannot hold in her laughter anymore.
- [22:36] <+Puddles> ((XD))
- [22:36] <Tirlerion> "We have come for your pastries. Give us your crumpets and scones and nobody gets hurt!"
- [22:36] <Tirlerion> "No no no... none of that cash stuff"
- [22:36] <Tirlerion> "I have plenty of that"
- [22:36] <+Puddles> "And if you don't, we'll take them anyways!"
- [22:37] * +Nick looks at Baker "You think we're joking!" points to Tirlerion "He's crazy! He'll shoot you! Now just give us the baked goods!"
- [22:37] <Tirlerion> "The SCONES"
- [22:37] * +Kazuma appears behind the bakers, "Do it now!"
- [22:37] * Elenor is laughing too hard to say anything.
- [22:37] * &Marrin is practically roaring in laugher
- [22:37] * Tirlerion fires several more rounds into the ceiling
- [22:37] <Baker> But...
- [22:37] <&Marrin> "Brilliant.. bloody brilliant."
- [22:37] * +Kazuma broke the vents to get out, by the way
- [22:37] <+Nick> No buts!
- [22:37] <&Marrin> "Now all he has to do is pay for em, and my day is made."
- [22:37] * Baker loads several trays into a bag
- [22:37] * &Marrin hollars across the street "Dont forget to thank them for their time!"
- [22:38] * +Kazuma sticks a finger in one of the bakers backs, hoping he thinks it's a gun
- [22:38] <+Nick> Thats right! Thats right...oh and can you throw a couple of bagets in there too? That'd be real nice of you.
- [22:38] <Tirlerion> (in an affected english accent) "Jolly good and I do say sir.. throw in some of those petit fours too.... I hear they are the best in the city"
- [22:38] <&Ryei> ... maybe some sourdough rolls please?
- [22:38] <&Ryei> ((Durroth*))
- [22:38] <+Nick> You heard the man Sourdough rolls stat!
- [22:38] <&Marrin> "Oi! El! Can you get me a danish?"
- [22:38] <+Kazuma> Now!
- [22:39] * +Nick sighs "Anything else!?"
- [22:39] <Tirlerion> "Lets not get greedy now gents"
- [22:39] <+Kazuma> you got it.
- [22:39] <Tirlerion> Tally ho Guvernor
- [22:39] * +Kazuma climbs through the vents back to the roof
- [22:39] * +Nick nods "Lets blow this...baker stand!"
- [22:39] * Tirlerion walks back ot of the shop
- [22:39] * &Marrin snickers
- [22:39] <&Marrin> "Bow... bow..."
- [22:39] * +Nick jumps out an unbroken window this time with the goods.
- [22:39] <+Puddles> "Whheeeee... Free... Bread? hax."
- [22:40] * Baker looks out the door
- [22:40] * +Kazuma returns to the ground level, be it jump or portal. who cares?
- [22:40] * &Ryei walks out of the shop
- [22:40] <&Ryei> ((Durroth*))
- [22:40] <Durroth> Thankyou for your time!
- [22:40] * Elenor was just hanging around the entrance observing from outside.
- [22:40] <+Kazuma> I feel so free, man
- [22:40] * +Nick nods "We'll be back next time! Great doing business with you!" he yells back.
- [22:40] <Tirlerion> About right now he is wondering how he was robbed... Since in a free good economy we could have had anything we wanted for free anyway
- [22:40] <Tirlerion> Since nothing he sells are imports
- [22:41] * Tirlerion laughs
- [22:41] <Durroth> ... okay, that was officially insane
- [22:41] * Tirlerion walks back to the house
- [22:41] * &Marrin waves his hand and makes sure the bakery's windows are repaired
- [22:41] <+Puddles> "No, that was a nice dose of Chaos."
- [22:41] * +Nick laughs "But it wouldn't have been fun that way" and heads back to the abode with their hard earned loot.
- [22:41] <+Kazuma> Perfect!
- [22:41] <+Kazuma> oh yes!
- [22:41] <Durroth> indeed it was, I forgot how fun chaos can be sometimes, I'm an embarassment as a shapeshifter
- [22:41] <Tirlerion> "He is debating calling the police"
- [22:41] <&Elenor> Wow, I really needed that laugh.
- [22:41] <+Kazuma> Ahahaha!
- [22:41] <Tirlerion> "Eventually he will decide they would think him mad"
- [22:41] * &Ryei heads back toward the house
- [22:42] <Tirlerion> "And so he will do no such thing"
- [22:42] <&Ryei> ((Durroth*))
- [22:42] <+Nick> Oh well, it was totally worth it, and I got my crumpets eh?
- [22:42] * Tirlerion opens the door and enters the estate
- [22:42] * &Marrin walks along the side
- [22:42] <+Kazuma> gimmie one!
- [22:42] <&Marrin> "That.. was most definately amusing."
- [22:42] * +Nick enters and puts the bag down on a table.
- [22:42] <+LBB_LurkKing> How'd it go, fellas?
- [22:42] * &Elenor follows him.
- [22:42] <+Puddles> "GOLD!"
- [22:43] * +Nick pulls off the ski mask, his grin couldn't be bigger "Baked goods for all!"
- [22:43] <&Marrin> "Most entertaining."
- [22:43] <+Puddles> "GOLDEN... Bread."
- [22:43] * &Elenor grins.
- [22:43] <+Kazuma> heck yeah!
- [22:43] <+Kazuma> we won!
- [22:43] * +LBB_LurkKing skitters out from under the couch, laughing madly. "You don't say!"
- [22:43] <Tirlerion> "Ill gotten gains"
- [22:43] <&Marrin> "hmm.. We did leave the townsfolk with none.."
- [22:43] <+LBB_LurkKing> Big T, you're a hoot.
- [22:43] <Tirlerion> "I would not take your blood money and I wont take your blood biscuits either"
- [22:44] * +Nick pulls a crumpet out of the bag and begins eating it "Maybe we should offer the Baker to join our Baked-goods eating?
- [22:44] <+Nick> "
- [22:44] <Tirlerion> "But I will have one of those Petit fours"
- [22:44] <Tirlerion> "They really are the best in the city"
