A Nifty New Label

From Caelwiki

[15:13] * Arden enters from the Terrace Gate

[15:13] Arden: The fact is that we have to address this manner in a direct fashion. Index the entire list according to profitability. Will you take care of the unpleasantness with Dariel while you are at it, as I asked you to already? Shine my shoes and I will shine yours, Hermit. On a more pleasant note I think some progress has been made on the other front. The dinner is on as promised but I urge you proceed slowly. Heels are best cooled before

[15:13] * Arden climbs the stairs

[15:14] Rimblade: "Bingo! Let's go to the widdershins of the matter, folks!"

[15:14] * Fulcan digs in his pocket for the two coins, places the silver on the gold, and mutters, "Fiennyl."

[15:14] * Fulcan vanishes with a loud CRACK.

[15:14] * Lkeas lifts her gaze out of the notebook as she watches Arden ascend the stairs. "Dinner? List? Index...? What progress..?"

[15:14] FrogPlushie: Hermit the frog?

[15:14] * Lkeas shakes her head. "I rarely know what he's going on about."

[15:14] FrogPlushie: Or Mariel?

[15:14] Lkeas: I would assume Mariel.

[15:14] FrogPlushie: Wait, don't tell me. No god but Eldron!

[15:14] Fulcan: ( Falerin: Cut of at- Heels are best cooled before--- )

[15:15] Grett: ((Fulcan, he was gaining distance...))

[15:15] Grett: ((The cutoff seems perfectly logical.))

[15:15] * Nick mutters slowly without thinking about it "The Index Will Shine On The Heels..."

[15:15] Rimblade: "Geeheheheeh. Cross the hermit's hand with gold, if all you want is future told. Cross it then with silver too, unless you'd like predictions blue."

[15:15] Fulcan: ( Oh, never mind. )

[15:15] Lkeas: ((oh sure, try to explain it away with LOGIC))

[15:15] Fulcan: ( logic bites. )

[15:15] Nick: ((Nice messagery Fal ~.^))

[15:16] Grett: Frog, you mean that Terran puppet character?

[15:16] Grett: I believe that is Kermit, not Hermit.

[15:16] * TaloToecan yawns and stretches lightly on the backing of a couch. "Intriguing, is it not?"

[15:17] Rimblade: "Is what?"

[15:17] * Arden descends the stairs

[15:17] Arden: Of that you can be most certain. Creation of the list will at help at the very least.

[15:17] * Lkeas nods to TaloToecan. "I wonder what list he was talking about. And what is on it that is profitable.."

[15:17] * Nick looks up "Hmm..."

[15:17] * Arden enters the kitchen

[15:17] * Brink wakes up, he stretches and stands rather calmly before walking to then leaning against a couch.

[15:18] TaloToecan: "It may be as simple as a...guest list. A dinner, after all."

[15:18] Rimblade: "Funeral."

[15:18] Nick: Or something more...

[15:18] * Lkeas shakes her head again, a bit bewildered, and follows Arden into the kitchen, attempting to appear nonchalant. She makes to search for some bread.

[15:19] * TaloToecan merely spreads his senses far and twitches his whiskers softly.

[15:20] * Nick scratches his chin and begins thinking

[15:20] Rimblade: "Isn't it? Anyway, happenstances aside, Mr. Talo, have you been keeping busy?"

[15:20] * Elaith scratches his head, thoroughly confused at Arden's words.

[15:22] * Nick begins muttering again "Its not what he said...its the way he said it..."

[15:23] * TaloToecan licks his paws and begins to clean off his muzzle with them.

[15:25] * Eitak_Razal looks up from her laptop "Hmm? Did I miss something?"

[15:26] * Rimblade executes a sudden flip in the air, and a large silver coin soars into the air. It rotates three times and falls back down towards Rimblade, where it vanishes.

[15:30] * Nick shrugs and sinks back into his chair "Maybe much more..."

[15:31] * Lkeas returns to the common room with a chunk of bread in her hands and her mouth full. She shrugs and returns to her seat.

[15:31] * Fulcan-[Away] appears, pockets the coins, and vanishes.

[15:32] Lkeas: ((what coins? the one that disappeared?))

[15:32] FrogPlushie: ((No, Rimblade's tellycoins.))

[15:33] Eitak_Razal: •;[

[15:33] Deathbringer: ((Yar))

[15:33] FrogPlushie: Razal, what is •;[?

[15:34] Rimblade: ((Tellycoin -_-))

[15:35] * Lkeas looks over the notebook as she snacks. "Anyway, like I was saying, they're not such bad people. I think we'd get along quite well. I may have made a bit of progress... just wonder if it'd be possible to draw their discussion into the main forum so we can work together.."

[15:35] Deathbringer: Who aren't bad people?

[15:36] * FrogPlushie floats silently slowly regenerating his seems and stitches, which seem to have torn after being used to blow down a wall.

[15:36] Rimblade: "I betcha it's the extremists she's so razzled over."

[15:36] Deathbringer: Extremists?

[15:36] * Lkeas holds up the notebook, the cover of which is inscribed "Hellseekers."

[15:36] FrogPlushie: Deathbringer would wuv'em.

[15:36] Deathbringer: Hellseekers? IF they are seeking hell... are they devils?

[15:36] Nick: Like I said, the Hellseekers aren't a threat at all...

[15:37] Lkeas: Well, they didn't really think much about their name except they wanted that sounded cool. Kinda like how I named the Encyclopedia because I wanted it to sound academic... even though it's not really an encyclopedia at all.

[15:37] * Dyn is.

[15:37] * Dyn is thirsty.

[15:38] Deathbringer: Oh okay... so they aren't devils?

[15:38] Rimblade: "Weeeellll...."

[15:38] Lkeas: No, not at all.

[15:38] Rimblade: "What ARE they about?"

[15:38] Lkeas: They just want to do some seeking from a different point of view.

[15:38] Eitak_Razal: ((Ignore the symbols

[15:38] Nick: They're just ignorant...

[15:38] Deathbringer: Oh good. Devils and I don't get along.

[15:38] Eitak_Razal: ((My key board is messed up on my pc and i'm tryinkg to fix it

[15:38] Rimblade: "Shut up, Nick. What point of veiw?"

[15:39] Lkeas: They saw us starting to speak in union about almost every topic we came across, and they wanted to encourage discussion from other perspectives.

[15:39] Lkeas: Which is something I applaud, actually.

[15:39] Rimblade: "Quite. Devil's advocate."

[15:39] TaloToecan: "Then we should let them continue to do so, and collaborrate where beneficial."

[15:39] Rimblade: "Which can, on occasion, be a bad idea, really."

[15:39] * Lkeas nods.

[15:39] Lkeas: A little healthy debate never hurt anybody.

[15:40] Lkeas: As they do more research they'll become quite knowledgeable partners.

[15:40] Nick: Not when they refuse to listen to reason, I've talked with some of them, and they're completely delusional about some topics...

[15:40] Dyn: "Unless it transcends that."

[15:40] Deathbringer: Aye.

[15:40] * Brink stretchs again, his ears twitch and rotate slightly towards the group.

[15:40] Dyn: "Milord Nick, did these ones represent the group?"

[15:40] * Lkeas shrugs towards Nick. "It's not as if we have never been stubborn about certain things ourselves.."

[15:41] *** Clyde has signed off IRC (Ping timeout).

[15:41] FrogPlushie: Yeah, well. The name sounds silly.

[15:41] FrogPlushie: So says Mr. Low Sanity.

[15:41] * Lkeas grins and holds open the notebook, where her handwriting is apparent in later entries. "I took the liberty of offering to assist them should they need access to any information."

[15:41] Rimblade: "Egads!"

[15:41] Nick: One helped start the little group...Sure they don't speak for the whole, but it seems they banded together for a reason.

[15:42] Dyn: "Perfection has never been prerequisite to anything."

[15:42] Lkeas: I know they can get a bit overzealous when they feel they're on a roll...

[15:42] FrogPlushie: Wait, don't WE do that?

[15:42] Lkeas: But at least they seem to be attempting to read.

[15:42] Elaith: We get the same way on occasion.

[15:42] FrogPlushie: Or you, rather.

[15:43] FrogPlushie: 'Cause I'm just a doll.

[15:43] Eitak_Razal: The hell seekers eh?

[15:43] Lkeas: They are not the complacent people that The'Galin despises so much.

[15:43] * Nick shrugs "Whatever..."

[15:43] * Eitak_Razal types something into her laptop

[15:43] Lkeas: Or... lukewarm, as the booth tenant accused me of being...

[15:44] Dyn: "The all-knowing booth tenant?"

[15:44] * Lkeas chuckles. "The same."

[15:44] Dyn: "Omniscient and all-wise, eh?"

[15:45] FrogPlushie: Well... Are they trying to kill us?

[15:45] Lkeas: Well, I dunno about omniscient.. but he did know just what to say..

[15:45] * Eitak_Razal gasps

[15:46] * Eitak_Razal reads a quote from her laptop "looks to me like as a group the "Truth Seekers" are willingly serving The'Galin even if they do in fact do so for a rather different reason then the average agent. They were presented with a means of ending his godhood and destroying the network and they not only rejected it they reversed it willfully."

[15:46] Dyn: "Accept guidance as guidance. End of story."

[15:46] Lkeas: Nah, although on this page here it mentioned someone wanting to humiliate the truth seekers... I dunno. I don't think they want to destroy us outright though.

[15:47] * TaloToecan wonders idly if he is still inadvertantly logged into the Laptop

[15:47] * Nick laughs

[15:47] Dyn: "Frankly, Eitak, would we want to end his godhood and destroy his network, even if we could do so prematurely?"

[15:47] Eitak_Razal: Hmmm

[15:47] * Eitak_Razal shrugs

[15:47] Rimblade: "I would want him to bring me ice cream."

[15:47] Eitak_Razal: I'm just reading what the screen says

[15:48] Lkeas: I think that's what they'd hoped we would have done.

[15:48] * Eitak_Razal nods

[15:48] Eitak_Razal: They don't understand we can't do that.

[15:48] Dyn: "To wit. Understanding is never complete, eh wot?"

[15:48] FrogPlushie: I say if they aren't trying to stab us we ignore them.

[15:49] Lkeas: But I mean... they seem to just be a few steps behind us on the journey. When we started out we were all gung-ho about trying to stop him too, right?

[15:49] *** BusyFerret has signed off IRC (Ping timeout).

[15:49] Nick: They also believe The'Galin can be killed, but eh...

[15:49] Rimblade: "Nope."

[15:49] TaloToecan: "Progress takes time, as does understanding."

[15:49] Eitak_Razal: Strange. I can't find any information on the hell seekers by going through the normal channel...

[15:49] Rimblade: "I recall stating that we shouldn't destroy him, loads of times."

[15:49] Rimblade: "I guess my wisdom just knows no bounds."

[15:50] Dyn: "I believe you said as much simply to be contrary."

[15:50] Rimblade: "Don't you be mocking me! I could take you!"

[15:51] Eitak_Razal: Looks like i'll have to increase my search some..

[15:51] Lkeas: Normal channel, Eitak?

[15:52] Eitak_Razal: Just the normal places one would assume to look ((AQ Forums))

[15:52] FrogPlushie: (Link: http://www.randomwebsearch.com/)http://www.randomwebsearch.com/

[15:52] FrogPlushie: Eveerrrryyy thing is there.

[15:53] Lkeas: Ah. Yeah, that would be my next project. See, the two groups of seekers are divided in their discussions.

[15:53] Lkeas: I'd like to unify us all if possible.

[15:53] Deathbringer: Unity is key.

[15:53] Dyn: "Mmmm."

[15:53] Dyn: "I wonder..."

[15:54] Lkeas: At least in the sense that we are able to discuss in one area. Not that we should all be unified in mind and thought, necessarily.

[15:54] Deathbringer: Why don't we invite them here?

[15:54] FrogPlushie: Then they'd set the place on fire.

[15:55] Dyn: "I believe milord Falerin's invitation to those seekers wishing to come here applies to them as well."

[15:55] * Lkeas nods in agreement with Dyn.

[15:55] Lkeas: That is, if they'd accept our invitation.

[15:55] Deathbringer: Well since they have a different name, are you sure they know they are welcome?

[15:56] Eitak_Razal: We should meet them on nutral grounds.

[15:56] Lkeas: I'd like to think that this IS neutral ground..

[15:56] Dyn: "These ARE neutral g... er... quite."

[15:56] Deathbringer: It is, isn't it.

[15:56] Lkeas: But I guess a few outspoken people have earned the Truth Seekers something of a reputation.

[15:56] Deathbringer: ?

[15:56] * Deathbringer sighs.

[15:57] FrogPlushie: Let's see... Network agents, gods, demons, seraphs, dolls, murderers...

[15:57] FrogPlushie: Yeah, we're perrrrfectly fine.

[15:57] * Dyn absently flips a small golden coin.

[15:57] Eitak_Razal: You forgot 15 year old world conquers

[15:58] Dyn: "Gods, demons, murders.... oh my!"

[15:58] FrogPlushie: Really, I'd scare them all away.... I mean a talking doll.

[15:58] * Falerin appears

[15:58] Falerin: it is nonsense anyway

[15:58] * Nick shrugs again.

[15:58] Eitak_Razal: Oh, Hello Falerin.

[15:58] * Rimblade spectacularly fails to shrug.

[15:58] * Falerin These purported hell seekers are truth seekers with a nifty new label

[15:58] * Lkeas nods. "Yeah, pretty much."

[15:59] Falerin: not that the label is meaningfull....

[15:59] Falerin: As they quite clearly do not seek hell

[15:59] Lkeas: Not any more meaningful than an Archive labeled "Encyclopedia," no.

[15:59] Falerin: Nor indeed would they like it if they found it...

[15:59] Falerin: I am sure Deathbriger would agree

[15:59] Dyn: "Ahe."

[15:59] Deathbringer: No... they hells are quite boring. THe Abyss is much better.

[16:00] Falerin: The abysss is a far superior

[16:00] FrogPlushie: It's really hot there. I burns like mad.

[16:00] FrogPlushie: ((xD))

[16:00] Falerin: Lower plane

[16:00] * Deathbringer grins, "That it is."

[16:00] FrogPlushie: Abyssseekers?

[16:00] * Eitak_Razal gigles

[16:00] FrogPlushie: Sounds snake-esque.

[16:00] Lkeas: I would just hope that at some point we can get everybody discussing in one forum, rather than having them off to the side somewhere.

[16:00] Falerin: Of course I rather prefer staying outside of the lower planes anyway

[16:00] Eitak_Razal: ((Giggles even))

[16:00] Falerin: I am a prime material kind of guy

[16:00] Deathbringer: Ah, quite alot are.

[16:00] Dyn: "For a while, anyway."

[16:01] Lkeas: But perhaps they feel they cannot speak in a "no holds barred" fashion where we discuss.

[16:01] Falerin: The outerplanes are mostly boring or far too onesided

[16:01] Falerin: Excepting Limbo but it is just maddening

[16:01] Falerin: As you know...

[16:01] Deathbringer: Limbo is a crazy place.

[16:01] * Dyn blows a thoughtful bubble.

[16:02] Eitak_Razal: I kinda liked Limbo. I could sit on the ceiling there.

[16:02] Nick: I hate Limbo...

[16:02] Falerin: Are we keeping ourselves entertained....

[16:02] Elaith: I quite like it here, though I suppose planar travel seems destined to happen now and again.

[16:02] Eitak_Razal: Depresseing though.

[16:02] * Arden floats up to the ceiling turns upside down and sits indian style

[16:02] FrogPlushie: Yeah, I despise Limbo. The fog there tried to eat me.

[16:02] Lkeas: Actually, Loremaster, since you're here, we had a question regarding the epilogue we are to write..

[16:02] Arden: I can do that here

[16:02] Dyn: "We've games aplenty, it would seem."

[16:02] Arden: Who is that you are talking to you

[16:02] * Arden peers at Falerin

[16:02] Eitak_Razal: No one Arden.

[16:02] Arden: "Have we met?"

[16:02] Eitak_Razal: Just a freind of ours.

[16:03] Arden: "You look very familiar"

[16:03] * Falerin smiles

[16:03] Falerin: Falerin of Dragonsblood

[16:03] Falerin: It is a pleasure to make your aquaintance

[16:03] * Eitak_Razal blinks "Of dragonsblood?"

[16:03] Lkeas: Hmm. Weren't you to go to Dragonsblood, Arden?

[16:03] * Falerin chuckles

[16:04] Lkeas: That's probably why he seems familiar. Proabably ran into him over there.

[16:04] Rimblade: "Dragons get really annoyed if you ask them to part with their blood."

[16:04] Arden: "A Caelestian... Your parents clearly disliked you...."

[16:04] * Durroth yawns as he wakes up

[16:04] Rimblade: "Even moreso if you fail to ask."

[16:04] Falerin: "They were certainly ballsy... to give me the name of one of the Old gods.... I mean really"

[16:04] Falerin: "I imagine they thought it gave me character"

[16:05] * Lkeas hides a grin behind the notebook she's holding.

[16:05] Arden: You do not believe in him do you? Your namesake I mean?

[16:05] Dyn: "When everyone knows that there is no god but Eldron?"

[16:05] * Eitak_Razal hides a grin behind the screen of her laptop.

[16:05] *** Dale has signed off IRC (Ping timeout).

[16:05] Falerin: "I believe that there are more things in this multiverse then we can explain in our time here...."

[16:05] Arden: "A very politic answer"

[16:06] Arden: "Well if you will excuse me I have buisness to attend"

[16:06] Lkeas: Take care, Arden.

[16:06] * Nick watches with a little interest.

[16:06] * Arden bows deferently to Falerin before turning and exiting via the Terrace gate

[16:06] Lkeas: If you need extra quills for your list...

[16:06] Arden: List?

[16:06] * Arden shrugs and exits

[16:07] * Dyn flips a coin absently.

[16:07] *** Arden is now known as Falerin.

[16:07] Dyn: "A diplomatic fellow, it seems."

[16:07] * Lkeas shrugs as well before turning back to Falerin. "Anyway, about that epilogue. Are we to reflect solely on the journal itself, or should it expand beyond those writings?"

[16:07] Falerin: Diplomacy is among his skills though he is a bit scathingly blunt when need be too

[16:07] Falerin: Oh do whatever suits you as seekers

[16:08] Falerin: Do call upon Moridin and his ilk too

[16:08] Rimblade: "We generally try."

[16:08] Falerin: I should very much be amused to see them included

[16:08] Falerin: Well then

[16:08] Eitak_Razal: Moridin?

[16:08] Falerin: Do not do anything I would not do

[16:08] * Falerin vanishes

[16:09] Dyn: "A curious fellow, is Lord Falerin."

[16:09] Falerin: (from nowhere) Which leaves the field wide open pretty much
