An Unexpected Assassin

From Caelwiki

[17:01] * TaloToecan sighs again, then lets the spark wink from existance. "To borrow a Terran phrase...why do I still feel like the red-headed stepchild?"

[17:03] * Lkeas picks up her quill again and smirks. "Well, the copper does look sort of red.."

[17:04] Jeice: You have closer ties to the others than I feel I do, TaloToecan.

[17:04] *** Dale has signed off IRC (Drowned: ).

[17:05] Durroth: dont worry, eventually you'll realize that your less the odd one out than half of us

[17:05] * TaloToecan shares a small smile with Lkeas before looking at Jeice. "It all depends on how you percieve things, Jeice."

[17:06] Jeice: I haven't managed to grow close to anyone. You've been called family. I think that at least says something in your favor.

[17:10] * Lkeas looks over at Jeice. "We are ALL family here, now. Part of being united is having a mutual respect for each person and for self. When we can see the importance of each seeker in this community and put aside "favors" and "favorites," I think... well... that would be a great day indeed.."

[17:11] ApexFog: It will be tough to do so...getting over judgements...that can take quite a while...

[17:12] *** bule has joined #darkabode.

[17:12] *** Mode change "+v bule" for channel #darkabode by Reality.

[17:12] Lkeas: Yes, that is a challenge. But the way I see it... people are upset that The'Galin is choosing who gets to live and who gets uncreated... if we don't like how he, a god who can see inside our souls, can judge, then how can we think our own judgments any better?

[17:13] ApexFog: Because we all have different judgement, and different perspectives

[17:13] Durroth: different perspectives isnt bad

[17:13] Nick: Its more of a Power issue, No one likes being controlled by something stronger...

[17:14] TaloToecan: "One question might be whether or not what we percieve as failures or successes are truly seen that way in The'Galin's own overarchng plans."

[17:14] *** Malcolm is now known as Macer|AFK.

[17:15] ApexFog: True...however...we cannot really know without actually getting in contact with him, at least that is how I see it

[17:15] TaloToecan: "A change of subject, perhaps, rather than indulging in the potential sibling rivalries between calling few brothers and sisters, and others as cousins or nephews and nieces."

[17:16] * Lkeas shrugs. "I think deep down, if we think about our actions, we'd know whether or not The'Galin would approve.."

[17:16] Nick: Who wants to judge themself?

[17:16] ApexFog: Well...do we really know what The'Galin approves and disapproves?

[17:16] * Lkeas turns to TaloToecan. "And I agree. The brother and sister titles should either be applied liberally to all, or not used.."

[17:17] * Arden descends the stairs

[17:17] Arden: And what pray would constitute a valid reason for the former?

[17:17] * Jeice looks towards the stairs. "Hello Arden."

[17:18] * Damsel nods her head respectfully to Arden.

[17:18] Arden: Does my house suddenly have tiers of clientele....

[17:19] Arden: Whith varying levels of prestige?

[17:19] Jeice: I don't see why it would.

[17:19] * TaloToecan blinks slightly. "No, more of addressing a holdover from older days and more innocent times of naivety."

[17:19] Lkeas: That's just what we were discussing, that the idea of having only a few people with certain entitlements to "brother" or "sister" should be done away with.

[17:20] Lkeas: If we are to be family, then we are all brothers and sisters. Or if people are uncomfortable with such terms of endearment, then we should just go by our given names.

[17:21] TaloToecan: "And if my case has any bearing...if the latter is chosen as the course of action, then we should use only the true given names, not nicknames or aliases."

[17:22] *** Darkchris76 has joined #darkabode.

[17:22] Lkeas: Ah, well, assuming that is their wish, of course. There may be some who choose an alias of their own free will.

[17:22] TaloToecan: "Perhaps, but some prove more damaging than others. However subtle that damage begins as."

[17:31] * Arden hmms and then exits via the Terrace gate

[17:32] *** Kaz|rlysleeping is now known as Kazuma.

[17:32] * Lkeas looks after Arden for a moment, then shrugs and turns back to the others. "Alright, well.. how do you all think this might best be resolved?"

[17:33] ApexFog: We could...just have those wanted to be called brothers and sisters brothers sisters, however..thsoe not comfy with it can...just not be called that nor say it?

[17:33] ApexFog: Unless that is what is currently instated...

[17:33] Damsel: "I won't cease calling LordBarrius my brother, no matter what you decide. In doing so, I think it would hurt him far worse than any good you wish to have come from outlawing it."

[17:34] Jeice: I accept whatever people call me, or others are ok with being called.

[17:34] * Elaith yawns and jots a note *

[17:35] * Lkeas nods to Damsel. "I think we've been through so much that calling each other by familiar terms just seems natural. I would just hope that newer seekers are not put off if we call them the same."

[17:36] ApexFog: I am not put off...I am just saying for those who do feel umcomfortable with those terms...that it is pretty much just open...that if you decide to cal someone that or be called that so be it...

[17:36] TaloToecan: "It is not exactly the easiest conundrum to solve, though I suppose if we alter how we great newer Seekers, it may work."

[17:36] * Damsel shrugs. "I do not see why they would be unable to decide if they are welcome to such endearing terms."

[17:37] Durroth: some people are frightened easily by being too welcomed

[17:37] Durroth: it makes no sense to me, but it happens

[17:37] Damsel: "And some are put off by not being welcomed enough."

[17:38] Damsel: "So it is a situation that there is no true winning position to in every situation."

[17:38] ApexFog: Yeah...pretty much...

[17:39] * Lkeas chuckles. "Well, let's not be so negative about the whole ordeal. Perhaps if we just keep a level of familiarity and a welcoming nature it won't really matter what we call each other."

[17:39] Damsel: "It seems to me like it's something that each individual needs to decide for him or herself, what they wish to be called and how they choose to refer to other people."

[17:39] Durroth: but there are less people put off by being too welcome than not welcome enough

[17:40] Damsel: "All things considered, this seems somewhat like a silly topic to be discussing at all."

[17:41] * A quite whistle is heard throughout the abode

[17:41] * Lkeas pulls out her sketchbook and tosses it on the table. "I concur. Shall we discuss these, instead?"

[17:41] * TaloToecan shrugs once, goes silent, and returns to manipulating a spark of flame between his palms

[17:41] Kazuma: ((soo....when does Kaz wake up? When I want him to? I don't want to defy Falerin))

[17:42] * Elaith 's ears perk, and he shakes his head.

[17:42] Durroth: sure

[17:42] >Ambiance<: In the distance the sound of clinking like metal striking metal can be heard

[17:42] Durroth: whats with the noise?

[17:43] >Ambiance<: Come see the event so stunning and so mystifying that Lauren of Lore called it Reincarnating

[17:43] * Damsel pauses a moment, listening quietly for a moment.

[17:43] * Lkeas frowns as she listens. "I'm not sure... it sounds like the festival is back, though.."

[17:43] * ApexFog sits still not concerned at the moment

[17:43] *** Kazuma is now known as Romulus.

[17:43] * Nick laughs "Its back"

[17:43] * TaloToecan looks between them all. "Who...has yet to attend?"

[17:43] Romulus: ((if Kaz won't wake up, Rom will))

[17:44] * Romulus wakes up

[17:44] ApexFog: Well I have never been...so...

[17:44] * Romulus urges Kazuma to wake up

[17:45] * Durroth stands up and stretches

[17:45] Damsel: "You think it should be visited again? I was somewhat hoping to speak of the Harbinger's visit the other day..."

[17:45] TaloToecan: "It depends

[17:45] ApexFog: Well doesn't matter to me

[17:45] TaloToecan: "There are those who have not experienced such, and if they choose to, should not be denied the experience."

[17:46] ApexFog: Eh....whatever you all feel like doing...

[17:46] Elaith: I definitely want to check it out. I am curious as to what it is I would encounter.

[17:46] Romulus: wake up...wale up

[17:46] * Damsel hesitates and nods her head. "As long as they know what it is exactly before they step inside."

[17:46] Romulus: ((wake*))

[17:46] ApexFog: Well what is it?

[17:46] Romulus: I'd have Kazuma tell me, but he's asleep

[17:47] * Falerin appears unconcious on the floor

[17:47] * Lkeas shifts her gaze from her sketchbook over to Falerin. "Wha..? LoreMaster, are you alright?"

[17:47] ApexFog: ((brb dishes sorry :-())

[17:47] * Damsel begins searching through scrolls but stops as she spies the unconcious form.

[17:48] Nick: Is he alright?

[17:48] Jeice: Falerin?!

[17:48] * TaloToecan raises himself to his feet and dismissed the spark swiftly. "This is...forboding."

[17:48] * Elaith rushes over to Falerin's side. "Damsel, you are the best healer here. Could you look him over?" An urgent tone bleeds through his words.

[17:48] * Romulus takes out a MedPac from his left leg

[17:48] Romulus: not sure what it would do for a god...

[17:48] * Falerin is attired in a black polo shirt and black sueded dress slacks, black loafers with black dress socks.

[17:49] * Damsel puts the parchments down and swiftly but carefully approaches Falerin. "I'll look him over, but I"m not generally familiar with gods physiology."

[17:49] Romulus: damn, he was doing the wedding

[17:49] * Falerin's hair is cut short in a short spike and stops just below his ear

[17:49] * Falerin's ears are rounded

[17:49] Romulus: wait...he seems...

[17:49] Legault: Hrm... He isn't looking too... Elf like.

[17:49] * Falerin's eyes are closed and his breathing is decidedly shallow

[17:49] Romulus: human

[17:49] Lyoko: ( >_> )

[17:49] Durroth: Human?

[17:49] Darkchris76: Huh?

[17:50] Damsel: "This is not a good sign... Which Falerin is this...?"

[17:50] * Jeice sounds obviously worried. "What's going on with him...?"

[17:50] * Lkeas frowns. "One of his avatars, perhaps?"

[17:50] * Lyoko is awake now, from the ruckus.

[17:50] TaloToecan: "I am not so much worried about his state as to what might have put him in such a state...then again..." He peers closely at Falerin. "...the real question is if this version is mortal."

[17:50] Lkeas: But how did he get here?

[17:50] Nick: Aye...

[17:50] Legault: From the attire, I can

[17:50] Legault: 't quite imagine this being the god.

[17:51] TaloToecan: "Translocation, the question better asked is why he was sent here, and if it was under his own power."

[17:52] * Damsel kneels quietly at Falerin's side. "Well he's breathing. Depending on which version of him this is, I'm somewhat hesitent to try my magic upon him..."

[17:52] * Lkeas nods.

[17:52] * Elaith frowns. "I hope he's alright. I suppose we shouldn't move him since we have no idea what's wrong."

[17:53] ApexFog: ((back))

[17:53] Damsel: "No, it's probably best to leave him where he is instead of risking aggrivating an injury."

[17:53] * Falerin goes from lying prone to standing with absolutely no bending of any joints in his body

[17:53] * Falerin's eyes remain closed

[17:53] Romulus: woah

[17:53] * TaloToecan ponders. "Telepathy seems to have gotten me into more trouble than not, I cou-bwah?"

[17:53] Legault: Huh?

[17:53] * Jeice 's eyes widen in surprise.

[17:53] * Lkeas steps back. "That's definitely not a human action.."

[17:53] * Damsel is clearly startled as she scrambles to her feet and backs away slowly."

[17:53] Romulus: ((bwah?))

[17:53] Durroth: definitely not

[17:53] * Elaith stumbles back a bit in shock, but doesn't fall over.

[17:53] Romulus: seems to be like a puppet

[17:54] * Darkchris76 falls over in shock "What the.."

[17:54] * ApexFog stands up still unconcerned as he stares at Falerin

[17:54] * TaloToecan blinks and looks at the variant Falerin more closely

[17:54] * Falerin snaps open his eyes abruptly they are jet black without any discernable iris, conjunctiva, or segregate pupil. Like liquid onyx marbles floating in his skull

[17:55] Elaith: Sir, are you ok?

[17:55] Nick: Definately not normal...

[17:55] Romulus: easily a puppet

[17:55] * Jeice 's mouth begins to gape slightly as he wonders what is happening.

[17:55] * Damsel surpresses an involentary shudder. "Falerin...?"

[17:55] * TaloToecan blinks again, well familiar with that shade of eye color. "I do not like this, not at all."

[17:55] * ApexFog steps a bit more forward

[17:55] *** Selarep has joined #darkabode.

[17:55] * Legault frowns, "What's this...?"

[17:55] * Lyoko looks at Falerin, a little disturbed.

[17:56] * Lkeas blinks in surprise. "Hey.. this might be a bad time to discuss this, but... does Falerin have siblings...? Perhaps, two of the same age as him?"

[17:56] * Falerin A blood red wave appears to dance well beneath the puddle of the surface of the eye

[17:56] Jeice: I-I, uh... I n-never heard of any...

[17:56] * Jeice continues to stare wide-eyed at Falerin.

[17:56] ApexFog: What is going on?

[17:57] * Selarep walks down the stairs

[17:57] Durroth: I have no clue

[17:57] Damsel: "Shades..."

[17:57] * TaloToecan moves off to one side. "I would not risk physical contact with him...or perhaps myself at this time." Peering into Falerin's eyes, he probes for a concious or subconcious mind behind them liqud onyx floating on a sea of crimson."

[17:57] Selarep: Hello, everyone.

[17:57] * Falerin closes his eyes

[17:57] Selarep: What's going on here?

[17:57] Legault: Hrm... Looks like he's.... Animated.

[17:57] Selarep: Falerin's a zombie?

[17:58] Legault: That red glow behind his eyes isn't normal for a living thing, last time I checked.

[17:58] * Lkeas shudders. "Falerin? Can you hear us? D-do you know where you are..?"

[17:58] * Falerin reopens his eyes they are now a very light and very intense cobalt. with a small green halo and copper flecks. His pupils are normal but his conjunctiva remains black as night

[17:58] * TaloToecan lets his telepathic scan run, wondering at what horror might well be revealed to him because of his curiousity."

[17:58] ApexFog: Perhaps he is regaining his power?

[17:59] * Jeice slowly inches his way behind the couch he had been sitting on.

[17:59] * Selarep walks over to Legault. "What's going on with Falerin?"

[17:59] Legault: How should I know?

[17:59] TaloToecan: "I...do not know."

[17:59] Selarep: What happened here?

[17:59] Damsel: "I would advise great caution right now."

[17:59] ApexFog: Why? Do you sense something bad or...?

[18:00] TaloToecan: "There is...nothing behind those eyes. Nothing that I sense at all."

[18:00] Jeice: Anything that can effect Falerin or one of his Avatar like this other than himself... would be dangerous if something were to happen.

[18:00] * Damsel shakes her head. "Just a feeling..."

[18:00] Legault: Huh... The Cold?

[18:00] TaloToecan: "The same nothing as a an easle without even the canvas for a painter to make art with."

[18:00] Legault: Doesn't it eventually end up like this?

[18:00] Jeice: If it was a mere puppet, I imagine Falerin would have said something by now...

[18:00] Lkeas: That's strange..

[18:01] * Falerin opens his eyes and lets out a banshee like shriek at 140 decibels 2.5 octaves above middle c

[18:01] Romulus: who said Falerin's controling it?

[18:01] * Legault winces.

[18:01] ApexFog: Hmm that was interesting

[18:01] Romulus: ((Freakin' loud?))

[18:01] Durroth: Gah!

[18:01] * Lkeas covers her ears instinctively. "Gods! What is that for?!"

[18:01] * TaloToecan winces and holds his hands over his ears at the piercing cry.

[18:01] * Durroth shapeshifts his ears off

[18:01] * Falerin continues shrieking unabated

[18:01] * Lyoko claps her hands over her ears in pain.

[18:02] * Damsel reflexively covers her ears as well, taking a few more steps backwards.

[18:02] * Darkchris76 covers ears in pain

[18:02] * Jeice covers his ears as well.

[18:02] * Romulus activates the noise reducer in pain

[18:02] Lyoko: ( I think our characters are deaf now. XD )

[18:02] * ApexFog looks arund wondering why everyone is bringing their hands to their ears

[18:02] ApexFog: around*

[18:02] * Selarep pokes his fingers in his ears

[18:02] * Falerin shrieks with enough treble that there is vibration a feat that requires considerably more effort then with bass

[18:02] Romulus: ((It's like you lot holding your hands over your ears))

[18:03] * Elaith instantly doubles over and clasps his hands over his ears, suffering temporary deafness.

[18:03] * TaloToecan squints his eyes as he fights to tap into the realm of telekinetics to set up a bubble to suppress the sound...fighting for long moments to reduce it to something bearable to his sensitive ears.

[18:03] * Lkeas crumples to her knees. "How do we stop it? How.."

[18:03] Darkchris76: I dont think we can

[18:03] Durroth: duct... tape...

[18:03] * Falerin closes his mouth

[18:03] * ApexFog looks at Falerin inquisitively " Well..I don't know...perhaps if someone touches him?"

[18:03] * Legault replaces his hood and covers his ears with his hands, "What is he?"

[18:04] * Falerin closes his eyes again

[18:04] * TaloToecan looks at the others suffering...and forgoes his own comfort to fight and expand the bubble to the others instead......only to hear the thunderous silence left behind by the shriek.

[18:04] ApexFog: Welll this is certainly strange...

[18:04] * Durroth shapeshifts his ears back

[18:04] ApexFog: Should we attack, wait to see what happens...or?

[18:04] * Falerin reopens his eyes they are now a very light and very intense cobalt his whites are normal white with normal capillary patterns

[18:04] Romulus: hm?

[18:04] Darkchris76: im seeing an odd pattern here but wont say till im certain

[18:04] * Lkeas crawls over to the couch where her satchel is. "I don't know..."

[18:05] * Lyoko doesn't uncover her ears for fear of another shriek.

[18:05] * Damsel winces, clearly in lingering pain from the sound and unwilling yet to lower her hands.

[18:05] * Jeice stumbles a little, locking his eyes on the Falerin-esgue... thing.

[18:05] Durroth: one more thing happens every time

[18:05] * Falerin raises his hands and a large staff flies from somewhere deep within the house into his hand

[18:05] Durroth: ...

[18:05] Durroth: now this is just getting weird

[18:05] * TaloToecan sweeps his mind across himself, evaluating for damage from resounance among the complex bio-mechanical processes that are so much a part of his form.

[18:05] Romulus: if the noise is indicated by his eyes, I'll turn off the noise intake system until he closes his eyes.

[18:05] ApexFog: Interesting...

[18:06] * Darkchris76 coughs loudly

[18:06] Falerin: Interesting

[18:06] Legault: Huh?

[18:06] * ApexFog walks closer to Falerin

[18:06] Romulus: what is?

[18:06] Nick: Right back at ya...

[18:06] Falerin: Huh? What is? Right back at ya...

[18:06] Durroth: well, now hes at least speaking in words

[18:06] ApexFog: A copy?

[18:06] * Lkeas lifts her head inquisitively.

[18:07] * TaloToecan lowers himself to one knee, still assessing his own state, struggling to hear anything behind a high-pitched whine in his ears.

[18:07] ApexFog: he is just mimicking us...or well for that bit at least

[18:07] Darkchris76: He just repeated us

[18:07] * Jeice is still wincing a bit from the sound assault.

[18:07] * Durroth keeps a wary distance

[18:07] Falerin: well, now hes at least speaking in a copy words

[18:07] ApexFog: or maybe it is trying to speak...using whatever dailogue we use?

[18:07] * Elaith coughs up a little blood, but as his balance and vision begin to recover he takes his hands from his ears.

[18:07] * ApexFog moves closer

[18:07] Falerin: Mimicing us he is just repeated. His screaming may break my armor

[18:08] Romulus: oh, right, was he speaking banshee ?

[18:08] * Legault drops his hood and winces, "... I seriously doubt that's Falerin."

[18:08] Romulus: oh god, that's me

[18:08] Durroth: What?

[18:08] Darkchris76: Kindof scary him talking in third person

[18:08] Romulus: it's our thoughts

[18:08] * TaloToecan blinks several times, trying to shake the last of the whine from his head, and stares anew at the Falerin before them. "Speech...? But his mind was utterly blank and void."

[18:09] Durroth: this is either a realy bad copy of falerin, or a very analog

[18:09] Durroth: very new*

[18:09] Romulus: I was thinking about how his screaming may break my armor

[18:09] * Damsel lets her hands drop and looks at Falerin with growing alarm. "Masters pupil... Could it not be in reference to students but to the eyes...?"

[18:10] Falerin: Master eyes his pupil

[18:10] * Lkeas frowns. "Wait..."

[18:10] Selarep: Falerin is stupid.

[18:10] Lkeas: The Triplet. The Man in Black? There were three men..

[18:10] Falerin: Bravo

[18:10] * Damsel glances at Lkeas and nods.

[18:10] Falerin: Have a cookie

[18:10] Darkchris76: hehe

[18:10] * Lkeas scowls. "I don't want one from you, thanks all the same..."

[18:10] * Durroth blinks

[18:10] * Jeice 's eyes glow a little bit as if a fire is inside, and he starts to relax as it dims again.

[18:10] Durroth: now hes not copying us anymore

[18:10] Romulus: ((XD))

[18:11] * TaloToecan stares at Falerin, his expression nearly blank, if a shade exasperated.

[18:11] Romulus: that's the thoughts of our Falerin

[18:11] Jeice: ((ears*))

[18:11] Durroth: what IS he?

[18:11] Falerin: The thoughts of our falerin that he is copying

[18:11] Selarep: Dang. I wanted to see if he would say "Falerin is stupid."

[18:11] ApexFog: haha

[18:11] ApexFog: Haha*

[18:11] Falerin: Selarep is stupid.... exceedingly moronic

[18:11] Selarep: ...

[18:11] ApexFog: Ouch...

[18:11] Legault: Hehehe.

[18:11] Romulus: yup, that's Falerin

[18:12] ApexFog: So then...ok I understand....I think....

[18:12] * Lkeas shoots a glance at Damsel. "This is low..."

[18:12] Falerin: The penalty for our entrapment is your death

[18:12] ApexFog: Wait...what?

[18:12] * Jeice 's eyes widen again.

[18:12] Romulus: eek!

[18:12] * TaloToecan whispers softly. "Marionette."

[18:12] * Selarep flips the birdy at the god even though he'll probably be smited for that

[18:12] * Darkchris76 Cough "What!"

[18:12] Falerin: But not before I kill The Hermit

[18:12] Durroth: now THAT is indeed something we didnt say

[18:12] Falerin: The Hermit will die

[18:12] * Romulus prepares to jet out of here

[18:12] Durroth: ...

[18:12] Jeice: Kill Mariel?!

[18:12] Damsel: "No! You can't..."

[18:13] Jeice: Why, what's going on?!

[18:13] * Falerin floats toward the door

[18:13] Selarep: ...?

[18:13] Falerin: Yes I can

[18:13] ApexFog: So...we are going to try and stop him? or let it happen?

[18:13] Nick: Hold on a sec, thats quite a lot to just spring out into the open...

[18:13] Jeice: Why?!

[18:13] * TaloToecan tries to analyze that which is reptilian.

[18:13] Falerin: I definitely possess the capacity

[18:13] Romulus: we won't let you

[18:13] Falerin: Try and stop me then... and I will kill you too

[18:13] Darkchris76: ...

[18:13] Romulus: okay...I won't

[18:13] Selarep: Oh really?

[18:14] * Elaith prays. Prayer: Mariel, be warned, there is a threat on your life by one who seriously believes they will succeed.

[18:14] * Lyoko has uncovered her ears, by the way,

[18:14] * Falerin gestures and the door flies open

[18:14] * Damsel shakes her head. "Wait a minute. If he is the servant, he is too big in ego to know his betters."

[18:14] Falerin: Thank you Elaith

[18:14] Falerin: Now he shall investigate

[18:14] Falerin: And come right to me

[18:14] * Falerin smiles

[18:14] *** Dale has joined #darkabode.

[18:14] *** Mode change "+v Dale" for channel #darkabode by Reality.

[18:14] Lkeas: And too small to fill the shoes..

[18:14] Darkchris76: What the....

[18:14] Nick: Walked into that one...

[18:14] ApexFog: This is just odd...

[18:14] Durroth: ... we really did

[18:14] * Damsel glances at Lkeas and nods her head. "I think... we should let him go."

[18:14] * TaloToecan moves to stand beside the door, not quite close enough to block it with a sidestep, but nearly so.

[18:14] Elaith: Mariel will not lose to you.

[18:14] Jeice: Better I suppose that he has some warning than you come from "behind".

[18:15] ApexFog: Still...easier to set a trap now..

[18:15] Legault: I'm not all that worried.

[18:15] Elaith: The others would aid him.

[18:16] * TaloToecan speaks with the merest touch of a whisper. "Why...reptilian?"

[18:16] * Falerin turns

[18:16] ApexFog: Huh?

[18:16] * Jeice grows an intense frown. "What if they underestimate the threat and slip up? I don't know if they're used to this sort of thing."

[18:16] * Romulus closes his eyes

[18:16] * Falerin tosses a bolt of lightning directly at Legault

[18:16] * Lkeas turns to TaloToecan. "What? Reptilian?"

[18:17] Jeice: Gah!

[18:17] ApexFog: Awww Legault!!!

[18:17] * Lkeas trails off suddenly as the bolt of lightning streaks past her towards Legault. "No!!"

[18:17] Selarep: Legault

[18:17] Romulus: Legault!

[18:17] * Legault attempts to jump out of the ay.

[18:17] Darkchris76: Legault!

[18:17] Legault: ((Way*))

[18:17] Falerin: #roll 1d20

[18:17] RPGServ: <Roll for Falerin [1d20]: 5>

[18:17] * TaloToecan blinks and tries to act with enough alacrtity to shove Legault out of the way with telekinetics.

[18:17] Lyoko: ( >_> )

[18:17] Falerin: Roll lower then 5

[18:17] Selarep: (<_<)

[18:17] * Damsel tries to errect a barrier about Legault, feeling it likely too late.

[18:17] Romulus: ((saving throw))

[18:17] Legault: #roll 1d20

[18:17] RPGServ: <Roll for Legault [1d20]: 5>

[18:17] Legault: ((>.>))

[18:17] ApexFog: ((OO))

[18:17] Selarep: Good enough.

[18:17] Romulus: ((wow))

[18:17] Lyoko: ( Oh wow. )

[18:18] Lkeas: (he said "lower" than 5)

[18:18] >Ambiance<: The Bolt strikes him directly and it hurts but it does no lasting damage

[18:18] ApexFog: Well...what was the point of the bolt...?

[18:18] Falerin: "Now you can worry"

[18:18] Selarep: (But I said good enough.)

[18:18] * Legault falls to the ground, "Nrg..."

[18:18] * Jeice gasps.

[18:18] * Falerin floats toward the gate which swings open for him

[18:18] ApexFog: This is so confusing...

[18:18] * Jeice rushes to Legault and tries to help him up.

[18:18] Romulus: ((oh god... I JUST get a new greet))

[18:18] * Darkchris76 runs to Legault

[18:18] * Selarep throws a fireball at Falerin's shoes

[18:19] * Lkeas curses. "What good is that damn gate if he just bypasses it?"

[18:19] * TaloToecan speaks with the merest touch of a whisper once more, eyes thinned nearly to slits while he watches 'Falerin' depart. "Why...a marionette?"

[18:19] * Nick sighs and looks over at Legault.

[18:19] Darkchris76: Serarep No

[18:19] Selarep: (^_^)

[18:19] Jeice: Come on... please get up...

[18:19] * Falerin literally bends down and scoops up the ball of fire

[18:19] Legault: ... I think I'll be alright. Just hurts a lot.

[18:19] * Damsel winces at Serarep's action. "Get out of the doorway. Move!"

[18:19] * Falerin tosses it back into the abode allowing it to expand into that enclosed space

[18:19] * Selarep erects a shield of fire around him

[18:19] Falerin: #roll 6d6

[18:19] RPGServ: <Roll for Falerin [6d6]: 20>

[18:19] *** -Niflheim.Caelestia.Net- *** OperOverride -- Goofy|AFK (Goofy@208.104.129.220) KICK #werepyre Niv|Writing (Such a bad move you made there.)

[18:19] Selarep: (XD)

[18:19] Falerin: ((Ooh you are beyond lucky....))

[18:19] ApexFog: Well, that is good

[18:20] Jeice: ((Does everyone roll...?))

[18:20] Selarep: #roll 6d6

[18:20] RPGServ: <Roll for Selarep [6d6]: 13>

[18:20] * TaloToecan latches his eyes upon the flame and wills it to bend to his desires. (Pyrokinetics)

[18:20] Falerin: ((20 points of fire damage to the house and its environs))

[18:20] Selarep: (Heh heh.)

[18:20] Jeice: ((Wait, Jeice is fire...))

[18:20] Romulus: ((I happen to know that MedPac will heal 1d20))

[18:20] Lkeas: ((er, how much HP does the house have?))

[18:20] Selarep: (But I have a fire shield around me.)

[18:20] Lyoko: ( XD )

[18:20] ApexFog: ((And I use fire as my element ><))

[18:20] Lyoko: ( I didn't know houses had HP. )

[18:20] Elaith: ((I take the damage in full. >_<))

[18:21] Selarep: (XD)

[18:21] ApexFog: ((lol))

[18:21] * Jeice tries to supress the flames around the other Seekers.

[18:21] Romulus: ((no, I don't have THAT many MedPacs))

[18:21] Falerin: ((This one does... it most definitely does))

[18:21] Falerin: ((And Medpacs will not heal houses))

[18:21] Lyoko: ( XD )

[18:21] Romulus: ((I know))

[18:21] Selarep: (Now everyone's characters are going to be mad at me! Yay!)

[18:21] Damsel: ((Damsel has some fire protection as well))

[18:21] Romulus: ((repairs do))

[18:21] Elaith: ((And you can become a puddle!))

[18:22] Damsel: ((:P))

[18:22] ApexFog: ((who has something that can repair a house?))

[18:22] Selarep: (O_O)

[18:22] Legault: ((God, Legault has been burnt SO many times in the last two days.))

[18:22] ApexFog: ((lol))

[18:22] Rittikwi: (( hammer and nails))

[18:22] Selarep: (As long as my room isn't burnt.)

[18:22] Selarep: (Oh wait...)

[18:22] Selarep: (>_<)

[18:22] Lkeas: (can we curb the commentary now?)

[18:23] * Elaith suffers severe burns across his body *

[18:23] * ApexFog tries to collect the flames into a ball, to little avail

[18:23] * Lyoko takes the full blast of fire, and catches on fire. She jumps out of the chair and starts rolling around on the floor trying to put it out.

[18:23] * Durroth raises his right hand straight out beside him and Nyetsubeth expands, covering Durroth's clothing in its metal and attempting to keep them from burning

[18:23] * Elaith falls, unconscious.

[18:23] * Jeice looks around and see Lyoko.

[18:23] * Darkchris76 jumps out of a dark corner and avoids fires

[18:23] Selarep: (Anyone know water magic?)

[18:23] * Jeice sends his fire to Lyoko, trying to override the flames, and restore rather than destroy.

[18:23] * Nick is unaffected by the flame though is shocked at it.

[18:23] * ApexFog goes over to elaith and begins chanting a spell quietly

[18:23] Romulus: ((if Ness were here >.<))

[18:24] * Damsel curses loudly and rushes to help those most injured. "No one else try anything against him!"

[18:24] * ApexFog continues chanting

[18:24] * Legault generates a small ball of water and holds it infront of him cringing, "Gah..."

[18:24] * Romulus takes out more medpacs

[18:24] Durroth: Fire, bane of the spirit of chaos. it is afraid

[18:24] Romulus: We may need these

[18:24] * TaloToecan blinks once before falling into what appears on the surface to alternate between severe seizures and complete stillness at random.

[18:24] Durroth: I'm not sure I can keep it in sleep

[18:24] * Selarep absorbs the fire with his shield, smirking

[18:25] * Lyoko is put out, and gets up, looking angry. She is slightly burnt, but it mostly got her cloak. She doesn't try anything, though.

[18:25] Romulus: ((hope somebody else here played KoTR 1 or 2))

[18:25] * Jeice looks around for more injured persons.

[18:25] * Lkeas has since lowered to her belly on the floor to stay below the smoke. "Gods... if only I were my analog from Lore... he's a Nautican..." she trails off in a fit of coughing.

[18:25] * Legault collapses to the ground, "That was... Badly played."

[18:25] Selarep: OK. I just want to clarify that that was mostly Falerin's fault.

[18:26] * Damsel goes to help TaloToecan, seeing as he is currently unattended.

[18:26] * Romulus uses a medpac on himself

[18:26] Jeice: Shut up and help!

[18:26] Nick: Aye Legault...

[18:26] Selarep: OK...

[18:26] * ApexFog finishes the incantation and it restores Elaith to consciousness, as well as partially healing the burns, however he will have to rest for a while to fuklly heal

[18:26] * TaloToecan continues his nearly epilectic state regardless

[18:26] * Selarep hands out Risalejian anti-burn herbs

[18:26] Jeice: Talo...

[18:26] * Falerin leaves the yard

[18:26] * Romulus is healed 15 damage

[18:26] ApexFog: Feeling better, Elaith?

[18:26] * Falerin floats off rapidly into the distance

[18:27] * Lkeas crawls over to TaloToecan, keeping low to the ground. "Talo... what's happened? What did you see...?"

[18:27] * TaloToecan suddenly falls completely and utterly still, though his breathing seems to be under decided control.

[18:27] Durroth: [monotone] He sleeps still, you worry too much Durroth

[18:27] Jeice: Rrrh, is he alright?

[18:27] Damsel: "Curse the shadows and all that spawns them! Why is there always one person who can not act with sense!"

[18:27] Durroth: And you worry too little

[18:27] * Lkeas swears as she watches Falerin's swiftly retreating form. "Tirlerion's getting away.."

[18:27] Jeice: Should some of us follow the "puppet"?

[18:27] * TaloToecan twiches once or twice as he gathers his legs beneath him to kneel.

[18:27] Romulus: ((you're overconfidence is your greatest weakness))

[18:27] ApexFog: I can go...

[18:28] Romulus: ((:P))

[18:28] Elaith: Not particularly. But I'll finish my healing.

[18:28] ApexFog: Ok then

[18:28] Damsel: "No! Leave him! We were given the warning. If we had listened... Dammit all."

[18:28] * Selarep eyes Damsel. "Who, me?"

[18:28] TaloToecan: "STAY..."

[18:28] * Nick begins to blow the smoke away with a gust.

[18:28] ApexFog: OK I am staying then...

[18:28] Romulus: Yes...The Harbringer warned us

[18:28] * Damsel gives Selarep a look that is pure frustrated fury.

[18:28] TaloToecan: "Information comes at a high enough price......lest you be foolish and magnify that cost..."

[18:28] Romulus: I still have that recording

[18:29] * Selarep absorbs most of the fire with a spell

[18:29] Legault: Heh, I doubt I'm in any condition to move anyways.

[18:29] Elaith: #roll 3d8 Cure Serious Wounds

[18:29] RPGServ: <Roll for Elaith [3d8]: 12> Cure Serious Wounds

[18:29] * Lyoko drops to the floor, avoiding dying of smoke inhalation.

[18:29] * Lkeas shakily pushes herself to a sitting position. "What information..?"

[18:29] * Romulus walks over to lyoko

[18:29] Selarep: Hey. I was just standing up for Legault.

[18:29] Romulus: #roll 1d20 MedPac

[18:29] RPGServ: <Roll for Romulus [1d20]: 15> MedPac

[18:29] Jeice: ((I have no idea what would be rolled for phoenix healing, if it could fail. Someone familiar with that?))

[18:29] Durroth: NO!!!!!!

[18:29] * ApexFog also walks over to Lyoko

[18:30] Romulus: There, that should help

[18:30] TaloToecan: "I...have not had much dealing before. Not with that kind. Unless you would count Morgan among their number, but even then..."

[18:30] * Darkchris76 Rushes to Lyoko

[18:30] Legault: I don't need standing up for...

[18:30] Durroth: Those... things

[18:30] Selarep: #roll 1d20 Risalejian Herbs

[18:30] RPGServ: <Roll for Selarep [1d20]: 18> Risalejian Herbs

[18:30] Durroth: They must be stopped

[18:30] Damsel: "Shades know that there is a time and place for such foolish nobility. When there has already been a warning and your companions are warning you against action... Fool!"

[18:30] Lkeas: ((why is everybody rolling for stuff all of a sudden?))

[18:30] Durroth: We have to stop him!

[18:30] Durroth: I remember...

[18:30] Selarep: Stop Falerin?

[18:30] Nick: ((Probably because Fal did it >.>))

[18:30] Romulus: (('cause we can))

[18:30] * TaloToecan shivers involuntarily. "Shades...an oddly appropriate curse De----Damsel."

[18:31] Durroth: The cemetary

[18:31] Durroth: they said they plan to recreate the scene in the cemetary

[18:31] ApexFog: What scene?

[18:31] * Lkeas twists her head toward Selarep. "That wasn't Falerin, he was being controlled by the Man in Black! The Lying Triplet.."

[18:31] * Damsel slams a fist onto the ground. "Don't you listen?! His ego is too large and he can not fill the shoes! Leave him!"

[18:31] Durroth: they plan to open a portal... for him...

[18:31] * Elaith recovers most of his strength and is soon able to rise, but moves only enough to prop himself against a wall and rest, surveying the area for the other injured and looking to see how Avarie has fared.

[18:31] * Romulus jokes a bit. "side effects may include living, breathing, and fighting immeaditly after recovering

[18:31] * TaloToecan reaches out to stop Lkeas.

[18:31] ApexFog: Anyone else need help?

[18:32] Durroth: We have to stop them! they're going to open a portal for the enemy

[18:32] Lyoko: Thank you.

[18:32] * Avarie scurries downstairs, concerned by the amount of smoke that's pouring upwards. "What has happened?!"

[18:32] * Lkeas halts her approach as she feels Talo pulling her back. "Wha.."

[18:32] Jeice: Fire was turned against us by a creature looking slightly like Falerin.

[18:32] * Legault slowly stands up, "I'm fine... I think." He drops back to his knees.

[18:32] Elaith: This is why mortals don't battle gods often.

[18:32] Jeice: Or a lot, or whatever.

[18:32] * ApexFog walks over to Legault

[18:32] Durroth: I'll tell you whats happened, we were just more or less attacked by beings who plan to open a portal for the forces we're trying to stop on caelestia!

[18:32] TaloToecan: "Lich."

[18:33] ApexFog: OK, what is it you are suffering from?

[18:33] Jeice: The eyes... certainly were different...

[18:33] Durroth: we DONT want that happening

[18:33] Romulus: ((ah, here we are...MadPacs. Heals 1d20, where 20 allots an extra roll, and 1 heals nothing because it was faulty))

[18:33] * Damsel looks around at the others, trying to see if everyone who needs such things have received healing, unmindful of her own burns.

[18:33] * Lkeas sighs. "It must have been the Falerin he killed... the one that changed the trunk of the reality tree..."

[18:33] Selarep: It was my fire reflected at us. I have no regrets in my actions.

[18:33] Durroth: Listen to me damnit!

[18:33] Lyoko: I have regrets in your actions.

[18:33] Jeice: Durroth, how do you know of what you are spouting?

[18:33] * Damsel glances at Selarep. "You are the worst kind of fool, and you endanger us all for it."

[18:33] * Selarep tunes out Damsel

[18:33] ApexFog: I am...so a portal is being opened...

[18:34] TaloToecan: "The person pulling the strings......unless I am much mistaken, was a Terran LICH."

[18:34] Durroth: several years ago...

[18:34] Romulus: Really?

[18:34] * Darkchris76 looks at Serarep with anger in his eyes

[18:34] Durroth: Several years ago at the cemetary near orphic high school, a portal was opened

[18:34] Romulus: That's bad

[18:34] Legault: A few burns, the stinging from that bolt'll wear off.

[18:34] Durroth: by sacrifice

[18:34] Durroth: Three of me were there

[18:34] Lkeas: But how does that work? A Terran Lich?

[18:34] * Romulus moves to Legault

[18:34] ApexFog: Ok well...if you'd like some burn ointment...I can give you some

[18:34] Romulus: Need a MedPac?

[18:35] Damsel: "Wasn't Morgan...?

[18:35] Falerin: Not all Terra's are created equally I am afraid....

[18:35] Selarep: Herbs?

[18:35] TaloToecan: "Assuredly Undead. I would assume a Lich due to...well...intangible factors that are difficult to ut to words."

[18:35] Durroth: We have to stop him, I cant let that scene be recreated

[18:35] ApexFog: Ok then...

[18:35] Falerin: "Where has he gone?"

[18:35] Durroth: To kill Mariel

[18:35] * Lkeas raises her hands. "Please, everyone, calm down!"

[18:35] Falerin: "I see...."

[18:35] Durroth: He plans to kill her, the same way I killed...

[18:35] Falerin: "I will deal with him..."

[18:35] * Selarep nods at Lkeas

[18:35] * Damsel turns and reguards Falerin. "Falerin... be careful."

[18:35] Jeice: Be careful...

[18:35] Legault: ((Mariel is a he.))

[18:35] Falerin: "The rest of you...."

[18:35] * Durroth falls to the ground in tears

[18:35] * Legault stands up and leans against the wall, "I'll be fine."

[18:36] ApexFog: Ok then...it is here if you need it...

[18:36] Falerin: "You have been reduced to chaos... remember my directive"

[18:36] Romulus: You're sure?

[18:36] * Falerin looks at TaloToecan

[18:36] Romulus: It's more of a mental stimulant then anything

[18:36] * TaloToecan supports himself against the wall and struggles to his feet, dealing with the odd aftershock of systems persisting to be ot of alignment.

[18:36] Falerin: "And it is interesting to me that you have allowed your own emotion to do to you... what Ryuusei cartwright tried and failed to do"

[18:37] * Falerin gestures and vanishes

[18:37] ApexFog: What did that all mean?

[18:37] * Jeice looks around.

[18:37] Legault: Yes, Romulus, I'm fine... Takes a lot to kill me.

[18:37] Jeice: What are we going to do?

[18:37] Romulus: Okay.

[18:37] Jeice: We could attempt to follow...

[18:37] Durroth: I remember

[18:37] Romulus: ((you win, you're more stubborn))

[18:37] * Lkeas shakes her head. "Listen, it's obvious by that event that we are not quite working together yet. When danger presented itself we all ran our own way."

[18:37] Durroth: the blood... so many pieces

[18:38] * TaloToecan scowls at himself once before sinking to his knees with a thud.

[18:38] *** Macer|AFK is now known as Malcolm.

[18:38] Selarep: All right. Everyone seems to be alright.

[18:38] Jeice: On the other hand we could ask the booth for answers...

[18:38] Durroth: good idea

[18:38] Romulus: We don't know eachother well enough

[18:38] ApexFog: Well..I mean it was a confusing situation, just well...we need to have the same goal next time...instead of going off...

[18:38] Legault: We couldn't hurt him in our current state, I think he's best left be...

[18:38] Elaith: I am well enough and I must confess I do still want to hear what the booth would have to show.

[18:38] * Romulus injects Kazuma with a medpac.

[18:38] Durroth: Did I really kill him... or was it the demon... Either way I was at least indirectly responsible

[18:38] Damsel: "You wish to visit the booth, now?"

[18:39] Jeice: I wish to know what is going on.

[18:39] Durroth: I feel I must

[18:39] Jeice: What that thing was.

[18:39] * Avarie walks over to Elaith and looks over him with concern.

[18:39] Jeice: The booth could be used to wish that knowledge.

[18:39] Jeice: ...I think...

[18:39] Durroth: There is a question I need answered

[18:39] * Lkeas winces as she attempts to stand. "I'd better stay here... now that the adrenalin has worn off I think I did get injured after all..."

[18:39] ApexFog: Which is?

[18:39] Lkeas: ((*adrenaline)

[18:39] Durroth: that is my own to know

[18:39] Nick: Are you alright?

[18:40] Romulus: She'll be fine

[18:40] ApexFog: Ok then...well I mean if we are supposed to work together better, being mroe open helps...

[18:40] * Durroth pulls himself up off the ground and wipes the tears from his eyes

[18:40] Romulus: The archives prove that

[18:40] TaloToecan: "The Archives!"

[18:40] * Elaith smiles at Avarie, all of his injuries having healed through the combination of spells, and he gives her a quick peck on the cheek and a grin. "I'm alright."

[18:40] * Damsel goes over attempts to help Lkeas. "Are you all right?"

[18:40] * TaloToecan glances over towards the scrolls, his pains and shame momentarily forgotten.

[18:40] Romulus: If they did burn, I have a backup

[18:40] *** Kurama has signed off IRC (Distracted: Betrayal, betrayal; Went right through me, how you lied right through me.).

[18:40] >Ambiance<: There is in the abode a metalic sound like a taught chain under pressure snapping

[18:40] Romulus: woah!

[18:40] Durroth: what was that?

[18:40] Nick: What was that?

[18:40] * Lkeas rests her weight partially on Damsel. "I... I think so..."

[18:40] ApexFog: What was that...?

[18:40] >Ambiance<: The sound repeats three more times

[18:41] * Jeice looks around.

[18:41] Legault: ... That doesn't sound good.

[18:41] Lkeas: But.. we may need to get out of here..

[18:41] Romulus: Let's not stick around

[18:41] Darkchris76: Ermmm

[18:41] * Avarie smiles, though worridly, and takes Elaith's hand.

[18:41] >Ambiance<: The configuration of the abode alters

[18:41] ApexFog: Where are we going to go?

[18:41] * Durroth releases Nyetsubeth back into its bracelet form

[18:41] ApexFog: Wait what?

[18:41] Selarep: What the?

[18:41] * Romulus grabs Kauzma and jets out of the abode

[18:41] >Ambiance<: The front door refuses exit to Kazuma

[18:41] * ApexFog stands there confused

[18:41] Romulus: Ack!

[18:41] * Damsel tries to support Lkeas as best she can as the abode changes yet again.

[18:41] Jeice: Ugh, isn't this place protected by Falerin's power... at least a little...? What's happening?

[18:41] * Nick floats as to not fall.

[18:42] ApexFog: It is probably just changing?

[18:42] * TaloToecan remains on his knees

[18:42] Romulus: ((we're talking the user or the char?))

[18:42] * Lyoko stands up, waiting.

[18:42] >Ambiance<: The sound ceases and a grey mist rolls in covering the windows

[18:42] Durroth: what the hell?!?

[18:42] Damsel: "Limbo...?"

[18:42] Darkchris76: Oh god this is wrong...

[18:42] ApexFog: This doesn't seem so good...

[18:42] Legault: ... Is this Limbo?

[18:42] Nick: Not again...

[18:42] Durroth: No, not again

[18:42] Falerin: The mist is not like limbo at all

[18:42] Romulus: no more

[18:42] >Ambiance<: It is cold and wet and very much like mist

[18:43] >Ambiance<: Literally mist or fog

[18:43] Durroth: Where are we?

[18:43] Romulus: no more. I've had enough tourture

[18:43] * Jeice runs to a window and tries to look outside.

[18:43] * Nick sighs.

[18:43] * Darkchris76 follows Jeice but dosent look out

[18:43] * Lkeas begins swaying unsteadily and leans more heavily on Damsel. "Unnh... light-headed.."

[18:43] Selarep: I like this mist.

[18:43] Lkeas: Better... lay down..

[18:43] * TaloToecan feels the chill mist extend its tendrils through his robes, shivers as it clings and saps the warmth from him.

[18:43] Darkchris76: these kindof things scare me

[18:43] >Ambiance<: The sound of the gate bell can be heard distinctly in the fog

[18:43] * Damsel nods her head and guides Lkeas over towards a couch. "Okay. Easy now."

[18:44] Nick: Eerie Visitors...

[18:44] * Darkchris76 backs away and lowers his black hood on his robe

[18:44] ApexFog: Well...someone is here now...

[18:44] * Jeice heads over to the front door and attempts to open it.

[18:44] * Romulus closes his eyes, his helmet making sounds, as if they are attempting to give warnings

[18:44] *** ForeverEndeavor has joined #darkabode.

[18:44] * Lkeas nods her thanks to Damsel as she lowers onto the couch, her lids growing heavy. "Keep them out of trouble.."

[18:44] Durroth: If he succeeds. this isnt good

[18:44] >Ambiance<: The door opens on to Fair Harbour? At least it seems like Fair Harbor but the thick mist and odd quiet makes it hard to tell

[18:45] * Selarep heads to the door

[18:45] Jeice: Hello? Anyone there?

[18:45] * Romulus finally submits to the warnings

[18:45] Voice: from the mist

[18:45] * Nick moves to get a better view of the door.

[18:45] * Damsel mutters something about an impossible task, quietly, then squeezes Lkeas' hand gently. "I'll try."

[18:45] * Jeice walks slowly and cautiously towards the gate.

[18:45] Voice: Everyone okay in there

[18:45] TaloToecan: "First the touch of a Lich...now the chill...no more of undeath, please no more of undeath."

[18:45] * Selarep heads through the door

[18:45] Voice: We heard some cries of distress

[18:45] Durroth: Ye... yes, I think we're okay

[18:45] * Darkchris76 shreaks

[18:45] Legault: (([19:54] * Damsel mutters something about an impossible task, quietly, then squeezes Lkeas' hand gently. "I'll try." <<< ^_^))

[18:45] Durroth: but...

[18:45] Jeice: Most of us appear well enough...

[18:45] * Lkeas nods again although it's clear she's not quite there anymore. She drifts off into unconsciousness.

[21:42] * Parts: Lkeas (Lkeas@The.Archivist)

[21:42] <Legault> Yeah, we just got set on fire...

[21:42] * Durroth is obviously distressed still

[21:43] <Jeice> To live at least, but I think someone has fainted.

[21:43] <Legault> No harm done.

[21:43] <Selarep> I'll lead the exploration.

[21:43] <Voice> What? Are you daft?

[21:43] <ApexFog> Why are we going to explore?

[21:43] <Voice> We have a cleric of Chrysalia here

[21:43] <Voice> He can heal you

[21:43] <Romulus> I'm staying where it's safe

[21:43] <Romulus> it's a trap

[21:43] <Durroth> Theres alot more wrong here than just a little FIRE Legault

[21:43] <Darkchris76> Me to

[21:43] * Jeice walks the rest of the way to the gate, faster.

[21:43] * Nick laughs "Why does it have to be a trap?"

[21:43] * TaloToecan sighs in slight relief, recognizing Chrysaliaas 'safe'

[21:44] <Romulus> okay, fine.

[21:44] <Romulus> it seems to me to be a trap

[21:44] <Darkchris76> errmmm wait up guys

[21:44] * Selarep stops in front of the gate

[21:44] <Romulus> ah heckk

[21:44] * Darkchris76 rushes tword the party

[21:44] <Jeice> I'm not sure who's still injured, but it would relieve me to have someone check over them.

[21:44] * Lyoko decides to walk outside as well.

[21:44] <Durroth> you werent there, Dakota would remember

[21:44] * ApexFog follows Lyoko

[21:44] * Durroth follows Apex and Lyoko

[21:44] <TaloToecan> "Still......I am shamed....I will live with what injuries I have."

[21:44] * Romulus grabs Kazuma and walks out after Jeice

[21:45] * Jeice is looking around for the source of the voice.

[21:45] * Damsel tends quietly to Lkeas for a moment, making sure her condition is stable. "There is no shame in getting your injuries healed."

[21:45] <Jeice> Is there a reason for the escort?

[21:45] * Legault sighs and leans off the wall, half-limping towards the door.

[21:45] * Nick drifts after sighing.

[21:46] * Jeice tries opening the gate.

[21:46] <TaloToecan> "There is shame in being a constant disappointment to those who believe I have value."

[21:46] <Voice> Given the fog it seemed prudent. All sorts of cutthoats out

[21:46] <Voice> And rumors of a vampire

[21:46] <Darkchris76> errmmmm

[21:46] <Darkchris76> ok thats a scary thought

[21:46] <ApexFog> Really?

[21:46] <Nick> Vampires and Mist don't mix well...

[21:46] <Jeice> A vampire? I had not heard of a vampire in this area. This is Fair Harbour, right?

[21:47] <Nick> Seriously just for the fact that they can turn into mist, I'd rather be inside...

[21:47] <Voice> I am Dariel of the Church of Analla... This Cordel of the Church of Chrysalia. These two men are knights of the order of Greystar

[21:47] * Damsel sighs softly.

[21:47] <Dariel> can we aid you in anyway?

[21:47] * Nick turns around and walks back to the door.

[21:47] * TaloToecan brings himself back to a kneeling posture, letting his hair cover his face as he looks at the floor and listens.

[21:47] <Jeice> First, could you explain the leaf at your neck?

[21:48] * Damsel then perks up slightly at Dariel's name.

[21:48] <Voice> What this?

[21:48] <Jeice> No one is in danger of death at the moment, so I hope you forgive me for caution...

[21:48] <Dariel> It is the symbol of my godess

[21:48] * Selarep steps through

[21:48] <Nick> More of them...Wonderful.

[21:48] <ApexFog> More of what?

[21:48] <Legault> me reaches the others, "A goddess, eh? We can't really be in Fair Harbour then."

[21:49] * Nick gets inside and floats a little ways away from the door.

[21:49] * Jeice calls into the house. "Is anyone still hurt?"

[21:49] <Legault> ((Make that an action.))

[21:49] <ApexFog> ((lol))

[21:49] <Damsel> "Something's changed. Something rather critical, it would seem."

[21:49] <Durroth> well unless its already happened, it was fairly obvious we're not in fair harbour anymore in the first place

[21:49] <Durroth> Unless we just jumped through time the portal hasnt been opened yet

[21:49] <ApexFog> So...apart for the Abode changing shape, it changed location?

[21:50] * Jeice repeats himself. "Did we already take care of everyone, or are some injuries persisting?

[21:50] <Selarep> Toto, I don't think we're in Fair Harbour anymore.

[21:50] <Legault> I believe everyone is fine...

[21:50] <TaloToecan> "Nothing...that would seem to require the assistance offered."

[21:50] <Damsel> "Dariel, can you kindly tell us where we are at present?"

[21:50] <NewVoice> I would prefer if you allow me to ascertain that matter for myself.

[21:50] <Jeice> Who are you?

[21:50] <NewVoice> The security of Fair Harbour is part of my duty as master of the academy of magic

[21:51] <Darkchris76> Acadamy of Magic?

[21:51] <Durroth> The what?

[21:51] <Jeice> Then... please come in.

[21:51] * Damsel nods her head to herself. "Fair Harbour indeed. This bodes ill..."

[21:51] * Jeice steps aside for the man.

[21:51] <NewVoice> I am Melcor.... my young attendant is Frederick

[21:51] <Nick> Its sorta rude to keep them out...

[21:52] <Jeice> I have a question... that is concerning me. What do you feel about Eldron?

[21:52] <Elaith> Pleasure to meet you both, though it is disappointing it must be under investigation.

[21:52] <ApexFog> Nice to meet you Melcor

[21:52] <Melcor> What do I feel about whom?

[21:52] * Legault glances at Jeice, "I'd let them in."

[21:52] <Jeice> Eldron, or have you not heard of him?

[21:52] <Durroth> Pleased to meet you

[21:52] <Melcor> Eldron Larethian?

[21:52] <Nick> So the place we were just at...wasn't really...

[21:52] * Jeice has already opened the gate and stepped aside for the man.

[21:53] <Durroth> Great, we seem to have hopped realities

[21:53] * Melcor enters the gate with his young student in tow

[21:53] <Durroth> ((XD))

[21:53] <ApexFog> ((lol))

[21:53] * Jeice follows.

[21:53] <TaloToecan> "Or a displacement effect from a shift in the timeline."

[21:53] <Jeice> Just earlier we were in a Fair Harbour that worshipped an Eldron exclusively.

[21:53] <ApexFog> ((:p))

[21:53] <Nick> ((That'd be an odd site in the abode...))

[21:53] <Damsel> "Or somehow time was manipulated again... If somehow the Farpoint was destroyed..."

[21:53] <Melcor> Eldron Larethian?

[21:53] <Jeice> We've had a rather unsettling experience...

[21:54] <Jeice> I think that was his full name.

[21:54] <Damsel> "It is."

[21:54] <Melcor> Well I find worshiping the Prince of the Grey Elves a tad odd

[21:54] <Elaith> If you don't mind me asking... what year is it?

[21:54] <Durroth> Prince?

[21:54] <Melcor> though undoubtedly his mentor might encourage such

[21:54] <Durroth> we've definitely changed realities

[21:54] <ApexFog> Or else times...

[21:54] <Melcor> Dalamar the Grey is from Krynn and has some odd ideas

[21:54] <Durroth> or something has happened

[21:54] * Jeice grimaces.

[21:55] <Jeice> Something is wrong, then.

[21:55] <Legault> This is a mess...

[21:55] <Melcor> Year sir?

[21:55] <Durroth> We've A) gone back in time

[21:55] <Durroth> B) Gone to another reality

[21:55] <Melcor> Oh thats no question

[21:55] <TaloToecan> "Very, but the question is, what caused he shift?"

[21:55] <Melcor> Your chronological displacement is quite hight

[21:55] <Melcor> By my estimation you have gone back about 8 millenia

[21:55] <Durroth> 8 millenia? Holy...

[21:55] <Damsel> "Shades..."

[21:55] * ApexFog whistles

[21:55] <Jeice> Thank you, sir, for clearing that up for us.

[21:55] <Darkchris76> Holy ...

[21:55] <TaloToecan> "Before even the Ronin walked...."

[21:56] * Lyoko is speechless.

[21:56] * Nick sighs "Lets try not to change anything..."

[21:56] <ApexFog> It'll happen anyway...

[21:56] <Melcor> Thats patently impossible

[21:56] <Melcor> Your existance here changes everything

[21:56] <Melcor> Except I expected your arrival

[21:56] <ApexFog> Unless it was mean to happen, wait how did you expect it?

[21:56] <TaloToecan> "Paradox within paradox."

[21:56] <Jeice> how did you expect us?

[21:56] <Darkchris76> Thats odd eh

[21:56] <Lyoko> Forewarned?

[21:57] <Elaith> Divination magic?

[21:57] <Durroth> I've had people expecting me before when I went back in time

[21:57] <Melcor> Frederick told me to expect you

[21:57] <Nick> One suprise after another...

[21:57] <ApexFog> And how does Frederick know?

[21:57] <Melcor> Only not my young ward as he stand here now

[21:57] <Legault> Ehehehe, we're so imfamous that even the past knows about us.

[21:57] <Lyoko> He told you to expect a large house to appear here?

[21:57] <Jeice> Hm. Did he tell you anything else?

[21:57] * Damsel smirks humorlessly. "I am not surprised Frederick is involved."

[21:57] <Durroth> Its rather amusing to go back in time, meet someone you've never met, and find out you met them several years ago

[21:57] * Quits: Furticus (sambo_2220@Caelestia-1938E660.dial1.cincinnati1.level3.net ) (Awoke: sister's on )

[21:57] <Melcor> Frederick told me distinctly that he and I would meet you here for the first time

[21:58] <Durroth> then I got Gabriel

[21:58] <Melcor> again

[21:58] <ApexFog> How does Frederick know?

[21:58] <Melcor> No thats not quite it

[21:58] <Melcor> He said

[21:58] * Jeice groans.

[21:58] <Melcor> "He and I would meet you here again for the first time"

[21:58] <Durroth> I think I understand

[21:58] <Melcor> "Thats it...."

[21:58] * TaloToecan slowly and purposefully begins to draw his metallic-hued hair back and begins to bind it together out of his face."

[21:58] <Durroth> yes, I understand

[21:59] * Jeice addresses ApexFog. "Frederic can travel through time."

[21:59] <Melcor> "And clearly.. since Young Frederick experienced the event"

[21:59] <ApexFog> Ohhh well then...

[21:59] <Melcor> "The older one remembered the experience"

[21:59] <Damsel> "Of course."

[21:59] <ApexFog> That explains everything...

[21:59] <ApexFog> well, not everything...

[21:59] <Melcor> "Hence he was able to relate to me to be at the right location at the right time"

[21:59] <TaloToecan> "Making it, in essence, an event supposed to occur."

[21:59] * Jeice looks at the boy. Frederick before his Fizzle phase...

[22:00] <Jeice> ((""*))

[22:00] <Melcor> "Well before..."

[22:00] <Melcor> "He is nearly 2032 before that starts"

[22:00] <Melcor> "And by then I am dealing with the trouble at Dragon Blood"

[22:00] <Damsel> "This still begs the question of why we were sent to this time in the first place."

[22:00] <Melcor> "

[22:00] <Jeice> Other than meeting, is there anything else he said we were to do?

[22:01] * Nick nods.

[22:01] <Melcor> "In linear time thats about... 130 years from now"

[22:01] <Legault> Melcor, does the Farpoint exist at this time?

[22:01] <Melcor> "Young prince Eldron will be nearly an adult by then"

[22:01] <Durroth> of course it doesnt

[22:01] * Mariel appears

[22:01] <Jeice> A lich, I think Talo said, was causing trouble before we were thrown back to now.

[22:01] <Melcor> "Oh yes it does"

[22:01] <Durroth> ok... maybe it does

[22:01] <ApexFog> ((lol))

[22:01] <Melcor> "Yet none of the church of course yet know of it"

[22:01] <Legault> ((Heh.))

[22:02] <Jeice> Mariel?!

[22:02] <Melcor> "Since it has not yet been invented"

[22:02] <Nick> Mariel?

[22:02] <Melcor> "Most of the pantheon in fact do not know"

[22:02] <Elaith> Greetings Mariel.

[22:02] <Damsel> "It is good to see you, Mariel."

[22:02] <Legault> Mariel... Good to see you're still alive.

[22:02] <Mariel> Mucking with our past are you?

[22:02] <Jeice> Mariel, please, we could use some explanations.

[22:02] <Damsel> "Not by intent."

[22:02] <Mariel> Thats a serious violation of the farpoint

[22:02] <Jeice> We didn't come here by choice.

[22:02] <Jeice> A puppet caused it I think...

[22:03] * Romulus is now known as Kaz|AFK

[22:03] <Mariel> They often pretend ignorance king of Odecyia

[22:03] <Legault> And that puppet wants to kill you.

[22:03] <Mariel> It rarely helps them at their execution trial

[22:03] * Mariel is smiling crookedly

[22:03] <Selarep> Greetings, Mariel.

[22:03] * TaloToecan sighs. "Some things never change."

[22:03] <ApexFog> Wait...is this the current Mariel or the past Mariel? Or did Mariel even exist at this time?

[22:03] * Lyoko waves to Mariel.

[22:03] <Damsel> "Mariel, none I know of here have the power to violate the Farpoint in such a way and to such a degree. Clearly you can see that."

[22:03] <Nick> We aren't here on purpose...

[22:03] <Mariel> yes you are

[22:04] <Mariel> I never make mistakes

[22:04] <Jeice> Mariel, some kind of puppet attacked one of us, there was some retaliation, and the puppet left to kill you.

[22:04] <Mariel> This is precisely where I sent you....

[22:04] <Jeice> ...

[22:04] <Jeice> You, why?

[22:04] * Damsel appears momentarily surprised but recovers swiftly.

[22:04] <Jeice> If it was you, why would the crime be ours?

[22:04] <Nick> So then why punish us...If you sent us here...

[22:04] <Melcor> The farpoint of course exists.. but it would not at all do for its members to know that they exist

[22:05] <Falerin> We are gods?

[22:05] <Falerin> We were established specifically to deal with interreality irregularity

[22:05] <TaloToecan> "That...is unexpected. I would ask 'for what purpose', but asking that is irrelevant. You will either explain it to us, or leave it a cryptic mystery, as Chaos is wont to do."

[22:05] * Malcolm listens from a couch nearby

[22:05] <Mariel> Among other things

[22:06] <Mariel> Consequently... we naturally had to project our coverage of caelestia retroactively

[22:06] <Durroth> I dont see how this is going to stop them from opening that damned portal

[22:06] <Jeice> You aren't setting us up, are you? Surely you've some other purpose...

[22:06] <Mariel> Though we could not undo the major contradictions in the Caelestian timeline

[22:06] <Melcor> We could try to prevent some of the Entanglements

[22:07] <Damsel> "Falerin's death...?"

[22:07] <Falerin> Yes but it did little good

[22:07] <TaloToecan> "But would such attempted prevention cause other Entanglements?"

[22:07] <ApexFog> Probably..

[22:07] <Falerin> Only when your unravelling is not as perfect as a Gods

[22:07] <Falerin> The anchors themselves can be uncreated little one

[22:07] <Jeice> Is there something you need us to do about it?

[22:07] <Falerin> No you needed to arrive here...

[22:08] <Falerin> Initially my clone attacked you in limbo and he cast you into the past

[22:08] <ApexFog> Did Frederick mention why we were here?

[22:08] <Falerin> The event was recorded

[22:08] <Falerin> Mariel sent you to limbo in accordance therewith

[22:08] * TaloToecan gives one exasperated sigh. "At times, I wish I had near omniscience......."

[22:08] <Falerin> But when I tried to protect you and returned you to Caelestia eventualities changed

[22:09] <Falerin> We thought we could stop the assassin from arriving all together

[22:09] <Nick> But he came anyway...

[22:09] <Mariel> Unfortunately

[22:09] <Mariel> And he arrived in a new manner

[22:09] <Mariel> So I had to fulfill what history recorded

[22:09] <Jeice> So, what now?

[22:10] <Mariel> Lest Melcor and Frederick not meet you....

[22:10] <Legault> Is that clone still running free in our present?

[22:10] <Mariel> A singular chronomantic oddity that spurs fredericks fascination with temporal magic

[22:10] <Falerin> A critical juncture in fact

[22:10] <Falerin> It defines Frederick's mastery

[22:11] <Melcor> Now he met you and saw some pretty fantastic oddity

[22:11] * Damsel runs a hand distractedly over her hair, trying to grasp everything they're being told.

[22:11] <Falerin> Precsisely

[22:11] <Falerin> It is time we return to the present

[22:11] <Falerin> Lest we inadvertently add insult to injury

[22:11] * Jeice nods.

[22:11] * Damsel nods her head in agreement.

[22:11] <Nick> Of course.

[22:11] * Falerin gestures and The Abode reconfigures

[22:11] <Jeice> What will be done about the assassin?

[22:11] <TaloToecan> "Wisdom you have much more than we would..."

[22:12] <Falerin> Given how easily you turn your back on love ones to mourn others

[22:12] <Falerin> I have to agree talo

[22:12] * Falerin looks about

[22:13] <Falerin> "More or less intact."

[22:13] <Falerin> "The prophetess will be fine... just minor injury"

[22:13] <Jeice> That's good.

[22:13] * TaloToecan raises an eyebrow, but refuses to rise as others might. "I returned, and I will aid my family here and protect them. How is that turning my back, hmm?"

[22:13] <Falerin> "She needs rest.... Let Avarie and Elaith know I have not forgotten them but I have other immediate needs"

[22:13] <Elaith> Understood, sir.

[22:14] * Avarie smiles faintly. "Thank you."

[22:14] <Falerin> Ah good

[22:14] <Falerin> We shall reschedule

[22:14] <Falerin> The villa is available on that day... eternally more or less

[22:14] <Jeice> Falerin, how powerful is this assassin, and what will be done about it?

[22:14] <Falerin> Incidentally I heard mention of Tirlerion

[22:14] <Falerin> He had nothing to do with the assassin

[22:14] <Mariel> No not at all

[22:15] <Falerin> Certain beings do not approve of our nonintervention policies

[22:15] <Damsel> "That is not surprising, actually."

[22:15] <TaloToecan> "Who is the Lich from one of the many Terra?"

[22:15] * Legault cringes, "Hrm, that assassin hurt. My body still feels shocked from that bolt."

[22:15] <Mariel> Every so many years they send an incursion

[22:15] <Damsel> "The two mentionings were disconnected dispite the proximity of the warnings."

[22:15] <Mariel> Had the assassin been a threat... the Klaxon would have sounded

[22:16] <Jeice> Klaxon...?

[22:16] <Legault> The alarm in the abode.

[22:16] <Mariel> These particular ones come from a version of Terra called magiocracy prime locally

[22:16] <Darkchris76> ahh

[22:16] * Damsel nods her head.

[22:16] <ApexFog> Ok

[22:17] <Mariel> Annoying and idiotic... the clone lich was there latest attempt... they used a clone of the Terran Falerin because he matches the pattern of Falerin here... tried to remote control him though

[22:17] <TaloToecan> "A place and its name...one less unknown in this mystery."

[22:17] <Falerin> I do hope they enjoyed the feedback loop I sent along their mental link

[22:17] <ApexFog> Nice

[22:17] <Darkchris76> hehe

[22:18] <Falerin> Remind me to thank Johansen for the access codes

[22:18] * Damsel smiles slightly.

[22:18] <TaloToecan> "If it is anything like the feedback I experienced, I am sure they are thrilled to bits."

[22:18] * Lyoko smiles.

[22:18] <Mariel> Aren't you needed back on Lore?

[22:18] <Falerin> I fear so...

[22:18] <Nick> Whats wrong?

[22:18] <Falerin> Keep me posted on the matter of Tirlerion

[22:18] * Falerin vanishes

[22:18] <Darkchris76> oookkkk

[22:18] * Mariel vanishes

[22:19] <Malcolm> they seem to like doing that

[22:19] * Nick sighs and sits down.

[22:19] <Legault> They do.

[22:19] * Darkchris76 says sarcastically I love it when they do that

[22:19] * Joins: Deathbringer (duelmaster@Caelestia-650F41A8.kc.res.rr.com)

[22:19] * Reality sets mode: +v Deathbringer

[22:19] * Arden enters from the Terrace Gate

[22:19] * Damsel looks around the abode for a moment, then shakes her head.

[22:19] * Arden hands a folded peice of paper to Talo

[22:19] <ApexFog> Something wong Damsel?

[22:19] * Arden looks arround

[22:19] <ApexFog> wrong*

[22:20] <Arden> in the future I would prefer if lighting fires in my home you confine them to the fireplace or the firering outback

[22:20] * TaloToecan takes the piece of paper and looks at it septically a moment before reading it.

[22:20] <Damsel> "Sometimes we need a little more thought and a lot less action."

[22:20] * Arden ascends the steps

[22:20] * Deathbringer appears in his spot, sitting.

[22:20] <ApexFog> True...but this is a....tense situation...and more times than not, people act rather that think...

[22:20] <Selarep> (Err. I'm too tired to go on with this, I'll come back tomorrow.)

[22:21] <ApexFog> ((lol ok bye))

[22:22] <Damsel> "The problem is that it very well could result it much greater damage in the future. As it was, some of our own were needlessly but seriously injured."

[22:22] <ApexFog> Well...we know better now...at least we have seemingly learned from our mistakes

[22:23] * TaloToecan scowls at the note for a moment before folding it back up. Looking upwards at nothing in particular, he speaks softly as he lights the note aflame and burns it to cinders. "That has yet to be seen, even I cannot answer that in truth."

[22:23] <Legault> I'm still trying to figure out how a insulted that thing.

[22:23] <ApexFog> Didn't Seralep try and engage it?

[22:24] * TaloToecan whispers softly. "But I returned to bridges already burned..."

[22:24] * Damsel sighs. "I suppose at this point, trying to guess the marionette's thought process would be purely acidemic. However, Selarep's directly engaging it was... extremely foolish."

[22:24] <Damsel> ((ick. *books her spelling*))

[22:25] <Jeice> Yes, it was...

[22:25] <Jeice> But part of family is forgiving.

[22:25] <ApexFog> True...he should have been more controlled, at least the rest of us were trying to figure out what it was...

[22:25] * Elaith smiles.

[22:25] <Darkchris76> Indeed

[22:25] <Arden> Bridges even those burned can generally be rebuilt

[22:26] * Damsel nods her head. "Yes, it could have gone much worse..."

[22:26] <Arden> There is always more then one way to forge a river

[22:26] * TaloToecan glances at Arden, pain evident in his eyes.

[22:26] * Lyoko is now known as Lyoko|intehshowah

[22:26] * Damsel glances around, uncertain as to whom Arden is speaking.

[22:26] <Arden> Who however abandoned who

[22:26] <TaloToecan> "I...will not press what is no longer there."

[22:27] <Arden> Oh really... no longer here...

[22:27] <Arden> Given recent reaction to me and others

[22:27] <TaloToecan> "It was an agreement, no matter how painful."

[22:27] <Arden> I should say that the wound is quite quite raw

[22:27] * Legault heads for the door, "I'll be going, I need to rest a bit..." He walks out the door.

[22:27] <ApexFog> Goodbye Legault

[22:27] <TaloToecan> "Extremely."

[22:27] <Arden> No longer hear.... My god.. you are set upon living up to your self chosen title

[22:27] <Deathbringer> See ya Legault.

[22:28] <Arden> Family does not give up on family Useless

[22:28] <Arden> It is just not done that way

[22:28] * Damsel appears to finally understand the conversation and turns away from the others for a moment, a look of pain crossing her face.

[22:28] * Arden ascends the stairs the rest of the way looking distant

[22:28] <TaloToecan> "Just because I do not press, does not mean I have totally given up."

[22:28] <TaloToecan> "Merely that I respect their wishes."

[22:28] * Arden from the top of the stairs

[22:29] <Arden> "If thats what helps you sleep at night...."

[22:29] <Arden> "The observation is for you too Miss Stanton"

[22:29] * TaloToecan folds his arms beneath the sleeves of his robes as he heads toward the entrance. "It does not."

[22:30] * Arden enters his room

[22:30] * Kaz|AFK is now known as Romulus

[22:30] * Damsel stiffens but doesn't turn.

[22:31] <TaloToecan> "What she chooses to do about it is her choice. I heed promises made, and will not violate the promise until she has adjusted and feels ready."

[22:32] <ApexFog> Ready...for what?

[22:32] * Arden seems to be no longer listening

[22:32] * TaloToecan moves to the door and prepares to exit. "If you have need of me, I shall be watching the waves."

[22:32] * Quits: Legault (perroquite@Caelestia-BFC8348D.bois.qwest.net ) (Exterminated: When the coffee is first-rate, so is everything else. All right, let's go fight a war! )

[22:33] <ApexFog> So then....nevermind...

[22:33] * Damsel speaks softly, but loud enough to carry. "Perhaps if you would speak with me and not around me as if I wasn't present..."

[22:34] * TaloToecan thinks silently yet tellingly. 'Yet I was the one told to go away."

[22:35] * Darkchris76 walks upstairs "Im off to bed friends have a good night"

[22:35] * Falerin appears

[22:35] <Falerin> And what would I tell you Damsel

[22:35] <Durroth> ((what did I miss?))

[22:35] * Quits: Darkchris76 (Darkchris7@Caelestia-700DC5A6.tampfl.fios.verizon.net ) (Vanished: CaelIRC Webchat )

[22:35] * Damsel sighs. "No, I did not say that. I told you things had changed and that I had changed. I do not believe I ever told you to leave..."

[22:35] <Falerin> That I am disappointed

[22:35] * ApexFog smacks his head

[22:35] <Damsel> "Falerin..."

[22:35] <Falerin> Then certainly.... I am

[22:36] <Falerin> You of all people were a marked pillar of this community

[22:36] <Falerin> And that meant there was an expecation that you were resillient enough to handle whatever came at you

[22:36] <Falerin> Not that I do not know well your limits

[22:36] <Durroth> Something perplexes me now that I think about it

[22:36] <Falerin> I do

[22:36] * Jeice stays silent, not wanting to get into the current conversations.

[22:36] <Falerin> I recognize them...

[22:36] * TaloToecan moves away from the Abode, sitting to watch the waves and try to solve his pains.

[22:36] <Falerin> But that does not make them any easire to bear

[22:37] <Falerin> For I fear that even as I seek to sew family together

[22:37] <Falerin> The seeds of its dissolution are planted

[22:37] <Falerin> The little nodules of corruption

[22:37] <Falerin> That grow in the fertile soil of doubt and fear

[22:37] * Damsel stands and listens quietly, unable to meet Falerin's gaze.

[22:37] <Falerin> And it will be used be sure

[22:38] <Falerin> It will be used by the agents of the Devourer

[22:38] <Falerin> and it will be used by Tirlerion

[22:38] <Falerin> And if nothing else

[22:38] <Falerin> its sad to see what Ryuusei set out so long ago to do

[22:38] <Falerin> So completely successfull

[22:38] <Falerin> Through no need of his effort

[22:39] * Falerin turns to Avarie

[22:39] <Falerin> "

[22:39] <Falerin> "I owe you an ever bigger apology"

[22:40] <Falerin> "While your reaction to Mr. Cartwright caused me some distance from you I internalized that.. and even I had trouble seperating my feelings"

[22:40] <Falerin> "I see the two of you as one"

[22:40] <Falerin> "And ultimately that means that my disappointment is not just for ones own acts"

[22:40] <Falerin> "I hold you accountable for your analogs too"

[22:40] * Lyoko|intehshowah is now known as Lyoko

[22:40] <Falerin> "That I fear is a failing on my part"

[22:40] <Falerin> "An insufferable one that I shall need to work on"

[22:41] <Falerin> Yes Damsel

[22:41] <Falerin> I am distressed by what has come to past

[22:41] * Avarie glances at Damsel and nods her head slowly.

[22:41] <Falerin> I wish however I could say I was suprised

[22:41] <Falerin> These things are....

[22:41] <Falerin> Eminently predicatble....

[22:42] <Falerin> Avarie speak with Elaith and find an alternative date

[22:42] <Falerin> We shall

[22:42] <Falerin> Rescheudle the nupitals at earliest convenience

[22:42] <Falerin> This community needs something to celebrate

[22:42] * Quits: Lyoko (droideka_1@Caelestia-531B561D.trrhin.dsl-w.verizon.net ) (Exterminated: "Only a hero can save us, I'm not gonna stand here and wait" )

[22:42] <Falerin> Mark me well

[22:42] <Falerin> The dark times have just begun...

[22:43] <Falerin> I am trying to stop something but...

[22:43] * Falerin sighs and vanishes
