Connecting the Dots

From Caelwiki

[17:07] * Diviara appears

[17:07] * Kazuma perks up upon somebody appearing.

[17:07] * Damsel smiles lightly. "Diviara. A welcome return to you."

[17:08] Diviara: Welcome is it.

[17:08] Diviara: That remains to be seen.

[17:08] Diviara: Where is my Son.

[17:08] Dale: Amilara? I haven't seen him lately.

[17:08] * LordBarrius looks up and nods a greeting to Diviara. "We haven't seen him since a few days prior."

[17:08] * Diviara speaks in an odd stilted fashion his interogatives stated more clearly as declaratives

[17:09] Damsel: "Aye, that's the truth of it."

[17:09] * Diviara narrows his eyes

[17:09] Diviara: "You are not hiding him are you."

[17:10] * Damsel chuckles. "He won't even come inside this building. Nay, we certainly are not hiding him, nor do we know of his location."

[17:10] Diviara: "Very well then"

[17:10] * Diviara goes to the door and opens it

[17:10] * Diviara exits the Abode into the forest

[17:10] * Diviara turns

[17:10] Diviara: "Where is my Nephew"

[17:11] * Damsel grows more serious, her smile fading. "Talo-Toecan? I... I don't know."

[17:11] * LordBarrius tilts his head. "Erm...." He turns to look at Damsel, hoping she can provide an answer.

[17:11] * Dale follows Diviara to the door. "I... Don't know. He vanished a few days ago. Something about the Truth of Tau... Do you know of it?"

[17:11] Dale: (( >_> ))

[17:12] * Diviara scowls

[17:12] Diviara: "I will find my son...."

[17:12] * Diviara flies off into the Forest

[17:12] * Damsel sighs, a hint of sadness to it.

[17:13] Amilara: would you just give me to him then

[17:13] * Amilara lands silently by the building watching his father fly off into the woods reticently

[17:14] * Damsel stands and exits the abode to better speak with Amilara.

[17:14] * Dale waves to Amilara. "Hello there."

[17:15] Damsel: "I was unaware of anything that we said that would 'give you up.'"

[17:17] Amilara: He knows that I am here

[17:17] * Damsel nods. "Aye, but not by our doing. That was the hand of the Man in Black at work."

[17:17] * LordBarrius stands and silently steps outside with the others, his eyes drifting through the treeline briefly before turning to Amilara. "Yes, so we have noticed."

[17:18] Amilara: "You did not appear prepared to disuade him from seeking me or send him away"

[17:19] Amilara: "The Archivist posted the logs unedited"

[17:19] Amilara: "All is lost"

[17:20] * Damsel appears saddened at the proclamation. "It may not be. Not yet. I for one don't share your conviction about Diviara's nature."

[17:20] * Diviara returns

[17:21] * Diviara lands

[17:21] Diviara: "A conviction you may well have cause to regret"

[17:21] Diviara: "I am loyal to my lord"

[17:21] * Diviara turns to Amilara

[17:21] * Damsel bites her lower lip, uncertain.

[17:22] Diviara: "You are to come with me at once"

[17:22] * Amilara spits in Diviara's face

[17:22] * LordBarrius frowns at this, unsure how to respond.

[17:22] * Diviara scowls wiping the spittle away

[17:22] Amilara: You may as well kill me here murderer.

[17:23] Amilara: I shall never go with you willingly....

[17:23] * Lkeas is pulled out of her studies by the commotion outside, and steps outdoors to see the two brilhado. She freezes, her face paling. "No..."

[17:24] Diviara: "You realize your presence here puts every life in this place in danger"

[17:24] * Dale turns to Lkeas. "You may want to stay back..."

[17:24] Diviara: "Ryuusei Cartwright already abhors these persons for hindering him"

[17:24] * Damsel freezes, having taken a step forward.

[17:24] Diviara: "He will kill them all to extract and punish you"

[17:24] Diviara: "Their blood shall be your baptismal font"

[17:25] *** Alastor has joined #darkabode.

[17:25] Diviara: "Are you prepared to bathe in it my son"

[17:25] * Lkeas walks over next to Dale and Damsel, never taking her eyes off of Diviara. "What do you intend to do with him?"

[17:25] *** Mode change "+v Alastor" for channel #darkabode by Reality.

[17:25] Alastor: Diviara...

[17:25] * Diviara looks at Lkeas with a sidelong glance

[17:25] * LordBarrius remains silent in observation.

[17:25] Diviara: "That is not your concern Prophetess"

[17:25] * Alastor looks at Diviara, an unclear expression on his face

[17:26] * Damsel shakes her head. "It is. He is our friend. His fate concerns us all."

[17:26] Diviara: "And haven't you already done damage enough. You have revealed through your choices that not only is my son harbored here but a sizeable renegade batallion as well"

[17:26] * Diviara turns back to Amilara

[17:27] * Lkeas scowls. "The information was already made clear by the time I revealed them. You knew of his whereabouts through no fault of mine."

[17:27] Diviara: "I did not...."

[17:27] Diviara: "Cartwright did...."

[17:27] Diviara: "That was however all he knew"

[17:27] Diviara: "You however gave him a map to Amilara's 'friends'"

[17:27] Lkeas: Did I now?

[17:27] Lkeas: Where are they, then?

[17:28] * Diviara looks at Lkeas

[17:28] Diviara: "Shall we play a little game Prophetess"

[17:28] Diviara: "It is called connect the Dots...."

[17:28] Diviara: "Logic does not require much of us...."

[17:28] * Alastor looks at Diviara sternly, but stays silent, not wanting to make a wrong move.

[17:29] Diviara: "Fact 1) Dragon threatened you once before about your archive so it is clear he monitors it"

[17:29] Diviara: "Fact 2) Your archive revealed that Amilara has undead hidden on Caelestia"

[17:29] Diviara: "Fact 3) Your archive contains an accounting of the very perfect place on Caelestia to deposit and hide such an army"

[17:30] Diviara: "Fact 4) Ryuusei Cartwright is aware of facts 1-3"

[17:30] Diviara: "Can you connect the dots Prophetess?"

[17:30] Lkeas: How did you come to the conclusion that they were on Caelestia?

[17:30] * Lkeas shakes her head. "I don't see it... I was careful..."

[17:31] Diviara: "Not careful enough"

[17:31] Diviara: "You missed one fact...."

[17:31] Diviara: "We know Amilara"

[17:31] Diviara: "He would never send them so far away that he could not safely care for and monitor them"

[17:31] Lkeas: But... how did he discover Amilara in the first place...

[17:31] Diviara: "he has protected them with his life"

[17:31] Lkeas: Until his discovery had been made known to us there had been no record...

[17:32] Diviara: "For that you must look to the Node of the Cor-Dem"

[17:32] Diviara: "He knew of the presence of Amilara because he spyed upon you"

[17:32] Diviara: "Let me show you the offending entry"

[17:32] * Diviara closes his eyes bringing something to mind

[17:34] Diviara: [22:10] <Voice> But sir I can see people in it... it seems larger then it looks somehow... and what is that purple thing� there it looks so odd. It is entrancing. NO SIR PLEASE NOT THAT. DO NOT USE THAT ON ME. PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEE

[17:35] Diviara: He saw Amilara with his own eyes

[17:35] Diviara: That was not your fault

[17:36] Diviara: Though his hatred of you is what made him spy on you to begin with

[17:36] *** Alastor is now known as JackBauer.

[17:36] Diviara: Your consistent interference from the beginning

[17:36] *** JackBauer is now known as Alastor.

[17:37] Diviara: The end of that log however

[17:37] Diviara: has this gem

[17:37] * Lkeas wraps her arms around her as if chilled. "I know what it says."

[17:37] Diviara: <Amilara> The only fortunate thing is that the cover of those I care for has not been so compromised

[17:38] * Damsel winces, nodding.

[17:38] * LordBarrius frowns.

[17:38] Kazuma: hmm...

[17:38] Diviara: Untill that point Cartwright assumed the undead were left behind

[17:38] Lkeas: I... I had thought it was vague enough...

[17:38] Diviara: On the dark world

[17:38] Diviara: But that statement

[17:38] Lkeas: But you just said yourself he would not have left his friends behind.

[17:38] Diviara: Meant he should look closer

[17:38] * Alastor averts his gaze slightly, and yawns

[17:38] Lkeas: You could have connected the dots without that log...

[17:38] Diviara: "Maybe.... but not as easily"

[17:39] Diviara: "We did not know HOW amilara got here"

[17:39] Diviara: "We did not know if it was in fact voluntary or some manipulation of the Caelestian"

[17:39] Diviara: "As he is so very tied up in this"

[17:39] Diviara: "That log made it clear"

[17:39] Diviara: "He was here of his own will"

[17:39] Diviara: "And even more his friends were still protected"

[17:39] Diviara: "Then we just read back"

[17:39] Diviara: "And you know... immertot really is a fascinating place"

[17:40] * Diviara turns back to Amilara

[17:40] Diviara: "You come with me"

[17:40] * Lkeas grits her teeth. "What are you going to do with him!"

[17:40] Diviara: "...or are you prepared to bathe in their blood and death"

[17:40] Diviara: "...are you prepared to prove yourself really my son...."

[17:41] * Damsel steps forward to be by Amilara's side. "I would ask that you allow him to stay."

[17:41] * Alastor frowns, and simply watches

[17:41] Diviara: "Prepared to give them up to the Cold perhaps"

[17:41] Diviara: "Will you prove to be like your father after all"

[17:41] Diviara: "Or will you come with me"

[17:42] * Amilara hangs his head resignedly

[17:42] Lkeas: Don't go, Amilara.. we need you..

[17:42] *** Lyoko has joined #darkabode.

[17:43] Damsel: "I would take the risk if it allows one I consider a friend to remain free of certain hands."

[17:43] * Lyoko appears in a bolt of lightning.

[17:43] * Lyoko brushes himself off.

[17:43] Lyoko: Hey guys.

[17:43] Mariel: He will not be going anywhere

[17:44] Alastor: Shh, Lyoko.

[17:44] * LordBarrius breathes a sigh of relief at the sound of Mariel's voice.

[17:44] Diviara: "Who are you then"

[17:44] Mariel: I am Mariel

[17:44] * Damsel smiles very slightly, her eyes shining with relief.

[17:44] * Alastor smirks

[17:44] Mariel: "The Chaos God...."

[17:45] Mariel: "Your son is under the protection and surety of the Farpoint and is a naturalized Caelestian citizen."

[17:45] Mariel: "As such an Extraplanar power shall not be extraditing him by force"

[17:45] Mariel: "If you wish to persue formalized relations please register your complaint with Serian McCallister the God of Law"

[17:46] Mariel: "Untill such time you will not be removing Amilara or any of his friends from Caelestia"

[17:46] *** Althyn has joined #darkabode.

[17:46] *** Mode change "+v Althyn" for channel #darkabode by Reality.

[17:47] Mariel: "Furthermore I will be seeing that said beings are safely relocated outside of Immertot Forest. There exist alternatives. You are advised not to search for them. If we detect you attempting to violate the terms of our safety"

[17:47] Mariel: "We shall have to take more DRASTIC measures"

[17:47] Diviara: I do hope you are prepared for what you have wrought then

[17:48] Mariel: I am sure I can manage

[17:48] Diviara: You do not know Ryuusei Cartwright.

[17:48] Mariel: I will deal with Mr. Twain when the time comes

[17:48] * Lkeas smirks. "I thought you said he was an upstart."

[17:48] * Diviara smiles at this proclamation of Mariel's thinly

[17:48] * Diviara frowns again and looks at Lkeas

[17:48] Diviara: He is....

[17:48] Lkeas: You are supposed to be the true servant..

[17:49] Diviara: But a very dangerous upstart

[17:49] Diviara: With inexplicable power and influence and all of NOVA at his disposal

[17:49] Diviara: He will not rest Prophetess

[17:49] Diviara: I promise you that....

[17:49] Diviara: And I cannot always interfere with his technology

[17:49] * Diviara vanishes

[17:49] * Damsel inclines her head at Diviara's words. "I would not have expected otherwise."

[17:49] * Alastor grins widely

[17:50] Mariel: Come with me Amilara

[17:50] * Lkeas shakes her head. "How did he get in here, anyway... the protections of the Farpoint..."

[17:50] Mariel: Make your goodbyes

[17:50] * Mariel looks at Lkeas purposefully

[17:50] Mariel: "Falerin long ago gave that individual free access"

[17:50] Mariel: "Such was never rescinded"

[17:51] * Mariel reappers

[17:51] * Mariel redisappears

[17:51] Alastor: ( ...? )

[17:51] Amilara: "I suppose I am going then"

[17:51] Amilara: "To parts unknown"

[17:51] * Althyn considers what he's just heard, and decides it's time to look for a chaser to his earlier ale instead of speaking.

[17:52] * Amilara sighs

[17:52] Lkeas: Mm. I wonder if Falerin still considers him redeemable?

[17:52] * Damsel turns to Amilara. "I am sorry for the trouble we've caused you. I wish you and your friends well."

[17:52] Amilara: This forest had become a home

[17:52] Amilara: A stable home for a long long time

[17:52] * Lkeas turns to Amilara. "I must apologize... it is my fault, I fear.."

[17:52] Amilara: At least compared to any other I have ever had

[17:52] Amilara: It was not your fault Prophet

[17:52] Amilara: It was not avoidable

[17:52] Lkeas: If I had just kept that log a secret like the rest..

[17:52] Amilara: The Calamities Armies would not have stopped

[17:52] Amilara: You were quite right.

[17:52] * Lkeas sighs heavily.

[17:52] Amilara: They would always look.

[17:52] Amilara: Beware my father.

[17:52] Amilara: He is a dangerous man.

[17:53] * Amilara vanishes

[17:53] * Diviara reappears

[17:53] Diviara: Oh yes one last bit of buisness....

[17:53] Alastor: Diviara...

[17:53] * LordBarrius eyes Diviara. "'Business?' What sort?"

[17:53] Diviara: Gil Viara is dead

[17:53] * Dale gulps.

[17:53] Diviara: I thought you should like to know

[17:53] * Damsel appears startled. "What? How?"

[17:53] * Lkeas 's eyes widen in shock. "What? Why!"

[17:53] Alastor: ...

[17:54] Lkeas: We didn't even have a chance to see him..

[17:54] Diviara: Ryuusei killed him

[17:54] Dale: Bastard....

[17:54] * Diviara turns away

[17:54] Damsel: "For what reason?"

[17:54] Diviara: "When I next encounter you.... I may give you the same gift myself"

[17:54] * Diviara vanishes
