Out of Stasis
From Caelwiki
- [19:10] >Ambiance<: Arden descends the stairs
- [19:10] Hazel: ((forget that))
- [19:11] Lkeas: Greetings, Arden.
- [19:11] Elaith: Greetings, Arden.
- [19:11] * Lyoko has just awoken, and waves.
- [19:11] Daniel: Hullo!
- [19:11] * TaloToecan follows Arden down the stairs with a slightly perplexed look on his face.
- [19:12] Hazel: Hey!
- [19:13] * ZLOK looks up.
- [19:14] Eitak_Razal: Yo
- [19:14] Selarep: Hello, Arden.
- [19:14] Lkeas: I don't suppose you could clear up a bit of confusion? The plan is supposed to be to allow Arilar and Gamia to shoot Sieleidari, and then heal him before he dies and after they leave, right?
- [19:16] Lkeas: A question was raised as to why they couldn't just be prevented from shooting him all together... in a much less disruptive way than was tried last night. My understanding was that since we had seen him shot, it is now part of history, therefore should not be changed...?
- [19:17] Arden: You saw a possible future/past untill it becomes an actual one... it can be altered
- [19:18] ZLOK: That's what I don't understand, won't history be that we changed it? And if history says it has been changed, why would it be dangerous?
- [19:18] Arden: Once it becomes an actual one. Time is then fixed and changes will cause paradox
- [19:18] Arden: The point of contention appears to be at midnight
- [19:18] Arden: Which in the scenario yesterday you passed before you even transited
- [19:19] Lkeas: And yet, we arrived too early, Sieleidari had not been shot.
- [19:19] Arden: Changes to the timeline take time to propigate
- [19:19] Arden: Until they propigate you still exist for a moment in the old universe
- [19:20] Arden: And changes made to preserve that universe are NOT paradox indicusing in fact they are NORM enforcing
- [19:20] Arden: At the time the timeline catches you
- [19:20] TaloToecan: "Thus part of the nature of Paradox during the dual existances?"
- [19:20] Arden: you no longer are protected
- [19:21] Lkeas: That would make sense.
- [19:22] Lkeas: So then... should we really be discussing how to prevent him from getting shot at all, while remaining discreet ourselves?
- [19:22] Lkeas: And making the transit before midnight, of course.
- [19:22] ZLOK: Does the discretion matter? Will anyone believe what they think they see?
- [19:22] Daniel: Jinkies!
- [19:22] Lkeas: Well... I'm not sure, but our lack of discretion last night caused some very major changes, it would seem.
- [19:23] Lkeas: Even though we did manage to halt Arilar and Gamia from shooting.
- [19:23] TaloToecan: "Yet seemed to have influence The`Galin into an alternate path nonetheless."
- [19:23] ZLOK: As I see it, we need to halt them from going back and finishing the job. If they can open a temporal gate once they can likely do it again.
- [19:23] Daniel: You know what's fascinating? Illusion.
- [19:23] Lkeas: That's the other concern, yes.
- [19:25] * Lkeas glances at Daniel. "A few other seekers had suggested that as well. Planting an illusion or clone of Sieleidari for the two Silari to fire at.
- [19:25] Elaith: Simple, and if done by a skilled magician, effective.
- [19:25] Elaith: *Daniel
- [19:25] * Daniel smiles.
- [19:26] TaloToecan: "A magician is not necessarily needed."
- [19:26] TaloToecan: "Telepathic manipulation and memory plantation could achieve the same effect. Two means to the same ends, as it were."
- [19:26] Lkeas: I'm still not sure that would convince Arilar and Gamia that their mission had been a success. Would they not notice that their world had not changed?
- [19:26] Elaith: Why not attempt both options?
- [19:27] Elaith: Talo's and his, and then bring a healer as well to cover all the bases.
- [19:27] *** Grett has joined #darkabode.
- [19:27] *** Mode change "+ao Grett Grett" for channel #darkabode by Abode.
- [19:27] TaloToecan: "Potential conflicts in implementation are possible if both are employed, Elaith. Though the attempt has merit, it requires a good deal of coordination."
- [19:27] * Damsel quietly decends the stairs, listening to the conversation.
- [19:27] * Lkeas tugs at a lock of her bright pink hair. "No offense Daniel... but... your methods tend to be quite a bit unorthodox at times."
- [19:28] Lkeas: We'd want to minimize potential side effects as much as possible?
- [19:28] * TaloToecan notices Damsel joining them and gives her a breif and warm mile.
- [19:29] Daniel: My methods are, none-the-less, effective, are they not?
- [19:29] Daniel: Damsel can attest for my skill at illusion, as, I'm sure, can you, prophet.
- [19:29] * Daniel winks at Damsel with this.
- [19:30] * Elaith frowns.
- [19:30] * TaloToecan raises an eyebrow at this, but does not comment.
- [19:31] * Selarep shudders.
- [19:31] * Damsel frowns at Daniel. "What exactly are you planning?"
- [19:32] * ZLOK sews his chewn bit of hide into a backpack.
- [19:32] Daniel: Nothing. I'm just curious.
- [19:32] * Daniel smiles blandly.
- [19:32] * Lkeas watches Daniel carefully. "Just... curious? About the fate of the multiverse as we know it?"
- [19:33] * Hazel smiles slightly at this
- [19:33] TaloToecan: "That isn't exactly a promising aspect of aid, mere curiousity."
- [19:33] Daniel: It is quite a big thing, isn't it? Not physically of course, but incredibly fascinating.
- [19:34] TaloToecan: "As a being once motivated purely by curiosity...that bodes more for trouble, typically."
- [19:35] Lkeas: At any rate... if we are to change tactics and not wait for Sieleidari to get shot before arriving... we need to think about how to prevent ourselves from getting captured by Sieleidari himself.
- [19:35] * Daniel glances at Talo. "And here I thought just a little while ago you wanted the party to be larger instead of smaller like my cousin."
- [19:36] TaloToecan: "Indeed, but larger for the right and proper reasons. Curiosity alone...is rather suspect."
- [19:36] Damsel: "I am quite wary of complicating the issue. Changing the fact that it is not Sieleidari himself who gets shot means that we add a number of further things that could go wrong."
- [19:37] Daniel: I don't think it's suspect at all. I just think it's interesting enough that I want to see. Like the prophetess thinks it is interesting enough to record.
- [19:37] * Eitak_Razal smiles.
- [19:37] * Arden suddenly disappears with a pop and a hiss
- [19:37] Eitak_Razal: Do where know where the shot comes from?
- [19:37] * ZLOK quickly turns his attention to where Arden was.
- [19:37] Damsel: "If you attempt to alter the perception of what happenes to Sieleidari, how precisely do you plan on informing the true one? How do you mask the temporal distortion as we arrive, like the Silari picked up on the dream?"
- [19:37] Daniel: Ooh... he has style.
- [19:38] Lkeas: That's not exactly... why I do it.. I mean it is interesting, but it's more important that we keep a record so we can piece the clues together..
- [19:38] * ZLOK sighs, and tosses a primitive backpack at Damsel's feet.
- [19:38] ZLOK: I'm going to leave.
- [19:38] * ZLOK stands.
- [19:38] * TaloToecan raises his eyebrow again. "Ah, but she has a duty to record. And means to do so without alteration from chonological effects."
- [19:38] Damsel: "I think it's far better to arrive not long after he has been shot and deal with the matter then..."
- [19:39] * Damsel stops and considers the backpack. "What is this?"
- [19:39] Eitak_Razal: So we don't want to save him?
- [19:39] ZLOK: Consider it what you will, present perhaps. i'm going.
- [19:39] * ZLOK heads for the door.
- [19:40] Eitak_Razal: Why don't we just push him into the line of fire...
- [19:40] Lkeas: Wait, wait...
- [19:40] * ZLOK halts in his tracks.
- [19:40] * ZLOK turns his undivided attention towards Lkeas.
- [19:40] Lkeas: Didn't Arden mention something about the wave, propagating..
- [19:40] Lkeas: We were detected because we transited AFTER midnight.
- [19:40] Grett: I agree with Damsel.
- [19:40] Lkeas: The changes had already taken effect.
- [19:41] Lkeas: If we manage to transit before then, they shouldn't detect us.
- [19:41] TaloToecan: "Which means, first and foremost, that we must be sure to transit on time."
- [19:41] Damsel: "No, I don't believe that is correct Lkeas. They detected us because we were outside our own timestream. Quite a ways out in fact."
- [19:42] * Damsel nods at TaloToecan. "That I agree with, reguardless."
- [19:42] * Eitak_Razal smiles slightly... "Being of time here... I don't have a proper time stream i belive.
- [19:42] * Lkeas considers this for a moment, but shakes her head. "We were a new violation to the timestream because the changes had pushed us into the new reality. We were by that point already quasi-uncreated."
- [19:42] * Arden reappears
- [19:42] Arden: sighs
- [19:42] Arden: that is not so
- [19:42] TaloToecan: "Then, dear heart, I think arguing on that matter rather pointless if we are agreed to try and transit before midnight."
- [19:43] Arden: The chronomancy is simple. They detected you because you belonged to a timeline that did not exist.
- [19:43] Arden: Because the changes had already propigated to you
- [19:43] * TaloToecan turns to Arden and gives him his full attention.
- [19:43] Arden: Some of you in fact could have been uncreated beings
- [19:43] Arden: That induces paradox
- [19:43] Grett: Time of departure shouldn't affected anything if we don't stop the stasis before leaving.
- [19:44] * Eitak_Razal looks at arden. "As a chronosian.. I SHOULD able to avoid that... Thats in theroy... I'm not sure...."
- [19:44] Arden: Just arriving normally has negligble effect do to redundant self correction
- [19:44] Arden: Untill you effect change... nothing happens
- [19:44] Damsel: "I see. Then you were in fact correct Lkeas."
- [19:44] Arden: As we sit now the changes they made did not even occur
- [19:44] Lkeas: Alright... that's one less thing we have to worry about, I suppose.
- [19:44] Arden: As of midnight however they have
- [19:44] Eitak_Razal: So we could sit there for an hour and do nothing then leave nothing would change...
- [19:44] Arden: And thereafter you are actually not fixing a timeline. but breaking one
- [19:45] Arden: The universe favors those who repair timelines
- [19:45] * Eitak_Razal smiles a large smile
- [19:45] Arden: It does not favor those who alter them... there is backlash
- [19:45] * TaloToecan states with some amusement, "The omniverse is prejudiced."
- [19:45] Lkeas: Either way, I'd still recommend we stay out of Sieleidari's way if we meet him. That corrosive gas... ugh.
- [19:46] Arden: Yes it is
- [19:46] Arden: Like most things the omniverse favors inertia
- [19:46] Arden: It is prejudiced in favor of temporal status quo
- [19:46] Arden: It is in favor of status quo period to be fair
- [19:46] Eitak_Razal: Arden... Even if it becomes midnight and we can't do anything, some things will have changed..
- [19:47] Lkeas: Many things will change if it becomes midnight and we don't do anything.
- [19:47] Eitak_Razal: I ment changed from whats written there...
- [19:47] Arden: We do not suffer the paradox for those changes we did not enduce them
- [19:48] Arden: We do however suffer the EFFECTS of those changes
- [19:48] Arden: Which may include our ceasing to exist
- [19:48] TaloToecan: "A dire and dreadful thought indeed."
- [19:48] Eitak_Razal: Arden, how much change could one person's presance change?
- [19:48] Grett: Are we still in stasis here?
- [19:49] TaloToecan: "I would think, Eitak, it depends on what your presence DOES while there."
- [19:49] Lkeas: We know what to search for now on the laptop, we know to use the mirror. I don't think we'll waste as much time effecting the transit.. we should be ok leaving before midnight...
- [19:49] Daniel: But are we prepared for once we arrive?
- [19:49] Eitak_Razal: And Selarep can't come this time... He caused to many problems...
- [19:50] Hazel: Salarep was allowed to come the last time?
- [19:50] ZLOK: You are his sovereign?
- [19:50] Grett: I thought Rimblade was the one being fussed at last time.
- [19:50] * Eitak_Razal nods to Hazel and points the the scrolls on the table.
- [19:50] Lkeas: Let's not place blame AGAIN, shall we? I just got finished getting over that myself.
- [19:51] Eitak_Razal: They both were..
- [19:51] Hazel: ((link please if possible))
- [19:51] Lkeas: (( http://psyham.googlepages.com/theepic-chroniclesoftheseekersoftruth ))
- [19:51] Lkeas: ((scroll to the bottom))
- [19:51] TaloToecan: "Indeed. Focus on the central issues, if you will, and not what happened after the fact."
- [19:51] Hazel: ((thx))
- [19:53] Damsel: "If we know how and when to leave, what remains then is when to arrive and how to proceed once there."
- [19:53] * Eitak_Razal frowns and mutters to herself "This is why disturbance repairs should be left to professionals...."
- [19:53] Lkeas: Indeed. "Take us there!" was definitely inadequate.
- [19:53] * Lkeas chuckles darkly.
- [19:54] * Hazel takes the scroll off the table and starts to read it
- [19:54] TaloToecan: "We were, admittedly, caught quite flat-footed."
- [19:54] Grett: Personally I think the best choice of action is to ask the laptop to take you to the point in time just after the assassins could no longer detect your arrival, and heal him immediately.
- [19:55] ZLOK: If by being present we can prevent the assassins from acting, even in inaction. Is that not what we should prefer?
- [19:55] Lkeas: We've changed tactics, though. We want to stop him from getting shot all together.
- [19:55] *** Fulcan-[Awaying] is now known as Fulcan.
- [19:55] ZLOK: If they, because they have detected us, are too afraid to act...
- [19:55] * Damsel frowns. "Why? That complicates the issue many-fold"
- [19:55] ZLOK: However, that is unlikely of an assassin.
- [19:55] Eitak_Razal: Then should we shoot the shooter?
- [19:55] * Eitak_Razal produces her new Bullet whip.
- [19:55] Fulcan: "what?"
- [19:55] Lkeas: Perhaps if we arrive early enough to find places for us to hide, and make sure whatever illusion or plan we want to enact takes place is ready..
- [19:55] Grett: That makes it much harder to guarantee the results...
- [19:56] * Damsel shakes her head. "Again, you complicate things."
- [19:56] Damsel: "The longer we are there, the more we have the potential to effect..."
- [19:56] Eitak_Razal: Then go, invisable, and stop him from getting shot.
- [19:56] Lkeas: Alright, so... we arrive just in time to stop them from shooting. Then we have to do something to make sure they don't come back again.
- [19:57] Eitak_Razal: We can't kill them....
- [19:57] Grett: WHY do you want to prevent him from being shot, and alerting the assassins to some kind of interference?
- [19:57] Damsel: "You say you wish an illusion. But what will you do in reguards to the real individual? He certainly will not alter his behaviour until he sees himself."
- [19:57] TaloToecan: "That does, admittedly, remain overly complex."
- [19:57] * Fulcan vanishes.
- [19:57] Lkeas: We don't want to alter HIS behavior though. We want to make sure he... keeps on torturing... and kills Anleya and Lauren..
- [19:57] * Eitak_Razal smiles at damsel. "We go in disguise and find a reason to make him go that way late"
- [19:57] * Lkeas sighs. "All that stuff he does because he's NOT interfered with."
- [19:58] Eitak_Razal: Would slowing him down cause much of a disturbance
- [19:58] Grett: Tell him The`Galin sent the assassins.
- [19:58] Damsel: "You are again trying to alter the time stream, not repair it."
- [19:58] Grett: That will set him off on him.
- [19:58] * Hazel notes he has learned some minor wind magiks that would've been quite useful in blowing away gas described in the scroll
- [19:58] Eitak_Razal: We could create a sign that says "Road closed use alternate route"
- [19:59] Lkeas: No, Eitak.
- [19:59] Lkeas: We want him to go on as if nothing ever happened.
- [19:59] Damsel: "Attempting to heal him once shot will work in our favor, for we are working to repair. Moving him away from an event yet to occur means we are the ones disrupting it."
- [19:59] * Eitak_Razal frowns
- [19:59] Damsel: "It is a matter of wanting to be the ones to heal the time stream, not damage it."
- [19:59] Lkeas: But the shot doesn't have to happen. It is not set yet. Actually allowing him to get shot may change the reality we know right now as well.
- [19:59] Lkeas: Remember? The wave hasn't propagated. The shot hasn't taken place.
- [20:00] ZLOK: Removing the assailants before they can shoot is the least disruptive method of action.
- [20:00] Lkeas: By repairing, we need to enforce what happened prior to Arilar and Gamia ever showing up.
- [20:00] Eitak_Razal: Can we kill the shooter? That is very importent...
- [20:00] * TaloToecan moves over to Damsel and rests a hand lightly on her shoulder, projecting soothing emotions gently to her.
- [20:00] ZLOK: It is also what will give us most chance to ensure they will not retry.
- [20:00] Damsel: "Tell me Lkeas, which is more likely for success? Healing a wound or changing the mind of a fanatic?"
- [20:00] ZLOK: Through words or force, I don't specificly mind either.
- [20:00] Arden: ascends the stairs
- [20:01] * Eitak_Razal aims the bullet whip and shoots a nail on the wall.
- [20:01] Lkeas: What will be effective, though? Allowing him to be shot? That disrupts the timeline we know. What if his near assassination changes his demeanor completely? What if that assassination attempt causes him to not kill anymore?
- [20:01] ZLOK: The wound, if there is any, can render him paranoid. Which in turn will change the course of events yet again.
- [20:01] Damsel: "What you propose is infinitely more dangerous than trying to prevent it in the first place."
- [20:01] Damsel: ((Dang. said that wrong.))
- [20:01] Eitak_Razal: Again... The road closed sign can be used to stop the assaisn as well...
- [20:02] Lkeas: The assassins weren't walking... they just appeared out of nowhere, shot, and disappeared.
- [20:02] ZLOK: A simple sign will not have the determined unsteel their stance.
- [20:02] * Eitak_Razal frowns.
- [20:02] * Lkeas hands another scroll to Eitak. "You should read the situation first.."
- [20:02] Lkeas: (( (Link: http://psyham.googlepages.com/arilarandgamia)http://psyham.googlepages.com/arilarandgamia ))
- [20:02] * Damsel sighs, clearly frustrated.
- [20:03] * Eitak_Razal skimed it
- [20:03] Lkeas: Listen... we're trying to enforce the norm, as Arden put it, right?
- [20:03] Damsel: "It comes down to this: Do you trust your own judgement about the potential alterations of the time stream over the knowledge and recommendations of a god?"
- [20:04] Lkeas: Is Sieleidari's death the "norm?"
- [20:04] Damsel: "Matthew believed the time stream would favor our healing because it would be a repair of what was supposed to occur and work to correct itself. What you are suggesting is simply a further deviation."
- [20:04] Grett: I think we should do exactly what Matthew suggested.
- [20:05] Eitak_Razal: And what if worse changes occor.
- [20:05] * Damsel shakes her head. "His death is alteration, as you know. But that is why we interfere in the first place."
- [20:05] Grett: He won't have died if he is healed.
- [20:05] Eitak_Razal: But it will change him
- [20:05] Abode: Why can you not simply pull the offenders out of Lore before they can make changes
- [20:05] Grett: And he will still go after The`Galin if you give him a reason to.
- [20:06] Lkeas: Because Matthew told us not to, house.
- [20:06] Abode: Rather then send yourselves back.... take them outright out of the timestream
- [20:06] Grett: I was of the impression they have roles to play in history too...
- [20:06] Damsel: "We have been told that is impossible thanks to Tirlerion's key."
- [20:06] Grett: I shied away from the idea of messing with them because of it.
- [20:07] Abode: Yes but not THERE they do not. You can send them back to their proper time at will
- [20:07] Abode: So long as they do not... effect the change and actually get back where they belong
- [20:07] Abode: There seems to me to be no foul
- [20:07] * Hazel is lost in the scroll
- [20:07] Grett: So the laptop... it can override the key?
- [20:07] Grett: Can it destroy the key?
- [20:08] Eitak_Razal: I want to see this laptop in person..
- [20:08] Abode: The hell if I know I did not make the key
- [20:08] Damsel: "No, he is saying that they are not protected once in the frame of Lore's time stream."
- [20:08] TaloToecan: "We still are attempting to do the work of gods as mortals, in trying to understand the ramifications of Each and Every possibility."
- [20:08] Abode: It is a Relic class artifact though. Made by a god
- [20:08] Abode: That is not relevant tho.. the Key is caelestian
- [20:09] Lkeas: Hang on, let me get this suggestion straight. You mean we shouldn't go back in time at all, but catch them while they're still OUT of time all together?
- [20:09] Abode: Neither they or the place they are changing are
- [20:09] * Eitak_Razal gestures to the bullet whip in her bag. My new weapon is a weapon class artifact...
- [20:09] Abode: Well more like the second they appear. its kind of hard to grab them out of the vortex
- [20:10] Abode: Matthew is you should know... a spectacular showman
- [20:10] * Hazel puts down the scroll and abrubtly walks outside
- [20:10] Eitak_Razal: "I can exist outside the flow of time with damage to myself... I can do it.
- [20:10] Abode: He rarely teleports without massive effects
- [20:10] Abode: Light sound etc
- [20:11] Lkeas: Okay, so... nab them when they're in Lore. Grab the key, and shove them back to their time... and... Tirlerion won't bother helping them again?
- [20:11] * Daniel perks up. "Sounds like my kind of fellow."
- [20:11] Abode: He is not neccesarily suggesting the best course... he could as readily be suggesting the most spectacular
- [20:11] Abode: Force them to give up the key
- [20:11] Abode: This is war
- [20:11] Abode: But if you do that here on caelestia
- [20:12] Abode: They are at least not unravelling the multiverse
- [20:12] Abode: Incidentally no chronomacny will work while we are in stais
- [20:12] Abode: Stasis is a state of true nontime
- [20:13] * Lkeas looks over at Damsel. "I'm still confused. How can we make them give up the key while they're on Lore, if we're not there ourselves?"
- [20:13] Abode: So it blocks all time based magics
- [20:13] TaloToecan: "A very ironic concept for something borne of Clockwork."
- [20:13] Abode: I speak... what... polish?
- [20:13] Abode: You take them off lore to calestia
- [20:13] Abode: You beat the shit out of them
- [20:13] Damsel: "The Abode is not telling you to make them give up the key on Lore. It is suggesting catching them at that point in time and transporting them to Caelestia at *our* point in time."
- [20:13] Abode: You steal their key
- [20:14] Eitak_Razal: Can i test my weapon out on them?
- [20:14] Abode: And then throw them back to their own world without the means to leave again
- [20:14] Abode: It is simple
- [20:14] * Eitak_Razal wants to shoot them in the leg.
- [20:14] * Lkeas looks a bit sheepish. "Oh..."
- [20:14] ZLOK: Wasn't that what I suggested?
- [20:14] Daniel: Just curious, do you know how the key works?
- [20:14] ZLOK: Or was that what I was beeing suggested?
- [20:14] * ZLOK looks down himself for a moment.
- [20:15] Damsel: "What is the chance of failing to actually move them forcefully from that time to ours?"
- [20:15] * Eitak_Razal snaps bullet whip's whip and then shoots a nail on the wall.
- [20:15] Grett: As fun as that sounds, something has come up back home. Manifesting my power on Caelestia might not be a good idea anyways, so I guess I'll have to catch up later.
- [20:15] Abode: Login Abode
- [20:15] * TaloToecan glances over at ZLOK. "It is...ironically similar, but perhaps more refined given the complications inherent of the situation."
- [20:15] *** Legault has joined #darkabode.
- [20:15] *** Mode change "+v Legault" for channel #darkabode by Abode.
- [20:15] *** Grett has signed off IRC (Vanished: Grett).
- [20:15] Computer: Login Activated
- [20:15] Computer: Welcome to CaelOs Enhanced
- [20:15] Eitak_Razal: Since when can the abode talk?
- [20:16] Lkeas: The abode is also an avatar of Falerin's.
- [20:16] Durroth: didnt we put that thing back in the statue?
- [20:16] * Legault walks into the abode, "Evening, did we come up with a plan?"
- [20:16] * Durroth blinks at eitak
- [20:16] Durroth: Where were you when the box challenged it to a duel?
- [20:16] Abode: Trace Gamia and Ariliar the moment they arrive on Lore and prepare a spell to transit them that out within 1 nanosecond of appearing
- [20:16] Lkeas: Hey, um. Don't we have to be out of stasis?
- [20:16] Eitak_Razal: I was here... I just never asked thats all.
- [20:17] Computer: Construcing Program
- [20:17] Eitak_Razal: It didn't respond then though...
- [20:17] * Damsel smiles faintly.
- [20:17] Computer: Progran Constructed per request
- [20:17] Elaith: It's preparing so our task is easier. That's nice.
- [20:17] * Legault looks up, "This house is a genius."
- [20:17] Durroth: seriously, if anything can access the laptop while its in the statue, why do we bother?
- [20:17] TaloToecan: "Constructing the program and preparing the task before the clock starts ticking is wise."
- [20:17] Lkeas: That's true.
- [20:17] Abode: Shall I drop stasis or what?>
- [20:18] * ZLOK looks at Lkeas.
- [20:18] * Lkeas grins and slips her hand under the couch to pull out her Salvation Blade. "Beat the shit out of 'em, you say?"
- [20:18] Fulcan: ( Wait, we're fighting?! )
- [20:18] Fulcan: ( WHAT AM I DOING? )
- [20:18] * Damsel looks at the others. "Is there any reason we should not act on this tomight?"
- [20:18] Legault: (( xD ))
- [20:18] Eitak_Razal: I don't want to kill them
- [20:18] Abode: All nonsentient objects within my boundaries become extensions of me Durroth
- [20:18] Durroth: ah
- [20:18] Durroth: that explains it
- [20:18] Elaith: No reason I can think of.
- [20:19] *** Hazel has signed off IRC (Ping timeout).
- [20:19] Durroth: ok, as long as not just any random person can access it
- [20:19] * Eitak_Razal would shoot the wall but doesn't want the abode to yell at her.
- [20:19] Daniel: I'd be more than happy to help rid these meddlers of the key.
- [20:19] * Daniel smiles.
- [20:19] Durroth: I like Lkeas idea
- [20:19] Abode: Shall I drop stasis or what?>
- [20:19] Durroth: ok, naps over nyetsubeth
- [20:19] Durroth: interface 3
- [20:19] * Beo would shoot Legault but doesn't want the abode to yell at him
- [20:19] Beo: Er...
- [20:19] Beo: *eitak
- [20:19] * ZLOK closes his eyes and withdraws under his hood.
- [20:19] * TaloToecan idly focuses a majority of his mental capacity on telepathic incapcitation techniques. "Give us a moment or two, please, Abode."
- [20:19] * Durroth raises his right hand and Nyetsubeth flows from bracelet form into Sword form
- [20:19] Damsel: "Is there any reason at all we should not act on this now?"
- [20:19] Eitak_Razal: Hmm?
- [20:20] * Eitak_Razal shakes her head.
- [20:20] Durroth: ... I said interface THREE! not two
- [20:20] TaloToecan: "I merely am giving others a chance to ready their arms in advance, so to speak, in asking for a moment."
- [20:20] * Durroth glares at the sword and it shifts a bit
- [20:20] Durroth: better
- [20:20] Abode: I am now dropping stasis
- [20:21] Elaith: "Drop stasis and run program please." sounds good to me.
- [20:21] * Damsel nods and steps to one of the walls of the room, planning on staying out of the way.
- [20:21] * Eitak_Razal has a ball of energy in one hand, the bullet whip in the other.
- [20:21] * Daniel wonders if he'll be able to grab the key.
- [20:21] Abode: Preparing for Reentry into the time stream at 23:31:59
- [20:21] * Selarep appears.
- [20:21] Damsel: "I suggest attempting not to kill them, though the retrieval of the key needs to be first priority."
- [20:21] * Fulcan warps in.
- [20:21] Abode: We have entered the timestream
- [20:21] * Lkeas growls a little under her breath, almost animalistically.
- [20:21] >Ambiance<: The clock begins to tick again
- [20:21] * Durroth raises his sword and it begins to flow out around him like a chain or wire
- [20:22] Fulcan: "What's going on?"
- [20:22] Legault: So... We're planning to take the key by force?
- [20:22] TaloToecan: "Abode, please direct the laptop to run the aforementioned program."
- [20:22] Abode: Run program
- [20:22] Durroth: Interface 3, flowing chains
- [20:22] Computer: Program will take 4 minutes
- [20:22] * Daniel attempts to cast an illusion that would make him look like Sieleidari.
- [20:23] * Lkeas winks at Damsel. "It's not as though I really know how to use this thing... maybe we can scare them though."
- [20:23] * Fulcan notices Durroth and Lkeas holding blades, and turns to Durroth, "What is going on?!"
- [20:23] Durroth: ((Its not in blade mode, right now it looks like a long thin metal tentacle))
- [20:23] Abode: Planning your assassination Fulcan
- [20:23] Eitak_Razal: We're ready to "Beat the crap out of" The assasin.
- [20:23] Selarep: ...
- [20:23] Abode: The moon phase is not right yet tho
- [20:23] Legault: Hehehe.
- [20:23] Durroth: Ha.Ha.Ha.
- [20:23] Fulcan: "What?"
- [20:23] Durroth: very funny abode
- [20:23] Abode: Standby
- [20:23] TaloToecan: "The hope is...or rather my hope is...that blades and other weapons may be rendered entirely unnecessary."
- [20:24] Selarep: Err...yeah...
- [20:24] Lkeas: We're going to just... intimidate them into giving up the key. If possible.
- [20:24] Durroth: well this is just for if we have to restrain them
- [20:24] TaloToecan: "Abode, where is the precise location of their enforced translocation here?"
- [20:24] Legault: Expect the unexpected.
- [20:24] Eitak_Razal: It was the buildings Idea.
- [20:24] Durroth: but cant they just use it as soon as they get here?
- [20:24] Eitak_Razal: ...
- [20:24] Fulcan: "Wait, that was a joke, right? Right?"
- [20:24] Eitak_Razal: No pointing out flws in the plans...
- [20:24] * Tirlerion appears
- [20:24] Durroth: yes
- [20:25] Legault: Yes, Fulcan.
- [20:25] Durroth: aw shit
- [20:25] Eitak_Razal: (*Plans))
- [20:25] Durroth: interface 2
- [20:25] * Eitak_Razal blinks
- [20:25] * Fulcan turns to Tirlerion, "Thought so, Legault."
- [20:25] * Durroth snaps back into sword mode
- [20:25] * Tirlerion You have no interface that will effect me Durroth
- [20:25] Durroth: I know
- [20:25] Durroth: but its useless to be in interface 3 if your gonna stop us
- [20:25] Tirlerion: Who said I would?
- [20:25] Durroth: ...
- [20:26] Durroth: well thats usually what you do
- [20:26] * Lkeas turns to Tirlerion and her face pales a bit, but she maintains her grip on her weapon.
- [20:26] Damsel: "Well, this is distinctly unsurprising."
- [20:26] Tirlerion: Usually perhaps
- [20:26] Tirlerion: Mot interested in doing so now
- [20:26] * Eitak_Razal frowns
- [20:26] * TaloToecan frowns heavily and steps relatively between Tirlerion and the rest. "Please, focus on the task at hand."
- [20:26] Durroth: I mean, you go out of your way to toy with us
- [20:26] Tirlerion: Save reclaiming my property at the time it is taken
- [20:26] Lkeas: So you'll just what, give it back to them again?
- [20:26] Eitak_Razal: Your here JUST to get the key?
- [20:26] TaloToecan: "Retrieving your Relic?"
- [20:26] Computer: Program Activating
- [20:27] Eitak_Razal: Its starting!
- [20:27] * Daniel frowns. It seems nobody is interested in the idea of him having the key.
- [20:27] * Durroth frowns, still somewhat suspicious, his face for a brief moment taking on yuri's features to emphasize his distrust
- [20:27] >Ambiance<: A window opens upon the world of Lore
- [20:27] * Lkeas curses and turns to the window.
- [20:27] Selarep: ....
- [20:27] * Durroth turns to the window
- [20:27] * Eitak_Razal turns to it as well
- [20:27] >Ambiance<: Arilar and Gamia appear for a split second and then are grabbed in barely visible flash. Their presence barely long enough for the human eye to have moticed
- [20:28] * Fulcan continues looking at Tirlerion for a moment, before turning to the window.
- [20:28] * Legault turns his attention to the screen.
- [20:28] * Eitak_Razal smiles
- [20:28] * Arilar and Gamia appear with a loud crack of lightning and blue bolt hangs there
- [20:28] Eitak_Razal: Hello!
- [20:28] Durroth: Good evening
- [20:28] * Arilar The'Galins agents are stopping us
- [20:28] * Damsel watches quietly.
- [20:28] Daniel: Hello, you two! Can I have the key?
- [20:28] Durroth: We... are not!
- [20:28] * TaloToecan turns to face the 'targets' with mechanical speed and attempts to come to grips with them mentally in preparation to render them unconcious without unnecessary brutality at a whim.
- [20:28] Gamia: we prepared for this long ago love.
- [20:29] Eitak_Razal: We're not his agents!
- [20:29] * Damsel moves to errect a barrier around the blue bolt in order to prevent physical entry
- [20:29] Arilar: I loved you always
- [20:29] Legault: No, we're trying to stop The'Galin. You're just getting in our way.
- [20:29] Elaith: We are not agents of The`Galin. However, what you are doing has major repercussions on the timestream.
- [20:29] Durroth: They're not listening, they're too stupid to listen to us
- [20:29] Gamia: And I you
- [20:29] Arilar: Do it
- [20:29] Eitak_Razal: We just want the Key and I will not shoot you
- [20:29] Durroth: see?
- [20:29] * TaloToecan acts to render them unconcious.
- [20:29] Durroth: they're too friggin stupid to even hear a word we say!
- [20:29] ZLOK: I hate self-destructors.
- [20:29] Elaith: I do ask that you reconsider before you uncreate 6/7 of the current timeline.
- [20:29] * Lkeas 's eyes blaze as she regards the two Silari.
- [20:30] * Damsel frowns quietly.
- [20:30] * Eitak_Razal has the bullet whip pointing back nd forth between their heads.
- [20:30] Gamia: You want the key, You wish to stop us. There exist only those who serve the'galins purpose and those who do not. What you do obliterates my entire race
- [20:30] Gamia: You may call yourselves whatever you wish. You are agents
- [20:30] Lkeas: And what YOU do obliterates countless more!
- [20:30] Durroth: And what you do obliterates a good portion more!
- [20:30] Damsel: "What you do obliterates an entire multiverse."
- [20:30] Gamia: Indivials not Races
- [20:30] Dale: (( Very nice. XD ))
- [20:30] Durroth: You know nothing of the crunch!
- [20:31] Gamia: And it merely replaces them with analogs
- [20:31] Gamia: Who never knew the pain of The'
- [20:31] Gamia: Galin
- [20:31] Lkeas: Analogs? The entire race of Drakel...
- [20:31] Gamia: Do it now love
- [20:31] * Damsel shakes her head quietly.
- [20:31] * TaloToecan continues to focus purely on the mental effort to reach their minds and shut them down.
- [20:31] Arilar: Do it
- [20:31] * Daniel charges Arilar *
- [20:31] * Eitak_Razal points the bullet whip at them.
- [20:31] * Daniel attempts to tackle Arilar *
- [20:31] TaloToecan: "I do believe they are shielded from my efforts."
- [20:31] * Durroth throws several chains from his sword at gamia
- [20:31] >Ambiance<: There is a bright flahs of light and fire
- [20:31] * Lkeas growls and rushes towards Gamia with her sword hilt aimed at his head.
- [20:32] >Ambiance<: Arilar and Gamia literally explode
- [20:32] Selarep: ...
- [20:32] * Eitak_Razal blinks
- [20:32] * Legault jumps back, "Ugh..."
- [20:32] Eitak_Razal: What just happened?
- [20:32] Durroth: I... I dont know
- [20:32] * ZLOK attempts to get in between the explosion and Lkeas.
- [20:32] >Ambiance<: A large chunk of the abodes wall blasts out and the house begins to burn
- [20:32] Legault: Self-Detonation.
- [20:32] Selarep: That's what I want to know...
- [20:32] Durroth: Interface 1
- [20:32] * Lkeas is thrown into one of the couches forcibly by the blast.
- [20:32] Eitak_Razal: We should get out off here.
- [20:32] * Daniel is thrown backwards and instinctively turns into a puddle.
- [20:32] Fulcan: "Nice."
- [20:32] * Durroth lowers his arm and Nyetsubeth returns to bracelet form
- [20:32] Tirlerion: Suicide bombing. I suggested it as the best course should they be captured
- [20:33] Selarep: Terrorists...
- [20:33] * Eitak_Razal frowns.
- [20:33] Tirlerion: I gave them the technology too
- [20:33] Fulcan: "Ass."
- [20:33] * Damsel makes a noise of disgust.
- [20:33] Tirlerion: Terrorists are only called that because they lose
- [20:33] Durroth: Note to self: Why the hell am I starting to use verbal commands again when I havent needed them for 9000 years
- [20:33] Eitak_Razal: You wanted the key back... Why not just take it back!
- [20:33] * TaloToecan moves swiftly to recover and refocuses his mind on the nature of Flame from where he is sprawled after the explosion. His attempts therefore are focused on snuffing the flames.
- [20:33] Tirlerion: No I said I planned on taking it from you since it was mine
- [20:33] Tirlerion: I wanted them to have it to begin with...
- [20:33] TaloToecan: "And I assume you gave them technique or technology to avoid mental influences?"
- [20:34] Elaith: The explosion was just the prize in the crackerjack box?
- [20:34] * Lkeas lays dazed on the cushions, the sword dropping from her hands. "Z-zlok..."
- [20:34] * Selarep tries to bury the flames in Twilight.
- [20:34] Tirlerion: No I just directly shielded them myself personally USELESS
- [20:34] * Eitak_Razal frowns...
- [20:34] * Tirlerion gestures and the key appears
- [20:34] * ZLOK gets up and moves to Lkeas, reasserting his hood over his darkened face.
- [20:34] * Fulcan scowls.
- [20:35] * Eitak_Razal would use the whip to get the key but she's not the dumb
- [20:35] * Damsel who had begun to see to the injured, turns to Tirlerion with a frown and narrowed eyes, though she remains quiet.
- [20:35] * Daniel and Elaith both frown, the similarity quite striking.
- [20:35] Tirlerion: I shall also be recording the fact that falerin's guests and clerics directly interefered with my clerics causing their death
- [20:35] * TaloToecan smirks slightly as he rises to his knees and focuses the bulk of his mind still on the flames by Pyrokinesis. "Shielded them, or merely rendered myself inert?"
- [20:35] Legault: Dang it...
- [20:35] Tirlerion: This means war of course
- [20:35] Eitak_Razal: You caused their deaths!
- [20:35] Lkeas: Help me up.. I think I'm... okay..
- [20:35] Eitak_Razal: You gave them the abilty to blow up
- [20:35] Fulcan: "War..."
- [20:35] * Tirlerion laughs "technicalities"
- [20:35] Durroth: Told you he was up to no good
- [20:35] * Tirlerion vanishes
- [20:35] Durroth: and they killed themselves
- [20:36] Legault: ... Lovely.
- [20:36] *** Krosha has joined #darkabode.
- [20:36] * ZLOK helps Lkeas up, and picks her sword up for her.
- [20:36] Eitak_Razal: I need to goo home and think this over... I can't take this any more...
- [20:36] * Eitak_Razal vanishs
- [20:36] Legault: He knows how to play his cards...
- [20:36] * Durroth swears under his breath in his native tongue
- [20:36] Selarep: Ugh...
- [20:36] Damsel: "I knew when he appeared this plan was poor. It was too late by that point, unfortunately."
- [20:36] * Eitak_Razal reappears
- [20:36] TaloToecan: "Abode, can you detect if you have recently been influenced towards the specific course of action just taken and applied?"
- [20:36] * Damsel shakes her head and moves to help and treat the injured.
- [20:36] Legault: ((Eitak thinks fast/))
- [20:36] Lkeas: I think... any plan we could have enacted would have resulted in his interference..
- [20:36] Abode: I am dying
- [20:36] * Krosha fades into the abode in his normal spot.
- [20:37] Abode: I am continuing to burn
- [20:37] Durroth: we need water!
- [20:37] * Legault looks at the fire, "We need water, now."
- [20:37] Legault: ((Jinx!))
- [20:37] TaloToecan: "I cannot seem to extinguish the flames, or exercise any such control.
- [20:37] * Selarep rushes into the kitchen.
- [20:37] * Fulcan walks outside, looks around, turns to Lkeas before he exits, "You're from Nautica. Can't you do something, hm?"
- [20:37] Lkeas: Well, only part..
- [20:37] * Selarep turns the faucet.
- [20:38] * TaloToecan raises an eyebrow as he observes the flames more closely. "Oh...my..."
- [20:38] Fulcan: "Give it a shot, at least."
- [20:38] Elaith: Can't we use the laptop to extinguish the flames?
- [20:38] Fulcan: "Better to help than to watch."
- [20:38] * Damsel turns to Daniel. "Shades, for as often as you've splashed those here, can't you do something?"
- [20:38] * Fulcan kicks off the ground and flies off into the sky.
- [20:38] * Selarep carries the water to the fire on a "path" of crystallized Twilight.
- [20:38] Elaith: I remember my first time with everyone, the laptop extinguished the flames in the bookstore.
- [20:38] * Legault concentrates and generates a ball of water in his hands, tossing it at the flames, "Doubt that will do anything..."
- [20:38] TaloToecan: "Laptop. Login Talo-Toecan."
- [20:38] Krosha: I have some ever frost that I can use.
- [20:39] * Dale yawns. "Your empty threats of a god war hold no ground, Tirlerion. Neither myself nor Elaith, the only clerics here, did anything to interfere save speaking."
- [20:39] Daniel: Me? What would you like me to do?
- [20:39] * Legault drops to the ground after casting the ball of water, "And... There I go again."
- [20:39] Computer: Login Useless requires telepathic verification as optical scan is not available for this life type
- [20:39] * TaloToecan seems quite desparate for the laptop to respond, as his mind races with evaluations.
- [20:39] * Selarep continues to attempt to encase the flames in Twilight.
- [20:39] Computer: Will you permit mental scan'
- [20:40] * TaloToecan attempts to telepathically connect simultaneous with his voiced, "Indeed. Scan, and hurry."
- [20:40] ZLOK: Prophet, are you damaged?
- [20:40] Computer: Access to Talo-Toecan Granted
- [20:40] * Damsel growls softly in frustration at what she considers Daniel's purposeful hinderence. "Try and put out the flames, of course."
- [20:40] Computer: Welcome to CaelOS Enhanced Where would you like to go today
- [20:41] TaloToecan: "Laptop, are you capable of containing an Elemental of some power into an a vessel of containment?"
- [20:41] TaloToecan: "Rather than just mere transport?"
- [20:41] Daniel: Oh, fine.
- [20:41] Computer: Negative. You have a cleric substantial enough in level to cast abjure
- [20:41] Computer: Shall I force summon Elaith
- [20:41] *** Fulcan has signed off IRC (Ping timeout).
- [20:41] Durroth: Hes right there!
- [20:41] Lkeas: I think I'm ok ZLOK... but as I'm not on Lore I don't think Nautica will be able to help out here.
- [20:42] Computer: Well then i recommend he abjures the elemental
- [20:42] TaloToecan: "Elaith? Cast Abjure on the flames! Don't ask, just cast!"
- [20:42] Elaith: Ok. Hurrying.
- [20:42] * Elaith attempts to cast the spell recommended by the computer.
- [20:42] TaloToecan: "If the Abjure attempt fails for whatever reason, can you transport the Fire Elemental to its home plane and away from this place?"
- [20:42] * Lkeas looks at Talo. "What's abjure? Why couldn't we just throw water from the garden hose on the fire?"
- [20:42] >Ambiance<: The flames let out a shriek and Elaith takes minor first degree burns but the creature is abjured to the plane of elemental fire
- [20:43] >Ambiance<: The Remaining flames peter quickly without their elemental source
- [20:43] * TaloToecan sighs in very evident relief. "That was no oridinary fire...Abode! Would Clerical healing help to save you!?"
- [20:43] * Dale walks outside, putting his hands behind his and and sighing. "Silly Tirlerion. I have to wonder if he was honestly serious about that war..."
- [20:43] Abode: I am effecting repair I will not be responsive during this period
- [20:43] Elaith: Get well soon, Abode.
- [20:44] * Damsel smiles faintly. "That is a relief."
- [20:44] * Krosha jumps further away from the flame.
- [20:44] * Daniel turns into a puddle then back, in response to Damsel's request.
- [20:44] >Ambiance<: The damage begins is slow heal. By the rate of lessening char you can guess it will take at least 12 hours
- [20:45] Legault: ((Daniel is a Vaporeon?!))
- [20:45] Daniel: ((Daniel is a water and illusion mage primarily.))
- [20:45] Selarep: (XD)
- [20:45] Daniel: ((He's just not helpful.))
- [20:45] ZLOK: Would someone check if our plan was at least successful?
- [20:45] * TaloToecan turns to Elaith directly. "Can you attempt to contact Falerin via prayer, and let him know what has occured here? Tirlerion not only engineered this war, but also directed a first strike."
- [20:45] Legault: My gut isn't wrenching this time.
- [20:46] * Damsel mutters something about Daniel being completely worthless under her breath.
- [20:46] * Daniel is grinning complacently.
- [20:46] TaloToecan: "Laptop, could you acknowledge ZLOK's request?"
- [20:46] Arden: I am aware of it (vacntly(
- [20:46] * Arden descends the stairs
- [20:46] Elaith: I can attempt to, but it would be perhaps easier just to tell- nevermind.
- [20:47] * TaloToecan seems to sigh in great relief yet again.
- [20:47] * Arden The abode is my avatar... do you not think I would notice an avatar taking such injury and then a cleric calling upon me to grant an anjuration to the plane of elemental fire
- [20:47] * Lkeas nods to ZLOK, although she appears to be smiling already. "I think we may have managed it... but yes, a confirmation would be good..."
- [20:48] TaloToecan: "I...am not sure what to Think right now. I merely was still in a state of proactive Reaction."
- [20:48] Arden: Tirlerion did this exactly as he planned to begin with. There can be little doubt that regardless of the path you selected the outcome was bad.
- [20:48] * Damsel makes certain that everyone is in decent health, then leans against the wall.
- [20:49] Arden: Selecting to serve the Uncreator was bound to cause intense trouble no matter how it worked out
- [20:49] * Arden falls over asleep
- [20:49] Lkeas: But... we did restore the timeline... didn't we?
- [20:49] * TaloToecan proceeds to Log Out of the laptop in a telepathic manner, and turns back to Elaith with a nod of thanks. "Thank you for your alacrity, and your trust."
- [20:49] * Lkeas shrugs helplessly.
- [20:49] ZLOK: Er...
- [20:49] Legault: We weren't helping him... We were saving him so we could stop him later.
- [20:49] ZLOK: That can't be good.
- [20:49] Krosha: Just warn me if im on fire I want to keep whatever skin I have left.
- [20:49] *** Ras has joined #darkabode.
- [20:50] Elaith: Not a problem. It was to maintain the proper timeline after all.
- [20:50] Elaith: Anyone here would do the same.
- [20:50] * Daniel twirls his wand idly.
- [20:51] Durroth: well, the fires gone now
- [20:51] * Lkeas turns to Damsel. "Serving the Uncreator causes trouble...? What does that mean for our..."
- [20:51] Damsel: "I suppose we must wait to see what this means for Caelestia."
- [20:51] Damsel: "And for us as well."
- [20:51] ZLOK: Noone will attend Arden?
- [20:51] * Dale sighs.
- [20:51] Durroth: I think I'm going to go lay down and pretend I didnt almost soil myself over fire
- [20:51] * Durroth collapses in the nearest chair
- [20:52] Selarep: ...I didn't need to know that...
- [20:52] Legault: How many gods actually would side with Tirlerion though?
- [20:52] * Elaith ponders for a moment. "Anyways, you are welcome."
- [20:52] Durroth: ((Durroth is terrified of fire))
- [20:52] Dale: Any that don't know him
- [20:52] Selarep: (>.>)
- [20:52] Legault: Erm... I wish we had a rough estimate.
- [20:52] TaloToecan: "Even a single ally makes this war that much worse."
- [20:53] * Damsel sighs and moves to help Arden onto a couch, addressing ZLOK. "This is relatively common when Falerin's precense vacates his avatar."
- [20:53] ZLOK: Silly.
- [20:53] Krosha: ((Im undead, if anyone forgot me))
- [20:54] * Damsel struggles obviously with Arden's weight but manages after a time to position him on a couch.
- [20:55] * Lkeas seems to be thinking rapidly and her speech seems more like recollection of another's words. "An agent... do you even understand what it means..."
- [20:55] * Durroth breathes slowly and deeply
- [20:56] *** Krosha has signed off IRC (Ping timeout).
- [20:56] * Damsel glances worridly at TaloToecan
- [20:56] *** Krosha has joined #darkabode.
- [20:57] * TaloToecan seems to fold inwardly onto himself, in the manner of the exhausted and despairing, before voicing softly. "Falerin will not, apparently, act against this. He has anticipated it, or so I was told."
- [20:57] TaloToecan: "And he sends his regards."
- [20:58] * Damsel nods her head quietly.
- [20:58] * Lkeas shakes her head and she moves towards ZLOK, TaloToecan, and Damsel. "Just remember last night, and know it could have been much worse.."
- [20:58] * TaloToecan promptly sprawls out and begins sobbing silently.
- [20:58] * Damsel hesitates a moment and then goes to TaloToecan's side, resting a hand on his shoulder.
- [20:59] Krosha: ((what happened last night ive been to sick to log on lately...))
- [20:59] * Durroth mutters to himself about flames
- [21:02] * TaloToecan shivers softly at first contact of Damsel's hand and continues to sob quietly.
- [21:02] *** Brink has joined #darkabode.
- [21:02] *** Mode change "+v Brink" for channel #darkabode by Abode.
- [21:04] * Daniel simply falls asleep... standing.
- [21:04] * Elaith sits in his usual spot, thinking.
- [21:04] * ZLOK puts a hand on Lkeas' shoulder.
- [21:04] * Lkeas sits on the armrest of the couch, watching TaloToecan and Damsel. "We did do... the right thing, didn't we, ZLOK?"
- [21:05] ZLOK: Yes.
- [21:05] * Krosha rubs a skeletal hand over his bald head.
- [21:05] ZLOK: We performed admirably.
- [21:05] Lkeas: It means Ryuusei is back...
- [21:05] * Lkeas shudders.
- [21:05] *** LordBarrius has joined #darkabode.
- [21:05] *** Mode change "+ao LordBarrius LordBarrius" for channel #darkabode by Abode.
- [21:05] * ZLOK shrugs.
- [21:05] * Brink stands, his ears down as if scared, his tail's also downward.
- [21:05] ZLOK: Self-sacrifice in the name of divinity, the devourer, and our struggle.
- [21:06] * TaloToecan seems to sob slightly harder at the mention of Ryuusei.
- [21:06] Computer: Message
- [21:07] * Lkeas sighs and addresses the computer. "Yes?"
- [21:07] Computer: You have mail
- [21:07] Lkeas: Alright, bring it up, please.
- [21:08] The'Galin: Twice you have aided me and twice I am in your debt
- [21:08] * Brink walks over to Lkeas, his tails and ears still down. He lies down at her feet.
- [21:08] The'Galin: Thank you for killing my wife and causing my death
- [21:09] The'Galin: You have preformed well
- [21:09] Selarep: ...
- [21:09] * Elaith frowns.
- [21:09] The'Galin: The'Galin son of Galian
- [21:09] * Damsel jerks as if struck and moves to face the computer screen
- [21:09] Durroth: ... Somehow having the uncreator in our debt is slightly unnerving
- [21:09] * Lkeas frowns. "That wording is a bit... "
- [21:09] Legault: ... I guess we did our job.
- [21:09] Brink: Sereal?
- [21:10] Durroth: less unnerving than fire, but still enough to scare me
- [21:10] Lkeas: We were just restoring things to how they were..
- [21:10] * Damsel speaks in a whisper. "The'Galin..."
- [21:11] * Lkeas hangs her head. "That wording... it doesn't seem like... the one I met... the one who took Sakel..."
- [21:11] * TaloToecan shifts slightly into Damsel, no longer able to fight the urge to cling gently to her, still sobbing after the combination of words thought clearly and words painfully heard and comprehended.
- [21:12] Legault: Or were you just thinking bably of him for taking Sakel?
- [21:12] Legault: ((Badly*))
- [21:12] Lkeas: Not badly, not at all...
- [21:12] * Selarep tilts his head to the side.
- [21:12] * Damsel wraps her arms around TaloToecan, somewhat reflexively, as she stares quietly at the now-silent computer.
