Session Ident: #OtherSide
* Logging #OtherSide to 'logs\\#OtherSide.Caelestia-IRC-Network.log'
* Ness attempts to form a small waterball in order to see if he can and what kind of backlash will occur
* Lanfire frowns stepping out.
<Lanfire> "
<Lanfire> "Let me guess. He did not show"
* AlastorRyst holds his hand out, trying to summon the Dawnblade
<AlastorRyst> No.
<Ness> Indeed, not
<Daniel> No, he did not.
<Ness> I take it you're Lanfire
<AlastorRyst> Alastor Fulcan Ryst, at your service, Lanfire.
<Daniel> I am Daniel. Pleasure to meet you.
* Ness bows to Lanfire "Ness."
<Daniel> Last we saw, Elaith, my cousin, was uttering a prayer requesting his presence.
* Ness looks around
* AlastorRyst frowns, separated from his sword
<Amilara>

He was completely absent. Given his high profile on the world of my origin I am very leery of this to begin with. Are you sure he does not serve the Calamity?
<Ness> Nice place. Very evil villain.
<AlastorRyst> Amilara.
* Ness looks at Amilara
<Daniel> To be honest, we do not know much of Falerin besides what he offers us.
<Lanfire> I am his Avatar Amilara. I can hardly be more sure then I am.
* Amilara looks at Ness
* Ness bows to Amilara "I suppose we should at least have an introduction if we're going to have this prisoner-captor relationship. I'm Ness."
<Daniel> I'm Daniel, though you undoubtedly heard my greeting to Lanfire.
* AlastorRyst lowers his arms, and stands proudly, "Alastor Fulcan Ryst."
<Amilara> "You pettifog the word evil in an very pococurante consuetude. Is such a custom of your coeterie. If it is the manner of Lord Falerin I can see this will be an errant errand"
* Ness chuckles
<AlastorRyst> ( Um... what? (
<AlastorRyst> )
<Ness> I meant no offense to you.
<Daniel> We by no means reflect on Falerin. We receive scoldings from him quite frequently.
<Ness> It was a joke.
<Daniel> He does seem to believe we have the will to better ourselves though, or he would undoubtedly have long past given up on us.
<AlastorRyst> I'm only here because I owe him my life.
<Amilara> "Further. You are not a prisoner. A prisoner is impressed. We have engaged in no such impressing"
<AlastorRyst> Good to know, I'm sure.
<Ness> Clearly the Brilhado don't have a sense of humor.
<Daniel> I do know however, that Falerin was recently upset. He fears he sent a close friend to demise.
<Amilara> "Your decision to come was Volitional"
<Lanfire> he cannot afford a sense of humor
<AlastorRyst> It was.
* Ness looks intently at Amilara "Fascinating. I've never seen a Brilhado before."
<Amilara> "Indeed I cannot. To do so would be an excercise in insipidity."
<Ness> Are we privy to the terms of the agreement between you and Falerin?
<Amilara> "Falerin has sought to secure our aid in preventing the movement of the Calamity's tesselation"
<Ness> Hm.
<Ness> I thought the Brilhado served The'Galin
<Amilara> "He has promised us a method of free travel off of this plane without the apprehension of my kin"
<AlastorRyst> What was the Bargain you two made?
<AlastorRyst> ..
<AlastorRyst> Never mind then.
<Daniel> He will show. I trust him.
<Ness> And the need for the show of force and the theatrics?
<Amilara> "Amercement needs be done for our state is precarious at the best of times. Were our location discovered by my brethren my life would be mulct"
<AlastorRyst> ( Did either of you log this since the start? )(
<Daniel> ((Of course))
<AlastorRyst> ( And Fal, you forgot Nick )
<Daniel> Ah. We would not want to void your life.
<Amilara> The conversion has already been ordered by the Calamity.
<Ness> Do you use big words to talk down or to try to sound smart?
<AlastorRyst> I know, I'm lost.
<Daniel> Our presence here is at Amilara's grace. I would not forget manners.
* Nick has joined #OtherSide
<AlastorRyst> ( There we are )
<Lanfire> "Neither. The means by which he translates his native tounge into one you understand is rather imperfect"
<Daniel> Basically we are needed as a penalty for the valuable time we are wasting.
<Ness> I know what he meant.
<Ness> I was curious
<Lanfire> "It selects the MOST precise equivalent to the sentiment he is offering"
* Ness shrugs
<Ness> Ah.
<Lanfire> "It is not familiar with idiom at all"
<Ness> I see.
* Ness turns to Amilara "I meant no offense to you. I truly was curious."
<Amilara> "It is a spell from Caelestia"
<AlastorRyst> What are the magic boundaries here?
<Amilara> Your accusing me of bombast is of little acceptation.
<Daniel> I am curious. Is Falerin expected to appear here, or at the abode?
<Nick> So if Falerin doesn't show, our lives are Forfiet then?
* Ness bows "Apologies."
<Lanfire> there is very little restriction... Magic obeys the law of the rulers of the Land however. Use any powerful magic and its detection is assured.
<Lanfire> You stand in the Dark World
<Amilara> It was here that the Brilhado were first cast 1000 years ago
<AlastorRyst> I am darkness, it doesn't bother me at all.
<Amilara> Dark has nothing to do with darkness.
<Ness> I wonder
<Amilara> There is a very bright sun that rises outside. However it is an unlight.
* Ness whistles, attempting to call Dictada
<AlastorRyst> Unlight?
<Nick> The Brilhado have stayed her ever since?
* AlastorRyst holds out his hand, trying to summon the Dawnblade again
<Daniel> Absence of the Light Lord's powers?
<Amilara> Darkness refers to the defabrication
* AlastorRyst grips the Dawnblade in his hand, and examines it
<AlastorRyst> It does work.
<AlastorRyst> Unlight is the lack of the Light?
<Amilara> No.
<Amilara> Unlight is unlight.
<AlastorRyst> ...
<Amilara> Lack of Light is dimness
<AlastorRyst> Might I take a look at it?
<Amilara> Lack of Darkness is also dimness
<Amilara> Unlight is Unlight
* Ness shrugs
<Daniel> What causes unlight?
<Amilara> The Defabricated Star
<Lanfire> If I might suggest a more foreful translation. Unlight is Antilight.
<Ness> Ah
<Lanfire> Light composed of Antiprotons
<Ness> Fascinating
<Lanfire> Or Antiphotons
<AlastorRyst> Can I see your sun?
<Daniel> So like Antimatter vs. Matter?
<Nick> The Opposite of Light that isn't darkness?
<Lanfire> Or something.
<Ness> No, Nick
<Ness> That is the opposition
<Ness> I believe Unlight is the TRUE opposite of Light
<Ness> The EXACT opposite
<Nick> How exactly did this...er...Realm come to be?
<Daniel> What happens if Unlight collides with Light then?
<Amilara> Obliteration
<Ness> Well
<Amilara> Or Nothing
<Ness> Think of it this way.
<AlastorRyst> Where's the exit of this cave?
<Amilara> An photon is its own antithesis
<Ness> Antimatter colliding with matter is litterally the most explosive force possible
<Ness> So
<Ness> Heh...
<Ness> Complete conversion of matter into energy.
<Daniel> So by not causing Obliteration, we do not contain any Light?
<Daniel> Or is our Light, if it exists, just not exposed to the Unlight?
* Ness shrugs
<Ness> Let's put it this way
<Ness> We're in a cave
<Ness> Don't leave
<Ness> Bad idea.
* Nick sits down and sighs
<Daniel> I just am curious about how things work.
<Ness> I'd rather not find out first hand.
<AlastorRyst> I'm so curious.
<Ness> Alastor
<Ness> Don't
* AlastorRyst rolls his eyes
<Amilara> Photons are not encased.
<AlastorRyst> So are we just going to sit here and learn about photons or what?
<Amilara> Beings do not have photons
<Amilara> Though they can emit them
<Ness> We are moving past the world of elements into the world of physics.
<Lanfire> Two waves of light can be self cancelling
<Amiliara> that is it precisely. The sun of this world is the cancelling of the sun of any living world.
<Nick> That is neat
<Amiliara> By itself it too grants a kind of light.
<Ness> Indeed it is
<Amiliara> However if you were to cast magics that produce light. Or utilize devices.
<Amilara> They would instead cast darkness.
* AlastorRyst spins the Dawnblade in his hands, "Can't you find something to keep me busy? I'm not really paitent."
<Amilara> Fire for instance burns black here.
<Nick> Are the Brilhado still all here? or did they all...erm...Move on?
<Daniel> There are several moving about.
<Amilara> Plurium Interrogationum
<Ness> Uhh
<Ness> What?
<Amilara> What that one has inquired
* AlastorRyst sits down on the ground, closing his eyes, clearly bored
<Amilara> it is
<Amilara> Plurium Interrogationum
* Ness looks at Lanfire "Translation?"
<Daniel> multiple questions I think.
<Nick> Many Questions it means
<Lanfire> It does mean multiple or many questions
<Lanfire> I believe Falerin would say....
<Nick> Means that I asked a question where the answer is already presupposed
<Lanfire> Mu
* Daniel cracks a smile *
<AlastorRyst> Mu...
* AlastorRyst stands up and heads to where the undead and Brilhado are
<Daniel> So, Amilara, apart from the present situation, how do you fare?
<Amilara> While on a version of Terra I once saw a most uninspiring sign at a truck stop.
<Amilara> It said
<Amilara> "Eat here, Get Gas"
* Daniel laughs *
<Amilara> Used cars for sale: Why go elsewhere to be cheated? Come here first!
* Nick chuckles
* AlastorRyst examines the nearby beings, "Hello, do you talk?"
<Undead> We speak Halfbeing.
<AlastorRyst> Come again
<AlastorRyst> ?
<Undead> We speak Halfbeing.
* Ness chuckles
<AlastorRyst> What's that?
<Daniel> My favorite sign is one that says Caution: This sign has sharp edges.
<Undead> Partially defabricated
<Ness> No, no, the best is the one that says
<Amilara> There are no stupid questions. Only stupid people.
<AlastorRyst> Ooh.
<AlastorRyst> So, what are we waiting here for?
<Ness> Warning: Touching wire will result in instant death. Anyone found doing so will be prosecuted.
<Daniel> I probably fit in that category. I have much to learn.
<Undead> Our ultimate defabrication likely.
<Undead> Our excercise in volition shall be met with defabrication most assuredly.
<Undead> Our exorcise of our volitional capacity
<AlastorRyst> What's going to happen to me?
* Ness looks at Alastor
<Ness> Yeah, about that...
<Amilara> Defabrication awaits all should the Calamity prosper.
<Ness> I told Nox to proceed with, uh, well...Ix...
<Amilara> Defabrication is the Calamity's ultimate end.
<Daniel> Hopefully Calamity will be offset a bit by the Lorians.
* AlastorRyst turns to Ness, "You did WHAT!?"
<Ness> Well...Nox said something about a cleansing and I figured any "cleansing" had to be better than loss of memory...
<Daniel> I understand there are a good deal on the world of LORE that side with creation, though one known as Epheel seeks to spread dissent.
<AlastorRyst> Oh my gods...
<Ness> What? What'd I do?
* AlastorRyst walks around in circles, his fingertips on his forehead
<AlastorRyst> Their goal is similar to that of The`Galin.
<AlastorRyst> But on one plane.
<AlastorRyst> At least Ix's is, and perhaps Xent.
<AlastorRyst> Nox... well... he's an idiot.
<Ness> What?
<Ness> Xent said he didn't wish the operation to go ahead.
<AlastorRyst> They're going to destroy my realm.
<Ness> Dammit, Alastor. You could've TOLD me that earlier, Alastor.
<Amilara> I matters not
<AlastorRyst> Yeah? When I was in their custody!?
<Amilara> If the Calamity proceeds that realm will be destroyed anyway
<Ness> No, when I asked about them before!
<AlastorRyst> I didn't know then!
<AlastorRyst> God...
<Ness> Well...
<Lanfire> Who granted them access to Falerin's home.
<Ness> I'll talk to Xent. He seems reasonable.
<Lanfire> It is unpenetrable to hostiles.
<Ness> They're not hostile to Falerin's realm
<AlastorRyst> What have I done..
<Lanfire> Without some sort of exterior assistance
<Amilara> You misapprehend the nature of the protections of that realm
* AlastorRyst stops walking, "Ix is powerful, undoubtedly he helped."
<Amilara> It is why we needed Lanfire's helpt
<Amilara> For we are not hostile to Caelestia either
<Lanfire> he is correct. The protections there are rather unconcerned about Caelestia.
<Ness> Hell, what does hostile mean, anyway?
<Lanfire> They are concerned with the Denizens of that realm. It's welcome inhabitants.
<Ness> Well, they're not hostile to Alastor directly....
<Lanfire> Someone had to invite the hostiles in for them to superceede that protection if they mean harm to ANY inhabitant therein
<Lanfire> The magics involved were created by a God. Do you think they can be decieved by deliberated attention.
<Lanfire> Amilara did not even know any of you. He had no intention of harming you directly either.
<Lanfire> His nature however is such that his presence is a harm
* Ness looks at Alastor
<Lanfire> The Devourer has ordered Amilara raised as nonsentient undead and the destruction of any Brilhado or Undead who willingly Follow him.
<Lanfire> Allow me to return them to Caelestia Amilara. Please.
<Ness> What?
<Lanfire> I have been honest and if I need to die.... I will go volitionally. I will even allow you to recoporeate me to aid your cause in defiance of Falerin's will if he fails to show. I give you my bond on that.
<Amilara> "I do not know. Lanfire. I understand your sentinment. I do not wish harm to come to any. But I know the price. All of these undead would be rendered mindless or defabricated by the Calamity"
<Amilara> "We cannot afford risk. If they have loose lips beyond the boundry and My Father or the others come...."
* Daniel looks between the two beings as they converse, deciding not to interfere *
<Lanfire> if that happens I will fight along side you as undead myself.
<Lanfire> I will obey you utterly.
<Lanfire> I will allow you to use a soul constraint or geas on me willingly
<Lanfire> But please. They are of more use against the Calamity with others of their Like.
<Lanfire> And maybe they can relate something of what they have learned to Falerin and encourage his more immediate attention.
<Amilara> "It may cost me my being"
<Amilara> "However I will capitulate"
<Daniel> I can help Elaith modify his prayer to incorporate a more pressing need
