The Epic - Session LIV: Part 2

From Caelwiki

[18:43] >Ambiance<: A vast city streteches before you it seems oddly familiar
[18:43] Elenor: I think I've seen this before, somewhere..
[18:43] Kazuma: hmm
[18:44] Durroth: mmm?
[18:44] Kazuma: déjà vu
[18:44] * Little_Brown_Box perches snugly upon Rimblade's shoulder, observing everything with a calm and dignified air that somehow makes it look even more rediculous than it would have had it maintained its usual demeanor.
[18:44] * Akiro Looks about the area. "Interesting."
[18:45] * Both Damsels look about, having taken the hands of their respective loves, not wishing to be seperated during transit.
[18:45] Fiona: "Isn't this... Where we found the journal entry...?"
[18:45] Tirlerion: We appear to be on a south eastern continental landmass
[18:45] * Elenor casts a simple light spell, testing if magic worked on this dead Lore.
[18:46] * Eitak_Razal looks up from being seated on the ground. "Hey! Who brought me here! I was at home a... Oh.. Hi guys
[18:46] Genoclysm: Deren, maybe?
[18:46] >Ambiance<: The city does indeed look like Tjeli City but there are notable differences... There is a total lack of ice
[18:46] Kazuma: oh. Hi Eitak.
[18:46] Rimblade: "Fascenating place, LORE.  Wouldn't you agree, Counterfeit?"
[18:46] Tirlerion: No Deren is further east still
[18:46] Little_Brown_Box: Er...not really, no.
[18:46] Akiro: "Shall we invite Tirlerion?"
[18:46] Little_Brown_Box: It seems kinda bland.
[18:46] Kazuma: hmm
[18:46] Rimblade: "Er."
[18:46] * Lkeas takes in the surroundings with some measure of both interest and trepidation.
[18:46] Akiro: "Or is he already here?"
[18:46] Kazuma: I've done some reading..."
[18:46] Tirlerion: I was invited by your agreement
[18:46] Knightstar2001: Dead,The land seems to scream in pain.
[18:46] Rimblade: "Well, to each it's own.  Here's an oddity."
[18:46] Kazuma: Lkeas, perhaps you know this place?
[18:47] Eitak_Razal: Can someone fill me in? I've been takeing a personal Haitus...
[18:47] * Akiro Nods as he heard Tirlerion's comment. "Ah."
[18:47] Eitak_Razal: And I think I know this place too...
[18:47] Rimblade: "The world is dead, but there exists a large analogous city here!"
[18:47] Lkeas: I thought there would have been ice...
[18:47] >Ambiance<: The landmass that it is on is also MUCH larger then that of Tjeli
[18:47] Elenor: Strange..
[18:47] Rimblade: "One would imagine that, were the inhabitants slaughtered, more violent signs of the genocide would have been apparent."
[18:47] Eitak_Razal: But...
[18:48] Kazuma: I just can't place my finger on it
[18:48] Tirlerion: "This continent is known as Inilar"
[18:48] * The elder Damsel looks about and sighs. "Somehow, I am not surprised that this was our destination."
[18:48] Tirlerion: At least I beleive so
[18:48] *** Cy has joined #epic.
[18:48] * Lkeas frowns.  "But The'Galin cast Tjeli elsewhere... could it be.. in this timeline he did not?"
[18:48] Knightstar2001: Shall we check the out the city or secure the area?
[18:48] Tirlerion: Though is size is somewhat larger and its location in the ocean vastly different then said continent on Lore
[18:48] * Eitak_Razal blinks. "What are you doing here Tirlerion"
[18:48] Lkeas: Eitak, he was invited per the agreement.
[18:48] Lkeas: Do pay attention..
[18:49] Elenor: Hurm...
[18:49] * Elder Damsel looks at Lkeas and nods. "My thoughts exactly."
[18:49] Eitak_Razal: I wasn't in the abode. I was at home till I got pulled here...
[18:49] Tirlerion: Thats peculiar
[18:49] Little_Brown_Box: Well, Rim, this is kinda desolate...
[18:49] * Akiro Ponders for a moment. "So what are we doing now?"
[18:49] Tirlerion: Why would the spell have been designed to pull in outsiders
[18:49] Lkeas: Oh, my apologies.. I'd gotten so used to seeing you around the abode.
[18:49] Little_Brown_Box: Would it be in poor taste to spruce it up?
[18:49] * The younger Damsel turns to look at Tirlerion. "Would you be able to tell us how far off our own branch of reality this world stems from?
[18:49] Tirlerion: That almost defines its origin right there
[18:50] Elenor: ... So, can we get to the point already?
[18:50] * Lkeas turns to Tirlerion. "Perhaps it is meant to teach a lesson far reaching beyond those of Lore?"
[18:50] Tirlerion: It is not even on the same limb as your lore
[18:50] Rimblade: "Perhaps such attempts at good housekeeping ought to wait until the conclusion of our supernatural investigations, oh box."
[18:50] * TaloToecan adjusts to the transit with a mild yawn as he quite happily holds the younger Shayril's hand in his. The fact that he is taking longer to adjust than normally suddenly clicks too...a dead world has no mental sound to filter, really, and so his normally subconcious adjustments had to reach a conscious notice.
[18:50] * LordBarrius casts a glance at the elder Damsel and nods faintly in agreement, then returns his gaze to the surrounding terrain.
[18:50] Tirlerion: its difference occurs some millenia before now
[18:50] Fiona: "Can you tell us what happened...?"
[18:50] Kazuma: I see
[18:50] Lkeas: I think I see...
[18:50] Genoclysm: Would this happen to be a world without The`Galin?
[18:51] Lkeas: Exactly my musings, Geno..
[18:51] Little_Brown_Box: Watch this wind up being OUR fault, somehow!
[18:51] Rimblade: "There seems to be little need for an Uncreator here now, Geno."
[18:51] Lkeas: A world where the uncreator did NOT intervene..
[18:51] Tirlerion: It is a world without the Lorian pantheon entirely
[18:51] Little_Brown_Box: Just watch it!
[18:51] ElderDamsel: "Again, not surprising."
[18:51] Rimblade: "They are all dead."
[18:51] Elenor: Humm...
[18:51] Tirlerion: So hence that is a safe assumption
[18:51] Genoclysm: I meant never had.
[18:51] Durroth: scary
[18:51] Little_Brown_Box: Ooh.
[18:51] Little_Brown_Box: No Lorithia?
[18:51] Lkeas: Wait... was Lorithia not involved in its creation, then?
[18:51] Little_Brown_Box: No wonder it's dead...
[18:51] Lkeas: How did it come to be?
[18:51] Little_Brown_Box: No, wait.
[18:51] Tirlerion: She was
[18:51] Little_Brown_Box: There are cities.
[18:51] Knightstar2001: Who created it then?
[18:51] * TaloToecan blinks and looks at Lkeas. "Ah...now that IS quite the interesting theorem."
[18:51] Tirlerion: Its origination is after that
[18:51] Little_Brown_Box: So she was here at SOME point...
[18:51] Akiro: "Would this be Dream World?"
[18:51] Elenor: So what went wrong?
[18:51] Kazuma: Wow
[18:52] Fiona: "Did... She do this then?"
[18:52] Kazuma: the imperfection remained
[18:52] Kazuma: And the whole world fell apart
[18:52] * Eitak_Razal shudders. "The time in the area feels normal but everything else..."
[18:52] Tirlerion: There are some mechanical oddities here
[18:52] Lkeas: It makes sense, doesn't it, Talo?  If the corruption were allowed to spiral out of control... how long before everything were destroyed..
[18:52] Tirlerion: The laws of physics are distorted
[18:52] Elenor: What about magic?
[18:52] Akiro: Tirlerion...is this a Dream World?
[18:52] * Artemis_The_Fowl suddenly walks up behind the group and says "Where am I? I was sitting at home and then...."
[18:52] * Tirlerion jumps and continues going upward
[18:52] Genoclysm: Physics, distorted?
[18:52] YoungerDamsel: "You believe it would have even reached the diefic level, Lkeas?"
[18:52] Tirlerion: Gravity is um... lacking
[18:52] Elenor: Ookay...
[18:52] Rimblade: "Oh HO!"
[18:53] Eitak_Razal: Like how we can walk on the ceiling in limbo lacking?
[18:53] * The elder Damsel looks up at Tirlerion. "Huh..."
[18:53] Kazuma: ooh. That's the kind of stuff I'm used to...kinda.
[18:53] * Lkeas shrugs.  "If the vying for power had become so far-reaching..."
[18:53] * Lkeas doesn't finish her sentence as she watches Tirlerion float upwards.
[18:53] Artemis_The_Fowl: So..w'ere in a distorted, ruined versuion of lore, thgat seemingly has no gravity. Whopee.
[18:53] * Tirlerion flips over as he bumps a cloud
[18:53] Tirlerion: How interesting
[18:53] Lkeas: I don't suppose you'd be able to, er.. temporarily rectify that for us, Tirlerion?  So we don't fly off into space that is..
[18:53] Kazuma: so I guess no running, eh?
[18:53] Tirlerion: it reasserts itself here
[18:54] Tirlerion: in the opposite direction
[18:54] Durroth: ...
[18:54] Akiro: I suspect that so long as we believe that gravity is here, gravity will be here.
[18:54] Kazuma: Careful, Tirlerion
[18:54] Rimblade: "Quickly, Counterfeit!  Run a gauntlet scan, parallel to a thaumological register and a density scale scan!"
[18:54] * Tirlerion walks along the cloud
[18:54] * Eitak_Razal "Meaning don't fall or you go up?"
[18:54] Elenor: What about magic? Does magic work normally here.
[18:54] Akiro: Would that suspicion be correct, Tirlerion?
[18:54] Knightstar2001: *looks around and See the figure of Tirlerion in the Air*
[18:54] * TaloToecan glances up at Tirlerion, watching the flight path. "Perhaps a bubble effect?"
[18:54] Tirlerion: No
[18:54] Little_Brown_Box: Get your own thaumathingie!
[18:54] Tirlerion: This is not an astral
[18:54] Artemis_The_Fowl: If we ascend at this rate....we'll eventually explode from the lack of pressure around us..
[18:54] Tirlerion: It appears to be a prime plane
[18:54] * Rimblade jumps as high as he can.
[18:54] Genoclysm: A cloud with gravity...
[18:54] Akiro: Then how do we counteract this?
[18:54] Little_Brown_Box: As for gauntlets, there are none nearby.
[18:54] * Lkeas chuckles as she watches Tirlerion walking on the cloud, then patterns her motions after Rimblade attempting to follow.
[18:54] Little_Brown_Box: And the density readings are astronomical.
[18:55] Akiro: If everything is the opposite...
[18:55] * Durroth jumps
[18:55] Eitak_Razal: OH!
[18:55] Artemis_The_Fowl: Does anyone know a wind spell for levitation?
[18:55] * Tirlerion jumps and falls "up" to the ground
[18:55] Artemis_The_Fowl: It could at least keep us in one place...
[18:55] Eitak_Razal: It's a mirror world!
[18:55] * Tirlerion flips over
[18:55] Little_Brown_Box: You're all so dense, it's a wonder on the Frog has its own black hole.
[18:55] Tirlerion: This earth
[18:55] Little_Brown_Box: Only, even!
[18:55] Tirlerion: it is
[18:55] Tirlerion: Spongy
[18:55] Elenor: Right, so the laws of physics take a break here. What caused this?
[18:55] Knightstar2001: so then what we consider a dead world is Alive?
[18:55] Tirlerion: Alive?
[18:55] Fiona: "I'm... Kinda scared to even walk."
[18:55] Artemis_The_Fowl: It would seem so..
[18:55] Kazuma: Spongy? as in full of holes, or as something that can absorb moisture?
[18:55] Tirlerion: It is... odd
[18:56] Eitak_Razal: I'm with you Fiona.
[18:56] * TaloToecan crouches and runs his fingers over the ground, and presses against it gently.
[18:56] Little_Brown_Box: It's like a giant party room!
[18:56] * Akiro Attempts to walk.
[18:56] Tirlerion: As in it compresses like a sponge
[18:56] Artemis_The_Fowl: Does anyone know how we even got here in the first place?
[18:56] * Eitak_Razal grabs onto the nearest object to try and prevent herself from falling "up"
[18:56] Kazuma: okay...
[18:56] Akiro: "We came here via Tirlerion's methods."
[18:56] * Rimblade suddenly scowls.
[18:56] FrogPlushie: "I heard that, Counterfeit!"
[18:56] >Ambiance<: The ground gives slightly as you walk as if walking on a water bed
[18:56] * Elenor stands there, not really intersted in playing with physics.
[18:56] * Lkeas glances over at Rimblade and Durroth.  "How go your efforts?"
[18:56] * Kazuma stomps on the ground
[18:56] *** Kamui is now known as Kamui|AFK.
[18:56] Rimblade: "And WHY?  What odd divergance could have caused THIS?"
[18:56] Durroth: ... this planet is weird
[18:56] Akiro: "We can walk it seems."
[18:56] Elenor: Aye, that's what I'm asking.
[18:56] * Elder Damsel looks about her, at the earth then the sky. "More and more curious." The younger follows Talo's example, feeling the ground beneath her feet.
[18:57] Artemis_The_Fowl: THIS being the ground, or the sudden transit between dimensions?
[18:57] Akiro: "Gives a little under each step though."
[18:57] Rimblade: "No evil force would seek to create.... sponge!  Nor make playdough of gravity!"
[18:57] * Eitak_Razal sighs
[18:57] Little_Brown_Box: Er...a God of Fun and Awesomeness invaded, sparking the craziest godswar ever?
[18:57] Rimblade: "Unless it is some breakdown more etherial... eh?"
[18:57] Kazuma: I've been to a place sorta like this.
[18:57] Knightstar2001: the absense of the Elemental lords power in the world maybe, what think you Rimblade?
[18:57] Tirlerion: The world itself is dying
[18:57] Lkeas: A god's war...
[18:57] Tirlerion: It's core is losing cohesion
[18:57] *** Durroth is now known as Ryei.
[18:57] Elenor: .. What caused all this?
[18:57] * Lkeas turns to Damsel.  "Perhaps..?"
[18:57] * Eitak_Razal gasps.
[18:57] Kazuma: Are we to fix it?
[18:57] Rimblade: "Oh ho!"
[18:57] Artemis_The_Fowl: That makes sense...
[18:57] Kazuma: is that why we're here?
[18:57] * Ferret looks at his own fingernails for a moment, and after selecting the sharpest nail, presses it to see if he can cut or dig at all into the ground. "How disconcerting, a world itself dying."
[18:58] Eitak_Razal: Without a "Core" the world can fall apart.
[18:58] * Rimblade shrugs.
[18:58] Artemis_The_Fowl: Drying? Then why is it spongy?
[18:58] Eitak_Razal: And no, not the core made out of lava
[18:58] >Ambiance<: The ground tears not like digging in dirt but as if digging in gelatin
[18:58] Akiro: It'll implode.
[18:58] Rimblade: "Worlds die all the time, oh Ferret."
[18:58] Kazuma: woah
[18:58] * Elenor looks at the ground. "Yikes..."
[18:58] * Fiona stumbles backwards a bit. "Ack..."
[18:58] Artemis_The_Fowl: Is there a way to rectify this? Or at least create some semblance of stability?
[18:58] Lkeas: Spongy does not mean it is a "sponge" per se.
[18:58] * Eitak_Razal blinks.
[18:58] Akiro: "Worlds that are dying will eventually implode. It depends on the timing."
[18:58] * Elder Damsel tilts her head at Lkeas. "Perhaps?"
[18:58] Eitak_Razal: It's like geleltin!
[18:59] * Kazuma spreads out his mass as best he can
[18:59] FrogPlushie: "Or they just cease to exist via paradox."
[18:59] Lkeas: Well, perhaps a god's war is what led to the current lack of pantheon..
[18:59] * Akiro Looks at Tirlerion. "How long before this world implodes? If even that is the correct term for its death?"
[18:59] Rimblade: "Ahrum.  Has anyone here felt any mana?"
[18:59] Ryei: hmm...
[18:59] Tirlerion: It will not implode
[18:59] Tirlerion: it will dissociate
[18:59] Little_Brown_Box: Why are you magical types all so obsessed with bread?
[18:59] Rimblade: "How about you, Elenor?  Can you reach the Etherial realm here?"
[18:59] Akiro: "Meaning?"
[18:59] Knightstar2001: *Knightstar slowly makes his way to the group,adjusting his footing as he does*
[18:59] Tirlerion: The gravity that holds the planet together is...
[18:59] Ryei: screw being dead, this world is just WEIRD
[18:59] * TaloToecan picks up a small bit of the gelatin-esque terra non-firma, rubbing a bit between his fingers and evaluating it further. "A shame, such a loss of inherent beauty. So much fluff, with little essence to it."
[18:59] Tirlerion: Going
[18:59] Artemis_The_Fowl: Hm...if we were to cast spells associated with the elements that are in entropy...perhaps we can re-establish some order?
[18:59] Elenor: Haven't tried yet...
[19:00] * Eitak_Razal closes her eyes "I wonder something" She begins to feel for any magic not orginateing from those present. She also checks the status of the Time Particles in the area.
[19:00] Rimblade: "Hmmm."
[19:00] Tirlerion: The atmosphere and the world will return to a cloud of primeveal soup
[19:00] Lkeas: How can you cast spells with no elemental lord to grant it to you?
[19:00] Eitak_Razal: I'm checking now Rim...
[19:00] ElderDamsel: "But a god's war over what precisely? This seems to have occurred far before our involvement or even Falerin's"
[19:00] Rimblade: "But if this world, a Prime world is dying...."
[19:00] >Ambiance<: The spell functions
[19:00] Eitak_Razal: The same way I do Lkeas...
[19:00] * LordBarrius frowns faintly. "So it will simply....split into particles?"
[19:00] Rimblade: "Could it be that it's attached realms, assuming they exist, are poisoned?"
[19:00] Tirlerion: This plane lacks a God
[19:00] Artemis_The_Fowl: If the ethereal; realm could be reached...then it might be possible.
[19:00] * Elenor laughs at Lkeas's comment. "Why, I've been recently learning some... New spells, ones that rely on no such lords.
[19:00] Kazuma: Can I jus tgo on a whim.
[19:00] *** Artemis_The_Fowl has signed off IRC (Distracted: AQStats Web Client).
[19:00] Tirlerion: Casting spells causes them to draw upon whatever God is present
[19:01] * Elenor grins.
[19:01] Tirlerion: That would be me
[19:01] Eitak_Razal: Not all magic comes from gods Lkeas, some comes from the caster instead.
[19:01] * Lkeas rolls her eyes.  "Nice work, fellas."
[19:01] TaloToecan: "That is a dangerous reminder, Tirlerion. More dangerous considering what might occur if greed took hold..."
[19:01] ElderDamsel: "I would be more inclined to think that the gods just... left..."
[19:01] Rimblade: "Quite generous of you, really, oh most pussiant one!"
[19:01] Little_Brown_Box: Heya, Tirlerion? What do you reckon whoever invited us here wanted us to see?
[19:01] Lkeas: Do try not to drain him too much, will you?
[19:01] Kazuma: Perhaps...Tirlerion...should be the god...I do hate admitting it...
[19:01] Tirlerion: I do not think so
[19:01] Tirlerion: Just left that is
[19:01] * Elenor snaps her fingers, generating a flame above her hand, then glancing at Tirlerion for a moment before dispelling it. "Indeed.
[19:01] Tirlerion: I think that something made them depart
[19:01] Kazuma: it was worth a shot.
[19:02] Tirlerion: The same thing that is...
[19:02] * Tirlerion frowns
[19:02] Fiona: "Err... Omega?"
[19:02] Lkeas: Do you sense something?
[19:02] * Tirlerion sinks through the earth
[19:02] Knightstar2001: what would be able to make a God leave against it's will?
[19:02] * Lkeas blinks in surprise.
[19:02] Eitak_Razal: Another god?
[19:02] Rimblade: "Any number of things."
[19:02] Eitak_Razal: Wha!
[19:02] Tirlerion: Er
[19:02] Eitak_Razal: He's falling Down!
[19:02] Ryei: ...
[19:02] Kazuma:  um...Tirlerion, perhaps you should move.
[19:02] Tirlerion: This section of earth... is liquid rock
[19:02] * Younger Damsel looks pointedly towards the city. "Perhaps we might locate some written records?"
[19:02] Knightstar2001: Grab him!
[19:02] Eitak_Razal: Thats not normal here...
[19:02] Rimblade: "The ascendacy of godhood is no claim of perfect defense."
[19:02] Tirlerion: Not molten rock
[19:02] Ryei: What on earth is WRONG with this world
[19:02] Kazuma: is it? hmmm
[19:02] Tirlerion: Liquid ar room temperature
[19:03] Eitak_Razal: We aren't on earth for started...
[19:03] Ryei: its like some idiot designed it as a playground
[19:03] Little_Brown_Box: Cool...
[19:03] FrogPlushie: "Mercury!"
[19:03] * Tirlerion swims back to the edge and pulls himself out
[19:03] Genoclysm: Liquid rock... that sounds less pleasant than quicksand.
[19:03] Lkeas: What kind of rock?  Is it some mineral that would normally be solid?
[19:03] * Eitak_Razal scoots over to prevent skinking. She wobbles sligtly but does not fall up.
[19:03] Tirlerion: Quartz
[19:03] Tirlerion: Limestone
[19:03] Tirlerion: Sillica
[19:03] Lkeas: Very odd...
[19:03] Elenor: This dying world is strange in the extreme... Though I find casting spells using Tirlerion even stranger, no offence.
[19:03] Tirlerion: An amalgam of things
[19:03] Fiona: "Wha...? Those shouldn't be..."
[19:03] * TaloToecan frowns, regarding yet again the small mass of terra non-firma in his hand. "This...to make it more cohesive again, to make it last...no, I almost think such would still reach dissolution if I did take some with me to add to what I might have in Memory."
[19:03] * Eitak_Razal blinks. Those should be solid
[19:03] Lkeas: What could liquify those?
[19:04] FrogPlushie: "I'm liking this world."
[19:04] Eitak_Razal: I don't need a god to summon spells...
[19:04] FrogPlushie: "Too bad it's gonna go."
[19:04] Rimblade: "No.  Not so much, Elenor.  Worlds have been odder than this in their death throes."
[19:04] Tirlerion: Their molecular interactions are missing
[19:04] * Little_Brown_Box harrumphs, and whispers "Oi, Rimblade. Isn't this getting a little off-track?"
[19:04] Tirlerion: Solid matter exists because of cohesion
[19:04] Elenor: Eh, I've never been to one before.
[19:04] Tirlerion: it is...
[19:04] Knightstar2001: so the firmness of the ground is a changing thing,it seems.
[19:04] * Kazuma gasps as if in shock
[19:04] Tirlerion: non existant in that section
[19:04] Rimblade: "Oh, it is, Box."
[19:05] * TaloToecan turns back around to face the younger Shayril. "You are right, dear heart, though understanding the nature of this world...is perhaps part of the lesson."
[19:05] Rimblade: "But I fear that, unlike other situations, leaving the direct presence of Tirlerion here could prove to be a mistake worthy of significant discomfiture."
[19:05] Eitak_Razal: How about we find something solid to stand on.
[19:05] Akiro: "So what's the missing component?"
[19:05] Kazuma: the gods
[19:05] >Ambiance<: A figure walks across the liquid section
