XLV2
From Caelwiki
[13:24] >Ambiance<: A cold wind falls across the abode and there is a sense of odd anticipation
[13:24] Dusk: "What's going on?"
[13:24] Computer: Error Transit Filter and Limits failed
[13:24] Computer: Transit Filter Limits Failed
[13:24] * Lkeas pads downstairs with a blanket tucked around her. "Ey, who turned down the thermostat?"
[13:25] Comuter: Compensating by transiting the entire populace with a -3 hour temporal shift
[13:25] Lkeas: Huh? Computer, what's going on?
[13:26] >Ambiance<: Fairharbor vanishes and a thick layer of ice forms immediately on the windows
[13:28] * Lkeas wanders over to the windows. "Well, that's odd... someone want to fill me in on what I missed?"
[13:28] >Ambiance<: The abode shudders breifly and then the furnace begins to kick in and warm the rapidly chilling air
[13:28] >Ambiance<: Outside the abode is a vast expanse of frozen wasteland far different from its prior locales
[13:28] Dusk: "Huh? Have we warped or something?"
[13:28] Dale: (( are those who went there prior to this still there? ))
[13:28] Dusk: "Should I just be quiet?"
[13:28]
>Ambiance<: Those initially transited find the house inexplicably
manifest arround them and their terrible thermal shock is quickly
moderated by the increasing air temperature within the abode
[13:29] * Dale suddenly appears, shivering uncontrollably.
[13:29] Elaith: -3 hour time shift, so I guess we changed timezones?
[13:30] * Elaith looks curiously out the windows, wanting to know where they are.
[13:30]
adjusts to the temperature. "Hey... what's going on, do you know?"
[13:30] Dusk: "We just suddenly...ended up in this frozen wastland."((Saying, whilst looking out the window.))
[13:30] *** Legault has joined #darkabode.
[13:31] Dyn: "Fascenating."
[13:31] * Dale shivers. "We.. we should be in Tjeli."
[13:31] Computer: Compensation Shift is Successful
[13:31] Computer: I have managed to manifest in Tjeli
[13:31] Dusk: "No more sitting on the pier for me then."
[13:31] Lkeas: Tjeli?! That's, er... not Caelestia at all...?
[13:31] Lkeas: Why are we in Tjeli?
[13:31] Computer: I was requested to transit myself and several seekers to the ice wastes
[13:32] Dusk: "By who?"
[13:32] Computer: The transit filtration failed and I was unable to transit myself
[13:32] Dale: Talo.
[13:32]
Computer: I engaged correction protocols or else they would have been
trapped in Tjeli. This required transit of the abode entire
[13:33] Dusk: "But, are we trapped now too?"
[13:33] Computer: We now are in the Ice Wastes of Tjeli
[13:33] Lkeas: Ok... hmm. Dale, did Talo-Toecan have a reason for coming here?
[13:33] Rimblade: "The Final Page!"
[13:33] Dusk: ((If the pc couldnt transmit itself, how is it speaking to us?))
[13:34] Computer: That was likely the message
[13:34] Computer: It came via Arden
[13:34] Dale: Yes.. He did.
[13:35] * Lkeas frowns. "It appears I'll have some catching up to do with the archives."
[13:35]
Arden: ((You are not following. The computer could not get through.. so
to let itself through it transited the whole abode and all its contents
to Tjeli itself included))
[13:35] Dusk: ((oh, sorry >.>))
[13:35] Lkeas: Should I wait to learn the whole story or request a synopsis at present?
[13:35]
Dale: We're here to retrieve the final page of The'Galin's journal, if
I'm not mistaken. He also said that one would be required to do manage
the journal, If I recall right.
[13:36] Dale: (( Approved Authors only :P ))
[13:36] Lkeas: ((er... someone not-Fal is going to write The'Galin's journal...?))
[13:37] *** Deathbringer has joined #darkabode.
[13:37]
Arden: ((It has to be as a non approved author cannot write in Creative
Writing no less add the last entry and an Editors Note/Commentary))
[13:37] Arden: ((Thats affirmative))
[13:37] * Deathbringer appears in his spot, sitting.
[13:37] Arden: ((Which is to say the journal entry itself is already extant and needs to be discovered))
[13:38] Arden: ((But editing it together and writing any editors notes or comments is the job of the seekers))
[13:39] * Lkeas looks at Dale, a bit taken aback. "But... but the LoreMaster had been collecting it. What's happened?"
[13:40] Elaith: I suppose that the battle for Lore has taken a more demanding turn and he does already have Caelestia to handle.
[13:40] Lkeas: Mmm. I suppose...
[13:41] Dusk: "Do we have any idea where it is?"
[13:42] Elaith: Since it's been preserved, perhaps anyone who lives in the surrounding areas might have obtained it?
[13:42] Dusk: "It doesn't look like there's a library, or in fact...inhabitants."
[13:42]
Dale: "[12:46:17] <Arden> My ward and my studies require all of
my time herein lies the cost and burden of the journey to seek"
[13:42]
Dale: [12:47:01] <Arden> The journal was not complete. I have
tracked incontrovertible evidence of an additional entry but I cannot
go and retrieve it...
[13:42] Dale: [12:47:08] <Arden> If you want to read its words
[13:42] Dale: [12:47:13] <Arden> Then that task falls to you lot
[13:42] Dale: [12:47:25] <Arden> Know only this
[13:42] Dale: [12:47:31] <Arden> The entry was written after his death
[13:43] * Lkeas frowns. "I see..."
[13:43] Dusk: "Hmmm,"
[13:44]
Lkeas: And because the citizens of Deren turned him over to the council
of Inilar, whose capital was Tjeli at the time... that's why we've come
here?
[13:44] Dale: So yes. We are in the frozen land of ice that is Tjeli.
[13:44] Dale: One would presume such, Lkeas.
[13:44] Legault: ((Erm... So what happens if we walk into the abode? Do we get pulled there?))
[13:45] Lkeas: I mean, did someone choose to come here, or is that just where you guys wound up?
[13:45] Dale: Talo knew full well where he was sending the five of us.
[13:46] Dale: Him, myself, Rimblade, Dyn, Fulcan, and Eitak_Razal all went.
[13:46] Lkeas: Using the computer?
[13:46] * Eitak_Razal steps inside. "I'm right here"
[13:46] Dale: Yes. It was supposed to come with us, but obviously it couldn't.
[13:46] Deathbringer: What now?
[13:46] * Lkeas scratches her head. "So what about that three hour temporal shift? What was that for?"
[13:47] Dusk: "Wont we uh...freeze if we go outside?"
[13:47] * Eitak_Razal pulls off a fur coat. She must have warped home at some point to get it.
[13:47] * Dale shrugs. "I wouldn't know... You just kinda.. appeared around me," he gestures to the others. "and them as well."
[13:47] * Lyoko appears in a chair.
[13:48] Dusk: "Hey Eitak."
[13:48] * Elaith listens and catches himself up by listening to Dale explain more.
[13:48] Eitak_Razal: Hi...
[13:49] Dale: I was.. erm, unconscious for most of the beggining.. you'd have to wait for TaloToecan to explain it better...
[13:50]
Lkeas: Ok well... no sense rushing off into the ice... I'd rather like
a cup of cocoa and a hot meal before trudging out there...
[13:50] * Lkeas wanders into the kitchen.
[13:51] Deathbringer: So... where in a whole new plavce, again?
[13:51] Deathbringer: ((*place))
[13:52] Eitak_Razal: All i can tell you about our surroundings is that it's cold out there...
[13:52] Deathbringer: Meh... its always cold.
[13:53] Eitak_Razal: And we just arrived when you guys showed up... Was there there a temporal shift for you guys or something?
[13:55] Deathbringer: I just got here.
[13:55] * Eitak_Razal frowns.
[13:57] *** Mode change "+v Deathbringer" for channel #darkabode by Abode.
[13:57] Dusk: "So, we know why we're here, but we can't acomplish that goal just yet."
[13:57] Deathbringer: Why are we here?
[13:58] Dusk: "To find the last page of The'Galin's journal, apparently."
[13:58]
Eitak_Razal: to get a peice of the Journal of The'Galin... That was
written after his death... at least thats why the orginal 6 of us are
here
[13:58] Dusk: "A page that was written after his death...hmmmm,"
[13:58] Deathbringer: Hmm...
[13:58] Eitak_Razal: I'm not sure how you got here...
[13:58] *** Mode change "+v Lyoko" for channel #darkabode by Abode.
[13:59] * Deathbringer shrugs.
[13:59] Dusk: "I was in the abode in the first place, i got sent along with it."
[13:59] Deathbringer: I just came to the abode, like normal.
[13:59] * Eitak_Razal places her hand on the wall. "There was a Temporal shift all right..."
[14:00] Eitak_Razal: You guys were sent back three hours in time so you arrived moments after us...
[14:00] Deathbringer: So... we were all subjects of a Plane Shift, Mass spell?
[14:01] * Lyoko decides to take nap, being lost anyway.
[14:01] *** Lyoko is now known as Lyoko|Maplestory.
[14:01] Computer: That is an incorrect understanding of actual mechanics but a correct understanding of effect
[14:01] Lyoko|Maplestory: ( *a nap )
[14:01]
displaced in location as well as in time. I'm not a real chronomancer,
I ca't tell you more.."
[14:02] Deathbringer: SO... I got the spell wrong?
[14:03] *** Xforce has joined #darkabode.
[14:03]
through the main entrance with a whirlwind of fire swirling around
himself
[14:04] Computer: The spell in question is not of that cosmology
[14:04] Deathbringer: Ah...
[14:04] Dusk: ((PC?))
[14:04] Arden: ((This is much more difficult without my RP script))
[14:04] * TaloToecan dismisses the Pyrokinetic effect after closing the door entirely.
[14:05] Arden: ((The actual epic part of this incidentally is likely a few hours off at least))
[14:05] * Deathbringer chuckles, "Meh... thats why I leave the spell casting to Albel."
[14:05] * Xforce produces a fire extinguisher and immediately starts foaming the mechaferret
[14:06] Deathbringer: So... what exactly was effected then?
[14:06] Xforce: "Help! Talo-Toecan is on fire!"
[14:06]
Arden: ((As I am still at work and have an errand for this evening...
but peices and beginings should be accomplishable in the intervening
period))
[14:06] * TaloToecan is now suds and foamed, and not
particularly put into a better mood as he splutters. "That...is...quite
enough."
[14:07] * Xforce shuts off the fire extinguisher.
[14:07] Xforce: "Are you alright?"
[14:07] Xforce: "What caused the fire?"
[14:08]
"Computer, at what point was the transit forced to alter?"
[14:08] Computer: We have arrived within 5 miles of the given latitude longitude and depth
[14:08] Dusk: ((Ugh, pyrokinetics, a spell >.>))
[14:09] Dale: Hmm.
[14:09] Dale: We're still rather far away....
[14:09]
RoD|CleaningHouse: ((Pyrokinetics is not a spell in this instance.
Pyrokinetics == Fire-based Telekinetics in this case))
[14:09] *** Legault has joined #darkabode.
[14:09] *** Mode change "+v Legault" for channel #darkabode by Abode.
[14:09] Computer: The primary variance is in the depth coordinate
[14:10] Computer: Z-Axis variation is currently at 3.2 miles
[14:12] Computer: Ice Thickness is estimated at 2.3 miles
[14:12] * TaloToecan sighs. "Computer, is it possible to sound out possible cave systems and routes?"
[14:13] Computer: Not in my present location
[14:13] Computer: Exterior to the Abode I can set up omnidirectional ultrasound
[14:14]
TaloToecan: "Would it be possible to link with the Abode and create the
effect off of the Abode's larger surface area? Provided the Abode
itself agrees..."
[14:14] Computer: Caution however is
merited as such will cause distress to those who can hear in that
frequency range and may set the teeth of those who can hear within 2100
hertz of that frequency on edge
[14:15] Computer: The fully sentient
portion of the dwelling is directly related to the Fair Harbour
manifestation and is not present
[14:15] Computer: I can access the abodes systems from here
[14:15] Legault: ((e-mail!))
[14:15] * TaloToecan ponders for a while. "And you have no biological datum for the area's potential inhabitants?"
[14:16] Computer: The abodes resolution for such things is much less precise and accurate then my own
[14:17] >Ambiance<: A loud screech is heard by those capable of detecting ultrasound and the ground shakes
[14:17] *** Lyoko|Maplestory has signed off IRC (Suppressed: Marching band. :-:).
[14:17] Deathbringer: What the hells? An earthquake?
[14:17] Dusk: "What's causing that shaking? The altrasound?"
[14:17] Dusk: *ultra
[14:18] * Xforce shakes his head, wincing.
[14:18]
Computer: Resolution Failure. I am unable to scan past the ice mantle.
Warning the Icemantle is not contiguous. Assault on this broad of a
frequency may cause continued structural collapses within the ice sheet
[14:18] Xforce: "Ow. Was that a bat of some sort?"
[14:19] Xforce: "Too large to be a bat, I suppose..."
[14:19] Eitak_Razal: I didn't hear anything
[14:19] Xforce: "Some sort of tunneling creature?"
[14:19] * Xforce puts his ear to the ground and listens intently
[14:19]
laptop. "Yes...laptop, alter your systems processes such that the next
time you warn of a merit of caution, you halt process until a final
confirmation is given unless an override is issued."
[14:19] Xforce: "..."
[14:19] Xforce: "Oh my"
[14:20] Xforce: "Are the ice floes supposed to break up this early in the year?"
[14:20] Deathbringer: Is it saying that the ice may fracture here in the near future?
[14:20] * Grett appears in the Abode. "Hm... seems something is different."
[14:20] TaloToecan: "Particularly if a query on the nature of the potential issue is requested."
[14:20] Eitak_Razal: If we keep doing that, yes.
[14:20] * Legault walks into the abode, which I assume is empty.
[14:20] Xforce: "Excuse me?"
[14:20] Xforce: "The ice is cracking."
[14:20] Xforce: "Right now."
[14:21] Xforce: "We need to get out."
[14:21] Computer: Affirmative
[14:21] Xforce: "Or get into the air."
[14:21] Selarep: Hey, Legault.
[14:21] Computer: Additional Cracking will occur if I continue auditory scans
[14:21] Computer: Proceed?
[14:21] Xforce: "..."
[14:21] TaloToecan: "Cease scans."
[14:21] Dusk: "Say no!"
[14:21] Computer: Scans ceased
[14:22] * Deathbringer lets out a sigh of relief.
[14:22] >Ambiance<: There is a sudden subsidence and the abode sinks a good 10 feet
[14:22]
TaloToecan: "Direct download any viable data gained via telepathic
link, as well as any datum on the disturbed biologicals."
[14:23] * Dusk does something he rarely does, and blinks
[14:23] * Daniel continues to idly twirl his wand and watch.
[14:23] * Eitak_Razal notes that they can no longer use the door.
[14:23] Eitak_Razal: Well that blocked off the door
[14:23] Computer: There are no known biological agents within the continent
[14:23] * Xforce exhales, then grabs a chair, rendered momentarily off-balance by the sudden drop in elevation.
[14:23] Deathbringer: Whoa.
[14:23] Xforce: "Does this happen often?"
[14:23] Deathbringer: So... where the only ones here?
[14:24] Deathbringer: ((*we're))
[14:24] * Eitak_Razal sighs
[14:24] Eitak_Razal: Yea
[14:24] * Selarep appears.
[14:24] Computer: Engaging Bioscan
[14:24] Xforce: ((... are two groups of people in here? In two different locations?))
[14:24] Grett: What are you people trying to do now? Tell me we are at least in the present...
[14:24] Dusk: ((PC?))
[14:24] * TaloToecan bounces on the balls of his feet during the decent, and waits on the scan.
[14:24] Xforce: (( I'm somewhat confused >.< ))
[14:25] Computer: This will take an estimated 2.45 hours
[14:25] TaloToecan: "Technically, Grett, we are shifted by three hours in the past."
[14:25] Xforce: ((.. nevermind. Makes sense now. ))
[14:25] Selarep: The laptop is back again?
[14:25] Computer: That is not correct
[14:25]
frustrated state. "Fine. Computer, address Grett's query in full."
[14:25] Computer: Those initially transited exist in the current timezone
[14:26] Computer: Those who have arrived thereafter exist in a 3 hour negative shift
[14:26] Computer: Shall I engage stasis to normalize time while I scan
[14:26] Selarep: Err...so I'm the latter?
[14:27] Grett: What would be the significance of whether stasis was on or not during the scan?
[14:27]
initial transition? Should we be outside of the Abode in stasis until
time is normalized?"
[14:27] >Ambiance<: The computer does not seemingly respond to these queries
[14:27] * Xforce examines his hand, somewhat curious as to what to expect.
[14:27] Computer: Negative
[14:27] *** Dusk has signed off IRC (Distracted: ).
[14:27] Computer: Variable quantum flow is possible
[14:28] Computer: Using chronological manipulation
[14:28]
response to general inqueries made by anyone present within the Abode
proper and with a valid login ID."
[14:28] Computer: The
alternative possibility is that I move the abode to the future while
keeping you fixed in stasis in the past
[14:29] Computer: This would appear like blinking and then normalization with no detectable after effect
[14:29] Computer: Paradox likely hood for the second effect is nil. For the primary negligible
[14:29] TaloToecan: "Negligible? Elaborate."
[14:30] Computer: Paradox likelihood for continued disparate time lines is substantial and growing
[14:30]
"It would appear that we should choose now while the choosing is good.
Your votes?"
[14:30] Computer: The primary effect requires variable rates of actual time but the same rate of perceptual time
[14:31]
Computer: This requires a direct desyncronization with the normal time
flow and has a small risk of slight increased aging
[14:31] Computer: And an equally small risk of decelerated or reversed aging
[14:31] * Xforce shrugs. "I trust no one here will begrudge anyone else three extra hours of life from their perspective?"
[14:32] * Eitak_Razal chuckles... "I'm immune to most side-effects of time magic."
[14:32] Selarep: It's pretty much nothing to me.
[14:32]
Computer: The secondary effect requires the primary group to lose 3
hours of percieved time during which they age normally but percieve
nothing
[14:32] Xforce: "It seems a small enough price to pay, if anything."
[14:32] Grett: The aging bit doesn't scare me, but I'm not wure about the others.
[14:32] Computer: No timeline deviation is needed
[14:32] Grett: ((sure*))
[14:32] Xforce: "Is it possible for us to perceive the flow of time in sleep-stasis?"
[14:33] Xforce: "Negating my need to sleep for today would be a nice bonus, if not altogether necessary."
[14:33] * Deathbringer chuckles.
[14:33] Eitak_Razal: I don't mind. I'm a time being remember.
[14:33] Grett: Really I don't care either way it goes.
[14:33]
Computer: No timeline deviation occurs in the secondary groups during
sleep stasis. The secondary group is simply transited to the future
where they belong while the primary group exists in a state of
dreamlike unawaress during that period and goes through it literally
[14:34] Legault: Alright, fine with me.
[14:34]
'Initials'. "Computer, engage the second option please. Best to avoid
paradox."
[14:34] * Elaith smiles, pleased with that idea.
[14:34] Computer: Engaging Second Option
[14:35] * Eitak_Razal said she was fine with it.
[14:35]
>Ambiance<: From the perspective of all the sun goes down
coniderably and the storm begins raging outside quite fervently
[14:35] Dale: Hmm.
[14:35] * Dale nods. "I'm with the one that promotes the least amount of paradox."
[14:35]
>Ambiance<: There is a sense of time normalization for the second
group. In contrast the first group feel a breif lapse in memory and
then as if it was just stated things normalize
[14:36] *** Avarie has joined #darkabode.
[14:36] *** Mode change "+ao Avarie Avarie" for channel #darkabode by Abode.
[14:36] Computer: Time has Normalized
[14:36] * Eitak_Razal feels slightly dizy from the overlode of time-magics in one area.
[14:36] Legault: Good...
[14:37] Deathbringer: Thats good.
[14:37]
TaloToecan: "Computer, display a holographic clock for the projected
end of the current storm's interefences. I'd prefer to maintain a link
when I do attempt to traverse 5 miles over, through, and under the Ice
to the target point."
[14:38] Computer: the current storm is not expected to end within the next millenia
[14:38] Computer: the current storm will abate somewhat in 3 hours
[14:38] Computer: I will continue bioscan in the intervening period
[14:38] Selarep: ...
[14:39] Deathbringer: Thats one long storm...
[14:39] Arden: ((Be back in a few))
[14:39] * Xforce blinks, then inspects his hand again.
[14:39] Xforce: "As expected..."
[14:39] Xforce: "I don't remember the change I was supposed to look for."
[14:39] *** Elaith has joined #darkabode.
[14:39] * Xforce shrugs. "Talo-Toecan, what needs to be done here?"
[14:40] TaloToecan: "Retrieval of the apparently post-humously written final entry of The`Galin's journal."
