"I never ran from you, and I am not now" "I know all that you know and I know that you do not want to be found by us. To lie to me is like lying to yourself" "Are you worthy to pass?" "I do not lie to you and I do not wish to be found by you yet" "Yes" the image changes to your father "Why has my little girl not accepted who she is?" " I have embraced who I am" "Oh have you.... then why do you deny your blood?" "You blame a corperation for all of your problems but the blame is with you and not them" "I do not deny my blood, The blood of my family runs within me. I am just not as corrupt as you" "Working to provide for a family does not corrupt it is all we could do so we did it" "No the blame lies with you. You wanted to use me to further your standing with the corp. You put the corp above the family. Your blood is tainted not mine" "Your family is the corp." he nods solemnly and his image changes to you "Go and finish what you started and make me and them proud" it fizzles and you are on the meta planes "I will do my best" <[^^Silver^^]> ---oh boy ok now for Silver An image of you appears "You have won great clarity in your life, are you worthy?" <[^^Silver^^]> "Yes, I am" * [^^Silver^^] says proudly the Image changes to Natasha <[^^Silver^^]> ---great!!!

You see like I said a lot of stuff for sale anything you could ever want ---if there is something that you want it is probably there * Shimmers head to the main building you ride to a castle within a castle The gate is closed and a guard stands over it with the controlling lever "Who goes there?" * [^^Silver^^] looks around carefully "State your business" <[^^Silver^^]> "Just weary travellers my friend might I have a word?" "You can speak to me right here" <[^^Silver^^]> ---anybody else around? ---just other guards and people busseling about you see a troop column move by every now and then "Who's castle is this?" ---they are all wearing shining white armor "The King of Serentalies" <[^^Silver^^]> ---how far away is the guard about 10 meters up and 50 meters away the guards on the walls all have bows and arrows ---maddix will be right back (bathroom break) with the amount of military might about you guess that there is probably a war on ok ---like it so far? ---yeah alot ---cool ---so far I think all your runs have been cool even though this is only the 2nd I've been in ---Thanks, I try ---I still want to read that one about Camelot that you did, that one sounds really cool --he's back ---ok ---continue <[^^Silver^^]> ---Is there a night and day in this plane? ---yes <[^^Silver^^]> ---how long til night? ---a long time <[^^Silver^^]> "Excuse me my friend but we are on a mission of utmost urgency and would like an audience with your sovereign" "very well you may enter" he hits the lever orruptedGM> and the gate opens <[^^Silver^^]> ---open sezme ---any more comments like that will cause me to send an army after yo u ---note I didn't say that <[^^Silver^^]> ---chicken <[^^Silver^^]> ---Shimmers, not GM the gate remains open <[^^Silver^^]> ---:) * [^^Silver^^] goes in cautiously * Shimmers follows you are surrounded by about 12 troops and taken to the throne room the king is discussing strategy with some advisors "You wish to see me?, why?" "Your majesty forgive us, is there a battle of some sort going on?" * [^^Silver^^] closely observes the room "The enemy is preparing to attack the city" "The enemy would they be black knights?" you see what you are looking for in a case by the king <[^^Silver^^]> ---what does it look like? "They are not knights they do not live by any code, they are demons. And judging by your weapons you have met a few" he points to your daggers It is a jewel a large jewel "Yes we met a few of them aways back, but dispatched them." "Then you must be skilled warriors" <[^^Silver^^]> "If your Majesty thinks so" * [^^Silver^^] bows "Now why are you here?" "That is a rather large jewel. May I ask what it is?" "That" he looks at is "Is the crown jewel of our city" "It is very beautiful" "Yes and very powerful " "But why are you here?" <[^^Silver^^]> "Your majesty, we have been commisioned to retrieve an artifact and return it to its proper place to save mankind" "A noble act but what has this to do with me?" as he says this a young knight clad in beautful shinging white armor bursts in "Your majesty....." "Yes?" * Shimmers trails off at this interruption knight "Sir the enemy is preparing to attack!" "Ring the bell and ready the army " knight "Yes your majesty" he runs off and a few moments after that a bell is ringing and you hear much commotion outside <[^^Silver^^]> ---anybody left in the room ---The king a general type guy and 4 guards ---His elite royal guards you hear some booming outside and some loud voices screams shouts metal clashing * Shimmers goes to check the hallway turns to face the king the hallway is clear save a knight running through every now and then "Is there someplace safe to take you?" "Oh Gods they really mean it this time" "This is the safest room in the entire castle" <[^^Silver^^]> "What are they after?" "The destruction of our race, and this jewel" the battle seems to heighten to a roar outside you hear a boom then a rumble and the sounds of battle get louder <[^^Silver^^]> "Well you majesty we do not seek the destruction of your race. But I think that the jewel may be the key to stopping this war" "What do you mean? This war will go on and on" "Has the jewel ever rested elsewhere?" "Yes" <[^^Silver^^]> "Where?" "In a place far far from here" a knight rushes in covered with blood and gore "Your majesty we are being thrown back they are winning" then he runs off to join the fray "Your majesty, as difficult as this may be perhaps replacing the jewel to where it came from will be the only thing that saves your race and all mankind he sighs "Take it" <[^^Silver^^]> "Thank you, your majesty" * Shimmers takes the jewel Shimmers roll body then Willpoer power even 3d6 --- Shimmers 3d6 ( 2 1 5 ) 5d6 --- Shimmers 5d6 ( 3 1 4 9 4 ) you take it in your hand and it fills you with a radiance and power you have never felt It transforms your clothing to a flowing gown and you glow in a golden ambiance * [^^Silver^^] watches in awe ---do I still have control of myself? ---yep and feel power that is incomprehensible this jewel adds 8 dice to all of your rolls What you gonna do? * Shimmers turns to the king "Just go and hurry before they over run us" "your majesty, returning this jewel to its rightfull place will restore the balance" * Shimmers heads out of the palace * [^^Silver^^] follows cautiously ---cautiously Ok now let me describe the scene outside this will take a sec Out side of the castle you see a battle with thousands of Black Clad warriors fight Thousands of White Clad Warriors One wall of the City of Spires has collapsed the Black Warriors have made significant gains but the White Warriors are holding valiantly and fought them to a stalemate and on some fronts have gained back somr room Magicians Blast spells as arrows from outside as well as catapults rain down on inncents friends and foe alike <[^^Silver^^]> ---is there a way out for us Archer groups inside of the city are raining arrows on the enemy troops and pots of boiling oil are dumped every now and then Intel both <[^^Silver^^]> 6d6 --- [^^Silver^^] 6d6 ( 1 2 1 4 4 2 ) 13d6 --- Shimmers 13d6 ( 5 2 1 11 5 2 5 3 9 2 4 1 2 ) Shimmers you notice that your horses are still there and an opening in the lines is forming you can make it through the battle and out the hole in the wall * Shimmers hops on the horse and rides for the hole * [^^Silver^^] follows roll um quickness both 12d6 --- Shimmers 12d6 ( 5 5 1 3 5 3 4 1 4 5 5 3 ) <[^^Silver^^]> 10d6 --- [^^Silver^^] 10d6 ( 11 10 1 4 10 2 1 14 1 4 ) Shimmers makes it through but Silver is trapped <[^^Silver^^]> ---but I rolled better :( ---I am the GM <[^^Silver^^]> ---heehee * [^^Silver^^] looks around for another way nope you are totally trapped * Shimmers looks back to see if she can help ---if you have an area attack you can Silver roll body <[^^Silver^^]> 6d6 --- [^^Silver^^] 6d6 ( 1 3 3 4 5 1 ) 4d6 --- CorruptedGM 4d6 ( 1 4 16 5 ) ---manaball a stray arrow pierces your armor and into your body S wound roll it ---will it get Silver? ---maybe ---only one way to find out ---force 6 6d6 --- Shimmers 6d6 ( 5 4 9 2 8 7 ) ---extra dice <[^^Silver^^]> ---yipe ---It becomes force 14 14d6 --- Shimmers 14d6 ( 3 1 4 4 10 5 2 5 2 5 3 5 5 17 ) ok Silver Even or Odd? <[^^Silver^^]> ---odd? 1d6 --- CorruptedGM 1d6 ( 1 ) * [^^Silver^^] prays * [^^Silver^^] prays ---roll body <[^^Silver^^]> 6d6 --- [^^Silver^^] 6d6 ( 4 2 2 5 1 11 ) the mana ball descimates all in front of you The horse Sensing its iminant danger <[^^Silver^^]> ---pleeeease throws up a shield and blocks most of the blast M wound <[^^Silver^^]> ---so that makes me? you are feeling your world go black but you have time for 2 more actions ---thats makes you almost dead ---you are on the fringe * [^^Silver^^] rides for Shimmers in hopes to have her heal me * Shimmers gets heal ready for Silver you both bust out and get out of there where the horses go into that blinding speed ---casts Heal on Silver Force 13 ok roll 13d6 --- Shimmers 13d6 ( 2 4 2 5 1 1 5 2 3 4 3 3 7 ) ---kp go for it ---3mp --- Shimmers 16d6 ( 2 5 1 5 2 1 1 4 3 2 4 3 3 4 1 5 ) Drain you heal him but the arrow is still in him ---how do I roll for it? ---sorc plus 8 14d6 --- Shimmers 14d6 ( 4 8 4 5 3 11 9 3 5 5 1 1 10 3 ) no drain you keep riding til you see what has to be the alter * Shimmers gets off the horse and walks to the alter it is kinda like the Parthanon * [^^Silver^^] slides off the horse to stand guard only still aloft and the alter in the middle is an oracle * Shimmers says a prayer and places it on the altar ---wait ---k ---an oracle boys and girls is a woman who can answer questions "Are you sure you want to give that power up?" * [^^Silver^^] longs to be gone from this place "It makes you one of the most powerful magicians on any plane" "You could take it" "And keep it for yourself" "Think of what you could do" "This of the power you would have" ---think "No, this is where it belongs" "You could destroy all that would stand against you, even Fuchi" "The ones who wanted to take you into slavery" "Think of how better the world would be" "Knowing that no more children would be taken like you almost were" "But at what cost?
