[21:15] [Tala PING reply]: 1sec [21:15] * Cicada (cabin) drops her voice to a whisper. "I also have a good general fix on the location of the firedust." [21:16] * Jynaru shrugs. "Yeah, it's cool. No worries." [21:16] (cabin) "There are two charges, one in the stern, one to the aft, just over the ballast." [21:16] (Cabin, whisper then louder) "Good." "Come now let us be off then" [21:17] (deck) Jynaru, you feel a strong hand grab you by the shoulder and pull you to your feet, and then the other ginerly touches your bruise [21:17] (cabin) "yes, my lord. Lead and your servant will follow, to the gates of Malfeas even." [21:18] * Tabius casts Mirror of Bending Light on himself and his loyal servant Sable then the two of them make off for below decks [21:18] (cabin) "One more thing.." [21:18] "Good after noon."

[21:19] "So shall it be done" [21:19] [you all realize you have guards following you right [21:20] * Maris has been talking very quietly about the lifeboats to the others.

Apparently they are used to your acrobatics [21:24] * Jynaru turns to look at his benefactor. "Thanks, and all, but this isn't anything. It'll be gone in a couple of hours." [21:25] [Maris] you go below deck with your guide, with whom you have promised to arrange a dinner with Cicada. You go downstairs, again in the guise of the cloak, as you twist through the maze of passageways underneath the ship [21:26] [Jynaru] Whoever it is nods to you, bends over to pick up the metal rod, and then walks away slowly, watching you over her shoulder [21:26] * Tabius Bends over and grabs his blanket. Then sets fire to the bed and walls with his anima finaly setting fire [21:26] to the blanket which he throws out the door as they leave to provide a nice tidy distraction.

[21:27] * Tala watches the crew as she has done before, but now she does so with a more suspicious mind [21:28] "The hell, tabius!" comes the curses as you rush out the door with ciacada hanging on, as the blanket sputters sparks and smoke starts filling the hallway. "Get some sand!" comes the shout [21:29] * Jynaru wanders over to take a nap in a lifeboat. [21:30] As you run down the hallway, your anima sputters in kicks and starts despite your invisibility spell, and you hear one of them yelling "Where's Tabius and Cicada?" as you round the corner [21:31] * Tabius is less concerned with them knowing that we are gone than knowing where we are. [21:31] Tabius looking around you can see that your anima is still active, and is showing through the spell [21:31] you are leaving charred footsteps in your wake [21:32] "My lord, you make a diversion. I take out the firepowder." [21:33] Tabius' anima will subside with time.... [21:33] it is nearly completely covered now by the spell, if you will wait a few minutes it will have died down completely [21:35] Later peoples.

[21:37] [Hopefully we waited before my lords footsteps completely gave away our objective. :)] [21:38] You lead as tabius follows to where the firepowder is stored.... however it will take an absurdly long time for his anima to die down completely so there is still a disfiguration in the deck... only slightly, however, as long as you keep moving. [21:39] Tala, as you watch the crew, you find Jynaru sleeping in a lifeboat [21:40] (hold) "My lord, I have to examine the cannisters for ways to disarm or open them. Then if they can be moved, we will throw them into the ballast room, all that water should soak them real good." [21:40] * Werlynn is now known as Tala [21:40] * Werlynn [~Werlynn@ool-182ded4e.dyn.optonline.net] has left IRC [21:40] * Tala [~Werlynn@ool-182ded4e.dyn.optonline.net] is on IRC [21:41] Cicada, you and Tabius arrive near the doorway closest of the firepowder canisters, looking around you can see two guards boringly watching the hallway in front of them. [21:41] * Tala frowns and looks at Jynaru's guard [21:42] Jynaru's guard is sitting on a barrel nearby, watching sleepily [21:42] (hold) "my lord, I need to get close to those two, best while being invisible." [21:43] Tabius nods, keeping his hand lightly on your shoulder as you lead... [21:43] * Cicada unties her sash, and twist it into a silk rope.

[21:46] [w/ guards?] [21:46] the guards are standing at a comfortable distance, watching them uneasily [21:47] suddenly, everyone on deck sees people climbing up to the deck out of the forward bow of the ship, grabbing pails of sand and yelling "Fire! fire!" [21:47] * Cicada then sneaks up behind the nearest guard, readies herself and jumps. Fast as lightning she gets the sash around the first guard's neck, then jumps up trailing the sash after her. In midflight she puts it in the hook for the lantern (or whatever) then drops down next to the second guard, sling the other end of the sash around his neck and begins to strangulate him, while the other is being strangled hanging from the hook. (Attack, jump attack [21:47] the entire crew seems to mobolize at the yell, grabbing sand pails and rushing downstairs [21:47] * Tala 's eyes widen [21:48] * Jynaru sits up and rubs his eyes.

[21:59] * Cicada uses one hand to stop the guard's sword. [22:00] In other parts of the ship, Tala has rushed downstairs to combat the fire, her watery anima swirling around her as it drowns away the flames [22:00] * Tala wades slowly into the fire, water-aspected essence swirling around her, six feet across [22:01] Cicada you cannot parry lethal attacks without a weapon [22:01] [Shield bracer] [22:01] ok...

[22:41] * Maris runs up from the deck into the hallway, "Get out of the way!!" [22:41] * Maris starts spraying water into the fire to quench it. [22:41] A large voice rumbles throughout the ship [22:41] "Five" [22:41] "FOUR" [22:41] "THE HELL ?!" [22:41] * Maris says, "Fuck!" [22:41] "THREE" [22:42] "TWO!!!" [22:42] * Maris runs for the deck and over the side [22:42] * Jynaru stops throwing sand. "Oh boy." [22:42] * Tala is to distracted by the raging inferno overwhelming her [22:42] "ONE! [22:42] * Vanal mutters a prayer [22:42] * Jynaru sits down and covers his ears. [22:42] 4KABLOOOOOOey [22:42] * Storyteller makes cool sound effects with his noise [22:42] you think you died [22:42] * Maris activates his anima as he hits the water and heads for the island. [22:43] but you come to a few moments later, prone, whever you were [22:43] "Sweet Mela...what happened to me." [22:43] * Vanal struggles to his feet [22:43] (still near-naked ?) [22:43] Maris, you jump into the water, only to see a huge explosion come out from under the water line, and the ship starts shaking [22:43] (yeap!) [22:44] * Maris will be wading nearbye to watch for the players and lifeboats. [22:44] * Jynaru cautiously removes his hands from his ears. (There still fire everywhere?) [22:44] [still surrounded by a raging inferno?] [22:44] * Vanal looks down at his (extremely cut) self...'if this is heaven...why didn't they give me my clothes back ?" [22:44] yeap, still fire everywhere [22:44] Maris... you see Tei and Irin coming nearby with a small lifeboat, but that is all. [22:45] * Maris heads over to them and climbs aboard to get a better biew and watches the ship as it sinks and hopes the others get off. [22:45] Cicada and Tabius, you are about to pour the barrel into the bildge water when the explosion knocks you off your feet, and the barrel falls of it's own accord into the water [22:45] * Cicada jumps to cover her lord. [22:46] * Tala channels more essence into her anima, brining it back to its highest form and heads for the deck, surrounded by a raging waterspout as she tries futily to scream over the combines sounds of the waterspout and the raging inferno for those still on board to get away from the flames and abandon ship [22:46] Tabius grabs you Cicada as you both fall down the stairs into the knee-high water.... [22:46] * Vanal grabs Shak and bolts for the deck [22:46] strangely... the ship seems to be intact..... [22:46] but the horrible creaking lets you know that you don't have much time.... [22:46] I"m assuming nobody is on deck? [22:47] * Jynaru chucks the entire crate into the blaze and RUNS LIKE HELL for the box full o stuff. [22:47] Maris... you see the sails on the ship go out [22:47] they're being hauled up, and the ancor on the side of the ship is being pulled in [22:48] It's not sinking? [22:48] it looks like it is [22:48] but not quickly [22:48] Mmm. [22:48] Too bad that. [22:48] it begins moving towards the island, it's sails suddenly full of wind.... [22:49] * Maris tells Tei to head for the island as well pissed this might not work out so well. [22:50] * Jynaru activates his Stealth charm since some people are stupid and might wish to stop me on my mission of much joy. [22:50] Cicada, you and Tabius are suddenly covered with a wave of water [22:51] Jynaru is carrying a huge bunch of sand! [22:51] * Maris jumps over board and attempts to beat the ship to the island. [22:51] Jynaru, you have arrived with the sand! [22:51] * Jynaru chucked that already. I am running to where the bx full o artifacts is. [22:51] Is there any lines hanging off the ship I can use to get back onto it? [22:52] * Cicada does not even try to struggle against the wave, just cuhsion her lord against anything they might bump into. [22:52] Jynaru you don't know where the box full of artifacts is, you've never been there, you don't even know that ther eIS a box full of artifacts [22:52] * Jynaru sighs. Damn. [22:52] The waves passes, and a steady, small stream of water is quickly filling up the bildge compartment [22:52] * Jynaru 'll just run about like a madman, then. [22:53] madjynaru strikes again.... [22:53] * Cicada tries to get up and look around. [22:53] Cicada, you get up only to be knocked to your feet again, as a horrible grinding sound comes from under your feet, and the entire ship shudders and cracks.... [22:53] * Jynaru 's stoned, something just exploded, and there's fire everywhere. You expect cohernce out of a Wood aspect in the middle of an inferno? [22:53] and comes to a stop [22:54] * Vanal tries to estimate the speed of the ship and tries to mentally judg eif it'll reach the island before sinking [22:54] ... [22:54] Maris you see the ship stop [22:54] or not [22:54] Everyone falls to the floor again [22:54] * Vanal rubs the SAME BUMP on his head [22:54] Maris you see people flying over the side of the ship from the force of the collision [22:54] * Maris will get between the ship and the island and bloodily dispatch the front runners to attract Siaka. [22:55] the fires continue to rage [22:55] * Tala continues trying to herd those who were trying to put out the flames to the deck when possible, but tries not to get them in her anima, as it could prove as deadly to them as the flames [22:55] * Jynaru groans. "Running in panic, not helping. Spreading sand, not helping. I hate Calibration." [22:55] Maris, they don't seem to be trying to get to shore, though there is a small party on land still getting water [22:55] * Jynaru gets up and runs for the deck to see what the hell is going on. Only incognito. [22:56] * Maris heads to land then to deal with them. [22:56] Jynaru, people are throwing ropes overboard to pull people out of the ocean... [22:56] for those outside: the boat seems to have stopped sinking... for the moment. [22:57] Maris, you arrive on shore. [22:57] you going to kill everyone? [22:57] * Cicada tries to get up again while keeping a good grip on her lord. [22:57] How many people? [22:57] half a dozen [22:57] * Vanal sits down against a wall, takes a deep breath "If we ever have a toast like that again...shoot me." [22:57] Cicada, you manage to get to your feet... [22:57] (to shak) [22:57] Vanal, the fire is still roaring around you [22:57] ... [22:58] um, nix that [22:58] shakel is looking at the fire unhappily [22:58] * Maris annouces to them aping up his intimidation factor, "PUt your weapons down and cooperate and You won't die. Don't and you will." [22:58] "LITTLE HELP HERE !" [22:58] * Jynaru curses, does the crate trick with a new big crate, and does the stoned idiot running to the rescue bit. [22:58] "CAN'T WE GET SOME SEAWATER TO TOSS ON IT ?!" [22:58] Watery figures seem to float in the edge of their cvisions as he walks to shore cloak thrown back. [22:58] Maris, they don't seem to be interested in resisting... they raise their hands in the air, stepping away from the barrels of fresh water they have alreay loaded onto the ship [22:59] Vanal, water is spraying from above but it doesn't seem to be having enough effect... [22:59] Jynaru, how many pounds of sand is that? [22:59] * Maris has them unload the water and will tie them up for dealing with them later. [22:59] Eh, few hundred pounds. [22:59] Any of them sailors or carpenters? [22:59] * Jynaru shrugs. I can carry 1,000, but I don't think they have a crate big enough for that much sand. [23:00] Maris, you don't think so, they look like troops. [23:00] * Maris disarms them and takes their drugs as he does so telling them they don't get them back unless they play nice. [23:00] Okay jynaru... you carry the sand.. the fire has burnt a hole in the deck, and you think that it is about to collapse [23:01] Maris... they had their stuff over you shakily but it is obvious that they are indeed worried... [23:01] * Jynaru yells over the roaring blaze. "Hey, people that are still in the fire, GET THE HELL OUT OF IT! This thing's gonna collapse!" [23:01] "I'm a fair man. You don't screw with me and you'll get it back. [23:01] everbody below decks hears jynaru yelling over the blaze... [23:01] * Tala wonders if she is having any success herding the crew to safety [23:02] "SHIT ! LEt's MOVE PEOPLE !" [23:02] * Jynaru uses the sand to clear a path through the blaze, looking for people who might have gone down form smoke inhalation or the like. [23:02] * Cicada tries to get her lord and herself out of the hold. [23:02] Tala, yea you are... [23:02] * Tala has been trying to do it for like 10 (real time) minutes [23:02] * Maris then goes back to watching the ship to see if any are trying to reach shore or if the Siaka have started feeding. [23:03] Tabius takes your hand, cicada, as you help him out of the water... he's standing there, soaked, and you realize that the two of you are both still invisible... [23:03] because you don't have any reflections [23:03] Maris it is very stange, but you don't see any spirit activity at all. [23:03] So much the better. No telling what the people aboard will do if they find the two of them in the hold or exiting it. [23:04] "We have to get off the boat... it is sinking!" [23:04] * Cicada and Tabius makes their way up. [23:04] Kill you dead. Or at least pummel you without mercy. [23:04] Tala manages to pull those who are in danger out of the fire, while support crews continue brining in pound after pound of sand [23:05] (to Tabius) "My lord will seek safety. This servant has some business to deal with." [23:05] Jynaru... you hear a sharp laughter behind you [23:06] * Jynaru turns to look at what the hell kind of moronic piece of shit is laughing right about now that I can kill them later. [23:06] Jynaru.... it's red bloom [23:06] * Tala was avoiding touching them [23:06] ! [23:06] his face looks rather surprised [23:06] !!!!! [23:06] * Tala could kill them if they got in her anima [23:06] "Hahahahahhahahaahaah!" [23:06] "You idiots!" [23:06] * Tala was trying to get everyone out of the area, including the fire-fighters [23:07] * Jynaru flips Bloom off. [23:07] * Vanal shouts to the firefighters "MOVE OUT GODDAMMIT !" [23:07] water is spraying, and buckets of sand are falling around you as you are pulled away from the safety, and up to deck, where you find a rather happy Red Bloom laughing at Jynaru [23:08] * Jynaru throws a bit of sand at Bloom experimentally. [23:08] Cicada and Tabius arrive on deck to see the confrontation [23:08] * Maris (~bjorndaba@adsl-63-202-88-81.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net) Quit (Connection reset by peer) [23:08] * Maris [~bjorndaba@adsl-63-202-88-81.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net] has left IRC [23:09] the sand flies through Red Bloom's image, flickering sligtly as it does so. "Oh, oh, you still think I'd bother coming here in person? Bah, you're not worth it. You'll take care of yourselves in due time!" [23:09] "Awww.. *low realm explecitives*" [23:09] * Vanal curses violently in low realm [23:09] * Jynaru curses in every single language he knows. [23:09] * Vanal grabs shak and makes his way out [23:09] * Maris [~bjorndaba@adsl-63-202-88-81.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net] is on IRC [23:09] * Maris (~bjorndaba@adsl-63-202-88-81.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net) has joined #pvpexalted [23:09] He looks at Jynaru slowly, smiling. "You start the boat on fire, and then explode the barrels of firepowder on your own? Some friends you have, Jynaru." [23:10] * Jynaru snarls at Bloom. [23:10] (to Tabius) "My lord, get yourself to safety. Now, while the others are distracted." [23:10] everywhere around you the boat swarms with action, throwing sand and pumping water everywhere as fires begin to consume the ship [23:10] Tabius looks at Cicada and nods, making his way to one of the boats.... [23:11] "And yet you're still too frightened of us to even show up!" [23:11] He laughs [23:11] * Cicada makes her way around the deck towards the captain's cabin. [23:11] * Tala sighs in frustration as the crew ignores her efforts to get them to give up and abandon the ship [23:11] * Jynaru absent-mindedly chucks sand at the fire around him as he continues bitching out Bloom. [23:11] * Vanal makes his way to the deck [23:12] "I'm not going to worry about it, Jynaru. But, I am willing to cut you all a deal." [23:12] (To anyone nearby) "What the FUCK started the fire ?!" [23:12] the ship rocks in explosion [23:12] * Jynaru barely wavers as he stares at Bloom. [23:12] "Deal? DEAL? What the hell are you talking about?" [23:13] He looks at Vanal, smiling. "One of your companions decided, completely on his own, to set off the firepowder barrels I warned you about before." [23:14] He looks at Jynaru and then smiles. "I can save the ship, or I can leave you all stranded out here. Your choice, at this point. I don't think the crew will be very kind to you, however." [23:14] How are Tei and Irin doing? [23:15] Tei and Irin are nowhere in sight [23:15] Where's teh Lifeboat? [23:15] you think it's probably on the other side of the island [23:15] hope so, at least [23:15] * Maris goes to check the other side of the island with the 6 men coming with him. [23:15] * Tala stares at the people throwing away their lives for several moments [23:15] * Jynaru looks around incredulously. "Save the fucking ship? It's been exploded and on FIRE, in case the thought hasn't gotten through your useless mis-shapen head! How the hell do you expect to do that?" [23:16] He smiles. "I'm an anathema, possessor of powers so great that you cannot even DREAM of them. I can save it..... believe me, it is no problem at all.... [23:17] "You know, I sent something to make your trip faster.... It should be arriving soon. If you want, I can call it back, and leave you all there to burn or drown. [23:17] * Tala turns away [1wp to resist compassion] and then climbs the listing deck to the edge and dives into the water, channeling essence into her body to attune herself to the water [23:17] * Jynaru smiles back. "Tell that to the other ones like you I left dead. And of course there's no catch to this offer, right? [23:17] [3 personal for anima effect] [23:18] He smiles. "One catch. Oh, one small catch. I want a name." [23:19] "A name? You want a NAME?" [23:19] * Jynaru looks at him. "What sort of name?" [23:19] "You worked with a woman once, she was posing as your wife. You remember?" [23:19] * Jynaru nods slowly. [23:20] "Tell me her true name.... and I will not deign to leave you rot on this island, where I can assure you you will find no comfort." [23:20] * Cicada makes her way up on the rear platform. [23:20] "If you even manage to survive!" [23:22] * Jynaru shrugs. "So, you're asking me to betray her for the opportunity to rot on a different island? [23:22] * Tala swims to the shore of the island and emerges from the water, her churning aqua colored anima blazing for all to see for miles [23:22] Maris, you see Tala sitting coming ashore out of the water [23:23] I see The ship yet? [23:23] The life boat even [23:23] you come across the rise and see the life boat pulling into shore on the leeside of the island [23:23] "Tei get your ass over here with the stuff!" [23:24] * Jynaru ponders as he waits for the answer. [23:24] * Maris looks to Tala, "Watch the ship check to see if their way here. [23:24] Tei looks up at Maris, looking for somewhere better to bring the stuff [23:25] * Maris has him bring the life boat around to their side. [23:25] Red Bloom just smiles at Jynaru. [23:25] a huge shadow blots out the sky [23:25] * Maris looks up to the Shadow. [23:25] * Jynaru blinks. "I'm assuming that's the help..." [23:25] * Vanal staggers onto the deck...in time to see the ISD-esque shadow [23:25] * Maris curses as he does so. [23:25] "What the helllllll....?" [23:26] * Jynaru doesn't stop sending the Stare of Death at Bloom. [23:26] a huge creature, with thousands of wings, hovers above the island and the ship, it's massive, translucent wings blotting out the sun as it's massive claws grope in the sky above you [23:26] * Maris curses yet again more vehemetly. [23:27] the wind shifts, and you find that it is blowing straight down upon you... [23:27] * Maris holds up his hands to protect from the wind. [23:27] Tei and Irin look up at the beast in horror [23:27] * Vanal wraps his arms around him....wishing that he was wearing more clothing [23:28] * Jynaru ignores the wind. "Answer me, damn you! I do not betray such valuable allies lightly!" [23:28] "All I want.. is her name. You know what she is, Jynaru. You know she isn't blooded." he smiles and walks towards you. "What did they tell you she is? Or do you know?" [23:29] strangely enough, the fires seem to be dying down. the crew's work is being successful. [23:30] * Jynaru laughs. "Everyone at my level knows. She's got the blood of the spirits in her. What, you don't think I noticed how good she was with spirits and that eye thing?" [23:30] Tabius is watching..... apparently he has not left yet [23:30] * Jynaru smiles superiorly. [23:30] Red Bloom laughs. [23:30] * Maris goes to the ship to grab Tala's Claws and heads back to her to toss them to her, "Attune those as fast as you can." [23:30] * Maris is wearing his full armor and claws. [23:31] * Vanal watches the exchange between Jyn and Red Bloom [23:31] "She could see the future, can't she? Know what you're going to say before you said it. What dragon has that kind of power to give?" [23:31] (Mutter) "You're going down you son of a bitch. I don't know how, I don't know when...but I am going to kill you." [23:31] * Jynaru blinks. [23:32] Red Bloom ignores Vanal's muttering [23:32] Storyteller : !ex 14, 8, 6, 6, 8, 1, 8, 3, 1, 7, 6, 10, 10, 7, 6, Successes : 9 [23:32] !ex 14 [23:32] "The hell are you saying? She was Anathema?" [23:32] Red Bloom is incredibly convincing [23:32] "There are three kinds of Anathema, Jynaru.. The Solar. The Lunar. " [23:33] * Tala looks at Maris [23:33] "Thank you, but I do not think I will have a whole hour before I will need them." [23:33] * Jynaru counts along on his fingers. "And the wierd death people. That's three." [23:34] "Do your best. Their may be a lot of angry soldiers coming after us. [23:34] he laughs. "And there was another one, barely mentioned in the immaculate texts. Almost no information about them. Do you know what they are called?" [23:35] * Maris looks to the 6 with him and makes sure they're properly cowed. [23:35] that they are [23:35] "Sky something? Si... With the stars, and all, right?" [23:35] "Sidereals." [23:35] * Tala sits and rests, trying to regain some of the essence she has spent [23:35] "You know what they are, good..." [23:36] * Storyteller finds it amusing that the immaculates aren't here to talk about the anathema [23:36] * Jynaru starts to nod before catching himself. "Yeah, them. So, what, I slept with a Sidereal?" [23:36] He laughs. "You see? It certainly isn't hard to understand." [23:38] Tabius is walking over here now.... [23:38] he is looking up defiantly at red bloom, chanting magical runes [23:38] * Maris hands Tala any other artifacts she had from the bags in the boat as well as her hearthstones. [23:38] * Jynaru looks amusedly at Tabius. [23:38] power streaks from tabius to Red Bloom, but merely cackles harmlessly against him [23:39] * Tala accepts her torc. Thank you [23:39] "So, what you're saying is that I'd just be giving one group of Anathema trying to ruin the Realm an advantage over the other group of Anathema trying to ruin the Realm?" [23:40] "That's exactly the point. Anathema are anathema, you understand - the immaculate texts certainly don't deign to make one more likeable than the other." [23:41] * Jynaru holds up a hand. "Except that if what you're saying is true, I've been working for Anathema and sleeping with Anathema all my life. Clearly, this cannot be." [23:41] * Maris makes sure Irin has her stuff and has the boat beached properly. He also starts inspecting the boats to see how well he can put together a sailing craft. [23:41] * Tala holds her torc and claws, using the hearthstones to regain what essence she can, while focusing to attune them [23:41] He smiles at Jynaru. [23:42] "You sure you don't want to just pop in here so I can kick your ass or something? This shit's giving me a headache." [23:43] "Oh, I could." he looks up. "But, I could just as easily have this thing pick you up into the air and then drop you from a mile up. Much less work for me." [23:43] [Tala SOUND] [23:43] * Maris then checks for any soldiers trying to make it to shore. [23:43] !ex 3 [23:43] Jynaru : !ex 3, 6, 3, 4, Successes : 0 [23:43] "Point." [23:45] * Jynaru rubs his temples. "Just tell me this. What makes the other island better than that one?" [23:47] "There, is enough for you to live in peace." he smiles, waving his arms as an image of a tropical island appears above him. "For one, it is actually big enough for you to live on. This rock would barely allow itself to be carved into a cave. For another, there is real food, and civilization on the island which I shall send you. It was a retreat in the first age, and it is still a wonderful vacation place - merely, it is now a trap. A prison without bars." [23:47] * Jynaru shrugs. 'I'm relying on you either way we go, and you haven't exactly given me much reason to trust you. Hell, I haven't even slept with you, I hope." [23:48] * Jynaru holds up a hand. "Second opinion. Hey, Van, whaddya think?" [23:48] He looks at you worried for a moment, thrown off balance, then you look away... [23:48] * Vanal scowls [23:49] "surprised, Bloom ? " [23:49] * Vanal allows himself a smile [23:49] "I was just considering the possibility.. but no, I would remember." he raises an eyebrow in contest. [23:50] "Bloom, you're an asshole." [23:50] "And you're a legionaire" [23:50] * Vanal rubs his temples [23:50] * Jynaru groans. "No, dammit, on the deal. I know he's an asshole." [23:51] "I don't know this ...Sidereal. And it is tempting to just give you the finger and live on that rock...my I promised to kill you, Bloom." [23:51] "And I can't do that if I'm dead, can I ?" [23:51] "Jyn, I know this is goign to hurt, and it sounds callous...but give him the name...and may the Dragons give her mercy." [23:52] "'cause they sure as hell won't grant a sick fuck like you any, Bloom." [23:53] * Vanal uncrosses his arms, relveaing his rather intinidatiin physique [23:53] *intimidating [23:53] * Jynaru shrugs. "Gues the verdict is in, Bloom. Aren't you proud?" [23:53] He smiles slyly. [23:53] Vanal roll cha + presence [23:53] * Jynaru waves him closer. "Come here, and I'll tell you." [23:53] !ex 7 [23:53] Vanal : !ex 7, 10, 10, 5, 10, 6, 2, 4, Successes : 6 [23:53] impressive [23:54] Red Bloom walks closer to Jynaru [23:54] * Vanal gestures with his finger "and by the way, big boy....you've got some spinach between your teeth." [23:54] * Jynaru attempts to drape an arm around Bloom's shoulders, and leans over towards him. [23:55] unfortunately your arm goes right through him [23:55] * Jynaru blinks. [23:55] Red Bloom almost picks at his teeth but doesn't at the last moment [23:56] "You forget, I'm not really here." [23:56] "I'd *like* to forgot, but your ugly-ass face sitcks in one's memory." [23:56] * Jynaru shrugs. "I accidentally partook of your dusty druggy stuff." [23:58] He looks at you amused. "Good stuff, isn't it." [23:59] * Jynaru nods. "The hell you make that stuff out of, anyway?" [23:59] * Vanal files a mental note to smack Jyn uptop the head [23:59] he laughs. "It's not really mine, and I'd prefer not to know. I wouldn't reccomend using it, though... it is quite addictive." [23:59] * Vanal turns to some of the people on deck "Where the HELL did that fire start ?!" [00:00] "Tabius' room" [00:00] * Jynaru blinks. [00:00] they seem to have put out that fire [00:00] * Vanal nods...his eyes taking on a firey glint [00:00] * Vanal looks to see if Tabius is on deck [00:00] Tabius looks at Vanal defensively [00:00] Tabius is standing right next to you [00:01] * Vanal whirls around, grabs him by the lapels, and slams him down into the deck [00:01] * Jynaru whispers the name in Bloom's non-existant ear. [00:01] "YOU FUCKING IDIOI [00:01] Storyteller : !ex 7, 9, 8, 3, 4, 1, 6, 5, Successes : 2 [00:01] !ex 7 [00:01] *IDIOT [00:01] roll your attack if you really intend to ;) [00:01] !ex 6 [00:01] Vanal : !ex 6, 8, 7, 8, 8, 3, 8, Successes : 5 [00:01] Red Bloom nods to you, Jynaru, and steps back. [00:02] "Allright then, I'll give you one hour to prepare. I would reccomend going belowdecks until you are off the ground... otherwise the wind might blow you all away." [00:02] "May she rip out your intestines and strangle you with them." [00:02] He laughs, "hopefully, she won't have the occasion to try." [00:02] he then dissapears. [00:03] * Jynaru smiles contentedly and wanders over to the Vanal/Tabius battering. [00:03] "now, what's this about the fire starting where?" [00:03] * Vanal is on top of Tabs in a flash as soon as he touches down, still grabbing his lapels and scrwmaing obscenities in his face [00:03] [how long did that take?] [00:03] Vanal knocks Tabius to the ground, Tabius eyes glowing fiercely [00:03] [maybe... 20 minutes] [00:03] "NOw you listen to ME you arrogant little blighter !" [00:04] Tabius seems to be listening, not struggling overly much [00:04] "I don't give a RATS ASS about your SPELLS< YOUR SKILLS, YOUR STATUS...IF YOU EVER PUT OUR LIVES AT RISK LIKE THAT AGAIN, I WILL FUCKING KILL YOU !" [00:05] He looks at Vanal unhappily.... [00:05] "And I am NOT kidding...you do something like that again, you will *die*, by *my* hand if necessary." [00:06] ".... fah, you have no idea what just happened, do you?" [00:06] "This is known as the REAL WORLD, little man, not some queer little sorceror's workshop !" [00:06] "I was trying to PREVENT this, Vanal. Now get off me." [00:06] * Vanal applies a chokehold on Tabius [00:06] roll again brawl or MA [00:06] "Be quiet when I'm talking little bitch !"

Tabius slowly regains his feet, brushing the sand off his robes [00:08] * Vanal staggers back [00:08] * Vanal looks at him, his eyes are BLAZING red [00:08] * Jynaru watches quietly. [00:08] "Tabius, one question." [00:08] * Jynaru raises a hand and smiles mildly. [00:08] "DON'T threaten me, Vanal. If it wasn't for me, this ship would already be sunk!" he looks at Vanal angrily. [00:09] "Only THREE of the barrels exploded, you might notice, if you gave to care, instead of sitting around in your cabin fucking Shakel all day!" [00:09] * Jynaru begins to lose his smile. "Ahem." [00:09] * Maris has one of the lifeboats flipped over and he uses that to shelter from the dragon thing's wind. [00:10] * Vanal smirks "And *why* did those barrels explode ?!" [00:10] "BECAUSE YOU TAMPERED WITH THEM !" [00:10] "We are on a BOAT Tabius. YUO DO NOT MESS WITH EXPLOSIVE OR PLAY WITH FIRE ON A BOAT !" [00:11] "And *I* wasn't a fucking little coward RUNNING when the ship was in FLAMES." [00:11] Tabius laughs. "That's not true. My actions had nothing to do with the explosion. I checked the device myself... I triggered no trap!" [00:11] "From the fire *you* started." [00:11] "Bullshit." [00:12] * Jynaru glares at Vanal. "WILL THE BOTH OF YOU SHUT THE HELL UP?" [00:12] * Vanal fixes Tabius with his most indimidating glare [00:12] Tabius doesn't seem very affected [00:12] * Vanal looks anrgily at Jyn...and quiets down [00:12] * Tala is still meditating on the shore w/ her heartstones and attuning her artifacts [00:12] "Now, Tabius, just one question. What the hell is going on? [00:13] "Something triggered the firedust canisters. I had deactiavted one of them, and was disposing it, when the other three went off. I can only assume that something else besides me was the cause, because the device was far too simple to trigger on it's own. [00:14] "And the fire?" [00:14] [cicada you may interrupt whenever.] [00:14] [ok] [00:14] "I started it as a distraction to allow me to get belowdecks." [00:14] * Vanal turns a deep, DEEP red [00:14] "Ah. And in your wisdom, you decided not to tell us anything about this plan of yours?" [00:14] * Cicada moves up behind the argument. But pause. [00:15] "It would have been dealt with easily if it was not for *somebody* setting off the explosives." [00:15] * Vanal 's nostrils are puffing smoke right about now, as well [00:15] "You see, I remember something you told me once, about trust, and I was wondering why you thought it unwise to NOT notify people about the fact you might be messing with explosive things." [00:15] "Maris was going to try something... and I decided that I didn't have the time to wait." [00:15] "so you decided to play God with *our* lives." [00:15] Tabius looks around [00:16] * Jynaru blinks. "So that's what the whole thing about th life-boats was about." [00:16] "Has *anybody* seen maris?" [00:16] * Cicada walks apprenhisively up behind the two. [00:16] "I was too busy fighting a certain *fire* to see him." [00:16] "And where is Tei and Tala? and Irin?" [00:16] "Seems like EVERYONE is playing Dragons with our lives." [00:16] * Jynaru tosses off a short bow to Cicada. "Ah, and the accomplice returns. So, how did things go?" [00:16] "My lords, please stop arguing. If anyone is to blame for this disaster, it is this incompetent servant." [00:17] "I failed to serve properly." [00:17] "Oh, lay off the wounded martyr act, Cicada, let your master take responsability for his *own* actions for once." [00:17] "And gave my lord wrong information." [00:18] * Jynaru groans. [00:18] * Vanal mutters "and once again he hides behind his servant...coward." [00:18] Tabius looks at Cicada questioningly?! [00:18] "First I advised my lord to start the fire. And then I failed to inspect the detonation device properly before disarming it." [00:19] "Great, so the windchick here says it was her fault, the sorc says it's Maris's fault, and Maris says... Hey, Van? Why don't you go check the island for Maris and company?" [00:19] "If he was going to do something, that's probably where he would have went." [00:19] * Vanal nods [00:19] "Had I been more cautious, or even just used my brain a little, I would have known that the explosives were linked." [00:19] * Vanal is quivering in anger right about now, sick to DEATH of this whole master/servant routine [00:20] "Cicada, no." Tabius looks at Cicada... something inside of him moves gently... "I checked, they were not linked. They could not have been linked, it was not made like that." [00:20] "Fine, anything to get me away from the snivelling." [00:20] * Vanal tromps downstairs to get dressed [00:20] "Hey, Cic, shut it, would you? He says it didn't go boom because of that. It doesn't matter anyway. Ship's still here, we're still here." [00:20] "Cicada... come with me..." [00:21] * Cicada looks up at her lord with a start, then lowers her eyes, still trembling. [00:21] Tabius looks at Cicada and starts walking to the side of the ship [00:21] * Cicada follows. [00:21] * Jynaru sighs. (Is my pet guard around?) [00:21] Tabius stops at the side of the ship and looks over the side, towards the island and looking for anything he might see. [00:22] he is quiet for a long time. [00:23] * Cicada waits for whatever words her lord might have for her. [00:23] * Cicada tries desperately to fight back the fear that Tabius will throw her away again. [00:23] * Vanal gets dressed and takes a launch (with a few guards) to find the others [00:24] * Maris sits and waits under the watching the ship to see what is happening over there. [00:25] * Jynaru carefully sits the crate of sand down, and leans up against it. [00:28] * Tabius (~web-Guest@ip68-96-99-14.lv.lv.cox.net) has joined #pvpexalted [00:31] * Vanal and the guards who came with start searching for maris, tei, irin, and tala [00:31] allright [00:31] ---- [00:31] what is everybody doing [00:32] * Maris sits and waits under the watching the ship to see what is happening over there. [00:32] Jynaru? : [00:33] * Jynaru 's resting against the crate of sand and keeping half an eye on Tabs. [00:33] * Tala is meditating on the sand [00:33] Vanal? [00:33] [how long since the last time I asked? [00:34] 10 minutes [00:34] * Cicada is waiting for her lord to condemn her, or even worse, praise her. [00:34] * Vanal and the guards who came with start searching for maris, tei, irin, and tala [00:34] ok [00:35] Maris, Tala, you see a ship coming towards shore [00:36] looking closely you think you see Vanal on it [00:36] "AHOY !" [00:36] "Vanal!" [00:36] * Vanal has cooled off considerably, but is still in a none-too-pleasant mood [00:36] * Tala 's anima has faded to the point where her skin only has a faint lunimesence to it and a glossy wet sheen to it [00:37] * Maris looks at the others in it as he sits under his longboat. [00:37] [anima 2] [00:37] "The ship will be fine, no thanks to a certain sorceror. We're going to re-board and fly over to our ultimate destination." [00:38] "Which is damn sure more hospitable than this rock." [00:38] What's in the boat besides Vanal? [00:38] * Tabius looks at Cicada and smiles. [00:39] there are five guards [00:39] A metal one? [00:39] they seem to be of the normal complement of the ship, and are rowing and sterring it for him [00:39] no, the mortals [00:39] "The Anathema got the spirits here then? [00:39] * Maris waits in the shade as it gets close to chore. [00:40] the huge demon looms overhead, a strange shriek coming from it... long and drawn out like a steam engine wistle, and every bit as loud... it comes only once, and quickly ceases it's cry [00:41] shore even [00:41] "something like that." [00:41] * Vanal rubs his temples [00:41] * Tala stands and watches the boat [00:41] "Get Over here Vanal. Got something for you." [00:41] "I think we sohuld head back." [00:41] * Jynaru winces, and curses at the demon. [00:41] (Side o Ship) "Do we really know who set them off?' [00:41] * Maris reaches over and picks up a big cloth bundle from the back of the shadow and walks out of the shade in full armor and claws and tosses Vanal teh Package which inside has His Daiklaive. [00:41] Vanal your ship arrives [00:42] * Vanal beams [00:42] "DIVIDING WIND !" [00:42] "You men surrender or you die now." [00:42] * Maris says to the five gaurds [00:42] * Maris looks angry and pissed as he walks up. [00:42] (side) "No, my lord. I can only assume that Red Bloom detected the tampering and detonated them. I beg my lord forgive his servant's blindness." [00:42] And the watery folk still shadow him from the sides [00:42] * Werlynn [~Werlynn@ool-182ded4e.dyn.optonline.net] is on IRC (00:00) [00:42] Vanal you notice you don't have any weapons and Maris is fully armed and armored [00:42] * Werlynn (~Werlynn@ool-182ded4e.dyn.optonline.net) has joined #pvpexalted [00:42] wb [00:43] "I checked, there was nothing to link them, it was safe. There is another reason and I think I know who it was": [00:43] * Vanal erks [00:43] "Um, Maris buddy. No offense, but bad idea." [00:43] The Extra drop there weapons as i walk up? [00:43] "This is NOT the time." [00:44] (side o Ship) "Those who are conspiquisly aspent are first suspect, but Maris is certainly more at fault." [00:44] they don't drop them, but they weren't drawn in the first place [00:44] * Tala (~Werlynn@ool-182ded4e.dyn.optonline.net) Quit (Ping timeout) [00:44] (Side o Ship)"He gave warning to me and others to be near the life boats. He planned to blow them and had enough [00:44] * Maris backhands the closest then, "My island my rules. Now drop your weapons. [00:45] (Side o Ship) "influence with the guards to get where he needed to go." [00:45] "CYNIS MARIS ! STAND THE HELL DOWN !" [00:45] * Maris eyes Vanal with a smirk, "We're leaving soon anyways so you say." [00:45] (side) "My lord?! You mean the slave-fondling Cynis did this?!" [00:45] Vanal is the closest, he's on the prow, there are four rowing, one using the tiller [00:45] * Werlynn looks at Maris [00:45] (Side o Ship) "Course with them all being bound by substance it was not hard for a Cynis to do." [00:45] * Vanal 's color deepends again [00:46] "This is not a place to be stranded Maris. We are weeks from the Blessed Isle. You would not survive the trip in such a tiny boat." [00:46] "Maris, get on the fucking boat, we're going back to the ship. I've been in one fire, one fight, and one vicious argument. Don't make my day any worse." [00:46] * Werlynn is now known as Tala [00:47] * Maris chuckles, "We can survive here better then in some Anathema prison. All we need is some Spirit help." [00:48] "And I don't intend to be overwhelmed by Legionaires before I go." [00:48] "Maris, friend, look at me." [00:48] * Tala walks towards the ship's launch [00:48] "This is not a place to stay. you will die here if you stay, there's not enough fish or natural resources to survive. " [00:48] (side) "You mean this was all a power play? And he did it while my lord was right on top of those explosives...?" [00:49] * Cicada is digging her fingernails into the wood. [00:49] "The Sea is full of life Vanal. It would have provided. [00:49] "but like you said the Anathema's pulled a trump card." [00:49] "You are a good friend, and I trust you implicitly, show me the same trust and beleive me when I say that island will not be a prison, we WILL get off it." [00:50] [yarrrrrr, roll int + survival, me lads] [00:50] "So it would seem, of course, in my own way I was trying to prevent it.

[00:51] "And what of scurvy, Maris ?" [00:51] "Yuo don't have the foodstuffs here necessary to prevent it." [00:51] "Don't plan on being here long enough to get it. Tala or Tei can get the local spirit courts to get us out of here long before that." [00:52] * Vanal turns to the immaculates [00:52] "Are you two staying ?" [00:52] * Tala has already climbed into the boat [00:52] * Vanal looks at Tei "and you ?" [00:52] "Short of brute force, I could not make a spirit do anything for us." [00:53] "It matters not right now. There will be justice served later my friend, even if it be not by us." [00:53] "And I would not want to trust a spirit I bullied into helping me." [00:53] Tei shakes his head and gets abord. "Maris, the two of us would not be able to go far. I am of the fire dragon; I have very little power over the spirits of the sea." [00:53] Irin stands by maris, worried. [00:54] "Irin, I could order you to come aboard." [00:54] * Maris sighs, "The Demon wants me he can get me. As it is I'll be fine by myself. [00:54] "You could order me to come abord." [00:54] "Fucking A Maris, can't you goddamn give us a *little* faith ?!" [00:55] "I believe you'll survive. Take the artifacts I got out of the ship." [00:55] "But we both know you wouldn't listen to me...so I won't bother." [00:55] "I'll try and make it back on my own. [00:55] "Oh for the love of- [00:56] "If the Demon stops me so be it. If not I'll be able to get help for you all." [00:56] "You're going to *die* here, Maris." [00:56] * Vanal SO doesn't want to abandon a friend [00:57] * Maris looks at Vanal and finally sighs, "Alright I'll go back. I don't expect the Demon will let me on my own anyways." [00:57] * Vanal nods [00:57] "Thank the Dragons, if you'd kept refusing I would've been bound to stay here too..." [00:58] * Maris looks to the 6 men he got to go with him, "Get that lifeboat up and get the bags into it." [00:58] "Why do you think I said I'd go." [00:58] * Vanal chuckles [00:58] they nod and get to loading the boat, which is all full of water [00:58] "Jeez your honour will get you killed but i'll be damned if it's my fault it does." [00:59] * Maris looks to the soldiers on Vanal's boat and says holding up a clawed hand, "Give me shit and die anathema serving scum." [01:00] * Maris then gets in the boat and lets them head back to the main one. [01:00] "After the way I just snapped on the boat ?I don't think they'd want to."
