Session Start: Sat Mar 22 19:08:32 2003 [19:08] * ChanServ changes topic to 'Exalted: I see a ship in the harbor I can and shall obey But if it wasn't for your misfortunes I'd be a heavenly person today And I thought I was mistaken And I thought I heard you speak Tell me how do I feel Tell me now how should I feel (GoldenH)' [21:10] Smoke rises from cicada as sanyet kneels next to her, holding her up [21:10] Meanwhile, Tabius runs down the spiral staircase, find Tala keeping guard at the bottom. [21:11] Maris runs out from the stage, looking at you two, hearind Cicada's scream. [21:11] * Tabius_C looks at Sanyet as he rushes forward towards Tala's position, "Whats wrong?" [21:12] Sanyet and Cicada are out of sight in their side room [21:12] [i have no idea what's wrong] [21:12] [Nobody does] [21:12] * Tala shrugs [21:13] An eerie creeeeaaaak is heard from above, like the other massive door opening..... [21:13] [21:13] and silence... [21:13] * Tabius_C grinds to a halt. [21:14] * Tabius_C whispers, "A frell, I think the dung hath hit the rotating air moving mechanism." [21:15] "Tala, anything from down the stairs?" [21:17] [you haven't heard anything from downstairs] [21:17] * Tala shakes her head [21:17] [didn't see the answer to that in the logs] [21:17] [ok] [21:18] "OK. Well here goes nothing." Heads into the stair well and proceeds down stairs with his sword drawn [21:18] Maris turns to watch tabius go by, turning to look at Tala [21:21] * Tabius_C taking the stairs carefully as to not slip and slide on all the blood, makes his way to the bottom. [21:22] Tala, you are standing next to a large spiral staircase with a large room in front of you, and a smaller, but just as wide room behind you. Cicada's scream came from a small room behind you, and Maris is standing in front of you. [21:22] * Tala heads to the small room [21:22] * Cicada lies twitching and smoking on top of a similarily ravaged Sanyet on the blackened floor of the small room after the essence flash has burned through it. The roome stinks of burned skin and singed hair. [21:23] * Cicada has all in all not had a lucky day... [21:23] Sanyet has sense got out from underneath her and is holding her up. A charred pole sticks out of the wall, obviously melted in place. [21:24] * Tala moves to examine Cicada [21:24] * Cicada is coughing slightly as she begins to recover har senses. [21:25] medicine + perception, tala. [21:25] Storyteller (5) 3, 1, 4, 5, 10, Successes : 2 [21:25] !ex 5 [21:26] "something was wrong with the lever.." sanyet coughs, you notice he doesn't seem quite as bad as cicada. [21:26] "Backlash... burned... malfunction..." [21:27] !ex 3 [21:27] Tala (3) 2, 2, 1, Successes : 0 , Botch [21:27] * Cicada coughs again and tries to sit up, obviously in pain. [21:27] (....) [21:27] (craaaap) [21:27] Tala, Cicada is badly wounded! If she doesn't get help soon, she'll die from a mystic disease legendary for being caused by first-age essence burns. [21:28] (Tala either puts be down for being a helpless case or decides that nothing is wrong and push me into combat?) [21:28] "What is happening below? Did the door open..?" [21:30] * Tala tries to determine what needs to be done to help her [21:31] The only cure is to be drained completely of essence for a week, and to stay in bed, with a special herb found in the shadow of the imperial mountain. [21:31] * Cicada is missing her right arm and leg from the trap before, and is now severely burned as well. [21:31] burn the herb [21:32] (Cure = Anathema powered healing.) [21:32] (yea, tell that to Tala...) [21:32] (That will make her put me out of my misery for sure..) [21:33] (*shrug* I could send Sanyet off to beat the Sidereals into attempting to heal you, but we're closer to the Solars.) [21:35] (don't know if the anathema can heal her or not. the limbs, yes, but the disease?) [21:35] "Have we acquired the staff..?" [21:35] (Disease is nothing compared to missing limbs. As long as it isn't the Great Contagion, she'll be fine, or there'll be dead Anathema and a new head doctor.) [21:35] "That?" [21:36] "Hey... you guys better come see this..." [21:36] * Tala gestures to the pole [21:36] [that's just the thing that operates the door-opener] [21:36] (I assume the pole in the wall is the lever that burned us?) [21:37] "No, that is just the previously hidden lever..." [21:38] * Cicada recover enough to see that Sanyet is hurt and gasphs in fear. [21:39] * Cicada force herself to look over his wounds and apply what help she can to him. [21:40] Sanyet insists he is fine and has you lay down' [21:40] "I'm fine. Gotta get you out of here." [21:41] Outside, you here a ring of metal-on-metal and the sound of something sliding across the floor, with a thud! [21:41] * Cicada does as she is told, but still runs a hand over his body, leaving mere blisters and reddened skin where it before was cracked and charred. [21:41] (heal 4L I suppose?) [21:41] 4B [21:42] He wasn't as badly hurt... [21:42] (cannot do anything about bashing, Cic will to the stunt on herself then) [21:42] allright [21:43] (turned 4L to 4B) [21:46] * Cicada tries to get up, unless Sanyet is forcing her down or something. [21:46] (do we hear the beginning battle below?) [21:46] not FORCING forcing, but you know, he's holding you pretty much down [21:46] * Tala tries to help Cicada, how ever she can [21:46] nope, but you hear something outside... [21:46] Like.. a waterfall crashing on rocks.. or something. [21:47] "Tala, we have to see what is happening. How the others are doing..." [21:47] * Cicada and Sanyet leans on each other and makes ungainly for the large center room. [21:49] Sanyet stops Cicada when it is obvious some large, sinuous beast is crawling downstairs. With a growl, it looks at you.. and the door slams you in the face, knocking the two of you to the floor and locking the door! [21:49] [21:49] It was as if it was made out of water, the blackest ones you've ever seen... [21:49] * Cicada blinks. [21:49] "Tala, we have gotta get out of here. The others are being flanked!" [21:50] Sanyet groans from underneath your weight.. [21:50] * Cicada rolls off. [21:50] * Tala helps Cicada walk [21:50] he shakes himself off and stands, taking Cicada's other side as you walk through the tunnel towards the other door. [21:50] * Tala takes some of her weight so Sanyet doesn't have to hold it all [21:50] "Look for another exit. I will work on this one." [21:51] * Cicada checks the door for how it is locked. [21:51] There is another one [21:51] this one seems mystically locked.. [21:51] Remember the map? [21:51] (yes, there are two exits from the three linked small rooms.) [21:52] ok [21:52] unless you have some kind of magic de-locking charm... you don't see any keyhole or blot [21:52] bolt [21:53] "This one is sealed. Go for the other door." [21:53] * Cicada lets herself he dragged along to the other door by Sanyet and Tala. [21:55] As you naviagate through the side rooms, you hear the sounds of maris vailently fighting the great spirit guardian! [21:56] * Cicada urges the others to hurry. [21:56] "Do you hear that?" [21:56] the sounds of him being thrown around the room are obvious enough, and as you make it to the other door, you see the great spirit, black scales gleaming in the light from below and refracting them in a thousand tiny rainbows as it turns on him, Maris standing on the stage of the auditorium [21:56] "Yes!" [21:57] It does not see you as it advances on him, it's back to you... like a long worm with a dozen legs and two giant wings it advances on him... [21:57] he is stuck! [21:58] "Damn, gotta get him away from that corner. I'll distract the beast. Tala, get ready to fight." [21:58] "You, Sanyet, get ready to run for your life, and your wife's and baby's." [21:59] Sanyet draws his sword... [21:59] * Cicada pulls herself up in Sanyet arms so she has her left arm free. "Now, my love, be my legs." [21:59] Sanyet looks at Tala then sheathes his sword, holding cicada to himself [22:00] * Cicada then lest August Moon fly thrice at the beast with her left hand. [22:00] make your attacks! [22:00] (left hand -2?) [22:00] -1 for off-hand [22:01] !ex 13 (2 motes for +4) [22:01] Cicada (13) 8, 2, 9, 1, 3, 5, 10, 5, 7, 8, 6, 8, 9, Successes : 8 [22:02] it ignores your attack!

[22:35] * Jynaru explodes out of the stairwell, leaving a bright green streak in the air as he barrels towards the monster, which grows steadily, the whriling trail of essence forming slowly into a great cat striding at high-speed through the air, when he suddenly impacts the beast, the light growing dim for a moment as he lashes out in a frenzy of motion, essence powered strikes tearing him a pathway through the beast before the essence shockwa [22:35] Long, I know. Just tell me where it cut off. [22:35] essence shockwa [22:36] impacts it, shattering it into a million droplets of dark water as a drenched Jynaru emerges into a room lit by verdant rainbows, grinning ferally as he slides to a stop.

[22:43] * Storyteller shrugs. it's a baaad spirit. [22:43] (Now crushing us poor fellows?) [22:43] Sanyet carried you to safety [22:43] * Cicada sees the beast rool towards them but cannot do anything. Sanyet however in a demonstarion of complete love and total fear, jumps over its rolling form, runs sideways on the wall past it and traling a stream of tears of terror from his eyes fly like a wind towrards his destination. [22:43] you're going downstairs. [22:44] * Jynaru screams out "FINISH UP! THE PLACE IS SINKING!" [22:44] (had to get that stunt off. :) [22:44] good stunt :) [22:44] next turn... [22:44] init!

[22:50] It's a RIVER of water. [22:50] Fuxxor. Dodging it is. [22:51] * Cicada and Sanyet were in the dooe way down. Sanyet, seeing the impending watery doom, scream and never stopping his wail runs straight up the side of the doorway round the arch and come down on the other side just as the wave passes, drawing a circle of panicky tears after him that mixes with the rushing water. [22:52] (With Cic in his arms, of course) [22:52] (What will the dodge roll be? Mine or his?) [22:52] * Jynaru barely has time to peel himself off the wall when he turns and a great river of brackish water barrels down on him he returns to the wall, digging in with his claws as he speeds his way up to the roof, each step a heartwrenching moment of falling before the secure grasp of the claws pull him out of the way as he springs down from the celing in a diving axe kick straght through the neck of the beast.

But realize the existence of a force called gravity, and fall towards the water rushing by. Landing on the board of an ancient wooden table, he surfs all the way down, his panicked scream echoing through the tunnel, audible even over the roar of the water. [22:55] (happy now? we are going down as you wish. :) [22:55] Jynaru! Lethal soak. [22:55] (heh) [22:55] (good :) [22:55] (so dodge for both of us?) [22:55] I dodged the attack.
