- [2012-11-27 20:24:02] <Falconis> WHEN WE LAST SAW OUR HERO
- [2012-11-27 20:24:24] <Falconis> He met a little girl with a thing for strings until Clemency introduced her to hard rock
- [2012-11-27 20:24:56] <Falconis> It is the morning of the following day
- [2012-11-27 20:25:27] <Falconis> Clemency and Miles have spend a long time running, bedding down miles away from the abyss by nightfall
- [2012-11-27 20:25:53] <Falconis> They still go west, as Jacob directed, hoping to meet the teachers he promised
- [2012-11-27 20:26:06] <Falconis> but who knows what the future holds, what decisions may be made?
- [2012-11-27 20:26:12] <Falconis> Lets find out
- [2012-11-27 20:26:15] <PriceisMagic> Paranoia powers go!
- [2012-11-27 20:26:51] <Falconis> You awaken to the sounds of birds chirping, singing their morning song, or maybe arguing about who had the rights to the early worm
- [2012-11-27 20:27:12] <Falconis> Clemency is nowhere in sight, though her huge pack of hugeness sits by the tree where she left it
- [2012-11-27 20:27:32] <Falconis> Your white clothes are spotless despite having bedded down on the forest floor last night
- [2012-11-27 20:27:49] <Falconis> though the rest of you, not so much
- [2012-11-27 20:27:56] <Falconis> what shall you do this fine morn?
- [2012-11-27 20:28:25] <PriceisMagic> Wair for Clemency!
- [2012-11-27 20:28:34] <PriceisMagic> And be on high alert
- [2012-11-27 20:28:43] <Falconis> k then
- [2012-11-27 20:30:12] <Falconis> You wait where you are for Clemency's return. The birds eventually grow tired of their argument and head off to who knows where. A rabbit hops, searching for food. A fox stalks the rabbit.
- [2012-11-27 20:30:30] <Falconis> The wind blows and you hear chimes and is that water?
- [2012-11-27 20:30:40] <Falconis> Time passes
- [2012-11-27 20:30:43] <PriceisMagic> ...chimes?
- [2012-11-27 20:30:47] <Falconis> chimes
- [2012-11-27 20:31:12] <PriceisMagic> Wheres the water coming from?
- [2012-11-27 20:32:04] <Falconis> somewhere to your left, though it sounds faint. You are just barely able to pick it up when the wind blows the right way.
- [2012-11-27 20:32:30] <Falconis> To your left is west
- [2012-11-27 20:32:34] <PriceisMagic> Hmm, wait a bit for a bit longer
- [2012-11-27 20:32:50] <Falconis> Time passes
- [2012-11-27 20:34:35] <Falconis> The sunlight makes shimmering shadow plays on the barks of trees and the surface of the earth. A fox is denied his meal, a rabbit escapes into a thornbush. It's difficult to say how long it took, but you would guess that in no longer than an hour since your waking, you hear someone approaching from the west.
- [2012-11-27 20:34:36] <Falconis> >_
- [2012-11-27 20:36:06] <PriceisMagic> wait for them to approch
- [2012-11-27 20:36:10] <PriceisMagic> approach
- [2012-11-27 20:36:15] <Falconis> you wait
- [2012-11-27 20:36:18] <PriceisMagic> still on high alert
- [2012-11-27 20:36:23] <Falconis> 1,1roll dodge
- [2012-11-27 20:37:00] <PriceisMagic> (that a joke?)
- [2012-11-27 20:37:10] <Falconis> (yes)
- [2012-11-27 20:37:13] <Falconis> In no more than a minute, Clemency has come into sight, marching back to where you wait
- [2012-11-27 20:37:16] <PriceisMagic> (thought so)
- [2012-11-27 20:37:26] <PriceisMagic> "There you are"
- [2012-11-27 20:37:37] <Falconis> she carries two wooden buckets, water sloshing from the lips
- [2012-11-27 20:38:10] <Falconis> She looks up and you and manages an uneasy smile
- [2012-11-27 20:38:34] <Falconis> [Clemency]"Good, you are awake. We can't stay here long."
- [2012-11-27 20:38:51] <Falconis> She finishes her ascent and sets the buckets down on a relatively flat stone
- [2012-11-27 20:39:15] <Falconis> [Clemency]"Here, I brought some water. You have food?"
- [2012-11-27 20:39:38] <PriceisMagic> "Uh, I got some jerky?"
- [2012-11-27 20:41:21] <Falconis> [Clemency]"That will have to do. I couldn't stop to forage much." She nods and rummages around in her huge pack of hugeness and produces some nuts, which she begins to nibble on
- [2012-11-27 20:41:38] <Falconis> >_
- [2012-11-27 20:41:50] <PriceisMagic> Shrug an chow down on some jerky
- [2012-11-27 20:41:58] <Falconis> it is jerktastic
- [2012-11-27 20:44:49] <PriceisMagic> "Whats with the water?"
- [2012-11-27 20:44:57] <Falconis> She perks up
- [2012-11-27 20:45:25] <Falconis> [Clemency]"Water is water. What, you don't want any? I'll be mad you know"
- [2012-11-27 20:46:09] <PriceisMagic> "No, never mind"
- [2012-11-27 20:46:28] <PriceisMagic> "...wait, I want the water"
- [2012-11-27 20:47:18] <Falconis> She cocks and eyebrow and then returns to eating
- [2012-11-27 20:50:21] <Falconis> <_<
- [2012-11-27 20:50:22] <Falconis> >_>
- [2012-11-27 20:50:26] <Falconis> ok then
- [2012-11-27 20:50:27] <PriceisMagic> ?
- [2012-11-27 20:50:33] <PriceisMagic> I'm done eating
- [2012-11-27 20:50:33] <Falconis> Time passes I guess
- [2012-11-27 20:51:32] <Falconis> Clemency grabs her huge bag of hugeness and gets up after about 2 minutes
- [2012-11-27 20:51:39] <Falconis> [Clemency]"Ready?"
- [2012-11-27 20:51:54] <PriceisMagic> "Yes
- [2012-11-27 20:51:55] <PriceisMagic> "
- [2012-11-27 20:52:59] <Falconis> [Clemency]"Good, We'll be making a stop in civilization today, in a little village called Hani."
- [2012-11-27 20:53:29] <Falconis> With that, she sets off away from the rising sun, angled a bit southwards down the mountain
- [2012-11-27 20:53:38] <Falconis> at her usual running pace
- [2012-11-27 20:53:55] <PriceisMagic> Fllow after her
- [2012-11-27 20:55:03] <PriceisMagic> "So you said you taught Sasaki that trick where he felt like he was as hard as rock, how did you do it?"
- [2012-11-27 20:56:13] <Falconis> You run, you both run. This is getting kind of tiring, not even during Master Sasaki's crazy training sessions did you have to run this much. You speak, and she grins a grin that reminds you of your old master.
- [2012-11-27 20:56:17] <Grail> (Oh yeeeeaah-hard as a rock)
- [2012-11-27 20:56:21] <Falconis> (lol)
- [2012-11-27 20:56:53] <PriceisMagic> (god damn it Grail)
- [2012-11-27 20:58:33] <Falconis> [Clemency]"Hmm, well you know how it feels when you throw those blades of air right? That feeling that you just used up something inside you?"
- [2012-11-27 20:58:57] <PriceisMagic> "Yes"
- [2012-11-27 20:59:53] <Withdrawal_Flake> (Oh god falcon, every intro you make has to be a double-entendre, doesn't it?)
- [2012-11-27 21:00:04] <Falconis> (if im lucky)
- [2012-11-27 21:00:07] <Falconis> "Well, that's the core, the essence of being an Element. Tapping that. Now as an element of earth, I can draw power from it.
- [2012-11-27 21:00:29] <Falconis> "A lot of people aren't as lucky as you or I, takes them ages to learn, but... here let me show you"
- [2012-11-27 21:01:07] <Falconis> She stops and carefully sets her bag on the ground and takes up a visibly steady stance
- [2012-11-27 21:01:09] -->| Jurokoko (cgiirc@Rizon-1B549E4C.adsl.user.start.ca) has joined #anti-matter
- [2012-11-27 21:01:56] <Falconis> [Clemency]"When you try to draw power from the elements, it's important that your body, mind and soul are in the right place, or you'll just end up hurting yourself"
- [2012-11-27 21:03:34] <Falconis> She takes a deep breath and holds it, becoming completely still. She stands there for a good 10 seconds, and if you didn't know any better you would have thought her an incredibly lifelike statue.
- [2012-11-27 21:04:53] <Falconis> Then she exhales slowly, and you... feel a pressure on you, like it's pushing you down. A vein in your head throbs.
- [2012-11-27 21:05:47] <Falconis> [Clemency]"Become what you want in body, in mind, and then soul. Envision it, and well, see for yourself"
- [2012-11-27 21:05:55] <Falconis> She pokes out her chin invitingly
- [2012-11-27 21:06:29] <PriceisMagic> (Ihavenoideaswhatsgoing.jpg)
- [2012-11-27 21:06:47] <Falconis> (sucks)
- [2012-11-27 21:07:08] <Falconis> >_>
- [2012-11-27 21:07:08] <Falconis> <_<
- [2012-11-27 21:07:32] <PriceisMagic> (gimme a sec, tyign to think)
- [2012-11-27 21:07:47] <Falconis> welp, looks like I have to cut back on theory
- [2012-11-27 21:08:02] <Withdrawal_Flake> (go with the practical, PiM! Kiss her already!)
- [2012-11-27 21:08:09] <Falconis> (>_>)
- [2012-11-27 21:08:27] <PriceisMagic> (I'm not good at this stuff)
- [2012-11-27 21:08:40] <PriceisMagic> (Its why I dont post in GfH)
- [2012-11-27 21:08:55] <Falconis> (no problem)
- [2012-11-27 21:09:00] <Falconis> anyway, shit happens
- [2012-11-27 21:09:15] * Withdrawal_Flake patspats PiM
- [2012-11-27 21:09:20] <Withdrawal_Flake> (I know that feel)
- [2012-11-27 21:09:40] <Falconis> roll 1d100, beat 70 to learn basic element syncing
- [2012-11-27 21:09:41] <Falconis> >_>
- [2012-11-27 21:09:57] <PriceisMagic> inb4 1
- [2012-11-27 21:10:00] <PriceisMagic> .dice 1d100
- [2012-11-27 21:10:00] <Classhole> PriceisMagic: Average(77.00) Total(77) Rolled(1d100=77)
- [2012-11-27 21:10:04] <PriceisMagic> HA
- [2012-11-27 21:10:45] <Falconis> CONGRATS
- [2012-11-27 21:10:57] <Falconis> YOU NOW UNDERSTAND BASIC ELEMENT SYNCING
- [2012-11-27 21:11:06] <Withdrawal_Flake> (da da da da da-da daaaaaa!)
- [2012-11-27 21:11:36] <Falconis> the element of air is an element of motion and wits
- [2012-11-27 21:11:50] <Falconis> speed more accurately
- [2012-11-27 21:12:11] <Falconis> syncing with air will make you faster and/or sharper mentally for a while
- [2012-11-27 21:12:40] <Falconis> takes about half hour on average at your current level to do it right
- [2012-11-27 21:12:42] <PriceisMagic> Awesome
- [2012-11-27 21:13:51] <Falconis> it's up to you now to advance in that, Clemency can't teach you any more there because she is earth
- [2012-11-27 21:14:42] <Falconis> however she does suggest looking into that thing Sasaki loved so much, she calls it Vanish Step, though if that's the real name (or if there is a proper name) she doesn't give a damn
- [2012-11-27 21:14:51] <Falconis> Sasaki used it on you in your exam >_>
- [2012-11-27 21:14:58] <Falconis> CONTINUING
- [2012-11-27 21:15:02] <Withdrawal_Flake> (Go Ninja, go ninja GO!)
- [2012-11-27 21:15:47] <Falconis> A few hours have passed while you learned element syncing and Clemency is eager to go lest a little girl throws a tantrum
- [2012-11-27 21:16:05] <Falconis> You do notice one thing however, that when you sync up, your breath does the cold thing
- [2012-11-27 21:16:11] <Falconis> just, all the time
- [2012-11-27 21:16:26] <Falconis> and it's still happening for now since you are still synced
- [2012-11-27 21:17:03] <PriceisMagic> Does it drain power?
- [2012-11-27 21:17:09] <Falconis> no
- [2012-11-27 21:17:17] <PriceisMagic> Ok then
- [2012-11-27 21:17:22] <Falconis> it just takes time to start up
- [2012-11-27 21:17:34] <Falconis> unless you cheat like Sasaki
- [2012-11-27 21:18:23] <Falconis> so, anything to add before she tries to get going to Hani?
- [2012-11-27 21:18:48] <PriceisMagic> mmmmm nope
- [2012-11-27 21:19:14] <Falconis> ok, she gets moving
- [2012-11-27 21:19:17] <Falconis> and I assume you follow
- [2012-11-27 21:19:43] <PriceisMagic> Yup
- [2012-11-27 21:20:18] <Falconis> You notice that you have less trouble keeping up now, feels a lot easier to run. In half an hour you clear the forest and see Hani in the distance
- [2012-11-27 21:20:59] <Falconis> a quaint little village by a river, musical wind chimes carry on the air as you approach
- [2012-11-27 21:22:43] <Falconis> People wave at you as you pass and more than a few call Clemency by name and offer her things. She leads you to a two story building, the only one in town from the looks of it and knocks on the door.
- [2012-11-27 21:23:57] <Falconis> [Clemency]"I have to ask someone about those teachers Jacob mentioned and get some supplies. Meet me back here by sundown"
- [2012-11-27 21:24:17] <PriceisMagic> Ok
- [2012-11-27 21:24:27] <Falconis> with that she steps though the slightly open door into a dark room beyond and the door slams shut behind her
- [2012-11-27 21:24:28] <Falconis> >_
- [2012-11-27 21:24:45] <PriceisMagic> wonder around n shit
- [2012-11-27 21:26:17] <Falconis> wandering anywhere in particular, or are you going with random wandering around Hani
- [2012-11-27 21:26:26] <PriceisMagic> Look for shops!
- [2012-11-27 21:28:48] <Falconis> You find a shop, a squat building made out of wood and open at all sides, the roof instead supported by 4 poles in the corners and a thick pillar in the center around which items are displayed
- [2012-11-27 21:28:53] <Falconis> a man sits there looking bored
- [2012-11-27 21:29:10] <PriceisMagic> wonder on inside
- [2012-11-27 21:29:18] <PriceisMagic> look at his stuff
- [2012-11-27 21:30:04] <Falconis> He has food, tons of food
- [2012-11-27 21:30:14] <Falconis> and a modest tool section
- [2012-11-27 21:30:30] <Falconis> clothing, utensils, everything a small village needs
- [2012-11-27 21:32:19] <PriceisMagic> hmm
- [2012-11-27 21:32:44] <PriceisMagic> Wonder aounr town at random
- [2012-11-27 21:32:47] <PriceisMagic> around
- [2012-11-27 21:34:21] <Falconis> You wander around town at random, people give you odd looks and in general stay away from you. Abour two hours later, you have seen the entire village, at least what you can see without going inside buildings
- [2012-11-27 21:34:56] <PriceisMagic> How much longer till sun down?
- [2012-11-27 21:35:00] <Falconis> there are houses, farms, a single blacksmith, the shop, what seems to be a traders place and a temple
- [2012-11-27 21:35:09] <Falconis> where the chimes come from
- [2012-11-27 21:35:17] <Falconis> it is a bit after noon now
- [2012-11-27 21:35:28] <PriceisMagic> hmm
- [2012-11-27 21:35:39] <PriceisMagic> Whats the traders place?
- [2012-11-27 21:37:35] <Falconis> It's a locked building, single floor but very wide. It has a trading pavilion out front and has a plaque that says 'Shades Co' on the door.
- [2012-11-27 21:37:51] <PriceisMagic> huh, ok then check out the temple
- [2012-11-27 21:38:40] <Falconis> You check out the temple
- [2012-11-27 21:39:38] <PriceisMagic> scope that shit out
- [2012-11-27 21:40:13] <Falconis> it seems to be the most well cared for place in the entire village. It is a single story, square building surrounded by a spacious green garden. The floor around it is swept clean of excess dirt and debris, and wind chimes are hung pretty much everywhere, clinking loudly every time a breeze passes through
- [2012-11-27 21:40:29] <Falconis> You see a few people in White and blue robes moving about inside.
- [2012-11-27 21:41:21] <PriceisMagic> (elemental syncings still going isn't it?)
- [2012-11-27 21:41:23] <Falconis> yes
- [2012-11-27 21:41:26] <Falconis> yes it is
- [2012-11-27 21:41:29] <PriceisMagic> awesome
- [2012-11-27 21:42:16] <PriceisMagic> hmm
- [2012-11-27 21:43:07] <PriceisMagic> Check out the black smith I guess
- [2012-11-27 21:43:28] <Falconis> You check out the blacksmith
- [2012-11-27 21:44:09] <Falconis> It is loud, black smoke pours out of a chimney and the sounds of a ROARING furnace fill the air as you approach
- [2012-11-27 21:44:38] <Falconis> A man sits in front of a furnace, unblinking as flames dance about 3 feet from his face
- [2012-11-27 21:44:43] <Falconis> staring into it
- [2012-11-27 21:45:16] <Falconis> he is covered in soot and grime and holds a colossal hammer with a strange gap in the top in his right hand.
- [2012-11-27 21:46:10] <Falconis> >_
- [2012-11-27 21:46:35] <PriceisMagic> uh
- [2012-11-27 21:46:38] <PriceisMagic> gimme a sec
- [2012-11-27 21:48:06] <PriceisMagic> What does he have on the walls and stuff?
- [2012-11-27 21:48:59] <Falconis> tools
- [2012-11-27 21:49:04] <Falconis> Iron tools of all kinds
- [2012-11-27 21:49:31] <PriceisMagic> Hmm
- [2012-11-27 21:49:31] <Falconis> things of strange shapes you cannot possibly imagine the use for and other more recognizable tools like tongs
- [2012-11-27 21:52:18] <PriceisMagic> uhhhhhh
- [2012-11-27 21:52:34] <PriceisMagic> I guess watch him a bit
- [2012-11-27 21:52:53] <Falconis> k
- [2012-11-27 21:53:38] <Falconis> He sits staring at the forge for a few minutes more, unblinking and then suddenly he moves, shoving the hammer into the furnace in one smooth motion and twisting the handle
- [2012-11-27 21:54:24] <Falconis> He draws out, a red hot cuboid of metal, hooked in the hammers gap and sets it on an anvil, where he begins wacking with one hand
- [2012-11-27 21:54:32] <Falconis> You notice he only HAS one hand
- [2012-11-27 21:54:35] <Falconis> the left is missing
- [2012-11-27 21:55:22] <Falconis> He wails on the metal relentlessly like a demon beating the drums of hades, staring intently and unblinkingly at his work
- [2012-11-27 21:56:24] <Falconis> Then just as suddenly he scoops up the metal with his strange hammer and plunges it back into the flame,
- [2012-11-27 21:57:28] <Falconis> He reaches with his hammer and closes the furnace doors, closing it tight by inserting the hammer into a spot that seems made for it and turning
- [2012-11-27 21:57:39] <Falconis> the doors lock with a loud clang
- [2012-11-27 21:57:56] <Falconis> and the man sets down his hammer, exhales loudly and walks out of the building
- [2012-11-27 21:58:30] <Withdrawal_Flake> (How ripped is he?)
- [2012-11-27 21:58:33] <Falconis> He goes over to a trough of water and douses himself
- [2012-11-27 21:58:56] <Falconis> (his arm is almost as thick as your torso)
- [2012-11-27 22:00:17] <Falconis> >_
- [2012-11-27 22:00:33] <PriceisMagic> Let out a sigh and just kinda wonder around some more
- [2012-11-27 22:00:51] <Falconis> <_<
- [2012-11-27 22:00:53] <Falconis> >_>
- [2012-11-27 22:01:21] <PriceisMagic> wonder over to the forst
- [2012-11-27 22:01:26] <PriceisMagic> a bit
- [2012-11-27 22:01:28] <PriceisMagic> and the river
- [2012-11-27 22:02:56] <Falconis> sec
- [2012-11-27 22:05:25] <Falconis> You wander over to the forest
- [2012-11-27 22:08:01] <Falconis> The forest is just as you remember it, trees dirt and wind. The sound of chimes carries on the air up to you, even here. An owl hoots at you.
- [2012-11-27 22:08:37] <PriceisMagic> ...an owl?
- [2012-11-27 22:08:57] <Falconis> yes, an owl, a beautiful silver owl stands on a branch and hoots it you
- [2012-11-27 22:09:11] <PriceisMagic> Stare at the fucker
- [2012-11-27 22:09:16] <Falconis> he stares back
- [2012-11-27 22:09:27] <PriceisMagic> "...dont you only come out at night?"
- [2012-11-27 22:09:28] <Falconis> yellow eyes piercing your soul
- [2012-11-27 22:09:34] <Falconis> *hoot*
- [2012-11-27 22:09:53] <Withdrawal_Flake> (Kaine's gone off the deep end-talking with an owl!)
- [2012-11-27 22:10:09] <Falconis> The owl turns it's body around while keeping it's head facing you
- [2012-11-27 22:10:15] <PriceisMagic> (Hes bored as fuuuuuuuck)
- [2012-11-27 22:10:38] <PriceisMagic> (He'd talk with a rock if he had to)
- [2012-11-27 22:10:55] <Falconis> it bobs up and down and spreads his tail feathers at you in a way you instinctively feel is a disrespectful action
- [2012-11-27 22:10:56] <Withdrawal_Flake> (There are better things for Kaine to do when alone and very bored)
- [2012-11-27 22:11:06] <Falconis> It hoots
- [2012-11-27 22:11:15] <PriceisMagic> Flip it off and move on
- [2012-11-27 22:11:31] <Falconis> It hoots at you as you leave
- [2012-11-27 22:11:37] <Falconis> You head down to the river
- [2012-11-27 22:11:43] <PriceisMagic> he'll get his...
- [2012-11-27 22:12:23] <Falconis> People are by the edge, hastily washing clothing and trying to catch the last of the sun
- [2012-11-27 22:12:39] <Falconis> The river gurgles and splashes, it is a river
- [2012-11-27 22:12:59] <Falconis> a lone fisherman sits near the end, a rod with no string in his hands
- [2012-11-27 22:13:12] <PriceisMagic> ....watch him
- [2012-11-27 22:13:13] <Falconis> an leatherskinned tanned old man in a broad hat
- [2012-11-27 22:13:18] <Falconis> he just sits there
- [2012-11-27 22:13:28] <PriceisMagic> I must learn his secrets
- [2012-11-27 22:13:30] <Withdrawal_Flake> (Aw shit, is it the infamous leather hobo?)
- [2012-11-27 22:15:02] <Falconis> You watch him for half an hour, and just when it seems like nothing is going to happen
- [2012-11-27 22:15:07] <Falconis> a fish jumps into his lap
- [2012-11-27 22:15:22] <Falconis> he takes it, puts the pole on his back and walks off
- [2012-11-27 22:16:38] <PriceisMagic> "The fuck"
- [2012-11-27 22:18:15] <Falconis> you proclaim your bewilderment to the world, and the world does not take notice
- [2012-11-27 22:18:35] <PriceisMagic> How much longer till sundown?
- [2012-11-27 22:19:20] <Falconis> It is afternoon now and the sky is turning the pinkish red glow of sunset
- [2012-11-27 22:19:39] <PriceisMagic> wonder over to the house and wait for Clemency
- [2012-11-27 22:20:22] <Falconis> aaaaand this is where I cut it
