  4. [04:43:56] * You have been awarded 1.5 Roleplay Points! *
  5. [05:15:31] Lotlhuitl loitered in the main Cruxati courtyard. Gradually edging closer to Xitlalli. Not looking at her. Decidedly not looking at her. The Nagual's gaze was actively focused on some point in the middle distance, looking only at the dancer out of the corner of her green eyes.
  6.  
  7. Until she was.. right. Next to her.
  8.  
  9. Lotlhuitl's tail twitched.
  10.  
  11. "Xitlalli." Lotlhuitl said, speaking the dancers name in lieu of greeting. "Have you seen Chieftess Kayeliun..?"
  12. (Lotlhuitl)
  13. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  14.  
  15. [05:20:38] Xitlalli hadn't managed to find Zahhual, which left her feeling sort of down; such a thing had been splashed onto her face with the currently gloomy expression she was maintaining. It was a shame, really, a new mask and all and she just wasn't able to gift to the woman, she wasn't able to impress her teacher and per Oyaotl's advice?
  16.  
  17. Capture their heart.
  18.  
  19. "Pffeh...", a small sigh slipped out, back hunched over, body leaning against the temple wall.
  20.  
  21. ...Until that is a name was called out her; her name.
  22.  
  23. "Ommh?", with a quick snap, Xitlalli broke out of her idle state, glancing over to the Nagual with a most curious gaze.
  24.  
  25. "No, I have not, Lotlhuitl.", the dancer states, wondering to herself as to why the woman was no longer aiming for eye contact in conversation.
  26. (Xitlalli)
  27. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  28.  
  29. [05:27:28] Lotlhuitl made a small (annoyed!) sound under her breath. Her blue-black tail flicking back and forth as she continued to stare into the middle distance. "I have something to deliver to her." She stated, as if such words would change Xitlalli's answer. "From Macha."
  30.  
  31. The Nagual remained by Xitlalli's side, gaze slooowly flicking over to inspect the dancer as she leant against the temple wall. Her tail continued to twitch and flick back and forth as she joined the dancer by the wall. "What are you doing here? Who are you waiting for?"
  32.  
  33. She was curious, naturally, but somehow the tall Nagual had a brusque manner and tone which suggested more.. outrage, than any degree of friendly interest, no matter how friendly she might have been trying to be.
  34. (Lotlhuitl)
  35. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  36.  
  37. [05:41:07] A delivery, from the likes of Macha; the name did not sound familiar unfortunately! So Xitlalli could not be much help in regards to such a thing, but she could tell the Nagual that the...
  38.  
  39. "Chieftess ain't here."
  40.  
  41. It was short lived, Xitlalli's speech there.
  42.  
  43. "I was looking for Zahhual but unfortunately she isn't around. I don't know where she is, I have a gift for her.", she pulls out a big looking, spooky mask! It design origins from that of the homelands; it appears like a horned wraith?
  44.  
  45. "I came back here, as a result.", the dancer looks down to the ground, inspecting her own feet, sighing loudly.
  46.  
  47. "Hrmh, anything the problem?", the brusque tone that Lotlhuitl had however was picked up by Xitlalli, her eyes not shifting for the time being. Her voice picking up as if to be loud and clear, so Lothuitl could hear her question.
  48.  
  49.  
  50. (Xitlalli)
  51. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  52.  
  53. [05:54:46]
  54. {LOAD GAME}
  55.  
  56. [06:00:44] Lotlhuitl shook her head, emphatically. "I'm fine." She was fine. Fine. Completely fine! The Nagual had forgotten her attempts to not look at Xitlalli, it seemed, as she had turned her delicate face to the dancer. Green eyes squinting as she inspected the other woman's face. "Hm," she said, tail still twitching. "That is disappointing." She commented.
  57.  
  58. "I.. also have a gift for Zahhual." Lotlhuitl added. "But.. that's more.. personal. The stuff I've got for the Chieftain is business!"
  59.  
  60. Her tail twitched, and she leant against the wall, next to Xitlalli, with her good arm. Her right. Her left was in a sling. It still.. hurt, but she wasn't in constant agony any more.
  61.  
  62. "That.. that is interesting." Lotlhuitl breathed, speaking about the mask intended for Zahhual. "Did you make this, Xitlalli?"
  63. (Lotlhuitl)
  64. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  65.  
  66. [06:10:08] Completely fine, that was good!
  67.  
  68. Least that was what Xitlalli thought to herself as she held the massive mask, slowly rotating the item around, inspecting it idly as she spoke. The mask was made exactly the same in appearance to Zahhual's current one, the only twist being that, it was brand new, clean and slightly more sturdy and reinforced!
  69.  
  70. "Oh... What is your gift?", the dancer's voice picked up, her ears twitching up and down ever so slightly as she heard the talk of Lothuitl having a gift for her teacher. Competition perhaps, or so Xitlalli assumed.
  71.  
  72. "More personal? Explain. Is my teacher, would like to know, is only fair and right."
  73.  
  74. The more Xitlalli spoke, the more 'creepy' she sounded, almost fanatical albeit, not in a zealous religious manner; it was faint, as if there was compulsion where there shouldn't be any in the first place.
  75.  
  76. "Yes, I made this mask, is one of the couple of the gifts I wish to give to Zahhual.", her blue eyes blinked a few times as she said this, fingers gripping the mask as to keep it 'frozen', only to look up and focus on Lotlhuitl's face; eye contact being sought out.
  77. (Xitlalli)
  78. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  79.  
  80. [06:25:29] "Hmmm." Lotlhuitl's ears had twitched as she reached out to attempt to trace a finger over the mask Xitlalli had made for Zahhual. Zahhual's mask. Or. Would be Zahhual's mask. A new one. "Hm."
  81.  
  82. "I suppose I could tell you." Lotlhuitl murmured, fluttering her dark eyelashes Xitlalli's way as she smiled. Lotlhutl was not commonly known to smile. She didn't consider herself a smiler. She was serious. Gloomy. And if Xitlalli was at all familiar with the tall Nagual with the blue-black hair, she likely would have noticed it as unusual.
  83.  
  84. "What's it worth to you?" Lotlhuitl asked, expression once more returning to INTENSE seriousness.
  85. (Lotlhuitl)
  86. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  87.  
  88. [06:31:28] The dancer tilted her head to the side, peering at Lotlhuitl for a moment or two, as to judge their character, to judge their position in relation to her own self. Yet even then she held the mask there, as the Nagual inspected the mask, tracing as it were.
  89.  
  90. "You suppose?", Xitlalli questioned, lips forming a slight pouty shape as her eyebrows furrowed, only to relax a moment later she spied a smile creeping onto the Nagual's face. After all, it was unusual, especially the question that came along afterwards.
  91.  
  92. "Not sure, not as much as my gifts to my teacher.", the dancer smiled at the end of her sentence, her fingers digging into the mask; it wouldn't damage it, but rather it was somewhat possessive of the item -- the mask was a sign of Zahhual after all.
  93.  
  94. Besides it was aimed as a spear to crack that intense serious expression that belonged to the gloomy Nagual!
  95.  
  96. "You being a little shy or lacking of esteem to notshare what your gift is worth to me? Mmm?", Xitlalli leaned back, maintaining that cheery smile, except the corners of her mouth pulled back a bit more, white teeth beginning to show -- not quite a grin.
  97. (Xitlalli)
  98. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  99.  
  100. [06:41:42] Lotlhuitl continued to lean her left shoulder against the wall, her body all but invading Xitlalli's personal space. Her left arm, of course, was still in a sling. Useless. Her right, however, was fine. Fine, and her hand continuing to trace the (admittedly lovely!) mask which Xitalli wanted to gift to her teacher.
  101.  
  102. The Nagual laughed, her tail continuing to twitch. It wasn't an ill natured laugh, or one supposed to particularly shame Xitlalli (whom she actually did like!). But it was still a laugh, nonetheless. Lotlhuitl returned Xitlalli's smile with another of her own: more sharp teeth than, strictly speaking, could be considered particularly friendly... but. She meant well. Really. This time, at least.
  103.  
  104. "No, I suppose not as much as your gifts to Zahhual." Lotlhuitl admitted, for once feeling no shame in admitting her own insufficiency. No. What she did protest was the second thing Xitlalli said. "I'm not shy," she protested, before obvious bemusement tugged at her lips. "I just was curious what you would give me, in return. Will you tell me what other gifts you are giving Zahhual, if I tell you what I want to give her?"
  105.  
  106. Why did she care what Xitlalli gave her teacher? Strictly speaking, she didn't. "I just don't believe in doing anything for nothing, Xitlalli.."
  107. (Lotlhuitl)

  116. [07:05:36] LOOC - Ajax: (hey atro who made the guardian ritual?)
  117. [07:09:52]
  118. {LOAD GAME}
  119.  
  120. [07:09:52] Xitlalli took notice of Lotlhuitl's stance against the wall there, which somewhat budged in on her personal space. A touch annoying but Xitlalli couldn't complain, after all, it surely meant that she was great to be around, right!
  121.  
  122. More to the point, her mask was surely grasping quite the attention from Lotlhuitl; Xitlalli could only hope that it'd get the same notice from her teacher, Zahhual.
  123.  
  124. "Ah..."
  125.  
  126. Hearing the confession, did infact garner some sense of relief in Xitlalli's mind however, her eyes relaxing somewhat as she strengthened that smile of hers. Though the protest along the lines of 'not shy', was something the dancer focused on for a moment.
  127.  
  128. "Really? Could have fooled me. As for what I'm going to gift Zahhual, aside from the mask, is a bit of a secret but it's... I'm not too sure. It's a bit of a 'jack in the box' kind of ordeal."
  129.  
  130. Only for her voice to trail off into another subject, blowing around like the wind.
  131.  
  132. "Mmm. It's a surprise, yes, yes."
  133.  
  134. Xitlalli did not know that Lothuitl cared not, but she could appreciate their stance on not believing in doing anything for nothing; Xitlalli could get behind that idea, heavily so.
  135. (Xitlalli)
  136. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  137.  
  138. [07:10:43] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (U wanna enter Dmex?)
  139. [07:10:43] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (im just chillaxin by the wall)
  140. [07:11:34] LOOC - Dmex: (im lazy...)
  141. [07:24:22] LOOC - Cocinar: (Oh, a fight :o)
  142. [07:28:38] LOOC - Xoconan: (Dmex your reign of terror has come to an end)
  143. [07:28:38] LOOC - Xoconan: (I've come to put you down)
  144. [07:28:38] LOOC - Dmex: (try it)
  145. [07:28:38] LOOC - Xoconan: (say ur prayers)
  146. [07:32:54] Lotlhuitl continued leaning against the wall, finger brushing against the mask Xitlalli held. She showed no sign of stopping, though, if Xitlalli moved the mask out of reach she wouldn't pursue it.
  147.  
  148. A small frown. She wasn't shy.
  149.  
  150. "It is just something I owe Zahhual, from years ago. A child's attempt at rune working. She told me to hold onto it until after she returned from the war. And.. well. I held onto it, and now the war is over. At least until the Jiangs betray us."
  151.  
  152. Lotlhuitl dug into one of her pockets, the frown deepening. A few random items (twine, bits of bone, feathers) were withdrawn, before a small suede pouch was retrieved. The random items replaced, her delicate fingers withdrew her present.
  153.  
  154. It was a spirit fetish, carved with runes. Washed with blood.. and now, a few gems were set into it. Gems Lotlhuitl had 'found' in the ruins of Avalon. The gris-gris had a cat carved into it.Some of the work was new, more or less sophisticated. The cat? Old. Somewhat clumsy.
  155.  
  156. "Sentimental of me. It was supposed to be a panther."
  157.  
  158. Her hand closed around the item (gently!) as she glanced to the south.
  159.  
  160. Xoconan and Dmex.
  161.  
  162.  
  163. (Lotlhuitl)
  164. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  165.  
  166. [07:33:45] Cocinar and a small gathering appeared, as would normally happen if a fight occurs. He leans against the temple and watches
  167. (Cocinar)
  168. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  169.  
  170. [07:34:36] LOOC - Cocinar: (Hope you don't mind, not many people here atm x-x)
  171. [07:34:36] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (its fine :P)
  172. [07:40:35] Eventually the mask found itself stowed away, concealed by leather and cloth; shoved into a bag by two hands, as to keep it safe until the time was right to present it to the dancing shaman. This of course prevented Lotlhuitl from reaching out and continuing to touch it.
  173.  
  174. "Something you owe, huh."
  175.  
  176. Eyes went downwards, daring onto the small carving that was to be the present to Zahhual; it grabbed Xitlalli attention for a moment or two, as she studied it. It didn't look too bad, in the dancer's opinion, but it could have been a lot better.
  177.  
  178. If anything it gave a slight surge of confidence to Xitlalli, her expression brightening up by a smidge amount.
  179.  
  180. "A panther. Big cat, yeah? Looks decent as is.", the opinion wasn't false, it wasn't entirely genuine; Xitlalli had indifference to it mostly, but it was positivity she wished to display towards someone considered a friend!
  181.  
  182. Both of the dancer's hands eventually returned to her front, clapping and rubbing away dust and dirt.
  183.  
  184. "I'm sure she'll appreciate it."
  185.  
  186.  
  187. (Xitlalli)
  188. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  189.  
  190. [07:41:26] LOOC - Xoconan: (is dmex going to post a thing?)
  191. [07:42:17] LOOC - Dmex: (i hate rp)
  192. [07:42:17] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (makes sense)
  193. [07:42:17] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (dmex killed rp)
  194. [07:42:17] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (:P)
  195. [07:43:08] LOOC - Xoconan: (is there anything dmex doesn't hate?)
  196. [07:43:08] LOOC - Xoconan: (hersel- "I just wanna die")
  197. [07:43:08] LOOC - Xoconan: (nope)
  198. [07:44:00] LOOC - Dmex: (there's a very small list of things she doesn't hate)
  199. [07:45:42] It was odd, how her stomping grounds had changed over years. Ezmara to Cruxati, and never once the original tribe that adopted her, Xoconan now found herself around familiar faces.
  200.  
  201. Well- two faces and a mask, anyway. She wondered briefly if she'd ever see past it.
  202.  
  203. "Up to something?" She asked upwards towards the temple, a brief nod going to Dmex. "Planning something devious I need to close my eyes for?"
  204. (Xoconan)
  205. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  206.  
  207. [07:46:33] LOOC - Xitlalli: (wait why did i get 1rpp at 170 :confuse:)
  208. [07:46:33] Harima walks by the square and notes whom he is looking for is not around. He turns around and heads back to Maiya's place of business. His slit eye blinking slowly, moisturizing his iris's. He licks his teeth and walks off with haste.
  209. (Harima Ouji)
  210. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  211.  
  212. [07:46:33] LOOC - Xitlalli: (i thought it was 0.75)
  213. [07:46:33] LOOC - Harima Ouji: (CAUSE THEY DONT LOVE YOU
  214. [07:46:33] LOOC - Harima Ouji: (nah, they boosted rpp
  215. [07:46:33] LOOC - Xitlalli: (:blink:)
  216. [07:46:33] LOOC - Harima Ouji: (it'll be .75 at like 180/190
  217. [07:46:33] Dmex says, "Sometimes I close my eyes because I don't want to look at somebody."
  218. [07:46:33] LOOC - Xitlalli: (oh thank god)
  219. [07:46:33] Dmex says, "Nobody knows."
  220. [07:47:24] Lotlhuitl says, "Thanks. "
  221. [07:47:24] Lotlhuitl says, "At this stage, it's more.. what it represents, I suppose, than how good it is. "
  222. [07:48:16] Xitlalli says, "Mmm."
  223. [07:48:16] Xitlalli says, "Up to nothing, just talking."
  224. [07:50:49] Xoconan says, "Disappointing."
  225. [07:51:40] Xoconan says, "Best times in the world are had when someone's up to something."
  226. [07:51:40] Dmex says, "I have no active schemes, myself."
  227. [07:51:40] Dmex says, "Only patience."
  228. [07:51:40] Xitlalli says, "Hm, just getting a gift for my teacher, nothing devious about it."
  229. [07:52:32] Lotlhuitl says, "It's a little bit devious."
  230. [07:52:32] Xitlalli says, "No, it isn't."
  231. [07:52:32] Lotlhuitl says, "Hah. Okay. If you say so, XItlalli."
  232. [07:52:32] LOOC - Xoconan: (I look to my inactive good mod)
  233. [07:52:32] LOOC - Xoconan: (And I weep)
  234. [07:53:23] Xitlalli says, "I do say so."
  235. [07:53:23] LOOC - Dmex: (wanna do a dangerous)
  236. [07:53:23] LOOC - Xoconan: (sure)
  237. [07:53:23] LOOC - Xoconan: (let's do this dmex)
  238. [07:53:23] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (-ded-)
  239. [07:53:23] LOOC - Dmex: (scene: dmex is walking around juggling knives, and trips)
  240. [07:53:23] LOOC - Dmex: (xoconan is in the way)
  241. [07:53:23] LOOC - Dmex: (roll to not die)
  242. [07:53:23] LOOC - Xoconan: (:thonkery:)
  243. [07:53:23] LOOC - Xitlalli: (oof)
  244. [07:53:23] LOOC - Xoconan: (I'm not dead)
  245. [07:53:23] LOOC - Xoconan: (get fucked)
  246. [07:53:23] LOOC - Dmex: (he survives with a permanent nerf)
  247. [07:54:14] LOOC - Dmex: (the knife stabs him in the eye)
  248. [07:54:14] LOOC - Xoconan: (that's not how deadlies work)
  249. [07:54:14] LOOC - Xoconan: (u thot)
  250. [07:54:14] LOOC - Dmex: (it was cap 3)
  251. [07:54:14] LOOC - Xitlalli: (anyway time to sleep.)
  252. [07:54:14] LOOC - Cocinar: (This a bad time to ask for a good RP? ;w; Sorta new, might have played like a year ago x-x)
  253. [07:54:14] Xitlalli slips away casually, because she had sleeping to do.
  254. (Xitlalli)
  255. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  256.  
  257. [07:54:14] Xitlalli says, "Bye."
  258. [07:54:14] LOOC - Xoconan: (afk while I cook breakfast)
  259. [07:55:05] LOOC - Cocinar: (lel)
  260. [07:55:05] Dmex asks, "...Oh. Right. Lotlhuitl?"
  261. [07:55:05] Cocinar goes to talk to each of the fighters, after the fight had occured
  262. (Cocinar)
  263. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  264.  
  265. [07:55:05] LOOC - Dmex: (there. there was no fight)
  266. [07:55:05] LOOC - Cocinar: (What? x-x)
  267. [07:55:56] LOOC - Cocinar: (Eh, oh well x-x It's void then)
  268. [07:55:56] Dmex waves the Nagual over to her side.
  269. (Dmex)
  270. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  271.  
  272. [07:57:39] Cocinar says, "Hey, anyone seen Karma? He... she... was busy earlier."
  273. [07:57:39] Lotlhuitl says, "<* approached!* >"
  274. [07:58:30] LOOC - Cocinar: (lel)
  275. [07:58:30] Lotlhuitl asks, "... have you seen Karma, Dmex?"
  276. [07:58:30] Lotlhuitl asks, "What *has* Karma been up to?"
  277. [07:58:30] Lotlhuitl says, "<suspiciously innocent tone>"
  278. [07:58:30] Cocinar says, "I'm afraid I wouldn't know myself, came out of hiding myself. Funny stories aside..."
  279. [07:59:21] Dmex says, "Have not seen Karma recently, no."
  280. [07:59:21] Lotlhuitl asks, "... aren't you his warchief, Great Spirit?"
  281. [07:59:21] Dmex says, "Yes."
  282. [07:59:21] Lotlhuitl asks, "Does.. he neglect you, now that the Jiangs allege they want peace?"
  283. [07:59:21] Dmex says, "No."
  284. [08:00:12] Dmex whispers: We have plans for the remnants, and Jianghu. Please don't worry.
  285. [08:00:12] Cocinar fumbled and reached into his rucksack, and afterwards, walks over to the two.
  286. (Cocinar)
  287. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  288.  
  289. [08:00:12] Dmex whispers: Plans that I've made.
  290. [08:00:12] Lotlhuitl whispers: ... ah. That makes more sense.
  291. [08:00:12] Dmex whispers: Things that must remain quiet.
  292. [08:00:12] Lotlhuitl whispers: Ah.
  293. [08:01:04] Cocinar glances between the two of them, and steps back, giving them a moment
  294. (Cocinar)
  295. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  296.  
  297. [08:01:04] Lotlhuitl glances at person she has never met before!
  298. (Lotlhuitl)
  299. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  300.  
  301. [08:01:55] Lotlhuitl says, "We have not seen Karma recently. No doubt the ... delightful fellow is doing something suitably intelligent and fitting as his status as warchief with his time."
  302. [08:01:55] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (er
  303. [08:01:55] Lotlhuitl says, "chieftain, rather."
  304. [08:02:46] Cocinar says, "This can wait. I have been hiding for quite a while, so I do believe I would need to learn what has happened as of late."
  305. [08:02:46] Dmex says, "...I hope that isn't a euphemism."
  306. [08:02:46] LOOC - Cocinar: (I am aware there is more than what's on the forum page x-x)
  307. [08:02:46] Lotlhuitl asks, "Euphemism?"
  308. [08:02:46] Lotlhuitl asks, "Hiding?"
  309. [08:03:37] Cocinar says, "I was one of the first to arrive, but at a very young age, as a villager of sorts. I ran away and lived in these forests for a while."
  310. [08:03:37] Lotlhuitl says, ".. hm."
  311. [08:04:28] LOOC - Cocinar: (I sorta screwed up with age, since it hasn't even been 30 years since the RP has started apparently)
  312. [08:04:28] Dmex says, "I've been on Agartha for..."
  313. [08:05:20] Dmex sets a hand against the side of her mask, tapping away at it.
  314. (Dmex)
  315. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  316.  
  317. [08:05:20] Dmex says, "About half my life, I believe."
  318. [08:05:20] Dmex says, "Interesting."
  319. [08:05:20] Cocinar says, "Me? Practically all my life, came as a young boy... though it's been far too long to remember much."
  320. [08:06:11] Cocinar asks, "Would either of you prefer to talk this over with some jerky?"
  321. [08:06:11] Lotlhuitl says, "... I wouldn't say no."
  322. [08:06:11] Dmex says, "I would say no."
  323. [08:06:11] LOOC - Cocinar: (lel)
  324. [08:07:02] Cocinar says, "Of course warchief, you are busy, and there is always something."
  325. [08:07:02] Cocinar blinks a few times, having misheard Lotlhuitl
  326. (Cocinar)
  327. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  328.  
  329. [08:07:53] Cocinar says, "And you appear to be nursing a wound. Perhaps rest would help."
  330. [08:07:53] Lotlhuitl says, "..."
  331. [08:07:53] Lotlhuitl says, "Ah. Well."
  332. [08:07:53] Lotlhuitl says, "The short of it is, welcome back to civilisation, I guess."
  333. [08:08:44] Lotlhuitl says, "We vanquished our foes. Avalon burnt."
  334. [08:08:44] Lotlhuitl says, "And now the Jiangs seek to enter in a period of peace with us."
  335. [08:09:36] Cocinar says, "Oh? That is... a lot."
  336. [08:09:36] Lotlhuitl says, "I am Lotlhuitl, of the Cruxati. Handmaiden to the Great Spirit, Dmex. "
  337. [08:10:27] Cocinar says, "Ah, I am Cocinar, I believe I initally arrived as a slave. Hence I ran."
  338. [08:10:27] Lotlhuitl says, "This is the Great Spirit, Dmex. Warchief of Ezmara."
  339. [08:10:27] Lotlhuitl says, "..."
  340. [08:10:27] Dmex says, "...Interesting title, Lotlhuitl."
  341. [08:10:27] Dmex asks, "Chose it yourself?"
  342. [08:10:27] Lotlhuitl says, "... ah."
  343. [08:10:27] Cocinar says, "It is great to meet you, Dmex, Lotlhuitl."
  344. [08:10:27] Dmex says, "- Not that I disapprove."
  345. [08:11:18] Lotlhuitl became somewhat embarassed, rubbing behind an ear.
  346. (Lotlhuitl)
  347. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  348.  
  349. [08:11:18] Cocinar says, "Ah, of course."
  350. [08:11:18] Lotlhuitl says, "Yes. Well."
  351. [08:11:18] Xoconan says, "... I'm not gonna start calling you by a title Dmex, other than Warchief."
  352. [08:12:09] Cocinar fumbles with his rucksack once more, accidently pricking himself on one of his knives. He takes out a somewhat bloodied satchel of jerky, and presented it to his new... fellow Gehennans? That'd work
  353. (Cocinar)
  354. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  355.  
  356. [08:12:09] Dmex says, "I don't care about this information, Xoconan."
  357. [08:12:09] Dmex says, "You're, presently, irrelevant."
  358. [08:12:09] Dmex says, "I was speaking to one of my followers."
  359. [08:13:00] Lotlhuitl whispers: I.. did make it up.
  360. [08:13:00] Lotlhuitl embarassed.
  361. (Lotlhuitl)
  362. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  363.  
  364. [08:13:00] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (er)
  365. [08:13:00] Lotlhuitl was embarassed, even.
  366. (Lotlhuitl)
  367. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  368.  
  369. [08:13:00] Cocinar says, "Please. It is nothing of spice at home, but most certainly has some punch to it."
  370. [08:13:00] LOOC - Cocinar: (Something wrong? I am aware of inv space)
  371. [08:13:00] {Item} You picked up Jerky.Dropped by Cocinar. .
  372. [08:13:52] Lotlhuitl accepted the jerky.
  373. (Lotlhuitl)
  374. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  375.  
  376. [08:13:52] Dmex waves away the offering.
  377. (Dmex)
  378. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  379.  
  380. [08:13:52] Cocinar says, "Ah, my bad. Perhaps a feast for you later."
  381. [08:13:52] LOOC - Cocinar: (It ate my post ;-:)
  382. [08:13:52] Cocinar says, "Ah a feast for you later then, war chief."
  383. [08:14:43] LOOC - Xoconan: (That was a good breastfast)
  384. [08:14:43] LOOC - Cocinar: (lel)
  385. [08:14:43] Dmex says, "No. Never."
  386. [08:14:43] Dmex says, "I don't suffer from hunger."
  387. [08:14:43] LOOC - Xoconan: (fried eggs, sausage, and cinnamon rolls)
  388. [08:14:43] LOOC - Cocinar: (*Envy*)
  389. [08:15:34] Cocinar says, "You do not? Pity, on my end. I've learned to only cook. Regardless, I do have a small story to tell."
  390. [08:16:25] Lotlhuitl asks, "... pity?"
  391. [08:16:25] Lotlhuitl says, "Very well, speak."
  392. [08:18:08] Once, the first time I tried to re-enter town, a pair of kids arrived, seeing me. I had forgotten I was covered in mud, and they attacked, and drove me back for a while.
  393.  
  394. After a nice bath, scrubbing the mud off, I had looked for them and tried to apologize, but never found them.
  395.  
  396. I find it amusing is all, since I used mud to hide myself from boars.
  397. (Cocinar)
  398. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  399.  
  400. [08:18:08] LOOC - Cocinar: (Opps, all that is spoken x-x)
  401. [08:18:59] Lotlhuitl says, "Right."
  402. [08:19:50] Lotlhuitl asks, "Who.. did that?"
  403. [08:19:50] Cocinar says, "Again, I never found those kids again. But, laughter is the best medicine. I hope it was amusing in some sense."
  404. [08:20:41] Lotlhuitl says, "... I'm not sure I agree."
  405. [08:20:41] Lotlhuitl says, "... everyone here could vouch with me, that if someone had rendered that humilation on me, I'd seek vengeance."
  406. [08:20:41] Dmex says, "I'd seek justice."
  407. [08:20:41] Dmex says, "...The two are often one-in-the-same."
  408. [08:21:32] Cocinar asks, "What justice is to be found if the perpetrator has vanished?"
  409. [08:21:32] Cocinar says, "Like a boiling pot, you'd simmer until all the water, all the life, has risen into air."
  410. [08:21:32] Cocinar says, "Makes bad soup"
  411. [08:23:15] LOOC - Dmex: (fuck yeah)
  412. [08:23:15] LOOC - Dmex: (i run)
  413. [08:23:15] LOOC - Cocinar: (X_X)

  416. [08:24:06] LOOC - Dmex: (ahem. i run)
  417. [08:24:06] Cocinar says, "I believe there is little else to be said. I will see to it that many will be fed while I am around."
  418. [08:24:57] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (i have fat mage legs)
  419. [08:24:57] LOOC - Dmex: (i have SLICK mage legs)

  421. [08:24:57] LOOC - Cocinar: (I have skinny mage legs, Flaco)
  422. [08:25:48] Cocinar says, "Thank you for your time, Lotlhuitl, Dmex."
  423. [08:25:48] LOOC - Xoconan: (GET FUCKED)
  424. [08:25:48] LOOC - Cocinar: (2k :o)
  425. [08:25:48] LOOC - Dmex: (why is it always popping my lowest flees)

  450. [15:19:40] Jokor asks, "Are there any Blacksmiths available here?"
  451. [15:20:32] Glasya Labolas says, "Not myself, that's for certain."
  452. [15:21:23] JaDrako Kumo exclaims, "Hello to all new peeps!"
  453. [15:21:23] Xitlalli asks, "Blacksmiths? What for?"
  454. [15:22:14] Jokor says, "Runescribe..."
  455. [15:22:14] Erenan Qi says, "Now I depart. I waste my time, on a lesser creature such as you."
  456. [15:23:05] Mila says, ". . ."
  457. [15:23:05] Mila says, "Huh."
  458. [15:23:05] Xitlalli says, "Yes, I'm a runescrbe."
  459. [15:23:05] Glasya Labolas says, "Ah, apologies for him, Mila darling."
  460. [15:23:05] Xitlalli says, "Scribe*"
  461. [15:23:05] Xitlalli says, "But what'd you want a smith for? I know a couple."
  462. [15:23:05] Glasya Labolas says, "Most demons are quite rude."
  463. [15:23:05] Jokor says, "I need a prosthetic. And your help in getting it on..."
  464. [15:23:05] She walked over to the blue hair boy and smiled. "Hello there."
  465. (Adria Miko)
  466. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  467.  
  468. [15:23:56] Xitlalli asks, "How'd you lose a part of you, huh?"
  469. [15:23:56] Mila says, "It is alright, Glasya. I've never really spoken to many demons, so it is up to debate whether they are rude or not. You've been very kind."
  470. [15:23:56] Glasya Labolas asks, "Of course, darling. I like to think ahead, yes?"
  471. [15:23:56] Mila says, "I'm sure he was just.. irritated or something."
  472. [15:23:56] Glasya Labolas says, "Making enemies over nothing isn't sustainable."
  473. [15:23:56] Jokor says, "Honor duel. Your People's customs...."
  474. [15:24:48] Kayeliun asks, "...are you not one of us, now?"
  475. [15:24:48] Xitlalli asks, "Honour duel, hah? Who'd you lose to?"
  476. [15:24:48] Xitlalli asks, "What was the duel about?"
  477. [15:24:48] Kayeliun asks, "Why do you still speak like an outsider?"
  478. [15:24:48] Jokor says, "I am....But your customs confuse me.."
  479. [15:24:48] Lotlhuitl approached Kayeliun. The gloomy Nagual woman had a large sack scooped up under her right arm. It was filled with something heavy. Not too heavy, but still.
  480.  
  481. "My Chieftess," Lotl began, disregarding the conversation which had been occurring around the courtyard. "I've got something for you. A delivery."
  482.  
  483. The Nagual with the blue-black hair hugged the sack to her chest as she spoke. A task which would've been easier, if she'd had full usage of both arms. Her left arm was notably still injured, still in a sling.
  484. (Lotlhuitl)
  485. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  486.  
  487. [15:24:48] Jokor says, "I lost to Zyanya. Siter of Atl."
  488. [15:24:48] Kayeliun says, "Xitlalli, don't assist him if he won't assimilate properly and accept our customs as his."
  489. [15:24:48] LOOC - Jokor: (sister*)
  490. [15:24:48] JaDrako Kumo says, "He bullied his capture and got them taken from him."
  491. [15:24:48] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (sitter..)
  492. [15:24:48] Xitlalli says, "Yes, Chieftess."
  493. [15:25:39] Xitlalli says, "Already been trying to make the other ones assimilate."
  494. [15:25:39] Xitlalli says, "Kalisha made good progress, same with Ellenore."
  495. [15:25:39] Jokor says, "Assimiltion is not the problem. I've been here only a few months."
  496. [15:25:39] Kayeliun looks over at Lotlhuitl, nodding and holding out a hand to accept the burden.
  497. (Kayeliun)

  500. [15:25:39] Nádúr glanced at her. "Greetings.." he responded. he closed his eyes taking another sip of his tea, that was all that was left in the cup so he put it away afterwards. "What brings you here, talking to me?"
  501. (Nádúr )
  502. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  504. [15:25:39] Jokor says, "I just need to be fixed before my next duel..."

  508. [15:25:39] {Item} You drop Mythril Cuisse.
  509. [15:26:30] The tribeless nagual only watches in silence, unsure how to react, unsure if she were even allowed to be here. For now, she held her arms together over her stomach, a smile on her lips.
  510. (Mila)
  511. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  512.  
  513. [15:26:30] Lotlhuitl says, "From Macha."
  514. [15:26:30] Kayeliun slowly blinks.
  515. (Kayeliun)
  516. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  517.  
  518. [15:26:30] Glasya Labolas says, "See? That white haired one makes enemies. Too many. Quite the problem."
  519. [15:26:30] Xitlalli asks, "He bullied his capture?"
  520. [15:26:30] Jokor says, "I have no idea why this one wants to battle me..."
  521. [15:26:30] Jokor says, "He just claims he wants my leg..."
  522. [15:26:30] Kayeliun says, "...interesting. My warchief finally shows herself."
  523. [15:26:30] JaDrako Kumo says, "He tortured her mentally and physically."
  524. [15:26:30] Xitlalli looks over to JaDrako, squinting for a moment; almost as if she was ASKING for more information from expression and body posture alone.
  525. (Xitlalli)
  526. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  527.  
  528. [15:27:21] Xitlalli says, "W-What."
  529. [15:27:21] Kayeliun asks, "Do you have armor of your own, Lotl?"
  530. [15:27:21] "Just got bored and you seem like a loner over here, all by yourself" She stood beside him, turning but still watching him.

  542. [15:27:21] Jokor asks, "Torture?"
  543. [15:28:12] Xitlalli says, "You best hope that isn't true, whoever you are."
  544. [15:28:12] JaDrako Kumo says, "You told the kid she had no friends."
  545. [15:28:12] Lotlhuitl asks, "I would. Are you offering me one?"
  546. [15:28:12] Glasya Labolas says, "The white haired one was very... disgustingly creepy."
  547. [15:28:12] Kayeliun says, "Yes, yes. Take."
  548. [15:28:12] Jokor says, "I only tugged at her emotions..."
  549. [15:28:12] {Item} You picked up Mythril Cuisse.Dropped by Lotlhuitl. .

  553. [15:28:12] JaDrako Kumo says, "Made her watch her parents die"
  554. [15:28:12] Xitlalli glances over to Jokor, dropping her usual cheery expression, face twisting into a frown!

  569. [15:29:04] Glasya Labolas whispers something.
  570. [15:29:04] Kayeliun says, "You're welcome. You've done a lot for Cruxati, Lotl. You deserve a gift of some kind."
  571. [15:29:04] Kayeliun says, "...now...."
  572. [15:29:04] Glasya Labolas whispers something.
  573. [15:29:04] Kayeliun glances over at JaDrako, and back to Xitlalli and the Atl boy.

  576.  
  577. [15:29:55] Glasya Labolas whispers something.
  578. [15:29:55] He sighed at the quite true remark "I don't believe I would fit in with many people around here.. Most people are super battle hardy and the only thing on their brains are honor and the glory of battle.. I don't speak on everyone's behalf but a big handful, I on the other hand fight because I have to.. I'm not driven by some kind of thrill or lust" He said packing up his tea making supplies into his pouch.

  582. [15:29:55] Glasya Labolas whispers something.
  583. [15:29:55] JaDrako Kumo says, "They now want to leave you could have converted them."
  584. [15:29:55] Glasya Labolas whispers something.
  585. [15:29:55] Mila whispers something.
  586. [15:29:55] Lotlhuitl slooowly looks towards JaDrako, Xitlalli and Jokor, following Kayeliun's gaze.
  587. (Lotlhuitl)
  588. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  589.  
  590. [15:30:46] Lotlhuitl whispers: ... what did I miss?
  591. [15:30:46] Glasya Labolas whispers something.
  592. [15:30:46] Xitlalli says, "Ah... Done."
  593. [15:30:46] Mila whispers something.
  594. [15:30:46] Kayeliun whispers: I'm trying to figure it out, myself. It appears the Atl have been torturing someone.
  595. [15:30:46] Mila whispers something.
  596. [15:31:37] Lotlhuitl whispers: ... of course they have.
  597. [15:31:37] Glasya Labolas whispers something.
  598. [15:31:37] Lotlhuitl whispers: For any reason in particular, or just because they could?
  599. [15:31:37] Glasya Labolas whispers something.
  600. [15:31:37] Kayeliun whispers: We're awaiting what I assume is an explanation... but likely just because they could.
  601. [15:31:37] Mila whispers something.
  602. [15:31:37] Xitlalli says, "Anyway... Where was I? Ah yes, the capture; the fact you'd rather bully them than make them Gehennan is quite frankly, disgusting."
  603. [15:31:37] Xitlalli says, "And I doubt JaDrako is telling me lies."
  604. [15:31:37] Glasya Labolas whispers something.
  605. [15:31:37] Kayeliun says, "It's a cowardly tactic but one the Atl use quite frequently."
  606. [15:32:28] Kayeliun says, "I would believe it."
  607. [15:32:28] "I guess so, I don't fight much either yet but I might later on just for fun of course but I don't want to kill anyone or anything like that" She said then continued talking. "Anyways I'm Adria, you are?"
  608. (Adria Miko)
  609. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  610.  
  611. [15:32:28] Xitlalli says, "It's unacceptable, to me that sounds like they're holding a would be Gehennan hostage. Is most distasteful."
  612. [15:32:28] Lotlhuitl stood tall by Kayeliun, silent. Expression serious.
  613. (Lotlhuitl)
  614. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  615.  
  616. [15:33:20] Mila whispers something.
  617. [15:33:20] Glasya Labolas whispers something.
  618. [15:33:20] Glasya Labolas whispers something.
  619. [15:33:20] Wu Zetian asks, "Greetings, would a speaker for the Cruxati please make themselves avaliable?"
  620. [15:33:20] Lotlhuitl asks, "... do you want me to talk to this person, Kayeliun?"
  621. [15:34:11] Kayeliun says, "...yes, if you would. Judging by their appearance, I'd assume they have some kind of message."
  622. [15:34:11] Lotlhuitl says, "Very well."
  623. [15:34:11] LOOC - Jokor: (oi stop the white text)
  624. [15:34:11] Wu Zetian says, "That's correct, I have a message to the Cruxati Chieftain or your War Chief."
  625. [15:35:02] Wu Zetian says, "If you could please direct me to either-"
  626. [15:35:02] Kayeliun says, "I am the Chieftess, but momentarily occupied. Lotl will receive the message and deliver it to me."
  627. [15:35:02] It seemed there were many political issues currently in Cruxati, and thus, Mila would bow her head toward the demonness she held company with and moved from the Cruxati square.
  628. (Mila)
  629. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  630.  
  631. [15:35:02] Kayeliun says, "You can tell her."
  632. [15:35:02] Glasya Labolas says, "Farewell, Mila."
  633. [15:35:02] Mila says, "See you another time, Glasyaa."
  634. [15:35:02] LOOC - Mila: (Glasya*
  635. [15:35:02] Lotlhuitl sauntered over to Wu Zetian, audibly jingling.
  636. (Lotlhuitl)
  637. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  638.  
  639. [15:35:02] Wu Zetian says, "'Deliver' would be the proper term, Chieftess."
  640. [15:35:53] Kayeliun says, "...not a written letter, then. If it isn't, speak it privately."
  641. [15:36:44] Lotlhuitl says, "... follow me."
  642. [15:36:44] LOOC - Jokor: (welp)
  643. [15:36:44] LOOC - Jokor: (being banned)
  644. [15:36:44] LOOC - Jokor: (cya tomorrw)
  645. [15:36:44] LOOC - Xitlalli: (?)
  646. [15:36:44] She reached out for her uniform, retrieving a small scroll of parchment from the inside. Showing it to Lotlhuitl and making it certain it was definitely not a weapon, she made her way closer to Kayeliun, to actually hand it to her instead.
  647.  
  648. The seal on the scroll was still intact, meaning Zetian haven't read whatever the contents of the message would be.
  649.  
  650. "Chieftess."
  651. (Wu Zetian)
  652. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  653.  
  654. [15:36:44] LOOC - Jokor: Apollo Densin replied: Regardless this is something you should not be doing. I am going to be putting a day ban on you. so you will be able to play again tomorrow)
  655. [15:37:36] LOOC - Glasya Labolas: )What was this for?)
  656. [15:37:36] LOOC - Xitlalli: (Mm.)
  657. [15:37:36] LOOC - Jokor: (some accident with a chest. Clicked the wrong button in spike fest)
  658. [15:38:27] LOOC - Xitlalli: (accident with a chest?)
  659. [15:38:27] LOOC - Jokor: (ill just white test)
  660. [15:38:27] LOOC - Xitlalli: (---)
  661. [15:38:27] LOOC - Xitlalli: (And he's gonezo)
  662. [15:38:27] Wu Zetian says, "We can discuss the matter in private if you deem necessary, if I'm assuming it's contents to be what I think it might be."
  663. [15:38:27] LOOC - Glasya Labolas: (>This kills the Jokor0
  664. [15:38:27] Kayeliun nods absently at Lotl, looking over Wu momentarily before accepting the letter.
  665. (Kayeliun)
  666. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  667.  
  668. [15:39:18] LOOC - Kayeliun: ((i...... well we were probably going to detain him but it... can wait....
  669. [15:39:18] LOOC - Xitlalli: (yeah)
  670. [15:39:18] Glasya gets up from her lounging, stretching her relatively new limbs and moving off.
  671. (Glasya Labolas)
  672. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  673.  
  674. [15:40:09] Xitlalli grunts for a moment, before turning down to the south.
  675. (Xitlalli)
  676. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  677.  
  678. [15:40:09] Kayeliun frowns at the message.
  679. (Kayeliun)
  680. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  681.  
  682. [15:40:09] Xitlalli says, "I think I'm going to go visit Atl, see this captive for myself. See what's going on down there."
  683. [15:40:09] Lotlhuitl frowns at Kayeliun's frown.
  684. (Lotlhuitl)
  685. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  686.  
  687. [15:41:00] Kayeliun says, "...be careful, Xitlalli. Don't draw too much attention."
  688. [15:41:00] Xitlalli says, "Yeah, yeah."
  689. [15:41:00] Lotlhuitl asks, "... will I accompany you, Xitlalli?"
  690. [15:41:00] Lotlhuitl says, "Ah.."
  691. [15:41:00] Zetian stand still on her stern position, with both hands behind her back and a diligent, but tired look on her face as she awaits for any comment or word from the chieftess.
  692. (Wu Zetian)
  693. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  694.  
  695. [15:41:00] Kayeliun says, "Yes, yes."
  696. [15:41:00] Kayeliun says, "Go."
  697. [15:41:00] Kayeliun says, "With her."
  698. [15:41:00] JaDrako Kumo asks, "Whats up Chief why ya frownin?"
  699. [15:42:43] Xitlalli says, "Hmm..."
  700. [15:42:43] Lotlhuitl says, "Hmm, indeed.."
  701. [15:43:34] Lotlhuitl says, "Perhaps that fellow has seen something.."
  702. [15:43:34] LOOC - Tarlac Rovar: ( >
  703. [15:43:34] Lotlhuitl asks, "Perhaps?"
  704. [15:43:34] Xitlalli says, "Not sure."
  705. [15:43:34] Xitlalli asks, "Are you aware of a captive being... Beaten without just cause?"
  706. [15:44:25] Lotlhuitl exclaims, "Oh!"
  707. [15:44:25] Tarlac Rovar asks, "Hmm? First, who are you? And what do you need?"
  708. [15:44:25] Lotlhuitl says, "We are of Cruxati."
  709. [15:45:16] Tarlac Rovar says, "Tsc."
  710. [15:45:16] Xitlalli says, "One of your converts came to us, was causing quite the commotion."
  711. [15:45:16] Lotlhuitl says, "I am Lotlhuitl. This is Xitlalli. "
  712. [15:45:16] Xitlalli says, "Has a facemask, white hair."
  713. [15:45:16] Xitlalli asks, "He sounded Valmasian, perhaps you heard of him?"
  714. [15:45:16] Tarlac Rovar asks, "Oh.. Jokor?"
  715. [15:46:08] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (brb.. gotta coffee it up)
  716. [15:46:08] LOOC - Tarlac Rovar: ( K
  717. [15:47:50] Peering at the man, the dancer suddenly swayed to the left, hand placed upon her hip as it jutted out; one of the many postures she took before committing to the dance. But this was no dance, just simple conversation.
  718.  
  719. "Yes, him, I believe that's the one.", Xitlalli said with a smile, nodding a few times, only to sigh wistfully.
  720.  
  721. "Unfortunately, he has caused quite the dramatic scene in our lands, right next to our temple."
  722.  
  723. "We'd simply like to know more why an outsider was abusing our traditions to. How would I put it, act perverse? Would that be the correct term? Perverse?"
  724.  
  725. The dancer's voice sounded as if she longed for an answer; so she could get to the bottom of all this icky business.
  726. (Xitlalli)
  727. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  728.  
  729. [15:51:15] Walking back to the temple, just curious about what was hapening, and what trouble did this idiot get...
  730.  
  731. Moving to the side of Tarlac, he looked at the two strangers, Nochte was simply calm, hearing what they were saying.
  732.  
  733. Putting one hand on Tarlac shoulder he looked at the other two.
  734.  
  735. "Did you get in trouble... without my permission Tarlac...?"
  736.  
  737. A smile appeared on his face, he was just joking around a little bit, but seeing as they were trying to find someone...
  738.  
  739. "Well, what happened...? What kind of comotion... what did our fellow tribesman did? Perverse can be alot of things..."
  740. (Nochte)
  741. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  742.  
  743. [15:52:06] Tarlac Rovar says, "No problem ... I was just talking to the girls here."
  744. [15:52:06] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (pretypin a thing)
  745. [15:58:04] The dancing scribe's right eyebrow arched, her expression perked as Nochte entered the room. All she could do was offer a short explanation, her left hand gesturing to the east, whilst her right hand remained firmly placed upon her hip.
  746.  
  747. "He was glorifying certain acts and then speaking like that of an outsider.", the way Xitlalli spoke was slow, perhaps calculated in a way; she knew what she wanted to say and she knew exactly what direction she wished for this to go in.
  748.  
  749. "He hasn't conformed to our traditions, he hasn't assimilated properly. He speaks if he is still a Valmasian."
  750.  
  751. A pause there, as she took the time to study Nochte's and Tarlac's expressions.
  752.  
  753. "What I am saying is, he has abused the Atl's kindness and used it's name to... How would I put it? Disgrace the tribe in not only Ezmara but Cruxati too! He spoke of acts which were vile in nature and boasting of it, loudly."
  754.  
  755. A twist of the truth, but it wasn't far from it. That much Xitlalli aimed for, her eyes fluttering a few times, as she maintained a bright, cheery smile.
  756.  
  757. "I would say he was treading on thin ice and has broken through it. It is likely he may be punished for his crimes, to which, we came on the behalf of both Ezmara and Cruxati.", a slight lie.
  758.  
  759. "In order to figure out where exactly this all began and according to Jokor's comments, it begun with that captive he obtained."
  760.  
  761. The dancer leaned back, her eyes studying both men as she awaited their answers; the fact was, Jokor did get himself into trouble but there was much more going on than Xitlalli let out.
  762. (Xitlalli)
  763. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  764.  
  765. [15:59:47] Lotlhuitl faintly jingled as she moved. Precious metals glinted, catching the torchlight. She was wearing a lot of jewellery. Almost more metal than fabric adorned her willowy, tall frame, at this point.
  766.  
  767. The Nagual with the blue-black hair looked.. serious. She stood tall, by Xitlalli's side. Her green eyes slowly scanning Tarlac up and down, before shifting to examine Nochte. Lotlhuitl had a rather.. gloomy, yet appraising gaze. She blinked slowly, letting out a slight snort as Tarlac described herself and Xitlalli as girls.
  768.  
  769. Lotlhuitl considered herself a woman. She assumed Xitlalli did too. There was nothing girlish about Lotlhuitl of the Cruxati. Womanly, sure. But girlish? That had certain connotations. Meekness. Shyness. Being unsure. Lacking confidence.
  770.  
  771. And so she stood, one arm in a sling, the other firmly resting at her hip. Staring at Tarlac and Nochte. Lotlhuitl was fine with letting Xitlalli do the talking. She would observe. Carefully.
  772.  
  773. Lotlhuitl, in particular, examined Tarlac and Notche's expressions as Xitlalli spoke. Looking to see if either of them knew what her dancer companion was speaking about.
  774. (Lotlhuitl)
  775. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  776.  
  777. [16:02:20] Lotlhuitl was not meek, shy, unsure or lacking in any sort of confidence, if that was not clear.
  778. (Lotlhuitl)
  779. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  780.  
  781. [16:02:20] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (i left a line out of my post.. whoops...)
  782. [16:04:54] Nochte snored, just taking a look at them, from up and down as they speak, he scratched his head, sometimes looking back at Tarlac, maybe the boy would know something about what happened.
  783.  
  784. Scratching his chin he looked at them as they finished talking, it was simply...
  785.  
  786. "Too vague, don't you people think?"
  787.  
  788. Crossing his arms, he moved closer to them, looking them in the eyes, he could not really trust everything that was begin said.
  789.  
  790. "Jokor, if he is the one you people are searching for, it maybe must be something wrong in this, he is a brother, he fought with us on the raid, can't really trust everything that you're saying."
  791.  
  792. Again he snored, covering his mouth, he looked back to Tarlac, maybe the boy would have something to say about the case.
  793.  
  794. "But well, I don't know where he is, and I must say, I would like to hear his side... And if what you're saying is indeed the truth... He will receive a punishment."
  795. (Nochte)
  796. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  797.  
  798. [16:06:36] LOOC - Nochte: (jeez fucked up my english in some parts, sorry.
  799. [16:06:36] LOOC - Nochte: (but any help on understanding just say.
  800. [16:07:28] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (its ok. You don't believe what we're saying, right?)
  801. [16:07:28] LOOC - Nochte: (exactly.
  802. [16:07:28] Tarlac would let Nochte talk to the girls. He was not in the mood for a chat. Then turning his back, he went to the chair and sat down.
  803.  
  804. "Nochte ... Talk to them there ... I'll just stay here and listen." He spoke as he settled into his chair
  805. (Tarlac Rovar)
  806. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  807.  
  808. [16:14:17] The dancer glanced over to Tarlac who seemingly was not in the mood for a chat, a shame in her opinion but she wouldn't press the matter. No, if anything it meant she could focus her attention entirely on Nochte who seemed to be defending Jokor; least this is how she took it.
  809.  
  810. "I'll say something from him directly.", Xitlalli spoke, lips curling into a short-lived smirk before speaking once more, "He tugged her on emotions.", a pause was made soon after as she took a step to the side, twisting her body as to look upon both the Atl tribesman and Loithuitl.
  811.  
  812. "He also got agitated after accusations were thrown out at him from other tribes people, he was prepared to attack. And well...", this time however, it seemed as if Xitlalli was telling the truth, Jokor had got angry and he did take a stand.
  813.  
  814. "I...", a flick of her blue eyes there from the floor up to Nochte's face, "Don't need to search for him, since he's already taken by Cruxati and for good reason. He acted most suspicious and was eager to turn to hostilities to another Gehennan.", only for her expression to visibly sour up, her eyes half-lidded.
  815.  
  816. "He's already going to be reprimanded for what he has done in our lands. What we've came here to do so today is discover as to why he was doing what he was and what led him to take drastic action within Cruxati."
  817.  
  818. The dancer kept up the questioning, her hand upon hip posture being swapped around, from left to right as she grew both impatient and bored.
  819. (Xitlalli)
  820. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  821.  
  822. [16:27:05] Unimpressed.
  823.  
  824. Too vague? Lotlhuitl's gaze darkened as Nochte appeared to get defensive, and the other one -- Tarlac -- decided to just go and sit down. The Nagual's tail swished violently, the fluffy appendage thrashing about as her temper threatened to bubble to the surface.
  825.  
  826. Lips parting, Lotlhuitl slooowly began to pace around Nochte, her green eyes sliding from his form to look to Xitalli.
  827.  
  828. "Is this really how the Atl are going to treat us?"
  829.  
  830. She finally spoke. Her voice low. Quiet. Dangerous.
  831.  
  832. Lotlhuitl's pacing (each step accompanied by a subtle, barely audible, metallic jingle, jangle, jingle!) led her back to her companion. The dancer.
  833.  
  834. She didn't speak to Nochte. Nor Tarlac. No, she addressed Xitlalli. The one person here currently not pissing her the fuck off. In truth, Lotlhuitl had previously lacked much of an opinion on Jokor. She was here merely because of Xitlalli.
  835.  
  836. "I think they know something they're not telling us. Why, exactly, they would seek to deny their friends from the Cruxati the information they seek, I cannot say. I thought the Atl were supposed to be honourable."
  837. (Lotlhuitl)
  838. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  839.  
  840. [16:34:46] Looking as Tarlac moved away, he stayed quietly, it could be seem from the other’s that he wasn’t appreciating this attitude, a important matter happening and the boy going away…
  841.  
  842. Snoring again, he covered his mouth as she finished speaking, he stayed quietly, hearing the accusations, he had nothing to do with it if that’s the case.
  843.  
  844. Giving a quick glance at Tarlac, he hoped that he would know something that would be able to help his fellow tribesman, but probably not.
  845.  
  846. “Well, if he is already in your hands, if he really did that, nothing I could do, but I doubt anyone would really know what is in his mind…”
  847.  
  848. Looking at Lotlhuitl, he just tried to look at the creature on the eyes, trying to pass a sense of trust to him, he would not try to lie at this moment.
  849.  
  850. "We are honorable, but well, you people come here, with words alone, and maybe at first not even saying it all? You think I can easily trust anything your people say, at first it was vague, but now I heard enough from this dancing one... And well, I don't have an idea what crossed the mind of Jokor, and if I would know you two would be hearing it now..."
  851.  
  852. (Nochte)
  853. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  854.  
  855. [16:35:37] Xitlalli says, "I see... Well."
  856. [16:35:37] Xitlalli asks, "Do you mind if we inspect the cells quickly?"
  857. [16:35:37] Nochte says, "No problem..."
  858. [16:35:37] Xitlalli says, "Thank you."
  859. [16:35:37] Nochte says, "But I would like to go with you two."
  860. [16:35:37] Xitlalli says, "That's fair."
  861. [16:35:37] Nochte says, "You know, I'm curious anyway."
  862. [16:36:28] Xitlalli says, "Mmm, I suppose we'll be quick."
  863. [16:36:28] Xitlalli says, "Is only for a talk."
  864. [16:37:20] LOOC - Silky: (hello there
  865. [16:37:20] LOOC - Xitlalli: (mm afk so im just gonna enter, pinged him on d/c)
  866. [16:37:20] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (hallo)
  867. [16:38:11] Xitlalli steps into the cell, glancing at the prisoner.
  868. (Xitlalli)
  869. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  870.  
  871. [16:38:11] Xitlalli asks, "Which one is this?"
  872. [16:38:11] Silky is currently just huddled up, mumbling to itself.
  873. (Silky)
  874. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  875.  
  876. [16:38:11] Xitlalli says, "I know plenty of your tribe keeps slaves, but."
  877. [16:38:11] Lotlhuitl enters, jewellery clinking!
  878. (Lotlhuitl)
  879. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  880.  
  881. [16:38:11] Xitlalli says, "Not sure if this is the abused one, that Jokor... Boasted about."
  882. [16:38:11] Nochte says, "It was jokor property."
  883. [16:38:11] Lotlhuitl says, "... it smells poor."
  884. [16:38:11] Nochte says, "But don't touch it..."
  885. [16:39:02] Nochte says, "It's Xomac property..."
  886. [16:39:02] Xitlalli says, "Jokor, I se-"
  887. [16:39:02] Silky exclaims, "A-.. Ah..? H-He!"
  888. [16:39:02] Xitlalli asks, "Huh?"
  889. [16:39:02] Silky points at Nochte, slowly crawling under the bed.
  890. (Silky)
  891. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  892.  
  893. [16:39:02] Xitlalli says, "Was hearing plenty of odd things from Jokor."
  894. [16:39:02] Silky says, "I-I.. Is he.. Here to hurt me..? I-I.. I wanna go home.."
  895. [16:41:36] Hatred.
  896.  
  897. The feeling can be felt echoing through the walls of the Atl prison. Within the Chieftain of the Atl seemed to be focusing his power, his anger, his hatred. Waves of it can be felt sweeping through the hallways, although no physical force is sent out. It seems merely repetitive, merely focused up until the point when voices enter his range.
  898.  
  899. From there? It can be felt. Intensifying as the red haired man moves inwards from the prison, a narrowed silver gaze in anger as he rounds the locked cell door.
  900.  
  901. "Who enters the Atl prisons without my permission?"
  902. (Xomac Tepin)
  903. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  904.  
  905. [16:44:09] LOOC - Silky: (god
  906. [16:44:09] LOOC - Tarlac Rovar: ( Today.. We have more slaves .3.

  912. [16:47:34] The feeling of hatred entering the room, a shiver coming on Nochte spine, he already knew what was it, Xomac.
  913.  
  914. He looked to the others on the room, looking at each of them as Xomac entered, he tried not to bring any problems, or anything.
  915.  
  916. "Those two, came to search for clues about Jokor... who is in prison now, they wanted to go take a look on the dungeons."
  917.  
  918. As he spoke he felt how bad would it end probably, the hatred just growing on the room, scratching his head in sheer worry.
  919.  
  920. "I was escorting them, to secure the well begin of the prisoner, I would not allow anything other than talking with this one. But I don't expect for they to came here and try to speak with this one..."
  921. (Nochte)
  922. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  923.  
  924. [16:48:25] Xitlalli studied the prisoner for a moment or two longer; it was quite clear to her that Nochte had been withholding information, to that end the dancer snarled. First she hears it was 'Jokor's' then 'Xomac's', who was telling the truth here?
  925.  
  926. "I wish you would be more forthcoming with these things.", she utters to Nochte, shaking her head, only to cease up for a moment, as soon as she heard the door swing open.
  927.  
  928. "--Him.", to which a somewhat familiar sensation had been felt; but Zahhual had taught this woman to not be meek or to cower in such a man's presence. To not allow herself to be bullied as it were.
  929.  
  930. "Ah, Xomac.", she'd say, bowing for a moment or two, a small sign of respect before she got onto the main course of dialogue.
  931.  
  932. "As it stands, one of your tribesman, Jokor as it were, a convert has committed to something foul in both Cruxati and Ezmara. As a result, he has been detained for the time being. We were here, investigating as to why he came to Cruxati to cause such commotion, as to seek a resolution; understanding... Reasons."
  933.  
  934. A hand gestured over to Silky; the source of it all.
  935.  
  936. "We lacked understanding ultimately and Jokor did not want to answer our questions and was quite vile, so an effort for inquiry was made.", eyes shift from Xomac over to Tarlac and Nochte, "This one here allowed us permission to enter, the cells as to visit. Nothing more, nothing less.", a hand open palmed, directed towards Notche.
  937.  
  938. "Was not aware of your rulings, Xomac. Is all."
  939. (Xitlalli)
  940. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  941.  
  942. [16:49:16] Lotlhuitl had been sporting a rather unimpressed look on her face. "Is this Jokor's--" she began to say. And then Xomac Tepin entered the gaol cell. The
  943.  
  944. The Nagual with the blue-black hair sported her left arm in a sling, her right resting jauntily (somewhat irritated!) at her hip. Her irritation faded, however, in the face of Xomac Tepin. Subtly, the woman's arm shifted to be by her side. She had been standing towards the back of the cell, but seeing his entrance she moved to stand next to Xitlalli. Each step with a subtle jingle, as the jewellery she wore shifted with her swaying step.
  945.  
  946. "Chieftain Tepin." Lotlhuitl said his name, in lieu of a greeting. "Lotlhuitl and Xitlalli, of the Cruxati." She answered, green eyes briefly looking to the dancer. "Also these.. fellows, whoever they are." Lotlhuitl gestured to Tarlac and Nochte, a slight change in tone indicating that she wanted desperately tocall them something a lot less polite than fellows.
  947.  
  948. "We seek your forgiveness, naturally, Chieftain Tepin. That one-" she gestured to Nochte "-said we could inspect your prisoners."
  949.  
  950. Lotlhuitl smiled.
  951.  
  952. The gloomy woman was not commonly, the sort to smile. But she did now. Wonder why?
  953. (Lotlhuitl)
  954. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  955.  
  956. [16:51:50] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (oops.. somehow.. left a line out of my post.. im clever..)
  957. [16:51:50] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (uh.. dw it wasn't important anyway)
  958. [16:57:48] The silver hues trail over each face, disgust present on his own. "What clues of Jokor would an Atl dungeon reveal?" The Chieftain asked, a raised brow. With that however, there is a dismissive shake of his head. "Non-Atl are not allowed in bulk into the Atl dungeons. They are allowed one by one, only if they receive my permission, or the permission of a Warchief first. I am not having another shitty 'Shield' incident."
  959.  
  960. With that however, his gaze moves from Nochte to the two members of Cruxati, the irate look not leaving his face. "The Occalli Jokor got himself into trouble?" A shrug of his shoulders. "Given one of my own commanders evidently chopped off his arm within the last week, I am not surprised. Those who do not pray to God tend to get into trouble. What exactly did he do?"
  961.  
  962. With that however? His gaze flickers from one woman to the other.
  963.  
  964. "One of you leave this room. I care not which. One on one supervised visits only. I am not going to say it twice."
  965.  
  966. (Xomac Tepin)
  967. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  968.  
  969. [16:57:48] Xitlalli says, "Our business is mostly concluded, Xomac. We simply came for answers and got what we could."
  970. [16:58:40] Tarlac Rovar says, "I'll stay at the door .."
  971. [16:58:40] Xitlalli says, "We were not aware Jokor was being troublesome within Atl."
  972. [16:58:40] Lotlhuitl says, "Very well, Chieftain Tepin."
  973. [16:58:40] Xitlalli says, "If you would like, we could deal with him, if you believe that'd save you stress."
  974. [16:59:31] Xomac Tepin says, "Jokor recently had his arm removed and his slave taken. I know not the full chain of events, but my commander deemed that worthy retribution to whatever he had been commiting at the time."
  975. [16:59:31] Xomac Tepin asks, "What crime did he commit in Cruxati?"
  976. [16:59:31] Xitlalli says, "As for what he did, he was acting like that of a public nuisance, proudly boasting about tugging upon a slave's emotions and insulted our Chieftess."
  977. [17:00:22] Xomac Tepin says, "Tsk."
  978. [17:00:22] Lotlhuitl leaned against the wall, blowing a lock of hair out of her face. Totally listening in.
  979. (Lotlhuitl)
  980. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  981.  
  982. [17:00:22] Tarlac Rovar says, "..."
  983. [17:00:22] Xitlalli lets out a short lived sigh.
  984. (Xitlalli)
  985. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  986.  
  987. [17:00:22] Xomac Tepin says, "Punish him. If he is being insolent and boasting then I care not. Atl warriors are smarter then that."
  988. [17:00:22] LOOC - Tarlac Rovar: ( woah..
  989. [17:00:22] Xitlalli says, "He also spoke as if he was an outsider."
  990. [17:00:22] Xitlalli says, "Which is the main reason why we did what we did."
  991. [17:01:13] Xomac Tepin says, "He is an Occalli. An Atl slave in of himself."
  992. [17:01:13] Xitlalli leans in, inspecting Xomac intently for a moment or two. "I'd say he abused your kindness, Xomac. He abused the privileges that you gave him."
  993. (Xitlalli)
  994. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  995.  
  996. [17:01:13] Lotlhuitl looked to Tarlac.. green eyes sloooowly tracking up and down his body. She smirked.
  997. (Lotlhuitl)
  998. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  999.  
  1000. [17:01:13] Xitlalli says, "He acted that he was not of Gehenna, that he was an outsider."
  1001. [17:02:04] Xitlalli says, "He spoke of being different. Not apart of us."
  1002. [17:04:38] The red haired man flicks at his nails. "Jokor offers no prayer, and is merely an Occalli of Atl. If he decides to get 'uppity' then his punishment is merely well deserved. I care not for those who do not behave, nor for those who do not offer prayer. Cruxati may judge him how they deem fit, so long as he lives.
  1003.  
  1004. After all, I intend to make him very sorrowful for making a hassle for ME."
  1005. (Xomac Tepin)
  1006. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1007.  
  1008. [17:04:38] Tarlac Rovar says, "..."
  1009. [17:04:38] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (D<)
  1010. [17:05:29] LOOC - Tarlac Rovar: ( >:D
  1011. [17:06:20] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: ( a n g e r y)
  1012. [17:08:54] Lotlhuitl says, "So. You come here often? <bored>"
  1013. [17:10:36] Xitlalli dropped her smile for a moment, face turning neutral as she heard something along the lines of perhaps even greater punishment than simply what Cruxati may have had in store for him. No, this was an opportunity within itself for Xitlalli and in turn, a resolution perhaps.
  1014.  
  1015. After all, Xitlalli longed for a day when those below them, could become Gehennan too. That they too could dance and be a long-term sacrifice just as herself; an offering to the Spirits to keep them sated for years to come until her last breathe be it taken in battle or simply of passing old age.
  1016.  
  1017. "As long as he lives?", the dancer marked off, coming out of her 'pause' as it were, her hips sway idly as per instruction of Zahhual to her body; to maintain a dance, to serve the Spirits through any activity.
  1018.  
  1019. "Would you like me to bring him to you, Xomac?", Xitlalli said, smiling once more, as if trying to capture Xomac's not so much asrespect but attention; she'd be doing him a favour ultimately, saving him time and effort.
  1020. (Xitlalli)
  1021. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1022.  
  1023. [17:12:19] While he was standing outside the cell, Tarlac stared at the young woman next to him. He looked at her face .. Her eyes .. Until this young lady asked a question .. Kind of strange .. But even so Tarlac replied .
  1024.  
  1025. "Huh? No ...?" He stared at the girl.
  1026.  
  1027. Crossing his arms, the boy leaned against the wall and spoke.
  1028.  
  1029. "So .. What do you do most of the time?" I tried to pull the conversation with the girl.
  1030. (Tarlac Rovar)
  1031. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1032.  
  1033. [17:15:44] There was a grave apathy in Xomac's hues. "He fought like a warrior, but warriors do not get big heads. Warriors do not cause trouble for Atl. Warriors fight for my name, and not to be an annoyance in my side. You and Tarlac are warriors, Nochte. Jokor is not."
  1034.  
  1035. With that? His gaze looks towards Xitalli. "Yes. So long as Jokor lives, so that I might administer the wrath of God to him as he deserves, then Cruxati can give any punishment to him. If you wish to bring him, that is fine as well.
  1036.  
  1037. He will learn not to waste my time. And if there is another incident like this where he gets a big head and draws my ire?
  1038.  
  1039. Spirits always need more sacrifice."
  1040. (Xomac Tepin)
  1041. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1042.  
  1043. [17:17:26] Xitlalli says, "Spirits, yes. I dance for them, could consider it as a Sacrifice in a way. I sacrifice my motions into dance, to appease them."
  1044. [17:18:17] Xitlalli says, "Zahhual has taught me well enough."
  1045. [17:20:51] Lotlhuitl apparently could add listener at doors to the list of things she did. Still, though. Even though it was perhaps a little impolite, she was morbidly curious about what was happening in the cell. What conversation was being had. And while it had been no question that Xitlalli should be the one to talk to Xomac (at least in her book), to abandon the woman here would completely negate Lotlhuitl's reasons for coming to Atl in the first place.
  1046.  
  1047. Though, to be honest, if Xomac Tepin decided to take hostile action against them, Lotlhuitl was not so certain she would be much use.
  1048.  
  1049. Bemused, the Nagual with the blue-black hair had turned her delicate face towards Tarlac. "What do I do most of the time?" It was an interesting question. That was the only reason it got any response from her. "Get into trouble," she replied. It was hard to tell what she meant by that. If it was a thing she was proud of, even. Her expression was deadly serious, shoulder pressed into the wall as she curled a finger in her long, silken, blue-black hair. "Serving Cruxati, at least part of the time."
  1050.  
  1051. A small smile, a glimmer of pale, perfect, pointed teeth showing. Not an unfriendly expression. Well, not exactly unfriendly. The woman did not usually smile. And so, whether one interpreted the expression as spooky or an attempt at friendliness really depended on, well. Them.
  1052.  
  1053. "You serve Xomac long?"
  1054. (Lotlhuitl)
  1055. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1056.  
  1057. [17:24:16] It was oft said, good intentions paves the way to hell, and this was one of those moments; Xitlalli meant well, but it was likely she'd be damning Jokor to something most foul soon enough, the wrath of a 'God' given to the convert that had made a minor mistake.
  1058.  
  1059. Not had he drawn Xomac's ire, but Xitlalli's too; for Jokor had caused trouble for Atl which was Xomac's gripe. But for Xitlalli it was a matter of principles, in her mind, slaves and outsiders were to be broken down and molded into Gehennans, as to fit in, as to join them.
  1060.  
  1061. "Yes, yes, quite. I will deal with this. It will be... Fulfilling in a way, I can say.", a smile tugged itself onto her mocha skinned face, blue eyes glinting with the promise of not so much as reward, but attention from her actions; an extension to her goals.
  1062.  
  1063. "He will live. By the Spirits, I do not wish to take away what is yours."
  1064.  
  1065. Legs slightly shuffled, footing light as she aimed to ready herself to leave the cell with dance in mind.
  1066.  
  1067. "Spirits are getting restless, I should dance. Do not worry Xomac, all will be fine."
  1068.  
  1069. A glance over her shoulder was given to Silky, a brief smirk made; this wasn't for the Selkie, but it would benefit them in the end, they'd see Jokor punished, Xomac carrying out that punishment and Xitlalli garnering amusement from it all.
  1070. (Xitlalli)
  1071. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1072.  
  1073. [17:25:58] LOOC - Tarlac Rovar: ( Sorry, I write in a notepad and then I send in the RP
  1074. [17:27:40] "Yes, I have served Xomac for a long time, and it was the best thing that occurred to me, I met many ally here in Atl and it was through me serving Xomac that I decided what I would do with my life." He smiled at the young woman.
  1075.  
  1076. Coming closer to the girl, Tarlac studied her body completely. She was a pretty young woman ... And Tarlac smiled sideways at that.
  1077.  
  1078. "Hey girl .. Have you ever dated anyone?" He rubbed his head lightly.
  1079. (Tarlac Rovar)
  1080. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1081.  
  1082. [17:27:40] LOOC - Tarlac Rovar: ( xD
  1083. [17:28:32] Little can be read from Xomac's facial features, the occasional snarl or annoyed look crossing it due to the present situation, but it appeared that they weren't here to take from him. In fact, there is little reason in his mind as to why they were here.
  1084.  
  1085. "Bring him back alive." Xomac states one more time as a yawn breathes past his lips. "And if the spirits are getting restless you should both head back to Cruxati and dance for them. This has all been concluded by the sound of it.
  1086.  
  1087. Silky. Follow. It is time for your walk."
  1088. (Xomac Tepin)
  1089. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1090.  
  1091. [17:29:23] Xitlalli says, "Yes, Xomac, thank you for your time."
  1092. [17:29:23] Xomac Tepin says, "-merely nods then looks to Silky-"
  1093. [17:29:23] Xitlalli makes a short bow before staggering out, her movements becoming flowy and oddly precise; a dance it were.

  1106. [17:37:04] Lotlhuitl hadn't moved as Tarlac shifted closer, though, notably, at his words the woman stiffened.
  1107.  
  1108. "One. I am no girl." She stated, firmly, her eyes (green, and predatory and feline!) locking onto Tarlac's. The woman was tall. At six feet in height, she was taller than many men. Willowy, but there was a certain stubborn strength to her.
  1109.  
  1110. She was like a blade. Sharp, and deadly. Well made. Beautiful, but if you tried to grab hold of the wrong part, you'd find your hands sliced open.
  1111.  
  1112. Footsteps. Xomac and Xitlalli and the prisoner and Nochte emerged just in time to see the exchange between Tarlac and Lotlhuitl turn... incredibly awkward.
  1113.  
  1114. "Two. No, Never. Why." Cold. Her voice was cold, though her expression was strangely forcibly innocent. Like she thought she knew why Tarlac had just asked her if she'd ever dated anyone. But.. she wanted to hear it from his mouth, himself.

  1118. [17:37:04] Xitlalli says, "Lotlhuitl, we are finished here."
  1119. [17:37:55] Xitlalli says, "My legs grow as restless as the Spirits."
  1120. [17:37:55] Xitlalli says, "We are to leave."
  1121. [17:37:55] Lotlhuitl says, "... very well."

  1125. [17:39:37] Xitlalli says, "And we're back."
  1126. [17:39:37] Lotlhuitl says, "It seemed your meeting with Xomac went well. "
  1127. [17:39:37] Lotlhuitl says, "You have a way with words, Xitlalli."
  1128. [17:40:28] Xitlalli says, "Mhm. I simply need to drag Jokor towards him and the rest will be dealt with."
  1129. [17:40:28] Xitlalli says, "Seems he's now very angry with the Valmasian."
  1130. [17:40:28] Xoconan says, "Imagine that, Xoamc angry with someone."

  1146. [17:46:27] Xoconan says, "Aaand no Cylion, and I'm not dragging you all the way to MapleGrave."
  1147. [17:46:27] Xoconan says, "Sooooo."

  1152. [17:47:18] Lotlhuitl joined him! Lotlhuitl dropped down next to him.
  1153. (Lotlhuitl)
  1154. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1155.  
  1156. [17:47:18] Lotlhuitl says, "The Atl are.. out of control."
  1157. [17:47:18] Xoconan is still a her.
  1158. (Xoconan)
  1159. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1160.  
  1161. [17:47:18] Lotlhuitl joined her!
  1162. (Lotlhuitl)
  1163. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1164.  
  1165. [17:47:18] Xoconan says, "Yes, they are. Xomac's going to die in the next couple of days."
  1166. [17:47:18] Lotlhuitl says, "I see."
  1167. [17:47:18] Xoconan says, "By Jianghu, by me, by whoever."
  1168. [17:47:18] Xoconan says, "He will not see the end of the week."
  1169. [17:48:09] Lotlhuitl brushed her hair behind her shoulders, looking thoughtful.
  1170. (Lotlhuitl)
  1171. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1172.  
  1173. [17:48:09] Lotlhuitl says, "What will happen to Atl without him, I wonder."
  1174. [17:48:09] Xoconan says, "Hopefully nothing good."
  1175. [17:48:09] Lotlhuitl says, "There appears to be little leadership in the city. "
  1176. [17:49:00] Lotlhuitl asks, "You wish to see it burnt?"
  1177. [17:49:00] Xoconan says, "That's the problem. They're a band of bloodthirsty savages and idiots."
  1178. [17:49:00] Lotlhuitl says, "Mmm.."
  1179. [17:49:00] Lotlhuitl says, "Drooling idiots."
  1180. [17:49:00] Xoconan says, "On one hand, you have those like Malachai, who are the most useless examples of people to be given magical abilities that I've ever seen."
  1181. [17:49:00] Lotlhuitl says, "I believe one tried to ask me out on a date while I was there with Xitlalli. "
  1182. [17:49:52] Xoconan says, "On the other, Mercuria, a dumb Drakanite girl that defected to Tragedy and gave her a staff forged with a spire shard."
  1183. [17:49:52] Xoconan says, "Then came back."
  1184. [17:49:52] Lotlhuitl says, "..."
  1185. [17:49:52] Lotlhuitl says, "Every occasion I've been there, there has been something idiotic happening. "
  1186. [17:49:52] Xoconan says, "No, if that's what Atl is made of, then Atl needs to be burnt."
  1187. [17:50:43] Xoconan says, "Absorbed into Ezmara and Cruxati."
  1188. [17:50:43] Xoconan says, "And to hell with anyone that argues."
  1189. [17:50:43] Lotlhuitl says, "Pruned, is perhaps a better word for what needs to happen."
  1190. [17:50:43] Xoconan says, "Let them choose exile or death."
  1191. [17:50:43] Lotlhuitl says, "If Gehenna is a plant, Atl is.. well. It was perhaps once useful, when we were at war. "
  1192. [17:50:43] Lotlhuitl says, "Perhaps."
  1193. [17:51:34] Xoconan says, "No, not even then."
  1194. [17:51:34] Lotlhuitl says, "Hah. Well, fine. I was trying to be charitable."
  1195. [17:51:34] Xoconan says, "Their numbers pale compared to Cruxati and equal Ezmara."
  1196. [17:51:34] Xoconan says, "Their magi are nothing compared to the rest as well."
  1197. [17:51:34] Xoconan says, "Xomac himself was once Cruxati, they had to give the Atl a chieftain from a different tribe to cover up how useless they were."
  1198. [17:53:16] Lotlhuitl looked bemused, before reaching into her bag... and producing both a knife.. and a peach!
  1199. (Lotlhuitl)
  1200. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1201.  
  1202. [17:53:16] Lotlhuitl asks, "Would you like some, Xoconan?"
  1203. [17:53:16] Xoconan says, "Sure."
  1204. [17:54:08] Boar: Grrr!
  1205. [17:54:59] Lotlhuitl proceeded to peel the peach, sticky sweet juices running down her arm. She offered the fruit, fuzzy skin removed, to Xoconan.
  1206. (Lotlhuitl)
  1207. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1208.  
  1209. [17:55:50] Xoconan reaches out to take the offered fruit, taking a large bite of it!
  1210. (Xoconan)
  1211. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1212.  
  1213. [17:55:50] Xoconan says, "I wonder what you told whoever asked you on a date..."
  1214. [17:56:41] Lotlhuitl says, "Oh, they didn't ask me on a date."
  1215. [17:56:41] Lotlhuitl says, "They said, "hey girl, you ever been on a date?""
  1216. [17:56:41] Lotlhuitl says, "Or... perhaps they said, "hey girl, you ever been with someone?" "
  1217. [17:56:41] Lotlhuitl says, "I can't exactly recall. It was inane. "
  1218. [17:57:32] Lotlhuitl says, "I told them that I wasn't a girl, and I answered their question. Asked them why they were asking me, but Xitlalli made me leave. Probably for the best. I was beginning to get ideas."
  1219. [17:59:15] Xoconan asks, "Ideas, huh?"
  1220. [18:00:06] Xoconan says, "Sometimes I wonder what kind of ideas you get about me."
  1221. [18:00:06] Lotlhuitl smiled, licking her fingers.
  1222. (Lotlhuitl)
  1223. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1224.  
  1225. [18:00:57] Lotlhuitl says, "I do spend vastly less time wondering about how you'd look, impaled on my dagger, compared to other people."
  1226. [18:00:57] Lotlhuitl says, "<haha lighthearted comedy!>"
  1227. [18:02:40] Xoconan says, "Mm, I'm glad for that."
  1228. [18:02:40] LOOC - Xoconan: (night falls)
  1229. [18:02:40] LOOC - Xoconan: (spoopy)
  1230. [18:02:40] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (so spoopy..)
  1231. [18:02:40] Xoconan brings her cloak around herself.
  1232. (Xoconan)
  1233. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1234.  
  1235. [18:03:31] Xoconan says, "You know, putting aside all the benefits of being able to conjure fire with my mind..."
  1236. [18:04:22] Xoconan says, "It's really nice to not need to be afraid of the dakr."
  1237. [18:04:22] LOOC - Xoconan: (dark fuck)
  1238. [18:04:22] Lotlhuitl raised an eyebrow, leaning back on her good arm.
  1239. (Lotlhuitl)
  1240. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1241.  
  1242. [18:04:22] Lotlhuitl asks, "Oh?"
  1243. [18:04:22] Lotlhuitl started forward, raising her hands up suddenly!
  1244. (Lotlhuitl)
  1245. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1246.  
  1247. [18:04:22] Lotlhuitl exclaims, "Boo!"
  1248. [18:04:22] Xoconan blinks.
  1249. (Xoconan)
  1250. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1251.  
  1252. [18:05:13] Xoconan says, "I'd laugh but you might feel bad..."
  1253. [18:05:13] Lotlhuitl laughed.
  1254. (Lotlhuitl)
  1255. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1256.  
  1257. [18:06:04] Lotlhuitl says, "You reckon you might be able to summon some of that fire, hm, Xoconan? I didn't realise we were going to stay out all night. *I* didn't bring a cloak."
  1258. [18:06:04] Xoconan says, "Dunno, firewood is damp thanks to the swamp."
  1259. [18:06:56] Lotlhuitl snorted, not quite believing this excuse.
  1260. (Lotlhuitl)
  1261. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1262.  
  1263. [18:06:56] Xoconan says, "And it's annoying channeling mana constantly."
  1264. [18:06:56] Xoconan says, "Here, let's just do this."
  1265. [18:06:56] Lotlhuitl says, "Sure.. I see. This isn't at all you going, 'come here, Lotlhuitl, share my cloak.'."
  1266. [18:07:47] Lotlhuitl says, "Aha. I knew it."
  1267. [18:07:47] Lotlhuitl says, "I knew it! <laughs>"
  1268. [18:07:47] Xoconan unclasps her cloak, standing up to thoroughly... Toss it at Lotlhuitl.
  1269. (Xoconan)
  1270. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1271.  
  1272. [18:07:47] {Item} You picked up Fur Cape.Dropped by Xoconan. .
  1273. [18:08:38] Lotlhuitl blinks, fur cape falling over her head.
  1274. (Lotlhuitl)
  1275. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1276.  
  1277. [18:08:38] Lotlhuitl says, "Huh."
  1278. [18:08:38] Lotlhuitl asks, "... but aren't you cold?"
  1279. [18:08:38] Lotlhuitl adjusts cape.
  1280. (Lotlhuitl)
  1281. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1282.  
  1283. [18:08:38] LOOC - Xoconan: (re-equip clothes)
  1284. [18:08:38] LOOC - Xoconan: (It'll fix clipping)
  1285. [18:09:29] LOOC - Xoconan: (like your pants, re-equip those)
  1286. [18:09:29] Xoconan asks, "Mm, are you worried?"
  1287. [18:09:29] Lotlhuitl says, "... perhaps."
  1288. [18:10:20] Lotlhuitl says, "Come here, Xoconan. Share your cloak. "
  1289. [18:10:20] Lotlhuitl says, "... what. I'm eminently practical."
  1290. [18:10:20] Xoconan says, "Mmm, sure."
  1291. [18:11:12] Xoconan says, "Lay down first then, unless we're gonna huddle standing."
  1292. [18:12:03] Lotlhuitl lay down, patting the ground next to her.
  1293. (Lotlhuitl)
  1294. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1295.  
  1296. [18:12:03] Lotlhuitl says, "I mean. I suppose we could go back to Cruxati.."
  1297. [18:12:03] Xoconan says, "Don't feel like it."
  1298. [18:12:54] Xoconan slides onto the offered spot, laying against Lotlhuitl.
  1299. (Xoconan)
  1300. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1301.  
  1302. [18:12:54] Lotlhuitl asks, "No?"
  1303. [18:12:54] Lotlhuitl wrapped Xoconan's cloak around them both.
  1304. (Lotlhuitl)
  1305. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1306.  
  1307. [18:13:45] Lotlhuitl asks, "Is something wrong, Xoconan?"
  1308. [18:15:28] Xoconan says, "Just..."
  1309. [18:15:28] Xoconan leans a bit closer against Lotlhuitl with a sigh.
  1310. (Xoconan)
  1311. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1312.  
  1313. [18:15:28] Xoconan says, "Lots and lots of stress."
  1314. [18:15:28] Xoconan says, "It's not simple to plan the death of the most powerful person in Gehenna.":"
  1315. [18:16:19] * You have been awarded 1.5 Roleplay Points! *
  1316. [18:16:19] Your combat experience has grown! (1 BL Gained)
  1317. [18:17:10] Lotlhuitl listened. The Nagual didn't seem to tense as Xoconan leant back against her. She did, however, hesitate very briefly before wrapping her arms around Xoconan and drawing her closer.
  1318. (Lotlhuitl)
  1319. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1320.  
  1321. [18:17:10] Lotlhuitl says, "I see."
  1322. [18:18:01] Xoconan says, "Mm... Feels weird being on the other side of this..."
  1323. [18:18:52] Lotlhuitl says, "... I.. wouldn't know."
  1324. [18:19:44] Xoconan asks, "What'dya mean? You were like this in my bed, remember?"
  1325. [18:19:44] Lotlhuitl says, "..."
  1326. [18:20:35] Xoconan says, "Difference is, you were on top of me."
  1327. [18:20:35] Lotlhuitl muttered something about gravity magic being cheap.
  1328. (Lotlhuitl)
  1329. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1330.  
  1331. [18:22:17] Xoconan says, "Mm, can't wait to go back to being a guy."
  1332. [18:22:17] Lotlhuitl asks, "... why do you let Maiya experiment on you, Xoconan?"
  1333. [18:22:17] Xoconan says, "No one cared if I wore a shirt then. Within seconds of Maiya turning me into a girl, she put this on me."
  1334. [18:22:17] Xoconan says, "And... I kinda didn't."
  1335. [18:22:17] Xoconan says, "She just poked me with a needle outta nowhere."
  1336. [18:22:17] Lotlhuitl says, "Oh."
  1337. [18:23:08] Lotlhuitl says, "That's.. that's alarming."
  1338. [18:23:08] Xoconan says, "I mean, she's an incredibly skilled alchemist. I doubt she'd test something she that she had no clue about the effects of on me."
  1339. [18:23:08] Xoconan says, "She knew exactly what she was doing..."
  1340. [18:24:00] Lotlhuitl squirmed awkwardly, leaning her head against Xoconan's..
  1341. (Lotlhuitl)
  1342. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1343.  
  1344. [18:24:00] Lotlhuitl says, "Yeah.. I guess. That much is obvious."
  1345. [18:24:00] Xoconan says, "It's been interesting, but I'll be happy to be a guy again, shirtless and muscled and just..."
  1346. [18:24:00] Xoconan says, "Well, not this."
  1347. [18:24:51] Lotlhuitl asks, "This?"
  1348. [18:24:51] Xoconan exclaims, "All the stuff you've gotta deal with as a girl!"
  1349. [18:24:51] Xoconan says, "I'm lucky I'm infertile like this, I'd be horrified if my body made me go through the uh, cycles."
  1350. [18:25:42] Lotlhuitl says, "Hm."
  1351. [18:25:42] Lotlhuitl says, "Being a woman isn't all bad. "
  1352. [18:27:24] Lotlhuitl says, "I mean. I pity -some- men. Going through life, compelled by their dick."
  1353. [18:27:24] LOOC - Xoconan: (fuck)
  1354. [18:27:24] LOOC - Xoconan: (we're gonna need to come back to this later)

  1366. [18:29:07] LOOC - Xoconan: (this isn't like danarium tower raid)
  1367. [18:29:58] Xoconan exclaims, "Hey, in my defense... Just as many women go compelled by their own stuff!"
  1368. [18:29:58] Xoconan says, "Trust me, I've *wanted* to test this body out."
  1369. [18:30:49] LOOC - Magnolia : whats going on?)
  1370. [18:30:49] Cocinar sees that everyone has gathered, and sat quietly watches for a moment
  1371. (Cocinar)

  1373.  
  1374. [18:30:49] LOOC - Hatsune Panic: ((This is probably the only chance for this skill to ever have a use.))

  1392. [18:31:40] Xoconan says, "He won't escape with these anti-flee rituals in place."
  1393. [18:31:40] Malgannan asks, "...? Why is everyone here?"
  1394. [18:31:40] Cocinar says, "Facinating. Something in the air... is very much dense."
  1395. [18:31:40] Citlalli whispers something.
  1396. [18:31:40] Madam Tennant says, "never met em."
  1397. [18:31:40] Citlalli whispers something.
  1398. [18:32:32] Olander blinks thrice, his gaze falling only briefly upon Kayeliun. He nods, content with Citlalli's response.
  1399. (Olander)

  1525. [18:44:28] LOOC - Malgannan: [look at all these noob fairies
  1526. [18:44:28] Imra'el asks, "So, a brother in soul?"

  1528. [18:44:28] LOOC - Malgannan: [gaY!!!
  1529. [18:44:28] Sul'Koth asks, "...? Talking to me?"

  1534. [18:45:20] {NARRATION} The world seems to shudder. Your vision shakes as though your eyes are vibrating. Something passes through your mind's eye and affects the world around it. Voices start up before fading, the colour seems to drain from the world, the vibrancies of life seeming to go mute. Sounds dull and the air feels as though it had died. A shiver begins to run down your spine and a cold sensation claims your hands and feet.
  1535.  
  1536. The world around you feels like it has died. A sensation that ripples out from the centre of the square. The closer to the source, the less lively the world feels. There is a disturbance in the air. A shimmering rectangle as though this world was merely a reflection in a pond that someone had dropped a stone into. It seemed to bleed mana, pure blue energy that soon dissipated.
  1537.  
  1538. There was a sickening feeling permeating through the air, a deep miasma and it began to spread.
  1539. [18:45:20] LOOC - Malgannan: [change my age to 120 then idc
  1540. [18:45:20] LOOC - Malgannan: [i've never said my age icly
  1541. [18:46:11] LOOC - Esperite: (malgannan stands for fucklord in arabic)
  1542. [18:46:11] Nyrra says, "Actual brother."
  1543. [18:46:11] LOOC - Malgannan: [nice
  1544. [18:46:11] LOOC - Malgannan: [i like that
  1545. [18:46:11] LOOC - Magnolia : rofl)
  1546. [18:46:11] Imra'el asks, "Interesting. I wasn't aware you had one. Is he Atl, too?"
  1547. [18:46:11] As the air began to become hazy, he felt an ominous feeling around him. He prepared his hands to cook whatever may arrive... if needed.
  1548. (Cocinar)
  1549. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1550.  
  1551. [18:47:02] Nyrra says, "We're Ezmarran... originally."
  1552. [18:47:02] LOOC - Sul'Koth: ( Everyone starting rp'ing, I feel like I missed something)
  1553. [18:47:02] Malgannan simply stares in front of him, only slightly bothered by the sickening feeling.. The strange air. To him, this was something that would likely lead to combat. That was more interesting than whatever this strange sensation was. He draws his halberd and grips it tightly, revealing his teeth. A faint growl...
  1554. (Malgannan)
  1555. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1556.  
  1557. [18:47:02] LOOC - Chitli: (there was a narrate)
  1558. [18:47:53] LOOC - Sul'Koth: (missed it, out of range)
  1559. [18:47:53] LOOC - Cocinar: ("If you missed the narration, it's not my fault")
  1560. [18:47:53] Imra'el asks, "Oh... you're Ezmara, then?"
  1561. [18:47:53] LOOC - Rothraim: [anyone have the narration?
  1562. [18:47:53] LOOC - Glasya Labolas: (GOD DAMN I DIDN"T SEE IT)
  1563. [18:47:53] LOOC - Nyrra: (me either!)
  1564. [18:47:53] LOOC - Cocinar: ("If you missed the narration, it's not my fault")
  1565. [18:47:53] A quake of psychic emptiness washes-over Kaschei's mind... his hands go limp, releasing his book before he gazes about with an eerie sense of wrongness.
  1566.  
  1567. A false chorus of unreal voices troubles his mind. Before they can speak a word- they dissipate into a somehow worse silence, the color of the flowers and the warmth of the air bleeding-away into a disquiet nothingness.
  1568.  
  1569. Poisonous tranquility fills the air, before he sees it: a shimmering rectangle in the air, pouring-out the miasma of melancholia he felt... he stands, takes a step nearer and stares in perplexion at the anomaly.
  1570. (Kaschei)
  1571. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1572.  
  1573. [18:47:53] On their way to Cruxati, Imra'el thought of his whole day.
  1574.  
  1575. He'd certainly have to talk to Nyrra over her bet with Glasya;
  1576. He'd have to watch for the demon's move on him as well;
  1577. And he'd have to talk to Inkka on fortification of her house. Not too much room for keeping the guard down, now. Hadn't the demon and Imra'el been there, the boy would easily tear Inkka apart.
  1578. (Imra'el)
  1579. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1580.  
  1581. [18:47:53] LOOC - Noxim Florus: (Okay, so this is going to be an absolute clusterfuck with how many people are present, so. I'm going to keep my rps short and to the point.)
  1582. [18:48:44] LOOC - Malgannan: [same lol
  1583. [18:48:44] Nyrra says, "Technically, I'm still on the fence."
  1584. [18:48:44] Irrelevant and useless, thought of anxiety and ultimate despair run through the man. Never had he felt such overwhelming dread and horror.
  1585.  
  1586. Yet he grits his teeth. The entire crowd gathered here must be feeling the same he thought. This was a trial, a test that he must overcome. Zoromon would not succumb to something that seemed more like a cheap trick than anything.
  1587. (Zoromon)
  1588. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1589.  
  1590. [18:48:44] LOOC - Hue Coliqui: (Sul check disc
  1591. [18:48:44] Hatsune was against a stone wall with her head drooped down and her eyes closed. She'd been like that for quite some time after coming to rest in the Cruxati square, and very little had stirred her.
  1592.  
  1593. At least, very little stirred her until the world began to tear apart at the seams, and the source of the disturbance was right above. Eyes shot open, her head shot up, and she stared at the new problem. Her face was a mask of exotic features, and no emotions showed there through that obfuscating musculature.
  1594. (Hatsune Panic)
  1595. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1596.  
  1597. [18:48:44] As he moved away from the group and reached Cruxati he realized that the movement was bigger than normal, and then suddenly he felt what might be the worst sensation of his life.
  1598.  
  1599. Atla put her hands on her head while she was still dizzy, the feeling, the feelings, all that was horrible but he tried to compose himself somehow as he tried to figure out what was going on.
  1600.  
  1601. Even Renata was able to feel that horror through Atla, and that also startled her.
  1602. (Atla-Cuauhtli)
  1603. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1604.  
  1605. [18:48:44] Magnolia would be floating idly by when the strange phenomenon began. She suddenly began to feel quite odd, similar to when she went into the rift that lead them to fight that strange entity. Summoning her mana, Magnolia would keep her distance, keeping her gaze upon the happenings.
  1606.  
  1607. As she floated, observing, she would look around to notice that there was a huge gathering of magi, and she assumed that nothing good could come from the scene.
  1608. (Magnolia )
  1609. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1610.  
  1611. [18:48:44] A strange thing happening, a wrong decision to move to Cruxati after the talk close to the beach, it was plainly strange, he just looked at it, fixated.
  1612.  
  1613. Trying to prepare to defend himself if anything would happen, he covered his body with occult flame, looking at the others around, with the injury he got, it was hard to maintain the aura, it would demand some stamina from him.
  1614. (Nochte)
  1615. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1616.  
  1617. [18:48:44] Imra'el says, "I see. I trust it you'll do the best choice. If there's anything you'd like to discuss... I'll be here, sister."
  1618. [18:48:44] Anaxes was among the many in the Cruxati square this day. Perhaps it had been drawn by whatever energy, creature or abomination was dwelling within, but whatever the case, it was among the outskirts, peering towards the center.
  1619.  
  1620. Something was very, very wrong here. The color drained, voices faded and it felt as though the world itself had died around the Kaor.
  1621.  
  1622. The Demon steadied itself as miasma began to spread, getting ready for whatever was coming. Some of this was eerily familiar, but they'd soon find out what it was that was causing this.
  1623. (Anaxes)
  1624. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1625.  
  1626. [18:49:36] Nyrra says, "T-Thank you..."
  1627. [18:49:36] Toka raised a hand to her head, things seemed to just feel. Off. A shiver ran down her spine, her hands and feet beginning to grow even colder than usual. Along with everything beginning to just...go silent. Become dull, essentially everything became...wrong.
  1628.  
  1629. She would kind of actually hide behind Kaschei, feeling it much safer to do that at the moment. As the miasma that spread worried her greatly.
  1630. (Toka)
  1631. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1632.  
  1633. [18:50:27] Esperite fluttered forward led by both Shan and Paprika alike, not entirely sure what was going on but... well, more than willing to follow along with it provided they weren't being led to their do-
  1634.  
  1635. Oh.
  1636.  
  1637. Oh no.
  1638.  
  1639. Whatever this was, it certainly wasn't not their doom. Or at least it definitely seemed that way. When approaching, the stench of the Occult triggered an instinctive reply in the fae's figure, and within an instant, an aura of holywater sprouted up around him.
  1640.  
  1641. A shield, made for the sake of not being obliterated by some stray bolt of energy or something akin.
  1642.  
  1643. He stuck near to his initial triplet, managing a position beside Paprika and Shan that spoke of someone ready to do battle if necessary. Gehenna wasn't his place to defend, but-
  1644.  
  1645. Well, obviously, this thing didn't seem like much of a benefit to the world at large either.
  1646.  
  1647. "What the hell is this?" he proclaimed."Do you know, Paprika? Shan?"
  1648. (Esperite)
  1649. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1650.  
  1651. [18:50:27] Kayeliun was already unhappy.
  1652.  
  1653. The shift of the world around them was somthing she only vaguely registered at first, a dulling of the senses that felt almost like what Atro looked like lately. Whatever it was in the middle of her square, Kayeliun took offense to it.
  1654.  
  1655. Taking a slight step forward, her amethyst eyes scanned the area around them with an irritable scowl.
  1656.  
  1657. "...show yourself. These lands are mine, and you will show respect. I don't care what you are," her voice echoed around them with the power of her control over sound, serious and powerful.
  1658.  
  1659. Whatever it was... it was annoying her.
  1660. (Kayeliun)
  1661. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1662.  
  1663. [18:50:27] The uproar in the square drew her in. Something was wrong here. She clutched Nyrra closer to her chest. She was still quite weak.
  1664.  
  1665. "Brace yourself, child."
  1666. (Glasya Labolas)
  1667. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1668.  
  1669. [18:50:27] Okay what the fuck JaDrako didn't sign up for this but boy was he excited the trap began to grin something fun was going to happen and he was more than ready for it.
  1670.  
  1671. He looked around and everyone seemed to be united, whatever came for gehenna was not smart at all the best of the best were here and things are about get hectic at any moment
  1672.  
  1673. "I don't know what the hell is going on but lets make sure we don't get hurt lt."
  1674. (JaDrako Kumo)
  1675. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1676.  
  1677. [18:50:27] A... Frown crossed the feminized Xoconan, hands clenching as strange feeling swept through her. What... What was this? Magic flourished into life around her, violet sparks blossoming, the young woman kicking off the ground to float in a spectacular fashion, but...
  1678.  
  1679. The effect felt wrong. Muted. She felt the power, but not the vigor, the passion.
  1680.  
  1681. What in the hell was this? She stepped up beside Kayeliun, Telaman coming to her hands, blooming with power. "Who's playing games with Gehenna again?"
  1682. (Xoconan)
  1683. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1684.  
  1685. [18:50:27] A brief sensation of nausea swelled within the demon's gut as he approached the Cruxati plaza, one of the numerous beasts whom had returned to the village, just in time to feel the sudden change in the atmosphere, the overall sensation that something was wrong.
  1686.  
  1687. Wordlessly, the beast's gaze turned towards the momentary signature of mana in the midst of the plaza, a mere blip that vanished as soon as it had appeared.
  1688.  
  1689. "What?"
  1690. (Noxim Florus)
  1691. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1692.  
  1693. [18:51:18] It feels like a punch in the gut.
  1694.  
  1695. The young Citlalli, affected by the sudden wave of whatever this was, felt as though he'd died if only for a moment-- the waves of sickening plague, or whatever it truly was, made him feel quite uneasy.
  1696.  
  1697. A hand is on his stomach, briefly; what was going on? For now, the teen stands still, prepared to grab at his staff.
  1698.  
  1699. Then, in a low whisper, he hands an object to his slave.
  1700. (Citlalli)
  1701. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1702.  
  1703. [18:51:18] Agitated by staying in one place, Atro moved out, heading towards the Cruxati square yet keeping distance.
  1704.  
  1705. Watching the growing crowd with distant dull blue eyes that portrayed a similar sense to the one given; a dull world gray and dead.
  1706.  
  1707. He's vulnerable to it, feeling his vision distort and darkness seeping through an image. While similar, not the same; but... boarder?
  1708.  
  1709. He keeps distance, as distant as his eyes seemed.
  1710. (Atro Gwyn)
  1711. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1712.  
  1713. [18:51:18] Hototo appears to look troubled as psychic forces invade his mind, filling his head with terrible visions, the color practically draining from his face.
  1714.  
  1715. Hototo would let out a troubled yell
  1716. "I don't like this!"
  1717. (Hototo)
  1718. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1719.  
  1720. [18:51:18] Citlalli whispers something.
  1721. [18:51:18] The archon would simply stare forward grabbing his blade as he sensed something dangerous nearby.. Hellstorm lightning began to cover his being as his instincts to destroy kicked in. Something ominous was approaching and he would be prepared. Jumping a ways back from the Miasma that scrubbed along the square.
  1722.  
  1723. He reached towards his weapon drawing it out and looking to those around him to gauge the situation and the effect it gave the humans. Even he was a bit disoriented from the toxins although not quite as terribly as the humans near it.
  1724.  
  1725. The Archon stood ready for what was to come next.
  1726. (Rothraim)
  1727. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1728.  
  1729. [18:51:18] Lotlhuitl was standing by Xitlalli. The Nagual with the blue-black hair choked back a snarl, eyes widening as she searched for the search of that terrible, deadly feeling.
  1730.  
  1731. Was it Tragedy? No. It was something else. Panic and fear threatened to rise within her. She choked such emotions down. Locked them away. Leaving only anger in their wake.
  1732.  
  1733. Kayeliun spoke. The Nagual focused on that. Focused on her chieftain's words.
  1734.  
  1735. "Answer the Chieftain of the Cruxati, creature!"
  1736. (Lotlhuitl)
  1737. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1738.  
  1739. [18:51:18] Nyrra was unsure what to make of the events that were transpiring, but she barely lacked the energy to focus. And her emotional state wasn't helping either. She'd merely remain at Glasya' side, clutched to her chest.
  1740.  
  1741. "Right,"
  1742. (Nyrra)
  1743. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1744.  
  1745. [18:52:09] Sul'Koth felt his body grow numb and cold. His perception being altered in a state he'd never encountered before. Closing his eyes for a brief moment, fingers curled into fists as all in the area seemed to feel the same change effect them all. Their reactions noticably showing that they'd witnessed it.
  1746.  
  1747. With a lowered voice, Sul'Koth spoke to Hue.
  1748. "The.. intensity.. Such power."
  1749. His head bowed and eyes focused upon the center of the Cruxati square.
  1750. (Sul'Koth)
  1751. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1752.  
  1753. [18:52:09] The sensation of the world dying certainly was no benign experience.
  1754.  
  1755. Especially to Magi who attuned themselves to the elements on the regular. As color, life, and sound seem to drain away from existence in their general area, Shan's pupils constrict quite suddenly.
  1756.  
  1757. Like a beast that'd smelled danger, his instincts reached a fever pitch almost instantaneously- the sensation sets off alarm bells in Shan's head, and he lets out a snarl.
  1758.  
  1759. It is feral, but he maintains a calm grasp over the alertness that suddenly detonated from inside him, wrapping him a sense of danger that made his five senses scream danger.
  1760.  
  1761. A foul taste, a foul smell, a foul touch as though some disgusting ichor of spectral nature had clung to his skin assails him.
  1762.  
  1763. "Careful," he states, one hand on his staff, ready to draw it, and another covering the front of the fae beside him.
  1764.  
  1765. Was that him being protective? Perhaps.
  1766. (Shan Baiyan)
  1767. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1768.  
  1769. [18:52:09] As the two made their approach into the square their eyes fell upon all those present.
  1770.  
  1771. 'Quite a crowded day it would seem' he chuckled to himself before resting his gaze back on the sight before him.
  1772.  
  1773. His legs about to step forth and take the lead from Sul before feeling a devastating chill working its way up and down his spine, and with that it slowly grew into something far worse. His hand rested on the back of the cowl as he rubbed his head a touch confused, trying to look at the faces in the crowd to ascertain what was happening. They all however seemed as confused as he was, he merely waited patiently hopefully an answer would be given.
  1774. (Hue Coliqui)
  1775. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1776.  
  1777. [18:52:09] Floating haphazardly throughout the square was Ravan, the kind and always smiling dirt fairy. In the midst of not doing much at all though a cold, terrible, horrendous feeling covered their body like a film of oil. Shuddering they saw towards the center of the square, the permeation of that sickening feeling pushing the small fairy away...And so it did, floating quite a few feet away while watching the moving crowd around it. There was something wrong here and Ravan wanted to know what it was, though they definitely didn't want to get closer to it.
  1778. (Ravan)
  1779. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1780.  
  1781. [18:52:09] Well, that certainly wasn't supposed to happen! The eerie feeling that suddenly spreads is enough to make the young fae's fiery aura dissipate, allowing for her to gently glide towards Shan's shoulder where she promptly sought to use him as a human meatshield.
  1782.  
  1783. "... I don't believe this is supposed to happen." Paprika mumbled, making a very educated guess. She remains crouched, Shan's shoulder her newfound perch.
  1784.  
  1785. If anything came their way, she'd just duck behind the much larger shield...
  1786. (Paprika)
  1787. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1788.  
  1789. [18:52:09] Walking into the Cruxati square after seemingly losing it - he had already been feeling horrible - he's done something unforgivable even by his own standards. His mind was a clusterfuck of emotions coming back and forth and then something happened.
  1790.  
  1791. A disturbance in the force-
  1792.  
  1793. The occultist could not help but feel as everything around him had died down - quiet - voices went by unheard. He felt as though he stepped into a literal void. What the fuck was that?
  1794.  
  1795. Everything around him had stopped moving for a second and he felt sick to his stomach - it felt as though it was the first time he'd ever taken a life, which was odd on it's own accord.
  1796. (Guatemoc)
  1797. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1798.  
  1799. [18:52:09] LOOC - Imra'el: [you're all reading everything, right?

  1803. [18:53:00] LOOC - Ravan: (Full of about 30 responses to different people)
  1804. [18:53:00] The transition was immediate, and for the first time since his arrival, Olander knew fear. The distortions were otherworldly, as though an incomprehensible being had sucked all life from the square; vibrant greens became the muted shades of lichen, and the latte colouring of architecture seemed to fade to a deeper mocha, and then grey. Olander remained beside Citalli, peering -- many had gathered, expecting some great force, some great evil to strike upon these already tainted hands.
  1805.  
  1806. He wondered how often this sort of calamity occurred within the obscured Dreadwood swamps and jungles. The weapon is, thus, accepted tentatively, and flared with the flaxen sparklings of cosmic intensity.
  1807.  
  1808. This was not his battle, though it seemed he had little choice in the matter...
  1809.  
  1810. (Olander)
  1811. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1812.  
  1813. [18:53:52] The wave of psychic emptiness echoes through the Paladin's mind, his body going limp as his very holy essence seems to dim down and fade slightly. Quickly, his gaze moved to face the others in the square, quickly...
  1814.  
  1815. His first reaction was not to protect himself, even if his leylines shone to do so, covering him in a slight, shining coat of yellow light. Its usually peaceful sensations, the symphonic hum, would be muted by the disabling sensation that ran through his body.
  1816.  
  1817. But of course, his first reaction was to run towards the center of the square, his hand ready to pull onto the nyeshk greatsword as he shone slightly, but instead of charging at the odd presence in the middle, he put himself in front of Kaschei, and by consequence, in front of Toka.
  1818.  
  1819. "Stand behind." He said.
  1820. (Paladin)

  1824. [18:53:52] LOOC - Esperite: (no)
  1825. [18:53:52] There was a shift, a change in the area around. Her vision became hazy and the world around her began to change. Everything became dull, and dead. Voices fade in and out, and the world around her became desolate and colorless.
  1826.  
  1827. For the first time, she felt a sort of fear. She did not like this, the sudden lifelessness, the dullness of her surroundings. The foreboding energies that drifted around. This didn't feel right, it felt ominous, and nothing good came from that.
  1828.  
  1829. "Brace yourself Chitli..."
  1830.  
  1831. She would mutter to herself. Whatever was invading now, was unseen, and that made everything worse. She would draw the oversized scythe from her back, and her lightning would form about her. It was rather erratic, her emotions getting the better of her.
  1832.  
  1833. If only she was able to get her spirit companion before this. She'd simply have to rely on herself, and those around now though.
  1834. (Chitli)

  1873. [18:57:16] Esperite whispers something.
  1874. [18:57:16] The moment they've come to Cruxati square, Imra'el notices A LOT of people gathered there. What was going on? He'd look on to the middle of the square and see nothing; he'd look at people's faces and see lots of expressions. Fear, anger, anxiety, and even a couple of people were crying.
  1875.  
  1876. He'd look around, looking for his Atlan brothers and sisters.
  1877.  
  1878. "...Xomac?"
  1879.  
  1880.  
  1881. The dryad starts separating himself off the demon and Nyrra, looking for his people.
  1882. (Imra'el)
  1883. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1884.  
  1885. [18:57:16] {NARRATION} The shimmering seems to split and a thick glob of mana passes through. At the start it is formless, but as it begins to observe those around it, the mana begins to take a near physical shape. The globs shrink down into narrow structures of ivory. They continue to mould and shape themselves into bones. More mana pours through and more and more it takes shape.
  1886.  
  1887. Until, eventually it takes the shape of a Skeleton Lich, floating above the ground. It wears a long gown that seems to fade away as it nears the ground, never quite touching it. Dark magics flowed off of it, sucking away at the life around it, sapping and clawing at your very souls. The being sweeps its gaze around silently, its clothes don't even rustle in the air.
  1888.  
  1889. A silent, calm watcher.
  1890. [18:57:16] Paprika whispers something.

  1925. [18:58:59] Malgannan remains in the same position, raising his halberd into a defensive position. Holy fucking shit... Such a massive prey. A true challenge perhaps? Why was it watching, in silence? Why isn't it talking? Many questions... Most likely to remain unanswered. One thing was certain. This would escalate int ocombat.
  1926. (Malgannan)

  1930. [18:59:50] Cocinar says, "Perhaps this is a messenger. From beyond death..."
  1931. [18:59:50] Despite overwhelming pain and despair, Zoromon forces himself to wield his staff properly, to surge whatever kind of mana possible, to protect himself with protective barrier of any kind.
  1932.  
  1933. Taking steps backwards with gritted teeth, to resist the occult drain of life.

  1940. [18:59:50] LOOC - Ethren Hilthrex: (i just made LOL)
  1941. [18:59:50] Nyrra could barely process what the creature was, her mind was too tired to even think. What was happening? How was this happening... She felt sick, something wasn't right. She found herself moving closer to Glasya.
  1942. (Nyrra)
  1943. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1944.  
  1945. [18:59:50] "What the fuck?" She exclaimed loudly. A thick aura of blood surrounded the woman's form, the sickly scent drowned out by the various people present. Dull emeralds glimmered against the sight.
  1946.  
  1947. "Whatever, same old standard shit." She hopped down, staring at the Paladin on the other side. "Kill it before it kills us."
  1948. (Masika)
  1949. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1950.  
  1951. [19:00:41] Looks confused as he draws in his surroundings.
  1952. (Ethren Hilthrex)
  1953. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1954.  
  1955. [19:00:41] Glasya sighs. This was going to get... 'difficult'.
  1956.  
  1957. "Nyrra, darling, things might get a little rough... I would suggest you hang on tightly, alright?"
  1958.  
  1959. Her skull's two balefire eyes slowly wink out, becoming empty sockets as occultism begins to flow through her body in a defensive fashion. Things were going to get rough quite quickly.
  1960. (Glasya Labolas)
  1961. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1962.  
  1963. [19:00:41] Guatemoc watches as that thing made itself present to the naked eye.
  1964.  
  1965. What. The. Fuck.
  1966.  
  1967. The mere sight of it brought dread to Guatemoc, he had never seen anything like it before. Just what the hell is that?
  1968.  
  1969. Taking a deep breath in, Guatemoc watched the observer - merely taking note of it's presence.
  1970.  
  1971. Making his way next to Cullen, he wouldn't let cowardace take over - for he is a warrior of Ezmaran.
  1972. (Guatemoc)
  1973. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1974.  
  1975. [19:00:41] The grip upon his stave tightens .. Occultic tendrils of water magic flow around his being, formed from the grasses below..
  1976.  
  1977. "..Pyrrha! Lend me your aid!"
  1978.  
  1979. The words are spoken, and his Ignifox makes an appearance from its capture cube-- fire flows from its form, blue and orange as the heat it exhumes only intensifies further.
  1980. (Citlalli)
  1981. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1982.  
  1983. [19:00:41] A burst of chaotic aura could be felt Rothraim set his gaze forward as the globs of corrupted mana fell from its frame. He simply starred forward watching the occultic power drain the land of its life. A smirk drew on his face as he saw all of his demon kin gather to witness this as well. They were more than up to the task to defeat this creature with the help of the Gehennans as well...Rothraim stared forward only caring about the threat in front of him. A snap of his fingers summoned his demonic thralls to his side.
  1984. (Rothraim)
  1985. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1986.  
  1987. [19:00:41] JaDrako Kumo exclaims, "Oh shit! K man hit the scene!"
  1988. [19:01:32] The feeling would just get stronger, he still felt abandoned, still as if there was no way to defend himself, anyway... He'd try to light the Holy torch inside of him, however, he fails... His last option was to let the sand carcass surround and embrace his body.
  1989.  
  1990. As he lends his righ hand to his sword's handle, he couldn't exactly know why, he wasn't with his Holy Aura on, however, he felt a huge danger upcomig from it... He still felt a little bit bad, it wasn't not even close to be a good feeling to stay in there, he still wanted to hold his heart in fear, the Chaos... It was so... Disgusting.
  1991.  
  1992. "How...? What the fuck?!"
  1993. (Raoni Vzier)
  1994. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1995.

  1999.  
  2000. [19:01:32] LOOC - Adsila Coaxoch: (Ok.)
  2001. [19:01:32] The strange creature appearing from nowhere, Nochte was simply watching it, admiring it, it was simply marvelous.
  2002.  
  2003. Starting to wield his staff, he was preparing to fight, even if he wasn't able to use his mana properly.
  2004.  
  2005. "Well... that's gotta be interesting."
  2006.  
  2007. Hoping that the wound would not pull him down on the fight, he tried to stay calm in front of the creature.
  2008. (Nochte)
  2009. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2010.  
  2011. [19:01:32] Anaxes remained still as the creature phased through, silently preparing itself for whatever battle was to come. The Demon was ill at ease, but stood steady.
  2012.  
  2013. The Kaor observed the mana taking shape, tilting its head in curiousity as it formed and shifted. As the final form of the skeletal Lich emerged, the Demon took a quiet step back.
  2014.  
  2015. "Curious.
  2016.  
  2017. The Kaor was calm, for now at least. It started slowly moving away, trying to get out of reach of the life-draining magic.
  2018. (Anaxes)
  2019. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2020.  
  2021. [19:01:32] Kaschei could only gasp in horror- maw agape- as a thing of replete Horror slips through that quiet shape of gloom. The abysmal tranquility of disquiet nothingness that had filled the square prior was nothing compared to this: a gold-boned lich cloaked in veils of purple gore, a black veneer of otherworldly flesh clinging to his vile body...
  2022.  
  2023. And already, a terrible magic akin to the likes of Tragedy's tugged on his life essence. Kaschei could feel it: the threat of a phantom power able to tear his soul from his flesh.
  2024.  
  2025. There was only one thing to do; he brandishes his staff and beckons the descent of Solar mana, wreathing himself in a veil of blessed flame. "A- ... an Akuma has descended!" Shouts the Krausite, unsure of what else to call such a horrible sight.
  2026. (Kaschei)
  2027. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2028.  
  2029. [19:01:32] LOOC - Cocinar: (Adsila, TL;dr: This was a miazma, and we are planning to fight apparently)
  2030. [19:01:32] LOOC - Adsila Coaxoch: ((got it.)
  2031. [19:01:32] Eyes drawing upwards, scanning the skeletal beast and god-like figure of undeath before them all. Sul'Koth felt his jaw drop in awe as his eyes widened.
  2032. Could this be the wrath of the Valmasian Empire for the burning of Avalon that he'd heard of? He'd attempt to speak in his surprise and state of awe to no avail as the lips upon his mouth moved without words.
  2033. (Sul'Koth)
  2034. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2035.  
  2036. [19:01:32] LOOC - Adsila Coaxoch: (Posting something random.)
  2037. [19:01:32] It wasn't like anything she'd seen before.
  2038.  
  2039. A strange creature emerged, and likely not at her demands. Whatever the thing was felt otherworldly and ancient, a demon of its own realm and not from their's. It was even unlikely if it would be able to answer them in a language that any of them could understand.
  2040.  
  2041. Still, Kayeliun merely stared at him, her gaze impassive, even as her wings slowly outstretched behind her.
  2042.  
  2043. The power it encompassed... it was almost intoxicating.
  2044.  
  2045. But it was silent, and it made no move to attack, and so....
  2046.  
  2047. "I'll give you one chance- what do you want?" again, her voice echoed about, aimed direclty towards the creature with a funnel of sound magic, "Answer fast. I doubt the people of Gehenna will be held off from attacking for very long."
  2048.  
  2049. And if there was no answer, well... she'd just join them.

  2052.  
  2053. [19:01:32] Xoconan says, "Malachai, shut the absolute fuck up."
  2054. [19:01:32] Magnolia would continue watching on as a being began to take shape in front of them, pouring large amounts of mana into the area and creating a pressure unlike anything Maggie had felt. This was likely one of the most powerful creatures she had ever seen and she began to wonder what its origins might be.
  2055.  
  2056. As the various Magi made their statements towards the powerful being, Maggie would begin fueling her aura heavily, thickening the dark blue mana that surged around her small form. She would also have take Silver Silence from its sheath. Having her sword held by her side in her right hand, Maggie would simply continue to stare up, wondering what would become of the scene.
  2057. (Magnolia )
  2058. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2059.  
  2060. [19:02:24] Wordlessly, the demon's gaze settles on the newly materialized Lich, eyes slowly narrowing into thin slits at the sight of the strange undead monstrosity. Yet, he remained motionless, silent- the creature's very presence seemed to tug at the souls of those there, it was not his intention to further provoke it.
  2061.  
  2062. "Is...Friend. Is...Foe. This situation be odd, will be strange. Crowd shout to fight, stranger say nothing yet- will be...quick, to be certain."
  2063. (Noxim Florus)
  2064. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2065.  
  2066. [19:02:24] Raoni Vzier assumes the Fomorian stance!
  2067. [19:02:24] LOOC - Magnolia : death aura and camo, gg)
  2068. [19:02:24] The dryad merely watches. Unspeaking.
  2069.  
  2070. If she had to take action, she would.
  2071.  
  2072. The time being, there was no recourse.
  2073. (Adsila Coaxoch)
  2074. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2075.  
  2076. [19:02:24] Kin-Zhen tends to stay with its kin, a face without eyes staring upwards at the beast, the sound of scraping claws was easily drained out by all the speaking.
  2077. (Kin-Zhen)
  2078. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2079.  
  2080. [19:02:24] LOOC - Erenan Qi: (how to fight large groups 101)
  2081. [19:02:24] LOOC - Maiya Vindict: (omg)
  2082. [19:02:24] LOOC - Kin-Zhen: (You have 1 hour, 24 minutes left until your next check. You currently qualify for an RPP reward in the upcoming check!
  2083. [19:02:24] LOOC - Rothraim: [I hope Arcanium drops.
  2084. [19:02:24] LOOC - Kin-Zhen: (yays
  2085. [19:02:24] "Ah... What in the fuck?" She asked softly, fingers clenching her staff all the harsher. Eyes narrowed, taking one deep breath after the other. "What..."
  2086.  
  2087. And then, that oh so... *Familiar* sensation of her soul being tugged on, life force sapped. Death. Whatever the fuck this thing was, Lich, Demon, or something else entirely, it was a wielder of Death.
  2088.  
  2089. Lips curled in a sneer, anger forcing its way through the apathetic form. She, all too obviously, did not enjoy having her soul sapped with Death.
  2090. (Xoconan)
  2091. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2092.  
  2093. [19:02:24] LOOC - Paladin: (sec, getting protect...)
  2094. [19:02:24] LOOC - Kin-Zhen: (i just want soothe reed
  2095. [19:02:24] LOOC - Anaxes: (HEY UH)
  2096. [19:02:24] LOOC - Xitlalli: (oooh...)
  2097. [19:02:24] LOOC - Kin-Zhen: (else my build is fucked
  2098. [19:02:24] LOOC - Anaxes: (FRIENDLY FIRE IS GOING TO BE A BITCH)
  2099. [19:02:24] LOOC - Adsila Coaxoch: (My first ever event.)
  2100. [19:03:15] LOOC - Adsila Coaxoch: (im so excited.)
  2101. [19:03:15] LOOC - Anaxes: (IS THERE A GEHENNA GUILD?)
  2102. [19:03:15] Before she could finish her sentence, the harbinger of death itself manifested before their very eyes. Paprika stared, mouth hung agape and beady eyes wide.
  2103.  
  2104. "What is that!?" She hissed out. In all her years alive, she had never seen anything like it. Not once had such a powerful being ever graced her presence, and for once, she finds herself gripped by fear.
  2105.  
  2106. She shrinks, crouching lower upon Shan's shoulder in an attempt to fruitlessly make herself seem invisible. It doesn't work. She can still feel that draining hold and it makes her sneer.
  2107.  
  2108. Her aura flares up again, her body burning a little bit hotter much to Shan's probably dismay- but! He was a magma mage. He'd be fine.
  2109. (Paprika)
  2110. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2111.  
  2112. [19:03:15] Xoconan says, "I swear to every spirit on this planet, if you don't shut the fuck up and we survive, I'm killing you."
  2113. [19:03:15] LOOC - Paladin: (there is a gehenna guild)
  2114. [19:03:15] LOOC - Anaxes: (INVITE PLS!)
  2115. [19:03:15] When the Skeleton lich takes form- spectral or not- Shan couldn't help but feel an ambivalence of emotions; his senses screamed danger, but his mind was going wild with excitement.
  2116.  
  2117. This was a powerful entity.
  2118.  
  2119. In an instant, magma begins to flow on his form, swiftly turning into lava once it drips off his form, sizzling through the tiles and grass below his feet.
  2120.  
  2121. Naturally, he controls it well enough to avoid harm upon his two fairy companions...a rare thing, for him to care.
  2122.  
  2123. He doesn't say anything- perhaps the fae would. He, too, watches the lich, but most likely it was not here to entertain him. So he would just... watch.
  2124.  
  2125. If need be, unleash pain upon it should this lead to aggression.
  2126. (Shan Baiyan)
  2127. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2128.  
  2129. [19:03:15] LOOC - Magnolia : i need gehenna invite)
  2130. [19:03:15] LOOC - Paladin: (BEFORE WE DO ANYTHING PLEASE)
  2131. [19:03:15] LOOC - Rothraim: [ Should we get invited.
  2132. [19:03:15] LOOC - Imra'el: [invite me here too
  2133. [19:03:15] LOOC - Rothraim: [Im not in gehennan guild
  2134. [19:03:15] LOOC - Imra'el: [oh nvm
  2135. [19:03:15] LOOC - Imra'el: [lel
  2136. [19:03:15] Even the relatively proud Eseprite couldn't help but duck behind Shan's shoulder with Paprika once the ghastly figure actually appeared.
  2137.  
  2138. While he wasn't here to defend Gehenna explicitly, seeing that monster made it feel a lot less like defending any one country in particular and outright trying to save the world- it was horrid.
  2139.  
  2140. Utterly, utterly horrid in every way, stricken with decay and death and soul-crushing terror...
  2141.  
  2142. Yet at the same time, the Exorcist in the young fairy found a reason to stand up and form the same shield as had been aforementioned, proving to be the barest bit resilient against whatever plague it commanded over the surroundings.
  2143.  
  2144. "This is certainly something I've never seen before," he murmured, rubbing the back of his head and ducking behind Shan a bit further. "I can't even get away from all this fire..."
  2145. (Esperite)
  2146. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2147.  
  2148. [19:03:15] LOOC - Magnolia : ty)
  2149. [19:03:15] LOOC - Guatemoc: (invite me cyn im a cool guy
  2150. [19:03:15] LOOC - Glasya Labolas: (NAY, NEITHER AM I)
  2151. [19:03:15] LOOC - Esperite: (i need an invite as well
  2152. [19:03:15] LOOC - Adsila Coaxoch: (If anyone else needs an invite.)
  2153. [19:03:15] So… massive. The moulding of mana into this creature was an intricate, and ultimately interesting process; how its globules of energy had kneaded carefully upon themselves to create this titan was beyond him, and yet, in his eighteen years, he’d seen nothing like it. The people of Gehenna, however, seemed prepared. Scared, yes, but eager to combat it.
  2154.  
  2155. It left him questioning how they made time to single-handedly collapse a nation while defending their own territories from beasts like this.
  2156.  
  2157. Still, with blade drawn and cosmic-exorcistic energies flared, booning about him in a great, golden wave, he felt, perhaps, as prepared as one might manage in the face of such deafening energy.
  2158.  
  2159. Bestow your power unto me, Lord Azrael, he prayed.
  2160.  
  2161. (Olander)
  2162. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2163.  
  2164. [19:03:15] LOOC - Adsila Coaxoch: (Say now.)
  2165. [19:03:15] LOOC - Glasya Labolas: (PLEASE DO THE INVITE SO I DON'T GET AOE'd INTO SADNESS)
  2166. [19:03:15] Hue was beginning to think it all a charade perhaps a joke even, played by one of the more powerful magi around the area. What spawned before them however was anything but, throughout the creatures manifestation it presented an unbridled amount of power the likes of which he had read about in children stories but never seen in person.
  2167.  
  2168. 'Spirits Protect...' The man mumbles to himself all the while gazing on the spectral menace.
  2169.  
  2170. It was then he realized the shifting changes of the environment, the way the area seemed to lose the life of its color within moments, even the trees around began groaning and creaking as they bent and became malnourished under the weight of the creatures magical prowess.
  2171.  
  2172. Grabbing hold of his weapon he stares the massive being down, warbles of time magic pulsating around him seamlessly. At least he wouldn't have to fight such a being on his own...
  2173. (Hue Coliqui)
  2174. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2175.  
  2176. [19:03:15] Darkness seeps through with corrupt mana clawing through the image, taking its own shape in a more skeletal, deformed form.
  2177.  
  2178. A creature of darkness, and her Atro pondered if this was akin to what Ryan Kyros appeared to be.
  2179.  
  2180. The overwhelming dark claws at his soul, causing him to wince and sweat as he takes in the pain. His body shivering and twitching as the corrupt energies lash out.
  2181.  
  2182. Uncertain to his own current capabilities, he still draws his weapon, keeping it ready; yet certain anyhow - the longer it remained, the more the pain ensued through his entire being.
  2183. (Atro Gwyn)
  2184. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2185.  
  2186. [19:03:15] LOOC - Esperite: (i need an invite as well
  2187. [19:03:15] LOOC - Rothraim: [Don't want to get killed by friendly fire.
  2188. [19:04:06] LOOC - Cocinar: (What's an invite?)
  2189. [19:04:06] LOOC - Erenan Qi: (WHAT)
  2190. [19:04:06] LOOC - Cocinar: (I need one!)
  2191. [19:04:06] LOOC - Erenan Qi: (IS)

  2197. [19:04:06] LOOC - Raoni Vzier: (Invite e.e

  2199. [19:04:06] LOOC - Rothraim: [wow rude don't abandon your powerhouses.
  2200. [19:04:06] Closer to the source--- a source which felt all too real and Karma couldn't help but find his steps slowing down, getting smaller and smaller with each passing moment until his eyes finally took in the sight of Cruxati square--- and the unfamiliar, big guest that stood there.
  2201.  
  2202. A small crackle of lightning follows and Karma neatly lands upon temple stairs, yellow hues focused upon the lich, his head tilted over to the side and a soft, soft curl of lips gracefully sitting upon his features as he'd let out a soft chuckle.
  2203.  
  2204. "Can't catch a break, huh..." it's offered outwards, a brief glance spared in Kayeliun's direction before he'd let his eyes wander over to the lich again, smiling all the while.
  2205.  
  2206. "Do you talk?"
  2207. (Karma Vindict)
  2208. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2209.  
  2210. [19:04:06] LOOC - Kin-Zhen: (behind you, adsila.
  2211. [19:04:06] The mass of energy around would take form, slowly but surely in the middle of Cruxati. She had never seen such a being before, it was large, bigger than any creature that she had seen before. She didn't know if she was prepared for something like this.
  2212.  
  2213. The robed skeletal being before her seemed to try and tear at her very souls as if it was trying to steal her very life from her. The dark energies flooded off the creature before everyone there. It clearly was a menace, something that needed to die, and despite her current fear, she was going to help kill it one way or another.
  2214.  
  2215. She would silently stare at the being through her hood, observing it just as it was observing then. It's motives were ordered from Kayeliun. She wanted to strike this being down. If it was a skeleton, then it was an undead, and she hated those that were plagued by such a curse.
  2216. (Chitli)
  2217. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2218.  
  2219. [19:04:06] Hototo simply stops, not making a move, not making a sound, his blood truly running cold at the sight of the eldritch monstrosity amongst him.
  2220.  
  2221. Dread crushes down on the golden-robed warrior, causing him to kneel down onto the pavement, praising the god-like being.
  2222. (Hototo)
  2223. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2224.  
  2225. [19:04:06] Closer to the east entrance, he'd find Ajax along with Malachai and a few other of his kin. As the young dryad was about to open his mouth, he felt a HUGE cold into his whole spine. He'd look back, and his eyes met a huge lich standing right in the middle of the Cruxati Square. What the fuck?
  2226.  
  2227.  
  2228. Imra'el never really changed his expression, but now in front of this... even the motionless dryad opened his eyes, impressed by the figure that had just appeared.
  2229.  
  2230.  
  2231. "... what... what are you?"
  2232. (Imra'el)
  2233. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2234.  
  2235. [19:04:06] Kayeliun meets Karma's glance with a very pained one of agreement.
  2236. (Kayeliun)
  2237. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2238.  
  2239. [19:04:06] LOOC - Rothraim: [Karma invite me bby
  2240. [19:04:06] Malgannan says, "We shall slay this abomination together."
  2241. [19:04:57] Rothraim says, "Aye..."
  2242. [19:04:57] LOOC - Hue Coliqui: (adsila can i get an invite as well)
  2243. [19:04:57] LOOC - Adsila Coaxoch: (Gotcha, roth.)
  2244. [19:04:57] LOOC - Adsila Coaxoch: (Sure.)
  2245. [19:04:57] LOOC - Glasya Labolas: (SHOULD WE)
  2246. [19:04:57] LOOC - Rothraim: [ty.
  2247. [19:04:57] Hatsune watched the mana coalesce into a semi-physical form. While it didn't seem wholly there, possibly being a projection or a spiritual being, that didn't necessarily mean there was less of a threat.
  2248.  
  2249. Just that it was possible that it was not the threat to be wary of. Not likely, but at least it was possible.
  2250.  
  2251. The mermaid stood behind the others as she often did, and golden light began to coalesce around her body. It erupted in all directions, going wide out and wavering along its length like deep ocean waves struck by the sun. Diminutive, spectral figures flock to her. Sea life of shimmering golds and silvers swim through the light around her body; consisting of koi and other fish of paradise.
  2252.  
  2253. And from her spilled an aura to combat the sickening presence that the lich, half of the humans and other humanoids, and the demons over on the other side of the crowd were spilling out...
  2254.  
  2255. So really, herpresence of calm and belonging was hardly felt, even by those close to her. There was just too much wrong in this square of people.
  2256. (Hatsune Panic)
  2257. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2258.  
  2259. [19:04:57] LOOC - Cocinar: (Adsila, I'm on the stairs behind Karma, Can I get inv?)
  2260. [19:04:57] LOOC - Magnolia : lol all these inivtes)
  2261. [19:04:57] LOOC - Glasya Labolas: (GO OFFSCREEN AND GET INTO A LINE?)
  2262. [19:04:57] Zaruma says, "Don't be so eager. We need to know what it is, first."
  2263. [19:04:57] Kayeliun says, "It hasn't been aggressive yet, but it hasn't said anything, either."
  2264. [19:04:57] Rothraim says, "It doesn't seem like we will get the chance..."
  2265. [19:04:57] It was with horror on the little fairies face that it watched as mana practically manifested from nothing into a physical body. bones formed, claws erected, until a Lich was fully manifested in the center of the square. All the while Ravan was in the side of the fence cowering in utter trepidation, "PLEASE DONT EAT ME!" the Fae screamed trying to put itself as far into the corner as possible.
  2266.  
  2267. Yet even in that fear, the Fae knew what it had to do, as it could see all the other people within the crowd getting ready to battle against the abomination. It had to help, to battle, assisting them to defend the place from such utter chaos! So it would!
  2268. (Ravan)
  2269. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2270.  
  2271. [19:04:57] Xoconan says, "It's using Death, that's aggressive enough."
  2272. [19:04:57] Atla recovered and could perceive the miasma getting stronger, a shadow began to appear in the middle of Cruxati, he saw other Magis preparing and getting alert and then decided to do the same.
  2273.  
  2274. He pulled the bow from her back and concentrated, causing the mystical energy to begin to run through his body, the energy gathering and condensing went to the storage on his shoulder, this potentiated his physical and magical abilities.
  2275.  
  2276. A great danger was arising and this was no time to play.
  2277.  
  2278. 'Renata, this time I think I'll need your help too.' He said telepathically with his spirit.
  2279.  
  2280. 'That sucks, I really feel something terrible coming, I'll help you, be careful not to hurt yourself.'
  2281.  
  2282. This is where Renata appears on the physical plane, staying with Atla to help him.
  2283. (Atla-Cuauhtli)
  2284. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2285.  
  2286. [19:04:57] Malgannan says, "Who cares? It is quite obvious it is here to destroy. That is what Death Magi do."
  2287. [19:04:57] Olander whispers something.
  2288. [19:04:57] Adsila Coaxoch says, "I will not act until acted upon."
  2289. [19:04:57] Kayeliun says, "Openly aggressive."
  2290. [19:04:57] LOOC - Glasya Labolas: (Everyone who is not in Gehenna's guild, we should go to the south off screen to get invited!)
  2291. [19:05:48] LOOC - Cocinar: (Deal)
  2292. [19:05:48] Adsila Coaxoch says, "I support Kayeliun's opinion on the matter.."
  2293. [19:05:48] Citlalli whispers something.
  2294. [19:05:48] LOOC - Olander: ((ye im still waitin for an invite
  2295. [19:05:48] Hototo whispers something.
  2296. [19:05:48] LOOC - Hatsune Panic: ((I also need an invite.))
  2297. [19:05:48] Lotlhuitl's fluffy blue-black tail had visibly bristled, her eyes wide, disbelief decorating her delicate features.
  2298.  
  2299. She wasn't afraid of anything. She was no coward.
  2300.  
  2301. This was, surely, a wraith.
  2302.  
  2303. Still. Lotlhuitl had to force her fear down. It was an innate, guttural reaction. And.. while her immediate reaction was to attack, guided by the Chieftain of Cruxati, the Nagual held back.
  2304.  
  2305. Lightning crackled over her form. Waiting.
  2306. (Lotlhuitl)
  2307. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2308.  
  2309. [19:05:48] Toka was not pleased by that sight! Especially when she felt the life begin to get sucked away from around it, her own very soul feeling like something was out for it. Whatever it was, she didn't like it at all. And as he wanted to keep it a secret, now would not be a time to hold back.
  2310.  
  2311. A deep breath was taken as the winds around her picked up. Water began to form, combining to make a cloud around her body. And finally, lightning would mix with the cloud. Forming a storm of her own around her body.
  2312.  
  2313. She had to be ready, she couldn't let her guard down at all due to what she was feeling. What was standing before her, before Gehenna.
  2314. (Toka)

  2322. [19:06:40] Xitlalli appeared very out of her depth here, one moment she was passing the time and idling away, then the next thing she knew there was a massive shape in the air, it appeared much like a ghastly and ghostly apparition! In response, all the dancer could do was murmur a few incoherent words.
  2323.  
  2324. "What is that thing?", she says, staggering back with a hint of fear in her eyes; it wasn't like anything she has ever seen before, was it perhaps a Wraith?
  2325.  
  2326. "Is that a Wraith?", she asks, nudging Lothlhuitl, "What do you think?"
  2327. (Xitlalli)

  2370. [19:09:13] He merely opens his arms, condensing a slight sphere of light around him, Kaschei and Toka, and all those surrounding him that still stood unaffected by the demonic forces. He felt the horrid sensation tugging at his soul, and yet, made his force to stop itself from getting pulled.
  2371.  
  2372. More than anything, his protective sensation made marble rise from the ground up towards him. It slowly covered his body, crackling with holy energy, the yellow irises gleaming through his helmet. It seemed to form a shield at his vacant hand, even if it meant a sacrifice to his balance by holding a broadsword on the other.
  2373.  
  2374. "Fight as one!" He said, lifting the marble arm and shield over his torso, and also his sword as a just-in-case anything happened to Kaschei or Toka.

  2405. [19:10:56] Hototo would slump to his knees, raising his arms, sweat dripping down them.
  2406. He begins to shout
  2407.  
  2408. "OH DARK ONE, WHAT IS IT YOU WANT?"

  2416. [19:10:56] {NARRATION} The being shifts its gaze around the square, looking at the gathering. (Wow, so many people in one place just randomly, isn't that just crazy?) It seems to pass over everyone equally, ignoring any one in particular and definitely not responding to anything being spoken to it. One of the Skeletal hands was raised and the thick aura of death seemed to expand.
  2417.  
  2418. Whatever this thing was here for, it definitely wasn't to talk. As the magic began to engulf it, it once more looked around, however, this time its gaze lingered on those of sin, those that were emotional and those that held strong attachments. Everyone was treated equally still, but its gaze lingered a little longer on those.
  2419.  
  2420. Eventually, the clawed skeletal hand was brought out and the thick mana hit the floor, erupting it in occultism and chaos.
  2421.  
  2422. The stage was set.
  2423. [19:10:56] LOOC - Rothraim: [LOL Karma

  2428. [19:11:47] As much of one to join the bandwagon as any, Noxim gradually coalesces an aura of shade around his form. It was time to fight, whether or not the beast was truly interested in it or otherwise.

  2460. [19:13:29] As the aura of Death expanded, Anaxes backed away. It had gotten a taste of this in battle alongside Tragedy, and it had little wish to be on the receiving end of this horrid ability.
  2461.  
  2462. The Demon's own occult aura flared up as it got ready for battle. The Lich's gaze would likely pass it by, as Anaxes fit none of those traits.
  2463.  
  2464. With all its preparations complete, the Kaor prepared to fight. Carefully, of course! It didn't want to risk its own life for a bunch of Gehennans.
  2465. (Anaxes)

  2481. [19:13:29] LOOC - Karma Vindict: (guess im having no party huh
  2482. [19:13:29] Sul'Koth jumps back, the stone and rock beneath his feet igniting to the point of reaching molten temperature. Throwing both fists forth as his feet slowed his slide, Sul'Koth super-heated the air to a deafening screech before igniting the oxygen in a wall of flames.
  2483.  
  2484. With all of his might, he continued to release an onslaught of attacks in a defensive dance around as much of the chaos and occultic energy as possible.

  2497. [19:14:20] He would hold his blade firmly, standing by Nochte's side, fearing how many would die in this battle, or if anyone did... He... Never felt such an aura, in fact, there was no need for him to turn his Holy aura on, he could already feel the Dark upcoming from that thing... It was a disgusting feeling, he felt as if he was going to fell in madness just by standing clos to it.
  2498.  
  2499. He swallows and tries to slide to Fomorian while still keeping his eyes on the skeletal being, he was for sure more than threatened and scared with that thing in front of them.

  2505. [19:14:20] LOOC - Hatsune Panic: ((I'm in a group with two nonhealers already. Every other healer or anyone with a buff has likely already jumped on the chance to grab other people for this.))
  2506. [19:14:20] LOOC - Hatsune Panic: ((Because it's one of the few chances we'll get to use half of our kit.))
  2507. [19:15:12] LOOC - Magnolia : too late, im in a not heal party o.o)

  2544. [19:16:03] This was perhaps the greatest Magis junction that Atla had ever seen, even in Wars there was not so much magic involved, but by reason, the one in the middle of the square seemed to be of another level, he possessed the magic of death, even in the Through so much magic Atla could feel the scratches on her skin and that terrible sensation.
  2545.  
  2546. But he held firm that mystical magic would protect him as well, the wing on his right shoulder held steady despite having so much extra magic in the air.

  2552. [19:16:03] Citlalli whispers something.
  2553. [19:16:03] As soon as it acted, Imra'el knew what was going on. He'd take his shamanic staff off his back and his vines started to be agitated. Clearly, a fearful foe. But it was exactly for this kind of situation Imra'el had trained his body and mind for so many years. His expression slowly goes back to the usual calm and serene one, and the dryad looks at the huge being his emerald eyes.

  2563. [19:16:54] Guatemoc saw what that thing had been doing - it gazed directly at him and it's gaze merely lingered longer than it did to those around him. Just what did it want from him? Being quite literally a clusterfuck of emotional instability, Guatmeoc seemed to attracted the lich like Kitsunes get attracted to rutting peckers - and that was not a good thing.
  2564.  
  2565. He watched as the lich's thick mana hit the floor, erupting with choatic and death magic. Where it didn't bother him as much - it set a feeling of dread in the back of his mind - a feeling he hadn't experienced for a while, not since he left Gehenna behind and moved over to Agartha.
  2566.  
  2567. It wanted a fight - but a fight over what? It's intentions were unknown, going against so many people - demons and anything inbetween at once was not something such an ancient and dangerous being would do - faeries - archons and powerful Magi.
  2568.  
  2569. It was clearly outnumbered - but was it out-classed? That was the real question here.

  2943. [19:46:46] {NARRATION} The creature seemed mad, eager to destroy and devour. The unpleasant feeling at your cores suggested it was trying to tear not your souls, but your spirits from your bodies. Its grasp was powerful and unstoppable, at least for a while. Every single one of you would nearly fall forever to the beast, but whatever ties you had to this world, whatever connections you made... were what kept you alive.
  2944.  
  2945. The creature began to falter, its physical form once more returning to that of pure mana. First, it was only an arm, disintegrating away into the wind. But soon its other features began to fade and evaporate until all that was left was a pure core. It did not look man made, but it was hard to find something like this in the wild. It pulled on you all, like a tether.
  2946.  
  2947. As the creature finally faded it uttered one sentence, one final thing.
  2948.  
  2949. "The spirits are angry with you."
  2950.  
  2951. And then, all that was left was its core, that and a disgusting feeling in the pit of your being.
  2952.  
  2953. Everyone here has been afflicted with Spirit Rot. It will give you strange feelings of dissociation, as if your consciousness is not attached to your body. You will be able to lucidly dream freely though never in your own form. Memories will flash before you, memories of a life you did not live, a past person who once shared your soul.
  2954.  
  2955. Yet all of this is random and fleeting, and even so, it burns away at you. For with these feelings comes a deep, dark dread that something is no longer right in the world. And the sinking feeling that what isn't right... is you.

  3030. [19:51:53] This battle was clearly a death row.
  3031.  
  3032. As much as Zaruma held all of the power of an Archon within, it was clear that even for him this creature was of immense challenge - it was a team effort of all magi present, the only thing that managed to bring it down.
  3033.  
  3034. Zaruma was huffing audibly, recovering from the countless blows dealt; he was forced into retreat to recover a hefty amount of times too. This was evident by how he stood, by how he moved.
  3035.  
  3036. But at least it was over now. As glad as he was, even an alienated creature as he is couldn't help but feel the disgust towards it - a strange machinations of the magics involved, he figured.
  3037.  
  3038. "Hrr..."
  3039.  
  3040.  
  3041. "I wonder... what made it come. Odd."
  3042. (Zaruma)

  3049. [19:52:44] Cowardice paid off in this fight.
  3050.  
  3051. Anaxes spent the near entirety of the battle in the back rows, plinking away at this monstrosity with lightning and darkness, occasionally closing for a few moments to deal attacks of opportunity.
  3052.  
  3053. It was a slow, steady fight for the Kaor, fighting off the drain this creature inflicted while doing its part in the fight.
  3054.  
  3055. Eventually, the creature went down. The sinking feeling of despair it brought about went away as well. Anaxes was... affected by the rot, certainly, but the elation of a victory overshadowed that for the moment.
  3056.  
  3057. The Kaor stomped closer to the remains. There wasn't much to speak of, just the core.
  3058.  
  3059. The Kaor didn't really bother to grab it. This creature was after the Gehennans, it seemed.
  3060. (Anaxes)
  3061. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3062.  
  3063. [19:52:44] Nyrra had stayed close to the Demon, evading and barely escaping the attacks that were aimed at them both. The battle had seemingly raged on forever. And when it finally ended, the victory was bitter sweet. She was left feeling... empty.
  3064. (Nyrra)
  3065. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3066.  
  3067. [19:53:36] Half of his body was gone.
  3068.  
  3069. Like a hole, the left side of his chest, of his face and his left arm were gone. The dryad was a clear view to anyone near him, what looked like a walking body. But his expression, as always, seemed one of calm and serenity.
  3070.  
  3071.  
  3072. "So the spirits have spoken" he says, to whoever is near him.
  3073. (Imra'el)
  3074. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3075.  
  3076. [19:54:27] Once again a fight of epic proportion. The last time Malgannan came even close to participating into a fight against a foe of such incredible strength was when the skies we re torn open and a giant eye appeared. This time... It was a lich. A Death Magi. An incredibly strong one. A giant one.
  3077.  
  3078. There was no doubt, no hesitation in the Demon's mind. Not one bit. This abomination had to die. It was most likely the strongest foe Malgannan would ever get to fight, and thus the Demon savored this challenge. Enjoyed it.
  3079.  
  3080. He charged into the battle like a madmen, roaring and screaming. Followed by his Lesser Demon thralls his Halberd slashed away at the Lich inflicting light melee damage, for this creature was hard to penetrate. A massive force of elite Magi against an incredibly powerful lich.
  3081.  
  3082. The outcome? Victory. Su rprisingly enough. Many were about to fall. It would seem like the creature had the upper hand clearly. Yet somehow, Gehenna prevailed? Through sheer luck? Or did it lose on purpose to deliver its message of the spirits and show the power, the wrath they can inflict upon us if we do not satisfy them?
  3083.  
  3084. This encounter opened many new questions... And when the foe was slain? Malgannan dropped to his knees, his halberd falling. He was exhausted.
  3085. (Malgannan)

  3088. [19:54:27] LOOC - Ajax: (does spirit rot make you more emotionless or suicidal?)
  3089. [19:54:27] LOOC - Malgannan: [does it affect demons aswel?

  3094. [19:55:18] LOOC - Malgannan: [demons are different technically
  3095. [19:55:18] The greatest battle that Atla had ever participated in, all sorts of spells could be seen by land and sky, all elements and forms of magic were present, so much mana was in the air that caused a disturbance in the flow of mana, he tried help the way it could by providing support from a distance.
  3096.  
  3097. After a long battle the powerful being was destroyed, but not before he attempted to do something with everyone's spirits, Renata quickly returned to the etheric plane since something was wrong, all seemed to be affected more profoundly with the exception of Atla, he had trained his mind and spirit for a long time, he had gone to the spirit world itself, his connection was too strong, Spirit Rot would not have so many consequences in him.
  3098.  
  3099. Panting and tired after the biggest battle of his life, he just crouched on the ground holding himself in his own bow as he gathered his breath and continued to watch the crowd of Magis, watching what they were going to do with that Core.
  3100. (Atla-Cuauhtli)

  3116. [19:56:09] As Deathly energies melded with his skin, scorching meat and bone and even muscle, it became increasingly difficult to not tear away his own flesh in one, fleeting strike; it scolded him as though he had been dipped into a tub of boiling water, flame and fury scorching across every inch of his person. Even his clothing has begun to disintegrate beneath the unfathomable force, revealing lightly toned olive flesh beneath that screamed for some manner of mercy. And then --
  3117.  
  3118. -- gone, as fleetingly as it had arrived.
  3119.  
  3120. Soaked from tip to toe in blood and gore, he sought out Citlalli carefully, the only familiar face within this ocean of anguish. He had contributed little to the fight, ultimately, and had served mostly as artillery, raining star-fire from the heavens and scorching unto the beast weak astral energies.
  3121.  
  3122. Olander silently cursed, beneath the waning agony, that he hadn’t seized the opportunity to flee the territories of Gehenna.
  3123.  
  3124. (Olander)
  3125. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3126.  
  3127. [19:56:09] Atro's magic was not up to par, a sense of weakness to it, and he's forced with distance and holy magic to keep him up where cosmic gave his mana stamina.
  3128.  
  3129. But for all that had happened prior, he wasn't able to muster up a hint of the order arcane, no purification to his body and spirit; vulnerable to the tug of death, yet the world, whatever connection he had left, kept him clinging to life.
  3130.  
  3131. A pain like no other, and corruption seeping through his skin, touching his spirit and clinging in its own form.
  3132.  
  3133. While the battle seemingly complete -the being returning to mana- Atro falls to his knees, hugging his chest and shivering greatly with dull passive eyes. Pain seeped through his being, his breath exasperated and dry as his vessel conflicts.
  3134.  
  3135. But it could do nothing.
  3136. He could do nothing.
  3137.  
  3138. And so he suffers a new ailment, one that a person wished to inflict upon him...
  3139. (Atro Gwyn)
  3140. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3141.  
  3142. [19:56:09] Kaschei struggles in the shadows of the deathly spirit. An enigma from beyond- a shade which should not be- it commanded powers beyond the mortal's ability to fathom. Blasts of darkness leave Kaschei tumbling backwards through abysmal corridors of astral nothingness.
  3143.  
  3144. His light-magic, though it shines bright, quickly dims: the Light itself was dying. Streaks of necrosis tear pitch-black smudges across his body, peeling back to bare raw skin and bloody flesh as he's torn back in the assault.
  3145.  
  3146. With a final push- Kaschei is expelled from the darkness of Arra'kor with a thunderous shudder and a howl of wraith-like wailing. "Guhh-aaaah!" He howls out in a grunt of pain, before he's spat-out somewhere on the streets...
  3147.  
  3148. ... But even then, it wasn't over!
  3149. This was no battle- it had become a war.
  3150.  
  3151. Malachai, Maiya and Adsila all come to his aid; he rises and falls, burns-shut his wounds and exhausts all his mana nearly three times, casting healing on anyone he could while weaving cascades of blessed fire into the spectral lich. "Begone, Akuma! The power of Kraus compels you...!" He shouts with fervor: considering how little power he had to fight the fiend with, faith was perhaps the best option to him at that moment...
  3152.  
  3153. And after many more hard-fought furors and flashes of deadly combat, the creature flickers-away out into the eternal gloom from which it had come. Away it goes- back into the abyss, leaving behind only a blighting stone that had once been its unloving heart...
  3154.  
  3155. Kaschei falls to his palms and knees- panting, bloody and sweating. "I-it's gone..." He mutters- before he heaves dry, seeing visions of... what simply wasn't. Hands that weren't his. Sights he'd never seen.
  3156.  
  3157. He felt eerily disconnected from everything around him; some memories happened simultaneously, replaying in a mental dissonance that tormented his already-shaken mind. He pants, he breaths stiffly through his teeth, and he claws at the ground...
  3158.  
  3159. ... before he finally returns to reality- intact, living, but not well. "Damn, you, Akuma...! We're cursed..." He shouts-out, standing with a bloody face and worse for wear.
  3160.  
  3161. He jams a finger out at that wretched core as if to accuse it. "That's the heart of an Akuma! It's what's been cursing us! Destroy that unholy... thing!" He shouts, before he collapses-
  3162.  
  3163. Kaschei scrapes along even on a knee, towards the fiend's abandoned core. He hated it. All his sickness, all his pain, and the tragedies to have befallen him and his friend... somehow, he was able to blame them all on that dark sphere.
  3164. (Kaschei)
  3165. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3166.  
  3167. [19:56:09] She started slinking off. Spiritually she seemed... strange. She shrugged it off for now, tending to the more material world.
  3168.  
  3169. She continued with Nyrra. This was likely even more exhausting for the young warrior. Best to take her away from things.
  3170.  
  3171. "Come now, let's get going... Best not stick around, hm?"
  3172. (Glasya Labolas)
  3173. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3174.  
  3175. [19:56:09] Malachai pants as he was injured but never fell once. seeming to let out a sigh of relief and calmly recollects himself sitting on the ground seeming tired and exhausted. seeming to look up at the sky. seeming to close his eyes. clutching his staff.. seemings to feel the spirit rot inside his body. seeming to see his ailment either as a gift or a curse. seeming to see his 'previous' past lives..
  3176. (Malachai)
  3177. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3178.  
  3179. [19:57:00] Hatsune did what she could during that fight to tend to the backlines- Those weary who were readying themselves for another assault upon the indomitable spirit-thing that came to assault the Cruxati temple. The mermaid stalked between demon and man, and she was alight with flurried waters and winds that carried with them motes of silver light or refreshing surges of water to ease away the burns and pains of those around. It was meticulously done to avoid searing those occultic many around her with holy energies while bathing those who might take the most of her powers in all that she could give.
  3180.  
  3181. And while she did that, she kept her eyes forward but her attention elsewhere. The creature stalked and roamed, crossing barriers of men and brick alike as if they did not exist. Nothing could stop him from picking a target, it seemed, and hunting it down to the end. And so she kept her eyes forward but her attention upon it, blasting it with gale forced winds to hamper its movements and keep it from those allies who'd all stood up against it as well as she could...
  3182.  
  3183. But the front lines thinned. What was once a horde was a proud and powerful few, and with that so too did the back lines thin. Many were beacons of potency in this cluster-fray.
  3184.  
  3185. But with others shepherded behind or left wounded but tended, she joined as well...
  3186.  
  3187. Ice came in vicious, violent shards formed in the air around it, and wind slammed them home like sledgehammers. Water alight with burning silver light whirled about its ethereal form to consecrate its foul presence-
  3188.  
  3189. And so while she certainly did not do the heaviest lifting destroying the best, her sudden presence made a very clear difference... As others whirled and wailed upon it, it was a pillar of glowing, holy-burnt ice that struck it down in the end.
  3190.  
  3191. The mermaid stood amidst the fray as the spirit-thing disappeared, still burning with a golden light that offered peace and serenity to those that wished to take it. Her face was a mask of exotic features that obfuscated emotion. Whatever effect the curse had on her, she did not show it.
  3192. (Hatsune Panic)
  3193. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3194.  
  3195. [19:57:00] Nyrra says, "..Yeah"
  3196. [19:57:00] After falling a little too many times within the batle, Guatemoc was helped back on his feet by his comrades - striking at the beast with all he had - it made him fall once again - attempting to rip his soul out of his body; it wasn't going to be that easy. He held his sword and stabbed into the pure mana form of death magic - aiding Hatsune and the demons in banishing that thing back where it had belonged.
  3197.  
  3198. Exhuasted, the warrior fell onto his back - gasping for air; the attempt at dragging his soul was everything but a good experience. The disgust he felt - the oddness, the vivid dreams. Everything seemed to play back to him in reverse.
  3199.  
  3200. First it was a blonde man - befriending what seemed to be a bottle of scotch - a pain he had which withered his soul away - poisoned his mind to the point where he walked to his own suicide; watching the previous blood priest ending one of his past lives before his very eyes.
  3201.  
  3202. Then it was a rich fella, nurturned with wealth, fine food and clothing before making his way to Agartha - betrayed by his own gods and beliefs, sent into a rippling point of emotional damage and madness; met his end at the blade of someone wicked - someone too pride for their own good.
  3203.  
  3204. Both of the lives he'd witnessed flash before his very eyes were not his to live - but somehow he felt a strong connection. Was he both of those men once before?
  3205.  
  3206. Guatemoc knew not how to deal with such emotions overflowing him; all of them seemed filled with hatred and anger and so did his own memories of this world. Pain - bitterness - hatred. They all played a big part of his own survival.
  3207.  
  3208. Revenge. It dragged his soul back.
  3209.  
  3210. Anger. It held his mind in one piece.
  3211.  
  3212. Bitterness. It wouldn't let go.
  3213.  
  3214. All of those emotions held him together for so long - they were not about to get rid of him just yet - not now - not ever.
  3215. (Guatemoc)
  3216. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3217.  
  3218. [19:57:00] The beats was powerful, and beat every one of them back several times, but yet they did not die, they were not pulled from their world. It was as if they were attached so much that the being before them could not get what it wanted. Their spirits.
  3219.  
  3220. It began to slowly disappear, leaving only a few words behind. That the spirits were angry with them. After that it would fully disappear, but she didn't feel right after that. She didn't feel like she was fully there, like she wasn't attached to her physical form.
  3221.  
  3222. "What... the hell."
  3223.  
  3224. That's all she'd really say at the moment. She wasn't much of a help in the fight against the creature, no matter how much she struggled against it. Her power wasn't enough to make much of a difference at the moment, and that would frustrate her.
  3225.  
  3226. She wanted to be stronger, but every encounter she faced she was pushed back, and the fact that she was weak was thrown right into her face and smashed into it. The blows hit her hard, and only angered her, and frustrated her. She was just getting out of the rut she was in, and yet she was back into it.
  3227. (Chitli)
  3228. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3229.  
  3230. [19:57:00] As the behemoth of a Demon dropped to his knees. He felt... Different. Vastly different. Something was not right... He looked around him, and saw... Darkness. And in the centre of it? A figure... A Neries wearing a mask resembling a Crow. The vision faded quickly and when Malgannan opened his eyes it was clear he was not the only one feeling ''off''.
  3231.  
  3232. Something was very, very wrong. Malgannan was not sure what was wrong exactly yet, but it wasn't good. That much was certain. He slowly gets up, sheathing his halberd and retreats to the edges of Ezmara to think and reflect. In solitude.
  3233. (Malgannan)
  3234. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3235.  
  3236. [19:57:00] Rothraim's power began to fluxiate as he saw the spirit...or perhaps wraith fade away his injuries slashing away with his blade and making sure to avoid the powerful death he emitted with Lightning and bolts of Hellstorm magic that tore down the heavens and slashed the creature with incredible force.
  3237.  
  3238. However Rothraim's soul felt detatched like it did when cho wanted to experiment on him. His connection tohis body was loose and he figred he would need some time to meditate and control it. He could tell he wasn't the only one who suffered from this though others around him felt similar ..
  3239. (Rothraim)
  3240. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3241.  
  3242. [19:57:00] The spirits were angry, whatever that meant.
  3243.  
  3244. And at first, Esperite got off easy! Got off thinking he had done quite well, really, in the grand scheme of things- young fae, barely trained, only getting hit a few times? Perfect performance, as far as he was concerned.
  3245.  
  3246. ... But the lingering feelings of dread surely rotted away at that confidence. His ego turned to dust and it was immediately resolidified with strange feelings that, while Esperite understood them to be utterly artificial, couldn't be shaken off.
  3247.  
  3248. Feelings that he'd have to excise later, probably. Feelings he'd have to dissect and more carefully remove if he sought to be free.
  3249.  
  3250. For a moment or two, he writhes internally- only once his 'spirit rot' finds itself firmly placed does Esperite manage to rise back to his hovering 'feet', lingering back toward Shan and Paprika with the singular goal of finding out whether or not this was a 'him' thing or an 'everyone' thing.
  3251.  
  3252. "H- Holy..." he murmured, rubbing his head. "Was that just me, or- what?"
  3253. (Esperite)
  3254. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3255.  
  3256. [19:57:52] Dreadful, absolutely dreadful; from the moment everything and anything kicked off, Xitlalli could feel it. Not so unfamiliar to the dance, something a lot more selfish and vindictive it were; the Spirits are angry with them all, to which the dancer felt disheartened to hear that.
  3257.  
  3258. Had her performance not been adequate? Did she not take Zahhual's teachings to heart, had they not performed enough sacrifices -- why were they angry?!
  3259.  
  3260. But then it dawned upon her as she clattered down to the ground, unable to keep herself up for much long as that oppressive, ripping and tearing sensation braced her back; it wanted what she served and more importantly, she was sure that this feeling of uneasiness could be traced back to the swamps.
  3261.  
  3262. "She can't have? Impossible- Agh!"
  3263.  
  3264. "Stop. Stop damnit.", like it or not, the grasp of this creature was plagued, it's aura's metaphorical claws digging into the flesh of all those around including Xitlalli, as it tried to tug and pull mercilessly, only to leave infections within its place. For Xitlalli this was most grave. Spirit Rot, something which was going to affect her quite deeply.
  3265.  
  3266. "I feel awful, absolutely awful.", the woman whines out, pulling herself up after a while; she didn't quite feel like her own self, almost as if her body wasn't her own. Each shift of the leg, the sway of arms, the bobbing of one's head, the flick of an eye. It all felt vaguely foreign, somewhat new to her.
  3267.  
  3268. Was she even here to begin with, or was this even real.
  3269.  
  3270. "I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't.", panicky and confused, the young dancer aimed to stagger away from the square, to try and make end's meet of it all.
  3271. (Xitlalli)
  3272. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3273.  
  3274. [19:57:52] Imra'el says, "Atl, we should... gather home."
  3275. [19:57:52] Malachai says, "...Yes... s-soon... i need to recollect myself..."
  3276. [19:57:52] Hototo says, "Malachai..."
  3277. [19:57:52] Malachai says, "...i see... strange things..."
  3278. [19:58:43] Hototo says, "I think I might, like..."
  3279. [19:58:43] LOOC - Malgannan: [i assume these visions you see are of characters you rebirthed? Since you know.. It kinda makes sense if your new character has the same soul
  3280. [19:58:43] But that magic was powerful, even with a Spirit-trained Magi like Atla still had some effect, memories of all her training began to go through her mind, her entire spiritual journey, everything that had happened.
  3281.  
  3282. It only lasted for about a minute until he fully recovered.
  3283.  
  3284. "What was this thing?"
  3285. (Atla-Cuauhtli)
  3286. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3287.  
  3288. [19:58:43] Hototo says, "Be temporarily blind."
  3289. [19:58:43] LOOC - Rothraim: [yeah
  3290. [19:59:34] Hototo exclaims, "Those blasts hit like a boulder!"
  3291. [19:59:34] Malachai says, "It feels.. like i have something... rotting inside me.."
  3292. [19:59:34] Slowly, Noxim began piecing together the shattered portions of his husk, fingers slowly jamming together shards of wood and bark into clumps of mud. The powerful Lich had decimated the crowd, nearly slaying the lot of them more than a handful of times amidst the carnage. The demon oft found himself righting fallen adventurers, seeking to provide some measure of assistance amidst the chaos.
  3293.  
  3294. Pressing the clumped splinters against his husk, the demon gradually continued to repair the wooden frame with slow and deliberate motions. With due time, the mud would dry...and yet, for now the creature would have to find himself comfortable with the patchwork job for now, if at all.
  3295.  
  3296. Wordlessly, he approached the mass amidst the crowd, a thin-laced frown present beneath his mask. The strangely awkward sensation wracking his mind was unfamiliar, his inner confidence momentarily shaken amidst the madness.
  3297.  
  3298. "Noxim disagrees with theHoly man. If destroy Heart, will likely make curse permanent. Would be best if used to cure curse. Noxim is willing to assist."
  3299. (Noxim Florus)
  3300. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3301.  
  3302. [19:59:34] LOOC - Noxim Florus: (Holy man*)
  3303. [19:59:34] It was never ending- or so it felt. The constant pull on her soul was devastating. It was unlike anything she had ever felt before and she dreaded it, and it was for that reason alone she chose to fight to live another day. That anger boiled and made her flames burn brighter.
  3304.  
  3305. But it eventually came to an end. The spirits were angry? She knew not what that meant, nor did she care to reflect on it.
  3306.  
  3307. There was a newfound feeling boiling inside of her and it was one she could've done without. Fear? Regret? Regret over what, exactly? Something gnawed at her from within. Paranoia?
  3308.  
  3309. She sneered, floating quickly over to Esperite to check on his condition before looking towards wherever the hell Shan had landed. "Esperite, Shan-" she pauses, fluttering higher to try and scout out their newfound friend "-are you both okay?"
  3310. (Paprika)
  3311. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3312.  
  3313. [19:59:34] Hototo says, "Huh..."
  3314. [19:59:34] An extremely hard battle, Nochte and a bunch of others would almost die, but with the unity of everyone the fight was ended.
  3315.  
  3316. The body of the creature, the strange power, the feeling of his soul begin almost teared apart from the magic of the creature, he just wanted to live on the fight, getting a taste of it, feeling pleasure while fighting.
  3317.  
  3318. Using mana was hard with the wound he had from the raid, he tried to stay back rewinding time, trying to help others, trying to protect himself. Seeing the creature fall he looked at it happily.
  3319.  
  3320. His desire for recognition, his honor, the desire to revenge Saida, with those emotions held him, the hatred towards Jiangu and even to himself after losing so many times on the war, the shame he felt, a desire to redeem himself.
  3321.  
  3322. Leaning towards the rock wall, he stayed there trying to held himself up, not falling from the pain, he gazed at each other of his brothers from gehenna.
  3323. (Nochte)
  3324. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3325.  
  3326. [19:59:34] LOOC - Malachai: (( does hatsune have the core or who does? ))
  3327. [20:00:25] Harima looks about at the battered and bruised warriors standing around the lich. He walks close to Maiya unsure of what exactly the being was.
  3328. (Harima Ouji)
  3329. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3330.  
  3331. [20:00:25] LOOC - Chitli: (hatsu does)
  3332. [20:00:25] LOOC - Hatsune Panic: ((I was not handed said core.))
  3333. [20:00:25] ... She is drawn. Not here at first, yet drawn. Her, a marker and a victim of corruption drawn likely towards the ire of what afflicted her.
  3334.  
  3335. She had already felt this wrath.
  3336.  
  3337. That she comes when she does? Only further, will it cement her punishment, her foolishness, her carelessness. She witnesses it now, upon her people as a whole, a wide brooch of destruction and suffering that she has not assuaged, she has not calmed.
  3338.  
  3339. She has witness it escape, and quickly, to this destructive point. And there is nothing she can do. Her hand is raised, in desperate, instinctive defense with sharp magics, but they have all already suffered too much, and she is no beast of legend to be anything but just another effort upon many-- and many more valiant than she can offer, as well. She is no warrior, no hero. She is one of many, who will suffer further now because of the result of the actions taken that cannot not be undone.
  3340.  
  3341. But hers will be worse, because this is not the first touch for her. Not the first corrupting unnaturality. It would have been better, perhaps, had she not come at all. Had she... allowed, whatever was to befall simply to. But it is not her nature, conflictions and all, to let her people suffer while she stands idly by, if there is instead even an ounce of suffering she can burden on their behalf.
  3342.  
  3343. It will burn her. When the lich begins to falter, to dissipate. She is left with rot, as all who have come into contact today with this being. Deep. Dark. Twisted. Merciless.
  3344.  
  3345. She is left, heavily lent on the temple, most of her lax, legs locked to hold her upright. All the shadows at her throat, dancing across her skin. The outlines are like crawling needles, pricking to draw blood, yet she does not bleed, and the pain instead dances. Painful, but moreso so incredibly uncomfortable that it leads into mind-numbing sensory overload.
  3346. (Navi)

  3348.  
  3349. [20:00:25] LOOC - Malachai: (( good. she deserved it most in my opinion ((
  3350. [20:00:25] LOOC - Maiya Vindict: (theres no item for it)
  3351. [20:00:25] LOOC - Malachai: (( ohh ))
  3352. [20:00:25] LOOC - Maiya Vindict: (its just fluff)
  3353. [20:00:25] The danger had passed, he relaxed his muscles and slowly made his energy wing on his right shoulder begin to disappear, the massive, dense energy returning into Atla, he returned to cover the rune on his shoulder with the cape.
  3354.  
  3355. He just watched the whole square, trying to see what would happen now.
  3356. (Atla-Cuauhtli)
  3357. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3358.  
  3359. [20:01:16] LOOC - Narrator: (I'm waiting for most people to leave before giving it over
  3360. [20:01:16] ...so they were.
  3361.  
  3362. Kayeliun ran at the beast over and over again, chaotic energies launching her into the air and sending a spiral of telekinetic force forward to shove the beast away from her. It was a long-fought battle, and even the Chieftess and her immense amounts of stamina couldn't hold out much longer.
  3363.  
  3364. It came at her and she ran, firing burst after burst of telekinetic energies until it burned her from the inside- and she screamed, one echo of sound against the cacophony of noise filling her poor Cruxati square. Shaking her head, she clawed at the ground and shook to her feet, wings snapping outstretched as she unsteadily burst free of whatever had been holding her.
  3365.  
  3366. The energy from the best was abnormal.
  3367.  
  3368. Wings beating heavily, energy strained, Kayeliun landed at the feet of the beast just as it disintigrated. She felt dizzy- uneasy, unsteady, but...
  3369.  
  3370. ...the feelings that suddenly burst into her heart, they weren't anything she was unfamiliar with.
  3371.  
  3372. She'd already known she was what was wrong with the world. She saw it everyday in Atro's dead eyes.
  3373.  
  3374. So she shook the curse back into the locked boxes of her mind and intercepted Kaschei before he could fully lunge for the core to destroy it. Glancing at Noxim, who had done a similar thing, the Chieftess staggered unsteadily up to her full, albeit unimpressive, height, and nodded.
  3375.  
  3376. "...yes. Hatsune, take the core. We'll need to study it. You--" she eyed Kaschei, still breathing hard, "-don't interfere. We need to figure out what this thing was- if it was truly a spirit, or a result of whatever Zahhual...."
  3377.  
  3378. She breathed in, and shook her head.
  3379.  
  3380. "No. Pick up the core, Hatsune."
  3381. (Kayeliun)
  3382. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3383.  
  3384. [20:01:16] Toka fought her best against the beast, even having to wrap herself tightly in a layer of water to try and heal her injuries. And unlike X'thon, she didn't go down at all during the fight. And when the creature went down, when it disintegrated into pure mana. Leaving just a core behind. Well, needless to say. Something was wrong, it felt like she was connected to it. She didn't like it at all.
  3385.  
  3386. And when it ended? She felt...empty inside. Like she wasn't herself. It just, it didn't feel right. She didn't feel right, she was the issue. She was not right. The water didn't fade like normal, it just dropped all around her. Splashing and leaving a mark.
  3387.  
  3388. Staring down at her hands, clearly lost in thought. Or she thought she was. She wasn't sure anymore.
  3389. (Toka)
  3390. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3391.  
  3392. [20:01:16] Malachai says, "Yes.. pick it up.. i am leaving... if you mind i would like to see it when possible.."
  3393. [20:01:16] LOOC - Malachai: (( lets leave guys so the narrator can give it ))
  3394. [20:02:08] LOOC - Maiya Vindict: (theres no actual item dude)
  3395. [20:02:08] LOOC - Kaschei: (okay see you guys later)
  3396. [20:02:08] LOOC - Maiya Vindict: (its fluff)
  3397. [20:02:08] The battle is long, raging, and the teen truly cannot contribute much; with Citlalli focussing on his daemon taming skills rather than magic in truth, he stands far back..
  3398.  
  3399. Unfortunately, however, close enough to be afflicted. As they manage to beat the lich into defeat, the creature's parting words sting at the boy's mind-- the spirits, angered with them..?
  3400.  
  3401. He did not understand.
  3402.  
  3403. As he makes his way towards Olander, the teen can only whisper-- aside from the tattering and mild destruction of his clothing, there wasn't any major damage to him. Perhaps a result of his cowardice..
  3404.  
  3405. Quickly, however, he would grab the hand of his companion and begin to leave to Ezmara.
  3406. (Citlalli)
  3407. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3408.  
  3409. [20:02:59] LOOC - Noxim Florus: (I'm here, 'cause IC interest in status of the core, is all.)
  3410. [20:02:59] Hatsune looked down at the core- Oh, yes... She was standing right there. When did she stop and stare off into space? Well, that's not a good thing. Regardless, she reached down to wrap her rubbery hands (covered in a quickly produced handcloth) around the core. She was still exploding with holy energy, though... So hopefully, she didn't damage it and it didn't damage her.
  3411. (Hatsune Panic)
  3412. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3413.  
  3414. [20:03:50] There had been dire consequences in the aftermath of this battle-
  3415.  
  3416. And Shan had drawn the short end of the stick. No, he'd stabbed his hand into a box of glass shards, stirred it around a bit, and then pulled out utter misfortune.
  3417.  
  3418. The decaying magic the being had afflicted upon his spirit- the connection between consciousness and soul- carried with it severe side effects, things that make Shan briefly slip in and out of his awareness itself. All six senses- magic included- were thrown for a loop as memories of something bygone flicker into sight in his mind's eye.
  3419.  
  3420. The Sheng warrior has an urge to scream, but he composes himself with gritting teeth, to the point that his gums bleed.
  3421.  
  3422. A trickle of blood runs down one side of his mouth. The molten shell that covered him crumbled apart like a broken sculpture, shattering and peeling off his form like a second layer of skin.
  3423.  
  3424. He looks to the two fairies that he'd accompanied into the square- but he does not hold his gaze for long before he has to kneel and palm the ground, using the other hand to cover his mouth.
  3425.  
  3426. It was the urge to retch. Something disgusting and vile had coated his insides, foul and repulsing.
  3427.  
  3428. The veins at his neck bulged as he fought back against the spiritual rot that disengaged his mental with the physical, pulling him through the mud of multiple lives, sticking to his spirit and soul like an acidic adhesive.
  3429.  
  3430. It BURNED, but he was physically fine.
  3431.  
  3432. Deep breaths. He looks to Paprika as she asks for their status, panting. "I am alive, at least."
  3433. (Shan Baiyan)
  3434. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3435.  
  3436. [20:03:50] With grace, the woman danced around the square. It was hard to imagine that she moved so fluidly with the likes of that monstrous sword in her hands. Even then, she'd shift, moving and aiming to make sure people would be picked up and thrust back into the battle. She'd make sure-- as any combat medic would have-- that people would be able to fight on further into the battle.
  3437.  
  3438. The tug and pull on her spirit, though...
  3439.  
  3440. The dark sensation within...?
  3441.  
  3442. It's only momentarily that she pauses, staring forward in a bleak way.
  3443.  
  3444. Remember how you felt before...?
  3445.  
  3446. Twisting on her legs, she would soon glance toward Karma, adjusting her glasses after a moment.
  3447.  
  3448. "...Hey," it's called outwards in a lofty way as she moves forward, fingers coming upwards to touch against his solar plexus. "Long time no see."
  3449.  
  3450. It's odd, almost like--
  3451.  
  3452. Well, like she was dancing through the eerie memories that had long since past and actually living them out once more. Then, she shakes her head to clear out the odd memories, the odd sensations.
  3453.  
  3454. "Ahnn, Karma?"
  3455.  
  3456. There was a lot wrong here, and her head was muddled harsher than it had ever been before. "This is weird, I feel like I've...--" Seen you before? One of her hands touches against her face as she tries to collect herself in the aftermath there.
  3457. (Maiya Vindict)
  3458. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3459.  
  3460. [20:04:41] Noxim Florus says, "Heart is intact, curse still present...Yes, Is strange. Will have to get used to strangeness."
  3461. [20:04:41] For a moment he felt as though all hope was lost, no matter how many attacks he threw towards the being it seemed to do nothing, his strongest attacks working in conjunction with many of his other tribesmen and women seemingly doing nothing as it continued to unleash a miasma of devastating occultic energy.
  3462.  
  3463. 'What does it take...' he slowly began becoming battered and bruised by this... thing, and the longer the fight went on the more he felt his true self being tugged and ripped out from within him, nothing physical but it did feel rather spiritual...
  3464.  
  3465. The creature stopped, halting it's movements before slowly disappearing in a similar fashion that it had come in. Hue still hadn't been convinced that the creature was defeated and as such he was heavily on guard preparing for any acts of deception, they never came, shifting and distorting itself until it had fully been gone from this plain. Though not before leaving them with a parting few words.
  3466.  
  3467. 'The spirits are angry with you'
  3468.  
  3469. The man attempted to motion his hand to his chin stroking it for a moment before letting it fall to his side, he had taken quite a beating during that fight and it was beginning to take its toll on him. He moved a gaze towards Sul before inquiring.
  3470.  
  3471. 'Are you alright?' Finding himself back at his comrade's side.
  3472. (Hue Coliqui)
  3473. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3474.  
  3475. [20:04:41] Anaxes says, "It is a... curious feeling, yes."
  3476. [20:05:32] Kayeliun says, "We'll need to determine whatever that thing was... I refuse to believe it speaks for the spirits...."
  3477. [20:05:32] Guatemoc says, "--"
  3478. [20:05:32] Hue Coliqui whispers something.
  3479. [20:06:24] Guatemoc asks, "Who... Am I?"
  3480. [20:06:24] Noxim Florus says, "Is many things can speak for."
  3481. [20:06:24] The Paladin fought with his own best behavior. The marble that surrounded him made sure to protect all those that it could, occasionally getting in the way of several strikes, or at least dampening the hits that the masses were supposed to suffer.
  3482.  
  3483. His holy magic encompassed not only himself, but Masika and Kaschei as well, in its more pure essence. It sought to transfer whatever impact they'd suffer to himself, and such was his burden. The Protective magic cast upon everyone that he could, Cullen would suffer most strikes instead of these two.
  3484.  
  3485. And whenever he could not bear to himself to help, he'd hurry to help the weak and the downed, getting the bodies back to the backlines and helping everyone up so they'd at least stay safe. The very minimum that he could do was that, before charging into battle, landing a few hits upon the skeletal lich.
  3486.  
  3487. And as such, he was one of the few that were not downed. Instead, realizing that it tugged at everyone's soul, he focused. The Paladin raised up his nyeshk sword to the skies, the fierce holy enchantment glowing within, as it expelled a powerful jolt of light, forming a sphere over his head.
  3488.  
  3489. And as such, he sought to transfer the burden from Kaschei and all those that he focused on protecting as much as he could. All those nearby, he sought to at least amenize the harm that they'd suffer with his own efforts. A very, very primitive form of the Zealous Guard that was formed around everyone, encompassing them with Marble, now exploded in a protective layer of holy magic, absorbing the impact and preventing their souls from being pulled away from their body as much as he could.
  3490.  
  3491. And as such, he was one of the last ones that stood tall against the creature. Affected, the holy-infused man looked at the defeated core, holding the nyeshk sword at his hand. The massive blade scattered across the ground, as his yellow irises focused against the core...
  3492.  
  3493. "This is not good." He scowled slightly. His being was not only being consumed by the spirit rot of his own, but also those of others. He took upon himself to transfer the burden from others into him, and he regretted nothing -- Or maybe, deep down, now he did. He looked at his hands, seeking to see the yellow flourishing light...
  3494.  
  3495. And nothing came. Wielding the sword, he looked at Hatsune, still covered in crackling marble. "This is not good, right, Hatsune?"
  3496.  
  3497. There was one thing that differed greatly from how he usually was. The voice, filled with tranquility and serenity, as well as his gaze, seemed rather empty. His voice betrayed true emotions -- He was feeling, at the depth of his soul, desperate.
  3498. (Paladin)
  3499. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3500.  
  3501. [20:06:24] LOOC - Paladin: (aw dang)
  3502. [20:06:24] LOOC - Shan Baiyan: (nice color)
  3503. [20:06:24] Guatemoc was so distorted by the immense surge of memories flowing in from one life to the other - losing the identity of one's self.
  3504. (Guatemoc)
  3505. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3506.  
  3507. [20:07:15] Guatemoc says, "-.."
  3508. [20:08:06] LOOC - Paladin: (f)
  3509. [20:08:06] LOOC - Harima Ouji: (why dont we have a monster dictionary of all the being we've faught with words.*
  3510. [20:08:06] LOOC - Erenan Qi: (q?)
  3511. [20:08:06] Toka would slowly waddled her way off.
  3512. (Toka)
  3513. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3514.  
  3515. [20:08:06] LOOC - Esperite: (oh)
  3516. [20:08:06] LOOC - Esperite: (i'll reply after paprika)
  3517. [20:08:57] Her body hurt- holy fuck she didn't like these giant monstrosities capable of spewing out occultic magic like no other. Her body felt torn and broken, and yet it functioned just fine, able to keep up the fight that didn't seem to want to end...
  3518.  
  3519. Until it finally did. The pain reverberated down beyond her body, to something deeper. Something wrong, intrinsic to herself. She felt so...
  3520.  
  3521. Well, distant.
  3522.  
  3523. White-noise filtered through, unable to hear those around. Confusion, body glancing around but eyes looking inward. What the hell was this feeling, the leech on her own soul?
  3524.  
  3525. And it came roaring back, forced down for a long moment. Enough to force herself to her feet, glancing around, focusing to Kayeliun, to Hatsune, to the core.
  3526.  
  3527. And slowly, she began to walk over, staff used unceremoniously as a walking stick.
  3528. (Xoconan)
  3529. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3530.  
  3531. [20:08:57] Sul'Koth watched the dispersement of the Lich's form as a rift within his heart peeled away the layers of his daily life struggles; Striking him at his core and searing the thought of why they had all come here. The Spire Shards.
  3532.  
  3533. When his comrade and friend spoke to him, the feeling of soreness in his hand surprised himself to find he was clutching his heart.
  3534.  
  3535. "I-" His voice fading as the crowd spoke in their own responses, some leaving quickly and their numbers dispersing from the courtyard.
  3536.  
  3537. He'd snap out of it-
  3538. Eyes focusing on the destroyed bricks and stones, singed, frozen- leftovers from the battle.
  3539. "-Yes. Let's head out, yeah?" His head turned to lay eyes on Hue, nodding it in a bob a single time.
  3540. (Sul'Koth)
  3541. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3542.  
  3543. [20:09:48] LOOC - Cocinar: (Is this really still happening? I didn't know events lasted this long)
  3544. [20:09:48] LOOC - Cocinar: (Sorry for leaving X_X)
  3545. [20:10:40] Zamura decided to leave the place.
  3546.  
  3547. The visions that plagued everything and everyone nearby were bound to be clearly unhealthy for anyone involved, and so the man decided it'd be best to avoid experiencing such a thing, instead going elsewhere.
  3548.  
  3549. Besides, the battle was over, and it's consequences are to be salvaged by the Gehennans.
  3550.  
  3551.  
  3552. (Zaruma)
  3553. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3554.  
  3555. [20:10:40] LOOC - Cocinar: (Erm... What? What I already allowed to leave?)
  3556. [20:11:31] LOOC - Cocinar: (I'm sorta new and got dragged into this, sorry X_X)
  3557. [20:11:31] LOOC - Hatsune Panic: ((You're gucci baby))
  3558. [20:11:31] Even as the seconds and minutes passed, that horrid feeling of paranoia and dread didn't go away. To top it all it all off, memories surged through her mind- memories seen through the eyes of someone that wasn't herself.
  3559.  
  3560. Sneering again, she did her best to ignore it, opting to distract herself one way or another. She flutters her wings, lifting herself into the air with the sole purpose of perching upon Shan's shoulder once again.
  3561.  
  3562. Only this time, she stretches out her arm, a tiny palm pressing against the side of his neck. Her ability to heal wasn't extraordinary, but it was still nothing to shirk off. It'd at least help a little.
  3563.  
  3564. "Alive is good. What of you, Esprite? You seem to be in one piece."
  3565. (Paprika)
  3566. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3567.  
  3568. [20:11:31] LOOC - Hatsune Panic: ((If you wanna dip, you can dip. Thanks for joining in!))
  3569. [20:11:31] LOOC - Noxim Florus: (It's fine.)
  3570. [20:11:31] LOOC - Cocinar: (Okay x-x thanks)
  3571. [20:11:31] LOOC - Noxim Florus: (Hell, I'm having to semi-afk while getting ready to cook dinner.)
  3572. [20:12:22] Hue begins to leave with his comrade in tow
  3573. (Hue Coliqui)
  3574. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3575.  
  3576. [20:12:22] LOOC - Noxim Florus: (I should've dipped a bit ago, but I'm selfish, and I want to wrap up my own end in this.)
  3577. [20:12:22] LOOC - Noxim Florus: (Because macguffin.)
  3578. [20:12:22] Nádúr weakly walked back to the usual area he went to when he wasn't training, or doing something of any significant measure. He looked upon the commotion "What the hell is going on here? I've never seen so many people crowded here at once.." he thought to himself as he clutched his wound to keep pressure on it.
  3579. (Nádúr )
  3580. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3581.  
  3582. [20:13:13] The spirits are angry with you.
  3583.  
  3584. Lotlhuitl's hair stood on end. Her tail, wrapped firmly around her waist, bristled. She was battered and burnt, as much struck by the stray energies by those who had fought the creature as the creature itself.
  3585.  
  3586. Truthfully, with one arm in a sling, she hadn't really been in much of a condition to be fighting in the first place. But still. She'd stood! Fought to protect Cruxati's territory. Fought to protect Agartha from the incursion of a wraith. Biting back the agony of having magic attempt to flow through the damaged mana circuits in her left arm, Lotlhuitl had got off at least two good bursts of lightning at the creature before, in the confusion, someone accidentally whacked her upside the head. And she went down. It was possibly Karma the first time. Still, she kept getting up. Getting up to be beaten back down.
  3587.  
  3588. A certain level of rage rose within her. In the end, that was the only thing which kept Lotlhuitl still getting to her feet. Anger. Anger that this creature would attack her home. Anger at her own inability to stop it.
  3589.  
  3590. Panting, doubled over in pain, Lotlhuitl had watched as the creature dissolved. And then her eyes had widened.
  3591.  
  3592. Memories. They weren't her own. Or were they? Lotlhuitl almost felt like she was watching herself from outside. Looking down upon her own body.
  3593.  
  3594. The Nagual magi found herself dry heaving. doubled over, to the side of the courtyard. She felt cold. Cold. Cold. But how? How could this be her fault? She had only ever acted with the spirits in mind! Well, mostly.
  3595.  
  3596. Shivering, Lotlhuitl had straightened, wiping tears from her eyes. Wordlessly, she attempted to pat Xitlalli on the back, before shifting closer to her Chieftess, the Chieftess Kayeliun, Xoconan and.. Hatsune, as the Sirenian picked the core up.
  3597.  
  3598. What were they going to do? The spirits were ANGRY. They had to do something, right?
  3599. (Lotlhuitl)
  3600. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3601.  
  3602. [20:14:04] LOOC - Guatemoc: (time for shleep
  3603. [20:14:04] Lotlhuitl whispers: ... perhaps we haven't been sacrificing enough..
  3604. [20:14:04] LOOC - Guatemoc: (thanks for the rp guys
  3605. [20:14:04] LOOC - Guatemoc: (good night
  3606. [20:14:04] LOOC - Cocinar: )brb)
  3607. [20:14:04] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (nw)
  3608. [20:14:04] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (im gonna relog)
  3609. [20:14:04] Massive, utter chaos. That's exactly what ensued and Karma felt his heart race faster with each passing moment. The cries of warriors was overshadowed by roars of magic as the entire square was engulfed within arcane arts. From flaring sparks to soothing waters to scorching flames-- everything was embraced within insanity.
  3610.  
  3611. Mages fell in masses as the abomination roared, sending waves of death crashing against their form--- a sickening, twisted feeling washing over those present and more than once the Chieftain found himself backing away, zipping as far away as he could to catch some fresh air. It was taxing--- every muscle ached, every bone in his body was hurting and the chill he felt was more than just unsettling.
  3612.  
  3613. Yet, he found himself diving in yet once again. In, burst of magic, then zipping back out. Between the flaring mana in the square and mages healing on the sidelines, the pattern was quite effective--- not for long, though. A soft gasp found itself escaping once the hulking monster suddenly appeared before him--- more than a single strike was enough to send Karma crashing into one of the trees.
  3614.  
  3615. Too taxing. His body almost felt broken-- the sight of lich moving in his direction, getting closer and he--- he couldn't get up--
  3616.  
  3617. He couldn't--
  3618.  
  3619. 'Don't be reckless.'
  3620.  
  3621. The voice is all too familiar as a hand would hoist him up--- though no words escape him, and neither does he look in her direction. The Ezmaran would nod before quickly zipping back towards the sidelines, letting the soothing waters embrace his body before chaos ensued once again.
  3622.  
  3623. Attack, retreat and then repeat.
  3624.  
  3625. Only Ixchel knows how long it stayed that way but...
  3626.  
  3627. A soft, soft breath escapes him as the Chieftain would finally come to a halt by the temple stairs, yellow hues focused on the core which once was a hulking beast--- tuggingand pulling at their spirits. It was over... it had ended and yet--- and yet...
  3628.  
  3629. This feeling.
  3630.  
  3631. It was dreadful, dark and...
  3632.  
  3633. And so when Maiya approaches him, the Chieftain doesn't say anything. Blinking, he'd glance back at her with a look so dazed as if someone had cracked him on the skull.
  3634.  
  3635. "You..." it's hushed out, almost incoherent before he'd steady himself, adding. "...you alright?"

  3644. [20:19:12] Kayeliun says, "See if you can figure out what that thing is."
  3645. [20:20:54] Never once had she been befallen by the foul creature that attempted to rampage through them. There's a flicker of her eyes around, the displaced feeling, the misery that came along with You're the wrong of this world inside of her head as she blinked a few times.
  3646.  
  3647. Those few blinks allowed her to realize something-- She felt this way normally.
  3648.  
  3649. "I'm fine. I had to pick you up. You crashed into a tree, Karma." Her head cants off to the side, and she tries to focus a little better-- she can't. It's not stabilizing properly for her, and she knows it well.
  3650.  
  3651. "Come on. Let me check you over in the Farmstead, okay?"
  3652.  
  3653. There's a lulling motion as she parts her lips. The edges of her vision-- she could've sworn that old memories faded in, blending around, mixing, mingling... Yet, perhaps they were actually just visions. She didn't know anymore. At least they weren't death visions.
  3654.  
  3655. That much she was immensely thankful for.
  3656.  
  3657. An arm hooked around his as she pulled him along, not another word murmured all the while.

  3663. [20:20:54] "It is a disgusting feeling," Shan adds in response to Esperite's comment.
  3664.  
  3665. Paprika's little hand on the side of his neck evokes a sharp breath from the man- it was an euphoric breath, the sudden feeling of relief washing over him being too abrupt for him to calmly react. He manages to regain his breath, exhaling loudly once normalized.
  3666.  
  3667. "Thank you, Paprika."
  3668.  
  3669. The liar of warrior is sincere in his tone, the stern look on his face softening a little as he watches the fairy that harnessed similar elements as he.
  3670.  
  3671. He looks to Esperite.
  3672.  
  3673. "What do you feel? Think you can describe it-" Silver eyes roam back to Paprika. "You too. As for me, I feel... pain, suffering. A vision of dark times... but it is not me...? A woman...?"
  3674.  
  3675. The Sheng warrior sinks into silence, not registering anything for a second, falling into a deep stupor.

  3679. [20:20:54] Atro stands after the spams of tremors along his body, still sweating. Creeping closer to JaDrako he stares silently with dead blue eyes, uttering worst listlessly.

  3682.  
  3683. [20:21:45] Atro Gwyn asks, "Are you okay?"
  3684. [20:21:45] Lotlhuitl says, "... surely, it is an omen."
  3685. [20:21:45] Xoconan asks, "I'm- Kayeliun, do you need me?"
  3686. [20:22:36] Rothraim says, "Maiya. I have located the ingredients for that potion I asked of you."
  3687. [20:22:36] Maiya Vindict says, "I understand, but I do not have the capability to make it at the moment. I'm drained from the fight."
  3688. [20:22:36] LOOC - Esperite: (mastoz says his computer bluescreened)\
  3689. [20:23:28] LOOC - Maiya Vindict: (no energy)

  3691. [20:23:28] Rothraim says, "I see..well I suppose another time then."
  3692. [20:23:28] In turn the massive beast followed after Hatsune, arms folded calmly across his chest. The lingering sensation within his gut still remained, yet curiosity had taken hold, driving the beast forward, despite the emotional mire which threatened to drag his mind back under.
  3693.  
  3694. "Will do so. Is good news in matter, if is corrupted- Is Noxim. Will not suffer madness, like others. Will make sure all is safe, to try and fix." He rumbled in response, giving a brief nod in the Chieftess' direction as he continued forward.
  3695.  
  3696. Whatever that strange core was, he had been given the approval to help in its study, and the beast fully intended to do what it could; for better or worse.

  3698. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3699.  
  3700. [20:23:28] The Paladin's own holy aura still resonated along with hers. However, even if it still transmitted the same sensation of peace, the same sensation of hope, of valor... He was affected, and it seemed to be a losing battle that he was fighting.
  3701.  
  3702. He instantly turned around, looking for whatever wounded magi remained at the spot. Yellow irises would scan the environment, looking for any wounded that still remained in there. However, he had to give Hatsune a fair warning -- One that he knew that she already thought about, but he still had to say that.
  3703.  
  3704. "Hatsune." The yellow irises examined the shard. He nodded slightly towards her. If there was a single soul to which he trusted those, it'd be Hatsune. The marble surrounding slightly his body would erupt down, as his guard officially opened up as the core distanced itself in Hatsune's hand. "Be careful. Please."
  3705.  
  3706. He then sheathed the Nyeshk longsword, the yellow leylines that possessed it fading away slowly. This was a man affected by holy magic, which guided his hand and spirit. However, he was still affected. Having taken the hit for many was a burden that it appeared not only on his armor, but on the very skin buried underneath it.
  3707.  
  3708. "I'll look for the others. I believe... I believe I need to see what is this." He obviously did not refer to the core, but to himself.

  3752. [20:32:51] Xoconan rolls over, simply... Staring at nothing.
  3753. (Xoconan)

  3755.  
  3756. [20:33:42] Lotlhuitl asks, "What did you see?"
  3757. [20:33:42] Xoconan says, "Flashes of something... Death, so much death."
  3758. [20:34:33] Xoconan shivers on the ground as she zones out.

  3760. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3761.  
  3762. [20:36:16] Lotlhuitl pulled Xoconan closer. Lotlhuitl intended on letting Xoconan use her lap as a pillow, her long fluffy tail brushing against her.
  3763. (Lotlhuitl)
  3764. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3765.  
  3766. [20:36:16] Lotlhuitl says, "I saw.."

  3769. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3770.  
  3771. [20:36:16] Lotlhuitl says, "It doesn't matter what I saw."
  3772. [20:37:58] Lotlhuitl says, "Perhaps.. we should see about doing a purification ritual."
  3773. [20:37:58] Lotlhuitl says, "The creature's blood, it.. I feel like I am awash in it."
  3774. [20:39:40] She allowed herself to be pulled closer, but instead of laying her head in Lotlhuitls lap, actually forced herself up for a moment, enough to grab hold of the Naguals shoulders and pull her down to the ground, clutching her.
  3775.  
  3776. "Need... I need something to hold me here, I feel like I'm drifting away... I don't wanna drift, I'm *here*..." She wrapped her arms tighter around Lotlhuitl, eyes clenching shut.
  3777. (Xoconan)
  3778. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3779.  
  3780. [20:51:37] Lotlhuitl stiffened, surprised. Xoconan pulled her to the ground. Or.. really, pushed. The Nagual hadn't resisted, though, it was with incredible awkwardness that she found herself patting Xoconan gently on the back, as the other, slightly shorter, woman lay atop her.
  3781.  
  3782. She knew what Xoconan meant. Well, understood. But.. in a way, Lotlhuitl found herself torn. The visions were terrifying. But. They were a view of a homeland she had never seen. That she would never see. That she had such a terrible longing for.
  3783.  
  3784. "You're here." Lotlhuitl breathed, her hand movement changing from an awkward stiff pat to resting against the small of Xoconan's back.
  3785.  
  3786. Her soul ached.
  3787.  
  3788. As did her body, physically, for that matter. She'd been beaten up (again!) in that fight. Lotlhuitl wriggled under Xoconan, wincing, as she attempted to get the other woman to rest upon her in a more.. comfortable manner.
  3789.  
  3790. "Talk to me Xoco." She breathed. It was as much for her own benefit, as it was Xoconans. If.. if Lotlhuitl didn't speak, if she closed her eyes, she feared what lessons she might learn about her past self.
  3791.  
  3792. She feared what visions of war in Gehenna she might witness. What atrocities. Lotlhuitl thought she might have been witnessing glimmers of Azrael's attempt to subjugate Gehenna. And, perhaps protecting her own mind, she was doing her best not to thik about it.
  3793.  
  3794. "Tell me. Tell me about this piece of Agartha you want to claim."
  3795.  
  3796. (Lotlhuitl)
  3797. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3798.  
  3799. [20:59:18] She was silent, arms clutching and fingers tight enough to possibly bruise the Nagual, as if she never wanted to let go again.
  3800.  
  3801. "I'm..." She realized, somehow, that she was paining Lotlhuitl, and pushed herself up, just enough to allow her to readjust herself, fiddling with her own one-piece outfit as she did, before coming back down, lying halfway on her side and the other half leaning heavily on the Nagual.
  3802.  
  3803. "Just keep me here, don't let me go..." She sounded... Scared, as if the thought of vanishing to drift off terrified her. "Hate this, in the wrong body, wrong... Mind."
  3804.  
  3805. The question was barely processed. "Will..." She trailed off, dragging herself up so that her face was inches from Lotl's head, lips pressed to her ear, again fiddling with a strap on the outfit, as if it was digging into her skin.
  3806. (Xoconan)
  3807. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3808.  
  3809. [21:00:09] Xoconan whispers: "... I'm going to take a piece... Will be above others... Above this..."
  3810. [21:07:50] LOOC - Xoconan: (gotta afk for a bit)
  3811. [21:07:50] LOOC - Xoconan: (like 5-10)
  3812. [21:15:31] Corpses, corpses, as far as the eye could see. Walking. Marching. Forming the line. Crows circling overhead. The stench of death filled her lungs. It was a good day to be alive.
  3813.  
  3814. Lotlhuitl yelped as Xoconan's fingers accidentally found their way to grabbing hold of her useless left arm. The pain brought her back to herself, sharply. The woman stiffened, lips parting as she turned her face from the female-bodied Xoconan (who was curling herself around her, or so Lotl felt).
  3815.  
  3816. A shudder from the Nagual. And a shiver. She could feel Xoconan's lips against her fluffy ear. Her whisper tickled. The Nagual had tilted her head, exposing more of her slender neck to the other woman.
  3817.  
  3818. "Tell me about it." Lotlhuitl urged, her hand pressing against Xoconan's back with some urgency.. trailed upwards, entwined through her messy brown hair. Some pressure was applied, some encouragement, as the Nagual - despite herself! - found herself trying to keep Xoconan close. "I've got you."

  3824.  
  3825. [22:12:41] "Ah... Sorry..." She muttered, recognizing the yelp from Lotl, realizing where her own hand was. A quick motion removed it, and she found her position, still shifting uncomfortably every few seconds, scratching at herself.
  3826.  
  3827. "I'm tired of all this... Everything. The tribes fighting each other, the idiocy of Jianghu or Valmasia." She continued to speak softly into the Naguals ear, leaning her head forward to tap it against the side of Lotlhuitl's head.
  3828.  
  3829. "I- Fuck it, one second." After shifting again, the pushed herself up for a moment, separating herself from the Nagual. In a smooth motion, her shirt came up, and off, tossed aside with no care. "I have wanted to do that for almost a year now... Helps me feel... Like me, like I should be..." She muttered, leaning back in and recovering the position without a care.
  3830.  
  3831. "Will be others like me, I'm sure. I was born here, on Agartha..." As one hand clutched, the other searched for the ever-present tail to assault.

  3837.  
  3838. [22:36:35] Lotlhuitl was like a finely crafted blade, in more ways than one.
  3839.  
  3840. Her wit was sharp. Savage. She viewed herself as someone who, no matter whether they were aiming to defend, or attack, they would always find themselves drawing blood. And if someone happened to be foolish enough to grasp at her, they'd come away worse for wear.
  3841.  
  3842. At least, that was how she had viewed herself. Though, somehow, now? At this moment? She felt like her sharp edges had been worn off. Or.. at least sheathed away.
  3843.  
  3844. Lotlhuitl closed her parted lips. No comment to be made. If Xoconan wanted to be topless, well. What could she say? Trembling, that hand resumed its position, stroking Xoconan's back. Her fingers met the metal prosthetic. Felt it click and shift beneath her fingertips.
  3845.  
  3846. "I was born here, on Agartha, too." Lotlhuitl said, her voice quiet. It was possibly the most she had ever spoken about herself or her history, really, to Xoconan. And she was doing it while blushing intensely, expression awkward and body stiff next to the younger woman. The younger, cute woman. Lolthuitl certainly had certain.. tastes. And while she wasn't one to indulge, there was a certain electric feeling to having your skin pressed up against another. In
  3847.  
  3848. Her fluffy ear flicked as Xoconan leant against Lotl, breath obviously tickling her. She shifted, going back to awkwardly patting Xoconan's back, tension rising within her. Heck.. the odd flicker of electricity -- surely harmless to Xoconan! -- accidentally rolled over Lotl's skin, especially where Xoconan was leaning against her.
  3849.  
  3850. "I.. I think what is required is action. If everyone who felt the same as you, as I.. as.. us, if they joined us, we could leave the rest of the rabble behind to just squabble amongst themselves. We could build something truly amazing. We could.. save Gehenna. But.. we could save Agartha, too."

  3856. [22:37:26] LOOC - Xoconan: (Tree is hiding it)
  3857. [22:37:26] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (hah ok)
  3858. [22:47:40] She seemed far more comfortable than Lotlhuitl, as if the change in clothing, or rather the lack-of, didn't matter at all. She seemed completely and utterly shameless, and more relaxed as well.
  3859.  
  3860. "Ah..." She muttered, feeling the sparks. Harmless, yes, but they certainly sent tingles through her skin. A small smile cracked, as she felt herself forcibly pulling herself back together. "What's wrong? I thought we'd gotten past touching..." Her clutching hand would suddenly cover in sparks, just as harmless, but enough to tingle where she touched.
  3861.  
  3862. "I'm going to keep Gehenna safe, no matter what it takes, no matter what I have to do..." She said, never pulling her face away from Lotlhuitls ear. "You could be there with me..."
  3863.  
  3864. She leaned in, suddenly nipping at the ear, a gleam to her eye.
  3865. (Xoconan)
  3866. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3867.  
  3868. [22:48:32] Xoconan whispers: "As my equal... What *we* could do..."
  3869. [23:08:09] Lotlhuitl found herself regarding Xoconan as she snuggled against her. Green eyes briefly skimming across the stronger and younger woman's body as that hand of hers gave up its patting, and instead aimed to press Xoco against her. At least, for a moment.
  3870.  
  3871. Then Xoconan was pulling away, and Lotlhuitl found herself releasing her... then just lying there, tense. Or.. perhaps visibly nervous? Tail twitching, batting.. brushing up against the outside of Xoconan's thigh.
  3872.  
  3873. It wasn't at all the fact that Xoconan wasn't wearing much. In truth, she couldn't exactly judge. She, herself, was most comfortable wearing as little as possible what with the jungle heat and humidity. But then, there was 'wasn't wearing much,' and 'cute girl topless and snuggling up to you' -- the former, she wouldn't have bat an eyelash at. The later? Well, Lotlhuitl was finding it hard to think about what Xoconan was saying.. and rather, was finding herself focusing on how she was saying it. How her grasp felt. The sparks lightly shocking and tingling her flesh, making her involuntarily twitch in Xoconan's grasp.
  3874.  
  3875. "Could be?" Lotlhuitl had exhaled, making an effort to engage with the conversation. "In what world wouldn't I be?" Lotlhuitl had squirmed slightly at that, at.. Xoconan's mentioning of being her equal. At what they could do. Oh, Lotlhuitl could imagine very well what they could do.
  3876.  
  3877. Corpses. Marching. Undead. Corruption. Anger. Blood. Death.
  3878.  
  3879. Lotlhuitl drew cold.
  3880.  
  3881. Really. What was the matter? Lotlhuitl forced herself to compose herself. Right as Xoconan's lips brushed against her ear. Right as she felt teeth. "Ah," Lotlhuitl had exhaled in surprise, feeling colour flush to her cheeks.
  3882.  
  3883. And with that, the Nagual panicked. "Nn!" She hissed, her voice high pitched and frantic. Automatically, without thought, she broke free of Xoconan. Abandoning her warmth, and the warmth of her cloak.
  3884.  
  3885. "I.. I.. I'm not some deviant, Xoconan. Really." Lotlhuitl protested, her cheeks bright red, arms crossed in front of her chest.

  3897. [23:25:13] LOOC - Lotlhuitl: (haha, thanks. I should've wrote attempted aha.)
  3898. [23:27:47] It was clear her mood was improving for the moment, as she did more things she could consider, well... *Her*. She had other lives, but who in her past lives ran shirtless without care? Who had harassed a Nagual like Lotlhuitl?
  3899.  
  3900. She found herself drawn back by things that were herself, that she couldn't relate to these past memories. "So get strong enough to earn a place at my side, not..."
  3901.  
  3902. A frown crossed her lips as Lotl pulled away, her grip absolutely maintaining itself, gravity assisting. Much as the Nagual wanted to pull away, Xoconan refused to let her go, not without a struggle.
  3903.  
  3904. "It's not being a deviant... I'm not my Mom, a literal embodiment of it..." Her sparking hand continued to press against her, now sharing heat from her own fiery aura.
  3905.  
  3906. "But... What's the harm...?" She asked, an actual sliver of fear in it. She didn't want Lotlhuitl to go, to run away... She'd be alone again, to face her cursed self. "You seem to like it..."
  3907. (Xoconan)
  3908. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3909.  
  3910. [23:51:40] Lotlhuitl had stared at Xoconan, more sounds of protest rolling from her lips as she struggled against the gravity magic holding her in place. As she struggled against Xoconan's grip.
  3911.  
  3912. She visibly and audibly struggled with what to say as Xoconan spoke. Told her that it wasn't deviancy. Failing to explain herself in any suitable manner, the Nagual tilted her face to the side. Finally breaking eye contact as her tail thrashed around.
  3913.  
  3914. What was the harm?
  3915.  
  3916. Why did being touched bother her?
  3917.  
  3918. She wasn't in control.
  3919.  
  3920. "You're mistaken," she lied. Oh, how she lied. And that, in itself, terrified her. Lotlhuitl didn't know how to deal with the realisation that she perhaps liked Xoconan stroking her tail. That she liked him annoying her. And so, she defaulted back to old habits. Anger.
  3921.  
  3922. "I challenge you to an honour duel, Xoconan."
  3923.  
  3924. Lotlhuitl exhaled, feeling the anger rise up from the pit of her stomach. "Get. Off. Of. Me."
  3925. (Lotlhuitl)
  3926. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3927.  
  3928. [23:55:56] With those spoken words- she just... Let go. Monster that she was, she hadn't planned on doing that to Lotlhuitl... And yet, she wanted to. Her arms released the Nagual as she slowly pushed herself up, standing barely clothed before the Nagual, and then not standing at all.
  3929.  
  3930. "Terms...?" She asked, softly, a very real pang of disappointment in her voice. "I've told you before, I don't do honor duels lightly... If I'm putting something up, you will too."
  3931.  
  3932. Her eyes hardened ever so slightly, fists clenching. She hadn't even retrieved her staff.
  3933. (Xoconan)
  3934. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3935.  
  3936. [23:56:48] LOOC - Xoconan: (Follow me)
  3937. [23:56:48] LOOC - Xoconan: (Can lead to a better arena)
