  10.  
  11. [9:48][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Darling] *His eyes went wide as he looked around at the tropical world as though he'd just hit the jackpot.
  12.  
  13. [9:48][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:"I guess it was a portal.
  14.

  24.  
  25. [9:50][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Strange. I would expect a welcoming party, were this where they went...

  27. [9:50][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*He went to look at the sky.* "Captain? Can you tell where.... and when we are?
  28.  
  29. [9:50][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"I doubt anyone knows we are here.
  30.  
  31. [9:50][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:**The mural is there for Ettore to touch, however it showing an alternate variatio nof it, where nearly all has been devour by the black hole, there being only heaven and the void, the lake and

  36.  
  37. [9:51][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "Well.. that looks pleasant.
  38.  
  39. [9:51][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"likily some significance to that..
  40.  
  41. [9:51][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:Well it isn't showing paradise being devoured. Perhaps a remebrance
  42.  
  43. [9:52][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:or sign post

  50.  
  51. [9:52][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "Well, whatever it is, this tower's gotta have an entrance." *She looked around.
  52.  
  53. [9:52][DOIC1]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li checks his person for a tricorder.
  54.  
  55. [9:52][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Pats himself down for his stuff.
  56.  
  57. [9:52][DOIC1]Istrin@the5of43:*Istrin looked about, poking to see if the presence he felt earlier was around
  58.  
  59. [9:52][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:**Li finds a tricorder that refuses to start.*
  60.  
  61. [9:53][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:*he checked his commbadge
  62.  
  63. [9:53][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Let's see i we can enter the tower.
  64.  
  65. [9:53][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:**Anyone looking for their technical equipment finds it, and it does not start if it is complicated enough to rely on transistors or higher level of technology.*
  66.  
  67. [9:53][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"if nothing else we can go to the top and get a good look at the surrounding area.
  68.  
  69. [9:54][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Darling] *He stepped down from the platform and went to examine the plant life for anything familiar.
  70.  
  71. [9:54][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:*Sighs.* "Fun...
  72.  
  73. [9:54][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Technological equipment seems to not work.
  74.  
  75. [9:54][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Vaylith are you okay?
  76.  
  77. [9:55][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:*ragnar listens for any sign of wildlife
  78.  
  79. [9:55][DOIC1]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:I don't know the astronomy here well enough to be able to pinpoint a stardate
  80.  
  81. [9:55][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:"More or less, yeah. Sure Captain.
  82.  
  83. [9:55][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--raises and eyebrow at Vaylith.-- "You don't seem okay..
  84.  
  85. [9:55][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Darling] "Wow... I've never seen anything like these before." *He said excitedly.
  86.  
  87. [9:56][DOIC1]Istrin@the5of43:*he looked at Vayvay curiously
  88.  
  89. [9:56][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Darling] "Well, I mean, there's similarities to other plants and such, of course, but not these exact species!
  90.  
  91. [9:56][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:**As Ragnar listens (And anyone else doing the same) can hear tropical beautiful birdsongs, different birds singing in harmony to eachother creating a small symphony of the wilds
  92.  
  93. [9:56][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"All indication is we are on an as yet unexplored planet.
  94.  
  95. [9:56][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:> winds breezing through the leaves of the trees and various animals moving deeper in to the forests, calling out to eachother.*
  96.  
  97. [9:57][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] *She grunted.* "At least if we get hungry there's birds we can eat.
  98.  
  99. [9:57][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--goes to the towere, looking for an entrance.-
  100.  
  101. [9:57][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:More than birds.
  102.  
  103. [9:57][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:*he slipped of fthe useless harness of equipment keeping on the survival axe
  104.  
  105. [9:57][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"the planet seems to have a thriving eco-system.
  106.  
  107. [9:58][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:"Are you even considering slaughtering living beings when there is countless plants here where some has to atleast be eddieble? Serious? Stars..." *Her shoulders sulks.
  108.  
  109. [9:58][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Studies the twoer itself now, trying to see if he recognizes the architectural style at all.
  110.  
  111. [9:58][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:its survival Commander
  112.  
  113. [9:58][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "Plants are sides, meat is a meal." *She shrugged and kept searching for a door.
  114.  
  115. [9:58][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:If the animals can eat the plants, they will typically process out the poisons
  116.  
  117. [9:59][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:And removes some of the guess work
  118.  
  119. [9:59][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"...it is okay, we have no been here long enough to consider eating anything as of yet.
  120.  
  121. [9:59][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:Our rations came through we doon't need ot worry baout it for 2 weeks
  122.  
  123. [10:00][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--nods, continuing to look for a way into the tower.-
  124.  
  125. [10:00][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"The tower shares an architectural style with the temple and the cave town.
  126.  
  127. [10:00][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:"An animal can be as poisionous as a plant. The animals are living beings.
  128.  
  129. [10:00][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:**There is curiously enough no enterance to the little tower which imediately reveals itself.*
  130.  
  131. [10:01][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:"It's irrelevant anyway we have the ration bars.
  132.  
  133. [10:01][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "Tasty living beings, at that." *She squinted.* "I'm not seeing a door.
  134.  
  135. [10:01][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"there does not appear to be an entrance..
  136.  
  137. [10:01][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:Perhaps it is solid
  138.  
  139. [10:01][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"That makes no sense. Why build a tower if you're not going to use it...
  140.  
  141. [10:01][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "Maybe the door's behind the mural?
  142.  
  143. [10:01][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:Because it is a monument
  144.  
  145. [10:01][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"perhaps it is a doorway of a different kind..
  146.  
  147. [10:02][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:"It is rather relevant, I am gettign somewhat sick of hearing the 'Lets kill something that is living' talk being thrown around by this crew as soon as there is any convinient
  148.  
  149. [10:02][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Darling] "Try saying 'Open Sesame!'" *He called from his little botanist's paradise.
  150.  
  151. [10:02][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:> situation where tehre is not a replicator... Granted you have not been here long enough to see how problematic such diregard for life on a systematic frequency is, Commander.
  152.  
  153. [10:02][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--walks over to Vaylith and places and araround her.-
  154.  
  155. [10:03][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "Jeez, lady, it's a joke. Unclench yourself, would you?" *She inspected the borders of the mural.
  156.  
  157. [10:03][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:*Cants her head and looks somewhat confused at T'Pang.
  158.  
  159. [10:03][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Relax, if I have any say in the matter we wont be here long enough to consider the matter.
  160.  
  161. [10:03][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:Ensign do not address a commander that way
  162.  
  163. [10:04][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:*he says sternly to ettore
  164.  
  165. [10:04][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:"Very well captain, I appologize... ther are some thigns no longer present which should never been taken away.
  166.  
  167. [10:04][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] *She shrugged it off and tried pressing on things that could be buttons.
  168.  
  169. [10:04][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"I imagine this is not where we're supposed to be, however... we probably must move deeper in.
  170.  
  171. [10:05][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*He looks around the structure for anything that seems irregular.
  172.  
  173. [10:05][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:I agree, with t'ghor on this, if there is someone here, and they do not greet us we should explore
  174.  
  175. [10:05][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:Vaax do you sense anyhting
  176.  
  177. [10:05][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"You're correct, Commander... this seems like a monument.
  178.  
  179. [10:05][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"We need a bearing, we need to find where the original pilgrims ended up..
  180.  
  181. [10:05][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"This is more an obelisk than a tower.
  182.  
  183. [10:06][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:*he attemtps to look for anything suggesting a path.
  184.  
  185. [10:06][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:(ragnar please roll preception
  186.  
  187. [10:06][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Surely they colonized nearby.
  188.  
  189. [10:06][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Instead tries to look for any strange patches in the forest that might suggest heavy logging.
  190.  
  191. [10:06][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:Wel
  192.  
  193. [10:07][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:It seems we have a choice captian
  194.  
  195. [10:07][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"A choice?
  196.  
  197. [10:07][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:There is a path to the left and to the right both equially traveled
  198.  
  199. [10:07][DOIC1]Istrin@the5of43:*wincing slightly* I'm being a bit overloaded at the moment.. Everything here is contributing to what im feeling at the moment sir.
  200.  
  201. [10:07][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:I might suggest the right, the left hand path carries ominous meaning in some beleifes
  202.  
  203. [10:07][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"So someone comes through here regularly?
  204.  
  205. [10:07][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:It looks like it. WOuld also lend to the idea tha this is a monument
  206.  
  207. [10:08][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:**At the little 'crossroads' of the path found there is a sworl of colours all of a sudden.*
  208.  
  209. [10:08][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "Well what if this culture says the same thing about the right hand path, hm?
  210.  
  211. [10:08][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Blinks.
  212.  
  213. [10:08][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:I believe we are about to find out
  214.  
  215. [10:08][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Uuuuh... hello?" *He says to the colors.
  216.  
  217. [10:08][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--raises and eyebrow-
  218.  
  219. [10:08][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:Captain you should see this
  220.  
  221. [10:09][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "Oh, great, there's probably an atmospheric hallucinogen, too...
  222.  
  223. [10:09][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--stesp forward.-- "I am seeing it.
  224.  
  225. [10:09][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:**The swirling thigns froms to an enchantingly beautiful near human-ish woman with long flowing weavy hair that seems to nearly defy physics as its known
  226.  
  227. [10:10][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:> with how it floats. her skin a living deep colour of magenta. the woman standing a little above two meters tall, smiling alluringly to the groom.*
  228.  
  229. [10:10][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Greetings.
  230.  
  231. [10:10][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:[Woman]: "Hello..." *Her singing gentle voice brings warmth with it.
  232.  
  233. [10:10][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Looks stuned for a moment, before shaking his head.* "Uh... hello.
  234.  
  235. [10:11][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] *She gave a nonchalant wave.
  236.  
  237. [10:11][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:*ragnar smiles a little at the woman beign eye level
  238.  
  239. [10:11][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"i am captain T'Pang of the Federation starship Pilgrim, and who might you be?
  240.  
  241. [10:13][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:[Woman]: "Why I am me of course." *She giggles with a charming, enchanting warmth to it.
  242.  
  243. [10:14][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Do you have a name?
  244.  
  245. [10:14][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Darling] "Guys, you should check it out, there's a flowering bush that---" *He fell quiet as he set eyes on the magenta woman, his jaw dropping.* "Ooh-wee... just ignore me for now...
  246.  
  247. [10:15][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:[Woman]: "Yes and no, Names are not as meaningful here, if you need a name for your social ways, you may call me Xhi." *she warmly smiles as she looks at the group, giving a little wink to Darling as
  248.  
  249. [10:15][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:> he looks up from his flowery paradise.
  250.  
  251. [10:15][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Darling] *He blushed deeply and gave her a bashful wave.
  252.  
  253. [10:16][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"individual designation are important in our culture and language system.
  254.  
  255. [10:17][DOIC1]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:How do you communicate without names

  257. [10:17][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:*he stood behind t'pang quietly
  258.  
  259. [10:17][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:[Xhi]: "Then I shall be Xih to you!" *She cants her head and looks at T'Pang.* "You are beautiful... yet I wonder... what are you?
  260.  
  261. [10:18][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"I am a Vulcan.
  262.  
  263. [10:19][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:[Woman]: "You seem serene, not to mention small for a vulcano my dear?

  265. [10:20][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Chuckles.
  266.  
  267. [10:20][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--I am in reality only half Vulcan. I am half human as well.
  268.  
  269. [10:21][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:[Xhi]: "I have not heard of Vulcans, nor Humans before, and you came through the shard?
  270.  
  271. [10:21][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"yes. we interacted with a mural of some type it brought us here.
  272.  
  273. [10:22][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "Kinda like that one, just... more stuff." *She jerked a thumb over her shoulder.
  274.  
  275. [10:22][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:[Xhi]: *her curiousity seems peaked as some colours sworls around her hair.* "Really? The old world still exists?
  276.  
  277. [10:22][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Maybe not in a state in which you'd recognize it. But it does.
  278.  
  279. [10:22][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"yes it does, we have been exploring the ruins for some time now.
  280.  
  281. [10:23][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:[Xhi]: "That... I sense you are not lying, that is amazing!
  282.  
  283. [10:23][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Are you a descendent of the people from that world?
  284.  
  285. [10:24][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:[Xhi]: "So the legend goes, Yes!

  287. [10:24][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:*he shifts a little behind the captain.
  288.  
  289. [10:25][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:[Xhi]: "What is the old world like? Oh... are you thirsty? Hungry? I did hear a lot of worry about food?
  290.  
  291. [10:26][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"It is a huge rainforest above the ground.. the town where your people lived has crumbled, but it is... recognizable to an extent.
  292.  
  293. [10:26][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"i am not particularly hundry or thirsty, but thank you for the offer. We can tell you of the other world as it is today.
  294.  
  295. [10:26][DOIC1]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Or well... the town we know of.
  296.  
  297. [10:27][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:[Xhi]: "The town... Pilgrim's home? It still exists?
  298.  
  299. [10:27][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"there is little there to indicate the world was once inhabited, other than the runis in the cave.

  302.  
  303. [10:28][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"i assume you are not the only one here?
  304.  
  305. [10:29][DOIC1]Zalithya Vaylith@Illuic:[Xhi]: "No, I am not, we are many here. The tall on there is angry?" *She looks at Ragnar.

  308.  
  309. [10:29][DOIC1]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--she looks at Ragnar-
  310.  
  311. [10:30][DOIC1]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] *She looked over as well.

  316.  
  317. [10:31][DOIC1]Ragnar@Captain_Rien:Not angry, annoyed, our organizaiton has a certain sense of order to how we do things that the beauty of your paradise seems to have robbed some of the crew of the memory
