PA8(Scattered on the wind) Remiel2: Drunken 20 questions

[15:53] <~Kroked> You head with Dyne into Rootville, which, appropriately, is at the roots of the great tre castle, all of the houses and stores being formed from said roots
[15:53] <~Kroked> BGM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDTVsitKMk8
[15:54] <~Kroked> Dyne is silent the entire walk through the town and leads you to a small store near the western edge
[15:56] * Remiel tries to think of something to say, but her mind is blank.
[15:56] <~Kroked> he walks brusquely into the shop and you follow meekly behind, inside is a warm nice atmosphere, full of beautiful dresses
[15:58] * Remiel carefully looks around the store as she enters.
[15:58] <~Kroked> "I've come to pick up my order" Dyne states simply, the shop keep, shocked at the sudden apearence nods , and calls up the stairs "Gina! Get the dress"
[15:58] <~Kroked> Remiel: there are dresses of all kinds, all of them beautiful beyond compare, you're sure that back home, each would have sold for a fortune
[15:59] <Remiel> "...beautiful."
[16:00] <~Kroked> A plain looking, yet slightly elegant girl comes down the steps with a dress, closer to a suit really, but elegant none the same, colored a light magenta, Dyne looks up at her and says simply "Put it on her"
[16:01] <~Kroked> The girl, who appears human, freezes in fear at the forbidding looking Fae The shop keeper looks at the girl and says quickly "Don't tarry Gina hurry"
[16:01] <~Kroked> the girl nods quickly and grabs you lightly by the hand, dragging you upstairs to get dressed
[16:02] * Remiel looks dazed and confused as she's dragged upstairs.
[16:02] <~Kroked> the woman seems rightened, but brings you to the center of the room and begins to undress you
[16:03] <Remiel> "Um...If it's allright, I can do it myself."
[16:04] <~Kroked> the woman jumps in surprise "Oh! uh ok"
[16:04] <~Kroked> she backs off a little
[16:05] * Remiel begins undressing herself, taking another good look at her body as she does so.
[16:07] <~Kroked> it has matured, you can tell for sure now, especially with all the mirrors in the room. You no longer look like a pretty child, but a full grown, beautiful woman
[16:09] <~Kroked> once you are undressed, the girl, Gina, begins to help you get into the slim dress
[16:09] <~Kroked> dress/suit combo
[16:10] <~Kroked> the material is smooth, but it feels very durable as you put it on, it's easy to move in, and if you do say so yourself, you look elegant
[16:12] <~Kroked> "How is it? Does it fit well? It's not to small is it? or is it to garish?" the poor girl is shaking she's so nervous
[16:12] <Remiel> "No, no! It's lovely."
[16:20] <~Kroked> "Y-you're sure?"
[16:20] <~Kroked> "There's nothing wrong?"
[16:21] <Remiel> "It's fine...Gina, was it?"
[16:22] <~Kroked> "Y-yes" she gives you a quick bow
[16:24] <Remiel> "I see, Well, my name is Remiel. It's a pleasure to meet you, Gina."
[16:24] * Remiel smiles.
[16:24] <~Kroked> Gina seems to calm down a little at that and she smiles back, giving a curtsy "It's a pleasure to meet you Prince- er, princess Remiel"
[16:25] * Remiel 's smile turns into an expression of surprise. "...princess?"
[16:27] <~Kroked> Gina seems as confused as you "yes, you are the new Princess the Charm Lord saved 8 years ago aren't you? I heard you've been asleep all this time"
[16:28] <Remiel> "Eight...Years?"
[16:28] <~Kroked> "Yes, thats when we first started getting orders for dresses"
[16:30] * Remiel begins visibly panicking. "I've been asleep for eight years. This is not good,"
[16:31] <~Kroked> "Are... you ok Princess Remiel?"
[16:31] <Remiel> "My parents, my friends...They must be worried sick... They- They probably think I'm DEAD!"
[16:33] <~Kroked> "You were dead" says a voice from the stairway
[16:33] <~Kroked> Dyne walks up the stairs, appraising your new dress, and gives Gina a nod "It looks good, thank you"
[16:35] <Remiel> "What do you mean, I /was/ dead?
[16:36] <Remiel> "
[16:37] <~Kroked> Dyne glances at you "You appeared in flower garden, bleeding, your body full of terrible wounds and scars. you died, and our Lord infused you with his own blood to bring you back from the dead"
[16:38] <Remiel> "I...I...That was actually the last thing I remember, before waking up."
[16:40] <~Kroked> "Than why ask? Do you doubt yourself that much?"
[16:44] <Remiel> "I...I want to thank him properly."
[16:47] <~Kroked> Dyne chuckles "You will have your chance, believe me"
[16:47] <~Kroked> "Come now, we must present you to the Charm Lord"
[16:48] <~Kroked> DYne turns and heads back down the steps
[16:52] <~Kroked> Gina's just kinda... in awe
[16:53] * Remiel waves at Gina before heading down the steps.
[16:54] <~Kroked> Dyne walks you through rootville back to the Tree Castle
[16:54] <~Kroked> the Gates open as you approach it, Dyne leads you through, back towards the Throne room
[17:01] <~Kroked> ((sorry had to take the dog out))
[17:01] <~Kroked> inside Herre is waiting alone on his throne
[17:01] <~Kroked> he appraises you with a keen eye. Dyne bows
[17:02] <~Kroked> "Is it to your liking my lord?"
[17:04] <~Kroked> "Yes... yes she looks absolutely stunning. your tastes are refined as always Dyne"
[17:04] <~Kroked> "You flatter me My lord"
[17:05] <~Kroked> "She shall require instruction in our ways. I will wake White Rose, she will teach her manners, you will instruct her in our manner of combat"
[17:06] <~Kroked> Dyne bows once more "As you wish my Lord"
[17:46] <~Kroked> Dyne turns and begins to leave. "Come" he says simply
[17:47] * Remiel quickly walks after him.
[17:48] <~Kroked> "We shall retrieve White Rose first, She will instruct you in our ways." he says as you follow him back up the tree "I will teach you our way of fighting later"
[17:56] <~Kroked> he leads you up to the highest tower, the one decked with white flowers. Dyne leads you through the room full of coffins, into the one with clear coffin
[17:56] <~Kroked> you wait for a moment, and the coffin begins to brightly glow
[17:56] <~Kroked> there is a flash
[17:57] <~Kroked> when you can see again, the lid of the coffin is gone, and the beautiful girl who was inside is now standing there, blinking herself awake, she looks to you
[17:57] <~Kroked> "It's nice to meet you Princess Remiel "
[17:58] <~Kroked> "This is Princess White Rose, the 42nd Arch-Princess, and widely seen as the fairest of them" Dyne says as introduction
[17:59] * Remiel curtseys. "It's a pleasure to meet you."
[17:59] <~Kroked> White Rose smiles "Likewise" she turns to Dyne "It's been a long time Dyne"
[18:00] <~Kroked> "Yes, it has indeed." he says with a nod "For now I will leave her in your care, I have buisness to take care of"
[18:00] <~Kroked> Dyne fades away
[18:02] <~Kroked> "I am to answer any questions you might have, as well as teaching you about our ways" White rose says with a curtsy
[18:03] <Remiel> "I see..."
[18:04] <Remiel> "Exactly where is this planet located?"
[18:04] <~Kroked> "Nowhere, it isn't a planet"
[18:04] <~Kroked> "It is in a sort of space between space"
[18:06] * Remiel tilts her head. "Space...Between space?"
[18:07] <~Kroked> "Yes, a different Dimension"
[18:08] <Remiel> "Does time move the same here as the one I'm from?"
[18:08] <~Kroked> "Time is... a complicated matter in Si."
[18:09] <~Kroked> "It is irregular, and moves in strange ways"
[18:09] <~Kroked> "Sometimes it moves faster than the normal worl, other times, much slower"
[18:10] <Remiel> "So then...There's a chance that I might have been gone in the other world for no time at all, or I might have been gone for even longer."
[18:13] <~Kroked> "Or that you have not even left yet"
[18:16] <Remiel> "Might not have..."
[18:17] <~Kroked> "Yes"
[18:17] <~Kroked> "Time ebs, flows, and at times recedes"
[18:18] <Remiel> "is there any way to tell how it's currently moving?"
[18:19] <~Kroked> "Without leaving, no."
[18:20] <Remiel> "And how do I leave?"
[18:21] <~Kroked> "You don't. "
[18:22] <Remiel> "what?"
[18:23] <~Kroked> "Lord Herre does not let go of that which he has aquired"
[18:26] <Remiel> "Lord Herre...I'm truly grateful for what he's done, and I may never be able to repay him, but I can't stay here."
[18:27] <~Kroked> "I'm afraid you have no choice my dear, Herre is very fond of his Princesses, and would never let one of us leave. And none have escaped... except for Princess Rei"
[18:28] <Remiel> "Princess Rei?"
[18:29] <~Kroked> "Lord Herre's first princess, she escaped long ago, and Herre still searches for her to this day"
[18:31] <Remiel> "Exactly...how long ago?"
[18:32] <~Kroked> "100 years ago, here at least"
[18:33] <Remiel> "a hundred..."
[18:34] <Remiel> "...How long do the Fae live?"
[18:34] <~Kroked> "We live eternally, if we are not killed"
[18:35] <Remiel> "And how long would someone with Fae blood live?"
[18:35] <~Kroked> "You wish to know how long you will live?"
[18:36] <Remiel> "yes."
[18:37] <~Kroked> "It is not known, as you are the first, and only Half fae to ever exist, but considering your capabilities, its beleived that you will as well"
[18:38] <Remiel> "Capabilities?"
[18:39] <~Kroked> "Your abilities, Herre's blood has granted you the regenerative properties of the Fae, along with his own power"
[18:41] <Remiel> "Regenerative...So when that man stabbed me, it was to see how fast I would heal?"
[18:43] <~Kroked> She gives a nod "Yes"
[18:43] <~Kroked> "The color of your blood was a surprise however, though it should have been expected"
[18:44] <Remiel> "Let's change the subject."
[18:45] <~Kroked> "As you wish Lady Remiel "
[18:45] <Remiel> "Um...Could you please not call me that?"
[18:46] <~Kroked> "What shall I call you than?"
[18:47] <Remiel> "Just 'Remiel' is fine..."
[18:47] <~Kroked> "As you wish Remiel " White Rose says with a polite curtsy
[18:49] * Remiel cringes a little as she remembers her early days with Erina.
[18:51] <Remiel> "Hmm..."
[18:52] <Remiel> "Oh! On my way down, there was a red-haired man. Who was he?"
[18:54] <~Kroked> "Red Haired?" she cocks her head "Did Zozma?"
[18:54] <~Kroked> *Did you meet Zozma"
[18:55] <Remiel> "I think that's what the other two men called him."
[18:56] <~Kroked> "Zozma is a Rebel, one who wishes for someonelse to take Lord Herre's place"
[18:57] <Remiel> "Is there a reason why?"
[18:58] <~Kroked> "Jealousy, desire for power, who knows?"
[19:33] <Remiel> "Is that really all there is to it?"
[19:34] <~Kroked> "Maybe, I would not know. I have no desire to betray my Lord, why would I understand one who does?"
[19:38] <Remiel> "Hmm... I think I've about exausted my questions."
[19:39] <~Kroked> "Than Shall I take you on a tour of the Castle?"
[19:40] <Remiel> "I kind of took a tour myself, actually."
[19:40] <Remiel> "But it'd be great to know what everything was."
[19:41] <~Kroked> "I see what would you like to know about first?"
[19:42] <Remiel> "Well, there was this sort of a store room..."
[19:44] <~Kroked> "The relic room. All of the items are bound to that room are Herre's personal treausres, and cannot be removed by anyone but himself unless he desires it"
[19:45] <Remiel> "Oh."
[19:47] <Remiel> "There was also this room with a pool of water..."
[19:48] <~Kroked> "That is a shortcut to Herre's garden, which leads to his personal tower"
[19:50] <Remiel> "I'm guessing that the tower is off limits?"
[19:50] <~Kroked> "Unless you are called personally, yes"
[19:52] <Remiel> "On my way down, there were also a few other towers, each had their own coffin. Are they all princesses as well?"
[19:56] <~Kroked> "Yes, the Yellow room Is Princess Leona, the Golden Lion, known for her beautiful blonde hair, and her fighting Prowess, bested only by Lord Herre. the Red room is where Princess Rei used to reside"
[19:57] <~Kroked> All the coffins in the bigger rooms contain Princesses of Less Renown"
[20:00] <Remiel> "And the one I woke up in?"
[20:00] <~Kroked> "That is your room, it has been empty for a long time now"
[20:01] <~Kroked> "Saved for the one Herre would name as his Heir"
[20:01] <Remiel> "His...heir?"
[20:02] <~Kroked> "Yes, you share his blood, and so have inherited his power"
[20:04] <Remiel> "But I don't even know the first thing about running a kingdom!"
[20:06] <~Kroked> WHite rose shakes her head "Herre will live forever, so you need not fear"
[20:11] <Remiel> "Is there a library in this castle?"
[20:13] <~Kroked> "In Herre's Chambers"
[20:15] <Remiel> "Oh."
[20:17] <Remiel> "which is off limits."
[20:17] <~Kroked> "Unless Herre calls you, perhaps you he will allow you to see it if you ask when he does"
[20:22] * Remiel sighs.
[20:23] <Remiel> "I think that's about all I want to know for now."
[20:24] <~Kroked> "As you wish Remiel " White rose says with a curtsy
[20:25] <~Kroked> "Perhaps you should rest for the day, I will be here if you require me"
[20:28] <Remiel> "Alright."
[20:29] <~Kroked> WHite rose moves to the window and stares outside, you leave
[20:29] <~Kroked> where would you like to go?
[20:30] * Remiel heads back to her room.
[20:32] <~Kroked> about halfway to your room you hear a voice from behind you "Hey, you."
[20:33] * Remiel turns around.
[20:34] <~Kroked> You see the blonde man from before, the severe one "I have some good information for you, if you want it"
[20:35] <Remiel> "What is it?"
[20:36] <~Kroked> "A way out, you do want to leave, don't you?"
[20:36] * Remiel looks around before answering.
[20:36] <~Kroked> you are alone, except for the man
[20:37] <Remiel> "I do."
[20:38] <~Kroked> "In Rootville, at the bar, you'll find a human man who knows a way out. Speak to him"
[20:39] <Remiel> "Am I even allowed to leave the castle?
[20:40] <~Kroked> "The gate will open for you, afterall, there is supposed to be no way out"
[20:40] <~Kroked> the man turns and fades away
[20:40] * Remiel begins heading down towards the gate.
[20:42] <~Kroked> you head down, and when you reach the ground floor, you find another man, the third Fae who was in the throne room who you had not met before "Hello Arch Princess Remiel, are you getting used to the castle?"
[20:43] * Remiel curtsies. "Hello...Um, I didn't carch your name, actually."
[20:43] <~Kroked> "You may call me Rastaban Arch-Princess"
[20:46] <Remiel> "I see... Well, Rastaban, It's actually taking some getting used to, it's not at all like the one I lived in, back home."
[20:48] <~Kroked> "Yes... this castle is indeed cold... cold and unchanging. It is eternal and unaffected by the passage of time. I've been waiting for someone to reset its clock."
[20:48] <~Kroked> "I beleive you may be that someone"
[20:49] <Remiel> "Pardon?"
[20:51] <~Kroked> "Man of the Fae already fear your growing power Lady Remiel, I am interested to see where your path takes you"
[20:51] <~Kroked> he gives you a bow, and instead of just dissapearing, he walks away
[20:52] * Remiel continues towards the gates.
[20:52] <~Kroked> the gates open for you, and you head into rootville
[20:53] * Remiel wanders around, looking for the bar
[20:53] <~Kroked> there are several Buildings of note. some kind of magic shop, the dress shop rom earlier, some store about items of some kind, and the bar
[20:57] <~Kroked> you just head to the bar?
[20:58] * Remiel decides to head to the magic shop first.
[20:59] <~Kroked> it's a shop filled with books on magic a Fae woman is at the counter "How may I help you?"
[21:01] <Remiel> "Um... I'm just browsing for right now, thank you."
[21:03] <~Kroked> "Of course, let me know if anything catches your eye"
[21:03] <~Kroked> Remiel: you immediatly notice that all of the books center around either Darkness, or Illusion Magic
[21:04] * Remiel sighs.
[21:06] * Remiel continues browsing for a while, and then leaves.
[21:07] <~Kroked> you do so
[21:10] <~Kroked> where to?
[21:30] <Remiel> ((to the bar))
[21:31] <~Kroked> you head to the bar
[21:31] <~Kroked> its... kinda depressing actually, it's all dusty and empty except for the liquor behind the counter and the incredibly drunk man at a table
[21:33] * Remiel walks towards the drunk man.
[21:34] <~Kroked> "Ho sank god anoser perthon!, Man Izn't this Bar so fucking /deprething/?!"
[21:35] <~Kroked> "I mean cummon, what happened to the ennertainment around here!, Where's the music, and the dancin!"
[21:38] <~Kroked> "Knnoe what I meann?"
[21:40] <Remiel> "Kinda."
[21:41] <~Kroked> the man holds a bottle to you "Heer, siddown, have a drink fer awhile, loosen up"
[21:42] * Remiel sits down.
[21:43] <~Kroked> the man passes you the bottle
[21:45] * Remiel smells the bottle first.
[21:46] <~Kroked> it's very very strong smelling, it burns your nose
[21:47] * Remiel cringes, and hesitantly takes a sip.
[21:48] <~Kroked> it burns your tounge, its...kinda gross, but you get it down
[21:48] <~Kroked> it leaves this warm burning sensation in your chest
[21:48] <~Kroked> its not bad actually
[21:51] <~Kroked> "Good sheet eah?"
[21:52] <Remiel> "I've actually never drank before."
[21:52] * Remiel laughs.
[21:52] <~Kroked> "Well than take teh hole bottle than! erryone needs ta geet drank at lest once!"
[21:53] * Remiel takes another sip
[21:54] <~Kroked> your head's getting a little light, and the taste has gotten more bearable, most of all though is that warmth, man does that feel good
[21:54] <~Kroked> you just cant help but smile
[21:56] <~Kroked> "So, waht brut yeh to thees sad stat of a bar?"
[21:56] <Remiel> "I'm Remiel, by the way. What's your name?"
[21:56] <~Kroked> "Call meh Ned, noice teh met ya Roomiell"
[21:58] <Remiel> "So, Ned. What do you do for a living?"
[22:00] <~Kroked> "Oooh yeh nuh, a beet of thees, a beet oh that, Generaleh tak an deeleever thins peeple want move, ya knoow discreetly"
[22:01] <Remiel> "So...Like a smuggler, then?"
[22:01] <~Kroked> the man chortles "Yah I guess so"
[22:02] <Remiel> "So then, you wouldn't by any chance know how to get out of here, would you?"
[22:02] <~Kroked> the mans eems to get a little defensive at that "Ah... dun has a clue what yer mening. No way outta Si is there now?"
[22:03] <~Kroked> Remiel: holy shit, the bottles a quarter gone
[22:05] <Remiel> "So, there isn't a way, but let's say that hypothetically there is..."
[22:07] <~Kroked> "Hiypohthetocly eh? Ahm Listenin"
[22:07] <Remiel> "And Hy-po-thet-ic-cal-lly, let's say I know someone who wants to get out of here..."
[22:11] <~Kroked> "Whaaale... Hypohtheetically, if dem person were to take theese key" he lightly pushes a key across the table to you "and unloocke the door undeer this bar, and were to hypohtheetically, bring some cash, than hypothetically, you could find a way out"
[22:12] <~Kroked> "Hypothetically of course"
[22:13] <Remiel> "I see..."
[22:14] <Remiel> "So, Hypothetically, how much cash are we talking here?"
[22:15] <~Kroked> "I'd say Hypotheticallye uround ... say 2000 gold?
[22:27] * Remiel grabs the key as casually as she can in this state. "Well, Hypothetically, we'll be in touch."
[22:27] <~Kroked> the man winks "Hypothetically of course"
[22:29] * Remiel stands up.
[22:29] <~Kroked> the room sways
[22:32] * Remiel struggles to maintain balance, and stuffs the key down her shirt.
[22:32] <~Kroked> you do so
[22:33] <Remiel> ((Roll style to not walk like a drunk person?))
[22:34] <~Kroked> roll Composure
[22:34] <Remiel> )roll 1d100-20

[22:35] * Crunk --> "Remiel rolls 1d100+30 and gets 43."
[22:36] <~Kroked> you not only are able to keep your balance, but you look fairly sexy walking out... to the drunk guy at least, others just think you look normal
[22:37] * Remiel heads back towards the castle.
[22:38] <~Kroked> you do so
[22:38] <~Kroked> the gates open for you as you approach
[22:38] * Remiel makes her way up the stairs.
[22:39] <~Kroked> roll acrobatics -20
[22:40] <Remiel> )roll 1d100-45
[22:40] * Crunk --> "Remiel rolls 1d100-45 and gets 29."
[22:41] <~Kroked> you stumble and trip, you begin to fall down the stairs...
[22:41] <~Kroked> only to be caught by a firm hand
[22:41] * Remiel looks to see who it is.
[22:42] <~Kroked> Dyne looks down at you, a stern look on his face "This is no way for a princess to be acting"
[22:45] <Remiel> "Really? No-one told me that."
[22:46] <~Kroked> Dyne takes a deep breath "I will take you to your room, you will sleep. I will be reporting to Herre about this"
[22:48] <Remiel> "That's fine, I'm in no condition to climb these stairs anyway."
[22:49] <~Kroked> everything around you fades away,
[22:49] <~Kroked> you are than suddenly in your room
[22:49] <~Kroked> he places you on the bed you woke up in
[22:50] <Remiel> "Thank you."
[22:50] <~Kroked> "Sleep this off" he says sternly "I will speak with you tomorrow and begin your combat training"
[22:50] <~Kroked> he fades away
[22:51] * Remiel closes her eyes.
[22:52] <~Kroked> you fall into a drunken sleep
