448Your snake squeezes your finger lightly as it wakes and slowly uncurls itself.  Flicking its tongue as it moves, the snake slides across your palm and coils about your wrist.  It tucks its head beneath your thumb and falls back to sleep.

483> 
484Aerathor nods politely to Emyrose.
485> 
486The shaderald's hooked beak suddenly opens abnormally wide as a vaguely Human-like face appears in its mouth and screams in a gurgling voice:
487
488       "All hail the arrival of Marcul, Master of Shadow!"
489
490It closes its beak and swallows hard.

520> 
521> 
522Rifkinn leaps from hiding and ambushes Nsar!
523Rifkinn thrusts a windsteel thrusting blade with whorling whirlwinds along the blade at Nsar.  The blade flashes with a deep indigo light and lands an apocalyptic strike (So that's what it felt like when Grazhir shattered!) that pierces clean through from one side of the neck to the other (Looks like a party gag, except for being quite dead)!  
524
525 * Nsar is slain before your eyes!
526
527>

539> 
540> 
541> 
542Nsar's corpse begins to shake violently, sprouting new mass to replace its lost organs.  The convulsions reach a fevered pitch and then abruptly stop when Nsar's eyes snap open!  He drags himself upright, wracked with pain and gasping for air, but clearly alive.
543
544> 
545Nsar rubs his hands together.
546> 
547> 
548Rifkinn says, "I warned it."
549> 
550> 
551> 
552> 
553Nsar sits down on the prayer tapestry.
554
555> 
556Marcul's cage of celestial fire erupts in a flare of crimson light and vanishes.

584Nsar says to Aerathor, "He has trouble with using his words, its nothing new."
585> 
586Aerathor sighs.
587> 
588> 
589> 
590> 
591> 
592Rifkinn gets a windsteel thrusting blade with whorling whirlwinds along the blade from inside his haversack.

605> 
606Aerathor says, "I have been known have my fair share of flaws."
607> 
608> 
609Rifkinn leaps from hiding and ambushes Nsar!
610Rifkinn thrusts a windsteel thrusting blade with whorling whirlwinds along the blade at Nsar.  The blade lands an apocalyptic strike (So that's what it felt like when Grazhir shattered!) that punctures deeply, sending a stream of pulsing blood everywhere (Nice spleen shot!), knocking him completely senseless!

614> 
615> 
616Rifkinn leaps from hiding and ambushes Nsar!
617Rifkinn thrusts a windsteel thrusting blade with whorling whirlwinds along the blade at Nsar.  The blade lands an apocalyptic strike (So that's what it felt like when Grazhir shattered!) that shoves the blade clean through the mouth and out the back of the head (Say 'ah'!)!  
618
619 * Nsar is slain before your eyes!

629Nsar's corpse begins to shake violently, sprouting new mass to replace its lost organs.  The convulsions reach a fevered pitch and then abruptly stop when Nsar's eyes snap open!  He lies in a fetal position, wracked with pain and gasping for air, but clearly alive.
630
631> 
632Rifkinn says, "Keep it up."
633> 
634Nsar stands up.
635

1406> 
1407Cartographer Skakin goes southeast.
1408
1409> 
1410Aerathor says, "I was not present at the Visit the Spidersworn made, but I learned from someone who was there...the necromancer present was asked to leave..just so the wildling spiders would appear."
1411> 
1412Rifkinn quietly says to Marssi, "A sadness more than interesting."

1445> 
1446> 
1447> 
1448> 
1449> 
1450Aerathor says, "But why is it that corruption from sorcery and necromancy can harm them? Its because it harms the web of fate."
1451> 
1452Angel shifts her weight.
1453> 
1454> 
1455Aerathor glances at Nsar.
1456>

1460> 
1461> 
1462Aerathor asks Nsar, "Did you make this connection or do you simply feign ignorance on the matter?"
1463> 
1464> 
1465> 
1466Uncurling slowly from around your wrist, a small golden snake winds its way slowly up your arm and across your shoulder.  It pauses briefly, flicking its tongue to gain its bearings.  Blinking its jewel-like eyes it slithers over to your neck where it loops itself in graceful coils before returning to its sleeping state.

1477> 
1478> 
1479> 
1480Angel clears her throat.
1481> 
1482Nsar says, "As I dont subscribe to fate like you and your colleagues do, it seems lazy to agree that we're somehow causing damage to it."
1483> 
1484Nsar shrugs.
1485> 
1486[General] Your mind hears Mischeif thinking, "a set of the double leathers"
1487

1515> 
1516Aerathor's cage of shadows shatters, the fragments dissipating as they fall away.

1528> 
1529> 
1530> 
1531Aerathor says to you, "I'm asking him serious questions. Sorry if I seem hostile. I have no intention of killing him. It seems rather uneffective to my goal.,."

1557Aerathor says to Rifkinn, "If teach a man to fish you can free him of hunger. I am trying to teach this man a similar lesson."
1558> 
1559> 
1560> 
1561> 
1562Hebion asks, "May I interject?"

1567Sage Vaerek strides southeast.
1568

1600> 
1601> 
1602
1603> 
1604The air around Aerathor shimmers with a weak yellow light that quickly disperses.

1607> 
1608> 
1609>

1623
1624> 
1625[General] Your mind hears Mischeif thinking, "the reason you can hear me so clearly is because the halo boosts my distance"
1626
1627
1628> 
1629Aerathor says, "That is to be seen. Fate is not set in stone is weaved."
1630> 
1631Aerathor says, "It is even."
1632> 
1633Aerathor clears his throat.
1634> 
1635> 
1636> 
1637Hebion says, "Without air you will die, that is another way to as you put it, see something." The emphasis is clearly on the word see, his words are patient and clear as he continues, "The theory with Fate means that if a man has free will he does not need the web, so they are very different things that you try to compare."

1656
1657> 
1658Aerathor says to you, "Its about the corruption of fate, the relation between corruption and the webs destruction."
1659> 
1660Aerathor gives a slight nod.

1672> 
1673> 
1674[Trade] Your mind hears Taishi thinking, "so much so that its almost a pain, with the flames showing critters where im hiding.  But the trade off is worth it in my opinion."
1675
1676> 
1677Hebion says, "One might argue that the moon mage guild is as dangerous if not more so than those who follow the sorcerous practices of necromancy."
1678> 
1679Aerathor says, "Many have a seat in this discussion. Every guild has practitioners of sorcery."
1680> 
1681> 
1682> 
1683Angel raises an eyebrow.
1684> 
1685Rifkinn nods in agreement.
1686> 
1687[General] Your mind hears Psilocybe thinking, "Sounds like a bunch of Maelshyve worship going on to me."
1688
1689>

1698> 
1699> 
1700> 
1701> 
1702> 
1703Aerathor says, "But you see here is the difference, and it is the key."
1704> 
1705> 
1706Rifkinn says, "Though i will agree that some moon mages do not strive for the destruction of the world as we know it."
1707> 
1708> 
1709> 
1710> 
1711> 
1712[General] Your mind hears Psilocybe thinking, "Horns and leathers. Burn em."
1713
1714> 
1715Aerathor says, "The empaths and moon mages both hide knowledge that should be left forgotten...there is a reason it was hidden."
1716> 
1717Nsar whispers something to Emyrose.
1718> 
1719>

1728
1729>

1733> 
1734[General] Your mind hears Mischeif thinking, "the humor there is the leaathers are fire "

1753> 
1754Emyrose asks, "Would not hiding it make it more dangerous?"

1770> 
1771[General] Your mind hears Hoger thinking, "happens to the best of us"
1772
1773> 
1774Hebion says, "I would say that if anyone has harmed the Web of Fate, would be those of the guild hall we now stand."
1775> 
1776> 
1777> 
1778[General] Your mind hears Mischeif thinking, "i need to watch my diet"
1779
1780> 
1781> 
1782> 
1783Aerathor says, "Its not about being in plain sight or hidden, its about what they are seeking...the knowledge they are after is corrupting fate...there practices are threatening the very threads of reality."
1784> 
1785> 
1786> 
1787> 
1788> 
1789> 
1790Rifkinn says to Emyrose, "This is where trust and faith in the immortals comes into play."
1791> 
1792Emyrose glances at Rifkinn.

1818Angel arranges her hair until it is worn in a deceptively careless-looking arrangement of upswept locks held in place by a midnight-hued Phelim's Bliss rose made of glittering starlight velvet.
1819> 
1820Emyrose says to Rifkinn, "That is an interesting choice of words."

1846> 
1847> 
1848> 
1849Rifkinn says to Emyrose, "THAT is ones only choice of words, if they dont want to live in fear."
1850> 
1851Aerathor says, "I don't doubt the existance of the immortals. I have seen."

1862> 
1863> 
1864> 
1865Aerathor says, "And its not moon mages who are being struck down by them for their corruption."

1877Hebion says to Aerathor, "That depends on how you look at things."
1878> 
1879[General] Your mind hears Hoger thinking, "Harsh you up North?"
1880
1881> 
1882Nsar says, "You could argue that maybe a few should have been."
1883> 
1884Emyrose says to Rifkinn, "It sounds like you want a 'Rule by Fear' world.  I would prefer not."
1885> 
1886Nsar nods to Aerathor.

2074> loo heb
2075You see Sir Hebion Cholares, an Elf.
2076Hebion has a handsomely sculpted face with a chiseled jaw, grandly curved and pointed ears and vivid gold rays enhancing striking amber eyes.  His layered sun-streaked sable hair is neck-length and soft, and is worn in a careless, windblown arrangement.  He has an irregular scar along the right pectoral muscle marring bronzed skin and a virile and powerfully athletic build.
2077He is statuesque yet agile for an Elf.
2078He appears to be young.
2079He has a tattoo of a sunburst mandala centered between his shoulder blades picked out in thick, dark lines that spread out to curl around each shoulder, and up the back of the neck.  The bottom point lengthens into overlapping scales depicted in ebon ink that ends just above the lower back.  Shadowed geometric shapes advance outward from the main design to create the image on his back.
2080He is in good shape.
2081
2082He is wearing a loose shirt of silvery green silk, a wide acenite commitment ring molded around a single rainbow sapphire, a tiny violet of alexandrite, a pair of sleek black trousers and a pair of heavy black boots with steel buckles.

2084Aerathor motions to Nsar.

2090> 
2091> 
2092Aerathor asks, "What greater good can they accomplish by resucreting someones ancestor to deliver their news?"
2093> 
2094Hebion says to Aerathor, "I am saying perhaps you should stop accusing individuals of group deeds."
2095> 
2096Nsar gazes off to the south.
2097> 
2098> 
2099> 
2100Nsar gazes off to the east.

2109Rifkinn says, "Easy."
2110> 
2111> 
2112> 
2113Hebion asks Rifkinn, "Along with how many innocent?"
2114> 
2115Suddenly, as if somehow startled from its sleep, your snake wakes and plunges down your chest.  As the last coil unloops from your neck the snake flips its tail and bats you on the nose!
2116
2117Reaching your belt, the snake drapes itself over the buckle and resumes its slumbering state.

2134> 
2135> 
2136> 
2137Miskton raises an eyebrow in Rifkinn's direction.
2138> 
2139You overhear voices from nearby getting louder.  "Did you hear that the Dragon Shield is having a vault auction?  I love vault auctions, and there will be stuff from lots of members vaults up for sale!  I can't wait to see what will be offered."  As the voices grow faint, you hear that the auction will begin shortly at the Traders' Guild auction hall in Riverhaven.  [OOC:  The auction will begin at 9:00 PM Eastern.  From outside the Riverhaven temple: Go west, go guild, climb stairs, north, go foyer, go hall.]
2140

2142Hebion says to Rifkinn, "How quickly the inquisition forgets their wayward torturer."
2143> 
2144> 
2145> 
2146Emyrose says to Rifkinn, "Not by the immortals themselves, but those who claim to be doing their work."
2147> 
2148Rifkinn says, "Plenty have suffered at the hands of the likes of those."
2149> 
2150> 
2151>

2153> 
2154Rifkinn motions to Nsar.
2155> 
2156> 
2157> 
2158Aerathor says to Hebion, "The council has been disolved already. One obelisk remains. If it were to be destroyed the backlash of it might destroy the very plane."
2159> 
2160> 
2161> 
2162> 
2163Angel nods in agreement.

2165>

2168Vyraen softly says, "Mmm. Let us avoid that, yes."
2169> 
2170Vyraen shivers.
2171> 
2172Hebion says, "You must not have spent much time in Ilithi during the terror from beyond the barrier."
2173> 
2174> 
2175Nsar asks, "I do recall many an innocent name being listed on the registers of the Hounds and the Inquisition. From the sounds of it they're launching back into their old ways... How long before it all begins again?"
2176> 
2177> 
2178> 
2179> 
2180Vyraen softly says, "I quite enjoy living here."

2182Vyraen sighs.

2185> 
2186A faint growl echoes from the shadow.

2190> 
2191> 
2192> 
2193> 
2194> 
2195Aerathor says, "It is regarding the Obelisk Builders."
2196> 
2197> 
2198Hebion says, "When inquisitioners grabed innocents and guilty alike, tortured and some of them even imprissoned in the Red Buzzard for speaking words, nothing more."
2199> 
2200> 
2201> 
2202Aerathor says, "The ones from whom we moon mages inherited our debt from."
2203> 
2204> 
2205Rifkinn says, "Mistakes have been made it times of desperation and passionate beleifs, it is sad and regrettable. But the Immortals hold the last word on all with judgment."

2219> sa }Rifk Only the Gods may Judge You. How quaint.
2220You say to Rifkinn, "Only the Gods may Judge You. How quaint."
2221> 
2222Mazrian just arrived, leading his group.
2223
2224> 
2225Vyraen softly says, "Precisely. The Immortals are infallible. If something occurs, it is because They will it."
2226> 
2227> 
2228> 
2229> 
2230> 
2231> 
2232Aerathor says to Nsar, "Pacts are another thing that has obviously been proven is a futile attempt at best...the husk is always sacrificed..."
2233> 
2234Rifkinn nods in agreement.
2235> 
2236> 
2237> 
2238> 
2239> 
2240Mazrian dryly says, "Evening, everyone."
2241> 
2242Nsar asks, "Always?"

2244Nsar raises an eyebrow in Aerathor's direction.

2252Vyraen softly says to Mazrian, "A lovely evening it is."

2254Angel gives Mazrian a formal hug, pressing first her right cheek, then her left, against Mazrian's.
2255> 
2256Aerathor says to Nsar, "Yes always."

2262> 
2263> 
2264Mazrian says, "A little wet for my taste."

2266Aerathor says to Nsar, "Delaying at best is all that can be accomplished. And its never truly your own power..."
2267> 
2268Aerathor grins.

2271Water drips from Kaelie's moonsilver zills.

2279> 
2280Nsar says, "I sit here today, after having been found in favor of Maelshyve. I am no husk, sir."
2281> 
2282Vyraen flashes a wide grin at Mazrian.
2283> 
2284Mazrian leans over and scratches Angel's back.
2285> 
2286> 
2287>

2294You nod to Mazrian.
2295> nod kae
2296You nod to Kaelie.
2297> 
2298Mazrian asks Nsar, "Isn't that exactly what a husk would say?"
2299> 
2300> 
2301> 
2302Aerathor asks Nsar, "You have no favor. You actually believe you are anything to her?"
2303> 
2304Aerathor laughs at Nsar.
2305> 
2306Mazrian nods to you.

2315Hebion says, "I would be willing to wager quite a sum of coins there is at least one who is not a husk who has used the power."
2316> 
2317> 
2318> 
2319Aerathor says to Hebion, "Not yet."

2329
2330> 
2331> 
2332> 
2333Hebion says to Aerathor, "I would say after several thousand years you can claim some certain amount of control over your own power."
2334> 
2335> 
2336> 
2337Aerathor says, "And I also heard once a philospher speaking of transitions. Only there is no transition for those who are cursed...they will never walk the starry path and transition."

2356Emyrose says, "That is at least partly the point of what some of them do."

2429You see Baleful Distortion Vyraen Raethal, Chaosbringer of Aesry Surlaenis'a, a S'Kra Mur.
2430His features are hidden behind a sinister white e'erdream mask crafted to resemble a stylized skull.  Meticulously placed black Elven gold inlays create the unnerving illusion of empty sockets, as well as a missing nose and jawbone.
2431He is in good shape.
2432
2433He is wearing a raven black diamond-hide top hat, a niveous spidersilk cloak adorned with tiny moonsilver spider charms, an elegantly tailored white shadesatin shirt, a thick diamond-hide wristcuff padded with layers of nightreaver silk, some unadorned raven black shadesatin trousers and a pair of matte black diamond-hide boots.
2434> 
2435>

2493Hebion says, "I thought we were here to discuss portents, not for a trial of souls."
2494> 
2495Aerathor says, "I sometimes have a feeling..sort of an idea that rips through me. That nothing had to exist...and yet it does. Such a blessing is this life...and still some scoff at it...say its not enough...\."
2496> 
2497Aerathor chortles softly at some secret joke.
2498> 
2499Marssi closes her eyes for a moment and grows still.

2504You whisper to Nsar, "Is Vyraen one of your guild?"

2522> 
2523Aerathor grins at Nsar.
2524> 
2525Vyraen softly says, "Ask those that died to Lyras if they felt blessed."

2647> 
2648>

2652Hebion says, "The ones with the pitchforks, fire, and inquisitors who like to punish people without proof."
2653> 
2654Mazrian shrugs.

2729(Miskton spends a moment glancing over the spot on the floor the prayer tapestry had been placed.)
2730> 
2731Aerathor says, "There is a gift we've been given, and duty is heavy like a mountain and death is light like a feather compared. Its a heavy burden to protect this world...this plane."

2768Raising its head, tongue flicking rapidly, your golden snake peers about from perch on your waist.  Blinking its bright, jewel-like eyes it undulates, making the golden scales shimmer.
2769
2770Undraping itself, your snake slithers around your waist and then winds its way down your leg, coming to rest curled happily about your ankle.

2879> 
2880> 
2881Rifkinn says, ".... Necromancy does."
2882> 
2883Mazrian says to Kaelie, "Maybe it's a meditation on mortal suffering.  You suffer, then you die and it's over."
