13wonder that is the Amaterasu. It truly is a marvel of technological as well as cultural 
14
15[10:20] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: advanceents...it is almost hard to believe just a short while ago the crew of the Lady A was battling a

18[10:21] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: their courage and perserverence we now stand with our allies the Avynei in a worldship so similar to one we 
19once visit long ago during the Iconian war..the ship is at once humble as it is humbling. 
20
21[10:22] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: For within the ship...we have found a lovely blend of the Avynei cultral past that remains n harmony with 
22their present. A look at a remarkable people who have come so far and endured so much...and 
23
24[10:23] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: yet stil remain in the service of other...selfless in their stand against the Dark and her minions. A goal 
25in my opinion that has become long overdue for those of us who have beenfited by such acts..

29
30[10:25] [DOIC] Talia@Isis.: to better understand our hosts...as for myself...I prepare for the reason why we have come here...and a 
31council meeting that awaits us...yet it is hard to not feel at home here...in many ways their

34ground...Talia out

352[11:20] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil interjects -> Any other questions of the aspects before we proceed through? 
353
354[11:21] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -looks back to her officer- Speak freely folks 
355
356[11:21] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -looks back to her officers- Speak freely folks* 
357
358[11:21] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Now is the time to ask 
359
360[11:22] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Courage... what is the full story to her losing her wing? We saw it as a vision, but it is 
361still something we need to piece together." 
362
363[11:22] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods to Ankos at this- 
364
365[11:23] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil ->  The Eldest daughter then...perhaps it is best to start with what you believe you know. -
366looks to Ankos- 
367
368[11:23] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: *feels rather unsure if to speak up, unlike the others seemingly, she has not had interactions 
369with these people before, and therefore knows less* 
370
371[11:25] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos stays silent for a moment, recollecting the story in his head.* 
372
373[11:26] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "There was this... warrior. With two wings. She fought these dark beings, and a small spirit 
374appeared to follow her." 
375
376[11:26] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: -The golden hewed..one winged Avynei angel statuesvasting her unwaiving gaze from hundreds of meters 
377above them- 
378
379[11:27] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk looks up.* 
380
381[11:27] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "She fought, and fought, losing her wing, but managing to protect the small spirit. While their 
382forces were losing, despite her best attempts..." *Ankos looks up* 
383
384[11:27] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Ah...that story goes back to when Order had all but won and was going to rule over all 
385existance. 
386
387[11:28] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai interjects -> As it should be... 
388
389[11:28] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren looked up at the statue.*  "By Order, you mean... the Dark?" 
390
391[11:28] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: The Xan'Zuul 
392
393[11:28] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods.* "That would be what they mean..." 
394
395[11:29] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Yes... but the angels of chaos. They somehow... managed to win. They all turned into one 
396massive, incredibly powerful being?" 
397
398[11:29] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> The apex of Order...is the Mother..looking up at the tallest statues..cast is black and puple 
399hewes with her raised massive two handed sword- 
400
401[11:29] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: *listens closely to what is being said, the puzzle slowly being pieced together* 
402
403[11:29] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: -Makai grunts- 
404
405[11:29] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -smirks again at Makai's grunt- 
406
407[11:30] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Win..no...let me recount what we believe. 
408
409[11:30] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos looks between The Mother and between Courage for a moment, before focusing at the 
410Priestess.* 
411
412[11:31] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> The Mother had many allies..The Dark being just one of them and they over time reigned in the 
413chaos and were threatening to destroy it utterly. 
414
415[11:32] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Her eldest was Her champion...right had and greatest warrior. 
416
417[11:33] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> both daughter believe and folllow their Mother, until the point when the youngest was plauged 
418with vision of what would happen when chaos was extinguished. 
419
420[11:34] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai ->  The Mother knew better to do that, it would have existed..only controlled. 
421
422[11:34] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos furrows his brow at the paradox of "Controlled chaos."* 
423
424[11:34] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Controlling chaos?"  *Eren raised a brow.* 
425
426[11:34] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil looked at Makai -> Reign in Chaos...what would that even be? 
427
428[11:34] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> Isolated 
429
430[11:34] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Yes...the Black Ocean was the epitamy of order -smirks- 
431
432[11:35] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Alone... 
433
434[11:35] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "It's easy to organise an empty room, Captain." 
435
436[11:35] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: My point Eren 
437
438[11:36] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods to her- 
439
440[11:36] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> The yonger foresaw the long..slow depline to apathy...living would slow being routine...the 
441Gifted in time would loose passion. 
442
443[11:37] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Eventually even stop carrying..and would not even care to live.  All existance slowly decayed 
444by apathy...the stars would fade one by one..until nothing. 
445
446[11:37] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods, thinking to what he saw in the storm, it slowly starting to make sense.* 
447
448[11:38] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Decay is a part of existance. 
449
450[11:38] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: -Yneil looks at the statue of the left as she speaks..the one always simmer and sifting..and radiants 
451a blue, golden light- 
452
453[11:38] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: In balance Mister Sevuk..in proper balance 
454
455[11:38] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Not full decay. Not while there is still life." 
456
457[11:39] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Mhm, but decay is also necessary for new things to spring up.  That's how the universe cycles 
458itself.  Civilisations get bloated and die, and the next generation of life form comes to take its place. 
459
460[11:39] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> People She saw would not care to go on living..let alone create new life... 
461
462[11:39] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods to Ankos and Eren at that- 
463
464[11:39] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "As the Captain said... in balance. Besides, Eren... the scale we speak of here is much 
465larger." 
466
467[11:40] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "It was an example, Counselor," *she said dryly.* 
468
469[11:40] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Balance is what the Lady represents. 
470
471[11:40] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai corrects -> Chaos incarnate. 
472
473[11:41] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: I don't know Makai..the Lady seems to be coming around 
474
475[11:41] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Despite the vailidty of Her foresight, but like some today would dismiss such claimed..no one 
476would listen to the youngest daught...except Her own Sister. 
477
478[11:42] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Without being able to convience thier Mother to change the course She had laid out of 
479them..they took flight. 
480
481[11:44] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> The Eldest had to fight Her way through the strongest beings of Order in Her betrayal and 
482taking flight with Her younger sister. 
483
484[11:45] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> We can only image the titanic battle the ensued..in where she lost Her win...but won thier 
485escape. 
486
487[11:45] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> She could have regrown Her wing...but decided to not to for reaons known only to Her. 
488
489[11:45] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: The sacrifice of courage... 
490
491[11:46] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods to Talia.* 
492
493[11:46] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> The two daughter reuinted with their Father and the few remaining Chaos aspects. 
494
495[11:46] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: If you are able to repair yourself physically, it is a curious decision to deny yourself the 
496opportunity. 
497
498[11:47] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Says the vulcan with the scar on his face?"  *Eren looked at Sevuk.* 
499
500[11:47] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Their father? This is the first time we... at least, I, hear of a being like that." 
501
502[11:47] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -looks to Seuk and runs a metallic fingers down the scar on the the left side of her own face silently- 
503
504[11:47] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Why indeed.  Could it be the Aspects only take an avator forms for our sakes? 
505
506[11:48] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> You are seeing what we Avynei depict the Asepcts as in phyical form...all sentient races have 
507their own beliefs and resprsentations. 
508
509[11:48] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -quirks a brow and her antennae rise at the mention of the father- 
510
511[11:49] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos looks to Talia, noting her reaction.* 
512
513[11:49] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: *keeps listening as more pieces fall into place* 
514
515[11:49] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: a scar can stand in my culture as a phsyical remind of a loss or lost ones...to remind other or inspire 
516such a rememberance 
517
518[11:50] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil continues as if reading Talia's mind -> The reuion with Thier Father was short as the Mother and 
519Her host came to reclaim Her rebellious Daughters. 
520
521[11:51] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "And here I was almost ready to believe these aspects were like the Nymina, all female.  At least 
522in visual presentation." 
523
524[11:51] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Same. I never knew of this Father." 
525
526[11:51] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: and yet Eren...we have seen a male aspect and fought him 
527
528[11:51] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Sevuk keeps trying to arrest him too 
529
530[11:52] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren blinked.* 
531
532[11:52] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -holds up her metalllc arm to Eren- 
533
534[11:52] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos blinks a bit as well.* 
535
536[11:52] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -wiggles her artifical fingers- 
537
538[11:52] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> The battle was a loosing one as no force could stand against the Mother. In their final act 
539of despiration all the Aspects of Chaos and even the Eldest daughter Herself sacrificed all they 
540
541[11:52] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: *looks rather confused* 
542
543[11:52] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Are you saying Mr. Diamond is their father?" 
544
545[11:53] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: No...not their father 
546
547[11:53] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I had literally no idea he was the same as them?" 
548
549[11:53] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> all they were and had in power into the youngest Daughter..She became Chaos incarnate. 
550
551[11:53] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I thought he was a... lesser being? Not an aspect?" 
552
553[11:53] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> A monster in ever sense of the word. 
554
555[11:53] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Sssh listen to the priestess 
556
557[11:53] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods apologetically.* 
558
559[11:54] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk furrows his brow at the mention of Diamond.* 
560
561[11:54] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> ...an uncontollable counter-balance to the unstoppable wave of Order. 
562
563[11:54] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -eyes Makai some at that- 
564
565[11:54] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> It darkened our Lady's heart seeing what how beloeved Daughters had become... 
566
567[11:55] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: To countr the horrors of the Lady's vision 
568
569[11:55] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -to Makai- 
570
571[11:55] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Indeed, She took on mor the moniker of the Dark Mother or Dark Lady ... 
572
573[11:56] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren rubbed her forehead some.* 
574
575[11:56] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos sighs.* 
576
577[11:56] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> You way wonder how if the Eldest sacrificed Herself is she depicted as living with the 
578others?  The Lady willed Her back into existance. 
579
580[11:57] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods with a degree of awe- An ability we have wittnessed ourselves 
581
582[11:58] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Such as the Balance of things has been for eons beyond remembering.  The harder one tries to 
583grip and control..the most chaos fights back against it... 
584
585[12:00] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil  looks to Makai ->  Even the Mother no longer carries the title of "dark"...so something has 
586eventuallt change. 
587
588[12:00] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Does that answer your question? -looking at Ankos- 
589
590[12:01] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -smiles some- As I said...she is coming around -to Makai- 
591
592[12:01] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Yes... Thank you, Priestess." 
593
594[12:01] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Anyone else before we proceed? 
595
596[12:01] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "Captain, I am not sure what you mean, coming around?" 
597
598[12:01] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I have one, but it may not pertain specifically to the Aspects?" 
599
600[12:02] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -looks back to her officers...then to Carina- The Lady is...seeing different perspectives recetntly 
601
602[12:02] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Please.. -looks at Eren- 
603
604[12:02] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "Then what was it that tried so desperately to try and stop us from getting here?" 
605
606[12:03] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Last night, we were looking around your village and we noticed several pieces of artwork that 
607were remarkably similar to those found in the primitive civilisations of several cultures in our galaxy." 
608
609[12:03] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> A pretender... 
610
611[12:04] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -finishes for Makai- ...who is keeping up the struggle from eons ago OPs 
612
613[12:04] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil ->  Indeed. -nods a listens to Eren- 
614
615[12:04] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "So we haven't been fighting the dark mother all this time? 
616
617[12:04] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos shakes his head at Lonah.* 
618
619[12:04] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -shakes her head- Of course not 
620
621[12:05] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I only wished to ask if you've had any hand in ensuring the survival of some of our species over 
622the course of our development.  I believe we theorised you may have even assisted in turning the... 
623
624[12:05] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai scoff at the idea of fighitng the Mother -> That was funny. 
625
626[12:05] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "A pretender? I think I am having trouble keeping track of the players" 
627
628[12:05] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: outcomes of some of our near-extinction events.  Are we on the mark?" 
629
630[12:05] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk quirks an brow at their acknowledgement of humor.* 
631
632[12:06] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -to Carina- Then wait for Eren to get her answer Lieutenant and ask for clarification from our hosts 
633
634[12:06] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> You have already puzzled much of this together Eren...you own Sentinel discovered on of our 
635lost guardians that had been in statsis from soem 10,000 years. 
636
637[12:07] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren tilted her head at this.*  "They have?  I wasn't aware." 
638
639[12:07] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> We have experience in battling this "Darkness" 
640
641[12:07] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -to Eren- Back near New Romulas...years before the Iconian war 
642
643[12:08] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "So you were saving us in the hopes that some day we would take to the stars and assist you in 
644this war?" 
645
646[12:08] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Indeed.  Since we unleashed it upon ourselves and watch it spread forth..we have made it our 
647mission to counter it the best we can. 
648
649[12:08] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> Using different methods... 
650
651[12:08] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: and yet unified in purpose 
652
653[12:10] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Even moreso now, as we reunite as a people, much like the Aspects have been... 
654
655[12:11] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> We have no motive to have other join in any crusade of effort of ours..only to give the 
656Gifted the chace their are due on our Lady's Light. 
657
658[12:11] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren rubbed her chin at this.*  "The Gifted?  Those with consciousness?" 
659
660[12:13] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> yes...sentient life...the Aspect give meaning where there was none. 
661
662[12:13] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Many sentients find meaning in many different things. 
663
664[12:14] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren smiled softly at this.*  "I believe I understand, then.  Thank you." 
665
666[12:14] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> The fact you can believe and derive meaning if the Gift -stares hard at Sevuk- 
667
668[12:14] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk returns the stare stoicly.* 
669
670[12:15] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos smiles and nods at the Avynei as well, looking at them with even more respect than 
671before.* 
672
673[12:15] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> The Gift is as much a burden as it is boon...some chose to try to deny it -looking at Sevuk- 
674
675[12:15] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk tilts his head slightly.* 
676
677[12:16] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -smiles at this- 
678
679[12:16] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Mh.  It's hard not to envy non-sentient life sometimes, the simplicity of it.  Hardship is the 
680burden that comes with awareness." 
681
682[12:16] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: -looks stoic and perhaps even slightly unhappy- 
683
684[12:17] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> It can be, thus why you see even hear more spiritual connections to a simply lifestyle. 
685
686[12:18] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Much like many enjoy on our homeworld. 
687
688[12:18] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Well, had thought she understood what was going on, now is lost.  Maybe setting fire to everything 
689is a better solution.* 
690
691[12:18] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Hence the dicotomny 
692
693[12:18] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "A life before technology.  People seek it out even on our worlds.  A return to simpler times... 
694an age of innocence." 
695
696[12:19] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Yes... but yet, we have found the balance you have, even if at a lower level. Technology to 
697protect those who wish to throw it away." 
698
699[12:19] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Then you understand.  Many Avynei families raise thier children on our homeworld..in such a 
700simply, rural exsitance as the foundation..when the children are older the families leave to other 
701
702[12:20] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: colonies..or world ships to a more modern lifestyle to make way for other families for raise child 
703there...also many elderly live their..to enjoy 
704
705[12:21] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: thier twlight and pass on thier marvels to the young. 
706
707[12:21] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: *listens while patiently waiting for her chance* 
708
709[12:21] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren nodded.*  "I'm certain it makes their adult life feel like a dream one is only just 
710awakening from, no?" 
711
712[12:23] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Hard to saw..it varies from individual.  I found it dull, it was not until I was older and in 
713religious training that to appreciated it. 
714
715[12:24] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "To each their own, Priestess.  Another perk of consciousness.  But I'm sure the others had more 
716pressing questions." 
717
718[12:24] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil nods and waits- 
719
720[12:26] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Carina? You had a question? 
721
722[12:26] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Do you... keep a record, of the Gifted ones you've helped? If they knew of this, it would 
723strengthen our alliance's bonds immensely." 
724
725[12:26] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> We do. 
726
727[12:26] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> but why would we share such a thing? 
728
729[12:27] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: *looks around briefly* "I have to admit, these things about the Aspects, the daughters, the 
730lady and the mother still confused, and this pretender that I actually thought was the mother, during what-> 
731
732[12:27] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Because many would be grateful to you. Be inspired to aid you, in turn. It is time more effort 
733was made on our part too." 
734
735[12:27] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: What you said, it sounded at times like the lady and the mother are the same, but at other 
736times like they are two different people, I would like to get a handle on who is who? 
737
738[12:28] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> I beleive you will get that cleared up shortly -looking at Carina- 
739
740[12:30] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil looking at Ankos -> Why would we want to engratiate anyone.  We do what we do in service, to try 
741to persuade or alter a people's chosen destiny would betray that service. 
742
743[12:31] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods.* "It does make sense, indeed... but many historians would be grateful for 
744information like that about their civilization's development... but no matter. I understand what you mean." *He > 
745
746[12:31] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Smiles to Yneil.* 
747
748[12:31] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: *nods her head, hoping her lack of knowledge won't just hold her back from understanding* 
749
750[12:32] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai looking at Ankos -> Then the seekers will find their answers if they have the ability and 
751persistance. 
752
753[12:32] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> and the Luck of the Lady. 
754
755[12:32] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -smiles at that- 
756
757[12:32] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods at Makai.* 
758
759[12:35] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Any other questions? -to her officers- 
760
761[12:35] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos shakes his head.* "None.. for the moment." 
762
763[12:35] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "Don't know until I know the answer to what I asked, and that seems to be coming" 
764
765[12:35] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil looking at Carina dn Lonah->  I sense your confusion.  I can offer you have sensed the Mother 
766already and Her avatar as been before you on Adagio.. 
767
768[12:37] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "I don't believe I seen this Avatar of the mother? least not that I know of, I don't even know 
769if the lady and the mother are the same" 
770
771[12:37] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: They are Ops 
772
773[12:37] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> It depends on persective... 
774
775[12:38] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "ANd they are not our enemy?" 
776
777[12:38] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "I have no concerns, captain. All I must know is how I can do my duty?" 
778
779[12:38] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Indeed..as I has opened..the Aspect shift who is seen in the forefront based of perspective. 
780
781[12:39] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: No...they are not Ops....the Mother...has accepted a challenge since we engaged her once...to perhaps 
782observe and reassess how she sees the balance and her daughters 
783
784[12:39] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: She has put us through several such tests and challenges since our first encoutner with her 
785
786[12:40] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "and the storm was not her doing?" 
787
788[12:40] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: No 
789
790[12:40] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: She and this Dark are wo seperate beings 
791
792[12:40] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: She and this Dark are two seperate beings 
793
794[12:40] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "I see, I thought it was, guess I ow the mother an appologi should I ever meet her" 
795
796[12:41] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Im sure she would love that 
797
798[12:41] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil chuckles are Carina -> Of...you have met Her... 
799
800[12:41] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "I have?" 
801
802[12:41] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> The Aspects reside in each of us..always... 
803
804[12:42] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Tries to roll her eyes. Relgious dogma is grating.* 
805
806[12:42] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Maybe you have no had the pleasure of an avatar, physicaly reprentation, but that is 
807somethign else entirely. 
808
809[12:42] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "One of the times we encountered the Dark, she showed me images of myself and my past host, as 
810well as this host's mother.  They're... omnipresent, I believe." 
811
812[12:43] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "She showed me images of myself and my family, took me to places of my childhood... so yes... 
813they truly are with us. Always." 
814
815[12:43] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> When even you crave for things to be orderly, to make sense, to be fair and just..hope for a 
816safe ans secure future.  You veneate the Mother. 
817
818[12:44] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "Such things confused me, I know more of the norse gods of ancient earth then this" 
819
820[12:44] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren gave her an odd look.* 
821
822[12:44] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Well you are new Ops...you'll catch up 
823
824[12:45] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "I try captain, I try" 
825
826[12:45] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "This is my fourth crash course, and I still have much to learn. So relax." 
827
828[12:45] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> They are no gods.  They are the ones that brought emotion to existance and bestowed it upon 
829the rest of us... 
830
831[12:45] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "She showed you things she picked from your mind. That's a  palour trick." 
832
833[12:45] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods to Lonah- 
834
835[12:45] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "It is not. She took me to betazed. I even brought back a fruit with myself." 
836
837[12:46] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren rubbed her face a moment.* 
838
839[12:46] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "She took you home? A starship can do the same thing." 
840
841[12:47] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "And yet she is not a starship. Nor can it do so instantaneously." 
842
843[12:48] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Any number of strange lifeforms can replicate that feat. You want to venerate them as well?" 
844
845[12:48] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: and at one time...none of us coud travel faster than light Counselor 
846
847[12:49] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "No one is talking about venerating the Dark, just acknowledging that she's a very advanced life 
848form." 
849
850[12:49] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Venerate? Perhaps not, Commander. Admit their power? Yes. I will not dismiss it as parlour 
851tricks." *He then nods at Talia.* "I am not saying it is anything... supernatural." 
852
853[12:49] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> you can debate thi later amoung yourself...we shoujld proceed. 
854
855[12:49] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Agreed -nods- 
856
857[12:49] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Indeed, Eren." *He then nods at Makai.* 
858
859[12:50] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "SO if I wanted to applologise to the mother, all I would need to do would be to feel it? to 
860think it?" 
861
862[12:50] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: -The party proceeds through the gateway- 
863
864[12:51] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren stepped calmly through the next gate.* 
865
866[12:51] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *So did Ankos.* 
867
868[12:51] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: As the party exists in the grand Temple hall..music plays  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vH5eczBhI9c 
869
870[12:51] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -enters the portala s she did before- 
871
872[12:51] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk follows.* 
873
874[12:52] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Heads forward with the rest.* 
875
876[12:52] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: *follows after, still a fair deal confused* 
877
878[12:53] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: Massive of miliary formations march on patrol and in excerise.  The paathway and statues of Avyeni 
879exteneding hundred of meters ahead. 
880
881[12:53] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> The statues are of our heroes and heroines through the ages. 
882
883[12:53] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -her antennae raise some impressed, yet feeling more at home now- 
884
885[12:54] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Marvelous... so many..." 
886
887[12:54] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren eyeballed the exercising Avynei with an appreciative smirk.* 
888
889[12:55] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: *looks around at the statues, a bit in awe* 
890
891[12:55] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: The party is heading towards a towering temple ahead that  seems to extend as high as they can see in 
892the darkened "sky" above. 
893
894[12:56] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -follows theirs escorts to the temple, her eyes sweeping over the training formations as they proceed- 
895
896[12:56] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: The Temple has statues of the Aspect again adoring it and, most are of the aspect of Order, the Mother. 
897
898[12:57] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos looks at the statues with respect, before continuing after their avynei allies.* 
899
900[12:57] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: As the party makes it way into the Temple they notice the carpet is a deep purple with interiving 
901black, gold embrodery. 
902
903[12:58] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren made a note of the carpet for when she next decorated her quarters.* 
904
905[12:58] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: Crystally adore the walls of various colorings and to thier left they notice a massive collisums that a 
906crowd is seated in as loud cheering is heard. 
907
908[12:59] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: -Quietly- "The arena you spoke of?" 
909
910[12:59] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -looks over the glowing crystals, runnng a finger over her own artifical arm some0 
911
912[1:00] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> The would be the Temple of the Mother.  It is used to test mettle of conviction, settle 
913dispute, honor the Mother with displays of power. 
914
915[1:00] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk observes the crystals with mild curiousity.* 
916
917[1:00] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I see. Are the fights... to the death?" 
918
919[1:01] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> Not usually. 
920
921[1:01] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Respectible." Nodding her head at the areana. 
922
923[1:02] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods to Lonah and Makai- Indeed....it is how my people settle such things 
924
925[1:02] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "An... alien concept to me. 
926
927[1:02] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> The difference we held so tightly to as a people when it devided us was much like the conflict 
928of the Aspects. 
929
930[1:03] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods at that- 
931
932[1:03] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Knowing the burden we all carry, is it better to be a strong, forceful hand, or a hidden 
933supporting one? 
934
935[1:04] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "That's the thing about hands, you get two of them." 
936
937[1:04] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *She grinned.* 
938
939[1:04] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Can it not be both? -nods to Eren- 
940
941[1:04] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "I was about to ask, why not both, myself" 
942
943[1:05] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Clever as the answer, it eluded us at the time.  So devived we went out seperate ways after 
944much self induced suffering. 
945
946[1:05] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Until recently of course 
947
948[1:06] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> Not recently as much.more even we in time saw value in the more subtle approach. 
949
950[1:07] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> As we saw more value in appliying direct force at times.  It be because we both saw a middle 
951ground on our own..they the bridge to reunite was reforged. 
952
953[1:08] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Admirable... history knows many peoples who let divides like that ruin them." 
954
955[1:08] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> Emotions can get carried away in each of us...also a mirror of the Aspects...emotions can tend 
956to go to extremes. 
957
958[1:09] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Indeed..." 
959
960[1:09] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren grimaced slightly.* 
961
962[1:10] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> Which is not a bad thing be default, when one talks of Hope or Courage it wojld not due to 
963have half measure. 
964
965[1:12] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "It nearly ruined Us." 
966
967[1:13] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Us as well CAG -nods to her- 
968
969[1:13] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: The party can here and see a one and one battle about to begin in the areana below. 
970
971[1:13] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "And yet, you close yourself off to all... "Illogical" emotion and belief... something we have 
972discovered to be very important here in the LMC." 
973
974[1:13] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren peered over at the battle curiously.* 
975
976[1:13] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk studies the battle participants closely.* 
977
978[1:13] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos looks down into the arena as well.* 
979
980[1:13] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -turned her gaze to the battle- 
981
982[1:14] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: The annoucer states "Made you deeds be seen as worthy in our Mother's sight" as the battle begins. 
983
984[1:14] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "Do you refer to Andoria, Captain? I was referring to Vulcan." 
985
986[1:15] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Honestly, it could apply to countless planets." 
987
988[1:15] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods as she watches- I figured as much CAG...and yes...we too went through such a dark period 
989
990[1:15] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods to Eren's comment- 
991
992[1:15] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: The two armor Avynei while not seeming to carry range weapon are fighint projected energy at each other 
993nother the less as the to testing for reflect and opening. 
994
995[1:16] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: *watches the fighting, as they go along* 
996
997[1:16] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Feeling one another out..guaging their attacks -nods- 
998
999[1:16] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Beautiful weapons... how exactly do they work? Crystals in the gauntlets, perhaps?" 
1000
1001[1:17] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: Two two combatants in a burst of blinding speed close the gap on each other and their melee wepaon 
1002collide in a loud, thunderous clap. 
1003
1004[1:18] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos closes his eyes, flinching a bit at the noise.* 
1005
1006[1:18] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: It is so loud is sounds like thuderclaps of a near by lightning strike. 
1007
1008[1:18] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *Sinez was indeed the very silent caboose in the back this entire time* 
1009
1010[1:18] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren jumped at the bombastic sound.* 
1011
1012[1:19] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren had been pretending Sinez wasn't even there that entire time.* 
1013
1014[1:19] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -curls her antennae inwardly at the boom- 
1015
1016[1:19] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos may have been distracted by all the pretty people in dress uniforms, and all the 
1017beautiful avynei... who cares about Sinez?* 
1018
1019[1:20] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: *he definitely felt naked without his invisiblity cloak* 
1020
1021[1:20] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: There is a short exhange of blow until one of the combatants swings a weapon so hard the other literally 
1022is sent flying through the air several hundred meters. 
1023
1024[1:20] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Ignores Sinze as a rule.* 
1025
1026[1:20] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos gasps at that.* 
1027
1028[1:21] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: The flying combatant eventally rights theselves and dodges a furry of energy attakcs and it lands 
1029sliding on the ground, prjecting a froce wall stopping the barrage. 
1030
1031[1:22] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: -sighs a bit. going back to being a wallflower- 
1032
1033[1:22] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Admirable -nods- 
1034
1035[1:23] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Admirable? Absolutely incredible. I have only seen things like this on holodecks..." 
1036
1037[1:23] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -just smiles at that- 
1038
1039[1:23] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> That could go on for some time, perhaps later you can enjoy watching a match..or even a mass 
1040melee...or if you have the mettle...step in and be judged by the Mother Herself. 
1041
1042[1:24] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: I accept such a challenge Makai 
1043
1044[1:24] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos blinks at Talia.* 
1045
1046[1:24] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I'm afraid the only battles I wage are the intellectual ones, but we've plenty of people who 
1047would be more than happy to join you."  *She nodded at Talia with that.* 
1048
1049[1:24] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: I would be honored to do so 
1050
1051[1:25] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai grins at her -> Good.  There might be something to you yet. 
1052
1053[1:25] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "I am more a sword figher myself" 
1054
1055[1:25] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -smiles at that and bows her head to him- 
1056
1057[1:25] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I have to decline, as Eren did... we are more people of the pen, than of the sword." 
1058
1059[1:25] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Victims." 
1060
1061[1:25] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -chuckles at Lonah's comment- 
1062
1063[1:26] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Not fully, Commander... I can still crash a ship telepathically." 
1064
1065[1:26] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Two hands Chief...everybody needs two hands 
1066
1067[1:27] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: It would be agreeable. 
1068
1069[1:27] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren smiled at that.* 
1070
1071[1:28] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -looks back once more to the fighting below with great interest for a moment more- Shall we press on then? 
1072
1073[1:28] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Yneil -> This is not the only section of the Temple.  Each of the mian four Aspects have thier 
1074sanctuary here.  This happens to the the Mother's. 
1075
1076[1:29] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Will we get to see them all, Priestess?" 
1077
1078[1:29] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "I am curious captain, weapon of choice?" 
1079
1080[1:29] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -to Carina- My guantlets and my heart Ops -nods to her- 
1081
1082[1:30] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai ->  It is as she says.  It is here where you can mingle as you captain and her first attend the 
1083war concil when it is time..but for now you have free reign of the Temple complex. 
1084
1085[1:30] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I will take a walk through the other Aspects' sanctuaries, then... if I am allowed, of course." 
1086
1087[1:30] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Well, shall we check out the rest of them, then?" 
1088
1089[1:31] [DOIC1] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai -> We have military drills and excerises.  The Temples of each Aspect. Muesums and history...and 
1090modeest refreshements. 
1091
1092[1:31] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods to her officer- I encourage you all to vists all four of the temples 
1093
1094[1:32] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "That is what I plan on doing, Captain... maybe see the museums afterwards." 
1095
1096[1:32] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: -transisitioning or open social here for people to move about.. 
1097
1098[1:32] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods to him- Good Counselor explore as much as possible..it us why we are all out here 
1099
1100[1:33] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Well, to number two we go."  *Eren strolled right along.* 
1101
1102[1:33] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods to Talia.* "Indeed." *He then followed Eren.* 
1103
1104[1:34] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Rolls her neck and looks back to the areana to watch the fight.* 
1105
1106[1:34] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -turns her gae back to the arena as well- 
1107
1108[1:34] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: *looks around not really sure what she is suposed to do* 
1109
1110[1:35] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Ops to me -gesturs her over- 
1111
1112[1:35] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: *raises an eyebrow coming over to the captain* 
1113
1114[1:35] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "Captain?" 
1115
1116[1:35] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Which temple next?" *Ankos looks around for statues or anything to suggest which way is which.* 
1117
1118[1:36] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -smirks some- New civiliations...somehwhat a bore to you Liuetenant? -teases some- 
1119
1120[1:36] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Closest one?"  *Eren kept walking to exactly that.* 
1121
1122[1:36] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Raises his shoulders a bit, following.* 
1123
1124[1:37] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: The party will see a golden temple ahead and in the distance something looking to only have one wing. 
1125
1126[1:37] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "A bore, no ma'am, I just don't understand things, answers are...vague and lean towards, you 
1127will know later" 
1128
1129[1:37] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Courage it is..." *Ankos approaches the temple respectfully.* 
1130
1131[1:38] [DOIC1] Sinez@the5of435: Can't fault her for being somewhat eager.. *he added just before he walked off* 
1132
1133[1:38] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I really should write the different names down." 
1134
1135[1:38] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -smiles- You are standing in the very center of the cultural halls of history and religion of our most 
1136dedicated ally...if you have a question...ask 
1137
1138[1:38] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "So should I..." 
1139
1140[1:39] [DOIC1] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk follows Ankos and Eren, studying the temple.* 
1141
1142[1:39] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -smiles as another massive blow is delivered below- 
1143
1144[1:39] [DOIC] Xaelei@Arnimane: As the party draws near each of them experinces a sense of fear of something unqiue to themselves..as if 
1145something inside of them is affaid to get close to the temple..let alone enter it. 
1146
1147[1:39] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "It's hard not to get them jumbled in your head when they're all referred to as 'the eldest 
1148daughter' or 'the dark lady, who is not the dark, or the---'"  *SHe trailed off, stopping in her tracks.* 
1149
1150[1:40] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "I did, was told I already seen the mother, which I am still sure I never have, I asked about 
1151the pretender and was told it would be made clear, but now we are to be here while you are at a warcouncil 
1152
1153[1:40] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos gently goes to grab onto Eren's forearm.* "Do not enter..." 
1154
1155[1:40] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: You were a tad vague and they misnderstood you Ops...when yu daid you owed her an apology 
1156
1157[1:40] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Rellgious people." Shrugs her shoulders. 
1158
1159[1:40] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "...You feel that, too?" 
1160
1161[1:40] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Mr. Sevuk... d-do you feel it?" 
1162
1163[1:40] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: they then assumed you had seen her physically 
1164
1165[1:41] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods at Eren.* "...Wait... The fights. They are a test of character and devotion to the 
1166mother, yes?" 
1167
1168[1:41] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Also I believe you are confusing the Lady and the Mother 
1169
1170[1:41] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "What if the test of character here is entering the temple itself... as a way to honour 
1171Courage?" 
1172
1173[1:41] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "You think this is a test?" 
1174
1175[1:41] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "It would make sense." 
1176
1177[1:41] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "I likely am, and I thought you said they were the same?" 
1178
1179[1:41] [DOIC1] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Defeat your fear to honour courage... a bit on the nose." 
1180
1181[1:42] [DOIC1] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Indeed..." *Ankos sighs, shivering a bit.* 
1182
1183[1:42] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: No....i know them to be seperate Ops 
1184
1185[1:42] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Yes the Mother can be addressed as the Lady...but that is also a term to relate to her youngest... 
1186
1187[1:42] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Well, I guess the only way to do that is to carry on, no?" 
1188
1189[1:42] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: SO when discussng the youngest daughter...the Lady becomes the Mother 
1190
1191[1:43] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Indeed..." *Ankos takes a small, faltering step forwards, but still a step.* 
1192
1193[1:43] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "That is really confusing" 
1194
1195[1:43] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Why? 
1196
1197[1:43] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Are they both not Ladies? 
1198
1199[1:44] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "I have suggestions for new names, but I don't want to cause a diplomatic incident." 
1200
1201[1:44] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: A Lady of Order...the Mother...a Lady of Chaos...the youngst Daughter... 
1202
1203[1:44] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Coming, Sevuk?"  *She shot a smirk over her shoulder to mask her own trepidation before moving 
1204forward with Ankos.* 
1205
1206[1:44] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "They are, but shifting who you use the pronoun for in a conversation without telling ytou are 
1207makes it hard to understand which you are talking about" 
1208
1209[1:44] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -smiles at Lonah- Oh? 
1210
1211[1:44] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: (anyone approaching the Courage temple please rolls againt Mind stat) 
1212
1213[1:45] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -eyes Carina- but it is clear now yes? 
1214
1215[1:45] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "More clear, but far from clear" 
1216
1217[1:45] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: -hjas continued to hang around Lonah- 
1218
1219[1:45] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: How is it unclear Lieutenant? 
1220
1221[1:45] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "Lonah. We... never speak. Do we." 
1222
1223[1:45] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: -Ankos is petrified with in inner fear an cannot seem to step foreward- 
1224
1225[1:46] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Looks at T'Ruri.* "I don't think we do. You're usally flying around and I'm walking." 
1226
1227[1:46] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: The Lady of Order...is the Mother to the Lady of Chaos 
1228
1229[1:46] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "We should speak more." 
1230
1231[1:46] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "I still don't know when they said the lady during their explination when they were refering to 
1232which" 
1233
1234[1:46] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren didn't seem to notice Ankos was petrified as she walked forward.* 
1235
1236[1:46] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "Nor how the pretender fits in" 
1237
1238[1:46] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Here they address the daughter as the youngest daughter 
1239
1240[1:46] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos breaths heavily and starts shaking like a leaf, frozen in place.* "Must... go on... but 
1241can't." 
1242
1243[1:47] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "It's all in your head, kid..." 
1244
1245[1:47] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I know... but... betazoid. Everything we feel is... so much stronger." *He desperately tries to 
1246get a hold of himself and continue onwards, not wanting to admit defeat in front of the avynei.* 
1247
1248[1:47] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Well the prentder....was obviously one of the host of Order....who just never stopped fighting after the 
1249Lady of Order stopped her campaign after facing her daughters 
1250
1251[1:48] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: This Dark...is still pressing for total order 
1252
1253[1:48] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "We're talking now. How are things with you?" 
1254
1255[1:48] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Since this Dark...is not the Lady or Order...she is called here the Prentender 
1256
1257[1:48] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "So you're more used to it, aren't you?  Come on... you expect to honour Courage crying like 
1258that?" 
1259
1260[1:48] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "I am well. This has been educational, but I fear that i have little to input. I feel like a... 
1261Wallflower?" 
1262
1263[1:49] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "so its one of them? or rather like them?" 
1264
1265[1:49] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "You are looking well, however. Quite well." 
1266
1267[1:49] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Obviously not as powerful as the Lady of Order..perhaps one of her 'generals' or 'warlords 
1268
1269[1:49] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: so to speak 
1270
1271[1:49] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos tries to will himself onwards, inwardly agreeing with Eren's words.* 
1272
1273[1:50] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Its obvious that one such faction is still fighting 
1274
1275[1:50] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *nods her head.* "Times like this, it's just good to listen to what they have to say." 
1276
1277[1:50] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *A smile broke out on her face then as she looked back at Ankos, moving back over to him and 
1278offering a hand.*  "Come on, kid.  Show them you're worthy." 
1279
1280[1:51] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos reaches to take Eren's hand and smiles.* "Thanks..." *With her help, he manages to keep 
1281walking.* 
1282
1283[1:51] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren turned back and lead Ankos to the temple.* 
1284
1285[1:52] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "I see..." *still looks confused about something* 
1286
1287[1:52] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *He turns to look at Sevuk, in case the vulcan needs help too.* 
1288
1289[1:52] [DOIC2] Talia@Isis.: -A Lovely Avynei in golden robes watches their progress- 
1290
1291[1:52] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -smirks- But... 
1292
1293[1:52] [DOIC2] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk proceeds forward slowly.* 
1294
1295[1:52] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos gives Sevuk a supportive smile and continues onwards with Eren, noticing the Avynei 
1296woman.* 
1297
1298[1:53] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren offered her other hand, in case Sevuk needed it.* 
1299
1300[1:53] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: -teh party manages to enter the temple together..and once past the entry..the fear has past..now only 
1301constant sense of courage remains..it is present all aroudn them...and something else..another 
1302
1303[1:54] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: emotion...one that seemed out of place at first feeling...compassion. 
1304
1305[1:54] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "Are you well then? How is your life?" 
1306
1307[1:54] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren drew in a deep breath and exhaled it as they made it.* 
1308
1309[1:54] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos smiles, the fear passing, as he visibly relaxed.* 
1310
1311[1:55] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: an Avynei priestess welcome them to the Temple of Courage and Compassion. 
1312
1313[1:55] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "My life is fine. I have no real complaints to speak of. What do you think about all of this?" 
1314
1315[1:55] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: *raises an eyebrow* 
1316
1317[1:55] [DOIC2] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk does not take the hand, giving a polite nod as he looks up at the Avynei.* 
1318
1319[1:55] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -eyes Carina- You still seem confused Lieutenant...what about? 
1320
1321[1:56] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos bows, smiling to the priestess.* "Thank you." 
1322
1323[1:56] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren released Ankos' hand, gazing around the temple in wonder before her gaze settled upon the 
1324priestess with a polite bow of her own head.* 
1325
1326[1:57] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "I do not like it. I do not like being surrounded by beings of such incredible power. It makes me 
1327feel that they may not let us stand on our own." 
1328
1329[1:57] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "Well if the Lady is more powerful then the dark, how come they could not stop the storm that 
1330blocked us?" 
1331
1332[1:57] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -quirks a brow at T'ruri at that- 
1333
1334[1:57] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -to Carina- Why would she? 
1335
1336[1:57] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Courage... and compassion... I guess it makes sense..." *Ankos marvels at the temple, looking 
1337around.* 
1338
1339[1:57] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "Seems we did fine without so far." 
1340
1341[1:58] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "well you said it yourself, we are allies, or supposed to be" 
1342
1343[1:58] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "But we have their notice now." 
1344
1345[1:58] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Priestess -> Have you come seeking or  simple curoisity? 
1346
1347[1:58] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: The Avynei are our allies Lieutenant....not the Mother...she is...an aquientance currently 
1348
1349[1:59] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "We have the notice of a great many advance races. At least the Avynei are helpful." 
1350
1351[1:59] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "A bit of both... Curiosity is seeking knowledge, no?" 
1352
1353[1:59] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I think courage is something we all should be seeking these days," *Eren chuckled.* 
1354
1355[1:59] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods to Eren.* "Indeed..." 
1356
1357[1:59] [DOIC2] Sevuk@ClingingMars: To seek knowledge. 
1358
1359[1:59] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "Aha, that was one of the things I did not catch from their rather vague answers" 
1360
1361[1:59] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: These ..beings...are not Avynei Carina...they are worshipped by them...honored 
1362
1363[2:00] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: The Priestess wa not vague Lieutenant 
1364
1365[2:00] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Makai...is a warrior...his asnwers are generally curt and blunt 
1366
1367[2:01] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "It seemed vague and confusesing to me, like they were assuming prior knowledge" 
1368
1369[2:02] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -smirks- You are new to the Lady A Carina...we some of us...have been on this trail with these stories for 
1370more than a decade now 
1371
1372[2:02] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: You are bound to be somewhat beynd in your experiences 
1373
1374[2:02] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Priestess -> Here you can gain a better understanding of your own sense of courage and compassion, 
1375perhaps through trials or reflection.  One can offer prayers. 
1376
1377[2:02] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "We should tread carefully." 
1378
1379[2:02] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: You are bound to be somewhat behnd in your experiences* 
1380
1381[2:02] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: "No doubts about that." 
1382
1383[2:02] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -eyes T'Ruri- Paranoid CAG? 
1384
1385[2:03] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Are there any... particular prayers? Or do you offer what you feel? I would like to pray... and 
1386then perhaps, undergo a trial." 
1387
1388[2:03] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "What sort of trials do you offer?  Like visions?" 
1389
1390[2:03] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "Yes Ma'am, which is why I am now feeling a bit lost and without direction, not bored" 
1391
1392[2:03] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Did they not earn your trust at the Battle of Angels? The Seige of Earth? The battle of the Citadel? The 
1393battle over the Xert Outpost? 
1394
1395[2:04] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Priestess -> Since you are seekers..then do you know at the most fundimental level, Courage is the 
1396antithesis of what we a facing out here? 
1397
1398[2:04] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -to Carina- I am happy to bring you up to speed Ops...its what captains tend to do 
1399
1400[2:04] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren considered that.*  "Because the Dark uses fear as one of her main weapons." 
1401
1402[2:05] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods.* "She thrives on it." 
1403
1404[2:05] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Priestess -> Trails of unique..each soul has it own scares and the trails as based on on challenges to 
1405overcome them 
1406
1407[2:05] [DOIC2] Sevuk@ClingingMars: To allow the emotion of fear to consume you is illogical. 
1408
1409[2:06] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "That it is, Sevuk.  Fear is not a logical thing, most of the time." 
1410
1411[2:06] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Illogical, perhaps. But sometimes... inescapable. Which is why I want to try and... better 
1412prepare myself. For next time." 
1413
1414[2:06] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Priestess -> I would  counter fear is a natural reaction to harm and as sentient beings can remember 
1415and anticiapte, it is a natural reaction to believed harm. 
1416
1417[2:06] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "and you are doing a good job captain, even if I am a bit thick headed" *she smirks at the 
1418captain* "but I am still to figure what I do now,you have important councils, I am unsure what I should do" 
1419
1420[2:07] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "That is also true..." 
1421
1422[2:07] [DOIC2] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Perhaps a natural reaction, but it would be advantegous to control the emotion rather than allowing 
1423it to control you. 
1424
1425[2:07] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Priestess looking at Sevuk -> You fear of lossing control is what governs your behavior. 
1426
1427[2:07] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren nodded.*  "Like a fear of heights... it's obviously born from self-preservation.  Falling 
1428from high places is dangerous." 
1429
1430[2:07] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Why not meet with these people and see their temple and histories? ask them your questions? 
1431
1432[2:08] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "And yet..." *He looks a bit to Eren.* "It can be overcome. Whether by your own mental 
1433preparation, or with somebody else's aid." 
1434
1435[2:08] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: So when such a time comes....you may have answers ive over looked 
1436
1437[2:08] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Potentially, sure." 
1438
1439[2:08] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "They won't see my ignorance as offending?" 
1440
1441[2:08] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: and I d not think that you are thick heaed Ops..if  thought so I would tell you -smiles- 
1442
1443[2:09] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Priestess -> Courage and compassion are often is synergy. 
1444
1445[2:09] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Of course not...these people...the temple priestess...its what they are here for..to teach 
1446
1447[2:09] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Indeed..." 
1448
1449[2:09] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: CAG? 
1450
1451[2:09] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Although... aren't fear and compassion in just as much synergy?" 
1452
1453[2:10] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "One of the moments in my life I was most afraid, I believed I would be the cause of death of 
1454many, including my loved one." 
1455
1456[2:10] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Priestess -> All the emotions have a complicated, syngery and contradicatiy relationship 
1457
1458[2:11] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "Apologies captain. Lost in thought. And perhaps." 
1459
1460[2:11] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: *nods her head at the captain* "I will do my best, as I do in all things" 
1461
1462[2:11] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "Perhaps I am paranoid. But I do not wish to be caught unawares." 
1463
1464[2:11] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: *looks at T'Ruri* 
1465
1466[2:11] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -narrows her eyes- Based on what foundation is your paranoia? 
1467
1468[2:11] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "Their capabilities." 
1469
1470[2:11] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -to Carina- Soemthing i have learned not to doubt you on Lieutenant 
1471
1472[2:11] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Elaboarte 
1473
1474[2:12] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Priestess -> Courage is typially derived in over coming fear ansd taking action in service of 
1475another...many time a risk and putting their needs above your own. 
1476
1477[2:12] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: =To T'Ruri- 
1478
1479[2:12] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "They are quite more advanced technologically, and potentially biologically. What are we to them?" 
1480
1481[2:12] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: 0immediately- Proven Allies 
1482
1483[2:13] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren nodded, taking in the sights of the temple as she considered this.* 
1484
1485[2:13] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Priestess ->  On you vessels other count on you do perform you duty...and through the fear of death and 
1486the unknown..you all find the courage to do what you can because other are counting on you. 
1487
1488[2:14] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "As you say, captain. I shall keep my caution." 
1489
1490[2:14] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods his silent agreement.* 
1491
1492[2:14] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -narrows her head- See that is right where it remains CAG 
1493
1494[2:14] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "What would I gain from sabotage?" 
1495
1496[2:15] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: I am unsure, until now....I had little reason to suspect such an attiude based on experience 
1497
1498[2:16] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Nor did I imply sabotage...i was infering attitude 
1499
1500[2:16] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "We're a crew.  We have to count on each other, so we have to make sure we're people the others 
1501can depend upon as well." 
1502
1503[2:16] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: -just realises the abject stupidity of her statement.. hopefully her surprise would at least convey 
1504that she never actually intended sabotage- 
1505
1506[2:16] [DOIC2] Sevuk@ClingingMars: The function is as a complete unit. 
1507
1508[2:16] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Priestess -> As for the trials, since you a guests and here with purpose, perhaps it wouldbe best to 
1509try one...another time... 
1510
1511[2:16] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Talk about making my point for me CAG 
1512
1513[2:17] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Are they like one of those vision quests where you wake up five days later in the desert without 
1514a shirt?" 
1515
1516[2:17] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods.* "Alright, then... I guess they would be grueling indeed, just seeing how the 
1517approach to the temple was." *He then looks to Eren.* "...Is that an actual thing?" 
1518
1519[2:17] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Next time we get to Earth, clear your schedule." 
1520
1521[2:17] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "I trust you, Captain. If you trust them, this extends. I just... I am concerned. That is all." 
1522
1523[2:18] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "I do not wish us to be used as Pawns. Whether we, or even they, realize it or not>" 
1524
1525[2:18] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos raises an eyebrow curiously, but just nods.* 
1526
1527[2:18] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Priestess. -> They are unique..but since they all involve overcoming unique personal fears, they are 
1528tramatic and can leave..lasting marks... 
1529
1530[2:18] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods= I as a former 'ground pounder' understand the caution behind the mentalty of 'they are all bad 
1531guys..until they are not' but i am unsure how much more the Avyeni have to prove themselves at 
1532
1533[2:18] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: this point 
1534
1535[2:18] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "... I do not have an answer for this. I... do not wish us to be harmed." 
1536
1537[2:19] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "Please understand this." 
1538
1539[2:19] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "I understand... perhaps some other day would be best, then." 
1540
1541[2:19] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Nor do I...and I do...just you seem to be walking a fine line...I am still unsure what their 'advanced 
1542biology' refers too 
1543
1544[2:19] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I'd be doing my future hosts a disservice if I didn't try something like -that.-" 
1545
1546[2:19] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: or how this might infer potential hostility? 
1547
1548[2:20] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "I am attempting to consider all possibilities." 
1549
1550[2:20] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Priestess -> Perhaps quiet contenplation and discussion or pray would suffice for your visit this time. 
1551
1552[2:20] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "As in physicality.  Biological capabilities." 
1553
1554[2:20] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Do elaborate then..for  I am somewhat at a loss 
1555
1556[2:20] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Perhaps.  Thank you, Priestess." 
1557
1558[2:20] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Go on...how doe this make them potentional hostiles? 
1559
1560[2:21] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Indeed... Thank you." *He then looks to the others.* "Want to pray, and go and pay our respects 
1561to the next Temple?" 
1562
1563[2:21] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "I'm not much for prayer, but I don't see the harm in some meditation." 
1564
1565[2:21] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "Just in case. They have shown no potential hostility. I just fear for your safety. And that of the 
1566others." 
1567
1568[2:22] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -stiffly- Elaborate....on what about their 'advanced biology' makes them a potentional threat please 
1569
1570[2:22] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Hm. Let us do that then. We have an expert with ourselves as is." *He smiles a bit to Sevuk.* 
1571
1572[2:23] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "I.. am concerned about their telepathic abilities." 
1573
1574[2:23] [DOIC2] Sevuk@ClingingMars: Meditation can be very effective in centering the mind. 
1575
1576[2:23] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: *nods at the the captain to be excused as she feels more ready to go ask questions* 
1577
1578[2:23] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: ....you are a talepath....as am I to a degree 
1579
1580[2:23] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "Couldn't have said it better myself, Sevuk.  Let's find a spot out of the way." 
1581
1582[2:24] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods, heading to something in a corner that looks like a large prayer/meditation mat.* 
1583
1584[2:24] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods to Carina - G ahead Ops..see f yu cant catch up to the others at the Courage Temple 
1585
1586[2:24] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "I... am unsure of my capabilities in fending off a telepathic attack by such an unknown. I am not as 
1587skilled as Sevuk. My... emotions make it difficult to focus." 
1588
1589[2:25] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren sat down carefully on her knees on said mat.* 
1590
1591[2:25] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: So...your defense to all of this...is that...you are baically 'freaking out' ? You are in the middle of a 
1592panic attack? 
1593
1594[2:25] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "I am not afraid." 
1595
1596[2:25] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: -totally is- 
1597
1598[2:25] [DOIC1] Carina Winther@awendra: "Gonna walk my own path I think" *she says before taking her leave, moving on and looking 
1599around, perhaps looking for someone who can explain the temples* 
1600
1601[2:25] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: -May also be having a mild attack- 
1602
1603[2:26] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -rubs the brdge of her nose- CAG....get it together will you? 
1604
1605[2:26] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: -as the group takes a momenet to medicate, thet have the clam sense of peace the courage bring to have 
1606the confidence to overcome what may come- 
1607
1608[2:26] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "I am trying." 
1609
1610[2:26] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *So did Ankos, placing his hands on his knees, and closing his eyes.* 
1611
1612[2:27] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: So what this boils down too..s you are ...'worried' because we are not the biggest fish in the sea at the 
1613moment? and thus...appear vunerable? 
1614
1615[2:27] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: -it feels a fit sureal..as if you tapping into some universal well of confidence- 
1616
1617[2:27] [DOIC2] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk sits down on his knees, clasping his hands together in his traditional stance.* 
1618
1619[2:28] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "I... yes. That I believe is the heart of the concern." 
1620
1621[2:29] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *A tranquil smile comes to Ankos' face, the emotions bouncing off of him telepathically towards 
1622Sevuk and Eren, like some kind of conduit.* 
1623
1624[2:29] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren couldn't help but grin as she sat there in quiet reflection.* 
1625
1626[2:29] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -looks down and shakes her head- CAG....we are not the most advanced culture out in space..as we have seen 
1627time and again 
1628
1629[2:31] [DOIC1] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Long sigh. She walks for the arena to see what how to sign up and smack and around a few Avynei." 
1630
1631[2:31] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "Our allies are far enough beyond us, that I could not save you. Or... err.. other members of the 
1632crew." 
1633
1634[2:31] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -looks after Lonah with quiet evny- 
1635
1636[2:31] [DOIC3] Carina Winther@awendra: Wanders along once more, trying to find signs to were she is or were she could go, to get the 
1637temples explained* 
1638
1639[2:31] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos feels loaded with the confidence he needs, ready to face the next temple, but he waits 
1640for his companions.* 
1641
1642[2:32] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -blinks- Save us....from who? -shakes her head- The Avynei?? 
1643
1644[2:32] [DOIC2] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk keeps his eyes closed, doing his best to continue to suppress emotion.* 
1645
1646[2:32] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren carefully rose from her seated position, brushing off her skirt.*  "Well... shall we?" 
1647
1648[2:33] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Let's... Next up should be either chaos, or hope... both will offer interesting trials..." 
1649
1650[2:33] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "Their enemy." 
1651
1652[2:33] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "I... suppose they have nothing to gain by destroying us." 
1653
1654[2:34] [DOIC2] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk stands slowly.* 
1655
1656[2:34] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "I... believe you are correct that I could trust them. I am afraid." 
1657
1658[2:34] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos nods gratefully and respectfully to the priestess, as he heads out, keeping an eye for 
1659the next temple.* 
1660
1661[2:34] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nods knowing that took a lot to admit- ..No I understand this 
1662
1663[2:34] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren gave the priestess a polite bow of her head before she headed out as well.* 
1664
1665[2:35] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Arena Keeper] -eyes Lonah- Are you sure you wish this....you are hardly equipted nor trained as we are 
1666
1667[2:36] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "I should return to Vulcan and join the monastaries. Seek Kohlinar. I would then not have this fear." 
1668
1669[2:36] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: Priestess -> May the fire of Her Courage and Compassion always remaing burning in your hearts. 
1670
1671[2:36] [DOIC4] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Looks at the Keeper.* "Big talk coming someone holding a door. Lets see what happens." 
1672
1673[2:37] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Arena Keeper] -nods impressed by her spirit-  Weapon of choice? 
1674
1675[2:37] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "And in yours as well." 
1676
1677[2:37] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Thank you. May the fire of Her courage and compassion lways remain burning in your heart." 
1678*Ankos nods respectfully, hoping he hasn't offended by repeating the wish.* 
1679
1680[2:38] [DOIC4] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Wonders if they consider a torpedo a perosnal weapon, probably not.* "I'll star with what I have and 
1681take what I need from my opponents." 
1682
1683[2:38] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -rubs the bridge of her nose- oooooor....you could just 'cowboy up' and find your resolve 
1684
1685[2:39] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Arena Keeper] -laughs and nods- I admire your spirit! -gestures to her to enter the arena- 
1686
1687[2:39] [DOIC2] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk nods.* 
1688
1689[2:39] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "Cowboy... up? Is that a human phrase? How do I tend cattle in an upward direction? They cannot fly." 
1690
1691[2:39] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos looks to the others and leads off towards the next temple.* 
1692
1693[2:39] [DOIC3] Carina Winther@awendra: *looks around after a while without finding anyone* "Well done Carina, you got yourself lost" 
1694
1695[2:39] [DOIC4] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Walks in, unbuttoning her top to hang it off to the side. 
1696
1697[2:39] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: -Her misunderstanding of the phrase seems to have distracted her from her fear- 
1698
1699[2:39] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren took a look around as they exited the temple.*  "I say we go for Chaos next," *she remarked, 
1700looking for clues as to which one they should head for.* 
1701
1702[2:40] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: -the party leave the Temple of Courage as it back outside, feeling confident.- 
1703
1704[2:40] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: "Chaos? That will be... unique." *He nods and looks around as well.* 
1705
1706[2:40] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -motions T'Ruri over- Come here T'Ruri 
1707
1708[2:40] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: -walks up, no longer showing any sign of fear. Mostly just inquisitiveness- 
1709
1710[2:41] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: - a large heavily armored Avynei stands to meet her across the arena field...a massive curved bladed sword 
1711in his hands and a shield- You meet me...unarmed? 
1712
1713[2:41] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: - a large heavily armored Avynei stands to meet her across the arena field...a massive curved bladed sword 
1714in his hands and a shield- You meet me...unarmed? 
1715
1716[2:42] [DOIC2] Xaelei@Arnimane: -at the mention of "Chaos" there eyes catch sight of a soft blue glow in the distance and they 
1717instinctively feel that would be the way- 
1718
1719[2:42] [DOIC2] Sevuk@ClingingMars: *Sevuk eyes the blue glow and starts that way.* 
1720
1721[2:42] [DOIC4] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *smirks.* "You're welcome to leave if your feeling deleicate." 
1722
1723[2:42] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos follows.* 
1724
1725[2:42] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -sighs and reaches out to embrace her officer addding- T'ruri...there is nothing wrong with being 
1726afraid...I am ....of course I am as well...and your caution is understandable...but you are too focuse 
1727
1728[2:42] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: "...That seems to be our cue."  *Eren headed along with them.* 
1729
1730[2:43] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: -there is some approving chuckles from the stands...as her opponent smiles and nods to her with some 
1731respect- 
1732
1733[2:43] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "I 
1734
1735[2:43] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Malv] I am Malv....I wish you luck under the eyes of the Mother Warrior 
1736
1737[2:43] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: -T'Ruri looks super uncomfortable due to the hug. Not afraid anymore at all. But very confused- 
1738
1739[2:44] [DOIC3] Carina Winther@awendra: "Maybe I should have just gone to the arena looking for a fight or something"  *she says still 
1740looking around trying to find someone to  ask questions* 
1741
1742[2:44] [DOIC4] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Sizes him up, looking for the weak points in the armor.* "I am Lonah, fight well." 
1743
1744[2:44] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: The hug...is for caring about your Keth 
1745
1746[2:44] [DOIC3] Xaelei@Arnimane: Makai shows up ->  You look lost. 
1747
1748[2:44] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Malv] -looks to the Arena keeper who shrugs and nods to him- BEGIN -the crowd roars- 
1749
1750[2:45] [DOIC4] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Lonah charges in, directing her shoulder to hit hm, or his shield. She's hoping for the shield." 
1751
1752[2:45] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: That is something I never doubt in your heat T'Ruri 
1753
1754[2:46] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "I... see." -looks back at Lonah- "I need to return to a cockpit. I am unconfortable here." 
1755
1756[2:46] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Malv] as she takes a few steps in his direction ...he digs his feet in and a crystal in center of his 
1757shield pulses and emits a energy bolt directly at her- 
1758
1759[2:46] [DOIC3] Carina Winther@awendra: *nods at Makai in respectful greeting* "I believe I am lost, I want to understand this place and 
1760your people, so I was looking for someone to ask about these four temples" 
1761
1762[2:46] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [roll lonah] 
1763
1764[2:47] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: -the blast his her center mass and launches her off of her feet to crash againt the wallof the arean where 
1765she entered- 
1766
1767[2:48] [DOIC4] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *They put energy beams in everything it seems. It's a surprise someone dosen't blow their own head off 
1768drinking coffee. She hits the way with a heavy whack of reinforced bone.* 
1769
1770[2:48] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Malv] -circles and readjusts his position eyeing her now asessing her response- 
1771

1773
1774[2:49] [DOIC2] Sereya Eren@liorexus: *Eren tried to get a better look at the blue glow as they drew nearer.* 
1775
1776[2:49] [DOIC4] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Gets back up, frowning.  She's a little more cautious now seeing as he's going to be shooting things 
1777at her. She advances slower this time, waiting for the chance to close the gap before he can fire 
1778
1779[2:49] [DOIC4] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: againe.* 
1780
1781[2:50] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "they have so much... but they are illogical." 
1782
1783[2:50] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Malv] -circles with her ...eyeing her up now with a bit more respect that she got up so quickly- 
1784
1785[2:51] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: -the crowd cheers both on keen to see how she will continue her attack- 
1786
1787[2:51] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Which makes it harder to understand them for you? 
1788
1789[2:51] [DOIC4] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Edges closer and darts at him again, then juking to the side to avoid being fired at again.* 
1790
1791[2:52] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Malv] -fires another burst at her, guagingher reflexes- 
1792
1793[2:52] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "I am concerned about thier Faith. Faith can cause great harm." 
1794
1795[2:52] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [roll pls] 
1796
1797[2:52] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: -Lonah is able to dodge his shot s he widely overcompensated- 
1798
1799[2:53] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Blind faith you mean? 
1800
1801[2:53] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "All faith can be blinded." 
1802
1803[2:53] [DOIC4] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Closes in and tries to grab interlace her arm between his should and torso and kick his leg out to 
1804throw him to the ground.* 
1805
1806[2:53] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Indeed...which is why some of them have been corrupted by the Dark 
1807
1808[2:53] [DOIC2] Ankos@bulgariandragon1: *Ankos follows the others to the temple.* 
1809
1810[2:54] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Malv] -grunts some at his own bad aim and braces as he tries to counter with his own specail manuever- 
1811
1812[2:54] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [roll pls lonah] 
1813
1814[2:56] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "We cannot allow ourselves to join in that blind faith." 
1815
1816[2:56] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: -the two warriors find themselves grappling in feats of strength now, Lonah through raw leverage and 
1817cunning, and Malv with his superier abilties, his cyrstal glowing red on his armor and shield- 
1818
1819[2:56] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [acion lonah?] 
1820
1821[2:57] [DOIC4] Lonah@Gothicfoxx: *Failing to throw him she tries to wrap around him, grabbing hat his neck to check out him out.* 
1822
1823[2:57] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: -nodnods her tone maternal now- Of course we will not....we know the stakes involved here T'Ruri...and the 
1824results of such a corruption..as do the Avynei 
1825
1826[2:58] [DOIC1] T'Ruri@ThanatosRa: "We are imperfect beings. The possibility of faltering is always there." 
1827
1828[2:58] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [Malv] moves to gain the edge he need to throw her off of him- 
1829
1830[2:58] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: [lonah roll pls] 
1831
1832[2:59] [DOIC4] Talia@Isis.: -the mighty grappling continues as the crowd roars its approval...both opponents locked in a battle of 
1833wills...though Malv is holding back some assessing...the battle is a magnificent one- 
1834
1835[3:00] [DOIC1] Talia@Isis.: Of course it is...but we have the same edge these Avynei have..if not more of one to prevent this
