Molag Mar
The army had been gone from Molag Mar for over a month and things were looking bad in Molag Mar. A group of temple goers with a different view then Florodine's had taken up residence in the city, and had caused many problems. More and more people of this following had come into the city, and Florodine's priests closed the gates completely. However this only caused more problems as trade was now cut off. The new cult suddenly seized the royal palace along with the stronghold of Molag Mar.
The ordinators in the top of the fortress all had to retreat and climb down the great path ways into the city. The cult destroyed the bridge, and the remaining ordinators gathered and attacked the stronghold fiercely, however it was held and they retreated back into the city. There were some 10,000 ordinators left in the city, however the cult follwing numbered 15,000. The army would have to return with its 60,000 in order to take such a stronghold as the one of Molag Mar.
To make matters worse, a large group of bandits had been growing in the mountains of Molag Amur. They sent a man in telling the priests that if they were let into the city, they would fight the cult.
The priests believed them, and a huge force of bandits poured into the city. They slayed many innocents, and the priests closed the gates to the bazaar and manor section. Leaving the residencial section under bandit control. They killed and robbed untill the placed was pour. The people in this section of the city were now under a constant state of terror, because when the bandits weren't fighting the cult, or the ordinators they would rob.
A messenger was sent by the ordinators to New Vivec and he arrived late at night.
"Excuse me can you let me into the city please it's an emergency.
OOC: Anyone can play the gate keeper.
Dimitre, New Vivec Manor
".....SERENE!!!!" Dimitre shouted, jumping out of bed and running towards where everyone was. Dimitre scanned the room for a second or two then saw Serene, Akar, Dahleena and two strangers he didn't know standing there, like they were in the middle of peddy squabbles.
"Oh Serene your alright!" Dimitre exlaimed, letting out a breath of fresh air then hurried over to her and embrassed her like he had never before, moving his upper-body left to right and right to left.
Dimitre still didn't have a smile on his face, but his heart was overjoyed to see that they didn't harm her. Dimitre would never forgive himself if he let anything happen to Akar's family.
If I thought it would make a difference I would kill myself today... Dimitre thought to himself while hugging Serene.
Dimitre looked around the room and saw angered faces. Maybe one of the strangers was her husband or lover, and he didn't want to cause trouble with anyone so he slowly let Serene go and looked around the room and said,
"Hi... My name is Dimitre!" Putting on fake smile was irratating, especially in an uncomfortable moment like this.
It's wierd...whenever i regain conciousness from a near-death experience i always find myself in uncomfortable moments..... Dimitre thought to himself again.
Dimitre, New Vivec Manor
Dimitre looked at Akar, wondering why his name was Saryn but told me it was Akar. This didn't really matter to him seens how he was introduced to him as Akar and thats how he will continue to know him.
"Akar... If you leave your taking me with you but Dahleena has to stay here. Judging on what I've picked up so far Dahleena doesn't have alot of combat experiance and she'd get herself killed. You know this and I know this. She comes, she is as good as dead."
Dimitre paused for a second, then picked up his sword and straped it to his hips and walked over to Akar, stairing at him, waiting for a answer.
Not breaking eye contact with Akar he said,
"If we go, I need you and Dahleena to read my journal and figure out a plan of attack for me. I was never good with stratigising."
Dimitre placed his hand on the hilt of the sword to rest it, and then nodded at Akar.
Dahleena, NV
"Now will you all stop this nonsense!! What is going on??? Whoīs gonna get killed?...And who is Saryn? Sel? Will someone please tell me what all this is about?!!
Dahleena was terrified.....to much ranting about danger and killing and stuff......She covered her face in her hands and tears started running.....
Serene,NV
"Now this is just what we need....Saryn pouting and ready to leave, Dahleena hysterical, Sel just hiding as usual, and that poor Dimitre always volunteering to get hurt or killed.....what is wrong with those young fools? Oh I wish Jonacin was here!"
Serene stood upright, eyes shut, .......trying to "see" through all this mess.....
Aryon, New Vivec Manor
Aryon walked up to the door of Serene's house and prepared for what he was going to ask. Timedly he knocked on the door.
Dimitre, New Vivec Manor
Dimitre stopped to consider his options and decided what was best.
"Akar, this is for your own good..."
Dimitre pulled out a dagger he had in the back of his belt that was enchanted with a paralysis spell and forced it into Akar's side where it would cause the least damage. Akar would live, but not able to move for several hours. Serene was a master healer though, so his time of recovery varied.
Dimitre looked up from Akars' motionless body to see hate on the faces of everyone in the room. Dimitre thought to himself.....
I had no other choice..... I'm sorry....
Dimitre turned and fled out the building before anyone could get any words in. he would rather have everyone hate him then to see his friends get hurt. There was a presance in town that terrefied Serene, and he planned on finding out just what it was. This also gave him a chance to test out his new "Berzerk" spell he had created a few weeks ago....
OOC: Sorry guys didn't read the plan until after i edited it though so i don't alter anything that was planned.
OOC: Bagh! had to retype this all again so i wouldn't screw the story once more! *cries*
Sel, New vivec
Since Akar was now incapable of doing so, Sel took it upon himself to run after the dunmer girl that had just run off. Dimitre could fend for himself.
He didn't like Akar, but that didn't mean that he hated the man's girlfriend.
He pushed past the man that was knocking on the door, and ran after Dahleena.
"Wait!" he yelled.
Dahleena, NV
She stopped.....as she noticed someone yelling..probably at her....Ahh it was....that guy Sel...who apparently not was on talking terms with Akar.....odd.....why was that?
"Yes? whatīs the matter?"
Sel, New Vivec
"What's the matter? You just ran the hell off, when there's apparently something dangerous out here."
"So are you just going to stand there or are you going to go back to Serene's?"
Dahleena, NV
"Alright....Iīm coming.....but what have you got against Akar?...Iīm just so confused...I donīt want life to be so complicated..I thought Akar and I just were going to visit his mom..then all this ...this..mess!!"
She followed Sel back..with slow steps
Sel, New Vivec
Sel wanted to say that Akar was an assassin trying to kill his mother, which is what he thought after seeing him protecting that assassin. He didn't though; that wouldn't help her to know that, especially since she didn't know that he had been stabbed by that Dimitre fellow.
"Me and Akar have a...disagreement." was all he said.
Aryon, Serene's manor
"umm hello? Whats going on here?" asked aryon as he yelled into the manor.
"If this is a bad time i suppose i could talk with Serene later, though i did want to talk to her now. Not that it was of utmost importance or anything" he said
Miles, New Vivec, The Manor
Miles thoughts had been wandering adrift as he watched the scene unfold in front of him.
She knew Niran, Miles thought of Serene, and I'll get more information out of her later . . .
It appeared that Dimitre had fallen for Serene, rather innapropriate considering the circumstances, she appeared to already be wed.
He frowned when Dimitre stabbed Akar, and he took a few leaping steps over to the fallen man, bending down to examine his wound.
Then he stood up, and stated:
"I don't suppose this is an appropriate reaction, but hell, as far as I can tell that was uncalled for. If that son of a cliff racer comes back I'll- well I'll," Miles didn't continue.
"Or perhaps no form of execution at all . . " he mumbled several moments later while he stood staring straight forward at nothing at all, accidentally thinking out loud about some random topic that had drifted into his mind.
"Serene, I think Akar needs a little help here. That crazy guy just stabbed him," Miles chuckled though the situation was dire,
The guy who was attempting to have an affair with you.
(OOC: Long time no post, I shouldn't wait so long in between my posts, I'll end up missing everything.)
Sel, New Vivec
When Serene let the Telvanni councillor inside, Sel pulled Serene off to the side.
"You said there was a danger outside...are you sure he isn't that danger?" he whispered, gesturing towards Aryon across the room.
Sel, New Vivec
Sel nodded slightly to show that he understood, and took a seat, his hand ready to go to a dagger or a sword in a moment's notice.
Serene,NV
She waited for Aryon to say something, smiling..
Dahleena, NV
Dahleena sat by Akarīs side, gently stroking his hair......she was terrified, what was going on? She could not understand a thing....
Therana, NV
Therana was waiting not far from Sereneīs manor.....impatiently
"What is keeping the old bugger?...has he lost his touch? Iīm tired of waiting!"
Aryon, New Vivec
"Ahh mistress Serene, i was hoping this was your house." he said clearing his throat
"I wanted to know if i could treat you to a more Telvanni meal there is always differences in meals between the houses, and would like to discuss past events over the year. Would you be interested in coming to the telvanni council hall?"
ooc:lets say that Otik walked out back...
Otik->Serene's Manor
Otik walked around the house and finnaly came to the road.
Hope they don't hate me, it was kindof acward
Otik headed down the street tward his manor.
Sel, New Vivec
I'll do what I can for Leni. Sel replied with his thoughts, hoping she wouldn't catch that he excluded Akar. Dahleena could take care of him.
Would you be opposed to me taking her back to Cyrodiil with me, away from this war? he asked, hoping that Serene was still paying attention to his thoughts...
OOC: this way, Sel leaves with Leni, and then only Dahleena is in the way of Aryon and Therana capturing Akar.
Serene, NV
"Take her with you Sel....then sheīs safe...at least......sheīs just a baby.....then again Saryn,.....but heīs a grown man, he has to manage on his own.....it canīt be him theyīre after..I mean Aryon probably doesnīt even know Saryn is my son...."
Serene prepared her bag and made herself ready to follow Master Aryon....
OOC: So youīre gonna dump Sel back in Cyrodiil for the moment huh?....ok....itīs good he takes Leni with him then!
So now nothingīs between Akar and Therana!
Serene,NV
Serene nodded at Sel.....smiled faintly and approached Master Aryon
"So Master.....shall we go then?"
She knew Leni was in safe hands.....Sel would do anything for her.......
The uneasy feeling did not leave her though...
Aryon, New Vivec
"Well then let's get lunch first then i can bring you to the hall. Let's go then. It was nice seeing you all." he said walking outside, his disposition was exactly the same he was calm and showed no extra emotion.
The Silhoette, Dagon Fel
The Silhouette caught the dart and threw it at delave who was charging at him. The fleet now landed and thousands of troops poured into town, surrounding the inn. Men were still landing and shouting war crys.
Dalave->Dagon Fel
Dalave saw the Dart but couldn't move in time and it peiced her left brest. She grimiced and glared at the Silhouette but folowed through with an uppercut with her sword.
The Silhouette, Dagon Fel
"I like your fighting and your gang," the Silhouette said dodging the attack. "Would you be interested in i dont know, joining me, or dying?" he hissed. "your choice" he said as his hands glowed purple
The Silhouette, Dagon Fel
"Well then" he hissed. He released a small amount of magic at Dalave, the forces had all landed now and were preparing a camp outside.
Dalave->Dagon Fel
Dalave winced as the Silhouette released some magic. "What was that? A test?" Dalave glared at the Silhouette and turned to walk off. "Okay everyone get your stuff and clear out the camp, meet in the Reaver camp. And don't attack and reavers, unless they attack first." Dalave smiled. Dalave stalked off to her room and glanced back at the silhouette and raised her eyebrow as if asking "you coming" and then continued to the cave.
Dimitre, New Vivec
Dimitre felt terrable about what he had done and realized how he could have just really risked his families life by his actions against Akar. Dimitre made a decision and went with it...
Dimitre arrived back at the manor several minutes later to see that man stand there with Leni and Serene with a bag of stuff. He got a bad feeling from the Telvanni, even though he had kind eyes, he still didn't trust him.
Dimitre didn't say a word as he walked around in the manor. Dimitre couldn't tell if they were confused or hated him or wanted him dead or what, but Dimitre didn't care, he just new what he came to the manor to do, and he was going to leave them again.
Akar, I know you can't hear me but i'm sorry for what I did, and I want you to drink this potion I made... It removes the effects of the paralysis, and will have you back to shape in a matter of moments.... I feel though, that I must leave you guys once and for all.. I don't need the mind reading capabilities your mom has but I know the look of not being welcomed on peoples faces, and I seem to be getting alot of that lately.
Dimitre then walked over to Akar and pulled out a bottle with red liquid and poured it on the open wound. If Serene had fixed it, that would just re-enforce what she'd done. Dimitre then pulled out a multi-coloured liquid from his pouch he keeps potions in, lifts Akars head, and pours it in his mouth.
Be lucky Akar... there is only one of those potions in the world, and you just drank it. It was givin to me by my father... It cures paralysis and prevents you from ever catching paralysis again, so that's one thing you don't have to worry about....
Dimitre watched as little parts of Akars' body started to move. He smiled, then remembered that he was an unwelcomed guest, so he turned and went for the front door.
I'm sorry Serene, Akar.... If you need me or ever want to settle the score, you'll know where to find me....
Sel, New Vivec
Sel left the room after Dimitre left, and proceeded to pack his things. He didn't have much, only a light coat, a canteen and an extra change of clothes. With that done, he needed to find Leni, say good-bye to Serene, and be on their way.
Akar, New vivec
Akar woke up, spitting up some strange-tasting red liquid. everything around him was fuzzy, but he was aware enough to find a bed and fall down onto it.
OOC: I was wondering when he would have to answer questions about Niran...
Sel, New vivec
"Fine with me." Sel replied. "Get whatever things you need; I'm leaving within the hour."
With that, he went to Leni's room, and shoved a few of her clothes, a blanket, and a small stuffed bear into his pack, and picked up the sleeping girl out of bed.
The Silhouette, Dagon Fel
The Silhouette gathered all his forces and surrounded the city completely, a wall three deep of troops covered every inch out of town. The Silhouette followed Delave into the tent
"Now what do you want?"
Dalave->Dagon Fel
Dalave went to a table and poured some drinks, "So what exactially are we going to do?" She set the cups on the table and moved around packing all of her trinkets she got over the years and all of her clothes. "and were are we going to go?"
The Silhouette, Dagon Fel
"Then you have agreed to submit to me? Good this is a smart choice. We are here because this is the only town i retained. If we lose this we loose all tax money, and thus I also lose my troops. All these reavers have families, and those families are on their way here, which will make this town enormous. This town is very important to me. However i seek to join Redoran. Of all you Tamerilic (sp?) races in morrowind, the ones in redoran seem to be the most worthy of my fighting skills, since they themselves are warriors." the Silhouette hissed.
"So we will head south, all the goblins will stay here and hold the town, all the orcs and nords will buy all the redoran army in every town of redoran, and the rest will create new redoran armor. I hope you and your brood will join us"
Dalave->Dagon Fel
Dalave stopped and turned around. "Hmm so becuase we are pretty much joining, what exactially am I and my group going to do?" She took a drink from the table and turned back around and continued packing.
The Silhouette, Dagon Fel
The Silhouette thought for a minute and then he looked at her dark form, she was beautiful and had a sleek quick body, she was an assassin he could tell. "You will be my assassin group" he said plainly.
Dalave->Dagon Fel
Dalave raised an eyebrow and smiled. "Well that sounds fun." She placed her bag on the table. "Well thats it we can head out now."
Serene, NV
She embraced Leni and Sel as they came down from the nursery....Leni was almost asleep her head resting comfortably on Selīs shoulder.....she smiled ....
"Ok sweetheart" Serene said "Youīre going with Uncle Sel now.....to visit Aunt Celia..and little Triel....that will be nice for you....and mommy promise to come after....later when all things have calmed down here...OK? S be a good girl now and do exactly as Uncle Sel says huh....."
"Sel....I wish you a good and safe journey ok...and give Celia a hug from me....oh wait...I have something for you..."
She went to a cupboard and took out a couple of small leather pouches.....and a couple of blue small vials
"Here....these are for Celia....she could have use for them" Serene pointed at the pouches
"And these....very strong healing-potions, I made them myself, could come in handy during your trip..but remember, only take a third of the content each time! Overdosing them will affect you ......weird!"
"So tag along now while itīs still daylight"
Serene gave Sel an extra hug .....
Dahleena, NV
"Dimitre....what are you up to? Donīt act that strange....come here and sit down, see Akar is coming to his senses now..heīll be ok"
Otik and Delfran(Finnaly)->Manor
Otik walked in his manor to find only a few servants left. "Hmm, no surprise here. Thanks for staying." Otik walked into a seperate room and found someone sitting by the fire. Otik approched the person and it stood up.
"Hmm was starting to wonder if you were going to show up." Delfran said with a slight frown.
"Yeah, I was called by Isarrin and then I had to walk back. Except I got sidetracked by Serene's house." Stauros explaned
"Isaarin? What did he want?"
"He wants us to go to Balmora but after he rebuilds Suran into a fort and then we will go there and over see the place." Stauros said.
Delfran nodded, "AH okay whatever."
Stauros headed to the front door but tossed a bag of gold at one of the servants, "here, you guys have earned it." The servants graciously accepted the gold but Stauros and Delfran left before anything really happened.
Sel, New Vivec
Sel put the things Serene gave him in his pack and headed for the door.
"Coming, Miles?" he called back. He looked down to see a glass helm on the floor, so he picked it up and put it on a small table nearby. Leni started pointing at it, so Sel picked it back up. "Is this yours?" he asked. when she nodded, He put that in his pack along with everything else; it was getting somewhat heavy.
"We'll keep it there so no mean people can steal it." he said as they continued waiting for Miles.
Dimitre, New Vivec
"I don't know what i'm doing," Dimitre said, spinning around to talk to Dahleena, then continued.
"I could have killed Akar back there! I don't know how good his immune system is! He could have been paralysed forever thanks to me!" Dimitre waited to hear what she had to say, if she had anything to say at all.
"I am going to go back to the Brotherhood hideout, and finish what we started years ago, then I will come back. If I make it that is...." Dimitre paused and staired into Dahleenas eyes then said once more,
"Tell Serene and Akar that judgement must be past upon me..... and that I'll miss them........" He then looked at the ground, then looked back at Dahleena and gave her a hug, and wispered into her ear.
"Farewell"
And just like that, he left and started heading towards the New Vivec Canalworks where the Dark Brotherhood relocated to.
Miles, New Vivec
Miles hurriedly finished preparing, gathering what little he had as he joined Sel and Leni.
"Okay, ready."
Sel, New vivec
"Alright then." he said, walking out the door. "We may be spending quite a bit of time finding a captain that's going to try to run through the blockade. And any captain that will is probably a smuggler. Keep your sword close." he advised as they stood by the docks.
"Start asking around, I guess." he said with a shrug.
Miles, New Vivec Docks
Miles wandered off.
After a brief conversation with several people, Miles returned.
"They think I'm crazy, which is probably not a good sign. . . It is going to take a hefty sum to get one of these guys to run the blockade."
Sel, New Vivec
"Tell me about it. I found someone who will do it, but it's gonna cost us." Sel replied. "Look, I'm going to sell this helmet, and see what I can get for it, and we'll see what other coin we can get together." he said, digging in his pack for Leni's helmet.
(OOC: Time for a little fun.
)
Miles, New Vivec
Miles nodded, "I'll talk around a little more, see if it yields any results."
Miles did look around, but not for a shipmaster this time, he was looking for some way to get quick money.
And he found it, on a ships deck he had taken the time to board after spotting a large group standing in a circle.
It wasn't long before he came upon a rowdy group placing bets on brawls, no weapons, it was hand to hand. The winner got a share of the takings it seemed, and the prospect of earning some money in such a short amount of time seemed a good idea.
"Um . . how do you go about participating in this." Miles asked anxiously.
A man turned around, and burst into laughter. Miles, a young lad, was scrwany in comparison.
"You don't."
Then he turned back around.
Miles placed a hand on his shoulder and attempted to turn the orc around, but the man shrugged it off.
"Get lost kid."
It took a few seconds to register in Mile's mind.
"Pardon?"
The man turned around and eyed Miles.
"You'd be crushed in a second."
"I don't care, now are you going to let me participate or not?"
"Fine, but if you get the ----- kicked out of you don't go bawling your eyes out, all right."
Miles nodded, and the orc stepped out of his way, allowing Miles to enter the cirlce.
Sel, New Vivec
Sel returned with somewhere around three-thousand gold in his pocket from the glass helm that Otik so graciously gave Leni. He almost felt bad selling it, but this was important.
He spotted Miles entering some sort of fighting ring on his way back to the docks, and gave him a questioning stare.
He held Leni's hand and stood a ways back, hoping that no bad situation would come from this. If Miles really was Niran's brother, though, the situation would turn ugly somehow.
Miles, New Vivec Dock
The man facing Miles was a well built Imperial, and he sneered at the boy.
"Fight!"
Miles watched as the huge man lumbered forward to strike him, but as the man neared, Miles dodged around him and dealt a blow with his fist to the man's head. Disoriented, the man turned around, and was puzzled by the fact that Miles was no longer standing where he had been. In fact, Miles was already several feet back, out of reach.
Before the man could regain stability, Miles was at him again, dealing blows as fast as he could, especially to the head. The group surrounding them was just as puzzled as the man. It was, eventually, Mile's speed, not strength, that won him the fight.
The orc grudgingly seperated a small pile of gold and pushed it towards Miles.
"Thats it?"
The orc looked up, "Yeah, thats it."
The pile looked as if it contained only around 100 gold pieces, and Miles nearly flew into a fit of rage.
"I expect-"
The orc raised a hand, "No, you've been given what you deserve now beat it."
Miles, not wanting to fight a whole group of such men, took the money and walked towards Sel and Leni whom he had spotted moments earlier.
"This is all I could get," he said handing Sel the pouch of gold, "I don't suppose it'll do much."
Sel, New Vivec
Sel smiled as he saw the fight, Miles used tactics similar to his own. Except Sel preferred a sword.
When Miles appraoched and gave him a bag of coins, he frowned. "This is it?" he asked. "What is it, thirty gold?"
Miles, New Vivec Docks
"I don't know," Miles muttered, turning to look at the group of men, which had dispersed , but the Orc was standing not twenty feet off repairing a ship.
"The guy didn't give me much, and I didn't want to fight a whole group, but he's alone now. I might go frisk him down a bit."
Turning around, Miles marched back over to the orc.
(OOC: now its gonna get ugly.
)
Sel, New vivec
Sel shook his head, almost in humor. He couldn't be associated with this though, not with Leni....
"Leni?" he said, kneeling down. "Will you be a good girl and go hide in that barrel right there?"
when she nodded, he lifted her into the barrel. "Now don't come out until I come and get you, okay? I won't be long."
With that, Sel followed Miles from a distance, since the imperial had a head-start.
Miles, New Vivec
Miles approached the orc.
"About that fight, I don't think you gave me the deserved sum."
The orc stood up and snickered, "You know what, you pesk, I'll give you about a minute to dissapear before I crush you, all right."
"After a minute passes," Miles stated haughtily, "I will still be standing right here and I will still be insisting that you dish out more of the gold."
Sel, New vivec
Sel stood beside Miles in front of the orc. "Why don't you give the boy his fair share?" he asked, staring slightly up at the orc.
Miles, New Vivec
Miles watched as the orc backed up, then threw himself towards the boy and Sel.
"arrghhh!"
Miles hand flew to his sword hilt as the orc charged.
Sel, New Vivec
Sel backed up out of the orc's reach and drew his sword as he began to slowly circle the orc, looking for an opening.
Buff Orc Guy (OOC:
), New Vivec
The orc changed position and charged at the newcomer (Sel) first. He'd seen Miles fight, and he knew his strengths, but he did not know Sel's.
Sel, New Vivec
Sel stepped to the side and scored a minor hit on the orc's forearm.
OOC: does he have a weapon?
Aryon, New Vivec
"Well i was thinking we'd go get a nice lunch before i talk with you" Aryon said kindly
"We could either go to a cheap bar and have a drink, or we could go to an expensive restaurant, either is fine for me," Aryon said in a calm voice.
Orc, New Vivec
(OOC: Nope, no weapon)
The orc's sluggish movement hurt his chances at winning . . .
He spun as fast as he could manage and made a swipe at Sel once again, this time bending down so he could bring his fist up and hit him in the chin.
Aryon, New Vivec
"Yes i would love to go to the New Vivec Inn, let's depart right now, its about dinner time, so i am starving especially from my journey here." the wizard said completely truthfully. "I suspect it will only take an hour, and then we can discuss somethings concerning our houses."
Leni, in the barrel
She just had to see what caused all the commotion..and why did Uncle Sel not come back? se was sick and tired to wait....and ...she needed to go to the toilet!
She peered cautiously over the edge of the barrel...and just saw Sel in a fight with one of those greenish men .......those big strong ones, ......
But...but the green man was hurting Uncle Sel!!! Now that was quite outrageous.....she just had to help out here!
Leni struggled to get out of her hidingplace.......yelling in agony and frustration..it was not that easy!!
Sel, New Vivec
"Thank you." Sel said with a mock smile as he caught the pouch and tossed it to Miles.
"Come on Miles, let's go." he said as he walked back towards Leni and her hiding place.
Aryon, New Vivec
"Well no, however i do not think politics ever got as friendly as us. It is all conspiracy, backstabbing and wars." he said solemnly "Ah here we are, New Vivec Inn"
Leni, NV
When Leni noticed her beloved uncle Sel was ok and even heading towards her she was all smile again.
"Uncle Sel! Hurry, take me out of here....Iīm hungry......I want something to eat!"
Leni stretched her arms towards Sel......
Serene, NV
Serene smiled at Aryon, he was a true diplomat.....but he still was a Telvanni.....
When they entered the New Vivec Inn, the place was quite crowded.....that was good, a lot of witnesses that would notice that sheīd been in here
"So Master,......now please tell me your real reason for taking me out for lunch!"
Therana, NV
She knocked at the door to Sereneīs manor......arranging her features to look at her best, she did not want to scare the young man..or his cocky girlfriend.....not yet!
A tall redhaired girl opened.....
" Ahh good day to you, you must be lady Dahleena I suppose? Iīm an old friend and colleague of Mistress Serene...and it so happened that we met just outside the Inn...ohh and she told me her son wasnīt feeling that well so I offered to bring him some nice invigourating potions....may I come in?
Dahleena, NV
Dahleena answered the knock at the door, finding an elderly Dunmer woman outside. The woman was dressed in very fancy cloths....obviously she was a mage..which she also said....and Akar certainly needed some pick-me-up so why not let her in? Besides if she was a friend of Akarīs mom...
"Good day to you, please come in"
Dahleena stepped aside and let Therana enter the manor
"Akar! we have a visitor,!"
She brought Therana to Akar and presented her as a friend of his mother....
Miles, New Vivec
Miles caught the bag of coins and cast the orc a suspicious look before following after Sel.
"Where did Leni go?"
(OOC:
)
Sel, New Vivec
Sel pulled Leni out. "Sorry to leave you there so long." he apologized.
"You're hungry, huh?" he said as he pulled a piece of bread out of his pack. "Here you go." he said tearing off a small piece.
"She's right here." he answered Miles. "Listen, this captain isn't going to stay in the harbor long, so we have to get there fast."
Therana, NV
She looked at the young man in front of her.....Akar, the son of Serene, the Witch.....haha, he does look innocent...ahh those eyes....heīs a good looking man, Amili will be sooo pleased when she brings that piece of goodies to her!
Therana smiled nicely at Akar...
"So you are Akar right? Now I bring you some very nice potion here, it will really do you wonders.....look here, have a try!"
She showed Akar a brilliant purple vial..it was glistening in the light from the window behind....
"There now....take it!!"
Leni, with Sel
She was joyfully sitting on Selīs shoulders eating her bread, humming a short tune.....the very picture of a calm and happy little girl..
Sel, New Vivec
"Three thousand four hundred." Sel negotiated. He suspected that he wasn't being taken seriously because of the little girl on his shoulders dropping bread crumbs on his head, and that made the price go closer to what the captain wanted him to pay.
"Three thousand five hundred." the captain retorted.
"Alright, but I want a cabin with that."
"Deal." the captain said, and he and Sel shook hands.
Akar, New Vivec
Akar's senses were still dulled by the first potion, and was too dazed to suspect any sort of treachery. With a groan he took the vial and downed it in one gulp.
Aryon, New Vivec
"Yes you are right our houses are not on very good terms, however that cannot stop our friendship. Besides Telvanni has not done anything to Redoran to cause a war. Or at lease i hope not. " he said clearing his throat. "However we have our orders, and we do them. Oh speaking of orders" he said as the waitress put down their food
Fifteen minutes later
"Well i for one think that was delicious don't you?"
Kaushad, Zergonipal
"Sedrane, this isn't about you or me. This is about our tribes." he said sympathetically, putting a hand on his osn's shoulder. "I won't force you to apologize to Darum, but I will say that you need to keep your people first in your mind."
Sel, New Vivec Docks
Sel, Leni, and Miles followed the captain to the cabin where they would be staying, and when the captain left them to themselves, Sel put Leni down on the floor with her stuffed bear, and threw their other supplies on the single bed in the room.
"So, Miles." he said, sitting down in one of two wooden chairs around a small table. "When was the last time you saw your brother?" Sel hated to bring Niran up, but the issue needed to be taken care of before they tried running a blockade together.
Akar, New Vivec
"What's....happening?" he tried to get out, but only a slight mumble could be heard. He could feel the control he had over his mind slipping....
Sedrane, Zergonipal
Sedrane looked up in Kaushadīs face, he was all calm now. _The older man was right, as always....He would be wise listening to his words.
"I will go and apologize, I will prove to you that I am mature and a worthy ashkan of the Ahemmusa"
He bowed his head in courtesy of the older man and went away.
I must repress my personl pride and do this....I have to look at it as an ordeal that I have to go through.....then I will perform the proper rituals with my warriors, I have to arrange the sacrifices to our ancestors.....have to go see my mother as well....she must do all the preparations.....Oh I wish Serene was here, it would have been much easier!
Sedrane Mirpal went to see Darum......His intentions were to apologize, he just hoped the man would be able to communicate and not too drunk..or worse, unconscious!"
Therana, NV
Therana watched with pleasure how the drug affected Akar....in just a few moments he would be ready to pick up....then she noticed the girl, Dahleena, she was sensing something and was now rising to her feet looking very threatening....
Therana took immediate action, she cast a paralyzation-spell at Dahleena, which completely froe the young girl in an awkward pose!
"Come now Akar" Therana spoke with a hypnotical voice to the young half-dunmer.
"We have to leave now, there is someone who wants to meet you dear, a ravishing lady needs you Akar.....so come with me"
Therana led Akar by the hand out of Sereneīs manor and away to the strider-port....They were on their way to Sadrith Mora.......to meet with Amili
Therana was very satisfied with herself......she chuckled as they landed, Akar was a puppet-on-a-string now, completely in her custody!
Serene, New Vivec Inn
Suddenly Serene got an immense feeling of something bad happening. She gasped for breath, looking at Aryon with terror in her eyes
"What is happening? I sense that someone is in danger! Leni is with Sel, he wouldnīt let anything happen to her, Jonacin is busy, he can take care of himself.....but then....AHHHHH..itīs AKAR! I must get back..IMMEDIATELY"
Serene did not take any notice of Aryon anymore she just jumped to her feet and ran back to her mansion...just to find the front door open and Dahleena paralyzed in the hallway with a look of utmost terror in her face!
And.......no Akar!!!!!!
Sereneīs scream made three ordinators come running......
OOC: since Sadrith Mora is on an island, I'm going to make that a dock instead of a strider port.
Akar, Ship
Akar didn't know who he was, but he knew that there was someone out there for him to please...
He grabbed the woman he was travelling with. "Are we going to her? Please tell me we are..." he said pitifully.
Kaushad, Zergonipal
Kaushad watched his son go with regret; words couldn't express how bad he felt making his son do such a thing, but he was doing this as an ashkhan, not a father.
OOC: Oh yes..my bad, good job Danny, theyīre naturally on a ship!
Therana, ship heading for SM
She chuckled, the potion did itīs job very well.......the poor boy was totally confused, he had forgotten about that red-haired girl back at Sereneīs place, he was focused on ..someone else....He did not even know who he was.....that was really amusing.
Now the wretched witch back in New Vivec would have her sorrow! Oh it pleased her a lot to be able to really hurt Serene.....serves her right!
"Yes my boy" Theranaīs voice was soft and warm, "We are going to meet a very special person, who is eagerly waiting for you"
Therana offered Akar another small vial.......just in case, it was cruisal to keep him focused and not allow a single thought of......his other life.
Therana leaned back and truthfully enjoyed the trip.....
Sedrane, Zergonipal
Sedrane hesitated, he wanted to see his mother first, but it was better to get the business with Darum done as soon as possible. He went to the Erabenimsun-Ashkanīs yurt and entered.
"Darum! Iīve come to ask for your forgiveness, for attacking you!....I swear I did not touch your wife, but nevertheless I shouldnīt have lost my temper.....So will you forgive me and take part in the preparations for war together with us all?"
Serene, NV
The manor hall was a complete chaos, Ordinators running around, securing evidence as they said, Serene released Dahleena from her paralysis and the story the girl told her made her more angry than she evar was before. Not even at the worst moments of the ordeal with Arcyakt, she was this angry, combined with a sadness that almost made her faint.
none of her children were present, at least Leni should be ok, ut her son, her precious Saryn.....was kidnapped of one of her oldest and most powerful enemies, Mistress Therana, the famous Telvanni councillor.
This meant total war!.....
Now she had to go and see Raavin, so he could mobilize the entire Redoran army, then the Ashlanders.....Sul-Matuul and Kaushad must be notified immediately....
Maybe Sel could deliver some messages..he was out there somewhere....
"Sel! my friend! Do you read me?....itīs me Serene and I need your help, please Sel if you read this, give me a sign...."
OOC: I hope Florodine is around so he can post as Darum!
Sel, Ship
As soon as Sel asked Miles the question, he heard something trying to get into his head. Without really thinking, he pushed it away, more intent on Miles' answer than anything else.
OOC: sorry, got other things going on with Sel
Akar, Ship
Akar took the potion from Therana suspiciously. If she was trying to stop him from pleasing....her....then this woman had another thing coming.
"What is this for?" he demanded, holding the vial up to where she could see.
OOC: Hehe no problems....you know desperate women!
Serene, NV
Ok....no luck with contacting Sel....then what? Raavin....yes but where was he to be found?
She just had to gather the Redoran forces.....somehow!
Therana, ship
"Oh that..." she chuckled, "That is a potion that makes you even more irresistible to the very important lady you are to meet in a while....so you just down it and youīll see"
They were close now, the towers of Sadrith Mora was clearly to be seen and soon..soon the mighty Amili would take care of this young man......hmmm he was pretty good looking......maybe......just imagine...there were some potions that twisted peopleīs sights very much.....so maybe if she, Therana, would give Akar a potion that made him atrtracted to her.....to think she was Amili.....that would be very amusing...
Then she came to think of Dratha....poor Dratha, she wouldnīt accept it....no men allowed it was...But Therana was interested in both .....she liked both women....and men
Theranaīs head was full of different thoughts.....so many opportunities
(OOC: Here I post!!!!)
Miles, Ship
Miles, caught off guard by Sel's question, was snapped back to reality from his daydream.
"I haven't ever met him," Miles said wryly, "And I don't suppose that will change."
"The bloke," he continued petulantly, had to go and get himself killed, then I ran after him looking for a dead brother, but I suppose idiocy runs in my family.
Sel, Ship
Wow, someone that agrees with me. Sel thought, merely to amuse himself.
"I'm sure he didn't mean to die, Miles. In fact, I'm sure of it. He and Megil got in a fight over something. Dead Vivec knows I don't remember what they were even fighting about. I do remember Megil going somewhat overboard though. One second they were tumbling on the ground, the next Niran wasn't moving."
After about the second sentence, Sel forgot that he was even talking. His eyes glazed over and he was trying to remember details more than he was trying to tell a story. In truth, he would have kept most of that to himself if he was really aware of what he was doing.
Akar, Ship
"I want to make something clear." he said firmly, throwing the potion overboard. "I don't trust you."
Therana, ship
"But why sweetie? I want no harm to come to you...Iīm going to take you to a wonderful woman......the woman in your dreams...."
Therana did not mention that she came to him as a friend of his mother,.....she feared that the mentioning of Serene would bring some remembrance to him and thus spoil the whole mission
Therana chanted silently.....a spell that made Akar a bit more dizzy....a bit more yearning for the unknown lady.....at least she hoped the spell would have that effect on him....
Darum, Zergonipal
Darum sat at his bed with a bucket next to it. He felt awful and had unfortunatly had to clean it already. He sat and cursed and threatend Yurna to himself. Sedrene may not have done it, however he would not apologize, Sedrene was a threat anyway, he probably wanted to usurp the erebenimsum anyway. He thought as he spat into the bucket
Aryon, New Vivec
Aryon felt awful, this was not who he was, however it had to be done. He walked outside and took a drink of brandy, not a normal behavior for the councilor. He walked the streets for a while, it was getting dark now and though New Vivec was normally warm, the later months could sometimes get nippy. Aryon breathed and he could see his breath, he was not a happy man. All that remained now was to get out to Gnisis.
Florodine, Molag Mar
The rebellion in the city had been suppressed and the people hailed Florodine as once again a liberator. He awaited Redorans call for help which from recent actions, he assumed would be quick. His men were already getting ready for an expedition to the closest Telvanni city, Tel Branora.
Dalrus, Caldera
Her army was ready, her tower rose high above caldera, she was indeed a powerful figure. She only awaited Hlaalu's movements. Redoran and Telvanni would be at war soon, but what of Hlaalu? would they sit around to do nothing? She wanted war, she needed to test her new army, all she needed was the go ahead from her leaders, and she would march into any place.
Sel, Ship
"I do remember now." he said, realizing too late that he'd gone too far to stop now. "Niran was having one of his....emotional breakdowns." he began, not able to think of anything else to cal Niran's outbursts and odd reactions.
"Megil said something rude to Celia, a healer travelling with us...wait, no I have it backwards. Celia said something rude to Megil, and Megil snapped back. Everybody was grumpy, tired, and I think we had all just fought about three thousand battles without sleeping. Niran told Megil not to snap at Celia, and told Celia not to snap at Megil. Somehow this stupidity ended up in a fight." he said, remembering that he had been pretty disturbed at Celia's grumpiness and had told her to go to sleep.
"Anyway, I think Megil accidentally pushed him off a cliff, and when we checked it out, he wasn't breathing." Sel suddenly regretted telling the story; he would have rather made up some sort of heroic story to tell Miles about his brother.
"I considered it murder at the time, and was pretty pissed. I think I even swore to avenge Niran. I'm not so sure now. It was so long ago, and Arcyakt was quick to take our minds off such things."
He looked over at Leni who was still happily grooming her teddy bear.
Akar, Sadrith Mora
"If I walk through these doors, and she isn't there, you had better expect a slow and painful death." he warned. "Should I walk through?"
Darum, Zergonipal
Darum spat towards Sedrenes feet. "It is definitely over due, this apology of yours." he said shakily. "It is accepted, though I am just being a stand up kind of guy" he said cockily. "My forces are still in this, I will kill yurna, personally" he said happily
Yurna, Sadrith Mora
Yurna just arrived on a boat. The city was quieter than normal. Yurna stepped off the boat, and quickly ran to the gateway in where she would rent a room. She had no idea where she would go and what she should do...
(OOC: Time to throw a little Niran in here, mix a little Niran in there . . . . And in comment to Serene's request for declaration of war . . .So it begins.
)
Miles, Ship
Miles stepped forward aggressively, eyeing Sel angrily as he yelled, completely ignoring the fact that a little girl was sitting not a few feet away from them.
"How the hell do you go about accidentally pushing someone off a cliff, huh? That bastarde is ruling a damned city right now, and you and your bunch of friends hadn't the nerve to confront him before he assumed power. You have a madman ruling vivec!"
If I get a hold of him, I'll kill him. Or maybe . . .
He calmed after a few moments, but was still visibly upset, pacing back and forth.
He needs to be displaced, even if he is a suitable ruler. I . . will do what I deem necessary. If I have to kill Megil I will, but I have other things in mind. There shall be payback for my brother.
(OOC: note the freaking out.
)
Stauros and Delfran (arn't dead yet i'm sorry
)->Balmora
Stauros stepped off the siltstrider and walked down the ramp. The two were greated by a swarm of people and they made their way to Stauros' manor. Stauros made his way to his room and fell onto the bed.
He heard the door open, "Wow, it's good to be home."
"yes it is." Delfran set a bag down on the dresser and turned to Stauros, "So when do we leave for Suran? Whens the fort to be done?"
Stauros sat up and shrugged, "Beats me, but i'm sure we'll get a message when its done. but on to buissness, i'm going to tour the Fort here and see how its moving along. You should come and test some of the men."
Delfran smiled, "Soulds like fun. When are we moving out?"
"Oh in a few minutes or hours. I want to set everything up." Stauros picked up the bag on the bed and started putting everything away.
"Okay, call me hen your done, i'll be in the armory." Delfran left and started fixing up his outfit.
Dalrus, Caldera
Dalrus looked out from atop her new tower, the view of Caldera from the top was beautiful, the large mountain city was sprawling with soldiers, her soldiers. She had now become a great leader of her city, all that needed to be done was a war. Wred was moving too slow, she needed to test her new war machine. Dalrus wanted a war, her knights might have to start one. Either that or Hlaalu would have to stop their whimpy policy and start acting more agressive. She walked down into the lower levels of the Govenor's hall now Hla Ambrose, and called her knights
"Men we ride to Balmora, from Balmora we await the arrival of Wred" Dalrus said as she mounted her Kagouti. The group of knights all mounted and started riding south towards the capital...
The Silhouette, Dagon Fel
The Silhouette stood atop the large tower near Dagon Fel. The town had grown into a minor city and the tower was now in the middle of the town. All around town thousands of orcs stood into line dressed as redoran warriors. Orcs were allowed into the house, and such a large army would be welcome. They also had at least two thousand Nord reavers, who would provide redoran with a large navy. The Silhouette had already read all books on redoran that was in the library of Nathanoj, and the library of Dagon Fel.
The Silhouette said a spell and all the shadows that had surrounded him, his super magic, left. He would gain it back when redoran accepted him. He had no intention of destroying redoran, for they were honorable, and were true warriors. He respected this. He jumped aboard a ship where the other silhouettes had all done the same. The moldair were waiting aboard and their durzog mounts were on the ship next to them. Three ships for the Brood were also prepared, and the rest were for the orcs. Following the orcs were the reaver battle ships which would also fight.
The large armada now made their way south. They would land on the coast parallel to Ald Ruhn, and then march across. They were a huge army, and Redoran would now be rewarded for their honorable methods and fightingd...
Therana, SM
"Well Lady Amili, what do you say? Isnīt he a fine specimen of the male race?"
She chuckled and leaned back on a narrow bench, watching Akar walking around in Amiliīs chamber
Stauros and Delfran->Balmora
Staruos walked inot the armory and got Delfran. Then the two walked over to the Fort. Upon arival they found alot of people training and Delfran left, seeking someone to test. Stauros continued and walked inside. Stauros looked around and eventually found the captian in charge.
"Ah 'ello Serjo Stauros. What, may I ask, brings you here today?"
Stauros shook the man's hand. "Ah yes thank you captian Zenori. I just came to see how things were moving along and such. I think Delfran is out seeing how well the recruits are doing."
"Ah yes good, good. Now ser." he said pushing papers away in a drawer. "SO you want a tour of the place I asume?"
"Sure, that works. So Were is your armory?"
The captain and Stauros walked around and did tour stuff... (ooc:
I didn't think you wanted to listen to all the stuff)
Dalave->Dagon Fel
Dalave watched as the last of the silhouette's ship pass out of site ad she turned to her most trusted man. "So when the Heck will our stuff be done?"
"Well a two or three days at the most I would say."
"Good, After we are finished we will leave." Dalave turned and looked upon the center of the town were the brood set up all the anvils and other equipment and were finishing weapons and armor left and right. Dalave made her way down the hill and looked at the equipment.
The Silhouette, Ald Ruhn
The army saw the city of Ald Ruhn off in the distance. It was quite fortress like. Huge towering pillers with redoran archers were everywhere, and a large wall protected the rest of the city. The Silhouettes army was enourmous and he hoped he could get into the city and join without them thinking he was attacking. Redoran was his new home, and thousands of orc warriors would defend it. Surly he would become govenor of a large redoran city by bringing this force. They were greeted by shouts of joy as the archers saw a huuuge army coming dressed in redoran armor
"And who might you be good friend?" a man said as he walked down the steps from under skar. The army was set up in perfect lines in the large mainstreet of the city.
"My name is Malren yelari. I am from Dagon Fel. I have come here to join the redorans, for they have proven themselves worthy warriors."
"Well i am almost sure you can join. However i must transport you to New Vivec to speak with Raavin." the short dunmer said.
"Then do so" the Silhouette hissed.
"Very well," said the confused man. He transported the Silhouette to New Vivec to the chamber outside Raavin's office.
"I have traveled for three days just to be transported here!?" the Silhouette said to himself. He knocked on the door of raavin...
Sel, Ship
"Something like that." Sel answered, not exactly wanting to make Miles more angry. If he was mad at this, Sel didn't want to imagine him after he expained the situation with Celia.
Amili, Sadrith Mora
"He is." She admitted, but with some amount of disdain. It really was too bad that he was a half-breed.
"Akar, go find a servant and tell him to send you to your chambers." Amili ordered.
Akar, Sadrith Mora
He didn't know why, but he felt that he should do everything in his power to please this woman in front of him. As much as he hated being parted from her, he still had to do as she said.
He made his way downstairs, and soon found himself being led to a cell. IT saddened him to think that his mistress would imprison him, but if it would please her, he would gladly do it.
Serene, Raavinīs office
She turned around watching as Raavin told the unexpected visitr to enter.....still her mind was occupied with what she would bring for the rescue of Saryn....
"Who would visit Raavin tonight? I wonder......"
The Silhouette, Raavin's office
The Silhouette opened the door and slowly walked in. He walked over to Raavin's desk and hissed. "I, have under my control thousands of soldiers. Not one hour ago we arrived in Ald Ruhn and were let in with joy from your people. I have deemed Redoran most righteous of the houses to deserve my services" he again hissed. "I am more powerful than any enemy you will face, will you let me fight for redoran, I could govern a city of your choosing" the Silhouette said in his cold hissy voice. 'And of course i will still have Dagon fel' he thought.
"What do you say great master Raavin?"
Sel, Ship
"Could you watch her for a second without scaring her to death?" Sel asked Miles as he walked out of the cabin and into the fresh night air.
He loved the sea. Since working for a 'mainland' port, he began to hate rivers. He normally travelled the rivers and gave the cargo to real sea-going ships, but every once in a while, he was given the opportunity to take the entire trip. Those were the ones he loved. The smell of the salty ocean air, the soft roll of the waves, the spray that hit his face when the wind picked up, it made his job a lot less boring.
He found himself looking at the stars, and wondering what kind of lecture he would get when he got home. His thoughts on that topic immediately halted when he looked closer at the stars. He was no navigator, but he knew north from south. And they were going north.
Sel walked over to the captains cabin and banged loudly on the door.
"What do you want?" the captain asked as he opened the door.
"Why are we going north?" he asked. "Cyrodiil is to the south."
"Because I ain't runnin' a blockade." the captain replied firmly.
"But I paid you to run the blockade."
"Care to take that complaint up with the Empire? I'm sure they'll love the idea of people running their blockade."
"You know damned well there's no Imperial officer around anymore."
"Exactly. Now sit in your cabin and wait until we reach Dagon Fel. There are some fellow Reavers I'd like to meet with there."
"We are going to Cyrodiil." Sel said, drawing his sword and placing its point on the captain's neck.
"Kill me, and that little girl o' yours dies."
Sel thought it through; an entire crew against himself, Miles, and a five-year-old girl. "Fine. We'll get off at Dagon Fel."
"Good. Now go to sleep."
Sel walked back to the cabin, frustrated, angry, and unable to do a thing.
Stauros->Fort Whatever its called
Stauros and Zenori walked outside and watched Delfran test the recruits.
Dalave Vandalas->Dagon Fell
Dalave looked over the production and someone came up to her. "Dalave, a ship is aproching, looks like a travling ship. Its to small for a merchant or a army and to big for a fishing boat."
"Okay well if its to small for an army boat then why do you care? we could take them on anyways."
"yeah, but I just thought you wanted to know."
"Well then lets give them a welcoming party." Dalave called for a handful of people and they all went to the habor and waited for the ship to (take its lousy freaking time to
) dock.
Sel, Ship
The Captain banged on his door not an hour later, demanding that they get off his ship.
Sel muttered something unintelligible, but obviously insulting before picking up Leni and his things and walking out of the cabin.
He turned back towards Miles. "Coming?"
As he walked off the ship and onto the island, he was greeted by a not-so-nice-looking group of people, who he thought was lead by the woman in front of him.
"Who are you?" he asked, an agitated tone apparent in his voice.
The Silhouette, New Vivec
This was all the Silhouette needed to here, he did not care about this useless man before him, all he needed was a flag to go under (and a group to RP with
) so he could take what he wanted. Dagon Fel was useful and larger than Gnisis (in the RP it is) however not close enought to anything. With Gnisis he would be within striking distance of anything Redoran. What annoyed him was that Faction leaders seemed to spend more time with New Vivec than their own cities.
"Thank you friend, however why are you not in Ald ruhn" the Silhouette said with a hint of pure anger
Sel, Dagon Fel dock
"I am in a perfect position to be asking questions." Sel replied. "I arrive at a dock only to find that someone expects me. I want to know who, so I ask." he said, as if explaining to a five-year-old.
The Silhouette, Raavin's office.
"My name is Malren yelari" the Silhoutte said giving him his fake name. "I have reason to suspect that a war is about to start between the two houses Redoran and Telvanni. I have heard of tensions rising, and wonder when the war will start" the silhouette said trying to hide his lust for killing. "My troops are ready at a moments notice to attack Tel Vos." he said thinking of a new place for a tower.
Serene, Raavinīs office
She stood in the corner overhearing the conversation between Raavin and the other man. She did not want to interfere, but her concern about Saryn overwhelmed her so she asked:
"Please gentlemen, Iīm donīt intend to sound rude or impatient but donīt we have a rescue-mission to attend to?"
Therana, SM Amiliīs chambers
"So Lady Amili..isnīt he a nice specimen of the male race? that son of a witch...."
Therana chuckled evil......
"What will you do with him? Ha, Serene should be really upset by now, I wonder what sheīs doing right now?"
Ryyden Hurrano, Sadrith Mora
Ryyden stormed into the tower at Sadrith mora very angrily. The guards were scared as he walked past them with ice building up on his fingers. A guard yelled,
"You cant go in there, Miss Amili is in a meeting!" the man yelled
Ryyden levitated up anyway.
"Amili when is the war starting, Dratha is just asking me to destroy her. I saw her in the market yesterday and she ran away from me when i wanted to talk of Telvanni war happenings" he said in a huff
Ok, here i come.
Telina:Wildernes.
Telina, was as normal roaming the lands, and at the moment she was just outside New Vivec. Suddenly she...felt something, the precense of an old friend, which she had not met in years, she were in pain, she was angry and worried. For years now Telina had shunned the civilisation, and consentrated more on learning, study everything that was to study out in the nature, but after a little thinking, she made up her mind.
She spoke the woid-walk spell that would take her to New-Vivec, and then found herself in the Telvanni section. It was strange, the place was being riggedup, as though they suspected an attak, a little looking around madeher even more uneasy. She wanderedthe corridors, untill she found someone of at least a suitable rank.
-"You there, spellwright, whats happening here", she said in a very demanding voice. "None of your buisness, scum". "Oh so we're being rude are we, you happen to talk to Telina Delvanni, the rightfull Arch-Magister of the house, now I'm gonna ask you again, and if you ansver me right I might let you live". She then extended her hand, and the rude mer was lifted up as if a invisible hand had gripped him by the throat, and was slowly choking him.
-"I-I-I'm not allowed to tell anyone, but si-since you ar" SPLASH!!!! the ribcage of the mer suddenly exploded outwards, and he fell dead to the floor..."Wrong answer", she simply said.
She walked out of the Telvanni canton again, while thinking of the depths her house had fallen...she was ebarassed by it, this was just the reason she had suddenly just left without even giving a message. Somehow she found herself at the Redoran canton, she could feel that her old friend was in there, so she entered the plasa, and wandered around, reflecting upon why she had left, had she not they propably wouldnt be in such a serious position as they were now.
Serene, Raavinīs office
Obviously Raavin was too occupied to really pay attention to her, so she decided to go for a walk. When entering the Plaza area of the Redoran Canton she noticed a very beautiful silvery-haired woman looking somewhat distraught.
"Hello there, just arrived have you? Can I help you?" Serene approached the woman with courtesy
Serene, Redoran Plaza NV
"OH! Itīs really YOU Telina? why thatīs wonderful.....of course we could have a bite to eat....then I do have an important mission you see......my sonīs been kidnapped and I just askedRaavin....to declare war....."
Serene suddenly went silent......
"my dear, I canīt tell her I asked him to declare war against telvanni...she IS a telvanni for gods sake"
OOC: Tellie, the sentence in italics are Sereneīs thoughts, Telina doesnīt hear her saying it because she ainīt saying it out loud!
OOC:Are you sure Telina cant hear what she is saying...remember Telina is one of the best telepathics in the world...but well she dont care anyway...
Telina, NV
-"Ahh dont worry Renie, I'm gonna help redoran out of this, but well I dont like entering the minds of friends...it make mefeel guilty, so why dont you just tell me exactly what happened, as I dont want to force it out of you...remember i am still the rightfull leader of the house, imagine what chaos I can make with issuing ordes that goes agains the orders given by that whelp who is currently leading".
-"So lets discuss it over a dinner at your place, as mine is propably filled up with some Telvannies that think they are important, worthless dogs they are".
She smiled at Serene, she had never told her that she could the art of telepathy, all to well.
OOC: Hmm In this rp Amili regards herself to be the real leader of Telvanni i reckon..ohhhh beware of Amili!
Serene, Redoran plaza,NV
"Ok Iīll tell you......over a drink, I suppose an hour or two wonīt make that much difference to Saryn"
Serene sighed.....she was more worried about her son than she would admit
OOC: Alright guys, nice improvement, more than one post in an entire day:O!, now lets see if we can get this going again
Dalrus Varus, Balmora
Dalrus and the battlemages of Caldera arrived atop their kagouti's. They were greeted in balmora with respect however, they went straight to the council hall.
Dalrus was much angrier looking then she was before. She was still gorgeous however, she did not have a smile like she used to. Her hate for Amili still burned strong, she would take her out if it was the last thing she would do.
There had to be a way to start a war with Telvanni, she felt something big had happened, with redoran and telvanni. She thought of serene, that nice women down in vivec, who she had met at the battle. Dalrus asked at once to be transported to New Vivec. By an old mage transporter who was once part of the mages guild. Maseline(sp?) by name. The friendly bosmer transported her to the hlaalu plaza.
Dalrus walked towards where she felt serene's precence, and she felt some extremem anxiety. Something bad had happened, that much was sure.
Dalrus stopped along the way to get some comberry pie which was delicious. But sent a telepathic message to serene
OOC: we are in the Redoran plaza, this is a perfect chance to meet Telina as well.
IC: Telina, Redoran plaza
Telina suddenly stopped, and felt...something. A new person had come here, someone who could perform telepathy, at least a little, she had to meet this person.
-"Renie, wait a moment, there are someone in this city...someone powerfull".
OOC: Look post number two.
Amili, Sadrith Mora
"He is." She admitted, but with some amount of disdain. It really was too bad that he was a half-breed.
"Akar, go find a servant and tell him to send you to your chambers." Amili ordered.
As Akar exited, Ryyden entered, giving his sstory angrily.
"Ryyden, we do not have time for your petty squabbles with Dratha. you can either challenge her to a duel now and end this, or wait until after we have crushed the Redorans. Either way, stop complaining to me."
Akar, Sadrith Mora
Akar obeyed happily, but there was still a hint of sadness there. Why didn't Amil want him close? He had to please her...
OOC: Deja Vu (didn't you already say that exact thing? Didn't I repeat that exact thing?
)
Sel, Dagon Fel
"I used to live in New Vivec, but I came here to avoid the coming war among the Houses." he lied, purposefully avoiding giving a name. "And this child is the daughter of..."
He struggled to think of a famous couple that consisted of a redguard and an imperial, but it was too difficult. The only one that came to mind was Jonacin and Serene, and he sure as hell didn't want to tell the truth....
"A friend of mine died and left his daughter to me to care for." he explained. "And this," he said, putting a hand on Miles' shoulder, "Is the girl's half-brother."
At least that lie worked, since Leni was half Imperial, and Miles was full.
He immediately thought of the possiblilty that the Captain would rat him out, but it was soon a moot point as the ship began to leave. Apparently, the captain lied about wanting to meet Reavers as well as he did about taking them to Cyrodiil.
Therana Amiliīs chambers
"Nahhh please Lady Amili" Therana whined, "Please donīt let him hurt Dratha! sheīs a good friend!.....and why do you send the witchīs son away? Donīt you want to....hehe use him?" Theranaīs smile was all slippery....
Serene, Redoran Plaza
"Too much magicka floating around......canīt concentrate on Saryn, this is getting on my nerves"
Serene stood, politely smiling as Dalrus approached....apparently Telina was excited about the newcomer....this was getting a bit awkward....two Telvanni-mages ......and far to near.
Serene felt cold sweat running down her back.....this was maybe not god at all....she made a faint attempt of going back to Raavinīs office again....but didnīt, she was far too curious...
Sel, Dagon Fel
"I happen to like being dunmer." he replied, flashing a smile.
"So what do you call yourselves? Who are you allied with?" he asked, hoping to get a feel for his familiar yet very strange place.
Dalave
"As do I. We? We are the Brood, and allied? Ha, We work alone."
Sel, Dagon Fel
"The Brood, huh?" he said, scratching his head. "And I take it you're the leader, Dalave?"
Dalave->dagon Fel
"No, I'm just the spokes woman and the boss's gal." Dalave took a quick scan, and saw her right hand man, "The boss is that big brute over there. The one sitting on the wall."
hmm, wonder how long it'll be till he catches on.
Dalave turned to walk over and motioned to Sel, "You coming?"
Sel, Dagon Fel
Sel nodded and handed Leni over to Miles. He didn't want her to be involved if anything got ugly.
"So does this brute have a name?" he asked as he caught up with Dalave.
Dalave->Dagon Fel
"Yeah, he's Athal." Dalave and Sel approched Atahl, "Hey boss this is who was on the ship."
Athal jumped down and eyed Sel over, knowing when Dalave called him boss to go with it, "So whats your name?" Athal aasked in a scruff voice.
(aw heck I'll post Athal's stats gimme a sec)
Sel, Dagon Fel
Sel held out his hand. "Selenil." he replied with a disarming smile, almost hoping that this Athal would't believe him. "And yours?" he asked, even though he already knew the man's name.
He suddenly regretted giving his real name. It could get him in unwanted trouble, and bring unwanted attention. After all, only a select few knew who the empty pedestal in New Vivec belonged to, and almost anyone could claim the name. Sel suspected that many already had. It was a bad side-effect of having a blank statue that Sel hadn't thought of until this moment.
Dalave and Athal->Dagon Fel...still
Dalave looked at Sel witheds a raised brow and Athal looked at his hand. Just as Sel was starting to retract it Athal granbbed it and shoock it, "Har har har, Good one, what ever though, that Sel's a bastarde though, he helped that Imerial witch, Serene or somethin?" Athal smiled a broken smile.
(ooc: I couldn't resist.. it all just popped into my head.. oh and ps thats just Athal's prospect.. Serene is awsome)
Sel, Dagon Fel
Sel smiled and gave Athal's hand a hearty shake. his name had another effect that he hadn't forseen; it put an air of mystery around him, as if he was hiding his true identity, when he really wasn't.
"Oh, yes, I'd forgotten all about Serene." he said in joking terms to continue the masquerade. He thought all this was extremely ironic, hiding behind his own identity.
Athal and Dalave->Same place
"So, what are you doin here?"
"he's fl-"
"Let the man speak will ya!?" Athal raised a hand and Dalave recoiled. Athal motioned to Sel to follow and headed off away fromt he rest of the group.
Dalave turned away and smiled. She waited untill she was out of range and muttered, "Well that was easy enough."
Sel, Dagon Fel
Sel was disgusted at the fact that this man would actually hit a woman, but he kept it to himself; he was outnumbered here.
"I was visiting New Vivec, admiring my statue," he said with a wink. "When the place became a battleground. I didn't really want to get involved in that stuff. I prefer smaller fights, know what I mean? Anyway, I got passage here with my friend's daughter and son--well, I guess they're mine now--and here we are." he answered, leaving out quite a few details, and putting his own twist on things yet again.
"So is there a place here for us to stay here on your island?"
Athal Banhama->Dagon Fel
Athal listened to Sel and thought about it for a second. "Well, not really. We have the ruined Hotel and a few worn down houses. So how long are you gonna stay here anyways?"
Sel, Dagon Fel
"In all honesty, I don't know." he replied. "It may be awhile. Unless...I don't have to join your band to stay do i?"
Athal
"i'd be a bonus if anythign else. Uh you could gain some respect or protection or something, becasue i'm not sure if you noticed but you got some dirty glares back there." He said stickin his thumb back at the group.
Damn, how long can I keep this up, I can't throw out memberships
Athal gave a shrug and sat down on a stump.
Sel, Dagon Fel
"I don't mean to be disrespectful," Sel began. "But I don't need any damned protection."
"Out of curiosity, though, what must be done before someone becomes a member of the Brood?"
Athal->Dagon Fel
"Suit yourself, but if a few guys get together you wont be havin to good of a time. Usually you would have to go through a few tests and I'd have to chat with a few people."
Sel, Dagon Fel
Sel narrowed his eyes. "If you're the leader, why do you need to chat with anyone? And unless my ears decieve me, Dalave said that this was her town and she made the rules. Unless she's your wife, I'd say that there is some sort of deception happening here."
Sel grinned. "But deception is okay I guess. My name is Selenil, after all."
Athal
"Crud, and your good." Athal scowled at Sel, "So your really that Bastarde Sel? Well if I get it your gonna get it aswell. And no she ain't my life, and if any of this goes father then me and you then i'll skin you."
Sel, Dagon Fel
"How about this: I don't tell, and you don't tell." he suggested. He held out a hand. "Deal?"
Athal
"Sure, why not?" Athal took Sel's hand, "So you wanna join or are you gonna rough it?"
Sel, Dagon Fel
"If I knew what the whole point of your gang is, and as long as I don't have to stay for forever, I would consider it."
Dalrus Varus, New Vivec
"I am Dalrus Varus, councilor of the great house Hlaalu and governess of Caldera." Dalrus said walking up. "Hello serene" she said after saying this. She gave Serene a message blocked off from Telina. Serene, i trust you enough to tell you this. I was formerly Ambrose, the 'godess of thunder' from telvanni. Do not let Telina know i am the former Telvanni leader. "So former leader eh? I thought that monster Amili was the leader"
Serene NV
Serene took the note, not showing anything. Her face was empty, she just smiled friendly...
"Ambrose? could it be possible?, then there is more power here than one could imagine!"
"Amili??? why do I get such a weird feeling hearing her name?.....That name is somewhat connected with Saryn.....could it be...? That Amili has got the boy?"
Serene had to focus hard not to show the faint trembling that affected her.....
Dalrus Varus, New Vivec
"Sure why not? I would like to ease up on all these polilitics, and the stress of not having a solid leader" she said smiling. "So where are we going, i know there is this bar in the plaza where they have the best drinks. It was just opened a few days ago. It was rebuilt after that shadow creature destroyed the plaza not too long ago." she said pointing off towards it.
"Do you remember hearing about that Serene?"
Miles, Dagon Fel
Miles took Leni without a word, but had been listening closely.
He didn't like what was going on, this was more than just a slight rupture in his plan to return to Cyrodiil, and it was starting to "tick" him off.
The Silhouette, New Vivec
"Very well" he said icily. "I will go to my duties at once, and prepare the army.
Telina,New Vivec,
Ok, its settled then, lets go", Telina smiled as well.
Dalrus Varus, New Vivec
"Very well" she said walking off towards it. "You guys are coming right" she said leading them off towards it. She sensed magic from Telendil, and of course from serene, and wanted to find what her stnading was in these days
Sel, Dagon Fel
"So you're just a bunch of thugs that steal and kill only because you can." Sel said, voicing his thoughts aloud.
"You can all rot in hell."
Athol->Dagon Fel
Athol gave Sel a deep growl, "That may be so but you have two choices, either this conversation doesn't go beyond me and you or you can be hunted down like a dog."
Athol stood up. "Its your choice, you look like you have skill, even if you wont join in, you could still get some respect by chalenging a few knuckle heads around here. There are way to many of them."
Raxle O'Conner
Somewhere in Vvardenfell...
The breeze drifted up into Raxle's uncovered face bringing smells pleasing, and its opposite all together. Small price to pay for "deserting", he imagined. Little bits of memory fluttered like the wings of some small creature while his mind probed the seemingly dark endless deep that lay before him...
"He's dead Lieutenant... The poison finally brought him down."
...His conscious was abruptly stirred at the sight of numerous small boats, sailing to the village. Their shouts must of been in glee, hopefully a good catch. If so, Raxle could stand to have fresh food instead of the disease ridden loads that the fishermen usually brought in...
"What now? Now that Albarnias has bit the dust someones got to head up the Legion.. Raxle?"
...A bird landed several feet near O'Conner, its eyes prodded over the rocky incrusted lands, searching for nurishment, searching for the continuation of life...
"Damn't if I serve in the Captains sted, what do I know of.. ruling and the sort?!"
"It doesn't matter Raxle.. You were choosin to serve as Falx's second.. And thusly the situation makes you the first."
...The sun was beginning to dip into the vast horizon that layed so pristinely still, un-altered by the corrupted touch of civilization. Although his mind urged him to return to the town, his body fought with its own ferocity...
"Raxle! Raxle! If you leave, you are deserting your post! You will be hung for it!"
"Try me.."
...After a quiet walk, and a rather good dinner, Raxle retired to his rented place. The elder Dunmer lady that rented the hole in the wall was a kindly person, respective but caring all the same. She left him alone, and that was satisfing enough.
After all, peace was all Raxle really ever wanted.. He thought about home as he lay on his cot.. Thought about what "used" to be home, back in Cyrodill. Then he thought about Alicia. Before he completely slumbered off into sleep he imagined living quiet comfortably with her here... And then sleep over-came him.
ooc: Sorry for not getting on and posting much, I have had alot of other stuff on my lists
Sel, Dagon Fel
Sel made his way back to Miles and Leni.
"Come on, let's find some shelter that's far away from these bastardes." he suggested. He took Leni from Miles and they walked away from the band of dunmer, looking for any sort of shelter.
Sel, Dagon Fel
Sel, Leni and Miles came upon a nice-looking house, and having been unable to find any shelter in the last two hours, he walked up the steps and knocked on the door, hoping that they would be allowed in.
"Hopefully they won't think we're part of that gang back there." he mumbled to nobody in particular.
OOC: it's ROlston's house, FYI
Serene in the company of Raavin
"So archmaster, are we off then? Iīm worried about Saryn...." She was also a bit worried of the fact that her actions may have triggered something big..something that would cause blood-shed...
Leni, in the arms of Sel
"Uncle Sel...Iīm scared.....tell me itīs gonna be ok!"
Dratha, Tel Vos
Dratha sat in her chambers, a bit grumpy as always when she had had too much business with men. That always made her in a bad mood, also she feared there would be some attack coming. Apparently that bitch Therana had organised some toy-boy for the even bigger bitch Amili...that could only cause trouble ......
Therana, Amiliīs residence SM
She was curious about the young man, Sereneīs son, he was a half-breed..now that was interesting, apparently Serene have had some tryst with a dunmer..or was it unvoluntarily? No way...Serene could make any male creature go...totally mad so ...
She chuckled and wondered if she maybe could borrow the young man..later..when Amili had finished what she wanted to do with him....
Stiner, NV
Stiner had been lost wandering through ashland reigon for months,going about looking for new vivec, all while living of what he could. Kwama, Alits,even some scamps he ran into.
Soon He had found himself walking along the road near new vivec, trying to find some food and shelter for the night.
He walked up to the main gate and knocked.
"eck... im a bit worn out from traveling... but im sure ive been here before... i remember the guard told me i had to get some papers or something... eck ill ask again for the hell of it."
Stiner awaited for a guard with a grin under his helmet...
(OOC:
Well, then I guess its a good idea to talk to him like he's %#@^, isn't it?)
Miles, Dagon Fel
Miles took a step back from the man, and gave him a disgusted glare.
"Watch yourself buddy" he said spitefully, his hand on the hilt of his sword, "If you had fallen onto me you would've lost your head ."
(OOC: Too late to pick up where I left off? If it is the post will go bye-bye
)
Dimitre, New Vivec
Dimitre clambered out of the Canalworks slowly. His armour was dinged up pretty bad and his sword had chunks missing out of it. He knew no ammount of repair could fix any of it, so he just took all his armour off and tossed it into the river, along with his sword. As the sword made contact on the water, blood quickly started to seperate throughout the waves and ripples, cleansing the blade of everything but the chunks of flesh, which caused the blade to sink almost immediately.
Dimitre couldn't put his finger on it, but a fowl smell illuminated throughout the streets of New Vivec, like something bad recently took place. Dimitre thought it was just his cothes that were covered in the blood of most of the dark brotherhood and himself, so he took a swig of the healing potion he looted from one of the chests in the Canalworks. Even with his wounds healed, he could still smell the awkwardness in the air.
The streets seemed oddly deserted for what time of the day it was. Granted, there were two moons, but the days still were long if you had nothing better to do then wait to waist away.
Dimitre, Serene's Manor
Dimitre walked into Serene's manor after knocking for several minutes with no answer.
"Maybe they went out to lunch? Yeah thats it, they went to lunch."
Dimitre thought to himself, trying to block out the feeling of evil that radiated through the house. Dimitre walked into where Serenes' room was, hopeing that she wouldn't mind if he barrowed some of her clothes. Granted Serene was a woman, there still should have been a common pair of clothes laying around for emergancies and the like.
Dimitre finally found a shirt and a pair of paints to wear about five minutes into his search, avoiding what looked like jewlery boxes. He wasn't a theif! Yeah, he just stole her pair of clothes, but he was going to pay her back once he got the coin to pay for it. Dimitre walked back into the main room though and was once again flushed with the feelings of sarrow and hatred and self-pitty.
After Dimitre finished his search of the house, he went back again into the main room, and almost slipped on a bluish-type bottle with some distilled liquid dripping out of it. He knelt down next to it, dabbed his finger in the little puddle of the stuff and tasted it and immediately jumped back, trying to spit out every little last taste of what he had consumed!
"Poison? What kind of poison is this though, I've never seen it before!?" Dimitre said under his breath.
Dimitre faintly remembered how his mind felt when he was being read by Serene, and thought that maybe he could convay that feeling into a brief message back to Serene and hopefully get her to talk to him again and figure out where everyone is, and what happened. Dimitre bowed his head, concentrated with closed eyes, and thought of Serene, as if she was standing right in front of him and started talking inside his mind to the residual image of her.
"Serene, this is Dimitre! I don't know where you are, or where Akar is or anyone for that matter but I just found a little pool of what appears to be some type of drug on the ground where I last saw your son, Akar! Please, come back to your Manor and talk to me!"
Dimitre equally forced his mind to send the message out faster. He had never tried concentrating on something so hard, it almost made him pass out. Because he almost fainted, he assured himself it worked. He pulled out a restore fatigue potion out of his pouch and gulpt it down.
There was nothing for him to do but hope that Serene got his message and would come back to the manor. He desided that if he didn't hear from Serene by the next afternoon, twenty-four hours from now, that he would continue the search and find out what happened on his own. He didn't know why, but he had an urge to check the docks.
Sel, Dagon Fel
Sel gave Miles a glare. He didn't want the boy to make the mistake of destroying their opportunity for shelter.
"Hello...uh...Sir, how are this fine evening?" Sel asked, in highly exaggerated tones. Hopefully the drunk man could understand.
Sel leaned over to whisper in Miles' ear quietly. "There's no man like a drunk man to let you in his home. We have to milk this for all its worth."
Serene, NV,Raavinīs office
Serene was sitting quietly on an uncomfortable chair, listening to the conversation between Raavin and the other man called Carstein something.....but after a while their voices seemed to fade away....a noise filled her mind, and out of that noise she could hear a familiar voice......
""Serene, this is Dimitre! I don't know where you are, or where Akar is or anyone for that matter but I just found a little pool of what appears to be some type of drug on the ground where I last saw your son, Akar! Please, come back to your Manor and talk to me!"
"Dimitre?" she whispered............
Telina, new Vivec.
After Telina, Serene and Dalrus, she decided to do something....strange. She left them, and walked back up to where the Redoran Archmatser Raavin, had his office, just in time to see a....person knock on the door.
The door was opned, and Telina realized she had not much time, so she quickly activated an invisibility spell, and slipped through just as the door was closed, then she hid in a dark corner of the room, watching as the two persons talked....so Redoran was going to war with Telvanni eh, well well, that suited her perfectly.
She watched as the man, Carstein as his name was, went back out, from the office. Raavin sat down in his chair, and gave off a big sigh, he was obviously tired.
Telina allowed the spell to disperse, and lokked as Raavin, grasped for his weapon.
"Hold, I am not here to kill you, I wish only to talk...I can be a great asset to your war against Telvanni...I AM Telvanni".
OOC: the beginning of this post started before Serene got back to Raavins office, so no conflicting issues...I think...![]()
Nicoli, Vilderness.
Nicoli stood on an elevated hill, his second in command at his side. The Redoran army, was advancing under the cover of darkness, he just hoped they would not be noticed....before it was to late for the Telvanni...he smiled as he saw the possibilities of this raid would have.
He continued to march with his army.
Sel, Dagon Fel
"It's right there." Sel replied, pointing to the puddle of mead by the drunk's feet.
