Issac

He gazed at his love and gave Satyana the best smile he could muster. "Don't worry about me, 'Tyana, I'm all right."

Issac's already faint smile deminished slightly. "Just wish Ian didn't need to leave, but he has to find help."

Sighing heavily he continued. "You're presence would be much apprieciated; let's watch each other's backs, my love."

Satyana

She nodded, not really understanding exactly why Ian had to leave.

I´ll stay behind him, guarding his back....use my powers if I have to.....oh Azura please watch over Issac and Rann...

Ian, on his own.....

As the door to ruined Leyawiin shrank behind the glass-clad figure, the Valus mountains grew slightly in the distance, beyond Blackwood. Ian walked with his mind closed to the outer world, he recalled all of his early life, which was within the sacred walls of the dojo.

In the Valus Mountains, the same region the Silhouete stations his forces..... The place of my upbringing....... He felt an oddly reverant tone gather in his chest. It is as much as a home as the sensei and apprentices were family.

In his hollow state of mind Ian was near impossible to detection, his mind was empty and his body made left no signs..... Nothing would stop his journey to his place of childhood......

The Wandering Sage, The Great Forest

The wind blew through the trees of the forest..... and through the many mages who milled around the drop-off point. The sage sat cross-legged, meditating, and remianed silent for hours. Messagers had been sent to each city (exept for leyawiin and Bravil), but they had yet to return.......

The majority of nearby trees were filled with battlemages keeping watch on the area around the camp. The other residents were alchemists, scholars, and other guild mages of varying rank. All were working on tents or going about their many duties, waiting for word to come from the other guild halls........

The woman couldn't help but wonder if they were the only ones left to fight back........

Flint Ironwood, Leyawiin.

Flint had been in deep thought for a while. He now stepped forward, willing to present his plan.
,,Ok, guys. I think we need to get to the Imperial city. That's probably were all forces will meet. In the meantime, I want to go on a solo investigation in the east. Seeing as how I'm probably among the fastest travelers here, I should be able to get in and out fast and safely. Not to mention that I learned a few things about sneaking in my previous profession. Ask Rahvin when you run into him. He knows all about me." The Breton waited for a response.
,,So, no objections? I'll meet up in the Imperial city again."

Green-Root, wherever the Silhouette is now.

Green-Root had caught up with his shadowscales. Now they kneeled before the Silhouette.
,,The deed is done, Cyrodiil's navy is no more." Green-Root reported before retreating to the nearest campfire. When he was gone, one of the Shadowscales came closer.
,,Master, the emerald scale allowed a woman, a defenseless woman to escape. She had shown to be capable of opposing your plans, yet he still let her get away when we had our spears at her throat. Is it wise to trust someone like him?"



(And so, Green-Root's position with the Sil is brought into danger)

Issac

Hearing Flint's plan, Issac was inclined to agree with going to the Imperial City first. We might actually find someone or something to save this time......

But he felt he should tell Flint about Ian's mission to the east. "I think it would be a good idea to go back to the Imperial City, at least for now......" Issac a breath, what he was about to say could be considered secret knowledge.

"Ian already left for the Valus Mountains, it is for the best that no one follows him. The place he is searching for doesn't exist...." He added quietly. "....officially." "I only know it is there, not the exact nature of the place, or where it's located."

He felt somewhat cornered now, I could have just handed information to someone untrustworthy..... He trusted Satyana and Rann, perhaps Flogir, Johnathan, and Dalrus as well, but he knew little about Flint or the two Altmer. The one who we think wants to minipulate us.....

OOC: figured I waited on shogun long enough

oh, and where were Rahvin, Brianna, and Sadril last?

Rann

Rann heard Satyana refer to Isaac as 'my love', and raised an eyebrow. He was able to figure out what it was he had missed, but not how he had missed it.

She moves too fast for me to keep up.

He spoke to Altair one last time before ending the brief conversation. "Looks like I'm pulled away. Maybe we'll meet again."

Rann figured that if the mer was serious, he would have some sort of army to back him up, and some sort of fame. A person like that wouldn't be hard to find again. And if he wasn't serious, then Rann had lost nothing.

"You realize that now I have to torture the information out of you, right?" he asked Isaac light-heartedly.

Issac

Issac gave a sheepish grin. "Uh yeah, I guess you will now..... But that is all I know, aside from the fact that Ian grew up in that place." The last part was whispered so that the Altmer, Altair, wouldn't hear it, hopefully.

"All I can tell you is that it's a training ground, for what and why, well that might be for another time." he wondered if Rann knew about what was going on between his sister and him. I suppose he could have heard us.......

Issac wondered what Rann thought of him. I have faith in him, he is trustworthy; if not occasionally rash....... He's not exactly the person I'd normally want behind me........ He gave a brief glance at Satyana. But I guess he's family now, I believe I can depend on him......

"It's good to see you might not be a revolutionary fanatic after all." Issac whispered playfully. "I'm not a patriot, but all forms of government, no matter how picture-perfect, are capable of coruption. I've seen my fill of it, but there will always be more." He was partially relieved that Rann had stepped back from this revolutionary's plot. Thank Mephala for that; I suppose we're all here together now, blood or not.

Issac remembered why they were having this discussion in the first place. But Ian, my father, is gone for now; still I've worked without him before. He hoped Rann could be as good a ally as he hoped. It would be a good idea get to know Rann better......

Flint Ironwood, thinking.

,,So he's already gone there? We don't know if he'll come back, do we? Ok, let's go for the Imperial city then. If this Moldaire thingy is serious about taking over the Empire, it needs to conquer that place, even if it's just for symbolic reasons. I'm still going to the Valus mountains. I'm not looking for Ian, I'm looking for a big army of evil people. That should be easier to find than one man and a training place kept hidden for centuries. Don't worry about Ian's secret. He'll know how to keep it secret."

Flint walked to the door and looked outside.
,,If you need anything done, do it now. I want to be back on the road as soon as possible. In the meantime, I'm going to retrieve my horse."

Several minutes later, he returned with his black horse.
,,Could you take care of him? I wouldn't feel good about leaving him behind in a place like this."

Issac

"Good." He replied to Flint. "Yes, the Silhouete might as well take the Imperial City, threat or not."

"Even if the city has been evacuated there will be much for an army of bandits, berzerkers, and general brigands to plunder....." Issac shook a little as he said that. I love the Imperial City and the Empire, they've held the continent together for centuries..... I can't stand it all crashing down now.......

When Flint returned with his horse, he hesitated to accept it. I never needed a horse, but it would probably be for the best that we save our energy for when it's needed..... "Yes, I'll take care of him, Flint."

Flint Ironwood, leaving.

Flint nodded.
,,Thanks. Well, till next time." After this simple goodbye, he gathered his powers and cast the spell. Within moments, Flint was nothing more but a tiny shadow moving towards the horizon.

Flogir

Flogir was a little disappointed that Flint and Ian had to leave. Sure, they weren't the most optomistic of people, but their presence left a sense of safety. That, and he didn't like to see the group break apart. Deep down he knew that their reasoning for leaving were appropriate, and he accepted it.

He began to gather up his things and headed for the Inn door. "Well, I see no point in sticking around here now," he stated flatly then turned to Arco and his companion, "I take it you're joining us?"

OOC: ha! great, Brianna, Sad and Rahvin are moving towards .....somewhere I gather...maybe we should continue their conversation?

Satyana, beginning to almost like the situation

She liked that Rann and Issac were talking, it made it easier all the way. She had no intentions of giving up Issac and she still was very concerned about >Rann...of course! In her mind she prepared to be able to use all magic she knew of...if necessary. She hated voilence and death as much as Serene did, but wouldn´t hesitate to use it if her beloved ones were in danger....

As usual she stuck with them without interfering.....as the nice well brought up girl she was....


I want you to know I´m here watching over both of you

Ian, hiking

The fallen tree was covered with mushrooms and other plants, but Ian ignored the possible poisons. He hauled himself over the obstacle, and found himself not twenty meters from the base of the Valus Mountains.

He let out a breath. Almost there, it's getting harder to do this when you get older... Ian began trudging through the snow. ......really wish that I had my cloak; glass might save your life, but it does nothing to stop the cold....... and I would want to cover the BLACK armor under a GREY cloak in WHITE snow.

Issac, with Rann and Satyana

As Flint dissappeared, Issac took the horse's reins and patted it on the neck. Though he apprieciated the fact that he didn't have to run, he didn't like to ride as much as he enjoyed running. I can run as fast as this beast, and I can outlive it too. But its role will be short anyway, only a few days of this before Flint or Ian get back......

"So Rann," he began. "How did you grow up?" Issac wanted Satyana to join the conversation. We could all get to know each other.....

Satyana, listening

She waited for Rann´s answer, she was as curious as Issac of her brother´s former life....if Issac wanted she´d tell about her background as well....in more detail..

Arezt ‘Arco’ Colerion
Leyawiin

"Seems you could need some backup, so yes - we'll join." Arco replied to Flint before he turned towards Serene. "Ready?"

Serene, with Arco

"Why of course I am" she tried to speak in a different accent so Satyana shouldn´t recognise her

Issac, supecting

Noticing that the two newcomers were joining the group, Issac shrugged. So now we have two replacements for the two that just left...... that was fast, He mused.

Is that woman trying to change her accent? Because that didn't sound the Cyrodilic that she was speaking earlier, and that hardly sounded like any tongue I've ever heard....... The prospect amused him, but it made him a little suspicous. Why would someone try and talk differently, because they have something to hide.....

It made sense, normally Issac would let a stranger keep their silence, but these werent normal circumstances. First she has Satyana's eyes, second she tries, if not badly, to talk in an accent that I've never heard in all of Tamriel........

Issac put the pieces together until he had a good idea what was going on. There must be something between this woman and 'Tyana, maybe Rann too because he's her sister. So, I intend to find out what this is about....... but not now, later.

Adriana aka Serene

She grimaced, apparently she´d made Issac suspicious.....Damn it I never was good at High Rock accent

So she decided to reveal herself to him...before he said something to Satyana


"Hey, Mister" she said to Issac, "Yes you!, could I have a word in private with you please?"

Issac

The woman called him over, and though it was unexpected, Issac nodded. He strode over to her, I might as well press the charges....

"You have the same eyes as Satyana and you tried to change your accent, that only helped raise my suspicions." He had a guess on who this woman was, she's obviously related...... and older; add to this that Satyana said her grandmother raised her........ what was her name?

Then the name came to him, and Issac decided to push forward. "Is your name Serene?" He furrowed his brows and waited patiently for an answer.

Adriana aka Serene

"Ssshhh", she hissed, "Not so loud please!, yes I´m Serene but it´s safer for Satyana..and Rann not to know I´m here"

"My name is Adriana Moranis" she said in a normal tone, "How may I be of assistance to you?" She blinked at Issac

"You be nice to my granddaughter, right?" she whispered in his ear with a smile, " I kinda like you mister"
