The last one.

OOC : Thanks for making us a new one, Alex The last post is below, because I need that question answered lol.

Sel ignored his duel as utter chaos ensued - niether side wanted to honor his trial. It seemed the empire would always follow him.

He drew his sword and made his way to Celia - he wouldn't let her be hurt in all this.

OC: could someone summarize carlos' post? I didn't really get what happened, I don't know if it's because I'm stupid, or if he just didn't use puncuation or somehting :shrug:

Did he say that they were taking me whether the guard won or not?

What tripped off Megil's release of sylphs?

Talking aloud was starting to become very common place in Falx's time by himself. After walking from the mountains to some city by the sea he hadn't many friends to speak to, save himself. Curousity overtook him for a moment, and he started to stand up and head out the door way but caught himself,

"Ah, he's a good man, I'm sure he doesn't need my company" Falx said, gesturing mentally towards Arcyakt

Sitting back down on his shaky hammock Falx thought of the rebels.. "How dare they do such a thing, the empire gives them the freedom that every man deserves and yet they slaughter their protectors unmercifully. Ha, when I get ahold of them.."

Falx's caught a glint of shiny metal in the ruksack of the mans bunk across from him. Slowly and ever cautiously Falx snuck towards the bag to get a closer look, he was all alone in the bunk area. Reaching into the sack he felt a smooth, cool surface, the touch delighted his fingers as the pranced around it, feeling its curves and edges.

Something snapped in Falx's head, and all thoughts of nobility and justice fled from his mind. Suddenly the gauntlets gleamed with such a light that Falx couldn't resist it anymore and snatched up the valuable property, rushing it to his own sack.

Thumping resounded in the wooden hallways, someone was coming down! Falx's nerves were steely, and wouldn't be broken down by and others determination. The door to the room creaked open and a large shirtless Nord with a long red beard stepped in. The Nord passed a glance at Falx, and Falx continued to stare at him as he walked to his bed, which just happened to be were the gauntlets came from.

After throwing the insides of the bag out the big Nord's face grew bright red as he turned to confront Falx, "Give them back you litle thief and I'll only break your fingers off!" His voice was loud and deep, but he had a bit of a slur in his voice. So either he was drunk, or dumb. Whichever didn't matter, for he was charging straight at Falx.

Falx lepted off the side of the excuted a roll right to the left of the angry Nord, "Calm down good sir! Why would I steal your stuff, obviously I hadn't a use for it" It seems that the Nord took the comment as a taunt and decided to swing down at Falx, smashing into his right shoulder blade.

"Damn you!" Falx cursed as he held shoulder, his mind went into more of a mindless state, "Morrowind law says that if someone starts a fight, the other person can defend themselves by any means!" Falx glared at the Nord, his face forming an evil grin. He readied his sword and held for another charge.

The Nord was drunk for not even a dumb being would charge right into the sharpened tip of a sword. Blood spit out from his back as the sword peirced through and potruded itself from the back of the Nords neck. Falx breathed heavily as he pushed the heavy man off his sword.

"Stupid fool!" Falx spat on the Nord's lifeless corpse, "You've got blood all over me!" One single thrust ended the life of another in a quicksecond, yet Falx felt no remorse. Neither did he feel it while he dumped the carcass into the churning depths of the inner sea, and still true as he cleaned up the blood splashed along the floor boards.

It didn't penetrate the outer shell the was forming around Falx, already he was changing, and changing for the worst...
