Demon's Uprising RP 002 - Playground Options

[Fuzzy Knight]

Vornac looked at Noldyne..
"Because it will save us, thats why. We have no chance against Morania or House Krellos without it... thought u knew this?" Vornac said before turning to Vealon waving him back to the group..

[Aki]

"Yeah, can't hurt her without it apparently," Aki said and shrugged. "Morania that is."

[Soulseeker3.0]

Vealon cursed under his breath as he came back to join the group. So when he got back, he grumpily asked Noldyne, "So if I can't go by myself, could I go with a buddy? like Vornac? or Aki?" He smiled, "or are we going to go get the Artifact, taking you know so much about it?" Vealon had an idea, now unless she thought of a good way to do something else we would either be A)going to get the stupid artifact or going to get booze.

[Sinder Velvin]

"Booze, Vealon? This isn't a really good time to go and get drunk; we should be running. But if you still want to get drunk, be my guest."

"I know, but defeating the Valpyres will be very hard. Almost impossible. I just want to make sure that you know what you're getting yourselves into. Anyway, now is not the time to talk; we must be on our way."

[Fuzzy Knight]

"Well it doesn't look anyone else is in on this..." Vornac replied to Noldyne. He looked back again the way they came from, they will run and never stop he thought...
"Lets take a boat.. or something, where we know no one is following us. Maybe we could board land half the way, something that would confuse the assassins..." Vornac said to the group, he looked at Aki.
"Do u have any contacts here Aki, anything that could help us?" Vornac asked

"Although it's dangerous, we could always go to Ebonheart and take a ship to the mainland. However, Midave's puppet Zerath, or Zareth, whatever his name is, is pretending to be the Duke of Vvardenfell. He will be watching us. But now, let us find a cave or a tomb to hide in and discuss our plans. Staying out here in the open is a bad idea..."

[Demon]

"I estimate they will send trackers out to find us in approximately 5 minutes, so we best head on now," Kalloros said calmly, yet with restrained urgency. "Tarry not, for they come soon." Before the dunmer assassin had barely finished his sentence, behind him, 5 Krellos hunters emerged.

[Aki]

"I say we take a 'strider to Khuul, then a boat to Solstheim, we can hide out there easily, i doubt Krellos has any interest in the island, or knows any of it," Aki suggested. "I, however, know some. Plus, if we can get a ship we can make our own way to the mainland or Skyrim itself."

"Maybe ask the crazy nords up there?" Allimar, the bosmeri fighter's guild appretentice asked.

"Maybe.." Aki said. "But i don't think they'll help, they're as bad as Dunmer when it comes to accepting outlanders. We might have to commandeer a vessel."

"Er...no offense to any Dunmeri in the group."

[Soulseeker3.0]

Vealon thought all of this over. then finnally "Yes I think we sould go To Solsthein like Aki said hide up there and do anything else we want to do" Vealon said, his mind still on the unhappy thoughts basically saying he was being stupid for wanting booze.

[Fuzzy Knight]

Vornac looked around again, like he didn't have much to say. He feared to take the wrong choice as they now had assassin's after them. He didn't fear death, he was more scared of Vvardenfell falling.. He looked at Aki with his red eyes, showing no signs of feelings - Vornac went by instinct now..
"Lets go to Solstheim.. Its a nice place to hide out, we have good enough time. Even as Vendal might summon Morania and tell him about this!" Vornac paused and looked around, searching for the 'strider. He started walking against the 'strider. Aki knew quite well Vornac ignored what he said about Dunmner's..

Without at the adventurer's knowing it Zerath had been summoned by Vendal. He wanted Zerath to look for the adventurers too. As the false Duke, Zerath send out romours about a group of adventurers. Saying that they had escaped from the Imperial Prison and needed to be located and if seen reported to the nearest Imperial Officer...

Vornac stopped, he turned back and looked the group.. Before going up to Aki...
"Ehm... If I haven't lost totaly hang of this Aki, u didn't tell us how u were captured?" Vornac said, sounding confused..

[Sinder Velvin]

[Best to slightly change the chronological order of things.]

While the adventurers were talking, Kalloros said the following: "I estimate they will send trackers out to find us in approximately 5 minutes, so we best head on now. Tarry not, for they come soon."

That is when a House Krellos scouting party appeared behind the adventurers.

"Just scouts. Take out your weapons, friends!" Noldyne yelled.

[Aki]

Wayn struck first, leaping at the enemy, seemingly unarmed. The elderly Redguard closed in on one Krellos member with great speed and agility for his age, and thrust his palm into the man's face, stopping but a centimeter from his face, while his othe rhand grappled the scout's sword arm, preventing the blade from coming down on him.

There was a sharp snap-hiss, and both the faces of Wayn and the Krellos scout were lit with a soft blue light. A glowing blue shaft of light materialized from Wayn's palm, and extended through the Krellos' head and out the the other side, the shaft ending in a tip.

Wayn drew his hand back ,the mystical blade coming with him, and he held it like a sword. The Krellos scout dropped to the group like a sack of wet potatoes, blood gripping from the hole in his forehead. Dead.

"And that folks, is why leaving Morrowind for a while to become a Sword Singer pays off," Wayn said.

"Showoff," Aki said, drawing his own sword.

[Fuzzy Knight]

Vornac took up his Ebony Longsword. He looked quite calm as he took his defending position as two House Krellos Scout's charged at him, they went both for the flanks.. Vornac tumbled under the first slash before setting his blade deep into the scout's back, he fell right on the ground - but not dead. The second jogged around Vornac before setting in a attack, he charged right on. Vornac walked back while slashing at the scout, he got a hit cutting of the scout's arm before slashing up his chest.. The blood spilled out in Vornac face, he turned against one that charged of at Vealon...

"Look out!" Vornac yelled to Vealon, Vealon hadn't his weapon ready so he dodged the blow by leaping to the side before sending of a dagger flying into the neck of the scout...

[Soulseeker3.0]

Vealon was at a complete loss at what happened, all of a sudden he heard Vornac yell at him and he jumped and dipatched a flying dagger into the scout's neck, when he finished his roll he grabbed his bow and shot out two arrows at the the scout's back and it fell to the ground. Vealon ran qver to Vornac with his daggers in hand, and He says, "thanks back there, I owe you one" as they start to approch the remaining scouts...

***p.s. are the scout's human, or what??***

Sinder Velvin's Comment: Nope, they're Dark Elves.

[Fuzzy Knight]

Two of the four Scout's charged against Vealon and Vornac, the first one leapt in with his short sword and dagger. Vornac blocked his first strike with his blade, before hitting him in the face with his left hand. Vornac swinged his sword around in his hand waiting for the scout to attack, the scout went in, a few feet from Vornac he threw his dagger straight at Vornac, Vornac deflected it easily of his blade before going in hard, it only came a flash from Vornac's gleaming blade and a head rolling down the street..

Vealon had no problem dodging the Scout's blow before poking the Scout in the eye with a arrow. He threw himself back holding at his face, he gave Vealon room to shoot of two arrows right into his chest.. He fell straight to the ground.. The two other's charged against Wayn and Aki..

(OOC: I know a very realistic way how Channler and Davion can find us. As I said in my post, the false Duke has sent out rumours of our party as outlaws.. And Channler and Davion knows its us after the discription and find out we were last seen in Maar Gan... Woo I'm smart )

[Aki]

Aki smirked. "Fool," he said to his opponent, before stepping calmly to the side of his foe's strike. Aki swung his Scimitar, stepping to the side of the Dunmer. The mer collapsed, bleeding profusely from the backs of his knees, both hamstrings cut. Rendering his legs all but useless. A simple downward thrust finished the scout off, the blade driving through his heart.

Wayn, however, never had to hit his target. The scout was strike by several arrows fired by the Bosmeri fighter's guild apprentice, all hitting in the arms or the legs, and the female Redguard used her weapons, a mace, to make a mush out of the mer's face.

"She killed 'im, i don't have to eat im, whoo!" The Bosmer exclaimed.

[Soulseeker3.0]

Vealon was panting along with the rest of the group so He passed around a few restor fatique potions and a couple restore health potions.Then when everyone "had there fill" Vealon spoke up, " As we just found out big bad Mr. Ugly knows we're gone and wants to do something about it. So now that we are through fighting and are restored, lets all get on the silt strider and go to kuul. I'll pay, my proffesion pays well, if you know what I mean."

[Channler]

They were standing there both by the window, staring out into the placid blue waters of the (?) Inner Sea.

"Davion? Do you think the others forgot about us?" Channler asked staring into the comforting nothingness.

"Possibly, but perhaps we will not know. After our failed attempted on the island we were so split up.. I fear for our situation." Davion replied monotone.

"You say that as though they have just givin' up!" Channler hissed unable to think of such an idea, "Do you not care for the people of Vvardenfell's fate? We needn't not stay here, the Valpyres could be attacking anywhere!" He said with earnest.

Channler turned and walked to the door, and was stopped by a few words that passed from Davion's mouth,

"Channler.. I am dieing, this body of mine is slowly fading into oblivion. I cannot carry on much longer, all my hopes, dreams, aspirations are fading. I haven't the will to go on and fight a fight that I do not have to participate in." An uncomfortable silence fills the now dreary room. "Every second I exist, I feel more of me leaving yearning (SP) for a place to rest and end the torment forever. But alas I also have a side of me that wishes to continue and fight the good fight, but I lack the strength to do so...

Davion stepped towards Channler, his feet felt heavy, almost as though they had decided to seize being part of this old warrior. He put his hands on Channler's shoulder's,

"You mu-ss-t.." Suddenly Davion stood there gasping for breath. His body began to have convulsions. Channler grasped Davion's shaking body to keep it from droping to the floor.

"Davion! Davion!" Channler screamed as he laid the shaking body on the soft bed. Davion's body started resuming its normal functions, but his life signs were fading, "Hang in there buddy.." Channler whispered as he was trying to perform every single last life saving spell from hearth heal to using his hands and pounding on his chest. Nothing would work, Davion would die..

Channler had a flashback

"Davion? You said your body is fading away, or something like that right? Well what exactly am I supposed to do to help you here? I know there has to be a way to rid this.. thing from you.."

"I . . I don't know. What I do know is every time i use my energy attacks it drains my life away incredibly fast."

"I was thinking, when I die, soul trap me. When my body disappears I cant get back control of it because it will no longer exist, so I was thinking when I’m dead and you have my soul, put my soul in your body as well. You know, combine our spirits kinda? Make one ultimate fighter"

“Soul trap…” Channler muttered to himself, realizing that he bought a soul gem of very odd quality’s for this occasion. It pained him when he bought it.. And now it pained him when he needed to use it in this most desperate hour.

*His hands were shaking as he caressed the gem in his scarred hands, praying that Davion just might come through without it, but when it proved that Davion was near the point of no return Channler decided that there was not another choice. Saying the words that he forced himself to remember a bright light appeared from the gem. The light was so bright it forced him to turn his head and shield his eyes. The light seemed to be of an odd property for it “entered” everything. It found its way into nooks and cranny’s that a normal torch couldn’t even attempt to fill. Then it was over.

Channler stood over his friends limp body, so much friendship in such a little time, and yet not a tear could come to him. He solemnly walked out of the room and shut the door as if someone was sleeping. Oddly enough there was no one to witness the events that had just happened, which was in good fortune for Channler. He took his few belongings, many of which that had been given to him by Davion, and walked down the stairs to the inn keeper.

“Good sir? When you go up stairs you will find the body of my friend.. Take this, “Channler handed the inn keeper a large pouch of coins, “Give him a funeral worthy of a great being, for he saw me through life, and I saw him through death..” The inn keeper was to pre-occupied with the cash to worry about the fact that there was a dead body in his inn, it was disgusting.

As Channler turned to walk out the door a single tear ran down his face.




(*) Being that Davion has come back from the dead wouldn't soul trapping work on him?

[Fuzzy Knight]

The Silt Strider touched down in Khuul later that day, didn't really take much time. Vornac walked out and down to Khuul...
"What should we do now again? Go to Solstheim!?" he asked

[Aki]

"Yep," Aki said, he lead the group through the shady town, towards the rickety looking docks. At the docks were two boats, and two boat masters. The one they wanted was the Khajiiti boatmaster. "Last boat to Solstheim, till the next one, har har har har..." the Khajiit said. Aki smiled and paid the Khajiit for passage of all those in the group. Aki hopped onto the boat, followed by Wayn, and the two Fighter's guild apprentices.
