A Mystery Unleashed - Playground 4 Options

Shakur drank three glasses of the brandy. "Wow, a buzz! That's the first one in like twelve years". Shakur finished his meat. "You know, after being on the road for so long, eating all kinds of things, I would've paid a thousand gold to eat crab meat, but after eating that meat, I'm in a state of nirvana" joked Shakur.

OOC: I'm going now, I might be on later.

Sel ran up the steps after Celia and grabbed her, turning her around to facee him.

"And what are you doing?" he asked her. "They rented a room. And you can't tell me you haven't noticed the looks they've been giving each other while we've travelled. So just sit right back down and leave them be." Sel said. "Come on, you know you want more than bread and water." he teased.

[Red]

Shakur looked at Sel and Celia. "Celia, you don't want to go in there. Sel, stop pushing alchohol" said Shakur, sounding almost father-like.
"Everybody has someone hoping they live through these hellish events. Suprisingly, I'm part of that group". Shakur was starting to lighten up, getting ready to tell stories of his life.

"What? I'm not pushing alchohol! It's a friendly joke." Sel protested. "So sit, Celia, and have a sip." He said while handing her the bottle of matze. "Just leave some for me."

[Red]

"Hmm, are you sure you don't want to take a few bottles and stand on the sidewalk for a while?" Shakur said jokingly. "Or how about some skooma?".

[Dantrag]

"Stop acting like an old person and have a little fun." Sel joked back.

[MerGirl]

Celia giggled. "Aw, but I want to ruin their fun..." She smiled, but pushed away the bottle of matze, quietly refusing it. "I survived long enough without that in my entire life."

She smiled and turned to Shakur. "Hey, got any stories, interesting experiences in your life? I'm bored, and I'm itching to stumble into the bedrooms upstairs..." She giggled again and sipped her water.

Falx let the others go on ahead to do what they wished, after all, how can they rest when there are still refugees left, and how in the world is that bar opened?

He let all the confusing and contridicting thoughts flow out of his mind. His horse was trailing it's master, Falx thought to himself, "Ha, so far your the last of my friends, closer then any family I can remeber, and the last one I'd want to loose"

Falx turned and looked at Akatosh, "One day, me and you will go someplace far away and see many different spectacles. One day..." Falx was slowly aging. At the age of 5 he was sent to the Imperial Academy of Greater Learning, the best in the lands, and for 13 years he trained, and he trained, for his emperor. After his succesful graduation Falx went on campains with many great generals, after all, it was only years after the unkown hero closed shut the gates of oblivion. At least 16 years later, he had been fighting still, rare in many cases. Falx's body was still strong, but his mind was told him to quit.

"Lets go buddy" He rubbed the horse's mane.

Sel was serious when he said he wasn't going to get drunk. He put down what was left of the matze and turned to face Celia.

"Itching to get into other peoples' business?" Sel asked in a mock-accusatory tone. "I never would have guessed that you were the nosy type."

Sel then changed the subject. "I do agree with you on one thing Celia - A nice tale would be good right now." he said turning to face Shakur.

[MerGirl]

"Oh, blah! I'm not nosy! I'm just... curious, m'kay..." She giggled and glanced at the matze. "You're not going drunk? You little... Trying to sneak out of a bet!" She stuck out her tongue at Sel, then turned to the Redguard. "Tell us a story, mister Redguard! Pweeese?"

[Dantrag]

Sel muttered under his breath, "Pssh, curious, that's it."

He then looked to Shakur, expecting him to begin his story.

[Red]

OOC: sorry for not logging off, you all thought I was going to post.

IC: "Hmmm, well, most of my stories involve deep meditation and patience, which isn't all that interesting. Wait, how about the time I learned I was still being hunted by the dark brotherhood? Well, I was hunting our would be asassin, I was 25 at the time. I had tracked a woman down in an ashlander camp who was aperantly the asassin's ex-wife. She had been cheated on by the asassin, so she was eager to tell me where he was. He was a regular at R'avirr's shop in Balmora. The asassin had learned of her "treason" against him, and had her killed. I was friends with the ashlanders at the time, and lead an attack on a known Dark Brotherhood hide out. I came to R'avirr's shop where he and an asassin attacked me. I stabbed R'avirr in the face with my gauntlet and used his war hammer to knock out the asassin. When he came to, he said I was "doomed to a higher fate" and that "the N'wah will be drove away from all of Nirn". Turns out someone belived I was part of a bigger picture, and wanted everyone connected to me murdered. But what disturbes me is the details he knew of my life, and that I will "lead the S'wit into evil things" and that is why I must die. After I killed him, I married my love in secret so the brotherhood wouldn't kill her. "

[Dantrag]

"What happened to her?" Sel asked. He knew it might bring back too many painful memories for Shakur, but his curiousity got the best of him.

[Red]

"What do you mean what happened to her? She's living happily in balmora getting ready to move to here. Do I come off as a sad guy or something?"

[Dantrag]

Sel smiled. "Do you want the truth, or a horrible save?"

He looked at Celia. "I may need my sword back right now..."

[Red]

"I'll take the truth, very direct guy that way" Shakur laughed.

(OOC: You really got this thread running Minque, I take my eyes away and its a new 100 posts... Took me sometime)

Arco didn't have a chance to react before Shakur, Sel and Celia had taken of after Jonacin and Serene soon followed by Falx... Arco started to walk after them slowly taking his hand over his left eye, the pain was still there and his vision was still blurry. Arco sat down on the road side in the fresh grass, that was untouched by the flames from the demons. 'Maybe I should leave them alone now, let them continue on their journey' Arco thought...

He once again remembered his friends, the scars of their deaths had never left Arco. He wasn't sure if he would ever make that connection to anyway again, he leaned back looking into the air. He was curious to see where their "friendship" could go, but he had been alone for so many years. 'Maybe it was never my destiny to make friends' Arco thought, but denied. He rubbed his face gently before getting up, he started walking against the where the others had gone. He could see the Inn, he walked slowly up to the little window near the door, looking in. Arco stepped back before he satt down on a bench outside taking up his weapons started to clean them... 'It's maybe time for me to leave...' he thought as he cleaned the blade gently...

[Dantrag]

OOC: Fuzzy, is your avatar from NWN?

Sel scratched his head. "Well the truth is, Shakur...you being so quiet and reserved all the time makes you seem sad. Seirously. It does." In the awkward silence that followed, Sel finally said, "Okaaaay, I'm getting more drink."

[minque]

Serene woke up, she didn´t know what made her wak up, maybe some noise outside...yes there was a sort of noise and it came from outside. She sneaked out of bed not waking Jonacin up, he slept so good and he surely needed all the sleep he could get.

As she carefully opened the window, it was on the same side as the door on the ground floor, and then leaned out she saw a man sitting outside on the bench near the door.It was something familiar about him........Then she realised..it was Arco!!

"Psst Arco" she whispered, " we´re up here, Jonacin and me, where have you been? and how are you"

"Do you need any help?"

[MerGirl]

"Aw, poor mister Reguard (Shakur)! You sound sad... too serious! You need to smile more!" Celia pinched the Redguard's cheeks.

She looked up towards the stairs leading to the bedrooms. "I'm tired of waiting, they should be up by now!" She ran upstairs and gleefully knocked on every door, hoping to find the right one. "Come on, wake up, sillies!"
