A Mystery Unleashed Playground 16 Options

[Dantrag]

"Damnit, Niran!" Sel said standing up. "Nobody cares?"

"You just don't want to be cared for, Just let Celia sort out her feelings, and I'm sure we can sort all this out."

"She needs time alone, that's all."

[BobV]

Anthanes remained calm as he observed the whole situation, though getting ready to cast some Calm Person spells should the need arise.

And this is why I prefer not to dabble in emotional affairs.

[MerGirl]

Celia stood there, shocked at Niran's words. "Niran... I understand how you feel. I adored Arco, but I do not treat people the way you do. Look around at the group, Niran! The others had terrible, terrible things happened to them... Yet, I do not see them disrupting the peace or hating others because of their past pains and suffering!"

She paused. "Look at Shakur. He's a werewolf for goodness sake! Yet, I do not see him hating others. Or look at Sel. He's lost some loved ones. Yet, he does not treat others like that, either."

She gestured to herself. "And look at me. I have lost two good, kind companions, and maybe even my parents during the demon attacks on Cyroodiil." She took a deep breath. "Do I hate people for that? No. Because they are not responsible. Sel is not responsible. Serene is not responsible. You are not responsible..." She shook her head sadly. "Maybe this is not getting through to you, after all."

[gamer10]

"Don't compare to any of you!!!" he took a breath "I'm not the same as you, damnit I'm a totally different race to begin with!"


"I can't sort this all out Celia, it's part of my life that can never leave me."

He turned and started walking away from the group towards Cyrodiil.

(OOC: Sorry mergirl, didn't see you.)

[Megil Tel-Zeke]

a tear ran down megil's facce as Celia finished her retaliation to Niran's insult. He could tel out of the whole group that he had met, she was one who also cared about the relationships between others and not selfish about hers. Without realizing it he apologized to Anthanes for no trusting him, stodd up walked across the room, put his hand on Niran's shoulder and said softly,

"She's right you know, she's right" he then went upstairs to the room he had rented and shut the door.

[Dantrag]

Sel followed Niran out the door.

"What was that all about?" he asked.

[BobV]

Anthanes keeps a straight face. They seem to have a tendency for dramaticizing. And he didn't trust me? Well, I guess I never realized that.

Anthanes sat there, looking at Celia who was about the only remaining person as though wondering about her next action.

[gamer10]

Niran swivels around, and stares at Sel.

"What was what about? Are you deaf!!"

[BobV]

OOC: If someone's got a post reserved for them and he/she logs out, can you continue posting?

[Dantrag]

"No I am not." Sel replied. "Nor am I blind. If you would only listen for one second...Celia didn't mean those things, she is overwhelmed by the deaths of Falx and Arco, and the uncertainty of her parents' lives...you blame Celia for not understanding, when you were not exactly understanding yourself."

He started walking back to the eight plates.

"It's your choice whether or not you stay - make the choice you won't regret."

Sel sat back down once he got inside.

"Being a mediator is tiring." he muttered under his breath.

[MerGirl]

(OOC: Slow as ever. Well, goodnight! See you much, much later tomorrow!)

Celia felt numb and confused, her anger melting slowly. She bit her lip and tilted her head. She stayed silent for several momements. "Huh," she commented after awhile, slowly becoming her old self. She glanced at the battlemage. "What does my race have to do this? I mean, Arco was a Dunmer and Falx was an Imperial..." Her bitterness slipping away, she shrugged and smiled at the battlemage. "I'm a little tired right now, so could you please tell the others that I'm going to rest here?"

She slowly walked up the steps towards the rooms, still confused. She mumbled to herself. "What does race have to do with anything?"

(OOC: To Dantrag. Mergirl as in young mermaid. I never knew about the whole 'mer' = 'elf' until way after I registered here.)

[Dantrag]

Sel gave the barkeep enough money to cover Celia's room and a few flins for himself.

He popped open the first bottle.

"Sweet relief." he said.

[BobV]

Anthanes nodded absently. He walked over to the barkeep, paid some gold to rent a room for the rest of the day, and began tinkering with his alchemy equipment making several more of the potions that dealt fire damage, as they had proven to be of some use back then in Ald'ruhn.

Hmm...I can't just call them 'potions of fire damage' ... what about 'grenades' ? That'd work...

OOC: Logging for now. If the group goes anyway, Anthanes will come with them, prolably mumbling about someone having to keep them alive.

[gamer10]

Niran sat about 200 feet from the tavern. He thought.

What next, Celia why couldn't I say it

OOC: I probably have to go now too, goodnight.

[Dantrag]

[quote=gamer10]What next, Celia why couldn't I say it[/quote]

OOC: maybe because you were getting yelled at?

[gamer10]

OOC:Ohhh, you're very perceptive. I didn't know that.

[Kuukulgur]

Shadow had taken cover as fast as he could when the battle began. He had no weapons with him, as he had really rushed into things and was very mad about that. When the battle was about to get rough, he sneaked out and ran as fast as he could towards the Mages Guild. This time he was in such a hurry that he didn't even notice to close his eyes for the teleportation. The way to his home for the weapons and back to the Ald'Ruhn Mages Guild passed extremely fast. He didn't remember running that hard since, well, ever... And he liked it that adventuring with its pros and cons was already beginning to affect him.
When he got back to the Eight Plates, he noticed the same guy who used to be paralyzed sitting just outside the tavern.
"Cheers, what are you doing here?" he asked, surprised. "Why won't you go in? Is the battle over?"

[BobV]

Some time later, Anthanes came of his room, satisfied. Buying himself a glass of flin, he went over to Sel and joined him.

[Dantrag]

Sel noticed that Anthanes had joined him.

"So...." he began, not able to think of a topic.

[BobV]

"So, when exactly are the lot of you intending on moving onward?"

Prolably as soon as the homicidal maniac gets over getting turned down...If he still follows the group. Let's hope not.
