A Mystery Unleashed - Playground 28 Options

[Dantrag]

"We can buy passage to Vvardenfell on a freighter or something." Arcyakt said.

"There is a port city near here, let's see what we can find." With that, he lead Falx out of the inn.

[gamer10]

Niran brought the two pieces of his sword and dropped them by Jonacin's feet.

"These might be of some use to you," Niran said angrily before walking off.

You bastarde, that sword was precious to me . . . the only thing I had left to live for . . .wait . . .

Niran glanced at Celia before walking farther off and sitting. Then he turned his gaze towards her. . .

Now there is only one that I hold dear. . .even if she doesn't think highly of me . . .

(OOC: There is wood around this area, right?)

Celia giggled at Sel's reaction to flin. "Tee hee, silly Dunmer and their drinks!"
Turning, she started running towards the wooded area. "I'll get the fire-wood!" She picked up her skirts as she ran. She muttered, "I hope I do not get splinters, oh, how I hate those!"

Niran stood up.

"I'll help," Niran said running to catch up with Celia "That is, if you don't mind."

Wouldn't want you running off by yourself into a forest. . .

Celia nodded. "I do not mind." She grinned as she picked up some large wood pieces and plopped them onto Niran's hands. "A strong man like you can pick up much more than a frail girl like me, tee hee!"

Niran positioned the wood he gave her properly in his arms, so as not to drop them.

His face reddened slightly when she joked, and he looked away for a few seconds.

"Uh . .right. . .whatever."

If you're so frail, why do you carry around a hammer?

Niran grinned, he hadn't really seen Celia do much battling. He found the thought of her bashing monsters with a hammer very amusing.

"Celia after all this . .you know . .whatever the group is doing, do you plan on returning to Cyrodiil?"

The street was full of the various sort all milling about in their own directions. Falx turned to Arcyakt, "So these rebels, what exactly are their crimes? Surely they must have done severe harm to the empire if ordered to be slain."

[Dantrag]

Mage

Arcyakt sighed, "One of them has murdered quite a bit of legion soldiers - the others have helped an uprising in Cyrodiil against the Emperor." He answered.

As they entered the city, Arcyakt pointed to the docks. "That ship will probably get us there, let's speak with the captain."

[Fuzzy Knight]

Arneth stood a little back in the fight, he had slashed down those who came near him. As it all was over he stood there and watched the bodies on the shore...
"Anyway... Do you have any idea what Arcyakt is going to unleash here in Vvardenfell" Arneth asked the group with curious eyes....

[Wolfie]

Niran brought the two pieces of his sword and dropped them by Jonacin's feet.

"These might be of some use to you," Niran said angrily before walking off.

Yeah, because a broken sword is really useful
Jonacin ignored the broken sword at his feet and went over to the barrels brought to shore by the sylphs. they contained provisions enough to last at least a week, but only if used sparingly

(OOC: Niran was using a little something we call "sarcasm", though it didn't show because he was angry. )

[Wolfie]

OOC: I know he was, and Jonacin was also using that little thing called sarcasm

[Dantrag]

Mage

Arcyakt stepped onto the ship after negotiating price with the captain.

He smiled to himself when he thought of how he had tricked Falx -without changing shape or name, only creating a sword.

He showed Falx to his bunk and gave the excuse that he was going on deck to get some air.

He went back to his castle.

"Osano." he said upon seeing the dark elf. "Would you be so kind as to join our voyage? just remember - we are members of the legion and are exterminating rebels. Falx's name is now Alton. If you get confused, just send me a question telepathically."

"Ready?"

[ShogunSniper]

Osano was a bit disoriented at the sudden briefing he had just recieved from Arcyakt. "Er, sure I'm ready," he said stepping through the mirror that lead to the ship. So are we going to kill them? Do you think that Falx may remember his friends?

[Megil Tel-Zeke]

Megil walked over to Jonacin, his weariness beginning to die off.

"So what all do we have."

[MerGirl]

"Celia after all this . .you know . .whatever the group is doing, do you plan on returning to Cyrodiil?"

Celia nodded, her face serious. "Of course! That is my home and where most of my family live." She sighed, her face sorrow as a wave of homesickness hit her. "I just hope they are all allright from that demonic invasion. And, I really do miss home..."

She glanced at Niran, curious. "If we ever rid of that bounty on your head, what do you plan to do after our quest-affair?"

"I don't really know," Niran said "I guess I'll just go home and see what happens from there. Though I doubt my home hasn't been sold. " Niran sighed.

"I don't really have any plans . . . and the Imperial legion won't get over my crimes easily." He looked down "So, nothing. Unless . ." Niran stopped himself "Nevermind."

"Never mind what?" She raised an eyebrow.

She patted his shoulder. "Do not worry. We will find a way to pay your bounty..." She grinned. "Well, they have not found you yet, so there is still hope..."

She continue piling a few more wood pieces onto Niran's ever-growing bundle. By now, the bundle was covering his face slightly. "I think that is good enough?"

[gamer10]

Now it was Niran's turn to raise an eyebrow, he hadn't noticed the wood piling up when they were talking.

"Uh, yeah. That looks about right." Then he turned around and started back to the little camp.

[Channler]

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...
