Electrical energy crackles along the surface. The power makes your hair stand on end! You can try to 'break' or 'struggle' free. <The Alliance> Ghost of Baldrick: run *** That tip comes a bit late. Electricity from the globe sends out tendrils along the ground. You struggle in vain, but the energy inside the globe keeps you from being able to move freely. <The Alliance> Norima: Mortarth, OUT THERE. *** He is in another globe already, Norima. *** Some further struggling on my side, futile it was, I may add. <The Alliance> Clang: Sarpadian was there?

Maxell sings in xyllic: Disarming and stealing are two quite different things, unless you want me to keep it of course. Maxell snickers. You say in xyllic: Do whatever your false god demands of you. The robed and hooded human looks at you. The storm around the robed and hooded human vanishes. <Priests of Rokoon> Yenul: Calair told me a message from Mortarth for the Clerics. <Priests of Rokoon> Yenul: Mortarth's words were: Hold on Neko *** Hey, I plan nothing else, though I know my fate is sealed.

You say to the robed and hooded human in xyllic: I am not the judge, just his sheriff <The Alliance> Norima: Should I try? You say to the robed and hooded human in xyllic: It is not upon me to decide that. Mortarth looks at Maxell. You say in xyllic: But as any decent dwarf, I will accuse you of murdering our townguards The robed and hooded human says in xyllic: What townguards? Mortarth sings in xyllic: I will withness that You nod to Mortarth. The robed and hooded human laughs. Maxell sings in xyllic: What townguards? Maxell chuckles. <The Alliance> Norima: Baldrick, should I try to take it? The robed and hooded human says in xyllic: We didn't even scrach your guards *** As it later showed, he was right. You say in xyllic: The guards of Dalzungund. The robed and hooded human says in xyllic: But nice that you got a witness for that, really The robed and hooded human slowly shakes his head.

You lookup to the male dwarf with a snake-eagle mask. Male dwarf with a snake-eagle mask. He is normal and fat for a dwarf. He looks pleasant. He is in good shape. He is extremely alert.

Maxell scratches his head. Maxell sings in xyllic: Thought you were just an emerald guard? Mortarth asks Maxell in xyllic: lice You say in xyllic: So we only have a human that is afraid.

Maxell looks for wings and fails to find any. <The Alliance> Baldrick: They were globed <The Alliance> Baldrick: Probably getting sacced *** Always such a grim view of the future, Baldrick, but ok, I share it this *** time. You emote: Stonebeard chants a prayer to Rokoon and visibly relaxes in her bonds. Maxell chuckles. With a low chant to his deity Maxell traces a triangle into the air with his jade blue dagger and focusses your body. You feel that you successfully resisted Maxell. *** YEAH, whatever prayer that was. I liked to resist ! Maxell shrugs. Sarp carefully folds up his sleeve while he speaks some words in a language that does not seem to be made for his tongue. He closes his fist tightly and you see the blood pulse in his veins. With a swift cut of his dagger he opens a long gash in his wrist. Sarp's wounds start to bleed. Maxell stretches his legs and stands up gracefully. As you watch in horror, the deep gash slowly starts to fill with red drops of ruby-like intensity. Little droplets meld into a trickle that seems to caress the skin as it yields to the pull of gravity. The red perfect globes tumble through the air towards the ground, spinning ever so slowly and breaking the light in a myriad of sparkles during their eerie dance. While you watch in dreamlike fascination, the wound starts to close again when the first drop of blood splatters on the floor. The earth itself seems to recoil from the contact in fear and you hear a slight hissing sound. Moments later, though, the atmosphere in the room changes. A little puddle of blood has formed on the ground and you feel more than you see, how the earth now greedily consumes the nourishment it has been given. Within moments all the liquid has seeped into little cracks that you did not notice existed before and the ground emanates a healthy red glow. Sarp is bleeding. Maxell pats Sarp on the head. Sarp's wounds stopped bleeding. Sarp twiddles his thumbs. Sarp pokes Maxell in the ribs. You say in xyllic: It seems my faith is stronger than yours, Maxell.

The smells of freshly cut wood and water sealing concoctions thoroughly permeates the air. The ringing sound of hammering and perpetual sawing is a constant reminder of the work being done. The partially finished hulks of ships sit in drydock. There is a sign displaying important information about how to buy a ship. Beside the shipyard is a small marketplace. Patapalo's Black Market is to the east and Barbanegra's Weaponry And Armoury is to the south. To the southeast you see the entrance to the local smithy. There is a banner above this entrance. The market continues to the north. Northwest you can see the harbour of Aldea Morir. You can leave: north, east, southeast, south, northwest.

Caracach[satai] and an almond-eyed long-haired male elf is resting here. Nuga arrives. Shiori arrives. Jagron dances in. Welleran arrives. Shiori looks at the almond-eyed long-haired male elf. The almond-eyed long-haired male elf stretches his legs and stands up gracefully. Shiori says in xyllic: Hi Kyuzo. Caracach nods to the almond-eyed long-haired male elf. The almond-eyed long-haired male elf sings in xyllic: Hello. Caracach yells in xyllic: Greetings Caracach looks at the almond-eyed long-haired male elf. Shiori raises her arms and mumbles some arcane syllables. Welleran says in xyllic: Get your things please *** Lots of equipping in background and some spam from equipment macros Kyuzu sings in xyllic: Saw this stuff here and thought I watch it so it won't get lost. Shiori mutters some ancient words and draws a horizontal circle into the air. As she snaps her fingers, the circle is filled with a solid disc. Caracach yells in xyllic: Yeah, sure The schnigge 'Flowing wind' arrives. Mortarth dances in. Shiori says in xyllic: Use the disc if you want to. Caracach looks at the schnigge 'Flowing wind'. Kyuzu looks up to Caracach. Kyuzu says to Caracach in xyllic: Did not know you rejoined satais. Caracach yells in xyllic: Did not know I left them Kyuzu ponders the situation. Kyuzu says to Caracach in xyllic: My mistake then. Caracach shrugs. Caracach yells in xyllic: it is no bigh thing. I was retired anyways. Welleran looks up to Caracach. Welleran smiles. Kyuzu nods. Welleran says in xyllic: Good to see you again Kyuzu looks at Welleran. Mortarth asks in xyllic: Anyone has a torch? It gets brighter as Welleran lights a torch. Caracach yells in xyllic: Retired when I was no use as a trainer anymore. Welleran offers a torch (lit) to Mortarth. Welleran gives a torch (lit) to Mortarth. Welleran nods understandingly. Mortarth burns the corpse. The corpse burns to dust. Caracach yells in xyllic: But it seams I have to train my old cranky bones again. Mortarth extinguishes the torch, but there is still enough light to see. Shiori looks at the corpse of the gray-bearded broad-shouldered female dwarf. Mortarth offers a torch to Welleran. Welleran says in xyllic: Well, with a centaur on our side, things seem much brighter. Welleran looks at the official judge badge. Mortarth drops a corpse of the gray-bearded broad-shouldered female dwarf. Welleran says in xyllic: Burn the corpses. Welleran sighs. You look up to Kyuzu. Kyuzu is an almond-eyed long-haired male elf, presenting himself as: Kyuzu, male elf. A sharp featured, long face is surrounded by long strands of black and grey hair that falls down to his shoulderblades. Bright blue, almond shaped eyes muster you with an intense gaze. His body is tall and lean and moves with elegant grace. His ears are almost round at the top though they are still pointed. You notice scars on his left hand, forehead and right cheek. He is tall and skinny for an elf. He looks attractive. He is in good shape. He is extremely alert. He is wearing a black leather boots, two golden rings, a grey massive bracelet with a pearl, a linnen dark green belt, a pair of crossed scabbards (with a black katana and a black wakizashi sheathed inside), a rune-covered helmet, a shadowy-black cloak and a thick braided leather strap (with a long rune-covered naginata sheathed inside). You guess he is wearing nothing additionally. Welleran looks at Mortarth. Caracach thunders to Welleran in xyllic: Dunno, I still think this is not my time anymore. I feel a little out of place. It gets brighter as Mortarth lights a torch. Mortarth burns the corpse. The corpse burns to dust. Mortarth burns the corpse. The corpse burns to dust. Mortarth burns the corpse. The corpse burns to dust. This is shipyard of Aldea Morir. The smells of freshly cut wood and water sealing concoctions thoroughly permeates the air. The ringing sound of hammering and perpetual sawing is a constant reminder of the work being done. The partially finished hulks of ships sit in drydock. There is a sign displaying important information about how to buy a ship. Beside the shipyard is a small marketplace. Patapalo's Black Market is to the east and Barbanegra's Weaponry And Armoury is to the south. To the southeast you see the entrance to the local smithy. There is a banner above this entrance. The market continues to the north. Northwest you can see the harbour of Aldea Morir. You can leave: north, east, southeast, south, northwest.

Caracach[satai], Jagron[satai], Kyuzu[asgoth_warrior], Mortarth[emerald_guard](with some letters on his forehead), Nuga[creature, shiori], Shiori[mage, atlantis, nuga] and Welleran[satai]. Shiori yells to Caracach in xyllic: I'm glad you're here. Welleran says in xyllic: The world is the same. Jagron comforts Caracach. Caracach yells in xyllic: Ok, you are all set then? Welleran says in xyllic: Still the same stuggle. Welleran says in xyllic: Let's return? Jagron nods to Caracach. Caracach yells in xyllic: Kyuzo, you are with Marcais, right? Kyuzu sings in xyllic: What do you mean, with Marcais? Welleran looks at Kyuzu. Caracach yells in xyllic: Asgoth Warrior Kyuzu nods to Caracach. Caracach yells in xyllic: Oh, or Vorphalak. Jagron looks at Kyuzu. Kyuzu says to Caracach in xyllic: Yes. Caracach yells in xyllic: Whatever With a big effort you try to concentrate on your earring, but nothing happens... *** Seems my smith gemline is depleted, well, Shiori will recharge it a bit *** later. You take a good swallow of the water. You drink from a waterskin (1l). Caracach yells in xyllic: Ok, thanks for having the honour to guard these things. It feels good to fight people with honour. Kyuzu nods to Caracach. Kyuzu says to Caracach in xyllic: I do not fight, yet. Welleran says in xyllic: Good. <The Alliance> Clang: You were both sacced? Caracach yells in xyllic: Oh, not all Asgoth Warrior's joined the war? <The Alliance> Stonebeard: yes <The Alliance> Mortarth: yes Norima dances in. Welleran says in xyllic: Enough have. Kyuzu sings in xyllic: I am the only one who did not. You say in xyllic: Some are kept out, like all the young ones in a clan. Kyuzu shrugs. Shiori looks at Norima. <The Alliance> Clang: I am just very sorry to hear. You nod to Norima. Shiori smiles friendly at Norima. Welleran greets Norima. Caracach yells in xyllic: Interesting. I will tell it to Uranos. May I learn your reason? Mortarth drops an emerald ring into the backpack. Kyuzu sings to you in xyllic: Trying to tease me? Norima sings quietly to you in xyllic: Just was going to search for you. My sympathy. You say to Norima in xyllic: Sorry for not answering. But without a tell device... Mortarth wears a pair of blacksilver leg plates on his left leg and right leg. Caracach smiles. Bright sunshine beams down through the cloudless sky. A falcon swoops down on you. It lands at your feet and transforms into a fierce warrior. He starts to speak with a thundering voice: I shall tell you from Morion: The sermon at Rokoon's temple of Padorn will start at 10 o'clock. It is 9 o'clock now! after delivering his message he transforms again into a falcon and flies away. Norima sings to Mortarth in xyllic: And the same to you. Kyuzu says to Caracach in xyllic: My reasons are my own. Caracach yells in xyllic: Hello Lady Norima Mortarth wears a medium backpack on his back. Caracach nods. Norima sings in xyllic: And greetings, everyone. Welleran says in xyllic: When someone who died so short a time ago says something sharp, its best to ignore it, no? Jagron nods briefly to Norima. Kyuzu concentrates on his gem. Mortarth looks at the small herbbag. Caracach yells in xyllic: Will you stay out of the war or do we fight next time we meet? You say to Kyuzu in xyllic: No. I just assumed things. I did not mean to insult or suggest false things. Please forgive my error if there was one. Kyuzu sings in xyllic: As long as you leave me alone I won't fight. Caracach nods. Kyuzu sings in xyllic: But I will defend what is ours if you attack. Norima nods slightly to you. Caracach yells in xyllic: Acknowledged. Welleran says in xyllic: We don't attack. Mortarth mummles about revenge Caracach giggles. Kyuzu says to Welleran in xyllic: Both sides do. Welleran shakes his head. Norima sings in xyllic: Mortarth, Neko, you have all things back? Mortarth nods. Caracach yells in xyllic: Well Welleran, we would if we'd find siege weapons Caracach winks suggestively. You say in xyllic: Seems so Welleran smiles. Norima asks Mortarth in xyllic: Armband, too? Mortarth nods. Mortarth looks at the green armband displaying a white stag. Mortarth nods. Mortarth sings in xyllic: Yes. Something is carved in your forehead. You are wearing two adamantite figurative bracelets, an adamantite figurative earring with a gem, an adorned blue armband, a backpack, a brown weapon belt (with a blackened knight's flail sheathed inside), a falcon-shaped adamantite earring, a falconguard cuirass, a furlined heavy boots, two golden rings, a leather belt (with a decorated dagger sheathed inside), a mystical necklace, an official sheriff badge, a padded gambeson, a pair of knight's gauntlets, a pair of winged vambraces, a polished knight's helmet, a sash, a small herbbag, a snake suit, a sturdy adorned set of greaves, a white kite shield adorned with a red dragon, a white tabard adorned with a red dragon and a wide leather bandolier (with a rope attached to it). You are carrying a long dragon halberd, a semiprecious gem, two small herbbags, a small mortar and a waterskin (1l). *** Seems just my potions are gone, but well... should have used them anyways. Welleran nudges you. Shiori looks at the feluke 'New Life'. Norima sings in xyllic: Alright. I'm back to my work then. Welleran says in xyllic: Our thanks for watching the murdered ones things. Kyuzu nods to Welleran. Welleran looks at Kyuzu. Norima concentrates on her gem. Mortarth try to rub his fore head clean. Welleran says in xyllic: My name is Welleran, Kyuzo Caracach yells in xyllic: Ok, let's leave Kyuzo to his sparring. Kyuzu bows softly to Welleran. Welleran does likewise. Caracach ponders the situation. Shiori looks at the disc. Mortarth sings in xyllic: Thanks Welleran waves quietly. Norima concentrates on her gem. Kyuzu sings in xyllic: Lingering here is not wise....... Jagron closes his eyes and looks focused. <The Alliance> Norima: Let's move. This is not safe here. Shiori yells to Caracach in xyllic: Let's head back. Welleran says in xyllic: Agreed Caracach yells in xyllic: Ok. let's go Jagron opens his eyes, and as you look at them you notice they radiate energy. Your team order: First row: Caracach (leader) is in good shape. Nuga is in good shape. Jagron is in good shape. Welleran is in good shape. Second row: Stonebeard is in good shape. Shiori is in good shape. You nod. Norima makes the barest suggestion of a bow. Norima starts moving northwest. Norima skips out northwest. Caracach starts moving northwest. Caracach canters northwest. This is the harbour of Aldea Morir. This is an old quay that looks as if it could sink at any moment. The constant creaking of wood rings in your ears. There is a consistent stream of burly looking sailors stumbling drunkenly into and out of the pub to the north. To the west you can see the cliff and to the east you can enter the marketplace. The shipyard is to the southeast. There is a departure times table. You can leave: north, east, southeast. A feluke 'One Figmental Kraken', a knorre 'Isis', a schnigge 'Calamity', a schnigge 'Da wood swims', a schnigge 'HONOR', a schnigge 'Lily', a schnigge 'Oosama no Sekko', a schnigge 'Stormrider', a schnigge 'Yrrigav' and a trimaran 'Warmonger'. Caracach[satai]. Nuga arrives. Shiori arrives. A disc hovers in. Jagron dances in. Welleran arrives. The schnigge 'Stormrider' sails to the sea. *** And back to Padorn.
