Meeting
Dark entrance. Stone steps. Murky waters. Disgusting creatures. Dieseased men. Broken gates. The torches.
I entered, black robes worn to signifiy the importance of his meeting. After all, it was the master I was talking to, not just some everyday fanatic.
"Did you find her?" called his voice, face and body hidden in crimson robes. I grinned, nodding, "Of course." She wasn't even a challenge. Easy to find, easy to lure. A game up till the very end. Its almost a shame she's no longer important.
"Then I assume you've obtained 'it'?" he said. It's never like him to do anything but get to the point so I might as well not waste my time talking. "Yes, I've got what you asked."
"Then go. You know what you must do. Stay silent and hidden and you'll find your next target within the Howling well. Complete your mission then leave Hydlaa to Oja. You will be called on there for the next step. Remember, no unnecessary conflict." Always brief and to the point with him. I nodded, turning to exit when I heard his voice again, knowing without turning that his glare was burning into my back, "Don't fail me again." My head fell as I left, walking quickly towards my next goal. My attack will be swift, its effect disastrous.
The torches. Broken gates. Diseased men. Disgusting creatures. Murky waters. Stone steps. Bright exit.

People get their own paragraphs in dialogue. </grammar nazi>
I sense suspense.

Very nice, Duraza. Love the down-up movement ;)

"Stay silent and hidden and you'll find your next target within the Howling well. Complete your mission then leave Hydlaa to Oja. You will be called on there for the next step. Remember, no unnecessary conflict."
"He will be here, in the well," the black robe ynnwn said to himself, throwing himself into the entrance. He slid down the tunnel quickly, moving quickly through the caves, searching for his goal. He stopped, looking at some of the piles of corpses, "Hmm, wonder what these could be doing here." He walked among them, following the path of long dead bodies to a corpse on the ground, one old and rotten wearing torn and bloodstained armor. A sword lay by this corpses side and his eyes were wide open and very much alive. "Still not dead Darkom? Your a persistant one."
Xeonart glanced up at the stranger, looking toward his sword but deciding against it, "Kill me if you want....I'm afraid that I no longer care to live. Destroy my soul so my corpse can rot."
"Sorry boy but I'm not interested in killing you. I'm here to offer you what your foolishness lost you. Skin and flesh, not rotted but alive. I'll return you back to resemble the demorian you once were."
Xeonart frowned, swearing under his breath, "Don't taunt me, just go."
The ynnwn smiled, thrusting his hand down at Xeonart's chest. Before Xeonart could react the ynnwn was upon him, bright light blinded him and he became lost in thought.

Yay. Because i think this means we will get another baddie from Duraza. Nice story too.
-
Unless I miss my guess, you'll get more than one.
-
The new and improved baddie comes with laser beams and a stunning premium feature that includes smiting of the unworthy at the push of a button.
-
Ooohh... Sounds jolly good to me. But does it have a built in coffee machine or at least the knowledge how to make a killer martini ?
Because if it does then i need to get to the bad side.
-
Fully customizable with a very simple payment of your soul.
-
Sounds to me like a deal. Where do i sign ?

Sounds to me like a deal. Where do i sign ?
And whose blood do you sign in?

WTF iz teh Howling Well?
-
The Burial Well. Everyone seems to have a different name for that thing.
-
Obvious assumption would be that there is more then one well. Thus it is dubbed the Howling well. Like BD will sooner or later get a tag because there will be more BD's. Wonder if the story will continue. And as long as its the blood of virgins I'm fine. I still have some left from my deal with Satan.
PS: Always read the fine print.

(Also, it says "The Howling Well" when you examine it :P)

[It's actually called "Eagle Bronze Doors". And there are other BDs, even if not yet implemented IG. Check out the books in the library ;)]

Messenger
"The gates to Oja.." the ynnwn said to himself, his black robe replaced with a dirty brown travelers cloak. He walked into the city, not even glancing at the guards as he did, muttering to himself, "I wonder why here of all places...Though it is not my place to wonder." He looked around for a while, spotting his target right away. A ylian, middle aged but strong with a face unscared. He walked up to the ylian, putting a hand on his shoulder. "There is work to be done...Go to Hydlaa, you will find four infected. Unlike you they've yet to be awakened. Make haste and send them here. Cut down anyone who gets in your way."
The stranger simply nodded before gripping his sword handle and walking off. The ynnwn looked after him sighing, "Now comes the wait."

Unnatural Phenomenon
At Kada-Els a normal evening is under way, drinking, merry making, and loud chatter. That is, until a demorian female stumbles against the doorway, she looks at everyone in the tavern hoping someone will offer some help. She takes two steps in to the tavern before collapsing to her knees. While on her knees her cloak falls open revealing a series of deep wounds cut into her flesh though her leather armor which have long since bled dry. As she lies there the cloak covering her back burns away revealing a 'V' burnt and cut into her back. Some of the patrons attempt healing spells as they do the demorian lets out a scream, and the last of he life drains from her.
In the Stone head a male Yilan stumbles into the tavern and falls to the ground, he drags himself along the floor and in raspy voice manages "Help....me...." The people in the tavern turn and watch the Yilan dragging him self across the floor. He is immediately approached by a fenki who attemps to heal him. As the crystal energy passes into him the Yilan lets out a pain filled scream, convulses, and falls to the floor lifeless.
Within the garden of the goddess Xiosia a group known as the Knowledge Seekers have a get together. Drinks, food, and delight, all interupted by a young lemur walking in and collapsing onto the scene. All scramble to help him, but time is already up. The lemur rips off his clothing, revealing blood and heavy wounds. Adorned on his chest is a huge V, burned into the flesh. It pules and his body is consumed by death.
[Thanks to all those who took part in these events and a special thanks to Timmothy and Shangshi for helping me run this event and with writing this :P ]

Duty
Atop Laanx's Scar
"What is it you want from me?" Xeonart spat out, staring down the ynnwn covered in black robes.
The ynnwn spoke with the same familiar voice, "For you to do your duty to your goddess. I have a message for you, one that I will spread to others like yourself."
Xeonart raised a brow, "And what is that?"
A few days later, within the tavern
Saggi speaks, clearly unsettled, "It could have just been some strange coincidence but...In the past priests have always deciphered the strange as messages from the Gods. I'm not sure if this truly is a message. I'm not sure if I want it to be."
Rulek stands, curious but silent while Aiwendil replies, concern on her face "So I guess you didn't like what the...message told you. Or how you understood it"
Saggi takes a sip from his mug "You see, I was praying to Laanx, asking on whether there was a chance I could restore faith and how it would bee done. I went to the well to drop something inside, a sacrifice in hopes of finding an answer. And in return I smelled something foul from the well. It smelled of death."
Rulek looks worried. "What do you think it means...?"
