The Adventure to Kadaikos

[Toru]

OOC: Bill! How could you? I am sorry to see you leave like this.
/OOC:


Toru lays down and takes off his shirt.  He then threw it into the river nearby and watched it steam and cool down.  he then picks his shirt back up and runs over to Keldain.

\"Are you ok?\" Toru yells.

... Keldain doesn\'t answer

\"Keldain!!!\" Toru yells once more as he starts cleaning his wounds with his wet shirt.

Everyone else lay around wounded, but all was silent.

\"No!!!!\" Toru yells as he gets up and throws his sword down.

\"why did I ever have to join this quest?\" He says as he starts kicking at the dirt.
Toru then hears someone talking in the distance, and he runs over finding Larien.
\"Larien!  Your still alive!  what is it?\"  Toru exclames, and Larien hands a little parchment that he had gotten from Keldain earlier.
\"Keldain is powerful\" Larien says, \"But as powerful as that, read it underwater; I hope you have enough magic ability in your body\"

Toru runs over to the river once more and starts reading the scroll....

\" Yousa guyes better get goins. The orcie orcies are comin\' for us,\" said Tasadar
  There were about a dozen Daktreme aproching the adventurers. Tasadar was notching an arrow made he made himself, bammbo with his own fur and the tips.
  \" Tasadar, shoot them all down\", said enkiuyit, Tasadar\'s companion.
  Tasadar could only drop about 4 before the Daktreme rushed on the men. The battle was fierce, The men were fighting out of pure anger, beacause of Bill\'s death.

  Toru stood up, \"Well thats the lot of those.\"
  \"um..... Mesa be going to go get some bammbosa for me arrows, be right back,\" Tasadar said.
  \"WAIT!! its too dange.......\" Toru said, but Tasadar was already our of sight.

  The group pressed on, not knowing where Tasadar was they just figured he would catch up. When Enkiuyit fell down.  One of the men pulled out and arrow, bammbo shaft with enkidukai fur on the end......

( that should make the story a bit more interesting)

[Keldain]

((OOC: Dude. Tasadar. Read the last two posts, there are no more orcs. Lol... that?s why I am a bloody rag heap. Let me just get this part in :] ))




     As Toru began to read the parchment he felt a slight tingling sensation running through hi body... the magic flowing through his veins like chill ice...

       \"EnraTa... Crntal-jin... Eft nourtaus.... Mithas!....\"

He held his breath, fearing that even the sound of his breathing would disrupt the spell... the tingling faded...

    And Toru waited...
 
              And he waited...

                               .......................

\"Grah! I should have known I wouldn?t have been able to cast the dam thing...\" And with that he crumpled up the piece of paper and hurled it into the river. With a shout, Larien attempted to catch the parchment but was unable to lest he fall headfirst into the river himself.
 \"What was that for? Now what are we going to do with him? We are miles until the next town an.\" A slender hand, placed upon his shoulder interrupted him.  \"Waah?\" He said as he spun around, hand on his sword hilt ready to confront the hands owner...

      .........

   Larien\'s jaw must have been hanging open... for the slender Woman standing there gave a slight chuckle, a smile playing on her sharp... but extraordinarily beautiful face.   \"Who are you?\" Demanded Toru as his jaw also dropped... his gaze held captive by this lovely sprite... at least that is what she appeared to be anyway.  Her long hair, tainted slightly blue ran down well past her divinely curved shoulders and her slender waist.

          The woman simply laughed at them, a laugh akin to the babble of a summer stream, and walked past... going to the place where Keldain lay. A look of concern passed over her face... like that of a caring mother for an injured child. Keldain\'s labored breathing was apparent, as was his pale white complexion, do to the extreme loss of blood.  
     The woman shook her head... almost scolding as she caressed Keldains head in her arms. His breathing eased and color returned to his face and skin... his wounds closing in on them selves very much like the water on the surface of a lake, leaving only scars behind.
      Keldain slept...
  The Sprite moved to where Bill lie... bowing her head in honor to the dead and easing the pained features left upon his face. She then returned to where Toru and Larien and the rest of the party stood.
     Walking in front of Toru she took his hand in hers... placing a small crystal vial in his hand and then closing his fingers around it.
    \"Who are you?\" Toru said again.  
The sprite simply glanced back to where Keldain lay and said a single word...

    \"Mother\"

And with that she walked over to the river bank... and was gone...

     Keldain sat up on his elbows, blinking against the oddly bright sunlight. \"What... what happened?\" He said, looking about the battlefield.  \"You where near death... A woman claiming to be your mother came and. heald you... she also gave me this\" He said, showing him the vial.  

       Keldain Laughed. \"That?s novel... Toru... Haven\'t I told you? I have no mother\"
   



((OOC: That should make it yet more interesting ))

[Dwinney]

Larien glanced up in interest. \"Do you mean your mother disappeared, or that she died when you were young?\"

Keldain shook his head vigorously. \"Neither, my friend. I have no mother, at least no one told me I had. And somehow, I never expressed interest in finding out the truth. Now that I think of it, that seems strange, no?\"

Toru frowned deeply. \"Yes,\" he admitted. \"That is  weird. Do you think someone cast a spell on you?\" he suggested and leaned forward in excitement.

Keldain was getting increasingly uncomfortable about the subject. \"I don\'t know,\" was his reply, and then he changed the topic by clearing his throat and saying \"Man, I\'m so hungry, I could eat a horse!\"

Getting the drift, Larien stood up and offered to hunt a rabbit or two. He accepted it gratefully.

So, Larien caught a blessed breeze and soared up and away. Minutes later, he reached a lake and stopped momentarily to refill his empty waterskins. Just as he was bent down, a shadow fell over him. Looking up, he saw the biggest Klyros in his life! He was strangely muscular with a flashy crest on his head. Two wings that spanned at least two feet fluttered in the wind.

Without waiting for a response, the older Klyros took Larien by the hand and muttered something incomprehensible.

There was a bright flash of light, then the pair disappeared.

(ooc: this is just a ploy to get Larien to learn the skill I want him to, so he will not get hurt or anything. Please don\'t interrupt the course of my mini story, I will catch up to the group ASAP.  Keldain: pls read my private message and reply back )

[Dwinney]

Larien closed his eyes tightly as the change took place. When he opened them, he found himself in a dark cave. The older Klyros loosened his grip and walked deeper in. Curious, Larien followed.
Finally, they stopped. Just ahead, Larien saw a large array of weapons and instruments. \"Where is this? And who are you?\" he asked. The other Klyros gave a half-smile and replied \"All shall be revealed in time, Larien. Be patient.\"
\"But.....how do you know my name?\" he questioned.
\"As I said, be patient. You will know the answer - one day.\"
Frowning, Larien nodded. \"Now, choose something you would like to learn,\"
He considered for a moment, then caught sight of a small musical instrument lying in the corner. \"That, if you please.\" The Klyros followed his gaze and smiled. \"Good choice, Larien. You are indeed my-\" he caught himself and looked away.
Something strange is going on , Larien thought, but he couldn\'t put his finger on it.
\"That is a piccolo, a type of flute. Let me show you how it works.\" he placed one of the holes to his lips and blew. Beautiful, strange-sounding music poured out. Larien listened in wonderment, his whole frame swaying  in tune with the rhythm.
\"Now it\'s your turn,\"
Larien took the flute and placed it on his lips, as the other Klyros had done. He blew.
But this time, weird, rusty sounds were produced. Larien stared down at himself in disgust.
\"Let me teach you....\"

And so for several days Larien trained himself in the art of bardsmanship, until he got rather proficient with the instrument himself. Just as he was about to leave, the older Klyros finally revealed his name. \"I am Victor,\" he said, as though they were meeting for the first time. Larien, not sure what to make of this, simply nodded mutely. Victor suddenly questioned \"Are you an orphan?\" \"Yes,\" Larien said in surprise, but also with a tinge of sadness. \"My parents disappeared when I was very young. I don\'t know where they went.\" His shoulders sagged temporarily, then he shook himself up.
\"I\'ll be going now.\" he answered, mounting the steed Victor had given him the day before.
\"Alright.\"

He watched in silence at the dark loping figure until he was out of view, then murmured softly under his breath, \"Nay, you\'re not an orphan boy.\" Victor paused and smiled sadly yet again. \"I am your father.\" Then, slowly, he walked back into the cave.

[whitti]

I think I should close the post, It really is getting sad and repeittive!

[Toru]

Whitti! I really like your new sig~!

Anyways.. back to what I wanted to say.. no, please don\'t shut this down, me and keldain are having fun posting.

Even though people are saying that this is going into a downfall of the story...

Lets get to Kadaikos now and continue there, maybe the story will prove better.  I really don\'t think that we should stop because bill got killed, and story went a strange path.
We should deal with it! Continue, because that is how a role-playing story works :-)

I hope you change your mind, for there are other options ahead.

And, if you want the story to end right now, then lets all get teleported to a safe place, or get killed, or get sent into some dungeon and get locked up until tale proves better. Or just end the story that we stayed there the rest of our lives trying to escape but never actually making it.

[Dwinney]

ooc: No, don\'t close this thread! And also don\'t end off the story by saying we stayed there the rest of our lives trying to escape but never actually making it, that would kill off my sequel, and since I\'ve already written a prologue and four chapters that\'s so NOT  going to happen!
Anyway, I\'ll get the story back on track...

Larien soon met up with the rest, and they travelled for weeks to Kadaikos, without much happening; it seemed as though Twauron had given up stopping their cause.
\"Or he might be preparing his armies for the final battle,\" Keldain warned. The others nodded in silent agreement and trudged on. Soon, they reached the Stone Labyrinths......

ooc: someone pls take it from there, I have to refresh my memory of the history of Planeshift, sorry... And I repeat, do not make any of the characters die in the final battle with Twauron. Thanks

[Toru]

As the travelers stood infront of the enormous gates they all collapsed from the beauty in front of them.
\"I.. I.. I..  I\'ve never seen them this close before..\" Toru says, \"Me too..\" Keldain replied.

\"Quick we must hurry!\" Larien says as he begins to try to open the gates.

OOC: From now on I am not using \" \" anymore, I don\'t have much time/OOC

Larien couldn\'t budge the gates so Toru and Keldain ran over and helped too.

They won\'t budge! Larien says, don\'t worry Keldain says as he starts looking through his spell book.

Ah! I\'ve found it! \"jyntai guhjah jentil oposituun\" Keldain says as blue and red arrows fly out of his hands and straight between the doors.

The doors slowly opened and the travelers laughed and ran inside.

Shh! Toru says as he runs deeper into the caves and smiles wonderfully at the immensely beautiful architecture inside.

   The ryukishins were lizard like beast that walked on four legs.
   The warriors sped off, affraid of the strange new beasts chasing them. but little did they know they were only going deeper into the maze.
   Corner after corner the warriors became more crossed and angry. When they heard someone calling to them. They followed the voice for a while, searching.
   They finaly sped aroung a corner to see something hanging from a tree, something that sent a chill down all there spines.
   The rotting corpse of Bill.
   All of the sudden Tasadar appeared. Then began eating bill.
   All of the warriors started firing arrows, throwing rocks or whatever they could find.
