Quest for the ShadowLife

[Tearlach t'an Ailech fin Leros]

We need to find a better place to take care of Elric, I have just halted the poison he has in his body, he will die if I don\'t remember what poison it is, think Tearlach, think.
Tearlach stands still thinking, after several minutes he says almost silent:
White poison, victim radiates heat, you can feel it yourself if you touch him, I think it must be Grelnixar, no wonder I didn\'t remember it at first, it doesn\'t exist anywhere near here, it won\'t kill him it\'s an oil extracted from a vrel plant.
The problem is that when he wakes he will start to run and he won\'t stop. It\'s called running death.
I know of a cure but we must travel farther before the plants that are needed will be available.
He must be watched constantly, he won\'t attack you but he will try to run, you can\'t talk to him either, he is to obsessed to hear you.
We will take shifts I take the last, but now we need to move as soon as I stopped his bleeding.

Tearlach touches the wound and starts to chant lowly in a dreadfull tongue, after a while the edges around the wound becomes a little white and the bleeding stops completly.

(OOC: who\'s Faroth? )

\"Nice job. \" Farsareck, says to the Ylian, stareing at the bloody chunks of goblin king.

\" Tearlach, what plant is it? I\'ll go get it. I do have wings after all. \" He said as if trying to remind them of the obviose.

[ninkwi njadro]

ooc:read this thread  to learn more about faroth. He\'s gang leader. He attacked me on the first page in this thread (shadowlife) and saved me on the third page

as ninkwi was sitting on the goblin kings back he is beeing trown around like a rag doll. The king is jumping and shaking heavy. Ninkwi tries to hold on. Then the goblin king jumps high up and ninkwi falls off. he hits the floor with a smack.and the pieces of the goblin king fell on him.The goblin kings body wasn\'t moving. bet then there\'s a lump moving. A big flap of meat goes up and from under it ninkwi appears. all covered in the goblin\'s and in his own blood. He stood up and said:\"man it is smelly in there\". Then he laughed.

[Dwinney]

\"Thanks,\" Galeic mutters, then turns his attention to Tearlach who had finished his chant. \"Could we give him a sedative to prevent him from waking up for the time being?\" the priest nods in reply.

Galeic rummages in the pockets of his jackets and comes out, clutching a few leaves that were pinkish in colour.

\"Remlir,\" he explains to the others. \"I may not be a healer by trade, but my mother once taught me about these curative leaves, berries and flowers.\"

He passes them on to Tearlach, who crushes them in his left hand until a white liquid seeps out. Tilting the Elf\'s head back, he forces several drops down Elrick\'s throat.

After several minutes, he stops and announces, \"Done, this should keep him asleep for at twenty-four hours at least.\" he halts for a moment, glances at the unconscious figure lying beside him. \"Meanwhile, we have to travel to find the cure.\"


(Let\'s not drag this on too long, lest the real mission is forgotten. Moreover, we have only three weeks to complete the mission.....right?)

[ninkwi njadro]

ooc: yeah let\'s dump his unconsius body. j/k

[Tearlach t'an Ailech fin Leros]

Since he is the one who knows where we are going, remember he has only said how long it takes to get to our target, the rest we don\'t know so we must find the cure for him, but we can still move in a starightforward direction so we will probably get closer to the target.
The plant we are searching for is yellow, has no leaves is 4 - 8 cm high and may grow on the walls but they grow more often in cracks on the ground.
Oh yes, when you find one, don\'t touch it let me do that job. For the matter of fact, don\'t go near it.                The plants name is Shutinis.

[ninkwi njadro]

\"what may I ask happens when you do touch the shutinis??\"ninkwi asked? \"and how willl we move him??\"

[Tearlach t'an Ailech fin Leros]

I have some gear that protects me from the spores that this plant uses to protect itself, it will hopefully be enough.
But let us go, the sedatives won\'t last for ever.
We can tie him to one of the spiders.

[Dwinney]

Galeic nods grudgingly. Looking around, he spots some long vines lying on a patch of grass nearby. Bending down, he picks them up and entwines them together, forming a strong-looking makeshift rope.

Following his example, the others also make similar ropes, then dragging Elric\'s body a little, ties him to the strongest looking Megara.

The Megara grunted, but once the Elf was positioned correctly, it started bounding along easily, hardly noticing the extra weight.

Galeic nods in satisfaction. Running swiftly to catch up with the spider, he then leaps up and settles comfortably on top, at the same time taking care not to let Elric\'s body fall.

[ninkwi njadro]

The group walks on trough the fog. The fog is still dense. from time to time you hear elric mumble something in his sleep. suddenly ninkwi breaks the silence:\"well we have been walking for hours now. Who knows with this thick fog maybe we are walking the wrong way.\" suddenly the fog is getting thinner. The group comes out of the fog. and what they see is a beautifull temple. They are standing higher and they look down on the temple the temple is surrounded with a village. The group walks down towards the village. then ninkwi said:\" no watch out! this is the city of um gollor! Be ware for traps. In the temple you see lives an evil sorcerer called durion. Aare told me about this. I always tought it was a myth. but now I see it is true\".\"do you see that sign.\" ninkwi points at the temple. on the temple are tree triangles that form a triangle.\"

ooc:I am gonna write a story about durion. all U need to know now is that he is an evil elf sorcerer. the thread with further info on durion i will call durion.
 

[farsareck]

\" Have fun taking care of the sorcerer, I\'ll go see if i can find the plant for Elric. \"  Farsreck says as he turns his back on the village and leaping into the air, soars back towards the forest.



\"Sheesh.....talk about getting sidetracked..........................the flower i understand, but an evil sorcerer......sheesh!\" Landing gently on the outskirts of the forest, he slowly walks into the fog/forest.



\"Sure is hard to see in here, if only nightvision could see through fog as well................Shutinis.........haven\'t heard that name in awhile.......last time i saw some i was on the third level................oh well. \"

Ignoring his thoughts he walked on.

[Tearlach t'an Ailech fin Leros]

Tearlach follows Farsarecks when he soars away, picking up what he says, and Tearlach fin Leros t\'an Ailech thinks: hope he doesn\'t try to collect it by himself he won\'t survive that.
Altough he is right about that sorcerer, we can always take on him later.

[farsareck]

\"Now i wonder where i will find this shutinis.............\"


He is cut off as an arrow hits his leather jerkin, and luckily didn\'t peirce the skin.

Ducking behind the closest tree, he quickly dug his claws in and swiftly climbed up the tree.

Looking down and trying not to make a noise, Far. silently hisses as another Kyros steps out of the woods. This one he realized, was wearing the strange type of coat as Tearlach.

\"I wonder if that is the coat is the same type of coat as Tearlach, has.........\" He silently thinks to himself.


\" Kyros! Come out. I know you are hiding behind that tree. \"

\" I mean no harm. I am just looking for some.....\"

\" Shutinis i know. That is why i am here. You see, this coat is the only one that\'ll keep you safe from the spores......you don\'t believe me? LOOK!!!!!!\" The other Klyros say, as he opens a pouch, and grabs something from it.

Suddenly he throws it at the trees that Far, was hiding in. Far had just enough time to see that it was indeed Shutinis before it smashed into the tree spraying spores every where.

Quickly, Far jumps into another tree.

\" Klyros, I am here to offer you a deal. The sorcerer, has been watching you. He knows where you are heading. He knows, what it is you seek, and he knows that Elric, has gotten the running sickness. And he knows.........all about each of you. What if i told you that there was a traitor in your group? That he will, eventually, be turned evil by the shadowlife? He wishes for you to join him. \"


\" No. I have given my word to Elric. Will you give me the coat and Shutinis? \"

\" If you want it......you must take it! \" The klyros says, taking off his coat and the pouch.

\" We fight. No armor or tricks, just weapons.\" He says, as he pulls out two long wickedly curved scimitars.


\" Agreed.\" Far says, slowly gliding down, and landing on the forest floor. He takes off his leather jerkin and pants, and gets into combat position staff held vertically in front of him.



( Hope that helps.  Ninwik, make sure you include this Klyros in your story about the sorcere.  I will do the fight later.     Far. )

[Tearlach t'an Ailech fin Leros]

Tearlach sees this, and when Farsareck agrees to no tricks, he silently think for himself then I can just watch, I can\'t break his word.
I really hope he survives this, and that he hasen\'t got hit by one single spore.

[Dwinney]

Galeic stares coolly at the temple, contemplating what paradox the three triangles would hold.

He swivels round momentarily as Farsareck and Tearlach leave, genuinely wishing them the best of luck in finding the Shutinis. Then he returns his attention to the temple.

The fog wavers gently in the air, for a second clouding his vision. Presently it floats away again.

Everything lies still and motionless...

(ooc: Come on Ninkwi, get on with your story.)
