We Are Our Avatars IV (Uh, closed for real now)

[CmmdrRosh99]

@Nail: I know... But it might make for a good, however brief perhaps, conversation between Terra-2 and Raven.

"Jean, huh? Nice." Katrina sits on the ground as the Water Orb vanishes away. Good... Just a few more...

Phoenix dashed over to Flonne. "We... thought you drowned until Katrina told us about the sea water..." She joins Jean in the hug...

 

[Furioso]

OoC: @Nail, @Rosh, their heads are pretty much pincushions, wouldn't be hard to guess who did that, not that you have to bring it up

 

[Drakmorg]

"Because that's kinda the whole reason we came here. Why were you here?" Etna replied. She was a little thrown at how...nonchalant Terra seemed to be acting towards her. Usually there was more growling and obvious hatred. "Oh hey...guy. Thanks for that arrow thing you did." She said to Raven as he walked over.
[hr]

Flonne coughed up water onto Jean's back as she hugged her, as her lungs had been filled with the stuff while she was underwater. "I'm sorry." She said.

 

[CmmdrRosh99]

"No, no... It's fine really." Katrina laughed slightly at Flonne. "Like I said about refunds for underwater inns. Too many complaints about drowning dreams!"

 

[Outisakanobody]

Jean didn't seem to mind as the water slid off her leather jacket. "It's alright. I'm just glad you're safe." she said while gently patting her back.

 

[Chungus]

Terra-2 was once again silent for a moment as she thought about how to talk herself out of this. She couldn't tell she had been arrested for quadrupple murder, obviously, that would blow her cover. "I was trying to get information out of one of them. Wich you two royally screwed up." she eventually replied to Etna, pointing at a random Knight Prime near the end of her sentance. Looking at Raven, she only hummed.

 

[Furioso]

Raven sounded hurt "Guy? After all we've been through you don't remember my name? Oh say it isn't so!"
Turning back to Terra-2 he said "Erm, well, sorry bout that... hey could those papers we're here for help with that?"

 

[Drakmorg]

"Well you must suck at interrogations, usually you're supposed to restrain people you're trying to get information out of. These guys came running as soon as they heard me jam a spike through the stomach of one of their friends'." Etna replied to Terra-2. "So are you just terrible...or was there maybe some other reason you're here?"
She turned her head to Raven for a second and simply said, "I'm not good with names, okay?"
[hr]

Flonne smiled as Jean and Phoenix hugged her. It felt nice having people who cared enough to be worried about her drowning....Even if they didn't seem worried enough to call for a life-guard or something.

 

[CmmdrRosh99]

@Flonne: Who needs lifeguards when you can breathe underwater? XD

Phoenix let go of Flonne and walked over to Katrina. "Soo... What's up?"
"Stuff..."
[hr]
The once guarded storeroom is now complete unguarded. All you need is a key... Which all of The Rose soldiers have.

 

[Chungus]

Terra-2 decided to adress Raven first while she thought of a new layer of lies to add to her story. "Most likely." She then looked back at Etna. "I was trying to be non-violent here." she replied, irritation creeping into her voice.

 

[Outisakanobody]

Jean hugged Flonne for a bit longer, then let her down.

 

[Furioso]

Raven sighed sadly "It's Raven... you know what I'll make a name-tag later..."
He turned back to Terra-2 with a look of surprise "Forgive me if I'm a little skeptical, but you don't strike me as the "non-violent type" these days."

 

[Drakmorg]

@Rosh: I 'unno, sharks? Sea monsters? I think there'd still be reason to keep 'em around.

Flonne flopped down to her knees when she was let go of and coughed up the rest of the water that had gotten into her lungs. Then she rolled over onto her back, still feeling rather water-logged. "I'm not doing that again any time soon..."
[hr]

"Sooo, what? You just waltzed in here and started asking questions?" Etna asked Terra-2, her tone indicating that she found the idea ridiculous. She looked around for a building where they would likely be keeping paper-work. She found only the store-room then walked over to it. The door was locked, so she just kicked it right the hell off its hinges, 'cuz she didn't take shit from doors. Then she started looking around for paper-work and/or anything valuable enough to be worth hauling back to town to pawn. "I'll try to keep that in mind." She said to Raven.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"Are you sure you're okay?" Jean asked Flonne.

 

[Chungus]

"That's rather offensive, really." Terra-2 said to Raven, feigning a indignant tone. "My past actions have been perfectly justafiable, mister let's-break-several-bones-in-Terra's-body. I was angry. I'm still angry. And frankly, comments such as those don't help." Following Etna, she said, "No. I alowed myself to be captured."

 

[CmmdrRosh99]

Katrina, feeling tired, used the amulet to teleport back to the ships. Seeing that Crystal had fallen asleep in the sand she picked her up and walked over to a secluded area around the beach where she casted her usual Darkness Orb before felling asleep as well.
[hr]
"Well... At least we know what we can do though..."
[hr]
A few papers were letters back home and others coming to the soldiers. Most were about an armored shipment coming in as well, clarifying Warlic's thing with a caravan coming in.

Two things were of great notice though. One as a personal journey entry

Its rather amazing what Knight Inquisitor Megan can do. Even as a former DragonLord, her powers have been amplified by the Ultimate Elemental Orb of Bacon, the exact same power that saved the world years ago. What they plan to do with to end Magic... Is uncertain but that shipment coming in might explain it. Et Rosa Surget.​

The second one as a half done report of a mage killing an adventurer, two knights and one knight prime. It was written today and slightly fresh from a few hours ago...

Spoiler: @Nail before you say anything I have this.

A female knight breaks off from training and salutes to Knight Prime near Clone Terra. "Take this one away to the jails... Here are the keys." He tosses the Knight the shackle keys as she catches them. She eyes Terra with a tint of sadness as she tells her to stand up. "Come on... Hopefully Rose Command will find something better than execution..."

(Personal Edit: It implies that they would have sent out a report...)

@Drak: Most people running around are hapless adventurers or Rose Forces... Though they (probably) would hate the whole 'breathing underwater thing'.

 

[Furioso]

Raven hung his head sadly "Oh won't you ever forgive me for that? It was a really stupid move and I'm sorry! I'll make you a cake every night if you forgive me!"
He followed Terra-2 and Etna into the store room

OoC: Yea that tornado was a horrible move wasn't it

 

[Drakmorg]

"I was in there for so long I feel like a water balloon..." Flonne moaned in to Jean.
[hr]

"Riiight. Of course you would have to do that. I mean, it's not like you could just come in, trash the place, and leave one alive for questioning, you know, like I can." Etna said to Terra-2 as she kept looking around. She picked up every single paper she saw, then brought them all out to the campfire to read them. She tossed the personal letters into the fire to keep it going ever-so-slightly longer. Ultimate Elemental Orb of Bacon, eh? Sounds disgusting, but probably useful. She thought, then tossed the journal entry into the fire, she kept all the other papers. She got a suspicion from the half-finished report. She handed it to Raven and said, "What do you make of this?"

 

[Furioso]

OoC: @Rosh, wait so does the report describe Terra at all? Or does it just say a mage did it?

 

[CmmdrRosh99]

@Furioso: Just a mage, but Terra was the only mage there. It was written today as seen by the ink.... so put two and two together and you get four.

Spoiler: After Everybody had left the outpost....

[hr][HEADING=3]

Lore: SwordHaven: HQ Rose.​

[/HEADING][hr]

"Once again, one of our outposts have been destroyed." reported Ethan. He was with Megan as well.

A woman [http://cms.battleon.com/df/images/NPC-JaaniaNew.swf] sat rather nonchalantly on her throne.

"It is of little consequence. We have been building years, have multiple plans to end magic at the standby. But I prefer the Knight Inquisitor's plan first and foremost. The irony behind it."

"Imperator Jaania, if I may? Reports of Katrina Banks have been rather unsettling. She is gathering the elemental orbs again."

"And... So? Once the Ultimate Orb has finished its duty it always scatters again. But let Fate decide what happens. It matters not; The Rose shall bloom the next season and season after that."

"Yes... My Imperator. Et Rosa Surget." Ethan exits the throne room.

"Megan?"

"Yes my Imperator?"

"Continue with the plan. And if they get in your way... Deal with them."

"At your command... Imperator. Et Rosa Surget." Megan tilted her cowboy hat and exited. Once out of the room she chuckle/hummed. "[sub]HOHOHOHOHehehehaahahahahahahahah! Man, oh man! This is going to be fun! The power of the Ultimate Elemental Orb of Bacon... The one power that saved the world.. Now to destroy it...hehehehe. At least half the planet will die, this will be funnn....[/sub]"

Phoenix watched Katrina disappear as she walked over to Jean and Flonne. "Guys... I'm going to bed..." she yawned.
