Welcome back to my Blog again, after sometime without any Posts (from my other Blog) on the Story. Sorry about that, but I'm wrinting a Novel and I have to share time from this Story and the Novel, so it's difficult to decide which one I most like.
These here were three Sessions of Play, one in December, and two in January, but I lost track of the time, so I don't have the exact time in which these Sessions happened.
Today is Jan 23, 2010.
Previously...
The Dreammaker, the Dream Lord, gathered the group to solve the mystery of the Stolen Dreams, in which a number of dreams and destiny from the world's Leader-to-be were being stolen. So, the group gathered at the wastelands of the goblin territory. This way, they started to take missions to the goblin's assembly which rules the village of Gleekai. The action was not expected from the entity.
With a promise that they's not be in any danger, and their families were to be safe, Death got 'em a message from the entity of Dream.
Now, five months later, they gathered at the Priatelka's ruledom, home to Torian, to decide what they'd do in relation to the missions they'd expected to take.
(The Gathering)
Of course, nobles are much more used to teleport, but for long distance travel, it's so expensive it's better take a horse and road on.
Tack and Christal steped on the road at the end of the eighth month, 602 a.G., to go to Priatel'sa. It takes two weeks to get that north. The Ora plantation was already being set in on the glebes, so the smell of earth was sensed everywhere.
Hadesh was going through the air, flying over uninhabited areas. He was only stopping to get food, and where no sidha elf would see him.
After a week frying, Flausin got to Torian's Castle, and was accommodated at a rugroom. He drunk a bit of his new neverending bottle to get a better sleep. He has better clothes, now. Expensive. But well, all he really needed was in the bottle.
Hadesh was the next to arrive.
Immediately, Flausin shown Hadesh the bottle. A blackberry alcoholic goblin drink that never ends. Tack and Christal were the next and, too tired, were accommodated to sleep. The Djine Báech came to sight on the road. He was wearing very beautiful clothes, a turban with a gem, a new sword, and a new travelling bag.
Right, oah, all the group was together again at Priatelka ruledom.
The group got together to decide, what they'd better do, but there were no first agreement. Flausin, Christal and the djine Báech firstly decided to wait to give their opinion, because they wanted to talk to the Dreammaker first.
Tack Primus and Daytel decided to take the missions the Dreammaker has given to the group, for it was the reason the group was united, first of all.
Hadesh wanted to learn Magic, and was always trying to get a word with the mage landlord, but Torian said Tack was his master, so he was the best to teach him rightly.
Tack made a very convincing discourse to gather the group around the essential idea of the group, that may be resumed well as "The group was united by the entity Senhor dos Sonhos, designated by a number of entities, for we are the ones who can solve the problem of the Stolen Dreams".
Still, there were the need to know each other better to be able to do the missions.
So, Daytel accommodated everyone in his small Castle, and Flausin, Christal and Báech the djine went to a veranda to drink and know each other a bit more, specially because Flausin had shown them the bottle that never ends.
Christal haven't drink.
Báech the djine told the news from Principia to Flausin, that was more interested in the items the djines create, and Christal was listening most of the time.
Professor Primus, the beast Hadesh and noble Priatel were trying to gather the information they already have.
First, the Báech Islands were destroyed.
There is a Basilisk, a Snake that can kill a Dragon, somewhere down there, and it killed the Obsidian Dragon no one knows how.
The Dreammaker gathered them to the recover missions of future leader's Stole Dreams.
Well, no need to say this is something difficult to do. There was only one information they needed as it were yesterday.
The Cave. They talked about the day Hadesh saw the supposed Doppelganggers, and after that, he and Daytel saw a man with silver horns. And a second one. Hadesh made clear that he didn't saw horns at the first one. This is surely important. The ancient elemental Earth that lives at that territory was clearly confused, and assumed a position of defense against the first visitor, but knew not what to do with the second. So, the two silver horned men were probably the Silver dragon, and the fake Silver dragon. Of course, it could be a Doppel in a disguise.
Now, this is what they need to understand.
Who were there, the two horned men. What the ancient elemental of Earth is protecting. And why the two were there subsequentially.
And of course, the elemental would probably want something in return.
Tack, Daytel and Hadesh discussed many times what they'd better say to the elemental, and decided to go to the Cave.
Now they called Flausin and Tack said the magical word that would take them to the Cave near Rykdom. While Flausin were making the Teleport Ritual, they gathered all they'd better take with them. Tack carried the necessary components to come back.
All ready, Tack, Hadesh and Daytel got in the middle of the ritual and Flausin charged it with magical forces, so everything has gone to horizon, and the mountain lands came to existence around them.
(The Cave)
Walking, they sensed this was some kind of a sanctuary, an Earth elemental sanctuary.
In front of the Cave, Daytel called the elemental.
He came, from the deep of the Cave, and stopped in front of them. So, he sat in a position of poise, and after Daytel asking him if it was possible, they manned a fire.
It was the weather around that mountains. Weather was not cold this month, but the sanctuary's in a high area, in which a very long sierra let the sensation of cold terrible, in a windy ice breeze. So, they'd better keep the cold of this autumn away.
Daytel started.
- Salve, elemental Earth. You probably remember us. We're here to ask you some questions, if you don't care.
He was attentive all the time.
Tack casted Languages on himself, because Daytel was speaking Stone Language.
- The other time we were here, there were another two more visitors. You probably remember a man with silver horns. And so a second one, basically identical to the first one?
- Yes, - said the elemental - I remember. They were not the same.
Hadesh urged Tack to cast Languages on him, because the talk would probably be all in Stone Language this time.
- We need to know who was the true one.
- The second respected all rules of a sanctuary while walking the mountains. He's probably the true one, but I can't be sure.
- Both had horns? - asked Hadesh in common language.
- Hadesh... (started Daytel).
- Yes - answered the Earth elemental.
Daytel knew now that this was maybe the oldest elemental he ever seen, because his answers were so concise.
- Right, - said Tack - sorry, but you said this is a Sanctuary? To which God?
- To the Godess Ambar - was the answer.
- But Ambar is missing for the last one hundred and fifty years... - surprised Tack.
- This is still a Sanctuary... - he answered - and I am the guardian.
- For how long? (Tack asked).
The elemental didn't said anything this time.
- Sorry, but this is too much important for us, so for how long you are the Sanctuary's Guardian, here? (he insisted).
- For five hundred and seventy two cycles - he said.
They all became silent for sometime, thinking about what to question next, as the elemental was rightly answering. "An old one", thought Daytel. He fixed his mind on the purpose which has driven 'em here, and decided how to question.
- You know, Earth, - started Daytel - that there's a war now, a war amongst the Dragons (?). We're here to find out which one is the true Silver Dragon, the first to appear, or the second one.
- The second. He's the right one. It's all I can say, - said the elemental - but they're the same in a base.
- Sorry, but I need to ask, elemental - said Tack - but if you're a guardian, you guard something.
- I am here because Ambar asked me to protect this sanctuary (he answered), and I must ask you not to do much magic into the Sanctuary (said him, looking for Tack).
Hadesh was asking Tack to make a spell.
Tack immediately disabled the magic Languages on himself and Hadesh.
They talked about what more to ask, and Tack casted Languages on himself again and Hadesh, after the elemental let him do it.
- One more thing, elemental Earth - said Daytel - do you know how to differentiate the first from the second visitor?
- You must vow under earth - was the response.
- (...) and you'll tell us? (asked Tack).
So, they had to take off their shoes and put their feet on the ground, that they'd never tell the elemental told them how to know who's the true Silver Dragon.
- Invoke Saint Balder (said the elemental).
They had every answer they wanted, but what was in the Cave. They were satisfied. It was much more than others had said to them till now, as a matter of fact.
- Well, thank you, Earth (said Daytel). You really helped us, more than I can say now.
- Clean, before you go - the elemental said.
This was the end of the conversation, and so they just asked if he cares they walk around at the mountains, to which the elemental just said "Let everything as you find" as an answer, and went back to the deep of the Cave.
Walking around they discovered nothing more and so decided to go back.
There was only a fire in a distant mountain, that Hadesh wanted to go to see, but the others said it was not their problem.
So, they went to a side from the sanctuary, and Tack started to make the Ritual to go back.
(Back at Priatel's)
While the group was sleeping, Hadesh wanted to try to pray to his Godess, Drahmai the Dragon Godess of Magic and Treaties of Peace. It worked, but Daytel's Master was listening, invisible.
Hadesh talked and Drahmai passed to him some very important sensations that guided him, telling him that he needs to understand himself first of all.
So, Hadesh sensed Christal on the other side of the door, listening.
Daytel got very angry with that. He opened the door, and got Christal with a wind prison. He questioned her about what she was doing. She squeezed some words about what she was doing, and she just wanted to know what was happening. That didn't satisfied Daytel, but he now set Christal free and tell her that it was a wrong thing she just did. Daytel said everyone has secrets, at which Christal said she was the only one who had no secrets with the group.
Christal went to sleep.
In the meanwhile, Tack is dreaming.
(Dream)
A very strange dream, where he's inside a complex circle of protection of Divine Magic. He was at the top of a building, in a terrace. There's a green house there, and intuition was telling him it was something evil. He recognised some of the symbols of the circle, but nothing else. Then, he walked to the green house and entered. There's a coffin at the green house, of a black wood. A small altar, in front of the coffin, with a candle on the top of it.
He looks at the city, and that's a huge city with maybe 200.000 inhabitants, a black shadow dactyl in the top of another building. Plants, there, were dying while someone or something is inside the coffin, and probably dying too (he listen it screams).
The coffin opens and Tack Primus sees a Mummi.
At the sky, the eclipse of the Second Moon is happening at the same time. At the same time, various trapdoors got opened at the top of the building, and uncountable Black Elves came out of the trapdoors to adore this strangely born Mummi.
No doubt it was the vilest creature Tack had ever seen.
He step ahead, and look at the eyes of that creature, evil, looking to his own hands. Time ended to be there, so Tack stepped back, but the Mummi seems to realize someone was in there.
It was all. The dream ended, with Tack coming back to his room, looking to himself at the bed and so coming back to his body.
He went to the window, and an Eclipse is happening at this moment.
(At the same time)
Daytel was outside in the area of trees on the left side of the Castle talking to his Master, Aksias. Aksias said Hadesh communication with the Godess is true, She listened and answered.
They listen to something, there at the nightly garden.
(Also, at the same time)
Hadesh tried to go after Daytel, and the butler showed the way to the back side of the Castle. He is waking the lawn (gramado) while it happened. He stopped. His knees were forcing him to the ground. All he could do was to use the long spear as a support. He sensed all creatures of Darkness on their knees.
Using all his forces, he didn't got to his knees, and he knows that he is one of the only five creatures of Darkness who didn't.
So....
Tack went after Daytel and the butler said he was outside in the garden.
Daytel was after the strange sound, so he came back (his Master vanished) and found Hadesh using all his force to stay stand, just before Tack come to the garden.
The Eclipse starts to end and Hadesh got back to himself.
They went to the Apothekary, and while Hadesh told his story at the garden, Daytel decides to try Magic to see what is happening.
First, he centered in Darkness to see all creatures of Darkness saying "Hail the King", repeatedly.
Then, he tried Light and became very surprised.
(The Beings of Light)
Priatel listened to a strange meeting, of the world's Beings of Light.
That includes Saint Balder, Raja Tweet, The Great Wyrm (probably the Golden Dragon), a woman probably an Elf, a man called General by the others and more.
While at the Meeting, Tack and Hadesh saw Daytel shine, with a kind of a pearly Aura.
So, they called everyone.
It was said to Priatel that the War started. The new Leader of Darkness, the new Mummi King, will try to conquer the World. The group's missions are being oriented by a neutral Entity, the Dreammaker, so it is of much importance that the group stay a group. They said how a Basilisk is born, by a complex Black Magic as equal to this that turned someone into the now Mummi King. So, they explained that Hadesh were to be a Basilisk, but the Dragon Godess intervened. That's why he can speak Snake Language. Also, they said Lena Báech is under some kind of Spell. She can maybe do things out of her control. May even become a completely different person, with a trigger.
The Meeting also said that what could most help the group was that everyone would learn Dragon Language, Draka.
So, Daytel thanks The Meeting, and came back.
Everyone is there. The group gathered at Daytel's apothekary. Daytel said all he listened to the group. Now, it's a very special time, when everyone was saying their secrets.
Daytel's name is not Daytel. It's Torian Naraleiva Priatel'sa Drazci. And Naraleiva, the Copper Dragon, is his family's Patron.
Hadesh is impressed, because Torian said the real name that only was said to him before.
Lena (Christal) was afraid of herself. Flausin said he doesn't agree with dealing with that special condition, because anything could be the trigger.
Now, Tack Primus asked Hadesh if he was ready to make Magic, with a tone he sensed was in reverence to the noble art, and of course he said "Yes", so then Tack handed the White Wand to Hadesh.
As soon as he touched the White Wand, it sparkled in his hands.
Hadesh wanted to try.
He made a Bag, out of some clothing. Tack was there to negate, if necessary. When Tack sensed magically the item, it was not magical, but there was obviously something different, if not strange. Then, Hadesh tried to identify it. It was an item of the most terrible Black Magic he ever saw.
Well, there's something wrong then.
When Hadesh said the magical words of Fabrica, everyone listened to something else, at the same time and that was Snake Language.
Christal didn't listened to anything wrong at all.
So, they studied the Small Bag. First, it was difficult to understand what it was. Not magical, or terrible Black Magic. While trying, Hadesh exploded himself, and apparently Flausin teleported to run away. They so decided to study it using Draka Magic. Flausin came back.
Flausin entered Hadesh and Tack's minds and transferred the knowledge through a control of Hadesh body (by means of Telepathy).
It worked.
The Small Bag, just created with a simple Magic is indeed an item created by an erroneous Black Magic spell. Right, oah, Tack said he was going home to get new information from the Academy, and Flausin started to make a Teleport Ritual.
Professor Tack entered the Teleport Circle, and vanished.
But well, before he go, he told Hadesh not to use the White Wand in any circumstances.
Everyone stay looking to the Small Bag.
(Two Days Later)
Hadesh was at the Apothekary, and decided to study Magic by using Detection from his Training Wand onto the White Wand.
It went wrong, and a Black Cloud came of it, destroying part of the Apotheckary.
Tack sensed danger, and saw the candle of his Allies burning. He got his Orb and tried to see Priatel's. He saw the destroying Black Cloud and negated it through the Orb.
Doing so, he went back to his duty.
(One Day Later)
Tack came back to Torian's Castle.
He told everyone, that the books he studied had already loads of information about the past Events. Well, first he censured Hadesh for using Magic with (on) the White Wand.
And so, resumed.
The last Mummi King was created two Eclipses of the Second Moon ago. On the following Eclipse, the heroe Ayanima's father was born. There are missing Items of Power on the Triplet Worlds. First, there's The Egg, and no one knows what's it for, but it was created by Ambar the Godess of Time and Magic. There are also Five Rings of Power, and the old Legends says one of them was with Ayaname herself. Ambar is missing for the last 150 years, and no one can talk to Her.
Torian looked to his own hand.
At this meeting, the group decided to go to the Dreammaker.
(End of Session).
