Zanthon

[uc pseudonym]

Created as per request.

[silver_wolf454]

Ooc: Ok Lets start this firecracker ^^ Everyone will start out in a village pub in the Shade teritorys. Each have been sent by their tribes to trying and find a reason for Zanthons sudden changes.

[silver_wolf454]

Firence entered the pub. His hooves making a solid think, thunk, thunk, across the wooden floor. The shades in the pub quickly pulled up their feet so they wouldn't be trodden apon. Firence glared at their insolance. As if he were some clumbsy colt who would trip over his own feet. He went up to the bar and ordered a tankard of ale.

Omega sat in the dark corner where he felt safe. He often came here it was queit, a good place to think. He looked up as the large centar entered the pub. He was a big one, you normaly didn't see them this far out.

[Kiba-kun]

A few moments later, Anser strode through the door way, wrapped in a travelers cloak. "I can't believe I was asked to come to the Shade's territory . ." He grumbled. "It's unfit for a Beaumont to come here."

"Relax, Anser. It's not that bad." Came a voice from behind him. Karin walked through the door way. "At least you weren't asked to go to the Chetarin's territory."

Anser ignored her and ordered a large tankard of ale as well.

Rajah sat at the opposite end of the pub, in clear daylight though he kept his hood up.

[Althaia]

Dawn walked into the pub and pulled her hood down she felt people staring she used to it because most people would think blue hair is weird "humph" she is always cold towards people who stared but thats to be expected "hi" she said to Rajah" I'm Dawn whats your?"

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah looked up, way way up, to see Dawn. "Rajah." He mumbled. "Can I help you?"

[insanewitapen]

Delunin sat at one of the many tables in the pub while more people began to walk in. She was clothed more than usual with; a loose white shirt, knee high pants, and many bags and the like on a belt. Though all these things touching her scales was indeed quite annoying, she had grown accustomed to it from extensive traveling.

While Delun sipped at her beverage an expression of bored familiarity clouded her face. She was restless to take on her assignment and get moving. Inside she was pleased; finally, something new to do!

ooc: Her name is still Delunin but Delun will be the short version I use. And it'll probably end up being her nickname. :]

[rocklobster]

Sumac walked in to the pub and walked over to Dawn, "Hey, you think you can tell me what's going on?"

[Julio Navarro]

Eir walked in the pub, according to his information this is where they would be gathered and eventually head out. He walked to the counter and ordered a glass of wine and leaned against the counter elegantly as he looked at everyone's faces and turned his head as the shade poured him his wine in a crude-looking tankard.

'I should have brought some of my glasses' he thought and took the tankard, appearing pleased with it, paid him and sat in the nearest table, almost choking as he took a sip and dismissed the pubkeep's question with a wave of his hand thinking, 'By the Gods, this wine tastes horrible...how I miss the Vineyards back home...'. Eir placed the mug on the table and stares out the window, ocassionally shifting his gaze to look at those who entered and the others inside.
-----------------------------------------

Sithis looked at those inside from the chair he sat in a dark corner, he wasn't siting there with the intentions of concealment, but he felt a deep sense of comfort there. He looked up at everyone who entered, his pale face and golden eyes easily visible as he stared at them and studying each in detail.

[silver_wolf454]

Omega looked up. He saw Sithis and slowly walked over to him keeping to the shadows. "Greetings brother, May the stars shine in your favor and the sun be hiden." He said greeting him with an old shade greeting. "You will be on this mission as well?" He asked his golden eyes shining. "There are many different types of people that are coming."

Firence looked about him finishing his ale. He paid the bar girl and gave her a flirty grin. She rolled her eyes but smiled.

[Kiba-kun]

Anser drained half his tankard and looked at Firence. "Well there's a sight I never thought I'd see. A centaur out of his herd, what is the world comming to?"

[silver_wolf454]

Anser drained half his tankard and looked at Firence. "Well there's a sight I never thought I'd see. A centaur out of his herd, what is the world comming to?"
Firence snorted. "Wel there's a sight thought I Never thought I'd see......A Beaumont the size of a female nymph." he said with a smirk. Then seeing his friend he added. "Well....Who do we have here?"

[Kiba-kun]

"Size of a nymph?! I'm more than a foot taller than her!" Anser practically yelled.

Karin smiled. "I'm Karin."

[silver_wolf454]

"Size of a nymph?! I'm more than a foot taller than her!" Anser practically yelled.

Karin smiled. "I'm Karin."
Firence leaned down to eye level with Anser. "...If I was so small I wouldn't make so much noise...." He said narrowing his eyes. He was at least five times Anser's size and he knew it.

[Kiba-kun]

It didn't make Anser back down. He drew himself up to his full height and glared at him."If I were so big, I'd be watching were I stepped. You might end up with more of thorn in your hoof than you can stand, ya pack mule."

[silver_wolf454]

It didn't make Anser back down. He drew himself up to his full height and glared at him."If I were so big, I'd be watching were I stepped. You might end up with more of thorn in your hoof than you can stand, ya pack mule."
Firence's eyes flashed. He reared up on his back legs. The blades on his hoves flashing. He brought them down hard and slamed Anser into the wall. "Realy and you would be that thorn in my hoof?" He growled lifting him a good three feet off the ground.

[Kiba-kun]

Anser smirked despite the immense pain of being slammed into the wall. "Yeah. I would" He brought his claws up to slash at Firence's chest but instead got a faceful of water.

Karin stood a few feet from the two of them, a length of water extrending from her arms. She'd also splashed Firence across the face. "Knock it off you two! If you want to kill each other, do it where people won't get hurt in collateral damage."

[silver_wolf454]

Anser smirked despite the immense pain of being slammed into the wall. "Yeah. I would" He brought his claws up to slash at Firence's chest but instead got a faceful of water.

Karin stood a few feet from the two of them, a length of water extrending from her arms. She'd also splashed Firence across the face. "Knock it off you two! If you want to kill each other, do it where people won't get hurt in collateral damage."
Firnce snorted and shook his head to clear his face of the water. He dropped Anser. "Sorry my lady....some times my blood boils..."

[Kiba-kun]

Karin put the water back in the canteen on her hip. "So I noticed. Now try greeting each other again or I'll do more than just splash you."

[silver_wolf454]

Karin put the water back in the canteen on her hip. "So I noticed. Now try greeting each other again or I'll do more than just splash you."
He looked down at Anser. "Firence. Prince of the western herds...." He said with a bit of a glare.

[Kiba-kun]

Anser glared back but didn't reply.

"Anser . . " Karin growled.

Anser looked at her from the side of eyes and sighed. "Anser. Ain't got a regal title and dont' want one."

[silver_wolf454]

Anser glared back but didn't reply.

"Anser . . " Karin growled.

Anser looked at her from the side of eyes and sighed. "Anser. Ain't got a regal title and dont' want one."
Firence smiled. "I didn't think you would." He turned to Karin. "Can I buy you a drink miss?"

[Kiba-kun]

"Sure." Karin said.

[Althaia]

"Rajah huh neat name " :) she said smiling sweetly "no reason its just your the first person i have met that hasn't stared at me because of my blue hair " she looks down and grimaces"ugh i like that they fear me but still staring is not nice right?" she asked.

[Julio Navarro]

Eir raised an eyebrow at what happened in the pub, although he agreed that a centaur outside the herds was an extremely rare site, it wasn't one to be insulted, but instead marveled, that one would forsake their herds for the greater good of the entire realm, in his opinion, it was an honor to meet such a centaur; maybe he ought to introduce himself soon, but for now, it was best to sit back and watch events unfold, and try to manage to swallow this wine.
--------------------

Sithis looked up at the shade and nodded saying, "And may your shadow strike fear into the hearts of our enemies." He chuckled as Omega asked him if he was here for the 'mission', adding a 'yes, yes I am' and looked around the pub, "Indeed, there are many who would join us, I'm surprised even an elf showed up, usually they never get involved with anything; it's rare that a centaur would part from their herds, but we should be thankful as we're going to need all the help we can get, although I do hope they can all hold their grounds in combat, some of the races that arrived aren't notorious for handling themselves in battle, though time will tell.

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah nodded. "I can agree with you there. Everybody has something that would make people stare. Some more than others, but it still doesn't make it right." He pushed out a chair with his foot. "Care to have a seat?"

[rocklobster]

Sumac overheard Sithis and thought he might be the elf they mentioned. "Well, Sithis, I'm an elf that loves adventures, that's why I showed up. If you keep to yourself, you never have fun."

[insanewitapen]

Delunin was preoccupied with pulling back her long black hair as well as she could when the 'fight' broke out. She watched the tossel between the centaur and beaumont with great amusement. Working with all these people promised to be extremely entertaining.
When the Nymph calmed the two fueding men, Delun shifted her eyes to other parts of the bar. Her eyes caught on to two shades conversing in the shadows.

"Indeed, there are many who would join us, I'm surprised even an elf showed up, usually they never get involved with anything; it's rare that a centaur would part from their herds, but we should be thankful as we're going to need all the help we can get, although I do hope they can all hold their grounds in combat, some of the races that arrived aren't notorious for handling themselves in battle, though time will tell.

"Well, Sithis, I'm an elf that loves adventures, that's why I showed up. If you keep to yourself, you never have fun."


"So true," she said to herself, grining at the elf's sudden introduction.

[Julio Navarro]

Sumac overheard Sithis and thought he might be the elf they mentioned. "Well, Sithis, I'm an elf that loves adventures, that's why I showed up. If you keep to yourself, you never have fun."
OOC: ((You might want to edit your post and change 'Sithis' to Shade, or any of the sort because he has yet to introduce himself and therefore even by eavesdropping, your character wouldn't know his name. Remember that characters are not psychics and although you may know the names of all characters, that doesn't mean your character does. Keep that in mind for future occasions...))

Sithis looked at Sumac, apparently he had overheard the conversation, hell, who can blame him, it was a small pub, "I meant no offence, I am honored to see two elves have come, and there may be more on the way, which shows us how the others have come to understand the magnitude of the situation. I do know that some elves prefer the life of an adventurer, and I respect that, but most in general prefer to keep to themselves even in grave matters that would require their attention, but I do know that when a situation arises that they decide to act, there has been little defeat in their side. I apologize if you were offended by our conversation." Sithis kept his irritation at the elf's rude outburst to himself and made sure to speak in a calm manner as not to alert him of his current demeanor and keep the chances of any discussions or fights to a bare minimum.
----------------
Eir had overheard the entire discussion seeing that elves are notorious for their keen senses and decided to keep his attention to the window as the Shade was correct in his assumptions and made clear that he didn't mean it as an insult. He kept thinking about what the shade said, it was completely accurate seeing that elves live a long life and therefore tend to be more old-fashioned and patient when dealing with their matters including ones that may threaten them, but it was for a good reason: although the other races may take a century or two to recover from a major event, elves on the other hand took much, much longer to fully recover from a war or any other major loss and therefore had to keep to themselves unless in times of emergency.


OOC: ((By the way Silver, is there's anything that I’ve said, like the elves' demeanor or any of the sort that you do not agree with, do not hesitate to point it out and correct me, after all, this is your world))

[rocklobster]

"It takes little to offend me, Shade. I don't dwell on things much." said Sumac. "What's your name?"

[Julio Navarro]

"It takes little to offend me, Shade. I don't dwell on things much." said Sumac. "What's your name?"

Sithis stood up and made a small corteous bow "My name is Sithis, Shade of the Orondur village and Soldier of the Shadows in this quest, now what would your name be master elf?" Although the last two words seemed to be pronounced with a slight tinge of amusement, Sithis kept a serious appearance and looked him straight in the eye, waiting for an answer.

[Monkey J. Luffy]

Tesnu walked into the pub and took his hood off. As he carefully stared at his surroundings he went to buy a drink. After he got the ale he went and sat down in a corner near the back.

[Nami]

OOC: Here I go.. hope I don't mess this up..

IC: Celest was seated in the pub, she sat in one of the far corners away from the people, keeping herself in the dark. Celest had no wish to be seen by anyone, her slitted eyes scanned the brightly lit pub, taking a quick swig of her drink, her ears twitched on top of her head, and slowly she stood. Celest was swift and smooth as she dodged around people, after all.. she was a Chetaren. She stopped at the counter and got a refill of her drink, she wrinkled her nose at Anser. "ugh.. a mutt out of his pack.." she muttered.
-------
The door to the pub opened and closed with no sound, so no had heard the shade come in, his footsteps were silent as he made his way up to the counter, his dark cloak heavily shading his face so that none could see anything underneath of it's dark exterior.

His gloved hand tapped the counter when he reached it, and in a low but cool voice he ordered a drink from one of the bartenders, who nodded swiftly and went to get his drink. Azure(Aka Phantom) eyed the pub, no one except the Bartender seemed to have noticed him, and for that he was grateful..

[Althaia]

"yes thank you as i said i am Dawn and i am a drac what are you sorry if i seem nosy i am just curious" she smiles sweetly"um excuse me bartender i would like some water please with lemon thanks" she said her elbow went back the hilt of her sword showed but she quickly covered it.

[Kiba-kun]

Anser spun around fast and grabbed Celest's throat. "And just when I thought the day couldn't get better. A chetaren starts speaking about me. What are you doing here?" He demanded.
~~
"Umm . . ." Rajah muttered, tighting the hood on his cloak. "I-I don't really want to talk about myself. It would be rude not hear more about you first."

[Nami]

Anser spun around fast and grabbed Celest's throat. "And just when I thought the day couldn't get better. A chetaren starts speaking about me. What are you doing here?" He demanded.

Celest smirked and stared at him, "Well, somebody woke up on the wrong side of the bed.. or should I say den.." a low chuckle escaped her. "As for the reason I am here mutt, is none of you business." Celest said it cooly, but she bared her shiny feline teeth at him that were sharp and vicious looking, she knew that wasn't enough to threaten him.

[Kiba-kun]

Anser growled but let go of her throat. "You stay out of my, Chetaren. I will not hesitate to dismember you next time."

[insanewitapen]

Gees, everyones on edge. Delunin thought and frowned at all the conversations that were being made amongst her furture partners. Tapping her chin, she looked around for someone interesting. "Hmm, all the interesting dark corners seem to be too lively," she mused outloud. "Save for one."

Her eyes fell on Tesnu, yet another Shade, standing in one of the corners of the pub. He seems lonely enough. When she surmised his gaze was towards her direction she made a simple motion to catch his eye. His kind had always set a certain interest in Delunin. The reason most likely being their mysterious yet estranged niches of lifestyle.

[faithfighter]

Firana blasted open the door to the pub. "Anser you jerk!" She marched up to him. "How dare you leave me behind, you insolent idiot! I've been looking around for hours!" She grabbed his wrist and he could feel his fur turning into ice shards. "Well!?"

[Kiba-kun]

"Eh?" Anser yelped, surprised to see Firana. "Firana?! Where-where the heck did you come from?!"

Karin turned away from Firence. "Firana? How come you ran off?"

[faithfighter]

"I didn't run off," Firana defended, forgetting her anger "I thought you were coming back" she blinked innocently

[Kiba-kun]

Karin shook her head. "Uh-uh. Anser said you had run off for a while and would catch up with us in about a week."

Anser flinched and backed away.

[Althaia]

"well as i said i am a drac i don't if you heard about me i am what these guys call 'the storm'. mostly cause noones ever beaten me at sword fighting except for this one guy he never told me his name i wanted to find him again for a rematch but never knowing his name doesn't me there does it ":) she smiled sweetly again

[Julio Navarro]

Eirneldthas switched his attention from the window to the pub. Apparently most of the shades that were here had already left the bar area and the 'newcommers' were quite an interesting lot, hopefully they'll be his company during the quest. Eir rapidly spun his head around towards the direction of an entraged woman who was appearently named Firana, or at least thats what her aquaintances called her, stormed into the pub to argue with another. He wasn't interested much in the conversation and saw out of the corners of his eyes, the blue hair of a woman; he thought, 'How odd, a woman with blue hair, that's something you don't see everyday; I do remember seeing a lovely Merlady with blue-green hair sitting on a boulder in the lake by my settlement'.

When the blue-haired woman spoke, Eir cleared his throat, as he was laughing internally so histerically it was hard to contain it, 'Whan an ego that woman has, this journey will certainly be quite interesting'. Eir glanced around at the others before taking a sip of the wine, it tasted horrible, but bad wine was better than no wine at all.

[Kiba-kun]

"well as i said i am a drac i don't if you heard about me i am what these guys call 'the storm'. mostly cause noones ever beaten me at sword fighting except for this one guy he never told me his name i wanted to find him again for a rematch but never knowing his name doesn't me there does it ":) she smiled sweetly again
Rajah nodded. "Well you could narrow the search down if you know what race he was. And from there, search for warrior's."

[Althaia]

"yeah its just i never got a good look at his face because i was focusing on the battle" she sighed"i just i will come upon him soon i really want a rematch " she said pouting

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah pulled his hood up even tighter. "And were you thinking that warrior could be me?"

[Althaia]

"who know really all i want to know is why are you hiding your face its okay you can show your face to me i won't laugh" she smiles ^_^" i am not one to judge appearances"

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah chuckled nervously. "It's not my face that I'm ashamed about. It's more of a . . . more of a matter not really belonging."

[silver_wolf454]

Firence smiled. The group was getting larger by the moment. He slid an arm around Karin and lead her to the bar, rather rudely breaking up her conversation. "So what do you drink little miss?" He asked cheered by the large groups and ale.

Omega flattened against the wall at Sumac's sudden outburst. elf........noisy elf... he thought to himself. He eased around the other side of his new found companion bumping into an elf sipping wine at the bar. He smiled. "You drink that sluge?" He questioned with a smile. "You must have an iron stomic........."

[Kiba-kun]

"Anything really." Karin said, not noticing or not caring that she was just dragged away from her sister.

[Julio Navarro]

Firence smiled. The group was getting larger by the moment. He slid an arm around Karin and lead her to the bar, rather rudely breaking up her conversation. "So what do you drink little miss?" He asked cheered by the large groups and ale.

Omega flattened against the wall at Sumac's sudden outburst. elf........noisy elf... he thought to himself. He eased around the other side of his new found companion bumping into an elf sipping wine at the bar. He smiled. "You drink that sluge?" He questioned with a smile. "You must have an iron stomic........."
Eir set the mug down and looked at Omega "Tell me about it, it's horrid, but it's this or ale or any of the usual things pubs have so there's not much of a choice." He looked at the old tankard with slight disgust before returning his concentration to the Shade and motioned an invitation to sit at the table "I should bring my winecups next time I leave home, so what would your name be, my friend? I'm guessing you're here for the human intrusion, or are my assumptions inaccurate?"

[silver_wolf454]

Omega nodded and took a seat. "Yes, I am.....they took away my little sister Eve. They will pay......" He vowed darkly. He turned back to the elf. "The call me Omega......."


Firence nodded and ordered her a tankerd of ale. "If it's to big for you I'll finish it." He said with a cheery smile.

[Kiba-kun]

Karin took the tankard, it was the size of her head. "Nonsense." She took a big gulp of it and drained a forth of it. "Just because I'm small, doesn't mean I can't drink with the best of them."

[silver_wolf454]

Karin took the tankard, it was the size of her head. "Nonsense." She took a big gulp of it and drained a forth of it. "Just because I'm small, doesn't mean I can't drink with the best of them."
Firence laughed and patted her on the back rather roughly. "Wonderful!" He said with a grin. "I love a gall that can hold her ale!" He said laughing. He took a swig from his own mug and drained it.

[Kiba-kun]

Karin smiled. She knew she shouldn't be drinking. It did alot of crazy stuff to her head, but she'd been to up tight about the humans on Zanthon and decided she needed to cut back and live a little. She took her tankard again and drained it.

[Julio Navarro]

Omega nodded and took a seat. "Yes, I am.....they took away my little sister Eve. They will pay......" He vowed darkly. He turned back to the elf. "The call me Omega......."


Eir nodded as he heard this, "Ahh, then it will be a great honor to fight beside you in this quest, Omega. My name is Eirneldthas Lovandas, but you may simply call me Eir or Eirnel, whichever you please." Eir nodded his head in respect and watched the quick-tempered elf talk with the Shade.

"There's nothing worse than seeing an impatient and quick-tempered kinsman or any sort of companion for that matter, they can get you in a tight spot right where things are hard enough as it is. An interesting lot these are, a centaur prince, shades, beaumonts, dracs, nymphs, I'm really looking foward to this adventure." Eirneldthas chuckled as he thought of the possibilities and the possible argumens and events that would possibly ensue on their journey.

[silver_wolf454]

Eir nodded as he heard this, "Ahh, then it will be a great honor to fight beside you in this quest, Omega. My name is Eirneldthas Lovandas, but you may simply call me Eir or Eirnel, whichever you please." Eir nodded his head in respect and watched the quick-tempered elf talk with the Shade.

Eirneldthas chuckled as he thought of the possibilities and the possible argumens and events that would possibly ensue on their journey.
Omega nodded. "It will be a long trip.......most of us may die." He said his hand straying to the chain about his neck, an old habit from his past. "So...I've told you why I come bearing arms. What, pray tell, brings you to this future blood bath my friend..."

[Julio Navarro]

Omega nodded. "It will be a long trip.......most of us may die." He said his hand straying to the chain about his neck, an old habit from his past. "So...I've told you why I come bearing arms. What, pray tell, brings you to this future blood bath my friend..."

Eirnel thought for a moment, "Not much, haven't had much of a reason to come, come to think of it I gain little and loose much by comming, but i guess it's to make sure the order I worked so hard to restore, lives on to see it's former glory. I left my home, family, students and friends to come so they may live on to see better days."

[silver_wolf454]

Omega nodded. "A good reason indeed.....May the fates smile fondly on both our causes." He said raising the wine bottle.

[Julio Navarro]

Omega nodded. "A good reason indeed.....May the fates smile fondly on both our causes." He said raising the wine bottle.

Eir raised his bottle but choked as he took a drink. 'there has to be some good wine around here...' Eir quickly recovered and quickly drained the remaining wine in one gulp, he hated the wine, but he detested wasting money even more. Eirneldthas sat back in his chair, watching the others while he waited for the 'show' to start.

[silver_wolf454]

Eir quickly recovered and quickly drained the remaining wine in one gulp, he hated the wine, but he detested wasting money even more. Eirneldthas sat back in his chair, watching the others while he waited for the 'show' to start.
Omega made a face as the awful taste of the wine slithered down his throut. "Gah.....afwful." He said his eyes watering. "Nothing like the wine of the centar villages....." He smiled and bowed slightly to Eir. "I will be seeing you then my new found friend." He said as he slunk back to his shadowy corner.

[Julio Navarro]

Omega made a face as the awful taste of the wine slithered down his throut. "Gah.....afwful." He said his eyes watering. "Nothing like the wine of the centar villages....." He smiled and bowed slightly to Eir. "I will be seeing you then my new found friend." He said as he slunk back to his shadowy corner.
Eir nodded "I'll keep that in mind, but I prefer those from the western elves, it has stronger flavor and is less entoxicating, not to mention the older vintages are superb beyond description." Eirnel nodded in respect and raised a hand in a farewell motion and sat back comfortably in his chair.

[faithfighter]

Karin shook her head. "Uh-uh. Anser said you had run off for a while and would catch up with us in about a week."

Anser flinched and backed away.
Firana touched her lip in innocent confusion "really? maybe I forgot something..."

[rocklobster]

Sithis stood up and made a small corteous bow "My name is Sithis, Shade of the Orondur village and Soldier of the Shadows in this quest, now what would your name be master elf?" Although the last two words seemed to be pronounced with a slight tinge of amusement, Sithis kept a serious appearance and looked him straight in the eye, waiting for an answer.
"The name is Sumac. Do I need to be wary of you? I've heard Shades aren't to be trusted."

[Althaia]

" hey your probably more normal then me i am the one with the blue hair" she chuckles smiling. she takes a sip out her glass of water and spies soemeone looking at her intently buit she glances away.

[Julio Navarro]

"The name is Sumac. Do I need to be wary of you? I've heard Shades aren't to be trusted."

Sithis made a slight bow as he introduced himself "Well master Sumac, it is a pleasure to meet you. I'll take it that you are not from these parts, in that case I am willing to let this matter slide like water under a bridge, forgiven and forgotten. You see, we Shades, or at least the ones from the mountains from which I hail, which is a small distance north from this settlement, value respect above all else; we intend to keep our word when it is given, but should you do something disrespectful, like what you have just done by interupting my conversation withought apologizing or at least introducing yourself before saying anything else, then you will find yourself in a troubling situation at the wrong side of our blades. I do not say this as a disrecpectful threat, just a future refrence. Now, I will take my leave before this matter gets out of hand, beware, an army that fights against itself will face decimation even against the weakest enemy."

[rocklobster]

Sumac realized he'd better leave the Shade alone. He walked over to Firana and introduced himself.
"Hello, what might your name be?" he asked.

[Kiba-kun]

" hey your probably more normal then me i am the one with the blue hair" she chuckles smiling. she takes a sip out her glass of water and spies soemeone looking at her intently buit she glances away.
"Well I'm definatly normal somewhere . ." Rajah muttered. He looked around the pub. Most of the Shade's had left and it was now the assortment of the different races around. None of whom looked excepectionally friendly. "I could show you what I am . . but not here. And only if you promise not to attack."

Firana touched her lip in innocent confusion "really? maybe I forgot something..."
"Uh, yeah! That's it exactly. You forgot something. Heh, easy mistake." He chuckled nervously. Firana always made him worry. Out of however many months they'd spent together, she'd never been exactly friendly with him and her control over ice always made him nervous.

Karin twirled around in her chair, eyes more than a bit glassy and a drunks smile on her face. "Wee!"

[Althaia]

"i will not attack you on my honor as a swordsmen" she says "or swordswoman which ever you prefer trust me i don't scare easliy do you wanna go outside ?" she asked "or would you prefer the forest outside of town?"

[Kiba-kun]

"Outside is fine." said Rajah, standing up. He headed for the door and waited for Dawn expectantly.

[Althaia]

Dawn walked toward him and gave icy glares to all that were staring"lets go i wanna get out of here the tension can be cut with a knife " she said walking out of the door" i wonder whats going on yo know why we are all here "

[Kiba-kun]

"I guess it'll be explained eventually." Rajah said. He led her to the side of the building, away from the eyes of those going into the pub and and the eyes of those by the windows. "You know how humans came to Zanthon correct? How it originally was a military and then those who could millions of dollars to come? Well . . " Rajah pulled back his hood, revealing the face of an unexceptional, every day, human teenager. "I was one of them."

[Althaia]

"wow really oh this is so cool " she is jumping up and down"i have always wanted to meet a human" she said giggling "you humans are so fascinating" she smiles ear to ear " i gonna show you something but we have to go to the forest though the trees are tall enough to hid me"

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah was a bit taken aback. He knew that humans weren't generally accepted on Zanthon. Seeing a Drac, heck seeing anyone accept a human and think they were cool was more than brain numbing. "Uh sure . ." He said, following her to the trees.

[Althaia]

"i would step back the thing i am gonna show takes up a lot of room" she says concentrating her anatomy changes as she turns into a blue and icy white dragon " what do you think?" she says and grins. she then changes back "honestly i like this form better be a dragon is too much of a hassle i am too big so i tend to just use my wings if i have to fly"

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah grinned. "No matter how many times I see a Drac do that, it never loses it's awesomeness."

[Althaia]

" i know" she smiles then smirks "i am probably one of the very few nice dracs but hey rajah you have never seen me fight or have you? because if you haven't you miss out dracs and swords go together like peas in pod its neat just to watch them practice its like oh whats it called on Earth fencing..?" she said pondering that.

[silver_wolf454]

Firence grined along with her. He wasn't drunk but he thought it was funny that she was. He ordered himself a third mug. "She realy knows how to have fun 'eh Anser." He said laughing hartly.

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah drew his sword and twirled it expertly, pointing the tip at Dawn. "I've heard of it. Care to have a go?"

[Kiba-kun]

"Heh . ." Karin said, leaning against Firence. "Another!" She shouted, holding up her arm.

[silver_wolf454]

"Heh . ." Karin said, leaning against Firence. "Another!" She shouted, holding up her arm.Firence watched her down what he had counted to be her fourth. "Carful not to pass out now." He said with a grin.

[Althaia]

" i geuss but remeber they don't me 'the storm' for nothing" her anatomy changes and her dragons wings in more smaller form are on her back she pulls out her sword its a thin but strong, she spins slightly "now i am ready" she said smirking as she get into position.

[Kiba-kun]

"I'm not gonna . . . who are . . oh yeah! I'm not gonna pass out." She said, spinning in her chair again.

Rajah charged at her and feigned swinging downward. He rolled the right and slashed up her back, making sure the blade barely skimmed her skin. It wasn't a deep cut but showed he could really put on some hurt if he had a mind to.

[silver_wolf454]

Firence chuckled and lifted her from her seat. He carryed her gently over to Anser. "Here........This is yours...." He said placing her in his lap.

[Kiba-kun]

"No . . " Karin moaned. She got out of Anser's lap and stumbled over to Firence. "You're much more fun!"
Anser sighed. "How much has she had to drink?"

[silver_wolf454]

"No . . " Karin moaned. She got out of Anser's lap and stumbled over to Firence. "You're much more fun!"
Anser sighed. "How much has she had to drink?""About five." He said as he picked her up and sat her on his broad back. "Stay." He said. He would never let anyone ride him but he was worryed she'd stumble off and get into trouble.

Vella entered the bar timidly. Her white wings folded behind her and her robes billowing from the breeze. She had the apperance of an angel from her smoth pale skin and long white hair. She turned quite a few heads causing her to blush slightly.

[Kiba-kun]

"No more." Anser said.
"Another!" Karin shouted, almost falling off. She leaned forward and wrapped her arms around Frience's torso to keep her balance.

[silver_wolf454]

"No more." Anser said.
"Another!" Karin shouted, almost falling off. She leaned forward and wrapped her arms around Frience's torso to keep her balance.Firence blushed a bit but just reminded himself she was drunk. He looked from Anser to her. "Well I can't hold her all night..."

Vella went and sat at the bar next to Eir. She was trying to get away from all the loud drunk brutes that surounded her. She didn't like drinking and she didn't like all of the drunkereds around. She wrapped a wing around her self and woundered if she was right to come at all.

[Kiba-kun]

Anser got up and lifted Karin off of Firence. "Come on shorty. Time for bed."
"No . ." Karin mumbled, leaning against him. Soon she was fast asleep.
"You didn't have to buy her all those drinks." Anser said to Firence.

[silver_wolf454]

Anser got up and lifted Karin off of Firence. "Come on shorty. Time for bed."
"No . ." Karin mumbled, leaning against him. Soon she was fast asleep.
"You didn't have to buy her all those drinks." Anser said to Firence.
Firence shrugged. "I like to see girls happy. What else can you buy in a bar." He said folding his legs under him next to the table in a form of sitting. He looked around. "Quite a strange group we have......."

[Kiba-kun]

"I don't know. Water?" Anser said. He looked around. "Yeah it is . . I've never seen so many different races in one place."

[silver_wolf454]

"I don't know. Water?" Anser said. He looked around. "Yeah it is . . I've never seen so many different races in one place."
He nodded and looked about. "Wow.....look at thouse wings...." He said grinning. He was eyeing Vella who looked ready to cry. "You should go talk to her short stuff...." He said with a laugh.

[Kiba-kun]

"Don't call me short." Anser mutered darkly. "And why should I?"

[silver_wolf454]

Firence shrugged. "I'd scare her even more. I mean look at her." He said gesturing to Vella. "She looks scared to death."

[Kiba-kun]

Anser sighed and stood up. He threw Karin to Firence like a sack of potatoes. He knew she wouldn't be waking up anytime soon. He headed over to Vella's table. "Hi. If I may say, it looks like you could use some company. You look like a trapped rabbit."

[silver_wolf454]

Anser sighed and stood up. He threw Karin to Firence like a sack of potatoes. He knew she wouldn't be waking up anytime soon. He headed over to Vella's table. "Hi. If I may say, it looks like you could use some company. You look like a trapped rabbit."
Vella spun around to face him. She had pulled ut one of her daggers and had it t his neck before he knew it. "Oh.......I'm sorry........" She said lowerng it. "You startled me...I thought you might be one of...thouse..." She said gesturing to a small group of drunk Shades.

[Kiba-kun]

Anser chuckled. More at the thought of him not being bother by a knife at his throat than a bunch of drunk shades. "It's alright. My name is Anser. And you are?"

[silver_wolf454]

Anser chuckled. More at the thought of him not being bother by a knife at his throat than a bunch of drunk shades. "It's alright. My name is Anser. And you are?"
"Vella....." She said softly in her musical voice. "I came from the south forests....."She said with a sigh. "Now I wonder if I should have left......Every thing feels so confined here...." She moved her wings a bit. "I feel caged....."

[Kiba-kun]

"Really?" Anser looked around. "I think it just smells funny."

[silver_wolf454]

"Really?" Anser looked around. "I think it just smells funny."
She smiled a bit. "You don't have a wing span of fifteen feet... I have to keep them folded tightly so I don't knock things over or hit people with them." Her wings shifted again. "I want to spread them out but it's to crouded in here."

[Kiba-kun]

"So let's step outside." Anser suggested.

[Julio Navarro]

[silver_wolf454]

Ooc: Before I post again. I want every one to get their intro's done so I can start everyone out.

[Althaia]

she smirked "your not too shabby" she blocks some of his attack then slice his arm"i am not gonna hurt you too bad because you were nice enough not to stare "she said smiling "plus this is fun its nice to have a worthy opponent"

[rocklobster]

Realizing he was being ignored, Sumac decided to just sit quietly and see what happens next.

[faithfighter]

"Uh, yeah! That's it exactly. You forgot something. Heh, easy mistake." He chuckled nervously. Firana always made him worry. Out of however many months they'd spent together, she'd never been exactly friendly with him and her control over ice always made him nervous.

Karin twirled around in her chair, eyes more than a bit glassy and a drunks smile on her face. "Wee!"
Firana shurgged and excepted the answer. She smiled happily at her sister. "have I missed anything?"

[Nami]

OOC:... okay, I am lost.. do I will wait with my characters..

IC: Azure glanced around the pub, things seemed to have gotten a little heated around here. He looked down at his drink and took a sip, his blue eyes once again scanned the crowd, and he wondered.. what they were all here for.

Celest smirked and took her drink back to her corner and sat.

[insanewitapen]

ooc: While I'm not lost, I'm concerned at how many pages have been made since I last posted. XD; I'm just waiting for Monkey J Luffy to reply but I'm kinda worried him and the other people who haven't posted since then will be quite intimidated...and lost. >_>;

[Kiba-kun]

((If ya'll change your post per page to 40, it doesn't seem like that much. Most of it is quick two second one liners and with 40 a page, it doesn't look to bad.))

Rajah jumped back at being sliced. "Indeed." He rammed into her with the flat side of his blade, forcing her back. He rolled behind Dawn while she was recovering and sliced her backside. "Learned that from a video game."

[rocklobster]

"Nope." said Sumac to Firana. "You look beautiful. What's your name?"

[Julio Navarro]

He rolled behind Dawn while she was recovering and sliced her backside. "Learned that from a video game."
OOC: :lol: Wind Waker, right?

[Kiba-kun]

OOC: :lol: Wind Waker, right?((Twilight Princess actually.))

[Julio Navarro]

((Twilight Princess actually.))
Ahh, been itching to buy it, but I'd prefer to do it once I get the Wii.

[Julio Navarro]

Ooc: Before I post again. I want every one to get their intro's done so I can start everyone out.
OOC: Deleted the post saying Eirneldthas left the pub, so he's ready to start

[silver_wolf454]

Ooc: Ok thanks everyone ^^

Vella was just about to reply to Anser when a hooded figure steppped up to the bar. Eir and Sithis (I think that was his name if not I'm sorry ^^o) Would recognise him as Omega. He stood up on the bar with an air of athority. "We all know why we are here." He started. He looked around to see if he had everyone's attention. "We're here to mend our world and heal our loss....." He took off his hood his yellow eyes looking each of them in the eyes. "The question is.......Are you ready? Are you willing to die for what is right?" He nodded. "That's right! I said die!"

Firence raised his mug. "Ready and willing! For the herds!" He said.

Vella also piped up. "For the flocks!" She said with a smile on her face. We're finaly started!

[rocklobster]

"Finally some action!" said Sumac. He stepped forward
"What's your name? I'm Sumac. And I'll help in any way I can."

[Julio Navarro]

Ooc: Ok thanks everyone ^^

Are you willing to die for what is right?" He nodded. "That's right! I said die!"

Eir looked around and unhooked his bow from the leather that secured it to his back and held it up and spoke loudly and proud, "For the Woodlands!". The bow in his hands was made of a white wood carved with strange patterns and runes all in silver, the ends of the bow that secured the string was competely covered in a thick layer of silver that had many patterns carved into it. Now that the bow was set loose, the quiver could be clearly seen, it was filled with arrows which only the fletclings could be seen, these were made of an indigo feather with patterns of silver running down the shaft, the quiver was made of a white wood with several strips of silver running completely around it with carvings of a stone that gave off an eerie and almost ghastly green that was constantly shifting. Eir lowered his arm and re-secured his bow before smiling, ready to begin.
--------------------

Sithis nodded from his spot, keeping his hood over his face which covered the upper half. Not that he was completely willing and proud to join, but he felt it was unnecessary at this point to yell. He crossed his arms and awaited further speech.

[silver_wolf454]

Omega eyed Sumac. " I like your spunk, but you would do well to keep it to yourself and not address me directly......."

[insanewitapen]

ooc: Yeah I know you can change the number of posts per page but, frankly my dial up can't handle it. *stabs AOL* ^^;

ic:
Delunin had awaited a response from Tesnu until Omega walked in. A flood of seriousness flowed in the room as he spook and a sense of pride overtook her. She might have been chosen offhandedly by the pompous people of her underwater home, but she still loved that place deeply. Despite her lack of somber demenour, due to her extensive traveling over Zanthon, it pained her deeply to actually leave. For the first time, she found she was willing to die for something. Though another half of her, the half that showed the most, was still terribly excited to be seeing new things.

"Ready and willing! For the herds!"
"For the flocks!"
"For the Woodlands!"

With a broad, smile she added her own comment with a soft yet proud voice. "For the glorious oceans and all the world!"

[Althaia]

" hey you none of that now" she said smiling as she sliced him on the other arm " i wish to become friends if already hadn't cause i don't wish to fight you on the other side of the battlefield" she said smiling slightly

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah nodded and sheathed his sword. "We should head back."

[Althaia]

"true very true " she did the same and changed back to human like " its nice to kick back and fight someone worthy right?" she said smiling "just curious but do you name your sword?"

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah shook his head. "No. I don't. That's a parctice not many on Earth do. Then again, sword play isn't practiced on Earth that much anyway."

[Althaia]

" well thats odd but interesting seriously humans are so neat" she said smiling "rajah you should check some of the caves around her their really beautiful" she said laughing

[Kiba-kun]

"What makes them beautiful?" Rajah asked, sincerely intrested. Gemstones were a fascination of his.

[Althaia]

"well i have to say that there is a lot of what humans called rose quartz in the in fact theres a HUGE vein of it in the cave that i live in when i am in dragon form " she says "i don't touch it cause its to pretty to mess up" she says grinning

[Kiba-kun]

"Oh? That's pretty cool." Rajah said.

[Althaia]

" if you like later i can show you it" she said "but we better get back to the pub right?"

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah nodded and pulled up his hood. He could trust to let it down when he was around Dawn but he wasn't sure about the others. When they got back inside, Omega was giving his speach about what they were fighting for. "Well now I feel like a third wheel."

[Althaia]

"me too " she said listening intently so basically we are fighting because its the right thing to do eh? still sounds fishy but hey thats why my clan sent me she reached into her pocket and drew out one short glove a blue jewel in the a middle and a long glove and put them on " this should keep my hands safe from chapping from using my sword so much "

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah nodded and stayed near the entrance.

Anser listened to Omega without comment. All around him cheers went up for what the people were fighting for. He was tempted to send out his own cheer for mines when Karin mumbled, "For the ale!" It was near impossible to hear for all but the most sensetive hearing. He looked at Firana and mouthed, "Take care of your sister."

[faithfighter]

Firana smiled genuinly "I always do"

[Nami]

OOC:.. think I need to drop out of this one.. sorry guys.. ^^;; have fun!

[silver_wolf454]

Ooc: XD XD XD For the ALE!!!

Omega smiled at the nymph. "We know know how to close the humans off from our world but it involves sacrifice. There are eight gems of power. Four of which are here on Zanthon but....The other four are on earth.....We will use these gems to cut off the humans from our world but if we do....we will be trapped on earth...for the rest of our lives." He looked around expecting to see some people back out.

Ooc: Nami if you wish to drop out have your character back out now.

[Kiba-kun]

Anser looked around at the people. How many were willing to leave Zanthon forever? It's easy to say you're willing to fight, but to go the extreme of never returning . . . "I'll go where I'm needed." He said standing up. "If it means I never see the glorius Beaumont mines again, so be it." He looked Omega in the eye. "Just tell me how to get there."

[silver_wolf454]

Firence grined. "There's no way I'm letting shorty here have all the glory! I'm in as well!" He said carful not to bump Karin.

Vella nodded. "To know by my sacrifice I save the children of my people, I to am in."

[Althaia]

"we will be stuck on earth forever?" she said neat :) " hey rajah do you think if... if i do get one of the gems and you do too and we have to stay on earth maybe you can show me around?" she said smiling

[Kiba-kun]

"Actually, I have no intention of going back to Earth. I like it on Zanthon alot more." Rajah said. "Besides that, I've already crossed the wormhole. From what the sceientists can tell, once you cross it, you can't go back. So either way, I'm stuck."

[Althaia]

"aw..." she said "thats sad you cannot go back to your family" she said a sympathetic look on her face "but then again i wouldn't know my family died a few days after my 5th birthday"she said sadly

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah nodded. He could understand having family die.

[Althaia]

Dawn looks at him and hugs him" i think we are gonna be good pals Rajah" she grinning ''now to find those gems then humans can stop killing off people to get their land" she said emitting a low growl" but not you of course Rajah i think your one of the nicer ones " :)

[Julio Navarro]

Dawn looks at him and hugs him" i think we are gonna be good pals Rajah" she grinning ''now to find those gems then humans can stop killing off people to get their land" she said emitting a low growl" but not you of course Rajah i think your one of the nicer ones " :)

Eir's ears perked up as he heard this and his head rapidly swung toward Dawn's direction, his voice menacing and suspicious, "What? What did you just say? Did you just say that this guy you call Rajah is human? Did you just invite and harbor one of the same kind that are killing everybody, waging war against those who had never laid or even raised against them and taking the land that is rightfully theirs?" As he spoke he sowly walked up to them both, step by step and looking to those around him, to let them know of this situation.

[insanewitapen]

ooc: Ah! I was gonna do that Julio! XD darnit *snaps finger*

Delunin had heard exactly what Eir had heard but missed the chance to blurt out her thoughts. She cautiously rose from her seat as Eir confronted Rajah. With a swift movement she flew through the people in her way and slinked up behind the human's back. She roughly grabbed his wrists, pinned them together, and pushed him down on a nearby table. Her grip and force were firm, not easily wiggled out of.

"Why do you dare show yourself here?," she asked Rajah with a voice tainted with loathing.

[Althaia]

"BACK OFF" dawn yelled she whipped her sword " if anyone so much as lays a hand on him you will know they call me 'The Storm'" she said giving death glares to Eir and Delunin "i don't care if we are on the same side i will not hesitate to fight you" she takes Rajah away "you all are being prejudice have you no honor he is only a young boy and you should be ashamed all ofyou for a young boy wouldn't hurt anyone whomever they may be and wouldn't he have a attacked me had he been hostile hmm? ponder on that" she said taking him outside the pub "i am so sorry Rejah i didn't mean for you to befound out listen remeber the cave i told you about theres a secert entrance to it in the forest you can find it i know you can."

[insanewitapen]

Delunin shot a glare at Dawn. Is she defending him?! She gasped then at how easy it apparently was for the girl to get Rajah out of her grasp. With her anger boiling, she followed Dawn out of the tavern like a cat on a mouse' trail.

"Hold it!" she called grabbing the girl's shoulder and stepped in front of them. "You need to ponder something miss reckless! Just because he is a "young boy", and didn't attack you, is no proof that he's harmless! Ever think he could just be getting on our good sides for some malecious reason?" Delunin challenged with a menacing glare. "I even have a hard time believing you're so naive to calmly accept a human that easily! Despite what you think we have a right to be, and should be, suspicious of him! So, rather, you back off!"

[Julio Navarro]

Eir closely followed Delunin with one shortsword in hand. "What kind of naive little child would dare attach himself to a human so easily and forsake your own in the process; there is a diffrence between being just and being childishly stupid and stubborn and what you are doing is completely in the latter category. If you wish to protect the enemy, then so be it, but do not expect mercy from my part, you may be called 'The Storm', but that does not mean you can overcome all of us, from what I see, you are a simply child trying to scare those around you with petty words. I'm going to say this once, give him to us or suffer the consequences. You may think this is wrong, but use your head, what if they sent someone like him to spy or sabotage us knowing that one or all of us would accept him as our own and protect him? This is war, there is no place for mercy or acceptance when our lives and all of our civilizations are at stake." Eir raised his shortsword in case the girl decided to charge in and attack him.

After Eirneldthas spoke, Sithis walked up beside him, sword at hand, "I agree, these humans have caused too much suffering withought a second thought, if this is true, then what would stop them from the acts of betrayal? If you still wish to defend these humans then look at your own people, how many have been killed? How many children have been left parentless, how many brothers now weep for their slaughtered siblings, how many entire cities and villages have been razed to the ground just so the humans can have a little more coin in their purse? If there's anyone that you should be defending, it is us, and if you defend their kind, then you are nothing more than a traitor and shall be treated as such" Sithis raised his blade in preparation for battle, ready to charge if the young girl decided to protect the human.

[Kiba-kun]

"Hey back off yourself!" Rajah said. "Just because the military came here first doesnt' mean all humans are so gun happy. We had no way of knowing what the military did when they got here. I came to Zanthon to get away from humans. If you got a problem with me, tell it to my face."

[insanewitapen]

Delunin wasn't as ready to cut off Rajah's head as Eir or Sithis but she narrowed her eyes at the human's response. "I believe we are telling it to your face," she said and kept a hand near her knives. "That story hardly sounds credible. Why did you come here knowing that this is where all of us would gather?"

[Kiba-kun]

"First; you were talking to Dawn. That's not my face. Second; because I want to help. I've experianced so many wonders on Zanthon and I can see what other humans can do and what they are doing. I don't expect you trust me. Given the situation, I wouldn't trust me either. But what you're doing is sterotyping. I didn't pit you all as monsters. I'd expect the same from you." He drew his sword and held it infront of Delunin handle first. "There. Defensless. That help any proving that I don't intend harm?"

[insanewitapen]

Delunin yanked the sword away. "How foolish. This is war, stereotyping has nothing to do with it. You are of the enemy if you like it or not, it's called being cautious," she said simply and kept the sword firmly in her hand. "But you did not answer my question. You obviously knew what was transpiring here. Why did you come, if not as a spy to thwart us?"

[Kiba-kun]

"You're looking to deep, Darlin. I want to help stop the humans. Simple as that." Rajah said, crossing his arms.

[rocklobster]

"Will you please leave that human alone?" Sumac said. "I've met some kind humans before, so I know not to judge them too harshly. Rajah, is it? My name is Sumac. If you like, I can lend a hand against these prejudiced fools."

[Althaia]

she says with gentle eyes "listen i don't want to fight okay? we don't need to weaken ourselves when we have another enemy to fight that doesn't include Rajah as we all know most of us are wary of humans we can base on a FEW humans not all are evil and hunger for power but the only way to get rid of them is with the gems so we have to all work to gether toretrive them orelse this will never work"

[insanewitapen]

What's with these people? Delunin rolled her eyes at Sumac's insult. She was about to responed when Dawn spoke.
"I never said they were all evil, but you trust Rajah already?" she asked and set a testing glance on the human. It's true he wasn't defending himself, seemed innoucent enough, and no comrads of his were seen anywhere, but if trust was founded on mear appearences everyone would be taken advantage of.
"If you are here with good intentions, then that is terribly rare and it will take alot to convince people so," Delunin informed and turned to return to the bar. "Atleast people who aren't naive," she coldly added in a mutter as she walked through the door.

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah looked at Sumac. "Thank you for the offer but I don't plan on fighting them."
He listned to Delunin explain that he would need to do more to prove his intentions and sighed. He watched her go back to the bar and turned his look to Eir and Sithis. "Still want to fight a defenseless human? All I've got are my bare hands and let's face it, they cut pretty easily."

[Julio Navarro]

Rajah looked at Sumac. "Thank you for the offer but I don't plan on fighting them."
He listned to Delunin explain that he would need to do more to prove his intentions and sighed. He watched her go back to the bar and turned his look to Eir and Sithis. "Still want to fight a defenseless human? All I've got are my bare hands and let's face it, they cut pretty easily."

Both of them sheathed their weapons and Sithis made a slight bow as an end to the discussion and walked in the direction of the pub while Eir glared at Rajah "I'll spare you, but don't think for a mere second that I've even considered trusting you in the slightest bit". He gave Sumac and Dawn an expecially cold glare "I'd rather be a prejudistic fool that's alive because of the precautions that he took than a DEAD naive idiot who trusted the enemy too quick. There is no such thing as prejudice in war, it is a simple matter of taking precautions, you never know when there might be a dagger thrust into your own back by those who are on the opposite side." He gave the three of them a glare before heading back to the bar and standing in a place with a clear view of the door and those who would enter through it after him, specially those three.

[Kiba-kun]

"Well. That went lovely. Seems like I made some new friends." Rajah said rather chearily. He turned to Sumac. "So what's your deal? Why do you trust 'that human'?"

[silver_wolf454]

Firence looked out the pub window as everyone entered the bar again. "All the action's over now..." He muttered. Omega aproached him. "Save your breath centar. There will be much 'action' for you to take part in." Firence smiled. "Hope so."

Vella came over to Eir. "H-hello......." She said timdly with a small smile. She was blushing pink again as her white hair flowed about her face and shoulders in that perpetual breeze that seemed to suround her.

[Julio Navarro]

Eir smiled kindly at Vella "Many greetings, it gives me great pleasure to see a Celestial with us on this journey. My name is Eirneldthas, but you may refer to me as Eir or Eirnel, it does not matter which. May I inquire as to whom I have the honor speaking to?" Eir made a corteous bow as he said this.

[silver_wolf454]

Eir smiled kindly at Vella "Many greetings, it gives me great pleasure to see a Celestial with us on this journey. My name is Eirneldthas, but you may refer to me as Eir or Eirnel, it does not matter which. May I inquire as to whom I have the honor speaking to?" Eir made a corteous bow as he said this.
She put her hand to her mouth and giggled. "I am Vella....It's nice to meet you Sir. Eirneldthas...." She said smilling and returning his bow with a small curtsy.

[Julio Navarro]

Eir blushed slightly as she said his name, now that he thought about it, he hadn't been around women that much, seeing that he spent most of his childhood with his face buried in a mountain of books and if he wasn't doing that he wad too busy in the Woodland Archer training session. The only time he opened himself to others was when he started his order and taught his apprentice and opened up a 'Guildhouse' for the new order.

Eir laughed lightly at how she called him 'Sir' "Please, you do me too much honor. May u ask as to why we have the honor of your presence?"

[silver_wolf454]

She smiled cutely. "I want to save the children of my people. " She said happly. "I want to see them able to fly freely and not be afraid that they will be caught or taken from their home." She said looking out the window at the sky.

Omega tripped over Anser. "Uh!" He yelped suprized. He looked back at Anser. "Oh............it's only you...."

[Kiba-kun]

"And what's that supposed to mean?! Are you saying I'm just a short little bug that you can't see without a magnifing glass you jerk!" Anser yelled.

[silver_wolf454]

"And what's that supposed to mean?! Are you saying I'm just a short little bug that you can't see without a magnifing glass you jerk!" Anser yelled.
Omega laughed. "Hmmm......" He said starting to walk away with out saying anything. "Beaumonts......"He mumbled.

[Kiba-kun]

A chair hit the back of Omega's head. "Say that to my face."

[silver_wolf454]

A chair hit the back of Omega's head. "Say that to my face."
Omega's eyes grew wide and he wheeled about. "Bad choise....." He snarled. "Outside......Now." He said his eyes flashing.

[Kiba-kun]

Anser was already by the door. "The bad choice was calling me short."

[silver_wolf454]

Anser was already by the door. "The bad choice was calling me short."
Omega's lip curled into a snarl. "I never did such.......And now you've angered me..." He said pulling out his whip.

[Kiba-kun]

Anser flashed his claws. "Come on, Shade. Let's see if you know how to use that thing."

[silver_wolf454]

Anser flashed his claws. "Come on, Shade. Let's see if you know how to use that thing."
Omega smiled and snaped it on Ansers side, tearing open his clothes and ripping open his hide. "Let's see if you can keep up......."He said his eyes flashing crimson.

[Kiba-kun]

Anser picked up a chair and in one quick motion, threw it at Omega's head. While the chair was in the air, he kicked over a table and sent it rocketing at Omega. He was right behind the table, claws ready to slash open his chest as soon as he was close enough.

[silver_wolf454]

Omega quicky uttered a few words Anser didn't understand. There was a flash and the chair and table were reduced to splinters and Omegas whip met Anser face first.

[insanewitapen]

Delunin sighed while she leaned against the bar. That wasn't the way she wanted to introduce herself to the group. Her eyes widened as Anser picked up a chair and hurled it towards Omega. This isn't going too well.

[Kiba-kun]

Anser reeled back as the whip slashed his face. He punched Omega in the gut and left three deep slashes across his face.

[rocklobster]

"Unlike these people, I like to see reasons to hate a person before I actually do so." said Sumac. "So until you give me a reason to hate you, Rajah, I will give you the benefit of the doubt."

[silver_wolf454]

Delunin sighed while she leaned against the bar. That wasn't the way she wanted to introduce herself to the group. Her eyes widened as Anser picked up a chair and hurled it towards Omega. This isn't going too well.
Firence laughed as yet another fight was started. He heaved himself to his feet and troted over to Delunin. "Bit lonely?" He asked her cheerily.

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah nodded. "And I thank you for that." She's still got my sword . . .

[silver_wolf454]

Anser reeled back as the whip slashed his face. He punched Omega in the gut and left three deep slashes across his face.
Omega doubled over. "Ugh!" He moaned. He glared at Anser and charged again strinking at him in three diffent places. "You're not half bad..."

[Kiba-kun]

Anser was cut open and bleeding all over. "I'd say the same but I don't compliment anyone who slashe's open my face. That's gonna scare you know." He started a round house kick but changed tactics and and brought his other foot crashing down on his left shoulder.

[silver_wolf454]

Anser was cut open and bleeding all over. "I'd say the same but I don't compliment anyone who slashe's open my face. That's gonna scare you know." He started a round house kick but changed tactics and and brought his other foot crashing down on his left shoulder.
Omega winced in pain as his foot was brought down. His shoulder gave a small crack. He cracked his whip around Anser's foot and snapped him across the battle field. His anger was incressing and so were his blows. He brought the whip down at him in ten different places now.

[Kiba-kun]

A large and heavy blast of water rammed into Omega and sent him flying. "Lay off!" Karin said. "It's not Anser's fault he's got a short temper when it comes to his height."

[insanewitapen]

Delunin looked over at Firence and shook her head. "Nah, just wondering how in the world we're going to suceed with all these...easily offended people."

[silver_wolf454]

A large and heavy blast of water rammed into Omega and sent him flying. "Lay off!" Karin said. "It's not Anser's fault he's got a short temper when it comes to his height."
Omega righted himself quickly. "I see......I never mentioned his hight....." He muttered more strange words and large blast of light engulfed Anser Healing all of the wounds as his body would have over time. "There........" He said doing the same to himself. The slashes on his face had formed three small white scars.

[Althaia]

dawn sighs '' why me" she said smacking her forehead "hey rajah i think best to let them cool down" she said tugging at him arm" i promised to show you the cave didn't i "

[Kiba-kun]

Anser felt his face and imediatly noticed the scar. "As if I didn't have enough problems."
Karin rushed over and helped him to his feet. "Don't worry about it. I'm sure some girls would find it cute." She said with a smile. "Maybe . ."

[silver_wolf454]

Anser felt his face and imediatly noticed the scar. "As if I didn't have enough problems."
Karin rushed over and helped him to his feet. "Don't worry about it. I'm sure some girls would find it cute." She said with a smile. "Maybe . ."
Omega noticed Dawn trying to leave. "Nobody leave the group." He said firmly. "If you leave the group we leave you behind...."

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah went up to Omega. Now that everyone knew what he was, he left his hood down. "And what about me? Am I going to be left behind because I'm a human?"

[silver_wolf454]

Rajah went up to Omega. Now that everyone knew what he was, he left his hood down. "And what about me? Am I going to be left behind because I'm a human?"
Omega's gold eyes flashed a pure gold for a split second. "No....Your motive a pure.....Even if you are a human you seem to truely want to help us. We wll welcome this help...." He said as he started back inside. "It will rain soon..." He called back to them.

[Julio Navarro]

She smiled cutely. "I want to save the children of my people. " She said happly. "I want to see them able to fly freely and not be afraid that they will be caught or taken from their home." She said looking out the window at the sky.
Eirnel nodded with a short 'ahh', he looked down at his hands before speaking, "I don't know why I'm here, I worked extremely hard to ressurect the order of the Arcane Archers in the elven woodlands, but I found myself comming here after I finished teaching my student everything I know and establishing the Guildhouse. I guess I came to make sure that my work would live long enough to reach or maybe surpass it's former glory."

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah nodded and followed him inside. Now if I can just get the others to trust me . . . He looked at Delunin and saw his sword strapped to her hip. He clenched his fist but let it go. It was only a sword after all.

[Althaia]

Dawn goes in "i wish there was no such thing as fighting but as long as we have fee will our wishes can become corrupted and warped to fit others needs..." she said looking out a window

[insanewitapen]

ooc: XD whoops, forgot she still had the sword.

Delunin was surprised at what Omega had said, a shade's ability to know one's attentions was never wrong. How curious. That's when she noticed she still had Rajah's sword. Whoops. With her pride not soiled, she walked over to him and handed it back. "Sorry, but I hope you understand my reasons for reacting the way I did."

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah took his sword back with a grateful smile. "Of course. I would have been surprised if you didn't act that way." He sheated his sword. "We havn't been properly introduced. My name is Rajah."

[insanewitapen]

She still felt akward around Rajah but kept her unease hidden.
"Delunin," she smiled and looked back at Firence as an invitation, then turned back. "I'm of the Merpeople, as you probably have guessed."

[Althaia]

Dawns ear twitched at the word 'merpeople' " Delunin your a merperson oh wow thats so neat" she said eyes sparkling "i find the different races here on Zanthon very interesting"she said smiling

[insanewitapen]

She smiled awkwardly. "Thank you, Zanthon really is diverse isn't it," she looked at Rajah. "Unlike Earth I've heard? Only humans?"

[Althaia]

" yes thats what i am wondering is earth really diverse in species?"she asks -.o" it would be quite amazing to see the earth but sadly one cross into the wormhole and you can never come back"

[rocklobster]

Rajah took his sword back with a grateful smile. "Of course. I would have been surprised if you didn't act that way." He sheated his sword. "We havn't been properly introduced. My name is Rajah."
"My name's Sumac. Like the tree." Jason said. "Humans have always been kind to me, so that's why I thought I'd return the favor."

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah nodded. "Just humans and semi-intellegent animals."

[Althaia]

"oh neat " she said smiling "anything like what we have on Zanthon?" she asked semi-curious

[Kiba-kun]

Rajah shook his head. "Not really."

[Althaia]

''ah different ones eh?" she said smiling "earth still seems neat " she said looking off thourgh the window

[insanewitapen]

"My name's Sumac. Like the tree." Jason said. "Humans have always been kind to me, so that's why I thought I'd return the favor."

"That's..." she started, rather amazed he had met more than one nice human here. "Nice to meet you."

"Just humans and semi-intellegent animals."
"oh neat anything like what we have on Zanthon?"
"Not really."
''ah different ones eh? earth still seems neat "

Delunin kept her mouth shut, seeing no need to express her doubt in Dawn's comment. Her mind wondered back to the quest that was before them. "I wonder how we'll locate these gemstones..." she pondered aloud.

[Althaia]

"thats what i want to know too" dawn said . her ears perked up "do you hear that? i am not sure what it is, do you know?"

[rocklobster]

"And what is your name?" Sumac said to the girl.

[Althaia]

ooc: hey rock are you talking to dawn i am just gonna assume yes
ic:
"oh sorry pardon my rudeness my name is Dawn and i am a Drac am also know thourghout Zanthon as 'The Storm'"dawn said

[silver_wolf454]

Ooc: Are you guys ready to move along? I'd like to get moving before summers end XD XD XD

[insanewitapen]

ooc: Yes! I am! XD Just...waiting for your direction. ^^;

[silver_wolf454]

Ooc: Ok then.

Omega got up and stood where everone could hear him. "We're moving out now. We will start in the shades mountains just east of this village." He started to walk to the edge of the village. Firence got up and quickly followed him Karen still on his back. Vella looked over. "Excuse me." she said to Eir with a smile. She hurryed after Omega.

[Kiba-kun]

Karin was swaying a bit while she rode on Firence's back, still more than a little drunk. "You know, I thought centaur's didn't let people ride them."

[silver_wolf454]

Firence smiled. "We don't. But I don't want you to get hurt or fall down."

[insanewitapen]

Delunin slipped back over to the counter, set down the money for her drink, and picked up her bag by the table she had sat at. Shades mountains, to think one would be so nearby. Curious, she hurried out of the building and slinked up next to Omega. "How do we know where they are located?"

[Kiba-kun]

Karin nodded and leaned against his back. "Thanks. You're really nice."

[silver_wolf454]

Omega smiled. "They give off a sertain energy."

Firence smiled. "Thanks...You're not half bad your self."

[Kiba-kun]

Karin nodded and closed her eyes. Soon she was fast asleep.

Anser walked up next to Firence. "She alright?"

[insanewitapen]

ooc: Which races are able to sense the energy?

ic:
She nodded and attempted to admire the mountains she had traverced twice before. "Omega right? Is your village in those mountains?"

[Althaia]

danw was walking too she kept on getting a weird vibe it was slightly bugging her but she brushed it off as nerves"hey Rajah this is so exciting no?"

[rocklobster]

ooc: hey rock are you talking to dawn i am just gonna assume yes
ic:
"oh sorry pardon my rudeness my name is Dawn and i am a Drac am also know thourghout Zanthon as 'The Storm'"dawn said
"Ah, The Storm. Yes, I've heard of you. Well, Dawn, would you like to accompany me?" Sumac asked.

[Althaia]

"why sure why not I may be known for being cold but thats only if people stare it annoys me when people stare" she said" sooo whats your name sorry if I am being nosy I just being curious"she said smiling

[rocklobster]

"I don't take it as nosy at all. I'm an adventurer. I'll take any heroic task given to me. No matter how dangerous or foolhardy." Sumac said.

[Althaia]

"oh okay " she smiles and laughs a little "you seem like one of those knights in shining armor that fairytales talk about" she said giggling "don't mean to be mean but you do.." a wind blows her hair in her face she puts behind her ear and smiles.

[silver_wolf454]

Ooc: Only shades and nymphs of that element can sense the energy.


Omega smiled. "Yes, Yes it is..."

Firence nodded to Anser. "She's fine. She doesn't weigh much."

[Julio Navarro]

Eir followed Omega, making sure to keep the human and his 'allies' within sight, occasionally glancing at them just to make sure. It felt strange for him that he would fight and die beside these creatures, although he had seen some of them in the short period of time he traveled the landscapes in search of scrolls of the Arcane Archers, he hadn't actually seen a drac, beaumon or shade.

"So you're saying that you or some of your kind can sense the stones?"
------------------------

Sithis followed the group at the rear, making sure everything was alright. Although he wasn't fond of humans, he began to rethink his previous toughts about him, doubting the morality and manners of his approach.

[insanewitapen]

"Do...you know exactly where it is?" Delunin asked and kept her eyes on the ever nearing mountains. They would be coming up to the forest soon, she gathered, and looked over her shoulder to see if everyone was following.

"So you're saying that you or some of your kind can sense the stones?"

She watched as Eir come up beside them and looked back at Omega, also curious.

[silver_wolf454]

Omega nodded. "I can feel them. I don't think I will be able to pin piont each one but I can feel it stronger or weaker each step I take."

Vella aproached Sithis. "So we have two shades travaling with us." She said with a smile. "I am Vella Sir shade." She said with her cute smile.

[rocklobster]

"oh okay " she smiles and laughs a little "you seem like one of those knights in shining armor that fairytales talk about" she said giggling "don't mean to be mean but you do.." a wind blows her hair in her face she puts behind her ear and smiles.
"You're not mean at all. And unlike those knights, I do have one limit: I do not take any life unless I see no other alternative." said Sumac. "I value life too much."

[Julio Navarro]

Omega nodded. "I can feel them. I don't think I will be able to pin piont each one but I can feel it stronger or weaker each step I take."

Vella aproached Sithis. "So we have two shades travaling with us." She said with a smile. "I am Vella Sir shade." She said with her cute smile.

Sithis bowed his head as she introduced herself "Indeed, it is an honor to meet you Lady Vella. I'm Sithis of the villages to the north, we shades can sense any strong magic sources in the area, that much is true."

[Althaia]

"thats quite admirable but sometimes you have to kill someone so you don't get hurt" dawn said her head hanging low

((flashback))
"why why did you do this ?" a young dawn asked a bloody man "i did it so you never get hurt by anyone ever again " he said "you will pay for this!" she said swinging her sword crazily her emotions in chaos.
((end Flashback))

dawn had tears welling up 'i won't cry never again will i cry' she thought

[silver_wolf454]

Vella smiled. "Oh. That's very impressive." She streached her wings happly. "May I touble you for your name sir shade?" She asked with a smile.

[Julio Navarro]

Vella smiled. "Oh. That's very impressive." She streached her wings happly. "May I touble you for your name sir shade?" She asked with a smile.

Sithis chuckled "My apologies, as I seemed to have spoken in an unintelligible manner; my name is Sithis, it brings me great joy to travel alongside a Celestial. I see that what they say about your kind is true, your beauty is ethereal and your appearance majestic, if what they say about your skills in combat, then I'm afraid there will be no one left for any of us to take care of" Sithis made a low corteous bow before walking to avoid being too far behind while facing Vella.

[silver_wolf454]

Vella giggled. "I'm not to good in combat I'm afaid...I was the lowest rank in my classes."

[Julio Navarro]

Vella giggled. "I'm not to good in combat I'm afaid...I was the lowest rank in my classes."
Sithis spread his arms wide, mocking a theatrical statement, "And it is by the weakest that we are bested, what hope would they stand against the strongest of Celestials." He laughed for a short while before taking a kind, serious tone "Not to worry though, I'm certain that'll change in a short while. It's not much, but I'm fairly decent with daggers and shortswords so I can help you learn the basics and the slightly more advanced parries, though I'm afraid it would be best that you learn the rest by yourself so you may develop a style that appeals best to you"

[rocklobster]

Sumac overheard Vella. "I could help in that area." He said. "I am a great trainer."

[Julio Navarro]

Sithis' turned to face Sumac, it was clear that he was irritated from the uninvited guest, putting emphasis on the words "excuse me" as he began his sentence. It was apparent that he did not want the person before him included in the small conversation he had formed. "I believe I was having a conversation that did not include you. Another thing is that you shouldn't teach someone else your fighting style especially if they are of a diffrent race or culture than yours, as it might not work as efficient; they should be taught the basics and a few slightly more advanced techniques and let them develop their own from there."

[rocklobster]

Sumac backed off. He didn't wish to make an enemy of anyone. Especially someone more powerful than himself. He wondered if he should retreat to his forests to see if any elves would recruit him.

[Julio Navarro]

Since the source of the previous interruption was now taken care of, Sithis turned to Vella "My apologies, as I was saying, I could help you master the basics and some more advanced parries and after that you may spar with me so you may develop a style that suits you best. How does that sound?"

[Althaia]

Dawn was to caught up in memories as she walked to have intervened"sumac was it? i am sorry about that i was thinking and i couldn't help out" she looks down again

[silver_wolf454]

Since the source of the previous interruption was now taken care of, Sithis turned to Vella "My apologies, as I was saying, I could help you master the basics and some more advanced parries and after that you may spar with me so you may develop a style that suits you best. How does that sound?"
Vella nodded happly. "Oh I would love that." She looked around the group. "Maybe when we stop for the night." She smiled thirlled. "Every one is so nice to me now that we're out of that wreched bar."

[Julio Navarro]

Sithis nodded, having felt better now that he was out of that place as it was quite the uncomfortable setting cramped with too many people. "Yes, it would be best now that we have begun and it would certainly be unwise to continue our squabbling. Although I admit not to have much trust towards some of these, the wisest decision would be to acknolege their helpful presence and, withought throwing aside caution, continue the quest toward the common goal. Personally I don't have much of a problem with any of them as long as they all give me due respect and mind their manners."

[rocklobster]

Dawn was to caught up in memories as she walked to have intervened"sumac was it? i am sorry about that i was thinking and i couldn't help out" she looks down again
"That's fine, Dawn. I am always willing to accept anyone's help." said Sumac.

[Althaia]

"thanks so why are you wanting the humans out of the picture?"she asked politely "i merely want them out because they are encroching on my territory and i don't like unwelcome geusts other then a few humans that i will talk to"

[rocklobster]

OOC: I think I'm going to quit playing. Nothing much is going on, and my character keeps getting in trouble anyway. Sorry.

[Althaia]

ooc: AH don't quit! please don't :(

[silver_wolf454]

Sithis nodded, having felt better now that he was out of that place as it was quite the uncomfortable setting cramped with too many people. "Yes, it would be best now that we have begun and it would certainly be unwise to continue our squabbling. Although I admit not to have much trust towards some of these, the wisest decision would be to acknolege their helpful presence and, withought throwing aside caution, continue the quest toward the common goal. Personally I don't have much of a problem with any of them as long as they all give me due respect and mind their manners."
Vella nodded. "Ah I see....." She looked about herself as they got further intoi the mountains. They had been traveling for hours and it would grow dark soon, but Omega showed no sign of stopping.

Firence looked over at Anser. "It'll get dark soon....shouldn't we find shelter? Zanthon at night is not a friendly place....."

[Kiba-kun]

Anser shrugged and looked at the sky. It was getting a bit dark. "Don't know. We should ask that Shade, Omega but I can't say I really like him."

[silver_wolf454]

Anser shrugged and looked at the sky. It was getting a bit dark. "Don't know. We should ask that Shade, Omega but I can't say I really like him."
firence shifted a bit getting nervous. He looked back at Karen to see if she was ok. "You still back there girly?"

[Kiba-kun]

Karin nodded and leaned back, laughing at the sky.

[silver_wolf454]

Omega looked back at them. They don't look happy...but if we stop now we'll never get this over with..

Vella spread her wings and wrapped them around her self. "Sir Eir......." She said drifting over to the elf as she walked. "Does the night suit your tatses?"

[insanewitapen]

ooc: Aww, people quitting so early in the game! *gets out her RP defibrillators*

ic:
After they had walked a good distance into the forest covered mountains, Delunin wandered back over to Omega. She was starting to wonder about the nature of these stones that they were searching for.
"Are you able to tell if we'll reach the it before tomorrow?"
