* HappyLittleMoron nods slightly* <w> I know...and I thank you...*smiles slightly*
* Keelin nods, then turns to look around..
<Keelin> we should start soon...
* Diana arches a brow* So, is there a plan, or are we going to simply talk...?
* Keelin glances to Diana...but doesn't say a word..
* Devnet takes out his flute......made of pure silver and peices it together...
* Diana watches her*
* Shingami just.. stays where hs is watchign everthing... on edge bt hiding it well
* Devnet blows a few notes before starting in on a song...distinct sound of seeking to it...a gentle wave of magic goes through air...he moves around examining all the people and the energgies as he plays...seeming to glow with a soft white light
* Keelin watches Dev, face cool and calm..
* Klork blinks, looking at Al confusedly
<Al> He's looking at the situation here...
* Klork nods a little..still looking a bit confused however..
* Shingami blinks ant watches Devnet
* Devnet stops by HLM and kneels in front of her, playing a slightly different song, looking at her belly
* HappyLittleMoron blinkblinks...watching him...shivering a little
* Klork watches protectively..
* Devnet glances up at Klork...blinking at Rae slightly and smiling feintly before bringing the flute from his lips, the magic faiding as the music does
* Myrae blinks, slowly standing..her brows furrowed* wow..
* Keelin has since seated herself, sharpening the arrowheads on her arrows...
* Diana watches from the shadows still*
* Devnet grins at Rae, nodding as Kern comes down behind her* Well...the children Eloise carries are still healthy...but there's the makings of a permanent gate in that corner over there...she is still connected to her missing child, so, that should make the little one easier to find...
* Klork blinks...looking over..
<Klork> dang...
* Keelin sighs, putting her arrows back into their carrier and slings it over her back
<Keelin> then we should start soon..it's likely Teirnan is already expecting us anyway.
<Shingami> when do we leave then
* Al nods, powering up* Now.
<Shingami> good
* Myrae pulls on her cloak & traveling gear, looking up the stairs for Ker'*
* Klork looks over & pulls on the cloak from Diana..
* Kern's right behind her, in his own cloak*
<Klork> what about our weaponry..can we carry it with us..*glances at Keelin'..unsure*
<Devnet> Wrap it in thick silk...
* Keelin nods in agreement w/ Dev..
* Shingami summons a short sword mad eof the "death metel" and a katana mad eof pure silver both schethed
* Klork nods, heading up the stairs
* Keelin watches, brows furrowed..
* Klork comes back down, handing HLM her ring/bracelet thing...then slips a thick silk glove over it
* Diana summons her own sword and armor*
<Shingami> lets kick some butt
* Klork then attaches his new sword from Ker to his belt, sheathed by silk as well...hiding it under his cloak
* Keelin watches, then shakes her head
<Keelin> remind me not to be near all of you when you unsheathe those..
* HappyLittleMoron nods* Of course...
<Al> Everyone ready?
* Keelin nods, then motions to Myrae w/ her head
* Diana's sword and armor aren't death metal so nyah! <G>*
<Keelin> I don't see your purpose in coming, you've no weapons and are with child...*furrows her brow to Myrae*
* Devnet nods...* Read my mind...
* Myrae chews at her lip* I can heal others...
* Kern nods* In case there are injuries...
<Shingami> itll be useful
* Keelin nods
* Keelin then looks to Ker
<Keelin> keep her closely guarded then...she's valuable.
* Keelin looks to HLM
* Kern's got his daggar sheethed in silk* You need not ask.
<Keelin> she as well..
* Klork steps beside her
<Klork> covered that..*smirks* shall we?
* HappyLittleMoron smiles wryly, nodding
* Al opens the portal*
* Keelin walks through, bow ready..
* Devnet does as well, flute ready...Diana silently right behind them...Kern walks with Rae, HLM with Klork...Al through last <G>
* Keelin waits on the other side, arrow drawn and ready for anything that might come out..
* Al closes it once they're through, that same dark forest on the other side*
* Keelin watches..her whole essence seems to glow in contrast to the forest, watching and ready for anything..
* Klork walks through, resting his arm over HLM's shoulders, brow furrowed
* HappyLittleMoron walks with him, on edge...Diana again fading into the background, seeming to move like fluid...her armor soaking in the essence of the place
* Shingami fades into shadow liek an apperition
* Myrae walks along side Ker'...eyes watching..like a deer in the forest*
* Kern holds Rae close as the watch, hmming softly, watching the trees and mmming softly* <q> The trees say he has moved to another base...
* Devnet blinks, arching a brow at him
* Keelin glances over...
<Keelin> tree talker...*furrows her brow, looking around and pointing* This direction...
* Kern nods* He's beefed up on guards too...*furrows his brows slightly* And took a large number of trees for something...
* Klork furrows his brow
<Klork> well..at least we have more people with us this time..
* Shingami reaches out of shadow... a ravin on her arm an it takes off
* Kern nods...*
<Shingami> a scout
* Myrae nods, watching*
* Keelin is walking in the same direction, watching the woods with a guarded expression
* Keelin pauses, then immediately fires an arrow into the woods...shortly after disappearing into the trees
* Devnet glows softly watching around, tensing at the same moment Kern cries a warning...cold, dark phantoms suddenly surrounding them
* Klork hovers over HLM, looking around...
<Klork> damn..
* Keelin pulls a dark elvin scout out, who's dead in her hand
* Keelin looks disgusted, pulling her arrow out and readying it once more..then blinks...
* HappyLittleMoron clenches her jaw
* Myrae blinks, curling close to Ker'*
* Diana's brows furrow and she raises her hands*
* Kern holds her close*
<Diana> <w> Illusions...there is a dark one here somewhere...*pushes the phantoms back*
* Keelin nods, brow furrowing eyes inspecting the woods...arrow drawn & ready
<Keelin> another one...somewhere..
* Shingami slashes at a few aperitions, sword making no sound in the air only when it hits
* Klork readies to pull his sword out...waiting until the right time to pull it out..
* Kern holds an arm around Rae...then smirks, looking into the woods, one of the trees suddenly shaking violently, the sound of someone hitting the ground and offing in suprise coming to them, then the sound of some large animal trying to get to them. The vegitation can be seen to move, seemingly on its own, fighting it*
* Keelin blinks, smirk growling slightly on her lips...disappearing into the woods to get around back of it...
* Shingami follows Keelin though the shadows jsut to see what it is
* Keelin crouches behind a fallen tree, eyes discerning the creature from the trees and fires at it, arrow flying like a bolt of light in the darkness
* there's a minor mage tangled upside down in the greenery, looking extremly upset and annoyed, crying out when hit by the arrow*
* Shingami wlaks over to the mage putting a hand over his /her mouth
<Keelin> He's hit in the leg, tree talker, I don't thinkhe'll go far..
* Keelin heads over, yanking the arrow out to ready it again
* Klork blinks, watching w/ his brow furrowed
* Kern nods, the trees letting him free*
<Shingami> should i put him out of hsi misery.. or jsut make him take a nap?
* He drops to the ground, looking at the two with terrified eyes*
* Keelin sighs, holding the arrow ready at his head
<Keelin> I think we can get some information first..and then you may do what you like, Shi.
* Myrae blinks, confused*
<Shingami> ok then mage... answer our questiosn and you take a nap.. otherwise its a dirt nap
* mage nods, eyes huge*
* Shingami removes her hand
* Keelin keeps the arrow ready
<Keelin> Al? you've any questions for this filth?
* Al heads over, and kneels down* Mage...has the child been born yet...?
* man nods jerkily* Y..yes...a...a girl...you won't get her!
* Klork listens to the air, brow furrowing slightly
* Keelin stretches the arrow more firmly
<Keelin> Not unless you inform us how...
* Klork listens, brow furrowed
<Man> I...I don't know...!
* Keelin presses the arrow head to his brow
* Devnet arches a brow lightly...
<Keelin> you'd best tell us all you know then.
* Man whimpers*
<Shingami> can i try something?
<Man> H...he...he's...aged her...two years....I...I...*swallows, sweat beading*
* Klork furrows his brow..glancing to the woods behind them....
<Keelin> and...?
<Man> I...I don't know...where she is...he...he's hiding her...there's a...camp down the trail...
* Diana arches a brow slightly...following Klork's gaze*
<Keelin> How many occupy the camp?
* Klork pulls his sword out slightly, eyes glowing as they watch..
<Man> Thh...thirty...fourty...
* Diana shifts towards that area of the woods..*
<Keelin> of what *grimaces, taking a few steps back* Klork, your sword!!!
* Man lunges up, only to be caught by the greenery again*
* Klork blinkblinks, immediately sheathing it...something else immediately runs by through the woods..
* HappyLittleMoron reaches back and gently pushes Klork's sword back into its sheeth...Diana, however, unsheething hers...her armor and sword no longer silver in color...but pitch black...
* Diana chases the thing...*
* Keelin rubs at her temples, glaring and going over to the guy..putting the arrow tip to aim between his legs
* Man squeeks*
<Keelin> of what race stay there, answer or lose your balls.
<Shingami> can i try soemthign keelin?
<Shingami> soemthing to amk him abt more cooperative?
<Man> A...all kinds...elvvven...redcaps...boggles...*looks at Shing, eyes scared*
* Klork watches..the creature breaking the woods and running across the path a few yards from them, heading back in on the other side..
<Keelin> certainly, Shi...but I'll keep my aim if it fails..no offense, but I always stay precautious..
* Diana frowns, then dashes to intercept the creature, dissapearing into mist and appearing in its path, sword drawn*
<Klork> we got company, guys...!
* Shingami leand close ot the man's ears lips moving but nothign comign forth... he hears a siren's song.. eon promising heavin to him if he cooeprates.. its like a truth drug
* The elvin man skids, glare igniting in his eyes, immediately drawing a sword to her*
* Man relaxes...*
* Keelin steps back, lowering the arrow, eyes watchful
* Diana smiles, eyes flashing a bright red as she licks her lips at him* Ohh...you want to play?
<Shingami> go a head and ask him anything
* The elf glares, slashing out at her* for such a creature of evil you have quite a bit of gall to fight me.
<Keelin> Where is Teirnan.
* Diana blocks, slipping her sword free of his to slice at his stomach* Ah...you have never heard the expression "Never judge a book by its cover", sir?
<Man> *lucid voice* Villiage...past the camp...
<Keelin> and the girl he hides..is she with him?
* Elf growls and lunges at her, slashing his sword diagonally from her hip towards her shoulder*
* Diana spins out of the way, arching a brow* You didn't, ne? What did you look at? *slices at his head with the same movement*
<Man> *lucid voice* ...no...she is at the nursery...in the castle four villiages down...
* Elf stumbles, getting hit across his cheek* egh! your soul, death walker..
<Shingami> how well is she guarded?
<Diana> My soul? What about it, elfie? *slices again at him, his neck this time*
<Man> Better than he himself...there is never less than five guards around her...
* Elf spins, getting sliced across the neck, knelt and holding his neck..*
* Klork listens, brow furrowed...
<Klork> ~~at least we know she lives..~
<Man> Elemental...sorcery...elven...bardic...
* HappyLittleMoron nods, biting her lip
* Keelin frowns
<Shingami> badguy doesnt mess aorund does he
<Keelin> Teirnan never does..he must've known Dev' would be with us..or he would not have acquired a bard to assist.
* Diana grins darkly, kneeling by him pushing him back* How does it feel to die at the hand of a death walker?
<Shingami> we stil yet might be abel to figure somethign out
<Shingami> any more questions for him?
* Elf tumbles, glare still on his face before he gurgles his last breath*
* Keelin looks to Al...having no more herself
* Al shakes her head*
<Keelin> None, shi.
* Diana whipes her sword free of blood on the Elf's clothing, joining the others on the path with a wicked grin*
* Shingami sings another song.. sleep and forget...
* Klork looks over
<Klork> another elf, Di?
* Myrae furrows her brow* is anybody wounded..?
* Diana nods* Hai...a dead one now...
* Klork nods..
<Klork> good.
* Man sleeps...going limp...arrow still in his leg*
* Keelin yanks the arrow out, putting it away.
<Keelin> hm..still useful.
* Diana smirks slightly at Kee, faiding into the shadows again*
* Devnet shakes his head lightly, keeping watch
<Shingami> i think this trip might be usign my voice more then i thought...
<Devnet> 'Tis a lovely one, dark angel..
* Keelin comes out of the woods, dusting off
<Keelin> we continue...we've a long walk ahead of us.
<Shingami> Thanks... oen of th eperks... a siren's voice fo ra soothin or terrorfying death...
<Shingami> *mutters* i jsut hope we dotn run into any bi gmonsters.. lastme i wa sona quesit was a blarog... i hate balrogs....
* Kern nods, keeping his arm and cloak around Rae*
* Devnet nods as Al steps into the path as well
* Devnet chuckles slightly stepping onto the path as well, motioning for Shin to follow
* Rae leans close, walking...*
* Shingami follows
* Keelin leads the group, arrow ready still, pausing and motioning for them to quiet when she sees the first village in sight..
* HappyLittleMoron nods silently, Diana still in the shadows, watching quietly
* Klork pulls HLM close, watching..
* Keelin looks around...
* HappyLittleMoron stays close to Klork, Kern holding Rae close
* Devnet and Al fan out...
<Keelin> <q> Teirnan is in the village after this camp...your daughter further on in a castle...we need to go around these without being caught..
* HappyLittleMoron nods quietly..
* Shingami disappears abck into the shadows
* Keelin crouches, watching...*{{Dev..any scouts where you are??}}
<Devnet> {{One...but he's passed out with his lover...*mental eye roll*}}
* Keelin chuckles quietly...* {{Al...? any scouts??}}
<Al> {{Two...you?}}
<Keelin> {{None...seems that Dev's path is the easiest, however..mine would lead us through the camp...}}
<Devnet> {{Works for me...I'll make sure these two stay asleep until we're all past...}}
<Keelin> {{works..}}
* Keelin motions back to the rest of the group for them to follow her..heading towards where Dev went..
* Klork follows, Rae still close to Ker'
* HappyLittleMoron nods...the rest following, minus Dev, of course
* Dev plays a very soft song on his flute, imitating bird song...the two sleeping soundly*
* Keelin stands guard by him, then heads forward for them to follow
* Klork heads passed, keeping his guard of his wife
* Myrae goes with as well, blinking at the two sleeping...*
* Devnet goes last...Kern close to Rae, protectivly, HLM staying close to Klork
* Keelin , eventually, gets to the other side of the village, looking around for any other scouts...
* Klork n' Myrae do as well
* HappyLittleMoron and the rest obviously do, too <G>
* there's one scout up ahead, his back to them*
* Keelin crouches, firing an arrow at his back
* scout goes down with a short cry*
* Keelin heads forward, another arrow ready..pulling the other arrow out and returning it to her case when she reaches him
* Klork makes a face...but stays watchful..
* Keelin glances over...
<Keelin> <w> we cannot leave any survivors from here on...Tiernan is too near...
* Kern nods, the body dropping to the ground, leaves bloodied* <w> There aren't any here.
* Keelin nods...then continues on..
* Devnet arches a brow as they continue on...
* Klork follows.
<Shingami> <w> how much farther?
* nightmare creatures seem to be just outside of their little circle...shadows moving out of the corner of the eye..*
<Keelin> <w> not much until the village..but we have to get to the girl further beyond that..
* Keelin watches, brows lifting as she looks around
<Keelin> <w> stay close together..
* Klork nods, pulling HLM close, Myrae curling to Ker'
* HappyLittleMoron stays close to Klork, chewing her lip lightly, Kern holding Rae close
* Shingami comes out of shadows beside Keelin
* Devnet plays a soft song...keeping the creatures far enough away from them to keep them from doing any damage...Diana seems to dissapear on and off to take care of the few seeming to threaten breaking the shield
* Keelin walks, seemingly relaxed..eyes however very watchful..
* Al is much the same, keeping the couples covered on the free side..*
* up ahead is what seems to be a caravan*
* Keelin continues walking, seeing it clearly
* looks like a band of trolls...dirty, smelly...typical troll*
* Keelin holds her hand up...
<Keelin> <w> we need to move off the path...now..
* HappyLittleMoron arches a brow...doing so...along with the others....
* Klork moves with..Myrae as well going w/ Ker
* Shingami does also
