use</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">Still like the evercrawling night the new hallway was broken into darkness that appeared artificial,as they took their torch’s forth and made through from the broken doors about 250 ft.There the center of a four way junctured hall met with a grande disc feature on the ground,sembled of evil magic scribings and a strange multi faceted star in the center.Cold ghouls of past battles,and the annunciated powers of the creators’ frought with defense and a twisting of the real world into the realms of magic bled into their minds, just taking in the particular feature.The idea’s of greater unseen enemies was a grueling reality that had played a part in the attacks they had experienced so far,and the vice of warding creation was even more so taking the turn of their confidence to inner hope,or endurance from the undead that scavanged about Tethreciene.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“they have foreseen the need to ward off unwanten visitors,let us betray this layd to uselesness disc,and go further past it,un heeding of it’s warning”Alliyah stepped upon it and turned left to continue as the others smirked or let the trailed aspirations of their fearless leader make do of the perplexing magi-bond.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“I don’t know what it took for the demoness to answer our call,but if this hall is any more dangerous as I think it to be,best if we be carefull to avoid an unseen visitor”Morigin warned,making the second in place directly behind Alliyah the stormrider of doom.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">Kaizo unwarrentdly stopped after sending a super sniff when nearing a more run down area of the hallway,finding a strange odor,of none too familiar summoned beasts,devils, maybe undead demons,and a triffle pinch of magical strein,as though they were made bettered,or perhaps stronger by that which had taken them into the area.Xiena felt a change of the atmosphere as well,and scince following lastly she waited next to the orc as the presumptions began to make a voicing.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“dear,dear,there are more than old and feared enemies within the reaches of our quest now,I can smell newly arrived horrors,feeding on the magic’s power that placed them here”the orc bellowed and preffered a statement to the unsuspecting others.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“hmmm,yes let me cast a weave of seeing,a look into the magics that spun this strange sense you have orc friend,my spell will let us know just what is waiting our killing triumph over their evil bodies”Xiena hesitated then spoke assured that she could cast this looking spell through the walls nearest to them.With a pinch of fine smelling herbs,instantly integrated into her hand,the air flew into a mist-then broke into dancing droplets of voilet suffuge,herb,and smoken like mist-surging through the walls,they opened the clerics mind,and delved deeper into her subconcious almost as if no presense in the material world was needed,and strew faint images of all that passed near them.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">A wall of saturated,water decayed moss,blemishes eschew ,from powders of regents,scales burnt into mighty torrents,dashing reflections of blood stained humongulous chains-still attached to the walls,corpses feathered away by an unkown energy from skeletons to fetal bits of churned mulches,and lastly a great burning searing and contained energy-a portal,the frightfull purple strewn sides of the altar used scattering evils course from the force of the magic that had taken beasts through to the room.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“so there are indeed some more troubles to be had,scince I’m making the moves groove,I’ll say we should see if the nastys be where the treaure be-“with that Alliyah kicked open the door nearest to them,and they followed,wordless,taking weapons and drafting their course of battle’s empowerment to it’s hightened state.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">The first room was layde with the wall shackles as had been observed by Xiena and she went to one to touch it,hoping for another insight,but was mirked into a dashing blackness that told the stories of sights she’d rather not look into and they continued to the next door and room.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“we are near the foes,the next room,be set to attack”Xiena warned as Alliyah bust open the door and they looked upon the sight of more wretched undead demons,glowing with sprited of golden fright that showed a strengthened state,one that may cause more trouble than their previous battle’s.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“rrgrh,enemies of the troll army,you have desecrated the halls of summoning,and for this you shall be killed,we are twice the strength of any who have gaurded the way,there shall be no return”one of the 4 demons sprawled forth,in anger as a weapon integrated into it’s hands and two others set to cast spells.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">Xiena used her presight with good course,and cast a defense spell before the first attack could be made,slaming the two spell casting foe’s against the back wall and disrupting their focus to demonolgy imbibed arcana.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“foolish mortals,you think a simple cleric can destroy our powers with a childish spell,again Metroh and Gelltohr!!!fire these puny humans and their beast to death’s hellish tomb!!!”the axe wielding one stated,as it jump flew at Alliyah and she blocked the first swipe,and side stepping kicked it’s back making it falter and trip.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">Kiazo was quickly onto the foolish enemy,and swiping with brutral strength,clipped of an entire section of one wing,feining for the body but lunging in as the creature spun away fast enough to do that much.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“Morigin strike them with ice,as will I use the new ring,and they will know the froughtless ease in whitch demons can suffer a fate worse than their own hellish creations”Xiena explained,immediately calling the element vortex into being,and sending it ripping into the demon,however it had cast it’s spell first-and she suffered the attack of twenty mini-knifes hewn with lava,puncturing her robe,and flesh,and falling away leaving 10 or so bleeding cratches-.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">The ice flurry did do a great deal of damage however,as the demon roiled to break free,it eventually spun about a few times with the attacking element,and as a final curse the elf’s spell blasted each of the 2 demons,the second just able to cast a mist of black poisenous spellwork before being striken.They cried in pain,and the first fell to the floor,as Alliyah and Kiazo attacked and dueled with the other two.But soon the poisen burst through the lungs and into the inner body of the party,and the demons remained uneffected.Limping as if to make a kill the two ice pounded monsters,lashed with their claws,as Morigin and Xiena stepped back,and instinctively the members knew that they must unite,at least back to back,in staggering dither in order to each receive the healing work of Xiena’s poisen curing might.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“I fear we’re not to be had,funny undead brutes,the legends of Athiena have arrived to seal you’re fate”as such was the response from Kiazo as quickly the restoring spell washed away all their wounds and poisen,and 1 demon met it’s match as Morigin ripped it’s belly open with a lateral slash and Alliyah stabbed it’s eye,making it jump from the socket and roll across the floor before the corpse even fell to the ground.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">The game of deftly claws and swords went on for several divies in each’s direction,as finally another demon spell was cast by one that hadn’t,taking them off guard.As Morigin switched attention to the firey makings about to fly from the foe’s hand,he dived to the side and avoided the entire blast of undead might.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“golden glamour of striking!!”the elf called,as suddenly they were all swathed with the energy,but the foes striken in damaging straffs writhed for several seconds afterwards,unable to recover,and Kiazo and Alliyah dipatched another.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">The two demons were in fear at this time,and started back stepping their way to the portal,but Xiena would have none of it.Utilizing a yet proclaimed talent,she seethed the air about the two demons,and their golden light faded away,and they looked less a threat,their arms shaggy from decay,and vicious growls replaced with stoopers of diconcertment.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“good work,I don’t know what was done but they are done for now!”Alliyah spoke quickly as she took a forward attacking flay at one unsuspecting monster,as it just blocked the first few slashes,but missed the 5th round about trick stab,and lost it’s strange glumph of weird un-real guts onto the floor,and fell to it’s knees.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“nooo,have pity for a creature of slavery,protecting that whitch is ritcheous you must understand,there can be no-“it spoke in a sarcastic attitude,and Alliyah made of it as she had the entire time,and cut across the neck sending a nap severed death to the pleading indignity.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">The final monster,was harrased with two on one till it lost,and lay dead next to the others,the teleport alter,faltering then finally flickering from it’s alivened state,dying with the poorly matched gaurdians,who learned the truth of Athiena’s venturesome questers.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“the broken altar is a blessing,the powers that keep unwanten vistors away from the armoury is broken,there is a hidden door,on the far wall,my seeing eye has shown it to me”Xiena proclaimed,as they sheathed their slaying swords,and refurled their sleeves and refounded the sense of acclaim for the next step,following her to the wall;and after several attempts pushing open an unseen wall door.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“the armoury!,ha haaa,simple as the first task of killing the strange mist so will be the first items brought to our grasp,some place about the walls,as written of,look closely and don’t stop-we are on fate’s colored rainbow,and no one shall stop us now”Alliyah spoke austentaciously of the grandeur for their making the task nearly complete,and they buffed against the walls,searching,pressing,sniffing,affecting,pushing,monotonosly wrenching in determination,untill one of the group yelled in glee.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“yes,the cubby!!the bracelets I have them !!!they are found!”Alliyah was the maker of the hour for this.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“what’s to be done now,we daren’t wear them,…unless we can be certain our strength is enough to take on a horde of the type of foes we’ve recently encountered”Xiena stated,as Alliyah held them for the others to see,all 4 of them.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">They looked to be silver,with the tarnish of withering,and smears of perhaps even blood,scattered across the markings that were runic casted features,no doubt.As she picked one for herself stormrider,felt an insurgence,the gorrent oppresion of a door to the abyss was pounding at the weave work entailed of the item,and as she thought about this it began to shed a glow of energy,and she quickly set it back onto the cloth,and wrapped the cloth around them.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“well,we are not done with our intentions to begin with,maybe by then the best way to be sure what needs to be done will be of our avail,with knowledge…and strength”she stated and Morigin took it,and placed it in the pack.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">They returned to the first hall,and continued a new direction,for insight that surely the ward they had passed may be a feature that was derrived for more than the armoury,and when they reached a door they paused and looked upon it.It was wrapped with vines crawling from the inside,and strangely four pull rings of led were set in the center perfectly spaced,and above that two golden blanched painting like snakes etched an x,with ten daggers bordering iether side.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“hmmm,worship of the serpant….though I fear the daggers such as this I know of were made by the troll army sorcerers,and ment that all who passed shall be subjected to torment…or a mind purge insuring allegiance.”Kizao foretold of the interests,and what they may expect if they opened the door,and Alliyah looked to them,and finally took her sword,nodded once,and heaved to pull the door open.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">The snap of the broken closure,made a dust flotilla smiff the air,and creeking on the hinges the door fell open into the hall,breaking to on one side,not a doable feature any more.The vinery was leading across the ground to a dirt mound in the back of the 40 ft sqaure room,and there a series of different coloured flowers,were in ultimate bloom,alive and well kept with no light or water seamingly available.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“this is a dangerous plant I fear-it thrives with no sustenence….i don’t recognize by what magic it is however”Morigin,now took weapon as well,and followed as they made to the flowers themselves.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">The vinery began to move and tether together-as they set for a sudden attack by the now animated agriculture from the unknown,and it made a little pad,as the flowers moved to form a perimter 1 ft circle on this.The air made a fizzling display of multi speckled dusts,and a lite sound,and there as if a perfect placate,a very small flower pixie female in golden skin exposing cut gown,and with a small orb revealed herself,from a shadow,to an ethereal presense to finally a physical one.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">Meanwhile at the Semchaynis’s chamber-she had begun watching them again,after finding a channel block from her ability for a while when they met with the demon charging portal.The image floated perfectly within the visioning item,nearly as if real right there before her in her very hand.She now had a beast with her,an Italiasthreiyn that brambled forth,and got close enough to look for himself,growling at the image of the cute little pixie.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“rrgh….what of pixie magic in my hieghness fine dungeon…there shall be none of that,I will go if you command it and slay the useless-“</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“enough!!fool,of course you will have plenty of slaying to do,when I am done with these scavenger weaklings metting through the unwanted muck,but untill then why don’t you go make some torch’s,or fill a cauldren with water-!!”she retorted as realizing the pixie was about to speak.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">The creature,looked away as if uninterested,though knew it must obey the hieghness’s wishes,and quickly galloped from the room,jumping over the skeleton pile,and making towards the place it knew had some…such as it is…cauldrens.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“yes…yes..reveal to me the secrets of unlocking the controlling arcana that I know is hidden within my precious realm of undead”…..</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“there you are…of course I could have just said hello at the front entrance but that might have made you disbelieve me….a fortune seeker is one of glamorous means…and dirty hands…and treatcherous fiends….now you can listen to me.yes-no?”the pretty short haired foofy said,making motions as she spoke.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“I am Alliyah stormrider of doom,and we are with questions for thee if that is what you ment”</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“well,no-but you mean the silver tubs you got,from the armougey…old,and dying,like those they summon are,if you used them they might bring a few,but you’d be just as smart to destroy them…by magical means of course,otherwise the curse might open onto any random silver item made from the same vein as those were crafted from”</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“funny,you have a way with being smarter than those may take you for…what then is the implicitly important message you have for us”Morigin now stepped in and got buff and goated to speak with the phenomena.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">“now then,within the final level of this place a mysterious item is hidden and …laced!it’s eyes are surely of ice but it’s mind is far greater then mice….what furry it unleashes was once enough to kill a thousand warriors and burn away the bridges,from the material world to the alternate planes,those who see it may surely define fear and death in itself,those who take it must be pure and defiant-such as Morigin the elf…but whence you have taken this task you must complete every vision it reveals to the last,be it stormriding with chaotic wyrms,or busting sappy cavaliars with gouty smiles and too much rum,take now this silver ring,for warn us of you’re path with those who will fiend once taken this item is,and begin the journey to absolve this from the cursor of it’s orginal makings,god’s of the abyss”with that she dissappeared,and left a silver ring,and the vines moved away to normal,mundane looks,and the flowers began to wilt,and die untill the were browned crumples of fluff.</span></p></blockquote><p></p>

The first room was layde with the wall shackles as had been observed by Xiena and she went to one to touch it,hoping for another insight,but was mirked into a dashing blackness that told the stories of sights she’d rather not look into and they continued to the next door and room. “we are near the foes,the next room,be set to attack”Xiena warned as Alliyah bust open the door and they looked upon the sight of more wretched undead demons,glowing with sprited of golden fright that showed a strengthened state,one that may cause more trouble than their previous battle’s. “rrgrh,enemies of the troll army,you have desecrated the halls of summoning,and for this you shall be killed,we are twice the strength of any who have gaurded the way,there shall be no return”one of the 4 demons sprawled forth,in anger as a weapon integrated into it’s hands and two others set to cast spells. Xiena used her presight with good course,and cast a defense spell before the first attack could be made,slaming the two spell casting foe’s against the back wall and disrupting their focus to demonolgy imbibed arcana. “foolish mortals,you think a simple cleric can destroy our powers with a childish spell,again Metroh and Gelltohr!!!fire these puny humans and their beast to death’s hellish tomb!!!”the axe wielding one stated,as it jump flew at Alliyah and she blocked the first swipe,and side stepping kicked it’s back making it falter and trip. Kiazo was quickly onto the foolish enemy,and swiping with brutral strength,clipped of an entire section of one wing,feining for the body but lunging in as the creature spun away fast enough to do that much. “Morigin strike them with ice,as will I use the new ring,and they will know the froughtless ease in whitch demons can suffer a fate worse than their own hellish creations”Xiena explained,immediately calling the element vortex into being,and sending it ripping into the demon,however it had cast it’s spell first-and she suffered the attack of twenty mini-knifes hewn with lava,puncturing her robe,and flesh,and falling away leaving 10 or so bleeding cratches-. The ice flurry did do a great deal of damage however,as the demon roiled to break free,it eventually spun about a few times with the attacking element,and as a final curse the elf’s spell blasted each of the 2 demons,the second just able to cast a mist of black poisenous spellwork before being striken.They cried in pain,and the first fell to the floor,as Alliyah and Kiazo attacked and dueled with the other two.But soon the poisen burst through the lungs and into the inner body of the party,and the demons remained uneffected.Limping as if to make a kill the two ice pounded monsters,lashed with their claws,as Morigin and Xiena stepped back,and instinctively the members knew that they must unite,at least back to back,in staggering dither in order to each receive the healing work of Xiena’s poisen curing might. “I fear we’re not to be had,funny undead brutes,the legends of Athiena have arrived to seal you’re fate”as such was the response from Kiazo as quickly the restoring spell washed away all their wounds and poisen,and 1 demon met it’s match as Morigin ripped it’s belly open with a lateral slash and Alliyah stabbed it’s eye,making it jump from the socket and roll across the floor before the corpse even fell to the ground. The game of deftly claws and swords went on for several divies in each’s direction,as finally another demon spell was cast by one that hadn’t,taking them off guard.As Morigin switched attention to the firey makings about to fly from the foe’s hand,he dived to the side and avoided the entire blast of undead might. “golden glamour of striking!!”the elf called,as suddenly they were all swathed with the energy,but the foes striken in damaging straffs writhed for several seconds afterwards,unable to recover,and Kiazo and Alliyah dipatched another. The two demons were in fear at this time,and started back stepping their way to the portal,but Xiena would have none of it.Utilizing a yet proclaimed talent,she seethed the air about the two demons,and their golden light faded away,and they looked less a threat,their arms shaggy from decay,and vicious growls replaced with stoopers of diconcertment. “good work,I don’t know what was done but they are done for now!”Alliyah spoke quickly as she took a forward attacking flay at one unsuspecting monster,as it just blocked the first few slashes,but missed the 5th round about trick stab,and lost it’s strange glumph of weird un-real guts onto the floor,and fell to it’s knees. “nooo,have pity for a creature of slavery,protecting that whitch is ritcheous you must understand,there can be no-“it spoke in a sarcastic attitude,and Alliyah made of it as she had the entire time,and cut across the neck sending a nap severed death to the pleading indignity. The final monster,was harrased with two on one till it lost,and lay dead next to the others,the teleport alter,faltering then finally flickering from it’s alivened state,dying with the poorly matched gaurdians,who learned the truth of Athiena’s venturesome questers. “the broken altar is a blessing,the powers that keep unwanten vistors away from the armoury is broken,there is a hidden door,on the far wall,my seeing eye has shown it to me”Xiena proclaimed,as they sheathed their slaying swords,and refurled their sleeves and refounded the sense of acclaim for the next step,following her to the wall;and after several attempts pushing open an unseen wall door. “the armoury!,ha haaa,simple as the first task of killing the strange mist so will be the first items brought to our grasp,some place about the walls,as written of,look closely and don’t stop-we are on fate’s colored rainbow,and no one shall stop us now”Alliyah spoke austentaciously of the grandeur for their making the task nearly complete,and they buffed against the walls,searching,pressing,sniffing,affecting,pushing,monotonosly wrenching in determination,untill one of the group yelled in glee. “yes,the cubby!!the bracelets I have them !!!they are found!”Alliyah was the maker of the hour for this. “what’s to be done now,we daren’t wear them,…unless we can be certain our strength is enough to take on a horde of the type of foes we’ve recently encountered”Xiena stated,as Alliyah held them for the others to see,all 4 of them. They looked to be silver,with the tarnish of withering,and smears of perhaps even blood,scattered across the markings that were runic casted features,no doubt.As she picked one for herself stormrider,felt an insurgence,the gorrent oppresion of a door to the abyss was pounding at the weave work entailed of the item,and as she thought about this it began to shed a glow of energy,and she quickly set it back onto the cloth,and wrapped the cloth around them. “well,we are not done with our intentions to begin with,maybe by then the best way to be sure what needs to be done will be of our avail,with knowledge…and strength”she stated and Morigin took it,and placed it in the pack. They returned to the first hall,and continued a new direction,for insight that surely the ward they had passed may be a feature that was derrived for more than the armoury,and when they reached a door they paused and looked upon it.It was wrapped with vines crawling from the inside,and strangely four pull rings of led were set in the center perfectly spaced,and above that two golden blanched painting like snakes etched an x,with ten daggers bordering iether side. “hmmm,worship of the serpant….though I fear the daggers such as this I know of were made by the troll army sorcerers,and ment that all who passed shall be subjected to torment…or a mind purge insuring allegiance.”Kizao foretold of the interests,and what they may expect if they opened the door,and Alliyah looked to them,and finally took her sword,nodded once,and heaved to pull the door open. The snap of the broken closure,made a dust flotilla smiff the air,and creeking on the hinges the door fell open into the hall,breaking to on one side,not a doable feature any more.The vinery was leading across the ground to a dirt mound in the back of the 40 ft sqaure room,and there a series of different coloured flowers,were in ultimate bloom,alive and well kept with no light or water seamingly available. “this is a dangerous plant I fear-it thrives with no sustenence….i don’t recognize by what magic it is however”Morigin,now took weapon as well,and followed as they made to the flowers themselves. The vinery began to move and tether together-as they set for a sudden attack by the now animated agriculture from the unknown,and it made a little pad,as the flowers moved to form a perimter 1 ft circle on this.The air made a fizzling display of multi speckled dusts,and a lite sound,and there as if a perfect placate,a very small flower pixie female in golden skin exposing cut gown,and with a small orb revealed herself,from a shadow,to an ethereal presense to finally a physical one. Meanwhile at the Semchaynis’s chamber-she had begun watching them again,after finding a channel block from her ability for a while when they met with the demon charging portal.The image floated perfectly within the visioning item,nearly as if real right there before her in her very hand.She now had a beast with her,an Italiasthreiyn that brambled forth,and got close enough to look for himself,growling at the image of the cute little pixie. “rrgh….what of pixie magic in my hieghness fine dungeon…there shall be none of that,I will go if you command it and slay the useless-“ “enough!!fool,of course you will have plenty of slaying to do,when I am done with these scavenger weaklings metting through the unwanted muck,but untill then why don’t you go make some torch’s,or fill a cauldren with water-!!”she retorted as realizing the pixie was about to speak. The creature,looked away as if uninterested,though knew it must obey the hieghness’s wishes,and quickly galloped from the room,jumping over the skeleton pile,and making towards the place it knew had some…such as it is…cauldrens. “yes…yes..reveal to me the secrets of unlocking the controlling arcana that I know is hidden within my precious realm of undead”….. “there you are…of course I could have just said hello at the front entrance but that might have made you disbelieve me….a fortune seeker is one of glamorous means…and dirty hands…and treatcherous fiends….now you can listen to me.yes-no?”the pretty short haired foofy said,making motions as she spoke. “I am Alliyah stormrider of doom,and we are with questions for thee if that is what you ment” “well,no-but you mean the silver tubs you got,from the armougey…old,and dying,like those they summon are,if you used them they might bring a few,but you’d be just as smart to destroy them…by magical means of course,otherwise the curse might open onto any random silver item made from the same vein as those were crafted from” “funny,you have a way with being smarter than those may take you for…what then is the implicitly important message you have for us”Morigin now stepped in and got buff and goated to speak with the phenomena. “now then,within the final level of this place a mysterious item is hidden and …laced!it’s eyes are surely of ice but it’s mind is far greater then mice….what furry it unleashes was once enough to kill a thousand warriors and burn away the bridges,from the material world to the alternate planes,those who see it may surely define fear and death in itself,those who take it must be pure and defiant-such as Morigin the elf…but whence you have taken this task you must complete every vision it reveals to the last,be it stormriding with chaotic wyrms,or busting sappy cavaliars with gouty smiles and too much rum,take now this silver ring,for warn us of you’re path with those who will fiend once taken this item is,and begin the journey to absolve this from the cursor of it’s orginal makings,god’s of the abyss”with that she dissappeared,and left a silver ring,and the vines moved away to normal,mundane looks,and the flowers began to wilt,and die untill the were browned crumples of fluff.[/FONT] [/QUOTE]
