[QUOTE="the Jester, post: 781477, member: 1210"] [b]Decision[/b] The winds howl around them like mad beasts as the female angel awaits their answer: Zeebo's true resurrection for one of two powerful weapons in the party. There's no way the party can even hear themselves shout over the winds. Grit blows in their faces, and with an aching glance they look at Zeebo's corpse. There's telepathy involved, of course, so Lester answers that way. [i]Oh, man, I like the Mayor,[/i] he sends, [i]but I [/i]love[i] my magic items. I'm sorry, Zeebo- I can't do it![/i] "Good," mutters Felix Optima Maxima. Sheva shakes her head as well. They can get him back at no cost; she'll not give up a weapon sacred to Coila to this creature. With a shrug, the angelic female backs away. Her eyes are like sapphires, her hair dark and silky. [i]Very well. You make a mistake.[/i] And with that, she disappears in a shimmer of violet color. [i]Well,[/i] Sheva sends to Lester through the magical telepathic link Orbius had cast, [i]let's plane shift home.[/i] "Wait a sec!" Lester simultaneously shouts and cries telepathically. "We have to go back to Polsoon first and let him know what's happened!" Sheva scowls, and she and Angelfire try to dissuade him. The argument lasts for almost ten minutes before they finally give in. "Come on," says Lester, "he didn't even get to come and help kill this Ahhl'Ahhh guy, we have to at least let him know it's done." The party teleports back to Polsoon, and Lester tells the earth elemental that their task is done. With that the elemental thanks the party (in Terran- only Lester understands it) and vanishes back to its home plane. Then the party [i]plane shifts[/i] home, aiming for the Silver City, on the south coast of Tirchond. As is wont to happen with [i]plane shift[/i], however, the party end up some distance from where they want to be- and this time, they're at sea. There's a raging storm, and various party members start having a variety of stormy-ocean related problems. For a few moments it seems that some of the more heavily-armored folks might be in trouble, but Angelfire is strong enough (given magical and psionic enhancements) that he can swim for a little while despite his gear, and once Horbin uses one of his thought spells to create a [i]solipsism[/i] of a boat out of sheer belief that it's there, the party is in pretty good shape. Of course, they don't really know where they are. "Well, we could teleport," Angelfire suggests to Orbius. He's cold and wet, and despite having a certain magical protection from cold, it's very uncomfortable due to his fiery nature. "Hey look!" shouts Horbin, standing up and pointing into the distance. The party peers in the direction he's indicating. The rain and clouds make visibility poor, but they can see what appears to be a few masts in the distance. "Let's go see who that is," Sheva says, and the party agrees. And they start rowing towards the Chaos Fleet. [i][b]Next Time:[/b][/i][b][/b] The Chaos Fleet! [/QUOTE]
