Brave New Planes

[Endur]

The Cimmerian responds to the Angel,

"I would ask that you begin your quest against the Minions of Set in the land called Stygia, south of Shem and north of Kush. The land of Stygia is a black land, a desert filled with ruins from an earlier, more terrible time, when a race of Serpents ruled the land. Today it is ruled by the foul Priests of Set. None dare oppose the minions of Set in that terrible place."

The Cimmerian responds to the Angel,

"I would ask that you begin your quest against the Minions of Set in the land called Stygia, south of Shem and north of Kush. The land of Stygia is a black land, a desert filled with ruins from an earlier, more terrible time, when a race of Serpents ruled the land. Today it is ruled by the foul Priests of Set. None dare oppose the minions of Set in that terrible place."

"Very well. I shall cleanse Stygia of Set's taint. The land shall be pure within ten years; this I swear by the Crook and Flail." He speaks a word that echoes through the fiber of your beings, and a massive Gate appears; the Cimmerian recognizes the southern border of Shem. Abd-Ratep steps through, and as he does so, gleaming armor and a massive, two-handed flail appear on his person. He takes one long, deep breath of the first fresh air he has tasted in millenia, then he takes off as the Gate disappears.

Brystasia Purelove: Half-Nymph/Female (Avenger/Favored Soul/Heartwarder)

Brystasia breaths a silent sigh of relief and address the Cimmerian, “Hopefuly my gut feeling is wrong and Abd-Ratep is still the noble angel he once ways. Either way I’ll stand by your decision.” She gives an enchanting smile. “and hopefully you can forgive me as I never meant to insult you.”

 

[Endur]

The Cimmerian turns to Brystasia and says, "I didn't hear you speak any insults.

"Imprisonment is a punishment I would not inflict on anyone. Slay your enemies or make them pay compensation. But I have never imprisoned an enemy."

Brystasia thinks upon his words, From where he is I can guess there is truly no other noble option. She smiles at the Cimmerian, “That’s very noble of you’re my sire.”

She wraps her hands around one of his massive arms smiling at him, “Of course there are objects of beauty that need to be freed from this prison also. Will you help me in that task?”

The Cimmerian helps Brystasia carry whatever she wants.

A brief description of the objects of interest in this room:

One tapestry catches your eye immediately. Twelve feet in width, and depicting a titanic struggle between two armies of celestials, this piece is not made of fabric, but painted onto a woven mat of feathers, some as long as an arm. On its righthand side, another tapestry shows a fleet of ships, ranging from long, sleek drakkars to fat galleons, unloading onto a sandy beach, though the vessels do not lie in the soft surf, but hang in mid-air. A third portrays a desolate scene, the blackened ground littered with ash and bone. In the center of this withered landscape, a single flower is blooming. On the far wall, one tapestry shows a city of gossamer arches and vaulting spires, a glorious sunrise illuminating the bustling traffic. Across from this is an identical scene, but the towers have crumbled, the sun is replaced by a sickly moon, and the bustling traffic consists only of the restless dead. Between these two cityscapes is an image of two warriors. One wears gleaming golden plate, battling with a massive, slightly curved sword. His opponent's chainmail has been rent in several places, his shield is now dangling in shards from his forearm, and his sword has just been snapped at the hilt, yet only defiance burns in his eyes.

OOC: Any of you have Appraise?

Vilya isn't exactly thrilled when the Cimmerian releases the angel. When the angel leaves through the gate, she lets out a breath she hadn't realised holding.
When Brystasia and the Cimmerian start collecting valuables, the elf lets out an amused chuckle.

One doesn't need valuables on a desert, just edible food and water.

 

[Endur]

The Cimmerian does not have any idea whether these items have value or not, but since Brystasia asked for help, he will aid her in gathering the tapestries.

How do you intend to carry them? We are talking about seven tapestries (including the bloodied and cut one on the floor), each of which is seven feet in height and 6-12 feet across.
