Dead Legends

A threat. How oddly comforting. That at least was familiar. She replies to the telepathic voice in the same manner, with a touch of amused menace in her mind's voice "I am looking at one who's called attention to herself. If I had intended harm she would no longer be singing. I do not kill without a reason, so do not give me one."

She turns her head to regard the arriving construct, measuring its capabilities with her gaze and remaining silent trough its exchange with the singer. It was obviously well made, similar in some way to the golems she had faced in the Five Sphere War, though different enough that she could not trace its origins. It seemed to be ancient and like most of its kind, to be bound heavily by Law. Not much to go on, besides details whose context had long since passed.

The singer on the other hand had already revealed much more about herself than either of the other two. She seemed remarkably knowlegeable on matters both ancient and obscure and, holding some religious devotion to the forces of magic, perhaps...

She let her thought be unfinished as she once again turned to regard yet more new arrivals. Guards. Mortal, unremarkable, easily dealt with. And yet... She was lost, alone with no knowlege of her surroundings or the events since her death which could have taken place yesterday or a million years ago. Slaughtering these guards might not be in her best interest. A smile crossed her lips at that thought, tinged with sadness. She truly was strange among her kind.
She answers, her voice a sibilant hiss. "That would be most unwise of you. Are you so blind that you cannot see our power? Do you not see what horrors your threats could cause? Will you sacrifice your men, your very world for your flawed perception of the Law, or will you let wiser minds judge our trespass?"

Kayla frowned - finding a descendant of a destroyed ancient civilizaation would be nigh impossible. And yet, could she really let this machine roam free? "The last known Predans died before the Empire, this many millenia later I cannot imagine you would find one who knew anything, or was worthy of your service. For all we know, their blood could have spread to many, or it could have died out completely." Her further speech is interupted by the arrival of the guards, and Shahaza's threatening of them.

"No, wait.. please, we mean you no harm." Kayla's eyes glanced at the surrounding Legends, wondering briefly if that was even true, or if she just hoped it was. "We know not how we came here or why, but as the lady says, we are powerful legends of bygone days. We wish to speak to your leader and discover what this place is, and how we have come to be here."

A little good-cop/Bad-cop perhaps? Diplomacy check to follow
Kayla will try to prevent combat, but If it should break out while I'm at work, she will attempt to seperate the fighters via wall of force.[/sblock]
 

Gazing through the darkness at his state, and finding his inventory of objects he carried in tact he nodded slightly to himself once and was about to set out to locate his betrayers when he heard it. The echo of an earthshaking roar traveled through the chasm. As he finally takes in his surrounding while turning toward the direction the roar came from, the vampire notices he isn't in the same chasm he was in before. Becoming invisible he move in that direction.

The cave entrance grows dark for a moment, where an invisible hand extends beyond the shadow of its entrance to make sure his spell is functioning properly in the bright sunlight beyond its shadowy borders. The 120ft globe of deep darkness rises slightly from the ground, moving swiftly toward the town at the bottom of hill. A very strange scene seems to be unfolding in the town square, as a collection of immensely varied being are squaring off against local guards, who are laughingly trying to arrest a pair of demonic generals, a construct of some kind, and a cute girl who is singing at them. An invisible eyebrow raises in amusement as the edge of darkness travels across the ground, coming to a stop mere inches from the two assemblies.

A figure appears in the middle of the darkness floating some fifteen feet off the ground. He bows slightly silouetting his long ears in the light behind the elf's form. "Oh please pay me no heed, and continue your... conversation. It is the most... interesting thing I've witnessed, since I was killed the second time."
 

Dizzy's mind shuts out that of those who had appeared around her. Trapped inside a tunnel of despair and anguish even the singing could not pierce the void in her heart. She had nothing. And yet there was nothing she could do about it. No use in laying on the ground moping about things she can't change. It was time for her to cheer herself up. She suddenly springs to her feet.

"I know what always makes me feel better!!!" She began to walk away without paying the guards any notice. "I'll go destroy something evil! That always cheers me up. I just hope theres something around here that can provide me with some sort of challenge."

If the guards confront her or try to stop her from walking away, she is simply going to teleport past them without acknowledging them and keep walking. [/sblock]

The guards were shaking at their knees, and almost jumped at the appearance of the flying newcomer into their midsts. When the devilish woman with the metalic skin and hellfire burning in her eyes suddenly jumped up and began walking away they scurried out of her path.

"WHAT ARE YOU FOOLS DOING!!!!" the fat bald yelled at his men. "STOP HER!" The guards seemed to have their nerves restored by the order, and a pack of them stepped into Dizzy's way. They were left blinking in confusion as she disappeared and reappeared behind them and kept walking. The man, obviously their leader, once again yelled out in his booming voice, "YOU WILL STOP NOW OR THERE WILL BE BLOOD!"
 

"The last known Predans died before the Empire, this many millenia later I cannot imagine you would find one who knew anything, or was worthy of your service. For all we know, their blood could have spread to many, or it could have died out completely."

"You are speculating," Omega replied unshakeably. "True assessment of facts is impossible here. Solution: Travel to site of Predas. Assess facts. Devise means by which to obtain legitimate directives. Navigational aid required."

With that the silvery thing turned to face the guard captain and finally addressed him directly.

"You are a native of this place. I require navigational aid to leave. Where can I obtain navigational aid?"
 

Dizzy ignored the threat of the guard's leader and kept walking for a few moments, until she suddenly froze. "Wait just one second here!" Vanishing once more, she reappeared back into the group of legends, staring directly at Shahaza.

"A Merilith? I call that a reasonable catch." She cracked her knuckles together and readied herself to do what she had been doing her entire life. What she was born to do. Slay the fiends of the lower planes. "Are you ready to meet your end, vile demon?"





Dizzy could tell at first glance that this was no ordinary Merilith however. It was wearing too much. She knew it would probably be better to observe the creature first before running in swinging.

Dizzy will once more ready an action to teleport away as she watches for Shahaza's reaction. [/sblock]

"Vile Demon, I have met my end already. Just like you." Her voice is hard with a hint of mockery. She continues speaking to the tainted one, her voice meant to be heard by those listening. "But why would you slay me for being so like you? Are you so at war with your own nature? If you are we have that in common too. You are lost here, cast adrift in time. Is your hatred for yourself you only solid ground?" She shakes her head in what could be pity.
"Is killing your only ambition? Then you are more vile and demonic than I."
 

Dizzy was concerned by the demon's supposed reluctance to fight her. They are deceptive beings, and this may be part of the creatures lastest plot. She decided to keep it talking in an attempt to discern its goals.

"Just like you? Don't make me laugh. My end could not have been anything like yours demon. I actually risk my life for things OTHER than personal gain. Is this concept confusing to you? It may surprise you to learn that beneath this wretched flesh, I am actually human. This form is in fact, quite a recent development. I became this way thanks to a CURSE!!! You believe I am at war with my nature? I had my nature stripped from me!!!"

Dizzy took a moment to regain her calm. "Now as for the killing, it is no ambition. I have been doing it all my life and trust me, I am damn good at it. What seperates me from the monsters? The only people who need fear me ARE the monsters."
 

The fat bald man looked like his head was going to explode with rage, the veins popping out of his forehead as if worms were attempting to burst from his skull.

"I WILL NOT BE IGNORED!!! YOU WILL CEASE THIS POINTLESS BANTER, SURRENDER TO US RIGHT NOW, AND BE BROUGHT PRESENTED TO OUR KING FOR JUSTICE! THIS IS YOUR LAST WARNING!"
