EXEXCRUCIATION - a Noblilis PbP

[sophist]

Your prisoner looks a bit puzzled at that but answers with only a little hesitation: "Yes."

 

[Jdvn1]

"Like I said, technology is allowed here." David produces a pen in his hand and places it in Parmendines' shirt pocket.

Divination to know the pen that was dropped, creation to make a new one.

Once, anything to add? Comments? Actions? I'm done with the guy, so I'm okay with letting him to back.

 

[sophist]

As you set Parmendines free (with his new pen), he runs off to Derr (or you let him through Once's gate before it closes - any at this level of power I let it stay open for a maximum of five days - once's domain level). It should be pretty easy to to spy on him. Wanna take the time? Tracing the developments you set in motion might take one to three whole days, since word needs to get around. Wanna take the time?

ooc: I think we have other things to do in that time. I still want to see Key's and Innocence's castles, and maybe Empty's (if there's anything to do there), and then if there's still time I have a couple more errands. I'll do periodic Divinations to see how it's going, though.

OOC: so we will have to wait for the other players

Alyra Tannenbaum, Marchessa of Innocence

Alyra's eyes widen as she realizes the implications of Gwynneth's request, and she reaches out a hand, placing it upon the other girl's abdomen.

Lesser Divination of Innocence to divine if the infant's innocent soul exists; if that doesn't work, spend 2 MP on a Realm Lesser Divination to determine if a soul exists.

"I am to take it," says Innocence with some apprehension, "that my predecessor did this sort of thing all the time?" She pulls her hand back, and runs it through her hair, sighing. "I see that I have more to find out than I've bargained for..."

I'll be off to see Parcival pretty soon, and then consult with Chivalry and Keys. Any chance we can poke the other players to see if they're still alive?

 

[Charles Rampant]

Once, having observed all the chatter, will suggest that they go and meet up with the others.

Alyra:
< , well done puuting the ball back in my court to think about when the soul connects with the body. Delaying the answer , I simply rule the the "maiden" is pregnant long enough for it to happen>
The divination of innocence works. You sense a faint but very pure innocence in her belly. Gwynneth says:"Our late Lady, did it once, a few years ago for Medea here." SHe points to an elder maiden in her thirties, who hides her feeling of shame well. "Lady Magret later told what happen to our Lord of Chivarlry who cast the man out. But I feel no such need for revenge. Please spare him, Mylady." You sense guilt and regret and even some love in Gynneth.

Once+David:
Trough Edward you will have no difficulty finding the others.

Simon:
Where are you now after the conversation with the Troubadour?

 

[sophist]

As Alyra thinks hard what to do, an uneasy silence creeps into the room. You feel a mixture of anticipation and some fear from Gwynneth.
Edward bows slightly:"Does Mylady wish to see the kight now?" You feel he thinks to help you by this comment, but at this time he gets glowering looks from the maidens, paticularly the matron.

 

[Lichtenhart]

Simon:
"They are indeed discontent. I never took enough time to study them. They struck me as harmless weirdos getting their kicks from electric light bulbs." Rembrech shudders.
"As for magic, you should ask old Bertrand. He lives at the rim of Derr. It's the last house towards your castle."

"Thank you. I'll go see him soon. Actually... I may need your help with that. Gah... so many riddles all at once. I have to go now. But thank you Rembrech, this little talk helped me shed some light."
Simon storms out of the Troubadour's room, calling out loud for Edward.
"Edward? I need to see King David. Immediately."
As he finds him and as many of his brethern he can muster, he begins speaking very quickly: "Well, not everyone here in the city loved the former nobles, there are some who resented the laws against technology and continue to use it in secret, and they wear jackets and ties in secret, and probably our "stranger" ahas something to do with them, we should find them and ask them, and I don't think we should forbid technology that much, and I know where someone who knows a lot about magic lives, it's near my castle, and maybe he knows how we could defend ourselves or at least avoid those weird stones, and I think we should go and talk with him too, and while we're there see the Palace of Keys too. What do you think?" he asks finally, as if he had been perfectly clear.

OOC: Well, you already know much more than me about the Union, but Simon had to tell you anyway.
