[QUOTE="simmo, post: 1399834, member: 9744"] The pompous NPC, i.e. the mayor did go ahead in his attempt to negotiate with the modrons. Unfortunately it was not successful and Haven is now looking to recruit a new mayor. I was glad to hear from Littleby's player that he would have tried to [i]magic jar[/i] the modron march, as I was not sure if it was something that he'd do. Unfortunately for him there may be some lasting consequences of trying to force his consciousness in to the mind of a modron. One side effect will be random moments of extreme lawfulness :) Randomling has been posting some of Serena's dreams at Randomlingshouse.com/forum and I encourage all players to submit their writings for inclusion in the story hour. [i][b]We Interrupt this Adventure[/b] to bring you the following visions by Serena Allman... [Note: this chapter was written by Randomling, who plays Serena Allman] [COLOR=Plum]Adrift in a Sea of Visions[/COLOR][/i] [i]The taste of something cold, and sweet, and unpleasant fills her mouth. Serena Allman opens her eyes. She's lying face up, and the sky is so far above her, the ground so flat and white around her, stretching to every side. She is alone. She sits down on her bed, grasping the Garden as she remembers her dream. She closes her eyes, rolls over, and is up on all fours before she looks again. Now the place she's in is hot, hotter than the Foundry, darker than Hell. She hears the thunderous sound of Caleb's hammer impacting with stone, and instantly she is on her feet and running, the wind sending her hair flying behind her. "NO," says Caleb's voice, "I DON'T THINK SO," and there is a loud cracking sound above her head. A shaft of light envelops her, and she looks up to see a jagged opening in the darkness above her head. She sees a large, shadowy shape - Caleb? - shambling towards her, but she cannot move. Everything goes white... She wakes up, a fluttering feeling low down in her stomach. She's curled up in a double bed, the sheets tangled with her feet, one hand under her head, the other lying across her swollen belly. She can hear Daniel's voice echoing from the next room. The next moment she's on her knees in a pool of bright light, shaking, crying, her belly flat again, her hands sore and, when she looks at them, bleeding. A presence moves above her. She looks up. Eliel is there, her wings beating gently but barely making a sound. The angel smiles, and somewhere nearby the wind sighs. There are no more tears to be shed. Serena shudders, get to her feet, and as Eliel melts away she begins to walk. She comes to the crystal garden, and Zakar appears beside her, placing one large paw gently on her shoulder. It is bright but cold, and she puts one hand over her friend's paw, feeling his warmth like a torch in a dark place. He turns, looks up, sniffs the air, and his paw twitches on her shoulder. "My lady," he growls, but she never hears his warning because there is a sinking feeling in her stomach and the garden disappears. For a brief moment, the face of Agar smiles a cold smile. She hears him speak, but not the words, or not all the words. When Agar speaks, he speaks in Nyon's soft low voice. She hears the phrase "need me", the word "converge". Then he meets her gaze. "yes," he says, and she falls again... [/i] More updates coming soon: Littleby starts a new business, Malkir meets an old friend. [/QUOTE]
