[GRIM TALES] Wulf Ratbane's SLAVELORDS of CYDONIA

[Fenris]

So are you waiting or not?

Damn the torpedoes! Full Speed Ahead.

 

[Wulf Ratbane]

Well, then-- and not for any particular reason, mind you-- I would like to get a better idea of where everyone is right now.

I guess Joshua, Rawley, and Haskins are all near the archway-- that is to say, nearer to the archway than the door.

Since it's 50 yards from the archway to the door, we're not talking an insignificant difference.

Where's everybody else?

 

[Hjorimir]

Bill is just within the chamber but off to the side from what he would consider the path of the blue archway; so say inside and a little to the right around 40 yards from the archway.

 

[nakia]

Teddy moves toward the archway, keeping Brigitta in his sight at all times. He wants to see if the big crystal is still in the niche.

"So, ah, you say dey went into dat thing?"

Teddy's glad Haskins thew the crate. He's getting tired of all this mysterious arcane crap. He's out of whiskey. And he hasn't punched anybody in at least a week. Dinsosaur's don't count. He's seriosuly considering just grabbing the stupid crystal, giving it to Birgitta, then getting the hell out of this valley.

 

[Wulf Ratbane]

Sorry, it's a little hard to see, but this is close to scale.

Is Brigitta where she wants to be before I update?

 

[ragboy]

OOC: Rawley's where he wants to be... Strangled...nice. And I is an editor.

 

[Old One]

Brigitta

[OOC: When Haskins throws the crate...Brigitta will move one intersection NW from where she is pictured...just in case it comes flying back out.]

Brigitta starts to scold Haskins for throwing the crate at the portal and stops...holding her breath and waiting to see what happens.

Thoughts race through her head. All signs point to her oppposite number and his cohorts having used the portal recently. What mysteries lie beyond the blue screen?

She mentally resolves to find out...provided the crate isn't destoryed...and starts moving towards the west edge of the portal.

~ OO

 

[Wulf Ratbane]

The crate struck the shimmering blue light in the center of the archway.

It hung there, for a moment, suspended or perhaps sinking slightly, as if it were falling into tar.

Suddenly, it was sucked wholly into the archway, and with a flash, it was gone.

 

[Fenris]

Haskins stands there puzzling a bit, not sure what it was that he was expecting. He then turns to Brigetta "Well, what in the bloody hell is this thing?"

 

[BryonD]

"Well Mam, we found what you're looking for. Mission accomplished, let's go home.

If we ain't done, then I'm thinking you need to tell us something we don't already know, 'lse someone needs to see 'bout where that crate's gone to.

Or we can just mill 'round right here and gawk."
