Heart of Artifice: Part I--Engineered Enigma

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: There's also 600 Ravers XP / 4 = 150 each. But you need to rest. Tell you what, maybe the portal is a disconcerting experience that will allow Anvuss to level. I'm a nice sort. I'm going to hold off on time XP so you can get more. The longer I wait, the more you get. Why? Because your level will be higher when I multiply it by the months. Aren't I generous? )

ooc: I have faith, oh fearless leader. I just wanted to make sure if we *were* leveling at this point, poor Anvuss wouldn't be forgotten. Before we got sidetracked by xp, we were up to:

Kharas takes the Thelanium he got and inspect it, see if he seems to have teh same propriety than on Elysia's world.

 

[Rystil Arden]

*Kharas finds that the Thelanium does seem to have similar properties to the way it always has, including in Sharn, but the way he reacts to it has changed--Elysia's description that it doesn't 'sing to her' is a weird way to describe, but it is actually somewhat apt. Plans and ideas and improvements don't blaze through his head, and he doesn't feel the boundless confidence to build anything he can imagine at incredible speeds. He still thinks he could build something great with the Thelanium, but it will take time and careful thought.*

"It seems that the Thelanium have lost his... spontaneity." tells Kharas. "And as time is an issue, we should first go back to Elysia world. If I've been able to build a small construct, I suppose we could build these device, Anvuss.

I suggest me and Anvuss go back there, create the disguise device. After that, we go to Fnatsia, meet the leader who has the device the Baron create. From there, we will be able to find the four kids and Aethelus, as they all have a signature that will be detectable by the device. Once we found them all, we come back here and sent back safely Elysia to her father and close this portal for good...

And for Maximus, as long as he stay on his side of the portal and us on our side, I think it will be fine like that."

 

[Patlin]

"We should probably hold hands as we get on the machine, I don't seem to be able to operate it myself."

Anvuss is ready to go as soon as Kharas would like.

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Okey dokey!" Elysia agrees, "Just remember, Daddy told us that only the new signature of a recent dimensional distortion is detectable, which means it's like a race with a time limit or something--how cool is that!"

 

[Velmont]

"Not sure I find that cool, it will risk to expose that more than I thought. Young girl, take advantage of Elizabeth and this world. With that time distortion, i can't tell when we will be back. Before going, can I take you some Thelanium. I doubt my piece will eb enough to create to item to disguise us, and we might need to do something else on teh way if I have to meet otehr unforged or things like that."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Daddy said to give you anything you asked for, so sure, you can have the Thelanium, but can I at least keep my Kythrine bracelet? My Mommy and Daddy gave it to me as a gift, and it's my favouritest ever and it reminds me of them while I'm missing them."

 

[Velmont]

"Keep your bracelet." Kharas takes the Thelanium and split it in two. He gives back half of it to Elysa. "With my piece of Thelanium, and half of what you have, it will be fine. We will be able to find some. And you might need it another time. Who knows. And we are used to have none around." Kharas turns to Anvuss and take his ahnd and bring in on the device. "See you soon." And at that moment he really wish to find his way back to the otehr world and find those kids... alive and safe.

 

[Patlin]

Anvuss looks at Kharas passively, wondering if he intends to steal the girls trinket. The warforged has some vague notion that Kharas shouldn't, but he's unsure why he thinks so.

Edit: That was written before I saw Velmont's post.
