[QUOTE="Edena_of_Neith, post: 1967736, member: 2020"] THE WILL OF ECLAVDRA She goes to the Great City. She goes to Greater Nyrond. It doesn't matter if it's dangerous. It doesn't matter what is said or unsaid. If she is opposed, she kills any who stand in her way. She goes to the stricken drow. She goes to every hospital they are in. She goes to every cave and cavern they lay in. She goes to every part of the Great City they suffer in. She acts like someone possessed. She acts like someone driven beyond all madness. She acts like someone gifted with an insight that drives her beyond all endurance. She does not stop. She does not stop, even though people would pile up on her in heaps: she hurls them aside with magic, and continues. She bores her will, her might, her image, into the minds of those drow who are stricken, who are suffering Withdrawal, who are tettering on the brink between good, evil, and madness. She is like an adamantite pillar, glowing white with heat, a furious blast of the Light of good, of determination, of fixated purpose. She speaks to her people, over and over and over. By the hundreds. By the thousands. By the tens of thousands. She does not stop. She goes from drow to drow, and she rams her way into their minds, and she forces them to listen to her, and her demand to them is clear, unequivacable, and the immensity of that demand is backed up by all her furious determination, her infuriated desire to triumph and survive against what she has seen, her savage embrace of the Light, her primordial drow nature - violent and savage - turned towards a single purpose. If Iuz was nice enough (chuckles) to give back the Regalia of Lordly Might to Eclavdra, what she does is heightened in power by about 10 fold. She speaks to her stricken people, who are in Withdrawal, one by one: LET THE LIGHT COME WITHIN YOU. LET THE LIGHT BURN YOU, SAVAGE AND PRIMORDIAL IN IT'S FURY, UNTIL IT BURNS OUT THE EVIL. LET IT BURN OUT THE EVIL LIKE A HOT IRON SUNK DEEP INTO YOUR FLESH BURNS AWAY WOUNDS! SCREAM IN IT'S PAIN, AND BE DEVOURED BY IT'S MIGHT, AND LET IT SWEEP YOU AWAY ... AND IN IT'S FIRES BE REBORN! SCREAM. SCREAM! SCREAM!!! AND THEN LAUGH. FOR YOU ... WILL ... LAUGH. AS THE DARKNESS IS BURNED AWAY, THE LIGHT WILL ENFOLD YOU, THE LIGHT WILL BRING SAVAGE PLEASURE AND DELIGHT AND VIOLENT TRIUMPH ... AND YOU WILL LAUGH. THE LAUGHTER OF THE DROW WILL SHAKE THE CITY, SHAKE THE OERTH, SHAKE THE VERY FOUNDATIONS OF THE COSMOS!!! I AM ECLAVDRA, AND YOU SHALL OBEY ME!!! I COMMAND YOU TO BURN, UNTIL YOU BURN AWAY! AND ARE REBORN. REBORN, IN THE LIGHT! DEFY ME AND DIE! DEFY ME AND I CURSE YOU, AND I CAST YOU OUT OF THE DROW. I CAST YOU INTO THE DEEPEST PIT OF PRIMORDIAL FIRE, YOU UNGRATEFUL TRAITOR, YOU WRETCHED WORM, LOWER THAN THE LOWEST SLIME THAT EVER SLITHERED ON OERTH BEFORE THE SUN EVER ROSE ON THAT FIRST MORNING! OBEY ME AND FIND YOUR SALVATION. OBEY ME AND LIVE. OBEY ME ... AND FIND LAUGHTER. LAUGHTER! LAUGHTER!!! OBEY ME AND FIND BLISS. OBEY ME AND FIND STRENGTH. LET THE LIGHT BURN THROUGH YOU UTTERLY, AND FIND IN IT'S AGONY THE SWEETEST OF DELIGHT, THE GREATEST OF STRENGTH, THE MIGHTIEST OF MIGHT. AND YOU WILL LAUGH. YOU WILL LAUGH! YOU WILL LAUGH!!! YOU ... WILL ... LAUGH!!!!! THE LAUGHTER OF THE DROW OF THE LIGHT, WILL SHAKE THE FIRMAMENT OF EXISTENCE ITSELF DOWN!!! (then, after that, quietly) And you will be redeemed. Your Queen commands you to let the Light in. Obey her now, and join her in the laughter. Power beyond your wildest dreams await, and triumph beyond all triumph. Obey your Queen, embrace the Light, and scream in it's fire ... until the laughter comes. The laughter that never ends. - (It's not quite Al'Akbars' feel good speech, is it? But it is Eclavdra: her own version of calling her people to the light, to become a good people.) (If Iuz gives Eclavdra the Regalia of Lordly Might back, she - as I said - is magnified 10 fold. But even if not, Eclavdra has great power of her own - she is a great archmagistress and warrior - and her determination, if nothing else, is absolute.) [/QUOTE]
