OOC Discussion for Kingdom of Ashes (Leaving Queens, Breaking Swords, & Snake Chicks)

By the way. The runes on the spirit blade from Caer Maelyn say "Fight with Honor"

 

[The_Universe]

Heh - yes they do.

Also, for the purposes of timelining, I'm measuring weeks from this point forward from Arfin's Death. So, at the moment, you're at T+1 day.

 

[The_Universe]

when we play next we will find out. so far it just went that Xath took the mansblade from the wall and has been carrying it around. At the audience in the morning, Jaine says to bring in AB L'aurel ask where she points she runs off to find him. Jaine tells Jansten to return in an hour, and they will pick up then.
That's where we left off at least.......

That is correct - as of this moment (IC) L'Aurel would just be reaching him.

Talking to Bluestar

not everyone has said we should not go talk to the Bluestar.

He does know a lot, and he does have info.
But there has to be other ways then going North ourselves? Mirror or Window so we see him? Just to explore these options first....



As for AB- there was no answer- Jansten said he came looking for a leader, not that AB was apart of it or not a part of it. AB chose to go and chose to serve the bluestar. He may not offer others up to the Bluestar rule, but he does serve the bluestar as only Arhconus could/would. Thus the AB rule so Bluestar rule.
But it doesn't really matter-

The long and short of it is that the relationship between AB and the Bluestar remains more of a mystery than you thought.

There may be ways to meet with ol' Blue eye without actually going to his throne room, or something. Any ideas? I thought of trying to get to a neutral meeting place, but there are probably other ways.

Kat mentioned a mirror - elaborate?

Based on what we have recently learned, I do not think the "AB is in control, bluestar is in control" is a logical leap-- he has maintained a non-evil alignment and has connections to a rebellion in the North-- he is defiant on at least some level.
The main reason for going to Sylvanus was so that Archonus could claim the city-- showing up now would cause a lot of confusion and disorder in the city that I don't think is necessary at the moment.
But, if y'all want to go, we certainly can... however, it is not as pressing because Archonus can't claim the city... he already has.

But another reason could be to get support for Pheonix and Queen Jaine. not at the top of the list of things to do, but we are still at one city for supoort of us... and eventually the war with the west will be over, and it may be a little late at that time to try and round up all our support.
But just a thought.

Give him a ring gate and set each side up on a wall, looks like a mirror, but is actually a portal see and hear through gate....... Gate Conference.

Also leads to keeping the way to communication open... if we want it.

 

[The_Universe]

A note about logistics: the only way the war will be over *before* you've rounded up all possible support for your rebellion will be if you've lost.

So, winning support is of the utmost importance, unless you think you can win the entire war with the allies you already have.

An interesting idea. But someone would have to take one of the gates to him. Suggestions?

Xath with the black stone in her neck....
Uh just kidding. Actually what about AB, or offer it to him with the stipulation he comes back right away and the sword stays. Otherwise mindless minion number 400 gets sent down and gets to take it back..... ?.....
