"Oh." Aohdan comments as two, and then a third abeil pick him up bodily, like people trying to move a particularly bulky, floppy couch. Aohdan is awed by the bee people hive, but unsure of how he feels about being completely surrounded by the strange, artificial environment. "I will accompany you all to Silvergard as well. The sooner the better."
Johen nods to his Tureni compatriot and announces he's going to see the Abeil queen.
Johen addresses the Abeil that looks after them and requests to see the Queen.
Assuming the interview is granted, he will go to her and say: "Your Highness,
I am in possession of a cursed weapon that needs to be destoyed. That weapon is what
that ghost entity was after, and is what has been drawing much unwanted attention
to my companions and I.
It seems to attract evildoers like.. like honey would do to a bear.. hum..
So, I am humbling requesting your help.. I was wondering if your people used fire.
I was thinking of a very hot furnace where I could get this dagger to melt entirely.."
He bows slightly as he finishes talking, awaiting an answer from the bee-people monarch.
OOC: fyi, bee=abeille in French!

"I'm glad you'll continue on to Silvergard with me. We still can't be sure what's happened there or what the current state of it is, until we check it ourselves." Alaric says after the others have expressed their intent.
He goes looking for a place in the hive-city to purchase some materials and gets to work on inking some more magic scrolls, to use later if needed. It takes a few days to finish the work, but he wants to be prepared for whatever other monsters or undead might be waiting in Silvergard. He leaves the others to their own business in the meantime, but keeps an eye on Corath and checks up on William when he can.

Aohdan feels the need to take some time to be alone in the massive hive. He does some window shopping for items he cant afford, and finally finds something of use he can afford. "I would buy one of those..." he tells the abeil shop keeper as he points to a row of cure light potions. "And that!" he added excitedly. "Can you make armor with that?" The item in question was several large sheets of a leathery substance covered with what appeared to be tiny, amber colored, waxy scales. When the creature gave him the affirmative, Aohdan excitedly payed up front for the work. When the transaction is finished and his measurements taken, he heads off to find a quiet place, preferably the most natural place he can find. He lowers himself to the ground and figets until he finds a position that is comfortable, but dosn't easily allow sleep. In his head, he goes over the experiences of the last few weeks. He mentally probes his memories of what went on while he was speaking in other beings voices, and seeing things in his head. He reflects upon the nature of these events, and in his mind, he reaches out for what he feels must be their root cause...

The dwarf flight to the hive was, at best, oscillatory. Muzdum kept moving, and grumbling about how uncomfortable he was, of how high (or low, or far from the group or next to the group) they were flying. In one ocation he tried to scratch his leg, in behalf of what he said was "An incredible goblin teeth itching" in his right limb. The bee creature almost looses the grasp of the dwarf, but fortunately, they landed in the hive, safe.
The dwarf showed happy and contempt with the outcome of the battle, despite William condition. He said he was sure William would eventually woke up.
At the very moment of taking his part of the loot, he ran to the marketplace to buy a new armor and some weapons:
A Guisarme with intricate designs in the amber blade, the one that the bee creatures used; and 4 throwing axes, which hilts were made of a strange and stick and hardened wax.
He also bought some shield spikes and add them himself.

Corath finds nothing she needs in the abeil hive. Instead, she spends the next few days practicing her newfound abilities. She gathers with the others as the time to continue on toward Silvergard approaches.

The Abeil Hive
The group's stay in the strange hive-city is mostly uneventful. The Queen listens attentively to Johen and answers, "It appears to be an item of great magical power and therefore not so easily destroyed. If you wish to be rid of it, we will hold it here and study it. Perhaps our knowledge of magic can find a way to rid the world of it. In the meantime, inform your hive-mates that our warriors will fly you to the plateau you seek, if you wish."
Norali speaks to the group as they are preparing to depart, "The visions I received, both at the stone quarry and when William stabbed Azilyk with the Dagger, have shown me this moment. I intend to stay here. I will watch over William and try to help the Abeil find a way to destroy the Dagger."
Aleera has been quiet during the stay with the Abeil, apparently contemplative.
OOC: Next post from me will be moving to the plateau (either through the secret cliff tunnel, or via the Abeil flying the group there, whichever the group chooses).

The Dagger Realm
Flashes of light and darkness passing before William's eyes.
Corath tumbled upward toward the black vortex. Azilyk broke away from William to go after her, her serpentine features seemingly expressing concern.
A sensation of spiders crawling on his body.
The Shadow Knight's voice echoing around William, "They must not enter the vortex together!"
William sees the world from high above. He sees clouds beneath him. He sees spiders in the sky.
A flurry of movement. Corath is shoved away and crashes through the strange mechanical door and out of the Dagger realm. Azilyk and William struggle as they are both pulled toward the vortex.
The army of death marches. The first battle is fought. But the dead do not fight the mortal creatures, they fight the alien spiders...and other things...creatures of madness.
The Shadow Knight's voice speaks to William again, "I will continue this battle. Go. There is too much for you to do to be lost now. Go!"
William awakens lying on a bed of hardened beeswax in a hexagonal cell, two Abeil warriors standing guard at the...door, for lack of a better term. An abeil worker buzzes about the room, apparently mixing poultices like the one that is currently applied to William's forehead.
The worker buzzes in a high pitched voice, "Awake? Awake! Must inform Queen!" He zips out of the room.

OOC: I'm assuming we're going with William to the Plateau? Also from a roleplay point of view,
Johen would probably want to stay until the Dagger is destroyed and he can see it from his own eyes..
To the Abeil Queen he asks: "Majesty, I fear this Dagger will bring harm to your people.. It seems to be detected by creatures even not from our world... I.. I just want to make sure we can destroy it.. "
"You also talked of Orcs. Is it correct to assume that their base is somewhere in Silvergard? Do you know anything of what happened there, who's leading them and what their goals might be?"
Later Johen addresses his companions when they have a moment: "My friends, I believe that we all want to go to the Plateau to complete our mission by investigating what is going on. The Bee people offered their help and personally I would rather take it than venture in that tunnel. It would be faster and safer though our entry point may not be as good.. What do you say?.."
