[QUOTE="JoeNotCharles, post: 4884501, member: 79945"] Ironheart looks at Haruka skeptically (if you read his expression right). [color=Olive]"I do not like to think on it. But if it will help you to understand what just happened, I will speak. Many ages ago - I know not how long - I was planted protector of a sacred grove in the mists of the Feywild. Think not that there was anything special about this grove, or of me - [i]all[/i] trees are sacred. But I failed in my task. There was a war - I remember not who fought, or why. My grove was overrun. I remember them hacking at the trees, tearing root and... I..."[/color] His voice falters, then strengthens a little. [color=Olive]"I remember a man. A dark man, cloaked in a power I had never felt before, and have not since, until..."[/color] He pauses, and indicates the iron rod. [color=Olive]"He carried this, somehow worked his spells through it. I had never seen its like, or felt such purity of iron."[/color] Ironheart's mouth twists with distaste as he says the word. He shudders slightly, and hunches his boughs, the burned and cracked bark on his left side drawing together tensely. [color=Olive]"I fought my way to his side through waves of fire and darkness. When at last I reached him, I cut him down, but with the last of his strength he drove his rod of power into my heart."[/color] [color=Olive]"When I awoke, I found my sacrifice came too late.

The speech seems to have drained him. [sblock=Insight 19] (I rolled a [url=http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2201859/]19 for Bluff[/url].) Ironheart hesitates noticeably after saying, [color=Olive]"When I awoke,"[/color] as if he is trying to decide how much to reveal. [/sblock] [/QUOTE]
