(RP) Dangerous Legacy

[sblock]"He is returned?" Is it someone we know?
Is the Black Hand a known symbolism?[/sblock]

"Returned? Who could be returned?" Sel'Tarien asks puzzled. "Who is this man?" He continues to look for his companions, and joins them if he sees them (I assume I should get to Sonrik, at least). He hopes they can make some sense out of this.

"I don't know," Sonrik says to Sel, "but I sense increadible power about him. Not evil."

Being in the crowd Rak almost wrestles his way to the source of the noise.

"The dragon whelps signal His coming!" he yells loudly as a fifth guard draws his sword and brings the pummel down upon his head. The frazzled man drops to his knees and is finally wrestled to the ground. He continues, shouding out as before, "The hand of evil is upon us! Fear the Black Hand, the traitorous arm of the dragon whelps. He is Returned! We are all doomed!"

“Who are you old man?” “who told you that the dragon is on is way!?” Rak tries to hold on of he guards “leave the old man in peace” “ his mind isn't more then disturbed!” he glances for a second at the old man “I'm sure he's not even armed” Rak tries to convince the soldier of most rank holding the man down to let the man speak out.

Your character has never heard of anything like "the black hand" before.[/sblock]

With the questions, the man swivles his gaunt face up to look at those gathering around him. "He is returned..." The man cries out at Sel'Tarien's words, then his head turns and his eyes strain to look south as he mutters, "the destroyer... the destroyer"

With He'Rak's words, the guards let the man stand, but do not take their hands off of him. "Beware the Black Hand!" The doomsayer cries, his voice echoing even here in the open space in front of the King's Palace. The guards struggle to hold the man back as he tries to move forward toward He'Rak and Sel'Tarien. (The same two that spoke to him)

Rak looks at Sel'Tarien his old friend “Do you know who he speaks of?”... he places a hand on the mans shoulder, and calmly speaks to him looking into his eyes “first of all, what is your name old man” ... “who has returned? Who or what is the black hand” “speak out old man... because i do not know anything of the shadows that i see in your eyes”

"I do not know..." Sel'Tarien answers Rak's question, hoping that the man answers the questions his friend asked. "The destroyer?" He tries to follow the man's eyes, seeing what he tries to look at.

Sel'Tarien Spoiler: [sblock]You look to the south where the crazed man looks when he mutters the words "destroyer". At first you look out over the city as it tapers away to the great lake Enber and nothing stands out to you but the moon light reflecting off of the water. But in the midst of the reflected light is a dark blotch and looking at it, you realize that it is the dark tower that stands alone atop the small island just south of Enberton... the Tower of Rox'Voroth.[/sblock]

The doomsayer, with wild eyes, pleads with He'Rak. "I am Anders, Priest of Vomadar. You must believe me!"

Kale stands with arms crossed behind the first row of people crowding the old man. I still have no idea what this old fool is talking about, he thinks. Turning away slightly, he starts looking about the area. Maybe this is a trap, like we used to do while hunting rabbits in the foothills. One to distract while the others go for the kill...

"Impossible... you can't mean Ro... no... please tell that... the heroes..." Sel'Tarien is unable to form a full sentence, hoping that he is wrong, that the priest does not mean THAT. Kendrian and Tandra'Var are dead, but their deeds should live on - they have to.

The doomsayer, with wild eyes, pleads with He'Rak. "I am Anders, Priest of Vomadar. You must believe me!"

“I-I-I d-do” with his mouth not responding to his wishes of word, he manages to pull himself together.

"Impossible... you can't mean Ro... no... please tell that... the heroes...”

As Sel'tarien almost speaks the name... Rak turns to him, and looking over Sel'Tarine's shoulder, to the south. He understands or think to understand why Sel'Tarienhas loosen his skin color, and some few pearls of sweat is to bee seen on his forehead.

“Anders respond my questions”... “who has returned? Who or what is the black hand” “and how do you know this for a fact” “are we in danger here we stand?...so many questions to ask. I better ask him some few at a time, he still may be, just a old crazy man, having fun with spreading panic.
“Have you any proof of your words?” ”im not mistrusting your word” “but if this is true, the king himself may need some proof to convince the court to take actions” He takes Anders by his shoulders “please tell us fast” “we may use all the time we can get”...
