Anonymous" data-source="post: 966745" data-attributes="member: 5779">It has been along timie christmas has come and gone spring has come and gone and now it is summer a year after the beginning of this thing and we are still no farther than we were when we started we just are a little meaner and a heck of a lot more powerful depending on the character.  it seems that this story hour has been abandondoned so i will try to fill in everything as it happened.I dont know if you can call this up to date but from what i nknow we had left of with the children in the farm house.  ASO onece again we return.Myen Ghoul, sorceror extrodinair had at this point tuned out the conversation around him and stared lovingly into the flames that he loved pondering the maening of his existance.  his hand reached toward the flam and brought it carefull y up to his nose.  a swift sni9ff and ahhhhh.  the smoke of the cendle and its incense whirls in his head bringing his loved state of bliss.  SOme hours later he awakes to find himself a sleep in a barn.  "odd," he thinks( which is a great feat for him) " i dont remember entering a barn."  Screaming errupts dazed and still half a sleep I stare around me confused for a moment.  Their is something over at the farm house curious and ready for anything i pull up my equipment.  A bandoleer of my favorite elixer.  red glowing liquid sloshes inside 40 bottles ready to errupt into a conflagration that would put my previous sacrifice to kossuth to shame.  i also grab my weapon of choice a polearm with a hook on the end.  when my spells fail me it is good to have an alternative.  I dash to the farm house throw open the door and enter the kitchen.  light plays across the wooden walls from a fire in the back of the meager home.  intrigued by this display of pure beautiful flame i run down the hall to the light.  Gasping I stop. standing in the room of the chikldren is a beast that i remmber only as disgusting. Twisted dog legs support a huminoid torso and the head of a carrion beast a high pitched laugh and drool covers its tawny fur.  dirt flies it reaches for the children.  ANgered i attempt to destroy the beast.  my guisarme swings towards its head but is stopped by the wall next to me.  i swing once more and again my ten foot stick gets trapped by the wall frustrated i turn again towards the room.  Arrows fly from the hol;e blasted in teh wall and an elf runs in and grabs the child yelling to me and the people around me (who i dint even realize where there.)  "Kill them I will save this child." and he runs off into the night quiverr of arrows reflecting light from the flames.The next is a blur to me you see parts of this have been romoved by the shadow of death.   I scream and start to grab my bottles.  others rush around me and swing at the evil beasts more of these nightmares rush through the gap.  Fearlessly i hurl bottles at the rushing foes.  fires leap from the bottles as my prescious liquid splatters around burning fur and wood alike.  i throw another and it lands on the short beast that looks oddly like a halfling i might have know, or walked with, anyway, I stop trembling as one of the beast rushes me it rasies its weapon and gouges into my unprotected flesh.  My vision blurs and all i see is the ceiling as the beast that i had burned dropped next to me exhausted we both lie there on the verge of unconciousness my enemy and I.  I feellost and alone.  adn might have been out of it a few times.  A warmth spreads acroszs my chest runnig the length of my slash.  the flesh burns with fire and i am happy.  I find my self awake."what happend?" i ask the elven women who is standing over me.   "Amakari has saved the children and we fought off the rest."  "Good," i reply, "what of my wounds?"  " you are healled and right enough we muyst be off immediatle one of the gnoll cheiftans has poisened Dyneck."  "Well then we shall have no delay." and boldly i walk out of the burning house.  while no one is watching i walk to the walls of the home and feeling their warmth urge the flames higher and higher so kossuth might notice my fire and bless me with more.  i light a candle adn once again partake of its essence reveling in the joy of the beloved flames.  SOme time later i find my self in a forest.   i am waking next to several others that i dont recognize and elven women a man ahead with an arrow nocked in his drawn bow watching the trees and ahead of him farther is a green haired elf with dark grey skin.  Odd you doint see many drow walcking these paths but oh well.  I stop suddenly a great revelation coming to me.  a vision comes and i drop to the ground.  "YOUNG ONE" a voice says.  "YOU HAVE SERVED ME WELL""yes, flame master i have burned adn destroyed all in my path just as though would have done in my place.  Villages, inns homes and even the wolves of the forest have i burned for thy sake."  "YES MY DESCIPLE, NOW I GIVE YOU MY GREATEST GIFT THAT THOU MIOGHT SERVE ME MORE>  PARTAKE OF MY FLAMES."  I reach my hand out and grasp his the fires in his eyes flaring and the fire in my soul responding.  GASping i convulse on the forest floor,  my body breaking into flames.  I RAise up and stand in teh glory of it.  Flames cross my upstyretched arms. my body wreathed in flames.  i yell praises to my god and run towards a tree, embracing it and releqasing trh fire there in.  MOre flames must i create this forest shall burn its blaze lighting the world.  All must burn and burn must all.  I touch everything spreading my masters wishes.  An arrow flys at me and burns to ashes from my holy heat.  I stop confused that anyone might want to kill one blessed by fire.  THe elves glare angrily at me and sword leap from thier sheathes.  A quarterstaff swings from the trees beside me and i fall to the ground.  The staff once more hits my head and sword blows rain down on me.  My fire and life start to leave my broken body."NOOOO: i scream grasping with the strength born of my magic at the flames.  i hold them and reject the other call.  screaming i hold the flames. and rise out of me.  Dead, i see a broken body twisted on the ground.  I laugh at it and wonder who it was.  I shrug and turn to the others standing around it.  They step back and i giggle this game is fun.Once more i  float towards them and They step away.  laughing i fly in circles wondering what was before this freedom.  I try to think but realize I left my mind in my other body.  Suddenly something hits me and i freeze.  A amn inshining armor apperas i quiver at the dominance he has over me.  waht happend to my freedom?  "Begone foul spirit i command you."Screaming i vanish from the world forced out due to this mans holy might.  "Tell me citizens what seems to be going on here?"  The newluy arrived elf asks.  "That one was trying to destroy the forest we had to stop him."  "Glad that i arrived then freinds.  I am Runir Xiloscient cleric of Tyr"  i have come as an ambassador to the dwellers of this forest  might i inquire as to the where abouts ofthe nearest temple?"  "it just so happens that that is were we are headed Runir. join us on our journey there, we must go quickly though the life of a child rests in our hands.""Gladly then let us away!"  And that is how Myen ghoul died and the party met the only lawful elf in the forest.  THus ends this instalment of the abandoned story hour.</blockquote>
