To tame the Stonelands.

[Blackrat]

"The future is easily seen. It just has tendency to change everytime you look into it." she says mystically as she leads you through the corridor. Soon other corridors separate from it and she finally leads you to a large wooden door. "The matron is inside." she says, turning around and walking away.

 

[Angel Tarragon]

Launa sheathes her sword and opens the wooden door. Hello...

 

[Blackrat]

"Come in. Come in." You hear from the other side. A female voice, with strange hissing overtone. As you step through you see another cowled figure. But her hood is pulled a bit back so you can actually see this one's face. You are not sure of her species. She has sharply angular face that looks almost to be chiseled of marble. The first thing you notice though is her lack of eyes. Just empty and scarred sockets.

The chamber looks like that of any wizard you have seen. Tapestries with arcane symbols, bookshelves filled with heavy tomes, and various pieces of decoration from skulls of mysterious creatures to candles with purple flames.

"Ah, welcome Lady of Red Castle, follower of Red Knight. I have long waited for this day to come again." The woman says from her desk.

 

[Angel Tarragon]

Again? What do you mean by again?

Launa face twitches into bewilderment.

Why do you call me Lady of Red Castle? When could I have possibly met you before?

 

[Blackrat]

[sblock]Oh hi. Nothing to see in this post. Look for the next one . It's the one below this [/sblock]

 

[Blackrat]

"What! You mean you haven't yet named your keep? But every time you had already done that. Something has changed. You have not met me yet but I have had this discussion with you for twenty-seven times. Always something is different but never have you come see me too early. Maybe this is the time." The woman looks almost hopefull, if you read her emotions right, which is difficult because of her lack of eyes.

OOC: Well now. I had a strange night between saturday and sunday when I got the idea for this. Mysterious isn't it ?

 

[Angel Tarragon]

No, the keep isn't even fully built yet. Right now it is just in the beginiing phase of construction; it's only a handful of un-interconnected buildings. Am I supposed to be some kind of well heralded hero in the future?

 

[Blackrat]

"In Stonelands, you will die. I have seen it a thousand times. But. I have also seen you rise to lead vast armies, bringing hope against the coming darkness, Once. That is the future we seek, that is your destiny."

OOC: Prophecies are fun aren't they?

 

[Angel Tarragon]

As long as I die a hero for a great cause, then I would agree with you that that is my destiny.

OOC: Prophecies are fun aren't they?

Thing is prophecies don't always come true.

 

[Blackrat]

"But if this is the time, you won't die. Remember child, you need allies. Killing all the inhabitants of Stonelands is not the solution. There are those who would welcome civilization, should it come to them. And there are those who will fight under the Cormyr Flag should you invite them. The darkness is coming child, and you need to be the guiding torch."

Thing is prophecies don't always come true.

Ah, but this one says that either Launa dies or becomes a great hero. Quite hard not to come to either ending in D&D game don't you think
