New Dys 73

15:52:42 Shadowcaller You decide where he is. /…hello?/ (Zola's voice)
15:52:48 Aegnor sec
15:53:19 Aegnor /What? Oh, hi./
15:53:56 Shadowcaller /Can you hear me clearly?/
15:55:01 Aegnor /Yes, I can./
15:55:07 Aegnor /Is something wrong?/
15:56:24 Shadowcaller /No, it's just I didn't know if you had been contacted in this way before. It can be a bit odd the first times./
15:56:58 Shadowcaller (You deleted a post?)
15:57:02 Aegnor (yup)
15:57:15 Aegnor (Are you SPYING on me? :P)
15:57:18 Shadowcaller (I guess it was pretty angry?:P)
15:57:26 Aegnor (Nah, it was just game-affecting)
15:57:32 Shadowcaller (No, I saw a post then wehn I visited the thread, it was gone.)
15:57:36 Aegnor (I pointed out that the alpha mason has a snipe tonight)
15:57:45 Shadowcaller (Oh.)
15:58:24 Aegnor /Yeah, that's true./
15:59:34 Shadowcaller /…well, I just wanted to talk to you, but I couldn' find you at the inn. Where did you go?/
16:01:08 Aegnor /Familiarizing myself with the city. Do you want me to come to the inn you're staying at?/
16:02:23 Shadowcaller /Uh… or I could come to you, it dosen't matter./ >.> (it dose sound like it matters.)
16:03:52 Aegnor (Which way does it matter? :P)
16:04:18 Shadowcaller (If she would come to him.)
16:04:36 Aegnor (…she wants to come to him?)
16:06:28 Shadowcaller (No, he asked if he should come to her, then she said she could come to him as well and that it didin't mattered who came to who, but he could tell by her voice that she didn't really want to walk throught the town to him, due her being very different and all.)
16:06:35 Shadowcaller (And the sun and stuff.)
16:06:55 Aegnor (Heh. Better.)
16:08:03 Aegnor /I'll head there, it's not like I have much to do right now. How's Michicora doing?/
16:10:25 Shadowcaller /Last time I saw her, it looked like she had recovered a bit./
16:11:05 Aegnor /Good to hear. I should be over shortly./
16:11:15 Aegnor Naib returns to that inn.
16:11:26 Aegnor While talking, if she has more to say.
16:12:27 Shadowcaller /How dose the city seem to you? I wish I could take a look at it myself…/
16:13:21 Aegnor /It's one of the larger ones I've been to. Rather clean and quiet, too./
16:15:01 Shadowcaller /Quiet? Thats unusal for such a large town isn't? I did notice a lot of guards… do you think they really need all of them, or is it just for safety?/
16:16:08 Aegnor /Well, the culture around here means people will mostly behave. But as far as we know there's been trouble with the spirits sinking the boats and the purging thing nearby, so maybe there are more guards than usual./
16:17:28 Shadowcaller /Perhaps, what do yuo think of the culture then? How dose if differance from yours?/
16:19:13 Aegnor /From my home? *chuckle* Well, people around here are more 'civilized'. Still just as unwelcoming towards strange people however./
16:20:36 Shadowcaller /You would think a port town would be used to strange people./
16:21:15 Aegnor /Well, the sailors and dockworkers don't care, but there's a rather steep border between those and the rich folk deeper in the city./
16:22:29 Shadowcaller /I suppose, I haven't really dared to leave the inn along just yet, despite my craft./
16:24:04 Aegnor /I could show you around at some point if you want to./
16:24:35 Shadowcaller /…I don't know, people would be staring at me./ >.>
16:25:13 Aegnor /I'm afraid that's likely. But it's your call./
16:26:05 Aegnor /You know, there are quite a lot of different versions of this group's deeds circulating around. *smile*/
16:26:32 Shadowcaller /This group?/
16:26:42 Shadowcaller /Their group?/
16:26:57 Shadowcaller /I mean… uh, Aegnor and them?/
16:27:34 Happy [8] on lisätty keskusteluun.

[14:32] Happy [8]: (scenario?)
[14:32] Murska: (Naib/Zola)
[14:33] Shadowcaller: She waves back a bit "…Hi." She replies, which he can barely hear.
[14:34] Murska: 'Should we go inside?'
[14:35] Shadowcaller: Zola looks to the sides "Yes, we should, I think I draw a bit too much attention to myself, even dressed like this."
[14:36] Murska: He opens the door for her. 'After you.'
[14:37] Shadowcaller: She nods "Thank you." And then walks inside.
[14:38] Murska: He follows her.
[14:39] Shadowcaller: "So.. uh, where should we sit?" She dosen't remove her deep hood.
[14:41] Murska: 'I'm not sure how you've arranged the rooms. There's always the main room, of course.'
[14:41] Shadowcaller: (Well, there are other people in the inn.)
[14:42] Murska: (But it's not like they're going to stare in the main room with the lack of light and them probably sitting in a corner.)
[14:44] Shadowcaller: "Jaina is in my room… and I don't really want to disturb her or Felia, so I guess we can st in the corner." She is looking and talking to the grund for the most of the time, not really wanting to look up.
[14:45] Murska: 'As you wish.' He leads her to an empty corner table.
[14:46] Shadowcaller: She sits down, still looking down as she speaks. "Uh so, want anything?"
[14:47] Murska: 'I could get us something to drink.'
[14:47] Shadowcaller: Zola nods "Please do."
[14:47] Murska: 'What would you like?'
[14:48] Shadowcaller: "Anything without color…"
[14:49] Murska: 'Hm?'
[14:50] Shadowcaller: "Something clear." She appears to be a bit nervous.
[14:50] Murska: 'Right, okay.'
[14:51] Murska: He leaves and returns soon with drinks for them both.
[14:51] Shadowcaller: (What kind of drinks?)
[14:52] Murska: (Probably something rather mildly alcoholic. Something to sip down slowly while talking.)
[14:52] Shadowcaller: (Okay.)
[14:53] Shadowcaller: Zola looks up at the drink he places before her, looking a bit nervous even beyond the deep cloak she wears.
[14:54] Shadowcaller: "T-thanks. I don't have any money so…" >.>
[14:55] Murska: 'I'm richer than usually after winning a tournament in the last city we were on. So it's all on me.' He grins.
[14:56] Shadowcaller: She nods, "I appriciate it, you have done a lot for me."
[14:57] Murska: 'Well, since we are travelling together anyway… So, was there something specific you wanted to talk about?'
[14:58] Shadowcaller: "Well, I really just wanted to talk with you about your society and other things. It's a bit boring here, being stuck in this inn."
[14:59] Murska: 'I can imagine.'
[14:59] Shadowcaller: "I'm used to move around a lot."
[14:59] Murska: 'Likewise. I haven't yet gotten the urge to settle down anywhere.'
[15:00] Shadowcaller: "Neither had I really, but I had to get married eventually, for the good of the family."
[15:02] Murska: 'Mm.' He looks at his drink.
[15:03] Shadowcaller: She haven't touch hers yet.
[15:05] Shadowcaller: "I miss those days really… if it not had been for that marriage, I would never have come to Saintys Edge in the first place…" She closes her eyes.
[15:06] Murska: 'What did you do before? Just travelled around to see the world?'
[15:07] Shadowcaller: "Yes, that was my passion. I traveled to places to see how they lived there and took notes, a lot of notes. You could see all this patterns between societies, rituals, was considered as pollution… that sort of things."
[15:08] Shadowcaller: "It was really intresting."
[15:09] Murska: He smiles. 'I don't write down much, but it is interesting to see new places.'
[15:09] Shadowcaller: *what was
[15:11] Shadowcaller: She smiles slightly "It is, I wasn't home much really, everything was so dull there."
[15:11] Shadowcaller: (brb, taking the dog for a walkie.)
[15:11] Murska: (How's Happy?)
[15:16] Happy [8]: (about to nap)
[15:16] Murska: (sleep well)
[15:16] Happy [8]: (in a minute. Just waiting for one more post from Kid Kris in ffrp, and then I will go)
[15:25] Murska: .
[15:34] Happy [8]: *hugs*
[15:34] Happy [8]: goodnight
[15:34] Happy [8]: off to nap
[15:35] Murska: night *hugs*
[15:39] Shadowcaller: (night?—-=
[15:40] Shadowcaller: (It was snowing -_-)
[15:40] Murska: (Heh)
[15:40] Murska: (Winter is here)
[15:40] Shadowcaller: (This was the worse damn walk I ever had.)
[15:40] Shadowcaller: (*sigh* anyway…)
[15:41] Shadowcaller: "I'm boring you aren't I?" >.>
[15:43] Shadowcaller: (You haven't slept for a day? o.O)
[15:43] Murska: (Well I woke up at 3am so I have slept a bit I guess)
[15:44] Shadowcaller: (Right… you really need to reset your schedual >.>)
[15:45] * Aegnor has left the conversation.
[15:45] * moc.liamtoh|iretnas_omis#moc.liamtoh|iretnas_omis (Aegnor) has joined the conversation.
[15:45] Shadowcaller: (here you are.)
[15:45] Murska: so, where were we
[15:46] Shadowcaller: Shadowcaller säger:
(This was the worse damn walk I ever had.)
(*sigh* anyway…)
"I'm boring you aren't I?" >.>
[15:46] Murska: (what did she say before that? »)
[15:46] Shadowcaller: She smiles slightly "It is, I wasn't home much really, everything was so dull there."
[15:46] Shadowcaller: (her smile fades after that.)
[15:47] Murska: 'Not really. I'd like to know where you've been. The world must've been quite different back then.'
[15:48] Shadowcaller: "Yeah… it's quite sad that all I have seen is gone now."
[15:49] Murska: 'Look at it this way: Now you can go back and see how everything has changed.' He tries to smile a bit.
[15:50] Shadowcaller: "If I even can do that. I have no money, no family that supports me, no home…"
[15:52] Murska: 'Hey, you'll find a way. You are a wizard, after all. I'm doing fine and all I know how to do is punch things.'
[15:54] Shadowcaller: "Yeah, magic have helped a lot throught my travels after all…"
[15:56] Murska: 'And don't think you'll get to separate from this group without us figuring out something for you to live on. Wouldn't be much of a rescue to bring you from the Deep Realms so you can mundanely starve here.'
[15:58] Shadowcaller: Zola smiles slightly "So heroes still dose exist eh?"
[15:59] Shadowcaller: "I experienced a lot of things on my travels, it was not always easy. My kin is quite rare, everyone looks oddly at me, ot think I'm… exotic."
[16:00] Murska: 'All elves are rare nowadays.'
[16:00] Murska: 'Your kind I hadn't even heard of.'
[16:00] Shadowcaller: "And my kin is rare even among elves…"
[16:01] Shadowcaller: "We mostly lived outside society, we have no homeland or such things. We just settle down in other peoples lands, they don't tend to like us very much."
[16:03] Shadowcaller: "Thankfully, many of us seems to be gifted by magic or druidism which allowes us to defend ourselves. But we don't… reproduce very much."
[16:04] Murska: 'I can't really imagine what that'd be like… I have enough problems getting /away/ from all the humans.'
[16:05] Shadowcaller: "You have?" Zola raises an eyebrow
[16:05] Murska: 'Well, humans are everywhere.'
[16:06] Shadowcaller: "I wouldn't say "everywhere" but pretty much, yeah."
[16:10] Shadowcaller: "But there are so many different kinds of them."
[16:10] Shadowcaller: "…of you, I mean." >.>
[16:10] Murska: He laughs. 'Never thought of it that way but I suppose that's true.'
[16:13] Shadowcaller: Zola just smiles "It's hard to see your own culture, until you see it in the eys of others."
[16:14] Murska: 'Too true.'
[16:14] Murska: (She still touched her drink?)
[16:15] Shadowcaller: (Zola have touched it slightly, she appears almost afraid for it, maybe beacuse of all those lust potions that were forced into her >.>)
[16:16] Murska: (v.v)
[16:16] Murska: 'So, did you have any questions?'
[16:17] Shadowcaller: "Oh, yeah. How was your society? Did you have any maturity rituals? Marriage? Special events of the era?"
[16:20] Murska: 'Well, we had a coming of age ritual at age fourteen. People got married, yes. Sometimes one man could have two wifes, especially in the case of twins, but he had to prove he could take care of them first.'
[16:23] Shadowcaller: "I see… what did this ritual consist of then? I know one example from the Obbi tribe, where the males where left out into the wilderness to fend for themselves, they were considred dead by the tribe until they returned, and once they did return, all their hair that had grown very long during their stay was haved off."
[16:25] Murska: 'Ours was not very exotic. The boy was left in the desert at a spot no farther than two days from water and he had to survive for a week.'
[16:25] Murska: 'Originally it was rouger.
[16:25] Murska: rougher*'
[16:26] Shadowcaller: "Intresting, we only had special tattos for the boys, as an imprint of their manhood."
[16:27] Shadowcaller: "Then again, we lived in such different places that we really couldn't have any landbound rituals."
[16:28] Murska: 'Marked as belonging to your culture, then?'
[16:29] Shadowcaller: "Yes, but only the males. We woman didn't have anything like that."
[16:30] Murska: 'Women had their own ritual I don't know much about.'
[16:31] Shadowcaller: "Ah, separated then?"
[16:32] Murska: 'Yeah. Probably something to do with when they… start bleeding.'
[16:33] Shadowcaller: "Ehem, yeah. That actually differances in other culture as well…" She pauses "Uh, not the bleeding that is but when women are considered to mature."
[16:35] Shadowcaller: She takes an experiment sip on her drink.
[16:35] Shadowcaller: "Hm, this is actually good, what is it?"
[16:37] Murska: 'It's called Panther's Bite here although I doubt pretty much anyone in this climate has ever even seen one. I'm not sure what exactly it contains.'
[16:40] Shadowcaller: Her eyes widens a bit as she glances at the thing she just drank "Oh… well, it won't be anything dangerous, thats for sure." She smiles after making this very strange statment.
[16:41] Murska: 'Just mild alcohol.'
[16:42] Shadowcaller: "Um, yeah…"
[16:43] Shadowcaller: She takes yet another very small sip "So, you told me you had a family right?"
[16:44] Murska: 'I think so.'
[16:44] Shadowcaller: (brb, food.)
[16:49] Murska: .
[16:53] Murska: .
[16:58] Murska: .
[17:05] Shadowcaller: (back.)
[17:07] Shadowcaller: "Well, you left them and now you are traveling with this "family."
[17:08] Murska: 'Just some friends.'
[17:09] Shadowcaller: "Friends? What make you decide to follow them along?"
[17:11] Murska: He nods as if he's been anticipating the question. 'I'm not quite sure, but there's something about them that makes me stay. I guess it's partly that at least it's interesting but…'
[17:12] Shadowcaller: "What?"
[17:13] Murska: 'I think… There's the feeling you actually matter. Like you're really changing something with them. It's not like my deeds before have ever been worth even a sidenote in some old dusty tome nobody reads.'
[17:14] Shadowcaller: "Huh… you wish to change the world then?"
[17:15] Murska: 'Never thought I did.'
[17:15] Murska: 'But it's nice to see your life has a meaning, you know.'
[17:17] Shadowcaller: "Yeah… I can see what you mean." She takes another, a bit larger sip and then smiles "There is change about them, and you as well."
[17:18] Murska: He's been taking small sips every once in a while aswell. 'I suppose. I never thought any of the stories about heroes had any merit but after seeing everything these people go through…'
[17:21] Shadowcaller: "They saved me, but for them it was just another adventure right? By your witness, they seems to have gone throught a lot."
[17:21] Murska: 'I don't think anything's 'just an another adventure' to them. They're real people, not some characters in a story.'
[17:24] Shadowcaller: "…uh, yeah." >.> She pauses "I guess I'm just so used to reading about such things that it becomes kind of surreal to actually experience it. I mean… real heroes, people that actually change the world just by themselves."
[17:25] Murska: 'I'm not sure I'd like it…'
[17:27] Murska: 'I mean, you'd be remembered in stories forever. But you'd never really have peace either.'
[17:27] Shadowcaller: "…you should know, you have experienced it. What do you mean by no peace, can't you just settle down eventually?"
[17:29] Murska: 'I'm just someone tagging along with the heroes.' He smiles. 'But they're bound to make enemies… And they'll always have people after them, because they're the 'heroes' and not real people.'
[17:29] Murska: 'You know. This and that gang of ruffians is harassing us! Heroes, please help!'
[17:31] Shadowcaller: "I can see what you are getting at… I would hate to have people following me all the time and I can't stop helping them since they really need it…"
[17:32] Shadowcaller: "But thankfully, I'm not hero material." She smiles back
[17:32] Murska: 'Likewise.'
[17:33] Murska: 'Although…'
[17:33] Murska: 'I could be, you know, a mysterious traveller who never stops anywhere and helps along his way.' He grins.
[17:34] Shadowcaller: "Sounds better then a hero at least, helping people in need, to never look back… not a bad life really."
[17:34] Shadowcaller: "But I'm just… a scholar, from another age." Zola chuckles "Sounds so strange when you say it."
[17:35] Murska: 'Hey, it's your choice what you'll be now.'
[17:35] Murska: 'A new life, basically.'
[17:38] Shadowcaller: Zola looks a bit surpised "Uh… yeah. I never thought about it that way really… and I have so many more years to live… with all bridges burned.. your right Naib."
[17:40] Murska: 'At least a few times my lifespan.' He smiles.
[17:42] Shadowcaller: "Oh… I'm sorry I didn't mean to… I forgot how short time humans live." >.>
[17:43] Murska: 'I don't mind. It doesn't feel short.'
[17:45] Shadowcaller: "To me it kind of dose, it feels strange to imagine you… dead so soon." :(
[17:45] Murska: 'I don't think about dying yet, I'm so young. And when I die, it's just the greatest adventure of them all.'
[17:48] Shadowcaller: She attempts to smile a bit "Yeah… but so short time? Dosen't it ever feel… ugh, I just remember myself having this disscussion with another Human."
[17:48] Murska: 'It's hard to compare. I'd need to try out an elven lifespan too.' He smiles.
[17:50] Shadowcaller: "I wish you could Naib, I mean, there is magic… maybe… you could do something?" She have finished her glas now.
[17:50] Murska: 'I heard Cessie's gonna try. If she figures out how, maybe she can loan whatever it is for a while.'
[17:52] Shadowcaller: "I heard so too and really, thats what I would do. But then again, I'm kind of used to this, I have most likely lived much longer then you, and we look about the same… age." She coughes "Sorry to bring this up." She looks a bit saddened.
[17:53] Murska: 'Hey, it's also a part of our cultures.'
[17:54] Murska: 'Besides, it's not the quantity it's the quality.' He winks.
[17:55] Shadowcaller: Zola sigh "I guess, I just wish…" She scratches her head, finally removing her hood. She smiles a bit, meeting his eyes.
[17:57] Murska: 'What?'
[17:58] Shadowcaller: "Well, that you could live as long as I could. I think it's so unfair."
[17:58] Murska: 'Well, people just are different. And if all humans lived so long it'd cause a huge overpopulation.'
[18:00] Shadowcaller: "I suppose all humans can't live like that, but you are a really intresting person. You don't deserve… sorry, I should stop talking of this."
[18:00] Shadowcaller: "…maybe we should have more to drink instead?"
[18:02] Murska: 'I'll go get some… Same drink?'
[18:04] * Aegnor has left the conversation.
[18:05] * moc.liamtoh|iretnas_omis#moc.liamtoh|iretnas_omis (Aegnor) has joined the conversation.
[18:06] Shadowcaller: Zola grins, not really noticing she is drawing a few eyes around the inn "I'll go for anything, just don't buy this lady too much okay?"
[18:06] Murska: (Computer froze on me goddarnit)
[18:06] Shadowcaller: (>.>)
[18:07] Murska: 'I'll try to minimize any hangover tomorrow.'
[18:09] Murska: He goes fetch drinks. He picks a different one for her to try, though it isn't much stronger.
[18:11] Shadowcaller: Zola accepts the drink gratefully "I really have to repay you for this somehow."
[18:12] Murska: 'By granting me the pleasure of an interesting conversation?' He smiles.
[18:13] Shadowcaller: "I suppose I can grant you that." She giggles. "Ah, this brings back memories…"
[18:15] Shadowcaller: "I guess you also have some memories connected to alcohol?"
[18:19] Murska: 'Yeah. Some better, some worse.'
[18:20] Shadowcaller: "I have a lot of memories really, I was quite the attraction back then." She grins widely.
[18:21] Murska: 'I'm sure of that.'
[18:23] Shadowcaller: "You might not think of it when you see me now, but since I actually was accepted back there, I did all sort of… strange stuff."
[18:24] Murska: 'There's all kinds of things you do when with a group of close friends.' He smiles. 'I would know.'
[18:27] Shadowcaller: Zola face ligthens up "Yeah, I had a lot of them, most of them human actually."
[18:28] Murska: 'What did you do, then?'
[18:32] Shadowcaller: "Oh…" She blushes "I had these parties both on and off the universities grounds for starters. It was absolutely forbidden, but we had them anyway." Zola lowers her voice a bit "We were never found out."
[18:33] Shadowcaller: Zola leans back a bit in her chair, drinking a bit more "What can I say? I was the queen of illusions."
[18:35] Murska: 'Wizard parties. Sounds interesting.' He grins.
[18:36] Shadowcaller: "It was, it really was… you should have been there Naib, I think a lot of the girls would have liked you."
[18:39] Shadowcaller: She coughes "Erhm, anyway…"
[18:41] Murska: 'We didn't really have many parties with the other students but when we had the chance, it was great.'
[18:41] Shadowcaller: "What was it like for you then?"
[18:42] Murska: 'Well, I was never good at staying in one place, so despite how we were technically supposed to stay in school, me and my friends knew the whole city like our own pockets. I don't think any city could keep me as entertained anymore.' He smiles.
[18:44] Shadowcaller: "So why leave then? It sounds great!"
[18:44] Shadowcaller: SHe have already finished her drink.
[18:45] Murska: 'Well, I kinda grew up and had nothing more to learn. And, interesting though it was, one city just wasn't enough anymore.'
[18:46] Shadowcaller: "So you started to travel then?"
[18:48] Murska: 'Continued, technically.'
[18:49] Shadowcaller: "Hm, well my journies started after the university and I had… calmed down a bit."
[18:50] Murska: 'Where did you head?'
[18:51] Shadowcaller: "Oh, out so Fujjui island, as my first stop. It was a port town after all."
[18:52] Shadowcaller: "Say, how much dose these drinks cost?"
[18:54] Murska: 'Not very much.'
[18:54] Shadowcaller: "Oh.. uh.. it was a long time since I drank something…" >.>
[18:55] Shadowcaller: "I mean, beside…nevermind."
[18:55] Murska: 'Maybe you should go slowly, then. Try more at a later date.'
[18:57] Shadowcaller: "It's okay, I built up quite the resistance in the university, and these things I drank in Sanitys Edgs… let's just say that alcohol is nothing compared to that."
[18:58] Murska: 'Hm? Well, it's your choice. But I advise to be careful, anyway.' He smiles.
[18:59] Shadowcaller: She smiles back "Of course I will, just give me some of the same drink then eh?"
[19:00] Shadowcaller: "I just try to enjoy myself with a friend, nothing wrong with that." She winks.
[19:00] Murska: 'True enough. I'll go for a refill.' His second drink has emptied at roughly the same rate as the first.
[19:01] Murska: He brings her the same drink as before.
[19:02] Shadowcaller: She accepts it and takes a quick sip and then looks at him with her red eyes "So where did you head then?"
[19:04] Murska: 'After the school? I heard of another one from my Master and went to Kojin to seek it out, but the Master of that place had left.'
[19:04] Shadowcaller: "Oh, so where did you went then? And how dose it look around there anyway?"
[19:05] Murska: 'Kojin was pretty tropical, on the mouth of a river heading into the jungle. It was quite strange for me, who had moved from the desert to the plains.'
[19:07] Murska: 'So, I had nothing to do there so I picked a boat at random and headed along the river to see what a jungle would be like.'
[19:08] Murska: 'And promptly got sick for weeks.' He grins. 'My luck.'
[19:10] Shadowcaller: "Just your luck eh? Well, at least you can travel throught that without looking like some kinf of Kyrus mummy or something. I looked redicoulus when I traveled around. I swear that people could see me for miles."
[19:11] Murska: 'Well, you'd draw attention regardless of the company, I'm sure.'
[19:12] Shadowcaller: "Tell me, is it the red eyes or the white skin that draws most attention?"
[19:15] Murska: 'I think both of those in part, and the elf ears. Or when you wear the cloak, some people want to know why you'd hide yourself.'
[19:15] Murska: 'Especially… eh, nothing.' He takes a sip of his drink.
[19:16] Shadowcaller: "What, what were you going to say?" Zola tirles her head a bit and takes a drink as well.
[19:17] Shadowcaller: *titles
[19:17] Murska: He coughs. 'I think I might've underestimated the strength of this stuff.'
[19:19] Shadowcaller: "Really? I don't notice anything special. How much did you drink in the university anyway?"
[19:19] Shadowcaller: "I doubt you drank as much as me." She winks.
[19:21] Murska: 'It wasn't really an university. We didn't drink often there but when we did, it was quite enough.' He smiles. 'And it's always nice to have a drink after a hard day even after I left.'
[19:23] Shadowcaller: "Yeah, I toned it down a lot after I left, possibly since I didn't have my friends with me anymore, but it was always nice to have a nice wine to relax to after an entiere day of traveling."
[19:25] Shadowcaller: "So what would you call it then?"
[19:27] Shadowcaller: "A school? A fighting… something, I can't remember the name."
[19:27] Murska: 'Some people call them 'Dojos'. I'm just used to the word 'School', that's how we called it.'
[19:28] Shadowcaller: "Ah, Dojos, thats the word I was looking for."
[19:30] Shadowcaller: "The biggest problem with my apperance really, is that they are going to look, even if you hide. And with my… skin problem. I need to wear this cloak all the time. And when no sun is up, it's too cold to wear anything else."
[19:31] Murska: 'I'm sure if you want, there's magic to help with that. You were the master of illusions, weren't you?'
[19:32] Shadowcaller: She sigh "Magic draws attnetion as well. And that is the mistress of illusions to you." She points at him with a wink. "Got to keep those titles staight you know?"
[19:33] Murska: 'I apologize. I'll keep it in mind from now on.'
[19:33] Shadowcaller: *attention
[19:33] Murska: 'But I doubt as many people would notice if you had a simple illusion. Can't you hide it from other wizards somehow?'
[19:36] Shadowcaller: "Thats the "true" illusion spell, I haven't used it in years. It's quite advanced magic. You actually "becomes" the illusion aprat from certain things of course." She pauses "I haven't really used it yet, even thought I did it a lot back at the university." Zola shrugs "Maybe I'm more proffesional now eh?"
[19:38] Murska: 'I know there are salves you can spread on your skin to change it's tone. But I don't know how it'd work on yours.'
[19:38] Murska: 'And then there's Cessie's Goddess of Beauty, Helena. I'm sure she could help.'
[19:38] Murska: 'See, there are a lot of options in life.' He smiles.
[19:40] Shadowcaller: "Uhh…" Zola takes a quick sip "Helena? Hmph, so many things I don't know about you yet. I thought she was into that Artaris or something, gods and goddeses really confuses me honetsly."
[19:40] Shadowcaller: *honestly
[19:40] Murska: 'I think Cessie saved her life or something. I'm not really sure how that went.'
[19:43] Shadowcaller: "Right… they have had all sort of things going on…" She pauses "So did you met any partner on the journey?"
[19:43] Shadowcaller: *partners
[19:46] Murska: 'Nobody would be interested in following some stranger on crazy long travels when they have their own lifes to consider.' He smiles somewhat sarcastically. 'I suppose it's a price to pay.'
[19:48] Shadowcaller: "Yeah… it was a considerable differance between the university and the reavels in that section for me at least."
[19:48] Murska: 'Meet new people, leave them at the end of the day…'
[19:48] Shadowcaller: *travels
[19:48] Murska: 'Teaches you to make friends quickly and say goodbye even faster.'
[19:49] Murska: His voice sounds slightly sad.
[19:49] Shadowcaller: "I often stayed to study the people, but I know but you mean…" She smiles sadly in sympathy.
[19:50] Shadowcaller: "Was there anyone you would have liked to know a bit better?"
[19:50] Murska: 'A few, at first. But it's so hard to say goodbye it's easier to learn to not say hello.'
[19:53] Shadowcaller: "It was not the same for me thought, I needed to contact everyone around me when I came to a new place, I needed to study their habits after all, learning their culture. Which as I learned, quite hard. People aren't after all very welcoming to newcomers. At least most of them weren't."
[19:53] Shadowcaller: "It takes time to be accepted by a society, especially by one such as me."
[19:54] Murska: 'Yeah. But once you do… I still have a few people I'd like to visit again some day, to talk about old times.'
[19:56] Shadowcaller: Zola smiles "I know what you mean, some people are just special… like you for instant and you are most likely the only contact I have left now."
[19:57] Murska: 'Well, you've been free for like what, a day?' He grins. 'A friend in that time is pretty well.'
[19:59] Shadowcaller: "They say I'm good at making friends… and I guess thats true."
[20:00] Shadowcaller: She grins back, now completely relaxed, sipping off her drink.
[20:00] Murska: 'So now we're actually celebrating the first days of your new life.' He takes his glass and raises it. 'Drink to that.'
[20:01] Shadowcaller: She raises her glass in unision "Yes, to a new life for me then, a new beginning."
[20:01] Murska: 'Let it be even better than the last.' He drinks.
[20:03] Shadowcaller: She drinks, the rest of her glas. "I'll drink to that."
[20:05] Shadowcaller: "How much have we drunk now really?" She says as she emptied her gals
[20:05] Shadowcaller: *glas
[20:10] Murska: 'Maybe enough, I'd say. You still attract attention until we decide which of our options to pursue, after all.'
[20:11] Shadowcaller: "Pffh, let them look, I don't care, I'm having fun for the first time in like one hundred years."
[20:12] Murska: He smiles. 'Well, that's good to hear. Maybe I'm not so dull company after all.'
[20:13] Shadowcaller: She smiles back "Dull? You? If anyone's dull, it's me."
[20:14] Murska: 'Then nobody is dull.'
[20:18] Shadowcaller: She chuckles "Okay, I might not be *that* dull, do you know how many…" She clears her throat "Uh, never mind that. It would just give you the wrong impression of me." She blushes slightly.
[20:20] Murska: 'So… Now that we have time, is there something else you'd like to know about? Like, about the group or something?'
[20:20] Shadowcaller: "Uh, well sure. You could give me a basic intorduction of them."
[20:21] Shadowcaller: "I know their names, and a bit about Aegnor,Hope and you, but otherwise not much.!
[20:21] Shadowcaller: *"
[20:21] Murska: 'Hm. Well, as far as I know…'
[20:22] Murska: 'Who first?' He grins. 'I feel like I'm gossiping now.'
[20:23] Shadowcaller: "Uh, well tell me about Cessie then, I need to ask her about her and Aegnor relationship later on anyway. I been bugging that poor sod for days with my questions."
[20:24] Murska: He chuckles. 'Well, they're completely in love. Have been since I met them.'
[20:24] Shadowcaller: "I understood that much." Zola grins back
[20:26] Murska: 'Cessie's rather proper and spends quite a lot of time studying. As far as I know she was rather high-class in Hestopia before being banished. Afterwards she met Hope and then Aegnor on the Tree.'
[20:26] Murska: 'That's when they headed into heroics, I think.' He grins.
[20:27] Shadowcaller: "I see… think she'll talk to me?"
[20:27] Murska: 'I'm sure she will. She even talked to me without prompting.'
[20:27] Shadowcaller: "She's that shy?"
[20:28] Murska: 'She isn't the most social person but I wouldn't really classify her as shy. She does speak up when she needs to, but she just prefers to be alone. Or with Aegnor, of course.'
[20:30] Shadowcaller: "I only think I saw her once or twice on the boat, she did seem to prefere staying back down there. So I guess your image of her matches mine quite well."
[20:31] Shadowcaller: "I mean, we all knew what happend once he went down there." Zola rolls her eyes.
[20:31] Murska: 'I bet she'd wish you didn't.' He grins. 'Poor girl is rather embarrassed by such subjects.'
[20:36] Shadowcaller: Zola giggles "About the same for me know, but in another time… I was *ahem*, as I tried to say before, I.. slept with a lot of guys." >.> The last words are spoken quite quickly.
[20:36] Shadowcaller: http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=128123
[20:44] Shadowcaller: "Just… thought you should know…" She is blushing quite clearly. "I hope that won't change your opinion of me…"
[20:44] Murska: 'Well, I suppose we all had our wilder years.'
[20:45] Shadowcaller: "…most guys takes badly to women like me."
[20:47] Murska: 'I try not to judge. And if you've done something like that in your past, let it be past. This is your brand new beginning, after all.'
[20:48] Shadowcaller: "Yeah but… it's not like I'm ashamed of it, really. We just had fun, like you and me have now, but in another way."
[20:50] Shadowcaller: She sigh looking quite distressed.
[20:50] Murska: 'Don't worry about it. Nobody was harmed, right? So nothing's wrong.'
[20:51] Shadowcaller: "Yeah, but when I tell guys that, they just tend to shrug me off. Calling me bad names."
[20:52] Murska: 'In cultures such as this city, it's likely, yeah. People think according to how they've grown to believe. And it can be damaging behaviour to a society if taken too far, so there's traditions against it amongst many people.'
[20:53] Shadowcaller: "It's not like I risked getting pregnant or anything… magic can prevent that. But it's not like I do that anymore thought, not after my experiences down there."
[20:54] Murska: 'You'd better consider you're likely to be how people view your entire race, aswell.'
[20:57] Shadowcaller: "…not that there is much left of it.!
[20:57] Shadowcaller: *"
[20:57] Murska: 'Who knows… There's stories elves didn't die out but instead fled somewhere.'
[20:58] Shadowcaller: "I guess I just have to go back to Hartago and find out-"
[20:59] Murska: 'I wouldn't have given the stories much weight previously but considering stories are coming to life all around me, who knows…'
[21:00] Murska: 'I wish you do find them.'
[21:00] Shadowcaller: "Very true, feels like living in a fairy tale, everyting you thought was myths comes to life before you…" Zola pauses "What about a last drink before we go to sleep eh?"
[21:01] Murska: He thinks for a moment. 'Right. One last drink.'
[21:02] Shadowcaller: "Cheers!"
[21:02] Murska: He fetches them both one.'
[21:02] Shadowcaller: She raises her empty glas.
[21:03] Shadowcaller: "So, do you have any previous… experiences?"
[21:03] Shadowcaller: "Don't you have vows or something like that?"
[21:05] Murska: 'Uh… a couple. Not many. I always thought I'd find 'The right one' or something like that one day.' He sounds slightly uncomfortable.
[21:07] Shadowcaller: Zola raises her eyebrows "The right one? Thats sooo cute." She grins "I never met a guy quite like you."
[21:08] Murska: 'Well I never met a… woman who was at all like you.'
[21:09] Shadowcaller: "Apperance or personality-wise?" Zola replies somewhat sarcastic
[21:10] Murska: 'Both, actually.'
[21:12] Shadowcaller: "Now, who could belive that?" She flickers her eyes, running her hand along her hair, looking amused.
[21:13] Murska: 'Believe who wills.' He takes a sip.
[21:13] Shadowcaller: She takes a sip along with him "So, any idea what they are up to next then?"
[21:15] Murska: (She never asked about anyone but Cessie :P) 'Who, the group? Well, they're heading for the temple tomorrow. I'm not sure how exactly they'll do what they're supposed to.'
[21:15] Murska: 'But Aegnor'll think something up, I'm sure.'
[21:15] Shadowcaller: (She will…)
[21:16] Shadowcaller: "Yeah… you know, I never asked about anyone else."
[21:16] Murska: 'Right, now that you mention it.'
[21:16] Shadowcaller: "So, uh, Simone then? She seems a bit mysterious."
[21:17] Murska: 'Yeah… She joined them as a translator first, I think. She seems to like Aegnor.'
[21:18] Murska: 'She's a very intelligent child but quite stubborn and prone to going off on her own.'
[21:19] Murska: 'And she has some connection to Helios.'
[21:19] Shadowcaller: "She dosen't exactly look to be from around here. Kind of like me. Any idea why she likes Aegnor? Not that he's an unlikeable guy, just curious."
[21:20] Murska: 'If I'd have to guess, he's sort of taken her under his wing. She's a street child originally.'
[21:21] Shadowcaller: "Yeah, she seems to be a bit like that…" She pauses "So, this Helios is some other god then?"
[21:21] Shadowcaller: "Goddess… whatever."
[21:22] Murska: 'Yeah. Nobody really likes him… Slimy thing.'
[21:23] Shadowcaller: "Oh, why is she connected to him then if he's such a bastard?"
[21:24] Murska: 'I'm not really sure. He's been useful a few times, although every time he helps it carries a high price.'
[21:25] Shadowcaller: "And thats the reason why I don't care about gods and such." She takes a large sip. "How about you?"
[21:26] Murska: 'Not very religious. Gods never had much of an effect on my life before I met these guys.'
[21:27] Shadowcaller: "They do seem to carry around a lot of thins in their backpacks. I mean, each one of them seems to be connected by some mighty spiritual being that helps them out."
[21:27] Shadowcaller: (So true…:P)
[21:27] Murska: 'Yeah. Hmm… What kind of a being would suit me, in your opinion?' He winks.
[21:32] Shadowcaller: "Oh…" Zola thinks a while, letting her index finger touch her lower lip. "A traveling spirit… something that takes is easy, cool, but still likes to help people out wherever he can, without helping too much, or stay too long at one place… Ohh, a archeron, they fit into most of that… well most of it at least."
[21:32] Murska: He looks interested. 'What are they?'
[21:32] Shadowcaller: "Ever heard of a wisp?"
[21:33] Murska: 'Fairy tales… Although not like that means much in this company.'
[21:35] Shadowcaller: She giggles "Well, archerons are basically the good variant of them, they are glowing lights traveling around, guiding people that are lost in the woods back home, some times they can stay at a place, warding evil spirits off, but eventually, they always leave to find some place else."
[21:35] Murska: He smiles. 'Sounds good.'
[21:36] Murska: 'So… anyone else?'
[21:37] Shadowcaller: "Hm… Promise then?"
[21:38] Murska: 'I was a bit surprised when I learned he and Hope… but he's a good guy. I don't know him as well because he was captured in the Spirit Realms and in some dwarven prison for a long while, however.'
[21:39] Shadowcaller: "They are… together?"
[21:39] Murska: 'Yeah.'
[21:39] Shadowcaller: (Hm, I think she knew that already, but eh.)
[21:39] Murska: 'Like most wolfen, he likes his honour. Fights pretty well too.'
[21:40] Shadowcaller: (Hello Happy >.>)
[21:40] Shadowcaller: "It sounds so wierd when you say "wolfen", we always called them Gnolls back home."
[21:41] Murska: 'I've never heard that term.'
[21:41] Happy [8]: (hi)
[21:41] Shadowcaller: "It was widely accepted where I went, I had never actually heard the term "wolfen" before."
[21:41] Shadowcaller: (These characters apperently have a lot to talk about >.>)
[21:42] Shadowcaller: "Possibly lost due translation maybe… but it's still very intresting. WOlfen and humans…"
[21:44] Murska: 'I imagine it'd come from 'wolf-men'.'
[21:45] Shadowcaller: "Possibly, but I think we had a sub-race of them or something. They were a bit shorter, more yellow. Kind of brutish, but they were still the same, I know it when I see him."
[21:45] Murska: 'He and Goldie both have rather unusual fur.'
[21:46] Shadowcaller: "I see, what of Goldie then? There is something rather odd about her. I mean, her eyes are like mine, but yellow."
[21:47] Murska: 'I don't know much about her. She has a heart defect and is somehow part elemental. Don't ask me how or why.'
[21:47] Murska: 'Hope and Promise decided to take her with us… they look at her a bit like as their own child. She was also an orphan.'
[21:48] Shadowcaller: "Oh, I see… so wolfen and humans can't have their own children then?"
[21:48] Murska: 'I don't think so.'
[21:49] Shadowcaller: "Right, who else traveled with you? That other elf… what was her name again?"
[21:49] Murska: 'Michicora?'
[21:50] Shadowcaller: "Right, Michicora. She would look quite good if she skipped those leather clothes. Whats with her really? Hope told me she was some hunter of some kind."
[21:52] Murska: 'A Servant of Kuori. A real mystery to me, she speaks almost none at all and just tends to follow around and do a lot of work wherever she is. I have no idea why someone tried to kill her.'
[21:54] Shadowcaller: "/Another/ god? Geez, you guys really have a lot of divine help on your side, no wonder you succed doing so much."
[21:58] Murska: 'I guess. They don't tend to help much however.'
[22:00] Shadowcaller: She takes a snip from her glas, it's not much left now. "Hm, so was there anyone else in your group?"
[22:00] Shadowcaller: (Paak… err..)
[22:03] Murska: 'Well, Aegnor and Hope of course.'
[22:10] Shadowcaller: "Uh, so can you tell anything about them?"
[22:11] Shadowcaller: (Sorry >.>)
[22:11] Shadowcaller: (toilet)
[22:11] Murska: He drains the last of his glass. 'Which first?'
[22:12] Shadowcaller: "Aegnor."
[22:13] Murska: 'Heh. The unofficial 'leader' of the group. Although he doesn't like it, people tend to listen to what he says. He was really stressed out by it during the Kyou conflict, though.'
[22:13] Murska: 'Somehow people tend to like him. And he's pretty smart too, though hopelessly in love.'
[22:14] Shadowcaller: She smiles "I haven't seen them together much thought."
[22:15] Murska: 'They tend to keep quiet… It was really odd to hear he's part dragon. I didn't even think dragons existed before.'
[22:15] Shadowcaller: "Uhh… dragon?"
[22:16] Murska: 'That's what spirit speakers are, according to him.'
[22:16] Murska: 'And he's great at music.'
[22:16] Shadowcaller: "Can't say i have heard him play yet… but Jaina claims he was really good."
[22:17] Murska: 'It's worth listening to.' He smiles. 'Especially if you happen to hear Cessie sing with him. I guess it's their connection, but it's really moving to hear them together.'
[22:17] Shadowcaller: "Oh, she sings?"
[22:18] Shadowcaller: "I never really imagined her as a singer."
[22:18] Murska: 'Lately, before she didn't. He somehow got her to sing on stage with him for a competition… They won, and then he proposed to her with a song right there.'
[22:18] Murska: 'I almost cried.' He grins.
[22:19] Shadowcaller: "/You/ cried?" o.O Zola pauses "It dose sound romantic though, not that I can imagine how it would have been like."
[22:20] Shadowcaller: "Wish my marriage had been like that."
[22:20] Murska: 'Hey, I have my soft and tender side.' He holds a hand to his heart in a joking gesture. 'But it's, to borrow your words, really cute to see them together.' *smile*
[22:22] Shadowcaller: She rolls her eyes "Seen a lot of cute pairs in my days, not a human elfen one yet thought. But I have heard of half-elves."
[22:23] Shadowcaller: "Or for that matter, trice-elves, fourth-elves, trice-humans and so on…"
[22:23] Shadowcaller: "All kinds of combinations."
[22:23] Murska: 'With the lack of elves, those are even more rare.'
[22:24] Shadowcaller: "Think those two are going to make one?"
[22:24] Shadowcaller: "Seems like the next stage really, with marriage and all."
[22:25] Murska: 'I can't imagine, unless their lifestyle settles down.'
[22:26] Shadowcaller: "You are going to continue to travel anyway right?"
[22:26] Murska: 'As long as I feel like it.'
[22:27] Shadowcaller: "I don't know what I will do really…" She pauses "New life and all."
[22:28] Murska: 'Do something you find fun.' He smiles.
[22:29] Shadowcaller: "Well… I would like to see Hartago again… uh, why don't you come with me? I mean… after everything." >.>
[22:30] Murska: 'Hmm. You know, I haven't seen the place…'
[22:30] Murska: 'I think I'll take that offer.'
[22:33] Shadowcaller: She smiles, looking somewhat relived "Thanks… I mean, it would be better traveling along with a friend by my side." She looks at him with a gentel expression.
[22:33] Shadowcaller: *gentel
[22:35] Shadowcaller: *gentle
[22:36] Shadowcaller: "Your… a really intresting person Naib."
[22:37] Shadowcaller: "How long have we been talking right now?"
[22:38] Murska: 'For hours, it seems. Maybe we shouldn't talk too long or we won't have anything to discuss when we travel.' He smiles. 'And since that was the last drink, maybe we should head to bed.'
[22:40] Shadowcaller: "Yeah…" She stands up and kisses him lightly on the cheek as she walks past him "It was a very pleasant evening Naib, I hope we can do this again sometime."
[22:42] Murska: He's surprised by the kiss and stands up, looking after her. 'Yeah, sure… Have a good night, I'll be heading back.'
[22:43] Shadowcaller: She smiles and winks at him before she turns and walks away /Thanks for the drinks… will repay you, I'll promise./
[22:44] Murska: /Didn't we agree that conversation was enough?/
[22:45] Shadowcaller: /What? What do you mean?/ >.>
[22:45] Murska: /No need to repay me for anything, remember?/
[22:46] Shadowcaller: /Oh right, I thought… nevermind, those drinks must have had greater effect on me then I thought. Good night Naib, see you tomorrow, hopefully./
[22:47] Murska: /Maybe we'll think of the disguise farther tomorrow. Sleep well./
[22:48] Shadowcaller: /Sleep well…/
[22:49] Shadowcaller: (So, what do you think of Zola^^)
[22:49] Shadowcaller: ?
[22:50] Murska: (Not really sure what to think :P)
[22:50] Murska: (also, so little sleep…)
