Queltresten: A land of Myth and Mystery

[Incarnation 1.1]

How do I play?

Um.......can some one tell me how to play? I am a little confused........

 

[Angelus]

Dailin looked at the sorceror and then at the necklace and felt an instant connection to it. He stepped forward and looked into the mage's eyes, "So you are the one that has been splitting my head open. Why didn't you just ask us?"

He then felt a tap on his shoulder and turned around to see who wanted him now but the first thing he saw was the fist a second before it slammed into his face. He went flying to the ground hard enough to knock the wind out of him but before he could get it back he felt himself being picked up. He looked at the mage as he was dragged back to his feet and said, "Are you going to help me or just stand there?"
"I'm sorry. I can't step into the matters of people. I am just here to get you."
Dailin looked at the mage and then at the man and his inner voice screamed out Damn!

 

[Inkubus]

Simon

Simon prayed and collected some meager belongings. He gathered up what he could forage and followed his heart. He felt an irrisitable pull to a far away place. slowly he began to journey toward that pull.

 

[Lady_Raisa]

Lydia grinned as the man circled Starlight. He was choseing a horse to win a champion ship with . "She has a pretty mane . Who groomed her? "
"that would be me" Lydia said in a bold voice.

 

[Morgoth]

The Dark lady stood and dismissed all of her servants. She walked to the balcony, and flung it open into the stom stepping out into the lashing rain, her eyes flashed red. A siren-like howl shot out of her mouth and a feeling of pure evil spread everywhere. It came like a knife stab into the stomach. The ground was torn apart everyhwere and skeletons and zombies rose. All over the world, this army of undead sprang up. They walked briskly, not killing anyone. No one stopped them either. The storm increased it's intenisty and spread with a blinding speed. This neverending gale now covered nearly 5,000 miles. Her undead army shambled quickly to her castle, where they were awaited by a mage. He took one sword and one axe and multiplied them into millions. These he handed to the undead warriors. Up in the sky circled undead dragons and drakes. In the horizon, the sky had become a miz of colors as her armies of dragons flew to her bidding. The storm increased three time fold.

Ezekial rubbed the back of his head again, then looked to Dailin. 'Dai do you ever stay out of trouble' Ezekial walked up to the man attacking his friend. 'You got a problem with my friend?'
The burly man holding Dai up just smirked, not looking at Ezekial. 'Yeah I do shrimp first I'm gonna break his face and then I'm gonna start on you' Dailin winced at the words. Ezekial just laughed. The burly man sneered and as he started to talk turned to look at Ezekial 'What's So fu.....' the man never finished his sentence mostly due to the fact his jaw was turned sideways from the blow Ezekial landed, the man dropped to the ground and howled in pain, Dailin was set back on his feet as the man fell. Ezekial cracked a knuckle and sighed 'I hate people like that sometimes.' With that Ezekial walked to the bar, the people moving out of his way like a parting sea, he leaned slightly forward and sighed and look the the bartender. 'what ever the strongest you have, make it a double.'

 

[Morgoth]

OOC: Is it just me, or are you people totally ignoring me? I posted previously that a cold pain like a knife wound came into everyone's stomach.

 

[Angelus]

OOC: Sorry about that Morgoth..... I missed it, whoops.

IC:
Dailin got back to his feet and looked at Ezekial who was sitting at the bar. He put his hand onto his friend's shoulder and was about to say something when he noticed the look on Ezekial's face. He knew that Ezekial was getting sick of pulling him out of every little jam that he had gotten himself into and he wondered to himself if that is why he got into his fights, so that Ezekial could pull him out of them. He cleared his throat, "Ezekial, I know that you are always pulling my out of fights and I know that you must be getting sick of doing it. I promise you won't have to do it again."

He saw Ezekial turn and look at him, the same look still on his face and Dailin was about to say something more but before he could he felt a sharp pain in his stomach. It felt as though a sword had be shoved into it and was being twisted around. He fell to the floor with a loud groan of pain.

 

[Maniac9538]

Ezekial looked at his friend 'Dai?' Then he too felt that pain 'SON OF A......' Ezekial had a high threshold for pain but even this hurt. He growled in his throat as the pain wracked his form. He looked to the wizard. 'Is this your doing?' He grunts again as the pain intensifies.

 

[Lady_Siren]

Illynya joined her two friends when suddenly she was assailed by an intense pain in her stomache. Only one thing could ever compare to this pain. She had been in theives guild as a child when they were raided by sodliers. Her best friend had been in big trouble and Illynya had run to his aid taking the knife instead of him. The pain that followed was so intense she had passed out. She had been captured and tortured for years until Ezekial and Dailin had freed her. Now the pain was back bringing tears to her eyes and horrible memories to her head. CLosing her eyes she gripped the bar counter her knuckles turning white.

 

[Lady_Raisa]

Lydia Climbed on the horse to show the mister how she could do. She was just jumping over the jump when she got a huge pain in her stomach. she cried out and fell off the horse landing on her back on the jump. "OW" she shouted and held one hand to her stomach and the other to her back . she fell off the jump and layed in a heap crying . not even able to shake the pain was that bad. She tried to get up but her back would buldge . The attempt made her back scream in pain and Lydia joined in with the screaming of the back. Krissy ran up to get the horse. The man ran to Lydia's side and picked her up. She was light in his arms . She cried out in protest . "Just leave me on the ground. put me down, I'll be fine " but he wouldn't listin to that. She had tears streaming down her eyes.

 

[Maniac9538]

Ezekial closed his eyes, years of training with his father had made him a incredible swordsman, but his mother well she taught him magic, he was proficent with magic though not as deadly as Beltharius, he mumbled the first spell his mother ever taught him, a protection spell, which he casted on he and his friends, but his power went over board sending a shockwave that even the evil who sent it could sense the energy. Ezekial stood slowly and went over to Illynya and gently picked her up setting her into a chair. Ezekial's brow was covered in sweat holding the spell in place over the inn protecting those in it. 'What was that?'

 

[Lady_Raisa]

They rushed Lydia to the corner of the stables and Krissy ran to the castle to get help. The man wiped the tears away as she cryed "there there . everything will turn out good. don't worry" He said moving her hair away from her face. He tears ran still when the gaurds got to her.
"what happened ?" One man bellowed " Did you touch her?" He growled grabbing his arm.
"no!" he said . tugging his arm back. " She fell off the horse. langed on the jump"
"Its true. " Lydia sobbed
"lest get her some help" the man bellowed and picked her up .

 

[Angelus]

Dailin slowly got to his feet and looked around the inn and then at Ezekial. His hands instantly dropped to the hilts of his scimitars, trying to find what had just happened to him. He looked up at his friend and saw that there was a sheen of sweat on his forehead. Ezekial had obviously felt it and so had Illynya as she looked as white as a sheet. He walked over to the two of them and said, "What in the nine hells was that. I have never felt anything as painful as that in my life."

As he looked from face to face he knew he wouldn't get an answer as they both seemed to be concentrating on something. What had that mage gotten then into..... was it going to get them killed.

 

[Maniac9538]

Ezekial finally collapsed as he felt the pressure from the evil dissapate, his skin cold and he shook slightly, he was drained of energy, he felt like someone had taken his body, dropped it into an orc horde and let them beat on his for a few hours. He tried to stand bracing himself on the bar but just collapsed back into a sitting position leaning against the bar breathing like he just ran 10 miles. 'Is that what I thought it was? Is she back?'

 

[Angelus]

Dailin looked at his friend in concern as it was the first time he had seen him like this. He still felt the after effects of whatever had attacked them and it still hurt a little but it was slowly disappearing. He moved towards Ezekial and said, "Will someone please tell me what happened. Someone attacked us for a reason and I for one can't think of anyone or anything that powerful that we have annoyed that much and who is she? What in the nine hells are you talking about.... is this something that I should know about?"

 

[Lady_Raisa]

Lydia screamed as they touched the part of the back that was hurt. they gave her a drink of whiskey and looked back at her back. Its broken one inexpeinced man said looking at the back that was already swollen and red Its sprained the real docter thought cutting her back open slightly to get a look inside. Lydia screamed again as the blade touched her back.
"get it away from me ! " she screamed " Just tell me I'm crippled , send me to the forset to die ! Anything ! just don't cut my back. "
The blood spilled from the open flesh and she was told to bite into a rag. She did so and the mister who helped her smoothed her hair .
"its ok" he coaxed her. "everything will be ok. "
"lier!" she spat and bit on the rag again

 

[Morgoth]

"I need a herald to bring my power to those idiots at the Tower of Sorcery. You, dragonking, shall bring me there. You shall witness my power as I annihalate those rebels", she spoke in her normal voice. The dragonking, Sheragul, nodded, the only creature with enough power to live through her voice. She mounted him and they lifted off. He brought her to the Tower. Every mage stood before her. They each pooled their energy together and flung one burst of pure mana at her. She waved her hand and it dissipated immediately. They once again pooled their energy together and created a huge shield. She opened her mouth and a red light burst forth. It cut through the shield as if there was none and ripped into the Master mages, tearing them to pieces. The rest of the shield crumbled and all the mages were incinerated, dying horribly. All shields put up against her magic were crushed. Pain, horrible and extreme, many times worse than previous, cut into everyone, every last creature of good, exploding into their hearts, stomachs, and heads. She spoke a word and the sky glowed red. An enormous flaming meteor ripped through the clouds and smashed head-on into the Tower and exploded. When the smoke cleared, the Tower wasn't there. Neither was the city. Only the Dark Lady and Sheragul stood there amid the rubble. She chanted a few words and the clouds once again glowed red. But now, she had cast her herald. The fire storm. Fire and lightning rained out of the sky, scarring the ground. This was a permanent spell, and would last until she was destroyed. They lifted up into the air and flew back to her citadel. In the background, red storms of fire swirled angrily. The pain that had struck people everywhere so suddenly also so suddenly dissipated. They also knew she was here. No one could deny it.

 

[Maniac9538]

He groans again the pain only striking him since he was protecting those around him. 'The Dark Queen, she has returned....I told you about her once Dai, the one my Father and a few others thought they destroyed back when they were younger. Please tell me I'm wrong Beltharus, please tell me she hasn't risen again.'
The mage just looked down and since the pain had disappated Ezekial stood up 'Great just freaking great, knowing my luck she'll come after me next since my father killed her last time.'

 

[Angelus]

Dailin looked at his friend then remembered what he had been told about this Dark Queen. She was the most evil and powerful being in all the dimensions. She had come to this world looking for a powerful artifact, one that had the power to destroy everything and remake it in her image. Ezekial's father and a few other powerful people, mages, clerics and warriors had fought her in the valley that the artifact was kept in and had barely won a hard fought battle.

"So you are saying that this Dark Queen is back. And I suppose that we have to fight her before she finds that artifact again. You know, the one that she can destroy everything with, that's if you knew where the blasted thing is and we get to it before she does."

The three of them looked at Dailin and by the looks on their faces he knew that he had just said the right thing.

 

[Lady_Siren]

Illynya was still lost in her memories. Dragging herself out of them she head them mention the dark queen. Closing her eyes she remembered the Dark Queen all to well, it had been her soldiers that captured her. The Dark Queen had been dead by then but one of her followers still obeyed her. It was because of her that her family was dead and that Illynya had lived in hell for ten years of her life. She looked at Ezekial, "Count me in, this dark queen or whoever she is I'll bet she was the one that killed the mages to the north. I say it's time we showed her majesty that she is not welcome here" her eyes flashed and she shuttered them so her friends would not see how much she still hurt inside. "So any idea who might know about this thing she is after?"

 

[Maniac9538]

Reaches into his bag and tosses a large book onto the floor, blood pooling from his nose and mouth onto the floor. 'should be in there, my dad kept a journal on everything dealing with the Dark Queen, her powers and the artifact.' Passes out on the floor, his body was drained, he was hurting all over and he needed to rest.

 

[Angelus]

Dailin rushed over to where his friend lay and tried to pick him up but he knew that there was no way that he could move him. He was a good fighter but Dailin knew that there was no way that he could move a person as big as Ezekial was. He knelt down next to Ezekial, his breath coming out in short gasps and said, "Ezek, come on- wake up! You have to wake up. There is no way that I can do this without you. Who is going to get me out of the trouble that I am more than likely going to get myself into now. Come on..... get up!"

 

[Maniac9538]

A massive hand rose up and clamped over Dailin's mouth and face. 'Dai shut up and let me rest for a moment...Hell will freeze over before I die and let evil reign.....so shut up for five minutes and let me sleep.' With that the hand dropped and Ezekial began to snore.
