the entrance!

[poohlive]

OOC: all right, but it had better happen soon. This has gone on long enough without a real plot.

IC:
A cold chill came over Garret, he didn't know why, but it felt so cold all of the sudden.
Garret held onto Mab, making sure whatever came he would protect her, no matter what.
At the moment, Lokken looked up to the sky, a sudden black cloud came in. He didn't understand much about magic, but this obviously wasn't natural.
"Mab, why don't we take the soldiers home, they have fought well, and deserve to be rewarded," Garret said.
Mab nodded, "Lokken, the soldiers have done their job, I believe we should let them go for now. They have served us well."
Lokken didn't seem to pay any attention. He simply looked up at the sky, arms out. A minute passed, then two, it seemed to just keep getting colder.
"No, we have just taken this land," he said, finally, it sounded as if his voice was far away, "We need to guard this city from other attacks. Let them guard it."
Garret and Mab yelled out the orders, and the officers took turns, 5 to an entrance, watching the city. Mab and Garret, tired from the day's work, decided to look for some rest. Garret followed Mab back to the castle.
He looked back at Lokken, who was still outside, arms open to the sky. He wondered who the master was, or what he was doing, but didn't ask. Some things are better left unsaid.
He followed Mab into the castle.

Oh, sure. when My plot twist doesn't fit exactly into your nice neat little plan, you simply shove it aside with the back of your hand. If you don't want me to make the story interesting, then simply kick me out of the thread. that way Everyone (meaning you) is happy.

If you wish me to stay, and are willing to try a little ablib, then I have a few pointers.
A. I never left the temple of godspeak.
B. One thing the prophets Did say was, and I quote, "No Mortal can become a god of good" The logic behing that is no mortal of good alignment can take the responcibility of becoming a god, and lose control of their awsome powers.

Conflict is the key to every story Morgoth. We were taught that in third grade.

 

[Gateleader]

Mab slipped her hand in Garrets. she lead him into one of the rooms. She wondered when ether had gone.
Mab felt something or someone calling her. HIS Was no the first time.
Se pushed Garret n to the bed and lay besde him. She was tired. SHE FELt him wrap his arms around her.
~ She felt the woman stroking her hair. Thewoman was saying something to her. She couldn't understand. She felt the woman wrap her in a lanket. A demond picked herup and carried herhome. She looked up andher brothers and Father where looking at her.
'Little one, your destiny awaits."~

Mab jerked awake.Garret awoke and lookedat her. SHE lay back in his arms and tryed to sleep.

 

[Morgoth]

OOC: Okay, you got it, Cryo, I am sorry that I messed up your plan. But Thirsha is like Lokken, immortal! Killable, but immortal.

IC: Lokken stood with arms outstretched feeling his master. Instead a sudden lightning bolt struck him. He flew into the castle where Garret and Mab stood openmouthed. Quickly a gold dragon flew in and clutched them in it's claw. It knocked Lokken, Garret and Mab out and lifted into the air so quickly that it could not be caught, though it's lift followed in an enormous hail of arrows until one of the officers had them stop in fear of hitting Lokken and the others. It flew them to an enormous castle. The castle was pitch black. Unluckily, none of the trio saw the path to it. They were thrown down at the feet of the lord. Then, they one by one came to.

 

[Cryo]

OOC; I understand that, but age doesn't allways bring wisdom.

IC; Ether stepped out of the center of the three statues. Doorways all around magically opened and the symbol of each god appeared above. There were 2 doorwats still shut, but the symbosls were not recognised by Ether. He walked to a door on the right side, with an icicle symbol on top. Inside, everything was made of ice (carved out of ice, not frosted over). The pier, the window, even the candles were made of ice, and the blue fire actually added to it.
He knelt befor the pier, clapsed his hands, and prayed. Being so close to the heavens, his prayers were heard and answered. "I am Cryo, the god of Ice. What do you wish my child Ether"
"I wish to stop lokken from ascending to Godhood, but have not the power to do it singelandedly." Ether could feel his heart being scanned. SUddenly though, he was filled with a new power! "Your heart is just. Fight, and I will aide you."
Ether stood up and walked back to the center of the room. There was just one more question to ask.

Mortal, you who have braved the storm, you who have braved the cold, you who have braved the distance. Ask, ask and we shall answer.

"How can I make it back in time to fight Lokken?"

Simply wish your destination, and we shal whisk you there.

"Then I wish to go to Lokken's castle." Ether drew his Katana, when he found himself in Lokkens castle, the roof torn off and Noone as far as the eye can see.

OOC: morgoth that last post completely made no sense. First of all Mab and I are sleeping, SLEEPING, not awake. Second, when people sleep, they are usually laying down, not standing up. Third, How do you just suddenly appear inside a private PRIVATE bedroom, that is totally wrong, everyone knows that. We need to start reading each other's post better, come on.

 

[Cryo]

OOC; for what it's worth, I was trying to honor everyone elses posts, though long ones are sometimes hard to keep track of.

 

[Morgoth]

OOC: Poohlive, what happened in your post is that you said you walked into the castle, not a private bedroom. Then in mine, I said that I flew into the castle. Even if you were sleeping, you would wake up.

 

[poohlive]

OOC: Yes, but if you would have read Gateleader's post, which came before yours. It stated that we were in bed, together and sleeping, and even if you did come into our bedroom, apart from being a sick sick man, you would wake us up, but we would still be laying down. Please read all of the posts before you post, not just one or two, and that goes for everyone.

 

[Morgoth]

OOC: Okay, Poohlive AND Gateleader, I apologize. But it doesn't make much of a difference, does it? So your naked in front of the lord. He clothes you. After all, he doesn't want nudists in his castle, does he?

IC: The lord threw Garret and Mab some clothes."Fine body, woman, are you married or not?" he asked Mab.

 

[poohlive]

OOC: Get out of the room, we never said we were naked and we are ALONE in our room for a reason, because it is time for sleep. You can't just when it is suitable for you, come and make us be awake and watch you pray to your lord. Gosh, this is just too much, how many times has this thread been screwed up because of this crap. I can't take much more of this

 

[Morgoth]

OOC: Are you reading what I say? You have all just been kidnapped. This is not Lokken's lord. It's some shmuck who thinks he the baddest dude in the world.

 

[poohlive]

OOC: You are asking us if we read what you say, when it's like the third time you have disregarded other peoples posts.
I really don't like being kidnapped, why do we have to be kidnapped? We were on a great post about taking of the north, and training guards, and becoming gods, and then boom, we are kidnapped? Who was confronted on this, I believe if there are any major decisions about the story, we make them as a team. That way we don't all have suprise bad dudes kidnap us in the middle of the night when we are naked. http://smilecwm.tripod.com/net4/jump.gif If we are going to post like a team, then we should make decisions about things like one. Thats my two cents worth.

[Cryo]

OOC; Jeez. Complain complain. You were the one that was complaining about the thread ending soon right? and I never once heard a word from you about Ether going off and doing his thing to try and stop what you were doing. WHat I say is simply Shut up. Play what your dealt and accept the fact that the three of you were kidnaped by a golden dragon Regardless of the situation.

IC; Ether, his Blizzard Katana on the ready, walked cautiousy around the ruined, empty castle. Assuming that it was some kind of trick, he jumped at every sound, and slashed at everything that moved. Eventually he found one of Lokken's personal demons, scared witless. "What happened!" Demanded Ether, but the demon was to scared yet still too loyal to talk. Ether sliced off an arm, freezing the shoulder.
"G-Golden dragon come and snatch master and newones. Golded D-dragon! I too scared t-t-to help!" it's amazing what losing a limb can do for ones mouth. Ether walked out of the castle and tried to get more information from the servetns, guards, anyone still alive and present. Noone could give a direction the golden dragon went through.

 

[poohlive]

Yeah, you're right. I suppose it doesn't really matter. All right, am shutting up... now!

 

[Morgoth]

"Who are you? Who would dare kidnap Lokken from his own castle?" Lokken asked. "You are a fool, Lokken, I was always Belial's favorite, but no, you must come and steal his favor and make me lose my only chance at godship! I've brought you all here so you can witness Lokken's death!" he shouted. Suddenly Lokken loomed up tall and dark. He towered the now cowering Dragon. "I am Lokken, darkness incarnate! No one may kill me without me wishing it! Now roast in the fires of Aargh, Hell of Belial!" Lokken exclaimed firing an orange and red ball at the Lord. the ball quickly began to stretch into a circle around everyone and and soon began to spin in a circle and grow taller. Then it collided with the roof, but ripped through. It hit the clouds and then stopped. "Hellraiser orb, do my bidding", roared Lokken. Suddebly, the clouds above them turned red and a great waterfall of fire poured from above. It had three holes in it. "Do not move!" shoted Lokken. The flames engulfed the dragon and the lord and danced just next to the three. Then as quickly as it had started, it was over. the lord and dragon had no remains to be buried and Lokken and the others were drenched in sweat."Okay, now that the lord is dead, where are we?" he asked, and it appeared that he had become human size again.

 

[Cryo]

Ether finally got a direction of the golden dragon. Sothing more then a shaky point to some mountains, but it was enough. Stealing a mount, Ether began his trek towered his destiny.

 

[poohlive]

"Well," Garret said, looking at the hole in the ceiling, "I believe we should go back home."
Garret shouted into the empty room, "UNLESS THERE ARE ANY MORE SCARY THINGS THAT WANT TO DIE TONIGHT!!!"
Silence, Garret looked back at Lokken, "We go home."
"Yeah, and how do you suppose we do that?" Mab seemed to have got her voice back.
Garret looked down, sheer rock cliff, at least a hundred feet down. Garret looked back at them, "I don't suppose anyone has any rope, do they?"
They both shook their heads, Garret didn't either.
"Lokken, I don't suppose you have a spell for getting us down, it would be a lot easier, and we can be home in no time."
Lokken smiled.

 

[Cryo]

In the distance, Ether could see fire raging from the sky. must be some battle, and he was missing it! Well, he'll be there soon now, so just you wait!

 

[Morgoth]

"Garret, I can get us down, but then, we have to walk. And it's at least a few weeks walk back to the citadel. Even then, who knows whats lurking out there in the forest? So arm yourselves", he said, as they pulled out their weapons. Lokken lifted them off the ground and slowly they descended from the mountain. They lifted in an enormous forested area.

 

[Cryo]

By the time Ether got to the edge of the forest, his hourse was exausted. Abandoning it to the wild, Ether began the trudge on foot. The forest was so thick that the trek might just take a few days. Oh well. Destiny had no time limit.

 

[Morgoth]

Lokken decided they would head to the mountains first.

OOC: Just trying to make it all the more harder!

 

[Cryo]

OOC; your not supposed to know what I'm doing, and thus cannot base your descision on me

 

[Morgoth]

OOC: Yeah, I know, it was a random decision in the story.

 

[Cryo]

OOC; Ok.


IC; Ether made his way through the forest. Something told him to turn towared the mountains, but he kept his direction steadfast.
