Herin follows the log of the guild RP, recording what was Said and emoted (with minor edits for spelling and verbiage):
Daeliria brushes herself off.
Cloudspur greets everyone warmly.
Reycied rolls his shoulders idly.
Konradexius stands at attention and salutes.
Malyris has come online.
Cloudspur peers about curiously.
Daeliria says: Everyone, this is Reycied. Reycied, the Eilon.
Cloudspur bows before Reycied.
Konradexius inspects Reycied.
Doskious says: Greetings.
Reycied looks a little nervous, peering over the rims of his glasses.
Konradexius bows before Reycied.
Reycied says: Hello, there...nice to meet all of you.
Cloudspur says: This place is a bit grim...
A sly smirk spreads across Cloudspur's face.
Konradexius says: A pleasure.
Reycied bows down graciously.
Daeliria says: Well, if you have a better idea, all you need to do is get yourself attacked here.
Daeliria grins wickedly at Cloudspur.
Cloudspur snorts.
Cloudspur says: How kind!
Daeliria laughs.
Reycied rocks back and forth on his heels.
Cloudspur says: At least there's a warm fire.
Cloudspur says: We are waiting for some, aren't we?
Daeliria says: Aye..
Doskious says: Several of our number remain enroute, yes.
Cloudspur peers into her bags. "Oh dear me. I forgot edibles, as usual. Oh, don't look at me like that, Wellington."
Daeliria raises an eyebrow at the sight of Doskious's perch.
Reycied unslings his sword and leans it against a stack of boxes.
Cloudspur smirks slyly at Doskious.
Doskious gently pats Snowshoe Rabbit.
Reycied says: Well, don't you look comfortable?
Reycied smiles personably.
Delcorian says: Hello eveyone.
Cloudspur greets everyone warmly.
Yazriana says: hello
Doskious says: Greetings!
Daeliria says: Hello there.
Yazriana bows before Delcorian.
Reycied says: Greetings.
Konradexius says: Reycied, how might you have come into the aquintance of our dear Guildmaster?
Reycied says: Daeliria is your guildmaster?
Reycied looks clearly surprised by this.
Konradexius nods to Yazriana and Delcorian.
Daeliria chooses this moment to pull out a map and pore over it.
Cloudspur blinks.
Yazriana looks at each person a moment silently counting in her head.
Reycied looks at her artfully, then removes his spectacles and polishes them on his shirt.
Konradexius says: She is.
Doskious says: She is perhaps the most ... qualified ... among us.
Reycied says: A punching bag and potion-horse, mostly...
Cloudspur blinks at Reycied.
Konradexius says: Ah hah.
Yazriana smiles
Reycied grins playfully, setting his glasses back on his nose.
Daeliria says: Not much of a potion-horse, I hope!
Delcorian looks at all the people here.
Reycied kneels down.
Reycied sets more kindling on the fire.
Daeliria pokes her head into the tent.
Cloudspur leans comfortably against the cart.
Yazriana smiles at Snowshoe Rabbit.
Cloudspur smiles at Yazriana.
Daeliria says: I wonder whose camp this was...
Yazriana kneels before Snowshoe Rabbit.
Yazriana gently pats Snowshoe Rabbit.
Konradexius says: Malyris is fashionably late.
Yazriana says: Hello. I am Yazriana. I love your rabbit.
Daeliria grins wickedly at Konradexius.
Cloudspur says: Who knows? But it appears abandoned for some time.
Reycied says: Then...why was the fire still burning...?
Cloudspur says: Oh, thank you, errr... Oh, my name is Cloudspur, by the way.
Doskious says: She comes, Konradexius.
Cloudspur says: The rabbit's name is Wellington. It was a human's idea, not mine.
Yazriana says: There are still supplies here...
Reycied arches a brow at the spookiness of the situation...
Delcorian says: Well everyone I am Delcorian. Nice to meet you all.
Cloudspur says: Yes, but there's a layer of untouched dust about...
Daeliria says: Sounds like the beginning of a ghost story.
Konradexius says: The fire may be kept lit with magic.
Yazriana giggles at the name.
Daeliria smiles knowingly.
Cloudspur giggles.
Doskious says: The supplies are of no import.
Reycied says: And the group of young adventurers stumbled upon a long-forgotten camp...
Konradexius says: Nothing useful?
Doskious says: They were domestic, you see.
Reycied wiggles his hands in an attempt at theatrics.
Daeliria says: Good to have you here, Yazriana, Delcorian.
Cloudspur grins.
Delcorian says: Nice to see you again.
Yazriana says: Thank you
Yazriana says: It is nice to see you again and meet all of you.
Daeliria says: And the last two should be coming now...
Doskious says: To be sure.
Reycied says: Yes, thank you very much for the invitation to join you fine people.
Cloudspur nods at Yazriana.
Doskious smiles at Yazriana.
Daeliria smiles at Malyris.
Cloudspur waves at Malyris.
Yazriana bows before Malyris.
Doskious greet Malyris warmly.
Malyris greets everyone warmly.
Reycied waves at Malyris.
Delcorian waves at Malyris.
Konradexius greets Malyris warmly.
Yazriana says: Del your boots match her dress *she winks*
Yazriana pokes Delcorian. Hey!
Cloudspur laughs.
Delcorian looks down and looks at her dress.
Reycied hides a smirk behind his hand.
Delcorian says: Yes, yes they do.
Delcorian laughs.
Yazriana says: I tease love. You know I love you.
Malyris says: Wow...
Delcorian says: Yes love.
Reycied brushes off his rear.
Cloudspur eyes Konradexius up and down.
Daeliria strokes her chin thoughtfully.
Cloudspur says: Aren't you, uh... a bit hot in there?
Yazriana winks slyly at Konradexius.
Cloudspur eyes the spiky armor and keeps her distance.
Delcorian says: Careful, that fire is hot...
Delcorian laughs.
Daeliria hails Ruzhia.
Cloudspur waves at Ruzhia.
Konradexius glances at Cloudspur.
Ruzhia curtsies.
Delcorian waves at Ruzhia.
Yazriana smiles at Ruzhia.
Delcorian says: Hello and welcome.
Reycied greets Ruzhia warmly.
Daeliria says: Let's see here...
Malyris says: Hallo!
Konradexius says: My armor is like my skin. I am very reluctant to go without it.
Daeliria says: Some of you haven't met, so.
Cloudspur says: I see. A warrior to the core.
Cloudspur smiles.
Doskious says: Konrad, are the Coolomatic Refresh-bots I installed for you still working well?
Malyris looks around for any lurking 'Zanis.
Konradexius says: Also.
Daeliria says: Maly, are you all right?
Reycied says: Coolmatic...refresh...
Reycied trails off, shaking his head.
Cloudspur scratches her nose. "That sounds terribly Gnomish."
Malyris says: Fine!
Malyris grins wickedly at Daeliria.
Daeliria says: You look jumpy.
Doskious says: [Gnomish] Indeed.
Konradexius says: This place may not be completely safe. I am to always remain vigilant in case of danger.
Cloudspur blinks at Doskious.
Cloudspur says: Oh! That's sensible. I feel safe, then.
Cloudspur winks slyly at Konradexius.
Malyris says: Just Konrad doesn't wanna lose his skin and Zani's been talking about wantin' more leather.
Malyris nods sagely.
Daeliria blinks at Malyris.
Yazriana looks up at the tall rock formations
Delcorian says: I would feel bad for the thing that tries to attack us now.
Doskious smiles at Malyris.
Reycied glances at Ruzhia and stifles a laugh on one knuckle.
Delcorian laughs.
Yazriana says: haha
Doskious lets out a hearty chuckle.
Konradexius says: Yes, Doskious. I've also found that some spare cloth reduces the rattling noise it produces...
Reycied says: You look like a juggernaut, Sir Konrad...
Ruzhia winks, then lets her gaze wander.
Cloudspur says: The intent, I suppose.
Cloudspur grins slightly.
Reycied says: Seems so...
Cloudspur smiles at Dark Whelpling.
Konradexius says: That is a very good compliment to me, Reycied.
Daeliria says: Well then.
Konradexius bows before Reycied.
Doskious says: The rattling noises were intended as a gauge to determine repair necessity. The quieter it gets, the more in need of repair it was supposed to be! You've made modifications?
Reycied grins.
Konradexius stares Dark Whelpling down.
Delcorian turns his attention to Daeliria.
Malyris laughs.
Yazriana gently pats Dark Whelpling.
Reycied says: I'd love to spar with you some time to see if I can measure up.
Yazriana says: he will not harm anyone. Sparky is quite tame.
Cloudspur says: Oh dear me...
Konradexius says: I simply desired to hear my own thoughts.
Daeliria waits for things to die down, while she pulls out a new scratchpad.
Doskious says: Aha...
Malyris listens for thoughts.
Malyris says: Nope, nothin'.
Malyris lets out a long, drawn-out sigh.
Reycied shivers a little, rubbing one arm with the opposite hand.
Doskious says: [Gnomish] Well, back to the drawing board I suppose...
Konradexius says: ...Is that a whelp of the Black Dragonflight?
Yazriana sits down and pats Sparky on the top of his head
Malyris nods at Doskious.
Malyris says: .... I dunno what I just agreed to.
Yazriana says: It is a Dark Whepling but he shall grow no larger. *she winks* A runt if you will.
Cloudspur settles against the cart again.
Doskious grins briefly.
Malyris is hopelessly confused.
Cloudspur says: Oh, how cute. A runt.
Yazriana smiles.
Konradexius says: Of course, Reycied. I am always read to test myself and others at arms.
Doskious adjusts his Eye of Flame.
Reycied seats himself in the dirt, scooting close to the fire for warmth.
Cloudspur blinks at Malyris.
Reycied says: Yikes!
Daeliria says: Be careful there.
Malyris grumbles, "Stupid aura."
Cloudspur hides a chuckle.
Reycied says: Here, Miss...would you like more room?
Doskious focuses his gaze on the fire, adjusting his monocle.
Reycied scootches to one side.
Ruzhia says: ...No, thank you kindly.
Doskious sighs quietly.
Ruzhia says: I would rather keep an eye on things.
Reycied says: Makes sense...
Daeliria says: All right. It's wonderful to see everyone here.
Cloudspur says: Oh..? Mm.
Daeliria smiles.
Doskious says: One moment, if you please.
Cloudspur peers at Doskious searchingly.
Malyris says: Wait... am I supposed to be here?
Doskious walks a little further down the path to the main road.
Doskious concentrates as Eldritch Light fountains around him.
Doskious says: Graz'gore, I require your presence!
Malyris rolls up her left sleeve and consults her arm, which is covered in ink stains.
Malyris frowns.
Ruzhia eyes Graz'gore up and down.
Doskious demands Graz'gore's full attention.
Cloudspur leans over to Malyris and peers. "Huh?"
Doskious says: Guard this pass.
Malyris says: Welp, guess here's as good a place as any!
Reycied leans over, whispering to Daeliria.
Malyris cheers!
Ruzhia nods at Doskious.
Cloudspur says: Oh! Clever idea.
Yazriana smiles at Delcorian a moment before looking into the fire contently.
Delcorian smiles at Yazriana.
Reycied nods, curling his knees to his chest and staring into the flames.
Doskious returns to the cart without another glance at his loyal minion.
Ruzhia whispers: All the same, and no insult intended to your skills, but I'll watch as well.
Reycied says: Cold night.
Cloudspur claps her hands together and looks at Daeliria. "So! I'm told this is a storytelling?"
Daeliria nods at Cloudspur.
Doskious whispers: Oh, please!
Konradexius says: I find I never get cold carrying a flaming sword.
Daeliria says: Since I did not ask anyone to come prepared with a story...
Konradexius laughs.
Doskious whispers: Konrad is on alert also, I know.
Ruzhia nods at Doskious.
Reycied says: That'll do it...
Yazriana winks slyly at Konradexius.
Malyris lets out a hearty chuckle.
Cloudspur looks down at her rabbit. "Hmm, you did warn me, I suppose."
Daeliria says: ...and since I don't have one myself...
Cloudspur says: Stories!
Daeliria says: ...We'll all tell a story, together.
Malyris says: Bunny!
Yazriana smiles thinking to herself a story
Reycied raises his hand sheepishly.
Malyris gently pats Snowshoe Rabbit.
Cloudspur says: Ah.
Konradexius glances at Graz'gore, shrugs, and slowly removes some of his extra plate mail.
Cloudspur smiles at Malyris.
Cloudspur says: Wait--tell a story together?
Reycied says: I've got a brief ghost story that might keep you entertained for a short time.
Cloudspur says: Ooh, this is the place for it.
Daeliria says: Aye. I'll start, speak a few sentences, then Doskious will pick up where I left off. And we'll go around the fire in turn.
Reycied closes his mouth at the suggestion of a group story, grinning.
Delcorian says: Sounds like fun.
Cloudspur says: ah.
Daeliria says: Afterwards we can tell individual stories, should anyone have one.
Reycied says: I'm game.
Cloudspur blinks at Ruzhia.
Yazriana agrees with Delcorian.
Ruzhia seems a little tipsy from the Don Carlos Tequila.
Daeliria smiles.
Malyris seems a little tipsy from the Rumsey Rum.
Cloudspur says: Fair enough.
Malyris is getting drunk off of Dark Dwarven Lager.
Daeliria says: Everyone comfortable?
Delcorian says: Oh, I brought Jug of Bourbon and Bottle of Pinot Noir for anyone who wants it.
Malyris is completely smashed from the Dark Dwarven Lager.
Delcorian says: Yes, that sounds good to me.
Malyris says: Yes!
Cloudspur smiles. "No, thank you."
Yazriana says: I am comfortable yes
Reycied laughs. "No thanks, not a big alcohol drinker...especially not after today..."
Doskious says: Thank you, no. I find that alcohol can disrupt the fine focus I require in my art.
Ruzhia says: I've got my own...thank you.
Malyris says: I got thish shtuff from a dwarf. Dunno what it is, but it'sh good!
Malyris cheers at Konradexius!
Yazriana seems a little tipsy from the Aerie Peak Pale Ale.
Ruzhia eyes Malyris up and down.
Delcorian seems a little tipsy from the Jug of Bourbon.
Konradexius sighs at Malyris.
Daeliria grins wickedly.
Cloudspur says: Well. At least it wasn't from a Goblin.
Malyris bubbles.
Konradexius says: You're in usual form, Mal.
Reycied fishes a small cooking pot out of his pack and fills it from a bottle that smells strongly of apples, setting it to warm over the fire.
Malyris says: Why thank you.
Malyris says: ... I have no idea what that means.
Daeliria says: Seeing the amount of alcohol present today - and mind that no one spills any into the fire...
Malyris looks drunk.
Daeliria takes a moment to glance around.
Daeliria says: Why don't we start with a young dwarf, working the family brewery.
Cloudspur ponders.
Ruzhia seems to be sobering up.
Reycied says: Dwarves are young?
Reycied smirks.
Daeliria says: To some of us more than others.
Malyris says: At shome point or another.
Daeliria grins wickedly.
Reycied chuckles, stirring the apple-smelling liquid in the pot.
Cloudspur tilts her head. "Hm, I haven't socialised a great deal with Dwarves..."
Daeliria says: This dwarf had a devoted pet, and a gnome as a best friend.
Delcorian seems to be sobering up.
Konradexius says: Reycied, is that Cider?
Malyris says: You can have pet gnomes?
Cloudspur snorts.
Daeliria nods towards Doskious. "Go ahead."
Reycied says: Apple juice now...it will be cider once I add the mulling spices.
Delcorian smiles.
Doskious says: We ... prefer not to discuss it.
Yazriana says: yes little helpers..they look like gnomes. hehe
Doskious chuckles at Malyris.
Yazriana smiles knowing shhe should let the shtory go on.
Malyris makes a note on her arm "Look into pet gnome."
Konradexius seems uncharacteristically enthused. "I love Cider!"
Reycied grins and holds one finger to his lips, falling silent so the story can roll on.
Cloudspur gives a start at Konradexius, suddenly noticing that a third of his armor is off.
Doskious gently pats Cloudspur.
Ruzhia seems a little tipsy from the Loch Modan Lager.
Cloudspur looks around. "Where did that human lady go?"
Ruzhia is completely smashed from the Loch Modan Lager.
Cloudspur says: Ah.
Malyris says: You mean Rhubarb?
Cloudspur says: Uh.....
Malyris points at Ruzhia.
Konradexius grins at Cloudspur, while scratching softly at now-exposed skin.
Ruzhia coughsh delicately.
Cloudspur says: Rhu...barb?
Doskious says: Restless leg syndrome, Ruzhia?
Reycied says: Daeliria? Would you like to add a few more sentences and pass it along?
Reycied smiles warmly.
Malyris says: Yup! That'sh what everbody callsh her, isn't it?
Malyris frownsh slightly.
Daeliria sits back, waiting for Doskious to pick up.
Cloudspur says: Oh!
Cloudspur looks up at Doskious.
Malyris says: ... Or ish it... bleh, I dunno.
Ruzhia looks drunk.
Ruzhia merely shhrugsh one shhoulder, her manner implacable. ...hic!
Malyris looks tipsy.
Daeliria says: I'd rather that Lord Steele have a chance to reclaim his racial honor.
Reycied pulls out a piece of clean cheesecloth, adding a few scoops of rich-smelling mulling spices to the center. Wrapping it up, he dunks it in the boiling apple juice.
Daeliria grins mischievously.
Malyris says: Mmm, appley.

Yazriana perks a brow..confused.
Yazriana looks in her mug and sets it aside.
Doskious says: Gnomes are not available as pets. Depending on the benefits, perqs, advantages, and pay, they may be available for hire as companions.
Malyris says: Bah.
Daeliria says: ...I meant with continuing the story.
Daeliria grins at Doskious wickedly.
Delcorian laughs.
Malyris amends the statement on her arm, by simply adding a "don't" in front of it.
Doskious says: Oh, the story. I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with this one. Do go on without me, I'm itching to see how it goes!
Yazriana whispers to Delcorian "But I have a pet gnome..or at least it looks like one. A tiny green one."
Doskious beams around cheerily.
Malyris blinks at Doskious.
Daeliria glances upwards, taking in a deep breath.
Cloudspur says: Huh.
Delcorian says: I think for the Story, we just add what we want and make it up as we go. Correct?
Daeliria says: No, no. The story is building itself. It's your turn to add on to it, Doskious.
Malyris says: Think so...
Konradexius says: The idea is to continue the story however you see fit, Doskious.
Cloudspur says: Only one sentence?
Doskious says: Oh. Ah, yes.
Daeliria says: One or two.
Malyris says: Or two, or three, or four.
Doskious says: One sentence, eh?
Reycied listens with a tiny smile on his face, tasting a sthingyful of the tangy-smelling apple cider.
Malyris says: Or five...
Daeliria says: But five is right out.
Malyris gasps at Daeliria.
Malyris says: Not five!
Cloudspur says: Alright, one or two.
Doskious begins to leaf through his Pocket Guide to All Things Grammatical.
Reycied pours a large mug's worth and hands it across to Konrad.
Malyris looks over at Konrad.
Yazriana seems to be sobering up.
Malyris says: How do you plan to drink that?
Doskious says: Very well. <erhm>
Konradexius graciously accepts the mug.
Yazriana seems a little tipsy from the Aerie Peak Pale Ale.
Ruzhia looks tipsy.
Cloudspur gently pats Wellington while looking up at Doskious.
Doskious says: The Dwarf and the Gnome and the Pet were visiting the brewery one day when a disaster struck! Meanwhile...
Konradexius fiddles with the faceplate of his helm and a section in front of his mouth hinges open.
Doskious taps Cloudspur.
Cloudspur says: Oh! Ahh.....
Cloudspur scratches her chin.
Doskious says: I believe the phrase is "You're up" my dear.
Malyris seems to be sobering up.
Yazriana smiles.
Reycied grins at the direction the story has taken, wordlessly holding up another mug of hot mulled cider for anyone to take.
Cloudspur says: Meanwhile, at the brewery's storefront, a beautiful Dwarf lady entered.
Cloudspur nudges Malyris.
Malyris says: Huh? What... Oh!
Malyris ponders.
Yazriana seems to be sobering up.
Konradexius drains a good portion of the mug, cringing slightly as some hot cider drips into his chestplate.
Malyris says: She said hello to the nice dwarf and his pet. They talked about the weather.
Yazriana giggles at Konradexius.
Cloudspur smirks.
Konradexius mumbles... "Don't want to stain the tabard..."
Daeliria smiles and motions for the story to continue.
Cloudspur eyes Konradexius. "Your turn, yes?"
Reycied smirks, watching the roundabout silently.
Yazriana pokes Konradexius. Hey!
Doskious looks around for the roundabout in alarm, not wanting to be issued a citation for improper yielding.
Konradexius says: I know, I know. Give a man time to think, eh?
Yazriana perks a brow.
Yazriana seems a little tipsy from the Aerie Peak Pale Ale.
Ruzhia seems to be sobering up.
Konradexius says: The two conversed pleasantly for a while, but, indeed disaster was striking nearby!
Cloudspur chuckles.
Yazriana smiles at Delcorian.
Konradexius grins at Doskious wickedly.
Doskious is attentive as Konradexius continues.
Malyris listens intently to Konradexius.
Doskious adjusts his Eye of Flame.
Konradexius says: As it happens, a mix-up in the directions and a new worker at the brewery resulted in an entire batch that was super-concentrated, and especially flammable as a consequence.
Daeliria says: ...Oh dear.
Yazriana seems to be sobering up.
Yazriana giggles.
Konradexius says: Someone else's turn...
Reycied cackles.
Delcorian says: It is mine then.
Delcorian thinks.
Doskious studies Reycied quietly.
Reycied looks a little embarrassed by the scrutiny...
Malyris says: Ack!
Cloudspur smiles and leans back against the cart.
Malyris says: Erm....
Cloudspur blinks at Malyris.
Daeliria blinks at Malyris.
Delcorian says: As the new worked taste tested the brew, he let out a large belch near a candle and there was a loud BOOM! heard through out the brewery. The poor new worker was sent back flying through the wall and into the storefront. Landing next to the Lady Dwarf.
Cloudspur says: That's odd.
Yazriana smiles at Malyris.
Doskious ponder Malyris's actions.
Malyris says: What's odd?
Daeliria gasps at Delcorian.
Cloudspur coughs lightly. "Nothing."
Cloudspur says: Oh, ouch.
Malyris says: Why is everybody lookin' at me?
Yazriana smiles and thinks a moment
Malyris gasps at Delcorian.
Delcorian says: Love, your turn.
Yazriana says: Aye...
Cloudspur grins wickedly at Malyris.
Yazriana says: The beautiful dwarf woman started laughing so hard she started to cry. Someone heard heard the loud noise outside and her crying and ran inside.
Konradexius rubs and scratches his pale hands before releasing a quiet "Bah!" and replacing his gauntlets.
Yazriana smiles and nods toward Reycied.
Malyris quietly snickers to herself.
Reycied thinks for a moment...
Doskious eyes Ruzhia quietly.
Daeliria says: Ruzhia?
Ruzhia shrugs. Who knows?
Ruzhia seems a little tipsy from the Loch Modan Lager.
Cloudspur blinks at Ruzhia.
Yazriana smiles at Ruzhia.
Ruzhia looks tipsy.
Reycied says: Wait...me, or Ruzhia?
Yazriana seems a little tipsy from the Aerie Peak Pale Ale.
Yazriana shrugs. Who knows?
Cloudspur nods at Ruzhia.
Malyris says: Either. Both.
Konradexius checks his mug. It remains empty.
Malyris says: Whatever.
Reycied laughs.
Cloudspur blinks at Malyris.
Ruzhia blinks.
Reycied says: Help yourself to more, Konrad...
Ruzhia says: ...what?
Cloudspur laughs at Ruzhia.
Delcorian says: Your turn to continue the story
Cloudspur says: Ah, well. You seem very distracted.
Ruzhia says: ...um. And there was a snake.
Doskious gazes intently at Konradexius' mug. It fails to combust.
Konradexius refills his mug to overflowing.
Cloudspur snorts.
Yazriana giggles.
Malyris gasps at Ruzhia.
Doskious adjusts his monocle.
Ruzhia gestures vaguely, and continues watching the perimeter.
Reycied says: Um...
Cloudspur lets out a hearty chuckle.
Reycied thinks about this for a moment...
Malyris quietly whines, "Why'd it have to be snakes?"
Reycied says: Yes, a snake that had slithered in from the outside to bite the poor worker! Seeing her new friend about to be bitten, the beautiful dwarf woman peeled off her disguise...
Reycied says: ...reavealing herself to be a crafty, but lonely Murloc, far from home!
Cloudspur boggles at Reycied.
Daeliria stares at Reycied, horrified.
Reycied folds his arms, smirking.
Yazriana giggles.
Delcorian smiles at Reycied.
Cloudspur says: Errrr....
Yazriana says: Globalglobalglawglaw
Yazriana seems to be sobering up.
Malyris laughs at Yazriana.
Delcorian laughs at Yazriana.
Daeliria turns her horrified stare to Yazriana.
Doskious applauds at Yazriana. Bravo!
Cloudspur claps a hand over her mouth.
Delcorian says: That was very good impersonation.
Konradexius says: Aye.
Reycied snickers.
Reycied says: Indeed...
Yazriana smirks.
Daeliria says: Um. And then the poor young Dwarf looked desperately around for his Gnome friend, who he hoped would come in and save the brewery from the marauding Murloc.
Daeliria shudders.
Cloudspur laughs.
Reycied says: Not a fan of Murlocs, I see...
Reycied leans forward, the firelight reflecting on the lenses of his glasses.
Daeliria edges backwards, staring perturbedly in turns at Reycied and Cloudspur.
Cloudspur says: Well, they're quite unfriendly. But this story has taken quite the turn...
Malyris agrees with Snowshoe Rabbit.
Daeliria mutters, "Figures I'm seated right between the two Murloc enthusiasts..."
Cloudspur shrugs at Daeliria. Who knows?
Reycied lowers his voice.
Yazriana says: I am not..fond of them. But I do not harbor any hatred for them.
Daeliria stares Reycied down.
Reycied smiles innocently.
Daeliria points at Reycied.
Malyris says: They're kinda cute... in a kinda icky way.
Daeliria says: Murloc infiltrator!
Ruzhia seems to be sobering up.
Cloudspur smirks.
Cloudspur says: Ah. Whose turn is it?
Reycied slaps his forehead, trying not to laugh.
Yazriana mumbles to herself "Now Grimtotem Taurens...grrr*"
Ruzhia says: Guildmistress?
Cloudspur says: Oh, she went.
Doskious says: The Gnome observed that Murlocs cannot peel off disguses, producing three blackboards of diagrams in support of his proof. The Murloc vanished in a puff of logic. Disaster dealt with, they went on to try to market their new brew.
Daeliria seems to realize how close to Cloudspur she is getting now, and retreats to a less murloc-infested place.
Cloudspur laughs.
Reycied looks at Doskious incredulously, then breaks out into a wide grin.
Cloudspur blinks at Doskious.
Yazriana looks in her mug again and pushes it further away.
Cloudspur says: You pulled a Gnomish conjecture on me? That's unfair!
Doskious says: Would you like to see the proofs?
Cloudspur crosses her arms and ponders sullenly.
Ruzhia puts away her sword.
Yazriana is very confused.
Cloudspur says: Absolutely not!
Doskious says: I only have one blackboard with me at present, so I'll either have to get two more, or erase twice.... <He trails off>
Reycied says: I'll be back in a moment...
Cloudspur scowls slightly.
Daeliria moves slowly back to her seat.
Cloudspur says: Umm....
Reycied comes back with a satisfied, impish look on his face.
Yazriana bites her lip and takes another swig.
Reycied says: Well...I suppose that about wraps up the story...
Delcorian says: Well, that seems to be the end of the story.
Yazriana nods at Reycied.
Doskious says: Nonsense!!
Delcorian says: Yes, I agree. Great ending. Very well done everyone.
Doskious looks flabbergasted.
Cloudspur scratches her head in confusion.
Malyris says: Except for the part where the snake, named Cuddles, is mercifully ejected into outer space.
Delcorian says: No? It is not done?
Daeliria looks dreadfully confused.
Daeliria says: ...let's have another story, one without murlocs.
Yazriana says: hmmm. Might I suggest something? Perhaps we could introduce ourselves properly and tell a lil bit about ourselves.
Cloudspur squints at Wellington: "Yes, yes, I know. I think it's the drink."
Reycied grins.
Yazriana says: Maybe a small story about each of us.
Cloudspur says: Hmm.
Malyris mutters something under her breath about snakes.
Daeliria says: Do go ahead.
Ruzhia's face tightens slightly, then relaxes into its usual blankness.
Delcorian says: I will go first.
Cloudspur eyes Ruzhia.
Doskious consults his Pocket Guide to Snakes in Dark Passes.
Yazriana gives a smile to Del
Delcorian says: Hello eveyone. I am Delcorian Marr. Husband to Yazriana.
Reycied says: How many of those do you HAVE, Doskious...?
Malyris says: A bajillion.
Reycied smiles at Delcorian.
Delcorian says: We came to these lands from a far away place.
Doskious says: I have a Pocket Guide to Pocket Guides, if you'd like to have a look...
Cloudspur grunts at Doskious. "Sit down already!"
Delcorian says: At the time of our journey, I was a great warrior. A Berserker one would say.
Doskious sits with alacrity.
Daeliria tilts her head, listening to Delcorian.
Konradexius says: The better question is how many pockets he has...
Delcorian says: If I tasted blood, it sent me into a furious rage.
Malyris says: Just one really big one.
Cloudspur says: Sounds dangerous...
Reycied says: Oi...
Delcorian says: Yaz and I could take on many enemies and be victorious.
Doskious listens attentively to Delcorian.
Malyris listens intently to Delcorian.
Delcorian says: Until one day when we were helping a group of villiagers that were attack by Orcs.
Konradexius says: The pairing of warrior and priest is potent indeed.
Konradexius nods at Daeliria.
Delcorian says: I became so enraged, that and I slayed many Orcs, I turned and hit a village person.
Reycied winces, looking sympathetic.
Delcorian says: He was running to me for help and I thought he was another Orc trying to get my back.
Cloudspur grimaces slightly.
Delcorian says: At that moment, I realized I need to get away and change my ways.
Konradexius stares intently at Delcorian.
Doskious nods.
Delcorian says: We left our lands and traveled all over. Ending here, where I follow the ways of a Paladin.
Malyris stares intently at something shiny.
Delcorian says: That is my story.
Delcorian says: Thank you.
Reycied smiles warmly.
Daeliria nods slowly.
Yazriana smiles at Delcorian.
Malyris says: Huh?
Cloudspur smiles and nods.
Malyris claps excitedly.
Ruzhia says: Hm.
Ruzhia salutes Delcorian with respect.
Yazriana smiles at Ruzhia.
Delcorian salutes Ruzhia with respect.
Konradexius says: Do be wary of the fire Ruzhia.
Yazriana says: I suppose I shall go next. *she smiles*
Daeliria smiles at Yazriana.
Yazriana says: I am Yazriana...as you know. *she winks*. I travel far and wide to collect pets..though there was once it almost cost me my life.
Yazriana says: This fellow here...almost cost me my life
Yazriana says: I was trying to save them when Delcorian and I were over-run.
Daeliria's gaze flickers between the Sprite Darter Hatchling and Delcorian.
Yazriana says: I ..ended up missing and Delcorian started a rescue mission to find me.
Cloudspur says: Oh my.
Daeliria says: What had happened to you?
Yazriana says: When I awoke..I was locked in the cage with many of these little dartlings and could not get out.
Yazriana says: Delcorian rallied a force in Stormwind and came rushing to find me. He followed clues and with luck found me.
Reycied looks touched.
Reycied says: How sweet.
Yazriana says: So with help of many...I was saved.
Malyris says: Awww..
Daeliria smiles at Yazriana.
Yazriana says: So...this guy...he is my favorite pet of all. Reminds me of Delcorian's love and honor.
Yazriana bows before Ruzhia.
Cloudspur smiles at Yazriana.
Delcorian blows Yazriana a kiss.
Konradexius give Delcorian a hearty pat on the back.
Doskious applauds. Bravo!
Ruzhia says: That's...
Ruzhia 's eyes unfocus briefly.
Ruzhia says: Very touching.
Yazriana smiles and pats Del's back.
Reycied says: Ruzhia? Are you going to grace us?
Ruzhia pauses, looking in her blank manner at Reycied, Malyris, and Konradexius in turn.
Ruzhia says: ...pardon me, please.
Ruzhia takes an open slug of liqour.
Ruzhia seems a little tipsy from the Don Carlos Tequila.
Daeliria watches silently.
Doskious says: I pardon you for any actions taken against any within my dominion, Ruzhia.
Reycied blinks in surprise.
Ruzhia lets out a hacking cough.
Cloudspur looks up at Doskious with confusion.
Malyris giggles.
Ruzhia says: My name is Ruzhia T'kaensh Valos.
Ruzhia eyes the locals in the group.
Doskious consults his Pocket Guide to Informal Pardons.
Ruzhia says: ...so you've not heard.
Malyris says: Go, Rhubarb!
Malyris cheers at Ruzhia!
Delcorian says: Heard of what?
Malyris is hopelessly confused.
Doskious remains quiet.
Ruzhia says: ...
Malyris says: Maybe I wrote it...
Malyris checks her arm.
Yazriana listens hoping the ale has not made her mind too fuzzy.
Daeliria keeps a steady gaze on Ruzhia.
Malyris says: Nope! Not there! So it must not be worth rememberin'!
Malyris glances nervously at Ruzhia.
Cloudspur peers at Ruzhia searchingly.
Ruzhia seems to be sobering up.
Ruzhia says: My lover d...no. I killed him. Years ago. I'm...not welcome in polite society anymore.
Malyris says: Unless you think it's important. Then I'll try real hard to.
Cloudspur gasps at Ruzhia.
Malyris nods sagely.
Reycied watches patiently, wordlessly.
Delcorian says: Why did you do it?
Yazriana looks upon Ruzhia with kind eyes not judging
Malyris writes down, "Rhubard's lover d... no. Buy groceries."
Ruzhia says: Stupid pride.
Malyris says: Gotta pick up food.
Malyris nods.
Ruzhia says: He...loved me. I was beautiful, rich, the daughter of the wealthiest merchants...
Ruzhia says: And I toyed with him. Broke him.
Cloudspur absentmindedly pets her rabbit while looking on.
Ruzhia seems a little tipsy from the Don Carlos Tequila.
Reycied frowns thoughtfully, glancing down into his cider.
Yazriana lets out a small breath of air and then rises to her feet. She then opens her arms to Ruzhia..for a hug if she should want one.
Ruzhia says: Anyway. He's dead now, and I'm a solider. Was.
Cloudspur says: Pride?
Cloudspur frowns into the fire.
Malyris writes, "Rhubarb loves toys, but breaks them a lot."
Yazriana says: No one of us is perfect or without mistakes.
Ruzhia eyes Yazriana coolly, the alcohol having no obvious effect.
Ruzhia says: That is the gods' eternal truth.
Yazriana lets her arms fall back to her sides but offers a small smile.
Ruzhia says: Please excuse me.
Reycied frowns and swigs the last of his cider.
Ruzhia seems to be sobering up.
Ruzhia seems a little tipsy from the Don Carlos Tequila.
Cloudspur looks on with some perturbation.
Yazriana closes her eyes a moment and silently utters a prayer for Ruzhia.
Reycied says: Hmm...

Delcorian says: Please excuse me for a moment.
Reycied says: Of course...
Delcorian says: Ruzhia. Do not be so hard on yourself...
Delcorian says: That was in the past. We can all make up for what we had done.
Ruzhia cocks her crossbow.
Cloudspur eyes Ruzhia's crossbow nervously.
Ruzhia says: I think I hear something. Please go back to the fire.
Delcorian looks around quickly...
Malyris hums merrily.
Daeliria stares into the fire, pondering what life story she can drag out without making the evening even gloomier.
Yazriana says: Let us give her some space...she is being harsh on herself.
Delcorian says: Well, if you need someone to talk to, I am here to listen.
Doskious says: Graz'gore, a moment's reprieve.
Reycied sets his cup aside.
Cloudspur sighs and scratches her ear lightly.
Delcorian puts away his axe
Daeliria says: Well then.
Ruzhia lets out a long, drawn-out sigh.
Ruzhia is getting drunk off of Loch Modan Lager.
Cloudspur says: The poor woman. I do wonder what happened, but.. that's for another time, eh.
Reycied says: Indeed...
Malyris nods.
Daeliria takes on a brighter aspect.
Malyris says: What'd I just agree to?
Doskious grins slowly.
Cloudspur elbows Malyris. "Nothing. Just don't stick your mug near the fire."
Daeliria says: Rey, if you would relate the story you have been hinting about for a few days now?
Reycied says: Oh, that old thing? It's not exactly a brief story...
Cloudspur smiles slightly. "I doubt that matters."
Reycied says: Nor is it terribly cheerful.
Reycied stands up, blushing.
Cloudspur tilts her head.
Reycied says: My name is Reycied Denhall Moonblade, Knight of the Sha'tar. And...
Yazriana watches Reycied with interest a moment.
Delcorian listens to Reycied.
Reycied says: ...well...I'm not terribly interesting.
Malyris is listening!
Reycied grins sheepishly.
Cloudspur snorts slightly.
Daeliria says: Nonsense.
Reycied removes his glasses, looking embarrassed.
Yazriana says: Almost everyone is interesting. Even dwarfes. *she giggles*
Reycied says: Well...if you insist...
Yazriana nods at Reycied.
Ruzhia looks drunk.
Reycied glances up. His eyes are a clear, crisp turquoise, the color of tropic seas, pulsing faintly with an inner light.
Reycied says: There's a reason my eyes are this way. I was riding through Feathermoon some months ago, doing what I could to further the cause of the Light in other lands and whatnot...
Reycied says: I received a missive from the Church instructing me to investigate Blackrock Spire.
Reycied sighs.
Daeliria listens intently to Reycied.
Reycied says: I wasn't ready at all. Two weeks later found me fighting for my life against sixteen orc berserkers, each the better fighter.
Malyris listens intently to Reycied.
Yazriana shivers remember her last trip there..unpleasant.
Cloudspur says: Quite the number..
Reycied says: Yes, well...I took a sword through the chest, arrows in the back and an axe across the gut...which spilled me into the lava below.
Daeliria winces.
Yazriana bites her lip and winces slightly as she listens.
Konradexius's face is unreadable behind his helmet.
Yazriana rubs her leg already feeling the sympathy pains throbbing through her.
Reycied says: I could feel my flesh melting away...it was in my eyes, down my throat. I knew I was dying, and I welcomed the darkness as it closed in on me.
Malyris looks in awe at the Sprite Darter Hatchling.
Doskious adjusts his monocle.
Yazriana says: But how did you survive?
Reycied says: ...and then, I could hear a heartbeat in the darkness. Far away, I saw a figure I recognized from statues and portraits to be Uther the Lightbringer. It was both terrifying and wonderful, like being in the presence of a lion.
Reycied smiles softly at Yaz. "I'm coming to that."
Malyris makes another note, "Rey... likes sprite darters," then crosses it out.
Malyris says: No, no. That's not right.
Delcorian says: Wow. You saw Uther?
Yazriana's eyes widen with awe as she listens.
Malyris tries to have better listening comprehension.
Reycied says: He said to me the most anticlimactic thing I've ever heard..."Boy! What do you think you're doing giving up so easily?"
Doskious listens quietly.
Malyris writes, "Rey is uber."
Cloudspur chuckles.
Daeliria listens, smiling.
Reycied says: "You still have too much to do to die here," he said...and from the heartbeat I heard a sound...a chime. It lifted me up. I know it now to be the sound of the naaru.
Ruzhia looks tipsy.
Reycied says: I awoke on a safe patch of land, close to the magma, unharmed. My eyes had changed color. My hair had lightened, and I had this...
Malyris writes, "Windchimes... possible gift?"
Reycied pulls his right glove off and holds up the shining, glowing symbol of A'dal on his hand.
Malyris gently pats Mechanical Yeti.
Delcorian looks at his hand.
Cloudspur peers at Reycied's hand.
Yazriana says: oooo that is ....magnificent.
Delcorian says: Yes indeed.
Reycied says: My power with the Light had increased sevenfold...and well...
Yazriana says: You are truly blessed
Malyris says: Ooh, shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiny.
Reycied looks around and concludes rather lamely.
Reycied says: That's...um...that's that.
Malyris says: Isn't that right Mr. Yetison?
Daeliria smiles and sits back, nodding in comprehension.
Delcorian claps excitedly for Reycied.
Malyris listens intently to Mechanical Yeti.
Cloudspur grins and nods.
Malyris says: He says it's shiny too.
Doskious nods once.
Konradexius nods to Recied.
Reycied flushes a darker shade of red and sits back down, apparently endeavoring to make himself small.
Konradexius says: Dae? It is your turn.
Daeliria smiles, twisting her hands in her lap.
Cloudspur turns her attention to Daeliria.
Daeliria says: ...perhaps if the rest of you finished first.
Cloudspur blinks at Daeliria.
Reycied says: Oh, bollox...I had to tell my boring story...
Cloudspur ponders the situation.
Yazriana winks slyly at Reycied.
Doskious says: Daeliria has her reasons.
Daeliria says: It was not a boring story.
Reycied sticks his tongue out.
Yazriana says: Not boring at all
Reycied says: Feh.
Konradexius says: She'll simply tell her story last. It's fine.
Cloudspur says: Mm.
Malyris says: Certainly not. It had shinies.
Cloudspur looks around. "My turn? Doskious?"
Reycied looks across the fire at Malyris with a curious look, waving the glowing symbol of the naaru back and forth.
Malyris 's eyes follow the pretty light.
Ruzhia eyes the group, then returns to her self-imposed watch.
Doskious says: Cloudspur, pray proceed if that is your wish.
Yazriana says: I am so sorry to say this but...
Cloudspur says: Very well...
Reycied nods, as if to say "I see..." and turns to watch the speaker.
Cloudspur says: Hm?
Malyris says: Ack, story!
Yazriana says: I need to head back.
Reycied pulls his glove back on.
Malyris is listening!
Cloudspur smiles and nods.
Malyris says: Awww.
Cloudspur says: As you will. Take care.
Malyris says: Take care.
Yazriana says: I...*she doesn't want to say* Am sorry.
Delcorian says: As do I.
Malyris waves goodbye to everyone. Farewell!
Reycied says: Farewell, my friends.
Daeliria says: No matter. Stay safe.
Ruzhia seems to be sobering up.
Yazriana is still feeling sympathy pains in her legs from Rey's story
Doskious says: Take care, both of you.
Delcorian says: It was nice meeting you all.
Malyris waves at Delcorian.
Malyris waves at Yazriana.
Konradexius says: Farewell, and good travels.
Delcorian bows down graciously.
Ruzhia curtsies.
Konradexius bows before Reycied.
Delcorian says: We shall do this again soon.
Cloudspur waves goodbye to everyone. Farewell!
Daeliria waves.
Ruzhia says: No offense intended, but woul you like an escort?
Delcorian says: We will be using our stones to get back.
Ruzhia nods.
Yazriana says: I thank you but I shall use my stones..I don't think I... It will be faster.
Delcorian says: Thank you for the offer though.
Ruzhia says: Another time, then.
Yazriana bows before Reycied.
Delcorian says: Yes.
Reycied bows down graciously.
Yazriana doesn't seem well but hard to say if it was the booze she drank or something else.
Yazriana says: So nice to meet you all. Again I apologize.
Cloudspur says: No worries.
Malyris says: Is fine.
Delcorian says: Safe Travels.
Doskious says: Think nothing of it.
Malyris nods sagely.
Delcorian bows before Daeliria.
Daeliria says: Stars guide you.
Ruzhia says: Hot meals.
Reycied says: Light be with you.
Malyris says: What he said.
Delcorian waves goodbye to everyone. Farewell!
Yazriana waves goodbye to everyone. Farewell!
Daeliria smiles at Yazriana.
Malyris says: ... Where's the yeti?
Malyris looks about.
Konradexius stands at attention and salutes.
Cloudspur smirks slyly at Malyris.
Yazriana winks slyly.
Cloudspur says: I think he ran away.
Malyris yells: MR. YETISON? WHERE ARE YOU
Malyris gasps at Cloudspur.
Daeliria blinks at Malyris.
Cloudspur settles back against the cart.
Malyris says: No!
Cloudspur says: I'm joking!
Yazriana has gone offline.
Ruzhia says: Yeti are notorious philanderers.
Malyris says: ... Oh.
Delcorian has gone offline.
Doskious confers with Graz'gore.
Reycied says: He's probably out propositioning a Yeti of the night.
Cloudspur says: Philanderers...
Daeliria settles down again.
Cloudspur lightly scratches her ear.
Choosing a different seat, Doskious levitates, not wanting to dirty his clothes.
Daeliria peers at Doskious searchingly.
Malyris peers at Doskious searchingly.
Malyris kneels down.
Malyris says: Wooooooooow....
Malyris lies down.
Malyris says: Ooooh.
Daeliria says: ...shifting spots won't get you out of relating tales.
Daeliria grins at Doskious wickedly.
Konradexius says: Also, it should be Cloudspur's turn.
Doskious adjusts his monocle.
Malyris writes, "Shifting spots fixes everything."
Cloudspur blinks.
Cloudspur says: Oh! Oh, right. Hmm.
Malyris writes in block lettering, "EVERYTHING!"
Cloudspur clears her throat and pats off some dust.
Doskious says: I would consult a Leopard before trusting that last note, Malyris...
Cloudspur says: Though I entered Eilon's fold overnight and without fanfare, I actually had some idea about existing members since it was my older sister who suggested I join.
Cloudspur winks slyly.
Malyris says: ... Huh?
Cloudspur says: My name is Cloudspur. Cloudspur Starstrand.
Reycied arches a brow.
Daeliria smiles knowingly.
Cloudspur smiles.
Malyris ponders the situation.
Cloudspur says: Well, what the veteran members do not know is why Mniaron left suddenly and without a word.
Malyris says: Mnia?
Malyris looks about for a druid-bear.
Cloudspur nods at Malyris.
Cloudspur says: There was a family emergency.
Ruzhia grunts softly. "Hunh. Mniaron."
Cloudspur says: You see, our father is also a druid of the Cenarion Circle.
Cloudspur says: But my sister had received word that he had become an Unwaking while in the Emerald Dream.
Reycied leans forward.
Cloudspur says: That is to say--since I don't expect you to understand our druid ways--he will not wake up.
Malyris writes, "Could use a nap."
Cloudspur smirks slyly at Malyris.
Konradexius says: Ah.
Cloudspur says: And so she set off immediately to complete her training as quickly as possible, with the intent to follow him and... find him.
Daeliria says: Like Shan'do Stormrage.
Cloudspur says: She will enter the Emerald Dream in time as well.
Cloudspur says: Indeed.
Malyris writes, "Cloud's dad likes to sleep in on Sundays."
Cloudspur says: And I--well, I was originally a warrior, but I decided to also follow the path of druidism since the Circle opened its doors to Kaldorei women.
Cloudspur says: I needed a place to stay, though, and Mnia suggested her old group. Of course.
Cloudspur says: Perhaps someday, we can find our father. Though currently I'm worried about my sister's intent to join the Emerald Dream...
Daeliria nods.
Cloudspur coughs lightly.
Doskious says: My sincerest sympathies, both to you and Mniaron. The Emerald Dream is ... no trifling matter.
Cloudspur says: Yes, the Nightmare is not something I like to think about.
Cloudspur says: And here I am.
Reycied listens intently to Cloudspur.
Cloudspur bows slightly.
Cloudspur sighs and pats her rabbit.
Daeliria smiles at Cloudspur, though with concern and sadness in her expression.
Doskious says: If I or my wards can be of any assistance to your family in your quest, please do not hesitate to ask.
Cloudspur smiles weakly and shrugs. "The training will be interesting."
Cloudspur says: My thanks.
Doskious nods.
Daeliria shifts her attention to Doskious.
Ruzhia seems a little tipsy from the Loch Modan Lager.
Ruzhia looks tipsy.
Ruzhia is getting drunk off of Aerie Peak Pale Ale.
Konradexius stares Doskious down.
Reycied glances down at his chest suddenly. The rubies on his pendant are flashing softly, but silently.
Malyris says: Hrn...
Malyris scribbles some secret notes.
Reycied says: I'm afraid I must go...I'm sorry to leave so soon...
Cloudspur eyes Reycied up and down.
Cloudspur nods.
Cloudspur says: You must go when you must.
Konradexius says: Ah. Very well.
Cloudspur grins faintly.
Konradexius bows before Reycied.
Malyris waves goodbye to Reycied. Farewell!
Daeliria says: Do take care, then.
Cloudspur waves goodbye to Reycied. Farewell!
Ruzhia says: Ha. We all go when we must.
Reycied says: Thank you for welcoming me to your fire, my friends. It has been a pleasure...
Doskious says: A pity. Best of luck.
Cloudspur chuckles slightly at Ruzhia.
Reycied grins and waves at everyone.
Malyris says: Lots of luck!
Doskious says: Fare thee well, as they say...
Ruzhia curtsies before Reycied.
Reycied says: Thanks!
Konradexius says: I expect to meet you again so that we may test our skill at arms like you said.
Konradexius stands at attention and salutes.
Cloudspur grins wickedly at Konradexius.
Ruzhia says: Never before...
Daeliria blinks at Ruzhia.
Konradexius says: What's that Rue?
Ruzhia looks tipsy.
Cloudspur peers at Ruzhia searchingly.
Ruzhia says: I shaid that this has been an...enlightening conversation. I'm eager to hear more. Yes, eager. ...hic!
Cloudspur blinks at Ruzhia.
Cloudspur says: Erm, yes, yes.
Daeliria gazes steadily at Ruzhia.
Konradexius says: Well, Dosk?
Doskious consults his Pocket Guide to Disarming Deflection.
Malyris scribbles another note before hurriedly yankng down her sleeve.
Doskious says: My story has a small bearing on that of our Guildmistress. In that light, I do beg your indulgence, and allow me to refrain at present.
Cloudspur blinks at Doskious.
Daeliria smiles.
Daeliria says: Very well, if you choose to play that card.
Malyris says: We're playing cards?
Malyris says: FULL HOUSE! BOOYAH!
Doskious says: My story would serve as a useful preface to yours, m'Lady.
Malyris frowns.
Malyris says: No wait... no.
Daeliria smiles at Doskious.
Malyris says: Tha's not right.
Konradexius's eyes dart between Doskious and Daeliria.
Cloudspur looks on with curiosity.
Daeliria grins amusedly at Konradexius.
Daeliria says: Maly?
Malyris glances away from the dirt.
Malyris says: Hrm?
Konradexius says: Story?
Malyris says: Story? Oh yes, I would love to hear one!
Malyris nods.
Daeliria says: So would we.
Malyris says: Hrm...
Malyris puts a hand to her chin.
Ruzhia seems to be sobering up.
Konradexius says: Maly, tell us a story about yourself. And quit doodling on your arm, you'll stain your dress.
Malyris says: Maybe Graz'gore's got a tale or two.
Malyris points at Graz'gore.
Malyris says: Well, Graz'gore, we're waiting...
Doskious listens to Graz'gore's demonic speech.
Doskious says: Graz'gore declines to share his story with us unless he is allowed to be freed from my service. I recommend strongly against this.
Daeliria coughs softly.
Daeliria says: Wise of you. Maly?
Malyris says: Hrm...
Malyris says: H'okay...
Malyris clears her throat.
Malyris clears her throat again.
Cloudspur eyes Malyris up and down.
Malyris checks arm. "Oh drat. Hrm... h'okay. Guess I'll have to wing it."
Cloudspur says: Nothing wrong with that.
Cloudspur smiles at Malyris.
Malyris says: Well, all of you know who I am... I think. 'cept for Mnia's sister... and maybe me...
Malyris is hopelessly confused.
Cloudspur smiles encouragingly.
Cloudspur says: She made some mention. Nothing bad, mind you.
Cloudspur winks slyly.
Malyris says: Anyways, I am Maladin the Paladin, Mal, Maly, MalyPally and any other ways people like shortening or.... longening?.... my name.
Malyris says: Which is Malyris.
Malyris nods sagely.
Ruzhia looks back over her shoulder. "Malyris."
Malyris says: I haven't got much in the ways of story, because I don't really remember stuff much. I borrowed Doskerson's "Pocket Guide to a Better Memory"....
Malyris says: But I lost it.
Daeliria says: Aww.
Daeliria smiles at Malyris.
Cloudspur raises an eyebrow.
Doskious says: You gave it back to me, Maly.
Malyris blinks at Doskious.
Cloudspur hides a chuckle.
Malyris says: I did?
Doskious produces his Pocket Guide to a Better Memory. It is worn, wrinkled, ink-stained, and smudged.
Malyris peers at the book.
Malyris says: Ah, well so I did!
Doskious pockets the book.
Malyris says: I also remember it being like that when I got it.
Malyris nods sagely.

Post by Doskious Steele on Jan 21, 2008 18:44:06 GMT -5
Malyris says: But wow, I actually managed to return something!
Cloudspur laughs.
Malyris says: That hasn't happened in... I dunno how long!
Daeliria smiles at Malyris.
Malyris cheers!
Daeliria says: Maybe you always did but forgot that you did?
Malyris says: Woo!
Konradexius chuckles at Malyris.
Cloudspur says: I wonder if Doskious here can think of a creative Gnomish invention to help in such matters.
Cloudspur ponders and grins.
Malyris says: Maybe you're right.
Malyris shrugs. Who knows?
Doskious says: I've often maintained that Malyris has at least as good a forgettery as a memory.
Cloudspur snorts.
Malyris says: Anyway, I've been talking for a huge long time, so maybe I should let someone else have a turn.
Daeliria grins at Doskious wickedly.
Malyris says: Thanks all.
Malyris curtsies.
Daeliria smiles at Malyris.
Cloudspur grins wickedly at Malyris.
Konradexius says: That's me, then.
Daeliria says: Aye.
Doskious says: Most mentalic devices are ... delicate ... in nature. Also intricate.
Cloudspur turns her attention to Konradexius.
Cloudspur says: Mm.
Doskious listens to Konradexius.
Malyris says: Ooh, big words.
Malyris listens intently to Konradexius.
Konradexius says: My full name is Konradexius Terexialus Askaxarus.
Malyris leans over and whispers, "I think he beat you Doskerson."
Konradexius says: I don't expect you to remember anything past Konrad, quite frankly.
Daeliria smiles at Konradexius.
Cloudspur raises and eyebrow.
Malyris says: Phew.
Konradexius says: If you're wondering, the name is Draconic. I have no idea what it means, if anything.
Doskious consults his Pocket Guide to Common Draconic Expressions. The Guide is 3 pages long.
Doskious lets out a long, drawn-out sigh.
Malyris reads over his shoulder. "Ooh, please don't eat me." That's a useful one, that is.
Daeliria says: Go on?
Konradexius says: I started adventuring young, and lent my force at arms to anyone who could return the favor, through money, or any other little thing that I needed.
Konradexius says: I spent brief periods aligned with minor guilds, before they collapsed or merged into a larger one and left me out.
Konradexius says: Not that I really minded. Put bluntly, many of my guildmates were as useful and interesting as small stones.
Daeliria says: I believe that when we first met you called yourself the Guildbreaker.
Malyris says: Hey, small stones are good for lots of things!
Malyris says: Like... um...
Daeliria says: Slingshots, Maly."
Malyris puts a hand to her chin in deep thought.
Malyris says: Yes!
Konradexius says: Did I? Perhaps. I watched multiple guilds die slowly, although to a rational point of view I had nothing to do with it.
Daeliria says: You did not.
Daeliria says: Nevertheless, you used the term in jest.
Konradexius says: I eventually met up with a Paladin, by the name of Merloc.
Daeliria's eyes glaze over for a moment.
Konradexius says: He invited me to his guild after he and another guild member saved me from a sudden pack of gorillas in Stranglethorn. The guild was named Honor Before Death.
Cloudspur says: A fine sentiment.
Daeliria says: Indeed.
Malyris agrees with Daeliria.
Konradexius says: I accepted, and quickly found myself amongst some of the most pleasant and intelligent people I've ever known. Merloc was particularly kind, and he showed great interest in accelerating my training and strength.
Malyris says: What'm I.. oh, forget it. Go on!
Ruzhia's head turns slightly at the mention of "Murloc", and again her hand falls upon her hilt as she listens to the conversation.
Konradexius says: You may be familiar with the greatsword referred to as Destiny?
Daeliria says: I'm afraid not.
Cloudspur ponders the situation.
Cloudspur says: Me neither, sorry.
Ruzhia coughs.
Ruzhia says: I am.
Cloudspur peers at Ruzhia.
Ruzhia says: It's a beautiful weapon. Very...
Ruzhia says: ...efficient.
Malyris says: What's this about fishing?
Malyris says: Whoops! Sorry!
Malyris listens intently to Konradexius.
Konradexius says: Well, it is a Blade of great power that bestows strength to the wielder in combat. It is worth a fortune if it can be found.
Konradexius says: I don't know how he acquired it, but he gave it to me as a gift.
Daeliria blinks, startled.
Cloudspur says: How kind of him.
Doskious says: Indeed.
Malyris writes, "Big shiny swords make good gifts."
Ruzhia looks back again, the slightest hint of alarm on her face.
Ruzhia says: You...held Destiny?
Konradexius says: Yes.
Ruzhia says: And you did...what?
Konradexius says: I decided then that I would devote myself to this man, and the guild he had forged. These times were good times.
Cloudspur smiles. "Loyalty is a fine thing when shared in equity."
Ruzhia says: Hm. Good.
Daeliria listens intently to Konradexius.
Konradexius says: I served under the banner of Honor Before Death for a long time. We became like brothers and sisters, and we conquered innumerable foes while banded together.
Konradexius says: And then... Merloc vanished. It seemed like he faded out of exsistence.
Cloudspur blinks at Konradexius.
Cloudspur says: That's terrible!
Konradexius says: I really can't explain any more than that.
Daeliria says: Hmm...
Cloudspur says: So no one knows what happened to him, then?
Konradexius says: Aye. The guild was placed in the command of a rogue we called "Sneeky".
Cloudspur says: Huh...
Ruzhia spits on the ground.
Ruzhia says: Fitting.
Cloudspur says: That seems, errr.... odd.
Cloudspur mumbles, "Suspicious."
Konradexius says: She was competent, but did not enjoy leadership. The guild did persist for a while afterwards, but eventually the members began to find loyalties elsewhere.
Cloudspur says: Ah.
Daeliria says: And then...?
Konradexius says: I fell out of adventuring for a time after that. Most of the old members had rejoined into the same guild, but it never had the same sense of completeness to it. No unity.
Cloudspur says: That's unfortunate.
Cloudspur absentmindedly pets Wellington.
Konradexius says: And, well, after that I was welcomed into the guild, with little fanfare, by Daeliria.
Konradexius kneels before Daeliria.
Daeliria grins slightly.
Cloudspur smiles.
Daeliria says: There's never any fanfare, for anyone.
Konradexius says: Too true.
Konradexius smiles at Daeliria.
Ruzhia says: And the sword?
Konradexius says: I am comfortable here. Eilon Kaerannis has the unity that I missed.
Daeliria says: And we are very grateful you are one of us.
Doskious says: To be sure!
Konradexius says: Thank you.
Konradexius says: As for the sword....
Konradexius says: After Honor Before Death collapsed, I found a young, fresh warrior and bestowed it upon him.
Cloudspur says: That was generous.
Ruzhia says: That was just.
Ruzhia sketches a Stormwind Infantry salute towards Konrad.
Konradexius says: By his guidance, my power had grown to the point that I did not truly need it.
Konradexius says: I am finished.
Cloudspur nods thoughtfully.
Ruzhia slowly hands Konrad a small cask from the back of her saddlepacks.
Doskious says: Very well. As I indicated before, there are parts of my tale that bear relation to segments of Daeliria's.
Konradexius glances sideways at Rue, shrugs slightly and takes a drink.
Konradexius seems a little tipsy from the Molasses Firewater.
Ruzhia nods to herself.
Cloudspur turns her attention to the Gnome.
Konradexius says: Ah, good stuff. Thank you, Rue.
Malyris says: A bear? Where?
Doskious says: But I will start from the beginning, and tell you my story without aside, and let you draw your own connections hereafter.
Ruzhia says: Think nothing of it. I won't.
Daeliria nods at Doskious.
Cloudspur blinks at Malyris.
Malyris says: I heard bears.
Cloudspur says: Uh, no...
Ruzhia says: Where?!
Malyris says: Or a bear.
Malyris shrugs. Who knows?
Cloudspur eyes Ruzhia up and down.
Ruzhia says: Where?!
Malyris says: Someone mentioned a bear.
Cloudspur blinks with perplexity. "I don't think so."
Doskious says: My early life was as many other Gnomes'. I learned to tinker and mechanicalize with the rest of them.
Ruzhia glares angrily at Cloudspur.
Cloudspur nonchalantly pets her rabbit.
Doskious says: I was ... away ... when Gnomeregan fell.
Konradexius seems to be sobering up.
Daeliria chuckles dryly.
Ruzhia looms quietly over Malyris as she listens.
Cloudspur looks at Doskious with some sympathy.
Doskious says: At the time I was living in Lordaeron.
Daeliria says: Oh?
Malyris glances over her shoulder.
Malyris says: Hum?
Ruzhia LOOMS.
Doskious says: Rather than dealing with the conjoining of the Trogg uprising and the inevitable outcome of the hubris of the Master Engineers of Gnomeregan, I had the Scourge to deal with.
Doskious says: I should have much preferred the other, I assure you.
Malyris says: Want some Dark Dwarven Lager? The dwarf who gave it to me said was delicious, but it makes my head feel funny.
Ruzhia looks at Malyris with crossed eyes.
Cloudspur peers at Ruzhia searchingly.
Doskious says: Nevertheless, I played the hand that fate had dealt me...
Daeliria says: I would imagine so.
Cloudspur shrugs lightly.
Doskious says: ... Played until I could change the cards.
Doskious says: I undertook the path of the Warlock.
Malyris nods sagely at Ruzhia.
Doskious says: If the Lich King commanded minions, clearly the best response was to develop a force whereby a minion could deal with a minion, leaving the masters to confront each other. Such was the arrogance of my thinking.
Cloudspur says: I don't have experience in the, err, fel arts, but... that would seem logical.
Doskious says: Indubitably.
Ruzhia raises a drink to Malyris. Cheers!
Ruzhia seems a little tipsy from the Dark Dwarven Lager.
Malyris cheers at Ruzhia!
Ruzhia looks tipsy.
Doskious says: I had some moderate success, but nothing of especial note. I realized that my efforts were too paltry. I searched for a way to cross my Fel arts and my Engineering talents.
Doskious says: I found that the way before me had been traversed before.
Doskious says: Another Gnome, a Grandmaster Engineer, had performed experiments relating to the Twisting Nether, and a method to bring the fight more fully to the enemy, be it Scourge or Demon.
Doskious says: He asked for my assistance in the testing of his device. I accepted.
Cloudspur says: That sounds ominous.
Doskious says: After much work, he activated the machine, and let the Fel powers I provided course across the contacts to energize a portal.
Daeliria says: And you were not concerned for your own safety?
Doskious creates a Greater Soulstone.
Doskious holds forth the Greater Soulstone.
Daeliria says: Ah. Well, then.
Cloudspur says: Hm. Convenient.
Doskious says: With this protecting me, what need have I of the fear of Death?
Cloudspur blinks at Konradexius.
Daeliria says: I did not mention Death, I specified Safety.
Ruzhia eyes the object dispassionately.
Ruzhia seems to be sobering up.
Ruzhia says: What need?
Ruzhia gestures to the gnome to continue.
Doskious says: I command the wills of Demons, I bend the fabric of reality to my will, and I hold within my grasp the very essence of Fear itself. I was unconcerned with such things.
Doskious says: I entered the portal.
Doskious says: I found myself in the same room, at the same time of day, but with no machine, no Grandmaster, and no signs that an Engineering Laboratory had ever been in place.
Daeliria nods slowly, her expression unreadable.
Cloudspur says: Er..... That's confusing.
Doskious says: I left his abode, and returned to Ironforge, only to find that my rooms were not registered, my friends were absent, and my guild was unknown.
Daeliria continues nodding.
Doskious says: My vault, however, was fully intact and registered with the Bank Dwarves.
Malyris continueds muttering while staring into the fire and suddenly perks up.
Daeliria half smiles.
Malyris says: Huh?
Malyris nods.
Cloudspur scratches her ear. "Curious."
Malyris says: Do go on.
Doskious says: I concluded that something had gone awry, and that the only thing to be done was research and experiment.
Doskious says: I threw myself into my studies, and pressed rapidly forward with my Warlock training.
Doskious says: I met some helpful folks, and made some new friends, but for the most part devoted my time to my studies.
Doskious says: I concluded that somehow I had shifted to another, identical, world. ... Nearly identical.
Daeliria says: Nearly.
Cloudspur says: Huh...
Malyris nods.
Doskious says: I resolved to attempt to return, if only to inform the Grandmaster that his device was faulty. I constructed a ritual based on the Demon Summonses I had learned and supplemented with Engineering principles I had developed.
Malyris writes, "Give Dosk a ride to Demon Court. Buy vitamins."
Doskious says: I constructed my apparatus in Booty Bay. I aligned the crystal matricies and invoked the ritual that would send me back.
Doskious says: Or so I thought.
Doskious says: Instead, I found myself here, in yet another reality, different from either of the two before. Or, rather, almost here.
Daeliria tilts her head, listening with a strange half smile.
Doskious says: There was a space where I knew I had to choose between the utter Chaos around me or the limiting Order of the room in Booty Bay.
Cloudspur looks slightly confused.
Malyris is hopelessly confused.
Daeliria smiles.
Doskious says: I asserted my will against the siren song of Chaos and awoke in the Goblin outpost.
Doskious says: Shortly after arriving, I met Daeliria, and Azani. They both seemed ... familiar. I joined Eilon Kaerannis shortly thereafter.
Cloudspur says: Familiar, hm? I suppose that's good...
Malyris nods.
Doskious says: That depends on the context of familiar.
Cloudspur says: I suppose so.
Doskious says: But in this case, yes.
Doskious says: I believe that I knew one or both of their analogues in the other Dimensional Realities I visited.
Doskious says: Regardless, I feel at home here, and have no further desire to Travel again.
Malyris cheers at Doskious.
Daeliria says: Indeed?
Cloudspur says: Perhaps for the best. Who knows where else you might be tossed? It must've been stressful.
Daeliria's half-smile grows.
Konradexius gives Doskious a thumbs-up.
Doskious says: As a side note, according to my research, the Fel power fueling my portals was focused much differently from those energies directing the Portals of the Burning Legion, Cloudspur.
Malyris beams widely.
Cloudspur says: Oh, that's a relief.
A sly smirk spreads across Cloudspur's face.
Daeliria sighs silently.
Doskious says: Their Portals use pure Fel power and require raw control. That is why the portals created by Ner'zhul ripped Draenor asunder and created the Outlands, for example. He lacked sufficient raw control, and had no eldritch device to assist him. I substitute Engineering for the focusing and control elements.
Daeliria says: And I assume you were not opening a portal large enough for armies to cross over.
Malyris says: Maybe a very tiny army.
Malyris keeps an eye out for ant hordes.
Doskious says: And that substitution causes the vertex nodes to align differently, inducing a transverse warp in the fabric of space-time.
Cloudspur blinks at Doskious.
Cloudspur says: Er... if you say so...
Malyris blinks at Doskious.
Doskious says: Rather than the straight static warp cuased by the Legion's portals.
Daeliria says: So a...
Daeliria bends one hand slightly.
Daeliria says: Instead of a...
Daeliria brings her hands together flat.
Doskious says: I could design a portal machine large enough to transport entire armies between worlds, but I lack the Fel resources for such a feat. It would require many worlocks working in concert, over several months.
Cloudspur stares.
Doskious says: Yes, that's somewhat how it goes, Dae.
Daeliria says: So, unlikely.
Konradexius says: Well, Doskious, it sounds like Fel Portals should just be generally avoided.
Doskious says: I find them to be quite useful if you keep your wits about...
Doskious says: But I believe that brings us to you, Daeliria.
Daeliria sighs, glancing around.
Cloudspur eyes Daeliria up and down.
Daeliria says: Only the veterans of the Eilon left here, now...
Daeliria says: But even so, none of you knew... before. If Azani was here...
Daeliria pauses to think.
Daeliria says: I am known as Daeliria Moonshield, now, or Daeliria of the Eilon, but a long time ago my name was Daelaris.
Malyris ponders the situation.
Malyris says: Could it... nah.
Malyris shrugs. Who knows?
Daeliria says: There was... an entire life I led. Or rather, that Daelaris led. A Tribe, wealth and power, friends, a daughter.
Cloudspur raises an eyebrow.
Daeliria's smile grows tight.
Daeliria says: There were... problems.
Daeliria brings a hand to her forehead, trying to organize her thoughts.
Cloudspur looks on with some concern.
Konradexius listens silently.
Daeliria says: And, to solve those problems, Lusera... This was not here. Not in this realm. There was nightmare, and terror, and darkness, for a long time.
Daeliria says: I saw the face of Mother Elune in the night, and She broke down everything I was, smoothed me over, and...
Daeliria smiles softly in remembrance.
Daeliria says: And I awoke here. Clean and small and new. I was in the Temple, being cared for again.
Doskious nods.
Daeliria says: There were bandages over my eyes, but I could... somehow perceive things around me, their spirits. Later, when the bandages came off, I discovered my material eyes had ceased to function.
Daeliria touches one of the long scars on her face.
Malyris gasps.
Cloudspur frowns.
Daeliria says: But I asked for everyone I knew. My friends, my daughter Variele, and Inyon, and Lusera. Everyone.
Daeliria says: No one had heard of them.
Daeliria says: I... did meet, much afterwards, a young hunter named Kahon, who was in love with a missing woman named Jassande. Just like Kahoku.
Daeliria smiles more brightly.
Daeliria says: And then one day, still exploring the world and regaining the powers I once had, by fortuitous coincidence I met an idealistic young druid.
Cloudspur quirks her eyebrow.
Daeliria says: This druid prompted me to once again find those of intelligence, competence and humor and gather them around me.
Daeliria says: Mother Elune lent me redemption. I called these people the Children of Redemption.
Daeliria says: Eilon Kaerannis. We exist, at least in part, because I met Mniaron.
Cloudspur smiles at Daeliria.
Cloudspur says: Ah. She didn't tell me any of that.
Daeliria says: Well, I don't suppose she would have.
Cloudspur says: Mm.
Cloudspur smiles thoughtfully.
Daeliria shrugs. Who knows?
Daeliria says: And then one day, there was Azani.
Daeliria says: And I still don't know what happened or how. She never told me.
Daeliria says: The rest... all of you know.
Malyris claps excitedly.
Cloudspur pets Wellington and nods in deep thought.
Daeliria says: I apologize for my long, long absence recently. I was convalescing in the Temple again, regaining my sight.
Daeliria lets out a long sigh.
Cloudspur says: That's wonderful!
Malyris says: Yay!
Daeliria smiles. "Thank you."
Konradexius says: We're all glad for you.
Daeliria says: Thank you for staying. None of you had to.
Cloudspur blinks at Daeliria.
Cloudspur says: Nonsense. Knowing the history behind the people who make this guild is important.
Daeliria says: Staying with the Eilon in these last few months, that is.
Cloudspur nods.
Konradexius says: Why, how else would I spend my time?
Daeliria smiles at Konradexius.
Daeliria says: Quite a few ways, I should think.
Konradexius says: Daeliria, don't make it sound like staying is a chore.
Cloudspur agrees with Konradexius.
Cloudspur purrs like a kitten.
Daeliria says: Well, the night grows thin. Shall we clear up here?
Konradexius says: Aye.
Malyris says: Sounds good.
Cloudspur says: Mm, yes, it's late. And creepy.
Cloudspur says: I'm glad I could partake in the stories. I hope we can move forward with strong purpose and footing.
Konradexius bursts into dance.
Konradexius roars with bestial vigor at Cloudspur. So fierce!
Cloudspur tickles Konradexius. Hee hee!
Cloudspur blinks at Daeliria.
Cloudspur waves goodbye to everyone. Farewell!
Malyris waves goodbye to everyone. Farewell!
Doskious waves goodbye to everyone. Farewell!
Daeliria waves at Malyris.
Konradexius says: Hm.
Daeliria says: Mmm?
Konradexius removes his helmet.
Daeliria blinks at Konradexius.
Konradexius bows before Daeliria.
Konradexius salutes Daeliria with respect.
Daeliria studies Konradexius' face carefully.
Konradexius smiles at Daeliria.
Daeliria says: I have seen your face. Once. When we first met.
Konradexius says: I hide nothing from you, Guildmistress.
Konradexius says: Shall we ride?

Initially, it was my intent to provide a Guildchat enhanced version of the chat (like Pop-up Video, but better), but given that *that* file is just under 2000 lines long as opposed to this one (which is just over 1400 lines at 77k characters), I decided to just throw the file itself on my website under an obscure name and post the link here for those what want to view the full hilarity. Here is the link and URL: www.geocities.com/bond_007_l2k/EKTBRP_full.txtThis file is unedited, and contains timestamps as well.
