[Recap]
From Raban: [Re: Actions]
<Raban would like to Learn Sidh, buts thats a supernatural.> <If
he can get training the the Sidh Archery spell, then its worth
starting. I will have to look it up for exact name and costs>
Raban will approach Frema, "Frema, do you know a spell that is
for making multiple arrows when you fire a bow? If you do I would
like to learn it if you could teach it too me."
<Does not work if she does not want to teach>
GM: Ack. Archery powers can be learned via Fremea or maybe someone
else in the Dark Lands.
---------------------------
From Kiet: [Re: Actions]
to the group members only, not wanting to ask any of the Citadel
residents...
"Do any of you spell casters know the 'Force Powers' neutral
spells and be willing to teach it to me at some time in the
future?"
"Thank you so much for listening to my humble request."
GM: Ack.
---------------------------
From Chion: [Re: Force Powers]
Chion replies, "I am new to the entire realm of Nuetral spells.
I too would like to learn some of that magic. Perhaps I will
simply have to watch you cast it if someone teaches you. I don't
think I need another master teaching me, but am open to it if
they are willing."
GM: Ack.

[New Stuff]
[Apris 6th, 1634TH. 9th Day of Adventure #4.
[Location: High Elder's domain - Citadel, Dark Lands, Forest]
GM: Kiet's IBT actions...
[From Apris 3rd to the 6th, Kiet spends time driving the wagon
back following the flying slab under the control of Z'leyra and
Caladan. With his skills as wagon driver he helps to guide the
wagon through the best routes and avoid the bad obstacles. For
the first two days it is easy travel. But on the 6th there are
some nasty obstacles in the way causing the party to go back
and re-route. This day Kiet earns praise for his wagon skills
to improve the time and efficiency of the trip, improving his
own skill greatly.]
[When the party arrives at the Citadel, Kiet asks Oby about the
books, flags, uniforms and other possible help for his gear.
Kiet is seen talking privately to Suca about something but the
party can surmise it must be about the folks who attacked him.
In this small place the rumor mill for such things is active
and most will find that all of the people were found. Turns
out the small cult wasn't allowed to do a certain ritual due
to possible summoned rampage - monsters on the rampage -
without at least 3-4 masters supervision. Their punishment
was fines and a few weeks in jail. but for now Kiet is safe to
walk around.]
[Bright and early on Apris 7th, Kiet leaves his room at the Inn
in the Citadel and eats a quick breakfast before others wake
up. The grumpy tavernkeeper woken up so early for a quick meal
gives Kiet directions. Kiet studies the map at the guardhouse
wall and plans his day. He'll need to find a jeweler shop for
his plans. The one in the citadel is a bit fancy and would
likely be for the nobles, thus more expensive basically. He
heads to the village shops knowing they are for more common
folks. Waiting for the shopkeeper to arrive he asks to rent
some space, tools and materials to make some items. Doing
something like this in a place of a few hundred again spurs
the rumor mill. The party soon realize Kiet is tinkering away
at making some magical items. The exact nature isn't known
just that he starts the items this day. He buys the materials,
sets up a workspace, rents the tools and gets to work. For
most of the day he is in the shop. A runner has to fetch food
for him as he works for hours on the two items. The first
works perfectly. But close to midnight the first spell fails.
Tired Kiet has to leave the shop to the Inn so the shop can
close.]
[Morning of Apris 8th Kiet rushes to the shop again to retry to
make the item. This time he is prepared having done it twice
before. Working a bit faster he casts the spells and both seem
to work this time. By 3pm he has the first of his two items
made. For the rest of the day he goes back to the lake area
where there are plenty of people around and makes more of his
rope from basic materials he had already.]
[Apris 9th and 10th, Kiet continues to rest and spends more time
in the shop making a couple more items. On the 10th Kiet casts
spells upon the new items created.]
[On the night of Apris 8th, little after 10pm going back to the
safe Inn in the Citadel grounds, Kiet notices a group of 7
peasants behind one warehouse. Cautious not to stumble upon
another cult he sees them holding torches and speaking in
excited but not angry voices. Listening the group is promoting
some wizard in one of the Law Domains. Seems he is having some
form of contest for best use of a certain magic that seemed to
be called Power Strike. One man seems to asking for the gossip
to go around and get apprentices to join in. Kiet continues on
after listening to the event. Over the last few days
demonstrations of teaching masters, apprentices grumbling and
the like have been commonplace.]
[Apris 10th, while resting in a tavern in the east district Kiet
notices a Patrolman enter. The guard sits down at a table with
two other men and starts to play a game of cards. As the game
progresses Kiet, from his angle, notices the guard reaches
under the table and touches a small pin on his belt. Curious
he studies the act for awhile and then realizes the guard doe
sit every time a hand is drawn. Soon Kiet realizes the guard
must be using magic to cheat by seeing what the others have.
Even in this place it seems common guards can obtain magic
items for everyday use. Soon Kiet leaves but not before the
guard seems to win a dozen or so rounds.]
[On the night of Apris 11th, Kiet is taking a break at the
nearby outhouse when a creature scrambles by. Exiting the
building Kiet is startled briefly. The creature looks to be a
small monkey sized creature, red colored, light fur and about
the size of a cat. It runs east and soon a voice is heard from
the west. A young girl about 17 runs toward the building and
says "I'll change you back!" and continues on past Kiet chasing
the creature. Kiet sighs and shakes his head at the oddball
people in this place. So full of magic and the occasional
"accident".]
[The next day Kiet returns to the shop to cast more spells onto
the new items. Finally on Apris 12th the last of the spells
are cast into the new items.]
[The rest of the days Apris 12-14th are spent on making more
minor items in the shop.]
[The last couple days before the meeting with the high Elder
Kiet is seen shopping in a few of the general stores looking
for some materials.]
[The night before the meeting, Apris 14th, the moon is out and
bright. Kiet is about to enter the Citadel gate when he
notices a group of 5 almost where Chion has his duel. Two must
be masters based on their age, in their late 20s, while the
others are mid-teens. Based on the color of their robes, seems
this place has a robe color scheme, one must be a Law Wizard
and the other a Chaos Wizard. The Chaos wizard demonstrates
how to transmute a tree branch into a chair. Kiet continues
to watch as the Law wizard demonstrates a powerful shield
spell. This one glows green as a one teen tries to throw
rocks at him but they bounce off. Kiet figures the two must
be trying to select apprentices or apprentices selecting
masters? Kiet finds it fascinating how such aligned wizards
could be feet from each other without killing each other. Then
again they are within sight of Ki'ama's tower and likely his
eyes and guards.]
GM: Wasn't that just exciting? Well next time the adventures of
Fremea The Ex-Slave I hope. Get your popcorn ready! What
did Kiet make? Why didn't he go hunting with Ben'dar? Why
was he seen smoking grass? Why did the Jeweler's daughter
giggle at seeing the stain on Kiet's pants? Sure it was just
a drop of silver but she didn't that! Course if you know the
answers to these questions you have the script! You should
immediately report for reconditioning!

[Apris 6th, 1634TH. 9th Day of Adventure #4.
[Location: High Elder's domain - Citadel, Dark Lands, Forest]
[Night of return to Citadel. Before folks head for their projects
and down time events...]
[Raban recalls the magical spells Fremea used with her bow like
the cold and fire arrows and finds them interesting. He steps
close and speaks to her.]
Raban: "Fremea, do you know a spell that is for making multiple
arrows when you fire a bow? If you do I would like to learn it
if you could teach it to me."
[When Oby, Zhou, Sven, Suca and the others leave leaving only
the core party members Kiet asks his question before folks
disperse for the night.]
Kiet: "Do any of you spell casters know the 'Force Powers' neutral
spells and be willing to teach it to me at some time in the
future?"
"Thank you so much for listening to my humble request."
[Some of the party realize that Bohusara knew some of the powers.]
Chion: "I am new to the entire realm of Neutral spells. I too would
like to learn some of that magic. Perhaps I will simply have to
watch you cast it if someone teaches you. I don't think I need
another master teaching me, but am open to it if they are
willing."
Caladan: "I don't know the spells. Another master? You had two
what's a few more?" [He smiles at Chion.]

Note: Remember this is STARTING ELs. So not max. But
its a start. Slot 12 is still empty. Sign up or Chion
can take that with a particular request? There will be
more time during the adventure.
*** ONE SLOT LEFT ***
*** Raban wants to learn Tongue of Sidh. Since it is
supernatural that tends to be a bit more Sacred like.
If someone wants to teach him that I'll put him in for
slot #12. If so let me know. I figure some may not
want supernatural tongues revealed much less given out freely.
So its optional.
