From Fremea: [Re: Actions]
<The painting in front of the group, so she is protected
and she tells Arawn about her mark and for him to watch what
happens when she touches the painting.
She will take any who are wanting to come with her for
the theif.>
Fremea is relived that none seemed to react, though ...
GM: Ack.

[New Stuff]
[Sepes 28th, 1634TH]
[Location: City of Salaqara, Donara]
[Time: 10:46pm - North of Salaqara - Plains]
Noticing the wolf's manner Arawn turned to Will. "Do you
know what's upsetting him?"
Will flexes his arm toward the wolf knowing that he still
hasn't been healed fully by the wolf bite. Will looks around
but suspects it to be a person nearby that gives eyes on
the group the wolf does not like. If the riders were wise
they would have sent a scout ahead in the dark. But only
the Sidh could truly find him in this darkness. But there
is little time for that now.
Before teleporting, Kiet casts a quick personal illusion
on himself to disguise himself but stands as far away as
he can from Z'leyra doing so.
--------------
[Time: 10:51pm - West of Samma, Donara]
After returning with the rest of the party Arawn took
some time to inspect the statue and area surrounding it,
curious as to why it was positioned the way it was. It
might be nothing more than a mistake but he couldn't help but
wonder if it hinted at something of significance.
"Etain, do you know the history of the piece or the person
honored by it?"
Etain shrugs, "when I was here the locals just laugh at
the statue. It is more a place of merry than reverence.
They say the statue was placed in error by the apprentice
of the master. That did not go well for him. But when
the Prince was killed by an illness they didn't want to
fix it I suppose."
--------------
[Time: 11:43pm - Samma city, Donara]
Fremea is relived that none seemed to react, though rather
confused too, as she was told to never show anyone. Or at least
that is what she remembers. The reaction from Etain was
completely unexpected. Did he truly not understand her mark
or even know about it? How can this be, the teacher who knew
everything about her, didn't.
Taking Kiet to the side for a second. "Maybe you are
interested in helping me to pay my debt to my slaver."
Kiet can't help smile. Ever since the flying castle he
has never really been able to use his full skills at full
capacity. He glances over at Arawn and back at Fremea
giving a nod by reflex before thinking. Those around
who felt that torture and such was more evil. Torture
is just a art form to some as healing a wound is to others.
Kiet has to stand in the doorway since Z'leyra is on the
other side of the room and her darn necklace would just
dissolve his nice illusion. In combat this could be a very
bad thing to do if she wears it and he is seen.
Etain sits dumbfounded by the news of the mark. he
shakes his head several times as if in deep thought.
Arawn watches Etain as well and notices surprise but he
is still seemingly a good actor or is not giving as much
as he should be to the group.
Arawn suggests, "I would suggest taking at least one person
who can magically interrogate the thief and so offer my service
unless it's felt that I'm more valuable placed elsewhere or
another is capable,"
Fremea nods in consideration. She asks Kiet to get the
painting for another viewing. She explains she will do
this in front of all for safety.
As Kiet unfolds the painting in front of Fremea, Arawn's
another suggestion.
Arawn "And it might be good for a few to scout out the
location while you hunt down the thief, assuming the painting
reveals further clues."
When Fremea seemed ready to conjure information from the
painting Arawn extended his senses deep, seeking to pull any
detail that might appear
--------------
[Sepes 29th, 1634TH]
[Location: City of Samma, Donara]
[Time: 12:05am - Samma city, Donara - Tavern]
Fremea sits in a chair having gotten used to the possible
effects of the painting. This time she loosens her shoulder
clothing and reveals her mark.
Fremea places her hand on the painting is rocked back
by a familiar force. It happened the last times touched
the magical artwork. Her mark begins to glow a bright yellow
like that of the sun on a summer morning. It is not too
bright to blind but it is like a thousand fire flies in one
spot.
Fremea feels the sensation flowing through her. This time
she sees the hooded figurer again. This time she is sure it
is the Elves that hid the items. This figure seems to search
the city from street to street. She is still confused why
hide a piece in a city where it is likely to be found. But
the Elves have not always been the sages they think they are.
Fremea sees many scene as but there is no idea of a span of
time. It could be minutes or days. Then the figure finds
a construction spot. He looks around to find several shops
also in construction. But the place is a foundation just
laid down in stone. Fremea's eyes seem to shift to the face
of the Elf as if looking at just air about him. But for
some reason she senses the Elf is seeing more than he is
seeing. She feels as if the Elf may be seeing the future
or maybe what could be. Shivers run up the spine of Fremea
as she backs away to take in a full view of the foundation.
The time of day seems to be early morning as the sun is
just rising. There is no traffic in the area or maybe
this is just a new side of town? But the Elf moves to
a spot in a far corner. Fremea wills the scene to shift.
She finds the sun which is to the east rising. She is sure
it is morning but she could be wrong. Maybe it is setting
in the west. She looks around for more clues. If it was
afternoon there would be more people about. She discovers
fire pits for baking bricks and stone mason work is full
of ashes. If ashes this suggestions the fire was lit hours
ago not recently. This means the sun must be in the east.
The scene shifts back to the Elf who is digging in a patch
of sand. If the sun is to the east then this must be the
north east corner of the structure. Fremea notices there
are small markets on wooden stakes that denote more area
of stone work of foundation. So this must be the place
the item is buried under the foundation in the north
east corner. But Fremea is unsure if the markers are
part of a yard or future building. So she can only
estimate where the item might be.
The Elf digs the ground with a hand shovel and digs the
hole about 2 feet in diameter and about 5 feet down. Then
he places the item a gleaming end piece like the one that
may have been taken from Salagara. Fremea is unsure. The
shape is so fast she can't get great details even if she
wills this scene backwards. Then the item is buried.
The Elf then leaves the area quickly. But Fremea remains
in the area to look for clues. In one corner of the site she
finds a table of tools but no clues. As she continues
to look around she is suddenly struck by another scene. This
time in bright daylight.
Fremea is staring at a three story structure that seems to
have room for maybe a hundred small rooms or 50 large ones.
It is unclear. Could this be the same place? She looks around
and finds a baker shop that was nearby from the last scene.
she looks back at the structure and sees a flag pole out
front with a fountain. It is flying the colors of Donara
and Samma.
Fremea notices a small waist high slab with a plague
and she moves toward it to read. She notices a symbol
of a circle among 3 circles inter mixed. She goes to
read the words and then is jolted.
Sweating with beads on her head and arms Fremea sags to
the chair tired. She curses under her breath just when
she finds the place it ends. But that it not the full
issue. She takes a few moments to calm down then explains
her vision.
Raban nods, "a public place like a government or social
place. Private places like that wouldn't have a flag stand
and fountain. Shouldn't be that hard to find. I have a idea.
I thought about this entering the city. I know a fellow Bard
I met once in Donara. He ...well he has lived here but is
a bit of a oddball. The bard network is a strong force and
he might have contacts if not the place in question. I can
try to find him. I tend to recall...the places he likes to
stay at certain places. I could use some pretty gals on
my arm to help sooth the...presence of me coming back." He
looks toward Z'leyra and Unali. "Anyone else wish to track
this building down?"
Etain looks to Fremea, "I was in the dark. This now seems
to make sense. I just thought it was a birthmark. Not
A Mark. I was told that you were special but had a destiny
for your people and for the Sidh. I only served my people
though I was led to that path by my own leaders. I need
time to resolve this. I need to figure this out. I believe
we may have been both duped. For a purpose beyond our
control. But I will go where you wish me to go." He
looks sad as if slapped by a scorn lover over something
as simple s a light argument.
[Time: 12:12am - Samma city, Donara - Tavern]
Actions? Comments?
Next Update....Friday...
GM: A quick update more or less. I had little sleep last night
so not as full as I wanted. Was too busy with some of
my other duties for the Friday update so no update last
friday as you noticed. Next week is my last 4 day weekend
until next September. So I will try to do update but
frankly it is my last time to party :). So we'll see
plus I do have a lot of X-mas related stuff to do. We'll see.
GM: Ok. Looks like we'll split up unless stated otherwise
by Fremea.
To track down Thief - Fremea, Kiet, Arawn
To find building - Raban, Suggested Z'leyra, Unali
To stay at tavern - All others
Let me know who goes where. I'll continue on Friday's
update. So I need to know by Thursday afternoon or even
better Wednesday if possible. If you wish to go in
a different group (Arawn for example to building and Unali
to Thief for example) that's fine. Just let me know
GM: Arawn - Using the wand for Locating is fine but remeber
it is not a mana battery so it gives the basic benefits
of a wand (plus adds +1 to all mana cast). Just a reminder.
GM: Kiet for your illusion. I think you described it once
before but can't recall to me or to the group. If not
you can post a description of what you look like if you
wish. I rounded the time to 11pm for casting for ease
of bookkeeping though it was around 10:49pm. I post
the below for my notes/memory.
Illusion Cast: Sepes 28th, 11pm
Illusion Ends: Sepes 29th, 3pm
You increased EL. Actually I noticed when I added
experience that you already had. Opps. Those darn
dwarves. But now your EL4 for sure. I'll be sure
to slap them at least a dozen times for this.
GM: Z'leyra Kiet asked about our stone if you could remove
it in a earlier post. If not this will cause many
problems for his illusion.
GM: Mana report updated. But I realize the time has made
a new day. I normally in the past recycle mana at dawn
as I used to do so will continue that tradition.
GM: A public plea for Kell if you see this you need to respond.
It has been 6 months almost (6/20) since last posted. We
don't know if your dead or what. A quick note might be
useful. I have sent emails to the various emails that I
have for you but if anyone has info on other emails not
known to me (@yahoo and his work emails) let me know. Anyone
know of Twitter or Facebook for him? If I don't hear from
him by 1/1 I'll turn him into a full Npc. This means he
has the same danger to die as any npc. :<
