[19:47] <.Bynw> **
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** Following the swift flow of the mystic
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** river of blood the adventures arrived
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** at Saint Marrin's Abby, a monastery
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** in Einar near the border of Einar,
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** Paradise and Halifax. And a half days
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** ride from the Free City of Dawson.
[19:47] <.Bynw> **
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** Riding through the gates of the Abby
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** the party comes upon a grisly scene.
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** The monks and some local townfolks
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** have been slaughtered to the last man.
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** Some half dozen have been ritually
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** sacrificed, including an Einarian
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** Bloodguard.
[19:47] <.Bynw> **
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** The only survivor of the assualt was
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** a Deryni named Maverick, an apparent
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** gunslinger by trade. Who was part of 
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** the force from the Free City of Dawson.
[19:47] <.Bynw> **
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** The attacking force has been identified
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** as Uthani. A mix of military and priest.
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** And following standared Uthani practice,
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** there is a chance of a darkhand Anadari
[19:47] <.Bynw> ** officer or two amoung them.

[19:48] <+_Nym_> ??How long till sunset?? 
[19:49] <+James> "Their wagons should slow them down enough for us to pass them.  Wagons do not travel well in the forest."

[19:49] * +Maverick_Darklighter flourishes his pistols, and smoothly sets them back in place.
[19:50] <+T_Shaw> "If they are slowed down, we need to find a way to get in front of them or slow them down even more so that we can."
[19:50] <.Bynw> !! the sun is aleady setting
[19:50] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "I dont have as much ammunition as I would like to have.."
[19:50] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "It would be good for me to aquire more. If we have time."
[19:51] <+_Nym_> "Should we press on, they are only a half an hour ahead?" 
[19:51] <+James> "We must, if we hope to pass them."
[19:51] * +Maverick_Darklighter nods to James.
[19:51] <+T_Shaw> "We will need to have someone familiar enough with the woods to ensure that we aren't getting off track if we do."
[19:51] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "Then I suppose I'll make due.."
[19:52] <+_Nym_> "We can take a chance with an hour of Einar's night. We are on the boarder after all.?" 
[19:52] <+_Nym_> "I can track them." 
[19:52] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "Listen.. we are on a mountain, the woods are a bit thick. How are you all at trailblazing?"
[19:53] <+_Nym_> "I've done my fair share Mavrick." 
[19:53] <.Bynw> *Kanax looks up* "Einar ends less than a days ride to the east and the plain where we encountered the priests several weeks ago."
[19:53] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "We can cut our own path through the woods, Nym, if I might call you that, and it should save us alot of time"
[19:53] <.Bynw> *Kanax* "Looks like they have a wagon or two. They wont get cutting across country."
[19:54] <+T_Shaw> "Aye, Kanax. That gives us somewhat of an advantage."
[19:54] <+James> "I have some forest experience as well."
[19:54] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "Then lets hit the trail.. time is wasting"
[19:55] <.Bynw> *Kanax looks about the abby's courtyard some more and sighs*
[19:55] <+James> "We druids do not usually cut trails, but I can assist in that anyway."
[19:55] <+Bredock> "I'm more of a sea person, but I shall probably be able to keep up."
[19:55] * +Maverick_Darklighter grins at James.
[19:55] <+_Nym_> "If I follow them alone for a day and a night I might be able to work some havok with there horses or wagons and slow them to a crawl. But we must decide now if we are to press on into the night." 
[19:55] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "Its all about riding, James.. Im sure you can keep up."
[19:56] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "The way you boys stormed in here.. I dont doubt any of you."
[19:57] <+James> "Oh, I can ride in the forest. . . . Rufus, we're moving agian!"
[19:57] <+_Nym_> ::Looks to Bredock to see if he agrees:: 
[19:57] <+T_Shaw> "Master Nym, if you do move on by yourself, we should keep in contact."
[19:57] * +Maverick_Darklighter swings himself into the saddle of his horse.
[19:58] * +T_Shaw climbs back into the saddle
[19:58] <.Bynw> *rufus looks about and promptly ignores james and goes and rubs up against Kanax who gives the bobcat a bit of a scratch*
[19:58] * +Bredock jumps up on his horse
[19:58] * +James mounts his horse
[19:58] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "This is trailblazing, not a sight-seeing tour."
[19:59] * +James laughs. "Okay, Rufus, follow Kanax."
[19:59] <+_Nym_> ::Mounts back up on his horse:: "Take it slow we don't want to twist a horses ankle out here. They might have scouts out as well so be alert." 
[19:59] <+T_Shaw> "Aye, Master Nym."
[19:59] * +Maverick_Darklighter nods to Nym...
[20:00] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "You seem to be in charge here, Nym."
[20:01] <+_Nym_> *Shrugs* "If you say so Mavrick." 
[20:01] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "Im a retired Army man.. Im used to taking orders."
[20:01] <+_Nym_> ::Starts out at a walk following the trail left by the priests:: 
[20:03] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "cha" Mav calls out to his steed.. and the horse begins a slow trot, behind Nym.
[20:03] * +James follows Nym, looking to insure that Rufus does indeed follow the party
[20:04] <.Bynw> *rufus starts to follow James's horse as he rides out*
[20:05] * +T_Shaw follows the group
[20:05] * +James smiles and turns his attention to watching the forest for any sign of enemy scouts or other danger.
[20:05] <.Bynw> *kanax mounts his horse and turns west towards the city of Dawson while the others head east*
[20:05] <+_Nym_> ::Over his shoulder to James:: "James, if you wish to move ahead in another form I'll lead your horse for you." 
[20:05] * Bynw sets mode: -v DarkSir
[20:06] <+James> "Thank you, Nym, that is appreciated."
[20:06] * +Maverick_Darklighter looks at Kanax and calls out to him : "Pick me up a few boxes of rifle and shotgun shells, sir, Ill repay you."
[20:06] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "If you can find them, some silver bullets too" 
[20:08] <+T_Shaw> "Master Nym, is it advisable to let Kanax go off on his own?"
[20:08] * +Maverick_Darklighter turns back to riding, and giving Kanax a wave.
[20:08] * +James dismounts and leads his horse to Nym. He then silently focuses on the forces of nature around him and changes shape into an ow.

[21:18] <.Bynw> *the rider removes his hood and dismounts in one motion letting a halo of handfire of darkgreen tumble down his head and shoulders as he looks at the party before him
[21:19] * Connor_Massey has joined #Teara-Adan
[21:20] <.Bynw> *Alec* "Thank you Nym." *he looks over at T_Shaw* "Cousin" *he says with a slight bow of neck*
[21:20] * +Maverick_Darklighter puts his gun away and secures it in it's holster.
[21:20] * +T_Shaw bows to Alec. "Cousin."
[21:21] <+_Nym_> ::Raises an eyebrow at the mention of 'cousin':: 
[21:21] <.Bynw> (( see your pm nym ))
[21:23] * +Maverick_Darklighter gets down off his horse and moves to stand beside Nym.
[21:23] <.Bynw> *Alec* "Master Nym, you must allow the Uthani to reach the temple ruins."  *Alec's clothes bear no marking of Utha, only the robes of an Anadari Knight following the Adra path*
[21:24] <+_Nym_> ::shakes his head at the dramatic halo on Alec and chuckles at his statment:: 
[21:24] <+_Nym_> "Your serious aren't you?" 
[21:25] <.Bynw> *Alec* "What happend to your pitbull?" *the handfire halo fades to nothing* "Oh I am deadly serious. They MUST think they are succeeding."
[21:26] <+T_Shaw> "Ah, misdirection."
[21:26] * +Maverick_Darklighter looks at Nym sidelong.
[21:26] <+_Nym_> ::Looks a bit confused:: "My pitbull?" 
[21:26] * +Maverick_Darklighter looks back at "Alec".
[21:27] <.Bynw> *Alec* "Lars I believe was its name." *he again looks at Shaw* "You look familiar ... have we met?"
[21:28] <+_Nym_> ::Shrugs:: "Lars is not here. I'd think that was obvious. That is all you need to know." 
[21:28] * +Maverick_Darklighter puts his hands on his pistols underneath his poncho, so as to not be seen.
[21:31] <.Bynw> *Alex* "But yes, the Uthani must reach the temple and must believe they are succeeding. Take their common sense example and wait out the Einarian night."
[21:31] <.Bynw> (( er alec ))
[21:31] <+_Nym_> ::To Alec:: "We are in a bit of a hurry Uncle and haven't much time for pomposity and depth-less flair. Explain yourself, submit to a truth reading or move out of the way." 
[21:32] * +Maverick_Darklighter readies to draw and fire.
[21:32] <+Maverick_Darklighter> (( on Alec ))
[21:32] <.Bynw> *alec mounts his steed* "I shall ride with you. If I may of course."
[21:34] <.Bynw> *Alec* "And you may truth-read me anytime you wish." 
[21:35] <+_Nym_> ::Looks back to Master Shaw and James for opinions:: "What do you think?" 
[21:35] <+James> ::The owl lands and reshapes into James::
[21:36] <+T_Shaw> "I have no complaints. Alec may be a welcome ally in a fight should it come down to one."
[21:36] * Pepsi_Promoter has joined #Teara-Adan
[21:36] * Pepsi_Promoter is now known as Wild_Card
[21:37] <+James> "He helped us last time.  I think we can give him a chance this time."
[21:37] <+_Nym_> ::Nods to them and then to Alec:: 
[21:37] <+_Nym_> ((softly begins truth-reading Alec)) 
[21:38] <+_Nym_> ::Mounts back on his stead:: "Explain then." 
[21:38] <.Bynw> *Alec* "We may not see eye to eye and are philosophies may even be in opposition. But we both wish to stop the Uthani troops here from succeeding."
[21:38] <.Bynw> are=our
[21:38] * +Maverick_Darklighter mounts his stead.
[21:39] <+James> "I'd like to know how long the Uthani must believe they are succeeding.  What if they actually reach the temple?  Or is that your intent as well?"
[21:39] <+T_Shaw> "The enemy of our enemy, in other words, Alec."
[21:40] <+_Nym_> ::Nods to Alec:: "What are your intentions with the blood pool then?" 
[21:40] <.Bynw> *Alec moves his steed over to the rest of the party* "Oh I want them reach the temple and even reach the blood pool"
[21:41] * +Maverick_Darklighter glints his eyes at Nym at the mention of a 'blood pool' .
[21:41] * +James mounts his horse.
[21:41] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "What in the hell is the bloodpool? some kind of game?"
[21:42] <+James> "No game at all.  Far from it."
[21:42] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "It souds like a blood sport"
[21:42] <.Bynw> *Alec turns to Maverick* "It is power."
[21:42] <+_Nym_> ::Raises a hand to Mavrick to silence:: "It is a long story, it is a very old, very evil artifact and if the uthani control it....it would be bad. I will explain when we make camp." 
[21:43] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "Very well, Nym."
[21:44] <+_Nym_> ::Raises his eyebrow at the discription Alec gives the pool:: "Again, what are your plans for the blood pool Uncle?" 
[21:45] <.Bynw> *Alec* "I want the Uthani priests to reach it. I want them to activate it. I want them to summon His Majesty so he tests his freedom of the Spectrals spell and comes to claim his prize. Then I will kill him."
[21:46] <+James> "That's a big risk . . . "
[21:46] <+_Nym_> "You want the blood pool for yourself?" ::Looks to Alec:: 
[21:46] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "Are you people insane?"
[21:47] * +Maverick_Darklighter furrows his brow.. and looks about for an explanation.
[21:47] <+James> "To be honest, I ask myself that almost every day, Maverick."
[21:48] <+_Nym_> ::Looks to Maverick with a deadpan expression:: "We are Anadari Knights, nothing more or less." 
[21:48] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "Thats not what I was hoping for, James."
[21:48] <.Bynw> *Alec* "No. The bloodpool is insignificant compared to the powers of the Akasa."
[21:49] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "Anadari Knights are supposed to uphold the law, Nym."
[21:49] <+_Nym_> "Then what are your plans for it after Michael is dead, or more dead then he is now?" 
[21:50] * Wild_Card has quit IRC (Quit: Enter Death, once again, The circle of death never ends, Swing the scythe, through your soul, He'll aswing till your blood runs cold, As another one is taken, You should hide, If you think your safe, you're mistaken, You should best be prepared, Once he comes)
[21:50] <+_Nym_> ::To Alec:: 
[21:50] <.Bynw> *Alec* "I have no plans for it after Michael is destroyed. I'm sure that others will and leave that to you to deal with."
[21:52] <+James> "So our mission is essentialy unchanged, then?  You just want to bring the world to the brink of destruction in the hope of killing King Michael?"
[21:52] <+_Nym_> ::Nods to Alec:: "Why? Why kill Michael?" 
[21:52] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "I suppose next you will tell us your allied with the Spectral Magicians, eh, Alec?"
[21:54] <.Bynw> *Alec* "He is evil and his crimes over the centures are many." *he looks to Maverick* "Why yes I am"
[21:55] <+Maverick_Darklighter> "I am from Halifax, Alec. I know the trechery of the Spectrals."
[21:55] <.Bynw> *Alec turns back to Nym* "So where are we going to wait out the night?"
[21:56] <+Bredock> (( i have to go to sleep now. good session. full to all))
[21:56] <+James> "Well, you certainly have a point there.  There's no doubt Michael of Utha deserves death.  But who will fill the void of power?  The next king might be worse . . . "
[21:56] <+T_Shaw> (( I'm in the same boat as Bredock. I have to go. Full to all. ))
[21:56] * T_Shaw is now known as Big_Tom
[21:56] <.Bynw> (( ok we will end here ))
[21:56] <+_Nym_> ::Nods to James statement:: "Hate only draws more hate, Alec." 
[21:57] <+_Nym_> "You've never done an altruistic thing in your life until recently. Why now?" 
[21:57] * +Big_Tom has left #Teara-Adan
[21:57] <+_Nym_> ((end it?)) 
[21:58] <.Bynw> (( yeah tom and Bredock are leaving ))
