[19:53] * +Lars_Revik eyes close.. and he falls asleep.
[19:54] <.da_gm> *Kanax looks on ....
[19:55] <+Nym> ::the same ghostly green flame engulfs his eyes as his face turns to pure rage:: 
[19:56] <.da_gm> *Delan picks up Lars' sword and looks at the Anadari* "What of these two now ... "
[19:56] <.da_gm> ?? Seanna doing anything ??
[19:56] <+Seanna> "Thank you Nym!  I owe you one!"

[19:57] <+Nym> "I have had enough of this childishness." 
[19:58] <+Nym> ::Sheaths his sword, the flame goes out in his eyes and his sword:: 
[19:59] <+Nym> "Seanna you have broken the laws of Adanac and forced yourself on an unwilling mind for pure spite. What you have done is considered close to mental rape in the anadari's eyes and in mine." 
[20:00] <+Nym> "You and I will resolve this another time." 
[20:00] <+Seanna> "I hadn't realized that is how you would see it.  I won't do it again and I am sorry for having done it"
[20:00] <+Nym> "You say you owe me, yes?" 
[20:01] <+Seanna> "yes"
[20:01] <+Nym> ::Pulls his dagger, this time it remains nothing but a dagger and hands it to Seanna:: 
[20:02] <+Seanna> "what do you want me to do with it?"
[20:03] <+Nym> "I want a blood oath that you will never do anything of that sort again AND that you will mutually apologize to Lars when he wakes." 
[20:03] <+Nym> ::Makes a cutting motion in the palm of his hand with his finger:: "Like thus." 
[20:04] <+Seanna> "I will do it and I will apologize.  However, I reserve the right to defend myself if I haven't done anything to provoke Lars' attack"
[20:04] <+Seanna> ::makes a smal cut on her palm"
[20:04] <+Seanna> ::
[20:04] <+Nym> ::Extends his hand for the dagger::

[20:07] <.da_gm> *Delan puts away his pistol and checks the trim of the skiff as they continue along
[20:07] <+Nym> ::Returns the shake and nods to Seanna:: 
[20:08] <.da_gm> *Delan and Kanax make a few adjustments to the controls ... the skiff lurges a bit under the stress of its damage but otherwise there is no effect on the passengers*
[20:08] <+Nym> ::Releases her hand and sheaths his dagger:: 
[20:08] <.da_gm> *the moon is full in the nightime sky - sheding enough light for even the humans to see
[20:09] <.da_gm> *rufus moves slowly up to the sleeping Lars and sniffs at him then walks away seemingly uninterested*
[20:10] <+Nym> "You're crimes are suspended, Seanna. Do not betray the bond, such things are not made lightly." 
[20:10] <+Seanna> "As long as I am not forced to defend myself against Lars, I won't do anything"
[20:11] <+Nym> ::Nods:: "Good enough, I will handle Lars." 
[20:12] <+Seanna> ::walks over to where James is::
[20:12] * +Lars_Revik stirs in his sleep...
[20:12] <+Seanna> ::sits down besides James::
[20:12] <.da_gm> (( james isnt here ... he's been wildshapped as an owl ))
[20:12] <+Nym> ::Walks over to Lars taking a knee near his sleeping form:: 
[20:12] <+Seanna> ((Jenna then, sorry))
[20:13] <+Nym> ::Rolls him onto his back, kneels on his chest pining him to the deck and full swing slaps him acrfoss the face:: 
[20:14] * +Lars_Revik opens his eyes like lightning bolts!
[20:14] <.da_gm> (( i would rule that would wake lars up ))
[20:14] <+Nym> ((lol)) 
[20:14] <+Lars_Revik> "nym?"
[20:15] <+Nym> ::With a stone face:: "Are you done or do you need another lesson in anger control?" 
[20:15] * +Lars_Revik grins wolfishly....
[20:15] <+Nym> ::Tries to keep a straight face but smiles a bit:: 
[20:16] <+Lars_Revik> "so, you are the one that stopped me... ::peers from side to side by only moving his eyes:: "aye lad, you can let me up."
[20:16] <+Nym> ::Rolls off of Lars and stands:: 
[20:16] * +Lars_Revik sits up at the waist, and rubs his neck.
[20:16] <+Nym> ::Offers Lars a Hand up:: 
[20:16] * +Lars_Revik grabs the hand.. and bolts up.
[20:16] <+Lars_Revik> "Thank you"
[20:17] <+Nym> ::Nods:: "I wouldn't be so quick with that." 
[20:17] <+Lars_Revik> "hehehe" ::grabs the rail::
[20:17] <+James> ::an owl flies towards the skiff, lands near Kanax, and shapes into James::
[20:17] <+James> "Kanax, that way." ::points::
[20:17] <+Nym> "You are going to appologize to Seanna and her to you, right now." 
[20:17] <+James> "Quick, they have another victim."
[20:18] <+Lars_Revik> "You know what she has done, of course."
[20:18] <+Nym> "She has taken an oath to never do anything like that again." 
[20:18] * +Lars_Revik nods to Nym
[20:18] <.da_gm> *Kanax makes a hard adjustment to the stearing of the skiff ... (( everyone needs a dex check or balance check to say on their feet unless sitting ))
[20:18] <+Lars_Revik> "Ill trust you as the Watchman to make sure it doesnt happen again."

[20:19] <.da_gm> *Kanax yells out his apologies for the course correction*
[20:20] <+Lars_Revik> ::Holding his head:: "I'll thank you to hold her steady, Mr. Kanax."
[20:20] <+Nym> ::Dark circles have appeared under his eyes and his face seems extremely tired:: 
[20:21] <+Nym> ::Pushes himself to a sitting position with a grunt of effort:: 
[20:21] <.da_gm> *Delan* "I take it your scoutting mission was a success James?"
[20:21] * +Lars_Revik walks over to Nym, and offers a hand to help him up.
[20:22] <+James> "Yes, I know where they are."
[20:22] <+Lars_Revik> "Come on Nym.. it isnt that bad, is it?"
[20:22] <.da_gm> *Delan makes a few more adjustments*  "This is gonna be a bit bumpy ... taking across country like this"
[20:22] <+Seanna> ::closes her eyes and tries to sleep for a little bit::
[20:23] <+Seanna> "let me know when we get there"
[20:23] * +Lars_Revik helps Nym to his feet, if he allows it.
[20:23] <+Nym> ::Smiles up At Lars:: "I think I'll sit for a bit, all this....excitement has tired me out more then I would wish." 
[20:24] <.da_gm> *Kanax * "If you know where they are James ... we should make our plans now in route"
[20:24] <+Lars_Revik> "As you wish, Nym.. it has been 'taxing'."
[20:24] <+Nym> ::Nods to Kanax:: 
[20:24] * +Lars_Revik unbuckles the utility case on his belt.. and pulls out a single vial, imbibing it.
[20:25] <+James> "About a dozen Red Robes, dragging someone."
[20:26] <+Lars_Revik> 2d8+3
[20:26] * @Cerebus rolls the dice for Lars_Revik (2d8+3) and rolled 8.
[20:26] <+Nym> "They must know we are coming, they would've heard the shots." 
[20:27] * +James continues guiding Kanax to the spot where he saw them.
[20:27] <+Nym> "I say we ramp up to full speed and clip'em clean off their horses" ::says it with a wicked grin:: 
[20:27] <.da_gm> *Delan* "probably that captain the Bloodguard spoke of ... "
[20:27] * +Lars_Revik stands at his full height,, invigorated by the potion. Lars tosses the vial overboard, and latches his belt case.
[20:28] * +Lars_Revik grins at Nym
[20:28] <+Lars_Revik> "Now your talking, Nym!"
[20:29] <.da_gm> *Kanax* "We are at full speed due to the damage the skiff has had ... any faster at all we risk destroying this craft"
[20:29] <+Nym> "We're not traveling much faster then them, but it should stop them and at leased dis-organized them for a moment" 
[20:29] <+Nym> "Well best speed, theen I guess" 
[20:29] <.da_gm>  *Kanax* "How far are they James?"
[20:30] * +Lars_Revik taps his empty sheath..
[20:30] <+James> "Just a few miles"
[20:30] <+Lars_Revik> "Nym, my weapon.. do you have it?"
[20:30] <+Nym> ::Points to Lars sword on the other side of the craft:: 
[20:30] <+Nym> ((or at leased where it was before we took that bump)) 
[20:30] <.da_gm> *the sword is behind Delan at the controls in the aft part of the skiff 
[20:31] <.da_gm> *Kanax* "at this spead it will take a good half hour .."
[20:32] * +Lars_Revik approaches Delan
[20:32] <+Lars_Revik> "Mr. Delan, my sword, if you please."
[20:32] <.da_gm> *Delan* "I think we can boost it a bit .. but still ... i don't know if we will fly once we get there"  *he watches the terrain go by as the skiff picks up some speed
[20:32] <+Nym> ::Turns to James:: "Got anything in your bag of tricks that you can use to slow them down, James?" 
[20:32] <+James> "Unless they stop to perform a sacrifice.  We could come upon them in the middle of it."
[20:33] <+Nym> "No, lets see if we can get there in one piece, this skiff gives us the high ground and a big advantage." 
[20:33] <+James> "Afraid not, Nym."
[20:34] <+James> "They seemed to be stopping when I left them."
[20:34] <+Nym> ::To James:: "How about flying ahead of them and using one of those...um....the glamor I've seen you use?" 
[20:34] <.da_gm> *Delan looks directly at Lars*  "You take a seat.  I will let you have your sword back when there is an ememy to work out your aggression on"
[20:35] * +Lars_Revik peers at Delan... and walks to the front of the ship.
[20:35] <.da_gm> *both Kanax and Delan look at one another as the skiff moves onward in the night*
[20:35] <+Nym> "Maybe one of those things we saw when you met me, the horses seemed terrified of the things." 
[20:35] <+James> "Nym, I'm pretty sure they're stopped already.  We just need to get there in time to save the victim."
[20:36] <+Nym> "If the horses bolt...." 
[20:36] <+Nym> "But if you say you can't. I trust your judgment." 
[20:37] <.da_gm> *Kanax nods to Delan as he takes over the controls and Kanax moves towards the others*
[20:38] <.da_gm> *Kanax* "Delan and I agree ... we have crossed the border.  We are in Paradise now - the old Valimar region"
[20:39] <+Nym> ::Sighs:: "I was afraid of this...I have some...news I guess." 
[20:39] <+James> "What's that, Nym?"
[20:40] <+Nym> "I stumbled upon an unusual ability within myself years ago." 
[20:41] * +Lars_Revik turns.. straining to hear what could be so important on the aft of the ship
[20:41] <+Nym> "I have practiced long to perfect it. That I know of, no other deryni has every displayed it in resent times." 
[20:41] * +Lars_Revik walks back, to stand beside Nym
[20:41] <+James> "Oh?"
[20:41] <+Nym> "The ability to enter into other's dreams and take control." 
[20:42] * +Lars_Revik looks sidelong at the sleeping Seanna...
[20:42] <+Nym> "I had an unusual dream one night of an ancient artifact." 
[20:42] <+Lars_Revik> "What good is that, Nym?"
[20:43] <+Nym> "I can only call it the Blood pool." 
[20:43] <+Lars_Revik> "Are these the nightmares you spoke of in the past?"
[20:43] <+Nym> "It was not a normal dream I can assure you. Though I can't say what it was." 
[20:43] <+Nym> "No this is unique." 
[20:44] * +Lars_Revik grimaces.. as if he wants to say something
[20:44] <+James> "What did it look like?"
[20:44] <+Nym> "I shared this dream, the exact dream mind you with others. Actually only the people in the dream itself." 
[20:44] <+Nym> "A pool of blood, but almost alive." 
[20:45] <+Nym> "I met Baron in this dream." 
[20:45] * +Lars_Revik looks Nym, James, and Delan square in the eye
[20:45] <+James> "Tou think this pool of blood is in Old valimar?
[20:45] <+Nym> "And it took place in Paradise, not far from here." 
[20:46] <+Nym> "This pool of blood is nothing more then a tale a myth." 
[20:46] <+Nym> "But I think it's possible it may turn out to be real, yes." 
[20:47] <+Lars_Revik> "I too, have been in contact with some kind of 'intelligence'...."
[20:47] <.da_gm> *Delan* "There are a lot of strange tales out of this region ... no stranger than those in my native Einar."
[20:47] <+Nym> "This pool, if it is like the dream and the legends, is an artifact of unknowable power, and insanely evil." 
[20:47] <+James> "You have, Lars?  What kind of intelligence?"
[20:48] <+Nym> ::Looks to Lars, his face unreadable:: 
[20:48] <+Lars_Revik> "I will tell you three, but, do not mention this to anyone else.."
[20:48] <+Lars_Revik> "A voice has been speaking to me."
[20:49] * +Lars_Revik grips the pommel of his sword tightly.
[20:49] <+Nym> ::his eyebrow raises:: 
[20:49] <.da_gm> (( you dont have your sword yet lars __
[20:49] <+Nym> ((swords gone)) 
[20:49] <+Lars_Revik> (( ack!))
[20:49] * +James looks intently at Lars. "What did it say?"
[20:49] * +Lars_Revik grips the pommel of the dagger in his belt tightly
[20:49] <+Nym> ((guess you just ghost the motion)) 
[20:50] <+Lars_Revik> "Most recently.. when I had that necklace. It told me to keep it."
[20:51] <+James> "Has it told you anything about who it is?"
[20:51] <+Nym> ::His eyes narrow:: 
[20:51] <+Lars_Revik> "Is Baron allied with the Uth?"
[20:52] <+Nym> ::His jaw drops:: "How did you know that?" 
[20:52] <+Lars_Revik> "Just a guess.. but it is true, is it not?"
[20:52] <+Nym> ::Nods silently to Lars question:: 
[20:53] <+Lars_Revik> "I suspect it is Baron himself in contact with me.. "
[20:53] <+Nym> ::His eyes narrow again:: "What makes you think it's him?" 
[20:54] <+Lars_Revik> "I cannot be certain,, but the very little I know of what is going on .. suggests to me personally that it is Baron."
[20:55] <+Lars_Revik> "I will show you this as well.. perhaps it may aid in discerning things.."
[20:55] <+James> "Well, it's fitting together now . . . Uthani priests and the Baron.  He may even be one of the Red Robes."
[20:55] <+Seanna> ::wakes up from her nap::
[20:55] * +Lars_Revik pulls out the dagger he has been gripping.. and shows it to Nym.
[20:56] <+Lars_Revik> "I took this off of the body of the dead priest that was wearing the necklace."
[20:56] <+Seanna> ::tells Jenna, "Sorry I slept on your shoulder"::
[20:56] <.da_gm> *the blade is of Uthani origin, and is a ceremonial killing blade*
[20:56] <+Lars_Revik> "I had hoped to use it on the priests themselves.."
[20:57] <+Nym> ::Extends his hand for the dagger:: 
[20:57] * +Lars_Revik hands it to Nym
[20:57] * +James looks at it while Nym holds it.
[20:57] * +Lars_Revik notes the wicked curve in the blade
[20:58] <+James> "That looks like a sacrificial blade of some sort, doesn't it?"
[20:58] <+Nym> ::Takes the dagger and drops it:: 
[20:58] * +Lars_Revik looks at Nym
[20:58] <+Lars_Revik> "Are you alright?"
[20:59] <+Nym> ::His hands slowly extend towards Lars head:: "Lower your defenses and allow me inside, please Lars?"
