This is from Geijon's perspective on the evening of January 9th, 2015.

Summary

This is the death of Elithain Cross and the severing of Althedeus for good. We were being moved through time throughout so the perspective shifted frequently.

Log

A barn owl flies in.

Raelee clenches her jaw.

Riend just went up.

You nod at Raelee.

Speaking to you, Raelee asks, "Status?"

Raelee says, "... nevermind."

Rozy fidgets, glancing at a shifting portal of silvery light.

You exclaim, "Get ready!"

A shaft of scintillating light suddenly jumps out of the sky and strikes the ground next to you. The beam of light then explodes in a shower of sparks and Madelyne is standing in its place.

Riend quietly hisses, "Madelyne...."

Praytus moves into a defensive stance, ready to fend off an attack.

Nysina cocks her head.

The portal begins to stretch, and expand....and blinks a few times....

Nysina glances around the area.

Ridic blinks.

Taverkin squeaks oddly.

Gweneivia softly exclaims, "Quick, push Hoy in!"

Suddenly a hue of purple light rolls across the portal, and shimmers for a moment. It opens.

Ridic lets out a cheer!

You ask, "Are you all ready?"

Greycrown exclaims, "Get in there!"

Kupaka roars!

Olgretien deeply exclaims, "Go!"

Kupaka nods to you.

Daenalan nods to you.

Svardin says, "Tis open."

You step into the shifting portal of silvery light and all colors fade around you, blending and blurring as you feel yourself being torn in multiple directions. Suddenly, your surroundings change.

[Shifting Cavern]
The walls of the cavern are more crystal than rock, their glass-like surfaces in a constant state of shifting, each one reflecting a myriad of images and hues. Hushed voices echo through the chamber like a dissonance of sounds, and wisps of ethereal light curl and bend in the chilled air.
Obvious paths: none

The air bends and shimmers, odd sounds popping and humming in the distance. Colors bleed away all around you and you feel a brief, but powerful sense of vertigo as your surroundings shift.

[Beneath the Reach, Nexus]
The air bends and shimmers, odd sounds popping and humming in the distance. The cavern is huge, surrounded by smooth polished rock walls that constantly shift between shades of light and dark. Descending from the tunnel above, blood drips like a steady rain, covering the entire earthen floor in a pool of crimson. You also see a short-taloned eagle that is flying around and the Svardin disk.

Greycrown gestures at Elithain.

Dozens of long thorns suddenly grow out from the ground underneath Elithain! Elithain manages to jump out of the way!

Nysina seems hesitant, looking unsure of herself.

You exclaim, "Cross!"

Svardin looks determined and focused.
In an awe inspiring display of combat mastery, Svardin engages Elithain in a furious dance macabre, spiralling into a blur of strikes and ripostes!
As Svardin moves to attack Elithain, the icy blue light surrounding his body intensifies in frequency and solidifies! Suddenly, the light violently flares out toward Svardin!

He is stunned!

You see Madelyne.
She appears to be an urnon golem.
She is tall and appears to be very young. She has piercing hunter green eyes and creamy white skin. She has long, curly raven black hair which falls gracefully to a point in the middle of her back. She has a delicately sculpted face, a slightly upturned nose and a multitude of small crystalline shards protruding from her skin. Every few seconds, lumps form and travel along her body, shifting in size as they move.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing some urnon armor.

You concentrate intently, focusing all your energies.
You explode into a fury of strikes and ripostes, moving with a singular purpose and will!

Ridic says, "Not yet."

Elithain clears his throat and spits out a small gob of blood.

You see Elithain Cross the Summoner of the Arcane Eyes.
He appears to be a Human from Mestanir.
He is short and appears to be in the spring of life. He has squinted sharp silver eyes and smooth skin. He has short, wavy dark brown hair. He has a narrow face, a hooked nose and thick dark brown eyebrows. A series of pink burn scars have disfigured the left side of his neck. He is surrounded by a barrier of blue light. He is surrounded by a barrier of blue light. He is surrounded by a barrier of blue light. He is surrounded by a barrier of blue light.
He has some minor cuts and bruises on his left leg, and some minor cuts and bruises on his left arm.
He is holding a gnarled fireleaf scepter capped with a pristine shard of onyx in his left hand.
He is wearing a pair of ebony leather boots, an obsidian eye-shaped talisman, a smooth grey leather satchel, some heavy crimson suede robes, a black leather belt set with icy blue gems, and a gold-stringed brown cloth sack.

Hoy gestures at Elithain.

Dozens of long thorns suddenly grow out from the ground underneath Elithain! Elithain manages to jump out of the way!

A flash of icy blue light ripples over Elithain, healing him of all of his wounds.

The air bends and shimmers, odd sounds popping and humming in the distance. Colors bleed away all around you and you feel a brief, but powerful sense of vertigo as your surroundings shift.

[Beneath the Reach, Tunnel]
The tunnel declines more sharply now, curving at a dangerous angle, and the walls continually shift. Ethereal white energy coils through the air, curling up like the pale smoke of a candle. At the end of the tunnel, a nest of glistening black roots spread out like a bed of shadows, each one twisting off into the distance and disappearing into the darkness. You also see a barn owl that is flying around, a bundle of arrows, a dull black faewood arrow fletched with sanguine red feathers and a shifting portal of silvery light.

Hoy thrusts his glowbark runestaff high into the air. One by one, the sigils carved in the glowbark begin to flicker with a faint glow. The crystal at its crown suddenly flares to life with a brilliant white light. The light spills forth from the crystal and rapidly spirals around Hoy, obscuring him from view for a brief moment.

Madelyne fades into view, appearing very disoriented.

Elithain fades into view, appearing very disoriented.

Obvious paths: up

You say, "Time shifted..."

Speaking to Raelee, you ask, "Can you get us a chance?"

Raelee says, "... I will try."

You ask, "Are you all with me?"

You recite:

"We are at th' doorstep of redemption or damnation. Keep your resolve!"

You recite:

"Trust in our brethren!"

Rozy fidgets.

Greycrown says, "Well somebody killed Elithain."

You say, "Wrong time."

You belt out, "Pylasar!"

Kupaka huskily asks, "We going portal again?"

Svardin says, "Hmm."

The air grows warm and ethereal lights drift through the area like ghostly white smoke. Among the pale mist, images form and shift, first depicting a vast stretch of dunes swirling with sand, a small band of black-veiled tehir moving across them, and then next to a swath of a night sky as a bright green star falls.

You say, "We can try th' portal again soon."

You say, "Timing."

You say, "Everything is moving at once."

You say, "Careful."

You belt out, "Everyone!"

You say, "One way."

The air grows warm and ethereal lights drift through the area like ghostly white smoke. Among the pale mist, images form and shift, first depicting an ancient battle of elven armies clashing with hordes of undead, and then next a sky filled with airships and stained the color of blood.

You ask, "Th' others miss their chance?"

AS: +710 vs DS: +313 with AvD: +34 + d100 roll: +73 = +504
... and hit for 251 points of damage!
Shadows roil forth from the black voidling, revealing a hazy tenebrous orb.
The black voidling collapses in on itself. You feel an icy chill as the dark form seems to recede into nothingness.

Tolwynn searches a hideous multi-eyed oculoth.
The multi-eyed oculoth's hulking, shadowy mass suddenly bleeds away like oil, its eyes closing in unison as it melts away into nothing.

* Jandrian just bit the dust!

You ask, "Status?"

Praytus softly says, "No mana."

* Pantenkind just bit the dust!

* Mufassa just bit the dust!

Speaking to Nysina, you ask, "You have a special arrow for Cross' eye?"

Turinrond says, "All of her arrows are special."

Your series of strikes and ripostes leaves you winded and out of position.

You exclaim, "You will not stop us!"

You belt out, "Cross!"

* Polveiss just bit the dust!

Praytus softly says, "Dang they stole most of my spells."

Dark shadows swirl around as a twisting oblivion shade coalesces in front of you!

Ridic swings a massive bone-hafted sledgehammer at a twisting oblivion shade!
AS: +509 vs DS: +306 with AvD: +36 + d100 roll: +81 = +320
... and hits for 134 points of damage!
A massive blow to the right shoulder hoists the oblivion shade high into the air.
It hangs there a moment, suspended, before falling forward.
The shade writhes as its spectral form bends and warps uncontrollably!

A shadowy figure leaps from hiding to attack!
The figure swings a sharp eahnor tanto at a twisting oblivion shade!
AS: +603 vs DS: +275 with AvD: +20 + d100 roll: +39 = +387
... and hits for 72 points of damage!
Good hit!
Left shoulder is ripped from its socket then wriggles back into place.
The figure quickly disappears from view.
Dark shadows swirl around as a twisting oblivion shade coalesces in front of you!

Neathon swings a dir-hafted rolaren waraxe at a twisting oblivion shade!
AS: +539 vs DS: +244 with AvD: +29 + d100 roll: +29 = +353
... and hits for 126 points of damage!
Strong attack separates head from shoulders.
Head disappears in the breeze as a new one forms on the oblivion shade's shoulders!
You hear a sound like a weeping child as a white glow separates itself from the oblivion shade's body as it rises, disappearing into the heavens.
The oblivion shade slumps silently to the ground and begins to rapidly dissipate.
The glowing specks of energy surrounding a twisting oblivion shade suddenly shoot off in all directions, then quickly fade away.
The bright luminescence fades from around a twisting oblivion shade.

Tolwynn searches a twisting oblivion shade.
Tolwynn gathers the remaining coins.
A twisting oblivion shade fades into oblivion.

* Daefea has been vaporized!

* Daefea just bit the dust!

* Leloo has been vaporized!

* Leloo just bit the dust!

Turinrond nods slowly.

* Vallenne just bit the dust!

Raelee frowns.

* Goldstr just bit the dust!

Olgretien deeply asks, "Do we know if Pup's group is back up?"

* Kiske just bit the dust!

Raelee quietly states, "I do not know that I can... impact... this, the time."

Speaking quietly to Raelee, Riend mutters, "She is so close, it is more distracting that I had thought it would be."

Speaking to Riend, Raelee asks, "Why?"

Phever says, "Looks like town is taking a hit again."

* Clunk just bit the dust!

Riend furrows her brow.

Kupaka huskily says, "More buckets must be fallen."

Rozy says, "If smusherfies Cross, Walker not going to be anythings."

You stop protecting Gweneivia, move over to Raelee, and prepare to protect her from attack.

Speaking carefully to Raelee, Riend says, "I feel it, rather like a current just below the skin. It is not something I expected."

You ask, "Everyone alright? We've any needs?"

Neathon says, "Ale."

Riend shifts her weight, restlessly leaning back and forth.

Rozy shivers.

Ridic says, "Wait for it."

Raelee says, "... time..."

* Veyion has been vaporized!

* Veyion just bit the dust!

Raelee absently states, "I can almost feel it."

* Nottinghamm just bit the dust!

Svardin sniffs.

Myasarie quietly says, "Time may be shifing again."

Bekke clenches her jaw.

Ridic agrees with Myasarie.

The air shimmers, and Elithain and Madelyne appear.

Taverkin points at Elithain.

Rozy traces a sign that contorts in the air while she forcefully incants a dark invocation...
Holding Elithain in her gaze, Rozy utters a foul curse upon him.
CS: +497 - TD: +325 + CvA: +15 + d100: +46 == +233
Warding failed!
Elithain loses some inner strength.

Rozy looks at Elithain and hums.

You whisper, "Do not attack!" to your group.

Riend glances sharply at Madelyne.

Elithain gestures and curls of icy vapor whisper into existence, coalescing around his body to form a swirling barrier of blue light.

Taverkin whispers to the group, "Remember what Pylasar said!"

Hoy's face turns slightly pale.

Rozy whispers to the group, "Am didn't attacks."

Olgretien spits a little in Elithain's direction, but it falls harmlessly to the ground beside him.

You hunch your shoulders and snarl menacingly at Elithain!

Nysina begins to twitch.

Raelee settles her gaze on Elithain, watching him intently.

[Beneath the Reach, Nexus]
The air bends and shimmers, odd sounds popping and humming in the distance. The cavern is huge, surrounded by smooth polished rock walls that constantly shift between shades of light and dark. Descending from the tunnel above, blood drips like a steady rain, covering the entire earthen floor in a pool of crimson. You also see a sundried tomato and garlic loaf, a shrinking will-o-wisp spirit that is flying around, a green-eyed black cat that is sitting, the Kupaka disk, the Geijon disk, the Svardin disk, a malcontent will-o-wisp spirit that is flying around, the Neovik disk, the black Taverkin disk, the Praytus disk and a tiny red-eyed hedgehog.
Also here: Lady Maiehia, Lord Hoodtralfeck, Elithain, Scroll Keeper Daenalan, Rozy, Magister Raelee, Olgretien, Riend, Leslieanna, Nysina, Grand Lady Traiva, Master Kupaka, Neovik, Zarston, Bekke, Lord Tolwynn, Taverkin, Lord Praytus, Lord Chamorr, Gweneivia, Myasarie, Altheorn, Fealoke, Hoy, High Lord Turinrond, Ridic, Neathon, Squire Legionnaire Ryjex, Phever, Madelyne
Obvious paths: none

Rozy grins mischievously.

Ridic drops all defense as he moves into a battle-ready stance.

Daenalan stares at Elithain.

You see Madelyne.
She appears to be an urnon golem.
She is tall and appears to be very young. She has piercing hunter green eyes and creamy white skin. She has long, curly raven black hair which falls gracefully to a point in the middle of her back. She has a delicately sculpted face, a slightly upturned nose and a multitude of small crystalline shards protruding from her skin. Every few seconds, lumps form and travel along her body, shifting in size as they move.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing some urnon armor.

Turinrond smiles calmly.

Elithain grins coldly, his eyes reflecting no emotion.

Kupaka snorts derisively at Elithain!

Maiehia shifts her eyes to Elithain.

Rozy sticks her tongue out at Elithain, and lets out with a loud, "Thbtbtbtbt" from her lips!

Riend rapidly sucks in air through her teeth in pain.

Neovik stares at Elithain.

You whisper, "We need to destroy Madelyne when th' opportunity arises." to your group.

Elithain says, "You have come to bear witness to this great awakening for the world."

Bekke folds her arms serenely in front of her as she watches Elithain contemplatively, the roomy sleeves of her robes concealing her hands completely.

Neathon examines Elithain closely, sizing him up and taking note of all the details.

Myasarie peers quizzically at Elithain.

Speaking squeakily to Elithain, Taverkin says, "Yes, thas what we is here fer."

Kupaka huskily says, "Sure, that's what we doin."

Riend strides a few steps forward.

Phever narrows her eyes and gives Elithain a cold, hard look before tightening her lips and glancing away.

Rozy exclaims, "Am was told there would be tea and kittens!"

Madelyne moves to stand behind her father, the glow of the shimmering chamber moving across her sleek urnon form.

Speaking to Elithain, Raelee asks, "... how does it work?"

Speaking to Elithain, Turinrond says, "A pity you discarded us when you did, Lord Cross. All the energy you've wasted fighting us."

Gweneivia innocently asks, "Soooo...do both of you need to be alive for that to happen?"

You take a moment to observe everything you can about Elithain.

Elithain says, "It was not wasted."

Taverkin gives Elithain a rather puzzled look.

Bekke asks, "No?"

Kupaka huskily says, "It was, we are still strong.”

* Saelwen just bit the dust!

Riend frowns at Madelyne.

Speaking to Elithain, you ask, "Do you think you can control what you summon to our world, Cross?"

Hoy frowns.

Speaking disapprovingly to Madelyne, Riend asks, "Still blindly following the commands of your father, I take it?"

Speaking to Elithain, Neathon says, "You could had jus given meh my tribute an I will had left you to these ere grarrogs."

Speaking to Elithain, Turinrond says, "I would have been happy to help you bleed the Empire."

Madelyne glances at Riend.

Nysina glances between Madelyne and Elithain.

Myasarie quietly says, "One be sure that Lord Cross can control that which he has summoned."

You whisper, "Be attentive." to your group.

Turinrond whispers to the group, "We are buying time."

Bekke says, "Oh, there have been moments of unravelling that which he has done."

Rozy fidgets.

Hoy glances at Madelyne.

Speaking to Elithain, Bekke says, "Isn't that right."

Ridic whispers to the group, "Who do we focus first?"

You whisper, "Cross to sever th' ritual." to your group.

Elithain says, "You see....it is ending, for all of you."

Bekke says, "Hardly."

Phever sneers with a hint of anger in her eyes.

Altheorn smirks.

Neovik laughs at Elithain!

Altheorn shakes his head.

Speaking to Elithain, you say, "We are all at th' doorstep, Cross."

Speaking to Elithain, Bekke says, "I've only just begun."

Speaking deeply to Elithain, Ryjex says, "But I just got here...."

Speaking to Elithain, Neovik says, "Just you."

Speaking to Elithain, Raelee asks, "How? How does it work?"

Speaking to Elithain, Turinrond says, "What are your plans, after? What will you do when everyone is dead? I don't quite understand that part."

Elithain gestures, the walls around you shimmering. Within, you see Lake Eonak, filled with shadows. Slowly, the shadows begin to close and shrink.

Fealoke whispers to the group, "If he doesn't have his barrier up..I would think his flesh the easier to pierce by far, too."

Hoy's face turns slightly pale.

Elithain says, "Your friends? These "heroes?"."

Speaking to Elithain, Neathon says, "That had not paid well."

Elithain says, "Their fate is being sealed."

* Jeril has been vaporized!

* Jeril just bit the dust!

Riend shakes her head.

Speaking squeakily to Elithain, Taverkin asks, "Is you sure?"

Riend strides a few steps forward.

Speaking to Elithain, Turinrond says, "Probably. They are probably bickering about it right now."

* Darthuin just bit the dust!

Speaking to Elithain, you plead, "Why have you done all of this Elithain?"

Speaking heartily to Elithain, Chamorr says, "What is your fate."

Bekke says, "Don't listen. He's full of pomp."

You say, "All th' world will be darkness.”

Fealoke says, "If there even is a world."

Turinrond asks, "That's the part i don't understand, Cross. When all is gone and the world is a void, what happens to you?"

Turinrond cocks his head at Elithain.

Kupaka glances at you.

Turinrond asks, "You are the king of ash and bones?"

* Bristenn just bit the dust!

* Greganth just bit the dust!

Myasarie quietly asks, "Aye would not the world be a lonely place if all were gone but thee from it?"

Speaking firmly to Madelyne, Riend urges, "Think about it, you know it is the truth."

Elithain grins.

Elithain says, "The world will not be such."

Speaking to Turinrond, Fealoke says, "Cast aside. Same as he did others."

Elithain says, "Reformed, reborn....ruled."

Rozy gives a sidelong glance at Turinrond.

Speaking to Elithain, Turinrond asks, "What will it be?"

The voice of Svardin says, "Gnat."

Ridic says, "Ruined."

Altheorn softly says, "Rule a world in his image. As twisted and terrible as he could wish it to be."

Speaking to Elithain, Bekke says, "I am ruled by none."

Speaking to Elithain, you exclaim, "You cannot control a God!"

Speaking to Elithain, Ridic says, "Your words are meaningless, you seak nothing but lies."

* Rowmi has been vaporized!

* Rowmi just bit the dust!

You whisper, "Be ready." to your group.

Raelee quietly murmurs, "The word 'God' does not guarantee an ultimate power."

Phever slowly empties her lungs.

Nysina's fingers twitch, subtly tightening on her arrow as she tests the tautness of her bowstring.

Nysina glowers.

Raelee quietly adds, "It is but a word."

Traiva begins to twitch her wings.

* Ycelacie just bit the dust!

Elithain grins coldly, his eyes reflecting no emotion.

Bekke folds her arms serenely in front of her as she watches Elithain contemplatively, the roomy sleeves of her robes concealing her hands completely.

You point your rune-scribed maul at Elithain.

Turinrond asks, "Indulge a dead man's last curiosity, Cross?"

* Attoll just bit the dust!

Elithain says, "There is no safety for those who passed into the Shadows, only the small comfort that you will soon join them."

Turinrond asks, "What will the world be, with Althedeus within it?"

Raelee idly says, "Curiosity always deserves reward."

Turinrond asks, "What will you be ruling? Who will be left to rule?"

Speaking squeakily to Elithain, Taverkin asks, "What time is it?"

Nysina slowly paces to her right, moving in a circle around Elithain.

Taverkin hiccups!

Speaking to Elithain, Ridic says, "Not without taking your arse with us."

You interject, "No Cross. You will be wrong."

Shadows begin to slowly seep in through shimmering pockets in the air, twisting and coiling like black ribbons.

Raelee surveys the area.

Elithain nods.

Speaking to Elithain, Turinrond asks, "How many souls can survive this .. ritual? One, two.. ten?"

Elithain says, "None of you will."

Elithain grins coldly, his eyes reflecting no emotion.

Speaking evenly to Elithain, Riend asks, "And what of Madelyne? Do you plan on sacrificing her a second time to suit your twisted needs?"

Traiva softly says, "We will."

* Aurach has been vaporized!

* Aurach just bit the dust!

* Dragauth has been vaporized!

* Dragauth just bit the dust!

Madelyne says, "Silence, do not care of me now, when you did not then."

Taverkin gives Madelyne a rather puzzled look.

Bekke asks, "To whom do you speak, Madelyne?"

Speaking to Riend, Fealoke says, "One does wonder what will happen to her

Speaking to Bekke, Turinrond says, "Riend."

Speaking quietly to Madelyne, Myasarie asks, "Who m'lady? Lord Cross or others?"

Speaking slowly to Madelyne, Riend says, "Did not care? You tried to take -everything- from me and even then I did everything you asked of me. Do not, for a moment, pretend offense."

Speaking to Turinrond, Bekke says, "I was hoping she'd say it out loud."

Speaking to Madelyne, you say, "Your father should have loved you and displayed that as the validation of his existence. He only seeks to advance himself when a father should only be here for what truly matters. You."

Elithain gazes in wonder at his surroundings.

You whisper, "Soon everyone. Brace yourselves." to your group.

Speaking to Madelyne, Rozy says, "Could be own person and not pawns."

Elithain says, "Madelyne, you know your purpose, your fate."

Speaking huskily to Elithain, Kupaka says, "Scum."

Elithain says, "Look upon all of your failures, and do not repeat it."

You begin a steady and decisive chant, as if rallying the troops.

Madelyne says, "Yes, father."

* Elbromo just bit the dust!

Turinrond asks, "You would not indulge us the vision of the world that we are not going to be able to see, Cross?"

The voice of Svardin says, "Madelyn can be a hero like Mirayam was and her memory will last forever."

Myasarie quietly asks, "And if she does repeat them? Will thee destroy her as well?"

Speaking heatedly to Madelyne, Riend says, "Stop letting him dictate your future for you."

* Aerdowned just bit the dust!

* Ozzan just bit the dust!

* Streamdancer just bit the dust!

Rozy exclaims, "Stands up for yourselfs!"

Speaking to Myasarie, Fealoke says, "Likely she will be by going along with it all."

Riend pinches the oval-shaped lock on the silver door of her locket and slowly opens the piece.

Riend shows Madelyne her silver filigree locket.

Speaking quietly to Madelyne, Riend says, "Remember what you have lost... because of him."

Elithain begins to chant, closing his eyes, the air thickening around him.

Elithain gestures and curls of icy vapor whisper into existence, coalescing around his body to form a swirling barrier of blue light.

Neathon says, "That does not work well at all."

A flicker of illusionary white fire traces its way up Raelee's right arm, briefly outlining the veins and arteries beneath her skin in brilliant golden hues as it passes.

Speaking to Hoodtralfeck, Raelee says, "... time."

Speaking squeakily to Elithain, Taverkin says, "You seems nervous, friend."

You glance at Elithain.

Speaking to Rozy, Turinrond says, "Indeed."

Taverkin squeaks oddly.

Speaking to you, Raelee mouths, "No."

Speaking squeakily to Elithain, Taverkin asks, "Is you sure this is going to work as you plans?"

Taverkin hiccups!

Elithain touches one finger to his lips.

Taverkin seems to be waiting for something.

Speaking to Elithain, Hoodtralfeck says, "Your time has come to a end , just like Albright, Raznel and the other arcane eyes, it’s all over for you."

Elithain moves to stand in front of Madelyne.

Speaking to Madelyne, you say, "What are your desires Madelyne? You cannot exist for someone else."

Speaking to Madelyne, Riend pleads, "Do not let him do this..."

Myasarie quietly says, "Slaves have a tendency to revolt when pushed to far."

Elithain asks, "My sweet daughter, it is time for your purpose. Are you prepared?"

Ribbons of shadows infuse into the air, swirling about like ink in water.

* Wintersylph just bit the dust!

Speaking softly to Madelyne, Altheorn says, "You can choose still...make your fate, make your choice else. You can walk away from what you feel is wrong...it can be done."

Raelee quietly breathes, "... fascinating..."

Speaking quietly to Madelyne, Myasarie says, "He would have thee sacrafice thyself so that he would rule that nae be a father at all."

Speaking heartily to Madelyne, Chamorr says, "Do ya know whats bein asked of ya."

The urnon surface of Madelyne begins to shift as Elithain steps closer.

Elithain raises his rune-etched dagger in triumph!

Nysina begins to twitch.

Elithain gestures and curls of icy vapor whisper into existence, coalescing around his body to form a swirling barrier of blue light.

Elithain thrusts his blood red dagger up into Madelyne's stomach, the glowing blade sinking into her metal like a butter! The blood red light seeps into Madelyne and a thousand ethereal screams shake the chamber!

Rozy covers her ears.

Taverkin scowls at Elithain.

Turinrond gazes with interest at Elithain.

Phever flinches.

Nysina glances between Elithain and Madelyne.

The blood red dagger shatters, the metal dissolving away as the last of the red light burrows into Madelyne, causing her body to glow crimson for a brief moment.

* Azurus just bit the dust!

A pained expression crosses Altheorn's face.

Hoy ponders.

A thousand voices echo across the chamber and some of the walls go black, completely engulfed by shadows.

Raelee settles her gaze on Madelyne, watching her intently.

Bekke whispers to the group, "Wasn't it now, Cross is weakest?"

Turinrond whispers to the group, "I think it will be ... more obvious."
Taverkin seems to be waiting for something.

Fealoke whispers to the group, "Barrier is down, yes?"

You whisper, "Nae...he's not weak yet." to your group.

Madelyne says, "Thank you....father."

Myasarie whispers to the group, "The weakness will be obvious one is sure."

Elithain nods at Madelyne.

Along the surface of Madelyne's urnon body, a host of torment faces appear, shifting and churning, traveling across the length of her metal body.

Rozy glances suspiciously at Madelyne.

Raelee quietly breathes, "... remarkable."

Elithain moves to stand in front of Madelyne.

Elithain touches Madelyne.

You whisper, "Madelyne will be compromised soon...We need to end Cross at th' pinnacle of th' ritual then destroy th' golem." to your group.

Altheorn nods slowly to you.

Elithain nods at Madelyne.

Elithain says, "Now Madelyne..."

Elithain put a gnarled fireleaf scepter capped with a pristine shard of onyx in his grey leather satchel.

Speaking to Elithain, Neovik says, "Your death awaits you."

The ground beneath you violently shakes and rumbles causing you to fall down!

Holding Elithain in her gaze, Rozy utters a foul curse upon him.

Elithain says, "Usher in the Shadows....and do not fail me again child."

Madelyne smiles.

Riend glances angrily at Elithain.

Madelyne says, "Never....Father..."

Madelyne moves to stand in front of Elithain.

Taverkin fidgets.

* Vallenne just bit the dust!

Suddenly, Madelyne's arms turn into jagged urnon blades and he thrusts them out, impaling Elithain Cross in the shoulders!

Rozy beams!

Gweneivia gasps.

Elithain blinks.

Riend gasps.

Kupaka lets out a cheer!

Riend glances incredulously at Madelyne.

Altheorn whispers to the group, "When?"

Maiehia beams!

Elithain says, "You....wreteched....bitch...."

The voice of Neovik says, "Hmm..."

Turinrond whispers to the group, "Just wait."

Kupaka huskily exclaims, "Get him!"

Speaking squeakily to Elithain, Taverkin says, "Toldya."

Speaking encouragingly to Madelyne, Rozy exclaims, "Now cut him opens like foofiepants!"

Madelyne slashes, and the icy blue light around Elithain vanishes!

The barrier of icy blue light that was surrounding Elithain's form dissipates.

You say, "Now with all of your strength! Bring our world to th' light!"

Rozy traces a sign that contorts in the air while she forcefully incants a dark invocation...
Holding Elithain in her gaze, Rozy utters a foul curse upon him.
CS: +497 - TD: +325 + CvA: +15 + d100: +55 == +242
Warding failed!
Elithain loses some inner strength.

Svardin swings a kelyn-edged glaes broad axe at Elithain!
AS: +631 vs DS: +5163 with AvD: +30 + d100 roll: +96 = -4406
A clean miss.

Gweneivia whispers and a strawberry-hued wisp is summoned, flitting around her playfully.
Gweneivia gestures at Elithain.
The force of Gweneivia's power warps the air as it surges toward Elithain!
CS: +515 - TD: +325 + CvA: +15 + d100: +44 == +249
Warding failed!
A nebulous haze shimmers into view around Elithain, plunging inward to envelop his right leg!
... 25 points of damage!
Hunks of muscle and bone disappear from right leg!
He is stunned!
... 35 points of damage!
Right leg violently separates from hip socket and dematerializes into bloody mass.
Elithain screams and falls to the ground grasping his mangled right leg!
Cloudy tendrils creep outward from Elithain's right leg before vanishing into his abdomen.
... 70 points of damage!
Half of midsection reduced to a fine red mist! Now unsupported, half-vaporized organs topple out onto the ground!
What a mess!

* Elithain drops dead at your feet!

* Elithain just bit the dust!

Hoy gasps.

Shadows leap from the surroundings, engulfing Elithain's body!

Kupaka hugs Madelyne.

Riend gazes in wonder at Madelyne.

Gweneivia dusts off her hands.

Taverkin turns to Madelyne and cheers!

Speaking to Madelyne, Turinrond says, "Congratulations."

Maiehia gazes fondly at Madelyne.

Speaking to Madelyne, you say, "Madelyn....we cannot...keep you as a vessal."

Elithain screams, his corpse being torn apart by tendrils of shadows!

You frown.

A pained expression crosses Altheorn's face.

Speaking surprisedly to Madelyne, Riend says, "You did it..."

Bekke says, "Good. Scream louder."

Speaking to Madelyne, you ask, "How do we proceed?"

Raelee glances warily at Madelyne.

Speaking to Madelyne, you say, "Your body cannot exist."

The voice of Drektor comments, "One to go."

All throughout the chamber, Elithain's voice cries out, his agony bouncing off of every facet of the air like a great cacophany of pain.

Altheorn winces.

Soon, the cries of Elithain fade.

Speaking quietly to you, Riend says, "Give the girl a minute, this is decades in coming."

Fealoke whispers to the group, "Wouldn't..be so quick to assume any good intentions on her part."

Hoy sighs.

The chamber then shakes, and a shadowy voice erupts with laughter.

Nysina glances around the area.

Myasarie glances up.

Speaking to Madelyne, you exclaim, "We've no time Madelyne. Your body will usher in th' blood demon!"

A cold, dark voice whispers, echoing from all around, "The final step....thank you Madelyne..."

Riend blinks.

* Greyhale just bit the dust!

Myasarie quietly says, "L'Naere help us."

You exclaim, "Madelyne, we have no choice, you need to depart somehow!"

A cold, dark voice echoes, "The final betrayal....was all that was needed...."

Riend settles her gaze on Madelyne, watching her intently.

Speaking to Riend, Raelee says, "... Cross, like the rest, was just a means to an end..."

* Greyhale just bit the dust!

Madelyne blinks.

Madelyne says, "But..."

Madelyne weakly says, "I...stopped him..."

You frown.

Fealoke glances sharply at Madelyne.

Speaking huskily to Madelyne, Kupaka says, "You tried."

Speaking to Madelyne, you state, "It was always th' construct. Your body. It isn’t your soul."

Riend strides a few steps forward.

Riend touches Madelyne.

Speaking deeply to Madelyne, Olgretien says, "Which is wut de Shadow wanted."

Speaking to Madelyne, you say, "We need to destroy that to stop "Him"."

Madelyne weakly says, "Yes...I am sorry...."

Madelyne weakly exclaims, "I'm sorry!"

You glance at Riend.

You glance at Raelee.

Speaking slowly to Madelyne, Riend says, "Perhaps he knew you better than you did, that somehow he knew you would betray and kill him? He was a twisted, evil man."

Madelyne goes to move forward, trying to lower herself to your mercy, when tendrils of shadows bleed through the air, snaking around her head, throat, torso, arms and legs. With a ear-piercing cry, Madelyne's voice echoes on the air and a pale ethereal specter, her blurry form appearing like Madelyne, rises from the urnon golem and is pulled into a shimmering pocket of air.

Rozy asks, "Did see thats?"

Lifting first one foot and then another, Riend slowly backpedals.

Altheorn softly says, "She...was taken."

Fealoke says, "Forced her spirit out of it."

Svardin whispers to the group, "Might be chance to destroy the body."

Daenalan softly says, "Must still have need of her."

The voice of Drektor says, "Then lets break the shell."

Altheorn softly asks, "And who do we have now?"

Madelyne grins coldly, her eyes reflecting no emotion.

Maiehia quietly says, "That's Cross."

Bekke says, "Wonderful."

Ridic nods.

Bekke says, "Cross is back."

Riend dubiously mentions, "...or worse than Cross."

Ridic asks, "Shall we put an end to him again?"

Fealoke says, "Always was going to happen. No room for her spirit in there as well."

Raelee agrees with Riend.

Raelee says, "... the shadow incarnate."

Narrow bands of shadowy energy bleed in through the walls, twisting and bending to attach to the back of Madelyne, (what was once her) back.

The urnon golem, still somewhat resembling Madelyne, stands near motionless, as shadows continue to fill the chamber around you.

Ridic says, "Be ready."

Ridic says, "That things not gonna play nice."

Rozy takes a few steps back.

Raelee stares at Madelyne.

Myasarie quietly says, "The transformation canna be allowed to finish."

A voice can be heard faintly in the distance, resembling Aralyte's at first. Her voice, alien and beautiful pierces your mind, "Ledo patan rena tilnak tenek klaloc de lenath!"

Altheorn softly says, "The Blade."

You whisper, "We need to destroy it as it's between valences!" to your group.

Raelee says, "... no, it is good. She is working."

Bekke nods to you.

Phever tightens her grip on her kroderine waraxe.

The room begins to pool with shadows, Madelyne's form begin to slowly shift. Silence suffocates the air for a moment.

The silence of the shadows is pierced by a melodic voice resonating all around you, "Leneth da roh klaneo cra heef, leneth da roh klaneo cra heef, leneth da roh klaneo cra heef."

Taverkin grins.

Nysina furrows her brow.

(Maiehia lowers rosewood runestaff to her side.)

Speaking to a tiny red-eyed hedgehog, Hoy says, "Get me out of here."

Riend shifts her weight, restlessly leaning back and forth.

Raelee quietly murmurs, "Leneth dah roh klaneo..."

Madelyne begins to twitch.

Raelee furrows her brow.

Riend glances inquiringly at Raelee.

Maiehia ponders.

Myasarie glances at Madelyne.

Speaking curiously to Raelee, Riend asks, "Do you understand any of it, Magister Svala?"

Maiehia quietly asks, "Do that again, please?"

Speaking confusedly to Riend, Raelee says, "I am not certain."

Speaking carefully to Raelee, Rozy repeats, "LeNeth da roh klaNeo cra heef."

Raelee nods slightly at Rozy.

Suddenly, a tendril of shadows snaps off of the golem's back, recoiling into oblivion.

A gnarled, demonic growl echoes through the chamber. More shadowy tendrils leap forward, grasping onto the golem.

Svardin says, "Leneth da roh klaneo cra heef, leneth da roh klaneo cra heef, leneth da roh klaneo cra heef."

You try to pull Madelyne towards you.

Speaking quietly to himself, Altheorn says, "Leneth da roh klaneo cra heef."

Altheorn softly says, "Leneth da roh klaneo cra heef."

Raelee slowly repeats, "... leneth da roh klaneo, cra heef..."

Riend blinks.

Another tendril shatters, breaking apart.

(Raelee pauses, as if taking a moment to taste the words.)

Maiehia slowly says, "Leneth da roh klaneo cra heef, leneth da roh klaneo cra heef, leneth da roh klaneo cra heef."

Rozy carefully chants, "Leneth da roh klaneo cra heef."

Svardin says, "Leneth da roh klaneo cra heef."

Maiehia scratches her head.

Like a tapestry of shadows being slowly unraveled, the threads of darkness go taut, fighting, resisting, trying to pull back. A dark, cold voice rumbles across the broken and bleak realm, "You are weak... you are powerless... you are..."

Altheorn softly says, "Leneth da roh klaneo cra heef..." repeating the prase again. "Leneth da rog klaneo cra heef."

(Daenalan murmurs beneath his breath "Leneth da roh klaneo cra..")

Olgretien deeply says, "Leneth da roh klaneo cra heef, leneth da roh klaneo cra heef, leneth da roh klaneo cra heef."

Chamorr recites heartily:

"' leneth da roh klaneo cra heef"

Ridic begins a steady and decisive chant, as if rallying the troops.

Svardin chants in an almost imperceptible voice.

A soft voice echoes, "Undone."

Rozy taunts, "We are betters than yous!"

Daenalan softly says, "We are only as powerless as we let ourselves be."

Traiva carefully says, "Laneth da roh klaneo cra heef."

You recite:

"Have faith!"

Raelee repeats, "Leneth da roh... klaneo cra heef."

The shadows swirl about the chamber, some desperately grasping at the urnon golem.

Tolwynn says, "Leneth da roh klaneo cra heef."

Bekke settles her gaze on Madelyne, watching her intently.
Speaking softly to Madelyne, Altheorn says, "Undone...you are unmade."

Voices, many familiar to you, echo throughout the chamber of time, "Undone...."

Altheorn softly says, "Leneth da roh klaneo cra heef."

Chamorr heartily says, "Leneth da roh klaneo cra heef."

Speaking to Madelyne, Svardin says, "Leneth da roh klaneo cra heef."

Speaking softly to Madelyne, Phever says, "Let go."

You raise your hand.

Through the shimmering air you see....Aralyte's eyes shatter like glass, tiny shards of feystones scattering and dissolving away. The four shadowy tendrils pull tight one last time and a loud, painful, and harsh growl resounds all around you. The threads of darkness split, each one torn from the others, and each one dissolving into the distance as the demonic growl fades to silence.

(Rozy stomps around at the shadows twitching on the ground towards Madelyne.)

You gaze up into the heavens.

Suddenly, the air grows warmer, the chill fleeting. The walls fade from black, to grey, to white, to nearly like glass. Shadow tendrils thrash around the golem...some limp, some writhing, some reaching....grasping...

The shimmering veil between the nexus and the shadows beyond thins and fades, the tendrils of shadows severed in half.

The coils of shadows try to wrap around the urnon golem, trying to survive...trying to make contact....

As the shadows reach out to the urnon golem, the structure of the golem shifts slightly, turning various shades of black...and the metal stops moving.

Riend holds her breath.

Shadows twist, trying to burrow into the urnon golem, and the metal appears vulnerable.

You exclaim, "Destroy it!"

You concentrate intently, focusing all your energies.

Olgretien pauses in place and glances around for a moment, as if pondering which direction to go.

With nothing left to grasp, nothing left to contain it, nothing left to give it life....the last of the shadowy tendrils falls flat, slowly wilting and crumbling away.

Ridic lets out a cheer!

Olgretien lets out a cheer!

Kupaka lets out a cheer!

Chamorr lets out a cheer!

Riend lets out a sigh of relief.

(Rozy stomps at the spot where the tendril fell for good measure.)

(Daenalan murmurs thanks to Lumnis beneath his breath.)

Raelee absently states, "... though our current temporal location is still a point of concern..."

Ridic nods understandingly.

(Raelee goes still in concentration again.)

Raelee closes her eyes for a moment.
