CoG Log of 2/21/99 Meeting
Where Lumnis Appeared
A grey-haired old woman wanders in and smiles.
[Sneaky Kobold Table]
On the wall hangs a painting of a kobold lying in ambush behind a tree stump. A short sword firmly clenched in his fist, the kobold scouts for easy victims. You also see a grey-haired old woman.

Bloodsnake says, "welcome, who might you be"
Nanna rubs a crystal amulet.
Nanna gets an odd look on her face.
Lavinnia pulls out a chair and plops herself down at the table.
Starwind says, "Welcome to our meeting, m'lady."
It is your typical old woman.
It is in good shape.
It has nothing at this time.
Deavon says, "Greetings m'Lady"
As Nanna pulls on her crystal amulet, her expression grows darker.
Truekillr says, "Evening good woman."
Lavinnia says, "Good evening."
Titaniia waves to your table, looking as though she wishes to join you. To invite Titaniia to your table, type INVITE Titaniia.
Starwind pulls out a chair and plops herself down at the table.
Cosgrave says, "good evening ma'am"
Deavon pulls out a chair and plops herself down at the table.
Sadryne waves at Titaniia and invites her to come sit with you.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Your conversation sounded concerned, so I thought I might step in and see if I couldn't help a bit."
A grey-haired old woman says, "Having been around a while."
Lady Titaniia just arrived.
A grey-haired old woman smiles.
Bloodsnake says, "any help would be appreciated"
Starwind says, "That would be most excellent."
Titaniia curtsies.
Sadryne says, "Please do. Our elders are important to us."
Titaniia says, "eve, all."
Lavinnia beams!
Truekillr smiles at the old woman.
Kytaara smiles at the old woman.
A grey-haired old woman asks, "Well, what seems to be the difficulty?"
Lavinnia nods.
Titaniia furrows her brow.
Kytaara just kissed Titaniia on the cheek.
Lavinnia just gave Titaniia a smooch.
Titaniia just kissed Kytaara on the forehead.
Truekillr says, "We all have separate issues it seems."
Truekillr smiles.
Bloodsnake says, "the problem is that some of us have not been able to contact our gods"
Titaniia asks, "Got room fey yes ole mum saved?"
Starwind nods.
Bloodsnake says, "when in the past we could"
Lavinnia nods to Bloodsnake.
Starwind says, "That most of all."
Kytaara nods to Titaniia.
Starwind smiles at the old woman.
Truekillr says, "Mine is that the Arkati seem...detached from our every day lives. Including my Lorminstra."
Bloodsnake says, "we are concerned for their well being"
Titaniia pulls out a chair and plops herself down at the table.
Truekillr nods to Bloodsnake.
Kytaara says, "scoot over here, Titan"
Lavinnia rubs Truekillr gently.
Sadryne says, "The Arkati seem unconcerned and uninvolved with their followers."
Titaniia leans on Kytaara.
Truekillr nods to you.
Truekillr sighs.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Well, let me ask you this...."
Tivanwy leans on Titaniia.
Lavinnia says, "We want to bring stronger faith to the lands."
Deavon leans forward.
Titaniia just kissed Tivanwy on the forehead.
Sadryne nods to Lavinnia.
Lavinnia clasps her hand over her mouth.
A grey-haired old woman asks, "When a mother rushes to her child each time it cries, does that action teach her child to find help himself?"
Kytaara exclaims, "hah!"
Deavon says, "I don't care to bring a stronger dark faith to the lands, thank ye"
Lavinnia shakes her head.
Titaniia says, "Lotta folks doan even believe that th' Arkati are gods anymore."
Deavon shudders.
Ranil says, "well put"
Kytaara exclaims, "exactly elder woman!"
Starwind just nudged Deavon.
Deavon winks at Starwind.
Truekillr says, "An interesting analogy, however, we are talking about our lives devotion..."
Bloodsnake says, "but Eorgina has many enemies and I feel that she has grown weaker and weaker"
Nanna chuckles.
Truekillr nods to Bloodsnake.
A grey-haired old woman asks, "Is a child not devoted to his mother?"
Sadryne asks, "But what if the child just cries and cries and the mother never ever comes?"
Ranil says, "though, eventually, the child begins to wonder if he has a mother at all"
Ranil smiles at the old woman.
Bloodsnake says, "I feel this strongly"
Lavinnia nods.
Truekillr says, "And I am concerned for my Lady's safety."
Sadryne nods to Ranil.
Lavinnia nods to Truekillr.
A grey-haired old woman says, "If you are concerned for the safety of your gods, then perhaps your faith is not so strong."
A grey-haired old woman shrugs.
Kytaara nods to the old woman.
Starwind scratches her head.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Or perhaps you are not so sure that your gods are who they say they are."
Nanna chuckles.
Starwind says, "She's got a point."
Bloodsnake says, "my faith is very strong and I feel in the pit of my stomach that something bad has happened to her"
Truekillr says, "does the mother not reward the child for his/her faith and good deeds? Even a visit or a touching would be sufficient"
A grey-haired old woman says, "Perhaps you have indigestion."
A grey-haired old woman looks over towards Bloodsnake and nods.
Deavon chuckles.
Lavinnia nods to Truekillr.
Kytaara asks, "she speaks my heart well in this --I concur old woman--what is your name, Mater?"
Bloodsnake shakes her head.
Deavon clasps her hand over her mouth.
Titaniia asks, "Meyno lives in th' depths of th' earth, forever imprisoned. I know this, an' know she is weak. Would you say I am any less devoted to her fey knowing that?"
Deavon coughs.
Nanna begins chuckling at Bloodsnake.
Bloodsnake sighs.
Lavinnia says, "The mother always rewards good actions."
Tivanwy giggles.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Oh, my name is not important, really."
A grey-haired old woman smiles.
A grey-haired old woman says, "But listen."
Kytaara smiles at the old woman.
Starwind leans forward.
A grey-haired old woman says, "These gods, they are not common parents. They are transcendant."
Truekillr leans on Lavinnia propping his chin on her shoulder.
Nanna says, "There are many that would no doubt value the fact that the gods have left us alone, my brother among them."
Truekillr nods to the old woman.
Lavinnia nods.
Nanna chuckles.
Tivanwy says, "Even were the Huntress to not exist anymore, we would still honor her by following her teachings"
Nanna shrugs.
(Titaniia pulls Tivanwy forward and begins pulling twigs out of her hair as she listens.)
A grey-haired old woman says, "If they came whenever you called, they would be little better than pet puppies."
Tivanwy winces.
Nanna says, "of course, they may also seek to take advantage..."
Nanna furrows her brow.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Faith is sometimes belief without a tangible notice."
Bloodsnake says, "but she hasn't come at all in a long long time"
Bloodsnake says, "no visions"
Bloodsnake says, "no feelings"
Sadryne says, "But for those of us who live our lives to do what they Tell us to do...our lives are lessened by silence."
A grey-haired old woman asks, "Do you truly need them, Bloodsnake? Is your faith truly that weak?"
Titaniia says, "Ma'am.. you look ol..err, wise."
Truekillr says, "But good lady does out devotion not strengthen them as we have thought? When we preach and try to gain more followers, it is not easily done when the Arkati are never seen...or never touched."
Bloodsnake says, "I fear that one of her enemies has gotten to her"
Bloodsnake says, "I am protective of her, I want to help if I can"
Titaniia asks, "Surely you can remember a time..not so long ago when Th' Arkati's touch could constantly be felt upon these lands?"
Nanna begins chuckling at Titaniia.
Truekillr nods to Titaniia.
Lavinnia nods to Titaniia.
Truekillr says, "precisely."
A grey-haired old woman says, "If your life cannot be made whole, save by acknowledgment from a god, then perhaps you should look elsewhere for your problem."
Deavon nods to the old woman.
Sadryne says, "You misunderstand me matron."
Bloodsnake says, "I just want assurance that she is not in trouble"
Joshell just left.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Perhaps it is not that the gods are ignoring you, but that they are wishing for you to seek elsewhere, and have realized that perhaps their presence was too easily attained."
Tivanwy smiles at the old woman.
Deavon nods.
Bloodsnake shakes her head.
A grey-haired old woman asks, "Should not the coming of a god, in any form, be a special miracle?"
Starwind nods.
Nanna chuckles.
Truekillr smirks.
Titaniia says, "Or that they have turned their attentions to others, more worthy then us here in Th' Landing."
Titaniia shrugs.
Deavon says, "That certainly would be in keeping from the lessons learned at Leya's feet"
Lavinnia nods to the old woman.
Lavinnia says, "Aye, it should."
Bloodsnake says, "I do not wish her to come...but only to give me some kind of sign that she is well"
Lavinnia says, "But some of us have never seen our gods, and yet our belief is devout."
Kytaara nods to the old woman.
Tivanwy says, "I've never been blessed with my Lady's presence"
Tivanwy nods to Lavinnia.
Lavinnia nods to Tivanwy.
Titaniia rubs Tivanwy gently.
A grey-haired old woman says, "And when one can predict that coming, with such regularity that one can say they have not heard in a while and are concerned, then perhaps that coming has lessened in value."
A grey-haired old woman asks, "Who is your Lady, Tivanwy?"
Bloodsnake says, "but its been so long"
Tivanwy says, "The Huntress"
Titaniia says, "I have thrice heard Th' heartbreakin sound of Meyno's voice, Tivanwy. It fills an' wrings your soul at once."
A grey-haired old woman says, "Ahh, the Huntress."
A grey-haired old woman smiles.
Bloodsnake says, "and we've heard of Shar who wishes to harm her"
A grey-haired old woman says, "And such a story she is."
Lavinnia says, "Mine is Niima. I've never seen her, but I feel her presence strongly."
A grey-haired old woman chuckles.
Tivanwy nods to the old woman.
Truekillr shakes his head.
Nanna says, "Shar wishes harm to everyone."
A grey-haired old woman says, "And Niima, the Playful One."
Lavinnia nods to the old woman.
Lavinnia grins.
A grey-haired old woman asks, "Who is your patron, Bloodsnake?"
Truekillr says, "It is not the issue of not having her near me, its the issue that NONE of the Arkati seem bothered by the lack of faith as a whole in these lands."
Truekillr shrugs.
Bloodsnake says, "Eorgina the mistress of darkness"
Sadryne nods to Truekillr.
Starwind just touched Truekillr.
A grey-haired old woman chuckles.
Lavinnia rubs Truekillr gently.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Most would consider the lack of a visit from Eorgina a blessing in itself."
Bloodsnake says, "of pain and domination"
(Titaniia finds a particularly nasty knot in Tivanwy's hair, pulls out a dagger and simply cuts it out.)
Kytaara says, "Pay what need have I to seek visions of Leya --when her heart is my own heart."
Lavinnia says, "Not Bloodsnake."
Deavon says, "I've seen no lack of faith... I see acts of faith every time I walk in the lands"
Lavinnia smiles at the old woman.
A pained expression crosses Tivanwy's face.
Bloodsnake says, "look at my symbol of my devotion"
Tivanwy says, "Don't pull so hard"
(Bloodsnake points to her neck)
Kytaara nods to Deavon.
Titaniia says, "You should be more careful."
Tivanwy smiles over her shoulder at Titaniia.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Your very concern is a tribute to your faith."
Cosgrave says, "some of us fear the presence of their masters"
A grey-haired old woman says, "But I would think that, should your goddess be in trouble, there would be no mistaking it."
Nanna nods to the old woman.
Kytaara says, "Bloodsnake talks about no grace from her Lady --but she walks the lands with a snapped neck."
Kytaara smirks.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Vague feelings are not something I would associate with a deity in trouble."
Deavon says, "I would think a call of trouble would be stronger, not weaker."
Bloodsnake says, "yes I agree...the fact that I don't feel her anymore is cause for concern"
Tivanwy says, "Perhaps Eorgina found someone new to break and is having fun playing"
Tivanwy smiles at Bloodsnake.
Deavon begins chuckling at Tivanwy.
Truekillr shakes his head.
Truekillr sighs slowly.
A grey-haired old woman says, "If you do not feel her anymore, perhaps the problem is with you, not her."
A grey-haired old woman shrugs.
Titaniia smiles at Tivanwy.
Bloodsnake says, "that is what I want to find out"
Starwind scratches her chin.
Kytaara nods to the old woman.
Nanna says, "Eorgina, I don't thing has ever concerned herself greatly with the affairs of mortals, directly...It'd be like asking Koar to."
Sadryne says, "None of her Priestesses has felt her for a long time."
Bloodsnake says, "she is around whenever one dominates another"
A grey-haired old woman says, "Perhaps...."
Bloodsnake says, "but no longer"
Sadryne asks, "Would you call the whole Priestesshood damned then?"
Truekillr leans back in his chair, balancing himself on two legs for a few moments, then sets the chair back down on all four legs.
A grey-haired old woman says, "...perhaps her priestesses should seek each other, and reaffirm their faith."
Truekillr asks, "Allow me a question?"
Truekillr peers quizzically at a grey-haired old woman.
Bloodsnake says, "we do so old woman"
A grey-haired old woman says, "I know that, throughout history, sects have lost faith before."
Starwind says, "But what about those that have not been called, but have not shown a presence, either, like my Lord? It's discouraging, although livable."
Titaniia asks, "When Th' entire following of a God or Goddess turns away in Th' belief that they have been abandoned by their patron, is Th' fault solely with them? Donna Th' Arkati themselves have a responsibility to their faithful?"
Juspera just left.
Joshell waves to your table, looking as though he wishes to join you. To invite Joshell to your table, type INVITE Joshell.
A grey-haired old woman says, "And that, without a touch from their deity, that they have renewed that faith. And that the entire thing was a test."
A grey-haired old woman shrugs.
Starwind waves at Joshell and invites him to come sit at this table.
Truekillr asks, "In your opinion old lass, would you agree or not that the faith gathered for Lorminstra in her time of need helped her or was blind idiocy?"
Lord Joshell just arrived.
Truekillr peers quizzically at a grey-haired old woman.
Joshell pulls out a chair and plops himself down at the table.
Joshell mutters under his breath.
Starwind rubs Joshell gently.
Lavinnia blinks in amazement at Truekillr.
Bloodsnake says, "I have devoted my life to her...my chastity..my loyalty"
Nanna blinks at Truekillr.
The dull tingle in your mind subsides.
The bright luminescence fades from around Truekillr.
A grey-haired old woman says, "If an Arkati cannot turn his or her back for a moment without his or her followers losing faith, the problem is not with that Arkati."
Tivanwy removes a chocolate truffle from in her silvery satchel.
A grey-haired old woman shrugs.
Sadryne says, "Yes me too, all but the chastity bit."
Deavon says, "I have received the touch of my Lady when I have least expected it, not during the moments I most wanted it. And that appears to have made sense."
Sadryne shivers.
Nanna says, "which time Truekillr? She's constantly in need it seems"
Bloodsnake says, "but it is not a moment"
Nanna begins chuckling at Truekillr.
Truekillr asks, "To ask it simply, did the masses held grant her power to defeat the Vvrael or was I simply fooling myself?"
Deavon just touched a sparkling white Leya medallion inset with a tear-shaped pearl.
Truekillr glances at Nanna.
Truekillr says, "You are close to stepping over the line."
Kytaara says, "I worshiped Leya --long before the shrine was found --when my ears were met with stony silence --twas my faith all them years that I still have --whether the Lady grace me or nae."
A grey-haired old woman says, "It is a mystery where the Arkati draw their power."
Nanna begins chuckling at Truekillr.
Truekillr frowns.
Deavon nods to Kytaara.
Deavon says, "I recall many a time when you came to me in despair"
Truekillr says, "Then the masses shall continue and my devotion shall continue."
Tivanwy smiles at Kytaara.
Deavon smiles at Kytaara.
Kytaara nods to Deavon.
Deavon rubs Kytaara gently.
A grey-haired old woman says, "But I would say that, in the trial with the Vvrael, she needed all the help she could get."
Lavinnia nods to Truekillr.
Tivanwy says, "Exactly, I don't need to see the wind to know it exists"
Truekillr nods to the old woman.
Truekillr says, "Too true."
Truekillr sighs.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Very good analogy, Tivanwy."
Kytaara says, "vera true, Dark Sister Tivanwy"
A grey-haired old woman says, "Tivanwy there is a wise one that more people should listen to."
Tivanwy smiles at Kytaara.
Titaniia smiles proudly at Tivanwy.
Titaniia says, "Now if she would just comb her hair on her own."
A grey-haired old woman says, "Wisdom, children, is found within. So is your faith."
Bloodsnake says, "I've always had a spiritual connection with her...it has been broken...I must find out if she is still with us"
Tivanwy squints at Titaniia.
Deavon nods to the old woman.
Lavinnia nods to the old woman.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Bloodsnake, I can assure you, nothing has happened to Eorgina."
Tivanwy says, "I keep telling you, knots hold magic"
Truekillr grumbles.
Nanna says, "And in the trial with the raver, and in the time with the griffon sword...and in the time with Astron...hmm"
Nanna nods.
Nanna chuckles.
Bloodsnake says, "how do you know this"
Titaniia looks over at Tivanwy and shakes her head.
Sadryne says, "This is a personal matter between us and our Lady, we'll deal with it."
A grey-haired old woman says, "I can look at all the darkness in the lands and tell you that with a certainty."
Sadryne elbows Bloodsnake in the ribs in a playful sort of way.
Nanna shrugs.
Lavinnia asks, "Wise one, is it foolish of us to want to bring the masses to the Arkati then?"
Truekillr nods to Lavinnia.
Bloodsnake asks, "she is not in danger?"
Kytaara nods to the old woman.
Kytaara sighs.
Truekillr says, "A very good question."
A grey-haired old woman says, "No, Lavinnia, it is not."
Starwind smiles.
Lavinnia says, "This is our desire."
Bloodsnake says, "but what of Shar"
A grey-haired old woman says, "But one cannot teach the masses, 'See, we call and they come.'"
Truekillr nods to Lavinnia.
Truekillr nods to the old woman.
Truekillr says, "naturally."
Bloodsnake asks, "Does Shar still plot against our gods?"
Lavinnia says, "Oh, I know that. We need to lead them."
A grey-haired old woman says, "We must teach them, 'We believe, we hold our faith, and occasionally, they grace us with themselves.'"
Lavinnia says, "Much like your mother and children analogy."
Kytaara asks, "Heh --I sit at table wif Luukosions --and ye nae see miracles about?"
Lavinnia nods to the old woman.
Deavon nods to the old woman.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Shar would plot against her nose to spite her face."
Truekillr nods to the old woman.
A grey-haired old woman grins.
Tivanwy giggles.
Bloodsnake says, "Shar has great powers"
Starwind chuckles.
Tivanwy nods to the old woman.
Lavinnia chuckles.
Nanna nods to the old woman.
Truekillr smirks.
Deavon says, "Wise words, then I am sure your years have given ye much insight"
Truekillr says, "So she thinks"
Deavon smiles at the old woman.
Truekillr winks at Bloodsnake.
Bloodsnake says, "I've seen it True"
Tivanwy offers Kytaara a chocolate truffle.
Truekillr places his hand on his Lorminstra symbol.
Lavinnia says, "Down boy."
Kytaara accepts Tivanwy's chocolate truffle.
Kytaara smiles at Tivanwy.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Shar is certainly not to be lightly dismissed. But against one who would call herself Queen of the Gods, I think Shar is little more than a buzzing gnat."
A grey-haired old woman shrugs.
Starwind says, "Down boys and girls alike."
Truekillr nods to the old woman.
Truekillr says, "Precisely."
Truekillr grins.
Bloodsnake says, "but Shar is full of trickery"
Kytaara removes a frosted Elven chocolate muffin from in her striped snowcat cloak.
Lavinnia chuckles.
Lavinnia nods to Starwind.
Kytaara offers Tivanwy a frosted Elven chocolate muffin.
A grey-haired old woman asks, "Is Eorgina without resources?"
Titaniia asks, "an' Th' Erphare? How do Th' Arkati see them?"
Tivanwy looks over at Kytaara and shakes her head.
Kytaara shrugs.
Lavinnia says, "I believe that all the Arkati are full of trickery, depending on how you define it."
Tivanwy says, "I can't have mud"
Truekillr nods to Titaniia.
Tivanwy grins.
Bloodsnake says, "that I don't know, she may have been weakened"
Truekillr says, "Another good question."
Kytaara put a frosted Elven chocolate muffin in her silk elven tunic.
Starwind asks, "You downspeaking your own Goddess, Bloodsnake?"
Starwind just nudged Bloodsnake.
Kytaara put a chocolate truffle in her silk elven tunic.
Cosgrave just touched a carved bone Onar symbol.
Bloodsnake says, "I am just concerned"
Nanna yawns.
Titaniia leans against a long table.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Bloodsnake, I think that it is your faith that has been weakend, not the one your faith has been placed in."
Cosgrave says, "she has people in her employ that look out for her"
A grey-haired old woman says, "You would know were she in trouble."
Bloodsnake says, "I disagree strongly"
Truekillr flinches.
Kytaara shudders.
Nanna smirks.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Then I think you need to seek more deeply within yourself."
Bloodsnake shakes her head.
Lavinnia asks, "Wise one, you believe our Arkati know we still have faith?"
Ranil says, "we all would, as the lands shook"
A grey-haired old woman asks, "Do you wish so strongly for there to be something wrong with her?"
A grey-haired old woman says, "I know it, Lavinnia."
A grey-haired old woman smiles.
Lavinnia beams!
Bloodsnake says, "I wish to find out so I can help"
Lavinnia exclaims, "Thank you!"
Starwind smiles.
Tivanwy smiles at the old woman.
Bloodsnake says, "I fear the worst"
Truekillr says, "It is difficult to serve, when there is no goal to strive for I think Lass."
Truekillr smiles at the old woman.
A grey-haired old woman says, "You seem to be unwilling to hear aught but the worst."
A grey-haired old woman shrugs.
A grey-haired old woman says, "There is ever a goal, Truekillr."
Bloodsnake says, "when I'm proved wrong I'll be happy again"
Starwind says, "As long as my Lord knows, I'm happy. I will continue to worship him until I learn that he is no more."
Nanna asks, "Bloodsnake, if you think Silence, to a mortal, by Eorgina is a sign that she's in trouble...?"
Kytaara says, "When last I did speak with Leya --she told me my true path lies within me own heart. I can't help but tink dat is the Arkati way of saying, that we do exist for our own lives --not theirs."
A grey-haired old woman says, "Then you may wait a very long time."
Ranil says, "good eve"
Ranil scoots his chair back and stands up.
A grey-haired old woman shrugs.
Lord Ranil just went out.
Bloodsnake says, "yes Nanna"
Nanna asks, "If Shar is a gnat to her, what do you think you are?"
Bloodsnake says, "so be it, I shant give up"
A grey-haired old woman says, "You are presumptuous."
A grey-haired old woman looks over towards Bloodsnake and nods.
Sadryne asks, "And what of me, what of her other Priestesses? Are we not to be upset that our Lady is silent?"
Starwind leans against a long table.
Sadryne glances at a grey-haired old woman.
Bloodsnake says, "the followers of Eorgina will decide our course"
Titaniia says, "I think we all thirst for news of Th' struggles between Th' Arkati..more then we wish to hear of which lass is engaged to which lad. It is Th' nature of mortals."
A grey-haired old woman says, "To one such as Eorgina, it is not necessary for her to prove her existence to you. Rather, it is necessary for you to prove to her that your existence should continue."
Lavinnia says, "I will continue to pray that Niima shows me the way, as well."
Kytaara nods to the old woman.
Tivanwy smiles at Lavinnia.
Bloodsnake says, "I have done so along with the other priestesses for years"
A grey-haired old woman says, "That has ever been Eorgina's way."
Lavinnia smiles at Tivanwy.
A grey-haired old woman asks, "You think she would not test you?"
Bloodsnake says, "in the past she has guided us"
Bloodsnake says, "that is what I want to find out"
Kytaara says, "From what I gather --tis the ways of all Arkati, Old Mater."
Kytaara smiles at the old woman.
Deavon asks, "Perhaps it is time to stand on your own then?"
Deavon smiles at Bloodsnake.
Nanna asks, "The gods have been silent before, they where silent for how long during the Vvrael? Oh cept for Lorminstra's cries? I hardly think it's a big deal?"
A grey-haired old woman asks, "Do you think that she finds your concern for her complimentary?"
Bloodsnake says, "nay Deavon, Eorgina saved me from death long ago"
Deavon shrugs.
A grey-haired old woman says, "She may very well find it offensive that you think so little of her."
A grey-haired old woman shrugs.
Kytaara nods to Nanna.
Bloodsnake says, "I don't presume to know what she thinks"
Truekillr smirks.
Bloodsnake exclaims, "I don't think little of her!"
Tivanwy says, "She's used to being dominated by Eorgina, she's probably nervous by her absence is all"
A grey-haired old woman says, "Then don't presume to think she is in trouble simply because she has chosen to be silent for a bit."
Tivanwy waves her hand in a dismissive gesture.
A grey-haired old woman winks at Bloodsnake.
Bloodsnake grumbles.
Bloodsnake says, "the nerve"
Bloodsnake pulls out a chair and plops herself down at the table.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Even in her silence, she dominates you."
A grey-haired old woman chuckles.
Starwind chuckles.
Deavon smiles.
Bloodsnake says, "I am still going to try and contact her tonight"
A grey-haired old woman says, "She has ever been the best at domination."
Deavon says, "That is what Lord Azaer is always saying."
Deavon nods to the old woman.
Bloodsnake says, "regardless of what anyone says"
A grey-haired old woman asks, "And what will you do if she does not answer?"
Lavinnia rubs Bloodsnake gently.
Truekillr asks, "Wise one, what of the seeming....ease between the differing Faiths? Little is done but verbal sparring against each other. Do the Arkati battle still and would it be too presumptuous, as you said, to carry that war here?"
Tivanwy asks, "Better question is, what if she does answer?"
Bloodsnake says, "I shall gather the followers and we will pray on it"
Kytaara says, "aye be careful, Bloodsnake --she may test yes faith by specifically nae answerin' ye."
Nanna blinks at Truekillr.
Deavon begins chuckling at Kytaara.
Sadryne says, "If she does answer, then we will take either the punishment or reward she bestows on us."
Bloodsnake says, "if that is her will....so be it"
A grey-haired old woman asks, "Truekillr, have you heard the story of how the Arkati came into the world, after the war of the Ur-Daemons?"
Deavon says, "Thank the Arkati Leya is nae so capricious."
Truekillr nods to the old woman.
Deavon smiles at Kytaara.
Truekillr says, "Naturally."
Nanna says, "As long as Koar reigns, all the gods can do, is battle with mortals Truekillr, that's been a legend passed down for many generations"
Kytaara nods to Deavon.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Koar himself decreed that there would be no war between the gods."
Sadryne says, "No outright war."
Kytaara says, "I dunno, Deavon --Leya tested my own faith quite soundly"
Truekillr says, "Let him decree, but it happens none-the-less."
Truekillr nods to you.
Titaniia says, "When Th' titans disappeared without so much as a spot of blood left behind, Bloodsnake.. I prayed, an' prayed an' prayed. Had folks commune on my behalf.. some things are mysteries that Th' Gods canna be bothered to show us Th' answers to. Mayhaps she is doin something beyond what she feels mortals
have a right to know."
Bloodsnake says, "he doesnt control my Mistress"
Sadryne says, "That doesn't keep them from struggling with one another."
Tivanwy rubs Titaniia gently.
Truekillr says, "The huntress and Arachne no?"
A grey-haired old woman chuckles.
Truekillr asks, "Luukos' lies etc?"
Tivanwy frowns at Truekillr.
Bloodsnake says, "Koar is a has been"
A grey-haired old woman says, "Oh Bloodsnake. Someday, I anticipate, you will understand."
Titaniia frowns.
A grey-haired old woman says, "You are a good priestess, however."
Kytaara mutters toad-in-house.
A grey-haired old woman smiles.
Tivanwy says, "Say betrayer instead, it's a better name for her"
Starwind smirks.
Titaniia glances at Kytaara.
Truekillr says, "Perhaps I worded that incorrectly."
Titaniia rubs a crystal amulet.
Titaniia gets an odd look on her face.
Bloodsnake says, "Eorgina will overthrow him and his weak wife Lumnis"
Truekillr shrugs.
A grey-haired old woman laughs.
Bloodsnake says, "and will rule supreme"
A grey-haired old woman says, "A good priestess indeed."
Starwind just touched Bloodsnake.
Truekillr says, "It is irrelevant."
(Sadryne draws little crowns on her thigh.)
Starwind says, "Down girl."
(Truekillr rubs his temples.)
Lavinnia says, "I fear that day. Niima would have a hard time."
Bloodsnake says, "it has been foretold Starwind"
Tivanwy smiles at Truekillr.
Bloodsnake says, "she has told us of her plans"
Starwind says, "Now, now. We don't hold these meeting to preach about our deities."
A grey-haired old woman says, "That's the strange thing about mortal prophets. So often, they are incorrect."
Starwind says, "Otherwise I'd yammer about Andelas all night."
Kytaara chuckles.
Truekillr nods to the old woman.
Starwind winks at Bloodsnake.
Bloodsnake says, "but it came from the Mistress herself"
Deavon chuckles.
Deavon nods to the old woman.
Truekillr says, "Which is the single worst thing for that faith."
Tivanwy says, "Wishful thinking then"
Starwind waves her hand in a dismissive gesture.
A grey-haired old woman says, "I'd hardly expect her to tell you that she would lose."
Sadryne says, "Caterwauling, in Andelas's case it's caterwauling."
Sadryne ducks her head.
Lavinnia giggles.
Truekillr says, "Which is where my concern of the lack of knowledge comes into play."
Bloodsnake says, "she shan't lose"
Starwind says, "That holds no meaning for someone not a follower."
Starwind smiles at Bloodsnake.
Lavinnia clasps her hand over her mouth.
Kytaara says, "Aye --I was just telling these folks before --if they screwed up as often as I did --there deities would move intae their houses."
Starwind pokes you in the ribs.
The very powerful look leaves Joshell.
The white light leaves Joshell.
(Sadryne squeals!)
Titaniia says, "Bah, you are a good lass."
Bloodsnake snorts.
Tivanwy says, "So much easier to worship my Lady, she doesn't want to rule"
Tivanwy chuckles.
Cosgrave just left.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Your Lady certainly is a story in fascination."
Deavon begins chuckling at Tivanwy.
A grey-haired old woman looks over towards Tivanwy and nods.
Bloodsnake says, "absolute power is the ultimate triumph"
Titaniia says, "I think I am Th' only one here who knows where m'lady is at all times."
Tivanwy smiles at the old woman.
Starwind says, "Nor does my Lord... as much as he lets on, at least."
Starwind grins.
Sadryne nods to Bloodsnake.
Truekillr says, "We can preach our Arkati's ideals, but how do we know when those ideals change, or something is mis-represented? Then the faith is damaged."
Deavon says, "Absolute power corrupts... absolutely."
Deavon smiles.
Lavinnia nods to Titaniia.
A grey-haired old woman asks, "How long have the gods been silent to you?"
Bloodsnake says, "only to the weak Deavon"
Nanna begins chuckling at Titaniia.
The brilliant luminescence fades from around Tivanwy.
Deavon shrugs.
Sadryne says, "We're already corrupt, thank you very much."
Lavinnia says, "I know I certainly don't know where my Lady is ever. Except in my heart."
Deavon says, "And the strong alike, I've seen it."
Starwind asks, "All of us, or someone in particular?"
Starwind smiles at the old woman.
A grey-haired old woman asks, "Several years? Several decades?"
Kytaara says, "Truekillr --have faith in yes deity --if ye swerve from their message --they shall point ye back."
Tivanwy smiles at the old woman.
Bloodsnake says, "has been two years since I spoke to my Mistress"
Truekillr says, "The last I've spoken with my lady was in the middle of the Vvrael saga almost 9 months hence."
Truekillr nods to Kytaara.
Titaniia asks, "Last I heard was Luukos. That was bout..umm...three months ago?"
Nanna says, "I think there's a story that Mularos is imprisoned as well Titaniia..although there's doubts to it's voracity."
Deavon says, "Then just some have been quiet."
Cosgrave waves to your table, looking as though he wishes to join you. To invite Cosgrave to your table, type INVITE Cosgrave.
Tivanwy says, "The Huntress came to rescue Kyrion when he called on her for help"
Deavon glances at Kytaara.
Starwind says, "I've never heard as much as a meow from Andelas, ma'am."
Truekillr says, "I have absolute faith, perhaps I simply want to help TOO much."
Bloodsnake says, "she saved me from death and branded me with her mark"
Deavon just touched an amethyst band.
Kytaara says, "Maybe they all on the correct path"
Starwind waves at Cosgrave and invites him to come sit at this table.
Truekillr says, "Zealotry can be dangerous."
A grey-haired old woman says, "I would worry if you do not hear from them after a decade. But to the Arkati, time is a different thing."
Bloodsnake scratches at a tattooed symbol of Eorgina.
Lord Cosgrave just arrived.
Cosgrave pulls out a chair and plops himself down at the table.
Cosgrave shivers.
A grey-haired old woman says, "For those that live so long, your months and years are hardly eyeblinks."
Titaniia says, "If you like, you kin all come listen to m'lady weep, afterwards."
Truekillr nods to the old woman.
Nanna chuckles.
Lavinnia rubs Titaniia gently.
Tivanwy rubs Titaniia gently.
A grey-haired old woman says, "How uplifting, Titannia."
Starwind rubs Titaniia gently.
Titaniia smiles.
Nanna smiles at Titaniia.
Titaniia nods.
Juspera waves to your table, looking as though she wishes to join you. To invite Juspera to your table, type INVITE Juspera.
Bloodsnake says, "Old woman who are you that you know so much about our gods"
Tivanwy smiles at the old woman.
Lavinnia says, "I'd rather just go to the shore and pray to my Lady, Titaniia, but thank you."
Deavon waves at Juspera and invites her to come sit at this table.
Bloodsnake asks, "are you a sorcerer?"
Lady Juspera just arrived.
A grey-haired old woman says, "As I have said, who I am is unimportant."
Juspera pulls out a chair and plops herself down at the table.
Titaniia says, "Everytime I hear her, I am reminded that Khaarne is on his way, an' she will soon be free."
Juspera blinks.
Titaniia smiles at the old woman.
Bloodsnake says, "then how are we to believe you"
Tivanwy says, "I'd like to hear whatever stories of the Huntress you would be willing to share with me"
Starwind says, "Perhaps I'll attempt to find a shrine to Andelas again."
Tivanwy smiles at the old woman.
Kytaara says, "Have faith"
Kytaara smiles at Bloodsnake.
Lavinnia says, "I'd love to hear about Niima."
Starwind smiles slightly, daydreaming.
Truekillr asks, "Aye, What of the elemental gods?"
Bloodsnake says, "you may be an agent of Shar here to throw us off"
Kytaara says, "That is how ye believe her"
Lavinnia leans on Tivanwy.
Nanna begins chuckling at Bloodsnake.
Truekillr asks, "Where are they in the scheme of the Arkati's musings?"
Tivanwy leans on Lavinnia.
A grey-haired old woman gives Bloodsnake a look like a mother who has just caught her child being incredibly dense.
Bloodsnake snarls menacingly!
Lavinnia giggles.
Tivanwy clasps her hand over her mouth.
Tivanwy giggles.
Starwind snickers.
Nanna chuckles.
Cosgrave laughs!
Starwind clasps her hand over her mouth.
Deavon coughs.
Juspera scratches her head.
Bloodsnake says, "I have little trust in mortals"
Starwind scratches her fingernails at a grey-haired old woman, which doesn't seem particularly intimidated.
Starwind winks.
Bloodsnake says, "they deceive"
Sadryne says, "Oh, just a silly little unrelated question...who is the shrine in the Graveyard dedicated to? I just saw it for the first time today, it's so lovely."
Lavinnia glances at a grey-haired old woman.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Yes, an agent of Shar. That would most assuredly be what I am, come to speak peacefully to you and malign Shar by my speech."
Lavinnia asks, "You know she is mortal?"
Kytaara says, "She speaks with the words of Leya --I am not oversure this old woman is mortal."
Juspera says, "Apparently we have a guest... I should disappear from meetings more often."
Nanna nods to the old woman.
Deavon smiles at Kytaara.
Sadryne nods to Juspera.
Starwind just nudged Juspera.
Lavinnia nods to Kytaara.
Sadryne waves a hand at Juspera, dismissing her indifferently.
(Bloodsnake glances suspiciously at the old woman)
A grey-haired old woman wiggles her fingers at Bloodsnake.
Bloodsnake says, "the more you speak the more I think you deceive us"
Kytaara chuckles.
Lavinnia giggles.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Booga. I hereby curse you to have a horrible case of freckles."
Nanna shakes her head.
A grey-haired old woman glances Bloodsnake over carefully.
Starwind laughs!
Kytaara chuckles.
Bloodsnake rolls her eyes.
Sadryne sees Lady Bloodsnake O'Snert the Giantman.
She appears to be in her 110's, has long, straight white hair, violet eyes, and fair skin.<
She has snapped bones and serious bleeding from the neck.
She is wearing a crystal amulet, a long black tulle veil, a coiled cobra, a lock of red hair, a stunning deep crimson skirt with tiny firestone encrusted dark elven bone buttons, a pure silver Aspis pin, some black leather boots with silver serpent-shaped buckles, a gold-stringed thraak skin sack, a large burlap sack, a gold filigree deathstone earring, a golden bug pin, a deep crimson sack, a serpentine black gold bracelet, a stone snake charm suspended from a length of interwoven red and black spidersilk cords, a gem-encrusted steel girdle, a moon-shaped Eorgina pin, a black tower shield, a glass amulet, a deeply enruned satchel with an eerily glittering silver-threaded "X" embroidered upon it, a sturdy crimson leather bodice backlaced with silver serpent-shaped hooks, a faded black leather vruul skin banded tunic fastened with intricately carved dark-elven bone hooks, and a silken cloak as black as a moonless midnight lined with fine red spidersilk and gathered at the throat with a fire-gilded elven skull clasp inset with rubies.
Tivanwy says, "She's not the betrayer"
Tivanwy smiles.
A grey-haired old woman says, "No freckles."
Titaniia says, "I donna think that Shar would bother talkin to Th' likes of us. Much more fun ta smite."
Starwind says, "I like her."
Cosgrave shrieks!
A grey-haired old woman shrugs.
Starwind points at a grey-haired old woman.
Nanna chuckles.
Lavinnia says, "Ah, the deceiver...come to lead us down the path telling us to be faithful. How awful."
Juspera says, "Oh Bloodsnake, you will have to dye your hair red again now."
Deavon chuckles.
Kytaara begins chuckling at Lavinnia.
Bloodsnake says, "oh you are all so easily fooled"
Lavinnia grins.
Lavinnia says, "I have my faith, Bloodsnake."
Tivanwy says, "I know who she's not"
Tivanwy smiles at Bloodsnake.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Or you are so easily lead down the path into faithlessness."
Lavinnia appears less secure.
Lavinnia nods to the old woman.
Bloodsnake asks, "faith in what....a strange old woman who wont tell us who she is?"
Sadryne says, "Bloodsnake, just listen. Temper what you hear with what you know already. You don't have to believe, just Listen."
Lavinnia says, "No, faith in my Niima."
Kytaara says, "an old woman comes to our meeting --saying much the same things as Leya told me herself --I am not deceived --I welcome her words."
Juspera says, "I don't tend to make judgements aloud about the truthfulness in what a person is saying, while I am still in the presence of that person."
Lavinnia says, "This old woman could be her. She's so full of fun."
Deavon smiles at Kytaara.
Tivanwy smiles at Juspera.
Lavinnia smiles at the old woman.
A grey-haired old woman chuckles.
Bloodsnake frowns.
Truekillr rubs his chin thoughtfully.
(Tivanwy pats the woman on her hand)
Titaniia says, "Well, you ain one of them nasty types like Snakehair."
Truekillr shakes his head.
Truekillr sighs.
Tivanwy says, "I like that you came to talk with us"
Sadryne asks, "My my Legs, and you and I thought this would be a short meeting?"
Kytaara says, "Could be, Lavinnia --I'd nae count it out"
Tivanwy smiles at the old woman.
Titaniia nods to Juspera.
Sadryne glances at Starwind.
Lavinnia nods to Tivanwy.
Starwind nods to you.
Lavinnia nods to Kytaara.
Lavinnia says, "I don't."
Sadryne says, "You should Chair more often."
Sadryne grins.
Starwind grins.
A grey-haired old woman says, "I do not come to tell you what to believe."
Starwind says, "Perhaps I will."
A grey-haired old woman says, "You ultimately make that decision for yourself."
Juspera leans forward.
Titaniia says, "hrmm"
Lavinnia nods to the old woman.
A grey-haired old woman says, "I do not come to tell you that this god is right, and that goddess is not."
(Bloodsnake crosses her arms and sits back)
Deavon nods to the old woman.
(Tivanwy tugs the woman's sleeve)
A grey-haired old woman says, "I, of course, have my opinions on that, but it is not my business to direct your mind."
Nanna smirks.
Cosgrave chuckles.
Nanna raises an eyebrow.
Titaniia says, "Tivanwy.. not Th' questions.."
Titaniia's face turns slightly pale.
Tivanwy asks, "Can you answer other questions for me?"
Tivanwy frowns at Titaniia.
Lavinnia nods to Kytaara.
Tivanwy says, "But if I don't ask, I don't learn"
Titaniia furrows her brow.
Truekillr shakes his head.
A grey-haired old woman says, "I come to tell you that faith is not something that should require seeing your deities to have. If that were what faith was, then all would suffer."
Starwind fidgets.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Faith is a belief in something that you cannot see, but know is there."
Deavon nods to the old woman.
Lavinnia nods to the old woman.
Nanna seems to be trying to figure out how to turn an alexandrite Scalu symbol.
Nanna cackles!
Bloodsnake coughs.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Faith should see you through the rough spots when the gods are silent."
Deavon says, "Thank you M'Lady"
Truekillr asks, "And how do we prove to the unbelievers?"
Starwind just touched a delicate alum Andelas symbol.
Lavinnia says, "Like the tides."
Deavon pokes Nanna in the ribs.
Nanna asks, "Suffering is what some want?"
Nanna chuckles.
Tivanwy nods to Lavinnia.
Juspera says, "I do believe one may have faith in something one CAN see as well."
Nanna whistles tunelessly to herself.
Tivanwy says, "And the wind"
Lavinnia smiles at Kytaara.
Deavon says, "By being steadfast in our faith."
A grey-haired old woman says, "Oh, of course, Juspera."
Lavinnia nods to Tivanwy.>
Juspera scratches her head.
Kytaara nods to Deavon.
A grey-haired old woman says, "But that proof of existence should not be mandatory."
Titaniia says, "Faith in this."
A grey-haired old woman says, "Did you know...."
Titaniia just opened a silver spidersilk backpack.
Truekillr says, "That isn't in question wise one."
Titaniia taps a mithril-etched sabre.
Lavinnia raises an eyebrow.
Deavon asks, "Perhaps less demonstrations of acts that are... expectant, and more worship would be a good way to show that?"
Titaniia says, "an' this."
Titaniia taps herself on the chest.
(Tivanwy tugs the woman's sleeve)
A grey-haired old woman asks, "That there are places where most people do not speak directly with their gods in their lifetime?"
Kytaara nods to Deavon.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Just a moment, child."
Lavinnia blinks.
A grey-haired old woman smiles kindly at Tivanwy.
Kytaara says, "as I have oft pointed out at these meets"
Tivanwy smiles at the old woman.
Lavinnia asks, "Never?"
Juspera grins.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Never in their lives."
A grey-haired old woman looks over towards Lavinnia and nods.
Nanna says, "They must be week gods"
Nanna says, "weak"
Lavinnia says, "Shallow existence."
A grey-haired old woman says, "Nay, Nanna...."
Bloodsnake nods to Nanna.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Those gods are the strongest of all."
Starwind says, "Doesn't sound so bad. I've never spoken with Andelas. Ever."
Juspera furrows her brow.
(Titaniia mutters loudly to Tivanwy about questions.)
Nanna smirks.
Deavon nods to Starwind.
Sadryne says, "But I saw you talking to the cat in Pinefar."
Sadryne pokes Starwind in the ribs.
(Tivanwy ignores Titaniia)
Juspera says, "But is it BECAUSE they never speak with their followers, that makes them strong?'"
Starwind says, "I talk to all cats. They are the children of Andelas, as I am."
Bloodsnake says, "Eorgina saved me from death on the condition I become her priestess and do her will"
A grey-haired old woman says, "If a god's followers have faith such that they never have to see those gods, or have a prayer answered (although those gods DO answer prayers)...."
Bloodsnake says, "how can I do her will when I don't know what it is anymore"
Nanna says, "I'm sure they could claim anything, since they obviously don't wish to prove themselves"
Truekillr nods to the old woman.
Lavinnia leans forward.
A grey-haired old woman says, "How strong must that faith be."
Lavinnia nods to the old woman.
Tivanwy says, "Sometimes no answer is the answer to prayer"
Truekillr says, "I have never communed successfully but have been visited a number of times in prayer..."
Tivanwy shrugs.
A grey-haired old woman looks over towards Tivanwy and nods.
Nanna says, "or never have"
Nanna shrugs.
Lavinnia says, "I've never asked for anything but strength in my prayers."
Deavon asks, "I do Leya's will everyday with what guidance I received years ago... why should I need it reaffirmed?"
Truekillr says, "That is why I do not like communing, however when one is in need it would be nice to know they might answer. As in Bloodsnakes situation."
A grey-haired old woman says, "I could go further into apostasy, but I won't bother."
A grey-haired old woman chuckles.
Lavinnia says, "And I allus feel better after talking to Niima."
Titaniia says, "I have been at many communes where Th' spell worked fine, but Th' Arkati didna wish to speak."
Titaniia shrugs.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Perhaps, Bloodsnake...."
Kytaara nods to Deavon.
Kytaara says, "exactly, Sister Deavon"
(Juspera leans over and whispers something to Tivanwy.)
Bloodsnake says, "we of the Circle of the Grey Moon seek to ask what her will is for us...and to see if she is in danger"
A grey-haired old woman says, "She has nothing specific for you to do right now. Or she trusts you enough that she believes you will do her will anyway."
Joshell says, "The strongest faith I believe is one where you never have proof that your faith is correct but you still have it. I have never spoke to Fash'lo'nae he mostly does nae speak to mortals because he has better things do, acquiring more knowledge"
Tivanwy smiles at Juspera.
Tivanwy nods to Juspera.
Truekillr says, "I tend to believe the later"
Bloodsnake asks, "do you speak to Eorgina old woman?"
Truekillr smiles at the old woman.
Juspera whimpers.
A grey-haired old woman looks over towards Joshell and nods.
Kytaara nods to Joshell.
Lavinnia nods to Truekillr.
A grey-haired old woman says, "I speak to a good many people."
Bloodsnake says, "it sounds like you're old friends with her"
A grey-haired old woman chuckles.
Lavinnia asks, "People?"
A grey-haired old woman says, "I speak in a generality, Bloodsnake. But I know this...."
Sadryne says, "I can't imagine sitting to tea with the Lady."
Sadryne feels the blood drain from her face.
(Starwind suddenly wonders what exactly Andelas does all the time...)
Sadryne exclaims, "More sugar? No. Then you die!"
Juspera asks, "I think faith without evidence does not mean that faith is good. I could have the greatest faith in the world in a flying purple rolton... does th at mean I should be greatly respected for my belief?"
Truekillr asks, "Then let me ask this. Perhaps it is childish, but in your logic wise one, if we ARE visited when we ask it does that mean we are weak for even asking?"
Juspera says, "It would mean I was batty."
A grey-haired old woman says, "Were I Eorgina, I would not want to have to manifest to my believers to make them believe I am fine. That does not speak volumes for their faith in me."
Bloodsnake says, "I would think she would be flattered by our concern"
Deavon slaps herself on the forehead.
Deavon says, "Ah... apostasy."
Tivanwy says, "Unless you're interrupting her at something"
A grey-haired old woman says, "I think it means that the gods truly believed my questions were worthwhile."
A grey-haired old woman looks over towards Truekillr and nods.
Truekillr nods to the old woman.
Truekillr says, "Thank you."
A grey-haired old woman asks, "Bloodsnake, when your friends are concerned for you, it is flattering, yes?"
Titaniia scoots her chair back and stands up.
Bloodsnake says, "of course"
A grey-haired old woman asks, "But do you believe yourself capable to be Queen of the World?"
Starwind says, "I doubt, 'Are you there?' constitutes as important in most deities' minds."
Starwind chuckles.
Bloodsnake cocks her head at a grey-haired old woman.
Sadryne says, "Don't ask her that."
Juspera scratches her head.
Titaniia says, "Ma'am...has been fascinating. I think you are a holy woman. Unfortunately, duty calls."
A grey-haired old woman asks, "And do you believe that others should think so?"
Nanna nods to the old woman.
Tivanwy just hugged Titaniia.
Titaniia curtsies to the old woman.
Bloodsnake says, "you're going off track"
A grey-haired old woman says, "It has been an honor, Titaniia."
Titaniia just kissed Tivanwy on the forehead.
Juspera says, "Importance is in the eye of the beholder sometimes."
A grey-haired old woman says, "No, I am not."
Lavinnia just gave Titaniia a smooch.
A grey-haired old woman shakes its head.
Kytaara scoots her chair back and stands up.
Deavon scoots her chair back and stands up.
Bloodsnake says, "I don't seek to be Queen of the World when I just express concern for my Mistress"
A grey-haired old woman says, "What I am saying is that Eorgina does not think as mortals do."
Truekillr nods to Titaniia.
Titaniia says, "an' please excuse Tivanwy's manner.. she is still learning our ways.."
Tivanwy frowns at Titaniia.
Deavon says, "As much as I regret have to leave at this point in the conversation, I too have responsibilities, m'Lady"
Kytaara says, "Yes, Old Mater --My faith is strong enough indeed that I may attend to more worldly concerns with my order."
Deavon curtsies to the old woman.
Kytaara curtsies to the old woman.
Titaniia says, "Dotter, we have responsibilities."
A grey-haired old woman says, "Eorgina likely finds the concerns of mortals to be rather disheartening."
A grey-haired old woman looks over towards Deavon and nods.
Deavon joins Kytaara's group.
A grey-haired old woman says, "An honor, as well."
A grey-haired old woman looks over towards Kytaara and nods.
Bloodsnake says, "then she can tell me that herself"
Nanna nods to the old woman.
Kytaara says, "Join me, Mum."
Tivanwy blinks.
Deavon says, "Thank ye for meeting with us this eve"
A grey-haired old woman asks, "Should she have to?"
Deavon smiles at the old woman.
Titaniia joins Kytaara's group.
A grey-haired old woman says, "I think you are not as faithful as you would like."
Kytaara curtsies.
Kytaara waves.
Lady Kytaara's group just went out.
Sadryne says, "She doesn't have to. It's a courtesy."
Truekillr chuckles.
Bloodsnake says, "I'd rather it come from her than from a strange old woman who I don't trust"
Truekillr clasps his hand over his mouth.
Sadryne says, "We don't have to pray to her, we do it as a courtesy."
Lavinnia glances at Truekillr.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Courtesy and Eorgina in the same sentence...."
Lavinnia giggles.
Sadryne says, "Don't go there matron."
Starwind snickers.
(Tivanwy gazes wide-eyed at Bloodsnake)
The powerful look leaves Truekillr.
(Sadryne shakes her finger and grins widely.)
A grey-haired old woman says, "It is not her nature to be courteous."
A grey-haired old woman shrugs.
A grey-haired old woman says, "That is hardly an insult."
Joshell says, "The women seems to be very knowledgeable and wise of the Arkati."
Juspera asks, "I never put much stock in blind faith... as I said, I could have blind faith in anything I can't see--a flying purple rolton--but would it get me anywhere?"
Lavinnia clasps her hand over her mouth.
Lavinnia pokes Truekillr in the ribs.
Tivanwy says, "I'd never ask the Huntress to show courtesy by demanding her presence"
Nanna says, "If you seek to have a god tell you that, we can not understand them, and can't even fathom a percentage of what they're thinking, a relative of mine had that told to him"
Nanna shrugs.
A grey-haired old woman asks, "Now, Tivanwy...what are your questions?"
Bloodsnake says, "I wont be demanding her presence, simply asking for her will and guidance"
A grey-haired old woman smiles.
Nanna pokes Bloodsnake in the ribs.
Starwind leans against a long table.
Tivanwy asks, "What's a corset?"
Truekillr begins chuckling at Tivanwy.
Sadryne groans.
Lavinnia just tickled Tivanwy.
Tivanwy giggles.
(Juspera glances at Tivanwy and tries to cover up a laugh.)
A grey-haired old woman asks, "A corset?"
Tivanwy nods to the old woman.
A grey-haired old woman says, "That would be something to make your waist tinier and your...err...."
Nanna begins chuckling at Tivanwy.
Sadryne says, "You'll be answering questions her mother won't answer for her."
Nanna shows Tivanwy her buckled leather corset.
Truekillr stares off into space.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Well, your cleavage a bit more plunging."
Sadryne says, "Questions she won't answer for a reason, I see."
Tivanwy blinks.
Juspera shows Tivanwy her imflass mail bodice.
Bloodsnake just tried to pull a gem-encrusted steel girdle.
Tivanwy asks, "And people wear that on purpose?"
A grey-haired old woman says, "As you can see, a number of women find them fashionable."
Truekillr moans.
Nanna nods to Tivanwy.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Some believe you need to suffer for beauty."
Bloodsnake says, "Tivanwy you silly girl"
A grey-haired old woman shrugs.
Tivanwy shakes her head.
Nanna points at a pair of black silk hose.
Lavinnia nods to the old woman.
Nanna points at a sleek black leather halter.
Lavinnia shudders.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Myself, I never held with that."
(Sadryne draws little hourglass figures on her thigh.)
A grey-haired old woman chuckles.
Truekillr says, "And gents too if Joshell's drooling means anything."
Nanna points at some dazzling stiletto-heeled slippers.
Truekillr smiles.
Juspera says, "I like the feeling of being girded."
Truekillr winks at Joshell.
Tivanwy says, "Really weird customs here"
Juspera says, "It's comforting."
Sadryne glances at Juspera.
Joshell chuckles.
Sadryne says, "I never knew."
A grey-haired old woman asks, "Anything else, child?"
A grey-haired old woman smiles.
Sadryne gazes in wonder at your surroundings.
Joshell glances at Truekillr.
Juspera starts chuckling at you!
Bloodsnake asks, "girded? is that a word?"
Juspera nods to Bloodsnake.
Nanna raises an eyebrow in Tivanwy's direction.
Joshell says, "I don't drool at such things. I drool at knowledge"
Truekillr chuckles.
Tivanwy says, "No, unless you'd be willing to tell me about swear words"
A grey-haired old woman traces idle patterns on the table.
Truekillr nods to Joshell.
Lavinnia says, "Wise one, I have a question."
Starwind says, "Bloodsnake. Andelas has naught once visited me, or any other followers as of late, but I do not beg for his presence. It is mildly discouraging, yes, but I perform his will by educating myself with past writings, not from his mouth."
Starwind smiles at Bloodsnake.
Tivanwy looks over at Juspera and shakes her head.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Swear words? I think that, perhaps, you should stand outside the warrior's guild and ask."
Juspera sighs.
A grey-haired old woman winks at Tivanwy.
Bloodsnake says, "I am not begging"
Lavinnia grins.
Cosgrave laughs!
Tivanwy grins.
Tivanwy says, "I'll do that"
Tivanwy nods to the old woman.
Bloodsnake grumbles.
Starwind chuckles.
Juspera says, "I'd never beg for the presence of an Arkati, but someone who is so far beyond mortals that I can't ask them a question isn't someone I want to follow."
Cosgrave says, " ask Luky ... she'll fill you in on the words they use inside the warrior guild"
Sadryne says, "Someone needs to escort Tivanwy home after this. Her mother might get upset."
Tivanwy frowns at you.
Nanna begins chuckling at Juspera.
Cosgrave chuckles.
Juspera says, "I believe accessibility is one of the greatest qualities anyone in a position of power can have."
Tivanwy says, "I don't have a mother, no dryad does"
A grey-haired old woman chuckles.
A grey-haired old woman says, "Tell me, Tivanwy...."
A grey-haired old woman asks, "Why does a dryad follow the Huntress?"
Tivanwy peers quizzically at a grey-haired old woman.
Bloodsnake glances at Tivanwy.
Sadryne says, "Um hm. Okay then, Titaniia might cut off the rest of your hair."
Starwind says, "It's also a nice quality of women's clothing."
Starwind nods to Juspera.
Tivanwy says, "Because the Krolvin killed my kin"
Nanna says, "Well, there are gods that are somewhat predictable Juspera, at least in some of their ways...probably not fully"
Juspera says, "Oh, ah."
Juspera scratches her head.
Joshell says, "Maybe Eorgina is busy and concerned with other things and does not have the time to grace you with her presence ? As I've stated before Fash'lo'nae rarely shows him self to mortals or meddles in mortal affairs because he is too busy gathering knowledge"
Tivanwy says, "They cut down our grove for their ships"
Juspera says, "Yes, I figure the Arkati come in all shapes and flavors, ah."
Tivanwy says, "Salted the earth afterwards"
Bloodsnake says, "yes but how would I know that if I don't ask Joshell"
Nanna says, "but lots, like my god, his unpredictability, is part of his prediciabilty"
Nanna cackles!
Lavinnia says, "Wise one, that's like asking why a tree-dweller follows one from the sea."
Sadryne says, "Um, Koar..tastes like chicken."
Sadryne smacks her lips.
Juspera coughs.
Sadryne ducks her head.
Tivanwy says, "I was the only one left"
Starwind peers quizzically at you.
Bloodsnake smiles at you.
A grey-haired old woman rubs Tivanwy's shoulder gently.
A grey-haired old woman says, "I am sorry to hear that, child."
Truekillr rubs a gleaming gold Lorminstra symbol trimmed with glistening onyx and engraved with the scene of an ethereal spirit passing through a mighty ebon gate.
Starwind glances at a delicate alum Andelas symbol.
Starwind glances at Truekillr.
Tivanwy says, "To save my people, I gave myself over to the Huntress. She'd keep me from being consumed by revenge"
Starwind mutters under her breath.
Truekillr shows Starwind his Lorminstra figurine.
A grey-haired old woman says, "When your quest for revenge is at an end, I hope you will find a more peaceful way. Until then, I wish you a safe walk, and good hunting."
Truekillr just gave a chained Lorminstra figurine a smooch.
Starwind cowers away from Truekillr!
Tivanwy smiles at the old woman.
Starwind says, "Ugh, the Goddess of Wealth."
Tivanwy nods to the old woman.
Truekillr smirks.
A grey-haired old woman says, "And now, if you will excuse me, I should be off."
A grey-haired old woman stands up.
Sadryne says, "I didn't know Lorminstra like that sort of..um, nevermind."

Tivanwy scoots her chair back and stands up.
A grey-haired old woman smiles.
Bloodsnake frowns.
A grey-haired old woman brushes a hand through her hair, which seems to have darkened save a white lock at her temple. With that, she smiles and walks from the room. Upon closer inspection, the idle patterns she was tracing appear as five conjoined circles.
A grey-haired old woman just went out.
Joshell asks, "You wont Bloodsnake, but If she does not answer your commune. Will that prove she has been destroyed ?"
Truekillr smirks.
Bloodsnake says, "nay"
Juspera furrows her brow.
Lavinnia blinks.
Tivanwy gasps.
Nanna raises an eyebrow.
Sadryne says, "Lumnis."
Truekillr says, "Lumnis."
Starwind snorts at Bloodsnake.
Bloodsnake says, "I ask for her will as well"
Truekillr exclaims, "I knew it!"
Tivanwy laughs!
Starwind says, "Lumnis."
Truekillr nods.
Starwind grins.
Juspera blinks.
Lavinnia grins.
Bloodsnake exclaims, "bah I have house duties!"
Juspera says, "I'm so confused."

Lavinnia rubs Bloodsnake gently.
Bloodsnake says, "Sadryne I'll find you later"
Nanna chuckles.
Sadryne says, "No wonder she spoke against the Lady."
Sadryne nods to Bloodsnake.
Lady Bloodsnake just went out.
Starwind says, "Down girl."
Starwind pokes you in the ribs.
Truekillr says, "I KNEW it."
Truekillr sighs.
Tivanwy smiles at Truekillr.
Truekillr shakes his head.
Lavinnia says, "I knew it was her or Leya."
Truekillr exclaims, "so many more valid questions could have been asked!"
Juspera says, "I had no clue."
Starwind says, "Yeah, yeah. But still."
Juspera says, "But then, I am clueless in general."
Lavinnia rubs Truekillr gently.
Starwind asks, "Well, does anyone have any more business?"
Starwind pulls out a chair and plops herself down at the table.
Tivanwy says, "Maybe she felt this was more important"
Lavinnia rubs Juspera gently.
Tivanwy smiles at Truekillr.
Nanna begins chuckling at Truekillr.
Juspera chuckles.
Juspera pulls out a chair and plops herself down at the table.
Truekillr nods to Tivanwy.
Truekillr asks, "Who is to question her knowledge?"
Nanna says, "Well, looks like this place just thinned out"
(Starwind thumps the table.)
Truekillr says, "Perhaps Fash'lo'nae but not us."
Nanna asks, "Fash'lo'nae?"
Nanna chuckles.
Lavinnia grins.
Truekillr smiles peacefully.
Lavinnia grins.
Truekillr says, "I am at more of a peace with my faith."
Truekillr nods.
Sadryne says, "No new business I guess."
Tivanwy smiles at Truekillr.
Joshell says, "He doesn't question her knowledge they just have differing views on how to acquire it"
Nanna just tickled Truekillr.
Lavinnia says, "I'm so glad, hon."
Nanna rubs a crystal amulet.
Nanna gets an odd look on her face.
As Nanna pulls on her crystal amulet, her expression grows darker.
Nanna says, "I have some business"
Truekillr kisses Lavinnia. He doesn't seem to want to stop.

Lady Nanna just went out.
Juspera asks, "I'm just all shivery... that was Lumnis, eh?"
Truekillr nods to Juspera.
Juspera bounces up and down in her chair, doing a perfect imitation of a child impatiently waiting for her food.
Starwind nods to Juspera.
Tivanwy nods to Juspera.
Juspera exclaims, "That's so exciting!!"
Starwind says, "I feel a bit better about things, now."
Sadryne says, "Shorter than I expected."
Truekillr smiles.
Truekillr nods to Juspera.
Lavinnia nods to Juspera.
Tivanwy starts chuckling at Sadryne!
Lavinnia beams happily at Juspera!
Juspera says, "I am disappointed I missed most of her visit."
Truekillr says, "She had so many answers at her fingertip she just had to know..."
Truekillr gestures and utters a phrase of magic.
Juspera says, "But glad I caught part."
Truekillr gestures into the air.
Truekillr gets a frustrated look on his face.
