TorTure

  • The* Order still new to the scene, and the pieces have
  • been* put into play. Cemoch feels feisty, and he makes a
  • new* attempt, bringing an innocent Avisa to be tortured.

Now that the Order has been around for awhile, this log has finally been released.

  • Seen* through the eyes of Avisa.
(Comments may be slightly biased. Ahem.)

*//* *Note:* *This* *log* *has* *been* *severely* *edited* *for* *content.*

The figure of Cemoch appears in a shadow before your eyes and speaks to
you:

     On a side note... missed me?

Then the figure fades away.


You concentrate upon your ring and send Cemoch this tell: Ahh. It's hard to say.
It's been awhile since I've been graced with your company. Perhaps I'm
forgetting how nice you are. Or perhaps I'm jealous? Hmm. You tell me.
But I'm sure you missed me, right? Hence the message?


The figure of Cemoch appears in a shadow before your eyes and speaks to
you:

     Sure. The debates with Gojin and Mathias are always so wordless.

Then the figure fades away.


You concentrate upon your ring and send Cemoch this tell: So I'm more
interesting to talk to then a guy? Or even two guys? -whistles- What an
accomplishment. You leave, to continue to talk to me? Scared that you've
begun balding already?


>The figure of Cemoch appears in a shadow before your eyes and speaks to
you:

     You are indeed more entertaining. Was that now a compliment? Damn
     it! Anyway, I'm quite bored and those orcs fail to keep me decent
     company.

Then the figure fades away.


You concentrate upon your ring and send Cemoch this tell: Perhaps one of
them can carry you? I know that isn't an invitation, of course. We do not
hunt together, remember? But going from trolls to people to orcs? Well. Yes.
I'm sure you are not entertained. I'm close by, but not -that-
close. Understandable, no?


>The figure of Cemoch appears in a shadow before your eyes and speaks to
you:

     Invitation? You wouldn't want me watch killing the troll anyway.
     Would be too violent of a picture for a girl.

Then the figure fades away.


>You concentrate upon your ring and send Cemoch this tell: Haven't I already
watched you killing a troll? Don't you feel that heads impaled onto poles
would be even more violent than the actual killing? It would be a lesson in
self-defence, even. And surely even young woman needs that. It's a good
thing that I'm not a little girl, but as far as I know, I'm not a damn druid
either, dear.


>The figure of Cemoch appears in a shadow before your eyes and speaks to
you:

     In which case you'll get my permission to watch. But I won't drag
     you outside should you faint.

Then the figure fades away.

*//* *And* *so* *they* *meet*...

 You are in an evergreen forest nestled in a secluded valley. A tall
 mountain to the west and a range of hills to the east serve as buffers
 against the worst of the elements in this northern climate, making the
 vegetation here lush and healthy. Trees surround you, and a thick carpet of
 pine needles cushions your feet. The air is crisp and cool, and light
 filters through the branches to dapple the ground around you, making quite
 a pretty sight. A paved road leads through the forest to the south and
 north and a path starts to the east. Next to the road rests a big rock with
 an inscription.
There are eight obvious exits: north[r], northeast, east[r], southeast,
south[r], southwest, west, northwest.
Bimok is resting here.

Cemoch walks in from west.

Bimok sighs.
Bimok mentions in Common: I wish someone could help me...
Omen walks in from north.
Omen walks out south.

Cemoch grins.

You grin amusedly at Cemoch.

>Cemoch says in Common: too late

>You unwield the dagger.
You unwield the rapier.

>You snap your fingers.

>Cemoch says in Common: but it was surely better anyway

You ask Cemoch in Common: Oh? How so?

Cemoch says in Common: Couldn't afford the time to care for someone
unconscious.

You peer intently at Cemoch.
>Hmmmmm.
>You ask Cemoch in Common: And why not?

>Cemoch says in Common: The troll would keep me busy.

You ask Cemoch in Common: You can't guard even a small girl?
>Avisa clicks her tongue.

>Cemoch says in Common: Not really, no.
Cemoch says in Common: I'd be a bad father, I know.
Cemoch sighs slightly.

You tell Cemoch in Common: That's too bad. You would be forced to kill it
quicker, then.
>You tell Cemoch in Common: Ahh. You're far too old to be a father anyway, at
this point.
>You smile sweetly at Cemoch.

>Cemoch says in Common: Could be.
Cemoch smiles amusedly.

You tell Cemoch in Common: Ahh. And I am surely glad that you're not
my father.
>You tell Cemoch in Common: But people can only protect ones from so
much.

>Cemoch says in Common: Exactly.

You tell Cemoch in Common: Eventually there will be things to witness and
things to find. And that is when you have to let your children go.
>Avisa nods sagely.

>Cemoch says in Common: I think you're too young for that kind of wisdom.

You tell Cemoch in Common: You don't seem as talkative as you usually are.
>Hmmmmm.

*//* *First* *Lesson:* *Go* *by* *your* *natural* *intuition..*

>Cemoch says in Common: Me?
Cemoch ponders the situation.

You ask Cemoch in Common: Would you say that if I had lied about my age?

>Cemoch says in Common: Maybe I'm a bit anti-social today.

Avisa raises her eyebrow delicately.

You ask Cemoch in Common: Surely, I no longer count as just another 'social
situation', do I? I wouldn't quite call this a gathering.

>Cemoch says in Common: you know, all that fighting and such
Cemoch is suddenly surrounded with an aura of pure life force. He looks
stronger and healthier now.

You smile sweetly at Cemoch.
>You tell Cemoch in Common: Ahh. But fighting can be quite social, don't you
think?

>Cemoch says in Common: Yes. And merry. Ask Gojin.

You tell Cemoch in Common: When you're fighting two, and another five on
your side. Well, I'd say that -would- be a gathering.

>Cemoch says in Common: I'd even call it a party.

You tell Cemoch in Common: I really hope that if for some reason, whether it
just be some twisted sadistic urge or with reason or some very wrong fatherly
instinct, if you kill me, you'll do it alone.

Cemoch says in Common: I see no reason to kill you.
Cemoch says in Common: I already told you that.

You tell Cemoch in Common: Ahh. You're not even granting me the leisure
of acknowledging my scenario.

>Cemoch says in Common: Scenario? You grow old, have children, die.

You tell Cemoch in Common: I don't even get a.. 'yes, you will die by my
blade' or something.
>Avisa shifts her eyes.
>You grin teasingly.
>You ask Cemoch in Common: Have children??

>Cemoch shrugs.
Cemoch says in Common: some fluffy halfelf children probably.

You tell Cemoch in Common: That seems a little mundane. What is your
scenario like then, if that is mine?
>Avisa eyes Cemoch appraisingly.

>Cemoch goes hmmmm.
Cemoch says in Common: Be a humble, respected man.

You tell Cemoch in Common: That is a goal. Not a scenario.

>Cemoch goes hmmmm.

You tell Cemoch in Common: And you still say 'man' after all of that. Will
you still be one?

>Cemoch says in Common: We'll see.
Cemoch says in Common: Gotta comment a case though.

You stand up.

>Cemoch walks out north.

Avisa brushes herself off.

*//* *Ahh.* *More* *messages.* *Situation* *Change.* *Etc.*

>You concentrate upon your ring and send Cemoch this tell: Ahh. What a mess.
You concentrate upon your ring and send Cemoch this tell: Not even a
goodbye? I certainly feel crushed. A shame. Indeed.


The figure of Cemoch appears in a shadow before your eyes and speaks to
you:

     I'm sure you're heartbroken. But I'm also sure you could always
     find me if you wanted to, after all, we always bump into each
     other it seems.

Then the figure fades away.


You concentrate upon your ring and send Cemoch this tell: But I thought the
tower wouldn't be a good place for me?


The figure of Cemoch appears in a shadow before your eyes and speaks to
you:

     You disappoint me. Who said I'm at the tower?

Then the figure fades away.


>You concentrate upon your ring and send Cemoch this tell: Well, what do I
look like? A Ranger? Please.


The figure of Cemoch appears in a shadow before your eyes and speaks to
you:

     -sigh- And I thought you're someone of extraordinary
     capabilities.

Then the figure fades away.

The figure of Cemoch appears in a shadow before your eyes and speaks to
you:

     I see. But when I invited you the first time, you didn't come, so
     why bother? I hope you're at least a better skinner than tracker.
     I'd hate not to get my warn mole furs you promised me.

Then the figure fades away.


*//* *Walking*.. *What* *a* *foolish girl.* *Lesson* *Two*: *Men* *are* *EVIL.*

 You are inside a small tunnel. A few light reaches down from the entrance.
 This tunnel was obviously dug into the earth by brute force. The walls and
 the ceiling are covered with roots, as is the ground. The air gets more
 humid here, and you have the feeling its becoming warmer with every step
 you do. The tunnel continues into the darkness.
There are two obvious exits:
northdown, southup.
A huge heap of pieces of cavemole meat, twelve pieces of cavemole meat and a
decayed remains of a small sandbrown male mole.
Cemoch.
>You find:
 Very old, very slight and very bloody tracks of a human leading southup,
 coming from northdown.

The decayed remains of a small sandbrown male mole rapidly decays.

Hmmmmm.
You peer intently.

>The gruesome masked human walks in from southup.
Shinji graciously enters from southup.

The gruesome masked human guards the southup exit.
The gruesome masked human stinks of rot and decay.
Shinji guards the northdown exit.
Cemoch guards the southup exit.

*//* *Lesson* *Three*: *Never* *stand* *unarmed* *and* *aggressive* *with* *a* *known* *killer*.

Cemoch attacks you.

Cemoch thrusts his triple-bladed steel corseque at your right hand, but you
dodge his attack with a swift move of your body.

Cemoch swings his long black steel blade at your left foot, slices
through your black leather boots and hurts you severely, without using
lethal force.

Cemoch charges forward and rams his armoured elbow and shoulder with
force into your torso.
The hit lifts you off your feet and makes you fall down to the ground.

The gruesome masked human attacks you!
The gruesome masked human takes a long ornamented bone spear from the
backpack.
The gruesome masked human wields a spear in his right hand and left hand.

You sit up.

*//* *Yes,* *Yes.* *Flickup* *would've* *been* *more* *effective.* *But* *there* *were* *higher*
*priorities* *on* *the* *list.*

The gruesome masked human thrusts his long ornamented bone spear at
your neck, pierces through your silver necklace and hurts you critically,
without using lethal force.

Cemoch swings his triple-bladed steel corseque at your right leg, crashes
against your padded tunic and hurts you slightly, without using lethal
force.

Cemoch thrusts his long black steel blade at your left foot, penetrates
your black leather boots and hurts you critically, without using lethal
force.

You come to your feet.

>Shinji pulls his leg up in front of himself, then snaps the foot
forcefully to the side and hits your right arm.
But your armour absorbs all the damage.

Shinji thrusts his right fist at your torso, pierces through your
studded leather jacket and hurts you slightly, without using lethal
force.

>The gruesome masked human balances his spear and thrusts it quickly
towards you. He impales your scalp and hurts you slightly.

Shinji thrusts his left fist at your torso, but your studded leather jacket
deflects all damage.
>
You are ready to fight again.

Cemoch smashes his triple-bladed steel corseque at your right hand,
cleaves through your pair of gauntlets and hurts you severely, without
using lethal force.

>The gruesome masked human uses a gap in your defense and smashes his
armoured head into your face.

No way! Cemoch blocks that exit!
>Damned! Your enemy is fast and blocks your way.
Try again!

>Shinji pushes your right arm.
You succeed to keep your balance.
You are still on your feet.

>Cemoch charges forward and rams his armoured elbow and shoulder with force
into your torso.
The hit lifts you off your feet and makes you fall down to the ground.
You become unconscious.

But you are unconscious.
>But you are unconscious.

You wake up.

 You are inside a small tunnel. A few light reaches down from the entrance.
 This tunnel was obviously dug into the earth by brute force. The walls and
 the ceiling are covered with roots, as is the ground. The air gets more
 humid here, and you have the feeling its becoming warmer with every step

Shinji blocks the exits northdown.
Cemoch blocks the exits southup.
The gruesome masked human blocks the exits southup.
There are two obvious exits: northdown, southup.
A huge heap of pieces of cavemole meat and twelve pieces of cavemole meat.
Cemoch, Shinji and a gruesome masked human.

>Shinji looks at you.

You remark softly in Common: Ouch.

>Shinji smirks.

You can't do that because you are magically shackled.
>
>Shinji spits on you!

Cemoch joins the gruesome masked human's team.

The gruesome masked human nods.

You ask in Common: Can someone at leas.. ugh.

>The gruesome masked human walks out southup.
Shinji graciously leaves southup.
Cemoch walks out southup.
The gruesome masked human stinks of rot and decay.

>The gruesome masked human spreads his arms and a rift appears in front
of him.

You can't do that because you are magically shackled.

>The gruesome masked human walks out into the smoking unholy glowing rift.
Shinji graciously leaves into the smoking unholy glowing rift.
Cemoch walks out into the smoking unholy glowing rift.
The gruesome masked human stinks of rot and decay.

 Everything around you seems to be warped and twisted. Pillars, consisting
 of quivering rock and slime, seem to be filled with unholy life. Bodies of
 trapped souls are melted into the hellish ground, their faces open-mouthed
 and screaming in silent agony. The sky is enlightened by a sickening green
 light and the constant smell of sulphur fills the nearly nauxious air.
 Right in the middle of air a red slash tears it apart.
There are five obvious exits: slash, north, northeast, south, southwest.
A smoking unholy glowing rift.

Cemoch, Shinji and a gruesome masked human.

>Cemoch says in Common: Careful with the cold Jezz.

Avisa grimaces.

> You hear the clicking noise of claws on stone.

The gruesome masked human ponders the situation.
The gruesome masked human looks at you.
>The gruesome masked human tries to look thoughtful.

>Shinji looks at you.

Cemoch nods slightly.

>The gruesome masked human .oO( would be nice to leave her die
from coldness... ).

You remark softly in Common: Well.. that was pleasant.

>Shinji whistles appreciatively.

>The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: let's rest here then

Shinji gets a shadowy mithril rapier from you.
Shinji looks at the rapier.

The gruesome masked human sits down to rest a while.

Cemoch says in Common: It was unavoidable I fear, Avisa.

You ask in Common: Why so?

>Cemoch says in Common: I will explain later.

You remark softly in Common: Mh.

>Avisa grimaces.
>You are physically at deaths door and mentally slightly degraded.
You are extremely alert.

>Cemoch says in Common: Patience.

Shinji wields a rapier in his right hand.

The gruesome masked human stares at you emotionless.

You remark softly in Common: Rather painful.

>Shinji looks at the rapier.
Shinji unwields a rapier.
Shinji gives you a shadowy mithril rapier.
Shinji gets a slender mithril dagger from you.

You can't do that because you are magically shackled.
>Cemoch asks the gruesome masked human in Common: drain to her?

Shinji looks at you.
>Shinji looks at the dagger.

Cemoch says in Common: Leave her things on her body.

*//* *Isn't* *it* *obvious* *who's* *running* *the* *show* *here?*

The gruesome masked human starts to chant a prayer and makes some strange gestures.
>The gruesome masked human ponders the situation.

Shinji gives you a slender mithril dagger.

>The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: wasting HIS power
in this creature ....
The gruesome masked human looks at Shinji.

You sigh gently.

>The gruesome masked human starts to chant a prayer and makes some strange gestures.

>Cemoch says in Common: Well, it serves a greater purpose, Jezz.

>Avisa grimaces.

>The gruesome masked human chants a prayer and points at the gruesome masked
human. A thin stream of darkness spreads forth from his finger, connecting
the gruesome masked human with you.
You feel the gruesome masked human's lifeforce flowing into your body!

You ask Cemoch in Common: So you'll tell me lat.. urgh.. er?

>The gruesome masked human nods to Shinji.

>You sigh.

>The gruesome masked human looks at you.

Shinji starts to chant a prayer and makes some strange gestures.

You tell Cemoch in Common: Well, it was fun while it lasted.
>You tell Cemoch in Common: Thanks.

>The gruesome masked human peers angrily.

Shinji starts to chant a prayer and makes some strange gestures.

The gruesome masked human starts to chant a prayer and makes some strange gestures.

You tell Cemoch in Common: I knew I shouldn't have played around, but well.
Sometimes you have to.

>Shinji chants a prayer and points at Shinji. A thin stream of darkness
spreads forth from his finger, connecting Shinji with you.
You feel Shinji's lifeforce flowing into your body!

You smirk.

>The gruesome masked human looks slash.

You remark softly in Common: I can't do much else here..

Cemoch tells you in Common: Like trying to flee. I'd take it personal.

The gruesome masked human stinks of rot and decay.

You sigh softly.

*//* *Walking..*

> The houses here stand close to each other, and just about every building
has two or three floors. Each of the floors covers a larger area than the
one below, making the turns and crossings very narrow. The road is made of
irregular cobblestones and is full with filth and excrements, which literally
smell like shit.
This is the central marketplace of Asador. Here a wooden large
cross has been erected in the center of the marketplace. A small chapel lies to
the east and two roads lead further into the city. Near the center of the
marketplace there is an old worn well.
There are six obvious exits: northup, northeast[r], east, southeast[r],
south, west[r].
Cemoch, Shinji, a filthy worn male human is resting here and a gruesome masked human.

The magic shackles around your neck vanish.
The gruesome masked human shackles you to the cross, fixed with nails.

Cemoch nods.

>Avisa grimaces.

>A crow takes off into the air, flapping its wings fast.

>The gruesome masked human walks around the cross, staring at you like a beast
with his prey.

Avisa raises her eyebrow delicately.
>You ask in Common: So I've finally become a human sacrifice, eh?

>Shinji smirks.

The gruesome masked human grins at Cemoch.

You smirk.

>Shinji looks at you.

Cemoch sits down to rest a while.

The gruesome masked human tells you in Common: You'd wish.

Shinji looks at the cross.

Cemoch says in Common: No, we just like to talk.

You remark softly in Common: Damn. I probably would wish it.

>The gruesome masked human smirks.

You remark softly in Common: Rather forceful way to talk, don't you think?
>You remark softly in Common: Surely, I've talked to you on -all- other
occasions, yes?

>The gruesome masked human leans against the wall of a house and crosses his
arms.
The gruesome masked human sits down to rest a while.

Cemoch says in Common: For one thing, we know about your nice communication
gadget.

Shinji asks in Common: Maybe she should hear a sermon of the Lord?

>Cemoch says in Common: If you use it, I'd be quite displeased.

*//* *Use* *it?* *Never.*

The gruesome masked human shakes his head in disagreement to Shinji.

Cemoch tells you in Common: Secondly, there are a couple of things to be
discussed.

You tell Shinji in Common: I've asked Jezz to let me in the past. He never has.

>Shinji grins.
Shinji sits down to rest a while.

You sigh softly.

The gruesome masked human grins.

Cemoch tells you in Common: Jezz approached you with some request, remember?

You tell Cemoch in Common: Well, obviously I'm listening.
>You smile sweetly at Cemoch.

Cemoch is a lean philosophical male human.
The skin on the back of his neck is covered with the tattoo of a crowned
skull.
He has scars on his left leg, right leg, nose, right hand, forehead,
left cheek and right cheek.
He has red eyes.
He has long white hair and a very short white beard.
He is tall and lean for a human.
He looks handsome.
He is in good shape.
He is extremely alert.
He is wearing a dark rune-covered ring, a gemmed golden ring and a
pitch-black robe.
He is resting.

Gruesome masked human is resting here.
His blood-red eyes and long straight white hair, as well as his pale skin,
tell you that this human is albino. Some elven features like slightly
pointed ears and a thin, graceful body complete the image of this
evil-looking cleric.
He has scars on his left leg, right leg, nose, left arm, right arm,
left hand, right hand, forehead, left cheek and right cheek.
He is tall and lean for a human.
He looks handsome.
He is not in a good shape.
He is extremely alert.
His bluish looking skin starts to peel.
He is wearing a heavily-ornamented midnight-black robe, a large leather
backpack, a left bone boot and a right bone boot.
He is resting.

>You nod to Cemoch.
>You remark softly in Common: The story didn't fit.

>The gruesome masked human chuckles.

You remark softly in Common: Well.. it didn't.

>Cemoch tells you in Common: Well, Shadowca did the same with <EDIT> later.
<EDIT>, though, knew a couple of details he shouldn't have.

>Avisa tilts her head curiously.
>You can't do that because you are shackled.

>Cemoch tells you in Common: Asked about this, he said he stood hidden
next to you and Jezz.

The gruesome masked human grins at Cemoch.

Cemoch tells you in Common: Which is quite unlikely.

Avisa raises her eyebrow delicately.

>Cemoch asks the gruesome masked human in Common: right?

The gruesome masked human tells you in Common: Specially when I took you to
the hellrift... to avoid that chance.

The gruesome masked human smirks.

>Cemoch tells you in Common: Asked about where <EDIT> eavesdropped on you,
he couldn't tell where.

Avisa blinks in surprise.
>You remark softly in Common: Um..

>Cemoch tells you in Common: Strange, no?

>Shinji tells Cemoch in Common: Quite strange, indeed.

>You sigh.
>You remark softly in Common: Yeah. Real fawkin' odd.
>You try to look thoughtful.

>Cemoch nods solemnly.
Cemoch says in Common: It gets odder, though.

You tell Cemoch in Common: I'm listening, old man.
>Cemoch says in Common: Now assuming he really did listen to your
conversation, that would make it still only two people who knew this plan.

>Cemoch says in Common: Now to my suprise, a scaly friend of mine told me
about a conversation between a darkelf and Xexo.

Cemoch says in Common: This darkelf was as far as I know <EDIT>.
Cemoch smiles amusedly.

The gruesome masked human slightly ponders the situation.

Shinji murmurs in Common: He's quite far from a darkelf now.

Cemoch says in Common: Which makes me wonder, how the hell could he know?
Cemoch smiles sweetly.

Shinji spits on the ground.

Cemoch tells you in Common: Let's go on a bit more, sweetie.

The gruesome masked human lifts your head gently and looks at her face
closely.
The gruesome masked human goes hmmmm.
The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: nice eyes

Cemoch tells you in Common: After <EDIT-EDIT-EDIT>.

*//* *Same* *sort* *of* *deal.* *Information* *that* *doesn't* *need* *to* *be* *known.* *;)*

Avisa turns her head away.

The gruesome masked human draws an ornamented bone dagger from his scabbard
and twirls it in his hands.

Avisa gives the gruesome masked human a sideways glance.

>Cemoch is suddenly surrounded with an aura of pure life force. He looks
stronger and healthier now.

You ask Cemoch in Common: What does this have to do with me?

>Cemoch says in Common: Now, if we add all those things up, things which
are odd and strange, and add it to the fact that Shadowca told me <EDIT>'s
biography, it shows me a certain picture. And I don't like it.

The gruesome masked human comes closer to Shinji and mumbles him: We could
juggle with her eyes after this.
The gruesome masked human looks at you.

Shinji goes hmmmm.
Shinji nods slowly.

Cemoch says in Common: Now, we can do two things:

You ask Cemoch in Common: What picture is that? And I do think that you're
putting me together with certain things that aren't fair. But you will do
what you must, no?

>Shinji studies you carefully.

You tell Cemoch in Common: That is what leaders do, right? Make decisions?

>Cemoch says in Common: One, you tell me the truth.
Cemoch says in Common: Or two, we will make you tell it.
>Cemoch wields a bone dagger in his left hand.

Avisa raises her eyebrow delicately.

>The gruesome masked human looks at Cemoch.

>You ask in Common: What truth?

>Shinji looks at Cemoch.

The gruesome masked human smirks.

Cemoch says in Common: We know if you lie. Just start talking from the
beginning.

The gruesome masked human stares at you seriously.

>Shinji looks at your fingers slowly.

Avisa furrows her brow.
>You ask in Common: What beginning?

>The gruesome masked human tells you in Common: C'mon, talking has always
been your best.

Avisa gives Shinji a sideways glance.

>Shinji asks you in Common: Would you miss your fingers?

You tell Shinji in Common: Do you remember me?

>Shinji shrugs.

Cemoch tells you in Common: Like for example who you told about your and Jezz
conversation.

Shinji murmurs in Common: Humans all look alike to me.

You tell Shinji in Common: You cast holyword on me when I was very very young.

>The gruesome masked human unwields a dagger.
With an elegant movement, The gruesome masked human sheathes an ornamented
bone dagger in his scabbard.
The gruesome masked human starts to chant a prayer and makes some strange gestures.

You tell Shinji in Common: I still hate you.

>Shinji throws his head back and cackles with glee!

*//* *Yeah.* *He* *laughs* *now.* *Unfortunately,* *a* *later* *fight* *isn't* *in* *this* *log.*

You smile sweetly at Shinji.

Cemoch tells the gruesome masked human in Common: Sure.

The gruesome masked human starts to chant a prayer and makes some strange gestures.

The gruesome masked human stands up.

Cemoch tells Shinji in Common: Please be quiet for a moment.
Cemoch asks you in Common: So?

*//* *Hehehe.*

You tell Cemoch in Common: I have no idea what you're talking about. I just
found out about the <EDIT> thing, from you and <EDIT>. I didn't even know
that <EDIT> spoke with Shadowca.

>Cemoch sighs sadly.

You sigh.

>Cemoch says in Common: Wrong answer.

You tell Cemoch in Common: I did have fun with you, though.
>Cemoch pierces the dagger into your left leg, slightly twisting it.

Avisa grimaces darkly, gritting her teeth.
>You spit on the ground.
>You remark softly in Common: Fuckin' evil bastard. Just kill me, eh?

>Cemoch says in Common: Again: Who did you talk to about it?

Shinji looks excited.

You growl.
>You tell Cemoch in Common: I don't think you quite understand, dammit.
You're blaming me for things that I -didn't- do. I had -no idea- about
-any- of this.

Shinji looks at you.

Cemoch looks at you with an expression of honest pity.

You sadly shake your head in disagreement.

>The gruesome masked human sits down to rest a while.

Cemoch walks out northup.

Shinji smiles.

The gruesome masked human tells Shinji in Common: Aww... c'mon, start with your
work.

Shinji paces around a bit, slowly.

You say quietly in Common: I liked him.
>You say quietly in Common: Dammit.
>You say quietly in Common: You two had to get involved.

>Shinji punches you swiftly in the stomach.

The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: butcher her alive

Avisa grimaces.

>The gruesome masked human smirks.

You tell Shinji in Common: That's all you got?
>You spit on Shinji.
>Shinji tells you in Common: You do not speak unless I ask you a question.

The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: but slowly... I want
this to last for a week if possible

Shinji punches you again.

You spit on the ground.

>The gruesome masked human chuckles.

You study Shinji carefully.
He is physically feeling very well and mentally in full vigour.
He is extremely alert.
He is a bit stronger than you are.
He is about as dexterous as you are.
He is much more agile than you are.
He is about as healthy as you are.
He looks very young for a darkelf.
You know he will be tough if you fight him.
You know his weight is 68 kg, his volume is about 190 liters and his
height is about 188 cm.

You tell Shinji in Common: Belfala hits harder than you.

>The gruesome masked human asks in Common: What is what a woman hates more?
The gruesome masked human ponders the situation.

Shinji smirks.

The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: hmmmmm maybe her beauty?

Shinji asks you in Common: You want this to end, yes?

Avisa grimaces darkly.

>The gruesome masked human tells Shinji in Common: Cut some flesh from her face.

Shinji nods to the gruesome masked human.

The gruesome masked human starts to chant a prayer and makes some strange gestures.

Shinji tells you in Common: I asked you a question, wench.
Shinji punches you again.

Avisa presses her head back firmly against the cross.
>You tell Shinji in Common: I wish to die. Yes.

>Shinji murmurs in Common: Good.
Shinji murmurs in Common: Now, right to the chase.

You're now speaking in Magik.

>Shinji slowly ponders the situation.

You say quietly in Magik: Fine. I'll talk. You just won't know what i'm
saying.
>You laugh insanely.

>The gruesome masked human starts to chant a prayer and makes some strange gestures.

Shinji punches you again.
Shinji tells you in Common: Common, please.

The gruesome masked human goes hmmmm.

You amusedly shake your head in disagreement.
>You laugh.

>The gruesome masked human stands up.
The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: let me do this
The gruesome masked human draws an ornamented bone dagger from his scabbard
and twirls it in his hands.

Shinji shakes his head in disagreement to the gruesome masked human.
>Shinji tells the gruesome masked human in Common: There is a method to my
madness.

You say quietly in Magik: Betraying your master?
>You say quietly in Magik: Tsk, Tsk.

>The gruesome masked human holds your head.

You're now speaking in Common.
>The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: just some cuts...
The gruesome masked human goes hmmmm.

You say quietly in Common: I'm speaking common.. I'm speaking common...

>Shinji murmurs in Common: Fine.
Shinji smiles.

The gruesome masked human does a cut on your check.

Shinji shakes his head in disagreement to the gruesome masked human.

Avisa grimaces darkly, turning her head forcefully to the side.
>Avisa emits something like a low whimper.

*//* *Torture* *Lessons* *101* -- *From* *the* *slave* *to* *the* *Master.* *:P*

>Shinji murmurs in Common: No no, hold the blade more to the side, to scar better

The gruesome masked human holds your head harder, and keeps the cut.

The gruesome masked human goes hmmmm.
The gruesome masked human nods to Shinji.

Avisa closes her eyes tightly, her breathing irregular.

>Cemoch walks in from northup.

The filthy worn male human tells Cemoch in Common: Please give me a coin.

The gruesome masked human shifts his eyes, finishing the cut.

Shinji tells you in Common: You can make this stop, just tell us what we want
to know.

Cemoch gets pale.

The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: Ahhh...
The gruesome masked human asks Cemoch in Common: Hungry?

Cemoch says in Common: hold on a second
Cemoch looks at you.

Avisa releases a slight whimper.

>Cemoch looks disgusted.

The gruesome masked human looks at your desfigurated face.
The gruesome masked human smiles.
The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: much prettier right now

Shinji shaves off your eyebrows, making sure to cut the roots.

Avisa stares at the ground defeatedly.

>Shinji murmurs in Common: Not many men like an eyebrow-less lady.

*//* *Hehe.*

Two hooded warriors pass by, knocking a beggar into the dirt in their rush.

Cemoch asks you in Common: Ready to talk now? It might not be irreparable
yet.

Avisa bites down viciously into her lip.

>Cemoch gives a bottle of beer to a gruesome masked human.

Avisa refuses to look up at Cemoch.

>Cemoch gives a bottle of beer to Shinji.

You say quietly in Common: I have nothing to say.

>Shinji shakes his head in disagreement to Cemoch.
Shinji gives a bottle of beer to Cemoch.

Cemoch shrugs.

Shinji tells Cemoch in Common: I am drunk enough.

*//* *Drinking* *on* *the* *job?*

Cemoch drinks from a bottle of beer.

Shinji murmurs in Common: Drunk in sheer pleasure

The gruesome masked human looks at the drink.

Shinji unwields an ornamented bone dagger. With an elegant movement, Shinji
sheathes an ornamented bone dagger in his scabbard.
Shinji removes a left warglove.
Shinji removes a right warglove.

The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: alcohol?

Cemoch nods.

You say quietly in Common: At least I don't ever have to worry about covering
my tracks again, right Cemoch?

>The gruesome masked human drinks a bit from the bottle and the rest he spills
over you.

Avisa attempts to force a sweet smile, but fails.

>Shinji drags his claws across the metal again, making that horrible
screeching noise.

Avisa spits to the side.

>The gruesome masked human chuckles.

Avisa winces deeply, as the alcohol hits fresh cuts.

>Avisa grimaces darkly.

>Cemoch tells you in Common: It's a shame, truly. If you wouldn't have
betrayed our trust in you, I'd have shown you many things.

Avisa leans her head back against the cross, shifting her eyes carefully.

>Shinji rushes up to you and begins to claw wildly at her!

ARRGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!

>Cemoch tells you in Common: And now look at you. A bloody carcass.

The gruesome masked human grins.

Shinji claws at your face!

Avisa attempts vainly to move her face, turning from side to side.

>The gruesome masked human tells Shinji in Common: Hold on hold on... there's
too much blood. Pace it a bit.

Shinji slows a bit.
Shinji stops.

The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: we don't want her to
fall unconscious

Shinji goes hmmmm.

Cemoch tells you in Common: Why? Why the hell did you do this, eh?

Shinji looks at his claws.

Cemoch tells you in Common: Do you owe -them- so much?

Avisa attempts poorly to maintain her breathing, whimpering from time to time.

>Shinji murmurs in Common: They aren't long enough to kill. Just cause a
lot of pain.

Cemoch tells you in Common: I told you to keep out of things, but you couldn't
listen.
Cemoch tells you in Common: Rejecting our offer wouldn't even have bothered
me.

Shinji slashes at your stomach, ripping her clothes and leaving bright red
lines across her skin.

You tell Cemoch in Common: .. I did keep out of things.. I did.. I wish Jezz
never came to me. I don't know why he did.

Cemoch tells you in Common: But no, -You- had to spout it around.

Avisa gives Shinji a sideways glance.

>The gruesome masked human smiles slightly.

Cemoch tells you in Common: You betrayed my trust. I should have known better
than to like you.

The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: I had great plans for
her aswell
The gruesome masked human shakes his head slightly.

You tell Cemoch in Common: I didn't spout a thing.. you're never going to
realize that. I betrayed nothing. I came to you whenever you wanted it.
I followed you. I spoke with you.
>You tell Cemoch in Common: I asked your permission for things. I refused
to be a spy to those who asked it.

>Cemoch tells you in Common: You did jack.

Shinji brings a nail behind your ear.

Cemoch tells you in Common: Maybe we let you hang here and sacrifice <EDIT>
right in front of you.

You ask Cemoch in Common: Do you have any idea how long people from the
Legion and otherwise have asked me to spy on you?

>Cemoch tells you in Common: He's not only a traitor to us, but also to his
kind.

You tell Cemoch in Common: You know my sweet smile better than anyone. that
is all they received.

Shinji pierces his nail through the back of the ear, and rips a large portion
from it.

The gruesome masked human .oO(sweet smile... she's really mad).

Cemoch tells you in Common: Your smile was apparently a fake.

*//* *Duh..* *of* *course* *it* *was* *fake.*

>Shinji tosses the piece to the ground.

Cemoch tells you in Common: We aren't to be messed with. That includes <EDIT>.

The gruesome masked human nods slowly.

Avisa casts her glance downwards again sadly.

>Shinji watches as the rats come and devour the hunk of flesh.

Cemoch tells you in Common: I have no idea why you morons decided to prevent
this war anyway.
Cemoch tells you in Common: <EDIT> you should be glad for it. Well, I suppose
you are sucky <EDIT-EDIT> then.

You say quietly in Common: I didn't get involved. I don't know what's going
on. Whatever <EDIT> and XeXo talked about, <EDIT> did it of his own accord.

>The gruesome masked human smirks.
The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: that's even worse than
beeing <EDIT>... beeing a stupid one
The gruesome masked human tells you in Common: You were offered the start of
a fructuos cooperation...

Cemoch tells you in Common: Taniel loving <EDIT> and traiterous darkelves.
What an entertaining bunch.

>The gruesome masked human nods slightly to Cemoch.

You sigh softly.

>Cemoch tells you in Common: The <EDIT> has indeed changed it seems.

You say quietly in Common: Taniel and I don't get along well.
>You say quietly in Common: He got miffed over some incident with stones.
>You can't do that because you are shackled.

>The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: she said she was not
interested in money, and that she cared a lot about her reputation

Shinji murmurs in Common: Of course not, you are a weak girl, you probably
bow before that stupid whore, Gwen.

Cemoch tells you in Common: Let's assume I'm right, just for a tiny liddle'
moment.
Cemoch tells you in Common: Then I'd say you are the most pathetic, upstanding
and brown-nosing <EDIT> I've ever seen.

You tell Shinji in Common: Yeah. that's quick of you. After i've already
mentioned several things.
>You tell Shinji in Common: I'm glad you retained your frog wit.

>Shinji grins.

The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: amazing
The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: she still can talks clearly

Shinji murmurs in Common: I can fix that, if you like...

The gruesome masked human looks at you and his wounds at the face.

Cemoch says in Common: no

Shinji watches your tongue.

The gruesome masked human ponders the situation.

Cemoch says in Common: we need her to be able to talk

You tell the gruesome masked human in Common: I was offered nothing. I was
offered 100 gold coins in exchange for a very poor, and badly put together
story.

Cemoch says in Common: So? I already told that rejecting the offer wasn't
the problem here.
Cemoch smiles slightly at you.

The gruesome masked human raises his eyebrow.

The garbage on the road smells awfully bad.

The gruesome masked human asks in Common: Can't you see further from what
you have in front of your nose?
The gruesome masked human asks you in Common: what you saw were that 100 gold
coins?
The gruesome masked human rolls his eyes in exasperation.

You tell Cemoch in Common: Perhaps I am. Considering that I refuse to be
called a criminal. I try to be upstanding in the sense that I don't like to
get into conflict, but I would still take any and all rumors to come and
talk to you.
>You tell the gruesome masked human in Common: No. I saw an attempt at a war.
>You tell the gruesome masked human in Common: In which I would be placed on
either side.

>The gruesome masked human shrugs.

Cemoch says in Common: You know, Drakkarr also came to me and asked what I know
about this matter and that he was informed by a "anonymous darkelf" about it.
Which makes you also Legion-loving.

You tell the gruesome masked human in Common: And I didn't want to be put on
any of them.

>You ask Cemoch in Common: Why is it that you think that every darkelf I
know???? Why am I put together in groups? Can't I do things of my own will?

>Cemoch says in Common: Legion-Taniel-Men-loving. Gets better and better.

Shinji murmurs in Common: Don't forget that they are bad <EDIT>

You tell Cemoch in Common: Well, it makes sense for me to love men.

>The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: I think it's a shame for
them

Avisa attempts to smile sweetly, but grimaces deeply instead.

>Cemoch tells Shinji in Common: True. Sucky, at the very least.

Shinji nods to Cemoch.

You tell the gruesome masked human in Common: And I don't know what you speak
of with <EDIT>.. with whatever you just mentioned..

>The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: they have lost all their
pride

Cemoch asks in Common: What deity believes <EDIT> in? Anyone knows?

You tell the gruesome masked human in Common: I trusted him.

>The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: <EDIT>?

Shinji shrugs.

The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: Lilith

Cemoch throws his head back and cackles with glee!

Avisa gives the gruesome masked human a sideways glance.

>The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: as I said... I introduced
him to <EDIT>
The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: so I know a bit about him
The gruesome masked human chuckles.

Cemoch says in Common: A Lilith follower betrays us? To them?!? Lord, almighty!

The gruesome masked human shrugs.
The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: they have lost all their
pride

Cemoch says in Common: I'm suprised his god didn't crush him yet.

Shinji looks at you.

The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: surely coming often to
taniel's temple to light some candles

Avisa glares hatefully at Shinji.

>Cemoch says in Common: But maybe she will eventually.

>The gruesome masked human smirks.

Cemoch says in Common: Lilith isn't very tolerant towards traitors to their
own kind.
Cemoch says in Common: At least let's hope so.

Shinji murmurs in Common: Oh, she isn't...

The gruesome masked human smirks.
The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: oh... be sure

You say quietly in Common: He's not being traitorous.

>The gruesome masked human peers intently at you.

You say quietly in Common: It was <EDIT> I went to talk with about Lilith,
once Jezz refused me.

>Cemoch says in Common: Let me recap here: We were betrayed by a Lilith
worshipping darkelf, to Taniels and the Legion, because he doesn't like war?
Cemoch goes hmmmm.

The gruesome masked human tells you in Common: He has betrayed <EDIT>, his
goddes, and the pride of his brothers.

Cemoch says in Common: Sounds nearly like a comedy to me if it weren't...
Cemoch says in Common: so FUCKING sad.

The gruesome masked human throws his head back and cackles with glee!
>The gruesome masked human asks you in Common: did I refuse you?

Shinji grins.

The gruesome masked human grins.

>Shinji looks at Cemoch.
Shinji looks at you.

Cemoch is suddenly surrounded with an aura of pure life force. He looks
stronger and healthier now.

>You nod slowly to the gruesome masked human.

>The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: and the more I think
about it... the happier I am

Cemoch tells you in Common: Know that whatever happens to you today has been
caused by you, <EDIT> and <EDIT>.

Shinji draws an ornamented bone dagger from his scabbard and twirls it in his
hands.
Shinji looks at you.
Shinji ponders the situation.

You tell Cemoch in Common: I wish I had answers for you. But I do not. And I
doubt we will be talking more. I'm sure it's hard for even an old man to deal
with a twisted girl.

>Cemoch tries to calm himself down and takes a deep breath.

You tell Cemoch in Common: But if you find me pathetic, so be it. But I cannot
tell you what I do not know.

>The gruesome masked human goes hmmmm.

You tell Cemoch in Common: It was fun, though. Truly.
>You spit on the ground.

>The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: each minute that passes,
the idea of her impaled gets more attractive

Shinji adjusts the hold on his dagger and swings it down on your foot, piercing
straight through it.

You shout in Common: Fuckin' impale me then!

>The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: fun?

Cemoch tells you in Common: You know. I know that, you know that, they know
that.

You tell the gruesome masked human in Common: Not this..

>The gruesome masked human chuckles.
The gruesome masked human asks in Common: Impale?
The gruesome masked human throws his head back and cackles with glee!

You tell the gruesome masked human in Common: When Cemoch would pretend that
he was still sexually able, despite the fact that he's a balding old man.

>The coarse thick-armed male human walks in from northup.
The coarse well-built male human walks in from northup.

The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: the last orc I played with,
lasted one month impaled at HIS castle

Avisa attempts another sweet smile.

>Cemoch grins slightly.

The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: and when I talk about
impaling... I mean with my bone spear

Shinji twists his dagger around in your foot.

The gruesome masked human laughs amusedly.

Cemoch tells you in Common: Nice attempt to make me kill you, but nooo... we
got plans for you.

Avisa shrieks at Shinji wildly.

>Shinji grins satanically.

You tell Cemoch in Common: Ahh. I didn't think that would make you kill me.

>Shinji rips the blade out.

You tell Cemoch in Common: I wa.. Urgh..
>You spit on Shinji.
>You tell Cemoch in Common: I was just attempting the whole honesty thing.

>Shinji murmurs in Common: More! More spit! I love it!

Cemoch tells you in Common: And you pathetically fail.

You say quietly in Common: Let me fight Shinji. We all know he'll win.
>Avisa gives Shinji a sideways glance.

>The gruesome masked human smirks.

Shinji runs his dagger down your lips.

The gruesome masked human asks in Common: Fight?

Cemoch tells you in Common: But Shinji enjoys himself.

Avisa licks the blood from her lips.

>Shinji murmurs in Common: Now it should be even painful to talk.

The gruesome masked human nods slightly.

Avisa stares at Shinji coldly.

Shinji murmurs in Common: Maybe I could go to work on her teeth...

Cemoch ponders the situation.

The gruesome masked human smirks.

Avisa grits her teeth together.

>Cemoch tells Shinji in Common: Nope, we need her talking, remember?

Avisa stares at Cemoch steadily.

>Shinji murmurs in Common: I've never been able to pull one out before, maybe
I can now?

Shinji murmurs in Common: Oh, just one

The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: well, she still has some
limbs asking for your work, Shinji

Shinji murmurs in Common: She doesn't need all of them

Avisa runs her tongue loosely over the cut on her lip.

>Cemoch tells Shinji in Common: I said no.

Avisa leans her head back against the cross.

>Shinji snaps his fingers.

Avisa closes her eyes.

>The gruesome masked human goes hmmmm.

Avisa lifts her chin ever so slightly.

>The gruesome masked human ponders the sky for a moment.
The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: oh... look at the time

Cemoch nods sadly.
Cemoch ponders the sky for a moment.

The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: I need to attend to duties at
castle

You mention nearly inaudibly in Common: I hope you die, Jezz.

>The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: there are more slaves there,
who need to be remembered of Pain

You mention nearly inaudibly in Common: That's rather sweet of me, I think.

>The gruesome masked human looks at you.
The gruesome masked human smiles.
The gruesome masked human tells you in Common: I hope you don't.
The gruesome masked human chuckles.

You smile slightly.

>Cemoch watches you thoughtfully.

The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: and that your torture
lasts forever
The gruesome masked human waves solemnly.

Shinji looks at Cemoch.

The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: May the Lich Lord blesses
your blade to spread Destruction around those lands

You mention nearly inaudibly in Common: Are you happy, Cemoch? Is this what you
wanted?

>Shinji looks at the gruesome masked human.
Shinji bows.

The gruesome masked human licks you.
The gruesome masked human goes hmmmm.

Avisa grimaces.

>Cemoch tells you in Common: No crime can go unpunished, sweetie.

The gruesome masked human whispers coldly in Common: tasty... maybe I'll visit
you often to get some of your blood

You mention nearly inaudibly in Common: Make sure you bring undead with you.

>Suddenly the gruesome masked human turns to stone.

Shinji ponders the situation.

You tell Cemoch in Common: I have done no crime, dear. But perhaps you have
done me a favor.

Cemoch asks you in Common: Did you honestly think we wouldn't find out?

The statue of the gruesome masked human crumbles to dust.

You tell Cemoch in Common: I have nothing to say. I told no one.

>Cemoch says in Common: Well, maybe we wouldn't have if <EDIT> would have
shut up.

>You tell Cemoch in Common: I told <EDIT> nothing. I told <EDIT> nothing.
They have told me nothing.

>Cemoch tells you in Common: You're in denial, suger.

Shinji murmurs in Common: Can I please cut her up some more?

You tell Cemoch in Common: You can bet that I'll never be easy to find again,
though. Well, you might find me. If you try really-really hard.

>Shinji cracks his neck.

You tell Cemoch in Common: But, dear?

>Cemoch tells Shinji in Common: Wait a bit longer. She lost some blood.

Shinji nods.

You tell Cemoch in Common: One day, before you either change form or die
from old age. I will kill you.
>You smile sadly at Cemoch.

Cemoch tells you in Common: If we want to find you, we will. No matter where
you hide. And I am sure you will, darling.

You tell Cemoch in Common: At least you'll never have to worry about 'furry
halfelf children' running around, yes?

>Cemoch studies you carefully.
Cemoch tells you in Common: If you have a loving and very tolerant husband,
you still might.

You smirk.

>Shinji murmurs in Common: Maybe a blind one.

You tell Cemoch in Common: I'm not going to put nightmares into the minds
of children.
>You tell Cemoch in Common: And I have no need for a weak man.
>You smirk.
>Avisa glances down at the ground.
>Avisa sighs defeatedly.

>Cemoch tells you in Common: Well, if you catch a healer in time, you still
might get away with a reasonable small scar. If you wait longer, though...
>Cemoch sighs slightly.

Shinji looks in his pocket.
Shinji finds the thumb.

You tell Cemoch in Common: A reasonable scar. A thumb in a Frog's pocket.
>You tell Cemoch in Common: Or a mutated difigurment which will place me in
hiding.
>Hmmmmm.

>Shinji tells you in Common: I'll let all the tshaharks I know what you think
of them.
Shinji smiles.

You tell Cemoch in Common: I think I'd rather keep the difigurement.
>You tell Shinji in Common: I'm sure they'll believe you. Funny. i don't think
i've ever heard you mention anything about being a traitor.
>You tell Shinji in Common: But you wrote the book on that, didn't you?

>Shinji murmurs in Common: Being a traitor?
Shinji sighs.
Shinji murmurs in Common: Poor, stupid little girl.
Shinji murmurs in Common: I'm afraid you will never get this thumb back.

You tell Shinji in Common: I have more wit that you can gather from any of your
hundreds of book that you received your papercuts from.

>Cemoch tells you in Common: You see, after our little talk now, you can either
hide and give up the life you knew, always being afraid to be discovered, or
you finally tell us what we want to know and you'll get away with only a
small scar and the knowledge that you're safe as long as you never ever
betray us again.

Shinji takes his knife and carves apart the thumb.

Cemoch says in Common: Now, a reasonable person would pick the second choice.
Cemoch says in Common: Any -sane- person would.

Shinji eyes his blade.

Cemoch says in Common: And since we know what to look for now, it doesn't
matter if you play the hero or not.

You tell Cemoch in Common: I will never be afraid of being discovered. Maybe
oneday you'll walk over the bridge, and find me waiting there instead of some
weak Scrag. I have nothing to tell you. If you don't realize that by now, then
you are far stupider than I would ever have given you credit for. So I'll give
up the life I knew. I have no answers for you. So without the knowledge, I only
have one choice.

>Cemoch says in Common: As a matter of fact, I told both <EDIT> and <EDIT> that
they don't have to fear anything as long as they stay ouf of our business now.

You tell Cemoch in Common: And what was between you and me, was never
interrupted, insofar as what my knowledge consisted of. You should know that.
>You tell Cemoch in Common: So in truth, I never betrayed you..

Cemoch says in Common: Oh well, but you did. Maybe not me personally, but our
mutual cause.
Cemoch looks at Shinji.

You tell Cemoch in Common: And you didn't even have the strength to fuck me up
yourself.

Shinji murmurs in Common: Done talking now?

>Cemoch shakes his head in disagreement to Shinji.

Shinji sighs.
Shinji sits down to rest a while.

*//* *"Are* *we* *there* *yet?"*

You see a woman throwing out her garbage from a window.

You tell Cemoch in Common: And I knew nothing about your 'cause'. Or that you
were even working together.

>Cemoch tells you in Common: I could have knocked you out alone, but you would
have ran away since I can't block more than one direction. Sounds logical?

You tell Cemoch in Common: Well, until Isha'el told me.
You tell Cemoch in Common: You could've done it with your dwarf friend.

Cemoch tells you in Common: My dwarf friend left, remember?
Cemoch is suddenly surrounded with an aura of pure life force. He looks
stronger and healthier now.

You smile insanely.
>You mention nearly inaudibly in Common: My blood is beginning to dry.
>You mention nearly inaudibly in Common: Better cut some more.
Avisa tries to smile sweetly at Cemoch.

>Cemoch nods to Shinji.

Shinji stands up.

You laugh.

>Shinji goes hmmmm.

You mention nearly inaudibly in Common: Ahh. I'm going to have to spend so
much more time in Ironhold.
>You sigh amusedly.
>You laugh.

>Shinji swings the back of his fist through the air and hits your left leg.
You hear a loud cracking noise.

You tell Cemoch in Common: I wish that I could haunt your dreams with my
disfigured sel....
>Avisa grimaces darkly, forcing out a slight chuckle through gritted teeth.

>Shinji brings his dagger against your heel.
Shinji goes hmmmm.

Cemoch tells you in Common: I'll remember you like you were... before this.

You tell Cemoch in Common: But.. Heh.. it would've been better if it was
just with ....

>ARRGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!

>Shinji cuts in deep, severing the tendon.

Avisa looks very weak.
>Avisa exhales sharply, blinking several times.

>Shinji reaches into the wound and rips the tendon out.

>ARRGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!
>ARRGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!

><OOC>: lol - that's so horrible. ;)

>Shinji places the long tendon on your head.

Cemoch looks as Shinji in open disgust.

Avisa lets her head drop forward, her mouth open in a silent gasp of disbelief.

><OOC>: Shinji: shinji is crazy :D

Cemoch tells Shinji in Common: Enough!

Avisa stammers, attempting to catch her breath.

>Cemoch tells Shinji in Common: For now.

Shinji murmurs in Common: Ahh, I was eyeing that thing for a while now

Cemoch tells you in Common: No one can stand pain like this. Now tell us.

Avisa seems to flitter in and out of consciousness for a moment, before slowly
rolling her head back up to rest against the cross.

>Cemoch smiles gently at you.

Avisa glances up blankly at the sky.

>You mention nearly inaudibly in Common: .. Cemoch.. I know.. nothing. You,
sadly, know more than I..

>Shinji gathers some maggots from the garbage in the street.
Shinji places the maggots on you.
Shinji smiles.

Cemoch tells you in Common: Wrong answer.

Shinji murmurs in Common: Maggots love flesh. Dead flesh, to be exact.

Avisa weakly lets her head drop downwards, her eyes shifting over the wounds
she can see.

>Shinji murmurs in Common: I think we have killed enough for them to go to
work.

You tell Shinji in Common: I'm sure they'd make a great gift for Jezz...
>You can't do that because you are shackled.

>Shinji murmurs in Common: He says they are too squishy for his taste.

>As you look northeast you see:
On a road inside a filthy city.
You can see the shapes of two medium humanoid creatures.

futile!

You smile sadly at Cemoch.

You tell Cemoch in Common: Ahh. This will get you nowhere. You know that.
You have something, though. You have the guarantee that I will not be seen in
public for some time. You have the guarantee that I will kill you at some point
in my life. And you have the knowledge that i did not openly betray, knowingly.

>Cemoch tells you in Common: I slowly run out of patience. If I do, I'll
leave here for good and let him...

Shinji murmurs in Common: And Dommon.

Cemoch says in Common: And friggin' Dommon.
Cemoch rolls his eyes in exasperation.

Shinji murmurs in Common: I'm sure he hasn't been intiment with a woman in
a long time. He probably isn't too picky.

You tell Cemoch in Common: Then sadly. You're wasting your time. I'm sorry.
As much as I would love to be in your company, or would've loved to share
other things with you. This isn't really the time for it any longer. I'm
sorry I ruined your plans. Or Jezz's for that matter.
>You smirk.
You tell Cemoch in Common: I will enjoy killing you. But I'll definitely
miss spending time with you.

There are five obvious exits: southeast, south, southwest, west, northwest.

*//* *End* *scene.*

  • Comments* anyone?

ShinJi is just misunderstood wink (And is now taking up daggers after realizing how horribly weak unarmed combat is)

This is simply not fair.. Raptor was not there wink Though, he heard about the story (uncensored version).. well
now I'm definiately sad I missed that great event.. (sorry Avisa ehehe )
ps: looks like she was able to get to a healer in time.. at least she did not looked ugly last time

AvisaDRuse: -coughs- Yeah. Well.. that's because the player was too shallow at the time? Not exactly a Raptor twin. wink Hey! Think about all the times that you've gotten gaping wounds or had your head cut off in battle! sniff But that is where her scar-a-la-JezZ came from. :P

JezZ: And as you can see, JezZ is a kind and friendly guildmaster, allowing the lower-rank clerics to give him lessons about something he has been doing nearly since he started to wander around Geas... ^^ so don't be afraid, newbie wannabes!
