Alfadas Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Aye. Let's go and see what else this crazy place has to offer. Torald shakes the last bit of confusion out of his head and smiles, happy those pesky Wisps are finally gone.
MysticModulus Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) OoC: The Flickr-url to my portrait seems to have chrashed. I did a quickfix and added a picture directly hosted via eurobricks in my signature. However it's slightly bigger than the 100 x 100-standards so I haven't changed it in the statistics. I hope the original url will fix itself (not likely I guess...). Sorry for all the trouble WBD! Edited April 29, 2016 by MysticModulus
BountyBeast Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Hunkan begins to realize that he will not get along well with Ezeran. "What, am I the only one who makes mistakes around here? It wasn't my fault that he began defending the wisp. Anyways..." "The Cuppelation Furnace seems to be the only place we haven't explored yet. Should we have a look there?"
MysticModulus Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Hunkan begins to realize that he will not get along well with Ezeran. "What, am I the only one who makes mistakes around here? It wasn't my fault that he began defending the wisp. Anyways..." "The Cuppelation Furnace seems to be the only place we haven't explored yet. Should we have a look there?" Ezeran stares at Hunkan for just a moment before he closes his eyes for an instant and rubs his temples. "Yes, you've got a point I suppose. Just... Act your part in this, okay? Let's go to the Cuppelation Furnace and check it out."
Rider Raider Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Timothy gives a dazed look and a nod to the idea of going to the furnace. He looks kind of empty.
Palathadric Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Ezeran kicks at the ashes of the Wisp in frustration and turns to Hunkan. "You're not that smooth for being a rogue, are you? Well now the damned thing is passed on to another realm. Let us move forward!" "I think many of us did stuff we wish we hadn't in that fight," I muse aloud. "Let's visit the furnace and try not to be burned.
Waterbrick Down Posted April 30, 2016 Author Posted April 30, 2016 The Party heads for the Cuppelation Furnace. Down below they find a large constructed ring, a scattering of red crystals, and two rather surprised individuals. "Umm..." "Well this is awkward." "Definitely explains the missing Wisps though..."
Rider Raider Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 "If you don't mind us asking, who are you?" Timothy says in a partially sarcastic, joking, and serious tone. Timothy then snaps into reality and realizes that the thing I front of him is a genie. "I wish for a genie of my own!" Timothy says sarcastically, but secretly hoping he'll get one.
dum Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 Timothy gives a dazed look and a nod to the idea of going to the furnace. He looks kind of empty. You okay there Tim? The Party heads for the Cuppelation Furnace. Down below they find a large constructed ring, a scattering of red crystals, and two rather surprised individuals. "Umm..." "Well this is awkward." "Definitely explains the missing Wisps though..." Nice legs, greenie. Kid casually reaches for his crossbow. So do you guys wanna explain yourselves, or should we skip to the part where we kill you?
BountyBeast Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 "These must be the pointy hats the lizard was talking about. Who are you and what is your business here?"
MysticModulus Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 Ezeran doesn't look surprised at all, he looks more like a person who has gotten their premonitions confirmed. "Who are you and what are you doing in an assembly belonging to the Guild?"
Alfadas Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 Torald makes sure his Spark Hammer is ready to be drawn if need be. How did you get here? And who are you? Also, what are those red crystals? Torald seems curious.

"No one to be trifled with I can assure you and you certainly don't know how genies work." You okay there Tim? Nice legs, greenie. Kid casually reaches for his crossbow. So do you guys wanna explain yourselves, or should we skip to the part where we kill you? "And neither do you apparently. Such violence." "Now now, Volatio, I'm sure they're as surprised to see us just as we are to see them." "These must be the pointy hats the lizard was talking about. Who are you and what is your business here?" The man replied in a calm and charming tone. "We could ask you the very same question. Though unlike your friend, I can't say we'll threaten to kill you." Ezeran doesn't look surprised at all, he looks more like a person who has gotten their premonitions confirmed. "Who are you and what are you doing in an assembly belonging to the Guild?" "Just a bit of research really, nothing special. Just about finished up actually." "Master you are too modest." Torald makes sure his Spark Hammer is ready to be drawn if need be. How did you get here? And who are you? Also, what are those red crystals? Torald seems curious. "I am Marco Malfron, Adjunct Artificer to the Ziegfried family, and this is my loyal companion, assistant, and butler Volatio." The mage gives a short bow. "As for how we got here, it's rather complicated I'm afraid." "As for the crystals, I'm surprised you don't know." Edited May 2, 2016 by Waterbrick Down
Rider Raider Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 "No one to be trifled with I can assure you and you certainly don't know how genies work." "It was worth a shot." "As for the crystals, I'm surprised you don't know." "We don't know what they do, but we do know that they are property of the Guild of Invision. Hand 'em over." Timothy stops and thinks."Unless you could be a genie that actually works and give me the wishes you robbed me of."
dum Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 The man replied in a calm and charming tone. "We could ask you the very same question. Though unlike your friend, I can't say we'll threaten to kill you." Kid tries diplomacy. We were hired by Dr. Alphy to fix whatever was screwing up his experiments, and it looks like you guys are the source of the problem. He takes a deep breath in, as diplomacy is not his strong suit. It would be nice to negotiate, but any fast moves or desperate escapes and I will not hesitate to let some arrows loose. "I am Mason Malfron, Adjunct Artificer to the Ziegfried family, and this is my loyal companion, assistant, and butler Volatio." The mage gives a short bow. "As for how we got here, it's rather complicated I'm afraid." Ah hah! You were right, Timothy! Or Petaldan... was it Ezeran? Kid's memory draws up a blank. Whatever. Someone was right about something. The Ziefrieds are behind all of this.

You deluded popinjay fool of a satyr, I could turn you into a toad, Master?" "Now now, Volatio. I think these tubes have enough creepy crawlies of their own already. And Mr. Satyr these crystals of precipitated Tonic are merely the size of a pin's head in the outside and no more important to the Guild of Invision than your socks. As I said we're conducting some simple research and then we'll be on our way." Kid tries diplomacy.

"The utterly flagrant dependence upon violence, didn't give it away, Master?" Edited April 30, 2016 by Waterbrick Down
Rider Raider Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 "Robbed you of? You deluded popinjay fool of a satyr, I could turn you into a toad, Master?" "I see a genie, I expect wishes. I guess not all are at that level yet or something."
BountyBeast Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 "Are the crystals the only part of your research, or does it involve anything else? Like, say, a salamander?" Hunkan eyes the duo suspiciously, but does not reach for his sword.

The poor spirit is in rather poor spirits. I wouldn't mind a couple wishes myself though...Ahem, back to the business at hand." As I said we're conducting some simple research and then we'll be on our way." "Oh, did Doctor Cula invite you in here as a present for us returning the Triffid?" "So the Guild of Invision hired you? So you must be Heroes from Heroica then..." "Yes, we are. We were sent to fix this machine. It seemed to be encountering some errors. You wouldn't happen to know what could be malfunctioning though, would you?" "The utterly flagrant dependence upon violence, didn't give it away, Master?" "Sir, I don't much like the way you talk."

"So the Guild of Invision hired you? So you must be Heroes from Heroica then..." "The utterly flagrant dependence upon violence, didn't give it away, Master?" Yep, that's us. Trigger happy murderous Heroicans. "Are the crystals the only part of your research, or does it involve anything else? Like, say, a salamander?" Hunkan eyes the duo suspiciously, but does not reach for his sword. Yeah... what was that you said about the wisps? Why did you have to bring those damn flaming jukeboxes in here?

"One master at a time, I'm afraid, my good satyr." The mage winked. "Are the crystals the only part of your research, or does it involve anything else? Like, say, a salamander?" Hunkan eyes the duo suspiciously, but does not reach for his sword. "That elemental was here before we showed up. Almost bit me in half!" The genie dusted himself off. "As for my master's research, I'm sure your wizard and cleric would be most interested in his fantastic findings." "Now Volatio, there's no need to brag." And what is that big circular thing there? "It's a gate. Rather complicated magical thing. As I said we were just getting ready to leave." "Oh, did Doctor Cula invite you in here as a present for us returning the Triffid?" "Yes, we are. We were sent to fix this machine. It seemed to be encountering some errors. You wouldn't happen to know what could be malfunctioning though, would you?" "I don't know anything about a Frifflid? And no, I doubt the doctor is aware of our presence, not that he would tolerate us if we presented ourselves to him at his front door." "Sir, I don't much like the way you talk." "And I don't much like your friend's warmongering." You're not going any where. Either we take you back to explain yourself to Alphy, or you die right here. Yep, that's us. Trigger happy murderous Heroicans. Yeah... what was that you said about the wisps? Why did you have to bring those damn flaming jukeboxes in here? "That won't be necessary as I said we were just getting ready to leave. As for the Wisps, I needed a few expendable scouts, I can't vouch for the temperament of my summons I'm afraid though. We've got no quarrel for you and I'm sure the good doctor will survive not making tonics for a week." Edited April 30, 2016 by Waterbrick Down
MysticModulus Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 Ezeran is not happy. "This is trespassing and you know that. You are taking great risks here, this could lead towards an escalation of the conflict between the houses. I demand that you surrender yourselves to us and lrave in our custody. "

More like ensuring against extortionism. Don't speak to me about escalation of conflict. You're a mage, where do you restore your ether from? Tonics, right? Who do you think is the single supplier of those tonics in all of Eubric Freeport?"
Palathadric Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 Yep, that's us. Trigger happy murderous Heroicans. "Oh dear, kid. That's not such a nice thing to say. I don't think we're murderers." "I don't know anything about a Frifflid? And no, I doubt the doctor is aware of our presence, not that he would tolerate us if we presented ourselves to him at his front door." "Oh my, I thought there would be a problem like this. You should have just asked them if you could have a look at their machinery. Then we wouldn't have this problem and poor Doctor Cula wouldn't be wondering what's wrong with his machine." "And I don't much like your friend's warmongering." "I'm sorry. I don't know what's gotten into him." "Trespassing? More like ensuring against extortionism. Don't speak to me about escalation of conflict. You're a mage, where do you restore your ether from? Tonics, right? Who do you think is the single supplier of those tonics in all of Eubric Freeport?" "If you want cheaper tonics, maybe you should make them yourself. If you make friends with the Guild of Invision, they might give you their recipes and teach you how to make machines."
