        From Fremea: [RE: Actions]
          Fremea takes a couple of deep breaths. Is Varange ...

          "Yes, I will take the piece and my parents. I do not ...
        GM: Ack.

        From Z'leyra: [Re: Actions]
          Will asks the empty air "Where is who?" as he does what first
          aid he  can for his wolf.

          Z'leyra continues to try to aggressively fight the apes.
        GM: Ack.

      [New Stuff]

          [Octagi 5th, 1634TH]
          [Location: Plains, Donara]

          [Time: 7:43:11 pm - Donara City]

            Fremea takes a couple of deep breaths. Is Varange bluffing,
          just to get her to touch the pedestal? Is he just really wanting
          his piece to bring the Fae on better grounds with the Elves and
          the humans? Obviously her mark will not work on him, but maybe
          she can use the same trick he used on her. Just in case he tricks
          her.

            Fremea eyes the Marshall.  She knows little of him except from
          what Etain and the others have talked about.  Z'leyra and Unali
          have some personal experience with him.  He may be as arrogant
          as a Fomorian King but he does have some duty and honor.  He
          may not be like Thig who fed his dogs a pirate.  Course that
          was all show to fake the other pirates out.  But can this
          official of the Fae people really betray them and her?

            She considers waiting maybe seeing if Arawn and the other
          mages can free the piece and pieces.  But what if he is
          right the Elves may be already en route.  If Arawn was her
          he could use those darn truth spells on him.  She lowers
          her hand down to her belt and dagger.  Could she really
          break the sacred oath to harm no fae?  The anger begins
          to boil but she uses the calming techniques the Alfar showed
          her.  It would be bad to deal with this in anger.  After
          a few long moments in silence she stares at the rune on the
          pedestal.  There are rumors that Varange may even be a natural
          magician so powerful as Arawn might be.  But is that truth
          or legend to boost his ego?

            "Yes, I will take the piece and my parents. I do not wish to
          harm you as you are Faerry and I truly do not know what has been
          going on. It is a bad idea to keep the assassin in the dark, and
          I am not talking about just you. Why would I report anything to
          the Royals? They enslaved me, took my parents away and turned me
          into a ruthless killer. One thing I can thank everyone for
          though, is that I decided to become more than what everyone
          wanted me to be. Even you." She walks to the pedestal, hovering
          her hand over it. "If you cross me and keep in the dark, I may
          not be able to protect you. You are an amazing General, stop
          acting like a spoiled brat."

            Varange nods and smiles.  Inside his mind he really has no
          clue what will happen.  If he didn't need her this would never
          have been a thing.  For days he tried to break the wards but
          could not.  He even considered taking a elf wizard to break
          them but that would cause problems.  The Marshall nods to
          Fremea and hovers his hand over the rune.

            Fremea waits for the slightest acknowledgment that he
          understands she is taking the piece and her parents and then
          places her hand on the mark.


                               -------------


          [Time: 7:28:24 pm - Donara City]
          [Phase 9]

            Arawn powers his mana into a new spell and quickly casts
          it using the upper world languages he knows so the shaman
          doesn't know what he is planning.

            Unali stabs both daggers into Ape #2.  Both hit the upper
          and middle chest doing 18 points from magical dagger which
          kills him instantly and the other does any other left over
          damage to ensure death.

            Kiet with his boosted magical speed runs toward the last
          ape.  He joins along side the city guard and thrusts at the
          ape's left ribs with his tulwar doing 2 points of damage.

            Arawn inside the Kitchen slashes his sword at the Shaman.
          The blade digs deep into the man's upper chest from right
          breast to left digging enough damage to do 5 from his sword
          and 8 more from the magical Power Strike boost.  But the
          man does not fall but staggers back a foot.

            The shaman regains his balance and spits a curse.  He
          raises his skull focus and releases a spray of green
          powder toward Arawn's last known position.  With amazing
          luck the spray hits Arawn right into the eyes and immediately
          clouds his vision.  He swings his weapon but with weakened
          strength forcing him to miss hitting empty air.

            Kell moves to the last Ape to help Kiet and the guard. He
          thrusts his weapon but the ape is agile enough to avoid the
          strike of his blade.

            The last ape with 3 targets decides the one that just hurt
          him is the one to attack.  He turns and tries to swing his
          claws at Kiet.  But Kiet raises his shield and the claws
          are deflected by the shield.

            Z'leyra moves toward the last ape.  She can't swing now
          due to the others.  But she tries a simple but awkward
          overhead bash with her staff.  The staff hits the ape  in
          the skull.  The damage is enough to crush skull bone but
          the ape only had 4 points left so its a easy kill.

            Outside Will leans down and checks the Wolf.  As he does
          he looks around says outloud, "Where is who?"  but Will becomes
          a bit upset when he finds no pulse.  He puts down his weapon
          and tries to inspect the wounds by the dogs.  They do not seem
          to be doing much bleeding as his heart has seemingly stopped.
          But he doesn't know if First air will help the wolf now. He
          glances over his shoulder and stares at Z'leyra deep into
          the room.

            A voice from sounds a bit above and to the left speaks.
          "The Male Fae.  Is he with you?"


                                 -----------

          [Inside the Elven Vault]
          [Time: 7:45:00 pm - Donara City]

            Fremea places her hand on the rune and waits.   Waits a
          few seconds more. Anger boils.  Varange looks around trying
          to almost sniff the air.  Nothing?!  Five seconds pass then
          suddenly Fremea and Varange are riddled with jolts of energy
          like lightning.  It surges through their bodies and seems
          to lock their hands in place.

            Neither yell or scream not wanting the other to show any
          sign of weakness.  It isn't pain but like static charge on
          a stormy day.  Then both marks on each Fae begin to flow
          a bright yellow with enough intensity to see through the
          clothing.

            Then the rune around the hands begins to flow a bit of
          green-blue.  A flash of red then both are released from
          the runes magic.

            Both look at each other a bit too paranoid.  They glance
          around.  Fremea toward her parents and Varange to the piece.
          Fremea can sense the magical field around her parents still
          there.  She glares back at Varange who nods as if to say wait.
          Then a buzzing sound is quickly heard and dies down.  Fremea
          looks back and sees the magical field stop.

            "See no problem!"  Varange grins at Fremea.

            "--can't do this!"  Fremea's mother yells out.

            "--me not her!"  Fremea's father yells.

            Then both parents sag a bit as they can finally move.

            Fremea's father turns to his wife.  "Saya?"  He then
          flies to the his wife.  Rather tries at least since he
          hasn't moved in years trapped in the field.  He sags to
          his knees.  "Saya!"

            Fremea unfurls her wings and glances at Varange.

            Suddenly the cave begins to shake.  Rocks fall from walls
          and the ceiling.  Fremea looks around and Varange looks
          around just as confused.

            "Hand the coin to one of them and hold hands."  Varange
          yells to Fremea.

            Then in the far north wall behind the confused parents a
          avalanche of rock tumbles down the wall.

            Varange gives a very foul curse and stares at the new
          wave of rocks.  "That's not good."

            As the quick avalanche finishes the dust settles.  Both
          fae look to see a new exit maybe?  Seconds later though
          two large glowing red eyes appear in the darkness.  They
          are about 5 feet high off the ground.



                                 ---------

          [Tavern]
          [Time: 7:28:27 pm - Donara City]
          [Phase 10]

            Unali and Kell ensure the Apes are dead by doing some
          final stabs on their bodies.

            Inside the kitchen Arawn may be blind but he isn't without
          senses.  The shaman is giving out a very foul sweat and
          bad breath that a bat could find him. She stabs forward and
          with her enhanced power strike damage does way enough damage
          to piece the shaman deep.  The shaman falls to the ground.
          Arawn yells, "Shaman's in here!"

            Z'leyra drops her staff and scans the guard.  He'll live.
          Then leans down to Raban.  The amount of blood on the ground
          and tunic shows he'd have died if not saved by the bard.

            The Bard stands.  "He'll live.  Raban has been through
          much more than that."  He grins as he wipes his hands on
          a tablecloth.

            Will turns to the window to see inside that the combat
          looks over.  But his wolf is dead or dying.  There is simply
          no pulse in him and his first aid will do little.



                                 -----------

          [Inside the Elven Vault]
          [Time: 7:45:22 pm - Donara City]

            Fremea's father begins to walk-stagger toward Saya who has
          fallen herself to one knee.  She is staring at the darkness
          of the new cave in the back.

            Suddenly a low rumble of a growl is heard.  It seems to seep
          into the bones of the Fae around. Hairs raise on necks and
          arms.  Then a couple of wet sloppy sounding noises are heard
          like dogs walking in puddles.

            From the cave emerges a beast.  It is as big as a bull around
          and around 5.5 feet tall.  It has large horns on its head like
          a bull that are red colored.  The fur is brown.  It walks on
          4 stubby legs that are about 2 feet tall.  It has a tail that
          whips back and forth that shows a possible point on one end
          that might be 2-3 feet long for a tail.  Its nostrils are that
          of a minotaur flaring and giving breaths of dust.  But the
          eyes are a dark blood red with only slight whites.  The teeth
          are mostly squat but there are a few sharp fangs on upper and
          lower jaws.  It is hard to tell but the hooves look like they
          may have pointed claws.  But the oddest thing is it also has
          a pair of wings about 3 feet wide.

            It growls as it looks to the Fae, especially the nearby
          parents only feet away.

          Next update...Friday...

          GM: A short but fun update.  All bad guys in tavern seem dead.
              Let me know what to do in the next few seconds.  I was
              off today (Sunday) so hope to get this out early.  So
              expect this the Monday update.  I will try to work on
              the experience and mana charts on Wednesday.  If I get
              enough response I'll work on next update then as well.
              The following week may be hectic for a few reasons for
              a 2 update week (family graduation).  But we'll see.

          GM: Arawn - You are still blinded by the mist.

              Fremea - Some decisions to be made.  :)
                You are 45 feet to Varange on your left (facing north)
                You are 53 or so feet to Piece
                You are 55 feet toward Dad
                You are 65 feet toward mother
                You are 60 feet or so to Beast
                Beast is only 7-8 feet to dead
                Beast is around 13-15 to mother.
              Keep in mind you do about 7-8 hexes flying per phase
              Hope this helps as a visual and I made one map without
              hexes though to me hexes help with scale.

          GM: 23 Customers saved, 3 more at table.
              1 Customer dead, Kitchen staff dead?
              (For my records).
