[pnpgm] Game Update #168

[John Haight]

OOC:   Been dealing with things and didn't get a chance to properly check on the game for the last week or two. Sorry about that. Would've cast a divination regarding the right/left but looks like that might not be an issue at this point.

   And sorry to hear about the other players, from surgery to power outages. Hope that recovery is swift and everyone is/will be well.


============


   As the sudden surprise from being slammed into the ground passed Arawn appeared calm, focused more on studying the situation and whatever force was now at play. That a test would occur seemed likely but that the alfar were not part of the compact was less so, but nevertheless an interesting discovery. It then occurred to him that the compact might trace its roots back to the same war that took place between gods and men, possibly the same one that saw the Shifters and others played a part in as well. Though a bit more versed on that history than those of the Middle World he knew that much was hidden from the younger generations by the elder gods, though for better or worse remained to be discovered.


   "Thank you," he replied to the voice, his chin dipping briefly in respectful greeting. "My name is Arawn, son of the Morrigan and son of Payan, and I am no spy. It has been said that I carry a spark of the oldest in me, something that separates me from most of my kin. Strength of will and mental prowess are part of this, likely the reason I broke the trance.

   I am companion to those here, locked away from the Upper Realms for reasons I do not know. Different I am from many of my family, for it is peace and healing, of spirit as well as body, that I seek. And in this I do not cave to any, god or mortal, for there is more to our existence than one can imagine.

    I have sought to redeem those deemed irredeemable. My desire for peace helped to avert the Vong invasion of this world, hopefully helping to plant the seeds necessary to heal the damage brought to them by the Eldest Serpent. We have arrived here in our quest to save the Bes king and return him to his people. This and more speak of who I am but converse with the others if you wish and they shall tell you so, if they so desire.

   If you wish to know more beyond what they might share with ask and I shall give you the truth."
