[Time:
7:48 am]<br><br>
Z'leyra is heading to meet Omas at the shore for some<br>
very
cold swimming today. She passes a small field where<br>
there
are 8 pesaants around a elderly older man. The man<br>
is
preaching about his god and how powerful he is that they<br>
should
join his group of worshippers and be well rewarded. Z'leyra<br>
notices the peasants growing agitated but not against the<br>
man
but for what he is saying. Z'leyra watches as the man<br>
walks
to a bush and waves a hand over the bush. The crowd<br>
gasps
as they see something. But to Z'leyra she sees nothing.<br>
"As this bush decays the power of my god grows and is given<br>
to you
in reverse!" Z'leyra sees the plant fine and realizes<br>
the
man must be using illusions. She stops and walks toward<br>
the
group. As she inches her way forward the necklaces around<br>
her
neck forces the bush to reveal the truth to the crowd. They<br>
point
but the man ignores them. He eyes Z'leyra and says she<br>
is a
non believer and should be removed. Four men come<br>
close
as the man points to Z'leyra. <br><br>
Z'leyra quickly moves to the elderly man and hopes the<br>
necklace will reveals a bit more. She is surpirsed to<br>
see
the man never change. "Kill that non believer!"<br><br>
Six of the men and women move toward Z'leyra. Z'leyra<br>
wishes
Arawn was here a priest could argue against this<br>
man or
reveal him faster. Z'leyra backs up from the group<br>
as she
considers her options. She can't just take on these<br>
peasants. But the elderly man is another story if he is<br>
doing
evil here. She has her staff but since she would<br>
be
swimming doesn't wear her armor.<br><br>
Time is up as four of the men grab her arms and shoulders.<br>
One of
the men draws a rusty knife.<br><br>
Suddenly the elderly man yelps as Corona fires a bolt from<br>
his
eyes squarely at the back of the man.<br><br>
Everyone turns to see the man shift from human form to<br>
a
scaled short thing with pointy ears. Z'leyra has seen<br>
similar things like a terrestial demon. The crowd gasps<br>
as
they see his true form. But the crowd recovers as the man<br>
continues to speak that only they will get the bonus of his<br>
gods
and their family.<br><br>
The man draws up the rusty knife and Z'leyra kicks the<br>
man
away. She throws the man on her left arm toward the<br>
man on
her other arm making heads collide. She reaches<br>
down
and grabs her staff. Stepping back as the others<br>
charge
she swings.<br><br>
She knocks out one man quickly but was a pulled blow<br>
not
wanting to kill the man. She side steps and rushes<br>
the
Pseudothei thing. She swings and hits the old man<br>
knocking him down to the ground.<br><br>
Five of the men attack and charge Z'leyra. They kick, claw<br>
and
slug Z'leyra doing 5, 4 and 6 points of damage. But she<br>
knows
if they can only see the truth they'll stop.<br><br>
The creature gets to his knees and yells at the shaman<br>
speaking strange words. Then in Marentian he says "If<br>
I did
you all will kill each other!"<br><br>
This causes the crowd to be taken aback. They hesitate<br>
and
seem dazed. Z'leyra hits the demon in the head once<br>
more
doing another 10 points. The creature fails flat<br>
on his
back. <br>
<br>
- The
crowd surges all at once as 8 men and women toward<br>
Z'leyra. Corona fires a blast in front of the crowd forcing<br>
them
to stop and hesitate as they glance up at the eagle.<br><br>
Z'leyra glances down to see the man breathing so he's<br>
not
dead that's good. Z'leyra quickly speaks a few words<br>
and a
fine mist starts to drop over the crowd. Soon the<br>
weak
peasants fall asleep.<br><br>
Z'leyra can't detect what magic is at hand here so can't figure<br>
out
what to end. So she circles the sleeping group and<br>
waits. Soon the first man wakes and she demands he remain<br>
on the
ground. Then a 2nd and 3rd man. She continues this until<br>
all of
the 8 people wake and are forced to remain on the<br>
ground. She waits and waits. Soon the magic of whatever<br>
was
cast on this crowd ends. A woman gasps at seeing the<br>
scaled
demon thing. Then 2 more man realize what they are<br>
seeing. Z'leyra explains this thing is not working for them<br>
but
against them. She lets the crowd up and they back away.<br>
That's
when Z'leyra delivers the blow to kill the beast.<br><br>
Confused and dazed Z'leyra casts a healing spell upon<br>
herself as they thank the healer for helping them.<br><br>
She declines swimming as her wounds could get infected<br>
in the
water so instead they jog a few miles.<br><br>
[Time:
3:24 am]<br>
<br>
Z'leyra wakes to the clank of the front gate. She'll<br>
have
to oil it soon. She notices the guards talking to<br>
3 on
horseback. The men soon leave and the guards<br>
re-enter the manor grounds. Curious she summons one guard<br>
to
find out what was the issue. It seems the group that<br>
came
back to get healing for hunting down the bandits has<br>
come
back. They found the bandit camp but did lose half<br>
their
group and only down to 3 now. They felt they should<br>
at
least let you know and give thanks for the healing.<br><br>
[Janaq
24th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br>
[Time:
7:48 am]<br>
-<br>
Z'leyra is requested at a tavern this early to meet a group<br>
of
merchants. When she gets there she finds 15 merchants.<br>
They
explain that her healing school could offset local healers<br>
and
pull resources from them. In the end it is a issue of<br>
supply
and demand They are here to protect their supply<br>
lines
including healers. Z'leyra stands for 45 minutes<br>
and
gives a eloquent argument.<br><br>
A dozen of the merchants leave without given approval or<br>
comments. Three remain. They ask questions and she
answers<br>
them
as best she can. At least one man who sells healing<br>
kits
to the military does not like how she looks. She is<br>
not a
typical healer in the city. Dressed in various styles<br>
of
clothing and that helmet. The merchant feels Z'leyra<br>
is not
the city quality healer based on these silly things.<br>
The
two who remain promise to get back to her on future<br>
deals
for supplies once they assess her "school".<br>
-<br>
[Time:
9:33 pm]<br><br>
Z'leyra spots a creature flying in the air over the<br>
buildings nearby. She is heading home from the school<br>
to get
dinner so Corona is not with her. The creature<br>
is
wearing light blue robes or cowls. As she watches<br>
she
recognizes it as a possible female jinn. The Jinn is<br>
flying
over the buildings fast. Z'leyra tries to give<br>
chase
on her horse but the flying Jinn is so fast she<br>
easily
over takes distance and disappears from Z''leyra's sight.<br><br>
[Janaq
25th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
That evening Z'leyra casts Orient Self, Purification and<br>
Knowledge to gain more Restoration knowledge. <br><br>
[Janaq
30th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br>
[Time:
3:14 pm]<br><br>
After a long morning of obstacle course work, Z'leyra<br>
notices 5 peasants on a street. Four seem to be arguing with<br>
one
young male. Seems the 4 are trying to prevent the man<br>
from
marrying a girl they feel to be tainted by bad spirits.<br>
Z'leyra knows the lowest group of society have these odd<br>
phobias and superstitions. To argue for the man would<br>
just
be futile. Sometimes education helps but to some there<br>
is no
hope. She leaves them to their argument.<br><br>
[Janaq
31st, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br>
[Time:
3:12 pm]<br><br>
Z'leyra is making up for lost swimming time today when she<br>
notices getting out of the water a single cattle bull. Omas<br>
yells
at her to go back to the water. But Z'leyra finds it<br>
odd
for a animal of this type to be so close to the water.<br>
Very
little grazing land in this small beach. Omas pushes<br>
Z'leyra back into the ice water. To swim a bit more to build<br>
up her
stamina. As she exits the bull seems to be missing<br>
and
figures the owner came and found it or it was taken by<br>
others. Either way it is branded so not her concern.<br><br>
[Febris 1st, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
Z'leyra casts a Cure Age spell on herself.<br><br>
[Febris 4th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
Z'leyra casts Cure Age, Orient Self, Purification and another<br>
Knowledge spell to learn more Restoration. She then casts<br>
Mana
shield which fails, mana sense, mana reading and a<br>
balance speed spell. <br><br>
Z'leyra then casts Orient Self and 5 enchantments to<br>
enchant her previously made purses to improve their<br>
armor
value and capacity. She does this for 2 of the 5 before<br>
she
gets low on mana.<br><br>
[Febris 5th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
Now that Z'leyra has finished her stamina training<br>
she
can dedicate the rest of her time mainly at the<br>
healing school. Today she inspects the school.
Originally<br>
she
only had 3 students but they have moved on to other<br>
jobs. There isn't just enough work for this school<br>
at
this time. The one student Kamaris is young in his<br>
early
20s and explains that it is mostly first aid stuff<br>
with
nothing serious. He explains that the reputation of<br>
her
school will have to spread before they get a steady<br>
customer flow. Till then it may only be a half dozen a week<br>
at
most. Even then they usually pay in trade or chickens or<br>
some
such as peasants can't afford much.<br><br>
[Time:
10:50 am]<br><br>
At the school two farmers rush in with a man bleeding.<br>
From a
nearby farm about 2 miles away it is close rather<br>
than
other healers. They explained there was a plow<br>
accident and he was cut. Z'leyra and Kamaris examine the<br>
man
and find the leg almost dead. If it was the main artery<br>
he'd
be dead by now. But this is serious so Z'leyraa has<br>
to
cast a healing spell on him. Z'leyra requests to
watch<br>
the
man for anther hour in a room until she can discharges him.<br><br>
The farmers offer to pay in goats if need be. <br><br>
[Time:
5:50 pm]<br><br>
Z'leyra is heading back to her manor when she spots<br>
3
falcons in the air nearby. Two are adults and one<br>
is a
small one. She watches as Corona dives and<br>
weaves
playing harmlessly with the birds. She considers<br>
changing to eagle form but it is dusk and needs to<br>
get
home. She decides to stop at a tavern for dinner and<br>
see if
some of the local rich and elite are around to carouse<br>
with
so she can socialize.<br><br>
[Time:
8:46 pm]<br><br>
Z'leyra bombed out finding only a tax collector in the<br>
tavern. It seems it is harder to get into the social<br>
elite
than expected. Back at the manor she is in her<br>
office
when she notices the clank of the front gate<br>
open. The guard is talking to some peasant and they<br>
are
arguing. The other guard from the back goes to help<br>
the
verbal argument. Z'leyra dons her armor and<br>
grabs
her sword and staff. Why can't the guards just get<br>
rid of
the peasant? Exiting the front door the peasant<br>
suddenly stops arguing and turns to leave.<br><br>
The Anakim smiles. Humans are so gullible. Pay<br>
some
fool a shiny coin you took from another puny<br>
man
and they do your bidding. The Aankim easily<br>
scaled
the manor wall due to his height. Now that<br>
both
guards are in the same area he casts a spell and<br>
gestures the 100 feet toward them. Suddenly a sound<br>
sphere
of noise 30 feet in diameter hits the guards.<br>
the
infernal noise is so much they scream and fall to<br>
their
knees reaching for their ears. The Anakim smiles and<br>
moves
through the bushes.<br><br>
"They will be fine...eventually in a month and can hear<br>
again." The anakim speaks.<br><br>
Z'leyra twirls and sees a very large man with many muscles<br>
and
standing 8 foot 4 emerge from the darkness. On his<br>
hip is
a scimitar. He is wearing black ring mail. On his<br>
back
looks to be a hammer? But in his hands is a Glaive.<br>
The
being reaches into a vest pocket and pulls as shiny<br>
ball
out. He throws it the 80 feet toward Z'leyra.<br>
<br>
Before she can ducks the ball explodes. Green and<br>
white
lights flash in a strobe. But there is no damage.<br>
But
Z'leyra saw this once before in Donara. A mana bomb.<br>
Which
means she may not be able to cast magic for some<br>
time
at this point.<br><br>
The being calmly walks forward. "Now that we are on<br>
a
level field. It is time for you to die!
Prepare!"<br><br>
Z'leyra sees the long glaive and knows that either her<br>
staff
or sword will be more limited. Her staff would be<br>
fine
with range but less effective against this bulk of a man.<br>
The
sword should be fine. She drops her war staff and<br>
draws
her great sword. She stands ready as the Aankim<br>
quietly walks forward.<br><br>
Z'leyra swings her sword and misses. The Aankim being<br>
just
smiles. The anakim misses as well as he swings but<br>
maybe
he is just toying with Z'leyra. Above Corona wants<br>
to
help but might hit Z'leyra.<br><br>
The Aankim hits Z'leyra in the lower left abdomen doing<br>
1
point through her armor. The Aankim smiles at first<br>
blood. Z'leyra fails to hit in reaction.<br><br>
The being fails to hit Z'leyra. Z'leyra misses as well.<br><br>
The being hits Z'leyra again in the same area doing another<br>
point
past her armor. Z'leyra slices the sword up and side<br>
ways
to cut a chunk out of the being's right shoulder doing 9<br>
points
of damage.<br><br>
The Anakim fails to hit. But Z'leyra does hitting<br>
the
creature in the same place she was hit in the lower<br>
right
abdomen doing 15 points of damage. The Aanakim<br>
flinches and looks surprised.<br><br>
Both attack each other and fail to hit.<br><br>
The Anakim hits Z'leyra in her right arm forcing her to<br>
release her great sword and does 2 points of damage.<br><br>
Z'leyra dives to the side and yells for Corona.<br><br>
Corona fires at the chest of the Anakim. The<br>
eagle's magical eyes bore a deep hole in his chest<br>
doing
8 points of damage. But the being still remains<br>
standing.<br><br>
The being moves toward Z'leyra and stabs her in the<br>
upper
left chest but her armor protects her. Z'leyra<br>
now
with better angle and range fires a blast from<br>
her
helmet. The fire dart hits the being but seems<br>
to
bounce off doing nothing so his magical defense must<br>
be too
high.<br><br>
The Aanakim slams his glaive onto Z'leyra who rolls<br>
away
in time to miss a death blow. Z'leyra grabs her<br>
staff
and gets to her knees. The being had bent to<br>
take
out Z'leyra which gave Z'leyra time to aim her<br>
staff
and hit the being in his head doing 15 points of<br>
damage. Cheek and skull is crushed as the being collapses<br>
on the
ground dead.<br><br>
Z'leyra stands and ensures the being is dead then moves<br>
to
help her guards. They are both knocked out dazed from<br>
the
sonics. She figures the spell will end soon so turns<br>
back
to inspect the being. His similar and ring mail seem<br>
nothing special at all. She wonders why this being was here<br>
as he
is not a normal human at such height. But then again<br>
Raban
was this tall but he was half human. Was he hired to<br>
kill
or just some random encounter?<br><br>
The sound sphere ends and Z'leyra goes to help her guards.<br>
She
wakes one up and realizes he is deaf. Otherwise he is<br>
all
right with no damage. She figures the deafness is a<br>
result
of the spell so its not magical and can't be cured.<br>
An
hour later with the steward helping they try to explain<br>
the
guards can't work. But she will pay their wage since<br>
she
can't cure them. If the being is correct they will<br>
regain
hearing soon enough. But she has no choice but<br>
to
hire another set of guards until then. In fact the<br>
guards
can't until a mosth later on Marqi 13th.<br><br>
Z'leyra casts Orient Self and enchants 2 more of her<br>
purses
for capacity and armor.<br><br>
[Febris 6th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
Z'leyra casts Orient Self twice and then enchants the<br>
last
purse. Then casts enchantment to improve her<br>
wand
but does not realize one or both spells fail. She<br>
had
hoped to enhance gems but needs to learn more<br>
enhancement rites to do so. Had hoped to cast a Chaos<br>
purification zone around her manor but needs to learn that<br>
chaos
spell as well. Z'leyra does cast two protection vs<br>
Chaos
wards on her manor two doors. She does hear the guards<br>
comment that such magic won't help a evil thing form using<br>
a
window or just getting inside and avoid doors. Plus<br>
the
succubus attacked outside not at the doors. <br><br>
[Febris 7th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br>
[Time:
3:09 am]<br><br>
A freezing knight finds Z'leyra leaving the outhouse when<br>
she
encounters a small black freezing cat. The cat<br>
flees
when she gets near. But Z'leyra brings a bowl of warm<br>
milk
and food from the cook the cat might be able to eat.<br>
She
then heads to bed making a note to find the hole the<br>
cat
came in.<br><br>
[Febris 9th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
The next 3 days Z'leyra spends away from the school not<br>
teaching. The first 2 days she works on her damaged armor.<br>
It
will take 2 days and 3 hours to repair her armor back to<br>
its
full amount.<br><br>
[Time:
7:00 pm]<br><br>
Z'leyra does find a high end tavern to visit to try to<br>
make
some elite contacts. This has expensive food and wines.<br>
So it
should work. But in the end all groups seem to be<br>
tight
and hard to mingle with. Those who go to the bar<br>
she
tries to chit-chat but they are too distracted by<br>
their
own friends.<br><br>
Z'leyra heads home and spots 6 pigs on the road. They'd<br>
be a
nice meal. But probably escaped from some farm or<br>
house
so leaves them to the cold. <br><br>
[Febris 11th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
Z'leyra heads to town scour the lumber yards to get<br>
wood
to replace her lost wand thanks to fake-Kiet. She<br>
could
spend weeks finding the wand-best wood but decides<br>
to
pick any old wood. First place seems to have average<br>
wood
quality. The second seems better with less decay,<br>
rot and wood disease. The clerk asks what her husband<br>
wants with the wood and acts friendly. Then she spots<br>
the raw lumber uncut. "You don't want that's your husband<br>
wants cut wood little lady. Let me show you over here."<br>
But Z'leyra insists knowing cut wood would ruin any magical<br>
ability unless she did it. Z'leyra selects two long pieces<br>
and asks how much. The clerk confused by the strange lady<br>
stats a few copper. Z'leyra pays and asks if she can cut<br>
the wood with their saws. He laughs saying a little lady -<br>
if he says that once more she'll slap him - should not get<br>
near dangerous tools. Best to have her husband do it.<br><br>
Z'leyra is tempted to buy the saw space but would not<br>
want to pay this snob any more coin he doesn't deserve. So<br>
she leaves to her manor to try to cut it.<br><br>
It takes a few hours to cut the wood as she already knows<br>
wood working skills. At the end she ends up with two<br>
wand length pieces in case one fails. But she'll have<br>
to finish up next weekend.<br><br>
[Time:
9:54 am]<br><br>
As Z'leyra is exploring lumber yards she hears a scream<br>
from a
house. Riding close a woman says her husband is<br>
dying. Z'leyra dismounts and rushes inside. Z'leyra
finds<br>
the
man but no signs of injury. She rolls him over and<br>
sees
two bite marks on his neck. She has seen such like<br>
from
Count Ezam the vampire killed by Chion. She looks up<br>
and
around as its daylight he could still be in the house.<br>
Then
she sees the curtains blowing and rushes to the open<br>
window. She barely spots a small thing that looks like<br>
a bat
winging away. She yells for Corona to kill the<br>
thing
if he can. Then rushes to help to the man. Z'leyra<br>
notices blood still on his neck and this is a good sign. He<br>
hasn't
been fully drained so he can be not turned yet. Maybe<br>
the
woman came home and found the vampire? She tells her<br>
what
he needs like juices and time to recover. If he continues<br>
to be
weak he could try to get a blood transfusion but he should<br>
recover. She then rushes outside to look for Corona. He
is<br><br>
on the
roof grooming. But when asked he says he didn't hear<br>
her
yell and was chasing a dog that was chasing a small boy.<br>
So the
vampire must've escaped.<br><br>
[Febris 12th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br>
[Time:
1:23 am]<br>
<br>
Z'leyra is finishing up reading in her study losing<br>
track
of time when she sees a form walk the hall. She<br>
runs
after it and finds the form moving through the kitchen.<br>
Z'leyra speaks to it but it seems to ignore her. Then<br>
Z'leyra realizes this thing is a ghost based on its appearance<br>
and
cold in the usually warm manor. She watches as it passes<br>
through the kitchen wall and disappear. She looks out<br>
the
window but does not see it again. She wonders if the<br>
previous manor owner was that ghost or another ghost?<br><br>
[Time:
3:24 pm]<br><br>
Z'leyra is taking a break from the school outside and<br>
notices a old man walking on the road some 500 or so<br>
feet
away. The man in robes is walking with a large staff<br>
like
hers or maybe just a walking staff. She notices the<br>
man is
eyeing her but can't read his expression at this<br>
distance well. She considers going to talk to this man<br>
who
seems to be eyeing this place. She pops her head inside<br>
to her
student she'll be stepping away. But when she<br>
turns
around the man is gone. No where to be seen. She<br>
later
hears some time later from Mae of a similar encounter<br>
that
old man who looked like him helped her in a park. Z'leyra<br>
wonders if her reputation is getting higher for the good or<br>
for
the bad.<br><br>
That day at the school she has only 3 visitors but a young<br>
girl is
bought in with her merchant father. It seems she<br>
her leg has
been infected by a cut. Z'leyra treats the<br>
wound and is
forced to do healing magic on her.<br><br>
[Febris 13th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
The school only has 9 visitors today mostly only needing<br>
first
aid and tips on health. But mid afternoon a man<br>
walks
in with a nasty snake bite. Which confuses her as<br>
snakes
in winter are rare. But the man says it was one<br>
of his
own snakes. She mixes a potion to cure the poison<br>
and
then does healing magic. <br><br>
[Febris 14th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
Z'leyra casts a Cure Age spell today. She hopes the spell<br>
works as it
is impossible to know if it does. <br><br>
[Febris 15th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
Z'leyra meets with a knight that was interested in her magical<br>
buckler. She has had 3 others interested but once she<br>
mentions the price at 90 gold they become aloof and avoid any<br>
more
contact. She explains to the young knight that it is twice<br>
as
strong as a normal buckler. It is also half the weight
of<br>
a
normal buckler. The knight examines it and admires its
quality.<br>
But he
tries haggle it down. His best bid is only 55 gold and<br>
some
silver. But Z'leyra decides there may be better offers<br>
so
says no thanks at this time. <br><br>
[Febris 16th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
Z'leyra's weekend starts again and she works on her<br>
new
wand. She carves it with some artistic flair. It<br>
will
take her 2 days to complete both - backup included<br>
in
case first fails. <br><br>
Z'leyra casts Orient Self, Purification which fails and<br>
then
Knowledge to gain more Restoration knowledge.<br><br>
She then casts Mana Shield, Mana Sense, Mana Reading and a<br>
Balance Speed spells.<br><br>
[Febris 17th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br>
[Time:
9:16 pm]<br><br>
Z'leyra is interrupted by the steward requesting a<br>
person
to meet her. In the parlor she sees a young girl<br>
in her
20s sitting with timid body movements. She<br>
explains that she needs help that she ran away from<br>
a old
boyfriend and asks to stay here the night. He<br>
is a
bit violent. Z'leyra is unsure on this as why<br>
would
one night help her? Boyfriend could just find<br>
her
tomorrow. The girl explains that she will head to<br>
her
place in morning and pack up. She'll get a wagon to<br>
take
her to a town in the east where her family is. This<br>
seems
acceptable so gives her a room. But to make things<br>
secure
she asks a guard to stand in the hallway just<br>
in
case the girl is faking it. In the morning the guard<br>
offers
to talk her to her place to help pack up. Z'leyra<br>
agrees
and they depart in the morning.<br><br>
[Febris 18th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br>
[Time:
5:14 am]<br><br>
Z'leyra is up early due to the fireplace needing wood.<br>
Technically the steward is off duty so doesn't ask him<br>
to get
wood. She goes outside to get some wood and<br>
feels
the hairs on the back of her neck rise. She<br>
looks
into the darkness. She spots nothing then she<br>
spots
a flitter to the side. She watches and faint<br>
light
from a quarter moon shows a form. Without any<br>
armor
or gear she watches the form. It seems to just<br>
be
sitting on the edge of her property in a tree. As<br>
she
stares it seems familiar. Almost looking like<br>
Mae? Is Mae visiting? But the hair is golden not<br>
red. But she spots tiny wings. Z'leyra drops the wood<br>
ready
to dash inside to get her gear. Then she spots<br>
another form in another tree. There are 2 now? They<br>
are
just watching the house. Z'leyra heads inside to<br>
get
her armor and weapons. But as she exits the succubus<br>
are
gone. She warns the guards to be alert. But<br>
as
sunrise approaches she finds no attackers. Were<br>
they
watching her place based on the attack a couple<br>
months
ago with Arawn?<br><br>
[Time:
11:33 am]<br><br>
Z'leyra has finished carving her wand. Before she<br>
enchants it she decides to fly with Corona over the<br>
area. As they fly she spots a single camel trying to<br>
graze
on a nearby hill. A camel? In this area? She<br>
figures he must've escaped some market.<br><br>
That night Z'leyra enchants with a Shamanic trance the<br>
wand
and then makes a mana battery out of it. She hopes<br>
it
worked. <br><br>
[Febris 19th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br>
[Time:
5:$0 pm]<br><br>
Z'leyra tries to find a gambling hall to carouse with<br>
some
nobles if she can find any but it seems most clubs<br>
are
private and hard to get into. She decides to enter<br>
a
tavern and get some warm tea due to the extreme cold of<br>
the
evening. Inside she finds a man drinking ale and<br>
they
talk at the bar. Seems he is on a quest to find some<br>
item
for his love who needs said item so he'd marry him.<br>
The
adventurer doesn't say what item just that it is a<br>
huge
and difficult quest.<br><br>
[Febris 21st, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
Today at the school there is only 1 single patient<br>
who
needs first aid. Since the snow and ice is causing<br>
travel
issues many just don't want to came in. But around<br>
3pm or
so 3 do enter. They show signs of frost bite and<br>
it
seems they fell into a sink hole and had to escape before<br>
they
died. They lost 2 others in the escape. Sadly<br>
Z'leyra is forced to cut off 3 fingers of one man who<br>
has
too much signs of damage and no matter even regeneration<br>
could
help him. Z'leyra and the student helps to do<br>
some
first aid and Z'leyra does healing magic. <br><br>
[Time:
8:11 pm]<br><br>
After the sudden surge of patients who are still being<br>
watched in the school until tomorrow - Z'leyra rides<br>
home
to her manor. As she rides 6 men emerge from the<br>
bushes
and surround her. Two are carrying short bows.<br>
They
aim at Z'leyra and demand to relieve her of her<br>
coin
and gear.<br><br>
Six verus 1. Corona flew home due to the cold affecting<br>
him
too badly. A fair fight even for Z'leyra who has her<br>
full
gear on. She whispers to her horse to run when she<br>
dismounts and slowly dismounts. She pretends to draw<br>
out
her money pouch and taps the horse to flee. It<br>
rushes
off and this distracts the bandits to miss<br>
her
drawing her sword.<br><br>
She releases a fire dart from her helmet and fries<br>
one of
the bowmen. Then charges the other with<br>
her
sword. The bowmen fires a arrow and impacts on<br>
her
armor but bounces off. She slices the guard from<br>
left
to right in his chest killing the bandit.<br><br>
Now 4 to 1 she turns to see the others charge. Three<br>
of the
bandits hit but her armor protects against the<br>
blows.<br><br>
She stabs another bandit killing him.<br><br>
One bandit hits with his sword but doesn't penetrate her<br>
armor. But one bandit does hit with his sword and impales<br>
deep
into her left ribs doing 4 points of damage.<br>
<br>
Z'leyra fails to hit one of the 3 bandits.<br><br>
One of the bandits hits but fails to penetrate armor.<br><br>
Z'leyra stabs another bandit in the side doing the damage<br>
to
kill the man.<br><br>
At this point the last 2 bandits decide to leave<br>
having
lost half their party. They run as fast as<br>
they
can. Z'leyra considers frying one or two. But<br>
while
defending herself is legal. Firing on a fleeing<br>
enemy
might be considered murder. <br>
<br>
Her horse returns and she does a side trip to report<br>
the
incident to a barracks. Almost 45 minutes they<br>
finally release her to head home.<br><br>
[Febris 23rd, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
Z'leyra heads to town not teaching these next 3 days.<br>
She
spends some time shopping for a tailor that can teach<br>
her
the skill. She already had some previous experience but<br>
needs
to complete that training. She finds a tailor and<br>
he
agrees (the 4th one that day to actually agree). The<br>
tailor
brings a book with pictures to help teach. <br><br>
[Febris 24th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br>
[Time:
10:10 pm]<br><br>
Z'leyra was invited by the merchant to his club.<br>
The
same merchant who saved his daughter recently.<br>
There
she finds some low level nobles of knight and<br>
land
owner level. She carouses but it seems no one<br>
needs
any particular items. The merchant quietly says<br>
that
they just don't trust her. Once word gets out maybe<br>
things
will improve.<br><br>
As Z'leyra exits to get her horse she enters the alley<br>
and
notices a man being accosted by a flying beast. It<br>
looks
like a terrestial demon? The demon is trying to claw<br>
at the
man as the man lies in a fetal position behind a<br>
large
crate. Z'leyra yells out and the demon looks<br>
up. It flies toward her eager for things to hurt.<br><br>
Z'leyra activates her helmet and releases a fire dart<br>
that
flies the demon to ash before it makes 3 feet closer. <br><br>
She helps the man up and realizes its a son of a Baron<br>
who
has a barony far to the south on the edge of Farseeker's<br>
fort
territory. The son is so grateful he promises that<br>
he'll
try to see what his father needs for items.<br><br>
Z'leyra casts another Cure Age spell today. <br><br>
[Febris 25th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
Z'leyra finally learns the clothier skill but asks the<br>
tailor
to remain to help her making uniforms with the<br>
skill. The tailor sketches out designs after several<br>
denied
sets and they being to work on a rough uniform.<br>
By the
end of the afternoon Z'leyra has enough idea how<br>
to
proceed.<br><br>
Once Z'leyra explains her intentions the teacher explains it<br>
will
take more time than though. She'd become a Weaver this<br>
weekend but tailor and designer has to be learned next. So<br>
this
will take a few more weeks. <br><br>
[Febris 27th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br>
[Time:
1:33 pm]<br><br>
At the school the last 2 days have been dismal with no<br>
visitors. But Z'leyra notices a single mule trying to<br>
graze
outside in the snow. He has a pack so it must've<br>
escaped its owner. It seems content and she decides<br>
not to
bother it.<br><br>
[Febris 28th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
Z'leyra casts Orient Self, Purification and a Knowledge spell<br>
to
gain more Restoration info. She then casts a Mana
Shield,<br>
Mana
sensing spell which fails, Mana reading and a Balance<br>
Speed
spell.<br><br>
[Marqi
2nd-4th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
Z'leyra spends 3 more days working with her clothier teacher<br>
to
become a designer.<br><br>
[Marqi
6th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br>
[Time:
5:41 am]<br><br>
Z'leyra casts a Cure Age spell.<br><br>
Z'leyra exits the outhouse on a cold night and hears flapping<br>
noises. She looks up and sees the white of Corona's skin against<br>
the
inky black of night. He is dodging and weaving for some
reason.<br>
Then
Z'leyra notices a dozen or so flying things around him<br>
trying
to attack. A flash is seen and a blast form Corona's<br>
eyes
as he tries to take one down but misses. There are just too<br>
many. <br><br>
Suddenly 5 of the Vampire Bats latch on and begin<br>
to
drink blood. One attaches directly behind his<br>
neck
and the eagle screeches in pain. Almost immediately<br>
half
of his blood is drunk. Corona begins to waver and<br>
falter.<br><br>
Z'leyra realizes he must've distracted the bats to<br>
save
her. But in doing so she could lose yet a second<br>
eagle
and a very special one. <br><br>
In the span of just 4 seconds it all comes to pass.<br>
Z'leyra considers flying up and helping but they'd<br>
swarm
her. But as Corona sees his death coming he<br>
realizes what he has to do. He stops.<br><br>
The other 9 vampire bats attach easily and Z'leyra<br>
yells
out and begins to remove clothing so she can<br>
change. But with 14 vampire bats attached they drink<br>
fat
like river piranha taking a cow apart in seconds.<br>
Corona
falls. The bats knowing death has come release<br>
and
fly away with sated bellies.<br><br>
Z'leyra sees Corona fall and leaps into action to<br>
move
to try to catch him. With agile hands she catches<br>
the
limp bird. She finds him dead and a lump in her<br>
chest. Clearly drained of blood no magic can help to<br>
fix
this. If only Arawn was here. A priest might be<br>
able
to help by regrowth or regenerating which she does<br>
not
know. Then she half naked remembers a priest in<br>
her
survey of local healers. He has to know of these<br>
spells. Without hesitation and without wanting to<br>
waste
time she images the place in her mind and<br>
casts
a teleport spot.<br><br>
She appears on the street and at least it is so early<br>
that
no one is here. She runs to the priest's door<br>
which
Arawn talked about once. What was his name? She<br>
bangs
on the door. A suprised priest in old night robes<br>
appears a bit upset at the early call. Then he sees a<br>
topless Z'leyra and the bird. Z'leyra pleads for help.<br><br>
The priest agrees though skeptical. He explains he and<br>
she
must coordinate spells together. He must recall that<br>
she is
also a healer. She must heal his body while he<br>
heals
his soul and life force as well as try to regenerate<br>
the
eagle's blood.<br><br>
Both begin to cast the spells. Gestures and magical<br>
blessings with prayers. At the end Z'leyra sees his<br>
bite
wounds close up but there is no movement. The<br>
priest
looks to her that she must restart his heart.<br>
But
doing so on a bird? She concentrates as she traces<br>
the
ribs and tries to recall herself being a bird and<br>
where
the parts are inside. Then she begins chest<br>
compressions. By now 3 minutes have passes since brain<br>
death.<br><br>
There is always resurrection if she can find Chion or<br>
Cetric. But as Z'leyra gives the breath of life to<br>
Corona
suddenly a blast shoots out and hits the ceiling.<br>
the
priest jumps back startled. Corona begins to stir<br>
and
confused where he is he realizes he is inside a place<br>
now
and looks around. Z'leyra asks questions and the<br>
bird
seems all there so far. But he reports he is still weak.<br>
Which
may take time.<br><br>
Z'leyra apologizes for the ceiling damage and says she<br>
will
pay for damage and services. She thanks the priest<br>
and
starts to leave. But the priest tells her to wait.<br>
Then
comes out with a blanket. At least to wear around<br>
her
naked top half.<br><br>
Z'leyra carries Corona back home.<br><br>
[Marqi
8th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
At the school the week has been slow up till today. With only<br>
5
patients the last 2 days. Today they see 10 with 5 of those<br>
needing magical healings. <br><br>
[Time:
3:56 pm]<br><br>
Z'leyra is taking a break from the school outside to<br>
relax. In the distance a mile or two she notices a large<br>
group
maybe 80=100 men at a farm. They are building a<br>
barn. She is amazed how farmer community works so fast<br>
to
rebuild such things. That group could be done with<br>
a new
barn in half a day.<br><br>
[Time:
6:42 pm]<br><br>
Z'leyra is heading home when she spots 1 pure snow white cat<br>
and a
brown cat chasing each other. The brown seems to be<br>
the
male and the white cat seems to not want any love tonight.<br>
As she
rides away she hears the howl of a cat. Either the<br>
brown
cat won his quarry or the white cat hurt him badly.<br><br>
[Marqi
9th-11th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
Z'leyra spends these 3 days learning under the Clothier<br>
teacher.<br><br>
A merchant visits Z'leyra at her manor tonight and<br>
asks
to see the magical buckler. She met with the merchant<br>
at a
social club 2 days ago. Seems he wants to impress<br>
a
Baron for his son who is in the military. OF course the<br>
Baron
happens to own 4 merchant ships the merchant wants to<br>
deal
with doing trade contracts. Z'leyra rather meet with<br>
the
Baron but a low level merchant will have to do. The<br>
merchant offers 90 gold. He gives her the voucher for<br>
the
money lender to get her gold. The next day the<br>
moneylender confirms it and she drops the buckler at the<br>
merchant's fine glass shop. <br><br>
[Time:
1:10 pm]<br><br>
A patient reports there are sheep outside. Z'leyra checks<br>
and
sure enough a small herd. A ram and 3 females and 10<br>
lambs. They are on the edge of her property. The
patients<br>
threatens to get one for dinner but Z'leyra reminds him that<br>
poaching is against the law. They must be escaped animals<br>
from a
nearby farm. She is sure a shephard will be around to<br>
fetch
them soon enough.<br><br>
[Marqi
10th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br>
[Time:
10:19 pm]<br><br>
Z'leyra is in her office when she hears laughing faintly<br>
from
the front gate. She goes to the window and notices<br>
the
guards laughing at a single cattle. She shakes her<br>
head
why does she attract all these escaped wild animals?<br><br>
[Marqi
11th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br>
[Time:
4:09 pm]<br><br>
Heading home from a social club, Z'leyra notices a ram and<br>
a
female sheep on the street grazing. She wonders if this<br>
is
part of the herd she saw the other day.<br><br>
[Marqi
12th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
Another 4 days at the school waiting for patients. While<br>
the
entire week the school only sees 14 visitors. Today<br>
is the
only day that magical healing is done. It is done<br>
on two
patients. <br><br>
Today Z'leyra casts Orient Self, Purification and a<br>
Knowledge spell to gain Restoration. She then casts Mana<br>
Shield, mana sense, mana reading and a Balance Speed spell.<br><br>
[Marqi
16th-18th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br><br>
This is the last 3 days Z'leyra learns under the clothier<br>
teacher. Hopefully next weekend she can work on her new<br>
uniforms for her guards unless some wild new adventure comes<br>
up in
its place.<br><br>
Z'leyra casts another Cure Age spell.<br><br>
[Marqi
17th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br>
[Time:
7:10 pm]<br><br>
Z'leyra is riding back from Kaylle's library when she spots<br>
a
silver-gray fox running down a alley. The color is<br>
quite
strange but a fox in a city is not so much. Since<br>
she is
late for dinner she heads home. Later she hears<br>
some
poor homeless man was found dead near those streets.<br>
She
later learns from Mae weeks later that fox may have been<br>
what
is called a Kimiho.<br><br>
[Marqi
18th, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br>
[Time:
12:47 pm]<br><br>
Behind the clothier's teacher's shop are light woods. There<br>
outside in the back eating her lunch she sees a boar rush out <br>
of the
bush toward her. It must smell her food. She with<br>
ease
stands and avoids the tusked animal. But as she swings<br>
the
staff she hits it in the back. It yelps in pain and<br>
then
decides enough is enough and flees back into the bushes.<br><br>
[Marqi
22nd, 1636TH - sivas, Marentia]<br>
[Time:
5:04 pm]<br><br>
It is almost closing time for Z'leyra at the school.<br>
It has
been a slow week. In the last 3 days there have<br>
only
been 5 patients and none needed magical healing.<br>
She
even dreams of some wild adventure soon. But as she<br>
is
storing up supplies she notices cats outside. There<br>
is an
adult female and 3 kittens. Since she is a bit bored<br>
she
decides to bring them inside for a check up.<br><br>
Z'leyra spends some time flying with Corona. After his<br>
death
- or maybe near death - the bird has rested and<br>
recovered. As far as Z'leyra can tell there is no change<br>
to the
eagle. She asks him what he thinks of a time travel<br>
spell
to go back and maybe redo a few things or use the<br>
time
for other things.<br><br>
Assuming no big adventure pops up soon Z'leyra plans to<br>
make
and enchant uniforms, sheaths, armor and weapons for<br>
the
manor guards. This will take time and at this point ran<br>
out of
time doing so. There is always next week. <br><br>
Corona tilts his head and a glint in his eye shows that<br>
perplexed look he always does. Sometimes it is confusion<br>
or
hesitation. But today Corona explains time travel is very<br>
dangerous. He points to warning his father and that the<br>
event
still occurred but in a different way. Z'leyra sits back<br>
a bit
shocked. How could the eagle know this since the entire<br>
party's minds were changed. Only Z'leyra and the guardian knew<br>
of the
change in history. If Corona could grin he would but<br>
simply
explains he is aware at various levels. He does not<br>
explain details. He simply states it is not time for that.
Maybe<br>
later. He explains that you go back in time you better
have<br>
a good
reason. That each ripple created after will not affect<br>
everything else. In the end it is your decision. But be
prepared<br>
for
any consequences it may cause. Even going back 2 minutes to<br>
redo a
combat to good results could mean disaster. What if<br>
that
saved man becomes dictator and the bad men killed were<br>
actually on the brink of a great medical cure? Lady Varo<br>
explained that the Fates should be accepted not contorted.<br><br>
That night she sits in her office staring at the fireplace<br>
considering her future. Her school has started but she needs<br>
income. She has had 9 different times socializing with<br>
petty
nobles. The highest she has met was a count. Though<br>
she
tried not one request to make items for them was made.<br>
Her
steward did warn it may take time. She needs to talk to<br>
Unali
to see how easily she can smooze with the elite<br>
at
Maren City and the palace. Course having a friend like<br>
Duke
Aren does help. Maybe she can contact the Duke<br>
and
ask him if others have requests. Granted Sivas is not the<br>
hot
bed for rich and powerful other than the merchants. The<br>
merchants are numerous here with shipping and trade. But the<br>
true
elite is in the north it seems. She will have to consider<br>
a new
strategy.<br><br>
She considers her last 2 months of income from selling<br>
her
buckler at 90 gold as well as her 5 purses. She was<br>
asking
25 gold for each purse. But could've gotten 36<br>
gold.
For her purses she had 12 chances at the market to<br>
sell
them. She is able to sell each one for 28.8, 26,<br>
25.2
each a slight discount. But for 2 she is able to<br>
get a
nice profit at 34 and a poor lady who was willing<br>
to pay
55.6 gold. For 5 purses she did well making 169<br>
gold. So 250 gold should be enough for some more buildings<br>
for
sure.<br><br>

Update....Next ...<br><br>
GM: My alignment
is off. Wow. Just noticed that. Darn.<br>
Z's IBT took a full 2 weeks. Mainly due to starting<br>
late and losing around 48 hours of lost possible work<br>
time. But its out now. :) Next is Fremea's when<br>
Tobie sends his. Sadly he started it but had a pc crash<br>
so lost all what he did. So having to doit all over.<br>
So that may delay things. But I need to work on Z'ls<br>
sheet this week and that'll take 2-3 days. Sadly this<br>
is my LAST 3 day week. Today was my only Saturday and<br>
i spent it not at a rpg game sessoin as hoped but doing<br>
the IBT final edits. I had hoped to be far more ahead by<br>
now but sadly not. I can only do so much though with<br>
delays. Sadly the last 4 months I've not had time for<br>
any vacation since I've been doing IBT. Oh well. Just<br>
m luck. :) Monday is my last day off this year until<br>
September 2018. So i have 8 months of 5 day weeks.<br>
So we'll be going back to the normal Monday/Friday<br>
schedules. Assuming i have time to do Friday updates.<br>
So we'll see if can start 1/1. But with only 5 days<br>
off and work nights to do what typically taking 2 weeks<br>
chances...sigh. I just am OC I like round easy numbers<br>
like 1/1. :) But oh well. I can only do so much.<br>
So hopefully next month we'll start adventure. <br><br>
