Log

[Eyes of the Thirteen, Meraud's Shrine]
Carved alexandrite-dusted wolf prints continue their trek over a black onyx platform, making their way towards a polished granite altar set at the darkened far end. On either side of the dome are black steel braziers that are lit with eerie purple flames, setting a surreal ambience in the room. The lighting caresses its way across the four intricate carvings lined on either side of the tracks set into the platform. You also see a black marble altar inlaid with silver lightning bolts, a polished black granite archway and a black lacquered altar with hints of cinnabar and gold leaf.

Leilanie whispers something to Ectheleon.

Gragnel nods at Pradya, obviously agreeing with her views.

Pradya melodiously says, "As we all know, Firulf carries a staff, one that casts lightning. Lightning can be dark as in the pain it causes or light for when it shows us our way. We shall carry the staff in concert, aiding the endeavor with our praises. With Truffenyi as his strength and our prayers, the answers will come. Let us pray."

Unaka says to Crobin, "What? Sorry, couldn't hear. Oh, sorry, gotta be quiet and listen."

Pradya recites:

   "We gather in your name, Firulf 

    The brightening way to Meraud 

    We ask your aid in our search 

    Not for our selfish needs 

    But that of the world itself"

Madigan takes a sip of his coffee.

Unaka's halo flares into existence, blinding you with a golden flash! As the haze dissipates, you find yourself observing a robed man as he stretches his arms skyward. Looking up, you watch in fascination as the stars themselves begin to bend and stir, flowing in a large swirling spiral, mirroring the man as he slowly turns his arms overhead. As you gaze at the moving stars, you begin to notice crackles of stirring lightning, a jittering web churning in the heavens. The man continues to stir the cosmos, sweat beading on his brow, weaving lightning and stars into a blinding tapestry which draws together and solidifies. He clenches his fists and pulls down with a mighty heave, and you are blinded and deafened as a thunderous column of writhing electricity tears the sky in half. A shimmering after-image of a mighty owl covered in lightning-green feathers, wings outstretched, burns into your eyes, and the man stands proud, eyes ablaze. The vision fades.

(Medikaus only)
As Unaka's large hand touches your forehead, your vision is overtaken by a golden flash! As the haze dissipates, you find yourself gazing out over a sprawling landscape, largely untouched but dotted by the fires of mortals. A feeling of warmth and contentment settles in you. Your eye catches on something moving on the distant horizon, and you lean forward, watching intently. You slowly pick out three enormous forms lumbering through the sky, blurred into the contours of the clouds. A flashing line appears briefly, a window into a foreign field of stars. You watch for what feels like ages, the skies racing with changing clouds and the landscape bending below with the flow of time and mortal movement, but the beings remain distant to you, their movements inscrutable. Eventually, you turn your gaze fondly back to the clusters of fires, tiny lights flickering and glowing far below. The vision ends.

Leilanie smiles at Vythlak.

Gragnel asks Vythlak, "Can you believe that I didn't bring any at all? Like... Who am I?"

Karthor stands near Unaka.

Amabalis leans on Necho.

Unaka reaches out and touches Karthor, and there is a brief golden flash! Karthor appears dazed for a moment, and then blinks in surprise!

(Karthor only)
As Unaka's large hand touches your forehead, your vision is overtaken by a golden flash! As the haze dissipates, you find yourself walking, walking endlessly, your body aching with the deep fatigue that comes with constant movement. Time shifts and blurs, and you've visited countless biomes, from frigid ice caps to forests and jungles teeming with life. In almost all of them, you found mortals, sheltering themselves in rocky caves, within portable hide tents, or among the forest trees. Lush life blooms in gathering places, burgeoning magic at the fingertips of tribal peoples. Glancing up, you see distant, giant forms in the sky, barely visible as a blurred haze against the clouds. You hear the trees sigh gently around you, feel the twisting surge of their growth, and watch the people pluck their flowers. You give a slight nod.

You blink and leaps are made in technology and magic, waterwheels turning and hammers singing. Life and civilization are carved in different ways, but no less complex and beautiful. Magic flows, windmills catch the wind, cities are built. In the sky, clouds blow past, and you see the faint blur, along with a brief line of undulating waves. You nod again, then continue on with your walking. The vision ends.

Necho leans on Amabalis.

Souv gazes up in wonder, his jaw very slack and a bit of drool leaking from it, then grabs at empty air and seems very disappointed.

(Crobin watches Unaka and lookiing around staying close by watching as the wounds form on her)

Karthor says, "Hmm."

(Mazilyn only)
As Unaka's large hand touches your forehead, your vision is overtaken by a golden flash! As the haze dissipates, you find yourself viewing a landscape teeming with blossoming cities, each unique and beautiful, from shimmering towers built atop a lake to a stepped city within a volcanic crater to a thick-walled desert haven teeming with shops. Suddenly, your eye is drawn to a crack in the ground, the crevice revealing a crawling vine, which shoots upward and across the ground, questing and splitting into many smaller tendrils. Concern rises in you, and you take a step forward to investigate. With a jolt, you see cracks appearing everywhere, snaking through each of the beautiful cities, searching vines breaking and tearing without concern for the carefully laid cobblestones, the masterfully domed buildings, or the shivering and huddling people.

Horror clutches you, then rage. Your voice cracks with a roar of terrible fury, and you throw your head back. In the sky above you are three pairs of eyes with brightly colored pupils, staring down at you. The vision ends.

Silver feathers inlaid in the crystal dapple the surface of a polished granite altar with tiny shadows that almost blend into the stone's already mottled surface. Rising from the altar's center is an ornately carved triptych statue crafted so seamlessly as to appear an extension of the same stone of the altar.

Unaka reaches out and touches Aerilia, and there is a brief golden flash! Aerilia appears dazed for a moment, and then blinks in surprise!

(Aerilia only)
As Unaka's large hand touches your forehead, your vision is overtaken by a golden flash! As the haze dissipates, you find yourself tumbling, falling into the hold of what appears to be a gigantic piece of cloth. Far above you, you can spot dozens of weavers at its edge, each working a loom. Looking down, you see that the portion you are sitting on is largely one color, a pure white, but above you the intensely focused weavers are incorporating a variety of colors, creating a wild and chaotic rainbow. One weaver cries out suddenly in pain, and you see that the loom has burst into a deadly array of splinters, shredding her hand. The others take no note, continuing furiously to ply their craft. Hope and urgency both spring to life within you, and you begin to climb up, heading toward the weavers, fistfuls of the colorful cloth helping to pull you upward. The vision fades.

Unaka winces and sways unsteadily, pressing her large palms into her eyes. Her halo flickers, as if caught in a strong wind, and when she drops her hands, you can see a wide bruise over her face.

Angel tosses a tiny candy Sraxaec into her mouth and chews.

   "*A Prayer to Truffenyi*"

    by Sir Steelake Vrochren

Angel begins to pray.

Mazilyn reads:

   "Come to me, my Kinsman, the Light, my Guide.

    Come to me, that I may come to you.

    Since I went forth into the darkness

    I was given water to drink, food to nourish my spirit.

Vythlak gets some deep red wine from inside his burlap bag.

   "I am in the midst of my enemies, the beasts surround me.

    They burned in their wrath, they rose up against me.

    Matter and her sons divided me up amongst them,

    They burnt me in their fire,

    They sewed me in filthy skins,

    They heaped memories upon me,

    They gave me a bitter likeness.

Vythlak pours some of his wine onto the altar. Oddly, the liquid seems to turn into a pale mist as it touches the altar. Vythlak takes a deep, long breath, and sighs.

Vythlak looks up and sighs, smiling.

Ryeka kneels down.

Mazilyn continues:

   "The strangers with whom I mixed knew me not.

    They desired to keep me with them, for I was life to them.

    Come to me, my Kinsman, the Light, my Guide!

(Crobin helps Unaka stand up fully and pats her back)

   "I am the life of the world.

    I am the milk that is in all trees.

    Lo, in the darkness I have subdued;  Lo, the fire of the fountains

    I have extinguished, as the sun receives the refined part of life.

Crobin says, "If you are to keep pushiing...then breath."

Ryeka gets an alder stick from inside her spidersilk backpack.

   "O soul, raise your eyes to the height

      And contemplate your bonds,

    Lo, your Fathers are calling you!

    Now go aboard the Ship of Light,

      And receive your garland of glory.

    Your kingdom awaits,

      And rejoice with all the Aeons."

(Ectheleon only)
As Unaka's large hand touches your forehead, your vision is overtaken by a golden flash! As the haze dissipates, you see a massive waterfall crashing down in front of you, its water pure and clear, the roar of its passage overwhelming. Looking up, near the top you spy several workers busily adjusting some kind of dam, tugging at support lines, until suddenly, the dam gives way! Brilliant red water bursts forth, mixing into the clear stream, and the workers leap back and out of the way. With a start, you notice several other dams bursting in the same way, allowing streams of blue, gold, and white water to join the flow. Exultant, you rush forward, leaping through the spray and forming your arms into a dive, pointing yourself down toward the pool below. Before you reach the water, the vision ends.
