Zynell/Logs/Holy Sorcery Party

Holy Sorcery Party:Phelim

[Phelim's Shrine, Exterior]

The pebbled path encircles a small shrine of dark marble erected within a tiny clearing. Pale petals are strewn before the open archway, its surface polished so that the silvered veins within the ebon-hued stone glint even in the slightest remaining light. Songbirds chirp and chitter all around, though they remain unseen within the shadowed branches of the surrounding trees. You also see a rotund temple rat, a shaggy husky puppy and a small shrine.

Also here: Viknal, Wind's Serenade Pyppa, Faebound Leilanie, Terize, Ectheleon, Gypsy Amabalis, Pradya, Veri Tervia Zionna, Outrider Chrysagon who is shining with a dark golden glow, Delinquent Daring, Enelne's Champion Nawain who is kneeling, Elemental Aegis Tekhelet who is sheathed in an aura of crackling electricity, Aerilia, Lord Knight Hebion, Umptiskrunk, Reverend Gragnel, Shavay, Fearless Crobin, Desert Blossom Zersha who is enveloped in a cloud of iridescent glitter, Jade Lotus Illiahanna, Bacon Bandit Malorna, Wind Listener Sceth, Valta Varna Mistanna, Pure Spirit Mazilyn and Crypt Guardian Relay.

You exclaim, "Hello!"

Zionna says, "Made me think of you."

You exclaim, "And there rings the 8th bell!"

You exclaim, "Welcome to our Holy Sorcery Party!"

Defender of the Faith Unaka just arrived.

You say, "As we have a semi captive audience."

You say, "Main triage for drake invasions will be Taelbert s Bar."

Unaka says, "Hey everyone."

You say, "I will repeat......."

You say, "Main triage for drake invasions will be Taelbert s Bar."

You grin mischievously.

You say, "A brief recounting of recent events that lead to our hosting this event."

Chrysagon says, "Harsh sent the word out."

You say, "Asilud decided to come back and do his usual taunting with a bunch of drakes, just at a little bigger scale. He is a reminder of the battle above us and what is to come. We must prepare as best we can."

You say, "Liraxes stated that Balance and the immortals seem to be aligned on the desired outcome of the battle."

Unaka fixes you with a heavy, ponderous stare.

You say, "It proceeded to test the updates to the machine. The machine tore a portion of the sky, and the constellation of the Heart can be once again seen."

You say to Unaka, "It was a whole thing, someone else can fill you in."

You giggle.

You say, "The Heart is a symbol of love, marriage, and resembles a member of the Olvi race."

Unaka nods to you.

You say, "This is, as Avrenka pointed out during the test, one of the first constellations that every moon mage novice is taught to see."

You say, "The return of some of our stars is why we are in this specific location."

Gragnel says to Unaka, "Oh, hey, its me. Gragnel. Down here."

Gragnel lays his hand on Unaka's arm.

Unaka flashes a wide grin at Gragnel.

You say, "Most of you know I am a Priestess of Damaris."

You absentmindedly run your fingers across the back of your black panther and it seems to stir in response to your touch.

Unaka exclaims to Gragnel, "Hey down there!"

Unaka pats Gragnel on the back.

Zionna smiles at you, revealing the dimples in her cheeks.

You say, "But Phelim is the immortal who put stars in the sky. It seemed fitting that we acknowledge the return of his work. Plus, this area is non justice and perfect for sorcerous casting without alarming the townsfolk."

Gragnel wobbles, looking a bit faint.

You grin mischievously.

Echosong giggles.

Aerilia smiles.

You say, "But do try not to explode."

Gragnel says to Mistanna, "Toldja it was a good class."

You shrug.

Dorthaf flashes a wide grin.

You say, "Some of you may be wondering why we are doing a Holy Sorcery party, and what that even means."

Pyppa chuckles at you!

Zionna grins, revealing her dimples.

Mistanna flashes a quick grin at Gragnel.

Crobin says, "Taking all the fun out of this."

Crobin frowns at you.

You wink at Crobin.

Gragnel snickers at Crobin.

You say, "Firstly, the immortals have been clear on their desire for us to cast sorcery."

Chrysagon says, "Right."

You say, "Secondly, devotional acts, gatherings, and gestures help solidify the immortal s foothold in this plane."

Tekhelet nods to you.

Gragnel nods at you, obviously agreeing with your views.

You say, "This does not mean you have to get a gazillion favors, but a heartfelt prayer here, an acknowledgement there, respect and reverence for our immortals can help improve their presence here."

Gragnel nods at you, obviously agreeing with your views.

Unaka nods at you, obviously agreeing with your views.

You say, "Some of still have a gazillion favors, but that does not have to be you."

You giggle.

You playfully tilt your ears in opposite directions.

Allye grins at you.

Leilanie smiles.

You say, "Thirdly, Holy mana does not seem to be something the heralds are using or interested in."

You say, "They did not imprison a holy caster, nor has there been holy magic in their areas. Thusly the sorcery discussions have focused mostly on lunar, elemental, and life magics."

Zersha nibbles her lip thoughtfully.

Daring brushes one ear with her hand, grooming it absentmindedly.

Chrysagon says, "Hmm."

You say, "In my theological opinion this may have something to do with paladin and cleric magics being directly tied to entities that are not of this plane."

Gragnel ponders.

You say, "Paladins with their souls and whatever the bulwark is doing, and clerics with our ties to our immortals."

Viknal smirks to himself.

You say, "Whereas other magics may interact with other planes, we can find the stars, life, and elements within this plane. But the divine does not necessarily start here."

Allye grins at Viknal.

Chrysagon says, "Well i might be useful here."

Relay says, "I will say, some of you DO need more favors."

You nod at Relay, in complete agreement with his views.

Gragnel nods at Relay, obviously agreeing with his views.

Pyppa ponders.

Unaka chuckles.

Gragnel chuckles.

You say, "My proposal for this party is that those of you who do not cast holy as native magic, pick up a holy spell and cast it as your sorcery."

Ectheleon nods at Relay, obviously agreeing with his views.

Vythlak grins.

You say, "I have a few scrolls if you need."

You say, "For those of us who cast holy magic regularly, now would be a good time to do our other devotionals, our communes and research wild magic."

Crobin says, "Ready to cast sorcery."

(Crobin acts like he knows magic)

Gragnel gestures at Crobin.

Allye giggles at Crobin.

Zersha grins at Crobin, her dimples flashing into view.

Pyppa grins at Crobin.

You say, "For those of you who do not have a native mana, please consider offering something to the immortals."

Pyppa gestures at Crobin.

Relay observes Crobin with fascination.

You ask, "Does anyone need a holy spell scroll to cast as sorcery?"

Ectheleon laughs!

Relay says, "You cant even......"

Illiahanna asks you, "Booze ok?"

Relay shakes his head.

You nod to Illiahanna.

Illiahanna grins at you.

You say, "Booze is always good."

Unaka says, "I'll be right back."

Gragnel says to Illiahanna, "All the gods love wine. It's a fact."

Allye asks, "Will Uncurse work okay?"

You say, "Aye uncurse does."

Allye nods.

Shavay says, "I've got a few copies of Vigil, if anyone wants to sorc it up."

You say, "While we are casting and communing, i would like to invite some of my fellow clerics to say a few words about the immortals."

(Crobin weaves his arms around and fingers dancing as he mumbles under his breath)

Miskton says, "I could use a holy magic scroll of some sort, in order to be able to contribute."

Unaka asks you, "So... if we're holy already, don't cast, but do other things?"

You say, "After a few prayers we will invite everyone else to add their words, songs, and other praises."

You say, "I would like you to give your attention, no, not to Gragnel yet ."

You glance at Gragnel, a male Human.

Gragnel snorts, loudly.

You nod to Unaka.

You say, "Aye, you can cast or you can do sorcery or commune with the immortals."

You nod to Unaka.

Raknarosh says, "I didn't know there would be holy spells handed out to help. I had a trader friend who didn't come cause she didn't have a holy spell."

You say, "We are graced with the presence of a cleric of Phelim."

You say, "Allow me to introduce you to Phelim Priest Vythlak."

You gesture at Vythlak.

Raising her starlight champagne to Vythlak, Leilanie gives him a toast.

Gragnel nods to Vythlak.

Miskton nods politely to Vythlak.

Ectheleon nods to Vythlak.

Relay says, "Tell your friend they are welcome."

Vythlak softly says, "Thank you Zyn."

Vythlak smiles at you.

Vythlak says, "If you do not have a feather please GET FEATHER FROM BACKPACK now. I will give everyone a moment in case you haven't yet."

Unaka nods to Vythlak.

Vythlak points at a rugged silver backpack on the ground.

Unaka fixes Vythlak with a heavy, ponderous stare.

Zionna beams!

Vythlak

Vythlak confidently says, "Welcome everyone. It is a pleasure to be here this fine day. Before I begin, I would ask you to please RAISE MY FEATHER to call down the blessings of Phelim upon our activities today."

Tekhelet touches a snuffed altar candle with a glowing finger, and it quickly catches fire.

You bow your head and say in a hushed voice, "Damaris, guard and protect the children this night."

Vythlak recites:

"While all the gods have their own worlds,
only Elanthia is inhabited with the creatures
they find the most amusing and inspiring:
mortals. "

(Crobin moves around behind Unaka as he passes slowly)

Vythlak inhales a great swallow of air.

Vythlak slowly empties his lungs.

Vythlak recites:

"Yes, mortals are inspiring to the gods, just as they inspire us.
As Priestess Zynell said earlier, the wellspring of Holy magic is fundamentally different magic,
but just as we clerics draw upon the gods,
remember that the mechanics of Lunar magic are set in motion by the stars and moons set in the sky by Phelim."

Unaka nods to Crobin.

Nawain whispers a prayer from her mouth into the wind, certain it will reach Enelne's ear.

(Crobin continues to move around passing by Sothios and stops for a few moments)

Vythlak recites:

"We are all here today in the shrine of Phelim,
the dreamer,
he who cast the stars in the sky,
he who set the World Dragon to sleep."

Please note that this may take a moment or so for each of you to make your offering one at a time and reflect upon it. Then follow me OUT and we will have a moment of silence and reflection."

Aerilia holds a dark blue nightingale feather high into the air for all to see.

[Phelim's Shrine, Interior]

Motes of dust sparkle in the warm air of this tiny shrine, the polished pebble floor glittering like diamonds in the twilight. An ivory statue of Phelim stands behind the slender glaes altar, his stony form clad in a robe of twilight-hued velvet swept with silvered stars.

[Phelim's Shrine, Exterior]

The pebbled path encircles a small shrine of dark marble erected within a tiny clearing. Pale petals are strewn before the open archway, its surface polished so that the silvered veins within the ebon-hued stone glint even in the slightest remaining light. Songbirds chirp and chitter all around, though they remain unseen within the shadowed branches of the surrounding trees. You also see a frosty observer manifested as a twisted ouroboros of frigid air, a frosty observer manifested as a vaporous cloud, a slender vela'tohr plant with leaves that shimmer and undulate like liquid emerald, a large curving diamondwood bar with several things on it, a diamondwood sideboard with an ornate chef's carving station with several things on it, a rugged silver backpack and a small shrine.

Also here: Fearless Crobin, Sothios who is shrouded in shifting shadows, Outrider Chrysagon who is shining with a dark golden glow, Veri Tervia Zionna, Gypsy Amabalis, Terize, Faebound Leilanie, Wind's Serenade Pyppa, Viknal, Aryss, Pradya, Dreambound Prophet Miskton, Crypt Guardian Relay, Roughneck Rileos, Vythlak, G'nar Pethian Dorthaf, Stellar Statistician Urbaj, Umptiskrunk, Reverend Gragnel, Delinquent Daring, Ectheleon, Pure Spirit Mazilyn, Firehawk Casari, Rienth, Lord Knight Hebion, Shavay and Desert Blossom Zersha who is enveloped in a cloud of iridescent glitter.

Vythlak quietly says, "Now listen to the nightingales in this holy place, and be assured that the gods are with us. But not only that they are with us, but they need OUR aid in this fight which spans the heavens.

Vythlak slowly empties his lungs.

Vythlak confidently says, "Thank you for listening to my words."

Vythlak gestures at Gragnel.

Vythlak says, "Now I will turn things over to Reverend Gragnel for a prayer."

Gragnel runs his iron comb through his hair.

Gragnel runs his iron comb through his hair.

Zionna nods to you.

Gragnel loudly says, "Greetings, one and all, I am Reverend Gragnel Durbin. I am a Disciple of our great and powerful Lord Damaris."

Zionna grins at Aryss, her dimples flashing into view.

Allye perks her ears up happily as she gazes at Gragnel.

Gragnel confidentially says, "Although it is Him who I seek favor from, I have reverence for all of the Thirty-Nine Immortals. Like any sane person should."

Unaka fixes Gragnel with a heavy, ponderous stare.

Gragnel matter-of-factly says, "Now, some of you already know me, some of you may not. But, those who do know me, also know that I'm a bit of a talker..."

You say, "Cast your holy spells. if you need one, then let me know."

Dorthaf glances up at the sky.

Gragnel smirks.

Zionna grins at Gragnel, her dimples flashing into view.

Gragnel confidentially says, "But, I think I share some good words when I do talk, and today is no exception."

Crobin cocks his head at Gragnel.

Gragnel says, "Please allow me a moment of your time to speak on Lord Phelim."

Crobin says, "Seem familiar."

Gragnel gets a ceremonial prayer tome embedded with a trio of night diamonds from inside his leather longcoat.

Gragnel opens his prayer tome.

Gragnel clears his throat.

Gragnel recites:

"Great and honorable, Lord Phelim.
We gather today in your name and bring praise to you.
You, who placed the very stars in the sky.
You, who had the great idea to gift us with our moons.
You, who even lulled the mighty World Dragon to a sweet sleep.
We, the children of you and your fellow Immortals, lift you on high."

Zersha gazes up at the sky.

Gragnel recites:

"Powerful and wise, Lord Phelim.
Today I ask of you to guide us in these trails we face.
Allow us our rightful vengence against those who would steal your gifts to us.
Allow us our rightful retribution against those who take from our number without care or concern.
Allow us the opportunity to seek our revenge on those who would imprison our families and friends."

Gragnel recites:

"Yea, though we find ourselves under the unkind gaze of looming threats,
We shall not fear for you are with us during this struggle.
The tiny motes of light in the distance are a sign of your continued presence.
A sign that there is hope in the future and that our faith will show us the way.
An end to this suffering would be the sweetest dream of all."

(Crobin weaves through the crowd this time his eyes ever shifting and his ears tilting back and forth listening)

Gragnel recites:

"Noble, Lord Phelim,
We pray all these things in your holy name.
Favor us in our fight."

Vythlak puts his oil in his burlap bag.

Dorthaf gestures.

Gragnel closes his prayer tome.

Zionna kneels down and begins to pray.

Gragnel thankfully says, "I appreciate your time today."

Gragnel bows.

Gragnel puts his tome in his leather longcoat.

You grin.

Zionna looks at Gragnel and applauds!

Gragnel gestures at Ectheleon.

Ectheleon

Amabalis grins, revealing her dimples.

Ectheleon nods to Gragnel.

Pyppa beams at Ectheleon!

Allye grins at Ectheleon.

Ectheleon says, "Thank you to Gragnel and Vythlak for your well spoken words, and thank you Zynell for the opportunity to share with the Holy Sorcery Party."

Ectheleon takes a deep breath.

Ectheleon says, "As the Heralds rage, invade, and attempt to oppress the good folk of Elanthia, today is a moment to consider the struggles and battles that we have faced and will continue to face moving forward."

Daring looks at Ectheleon and applauds!

Ectheleon says, "With the return of the Heart constellation, we can use this time together to never take for granted the efforts made to protect our good citizens."

Ectheleon says, "Thank you to our defenders, healers, crafters, raisers, and the many others who contribute daily to the benefit of the greater good."

Ectheleon gives a gracious nod.

Gragnel nods.

Ectheleon says, "With these thanks in mind I ask that you consider the kindness that the Immortals bless us with each day."

Ectheleon says, "They continue their show of love by bestowing favor so that none may forever walk the Starry Road. This is something that ought not be forgotten."

Ectheleon nods politely.

Gragnel nods in agreement.

Ectheleon says, "Each Immortal lends themselves to the betterment of the realm as a whole and offers choices for how we choose to focus our devotions."

Viknal glances at Ectheleon.

Ectheleon says, "Every aspect of the Thirteen has a benefit to be found and provides a conduit to direct our thoughts and prayers."

(Crobin moves back towards the rear of the group his eyes shifting upward letting out a small breath he didn't know he had been holding)

Unaka glances up at the sky.

Ectheleon gives a slight nod.

The power of Meraud is channeling through the area.

Ectheleon says, "Whatever path you choose, I only request that you remember the price paid for this life we live by an acknowledgement of all efforts."

Pyppa smiles at Ectheleon.

Ectheleon says, "While our appreciation may seem little, every bit can be felt and flows together like a river that leads to each new morning."

Ectheleon smiles graciously.

Mazilyn grows still in communion, a dark blue nightingale feather held aloft in her hands as an offering to some deity.

A quartet of translucent spheres in differing sizes and colors -- blue, red, yellow and white -- expands from nothingness and falls into orbit around Mazilyn. She watches their flawless, acutely precise movement for some time. The phantom moons suddenly break orbit and converge in an impossible eclipse above her palm, the colors waning as she is left holding a glowing Phelim orb.

Ectheleon says, "Let us continue to show our appreciation in any way, big or small, for the kindness that is shared with us by sharing it with those around us."

Zersha grins at Ectheleon, her dimples flashing into view.

Ectheleon says, "As my time to speak comes to a close I want to express my own thanks for all those with us and those that came before us. We now have Pradya offering a short prayer for us."

Pradya nods.

Zionna looks at Ectheleon and applauds!

Pradya

(Pradya moves forward a few steps and nods at Zynell, clasping her hands tightly together around her feather before bowing her head and inhaling sharply.)

Pradya melodiously says, "Let Us Pray."

You smile.

Gragnel nods to Ectheleon.

Daring looks at Ectheleon and applauds!

Vythlak looks at Ectheleon and applauds!

Pradya recites:

"A Prayer of Thanks"

Ectheleon blushes, the tips of his ears turning a deep shade of red.

Zionna continues praying.

Ectheleon bows his head in acknowledgement.

Gragnel lightly touches his panther pin as he says a quick prayer.

Pradya recites:

"To my guardian of dreams and maker of stars
I kneel in gratitude for dragons rest
I pray for knowing of the nightingales tune
I give all I can in mind and soul to you"

Pradya recites:

"Keep my gaze for the skies full of hope
Keep my gaze to the earth full of righteousness
Make my strengths lie in the words I give
In the name and heart of Phelim"

Pradya recites:

"Protect the ones deep in the shadows
Until the stars you made are all above again
Let us dance in honor on your silvery sands
Strewn with feathers and shells we have in hand"

Pradya recites:

"Phelim, God of both light and dark
I am your servant and prelate."

Pradya recites:

"Amen"

(Pradya raises her head and smiles softly, her eyes shining with tears of gratitude as she moves back to her previous position.)

Zionna says, "Amen."

Gragnel nods to Pradya.

Relay nods to Pradya.

Pradya melodiously says, "Please welcome my sister in devotion, Terize."

Terize

Ectheleon smiles at Terize.

Terize clears her throat.

Terize shyly says, "Good evening everyone. My name is Terize, and I have the great honor of standing before you tonight to pay tribute to the Immortals."

Terize fidgets nervously.

Pyppa beams at Terize!

Terize anxiously says, "Although my journey here has just begun and since my knowledge of The Thirteen may still be limited compared to many of you, I will instead focus on sharing what brought me to this path."

Gragnel beams at Terize!

Terize smiles nervously

You perk up your ears happily.

Terize shakily says, "I believe in the Immortals-all thirty-nine of them. I believe in Huldah, the weasel, and the darkness of Truffenyi just as I believe in Alamhif, the magpie, and the light of Truffenyi."

Terize shakily says, "I believe in the Heron, Idon, just as I believe in the Phoenix, Murrula."

Terize inhales a great swallow of air.

Leilanie smiles at Terize.

Terize slowly empties her lungs.

Terize confidently says, "This belief is rooted in the necessity of balance."

Crobin flicks one ear back as though listening for something.

Terize nervously says, "Balance is the very essence that governs our existence. It is through the interplay of light and darkness, creation and destruction, that harmony is maintained in the universe."

Zionna nods in agreement.

Zersha gazes thoughtfully at Terize.

Terize casually observes the area.

Terize says, "Each Immortal represents a unique aspect of this equilibrium, reminding us that we must embrace both sides of every coin to achieve true understanding and growth."

Terize smiles.

Ectheleon nods in agreement.

Tekhelet's altar candle burns with a comforting glow.

Unaka nods to Terize.

Terize says, "My calling is to spread the word and teach, and one day, I hope to be confident and knowledgeable enough to fulfill this role fully."

(Crobin moves around the group smiling but still on edge)

Nightingale Sighting

You hear a few soft, fluttering notes of song, and when you look up see a nightingale has perched atop the shrine. A few golden motes hang around it momentarily, looking like stars hung in an echo of a constellation. The bird sings another soft few notes, then flies away and is gone.

Allye's ears perk up happily.

Zionna gasps!

Gragnel beams!

Rileos says, "Huh."

Illiahanna smiles.

Crobin says, "Maybe I will show my way that direction to see if there is any difference."

Pyppa nods in agreement.

Crobin asks, "Zynell If I may?"

You say, "Aye, right also anyone else care to say words, please do."

Ectheleon smiles at Crobin.

You say, "Which means crobin is to blame next."

You giggle.

Crobin laughs!

Daring grins.

Crobin says, "I have little words."

Viknal bows his head and chants catechisms.

Saragos quietly says, "Immortals, I pledged my blade and spells to anyone who would help us to return our missing people. You heard our prayers. I will come when you call, fight when you bid me fight. My talents are yours."

Crobin says, "If you give me one moment...I am going to run towards the machine just to see if anything is happening, but I shall return quickly."

Allye nods to Crobin.

Illiahanna glances at Crobin.

Saragos nods to Crobin.

Gragnel takes a sip of his wine.

Ectheleon smiles at Zionna.

You say, "Touch the thicket."

You giggle.

Dorthaf ponders.

Zionna nods.

Unaka says, "But maybe that's an idea. I'll think about what it means to be a Cleric. I mean, I'm not one, but..."

You say, "It is a fun and odd life to be a cleric."

You look at Unaka and shrug.

Unaka nods to you.

Viknal smirks.

You bow your head and say in a hushed voice, "Damaris, guard and protect the children this night."

(Crobin looks to the skies as his hand run along the three claw marks in his armor)

Malorna licks a pink frosted cupcake topped with bacon crumbles.

Daring grins at Malorna.

Zersha leans on Hebion.

Gragnel says to Ectheleon, "True."

You say, "Just in time."

Unaka says, "So many great civilizations all over the world... Truffenyi would be proud."

* Malorna is slain before your eyes!

Malorna appears to sigh and her eyes betray a confusing mixture of shock and relief just before they grow blank.

You ask, "Would anyone else care to share a few words about the immortals?"

Gragnel says to Unaka, "The monks at the temple got me started on my path to be a Cleric, perhaps they can help you think more like a Cleric. I dunno."

Raknarosh asks, "Don't eat those cupcakes I guess?"

 As you intone a quiet prayer to Damaris, your hands begin to glow with a faint silver nimbus. You extend a glowing hand towards the body of Malorna.
 Dark crimson bands of light flow about the body of Malorna, pulsating with a heartbeat rhythm. Silvery-grey tendrils twine around the red bands, seeping into the corpse. As the last tendril vanishes from view, the bands explode with a brilliant flash and Malorna blinks dazedly, wobbling on her feet.

Unaka says, "Oh... oh that's good."
