[Eyes of the Thirteen, Chadatru's Shrine]<br>
Walls of jade edged in mahogany line the shrine, creating the feel of a clouded atmosphere. Finely carved from mahogany and possessing startling lifelikeness, lions peer out beyond their posts with an eyeless gaze. Translucent jade forms a platform that extends outward, towards a muted dome, while an archway leads back toward the hallway. You also see a pink-eared white piglet with a bright yellow shirt stitched with a chaotic rainbow of daisies on it, a modest granite altar and a sooty basalt altar embedded with a shield broken in two.<br>
Also here: Sublime Mender Kerennya, Mathematician Avrenka, Vaerek, Holy Guardian Unaka, Messenger Miraena, Raven Queen Chelinde who is surrounded by a purple cloud of glitter, Dzive Asini Leayne, Mageling Aerilia, Fearless Crobin, Firehawk Casari, Reverend Gragnel, Exalted Monk Maintain who is shrouded in ghostly flames, Ezathiel, Lady Knight Elurora whose figure is gracefully highlighted in a soft aurora of silvery-violet light, Courtier Aerhys, Light of the World Gwenddolyn who is surrounded by a corona of fiery light and Valta Varna Mistanna who is being harassed by an intrigue of phantasmal kittens.<br>
Obvious exits: none.

Elurora smiles at Avrenka.

Ezathiel gazes at Avrenka.

Avrenka says, "Before we start, I want to make sure that everyone is aware of Jundara and Istercal's meeting going on right now."

Elurora takes a sip of her lemonade.

Crobin nods to Avrenka.

Elurora nods to Avrenka.

Avrenka says, "Due to unfortunate miscommunications and scheduling errors, our vigils are being held simultaneously."

Miraena hitches up the waistband of her workman's pants.

Avrenka says, "But we agreed that our vigils would likely not clash with each other -- after all, the more we seek, the more answers we may have, nay? To each our own."

Avrenka says, "They are at an altar to the Triquetra, seeking answers from their Prydaen gods, and I encourage whoever wants to attend that meeting to do so."

Avrenka says, "If you have trouble finding their location, feel free to reach out to Istercal and Jundara for directions."

Avrenka says, "Okay."

Gragnel gives a slight nod.

Avrenka takes a deep breath.

Unaka nods to Avrenka.

Avrenka says, "I originally called for this vigil as a time of thanks and celebration to the Immortals -- and to Rutilor, speaking for myself."

Avrenka says, "I still do want to give offerings as thanks to him, and to acknowledge the Immortals epic liberation of the Clans."

Avrenka says, "But given recent events ..."

(Avrenka gestures to the sky broadly)

Elurora gazes upward.

Avrenka says, "... I thought it might be wise to also ask the Immortals for wisdom and guidance on what to do next."

Aerilia frowns slightly.

Avrenka says, "But before we get to all of that, I have an ardent request for all of you here, right now."

Avrenka says, "I ask that you all refrain from any hostile or aggressive words or actions, in honor of both Rutilor and his esteemed cleric, Mother Jaelia."

Mistanna tilts her head, clearly curious about something.

Gragnel nods.

Leayne nods.

Avrenka says, "Rutilor is the defender of the weak, and Jaelia tirelessly espoused the virtues of community and unity. Let us not profane this sanctuary by acting in contrary to that spirit."

Aerilia nods.

Mistanna nods to Avrenka.

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

Gragnel snickers.

Avrenka flashes a quick grin at Elurora.

Gragnel says, "Now, Lord Damaris is who grants my favor and who I seek to appease the most with my efforts and endevors; but I hold great reverence for all of the thirty-nine Immortals."

Ezathiel chuckles at Elurora.

Gragnel nods emphatically.

Gragnel loudly says, "So, bearing that in mind, I have asked the Mage Avrenka if I might be permitted to say a few words about our Lord Rutilor at this gathering."

Gragnel matter-of-factly says, "He said, "Yes." So now you'll all have to deal with me. At least, for a moment or three."

Avrenka chuckles.

Gragnel smirks.

Maintain chuckles.

Kerennya chuckles.

Mistanna chuckles.

Gragnel says, "I ask for those gathered to allow for some quiet so that I might get these words out. I thank you in advance."

Vaerek nods to Mistanna.

Gragnel recites:

"Lord Rutilor, the stalwart defender of the downtrodden and even-handed judge in all matters.
We gather on this day to bring praise unto you and your name and celebrate you in our offerings."

Elurora places a hand on her chest and bows her head.

Mistanna flashes a quick grin at Vaerek.

Gragnel recites:

"You, who in your purity can utter no lie or falsehood, making your every word honest and truthful.
You, who in your wisdom has given strength to those honorable knights who take up your cause and fight in your name."

Ezathiel bows his head in acknowledgement.

Gragnel recites:

"We, the children of you and your fellow Immortals, who have been gifted with so much
We ask for your defense of our persons on this day as we face a foe which wishes only our pain and suffering."

Avrenka begins to pray.

Knight Errant Trajan came through a translucent jade archway.

Gragnel recites:

"Let loose your ferocious hounds upon this enemy that seeks to ruin our land, besmirching our holy rites and sacred practices,
Let those who plague us feel some of what they wish to subject us to with their manipulations."

Gragnel recites:

"Let your actions be like those of your divine avatar, the noble and dutiful mongoose.
Let these vile serpents who steal our very skies and stars feel your sharp bite and tearing claws."

Gragnel recites:

"For, in this moment, we are the ones who face the great odds that unfairly stack against us.
We are the humble and innocent who stare up at vile and corrupt behemoths yet still we greet them with challenge."

Avrenka mumbles a word of general praise.

Gragnel recites:

"Lord Rutilor, see the many offerings of blades, your favored weapon and tool that have been made in your name.
May you recieve them well and find it of worth and value in your divine sight."

Gragnel recites:

"We pray all these things in your name, Lord Rutilor.
Look upon us and favor your children."

Gragnel gets some holy oil from inside his simple cassock.

Avrenka says, "As a reminder, Rutilor accepts any offering of medium edge or larger, and anything resembling a mongoose. To make an offering, PUT [item] ON ALTAR, then OFFER [item] ON ALTAR."

Gragnel reverently places some holy oil atop the granite altar.

Gragnel offers his oil to the gods in homage of their greatness.

Miraena glances at a modest granite altar.

Avrenka says, "I had a full chain of mongoose beads and backpack of weapons, but unfortunately ... the location I was storing them are temporarily unavailable to me."

Elurora cocks her head.

Avrenka nods to Miraena.

Avrenka gets a steel pasabas from inside his black backpack.

Unaka says, "Rutilor, after Truffenyi, you're my kinda god. You step up to defend anyone who deserves it, and as a Paladin I constantly strive to do the same. I look to judge with kindness and understanding in your name, to seek out injustice but to meet it with mercy and forgiveness when I can."

Avrenka offers Miraena a steel pasabas.

Miraena looks at Avrenka and blushes.

Miraena accepts Avrenka's pasabas.

Unaka shifts her weight.

Unaka says, "Sometimes, I'm afraid, there can be no mercy. I pray that I will give it when I can, and when I cannot, that you grant me the wisdom to know the right way to serve justice."

Leayne begins to pray.

Elurora gives a slight nod.

Unaka says, "I pray also that you give me strength in the fight ahead. There's still a whole lot of defending to do, from those crazy beings in the sky. I don't know how much strength I'll need, but I fear it'll be a lot. Please bless me, and my maul, Bal Katalni, the Certain Protector. Thank you."

Kerennya gazes thoughtfully at Miraena.

Leayne nods to Crobin.

Miraena frowns.

Ezathiel winces.

Avrenka gazes thoughtfully at Miraena.

Aerilia gives a slight nod.

Kerennya nods to Miraena.

<span style="color:red">Your vision blurs, and when you blink, you see an encampment of mainly Humans and Gor'Togs, looking grateful as they pack up their things. A mongoose darts among them, carrying a writhing vine in its jaws. The commonfolk pay it no mind, but as it passes by some of the armored guards on the outskirts, they stand up straighter, their eyes determined, their demeanor shifting toward strength and pride. The mongoose snaps its head back and forth wildly, tearing the vine to shreds. A gentle golden haze overtakes your sight, and when you blink, the vision has cleared.


Miraena gazes off into the distance.

Elurora chews on her lip, looking deep in concentration.

Leayne blinks.


<span style="color:red">A sleek mongoose darts across your field of vision, suddenly stopping to sit up straight on its back legs, an air of nobility around it. It lowers back onto its forelegs and slowly approaches the crowd, weaving through members, until it comes to rest in front of Miraena. Suddenly, it shoots off again, rushing behind her and disappearing.


A tear runs down Ezathiel's face.

<span style="color:red">The spry mongoose returns, and Miraena kneels down before it, one hand outstretched. The small creature sits again and regards her, then slowly approaches and nuzzles her hand, suddenly dashing up one arm to come to rest on her shoulder. She stands and finds herself laughing at the surprise, but before she can react further, it vanishes in a haze of golden light, disappearing.

Log

[Eyes of the Thirteen, Chadatru's Shrine]
Walls of jade edged in mahogany line the shrine, creating the feel of a clouded atmosphere. Finely carved from mahogany and possessing startling lifelikeness, lions peer out beyond their posts with an eyeless gaze. Translucent jade forms a platform that extends outward, towards a muted dome, while an archway leads back toward the hallway. You also see a pink-eared white piglet with a bright yellow shirt stitched with a chaotic rainbow of daisies on it, a modest granite altar and a sooty basalt altar embedded with a shield broken in two.
Also here: Sublime Mender Kerennya, Mathematician Avrenka, Vaerek, Holy Guardian Unaka, Messenger Miraena, Raven Queen Chelinde who is surrounded by a purple cloud of glitter, Dzive Asini Leayne, Mageling Aerilia, Fearless Crobin, Firehawk Casari, Reverend Gragnel, Exalted Monk Maintain who is shrouded in ghostly flames, Ezathiel, Lady Knight Elurora whose figure is gracefully highlighted in a soft aurora of silvery-violet light, Courtier Aerhys, Light of the World Gwenddolyn who is surrounded by a corona of fiery light and Valta Varna Mistanna who is being harassed by an intrigue of phantasmal kittens.
Obvious exits: none.

Ezathiel gazes at Avrenka.

Avrenka says, "Before we start, I want to make sure that everyone is aware of Jundara and Istercal's meeting going on right now."

Elurora takes a sip of her lemonade.

Crobin nods to Avrenka.

Elurora nods to Avrenka.

Avrenka says, "Due to unfortunate miscommunications and scheduling errors, our vigils are being held simultaneously."

Miraena hitches up the waistband of her workman's pants.

Avrenka says, "But we agreed that our vigils would likely not clash with each other -- after all, the more we seek, the more answers we may have, nay? To each our own."

Avrenka says, "They are at an altar to the Triquetra, seeking answers from their Prydaen gods, and I encourage whoever wants to attend that meeting to do so."

Avrenka says, "If you have trouble finding their location, feel free to reach out to Istercal and Jundara for directions."

Avrenka says, "Okay."

Gragnel gives a slight nod.

Avrenka takes a deep breath.

Unaka nods to Avrenka.

Avrenka says, "I originally called for this vigil as a time of thanks and celebration to the Immortals -- and to Rutilor, speaking for myself."

Avrenka says, "I still do want to give offerings as thanks to him, and to acknowledge the Immortals epic liberation of the Clans."

Avrenka says, "But given recent events ..."

(Avrenka gestures to the sky broadly)

Elurora gazes upward.

Avrenka says, "... I thought it might be wise to also ask the Immortals for wisdom and guidance on what to do next."

Aerilia frowns slightly.

Avrenka says, "But before we get to all of that, I have an ardent request for all of you here, right now."

Avrenka says, "I ask that you all refrain from any hostile or aggressive words or actions, in honor of both Rutilor and his esteemed cleric, Mother Jaelia."

Mistanna tilts her head, clearly curious about something.

Gragnel nods.

Leayne nods.

Avrenka says, "Rutilor is the defender of the weak, and Jaelia tirelessly espoused the virtues of community and unity. Let us not profane this sanctuary by acting in contrary to that spirit."

Crobin nods to Gragnel.

Elurora quietly says, "Oh, I thought maybe you'd forgotten who you were for a second..."

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

Gragnel snickers.

Avrenka flashes a quick grin at Elurora.

Gragnel says, "Now, Lord Damaris is who grants my favor and who I seek to appease the most with my efforts and endevors; but I hold great reverence for all of the thirty-nine Immortals."

Ezathiel chuckles at Elurora.

Gragnel nods emphatically.

Gragnel loudly says, "So, bearing that in mind, I have asked the Mage Avrenka if I might be permitted to say a few words about our Lord Rutilor at this gathering."

Gragnel matter-of-factly says, "He said, "Yes." So now you'll all have to deal with me. At least, for a moment or three."

Avrenka chuckles.

Gragnel smirks.

Maintain chuckles.

Kerennya chuckles.

Mistanna chuckles.

Gragnel says, "I ask for those gathered to allow for some quiet so that I might get these words out. I thank you in advance."

Gragnel recites:

   "Lord Rutilor, the stalwart defender of the downtrodden and even-handed judge in all matters.
    We gather on this day to bring praise unto you and your name and celebrate you in our offerings."

Elurora places a hand on her chest and bows her head.

Mistanna flashes a quick grin at Vaerek.

Gragnel recites:

   "You, who in your purity can utter no lie or falsehood, making your every word honest and truthful.
    You, who in your wisdom has given strength to those honorable knights who take up your cause and fight in your name."

Ezathiel bows his head in acknowledgement.

Gragnel recites:

   "We, the children of you and your fellow Immortals, who have been gifted with so much
    We ask for your defense of our persons on this day as we face a foe which wishes only our pain and suffering."

Avrenka begins to pray.

Knight Errant Trajan came through a translucent jade archway.

Gragnel recites:

   "Let loose your ferocious hounds upon this enemy that seeks to ruin our land, besmirching our holy rites and sacred practices,
    Let those who plague us  feel some of what they wish to subject us to with their manipulations."

Gragnel recites:

   "Let your actions be like those of your divine avatar, the noble and dutiful mongoose.
    Let these vile serpents who steal our very skies and stars feel your sharp bite and tearing claws."

Gragnel recites:

   "For, in this moment, we are the ones who face the great odds that unfairly stack against us.
    We are the humble and innocent who stare up at vile and corrupt behemoths yet still we greet them with challenge."

Avrenka mumbles a word of general praise.

Gragnel recites:

   "Lord Rutilor, see the many offerings of blades, your favored weapon and tool that have been made in your name.
    May you recieve them well and find it of worth and value in your divine sight."

Gragnel recites:

   "We pray all these things in your name, Lord Rutilor.
    Look upon us and favor your children."

Avrenka says, "As a reminder, Rutilor accepts any offering of medium edge or larger, and anything resembling a mongoose. To make an offering, PUT [item] ON ALTAR, then OFFER [item] ON ALTAR."

Gragnel reverently places some holy oil atop the granite altar.

Gragnel offers his oil to the gods in homage of their greatness.

Miraena glances at a modest granite altar.

Avrenka says, "I had a full chain of mongoose beads and backpack of weapons, but unfortunately ... the location I was storing them are temporarily unavailable to me."

Unaka says, "Rutilor, after Truffenyi, you're my kinda god. You step up to defend anyone who deserves it, and as a Paladin I constantly strive to do the same. I look to judge with kindness and understanding in your name, to seek out injustice but to meet it with mercy and forgiveness when I can."

Avrenka offers Miraena a steel pasabas.

Miraena looks at Avrenka and blushes.

Miraena accepts Avrenka's pasabas.

Unaka shifts her weight.

Unaka says, "Sometimes, I'm afraid, there can be no mercy. I pray that I will give it when I can, and when I cannot, that you grant me the wisdom to know the right way to serve justice."

Leayne begins to pray.

Elurora gives a slight nod.

Unaka says, "I pray also that you give me strength in the fight ahead. There's still a whole lot of defending to do, from those crazy beings in the sky. I don't know how much strength I'll need, but I fear it'll be a lot. Please bless me, and my maul, Bal Katalni, the Certain Protector. Thank you."

Leayne nods to Crobin.

Miraena frowns.

Ezathiel winces.

Avrenka gazes thoughtfully at Miraena.

Kerennya nods to Miraena.

Your vision blurs, and when you blink, you see an encampment of mainly Humans and Gor'Togs, looking grateful as they pack up their things. A mongoose darts among them, carrying a writhing vine in its jaws. The commonfolk pay it no mind, but as it passes by some of the armored guards on the outskirts, they stand up straighter, their eyes determined, their demeanor shifting toward strength and pride. The mongoose snaps its head back and forth wildly, tearing the vine to shreds. A gentle golden haze overtakes your sight, and when you blink, the vision has cleared.


Miraena gazes off into the distance.

Elurora chews on her lip, looking deep in concentration.

Leayne blinks.


A sleek mongoose darts across your field of vision, suddenly stopping to sit up straight on its back legs, an air of nobility around it.

Suddenly, it shoots off again, rushing behind her and disappearing.


A tear runs down Ezathiel's face.

She stands and finds herself laughing at the surprise, but before she can react further, it vanishes in a haze of golden light, disappearing.
