*Black leather boots clack down the hallway towards the common room from the room of JadeHand. Black pants rise from the cuffs of the boots. Leather hangs from his hip, containing a bottle full of rum. It slips from it's leather bonds and is raised to the lips of the pirate BlackJackRackham. Several gulps later the bottle slips back in and is full again before the hand pulls away to wipe at his lips.
A slight "clank" of glass against glass is heard with every step. A Red sash hangs on his hip, his black shirt is tight around his wrists, held in place by leather bracers. An eyepatch covers his left eye, and atop his head a strange cap of white and red.
He stops in front of the new Tree... within the Tree.. and begins to stack bottle after bottle under the tree, each wrapped with a pleasant bow and a nametag, one for each resident of the Tree.
The many empty bags are collected and deposited in the refuse container within the kitchen. There he finds Ath slaving over a large popcorn maker, filling bowl after bowl. JadeBlackJackRackham stops for a moment, takes a handfull of popcorn from the newly filled bowl and pops it into his mouth as Ath stares.*

"Hey Ath! How's it going?"


ummmm....Marillion

"Hey Rackham! Other than a singed eyebrow or two, I'm doing pretty well. You?"

The seige of Octagonal keep, Zanzibar.

Atop the battlements SR continues to soldier on, killing orcs one after another for hours non stop. He can feel it coming, the end. His skill at arms is more than good and he is tough enough to chew his way through solid granite, but he is only human and soon his stamina will be gone. He bleeds from superficial wounds to numerous to count. He hasn't eaten a proper meal in over a day, his throat is so parched he can only croak.
"Maybe Valhalla is a place on Zanzibar?" He wonders to himself as he disembowels yet another orc. "When do I get to drink mead with the gods?" His reactions are slowing, his movements are becoming sloppy and predictable.

*blinks with alarm at the sight of Ath running towards her, Serenity behind him unwrapping the flake with a slitghly helpless look in her eyes*

"Er... er.... Its not peanut butter! Its Marmite! you'll hate it!"

But Ath isn't fooled. Seryn runs (and despite resembling a small orca, she can still get up a bit of speed)

She leads Ath on a chase through most of the ship, discovering the Lost Room of Odd Socks (useful to know), finding out where the magic wardrobe is located (but i asked for red sequins, not gold - no fair! why does Ath get red sequins?) disturbing the piffle ponies and paying a visit to the Yeti's (who start making bets)and eventually finds herself in the Nandi pulling tongues at Ath, who, dressed in a very fetching red sequinned gown, claws at the windows with Foodie zeal.

*pushing the comms button - "Serenity? Good new and bad...*




Isn't sanity really a one trick pony, anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking! But when you're good and crazy...ooh hoo hoo hoo... the skys the limit!

As Sir Luc Drops from the highest tower, her body transforms. Large wings sprout from her back, horns grow from her forehead and she increases in stature.

She lands amid the hoard. As she touches the ground, an tremor with earthquake intensity ripples out from her like a pebble hitting water. All those around her are knocked off their feet and are consumed by the ring of fire that follows.

Meanwhile a tremendous wind kicks up. A figure in blue flies down at great speed to grab and carry away the petrified Sir Devan. "I have you now!" gloats Zorander the Storm Caller. "Time for a little vengeance!"

The creature once called Sir Luc holds her hands out flat to the ground and the weapons and armor of the fallen flow of them like water forming a long thin metal rope. Her back to Zorander, she points at him and the metal rope streaks skyward wrapping around his ankle.

Zorander looks down at the rope startled. A small laugh escapes his lips. “You honestly think that will hold me? Then you are a fool.”

Sir-Luc-creature grins exposing her canine teeth. “It’s not intended to hold you.” Her eyes shift from grey to blue, “Only to act as a ground...”

A large bolt of lightening strikes Zorander. His screams fill the air. His charred form drops Sir Devan, as the metal rope tightens slamming Zorander’s body into the ground.

Krysta looks up at the sound, but too late. Her mouth opens in a soundless scream as her body breaks Sir Devan’s fall.

The Sir-Luc-creature forms the rest of the metal into a large broadsword which promptly bursts into a combination of fire and ice.

Magnus blinks out of nowhere in front of Sir Luc. He looks around in surprise, then turns to walk away again kissing his charm. He blinks out of existence and shortly reappears facing Sir Luc again. Now panic fills his features “But how...”

As the monster formly known as Luc Draws Magnus to her through space and time a thought occurs to Wisp. Magnus was the one who had drawn the souls out of the immortals therefore it stands to reason they are kept out of their bodies through his magic. If Magnus were to be killed then the immortality of the others may crumble and fall as well.

Wisp needed to get back to the wall and get a team together to find Magnus's soul. And theyd better do it quickly before the Monster gets tired of the enemy and turns her attention towards the keep.

He leapt back onto the wall of the keep to find Scorpion Regent in a compromising position with a large woman. Wisp coughed lightly to attract his attention, although this was amplified through the speakers in his Armour.
