(6:08:38 AM) Caelzeph: (Not that there aren't ways to get there when you're in 'normal' Seirei, but things are just sometimes weird and you start off there)
(6:08:54 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) Done!
(6:09:13 AM) Caelzeph: Wachacha
(6:09:31 AM) Caelzeph: AIM or POST? YOU CHOOSE
(6:09:35 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) AIM
(6:09:39 AM) Caelzeph: VERY WELL
(6:09:49 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) (easier for me to multitask that way)
(6:11:05 AM) Caelzeph: Einarr (all of him) step through the portal into Seirei. Beyond, a hall of faded splendour awaits, its soaring vaulted ceilings and carved jade pillars worn, formerly-intricate carvings rubbed away. The remains of great reliefs scatter about the walls, their contents indecipherable.
Worn-down marble slabs dot the hall here and there, smoothed by the passage of time. Golden mist is everywhere, filling the halls, fading the ceilings, obscuring the distant exits. As the group of warriors watch, the mists subtly shift from golden to yellow, to green, to other hues entirely.
(6:11:27 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) 15 hands scratch 15 heads.
(6:11:44 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) "I THOUGHT THERE'D BE A BIT MORE OF A WELCOMING CREW, HONESTLY."
(6:12:20 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) Oneinarr takes point and strides down the hall, poking his head out of one of the obscured exits.
(6:15:51 AM) Caelzeph: An Einarr pokes his head through a crumbling archway! The sky is a psychadelic kaleidoscope of cloud and light, bright, hot pinpricks appearing and fading in the whirling storm. A large, bright ball, obscured by the miasma, hangs overhead. The ruins deteriorate rapidly past the central hallway, quickly giving way to grass and ground. This direction looks to turn into a glassy plain, broken here and there by glittering trees with odd, misty foliage. He can't see what's in the other directions, as there are walls in the way.
(6:16:16 AM) Caelzeph: Reality fizzles oddly. Things are strange here.
(6:16:52 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) "LOOKS LIKE THE RULES ARE A BIT FUNNY HERE BOYOS"
(6:16:59 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) "C'MON OUT AND WE'LL HEAD THIS WAY".
(6:17:27 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) They advance, talking among themselves, sharing stories that they've all heard at least a dozen times and regaling eachother on tales of shared conquests.
(6:19:49 AM) Caelzeph: The Einarrsquad advances! Somewhere off to their left in the mists is a structure of some kind, snaking away into obscurity, a pair of lanterns illuminating an empty arch. Off to the right, the glassy plain gives way to an odd field of flowers and trees.
(6:20:33 AM) Caelzeph: Straight ahead are the misty-trees and crystalline plain, which is reflecting the colourful skyfog in strange patterns.
(6:23:51 AM) Caelzeph: <done>
(6:25:26 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) They'll look left, then right.
(6:25:39 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) Then down.
(6:26:18 AM) Caelzeph: The floor looks very much like dirt. That mist is swirling about, though.
(6:27:16 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) Their feet become roots, bodies twisting left, then right as they harden into wood and bark.
(6:27:28 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) Thin hair sprouts into gouts and gouts and gouts of leaves.
(6:27:39 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) There's an orchard of Einarrs!
(6:28:00 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) With a *thud*
(6:28:09 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) 15 Colossal Birds appear in their branches.
(6:28:16 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) Miraculously, the trees do not break.
(6:28:20 AM) Caelzeph: So there is! Two of them have weird clouds instead of leaves, though. And one's got rather crystalline skin. No ill effect, however.
(6:29:16 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) They'll take to the sky, attempting to fly above the mist to get a better idea of the lay of the land.
(6:30:01 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) <done>
(6:32:30 AM) Caelzeph: The Einarrs flap up, up and away! It's not easy to tell which direction's which, here. Settling the plain as 'north-ish' in their minds, north-ish looks to be a flat, mirrorlike expanse covered in that colour-shifting mist and dotted about with those weird trees. West(ish) has a gatehouse-like structure, with what appears to be a long bridge set with lights at regular intervals surging out into the mist. Either there's a trick of perspective, or the thing gets significantly less straight the further out it goes.
(6:33:26 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) They'll settle back down, becoming dress-wearing men again.
(6:33:34 AM) Caelzeph: (Still going)
(6:33:35 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) To the West(ish)!
(6:33:38 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) Oh
(6:33:39 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) augh
(6:33:40 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) apologies
(6:34:50 AM) Caelzeph: East-ish is... weird. What starts off as a field of flowers turns into a vast, black expanse, broken by what looks like flowers in shadow-grass and trees, but, with some squinting, actually look to be tiny holes into a backdrop of more psychadelic clouds, as if it was painted onto the sky and the sky kept on going under the ground.
South-ish fades into mist. Pillars of varying size and design jut out here and there from the cloudbank, some at odd angles.
(6:34:56 AM) Caelzeph: <done>
(6:36:03 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) Eastish is intriguing, but Einarr knows that people live in buildings
(6:36:14 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) More importantly, people leave treasure in buildings.
(6:36:23 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) They'll rejoin their treeparts and head Westish.
(6:36:29 AM) Caelzeph: Westish it is!
(6:38:32 AM) Caelzeph: The gatehouse hoves into view! It's a fairly short, gothic-looking affair with a vaulted, empty archway flanked by a pair of swaying lanterns on poles, the oddly-hued flames ghostly and insubstantial. The ground makes way for worn flagstones, stretching off into the vague form of a crenellated bridge beyond.
(6:39:35 AM) Caelzeph: <done?
(6:39:37 AM) Caelzeph: >*
(6:39:46 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) (YESH)
(6:40:06 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) Oneinarr will enter, axe raised.
(6:41:16 AM) Caelzeph: Curiously, the building itself looks to be ornamental. The archway is the main portion of the thing, the gatehouse itself seeming to be more of a giant carving than a piece of architecture.
(6:41:36 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) Huh.
(6:42:00 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) He'll clang his axe against the arch.
(6:42:06 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) "ANYBODY GATEKEEPIN'?"
(6:43:20 AM) Caelzeph: FWOOSH
The lanterns in front of the gatehouse flare.
Fwoosh
Two more lights flare from the other side of the archway.
fwooshfwooshfwooshfwoosh
More lights, getting smaller and fainter, wink into life further into the mist.
(6:45:02 AM) Caelzeph: <done>
(6:45:34 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) Shrugging, Einarr will call the others to his side. They're on their guards now, axes poised. They'll shuffle forward as a unit.
(6:50:32 AM) Caelzeph: The Einarrs move onward! The bridge is a wide affair, easily large enough to carry them all walking side-by-side with room to spare. Those strange lanterns provide a kind of half-light, serving more to make the mists brighter and harder to see through than doing anything to light the way, filling the air with shifting colour and making the men slog their way, knee-high, through cloying fog.
Regularly-spaced as they are, the Einarrsquad thinks they're making good, if dull progress across the bridge, the monotonous pattern of lanterns almost but not quite lulling them into insensibility. As one Einarr manages to avoid, stopping abruptly as the floor does before him. The lanterns are continuing to dot the way into thin air.
Something laughs, quietly.
(6:51:44 AM) Caelzeph: The bridge, meanwhile, has made a bizarre right-angle (although this part not being lit by the lanterns), the lack of wall apparently a natural result of wear. How peculiar.
(6:51:58 AM) Caelzeph: <done>
(6:54:41 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) "THESE LANTERNS ARE BAD NEWS"
(6:55:23 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) They'll tighten their formation, hoping to catch anybody who falls if the road continues to wiggle annoyingly.
(6:55:31 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) They pointedly ignore the laughter.
(6:59:38 AM) Caelzeph: The Einarrs carefully pick their way along the bridge, which gradually seems to be abandoning architectural normalcy and is, in parts, hitting right-angles, curving, turning back on itself, losing parts of its floor, and in one notable instance cutting a circle without actually hitting the earlier part of itself. The lanterns pop up here and there, always providing a hindrance when it seems things are finally getting back to normal, obscuring vision or otherwise being a general nuisance.
(7:02:26 AM) Caelzeph: <done>
(7:02:40 AM) Caelzeph: Any change in plans or just carrying on in there?
(7:03:07 AM) Caelzeph: The Einarrs are doing a good job of avoiding falling off the bridge so far, ignoring the sporadic laughter.
(7:05:11 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) They will, but next time a latern shows up they'll reach and nab one.
(7:09:15 AM) Caelzeph: The Einarrs grab a lantern! The white hand holding the lantern objects. The white hand holding the lantern?
There's a white hand holding the lantern. And it's attached to an arm. A long, long rubbery arm.
In fact, this appears to be the case with all of the lanterns. And they've noticed.

The assorted other hands drop their lanterns, many plunging into the drop below, others rattling and rolling along the bridge, falling into holes and clattering into walls, the hands rushing towards the squadron of oldmenbirdtrees!
(7:09:36 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) (That's done it)
(7:09:52 AM) Caelzeph: (ARMS EVERYWHERE)
(7:09:56 AM) Caelzeph: (TO ARMS)
(7:10:42 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) As the arms close the gap, the Einarrsquad will close ranks, back to back to back to back, all screaming and BREATHING CARS
(7:10:47 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (fruedestruction) http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/ ... seid=74300
(7:12:56 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (fruedestruction) (Einarrmy can breathe cars?)
(7:13:04 AM) Caelzeph: (Yep)
(7:13:30 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) (Esoteric Breath Weapon: Cars- (Passive Ability, Mechanist) Possessor gains +500 Ranged Attack, Possessor's 'Ranged Attack' and 'Snipe' actions gain '15% inflicts Fatigued: Stun', Possessor gains the subtypes 'Vehicle' and 'Machine' while conducting 'Ranged Attack' actions)

(7:13:32 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) Done too
(7:16:51 AM) Caelzeph: The arms were expecting many things. Cars were not among the things they were expecting, not least because such vehicles don't exist in Seirei. An absolute cacophony of honking, crashing, smashing and screeching takes place as the arms grab onto the incoming projectiles and find, to their detriment, that the things are simply too heavy to deal with, especially when yet more exotic vehicles come spewing out of the orchard's various mouths, catching the rubbery appendanges on bumpers and cartwheeling into multiple arms at once. Within moments, the entire lot, cars and all, have gone crashing back into the mist. There's no noise. Apparently it's a very, very deep drop.
(7:17:32 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (fruedestruction) (Now he needs a Wamuu breath and an Esidisi breath then his life will be complete)

(7:19:57 AM) Caelzeph: The Einarrs get XP for 20 level 30 enemies.
They also find a couple of lanterns that escaped the... ahem.... carnage.
The Einarrs get (subject to change):
2 Lantern of the Errant Path- (Accessory, Magic Item, Fire & Illusion, 30,000,000 Gold) +20,000 Magical Attack, 50% Dodge, Weilder may, as a counter to any action that targets weilder, switch rows, with this effect trading places with an individual in the back row if the weilder's moving to the back row would leave fewer individuals in the front row than the back. Individuals who target weilder may be inflicted with, at weilder's choice, Charm: Wanderlust, Confusion: Fear: Disconcerted or Confusion: Lost.
(7:20:44 AM) Caelzeph: (Einarrs rolled well. Very well. That could've been a whole lot worse)
(7:20:52 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) (I should say so)
(7:20:58 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) (I figured I had SUPRISE on my side)
(7:21:54 AM) Caelzeph: (Also, hello Celas. I'm running Fading Province on tiredmode as I can't sleep)
(7:22:07 AM) Caelzeph: (Who knows where this is going or for how long)
(7:22:16 AM) Caelzeph: <done> incidentally.
(7:22:28 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) (Same >.>)
(7:22:52 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) The Einarr's pocket the lanterns and continue, whistling tunelessly to fill the silence.
(7:23:06 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) "I THINK THOSE ARMS AIMED TO GET FRESH WITH US"
(7:24:18 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (fruedestruction) ("Johnny Joestar, a paraplegic and former prodigy jockey, enters the race to learn the secret of competitor Gyro Zeppeli's mysterious weaponized steel balls, not realizing that he will be plunged into multiple conspiracies involving the king of Naples, the mummified corpse of Jesus, and the President of the United States.")

(7:24:39 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) (Yeah, Steel Ball run gets silly.)
(7:26:48 AM) Caelzeph: The Einarrs continue on! The bridge seems to be behaving rather more appropriately from this point on, occasionally incorporating short flights of stairs into its route.
A short while later, the Einarrs find their whistling a bit more atonal than expected. It seems the mist is singing. Also the surrounding area feels, at once, far more open and rather claustrophobic. It's only when part of the mists clear to reveal a massive stained-glass window that the squadron realises why. They're not on the outside of it.
(7:27:44 AM) Caelzeph: The bridge continues into a singularly gigantic cathedral-like hall, soaring into the mists above and fading into a plunging drop below. The bridge itself looks like it splits in several places ahead.
(7:27:49 AM) Caelzeph: <done>
(7:30:28 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) Einarr's really should be more shocked by all of this.
(7:30:41 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) But hey, they've seen things almost as strange.
(7:32:05 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) They;ll admire the stained glass. It of anything in particular?
(7:32:13 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) They;re continuing to the forks ahead.
(7:32:15 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) <done>
(7:32:55 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) <Also approaching need-to-sleep areas>
(7:33:04 AM) Caelzeph: (Haha, likewise)
(7:33:29 AM) Caelzeph: This particular window depicts shining spires rising from colourful clouds, surrounding a floating cathedral-palace surrounded by many treasures.
(7:33:29 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) (I'm going to go to class and just apologise for not doing work I think)

(7:34:24 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) (But sleep/being functional tomorrow is more important)
(7:34:40 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) (Mind if we call it at the forks?)
(7:34:47 AM) Caelzeph: (We can)
(7:35:20 AM) Caelzeph: (Or we could have THINGS happen and catapult Einarr out of the Fading Province if you desire)
(7:35:49 AM) Caelzeph: (Alternatively, I could try dreaming up more STUFF and you can pick this up again tomorrow)
(7:35:52 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) (Mm, the beauty of this is that we can leave it now and if it needs to close/Einarr needs to leave, we can just WHOOP him out then)
(7:36:00 AM) Caelzeph: (Righto)
(7:37:00 AM) Caelzeph: I think I might add the proviso onto the Province that, while someone's in there, anyone else going to Seirei also ends up in the Province. When it ends for one, everyone gets catapulted out.
(7:37:18 AM) [yogurtrunsfreenow]: (pathaky@hotmail.com) Haha, I like that.
(7:37:21 AM) Caelzeph: Or dies horribly.
(7:37:22 AM) Caelzeph: Whichever.
(7:37:28 AM) Caelzeph: CHANCE. WOOOOOOO


(4:34:17 AM) Pathaky: So: we were at crossroads.
(4:34:27 AM) Pathaky: Misty ethereal stained-glass crossrowad
(4:34:30 AM) Pathaky: roads*
(4:39:02 AM) Caelzeph: Indeed. The wide bridge has somehow ended up in a truly massive cathedral-hall, the walls and ceiling barely visible through the varicoloured mist. It splits into a crossroads, then another beyond the first.
Off to the Einarrsquad's right the bridge begins hitting stairs and vanishes off into an archway-tunnel, flanked by a pair of indistinctly-formed humanoid statues which look to be holding unfurled scrolls.
Off to the left, the bridge carries on straight into another archway-tunnel. Faint sounds of organ music seem to be coming down that way, although whether the Einarrs can hear it over the ambient singing mist and their own deafness/yelling is another matter.
(4:39:09 AM) Caelzeph: (Still going)
(4:40:47 AM) Caelzeph: Ahead, where it splits into another crossroads, the lefthand bridge-path looks to vanish into a flock of those odd gothic spires that are poking out from the clouds below.
The righthand one begins getting lined with statues before vanishing into the mist.
Straight ahead, the bridge hits a grand stairway and vanishes into the mist. It seems to be brighter over there.
(4:41:03 AM) Caelzeph: (Done)
(4:41:28 AM) Pathaky: CHOICES
(4:41:29 AM) Pathaky: HORG
(4:41:33 AM) Pathaky: The Einarr's ponder!
(4:41:41 AM) Pathaky: Do they want loot, glory, or sunlight?
(4:41:52 AM) Pathaky: The choir means/indicated PEOPLE, which typically have THINGS
(4:41:56 AM) Pathaky: and the Einarrsquad loves THINGS
(4:42:05 AM) Pathaky: They'll amble on that way.
(4:42:46 AM) Caelzeph: Towards the organing?
(4:43:08 AM) Pathaky: Yus
(4:44:01 AM) Caelzeph: (LEt me just pull up the Einarrstats)
(4:48:43 AM) Caelzeph: The Einarrs troop down the bridge towards the source of the organ music! They enter the archway, which soon proves to be more of a sort of tunnel, the walls heavily-carved reliefs in elaborate patterns, regularly broken up by thin, fluted columns that split as the form a vaulted ceiling. The ceiling itself isn't stone, instead being more stained glass, from which light streams down.
The organ playing steadily grows louder as the group continues on, filling the air with warm, soporific tones.
(4:50:29 AM) Pathaky: (Ack, remember how I mentioned I was operating as listening ear recently? I've been paged again. Apologies >.<)
(4:50:45 AM) Caelzeph: (No worries, I'll continue the description and leave it for you until you get back)
(4:50:57 AM) Pathaky: (*salute*)
(4:51:11 AM) Pathaky: (I am enjoying this a lot, It's just my schedule is fighting it)
(4:51:21 AM) Pathaky: (Be back in a bit)
(4:58:54 AM) Caelzeph: The group emerges in a wide, curving gallery in a circular hall, light streaming from a gigantic rosetta window above. The entire room is a series of galleries and walkways that continue on up until the ceiling, and vanish on down into the mists. Glowing brass organ pipes pull double-duty as pillars and supports, curving and interweaving with the stonework, wrapping around the galleries and coming together in a cradle-framework of brass and stone several stories down, supported atop which is a truly gigantic pipe organ formed of marble and gold, carrying several layers of shining keyboards of silver and ebony. Seated at the titanic instrument is a female figure in an elaborate white-and-silver nun's habit, a veil of silver thread and white silk attached to the wimple and billowing around her. Dozens of glowing, silvery hands of light hover around her, pressing keys, pulling stops and generally operating the organ in general.
Hovering in the air at various heights around the galleries and gliding along the walkways are a number of other nun-like figures in veils, all carrying votive candles.
(6:00:49 AM) Pathaky: 15 hands slick back 15 wispy heads of hair.
(6:00:54 AM) Pathaky: Einarr has spotted LADIES
(6:01:00 AM) caelzeph: He has!
(6:01:04 AM) caelzeph: Or lady-like objects.
(6:02:08 AM) Pathaky: Adjusting their dresses, the burly army-men approach as near to the main organ as possible, clearing their throats in unison.
(6:02:48 AM) Pathaky: "G'EVENING, GORGEOUS! NICE SET OF PIPES YE'VE GOT!"
(6:03:13 AM) Pathaky: <done>
(6:07:00 AM) caelzeph: The figure continues playing uninterrupted, but Einarr gets the odd impression she's turned to watch him despite not having moved.
"Greetings, Travelers." The voice is... odd, like a multitude of women speaking in almost-perfect unison. "I play the song of The Moment, for it shall otherwise pass without observance or celebration. Have you come to observe its passing?"
(6:07:23 AM) Pathaky: Einarr observes the song chamber, scratching his chin.
(6:08:00 AM) Pathaky: "ME HEARIN' AIN'T THE GREATEST"
(6:08:30 AM) Pathaky: "BUT I'VE BEEN LIVING FAR TOO LONG TO LIVE IN ANYTHING BUT TH' PRESENT I THINK."
(6:08:36 AM) Pathaky: "SO AYE, I'LL OBSERVE"
(6:08:57 AM) Pathaky: Hhe attempts to do the many voices/one voice trick too, but each Einarr is about half a beat out of step with the others
(6:14:23 AM) caelzeph: "Very well." The organ playing continues on, complex layers of harmonies adding to the central melody, interleaving, rising and falling as the light and mist gradually change from hue to hue, the mist's song joining with the chords and crescendos in a seamless blur.
Einarr momentarily loses track of time.
Or at least, he thinks it was momentary. When he snaps out of it, the mist is around his various members' knees. The lower galleries are no longer visible, having been swallowed by the varicoloured fog. Quite a few of the floating nun-figures have vanished, too.
(6:15:55 AM) caelzeph: The organist-nun is still playing as the mists rise.
(6:16:06 AM) caelzeph: (done)
(6:16:11 AM) Pathaky: Mrhgn
(6:16:15 AM) Pathaky: Einarr's like the music
(6:16:22 AM) Pathaky: The cloying mists?
(6:16:26 AM) Pathaky: A bit more skeevy.
(6:16:49 AM) Pathaky: "HEY GIRLY, WHAT'S THIS MOMENT ANYWAYS?"
(6:18:41 AM) caelzeph: "The Moment is all you see around you. It is the Here and Now, and it shall, as with all things, pass. We observe its passing to honor it as we in turn pass. Nothing here is eternal, and so it should be celebrated all the more for its transient existence."
(6:19:21 AM) caelzeph: (Fading Province, man)
(6:19:32 AM) Pathaky: (Indeed)
(6:19:44 AM) Pathaky: "WHAT IF I TOLD YE THAT YOU COULD CELEBRATE THE MOMENT FEREVER?"
(6:21:20 AM) caelzeph: "It is not in The Moment's nature to exist forever, nor is it in ours. We rise, we celebrate, and we pass, as it has always been. Perhaps, in due time, another Moment shall rise, to be celebrated anew, but that is for another time."
(6:21:41 AM) Pathaky: "LADY THAT SOUNDS LIKE MY EVERY DAY"
(6:21:55 AM) Pathaky: "WHERE I'M FROM DEATH AIN'T AS STINGY AS I ALWAYS THOUGHT IT WOULD BE"
(6:22:06 AM) Pathaky: "IT INVOLVES A LOT OF GOOFY KIDS IN CLOAKS AND BARS THOUGH"
(6:22:21 AM) Pathaky: "WHAT IF YE COULD CELEBRATE ALL THE MOMENTS?"
(6:24:49 AM) caelzeph: (Rolling, and... hrm. Interesting)
(6:25:11 AM) Pathaky: "AT THE VERY LEAST YE COULD MEMORIALIZE 'EM."
(6:25:17 AM) Pathaky: "MAKE PLINTHS OR SUMMAT"
(6:25:50 AM) Pathaky: One of the einarr's pipes up
(6:25:54 AM) Pathaky: "I LIKE PLINTHS"
(6:28:49 AM) caelzeph: (Hmm, Einarr maybe-trying to convince her not to vanish is coming up with weird effects, especially with this roll. Give me a bit)
(6:29:01 AM) Pathaky: (Haha, that's fine)
(6:29:08 AM) Pathaky: (Even if it's just a seed of doubt)
(6:35:04 AM) caelzeph: "It is not for us to decide. All monuments and memorials pass in the mists, as will The Moment. As we are now, so others should observe each Moment as they rise and pass. We are transient."
The mists are now up to the Einarrs' waists.
A ringing sound, a cross between a whisper and a bell's aftertone issues from the enormous circular window above.
"...however, it appears that you are neither of The Moment or of the auspice of Caligo. Moments must be observed. I would have this message conveyed, though I cannot leave The Moment unobserved."
One of the silvery hands of light descends towards one of the Einarrs, changing as it falls into a silver mask of a female face, set in an expression of peace.
(and now I attempt to throw a diverse bunch of concepts into an item. Hrrrrrngh)
(6:38:30 AM) caelzeph: (Seriously, what is it with you and rolls)
(6:38:48 AM) Pathaky: (Luck and I have a funny relationship)
(6:38:57 AM) Pathaky: (Today's been a luck day)
(6:43:23 AM) caelzeph: (Hnnngh. This is highly subject to change)
(6:43:33 AM) caelzeph: Face of the Hekatonkheire-Mother of The Moment's Cathedral- (Accessory, Mask, Aether & Illusion & Time, 40,000,000 Gold) +30,000 SPI, +30,000 MIN, Weilder's Bardic Music, Divine Magic and Holy Magic spells gain +40,000 Magical Attack if they heal, Weilder's Bardic Music, Divine Magic and Holy Magic spells cast by weilder that buff SPI and MIN do so by an additional 4,000 points as an effect that stacks a max of 4 times across all affected buffs, Weilder's Bardic Music, Divine Magic and Holy Magic spells that provide buffs, debuffs or effects that possess a duration may not have their durations extended by sources below Level 80, weilder may choose to count as possessing 4 more Instrument weapons, weilder must be Level 40 or greater
(6:43:33 AM) Pathaky: (That's kind of fitting actually)
(6:44:06 AM) caelzeph: Woop, slight change
(6:44:21 AM) caelzeph: Face of the Hekatonkheire-Mother of The Moment's Cathedral- (Accessory, Mask, Aether & Illusion & Time, 40,000,000 Gold) +30,000 SPI, +30,000 MIN, Weilder's Bardic Music, Divine Magic and Holy Magic spells gain +40,000 Magical Attack if they heal, Weilder's Bardic Music, Divine Magic and Holy Magic spells cast by weilder that buff SPI and MIN do so by an additional 4,000 points as an effect that stacks a max of 4 times across all affected buffs, Weilder's Bardic Music, Divine Magic and Holy Magic spells that provide buffs, debuffs or effects that possess a duration may not have their durations altered by sources below Level 80, weilder may choose to count as possessing 4 more Instrument weapons, weilder must be Level 40 or greater
(6:44:58 AM) caelzeph: ('extended' -> 'altered'. The Moment passes in its own time and shouldn't be stopped prematurely or extended unneccessarily)
(6:45:42 AM) caelzeph: "Take this fragment of myself, that others might know to observe each and every Moment as they arise."
(6:45:57 AM) Pathaky: Einarr's touched.
(6:46:03 AM) Pathaky: The whole squad bows deeply.
(6:46:18 AM) Pathaky: "YE'VE GOT A SPECIAL PURPOSE, LADY. NOT MANY I KNOW WOULD GO THAT PEACEFULLY."
(6:46:56 AM) caelzeph: "All is as it should be, with myself and with The Moment."
(6:47:54 AM) caelzeph: Mists still seem to be rising. Are the Einarrs sticking around or getting out while they're still around?
(6:48:10 AM) Pathaky: Y'know, this seems like a good place to pass for now.
(6:48:14 AM) Pathaky: Einarr's old.
(6:48:25 AM) Pathaky: And since he's joined the BA, he's died violently quite a few times.
(6:48:40 AM) Pathaky: Besides, He'd like to keep the lady company, just this once.
(6:49:01 AM) Pathaky: The Einarr's will settle against a column and listen to the The Moment's Swan Song.
(6:49:29 AM) Pathaky: "I WON'T FORGET YE, SWEETHEART"
(6:56:21 AM) caelzeph: "That, too, is a celebration of a kind."
The music swells as the mists' song continues to ring out through the chamber, waterfalls of swirling fog descending from the upper galleries, the brass pipes unravelling at the seams, the elaborate rosetta window's glass turning to coloured mist and light and shadow, all whirling together with the song and the chorus in beautiful, transient harmony.
The clouds briefly part overhead, a gauzy orb of indescribable colour revealed for a Moment as everything stands still.
That whispering, chiming aftertone sounds out once more, complimenting rather than distracting from the song's finale.
"And so ends another night."

Einarr wakes up in Nexus. Perhaps he holds the mask and lanterns. Perhaps he also holds this:
A Moment Of Peace- (Item, Material, Hope, 40,000,000 Gold)

(6:57:17 AM) caelzeph: (All items subject to alteration, deviation or BAMF)
(6:57:25 AM) Pathaky: (hehe)
(6:57:35 AM) caelzeph: Rrrright. I'll get this put up, then.
(6:57:46 AM) Pathaky: And I think I'll collapse to sleep.
(6:57:50 AM) Pathaky: Thanks for running this, CAel..
(6:57:58 AM) caelzeph: Haha, no problem.
(6:58:00 AM) Pathaky: It was a nice alternative kinda thingo
(6:58:03 AM) caelzeph: Indeed.
(6:58:10 AM) caelzeph: I didn't know where it was going, myself.
(6:58:49 AM) caelzeph: People seem to be getting weirdly-good rolls in the Fading Province so far.
(6:58:59 AM) caelzeph: It's resulted in Stuff. This is not generally the case.
(6:59:14 AM) Pathaky: Indeed.
(6:59:46 AM) caelzeph: On the other hand, nobody's rolled badly, so they haven't gone vanishing or getting hit by nasty-stuff.
(7:00:00 AM) caelzeph: Right, putting this up, then summarising.

Einarr received things (due to rolling absurdly well and actively avoiding some seriously bad news through dint of luck and choices. Good lord, those rolls). As with other Fading Province runs, some or all of it is subject to change or vanishing (actually, I think the Mask might need looking at/having more things possibly added to it. Sleepy is not a good state to go making items in. Please poke me about it):
