Aww, that's a shame..." Anyway, I don't really have anything for Soul Reaver to do right now, so I'll wait for Jihon to move the story ahead.)

BUt I don't like to call it that because something is telling me that I am wrong..." Jihon looks up the stairs... "If everyone can hear me, we are going back to the ship! I have to look at something important..." Jihon stops... "The matri Vihar will be able to handel themselves..." Jihon holds out his palm. Knowing that warp travel to get outside the dome is possible, he opens a warp to the bridge of his ship... "Eveyone should come along... I have a bad feeling that we may see something of interest on our way..." JIhon looks up the stairs and then steps into the warp. Inside, his wife is seated waiting for him... The sounds of explosions echo through the massive staircase from above... "It is not the fear of death that drives us.... It is the fear of eternal life...."

I hope you have luck in your ship, I am afraid that I have stayed far too long for my own good. I know a certain person that will be very angered at me... Please understand, I will continue to help you, but I must take care of this... before it is too late. "Until we meet again, farewell, and stay safe." Kith bows slightly, all that he could manage in the staircase. He fumbles around in his cloak for a minute, then pulls out an odd looking device. With the press of a button, a warp gate opens further down the stairs. The device disintegrates, its dust falling to the floor. Headfirst, Kith leaps into the warp gate, which abruptly closes behind him, nearly catching his feet as it closes. After falling through the warp, Kith lands in a mound of sand. With a low whoosh a blunt object smashes into the side of his head, knocking him off balance and into an adjacent mound of sand. The tiny skeleton fared much more nicely. It stands a few yards away from Kith, the magic shield now gone, and a would be grin on its face, except for the no skin part... "Get up, you have quite the amount of explaining to do."

Listen, Neo and Fei, Clutch's battle starts soon...if you want to be able to jump into it at some point, we'll need to keep this moving. If my side quest is becoming that boring already, please tell me, and I will have something happen where Fei, Matthias and Damien can jump out of it. I won't be that hurt if you don't want to be in it anymore, so don't be hesitant to ask to be let out. If you are busy and all that, I understand. But if its just lack of interest, I need to know. I don't have your name written in blood, you are free to do what you want with your characters. Even better, if it is already boring and uninteresting...let me know how you think it could be improved. Let me know please.))

Silently standing, Damien began to attune his senses to his surrounding, but lost it as his mind drifted back to those dryads. Almost as if he could pick up his thoughts, which was likely, Matthias took a few step away from Damien in disgust.

I need to speak with the two of you as well if you won't mind. } As kanshisha lands, Rhiyou approaches completely humble. "My dear boy, you certainly have some strength in you. Quite alot, infact." As he comes within a negotiable distance to Kanshisha, he crosses his arms and grins.As Rhiyou looks to the skies, he can see the clouds parting and the cityscape below. The creatures flying in the air and the palace of 'the order' behind them. Such a wonderous place. Yet, such a pity that the king of such a kingdom was not in his right mind. He returned his attetion to Kanshisha and snickered. "My Boy......You are the one...", he says in a gleeful fashion. And then with another smile, Rhiyou reveals something that will surprise Kanshisha beyond recognition. "You are the one...The 7th Emperor of Sanctuary.....Lord Danyael Xavier..."

Posts: 1675 Apr 4 03 2:47 AM The Immortal Brigadier General More My Recent Posts	(ooc: Just letting you guys know that the Board Battle Classic is still on, and I've just rejoined it. I'd welcome a challenger) Soul Reaver, after acknowledging Clutchfiend's parting statements, hurries down the stairs. The rumbling explosions from above the stairs remind him not to dawdle. He arrives quickly at Jihon's Warp Gate, which sits suspended and shimmering in the air. Without hesitation, he plunges himself into the billowing red clouds of the Warp, following closely on Jihon's heels...

Posts: 472 Apr 4 03 3:15 PM Alter-Ego Character More My Recent Posts	Kanshisha's eyes qwirk as Rhiyou addresses him as a different alias. "Excuse me?", he says in a concerned, yet curious fashion. The name Xavier.. Such a familiar name. But what was the name from? where was it from? Why is it so familiar? Xavier.. the name means "Light of Deus" in the ancient tongues. Xavier.. what was it to? Whom did this name also belong to? So familiar. so familiar. Xavier.. X X, the symbol of the twin swords that guarded the celestial palace in the grasp of the Gods. The symbol for Guardian. Guardian... The Guardians There was a Guardian by this name. A guardian that was once a demon. The most powerful over all. A guardian that was turned from the darkness. A guardian that was unmatched in all swordsmanship. a draconian. His surname was Xavier... but he had another... X.. Xio.... XION!!!! XION XAVIER!!! "My god.....", Kanshisha says as he drops to his knees. "Father....", he said as he remembered the ominous alias of divine legend. Otaken appeared behind Kanshisha in a flash of blue and grey flame and wind. He approached the swordsman with calm, yet caution. "The first guardian of the Empires of the Gods.....", he said to Kanshisha. "And first Emperor.", he added. "Xion Xavier... was my father?", Kanshisha asked Otaken. "Oh, yes my boy. A great one, your father was. No demi-god, nor demon king could ever match his swordsmanship and power. He was turned from the dark long before any of us were born. He could shatter galaxies with a single thought. And he could empower spirits far past the points of evolution. He was truly a being of greatness. Both in Power, and in Honor. I am sure you know of your birth. And i am sure you know of your father's demise.", Otaken spoke to Kanshisha with a tone of calm in his voice. It seemed that even he was amazed at the legacy of Xion Xavier. "Yes, Otaken... i know of his fate... Duriel betrayed and slayed him before he could kill Lucifer....And later raped my mother while i was still in her womb....", Kanshisha said, a slight tone of anger behind gritted teeth. His fists clenched at the very thoughts of Duriel's tyranical and diabolical actions. "But you see, Kanshisha...Your father knew of Duriel's betrayal. He allowed it to occur. But he could not forsee the fate of your mother..", Otaken said, sadness and grief in his voice. "But you must claim your birthright. The one known as Rhiyou Kartzeh, has come to take you back to your rightful place by the sides of the 7 emperors of the Empire. It is your preordained destiny to acquire the throne and rule.", Otaken said to Kanshisha as he knelt infront of him and looked him in the eyes. "What of Kawanua Roshi? You and i both know he will be against this.", Kanshisha said to Otaken in reply. "I know he won't like it. But i also know that you were destined to rule. Your father knew this in his premonitions. And your mother knew this in her soul. So you must claim what is yours.", Otaken explained. "Yeah... i understand, my friend. I understand.", kanshisha says as he stands up along with Otaken. He faces Rhiyou and then looks at the Order's Palace. "What of Sera, Otaken? I've only recently been reunited with her. She is very special to me.", he said as his fists clench and then relax. "Let's go to her.", he says as he levitates and soars towards the Palace. Otaken does the same, but turns around to Rhiyou "Come come, lad. Let us be off." ((OOC: Kawanua, i kinda needed to god mod otaken for this post. I'll finish up later tonight after Sho posts, if that's ok. ))

" Fei speaks narrowing in on tamrissa, bending at the knees and taking her by the wrist. Closing his eyes, Fei's body begins to, as it appears, fall apart in ashen flakes falling to the ground. Immediately afterwards the Amulet comes to life as green cords wrap around Tamrissa the presence of Fei pushing against the vile creature, the soothing warmth resting against her as silk. "And as you say Willem... speaking of my past...I know nothing of this place other then images of it I've seen in my dreams... and the feeling that i've been here before...."

It is clear something is bothering her... "Dear... You know that I don't have anywhere to send you that is safe..." He looks back at the controlls. Lisette: I know... But is this really life? Is this really living? Jihon: .... No.... This isn't what I came back for... Or wanted to come back for, and you know that. Relk had to come get me... And he knew that i would have been upset If i had to be without you another day.... After all, he is considering my well being throughout all of this... Lisette: Why do I feel there is something you are leaving out of this conversation? Why do I feel like I should know something that you are keeping from me... Jihon stands and looks furious. Jihon: You want to know what the fuck I am keeping from you? WHAT do you remember about your childhood? Lisette: I-I-I can't... Jihon: We knew ech other from the time we were 6... I learned that pain Sabre technique from my father... ANd who else knew that attack? Your brother... The original Thisias... The man we named our son after... Irony... Irony.. That the name Thisias means Ray of hope in the bed family native tongue... Want to know something else? The woman stares blankly... Disturbed by her husbands actions... Jihon: Think real hard... JIhon is not a common name in the united states of america... No... I did some research... While I was looking for our son... You know what it means?? It means... Jihon pauses as he hears a beeping sound... He looks and sees a red light on the instrument panel blinking... Jihon: It means... Virtue.... Lisette stares blankly at the blinking light... Jihon: All the names of all the bed's are synominous with the mask they wear... Their lineage... Their power... Lisette: Then... What does Relk mean? Jihon stops... Jihon: We end the conversation there... Lisette: Tell me god damnit! Tell me WHY! Why I can't remember my parents... Why I can't remember my home... What does my name mean Jihon?! WHAT IS GOING ON! Jihon sits in his chair and looks away from his wife... Jihon: Relk means... Father... and... Relk: You have said enough... The armored man steps through a warp gate that had silently opened in a dark corner of the room. The warp snaps shut behind him.... Relk: There is too much for you not to know Jihon... But I knew my spells would wear off eventually... All you need to know now... Is that you must confront the warp tumor... Jihon looks at his father and frowns... (Meanwhile topside...) Millions and millions of metal spikes still fly over the city walls hoping to kill some of the AKu where they stand. The warp Gullums stomp and smash at the foe in and out of the city. As the others run towards the stairs it is hard to get away from the thosands of arrows that land and turn to snakes. One of the arrows strikes a small child and he is quickly turned into a pile of bubling flesh and bile by the means of some magical spell cast upon the arrows... <b> "I am the damned child... The legacy of shame... Yet... I fight... I will continue in my fathers footsteps... whether I am accepted or not..."</b>

Posts: 1675 Apr 5 03 3:47 AM The Immortal Brigadier General More My Recent Posts	Soul Reaver emerges from the Warp Gate and watches Jihon angrily reveal his discoveries to Lisette. After Relk speaks, Soul Reaver clears his throat conspicuously to get their attention. "I do not wish to interrupt, but I suggest that if we act, we do so soon. I have a strong feeling that time is running out, and I already know that certain other... forces are inexorably moving towards us. Unless we act soon, we may be caught unprepared by the coming tide." Having spoken, he backs away slightly, leaving the decision with Jihon.

"I will be going alone..." He looks back at soul and then to his wife... "And... I have to ask you a favor..." He looks back at Soul... "I want you to find a safe place for My wife and Gabriel..." JIhon looks again at the blink button... "It is not the fear of death that drives us.... It is the fear of eternal life...."

Posts: 1675 Apr 6 03 7:16 AM The Immortal Brigadier General More My Recent Posts	(ooc: Gabriel is the cat, correct?) Soul Reaver seems like he will interject and insist on coming with Jihon, but he stops himself. "I do not think that you going in alone is particularly wise. But I must respect your decision, if you believe that honour is at stake. Know, however, that we are all prepared to aid you should the need arise." He then glances over at Gabriel and Jihon's wife. "And I promise to find them a place where they can be safe." He then bows slightly. "If this is farewell, then may fortune smile upon you. Remember, there is likely more to this than we can readily see. I have no doubt that your wife wishes to see you again, so please be cautious."
