IC - Episode 1: The Arrival

[Nick]

Meepo nods at Belial's words and looks at his companions. "Return to my caravans, I will. Free to join me for rest, you all are. Or claim that sky-ship and meet back here while I settle Kurik."

OOC:

Coz I need to prep an important spell dammit!

[Awkward Map]

Veldor pinches the bridge of his nose and closes his eyes.  "You are wise as always, Meepo.  Rest would do us all good."

He makes ready to mount up with Meepo on his dire dire weasel.

Shiiiit.  Sorry Nick.

Veldor's anger draws a huge grin from 'Belial', as he looks at Veldor as one looks at a spoiled child.

"Don't get it confused, dear Veldor. This Age will stand against the Edge of Sanity because I will it so. The armies that will protect it obey me. Don't forget your place, or your situation. There are other Ages I could have chosen to attack, and under far less pleasant terms. Do not push your luck, or it might push back - hard."

'Belial' pauses before stating 'his' last few words with force.

"I don't need you. You need me.

"And on behalf of the people of Allaria I would like to thank you for your concern for this Age," Veldor sneers.  "I'm expressing a desire to ally to protect this Age among others from incursion, which should be aligned enough with your interests.  So long as we agree on that point, I believe we are done here."  Veldor looks for confirmation from his companions from atop the dire dire weasel with Meepo.

First off, Awkward Map, that was awesome.

Secondly, you guys have 24 hours before the episode concludes to raise or say or do whatever from the point this post is timestamped.

Noxatra merely nodded to Belial's decline.

At Veldor's slip of the letter she winced, but the damage had already been done, "Secrets you fool."

With the mention of a sky-ship, her attention became glued to the conversation, "He is just giving us a sky-ship..." she eyed him with suspicion, but curiosity won out, "I will go for this sky-ship, those that wish to join me, may." Before anyone can respond, eight small ponies and a horse materialize, each bare a deep purple circle on a field of black on their sides. Her skeleton minions clumsily climb atop a pony each, while she gracefully swings up on her horse.

Meepo nods at Noxatra's gesture, some hope gleaming in his eyes.

"Aye, I have business that cannot wait, the rest of you without any urgent matters are best off joining Noxatra to claim the sky-ship before others do so."

[Awkward Map]

"Let's regroup at Meepo's caravan, then take off from there," Veldor suggests.  "We can regain our spells and head off fresh.  Either way we should evacuate the area and allow the Lord to make his preparations."

[Sohala]

"Rest if you want, for I shall not rest until there is something worth resting for." Without further discussion Noxatra spurred her horse into movement, with the skeletons trailing closely behind her.
