*JadeHand looks about at the scene.*

"What exactly does one do with an unconscience Lava Dragon? Are we capturing Lava Dragons now, or do we put it out of the towns misery? And Where's the rider?"

*An impact against the field behind them answers his last question. He turns to see the rider launching attacks against the group in the street. He looks down at the Cutlass on his hip, then across the distance between him and the rider as the rider continues to bounce attacks off of the field from the distance.*

"This will never do."

*JadeHand reaches into his bag and pulls out a pad and begins to scribble.*

SERYN


what scant preparations can be made completed, Seryn returns to watch the goings on through the new armour shaped holes in the walls.

Its not going well...

Running for her things she grabs her longbow from her bag and tries to fire the arrows through the chinks, but soon finds her tummy is really getting in the way.

Searching the room, she spots a crossbow on the wall.

It takes two feet and all her body weight to load a bolt. But the result when she eventually manages to fire it is spectacular.

"phew baby...!"


The dragon made a bizarre squawking noise, quite like an amplified pig upon seeing the interestingly shaped instruments.
instantly it started trying to remove the bolt, eventually landing to try and chew it off, like a dog with bad itch, and dropped its rider who stumbled around for a few moments, before dropping to the dirt with a second bolt through his neck.

"Good shot!" one of the barmaids yelled from her perch atop a barstood. "right through the throat!"

"really? ok, have to remember it pulls a little high..."

Shoe shopping, do you even have to ask? Of course! That's how I got back, found these lovely little "dorothy" shoes on a clearance rack! They work pretty well. Also, got you and Sera some matching Mommy and baby comfy slipper shoes. Yeah, I know she can't walk yet, but they were too cute to pass up.

Planetside not too much going on. Something about some strange people that would like to see us all dead and these huge dragons that nearly leveled the pub. Nothing too exciting... oh and there were snakes, lots and lots of snakes!

I will go and collect Sera from Soul. Maybe the two of you can have a nice romantic day to yourselves?

Right, I've gotten a complete sequence ready. Now I just need to start the main replication process and let it gestate for a while.

*cackles diabolically*

It's just that stupid! Though, it *is* hard to see this shield. These dragons must be color blind and can't see the light transparent blue of the shield.

**A lightbulb goes on over jake7's head**

Hey! I wonder if the color has to be transparent, of if just this color will make us hard to see?

Well, time to see if this thing is part chicken or not...

**jake7 takes a deep breath and begins clucking like a chicken. The wobbly dragon stares at the group and tries getting through the force field again. This time, he knocks himself out cold.**

Well, not sure if I confused it or what. But, hey, it's out cold so we should do something with him before he awakens!

TheRealMe considers the situation. He touches a hidden control on his wristband and his medieval garb turns from traditional kelly-green to a deep blue. He tunes it slightly to match the color of Jake7's force field, then draws his cloak's hood over his head.

"Okay, Jake7, let me out!"

Jake7 presses buttons on her gadget and a hole appears in the force field on the other side from the attacking lava-man. TheRealMe jumps out and Jake7 re-establishes the full force field.

As TheRealMe charges the lava-man, he draws a sword and flicks a switch on its hilt. A high-pitched whine begins.

"Always wanted to try out this new vibro-blade. It should cut through solid steel!"

As he approaches, the confused lava-man looks this way and that, but cannot spot him. The blue clothing seems to render the wearer invisible to them.

TheRealMe meets his foe and swings his vibro-blade. "Okay, lava man! Let's see just what you're made of!"

Sparks fly, the whine stops, and TheRealMe draws back the remains of his blade, which is now partially melted slag.

"Oh, right! You're made of LAVA!"

"oh poot!"


"what we need is a magician"

"what you think card tricks will stop them?"

"no, but the big show off always have dry ice with them - i'm wondering if dry ice wouldn't slow them a little"

"Whats you're name?"

"Stephanie"

"Stephanie, you are my new best friend!" Seryn pulls out her comm link to the Tree and puts it on ship wide alert.

"Helloooo Tree folk, we need help. we're being hassled by people made of Lava, yup, thats right ,Lava.

So i was wondering, if Simonwho, or anyone else, wouldn't mind just sending us as much dry ice or industrial strenght coolant, or anything else really, really cold, just to hose 'em down with.

Would that be possible?

As our intrepid hero's are being menaced by lava creatures SR as a epiphany. He turns to Seryn, "Isn't magma made of a high concentration of iron?"
"yes, so that would mean..."
"yes, I'm guessing that a good EMP will short circuit whatever those creatures use for a nervous system. As I recall I had a bunch of EMP warheads rigged up to use for the ballistae catapaults." SR turns to Snarky. "Snarky all these people are in desparate need of your help. Would you please run as fast as you can to the ship and bring back the EMP warheads I made for the catapualts."

"Time? Alone? Wow. I can't remember what that's like. Thanks, Mai!"

Soul walks as quickly as he can to the room he shares with Serenity and slips through the door. He smiles as he sees his bride standing there dressed only in a very transparent piece of lingerie. He crosses the room and they kiss longingly. Finally they break apart.

“How about a dip in the hot tub?” Soul asks, very glad that he had gotten the private Jacuzzi installed in their room the week before.

Serenity smiles back. “That would be nice.”

Soul almost dances into the bathroom and starts the water, adding bath salts and bubbles, lighting candles and turning on some soft jazz. Finally, feeling that everything is perfect, he steps back into the bedroom.

“Oh, Sereni--”

He stops. His bride, looking as sexy as ever, is lying on the bed…asleep.

“Huh.”

JADEHAND


*JadeHand finishes scribbling a name on his nametag and places it on his chest. "Malekith Ichandren". His clothing and body begins to shift until a man in robes, with slightly pointy ears stands in his place. He glances up at the Lava rider and steps forward waving his hands in a strange fashion as he begins chanting. Just as TheRealMe steps aside, Mel's hands stretch forward releasing a Cone of Cold. The Rider begins to freeze in place, stiffening into a statue. Steam pouring off of him fills the air. Mel steps over to a hitching post on the street and pulls the large beam from it's posts.*

"Um... what are you doing with that?" He's asked.

"Another spell. Item. It makes things easier to carry by turning them into small pieces of cloth."

*Mel casts the spell and the large beam shrinks into a small piece of cloth which he picks up. He reaches around to his back and pulls an arrow from his quiver.*

"Why do you need a large beam?"

"I don't. See, there's a drawback to this spell. Any impact causes the item to revert to it's normal form."
*He says as he wraps the cloth around the shaft of the arrow. He stands and fires the arrow at the statuted form of the lava rider. On impact the beam expands inside the frozen form causing it to burst apart. Chunks of frozen lava scatter into the street.*

That might not keep him down long. Those pieces melt, he might reform. What do we do about the unconscious lizard?

Hey, Jadehand, how about doing the same thing with our lizard friend here? I know *I'd* feel a might better if this lava dragon doesn't have the ability to come to...

So we're not keeping the lava lizards? Good enough for me.

*JadeHand (as Mel)again waves his hands about and speaks a strange incantation before a Cone of Cold is released upon the unconscious Lava Dragon. It's burning red body sizzles and steams and hardens.*

"Sorry, no more "item"'s in memory, gonna have to break that one by hand. Anyone got an axe? And what happened to the others? I'll need to rest and rememorize before I can do that again."

A beam of light arcs down from the sky and focuses on the ground in front of Seryn and the other.

5 large metal cylinders appear in a twinkling of lights in the centre of the beam and atop of them is a card:

Dear All, please find attached five fire extinguishers from the deus ex machine company. They're excellent for tackling clockwork robots, lava beasts and, well, fires. Best of luck, Simon. P.S. Nobody get horribly burned, I hate taking care of burn victms. It's icky.

The light vanishes, leaving the extinguishers ready to be taken.

Seryn and the barmaids look with glowy eye's upon the shiny new toys Simon just beamed down.
It occurs to Seryn that the ye olde barmaids should be a little more surprised at thing just appearing like that.

"Ok, one each, i think there'll be a spare. TRM just turned blue, so I think that means its comoflage or something, so blue cloaks over heads, try to keep movements slow and controlled. Move far away from the building and keep watching the sky!"

They all nod, not looking at all nervous, and they move out.

Out side, the bubble is still up, passing close, SR spots her and grins, he tells her his theory and she grins back.
"get on to Simonwho - if your right, these should hopefully slow them down, but an EMP blast could stop them dead - its worth a shot"

She blows him a kiss just before the first dragon attcks again and watches as Jadehand - disguised as someone she doesn't know - manages to deal with it's rider.


For the moment the skies are clear, and she watches the dragon nervously. Jake7 Lowers the forcefield and at TRM's whispered warning, they wait nervously for the other two dragons to come back.

(ooc - ok, does that work? I just got confused as to what was happening when! sorry!)

**Suddently, another lava dragon and rider swoop into view. She calls the gang that wants to be in the shield closer to her once again and activates the shield**

As the another dragon attacks without any word from anyone, the barmaids aim the extinguishes at its belly as it flies overhead.

the range isn't quite long enough, but they manages to alarm the dragon enough for it to abandon the riders carefully planned attack and intead hurl itself at the bright silver cannisters.

"ooooh... that wasn't a good idea maybe..."

Seryn looks over at Jadehands magician form and called through the shield "you have a longer range.. can you get rid of the rider?"

Snarky comes blistering back to the tavern closely pursued by a dragon.

"Holy chrome!" SR curses under his breath, "Snarky just hand off the Warheads to me and lead the dragon out through that fallow field over there." He yells.

Snarky drops the box of Emp warheads at SR's feet and runs on towards said field. SR grabs one out of the box, arms it and places it in the pouch of his sling. He spins up his right arm and launches the warhead at the dragon. The missile flies through the air and strikes the dragon on the left hind quarter. The is a very sudden unnoise and the flying magma beast disintegrates and a shower of dspersed cinders falls to the ground starting many small fires.

SR stands aghast for a moment and then he realises he has been holding his breath for the better part of a minute. He exhales and his shoulders slump. "That was damn lucky."

As the dragon circles for its next attack, Sir Kei steps up next to Seryn, "T'was a valiant effort fair maiden. You and your friends must be great warriors in your land."

He takes his eyes off the dragon long enough to size up the canisters. “What manner of weapon is that?”

Seryn gaps at Sir Kei’s calm demeanor. “They are fire extinguishers. You use them to put out fires.”

“How does it accomplish that feat, as it does not contain water?” Sir Kei asks puzzled.

“You see, they hold compressed CO2 gases that rob the fire of oxy….” Seryn pauses when she notices Sir Kei was getting none of what she said. “It’s very cold.”

“Might I borrow one?”

Seryn just nods, handing Sir Kei her extinguisher and quickly showing him how use it.

“My thanks.” Sir Kei says bowing grandly before running out into the centre of the street.

He hooks the extinguisher on his belt and starts yelling and waving his arms to get the dragons attention. The dragon screeches in rage and dives at Sir Kei.

Seryn and Jake7 look on in alarm. “Sir Kei! Use the extinguisher!!”

Either he doesn’t hear them or chooses to ignore them as he just stands still, neither raising his shield no his sword.

Elsewhere, Arinda cackled with glee. “A fitting end to that great oaf Kei. I must remember to commend Adelle for her efforts. Alatariel could learn a thing or two from Adelle.

As the dragon closes on Sir Kei it opens it mouth to belch forth flames when Sir Kei does the unexpected. He dives straight for the gapping dragon’s maw.

The dragon draws back its head in surprise, Kei’s legs protruding from its mouth, when it drops heavily to the ground. Its legs had turned to stone as the lava cooled. The effect spreads quickly throughout its body. The dragon is able to take another shuddering step before the lava is gone entirely and al that remains is essentially a dragon statue with Sir Kei’s unmoving legs still protruding from its mouth.

The rider jumps off in panic and is surrounded by the rest of the extinguisher wielding group led by Seryn.

Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges


With her dragons defeated Adelle trully understood the situation at hand. These people used weapons not of mortal nor immortal, They were not of this world. Where they were from was a great question indeed, but that did not bother her. She started off down a path into the mountain leading into an underground tunnel dug by a river of lava. The path snaked beneath the ground for many miles before a set of obsidian steps rose from the side. Adelle walked up these leading into the dungeons of Adrians Castle.

The route wasnt guarded because no mortal would have made it through the fire tunnel. Halfway up the stairs Adelle turned off into a small alcove and walked down a path roughly the dimensions of a person. It wasnt lit and She was forced to create a torch of fire from her staff to lead the way down. The path was very steep and twisted and turned often with side branches and dead ends designed to confuse and abandon any soul who wandered in without knowing the path. Eventually she reached a Door of engraved diamond flush against the rock. Embossed in a dead tounge words were written in a black material within the diamond door.

When the travellers curse our hallowed ground,
As the immortal begin to fracture and split,
The Harbinger can then be awakened,
To purge our rightful land


Adelle read the words in her head that the First had told her so long ago and knew the time was right. She turned back for Adriannas chamber up the labrynth slope.

We must stand together and cleanse the land once and for all.

There is a cracking noise as the dragon’s heads crumbles to pieces and Sir Kei drops to the ground.

He lies still for a moment and then struggles to his feet grumbling "Dragons is sooo stupid..."

Shaking his head and brushing off some of the rubble, he walks up to Seryn and hands her the blackened canister. "My thanks to you m'lady. Now I must beg your leave. I am in need of rest."

Turning Sir Kei takes a step and falls on his face. A great rumbling snore issues from his helmet.

Again, elsewhere;
Arinda screeches in frustration and grabs the offending eye out of the air, squishing it in her boney hand. "How does he keep doing it?!?" She screams at the ceiling. “Sir Wil, Sir Devan, and the others, I can understand, but that...that... IDIOT?? How and why Sir Devan let Kei into the order is beyond my ken. And these newcomers...”

Composing herself, she thinks for a moment. “Adelle!! Alatariel!! Ouroborous!! To me!!”

*JadeHand looks around at the desturction and breathes a sigh of relief*

"Anyone hurt? Looks like the pub is safe for now."

*Quietly ponders the situation to himself wondering what should be done next.
Well, the pub is safe, we can go back to drinking. 'Course the people who sent those things might just send more, so then we'd have to fight again. We could hunt the people that sent them and make sure they don't send anymore, then we could drink in peace. We could join the Knights and help defeat the immortals... then again, "Piss off an immortal, you get an enemy for a reaaally long time." We could join the immortals and take out the Knights... sure the immortals aren't very nice, but maybe they'd reward us with some giant fire-breathing chickens... which I think is why we came here..... 'Course we might get those if we help the knights too.....*

"Well, If everyone is okay I think we might need to regroup.... after we finish breakfast. Can't go takin' ov.... Ummm... savin' the world on an empty stomach."

As for the extorting. Maybe another pub, i think we'll be nice to this one *leans in* between you and me, theres somethin not quite right about those barmaids...

13


The next several seconds were very difficult for 13 to follow. It seemed to be a mass of flying arrows, biting frost, and even bity-er animals. He could really only jump around, swing his sword, and look active.

Then, it was over.

The orange man had been spirited away by more of his pet herons, while the woman...

13 slid his gaze to a trapped Sir Wil, legs rooted to the ground with ice. The woman was standing in front of him, hands freezing the air with mystic energy.

13 hurled the sword like a javelin through the air, wincing as it passed through the woman's gut.

Her mouth yawned open wordlessly, while Wil, who'd freed himself from the icy constraints, nocked an arrow.

"Alright, Immortal," he said. "Tell us where the other one went! And talk fast, for my grip is slipping."

The woman slitted her eyes, and breathed out silence. Wil stared dumbly.

"Can you speak up?"

ON THE SERENI-TREE:

Trey sits in a chair in the med-lab, watching a large, bubbling vat. The door opens, and Deuce and Bobbie Sue walk in. Trey smiles and massages her temples. “You are a little late,” she tells the newcomers.

Bobbie Sue runs up and peers into the vat. “Ooooh! Is she done yet? I can’t wait for Bride1 to be… Ewww! Yuck!”

“Not done yet,” Trey tells her, “as you can see.”

Deuce walks up and hands Trey a katana in a scabbard. “This is for Ace. When she finally wakes up, she’ll want a blade.”

Trey examines the sheathed weapon. “Nice one. Where did you get it?”

“Oh, from that stash of twenty that Cozen got us back on Earth-That-Still-Is, when we were fighting Reavers and the like. My pair came from that batch, and Serenity’s did, too.”

“Oh, let me see!” Bobbie Sue snatches the katana from Trey’s hands and slowly draws it from its scabbard.

Deuce’s eyes narrow and she steps back. “Hey! That’s not a toy!”

Bobbie Sue pouts at her. “Well, duh! Hey, I know how to handle weapons. Jayne-clone2 showed me.”

Trey stands. “I need to take a break. Can you two watch her for a bit?”

Deuce frowns. “I’m late for weight training.”

Bobbie Sue’s face brightens, and she looks up from the katana. “I can do it! I can watch her.”

Deuce and Trey look at each other, and then back at Bobbie Sue. “Are you sure?” Trey asks.

“Of COURSE! I mean, what’s going to happen? I’m not going to fish her out of there too early, that’s for sure!”

Wearing a somewhat dubious expression, Trey nods slowly. Deuce and Trey depart the med lab.

Bobbie Sue starts wandering around the med lab, swinging the katana about her head and making ‘samurai noises’.

By accident, the tip of the swinging blade knocks a beaker labeled “Chemical X” off of a shelf and into the vat containing the re-forming Bride1. The black liquid in the beaker merges with the concoction in the vat, and it begins to bubble, then boil far more fiercely than before. A dark, choking cloud arises from the vat, then dissipates. The violently churning liquid slowly reduces to its former level of bubbling.

“Uh oh!” Bobbie Sue slowly sheaths the katana, carefully places it on the chair Trey was using, and strolls out of the med lab, whistling innocently.


Deuce, Bride2
Trey, Bride3
Bobbie Sue, Bride6

*Serenity heads to the common room, still searching for her husband. She finds him sitting on a couch, flicking through the channels on the TV.*

Hey you. *She says sheepishly, as she comes and sits down by Soul.*

You fell asleep! *He says, just a bit accusatory.*

I know! I'm so sorry! I must have been more tired than I realized.

But...I'm awake now.

*She scoots closer to Soul, who turns off the TV, tossing the remote over his shoulder. He kisses her and pulls her closer. Soon, she is ensconsed in his lap, his hands tangled in her hair.*

Perhaps we might move this somewhere more....private. *She whispers in his ear.*

Good idea! *He says, starting to get up.*

*Just then, security alarms blare out throught the ship, lights flashing.*

*Serenity is nearly dropped to the floor as Soul stands up quickly.*

Sorry, love, gotta run! *He kisses her quickly on the cheek and then sprints toward the security office.*

Oh, !!

*Serenity straightens her robe and heads to the kitchen to find some ice cream.*

13 slid his gaze to a trapped Sir Wil, legs rooted to the ground with ice. The woman was standing in front of him, hands freezing the air with mystic energy.

13 hurled the sword like a javelin through the air, wincing as it passed through the woman's gut.

Her mouth yawned open wordlessly, while Wil, who'd freed himself from the icy constraints, nocked an arrow.

"Alright, Immortal," he said. "Tell us where the other one went! And talk fast, for my grip is slipping."

The woman slitted her eyes, and breathed out silence. Wil stared dumbly.

"Can you speak up?"


Krysta the White calmly pulled 13’s sword out from where it had impaled her belly. She held it in her hand, regarding it for a moment. Then she casually dropped it at her feet as she smiled. Her blood, as it issued from the wound, instantly froze solid.

She took a deep breath, and seemed to shout. As they strained their ears, Sir Wil and 13 could barely hear her say, “Ouroborous is a coward, without the stomach for a real fight. But I shall not allow him to steal this glory from me! I shall bring you to the Empress, Sir Wil. But perhaps you should thank me for that. She always had an inexplicable fondness for you. Perhaps she will allow you to live as her slave.” She turned to 13, and took another great breath. “And you, abomination, perhaps we will discover that you taste like chicken, after all.” Krysta smiled and raised her hand. Crystals froze and floated down from around her outstretched fingers. Not crystals of water, but of the air itself.

Sir Wil shook his head slightly. “I think not!” Suddenly, he spun about and fired the arrow at a seemingly random target. It struck a ball lying in the alley, almost hidden by some rubble. “Infuse Ward!” The globe began to glow with an inner light, and floated upward.

From all around her, Krysta could hear other voices.

“Infuse Ward,” said Sir Elaine.

“Infuse Ward,” said Sir Morgana.

“Infuse Ward,” said Sir Devan. “Activate Wards Major!”

Krysta launched herself upward in hopes of evading the trap, but it was too late. The four glowing globes had arranged themselves around the Immortal in a perfect square. Their power linked, and she was thrown down roughly to the cobblestones of the alley below.

But the strain was great. Sir Morgana’s eyes were tightly shut as she concentrated. Sir Elaine went down to one knee, dropping her great two-handed sword at her side and panting heavily. Sir Wil bowed his head as if straining under a great weight.

Sir Devan was weary, but he took in another breath. “Seal Wards Major!” Blood began to trickle from his nose, and he absently wiped it away.

The four glowing globes began to orbit Krysta, then spiraled inward until she was tightly held, completely constrained.

Devan walked over to the exhausted Sir Elaine and helped her to her feet. “That went well,” he said.

“Very well,” Morgana agreed as she smiled.

“Better than when we caught Zorander,” Wil observed.

“Yes,” Devan nodded. “None of us died this time. Well, perhaps we should inform that newcomer that we have an Immortal that he can experiment on.”

Morgana’s mood changed and she stalked over to Wil, pointing at 13. “Sir Wil, what is the meaning of this? Why are you associating with this vat-spawn of the Immortals?”

Despite her small size, Sir Elaine hefted her greatsword with ease. “Here, allow me to take care of it!” She spun the large weapon around her head with fabulous skill.

“No!” said Wil.

“No?” the other three chorused.

Meanwhile, Ouroborous the Green (not orange!) stared down at the scene from the rooftops and muttered to himself. “Well, well, so they had a trap prepared! Resourceful! How fortunate that I was not caught as well. But it is of no matter. I had planned to use Krysta to eliminate Alatariel first, but I would have had need to remove both of them, eventually. I merely need to revise my plan. Oh, well, now to see what that hag Arinda wants!”

As the birds of Orouborous the Green (not orange!) bore him into the sky, he did not notice the single silvery eyeball floating near where he had been. The eye turned from him and floated over to observe the scene in the alley below, where four Knights of the Octagonal Order and a human-chicken crossbreed had captured an Immortal.

Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges


Wisp followed Sir Devan outside as he had requested dressed in his new A.I.E complete with anti-magical armour and weapons. The cage was green camoflage that stood around 8 feet high. Wisps arms and legs entered the respective structures and a mixture of hydraulic assistance and neural motor support controlled the movement. In reality it didnt require much effort at all to move around except for the difference inherent with being larger. The hands consisted of three fingers and thumb arranged in a circular fashion with a single joint to allow things to be picked up.

There were 2 antimagic weapons on each arm and standard cannon on the shoulder for attack. He had tested the magical shielding with Guidians powers and it passed with flying colours. He now hoped to use the immortals genetic code against them.

SAFEAT2ND


A hooded figure walks slowly into the square, a sword handle visible over one shoulder.

The figure pauses to examine the signs of the recent battle, sifting some of the ashes through his hand before straightening and continuing on. He approaches the group about to enter the pub/inn stopping at Sir Kei’s snoring form.

“Kei, you great lumbering ox, I knew you’d be involved. Get up.” The figure kicks Sir Kei in the side, but it elicits no response.

“KEI!!” the figure kicks him again, this time there is a response… an interruption of his snoring only.

Ruby emerges from the inn lugging a large pail of water. The others stop to watch.

Taking the pail from Ruby with a nod of thanks, the figure throws the water at Sir Kei.

“Wha…?” Sir Kei sputters, rolling over and removing his helmet. “Sir Luc!! What say you?”

“While you were…” Sir Luc waves his hand encompassing the battle damage in the square “…frolicking around here and having a nap, Sir Devan put the call out. We are to convene at the Keep.”

“Now??” Sir Kei looks longingly at the Inn “But I have yet to finish my break fast.”

“If you were left to your own devices Kei, break fast would be an all day event. Let’s go.” The figure says impatiently.

“I won’t be but a moment.” Sir Kei says as he struggles to his feet. Sir Luc watches but doesn’t offer to help.

“Sir Luc, these are my new friends. Friends, this is Sir Luc, another of my order.”

“Isn’t he a little … young to be a knight?” ScorpionRegent asks, taking in Sir Luc’s slight form. At 5 foot 5 inches, roughly, he indeed looked like a child next to Sir Kei.

Sir Luc throws back his hood letting her auburn locks fall free. “That’s Sir Lucretia. And as you know full well…” She glares at ScorpionReagent, “…I am not a boy. I’d like to say well met again Scorpion Reagent, or whatever name you’ve adopted this time, but our last meeting, or shall I say your abrupt departure, dictates otherwise. Let’s go Kei. It’s not seemly to keep Sir Devan waiting.”

Sir Kei kisses the back of Jake7, Ruby and Seryn's hands, oblivious to the scowl from Scorpionreagent. “Until we meet again fair maidens.” He turns, places his fingers to his mouth and whistles a shrill high pitched whistle.

Kei then stands nonchalantly like he’s waiting for a bus, adjusting various pieces of his armour.

A large chicken hawk drops out of the sky landing before Sir Kei.

“I hate that bird.” Sir Luc grumbles from behind Sir Kei.

“I know not why, I think he likes you.” The bird shifts its gaze to Sir Luc.

“Yeah, as in for lunch…” She says.

Sir Kei chuckles then grabs Sir Luc, throwing her up onto the birds back before following. He gives a jaunty wave as the big bird launches into the sky.

"Yes, to the Keep. The Baroness told me all I need to know about her magic McGuffin while you were walking back to town. Well we're free agents, we can do more than one thing at a time, besides we might get a chance to do the Zanzibar version of networking. Everything here is inter-related. It's very likey that the crazy eights will get us closer to the Baroness' bauble. As far as my 'friend' is concerned I don't remember her, I know I'm supposed to, she's my type."

Oooh. He's bowing now. At ease, TRM, at ease.

I offer my sincerest congradulations to the newlyweds - and my deepest apologies for not being here. I have a habit of wandering off, i know. I saw a shiny thing. Sorry.

Ice Cream Guy is fantastic! But as of late we are dealing with the adventure of the sudden and unexpected return of Ebo's crazy ex boyfreind. He was living in reno, out of harms way, and now he is back, and i'm afraid he's going to stir up some trouble. Also, I don't want to give him his drum set back.

How are things on the boat?
