OOC: Way to show Tillian not being tortured. This old man is spewing blatant propaganda.IC: Tillian (Mark Bearer's Clearing, Ga-Wahi)Tillian stroked Emotia's head softly."How long has she been out?" he asked nobody in particular.-Teezy
OOC: Yes, I have to agree with Tyler on that one, the old man is spewing his ideals, and Emotia more or else isn't going to agree with them 100%. But she'll definately take it into consideration.IC: Emotia - Dreaming -Emotia cringed at seeing Tillian kill the Toa of Plasma. "I knew he did that...but...he did it for a reason..." Then the scene changed again, she was seeing a younger Laryla. The Toa of Air sighed as he watched.
OOC: Can't wait.
IC: GravityI raced through the water. I was used to being shark now, so I wanted to test just how fast I could go. Not wanting Hajia to slip off my back, I held onto her with gravity.Unknown to me, there was another Tekea following. I guess they don't see very many purple sharks.IC: MorikThe tall Akrainid put his hands on his hips. He had noticed that a few of the beings here had marks as well. That was reason enough for him to stick around."I ask again: what is going on here?"
IC: KizackThe old Toa skilled, "Precisely, you understand why Tillian did what he did. Thus you harbor no ill will towards him. Now you must learn to try and help everyone else understand one another, that is how we shall lay the foundations to a true peace. We learned and understood the Bandits, you reached an understanding with Tillian. Now you must come to an understanding with some one you hate, Laryla. Are you willing to do that?"
IC: Emotia - Dreaming -"I'll try..." She said, unsure if she meant it or not.The Toa of Air let out a cough. "Please do hurry up with this Kizack, she'll be waking up soon, and as you are aware I have a very important message for my son to give to her."
IC: Kizack"Patience young one." The old Toa sighed, his Iden still shining, even with the sun gone. "Emotia, I can not teach unless you truly devote yourself to it. You must truly be will to learn to understand others, and then spread that understanding. If allow just hatred to enter our hearts, we can never forgive, but if we learn to understand one another, then forgiveness to become an option, and then peace becomes an option as well."
IC: Emotia - Dreaming -"Young one? We're the same age you baka..." the Toa of Air muttered under his breath. "...we even died at the same time."Emotia ignored the little squabble between the two ghosts. "Okay, I think I can do that." It couldn't hurt to give it a shot.OOC: Even if Emotia forgives Laryla. I, the player...REFUSE! ![]()
IC: KizackKizack laughed, "Ah, you seem to have forgotten a very important detail." He said to the other Toa, before smiling at Emotia, "Now child, are you sure you're ready? We don't have to proceed if you don't feel up to it. You could wake up, and we could continue this conversation another time, but if you're ready, then take my hand." Kizack held his hand out towards Emotia.
IC: Emotia - Dreaming -Emotia took his hand. "Yeah, I'm ready." She said in confidence.
OOC: Isn't interesting how both of our characters currently interacting are in a Mindscape.IC: KizackKizack smiled, "Let us proceed then," The image than began to swirl, and soon the two found themselves staring at a child Vortixx, she was holding out a cup, asking for money, only to be ignored by everyone else passing by. She had been abandoned, and no one was trying to help her. "Tell me Emotia, what do you see."
IC-Jaron:Jaron walked up to the Toa of Air inside Emotia's mind. "Hello, there," he said amiably, watching the biography of Laryla that was going on. He turned to the Toa beside him."Having a good dream, I hope?" He asked, smiling.
OOC: Jaron is such a troll.IC: Tillian (Mark Bearer's Clearing, Ga-Wahi)Tillian laid Emotia's sleeping form down gently and moved over to Dorian's grave, picking up a wedge-shaped branch and recovering the Toa of Ice's dead body.-Teezy
IC: [Naona]"Am I the only one who has no idea what the heck is going on?"
IC: Hajia & Hound, Ga-KoroHajia's eyes were wide with wonderment as she viewed the dangerous, yet beautiful world of the ocean.Speaking of dangerous, Hound had decided to go after the Temple squid. By himself. Surfacing one more time for air, Hound drew in a long breath, and then dived down.The squid rested quietly at the very bottom of the bay, and it's tentacles looked harmless. As harmless as a sleeping anaconda. Approaching the squid, Hound activated a burst of strength and speed, and he dove straight into the squid, his spear finding it's mark, in one of the eyes. The squid quickly reacted, grabbing Hound with it's multiple tentacles.OOC: Feel free to save him. Or let him be drowned. Your choice.
IC: KraynKrayn looked at Naona, and realized she was with the Po-Koro Guard. And he wasn't sure what rank she was. He had absolutely no idea what to do. Krayn's eyes widened as he came to what was, for him, the ultimate paradox. If he was a lower rank, it would be rude to ask what rank Naona was. If he was of a higher rank, then she should have recognized him as such. Except he didn't have his badge on, Skyra still had it.Krayn's eyes widened as he struggled to decide on a course of action.
IC: Utu - Ga-WahiUtu stood back up and walked away from the small group towards the larger group, "Well, whenever you want to actually tell us what you saw, I'll be over there," He stopped, "I wouldn't kill one of us anyways."IC: Tank - Ga-Wahi"I don't see how you couldn't be Dorian. You have his Mark, and you seem to know what you're talking about. I trust you enough."Tank noticed the newest member of the group asking what was going on. So was Naona, he first moved to the Akrainid and held out his hand to shake it, "I apologize for not introducing myself earlier, or explaining what's going on. I'm Tank. Mark of Pain."
IC: Dorian (Mark Bearer's Clearing, Ga-Wahi)"Good," said Dorian. "I'd hate to watch what happens to you if you did."He stood and walked over to the group, standing beside Tank."Dorian. Rage."-Teezy
IC, Agzinel: "Wait, what? How are you Dorian? I'm so confused..." said Agzinel.
IC: [Naona]"You seem to be staring at me intently," said Naona, noting Krayn.
IC: KraynIt took a moment for Naona's statement to register, as Krayn was devoting his full brain power to figuring out what he should do. "Um, sorry, ma'am, I mean, sorry miss, I mean......"Krayn couldn't even figure out what title to use. At this point, he was panicking.
IC: [Naona]"Is there anything wrong?"
IC: KraynKrayn still looked panicked as he responded. "I can't figure out what rank you are!" It didn't occur to Krayn to mention why it mattered.
IC-Ryllia:"He's confused," Ryllia said simply. "He doesn't know what rank you are, so he doesn't know how to adress you." She smiled over at Krayn, probably making Onuzek jealous."Now, I have an idea: Krayn, talk to her like she is a normal person," Ryllia whispered to the Officer, smiling. "You might find it's more useful than sticking with the rules all the time."
IC: [Naona]"If you want to know, it's Lieutenant. I used to be a Sergeant, but then the Commander promoted me and ditched all his paperwork on me."
IC: KraynKrayn swore quietly. "Karz, another person who outranks me in this group." He heard Ryllia's comment, and whispered back "How?"
IC-Ryllia:"Be friendly. Say hello. Introduce yourself. Talk about being a guard, but don't quote laws and regulations and rules all the time," Ryllia explained, rolling her eyes. "I get that you've been in the guard a while, Krayn, but you'll eventually re-learn how to be normal, won't you?" She whispered to him, annoyedly."Watch," she said out of the corner of her mouth. She walked up to the Lieutenant, holding out her hand. "Hello, I'm Ryllia. Did you ever tell us what your name was?" She asked amiably, having been off with Onuzek when the lieutenant arrived.
IC: [Naona]"My name is Naona."
IC: KraynKrayn approached Naona, resisting the habitual urge to salute. "I'm Lieut-" He paused a moment, resisting the urge to state his rank. "I'm Krayn." He held out his hand.
IC-Ryllia:Ryllia buried her face in her hands, trying not to laugh at Krayn. "You're getting better," she said to him, still holding back laughter.OOC: Yes, Tyler, Jaron is a troll. Thanks for noticing.
IC: [Naona]"You seem rather hesitant in the company of people with the same rank as you," she remarked, shaking his hand.
OOC: Aaand that is what I get for misreading a sentence. :PIC: Krayn"It doesn't happen often." Krayn admitted. "That I'm around people of my rank that is. Most of them hate me."
IC: Emotia - Dreaming -Emotia was too enamored by what she was seeing to notice the troll Jaron. "I see a poor girl...alone on the streets."OOC: Blah blah blah, so she had a rough childhood, which automatically makes her a victim of circumstance...not...OOC: Isn't interesting how both of our characters currently interacting are in a Mindscape.IC: KizackKizack smiled, "Let us proceed then," The image than began to swirl, and soon the two found themselves staring at a child Vortixx, she was holding out a cup, asking for money, only to be ignored by everyone else passing by. She had been abandoned, and no one was trying to help her. "Tell me Emotia, what do you see."
IC: [Naona]"Why exactly do they hate you?"
IC: Krayn"They think I follow regulations too carefully." Krayn answered. The he glared at Tillian. "And it doesn't help when the hero of Po-Koro, Commander Juturna comes along, interrupts an arrest, punches you in the face, and tears up your warrants." Kraynw as still a little resentful.
IC: [Naona]"Arrest warrants? Who needs arrest warrants when all you need is the ability to kick people?"
IC: KraynKrayn smiled slightly. "Yeah, well, Gravity Toa can make it hard to kick." He grinned. "Did you know Commander Juturna hates it if you mute him?"
IC-Ryllia:Ryllia looked over at Krayn, smiling thoughtfully. "Well," she said, "Now we know where he gets it from, don't we?" She laughed slightly. "It's a natural trait of anybody from Po-Koro." She sat down on a small log, watching the conversation play out.
IC: [Naona]"In Po-Koro kicking things is a requirement."
IC: Kizack"Keep watching," A Man with a cane suddenly appeared, "they call him the Grandmaster, he ruled an elite Thief Guild, the Wolves. The Man was brutal." The Man began sizing up the young Vortixx, then as if reaching some sort of descision in his mind, he spoke, his voice sounded like that of an elderly grandfather. "Dear child, please come with me, you seem exhausted, and weary. Let me help you."Kizack spoke again, "How ironic that the first person to show her kindness was also the person who told her to get rid of her emotions.
IC: Krayn"In Le-Koro, the biggest guard requirement is being able to drink two bottle of Salamanders' in one night. Then it's being able to kick things."
