BZPRPG: Kumu Islets

OOC: Yep, you's in 'da fancy part of town now.

Renod rolls his eyes at the being's ill knowledge of manners before motioning for the Matoran to pour the wine into his glass."Tell me, Feldnok, what do you tend to drink? Wine, ale; name it and it's yours."OOC: "I'll have some Turkish Delight."-Mef Man

OOC: I don't know why people like that stuff so much. Never found a liking to it.IC: Feldnok"Living in Ga-Koro, I think the answer's obvious." responded Feldnok, chuckling shortly after. Water, water and more water. "Pour me something you like, something you fancy."

Renod chuckles as well before motioning for the Le-Matoran to fill the brute's cup as well with the wine."Well, then try this on for size," he says before holding his glass up in a toasting manner.-Mef Man

IC: FeldnokFeldnok lifted his glass into the air similarly and took a sip of the dark crimson red wine. It tasted...fruity but almost dry at the same time. He smacked his lips together and licked his pallet, trying to get more of the flavor."Hmm, it's good. A little strong for someone who drinks nothing but water like me but good, nonetheless."

"Glad you like it," he replies before taking a sip himself. He sighs happily before setting his glass down and biting into his meal. "So, have you ever been to Po-Wahi?" he asks, deciding that he would ask the questions for a first.-Mef Man

IC: Feldnok"A few times. Hated every single moment of every trip. I don't know how people could stand living there, in the dryness and being exposed to the harsh sun." said Feldnok, taking another sip before setting his glass down.

"You truly are a water dweller," chuckles Renod before taking another sip.-Mef Man

IC: Feldnok"Being a Skakdi of Water and having lived in Ga-Koro for so long is bound to make you one whether you like it or not." chuckled Feldnok along with Renod.

"Those little Ga-Matoran don't drink too much strong drinks," he states. "You should see these Le-Matoran," adds Renod while gesturing toward the busy Matoran. "They'll finish a few bottles in a matter of minutes without breaking a sweat."-Mef Man

IC: Feldnok"So I've heard. I also hear their tree-speech is hilarious when they get drunk."

"I haven't seen that myself," replies Renod while leaning back on the bench. He didn't approve of drunkeness; believing it to do nothing more than hinder your senses. The Vortixx only drank a bit of wine here and there during celebrations or with company.OOC: Last post for a while.-Mef Man

IC: FeldnokUnlike Renod, drunks didn't bother Feldnok too much unless they began to become hindrances, it was that Feldnok disapproved of himself getting drunk. The Skakdi finished whatever wine was left in his glass and set it down."Very good. I believe we're almost there."

Renod looks toward the coast to see that they were indeed approaching the coast."Tell me, Feldnok, would you rather go the to Wahi on a Gukko or on this vessel?" he asks. The Vortixx enjoyed his ship, but it would take longer than a bird. He wasn't sure which would be better, so he was thinking maybe the Skakdi had a better idea.-Mef Man

IC: Feldnok"As you can see, I'm pretty heavy for a gukko bird, like most Skakdi are. I believe travelling by boat would be the best method."

"That's perfectly fine with me," replies the Vortixx. "Looks like we're almost to the coast of Le-Wahi," he explains. "We'll travel along the coast and head toward Naho Bay for resupllying and a good night's sleep."-Mef Man

IC: Feldnok"Good enough." said Feldnok, positioning himself once more in a comfortable manner.

Renod sits back as well and continues to drink his wine. Soon, the vessel was on the coast of Le-Wahi, the sandy beaches to their left while they travelled north.OOC: Feldnok and Renod to Le-Wahi.-Mef Man

IC: [The Seventh]"Okay, my left arm and right leg are dead. This really sucks."The Seventh gritted her teeth as she slowly crawled through the bog of a swamp, ignoring the pain that came with her bodily functions slowly shutting down without an influx of courage for her Mark. It had seemed like a rather good thing at first, but it gave her so many side-effects that would basically kill a normal being if used, and if it wasn't used she would die."Mata Nui must be testing my worth to pierce the heavens," she muttered as she crawled her way into Xa-Koro. "He's probably laughing at me, but I'm not going to give up so easily."OOC: The Seventh, Mark Bearer of Courage, is open for interaction.

ooC: Time skip in order to get this moving again.IC: SalvinnThey had reached the docks at last. All around them Matoran were busy at work. "So Cersei, which boat do you want?"

OOC: Yeah. And I just realised something. Septimus and the Seventh have the same name, only in different languages.IC: [Septimus/The Seventh]Septimus nodded, before spotting someone in the corner of his eye. He slowly turned around to see a Ga-Matoran futilely crawl across the village. He ran over to check on her."You okay?" he asked.The Ga-Matoran looked up and gritted her teeth. "Never better. Sure my legs and one arm have shut down, but I'll be fine."To Septimus, it didn't actually sound as if the other Matoran was okay, and he quickly turned to look for his Vortixx friend."Salvinn! There's an injured Matoran here!"

IC: SalvinnSalvinn ran over to Sep, an act which somewhat painful due to his injured back. "It appears there is, an injured Matoran to go along with an injured Vortixx, "Come on Sep help me lift her up." Salvinn said putting his arms under the injured Matoran.

IC: [Septimus/The Seventh]Septimus nodded, helping lift up the other Matoran."You really don't need to help me," the Ga-Matoran said. "All I need is a boost of Courage, and then I'll be perfectly fine. Sure I'll be nauseous, have some migraines and be in great pain, but at least I won't die.""You're probably delirious then," Septimus replied. "We need you to get you to a doctor.""Only doctor I know is my sister, and she's in Ga-Koro."

IC: Salvinn"Well then it seems your in luck. We just so happen to be heading to Ga-Koro." Salvinn explained. "Cersei," he called out to the Vortixx, "Have you picked out the boat yet?"

IC: [The Seventh]"Ga-Koro?" she asked. "Well that's awesome. Be quick though."Another wave of pain coursed through her body, and she gritted her teeth as she realised that her arm had just died. "My bodily functions are shutting down."

IC: SalvinnSalvinn laughed, "I gotta hand it to you Sep, you sure are good at finding nutjobs. First that Toa of Plantlife, then me, and now this Matoran. No offence, Matoran."

IC: [The Seventh/Septimus]"NUTJOB?" the Seventh roared. "JUST WHO THE KARZ DO YOU THINK I AM? I AM A PARAGON OF BRAVERY AND COURAGE! I AM THE ONE WHO SHALL PIERCE THE HEAVENS AND BRING ENLIGHTENMENT TO THE ISLAND!"She paused for a moment, realising that one eye had shut down. "I'm also dying unless I get an influx of courage."Septimus shrugged. "We'll probably have to quickly help her somehow. I don't think I find nutjobs. I think I let off a nutjob aura."

IC: Salvinn"Say Sep, do you think she's one of the drug addicts that roam this Koro. Courage is probably slang for some sort of drug." Salvinn suggested.

OOC: Here, I'm starting this character off. Mark-bearer. Possibly cruelty/kindness.IC - Yuru - AlleySmoke rolled out of Yuru's mouth, slowly, as he re-lit his cigar."Now, this is really your fault." he said agonizingly.His blade was tapping the chin of the already-maimed Le-Matoran."If you hadn't been so...resistant."The blade made a cut on his victim's cheek. Blood rolled out quickly. He hadn't given the Matoran a quick death. Rather, a slow, painful one. Now, his blade drifted to the Matoran's chest."No one to blame but yourself."The sword cut his heart out, and Yuru chuckled at the scream. Putting his sword away, he left before anyone approached.

IC: [The Seventh]"Nah," said the Seventh, wincing as pain coursed through her lungs, shutting down one. She coughed. "I just have a magic tattoo that's fuelled by the POWER OF COURAGE."

IC: SalvinnSalvinn nearly choked, "A Mark, show me! Now!"

IC: [The Seventh]The Seventh coughed up some blood, one lung having failed. "Grey arm. Shoulder."

IC - Yuru - SteetYuru spent fifty widgets on a cloak, throwing it over himself and conceiving his blade.His mark was still glowing purple from his last actions. He felt on top of the world. OOC: Open for interaction.

IC: SalvinnSalvinn took a look at the Mark, sure enough it was nearly identical to his own, "Cersei, you may wish to take a look at this."

IC: [The Seventh]"I am dying you know," she said, coughing up large blob of blood. "One eye's gone, all my limbs have died and one lung has just collapsed on itself."

IC: SalvinnCallous it may be, but Salvinn had stopped paying attention to the Matoran. "Sep look at this."

IC: [Septimus/The Seventh]Septimus nodded, quickly looking at the tattoo on the other Matoran's shoulder. "It's rather similar to yours."Next to them, the Seventh felt her liver failing. "I'm sort of dying here."

IC: Salvinn"Do you know what this means Sep, there are others like me. I say we find them." Salvinn suggested.

IC: [Septimus/The Seventh]"Okay then," said the Plasma Matoran. "But let's leave that to later so we can help her.""Leave me to die will you," the Seventh coughed as more of her organs failed. "I suppose my heart will fail in about a minute."

IC - Yuru - StreetsSitting by the dock, Yuru felt the mark slowly fading."How quickly it ends..."He saw a Matoran fall out of a fishing boat. He obviously couldn't swim. But then...he saw him. He reached out for him. The Matoran needed him.He reached back out...but only to make vines grab the Matoran's feet. He was pulled under. The Mark shone through his cloak. Drunk on the feeling, he fell back, laughing like a madman.

IC: Salvinn"So," Salvinn began, "How exactly do we get her courage?" Then Salvinn saw a Matoran getting dragged underwater, "Nevermind," he said, before diving in afterwards, grabbing the Matoran starting to pull him out, only to find that the Matoran's feet were entangled in vines. Acting fast Salvinn used his Dagger to cut the vines, freeing the Matoran and pulling him upwards. All the while Salvinn was enjoying the feeling of hope.
