BZPRPG: Onu-Wahi

IC: VeritasVeritas headed for somewhere else, not knowing where exactly. Maybe some untouched, other cave for mining. I don't know exactly where. Maybe some lightstone cave or something, don't know what happened to them.OOC: For future reference, are the tunnels to Ta-Koro/Le-Wahi/lightstone cave blocked off, destroyed, flooded, etc?

IC: Aar

With a look of determined resolution, the Matoran followed the larger being.

OOC: Nice to see things happen again.

IC: Whorok.

Whorok had some idea about why Aar had decided to join the ussalry out of the blue, and he had to agree it was a clever choice, in the meantime, he kept waiting for Tarnok to show up.

IC: Feongulf ~"So, what exactly is this all about?" I growled up at the giant. "Specifically, don't give me anymore more vague hints that could mean anything, 'kay? Waste of both of our times."

IC:

"I felt like getting some fresh air."

IC(Kaerhi): "There is an entire island for that, Stranger."

IC:

"True, but this part of the island is closer to where I used to be."

IC(Kaerhi): "Hmmp." Kaerhi grunted. "Where did you used to be?"

IC:

"In Ko-Wahi."

IC(Kaerhi):

"You should keep walking then."

IC:

"She was hospitalized after sustaining severe injuries while pursuing a Ko-Toa. Said Toa was last seen heading toward Ko-Koro. According to this, she is still in intensive care, and not taking visitors."

OOC: was going to wait until my birthday to post this, but then I thought

now's good

Not a proper return, just the one post.

IC: Xerov (Some Form Of Nuthouse [but more likely a jail], Onu-Koro)

I need water.

It’s just out of my reach. I can’t move my arms. My head hurts. But I can almost bend over enough to reach it.

There’s water in some kind of container (not glass) on a table just out of my reach and my throat is sore and dry and raw, and I need water. I’m so close. Just a little further. Just a little...

I fall off my chair and hit the table, knocking it over. The water is just there, and I hold out my tongue as the liquid rolls toward me along the floor, hoping for even a drop to soothe me, but it veers off course. It takes me a moment to realise that the screaming has stopped.

It’s been there for as long as I can remember. But I can’t remember very much nowadays. It’s always been there in the background, reminding me of my pain. It takes me a second to realise that the screams were my own. People rush through the door and lift me up, fixing my chair and returning me to it. They take away the container, and I watch the little pool of water on the floor, see my reflection. I have a blue Kakama, and blue eyes. I didn’t know that. I’m sure that by this time tomorrow I won’t know it again.

What time is it? I try to turn my head, but my neck aches, and after struggling for a few seconds I return it to its previous position.

I don’t know who I am.

That has plagued me for as long as I can remember. But I can’t remember long. There’s a puddle of water on the floor, and I look into it, hoping to catch a glimpse of myself. I’m blue. I wonder how the puddle got there. There aren’t any windows on the ceiling, so it can’t have been the rain. It’s odd.

I’m thirsty.

Every time I close my eyes, I see faces. I don’t know who they are anymore, but I feel guilty every time they appear. It’s always the same few; a black Hau, a red Kaukau, a grey Huna, sometimes a green Pakari. I know that I did something wrong to these people, but I can’t remember what. I can’t even remember who I am. I can’t even remember my name.

I think I used to remember a lot of things. I’m not sure. I can’t even remember what I’m talking about. All I remember are the faces. Sometimes there are names with them. I’m fairly certain that whoever had the Kaukau is called Jalna, because I remember myself crying her name, over and over. I’m not sure why. It’s probably whatever I feel guilty for.

I have an odd moment of sense. My name is Xerov. I killed Jalna. Her brother Tarrhus tried to kill me. He failed. I killed Myka in the process. Now her friend Zyron probably wants to kill me too. I left Feongulf to hand myself over. Then I went insane.

There’s some water on the floor, and I’m not sure how it got there. There’s a face in it, looking back at me. I think it’s mine.

I need water.

OOC: Not open for interaction in the slightest.

IC:

"I should, but talking to you relieves the monotony of walking."

IC: VeritasVeritas thought of a place to go, as always. It has been a while since he'd mined, but he had other plans. Maybe the tunnels would be interesting. Other Wahi could be interesting. Veritas went back to doing things, and thought about it.

IC(Kaerhi):Females. "I assure you, walking is better."

IC:

"Really? Because I've been walking for two straight days now."

Velan sat down on a nearby stone, resisting the urge to smile.

"I think I'll be fine if I stop walking for a bit."

IC(Kaerhi):I hate females.Kaerhi gripped his scythe a little tighter. "And what, in your mind, is considered a bit?"

IC: VeritasVeritas headed for the tunnel leading to the lightstone cave. He could mine there. Veritas was bored, and mining there could be interesting. And also an opportunity to go to Le-Wahi or Ta-Koro. He smiled at this thought.

IC:

"Until I'm rested, and able to walk the rest of the way."

IC(Kaerhi): Kaerhi attempted to crunch some numbers in his head on how long that would be, but failed utterly. "Fine." He put away his scythe and leaped up on a rock, opposite of...her. He started throwing rocks again at the Rahi, a little more violently then last time.

IC:

"Aim a little to the left. They seem to know you're after them."

IC(Kaerhi):You don't need another murder charge, you don't need another murder charge, you.. "Thank you." he growled slightly, throwing to the right instead.

IC:

Mission accomplished.

IC(Kaerhi): Kaerhi picked up a larger stone and chucked it at the Rahi. Instead of knocking them over, it crushed one completely. Kaerhi chuckled quietly to himself. I should have been doing that since the start.

IC:

"Nice aim. But messy. You should learn to be more subtle."

As she said this, she created a orb of water, which turned into a blob and traveled towards another Rahi. When it reached the creature, it engulfed it, holding the Rahi inside of it until it ran out of air and drowned. When it was done, the water simply collapsed, splashing onto the ground.

"It's hard to figure out how something drowned above ground, with no water in sight."

IC(Kaerhi):You should be more subtle and disappear. Kaerhi looked directly at her. "That's all fine and dandy if you're afraid of getting caught."

IC:

"And throwing a large rock won't?"

IC(Kaerhi):

"I happen to like throwing rocks, Stranger."

IC:

"Keep doing what you enjoy then."

IC(Kaerhi):

"You know what else I enjoy? Being alone." he retorted, smirking slightly.

IC:

"If you weren't by a road, maybe you'd be alone."

IC(Kaerhi):

"Do you know where we are? Above Onu-Koro." He swung his arms around. "THERE IS NO ROADS."

IC:

"There's a dirt road."

IC(Kaerhi):

Kaerhi glared at her, then looked down from his stone perch. Sure enough, there was a dirt road, winding it's way between the rocks. Invisible, probably, from ground level, but clear as daylight from higher up. He looked back up at her. "You...."

IC:

"Please, continue."

IC(Kaerhi):

Kaerhi sighed loudly. "What are you? WHO are you? Are you sent by the Great Spirit or something?" he asked in disdain and exasperation.

IC:

"Well. By the looks of it, I'm a Toa. A Toa of Water to be exact. My name is Velan. And I don't believe in that religious ."

IC(Kaerhi):

"Skakdi. Kaerhi. And I don't either. I assumed you did, being a Toa."

IC:

"That's called Stereotyping. People shouldn't do that."

IC(Kaerhi):

"People shouldn't do a lot of things. Stereotype, murder, steal, bug people on the road, kidnap...."

IC:

"That doesn't stop them from doing that."
