I will hold them off. You best ride back and tell the others.

*Lytra is found riding behind the company urgently trying to find them. Her beast breathing hard and sweating profusely has not the heart to give up when she needs him. She finds them stopped, and all calm she may have appeared to have now disappears. Wide-eyed and wild, she forgets to speak in the common language as she warns them.*
"Hlarnye! I tiralta ná orta, et ar linta! turya ná úmë cala!"
(Litterally, "Hear me! The great guard is risen, forth and swift! His control is not light!")
*Gouturan begins to pulse once more, at first slowly and then strongly. The Elves heard a strong beat, and as it becomes stronger, it is heard and felt by all. The sheer power of the sound is enough to make Men fall to their knees and all strength fail as the wind begins to blow strongly. Silver leaves are blown down from the towering branches of the glittering trees, and the creature again makes itself known. The guardian of the forest, a great silver dragon whose wrath is known and feared among the Elves of Celeb Taurornrim, comes bellowing angrily into view. Easily twice the size of Barakul's great eagle, he comes to right what to him feels so wrong. The first fiery breath this dragon has had to take in centuries is aimed at noneother than the eagle. The hellish flames are so much, that nothing remains of the bird but charred bones. At this, Lytra's beast fears for her and runs, getting her far from the dragon's wrath, despite Lytra's objections.*
*The Guardian lands and bellows another deep and powerful cry challenging any of them willing, however foolish, to test his wrath and flame*
Astaldolosswen
01-29-2003, 12:00 AM
*Astaldolosswen notices Lytra and then she sees that the dragon has awoken and falls into a deep fear, for she knows how deadly the dragon is. She nods to Lytra and she yells*
"DO NOT FIGHT HIM! OTHERWISE, IT WILL BE YOUR LIFE!" *she stops yelling, but seriously, and fiercely she says* "He is the guardian of this forest and he has come to defend it. He felt that the eagle was invading his territory, so he destroyed it. Barakul, I strongly urge you not to attack in vain of your eagle. He will kill you on the first blow. If he can destroy your eagle, he can easily destroy us. He has never lost a fight in the air or in flame. He will not go down easily. We must fight together, but I do not feel that we will win, but we must try so we can destroy the Dark Blade."
*brings her bow off of her back and takes an arrow from her quiver, places it on, and takes aim.*
"If you will fight, fight as a team!"
Lossen Vana
01-29-2003, 12:03 AM
Sees the dragon and stops killing Orcs. She races back to the rest.
DRAGON!!!!
Astaldolosswen
01-29-2003, 12:04 AM
*notices that Lossen and Glory are behind the dragon and are being chased by orcs. a look of worry comes over her face* "Lossen! Glory! Hurry! I will hold them off from here! Just get past the dragon unharmed! We will need your help to beat him!" *she takes the bow and arrow and aims it at the head of the orc attacking Lossen. She then shoots and kills him. She continues this until they get by them*
Lossen Vana
01-29-2003, 12:25 AM
The dragon sees them comming and belches out a heap of fire. It burns most of the orc and almost Lossen and her companion. She then takes her horse and like lightning manages to just barely get past him. She then stops her horse infront of the dragon, and disrupts his concetration and makes him focus on her so that Glory could get by. Her horse was much faster then the dragons breath so she could easily keep him occupied.

OOC: Sorry I didn't post! I had two finals today!!!
IC:
May grabs her bow and and aims it at the dragon. She fires and she sees, it doesn't almost nothing. She quickly takes out two arrows, and once again aims it at the dragon. As she fires she aims for the eye, hoping to blind it.
OOC: Someone else decide whether it hit the dragon in the eye.
Lossen Vana
01-29-2003, 01:29 AM
She missed his eye and hit right up his nostril. It proved the same point and was just as painful. He then began to claw at the arrow that was slowly working it way up to his brain. As her pulled it out he was more infurated, and swept his long tail at Lossen and knocked her and her horse off her feet. She got up quickly and so did her horse but the dragon had quickly trapped them, and with his intellgent mind began to think up a plan on how to cook her.
Astaldolosswen
01-29-2003, 03:01 AM
*is frustrated because she told them not to attack the dragon*
"I told you not to attack him alone!!!!!" *she is infuriated* "I warned you not to attack because he IS a dragon!! He is quite strong and powerful. Us Elves of Celeb Taurornrim are quite afraid of him when he awakens!! We cannot beat him on our own with our full troops!!"
*she shakes her head and sighs. Then takes her bow and arrow and shoots an arrow into his eye. She blinds him with the arrow, then pulls out her sword. She notices that it is brighter than usual. She stares at it in wonder and amazement. She then decides to use it against the dragon. She smiles as she knows she found the way to defeat the dragon*
"Prepare to die dragon!!" *She charges at the dragon and slashes at him with all her might and the might of her ancestors sword. She penatrates the skin of the mighty dragon*
Lossen Vana
01-29-2003, 03:26 AM
She didn't intentionly try to get into that postion she was just tring to distract him so Glory could get free. Now where she was she feared she would die, so she began to shoot at the dragon in final hopes.

((Lossen, dear, the dragon is under my control, not yours considering the fact he falls under 'nature', so anything you may have said about the dragon you can pretty much assume did not happen. For fact, no he did not get hit in the eye, and no, he did not get hit in the nostril either. Neither did he have any need to cook you Lossen. :) ))
((Katie-dear, no, you really don't have control of the dragon either, I had you post my post before, but the dragon is still in my control range.))
((I'm sorry to have to warn both of you, but some things need to remain in my control for story-line purposes, the dragon is one of them. If he really wanted to kill you, he could have done it before. As far as any of you know, he could have simply mistaken one of you for orcs or intruders that he does not know the intention of. Astaldolosswen should know better, she grew up in Celeb Taurornrim, though I do have some fault for not telling you more about him Katie. Though know now that you should not have felt a need to attack your protector. :) ))
*the orcs in fear attack the dragon before the Elves and the Dwarf, and the dragon in reply attacks them first. Orcs, being easy enough to get rid of for a dragon, don't last long, and those that live have fled for their lives.*
*The dragon turns and looks at Astaldolosswen, and recognizes her, and with one strong exhale knows why they are there and decides not to attack unless attacked first.*
*Lossen's arrows annoy the dragon, yes, and did take a swipe at her to get her to stop, but not even with half the strength he could have used, not at all meaning to kill her, though the blow is still undoubtebly strong.*
*With some thought he understands why they are in a stance of attack, and lies down in hopes that they will understand his intentions*
WarriorMay
01-29-2003, 04:55 AM
May runs over to Lossen and says, "Are you hurt?"
She looks over to the dragon that now lays on the ground. She understands that it has no intention of hurting the dragon, and lowers down her bow.
Lossen Vana
01-29-2003, 06:27 PM
No just badly shocked. I think it hurt my pride more then it hurt me. I thought I could take him to protect everybody.
She then notices a small bloody wound coming from her stomach from where she topled off her horse and hit the ground. The more she talked the more blood rushed out. She then looked at May.
Althought this wound may be a slight problem.
She said with scarcasim attempting to lighting the situation with her wound. Her horse on the other hand, hadn't got much of an injury and came over along with her dog to comfort there wounded master. Artego then began to cry, silver tears streamed down his cheaks and onto Lossens stomach, stopping the blood and closeing the wound.
Astaldolosswen
01-29-2003, 11:17 PM
*goes over by the dragon and smiles*
"It's good to see that you recognized me. I'm sorry about my friends, its just that they don't usually see a friendly dragon."
*looks over by May and Lossen*
"Lossen, are you going to be alright? Because he didn't mean to harm you. Its just that the arrows began to bother him. He is our protector. He must have thought you were orcs or something, for he recognized me."
*smiles when she sees that Lossen is healing quite quickly. She gives the dragon a slight pat on the side, then goes over by May and Lossen.*
"How about we bandage that up before we leave? Just to be safe."
*she pulls out some bandages for her wound*
Lossen Vana
01-29-2003, 11:23 PM
She takes the bandages nad wraps it up snugly.
Sorry for shooting you fellow dragon. It is just not mant meet a friendly dragon these day.
Astaldolosswen
01-29-2003, 11:41 PM
*Astaldolosswen says*
"That is quite alright. He thought you were orcs. So, I suppose you had a reason to defend yourselves. But he will bring no harm to us. He will only protect us. He is a good friend to us in our village."
*gives the dragon a piece of scrape meat from her pack*
Lossen Vana
01-29-2003, 11:43 PM
Calls Mor off. He seamed to still be growling at him in protection of his master.
Astaldolosswen
01-30-2003, 12:09 AM
*notices that Mor is still growling*
"It is alright Mor. He will not harm us. He is a protector of my village. He is a good friend of ours."
*she looks at the dragon and asks*
"Do you think you could come with us until the edge of the village? Or no?"
*hopes that he can*
Lossen Vana
01-30-2003, 12:28 AM
She pets her dog but he still isn't to sure of the dragon. He was afraid of it and angry. Lossen then picks up her dog even though her is heavy and carries him out of the sight of the dragon.
WarriorMay
01-30-2003, 12:44 AM
May stands in awe at the dragon. She looks up. Beautiful like any other dragon. May has never stood so close to one with out having her sword in it.
Lossen Vana
01-30-2003, 12:47 AM
Laughes and after reading Mays mind agrees.

OOC: Thank You!
IC:
*sees May's awe and says*
"You can touch him if you want. He does not want to harm you. He will let you touch him if you want. He is very kind, except to invaders as you could see with the eagle unfortunately. Barakul, I'm truely sorry about your loss, but the dragon felt that his territory was being invaded by the eagle."
WarriorMay
01-30-2003, 06:47 AM
May suddenly remembers about Barakul's bird and turns to Barakul, "So sorry about...well...you know."
She puts her hand on his shoulder and bow her head.
Lossen Vana
01-31-2003, 12:31 AM
Nods and says:
Silailye pella gurth! (mayest thou shine beyond death!)
She bowed to Barakul and prayed more before the bird.
Astaldolosswen
01-31-2003, 12:53 AM
"I am dreadfully sorry for your loss Barakul. I know your pain believe it or not. I lost my mother when I was very young and I lost my father a few hundred years later. I was very close to my father, and then, he disappeared and I had no idea where he went."
*remembers the pain and she looks down in her sadness. a small tear rolls down her cheek in pain. looks back at them*
"I am sorry about that. Just a painful memory. I really loved my father. He was the greatest to me when I was young. He did a lot of traveling and I went with him." *bows her head again in sadness* "But that is in the past, and my father taught me everything I know, and even gave me his sword, which has been passed down throughout my family for generations. It is very old and magical."
*gives a slight smile and then is sad again*
WarriorMay
01-31-2003, 01:14 AM
Astaldolosswen's memory of her father fills May with sadness. Astaldolosswen at least had memories of her father and mother, while May grew up with a man, a lone traveler, without parents. She could remember it clearly, leaving him and searching for family. But there was no success. She gave up, knowing she would never find them.
"You are lucky you got to share memories Astaldolosswen." she says with a small smile.
Lossen Vana
01-31-2003, 01:16 AM
Yes and at least you had parents that cared. Mine never did.
She let out a long sigh.
Astaldolosswen
01-31-2003, 01:48 AM
*sees that Lossen had a rough life as well and May never had the joy of a family really*
"I am truely sorry about that, for the both of you."
Lossen Vana
01-31-2003, 02:23 AM
She with a half turn bows. Then with a almost strickened voice speaks. Then it lightins
Auto i lome! Siluvalmet-esse rom! (The night is passing! We will shine in trumpet sound!)
Her face broke out into a smile. She hoped her words would lead to some comfedence amoust the group.
WarriorMay
01-31-2003, 06:16 AM
With the thought of no parents, May's spirit is suddenly dampened. She tries to let out a smile, but it is all too fake.
OOC: Lytra is here with us, right?
Glory
01-31-2003, 06:43 PM
OCC: ((I've been busy with school...mmm okay i'll cacht up...I think lytra is with us but i'm not sure.))
*Glory has been quiet most of the time just looking alternatively from the dragon to her companions. She just growls at the mention of the word "parents" and seems a little bit upset about the topic of conversation but the others don't know why. She just nods at them and goes to sit far away from them. She looks at the sky and stayed like this for a few minutes*
*Then she stands up and goes to stare at the dragon, its seemed almost like there was some kind of mind reading-speaking between Glory and the dragon*
*After a while of this "chat", she bows at the Dragon and walks backward until she is right in front of May and smiles warmly to her*
"Do not worry about that, I'm sure they had a good reason to left you."
*Pats her in the shoulder, turns and lights a fire* "we shall camp here" *looks at the ashes of barakul's eagle and makes no comments about the lost only mutters something about "bury" for herself.*
*Glory stands up and seems to grow taller as she says* "We can't stay here in grieve for ourselves," *when she says this part she glances at May, Lossen and Astaldolosswen* "nor for others." *she glances at the eagle's ashes* "We have a long journey ahead and the posibility of failing seems to me our greatest problem" *An expression of greatness and wisdom is seen on her face. Along with an unusual brightness in her eyes.* ".. the danger has and will increase every time we approach to our gold but we shall not loss our hopes otherwise we shall fail." *she sits and again she look like the quiet and like the simple creature who she was*
Lossen Vana
01-31-2003, 09:41 PM
Artego gets back onto his feet and Lossen jumps back ontop of him, awaiting the comand to go. Then she thinks about Barakul and wonders where he went off to.
Astaldolosswen
02-01-2003, 12:18 AM
"Glory is right. We cannot grieve for ourselves or others. We will rest here for the night with the protection of the dragon."
Lossen Vana
02-01-2003, 01:04 AM
Seeing that it looked like they were going to stay here for the night, she dismounted. Dismayed and wanting to move on.
Glory
02-01-2003, 04:15 AM
"you all should sleep i'll go to scout around" *she stands and walks fastly until she is lost from al sight in the darkness of the night*
WarriorMay
02-01-2003, 08:09 AM
May notices the odd way Glory has been acting. "Did you notice something about Glory?" she says looking into the direction Glory left.
"I feel as if there was something wrong..."
Glory
02-01-2003, 08:14 AM
*Glory indeed has been quiet most of the time and resting apart most of the journey. The feeling that the end is near is upon her heart. Now she is scouting around as she walks into the darkness her body almost blends with the dark shadows hiding her from sight almost like she were invisible she moves quickly in the ground covering great distances in few minutes*
Lossen Vana
02-01-2003, 08:26 PM
She nods and agrees. She wasn't very tired more worried then anything.
I will take the first watch.
And she set herself at the edge of the camp with a blanket around her.
WarriorMay
02-01-2003, 09:11 PM
May could not rest. She was filled up with too much energy. She sat down and humed an elvish song. One she had heard a long time ago.
Lossen Vana
02-01-2003, 11:30 PM
Thats very pretty. Where did you learn it?
WarriorMay
02-02-2003, 12:42 AM
"It was sung to me by my..." May searches for a word to call him...what would she call him?
"By my father...I suppose."
Lossen Vana
02-02-2003, 12:56 AM
Well it still is very beautiful
A tear trickles down her cheak remebering her family. Her dog then comes over and comforts her.
Glory
02-02-2003, 01:56 AM
*suddendly Glory jumps out from the bushes scaring May and Lossen, she laughts* "you two should be more alert if I had been an enemy..."
Lossen Vana
02-02-2003, 02:32 AM
Lossen dosn't move.
I knew you were there. It is just I thought I would let you have some fun.
She said calmly. Then grins and has a good laugh.
Glory
02-02-2003, 02:43 AM
*laughts and glares at her as soons as she hears her answer* "so you tried to trick me? huh?" *shakes her head smiling at Lossen* "bad elf, bad elf....I'll make you pay for that one" *pokes her with a stick*
Lossen Vana
02-02-2003, 02:51 AM
Mor sees the stick and thinking it is a game comes over and grabs it and drops it at Lossens feet. She snickers, and grins.
Glory
02-02-2003, 02:59 AM
*laughts she is having a nice time, picks up the stick and throws it in the air hoping to play with Mor*
Lossen Vana
02-02-2003, 03:01 AM
Bounds off after the stick. He catches it in mid air then drops it at Glorys feet siting and lolling out his tounge in the "I'm a good dog" posture.
Glory
02-02-2003, 03:30 AM
*grabs it and throws the stick again smiling at the good dog*
Lossen Vana
02-02-2003, 03:33 AM
As he sees the stick fly threw the air again, so dose he, then not aiming right dose a backflip as he catches it in his mouth lnding on his back. Then he trots over again and drops the stick.
Glory
02-02-2003, 04:00 AM
*she throws the stick over and over again until, both elf and dog are tired of the game and fall alsleept in sweet dreams*
Lossen Vana
02-02-2003, 06:21 PM
Mor snuggles up to Glory. Lossen looks on and whispers.
She must be really luckey. My dog never warms up to anybody like that.

02-02-2003, 07:52 PM
((No, I'm sorry to say that Lytra is not with you, her horse carried her away as the dragon was in rage...))
*As day breaks, the company feels very urged to go, and the elves get a sense from the dragon that they have wasted now time they should have used for the better, for he feels the evil from the south stronger than ever and does not wish to stop until it is taken care of. He growls lowly, gets up, and begins walking in that direction, not waiting for the company for he desperately aches to end this so challenging power.*
WarriorMay
02-02-2003, 09:08 PM
May watches the dragon leave for the south. "We must go. We have lost much traveling time."
She gets up and mounts Iarabeleth. She waits for the others looking south.
Lossen Vana
02-02-2003, 10:25 PM
Lossen jumps onto her horses back, and her dog springs up ready for action. The start at a slow trot then quickly pick up speed, not wanting to be left behind.
Glory
02-03-2003, 01:23 AM
*looks ups to the sky and runs fastly after the others, picking really quickly the pace* "I left isílme rest a while, but as you all can see I can run pretty fast"
Lossen Vana
02-03-2003, 01:51 AM
It is amazing that you are almost as fast as my horse. I shall have to race you some day on him if we ever come out of this alieve
Glory
02-03-2003, 01:56 AM
*smiles* "Yes I shall race with your horse someday, she seems pretty fast...it's hard to keep the pace" *laughts as she runs ahead of them*
Lossen Vana
02-03-2003, 02:00 AM
She then whispers some words to Artego in elfish wich makes his eyes show all his fury and passion. He speed up and passed Glory. Lossen laughing ontop.
Glory
02-03-2003, 02:08 AM
*mannages to speed up until she is runing right next to Artego* "you......lets call it even....." :o
Lossen Vana
02-03-2003, 04:04 AM
She slows her horse down, much to his diaproval.
Where do you learn to run like that? It is amazing!
Glory
02-03-2003, 04:12 AM
"amazing?" *lol* "yes I think you could be right" *smiles and pats Artego* "and as for the matter of learning, I learned throught experience..I travelled for many years without horse, I think this is actually the first time I'm travelling on a horse"
WarriorMay
02-04-2003, 12:49 AM
May continues to ride, trying her best to stay behind the dragon. She looks behind her, checking on the others to see if they are following.
"Alright back there?" she calls out.
Lossen Vana
02-04-2003, 12:54 AM
Lossen replys with a yes. And Artego nickers.
You must teach me your skill. It may come in handy.
Artego grinds his teeth in diaporval of her not ridding and running instead.
goofoofighter
02-04-2003, 02:16 AM
*A cry is heard far off that has not been heard for centuries, though not all too much unfamiliar. It reminds some of the Guardian in rage. He looks off eastward as they travel, and with another low growl that sounds quite challenging, he hunkers down and with a grace seemingly impossible for a creature so large, spreads wide silver wings and flies at an altitude that is 'just above the ground' for him.*
*The riders on horseback and the travelers on foot find themselves too slow now, and must quicken the pace if they want to keep up with Tirninquë White Guard*
Astaldolosswen
02-04-2003, 02:26 AM
((sorry about not posting in a while. I had friends over the weekend and I had homework the other nights))
*was at the back of the group, then sees Glory and Lossen trying each others skills at ridding. she giggles to see them having so much fun even though their suppose to be concentrating on the matters at hand. she wonders how their suppose to destroy the Dark Blade. she then gives her horse a little encouragement to go a slight bit faster so she doesn't fall behind. she thinks to herself*
How are we to destroy the Dark Blade once we find it? What will we encounter when we find it? What will we have to fight to get to it? Will we even survive? I wish Lytra had told us how to destroy the Dark Blade. How will we fight whatever might be guarding the Dark Blade? So many questions, so many answers. So much to do, too little time.
*she catches up with the rest and rides in silence with her thoughts, when one of the awful images of death and pain comes to her mind. she nearly falls off of her horse but quickly recovers and wonders what will happen in their future*
Astaldolosswen
02-04-2003, 02:57 AM
*she quickens the pace so her stallion is going as quick as he can and he is keeping up with Tirninquë White Guard quite easily. she yells to the others*
"Something must be up! Otherwise, he wouldn't be going this fast!"
*she continues to urge her stallion on in elvish and then she is right below him*
Glory
02-04-2003, 04:29 AM
*nods at may and replies* "I'm okay" *smiles at Lossen then laughts when she sees Artego's face she replies in elvish* I shall teach you one day .........and for you nice horse don't worry even I, need to ride sometimes besides No human nor elf can match with you in speed *coughs* besides me ;) *looks at the dragon flying* "oh no I can't help my feeth anymore I'll call Isílme" *whistles*
Lossen Vana
02-04-2003, 07:58 PM
Her horse seamed to except her responce except for a loud snort.
Glory
02-04-2003, 08:31 PM
*isílme comes runing glory jumps and mounts in her* "whoa! that's better" *rides quickly almost behind the dragon*
Lossen Vana
02-04-2003, 09:11 PM
Artego gave a quick jolt and steped high trying to prove dominace over the other horse. Lossen quiets him.
Funny I have never seen him act so strange before.
Glory
02-04-2003, 09:26 PM
*laughts* "careful artego, she's quite fast" *Isílme prances with joy*
Lossen Vana
02-04-2003, 10:14 PM
Artego snorts at her comment, and the red fire of his anger danced in his eyes. His nostrils then quivered releasing gusts of air, then he bolted off infront of the other horse, not letting him in the lead.
Glory
02-04-2003, 11:03 PM
OCC: Isílme is a female horse *cough*
*isílme look at the other horse as she were thinking he was too childlish* "hey, don't be like that I raced with him" *isílme prances and glory's face turns serious* "erm.. you are no fun...what's wrong with having anice time? huh?...." *roll eyes* "NO, I don't agree besides you need the excersise" *Glory's comment seems to make mad her horse she has aface as she were thinking: "keep like that and you'll be on your own"*
Lossen Vana
02-04-2003, 11:09 PM
OOC: LOL sorry. Maybe that is why Artego is acting funny, he is in love!
BIC: Artego prances infront of the female. Flicking his tail back and froth and shaking his mane as if he was courting the other horse. He then let out a loud NEIGH and threw his head back and forth in a wild frenzy.
Astaldolosswen
02-04-2003, 11:44 PM
*she looks back at the others*
"Hurry! Something is wrong if Tirninquë White Guard is going this fast! This is no time for games!"
*she looks ahead at what could be coming and wonders what is the problem. she remembers the awful image of death and pain and decides to ask her horse to go faster and keep up with Tirninquë White Guard's shoulders (shadow). he goes faster and is up to Tirninquë White Guard's shoulders (shadow).*

Artego still acting funny dosn't go any faster. He just continues to prance infront of the other horse like a love struck pony.
WarriorMay
02-05-2003, 03:26 AM
May rides faster than ever. Iarabeleth tires her best to keeps up with Tirninquë White Guard. She rides barely ahead of Astaldolosswen says, "What do you think is wrong?"
Iarabeleth lets out a loud snort in discomfort. May says in elvish, "I am sorry, but we must keep up."

*Tirninquë flys very dutifully, though silently as if listening. The beating of his wings keeps the wind gusting, though not too hard. In moments of silence, it seems strange to hear the gentle thudding of dragon's wings, however it is odd how they happen to be so quiet despite their size.*
((I can just image it Lossen! Artego prancing around, tail and head held high, tossing his main in the wind. Lucky us, Astaldolosswen and I witnessed an arabian do it while we were there grooming the horses. Boy was she so beautiful! Ran right up to us. Amazing really.))

*while Tirninquë White Guard flies upon them Isíme whinnies at artego's courting* "erm.. wait you guys....you'll have time to do your "issues" when, when ...i don't know..but certainly not right now! " *glory say scared at the idea of the two horses.....being together while they mount on them.. Isíme neigh at Artego like accepting his courting*
Lossen Vana
02-05-2003, 06:54 PM
Artego flung his main, happy that the female accepted him, then walked over to her and nuzzled her. Lossen looked down apon them and truely wished her horse hadn't picked this time to be romantic. She tryed to cox them apart but it was no use. Artego was head over hooves and there was nothing she could do now.
((But they sure would be beautiful))
Astaldolosswen
02-05-2003, 11:46 PM
*answers May's question*
"I do not know, but it is definately important and most likely bad."
*asks Vanya Ninquë to go faster and he does as well as he can*
WarriorMay
02-06-2003, 01:24 AM
May looks back checking on the others. "What's going on back there?" she calls out.
Lossen Vana
02-06-2003, 01:58 AM
Lossen yells forward.
Nothing much other then two love struck horses.
Astaldolosswen
02-06-2003, 03:59 AM

"What are your horses doing? and tell them it can wait!"
*looks forward at where they are going*

Lossen Vana
02-06-2003, 06:42 PM
She trys to move her horse away but it is no use. Artego was staying put no matter what.
Sorry but I don't think I can part these guys!

*Isílme nuzzled him back, and runs happier not paying attention to glory's objections in elvish. Glory sighs* "ahh she is so obstinate I don't think I can convince her..."
WarriorMay
02-07-2003, 12:51 AM
Iarabeleth starts to slow down. She snorts in objection to going any faster.
"Iarabeleth!" May says trying to get the horse moving. Iarabeleth gives in and speeds up. "We cannot keep this up, we must hurry!"
Astaldolosswen
02-07-2003, 01:20 AM
*yells back to the two horses in elvish*
"Nauva elyë pusta ta! (Will you stop it!) Elmë harya ya lelya linta! (We have to go swift!)"
*she looks forward again and hope that they will listen. she wonders what could be wrong. she speeds up and hopes to find out what will happen*
WarriorMay
02-07-2003, 02:33 AM
May rides at the same speed as Astaldolosswen, Iarabeleth tired and under stress struggles to do as May tells so.
"We must catch up quickly, our horses will not last." May says with a very shaky voice. She worries for her horse, afraid she might have over done it.
OOC: Wow, those are stubborn horses. *lol*
Astaldolosswen
02-07-2003, 03:12 AM
OOC:Yeah, I know. I have seen horses be that stubborn too. Goofoo and I were trying to groom one, and she wouldn't even let us put the halter on.
IC:*sighs and gains speed. she catches up to Tirninquë and keeps up to him for quite a while*
"Hurry! Your horses are slowing us down!"
Lossen Vana
02-07-2003, 03:29 AM
Artego nuzzles her back and nickers. Lossen is still stuggling with him and desides that only this one she would use a halter on him, so out from her pack she pulled a beautiful one that was passed down by the elves in her family. Artego got one look at it and with a snort threw Lossen off. Lossen was fine, but she was very mad at her horse, told him that if he wanted to stay with the other horse it was fine by her but she was going forward with the others, and ran ahead with her dog.
Astaldolosswen
02-07-2003, 05:00 AM
*looks back and thinks*
Oh dear, now her horse is going to get it. We are in a hurry and we can not have somebody running because her horse is being stubbornly in love.
*she turns around and heads toward Artego at top speed. she reaches him, then gives him a good slap as for they do not have time to court another horse. the other horse would most likely speed up with him. she says*
"Now lets get going!"
*races back by May's side and hopes that Artego will let Lossen ride him so they can keep up with Tirninquë*
Lossen Vana
02-07-2003, 10:06 PM
Artego rears in anger. He wasn't happy being seperated, or slapped. He neighed loudly. If Lossen wanted to go with them at there pace she could, but as far as he was concerened he was going to stay with the female. He began to grow a haterd towards others after that.
Astaldolosswen
02-07-2003, 11:12 PM
*she decides to go back and have Lossen ride with her.*
"Come on!"
*she offers to let Lossen ride on her horse with her*
WarriorMay
02-08-2003, 01:53 AM
May rides ahead of the others. Iarabeleth comes to a very steady breathing. May happy that her horse is able to cope, promises a reward.
May took a glance back, checking on what happened to Astaldolosswen. Looking foward again, May tells her horse, "I'm glad you don't attract other horses like that."
Lossen Vana
02-08-2003, 03:44 AM
Lossen ran over and jumped on the other horse with ease. Artego gave a loud neigh and a snort and bolted over as if Lossen was only suppose to ride him. Lossen then got back on him, and her reared and speed up infront of the others showing all that he was the top horse, and that only Lossen would have the privalage of ridding him. Then Artego looked back at the horse he loved and slowly let the other horses pick up speed so now he was back with Glorys horse. Lossen sighed.
This is hopeless.
WarriorMay
02-08-2003, 03:53 AM
Iarabeleth seemed to protest against such a horse, one that did not do as the master told so. She gave out loud snorts as if saying something to Artego.
May gave a little nudge and Iarabeleth picked up some more speed, realizinf she had slowed down a little. "That's it girl, we're almost there."
She looked behind once again to check on the others, making sure that they were still in sight.
Lossen Vana
02-08-2003, 08:10 PM
Artego snorted back, and half reared. Lossen then finally got him under control. He nickered then began behaving again. Lossen then steared him up with the others not understanding her horses behavoir today.
WarriorMay
02-08-2003, 11:19 PM
May rode quite ahead of the others, she was eager to reach whatever it was that had made Tirninquë move so quickly.
Astaldolosswen
02-09-2003, 05:07 AM
OOC:Sorry I haven't posted since yesterday. I had all day, but I found out that my neighbors had to put down one of their horses because she had an intestinal(sp?) infection. I am soo sad because she was only 7 years old and that is kind of young for a horse. She never had a chance to really live her life to the fullest. She was very playful and she was my favorite even though I didn't want to choose favorites. *a tear rolls down cheek. is very sad* She was a gluten, but very beautiful.
IC:*tells her horse to go faster so they can keep up and keep Artego in check. She trusts Vanya Ninquë with her life and knows that he wouldn't go and court another horse while they had to move quickly. she catches up with May and goes a slight bit faster. she is just glad that her horse isn't going head over heels over another horse.*
"We must keep going and quickly! No more time for lovey-dovey stuff between the horses! My stallion will try to keep the two in check as long as he can, but that might not be very long. He does not like other horses trying to show him up. We better hurry!"
*goes faster yet and passes up Lossen and Artego as they are in a major hurry*
WarriorMay
02-09-2003, 05:51 AM
May and Iarabeleth keep pace with Astaldolosswen. "Tirninquë is a fast one, don't you think?"
Iarabeleth snorts in agreement, "Well, not that it's a very good thing."
May quickly pats Iarabeleth on the neck, showing her apologies for having to make her work so hard.
Lossen Vana
02-09-2003, 06:24 PM
Artego snorts and rears as Astaldolosswen's horse passes him. Lossen then hangs on knowing her horse was going to bolt or try and fight again. More the less the horse had power over her, she had found him on a ship, and he was very wild and untamed then. She sighed thinking maybe she should have picked a tamer horse.
Artego then lunged forward and passed Astaldolosswen's horse, then slowed to a stedy trot infront of him. The fire was buring bright in his eyes.
OOC: That is so sad. Huggles.
WarriorMay
02-09-2003, 08:06 PM
Iarabeleth didn't like the way Artego was acting. They were trying to get somewhere, there wasn't time so be changeling and showing off. Iarabeleth speed up and kept speed with Artego, she kept it steady enough that May had to worry about falling off.
"Artego's a little bit of a...trouble maker, isn't he?" May said to Lossen with a grin.
Iarabeleth snorted in agreement.

OCC: :( ...I know how do you feel
Lossen Vana
02-09-2003, 08:11 PM
As if by magic once Artego heard Isílme's voice he became almost a perfect gentleman. Lossen sighed.
Yea unfortanatly, and it seams that only Isílme can calm him down.
To May in E.S.P.
Whether Glory likes it or not I may give her my horse as a present.

WarriorMay
02-09-2003, 08:57 PM
May lets out a laugh as Iarabeleth catches speed and continues on her way.
OOC: Does anyone know when we're going to stop running? I was just a bit curious because...well...I'd like to move on.
Astaldolosswen
02-09-2003, 09:01 PM
*her horse didn't like being showed off at because back home he was the top horse. he gained speed to show to Artego that he was the top horse at home and will be the top horse here. he gives a loud snort to Artego as he passes him as if saying, I'm the top horse here, not you. Astaldolosswen knows that he does not like being showed off at and knows that he will not let Artego be the top horse.*
"Artego has too much of a wild spirit. Don't you think Lossen? He seems quite wild."*she says as she passes her up and gives her a slight grin but is gone just as quick*
OOC:I don't know, but I can ask goofoo tomorrow or if she calls me tonight asking where her band music is. ^^" She always forgets something at my house when she comes over.

02-09-2003, 09:12 PM
*astaldolosswen's stallion, not like seeing another horse go faster then him, goes even faster and passes her up.*
"I guess he doesn't like having someone else in front of him." *she says with a grin* "He really doesn't like other horses showing off or challenging him I guess." *smiles. ^^*
Lossen Vana
02-09-2003, 09:16 PM
I agree and honestly I don't know what to do with him. I found him on a ship that I once was on, and nobody laid claim to him. I think they may have been relesing him into the wild or something because he sure isn't tame.
Artego snorted and bucked and passed the horse again. The Lossen got off of him. She was tired of his antics. She gave him a hug and took all her various gear off of him, she was going to set him free. That was where he belonged. Artego seamed to understand her but didn't really feel like leaving. He just snorted and tried to half kick Lossen now having a total distrust of all humans. Lossen got out of the way quickly and desided that the next place that she can buy a horse she would. But she regreted the fact that she couldn't control the savage in Artego.
His eyes were glazed over with hatred as he ran off into the woods, neighing in a high pitch eire screem, that made Lossen shutter.
Mor came over and nuzzled Lossen as she wasn't feeling very happy at the moment. Mor then let Lossen ties all the goods to his back.
Good thing I have a friend like you Mor of I don't know what I would do.
She patted him on the head and began walking again, only stopping to listen to the wild screams of a horse that was once hers.
Astaldolosswen
02-09-2003, 09:20 PM
*goes by Lossen and offers her a ride*
"Hop on until we get to the next town where you can get a horse to ride. We don't have time to let you walk."
Lossen Vana
02-09-2003, 09:24 PM
Lossen gets on the horse, she was saddened by her loss. She had come to like the spirt in her horse and felt that she could break him and have him to own for herself. She underestamted the horse and now he had run off. She sighed but at least she had her dog. He was happily racing behind the other horses like he had done before, just this time with more speed, seeing that he wasn't to sure that they had seen the last of Artego the Savage.

"I guess that his spirit could not be tamed. He was a beautiful horse none the less. I wish you would of been able to tame him. I wonder if he will come back because of isílme and start to court her again. My stallion Vanya Ninquë probably would have showen him some respect if he wasn't soo...so wild."
*they gain speed and catch up to Glory and May. Vanya Ninquë seems to be a slight bit slower because of the extra weight, but still keeps his pace with the others*
Lossen Vana

I too wonder. I sure he will be back, but by then no human will be able to touch him.
She pats the horse, and tells him how good he is.

Iarabeleth rides along side of Lossen and Astaldolosswen. "Well, everyone seems calm now."
She pats Iarabeleth on the neck, and in return Iarabeleth lets out a little neigh.
Astaldolosswen
02-10-2003, 03:56 AM
*Vanya Ninquë is happy that Lossen thinks that he is so good and doesn't mind the extra weight, he goes a little faster because he knows that they have lost quite a bit of time. He then tosses his head a little a gives a loud happy neigh*
"Lossen, I think he likes you. He doesn't mind the extra weight like he normally does, and he normally only lets me ride him. You can consider yourself lucky. He is really taking a liking to you." *she smiles because her horse has never let someone else besides her ride him, even when she was riding him with the other person.*

02-10-2003, 04:33 AM
Iarabeleth let out a loud snort. "What is it Iarabeleth?" May says while patting her neck.
Iarabeleth starts to slow down and May has to promise treats. "Don't worry, when we're done I'll give you anything you want."
With that Iarabeleth suddenly bolts away and May is left to hold on to dear life.

*Vanya Ninquë goes faster but stays behind Iarabeleth for he sees that she is getting quite tired.*
"I guess that he feels that he is the leader of our group of horses. He is already starting to look out for them. May, she is really starting to get tired as I can see. I hope that he will stop soon so your horse can get a drink of water and some rest."
Lossen Vana
02-10-2003, 06:09 PM
Lossen smiles and feels honered by the horse. And she wonders to herself what Artego was doing. She could still hear his screams from off in the woods. Then she turned her head towards them and swear she could hear more then one screem as if a whole heard of horses had joined Artego.

"I will continue on if he does not stop and when we stop, I will shoot up an arrow that is lit. I will hope that you see it if you must stop. Lossen and I can continue on with him while you give your horses a break. You can catch up to us when they are ready. I will make sure you do not lose your way and we can leave prints in the ground for you. We will see you in a little while if you decide to stay back and give your horse a break."

02-11-2003, 12:49 AM
Iarabeleth did not want to stop. She did not want to make the other horses think she was weak. She had gone this far, she could go the rest of the way.
May tried to stop Iarabeleth to take a break, but Iarabeleth kept running. "Iarabeleth! You need to rest."
May tugged as hard as she could but Iarabeleth fought back. She continued to run her fastest.
Astaldolosswen

*Vanya Ninquë saw that she did not to stop because she thought that the others would think of her as weak. he went faster and stepped in front of her so she could not go on with out taking him on and he knew that she was too tired to take him on.*
"Iarabeleth, please, do not hurt yourself doing this. I will not think that you are weak and my horse Vanya Ninquë will not think your weak. None of us will think of you as weak. Please, do not hurt yourself."

"Iarabeleth don't be stubborn!" May said. But Iarabeleth refused and bucked. May tugged again, but it only encouraged Iarabeleth.
She snorted as if telling Vanya Ninquë to let her go. Iarabeleth knew how important it was to May to get there, but May had wanted what was best for Iarabeleth and that was rest.

*Vanya Ninquë snorts and neighs telling Iarabeleth to take a break. he didn't want to see her or any of the others get hurt. so he answered to her rear and reared up right in front of her while Astaldolosswen and Lossen have to hold on tight. he came down real hard in front of her as in saying stay or fight*
WarriorMay
02-11-2003, 01:35 AM
May knew it had to be done, but seeing Iarabeleth in her state, it didn't feel good. She patted the horse and told her to take a rest.
Iarabeleth gave Vanya Ninquë a look as if telling him he got his way, but he should not expect such a thing in the future. Iarabeleth turned and walked a bit then lay down.
Iarabeleth tried to tell May that if she was going to take a rest, it would be where she wanted it, and however long she wanted it.
May sat down beside her steed and rested against her. "Why must you be so stubborn?" she said quietly.
Astaldolosswen
02-11-2003, 01:40 AM

"Good. Now she will be able to easily keep up once she is back to normal. I will stay with as obvisiously Vanya Ninquë isn't going anywhere until he knows that she is alright."

02-11-2003, 02:04 AM
Iarabeleth seems to let out what sounds like a whimper. "No Iarabeleth, you're going to rest."
Iarabeleth kay her head down, a few minutes passed and she suddenly sprang up as if saying, "Ok! I'm better let's go!"
Iarabeleth started to walk, but May quickly stopped her and told her, "You need more rest than that!"
Astaldolosswen
02-11-2003, 02:10 AM
*Vanya Ninquë sees that she figures that she is all better, and puts her back down as if protecting her from herself.*
"You can definately tell that he feels its his duty to protect the horses. He is acting like the top horse just like at home."
*grins because he is being very protective of the other horses. she sits herself down by a tree and closes her eyes.*
"We will take a break weather the dragon likes it or not."
Astaldolosswen
02-11-2003, 02:55 AM

Lossen Vana
02-11-2003, 03:33 AM
Lossen held on tight to the other horse. As she did Mor began to lag behind. He was use to running long distances but this was longer then he had ever run before even in great haste. Losssen lookes at the other, then back at Mor who had nearly colaped behind them.
I do not wish to knock out my dog, but he will follow me to the ends of the earth even if it kills him. We must stop or I fear he won't make it!
Astaldolosswen
02-11-2003, 03:51 AM
*Vanya Ninquë, after he had laid down by his master, kept a lookout for anybody or anything that might pose as a threat to his master and the rest of the group. he looked at Iarabeleth to make sure that she would not try anything since he figured that she would need quite a deal of time to recover. he looked at his master and knew that she would be alright. he looked over at the dog and noticed that he was about to collapse from all the running. he is used to all the running, but wasn't sure about the rest of them. so he agreed to rest*
Lossen Vana
02-11-2003, 04:26 AM
Lossen then couldn't bare to see her dog suffer anymore and jumped off the horse. She went to the very wery Mor and told him to rest. She too collaped by a tree and began to rest.
WarriorMay
02-11-2003, 05:22 AM
Iarabeleth seemed to be inching away from the group. "Just where do you think you're going?" May said in elvish. Iarabeleth stopped, as if she hadn't even moved, acting as if she had no idea what May was talking about. Her brown eyes looked up and May and she lay back down, knowing she would just have to rest, even if it is against her will.
May pulled some carrots from her pack, and handed one to each of the horses. Iarabeleth had gotten her reward for getting this far, she would get another at the end.
WarriorMay
02-12-2003, 12:45 AM
May looked up at the sky, the clouds sailed silently adove. She patted Iarabeleth's side and said, "I would never think you're weak."
She laid her head onto the ground, her thoughts suddenly surrounding the dark blade. She looked to the others to see what they were doing and checking if they were ready to leave.
Astaldolosswen
02-12-2003, 01:11 AM
*after she had a good rest, she said to Lossen*
"Lossen, if your dog would like to ride on the horse with us, Vanya Ninquë will not mind. He must rest and from the looks of it, we still have quite a ways to go."
Lossen Vana
02-12-2003, 03:00 AM
Lossen looked up from where she sat next to the tree. Her dog was panting heavly. Lossen shoke her head in confusion. Her dog was rather large for a horse being a full grown greyhound and she didn't know if the the horse could take her and Mor. Let alone still carry the other parcels.
Are you sure it will be safe Mor is a big dog. I don't want to stress your horse. We have had a long ride to begin with. Don't you think you should rest? We can start again tommorrow, with renewed strenght. I'm sure we willl beable to find the dragon again. He is following the main road.
Astaldolosswen
02-12-2003, 03:16 AM
*Vanya Ninquë looks at Lossen because he feels that from what she said, he isn't as strong as he looks, but he is really stronger than what he looks.*
"I know that he will be able to handle it, otherwise I would not have offered. He can handle more than that if I would give him the chance."
*she smiles because she knows the strength of her stallion and knows that if he truely needs a break, he will stop.*
Lossen Vana
02-12-2003, 03:31 AM
Lossen got up and picked up her dog and carfully place him onto the horses back then she got up onto the horse.
I hope you are right. I really don't want to hurt him.

*Vanya Ninquë realizes that they will be going soon, so he conserves his energy so he can carry his master, the elf Lossen and her dog. Astaldolosswen mounts her horse and waits for the others. Her horse barely feels his master on him as she knows how to ride light.*
"Do not worry. I am a light person, but full of muscle and strength. I didn't go traveling a heavy person. He will barely feel my weight. He will last until we stop. So, are we ready?"
*she looks at the others*
Lossen Vana
02-12-2003, 03:50 AM
Lossen nodded knowing how to ride light also. Her dog on the other hand clung tightly never being on a horse before.
Astaldolosswen
02-12-2003, 03:53 AM
"Looks like my horse will only really be feeling the weight of Mor."
*she smiles since Lossen also knows how to ride lightly.*
"We shall move quite swiftly then if everybody is ready."
Lossen Vana
02-12-2003, 03:55 AM
Lossen pats her dog on the head. He wasn't much of a horse back rider but as long as he was with Lossen he would try his best. She nods signaling that she and her dog were ready.

"May, Glory, are you ready?"
WarriorMay
02-12-2003, 05:07 AM
Iarabeleth was already up on her legs, prancing around excited that they will be going. She troted over to May and waited for her to mount.
May mounted her horse and Iarabeleth troted over to Vanya Ninquë. She waited for Glory and her steed to follow.
Astaldolosswen
02-13-2003, 01:09 AM
*Vanya Ninquë starts walking waiting for Glory as he knew that they had to get going.*
"Hurry up Glory."
Lossen Vana
02-14-2003, 12:19 AM
Lossen sits ontop of the mighty stallion. Her dog cluching on in the back. Lossen looks over at the others.
So are we ready to go?
Astaldolosswen
02-14-2003, 12:30 AM
OOC:I take it that Glory has been very busy and wont be able to post. So I would just assume that she is ready and with us.
IC:*Vanya Ninquë goes at a full gallop as they are in a hurry. May will have to catch up if she is ready. He will not wait any longer because he knows of the increasing evil and danger*
"I guess he isn't going to wait for anybody."
OOC:Just assume that Glory is with us.
WarriorMay
02-14-2003, 01:11 AM
May and Iarabeleth quickly catch up with Vanya Ninquë. Iarabeleth is determined to reach their destination so she keeps a fast but steady gallop to conserve her energy.
Lossen Vana
02-14-2003, 01:37 AM
Lossen sat ontop of the other horse as it moved. She sighed missing her own horse and wondered where they might find other horses. She longed for a new best friend.
Astaldolosswen
02-16-2003, 12:31 AM
*they must go faster in order to catch up to the dragon. she tells Vanya Ninquë to go faster so he does since he knows that they are in a hurry.*
"We should reach the next village in a few more days."
I hope.
*Vanya Ninquë continues to gain speed so they will catch up with the dragon*

((sorry I haven't posted for you all in a while. I've had certain troubles. *cough* incooperative internet *cough cough*))
((I'm sorry to tell you, but there is no main road, and there most likely is no villiage considering you're travelling through an unmapped area (if you would have checked it lately again). But I can do something for the plight of lack of horses.))
*As you begin to travel again, there is a sound of wild and happy whinnying carrying on the air. And as some suprised members of the company might gaze to the east (you are travelling south) they see a pack of wild horses running through the fields, kicking up the dew of the morning, the droplets glimmering in the day's sunshine. Horses of all colors, shapes and sizes, though all of them share one common trait besides being very, very free. They are all more or less stocky, and have light feathering on their heels. (Hopefully you all know that feathering is the longer hair on the heels by the hoof, just fyi.) Lossen has a thought...*
*The dragon has moved on, not worried about the company, it was not them he intended to save in the first place.*
Astaldolosswen
02-16-2003, 08:51 PM
*she sees the horses off to the east and sees how beautiful they are.*
"Lossen, shall we try and get you a new horse?"
goofoofighter
02-16-2003, 11:03 PM
*the herd stallion is curious of these other riders and admires their steeds. He decides to come over and visit a while, and from their horses find out why certain peculiar happenenings have happened.*
*A large, beautiful stocky black horse comes thundering to the company, his herd following behind him, excited to see old friends. But closest followers of all are the stallion's sons. They are easily distinguishable from the rest, they are the only other dark solid-colored horses in the herd.*
*The stallion sniffs the company, his ears back as a warning not to try anything funny. He finds a frightening familiar smell on Lossen and rears, screaming a warning to his herd. But when he lands back on his feet, he does not stir, but continues to sniff, and questions the dog about the smell*
Lossen Vana
02-17-2003, 01:12 AM
The dog growls at the horse. He wanted to protect Lossen but Lossen saw this untamed Staillon and went over to him. Lossen admired his beauty but desided that she needed a horse that was more tame. So she moved on. Her gaze was caught by a silver dappled Stallion with his neck bent over as he grazed. Lossen and the new horse imediatly bonded. And he was gentle just like she wanted.
Astaldolosswen
02-17-2003, 03:16 AM
"It looks like you have found yourself a new friend. What shall you call him?"
*she thinks that he is very handsome and is glad that she found a new horse and friend.*
"Shall we get going now? Or are we going to wait for the turtles to come along?"
Lossen Vana
02-17-2003, 03:39 AM
Lossen pats her new horse. His long silver mane flowing. His white feathers on his hooves, gentaly moving in the quiet wind. Lossen looked at him not knowing what to name him. But he was strong, and handsome. He lifted his head back and neighed happliy and nuzzles Lossen. Lossen then thought of a name.
Moondust
She then ties her packs onto his silklike body. And mounted him. Then she easily lead him to join the others.
Ok me and Moondust are ready whenever you are.
Astaldolosswen
02-17-2003, 03:45 AM
"Very well."
*Vanya Ninquë rears and goes as fast as he can. she sees that when they were trying to keep up with the dragon that, that was only exerice for him. he was going very fast now, and she was glad because they had lost a lot of time when they stopped to take a rest.*
"I hope you can keep up easily enough"
*she smiles and laughs a little.*
Lossen Vana
02-17-2003, 03:54 AM
Moondust begins to go faster to catch up. He dosn't even need to unleash all of his streath or power. It was mearly a light walk for him. He then held his spot next to the lead and snorted.
OOC: God I have to come up with a new name for my horse...any suggestions?
WarriorMay
02-17-2003, 05:43 AM
Iarabeleth looked at the new horse. She snorted back as a small welcome. "Beautiful horse." May said.
Iarabeleth suddenly snorted as if saying, "What about me?"
May let out a laugh, and patted her neck.
Astaldolosswen
02-17-2003, 11:09 PM
OOC: Um........Lossen, Goofoo was wondering if it was alright if she used your horse as a character for a while because she is getting bored of not being able to do anything. Oh, and she wants us to like relax, because the dragon doesn't really care if we follow him or not, so she says to like relax and just have a relaxing time being yourself. and for a name, how about, vanya óla, meaning fair/beautiful dream, or you can just name him moon which is Isil (these are in Quenya). otherwise, moondust or whatever it is, is fine.
IC: *she doesn't go anywhere from when they stopped but just marveled at the beauty of the wild horses. she unmounted and just watched them be free and themselves.*
"I say we shouldn't even bother trying to catch up to the dragon anymore. I don't think he even cares that we aren't following him. We can rest here and watch the beauty of nature and just talk and learn more about one another."
*she goes over by one of the wild horses and just starts to pet him as he is very beautiful to her even though she already has a horse. If she didn't have a horse, she would claim a new one if she could. she went over by her horse and took her packs off of him and let him go graze and socialize with the wild horses as he used to be wild in these woods.*
WarriorMay
02-18-2003, 12:51 AM
May unmounts Iarabeleth, and patted her on the nose. She watches the beautiful horses run and be free. "You go and have some fun Iarabeleth, I'll be right here."
May took her pack off Iarabeleth's back, and let her run wild with the rest of the horses. Allowing here to enjoy herself, instead of having troubles. But Iarabeleth was not comfortable and stayed closer to Vanya Ninquë and Glory's horse (which by the way, I don't know what the name is).
Lossen Vana
02-18-2003, 01:05 AM
OOC: I like the name Isil. And what is Goo going to do with my horse?
BIC: Lossen dismounts seeing the others and lets him run off. But he would much rather follow her and make friends. He nuzzles her, and she settles down under a tree.
Astaldolosswen
02-18-2003, 03:18 AM
*Vanya Ninquë continues to be himself and have fun with the wild horses. astal watches a particular horse that reminds her of Vanya Ninquë, but he is completely different in color. he looks almost black, but he is closer to brown. she figures that he is one of the lead stallion's sons. she just loves to see the horses play together and have no fears or worries. she just relaxes and watches the one horse as well as hers and her friends.*
WarriorMay
02-18-2003, 03:38 AM
May sits down and starts to make herself some arrows. Her dreams have warned her, and she takes no risk of not having enough arrows. When she finished, she pull out a small bottle, filled with glowing water. She carefully pulled off the top and put one drop onto each arrow. The arrows started to glowed white. When all her arrows had the potion on she put away the bottle and her arrows.
"This potion was given to me by my caretaker. He was more of a magician than I and always made potions to make his weapons stronger. He gave this to me as a gift. When I asked what it was, he simply told me that it was only to be used when my heart warns me." she looked at the clear bottle and searched in her pack for anything more that would be useful.
Astaldolosswen
02-18-2003, 03:54 AM
*she knew that may had said something, but did not take notice as she was just fine watching the horses have fun. she couldn't take her eyes off of that one horse though. she kept wondering why she couldn't take her eyes off of him.*
Lossen Vana
02-18-2003, 08:02 PM
As Lossen watched she soon desided that she too should make some more wepons. She soon had made about a dozen or too and had bathed the tips in a light poison. She then put them in her quiver and spent some time with her new horse.
Astaldolosswen
02-18-2003, 11:30 PM
*she finally looked at the others and decided that she too must make more arrows, so she started to make her arrows and when she had made about three dozen arrows, she put a drop of a potion that made them dangerous to the touch and deadly to the foe. after she was done, she went by that one horse that she couldn't take her eyes off of before and stroked his mane and neck. she thought that he was one of the most beautiful horses she had ever seen. she wished that she could take him, but she already had a horse that she was happy with and it wouldn't be fair to him to carry packs. she just stroked his mane and neck and watched him have fun.*
WarriorMay
02-19-2003, 12:24 AM
"Let's test thism shall we?" May says patting Iarabeleth's nose. She took out an arrow, aimed and fired it at a small rock. It shattered into pieces and there was no damage done to the arrow. She picked up the arrow, pleased that it was stronger than the others she had before.
May looked at Iarabeleth who was staying close to her. "Go on Iarabeleth, have some fun while you can." But Iarabeleth refused to leave her side. May stroked her mane and understood she was not comfortable.
Astaldolosswen
02-19-2003, 05:03 AM
OOC:ummmmm.........Goofoo was wondering if we could all post what our horses look like again. she would like to draw them and then probably color them.
*Vanya Ninquë sees that Iarabeleth wasn't feeling all to comfortable. he goes over by her and nudges her out and giving snorts and grunts saying that it is alright, they will not hurt you, they will only play. astal sees this and giggles*
"Looks like Vanya Ninquë is going to get Iarabeleth out to play. Don't you think?"
*she looks over at May.*
WarriorMay
02-20-2003, 01:23 AM
OOC: Hmm...what should Iarabeleth look like....
IC: May smiled and said, "Aw."
Iarabeleth snorted back. She didn't know what do to.
May sighed and hoped that Iarabeleth would come out of her shell. "I guess she doesn't get out much."
OOC: Umm...is light tan colour with a black mane. How would I say it, she's not fat, but she's not skinny, so about a very fit look. Her eyes are brown and if you want to, or if you can, add in my pack which is just a black leather pack. :D
Astaldolosswen
02-20-2003, 04:16 AM
OOC:Thank you May! :D She will be glad to find that out. do you by any chance know what Glory's horse looks like?
IC:*Vanya Ninquë brings some other horses over by Iarabeleth and hopes that she will just be herself. Vanya Ninquë basically snorts and neighs saying that just have fun, be yourself, don't just stand there, act like you did as a foal. Astal is laughing at this because she knew that her horse was funny, and a bit like a little kid, but did not know that he would ever do something like this.*
"I think that he will not stop until she is having fun and being herself."
*she just laughs and sees that he has brought over that one horse she was admiring.*
WarriorMay
02-21-2003, 12:20 AM
Iarabeleth didn't like it. She was no use to this, and all the other horses made her uncomfortable. She walked over to where May sat and lay beside her. May patted her nose and sighed. "If you really don't want to, you don't have to."
May pulled her book, like a journal. She pulled out a quill and whispered some magical words, and on the tip of the quill, a drop of ink fell.
Astaldolosswen
02-21-2003, 03:03 AM
*Vanya Ninquë sees that she will not play with him or the other horses, so he gets sad because all the other horses and even the people are having fun and she is not. he goes over by her and tries to get her to come out and play. he nudges her and tries to tell her that it is alright, nothing will happen, just have fun.*
"Looks like he's not going to give up quite yet. He is a stubborn one. I hope she isn't going to stay in a shell the entire time. This is probably going to be the only time that she can have fun and play. May, do you by any chance know what might be wrong with her?"
WarriorMay
02-21-2003, 03:09 AM
May wraps her arms around the horse's neck and says, "She doesn't meet a lot of other horses...because of our travels she is just used to only one or two other horses.We usually are alone when we journey."
She sighs and pats her side, "It is my doing, I am always out and about I rarely make any friends and Iarabeleth doesn't meet any horses."
May thinks about her life, she only has a small clump of friends, others are just people she knows.
"I do plan to stop for a little bit. Just relax and enjoy life." she looks up at the sky. "Maybe even find someone..." she stops herself before she could even finish.
Lossen Vana
02-21-2003, 03:17 AM
OOC: Isil is a large white horse with also silver like speckles all over his body and a black main. He is very muscular.
BIC: Isil prances then lies down and the ground. He had no intrest in regular horses. He had been around them his whole life. It was these strange human creatures he was curious about so he stayed near Lossen.
A loud scream could be heard in the distance. It wasn't a human scream but one of a horse. A wild horse. Lossen knew that was Artego. And she worried what would happen if he found them now with a whole heard of wild horse. She soon picked up the sound of hard hoof beats and she knew that Artego her old horse was near.
OOC: Thanks for drawing our horses. Just wonderin if Artego could start alittle trouble with the other horses? The wild ones.
Astaldolosswen
02-21-2003, 03:23 AM
OOC: Isn't Artego your character Lossen? You should be able since technically he is your character. The wild horses are GooFoo's character.
IC: *Vanya Ninquë hears the horses scream and the hoof beats coming. He looks toward the direction and knows that it is Artego. He gets ready for a good fight if necessary. Astal looks in that direction as well, for her horse is always aware of what is going on, even when she is not paying attention.*
"We had better be careful now. You remember what happened the last time we saw Artego."
*she prepares herself for the worst and is ready to fight as well if she must.*
WarriorMay
02-21-2003, 05:18 AM
Iarabeleth stood up and looked in the direction where the horse was in. May also stood and walked over to where Lossen was. "Looks like the trouble maker is back."
Iarabeleth let out a loud grunt and snort. She was not happy about this. "You don't think he'll scare off these horses, do you?"
Astaldolosswen
02-21-2003, 01:59 PM
"I fairly doubt it. The lead stallion might just attack him if it comes to it. I know that Vanya Ninquë will attack him if he poses(sp?) a threat to the other horses. He is quite protective of people and animals that have done nothing wrong, that someone attacks. We are well defended with him, and the wild stallions here. He will not be able to get near us, but if he does, be ready to kill him, we cannot have him disturbing our journey."
*she readys herself just in case she might have to kill him because the horses can't get him to leave.*
Lossen Vana
02-21-2003, 05:26 PM
OOC: Don't kill him. I have a plan what I'm going to do with him.
BIC: Artego then races into the mist of the wild horses. He bucks and rears and shakes his mane to and fro. With a snort he charged the group then withdrew. Isil took one look at him and reared and plunged back down to the ground angered by the comotion that was going on. Artego saw him and bolted towards him. Lossen then raced over and tried to break up the horses but it was to late the large fearsome stallions were fighting. Artego was doing it for blood and Isil to protect Lossen. Isil then went and kicked Artego in the head. Making Artego scream and plunge towards Isil. Isil moved out of the way quickly but Lossen got knocked over. Isil angerly threw his head into the air shaking his mane about angerly. Artego then went and kicked Isil in the side knocking him over. Lossen then got up and quickly got to Isils side before Artego nearly plunged on him. As if he had had enough he then screamed loudly and ran off back into the wilderness. Lossen then helped her horse up and healed him. She couldn't understand why Artego hadn't just finished them both off at that moment.
Astaldolosswen
02-22-2003, 12:56 AM
OOC: I was just making sure that no harm comes to the group.
IC: *Vanya Ninquë sees what happens and was going to help, but as soon as he was going to, Artego ran off into the forest. he then gets mad and stays more by Lossen and Isil. they can see the anger in his eyes as he prepares for the next time he attacks.*
"I don't think that we are very safe with him on the loose."
*she looks at Vanya Ninquë and says*
"As long as he is with us, and we have the wild stallions, we should be safe, but who knows. At least Vanya Ninquë is strong enough to take him on. Do any of us know how strong Artego is and how strong Isil is?"
*she looks over at Lossen for her answers.*
WarriorMay
02-22-2003, 03:40 AM
May looked in the direction of the forest. She then looked around to see where Iarabeleth had gone during the incident. But when she looked around, she wasn't in sight. "Iarabeleth?" she called out.
A snort and grunt came out from the forest, and Iarabeleth came running out. Relieved that Iarabeleth was ok May patted her nose.
"Is everyone ok?" she says picking up her pack.
Astaldolosswen
02-22-2003, 05:20 PM
*looks over at May*
"I am. Are you okay Lossen?"
*she looks over at Lossen*
"Is Isil alright?"
Lossen Vana
02-23-2003, 05:35 PM
Lossen nods and Isil nickers. It seamed they were both alright. But just very flustered.
Yes we are ok.
She of couse knew how strong Artego was and knew that no horse could match his strength. And she feared next time that he came near then she would have to kill him. Mor came over to Lossen and comforted her sencing her pain.
Astaldolosswen
02-24-2003, 02:03 AM
"That's good. Vanya Ninquë will help protect us as well as the wild stallions most likely. What do you think we should do about him? Should we kill him or should we let him to the wild horses?"
*she looks at the others and waits for what they will say.*
WarriorMay
02-24-2003, 07:10 PM
"Kill him?" May looked shocked. "He may be a very untamed horse, but I really don't think it's the way to deal with him."
She stood up and mounted Iarabeleth. "We'll just have to be ready for him. Bring him down, just knock some sense into him." May tired to avoid trying to kill Artego. It just didn't seem right. May has dealt with many wild horses, any horse can be tamed, it just takes time. But she doubted he would ever listen to anyone.
OOC: ...Anyone know what happened to Barakul?:confused:
Astaldolosswen
02-24-2003, 11:25 PM
"I will not leave untill that horse Artego learns not to mess with us. I refuse to leave and I don't think that I will get Vanya Ninquë to leave. He does not like another horse attacking another horse."
*Vanya Ninquë shows no sign of moving untill Artego is defeated. Astal looked at his eyes and nodded.*
"We shall stay behind and make sure that the wild horses are not attacked by Artego, and if he shows that he will attack any of us, Vanya Ninquë will attack him before he can hurt anybody. Now go, I will catch up to you."
*she looks out into the forest and waits for Artego to show himself to her eyes.*
OOC: I think Barakul left because of his eagle. He hasn't made a post since the 27th of January.

02-25-2003, 01:23 AM
OOC: Lossen, I was wondering if I could play just a little of Isil for a bit. I have a bit of a small purpose for him in this post, if that is alright with you.
BIC: *The dark Stallion did not like the language Artego's body spoke to him. There was something more to him that seemed to be not of him, in some strange way. He couldn't shake the feeling that had been growing that his beautiful valley was no longer safe. He signaled his herd to move south, to places he once knew when he was young. Without further ado, they moved, their hooves thudding lightly as they gallop through the valley.*
*Others screeches are heard from the forest Artego retreated to, like he had been found, or he had found others perhaps. And the thundering of hurrying hooves. Isil urges Lossen to follow the herd, he has a feeling that he had fought only the first round.*
*The Stallion, hearing the screeches as well, fell to the back of the herd with his oldest son following, others flanking and leading the herd, watching at all sides for Artego's return.*
*If Astaldolosswen and Vanya Ninquë were so determined to stay, they saw now they would be left behind.* ((not meaning that mean in any way of course, more or less humorously.))
Astaldolosswen
02-25-2003, 01:35 AM
*Vanya Ninquë looks at him and says through grunts, snorts and neighs, that he would make sure Artego did not attack them. It was up to them if they wanted to leave. Astal looked at them as well and said in elvish to the stallion and his son*
"I will not let him follow you. Your herd has granted my friend a new horse and friend. You and your herd shall be safe no matter what we have to do to him."
*she gave him a look that meant she would keep her word and no matter what, his herd would not be harmed. she readied her bow, and her sword. she even had her bow readied with an arrow already set for aim and firing.*
OOC: None taken. It is just what I feel that my character must do.
WarriorMay
02-26-2003, 04:06 AM
May follows the herd, but Iarabeleth starts to back up. "What are you doing?"
Iarabeleth turns around and stays with Astal and Vanya Ninquë. She doesn't want to have to leave them to a wild dangerous horse alone.
May shrugs and says, "Well, I guess we're not leaving either."
Lossen Vana
02-27-2003, 02:30 AM
Lossen listens to Isil. And follows him, but she stays close enough to the rest of her followers no wandering to far off for the protection. As she gets further from them she begins to hear the wild sounds of Artego once again.
Astaldolosswen
02-28-2003, 12:34 AM
*Vanya Ninquë perks his ears as he hears the sounds of the wild horse Artego. he feels like hunting him down and just fighting him out in the forest to the death. Astal sees this in his eyes and starts to worry for him, because she knows that Vanya Ninquë hates Artego and would do anything to stop him, even if it meant dieing himself.*
"Thank you for staying. Lossen, may you be safe, if we hear that Artego is near to where the herd is headed, we will come as fast as we can. We shall be alright, I just hope that Vanya Ninquë does not feel that to beat Artego, he will have to have a fight to the death. He strongly hates Artego, and will do anything to save his friends and other animals."

03-02-2003, 04:44 PM
*The herd soon disappear over the next hill and leave their valley for even they don't know how long. If one were to look back from that group, they could still see a few trees among numerous mountain bases arranged, oddly, in just one spot among plains. But looking ahead to the south they saw vast amounts of plain they must cross, and mountains on the distant horizon.*
*Those who stayed behind continue to hear Artego's screams, and the growing number of answers, as they grow wilder with time. And they wonder if, an attack happens, they will regret staying and risking themselves. Some may wonder how fast they will be able to run if they are outnumbered and their horses are steadfast on staying and fighting, and how long it might be until they are run down by the fight's survivors...*
*The screams are heard by the wild horses, and the stallion urges them to get further away faster, and the herd begins to run, making Lossen step it up to keep up with them. Luckily, they are heading south.*
((Just thought I'd break the silence. I can't make any drastic moves with Artego without Lossen's permission, in the case that any of you were hoping for an attack. :) Happy Trails.))
Astaldolosswen
03-03-2003, 03:09 AM
*Astal and Vanya Ninquë hear Artego's screams in the distance. She hopes that he will not attack the herd and will rather go for them. she looks at May.*
"May, I hope you realize that we may not see the others for a long time. We might actually have to find Artego and beat him instead of waiting for him to come to us or to attack the herd, Lossen and Isil, and Glory. We are alone in this and we have to make sure that Artego brings no harm to anyone else ever again. I am ready, how about you?"
OOC:Thank you so much for breaking the silence. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have been ssssssoooooooooo bored.

"We must be ready to help Vanya Ninquë, for I feel that he wants to challenge Artego first, before we try to stop Artego ourselves. We must be ready with our bows and arrows, we will not try to get close enough to attack with our swords."
*she goes even faster towards Artego's screams of a challenge*

((just a quick reminder. Yes, I know you're trying to be real and convincing, but just a reminder to keep at the back of your mind. Lossen does not want us to kill Artego, she has a plan for him. Whether it's run out or not, I don't know. But until then, we'll assume she still has something going.))
((I will apologize now for anything Lossen may not want Artego to do. Lossen; if you wish me to change this after it is posted, just say the word and I will do it. *bows*)) *The screams grow louder as they go looking for definate trouble, and as they enter the trees, they are faced with a sheer wall of stone that is impassable from where they stand.*

"Now how do you suppose we get over this? We have to bring our horses as well too just to let you know."

((once again, I will apologize ahead of time if anything in my posts goes against Lossen's plans. As I have said before, just say the word and I will do it.)) *As May thinks about the question Astaldolosswen has posed to her, thundering is heard from above. As they look up, rocks fall onto their faces from the cliff, and as they try to rub the dust from their eyes, Artego leading a wild and raging group of horses; all of whose eyes burn with a fire of malice in their eyes.*
*They jump the cliff and land lightly, as if it were nothing but a small herdle (sp?) in a steple chase. Completely ignoring May and company - and ((the apology applies to you here too, Katie-)) Vanya Ninquë's screams of challenge - and leads the wild bunch to where the herd Ólaisil (as the understanding ones heard the horses call them) had headed, and they wasted absolutely no time in their chase.*
((OOC: Just wondering. I've been having thoughts about starting yet another RPG. Ideas have been coming on to me quite quickly and with such excitement that I can't ignore them. But I have forgotten some of the ideas... So I'm asking you for yours. Your ideas, what you what like to see in an RPG, or how you would like to see it run doesn't matter to me. Any ideas, please PM me with them. I was thinking about running more like a director casts a movie -but of course, I won't be using a script! That would only be as good as writing a book- giving a character's name, their attitude towards things, their part in the story-line, and their relations to other characters. A few people bringing in their own characters will be permitted, but the provided ones -should someone leave- will be made sure to be at all times filled. So what d'ya guys think?))

*Astal unmounts Vanya Ninquë and is frightened by how many horses he has with him. Vanya Ninquë is not though, he shows that he will not let them harm any of them and that he would not let them pass without a fight. Astal sees the hatred in his eyes and worries for him, but none the less, she readies her arrows with the poison tips just in case it comes to it that she must kill any of the horses, even if she doesn't want to. she turns to May.*
"This may be the end for us, but we must not let Artego and his band of angry horses defeat us without a fight. If we must go, then we should go with a fight. I will not let him get the better of me and I don't think that Vanya Ninquë is going to back down any more."
*Vanya Ninquë does not want to make the first move, as it might put May, Astal, and Iarabeleth in danger. Astal hopes for a mircle to happen. Vanya Ninquë gets tired of waiting and decides to just go for it even though Astal is completely against it. Astal starts to run in between the two and hopes against all hope that they will not kill her. Vanya Ninquë stops dead in his tracks, but continues to slide in the dirt. he doesn't stop in time and he slams into her afraid of what might happen. she falls to the ground at the force of the slam and is knocked out.*

OOC: GooFoo I'd like to join!
IC: May unmounts Iarabeleth and is on her knees to help Astal. She looks around thinking about what to do and calls Iarabeleth over. She lifts Astal onto Iarabeleht and mounts Iarabeleth herself. She looks to Vanya Ninquë to see if he will stay. Astal is in no condition to stay here. She must get out into safety.

*Vanya Ninquë sees that May wants him to stay, but he wants to go with Astal, he figures he would follow from behind to make sure that they were safe on their way to safety. he feels bad for what happened to his friend and wants to make it all better. he knew that Astal was only trying to protect him, he guessed that she knew that he was willing to die fighting Artego. Astal is in bad shape, she was not ready for a blow like that, so she was just hanging on by a despreat need to see the land in harmony once again.*

"Go if you wish, I will stay here." May tells Vanya Ninquë. She readies herself to distract the horses so that Iarabeleth, Astal and Vanya Ninquë can get away without trouble.

((OOC: The RPG I told about isn't made yet, and I don't know if it will be for a while yet. I have to remember my thoughts first, and work out a plot-line. I'd be glad to let you know when it is made *to self* if I ever get to it... *knows that I procrastinate badly*))
IC: *some of the horses near the rear of Artego's wild clan spin to check Vanya Ninquë's attack, but seeing his quick stop and seeing him distracted, turn and follow Artego again, gaining quickly on the herd.*
*The great black stallion, leader of the herd Ólaisil, heard his hard, powerful, thunderous hoofbeats on the hill south of the valley, and call all his sons to him, commanding the others to run without pause. They obey, but sadly, and Isil urges Lossen to climb onto his back as the mares begin to run.*

*Vanya Ninquë does not think it right for May to stay there by her self. Astal is still out and does not know what is going on, she feels in her soul that it is not yet her time so she hangs on to what life and strength she has. Vanya Ninquë goes over by May and basically says with nudging and grunts that he is not going anywhere.*

Vanya Ninquë was a strong horse and May knew she could count on him.

A huge eagle soars over the valley and lands in the way of Artego as he crests a ridge. The eagle bellows and the horse, terrified though being large itself, turned swiftly around and gallops away.
"My name is Ralecath, of the Eagles of the misty mountains," he says, as he swoops down by the company. "That horse is persistant, he will be back. You have injured," he said pointing his wingtip towards Astal. "The horse, for your sake, was luckily alone. Although after this encounter he will not try such a stupid manuver".

OOC: It is not too late. My friend will be happy about having a new member, just try not to powergame to much. She pretty much controls all of nature and she controls Artego and his herd. She also has a herd of her own and that is where two of the members of our group are. May and me are the ones who stayed behind to make sure that they would not be attacked. Just to let you know, the main thing is not to powergame to much. :D
IC: *Vanya Ninquë sees the eagle and looks at it in wonder. he goes over by Astal who is currently laid on the back Iarabeleth. She does not know what is going on, but she is still out cold. She is getting stronger then what she was before and she still holds onto her thread of life.*

"Greetings Ralecath. My name is Tarakaliel from the tall trees of Mirkwood. Tell me what brings you here?" a sudden scream is heard as the wild clan continues their way towards the herd. May turns around and says, "Vanya Ninquë, the herd. We cannot waste time!"

*Vanya Ninquë runs with all of his might and he starts to go faster then he normally can go. he dodges all the trees and he goes towards the screams of Artego. before he left, he gave Iarabeleth a look that told her to protect his friend Astal. and was running on hatred for Artego and his adreneline was pumping faster then ever and he felt strong.*

"Vanya Ninquë is a brave horse to stand against that beast". says Ralecath. "But otherwise, I have come from my eyrie to warn you of dangers. I have owed many deeds to all middle earthlings for a long time. I will not get into the details now, but I would say that I can scout for you. I have heard I am very useful in escaping danger too".

*Astal starts to come to but not quite, she can hear the voices around her and starts to awake. she awakes and sees that she is left with Iarabeleth. she looks at Iarabeleth and says* "Where are May and Vanya Ninquë?" *she decides to look at the direction she has been hearing Artego's screams and decides to go for a look. her head is pounding and she cant walk straight, but she goes for it anyways.* What happened?

Iarabeleth tries to help Astal stay on her feet. Iarabeleth looked into the direction of the screams heard.
May stoped Vanya Ninquë and looked around. Her keen eyes could see the herd. She looked around, desparately looking for the wild clan. She counted on Vanya Ninquë to get her there, to make sure that the herd was safe. "We must get there quickly. " she was hoping that Vanya Ninquë would understand that they would have to stop, and challenging them, providing enough time for the herd to get away safely.

*Astal starts to get her feet back and is glad that Iarabeleth is helping her. She continues in the direction of the screams hoping to find May and Vanya Ninquë. Vanya Ninquë understands what May wants to do, and listens to her obiediently. He listens to every command that she gives her without question.*

Ralecath, feeling a bad presence, beats his mighty wings and takes to the sky. "SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEECH!!!". A minute passes, and then a small black shape appears over the horizon. More appear, and they get bigger and bigger. "My kin are come, and in a time of aid we arrive, what will you have us do?"
