"Welcome to the Dragon Bar with the Excruciatingly Long Name!" chimes the bar keep, a rather short, blonde woman with cats the size of large dogs at her feet. "What will you have?"

An open faced girl with wavy blond hair and a quick smile sees the cat and lets it sniff her fingers. She looks about 14, but there is an air about her that makes one feel as if she has been through more than her age would normally offer to a person. She seems to posess no weapon, which was strange.
"Hi," she said to the blonde handling the bar, in a soft voice. "Your cat is beautiful, what is its name?"

Right then a young female elf with a cloak cover her face walks in ,but nobody has yet to notice her.

OOC: There is quite some controversy about who's going here! I'm not real sure what this is, but I need to join a new RP, so I'll give it a shot.

IC: Valanthe, who was sitting at a table close by with an ale, stands up when she hears about Barad Dun. "What is this talk of Barad Dun? Why might you be off there?"

thoughtful20
11-03-2002, 07:06 AM
"You wish to go to Barad Dun?" asked the girl softly. "i can help you."
Although she was nervous, the girl looked straight into the man's eye. She had told the truth . . . She knew many people in Barad Dun, and although it had been so long ago when she had last been there, she could navigate it's streets like a mouse to the cheese. And although she was young, her slight magic would be usefull to the man . . . if he would except her.

*Dalamar drains the last of his ale and stands. He walks over to the man with his staff thumping at his side. His hooded cloak covers his face but his piercing eyes are eaily seen*

Treasure i heard you say? I'll accompany you to the treasure.

Nonix Dark
11-05-2002, 09:54 AM

"huh?" Nonix draws their attentions.

"did you say treasure? you mean... the treasure?"

the young elf hearing the word treasure silently moves closer.Could it be THE treasure she whispers quietly.

Nonix Dark
11-05-2002, 02:58 PM
Nonix hear the elf silently talks to herself and she said something about the treasure Nonix recall. Nonix sits down next to the elfgirl.

"yeah... I heard something like that too. let's listen alittle closer"

Weathergirl2006
11-06-2002, 12:17 AM
"Yes.. lets ..maybe we can help!"She respond alittle louder,"Hello ,How are you doing ?she asks him with a smile.

Nonix Dark

ooc: i have an idea, we can use it if u guys think it's good enough.

Ulath grins at the small crowd around him, but his grin is cut short by a whistling sound through the air. Before anybody can do anything an arrow plunges into the man's chest.
Beth (the girl) glances at the door as cries ring out in the tavern, but the offender is gone - a few running after him.
Some one bends down to tend to Ulath, forcing the tightly pressing crowd away
"Give the man some air!"
Uponthe black arrow protruding from Ulath's chest is a grubby, slightly scorched letter. when some one unrolls it, they find four words: "the treasure is mine."
The person tending to Ulath stands, quieting the crowd. "He is dead."

ooc: i thought now we could decide to find the treasure ourselves and avenge Ulath's death

"HEY... WHO DID THIS?"

The young elf stands up"we must find this treasure..is anyone with me? "This gives me an uneasy feeling...."

*Lady Arwen*
11-11-2002, 09:16 PM
The elf lady Dimlondewen walks in. (to Weathergirl2006) " Is that treasure I hear. And how come I only know now. My good friend it has been long since our last meeting"

OOC: *wink, wink*

Weathergirl2006
11-12-2002, 01:46 AM
"i see your excellent hearing has served you well again!Yes it has!!i have missed you much!where have you been..oh well we'll have to catch up later ..we need to deal with this problem here."she said as she walk up to Dimlondewen .the young elf seemed to forget her shy behavor and speaks openly." so what all did you hear?"

Neothen
11-12-2002, 02:43 PM
Neothen quietly walks into the bar with his long traveling cloak covering him.He sat down at table and ordered a drink but he couldn't help overhearing a few people talking about some treasure.

*Lady Arwen*
11-12-2002, 06:48 PM
*looks at Ulath dead on the floor* And what has happened here! *looks at arrow* this is one of my stolen arrows! They were given to me by lady galandriel of the the woods, but I leaft my camp to get my horse and they were gone! This is indead a problem! *Dimlondewen looks worried* I have been wandering from rivendell to lothlorien to minas tirith but here I thought I would have some quite at last... But we must find out who did this, I shall at least. My friend will you come with me?

Neothen
11-12-2002, 07:05 PM
Neothen walked over to where the man lay dead."The man that shot him was clad in a black cloak he will give you more trouble in the future I can be of some service to you."Neothen stood with his hood over his face wating for an answere.

*Lady Arwen*
11-12-2002, 07:54 PM
"That is for sure! He might not come back here but he or it will try to stop us from getting to the treasure. that is why we must leave as soon as posible."*whistles, horse aprears at out side entrance* We shood travel by horse, my Enedfalath shall be swift enouth for me.

The human girl, Beth stands and watches as one by one, people left or faded into the background.
She notices a young elf who seems to be addressing her and the other people who had commited themselves to the man who was even now being taken out of the inn, rapped in a sheet
i will travel with you.let me get my horse. Who else wil go?lets meet outside.
"I would come," the human girl said. "But i have no way of getting there. No horse. No powers. Nothing."

Weathergirl2006
11-13-2002, 01:06 AM
If you can offer good company,you may ride with me.it is a big horse and do not take up that much space.

Neothen
11-13-2002, 01:45 PM
Neothen perched himself on a chair and spoke with a human voice."If anyone els possesses any kind of power please tell me so I'm not confused."

Weathergirl2006
11-13-2002, 02:21 PM
i have some..For example when i came in did anybody notice?and i have someother simple magic.But i am excellent with my bow and arrow.Also i can sense danger before it come sometimes.it depend on how busy i am, and it makes me a little tired but not enough to make me sleep or anything.

Neothen
11-13-2002, 02:39 PM
"I'm sure you'll become very powerful may I ride on your shoulder?"


(OOC:In bird form of course.)

*Lady Arwen*
11-13-2002, 06:28 PM
" I use the bow and arrow and a sword" *takes out Doranath (sword)* "I am also good at healling and preforming simple magic, such as sumoning fire or wishing away water. "

"We should take some food and water." *Goes off to get some*

Weathergirl2006
11-13-2002, 11:03 PM
Yes it will be a pleasure!

Neothen
11-14-2002, 02:14 AM
Neothen purches himself on the young elfs shoulder."I won't eat much I'll feed myself.I can also make energy elixers and strong medicines in case of any magical wounds."

*Lady Arwen*
11-14-2002, 05:18 PM
Dimlondewen comes back in to the room with food. "Are we ready to go? I can see that Enedfalath is eager to leave this place."

OOC: Wethergirl2006 maybe you should tell everyone your name so they can stop calling you "the young elf".

Weathergirl2006

11-15-2002, 10:29 AM
Beth looks up at the young elf. She is small for her age (14) and it was true that both she and the elf would fit on the beautiful horse.
"I would be honoured." she answered politely. "That is if i would not be too much of a bother. What shall i call you?"
Then, turning towards the large bird perched upon the elf's shoulder, she said. "i have no 'powers' in that sense of the word. but i promise you, you will not find me a burden, i can help you."

Weathergirl2006
11-15-2002, 01:35 PM
You may call me Alkdilwen.Is anyone else coming?

Neothen
11-15-2002, 01:52 PM
"If that is all then I think we should be on our way."

*Lady Arwen*
11-15-2002, 09:30 PM
"Is anyone else coming?" Dimlondewen says, everyone looks up but no one answers. " Then lets go." Dimlondewen mounts Enedfalath and takes out Doranath, the company comes out and prepares for leaving. "The roads are dangeros at night time, but we must leave now!"

Neothen
11-16-2002, 02:11 AM
"If you ever need a scout then I can quietly fly up a head without being seen."

*Lady Arwen*
11-16-2002, 02:40 AM
"That would be good, can you see anything moving on the road?" The rest of the company mounts they horses.

Neothen
11-16-2002, 03:24 PM
"Not yet but I'm sure the killer is a long way a head of us."Neothen flys up a head but he comes back with nothing."I guess we'll have to find him another way."

Weathergirl2006
11-16-2002, 04:54 PM
"Ok it seems like we're ready!Are we going to go dircetly?or are we going a different way?We need to decide!*Helps beth up*

"Alkdilwen did you hear anything about were the treasure was, for where ever it thats is where we must go"

Weathergirl2006
11-18-2002, 10:52 PM
I have heard about this 'treasure' but i am not certain where.Shall we head east?

*Lady Arwen*
11-19-2002, 12:42 AM
Ÿes, I think that is the best we can do..."

Neothen
11-19-2002, 02:04 PM
"You lead the way I know little of this land so I will get lost easily."*Neothen looked a little trubled he had been in many worlds but this one toped them all.*

11-19-2002, 02:17 PM
I am a visitor i this land too but i am good with directions.Beth are you from here?Or do you know the land well?

*Lady Arwen*
11-19-2002, 06:07 PM
"I know this lands... I used to come here with Elladan and Elrohir... When I still lived in Rivendell. We came hunting here..." Lowers head remembering some painful memory,things from the past. Lifts sword "Come I know a path that is wide enouth for horses yet still quite hidden" Enedfalath starts at a run, other people from the company follow.

ps: greetings consider me as some bad adventures in the way...


The group set travel to find the treasure and avenge Ulath death(or whoever he is ), while some miles far in the east of those lands a dark shadow reunited with his dark lord. A demon twice the size of a man. ``I did as you commanded my lord`, said the shadow. It has been invisible a momment ago but now the siluete of a horrible ghost could be seeing,``But i am afraid that some intruders heard about the treasure and they are heading this way.``
``Good``said the demon,``they will find their end in here. Did you knew any of them?``
Yes``,said the shadow, ``there is Alkdilwen and Arwen``
``Two beautifull elves, i will put an end to that``, said the demon laughing.``i wonder if Arwen still remember the event with Elladan and Elrohir. Who else is with them?``
There is also Neothen`` said the shadow
``Damn``, the demon howled,``that mage is always disturbing us... We should have killed him instead of his pride and his love...`Anyway, i´ve heard enough, i will take care of all of them(including Neothen once and for all), come my servant we should consult some of our allies across this land so they will never find the treasure...
``Yes master` said the shadow, and both entities left and that part of the forest was now gray and without life... Their precence had been noted in the forest.....

*Lady Arwen*
11-19-2002, 09:37 PM
OOC: Ummm... I don't play the part of Arwen. My name in the RPG is Dimlondewen, she is supposed to be a high elf that likes Elladan and is friend with Elrohir. She was exiled from Rivendell and thats why she knows and remembers them.

We got one new member for our RPG, thanks for joining sauronbill we neaded a bad guy.

*Lady Arwen*
11-19-2002, 11:11 PM
OOC: We can tell about our character in the story when we stop for rest.
Lets do this:
The first stop we make in the story everyone has to tell a bit about them self. I think its beter then just telling out about us out of character.

PS WG2006, we already left. Look on the 4th page.

IC: "Its is beter for us to ride until twilight and then stop. We can rest by day and travel by night. I know where our first stop can be; there is a place where traveling elves stop to rest it is called Mithlyg, Akidilwen, I beleve you have been there."

Weathergirl2006
11-19-2002, 11:23 PM
Oh yes i have been there quite a while ago.How long do you think it will take?

Neothen
11-19-2002, 11:27 PM
OOC: That sounds ok to me.


IC: *Neothen ruffles his feathers uneasily.*"I can sense great danger in this land."

Weathergirl2006
11-19-2002, 11:29 PM
I was going to say something Too.But i was going to wait till my feeling told me if it were true or a false alarm.But i feel it growing by the second.

Neothen
11-19-2002, 11:32 PM
"It seems close but I may be wrong."

*Lady Arwen*
11-19-2002, 11:52 PM
Runs to the front " We have arived, I belive we will be safe for the while we stay in Mithlyg, it is protected by old elven magic" Leads the way into a place in between the woods were the trees formed a circle. Takes off her hood. "We shall rest here. I can now feel some evil precence too, but here we will be safe as long as we don't lighta fire or make great noise." Dismounts Enedfalath and starts to take out some food "Its Lembas, I already had a pack with me when I arrived at the bar, take some there is lots. " gives out lembas and sits on a rock thinking with her head down. She mumbles in elven tough very quietly " This place brings memories."

Neothen
11-20-2002, 01:56 AM
*Neothen took human form and started to mumble in a strange language.He started to glow lightly.Neothen sat down and did not move for a long time.He seemed to be searching through the air with his mind.Each person there felt a strange presence inside them almost inhuman.Neothen sat there for the longest time without moving.*

Alkdilwen Walks around and looks at the senery(sp?).The memories flood back.she sits down, and reflects on them.

thoughtful20
11-20-2002, 11:04 AM
Beth sat by the fire, an uneasiness in her heart. She felt no evil, but that did not surprise her, for she had never had any form of magic, or any special power. All in all she felt herself a pretty ordinary person, but surrounded by those of beauty and magic, she felt out of place and lonely. maybe she should not have come with them . . .
"Memories." she whispered. "oh how they haunt us. Do not let them lie on your heart, Alkdilwen, for memories are for learning not for sadness. You are not the only one who feels pain in this place."
Beth looked away. Who was she to give advice to an elf? She wished she had not spoken.

Neothen
11-20-2002, 01:55 PM
"This place gives painful memories from your past we can't let our feelings get in the way of our goal."*Neothen finaly spoke after a long time sitting there he seemed dead.*

Weathergirl2006
11-20-2002, 02:21 PM
"you are wise for your age beth.Your words are very kind.Thank you for the lembas!

*Lady Arwen*
11-20-2002, 06:12 PM
"Your welcome." Gets up to pat Enedfalath "If we are to go on this trip together then we must know at least a bit about the other people. If you would like I will go first." There came no reply. "Fine then, I am Dimlondewen as you all know. I meet Akidilwen in Lothlórien, where she comes from. But I do not live in Lothlórien, I live or lived in Rivendell... I was exiled to live out in the wild for a while. For... a reson." By now all could sense(even Beth that didn't have any powers) that she wasn't very eager to tell about her past. She thought "Shall I tell them or not? Only if Akidilwen asks, she is the only one who really has the right to know"

Weathergirl2006
11-20-2002, 10:42 PM
"is it alright if i go next?"no one objected,"well my name is Alkdilwen
I am Galadriel's neice.I chose to leave Lothlórien to study the world.I am excellent with my bow and arrow.Also I can sense
danger before it come sometimes.I can go unnoticed well no one realizes im there(is good when in battle).Also i have studied a little magic.I am only 200 years old.

*Lady Arwen*
11-20-2002, 11:13 PM
"Who shall go next?"

Neothen
11-20-2002, 11:15 PM
"I geuss I'll go next. My name is Neothen and I'm a wizard, I study in medicine and I have a few special abilitys. My passed is of no buisness to anyone but all I can say is that I have royal blood in my veins."

11-21-2002, 03:29 AM
After talking a little more all of them went to sleep tired of the trip. In the middle of the night and when everyone was sleeping, the dark ghost that once spoke with the demon appeared again. Nobody noticed his precense. He went to where Beth was sleeping and his dark hand touched her cheek. She felt a coldness in her face...
´´So young yet so beautifull and valuable´´, said the shadow with a weak voice,´´i will not let him take you... ´´
In that momment Alkdilwen woke up, but the shadow turned invisible so she couldn´t see nothing. But she felt something really strong and of dark nature in the air.... She felt a chill behind her back, cold as ice and also heard a deep cavern voice:´´You´ll be dead before you get to the half of your trip elf´´...Alkdilwen turned around but there was nothing there, she looked up in the sky and saw that a dark cloud had erased all the stars......

thoughtful20
11-21-2002, 06:38 AM
Beth woke with a start, she touched a hand to her cheek, it felt like ice. She had dreamt . . . actually she had dreamt nothing, then what was it that had woken her up? She shivered and turned in her blanket. she did not get to sleep that night.

Weathergirl2006
11-21-2002, 02:15 PM
"We must leave !!"She said outloud,and every one woke up.," Neothen ,Do you feel it?This place will no longer keep us safe."she looked around and shivered."We must go. "

Neothen
11-21-2002, 06:21 PM
*Neothen was already up packing the last of his things.*" If we don't leave now then a form of darkness will ensnare us. We must quickly leave this place a shadow gave us a visit not to long ago."

*Lady Arwen*
11-21-2002, 06:36 PM
Takes out sword and bow and arrow, also a long knife. "Beth, take this!" Dimlondewen mounts Enedfalath. "These are indeed dark times! Never have I seen the shadow enter this sacred place!" Picks up Beth. "There is no time to change horses now. Keep your weapons ready, the shadow might still be near!" By now every had mounted their horses, and they all leaft as fast as they could. "Could this be a Nazgûl shadow?" She said to Akidilwen as they raced off.

Neothen
11-21-2002, 06:50 PM
" Then we'll have to take extra percotion I'll be in the shadow just incase."* Neothen vanished but resided in everyone keeping an eye out for the company.*

*Lady Arwen*
11-21-2002, 07:29 PM
"Where is it that we are going? Can you sense where the shadow came from? For I fear that that is where we must go."

Weathergirl2006
11-21-2002, 11:33 PM
"Yes it is a posiblity...I can be sure from where he came.I am an expertwith shadows,But this one gave me a VERY strong feeling.it is indeed a strong shadow."She looks worried"He is still close i feel him close by."

*Lady Arwen*
11-21-2002, 11:48 PM
"Ride faster Enedfalath!" Looks around. "I fear he is coming, very near!"
Then inside her head she started to hear a high pitched screem. " Work of the enemy, just ignor it!" She thought to her self. It kept getting louder and louder. Until she let go of one hand from Enedfalath. Sudenlly all the bad things that had ever happend to her filled her mind. " Am I the only hering this?" She thought.

Weathergirl2006
11-21-2002, 11:51 PM
"What is that sound"She said almost too loudly"How do make them go away?!?"

*Lady Arwen*
11-21-2002, 11:54 PM
"Akidilwen do you hear it?! Or am I going mad." Rubs head. "A very dark shadow is falling over us. What is it that we can do?"

Neothen
11-22-2002, 01:23 AM
* Neothen was nowhere to be seen but he spoke to them with a soft voice.*" I will protect you from the shadow I'm in both your minds just concentrate on your destination NOW RIDE WITH GREAT SPEED!"

Weathergirl2006
11-22-2002, 01:47 AM
All of the sudden the sound stops"Thanks!!Faster!"

All the company was running and running for what it seemed hours untill they were save. The dark cloud left and the precense of the dark shadow seemed to be gone, for now. But still all of them were alert. It seemed that this place holded a great evil and great secrets also. Neothen appeared them. His magic made the shadow go away, but he said that he had sensed great power, and that probably that warning was only the begining. They decided to rest to rest for a while, leaving Neothen and Akidilwen watching the camp for the rest of the night. But even with that Beth couldn´t sleep. Nothing happened, they didn´t saw or feel anything. Whatever had disturbed them was gone now....
But in the morning something really strange happened. When everyone was up, suddenly Akidilwen saw a man that was standing right in front of them. Nobody had seem him, and it was simply because he had appeared a momment ago. He was wearing a brown cloth and he was at least forty years old. But his green eyes reflected a the vigor of a much younger man. They all went for they´re weapons but the man simply raised a hand in a pacific way and in almost a paternal voice he said:
´´Greetings travelers, i seek no harm. I am only here to guide you and answer all the questions you have, for is clearly as water that you don´t know this part of the land and you might need my help...´´

Neothen
11-22-2002, 01:40 PM
* Neothen didn't know what to think but if nobody senced danger than it was ok.*

Weathergirl2006
11-22-2002, 02:11 PM
"Hello..What is your name?Who do you know this?"She said when nobody responded for a few seconds.All were on high alert.

´´My name is Boukoroth, but just call me Bouk. I am many things and like many of you, i have many secrets. But for you, and for this momment, i am your guide as i said before.

" You have a way with words but you won't show us anything until we know enough about you."* Neothen stood with no weapon in his hand but he only used his mind and his eyes to search his enemies. Giving each enemy, that faced him an uneasy feeling.*

´´Life is full of questions Neothen, and i am sure you have a lot yourself. I can´t tell you much about me(not that it matter), but i guess the trust isn´t the same in other lands...Fine what else would you like to know about me?``

Weathergirl2006
11-23-2002, 05:20 PM
First,how do you know of our journy?Are you following us?She responded after a little thinking.
She whispers to Dimlondewen"I do not feel at ease with him"

sauronbill
11-23-2002, 09:35 PM
´´´Two simple questions that deserve two simple answers´´, said Bouk with a smile,´´the answer to the first question is easy: the reason of your journey is the same of every person that comes to this land(the search for the lost treasure). The answer to the second question is as simple as to know that a dragon will always have a treasure with him. The answer is: No... What else would you like to know?´´

Neothen
11-23-2002, 10:02 PM
" You choose your words wisely. But someone who is wise would ask more of us. Instead you study our reactions toward your arrival."* Neothen was getting impatient with the man.*

*Lady Arwen*
11-23-2002, 11:16 PM
Dimlondewen put a hand in front of Neothen, as to not let him pass. "He might be of some use yet." She wispered to him. Then to Bouk she said "So you know of the treasure, but you are wrong, that is not our reason of coming." She said these word in a hard tone, as if she was talking to something that had no right to live.

sauronbill
11-24-2002, 02:22 AM
´´My dear Neothen, i am afraid that you are mistaken. All i ask from all of you is a little trust, so that way i could take you to the place where you´ll meet your first task. If you do not choose me as your guide you´ll have the risk of fall into horrible traps of the evil that is already chasing you....while if you choose my path, i´ll take you with the right people who will be of great help, if you help them first....But one doubt have appeared on my mind right now´´, this time he looked to Dimlondewen,´´if the treasure wasn´t what brought you here, then what is it?

*Lady Arwen*
11-24-2002, 01:53 PM
"Death."She said simply. She did not trust him, she couldn't let him know anymore now. Now now, until they had his trust(if that ever happened). I new thought came to her mind, what if he was telling the truth. They intended to get the treasure to get back at what had been done to Ulath. Would they have to trust him? Was that the only way?

Neothen
11-24-2002, 02:41 PM
" I'll trust you but I'm keeping an eye on you."

But first i would like to know a little more about each one of yu, like names, places you were born, anything you want to tell me...´´and with this Bouk started to walk and the company followed him with carefull....

Neothen
11-24-2002, 08:48 PM
" You might know a bit about me but I was born in Doroth. My family has died at the hands of evil and I'm the last of my family."* Neothen looked to the ground trying to hold back his anger.*

11-25-2002, 02:11 AM
´´i am sorry to hear that´´, said Bouk,´´unfortunatelly for me i never had someone who look after me. No family no friends, but i guess something good comes from that. What about you?´´Bouk said pointing to Alkdilwen.....

´´Lothlorien, i was there once. Beautifull place´´, said Bouk with a smile,´´what about you two?´´he asked pointing to Dimlondewen and Beth....

*Lady Arwen*
11-25-2002, 06:51 PM
Beth want pink and didn't say anything. Dimlondewen looked at Beth then at Bouk. " I grew up in Rivendell, but my parents lived in Lothlórien. I went to Rivendell at early age to study. I was exiled from there by Master Elrond and am only alowed to return at his comand."
She then pushed Beth forward( who was hidding behind her still red in the face) Then she said "I grew up in a small village, with my parents, ohh my name is Beth."

sauronbill
11-26-2002, 01:08 AM
Bouk stopped then, he looked at Beth for quite a while like if she was some kind of thing for sale and he was making sure that it was the real thing. They all stood and looked at Bouk, after a while he continued walking with everybody asking what had he seeing in her,´´I can see why the evil want her now´´, he said with a worrying voice,´´she is the key....´´

Dimlondowen is the first to spot Muppsatan. She takes out the bow and arrow and points it at his throught. "What do you want traveller? Do you not know how to respect high eves and their company?"

" I think the walking would be good for us." Neothen starts to whistle as he walks beside Bouk.*

´´As i was saying about Beth´´´, said Bouk,´´she is the key to the lost treasure. The evil will try to get her, yu can count on that, also i don´t quite know if the evil knows about her....It is said that the only key to the treasure would be that person that would fill this description: 1.It could not have magic or power of any kind(not even elf magic); 2.It could not have been born in this land;and 3.her name would start with the first letter of the name of master of the treasure(who died 500 years ago) who´s name is Bankeinoth....Many travelers had come here but none of them had all this requisites. That´s why they all failed(and also because the evil got to them)...What the treasure really is nobody really knows, but it is something very important and dangerous, for even travelers that had adventured in the lost castle of Bankeinoth had not returned even when the evil wasn´t after them....There is some kind of magic around that castle, you can feel it in the air, is not evil but it doesn´t like strangers.....´´Bouk looked up to the entrance of a forest,´´we are almost there´´, he said whispering..............

11-30-2002, 03:27 AM
Beth looked at the stranger, squinting slightly.
"you don't know." she said quietly, shaking her head. "i'm not the 'key' or whatever you think i am. it could be anyone - anyone at all. Not me. i'm not . . . i couldn't be. Your wrong. find yourself another key,"
She turned her face away and would not meet anyone's eyes. What was she doing here? she didn't belong. a simple village girl amoung elves and sorcerers. . . it was absurd. But she would stay, as long as they would have her, for now, now there was nothing to go back to . . .
Leaping down lightly from Akidilwens horse, she muttered "i will walk."

*Lady Arwen*
12-01-2002, 12:18 AM
Dimlondowen got off the horse " Akidilwen make sure he(muppsatan) doen't do anything" She walked over to Beth and put a hand on her head. "Your size or race does not matter. You can be as brave and powerful as you want." Then she sang a song in elvish words softly in Beth's ear.

The song of Dimlondowen was suddenly interrupted by a great noise in the forest. A momment later they were surrounded by dryads. They were armed with large lances. One single movement and they were all dead. The most taller of the dryads pointed to them: ´´what´s your business in the forest of the dryads?Speak fast, for my patient is little....´´

*Lady Arwen*
12-01-2002, 02:08 AM
Dimlondowen gave Bouk a mad glace "Have the Elves not a right to cross these land in peace! We seek but an object of no importance to you. Let us cross! We have done you no harm , why do you point lances at us?!"

thoughtful20
12-01-2002, 02:19 AM
"Peace, friend." said Beth to the leading Dryad, suprising herself. She did not know why she was saying it. "I, at least, am no threat to you. If you doubt our honour, i pray you take me as proof that we mean you no harm and wish just to pass by."

*Lady Arwen*
12-01-2002, 02:32 AM
As Beth walked forward Dimlondowen grabed her hand "What are you doing?" She pulled Beth back "I know you want to help but there are other ways" She then said to the Dryad "What do you want to let us pass?"

thoughtful20
12-01-2002, 02:54 AM
Beth glanced at Dimlondowen, a slight fire in her eyes, then looked back towards the dryads, her actions clearly stating - "i stick to my word."

*Lady Arwen*
12-01-2002, 03:21 AM
She let go of Beth's hand and looked stuned for a moment. But she also could get mad also, and she did. She steped back and held Enedfalath's reins, looking at the Dryad's faces.

She looked at Akidilwen and said "I don't want them to take her."

12-01-2002, 04:45 PM
´´They will take no one´´, said Bouk and he looked at the dryad´s captain,´´take us to your leader.´´
´´Very well´´, said the dryad that had spoken,´´nothing that comes from Bouk the Druid can harm us. Come with us.´´They took them all to the interior of the forest, and there in a throne made of leaves was the king of the dryads. He looked bigger and stronger than a dryad, but most of all he looked wise. He was guarded by at least 30 dryads along with many others males, that looked like him. The king of the dryads stood up from the throne when they arrived. He hugged Bouk in a very affective way.They seemed like old friends.
´´Bouk, what brings you here? And who are this people that you brought with you?, said the king. His voice sounded had a sweet melody. You would say that he was more singing than talking.
´´There is a favor i need to ask you, Nankuror,´´said Bouk,´´they have come for the lost treasure.´´The king looked at Bouk with sadness.
´´You know what you are asking´´,said the king.
´´I know,´´said Bouk,´´but they have come to help you. They will solve all your troubles, i promise. They are the right people.´´
´´You said the same thing about all the other travelers you brought here,´´said the king,´´what makes yu think they would be different?´´
´´Believe me i know,´´said Bouk and he looked at Beth,´´this time it will be different.´´
´´They still have to pass the test, and you know it,´´said the king and this time he looked at the travelers. He measured each and everyone of them.´´Lemona pick yours´´, said the king and he returned to his throne.
The captain dryad that had brought them there gave two steps forward. She also looked at all the travelers. Then her eyes met those of Dimlondewen and the dryad pointed to her.´´Her,´´she said to the king,´´she look like the toughest.´´After saing this all the dryads made a circle and Lemona got in armed with her lance. She stood in the middle and looked back at Dimlondewen.

Bouk turned to Dimlondewen.´´I am sorry, but all the dryads have this tradition. You´ll have to beat their best warrior in the green circle, other way you won´t be honorable for any quest. Good luck. I know you´ll win. You can´t use any magic. It will be only sword against lance...´´
´´Very well,´´said Lemona looking at Dimlondewen,´´what are you waiting for?....´´

"Even thought I do not like war, when its is asked of me I will do it." She took out her sword, Doranath , and stood ready to fight. "This is an elven blade, given to me by prince Elladan in Rivendell, it has won me many battles. It shall not fail me now." With that she threw her self forward at Lemona, she defended her self with the lance. Then she attacked, aiming for her face. Dimlondowen ducked, but the lance made a cut on her face. She then took her sword up, and swong it at Lemona. She fell back, bleeding.

Lemona stood up. She didn´t expected this kind of enemy. This elf was strong, but Lemona was stronger and she knew it. The elf was agile, but that didn´t mean it was invencible. Lemona started to attack more slowly and more precise, keeping the opponent´s sword busy. She waited for the right momment to attack.....

His cold grey eyes stare back at him, his raven black hair framing his face. His high cheekbones suggest part elven heritage. With a sigh he bends down and drinks of the cold, clear stream. He stands and mounts his horse, grabbing a pack from the side of his saddle. He urges the horse forward and grabs a handful of dried fruit and thoughtfully chews on it. He wipes his hand on his cloak and grabs the reins, urging the horse to his limit*

Dimlondowen was starting to get tired. She didn't have time to attack, all she could do was block Lemona's firce atacks. Lemona was distracted when she saw two of her friends fall dead on the ground, she looked up. That was when Dimlondowen has her chance, she ran forward and knocked Lemola to the ground. She picked up Lemola's lance and pointed her sword to Lemola's face. "Withdraw from this battle so I do not have to kill you! Can't you see that you can not win this battle, give up now and let me spare you!" Lemola made only one movement as an answer, she looked up at her king. As if waiting for his permission.

´´Fights over,´´said the king,´´Dimlondewen is the winner.´´All the members of the company were really happy about this. They spend the night at the dryads forest where they ate delicious dishes made out of leaves and roots, but for some strange magic it tasted as good as meat and it was more easy to chew. The king made a meeting with them late night. Only the king and his most trusted captains were with him. Including Lemona who´s pride was hurt in the fight and now looked at Dimlondewen with anger eyes.´´The first mission we have for you, is very important,´´said the king,´´but also very dangerous. None of my dryads or the other travelers that had come here had acomplished. Listen very well. Not far from here there is another forest. It was the continuation of this forest, but that was a long time ago. In that forest there is the most important thing for the dryads. It´s the Dryad´s Tree. We named like that because we were the only ones who had the right to touch his fruits. As well as the only ones who could see it. For the tree is invisible and sincerely i don´t know how you´ll find it. The fruits of the tree were the most wonderfull thing ever seen. There were golden apples that for centuries we used their magic in order to keep the forest safe. But one day, a bunch orcs and ogres attacked the place and took it as their home. Even a fire golem was with them. Anyway the minute they took it the tree became invisible, even for us, and the treants that were the protectors of the place turned against us. Now here is the mission for you, you´ll have to get to the tree(if yu make it after the treants), and get two golden apples from the tree. Just two for that´s all we need. As i said before it´s not an easy assigment but i trust in the good judgment of Bouk. The trip will beging in the morning. For now good night to all and may the Tree of Life look out for you.....´´

Neothen
12-06-2002, 02:15 PM
* Neothen decided not to reveil himself at all. He thought to himself that it would be easy to find the tree with the fire golem there. It was just the fact of beating it. Neothen did not sleep that night instead he flew around the corridors watching everyones rooms closley.*

12-09-2002, 02:00 PM
The next day, the king and his captains went with them to the edge of the forest. "Becareful for this parts of the woods are full of orcs and other creatures that still live there. Bring the two golden apples back here as soon as you can. That is if you find it..." Said the king.
The company mounted their horses. Dimlondowen saw that Lemola was looking at her with an angry face, full of anger. She smiled back, for she did not want the anger of Lemola. At this Lemola made a strange face, as if she did not know what to do now.

"Go now! To enter this forest at night time is worst. " Said the King. So they entered the forest. Akidilwen with Neothen on her sholder and Dimlondowen, on Enedfalath, with Beth on the back.
They took out their weapons, Akidilwen a bow and arrow, Dimlondowen her sword, and Beth a long knife.
Into the dark forest they went...

The company was walking into the forest. They had no idea how they would find the tree but they were all hoping that Neothen could. The trees were strange in that forest. When they camped close to the afternoon, they felt another presence in the air. Something was not right. There were no animals here and no birds could be heard singing. It was a curse place. Beth sitted under a tree that was at least two times her size. When her back touched the bark something pushed forward. She turned around and gave a loud scream that was heard in all the forest. The tree had now eyes and it was moving toward them like a normal human been. The treants!, they all thought. The treant walked up to them and others like him joined him. Now they were surrounded by these guardians of the Dyrad´s tree. ´´What are you?And what is your business in this forest?´´, said one of the treants that obviously had never seen an elf or a human..........

thoughtful20
12-10-2002, 09:57 AM
Beth, breathing heavily, just recovering from her initial shock, looked up at the tree-man in wonder.
"Excuse me, sir." she said softly. He looked like a picture from a childhood story book, one that her father had once showed her . . . "We did not mean to disturb you or your friends. We have been sent by the Dryads. And . . . excuse me from asking, but, er, what are you?"

sauronbill
12-10-2002, 11:59 AM
´´We are the proud guardians of the Invisible Tree´´,said the treant in an angry voice,´´and we come from this forest. If you were send by the dryads then you must know that the dryads are no longer welcome here, or any of their friends....But i believe that we have made two questions first. I don´t know what you are, or from where you come from, but in this land is not polite to answer a question with another question.....´´

At the shock of the treant getting up, Dimlondowen's hand went to her sword. The treant now noticed her and made an even angrier face. "This is the reason we do not let the Dryads into this forst anymore! They come and cut down our trees! Put that away and never take it out while you are in this parts of the forest!" It said. Dimlondowen put it away, but took out her bow and arrow instead. "I cannot cut the trees with this weapon, and if you do not attack us I shall only have to use it to cut the 2 golden aaples from the invisable tree."

12-10-2002, 09:54 PM
´´As i said the dryads are not allowed in here anymore´´,said the treant. ´´How do i know that all of you are nothig but a bunch of thieves that had come not only to stole the Golden Apples but also to cut off the Invisible Tree? We don´t want to hurt you either, i would say that you are kind of lost. If you head back now(to whenever the hell you came from), we won´t chase you......But we can´t allow you to pass.....

"Hello I am Akidilwen.I am sorry for what has been done to you in the past.But if you wish you may walk with us to make sure we do not do any thing we set out to do which is to get only two golden apples.We do not want to harm anyone or thig here."With that the Treant seem to consider it."If you wish you may consult someone"Her voice was soothing which seem to calm the treant.

Neothen

" And anyways the Dryads don't want to cut the invisible tree down they see it as a source of life."

"Sir, if you would like, i, the most harmless of our group, could go ahead and fetch the apples - under your supervision and bearing no weapons of course . . ." having said this, Beth grew silent once more, looking away. When would she learn to leave the important matters with the important people? Who was she to meddle in the affairs of the elves?

*Lady Arwen*
12-11-2002, 02:10 PM
Everyone looked at Beth with surprise. They had almost forgoten she was there.The treant said "I shall take you to the tree then... But if you try to cut it down, or hurt it in any way you shall find that I am quite capable of killing Humans, Elves and even Wizards... Come this way."
He then led them forward, farther into the woods.

The treants took them to the interior of the forest. They didn't looked very convinced, but then again these strangers didn't seemed suspicious at all. The treants suddenlly stopped. ''We can only come untill this part of the forest...We are not allowed to go further. The magic of the tree won't let us. However, this is the only safe exit to this forest, and if your intentions are evil to the tree he can take out this force field and let us in...I don't know how you will do to find it, but that's your problem...We'll wait here for your return...''and with this the treants stopped and let the company advance further into the jungle.....

12-15-2002, 05:19 PM
OOC:Finally a reply!

IC: As they walked deeper in to the nto the jungle, the light started to give out. Thought it had not seemed tothem they had walked all day and evening was coming. They made their camp, but made not fire as to not anger the trees. The company sat in silence waiting and resting.

Neothen
12-16-2002, 01:49 PM
*Neothen walked slowly in circles scanning the trees one by one looking for signs of the fire golem.* "Better luck tomorrow."

*Lady Arwen*
12-16-2002, 08:27 PM
The next day they woke early and started the search. They all could feel danger growing stronger, yet it was far away. Dimlondowen was walking when she saw a golden leaf on the ground, she stoped and picked it up "This must be a leaf from the golden tree, we are close." she said to the others. They continued their walk, Beth who was walking looking up at the trees sudenlly hit something, she fell to the ground. " Ohhhhh! What was that!" When she looked there was nothing there...
"Neothen!" Akidilwen called as Dimlondowen went to help Beth up. Neothen, who had been flying high, looking for the tree now came down and landed on Akidilwen's shoulder. "What is it?" he said. Dimlondowen moved closer to the place where Beth had fallen and put up her hand to the air. "I think we have found it! I can feel a tree, but I see none." Dimlondowen said. "Neothen, can you see the tree?" Neothen flew to Dimlondowen out streached arm. "No..." he said.

"Well we found the tree!Noethen can you fly up and try to find the apples?"then turning to beth"are you ok?"

Before Beth could answer a great red flame raised from the floor, standing between Beth and Alkidiwen. The great flame then materialized into a six foot tall human figure , with red eyes. His entire skin was made of living flame and lava. The Fire Golem!! they all screamed, and went for their weapons. The golem made somekind of horrifying howl and threw flames at Alkidiwen. She got out of the way on time, when she looked again the golem turned to Beth. With a quick movement Bouk took it out of the way of the red flames that were thrown at her. Neothen tried to fly down to help his friends, and that's when they heard the howls. Howls coming from everywhere around them. Orcs!! they all thought, and a momment later the forest was full of orcs(at least 30 of them) attacking them. Bouk protected Beth at all cost, but he knew his strength and magic wasn't enough for a fire golem and so many orcs, and.....Before he could finish two more strong howls came from the end of the forest. Breaking the roots that was on their way, two trolls came to join the battle. They had been behind, maybe hidding in some kind of cave. They all looked at the trolls and they started to get even more worried, including Neothen. If the treants could help them this would have been a piece of cake, but the Invisible Tree was no where to be seeing and it seemed that this tree wasn't affected by fire....They all interrupted they're thoughts to come back to the fight. If they were going to win, they would win alone. Neothen founded a safe spot to land, but he wandered if he could help his friends on time.....

Neothen
12-17-2002, 02:01 PM
*Neothen was not pleased with the sudden attack. He couldn't help his friends so he concentrated on finding the tree. He turned to normal form but right then a fire ball hit his arm and scortched it. Neothen saw the fire golem and shot some liquid ice at the beasts arm. He knew it wouldn't hold the beast for long but it would give Bouk enough time. Neothen jumped to the next tree but when he did he hit his head on an invisible branch. He felt around for a golden apple and he found two. He put them in his robes and tried to return to his friends but his arm was maddly bleeding and it was pussing. Neothen was starting to faint, some kind of poison was effecting his body.*

12-17-2002, 10:35 PM
As Alkilidwen made herself unnoticed.She slipped behind the fire monster get beth who had collapsed in fear.she picked her up and ran from the tree.they all attacked the orcs."where is the weakest spot on the golem.."she was asking bouk when she saw her friend falling from the tree.she ran under him to catch him just before he hit the ground.

*Lady Arwen*
12-18-2002, 01:13 AM
Dimlondowen was running low on arrows, also she could only hit the orcs since when her arrows hit the fire golem they just bured up and did not hurt him. She was hurt and bleeding, she had to hold off the orcs alone since her friend were buzy with the golem. "Bouk we've got to get out of her! Beth and Neothen have fainted, 3 cannot win a battle against a golem and orcs. We have to run, get out of these parts of the forest! Or I could..." With that she took out a a small bottle which looked like it had light comming from the inside. She trew it on the ground and a bright light came out, the golem and orcs vanished.

*Lady Arwen*
12-18-2002, 01:14 PM
She fell to the ground, grabed the bottle( which was not broken) and covered it. The light stoped, she quickly but it in her bag and went to help the others. Akidilwen was holding both Beth and Neothen, Dimlondowen went to help her. "We've got to get out of here! There might be more, has Neothen got the 2 apples? " Akidilwen nodded, with a stuned face. Bouk was also wearing an expresion of half stuned, half angry. She mounted her horse and Beth in front of her and Bouk got on behind. Akidilwen mounted her horse holding Neothen, who had not yet recovered. Then Akidilwen said "What was that!?". "I'll tell you when we get out of the forest! Ride now! And ride fast, I see more orcs coming" Dimlondowen replyed looking back. "Go Enedfalath!" And they started to run. They rode well into the night but they were close to the place were they had entered this part of the forest. Neothen and Beth had recovered and now were also aking questions to Dimlondowen, but she answered none and said "Wait until we get out of the forest"

Neothen
12-18-2002, 01:42 PM
*Neothen was in pain, the poison from the golems flame was spreading through his body. Neothen had the cure in his robe but it wouldn't be enough the poison slowly torchered him.*

Weathergirl2006
12-18-2002, 02:07 PM
"Its ok .hold on were almost out!"she kept whispering th Neothen"Dimlondowen! we need to help him.I can feel it sprading through him.I can help him if we find a certain grass.It commonly called ice grass becuase its very cold to the touch.it should help."

Neothen
12-18-2002, 05:36 PM
"My....pocket.....med...medecine." *Neothen fell uncontious.*

*Lady Arwen*
12-18-2002, 10:04 PM
"He wants us to get the medicine in his pocket!" Akidilwen graged a small bottle in Neothen's pocket and gave it to him. Neothen, relaxed. "We have to get to the treants! We're all hurt." Neothen started to recover slowly as they reached the edge of the forest.

12-24-2002, 02:35 AM
The company continued running and got to the treants. The orcs that followed them were crushed like flies by these moving trees. "We made it ", said Bouk. The treants let them return to the dryads for they didn't felted any danger toward the great tree. The dryads received them with great happiness and joy. Even Demona. The king gave them all medals of leaves in recognition for their valor. The company had a great festival in the city of the dryads. The king had promise they would depart in the morning, toward the treasure. He wish them all their luck before he went to sleep. Everybody was happy except Bouk that in this night of victory and festivity he kept for himself most of the time....

Weathergirl2006
12-24-2002, 04:15 PM
She had fun celebrating but she stay on guard because she had learned not to let it down.After the party was over she went t dimlondowen's room."Can we talk?"Sure "she said as they went in her room to talk."Did you notice Bouk behavior today?"

*Lady Arwen*
12-26-2002, 01:45 AM
"Yes, I did notice. He seemed almost sad, yet angry of our victory."Even though I do not trust him complitely, what can I do? One does not simply go up to another and ask if he is a traidor. All we can do is wait and keep a close watch on him. " Akidilwen complied, there was nothing to do but wait until he was proven guilty. The next day the Dryads called then early to the talk with the king.

sauronbill
12-26-2002, 11:47 PM
The king said good bye to the travelers that morning. Then Demona and four other dyrads went ahead with the company following them."Where are we going Bouk? Where are they taking us?", asked Akidilwen impatiently.
"The dryads are the only ones that know the entrance to the dark mountain. At least the safe entrance. They are guide in us to a secret tunnel which only them can open. It is one of the best secrets of their tribe, that's why the king was so worried and didn't give it to you for free. He had to get something in return of that secret, and now he did. There is a very important thing inside the Temple of the Gnomes. This temple is inside the mountain. We'll have to find the temple for ourselves inside, take The Red Eye of Dorgarakth, and get out alive in the other side of the mountain. Any questions?"

*Lady Arwen*
12-26-2002, 11:57 PM
"Dwarf runes?" Asked Dimlondowen "And after we get the Red Eye of Dorgarakth, and come out on the other side of the mountain. Where will we go from there?"

Neothen
12-27-2002, 12:34 AM
*Neothen was limping because the poison had effected his strength. His head was throbing and his legs were weakening.* "I'm glad the Dryads didn't get mad because I never reveiled myself in the first place."

*Lady Arwen*
12-27-2002, 12:54 AM
"It was a good thing they didn't" she said looking at Lemona "All we nead is another Dryad mad at us"

Weathergirl2006
12-27-2002, 12:59 AM
'Yes we need all the help we can get!"She said with a smile although she was worried on the prolong effects of the posin in neothen.

*Lady Arwen*
12-27-2002, 01:05 AM
Neothen was limping more now and couldn't get up the slope with out help "Do you think it would help if you turned into a bird? That way you can stay on someone's shoulder and not walk" Dimlondowen was getting woried about Neothen.

Neothen
12-27-2002, 01:09 AM
"I'll be fine, but the poison should have worn off by now."

*Lady Arwen*
12-27-2002, 01:18 AM
By now they reached a cave entrance. The dryads left and the were on their own, the cave was dark and damp "Bouk, do you know they way throught these caves?"

Weathergirl2006
12-27-2002, 01:35 AM
"Neothen i think you should relax.I would be more than honored if you would sit on my shoulder.i think the posin has some magical prolonged effect becuase its not naturally this long."Neothen seemed to be getting weaker.

Neothen
12-27-2002, 01:49 AM
"Your right" *Neothen turned into an eagle and perched himself on Akidilwen's shoulder.*

*Lady Arwen*
12-27-2002, 02:00 AM
They entered the cave. It was dark, but Bouk leed the way. The only light came from phile that that Dimlondowen was holding. They went deeper into the cave. It was quiet, too quiet. It was then that they started to hear little sounds of laughter. Then every thing went quiet again; they continued.

Weathergirl2006
01-04-2003, 04:11 PM
"I dont like it here.I feel something is wrong."She said 0utloud.Even though it was a whisper,everone could hear her be cause it was so quiet."bouk how long is the tunnel?"

*Lady Arwen*
01-05-2003, 02:36 AM
"Its is still a long way, we might have to spend the night here..." Said Bouk. "Let quiken our pace so that we do not have to spend the night here.."

Dimondowen couldn't wait to get out of the cave.

01-05-2003, 10:02 AM
"Nobody in these lands know how really big this tunnel is",said Bouk after a while,"the truth is that the dwarfes and the gnomes that lived here made close to one hundred tunnels that go in every direction of this mountain. Two hundred years ago I was invited as a guest of honor to this wonderfull dwarf city. I made many friends here, specially gnomes. Their magic were powerfull and it was their magic that keep it the dark forces away from this mountain. The dwarfes paid a small fee(in comparison with the huge riches they got from the mountain) every year to the gnomes in return for their protection and their support. For the gnomes were not only protectors and helpers, but also they were healers. But actually i must say that the gnomes always asked for the best part of the treasure every time they asked for their anual fee. One of those great treasures was The Red Eye of Dorgarakth(which story i'll tell later on)...."Anyway one day one of the gnomes started a revolution. He considered that his race had been stealing from the dwafes for many centuries. By the time they tried to stop him, he had convinced most of the dwarves. Most of the gnomes were killed and in result the great magic that keep the dark forces out was taken away. The dark forces(both outsiders and from underground), get in and slaughtered all the dwarves and the rest of the gnomes. That's why you felt uncorfortable Akidilwen, this place is curse by evil. I hope that our precense be undetected, or we could be in serious trouble....

"What happen to the gnome that started the revolution?",asked Neothen.
"Some say he worked for the dark side,"said Bouk with a sad look,"but i believe otherwise. I knew him when he was still young and arrogant. Truth, maybe he was a little violent and proud, but he wasn't a bad person. I think that he wanted a better kingdom for the dwarves and his people, but instead of that he brought the distruction of both races...."
"So is he dead?"asked Dimlondewen.
"I am afraid i cannot answer that .i simply don't know. We'll see".Bouk suddenlly stopped and sit down,"i think we ought to take a rest. We've been walking for almost 7 hours now. We'll continue tomorrow."
"So how long we'll be in this tunnel?",asked Dimlondewen.
"It depends,"said Bouk
"Of what?"
"On how well i remember the way to get out of here"
"That means that we could be here for days?
"Even weeks, maybe a month."
"Oh my God!"
"Well is better than to die here, or get lost in here without a proper guide."they all agreeded to that.
"For now, let's get some sleep. Who will make the first guard?"

*Lady Arwen*
01-05-2003, 06:18 PM
OOC: How can you write that much sauronbill?:eek:

IC:"I will" said Dimlondowen. While the other rested Dimlondowen sat on a rock looking into the darkness. She started to hear a small voice: someone asking for help, them much screaming. Bouk woke up and Dimlondowen said to him "Whats all this noise?" "Its the Dwrafs and Gnomes pleeding for mercy before they all died."

Weathergirl2006
01-05-2003, 07:45 PM
"Why are they trapped here?Can they not leave now?"Alkidilwen said as she shivered."Can they harm us or get us lost (if were not already she thought ).I do not like it here"

sauronbill
01-05-2003, 09:43 PM
"There are other things beyond this world Akidilwen,"said Bouk a little angry for the screams interrupted his nap,"this day must have been the day all these dwarves died. I guess is fair to say that some of their souls still rest here, and that's why they scream. I guess they still don't know they're dead, so in this day of their death they must have had horrible flashbacks. "Bouk turned around trying to fall sleep again. "Don't worry, most probably tomorrow the screams will cease."

Neothen
01-06-2003, 12:40 AM
*Neothen was still confused so he hopped over to Bouk.* "That gnome you were talking about, it sounds like an imp I resently met back home. He turned into some kind of demon and he called himself Dimone."

sauronbill
01-06-2003, 01:45 PM
"I can't say if your gnome is the same as mine,"said Bouk after thinking for a few minutes." There are rumors that he is still inside these mines, waiting for the death to arrive. Others said that he was killed in the war, and his soul is still guarding some of the dwarf's treasure,"Bouk sighted,"in any case, his soul must be very hurt....."

*Lady Arwen*
01-06-2003, 05:45 PM
"The Dwarf's treasure, is it The Red Eye of Dorgarakth? Is that were we are going? Right to the place were the soul is gaurding the treasure?" Said Dimlondowen, half to herself.

sauronbill
01-07-2003, 05:54 AM
"The Dwarf's Treasure is much more than just the Red Eye of Dorgarakth,"said Bouk smiling,"but i must said is one of the most valuable pieces. "Bouk sighted, he probably wouldn't get any sleep that night."More than five hundred years ago, the great mage Bankeinoth(the master of the treasure), discovered an amazing thing. The guardian of The Lost Treasure was a great big rock in the form of a dragon. A legend said that many centuries ago a great dragon named Dorgarakth gived his soul to a powerfull elf in exchange for the protection of this homeland.The elf casted a spell on the dragon and made him an eternal guardian making him a magic rock that would always have the power to bring good to this land. For centuries the power of the magic lasted. But one day one of the eyes of Dorgarakth was stolen. Nobody knew how, but it was. The evil plagued this land years after that. Everybody had give up hope, but Bankeinoth saw it much further. By the power of his magic he came to the conclusion that the Red Eye was in one of this mountains. He didn't had any idea of how did it get there, but he just knew it was there. He tried to talk to the dwarves, but they never listened to him. Years after that he made the enchantment of the Chosen One. Someone with several characteristics that would save this land from evil(Beth in my opinion is the Chosen One), and then Bankeinoth dissappeared. Never to be seen again. A few centuries later The Red Eye was found in these mines. The dwarves only saw it like the biggest rubie they ever seen, but the gnomes knew its importance. They tried to hide it, until the Chosen One appeared. The king trusted me and the king of the dryads with the mission of searching this particular person. But in these two centuries we could never found it. And before we could do anything this mountain was cursed by evil too. Both the king and i gave up the searching, for we thought everything was lost. But now that i have seen Beth, my hopes are up again, and i think the evil has his days counted......"

*Lady Arwen*
01-07-2003, 02:41 PM
It was dawning for the little light that got into the cave was getting brighter. They had breakfast and continued their jorney It went to the top of the cave's cealing, encrusted with jewels. It was locked.

sauronbill
01-10-2003, 09:15 AM
Bouk tried to open it up, but he couldn't. They all pushed the door but couldn't moved. Bouk and Neothen tried some enchantments, but none worked. "I think that is our problem,"said Bouk pointing to a sculture of an elephant head that was at the right side of the door. However this elephant head had no trunk."The trunk is the key,"explained Bouk. They all searched for it all around and Beth find it. Dimlondewen put the trunk in the head, it fitted perfectly. Then she pulled up, and the gate opened. They all went inside with fear in their hearts, but prepared for anything. The door behind them closed violently. Everyone turned around and try to reopened but couldn't. There was another elephant head at the left of the door. But once again without a trunk. They all faced the strange room. It was not very big, but not very small either. There wasn't other exit that the entrance door.
"This must have been somekind of prison or something like that,"said Bouk. He looked around and the others did the same. The room was full of shields, and weapons and bodies of all sort: orcs, dwarfes and even gnomes. The putrifying smell filled the room. The most strange thing were that the walls of the room was full of halls, big halls like if some big rats had made tunnels all around. Bouk recognized inmediatly.
"Everybody quick arm yourselves,"said Bouk, his voice was filled with fear. "Beth look for the trunk fast, go."
"In all this?"said Beth,"how am i going to find it?
"Don't ask, just do it"said Bouk with a hard voice. Then a loud growl sounded in all the room. It came from one of the halls,then from another, and then another. Before they could realize it, the noise was coming from all of the halls, and it seemed to get closer.
"Fernacs,"explained Bouk,"they are large green beasts(the size of a big dog) that feed upon the putrid flesh. Most of them live underground, they must have made the tunnels when the magic was taken away..." After saying these words horrible green beasts came out of the halls growling. They looked like large dogs but they were different and their sking was putrified. However they had large teeth and an inmense appetite.There were many of them,close to forty. They jumped to the ground getting close to the company from all around. They loved fresh prays. " Look out for their bites,"said Bouk ,sword in hand,"one bite is venonous enough to kill a large bear in a matter of minutes. Beth find that trunk, we'll protect you." The fernacs started to circle the company, and some of them started to attack,.....

*Lady Arwen*
01-10-2003, 01:25 PM
Akidilwen was useing a bow, Neothen was casting spells and Bouk and Dimlondowen were useing swords. Beth was huring around the room while Bouk protected her from the fernacs. "We have to close the hole from were they are coming from! Or else more will just keep on coming! Neothen, can you cast a spell to block that hole? " Dimlondowen asked Neothen pointing to the hole were the fernacs were coming from.

Neothen
01-10-2003, 05:38 PM
"I'll try!" Neothen yelled runing to the hole. He raised his hands infront of the hole and shot fire through it. Then Neothen glazed the hole with a white forcefield. Then he turned to one of the creatures. Neothen took out his wand and extened it to six feet. He then wacked and at the creatures and fired at them.

*Lady Arwen*
01-14-2003, 06:45 PM
All the fernacs that had lived were behind the forcefield. Beth was still running around the room looking for the trunk. "Hurry, the forcefield won't hold for long!" said Neothen. Then Beth came out of behind a huge rock screaming "I've found it! I've found it!"
They put the trunk in place and entered the open door. As the first door had done, it closed behind them. When the door closed it let no light enter the room, it was very dark. Neothen used his magic to make flames come out of his hand. Then continued their jorney in the semi-dark, not knowing what was ahead.

01-15-2003, 09:47 PM
''Let's hope we don't run into another of these trap tunnels,"said Bouk, after a while of walking.. "I am sorry for that, i should have known better...''said Bouk angry now. The truth was that Bouk felt very responsible for all the company. Because he was the guide in these dark places the company had put their trust in him, and Bouk knew that trust is not a thing that you give to anybody. He hoped that they wouldn't lost their trust in him, and that they continue with him all the way... After more than an hour of walking the road divided into four tunnels. Bouk remembered that the second tunnel from left to right, conducted to the great Silver Hall. However he didn't felt so sure to take that way, The Silver Hall was full of rooms and it was almost in the middle of the mountain. That means that probably the danger was further much worse than any other tunnel they would take. But then again Bouk only remembered that path to get to The Temple of the Gnomes....Bouk sighted after a while of thinking and then he pointed to the second hall. "Let's hope we are prepared for this,''he said with a low voice...

*Lady Arwen*
01-15-2003, 09:51 PM
Dimlondowen already had her sword out, prepared to attack any thing that might be coming. She stayed close to Beth, if she was the chosen one or not, she didn't want anything to get her.

Neothen
01-16-2003, 12:30 AM
Neothen wasn't comforted by the tone of Bouks voice. He moved on with the others.

Weathergirl2006
01-16-2003, 01:42 AM
Alkidiwen stopped suddenly"I feel great danger"She said with much distress."It comes on much stronger than before.What do we do.All i can say is not LEFT!Where does that lead..?"

sauronbill
01-16-2003, 08:23 PM
"Exactly to where we are going Alkidiwen,"said Bouk," The Great Silver Hall, I know the danger is much, but let's hope we don't atract any to us, be carefull where you step, the dwarfes made many traps that protected the hall against uninvited guest...."

*Lady Arwen*
01-16-2003, 10:58 PM
They entered the Great Silver Hall after some more hours of walking. Beth jumped ahead, and started running. "I think I've been here before... I know I have!" Then she steped in a trap, a huge rock bll came rolling out to meet her.

Neothen
01-17-2003, 12:37 AM
"Beth!!!!" Neothen yelled as he ran to her and pulled her away in his arms letting the boulder pass.

*Lady Arwen*
01-17-2003, 02:11 AM
"Bouk, you are right about this place. Its is full of traps... We must be very careful, this will turn our journey slower." said Dimlondowen.

sauronbill
01-21-2003, 09:44 PM
"That's what i was afraid of.."said Bouk with a low whisper. Bouk wasn't very happy with the traps, true he remembered the road a little bit well, but about the traps he wasn't so sure. "Maybe is better if we take another path", thought Bouk , but he knew that was impossible. He didn't knew another way around. Then he saw them.... The saloom of the Gargols. This was another part of the traps of the Silver Hall. It consisted in a large road that had large colums at each side, left and right. Each of the columns had one different gargol. There was 24 colums in total. Twelve right, and twelve left. Each of the gargols were different, and their eyes seemed so real that you would say they were alive.
"Nobody move", said Bouk with a loud scream that scared everybody...
"What's the matter Bouk?"asked Beth
"I didn't remember this untill I saw it just now. Dwarfes and other creatures used to play this little game back then. It was invented by the gnomes.I never tried, but i have seened do it and i can tell you is not piece of cake.....There are at least 12 feet between every gargol, they are all different traps of every kind. We cannot destroy them, or harm them, or go around them...
"Why not?", asked Neothen
"You see the first two gargols?, asked Bouk. Everybody look at it. The two statues seemed to have some sort of magic in them, and they're arms were signaling the long road, like inviting them to play the game."They are the masters of the game...."explained Bouk,"they invite you to play the minute you step in front of this road, if we go around it we'll all die within the minute. The gnomes were the only ones that knew how to control the masters, but now that they're gone, we'll have to play the game..."Bouk sighted and stepped forward..
"Do you know how to play? "asked beth with a voice.
"I remember something about the rules, the rest will come to me,"Bouk stepped inside the road. They all followed him but he stopped them.
"Stay where you are, and don't advance untill i say so. Maybe some of us can pass the traps, maybe some of us can't....We'll see."Bouk was really worried now, and he knew that there was no way back. They had to face the game and win it, or the contrary they would drop dead. These were the rules of this game. Bouk advanced into the second two gargoles. He looked at them. Both gargols had normal bows with arrows. They were ready to shoot, and they seemed very concentrated in what they were doing. Bouk recognized the first game.
"Wind,"he said,"all right who is the best avoiding arrows?"he asked the company.
"What do you mean by that?"asked Alkidilwen
"One of us will have to stand in the middle of the two gargols-archers. They will both shoot at the same time to the contestant that stand between them. There can't be no magic use. If the contestant is quick and good enough he will catch the two arrows in flight before they even touch him." They all looked at each other horrified."Well,"asked Bouk,"who wants to be the first?

"I will..." Said Dimlondowen. She steped forward, nothing happened. Then the two arrows came out at her, she caught both, but after she caught the second it made a cut on her hand. Nothing happend to them, they had passed the first part of the game, 5 to go.
Where the arrow had cut her hand it as beging to swell. "Careful, don't let their weapons touch you. They are all poisoned, I'll be alright. " She said wraping her hand in a piece of cloth.

" are you sure your all right?"she seemed to be in a lot of pain"you should let someone else do the next one"...."what ever it is"

Bouk looked relieved. He had been a little scared that Dimlondewen wouldn't make it. At least the first test had been passed. They all looked to the other statues. The two third statues had yellow eyes and heat could be felt coming from their mouths.
"Fire,"said Bouk sadly,"Neothen i think you are up next. How good are you holding the heat of the flames? You'll have to stand in the middle and hold the flames they throw at you...... They'll decide when to stop, if you are good enough..." Bouk sounded worried.

*Lady Arwen*
01-23-2003, 12:00 AM
"Wind, fire, there will be water next I think." Said Dimlondowen steoing back to not get in the way of the flames.

Neothen
01-23-2003, 12:47 AM
Neothen agreed and stood in the middle of the two statues. He coated his hands with a sheet of ice to ease the pain. Suddenly two fire balls shot from the gargoils mouth. Neothen caught the flames and held them loosly. His past training with endering the pain of fire and magic would pay off for him. The eyes of the statues seemed to taunt him as the flames burnt through the ice. Pain struck hard at his palms but the only sign was drops of sweat running down Neothen's face. The fire got hotter as it got closer to his skin starting to dry and peal his layers. The flames suddenly vanished but his hands were deep red and his skin began to peal. Neothen stepped back useing his magic to heal his hands. But his hands became white and fragile needing time to regain their color and strength.

To the next chalange, the steped forward. "What do we have to do now?" Asked Akidilwen.

They moved to the nex pair of statues. Bouk recognized inmediatly and this time he felt bad about playing this game. The two statues seemed to be in a mood for a pleasant conversation. It seemed like they were inviting you to have a little chat with them. Bouk sighted, this would be difficult for them. Specially for him.
"Sacrifice", said Bouk,"that's the next test."
"What?", said Alkidiwen,"you mean one of us has to die...."
"No, no,"said Bouk,"the statues demand that one of us stay in their realm. That way the game will become much more exciting. One of us has to stay behind. The rest of the contestants will have to face the next test by themselves."
"Then I'll do it", said Beth stepping forward, but Bouk stopped her.
"This test is for me only,"he said,"and is not because i want to give my life for any of you(i am not that crazy). It's because the gargols will accept only the guide as the sacrifice. You see, that way the next test will be more exciting without someone guiding you."
"But why does it have to be you? Why not any of us?", asked Neothen.
"That is exactly the test. That you face the next trap without someone to tell you. The next test I remember is Greed. You'll figure it out. Don't worry."After those words Bouk stood between the two gargols.
"It will be fine,"he said smiling at the time that he transformed in stone. They were all got scared. But that was exactly the game, if they make it to the next test Bouk will return to normal. If not he will be stone forever. The walked beside him. Bouk looked like a live statue. They looked to the next gargoles. One was white and the other was red. But each had a precious stone in their hands. THe red one had a huge diamond in her hands(as big as a man's head), and the white one had a huge rubi(same size). Both gargols were looking at each other with hate. The company stopped to ask themselves what was the trick of this strange trap.....

*Lady Arwen*
02-06-2003, 05:59 PM
Dimlondowen was looking from one gargoyle to the other "What do we have to do here?" She asked herself. She then asked the company "Does anyone think they know what they have to do?"

Neothen
02-06-2003, 06:04 PM
"Maybe it's a trick test, maybe it's so simple that we should just switch the jewels." Neothen said with a confused voice.

*Lady Arwen*
02-08-2003, 01:34 PM
"Bouk said this is the test of greed, but you might be right with the part of switching the jewels. I think one of us will have to go there and swicth them without thinking any moment of taking them with them, wanting them for their self. And I think I know what happens if you fail..." She pointed upwards, were another stone gargoyle with a bow arrow waited to shoot...

occ: All right guys. You discovered the test, that is precisly the idea ,Dimlondewen. Hurry up and switch the stones so we can get out of here.....

*Lady Arwen*
02-09-2003, 03:33 PM
OOC: Yay! I got it right!

IC: Beth said "I'll do this one! I've never cared much for jewels any ways." She steped forward, first she went over to the one with the Ruby then the Diamond. After she changed their place the two jewles crumboled to dust. They advanced to the next task.

Neothen
02-11-2003, 07:52 PM
OOC: Ahem, it was I who had the idea of switching the jewels.:D

*Lady Arwen*

Just then Bouk appeared. "Woosh... Thank you so much guys, I thought i would be rock forever. Don't be afraid the next and last trap will be easy. It's call "friend of the dwarves". And it simply means that if your intentions are good toward the dwarves you'll pass. However i saw some humans, gnomes, and even dwarves loose to this test, but i don't think we'll have a problem." After saying these words Bouk passed the two statues. There wasn't even a movement. The gargols made no sound.
"Common,"said Bouk. Beth tried to go next, but before she stepped between the two gargols, a small shadow passed the two statues. It was so fast no one saw it. Not even Bouk.And a second later the gargols made a loud long growl that sounded in all the mountain. They all stayed petrified. Then there was a rumble noise coming from every where, and they also started to hear screams and howls. Then orcs, licantropus and other creatures started to come out of the halls and to came from the tunnels. They started to come from everywhere.
"Quicly, we have to hide,'said bouk at the time he started to run, the others followed him....

*Lady Arwen*
02-15-2003, 06:17 PM
Behind one of statues, there was a crack. It was large but well hidden. They all hid in there, waiting for the orcs to come...

Neothen
02-17-2003, 12:38 AM
Neothen decided to get a better look so he took his eagle form and flew up to the highest gargole. The orcs spilled in at the hundreds. "Now what do we do?" Neothen thought to himself.

"Quick, run toward that room, this hideout is not secure enough", said Bouk at the time he started to run toward the room. The room was really big, and it seemed to be bigger. Bouk remembered that there was somekind of secret entrance here, but his thoughts were interrupted with the howls of the orcs coming into the room. All the company armed, and started defending from the attackers. Bouk pulled out his sword one more time, and stood in front of Beth protecting her from the orcs that were coming in dozens.....

*Lady Arwen*
02-19-2003, 09:07 PM
Akidilwen used her bow, Dimlondowen used her sword. "Bouk! You beter find the secret entrance quickly, the orc are coming quicker!"

Neothen
02-20-2003, 01:04 AM
Neothen flew down to the stone floor and turned into his human form. He then unsheathed his sword and charged into the oncoming orcs.

sauronbill
02-21-2003, 05:02 AM
"How can i find the secret door with dozens of orcs attacking us?"said Bouk at the time he tried to defend from the orcs. Bouk swinged his sword killing and hurting orcs everytime he could. He used his staff to stop incoming swords, and daggers. And also to shoot green bolts toward an orc every time he could. Then he said,"The doors of the room has been destroyed, we have to find a way to block them first......."

Neothen
02-22-2003, 02:28 AM
Neothen got into the middle of the company and cast a force field of white light infront of the orcs. "I can't hold this long it's to much stress....Hurry!" Neothen was sweating hard now and he was getting tired fast.

*Lady Arwen*
02-22-2003, 02:45 AM
Dimlondowen moved closer to Beth so that Bouk could look for the passage without worring about her.

sauronbill
02-22-2003, 04:40 AM
Bouk did the best he could to find the secret tunnel. He was sure it was one of the animal statues in the room. He tried the snake, but it didn't worked, he tried the elephant but it didn't worked either. "Damn it,"said Bouk and hit the tiger statue. The company was lucky, because this was the right statue. The tiger head opened the mouth, and a momment later a part of the wall opened.
"Move!!"said bouk pointing to the tunnel at the time he went to help Neothen who was had almost fainted. " Beth help Neothen get up, Alkidiwen and Dimlondewen let's cover them,"after saying this the light field dissapeared and the orcs attacked for the second time.......

*Lady Arwen*
02-22-2003, 02:40 PM
Before the force field had even gone out, both Akidilwen and Dimlondowen had their bows ready. As Neothen went with Beth to the tunnel entrance the others followed.
After they had all entered it, the tunnel closed. It was dark and damp inside, outside they could still hear the orcs.

Neothen
02-22-2003, 02:57 PM
"Well," Neothen said panting hard, "What do we do next?"

*Lady Arwen*
02-23-2003, 12:14 AM
"I guess we must follow the tunnel, we cannot turn back... Bouk, do you know were this tunnel leads?" Said Dimlondowen, still bow in hand.
