Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
Qiu blinked.
"I only trust weapons which I am crafting myself.' he said quitly, taking the sword back to it's sheath, staring at the marvelouse destruction it created.
"I had to... If I wanted to be the most useful soldier for the kings I has served.'
was it the truth?
Was it?
Didn't he do it... because he believed a weapon was.. more than a piece of iron? A piece of his agonized soul?Thanks for the OOTSkage of OOTS art, Lord Raziere.

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
"Alas, while a noble of many skills, I myself am no blacksmith", Lord Kuchiki laments in response. "But, if you would make me a blade such as yours, I would pay handsomely. State your price. What do you want from this afterlife of yours?"

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
Qiu blinked shocked.
During seven life times.. no one ever has asked him that.
"I... am.. not.. sure...' his voice shakened with shock
"Maybe.. will you accept a sword of mine.. as sign of gratitude?" he has offered, avoiding the hard question.Thanks for the OOTSkage of OOTS art, Lord Raziere.

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
"Of course", Lord Kuchiki replies without second thought. "Me and mine will do what we can to provide you with the best forge and tools for this job. Just inform me what you need and we will get to it."

to grow old and wither and die."

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
The Necromancer finds Kane Shiba in his tent, where he is led to by an aid who it is clear has lost some sort of wager amongst his fellows to be stuck with such a task, and takes to it with equal parts fear, disgust, and hatred.
"My Lord, you have a... guest." Is all Yan Waso Shen gets by means of introduction.
The Lord Shiba is leaning over the table, arranging troop formations, and writing orders to various commanders. He stands upright then turns. "You're back."

"For now." Comes the Necromancer's reply, casting its gaze at the others in attendance. "You've built swiftly. I require your aid in a spell. It will take some convincing to bring your foe to the table. Leave your servants to their tasks." With that Yan Wao Shen simply turns and walks out of the tent, not even gazing back to see if he's being followed.

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
Qiu was shocked. What kind of Lord he was? The Kuchiki Lord had the right to enslacve Qiu- and he has accepted such an outragouse offer?
Qiu knew he should looked down on man who is acting with such weakness
But he couldn't but see it as a greater honor than he has ever seen before.
Lord Kuchiki was a warrior and soldier. yes.
But he was a free man, leading only men who are willing to die for him? No one was forced into his service?
Qiu was speechless for a minute.
He bowed his head. "The Afterlife is sure filled with wonders- despite of my pulloted karma."
He looked at Lord Kuchiki. "It would be a painful process. Are you up to that? Because my sword... The heart of it, was forged from the iron inside my heart." Qiu said in such way, that it wasn't clear if it literal or metaphorocal- maybe both.Thanks for the OOTSkage of OOTS art, Lord Raziere.

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
There are some who might laugh at the suggestion that Lord Kuchiki has a heart. "When and for how long is my contribution needed?", he asks. "As the head of my house, I am needed in many places. It would not do for me to commit the same mistake as... it would not do for me to make the mistake of retreating from mundane affairs for too long." What was that weird pause there?

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
There was a raised eyebrow, and when no information save the back of the Necromancer was forthcoming, Kane Shiba sighs. He gives a few brief orders to the people around the table, then follows the dark visage. As always, his sword is strapped across his back. He did not believe it to be a trap, but incautious men had died to such ruses before.
Kane Shiba would not be one.
When they reach their destination, he asks simply. "What needs to be done?"

Yan Wao Shen: Shiba Encampment
"We must make a circuit around your encampment. By foot. Once this is done I will be more than prepared to finish the task, if you would willingly provide one of your horses." The Necromancer only pauses long enough to explain once they reach what seems to it a good distance outside of camp though still within sight. "It will give us time to speak. Without prying eyes and ears." It then begins to walk, slowly. "What do you know of the Soul King?"Last edited by Razade; 2017-01-27 at 09:23 PM.

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
"I am not sure.' Qiu said.
"I have forged my own sword for seven days and nights, while fending off the ghosts of the people I have murdered.' he paused, and opened his shirt, revealing a muscled chest, with scars- but the more intresting ones, were seven dot like scars on the spot of his heart.
"From the iron which is stuck in my heart.'Thanks for the OOTSkage of OOTS art, Lord Raziere.

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
Kane Shiba brings a horse with him, an older mare, past its days in combat, but still hearty enough as a beast of burden and work. As he leaves, he nods to an attache. "Tell the men that 15 should do it. One hundred back."
Kane leads the horse to follow the Necromancer. "The Soul King gave the noble clans much of their dominion. He ordered us to keep balance between the worlds. Then, he departed without an order more, not seen since."

"How is that balance going? While you fight here, is the Mortal World safe?" Yan Wao Shen continues to walk slowly, each step slow and deliberate. "If I told you the Soul King had done this before. That the evidence of these events are buried to time. That it merely does these things to learn. To grow. Knowing you and others will fail. You would dismiss me, yes?"

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
"Not so. Your disunity is chaos. Were the Noble Houses to put aside their squabbles a new era of order could be established in the Mortal World. Hollows may be a threat even then but not nearly as large as they are now. The hollows within this realm would all but be eradicated. Even the ones in my swamp, I suspect." Only a hint of a chuckle escapes its mask. "But you are correct, knowledge for its own sake would be foolishness if one could simply learn on its own. The Soul King is not a thing with such an ability. It only knows what it knows through this cycle of life, death and rebirth. It is the Lynch Pin of our worlds and thus cannot move like we can move. It simply creates vessels that can learn and when it is time to cull these herds...they're culled. The Soul King grows more powerful, it learns more and the next cycle is better." The Necromancer tilts its head to regard the noble. "If we could keep it alseep. The culling would be delayed. Your mandate would not be revoked. You and your line would live. I have come to assist you, my tasks however have nearly come to an end. My continued aid will come with a cost." The Necromancer finally comes to a stop, they pair have reached the end of their circuit. "I have a spell that would lull the Soul King to a deeper sleep."

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
There is a woman on the other side of river, sitting on a bank and nursing her child. She gives a puzzled look to Ezekiel. "That was risky of you, young man", she says after he makes it across."that bridge has seen better days. You should've used the new one upstream."

[Afterlife; Kuchiki manor]
Lord Kuchiki observes the scars. His face does not show it, but he is rather puzzled by this phenomenom. "Very well", he says after a moment's ponderance. "You have seven days and seven nights. I will arrange for a forge and tools and stay by your side for whatever needs to be done. Let us get started.""It's the fate of all things under the sky,

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
"Very well.' But be prepared for pain, fear and agony- the real fire which forge the true warrior.' Qiu said. "I'll need a hammer, and an anvil."
When they gotten to an eerily silent blacksmith workshop. Qiu looked around, and took one of the blades, thrown around.
"We will have to start by stabbing your heart.' he said in matter a fact-tone.
"Are you prepared? I'll be honest- I don't know if that really necessarily- there might be a different way. But this is MY way. I don't know any other.'... consider your choice well- I will try not to kill you- but I might kill you... hearts are very gentle, and usually harming them leading to death- I won't continue, without you being sure, you have the will to take this path.'Thanks for the OOTSkage of OOTS art, Lord Raziere.

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
Lord Kuchiki looks at Qui Tao with an unreadable face. Then, he slowly takes off his armor and his shirt, leaving the latter hanging around his waist. "... this is easily the most absurd thing I have committed myself to", he says, spreading his arms. "however, it is because it is so absurd that I choose to believe you. I can perceive no deceit in your words or acts. Do your thing. Besides", the man's lips twitch in a small hint of a smile, "it simply wouldn't do for a man of my caliber to die of such triffle things as having a sword through my heart."

"A great many things. Unity of the balancers first and foremost." Yan Wao Shen then turns, in a single motion severing the attending horse's head from its shoulders. Its blood begins to pool as one would expect and yet it begins to glow. In an instant, the pool begins to drive out in lines far out of sight. "We will require more than a few to watch the tomb we create. Strong men and women of virtue. The rest when payment is promised."

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
"The first is a worthy goal, one I support without reservation. As to the price - I will agree to nothing until I know the cost - but I suspect you knew that already."
Kane Shiba eyes the corpse with something akin to sadness. "We will go as far as we can together - and no further."
The Shiba's gaze is drawn across the wastes to the direction of the Kuchiki fortifications. "Men of virtue, eh? He'll love that..."

"Very well.' Qiu smiled a grim smile.
"If you'l manage to deal with it as a true man, I'll willingly and gladly swear loyalty to you, Lord Kuchiki,'
Qiu has chosen the weakest blade. and slashed toward Kuchiki's chest- flat hit, but deep enough to scratch his heart. And strong enough... to break it's edge leaving it at Kuchiki's heart.Thanks for the OOTSkage of OOTS art, Lord Raziere.

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
Lord Kuchiki stumbles, trying hard to keep his pain from showing on his face. Spiritual power flows out of the wound and a light blue glow blazes on his skin, all the items in the room trembling as if an earthquake had suddenly hit. Blood flows out of the wound at distressing speed, staining Lord Kuchiki's chest and pants, but then he drives his own fingers deep into the wound, squeezes the vein shut and stands straight. "... well... is that... it?", he asks, his face emotionless, but his eyes frozen in pain.

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
Spirit World- The Blacksmith Workshop
Qiu Tao nodded with respect and statisfaction.
"You are strong. But this is only the beginning." He paused. "You know what the difference between a true sword to a cheap piece of metal?" He has tossed away the broken blade like the junk it was.
"A true sword is forged by your spirit. First.. Endure pain of death- this is just fair- one who wish to give the gift of pain and death to others, should experience it first on himself."
The pain was even worse, than a mere physical pain- it reminded Kuchiki any pain emotional or physical he has endured during his life and after life ever.
'Now... Give he the blade from your heart- so I could start forging it into sword, fed with your pain." Qiu said it in almost ceromonical way.
To overcome the pain and pull the blade from his heart might take a while- normal human or ghost would probably have died trying.
Qiu himself lost consiounse from the pain seven times before he managed to pull it out, and it took him a day and night.
Qiu waited for Kuchiki with patience.Thanks for the OOTSkage of OOTS art, Lord Raziere.

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
[Afterlife; Kuchiki Manor]
Lord Kuchiki listens silently. Or... maybe it just takes all his focus to keep himself from bleeding to death.
His mind is drifting... he remembers a time when he was but four, and his father took him to Earth. He was watching a group of young stoats play... when a great bird with a grey overcoat and a white belly swooped down, killing one of the stoats and driving the rest away.
He felt so sorry then for the stoat kit.
With effort, Lord Kuchiki's fingers pinch around the shard of a blade inside his heart. He pulls it out, causing more blood to spill on the floor, then his other hand takes up the first's place as he uses it to squueze the wound shut, his first hand offering the shard of metal to Qiu Tao.
"This is... what you wanted... right?", he asks, pale and shaking.

[Earth; along the Tiber river]

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
"A dying man will not drink even when offered water from one he perceives as his enemy." Yan Wao Shen steps out of the glowing web, motioning for the Balancer Lord to follow suit. "What cost is so great that your children's children will know peace must be weighed against the price asked? I am offering you a drink of water Lord Shiba, you are dying of thirst even if your throat is not parched."
Once the lord steps out of the web the ground begins to pitch and heave, sending tremors throughout the area as the ground itself shifts and forms a tiered series of walls around the Shiba encampment as spindle towers burst around the circuit. Arcane energy swirls around the Necromancer, its baleful eyes glowing all the brighter within the Lion's skull as it chants wildly in tongues until the spell ends, a vast fortification encompassing the already well built Shiba encampment. "You will see no cost in your lifetime if we are successful. Your Children's Children will pay for the peace you have gifted them. The seal will need guarded, from those who come after will need to be selected. A lifetime of servitude at the tomb we will build for a God that cannot care. It is a small cost. As is my price. I ask only for a favor, yet to be named, when all of this is said and done. From each of the Noble Houses."

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
"I will not, and cannot agree to these terms for the other noble houses." Kane Shiba does not make his decision quickly. He stares for a long time at the camp. He stares longer at one particular tent, which is next to his own. Yan Wao Shen could see a woman, fair but obviously strong, emerge at one point, question a guard, and then, apparently satisfied with the answer, return to her abode. "This bargain must never cause the end of my lineage. You cannot require an only heir to fulfill these terms, at least not until they have sired a successor." Kane Shiba turns back to the sorcerer, his face and words like the steel of his sword. "If such a corollary is agreeable, then you have the bond of the Shiba." Kane extends his hand, the other with a small dagger. He slashes it across his palm and extends the dagger, hilt first, to Yan Wao Shen.

Re: Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum [IC]
"Why would I wish to end your line when I am doing everything to save it? It is no longer in my hands, you have been told the curves and motions of Fate. It is now on you to guide that ship. If you fight the Kuchiki you will fail and none of your line will survive. None of your followers, none of your flock, nothing you hold dear will come out unscathed." The Necromancer glances at the offered dagger but merely takes the Lord's hand, his other moving to gently try and lower the dagger back to the Lord's hips. "It would be unwise for your lineage, Lord Shiba, to mix blood with one such as I. I will trust in our concordat. Let us continue to fortify your new home. A castle right on the boarder should irk your present rival yes?"
