Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
Janan acted on instinct. His arm draped in a orange energy. Thrusting his arm forward, the energy pulsed outward, the air around the pulse being pushed outward, before collapsing back in woth a loud clap as the energy passed. The blast connects wotht the mans sternum, mid swing.

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
Just a sec. The king called. I've almost got all the buckles and straps hooked up. After a minute of awkward silence, Jonathan emerged. He was wearing the maroons and golds of the royal family. He had on a tunic, hose, and a magnificent red cape with gold and black trim.
Ovelia. It's so nice to see you. What have you been up to these past couple days? Would you like to come in and chat? We've got a little while before the old fart Wiledon sends for me. Wiledon, the master of etiquette, was known for being push with everybody - even royalty.Many thanks to Ceika for the wonderful avatar.

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
Janan was panting heavily. Fury slowly opened his little eyes, seeing the cleaver laying next to him instead of in him. Patience turned his head at Janan tilting it slightly. What was that? I- I don't know.... He slumps to his knees, his legs no longer wanting to hold himself. It just.... happened.
Janan just stared at the man's unconscious body for a minute. His breathing eventually slowed and the feeling returned to his legs. His hand reached to the cleaver, shaking. His hand grabs the handle but quickly pulls away. C'mon... lets look for anything of value. He... he won't be needing it anymore. Anything to delay. To put it off till later. Just... just not ready yet.

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
Without saying a word, Theo tossed the wooden ball at weakened Murkrow. Whether it would work or not wasn't really the point. If the symbol magic came through, then all the better. If not, then he still upheld his part of the deal.

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
The apartment is relatively plain without much in it. You quickly found some obvious belongings strewn about the room and were about finished searching when you felt an odd lump in his mattress. After some jostling, you manage to get a wooden box to come out of the bed. It was locked, but it seemed like the key would be small and silver.
SpoilerLoot from the room (and the cleaver)
Cleaver: lv 5, melee range.
75 Shekels
2 Enriched Waters
Oran Berry
The Box

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
Your ball successfully captured the Murkrow. As soon as the assistant saw the magic fade, his mind broke into gleeful thoughts. You understood the ploy from his mind in its entirety. The deal the two of you had made stipulated that you could only have the candlesticks if you drove off the Shadow. But you didn't drive him off; you captured him. Thus, he was in no way obligated by his contract with you to give you the candlesticks.

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
Janan stores the loot in his satchel. He can open the box later, key or no key. Patience had watched Janan pacing the room during his search, his aura becoming a deep, murky orange. After finding the box, Janan sighs. He walks back over to the man and the cleaver.
Fury had taken a spot on the man's stomach, staring unblinkingly at the man. Get up Fury. I have to do.... something. The little dragon looked up at him, wisp of flame escaping his lips before moving, never breaking eye contact with Janan.
Are you sure Janan? Is this absolutely necessary. Yes! No! I don' know.... Janan closes and opens his fist, as he fights with himself. Survive or stick to your old principles. I have too Patience. I'm different now. The old me.... he's dead. He died a long time ago, and I just refused to let him go.
Janan hefted the cleaver. Patience wordlessly moved the man's body so Janan had a clear shot at the neck. He hefted the cleaver high, his palms sweaty and his cheeks puffy. With a feral yell he slams the cleaver into the man's tender flesh, tearing through it like butter. Blood spurted all over the floor, the nearby wall, and the three as they stood over the man.
The cleaver clatters to the floor and Janan on his knees a moment after. Blood slowly dripped off his chin and his fingers. Fury laps up the blood dripping off his own face as if it was normal, while Patience went over to the bed, wiping himself off with the blanket there. Bringing the blanket over to Janan. C'mon Janan. We should get moving. offering the blanket.
Janan just shook his head. He patted the man down quickly to see if there was anything on his person he could use. After that, he goes into the dresser or closet to find something to cover himself up. Once he found a suitable piece of clothing, he carefully drapes it over him, covering his blood soaked clothes. Alright. Lets get going.
Returning both mon, he heads down stairs. He stops for a moment, looking at the lower floor with glazed eyes, not really taking in anything. Something warm touched his hand. Looking down, he sees a fresh drop of blood. Looking up, another drop falls into his now open palm. He waited just long enough for one more drop, before heading out the door, back towards the Hand's hideout.Awesome Avvy by Sizlord!

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
A small blush crossed Ovelia's face at Jonathan's words. She quickly bowed, both to show respect and to try and hide the blush. "You are the King, your majesty. If you wish to speak I shall speak, when you wish to be escorted I shall follow." She said. Her mind raced as her heart's beating speed up at the thought of getting to just chat and spend time with Jonathan.

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
You manage to avoid attention on your trip back to the hand by sticking to the shadows and less savory parts of town. The blood has dried completely by the time you arrive at your destination, and its crusty residue is a dark maroon. Burr doesn't challenge your entry today, and a rope was quickly thrown down for you to climb up. The rope boy looks at you in surprise when he sees you.
You look horrible. he gasped. He quickly shuttled you down the rope and took you to Mar. She looked down at you with arched eyebrows.
Even if you were clean, your face tells me that you succeeded. Was this your first time taking a life?Many thanks to Ceika for the wonderful avatar.

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
Jonathan sits in a comfortable armchair and brushes his dark bangs out his face. Call me Jonathan please. I hate it when people call me king if I'm not doing something official. And while I expect obidience, you aren't my slave. If you have something to say then spit it out.
Anyways, where have you been? Yesterday and today they gave me one of the squires. Is it some secret ranger buisness that you can't tell me about? He says with a wink. I know Halt has his little projects. It's alright if he's told you not to tell me. I trust my spymaster to let me know when its truly important.Many thanks to Ceika for the wonderful avatar.

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
It will get better. A person's first kill is always a little ... shocking. You'll get used to it. It's part of the business. Anything in the apartment or on his body is yours to keep. I certainly don't want it.
Mar reaches under a table and tosses you a bag of coins. Your commission for the job. It's a little on the high end for this kind of work, but we always pay more for a first job.
Now. We've got one of the tattoo artists coming in this afternoon to give you you mark. You can either hang around here for a couple hours or head somewhere else until its time. Any questions?

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
"Of course your maje---err Jonathan." Ovelia says fidgeting. She didn't feel worthy to be able to speak to the King with just his name. "I wouldn't keep anything from you. The Rangers are here to serve you. There were some attacks on a village by a monster, they sent me to deal with the monster. It was a strange shapeshifting creature that was all black and feral." Ovelia explains, "It was believed to possibly be a ditto, but they aren't sure why it was black. I brought the remains back so we could find out why and prevent anything like that from happening again."
Ovelia pauses for a moment, "Sir...I'm worried about this ball." She says. She knew it wasn't her place, but he'd given her permission to speak. "From what I've read of the Empire this seems like the perfect time for them to try something. I'll have Sir Hector out to sense auras, but please be extra careful of foods you eat or drink or people that come near you. I'll do my best to keep you safe, but...yeah, I just wanted to add that."

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
I don't know the exact reasons; the order came from the higher ups. He was part of a different cell of the hand. Somebody found out that he was a rat and reported to those who needed to know. The order came to me, and I delegated the task to you. Let it be a lesson to all to never go rouge on the hand. Her eyes glinted, hard as stone. The room was quiet as they looked at her.
No worries Mar. We'll stick with you forever. One of the men said.

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
The King listened to you carefully, not disregarding your words or making light of them. After you finished, he nodded. It's true that the Achaemian Empire has been expanding rather quickly. As far as I know however, this is just one of the routine envoys that countries send to each other. I'll be careful.
As he spoke, his eyes kept returning to your sword belt. Finally, he asked you about it. I've always meant to ask you something. Rangers don't usually learn swordplay do they? Where did you learn to fight at?Many thanks to Ceika for the wonderful avatar.

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
Janan bowed, before excusing himself to the closet. He clears a bit of room on the floor, and places the box he found down. Taking the still bloody cleaver, he carefully lines up the the padlock. He delivers a deft blow to the padlock, in hopes of chopping it off without harming the box.

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
Though you body didn't feel like following your instructions, you were still using a cleaver made for chopping through bone. The lock snapped off leaving a small scratch on the box.

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
The inside of the box was relatively plain. The contents were anything but boring to you however. A padded sack with 1,000 Shekels in it was the first thing you saw. Underneath were five pieces of parchment. However, the last object was by far the most captivating for you: a small golden idol of Giratina almost identical the one that you had showed Abdul all those years ago.

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
Janan stared at the idol for a minute, horrified. His hands trembled and the idol clattered to the floor. What have I done!? He had killed a brother. A fellow chosen of Giratina. That couldn't be. This far into Carthak, no way. He wielded a cleaver. A weapon meant for cutting threw meat like a barbarian. He couldn't be of the chosen.
He shoved the idol back into the box and frantically looked over the papers. Anything to distract him right now.Awesome Avvy by Sizlord!

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
You quickly discerned that the papers were a log of Sassnid slaves that the man, whose name was Gehndar, had freed and sent to a woman in Kush named Kasha. There were some middlemen, but Gehndar had been the one to sneak them out of their deprived situations in Karfmietta and set them on the road to freedom. He had gotten over two hundred slaves out of their fetters, though he had slowed down in recent months while making notes about almost being caught and being followed.
Thankfully, nobody in the bar seemed to hear your words. Nobody came to bother you.Many thanks to Ceika for the wonderful avatar.

Theo walks over and picks up the ball. While the symbols still glowed he whispered, "Shadow, nice to make your acquaintance." The symbols faded down to dark markings around the ball and Theo placed it in a pocket. He then began looking around for his money and the candlesticks, leaving the assistant to bring up his own little triumph. Torch stayed out and floated along with Theo, often lighting darkened areas.

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
Janan stifled another cry, tears starting to stream from his eyes. Not only did he behead another chosen, but a man who helped his kin escape the tyranny of this cursed country he found himself stuck in.
Janan stayed in the closet over an hour, sobbing to himself. His head finally started to clear, his cheeks puffy and stained with a mix of tears and blood of his kin. Looking over the papers once again, he found a shimmer of hope. Kasha. Someone sympathetic to his plight. Or at least, likely.Awesome Avvy by Sizlord!

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
Getting to the stash of objects was easy now that there was no angry bird to harass you and make you fall off the beams and ladders. The assistant followed at a slightly slower pace. When you reached the top, he watched to see if you would attempt to pick up the candlesticks.
The nest itself was full of odd baubles, valuable tablewear, some money - including yours - and a variety of other random objects that made the nest look like some kind of bazaar booth from Carthak.Many thanks to Ceika for the wonderful avatar.

Re: Exploring Aatos (IC)
The backs of one of the sheets illustrated his the route most of his escapees took and the people they went through. Kasha ran an inn in Mfrin, and the routes to get to her depended heavily on a network of helpful Barrir tribesmen who were interested in stopping the horrendous treatment of the Sassnid people.
