    Mesharum? So the faith of his still survives in this era, I would have thought it too demanding for humans of this age, do you still seek to bring order and all that?"
    "He could not hold anyone... now, and I try to help where I can." Iuric approaches the Dwarf "I seek some knowledge, could I impose upon you for a moment?"

    "Of course...please take a seat and tell me what you want. I was hear to partake in the Master's studies into the our creation. With him gone, I have a temporary break in such matters, must keep the mind active."

    An demon in Octopus form appears in the room and salutes Jeremy.

    "Thanks, I was in the middle of a war, saved me a few bruises pal"

    "I found this scroll and I was hoping you could decipher it and... the name of this city Dhurn Dharal, does it have any relation to the legendary sword Durandal?" Iuric asks slightly excitedly.

    He raises his eye brows first at the scroll, then even higher at the mention of the sword.

    "Well my boy, you are full of surprises.

    Firstly, this scroll is for a very powerful spell, were I still in the living in one plane business I be tempted to not give it back to you, but well, this isn't even my plane, so...anyway the scroll can shunt you forward in time...and back...though I'd be careful with the latter. It's what the master must have used to arrive at this era. It requires a Bard's blood however, in the backward travel case, enough to kill them.

    The sword...well I sense you are the types to go directly to where I say...are you sure you want to know?"

    "YES" Iuric's voice cracks and he coughs to clear his throat "Yes I would indeed like to know."

    <telepathy> what’s your name, I am Jeremy can you scout around and have a look see what’s lying around in here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,558 ✭✭✭✭Fourier


    "The sword you seek is powerful indeed, it was wielded in the past by a being known as the Clockwork King, the ruler of a vast territory on one of the continents of this world's internal world, I believe you say 'The World within the World' here, I have seen planes like this before...regardless the Clockwork King was defeated about 200 years ago, your records conflict on who exactly. The Nerosians claim it was this 'Ekbard' figure, the Charrans of your East say it was 'Phantom Tiger of the Yellow Night', a folk hero.

    Whoever did it, they left the sword within the Tindolin Valley, a dark place that few ever return from. One's strength means little there...it's one of the many areas of your plane I've avoided in my millennium here. Dhurn Dharal digs through the Gigadark out into the interior world where they have a small colony. The valley lies eighty miles West of the colony.

    If you go...my condolences."

    The Octopus salutes and begins to rummage around the room.

    The dwarf just laughs.

    "My sincerest thanks, scholar" Iuric says with barely contained glee. As he starts to leave he turns back "Oh, yes. Now that the master is dead what will happen to this place? Will it always be tethered to the city?"

    "Oh indeed not, only about twenty minutes before this miniplane the house exists in detaches from your plane and implodes, I'm just finishing my book before I planeshift out of here"

    The octopus waddles over to Jeremy and hands him a scroll.

    "My demons are polite on this plane, that's a nice little spell for a budding Wizard, you can have it" the Dwarf says with a smile on his face.

    Vrakrash whispers from the doorway.

    'Psst... Ask about the master's room in Gigadark...'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,862 ✭✭✭Evade


    Iuric turns "Demon!?" and then rethinks "No time for that now. We must go" Iuric says to Jeremy "My thanks again scholar" he says as he runs back to where he left Sarric.

    “Why thank you”
    I read the scroll carefully.

    Iuric pokes hi head back around the door "Do you know anything of the Master's room in the Gigadark?"

    “Oh! Comon Octavious, we must make haste.”

    It's a modified version of Tenser's Floating Disk, Coldhinz Floating Disk. It can take twice the weight, but dispels more easily at 50ft.

    Octavius leaps onto Jeremy's shoulder as the group reconvene. Shudders run through the hall as the plane begins to collapse.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,862 ✭✭✭Evade


    "We need to leave, this plane will loose its tether to Dhurn Dharal any minute now." Iuric explains to the group.

    Vrakrash sighs.

    'Very well. We'll find it regardless. Let us leave in haste!'

    Vrakrash runs back to Sarric and explains the situation.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    Karinth, can you zap us out of here?"

    "Ah of course, Sarric what would I do without you. So which four are coming with me?

    Sarric my friend will.

    Ser Boros will come of course.

    Well that leaves two more"

    Vrakrash looks to Sarric and Karinth.

    'Take the others. I will make it out myself.'

    He takes off running.

    Iuric picks up the Dwarven breastplate before they leave.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,558 ✭✭✭✭Fourier


    Karinth nods.

    "The dragon is either half mad or brave beyond words"

    He tosses Iuric the planeshifting gem.

    "All of you go, the young Wizard included, I will help the dragon, my blood rushes at the thought."


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,862 ✭✭✭Evade


    "Are you sure?"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    "I hope you know how to use that Iruic."

    Sarric grabs onto Iuric and begins clicking his heels subconsciously......
