Oddity In the Park

Postby Chaude on September 23rd, 2012, 2:12 am


"Only Mentor and foster mother to practice with," Chaude replied as Crypt took a sip from his waterskin.

Waiting in response, Chaude felt hungry. He still hadn't had any luck finding a job to produce more of this oddity called money. The Knights had little interest in a nocturnal creature, and most fear a Zith. As Crypt walked towards the Oak tree, he pulled one of the Jerky out, ripping through it with little effort.

"Own twin sister claimed to kill me. I betrayed her trust. Thought that...No want to talk about that now. Mentor is Human slave. Unsure where he is from," unsure of his feelings just now, he became quiet momentarily.

"Interested in Reimancy, yes, that I can show. Small show. Don't want to upset guards."

Pulling one of his wings out a little for his arm to be revealed, Chaude concentrates. Searching, Chaude recalls the feeling he had when his Mentor initiated the ritual that invaded his body. Feeling the pulsation coursing through his veins, a liquid started to appear out of the pores on Chaude's open palm. It's dusk orange blob shape lays still.

"Watch," Chaude comments as he motions his hand.

Feeling for the pulsations, he channeled the outer layer exposed to the nighttime air to expand. Forming into the shape of a short blade, Chaude walks over to the oak tree and makes a small slash mark near the base of the tree.

"Reimancy can be hard or soft."

Plainly showing the magically made blade, he channeled it's pulses and disintegrated its hardened form that was exposed to the air. Retreating the mold back into his palm, it became liquid again. As if holding a wine glass, he tilts his hand, letting one portion of the liquid to runoff as any liquid would. A few splatters could be heard, but only faint.

"Know few Reimancy spells, but sword is good."

“Amazing...”

Crypt whispered as he watched Chaude manipulate the strange fluid with unnatural grace.

“I see why Reimancy can be attractive for many now. It seems very useful.”

Crypt took another sip from his waterskin. The night was certainly interesting, what with meeting a Zith (taught by a human, no less!) and observing a small example of Reimancy.

“If you don't mind me asking, where are you living now? The Traveler's Row, perhaps? Have you found any job or employment? The rent may be cheap, but we've all got to have some coin for food and drink.

A moment or two of silence filled the nighttime air after Chaude's reply, broken only by the soft chirping of birds and somewhat startling hoot of the owls. Crypt took out a flute from his belt, and he was about to lift it to his mouth before he looked to Chaude.

“You wouldn't mind if I played the flute here, I hope? I'm trying to get in some practice whenever I can, for I haven't much time. I know only this tune though, so it won't be much of a performance. I do hope you can enjoy it.” Without waiting for his reply, Crypt began his tune.

The strains of a melancholic tune flowed through the nighttime air, moving with a small breeze. Its notes were soft and gentle; though underlying the melody ran a hint of sadness, of things long lost to time. Some notes were uncertain though, showing that Crypt had only started days ago in the art of the flute.

"Useful, yes. Still need practice. Slow to materialize to heat of battle," Chaude admits as Crypt takes another swig from his waterskin.

Thinking about living like a Human and dependent on this money, Chaude was unsure how to make it.

"Traveler's Row. Guards told me to stay there. Mentor said to gain money while studying. How does one gain job to make money? All different from home."

Crypt had pulled out a musical instrument, asking to play for practice as he doesn't have much chance elsewhere. Curious, Chaude doesn't object and listens as Crypt plays a tune filled with bits of sadness and longing. The melody reminds him of the time his Mentor had tried teaching Chaude how to use one, only to fail out of frustration. Something about the song made Chaude question more about himself. Part of him doesn't want to think about it, while part of him does. The song soon ended in silence.

Amused, Chaude awaits for how to gain a job here.

“Thanks for listening.” Crypt placed his flute back into his belt, then turned back to Chaude, who was sitting there patiently, awaiting his answer.

“Your Mentor must be a wise man... I wish I could meet him.” Crypt mused. “You'll be able to find employment of some sort at the Employment Office; it's less than 5 minutes from the Main Gates. There's a kind lady with a stunning hairstyle named Trega who should be able to help you out. Don't worry about not finding a job. Syliras is a large city, there should be a suitable job just waiting for you. I could even lend you some money to tide you over for a few days. I think it's closed now though. How about this: Tomorrow I'll take you there. We'll meet at the entrance to Traveler's Row and I'll guide you to the Office. Is that fine with you?”

(OOC: Here's the link to the Employment Office. Just a short reminder in case: If you were to agree to accept my offer (Or you just go to the Employment Office the next day), you'll need to timestamp it at least 31st of Fall, 512 AV or further.)

"No worry, have enough money for now," Chaude gestures a decline to the offer.

On occasion, Chaude would leave the Traveler's Row in the middle of the night, going out into the wilderness to feast and drink. More out of instinctual habit than concerned for depletion of money reserves. Of course, getting the blood out of his clothing is a challenge.

"Take me to Trega, yes, on one condition," pepped with a mild squeak, Chaude accepts the invitation to this Employment Office, although..."Wish to spar in near future. Test strength."

Much rather to have requested it now, it was a torn decision that Chaude knew sparring here in a Human city would no doubt alert the guards. He has a mission to fulfill and getting killed by the guards for being a Zith was not bold.


(OOC: Offer accepted. 31st is fine with me. Feel free to have my PC follow yours to the Office so I'm not making an OT post in the Employment thread. You can expect Chaude to be groggy eyed and squinting to awaking at an odd time of the day that he normally sleeps. A bit irritable if he listens to a debate too. Let me know when to close this thread.)

“Alright then. Well, it's getting late for me; I think I'd better return to the Traveler's Row now. Thank you for the enlightening conversation.”

Crypt started to walk towards the exit of the Stone Garden before stopping and turning towards Chaude, giving him one last wave of the hand before continuing on his way.

(OOC: Alright, I think we can end here. Maybe you could do a final post about your thoughts? Or you could just end it here and submit this thread, we might be able to get a bit of XP - 1 flute-playing XP for me, 1 reimancy XP for you perhaps? Though it might not be applicable. We could also add lores about what our PCs learned in our conversation. Anyway, how are we going to do this continuation? Create a new thread and post our PCs' interaction there?)

Lores :
Good thread guys. Chaude I didn't feel that Intelligence should be awarded for that bit, but if you think I missed something PM me.

Crypt I gave you the point for the flute, but in the future try to add more to your description and add more detail. It could be something as simple as a few hollow notes and panted breaths or loud out of tune notes.

About your future thread I agree that a modded thread that mirrors the Office thread would be best.


The Sylir has spoken
If you have any questions or concerns regarding your grade, please send me a PM and we can figure it out. :)
