BobV
Anthanes sighed. I thought him smart enough to notice the arrow. He nocked back another one of his pitchblack arrows in case anyone of them should decide to pursue further hostilities. He fired the arrow at the ground in between the two combatants, clearly as a warning.
Konji
Konrad nodded, taking out his shield. "OK, come at me."
gamer10
Niran didn't rush, instead he circled around Konrad slowly, maybe the boy had forgotten about his dagger.

He grabbed it in a quick movement and threw it at Konrad, how would he move that shield fast enough to block it.
Megil Tel-Zeke
Megil istened to the tale, and observed the garession between konrad and Niran. He then saw the arrow fly into nirans arm. Immediatly he began looking for the souce. a second arrow. Megil saw him this time, a figure in a black cloak. He quietly stood up went around behind the yurts and began to sneak up the the mysterious figure. He heard the twang of the bow string as he turned the corner, and then he saw he was behind the figure, he remained quiet as he closed in on the attcker.
BobV
Anthanes sighed silently. Fools...They won't heed my warnings...I'll let things take their way, but I'm not going to let them kill eachother just yet...
Konji
Konrad sidestepped quickly, his shield only needing to be brough up slighlt yto make the arrow bounce into the shadows. "Too, slow. Have at ye." he jeered as he he ran forwards, slicing quickly at the stomach of Niran.
gamer10
Niran who was using the wrong arm to handle his sword was slow in his reaction, just barely bringing it down in time to block Konrad's blow.

He then pushed the sword away ,using his own sword, as best he could and thrusted at Konrad.
BobV
Hearing rustling, Anthanes turned around, looking at Megil. He spoke in a voice that did not in the slightest resemble Anthanes' actual voice. "You can stay your weapons, Megil. I only mean to prevent them from killing eachother..."
Megil Tel-Zeke
Megil just examined the figure, trying to figure out who he was. He had heard the sound of armour when the man turned, so Megil knew this man could defend himself. The man's voice sounded somewhat strained as if he were trying to hide his true voice. This man also knew his name, which was a surprise to Megil. He looked at the man and pointed to the duel,

"Your arrows are pitchblack, and you changed your voice as if trying to hide who you are. You say you mean no harm yet you shot Niran in the arm. Tell me stranger why you are here and why are you intervening in a duel?"

with that Megil leaned against a nearby post and continued to watch the stranger
Konji
Konrad blocked easily with his shield, then threw his shield at Niran's head while grasping his dagger in its sheath concealed by his boot. Drawing it he attacked Niran only split seconds after he had been attacked bya shield. Kaonrad stabbed at the man's right leg, while attempting again to slash his stomach with his longsword.
gamer10
Niran pulled his leg up to avoid it getting injured, standing on one leg he brought his sword down again to block Konrad's blow.

However the shield had caused him to become a little disoriented, and he did not manage to block to blow to his stomach completely.
BobV
ooc: Will be edited should Gamer/Konrad's post conflict

"I am someone you know, but you do not know who, or do you?" , Anthanes said, still twisting his voice. "I shot Niran in the arm so that he could no longer use it, although it seems I have failed."
Megil Tel-Zeke
OOC: since mine and anthanes's conversation is nto linked to duel we will skipp you fighters tongue.gif.

IC:

"I may know, but the person whom I suspect you to be would have the feeling of Magicka around him. You have no Magicka I can detect. Everything seems to hint at who you are: you're deceitful by changing your voice, a coward for hiding while launching an attack, you wear heavy armor, and you tried to disable Niran. Your arrows are black a dark color to match an equally dark soul. Tell me Anthanes how long will you lurk in the shadows watching us?"

Megil was pretty sure this was anthanes, but wasn't positive. the absence of Magicka was the only proof he had that this could be someone other than Anthanes.
BobV
"Anthanes? I've never heard of him, though he sounds like a handsome fellow. There might be a lot more people that hide in the shadows, firing arrows from concealment, and taking an interest in your party."

[ooc: He's using medium armor now, bonemold to be exact]
Megil Tel-Zeke
OOC: right, well megil relly can't tell can he since it all hidden beneath a black robe anyways.

Megil couldn't help but let out a small laugh,

"Hmm not Anthanes then," he said half sarcastiaclly, "If you say so stranger"

Only Anthanes would say something like "Anthanes? I've never heard of him, though he sounds like a handsome fellow." So megil was now certain this man was in fact Anthanes, but either something had gone terribly wrong and he couldn't access his magicka, or perhaps he was using a spell of illusion to hide it from Megil, he wasn't certain which it was.

"There are far stranger things lurking the corners and shadows of this camp than men in dark garbs"

Megil sat down and leaned against the pole of a nearby yurt.

"I'm not leaving you just yet, not until those two finish their duel." Megil said to the 'Anthanes who claimed not to be Anthanes'
BobV
"I don't care if you think I am who you think I am or not. You'll find out in time."
Megil Tel-Zeke
"I'm sure I will"
BobV
"In any case, I could care less about what you kno---claim to know."
Megil Tel-Zeke
Megil continued to watch the man.

"I won't tell the others you know," he told the stranger, "They have no reason to know"

He had heard the tale Sel and Niran told him of the battle and Anthanes almost calling forth boesthiah (sp.), but Megil chose to give the battlemage a second chance. besides without his magic he was a handicapped warrior.

"Tell me Anthanes, why are you following us? Are you bent on defeating Arkyatc(sp.) now that he has personally humiliated you and so you follow us, yet will not show yourself for fear of how the others will react after the way you treated them?"

Megil was being sympathetic towards the battlemage, an approach he knew could anger the man, yet despite treading on thin ice he continued to probe this man trying to coax him into revealing his true identity.
BobV
"That might be the motives of this Anthanes fellow, whomever he is, yes." , Anthanes said carefully, but with the intention of Megil sensing the obvious - he was Anthanes.
Konji
Konrad's right shoulder swooped down as his attack was blocked but taking advantage of his opponents disorientation he spun round and attempted to lodge his knife in Niran's left wrist.
gamer10
Niran's hand obviously didn't stay still, so Konrad missed the wrist but cut at his palm.

Niran dropped his sword and fell to the ground clutching his stomach as the blood soaked his uniform.

(OOC: You won because of Anthanes tongue.gif )
Megil Tel-Zeke
"Can't say I blame you for hiding your identity, I hear there's quite some hatred towards you after you sent the fireball at serene".

Megil continued to watch anthanes, but ocassionally glanced to the duel going on in the background. He knew the group should not fight amongst iself, but he figured if he let this duel play out, Niran and konrad would come to an agreement of some sort. He watched as a spray of blood trailed after Konrads blade passed by Niran's stomach, he then watched Niran collapse.

"See they didn't kill each other," he said to Anthanes.

OOC: i'm assuming that it was included in the story sel and niran told him earlier
Konji
Konrad panted, looking at Niran. "Are you stopping yet? Stand up straight so I can heal you!" Konrad ordered, sheathing his sword.
gamer10
Niran didn't reply, apparently the gash Konrad's blade had made was very deep.

(OOC: How would Konrad heal him?)
minque
OOC: Didnīt read all the posts in between but you said you need a healer for Niran,,,so Iīll edit if itīs conflicting


IC:

Serene saw Niran fall clutching his stomach.....it looked serious so she rushed to hs side to investigate the wound. Now it was a deep wound but it did not seem as any vital organs v were severely hurt, such as his spleen or liver...Nevertheless blood was gushing out and Serene had to press the cut together with her bare hands

She pressed and simultaneously chanted slowly......healing-energy was formed and the wound closed slow but steady.....

After the wound was closed she gave Niran some white crystallinic powder to put under his tongue..

"For the pain and enhancement of his digestional system" she explained
gamer10
Niran coughed, nearly spitting out the powder, however he moved to a sitting position and thanked her.

Then he passed out.
Konji
Konrad sighed. "Well at least we got that over with." he said aloud, shaking his head.
MerGirl
(OOC: I'll pretend Celia was sleeping during the whole Telvanni battlething, m'kay?)

After Serene and Jonacin ran off, Celia was left behind in the Ashlanders' camp. Having no luck in finding Sel in any of the tents and Megil was still dozing when she last checked, she had decided to sleep for a few hours.

After several moments of rest, Celia goggily woke up. She thought she heard loud shuffling from outside, but was still sleepy to care. She rubbed her eyes, and decided to check on her patient. However, Megil was not in his tent...

Growing alarmed, she wandered the camp/tribe for the missing patient.
gamer10
(OOC: I'm relatively sure Sel and Megil and Niran are all in the Ashlanders camp as well, having returned from the battle. Anthanes, Konrad, and Serene are as well. Don't know about anyone else.)

Niran regained conciousness after a little while and looked around. He stood up, his wound was healed but he felt a little sick.

Niran saw Celia wandering about,

"What are you doing?" He asked.
BobV
Anthanes smirked a bit as he saw the end of the battle. Strangely, he hoped Megil wouldn't leave just yet. Despite himself he was rather happy to have a chance to talk with someone...
Megil Tel-Zeke
"You seem satisfied with the results of the duel," said Megil when he saw the smirk on Anthanes's face. His headache was almost entirely gone now, which was a great relief.
BobV
"Hm-m. Konrad fights well, for his age...I'm glad to see he survived."

Am I getting soft or is it just an effect of my magicka being gone?
gamer10
(OOC:Sure he fights well, when his opponent has an arrow in his arm mad.gif Minor detail! He had to use the wrong arm! )

Niran heard talking, and wandered over to the source of it, he saw a cloaked figure and he asked Megil.

"Who is this?"
BobV
OOC: Minor detail, as Anthanes would put it.

Anthanes replied to Niran in the same twisted voice:

"Nobody important..."
gamer10
Niran looked directly at the cloacked figure,

"I'd apreciate if my question was answered, preferably by that person himself."
BobV
"If you question a person about one who is next to him do you expect the one next to him not to answer?" , Anthanes replied, still twisting his voice.

[OOC: It's mainly for keeping the rp going tongue.gif]
gamer10
"Well, now I do. Seeing as how you answered, but not properly. Now" Niran pasued "Who are you?"
BobV
Anthanes thought a moment before responding.

"I know who you are, but you know not who I am. Maybe you know me, maybe you don't know that you know me." He was still twisting his voice.
Megil Tel-Zeke
Megil looked up at Niran and was about to respond when Anthanes did. He saw that if he did not inervene, anthanes would reveal his identity in quarreling with Niran, so megil intervened,

"Niran, please excuse my friend here he is quite haughty. but to answer your question this here is Bragoldae,"directing his hand towards Anthanes, "whom I just happened to run into while trying to find the source of the arrows. He has told me that he is a outcast of sorts and wanders the wilderness passing through villages and living of the land never settling long in any one location."

Megil just hoped Anthanes would play along for now, despite being injured Megil knew thatif he knew it was anthanes that there would be a fight. So for now he hoped to extend that outcome.
BobV
Anthanes nodded. "Haughty...Sure." , he added sarcastically. Maybe I should work on making my identity less obvious to anyone with brain matter.
Dantrag
Sel noticed the gathering and walked over to join. He heard the voice, and though a bit strained, it sounded like someone he knew...

"Anthanes?" he asked, squinting his eyes, trying to see below the cowl of the cloak.

OOC: let's see what happens when Niran finds out blink.gif
BobV
Anthanes shaked his head adamantly. "Never heard of. Megil, I think I'll be going again my friend...Too much people here. Don't really like people, you know. Farewell, safe journies..." As he said this he began to swiftly but politely walk away.
Dantrag
"Anthanes." Sel said, now sure of it. "So," he said, turning to Megil. "Arcyakt give you any kind of clue? Because he usually does. It's part of his 'game'." he said, trying his best to mimick Arcyakt's voice when saying the word 'game'.
gamer10
Niran shook his head at Sel then he said to the newcomer,

"Ignore him." then he followed him
He held out his hand to shake.
Megil Tel-Zeke
When Megil heard Sel mention the name he mentally cringed. Not only would there be a bloodbath because Anthanes showed up, but Megil would be involved for hiding his identity. He turned to anthanes as he began to leave,

"So long friend, may your wanderings go trouble free till we meet again"

He then turned back t the group,

"Odd one that one was. Very peculiar fellow indeed"
BobV
"He seemed to think he knows me. Odd, really."

Anthanes reluctantly held out his hand, which was covered by a thick layer of black cloth.
gamer10
Niran grabbed hold of Anthanes hand and pulled him closer, throwing off the hood of the newcomer.

(OOC: Anthanes still looks the same right?)
Megil Tel-Zeke
"clue... let me think about it," Megil told Sel. Just then Niran threw Anthanes hood off, Megil quickly fogot about what Sel was saying and turned to look at them both, his eyes widening with shock. The last thing he wanted was another fight.

Don't panic, I cna pull it off if they try to put me into blame, play the fool on this one...
BobV
Anthanes cursed a bit as his face was revealed. "Always the distrustfull one are you not, Niran...I do not intend any of you harm..."

OOC: He has a few more scars than the last time you remember him but otherwise his face is the same. And dammit I wanted the others milling over who the mysterious shadowy hooded guy following them was.
