[quote=Dantrag]Sel had been about to tell Celia something, before Niran walked back in.

"I'm going back to Shakur's to ask Heddvild baout this ring." he announced, waiting for someone to comment.[/quote]

Shakur finally came fully aware of everything around him. "Uh, thank you V'anul, that might have been an awkward situation". Shakur stood, and after hearing Sel, he spoke "The ring? You mean the Calm One ring? That is a gift I got from the Lich, he said I could use it to stop fools in their tracks. Guess it would work for werewolves too".

"Like a paralyzation enchantment?" he asked Shakur.

Niran was listening to the conversation between Shakur and Sel, a few of those rings would be a nice addition to his defense.

"Hey Celia watch this."Niran took his sisters knife and threw it in the air, as it spun he caught it and threw it right beside Celia's face, it flew past and hit the wall, sticking into it.

Niran walked over and got it, laughing as he did so.


(OOC: Your avatar changes constantly, like my signature.)

"Hey! You want a bashing?" She shook her hammer at him, and then faced Shakur, patting him on the arm. "You silly Redguard! I guess I didn't have to worry about you, then." She smiled shyly.

Niran said jokingly

"Sure, just not right now."

He put his sisters dagger in his belt.

Celia stuck out her tongue. "I may just take you up on that offer."

Niran smiled but didn't respond.

ooc: 0.0 Is that supposed to bea hidden message or am I misinterpreting it...?

ooc: what? who or what is 0.0????

its wide open eyes. like

Sel laughed at Celia's statement. "I'd like to see him get that beating as much as you, but I have to go...I'm going to visit my old hut on the outskirts of Ald'ruhn

Niran didn't really have anywhere to go, his home was in Cyrodiil and his family was all murdered.

He'd just go wherever Celia goes

Hope she doesn't mind Niran thought

"Well, I'll just go get my sword from Shakur's house and I'll be set."

Celia glanced at Sel curiously. "Do you want to go alone? I'll understand if you want to... Where do you want to meet us at? Here, in front of the Mages Guild, or something?"

"It would actually be nice if someone came...But whatever." he answered.

Celia grinned. "Is that an invitation? I'll go with you if you do not mind..." She paused and waved to the Khajiit and Fenris's sister. "Bye miss Nord, bye mister Khajiit!"

She took Sel's arm, giggling. "So, is it far?"

Jonacin left Arco with the people at the Temple. He could do nothing more for him. He decided to wander htrough the town again, to see if anything had changed since he had been here last. As he walked down the bank of the Odai, he saw an Altmer woman who looked suspiciously like Celia. Looking closer, he realised it was Celia.

Niran came back after getting his sword and saw Sel and Celia leaving , now where was he supposed to go. He wouldn't follow Sel, not for a whole journey would he put up with him.

He'd meet them in Ald'Ruhn, or maybe he could just go back to Cyrodiil, what was he doing here?

Jonacin was fairly sure it was Celia, so he called out "Celia! Is that you? It's me, Jonacin!"

OOC: I would like to add that i have now passed Minque in post counts I'm the Number 1 poster

Celia blinked and then, after a moment, gasped as she glanced in the direction the shout had come from. "Jona?" She let go of Sel's arm, and quickly walked towards the Redguard, laughing. "Oh, silly Jonacin, it is you!"

She then sped up and gave Jonacin a big hug. "Tee hee. How are you doing, mister Redguard?"

Jonacin laughed as Celia hugged him. "I'm doing fine, miss Altmer. We rescued Arco from some Nords who had captured him, but he's in bad shape. He's up at the Temple, along with Serene, Mazuk and little Triel. How are you?"

Sel greeted Jonacin with a nod.

"Tell Arco I'll visit him as soon as I get back...I'm going to visit some people."

Some peoples' graves that is. Sel thought sadly. He missed his mother and his sister even more.

"Will do Sel" said Jonacin

OOC: by the way Dantrag, Minque wants the evil mage to kidnap Serene because she wont be here much for a while

OOC: soon to be done :evil13:

Mage

Arcyakt looked through his small mirror in his makeshift quarters in a dwemer ruin. He saw that his enemies had all found their way to Balmora...

Osano, he reached out with his thoughts. Your old companions are near you - follow them, but do not harm them or make your presence known.

Arcyakt changed the image in the mirror to Osano and added, I will be there shortly.

Sel

"Thanks." Sel said to Jonacin.

He turned to Celia. "Are you still coming, or do you want to see the others?"

OOC: oh, and nobody confront Osano, as I don't want to control shogun's character overmuch or get him into a battle. So you can hear footsteps or something following you, but don't figure out that it's him...

Niran stepped towards Sel, his mind made up

"Do you mind if I follow?"

Sel shrugged. "Your choice. May be a bit boring though - an old, run-down hut and two graves."

Niran asked:

"Who's grave would that be?" trying not to sound rude

"My sister's and my mother's." he answered sadly.

Mazuk noticed that everyone had went there ways here in Balmora(sp?) and decided that he would head over to the Eight Plates for a bit to eat.

(OOC: Wow, Niran's family is dead as well. Who else wants their family dead.)

"Oh," was all he said

Celia hugged Sel tightly. "Oh, poor silly Dunmer... I'm sure they are in a better place."

Sitll embracing Sel, she turned her head towards Jonacin. She answered his question, smiling shyly, "I'm not infected anymore!" She frowned, scolding. "And it's 'Celia' or 'miss Celia', you silly Redguard!"

OOC: If you read my story, Jonacin's family died too

IC: "I'm sorry for your loss Sel. How did they die?" He turned to Celia. "Ok then miss Celia. Who cured you of lycanthropy?"

Sel appreciated the support from Celia.

He answered Jonacin. "I think I'll save the story for a time when we are all around a fire - especially because Serene will want to hear it with her own ears."

"Are you coming or not, Celia?" Sel asked, ready to get on the road.

Niran was prepared to follow Sel, as long as he didn't have to put up with the younger man's attitude.


(OOC: Except Niran's real family didn't die, only his adopted family did. He doesn't even know he was adopted so that'll make for some good Role Playing later on.)

Mazuk walked into the Eight Plates and found a table. He ordered a drink and then some food.

While waiting for his food he though about his family and this being the first time around others since his mothers death years ago.

OOC: By the way I am not that young in the RP, but not old either.

"Eh?" Celia smiled at Sel, still hugging. "Well, allright, since you asked." She paused. "Er, are we walking or using the Mages Guild or something?"

"Sel, would you mind if me and Serene tagged along with you to Ald' Ruhn? I have some people i want to visit nearby, and she has some friends in town she wants to visit"

Niran agreed with Celia, traveling quickly would be better.


"Good idea." he said

"You forget," Sel began. "That there is a quite a bounty on my head. Nine months isn't enough to make the Cammona Tong forget anything."

"We walk."

"Be sure to bring an extra pair of legs, just in case our's die."

(OOC: G'night lonewolf)

"Ok, i think me and Serene will make our own way out."

Celia nodded, blushing. "Oh, I'm sorry. I forget... My heels will be sort of a problem, but I can take walking bare-foot for awhile."

She grinned. "So, where is Ald-Ald-bluh, how you do pronounce it, Al-ruhn?"

"Glad to see you're coming." Sel said to Celia with a smile. "It's quite a bit north, but an easy walk because there are paths."

Sel made his way out of Balmora and headed towards Ald'ruhn.

Niran joked with Celia as they walked

"If you get tired I'll just carry you." he said with a mischievous smile.

Mazuk gets his food and starts to eat. While eating he wonders where everyone else went off to.

Hope they didn't leave me here.

OOC: to save time....

After a rather uneventful five-hour walk, Sel arrived at his old home. He walked inside, holding flowers he had picked on the way. He dusted off cobwebs as he did. Everything was as he left it - ransacked - but for the rotting furniture, bug-eaten fabrics and broken windows. Sel walked through and his mind was flooded with memories.

"This was our house." he said quietly.

Niran looked around, the house was in poor condition.

"If you need help fixing it up then I could help."

"No, I could never live here again - too many memories." he said as he began walking back outside.

He stopped Celia and Niran.

"Could I be alone for awhile?" he asked as they got near to the graves.

"Sure," Niran said "Celia come over here" Niran led her a ways away.

(Good night everyone.)

Sel knelt in front of the two graves, and put flowers on each of them.

"Why did you die to let me live mother?" he whispered. "I am not half the person you were."

He looked at his sister's grave. "If I had taken that farmhand job like you said, I would have been home to protect you. I'm sorry."

He stood up and wiped the tears from his face before walking back to where Celia and Niran were standing.

OOC: it works with mine pretty well...

(OOC: Sorry, internet going nuts)

Celia walked next to Niran as they leave the Dunmer alone. "He looks so sad... and the house." She whispered sadly, "I wonder what happened..."

She dried her tears. "I hope he will feel better...And my sore feet, too!" She rubbed her feet, which were bare, because she had taken off her heels during the walk.

(OOC: M'kay!)
