Vornac after knowing that he couldn't do much for the man asked Wayn;
"Ehm, I think it might be better for me to come back later... When Aki comes can u please tell him to search me up at either the Southwall Corner Club or at the Balmora Hlaalu Council, I will return as fast as I can theres something I need to do..." and Vornac ran out, putting his hand down his pocket.

When he comes out he get supprised, seeing the Valpyres dead. And the note that to kill Aki, he sees Vaelon for a instant before he goes up to the Silt Strider. But he didn't know what Vaelon was going to do... He just stopped for a moment seeing Vealon leaving while reading the letter. He looks up thinking to himself...
"He cant do this alone, damn!" he runs off seeing the Silt Strider moving, he knows that Vaelon could need aid...

He goes into the Pawnbroker and buying some extra equipment, some healing and fatigue potions. And some sheets of paper and a Ink Pen. After that he goes out, confused of what to do he runs off against Vivec. His strength and will keeps him up and he runs with all he have to not let Vaelon leave alone to this new threat to Vvardenfell... 'We cant do anything wrong, its on the brink of war' he thinks when he runs through past Pelagiad. After a while he reaches Ebonheart and he runs off to the docks. Seeing the Silt Strider has already arrived on the other side at Vivec. Having time not on his side he cries out;
"I could need a boat here, I need to get to Vivec now!!" while waving his hand with his pocket full of gold...

A little fishing boats calls out;
"Here! I'll take u to Vivec..."

He comes over to the other side, having no idea of where to look he askes the nearest Ordinator...
"Have u seen a young Breton coming here Ordinator, I need to find him fast!" he talkes out while catching some breath...

"Ahh, I saw one of those scums not so long ago... He headed just past the corner. Didn't see anything else. What is he up to, is he a villan...!?" the Ordinator asks Vornac angry and curious...
"No no... Thanks I have nothing more to say, only that he is not a scum!" Vornac screams out while running around the corner.

Where he sees Vealon, runs up to him and takes him on the shoulder...
"Your not leaving without me are u... Its to dangerous to let u go alone on such a mission there young outlander" and gives him a smile...

Vealon smiles back saying "it took you long enough". Then he tells vornac of his plans to sneak into to underworks and mabey take over a house, and to find out as much of the strange silver people as they can, starting with what they call themselves. he then led Vornac to the Televanni canton and whent into the Lizard's head bar, and bought them two bottles of Matze as he asked him how he got here.

***Fuzzy Knights look at my post in the plan and disscusion thread, what should we, or I, do?***

"Well hope u are equipet and ready... I will leave the command to u, in this mission. Lets be careful, I dont want much of a war right now, we need more time to gather warrios. But lets take a peek anyway. I have some spells ready like Divine Intervention and more deadly attackes if we get in trouble..." and he pauses...

"And most important... Stay alive" he smiles and takes up his sword almost like he is showing it off. (The powerful Ebony Longsword is enchanted with Dire Weakness to Fire and Fire Damage...)

"Well... Let me hear how u are suppose to do this, its still quite some large amounts of water between us and the Island" he says and smile again... before he takes a look on your gear. He takes his sword back and start checking his equipment if theres anything they would need...

(OOC: Soulseeker I guess we can just say that u need still some time to plan this more carefull because my character would really try not to start a conflict this fast. So lets say that u are hidden in Vivec while planning while u are in St.Loise... And when u come back we can go on to the Island)

Davion and Channler arrive at Davions house on the east side of the odai river.

"Take a seat, i'll be back in a minute." Davion tells Channler, pointing at a chair.

Davion walks into the back room out of sight of Channler. After a few minutes of silence Davion lets out this painful yell, then there is another pause for two minutes.

Davion walks back into the main room, his own blood dripping off of the end of his Dai-Katana, and his ribs wraped in bandages, and takes a seat across from Channler.

Davions vision still blurry from what he just did in the back room made it hard to read Channlers facial expressions.

"Come with me upstairs, there is something i want to show you." Davion tells Channler and they both walk up the stairs.

Once upstairs Davion opens the door to the huge room and the room glows with enchanted items, rings, ammulets, armours and weapons.

"Take your pick, i have a range of armours, ranging from Daedric to even the armour the Nerevarine wore while fighting Dagoth Ur. Come back downstairs when you have made your selection of armours and weapons." Davion tells Channler as he nudges Channler to go in.

Davion walks back down stairs, takes out two glasses and opens a bottle of Nordic Mead, waiting for Channler.

Vornac leaves Vealon alone to make a possible plan, he says;
"Well... I'm going to seek up my Grandmaster here at the Hlaalu Caton. I will come by tonight and we can find out what do" Vornac says with his head half way out of the door. He turns back on Vealon;
"If I'm not back by atleast midnight, search for my in the Hlaalu Caton or Foreign Quarter" and he goes off...

Vornac is soon to become the new Grandmaster of Hlaalu. He walks off out of Telvanni, the sun is on its way down and the two moons start appearing. He comes into Hlaalu Council, its empty, atleast in the first hall. He goes off and to the stairs, in the end of the stairs he sees blood. He bows down, touching it with his finger...
"Its warm..." he says to himself.

He peeks around the corner seeing one of the Hlaalu Masters get stabbed in the chest by the Silver Skinned people - Valpyres. Vornac looks into the dying masters eyes. And goes into a rage, he holds it back. He takes up the Ebony Longsword. He sees the Valpyres goes around checking everyone is dead. Vornac bursts out from behinde and sets of a charge against the Valpyre. He cries out! He slashes with all his might and cuts it in two before running to the dying Master...
"Where are the rest of them...!?" he says to her while holding up here head, the dying Dark Elf... Points out at the Grandmasters room. Vornac leaves here a healing potion while sneaking off to the Grandmasters room where he sees four Valpyres searching throw his room. Vornac summons up a fireball in his hands... Before casting it into the room, a flash comes the Valpyres get thrown into the wall.

Vornac runs in, they are not dead. He goes for the nearest one, piercing its chest. He turns away slowly moving against the three wounded ones. They charge at the same time, but the second stands back while prepering a shot with the Crossbow. Vornac leaps onto the bed to protect the Grandmaster that is dying. He dodges the first attack and goes in for a strike, but the second one shoots a bolt into his leftside of his chest. He loses his balance and fall done prone. They both jump on him trying to stab their short swords into his throat...
"I will not... Die... For you creeps!" Vornac cries out and pushes them back. His sword goes up in flames, almost blinding for the eye. He burst into rage and slashed wildy after the two Valpyres. The third one sends a posion bolt into the dying Grandmasters throat. Vornac tumbles under the Valpyres slashed and he goes up grabbing the thrid Valpyres skull before sending his sword through its chest. He gets stabbed twice by the others and he falls on his knees. He turns around, the Valpyres goes in for a second attack. Vornac uses his strength to stand up, but just to get stabbed right left of his throat. He is dying...

The Valpyres goes up to Vornac looking him into the eyes... Vornac's eyes in a burst of anger. Suddenlty in a split second he raises up and slashed both the Valpyres in two with one slash. His enchated sword burnes their bodied until only some of their body parts are left... He falls back and lands leaning onto the bed before pasing out...

The Dark Elf Master comes just a minute late, he throws herself over Vornac, and start healing him. Vornac open his eyes, he speaks out...
"Find... Vealon... a Breton in the Telvanni... the caton... Lizards... Head... He most know... that... he is not... safe!" and he closes his eyes... Before screaming out;
"Move woman!"

The young Dark Elf smiles, now she knew that he was ok... She took off out of the Hlaalu and to Vealon, telling him;
"Your not safe, these Silver Skinned People attacked the Hlaalu Council... They killed all but me, Vornac came and fought of five of them but is to tired and wounded to come..."

Vealon thanks The younge dark elf for relaying Vornac's message, think "Darn that vornac having all the fun and not inviting me". He started to pack and was thinking werwe to run to, hould I flee to Ald'ruhn and seek shelter with his friend Minque? Or should he flee to the Morag tong hide-out? A moment after the Dark elf left he decided to flee to the Morag Tong which was closer and knew he could hide there. As he head out the door he told the bar keep to tell a dark elf by the name of Vornac that he was at the Arena, hopefully Vornac would undestand. He tossed a few septims and left.

As he was entering the Arena canton he was ambused by 4 silver men. Vealon rushed at the first one wiht his blade and chopped off the one's head. he caught the head and launhed it at the beasts. luckily it hit on of them and as Vealon was going to impail it he felt a searing pain in his left arm. Vealon spun to attack his attacker and cut its arm off and finishhed with an upward sweep. two down two to go.

the finnal two changed at the same time and at this time vealon's experiance with the undead beasts in this land realy gave him the upper hand. He rolled to the left and found himself behind the two "people". One hack here and a slash there and the silver men were down before they knew it. as he tipped the bodies over the edge of the canton he noticed a strange amulet on one of the silver people, it was wengraved Valpyre's vengence at that moment it was obvious that the creatures calld themselves Valpyre. Vealon Hasted to the Hide-out adn explaned his delema to the leader. fortunately he told vealon that he could stay here as long as he liked.

***thanks Fuzzy Knights***

After some hours Vornac recoverd... After taking almost a dosen of healing potions he was back on his feet. The young Dark Elf master Sheira went up to Vornac;
"So u feel good now, I guess now that... Our Grandmaster is dead its time for me to take over, but I won't! I want u to be our new Grandmaster Vornac..." see paused and smiled...

"No... I would accept this offer another time, but no under these times I have no time for Hlaalu. The adventurers are maybe still in Balmora and the Valpyres are attacking to often!" he replied...

"Hmm... You're right Vornac, I will summon that last of the Hlaalu Masters to a meeting to discuss this new threat and I..."

"Secret Meeting..." Vornac interupted...

"I will see if we can have a secret meeting somewhere in Vvardenfell... I dont know where yet..." Sheira continued.

"Well I have other things to do... I will send a letter to the Fighters Guild leaders all over Vvardenfell including to Aki. They most watch out, I have no idea of what can have happend in Balmora Hlaalu now" he looked down... "After that I will go to the temple, offer them my aid and see if theres anything I can do... I will leave Vealon alone for a while so we wont get attacked. I could need some gear, healing potions, and I need The Master Ring..."

"The Master Ring is only for Grandmasters, but I will be given what u want Vornac. Should I contact the Ordinators...?" Sheira asked...

"Hmm, I dont know... No, insted u send a letter to all the Fighters Guild, write this"
----
In this moment the Vivec Hlaalu Council have been attacked by Valpyres, demons from this new threat on the Island appearing outside Vivec. They are searching out special targets, for one is Vornac the Hlaalu Master, and Vealon Master Theif and Archmage... The Valpyres will try to kill these people no matter what. Derfor I send this message to the Fighters Guild, a Guild Steward name Aki of Balmora is considerd a target for this. Derfor I want all the Fighters Guilds to be on their guard... This included also that the location of Aki should stay between only the Masters and those who can be trusted...

-Sheira, Grandmaster of Hlaalu
---
Vornac got the ring and some healing potions and was given the key to the Magic Equipment Chamber. He gatherd up what magic weapons he could of the dead people in the Council... He looked sad back into the Grandmasters Room.

"Remember Sheira, its up to u to hand out this information. You're doing something with a great risk. I dont know if u are strong enough to fight off a new attack by these demons..." he said while taking a magic bow and a handfull of arrows of a corpse...

He took on a sack with all he could carry and went up... He looked on Sheira...
"Take care..." he said before leaving... He went out and started to walk against the Temple. He saw the sun starting to go down between the huge Vivec Quarters.

There was many at Vivec's Palace, not to see Vivec of course. But they tried to get a glimt of this new Island. Vornac went into the Temple and greeted most of the people hello before starting with the blessing. It looked almost like the Temple was knowing what was going on, several Ordinators was already standing guard in the Temple. Vornac didn't want to waist time here, the Temple would demand something from him... Vornac wasn't known so much here in Vvardenfell as he is on the mainland. It wasn't much to do now, he needed to get more contact with Aki and the others, but to travel back to Balmora he saw something bad. With Vealon in Vivec he was afraid something would happend. The a old friend of Vornac Appeared, a Ordinator with the name Wyst.
"You, its been quite a long time since we two met..." Wyst laughed out...

"Jah, I guess so... But Wyst I dont have much time to talk now, I need to head on" Vornac replied and walked past Wyst...

"Hey hey... Wait now, quite some good gear u have there" he said while grabbing onto Vornac's shoulder

"Sorry Wyst, I have important buisness to take care of I dont have enough time to stand here and talk to u about anything! I guess as a Ordinator u have several things to do!" Vornac cried out at Wyst...

"Ehm... I guess I do, but Vornac, whats the trouble. Its not like u to scream out" Wyst said while staring into Vornac's eyes

"I'll see you around I guess Wyst, we can have a nice long talk then..." Vornac replied and started to run off against the Telvanni Caton

Vornac got to the Lizards Head and found out that Vealon was in Morag Tong, maybe Vealon didn't know. But Vornac had almost gotten to be Grandmaster in Morag Tong while fighting in the Arena. But that was 32 years ago. He knew a good contact, his name was Shadowknife, just a nickname. He could be trusted... Vornac asked him to send Vealon a letter...
---
Hello Vealon

I'm off to Balmora again, I need to have a talk with Aki. That stupid man, he needs to know whats going on. I think that u should stay at the Morag Tong. And you should maybe tell your friends in the Mages Guild and Thieves Guild to watch out, Valpyres can attack... I will be in Balmora for around 1 - 3 days if necassery. If I'm not back to u by 2 days u contact Sheira, the young foxy Dark Elf Grandmaster. I will keep in touch with her a while... If anything comes up, then come here to Balmora. Lets cut out with the letters, takes to long...

Regards, Vornac
---

The Hlaalu guards clomped out of the room, up and stairs and out of the Balmoran Fighter's guild. Aki went to Wayn, "So, what was all that commotion while i was exlaining what happened to the Authorities..?" he asked.

"Crazy compassion Boss, People stumbling in asking for you and all dat, real crazy," the Eldery Redguard replied.

Aki shrugged.

Channler stood awe struck by the immense wealth contained in this room. There were rows and rows of top quality armor, not only the best in Vvardenfell but maybe even Nirn. As Davion walked downstairs Channler slumped agaisnt the hard wall, on of the few not adorned with weapons, and let his mind race over the dangers of this new enemy, the Valpyre. Channler had to decide how to prepare against such an enemy. So far all that they had encountered were spy's and assasins, not any heavy infantry. Channler finally decided that safety was needed much more than offensive capability's. His eye's gleemed when he found his chosen armor, a full set of Adamantium Armor. Truly a magnicifient peice of work.
Next was a weapon. Channler was never really skilled with a bow, but practiced with the crossbow almost exclusively. After searching for a few minutes he found a dwraven crossbow propped up against the wall with several clips of bolts lying next to it. "Perfect" he thought to himself.
Last be definatly not the least he had to find a sword. One sword caught Channler's eye, it was a Glass Longsword but it was slightly "changed". The blade was oddly longer than a normal glass longsword, and when Channler picked it up it had a perfect balance, a long enough handle to either pick it up and hold with two hands or use it single handedly.

Channler sheathed the sword to his side and looked at himself in the mirror and thought, "This is what a Imperial General should look like" He picked up the Dwraven and started to walk out the door when he spotted a cloak, with a gold trim around the sides. He walked up to it and touched it. Immediately he felt as though a sheild were around him. The thought sent shivers through his spine, but the possiblity's were great. He put the cloak on and felt wonderfully safe.

Channler walked out of the room, wishing he could take more. But he walked down stairs and sat down right in front of Davion, or more so posed.

"You look like a great general, when this is war is over well talk more about my stock of equipment." Davion told Channler, pouring him a glass of mead.

Davion slides the letter his father gave him towards Channler and says, "We are in a war. This is going to get real thick, real fast. I need someone trustworthy, someone who will have my back like i have theirs, are you willing to watch my back in these dark times? If you accept, and we make it out of here, we can talk about you keeping a few items from my collection."

There was a silence between the two men for a few minutes, the only thing that wasn't silent was the sound of Davion cracking his nuckles and taking sips of the mead.

"We must leave in the morning to the fighters guild and seek out Aki." Davion said, stairing straight at Channler.

Davion could tell that Channler had a difficult time trying to cram the last few days into his head in a matter of minutes, so Davion opened up the letter and read:

"Aki, this is Fyr, house master of the corprusarium and Tel Fyr, there is a matter i am going to need you to do for me. My son, Davion, though he looks like his early twenties, he is actually celebrating his 101st birthday tomorrow.

What does any of this have to do with what i am asking of you? Well i've discovered information about a demon race called, 'Valpyre' and that they are planning to wage war on all of Vvardenfell.

The Valpyre get closer and closer to my home daily, and i fear they will kill me sometime soon. What i need of you is to look after my son, make use of his unatural skills to fight this greater evil that has arrisen next to the city of Vivec.

You know my son, he's been kicked out of the Fighters Guild repeatedly for flirting with the guild stewards.

Your friend, Fyr."

Another brief silence consumes the room. Davion interupts the silence by saying,

"I'll leave you to find out what this letter means to you. I am going to sleep, i insist you do the same, your going to need all the rest you can get."

Davion finishes his glass of Nordic Mead then stands to his feet, blood driping from where he used his sword to set his ribs and climbs onto his one person bed, not bothering to pull the covers back.

"Theres a spare bed in the next room, get some rest i will wake you in the morning." Davion says and shuts his eyes.

Channler watched Davion walk very wearily into his room. Even though Channler was having difficulty's with all this information, maybe a mental block, but Davion had just lived through something most normal men wouldn't. He glad to have someone on his side, whether that side was the good one was yet to be decided
Channler walked outside, he felt sick in all his thoughts, maybe the fresh air would make him feel better. One lesson from the academy ran through his mind, "Defend when your weak, but attack when your strong." Channler said alloud. A very simple and easy to grasp principle, yet so many have fallen because they didn't listen to it. "When are we strong" Channler thought, he felt strong but did that really make him strong? When troubled Channler would usually practice his magical ability's. Not only did the academy take those with superior combat prowess, but those that were destined to be great battlemages too. That was Channler's intended career path, a battlemage. The empire had no idea how powerful Channler's magic was, he had hidden, the only thing he could have that no one else would try to use. Or at least that was his philosophy when he was a Child.
Muttering a few words he summoned a skeletal champion, then lifting but a finger, launched a fire ball so hot that it appeared to be a blue orb into the skeleton. It flew into a hundred peices, at that Channler smirked. "I had better stop." Channler thought to himself, "Lest someone finds out that I'm not an invincible warrior, but an invicible mage" Now was not the time, but magic does run out, so better to conserve it.

He turned to Davion's house but glanced back at the seared ground hoping that maybe someone would come out in the moring and wonder as to what happened. But now it was late, maybe another 3 hours untill the moons set.

Vornac was on his way to Balmora, but he had thought out a new idea. He arrived in Balmora, insted of seeking out Aki and the other adventurers he let a letter inside the Balmora Fighters Guild before heading off to the Silt Strider...

Hi Guild Steward Aki

I still haven't been able to get a talk with u, but I have to much in my hands. The Hlaalu Council in Vivec has been attacked by the Silver Skinned Demons, the Valpyres. They killed all, even the Grandmaster. I managed to save one, the new Grandmaster Sheira. Me and my Breton friend Vealon is planning to infiltrate this Island and gather as much information we can without starting this war to early. I hope u have gotten the other letter from Sheira, the Fighters Guilds are in danger of beeing attacked if the Valpyres dont know your location. I hope u and your friends would join us in this infiltration... I beg u, Vealon is now in the Morag Tong Hide-Out under the Arena in Vivec.

What I would want u to do is to gather up what u need of equipment and friends and head off to Vivec. I'm leaving for Gnisis to talk to a friend, a Imperial Knight Errant. I will be gone for atleast 3 days or more. I would want u to as soon as u can join me and Vealon and travel to the Morag Tong Hide-Out... I hope I will see u there Aki.

Regards, Vornac the Battlemage
---
The let the letter be in the Fighters Guild easy to see by some of the people there. He headed of to the Silt Strider and went to Gnisis. It didn't take long. In Gnisis he could already see people packing their stuff and leaving Vvardenfell. At the Fort Vornac saw his Imperial friend. He ran out and looked up at the wall...
"Hello there Ranius, remember me... I need to talk with u!" Vornac said...

"Ohh, hello there Vornac, long time since. What is it that u want to talk about...? Ranius replied curious...

"I need to talk to u private, I could need some aid..." Vornac answerd

"Ok!" he walked down and came out, looked like he was ready for combat. Armour on and weapon and sheild ready.
"Now? What is it Vornac, I have much to do here. This new threat to Vvardenfell is spreading and people are leaving to the mainland..." Ranius said...

"Yeah I know this... I've been attacked by these demons. Valpyres as they are called. They have already hit and attacked some people in Balmora also including the Hlaalu Council in Vivec. Leaving the Grandmaster dead. I need your aid, because me and a friend. And some other I have contacted are planning to infiltrate this Island" he said while looking into Ranius eyes...

"Infiltrate... Ehm, we are already at war then Vornac if they have attacked us. We have sent out requests to Cyrodiil City for more soldiers. We are considering a Navel Attack on this Island if they launch a attack. I have much to do, I'm leaving for Ebonheart tomorrow and talk to the Duke and the General" Ranius said while looking at the Imperial Soldiers training out in the field...

"These? These soldiers against the Valpyres. Listen Knight Errant, I almost got killed by five! Five Valpyres almost killed me, these soldiers could rather just leave Vvardenfell they wouldn't make any different! We are talking about a army of maybe more then a thousand of these Valpyres... So this is suicide" Vornac replied angry

"Vornac... This is really not the Imperials battle, its evil to say. But we have been told to not fall in combat of the Dunmers land. We will retreat to the mainland and aid Mournhold. But u have a nice plan, even if its very dangerous!" Ranius said...

"Its important to know your enemy isn't it... Why go out and meet them not even knowing what powers they posses. Come with me to Vivec, lets atleast see what they have then u can report back to the General. I'm sure he would be glad to see u have more information about the enemy" Vornac replied

"Ok Vornac. I will do it your way. But I will leave tomorrow to Ebonheart as planned telling the General and Duke what I'm doing then I'll come to Vivec as fast as I can..." Ranius said while looking up into the sky

"Well Ok, meet me under the Vivec Arena. We will stay at the Morag Tong Hide-Out. Meet me in the Arena in the Catons there and I will show u the way" Vornac touched his shoulder and ran off to the Silt Strider

Vornac went to Balmora, he took a little break at the Soutwall Inn with some beer and food before he went into the Fighters Guild to seek Aki...

Davion wakes up about six or seven o'clock and walks into the spare room to wake up Channler.

"Hey, Channler, i'm going to get cleaned up, i'll be in the Odai River on the North entrance to town, i will be back in a few minutes, then we can go find Aki togeather."

Davion watches as Channler just groans so he walks away, leaving his armour and his weapon on his bed.

Aki read the letter and sighed. Wayn, who had been reading over Aki's shoulder, spoke; "So, you actually gonna go there?" he asked. Aki shrugged, "Its better than sitting on my boat, get ready and grab a few lower ranked members of the Guild, we're going to Vivec."

Wayn nodded and hurried off, returning shortly after, outfitted in Redoran style Bonemold, and trailing two Guildmembers. One was a Bosmer, in missmatched Imperial armors, and the other young Redguard lass, wear litle more than some netch leather armor.

I outta smack Wayn someday.... Aki thought to himself, before grabbing a satchel containing some potions and heading out the door, followed by his escort. Of them, Wayn seemingly lacked a weapon.

They turned abrutly, and walked into the Mages' guild, heading down to the Guild Guide. After all, why waste time taking a Silt Strider? Why Ride when you can translocate?

Never much of an early riser, especially not after being up at 3 o'clock in the morin, Channler lies in the borrowed bed for a few minutes and just try'd to keep his mind void of everything. He got up and looked out the window for a while. The sun was shining, it felt wonderful in his face, but it seemed that the sun in Cyrodil was far more nourishing. Walking out into the main section of the house Channler noticed that all of Davions weapons and armor were lying on his bed, none with him. Davion was not a stupid man, but during this war of assasins, everyone was being attacked, and Davion was now a key player in this game. Channler grabbed his drwarvin crossbow and davion's sword and run out the door. He casted a spell that he had created for himself, Jump of Common House, a spell intended for quickly scaling pretty much every Imperial house, too bad these house's weren't Imperial. Channler flew maybe 20 feet over his intended house and nearly missed the next one, but luckily it was overlooking the North Gate. Channler spotted up further north than where Davion was standing 12 or so Valpyre heading towards the gate. Channler took one giant leap and landed next to a suprised Davion.
"No time to explain!" Channler quickly said as he was loading a bolt into the crossbow, "About 12 Valpyre are heading this way. Look! Here they come!" Channler roared, launching a bolt at the nearest Valpyre...

Vornac was now at Balmora. He had comed to late and Aki had already left for Vivec... Vornac didn't know that Channler and Davion was in Balmora, he hoped they might find them one day. So he went to the Silt Strider, there he saw Channler and Davion screaming out abou Valpyres, beyond the Silt Strider he saw 12 Valpyres coming...
"Oh compassion..." Vornac said to himself

He screams out to Channler;
"Valpyres! I will help u...!" and he runs off to the North Gate drawing his weapons and get ready to fight

(OOC: I most go now, u can just "control" Vornac in the battle, he would start with a fireball then run in with his Enchanted Ebony Longsword...)

Davion saw the first of the men drop. As the men got closer Davion went to pull his Dai-Katana out of the sword case but noticed it had rusted over from the potions that had busted all over his sword from his fall a few days back.

Davion, standing in the river, with nothing but a pair of common pants on, water dripping down his back from his wet hair, saw two of the Valpyre run over to a female traveler and start attacking her. With no time to think Davion grumbles,

"Damnit!" and rushes over to the womans aid. Davion found himself out of breath half way to the woman and the two Valpyre, remembering that his ribs were still sore, as so his leg was too.

Once there, Davion landed a series of punches on the Valpyre with its back towards him, then spins him to face Davion and kicks his knee cap in, breaking his knee. The other Valpyre turns his attension to Davion and takes his enchanted sword and slices Davions chest.

For Davion being so old, he could feel the slice of the sword across from his chest, from a lack of adrenaline. The second Valpyre kicks Davion in the gut, causing him to crumble to his knees, and then he turns his attension back to the woman.

"No! Don't do it!" Davion demands in panic and frantically hurrys to his feet. The Valpyre raises his dagger from the belt holster and goes to lunge it into the womans stomache but Davion dives into the girl, knocking her down and Davion takes the dagger shot meant for her into his kidneys.

Davion screams out in pain, then mutters something to himself and points his right hand to the Valpyres chest, sending him flying into the North Gate with a powerful fireball, killing him.

Davion stands up and signals for the girl to hurry to the nearest guard and tell him what happened then reaches back and pulls out the dagger that was stuck in his kidneys. Davion thought to himself, 'Great, another scar to add to my collection.'

Channler up to wear Davion laid on the ground, he was going into shock, so Channler a simple healing spell so that Davion wouldn't die on him. Channler started to asses the sitiuation, 1 Valpyre had fallen to Channler's bolt and another was wounded and Davion had succesfully, if not very costly, taken out two on his own. That left roughly 9 left. "Not very good odds" Channler muttered to himself while loading in another bolt. Thwump! Direct hit, 8 Valpyre left. Thwump, 7 left. Channler guessed that they were about 20 yards away only a matter of seconds, Thwump 7 left, before they'd be untop of them. The effects of the jump spell were just about to wear off, he figured that he better make the best of it. Channler leaped 30 feet into the air, everything seemed to slow down. He knew that even if he launched his "secret attack" that at least 2 of them would survive, he had to make a gambit. In the middle of the jump Channler unleashed a blinding white light from his finger tips. It was pure energy and it struck the ground where the Valpyre's stood and incenerated it, causing all vegetation to light a'fire. The attack drained all his fatigue and magicka. On the decent of his jump he blacked out.

--

Vornac witnessed the amazing dustruction of all but one of the Valpyre. So he ran extremely quickly to where Channler had fell and cast a fire ball at the silver skinned beast. Its arm burst into bright dazeling orange flames, yet it still charged. From there Vornac simply did a little spinning manuever and sliced open its side. The creature writhed on the ground for a while before completely heading to oblivion. Vornac spat on it and then turned and walked back to Channler. Davion, clutching his stomach was standing there...

Davion picks Channler up and throws him over his shoulder and takes him back to his house, but turns to the stranger and says,

"Hey, my name is Davion, thanks for your help. Go, follow Aki and have him meet us in the Vivec Arena in three days time." Then before the stranger could get a word in, Davion starts running back to his house.

Once at his house, Davion lays Channler down in the center of the floor then continues to place candles around Channler, unaware his wounds are tearing.

Once he lit all the candles, Davion gets to his knees besides Channler and starts to mutter something in a foreign language. A thick green cloud forms over Channlers body, and Davion continues to mutter the strange language.

Finally, the words stop flowing from Davions mouth, and he goes into parallisys and floats into the air, the green cloud moving away from Channlers body and starts to swirl around Davion.

After a long few seconds the could forces its way into Davions lungs, and his arms and legs streatch out and his body goes into Epelectic shock, then Davion plummits to the floor.

Davion had seen this too many times before, and little did Channler know what the Valpyre did to him.

When Channler launched into the sky, one of the demon Valpyres cast a extreamly powerful poison spell on him, thus causing his collapse.

Davion, now lays motionless next to Channler.

Vornac did as Davion said and went into the Mages Guild. He was still beeing careful, with the Valpyres seeking out important characters from all the factions. He gave a little thought, it was soon night. And Ranius would soon head out to talk to the General of the Imperial Legion here in Morrowind and the Duke. Ranius was a charismatic person, and Vornac was pretty sure he would make the Leaders say its OK for him to leave for Vivec...

After getting teleported to Vivec, Vornac starts to head off to the Arena. He was always looking behinde himself trying to act as neutral as possible. If the Valpyres found out they were staying in the Morag Tong they could find our plans. Vornac went down the secret trap-door to Morag Tong, in the Hall he could see Vealon, leaning against the wall... Just thinking.

"So... I guess u have comed up with a plan or what?" Vornac said while walking up to Vealon. Vealon just nodded, still thinking on somethingn.

"Ehm well OK. Aki and two others are coming soon. We met twelve freaking Valpyres outside Balmora. They will come here in atleast three days, so will another friend of mine... I hope" Vornac said

"I have a little plan, I thought it out. I was thinking that in 4 days, we leave out by boat. Just a little boat under the night sky heading for the Island. He go on to the Island and we try to see who this God is..." Vealon said...

Vornac nodded, tired and with blood all over him he left into his old room. And started to sleep.

(OOC: I was just thinking, what kind of design should this Island have. We can talk about it in Plan and Discussion. But I was thinking of this almost a floating mountain, with huge caves. Almost Six House looking. Much flames and wierd symbols...? What do u think...?)

Aki, Wayn, and the other two Fighter's guild members wandered into the Arena Canalworks, one of them headed to a trap door for the underworks.
"They said under the Arena, right? So they'll be in the sewers, or lower, right?" The member asked. Aki shook his head and pointedto the Arena storage. "The Underworks are TOO obvious, they'll be in there..." he said.

They headed into the Arena storage, and clomped about til they found the trap door to the Morag Tong Guild. Of course, aforementioned trapdoor being locked, there was one course of action.

A Battered trap door fell int the guild, removed from its hinges...

Valentine stepped off the silt strider. It had been a long journey from Vivec, and he was happy to be on solid ground instead of in that silt strider muck. He looks around him- he was in Balmora. It seemed to be a pretty normal town, commoners running about. He'd make sure to mention this town needed more faith to his superiors he told himself, and set out down the stairs. "Hey" he said to a nearby Argonian "where's the local tavern? I need a drink." The Argonian pointed him in the direction of the Eight Plates (I think that's it's name), and Valentine set off.

Kalloros knelt by the body of the Draemora, breathing deeply and wiping his bloody blade on his jerkin. The creature had literally come out of nowhere and leapt at the asassins throat. Kalloros, with deadly reaction, swayed back and with one swift motion unsheathed his blade and sliced open the creatures jugular. Panting, he sheathed his blade and half dragged, half carried the dead creature down the stairs of his appartment. There was only one place he was heading and that was the fighters guild. He didn't know why but he had a feeling that something big was about to happen there and that he needed to be there when it happened. He also knew that if there was someone who knew why this creature had attacked him they would be at the guildhall. He walked through his door, locked it and walked through the town dragging the corpse. People stared at him but he was unpeterbed as he had more important things on his mind that worrying about how he looked.
"Stop, in the name of the emporer!" A hlaluu guard shouted dramatically before sprinting over and pointing his sword at the assassins chest.
"Where goes ye with that monstrosity?" Kalloros, thinking fast replied cooly,
"Why. I thought that would be obvious my good sir. You see, this creature attacked me as I was studying and so I reacted... naturally and immediately sought to bring it to a guard for further investigation. You happen to be a guard so I'll just leave it with you. Unless of course you want a rotting corpse being left around your streets." The guard was about to protest when Kalloros added with a wink,
"Hey, if you tied that up I'm sure it'd make fine target practise for your archers." Without another word the tall assassin briskly made his way to the fighters guild hall. But before he got to the entrance a chilling sensation of terror swept through his body and he found himself on his knees struggling for breath.

Valentine entered the eight plates. He looked around- the usual bunch of riff raff. He sat down at the bar and ordered a drink, intent on learning some gossip. It only took a little while before he managed to jump in on a conversation, and from there he managed to wring out some information. Apparently, a large island had just appeared, and House Krellos had just popped out of nowhere. Valentine was eager to join in the fight at this point. "Where is the action taking place?" he asked "I must join in."
"If you want to take part in the 'action', you should probably head down on to the Fighter's Guild," said a shady individual "that's where there's been some hubbub." Valentine nodded his thanks, paid the bartender and set off for the Fighter's Guild. After a little while of walking, he stopped outside of the Guild and began to lay out what he would tell the people inside when he went in- maybe he'd lie and say he was an assassin, maybe he'd tell them straight he was of the temple, maybe he'd even say he was part of the guild. Choices, choices, but which would be the best for the cause?

Vornac heard the noice at the trap-door... He went out of his old room. Seeing Aki, Wayn and two other strangers.

"Hello there Aki, Wayn... Its nice to see u have comed here. We have thought about a tactic for a infiltration on the Island. Vealon is planning now, so leave him a little room because he is still thinking..." Vornac said to Aki...

Vornac gave Aki a little clap on the shoulder... Smiling he said;
"Make yourself at home... I'm still awaiting Channler and Davion, and a friend from the Imperial Legion"

(OOC: KingofSyria, we can say that u are a friend of my characters friend Ranius. And he summons u to Ebonheart to aid him, and from there he takes u to the Vivec Arena to meet us... BTW: Guys what happend to Nerevar, is he dead or in another place or what plz answer...)

In Ebonheart, Knight Errant Ranius was having a talk with the General of the Imperial Legion Morrowind. And of course the Duke. Ranius talking about how they could collect key information about the enemies army. The Duke was still not sure, he wanted Vivec to hear about this because its really not their problem. Ranius denied to talk to Vivec, he hadn't done much the last time. He still was brining up that he had Vornac on their side a important character for the Dunmers. In the end they accepted his mission, giving them 3 weeks to gather information and report back to the Duke and the General from there talking to Vivec.

Back in Morag Tong, Vornac took up his weapons from the Hlaalu Councillers. Many good and rare weapons. There was all from a sword almost like Gravedigger named Painmaker, and mostly other swords. Like Goldbrand, and a enchanted Ebony Scimitar of the High Ordinators, former Guards of Alamexia. And it was a Daedric Longbow, Vornac took that including 50 arrows. The bow was one of the most uniqe and best made bows in Morrowind for almost a thousand years. Its arrows so sharp and enchanted with such a magic it would make it a little more easy to kill the Valpyres... There were also a enchanted Ebony Spear, ancient spear that the sayings say belong to a Saint. Vornac walked up to Aki after laying out the weapons on this bed...

"Here, are some weapons, give one to each of your companions and yourself if u need it..." he smiled and pointed into his room...

***whew well that was a nice break thanks Fuzzy Knight for the idea boost (or what ever)***

After Vealon told the first part of his plan to Vornac, he heard a rattle at the trapdoor that supposaly kept the "guild" of aorts hidden. So VEalon without thinking grabed his twin daggers and lept down to the base floor as he saw what looked like solders going into Vornac's room. He ran up to Vornac as the warriors were going into the room. He was just about to attack one when he relised it was Aki the fighter's guild master. Then right beforeVealon hit Aki he dropped the blades with a clatter, and started explaning like nothing happened (only because he was the best bluffer in the land).

OOC: Sure, that sounds good. I'll wait until someone "activates" me at the docks or something. Thanks man.

Davions heart still not pumping any blood into his body, awakens in what seems like a dream world. Staggering to his feet, Davion looks around to see nothing but blackness, and a few short seconds after he scans the area he starts to plummit into a black abyss.

Davion screams out curse words as he falls, some of which damn himself for sending himself into hell. The poison that Davion drew out of Channlers body was for the purpose of feeding the demon lord with souls, casting who ever got infected and died with it into hell for eternity. Davion had only heard about this spell once, but never thought HE would be the unfortunate one.

Davion finally comes crashing down in what looks like a poorly fire lit throne room, with a creature in full Daedric Armour sitting on what appears to be a Throne chair.

"Wh . . . Who the hell are you?!" Davion asks cautiously getting to his feet.

"I am the lord of the underworld, and Master and Commander of the Valpyre. Foolish of you to sacrifice your life so that your friend could live. You know, i can't allow you to leave." The demon says in a evilish tone.

"So it is true, about the spell. I am in hell." Davion says, starting to laugh evily to himself. "You don't seriously think you're going to be able to keep me here do you?" Davion continues to say.

The Demon King gets a evil grin on his face and says, "And how do you supose to get out of here, if you don't mind my asking? You ARE a slave here, you ARE bound here for eternity." Then the king looks at 2 guards and signals them to take Davion away.

The two Valpyre guards get to arms reach of Davion and he attempts to break free but one of the guards stabs Davion in the stomache and he falls to his knees.

"Ha. . . . hahaha . . . . . HAhahahaahahahahha" Davion starts to laugh, "I'm already dead, was that suppost to hurt?" Davion says synically, then looks up at the guard that stabed him, pulls out the dagger from his stomache and forces the guard to jab himself in the kneck with it.

Davion says, "See, unlike YOU guys, i was alive once, and now i am dead, i don't experience the pains of the flesh anymore, but you guys, hah, you can die just as if you were alive."

The Demon King, understanding that Davion has a point, leaps from his chair, and grasps his hand around Davions neck, sqeezes his neck until his face starts turning red, and casts him back up to the plain of the living.

"Boss, why'd you do that? You just let him go!" One of the Kings henchmen says.

"Because he had a point, if i didn't get rid of him, he could have destroyed us!" The king replies.

Davion wakes up, gasping for air and holding his chest, relieved to feel his heart beating. Davion slups against the wall, legs extending towards Channler, and says in exaustion,

"You owe me one. . ." Then Davion closes his eyes and rests.

***lol nice one Davion***

**lol thanks**

It was morning now, and Vornac was outside the Arena... Looking at the two moons going down while the sun appears. Life seemed great, the fresh wind and the sea made Vornac feel at home. The walked to the Vivec Temple up to Vivecs Palace, looking past it. Some fog was still floating over the water. But it appears it was not paradise at all, Vornac could see the huge Island out there. Looked like a big mountain, he thought time himself...

"Soon we will set foot on that Island... what will await us?" he said to himself turning back and start walking to the Temple. He could even see over to Ebonheart. That was when he noticed a little sailing boat appear. He knew by his eyes that it was two Imperials, it was Ranius. And another, looked like a crossing of Nord and Imperial. Vornac started to wave, before going down where the boat came up to the side and they went over to Vivec.

"So you managed to come, even with a friend. Not bad at all Ranius..." Vornac said

"Hmm... Yes, we dont have much time lets get moving, they gave us 3 weeks to report back with information. Lets go tonight!" Ranius replied sounding like a pissed off General

"Jeeh, I would like to leave today... But there are still two missing, I will leave of to Balmora to check out. Go into Vivec Arena, go to the Storage Room and u will find a trap door into Morag Tong, I will come back as soon as I can" Vornac smiled and started running off...

Ranius and his friend (Valentine) stepped into Morag Tong, soon to see Aki and his men. Vornac came to the Mage's Guild and got teleported to Balmora. He ran out, looking to all directions...

"Where the hell could they be!?" he cried out to himself, hoping nothing had happend...

He grabbed a Hlaalu Guard walking by looking him into the eyes...
"Where is the location of Channler and Davion" he said
"Eh... Ah yeah, they are over there Master Vornac" he pointed off to a house

Vornac ran in to the house. Thats when he saw one Valpyre, raising its short sword ready to stab Davion in the heart. Vornac fast drew his Daedric Longbow and got a arrow ready. Pointing it at the Valpyre. It was tence, he could spare to life of Davion. Only if he was fast enough. The Valpyre looked into Vornac's eyes. Vornac could see that it was only here to kill even if it costs its life. The Valpyre twisted its body to the left, a clear sign to attack. It went for it, Vornac let the arrow fly. The arrow hit its throat before everything disintegrated even the Valpyre and the arrow, the Short Sword dropped landing right past Davion's face. Leaving a little scare. Vornac grabbed a bottle of water throwing it over Channler and Davion so they waked up...

"I just saved your boat, lets go people... He attack tonight, gather your equipment, I have some weapons already waiting for u in Morag Tong. Lets move!" Vornac screamed out at them, without knowing Davion just had been in hell and met the God that leads the Valpyre...

Kalloros slowly rose to his feet and started towards the guildhall entrance, though a thousand voice like feelings told him that hell had payed a visit there and if he went he would never return alive.
"I'll be damned if I let some superstitious thoughts get to me," he voiced aloud. He walked through the entrance and screamed at what greeted him. Bodies were impaled against the wall oozing blood onto the walls and floor. More blood covered the ceiling and dripped at the assassins feet. The place was a mess of crimson and human entrails; Kalloros let out a wimpering moan and started back towards the door. But moans sounded from downstairs, followed by screams and a laughter that chilled his soul. He stumbled back and tried to open the door, but it was locked. Panic flooded into him now and he pulled frantically on the handle but it was no use, for the door was locked and he had no way to open it. Suddenly a voice which was as chilling as the coldest night called to him.
"Come, my child, Morania calls to you and it would be most rude to ignore her." Kalloros tried to run again but something stopped him. Panic took him once again as he discovered he had no control over his body. Some unseen force was making him walk down the stairs, down to where the chilling voice came from. The assassin tried once again to break free but again it was no use. He neared a corner and when he entered the room he screamed, for what he saw would stay with him for the rest of his days. Bodies were scattered across the floor and what horrified Kalloros was that they were turned inside out. He could see their entrals, organs and their skeleton. Blood leaked from them and just like upstairs the walls, floor and ceiling were covered in crimson. Kalloros screamed and tried to run back up the stairs but something was blocking his way, something that personified all the terrors of this world.
"I have relinquished control of your body my child," rasped the figure. The assassin stared at it in terror for the thing was terror itself. It was at least eleven feet tall and was robed in a shimmering black robe which looked to be alive. His face consisted as pure black shadow with two ruby red eyes and flowing black hair. The assassin hands shook as he drew his curved long knives.
"Put them away child, for mortal weapons cannot harm me. They would merely disintigrate the moment they touched my skin. Your magic cannot hurt me either," the figure added as Kalloros drew a scroll. "You have two choices, either join Morania or die. If you attempt to flee I will trap your soul for eternity and your blood will be fed to our goddess. I sense the power you possess and conclude that you would make a good servant. With this in mind I ask you again, what path do you choose? Serve or die?"
Kalloros took a deep breath and thought deeply.

(OOC: Holy compassion Demon, thats nice done. Great written there!)

Vornac was heading out of Channler and Davions house just to let them get ready. He walked around and he walked to the Mage's Guild. He got this strange feeling. A chilling feeling, something evil almost like something was making his soul freeze. Something, or someone was in Balmora. Vornac grabbed his cloak taking out around himself, trying to get warm but it didn't work. Screams... Something was totaly wrong.
"Fighters Guild... Valpyres!" he thought to himself, he tried to open the door it was locked. He drew his sword up, hearing into the door screams from the Guildhall. He started to slash against the door with all his power. In the end it broke, and he kicked it in and ran in. To see the most frightning sight he had ever seen, blood, so much blood and screams, dead bodies. Was like their souls haunted this place. He slowly went down, prepering his magic. He came to the door looking around the corner... Seeing this talk shadow like creature with the rudy eyes and Kalloros. Seeing these shadows going in a circle around his body. Almost as cold that his armour almost freezed.

"Come forward Master Vornac, there is no escaping now" a voice said inside Vorancs head, it gave him a headache.

He stepped in, his right hand holding the bow and his left holding a arrow. He he tried to walk up to Kalloros but could move his feet.

"Let him go creature, I see u posses much power. But its only fear. Release him or I'll send u back to the Abyss!" Vornac cried out

"Hehehehe, your naiv Master Vornac. Why do u come here trying to save this stranger. When now u to is to become my servent or thrown down to the Abyss where we will feast on your soul" the creature said

Vornac aimed his bow right on the creature's face. Starting speaking wierd words enchanting his arrow even greater. He took a eye on Kalloros, knowing that everyone would rather die then beeing a servant for eternity for this demon.

"Now, how do you know Master Vornac, that he will rather die then joining us. Do you know him that well?" the creature said to Vornac, his words poision to the mind soon taking control over Vornac too

Vornac knew it wasn't much to do, it was a trap. Even she didn't know it, but Vornac's arrows could maybe kill him, or atleast send him back. He was the naiv one, thinking he was so powerfull. Vornac thought to himself, knowing the creature would hear it. It was almost like he knew the arrows could kill him, he looked supprised. His ruby eyes started glowing more then ever, Vornacs eyes started to glow in her colour. Vornac tried to resist the magic but even he couldn't help it. He knew this was the time, he sent of a arrow piercing through the poisionous air hitting the demon in the left torso. The pulled back, before sending a ray of lightning on Vornac sending him back into the wall losing his bow. He focused on Kalloros now, as he was a little wounded after the arrow it was only a scratch. Vornac lying outside the Guildhall with smoke still coming out of his chest after the Lightning. The last he saw was that the creature just looked at Kalloros then it went black.

(OOC: Edited)

(lol, thank you. I'm thinking of writing a book, this rpging is good practise and really improves your writing skills)

edit: Yes in fact that's even better for me because to be honest I couldn't think of many ways I could have got out of that situation without help. Btw, the shadow lord is a male, a brother to the one who lives in the underworld (someone wrote a piece about going down there to save channler or something) Thanks.

Vealon paced in his room, thinking of part "b" to the plan. So they have afew warrior's guild, vornac's friends that just showed up, and mabey, just mabey, the two mysterius warriors Vornac has been talking about. that made about nine people coming on our infiltration, damn, so much for being small and discrete. "I shouldn't have told Vornac", Vealon thought, "but then again if I didn't I would be dead by now."

He dismissed the uneasy thought from his mind, as he thought what to do after they landed, should we take over a house? Or should we go to the underworks? We should go to the underworks, and plan what to do from there. I guess I will put up a note on all the doors of all the people in the "little" infiltratinon. Vealon laughed, "I always wanted to work with Aki and to get myself into something big like this but now it seemed that I was making it so we DON'T get into anything." So Vealon sat down and wrote the plan for the assault of the island.
-------
the best plan, in my opinion, is that, once we get onto the island we run into the sewrs and start seeing if we can get into the palace that way.

Vealon
-------
After he was done he thought for a noment, and then he added to Aki's letter,
-------
because you are one of the most crucial people in this "war" for some reason, I want you to look at this amulet I found on one of the Valpyre's dead bodies, I think it is called the valpyre's amulet. I would like it if you would look at it, or give it to a friend who can see what powers it holds

Vealon
-------

The trembling started to seize and Channler was slowly regaining his strength back. Davion was leaning agaisnt the wall, he looked tired.. and old, like he had seen to much of the world, and maybe death was his only escape. Channler had a dream about Davion, he was performing some sort of ritual on someone, candles and inscence made up the setting. Then a green noxious looking gas escaped from the mans body, and entered Davion. Davion's body hovered in the air for quite some time, just floating there as if unaware of the danger inhabiting it. Then, all went dark, and Channler woke up.

"Wha-at, hap-pened?" Channler stuttered, completely clueless to the situation. Davion just shook his head from side to side. He seemed to mumble something about heading to Vivec. Channler walked into the room he had stayed in the night before, suited up in the borrowed armor, strapped on the borrowed weapons, and ready'd his own magic.
"These beasts, or Valpyre, or whatever the hell they are, are ruining out lives. I will not sit idle any longer, we need to head to Vivec and meet up with the rest of our "party". I will speak to the general of the legions in Vvardenfell and "request" his assistance with this growing menace to our life." Channler said as if he was speaking to a crowd trying to inspire leadership and bravery among them. Channler helped Davion gather his weapons and such and went off to the mages guild. When they were ready they teleported off to Vivec...

The Redguard Female, which Aki had learned was called Lairah picked up the Enchanted Ebony Spear, which had reportly belonged to a Saint, Aki recognized it. It was a "Blessed" spear. Wether the blessing was merely a enchantment, or just a blessing was uncertain.

The Wood Elf, Allimir, picked out a finely made wooden bow, and several Arrows of Daedric make, and many more of glass. Wayn took no weapon he still had no weapon out of choice. Aki sheathed his own, personalized Ebony Scimitar (Made in a different design style than those used by High Ordinators), and grabbed the 'Goldbrand'. The blade sung with power, and the air around the blade shimmered with heat. The blade was undoubtably made of pure gold, but somehow, was capable of holding up better in combat than most normal weapons, despite the fact that Gold was a relitively soft metal.

Aki grinnedand swung the blade a few times expirementally before grabbing it's sheath, sheathing it and attaching the sheathed Katana to his belt.

The short distance from Davions house to the mage guild and you could already tell that Davion had become extreamly sick. His skin was turning a pale white with a green tint. He kept caughing up more and more of his lungs, he found it harder to pick up his weapons.

"I hope there is a mage in the "party" were suppost to meet, 'cus this poison is killing me, literally." Davion says, walking up next to Channler on the platform to teleport to Vivec.


(ooc: Continue my part later lol i need a smoke)

Valentine emerged from the boat. Ebonheart seemed to be a pretty small place, but then again all of these cities were. He started off to the Fort Hawkmoth main tower, to see Knight Errant Ranius. Observing the scenery as he went, he was amazed to find it was actually clear for once. His experience previously in Vvardenfell had taught him to always expect an ash storm or rain, but maybe this was a sign things were looking up. Approaching the Main Council Hall of Fort Hawkmoth, Valentine ruffled up his hair. Better look good, he thought. He entered, and after a quick search he came across Ranius. "Ranius!" he said, hugging the Knight Errant, "good to see you again! I'm a little rusty on current events, though, so sorry if there's some tragedy I've forgotten to apologize for. Word around the common gossip circles is that we'll be at war with the Valpyre soon, what's the whole story, Knight Errant?"

After Vealon placed the notes on the doors, he decided to take a little stroll. thou not before he grabbed his treasured mark and recall rings, and set a mark in his room. he slipped the recall ring on his finger as left for the sewers. He didn't tell his new, but good, friend Vornac, only because he would worry, and make a bigger scene then nessecary. Bless him, thou, he is a good soul. After Vealon left the sewers he headed to the boatmen that will take him to the foriegn quarter.

After he got there he remembered that Vornac mentioned that a friend or two will be waiting in the Main coucil hall of Fort Hawkmoth, so he thought he might go and rally them. He bought a boat ride to ebonheart and made his way to the fort. As grand as Ebonheart was, it was a shame that Vealon has never been to this magnificant town before. Vealon asked a city gaurd were he could find this "main council hall" and I got poited to the castle. When he entered the Hall, he saw two men in the corner, An Imperial and a redguard (?), talking, as he got nearer he noticed that the redguard was Ranius, but he didn't know who the imperial was. he got up next to them right as Ranius said, "so, how about it, Valentine?" Vealon didn't here Valentine's answer, but butted into the conversation, "hey Ranius and Valentine, i'm told is your name?, I'm Vealon, Vornac sent me to take you two to our "meeting grounds". So how about it?"

***hey king, if i screwed up your plan i can edit my post but if I rememebr you were the one waiting to be "activated"? and also if you are already were there sorry, i'm off to a slow start again.***

Ok... I'll just edit, so take a look at my post after that!

*ooc: even though thats an NPC i think it still goes in the plan and discussion thread

did i spell discussion right? don't think so*

The seventh house, House Krellos, was slowly gathering more and more followers. After initially having four small settlements in northern Vvardenfell, the House now had settlements on the mainland as well. And the settlements in northern Vvardenfell were becoming larger and larger. At the Krellos headquarters of Molagmora, an army was being amassed.

Midave Vendal, the Archmaster of House Krellos, summoned his second in command, Nibarrab Marvayn, to his chambers, to discuss the plans of House Krellos.

"Sit down", Midave said to Nibarrab. "What is this about?" Nibarrab asked. "Remember when you asked me to take action? To no longer stand idle and to take up arms? Do you remember, my good friend Nibarrab?" Midave asked his second in command. "As if it was yesterday", the scarred Dark Elf replied. "Now is the time to act. We can wait no more; Morrowind will be ours very soon!" Midave said. "More and more Dunmer are following you, my lord. Morrowind will be ours soon, but what then? Do you have that planned?" Nibarrab asked his master. "I might not be able to take on the Empire by myself, but we will be able to defeat anything with our... Allies", replied Midave. "So that is your plan, then?" asked Nibarrab. "Yes. With the Imperials out of the way, the Nerevarine long gone, Vivec a shadow of his former self and the other houses weakened, the Dunmer will have to turn to us for protection against the most recent threat to the security of Morrowind" spoke Midave. "How will you get the Imperials out of the way?" Nibarrab inquired. "If you control the Duke of Vvardenfell, you control the Imperial Legions stationed in Vvardenfell. The Duke went missing a few months ago, which caused general unrest, but he eventually returned. When he returned, he was a different man", Midave replied. "Metaphorically, my lord?" Nibarrab asked. "No. Not metaphorically. The current Duke is but a doppelganger, a shapeshifter of your lord", Midave spoke, after which he smiled malevolently. "Why did you not tell me of this before?" Nibarrab asked. "Because no one knew except me and the shapeshifter. And I wanted to keep things this way. My apologies", Midave said, continuing to smile. "Apologies accepted. What shall you do next?" Nibarrab asked. "After House Krellos will have enough followers, I will announce my alliance with the Valpyres officially. And together with our devilish allies, we shall conquer all of Tamriel. The fact that Krellos never existed up to this point shall have little consequence; we have managed to persuade everyone that we were, indeed, one of Nerevar's clans, recently risen from the ashes to become the greatest force in Morrowind", Midave spoke. "What if someone else tries to fight the Valpyres?" Nibarrab asked. "The Valpyres could never be defeated by any single man. Only armies could crush them, and the Empire will not get involved", Midave said with a confident voice. "Many times has the Empire of Tamriel been in peril, and every time an adventurer or a band of adventurers have saved it. Rumor has it that a group of adventurers will soon attack the Valpyre kingdom", Nibarrab told his lord. "I doubt they will ever defeat the terrible Morania. But heroes can and will be problematic", Midave said and started thinking of a way to get rid of the heroes. "I have an idea, Nibarrab", he said after a few minutes. "Yes, my lord?" Nibarrab inquired. "Send an assassin to spy on them. If they get in the way of my plans, have the assassin kill them", Midave said. "Which assassin should I send, my lord?" Nibarrab asked. "Send Bradas Aralas. He is the best assassin that I have ever met. I hear that none of his victims have ever survived. He is suitable for the job", Midave told his second in command. "So be it, my lord", Nibarrab said and left the chamber.

In Ebonheart...

Ranius and Valentine was sent of after the meeting in Ebonheart. Zerath shapeshiting as the Duke had given them 3 weeks until they should report back. The General was still against this, but Zerath (Duke) knew that by setting them of to attack while the Valpyres were attacking they could send the retreating and showing this to the Dunmer people that even the greatest adventurers could not win over the Valpyre Army. He went into his room, locked it and secured that no one would come in because now he was going to sleep. He tok up a scroll, and start reading the words before slowly disappearing then he was gone. He had teleported to the House of Krellos. He confronts Archmaster Vendal and he knees before him telling;

"Hello Archmaster Vendal. I've commed to report to u that the adventurers are planning to attack tonight. But now as the Valpyres have had wounded atleast two of them it can be delayed. These two named Channler and Davion, are still resting after their fight and is still weak. This powerful Dark Elf, u may know him... Vornac is gone missing in Balmora. Rumours that he and one name Kalloros or something like that was attacking a Lord of the Underdark. Vornac got attacked lies wounded, there are only this Aki and his men, and Vealon in our way...." he stopped for a break looking up at his Master Vendal...
"Knight Errant Ranius can be recalled back to Gnisis, if he comes in the way, but yet I dont know still if the three adventurers are able to return to Vivec Arena... Ohh yes..." he smiles showing off his evil side looking at Vendal...

"I thought you might wanted to know Master, they are currently planning their attack under Vivec Arena, Morag Tong. But if we attack we most kill them, I'm sure they will then know that if we are in Morag Tong then they might think we know of their plans, and they wont attack..." he stops looking curious at Vendal..

He polls back waiting for a answer from Vendal looking down at the ground. Thinking of what Vendal might answer to him...

The silhouette hauled itself from the rancid water pouring from the Vivec sewer outlets. Flicking its head back, the moonlight caught the chagrinned face of the Nord, Greywolf. After pulling himself into a nearby refuse pipe, he knelt down and fished around with his hand until he touched upon the cold metal of his trusted dagger.

Wringing his cloak and trousers out, he reached upwards and grasped one of the keystones on an overhead bridge and swung upwards, landing lightly on the cobbled brick.

With a snarl, he whipped around to face North, and ran through the darkness towards the foothills.

Midave Vendal, Archmaster of House Krellos, approached his servant, the shapeshifter pretending to be the Duke of Vvardenfell, and spoke to him.

"So, they want to attack the island of the Valpyres soon? I doubt they will succeed, but my assassin is on his way. Try to convince the adventurers to leave the island alone. Tell them that it's too dangerous, and if that doesn't work, take more... Drastic measures. Recall Ranius and accuse the adventurers of betraying the Empire. Have them executed for treason. If they escape or if you require any aid in this endeavor, remember that the assasssin, Bradas Aralas, was sent to keep an eye on them. If necessary, he'll kill the adventurers. If you need his help, you will be able to find him in front of the Dragon statue at midnight.

So, remember: try to persuade the adventurers to abandon their quest. If that doesn't work, threaten them. If that doesn't work, imprison them. If they manage to escape from you, the assassin will get them. Good luck", the Archmaster said, and with a wave of the hand allowed Zerath to leave.

House of Krellos - Zerath

Zerath bowed before taking a step back, he looked up at Vendal...
"Yes my master. I will do what I can to make your plan succeed. I will summon them to Ebonheart right away. First Ranius, it might be easier. They trust him more, if not then I'll see them personal..." he said before taking up the scroll and teleporting back to Ebonheart and into his room...

Back in Ebonheart Zerath sent out messengers into Vivec, and to Morag Tong. He summend Knight Errant Ranius to come back, having some important information he needed to share with him.

"Good evening Duke, what is the problem. Why was I summoned...?" he said to the duke while taking his helmet off...

"It seems, that your friends. Are risking to much in this attempt. The Valpyres are not that naiv that they dont guard their Island. The General of the Imperial Legion of Morrowind, have given u orders to sign in your adventurers into the Imperial Legion or into the Temple of the Dunmer. This free war where u, some outlanders and this Dunmer will attack this Island is insane. After the information I got about our enemy u would be risking war right when u sett your foot on your Island...

I really dont think that the Dunmer people of Morrowind, would lay there hands to u, a group of adventurers and outlanders. Not even soldiers many of them. I need to do this Ranius, but u have been called back to the Empire, to Cyrodiil City to serve there under some attacks by huge amounts of creatures in the north. You most leave tonight or else I will depromote u or even have u killed to not follow orders... I have already sent of the General of the Imperial Legion of Morrowind too, he is now in Mournholm to discuss this with the King Helseth (sp?) and I have gotten a message from Vivec that no other then Vornac should be able to take place in this battle. He has been summon back to Mournholm and wont return. I say now... Go back and tell your friends to leave, that this is not up to them..." Zerath (Duke) said to Ranius almost screaming out at him in some points...

"But Duke..." Ranius replied...

"No! We dont have time for this, last time a threat to Morrowind happend the Dunmer managed themselves only help from the Blades. Now, I want u to go back with this letter, and tell them just what I said to u. Then go back to Gnisis, get your gear and leave for Cyrodiil City..." Zerath replied straight...

Ranius, didn't want to stand up against the Duke. He nodded beforing taking on his helmet and leaving for Vivec. He came into Morag Tong, starting to call everyone to the main Guildhall... And when all were there he said;

"Well... It seems that after talking to the Duke. We are not alowed to this, the Duke and Vivec has agreed that we, a group of adventurers and outlanders as he said wont fight this war because we are either Dunmers or in the Imperial Legion. In his letter he says that u all most go back to your jobs or other buisnesses u were doing or leave Vvardenfell. Its up to the Dunmer now, he says that Vornac has been summoned to Mournholm to talk out with the King with the General of the Imperial Legion of Morrowind... So I guess this wont be up to us..." Ranius said disappointed...

"I have been summoned to Cyrodiil City, and I will be leaving now... Well I hope we will meet again. And if you are staying here in Vvardenfell I wish u all good luck...!" Ranius said before taking a step back and walked out of Morag Tong

"Bastards!" Channler screamed as he walked into the room half way carring Davion while pulling Ranius back into the room, "Not attack?! If we don't do something everything that we are trying to keep from coming into this gods forsaken land will rush in like the lunatics on Herciles summoning day!*." Ranius was about to speak but Channler quickly interupted him, "Surely all of you see how vital this strike could be, even if its a half thought plan. We would be probing there defense', maybe even readying for Imperial Legion attack!" Ranius finally was able to speak, "Ah, good sir, I do not believe the Emperor would order soldiers to attack this mystery island even if it was a threat to Vvardenfell. Surely the natives can figure out something, even though I hate to leave..." Channler set down the nearly unconscious Davion and continued,"Then why leave? Fight on! Leaders aren't just people that have learned to follow and give orders! You must make your own decision! For the good of.. for the good of everyone. Now if just one of you can tell me that tell me none of you have ever disregaurded the rules and laws only once I will sit down and let everything happen how these stiff necks would like, much more the Valpyre."
Everyone was silent, except for the occasional moan coming from Davion, "Please anyone, I have done all I can for this man, someone with a greater skill at restoration please help him." Two men from the back got up and helped Davion into the side room.
"I know many of you are as headstrong and maybe more than I, forget the authority if only for a moment to take care of this threat... I need something to clean my wrongs.. If saving thousands of people will atone for what I have done in my past, then I would sacrifice my life for it. Please reguard what I said, be vigiliant, fight the evil that threatens Vvardenfell, and maybe even Tamriel!" Channler looked at the band of adventurers, he knew that if all of them would continue most of them would.
The Knight Errant looked at Channler, "What is your name son."
"My name is Channler Demarko Hadrian, former lt. in the Imperial Legion, and a person with a large burden." Ranius thought for a moment and then said, "Your kin to Antrealio Hadrian.. I see it in the eyes" Channler replied, "Er.. Who is that?" Ranius replied, "For a seemingly inspired speaker you don't know to much do you? He is in charge of all the legion outposts here in Vvardenfell"...

(OOC" This might be my last post for a while, if something important happens you can just take control of me...)

Vornac

Vornac woke up, to be sitting in the bed of some strangers house it seemed. Then two Hlaalu Guards came into the room, they didn't wear all their equipment or helmets, behinde came the Grandmaster of Hlaalu, Sheira. He looked down on Vornac, Vornac was heavly wounded with his flesh still burning in a way that only he could feel. He was confused and almost scared after the meeting with the creature from the Underworld.

"Ahh, what happend...? Damn, it hurts like hell. But what happend, Oh no. I need to return to Vivec..." Vornac said

"Hmm.. I guess u have too, we have healed u and given u much healing potions. I guess the wound soon going to heal. But I know already that I couldn't let u be here anyway..." Sheira replied looking sad...

"Ok, I'm off... But what happend, the man. The man in the Fighters Guild...?" Vornac said and looked up at Sheira

We found u outside Hlaalu Council, u were only lying there. What do u mean with Fighters Guild? Vornac thought it was somekind of spell, but his wound was real enough he knew. He didn't reply. He picked up his gear and his cloak with his armour. Sheira handed out his bow and longsword. Vornac grabbed them and ran off without saying anything. Mage's Guild was locked and the Silt Strider already gone. He ran all he could, feeling the wound almost like it was fresh. His lungs was burning just like his hearth. He opend his shirt looking to the wound, a massive burst of flames had hit him it looked like. In the middle his skin was gone and u could see his ribbs. But he continued to run, he couldn't move as swift as he could before. But after a while he reached Vivec Arena, people looking at him like he was crazy. Running around with bandage on himself. He got into Morag Tong...

"I'm... Here gals... I think we need to go over the plan... one more time!" he cried out while catching his breath. He looked up.

"I was near the Fighter Guild, and something just felt wrong. I went in to see a masacre. People lying dead with organs and all blood everywhere. I heard voices and went down to find your friend Aki, the assassion. Beeing under a spell of a powerful creature, from the Underworld. Tried to save him but only a lightning bolt from his eyes sent me off into the wall giving me this wound..." he said while showing of the badly wounded chest, you would clearly see some of his ribbs... He looked down and up on Aki.

"I'm sorry Aki, but I was in a wierd way teleported or something to Hlaalu Council, and I dont know what happend to your friend...." Vornac said while holding on his wound. Taking some healing potion on the wound...
