Rahkshi 7

IC: Tharna the Skakdi packed his belongings and most of his Memory Crystals and set on a journey to Ta-Kini, he thought to himself "Ah the solution, where meditation is a blessed thing, it keeps me alive, it makes me hungry, hungry for murder... Wait? No, I won't turn to my old self again, a wrecked machine who knows nothing except how to slaughter." Tharna Left a note at his home that read "To all that visit here, this is now your own home, use it as a temple". Tharna began to walk in the storm and felt colder than usual, an eerie feeling went through his long and spiky spine, freezing him and then he heard a broken mechanical voice saying "Where are you going? you know it won't help you, I will keep a close eye on you and when you least expect it, you will be no better than those who died before you", Tharna was confused and scared, he didn't know what to do.As Tharna thought of living in Ta-Kini he began to worry that he will not be welcomed in the temple, a slight hesitation went through Tharna's mind but he shook his head and continued walking twords his new beginning.

IC: Tharna the Skakdi, alone in his cave, thought of packing his things and going somewhere else. The thought of himself going mad was no help and the only comfort for him were his mumbling to himself:"Ah, the hope of maybe curing myself from insanity, it is relaxing. Wait?!, I am not going mad, I am only being led to this 'conclusion', there is no reason to think I am mad, I must leave to somewhere quiet and less stormy, where I am sure that no one wants to haunt me."

Tharna the Skakdi was just about to meditate when he heard a noise from outside. calling "Hey, you, over here. They are dying", Tharna was confused because when he stepped outside his cave, the storm was cleared and the voice led nowhere. Tharna thought he went mad "Why this must be, the Memory Crystals, the shouts, visions... it all makes no sense, no sense at all... I need to find another life for me, there is nothing here at the mountain. The villages are much better, or if I will be helpless and truly go mad, well, the Southern Islands are the last option, to die where no one can see the shameful Skakdi mumble cursed words that are... no, were the only ways that I spoken. All of my friends are dead long ago and I, scarred for life with this sword of the one used it to cut my arm off... oh, the irony is the sole entertainment I had in my life. The past was behind as it is now but something is different, not madness, not agony, hope."

IC:Tharna was just grabing his pickaxe so he could dig deeper into his cave, He found some Lightstone on the way. When he finished carving a room about 10 Bio wide and 10 Bio in length he thought "What should I use this for?, maybe a small shrine to the strange Skakdi, maybe.. yeah, for the Skakdi!". He took his chisel and carefully carved an ice Skakdi's face into the wall, it took him some time but he was able to do it.He put some of the Lightstone in the Skakdi statue's eyes and then carved under the head the phrase:"Ko-Wahi Skakdi Mata-Nui help us", he was pleased by his work and then an idea came to his mind "I should put the Memory Crystal inside the statue to protect it", so he did, hemade the right eye looser than the left so he could pull it out and have a small place to put the crystal.

IC: Tharna was waking up from his sleep and felt a little dizzy, he finally regained clear vision and went to his Memory Crystal library, he took a look at his crystals and found that one of them was a bit darker then the rest, it was labled "Dreaming, Subject restricted", "Nah what could go wrong?" thought Tharna and started the meditation.He first saw four Skakdi in the snow, one of them had a strap on his hand which said "Ko-Wahi Skakdi", it confused Tharna and so he tried to look closer and he saw that under the phrase was written:"Mata Nui protect us", that had no help in explaining it and so he saw how they walked in the snow. The Skakdi continued walking for a minute or so and stopped in place, they didn't move even a bit from where they were and after a few seconds they all looked at Tharna (in the direction of where he viewed) and a flash appeared, the dream stopped and Tharna couldn't remember having that dream before. Tharna placed the Crystal near his bed and went outside while a mild snowstorm went outside, he walked a few Bio from his home and saw a glow in the snow aboout 50 Bio from where he stood and started running twords it.As he got closer the glow went dimmer, when he reached the place that the glow was, he dug ino the snow. He found a Memory Crystal, he took it into his home and started to meditate.He saw the four Skakdi as they stared at him, they began to walk twords him, then a few seconds later they started runing, then when they were just a Bio away, they looked at him and said all together in an echoing-god-like voice:" You are not ready for it, later on you shall give answers to him and we shall listen, you will know the answers and WILL tell him. You need to fight the war inside your head and let yourself free of the box you live in, let go, be free and later when the time is right, you shall come to this crystal and we will apear, we will give you the answers you wanted, but not now, not like this, only when you are free".Tharna woke up and thought to himself "Wow, all these crystals give diffrent visions, some important, some aren't, but now I see, I must do as they told me".

IC: Toa Ackru was in his house and thinking:" where should I go to find an answer?" he sddenly remembered an old Skakdi archiver named Tharna that miight help him, he packed some food into his "leaf-pack" and started walking north twords mt.Ihu where he heard lived Tharna.He walked about 5 kios when he realyzed he was not even close, as the sun started setting Ackru took a rock and smashed it into the ground and using an angled peice as flint and his knife to create fire. Ackru thought to himself "I walked 7 kio(time passed since he walked 5 kio) and it's still not enough, I need to walk at least a hundred more kioo to get to mt.Ihu but I guess finding out what my dream meant is important enough for that, plus I kinda was bored with Kanae Bay and wanted to move closer to Ko-Wahi".As Ackru preformed his midnight meditation he wondered what would Tharna would look like.

IC: The Skakdi Tharna was just meditating to try to understand how does a dream appearance tell about the future and it's meaning(sort of phsycology). Tharna was looking at the Memory Crystal at his right hand and thought to himself:"This crystal, this 'rock' is so important and complicated that it amazes me how incredible it is every time I look at it".Tharna is going through his Memory Crystal collection and noticed that his first crystal that he found was found over 500 years ago, that made him wonder "When will my last crystal be collected".He returned to meditate about the dreams again "This is rather odd! the pattern of a dream can't be so complicated?! the details of a dream is never so crisp and clear!, this could only mean that there is something in the details that I have missed, but what?"(notice that all of the previous quotes were in Tharna's head).Tharna started grunting in a skreeky-metalic-deep voice:"What is so ###### important about this dream! why can't I solve this pathetic quesion and yet solve cosmic calculations to detect when the Red Star will be in the next cosmic pattern?""I must rest for now... it has been several days since I had a good sleep", having floating in a black void surrounded by images from the Core War and voices whispering:"Get down! they are trying to hit us!","Why have you done to yourself?! we need to take care of his arm!". Tharna was thinking(inside the dream) :"No, get back, leave me to die, the pain... it is... ugh, *cough... let me die..."Tharna woke up in panic and hurried to look at himself in the reflection of the ice, he was releifed to see that he wasn't badly scarred like in the war and yet his left arm was practically not his own. He looked up into the stars and thought "Mata Nui, what are you trying to teach me?"

IC: Toa Ackru was having a dream where he was back in the war, he saw the matoran and got closer to him, slowly the sky went black and shadows were around him. The matoran told him:"It IS in the sand, it always will be and you know it, it has no meaning to you and yet you are connected to it so much... it is...", the matoran died having never said what Toa Ackru should look for. The shadows around Ackru started closing in on him and strange black hands were emerging from it, Toa Ackru tried to cut the hands but it was no use, suddenly the shadowed hands were heading to grab his Kanohi Tryna and when they have got so close he was practically breathing the shadows the disappeared and Toa Ackru woke up.Ackru didn't know what the dream meant but he feels as if it is of great importance and he needed to find what it meant but he was thinking "What if I could ask a favor from the Matoran or Skakdi to help me figure it out?,nah, they will pobably just tell me to go away, but if they do i'm going to be very VERY angry. The Matoran could become in my favor but where should I go?, Maybe my old village at Ta-Koro?", Ackru got in his bed and continued sleeping.

IC: Toa Ackru had just finished cutting a tree. He took the tree trunk and started cutting it into planks about a Bio across and a quarter of a Bio wide. Toa Ackru started placing the planks on the floor, he went outside and cut a small groove in the tree, shortly after sap stated pouring from it and he collected it with a cone shaped leaf.Toa Ackru poured the sap in between the planks and let it harden while he went outside near Kanae Bay and started meditating while the sun was setting.While Toa Ackru was meditating he started thinking about the maatoran who told him "It is in the sand" and started to wonder "What if I missed it?, what if there is actually something there? and should I go look for it?, nevermind it's probably just a peice of scrapmetal".Toa Ackru returned home and found the the floor has been hardened and sso he began to sleep.

IC: Toa Ackru was just as his house and practiced meditaion until he heard an unknown rahi. When he went outside to kill it and maybe have some dinner, it was already gone.Ackru cut some tree bark and took it inside his house, he took a leaf and started to fold into a tight tube, he took it and cut it in the end.The leaf was then used by him to paint a green leaf, he then hung it on his slightly muddy wall.OOC: the hanging was more like taking the tree bark and placing it careflly in cut ot grooves.
