sunflower Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 IC: Dehkaz With the winds kicking up and sand wearing away at their armor, the two of them made their way towards the Po-Koro Guard, Sentinels, headquarters. Wind whipped past their forms as they opened the door to the building, the light streaming in from outside taking on a malevolent, red hue. Dehkaz straightened as the door closed, and dusted himself off. "Feels good to be back," He commented, glancing in the direction of one of the crystalline windows. - BZPRPG - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunflower Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 IC: Dehkaz "Besides, it wouldn't be a proper return to Po-Koro," He started, his gaze moving from the window back to Naona, as he folded the offered coat with a precise hand over his arm, a dusting of dry, red sand falling from the toughened fabric.

sunflower Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 IC: Dehkaz "Makes me feel... uneasy," Dehkaz muttered, his voice barely audible. After a second, he seemed to catch himself with a start. It was rare enough for the Commander to express any sort of emotion verbally, while it was even more rare for him to actually voice unease without any sort of humorous slant on the remark. "Probably nothing," He added in a tone that was a fair bit more conversational. "Anyhow, looks like we're stuck inside, so no running around saving citizens from immoral thugs for the time being. I wanted to check on the Fowadi, but that'll have to wait." - BZPRPG - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunflower Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 IC: Dehkaz "Have anything else to do in the meantime, other than watch the sand wear away the walls, that is?" Dehkaz asked, only half-serious. The blizzards that he had grown up in had been a disturbing sight, but they didn't compare to the sandstorms here. There was something off about the sun-eating clouds of dust, an unnatural air that always accompanied the storms, as if the world were attempting to crush them under the weight of the desert. - BZPRPG - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heat still emanated from her, just a few degrees higher than the air around them, but it was a low simmer, rather than the blaze that had been growing before. Saeva's eyes roamed about, occasionally holding eye contact with someone who stared, as if challenging them. Almost like looking for a fight. "Somehow, this place doesn't seem right anymore."

Razgriz Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 IC: "We'll have to make it do, one way or another..." he said, eyes never leaving his food.He didn't need them to tell what was building. His other senses did it for him. Namely, the way things had seemed to fall into a tense hush. There was still talking, but it was much more muted than before.The trailing off of the sentence, through intonation and context alone, clued his partner into his thoughts.They were, as usual in this situation, on the same wavelength. And if it was a fight anyone wanted, he was more than willing to oblige. helo frens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Do we keep moving once Lux is better, or do we go back?" Melna trailed off, looking back into the looming darkness behind them.

Nuju Metru Posted September 17, 2014 Author Share Posted September 17, 2014 IC:After a long while, the great sandstorm abated, leaving behind many damages. Notable among these were the ruin of the radios and the burial of the Iron Mahi tracks close to the Koro. Merchandise, buildings, statues, and anything else that'd been left outside during the storm had been damaged somehow, too. Wearily, the people of the Koro began to repair that which the storm had disheveled. OOC: Sandstorm is officially over! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The top floor was okay, too. He pushed the giant stone slabs away from his house, and they fell with a loud thud on the sandy ground. Note to self: get cover for windows, 88 thought to himself. He walked outside into the bright light and shielded the red eyes behind his Rahkshi-head shaped Kadin against the dazzling sun. He stretched, smiled and fired a bolt of lightning in joy.

Razgriz Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 (edited) IC: He rose as well, stretching his legs and shooting a quick "thank you" to the waitress. Just because he liked a nap didn't mean he could go without, and beside; trying to keep up with Sareta when she's pumped? Wakes you up in no time. To tell the truth, he was interested in going there as soon as he heard the rumor in his own right, not just because he knew it was important for her. Spooky skull-faced marauders, a lot of rampant destruction around, a preoccupied guard...All this was a recipe for the more seedy types to try and profit off of all this. And despite being a delinquent himself, those were the ones he loved to beat up on the most. The scum of the earth."If we go fast." he added, slinging on his own bag. "Let's roll, then."

IC: The sound of metal clanking in the cluttered room suddenly seemed so much louder. Lenat's head popped out from under the wooden carriage of the Railless Mahi. Cocking his head, the Vortixx listened for several seconds before a smile lit up his face and he clambered our from under his current project. Tossing things into his pouch, the inventor called out to the rest of the workshop. "I'm going on that trip I mentioned. Torch, your in change until I get back" With that Lenat was off on a trip that would hopefully allow him to start bringing the koro closer together. OOC: Lenat to Ta-wahi "I serve the weak.

Geardirector Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 IC: Farzan (Farzan's Workshop) With the sandstorm finally passed, I figured it was my sworn duty as an associate member of the Sentinels to do my part to clean up this mess. So Kreff and I started polishing the entrance to my shop, so people could see it and get a much needed morale boost. Maybe I'd invent a giant fan that could blow away sand one of these days. Hmm... a sand-blower. Now there's an idea. IC: Zelvin (Motara Desert) "I believe we're free to continue" Zelvin remarked when the sandstorm's whirling sounds had passed. She turned around and placed an open palm on the crystal wall. Closing her eyes, she began the process of absorbing the crystal dome, bit by bit, until it was completely gone. When she was done, she stood up, and looked around.
