Snelly Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 IC: Skyra - Tunnels -I traveled along at a rather brisk pace, keeping up with Fate rather easily this time, my newfound strength, thanks to Fury, made running long distances a piece of cake. I wasn't exactly sure where we were even going, but it felt more and more ominous the farther down these tunnels we went, so I assumed this had to be the right way to Kra Karda.

Snelly Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 (edited) IC: Skyra - Tunnels -Sure. I responded, Fate had gone ahead of me and rounded a corner. "Fate! Wait up a sec!" I didn't like it when she did that. I rounded the corner and stopped dead in my tracks. Fate was whimpering and backing up a bit. Before us was the massive city, Kra-Karda. Ul'kar. It was everywhere. I hadn't visited Kra-Karda since it had fallen to the Ul'kar. Fear gripped my heart, but not for myself...I looked at Fate. "Stay here girl." She whined in protest. "Stay." I said a bit more forcefully, she reluctantly sat down where she was, just outside the fallen city. We're here... I said to Fury as I began to walk into the city.

otter Posted October 5, 2012 Author Share Posted October 5, 2012 IC-Visionary:The Visionary sighed when Boran started talking about driving away the 'infidels'-he disapproved of Boran's thoughts toward the Cultists, but the Toa knew it already. He merely took a more pronounced stance against the Ul'kar and their cult than did most of the Children."Gather as many as you wish," he said, turning away.

Snelly Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 IC: Skyra - Kra Karda -Well, thankfully I'm rather light on my feet. I kept moving toward the Suva UI. I was being as quiet and stealthy as possible, it was a good thing I could communicate with Fury telepathically. I was keeping a good eye out for any cults, I was honestly surprised that I hadn't run into any yet. Then again, they could be hiding in the shadows. I quickly braced myself against a wall and hid myself when I saw a Vortixx, who was exiting a building and heading off toward an unknown destination. Well, this just might be our first target.

otter Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 (edited) IC-Game Master:"Hold, Ketru," the voice within the Toa's head commanded. He was deep within the mists now, and that object he carried with him seemed to gain energy from the glow about it. As well, it was...not unbearable hot, but it was certainly getting warmer as the Toa of Gravity proceeded."I sense something. Multiple somethings," the voice said, seemingly off focus. A dark stone within a stone, sucking in any light about it, giving rise to a sense of anger and hatred; A brightly glowing stone, meticulously carved and polished, oddly familiar, no longer the plain stone it once was; Finally, a sword, crafted of white metal, similar to that which made the object as well-and a consciousness within it, one of power. A sister."Continue, Ketru," the voice commanded again. "But slowly, and make sure to watch carefully-this realm is familiar, and I am not certain that everything here will be friendly."IC-Cotan:"We cannot rely on the support of the people in the formation of a centralized government!" The newest councilor, Yuluk, growled from his seat, causing Cotan to sigh yet again. "They will do-and have done-nothing but act against us. It's a cycle-we attempt to get something done, and then they oppose it, forcing us to back down!" The councilors about him murmured their agreement, a few of them glaring at Cotan."That is merely because, in the past, we have attempted everything without consulting the people," Cotan said calmly. "The people of the underground oppose us due to the fact that we no longer consider them trustworthy enough to consult." The Councilors all rolled their eyes, muttering again, though Cotan banged his staff upon the ground, signalling silence."Proactiveness is all well and good," he told them, "But all too often is our proactiveness merely a disguise for a reaction to dissent among the people-as this meeting seems to have turned to." He glared about, into each Councilor's eyes. "I know the common opinion among you, that the common citizens are nothing but workhorses who should obey our every command, and that any of them who has reached any semblance of wealth is nothing but a thief." Quite a few of those about adopted stony faces, showing easily their disapproval of what Cotan had said. Good."If anything, I say you are the thieves, gaining your wealth from the hard work of those you are supposed to protect," he growled. "You have done nothing but backstabbed those who trusted you in order to reach this position, and now you attempt to undermine the authority of all about you. You treat the common folk, your brothers and sisters, as nothing but slaves that you can use for your personal advancement. That they should obey your every command without question, and any who disagrees must be silenced." He turned about from the group, looking upon one of the tapestries within the chamber."They're just as smart as any of us, and they have the same ability to disagree with us as any of you have to disagree with your peers," he told them. "The fact that none of you seem to understand this sickens me-especially with you, Yuluk," the Turaga said, turning to look upon the Toa of Earth. "You rose up from a position lower than that of most, and now you expect them to follow you without question, as though you are some sort of messiah? You, at least, should no better." He hobbled over to the door to his quarters, pausing to turn back to the others."This meeting is dismissed," he growled. "I will see you next week, and hopefully you will have plans for the formation of a centralized government that does not rely on your own avarice and vanity to push through." As they glared at him, he slowly walked out, closing the door behind him. Once safely in his quarters, he sighed-his words had been true, though he wished he'd had more time to think them over, instead of just spitting them out in his temper. He'd made yet another enemy on that council which he was supposed to lead, and again, they would oppose him with all they had, acting exactly the same as those common folk they so vehemently spoke against.The Turaga pulled out his necklace, averting his eyes somewhat from the glow from the stone upon it, seeming brighter than usual. He traced his fingers along it, taking in the basic Hau shape, before he noticed something-it seemed to have an almost magnetic tug to it, seemingly trying to pull away from him, and out into the tunnels. His eyes narrowed in curiosity as he looked at the stone, before he put it away. Problems for later.IC-Kar:"Ghaieden, you fool," Kar growled within the Vortixx's mind, "Ignore this annoying Toa. I need you to obtain that stone-it is far more important than any hyped-up Toa of Air with a talking sword." That message given, the Ul'kar shifted that portion of its attention over to Skyra and the sword he carried, Fury."Based on what you've heard, yes," the voice said mockingly. "And I'm not surprised that you've heard little. But, ah..." Skyra could almost feel a physical pain as the foreign mind forced Fury aside, taking advantage of the surprise, and forcefully searching through the Toa's memory."Hmmph," it muttered. "Toa, I recommend that you leave, quickly. And find a place to leave that sword when you do-it's much too powerful for you to handle. I'm surprised its left you safe this long." Meanwhile, Fury would be feeling a similar tug that Cotan felt through his stone, now that her concentration was released.

Snelly Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 IC: Skyra - Kra Karda I dodged the blast of dark energy by sidestepping to the left quickly. Thanks to Fury my physical attributes were double what they normally would of been, and so dodging the attack had been a lot easier than I had expected. "Is that all you-" I suddenly grimaced as Fury was pushed aside and I felt my memories forcefully searched by a different presence, one that was somewhat terrifying. Get out of my head! I thought back at Kar with a growl, backing away from Ghaieden. Having my mind invaded had thrown me off completely.
