IC: Athiel "Well he's dead now, but at the hands of an Ice user. We can throw out Matoran and Skakdi as the assailant. Any thoughts?"

IC: Atheil "The Innkeeper is dead Qyntar. Frozen and shattered" He motioned to the pile. "Where were you this morning?"

IC Athiel " My name is Athiel, and his is Vrina. I only know of one Toa of Ice, Akura, but he dosen't kill. Infact, he detest violence, which is why he retired to be a scholar in Ko-Koro." Athiel got himself a drink, not that anyone would mind. "It's odviously ice though, so any able to access their powers are fair game." Athiel took a sip of the brew. It tasted nasty. "Like I said it happened recently, and since this place is near the center of Po-Koro, he is likely moving towards the outside as we speak." Athiel noticed Qyntar walk downstairs. "And that's Qyntar over there. Where were you?"

IC: Athiel "I heard nothing last night, and I went to sleep early to get some rest. Also, it would be impossible for Qyntar to do this, as his element is gravity, not ice." Athiel sat down at a barstool. "There are no signs of a struggle. May I ask your name?" OOC: We are basically hunting for ancient keystones to unlock a secret vault that contains unimaginable riches.

IC: Athiel "I awoke from my sleep a few minutes ago, only to see that my friend, Qyntar, had disappeared. I thought maybe he was getting an early morning drink when I found this." He motioned towards the shards. "I believe it happened recently, due to the fact that the ice flash is still on the wall, even though it's close to the fireplace. The assailant wasn't to clean about it, so perhaps he was in a hurry. What do think, Sentinel?"

IC: Athiel "The game has changed." He moved out of the way, allowing Vrina to see the frozen sand. "These are the remains of the Innkeeper. He appears to have been frozen solid, and then shattered. Why the assailant didn't come after us directly is unknown, but it appears he killed him as deterrent." He started toward's the door. "Qyntar may be in danger."

Out comes his Rahaga form. In goes Mata Nui.

IC: Athiel Athiel started to stir from his sleep, having had a terrible nightmare. Soon, he awakened and noticed Qyntar was gone. "Maybe he went downstairs for drink", he thought to himself. He pulled himself out of bed, despite still being very tired. He walked down, only for him to feel a chill in the air. "I rarely go without wearing my cloak, so it's probably nothing", he thought to himself. He arrived downstairs, but Qyntar was nowhere to be found. The innkeeper wasn't there either. He then found, behind the bar, what appeared to be a pile of frozen sand. Upon further inspection however, he realized it was infact the shattered remains of the Innkeeper. OOC: Let's through this plot into overdrive.

IC: Athiel "I don't know about you but I'm going to bed." Athiel took off his gear and laid it at his bedside, climbing onto the hard bed. After a few minutes, he drifted into a deep sleep.

IC: Athiel "Qyntar, you'll need all your energy for tomorrow. I would recommend you conserve your energy."

IC: Athiel Athiel tossed the innkeeper the payment. "Good, we require rest for tomorrow's excursion" OOC: Sorry for the wait.

Out comes a mutilated corpse, covered in stab wounds and set alight by a Magma sword.In goes Takutanuva

IC: Athiel"First we must go about finding an inn. I can afford my own room, and I can buy your meal too. I grabbed my widget satchel I had stashed at my home while we where there."OOC: Athiel may or may not be loaded.

IC: Athiel"Good point, but I'd rather not delay our journey for too much longer. If we must, let's head to the closest inn."

IC: Athiel"Then I would recommend we look for navigation signs if you would like to go."

IC: Athiel"Well, we might as well. We're safe within the city wall and there no reason to rush. Do you know of any Qyntar?" Athiel adjusted his pack, heavy with supplies.

IC: Athiel"Then let's set off. I hope you both brought food and a bedroll. We will be camping tonight."OOC: Athiel just recognized the make and purpose.

Artakha

IC: Athiel "Quite a fine blade indeed. It is obviously of Ko-Koran make, and has been specially designed to channel the wielders element power, not dissimilar to a toa tool. Except this isn't just for toa. Any able to control the elements may wield this to full effect. I used to own one, but I sold it a while ago. Quite a good use of widgets. Are we ready to go?" OOC: Athiel knows his way around weapons.

IC: AthielAthiel only bought some food, paper, and charcoal. He intended to make a new rubbing of the map and use what he learned from Akura to translate it himself. He felt no need to go to Ko-Koro when it was so out of their way. While walking about looking for non-essential item, he wondered upon Qyntar."Have you found what you desire, friend?"

Out comes Alan.In goes Waspinator.

IC: AthielOur heroes eventually arrive in the bustling market of Po-Koro. "Seek out what items you deem necessary and purchase them. I will give you some widgets for the expenses paid." Athiel hands over 100 widgets each to the two of them. "Spend wisely.

IC: Athiel"Good, shall we proceed to Po-Koro?" He stared walking without getting an answer.

IC: Athiel"Then I suggest we wait for him to return. What did he say he was doing?"
