A pity, but not unrectifiable. As he stood talking to Briana, she called out to him."See, talking. That's something you can do.Not everything fun can get you killed." IC-Hasil:Hasil rolled his eyes. "Well, time for me to say goodbye, Briani," Hasil muttered, walking back over to Ara'kas."You know," he growled, "If you had seen me cut a rock in half back in Po-Koro, you wouldn't have to keep me down. Look," he said, gesturing about himself, waving his arms about freely."Do you see me leaning on a crutch? Cane? Anything? No! I'm healed, cured, the problem has been rectified."

Eyru Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 The shopkeeper was getting flustered, so I supposed it was for the best when Nikaron walked up and placed a hand on my shoulder. "Listen Avya, if you really want a good blade, I know a place here, best shop in the Wahi, where we can go."It was disapppointing not being able to figure out which weapon felt right for me, but hopefully I would have more luck at this shop Nikaron knew of. So I agreed, thanked the shopkeeper, who looked eager to have me leave, and left the shop with Nikaron, headed for what was, apparently, the best shop in the Wahi.IC (Avya)Back out into the hot, dry air of Ta-Koro. The place had calmed down since the hospital's destruction, and it was nice to see people doing business as usualy instead of fleeing a murderer or a bomb.As Nikaron and I walked down the street, I found myself wondering again what weapon I needed. I'd tried so many, and none felt right, but somehow I knew that there was something I was good at. I couldn't make any memories magically return on command; it was just a feeling. I hoped I was right, otherwise I'd be stuck with my two fists and a foot-long knife, which I wasn't sure would make the cut here on Mata Nui, where everyone seemed to walk around with swords the size of small houses.I turned to Nikaron.

If Deusui read the note, he would see this:Don't believe what he says, he's just jealous. If you're looking for an assassin's job, go to the Lavapool in.

Let's Henshin! Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 IC: NIkaronNikaron smiled, he'd expected this sort of question, and thus was ready for it, "The thing is most merchants in Mata-Nui barely put any effort into forging these blades. What matters to them is not so much craftsmanship, but rather how quickly they can get a product out for sale. The smiths push their elemental powers to the limits in an attempt to push out new products. Most of them spend a couple hours, at most a day working on the blade before putting it out for sale. Hence many are clunky and break relatively easily. That is the result of their desire to make money, to support their family, get rich, whatever reason."Nikaron paused for a moment, giving Avya a chance to comprehend, then he continued. "However Soli, Soli is different, atleast from what I've heard. As you know I favor my daggers and disks over swords, thus haven't truly needed a blade. According the people I've meant, Soli forges swords as an artist paints pictures. She doesn't do this as much for profit, as opposed to her own creative desires. She puts actual time into her work, using her element to enhance the process not rush it. She puts quite a bit of effort into each blade, and the time it takes her ranges from weeks to years. Of course only if you make a custom request do you have to wait that long, she has plenty of pre-made swords and hilts available for sale."Nikaron then smiled, they were here, Soli's shop existed right near the foot of the Mangai Volcano. Time to see if a sword is truly what Avya needs.IC: SoliWith her Arthron Soli detected more folks outside her shop, she called down to Stronin who was currently speaking to a customer.

otter Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 IC-Hasil:Hasil and Ara'kas slowly approached each other, glaring suspiciously. They made the first pass, with no mark being made on either combatant. Hasil had turned midway, as had Ara'kas. She had skill...but there were things she could be taught.Hasil started the next pass, his blade held low, unspoken invitation for Ara'kas to go for a chop to the head.OOC: Go for it or don't, I don't really care. profiles i guess i'm a south american giant otter now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Progenitus Worldsoul Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 IC: The invitation was quite clear, but Ara'kas didn't bite. Instead, she sidestepped, taking a swing at Hasil's arm.

otter Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 (edited) IC-Hasil:Not as much as Ara'kas thought. Hasil sidestepped deftly, faster than most Toa would easily see, and brought the flat of his blade down to parry Ara'kas longsword. He then placed her sword in a bind with his, before pulling out a as'ei and quickly stabbing with it.

The combatants' blades were still locked together, but now Hasil's arm would be at a quite awkward angle. But what was more important was that Ara'kas' left hand was now free, and the flames engraved on her gauntlet were glowing.IC: Isfel walked into Ta-Koro, arriving near the Mangai Volcano. A scowled flashed across his face. He had lost his trail, the hustle and bustle of the city wiping it clean away.

otter Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 OOC: This will likely involve a bunny. Up to you to decide minor/major.IC-Hasil:Hasil quickly sheathed the knife, twisting his body so that he was in a more comfortable position, and now Ara'kas sword was jammed into the ground, her arm at the odd angle. She rolled with it, however, coming to punch Hasil with the flame guantlet. The Mri fighter rolled back, releasing the bind.Hasil then stood, facing the other fighter. He was barely tired, though he didn't know if he could say the same about Ara'kas. To test, Hasil made a sudden attack. Different from his other attacks, calm and collected, Hasil released a bloodthirsty war cry, slashing a powerful overhand blow at Ara'kas.Either she had to be strong enough to prevent her own sword cutting into her (which, seeing as this wasn't an honor deal, Hasil would of course prevent), or dodge out of the way. profiles i guess i'm a south american giant otter now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
