Inside it is the Kanohi Kartayl. The Blood Kanohi. I want this mask, do you understand, Ghlist?

"Our armour was thick enough we never got hurt badly, but at least I know a few plants that we used," he finished lamely.OOC: I like how they knew each other in Ta-Koro on page 5...but now they're complete strangers.

Skarloth Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 IC Ghlist - The Dead End - Talking to Kellin: Ghlist looked at the picture, and then the mask, considering the Toa's proposition. Obviously, he wanted to know how to kill his boss without any of his former colleagues knowing, so he nodded slowly, "So let me guess, you walk into random bars, and talk to random strangers, usually lowlifes who you think you can discard or perhaps use as a meat shield or tool to help you get to what you want, not caring if they live or die in the process, only that you get whatever it is you want before they do. And if they are still alive at the end of this quest, which you tricked them into going on by telling them that you could help them fulfill their greatest desires, you either kill them, or figure out a way to run away from them, leaving with your loot in tow, and them in the dust."It seemed, even through intoxication, he could make perfect sense. He waited for Kellin's response, and he couldn't help but think that this was just another one of the guys that he had just vividly described. -Ghlist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he could finally utter a sound again, he began to laugh some more."Is that really what you think?" he said, putting down the empty glass. "Karz, no.

Skarloth Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 IC Ghlist - The Dead End - Talking to Kellin:"My point, Kellin," he said, the Toa only further proving his point. "I'm not nearly stupid enough to run off with a random stranger to a random temple to find a random mask of power on a random Toa of Wisdom. For all I know, you're just a bandit, waiting to lead me into a desert canyon where all your little buddies are hiding, waiting to leap out and kill me, raiding my body of all my weapons, armor, widgets, the works," he said, a scowl on his face.-Ghlist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadow pridak money gang Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 IC: KellinKellin shrugged, taking another shot before whipping a dagger out from his sleeve and holding it an arm hair's length away from Ghlist's throat. If he so much as swallowed too much, his jugular would be cut and he would bleed out all over the floor."If I wanted you dead," he said carefully and casually, "you would be bleeding out all over the floor of this bar and I would be long gone.

Skarloth Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 IC Ghlist - The Dead End - Talking to Kellin:Ghlist decided to stay still, and not move as the Toa brought out a knife, holding it extremely close to his throat. He knew that this could still be part of this guy's plan to kill him, and it changed nothing, but he decided to play along for now; if a bunch of bandits wanted to mess with him, then by Mata Nui, he was going to give them the fight of their little lives. He moved back an inch or two, "Alright, fine, put the knife away, before one of us gets hurt. I'll come with you on this supposed quest," he said, finishing off yet another drink. -Ghlist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skarloth Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 IC Ghlist - The Dead End - Talking to Kellin:Although he was still unsure whether or not he could trust this Kellin guy, he decided to follow anyways; he knew the desert well, even if he did spend much of his time in Ko-Koro, and he understood the dangers of it. Traveling by night was a good, and a bad idea, traveling by night meant no blistering heat, but it did mean freezing temperatures, and deadly beasts that normally didn't travel in the day. He followed the Toa out of the pub, letting him lead on to their destination.-Ghlist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kanohi Kartayl...the Temple of Wisdom...As he started to walk again after one such stop, he tripped on something and stumbled, immediately catching his balance and drawing his sword. He turned around and saw-a Matoran's leg. Sweeping away the sand, Kellin found an entire convoy's worth of bodies and ransacked masks. There were staff wounds and several bites across the poor traders, leaving no doubt in the Toa's mind what had happened."Rahkshi," he muttered to himself before turning around and heading onwards towards the Temple.-Teezy ＳＡＹ ＩＴ ＯＮＥ ＭＯＲＥ ＴＩＭＥ ＴＥＬＬ ＭＥ ＷＨＡＴ ＩＳ ＯＮ ＹＯＵＲ ＭＩＮＤ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razgriz Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 (edited) IC: Meanwhile, not far away, another Toa found himself trudging through the sand, which, despite it being a desert, seemed rather familiar to him."Confound this wretched map," he grumbled somewhat irritably. "I did have an inkling of an idea that asking that toa of plasma for directions was not the most pragmatic course of action. Even so..." he continued, recalling a young gentleman of around his age being very helpful, if a little apprehensive, in the way of directing him towards Po-Koro. In hindsight, he now realized the cause of the other traveler's attempts to ward him off."I suppose it can't be helped, seeing as he genuinely tried to warn me," he conceded with a small, disappointed sigh. "Poor lad must be tortured by such a lack of direction." he mused, producing a silver flask from his pocket and taking a drink of water."In any case," he said, holding the infernal map out to catch the wind, soon letting go and observing it float away in the breeze. "I cannot allow this cursed parchment to endanger another." he concluded, as a flash of white lightning exploded from his palm, bolt arcing through the air to incinerate the map in question. As the particles of ash blew off with the breeze, he continued on, reaching the top of a particularly large dune.Gazing across his field of vision, he quickly spotted what appeared to be two fellow adventurers about a kio away."HELLO!" He called, waving his arms to draw their attention in his direction. At the same time, he readied his Kulasi, intent on closing the distance between them once they were aware of his presence.After all, Taikunsa thought, it would be simply rude to startle them.

Still he could probably take them, wounded, and with Kellin to help him, so he wasn't so worried about running into them on the way to this temple.-Ghlist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd caught a boat from the Kumu Islets- well, stolen one -and made his way to this Koro. A sunny break from the stormy seas. He found he hated the large orb in the sky. It was so hot, and hurt his eyes to gaze on. He heard voices. Not directly, but he heard the noise. He turned his head to listen in. Maybe they were speaking of something interesting.
