Welcome to Hoard Quest!
You are Zokarth, a recently hatched dragon with brilliant purple scales. Last time, you let your greed consume you, disregarding safety to obtain a strange and alluring jewel. Once you made contact with the jewel, you experienced great pain, pushing you into unconsciousness. You experienced several strange visions, including a mysterious God, the Forgemaster. You awoke in cage, in a foreign village. It is assumed that your trusty minion Morgu Thall Vizzik betrayed you, and sold you into slavery.
After a dramatic escape, inflicting heavy collateral damage to the village, you left the populace stunned, as you flew off into the sunset! After finding a mountain cave with a small amount of treasure, you decided to rest. When you emerged from the cave, you found odd Sandpeople around your freshly claimed mountain. You completely failed at diplomacy, and went straight into combat! You panicked after the Sandpeople proved their prowess in battle, unleashing several wildly aimed Arcane Rays. One happened to hit a oddly cylindrical rock, which turned out to be some form of slumbering giant. More panic was had.


Welcome to Hoard Quest!

Besides being one of the most beautiful creatures to ever exist, it would seem there are several important matters you must confront.
Where is Morgu? Your once faithful servant has not been seen since you acquired the jewel. Did he betray you? If so, then you must find him quicker and administer punishment. None betray Zokarth, the Eternal Storm!
Where is your hoard of treasure? You claimed a decently sized mound of GOLD from some cultist in your temple, it would be easier to simply return to it, than to rebuild such a great pile of GOLD.
Your Magik Princapica has been missing since you were kidnapped. It would provide much needed information on all the strange sights you have seen. Your are magikally imbued with basic knowledge of all things, yet you know nothing of the sights you have seen. Feral Dragons, the grey skinned people which Morgu is one of, and strange jewels which burn their way, painfully you might add, into your chest.
Lastly, and most importantly, what has become of Earl?

Of course, these issues all take the back seat in comparison to the GIANT MONSTERS YOU HAVE AWOKEN. They lumber about on four legs, with a thick tail providing some form of counter balance. What you took as large rocks are some form of tusks on these beast, positioned on the top end of their snout. They have four eyes, two to each side, positioned at the back of their massive jaws. They tower above you, the base of their largest teeth are as wide as a small peasant hovel, while their claws are as long as the tallest watch tower. There is roughly a dozen of these giants.

You sense a different magik inside of them. It feels slow and primal. Usually beasts with such a well of Arcane Energy possess sapient intelligence, but you can see it is not so with these creatures. Magik is like another limb to them, they use it without truly seeing what it is. Still, their magik is greater than yours by ten fold, and that gives you pause. Well, it would give you pause, if every majestic part of you wasn’t telling you to flee, flee until you see these ancient horrors no more, and then keep on fleeing.

What shall you do?

You are Zokarth the Eternal Storm, and you are badly hurt. You would be limping, even dragging yourself across the ground in your current state. Thankfully you are a dragon, and walking is for lesser beings, instead, you sort of hobble of into the air. Each stroke of your dazzlingly, purple wings sends bolts of pain throughout you. You quickly climb up into the air, despite your speed, several tense moments pass before you feel you are safely out of danger from the giants.

Even from high up, you can clearly see the giants. Their grey skin is stark contrast to the golden sands. The beast lumber about, each step causes a small seismic quake, forcing the sands of the desert to shift. They are not very active, some lay back in the sand, soaking up the warm rays of the sun. After several hours of doing nothing, one beast heads west, perhaps out of boredom, the direction you came. The others pick up on the movement, and without a care in the world, lumber off west after their fellow.

You are still badly hurt, the wound on your side leaking your life blood.

What shall you do?

They are heading off to the west, away from you. They might run into that village you escaped from, reaping destruction and death on the populace, or they might not. Oh well, they shouldn’t have tried to cage your beauty! You glide down towards your mountain, which in no way could be another monster, that would just be silly. With an uncharacteristic lack of grace, you land and the ledge, slowly, you limp back into the cave. Crouching next to the pool of strangely cool and clear water, which you suspect is fueled by magik, you quench your thirst. After a long day of smiting heretics (Sandpeople) you crash into your hoard of gold, feeling safe in this cave, which, once again, could not possibly be another giant. You can still feel the faint vibrations caused by the giants migration, thankfully, it is getting fainter.

You toss and turn in your sleep, reliving parts of todays events. You still can’t believe you crashed into the ground when you first met the Sandpeople. When you awake, you feel somewhat better, though more gold or longer rest will help you regain your full strength

You examine yourself. the long gash on your side has closed, but the scales have not grown back. You know that more time on resting on the gold will give you the strength to grow back your sugilite scales. You doze off again, this time to a dreamless sleep. When you awake the thuds of the giants are gone, the total time you’ve spent resting feels like it has been two days.

Shaking of your drowsiness, and walking over to the pool of water, you can see that you are whole again.

Your eyes are drawn to the jewel nestled in your chest. It is exactly in the center, and catches the light perfectly, refracting it, and sending out a dazzlingly beautiful spectrum of colors. Experimentally, you tap into your magik, letting some into the jewel. The spectrum of light is stopped, as the jewel starts to emit a soft purple light. When you pull the magik out, it is once again a colorless gem, almost like glass. Huh, that will need further experimentation.

Returning to your cave, you pull out the scrolls you saw from earlier. There are three scrolls, quickly scanning over them reveals their contents. One deals with basic water magik, vital to mortals in the desert, while another is on earth magik, with an emphasis on manipulating sand. The last scroll is form form of map.

Recalling that the school of water magik deals with healing wounds, and remembering the panic you felt when your life blood was leaving you, you choose to start with the water scroll.
The concepts are for mortals, who struggle with manipulating their own Arcane Energy. You pass over the parts dealing with “summoning your Arcane Energy”, and other such trivial points. With water magik, you have to let your Arcane Energy flow, it will pick out the quickest path, it is the “natural” approach to controlling magik. The part you feel that you will struggle with is controlling water. You must let your Arcane Energy flow out of your body, and into a pool of water, you’ve never done something like this before, you’ll have to practice this to use it in combat.

Healing is much more simple, you left the Arcane Energy flow into a body, and into the wound, your Arcane Energy gives the body the power it needs to knit closed gashes, and remove bruises.

By the time you have finished reading, the sun has set, seems that time has moved quickly.
It’s the start of the third night since you have awoken the giants, and you feel a little amount of responsibility for unleashing such an ancient force on the world, but truly, it is the Sandpeople’s fault.

Congratulations!

You are a smart dragon, you just finished reading a scroll, you feel that is enough academic work for one day, and decide to explore your domain! After all, you are the majestic lord of this mountain, and you should know it better.

Of course, you’ve already had a look from the top of the mountain, and you saw nothing but desert. That means the only place to explore is the mountain itself. When you earlier scouted the tunnels, you turned back before they became too complicated, potentially saving yourself from getting lost. You proudly strut out of your treasure room, and off into the tunnels.

Before you go too far, you recall the map you found earlier. Hurrying back to your GOLD, you find the scroll, and confirm your suspicions. It is a map of the cave, the way is winding and complicated, with many notes scribbled on different branches. Most have “Dead End”, others have symbols, which you think mean treasure, and GOLD, but are crossed off, most likely meaning it was collected. One red line sets off the furthest into the mountain, with a perpendicular red dash, with the notes {Lost too much crew, had to turn back, we were so close}, On a side note, you see the handwriting changes after some branches, signifying that there were different people handling the map. The only concerning thing is that as the map goes deeper and deeper into the tunnels, the handwriting changes more and more, and overall the quality degrades, as if in hurry, or darkness. You even note some drops of blood on the last note. Mortals can be silly! This will be an exciting expedition to the ends of your new domain! The entire mountain shall observe your beauty!

You are Aranya Thall Erkat, you just returned to the town of Lotik after a long trade expedition. You guarded a trade caravan from all sorts of bandits and beasts. The blood shed is worth it, for you have earned your pay, as any true warrior should. With it, you can feed your family another day. With a smile on your face, you set off into the busy streets of Lotik, people from all over come to this town to trade their goods, the oasis funneling a large amount of trade into this one point.

People keep on talking about some sort of dragon, ha, strange. Usually the pest are -
There is a loud quake. The vibration through the ground, the entire market freezes. You realize now that the vibrations had been going on for a while, only now have they reached such a strength to be noticed.

Chaos breaks out when the bells start to ring, danger is approaching. As a warrior, you must mount the walls to defend the town, you are honor bound. You must see your family first though. You set off in a sprint, fighting the flow of the crowd, all talks of date prices and dragons forgotten

You are almost there. Almost there. You can see your house, cuts of green silk marking it as a home of a warrior. it is nestled in the eastern wall, where many other warrior homes are. You didn’t notice it in your panic, but the thudding has stopped. There is a high pi t ch whi s tl e. It ri n gs in your h ea d. Wh A t is goi NG on?

There is a tear in reality, looking inside reveals a world of chaos, something old, you look, and when you close your eyes, you forgot what you saw. This goes on for who knows how long. Forever? A second? and hour? Did it really happen?

Suddenly there is an explosion, a loud roar, black shadows are flung into the light, eating away the world around it. Your house is gone. Your family? What has happened to your family? Are they dead, they can’t be!

Then you hear the roar again, and you see it. A beast so massive it towers over the highest tower in the city.

You are Zokarth the Eternal Storm. You are on an adventure, and it is quite fun. The tunnels are silent, you don’t see what the mapmakers had such struggles with. You stick with the outlined path as it is quick journey. You see skeletons locked in death grips. One has a curved sword plunged into some sort of giant snake. Another is covered in the skeletons of some small tailed creature. Often you find two humanoid skeletons with with their swords in each other, and more often than that is a lone human skeleton with a dagger in its back, slumped against the wall. Mortals are silly. It is a little past the end of the red trail that you see a faint flow.


You rush around the corner, excitement in your chest, and see a strange sight. Lava flows across the ground in a small river of lava. Around the river of lava are clusters of crystals, huge things. Mortal merchants would faint at the sight of them, if they had not already fainted at the sight of your majesty. Despite the strange terrain before you, your eyes are drawn towards the largest crystal in the room. It is suspended by chains from various points in the cave, their metal humming with enchantments.

What shall you do?

How dare this crystal try to be beautiful in your presence. The dull light cast on it by peculiar crystals in the roof, can not compare to the ever shining light that is Zokarth! You rear up on your hind legs, spreading your wings out, displaying your majesty. But… damn it. Why is this inanimate object making you feel insignificant? You are Zokarth! The Eternal Storm! Slayer of Sandpeople, Breaker of Silence! You roar, the sound reverberating throughout the tunnels, a chorus of heavenly voices justifying your beauty!

The crystal does not seemed phased.

You deflate slightly, that feeling of incompetence still there. What else about you is impressive? Your GOLD! That will show that damned crystal! You spring into the air, your wings allowing you to cover ground quicker than any mortal. Flying underground can always be tricky, but these tunnels were formed naturally, they lack sharp turns.

You rush back into your cave, flinging the GOLD back into the chest, taking the time to carefully put the scrolls on top. Back to the crystal! HAHAHA! Oh wait, You can’t lift this much GOLD. Where the hell is Morgu? After what feels like a lifetime, you finally reach the crystal cave again, expectantly looking up at the crystal, “ARE YOU NOT IMPRESSED?”, you yell.

The crystal remains silent.

Worship does help sustain you, but causes different things depending on how you are worshiped.

Explore and examine with magic, if possible. Look for signs of who made the chains, and why they aren't making us more treasure. Appraise crystals and Crystal.

I guess I didn't really explain this quest when it came to dice

You might have noticed that when you get 20s something spectacular happens. With 1s you might not die, but something extreme also happens

If you get multiple crits/critfails God help us

Double doubles has something ... strange happen

doubles or triples have less spectacular results

Like the Elite and Mage both got 6s they had a sort of critfail

11 is a double, you got two 11s
double doubles

doubles is getting two rolls of 9
They haven't come up yet, but when you roll a 1d100, 99, 88 ,etc are doubles

on a 1d20, a flat 11 is not a double

This crystal is getting on your nerves, how is it not impressed by your GOLD? No matter, you win, even if it won’t say anything! You are quite tired from all these peasant work, how did Morgu keep it up for hours? Your superior body just doesn’t feel the need for such work, it would seem. You decide to examine the magical chains around around the crystal. The enchantments are strong, but not what you would expect. Most magikal bindings have such enhancements as {Contain, Absorb Magik, Unbreakable}. The enchantments of the chains are strange {Bind, Shift, Protect, Unbreakable...Feel?} and several others that are too subtle to notice.

This does spark your interest slightly, but you are too tired to care. You sulk over to your chest of gold, and curl up surrounded by the bliss that is GOLD. You dream of strange four armed grey folk running around, they have thoughts that are different from yours, they speak in songs, and dance from place to place. One walks up and slowly pets yours tail. Its touch is cold, like metal, but it still tickles and you laugh. It lifts you up, by the tail, you slowly drift through the air, facing the ground, this is a fun creature. Suddenly, it spills you around, and looks into you in the eyes. In its eyes you see two blue crystals. It speaks, “Hello” The voice rings in your head, knocking around in your head.

Your eyes snap open, chains curl around you, they move as if they are alive, you held high over the ground, facing the crystal. The voice still rings in your head.

What shall you say/do?

>>34895004
‘I AM ZOKARTH THE ETERNAL STORM” You roar at the crystal, despite feeling helpless in your new chains, “THE SLAYER OF THE SANDPEOPLE AND BREAKER OF SILENCE! COWER FOR I-” Your rants are broken off by feminine giggle

“Of course you are, and my, what a beautiful jewel you have”, a chain snakes upwards and slowly caresses the jewel embedded in your chest, this is making your uncomfortable. “You make call me Venvia” It says with a giggle. Panic is starting to crawl into your mind. Is this the true reason the map makers turned back? Can you not go one day without awakening some form of ancient magik? Does she have to keep on giggling? Is this some psychotic crystal?

“VENVIA, I DEMAND TO BE RELEASED AT ON-”, once again, your are cut off by a giggle.

“You are a silly… uh.. I don’t remember what you are..oh you’re a dragon! Yes, I remember dragons!” A peel of laughter breaks out, it sounds of sunshine and meadows, dancing and friendship. Of course, to your ears, it sounds like the laugh of a giant fucking crystal which can control chains, and has you in its grip. “I would let you go, but we can only talk if we have physical contact, you know, and I’ve been down here for a looong time, it gets so lonely” That entire sentence was one long, drawn out breath. If crystals could breath. You confirm your suspicions that this is an insane crystal. “Woo” Venvia exclaims, as if out of breath, “What do people even talk about?”
>>
>>34895371
There is silence, but Venvia speaks again, apparently she (?) loves to talk, “Oh! I know! I know you’re a dragon, but you don’t know what I am! Or rather, I should say was. I use to be a… a..” At this point her voice falters. Images cut their way into your mind. A woman, made of stars and crystals, beautiful to all. A mighty dragon without scales, its exterior covered in slabs of gems and crystals. Finally there is just an image of the crystal she is now draped in chains.

What shall you say?

Ask her whether she was a woman or a dragon, and why so crystal-related. (I'm banking on mortal magician who took up a dragon's form.)

Oh Yee of little faith, I have returned!

>>34895371

The chains started coil tighter, “Uh… I can’t seem to ..to remember” the chains got tighter and tighter, you feel the air being pushed out of you.

It might be because you are also a dragon, but you felt there was the greatest amount of emotion behind the image of a dragon. Wind flowing over wings, breathing some strange blue flame, and other such emotions you could relate to. The other images seemed hollow, forced. “A dragon” You gasp out, with your last bits of air you add, “Almost as beautiful as me” The chains freeze, and then quickly uncoil.

“Oh! Know I remember! Thank you Zokarth”. The chains gently lower you to the ground, and then wrap around the crystal. You feel a great surge of arcane energy and see bright rays of light in the gaps between the chains, you avert your gaze, the light is too strong. When you look back there stands a dragon. It as you saw when it was shoved into your mind. Venvia lacks any sort of scale, instead she is encrusted in the same form of crystal lying dotted around the cave, blue apatite or colored quartz. She is slightly smaller than you, while you are 5 feet at most from snout to tail (you grew after your recent battle and recovery), Venvia is at most a half a foot shorter than you, and far more slender. Instead of spikes running down her spine, they are dazzlingly crystals, and where your wings have a lavender membrane from your bones, Vinvia has long quartz jutting out from where bones should be, they remind of feathers. She looks up at you with sapphire eyes, and what passes as a smile for dragons.
“So what are we gonna do now?” She says excitedly, with a hop in her step.

“We?” You scoff, “I am the lord of this mountain, the greatest beauty to ever grace it, and I was trying to sleep before you interrupted me”, You could see her shoulders slouch, and her wings wrap around her protectively.

As you dramatically spinned around and marched over to your chest of GOLD, a very small voice says behind you, “I do think your gold is impressive. I just couldn’t say anything”.
Damn it, she is the first person to speak to you that hasn’t attacked you. Morgu doesn’t count, because in the grand schemes of things, he did attack you behind your back. Should you say something, even though she insults you by trying to be as majestic?

What shall you do?

First let's try to figure out what the heck left her in such a state. And whether there's any danger of it doing the same to us.

Then let's try and ascertain why this dragon come so close to rivaling our splendor. It's not okay, particularly given how airheaded she's acting.

You turn around. You’re better than this. Just don’t say something stupid. "Hmmm...well, I suppose you're beautiful enough to share my domain with. It's hardly worthy of such creatures as us, but I suppose I shall show you, regardless” Fucking. Nailed. It.

With a slightly higher pitched giggle then before, she rushed up to you, running her neck up your neck. DEAR GODS SHE TRYING TO KILL YO- oh wait, that’s just what passes as a hug for dragons. Did you just feel some Arcane Energy leave your body? Why is everything so warm? Oh no… that’s just “physical contact”.

You lead Venvia through the tunnels, pointing out little details. Crystals in the walls which she seems fascinated with, and the many dead mortals, which oddly sadden her to some extent.Venvia asks you “why did they had to die”,in a hushed tone.

To which you reply “Because their greed consumed them”.

You then show her the strange pool of water, which is far less clear and far less cool, regardless, you both share a drink at the pool, refreshing yourselfs. When you both reach the ledge you tell her the story of your battle with the sand people, pointing out the wall of glass you made. Venvia doesn’t seem to notice the last bit though, instead she leaps of ledge with that laughter of hers again. It reminds you of grass and warm beaches. Have you ever seen grass before? “Come on Zokarth! Come fly with me!” Insolent worm! you’ll show her! You are Zokarth the Eternal Storm! You fly off after her, and you two start to.. dance. As far as dragons can dance, you swoop and chase after each other. Flying low to the ground, then soaring high above. Faking each other out, only to fly in a different direction at the last moment.
>>
>>34897314
The sun is starting to set when you fly back to the ledge, laughing after a long day of flying. “That was so fun Zokarth! I don’t even remember flying like that! Too bad this desert is so empty. Though it is beautiful in it’s own way”

“There use to be many more rocks here, until I hit one with a blast of my magik during combat, really it was the Sandpeople’s fault. Apparently they were giant grey monsters, the rocks were their twin horns, if you thought I was surprised, you should have seen the Sandpeople!” You chuckle is cut off when you see Venvia’s face, it is deep in thought

“Planewalkers” She says barely louder than a whisper . “I.. I remember that, from before you found me”

“Do you remember anything else?” Your curiosity getting the better of your.

“It’s...foggy” Is all Venvia says. This could offer information into Venvia’s past, but she seems confused and scared.

What shall you do?

You decide to let sleeping giants lay, ha, you’re a funny dragon. “That’s alright Vendia, I can see you don’t want to talk about it”. Vendia nuzzles your neck again, with a tired smile,

“Thanks Zokarth”

You make the long trek back down to the crystal cave where your hoard is located. This time there is far less conversation. Vendia has a thousand yard stare most of the way down, but breaks out of it when you reach the cave.

You decide that you have had enough excitement for one day, you do require your beauty sleep if you wish to be the ruler of this mountain. “Venvia! We shall rest for now, and tomorrow we shall conquer the WORLD! Or, you know, explore some more of this mountain” You jump into your chest of GOLD, and make yourself comfortable. Venvia walks up next to the chest of cold. You feel magik well in your chest, your instinct getting the better of you. NONE DARE TOUCH YOUR GOOOOLD! She stops at the corner of your chest of GOLD and curls up, closing her eyes. Oh. that was a close one. You too close your eyes, almost drifting off to sleep.

You open them up again though, and see Venvia sleeping on the cold floor. A true overlord watches out for his followers, and though you shudder at sharing your GOLD, it seems the right thing to do.

What shall you do?

Thanks Anon! Hurry, you're missing out on the dragon-swiss conspiracies!

She's part of your horde anyway.

>AFTER THEM!

>>34898215
>1/4th of your GOLD
>Magik scrolls!
>>
>>34898215
Actually, she's slightly smaller than us, presumably slightly less powerful than us, and we'll both increase in size proportionate to how much loot we snooze on. Half would be good, would keep her powerful but not too powerful, and be a beneficent gesture.
>>
>>34898215
>1/4th of your GOLD
>Magik scrolls!
>>
>>34898215
Oh one more note, the GOLD allows your dragon companions to grow at the same rate, giving them less than you might stunt their growth
>>
>>34898215
1/4th

We'll totally ake it back.. I sware
>>
>>34898290
not stunt slow
>>
>>34898290
Well.. I voted 1/4th... now that you're saying that I'm leaning Half...
>>34898296 Me changing to

>HALF of your GOLD
>>
>>34898313
Half. Maybe 45%.
>>
>>34898215
I >>34898268
am changing to 1/3
>>
>>34898215
>>34898290
2/5ths of our GOLD

45%, and 1/2 are also acceptable, but no less then 2/5ths.
>>
>>34898346
That wasn't you that was me! And I don't wanna change my vote

So I'm getting a lot of mixed votes, but it looks like 30%-45%

>Might

[+1 Friendship with Venvia]

Oh no /tg/ you grew as a person

>>34898385
I don't think we can give her more than one and a half times the gold we have.

And even if we could, that would leave nothing for us.
>>
>>34898432
Character development gawd dammit
>>
or we could have just had her sleep on our gold pile with us.
>>
>>34898432
>only giving her enough that she might not be crippled for life by malnutrition
Truly, we are heroes.

Of course, if she's some parasite, this might be a means of reducing our growth and thereby keeping us manageable, or preventing us from growing to a power at which we'd be able to notice/remove her as swiftly.
>>
>>34898432
Well fuck
>>
>>34898465
Chest probably isn't large enough for that. Otherwise it would be a sound solution.

>>34898470
Have hope, maybe we can rectify it tomorrow.
>>
>>34898215
You shove some GOLD off the side and settle in to sleep. You awake deep in the night to Venvia standing over you, chains out the back of her back wrap around you. You feel weak

Gods damn it. You can’t. You must. You can’t. You must. Fighting your own limps you push about a third of of GOLD of the side, “Uh…. Here’s some of my GOLD Venvia, sleep well”.

“Thanks Zokarth” You heard Venvia say in a singsong voice, you can hear the smile on her lips.

When you awake, You can’t see Venvia anywhere. You frantically jump out of your chest scanning the room. Ah there she is. Curled up on top of a patch of crystals. It seem the noise you made awoke her, she cracks one eye open, looking at you, “Oh morning, Zokarth. Thanks for the gold last night, but I couldn’t sleep on it, I felt drawn to these CRYSTALS”, she snuggles back into the patch of crystals.

[While Zokarth requires a hoard of GOLD to grow and prosper, Venvia needs precious minerals. Her hoard will consist of mostly jewels and gems. ]

Yay niches

Both of you seemed to have grown at the same rate over night. That is comforting, no one should be more majestic than you! You stretch out your wings, it looks like you’re not going back to sleep. What was it you wanted to do again?

(Seriously only one guy voted)

>>34898859
Adventure acquires GOLD, AFTER THEM is presumably to avenge ourselves on people who inhibited our acquisition of GOLD. Knowledge is Power is presumably with the intent that Power can be leveraged to the acquisition of GOLD.

Also, just to keep to my name.

The planeswalkers are ancient peacekeepers, essentially the all-powerful, immortal police force of the age of supermagic when taking a shit would produce the Mighty Turd of Ages Past, or something. Things have regressed since then, and as such the Planeswalkers have been taking longer and longer breaks. Right now, we just woke them up so they're doing a quick patrol.

Venvia is one of the things they imprisoned eternally, having been unable to outright destroy her (or her crimes simply weren't bad enough to warrant it), or she's an abomination thing from back then.

Dragons and everything else have dropped in magical ability since then...though I suspect potential remains.


How close am I, Sempai?

You strut over to Venvia. It is not often one could wake up to your shining brilliance. You reach out a claw and shake her. She shrugs it off and curls up tighter, “Go awaaaaay” She says weakly. You huff, this is annoying, you rear up on you hind wings and flap. The wing starts to kick up small pieces of crystal and rocks, making an irritating whooshing noise in the tunnels. “Alright! I’m up, I’m up!”, Venvia says with a weak chuckle, “Sorry, I was just dreaming, I use to never dream before you found me”, she gets that far away look on her face again.

You snap her out of it, “Venvia, I think it’s important for us to find these Planewalkers, we should see if they have caused any damage” She gives you a curt nod, accepting your decision. You once again set off into the tunnels, making ideal chatter along the way. Talking about flying, magik, little things. You both spread your wings when you reach the ledge and fly high into the sky. You lead Venvia westward, the direction of Lotik and presumably the PlaneWalkers.

It takes you several hours to reach Lotik, though you do not recognize it . Large craters are scattered across the town, as if the ground was simply picked up. You can see houses cleanly cut in half, a camel with its hind legs missing, and a palm tree cut straight down the middle. There is also the damage you would expect giant monsters to make. Crushed buildings, deep gouges in the earth, and what seems to be purple and blue blood, mixed in with the red you would suspect.

You think you can see some survivors shifting around the ruins of their lives.

What shall you do?

You soar high, calling forth you magik. It courses through you, filling you with magik. You let out a roar, letting the lightning erupt into the sky. That gets most peoples attention. They look up at you, the sadness in their eyes replaced by wonder. You keep this show up for a while, letting out the occasional bolt of lightning for show. Finally you decide the grace the watching populace with you presence. You descend from the heavens, like an angel from above. A crowd has gathered. You look upon them. Helpless mortals, you could kill them all with on breath. They should cower, beg at your feet for their lives they imprison you.

Nay, for you are a kind God. You shall show mercy to these people. For it is not their sins that anger you. It was Morgu who sold you into slavery. The fine heads of silver are lowered in your presence, they dare not gaze upon your beauty. You speak, your voice flows over the crowd, enticing them, pulling them in.

“BEHOLD PUNY MORTALS, THE DESTRUCTION THAT BEFALLS THOSE WHO ARE NOT UNDER THE PROTECTION OF THE MIGHTY ZOKARTH THE ETERNAL STORM! RULER OF THE MOUNTAIN! SLAYER OF THE SANDPEOPLE! BREAKER OF SILENCE!

The crowd is silent. One man stands up, hope has been returned to his eyes, “Can you slay the beasts who did this? Can you avenge our families?” You look the man in the eyes, he is unwavering, they are filled with despair, pain, hope, anger, all mixed into one.

“Yes” Your voice rings out across the crowd. They are silent, then they are cheering. The crowd flows over you, people gingerly reach out touching your feet, taking it as a blessing. One man with a scar down his face approaches, saying something about armor, the next thing you know, young apprentices swarm over you, latching on plates of that silver metal you associate with these people. The man leans closer, having you yell over the crowd to be heard, “MY LORD! THIS ARMOR WILL GROW WITH YOU! IF IT IS DAMAGED, GIVING IT MAGIK WILL ALLOW IT TO REGROW! SLAY THOSE DAMN BEAST”. With that he is gone, swallowed up by the crowd.

At first you struggle, HOW DARE THESE MORTALS APPROACH YOU. Then you let it flow, like water magik, the crowd loves you, you are Zokarth after all. They seem been dazzled by Venvia as well, also approaching her, putting flowers around her neck, touching her feet as well, but they do not cheer her as they do you, they merely pay their respects. By some means of magik or worship, your likeness is constructed in the town center. It is you in all your majesty, Venvia is even shown in it too, strongly beside you.

After such cheering, you gather your people up, and set off over the desert. It takes much longer on ground, but the people are happy. A problem comes up with water, they do not have enough water mages for all the people. You dig a pit, and tell those of little fate to watch. You reach deep into your magik, and send it out into the ground, probing.
>>
>>34900107
Finally you find water, deep under the sands, your Arcane Energy flows into the well of water, becoming one with it. You then call the Arcane Energy back to you, the water erupts out of the earth, to the great cheers of all the people.

Gained [Water Manipulation lv1]!

Eventually you can see the mountain on the horizon, the people cheer once again.

[+Magikal armor], a silvery metal which these people seem to favor. It is lighter than any metal, but stronger than the toughest steel. You have been informed that it will grow with you, the enchantment ruins engraved in it confirm this. You have also been told that focusing your Arcane Energy into it will cause the armor to repair itself

done, but you should really learn to archive, its really easy.

just copy and paste the current thread number and thread title, and the tags from the last thread archived, and a short summary in the description.

it helps to have a tab with the archive interface page, and another tab with the already archived threads open at once.

Thall, Monkey. Same thing.
I'm surprised you didn't pick up on this CA

>you flipped through some pages of the Magik Princapica, something regarding the fiery destruction of some grand city or something

This would have triggered the page of notes I had on the Thall (you current followers, Morgu is one of them) and the city you hatched in! Too bad it's locked now!
