You raise your wine cup to your lips and gulp down a mouthful of the vaguely sweet, spiced wine. It's a deep red, and smells of cloves, honey, and cinnamon. The drink fills you with a pleasing warmth, but fails to drive away that ever present cold. It at least relegates the sensation to your limbs. Even if you don't necessarily find the cold unpleasant, it's almost soothing in fact, you still quite prefer the heat of the wine as it radiates through your gut.

Chryssa seems to have had wholly too much to drink. She's entwined an arm with yours and leans heavily against you, her head rested contentedly against your shoulder. Her eyes are closed and her breathing slow, you think she's probably asleep. Not that the fact she's asleep helps you any; the way she clings to you, you're pretty much stuck here. Still, the way her horn is digging into your side is a tad uncomfortable, even if she is sort of cute with her guard down like this.

You take another swallow of wine and cast your eyes across the room. Fulvia seems to have concluded her conversation with the Varistha, and is making her way towards Skull Kid, who's taking a break from dancing evidently to heap food onto a wooden plate. He seems to favor the naan bread and humus, but nobody could say he's going light on the spit-roasted lamb kebab. Meanwhile, the Varistha is making her way towards you. She doesn't look exactly pleased, she looks more confused than anything.

She comes to a stop in front of you and Chrys and opens her mouth, shutting it before she says anything. She rolls her jaw back and forth, as if chewing on what she wants to say. Rolling it around her mouth. Testing it. Eventually she raises her voice above the din of conversation, laughter, and music. “Did you know your friend plans to restore the Rhynian Empire? She just spent the last half hour interrogating me, she wanted to know where I found my armor.”

She rolls back one of her sleeves to reveal the sleek, form-fitting fabric of a Rhynian Technician's Suit. You've got a number of them in your possession at this very moment, odd that you didn't notice sooner. You suppose the bright glow of the enchanted suit must have simply blended in with the glow of her reserves, or perhaps you just weren't very attentive. It's even more curious that Fulvia did notice. You weren't aware of her being able to see vys.

We should try to be a bit placating. We (at least I think) don't want Fulvia, Profectus and Mortia to create a conquering empire with no morals that reclaims its old territory, continues its fucked experiments and declares war on our people, but we are fine with them trying to reclaim some of their lost past and bring back knowledge that disappeared with the Rhynians. We want to help them up to that point and want them to go no further.

I'm just throwing this out there, but I really do think we should make some effort to teach Zahak how to meditate.

First off, to the people worrying about him getting to strong, I just want to point out that we is a grandmaster now, and we know now how hard that is to reach. He's not going to be reaching GM level any time soon, and meanwhile his being able to do other stuff can go a long way towards keeping him alive.

That brings us to my biggest reason to teach him. In any fight he's going to have the biggest target on his head as a dragon, and at the same time, he can't wear any armor. If we don't at least teach him some metal stuff to toughen him up, he might not live to long with the way we're going. I'd also like to teach him some nature stuff as I think that will be a huge help in teaching him to read books to he can train himself, but metal and survivability comes first IMO.

What's everyone elses opinion on this?

>>36515116
I still think we should acknowledge the fact that a fully reformed Rhynian empire would be bad, but that we don't expect or want them to get that far.

>>36515140
>he might not live to long with the way we're going
.
He is a dragon.
A master of fire.
He can fly.
I don't think you understand how strong he is.
I do want to teach him to meditate. But I don't think you understand how strong he is exactly.

>>36515140
I definitely want to teach him to meditate. Even though he's a strong fire vatis he needs to learn more control and some other magic as well

>>36515140
Didn't we try to teach him the basics during our last interaction? Or was that just language and stuff?

I think we should teach him meditation. Probably metal like you said, since personal buffs would probably be the most intuitive thing for him (after fire). I don't see Zahak picking up water or nature any time soon.

>>36515154

I agree. After all, it's nice to have a goal, no matter how unlikely, but I'm not comfortable with any world spanning power that I'm not in charge of!

>>36514972
This is basically meaningless, fudging a roll for 50 exp is incredibly dumb. Just please stop bringing this up.

>>36515224
I agree, mostly especially when its combat.

>>36515198

It was just language. The reason I'm even bringing it up is because a couple of people seemed uneasy with the idea of our kid getting more powerful quick, so I wanted to see what the general opinion was.

>>36514976
I can feel the warp overtaking me

>>36514976

Soma could attempt to create photonic matter?

>>36515381

Metal + Dragons = airborne bodyslams? Cutting dudes as he fly's past?

Oh yeah Banished Quest! I've been waiting for this all week.
I had an idea of something neat we could try, which kinda hinges on what the maximum range of Beam is. Basically, assuming the range extends with our input of vys, it could potentially have a gigantic range unobstructed, which if we combine it fire manipulation in order to create a magnifying effect out of thin air, we could essentially make what amounts to a beam sniper rifle, which could be a pretty handy thing.

>>36515726
The problem would be the range and how it would be a drain on Mik's reserves, the longer/farther he'd have to power it then add the fire

>>36515726
We also have Chrys with the death mask as a long term option

>>36515188

I don't know how I missed this. I agree he's strong on the offense, but right now I don't see him being able to take nearly as much damage and anyone else in the group, because not only is he smaller then anyone else, but he also has no armor. When you add in the likelihood that anyone that actually sees a dragon in our group that we're fighting is probably going to target him first, I am worried.

>>36515829
>long term
meant long range

You shrug your shoulders and respond nonchalantly. “I knew. What of it? Everybody needs a goal, no matter how unrealistic that goal might be.”

The Varistha stares at you with like you're insane or something. Granted you are completely insane, but you don't think she knows that. You've kept a pretty tight lid on things since she came to the Temple and you don't think the Varistha told anyone else about the Entity living in your head.

Eventually she speaks up, apparently having gotten over her shock. “How can you just dismiss such a thing so casually? She wants to restore the Rhynian Empire!” She's careful to keep her voice low, presumably to avoid unnecessary attention. “This is serious! Our people warred with the Rhynians for millennia, if she were to reform the Empire it could mean nothing but suffering for our lands.”

You shake your head. “You don't actually think she'll manage it, do you? It's a monumental task, and she's but a single person. You ought not worry about it. Besides, she's a human. She'll probably only be kicking around for another forty or so years before passing onto whatever afterlife humans believe in.” A white lie, she'll probably outlive you and you're biologically immortal. “Even if she does manage to bring back some sort of polity resembling the former Rhynian Empire, it probably won't mean anything for El-Amin. Perhaps she'll restore some lost Rhynian technology and bring together the humans under one banner, but without knowledge of enchanting there's simply no way she'll manage to restore the Empire to its former glory.”

Your words seem to calm the Varistha, and you change the subject before she can voice further concern. “Would you mind telling me the story of that scar, Varistha?” It looks as if a Rhynian Lion caught her across the face with its claws.

(1/3)

>>36515726
>>36515805
I think using light manipulation and beam would have twice the range.
>>36515829
We need to replace her fucking armor.

She reaches up to run her fingers across the jagged tissue, smiling proudly. Rather the opposite of the reaction you were expecting. “I don't mind at all. It's an old war wound I'm quite proud of actually. Even my husband is quite taken with it. I was caught on the Eastern Border by a Kulkarn patrol. I caught their scout unawares and managed to end him, but not before he called for help. In the ensuing melee a swordsman caught me in the face with those strange clawed gloves they wear on their off hands. I flayed him alive for the insult, but the scar really is quite dashing. If anything I ought to have thanked the man.”

You're a little surprised, you hadn't taken her for a soldier. Nor had you thought her married. You suppose it makes sense for a woman of her age, but normally monks only marry within their order. You can't help but wonder if you've unknowingly met her husband or if she broke from tradition. “So you were a soldier, then?”

She shakes her head. “No, my husband and I were returning from a diplomatic mission to the Samrajya. I'm not sure you're aware, but they recently made that snake worship of theirs the official religion, and have began enforcing additional taxes on believers of the true faith. My husband was sent to reason with the Samraat, but it was an impossible task.”

So, wait. Is her husband the Amatya? Talk about marrying up, the Amatya serves as the official head of Pani's Church. He's considered infallible on doctrinal matters and some think he speaks with Pani's voice. If she's wedded to the High Priest, she's considerably more influential than you knew.

Your thoughts are interrupted when she speaks. “I suppose you'll be taking your leave of us soon, then?”
(2/3)

>>36515805
the fire is just to replicate the effect of a scope, but I mean if we could do it for 15-20 vys in order to just scrub someone important of the map, it's worth at least experimenting with right?

>>36515829
I'm thinking more like, horizon distance, not bow and arrow.

You nod. “Yes, I think I will head for El-Amin and then make my way towards the Pa'vala. I have business to attend to there.”

Her faces contorts itself into a worried expression. “The Pa'vala? Are you sure? I have lost many a friend to that dreaded place. It's near impossible to extract water from the air, there's simply none to be found. The sun beats down on the shifting, bottomless sands with an unending fury. It's cursed by Surya, I swear it.”

A shrug is all you can offer. “Normally I would never wish to visit the Pa'vala, but I've little choice in the matter.”

To her credit, she doesn't ask you what it is you must do in the Pa'vala. Anyone who feels the need to visit that barren land has good reason, certainly. “So when do you intend to leave?”

>>36515915
We won't get that +26 for assistance. It's probably not doable at our level without a shit ton of fire vatis. All we have to help us is our dragon, who doesn't even know how to meditate yet.

>>36515915
>Oooh... in the next few days, you suppose.
>>36515886
No we're reading the books then leaving since we have to return them.

>>36515886
>It's near impossible to extract water from the air
We should start extracting water from the air, turning it to ice, then stashing it in the cloak as we travel.

>>36515915

And how were you planning to make a DC of 140 in a few days exactly? I mean, we're good, but...

>“The Pa'vala? Are you sure? I have lost many a friend to that dreaded place. It's near impossible to extract water from the air, there's simply none to be found. The sun beats down on the shifting, bottomless sands with an unending fury. It's cursed by Surya, I swear it.”

Anyone has second thoughts on going to this place?
This does not seem like a good idea. Maybe we should go to some other place and come to Pa'vala once we are much more stronger.

>>36515886
>>Tomorrow morning, bright and early.

I still think, we should go to the jungle since we can get two things in one.(secret smithing techniques, plus a magic compass)
Also its on the way to the village.

>>36515966
Certainly possible that there's Fire GM here. There's certainly masters

We might want to check out the destroyed pirate/mercenaries island for some loot.

>>36515974
Or we could learn Create.

>>36515979
It's only DC 70

>>36515981
I want a fire GM first so that the fire does shit, or at least a nature master so that the desert becomes our bitch.

>>36515974

Anon, I like that idea!

>>36515979
DC was 70 for water.

Why would it double?

DCs only double if the meditations are attempted simultaneously.

>>36516000
This costs less Vys and gives us a source of water if we run out of Vys in the middle of the desert.

Since we are GM in water we should try to master nature quick since the added bonus should be big.

>>36516006

The first one was 70. Then Soma said that the next one would be 140. I'm guessing the one after that will be either 210 or 280. We're not getting GM in another element anytime soon.

>>36516059
Uhh no that is not what he said.

>>36516059
Nah m8. Attempting to grandmaster two things at once would double the DC. The DC depends mostly on the method you choose, but it will always be high. The fact you're a Grandmaster will only affect bonuses.

>>36515981
It was basically said to be the toughest place to go to and is certain death(by the last varisha himself, so that should give you an idea on how hard it is), yet people prefer it over the jungle that is an unknown and isn't known to be cursed or a death trap(i still think they went to live under water or they migrated).

>>36516059
False

After learning that getting to GM changes or personality I am taken aback by trying to reach another so soon. How about we listen to the advice of our master and the past Varistha and pace ourselves a little. Lets learn other metamagics and increase our mastery of other elements before trying to get to GM in fire.

>>36515886

>Tomorrow morning, bright and early.

>>36516059
From Ask.fm the direct question and quote is:
>Is attaining GM in two elements at the same time possible?
>I'm not going to say it's impossible, but I can't see you ever passing a DC of 140.

>>36516095
Nah fuck that, we going to a surya temple and grand mastering fire.

>>36516082
Being a GM already will probably make the next one easier huh?

>>36516086
>to be cursed or a death trap
The jungle is known as both of those.

>>36516082

Got it. I must have misunderstood the question. My bad.

I want GM in Fire because fuck this whole being cold all the time. We need to get our warmth back.

>>36516120
No its known to used to have a large civ that disappeared and that all those who ventured never returned.

>>36516112
Eventually not now.

>>36516112

I am not saying to put it on whole forever just lets get mastery on all elements and get more metamagic in between.

>>36516142
Shooting lighting from our hands is a GM technique anon, and we are soo close to getting it.

>>36516165
>nd we are soo close to getting it.

Are we?

>>36516086
we should rethink on what we ate going to do

though the jungle doesn't sound much beget

>>36516120
ay least there should be plenty of water in the jungle

>>36516138
What if we end up being hot and cold at the same time?

>>36516156
I'm game then, i thought you meant to ignore our elements completely.

>>36516141
No one returned. Not even the GMs and Experienced caravans of adventurers and those equiped to deal with it.

People return from Pavala all the time. We know of one person currently living in it.

>>36516141
Basically the same thing
>>36516138
He said himself that it was comfortable.

>>36515974
Yeah this, before we leave we should just bottle a stupidly high amount of water and stash it in the cloak.

>>36516208
Force Darzi and Chrys into a meditation group

>>36516198
True, but one has a reputation for death the other is just an unknown.
>>36516197
Who is the person living in it?
I remember the varisha telling us that all who tried to find the temple died.
>>36516189
True the jungle is almost as bad, but in my book the danger ranking is this.
Desert>Jungle=Elf warlord

>Mik: "Yes I wanna buy Ten Thousand empty Barrels"
>Merchant:"...."

>>36516208
>>36516233
Its better to do just ice, don't want our shit to get wet.

>>36516165
If you had some god damn patience you'd realize that waiting is a good idea.

>>36516251
>I remember the varisha telling us that all who tried to find the temple died.
dude he never said that.

But he did say that he knew of a guy who ventured into it to reach GM and all he knows is that he is still alive in there and is a GM.

>>36516187
Soma said we can try with master(high DC), but its doable with Grand master.

>>36516267
but, why can't we just some large jugs or water proof containers?

>>36516253

And that's where we end up buying them for a half eaten chicken and level up our silver tongue!

>>36516233
We shouldn't need a meditation group to make a ton of ice not that we are a grandmaster with our dick swinging past our knees. Still they could probably use the practice.
>>36516251
Being unknown is worse since you don't know what to prepare for. Some people come out of one, no one comes back from the other. Which sounds more dangerous?

>>36515974
Good plan. We should just do this while we travel.

>>36516280
>dude he never said that.
oops my bad.

He may have said that all who tried to find the temple died or failed. But he did not say all who ventured in to there died.

>>36516280
>Inbe4 the guy's been wrasslin' sandworms for the past 600 years.

>>36516191

Of course, I still want to get to grandmaster in other elements just not at the cost of our sanity and personality. So we should consider more carefully the method we use next time so we don't affect our personality in a undesirable direction.

>>36516308
Because we would have to get that shit when ice is free.

>>36516313
We wouldn't but have them group meditate on it would be usefull.

>>36516323
Not that hard. Our people cull the sand worms annually.

The Var Var could probably Solo them bitches with his hands behind his back.

>>36515974
Why not go to the ocean and freeze shit ton of water?

>>36516383
>freezes salt water to drink later on in the desert o' death.

>>36516403

>>36516383

>>36516424
>our old job was laboriously extracting salt from water
>implying we want to have to do that shit again

>>36516383
>>36516403
>>36516424
>>36516426
Better to extract it from the air as a group meditation with Darzi and Chrys. They would gain massive modifiers and no doubt pass easily.

Might even take more than one session

Am I the only one imagining going into the desert where there is no water, and where we're at our weakest, only to enter a fight and fling our cloak back while Ricky throws out a bunch of ice that we use to destroy shit? And most the creatures their have probably never even seen frozen water before too.

The question is, will they die from shock before they die from their wounds?

>>36516468
And by that I mean sit down and get a thousands of gallons of water. In Ice or liquid form.

Probably need at least 10,000 gallons of water minimum to have a chance at completion.

>>36516479
Most of their thought process will probably be along the lines of
>whats that stuff?
>ow that hurt
>imma kill you fucker

>>36516508
And by completion I mean complete the trip through Pavala.

You'd be surprised how much water we use. And extra is much much much better than too little

>>36516508
That would take weeks if we just extracted it from the air.

>>36516564
Well need it.

We'll need five times that if we bring any mounts.

>>36516564

At grandmaster level? Even if it did take a while, it's not like we don't have the time while we're traveling.

>>36516589
I think Anon means theres no good reason to only extract it from the air. we're right next to the goddam sea.

>>36516564
You underestimate GM.

You're still thinking like a Master.

>>36516564
That's why he said sea.

Store in a shit ton of salt water. Would be fine. We don't need to us and of gallons of fresh water.
and if we need to drink take out 10 gallons of salt water and purify it.

Still think we should read all of varvars notes before we leave. And focus on metal.

>>36516605
Oh I have no qualms about how we get it. Just that whatever we do we should make it a meditation with Chrys and Darzi

>>36516564
Man we can make an ice wall out of thin air strong enough to stop flying bikes cold in a second, this wont take any time at all. Especially if we do it continuously as we go.

>>36516536

More like,
>What is that stuff?
>why is it reshaping itself into a giant hand?
>why am I so cold as it's crushing the life out of me?

and as some last dying thoughts,
>why is it withdrawing and how is it fitting back in the cloak?

>>36516403
You literally can't freeze saltwater normally; the freezing process forces the dissolved salt out of the water and it just becomes normal ice and salt

>>36516625
Better to purify it before putting it in the cloak

We teach Zahak to create a Gaping Dragon illusion to fuck with Prof, is it awesome or what?

>>36516657
Then there's no excuse not to.

>>36516661
Why

>>36516652
They probably seen some shit what with living out in cursed ruins. They probably wont be that surprised.

>>36516683

Let's be honest here. Any time we have a chance to fuck with Prof, it's awesome be default!

>>36516693
So we don't have to take the time and effort to purify it afterwards.

Plus what if one of our less or non watermagically talented companions want some water

>>36516693
>>36516661
It seem the process of freezing saltwater removes the salt anyway.

You cock your head to the side for a moment in thought. “I'll leave tomorrow, bright and early. At dawn if possible. While I have enjoyed my time here I have accomplished all that I set out originally to accomplish. I have attained grandmastery of Water magic, I have actually relaxed, if only briefly, for the first time in the last... I suppose it must be approaching two months now that I have been on the road. Tell me, what is the date?”

She smirks. “I suppose it's understandable you've lost track of the days, you've been unconscious for more than a week. An exceptionally quick meditation, though quite slow considering the difficulty of the meditation. Regardless, it's the twenty-first of Bandali.”

To think, your birthday is less than three weeks away. You'll be turning twenty-seven. It's really remarkable how much you've progressed, considering your age. If you recall correctly the only one of your former fellow apprentices who has managed to keep pace is Rajani, and you're relatively certain you've surpassed her now that you've attained grandmastery. You may be the youngest Grandmaster in Pidjata, you're certainly the youngest you know of.

Your thoughts are yet again interrupted when the Varistha speaks. “If you'll excuse me, I'll believe I'll take my leave of you. I fancy a dance, and it seems unlikely you'll be able to oblige me.” She nods towards Chrys, who still slumbers quite soundly at your side, her grip on your arm iron-clad. “Congratulations on your achievement, Mikhael. I can only hope we'll see great things from you in the future.”

(1/2)

You smile politely and she departs, making her way towards the dance floor. The band seems to consist of an oud player, a sleepy looking old man on the drums, and someone playing a long, bulbous wind instrument that you don't recognize. You think it's an Eastern invention. Odd that you haven't seen Sister Balik since you told your story to the crowd at the inn, you were hoping for more Oud lessons.

>Wake Chrys, ask if she'd like to dance.
>Try to extricate yourself from her grip so you can retire for the night and read, or meditate.

or

We do not know enough about them to judge them accurately, hence the option for them being equal.
But to answer your question, for instance

>Mortia being a cutie autistic awkward beta who's embarrassed because she's not so good with men and we're teasing her
>Darzi being forward and flirty, giggling with us at Mortia's expense
Polygamy indeed
>>36517446
Anon, I think you might have to rethink your sexuality. Did you miss the scene with sweaty, cheerful Darzi?
>>36032256

>>36517469
Actually, muscle tightness isn't exactly the characteristic of a virgin.
I'm sure Chrys is the tightest person we've ever met though, and she's almost definitely a virgin.
But let's leave this conversation topic for now.

How about diving into Fulvia's mindscape in the near future so we can study them runes and have some info about her "father"

Well, that two hour nap turned out to be more longer than intended.

>>36517482

I can't imagine Darzi being as what >>36517488
theorized, although although submissive Mortia is appealing.

>>36517521
I'd much rather we just study the runes we have at hand, on our dozens of magical gear. Like our ring, you know, the thing that is incredibly important and we could easily study it after a quick fire meditation?
Also, that would take a long time, Fulvia has to max our her reserves for that. And I'm nto sure how she'd feel about it, anyway.

Soma, do different cultures have different habits about sex as well? Like how missionary is pretty much the default in most of the western world, I assume that's not the case in other places, is that right? Are these things taught to children when they learn about relationships? I realize the internet has robbed most of civilized society from first learning the traditions about this, if there were any in the first place.

>>36517943

don't you dare associate me with those plebs. I, have class good sir.

Its been more than an hour, so i'm guessing this sever failure doesn't end well at all.

You attempt to quietly extract yourself from Chryssa's grip, but find it quite firm. You stand, trying your best not to wake her in the process, and with a jerk manage to rip your arm free. For a moment, you think yourself victorious. Then you notice Chryssa listing to her side, her head angling towards the stone you were previously sitting on. You reach out, trying to catch her. Unfortunately you're nowhere near fast enough. Her head hits the stone with a heavy thud and she jolts awake, bolting upright.

She frowns slightly, although considering her usual range of expression that's a sign of severe displeasure from Chrys. She reaches on hand up to rub the spot where her head hit the stone, wincing in apparent pain as she touches the lump swiftly growing from her scalp. Her eyes focus on yours, and for a moment you feel an unfamiliar tightness in your chest. She looks so betrayed, like you just kicked her puppy or performed some similarly horrible act. For a moment you think you see a hint of wetness in her eyes, but it's gone in an instant.

She lurches to her feet, stumbles, and very nearly tips over again. Wow, she really has had far too much to drink. You catch her, sliding one arm around her midsection and hefting her to her feet. She shoves you weakly away while mumbling something to herself, but there isn't really any feeling in it. If she'd wanted to she could've flung you across the room, as is you're barely even unbalanced.

She mumbles something in that course language of hers, eventually throwing her arm over your shoulder and allowing you to help her out of the room. She manages to get her feet under her, but it's a gradual process. “Gods above, Chrys. How much did you drink tonight?” You have to raise your voice to be heard over the din of noise, but it seems to get across.

(1/3)

>>36518085
half an hour dude. calm down, im sure soma is taking his time, or someone finally put two silver ones though his head for killing off Var Var

She cast an icy look in your direction, but can't manage to hold it for more than a few seconds before she turns her attention to the floor and putting one foot in front of the other. “Your fault, kept sayin' things like... 'Ohh just one more cup, drinks on me'. Didn' even wanna drink. Wine's too sweet anyway. Then you... went and dropped my head on a rock. Hurts, you know.”

She leans into you, apparently a weak shove though it's an uncoordinated effort and amounts to little. You've managed to make it out of the Atrium and into the hallways. Several monks lay scattered about the halls, some with friends and some alone. Many with a bottle of wine or a cup in their hands. You kick back the few remaining dregs in your own cup before letting it fall to the stone floor, no longer your problem.

Chrys begins to speak again, slightly more coherent this time. “D'you even know the reason I want my husband dead? I have let myself remain shackled to the... fucking rat bastard for-” She turns her head to stare at you for a moment, shaking her head. “-I don't even remember, years. Didn't just decide this out of the blue.”

This is getting into dangerous territory, to put things lightly. You walk with a little more urgency towards your room, though this merely causes Chrys to stumble and further slows you down as you have to stop to let her catch her balance. She at least seems partially distracted by the world spinning, based on her semi-coherent muttering. Eventually she finds her feet, and the two of you resume walking. However, before you can reach the hall which leads to your rooms she grabs hold of you with surprising force and shoves you against the wall.
(2/3)

>>36518106
oh boy

You find yourself pinned, slouched against the wall. Chryssa's face seems uncomfortably close despite the height difference between the two of you, the sweet scent of spiced wine carrying heavily on her breath. You feel her chest pressing against your own, her heart beating rapidly. If you were in dangerous territory before, you've just stumbled into a death trap.

You try to slip out of her grip, but find yourself unable. Her hands grip your upper arms hard enough that you're in pain. Awkwardly, you clear your throat and try to think of something to say, anything to escape the situation. “Listen, Chrys. I know how you feel about me. Now hardly seems the time to discuss such matters. You're drunk as-!” You find yourself cut off when her lips press against yours in a clumsy, inexperienced, and unpleasantly forceful kiss. If there's one thing she does have going for her it's passion, surprising from someone as otherwise stoic as she.

Your teeth knock together, but she doesn't seem to mind. You do, it hurts. You struggle initially but against her overwhelming strength you accomplish little. You suppose you could cast a spell, but that may merely make the situation worse. Eventually she pulls away from you, breathing heavily. There's a nervous look in her eye, and she suddenly seems very small. Especially once you've drawn yourself to your full height.

You rub your bruised lips, healing them with a touch of magic. You consider just what it is you ought to do about this situation she's forced you into. Gods, but does she lack elegance. Seemed almost more like she was trying to wound you rather than kiss you.

I think outright saying that we'll be lovey dovey after we kill the guy is a bit too much right now guys, like seriously, she feels insecure, but we have to be honest about this, we need to talk about things, or get Darzi to meditate some info to her, yeah?

>>36518122
>>After you kill her husband, you'll teach her the proper way to go about things.

>>36518208
Yeah, I'll second not confirming anything but being gentle and talking about it.

>>36518122

>After you kill her husband, you'll teach her the proper way to go about things.

>>36518208
safest option

>>36518192

I agree. it's something we can talk about after he's dead, but acting like we're automatically going to get together after killing her husband is a little too black widow for me.

>>36518122
>After you kill her husband, you'll teach her the proper way to go about things.

>>36518220
Thats what the lets not talk about this guys want, but it seems people want to take advantage of a drunk chrys.

>>36518232
I definitely don't want to take advantage of her now, especially since we were the ones to get her drunk in the first place.

Seriously guys lets kill the husband as soon as possible so we can deal with this as soon and mature as possible. No matter what result we are looking we should get it do fast.

So the vote is pretty close, and we've undoubtedly got some samefagging goin' down.

Assuming there's no massive outpouring of displeasure, I'll write for "Let's not talk about this right now." with the implication that maybe after her husband is dead you'll see where things go.

>>36518249
plan was to get home first, then solo the trip out there

Oh, and if we do hook up with her, how long do you think it will take for us to get banished again?

>>36518232
I just don't wanna write off her feelings/actions

>>36518250
I'm game as long as we aren't going against her wishes.
>>36518259
Second word gets out, but now we will have a death squad after us.

>>36518250
that's what I wanted anyway

>>36518250
im okay with this outcome

>>36518250

Sounds good to me.

>>36518122
>You really don't have any interest in her, especially not after that horrid display. Rebuke her.
This would be so much fun.

>>36518250
Outpouring of displeasure

>>36518259
>banished again
The Shah put a death order for us, so i doubt we would survive.

>>36518281
It would be.

>>36518281
It's the frosty choice

>>36518122
No
>Kiss her the proper way.
option. Bhoooo!

>>36518271
Meant to say about us hooking up with either Chris or Morta(though we can go the polygamy route).

>>36518289
>>36518271
Wait when did he do this?
>>36518250
What are our laws for banishment agian?

>>36518259

If word of it got out. You can use nature magic to spy on people at the least.

There are GM's in nature magic, right? or master.

>>36518332
>Wait when did he do this?
Didn't but will certainly if words get out of us bangin' a non Samjan.

>What are our laws for banishment agian?
Race mixing is absolutely haram, even though a lot of people are secretly all other dem human/elf/xyz poontangs

>>36518357
GM, yes, masters, also yes.

>>36518367
>implying that cock slave elves, and retarded humans are in any way related to us.

>>36518380

Rephrase that, I mean in the temple that we are currently staying at.

>>36518411
Yes.

Wonder what would happens if Mik gets trial'd and goes "I'm using illusions to make her look like a dragon when I bang her, pretty sure there's nothing in the rules about fucking dragons".
>This happens in the end

>>36518411
Several, plus we have a party member as well.

>>36518414
>>36518430

Haha.. voyeur mode on.

>>36518427
Actually, rules are "all not-Samja".
And just because she's illusioned to look like it, doesn't make her one.
>>36518475
I'd think it not proper for Nature vatis to spy on people doing stuff privately.

Is the site shitting itself for anyone else?

Soma, is the "Don't fuck not Samja" rule in place because racism+to keep Samja birth rates as high as possible?

>>36518507

Nah. It's just you.

>>36518516
It's to keep the blood pure.

Welp, I just managed to spray liquor all over my apartment.

Fun Fact: You can open a corked bottle without a corkscrew, if you're willing to spray the contents all over the place.

Anyway, back to writing.

>>36518555

Noice, celebrating something?
