" I have a better idea for you" She says and paralises him, and begins to move him to the window, she takes her staff from a wardrobe in to room, and hits him hard in the backside with it, over and over shouting angrily, and then she walks down stairs and begins to unlock all the womens cells, " Go upstairs, and have some revenge on the man by the window" She tells them, and she goes over to Sevious, and begins to treat his wounds. "Wake up Sevious come on, don't die on my now, not after all this." She says and ribs off the bottom of her robe and wraps it round his head, and she kisses him, " Wake up Sevious, please wake up."

In Sevious' concussion, he hears a distant voice, "Wake up Sevious, please wake up." He feels pain shoot through his body from his head. His heart throbs to pump blood to the area where he is loosing it. His eyes still don't move. Sevious slowly begins to hear her voice get more distant and the same vision comes into his mind. Kalamon stands before him again...and again he slashes his sword at someone as Sevious runs in the way to protect someone. His eyes slightly open and see's Moathia's face. He slightly smiles and falls back into shock from his deep pain. What manages to come out of his lips are,"I love you." His words ring through his head over and over. They do this until they are barely audible. He turns into a sleep for a while in Moathia's arms. Ten minutes after that he comes back around. His eyes open again but widely this time aware of his surroundings....

Moathia takes a deep breath, after ten minuets of the most fear in her life, " Thank the gods" She mutters, and calls down to the nights "Come here, and help me get him back to the castle. They come upstairs, and choose to ignore the women beating the living hell out of the man, and help Moathia carry Sevious back to the castle.

Right before they lift him up he looks at Moathia. "Where...where will you be?", he asks quietly in just a loud enough voice for her to hear. The knights wait for her to respond. He sits there with the pain lessening in his head with his glowing blue eyes staring up into her green eyes.

" I'll be with you, don't worry, lets just get you better, I'll stay with you, all the time, I promise, now lets hurry and get to the castle, so a professional healer can help you." She says and continues to walk along beside him.

The knights carry him up into the castle through the night. The storm clouds coming in from the sea block most of the view of the night sky over the ocean. They take him into the room from which he has waken up that morning. There they set him down and walk out. A few minutes later a mage walks in with some potions and pulls out some scrolls from his pocket. He reads them slowly and gazes over at Moathia. "Excuse me miss. But why are you in here? He is in danger. There's no room for a stranger he doesn't know to be in here...if you're a maid I suggest you to go back to your work.", the old wizard says as he begins to brew a few potions and he pulls out his wand and starts to enchant it. He strokes his white beard and continues his work glancing over at Moathia.

" I'm a very good friend of his actually, and I made your job a little easier, I am a priestess of Elara." She says and walks over to the chest from the morning, and pulls out some fresh clothes, and goes behind a curtain, and gets changed, before walking back out, and sitting on a chair next to the bed, and begins to fix her hair, the points of her ears can be seen while she is doing this, and she decides that when he wakes up, she is going to have a bath, so she can wash her hair, but for now she just lets it hang down to her waist lenght.

Sevious Helios · Post by **Sevious Helios** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 2:21 am

The mage frowns at her. "As you say...you must be a really good friend of his to be dressed like that...", the mage says shaking his head. He finishes the potion and puts it up to Sevious' mouth. He pours it into his mouth and rubs his throat causing him to swallow it. He puts his hand up to Sevious head and murmers some words. "That should numb his pain. Lady...make sure the cloth on his head stays there until a clot is formed at least. For if he loses any more blood he may go into a comma. He will wake up around dawn tommorow. If you ware going to be watching him I suggest you stay here and do so until he does wake up at least. Now I must leave. Good night to you m'am.", the wizard says picking up his things and walking out.

Sevious drops the Wrym's tooth from which he had grabbed before the huge man brought Sevious up against the footing of the bed. He begins to glow a light blue all over his body, but then it disappears again. Sevious looks over at Moathia and slightly smiles. "I...came up with something...I never got to tell you...", Sevious says smiling at her. "Would...you like to hear it?", he says coughing a little as he lays on the bed.

Moathia · Post by **Moathia** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 2:27 am

Moathia takes his hand, and nods, " Ok, tell me."

"It's a poem...I guess you could say...I thought it up before I left to the North...here it goes...", Sevious says trying to remember the exact words. He opens his mouth and begins to speak,"If you dream of me like I dream of you...In a place that's warm and dry...In a place where I can feel the beating of your heart....Remembering your touch, your kiss....your warm embrace....I'll find my way back to you....If you'll be waiting..." Sevious stops when he is done and waits to see Moathia's reactions as he holds her hand back. "Perhaps those words...will have some meaning in the future...", Sevious says...

Moathia · Post by **Moathia** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 2:34 am

Moathia smiles at him, and bends over to kisses him and whispers into his ear "I love you, now try and get some sleep, you'll feel better in the morning. I'll still be here, when you wake up." she kisses him again, and keeps a hold of his hand.

Sevious Helios · Post by **Sevious Helios** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 2:36 am

Sevious slowly nods and looks at her eyes one last time. He closes his eyes and slowly drifts off into a sleep dreaming about him and her for the first time in a while instead of Kalamon. He sleeps silently without making a sound.

Moathia · Post by **Moathia** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 2:42 am

Moathia smiles, at him, and tightens the cloth around his head, and slips into the bed next to him, still holding his hand, and she drifts into sleep beside him.

Xantam. · Post by **Xantam.** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 2:58 am

Sometime earlier

Xantam leads Boremier up to the rooftops, where an elaborate system of planks from rooftop to rooftop are placed. "Folloew me" Xantam leads Boremier around to the house. Loud yells and screams are heard. "What is that?" Asks Xantam. "I dont know, is that the house we are heading to?" "Yep, whats going on over there". Xantam and Boremier hurry over, to see a human and elf running out into the alleys. "Helios!" yells Boremier. "Are those your friends?" Asks Xantam "Yes they are, I think they are heading back to the castle" "Oh... well... i guess i will see you around then" Boremier hears this and says "Well, you did help me out, how about you come along, we could use some warriors for the battle that is coming" Xantam thinks "Battle you say? Sounds interesting, lets go, I know the way"

Present Time

Xantam and Boremier scale the rooftops when they run into a group of men on one of the buildings. "Rrrg, who are ye?" asks one of the men "Us? We are no one, we will just be passing by" replies Xantam, and they head to the next plank "Wait just one minute there son. I know you, your one of them scum from the ironmen" Xantam turns around and loks at the man "Scum am I?" Xantam steps forward, but Boremier puts his hand on his shoulder and says "Cmon Xantam, this isnt the time we have to hurry" Xantam looks at Boremier "Ok" Xantam and Boremier continue walking and one of the men on the roof top goes to a corner and pulls a lever and say "Your bastard gangmembers killed my son! now you pay!" The rooftop opens but Xantam jumps out of the way and Boremier falls into a cage and the floors close again. "oh shi..." Xantam quickly jumps off the building and runs around front.

Boremier lays in the cage. He gets up and he hears two men mumbling... he can only make out some words "Is that him..?" "I thought... Lizardmen but .... human... proceed..." one of the men turn and lift another cage, and a four legged creature comes out, nothing Boremier had seen before.

Xantam runs up the stairs only to find a room full of men. "Who are..." befoer he has time to finish his sentence he is on the ground. Xantam twirls his staff over his head and holds it in front of him preparing for battle. All the men get up, some leave, some roll up there sleeves. Xantam runs at them shoving his staff into the ground, flying on his staff kicks one of the men through a wall. He gets up and one of the men run at him and give him a right hook in the face. In one motion he flips up and knocks down 3 more men. Takeing the chance he runs to the stairs and goes to the next floor.

Boremier looks at the creature and takes out his sword and shields. The creature jumps at him knocking him over onto the floor, the creature sinks his teeth into Boremiers neck. Boremier screams with pain.

Xantam heres the screams and hurry up. When he reaches the floor he sees the creature on top of Boremier and he runs to teh cage, and the operators run and yell "You cant defeat the Gorgeth!" Xantam turns to the cage and finds a lever and pulls it down. The cage door opens and he runs in. Xantam realizes that his staff is no use against the creature... he would need a blade. Xantam looks down and picks up boremier sword, he thrusts it into the creature, the creature screams and get up. The creature looks at Xantam then back to Boremier. The creature goes back to Boremier, him being unarmed. Xantam throws the sword to Boremier and he picks up his staff. Boremier gets the sword and runs around to Xantam. "Jump!" yells Xantam. Boremier in confusion does what he says, Xantam position his staff under Boremier and fling him into the air "Stab him in the back! He has no cover there!" Boremier lands on the large beasts back and lifts his sword and thrusts it into his back. The beasts yells and falls to the ground.. lifeless. Boremier then falls the ground and grabs his neck "aghh my neck!" Xantam picks him up and hurries to the castle.

A few minutes later...

Xantam runs into the castle and recalls the name boremier shouted out when he saw his friends " Help, this man is hurt, he needs help do you have a healer here?" A man in the room runs over "Yes we do, I will be right back." the man leaves the room. Boremier groans painfully. Xantam lays Boremier down and looks around the room he is in "Hmmm i wonder where his friends are... can I find them myself... nah, i'll do it the easy way... SEVIOUS!"

Sevious Helios · Post by **Sevious Helios** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 3:50 pm

Sevious slowly wakes up in his bed next to Moathia with his arm around her body. He slowly shakes his slightly aching head. He slowly lays back down not feeling like getting up. He stares at the canapy of the bed and slowly drifts off into thought. Some thoughts come into his mind again of the battle and then a mixture of pain. Not pain as in physical but emotional. Soon after he peers out the window and sees several birds fly by doing their normal chirping in the morning. The sun slightly shines through this day for the storms draws closer than it was the day before. Sevious takes a glimpse to the side of the bed on the floor and sees the Wrym's tooth lieing there by itself. He rubs his head and lets out a little groan and slowly closes his eyes slightly.

A man runs quickly down to Boremier and Xantam. "Hush! The king is still sleeping and the one you seek that is called Sevious is rather injured as well. He is asleep and he needs his rest. If you want to meet him then do so later today. You must wait. Now let's treat to his neck. I got the cloth and this potion our master healer made. He wasn't able to come because he is busy with others.", the man says. He pulls out a orangish potion and tilts the bottle onto the cloth. He takes the part of the cloth and puts it up to Boremier's neck and presses on it. "This will and is giving you a stinging pain. But it'll seal the wound and at the minimum form a clot. It will also cause your skin the heal faster than normal. So hold your breath and suck up the pain.", the man says holding the cloth there in place.

Xantam. · Post by **Xantam.** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 3:53 pm

"Heh, ok sorry" Xantam turns to the man "Is there a place for him to rest, this isnt really the best spot..."

Armil Darken · Post by **Armil Darken** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 5:37 pm

Armil walks up to the castle and asks the gaurds abour Sevious, learning about him resting he leaves a message for sevious to seek him out at the inn, and goes to his room in the inn and takes ashort nap.

Boremier · Post by **Boremier** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 8:58 pm

Boremier awakes the next day in bed. Boremier gets up and dressed he stops a man walking past and asks him if there is anyone here named Sevious , Moathia or Myers.

Sevious Helios · Post by **Sevious Helios** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 9:03 pm

A man walks up to Xantam and Boremier after being called over. "There is two people here of those names. Moathia and Sevious area asleep elsewhere in a room. And I have no idea who this myers could be.", the man says as he goes back to his chores. The guards with the message for Sevious to go see Armil walks back to the king's chambers and waits there until Sevious comes out.

Sevious Helios · Post by **Sevious Helios** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 9:30 pm

A lightly armored man in leather armor rides quickly through town. His horse races at full speed towards the castle. The black haired man peers down around at the people hurrying out of his way so they don't get ran over. The horse stops to a halt when they reach the bridge into the courtyard. He hops off and runs towards the castle and busts inside. He runs up into the royal chambers and bows before King Sirean. "My lord...over in the former territory of Masmaturia a section of orcaens of about two thousand are marching towards it. They are coming to slay us humans. The people there need to retreat and they don't have a leader to bring them here to safety. We need someone to do such", the messenger says trying to take in deep breaths of air. The mans voice echoes into the hall where Boremier and Xantam are. "Well...all my men are preparing for the battle ahead....we can't do anything unless someone shows up to do so....", the king says trailing off. Boremier and Xantam also overhear this remark.

Boremier · Post by **Boremier** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 9:38 pm

The word keeps ecoing in Boremiers head "masmaturia" he looks absolutely stunned he thinks to himself "I did'nt know there was a new population was in Masmaturia!"

Boremier · Post by **Boremier** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 9:46 pm

Boremier decided past his sadness at not knowing the kingdom was partially rebuilt to go to masmaturia and aid his old home. He charges into the kings room and says "I am a son of the great Rainsder Magnus and I shall goto my old home to aid them!"

Sevious Helios · Post by **Sevious Helios** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 9:46 pm

"Do you have any men to lead the people here?", the scout asks. "No...no free men. The people may be doomed of they aren't helped but I can not do anything to help.", King Sirean says. "Then who will help?", the scout asks as he looks around at the knights sitting around. Boremier walks forward and tells them that he will help. King Sirean looks up at him. "Ah so you will? Rainsder Magnus...I heard he was the general of the armies of Masmaturia thirteen years ago...well go ahead Boremier Son of Rainser Magnus. It is bestowed upon you the duty of bringing your people back here safely from Kalamon's armies. This is a great task upon you. Do it with pride and hope.", King Sirean says. The scout walks up to Boremier and bows. "Thank you. We will have to ride swiftly. Let's go!", the scout says. The scout runs out into the courtyard and hops on his horse preparing to leave....

Moathia · Post by **Moathia** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 9:58 pm

Moathia wakes up and see's Sevious is awake, she smiles "Good morning, how are you feeling today?" she asks with a little concern in her voice.

Boremier · Post by **Boremier** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 10:00 pm

Boremier nods and says to Xantam "Would you come with me? I could need a friend with me as myers if not here at the moment". Boremier turns and follows the scount and lets Xantam follow if he wishes to.

Sevious Helios · Post by **Sevious Helios** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 10:01 pm

Sevious peers over to her with his eyes flaring up more than normal. It's like a light is flowing from them as a light does from a flame. He slowly blinks as her words fills his ears. "I'm...fine....", he says in a shakey voice. He holds his head as a tear slowly flows down his face. He looks back over at the sword on the ground and then at his chest. 'Should I do it?', he asks himself in his head staring at the sword.

Xantam. · Post by **Xantam.** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 10:03 pm

Xantam looks at Boremier, with a slightly surprised face "Hmmm well, dont see how it could hurt, plus i get to fight some more" Xantam lifts his staff from the ground "Alright! Lets go"

Boremier · Post by **Boremier** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 10:03 pm

Myers walks into the castle and thinks to herself "Great there's no-one here that I know!"

Moathia · Post by **Moathia** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 10:04 pm

" Do what? Sevious whats wrong, your eyes, are diffrent today. Are you sure your ok?" She asks, and kisses him softly.

Sevious Helios · Post by **Sevious Helios** » Fri Jun 06, 2003 10:05 pm

The scout rides off full force into the west of town towards the old territory of Masmaturia. He passes several towns with people in them and alongside the forest and over some rough mountain areas. What shines from the sun through the cloud cover causes a bit of a blinding light causing the scout to shield his face from it. Soon he reaches the top of a hill. "Almost there...", he mumbles. He turns around to see if Boremier is there.
