Greetings people of this fair island. Lots of rumors are being spread about how Elaralith didn't do this and how I did that, here is what happened. I would know because I was there from the beginning...
I was down in Bloodskull cave, taking off my armor, I had just finished training and I decided I could go to town and pick up some hammers and shovels so I can try my hand in blacksmithing. So I put on my hunting garb and carried no weapon.
It was really quite ironic that he only time I let down my guard and have no wand, no armor, no potions that Elaralith decides to attack Silverbrand. She met me where you have to jump throw the rocks to get to the other half of Bloodskull cave. She looked calmly, I knew I was at a grave disadvantage, but she didn't seem interested in me. She explored the cave and stated several times it was Ogre Cave. I was foolish and argued with her saying it was now Bloodskull cave and they would kill her if they came back. Seeing as I was the only person in the cave I knew I should start to leave, however, when I was about to leave she told me to tell the BLoodskulls what she as about to do...
She began casting red flames on the tables and chairs north of the entrance, I knew that I needed to get out of the cave because she was going to burn me alive as well, but I was too slow on acting, I pushed her so she would possibly lose her balance and I tried to run. But she caught me with several paralize spells and flames. I didn't have a chance, after the paralisis spell's power came off of my spirit I made my way to the cross on the surface.
Once I got there Elaralith was laughing of course and Aradhul was killing ogres. I assume that Aradhul was working with Elaralith the whole time, just as I had said many times, I can bet that Elaralith told Aradhul to kill the guards of the castle while she disbatched me, Aradul being the coward he was did as he was told.
Anyways, I was now on he surface with Elaralith and Aradhul and I had no weapon, only my hunting cloak and my hunting pants. I had some magic in me and some fight left in me so I struck at Elaralith casting ice flames upon her. I would have killed her then if it wasn't for Aradhul who struck me down. I was quickly revived and I attacked again, the blue flames raced from my fingers tips down to where Elaralith was. If I had kept my wits about me I would have taken advantage of her running away and gone into Bloodskull cave and gotten armor and potions. But I had energy surging through me so I lashed out again and again, but I was struck down then when my magic gave out of me. I didn't last long after that.
By then Fooser showed up. He didn't help Elaralith or Aradhul he just seemed to have wandered up there in search of me. However he did help me when i had colapsed from exhaustion, the ogres were coming after me and Fooser, both of us unharmed, I had barely any life and my mana wasn't coming back. All the while Elaralith was laughing and Aradhul was making snide remarks.
Anyways, I managed to get back into Bloodskull cave and get provisions by throwing the wench onto the ground and running as fast as my legs could take me. Once I had gotten all my battle equipment I headed to Trolls Bane. Here is a very important thing to note. Elaralith called both Bloodskull Cave and Silverbrand "Dens for evil" and that they needed to be destroyed.
So I ran to Trolls Bane, to Silverbrand because I knew she would attack when most of the Silverbrand guards were asleep, just like at Bloodskull cave. Anyways, I managed to beat Elaralith to Trolls bane, I found Kincent there and I told him of Aradhul's betrayal. I was in town for a few minutes when Elaralith came claiming I had ruthlessly attacked her and Aradhul.
Then a fight broke out. It involved myself, Galim, Kincent, Sess'th, Elaralith and Aradhul. Aradhul was mainly just there, he hid behind the wench Elaralith. Anyways, Galim was struck down quickly by the wench, I fought with my wand and tried to remember my ice bolts but all the beatings from my previous meeting with Elaralith had made me forget most of the things i had learned, so I was of little help.
Nevertheless, ELaralith prevailed once more.
After some more talking, Kincent yelled at Aradhul for betraying him while Aradhul hid behind Elaralith asking her to heal him quickly, more like begging her to heal him. Then Elaralith left the area (where were at the smithing place). I knew instantly she was out to burn SIlverbrand. I shouted that she was going to Silverbrand but I fear it fell upon deaf ears.
Elaralith beat us all to Silverbrand, by the time I got there she had ice flames built up at the gates in layers so no one could pass. We laid siege to the Dwarf town, there was a lot of us by then, Ashburg and Tharge came representing the Bloodskulls honoring the new alliance they have the dwarves.
Anyways, she began to burn all of Silverbrand with Ice flames and all of us who tried to get in died trying, so we were forced to wait outside til she came out. Then she did come out, she acted like it was the most natural thing in the world, she strutted out and hello and was making for the tavern but Tharge moved quickly and beat her to the exit of the tavern.
That is when all us mages attacked. I used my ice bolts, Tharge used lightning, Kincent had fire balls and an elf I had met only a few minutes prior to this had paralisis spells. We hammered on her, and when it seemed like she was going to die, she disappeared! ((logged)).
We were disapointed that she did that so we turned on her little servant Aradhul who was just outside of the tavern. He was begging Chuirion, a fire seer, to heal him. Chuirion did though I don't think he knew exactly what was going on. Then Aradhul bolted away, I tried to paralize him, but like I said I forgot most of my skill and couldn't do a thing.
Then Elaralith came back but I couldn't find her. That is when I colapsed of the heat.
Now I will rest in Trolls Bane for a few days, I hope none of you kill me for doing this, but I cannot travel up north until I am fully rested. Also, I want the dwarves to know that I came and helped Silverbrand for both Darlok and The Movement.

Truely,
Prince Grant Herion

A very intersting story Grant very intersting indeed. I will just clear up two things the first thing was that I came to the castle to kill ogres for money not knowing you or Elaralith were up there. Second I never beg.

Why I am not suprised by your story, Grant?

Possibly because I've read several like them.

(bad rp and logoffs seems to follow the trace of Elaralith everywhere.
This is the perfect example of a powerplayer that makes this game LESS fun to play for everyone, friend or enemy.

In another post where I am beeing sarcastic and claiming that there may be an evil anti-elaralith conspiracy going on as a reason for all the complaints, she replies, "yes thats probably it".

It's not possible to win or even intresting to roleplay versus an enemy that can suddenly dissapear and logoff, while oneself plays by the rules and stays to recieve potential death. "IF" this really pathetic lie about having a lagg is true, it would be good rp to intantly connect again to promote good rp, but I doubt this has ever happen, or ever will.)

((if one does not have a computer which can support alot of action, the player should be kind enough not to engage in activities which, if they were booted during, would not cause such a problem....in simple terms....if your computer sucks, dont go around causeing a bunch of crap because you know you will get booted and everyone will be mad at you))

My side of the story,
I read Grant cry for help on the walls,so i head for the east entrice to town.When I arrived a few other people were there Grant walked in and tol us what happened.A few short while later Elaralith walked in like nothing happen,followed by Aradhul with a smrik grin on his face.Know that a fight was about to break out,I told them to take it outside.See that it didn't I decied to join the fight to end it as fast as we could.Grant,had been weaken by the frist fight.The battle stop when Grant fell for the second time,I took that time to kick Aradhul out of the Fire Seer,and to regroup.Once Grant returned we had a stand off.Elaralith decied to make the frist move by heading to sliverbane.I followed with a few behind me,I was one of the frist down.I chased After them in to the passage were the blue flames had been casted.I went past the frist set of flames,Separateing my self form the others.Aradhul called me down there to fight him.I got as close as I could,which was nothing more than a trap the coward had set up.Once do there Elaralith casted blue flames behind me traping me in the passage.I waited for at lest some of the flames to die,i was almost through thye passage when Elaralith turned the whole passage a light and i died.Then after some more fight Elaralith move to Tavern,once up there we had here trap with Aradhul no where to be found.Grant cast ic bolts,i cast fire balls,and an elf cast paralisis spells.We almost had her beat when she disappered((logged) later we found Aradhul out side began for Chuirion to heal him.Chuirion torn by be a Fire Seer, and a Friend to Aradhul healed him and told him to run.I ask Chuirion for a duel one on one,he fled.

Some important points to add to your story, Grant, to make it truth:

In the ogre cave, you started hacking at me with your sword for no reason, and that resulted in your death.

All your deaths you caused yourself by randomly attacking Aradhul or my person immediately after your resurrection at the cross.

Neither Aradhul or myself tried to kill you we were only defending ourselves from your continued, random attacks.

We both expressed the opinion for you to stop attacking us continually.

All attacks were done by Grant. The actions of Aradhul and myself that resulted in Grant's death were in self-defence.

Hacked at you with no reason? He could probably guess what was coming, why were you up there in the first place? To cause trouble and he could easily see that

ya have attacked the cave, ya have burned everything. THIS IS an attack of ya. ya cannot believe that the peoples which home do ya burn don't fight ya.
