SEPTEMBER 23, DAY ONE
Narrator: eldarion(king): you will have to forgive me for being somewhat cautious with so many of your kind around *looks at you*

Narrator: *justinian looks towards you as well*

Cimorene: *she smiles softly at him, inclining her head politely*  Indeed, my lord... forgive me for decieving you all.

Narrator: eldarion: very well.  you have cause me no trouble.  *eyes you carefully* and i am assuming that will not be causing me trouble?

Narrator: *justinian looks back at the king*

Narrator:: Marraent: sire she has done us nothing but good.

Cimorene: I only cause trouble to those who are evil, my lord, and you are not evil. 

Narrator: eldarion: *to marraent* hush captain.  let her answer herself.

Narrator: eldarion: *to you* most certainly *and with a smile and wink*.  Very well then you are free to walk about.  I believe Oromic the red wishes to speak with you.

Cimorene: *she bows deeply and hurries over to Oromic, going down on one knee before him*  Oromic... forgive my deceit of character.

Narrator: out of character: laura he is not in the room;-)

Narrator: out of character: just you guys and the king and my guards!  lol, but ya that's it

Cimorene: (oops.  Put out of chacacter stuff like this, k?)

Narrator: (done)

Cimorene: (lovely)

Narrator: (so try again)

Cimorene: *she bows deeply to the kind and Justinian then says softly*  Where can I find him?

Narrator: (you're playing justinian?)

Cimorene: (no.... reposting)

Cimorene: (King and Justinian)

Narrator: (ah cool)

Cimorene: (lol.... we're getting this, right?)

Narrator: (ya, once you're on your own we're fine)

Narrator: eldarion: if there is no other business?  *eyes the group apprasingly and with penetrating eyes*

Narrator: *no-one responds*

Narrator: *marraent looks to the king.  eldarion nods to him*

Cimorene: *she merely stands there, awaiting her answer*

Narrator: *eldarion looks over you all once more expectantly*

Cimorene: My Lord, if I may speak again?

Narrator: eldarion: you are all free to go.  please enjoy the city

Narrator: eldarion: *motions to you* come here child

Narrator: *the two men leave*

Narrator: *belegar stands at the door looking after you from the distance*

Cimorene: *she moves over to him, her voice dropping slightly*  I would very much appreciate it if you would not flaunt my status.  One of my other companions convinced someone once that I was a purple fairy and that I would eat their souls... *she shivers*  I prefer my actions to speak for me rather than words

Narrator: eldarion: I will do no such thing, yes.  Besides you there are two other *Voice drops* wizards *winks* in the city and it frankly has some of my guardsmen worried that something is not right.  *eyes you intensely* Is there somethng wrong I should be aware of?

Cimorene: *she smiles at him, then makes a Charm test*

Narrator: (lol just try missy!)

Cimorene: (2d6 plus my skill, yes?)

Narrator: (correct and add in your attribute modifier)

Narrator: (unless it's already in on the sheet of course)

Cimorene: (19)

Cimorene: (of course it is)

Narrator: (making opposed check)

Narrator: (k, go on)

Cimorene: There is nothing that I known of that would be of import to you, my lord

Cimorene: (*that I know)

Narrator: (got it)

Narrator: eldarion: Is there now?  *unblinkingly gazing at you and dropping to a low low whisper* Then what was that aura around your brother?

Cimorene: Aura, my lord?  *she cocks her head to the side, as if puzzled*

Narrator: eldarion: *voice returning to normal level* Please madam do not take me for an uneducated man.  I am my fathers son *these words are spoken slowly and clearly and with force* (make a willpower)

Cimorene: (11)

Narrator: *you can absolutely and clearly interpret he see's right through you and is implying he is as sharp as Aragorn himself*

Narrator: *and he is somewhat intimidating all the sudden but in a kingly way*

Narrator: *eldarion looks at you expectatly*

Cimorene: *she grins a little*  Forgive me, my lord.  I have not forgotten your lineage.  My brother's secrets are his to keep, not mine.  His aura is of no danger to you, but rather to himself.

Narrator: eldarion: *with a wistful look* it is a sad state of affairs when a trusted servant of this kingdom has such a secret from his king.  *normal again* Very well I shall take it up with Belegar himself. 

Cimorene: (*winces*)

Narrator: eldarion: now was there something else you wanted?

Cimorene: *she bows again, then says, a trifle urgently*  My lord, the wizards?

Narrator: eldarion: ah yes!  I have lost my place *winks*.  They are Pouring over old scrolls and books in the libraries

Cimorene: May I?

Narrator: eldarion: I can have a man show you the way if you like.

Cimorene: *she nods quickly before smiling and bowing again*

Narrator: *belegar is still at the doorway*

Cimorene: *she casts an apologetic glance at her brother as she hurries towards the library*

Narrator: eldarion: *to guard* ipal.  Show our guest *points to you* the way to our latest visitors won't you?

Narrator: *ipal nods and follows you*

Narrator: eldarion: *to you* was that all?

Cimorene: *is already gone*

Narrator: *belegar looks confused*

Narrator: *belegar follows with ipal too*

Narrator: (laura does your character actually know where this is?)

Cimorene: (no, sorry)

Narrator: (lol)

Cimorene: (too eager)

Narrator: (i know)

Narrator: *ipal is a man of average tallness in average gondorian armor like belegars it is boasting of it's white tree*

Narrator: ipal: *to you* madam did you need my services?

Narrator: *belegar is next to you now*

Cimorene: *she nods*  Lead on, man, lead on!

Narrator: (lol)

Narrator: *ipal turns immediately and leads you on*

Narrator: *you are led through a maze of the white city until eventually you arrive in what you could picture as the place gandalf visited in FOTR when he was reading up on the ring*

Narrator: *in the small space are Oromic the red and Ulrich the green and you and belegar*

Narrator: ipal: *to you* did you need anything else madam?

Cimorene: *she shakes her head at the man before hurrying over to the two elder wizards.  She goes down on one knee and bows her head before them*  Oromic.  Ulrich.

Narrator: *ipal leaves swiftly*

Narrator: *Oromic looks somewhat more mature than the last time you saw him, it has been almost 4 months since you last saw him but his beard is no longer as long as a mans but something of an elder man, yet he still appears in his late 30's and early 40's*

Narrator: oromic: to you *with a childlike smile* rise child there is no need for such an action

Narrator: *ulrich just watches on as does Belegar*

Cimorene: *she rises quickly and grips their hands in a friendly manner*  Please forgive me for decieving you, my lord.  I did not mean to mislead you about my true form.

Narrator: *ulrich seems somewhat shocked*

Narrator: oromic: tell me, *in a more suitable tone* why the charade Cimorene(butchered spelling)? 

Cimorene: (not at all)

Narrator: (oh cool then)

Cimorene: I swore never to use my magic again, my lord, after the War of the Ring against Sauron.

Narrator: *the word "sauron" sends an intangible shiver down everyonese spines*

Narrator: oromic: ah i see now.  so much pain and death could lead one to a more reclusive life.  *looks into you* but it is those of us with our task that must go on and finish it

Cimorene: *she raises his eyes to his*  And what is my task, Oromic?

Narrator: oromic: didn't you hear me months ago *lauging* i am to bring all of our kind home to valinor.  I am to do so one way or another.

Narrator: oromic: *more appropriate now* and our brothers and sisters have the same duty.  our seperation as an order has gone on for long enough.  we must unite and then depart

Cimorene: *she stands, a little afraid now*  All of us?

Narrator: oromic: *to you* yes indeed.  most definetly all of the remaining 5 must go and the rest will be judged accordingly when the time comes.

Narrator: *belegar looks on and occasionally looks at you*

Narrator: *ulrich is looking at oromic*

Cimorene: Where does the Staff of Gandalf the Grey fit into this plan?

Narrator: oromic: *smiles* plan eh?  *laughs* I wasn't aware that I was a great leader now.  *serious again* the staff is a relic of his that cannot be left in this land for fear of mischeif being done with it.  *looks to belegar quickly then you*

Cimorene: Along with many other things, my lord.  Belegar... please tell Oromic of your plight.

Narrator: *belegar looks to you in a serious manner* there is nothing to tell

Narrator: oromic: *puts up his hands sumbissivly* that is not the mischeif i was refering too.  but who knows what could be done with it if it were in the wrong hands

Narrator: oromic: but thankfully that is all taken care of now *looks to you* you did bring it with you did you not?

Cimorene: *she nods*  We retrieved it, but I must ask.  Why did you simply not fetch it yourself?

Narrator: oromic: the answer is simple; i have been here trying to find the wearabouts of the others that must be found.  also as i've told you before, my time here is short and even i do not know when it will be up.  my tasks are long in number and i am too few to complete them all 

Cimorene: (Did we put the staff in the vault?)

Narrator: oromic: i was informed of their being others of the order who would help me and more still that would. you *looks to you and belegar and ulrich* are a fulfillment of that

Narrator: (yes)

Cimorene: The staff is safely in the custody of the king, my lord. 

Cimorene: (yikes, thought I pushed send)

Narrator: oromic: *smiles* excellent.  then i can safely retrieve it later.  there is much more to do  yet still

Narrator: (it's cool)

Cimorene: *she nods*  Indeed.

Narrator: oromic: as one of the order, would you be willing to do something more for me?

Cimorene: *finally showing weakness, she turns and looks at her brother, hey eyes questioning*

Cimorene: (don't you have to leave in two minutes?)

Narrator: (END)
