DeathKnight

[color=crimson][b]Death Knight[/b]: ... ... What all am I agreeing to do with this deal? Death Knight slowly turned to Simikeil and stared at him silently, waiting for his reply. There was silence for a few moments, before Simikeil raised his gaze to his. They measured each other up for a few seconds, before Simikeil answered..[/color]

[color=crimson]Ken casually picked up one of the newer letters from the box, to see an black envolope with the return adress written in blood. Ken opened it to see a picture of Neil in a bar with two hot young teenage girls on either side of him, with his beer raised to the camera... Ken read the letter silently to himself.. [i]Dear Ken, HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAA YOU ARE STILL STUCK IN THERE SUCKER! HAHAHA! -Neil[/i] [b]Ken[/b]: ... ... ... Silently, Ken threw the letter behind him, and it floated to where the Tentacle of Gworp reached out and drug it into the dark depths of Gworp Land.. Ken picked up the next letter to see a plain white envolpe with stately, somewhat mature, cursive handwriting. He opened it silently, and began to read the note. [i]Dear Ken, BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAH I TRICKED YOU! HAHA! YOU ARE STILL STUCK IN THERE! I'M NOT! YOU SUCK, MOTHERF*CKER! HAHA! -Neil[/i] [b]Ken[/b]: .................................................................. Ken shoved the letter in his mouth and casually ate it, swallowing it whole. He reached into a [i]different[/i] box and pulled out a small package. He looked it over, curious, and pulled out his pocket knife to open it. As soon as it was open, he looked at the return address and sweatdropped. There was a small package of baked cookies, and a letter... [i]Dear Ken, Are you alright? Are you remembering to wear fresh underwear every day? How about brushing your teeth- Have you been keeping up with that? - Your concerned Mother[/i] [b]Ken[/b]: ...;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;[/color]

[color=crimson]Hehe. My apolgies old friend. On mine, your post is the last post on page 9- I thought my post had been the last on page 9. Let's say your post just happened.. Right now. Hehe. ^_^ Really sorry. --- As they stood next to each other, time slowly ticked by. It was still raining steadily, the drops of rain slowly sliding down the scars on Death Knight's armor. He turned to Simikeil and looked at him.. [b]Death Knight[/b]: ... [b]Simikeil[/b]: Mmm? [b]Death Knight[/b]: ... ... ... Death Knight cursed out loud and punched the ground as hard as he could, and silently continued the war that was wageing in his head about what to do. [b]Death Knight[/b]: ... ... What all would I have to do? Death Knight stood and regained his composure, looking Simikeil in the eye. He sneezed as some of the rain fell over his nose cavity, and shook his head, trying to shake it off. Before giving Simikeil a chance to answer, he interuppted, still argueing with himself in his head in the meantime. [b]Death Knight[/b]: Ugh... Damn it... I might. Tell me the conditions...[/color]

[color=crimson]Neil told me to add him into the RPG.. So I did.. *sticks tongue out* so there... --- [b]Death Knight[/b]: Hey... I wanted to come..... Damn it... Death Knight silently shook his head and looked down at Zelfoh, tapping her on the head. A loud snooze came out of her mouth- She was nearly out cold. Death Knight let out a low grumble, and plopped down next to her. [b]Death Knight[/b]: ... Ugh ... His eyes slowly dimmed intill you could see cleary into his eye sockets, regenerating his mana in a sleep-like state, waiting for Celestine's return..[/color]

[color=crimson][b]Ken[/b]: Nothing, Mini-Ken. Asuka was just er... concerned that with all the fighting something had gotten knocked out in there, so she guided me in and we checked it all out. [b]Mini-Ken[/b]: Oh.. Was everything ok? Cause I have a splitting headache... [b]Ken[/b]: Yea. Everything is fine.. you're prolly just dehydrated.. get some water. [b]Mini-Ken[/b]: Yea. Ok. I'll do that.. He slowly walked off, holind his little plushie head, and Ken glanced at Asuka and grinned. He sat down and breathed a long sigh of relief. [b]Ken[/b]: Well. That did beat sitting down all day.[/color]

[color=crimson][b]Death Knight[/b]: Ah. Wonderful. You are keeping track of Celestine as you sing, correct? [b]Tarlain[/b]: [i]Of course. I'm not idiotic.[/i] [b]Death Knight[/b]: ... No comment ... [b]Tarlain[/b]: [i]I heard that.[/i] [b]Death Knight[/b]: ... [/color]

[color=crimson][b]Ken[/b]: Alright. Enough fooling.. I think I found the portal... From behind him, the potatoe hit Ken in the buttock, sending him falling foreward through the portal. A few seconds later, Ken despretely climbed back up and looked to Asuka. [b]Ken[/b]: ASUKA! GET DOWN HERE! THIS IS THE PORTAL! The potato hit Ken again in the head, and he cursed as loud as he could at the potatoe, as more sentances began flying around about Mini-Ken hearing voices in his head. Asuka was awash in a sea of Sentances, and Ken despretely tried to see where she was..[/color]

[color=crimson][b]Death Knight[/b]: Better than nothing, I suppose.. [b]Tarlain[/b]: [i]We will just have to see..[/i] [b]Death Knight[/b]: I hate waiting, though. Gah. Sing another song or something. You'd make a good bard. The sound of feet drew both of their attention to an extremely tired Zelfoh. She was breathing heavily, and was drenched to the bone from the downpour. She bowed to her Masters, and sat down to rest. [b]Death Knight[/b]: How did the summoning practice go? Zelfoh pointed behind her as a small squad of Spartoi ran up behind her. There were 12 in all, and they bowed to the 2 wiser masters as well. Death Knight clapped sincerely, and dismieed the Spartoi from the area. [b]Death Knight[/b]: Very good. because of this weather, I'll test you tomorrow on your summoning. For now, get some sleep till morning. Zelfoh was already asleep, pyschically worn out from dragging souls to the surface, and mentally worn out from the mana required to enter hell itself. She dozed off, and Death Knight dropped a blanket on her from above. [b]Death Knight[/b]: ... ... ... I honestly have no patientence, its something that has been a weakpoint since I was a child... Tarlain. How long will this whole thing take till the Awakening?[/color]

[color=crimson][b]Ken[/b]: Two by four... Hmm hmm.. Ken mocked searched around for one, with a grin on his face as he went. He picked up a small stick and waved at her, tilting his head to the side playfully. [b]Ken[/b]: I think this is the best I can do. He stuck his tongue out at her, and walked back to her, holding her in his arms, as they watched the sun slowly set, even if it was accelerated because of the spell she had cast, it was still a wonderful sight...[/color]

[color=crimson][b]Death Knight[/b]: .... .... I dunno. If mere humans were slowly poisoning this world... ... Then really, how strong can it be? [b]Tarlain[/b]:[i]Humans were merely slowly poisoning it- Nothing Haddah, Me, or even you couldnt heal.[/i] [b]Death Knight[/b]: ... Mmm. Perhaps. I dont want to dwell on the future... or the past... [b]Tarlain[/b]: [i]Both of our lifes were dificult. No need to dwell on it so intensely...[/i] [b]Death Knight[/b]: But, when you have no way to die, what else can you do? [b]Tarlain[/b]: [i]You'll die someday... We all do... its how things work.[/i] [b]Death Knight[/b]: Aye. But I think my time is far off, at best. [b]Tarlain[/b]: [i]That may be- But all this will eventualyl end for you, Death Knight.[/i] [b]Death Knight[/b]: Somehow, I dont want to. I've been mildly amused being here again, watching Zelfoh and Celestine.. He listened as it began to pour down rain, washing his blood and dirt stained platemail armor off slowly, some of the stains too old to ever be removed by water..[/color]

[color=crimson][b]Ken[/b]: Crap. I need a light or something in here, so I can find the portal. Ken stumbled around, tripping and breaking things in Mini-Ken's head. Outside, Mini-Ken silently held his head- He had the oddest headache, and he decided to go get some Asprin after his long nap. [b]Ken[/b]: Mmm... Hey. Whats that over there? In giant capital 3d letters that were about 30 feet tall from Ken's perspective, the sentance 'Man my head hurts' Flew past them. Ken dove out of the way before it smashed him. Ken rolled over and a thousand of those large sentances were flying everywhere. [b]Ken[/b]: Are these all Mini-Ken's thoughts? One flew by reading, "What weird dreams..." follwed by "I shouldnt eat pizza before sleeping.." and then "Hmm. Where's Asuka? Or Ken? Odd...", thousands of those sentances were all flying around at once... [b]Asuka[/b]: This is SO weird! [b]Ken[/b]: Well. At least it isnt pitch black anymore... Now somewhere around here should be that portal I made... Look around for it Asuka... Asuka was just giggling as she sat on one of the sentances, as it flew around Mini-Ken's head. She screamed "WEEEEE" as it flew around like a roller coaster, and Ken could only hang his head low in sweatdropping fashion..[/color]

[color=crimson]Suddenly, darkness fell on the dream, as Mini-Ken looked around suddenly, confused. He ran one way, and back to the other way, as the real Ken and Asuka stared on in confusion. Suddenly, Mini-Ken screamed, as a giant evil Mini-Flash ate Dream Asuka alive, blood going everywhere. Mini-Ken began to sob at the loss of his mother, and screamed in fear as the giant Mini-Flash with the blood dripping down his chin chased after him. He finally lept a long distance away, turning around and raising his hand, ready to die fighting... Silently, Ken watched, curiousity brimming to the maximum.. [b]Ken[/b]: You know, this wouldnt make such a bad Alfred Hitchcock Movie.... Hmm.. [b]Asuka[/b]: Oh my GOSH! I got EATEN! >_>;; BY A GIANT PLUSHIE TOO! [b]Ken[/b]: ... ... Suddenly, Dream Ken jumped down with his sword pointed to the beast, some tears coming down his cheek as well. Mini-Ken jumped on his shoulder, murmering a spell, as Dream Ken raised his sword to the heavens.. and looked straight into the eyes of the evil fiendish Giant-Mini-Flash. [b]Dream Ken[/b]: .. I shall slay you in the name of Tori! [b]Mini-Ken[/b]: FOR MISS QUEEN! DIE! [b]Dream Neil[/b]: Dude... You need to get out more... [b]Dream Ken[/b]: Psh. And you dont, shroom boy? [b]Dream Neil[/b]: Hey. I dont take those little trips into acid world as much anymore... Dream Neil casually floated over Dream Ken with a cigarette in his mouth, staring at the giant beast. He floated down to his feet, and raised his hand, a small bright orb forming in the center of his palm. [b]Dream Neil[/b]: For... Hell. I'm not doing it for her...I just want to kill something... All three of them charged at Giant-Mini-Flash, Neil blasting him with a Ki blast twards Ken, who stabbed him in the heart, as Mini-Ken jumped down his throat and finished casting his spell, and Giant-Mini-Flash exploded from the inside out in a rain of bloody guts. As they were splattered by the remains, Dream Ken casually sat down, and wiped some guts from his eyebrow before looking over and Neil, who just shook his head. [b]Dream Ken[/b]: Oh I'm Singinnnnn in the rainnn... [b]Dream Neil[/b]: ... I am never... ever... hanging out with you again... [b]Mini-Ken[/b]: But miss queen... Mommy. >__>... Dream Ken and Neil nodded to each other, and Neil jumped high into the air unleashing a massive Ki blast, as Ken infused it with ressurection magic. A bright white light shone out as it exploded, sending everyone, including the real Ken and Asuka, flying backwards briefly. As the dust settled, Dream Asuka was laying on the ground, unconsious. Dream Ken stood up and placed his sword upon his shoulder, walking away slowly, Dream Neil following behind, singing a Heavy Metal song.. [b]Mini-Ken[/b]: MISS QUEEN! O_O Jesus Christ In Heaven Its a Miracle! [b]Dream Ken[/b]: ... Our work here is done, Agent X. Tis time to go create another miracle... [b]Dream Neil[/b]: Indeed, Agent K. Lets go- But first, i'm heading to Hot Topic and getting a new shirt... Ugh. Both of them put on sunglasses, Men in Black style, and walked away silently as Mini-Ken jumped for joy around Dream Asuka, The conversations of Dream Ken and Dream Neil becoming fainter as they walked away.. [b]Ken[/b]: Well that was a short dream. [b]Asuka[/b]: Awww... But it ended happily. ^_^ [b]Ken[/b]: Applaud my friends, for the act is over... Slowly, the dream began to fade, as another formed in Mini-Ken's mind to take it's place, Ken and Asuka waiting patiently in the dark void that happened between each dream...[/color]

[color=crimson][b]Death Knight[/b]: We cant just risk everything this blindly. You know what happens when mana stops flowing in a land- It dies beyond repair intill someone was powerful as Haddah reintiates the flow. He looked her in the eye and lowered his head, slowly shaking it. He turned, and began to walk away, before breifly stopping. [b]Death Knight[/b]: ... Alright. I trust you. He shrugged broadly, before the first drops of the rain began to fall, thunder rolling across heavens, making itself known to all in the immdiate area. Around 15 feet from Tarlain, Death Knight stopped and leaned against a tree that belonged to the Ancient forest. [b]Tarlain[/b]: [i]Why are you so concerened with the land when you are presumably the most bloodthirsty undead that most people meet?[/i] [b]Death Knight[/b]: If I knew better, I'd answer "because without the land there would be no one to hunt." But that would sound like folley... [b]Tarlain[/b] [i]Well? Why then?[/i] [b]Death Knight[/b]: ... I have no reason. Do you? All creatures have used the land, from using it for homes, to farming, to hunting the animals that graze off of it.. Just something someone needs to do... [b]Tarlain[/b]: [i]A somewhat satisfying answer, even if I dont believe you in entirty..[/i] Death Knight sneezed as silence fell on both of them, the pitter pattering of the rain being dwarfed by the thunder on occasion. Both of them silently kept track of Celestine via the mana, somewhat amused by her resounding pushes into the forest.. [b]Death Knight[/b]: Well.. whats your reason for helping her and the land? [/color]

[color=crimson]As Death Knight spoke, he paced, explaining to Zelfoh how to feel the skeleton rising from Hades, guiding it intill it finally broke through the surface, like someone rising up from the bottom of a lake. He spoke in a calm, patient manner, making sure his daughter understood what to do exactly- So that there would be no screw ups. Screwing up while summoning can become a very bad mistake, especially if you are dealing with beings from the beyond. Now, Zelfoh did as her father instructed. She placed her hand firmly upon the ground, and closed her eyes, seeking out a suitable soul to summon to be her helper. She flew threw hades in spirit, intill she found a lone warrior walking through the corridors alone. Her spirit reached out to the warrior, and he reached out to her. She helped him, and they both flew through the air together, heading straight up throught the gates of hell. Images flashed through her minds of the Necromancers of Lore who summoned these creatures to stop the persecution they got for their Dark Arts. Her mind filled with the knowledge of the warrior, his skills, his past, how he fights.. And she was overwhelmed. The warrior yelled outloud as he broke through the surface of the dirt, as a Spartoi. He slowly rose up, and slashed his Scimitar once for his Summoner, his new master. Zelfoh fell over exhausted from all that had just happened, beads of sweat forming on her brow. Slowly she propped up on one arm, and looked up at the Warrior she had summoned. It nodded to her, and waited for her command. [b]Death Knight[/b]: You see? That wasnt so hard, now was it. The trick is guiding several souls at once here, so that you can have your own small army to defend you. You two- You are dismissed intill another summoner calls on you. Both of the Spartois nodded, before their bones collapsed in a clamor onto the ground, a small wispy creature flying away from where their mouths had been. Silently, Death Knight turned to Zelfoh, whom was getting up. [b]Death Knight[/b]: The more you practice, the spirit form of you in Hell will be, and the more warriors you will be able to bring to the surface. Now, I want you to practice as much as you like- You have tasted the difficulty of it. In 48 hours, I will watch you summon again- I expect at least some improvement. Now, Choose a spot where you will practice, and begin whenever you wish. [b]Zelfoh[/b]: Father. Where does all the Mana in the world come from? He froze in his tracks, and silently pondered for a second. He turned to her, and looked her in the eye, raising his skeletal hand to his chin, he rubbed it a bit in thought, finally coming upon a decison. [b]Death Knight[/b]: Only God knows. Some believe [i]The Tree of Mana[/i], which was the tree Adam and Eve partook of in the Garden of Eden, provides the flow of mana to all. Others believe its a flow of souls between Heaven and Hell that provide us their power as they journey. Still others believe its the Planet- Some believe there are Gods that provide us with the Mana. Truely, I dont believe anyone will ever know. Its a power like no other, a power which can destroy and create worlds. I'm afraid that doesnt answer your question... But I would be wary of trying to find the source of Mana- As the power could warp you mentally and pyschically.. [b]Zelfoh[/b]: Where does the most Mana flow, father? Death Knight tapped his skull twice, and began to walk off.. [b]Death Knight[/b]: In all of us.. Zelfoh's head looked to the ground with a confused facial look as her wise father began the half-mile walk to the waterfall, speaking to himself in a low whisper, debating things with himself out loud. Zelfoh looked up at the sky, as the clouds rolled overhead, and silently wondered what would become of the Mana if Ryan continued destroying the land so viscously... --- To the east of Athenae, a large thunderstorm was brewing- Ominously casting a bright flash of lightning down once and awhile, for those that watched it for too long. It had been 5 minutes since Death Knight had begun walking, and he glanced over to the Thunder Storm casually, observing it's nature to see if it was natural or magical. It seemed to be natural enough, but you could never tell. Hopefully he would arrive back at the waterfall before it began to rain on him. His gaze reverted back to the path that cut through a large wilderness, full of small shrubs and trees. There were a few wild animals off in the distance, grazing, and keeping a cautious eye on the Skeletal being, but Death Knight paid no heed. He saw Tarlain in the distance, staring at the enterance to a dense forest that was a small distance from the waterfall. She was staring after something, and Death Knight noticed the immediate lack of Celestine anywhere. Silently, he continued on walking, keeping his heading to where he would walk into the immediate area of Tarlain..[/color]

[color=crimson][b]Death Knight[/b]: Are you ready to learn to raise the dead? [b]Zelfoh[/b]: Pardon? [b]Death Knight[/b]: ... Death Knight silently lowered himself to one knee, placing his palm on the ground. He spoke in a voice that echoed throughout the air, wrapping itself around the minds of all that heard it. Slowly, a skeleton with grey-silver bones began to break through the soil underneath the grass, lifting itself out of it's prison. It shook off the clods of wet soil that stuck to it's body, as a clear set of glowing aqua eyes appeared in it's skull. [b]Death Knight[/b]: Its called a Spartoi, an ultra-undead if you will. It has the power to collapse like it's died till it regenerates, and reform in an instant. Also, it comes with its own Scimitar, so its quite a nice choice for quick battles with monsters. [b]Zelfoh[/b]: That's amazing. [b]Death Knight[/b]: Not really. Its just a quicker way to summon a helper for you than a golem, but at least half as weak as golems. This would be my choice if you are out in the midst of a battle- While a Golem would be my choice if you can prepare for the battle first. [b]Zelfoh[/b]: Yes. I see your point. I would love to learn that. [b]Death Knight[/b]: Alright. First, Let's see if you could control a Spartoi. Concentrate on the Spartoi, and through your mind see it preforming whatever task you wish. Zelfoh tilted her head to the side, and then nodded, doing as he said. A few seconds past, and the Spartoi just stood there- Ready for a command. Suddenly, the Spartoi jumped into a stance, and kicked Death Knight firmly in the stomach, making him step back a bit. [b]Death Knight[/b]: Well. Thanks. [b]Zelfoh[/b]: Oh my goodness. o.o I'm sorry. Haha. [b]Death Knight[/b]: At least you can control it.. Now we have to work on the summoning part of the spell..[/color]

[color=crimson]Both of them plopped down, letting out a long breath, sweat dripping down their foreheads. Death Knight leaned down to the ground, feeling the dirt in his hand. [b]Death Knight[/b]: You could grow things so well here... My father was a farmer... If you weeded this... and tilled it a bit... you could grow anything... Even magical fruits... He got up and looked at Tarlain, and walked away silently, taking in the land silently. He hadnt really looked around at the beautiful place before, realizing it was alot like his rural farmhouse when he was a child. He remembered why he came here so much in his life.. Zelfoh silently jumped up, feeling her regenerative powers as a Succubus helping her recoup alot faster than Celestine. She stretched from side to side, and looked to Tarlain. [b]Zelfoh[/b]: I'm ready. [b]Tarlain[/b] [i]You are also not human. Wait for Celestine.[/i] [b]Zelfoh[/b]: Oh. Many pardons. I didnt mean it that way. ^_^;; [b]Celestine[/b]: Phew... Its no problem. [b]Tarlain[/b]: [i]Perhaps you two could avoid doing that again, or maybe warn Death Knight and I before you decide to unleash a shockwave on us.[/i] [b]Zelfoh[/b]: I knew I could do something like that... but I didnt know I could do it so easily. This place truely enhances your training.. [b]Tarlain[/b]: [i]Mana flows freely through this place...[/i] [b]Death Knight[/b]: Obviously.. Heh. [b]Tarlain[/b]: [i]Alright. Lets get back to it..[/i][/color]

[color=crimson][b]Ken[/b]: But now this land is beautiful again.. probably thanks to you... [b]Tarlain[/b]: [i]Yes.. This land is very beautiful.. But Haddah was to thanks for most of this.[/i] [b]Ken[/b]: But he wouldnt have had any reason to remake it if you hadnt survived. So in essence, this land reflects your beauty.. A breeze of wind flew through the area, the grass rippling in the wind. Both of them continued talking on, about the past, their future, and the present- And how it all seemed so simple in this land of wonder.[/color]

[color=crimson]As they center their furies upon the boulder, pieces of it began to strip away. The two girls began to yell, raising their power- Their hair rising up as their auras came into appearence for the very first time. The boulder began to viberate, as the ground beneath it began to strip away. [b]Death Knight[/b]: Alright... Slow it down a bit... They didnt seem to hear him, as they pushed themselves harder and harder, intill finally a large shockwave eminated from the boulder as both of the girls fainted. The shockwave hit Death Knight, and he was sent flying backwards. Finally he leaned down and grabbed onto the land, keeping himself anchored. He wasnt expecting that to happen. The area calmed around them, and Tarlain slowly stood from where she had been thrown. [b]Death Knight[/b]: They still dont know how to control it perfectly... I guess we should have expected that to happen eventually. I'll go check on Zelfoh, you check on Celestine. Death Knight regained his balance and jogged over to Zelfoh, picking her up and shaking her slightly. Her eyes opened as she regained consiousness from the sudden exlpulsion of power. She slowly helped herself up, and shook her head. Celestine got up as well, shaking her head. Zelfoh and Celestine were both bleeding from their foreheads, and Tarlain healed them both. [b]Death Knight[/b]: I think we should feel sorry for that boulder... They all looked over to where it had been, and saw nothing but a small pile of dust, sparkles of mana rising up from where both of their powers had centered. [/color]

[color=crimson][b]Ken[/b]: Mmmm. Exactly like it was in Heaven. Satan wanted the worship the humans were giving to God... a Civil War erupted out that lasted for four thousand years... Friends I knew since I was a child were dieing around me. It was horrible... Angel against Angel... Jesus against Satan. Finally, we were kicked out from Heaven, by a final spell from God himself.. and we plummited down, down, down.. Intill we finally fell into the ocean, where we all went our seperate ways. Some of us decided to keep rebelling against God, and formed a city in the Lava Chambers of Earth... Hell... But I decided to just live, travelling around... somehow I ended up as a Paranormal Inc financial helper... Heh heh.. We have such interesting pasts...[/color]

[color=crimson][b]Death Knight[/b]: .... Blessed be to God- My old friend is alive and well... Medra has reawakened after having to Regenerate his health after the blast that destroyed New York... HAHA! YES! Death Knight growled a Demonic blessing to Medra, wishing him a well journey as he tore his way south- Headed to the front lines in Mexico. In Medras mind flashed the blessing, and he immediately nodded to his friend, sending one back to him as well... Death Knight fell back to silence, as Celestine continued practicing the Ra Tilt. He looked at Tarlain, and back at the boulder. Silently, he made the mass of the boulder increase- without any obvious size gain. He looked to Tarlain, who nodded to him... Celestine began to sweat, as she expended energy pushing the boulder. [b]Zelfoh[/b]: Father, give me something to do. [b]Death Knight[/b]: Hmmm.......... Tarlain, would it be alright if Zelfoh tried to hold the boulder as Celestine did Ra Tilt to it? It should be a challenge, since Ra Tilt is so powerful.. [b]Tarlain[/b]: [i]Sure.[/i] She nodded, and Zelfoh jogged over to where she had the boulder in her line of vision. Celestine unleashed a Ra Tilt, and the boulder barely budged, with some effort by Zelfoh...[/color]

[color=crimson][b]Ken[/b]: I'll get you back for that *winks* He jumped under the water, swirling to where he was facing her. He drifted for a moment, watching her walk on the water's surface as an Angel should. Closing his eyes, he let the water ease the tension in his muscles. Letting out some air in a midwater sigh, he resurfaced next to Tarlain. [b]Ken[/b]: Hehe. Enjoying yourself I take it? [b]Tarlain[/b]: [i]You're just jealous that you cant do it[/i] She winked at him and he shook his head with a grin on his face. He floated on his back idlely, whistling an ancient song to himself as he floated. The clouds sped by at an accelerated rate, and the water rippled from the falls as it probably had for thousands of years. [b]Ken[/b]: I've been curious... Where does this waterfall get its water? I just realized that I had never taken a look...[/color]

[color=crimson][b]Ken[/b]: But... I dont want you do be gone forever.... Ken silently frowned at that thought, and held her as close as he could to himself. He knew that she would have to die for her daughter to keep her bloodline going, and that most likely her mother had to do the same. He nodded silently, and smiled at her a bit. Somehow, he knew that she wouldnt be gone from him forever, but he was still somewhat sad at that fact still. But he guessed it had to be done.. Silently, he closed his eyes... [/color]

[color=crimson][b]Death Knight[/b]: ... all is well... He walked away slowly, his head lowered, staring at the ground. He turned and sat down at the base of the tree, silently waiting for day to come. Tarlain sat, eyes closed, and she drifted into a sleep as well.. --- --- The Sun rose slowly over Atenae, and all of the women slowly opened their eyes, stretching. Death Knight was standing at the edge of the waterfall, watching the water carefully. Tarlain was the first up, while the two young women groggily begged for more sleep[/color]

[color=crimson][b]Death Knight[/b]: ... Good idea. He walked foreward and picked both of the sleeping women up, placing them near Tarlain, and placing a blanket over them. He nodded to Tarlain, and walked back twards the tree as they dozed silently, next to each other. [b]Tarlain[/b]: [i]You arent as heartless as you look...[/i] [b]Death Knight[/b]: ... Mmm... I guess... [b]Tarlain[/b]: [i]They are quick learners...[/i] [b]Death Knight[/b]: Perhaps, someday, they will surpass their teachers, eh? [b]Tarlain[/b]: [i]Maybe... but, probably not...[/i] Death Knight began to laugh for the first time in the last two days heartily, and nodded..[/color]

[color=crimson]Death Knight was still silently staring at the sky, feeling his daughters mana flow into her fists, the fighting growing intense. He slowly got up, and began to walk twards the fight, calmly taking in the whole thing. As soon as he got there, he nodded twards Tarlain, and joined her in watching the fight, leaning against the tree. Finally, Zelfoh punched Celestine as hard as she could with her fist, the punch full of mana. Celestine counterattacked, hitting Zelfoh as hard as she could. Both of them, stumbled back, their noses bleeding, both suprised..[/color]
