Carissa has received the map Inn of the lost eagle.

[Master] I am back at the keyboard.

[Master] Hello!

[Carissa] Hello!

[Carissa] How's life?

[Master] Things are good

[Master] I am relaxed happy

[Carissa] Good

[Carissa] Don't drown tomorrow

[Carissa] Although looks like it shifted again

[Master] Nah will be easy

[Master] just lots of rain

[Carissa] Nice! Actually will brb, storm coming through here. Need to make sure things won't fly off the balcony :)

[Carissa] I am away from the keyboard.

Lemon has received the map Inn of the lost eagle.

[Lemon] Hello!

[Master] welcome Lemon

[Master] I hope that everyone had a good two week

[Master] tonight I hope we make some choices about what to do with the Inn here and the people in it

[Lisa] Hi Lemon!

[Carissa] I am back at the keyboard.

[Carissa] Hi Lisa and Lemon!

[Lisa] Hi Carissa!

[Master] I am here and ready

[Lisa] Buying a new measuring cup. Sasha knocked pyrex measupring cup off the counter and it fell four feet and shattered through the kitchen and into the hallway

[Master] OH NO

[Lisa] not a fun cleanup day

[Carissa] Ouchh (hopefully not literally)

[Lisa] no one was injured. But fell so hard glass just went flying all over. Still finding shards I missed from trying to clean up

[Master] I can imagine

[Carissa] Dang that sucks

[Carissa] When Pyrex shatters, it shatters.

[Lisa] at least it was just a measuring cup and not a wine glass or something nice

[Lemon] Yikes! Glad everyone is ok

[Lemon] I'm catching up on the last chat... I didn't think there would have been so much after I went to sleep, thought I could catch up quicker

[Lisa] I leave it out to refill cat water bowl - silly me for leaving things on the counter :D

[Master] chcukles

[Lisa] yes was a lomng chat last week

[Carissa] lol that's my worst fear when I leave stuff on the counter. I try to remember not to, but I fear it's probably only a matter of time before I have to clean up glass, too.

[Master] so what do the three of you think is happening?

[Carissa] We opened a new timeline?

[Carissa] I meant to reread chat again, but alas.

[Master] close

[Carissa] Well there was something about existing there but not here so maybe a new "potential" of a timeline since it's the past? And the roll was to see if someone could exist in both spots of time, although if I recall correctly it was only a roll when going to the inn, not out which I was trying to figure out.

[Carissa] Then again, you can "only go into the past" or something like that, so you don't have to roll to go into the present...?

[Master] All good thoughts

[Carissa] Anyways only other thought it a wind spell to get that dust. Not sure if touching it is a good idea. Does Bixi have wind spells?

[Carissa] Where to put it, though, where a mage like jerkface can't get it, I don't know.

[Lisa] not sure if dust is the only thing keeping time from advancing in that place

[Lisa] if you remove the dust does the place instantly age?

[Lisa] mage said not to touch it

[Carissa] Yeah, I wasn't sure about that, either. Gather it and hide it at the inn to keep it good? Move everyone outside, gather dust, let time catch up, move them back in? Lots of thoughts. No idea how it works to know a good thought.

[Carissa] But also, sunshine inn. Think of the prices one could charge! :P

[Lisa] I don't know either - we need to get the mage to talk maybe now that he's calmed down a little

[Carissa] Agree. If he's willing to talk now. Not sure anyone else but him knows the answers to these questions.

[Carissa] Not sure what to do about him, either.

[Lisa] sorry I wasn't smacking him around with you guys last week but he's the only one with the answers so I tried to be neutral - even though he hates Indigo :D

[Carissa] lol no that was a good idea

[Carissa] That's why I decided to not have N'laea do much expect be rude so at least I had one other to talk to him. Not as nicely, though :)

[Carissa] Did he hate Indigo back when we first ran into him? I can't remember.

[Carissa] Or just now that his plan failed?

[Lisa] if we take the monocle too then Bixi should be able to use it to Identify the ring and see if it is safe or dangerous

[Lisa] He said that he had tried to make him fail before

[Carissa] Ooh right, we do need that. He shouldn't be allowed any of his things.

[Lisa] I think he said he hated Indigo because of the comment I made to him about how many times has he broken the hourglass before

[Lisa] I was just trying to make the point that things might be different than what he thinks and he got all mad for some odd reason :)

[Carissa] lol

[Master] I am ready when the three of you are

Spring has joined the game on Fri Aug 13 19:42:30 EDT 2021

Spring is receiving the map Inn of the lost eagle...

Spring has received the map Inn of the lost eagle.

[Master] and wonderful Spring is here

[Carissa] Spring is here! Let's toss her under that bus.

[Spring] hi hi hi

[Carissa] Hi Spring!

[Spring] i got a mosquito net all set up and then the breeze shifted

[Spring] sorry i'm late

[Lemon] Hi Spring!

[Lemon] I am now caught up on the last chat and the current one

[Lisa] Hi Spring!

TMO has joined the game on Fri Aug 13 19:46:08 EDT 2021

TMO is receiving the map Inn of the lost eagle...

TMO has received the map Inn of the lost eagle.

[TMO] sorry I'm late

[Carissa] Wait, no, throw TMO under the bus instead!

[Lisa] Hi TMO!

[Master] No worries we are just getting started with Brer being heated up in the stew pot

[TMO] how damaged do you want this bus to be?

[Lemon] So I think the dude is just a crazy jerk and we should just leave him here forever :P

[Spring] hahaha the wind just shifted again

[Spring] from a new direction

[TMO] I mean, I've got the mass to inflict some serious damage upon a defenseless moving vehicle.

[Carissa] Hmm, a flat tire or two and a new bumper?

[TMO] can do!

[Carissa] But still intact enough to do one of those bus house conversions. For fun. Thanks!

[Spring] hahahaha

[TMO] what do I need to know for tonight's game?

[TMO] who do you want me to wisdom into submission, how, and why?

[Lemon] Oooh, maybe we could turn it into a food truck or a mobile pet grooming service

[Carissa] We speculated some on what's happening, but really mage guy has the answers we need like... is it just the dust that's magic? What happens when it's removed? How do we steal his mnonocole off him?

[Master] brb to empty and refill

[Master] I am away from the keyboard.

[Lemon] But do we REALLY need those answers?

[Lisa] last thing that was said last week

[Lisa] [Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] and if we are not in The Mist then all the basic history is real [Indigo (Lisa)] You really have to come outside [Brer Necholas (TMO)] Your history seems to be different from ours. [Brer Necholas (TMO)] Or you're delusional. [Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] But is my future different than my own? [Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Are you telling me I am not going to die 300 years ago?

[Lisa] Kind of Lemon

[Carissa] Unfortuately, yes. Because we're in charge of the area and need to know what is and is not a threat long term.

[Lisa] that ^

[Lemon] Well *I'm* not in charge

[Lemon] :P

[Carissa] lol but things do have a way to come bite us, any of us, in the butt later if we don't figure it out in the now

[TMO] All raise your hands to put Lemon in charge!

TMO raises hand

[Lemon] Hahahaha

[Carissa] Also I missed that comment about the lack of Mist being all basic history is real? Does the Mist also influence time?

[Lemon] This guy ruffles all my feathers, I have half a mind to just let Bixi go back into the mist and see what happens

[Carissa] I don't think going back in is the problem. I think it's going to the Inn from The Mist.

[Master] I am back at the keyboard.

[TMO] brb- wife just got home, need to check in

[TMO] I am away from the keyboard.

[Spring] sorry i was distracted. i vote yes to Lemon in charge

[Carissa] Round two of storms coming though.

[Lemon] But didn't we all just do that in a sense? Brer 100% did, right?

[Spring] crap, i didn't check tropical weather. am i getting any?

[Carissa] So I got it wrong. It was Lemon to toss under the bus this whole time.

[Lemon] Send the storms here, I could use a good rainy day

[Spring] looking ...

[Carissa] These are like classic Texas storms rolling throgh. I love it.

[Lemon] Like he literally walked in from the mist

[Lemon] The rest of us just happened to be there when it went away, is that the same as walking out of it?

[Carissa] Brer had to roll a save vs magic. Horse did, too.

[Carissa] When horse came back in.

[Lemon] Oh right

[Lemon] That's a good horse

[Carissa] If we want to be unethical in our animal testing, we could drag the horse back in and out to see what happens when magic save fails...

[Lemon] Didn't he say there were rats?

[Carissa] A classic lab animal!

[Lemon] We could just toss those right through, no problem

[Carissa] Play toss the rat with Howard? :)

[Spring] oh good they think fred is gonna flank me to the west

[Lemon] Raelynn is really attached to the horse, I don't want to test on the horse anymore lol

[Carissa] I just lost two more weekends so....

[Lemon] lol, I don't know, we were kind of playing apple toss, why not upgrade to rats

[Lemon] Lost to horse babysitting?

[Carissa] Yup

[Carissa] At least the Sundays. Think they're flying in late enough it's only one Sunday and normal work afterhours.

[Lemon] The entire horse babysitting thing is just so new and weird to me

[Master] yes

[Spring] we could use wind servant to funnel up the dust and put it away

[Spring] maybe there's a jar around

[Lemon] What if we pour beer on it

[Spring] i'm in favor of beer

[Lemon] Like what I really want to do is set up a lab and start doing a lot of scientific tests on the dust and the rats lol

[Master] That is a reasonable thing to do

[Master] just need to come up with an immediate plan to move things forward tonight

[Carissa] Bring him outside and see if he talks more is my immediat plan vote

[Lemon] Is there a spell to make him say things that make sense?

[Carissa] Hmm...one to make him say the truth, but that's not quite the same thing

[Spring] i don't know of one

[TMO] I am back at the keyboard.

[Spring] but i'm with carissa, i'd like to get out of here and if that means taking him with and questioning him later, that works

[Spring] although we might wind up in ancient times or something.

[Lemon] I'm in favor of that, mostly because he doesn't seem to want to go outside and I kind of just want to do whatever he doesn't want to do

[TMO] we're walking like Egyptians

[Carissa] I thought we left off with him wanting to see the sun.

[Spring] let's show him some sun and then cart his ass out

[Lemon] He seemed to get all nervous any time someone asked him if he wanted to go look outside

[Spring] we can truss him like a pig. probalby

[Master] When you are ready, I am, I think Lisa got sidetracked

[Master] thinking glass shards

[Spring] i for one am done with the verbal games

[Lisa] shopping for laptop stands - sorry

[Spring] so i say we start taking action, and if he don't like it, he can get real clear and real concise real quick

[Master] OK

[Master] so starting ?

[Lisa] sure

[Spring] i'd like to see who's with me

[Spring] if it's a bad plan, we kinda should know

[Lemon] I'm definitely in, I'm bad at riddles and just not in the mood for more nonsense from him

[Lisa] I'm not a fan of hurting the only guy who possibly has answers before he's given the answers but I'm not in charge and I have a soft spot for arrogant mages

[Lisa] so my opinion shouldn't count so much

[Spring] but its a fair take

[Lemon] I'm not convinced he couldn't hurt us back, but I'm so willing to take that risk after how badly he treated everyone

[Carissa] I agree with getting answers from the only guy with them. I have not developed that soft spot, though ;)

[Lisa] I totally get the frustration

[Lisa] this is a Bob conversation encounter

[Lemon] If it was JUST the riddles it would be ok, but the riddles AND the being a jerk is just too much for me

[Lemon] But I also have no idea what I'm doing, so I will go along with whatever everyone decides, even if it makes me want to punch the arrogant mage lol

[Lisa] as a part mage Bixi should be curious where his books are

[Lisa] not necessarily the first questions but stuff to keep in mind as we decide things

[Lisa] a mage with no books is just a guy with a bad attitude

[Lisa] getting stabbed into unconsciousness removed any spells he had in his head

[Lemon] That is helpful. Being a newbie, I don't really know what I should be concerned about yet :)

[Lisa] mages need to memorize from books and scrolls. They get hit hard enough the spells get knocked out of their brains

[Spring] i know that feeling

[Lemon] Wait is that just a standard thing? Being almost dead makes you forget everything?

[Lemon] Ohhhhhh, interesting

[Lisa] priests too for that matter as far as getting knocked out

[Lisa] but they don't need to memorize from written things

[Lisa] they just pray

[Lemon] Do I happen to have a hard hat in my bag?

[Lisa] lol

[Lisa] it's the unconscious thing. If you were down to 1 hp and awake you would hold the spells

[Lemon] But sleeping unconscious works the other way

[Lisa] negative hps unconscious

[Lemon] ahhhhh, ok, got it

[Carissa] And past -10 HP is head/.

[Carissa] ....dead

[Lisa] -1 to -9 is mostly dead

[Master] grins

[Lisa] it would take a miracle!

[Lemon] lol

[Spring] hhahaha

[Lisa] anyway I'm ready :)

[Lemon] I'm never ready, but I will pretend to be when everyone else is!

[Carissa] (we're usually pretending we're ready, too)

[Spring] i'm like whatever

[Spring] long week, very tired

Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master) wipes his hand over his face

[Spring] and not necessarily interested in my character's life expectancy

[Spring] I am back at the keyboard.

[Indigo (Lisa)] I don't know when you're going to die or how many times

[Snezana (Spring)] barkeep, do you have a big jar?

[Indigo (Lisa)] I barely understand what you're saying about this time stuff

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] Sure I can find something

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Which time?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] that is the problem

[Snezana (Spring)] (oh cute, snee doesn't have wind servant. must be kenna)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] What about the beginning?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Which beginning?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] You have more than one?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I only have one

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] There you go.

[Lemon] I still don't have a picture :(

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] but every story has its own beginning

[Indigo (Lisa)] What year was it when you made the hourglass?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] 362

[Indigo (Lisa)] so you haven't made it yet

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Yes it does not exist yet

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] That is why you can only go backwards

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] which is the problem

[Lemon] I am back at the keyboard.

[N'laea (Carissa)] Will you still make it in this time?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] But I mean, it does though... it's broken on the floor

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Well see, it does not exist NOW, so that means it will does not exist again

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I do not know the future, I only know the past

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Whose past?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] But you've gone back and changed the past?

[Indigo (Lisa)] which changes the future

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] See how complicated it gets?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] The Queen did not understand

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Can you simplify it?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Or is that beyond your capabilities?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Let's start at the beginning, again. What is the earliest historical event you've changed?

[Spring] I am away from the keyboard.

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] What I can say is that I can only go backwards in time, so I can go from NOW to THEN to make things happen

[Indigo (Lisa)] Not any more though since the hourglass is broken

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] When did you start going backwards? And how many whens have you stopped at?

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) starts to take notes

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I have gone back to 136

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] The real problem is that I have never gone past when I was born

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] You only went back in time once?

[Spring] I am back at the keyboard.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] What did you change in 136?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] No I mean I never went forward

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Thinking about some time traveling ghost stories)

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I am

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] OK let me tell you my history

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I lived into 362, I then went back into time, the farthest back was 136, I then moved forward in bits, but I cannot go forward to 362

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] and I apparently am now in 350?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] So I only have 12 years to live?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Maybe.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] I thought you said you couldn't move forward?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I know I died

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] that is the idea

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] that I am not supposed to move forward,

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] He means forward from when he made the hourglass, I think.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] But you just said you moved forward in bits?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I do not know how that can work

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] What year did this tavern get trapped again?

[Indigo (Lisa)] (187?)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (3rd civil war)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (28-10-187 SKR after months of fighting the Eustace noble family is decimated by attacks and relinquishes the throne and marries Edward to the Bolpel family. One aspect of the settlement to end the Third Drillian Civil War is that Edward can only marry a member of the Bolpel family.)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] We may still be in the old time here. There was no Mist at the time, and there's no Mist outside that door.

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) mostly mumbling to herself while she scribbles "How would he know he died?"

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] (yes 197)

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] (187)

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] So that is the new wrinkle in time

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] (grins)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Wormhole!)

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I was in 187

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] it is now 350

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] That means I lived through this already

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] which I cannot do

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] twice

[Indigo (Lisa)] But you didn't live through this

Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master) takes a deep breath

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] So where would you be right now? In the time you already lived through this?

[Indigo (Lisa)] You changed the past so what you lived through before isn't the same as it is now

[Indigo (Lisa)] It's all new now that you made changes

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] In 350? I was in the Bolpel Estates studying

[Indigo (Lisa)] Why you don't understand how Wilimina Mosskin is Queen

[Indigo (Lisa)] You messed your whole life up

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] When I was living there Josephine Bolpel was Queen

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Ha! Take that, Mr. the Amazing!)

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] How a Mosskin became Queen

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] That family is just infuriating

[Indigo (Lisa)] In our time Queen Wilimina defeated the Bolpel uprising and they Bolpels are just living in their swamps

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] But are we in our time, or are we in the inn's time?

Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master) gestures to the group there of Susan and other

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] They are here to defeat the Queen

Indigo (Lisa) laughs

[Indigo (Lisa)] A couple of people aren't going to start another civil war

[Indigo (Lisa)] They aren't defeating anyone

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I agree with you Indigo

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] They are here THEN to defeat the Queen

Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master) looks at Bixi

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] THAT is a very good question

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] If you go out side of the Inn there is sun and open skys

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] there is no MIST

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] If what you say is correct, and you can't be in 350 because you're still alive in 350, and Mist covers this place in 350, yet there's no Mist outside right now, then my guess is that we're not in 350.

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] does that mean we are in 350? or?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] But we can see the people who ARE in the MIST

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I cannot answer

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I suppose I might be able to in the future, but here, after studying

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] but what happens out there?

[Indigo (Lisa)] Studying what? You had a room here?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I'm distracting him! Someone quarantine the dust lol)

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I do not

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I was escaping the wrath of several other mages

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] What were they mad about?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] and came into a stone dwelling to use the Hourglass and move backwards

[Indigo (Lisa)] Even mages didn't like you?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] It is part of war

[Indigo (Lisa)] Oh well that makes sense

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] No one wants to admit that the other side might have anything good

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] In THIS time what is the area like?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Is Skull Church still there?

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods

Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master) wry chuckle

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Maybe that is the only thing that is constant throughout time

[Indigo (Lisa)] Hope not

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] oh?

[Indigo (Lisa)] Everything changes except Skull Church?

[Indigo (Lisa)] Gold Hills stays the same

[Indigo (Lisa)] I think

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] have you ever been back to 362?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I would guess.... smiles Captain Indigo you can make the Gold Hills stay by the will of your own goodness

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I do hate you for that

[Indigo (Lisa)] You hate that I am good?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I have not been back to 362

[Indigo (Lisa)] Brer, have you done your eye thing on him?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Eye thing?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Indigo, you have been consistent in your ongoing belief that people can be good and you have always been nice to people and never have you stopped

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] so you don't know what the effects of any changes you've made have been? So something you changed 20 years in your past might have done something to the future, and you wouldn't know.

[Indigo (Lisa)] yeah. Watch

[Indigo (Lisa)] He does his eye patch thing

Brer Necholas (TMO) chuckles.

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] If I changed it in the past and it is not here now then I know that what I did did not make any change

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Or if today is different than it was before then I know I changed things

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] But the Queen in 350 might have changed and you wouldn't know unless you visited it

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] If you are confused

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Good

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] and yes the Queen in 350 is now apparently a Mosskin, points at Indigo, because he says so, and I believe him but when I was in 350 it was Queen Bopel

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] So this is a different 350, or the same 350 but changed?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] All I KNOW for certain is that I cannot go forward, and I have been dragged forward by more than a hundred years

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Why are you doing these things? And I am going to Look at you while you answer, so please don't lie or twist the truth.

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Do what?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] When I did what?

Brer Necholas (TMO) reaches up under his hood and puls up his eyepatch

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] that is the problem?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas: Detect Evil Intent: By focusing for an entire round, I can detect evil intent or actions in a location or group up to 60' away and 10' wide.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Why. Why are you traveling thru time and changing things?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (So if he was dragged forward, and wasn't trying to GO forward, is there some kind of other force behind this?)

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master) (to TMO only)] Yes he is evil but not active in evil intent,

[Indigo (Lisa)] (good question)

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I wanted to go back to help make the future better

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] What was so wrong about your future?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] People who would prevent change shoudl be stopped

[Indigo (Lisa)] Says who?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I think you would

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] You would want people to be treated fairly

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] you want everyone to know that they have the chance to better themselves

[Indigo (Lisa)] Well ... yes ... but ... you have to try to do that yourself

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Queen Bopel was making great progress in making sure that all people and types of people were treated equally

[Indigo (Lisa)] Not run around messing up stuff

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] She was about to ensure that Lizard People were treated equally with all

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Then she was assasinated

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] And if you support equality, why did you treat everyone so badly when you first got here?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] ... Lizard people?

Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master) looks at Bixi

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Treat who badly?

Indigo (Lisa) scratches his head "So if she was and you knew that, why would you mess up the past that would mess up the future

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Me? Raelynn? Everyone but Indigo?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I was trying to make sure that she survived

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] and I hate Indigo

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Yes, we know.

Indigo (Lisa) rolls eyes

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] He always manages to find a way to bring something forward

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] No one shoudl be that good

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] This has happened before?

Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master) points to Brer

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] HE is not as good

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Every time that I have met Indigo

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Bring something forward? In time?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Captian, Admiral no matter what

Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master) sighs

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] that is the problem

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] So you've met him in the past? Before 187?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] OH no

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Lol, did his hatred of Indigo pull him here?)

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I only met him in person twice

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] once he stopped me from getting the ships that I needed to change the war

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] and just now

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I should have known it would be him that would trap me here

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] You were trapped here on your own.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Indigo had nothing to do with that.

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] But he is one of the Heroes of the Realm

[N'laea (Carissa)] You assume the govenor will let you remain here?

Snezana (Spring) gives him a dirty look

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Apparently I was here but dead for over a hundred years

[Snezana (Spring)] well, dead you're not bothering anybody

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] That is a good point

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Has anyone been out there yet? Back into The Mist?

Brer Necholas (TMO) shakes his head.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] The horse has!

[N'laea (Carissa)] (I think only Bixi saw the horse go out?)

[Snezana (Spring)] wre about to. we can't stay here

[N'laea (Carissa)] Nice though the sun is...

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] The horse went out and then came back in for some apples

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Inanimate objects are just constant

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I am not quite sure of all the twists for animals

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Is a horse an inanimate object?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Ah

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I only made this to work for me

[N'laea (Carissa)] Then why don't you see what happens first?

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) tries not to smile

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I cannot see what happens in the future, I can only go backwards

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] that is the problem

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I see what is NOW and I go BACK to try to make changes so that the FUTURE is better

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Without knowing what changes happen to the future.

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I am confident that I am making the right choices

[N'laea (Carissa)] But we can see what happens when you cross into The Mist.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Queen is assassinated, so you travel back 200 years in the past to prevent it?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] (and so the evil designation)

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] But Miss Elf, are you going back to The Mist of your time or which time?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I am not going to risk it

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I will stay right here

[N'laea (Carissa)] As I said, that is for the govenor to decide.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] With people that want to kill you?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] If I go out there into The Mist I have no control or idea what will happen

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] but here, with no Mist

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] that tells me that this Inn is not in 350

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] so that means that I am safe

[Indigo (Lisa)] Snee will probably take all your magic sand

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Until they kill you again.

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] And if she does and then she disapears?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] into which time?

[N'laea (Carissa)] So you are only brave when you can escape from your own actions.

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] without the Hourglass to control the sands when would she be?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Who said I was brave?

[Indigo (Lisa)] Won't you get bored sitting in an Inn for the rest of your life not being able to do magic or anything?

Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master) points to Indigo

[Spring] I am back at the keyboard.

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Did you get me confused with?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Since we can't fix the hourglass, what if's don't matter. Either we will be in our own time, or we won't. We can't change the result.

[N'laea (Carissa)] No one, but you have the confidence to see yourself that way.

[Snezana (Spring)] or i? if i disappear, oh well. i've disappeared before

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] We shoudl all stay here

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] No.

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] but I understand that you will want to go out

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] You've disappeared before!?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I am not sure WHEN you will go out

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods.

Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master) looks at Snee

[Snezana (Spring)] i grew up a street urchin. anyone who wanted me snatched me

[Snezana (Spring)] just so happened that finally the church snatched me

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] That sounds terrible

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Here we are safe

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] ALL of us

Snezana (Spring) nods gravely

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Again, they *killed* you.

Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master) looks around the room

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Who killed me?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Even if we're "safe" how long until the food runs out?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] You told me you healed me from a spear in my back

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] none of these people have spears

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Whoever stuck the spear in your back.

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] So that would tell me that someone else someWHEN stabbed me with a spear

Gerry the barkeep (Master) coughs

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] That is true

[Indigo (Lisa)] They don't have a spear because it was in your back

[N'laea (Carissa)] None of them were eager to help you, and were willing to let you bleed out.

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] He stagged in here with a spear in his back, no on here did that to him,

[Indigo (Lisa)] Thanks Gerry!

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Ah, my mistake.

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] He came through the door in a flash, a spear hit him and then the Hourglass dropped onto the bar

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] Oh I checked on him

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] but he was bleeding and died

Gerry the barkeep (Master) gestures around,

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] None of us are priests

[Indigo (Lisa)] So we should spend the night here and see what happens in the morning maybe?

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] Then you - points to Snee - broke the hourglass

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] But what happened when everything reset?

[N'laea (Carissa)] We still do not know where others went.

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] If you stay here in the morning eveything in the past? looks doubtful and confused would go back to the beginning

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I thought we didn't want to let him sleep?)

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] we got used to his gasps and dying

[N'laea (Carissa)] (if we took his spellbook, he can sleep, but we don't know)

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) shudders

[Indigo (Lisa)] (he can sleep all he likes - no books, no spells)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I'd rather see if we can get out before nightfall.

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] I like the sun

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] I am not sure I want to go out there, into that mist? what is it?

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] If it is not the same mist that we have lived with

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Those of you from here should probably stay until we test it.

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] From WHEN

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) can't let it go

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Aunt Snezana, do you have any way to scry?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] So you died over and over again every day?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Or commune?

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] Yes he did

[Indigo (Lisa)] Is your mage tower on the Bolpel estate?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I do not have a tower

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] And he REMEMBERS dying over and over again every day?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] It is all stored in my ring and my scroll

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] but I seem to have lost my scroll

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] unless you have it?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I do not remember dying

[Indigo (Lisa)] See! I knew that ring was something

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] only bursting into this Inn and then waking up to you

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] all questioning me

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] So how did you die in 362?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] and again Indigo I hate you

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] you have my scroll?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I did not die in 362, do try to keep up

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] that is when I started going backwards

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] So you only died the once, from the spear?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Obviously I did not die from the spear or we would not be talking

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] plesae do try to keep up

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) rolls her eyes

Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master) looks around

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Gerry just said you died every day

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Anyone want to help her?

[Master] Grins, is there anyone who wants to keep him alive at this point?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] If I died every day

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] then how would I know that?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] If you think he is lying then I would suggest that you take that up with him

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] /shrugs

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] I figured half-ghosts would know something about dying

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] He is,... well was dead

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I believe you.

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] Thank you?

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] I am not sure what that means?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (lol this guy died every day, I definitely think he's part ghost)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (can't find it - there was some kind of roll on his body I was going to put it in the party pack but then it said it was what he had but was taken or something so I didn't and now I can't find it)

Brer Necholas (TMO) stands up. "I'll go test the boundary, I think."

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] (grins at Lisa)

[Master] No

[Master] Wait

[Master] Stop

[Master] Wonka watches Brer march towards The Mist

[Indigo (Lisa)] (you sound like Willy Wonka when the bad kids are going to get in trouble)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (wonka?)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (lol!)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (and so funny you posted that while I was typing)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (ah, I didn't jump to the meme)

[Snezana (Spring)] (hahaha)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (I think Susan has the scroll. Had to find it in chat)

[Master] SO you do need to make decisions and test things

[Master] talk OOC to make sure you know what you want to do

[Master] Then move forward

[Master] you have a lot of information now

[Spring] i'm sorry i'm so useless

[Master] You are not at all

[Master] just give your gut instinct on what you think

[Spring] nothing turns me off faster than an asshole and i'd rather kill my character than talk to him, so feel free to use Snee as a guinea pig

[TMO] as TMO understands it, he jumped back 200 years to prevent an assassination, and has been skipping forward in smaller increments, tweaking things along, but never going back to his future to find out what happened.

[Carissa] ([Gerry the barkeep (Master)] Iron Key Silver Key two small rubies (takenbygormel) -1 small piece of parchment (takenbysusan) -1 belt with small pouches (takenbygormel) -1)

[Lisa] thanks

[Carissa] Np

[Lisa] we should maybe ask to read it

[Master] and Spring is he an asshole? or just so supremely confident that HE IS RIGHT that it show up as Evil to Brer, as in I am right and you will do what I say because I am right, the truth of the single out weighs the truth of the many

[TMO] sounds like an asshole to me. :)

[Master] grins

[Spring] youjust defined one species of asshole

[Master] bows

[Carissa] (Yeah looking to see if I can find it in the old chats atm...)

[Carissa] (Gerry would have seen it taken, I'd think at least)

[Lisa] you sure he's a mage andno a paladin? :P

[Spring] see i encounter enough of this in the mundane world, so i take all the liberty in not engaging with it in my fantasy play

[Master] Things you know: The Mist still exists, right here in the Inn it does not,

[Master] beyond that all is up for grabs

[Master] and HUGS to Spring, zero intention to force you to deal with mundane assholes

[Carissa] (and yes, that scroll came from his boot Lisa so pretty sure Susan holds his other spells :) )

[TMO] here we have supernatural assholes

[Lisa] he is definitely not getting the ring back

[Lisa] we should probably confiscate the scroll in case he takes it back

[Carissa] Agree

[Carissa] (oh wait.... [barkeep (Master) (to valma-73412 only)] is a set of passwords, the call and respond to get through the guard posts)

[Carissa] (Eh, still should take it. Might be fake and hiding the spells cause mage?)

[Lisa] the sand probably needs to stay here to keep this place as is. But preferably like Spring wanted and contained instead of spilt al over the place

[Carissa] (okay one last one because it's funny)

[Carissa] (Susan Delgado (valma-73412) puts parchment in between my breasts [Susan Delgado (valma-73412)] tis naught but a note for his ma)

[Lisa] LOL

[Master] Velarie knows how to roleplay,

[Master] Valarie

[Carissa] lol

[Carissa] But yes, sorry back to the convo

[Master] And Fred is here

[TMO] who wants to fish it out?

[Master] the rain starts

[Carissa] He said he needs the hourglass so leaving the sand itself isn't a problem now, right?

[Lisa] I would not think so ...

[Carissa] Maybe just... clean up the glass shards? There's some kind of irony in that. Coincidence? Something?

[TMO] anybody got a ziploc?

[Carissa] Take the actual parts of the hourglass, but leave the sand.

[Master] grins at Carissa and Lisa

[Lisa] I would think the object as created holds the full magic. Putting the sand in a pickle jar wouldn't make it work I don't think

[Master] Yes

[Lisa] lol Carissa

[Carissa] Yeah, I'm just thinking take away at least part of the hourglass so another can't be pieced together from the remains.

[TMO] bagreed

[Carissa] Whether this mage dies or not

[Master] a pheonix feather does not work alone without the wand

[Carissa] Right

[TMO] that's the hope

[Carissa] Also no wind spells over here or any useful spells to get the sand.

[Carissa] If we're avoiding touching it with anything physical

[Master] Lemon? ideas?

[TMO] Anyway - back to Brer's question: Does Snezana have any scrying spells that normally wouldn't work in the Mist?

[Master] or Rae?

[TMO] Rae is outside, right?

[TMO] or did she come back?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Sorry, I got called away. I would just like to add my two cents that he is, indeed, an asshole

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (lol supposed to be ooc sorry)

[Carissa] Raelynn has Augury if someone has something worth 1000 GP on them to use as a spell component (it does not get used up so just for casting then can be given back)

[Carissa] And Astrology but I haven't a clue how that'd work here...

[TMO] exactly

[Carissa] And she's outside petting the horse so not outside in the Mist

[Master] Divination spells do not work in The Mist

[Carissa] lol I meant game mechanics

[TMO] we're not in The Mist

[Carissa] As in, I've never had Astrology as a prof to know if it's an instant thing or not

[TMO] so can we Divine what year it is?

[Lisa] we have 3 priests here - one of them might have something

[Carissa] Oh. Huh, yeah probably

[Master] Proficienies are different than Spells

[Spring] snee has omen reading

[Lemon] Um... I have a weather prediction spell

[TMO] can we Divine what will happen if we go back thru the boundary into the Mist

[Lemon] And I can make people climb trees like squirrels

[TMO] can we Divine what will happen if we throttle this asshole

[Spring] hehehehe

[Master] grins

[Lisa] Bixi can tell which way is north :D

[Carissa] (LOL: learly this proficiency requires preparation and advance knowledge on the part of the DM. Because of this, it is permissible for the DM to avoid the question, although this shouldn't be done all the time. Players who want to make their DM's life easier (always a good idea) should consider using this proficiency at the end of a gaming session, giving the DM until the next session to come up with an answer.)

[Lemon] Lol yes. I have been looking through my list today, and nothing SEEMS helpful, but it could just be that I don't understand how it would be helpful

[TMO] Bob has had 2 weeks to prep

[TMO] he's good

[Master] A wise person

[Spring] hahahahahaa

[Master] lol

[Carissa] Future insight is limited to 30 days, but I'd think for Astrology you'd know that if Mars is in Retrograde it is 150 and not 139. Or something.

[Master] SO what TMO is asking is does any Priest have a spell that is in the Divination Sphere that would not normally work in The Mist

[TMO] but it's daytime

[Lisa] augury needs dragon bones - keep that in mind for next time

[Master] so you can test if it works here

[Lisa] cheaper than 1,000 gp thing

[Master] Priciencies do not count

[Carissa] Ahhh should grab some for next time, good point

[TMO] Tacharin is worth more than 1000gp, I'm sure

[TMO] (actually I have no clue)

[Lisa] Bixi has emotion control if she can cast 3 rds

[TMO] (but it's my best guess

[Master] So Carissa, Lemon and Spring can look through their spells for their characters

[Lisa] she can make mage happy or sad

[Lisa] 3rd lvl spells sorry

[Master] Is that a Divination spell?

[Carissa] I did. Only Augury for spell is useful here from what I see for Rae

[Lisa] no I was just looking at her spells - I like spells

[Master] grins

[Carissa] Rae can add some Dissension's Feast and make everyone argue for a few rounds.

[TMO] we already argue enough. :P

[Master] chuckles I can make you argue ofr way more than 3 rounds

[Lemon] I can create 20 gallons of water

[Carissa] Oh wait. Rae also has Divine Romantic Interest. That's a divination spell. Useful? Probably not right now, lol

[Master] I would argue yes, because Divination spells do NOT work in THE MIST

[Master] so if they work here......

[Carissa] As in just trying to see if Divination spells work? Guess that's where I'm confused.

[Spring] looking ...

[Carissa] Useful for our current situation? I don't know. Useful for seeing if Divination works? Sure.

[Lemon] So are woe about to find out of the arrogant mage has a secret crush on Indigo?

[Lisa] which is why I was worried if he had books and could teleport away from the inn

[TMO] a spell that could tell us what year it is or if we could go through the boundary safely would be best, but just knowing if they work or not is good [Carissa] lol

[Master] You have Howard and other in The Mist in 350 and you have others in the Inn that is not in The Mist in what seems to be a different time

[Master] You have a couple of things to test

[Carissa (to GM only)] Character sheet for Raelynn modified:

[Master] 1 - are you affected by The Mist here

[Master] 2 - if you go outside of this bubble will you be in 350 or what time?

[Carissa] Forgot I could just look at Divination spells via edit. The actual spell, Divination, is 4th level so not yet available. Detect Spirits could maybe be useful?

[Master] 3 If you come back to this bubble will you be in 350 again or what time?

[Lisa] does a +5 shield = a "similar token worth 1,000 gp"? similar to a gem inlaid wand or dragon bones? That super shield would have to be over 1000 gp but not sure it counts as a token

[Carissa] Oooh good idea

[Master] yes to Lisa that shield is well over 1,000 GP

[Lemon] Oh! Right! Knowing which way is north is a divination spell. I just put that together lol, sorry, my brain is is slow

[Lemon] Maybe we could get someone or something else to come in and see if they end up in the same time? But why would we? Brer and the horse both did it, everything seems fine to us?

[Master] Brer came IN from 350 to this time/place

[Master] no one has tried to go back out yet

[Carissa] Yes, horse went both out of time to Howard, and back into this time, without much issue minus that one roll to come back into the inn./

[Lemon] I have a Helping Hand spell that can maybe go fetch someone to test on lol

[Lemon] Yeah, but we don't know about the roll

[Lisa] but the horse only cares that there are apples. She doesn't care what time it is

[Carissa] Brer and Horse both rolled against magic to come back into the inn. There was no roll to leave the inn.

[Master] Indigo XP award: 100. Next level in 28212.

[Carissa] So if she didn't care what time it was going out, she could go out? But there was still something to roll against coming back in?

[Lemon] Maybe when we stopped the inn, we stopped it in many different times all at once, and the missing people are in some other times

[Lisa] we didn't have to roll when the hourglass was in tact

[Spring (to GM only)] Character sheet for Snezana modified: Notes - CHANGED.

[Lisa] strange

[Lisa] we all just crossed

[Carissa] Yeah I was wondering about that...

[Lemon] It was still covered in mist when we came in, wasn't it?

[Master] Yes

[Master] when the magic item was working

[Lemon] so whatever barrier is there now wasn't there then

[Lisa] delivery at my door - brb

[Lisa] I am away from the keyboard.

[Spring] hm as a spell i also have augury

[Spring] and as a skil i have omen ereading

[Master] Skills have always worked in The Mist but spells have not

[Spring] wait, spiritual hammer is an L2, i marked it off wrong

[Spring] oh no i didn't

[Master] So what is the idea of leaving the Inn and heading into The Mist again?

[Master] and or coming out of The Mist and visiting the Inn

[TMO] one finger at a time

[Spring] frankly i just wanted to tie him up and proceed out the door with him, but others may want to survive

[Master] You can go back to questioning him if you wish

[Master] I wanted ou to have a chance to discuss ideas

[Spring] ooo hallucinatory forest, always a winner

[Carissa] Always the sunshine spells we can try, too.

[Spring] giant insect, a perennial favorite, though nt likely to do much

[Master] the goal is to test if your spells that normally do not work now work here at the Inn

[Lemon] So if divination spells don't work in the mist, and I've always lived in the mist... how do I know about those spells?

[Master] You know that your goddess grants those spells to devote followers and that you are prevented from accessing the full glory of your goddess

[Master] is why to be frustrated defeated by The Mist

[Lisa] I am back at the keyboard.

[Lemon] So do I know it's the mist that causes that? Because if I do, then maybe I just want to try some stuff now that I"m out of the mist?

[Master] yes to Lemon

[Lemon] Great, I've always wated to predict the weather

[TMO] need to step away for a few

[TMO] I am away from the keyboard.

[Master] a weight has been lifted off of your shoulders

[Lemon] Everyone step back, Bixi is about to do the greatest weather prediction of her generation!

[Master] smiles

[Lemon] :P

[Carissa] lol go for it

[Lemon] Lol it's 3rd level and I only can do one of those, is it worth it?

[Lemon] Oh, I can do Read Magic? Does anything in here have magical inscriptions?

[Carissa] I don't think we'll be doing any battles so if you don't see any other 3rd spell that may be useful in a day, sure.

[Master] read magic does not count for the divination spell

[Carissa] But always up to you when it comes to experimenting and spell use

[Lemon] Oh

[Master] that only effects a very small area

[Master] and evey mage needs to use it so it does work in The Mist for arms length from the mage

[Lemon] Ohhh, ok

[Carissa] So if they have short arms...

[Master] lol

[Lemon] lol

[Lisa] mages need to memorize their spells every day - not a big deal today but were your spells set up?

[Master] Lisa makes a very good point

[Lisa] looked and no - when we go out next after this we'll have to work on that

[Master] only have specific spells

Lisa has left the game on Fri Aug 13 22:11:36 EDT 2021

[Carissa] Uhhh but she didn't do anything, kLoOge??

[Master] but priests have a selection to choose from

[Lemon] Weather prediction is a priest spell

Lisa has joined the game on Fri Aug 13 22:12:00 EDT 2021

Lisa is receiving the map Inn of the lost eagle...

Lisa has received the map Inn of the lost eagle.

[Lisa] yes - meant the Read Magic

[Lisa] been a while since Klooge went all weird on me

[Lemon] Oh, yeah, and that would apparently not be helpful here anyway

[Master] OK so I will go use the restroom and be back in a moment then you will cast what you will and we move forward

[Master] I am away from the keyboard.

[Carissa] kLoOgE has it out for you

[Lemon] So yeah, I guess I can just predict the weather for the first time ever, if no one else has something more useful lol

[Lisa] always

[Spring] i.m not finding anything useful

[Lemon] I appreciate all the help :)

[Carissa] Either that or Augury is my vote

[Master] I am back at the keyboard.

[Spring] unable to stay awake

[Spring] sorry i have to go early

[Spring] afer arriving late

[Spring] sigh

[Spring] gnite yall

[Carissa] (sorry Spring, night!)

[Master] Be at peace Spring

[Lemon] Goodnight!

[Master] They will solve this

Spring has left the game on Fri Aug 13 22:19:00 EDT 2021

[Master] OK

[Master] so the four of you

[Master] which tests will make you feel comfortable ?

[Master] and what do you want to make sure you accomplish tonight?

[Carissa] Spell casting first is easiest :P

[Lemon] With a half ghost hanging around? I'm not about to be "comfortable"

[Carissa] Can always make him full ghost...

[Lemon] lol

[Carissa] Since shield is needed for Augury, and TMO is currently afk, I suppose predict weather is up?

[Master] so Lemon have Bixi cast Predict Weather to see what happens

[Master] here where there is no Mist

[Lemon] Oh, right now?

[Master] only the three of you

[Master] no time like the present

[Carissa] (or the past?)

[Master] grins

[Lemon] lol!

[Master] See Carissa gets it

[Lisa] lol

[Lemon] Just randomly, or should I explain myself before I just randomly predict the weather

[Master] explain

[Lemon] scrolling up to see where we left off

[TMO] I am back at the keyboard.

[TMO] sorry, stomach upset, too many chips

[Carissa] That's why you're supposed to share

[TMO] *shocked*

[TMO] WHAT?

[TMO] SAYS WHO?

[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo?

[Indigo (Lisa)] :)

[Carissa] Your stomach!!

[Carissa] Also Indigo. Both of those a very important.

[Lemon] And my stomach. It also wants chips

[TMO] You've met my stomach

[Lemon] Ok so when we left off, TMO was about to just leave... is that not the plan anymore?

[TMO] I need to leave again?

[N'laea (Carissa)] (well easier to predict the weather outside if that's what you mean leave)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (don't even have to pick up where we left off, you can just have Bixi...leave, lol)

[Master] weather prediction outside of the Inn but inside the bubble

[Lemon] lol, I'm sorry, I'm confused, and my pill alarm keeps going off and I keep snoozing it

[Master] go take your pills

[Master] you can't have your pudding if you don't eat your meat

[Lemon] How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?

[Master] so Bixi casting?

[Lemon] sure

[Master] go for it

[N'laea (Carissa)] (what if it's blood pudding?)

[Lemon] idk that's not in the song

[Indigo (Lisa)] IC time again

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) looks at Brer

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Before you go back out to the mist, I want to try something...

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (How do I move myself to outside?)

[Master] Outside the Inn ? you can just say so or move your icon outside of the Inn to the courtyard

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Ok great)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I have to be outside for the weather prediction?)

[Master] yes

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods and motions her ahead of him.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Lol, so much pressure. Raelynn is a priest too, yes? She would understand about me trying the weather thing?)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Bixi Fizzlebang moved 61'04".

Indigo (Lisa) looks at the others "We should probably see what's gonna happen"

Indigo (Lisa) follows

[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo moved 41'02".

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (How did you descrbe it? Couldn't access the full power or the what?)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (yes)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (she grew up outside the Mist)

N'laea (Carissa) stays to keep an eye on the mage unless he follows

[Master] He is staying inside

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (then so is N'laea)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Raelynn... have you had access to your full power when you have traveled outside the mist?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Hmm?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Access to my full powers...?

Raelynn (Carissa) casually petting horse

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] I've never been outside the mist, and I've been told that outside the mist, the goddess allows you to access... power might not be the right word?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Oh!

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Yes, this Mist isn't really nice.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] I want to see if I have this gift here at the inn, where it's too bright

[Raelynn (Carissa)] The first time I entered it, I promised a traveler I met on the road I'd find out who his true love was, but I couldn't tell anything at all! It was very disheartening.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Oh! That sounds very interesting

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Oh! Yes, I bet you would! You should try it if you've never had a chance before.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Ok, now to remember how lol)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I remember targeting... kind of...)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (you should be able to just roll without targeting)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Nope, can't remember)

[Master] no need to target

[Master] just cast

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (how?)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (oh!)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Bixi Fizzlebang casts a spell against : Weather Prediction: I can predict the weather for the next (5) 5 days.

[Master] Bixi is surprised to see clearly that there will be clear weather for the next two days and then rain will be there in the evening and for the next full day

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (lol, I love all the buildup to becoming a weatherperson)

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) excitedly "IT'S GOING TO BE RAINY IN THREE DAYS!"

Raelynn (Carissa) smiles

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Well there is no Mist here so I suppose those spells would work again.

Brer Necholas (TMO) runs his fingers through his beard, thinking.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] I wonder if the stable is safe for the horse when the rain starts

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Hmmm..

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Well, if we have to leave, I suppose I'm ready, but it was nice to experience this

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Can either of you ask if going back through is possible?

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) shakes head

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Ummm, maybe, but it's expensive to ask about the future. Unless you have dragon bones or something on you?

Brer Necholas (TMO) shakes his head. "We let the dragon go."

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Is the expense sacrificed, or merely used?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] It doesn't have to be dragon bones.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Oh it's fine! You can use the same item many times. It'd be ridiculous to get new dragon bones each time! Although one has to have those or something else to start with....

[Raelynn (Carissa)] It's only one question per casting, though so it has to be a really, really good question about the immediate future.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Tacharin and Rhestin here are quite valuable, but I need them. If it's no risk to them, you can use them.

Raelynn (Carissa) smiles, "But what is your question?"

[Raelynn (Carissa)] It doesn't have to be exact, just... what am I looking for?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Is it a Yes/No question, or can we ask for more complicated answers?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Complicated works, but never expect the future to be very specific.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] It could be, "Will I fall in love?" and the answer would say, "Love is in your future!" but what love and how far in the future and who??

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] In that case, "How can we leave this town and re-enter the Mist safely?"

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] 'Walk' is possible, or 'You can't"

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] or a procedure to do it safely.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Hmm...

Raelynn (Carissa) shrugs, "I think that might work."

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Simple is often the easiest way.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] I just need a few minutes to cast. Which do you want me to use?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Attack: Tacharin 1H:: is now ARMED.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Tacharin is valuable in both money and personally.

Raelynn (Carissa) smiles and takes it and sits down

Brer Necholas (TMO) sits with her.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Just make sure that jerkface doesn't come out here and show his face while I concentrate.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I have faith in you.

Raelynn (Carissa) nods and concentrates

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (The base chance for receiving a meaningful reply is 70%, plus 1% foreach level of the priest casting the spell)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (so for Raelynn it'll be 75%)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Raelynn casts a spell against : Augury: I ask a question about a future task and recieve a reply with (70+5) 75% certainty.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (does it need to be a secret roll Bob?

[Master] what is the question

[Raelynn (Carissa)] "How can we leave this town and re-enter the Mist of our proper time safely?"

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Will we get to ask a second one? About coming back in?)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (d100) [1d100=30] 30

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (Oops meant to do a secret roll)

[Master] "Simply walk out"

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (forgot that red button only works for prof checks)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] "Simply walk out."

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Any other questions? I think I can do this one or two more times...

[Raelynn (Carissa) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Raelynn modified: Notes - CHANGED.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Is it safe to re-enter the bubble after that? Can Orthinmadrigal leave the bubble? What year is it inside the bubble? How can we destroy the Mist forever?

Brer Necholas (TMO) shrugs. "Questions are easy. Take your pick.

Raelynn (Carissa) laughs

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Well I can only ask so many times... and it's only for the immediate future so while I'd love to know the last question, I don't think we'll find out.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Let's see if we can safely come back first?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] If we can, then we can try this again another time, yes?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] And I don't care what happens to jerkface to waste a spell on him. If we see the stars, maybe I can tell the year?

Raelynn (Carissa) nods at Bixi

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Yes, I'm thinking that asking how to safely re-enter is best.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (double checking real quick that's a proper question to ask)

[Master] You ask what you wish and then I will answer

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (fine fine, but might not be the answer we want if asked wrong :P)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (like on ebig magic 8 ball)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (lmao exactly)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (Bob would never twist an answer! ;) )

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Hmm so I should phrase it...

[Raelynn (Carissa)] "How do we safely re-enter this time and space from outside of it?"

[Raelynn (Carissa)] How does that sound?

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) shrugs "I have no experience with this, I trust your judgement more than my own"

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I might say this bubble or non-Mist area, in case we are still in 350 of DragonFen, then eaving the bubble isn't really leaving our time or space?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] But I'm no legal expert

[Raelynn (Carissa)] I don't know if bubble is a legal word...

Brer Necholas (TMO) shrugs.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] What about, "this time, space, and area in which we are currently in?"

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Whatever you feel is best.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] I'm probably thinking too hard on it for a vague answer. Let's see how it goes.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] "How do we safely re-enter this specific time, space, area that we are in from outside it if we leave it?"

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Raelynn casts a spell against : Augury: I ask a question about a future task and recieve a reply with (70+5) 75% certainty.

[Raelynn (Carissa) (to Master only)] (d100) [1d100=3] 3

[Raelynn (Carissa) (to Master only)] Ouch :(

[Raelynn (Carissa) (to Master only)] or wait is that good? I can't decide if it needs to be less than 75 or more than 25...

[Master] You can go be safe when you go WHEN you want to go

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (ughh not this WHEN stuff again! :P)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] "You can go be safe when you go WHEN you want to go."

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (More riddles!)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Umm....so do what you will with that!

[Raelynn (Carissa)] There was definitely an emphasis on that WHEN in there....

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Umm, the second when

[Raelynn (Carissa)] I guess because this is a WHEN and not a WHERE?

[Raelynn (Carissa) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Raelynn modified: Notes - CHANGED.

Raelynn (Carissa) hands back Tacharin

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Well, we knew more than we did before.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Do we?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] We can always try again soon if you think we'll need it, but that's something.

Brer Necholas (TMO) takes it and carefully resheathes it.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] So are we leaving WHEN to go... er, to Howard?

Raelynn (Carissa) waves over at Howard

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (forgot poor Craigh was over there, too)

Howard Plum (Lisa) waves awkwardly

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Are you all all right?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] The mage that caused all this is a jackass, but otherwise we're fine!

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Just trying to figure out WHEN this is! I think....

Brer Necholas (TMO) rolls up noto his knees and then carefully stands up.

Raelynn (Carissa) gracefully stands up and dusts herself off

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Everything all right out there?

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I suppose. There is not much to do out here

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Do you want some apples?

[Craigh (TMO)] The boundary hasn't moved at all.

Craigh (TMO) yawns. "Neither have we."

Howard Plum (Lisa) looks at Craigh "Do you want apples?"

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Hmm, I wonder if it moves slowly or maybe it's stuck like this?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] I've seen Raelynn roll apples, her aim is very good

Craigh (TMO) shrugs. "I'm not hungry yet."

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] How much longer are you going to be exploring?

Raelynn (Carissa) shrugs and looks back at Brer and Indigo

[Raelynn (Carissa)] I like the sunshine so I'm not in a rush, but I also kind of am done with... all of this.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Until we figure out who is staying and who is leaving and what to do with the magical sand?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] We probably know how it happened, and maybe why, but no idea what will happen next.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (grrr - Indigo says)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (lol)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] I don't like the half-ghost, but he HAS given me a lot of story ideas

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I think the sand should be gathered. Maybe young Raelynn here can spend some time asking if it can leave Hourglass safely, and if so, take it to Branwyn for study or storage.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Jerkface might be able to tell you that.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (that's a good question!)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (very good question)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I don't want to destroy this bubble, if at all possible.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (he kept saying not to touch it but do we trust him?)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (lol not in the least)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] It would seem destroying an oasis in a Mist desert would be a tragedy

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I trust that he is selfish and if he told us not to touch it, it's most likely not for our own benefit that he was saying that)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I can see this place becoming a popular visit, perhaps too much so.

[Master] Yoiu have all your information

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] But hiding it away would also be a tragedy.

[Indigo (Lisa)] Yeah I don't want to hurt Gerry too!

Lisa has left the game on Fri Aug 13 23:24:11 EDT 2021

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (we do?)

Lisa has joined the game on Fri Aug 13 23:24:27 EDT 2021

Lisa is receiving the map Inn of the lost eagle...

Lisa has received the map Inn of the lost eagle.

[Master] Can you think of any way to learn more before you experiment?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (whining and begging?)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (Cast Augury again, duh ;) )

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I can talk to horses? Extra question marks because I'm not sure?)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (if she wants to use up all her 2nd level spells, she technically can cast it two more times)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (if you mean Speak to Animals, yes)

[Lisa] (we haven't started cleaning it up. If we actually take action like we are going to remove it, he may talk more. Or lie more. Not sure)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] It might be safest for me to clean up the sand.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (...We could ask Gerry to sweep it up for us...)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (very true)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (Brer would be very disappointed in you)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I mean, he's the employee here... when people break glass at my work I have to clean up after them...)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (even if someone brings in a flask of hydrochloric acid and drops it?)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Good point)

[Master] It seems you have two ways forward, someone crosses the barrier back to Howard or go back inside and talk more with the Mage

[Master] and perhaps also clean up as you are talking with him

[Master] which of the two do you want to accomplish tonight first

[Master] then next week we wrap up the other

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (I'm game for either

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (clean unless we have someone to go across the barrier)

[Master] Lisa?

[Master] Lemon

[Indigo (Lisa)] sounds fine to me

Lisa has left the game on Fri Aug 13 23:32:04 EDT 2021

[Master] so two for goign inside and talking and cleaning

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Maybe we can go tell the mage that we've divined that it's safe to go out... and see if he volunteers lol)

[Master] Bixi Fizzlebang moved 11'07".

[Master] Raelynn moved 45'04".

Lisa has joined the game on Fri Aug 13 23:32:52 EDT 2021

Lisa is receiving the map Inn of the lost eagle...

Lisa has received the map Inn of the lost eagle.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (not Rae, she's staying outside with the horse)

[Master] Raelynn moved 47'03".

[Master] Bixi Fizzlebang moved 13'04".

[Master] Indigo moved 12'08".

[N'laea (Carissa)] (benefit of two chars)

[Master] So back in the Inn

[Master] You find the mage carefully gathering the glass shards

[Master] and pushing the sand with his fingers into a pile

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Someone was supposed to be watching him!)

[Master] N'la was

[N'laea (Carissa)] (Wait N'laea would stopped him if she knew that before hand!)

[Master] Stopped him from what?

[N'laea (Carissa)] (from moving :) )

[Master] How?

[N'laea (Carissa)] (....glaring!! But really, probably just arguing with him and/or physical restraint)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (lol, exactly... is he not still tied up? I can't remember)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (there's a spare spear over there. ;) )

[Lisa] (smack him with the flat side of her long sword?)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (LOL TMO)

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I am going to clean this up

[N'laea (Carissa)] No. Others can do that.

[N'laea (Carissa)] N'laea: Observation check: (d20) [1d20=3] 3 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 10!!

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] and make sure that no one accidently causes other problems

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] OH? you want him to do that? points at TInlin (the farmer)

[N'laea (Carissa)] Ah, or are you going to try to remake your hourglass? I certainly do not trust you.

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] You think you can trust him with that kind of magic?

[N'laea (Carissa)] More than you.

Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master) looks around

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] do you see a forge? or any fire?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] You expect me to create new glass out of thin air?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I am flattered

[N'laea (Carissa)] Fire is easy.

[N'laea (Carissa)] There is other glass here to use.

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Not enough

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] You can help me if you wish

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] but we need to make sure that we keep this together

[N'laea (Carissa)] (man that suddenly sounds like a trap)

[N'laea (Carissa)] Why?

Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master) moves to start sweeping up the sand into a file with his hands

[N'laea (Carissa)] Gerry, you have a broom?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] NO

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] No brooms

[N'laea (Carissa)] Why?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] we need every grain we can save

[N'laea (Carissa)] For?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] this is what is keeping us NOW

[N'laea (Carissa)] And what do you plan to do with the sand?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] stay NOW

N'laea (Carissa) rolls eyes

[N'laea (Carissa)] And if even a touch of it leaves?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Unless you plan on building a forge that a demon can bathe in

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] and the breath of an angel

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] blown into the glass

[N'laea (Carissa)] You still assume the govenor will let you stay NOW and not help drag you to your future.

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] until then all we have is this sand

[N'laea (Carissa)] Until then? So you plan to try again?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] You said I was planning it not me

[N'laea (Carissa)] So if some of that sand disappears?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] NOW weakens

[N'laea (Carissa)] The barrier gets smaller?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] You might kill Tinlin

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] or Gerry

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] or all of us

[N'laea (Carissa)] Or you?

[N'laea (Carissa)] (you all can come in at any point, I'm guessing)

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Will you survive being alive twice

N'laea (Carissa) shrugs, "If my gods wants it."

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I am not going out there to find out

[N'laea (Carissa)] Once more, you assume this is your decision to make.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Kill or temporal-y displace?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Are you telling me you want to risk dying, committing suicide because you do not understand teh magic you are dealing with?

[N'laea (Carissa)] I am only asking questions.

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I know that I need to do

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Would people die or would they go back to the time they came from?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] you could try to kill me

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] and in the end will that kill me? or kill all of us?

Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master) gesturs to Gerry,

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] He already told you that everyone that came here dispaeared

[N'laea (Carissa)] So you do not know?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] You told me there were ghosts outside

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Do you want to test?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] So you also don't understand the magic you are dealing with?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I understand the magical device I created

[Indigo (Lisa)] But that was when it was working. It's broken now.

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I do not undertand what is happening now

[Indigo (Lisa)] Raelynn said we would be okay leaving

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Then feel free to beleive her Admiral Indigo

[Indigo (Lisa)] Not sure about you ...

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Go do what she says

[Indigo (Lisa)] I will. I have to. I can't stay here

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] You cannot stay NOW

[Indigo (Lisa)] But if the hourglass has to stay here then it needs to be hidden and protected to make sure everyone who stays is safe.

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Yes

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] What would happen if we stayed?

[Indigo (Lisa)] So that people don't come here and try to steal it to try and take the Mist away from their homes

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] The Mist is there WHEN they are

[Indigo (Lisa)] No one can ever know that the hourglass is what makes this place sunny

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I agree

[Indigo (Lisa)] No one can know how to destroy this place and all the people here

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I do not know

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (This timey wimey stuff doesn't go well with my brain)

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] (good)

[Indigo (Lisa)] But the people here should have a choice whether they want to try to leave, shouldn't they?

[Indigo (Lisa)] We can't force people to do things

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] I am not trying to keep you here,

[Indigo (Lisa)] Not me. Them!

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Your governor told Gerry he owns this place now

Gerry the barkeep (Master) nods

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] She did say that I can stay here

[Indigo (Lisa)] But if they leave they could talk about the hourglass

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] But how will you get supplies?

Indigo (Lisa) scratches his head "This is hard"

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] Maybe if we stay here and you go home?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] Go WHEN

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] When? Where?

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] If you bring us back supplies?

[Indigo (Lisa)] That's why it would be interesting to see if the ale we drank today is replaced tomorrow

[Indigo (Lisa)] Or did that stop with the hourglass breaking

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] OH

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] OH

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] I understand!

[Indigo (Lisa)] You do?

Gerry the barkeep (Master) turns to the cask and OPENS the spout to pour it all out onto the floor, not touching the sand

[Indigo (Lisa)] Hey!!

Gerry the barkeep (Master) THUMPS the cask up on the bar

[Indigo (Lisa)] I would have drank more of that

[N'laea (Carissa)] There was probably a better way to use it all...

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] If this is full in the morning then we are ..... back Where? When? we were?

Indigo (Lisa) grins

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] WHEN

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] and if it is empty then we are here and Now?

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] N... yes you have it Gerry

[Orthinmadrigal the Amazing (Master)] NOW

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (So the question is... do we stay here tonight, or stay somewhere else tonight and try to come back tomorrow?)

[Gerry the barkeep (Master)] and if you come back in the morning Indigo?

[Indigo (Lisa)] We can do that

[N'laea (Carissa)] (We weren't the originals here so the safe answer is to leave)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (might not matter, but we'll find out)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Oh, right, the disappearing people)

[Master] AND BREAK

[Master] so next week we start with who leaves and who stays

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] ow)

[Master] grins

[Lemon] Woo! I finally made it to the end!

[Lisa] yay!

[Master] I do hope this is a fun puzzling solvable problem for you?

[Carissa] Ehhhhh

[Master] confusing and winding

[Lisa] yes

[TMO] I could be very wrong, but I think I understand it

[Lemon] Wibbly Wobbly

[Master] good

[Carissa] It is, just harder when it gets late :P

[Lemon] It's fine, I am taking so many notes IRL for stories about half-ghosts that time travel

[Lemon] Bixi is going to write the most confusing ghost story ever

[Carissa] For you to write up and post on the site, awesome!

[Master] grins

[TMO] lol

[Master] and yes to Carissa

[Master] I like that idea

[TMO] I need to add a note to Brer's account that the shield has a name

[TMO] no idea when that happened

[Lisa] he had to set up a demon hot tub to make the glass - lol

[TMO] but it makes sense for him

[Lemon] lol!

[Carissa] lol

[Master] Which also means Lisa?

[Carissa] We're still going to Hell?

[Carissa] Wait no Demons are the Abyss...?

[Lisa] not sure what you want me to connect

[Lisa] mages and their demons are annoying

[Master] and The Mist blocks other planar activity

[Lisa] yes

[Lemon] Well my benadryl is kicking my butt, I'm out. Goodnight everyone!

[Lisa] closer to go to the Inn than to Loosend for out of Mist experiences?

[Master] by weeks

[Lisa] Goodnight Lemon!

Lemon has left the game on Sat Aug 14 00:03:09 EDT 2021

[Master] the Inn is inside of Dragon Fen

[Lisa] taunting the mage with her magic as he has none

[Master] Looseend is two weeks away

[TMO] g'nite y'all

[Carissa] Easier to get to Hell from here

[Carissa] I'm just throwing spaghetti at the wall now, sorry.

[Lisa] Branwyn tries for a weekend getaway and the Inn gets over run by hellhounds

[TMO] enjoy cleaning that up

[Lisa] Goodnight TMO :)
