Elements RPG! Part 3

Sekhor:

Sekhor awoke in the morning, quickly packed up his things, and grabbed Mordekai, setting off toward the Gravity Basin. The two spoke amicably along the way


OOC: There really isn't much for Sekhor and Mordekai to be doing at the moment, since Icy is gone, not until we get to the Basin at least. I'll take over Mordekai for now.

[Bloodshadow]

Well, Jonathan already killed the Flying Leukocyte, but I suppose trivial things like that don't matter that much

[Purity_Riot]

OOC: then what have we been waiting for all this time?

[Bloodshadow]

I was waiting for your story part

Huh? What happened to your Xanriel part that I saw a moment ago? You didn't have to delete it, because I couldn't care less who killed the cell.

[Purity_Riot]

I only posted because I thought the cell wasn't dead. Xanriel's not even remotely concerned with the appearance of the cell.

[Sirenes]

Alexandria wakes the following morning, releasing her air bubble and breaking down her tent, compacting it to fit in her pocket. She puts her glider back together, yawning all the while as she wakes. Digging in another of her pockets, she pulls out a few coffee beans and tosses them into her mouth, chewing on them. They tasted horrible, but they woke her up and it wouldn't do to fly while only half awake. Summoning an updraft, she takes to the skies and starts on her way to the Land of Light once more to deliver a package. In the distance, she could see the caravan on it's way into the Earth land's mountains. She had a feeling it wasn't the last she would be seeing on them. Her father had always told her than the job cause you to meet some real characters.

Sirenes squeals loudly, jumping back and clinging to Xanriel as the winged cell launches itself at them out of nowhere. "I'm sick of things jumpin' out the woodwork at us!" She mumbles "I want to get out of here."

I'm just waiting for everyone else to get to the part in the deserts of time...

[Purity_Riot]

OOC: The only person in the desert of time is Blood

InC:

Upon the attack of the shrieking creature, Xanriel intinctively and without warning pulled Sirenes close to his chest, folding in all 18 wings, creating a wall of feathers. He nodded along with Sirenes.
"Aye, the sooner we get out of this swamp, the better. I want to go back to the heavens, and take Sirenes with us." He said, turning to Catyrael, "assuming that's alright Sir?"

[Helios]

The Archangel of Justice appeared startled for a second by his old friend's query, having been distracted from his pondering on the continuation of the mandate and campaign against Morte.

"As you noticed, Heaven has changed significantly since your departure at the end of the Second Golden Age. The general attitude is no longer quite as welcoming and friendly to others; whereas before we feasted and flourished upon diversity, Heaven has become a closed society. Even a daughter of a mighty Archangel of War may not be welcomed by some presently. Fortunately, the Chief Guardian of the Peace, Vaderael, is another old friend of mine, and you may remember that he once served as a Sword. He may be moved and inclined to grant Sirenes an exception upon Council approval."

Turning to the rest of the group, he also said, "Everyone should be aware, in fact, that upon deliberation, I have decided to request reinforcements. Our original mandate does not involve nor include having to storm a heavily fortified fortress in the heart of hostile territory. As such, in our current state, we are not prepared for it. Fortunately, Emparael has always been on standby ever since our departure, and should be arriving with an Army unit soon to assist us."

_____________________________________

OOC: Of course, Emparael will be arriving at an appropriate chronological moment, but perhaps not solely for the purpose for which Catyrael has requested...

Further, as important information concerning the organisation of the Hosts of Heaven:

1) The Army is the standard military force of Heaven, comprising most of the Angelic warriors.

2) The Guardians of the Peace are the Army's elite forces; they are usually dispatched to attain objectives that the Army would face difficulty in reaching. However, they usually serve as the protectors and guards of Heaven.

3) The Sword of Justice is Catyrael's personal elite force created for the purpose of enforcing Heaven's Justice and Will on the Middle Plane; they are the equivalent of the Guardians, though they are not a formation of the Army.

4) If there is anything conceivably and possibly more dangerous than an army of Angels, it would be the Winged Cavalry: Angels on Pegasi

5) If there exists anything conceivably and possibly more dangerous than an army of Angels on Pegasi, it would be the Riders of the Dawn: Angels mounted on Light Dragons

Xanriel reflected on this information, kissed Sirenes on the cheek and then grinned.
"If they won't let her in, then I'll have to talk to my Father. Don't tell me Heaven has become so closed that even a vote of confidence from the Master of Light, and Miracle himself, can't get in the daughter of one of the most famous and tragic angels of all time? I'd be surprised if the council doesn't invite her to come before them themselves!" Xanriel said with a chuckle.
"I am a little concerned with Emparael's arrival. You know he and i never quite got along. He's determined that you only gave me the position of First Sword because of my Father. He called my swordsmanship into question thousands of times over the ages, and never once agreed to a duel. Said it was beneath him." Xanriel sighs, exasperated at the memory, "It couldn't have anything to do with my Singing, or my merits in combat."

[Sirenes]

"I really don't want there to be any trouble over me. If I'm not allowed to go, I'm sure I'll be fine with the others." She gives Xanriel a small smile and and strokes his cheek, planting a soft kiss on his lips. "And I'm sure that guy is just jealous. Your skills are amazing and I'm sure everyone else here will agree. I have to admit, from the way you react to just hearing about him I don't think I want to meet him."

[Bloodshadow]

@Helios: When will the Bloodshadow - Emparael duel happen, after the Morte fight? I'd prefer if it's after, since the duel is going to take a considerable amount of time to finish. Also, Jonathan will enter his second dragon form in the Morte fight, so he can use that form against Emparael later.

What is the exact nature behind the Bloodshadow - Emparael conflict during the First Golden Age? Maybe, as the Archangel of War, Emparael tried to invade the Abyss?

I'll post something when I have time.
