Date Posted: 13:23:48 05/28/03 Wed In reply to: Dark FIre 's message, "Re: ~*~*approaching*~*~" on 12:17:04 05/28/03 Wed ~*~*his dragon landed a fair distance from the area, but the loud thud of its feet drew your attention. he was sitting on its head as it lumbered closer to your group. when it did stop a few yards from you, Ma'ar climbed down off its back, taking his dear sweet time to do so. you did notice something different about him- where his wings had been, there was nothing more than two bloody stumps. he did not seem to notice. that, right away, sparked your curiosity. even if he had never been able to fly, he had at least kept his wings looking decent. he made his way over to you, then aknowledged Cye's death (at least he wasnt heartless enough to ignore him) and pulled a scroll out of one of his pockets. he tossed it to Dark Fire, then backed up a pace or two and leaned against his dragon's leg. you noticed that, aside from his wings being torn from his back, that he had a terrible limp as well, and you were not sure, but you thought that you saw something jagged sticking out of his lower leg beneath, but you could not be sure of what it was because his pants were in the way. you really started to wonder now.... as you looked closer, he was covered with bruises and scratches, and there was blood seeping through his clothes on his arms and back, and a little bit around his ankle. his right shoulder looked dislocated to some extent, like somebody had tried to put it in a sling and quit halfway through. one of his eyes had a gash across it, and something had tried to slit his throat, but had not gone quite deep enough. you watched a few of your friends attempt to heal him, but all fail due to his shields. he did not want to be touched. he shot a sharp glance at you, so you quickly turned your attention to the scroll as it was unraveled. it said, quite simply, 'Seeking the light that drives the shadows' and nothing more. you looked at Ma'ar like he had lost his mind.*~*~ ...if we are going to help your other friend, we will need that to get past the guardians of the Fire Storm. that is their password. the parchment is proof that we did not overhear it, and Zora there is proof that we know people within the guardians society. don't look at me like that..... seriously, its creepy. ~*~*he shrugged with his good shoulder, then winced slightly when he pulled the other. at least you knew why he had been taking his time getting off his dragon..... you had forgotten about the scroll. you wanted to know what had happened to Ma'ar- even if he was an evil creep, he still seemed like a friend to go through all this trouble to help you when you were just going to kill him at the end of all this. that, and you had never seen a scratch on him- much less looking like he just crawled out of hell. you were about to ask when you began to think... back when Psyke called Xatu's Cry. Ma'ar had not been hit, so clearly the god Xatu had avoided him. what ever had happened had not been some random street fight.... not by mortal hand, and not by hand of a deity. whatever had happened had involved at least a handfull of Spirits who could get through the shielding that you could not. you could tell that much by looking at him, and that was probably why he had not healed himself- because spirit wounds could not be healed by magic. perhaps that was part of the reason he had those shields up- to keep you from finding that out... you needed to know what had happened, for his sake and yours. this was going to drive you insane if you did not have an answer.*~*~ [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
