<font color=plum>Thanks <font color=cyan>Larry.</font> I'll post later this evening.</font>

Arcades, watch for my post signaling you in the morning...

Larry, I will begin the spell of bringing one of the ancients to the forums tomorrow... he will be my only hope of cleaning the ley lines, and coupled with Cyril's clasp, and the help of my wolves and a few surprises that I'll PM you about, /arcadeds and I will start towards the group after dealing with the bane wolves and the ley lines...

Cyril, should I try to retrieve the ring?

OOC>>>Besides those that have posted already...I am pretty sure that you will only find the half-eaten remains of most of the party. I mean business when I say that it is time to conclude, and death comes to those that hang out in the underdark of the forums very long.

But that is ok. Between Cyril and me,,,there are many plans...Depending on circumstances will envoke this or that plan. Hehe...this will be fun.

PM'd you back Larry......


LOL, looks like things are getting interesting for the group...

sorry guys, I'm working as fast as I can to help you!! :D

oh and BTW, Larry...really now, this icon is just horrible LMAO...
He looks like he pee'd himself...

You get http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/noncgi/red_dragon.gif at 1500 posts. Sorry...seems you are gonna have to do ALOT of RP gaming to get there! Mwa ha!

Oh...and I PM'ed you back

<font color=skyblue>TAO</font> - The ring is now out of reach. Perhaps it might be possible to learn something more about it, but there is no time to do so in the light of Larry's last post for your character. You gotta like those banewolves! :D

And on that note, I'll wish everyone luck against Larry's minions and return to post again some time late next week -- which is about as frequently as my present schedule will allow.</font>

Zachary: A most wonderful post! I could not have expected anything better. Welcome back.

To all others: As you might have guessed...or should have guessed, since the Dead Wind has been confronted and challenged by Cyril far away, this leaves all beings that were under it's control free, as well as the curse of the mind touch it had with Zachary broken. Zachary now has undiluted contact again with his Deity.

However...The x-paladin's case is not so simply cured. He has other problems that will be brought to light soon enough. Enjoy the show, everyone!

Zachary: It appears that the ex-paladin is in a position to be discovered by you as you see fit. You will have to do a bit of walking to find him, but it appears that you have the initiative to spot him first. As always...this is only one possible result of many that could happen. ;)

Translations:

The first part is the Poetic Edda...

The translation for the Gaelic spell is below:

Hurrah and Woe! Leftward! O you my beautiful one! Scared will be the sustenance after cloud and flowers, through its powerful skills of wizards. My battle will not dwindle until (its) end. Not cowardly my request with (their) encountering me with a lnd of rushes laid waste by fire death's form established, death on us given birth.

Before (the presence of) the Sidhe with each of them,
Before Ogma I satisfy,
before the sky and the earth and the sea,
before the sun and the moon and the stars.
O Band of warriors my band here to me
My hosts here of great hosts sea-full
(of)mighty sea-spray (boiling) smelted golden powerful,
conceived, my it be sought upon the field of battle,
Joint death its strain. Havoc its strain.


This spell will call the ancient elder dragon Arcades....my old friend, and someone without whom I cannot cleanse the ley lines...

Ok...I'm impressed. Let's see now this newcomer in action! The one who is known as the "ancient"? Looks like I may have to educate yon yearlings on the term "ancient" in the forums of Ironworks. :D
