Forboding HADB Castle No.2

Originally posted by H. Sedai: “…came upon our village last night. We could do very little to stop them. I tried touching the true source but could only destroy some of them. They left no trace. No bodies! Perhaps finding the black diamond shard could save us. Do you know Neb? He is the father of Gwen’s daughter. It was his aura that kept the evil diamond in check. If you could help us, I could provide you with some beano, because you are obviously gassy. At hearing his, Dragonmage smirked and Hiram apologized. A young blonde woman stepped out of a still smoldering hut and stepped up to Dragon Mage and said “We must welcome our visitors, Logan! What are your names?” Dragonmage replied, “I am Breanna and this fumbling lackwit is my traveling companion, nothing more. Oh, his name is Hiram or something. We could use a place to rest for the night. Hiram, quit staring at Gwen’s rack and fetch my satchel. I have some research to do. Gwen escorted the pair to a small and poorly lit hut. There are blankets on the ground and a jug of water. “We don’t have much but you are welcome here.” Gwen stepped to the doorway and said “May the Wolf of Azure Hue bless you. Pleasant Evening.” Upon seeing the sad surroundings, Dragonmage summoned a…

...few items: broom, rag and bucket of water. She made quick work of giving the hut a 'once over'. With that done, she then conjured more comfortable sleeping accoutrements and heated the water with a gesture.~ "Hiram, would you please fetch us a cooking pot and get something started whilst I look through my books for some idea of what this black diamond shard is and what it does? That's a nice dwarfie there!"

~With that settled, DragonMage spoke a word to light the lamp and settled down to read....After a couple of hours and some horrible stew, DragonMage gave up.~ "I find nothing in any of my books! We must go find someone who knows of this! We should find Neb and ask him all he knows of it AND where to find it!"

~After a restful night's sleep. Hiram and Breanna set out to find Neb. Breanna thanks Gwen and presents her with a gift - a lovely figurine of a dragon, plus some coin for her hospitality.~ "Well, let's away, then. I hope we run across Neb soon. I really MUST find that magical tome; however, this, I suppose should come first. 'Banish ye evil where ye may, the book will wait for another day.'"

~And with that, Hiram and the Dragon Mage...

OOC: Neb! Where the heck are you man??? Questions await! Take an opportunity to answer our questions or we will have to 'pretend' we found you.

ooc: Damn, you are good, Dragonmage!! You are so smooth and suhweet. I hope I can keep up. Awww sooky sooky now. I feel like reading a paragraph by R.A. Salvatore and then its followed up by a 4th grader. "How I spent my Summer Vacation". Neb would definitely help out here. His prose is quite exciting too. If I handicap the story too much, you can turn me into a newt.

OOC: gee...t'warn't nuttin'. Do you really think so? I was thinking "geez, he's gonna think that's lame". I like what you add and am trying to keep up with YOU. LOL!!! Maybe we are just complimenting each other's writing. That happens sometimes (look at Weis/Hickman). Maybe that will be us some day.

NEB!!! Where ARE you! You don't have long to show up or we're gonna make sumthin' up!

(I'm over at the Temple of Aerie disguised as Aerie! I'm trying to trick Avatar into giving me the shard, by saying I can use it to banish the shadows which is quite true, however, I might "accidentially" not do it until they've overrun the Temple of Aerie, I might also use it's powers for less ethical things.)

[DragonMage]

OOC: Okay - think I've got something to work with here:

IC: ...set off to locate Neb. After several days of gruelling search, they both have become disgruntled and exhausted. Finally, DragonMage decides to try something different...~ "If we can't find Neb, let's bring him to us." ~DragonMage casts a spell that allows Neb's essence to appear without disturbing his actual actions elsewhere. Neb's diaphonous apparition coalesces before there eyes to answer questions that must be asked.~

OOC: NOW, you can answer our questions, dearest.

[Neb]

Neb's essence hovers in the air in front of Dragonmage, it looks mildly annoyed it says, "What have you called me here for? I don't have all day, if it wasn't because my physical body and magical aura was somewhere else you'd be feeling rather crispy at the moment, so hurry up and tell me what you've called me here for."

[Neb]

Originally posted by DragonMage: "Oh, most NEBulous one, we shan't keep you for long. We were in a village a few days ago and were given your name as one who has some clue as to the properties and whereabouts of this mysterious black diamond shard. The village was attacked by shadowy creatures without provocation and they left no trace. Do you have any information which you can impart that will help us help those villagers?"

"I advice you not to search for me," answers Neb's essence, "You might mess up my plans, what needs to be done in order to banish the shadow-things to their own plane is not easy, first you must locate the Black Diamond Shard that is currently possessed by Avatar of the Temple of Aerie, after acquiring the shard, you must then throw it into the Depths of Ul'Garth, a VERY deep and VERY large hole in the ground north of the Temple of Aerie, which has a powerful holy aura, it will be destroyed by this and the shadows's powers will be destroyed with it, without their powers they will not be able to remain in this plane, the biggest problem is that the Depths are guarded by a large army of shadows and that Avatar probably won't believe anyone if they tell him that they need the Shard for the greater good, unless, of course, one was disguised as Aerie, that should be enough information, can I go now? I'm starting to miss my body."
