The mercenary had finally reached the destination on the map. His encounter with those magical beings had wasted to much of his time and he even failed capturing even one of them. Now the trio was surely long gone. He just had to hope that this new job would be a big payer, he was running low on money.

The place marked on the map was a small hut. He wondered this could be the right place and after carefully making sure that there was no kind of ambush nearby, he entered.

As Nathrez entered the Hut, he was greeted the exact same way as those before him ((though of course nobody knows that everybody has been greeted exactly the same)).  Including the offer of a lot of gold should the 'Statue' be destroyed.

Meanwhile Profeus started the long trip toward the pass.  In his excitement he was not really paying attention to the world around him, so he was very suprised to find himself near what looked like a rather large war.  Very close, maybe even too close.  It should have taken over a week to reach the pass, but here it was...maybe a sign from the one true god?

Meanwhile Fiya spots something and draws Winterfates attention to it.  It is a stone tower, overlooking the battlefield but out of the path of it.  He could reach it, if he was careful.

Winterfate looks at Fiya, then at Shady, and says:

"Well to the tower then. Maybe it will reveal part of this mystery..."

And so, Winterfate heads towards the tower, making sure not to alert the combatants of his presence. He didn't know which side was the one he should be fighting for yet.

Winterfate has to go around to the other side of the pass, and he too gets dangerously close to the battle.  There he spies an unusual looking Gnome.  ((Profeus and Winterfate have just met, the two of them have to decide what if anything they do now )).

Winterfate notices the unusual gnome and starts thinking:

"What a strange little character. He certainly doesn't seem to be a part of this battle. Then again, I should go see what Fiya's so interested in."

Winterfate keeps moving towards the tower, making a mental note to try and find the gnome afterwards.

((Only way I could really stay in character. Trying to find out about the gnome at this moment would be a bit silly. But if Geny wants to chase me... ))

As the faerie begins casting the spell, Malreth began to smile. He had never been to the Arena, or to the location he was headed, but he pictured a place as far south as he had been to in the past.

The teleport spell takes effect.  With a normal spell, there is always a danger when you can not clearly picture a place in your mind.  You can end up in walls, the ground, or miles above the ground.  With the fairy guiding the spell, however, all these risks are eliminated and the group lands safely less then a mile from the pass.  Even that distant, they can hear the battle going on there.

Now it becomes evident why these two make a dangerous pair.  The fairy cloaks the group in a Improved Invisibility spell, with true seeing.  An invisible giant that does not go uninvisible when it attacks would be a very dangerous creature.

"Humans..fighting again.  Are you sure you wish to go to the pass?  It sounds like where this battle is." cautions the Fae.

"Indeed, I am. These humans are hardly of any concern to me. I came for something else. Something worse. Come, let's take a quick look at what they are battling for, at least."

Malreth climbs onto the shoulder of the giant, alongside the fearie, to get a better look as they walk towards the battle.

The group passes a dog a bird (and thanks to their true seeing) a humanoid figure with them, then a little Gnome.  Sure enough there is one 'man' fighting an army..and winning.  Golems, warriors, elementals, and various seige machines seem to be no danger to the stone man.  As you get closer you can here his little Mantra.  "I am Vain, speak my full name and I shall obey!"

The fae speaks.  "Interesting.  A ranger out this far, and with two companions nonetheless.  If this thing is what you are after...you may want to think twice.  This is not something that harms, but purifies.  It is ancient magic, magic even greater then that of my kind, but it does not destroy anything that does not mean it harm."

It is well known that Fae are ancient, and in matters of lore they are typically correct.  This 'Vain' does not look very peaceful however.

"Purify? Well, I'm certainly glad I ran into you, before running into it. That thing is what I was sent here to destroy. What I was told was going to cause destruction, should it reach the Arena. I would think it best we assist it, rather than halt it, wouldn't you? Those rangers are usually ones who want to help purify the world as well. He may be able to further assist us."

I put on my coat and ran down to the workshop, the boss had been making a gattling cannon to be sent out to a client of ours, yet somehow he had managed to trigger the firing mechanism and made the cannon start to rotate.

As Profeus contemplates what the heck is going on, two figures emerge from the bushes.  They are dressed from the neck down in black.  He hears "The battle is over this way, we shall observe first before commit.." the person breaks off mid sentence.  "We are not alone."

At first his eyes go to Winterfate as he enters the Tower, but since Winter is going the other way and not toward them he dismisses that.  Then he leans his head back as if seeing something, but also dismisses that.  Finally he looks at Profeus.  "Much appologies, we did not mean to intrude on you." He bows.

The other looks confused but gives a hasty bow to Profeus also.  "Sensai, we should check out this battle.."

"Greater things are happening here then that battle.  I have not felt this much caseka in a long time." Replies the man.

------------------------------------------------------------

Winterfate (part 1) - You enter the tower and find stairs up but the inside is MUCH smaller then the outside and they only go up maybe 10 foot to a door, nothing supporting them (or the room they seem to lead to), and no other doors or anything.  You overhear a strange conversation.  "You must hold him at all cost, we have breached the ruins defenses.  Soon we will have that things full name, and we shall have full control over the most powerful weapon ever.  Only one last defense which only a natural flying animal can breach, and it will be ours.  My minions will have one too me shortly, and this .. thing will serve US!"

"You have an intruder, he has heard everything you fool!  Deal with him!"

------------------------------------------------------------
Malreth - As you head to catch up with the Ranger, you pass the gnome (with two new people) again.  One of the people seem to see the giant.  Which is strange.  You overhear the conversation, and reach the tower just in time for the fairy to warn you - "Somebody is casting a major spell!"

--------------------------------------------------------------
Winterfate (2) - Only a small amount of time has passed during all this, but it had been quiet the whole time..until suddenly you hear the end of a spell being cast..

Nathrez followed the direction he had been given by the clients. It seemed they wanted to get some kind of monster dead. A risky job, but the pay was nice indeed.

There was something troubling his mind however. The closer he would get to his target, some kind of heat seemed to be emitting from the weapon.

"Stop thinking about that now. I have a job to do!" he thought for himself.

((Well, gonna do that one update. Feel free to keep adding after this.))

Winterfate opens the door just in time to hear:

"Maximized Delayed Blast Fireball!"

He has no time to even see the assailant as the red bead typical of the spell lands right next to him, exploding instantly. He takes the brunt of the attack, thus shielding his animal companions from most of the attack.

The wizard pulls the trio into the room and questions, snidely:

"Who sent you?"

He waves off his own question as he then stares at the severely wounded Ranger.

"There are so many ways I can kill you now. Nothing will stand in my way to control Vain!"

He then starts preparing another spell...

((Now what people? ))

Malreth stares at the tower for a half second, then looks to the tower entrance.

"A massive spell? It might be interesting to see who, and what. Not sure how wise it would be, though. Either way, I think I may want to take a small look. I stress the word small. This guy here, he is a bit too big. Though, you. Care to join me?"

Malreth climbs down, and heads into the tower.

The Fae nods.  "Don't worry about the big guy though.  That is why we make such a great team." She casts Shrink, which reduces the giant man down to human size.  "Oh and it was just a fireball, though it seemed to be powerful, it wasn't as major as I first thought.  I think there is another spell active in there, which made the other spell seem more potent."

The big guy asks.  "Wantink me to go in first?"

"I am not sure." Cautions the fae.  "With a reduction in size your hide is not quite as ... thick.  Lets let our new friend decide."

Several things happen at once as the trio step into the Tower.  Inside the mage is prepairing some nasty spell to rid himself of the pesky Ranger and the pesky Ranger's companions.  Winterfate is too injured to really do much, though the companions avoided most of the blast.
The orb lights up and an excited voice shouts "Master, no need for the flying creature!  We sacrificed a dozen slaves to the last trap and got past it!  We have found the name.  Necorima !  It's name is Necorima!"

As he nears the end of his spell he smirks.  He will soon control that .. thing and eliminate this pesk.  Just as the Trio force the door open Fiya shimmers and transforms.  In the place of the magnificent bird is a decidedly nude female.  The mage sputters and ruins his spell..it will take a moment for him to cast another..and the trio ((and Shady)) have the initiative.

Profeus, who arrived at his destination quicker than expected and thought it to be divine guidance by The One True God, was overlooking the battle. And that was a sight to look at: one lonely figure crushing a whole army without even breaking a sweat... mostly because statues don't perspire. The gnome knew it would not be easy taking this monster down, but he believed that The One True God will aid him in his quest and the stronger that foul creature is, the more fame it will bring Profeus and his God when its defeated.

As Profeus was observing the battlefield, he felt something warming up on his chest. He looked down and saw that his star pendant is glowing faintly. Curious, Profeus took the pendant in his hand and lifted it closer to his eyes. In an instant he already knew how to use the holy artifact to fight the monster. Indeed, The One True God was on his side this day. He would guide his prophet using the amulet he sent him as a sign of their unbreakable pact of loyalty.

Profeus was already about to move out, but just then he heard voices and saw a man and a women standing behind him. The man , who seemed older, greeted Profeus and apologized for their interruption. Wary and annoyed by this sudden intrusion, Profeus replied:

"Yeah, yeah, whatever...", He glanced at the battlefield and turned back to the two strangers, "I bet you two dress-wearing weirdos are here because of the battle as well. So? What side are you on and what are you going to do?"

The man wanted to answer, but his apprentice was quicker:

"And what is it to you what our actions will be, little man? They are own, and we need not answer about them to anyone."

"Look here, blackie, I couldn't give rotten egg about you or your stupid intentions. For all I care you two can sit here and paint each other's toenails. Just know that I am going down there to destroy the statue in the name of The One True God and you two better not get in my way."

"Destroy it? Are you insane? Don't you know that it..."

"That's enough, Mitsu." The man, finally decided to join the conversation. "Every man has his own path to follow and it is not for us to decide which one they will take. Go on, stranger, do what you must and do not be alarmed, we have no interest in this battle for now."

Profeus murmured something unpronounceable, turned around and headed towards the battle. He looked back a couple of times, but the weird duo did not seem to follow him. Then he finally forgot about them and grabbed the pendant on his neck. It was getting hotter and brighter as Profeus moved closer to the carnage ahead. Soon, very soon, it will be his time to shine as well.

Nathrez had finally found the "thing". There was only one way to describe it.

Gigantic!

As Nathrez watched, the monster fought a lesser horde of enemies with ease. He lay in hide and wondered how he ever would be able to fight that thing even with his skills. Going straight in was equal to suicide. He would have to find a way weaken it first.

Suddeny strange noises disturbs his thinking. Not to far away there is a tower where the sound seem to come from.

No! Stay focused he tells himself and once again sets his eyes on the giant thing, thinking out a way to take it down.
