... in The Village...

"... thank you for the informotion, Goodeho, it was mostly useful. Now we are ready with some defence mechamisms. Is there someting we can do for you?" said the hobbit in one of his brakes between making defencive fortifications. It was three days since the come of the ghost.

  "There's only one thing I need, shelter. From the Freeliches"

  "Well... we're not the best shelter, especially against the undead, but we'll try to save you from them"

  "I'm thankful to you for that."
Meanwhile...
   in the Hobgoblin's camp
"We are all ready chief!"

"Good... let's get on with it... let's kill the halflings scum"

[on "Undine"'s deck]

...Breg runs to Cirion...

- we have company, people... three more ships to sink... grrr...

- three more? things are getting awfully rough... looks like the ECF is taking ship theft a bit too serious...

- these don't look like ECF ships to me lad...

- they don't seem too friendly either...

- I guess we'll have to find out... now stop talking ad get ready...

- err... we are ready...

..."Undine" gets closer to the ECF ship, Lith gets his katanas out, Breg prepares his war claw, Cirion gets his lance, Knightmare rides lachradir, yielding his warhammer and Vaho finds something for her slingshot ...the battle is about to start...

...on the Sapphire...

"Hoist sails! Run to the wind!" Cried the Captain of the ECFS Sapphire, "Well mage? Where is that wind? I don't like the looks of that crew."

"I-I-I c-could use the wind to move us or t-t-to help the pi-pi-pirates, Which i-is it?"

"Better help us now, and help the pirates later.  It looks like those warriors want to grapple us."  

"Captain, do you want me to discourage them?" asked a shadow agent, "They might just slow alittle with their sails afire."  The shadow agant takes out one of his tar arrows and sets it aflame.  He draws, and fires into the mainsail of the 'Undine'.  The sail starts to smolder and some of the rigging starts to catch fire.  Immediately some sailor start to climb the rigging.

"Good Shot!  Know know I was worried when you were assigned here, it's a good thing I listened to the Druid."

The shadow agent replied, "Listening to the Druid is a good way to keep breathing."

...on the Blackheart...

"Pull you motherless dogs, Pull!" Captain Alocacoc yelled to his oarsmen.  "The fight has started and we're not yet in range.  If the ECF sloop gets claim on my booty their will be hell to pay!"

The 'Blackheart' and her sister ships began closing on the 'Undine' when the fire arrow struck.  The 'Dagger' was closer and Captain Alocacoc could see Captain Razer ready his boarding crew with grapples and ropes.  Razer might get there first but the 'Blackheart' will arrive in plenty of time to get a good booty split.

...in the forest...

*A sound of a wagon pulled by horses was getting louder and louder. The demon shifts his body into an old human with shredded clothes, getting ready for his first prey*

*A wagon escorted by two guards approaches. The front guard spots the old man with shredded clothes and decides to stop*

Front guard: "Move out from the road! We are in a hurry."

Daemoniumm: "Please. Do not go that way. Evilness had taken this forest. My family got killed by elves. The elves got crazy...or maybe cursed! Please, take me with you! I do not want to die."  

*The rear guard approaches the front guard. The front guard turns his horse to face the rear guard*

Rear Guard: "What's going on? Why did we stop? The king is waiting for the shipment."

*Daemoniumm vanishes*

Front guard: "This man here wants to go with us..." *points where old man was.*

Rear guard: *chuckles* " I don't see anyone here. Are you ok?"

Front guard: "We have to turn back, this place is cursed. The old man said that..."

Rear guard: "There is no such old man here. See for yourself!....Let's go."

*The demon appears behind the rear guard looking as an elf with an evil face, ripping his chest and laughing evilly. The front guard turns his horse and ride it  to escape from the demon.*

Daemoniumm:" He will make sure that the rumor of elves is spreaded between humans. Soon, a war will be take place between them!"

...the three finally stepped in out from the vortex that they have created back in OT's tower...

in front of them lays the Great Ivory Tower, it's magnificience and beauty the world had never seen before. Centuries and centuries ago the elves and the dwarfs worked together to create this magnificient building where teh talented can be trained into a master of the arcane arts, but then again sense of time are totally lost here. But now only the most powerful of the most powerful resides  this place, hogging all the tomes and artifacts and claiming it theirs given any oppotunity. From a long distance the Ivory tower seemed to be made from one giant rock, but close observation reveals that the great spires and stairs that leads to millions of other parts of the tower are magically enchanted making the rocks look smooth and unmarked by the turn of age.

as the three walked to the gate, an enchanted piece of metal that only opens and close by the command of the Keeper, halted their step.
"Of whom seeks the entry to the place of great knowledge" asked the Keeper in a formal way

and OT answered back in a similar fashion

after the formalities the three were admitted and the view beyond the Gate had made Wiz's eyes even wider....if that was possible...

By a small fire in the woods a man and a minotaur are sharing their small breakfast. The man is a s large as the minotaur, and he has the look of a dangerous creature.

" So, Dargoth, you say you found orc tracks yesterday in these parts? We should see exactly to whom they belong. After eating, we will go scouting."

"As you wish, my king. Although i have to remind you that we must not divert to much from our way. Those reports about ship thievs and guards making up taxes are serius enough. And you do not afford to let the confidence of your people in you decline...."

"What? Now i am getting poilitical advices from a minotaur? Stick to fighting, Dargoth, it's best not to meddle in something you know nothing about. Finish eating, today we g orc-slaying."

...at the Ivory Tower...

The old man walked boldly into the Ivory Tower, Wizardboy didn’t know what to expect but this caravel of color and people was not even close.  There were thousands of people in all manner of dresses wandering through a bazaar filled with booths of every imagining.  There were weapon smiths and artifact merchants, food stalls and menageries, it look as if anything that you could ever want was for sell in this place.

“Master, uh, is this place larger on the inside than on the out?” asked Wizardboy.

“Maybe, I have never given it much thought, although the tower might just seem smaller because you haven’t got any perspective to gage it’s height.” The old man stopped and bought a foul smelling piece of meat on a stick. “Ummm…mmm.. I haven’t had Basilisk-kabobs for a long time.”

Wizardboy continued to look around and noticed that he could actually see everyone’s magical aura.  Some had magic seemingly coursing through them while other seemed to have little magic at all.  While observing Wiz noticed that people who had less of an aura gave way to people who had greater power, it seemed like a high archery of sorts.  He turned to share his observation with his master when he discovered that the old man had no magical aura at all, and this fact wasn’t lost of those around them.

“Well Old man, how did you make it through the barrier?  No one has been able to come or go in for sometime now.  It would be interesting to know how you managed it.” Said Jerome who had just come up to them.

“Hello Jerome, I just made an insubstantial bridge to link the void between worlds.  If you paid more attention to me than your own projects you could have learned something.  Is there a Gorgon milkshake stall around I’m parched.”

Turning to Wizardboy, “You’re his apprentice now, doesn’t he frustrate the hell out of you to?” Wizardboy just shrugged and went over to where the boy was playing with some artifacts.

“You know it’s these planes walkers of yours that are causing all the problems.  You should never have given the elementals so much autonomy.” Said the old man.

“Well you and your generation gave a lot of autonomy to elves and dwarves and all the other things that you made, what is so different with the elementals?”

“What is so different? They are made only of magic! And by forming these things you have given magic intelligence, how did you think that you could contain intelligent magic with your own magic?  This discussion is best left for a council meeting when we can decide what to do.”

“What do you mean what to do?  Now that you opened a bridge I imagine that people will want to go home and tend their business.” Said Jerome.

“No one is leaving until I talk to the council.  The plains walkers are starting a war across the dimensions and my retreat world seems to be on the front lines.  I’ll see you in the chamber my boy, good to talk with you.”  With that dismissal Jerome left and Wizardboy came back up to his master.

“I thought we were at war with Jerome.”

“We are, but we can’t let petty philosophical squabbles intrude upon the Ivory Tower, it’s just not proper.”

“Oh, a transdimentional war is just a petty philosophical squabble, that’s news to me.”

“Remember just because we have to be polite to everyone doesn’t mean to trust them.  Wizards have been known to have ‘accidents’ and be seriously injured or killed by their friends and acquaintances. So keep your guard up and don’t give out details about you or our troubles.”

Wizardboy thought on this as he walked through this incredible bazaar.

Andrew was tied up and placed in the deck of 'Blackheart'.
"The fight will start soon. Now is my chance."
Andrew pulled out a fork he has kept hidden for so long. Then he started cutting the rope around his wrists. It took quite some time but his hands were finnaly free. A pirate came in. Andrew quickly hid the rope and his hands behind himself.
"Muahahaha...your gonna get some friends soon matey! Muahahahahaha!" the ugly pirate guard laughed.
"Stop your whinning bastard!" Andrew yelled 'cause he wanted the pirate to come close to him.
"What you say?!" he started closing on the half-elf.
"You all are going to die sea pigs!" Andrew taunted him.
"That's IT!" he started running towards Andrew and at the same time pulling out his scimitar. Andrew quickly grabbed the pirate's legs and pulled him down. Then Andrew grabbed the scimitar, cut the ropes on his legs, jumped on his feet and sliced the pirate's throat.
"I am finnaly free...now it's time to pay a visit to my dear friend Captain Alocacoc." the ranger started running towards the captains room. The ship was empty. All the pirates were busy attacking their prey. Andrew ran into the captain's room but it was empty. He saw a treasure chest.
"Hmmm...I wonder what's inside" Andrew opened the chest
"Yes! My equipment!" Andrew put on his dragon leather armor and shoes. He took his yew longbow and his two short mithril swords with their sheat. Finnaly he put on his bag of arrows.
"It's time to rock baby..." Andrew smiled for the first time in long time.

Then Alocacoc entered.
"What? How did your 'scape arsehol?!" he shouted and grabbed his scimitar. Andrew quickly leaped at him and cut his arm which was holding the weapon.
"YOU!Boys help moy!" he was still shouting but you could hear fear in his voice. No one heard him. They were busy fighting. He kneeled on his knees.
"I beg mercy of your matey" he started begging with tears in his eyes.
"Hmmmm...Let me think...you killed and raped hundreds of women. You killed hundreds of children. You killed my friend. And you killed everything that wasn't useful for you.Hmmmmmm...I guess my answer is.......NO!" Andrew sliced the captains head off with his last word.
"I guess I'll go help that ship they're attacking." Andrew went out and saw the battle. He sheated his swords and pulled out his longbow. He took an arrow, strained the string and let it go sending the arrow into a pirate's heart. He started shooting arrows one after another. He shot about twelve pirates and put his bow on his back, unsheating his swords again. Just at that time a pirate ran up to him and the half-elf ranger stabbed him in the gut and sliced his head off with his other sword. Then Andrew grabbed a rope and leaped onto the defending ship. There he started slicing through the pirates.

The man and the minotaur were following orc tracks they had found the previous day. They finaly reached a small clearing in the woods and stopped.

"Dargoth! wispered Conn. Look! Sentries. We have reached the camp."

"Then let's go and destroy them!" the minotaur said, having a hard time keeping his voive down.

"No. Let's see what they are about. See the sentry? He walks about a hundred paces back and forth. I will work my way close to him and go in when he is near his turn. You go in after me."

["Undine"'s deck again]

...the former ECF ship is filled with pirates, thanx to Romana's powers, the Five seem to move twice as fast as the pirates...dissembodied heads fly to all directions thanx to Cirion's lance and Breg Carag is practising on making "pirate-kebabs" with his war claw... some of the ECF agents, now aboard, just got a third eye, courtesy of Vaho's slingshot... Knightmare rides Lachradir and tries to find the fallen Gea... meanwhile, the fire is burning wild... Lith tries to control the flames but since the sun is still up, it just helps the fire get bigger and more dangerous... one of the pirates tries to get the little box next to Cirion but he soon finds himself two hands short... Lith is ready to jump on the pirate ship, when he sees a young human opening his way through the pirates, he uses a scimitar to slay them but doesn't seem one of them... not many pirates wear dragonscale armor...

- "Undine" is going to sink soon... everybody out... Romana, Vaho, Breg... grab Cirion and lets get out of here...

...as the ebon blade katana cuts the head off a pirate's body, "Undine"'s sail hits the Elven warrior on the head... before anyone can react Lith falls into the sea...

- noooo! ...brother!

...on the high seas...

Chaos reigns aboard the pirate ship "Blackheart" as a freed captive makes short work of the captain and the helmsmen.  Rudderless the great ship crashes into the "Undine" as the burning mass of sails collapses onto the "Blackheart's" decks.  The pirate crew looks at each other knowingly and abandon the ship, jumping into the sea and swimming towards the trailing pirate vessal.  Captain Razer aboard the "Dagger" shakes his head in disbelief, "That Alocacoc hired one cowardly crew." he said to his first mate.  

The mate replied, "Sir, I believe we should turn about."

"Why, the fighting is about over and our archers can surely clean up the rest of this fight."

"Turn about!" Yelled the first mate. "Everyone man the oars!"  The confused pirates returned to the oar benches of the war galley.  They all began to row, cursing the mate under their breath.

The captain stares in disbelief as the first mate takes charge.  "Why shouldn't I keelhaul you right here?"

Sorry Sir, but I had no time to explain, you see I was drinking with Alocacoc's mate and he said the they were hauling...."

<<<CRACCK^^^^^BOOOOM^^^^BOOOM^^^^CRACKK>>>

"...Naphtha."  The Blackheart explodes in a tremendous explosion sending bodies and debris in every direction.  The sea is awash in fire as the fire oil spreads out from the ship.  Survivors in the sea scream as the unquenchable fire engulfs their bodies.  Everywhere there is movement in the sea as sailors and pirates swim to avoid their coming doom.

"Alocacoc was an idiot," Razer says, "Good job with the ship, next time you find out something like this you had better tell me or I will gut you on the spot."  The first mate gracefully accepts his faint praise and orders the longboats ready for salvage and rescue operations.  The other pirate ship and the ECF vessal both slowly come to the scene to help out but Razer knows that he will get the first pick of the booty from both burning vessals.

Meanwhile the pirates see a knight riding a flying horse circling a small group of survivors securing one of the "Undines's" longboats. Razer notes that these are dangerous people and hopes that they can't make landfall before they die from exposure.

Andrew cuts another pirate's head and then an explosion sends him flying in to the sea. He grabs a ship debri just in time 'cause it would be quite hard to swim with his equipment.
"Help me, please!" Andrew shouts to the Undine's crew.

"Look to your right!....A little lower...quick use the hook." The first mate calls his instructions to the pirates in the boat.  "Captain it looks like we recovered a strongbox and some other pieces of luggage."

"Good, but we're gonna hafta fing some serious gold for anyone on break even on this voyage.  That ECF agent that just aboard is claiming it was our incompetence that cost them a ship and cargo.  And by the Cat's tits they have a contract that claims we have to cover battle damage.  Alocacoc was a fool and I a bigger one for following him and ever signing a piece of paper.  They can confiscate our holdings on Skull Island if we don't make good."

"Captain, bring a mage, this box stinks of magic and I don't want to open it."  The mage came over and opened the box and looked upon a magical artifact of immense power.  The first mate smiled, and the Captain Razer knew that their financial problems were over.

In the City of Magic....

...Wiz notice that the oldman and the boy had both disappeared form sight...thinking that they might have left and went straight to the tower without him he decided to head towards that direction as well hoping to find them at the entrance waiting for him...

as Wiz heads towards the entrance to the Ivory tower he notice a great crowd was gathering around the Great Door which only admits wizards and the likes. With all the excitement gathering around the door he walk stright towards that direction...since he was going there anyway...

what he saw was a a couple of Dwarfs quarreling with DoorKeeper whether they are allow to enter or not...

"I told u many times oldman, i need to see your leader, and i need to see him now" said the dwarf who seem to be in charge and hoping that's that.

"As i have told your for the past hour only mages or anyone who deals with the arcane arts are allowed to enter, and Judging you from my expeience of Dwarfs, u are just as old as i am, or even older, so shall i call u ancient-man instead?" the doorkeeper argued back

with that the dwarf's face got even redder. and he is furious mad now and waving his battle axes above his head and saying all the colorful words he know in his language...

another dwarf stepped in, he seem to be calm and has more self control then their leader and is not much older then him either.

"Perhaps my chief haven't mentioned yet, but we were sent by the great mountain king himself, may his beards grew ever longer. We are here in dire needs to seek the help of your great Archmage, may his wisdom grow ever the wiser." said the old dwarf.

the doorkeeper thought for a second then call one of the younger guards and muttered something to his ears and he went up the stairs.

"i m sending someone in charge" explained the Doorkeeper

Wiz watch in fascination as of why the dwarfs are seeking the wizards help........

...in the Great Cathedral...

“For valor and honor in defending the faith and protecting the faithful; for courage in battle and with dealing with extreme hardship; for inspirational leadership of the forces of liberation for the towns of Southhollow, Fairfax, Horse Valley, Miller’s Green, and Cauthon’s Corner from the barbaric hordes, undead legions, and the demonic forces of the netherworld; It is my great pleasure as Father Primus of the faith, to bestow upon our good servant Jack, Lord of Fairfax, called the Sword of the Righteous the title of Champion of the Faith.”

With that the high cardinal dubbed Jack with his scepter of office and bid him to rise.

“I humbly accept your gracious words and will strive to prove myself worthy of the honor.” Replied Jack as he bowed again and retreated off the dais.  He hid his smile as he walked out of the audience chamber confidant that his plans to expand the front lines and rescue the captive human towns could begin anew.  His new rank should help expedite his army expansion plans; he needed more archers, knights and ballista to push the crusade further.  He grabbed his wrist where the sword and fleshed merged trying to block out the pain.  He would settle the score and drive these accursed magical creatures from the land.

…at the Ivory Tower…

The old man went into a shop that looked old and humble compared to the assault of colors in the stalls around it.  He saw the shopkeeper and asked, “Have you found me any ancient artifacts?  It’s been awhile since my last visit but you said that you had expeditions looking for the oldest and rarest of ancient artifacts.”

The shopkeeper looked askew at the old man in his shop.  “I have never seen you before, and you never placed an order with me.”

The old one looked at the merchant quizzically, “Maybe it was your father, or grandfather, I can’t remember.  Just look for anything that was saved for the owner.”

“Owner? I’m the owner and have been since my father passed.”

“Look into your papers and you will find that your father just leased the space from me on condition that he save me any ancient artifacts that he found for me to inspect, besides how could you own my residence?”  With that the old man went up to a bookshelf that covered the wall and opened a hidden door that had not been opened in years.  The merchant stared in disbelief as he saw the hallway light up and open into a great room with a fire ready to light in the great hearth.  “Don’t tell anyone that I live here.  I like my secrets and that is another condition of the lease.”  The old man came back with the document and the merchant recognized the signature chop of his great grandfather.

“Umm..It’s always been a tradition to save old and unidentified artifacts in the study, you can look them over if you want.  They are in the back beyond the door to my rooms.”

“I know where the study is boy.  I designed this place didn’t I? Can’t you remember anything?”

“Sir, I just met you so I can’t remember things that didn’t happen to me.”

“Sorry, you look a lot like you dad.”

“You mean my great grandfather don’t you?”

“It’s been that long?  I hate time displacement, its seems like only a few years to me.  Let me see the calendar…hmmm…62 years.  Seems just like yesterday.”

Sailing long and fast

The group starts to pick up the track of Lith Maethor and his ship(Not yet knowing about the pirates)... after weeks of fast sailing they see a small dot on the horizon...

"Check this out" Biurt says to Sir Dunco handing him the binocluras
Sir Dunco takes them and looks. And the more he looks the more he sees two shapes and even more one of them looks familiar...The two shapes seem to be holding on to a log...
He puts the binoculars down and then turns to Vilenith...
"Cant this thing go any faster?" He asks
"Yes, but we would need strong wind?" Vilenith replies
"Argh!!! It thought u knew magic!?"
"Ummm but well it's a complex spell but i'll give it a try..." Vilenith says

So Vilenith cast gust and the ship goes faster for a few kilometers then the magic worns off....
Sir Dunco picks up the binoculars and looks

Then with his face full of amazement he says" Well I shall be dammed if that is not Lith Maethor! Faster we must save him!"

And infact it was lith fell in the sea allong with the pirate and before anyone could help them they were carried away by wawes....
The ship gets closser and Sir Dunco and Vilenthi take a small boat down to collect Lith and the pirate...they both seem to be asleep or unconcius as the two take them aboard the ship...

anyway since this is the only excitement he cound for the past half hour he decided to knock the door down. he had doubts because this is no ordinary door...well it was ordinary, but it was an ordinary door in an extraordinary place...but he decide to try his luck anyway. He unsheathed his treetrunk..er.. imean his sword...and cut a clean straight line in the middle...he kicked the splinters away...and before his eyes...before him is something that no ones eyes can believe,....anyeay...what i m trying to say is..:he couldn't believe what he saw before his eyes.

[in the open sea]

...Cirion feels himself going deeper and deeper into the water, as he sees his end is near, only one thought comes to mind...

"I failed... I failed to save Lith and I failed to keep the artifact safe... I am a disgrace to my people"

...only a splitsecond before death claims him, the Dwarven captain feels his lungs filled with much needed air, when he opens his eyes, he only sees water... before realising it, his body is pushed back to the surface, when he can see the sky again, he searches for the "Undine" and his companions, the only thing in sight, is a small barren island... meanwhile, Knightmare and the others try to reach Sir Dunco's boat, without noticing their precious cargo is now in the hands of a pirate...

Walking inside, the only attention he draws is a slight nod from the barkeeper. Slowly adjusting his eyes to the artificial lights, he slowly makes his way over to the otherwise deserted counter.

"What'll you have?", asks the barkeep.

"Nothing for me thanks, unless you serve something that isn't fermented.", comes the reply.

The large smiling man says, "Well, it seems that there's going to be plenty of rainwater in the morning, but we do serve a fine grape drink from the neighboring vineyards."

Thinking for a moment,"Sure, I'll take a flask. How much will that be?"

"Don't worry about it. It's on me. Strange things have been happening lately. I was just hoping for some talk.", returns the fairly rotund man.

"Well, that's thoughtful of you. Well, there isn't much to say. They say that the siege of Amabar may lift any week now, and that Lord Kriem's men are backing off. It isn't that surprising if you ask me", offers the stranger.

"Hmm, oh that doesn't bother me in the least. All of them fancy quarrels those good for nothings like to ecite, wasting their resources. Time could be spent to help mend the devastation...if that's possible."

"Well, there's nothing stopping things from just getting worse. THey probably figure that there's nothing to gain from that. It's steal from someone else what you don't want to make yourself, it seems. That's why I tend to steer clear of big cities. You don't know what will happen next."

Emitting a short laugh, "Aye, stranger. You speak the truth. I have always been an outdoorsman myself. Just took up residence here after I shatterred my leg, trying to escape a pack of hounds some years ago. We get a couple travelers here now and then, but we are far from most of the action."

"...yes, but perhaps close than you think. Surely you must have noticed something strange about the flying patterns of the local geese. Something about the forest just doesn't bode well."

"Yes, I know what you mean. A few days ago, a wolf wandered it's way past the night watchmen. Usually nothing more than birds find their way to even this small town. There is a disturbance outside."

Getting up to his feet the stranger says, "Well, I should be going now. I have to go see to my supplies so I can get moving again soon. Thank you for your time."

"...anytime. Drop in again whenever you want." Waving his hand in a circular motion, "There's always room. There's rarely more than a couple tables filled here", said the retired adventurer as he watched the young man leave back out into the rain.
