<DeathStar> Date: 10-643.1.27 - exactly 2 weeks since last time
<DeathStar> Location: Geyze - The Ice Fields of the Spiritalist Kingdom
<DeathStar> *Lumi has sent the spare Peacekeeping team that isn't on the Spirit crisis in search of Bix's team, including Gwen, Sparkling Justice, Chelsea, Cypher, and Lana just because she has ties to the past adventures*
<DeathStar> *Gwen shakes from the cold*
<DeathStar> <Gwen> Who wants to live here?
<Sara> <Chelsea> N-N-Not m-m-m-m-me
<DeathStar> *Cypher has wrapped herself in multiple layers of clothing*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...besides Sp...sp...spiritualists?"
<Seraphna> Talia> Fur real good.
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "Do the Spiritualists want to live here, or do they just... do?"
<DeathStar> *Gwen adjusts his coat as they near a small village*
<Sara> <Chelsea> I-I-I-Is it s-s-s-spiritual to be f-f-f-freezing
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "Don't think so."
<Seraphna> Talia> Maybe if you follow Shiva?
<Jackieness> <Lana> "On....Earth... there are monks...wh...who....live in freezing mountains...to...ac...axchieve enlightenment..."
<DeathStar> <Gwen> Is that what both groups do around here?
<DeathStar> *He goes to breathe into his gloved hands, but the breath almost turns to ice*
<Xanatos> 6* BIX marches forward with happy doots, though in the prototype body he's not able to puff out hot air to help folks with the cold.
<Seraphna> **Talia warms him**
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Magi use magic... to stay warm..."
<Xanatos> <BIX> Lana: Use Same Magic?
<DeathStar> *as they step into the village, they see the villager is a hunting village of sorts, with a shrine in the back. When the villagers see Bix, they fall on their knees, bowing before him*
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "That might be it! They're training their magic!"
<Xanatos> 6* BIX pauses midstep, tilting his head to the side like a dog.
<DeathStar> *chanting in the older Geyzian dialic mixed with Ancient*
<DeathStar> <Gwen> *pauses with one foot up*
<DeathStar> <Gwen> ... Lana...?
<Xanatos> <BIX> Eh? *He looks behind himself to see who they're reacting too*
<Sara> <Chelsea> Eh?
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Well this is new.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ah...?"
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "I didn't know you were a legend!"
<Seraphna> Talia> BIX is their god now.
<DeathStar> *The village chief, after prostating himself before Bix, moves to gather their food and best hunting tools for him, placing it before him*
<DeathStar> <Gwen> Why...?
<Jackieness> <Lana> *scrunches her face, trying to translate their chanting*
<Seraphna> Talia> Leveled up?
<Xanatos> <BIX> W-Wait. 6* He starts to waves his arms and shakes his head, maybe the first stutter he has ever done.
<Seraphna> Talia> We went back and now I’m the Familiar Mommy.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "They believe BIX is the reincarnation of their god..."
<DeathStar> *one little boy takes Bix and leads him along toward the shrine*
<Xanatos> <BIX> BIX = BIX! *he insists as he's led along*
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "I don't think he's a reincarnation of anyone..."
<Jackieness> <Lana> *coughs to clear her throat and then tries speaking back to them with her knowlege of Ancient* "Tell me about your god."
<DeathStar> *as they the shrine, where priestesses are inside, tending to something, they find Bix's body sitting all mighty like on a throne, with drawings on the walls of his mighty deeds throught Geyze, especially Hapian. They motion at the walls*
<DeathStar> <Gwen> Looks like Chronos forgot to make people forget about something
* ChadWinters` has joined #TAW-Session557
<Jackieness> <Lana> *presses her figner to her lips to the others and then resumes trying to communicating*
<Seraphna> Talia> BIX age well!
<Sara> <Chelsea> Huh...
<Xanatos> 6* BIX squeaks and runs over to look at his body, shifting around it without touching it yet to look at the wear and tear on it.
<DeathStar> *it seems the villagers treated it quite well*
<Seraphna> Talia> I think flame paint still there.
<DeathStar> *They speak, wondering what does Bix wish of his loyal servants, using Lana as their mouth piece*
<Jackieness> <Lana> *translating* "The reincarnated god has come to rejoin the remnants of his previous life."
<DeathStar> *they all nod as if that is understandable*
<DeathStar> <Gwen> So is BIx planning to rule here forever?
<DeathStar> *He jokes*
<Xanatos> 6* Bix jerks and looks from Gwen to Lana
<Jackieness> <Lana> "BIX, I tried explaining that you want your old body back. I hope they udnerstand... they do know what you wish of them."
<DeathStar> *as they talk, a woman is presented to Bix - no doubt the village chief's daughter*
<DeathStar> <Cypher> *whispers to Chelsea* I Think he's trying to marry his daughter off to a God
<Seraphna> Talia> BIX offered wife.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh.... this may have just gotten awkward."
<Sara> <Chelsea> But... but why?
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Don't ask me
<Seraphna> Talia> Should ask for fish.
<Alicia> * Sparkling sighs
<Xanatos> 6* Bix considers something for a moment. Though the comment about the wife makes him jerk slightly in panic.
<DeathStar> *The chief rapidly speaks and motions at his daughter, then to Bix*
<DeathStar> <Gwen> Bix, should we grab and run?
<Jackieness> <Lana> "BIX, I might be able to put you back together here, but we need to ritualize this or they might not understand enough to agree."
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "Right, we should make it a proper ceremony!"
<Xanatos> <BIX> BIX. *he taps his chest* Not God. Time Spirit Agent. Spirit Chronos. Choose Bix. Help you. Lose body. Now Found! Thank you.
<Sara> <Chelsea> Time Spirit Agent. TSA for short. *she nods*
<DeathStar> <Gwen. Complete with wife. *As he says that, another member of their party arrives - a certain transforming spirit they picked up who can also go nuclear when angry as one her transformations. Arriving from the back of the cave, she steps forward and picks up the woman being offered with her strength formation, looking bulkier and short haired, she carries her out and drops her*
<Jackieness> <Lana> *takes a breath and then speaks to the chief in Ancient* "He." *indicates BIX* "Must become one with his divine form." *indicates the old body*
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Heh
<DeathStar> *She returns, transforming back into her more sleekier, long haird form, arms crossed*
<Seraphna> Talia> Hello Radi!
<DeathStar> *The chief looks a bit miffed for moment at Radi's treatment of his beloved daughter, but nods, not wanting to anger Bix, and all the villagers step out*
<DeathStar> <Radi> Can you fix Bix now?
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Yes, come on." *walks over to BIX's old body and gives it a look over* "I'm his oracle, afterall."
<DeathStar> -SCNE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Kumen
<DeathStar> *Tora has hooked up her work in the back and part of the other floors. As Chelsea returns from her mission, Bonnie leaps onto her head and Asarar has her visor on*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> How'd your mission go for Lumi?
<Sara> <Chelsea> M-M-My teeth are still ch-chattering, I think I'm permanently frozen...
<DeathStar> *Asarar takes her coat off and puts it over her*
<Sara> <Chelsea> Th-Thanks
<Seraphna> Luci> Any giant frost bears?
<DeathStar> *Cypher sits down, ordering a drink* That was something. *She seems to be using her powers to try to keep warming, nose red*
<Xanatos> <Logan> I'm shocked they didn't send a fire spirit with you all to help keep your warm.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I'm guesing they got all the spirits in one location these days
<DeathStar> *She turns to eye their's on stage*
<DeathStar> *Gaia right now is on stage, singing a solo with the others dancing*
<Sara> <Chelsea> Sadly that would make it easy if someone wanted to attack or kidnap them, in hindsight
<Seraphna> Luci> Pretty much. And with people like Zhenmei concerned they’re keeping a strict watch on wasting Spirit Energy.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Counterpoint would be that it makes it easier to protect them too, much like we have Kumen's here."
<DeathStar> <Asarar> From what I Gather. *She goes to put her hands in her coat out of habit, but instead does her pockets* They're in a barrier
<DeathStar> <Asarar> To stop summoni summoning them
<Seraphna> Luci> Somethin’ about it normally being used to prevent spirits from being disturbed during training.
<Xanatos> <Logan> I wonder if that will be as hard for them to adjust as when we had to stop using the net.
<DeathStar> <Tora> Alright. *She calls* I'm about to run test 45
<Xanatos> <Logan> Then again we could hack connections to the holonet that the PAX people use before they could get relays out here to be consistent.
<DeathStar> *Asarar moves to the back, where Tora is looking a lot like someone who hasn't left the room much in the past 2 weeks. Sen is standing there, looking rather perturbed at Tora's state of long hair and clothing*
<DeathStar> *Cypher finishes her drink*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Barry, refresh my drink. I'm likely going to need it."
<Seraphna> Luci> They other girl had mostly been helping remote I think since Jaime brought her.
<Sara> * Chelsea moves over by Asarar
<DeathStar> *Tora has powered up the machine and is already speed running through the streets of the city in the Net using the portal, but still stationary. It's like she's sending the room itself out into the Net somehow with this device, almost probe like*
<DeathStar> *Tora travels out of the city and begins to head along the fields, keeping an eye on the timer*
<Jackieness> <Kira> *heads into the back with her drink*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> So what are you looking for? <Tora> Well, we know that the Net is being affected by the Spirit Realm dying due to me building this on top of it. I'm using the speed of the Net to try to reach something. Give me a moment
<Seraphna> Luci> It’s like watching a video game.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "But if you run out of time, the aggros cna come out of the screen and kill the player." *sips her drink*
<DeathStar> *it takes her almost 20 minutes, which is a lifetime in how fast the Net doubles one's speed, but soon she does indeed reach the Spirit Realm; the sickly fog in the Net's eyes looks almost...it's already blood red without the timer having gone to the 30 minute mark. The fog looks evil*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Well that's new.
<Xanatos> <Logan> Does the fog have eyes?
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Eyes?
<Jackieness> <Kira> "The corruption must be accelerating. Great." *drinks*
<Seraphna> Luci> Pretty much confirms the corruption is coming from the Spirit Realm eh?
<DeathStar> <Chronos> *leans over everyone, studying the portal*
<Sara> <Chelsea> Unfortunate
<DeathStar> <Chronos> Indeed
<Seraphna> Luci> Kinda seems like if we can find whatever it is doing it in there we might just save both.
<DeathStar> <Tora> That's the problem in this kind of Fog. Unless we knew specifically where to go
<Jackieness> <Kira> "We can barely make it to the edge of the Net before things go red. How do you expect to find the source?"
<DeathStar> <Chronos> Even with my future knowledge, I couldn't tell you that.
<Xanatos> 6* Logan shows Cypher how it almost looks like a face in the fog cloud but really it's just a fog. Like how you see shapes in clouds.
<Seraphna> Luci> The center right? If this stuff is coming out on both sides then it must have an epicenter.
<DeathStar> <Chronos> You'd need someone with almost Godlike knowledge of everything
<DeathStar> <Tora> Heading for the center
<DeathStar> *She speeds along the fog, but oddly it seems the fog has slowed her Net speed down*
<Xanatos> <Logan> I wonder how many of those Id things we could get. Maybe we could use them to map out the world and pinpoint a location before we jump there.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Feels like walking watching someone walk through mud."
<DeathStar> <Tora> Yes. We're going to run out of time before we could even get to the center.
<DeathStar> *as she says that, the timer hits 30 and the blob like creatures begin to form in the Fog*
<Seraphna> Luci> Well we have an idea on how fast it’s slowing and a direction.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "OK, cut it."
<Sara> <Chelsea> Some things never change
<DeathStar> *As Tora cuts it, the blobs are already flying in instantly, knocking her back*
<DeathStar> <Tora> The hell are are they so aggressive?!
<Seraphna> **Luci bats a few back with a shield and forms a barrier**
<DeathStar> *as the portal shuts, at least 5 of them have gotten into the real world*
<DeathStar> *And ... are moving for the other room*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Team, waste them!"
<Xanatos> 6* Logan tchs and pulls up his pistol, firing at them as he chases.
<Seraphna> Luci> Cuz we’re close! **she dive smashes at one with her blade**
<DeathStar> *they're hit, making noises and turns, parts of it splashing on Luci, her skin burning into blackness*
<DeathStar> *Logan's shots knocking parts of them and they fly apart, destroying the back room and pieces of the equipment*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> *grabs her weapon and slashes, destroying one and her weapon*
<Seraphna> **Luci squeaks and backs up, barrier forming on her skin as she burns the stuff off**
<DeathStar> *As the remaining two get out, they go for the spirits*
<DeathStar> *Rushing them*
<DeathStar> <Gale> That's new.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Clear the dancehall!"
<Seraphna> **Kaelan rises in the way, a dark and light blast firing at them**
<DeathStar> *The crowd rush and scream, causing chaos*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Good thing I was spying.
<DeathStar> *Kaelan takes out one as the last one goes ight through the earth barriers and leaps on Gaia*
<Xanatos> 6* Logan shifts to fire for the last one.
<Seraphna> **Kaelan tugs Gaia into a shadow as it leaps, hoping someone else gets it**
<DeathStar> *it splatters, making a wreck of the stage and Gale makes a face, eyeing herself; she doesn't look burned like the others do, but it definitely went on her*
<DeathStar> *Gaia looks woozy, eyeing herself*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> That all of them? *she eyes the hall*
<DeathStar> *Tora eyes the machine sparking, making repairs; Fate has appeared behind the bar, eyeing everything*
<Seraphna> **Kaelan muses pulling her up and eyes the corruption, dark tendrils working to clean it off**
<Jackieness> <Kira> Get the spirits to safety and check them over."
<DeathStar> *there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with her, but her spirit energy seems off*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> It went right through… mmm… your energy is off…
<DeathStar> <Tora> ... Dammit.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> We may need to purify your core Earth spirit.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "New Protocol. WE pull the connection at minute 29."
<DeathStar> <Gale> That may be too hard with the Spirit Realm in the shape it is in
<DeathStar> *she sits down, looking a little out of it*
<Seraphna> Luci> Yeah… definitely can’t bring spirits there yet.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Not till we crush the little worm chewing through the realm no.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "We do not wait for the spawns before closign the portal. Can we make the portal smaller?"
<Xanatos> 6* Logan is looking over the damage they caused.
<DeathStar> *the stage needs repair and the back rooms needs repair*
<DeathStar> <Tora> I can try, but with the shape of those things it might not matter.
<Seraphna> Luci> Shit that stuff burned.
<Xanatos> <Logan> Well...guess it could be worse, but we got stuff to repair, parts to replace, and a spirit injured. So all in all this test was a failure.
<DeathStar> <Tora> I also need to figure out what those things are - they been a pain since day 1 and seem to have a hatred for Spirits. I hear it went after Sylph once as well.
<Seraphna> Luci> Not completely.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "I need solutions, not problems."
<DeathStar> <Fate> *moves around, looking over Luci's hand*
<DeathStar> <Fate> When did all this begin? *She asks*
<Seraphna> Luci> We have a good idea where it is now. And the way the presence thickened that suggests there’s a source.
<Seraphna> Luci> When the realities merged we think.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Like it tried defending itself, right?"
<DeathStar> <Fate> I'm referring to the recent events. I was not aware of it
<Seraphna> Luci> None if this was like this until after our worlds came here and that tree appeared.
<Xanatos> <Logan> Uh. A time being not aware of something happening?
<Seraphna> Luci> Oh well we noticed the drain like… two weeks ago?
<Seraphna> Luci> The elder Geyze spirits claim it’s because they’ve been fighting it in secret.
<DeathStar> *Fate eyes Logan, the 25 year old rocking on the back of her feet and huffing*
<DeathStar> <Fate> I see. *She peers toward the location of Geyze* I've been unaware of recent developments.
<Seraphna> Luci> Mmm.
<DeathStar> <Fate> Perhaps... No. Maybe I've been looking toward other matters too much. Surely. Here. *She hands them a location* Have your group look there.
<DeathStar> *Fate vanishes without much explanation*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "And what clue did she give us?"
<Seraphna> Luci> Anyone else notice she always seems more awkward in adult form?
<DeathStar> *Asarar leans forward, studying the coordinates. They seem to be in the Spirit Realm* Well. With the device busted right now. I'll send it down to Lumi
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Isn't she always that way?
<Xanatos> <Logan> Maybe their Id bot could go there.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> If you want I can take it.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Go ahead.
<Seraphna> Luci> Nah she’s always more together in kid form.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Tora, is there any way to warp the portal to a specific location now that we have one?"
<Seraphna> **Kaelan takes it and goes to shadow port**
<DeathStar> <Tora> Yeah, sure - if we go personally
<DeathStar> <Tora> Do you want to go personally?
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Of course there had to be a gotcha..."
<Seraphna> Luci> I have cheetah spots now.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> *studies Luci's hand, frowning in thought* I'll go
<Sara> <Chelsea> There's always a catch to things like that...
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I'm used to the Net.
<DeathStar> *she grabs one of her older coats with equipment in it*
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Yeah, this is totally not a bad idea.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "And perhaps Fate ages in reverse."
<Seraphna> Luci> You should wear like… a rubber suit.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> And how does that work? Aging in reverse?
<DeathStar> *she tries to picture it*
<Seraphna> Luci> Aging so slow you go backward?
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Her child form is the more expierieced one, while her older self is less experienced, less knowledgeable."
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Well, there's always a catch like you say
<Seraphna> Luci> Maybe the child form is the future one and she deaged like the Taiga kid.
<DeathStar> *Tora shakes her head at their theories and hands Asarar a watch*
<DeathStar> <Tora> Timer and coordinates
<Xanatos> <Logan> You shouldn't go alone.
<Seraphna> Luci> Seriously though, hazmat or something. That burning sucked.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Okay. *she motions at her coat having tools inside* If anyone wants to join in my Net Jump just grab on
<Jackieness> <Kira> "I suppose..." *grabs a hold* "...just make sure this emss gets cleaned up while we're out."
<Xanatos> 6* Logan grabs his coat and places a hanf on Asarar too.
<Seraphna> Luci> I’ll look into treating these burns for when you guys get back splattered in slime.
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Ah, thanks so much
<DeathStar> *Cypher touches Asarar*
<Seraphna> Luci> Unless you want the force field girl to come.
<Sara> * Chelsea touches
<DeathStar> *Asarar net jumps out and Barry muses quietly*
<DeathStar> <Barry> I now rule the bar.
<Seraphna> Luci> I’m still a partner owner mister.
<DeathStar> *He takes his bow tie off and puts on a bigger bow tie on*
<DeathStar> *then nods, satisfied, cleaning his glass with gusto*
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Geyze
<DeathStar> *Salamander makes a loud noise behind the barrier, making a few Peacekeepers jump*
<DeathStar> <Salamander> ARRGGHHHHH
<DeathStar> *Sylph, who has switched to sprite form, flutters away*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Bored dear?
<DeathStar> <Salamander> I'm going back to my shrine
<DeathStar> *Brooke is playing games with Shiva*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Nonsense. Your daughter will have to take over early.
<DeathStar> *while Gnome is sprawled out*
<DeathStar> <Salamander> .... *Steams - literally*
<DeathStar> *Shade reads quietly*
<Seraphna> **Jennifer is there supporting Celsius**
<Seraphna> **Jaime gently rubs Gnome’s back**
<DeathStar> *Celsius yawns*
<Alicia> * Ceilidh looks over notes, trying to work out the cause of the fog.
<Xanatos> <Simon> I can imagine it's very difficult to go from complete instaneous freedom to...well this. But we're working on as quickly as we can.
<DeathStar> *Neekito and Kito stand off to the side as Selena marches over with the coordinates*
<Sara> <Ellie> Bear with it a bit longer, Sylphie
<Seraphna> **Kaelan slips out of Selena’s shadow with the loot** Speaking of which we have a lead.
<DeathStar> *Sylph turns to normal* I can't lose weight in this place...
<Sara> <Ellie> THAT'S what you're worried about?
<DeathStar> <Selena> *nods* Thanks to this.. um, nice lady.
<ChadWinters`> 6Id floats about.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Really? Any info you have is useful."
<DeathStar> <Selena> We're going to gather a team to go back into the Spirit Realm.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Kaelan. I am Nocturne and Soren’s sensei.
<DeathStar> *Selena eyes Kaelan at that*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Are you volunteering?"
<DeathStar> <Sylph> Sylph has to be at best shape to save Ellie!
<Seraphna> Kaelan> I did promise to save their mothers, and Avenir’s.
<Sara> * Ellie deadpans
<DeathStar> *Neekito steps over to Ellie* I will take care of Ellie
<DeathStar> *Sylph sneaks a fruit*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> I do not recommend bringing spirits.
<DeathStar> <Neekito> Why?
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Gale and Gaia were attacked. Their energy is wrong now.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "You think the corruption will spread?"
<DeathStar> *Neekito glances at Ellie for her orders*
<ChadWinters`> <Id> It's already been spreading has it not?
<Xanatos> <Simon> The...*he checks his notes* Elder spirits on Kumen? They are re-corrupted?
<Seraphna> Kaelan> I suspect an underlying corruption on top of the poison.
<Sara> * Ellie pets Neekito
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I can verify this."
<Seraphna> Kaelan> The monsters are also drawn to spirits like moth to a flame.
<DeathStar> <Neekito> If I cannot go into the realm, should I check out the Elder Spirits and see if it is corruption?
<Sara> <Ellie> Maybe...
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Not alone... but with assistance, it should be fine."
<DeathStar> *Neekito looks like she would rather remain with Ellie, but nods*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Alright, let us head for the spirit realm - at least those who are coming
<DeathStar> *she sets off*
<Seraphna> **Jaime kisses Gnome romantically then rises to join the others**
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "There's no way I would refuse, even with how dangerous it is..."
<DeathStar> *Aimée and Mélodie stand outside the barrier, since they don't have to worry about summoni, and tease Salamander*
<DeathStar> *dancing about all free*
<ChadWinters`> 
<DeathStar> *Gnome waves bye*
<ChadWinters`> 6Id floats along.
<Seraphna> **Terra pops in and flops on Gnome**
<DeathStar> <Salamander> ARARRTHGHHH
<DeathStar> *She tries to get the two*
<Xanatos> 6* Simon walks after Selena. Bix comes running up finally in his original body, he bounces is delight.
<Jackieness> <Lana> *is following after BIX, monitoring hisvitals*
<DeathStar> *soon the group is before the spirit portal and after being suited up, Selena steps through into the fog; the first thing they find is an Id probe having been destoryed by something*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Both a good omen and a bad sign.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...it means these thigns don't ignore machines. Let's see..." *checks the destroyed Id for its memory*
<ChadWinters`> *Id floats over it, flickering a bit.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "The good sign is that it hasn't destroyed the shell?"
<DeathStar> *someone or something is up ahead in the fog*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Well it didn’t eat it. Just smashed.
<Xanatos> 6* BIX kneels and gives it a small wave goodbye.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> That's a bad sign. They don't normally leave anything behind when critical damage is done.
<DeathStar> *as they examine it, it looks like it was eaten almost*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "You don't want to recover anything?"
<DeathStar> *by sharp teeth*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Can you get its memory, Id?"
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Oh my mistake. It did try to eat it.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> No. My shell's are designed not be recovered in fear that someone could use it against us.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> I'm attempting to access it now.
<DeathStar> *Selena points up in the fog* Something is up ahead. I wonder if it's safe to use spirit or magic arts in here
<Xanatos> 6* Simon peers forward with a squint.
<Xanatos> <Simon> We could try, but it may trigger them to start coming for us.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "The nature of this relam might have interfered with your coutnermeasures, Id."
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Likely. The question is whether the countermeasures are actually important here."
<DeathStar> *Neekito attempts to talk in Ellie's ear* <Neekito> Are you reading me, mao?
<Seraphna> Jaime> We should probably stick to non-spirit powers.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> That or something came in faster than I could react to and got lucky. Regardless. 6Id flickers a bit more and the wrecked shell suddenly glows orange slightly then deteriorates in to ash
<Sara> * Ellie blinks. "I-I think so?" she says, out loud.
<Xanatos> <Simon> Ellie? Are you okay?
<ChadWinters`> <Id> I'm trying to process the data now.
<Sara> <Ellie> Sorry, I thought I heard something
<DeathStar> <Neekito> That is good. I will use Sylph's wind ability to talk to you if I have anything useful to add. *long pause* You look pretty today.
<Sara> * Ellie blinks multiple times
<Xanatos> 6* BIX starts to advance trying to get sight on what Selena sees ahead.
<DeathStar> *Bix sees Vyvy, taking samples of the fog*
<DeathStar> *and writing something on the jar*
<DeathStar> *her hair has gotten a bit longer compared to the old days, but still has the eye patch and everything, and is in a suit*
<Xanatos> <BIX> Vyvy.
<Seraphna> Jaime> Little Vyvy, what are you doing here alone?
<DeathStar> <Selena> Who?
<Seraphna> Jaime> She is my niece.
<DeathStar> *Vyvy turns clumsily in her suit* <Vyvy> I'm here to help the Spirits by figuring out this fog.
<Xanatos> <Simon> Have you determined anything that we have failed to discover?
<Seraphna> Jaime> We received coordinates to observe.
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> *muses* There's something in this fog that is trying to kill the spirits.
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> Here. Ellie.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "In the fog, or *in* the fog?"
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Miss Kaelan, tell her hat happened on Kumen."
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Monsters came out of the net portal and attacked Gaia and Gale. They seem off now.
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> You're the greatest Spirit Summoner outside myself. *hard to say if she is joking* Feel out the fog with everything you know about spirits
<Sara> * Ellie closes her eyes and tries to feel it out
<Seraphna> **Jaime frowns but tries it herself even though it was Ellie talked to**
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> *she muses on what Kaelan said* That isn't good. I wonder I should go back and examine them
<Alicia> * Ceilidh tries to feel it out too, even though she knows it wasn't her being asked
<Xanatos> 6* Simon doesn't try it, his summoning ablities not quite like they used to after his time erasure and revival.
<DeathStar> *Ellie gets a perfect spirit role and Jaime does alright. The fog is full of something inside it that is screaming for the spirit's death - so much so it's been poisoning this realm for thousands of years.*
<ChadWinters`> 6Id tries it because he's clearly the superior entity here.
<DeathStar> *almost as if the fog is actively alive*
<Sara> <Ellie> ...The fog almost seems alive and has been here for a very, very long time
<Sara> <Ellie> Longer than I can imagine
<Seraphna> Jaime> Wow. A purely toxic being.
<Xanatos> <BIX> Stop fog. Open Spirit Pools. Purify corrupt spirits. Again.
<Xanatos> <BIX> WHO: BIX BLAST!?
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Perhaps someone can invent a giant vacuum cleaner to soak up all the fog.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "So... the fog has sentience?"
<DeathStar> <Selena> Maybe so. Lets head to where Kaelan told us to go
<Seraphna> Kaelan> I let Alita know about them. She’s a good spirit healer. And apparently Void’s priestess now.
<DeathStar> *she eyes her suit slowly getting all rough looking and marches forward*
<Xanatos> 6* Simon follows while Bix moves quickly to be the lead boy, looking around for any attacker.
<DeathStar> *Vyvy occassionally tries to pinch the fog, as if trying to crush the stuff inside it*
<Seraphna> **Kaelan muses** I wonder if I can strengthen the suits with shadow silk.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "How far now?"
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I am humbled... I didn't think the fog itself would be alive."
<Sara> <Ellie> ...Does that do anything? *she asks Vyvy at the pinching*
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> Um .... *she looks around* Maybe!
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "... I'm completely out of my element here..."
<Seraphna> Jaime> We’re in the Spirit Realm, we are all out of our element.
<DeathStar> *They soon come across trees and fields, and find what looks to be .... nothing in the field. Just an overgrown field with heavy fog. But floating in the air are those blob creatures from the Net*
<DeathStar> <Selena> .... What?!
<Sara> <Ellie> Slime monsters. Gross
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Interesting. 6Scans the area where the floating to see if this is where they're breaching in
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...what are those things?"
<Seraphna> Jaime> I’m getting slight deja by here.
<Alicia> * Ceilidh scans the slime monsters, and also the fog, trying to determine if the two are the same, or even similar at all.
<Seraphna> Jaime> They remind me of the things that ate the other timeline.
<DeathStar> *There is definitely something in the field. There is also other life forms not on this plane of existence moving about the field*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Those are what tried to eat the spirits.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "... well, that's interesting and informative... but I don't know what it means yet..."
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Attack from a range, they splatter a form of acid and ignore spirit powers.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Do you have anything, Id?"
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "Is magic 'spirit powers'?"
<Xanatos> 6* Simon hmms and kneels, trying to feel out to see if there's any sort of mana in this zone since they know spirit is around.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Not if you form it from Mana or God Power.
<Sara> <Ellie> It's more complicated than that, I think, since there's Earth magic, Maka magic, and others
<Sara> <Ellie> I think there are many kinds of magic from many different sources
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "In that case..." *throws out a magic blast at the goo*
<DeathStar> <Selena> They haven't noticed us yet. They seem to be focused on something else
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Most likely they adapted to Spirit Energy living here.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> It's complicated, Lana.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "You said that they splash something that eats away at material if you damage them?"
<DeathStar> *The creatures seem to be hovering around the area, as if tracking something that the group cannot see*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> And skin.
<Xanatos> 6* BIX scratches his head, looking confused.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "If only my vision was augmented..."
<Xanatos> <BIX> Deliberate movement. See invisible.
<Seraphna> Jaime> Something else is here.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "I wodner if the fog is made of the same substance that these things are... or maybe the fog is alot of small version of them. I mean, the fog is eatting at our equipment like that."
<Alicia> * Ceilidh attempts to sense the invisible things.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> I would argue that the Fog itself is the main body and some of these creatures are condensed versions of it.
<DeathStar> *Ceilidh fails - she can re-roll and try again*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "But you said complicated, Id. Explain, please."
<Seraphna> **Jaime feels for thoughts in the area besides theirs**
<DeathStar> *Jaime doesn't feel any thoughts*
<ChadWinters`> <Id> The best I can surmise is that a lot of the Realms problems and the Net's problem originates from here.
<Alicia> * Ceilidh tries once more, trying different methods to attempt to sense whatever's there. *rerolling*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Mindless…
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Well, that seems to be the going hypothesis... but what exactly is here?"
<Xanatos> <Simon> So is it a safe theory to assume that in addition to the net, and the spirit world, there could be a third way of accessing this space?
<DeathStar> *Ceilidh would sense that there is indeed something else in the fog besides the group, but on another plane of existence right now*
<Xanatos> <Simon> Oh....or is there an overlap with the Net here and someone is there?
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Yes. In fact, the something isn't on this plane."
<ChadWinters`> <Id> I would theorize that their is most likely a 3rd event that's out of phase.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I think Id has it."
<DeathStar> *suddenly two of the monsters turn toward the group*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Maybe...but how to see it without makign things go bad..."
<DeathStar> <Selena> I think we've drawn attention
<DeathStar> *the fog begins to shudder*
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "Oops, that's probably my fault!"
<DeathStar> *And more begin to appear*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "My big mouth."
<Seraphna> Jaime> A lot of attention.
<DeathStar> <Selena> Hold the line if you can!
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Finding it would take some time.
<Xanatos> <BIX> Retreat??!
<DeathStar> *The monsters - all for Selena*
<DeathStar> *rushing her*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Oh great!
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...Selena, your pact!"
<Xanatos> 6* Simon forms his spear and tries to form his ice wall in front of Selena.
<Seraphna> **Kaelan throws a blast of foxfire**
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Why her? I... OH!"
<Xanatos> 6* BIX fire out blasts of fire.
<Seraphna> **Jaime fires a hyperspace blast**
<Alicia> * Sparkling does what Sparkling does best, firing rainbow beams of maka magic
<DeathStar> <Selena>There's not a lot I can do about my bloodline! *She leaps back*
<ChadWinters`> <ID> But I will attempt to see if I can trace the 3rd thing. 6Id begins to start scanning, changing when things fail utilizing Taiga's coding for fidnding different realities as a base
<Jackieness> <Lana> *brings up her console and tries to but her barrier up as a shell aroudn the team*
<DeathStar> *As the creatures ar hit, splattering*
<Seraphna> **Kaelan forms foxholes your redirect the splatter**
<Seraphna> **your/to
<DeathStar> *Vyvy begins to use her powers to protect Selena*
<DeathStar> <-SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Same Place!
<DeathStar> *Asarar walks around, having formed a suit around herself and the team, the blood red fog making it hard to see - but before them is a massive templar ship*
<DeathStar> *Er ancient
<DeathStar> <Asarar> What in the bloody hell?
<Sara> <Chelsea> Looks like Ancient tech, at a guess
<DeathStar> *Asarar uses her visor to send the information to Tora while she circles it; the fog clearly coming out of it*
<Xanatos> <Logan> Nothing like any of the ships we've seen so far at least.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "One of those pyramid ships like our place on geyze."
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Yeah this thing is old. Definitely a broke down version of some of the school's buildings they have
<Xanatos> <Logan> Oh shit you're right.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "We need one of the experts from Geyze here... but why is it here in Kumen's Net?"
<Sara> <Chelsea> That is the question... I'm an expert on tech, but Ancient tech is a whole different ballgame
<DeathStar> *inside the rooms still seem to be semi-active, with ancient words flickering. Asarar steps inside*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I'm guessing the Aquarius and Mew Mew doesn't run on Ancient tech unless Tora was being cheeky
<Xanatos> <Logan> Still active-ish, wonder if there's anyone in here?
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Careful... this is probably the heart of darkness."
* Ari` has joined #TAW-Session557
<Sara> <Chelsea> Some of the Aquarius tech may be vaguely based on Ancient tech, but it's very much modern. We would never use tech we didn't understand and have full control over
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I got a question. Tora said that the Net was definitely not the cause due to it overlaying on the Spirit Realm, right?
<DeathStar> *She looks around the Ancient ship as they walk around the base of it*
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Mmmhm?
<Sara> <Chelsea> To me, that seems like conjecture, though
<Xanatos> <Logan> She built it so of course she doesn't think it's the problem, right?
<Jackieness> <Kira> "What if this thing was in Kumen's original spirit realm and fell through into the Net."
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Alright. But why is this ship spewing fog out here in the Net.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> *taps her visor* Are you getting this, Tora?
<Xanatos> <Logan> Should we blow it up?
<DeathStar> *there seems to be a delay* ---- after a bit, Tora responds, crackled* <Tora on comms* That's an ancient ship?! ... *she can be heard rustling papers, cursing*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Might make things worse."
<Seraphna> Alita voice> That’s a Croza vessel. They should have all been destroyed.
<DeathStar> <Tora on comms> Alright I got a theory. But it might be wrong.
<Xanatos> <Logan> Croza? Well can we...fly it away?
<Sara> <Chelsea> Destroyed? Don't you have stuff like that at the Academy?
<Seraphna> Alita> Yes, that had to be preserved. But Simon… it is difficult to explain.
<DeathStar> <Tora on comms> *Seems to be listening to them all* My theory is this. This is in the spirit realm. This ship right here. Probably in a mangled or buried state.
<DeathStar> <Tora on comms> You're seeing it due ot the powers of the Net.
<DeathStar> <Tora on comms> If you exited the ship right now into the Spirit Realm, for example, it could kill you
<Sara> <Chelsea> How... encouraging
<Xanatos> <Logan> So wait. What? How does that work?
<Seraphna> Alita> It may be the source of the corruption. They started this.
<DeathStar> <Tora comm> The Net has always altered the world a bit to allow Net Runners to do things
<Jackieness> <Kira> "So what are we suppsoed to do?"
<DeathStar> <Tora comm> Recall all the heists you probably pulled due to buildings being slightly different
<Xanatos> <Logan> The Net is a layer on top of the spirit world but this is existing in both and we could accidentally transition from this....data layer into the real spirit world?
<DeathStar> >Tora comm> If you exited the Net now, you would enter into the real Spirit Realm I believe yes.
<Seraphna> Alita> Shut it down, perhaps a corrupted spirit is still inside? They had them on the ships.
<Xanatos> <Logan> None of these controls look legible.
<DeathStar> *Asarar studies them, then peers at a higher part of the ship* So go up?
<DeathStar> *She eyes their time*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "It was the Geyze group that knows this stuff."
<Xanatos> <Logan> I guess so. 6* He looks for a way to ascend like stairs or something.
<Seraphna> Alita> You don’t have an Id with you, do you?
<Xanatos> <Logan> Nah, little bot is weird.
<Seraphna> Alita> A pity, he can interface with the ship.
<DeathStar> *As they get higher up, they sees tubes pumping out the fog as well as a broken chamber of some spirit that had already left ages ago*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Anyone read ancient here? There's a spirit that left
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Chamber is empty, so where is the fog coming from?"
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Take pictures and send them back to homebase."
<Xanatos> 6* Logan tries to trace those tubes, following that.
<Seraphna> Alita> …Could it be exhaust from the power center?
<DeathStar> *It seems to be coming from the next room*
<Seraphna> Alita> Show me the words.
<DeathStar> *Asarar kneels and shows the words*
<Seraphna> **Alita having extensively studied the language reads it out**
<Xanatos> 6* Logan moves to the next room, pulling his pistol out before he goes.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Spirit who helps the passing of other Spirits.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> What?
<Seraphna> Alita> …Death.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Alright
<Jackieness> <Kira> "But wasn't that spirit killed a while back anyway?"
<DeathStar> *As they step into the other room, they find the monsters already active, but much larger than before, guarding the tubes, radiating an aura*
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Hostiles!
<Seraphna> **Alita lets void know a Death Spirit may be the cause**
<Jackieness> <Kira> "...did you have to shout...? We need to get out of here..."
<DeathStar> *the creatures begin to move forward*
<DeathStar> *Cypher grabs Chelsea*
<Seraphna> Alita> Either start killing then or go!
<Xanatos> 6* Logan tries to see past the creatures to see if he can see anything causing the fog.
<DeathStar> *there seems to be an ancient machine that is causing it, constantly pumping it out*
<DeathStar> *They zoom forward, multiplying in the fog*
<DeathStar> *becoming a mini army in seconds*
<Xanatos> 6* Logan tchs and backs up quickly, turning to run.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "They are spawning! Run!" *retreats back*
<Xanatos> <Logan> Go!
<DeathStar> *Asarar rushes for the exit* Damit dammit dammit!
<Seraphna> Alita> Spiritual Pollution… interesting.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<Xanatos> <Logan> If we make it out of this alive we're bringing bombs next time!
<DeathStar> *Selena pants, her suit slightly torn, as the creatures just seem to be appearing out of nowhere*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Are they coming from the other plane?"
<Seraphna> **Jaime keeps up her barrage while Kaelan keeps splatter off the team**
<Jackieness> <Lana> *tries to keep her barrier up to protect the team* "...cna't hold this forever guys..."
<DeathStar> <Selena> ... I'm feeling .... *her face looks a bit weird, as if the fog is affecting her more than others due to her half-spirit nature*
<DeathStar> *she tries to seal her suit*
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Interesting. I'm detecting a massive ship. beneath us.
<Seraphna> Jaime> A ship!? In here!?
<Sara> <Ellie> Beneath?
<DeathStar> *Neekito appears out of nowhere, having snuck in, wearing her suit*
<Xanatos> 6* BIX keeps blasting but is getting tired.
<DeathStar> <Neekito> Do you need help, Ellie? *Vyvy slashes at her enemies*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "How do we get in... is it safe to get in?"
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Yes. If my sensors are correct. It would appear to be of Ancient design.
<DeathStar> *Neekito moves over, tripping in her suit, to protect her*
<Xanatos> 6* Simon forms ice spikes, flinging them out for blob creatures.
<Seraphna> Jaime> Get me a clear location and I can take us.
<Xanatos> <Simon> An ancient ship here?
<DeathStar> *The blobs pause in appearing for am oment - as if focused on someone else*
<DeathStar> *Selena seals her suit, but remains hunched over*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...they stopped, someone do something."
<Seraphna> Kaelan> There it is again, thst other thing.
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> ... Hmph
<Xanatos> <BIX> To the ship!
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "How would we even describe it?"
<Seraphna> **Kaelan nods and focuses her power, then sends a destructive dark orb out** Hope you have a retreat!
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Give me a moment to try and find a safe coordinate for you to risk jumping in to
<DeathStar> *they are wiped out*
<DeathStar> *more reappearing, as if aggroed*
<DeathStar> *And go back after the group*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Respawns!"
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Well that worked a bit.
<Alicia> * Sparkling keeps firing on the spawning monsters
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> .... good job
<Xanatos> <Simon> If we get another lull, we should take a moment and stop attacking.
<DeathStar> *Id would find many parts of the ship have been collapsed and destroyed, so jumping will be risky, but he does find one that might be okay - if the group is willing to risk it*
<Seraphna> **Kaelan sighs and grabs something out of her pack, throwing Goddess Charms out and making a foxfire barrier**
<ChadWinters`> <Id> In what form do you want me to give you to use Jaime.
<DeathStar> *The creatures transform*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "... I guess I'm going through."
<Seraphna> Jaime> A picture or exact measurement from where we are. I’m going to cheat.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh... they are mutating!"
<DeathStar> *suddenly looking larger and giving off a death like aura*
<DeathStar> *Neekito's spirit attacks begins to be absorbed*
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> Aaah! My attacks!
<Alicia> * Ceilidh jumps through.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Death Spirit!
<ChadWinters`> 6Id gives a measurement of distance and a direction. 1"It will be risky by the way."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Staying out here is suicidal!"
<Seraphna> **Jaime nods and seems to focus on something** Gather.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> If we do not survive, my other shell's will blame someone here for everyones death.
<Xanatos> 6* BIX back up, looking ready to throw more fire if need be. Simon checks on Selena, pulling her close to Jaime as he tried to get some healing on her.
<DeathStar> *Selena nods her thanks
<Jackieness> <Lana> *shrinks ehr shell barrier a bit to buy time*
<DeathStar> *The creatures continue to advance and Neekito throws up earth walls from Gnome's power, but nothing slows; one grabs her arm and dissovles her suit.*
<DeathStar> <Neekito> .... tech. *anothr reaches for Ellie and Vyvy*
<Seraphna> **Kaelan moves close and gets in the group and Jaime starts to warp them, Kaelan slashes the grabber**
<Sara> <Ellie> Neekito! It's absorbing your attacks! Get back! *she slashes at the one reaching for her with Rending Gale*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Teleport us, we can hold them off!"
<Jackieness> cna't
<DeathStar> *it's knocked back*
<DeathStar> *Right as the group appears in a dark room*
<Seraphna> Jaime> …Best result…
<Seraphna> **Kaelan forms a bit of foxfire**
<DeathStar> *Comedically, Asarar's group appears on the surface, and finds the surface enemies aggroed.*
<Alicia> * Ceilidh takes a deep breath.
<ChadWinters`> 6Id glows a bit. 1"Does everyone have all of their extremities?
<Jackieness> <Lana> *drops her spell and falls over omn to her butt* "Gaaaaaaah"
<Xanatos> 6* Simon checks himself over quickly before checking on both Selena and Neekito.
<DeathStar> *Neekito pants in the fog, looking like it's getting to her*
<DeathStar> <NEekito> Fine
<DeathStar> *her ears are drooped and panting like a cat who wants water*
<Seraphna> Jaime> For now. Let’s find the source of all this. Can’t be a coincidence.
<Xanatos> <Simon> I suspect that means she's not fine. We should hurry and figure out what this ship is before we leave.
<DeathStar> <Neekito> This fog tastes nasty
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Anyone have a light?"
<Seraphna> Kaelan> I would expect you or Id to know, Simon.
<Alicia> * Ceilidh casts her light spell. It's not powerful, but it works.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> I am doing my best to compare to all my logs.
<DeathStar> *the light shines a wrecked ancient ship - it is clearly 12,000 years old or so*
<DeathStar> *most of the equipment seems offline, but there is clearly something still working in the ship*
<Xanatos> <Simon> Ancient ships aren't exactly a memory of mine any longer. But even without those... I know these designs, patterns, language.
<Seraphna> Jaime> Looks like the academy temples in here.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Oh, wow.... a Croza ship." *stands back up on wobbly legs*
<DeathStar> *twistd mangled passage leads upward and soon the group find themselves in front of the spirit chamber that is empty
<Xanatos> <BIX> ... 6* Bix moves around curiously.
<DeathStar> <Selena> ... that thing gives me the creeps...
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Fortunately, you have Id and myself here. We've both repaired and piloted these."
<Seraphna> Jaime> What’s this place?
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "A Croza ship."
<DeathStar> <Neekito> Feels like yesterday...
<Xanatos> <Simon> A spirit was stored here in this chamber.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "This must have been the spirit chamber for the corrupted spirit that was assigned to this ship."
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Yes. 6Id scans the chamber
<Seraphna> Jaime> Dank.
<DeathStar> *it is clear the spirit chamber was emptied of it's spirit long ago*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "So, where is it? ...or is it the fog?"
<DeathStar> *it reading what the Asarar group read*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "The croza... errr... Acnients, powered everythign with Spirit energy. The renegade croza took it a step further."
<DeathStar> *the next room seem to have powered, but is sealed*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> You know, hell is starting to feel hospitable.
<DeathStar> *tubes of fog running from it*
<Seraphna> Jaime> That crap is coming out of here.
<Xanatos> <Simon> Spirit who helps the passing of other spirits. That is...certainly an aspect of our issue here.
<Alicia> * Ceilidh is already working on trying to open the door.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> I believe we found our source.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Passing sounds like Death.
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "...it does."
<DeathStar> *Ceilidh breaks the door open and finds the source of the fog. The machine seems to be running unguarded oddly*
<Xanatos> <BIX> Destroy source?
<DeathStar> *there's an on off device with it*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Don't damage it..." *walks over to examine the machine*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Disable it or blow it. There’s a switch there?
<Xanatos> 6* Simon moves in to start inspecting the machinery, trying to determine it's original goal.
<Alicia> * Ceilidh does similar
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> We need to stop this evil
<Seraphna> Jaime> Shut it off before studying it.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Id, scan the itnernals while Simon and I figure out the controls, please."
<ChadWinters`> 6Id floats beside Lana then begins scanning as she commands
<Xanatos> <Simon> We need to understand it. Shutting it off will change little in this moment.
<DeathStar> *the machinary seems to be some sort of almost transformation device of the spirit realm*
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "How do we shut it off?"
<Jackieness> <Lana> *turns and raises a figner* "That off could be for tcontainment. If we swithc it off, it could be like a fog bomb going off. Patience!"
<Jackieness> <Lana> *turns and resumes her examination*
<DeathStar> *Selena and Neekito sit off in the corner while they work*
<Xanatos> <BIX> Fog bomb. 6* He giggles to himself and makes a rasberry sound with his tongue.
<Seraphna> Jaime> Fine just hurry with the brainy stuff.
<Xanatos> <Simon> I think this was designed to....teraform the spirit planet.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Its been runnign for millenia, a few minutes isn't going to shift the balnce any further... maybe a sort of terraforming set up..."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Simon, jinx!"
<DeathStar> *The ancient machine gives off little in the way of clues - the tubes are pumping the fog into the atmosphere and it seems to be producing more somehow. Spirit-tech? It could take weeks to learn how. They could try to destroy the device to bypass the on-off switch*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Which would explain why it’s screwing things up.
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> That fog is actively working to kill the spirits
<Xanatos> 6* Simon nods to her and looks to see if there's any other way of deactivating it, if not he would place his hand on the switch and pause.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Seems it as designed to terraform then, or it was corrupted.
<DeathStar> *When SImon messes with the switch, message appears*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Well if it used that spirit chamber as a source…
<DeathStar> *in ancient*
<ChadWinters`> 6Id eyes it and translates it
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Well, we don't have much time here... so... ah!" *checks the screen to read it out*
<Alicia> * Ceilidh reads it too, or just listens, since she's not as skilled in Croza
<DeathStar> *Certain are you that you wish to go through the emergency stop protocol for the spirit resistance terraforming protocol project?"
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Spirit Resistance?
<Seraphna> Jaime> Yes stop it.
<DeathStar> <Neekito> Hm. They wanted to kill them or conrol them...
<Xanatos> <Simon> Ah just a confirmation. But now we know, we can study it more later but the danger should be stopped. 6* He shuts it off.
<DeathStar> *She eyes the blackness going through her body*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...well, its off..." *checks the tubes and machinery*
<DeathStar> *there's a noise as it shuts off, then another noise as the machine begins to make a shaking sound*
<DeathStar> *The tubes beginning to back up*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...oh no..."
<Xanatos> <Simon> ....
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Time to go.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...we just made things...way....waaaaay worse..."
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> I believe after 12,000 years of running this machine shutting off might not be happy.
<Xanatos> <Simon> We were trying to avoid this! 6* He tchs and backs up
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "This is why we needed to study it first."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "But its backing up... as the rpessure rises, it could explode...we may have accidentlaly killed the spirit realm."
<Seraphna> Kaelan> No we just built up a boom. I got this exit plan. **she starts forming a foxhole path back to the Spirit Gate**
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Perhaps Jaime can teleport it in to a sun.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "If we all die here, I suggest blaming Jaime."
<DeathStar> *The ship begins to make a noise from he pressure*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Time to go.
<DeathStar> *Selena crawls*
<Xanatos> <Simon> ...oh dear. 6* He rubs his face.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Selena needs help, anyway!
<DeathStar> *for the foxhole*
<Xanatos> 6* BIX picks up Selena.
<DeathStar> <Selena> Thanks
<Jackieness> <Lana> *heads for the foxhole*
<ChadWinters`> 6Id floats for the foxhole
<DeathStar> *Neekito *Stands*
<Seraphna> **Jaime picks up Selena and heads through, drooong something**
<DeathStar> *Vyvy flails and runs through*
<Seraphna> **dropping
<Xanatos> 6* Simon and BIX move for the foxhole, Simon pausing to help Neekito.
<DeathStar> <Neekito> *nods, looking thoughtful*
<Alicia> * Sparkling heads through the foxhole, grabbing Ceilidh
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> *Asarar has begun to lead hre team away when Tora contacts them*
<DeathStar> <Tora on comms> We got a situation
<Xanatos> <Logan> Worse than our current one!?
<DeathStar> <Tora on comms> I'm detecting a massive build up at that ship - in the real world
<DeathStar> <Tora on comms> I'm not if you want to get the hell out of there or do something
<DeathStar> *Asarar groans*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "We need an exit path, fast!"
<Seraphna> Alita> The ship is in this plane too?
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Yeah yeah
<Xanatos> <Logan> I officially hate this day.
<Seraphna> Luci> I demand a flow chart.
<DeathStar> *Asarar is preparing to speed them away*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Hold on
<Jackieness> <Kira> *holds on*
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Great. Here we go
<DeathStar> *Asarar, once everyone is on, begins to use her Netrunner abiities to speed away as fast as she can when an explosion rocks the Net. As far as Tora and Alita is aware, the entire Net crashes before their eyes*
<DeathStar> <Tora> ....I Think we might have lost them
<Seraphna> Alita> Whay if it spilled them out somewhere?
<DeathStar> <Tora> ... maybe.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> *As the team spills out in front of the gate, Neekito makes sure Ellie goes through first, then selena*
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> ... *steps into the real world*
<Seraphna> **Jaime slips through, Kaelan following up the rest to close the holes behind them**
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Th... this is very bad..."
<Xanatos> 6* BIX guides people through. Simon steps through, looking very concerned.
<Alicia> * Ceilidh looks almost shellshocked.
<DeathStar> *suddenly the ship explodes in the distance, massive energy and fog shooting up*
<Jackieness> <Lana> *hunches over, trying to catch her breath*
<DeathStar> *As the fog in this area is drawn in*
<ChadWinters`> 6Id floats through after the group
<DeathStar> *clearing it out*
<DeathStar> *Neekito watches the ship blow up and she warps out to use her powers to help destroy the ship8
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "... did we do fine?"
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Interesting. It does appear to be clearing out.
<Seraphna> **Jaime has a relieved look on her face.**
<DeathStar> *The fog gathers in the area*
<ChadWinters`> <Id> ...It seems to be condensing.
<Seraphna> Jaime> Still some remaining but it worked.
<DeathStar> *massive amounts of fog gather in the distance as Neekito goes nuclear on the remaining ship to try to wipe it out*
<DeathStar> *it blows up and no more fog gathers*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...we don't know what side-effects this might cause though...ahhh...cramps..."
<DeathStar> *Suddenly though the remaining fog zooms toward the group, with monsters inside it*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> I think close to the best outcome, we’ll need to defeat the rest of the fog… whoop!
<DeathStar> *it pushes through the spirit realm gate and into the real world*
<Xanatos> 6* Simon blinks and raises up an ice wall to block the spirit portal.
<Seraphna> **Kaelan tossss her shield at it, using her foxfire bomb**
<ChadWinters`> <Id> I would suggest that those with strong group...
<DeathStar> *just passing through the ice wall*
<ChadWinters`> <Id> It appears to decide to escape.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...close the gate!!!"
<DeathStar> *it seems the spirit realm is now cleansed*
<Xanatos> 6* BIX looks confused and tries to close the gate.
<Xanatos> <Simon> ...how did it pass through a solid?
<DeathStar> *The gate to the spirit realm closes, post fog escape*
<Seraphna> **Jaime starts blasting what she can**
<Jackieness> <Lana> "..." *looks at the others* "...you do realize that the spirits are on Geyze...with... the fog now, right?"
<Seraphna> Kaelan> It consumes spirit energy. I think.
<DeathStar> *The fog floats arounf the academy, avoiding Kaelan, and goes after oddly enough Selena*
<DeathStar> *and passes through her, gathering the blackness in her*
<DeathStar> *Selena falls over*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "... I realise..." *seems to be recovering*
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> What? *She checks Selena*
<Seraphna> **Kaelan tosses a sword at Selena’s side and a holy energy, not spirit barrier surrounds her**
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> She's not breathing
<Xanatos> 6* Simon tchs and tries to shoot ice shards at the fog.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Where is Alita?!"
<Alicia> * Ceilidh moves to try to heal Selena.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> **keeps lashing out at the fog**
<Seraphna> Kaelan> On Kumen.
<DeathStar> *it enters the fog and it finally stops floating around and floats down and lands on the ground, beginning to form into something, flickering. It's aura changing. As Kaelan lashes, it pulls her in*
<Xanatos> 6* Simon stops attacking and runs over to Selena's side checking to see if he can heal her.
<Xanatos> 6* BIX jerks and tries to catch Kaelan and pull her back.
<DeathStar> *Selena coughs and sits up next to Ceilidh and SImon* ---I--I--- I thought I saw the other side...
<Seraphna> **Kaelan lashes a tail out and pulls herself back, blasting foxfire**
<ChadWinters`> <Id> I will record this for posterit reasons.
<ChadWinters`> *Posterity*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Welcome back then."
<DeathStar> *Bix manages to pull Kaelan out by her tail, looking half dead as the fog finally forms. Turning into the original Death Spirit. It forms it's scythe*
<Seraphna> **Jaime teleports to put herself in the way of the other spirits and blasts at the spirit with pure hyperspace**
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...we didn't need the extra healer... but... uhhh... the grim Reaper just showed up..."
<Sara> <Ellie> Oh no!
<Alicia> * Sparkling fires on the death spirit too
<Seraphna> **Kaelan looks pale, backing away and her eyes glow**
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...guys...maybe not piss it off?"
<DeathStar> *The Spirit is hit and turns toward Jaime and clips her hyperspace arm, blackening it and then is hit by magic; looking at itself, there seems to be some damage and it sinks into the ground, leaving blackness spreading for 10 feet*
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> IT looks like it ran
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "I thought it was attacking us... sorry..."
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Some of you did just attack it.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...non-spirit magic seems to hurt it."
<DeathStar> <Selena> Just what was that thing?
<Seraphna> **Jaime slides back and hisses, she eyes her arm**
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Death.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "it looke dliek the Grim Reaper, an aspect of death."
<DeathStar> <Selena> And that was the Ancient's weapon? A spirit to keep the other spirits in line?
<Seraphna> **Kaelan drops something into a shadow heeding her mistress’ advice. Sending for Andrea**
<DeathStar> *She shakily stands up*
<Xanatos> <Simon> That seems to be the case, yes.
<Sara> <Ellie> It's... why would they make a spirit like that... I feel bad for it... it must be so lonely and sad, designed just to do something like that
<ChadWinters`> <Id> It may not have been made.
<Seraphna> **Jaime heads for where the spirits are kept**
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Or they intentionally enslaved sucha spirit to use as a weapon against the otehr Spirits."
<Xanatos> 6* BIX joins Jaime
<DeathStar> *The other spirits seem to have exited the barrier, sensing Death*
<Seraphna> **Terra hides behind Gnome**
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "... I should apologise..."
<DeathStar> <Salamander> We sense somthing loose on Geyze
<Seraphna> Jaime> Death.
<DeathStar> *Gnome hugs on Terra*
<DeathStar> <Shade> ...
<Seraphna> Jaime> **holds up her arm**
<DeathStar> *Brooke takes her arm to help make it batter*
<Seraphna> Jaime> The spirit realm is cleansed though.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "It was in the Spirit Realm, hooked up to an Anicent machine thatw as causing the poisonous fog."
<DeathStar> <Gnome> Yes... it'll take time to recover. But if Death goes back to it and makes it bad again...
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Lana is correct. Do any of you have any memory of this spirit?
<Seraphna> Jaime> I think he’s weakened. We damaged him easily and my implosion grenade absorbed most of the fog before he could form it.
<Xanatos> <Simon> I will work on a spell to track the Death Spirit.
<DeathStar> <Shade> We dealt with it before.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "We... don't even know where Death was going or what it is going to do.."
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Oh?
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Is there anything we should be concerned off with it?
<Seraphna> Jaime> He’s likely going to try to get his energy back. Either we wait for it or we stop him. Or we somehow talk him down.
<DeathStar> <Shade> *muses* Yes. This spirit will not go down easily. It can kill easily and will not be killes easily
<Xanatos> 6* Simon tries to form a spell to get a reading of the energy death left. So they can try to trace it later.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "But what does it want? What is its Raison d'etre?"
<DeathStar> <Shade> Honesly this is a worse case scenario.
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "Maybe there's another way to deal with it?"
<DeathStar> <Shade> Last time we dealt with it?
<ChadWinters`> <Id> So we should consider it a threat then.
<DeathStar> <Shade> I could not recall much reason in it
<DeathStar> *Death seems to have gone northward right now, toward the Amazon territory*
<DeathStar> *From there, who knows*
<Seraphna> Jaime> 12,000 years used as a battery.
<DeathStar> <Shade> I believe, if I ahd to guess, that fog was meant to make it
<Xanatos> <Simon> We need the Peacekeeper to alert all field agents, any sightings should be recorded and they should remain far away. I will let Lumi know.
<DeathStar> *She muses*
<DeathStar> <Shade> If what you're saying is right
<Seraphna> Jaime> The ancient text said it was a Passing Spirit.
<Seraphna> Jaime> Shouldn’t that mean a merciful form of death?
<DeathStar> <Shade> I will try to look into it more. *she looks serious* You all should avoid the spirit. Mortals die easily to it
<DeathStar> *She moves off*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "The display mentioend a spirit resistance terraforming protocol project... does that sound familiar to any of you elder spirits?"
<DeathStar> <Selena> ... I think that is her way of saying buzz off
<ChadWinters`> <Id> If it was tainted by the Ancients then it could be more aggressive.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Lucky for me I am not of flesh and bone.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "And honestly... it didn't really try to kill anyone until it was attacked."
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "It almost certainly was."
<DeathStar> *Sylph moves to Ellie, peering at her, perhaps recalling Ellieand Death lst time*
<DeathStar> <Selena> I will go talk to mom about this Death
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "Can we uncorrupt it?"
<Jackieness> <Lana> "So it must have some purpose or goal if its on the move."
<Sara> * Ellie looks at Sylph
<Seraphna> Jaime> …We do have another option.
<DeathStar> <Selena> What's that?
<Seraphna> Jaime> It’s a spirit… can’t we trap it?
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "In theory, at least."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Right, the Croza spirit traps. We still have the designs!"
<Xanatos> <Simon> .....spirit traps. Yes that's in my notes.
<Seraphna> Jaime> If we can contain him maybe we can cure his corruption.
<Xanatos> <Simon> We will be trapping him...after decades of being trapped, however.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Also true."
<ChadWinters`> <Id> It is that or we destroy him.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Better than killing Death I suppose. Though I did that before.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Well it was the God of Death but still.
<DeathStar> <Selena> Lets learn what we can of it, then try to talk to it and learn what it's up to
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Perhaps we could send Kaelan out alone to deal with it?
<DeathStar> <Selena> But if all else fails we might need to fight it
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Nah I’d need my squad.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Well, I'm going to go build a spirit trap. Simon, Id, coming with?"
<Xanatos> <Simon> Very well.
<DeathStar> <Selena> And I'm going to the castle
<ChadWinters`> <Id> I will assist hoever I can
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Just like last time, but with better resources." *heads to where she has re-established her lab*
<DeathStar> *Neekito arrives in the cover of darkness, completely covered in that fog darkness that the Death spirit sucked out of Selena and falls over*
<DeathStar> <Sylph> ... *poke*
<Xanatos> 6* BIX also kneels to poke
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "What even is this fog?"
<DeathStar> <Selena> I suppose we should study Neekito while she is in this state
<DeathStar> <Selena> I admit I feel better now that crap it out of me
<DeathStar> <Selena> Minus the dying
<Xanatos> <BIX> Poor Neekito.
<Xanatos> <BIX> Not heal?
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Seems to cleanse it you either need to touch Death or take a bath in the spirit chamber. I suggest the latter?
<DeathStar> -Going to END here and switch to the mini room-

<DeathStar> *Neekito has been hooked up to be examined while Selena sits with Celes*
<DeathStar> *Asarar's team is also on site*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Geeze, what a mess. Death. *hands in coa*
<DeathStar> *The Geyze Spirits seem to be getting ready for war, evne Sylph looks serious*
<Ari`> * Nicolette leafs through a dusty tome, trying to find references to this death spirit.
<DeathStar> *outside the group encountered it once before, there have been odd references here and there of a "spiri of death" appearing throughout Geyze history*
<DeathStar> *apparently it was rare enough that the spirits never encountered it back in their hay day*
<DeathStar> *Selena steps in* Mother was not much of a fighter back then and knows little of it
<DeathStar> <Selena> The other spirits are all ready to fight this Spirit. They all seem really... on edge
<DeathStar> *Gnome does push ups and falls over*
* Seraphna has joined #TAW-Session557-Minis
<Seraphna> **Jaime watches Gnome** Feeling better dear?
<DeathStar> *Gnome sits up* Trying to be ready for when we fight this bad spirit
<Seraphna> **Terra lifts Soren and Nocturne like weights**
<Seraphna> Jaime> I can see that.
<DeathStar> *Sylph lifts Ellie up*
<DeathStar> *Selena leans against the wall by Nico*
<Ari`> <Nicolette> "It seems almost like the anti-spirit."
<DeathStar> <Selena> I wonder if the correlation then. Maybe the anti-spirit are tied somehow. The fact everyone beat this spirit and it can just come back. I wonder if any spirit is able to come back given enough time and conditions.
<Seraphna> **Jaime trains with Gnome**
<DeathStar> <Selena> Do you think they really can reason with it?
<Ari`> <Nicolette> "Getting it to sit down and listen might be the trick."
<DeathStar> <Selena> *eyes the book on the appearances - many ending with death, one or two with no violence*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Trapping it to talk. I wonder how that will play out
<DeathStar> *Gnome lifts Jaime up with her strength*
<Ari`> <Nicolette> "Don't want to do that directly. Though... locking everyone in a room together might not be so bad. You try to tie them down, and... things will be messy."
<DeathStar> <Selena> I agree. I can only try to be ready with my forces. Being a threat that will shake everyone, all the leaders and Peacekeepers will take charge. I just hope we all make the right choice. If the Ancients gave us this spirit to be a danger and we wish to try to disfuse it or make it an ally, we need to ... *She trials off with thought*
<DeathStar> *She turns to Nicolette* I wonder something. We cannot verify if it's corrupted - or a type of corruption - without examining it. But that fog it took into itself definitely had something in it. It made me feel wrong. And I know it did the same to other people. *motions at Neekito*
<DeathStar> *she eyes the results - so far it is not corruption like the spirits had before turning them evil, but a type of miasmic poisoning to her spirit body, almost anti-thesis it seems*
<Ari`> <Nicolette> "Yeah... it was more... harmful, than corrupting. Definitely."
<Seraphna> **Jaime nuzzles Gnome**
Session Close: Tue May 10 00:00:00 2022
Session Start: Tue May 10 00:00:00 2022
Session Ident: #TAW-Session557-Minis
<DeathStar> <Selena> I'll make note of that if that spirit can take in that type of harmful material without being affected while others were affected. It might mean something. Or nothing. I usually leave that kind of thinking to Lana or Ceilidh.
<DeathStar> <Selena> *she turns to look at the research* I did magic hurts it.
<DeathStar> *did note
<DeathStar> <Selena> Any research you find on magic relating to this thing might be useful
<DeathStar> *Gnome tosses Jaime and catches her, setting her down*
<Seraphna> **Jaime giggles** Yep, spirit energy is definitely up.
<DeathStar> <Gnome> I do feel better
<DeathStar> *she sits down, resting*
<Seraphna> **Jaime pulls her into her lap and holds her close**
<DeathStar> <Gnome> Hm. Gnome hopes everything goes well. If not. Hold onto this. *she hands something to Jaime*
<Seraphna> **Jaime blinks and takes it** Huh?
<DeathStar> *it seems to be a piece of mud*
<Ari`> <Nicolette> "Well, at least we know one solid weapon to use."
<Seraphna> **Jaime stores it in her mud armor**
<DeathStar> <Selena> Right. I'll look into spirit and magic infused weapons so they are less likely to be destroyed. And protecting all parts of our bodies from it hurting us. Full body armor - nothing less, in the event of a fight.
<DeathStar> <Selena> *studies Nicolette* Make sure not to stay up too late going through these books. *she eyes them all* There's so many and they go back so long. *she studies what Nico has found* I wonder why the spirit spared a few people. Too bad it's so long we are unlucky to find out now
<DeathStar> <Gnome> That will protect you
<DeathStar> *Adeline studies Neekito with her gadgets while people talk, taking samples and musing, the long white haired woman frowning, then moving to sit down and write her notes*
<Seraphna> Jaime> I want to protect you. You’re my darling.
<DeathStar> <Gnome> Aw, thanks
<Seraphna> **Terra approaches Void with a notebook**
<Seraphna> **Jaime wraps around Gnome**
<DeathStar> *Void is sitting there with chunks bitten out of him*
<DeathStar> *meditating*
<Seraphna> **Terra puts a fruit in his lap**
<DeathStar> <Void> YEs, child?
<Seraphna> Terra> What is being a boy spirit like?
<DeathStar> <Void> *opens eyes* What?
<Seraphna> **Terra holds up her notepad** I’m trying to figure out what boys are for.
<Seraphna> **Jaime buries her face in Gnome’s hair trying to hide her amusement**
<Seraphna> **Alita seems to be taking an interest in how Void handles kids**
<DeathStar> *Void begins to launch into his neutral view point, lecturing for the next half hour, talking about the view points of both male and females, pulling no punches about men and women. Adeline slowly hurries over there and picks Terra up and carries her over to Gnome and Jaime, dropping them on their lap*
<Seraphna> **Terra blinks her eyes open**
<Seraphna> Jaime> So if we ever have trouble getting Terra to sleep, just ask Void a question?
<Seraphna> **Alita moves to sit by Void, setting down an empowerment field under him to help with recovery**
<DeathStar> <Adeline> ... uh huh. <Gnome> *opens her eyes* Hm?
<DeathStar> <Void> *nods his thanks and goes back to meditating*
<Seraphna> **Jaime whispers** So Alita has a crush on Void?
<DeathStar> <Adeline> I think Void is so straight laced neutral that getting him to care would be harder than beating this Death Spirit
<Seraphna> Jaime> Dunno, I asked around and he’s never appointed a Priestess before.
<DeathStar> <Adeline> Hm. *Gnome eyes between the two, yawning*
<DeathStar> *Adeline stands up to go back to her work*
* Sara has quit IRC (Quit: Hmm?)
<Seraphna> **Jaime floats her work over to them as she tugs Adeline into a snug with them**
<DeathStar> <Adeline> Needy. very well. *works there*
<Seraphna> Jaime> **grins a bit while Terra updates her notes**
* Sara has joined #TAW-Session557-Minis
<DeathStar> *Sylph and Gnome do a combo attack that takes out a side of abuilding*
<Seraphna> Vendor> My Cabbage warehouse!
<DeathStar> <Sylph> ...! *they flee*
<DeathStar> *Sylph flies Gnome up to Ellie's place*
<DeathStar> *Adeline watches them retreat up into the house*
* Sara has quit IRC (Quit: Hmm?)
<DeathStar> *they peek out occassionally; Salamander just shakes her head, working on fire*
<DeathStar> *Selena charts where Death is going on a map on the wall, frowning, while holding a book up about the two cases in the long past of where it is believed Death might have not killed peopled*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Hm, I wonder if it is possible to go to the locations described in the tomes
<Seraphna> Jaime> It does seem very strange that he's so murderous. Death doesn't equate to violence.
<DeathStar> <Selena> It might be good to check out locations in the past before the attack on the Spirits as well then
<Seraphna> **Jaime nods** Even if there's no help for it, I'd like to know for sure if we have to put down any spirit.
<DeathStar> <Selena> *has the locations written down - due to it being vague written word, one has to really think hard on the locations, but it seems the attacks probably occurred in the main land around here up to the Legion area and especially in the spiritialist territory when it did happen, but the back off happened in the magi territory*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Before you go investigating you should probably take someone with you
* Xanatos has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 192 seconds)
* Retrieving #TAW-Session557-Minis modes...
* Ari` has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 189 seconds)
<DeathStar> *Selena looks over some names*
Session Close: Wed May 11 00:00:00 2022
Session Start: Wed May 11 00:00:00 2022
<DeathStar> *Selena feeds some horses for trips to go out and investigate the Death lore*
<Seraphna> **Jaime tilts her head** Horses?
<DeathStar> <Selena> What is wrong with horses?
<Seraphna> Jaime> I can teleport.
<DeathStar> *Selena pauses* Ah.
<DeathStar> <Selena> I suppose you plan to take your entire group via teleportation. *she nods*
<Seraphna> Jaime> The Spirits also have much more energy now that the Spirit Realm is cleansed, so warping is available again I think. But yes I can take a group.
<DeathStar> *Selena nods as she gathers a group for Jaime then*
<DeathStar> *Vyvy stands behind Jaime with all her spirit gear*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Hello Little Vyvy.
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> L-Little? *sputter*
<Seraphna> Jaime> You're my sister's granddaughter.
<Seraphna> Jaime> It is a tradition in our family to call our children Little One. My mother calls me similar. **she smiles**
<DeathStar> *Vyvy sniffs, since she is 4'11*
<Seraphna> **Jaime doesn't seem to realize there's a height thing here, considering she has quite a few smaller siblings**
<DeathStar> *Vyvy shrugs* Mom didn't mention anything like that. Hmph
<DeathStar> *Selena loads Jaime with supplies for the quest*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Mmm, perhaps she stopped doing it, but the day Lenneth doesn't follow a Megumi Momma tradition...
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> Godiva is my mom.
<DeathStar> *She reminds*
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> Grandma Lenneth
<Seraphna> Jaime> Yes, that was who I was referring to in the latter. Just surprised Godiva didn't carry it on.
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> Well. *she mumbles* I was gone for a long time. Maybe tradition broke.
<Seraphna> Jaime> Well we have much to catch up on then.
<DeathStar> *Vyvy leans back suspiciously while Selena muses which scientist to send with them*
<Seraphna> **Jaime muses** We'll have to map out what our relationship really is, all things considered.
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> What do you mean? *narrows eyes*
<DeathStar> *Selena stuffs someone into Jaime backpack*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Should I send a magical girl too...?
<Seraphna> Jaime> Well, we're also technically sisters in law, the way the spirits act as siblings.
<DeathStar> *Selena goes along and stuffs one in Jaime's other sack*
* ChadWinters` has joined #TAW-Session557-Minis
<DeathStar> <Selena> Alright let me know what you find out
Session Close: Thu May 12 00:00:00 2022
Session Start: Thu May 12 00:00:00 2022
Session Ident: #TAW-Session557-Minis
<DeathStar> *Selena adjusts her coat with the winter weather*
<DeathStar> *Vyvy sneaks off from Jaime*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Agent Terra, attack.
<Seraphna> **Terra warps and tackles Vyvy**
<DeathStar> *Vyvy makes a noise while Selena ponders* Should I send Lana or Ceilidh with you to help out or would you prefer someone from your ship?
<Seraphna> **Terra carries over Vyvy wrapped in a big mud ball**
<Seraphna> Jaime> Hmm... whichever wants to come I suppose.
<DeathStar> <Selena> I'll find someone to go. *probably order*
* Jackieness has joined #TAW-Session557-Minis
<DeathStar> *Selena moves to see who is available to go on this journey, flipping thruough names*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Let me see.
<DeathStar> *she hands Jaime a name* Here, take this while going to the locations that Death was believed to have been seated over the years in the past
<DeathStar> <Selena> I will summon them
<Seraphna> **Jaime nods, if only people peeking in here would join in or something.**
<DeathStar> *soon a slightly over weight, jittery Peacekeeper male walks up, in his late 40's walks up*
<Seraphna> **Jaime eyes his shirt color**
<DeathStar> <Dr. Hubert> Um, I heard you needed a spirit expert to help check out the spots. *he seems ot be wearing the Peacekeeper uniform - a reddish color*
<DeathStar> <Hubert> Did you . *cleans glasses* Want to start with the places Death killed or the places it might not have first?
<Jackieness> <Lana> *steps in, carrying a crude device* "I think I did it!"
<DeathStar> *Hubert jumps a bit*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Did what?
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ah?"
<Seraphna> Jaime> I think we should start with the not killed first. Just to give you time.
<Jackieness> <Lana> *shake sher head and then holds up the device* "Simon, Id, and I have a prototype Croza spirit trap."
<DeathStar> *Hubert looks confused8
<DeathStar> <Selena> That's great
<DeathStar> <Selena> Jaime is about to look into some places death might have killed or not killed long ago in a tome Nicolette found
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Granted, this prototype is not stable enough to contain a spirit as string as Death for very long... but it can be tested."
<DeathStar> <Selena> It can't hurt to take it. Good luck. *she steps back as Jaime transports them, Vyvy and all, to the Magi tower region*
<DeathStar> *Linnet blinks at them showing up*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh?!"
<DeathStar> <Linnet> H-Hi?
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> *stands up* This brings back memories. *Hubert takes samples*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ummm...we're here for... reasons?"
<DeathStar> <Linnet> Ah, well, *she waves the students out of their way*
<DeathStar> <HuberT> I am not detecting mostly magic in the area
<DeathStar> *minus now
<Jackieness> <Lana> "This is the foremost magi enclave on Geyze."
<DeathStar> <Hubert> There is not that much over all spirit energy that a spirit might give. Just magic right now
<Seraphna> **Jaime peers around** Well, Mana based magic is quite... oppositional to most spirits.
<Seraphna> Jaime> So it sort of makes sense he would not have killed here, it would be a risk.
<DeathStar> *He continues to take samples*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "The Spiritualist monastery would be a better bet, and relatively close to this location."
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> So you think he failed to kill her due to the magic?
<DeathStar> *here
<Seraphna> Jaime> I think he probably avoided the area entirely. Plus the Magi didn't really have spirits around so being here to help a spirit pass is a no go.
<DeathStar> <Hubert> The tome is scarce in it's passage but it says the person ran into a being of darkness with a scythe and when it came toward them, it fled in this place
<DeathStar> <Hubert> So either a magi or a person who worked for them
<DeathStar> *they are taken to the next location, one of the kill locations, which is near the spiritalist temple*
<DeathStar> <Hubert> *begins to take his samples*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "OK, so does it say where in the temple it happened?"
<DeathStar> *eyes the tome* IT says a creature with a scythe attacked a maid in training in the snow and she was found broken into pieces as if her entire being was taken
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...wonder why it attacked her..."
<DeathStar> *Vyvy makes a peace sign*
<Seraphna> **Jaime muses and feels about with spirit senses**
<DeathStar> *Being near the spiritalist temple, one can feel spirit energy even with their summoni not summoning*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Anywya, we need to try to find the spot."
<DeathStar> <Hubert> Being so long ago it might be hard.
<DeathStar> *He strokes his face in thought* If she was out of the temple, it could be anywhere along this path
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Would the spiritualists have any records that might help?"
<DeathStar> *Hubert nods nd walks up the path, leaving the book with Lana*
<DeathStar> *it shows the passages marked of the other attacks and non attacks*
<DeathStar> *as Hubert starts to get close to the temple, he suddenly vanishes into a snow drift*
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> !!
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhh?"
<DeathStar> *Vyvy slowly approaches the snow drift*
<Jackieness> <Lana> *follows slowly after Vyvy*
<DeathStar> *As they near it, it looks a bit red as if bloodied. Vyvy reaches in and pulls out Hubert, who coughs in pain* <Hubert> Oh my thank you
<DeathStar> ,Hubert> I think something pulled me down
<DeathStar> *He eyes his leg being scratched and looking blackish from the scratch*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...ummm..maybe an animal? I mean... if it were Death... I would expect it to be... ahhh...worse?"
<DeathStar> <Hubert> OF course, you are ready Dr. Lana
<DeathStar> *He eyes his leg and winces as he tries to walk*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "We should get you some help."
<Seraphna> **Jaime muses** No animal...
<Seraphna> Jaime> Perhaps Death's presence is creating minor death spirits.
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> That would be frightening
<Seraphna> Jaime> One legend from Earth called such beings Shinigami.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Even more reason to get him some help."
<DeathStar> <Hubert> I'll ask a spirit to take me back
<DeathStar> <Hubert> You two keep working. *He picks one and Sylph appears; looking like she is a copy since she barely acknowledges the group and warps out*
<Jackieness> <Lana> *nod nods* "OK!"
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> *studies the spot* I wonder if the maid got attacked in this spot
<Jackieness> <Lana> "That is what I'm thinking, too."
<DeathStar> *Vyvy goes toward the spot to put the tools in it*
<DeathStar> *Getting closer and closer*
<DeathStar> *leaning in*
<Seraphna> **Jaime peers at her**
<DeathStar> *puts it in and turns around* <Vyvy> Done
<Jackieness> <Lana> *lets out a breath*
<DeathStar> *at that moment a mini Brooke appears* Selena would like you back; there has been an incident
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ah, incident?"
<DeathStar> <Brooke> Dr. Hubert fell over dead upon arriving back
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...it really was worse than it looked..."
<Seraphna> Jaime> Indeed. Vyvy, did you take on any corruption?
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> Nothing touched me
<Seraphna> Jaime> Good.
<DeathStar> *she notes as the snow stirs behind her, as if something is reaching up to grab her*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ah!" *points the trap at the movement and triggers it*
<DeathStar> *it goes off and whatever is in the snow is clearly affected, and retreats*
<Jackieness> <Lana> *eyes the trap* "I think I got enough of its spirit energy that it ran for it."
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> That's good, right? *Sweats*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Well it's a start. Being able to scare it off is better than nothing.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...maybe? Though it means I need to tune the trap design some... if it didn't catch a minor aspect of death, its definitely not going to capture the real thing."
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> Unless it was the real thing
<DeathStar> *she ha ha's a moment*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "I doubt I would have scared it off..."
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> Hm, that is true
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> Lets find out what you found
<DeathStar> *As they use Jaime to return, they find Hubert has decayed into almost nothing*
<DeathStar> *Selena standing over him*
<DeathStar> *it's like his body is turning into something else*
<DeathStar> *the decaying flesh oozing with dark moving sludge*
<DeathStar> *something moves on Lana, almost reacting to it*
<Jackieness> <Lana> *blinks and pulls out the trap*
<DeathStar> <Selena> I suppose we should send the body to be studied
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Th...this is bad news."
<DeathStar> *Selena looks up*
<Jackieness> <Lana> *tweaks the trap to trigger on a timer and sets it down on the floor*
<Jackieness> <Lana> *then steps back*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Lana>
<DeathStar> *She stpes back as the body gets worse, as if something new is forming on it, right as the trap sucks the entire body and the newly formed thing in*
<Jackieness> <Lana> *lets out a sigh*
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> *pats Lana while Selena remains confused*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "I think that it spawns a new mini-Death with each victim."
<DeathStar> <Selena> That is not good. I'll have to inform Lumi and the Alliance then and with that everyone must keep themselves safe
<DeathStar> <Selena> This could prove to be a disaster
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> At least Lana has a sample!
<DeathStar> <Vyvy> Two

<DeathStar> *Selena paces about as the materials on the Death spirit is studied*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Want a tip dear?
<DeathStar> *Selena peers up* What?
<Seraphna> Jaime> Meditation beats pacing.
<DeathStar> <Selena> I just always found I can think better when I'm moving
<Seraphna> **Jaime nods** To each their own. **She crosses her legs and glows green, going spirity as she floats up and meditates**
<DeathStar> <Selena> *raises eyebrow, then lets out a breath* I should return to my castle I suppose.
<Seraphna> **Jaime floats her up too**
<Seraphna> Jaime> Close your eyes and try to relax.
<DeathStar> *Selena makes a noise, peering at Jaime* Do you typically just lift people up without warning and without permission? *she lets out a breath, but complies*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Family, often. **she smiles** Take those emotions and try to gather them in one spot.
<DeathStar> *Selena mmm's in response, but seems to be doing so for now*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Now toss them aside, or into a Fire. Empty your mind of thoughts and relax.
<DeathStar> <Selena> Hm. *that she doesn't seem to do*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Holding on to them I see.
<DeathStar> <Selena> Sorry
<Seraphna> **Jaime smiles and leans in close** Try more, once you discard them you can find clarity.
<DeathStar> <Selena> *humors her for now*
* Ari` has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
<DeathStar> *Selena blinks* Ah, I know what I want to do. *she falls out of Jaime's grasp*
<DeathStar> *And sits up, heading for something*
* Jackieness has joined #TAW-Session557-Minis
<DeathStar> *Selena heads for her carriage and hops in*
<Jackieness> <Lana> *is busy in the lab, connecting the spirit trap to a device that looks like a larger trap*
<DeathStar> *Selena drives the carriage past the lab*
<Jackieness> <Lana> *checks some things and then throws a switch, transferring the sub-Death entity to the larger unit, lights flickering around the lab*
<DeathStar> *something makes a cracking sound for a moment*
<Jackieness> <Lana> *checks the readings*
<DeathStar> *it seems something is there and growing*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "So feeling out more space? Once you hit that mana grid, you'll change your mind real quick." *disconnects the prototype spirit trap*
<DeathStar> *for now thigns quiet down*
<Jackieness> <Lana> *makes some notes* "Alright, that take care of that." *flops into a chair*
<DeathStar> *Selena has returned to her castle to check on something, having left a note she is going into the spirit realm*
<DeathStar> *Selena arrives in her castle where her servants attend to her as she walks to the spirit parts of her castle*
* Sara has joined #TAW-Session557-Minis
<DeathStar> *someone lans over Lana*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh?"
<DeathStar> <Lumi> So what do we have here?
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ah!" *hops up and walks over to the containment unit* "Miss Lumi, meet Sub-Death."
<DeathStar> <Lumi> Sub Death. The thing that killed Dr. Hubert is in there then. *muses*
<DeathStar> <Lumi> And any other person that dies can spawn one of these Sub Deaths
<Jackieness> <Lana> "That is my current hypothesis."
<DeathStar> *Sylph flutters about, lifting giant fruit*
<DeathStar> <Lumi> Alright. *she hands Lana Selena's note* Let me know what she finds
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh?"
<DeathStar> <Lumi> She's examining the spirit realm to see what it's state is
<Jackieness> <Lana> *pushes up her glasses* "Oh, right. Well, we were celebrating it being cleaned out of the fog... buuuut.. I do have some concerns as well."
<DeathStar> <Lumi> What is that?
<Jackieness> <Lana> "The concentrated spirit energy from the old Croza ship blasted out with alot of force. Who knows what the consequences might be. I mean... it could have blasted a dimensional hole that will cause the spirit realm to collapse in on itself over time."
<DeathStar> <Lumi> Well that's not good
<DeathStar> <Lumi> We should have a team do tests on it. And the net
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Granted, that is just a theory... the physics of the Spirit Realm are totally alien."
<DeathStar> *Selena has entered the spirit realm a while back; Celes paces in the throne room*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "But the hypothesis is based upon how easily the Spirit Realm could get entangled with the Net construct, suggesting that its very malleable."
<DeathStar> <Lumi> I'll ask Asarar's group to run Net run tests now that everything is over
<DeathStar> *Sylph floats by with more giant fruits, making it look like giant fruits are flying*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Though the malleability could also suggest that if it collapses, it might just rebuild itself within its new context, though its hard to say what that might look like..."
<DeathStar> *Lumi muses on that and moves to contact Asarar*
<DeathStar> -SHIFT-
<DeathStar> *Asarar moves over to the others*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Lumi wants us to go try that machine
<DeathStar> *Tora looks up from repairing the Net machine*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Is it even safe to go back in there?"
<DeathStar> <Tora> That's the quest I guess
<DeathStar> <Tora> Is it cleansed like the Spirit Realm
<DeathStar> <Tora> Alright, everyone, get ready
<DeathStar> *Tora adjusts her goggles, motioning at Kira* That's the emergency power off button
<Jackieness> <Kira> "So you hit that and it closes, no delay?"
<DeathStar> <Tora> Yes, after that incident last time
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Good."
<DeathStar> <Tora> *as they power in, it looks worse than last time. It's bloody red and monsters roam with the blood red fog. Despite the templar ship being destroyed in the real world, it's like all the fog poured into the Net, or maybe it still exists.* <Tora> ... *She leans back* I wonder if the ship still exists in this version of the Net.
<DeathStar> <Tora> And the fog must have doubled
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Maybe it dumped it from the other side."
<DeathStar> *The creatures rush the portal*
<DeathStar> *looking more deranged than ever*
<DeathStar> <Tora> Perhaps, but either way I think we need to get it cleared out of the Net now and that means getting to the ship and clearing the fog out, or those creatures will continue to multiply here. And perhaps causse problems in the real world in time.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Enemeis
<Jackieness> <Kira> *hits the emergency button*
<DeathStar> *it shuts down, with a slight spark. Tora moves in and repairs the damage*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Its even uglier int here than it was before."
<DeathStar> <Asarar> We'd have to sneak in there if we'd want to get to it
<Jackieness> <Kira> "How do we pull that off?"
<DeathStar> <Asara> I'll think of something. Let me plan something in my office. *She frowns in thought, moving to it. Tora glances over* It might take an army
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Hmmmmm..."
<DeathStar> *Bonnie sits at the bar, the familiar mixing drinks*
<DeathStar> *soon creates the Bonnie Drink*
<DeathStar> *it's blue colored*
<Jackieness> <Kira> *walks out* "And what is this?"
<DeathStar> <Bonnie> Try it. I call it the Bon BOn
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Alright." *takes it and gives it a try*
<DeathStar> *it has a nice sweet, almost blue berry taste maybe, but a nice right amount of alcohol that is hidden but the taste*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Barry, get the recipe from Bonnie and add it to the drink menu."
<DeathStar> *Barry nods and works with Bonnie to add it* <Bonnie> Bon Bon will be famous
<DeathStar> -SHIFT-
<DeathStar> *on Geyze, Alliance leaders slowly arrance, as well as a few of the 7 heroes. Linnet arrives then Celes*
<DeathStar> *the hero of wind slinks in, trying to look like the werebeast is doign something in he background*
<DeathStar> *Lumi watches them go by while standing by Lana*
<Jackieness> <Lana> *adjusts her glasses*
<DeathStar> <Lumi> Hm. If you were a spy I'd have you do something for me
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh?"
<DeathStar> <Lumi> The reports I read stated Ellie's family is the heroic line - so how is werebeast the hero currently
<DeathStar> <Lumi> But I doubt we'll find out that answer easily without someone looking into it
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Oh...Yeah, I'm not a spy."
<DeathStar> <Lumi> You could take lessons
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh? I wouldn't be very good..."
<DeathStar> <Lumi> Fair enough
<Jackieness> <Lana> I mean... I have red hair and big boobs. I stand out too much."
<DeathStar> <Lumi> I'll keep an eye on them. *she eyes her small size*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Also I have poor coordination and low stamina."
<DeathStar> <Lumi> Just keep up what you're doing for now. I noticed Gwen wondering about in the yard, aybe I can get him to do it
<Jackieness> <Lana> *just stares at Lumi*
<DeathStar> *Lumi wanders off in thought*
<DeathStar> *Gwen is laying about in the academy yard with the snow, waiting on spring*
<DeathStar> *is soon a snowman*
<DeathStar> <Lumi> Perfect spy. *nods*
