Balish Enter

(2) calamitousClotho: ok.

(2) calamitousClotho: So Balish, you've decided to take a walk outside your Hive. Any particular destination, or just meandering?

(6) Balish Aggaro: Just along the coast, listening to the shore meet the sea. Balish of course brough his husk top, in case of a computer related emergency.

(2) calamitousClotho: The sky is nice and dark, just as you prefer.

(2) calamitousClotho: Baelish, you have your game discs. Do you want to enter now?

(6) Balish Aggaro: Things have been moving faster than you want them too. Balish's plans are now almost in place. Now is as good of a time as any.

(2) calamitousClotho: all right.

(2) calamitousClotho: Are you going to drum up your server?

(6) Balish Aggaro: Taking a deep breath, Balish sits on a cold stone and opens his Husktop. He scans his chump list, full of unfamiliar names. He hovers over aibohphillicGapeseed for a second, then sighs and moves on. His cursor stops, unfortunatly, on The Heiress.

(6) Balish Aggaro: -- conciseTactician is now trolling aestheticChintin--

(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: GREETINGS, Highness. I have a favor I MUST ask of you.

(7) Maenam: AC: lolol heeeeeeeeey Bally

(7) Maenam: AC whatts up ???

(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish can feel the headache growing in power.

(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: I ASSUME you receieved a copy of Sgrub recently? Would you do me the HONOR of playing the part of my SERVER?

(7) Maenam: AC: omq omq omq

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: of coooourse Bally !!!!

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: Glad to hear you are ENTHUSIASTIC, at least. Boot up the sever, and I will CONNECT.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: lolol uhhhhhh okay

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: Maenam looks carefully between the two discs she has, trying to determine which is the server

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: lol whic is the serrver one ??

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish's normal scowl deepens even furthur. It seems he has forgotten the Client disk back in his hive. With a deep sigh, he hauls himself up and returns, trying to type and walk.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Balish, your hive is quiet.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Almost... too quiet.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: The one that SAYS Sever...

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: oooohhhhhhhhhh !!!

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: Maenam reads the disks and picks out the server, sliding it into her computer with an eager giggle

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: okay Bally its installlinq

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish blinks, then strains his hearing. Shouldn't there at least be the periodic tick of that stupid time peice Erndad was so found of?

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: No, it's probably nothing. No reason to be paranoid in his own hive.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: I will connect as soon as POSSIBLE.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish closes his hucktop with a sigh, and ascends

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: You ascend the stairs of your tower, your steps echoing off the old stone. The only light is the alternian moon shining in the windows every few stories.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: The usually soothing light does nothing for his aching head, but he pushes the annoyance aside, and continues.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: You push your way into the hive proper, overlooking the beach. The waves are washing away the tiny dots of your footprints.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish doesn't waste time, and sets his Husktop beside a small journal and a large tome. He hasn't gotten to write in either of those tonigh, but it will have to wait, matters are at hand. The client disk is right where he left it, and he picks it up without a second thought.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: are you opening/powering on the husktop

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: The clinet is LOADING. Are you POSITIVE everything is fine on your end?

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: lolol of COOOOOURSE Bally

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: As you attempt to install SGrub on the LeapGrub Jr. A wiggly grub appears, with a speech bubble. It says, "This game requires a grown-up! Have your Lusus press their Paw/Claw/Wing/Fin/Tooth to the track pad!"

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: Maenam obliviously downloads the program from her mystery pesterer. There is absolutely no way this is a trick and can end poorly.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish rolls his eyes, then glances around. Unwelcome eyes probably upon him, he angrily reaches under a large pile of sticks and pulls out a feather.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Maenam are you running the program?

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: ((the sparkle program or the server program?))

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: sparkle

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: Maenam immediately runs the sparkle program because sparkles.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish tries to apply the feather, hoping it works as a worthy substitute for Erndad.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Maenam, when you run it, it brings up a window, asking you to select your blood color and horn style. It says these are to customize the smileys. Do you?

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: Maenam blinks at the screen with the window, before selecting her blood color and horn-style with a goofy grin on her face.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: It shows a list of smileys and commands, and a button that says "Sparkle On" and "Sparkle Off"

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Balish, roll computer.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: [4df] => [0,1,1,1] = (3)

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Balish, the feather works, and SGrub finishes installing. If you can deal with the FUCKING ADORABLE GRUB ASSISTANT, you can use this computer. But he doesn't like foul language.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: Maenam immediately activates the SPARKLE ON option

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish rolls his eyes. He knows he shouldn't curse anyways, it is unbefitting one of his stature. Balish finishes loading and begins the connection process.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Your text is now INCREDIBLY SPARKLY

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: PRETTYYYYY

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish knows he cannot question the Heiress. It seems he will simply have to manage, at least until entering, where he will cut off all contact.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: FINE, just... Just let me CONNECT, and let's get this UNDERWAY.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Balish, are you going to run the client software

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish runs the client software.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: roll another computer

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: [4df] => [1,0,1,0] = (2)

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Balish, you see a pair of white creatures, similar to lusii but appearing to be hornless and hairless. One, with a feminine form, has pink eyes, and the one with a masculine form has blue eyes. They are holding hands.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: A moment later, you are informed that the game is installed, and you are ready to play!

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Maenam, Balish and his hive appear on screen

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Balish, describe yourself and hive

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: wb

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish is a rather taller Purple blood, with outstanding C-shaped curlded horns spinning from his forehead. He is skinnier than most nobles, and not overtly muscular. He is currently wearing a dark shirt adorned with his sign, a cross with a half circle occuring on the horizontal bar taking place of the horizontal crossing point with simple grey pants. His room is circular, with the recupricoon shoved in a clump with a few stocked bookshelves and a large chest. Balish rests against a tall wardrobe, as his desk is now a smoking mess, papers scattered everywhere, as well has several orienteering tools and a knife he forgot to put away. Thankfully, the large tome and journal remained generally unscatched, but more than half of the maps adorning the walls are sorched from the explosion. The now closed and securly locked window overlooking the ocean stands, curtains wide, revealing a breath taking sight.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Balish? You alive?

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: oh oj

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: ((I AM AN ARTIST))

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Maenam, you see all this, along with numerous buttons, and one indicating items you can deploy. Would you like to do that, or continue writing fashion blogs in sparkletext

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: Maenam gasps as she sees her best purple buddy in his room, not quite grasping that its Balish on her screen

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: omq Bally theres some sorrt of purrpledude on my screen

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: That is ME.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: do ???

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: Now, if you are READY to get UNDERWAY, you must deploy three machines, and a paper. Do so, if you WILL.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: lolol okay Bally

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: ohhhh but wait there are

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: like

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: SOOOOOOO many buttons

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: The DEPLOY button, Maenam. FOCUS.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: Maenam looks around at the plethora of controls at her disposal, first taking it upon herself to try and click on Balish with the cursor

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: STOP THAT.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: OMQ OMQ first can I channqe what yur wearinq !?!?

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: Maenam, my husktop just EXPLODED. If you do not focus, I will BURN every article of clothing you have EVER GIVEN me.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish blinks, suprised at his outburst. He is talking to the Heiress, what is he thinking?!?

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: lololol omq soooooo silly Bally

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: okaaaaaay

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: Right, thank you...

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: Maenam hums to herself as she fools around with the Deploy menu, noticing a lot of items with long names.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: uuuuuhhhhhh

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: theres a uuuum

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: cruxtrudle

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish thinks for a moment, then opens his wardrobe and puts on the horribly colored hoodie he just received, hoping to make ammends.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: alchymotor

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: annnnnnnd

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: a totes lathe

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: All of THOSE, if you will.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: yaaaay !!!

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: Maenam first deploys the cruxtruder right in the middle of Balish's room with a loud clunk behind him.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish jumps slightly, then examines the cruxtruder. Just like the one he dropped in Nullar's hive, excellent.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Balish, there is now a tall pillar like object blocking your door. You'll have to climb over it to get out

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: Keep GOING, I have a pile to AMASS. And do TRY to keep everything in here, I will move the furniture if I MUST, as I do not wish to climb over THAT.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish begins to circle his room, finding different peices to throw into the orb thing, like he did with Nullar. The prior experience is really paying off.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: okay Bally next is the uhhhh

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: ackymotor

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT:... YES, that.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: Maenam tosses down the other large machine near the cruxtruder, nearly destroying his recupricoon

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: yaaay !!!

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish visibly flinches at the crash.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Balish, she nearly destroyed your recuperacoon. She *DID* destroy the steps up to get into it.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: Do TRY to be careful, Highness.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: lolol sorry Bally

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Balish, there is no more room in here

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: uuuuummmmm Bally

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: You'll have to have her put the "totes lathe" somewhere else.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: theres no place to put the uhhh

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: totes lathey thing

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: *thinq

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish removes the rest of the mess from the desk, tossing it haphazardly onto the Alchemizer.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: Hold on, I will open the WINDOW, then you can toss the desk out.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: lmao okay

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Balish, where are you putting your LeapGrub Jr?

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish climbs around the machines, pressing up against the wardrobe and finally making it to the window, when he opens the large thing with a turn crank. It's big enough for Erndad to enter, it should be big enough for the desk, and other items if need be, to exit.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: Go AHEAD, I think I removed everything from it...

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: okay !!!

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Where are you putting the LeapGrubJr?

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Holding it? Those things are tiny as what.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: Maenam picks up athe desk and attempts to throw it through width-wase, knocking a hole in the side of Balish's wall.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: Maenam: ooops D:>=

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Ok, just noting your hands are full for my notes.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: REALLY.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: omq omq omq

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: Do you SEE that WINDOW.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: Bally

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: Im sooooooo supes sorry

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: It is LARGE ENOUGH for an enormous LUSUS to fly through.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: And you MISS.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: Fine, just DEPLOY the thing.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: Maenam places the totem lathe quickly where the desk once was

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: there it is !!!

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: While the space is incredibly cramped, everything did end up fitting.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: yaaay !!

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Well Balish?

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: Okay, first thing is FIRST, I am going to pry the lid off this thing, the cruxtruder I BELIEVE. You should do NOTHING ELSE, until I tell you to throw an item into the sphere that WILL APPEAR. Do you UNDERSTAND?

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: lolol sure thinq Bally

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: Oh, yes, and if you would be SO KIND to deploy my CHARACTER SHEET? It is a simple peice of paper, over by the Alchemizer is fine.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: Maenam thumbs around the buttons for a bit before finding the sheet, putting it down next to the Alchemizer

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish moves over to the cruxtruder, and prepairs to pry that sucker off.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: ((Physique I assume?))

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: [4df+1] => [-1,-1,0,1,1] = (0)

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: hahaha

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: not just no but hell no balish

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: ((didn't kate do that? :B))

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Welp, that seemed to not work. Time to use traditional methods.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: Maenam, do me a favor and DROP my wardrobe on this? Once I am clear, of course.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: okay Bally !!!

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish struggles over the machines, getting a safe distance, then raises a thumb once safely behind the Alchemizer.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: Maenam wastes no time picking up the wardrobe with her cursor and slamming it down rather wrecklessly against the machine once Balish is clear

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: roll a computer

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: [4df] => [-1,0,1,-1] = (-1)

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: The wardrobe breaks, clothing tumbling out all over the floor, Balish roll an athletics

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: [4df+3] => [-1,0,-1,0,3] = (1)

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Balish, you manage to not be BURIED under the mountain of clothes.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: How will you get it open now?

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: Hmm... I just dropped THINGS on Nullar's... Maybe we should TRY AGAIN? Use the CHEST, I guess. JUST... Try not to BREAK this one.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: Balllyyyy

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: it didnt work

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: okay !!

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: Maenam quickly repeat the process with the chest.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: [4df] => [-1,-1,0,0] = (-2)

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Maenam, you somehow end up in a grist menu.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: It'll take you a bit to get out of it

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Balish?

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Proceed to get very close to a break down.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: Maenam, REMEMBER what I said.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: ooooops

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: OMQ suuuuure !!!

<p class="MsoNormal">(1) punctualPilferer: [4df+8] => [1,0,-1,1,8] = (9)

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: PP. what are you doing?

<p class="MsoNormal">** (1) punctualPilferer will use the sparklepizzaz program to hijack her interface, guide his cacoon into the side of the cruxtruder and tap the "sweet spot" ever so gently **

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: DO not use my recupricoon! You might.... BREAK IT?

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: lolol silly Bally

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: Im not doinq anyythinq !!!

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: You aren't... Of COURSE you are.

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: lolol noooope

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Balish, your Recuperacoon gently nudges the cruxtruder "just so" and the top spins off, a large violet orb floating out of the top. The clock on the cruxtruder now reads 2:22

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish jumps to action.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: Alright, take the FEATHER first, if you would by so kind, and get that into the ORB.

<p class="MsoNormal">(1) punctualPilferer: PP:GIVING_THE_CONTROLS_TO_YOU_NOW_DOLL_FACE

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish begins to cranck the turn wheel, enjecting the... Thingy. Nullar called it something but honestly you weren't paying attention.

<p class="MsoNormal">(1) punctualPilferer: PP:TELL_BALISH_I_SAID_HI

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: lolol thaaaaaank qreendude !!!

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: I will =:D =:D =:D

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: The cruxtruder extrudes Cruxite

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: Maenam picks up the feather as carefully as possible and begins to try and drag it over to the orb

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish grabs the cruxite, moving over to the Alchemizer and grabbing the character sheet, and moves over to the Totem Lathe.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Since he's leaving it up to you, Maenam, call high or low and roll 1d100

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: High

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: [1d100] => [59] = (59)

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: all right, Erndad it is

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Ernsprite, now

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Balish, roll me a computer, how's that totem coming?

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: [4df] => [1,0,1,1] = (3)

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: good

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: nice

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Your totem is carved, your sprite is prototyped

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: and you have 1:00 to spare

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: And the time?

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: omq Bally yur birddude is sooooo prettyy !!!

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: 1:00

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish slips over to the Alchemize, placing the totem onto the pedestal.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT:I...

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: roll a computer

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: CT: Yes, he is ISN'T he.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: [4df] => [1,0,-1,1] = (1)

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Balish, you manage to make your effigy.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Balish takes a moment to examine his effigy, before sighing. "Best to get it DONE as soon as possible." Balish lifts his foot and brings it down, hard, over the small statue.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: Your effigy is smashed into numerous pieces. Everything fades to white.

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: === Balish Aggaro, Prince of Breath, has entered the Land of Quill and Parchment. ===

<p class="MsoNormal">(1) gearworkTender[GM]: {S} Balish: Enter

<p class="MsoNormal">(7) Maenam: AC: =:O =:O =:O

<p class="MsoNormal">(2) calamitousClotho: You realize your tower is situated on a vast, nigh endless, sand-colored plain. In the sky, there are no stars, no suns, no moons. Just the smooth, self-illuminated land. You can see a forest in the distance, but it appears to be 2 dimensional, and merged with the ground.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Wonderful, another thing to think about. Balish can't help but let a small smirk through though.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Be careful, Theif, the Prince has arrived.

<p class="MsoNormal">(6) Balish Aggaro: Your shit is wrecked.
