Fire Emblem: New Adventures in Elibe

OOC: Ephidel works good for a cloak ^^;;

BIC: Ayrix suddenly became uneasy, thinking of the people who were after him. I wonder if they're close, if they could possibly know where I am right now? If they do, they will not be reluctant to kill my friends to get to me...I am a liability, but I daren't tell them anything...they have an important mission, and I must help them. Ayrix still wasn't fully convinced that he wasn't going to be the death of all of them...he shuddered at the thought.
 
OOC: Don't worry, I noticed hehe...
Tear began to walk out of the house, when he passed by Reane, who was holding the door.
"Oh, thank you Reane! That's very kind of you! I was--Reane?"
He noticed, underneath her hood, that she was in a very solemn state. Eyes closed, blank expression.
"Is there something you want to talk about Reane?"
He said, in a caring tone. He noticed that Reane had been acting like this a lot lately, ever since he bore her out from the battle that seemed so long ago.
"Are you okay?"
 
Reane opened her eyes at the sound of Tear's voice.
"Huh?... Oh, nothing Tear. Nothing." She said in a expressionless tone that matched her face.
"Let's go."
 
Tear watched helplessly as Reane exited the room, her dark hood covering her expressionless face from all the light that tried to reach her.
I hope she's okay.....He thought to himself, worried.
He motioned for Ayrix, and exited the room after her.
 
Reane swiftly walked through the hallways, ignoring all light, focused on only two things: One, her brother, and two......
What is the other thing? Something is... Bothering me....
She thought as she slung the strap of her quiver across her shoulder.
 
Ayrix dashed out of the room, following Lord Tear's command. Apparently that wasn't lords' business...something must be really wrong with Reane, she seems so miserable lately...

Ayrix considered asking Lord Tear what was wrong, because he didn't feel right asking Reane for some reason. Lord Tear would probably tell him something; after all, all Ayrix wanted to do was help...
 
Tear and Ayrix, following Reane, left the castle and approached the gate.
Tear was still deeply troubled for Reane, when he walked up to the gate and began speaking.
"Well, everyone. Here is where our adventure truly starts. The enemies we face will be tougher, the storms that will pass, harsher. Everything from this point on will be a greater challenge then anything any of us have faced before. That is why we must stay together. Recieve strength from your friends around you. As a group, our fellowship will break through the dangers of any course.
And now, we set off!"
He turned at the opening gate, sighed, and began walking into the plains.
 
Reane nodded quickly, then followed him, eyes often straying to the blue skies above, thinking as she went along.

OOC:ARGH! RPer's block again! Nooo....
 
"Now where are we headed again?" Ayrix asked in a half-laughing, half-sighing sort of way. He was flipping through the pages of his Nosferatu tome, translating the runes then attempting to memorize the instructions and activation phrase. He held his hand out in a cupped position, and a single purple blob, which looked like a translucent leech, appeared and disappeared at will.

"This ought to work out alright..." Ayrix muttered to himself...
 
Reane lightly shrugged, and then, dreamily, yet sadly, looked off into the sky again, searching its never-ending fields of clouds.
Her lavender eyes held regret, wonder, excitement... And anger.... All at once. All those emotions. All at once.

Trying her best not to break into sobs, or do anything rash.... She bit her lip and kept silent.


OOC: oO;
I know it sounds rather..... Weird.... (And anger? I'm not sure if she WAS feeling that, but the opening song.... *Sigh*) But I was listening to the opening theme, and it got me sort of... You know. XD
 
Ayrix took one last look at the castle as it disappeared into the distance. Its tall spires and grand arches still seemed to dominate over all Ostia even from such a far distance. He was in with a small party and headed for who-knows-where, but it was a good feeling to be on the move again. He continued to practice with his Nosferatu tome, creating individual balls of purple light, moving them, then making them disappear. He hummed to an old, cheerful Etrurian ditty as he went along, the fear of what lay ahead not in his mind for once. He waved his arm, creating more small purple ghost-like things in the air, and formed them into a ring which rotated around him. He let control of the things go, allowing them to spin around him on his own, but to his great shock he noticed that the circle around him had become more like an ellipse, pointing to a direction in the distance. No one had noticed him practicing, or at least had not cared to watch for now, but he spoke, just loud enough to where the whole party could hear, ?Something?s amiss.?

They looked at Ayrix, puzzled, then Ayrix began again. ?There?s another magic user somewhere in this vicinity...do you see the Nosferatu spell around me? It shouldn?t be pointing like this...it?s being drawn to someone else?s magic power. I have a bad feeling we?re being watched...?
 
Reane nodded slowly, and took ou her new Long Bow, along with a arrow.
"Should we go see who?" The girl asked, eying Ayrix attentively, while readying her bow.
 
The man from my dream....Tear thought, as he watched the ellipse- shaped Nosferatu encompass Ayrix.
He glanced around to find his companions tense, holding out their weapons in front of them.
"Wait," he said, turning his icy stare in the direction of the spell.
"Not all of us should go. If whatever we meet out there is a foe, as a group, we would all be caught unaware."
He strode forward from the company as he said this, gripping the shafts of his swords tightly as he began to pull them out.
".......I can go and check...."

OOC: Oh blah, I have a bad case of RPing block. I need a good night's sleep hehe...
 
Ayrix felt drawn to the source of the magic pull. His Nosferatu was pointing like a compass arrow to whoever was in the distance... "They're in the trees..." Ayrix whispered.

"Don't follow me...if any of you were to combat a magician you'd probably end up dead in ten seconds. I'm not the most powerful Druid, but I can take a whole lot more magic and survive." He remembered the night he had been struck by Excalibur and had somehow lived to tell the tale...it is rare that the Excalibur tome is ever used, but even rarer for someone to survive. He knew he had an amazing resistance to magic, and also knew why, but he could never tell anyone.

Ayrix became smaller and smaller in the distance. It was almost dark outside, and the party was a league out of the gates of City Ostia on the border of the wilderness. Ayrix stepped ever closer, his Nosferatu lighting his way with an eerie purple glow on the ground.

Yes, closer, you have nothing to fear... A voice appeared inside Ayrix?s mind. Ayrix jumped, his Nosferatu breaking down into smaller bits and flying off.

?Who?s there? How have you broken into my mind?? Ayrix shouted. He gripped his head and tried to look around, but he was enveloped in darkness. He had not realized how far he had wandered into the forest.

?I said, WHO?S THERE??

Closer, now, closer... Against his will, Ayrix found himself moving closer to the source of the magic aura, and while mindlessly following the direction, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head and saw a bright light above him. He was unable to move.

I want you to kill your friends, then come back here. Do as I say, Ayrix Ayrischon of Etruria. The Count Reglay has ordered their death and your return and submission... The light came from a staff a few feet above him, and he saw the silhouette of a person in a formal sage outfit in front of him. He couldn?t move, but when the man above him waved his staff he felt all control go out of his body. He got up, ran out of the forest, and saw his friends in the distance...a sudden urge to kill them came over him, and he activated his Fenrir, clutching two purple flames in his hands...he walked closer. He felt his face contorting and his body twitching as he stepped closer to them.

Kill them... The voice whispered to him. He couldn?t resist.

?No...? Ayrix thought. He was standing a few feet from them, their faces, which were lit up by the light of Fenrir, were in terrible fear. Tear had his sword drawn, Reane had her bow ready and aimed at Ayrix.

?I won?t kill them...? Ayrix thought. Oh, but you must!

?No, I refuse to...? Ayrix searched his mind for some way to control his body. He summoned all of his magical power at the last moment has he felt his arms raise to release the spell.

He heard someone from the group say ?Please don?t make me do this, Ayrix...? He felt his fingers begin to open. He concentrated all his magical power to his fingers to stop it.

How dare you resist me? The voice hissed. Ayrix then tried to move his hands, and by making them move a slight bit on his own he then felt a small amount of control rush forth over his whole body. He tried to speak.

?Don?t...shoot...under...sage?s...control...flee...? And before the sage could exert control over his body again, Ayrix shot the Fenrir flames at himself, causing him to fall to the ground unconscious.
 
As she heard those words, she was filled with a deep anger and hatred or the other person, the sage.

"No!!" Reane's voice rang out, as she stood paralyzed, unbelieving, and wide mouthed as she saw Ayrix slump to the floor. Not knowing what to do she stared, unable to move.

Tear watched helplessly in horror, as Ayrix fell to his knees from the intensity of his own attack.

He did it..... for us.... He thought to himself, his mind racing in a blur of sorrow, sympathy, and regret.

Soon enough though, his thoughts were revolving around one thing.......

Revenge..

He raced off, away from his companions, into the field that was ahead of him.
"Fight me you coward!!" He yelled, his voice echoing throughout the grassland. He raised his sword up, ready to face any foe that meet him face to face.
 
"Ayrix!!!! No.... how??? Grrrr....You Coward! Show yourself I'LL KILL YOU!"
Drago said with lots of anger.
"How did this happen? Was it a magic seal? Magic seals can stop magic... But I never knew they can reflect back... But... This isn't... Fair......Grrr..."

Drago Lifted Ayrix and Put him in a tent where he could rest.
Drago then went out and got a torch.
"I'll help you Tear! This time we go together!"
Drago Lifted his sword and ran to the nearest enemy and With a lot of anger he slashed and slashed.
 
"I'll help you both!" Reane cried as she was brought back to her senses.
Racing towards the two, she stopped.
And waited.
"Show yourself!"
 
Ayrix was somewhere between consciousness and unconsciousness as he saw his friends run off into the woods to battle whatever it was that had taken control of him. He was too weak to move, to speak, to do anything but watch as they ran to their deaths...

Unless...

Ayrix suddenly had an idea, but if it didn't work, he doubted anything would. If this didn't kill him, it would make him strong enough to save his friends. He tried to put his lips together, struggling to make any noise at all. After a few moments, he was finally able to mouth a few words, and began chanting under his breath. Almost instantly, the nosferatu spell appeared around him, and it flew through the grass and sunk into Ayrix. He was able to speak somewhat louder. This time, larger nosferatu spells flew out around him and went into more areas of surrounding grass, flying back into Ayrix after a few seconds. He looked around by the feeble light of his spell to see that the grass for fifty feet around him was brown and dead. He was sucking the life out of the plants around him, and it was succeeding.

Please, just let me get there in time... Ayrix thought, continuing to take the lives of the plants around him as his own...a few more times and he could probably get to his feet, but it might be too late...
