Checkered Promethius

[Icaelus]

Fayn wobbled stubbornly on her feet as both Galvi and Reaver walked up to her, Galvi holding out the golden orb. Together they tried to reason with her, and even her befuddled mind could see the logic, warped as it was. Eat the orb and you'll be fine..
She took the orb in both her hands, her expression collapsing into sadness.
"I'm sorry..I tried to hold out..I thought I would strong enough..but it still came down to this.."
Fayn muttered, looking as she was on the verge of tears.
She looked at the orb, glowing in her hands. Essence of dead people. This was the last one, she knew. Civen was on her feet, wasn't she?
"I'm sorry.."
The apology was in no one in particular but to her morals. Morality was something that she would have clung onto..
She raised the orb to her mouth and closed her eyes, trying to eat it as quickly as possible.
Warmth flowed through her as she consumed the orb and she felt strength return to her body.
All at the loss of her human morals.
Fayn swallowed back the tears and the orb together. She would not cry. This had to be done..

[Taria]

Fayn's senses begin to clear up at the consumption of the orb. Ameilee seems to have passed out and the tall walls of the kingdom stand defiantly in front of them, barring their much wanted entry. Nightfall is rapidly approaching.

[Reaver]

Reaver stares at the tall walls before looking back at the group "Yeah.... I can't fly. So how are we going to do this? Ameilee?"

[Taria]

Reaver notices Ameilee's unconcious state... Seems she did not have the constitution for rationing and the last orb has just been given away.

[jayjaycaps]

Jason turns to Reaver, still carrying Ameliee on his shoulder. Although he didn't like Reaver all that much, he would have to just bear down and work with the guy.

"You know a way in? Looks shut up tight to me."

[Reaver]

Reaver looks at Jason still not trusting him "Well we could just ask nicely but with your ugly face they would know we are Nebulos soo. we can use maybe the sewer system if you guys are up to it."

[jayjaycaps]

"I am made in the image of Gods. We all are." Jason didn't like preaching his religion, but he knew how much it annoyed Reaver. Plus too, couldn't let that insult slide...

[Taria]

Reaver spots a conspicuous drainage pipe steadily leaking smelly liquids

[Icaelus]

Fayn took a deep breath, trying to forget what she had just done. Deep down she hoped it would be the last orb she ever ate, but common sense begged to differ..
She walked up to stand alongside Reaver and Jason, staring up at the towering walls. No way they would be able to scale those..
"Sewer system? Let's hope no one ate anything bad tonight, then.."
Fayn grinned, some of her cheerful spirit restored.
"That aside..anyone see a manhole or drainage pipe..something that we could get in through?"

[Reaver]

Reaver grins "Nope nothing else, only way in or out, but Jason should feel right at home in the sewers with it being full of shit like his damn gods. Now hold your breath everyone and hope no one had a big dinner." He puts his helmet on before taking point and walking into the sewers with one axe drawn.

[jayjaycaps]

Jason let out a low growl at Reaver. I swear to the FUCKING GODS, one more time bitch. One more. Jason followed Reaver into the sewers, still carrying Ameliee. "Wish we could have learn how to get the orbs from the hungry Nebulous... Before, you know, Reaver fuckin' KILLED the guy..."

[Reaver]

Reaver chuckles at Jason losing control "He did tell us dumbshit, we have to kill people." He loudly licks his lips "Man i'm hungry again maybe i'll kill you, Jason and eat your orb."

[jayjaycaps]

"I couldn't lose in combat to a blasphemer like yourself, Reaver. The Gods would strike you down before my sword did." Jason couldn't grab his weapon because of Ameliee on his shoulders, so he silently cursed himself at the predicament he was in. He couldn't leave her on the dirty, nasty sewer floor, but he couldn't fight Reaver with one hand either...

[Reaver]

Reaver laughs out loud "Your bitch ass gods wouldn't be able to hurt me and neither could you. And right now I could cut you down and you wouldn't be able to defend yourself but i wont because you arn't worth my time." As they move in even further he has to start squinting to see whats in front of him.

[jayjaycaps]

"You had better watch that mouth of yours, Reaver. Before I shut it up for you." Jason continues down the tunnel, ignoring the smell as best he can.

[Reaver]

Reaver snorts at the smell and the comment "Whew man this stinks, Jason how do you live down here?" He chuckles and starts dragging his axes against the walls so he can get a feel for the space since its getting to dark to see down there.

[Icaelus]

Fayn shot a glare back at the squabbling two, her crimson eyes glowing fiercely in the dark.
"Could you guys stop quarreling like teenage girls and get moving?"
She growled, shaking her head with an annoyed sigh. Men.
The sewer was worse than she had imagined. Well, at least the smell was. If it hadn't smelled so bad she would've actually considered using this as a frequent shortcut. A rat scuttled along the path with totally no fear of huma- no, they were just Nebulos now. Rats probably had nothing to do with them.
Fayn continued along the sewer, anxious to find a way up and out of this horrible stinkhole.

[napsii]

Civen trudged through the sewers, hanging off near where Fayn was.

Gross.

This was not at all like the valley side back home.

Not one bit.

Now that her energy was back and she was walking by herself it was easy to complain about why their surroundings sucked so much. The warrior girl didn't have much experience with the smelliness of sewers. Here, the stench was so offensive it was marring her attempts at replacing the glum, damp tunnel with acres upon acres of wine grapes. The quarreling between Jason and Reaver, certainly, wasn't helping anything along. She could only bear to look at so many parts of the disgusting sewer before wanting to hurl and so she left it up to the others to observe the rest, but they seemed far more interested in fighting for no reason rather than...well, not dying.

"When I get back home, I'm going to have a whole bottle of Salubria Boisson Ange." she commented to raise her own spirits, the accent of her native Salubrian becoming more apparent there for a sec. "Salubrian Angel Drink" the words translated to roughly. Her family's most famed brand of wine, known from judge, to nobleman, to wealthy banker to even monarch alike. If they had the dosh.

[Reaver]

Reaver looks back at Civen grinning "man that stuff is good but you gotta try the Reach's specialty le Sangheili. That stuff will make you swim."

[Taria]

Tiny rays of light shine down from the ceiling up ahead, likely some way out. Ameilee begins to stir awake.
