CARAVAN IC- the stone forest

[Lady Foxy]

Myu made a childish and very cute, adorable groaning noise as General Samantha hugged both of them, closing her eyes before sneakily wiggling herself out of the General's grasp. She patted her clothes a bit, fixing the soft and somewhat thin pieces of armor so they looked right. Their training had been intense and tiring, sometimes even too dramatic but she had managed to pass just smoothly. Her nimble fingers and gentle agility had gotten her far, besides 'borrowing' gifts from the markets for Jenny. The memories the two shared were special and cute, remembering her 17th birthday and how great that day had been with Jenny setting up the surprise party. Her 'older' sister, she thought within her pure thoughts before waiting for Jenny to tag along and lead them towards the Caravan. Silence filled her lovely and curved, plump lips as she wasn't a person of many words most of the time.

[KnightVanilla]

Filling out the sheet she answered aloud as she wrote it. "Name: Emily Vigil. Age 20. Profession: Rune Merchant and my relevant skill is that I'm handy with a sword." It was an odd habit she had after being alone for so long. Her cloths were very clean for a wayward vagabond. Handing the form to Ivan she asked "When is the caravan supposed to leave?" Not really noticing how rude or blunt she was with her question.

[Hazard1325]

Not at all bothered by her abruptness Ivan replies "Once this crowd finally thins out I imagine, which could be a few hours or a few minutes, some people are so insistent on joining even if they don't meet the basic qualifications." He signs her papers and hands them to her. "I think there are a few other rune vendors over in that direction, do you have any merchandise that needs transportation or will you be providing your own means of transportation? If so you'll need to go register it at that desk over there... oh and another thing." He continues rambling for a bit, cutting through the bureaucracy as fast as he can for her sake.

[KnightVanilla]

Trying to listen to all he had to say she couldn't help, but lose focus of what he was talking about. -Hmm he said a few hours till the caravan would leave. What to do to kill the time.....- She was obviously lost in thought for a while till she brought herself back to reality. "Oh sorry my mind drifted what were you saying?" If at all possible she would like to be away from this big crowd. Paranoid thoughts were starting to get to her. It made her breathing a bit heavier, though not many people would notice.

[berserkerhorn]

1 HOUR (two more posts from me) TILL WE LEAVE!! LAST CHANCE TO SIGN UP AS A MERCHANT! OR ELSE YOU’LL BE A MONSTER UNTIL THE NEXT CITY! *note* those who are already merchants are allowed to be merchants after being killed

“Well… welcome to the Cartography part of the caravan. You better help me update my maps…” He says. It sounds like a threat to you He moves back surprised at your attitude with his beard. “Umm… Miss, What are you doing to my beard?”

“Go out there and have fun kids!” General Samantha says. She pushes you towards the armory. “Equip yourself then head for the North-Eastern Gate… They’ll be heading towards Llucerqua.” She leaves a little box at the entrance of the armory. Inside it contains some gold coins, the badge of honor, and a note.
“Dear Jennifer and Myu,

This may be the last time I see you... I just wanted you to do one more thing for me before I go to fight Xalen the white. Please ensure that we get more people to guard the city. So I need you two to start recruiting fresh blood from that wizard city Llucerqua. We need some wizards instead of some blockheads that use pieces of scrap-metal and fire twigs. If I die during my quest to kill Xalen the White, He will attack our city just like he has during my childhood. Those scars you saw earlier... they were from him. I love both of you...

From,
Samantha”

“What are you talking about? I’ve been deciding since you left last year!” Sharon says. She plops down in his lap. There are only 5 people left in the line. Sharon takes the quill from Ivan’s hand and signs her name down at the bottom. “Well its official… I’m going with the guy that’s going to be wed to me!” She giggles and kisses Ivan right on the lips.

“Hello… Emily!” she says. She waves at you with her hand. “Go over there for other rune merchants like you and over there if you need transportation from someone else.” she says responding to your question

(Well provoking Thae isn’t working so might as well move on. Since i don't have much to post...)
The crowd in the city seems to be thinning out and forms a line. It signals the caravan is going to be heading out in a 60 minutes from their demonic judging.

James:

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

Felicity (who cares if it’s spelled right or not xD) Gags and struggles to pull the cock out of her mouth to breathe This only forces her throat to tighten and her mouth to clamp shut around the long membrane. She moans when James starts licking at her pussy. The moan turns into vibrations that tickle James' cock. James hears a crunch and a yelps of pain when he places his foot on Amy's arm. Amy starts punching your legs trying to get James’ overly large foot off of her now broken arm.

Julia smiles and takes the gem happily. “THANKS MISSY!” She runs behind her mom and hugs her leg. Calvin smiles, “Here take this for giving us the insightful information… Plenty more of them out there... I find them all over the place.” he says. He gives you a small pouch. Inside it contains a rock. GeeGee get's the feeling it has something special inside.

[That_One_Guy]

Garian looked towards the City and smiled before standing up and stretching, "Prepare yourself, Aessith, looks like the Caravan will be coming soon now." He told her, picking up his sword that was still embedded in the ground and sheathed it onto his back once more. He fixed his coat and looked on into the city, they had an hour so he decided to map out their route, looking at the road and along it. "Hopefully this catch will be easy, right, Aessith?" He asked, looking back at her.

[Taria]

GeeGee's face lights up when she hears the tell-tell rumbling of precious stone within the pouch. "Thank you, thank you very much!" She softly announces with gratitude, bowing her head respectfully at the man. Withdrawing back into her own little bubble of privacy, Ginglias fishes into the soft pouch to examine whatever contents are held inside with her scrutinous eyes.

[SugarCookie]

"What? Oh just ignore me, I'm tired, and it's really long... and yush! I shall accompany you with drawing your maps to date and stuff and I'm just going to lay down now thanks"
She said in an autistic sleepy manner, before laying down on the cart.

[napsii]

Jin nodded. She and Zeph had one element in common, at least; Jin herself didn't often stray outside the walls of her town, except for short trips in the company of the Fayers'. She could not be sure about being adventurous, but she knew well enough this trip meant more to her than... well, anything. She opened her mouth to speak, but quickly had the words knocked out of her as a phantom of a moron emerged from the crowd to knock her flat onto her rear. She grunted, her face contorting with bitter pain and a hint of irritation. Quickly, though, she accepted Zeph's hand and rose to her feet, demurely pushing away his batting hands so that they might not stray so close to her figure.

She huffed.

"Watch where you're going!" she snapped hotly at the one who'd walked into her, rolling her eyes away back to Zeph.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. Though that guy won't get far knocking people over like that." she shrugged, trying not to set herself in a bad mood barely an hour before their trip launched.

"Well, anyway," she spoke, immediately having wanted to shift the subject, "I work for a little arcane shop. We sell lots of stuff... potions, scrolls, alchemy ingredients, spell tomes... but my niche is elemental salts. They're extremely rare, and I'm the only one around who knows how to make them." she explained. Elemental salts, indeed were extremely valuable and prized among spellcasters as they came only from two places: the corpses of Elemental Spirits or Iievyr like herself. With Elementals being exceedingly rare nowadays and Iievyr not exactly willing to sell their work, one could understand the hefty price.

Ivan enjoys the kiss for a few moments before breaking off, he clears his throat looking at the few remaining people in line then back to Sharon. "This really isn't very professional right now Sharon. Let me finish these last few and I'll show you around the caravan." He glances at Emily. "You could come as well, I could introduce you both to a few of the more influential people around the site before we leave." Ivan goes back to the few people remaining in line and assigns them roles or sends them home.

[daxtinator396]

James growls as she tried to pull away but his growls quickly change from those of irrtation to that of pleasure as she moans from her friend`s tongue work. He kept thrusting into her his scaly sack smacking into her chin with each thrust. He barely registered the yelp of pain from amy as he accidentally steppend and broke her arm as she punched him he moved his foot away and pulled out of the other girl`s mouth and put Felicity`s and Amy`s good hands oround his cock.

[KnightVanilla]

"Oh sure..." Emily accepts Ivan's proposal of introduction to the others within the Caravan. It was probably better that way considering she isn't all too social with people. Seeing the two kiss right in front of her it is most likely these two were lovers. Waiting for Ivan to finish with the rest of the work she considered what possible things might happen this trip. It has been a long time since she has traveled with anyone, especially now she decided to jump the gun and join a Caravan. In retrospect is really unlike her to do. Curious as to what the man's role within the caravan was she asked "So what are you to the caravan?"

[Zender_Solarheart]

Inside the armory, Jenny wastes no time in getting her secondary equipment; her trusty Luna Katti is already taken care of, as she keeps it on her whenever possible...just in case. Bellona's just about useless without any arrows, though, so she first stocks up on a quiver full of those, making sure to take as many ones with barbed arrowheads as she can find. She then takes a sharpening kit for her katana, as repeated use on a blade always calls for repairs. Finally, she double-checks to make sure her canteen is on her - which it is - then turns her attention to the box that General Samantha left.

Jenny reads the note the General left behind, and can't help but feel her heart a little heavier than before. The way all that's written, it sounds like a will...and knowing what she's heard of Xalen the White, it may end up being something like that. A single tear runs down her left cheek, her lips twitching a little as she tries to bear through the sadness. She softly whispers a wish of good fortune to Samantha: "May luck be with you, Sam...may we all meet again after this..."

If Myu were to look in Jenny's direction, she'd notice the telltale signs of worry on her face. The three of them have been a sort of "terrific trio" among the local guardswomen, and to hear of Samantha's death later would pain her considerably...

[Got sidetracked with school work, so I want to apologize to those waiting on me]

The rage flowed into her, the dying tree no longer pacifying the pole-arm, it's maddening scratches scraping away at her mental barriers. Her temples only burned further, the veins bulging from her fore-head as the tree came swinging down, a near miss. "It's so hard to stick to what you preach when all you want to do is massacre every walking thing, and they give you a reason to no?" she said, her pulse beating happy.

She jumped down into the ground once more, her metal-clad feet sending the mud flying once more as her coat flipped about her form. "Want to take a detour and get back at that man" she asked, her eyes slowly gaining more and more focus as her pupils contracted. She turned around, grabbing the spear in one swift motion, cleaving the tree in half completely as she pulled the weapon free, it's humming filling her mind with a warm hunger for blood. She shook the sap free, cleaning the bladed on either side with the side of Garian's coat, before slinging it once more on it's spot in the back.

Her eyes were hyper aware, the movement of the Caravan blinking in and out of existence, the rage boiling over.

[Hazard1325]

Ivan signs the last form and hands it to a new groom and points him in the direction of the horses. To Emily's question "I'm a knight, though I no longer have a kingdom to serve I travel the lands and help where I am needed, I've been with this caravan for a few years now. Sometimes I'll stay a few days late to help a village with a martial problem and catch up later, or sometimes the caravans attacked and I'm generally on the front line bringing the battle to the enemy." He walks Emily and Sharon through the mess of tents being striped down and packed up for the travel.

"Over here are the common merchants, mostly dealing with mundane but important items. The merchants generally bring along skilled labor as well such as stone masons, carpenters, blacksmiths and the like in case some merchandise needs repair or a wagon breaks down." The group of wagons are all loaded with various mundane items from furniture to weapons. He moves onto a wagon loaded with boxes of scrolls. "This is mostly all academic material and maps on the like. We keep a few cartographers in the caravan to updates maps in various areas or make new copies to sell." He lowers his voice "Usually they just argue about the size of a hill for a few hours..." They walk by the cart Fagsag is lounging in and continue to a few iron wagons. "Some of the more valuable things are kept here, magic items, if their respective owners will part with them, the caravan treasury and a few other things I imagine. Don't get any ideas, there are more then just guards securing that." The next stop is a topped wagon with a little pipe funneling multicolored clouds out of the back. "Alchemy and other magical things I suppose... I have no idea what goes on in that one." Finally they come to the guards wagons which are essentially flat carts with chests lined up that double as seats. "Any guard without a horse sits here unless there's a situation. Sometimes we rotate them out if we're on a long stretch that we don't want to stop in."

"That's most of the important tents... some merchants have their own private wagons and set them up as mobile shops in each town. There are some other smaller groups that deal with taking care of the horses and feeding everyone but I didn't think you two would be interested in that." Ivan turns around and sees the small group that has accumulated. "Oh... well I suppose we should go back to all of our stations... I didn't intend to become a tour guide." The crowd breaks up to go back to their respective sections or to meet their new group leaders.

Logan walks up and sits on a crate next to you. “Well… it’s good to know that there’s an apprentice to replace me in case I die on this trip.” Logan says. He stokes his thick beard and looks at you. “My beard isn’t that long… have you ever looked at a dwarven beard? Those things are longer than their bodies!”

“My master told me to read about Elemental salts once. The book says they come from the rumored elemental spirits. Master said his family hasn’t seen one in generations… I wonder if they’re gone. The book had drawings of some beautiful and majestic humanoid creatures. I wonder if they’ll ever return.” He says with a sad faraway gaze. He takes the book out of his bag and shows you a few pictures of the elementals (There are other elementals but he’s only showing you the last few pages. So don’t be surprised if they look overpowered)

Felicity is unsure what to do with her hands. Amy continues cursing at James. “HEY YOU BIG MORON! YOU BROKE MY ARM YOU BITCH!” she screams furiously. She punches James with her good arm on the crotch. Felicity gasps and backs away towards the wall far away from James, leaving Amy punching James in the membrane.
(I’m beginning to wonder if the membrane is armored too…)

The tree crashes and screams of frightened lumberjacks fill the air as the tree crashes. Garian and Aessith are exposed. The two lumberjacks look at each other "NICE PRANK YOU TWO!" Jim calls out through his his laughter. Steve gets angry and storms over to Aessith. "HEY! WATCH WHERE YOU CHOP YOUR FUCKING TREES! THIS IS OUR TERRITORY!" He then looks at Garian "SOME LOUSY WIMP OF A HUSBAND HUSBAND YOU ARE... LETTING THE GIRL CHOP THE DAMNED TREE FOR YOU!" he says with rage at the tree nearly killing him.

Sharon skips behind Ivan looking at all the wonders of the caravan that Ivan explained in detail. "Ivan! you know so much!" she says. She is obviously being a tease so Ivan would feel proud of himself. She looks at Emily. "Well... what do you think of the caravan? I think it's A-MA-ZING..." She continues to blabber on.
(Ok... Sharon's a little annoying so please don't get agitated)
The leader moves up to you. “Good job with the line. Get ready to move we’re heading out in 30 minutes. Do whatever you want until then.” He says.

[Taria]

Ginglias supposes the geode isn't very useful in it current state, so she takes out some of her polishing and shaping tools and begin gingerly working at the hunk of rock, hoping to crack it apart without fracturing of the gems inside.

[KnightVanilla]

"I don't really have much of an opinion, I've traveled alone for most of my life. So this is.....well different for me." Emily doesn't seem to care what Sharon is saying just voiding anything outside of her interest. Taking a moment to look into her pack to see what runes she had left to use or sell. From what she saw in her bag she was starting was about to run low. Though that can be fixed with one night. It isn't too hard to create a rune depending on the quality of it. Emily decided to stay with Sharon and Ivan for now. They seemed nice enough to stay around, but Sharon could talk a lot. O well that will just have to make up for how Emily talks so little. She grips her staff using it as a walking stick. Not such a good way to treat a family heirloom, but it belonged to her now so like that matters. Examining the cheery girl, Sharon, who was so energetic being around the Ivan. He must be a really good man then if he has this kind of effect on others.

Jin tilted her head back, rather wistfully. Elemental Spirits were creatures like none other. In these increasingly harsh times, they seemed to exist more in fantasy and imagination than across the land. As humanity and the rival species had raged wars across the world, the spiritual essences and habitats of those great creatures began to die and crumble away. Jin herself, though, was no stranger to Elementals (as they were colloquially known). Her parents, being wizened Iievyr, told her of the Elemental Spirits being beasts of great and primal power. Individually, the strongest could take on whole battalions of soldiers and mages, but the Iievyr had respected them more as beating hearts of the world, rather than the war machines that the ignorant feared them as. Her mother had met one, as a child. Today, the Elementals were few and apart, but back in her parents' era the Fire Elementals lived populous on Mount Gruina, an enormous, violent volcano with many high and ashen perches that one found between Noomoahk's Cavern and the Valley of the Winds. Jin hummed.

She clenched her fist, the sudden emotion in her mind noticeable.

"They aren't the only source of Elemental Salts," she decided to mention, perhaps against her better judgment. Iievyr themselves were souls of nature -- elements incarnate, just as the true Elementals were. "Iievyr can also create them, like an alchemist can create potions. It's dif--" she cut herself off rather quickly, "I have heard it's difficult, but possible. Salts are good for anything from enchanting weapons to brewing ale. I once heard a story about a duke who sold his daughter to a rival nation for some Brew of the Four Elements." she mentioned, grinning a bit. That tale was a myth, but Four Elements Brew (as it was called) was valuable indeed. A quartet of Fire Salts, Ice Salts, Wind Salts and Earth Salts were mixed in during the brew process, making it... well, Jin had no idea how it tasted since she thought it a trivial waste of Salts, but as dwarven rumor had it, after a single tankard of it all other ale would seem inferior. This was, naturally, why so many alchemists got requests from liquor connoisseurs for Elemental Salts.

"As for the Elementals, they'll come back eventually." Jin stated, hopping up onto the lip of the wagon and folding her legs, one atop the other. She looked to Zeph. With little cargo to ship, she'd leased out space on this wagon to save money.

[daxtinator396]

James roared as she punches him in the crotch and a jet a flmae burns a spot of black on the ceiling and he pounced on her pushing her onto her stomach and grabbing her broken arm cruelly and with one hand spanked her rump as hard as he could,"Teach you to fight me! You saty!" He roars at the both of them and feeling alittle hurt in his groin but was mostly alright. His cock still stood through it all his rage only fueling his sex drive as he pushed her head to the floor and mounted her roughly.
