Alias lay silent on the bed, she felt at peace for once in her time at Nondra. She slowly began to open her eyes, realizing her fate was to be announced by both Ellamiel and Amumir, how she feared them both now.
"Where, where am I?" Alias questioned as she looked around the room, "Is this my room?" she asked as she surveyed her surroundings.
Alias looked over to her right and saw Ellamiel, glancing at her. Alias lowered her head instantly, she could not face anyone let alone Ellamiel from after what she had done.
"I'm sorry," she whispered, knowing it would be rather hard to gain forgiveness.

Arianna still gazing at the wall when a strong breeze came through gainning her attention. Looking up just in time This was the moment they were all waiting for. What a surprise it was to hear of what was to become. She was excited to learn that Sif would be her trainner. What a neat experience this would be Sif was such a great roll model, ever so strong, powerful, and mysterious.

Kithe nodded. "I've had him ever since he was first laid, as an egg. Or soon after, anyways. I hatched him, so he's very special to me. My father helped me train him so that he could be my eyes, and to help me if I need it."

Aquila grinned, "Rosepetal came to me after my... parents.... died. She cared for me, and taught me to fly, and about herbs. I am very glad that she was allowed to come and visit me, I missed her dearly."
Aquila turned away for a moment and watched as the four elemental guardians entered the room. She smiled at Rhé, sending silent thanks for watching Rosepetal.

Ellamiel had been gazing out of the window as Alias woke up. After Alias' apology she turned her head back to look out the window yet again, with her dreaming dark blue eyes.
"You don't have to be sorry for anything, I... it is me who should apologize." she said with sadness in her voice.
Ellamiel's head turned back to look at Alias who seemed to be ashamed for what had happened.
"I am sorry for everything, for not realizing Mandora was so close, sorry for letting her even come near you, sorry for not helping you when I still could, sorry for letting her hurt you..." she said and stopped as she realized she was talking too fast without considering what she was about to speak out loud.
"I love you all so much, I would never wish for something like that to happen to you, I truly hope you know that." she added quickly and looked down at the bed sheets.
"I can't promise you that all will be good yet, Mandora will still have her powers and try to hit the weak before it's too late for her as the new emperors and empresses are crowned and advisors given their positions, that is when she will be banished from this universe along with all of her evil minions."

Lydia smiled as the elementals entered the hall. They had taken smaller shapes though they were still bigger than most in the room. Lydia compared them to Phalan, they all seemed to be in the equal size as him. She rose up from her chair and walked up to Mar and curtseyed.
"Hello, my name is Lydia, I have been summoned here to be the empress of Iséril, pleased to finally meet you." she said.
As Mar turned around a couple of birds flew of the branches on his body and some dry moss and dirt fell on the floor. He bowed deeply and spoke to Lydia with a deep and manly voice that made she furniture vibrate a bit in the hall.
"Good day your highness, it is a pleasure to finally meet you too."

The dragon sat in silence for a moment, conteplating the words of the goddess. Then something occured to him. Though Ellamiel was no longer present he spoke his mind, "Well then fellow rulers, it seems we all have new jobs. But what now? Few of us have any standing armies, and while our palaces are being rebuilt, there are still those who would oppose the will of the gods, and therefore will oppose our rule as well. Even though the resistance we crushed, there is still magic in this world powerful enough to defy the gods themselves. My question is, with our new titles, and servents, what are we to do now? In Elil there are many tribes of other beings that attack my clansmen daily. We dragons live as warriors and hunters, killing lest we be killed. If we were to destroy the evils that haunt us now, another greater evil will arise. Think about it, darkness dared to come even here, to this sacred isle of Nondra, the heart of the power of the gods. Alias is now a testement to such evil power. If there are forces of that strength, how can we hope to stand against them?"
Mon Sep 13, 2004 6:04 pm
Meiou stood up and looked to Phalan with quite a serious look upon his face. "Lord there is always hope. Even if its jus a tiny bit it can find a way to destroy the mightest of evils. What we need to do is stop this evil at its source. If we can do that we might be able to quell what evil still roams all our lands. "
He then looked to the others "Ive seen this darkness do far worse then what it did to Alias it took my mother from me and made me kill her. This darkness is there because were afraid of whats to come if we dont stop being afraid and rise up and face our fears it will jus become stronger and come after those closest to our hearts and destroy us! Wether you wish to beleive it or not Hope is our best weapon against this encroaching darkness."
(Do not ask me where that came from because im not even sure.)

The words Phalan and Meiou spoke were brought to Fea's immediate attention.
"Have patience my lord, now is not the time to think about these things. Though I can tell you that a country with a righteous leader will never face the problems of evil forces. The heavens give their blessings to only those who rule their country with their heart and wise mind, not those who are blinded by their own needs. The former leaders were weak at the end and thus let the countries survive on their own and evil powers to rise."
You could see bright orange lava flowing in Fea's veins and smoke emerging from his nostrils as he spoke to both Phalan and Meiou and the rest of the crowd as well. He knew more than well that they worried about many things, but wanted to make them understand how much their way of ruling affected this entire world and how a good ruler never had the need of an army or any of the kind.

"Well said Servent of Flames," Phalan replied, "I suppose I will have to trust you. But what of the evil that we have seen here? Will the gods destroy this darkness, this fear? Or will it too be warded off by our rightousness?"
(What I'm wondering (want Phalan's wondering too) is what do we do? I mean, this is way to easy. We came here, we're emperors, empresses and advisors now, and it sounds like everything from here is tea cakes and a walk in the park. Is there a conflict coming? Does something terrible happen next? Is there a real villian at all?)

((Well, Mandora's still in the game so I might pop her into it all.
As for now I'd like you all just to follow the story line. Though something that might interest you is that I thought characters could choose to explore Nondra. That gives us numerous new aspects to it all, who knows what you might find in the dark caves of Tintook *hint hint hint*
Ideas are more than welcome
I'm just saying that even though I'm in charge of this RP I really want that you all participate in making turns to the story. Ammer has done a great job with that just to mention it.))
Fea looked blankly ahead as memories of the dark times where brought up to the surface of his mind.
"The evil you saw today were the remains of the evil created a long time ago. Though the bodies of the rebels are lost their mind was full of hate and rage. It all gave them more powers than expected and they were able to stay here, and they are poisoning everything around still today. I am afraid I do not know what will happen with them though. The legend has it that the powers will be destroyed completely as the new emperors are crowned officially, but Mandora has gathered up strength for so many years that it makes me doubt that she will wait much longer to make her final try to put an end to this world. Still if you are indeed the true leaders I do not fear that we will meet our end."

(Sorry, just trying to move the plot along. Hints at times would be nice.)
Phalan nodded thoughtfully. He rose and flexed his wings, "Well, seeing as how the goddess no longer needs us, I think I'm going to go for a walk, c'mon Meiou. Rosa, Lydia, would you like to join us?"
(Are Kithe and Aquila in the room with us?)

(you ruined my wonderful speach that i came up with out of nowhere silja. You jus killed it with one post. 
)
He sighed and looked to Phalan as he spoke to him. "I wouldnt mind but im not sure about Rosa or the others." He jus didnt understand why Fea had shot him down like that surely he knew he was right about the whole matter after all Mandora was quite abit stronger then he last remembered feeling her power. Mandora how he wanted to finally meet her face to face and put an end to things but he knew that even his swords werent likely to put an end to the true evil within her.

[OOC: Thanks for the compliment Silja. Do we simply wait until we're allowed to explore and than make a twist or so in the story?]

"How will she be banished? If she is strong enough to enter Nondra once than she can do it again," Alias realized she had completely bypassed Ellamiel's apology and continued to speak, "...And you don't have to be sorry. I was the weak individual here in Nondra. I need to fight Mandora's power, however I highly doubt she'll attack me again seeing she's failed three times now," Alias halted to a stop.
She lifted herself up into a sitting position, on the soft, warm bed.
"The others. She can still attack. Ellamiel, we need to protect the others," Alias turned to face Ellamiel who seemed to be seduced by the beautiful bed sheets, "Ellamiel, we need to. Or they'll die," Alias said as she threw the velvet covers off her and carefully placed her feet on the hardwood floor.
She looked at Ellamiel and ran out of the room.
'What happens if someone else is abducted by her evil powers? I cannot let this happen,' Alias thought as she ran down the marble staircase, running her hand along the green emerald covering the railings.
She ran into the Grand Hall, surveying who was still in the room, "Everyone, we need to be on alert. Mandora may still be lurking around Nondra. Be on your guard,"

There was so much to learn and a long way to go before they could learn all that the elementals could teach them. Arianna thought it would be nice if she could get together with her advisor Hylian - they could work together. Looking around she could not see Hylian anywhere. Suddenly Arianna felt alone as she did not get the opportunity to really meet any of the others.

((Yes, Aquila and Kithe are still in the room))
Aquila shook her head, "Thanks for the offer Phalan, however I'll have to decline. I'd rather stay here. If you get into any trouble just call, Rosepetal might be able to hear you."
Turning around, Aquila watched Alias enter the room. Smiling, she let Rosepetal fly out through the hole in the roof and walked over to Alias. "I'm glad to see you're well again Alias. And I'm sure that we'd be able to defend ourselves if Mandora tries anything again, which I highly doubt she will."
