FnJen (9:12:43 PM):Hello.
Blastoderm195 (9:12:47 PM): Evenin'
Battousai876 (9:12:58 PM):LETS DO THIS SHIAT
FnJen (9:12:59 PM):Hadn't noticed.
Blastoderm195 (9:13:09 PM): Come on, we need some foreplay conversation first
Battousai876 (9:13:13 PM):...
Blastoderm195 (9:13:14 PM): we just can't jump right in
FnJen (9:13:14 PM):...
Blastoderm195 (9:13:20 PM): like uh
Blastoderm195 (9:13:27 PM): How's your game arch class going?
Battousai876 (9:13:55 PM):hitchin', I haven't been to it in a month, the project is a bitch
Battousai876 (9:14:03 PM):I'd rather skeet javascript and make flashgames
Blastoderm195 (9:14:09 PM): did you send me that tutorial?
Battousai876 (9:14:16 PM):yep
Blastoderm195 (9:14:24 PM): I thought you had to use some flash language to make flash games
Battousai876 (9:14:43 PM):no-the new version of actionscript is essentially c++
Blastoderm195 (9:15:07 PM): I see. So Eva/Debby, are you in college?
FnJen (9:15:12 PM):Nope.
Blastoderm195 (9:15:28 PM): Oh okey
Battousai876 (9:15:33 PM):how's about we forgo the foreplay
Battousai876 (9:16:00 PM):so, the emperor gave us a bunch of quests, seemingly open-ended leik
Blastoderm195 (9:16:01 PM): This is why you have no success with wymen
Battousai876 (9:16:11 PM):a la bioware style
FnJen (9:16:14 PM):No, there's a lot more reasons than that.
Battousai876 (9:16:19 PM):lewl
Blastoderm195 (9:16:26 PM): Well you do realize that...
Blastoderm195 (9:16:33 PM): I haven't developed all of the quests
Battousai876 (9:16:43 PM):this doesn't surprise me
Battousai876 (9:16:48 PM):tell me what you have developed
Blastoderm195 (9:16:54 PM): You expect me to make 6 high quality one shots?
Blastoderm195 (9:17:04 PM): Don't worry, we'll just roll
Battousai876 (9:17:10 PM):"..."
Blastoderm195 (9:17:12 PM): try to make it flow naturally
Blastoderm195 (9:17:32 PM): Well since everyone's all tight lipped about real conversation
Blastoderm195 (9:17:43 PM): it's time for....
Blastoderm195 (9:17:45 PM): ROLL CALL
Battousai876 (9:17:47 PM):Kazuo Nakazawa

FnJen (9:17:58 PM):Nanami Sato.:-*
Blastoderm195 (9:18:16 PM): GAME START
Blastoderm195 (9:18:51 PM): Now, Nanami and Kazou, you have just had a life-changing encounter
with the great Emperor himself

(the latter.)
That shall suffice.
"Well, wasn't expecting that."
A storm has picked up incredibly outside
You're still inside the Lion Temple
"I'm not one for omens or nothin', but this how situation feels like a bad
dream."
"For once, I agree."
"This is bad. We can't do this. I don't understand why it has to be us."
You know that the Emperor's wedding is in the fall, which is precisely
100 days away
Which means you've a 100 days to fufill all your missions.
"We don't exactly have a heck of a lot of time. But with this gold we can
get anywhere! Think of all the...*foams at mouth*"
*imagines harem*
*rolls eyes* "Kazuo, stay focused. We should use the money to hire
mercenaries, and to buy weapons."
"Things that can help us in our mission."
"Any merc with any brains take one look at our gold, rob us in our
sleep, and get the hell out."
(*brains'll)
"Well, you're the one with all the plans. Stop making them."
*start
"Yes, you would be stupid enough to leave our gold where it can be
taken."
"I am making plans. But you're not listening or offering any help!"
Although you didn't want to question the Emperor during his speech,
you realize that his quests for you were rather vague in detail.
":-\"
Not to mention that he basically told you he can't bail you out lest you
get into real trouble
"What the hell was that about ratpeople? That what you nobles call
dirty peasants?"
Although they're uncommon where you grew up Kazou,
(since we could only be humans or spirit folk, I assumed that were the
only races)
*shakes head*
There are genuine rat people in Hyuga. They are considered of the
unclean caste, and and do the poorest of the poor job, and handle
corpses considered "impure"
(they're a bit different) because they have a hard time communicating
with humans, and aren't of the...highest intelligence
(Thus making a rat PC character improbable)
*looks outside at the storm* "I have a fricken suite fit for an emperor's
bastard and I have to spend the night here?"
"This sucks."
Spending the night inside the temple...wouldn't be wise. As you're
unsure of any guards coming to your area
*shakes head* "This is all your fault."
As you don't imagine that ninja master slaughtered the entire Imperial
court guard to cover up your mistake.
 Battousai876 (9:29:51 PM): "You know the way back to the inn?"
FnJen (9:30:33 PM): "I do. But I think perhaps I should just leave you here for the night to

wouldn't be in this mess!"
*rolls dice*
You hear the thundering continuing outside
"Oh! You ran off without me, you idiot! If you had waited for me, we
wouldn't be in this situation!"
"This is all YOUR fault!"
"Yeah, whatever."
"Always have to get the last word. You are a child."
"I'm going to find a tavern or something with a hard drink. You can
follow me or stick around with the ugly wooden lion."
*heads off*
Nanami, as you dish out a verbal beatdown to your bodyguard, you
notice the silohuette of a person at the entrance of the temple.
"Kazuo, wait."
*ignores*
"Kazuo, you moron!"
The person hears your words and knows that you've noticed him.
He seems to have disappeared
*talks to self* "this kid is starting to get to be too much."
*shakes head and follows Kazuo* "I'm too much?! You're the one who
acts like a child!"
Suddenly 4 guards burst through the entrance of the shrine, each with
spears in on hand and lanterns in the other
"Drop your weapons now!!"
"woah,woah, that's my line officer!"
*drifts hand towards sword*
*looks around* "Put down your sword, you idiot!"
2 more guards come in and join the mass
"I'm not playing games with you. Some of our own have died tonight."
"This sure as hell won't go unpunished."
"We're just newlyweds here to pay our respects."
*shakes head*
"We wanted to be alone, you see. That's why we picked this place."
*whispers* "Let me talk, you moron."
"Bullshit. We've seen people matching your description sneaking
around here. A woman and a ronin. Drop your weapons"
*looks for an escape route*
*steps forward* "I am unarmed. Please, let me explain what
happened."
(who has the gold btw)
(The only escape route would be up the stairs to the second floor, then
out the window)
The man turns his spear straight at Nanami
"We found lightning wounds on one of our men. You're a magician now
aren't you?"
All of the men look ready to pounce on you, they don't need any
excuse at this point
 FnJen (9:40:43 PM): *glares* "The word is Shugenji. And if I were you, I would be more

careful about throwing accusations at the daughter of a nobleman.
Harm me, and the fallout will not be kind upon you."
"I killed no one."
"Raaaaahhhh! Tell that to my friend you killed!" A young guard jumps
out and charges straight towards you Nanami
*rolls dice*
The tip of the spear sears right through your arm
Initiative time
*screams*
"=-O"
It's Nanami's turn, then the guards, then Kazuo
Retreat behind the meatshield.
"Nanami, get out the back window!"
There is a staircase that is secluded in darkness
Knowing the layout of this shrine, that's your only alternative escape
route, unless you want to try squeezing through the guardsmen
(attack of opportunities out the ass)
(well...not if she succeeded a tumble roll)
(because I expect a mage totally could)
(just do something damn it)
*thinks*
How's my condition?
You're going to have a tough time grasping anything with your left arm
but other than that you're ok
I make a run for the staircase.
You sprint up the staircase, and the spearman who was up in your face
tries to stop you
*rolls dice*
You manage to dodge, although I wouldn't call it a graceful maneuver
(pictures flailing arms and legs*
You reach the top floor, there are windows but they are closed.
Outside of the windows are roof scales, which you should be able to
walk on.
Should the storm outside not make it too slippery...
"Oi, bastards. Your old guard buddy make a good meal for the rats, I
bet."
The guard's turn
"Couldn't handle the wrath of a true samurai."
The young guard is about to chase after the girl, but grits his teeth.
(I was totally the one who killed him, tho)
"I'll make you pay for that bastard!!!"
(>:o)
*rolls a lot of dice*
3 guards attack Kazou (more would, except they'll have to surround
you first)
While 1 heads to the base of the staircase
Kazou, 1 hits and the others miss
It's a glancing blow, you're able to deflect it using your katana sheath
(badass)
Blastoderm195 (9:52:37 PM): Your turn
Battousai876 (9:52:45 PM): (If this was an anime, I'd reveal my secret demon bloodline technique
right about now)
Blastoderm195 (9:52:49 PM): If you get surrounded, you'll have to make a tumble check to get out
Blastoderm195 (9:52:58 PM): (bitch plz)
Battousai876 (9:53:03 PM): Do I have an escape routes open?
Battousai876 (9:53:05 PM): *any
Blastoderm195 (9:53:32 PM): The staircase, but you'ld get 3 AoO's and be right up against the guy
trying to get up the staircase
Battousai876 (9:53:54 PM): hm...what if I made a break for the main entrance?
Blastoderm195 (9:54:19 PM): Your only option would be to roll a tumble check, and even then you'ld
get AoO's
Battousai876 (9:54:34 PM): argh, you're playing the gay way with all these AoOs
Blastoderm195 (9:54:43 PM): xD
Battousai876 (9:54:57 PM): how many guards are there total, and where the hell are they at? this is
where we need a damn map
FnJen (9:54:59 PM): Be a man and kill them.
Blastoderm195 (9:55:08 PM): 3 guards in front of you
Blastoderm195 (9:55:12 PM): 1 guard going up the stairs
Blastoderm195 (9:55:33 PM): 2 guards trying to encircle you Kazou, but need another turn to make
room
Battousai876 (9:56:04 PM): alright, well I need to get to a place like a hallway where they have to
come at me one at a time
Battousai876 (9:56:11 PM): am i near any of such areas?
Blastoderm195 (9:56:27 PM): The shrine is an open area for the most part, the only part would be the
staircase
Battousai876 (9:56:40 PM): you and your g-damn staircase
Battousai876 (9:56:47 PM): alright, I make a break for the staircase
Battousai876 (9:56:55 PM): I tumble or whatever
Blastoderm195 (9:57:25 PM): Ok, you attempt to pull of a gymnastic somersault, something you
never picked up from your samurai master.
Battousai876 (9:57:43 PM): "Never been in such a shitty situation before..."
Blastoderm195 (9:57:57 PM): You make a valiant attempt, if this was kindergarten gymnastic tryouts.
Battousai876 (9:58:04 PM): lewl.
Blastoderm195 (9:58:17 PM): You managed to get to the base of the stairs, let's see how cut up you
get
Blastoderm195 (9:58:37 PM): ...All 3 of the guards miss
Battousai876 (9:58:43 PM): yay
Blastoderm195 (9:58:51 PM): Nanami, it's your turn
Battousai876 (9:58:54 PM): O:
Battousai876 (9:59:00 PM): tumbling took my entire turn?
Battousai876 (9:59:01 PM): *bitches*
Blastoderm195 (9:59:05 PM): Yep
FnJen (9:59:07 PM): What are my threats? Just the one dude?
Battousai876 (9:59:21 PM): (Nanami tumbled and ran to the roof in a turn. -.-)
Blastoderm195 (9:59:25 PM): Yep, your bodyguard seems to be sandwhiched between you and the
mob
FnJen (9:59:30 PM): (because I'm awesome*
Battousai876 (9:59:37 PM): "Some help would be appreciated."

Fine. Let me check my spells.
(So? could've gave me the chance to bull rush the bitch)
Burning Hands would injure him too, right?
(would've forced you to read up on some rules)
But probably not as much as the horde of guards.
Not if you judged your distance right
I'll give it the college try.
Ok, you bring your palms out (your arm quivers painfully from your
previous wound) and cast your spell
The flames jet out and hit burn him right in the face, causing him to fall
to his knees. He's unable to get a reflex save because of his position
next to Kazou
He's still alive, but barely
What do you do with the other half of your turn?
(some of us are blessed with a full turn)
(you can move attack, or attack move, or move move in a turn)
I move!
Time to start escaping.
You make it to the window on the second floor, your arm prevents you
from opening it immediately.
Guardsmen's turn
Kazou, which way are you facing?
dur, the way where the 5 guards are
The young guard leaps at you and drives his spear right into you
But at the last minute it veers off course and hits the wall
...he can't 'drive his spear right into me' and miss.
The burnt guard attempts a grapple to hold you down
:-*
I toss him over my head all badass like
*judo throw*
Not with that strength roll
o:
He's got you by the waist, every turn you don't break free you're flat
footed and denied any dex bonus to defense
wait
The other guards cluster behind the young guard
I'm trying to picture this
we're at the base of the stairs
the wall I assume is next to the stairwell, correct?
Yes
and all the guards are a little farther down?
All the guards are right at the base of the stairs too, it's a clusterfrak
downthere
Only one can attack you at a time however
"I must be fucking irresistable! But I don't swing that way, fellas."
*taunts as free action*
It's your turn Kazou
I try to break free
of this clusterfuck
You're able to shake the charred man off you and push him against the

Battousai876 (10:10:38 PM): I run over him as I swiftly climb to the top of the stairs, then I turn

steps. What do you do?
around to face the clusterfuck of guards down below.
clamber up the stairs
Gah. Ace, isn't the way free for you to freaking run?
girl, it ain't been free for years.
(he has to leap over the burned guy)
this is a clusterfuck
Ugh.
I should've killed him.
The spear stabs the charred man instead of you Kazou
You get on top of the stairs scot-free
w00t
yay!

you still have another half a turn
Fucking run.
I fucking run outside the window
It's dark up here, you'll get concealment bonuses
You run to a window and find that it's closed
0;
I open it?
You huff and puff and fling the rusty window up
Nanami, it's the window you're next to as well
"Why am I having difficulty with this when the girl opened it with one
arm?"
"I'm such a pussy."
(no she couldn't)
Nanami, your window of escape is now opened to you. It's your turn
"Get the hell out of here!"
"Don't have to tell me twice!"
*GTFOs*
You leap ontop of the rooftop
It's a full on hailstorm outside.
"..."
Cherry blossom leaves swirl in the sky making a sea of pinks and
whites
You try to keep your footing here *rolls dice*
Your noblelady shoes are unfit for these ninja roof-running manuevers,
and you lose your balance
But your bodyguard grabs your shirt and keeps you from falling
facedown into the mud below
:-*
"Kazuo, don't let go!"
"What's wrong? Did I sweep you off your feet?" ;-)
"..."
(how far a drop is it?)

If you're feeling lucky with your ninja skills
"My arm's starting to hurt. Get back on the roof and stop being so
clumsy for once!"
*fights off mob with a single arm*
The guard's turn
Don't you fucking let me go!>:o
You can hear them cursing down below, and the adament pissed off
guard makes it to the top of the stairs, sounds like he stepped over that
one guy
Kazou, it's your turn, Nanami is stabilized for now. You don't have to
keep grabbing her kimono.
*fondles breasts as a free action*
"Just makin sure they're secure."
;-)
...
*gets on rooftop*
"Stop pawing at me!"
You squeeze yourself out on the rooftop and try the roof for balance
I keep low to the floor
if I start to fall, I stick my katana in the roof LIKE A BOSS.
While crouched you gain a bonus to your balance, although you are
slowed. You have your balance
Do you wish to head to a connecting rooftop (to what seems to be
another shrine dedicated to something-or-other)
where's Nanami?
She's on the rooftop, next to the window
Flailing uselessly behind you, probs.
aight.
"Check this out, toots."
Can you carry me?
Because I don't think she's gonna be able to do this.
It would require a strength check, and it won't do much for your
balance bonus
"I dunno, you've packed on quite a few pounds recently." *smirks*
*jumps across rooftop*
"..."
You leave Nanami to fend for herself as you jump to the nearby shrine
rooftop, which is at the edge of the Inner Square wall.
Next turn you may be able to get over that.
"See if you can keep up!"
Nanami, what do you do?
uhhh
Would taking off my shoes help my balance?
Yep, natural footing would be the best for your balance
I take them off and follow Kazuo, then.
I'm probably gonna face plant.
Your slippers slide down the roof and flop to the ground as you

good hand)
For a moment you think you could've been a shinto ninja in a previous
life.
"Meh, showoff."
:-*"Jealous?"
You are right next to Kazou
I elbow him in the ribcage.
Glancing back you see the guardsmen stick his face out the window
looking around
Do you try to hide from his view?
yepyep
You both press your back against the rooftop and go unseen. The
weather severely restricts visibility as well.
Combat is over (tentatively)
"This reminds me of when this karate master caught me with his wife."
(the combat music isn't playing anymore)
"Except for the spear-stabbing."
"This reminds me of the other times I did better than you at
everything."
"The main-roads aren't safe. We need to get the hell out of this place."
"What do you suggest?"
"I say we throw a gold piece at a stable boy and take a couple horses."
"With my lame arm?"
*sighs* "We'll double-up then."
"Well, we need to find a stable. You're a peasant, so you should know
where to find one."
"..."
"And remember that we need to collect our belongings."
"Forget them. It's too risky."
*heads to what appears to be the outskirts of the city*
"Too risky?! It would take a few seconds!"
"We can't spend our money on new things."
Every so often you peek around the side and see what looks to be a
mass of lanterns running around the square
"It'll take hours to retrieve them. All that you have is makeup and
useless clothes."
"That can be sold for quite a lot."
"Unless you believe we have so much money that it could never run
out."
*mumble-grumbles* "...so can you."
"..."
*back-hands*
"We don't have time to argue. We can send a messenger for your
clothes later." *looks for an alleyway that should keep us hidden*
The storm outside is still raging, you're basically yelling at each other's
ear drums just to hear each other.
"Fine, let's go!"

You will have to scale the wall, which is about 8 feet higher than you
from your current position on the rooftop
Or
You can make your way down and try sneaking through the alleyways
of the Inner Square
and make it out of one of the four gates
I'm not Olmec. You decide.
We can always try our hand at the Shrine of the Silver Monkey.
How many of those weird talismans do we have?
I've already gotten molested by those trees twice.
Considering how many times you have already been molested, not too
many left
lul
Ace, I'll defer to your judgement on this one.
I motion to Nanami that we're climbing down.
*bitchy eye roll*
By motion you flail your arms up and down
*does a few pelvic thrusts*
and start to shimmy down, it's only a story high, so you're able to hang
down and drop safely
Even with my arm?
*prepares to catch Nanami*
Hm, Kazou is there and pulls you down safely.
Teamwork exp bonus
"Saw up your skirt." :-P
"And that is as close as you'll ever get."
"It's closer then any man would dare."
"Let's go."
I check for guards
As long as you still to the dark narrow alleyways, the chances of
running into guards are slim
As you approach the gate entrance, there's a cluster of guards
"..."
"Don't you have some kind of spell for this? Transform into the
Emperor!"
"It's not that simple!"
"Why'd my shujengi have to be so useless?"
Your disguise spell let's you change your appearance visually.

"I have an idea."
"I can distract them, if only temporarily."
"You'll have to be quick and stealthy to get past them while I'm doing
this."
"Can I trust you?"

Yes.

And voila, you are a geisha.

pawing at our belongings! I slipped out and have been running around,
looking for help!"

The guy with the spear at your back gets a clean shot at your back
wait, I don't even get a check?
I'm rolling dice here
That's just flavor flav
He hit yo ass
no, I'm talking about my bluff about telling them where the girl is
or do they just kill on sight and have no notion to capture people alive?
They didn't pay attention. You're a dead giveaway. The description
was a ronin. Downside of being a "badass"
Ronin's are unheard of
You take a spear right in the ribs

Yeah, that was kinda my fault...
The man tries to tear your sword away from you with a str check
"This is getting old...real fast..."
It stays on you
Kazou, it's your turn
I...would suggest running.
Real fast like.
I'll take care of the rest. 8-)
>:o
Fine, I run like a friggen pussy.
The guard is still grabbed on to your sword. You can drop it and
escape freely
lolno
I'll get your freaking sword, Ace.
Ok do you try to pull away forcefully then?
yep
I use all my masturabatory practice and yank
...Well taking that into account *rerolls*
You have him thrown to the ground and you are free
What do you do.
run out the gate
You start sprinting as fast as you can
Nanami, your turn
It seems like the storm is starting to subside, for better or worse
I cast Hypnotism, all sneaky like.
Try to calm these guys down.
What is your mental suggestion you send?
"Go and help the geisha's family instead of pursuing the ronin"
Hopefully their libidos will triumph.
They did seem like the ronery types
You manage to entrance...
All of them actually
8-)
They start running in the direction to the geisha's house
You still have half a turn
I run after Kazuo.
I don't think they'll notice me.
You both high tail it out of there at high speed
The two guards do notice you Nanami
*rolls dice*
fuckfuckfuck
Your lack of shoes will hurt your speed
But you round a corner
There's raman noodle side shops everywhere
And a few pedestrians
During a storm?
Yep, there's covers on them
Ain't it like 3am?
They're clearly disreputable folk/

without pushing yourself
:-*
You do have the endurance feat however...
Do you keep running?
"What a drag..."
Eventually you will get to a forest in the outskirts
*keeps running*
ok, "combat music fades"
The storm stops, and is replaced by a stillness
Well, we've somehow managed to screw things up even more than
before.
You're both nursing injuries.
"Never been in a pinch like that...I really hope not to make a habit of it."
We're seperated, aren't we?
The shock from them have worn off and the pain is becoming evident
No
You managed to keep up with Kazou in his punctured lung state
Well it seemed like more of a trot
"We should...probably find somewhere to recover."
Your feet are sore, clearly unused to being mistreated this way
There's a pond nearby and some large rocks
"That's as good a place as any."
The ground is muddy and mushy.
*stares at area with raccoon-like eyes*
*sits on rock* "I want to go home."
You make a spot check, surveilling the area. You don't see any danger
-.-
"I don't want to be here. I don't want to be at the academy."
"I want to go home to my bed, my sheets, my food, and my family."
"Yeah well get over it!"
*hugs knees to chest*
"This isn't fair. It's your fault that I'm here!"
"I can't believe it...now I've got the Emperor riding my ass!"
"bad enough with this twerp."
*tears up* "Leave me alone! I hate you. I shouldn't have saved you
from those guards!"
*rolls dice*
Nanami, you hear the sound of branches being walked over behind
you. Kazou, your ears pick up that it's sandals.
Sandal on one foot, bare on the other. Short strides. A woman or child.
"Son of a..." *pulls out sword*
*stands up*
You turn around and see a woman in a blue kimono with a wooden
hood on.
She turns around and seems more occupied in what's behind her than
you two.

She practically stumbles onto you two
"Ahem"
Her eyes filled first with fear then with something else.
*stares at woman*
Her gaze goes between the both of you. Despite being out of breath
and a soaking mess she stands up straight. She speaks with a farmer's
accent
"You two don't look like royal guards to me."
*glares* "Perhaps that means we aren't? Wonder of wonders, what a
strange conclusion to reach."
"Can't say I fit the type, miss..."
My name is Toshie. She notices your current tired state (and kranky
state apparently)
(Nanami with the ICEBURN)
She lowers her voice. "You were with Satsuma weren't you? I
apologize, my running away must have caused you all of this trouble in
the first place."
She takes a long bow, her voice sounds sincere.
You can make out her features better in the moon light
"I'm not sure I know what you're-"
(I'm assuming she's really hawt?)
Her face gives her Kondo heritage away, long with pronounced
features. Wide shoulds and stands tall for a woman.
Where the coastal cities prefer petite and soft features, the Kondo
beautify more practical and child-bearing assets.
Although she still has her courtroom white facepaint on, you imagine
she has tanned skin from a life of hard labor.
*folds arms*
"Let me reintroduce myself. My name is Toshie, and I knew Satsuma
long before he became Emperor."
*glares* "I am sure you expect us to welcome you with complete trust
and openness. But I am in no such mood for that."
"Prove to us that you are not a demon nor a spirit."
"Hey kid, the lady's trying to help us out here."
"No, it's ok. You are right to be suspect of me."
"I'm sure you think so."
"I'd gladly take a demon spirit if it means I get a roof over my head."
"And that is why I am smarter than you."
She shows you a seal "My title is, or was royal astrologist here."
"Easily forged."
She smiles
The Kondo have a saying that trust is earned in years, not in the
market.
Believe me when I say I am on your side. I have given up everything
here at the capital to join you two.
I...read your summons
"..."
"Satsuma has been silent with me as of late. I knew he was up to
something."
"Kazuo. What do you think?"
She waits, but can't contain the question "He's told you about his
 visions?"
Battousai876 (11:41:03 PM): "Welcome to the team, Tosh!"
Blastoderm195 (11:41:34 PM): "Thank you. "
Blastoderm195 (11:41:58 PM): "Satsuma has always been a prodigy. Ever since we were young he
has told me of his prophetic visions."
Battousai876 (11:42:09 PM): "Yeah, we've got a full stack of quests. It's a pain, er, I mean an
honor."
FnJen (11:42:25 PM): "Yes, well."
Blastoderm195 (11:42:39 PM): "It is kept secret that he grew up in the Dry Basin area. It was and still
is a politically unstable area full of revolutionaries. His mother died
when he was still young, and my family took him in."
Blastoderm195 (11:42:49 PM): She looks at the moon as if it would send her back to the days of
yesteryear
Blastoderm195 (11:43:02 PM): "I have always looked after him, but he has been...pulled out of my
grasp."
Blastoderm195 (11:43:20 PM): "I wish to help him in any way I can."
Blastoderm195 (11:43:50 PM): "...There are those in the court who are suspicious of my true
background, and I cannot be seen with him for fear of rumors between
us. I would end my life before causing him dishonor."
Blastoderm195 (11:44:07 PM): You can tell she's serious about this.
FnJen (11:44:45 PM): "I believe you."
Battousai876 (11:44:50 PM): "Not to interrupt, but do you think we could get out of the rain for the
rest of the story?"
Blastoderm195 (11:45:30 PM): "Sorry, I've gone on for too long. I've been prepared to tell you two this
for so long."
Blastoderm195 (11:46:19 PM): She comes to a realization while you two try your best to walk. "! Are
you injured badly? We can't have you travel in that condition!"
FnJen (11:46:21 PM): *thinks*
FnJen (11:46:31 PM): "Yes. We have both been injured."
Blastoderm195 (11:47:01 PM): "Satsuma wasn't involved with this, right?"
Battousai876 (11:47:24 PM): "Eh, it was more a personal matter. The Emperor is fine."
Blastoderm195 (11:47:26 PM): (You can tell that she doesn't want any bad news to be connected with
His Majesty)
FnJen (11:48:01 PM): "Yes, these injuries were a result of...various mistakes."
Blastoderm195 (11:48:21 PM): There is a Kondo community in the outskirts of the capital. It's not
labelled on the maps but
Blastoderm195 (11:48:40 PM): They should keep us for a few days, until your back in travelling
condition.
Blastoderm195 (11:48:58 PM): I can interpret his visions then.
Battousai876 (11:49:25 PM): "Sounds like a plan."
Blastoderm195 (11:49:26 PM): She seems to bounce happily. "This is so much more exciting than
court life."
Battousai876 (11:49:37 PM): "Right..."
Battousai876 (11:50:02 PM): *whispers to Nanami* "I give her one week."
FnJen (11:50:25 PM): *shakes head*
Blastoderm195 (11:50:40 PM): She notices your camraderie. "Do you two know each other?"
FnJen (11:50:48 PM): "Yes, regrettably."
Battousai876 (11:50:59 PM): "We're best of pals."
Blastoderm195 (11:51:17 PM): She smiles. "Then it must be fate that's brought your two souls
together! Like moths to the flame!"
FnJen (11:51:24 PM): "Yes, we will surely be at each other's weddings and funerals."

You don't think she caught your joke.
*thinks about it for awhile*
"hilarious."
"I never caught your names..."
"Oh, your brain has finally rubbed two thoughts together to form a
coherent sentence. A remarkable day."
"I am Nanami Sato, of house Sato. You should know of me. He is of no
importance."
"A noblewoman. You don't have anything against Kondo do you?"
"Kazuo Nakazawa, bodyguard extroadinaire. But you can call me Kaz,

impression than he."

"Something like that." *is badass*
"Nanami. Do something for me."
"Ordering the kid around already? I like this one!"

"I...yes."
"Perhaps next time...ask, rather than do. I am not fond of being

"I dunno, I thought it was pretty neat."

"Yes...I suppose I shall."
"You are clearly educated. Yes, I am training to be a Shugenji."
"What's a ronin doing guarding a shugenji? That's like a lion guarding a
tiger."
"feels like we've been de-clawed, most days. like this one."
"Yes. My father insisted that I have a guard, and he felt that a failed
Ronin would do the job better than most."

"Everything happens for a reason Nami"

wewt
I think I did good.
yep
wit mah spellz
I was dissappointed with that clusterfuck of guards tho
Indeed. The combat was a bit much but you survived
that got old
You're not supposed to be slaying townguardsmen.
WWKD
What would kenshin do
O:
Throw a vial of period blood at them? *shrugs*
I need to trade my sword in for a verus-blade.
And I need to learn more AoE spells.
You will when you level. For sure.
*reverse-blade
Good!
Although I'm going realistic on the healing
It will take you time to recover
and sinse SOMEBODY can't heal us
Okay, you totally told me to take fire.
I recall you saying 'LOL we don't need a healer'.
And the 100 days is like your time limit. If I can remember to keep track
of it
:-\ not really. I wanted you to do what you wanted
But you ENCOURAGED fire.
Well it seems to fit your char. concept
Indeed!
yep
It took you two sessions and like 8 hours but you've finally finished the
intro
yay
Oh wow.
Go us.
but derek, is there any way you can draw out the battle stuff?
like the WEE chatbox has a drawing app
