Did we save the world?

So.... after fun with the Death Carnival, I had to go shed fur for multiple hours, and clean out my sinuses. Did we save the world from Magical Entropy or not? I know I spent most of my skills and high end magics on acquiring wands Friday evening, and Saturday morning. There was some sort of barbarian murder fest late Saturday? My magics still didn't come back properly....

-Gnot
 
Alas, when the time came, the decision was made to let a fae lead the ritual.

Something went horribly awry.

~Ahlana
 
...

How bad is "horribly awry"?

-Radi
 
alas, ahlana made the decision to burn down the homes of da barbarians and to let dem stand in prisons outside as da watched it burn. dat br why da barbarians came. and yet where was she and da others? hiding in dar cabins......

and no da ritual didnt work. and now we got two wands gone and more barbarians on da why
 
Yes, I burned one of their buildings.
Yes, I told the others not to kill the barbarians.
No, the prisons were not mine.
No, I did not, nor did I ever, possess the wand they came into town to retrieve.

You were not here for the barbarians prior attack.
You were not here when they murdered members of my house.
You were not here when they murdered the Vanguard.

You were sleeping with the enemy.

This pointless banter will not resolve anything.

Radi,
the short version.
The wands were gathered.
The ritual attempted.
The ritual failed.
4 elders were released, but none of the magiks.
The lightning and healing wands returned to their prior owners.
It will be at least one moon before another ritual is prepared.

If you have any questions, please direct them to the people that occasionally visit, as they obviously know more than I.

~Ahlana
 
You were not here for the barbarians prior attack.
You were not here when they murdered members of my house.
You were not here when they murdered the Vanguard.

The ritual attempted.
The ritual failed.
~Ahlana

Why were barbarians murdering members of your house, and the Vanguard?
To date, I haven't had any interaction with them.

Were their any persistant effects from the failed ritual?
Were the Fae being tapped for power to charge up the ritual?
Does the release of 4 elders result in an easier ritual or the opposite?
Do we need all the wands again, or just the ones that have elders in them?
Did the release of multiple "elders" and a flawed ritual in the same location weaken the dimensional barriers between planes in that location?
 
Nope no Fae was tapped for da ritual...... But the Elder Fae wasn't happy with sharing the a body with a fire aspect and kicked it out..... It was cool to watch too...... Ummmm..... Probably do need wands again...... Me gave Lightning back to prince....... Me could try get beck when needed ...... Me told Shiny me would...... Hmmm...... Not sure about barrier between planes at that location.... Me know it was easy to rift there......Well me now know why Life lord thumped the Elder Fae and sent us back unconscious ........ Why do peoples have so much problem width the fae?........
 
How dare you Ahlana! Pebbles was in no way "Sleeping with the enemy". She made a deal that involved giving up a peace of her spirit to get us a better chance at retreaving that wand.

Honestly, we shouldn't be pointing fingers at who caused what problems, and gather that we need to work together better as a town. I know some of you were doing other things but I was very sad in our so called "Town" when it was announced the barbarians where coming to retrieve their wand and half of our adventures fled back to their cabins; I am very proud of the ones who stayed. What does that tell the barbarians when only a dozen or so people will defend a town? Ultimately that is how we lost one of our wands, I believe it was the Unicorn wand, and the Barbarians wanted it back, but it also saved everyones life.

Even though the ritual went bad quickly we still got four out, that is better then none. I know the ritual wasn't easy and for the ones casting the ritual I thank you.

~Bishop
 
Yes the ritual had failed before fully completing it. 4 out of the 12 elders were released but the magic was not restored. We are in process of getting another scroll and trying it again. Even though we weren't successful i would still like to thank everyone and their efforts to get and empower the wands. I know everyone sacrificed something and some more than others. Again Thank you!

Don't, I would greatly appreciate it and you will have my thanks if you can get the lightning wand back next market so we can try again.

Now on the matter of "pointing fingers". Pebbles was indeed NOT sleeping with the barbarians but instead she gave up a lot and sacrificed a lot in order for us to retrieve the unicorn wand in the first place. While my condolences goes out to you Grand Sage Lady Ahlana for the murder of your house this is not a time to point fingers at anyone. As well as you Pebbles no need to start any tension within our own ranks. I ask that any differences be put aside until we solve this magic problem.

As for what Bishop had said I see why you and the others who stayed and fought against the barbarians may feel like we are not a "town", I do not fault anyone for not staying and fighting. The barbarians were a frightening army before but after the stand that myself and others made late Saturday night, we now weaknesses of them and how to attack more efficiently. All that i ask is that in order to bring this town back to being united as a whole, that the next time they come because i know they will, that we all stand and fight both big and small, experienced or not and show these barbarians that we are not afraid and show them who they are messing with!

Thank you!!
Squire Shiny!
 
I think next time, we should have more Celestial Power to balance out the Amount of earth used. It took three of us to not even equal Liddia. I would ask that maybe Ahlana could help too as I know she has at least a small nit of formal. And the lasting effects of the backlash are felt, just not by those outside the Circle.

For Havoc, Again, sorry for the Flame blast. We didn't mean to torch the land.

I gots formal.... Me be happy to help...... Promise me wont poke the magic..... Even though it would be neat.....
 
Obviously we have seen what Poking the Magic can Do Don't. We would appreciate the help and your cooperation. I am sure next time we can finish it.
 
yet where was she and da others? hiding in dar cabins......

Pebbles, you seem only to look at one side of that issue. When I was berated for taking shelter from the battle I noticed the recurring theme was that of 'standing together'. I found this extremely ironic, seeing as many of those I know of who took shelter as I did have been treated as everything BUT equals. No consideration is given to their opinions, nor is any weight considered of their actions. Furthermore, anything one could call kinship is hardly shared with them. Maybe once have I seen any of them included in conversation or the like, rather being secluded amongst themselves. I hear it said that all are welcome, but by your actions, the message is bastardized to say that they aren't wanted nor needed. So, when you come and ask them to fight alongside you in your time of need, how can you expect them to do so?

Out of the lot of you who direct anger at those who fled, I consider only one to have the right to be so. Faus, throughout the time I have known him, has shown respect for all those I speak of, and is in my opinion the only one with the right to feel betrayed. As one example, when my good friend Clock was amnesiaed, she was extremely frightened, and was she met with comfort? NO. She was met with hostility, being confronted and THREATENED by two of you, used as a vent for those individual's frustrations. Faus, however, sat down with her and talked until she felt better, even with tensions being so high. That is kinship; simply being under the same roof does not make people a family.

So, Pebbles, before you have another self-righteous thought, answer me this: why SHOULD they have fought? It isn't for the sake of companionship, which you have shown none of. It isn't for the sake of the town which could hardly be more divided. Respect is something earned, not given, so before you ask me to lay down my life, my goals, my FAMILY for you, show me you'd do the same.

Wycliff you had better understand that Pebbles has given a piece of her spirit twice now to obtain the healing wand which the barbarians had so how dare you claim she wouldn't lay down her life for you or anyone.

I was killed and amnesiaed twice, thank you very much, and I may have known that had I been included in anything any of you had done or been considered important Enough to be given that information.
 
i will not defend those who have no interest in protecting and fighting for themselves. if dhey make an effort even in the smallest amounts i will ptotect them and you to my last moments on dis dirt. but da barbarians came for all of us, and we were protecting all of you as well. if we would have fallen dhey would have come for you all. yes, i am angry dat the whole town didnt stand as one force. da only way we win is to fight all together. otherwise we all die. we were all small in strength once that has nothing to do with us not including yoy all. adventurers are not known for their communication skills only fighti.g and dieing skills.

The Barbarians will return, that much is certain. I will be talking to Clock and the others about this, but I for certain will stand with Squire Shiny. I hold no ill will to any who accuse me of cowardice as of that last battle, nor do I disagree, but I had obligation to my Family that I could not simply throw to the wind.
 
and that we can all understand. family comes first and formost to all of us, if you are lucky enough to still some. i look forward to do battle with everyone side by side.
