Tear of the Kitin

[trenker]

I've been logging in every day but keep missing these events. Am I just unlucky? I'd like to know because at the moment I have nothing else do in Atys. I've had a bit of a lull in interest since server merge, but I won't bore you with that. So, anyway that I can get involved is good news, please.

[Tidings]

Homins, I bring you a report from Zorai assistant General Hari-Mata.

Notes from the field:
Respectfully submitted to the Council
Hari Mata, Special Operative to the Council

Subject; Surveillance of Oba’s minion: Wormbreath

Your loyal agent after hearing rumors of an altercation last night in Fairhaven involving the infamous Worm breath made their way to his vile stinking cave. I watched him from a corner, The Worm was very agitated and was walking in circles ranting and raving about getting even with Generals Sanantia and Deamla. Between his shouting and cursing he was writing a message of some kind on a dirty scrap of parchment.

Knowing that the council would be interested in whatever the message contained I contrived to lay bottles of Zorai Ale some meters from each other leading away from the lair of The Worm. Luckily for me that I had a good number of them in my pack.

Wormy, the poor fool did exactly as planned when he noticed them, he drank the first one then the next and the next till he was very far from his cave, I saw he was a bit unsteady on his feet and figured I was safe to enter the stinking cavern. I quickly read the message and committed it to memory; the following is Wormbreath’s message to Oba;


Massster,

As you instructed me, I placed that Tryker girl Rikka under an enchantment that rooted her to the ground near the Stables in Fairhaven. Unfortunately for my plans, that do-gooder General Sanantia was nearby, not fearing a mere female I went ahead and cast my spell upon the Tryker wench. Then proceeded to demand that the gathered puny Homins find me that piece of Amber you want so badly Massster.

We really need to do something about this Sanantia Massster, as she immediately took charge of the gathering, she also had the audacity to call in 2 other Guides, Cymrys, who accompanied Sanantia on the quest for the Amber piece and Pogli, who stayed behind and guarded Rikka.

I crept along with the crowd of Homins and discovered that Sanantia had contact with the Seer, who told of a piece hidden in Loria’s Research Post, Dagger served as Pathfinder (he is another to watch Massster, he knows to much for his own good), before long they reached the Post and quickly found the Amber. I ran ahead of them and attempted to block them from using the portal, thinking I could steal the Amber from Sanantia, like I did with the foolish Blackwater Pirates but I could not fool her into giving it to me then, for some reason they wanted Rikka released from her enchantment.

I made haste back to Fairhaven and arrived just before Sanantia arrived.

Now Massster comes a part I have much trouble telling you about, you will be mad at me. Please don’t hurt me, I am in much pain already.

That nasty Sanantia, when I went to snatch the Amber away from her, told me to come “Closer”, she is tricksie Massster, so I backed away, she had something in her hand she wanted to show me, she said. She kept coming toward ma and I backed away from her even more.

OH, Massster, the Pain the Pain, it Burns, it BURNS me so bad!!!!! Oh the Hominanity, Sanantia had backed me into……. The water at Fairhaven!!!!!! I can see my skin now!!! It scares me to see it. My cute little pet Cuttlers are snapping at me now because they don’t know me now that my scent is gone, Oh, Oh, Oh what is poor Wormy to do. We must put a stop to Sanantia and her friend General Deamla soon Massster. I have a plan Massster, We can get the Twins to make…………….

Hummmm, what’s this a bottle of Zorai Ale at my cave entrance?? I will finish this message right after I investigate this Massster.


This, members of the Council ends my report, please warn Sanantia and Deamla that something is afoot with Oba and The Worm, unfortunately whatever plan Wormbreath has was not written yet in the message when I got to it. Rest assured that I and my band of agents will continue our observation of this most distasteful creature.

Homins, heed my words!

[rdfall]

Love this event, not many ppl seem to say it, but i'm sure they do
I can't wait to see where this is leading...
Too bad the goo didn't work, that would have had me go there for a lot of time
But the story is going great, I'd love to know what that amber does, what Wormbreath and Oba could do with it, how the evil twins are involved... and so on . Seems even the blackwater pirates have something to do with it

I'm waiting anxciously, we'll see how it goes

[kibsword]

rofl!!!

I wish I had time to take part in this event, poor wormy

*giggles*

Wormy had a bath!

[systemv]

I know most of the participants are quiet during the event but I'm sure all of us do appreciate it and enjoy our time during it.

I also can't wait to see where this goes; all things seem to point to an invasion which I can't wait for. I hope that all of you are hearing our criticisms about how linear the stories are though. There's a lot of room for improvement and branched storylines are something you should consider. At any rate keep up the good work and I hope to see more!

Homins, I bring you tidings from Deamla's scouts.

"General Deamla had set myself and Yongzhongshi a task to find a couple of pieces of the kitin amber in Fyros and Zorai refugee islands yesterday. We started in Keamon on the Fyros island with Deamla and gathered the homins around to assist us in finding the piece.

The cleaver homins managed to solve the puzzle from the map of clues fairly quickly, and proceded into escorting us to the suspected location of the amber. The homins fought bravely, and many times we thought they may fall under the many gingos that sensed us, but they were indeed strong and fought valiantly throughout.

Deamla soon sensed the piece and we escorted her back to the town with it, and thanked the homins for their hard work.

The brave homins who assisted us were:

Firsei, Frunkles, Minarde, Henaki and Logan

They have shown much potential in becomming great and powerful homins one day. I could clearly see Deamla was impressed.

We then set off for Sheng-Wo in Zorai refugee island, while Deamla went off to attend to other matters. There we found two homins, Wiske and Kyten. They soon solved the puzzle that had our seer puzzling over for a long time, which it turned out was coordinates for triangulation from certain land marks, homin Kyten was very intellegent indeed to work this one out.

We set off and soon found the location, it turns out the piece was moved, and a clue was left at the first location indicating its main loaction, Wiske and Kyten were not stopped by this, and soon we found the true location of the piece. Buried amongst some Beng amber at the location was the piece.

General Deamla soon came in and thanked us all for our hard work, we were very impressed by these two homins who assisted us on our task.

Lieutenant Loariama, kitin scout for General Deamla"

Homins, heed my words!

[rdfall]

Did I hear the word invasion?
anyway, the MOTD points to an invasion too, i mean... : "We are also now hearing of increasing activity across the Homin Lands".

Give me something to do Let this invasion start

[defalgar]

[helbreat]

MOTD earlier mentiond some guy had gone missing while researching the kittins.... maybe we should go look for him? o.0

[Tidings]

Homins, I bring you tidings from General Deamla,

"Last night I was doing my usual rounds in Fairhaven, when my Lueitenant Yongzhongshi came to give me a report. She reported that the kitin activities as we suspected were still on the increase, this has been the case now for several weeks and I fear an attack before long. I must find out what they are planning.

We continuued discussing current matters with some of the homins for a while when the vile Wormbreath appeared! He threatened a few of the homins he had kidnapped in the past; Rikka, Frydeswinde and also Sxarlet this time. He then bragged he was off to Zora, since he still has some of the kitin amber myself and Yong set out after him.

We soon found him raving on in Zora about a piece of amber he had found, and ran off. We gathered a good task force of brave homins and set off. We soon got to the Great Outback and the homins fought their way through wave after wave of Kitin who stood in our way up the ramp. We soon found Wormy, and that was when he cast a spell on myself.

I was unable to assist the homins at this point as I was trapped in some magical field making me invisible and unable to move. Wormy demanded the piece of amber in exchange for Deamla, so Yong set off to find it with the homins. After a while Yong found the spot but it was already dug up, this was when Wormy came in Proclaiming he already had it.

In some misjudgement on Wormy's part, the spell was weakened for a moment and I was able to escape. I soon drove my axe into him, until he was lying on the floor cursing my presence. I stole the amber from him and he soon got up and ran away. The homins escorted myself and the amber back to Zora where I thanked them for their assistance.

Wormy still has the piece he stole from me before, this is not done yet homins, stay alert...

-General Deamla"

Homins, heed my words!
