Wit on the other hand, seems to be disrespecting all of us.”

Opal Lion Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 Luckily for Beggar, none of the guards noticed him carrying his sack of wine bottles. He left the main feast hall without incident, and headed towards the Beggar's Porch. Along the way, he decided that he would probably just put the wine back in its original hiding place in the rafters. The eavesdropper was surely long gone by now, and the search concluded. After all that effort to retrieve the wine though, Beggar wasn't about to turn right back around. No, he would enjoy a few bottles of wine first, hopefully share some with anyone he happened to meet at his destination. The wine was heavy, but Beggar was able to carry it without needing to stop and rest. He quickly reached the Beggar's Porch, sat down, and pulled out a random bottle of wine. A red, evidently. Beggar began to drink, ears pricked in case any prospective wine drinkers ventured near.
little wilson she/her Posted September 19, 2018 Author Posted September 19, 2018 This cycle is now closed.
little wilson she/her Posted September 20, 2018 Author Posted September 20, 2018 Cancel that. We got the rollover half done and then things got busy and will be busy for us for the next few days. We are therefore reopening this cycle and extending to Sunday. We are also giving everyone one additional action for this turn only. 1
Quartz Zebra Posted September 20, 2018 Posted September 20, 2018 Eshonai continued to observe the Alethi at the party. Oddly, time seemed to have slowed down. Who knows what these fabrials the Alethi possessed could do.
Ivory Dragonfly Posted September 20, 2018 Posted September 20, 2018 You said it! I'm walking so slowly I'm moving backwards! *Thud* Ow. Oh, hi, @SE_Jasnah_Kholin . Say, how does this even work? Can I blame timespren for this? 1
Fuchsia Ostrich Posted September 20, 2018 Posted September 20, 2018 "Yes, brother, timespren are what make these fabrials. The difficulty is in the obtaining the timespren, as they rarely ever manifest themselves. I would go into more detail, but I'm afraid I don't think you'd understand. "And, unfortunately, they don't work as we had hoped. They were supposed to slow down everyone except the user. Instead, they merely slow down the passing of time, but no one actually slows down. Also, one of the chulls took them. Unless we find the timespren soon, this will be a long night."

Oxblood Beagle Posted September 20, 2018 Posted September 20, 2018 Ash turned over an hourglass. The sands inside fell at the rate she expected them to. She set the hourglass on one of the tables. As soon as she took her hand off, the sand slowed down. Interesting, she thought.
Sage Kangaroo Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 Klade frowned, humming to the Rhythm of Irritation. This hour was going to stretched out further. The sooner the party got over with, the better for the treaty. A longer party meant more chances for things to go wrong.

Really, if you couldn't enjoy some political maneuvering, what was the point of even attending. It surely wasn't the company. Edited September 21, 2018 by SE_Torol_Sadeas
Magenta Albatross Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 Yes, well, the Alethi aren’t the only ones to have invented political parties... Though our kind of political party is definitely the best kind.
Emerald Falcon Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 Ialai experimentally tossed a sphere in the air and watched it slow as it left her hand, worming upwards at a much more sluggish rate. An interesting phenomenon. Perhaps she was drunk, hallucinating. A rare occurrence for her. It hadn’t happened often, even during nights of reverie. And Ialai hadn’t drunk that much - had she? Nevertheless, she considered throwing something at Wit, as it would make less of a spectacle while achieving the same effect, and decided against it. Instead, she plucked the now falling sphere out of the air and began to stride towards the others.
Sapphire Elephant Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 Szeth watched his surroundings with horror. The Alethi were able to -- however loosely -- control the flow of time itself? He gaze it five years before the Alethi inevitably figured out how to exploit this control in their battles.
Indigo Weasel Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 Ivory stepped from Shadesmar back into the palace, and promptly fell down. It was as if he'd stepped form a fast-flowing river into a slow-flowing one. He looked around in shock and surprise, and noticed the many things that where just wrong. The humans where moving around at an accelerated rate, as if time had sped up for them. He could barely follow their conversations, the human voices having become nearly unrecognizable, but he heard enough. 'time-spren', 'fabrial' and 'chull' told him all he needed to know. 'Now they've really gone too far', he though as eh stepped back into Shadesmar. He was going to have to find the chull and break whatever infernal contraption the humans had built that allowed them to change the flow of time itself.
Amethyst Scorpion Posted September 23, 2018 Posted September 23, 2018 Quote Well, I was really good at checking for updates on the thread for the day it was closed, then bad for the past two days so, morale of the story, I'm bad at this game. Dalinar hated these new Fabrials. the wibbiley wobbely, timey wimey, mess that it caused was useless, it did not even seem as if it was truly having an affect on the world as a whole, didn't seem to have any practical combat uses, and did not even let him get more drunk. All in all, it was horrible.
Mint Heron Posted September 23, 2018 Posted September 23, 2018 I woke up from the nap I had been taking. "Clearly this party got a bit boring for me. How about we add a bit more spice?" I put down a fabrial, which suddenly drew all the alcohol in the room towards it, smashing most of the bottles, and causing several lighteyes to give me dirty looks. "Excellent."
Magenta Albatross Posted September 23, 2018 Posted September 23, 2018 (edited) “Probably for the best,” Aesudan remarked, glancing at Dalinar’s shattered bottle. Edited September 23, 2018 by SE_Aesudan_Kholin

Sage Kangaroo Posted September 23, 2018 Posted September 23, 2018 Klade stared at the new ruckus. There obviously had been some fabrial that could attract alcohol, though how they would work was a question of interest. Alcoholspren were only rumors. He walked over to the cause of the shattered glass all over. "Hello Wit. The Alethi nobility might actually hire someone to assassinate you now."
Azure Mouse Posted September 23, 2018 Posted September 23, 2018 Torol Sadeas tried to hold onto his glass of wine, but all he accomplished was to keep the glass while the wine flowed out of the top. "What in damnation?" He watched as his wine fell to the floor and moved across the room. It seemed all the wine in the room was doing the same thing. All of it was headed to one place: Wit. Sadeas called out to the infernal man. "I hope you can drink all that. Then maybe you'll finally be a pleasant feast companion, passed out faster than dear Dalinar.
Saffron Iguana Posted September 23, 2018 Posted September 23, 2018 Venli watched, interested, as time went wrong. She smiled, then went down the halls, trying to find the Chull with the spren. Maybe I could discover a new form! Timeform!
