  1. "We have reason to believe we will need some of your... particular skills." said Melanie. "The cube is, in part, payment. However... we hope that it can be more than just a transaction." She took the cube from her assistant and began to roll it around in her hand. "Our leader knows the value of building bridges. Two armies can do a lot more than one, after all..."

    "Rekaerb," said the man, extending a hand to shake. "Explorer and part-time Archivist. And you?"
  3. The green bugs scatter, flowing down the hall in a solid wave of green. Beneath their feet, the ground trembles slightly. A growl can be heard echoing from the end of the hallway. It gradually grows louder as the source approaches- from this distance, still only a blob of red.
  4. "This cube," said Melanie simply. "And- should the arrangement prove profitable- many more to follow."
  5. All the red bugs imploded in splashes of brilliant red, spraying all over the group. For a moment, there was silence. And then all the green bugs began to chirp in unison, a loud and blaring alarm.

    "Oh, I know exactly how I got here," said the man grumpily. "Just as clueless to you as to why, unfortunately..."

    There's a loud pop as a man stumbles into the world in a flash of blue light. "Shadows," he muttered. "That wasn't supposed to hap... pen..." He trailed off as he saw the others. "Well," he said. "This is a happening place, I see."
  8. "Indeed," said Melanie, shooting a scowl at Psydr before he could cut in. Kemos smiled at that - he didn't like the man's overbearing attitude either. Melanie continued. "We have an offer I think you'll find... intriguing." She gestured to one of her colleagues, who pulled out a cube about a centimeter in each dimension. It was colored a metallic black, and radiated destructive energy.

    The earth trembles slightly.
  10. The bugs land on her, stinging her all over.

    The wind blows, waiting.
  12. The bugs dodge the blows for the most part, although one that didn't react fast enough is turned into a splatter of red on the wall.
  13. The bug buzzes angrily and stings her. Red bugs weave and swarm around the group, stinging wherever they can.
  14. Which is not very long, as X's avatar has enough to deal with already.
  15. X's avatar wondered what all the fuss about the 24th letter was about.
  16. It was midnight in T'Telir. A time for dealings in the dark, indeed. The Awakened statues seemed more menacing than ever in the half-moonlight. All too easy to imagine one coming to life and cutting you in half before you even had a chance to respond... But that was unlikely. Unless one knew the key phrase, the statues were just that: statues. Far more dangerous were the figures lurking at their feet, waiting. - Kemos gasped as the phantom frigidity of the Void was replaced by the warmth of the tropical atmosphere. It was partially a gasp of relief. He didn't think he'd ever quite get used to long-distance shadow travel. And to think, the true masters could travel between universes. Besides him, Brezon snorted. Kemos sighed internally. More than likely, Brezon would grow into one of those masters. Which was fine. Kemos was perfectly happy with his position as leader of the Ashborn. Besides, they couldn't all be prodigies. His sour thoughts were cut short by someone calling his name. He turned to see Melanie hurrying towards him with a smile on her face. "Kemos!" she said. "You managed to convince Brezon, I see." Brezon snorted again. "He should not need me," he said in a voice full of irritation. "He is sect leader. Should he not be capable of shadow-travel?" Melanie looked like she was about to say something, but her response was cut short by Psydr, leader of the Myrkaal. "Cease the chatter," he said authoritatively. "The Curse of Death comes." @Enter a username
