Topic: The Great War
Subject: Hirokuun.


Hirokuun had heard the approach of the other stranger. Her opinions on war were childish and inexperienced. The life of grunts was expendable... and should be exercised as such. War was a necessity in order to offset the law of the world. However, he was about to argue that point when Lakota took off.

"Meet me later, and we will discuss this. Your opinions are naive, and I will explain how. Later."

With that, Hirokuun took of at a good paced run to keep up with Lakota. He was beginning to fatigue slightly, but only slightly. He would be quite good for another hour or two. He would keep pace with this Lycanthrope.

"I cam here looking for something... an unbalance. I don't know what, but it happened, and I sensed it. I had nothing better to do, and no family, so I decided I might as well come."

Topic: The Great War
Subject: Well, I see your point...


Hirokuun chuckled softly as he ran beside Lakota. War... we need it. As much as people think it's a bad thing, it's necessary. he thought.

"Lakota, I see your point of view where you wish to have no war... but it's a necessity. War is chaos. And chaos disrupts law. In order for our world to be habitable, we need a balance of both. If there is no war, then there is no chaos. If there is not chaos, there is a dominance of law, and unbalance. If there is unbalance... there is no hope."

Hirokuun shakes his head, letting his braid dance around his body. "At least, that is what I have been raised to believe. And I see no reason for it to not hold true."

Subject: Alright...


"Nazarath came to you eh? Well, Nazarath is quite the one to come to you in a dream. It must be something good. Though, like you, I find it difficult that healing and peace can be found in a place of war."

"What is this training for exactly? I had not heard of any territories out for attack. Am I out of the know for certain things?"

Topic: The Great War
Subject: And so we're off.


"Don't worry about me keeping up. I've been running for quite some time. My training revolved around it."

Werewolf... I knew something was wrong. They've plagued me long enough... But, at least it's better than another elf. She won't recognize my tattoos.

Hirokuun took off with a run. She ran fast, but it wasn't unmanageable. "So Lakota, you're a werewolf eh? How did you end up here, teaching these young ones?"

Topic: The Great War
Subject: Hehe, and so it's done.


As Lakota kicked him away, Hirokuun rolled and kicked off, sending himself into the air, then righting himself, and landing on his feet. He stands in a neutral stance and almost calls for a truce when he sees something strange with his opponent. She seemed... feral? Was that the right word?

This does not bode well. Be ready for anything Hiro... Hirokuun moved his hands in an elaborate circle and bringing them down in fists by his side. This was his power stance. He let out a breath, and you could see it form a slight mist.

However, he needn't do anything. His opponent then seemed to get a grip. Hirokuun acknowledges her salute, then flips out of the ring in a rush to grab his Dual Bladed Naginata as she addressed her class. Then, he caught up with Lakota, a stone sculpted face, but a gleam of respect in his eyes.

"Mind if I join you? I believe there is somethings we should discuss."

Topic: Diabolic Genesis-Origins of Evil
Subject: Well then.


"I remember the child Lacey, but I was under the assumption that there should've been more... that house looked rather large."

"Oh, and just in case you didn't figure it out, what with all that prejudice against you from Chiron, I have nothing wrong with it. Nor with the fact you tried to hide it. You're as dark as I am pale. And everyone has their own secrets that they don't wish to tell."

Topic: Diabolic Genesis-Origins of Evil
Subject: Since the jumping up never happened...


Xavier looked at Ardulace with an embarrassed look on his face, and sheepishly said, "Yeah, okay. I'll admit, we haven't seen more than the first room. But, really, that wasn't too terrifying. Speaking of which, I'm not sure if you mentioned this before, and perhaps I just forgot. But what did you see beyond those doors?"

Topic: The Great War
Subject: Crash bang boom.


Hirokuun smiled as Lakota fell to the ground around him. His arm was still around Lakota's waist. He grunted slightly as the two of them hit the ground. But with his hand in that position, he had a perfect tactic. It wasn't the most honourable tactic, but it was effective.

He took his pointer and middle finger from each of his hands and jabbed them in to Lakota's kidneys. He braced his neck for the shock that was to go through it as she recoiled from the uncomfortable sensation. But after this, he would call it an end... he had had his fill.

I kinda left you high and dry on that... I included a brief description in my post.

Oh, and good to have you with us

Topic: The Great War
Subject: Beauty.


A good way to start... Rather brutish, but effective. Hirokuun thought to himself. From where he judged, she was aiming at his stomach. His stance however, was prepared for that such attack. As she approached him he pivoted and moved his stomach out of the way.

However, he had been slightly incorrect in his judgement, as she had been aiming at the shoulders, not the stomach. He felt her make contact with the shoulder that hadn't moved as quickly. Off balance slightly, but still out of the way, Hirokuun backed up.

"A commendable effort. Now, it's my turn Lakota."

With a surging push, he leapt forward, with the hand that had been pressed against his back coming around aiming for a grab on the legs, and his other arm reaching for the upper body. This was proving to be an interesting fight already.

Topic: Diabolic Genesis-Origins of Evil
Subject: Ears are beautiful things. -edit.


Xavier listened as Chiron spoke. Shrugging and nodding, he says, "Eh, sure, why not. House or no house, it doesn't matter. But it's true what you say... from all the things that have been said about that house, it wasn't really scary at all... I could be scarier than that. There's gotta be something that we missed..."

"But, I'll agree with you. Going back to the governor's manner would be a good idea. I still need to hold up his part of the promise that he made to me..."

Topic: Peradyse Lost
Subject: Alexandria.


"Some tea for myself would be wonderful. It helps to calm the senses, and relax the mind. Something that I am in need of right now."

Alexandria smiled though, a bright and cheery smile. "And Devon, I admire your compassion. Coming to give us your company, if only for a while, was a very generous offer, and I thank you for it."

Which is the most powerful elven ruling house?

Topic: Into the Hollows
Subject: Now there's a request.


Velox smiled, taking his attention away from the pirate, and towards the woman who addressed him. "Now there's another request that the great Velox... myself... can not deny. A lively tune to lighten the soul... I like the way you think."

"Now, I shall play you the dance of the Valkyries. An epic tale of soldiers who are unafraid to die in battle. I met a few Valkyries... bested them in a mix of combat and wit. Because I am the great Velox."

And with that, Velox begins to pluck the strings in a slow manner, but he steadily picks up the speed, to the point where his hands were a blur. However, he was playing it effortlessly.

Topic: Diabolic Genesis-Origins of Evil
Subject: What now?


Xavier's eyes widened at the food that came to Satya... and he hurriedly ordered the same. It looked delicious. He became very focused on the food... At least that's what he looked like.

Xavier was really listening intently to the conversation going on between all of the others. He would be able to pick at everyone's weak points in due time... He could do it. Knowing how to talk to a person was the key to getting what you wanted from them.

However, at the mention of the Dragon God, Xavier coughed a bit, choking on his food. He spluttered. "What? Tiamat? How is that creature involved in this?"

Topic: The Great War
Subject: Well Lakota.


"Well Lakota, it's nice to meet you. I am honoured to make your acquaintance. And to tell you the truth, I'm going to guess a humans age now. That boy looks developed. I'm going to guess he's reached adulthood, perhaps even passed it. So, if I'm not incorrect, adulthood is roughly 18 or so. Your guess of ten times was only slightly off then... I am only 96 years of age."

Hirokuun was carefully taking this time while stalling to observe the woman. Her eyes kept moving, alternating between his face and his chest. She knew how to fight, and had good instinct, but his tattoos seemed to be distracting her. They weren't intended for that, but they seemed to have that effect.

"As for myself. My name is Hirokuun Tokugawa, of the Tokugawa house in Elevera. My father, until recently, was the king of the realm, and my mother has taken over now as ruler. I am still young by elvish standards, but I have learned enough."

Hirokuun added a small bow at the end of his introduction. Resuming his stance, he looked at his opponent. "Well, on your mark Lakota."

Topic: The Great War
Subject: A new challenger has appeared.


"Well, not necessarily what I had in mind. I hadn't intended to do anything drastic. No insult would've been given, I assure you. However, if you wish to take his place, then I am up for a challenge. Though your guess about age is somewhat off... Unless I miss my mark. Though I would not believe that boy to be 9 years old... He is too large for that."

Hirokuun circled around, observing the woman in her fighting style. He hadn't been counting on this.

"Isn't it proper to first introduce ourselves first? I had been intending on introducing myself to the young warrior there. However, since you're challenging me now, I believe you should do so yourself."

Subject: Nah.


I'm not like that. I give applauds decently, and smites if the person's gone for WAYYY to long without notice.

Posted on 2009-05-27 at 04:34:35.

Topic: The Great War
Subject: Alright.


Hirokuun smiled. He stepped into the ring and pulled his hair out of his shirt, letting the long blue braid flow freely. Sliding down, bending his knees slightly, he sticks out one hand with his fingers together, and holds the other one tight against his back, the way he had been taught, and was informed was special to Elven nobles. This human didn't have a chance. But he wasn't interested in this one.

"Well then. On your mark."

Topic: The Great War
Subject: My weapon?


Hirokuun stroked his weapon with each hand. "Leave my weapon eh? Well, it seems only fair in a wrestling match. However, who can guarantee the safety of this weapon? Not many people see something like this everyday."

Hirokuun strode over to the one who had addressed him. "Will you watch it?" He said, with a snide smirk on his face. Leaving his double bladed Naginata on the ground in front of the dwarf, Hirokuun flexes, and takes a few deep breaths. Suddenly, he does a backflip from a standing position, and lands gracefully on his feet.

Cracking his neck, he asks. "Ready?"

Topic: The Great War
Subject: Dam...


Hirokuun silently cursed as the woman walked away from the building. She was interesting... He knew that he had to make a quick ally for to her... or else. Maybe... they didn't look elvish. Chances are they weren't well versed in current elven news... such as his own. He would present himself as prince of his house... which he had been, until a while ago.

Hirokuun smiled. This was going to be easier... in theory. Well, time would tell. He was close enough to the ground now... Fifteen feet was easy. He pushed off of the building, now that nobody else was there. The two people had left. There was just the woman and her class. Well. This should be fairly simple.

He took his dual bladed Naginata out of it bindings on his back, and placed it across his shoulders, in a calm manner. His eyes briefly flitted about, taking in every angle. His facial tattoos weren't indicative of his penalty to non educated ones. He simply had nice body art.

Hirokuun walked on up to the class and said, "Wrestling? Mind if I watch? Or even better, take on this young man here who seems eager to wrestle?"

Topic: Into the Hollows
Subject: He's egocentric... don't worry, he's a nice guy.


Velox moaned inside as the unruly man approached him. He wasn't looking forward this.

As the man gave him an ale and introduced himself, Velox replied. "Thank you... I guess. I'm more partial to fine wines myself, but since you are buying something for the great Velox, I will accept. I know it's a pleasure to meet me. It always is. I assume that you've heard of me before, correct? That is why you chose to test my talents?"

"Typically when someone suggests not talking about something, they have something else to discuss in its place."
