Topic: Diabolic Genesis-Origins of Evil
Subject: Ardulace


Ardulace watches, somewhat bemused as Chiron orders the others to keep a close watch on her, then speeds off on his horse. Moments later, Xavier staggers and leaves himself.

Ardulace smiles at Satya and Seluumiel, "Unescorted in a strange town, hmph. Gallantry, it seems, is at a premium in Leaphaven."

Looking around as the small crowd attracted by the return of the boy John to the town dispersed, the priestess feels more than a bit awkward standing pointlessly in the street.

"I know not what Chiron is about, but I warn thee both, if he returns with the town watch or guards of some sort, with the intention of imprisoning me, I shall have to create a disturbance. No innocents shall be injured though some may be frightened. If I am not available afterwards, I hope that thou will convey to them my apologies. For the nonce, I feel no need to loiter purposely in the street. Shall we report to His Lordship, the Governor, or perhaps take our ease in a tavern?"

Subject: Mother and Child reunion


Once there is even the briefest pause in Lacy's tirade Satya says plainly "When I was young I killed one of my peers for calling me an outsider, my mother a whore and my neck better off snapped as an infant. I did not realize how much rage flowed in my blood then. Now I live with that mistake every day, and fear the uncontrollable beast that sleeps dormant in my heart. I was not asked to seek this boy I merely sought redemption for my past. I was not aware that you have all been traveling together for only a matter of hours. I am sorry for acting on misinformation. I was led to believe that they were your friends and comrades. What you say of your actions rings true and you need not fear to be yourself in my presence."

Ardulace listens silently to the woman's story, then replies "I am sorry for thy troubles. Would that I could ease thy burdens. I apologize if I seem churlish, but this day has wearied me like no other has in many a year. I am normally a joyful person, but Chiron Po brings out all the worst in me. Still, I am grateful that thou dost not seek to murder me."

She briefly smiles and watches as the woman moves on, not certain that what she said had come out entirely right. Despite diligent use, she still was not entirely comfortable with the common tongue.

She walked on, each step bringing her closer to town and possibly her doom. She was confident that Seluumiel would speak on her behalf, and that the woman Satya bore her no ill will. Xavier had seemed unconcerned with her change in appearance when she had returned from the dragon's den, though he had been unusually sullen and silent since then. The boy was too thin and pale by far, perhaps all he needed was a hearty meal to set him to rights.

Which left only Chiron. Or more correctly, Chiron and who ever he could poison against her. Therein lay the challenge. It was difficult enough for her alone to overcome the centuries of hatred and mistrust her people had earned, but were her true race to be revealed, and one of her own companions speak out against her... there was little hope for her in such a case.

Still she continued toward the town. Despite placing great trust in Seluumiel and the others, she kept in mind the many tried and true methods she had used to successfully escape similar situations in the past.

"MOM! MOM! I'M HOME!", the child's joyful cries brought Ardulace out of her reverie. She swallows a lump in her throat as mother and child are reunited. Even as she revels in the woman's joy, the shadows of what await her linger at the edges of her mind.

"Anything, anything I have is yours brave travelers for bringing my son home. Thank you, thank you, thank you!" says the boy's mother as she rushes forward to hug each member of the group in turn. Unused to such close contact with strangers, Ardulace steps back, but the boy's mother wraps her arms around her and hugs her fiercely all the same. The acid burns on her back send a fierce surge of pain through her entire body, and Ardulace gasps in pain, wavering a moment before regaining her balance, as she replies to the woman's thanks with a barely audible "Peace and joy be with you."

Taking a step closer to Ardulace Seluumiel once again addressed her in elvish. "Lava sen, ron na'a nessa ar'hoorea. Lye anta tess i'seere ie'ilya estelar, amin gorga tanya lye caele ere'ele'e i'yesta en tanya fea opele."

An expression of great relief washes over her half-elven features, then Ardulace replies, also in elvish. "Lava amin, amin sinta ner," she says somewhat sheepishly. "Tel' nim'ohtar irm ndengin ri' glak amin. Ikotane amin n'uma aut e'a iris, ri amin n'uma kel. Lle kwentr aran en' i opele. Tel' mor'loki quen en he tura. I gorgorath hosti, sai-hosti."

She pauses a moment to let this sink in, then says softly and quite solemnly, "Amin ant usin rato."

Subject: Ardulace


As Ardulace listens to Satya speak, she grows from being merely angry to outright fury. Her eyes ablaze, she seethes for a moment, then by an act of will, draws three deep breaths and masters her emotions. Along with the others she will walk away from the house, but speaks as the group travels.

"All this time? All this time?" she scoffs. "'All this time' has been but a few hours. I met these people this morning. They are not life-long companions that I have deceived, they are not trusted comrades or it seems, even friends. We are comrades by happenstance only. I came here by invitation. Invited by the Governor who sought my help in this matter. Sought by him, because of my reputation, because of the life I have lived which bared the truth of who I am, as thou sayeth."

Pausing a moment, she unclenches her fists. "Ever since I arrived in Leaphaven this morning I have indeed schemed. I confess it. Oh yes. I have schemed and connived with one all-consuming purpose... to save that child." She thrusts a hand out, pointing at the boy. "I have sought to do nothing, but place myself between the evil and the innocent, that the innocent might live. And it seems that my companions have sought only to hinder me. Whenever I urged haste, the others urged caution. When I said let us go forth, they said let us bide a while, when I said said advance, they said retreat. When I went with apparent reckless abandon through the portal beyond the door in that house, I did so with the hope that my actions might force the others to follow me. That my actions might prove more convincing to them than my words had been. But I was wrong. I went forth, and I went forth alone."

"The others, thou amongst them... remained to ponder the writings in a book and decipher a map. And thou did this, knowing full well a child's life might hang in the balance. Take a close look at that boy. He lives. He breathes. I hope he lives in peace for many years to come, to play and to sing and dance beneath the stars and fall in love and father many children and grow old and wise and perhaps if he is lucky, to pass away having known great joy. But If he does so, then it will be because I did not remain to ponder a book and decipher a map. It will be because by an act of what you condemn as foolish and reckless, I went forth and found him. And I stood before a dragon, that was intent upon devouring him, and I convinced it not to."

"Could you have done the same? Would you have done the same? The life you live bares the truth of who you are. It bears repeating. What does the life thou hast lived bare about each of thee? When the time came for each of thee to decide whether to go forth or to remain behind, each of thee in turn..... remained behind. Each of thee remained to bide a while, while I went forth alone. No doubt I was cursed and called foolish and blind for it."

"Since I have joined this group I have sought to do nothing, nothing except try to save that child's life. I have done so with complete disregard for my own safety. I could have dallied a bit longer before returning to you, long enough to resume this false visage, before bringing that child to safety, but I returned to you in my true form, because to delay might have placed the boy in greater jeopardy, and because I thought, mistakenly it seems, that I had earned some place amongst thee, that I had earned ... if not thy trust, than at least enough of thy respect that I would not be condemned and attacked on sight."

"Chiron Po showed me the error of my ways there." She shakes her head. "What a fool I was. I am what I am and I make no apology for it. Who amongst you joined this fellowship only after confessing to the others thy deepest secrets? Anyone? No? No. No one. Not one of thee. I do not hide my identity, only the color of my skin. I hide nothing about what I have done, only how I look. And if I hide that, I do so only because to walk openly amongst people like this.." she sweeps one hand towards Chiron, "would mean my death. I know this because I have tried. In return, I was hunted like an animal. Do none of thee hide secrets? What of thee Chiron Po? Dost thou not hide secrets? Xavier? What of thee? Seluumiel, hast thou no secrets? Or you Satya, is there no shadow that haunts thy past?"

"And now? Now that I have saved this child, and I have warned thee of the dangers that lurk within that house, even now, I am treated like a criminal. I am called a liar. Ask the child if thou will not believe me. Before thou draw thy sword and sweep my head from my shoulders ask the child. And when thou hast recieved his answer, then I ask thee, what is my crime? What have I done that is so foul?"

Subject: Ardulace


Seluumiel nodded as she responded. "You speak soundly," the moon elf paused a moment and smirked, "Do you kill spiders?"

"At every opportunity", Ardulace all but whispers in reply.

Ardulace turned to face Chiron as he walked closer. "Thou might wish to summon thy steed Chiron Po, that it may carry yon child to safety if we are... if need be."

"Woman, drop your disguise. It is useless now. We know your true identity and you can no longer fool us. Whatever scheme you had brewing is foiled, you can stop your tails of dragons and other creatures. The only monster here is you." Chiron had to fight to keep from screaming at the flippant woman. He took a steadying breath and began again, very deliberately. "I do intend to call Prajna to my side. But there are some other things that must be addressed first. I know that you have some magics about you that allow you to alter your appearance, and it would seem that you also have the ability to cloak your evil nature from detection. From what I know of your race, you probably have many, many more things hidden both from view and magical detection. Please, relieve yourself of your weapons and dismiss the illusion masking your true nature. Slowly." On the last word, Chiron partially draws his sword, showing only an inch of steel.

Ardulace stops her examination of her cloak, and shifts her gaze to the paladin. "Stay thy blade Chiron Po. I am not thy enemy."

She then considers her cloak again, and lowers her voice so that the child cannot hear. "One of the precepts of my faith, is to aid the weak and the strong, the grateful and the churlish alike. But thou, Chiron Po....." she heaves a heavy sigh. "... thou test me, truly. If thou disbelieve my 'tales', believe this..." She flings the acid burned cloak on the ground at his feet. "Or if not that, then perhaps a question to the child will suffice to ascertain the veracity of my 'tales'."

"As for this visage, I know not what tales of my people yon child may have heard, but I am certain he has suffered enough fright this day, and I will not willingly inflict more upon him by revealing myself. The truth of the matter is known to all present, and that will have to suffice."

She pauses for a moment, keenly aware that the house may re-appear at any moment. She calls out, "Seluumiel, come relieve me of my weapons, lest Chiron die of fright."

She then turns back to the paladin, "Know that I do this only that we may leave this place the more quickly and take the child to safety."

She'll surrender her weapons to Seluumiel, then turn once again to the Paladin, venom in her voice. "Thou art truly brave Sir Knight, a shining example to us all."

Subject: Not here


Ardulace struggles for a moment to compose herself after the emotional high of surviving the encounter with the dragon. Fighting to suppress a smile she steps away from the where the house was, and towards the others. She watches without comment as the child wakes and looks with adoration upon Seluumiel. "Are you an angel, pretty lady?"


Seluumiel addressed the dark elf in the common elvish dialect, "Greetings Ardulace," she spoke in a cool tone enunciating the woman's name. "There is a great deal we must discuss."

Ardulace returns the moon elf's cool greeting with a polite bow. "Mayhaps that is so, but to do it here and now would be foolhardy. Besides the danger of the dragon, before leaving the house I glimpsed a band of ogres readying for battle. If we do not wish to meet them, we should be well away from here when the house returns. I also suspect that this may be our only chance to leave the area without being turned unknowingly about, as Chiron was before we entered."

She then turns to the Paladin, "Thou might wish to summon thy steed Chiron Po, that it may carry yon child to safety if we are... if need be."

Taking a moment to strip off her acid-burned cloak, she holds it up to survey the damage as she waits for the others to decide on a course of action.

Subject: Rejected!


(OOC: picking up where Chiron shoves her away after the kiss)

Shoved away, by the paladin, Ardulace continues to giggle giddily. The stress of having stood face to face with a hungry dragon and talked it out of its lunch, and the relief of having survived the confrontation as well as rescuing the child, clearly overwhelming her a bit.

As Chiron rises and heads for the door, Ardulace clasps her hands at her breast and lets out a soft, poignant cry of mock dismay, "Oh! A pox on the cruel and fickle hearts of men."

She then climbs to her feet, dons her Hat of Disguise, if not to preserve her own life, then at least to confuse Chiron a touch more, assumes the familiar half-elven visage she has used for so long, and steps out of the house with the others.

Should Chiron make any hostile move towards her, she'll use the cleric spell Command, and order him to "Stop!", then say "Stay thy blade, Chiron Po, I am not thy enemy."

(OOC: If neither of those are sufficient to halt his attacks, she'll defend herself as best she can physically, and when the opportunity presents itself, cast Hold Person on him, and only him).

Subject: It had to be you


Ardulace watched the strange woman carry the child outside, then found herself suddenly, but not really unexpectedly slammed to the floor.

Sprawled on the ground next to the paladin, she sighs as she thinks to herself. You knew it would be him, honestly, you knew. The others would know it was you, but you knew he wouldn't.

Rolling over to face the paladin she could not help but laugh at the absurdity of the situation. Smiling at him, her pale violet eyes ashimmer she says "Why... Chiron Po! I did not even suspect that thou cared!" She then leans forward and plants a warm, soft, wet kiss directly on his lips. "But subdue thy passions for the nonce, and let us attend to the business at hand. And in the future, thou may find that I will respond more to a gentle caress than to a flying body block."

She will then attempt to climb to her feet, and check the door through which she just came to see if the dragon is following her. She will extend her hand to help Chiron up if he is still on the floor.

Subject: To arms


With the unconscious child draped in her arms, Ardulace had one hand on the latch of the door when the dragon's acid splashed her back.

Letting forth an involuntary scream of pain, she shoved the door open and burst through. Her true race no longer hidden she knew the others would see a drowess coming through the door and would not recognize her in the form she now wore, but she felt certain the would recognize her voice.

Seeing the others in motion, and seemingly all coming at her at once, she called out "To arms! Something wicked this way comes!"

Hooking her heal behind the door, she attempts to slam it shut. Then rushes forward to lay the child on the table.
"Guard the door and ask me no questions! A dragon, its soul as black as its skin lurks beyond!"

She will examine the child to determine if he yet lives. As she uses her own cloak to wipe away any acid that has splashed on him, she intones a prayer to Eilistraee beneath her breath, "Merciful mother shield this innocent from the evil that abounds." She then casts Cure Light Wounds on the boy, before casting it again on herself.

Seeing no child in the room, and no other exit besides the archway, Lacey continues through the archway without even breaking stride.

Satya: "I have spent my short time of imprisonment investigating this room. It seems as though the child might have come through here, and from the looks of it, unwillingly. There is a trail of urine that starts here and leads to that door there."


Satisfied that she has detected no traps on the doors, Lacey heads toward the door that the newcomer pointed to, opens it and heads in. She makes no attempt to hold the door open for anyone that may follow, nor waits for them if they do not.

Subject: In we go


Lacey turns her attention away from the doors and to the dark skinned woman with the odd accent. "We are all together, employed by the Governor of Leaphaven. We are none of us kin to this losted child though the child's fate is indeed our quest, yet only part of it. His Lordship the Right Honorable Governor bids us discover the nature of this phantasmic house, and should it pose a threat to Leaphaven, do all that we may to neutralize it."

She nods curtly, "I am Lacey, Chiron Po you have met, these are Seluumiel and Xavier" she says, indicating them each respectively.

Lacey will spare a few moments to look at the items on the table, and unless she notices something remarkable, will leave the matter to Seluumiel.

She returns her concentration to the doors again.


(OOC: Is the lost child a girl or a boy? Has it ever been mentioned?)

Subject: And we're off.


Seluumiel moves toward the house, but seeing Lacey hold back she stops. The elf turns to face the priestess and stares at her for a moment.

"I wholly understand your reticence, but we must not separate. I fear whatever charms this place has will be worsened should that occur. I see no other recourse but to move forward. Let us join the men."


Lacey almost laughs. "You don't." Nonetheless she advances into the house, saying little, merely impatient to get on with the matter at hand. She surveys the room, noting the three doors, and using her Detect Snares and Traps on each one.

Lacey remains where she is, well away from the house, watching what transpires. She will not, as of yet, enter the house under any conditions.

Topic: Diabolic Genesis-Origins of Evil
Subject: Whither goest thou?


Lacey watches Xavier advance towards the house, and cautions him "I detect neither snare nor trap, but assume not that thou art safe. There may be something malevolent that we have not yet seen."

She turns to Seluumiel, seemingly about to ask a question, when she spots Chiron moving away from the group. Before she can speak she sees him flicker and vanish, only to reappear in the other direction. She calls out to him "I suspect we will need all of our talents once beyond the door. Twould'st be tragic indeed to lose a member of this group ere meeting a single foe."

She then turns again to Seluumiel, "What dost thy divinations portend?"


As she awaits a reply Lacey slings her bow across her shoulder, restoring the lone arrow she had out to her quiver, and draws her sword, all the while attempting to keep a close eye on both Chiron and Xavier.

Subject: The foggy dew


Lacey waits for the others to gather if they are not already close by. She looks back and forth between the path and the house, then shakes her head and writes the confusion off to the bizarre effects of the house.

She turns to the others, “Yon pillars and portico seem strangely out of place on so common a dwelling... or rather, so common looking a dwelling. We must needs approach if we are to get a better look. Curse this fog!”

She'll wait for the others to respond. If all are in agreement, then as they approach the house, at a range of about 40', Lacey will stop and cast Detect Snare and Traps on herself (2 pts, 20 rounds duration, 40' range).

Subject: Yay! Let's play thought sniper!


Lacey thinks to herself. "Circling the house is a good idea.. since there was no visible door on the other side. I'm certainly not of a mind to retreat before we have at least found a way to enter this mysterious house."

She continues on her way with Seluumiel and Xavier, keeping under cover when possible, stopping every dozen yards or so to take another look at the house.

She pauses and looks back at Xavier. "Despite thy skill at stealth, the excessive motion of thy flipping about might draw unwanted attention, the the very way the motion of a mouse in a field draws the hawk's keen sight."

Subject: La Casa


Lacey remains as hidden in the woods as the terrain allows while viewing the house, wondering how large it is, what it's made out of, whether there are any visible door.

Turning to the others she says, “Come, let us see what the far side holds.” She will then walk a complete circuit of the house, staying well away from it, but keeping it in view. She'll use the cover of the woodlands as much as possible to keep out of sight.

Subject: We're off


Lacey watches Xavier's odd behavior, but says nothing about it. She tugs her hat a bit farther down over her eyes, and sets off after Seluumiel, bow in hand, arrow nocked.


"'Twould be premature, methinks, to plan too much yet. Let us first reach this house, and see what challenges it presents" says Lacey to Xavier.

Subject: A walk in the woods.


"The way is short, the woods and underbrush afford great opportunity for ambush, as the remaining guards well know, so we would be best off moving on foot, and as quietly as possible, lest we too find ourselves ambushed", replies Lacey.

"If thou desirest to remain atop yon great beast, thou wilt surely make a splendid target for any enemies that lurk hidden upon the way", she says to Chiron.

Whether the group elects to ride or walk, Lacey will keep bow in hand, arrow nocked, ready to loose at the first enemy sighted.

"It would be imprudent at best to rush into this blindly," Seluumiel's cool voice hardened with each word "If you wish to walk as a blind fool then I shall make preparations to perform your funerary rites. All of us wish to save the child, but four corpses will do no good for anyone. I agree with Chiron, we need to gather information before we rush in. We do not yet know what we are dealing with."


"Twist not my words!" replies Lacey, giving the elf a withering scowl. "I said naught about rushing blindly or foolishly."

She turns to Chiron and the others. "The children that have seen this house have already been questioned, for naught. What more dost thou expect to learn from them than what His Lordship, the Governor, hast already gleaned? As thou sayeth, we know not with what we deal, but recall His Lordship's words...an ethereally glowing house that fades in and out, that flashed into existence around a group of children and vanished again along with one of the children. And the children report undead, and guards report ogres. Is that not enough? Do you suspect that the children will know some spell, perhaps that will banish this house back to whence it came? Question the children if thou must, but do it here and now."

She then turns to Seluumiel, and says again, very cooly,"Twist not, my words."

"I recommend that we see the sight of this disturbance as soon as possible," Chiron began, "to collect any clues that might still linger, and then return to here, to Leaphaven, to question those that have seen the house or it's horrors in person and glean what information we might before it fades from memory.

"The first visit to the house should be a brief reconnaissance expedition. I believe it would be folly to actively engage anything we encounter out there before we have learned more about what this thing is and what motives may be behind its appearance here."

Having said his piece, Chiron looks to the others to see if they have anything to add, or a different approach to suggest. "What say you?"



"Do we abandon all hope of rescuing the taken child then? By all means let us go and return, and perhaps we shall have a picnic upon the way. And upon our return, a grand ball to celebrate our success at deftly avoiding any danger" replies Lacey. "A child is taken. Let us go forth to yon phantasmic house and return not lest we have rescued the bairn or have proved it beyond aid."

Lacey rises, ready to go, but not certain if Chiron has yet selected something from the armory.

"I must needs replenish my chirurgeon's kit. Thy courier found me short of unguents, poultices and clean bandages."

With that she waits patiently, taking the time to further familiarize herself with her companions.

Ardulace sits on the edge of her chair, feet crossed at the ankle, hands folded neatly in her lap, waiting patiently.

As the party follows the governor to the hidden armory, she steps up next to Chiron, speaking softly. “I would thank thee, Chiron Po, for thy support in urging haste. Our gracious host seems o'er quick to dismiss all hope of saving yon losted child, yet grieves mightily for his fallen guardsmen. Curious, no?”

At the armoury, Ardulace debates between the wisdom of choosing a weapon for herself or something to add to her healing ability. After a brief glance at Po and Irgune, she decides that they will handle the combat well enough, and opts for more healing. Finding a wand to suit her, she slips it into her pack, and watches to see what the others might pick.

She turns to the Governor, “A grand collection indeed. I pray thy generosity is not misplaced, nor the trust with which thou hast graced us.” She curtsy again, and then waits for the others.
