Topic: Nomachron: Tides of Time
Subject: Janus


Janus cast an eye over the room, and even in the midst of disaster, could not help feeling disappointed. After so extraordinary an event as being magically summoned to an unknown place, he had hoped that this back room would be equally grandiose. Shelves lined with magic components, old scrolls and tomes in abundance. Instead he appeared to have come across....

"A common wine storeroom." Janus grimly smiled, one of them more more somber expressions he ever wore. "Glad not to have wasted my time. Although I suppose it was necessary."

From behind him, a voice. "“The ceiling is beginning to burn. If we do not make haste, we shall be immolated within these walls. That man gave his life to call us to him. Burning to death before we even learn why is a waste of life! Hurry!”

Janus grabbed the nearest bottle to him and turned to face the (as he then saw) Knight. "No sense in leaving empty handed." Without looking back, he accompanied the knight, and the later arriving elf back through the building and out, as quickly as possible.

Subject: Super Smash Flash 2


I am a huge fan of the Smash Bros. Series, and was poking around and found this game, Super Smash Flash 2. I had played the first one, and to be quite honest, it was horrible. But having nothing better to do I decided to try it out. And lo and behold, I have a new favorite flash game. The controls are infinitely better than its predecessor, and I love the non-Nintendo characters that have been added. So if you have the time, check it out, tell me what you think?

Topic: Nomachron: Tides of Time
Subject: Janus


Janus shook his head, trying to rid himself of pain. He rubbed at them gently, then slowly opened them, blinking as his eyes adjusted to the now dim lighting.

It was difficult to make sense of things at first. How could so many people fit in one room? and what was a pack of wolves doing here? He shook his head again as the doubles merged into true bodies. An interesting way to begin an adventure, he thought.

Janus quickly looked around the room. The fire was spreading faster than he'd like, but then, it would be if it was spreading at all. He saw two people trying to clear the way. As he was trying to decide how to help them (for there wasnt much room left) he heard someone call out.

“.....we wouldn’t want to go from the fire into the frying pan. Hey, does someone want to take a quick look down the hall way for another exit?”

Janus decided he would be best for the job. Of those left available, only he and the female, by his judge, were quick enough to get out should something go wrong, and he couldnt let her try something so dangerous if he could do it just as easily. "I"m on it," he replied, not stopping to see if anyone heard him.

He muttered a line and gestured into the air, calling forth a few arcan lights to follow him. He peered down the hallway, looking for signs of a roof collapse, or any other dangers, then began down it as quickly as he could manage.

Topic: Nomachron: Tides of Time
Subject: Janus


Janus possessed a busy mind. He was always doing something, planning something else, while thinking about tomorrow. This was not the case now, however. The bard's full attention was now focused at the task at hand. One false move could bring all to ruin...
"Checkmate," came the voice of the person across the table. Janus smiled. "A good game. You've been practicing, Jonas."
He looked around at the empty stable, his mind beginning to wander....
Jonas was a young lad Janus had met a few years ago, when he had tried (poorly) to cut Janus's purse. The boy was obviously hungry, his clothes torn, and almost darker than his skin with dirt and grime. Janus couldn't find it in his heart to be angry with the boy, and so instead of turning the boy in, he took him to the next tavern, and bought him a meal. Slowly, and under the influence of his first meal in weeks, Janus got the boy to talk. Jonas had come to Torgos with his father, who had hoped that the city would offer a means to to support himself and him son. His father joined the guard, and a few years later, was killed on the job, attempting to capture a common thief. Jonas was left to fend for himself, and had turned to theft when he could find nothing else.

Janus felt for the boy, his own history remarkably similar on some points, and decided to help him. After the meal, he had taken Jonas to purchase a modest set of clothes, then set off to an inn on the edge of the city, ran by an old friend of his. The Traveler's Haven was a smaller inn, but, as the name suggested, did steady business with passers-through. It didn't take much to convince old Garion to accept Jonas as a stable-boy.


From then on, every time Janus came through Torgos, he made it a point to visit Jonas, who was always eager to hear his next tale or song. Soon the boy made friends, and Janus was often coerced into entertaining them. Not that he minded.

Today however, it was just the two of them over a chessboard. Janus broke out of his reverie to hear Jonas pleading. "You said you had a new story if I won. I won, so tell me!"

Janus smiled. He would have told the boy anyway, but no need for him to know that. "Very well. Quiet down a bit, for this might be the best story I've yet told you." The boy instantly was silent and attentive, leaning on the table to keep from tipping off his stool.

"Far to the east of here, there is a village near the mountains," Janus began. That was as far as he'd get this time around.

Light flashed in the room, and a hole rent the air open in the stall next to Janus. Jonas, quite understandably, panicked at the sight, diving into one of the other stalls, and peeking around the corner.

Electricity arced through the air around the portal, for that is all it could have been. Inside Janus could see what appeared to be an empty room, and a shadowy figure. Suddenly his mind was filled with a voice, loud even though there was no sound. It seemed to echo inside his head, drowning out all else.

"Janus Shylor, your life as you have known it changes this night. Nomachron is in great peril, and you are all that stands at the brink of her destruction, capable of bringing her salvation. I implore thee, for whatever reasons may guide your step, enter now the portal before you, accept your part in the world’s destiny, and carve out your own."

"Janus?" Jonas' voice came from behind, fearful but inquisitive. Janus looked over his shoulder and smiled, having already made his decision. "Go tell Garion I'm stepping out, and ask him to take care of Vrail for me." He saw the concern on the boy's face as he nodded. "Cheer up. When I get back, I might have an even better story for you." With that, Janus grabbed his bag, which was never far from him, donned his gear, squared himself, and slowly walked through the portal.

Topic: Iron Age, Beginning of an Era.
Subject: Aiden Stormbringer


Aiden wore a half-mad smile as he gazed at the building. His nostrils flared as the smell assaulted his nose. Something seemed familiar, but he couldnt place it. He shrugged still, grinning, then turned to answer his comrade. "I myself have no torches.. but I should think the lantern would be beneficial even if the others do have them."

He closed his eyes, drawing into himself, as he again spoke the words he had repeated so many times. He kept his voice low, almost inaudible.As he spoke, a blue circle, ringed with arcane markings and glowing slightly appeared on his forehead, slowly revolving. He finally raised his voice near the end."Lusa vundr! Sydgoraa!" Out of the air appeared a steel-blue serpent, as long as Aiden's armspan, with a similar mark on its own head. It slowly coiled itself around Aiden, then climbed down him, waiting patiently on the ground.

Ignoring any reactions the others might have had, he carefully steps through the door, after making sure his supplies were secure and present in his robe, Sydgoraa at his heels.
