Subject: what is Areldor doing
Uncle remember I have asked Elyra to stop in when she gets home, maybe you can convince her to do a show in the inn if she is not busy. Also send my love to Father and Mother and tell the Bar Fly boy's that little Areldor has women that are more beautiful that their Wila Petbrook. Well again Uncle thanks again for all your training. That and the goddess has gotten me this far. Now I wonder what is to come. I will do my best to contact you in the future In the grace of the goddess Areldor (Hero of Minerva)
"Who is this Elyra and Wila you mentioned?" the voice came over Areldor right shoulder which startled him. "Diana, I am glad I was finished or I would have messed up...again." He blew on the ink and moved the papers aside on the desk to dry. He knew that a messenger was leaving from the temple here tomorrow and could drop off his letter at the temple in Waltershem on his bi monthly circuit were his Uncle would receive it. Areldor got up and turned to face Diana" Elyra was the elf bard on the adventure I just came from and Wila is women that some guy's at my uncle's tavern would talk about having no equal in beauty and the such especially when they drank... a lot, but the thing was no has ever seen her." "Well here is the scroll case you asked me to get and you need to leave to make it back to the "Toothless Dragon" in time for your performance." "Oh thanks for this and for reminding me" Areldor spoke with a big smile as he made eye contact the half elven woman.
Diana was one of three women that Areldor found to his liking during the last 5 days and she was moving up the list. Diana was 5 years older than the illusionist but both being part elf it did not matter much. He took the case from her and made sure he contacted her hand as he held her gaze. He could see the fire and spirit that he saw the second day visiting the temple. Areldor took the offer of his goddess and looked for a wife. Believing that all his steps are guided by her, this must were he was supposed to find her. The second day back he got started. He did not start on the day he was" kissed by the divine" That day there was too many there who had to meet and sometimes touch the "Hero of Minerva". It was a very busy day for Areldor and very draining by the end late that night returning to his employers free room. The around noon on the following day, Areldor had to have a meeting with Mad Dog about doing some work in the tavern. He explained to Mad Dog that he spent all of the gold on and what had transpired at the temple. Areldor told him that he needed to raise funds to buy rations for the journey he was sending them on. "My Uncle taught me to earn my keep." The burley tavern owner honored the request and Areldor was allowed to put on a show once a night until he left. This would allow the illusionist during the day to spend time studying in the temple library and practice his spells and last but not least some time with one or two of the handmaidens he was drawn too. Then at night he could talk to the other seekers and share any information that he had gathered with them.
The illusionist made sure the ink was dry and then rolled up the three letters and put them in the scroll case, then sealed it. He then again made eye contact with Diana, he handed the scroll case to the green eyed beauty as he asked the question. "Can you please get this to the messenger's office, I really need to get to the tavern early tonight." "Yes Areldor, hope you have a great show tonight. Maybe I will come down and see one show before you leave on your journey." her voice had the sound of future expectation in it and when he handed the scroll to her she made sure to touch his hand. Areldor felt the touch and looked at her face famed by her chestnut brown hair that had a natural curl but was pulled back away her from the face. He broke his gaze he spoke and then he did he gave her a kiss on the forehead "Thank you, Diana and you will see one even if not at the tavern I will one here for you that I promise. I will be back tomorrow." After that Areldor quickly headed for the tavern.

I did not expect anything like this, nor do I really deserve it. Thanks Hammer for being the giver of great gifts and you to Raven for the compliment. I have had to read it three times so far and I am still taking it all in. It tough deciding on this bride thing and still trying to keep the guy humble. Oh the spell I picked is MINOR DARK CHAOS. It will give me another offensive spell against the undead and the living. Thank again Hammer.
Also great post Raven.

Subject: High holy day at last( and Im not late)
Areldor looked at thee alter in the center of the temple. Behind it was a 20 ft mosaic of the goddess Minerva. Beautiful white columns held the spacious roof and on the edges were the housing of the priestess of great goddess. To Areldor this was 4x’s larger than the one at home and there were many booths for trading or buying of books or items of power. The illusionist with his testimony done, stepped down off the dais and it was now noon and time for the followers of Minerva to offer there sacrifice of gold unto the goddess. He placed the 500 gold pieces on thee alter. The High priestess Tabitha gave the invocation then he walked back to a safe distance, then he took the "Fire Wand" , spoke the command and again the great flame came forth as it did days ago against "The Stomper" and consumed the offering and ignited the fire to the alter to start in the giving of gold.
The illusionist kneels before thee alter and said a prayer of thanks to the goddess. Then he walked out of the area to let others bring their gifts on this High Holy Day. He walked to the high priestess and thanked her again for allowing him to speak and light the alter fire. Then he took a moment to recall the events that got him to this point while watching others give there gifts.
One was not required to give a testimony before the offering, but if one wanted they would have to come early and get approval from the high priestess by telling her ones testimony to see if others would benefit from it and that it reflected the goddess character. In order to get there early Areldor had to not partake of to much wine at Mad Dog's banquet. Getting up before dawn he made his way down the streets to the temple. There the illusionist asked if he could get an audience with high priest and then had to wait. It was not until mid-morning that he got to speak to her, but that did not bother him. During that time Areldor got to work on his testimony; shaping it so it was not too long in taking up her time and to be too long at the dais.
When Tabitha the high priestess gave him audience, he processed to give the account of how he and his companions took up the offer of Mad Dog and how on the island they ran into the undead. He pulled out his ash club and with contained enthusiasm retold how surrounded and outnumbered that he (the weakest member of the group) used this club of ash that his uncle gave him and became the most powerful with a only a club, no armor and Minerva's grace. Then he told about how they found the lost treasure, the wand and escaping the beak dragon. At this point Areldor pulled out of the "Fire Wand” and placed on the table. Then proceeded relive the event of helping with the escape from the pirate ship "The Stomper".
Then finally Areldor told her last about the how Mad Dog rewarded the group with 5000 gps and asked if any could go on another adventure to find items for him to combat a growing darkness that was coming and Areldor spent it all on a wand of healing. He did explain to her that against the undead his spells were not of any real benefit right now, but a wand that could mean the difference between life and death in the future fight against this coming evil. The high priest spoke to Areldor a little longer and then gave him the blessing of giving his testimony and that he could use his fire wand to light the alter to start the ceremony.
“I wonder what you are going to do with me on this next adventure.” Areldor thought with a smile on his face as he looked thru the fire upon the face of his god

Subject: Had to reply
Areldor head was still spinning with the trill of battle and the release of magic that he had never experienced. He looked at Jaufre’s shield with the arrows lodged in it, then glanced back at the “Stomper” burning and under siege by the beak dragon. Finally after a deep breath the illusionist was able to calm his mind and gather his wits. It was then Tohmas spoke to him
“My friend….. the use of fire in battle is taboo to my training as a Shaman. Its effect can often do more damage then was intended. You must know that I am sworn to attack any enemy that should bring flame to battle….. The burning of a section of the land for any reason cannot be done even by a friend….. You must use great caution with that device for its misuse will turn Altar’s favor away from us.” Looking down slightly on the Elven Illusionist Tohmas smiled grimly, “I will pray to Atira for guidance”.
“What!!!???” was the first thing that came to Areldor mind. He did not say it, but his face reflected it. He was now trying to understand what the holy man was telling him. “I am trading one enemy for a new one in the future is that what he just said!” Then while he was preparing to respond, Amur came by and defended his actions.
"Hey lighten up” Amur turned to Tohmas, “he just helped save our lives. You should be a little more appreciative.” The boy shook his head as he walked by Tohmas and clapped Areldor on the shoulder.
“Great Job!”
Amur’s comments helped Areldor with the anger that started to build in his thoughts and after the clap on the shoulder he gave Amur hearty smile and a “Thank you” to him. But the illusionist still did not understand what the meaning of his statement. He when over to where Tohmas and Jaufre were at while putting the wand back into his bag all the while thinking of what to say to the shaman. When he got to them, he overheard Tohmas thanking the paladin for his aid.
“Not only are you strong friend, but you are wise. You saw what we did not and your action may well haved saved our lives. Jaufre, you should be called Nemen, He Who Sees. Thank you.”
Areldor then remembered what Jaufre did for him and Tohmas. “That’s why his shield had the arrows in it. He saved my life and Tohmas and all I did was focus on the fire that the wand produced.” After Tohmas finished, with humility in his voice Areldor spoke” Thank you Jaufre. Thank you protecting me and Tohmas. Your god and your family would be very proud of you this day.” And then he gently put his hand on his shoulder. Then the illusionist turned to Tohmas. His anger toward the shaman was gone. The reality of what Jaufre did and the whole day of events had now started weighing on him and began to temper his thoughts. As he looked up to the big man he thanked Minerva for the mercy and grace she had given him and the other Seekers, then said to Tohmas “We have a long trip ahead of us, and in that time maybe you can help me to understand this fire taboo.”

“Great Minerva!” that was all that came out of Areldor when the fireball crashed into his ships foe. He did not expect this, but he also did not know what to expect either. His exclamation has the sound of joy and terror. Seeing the impact of the and how ravenous the fire had become eating the mid deck and the mast it was as if not just fire but Hell was being released.
All this occurred after Tohmas called upon his god to create a wind pushed their ship forward and seemed to slow all advancements and attacks of “The Stomper”. Then seeing the great fortune that was given to Capt. Crayfish, he turn and ramming their foe. . “We have made it this far with your help Minerva, please get us all the way home. “That is when Areldor aimed and spoke the command.
There he was wide eyed, with his mouth somewhat open just staring at what he just unleashed. The only thing that broke Areldor his gaze was a shield that crossed into his vision that was carried by the Jaufre. As Areldor turned his head to the paladin he did not care what Jaufre was trying to do but responded with “Did you see that!!”

I am waiting until they are at least 50 yard out. Since I do not know what is coming out of the end of this thing and how many charges, I want to make sure that if some weak comes out it will not hurt anyone and I will have time to do something else. But if a 4hd fireball comes racing out I want to be sure I hit what I'm aiming at.

The illusionist quickly moved to the rear of the ship, to get a better look at their pursuers. "Pirates" Areldor said to himself shaking his head with a chuckled. "This is a has been very busy day." It was very evident that Capt. Crayfish knew who was in pursuit and wanted to get as distance as possible. The crew was doing their best but the wind was helping the foe.
Areldor looked at the ship and started to think about what he could do. Then his hand reached down into his bag to lay upon the "Fire Stick". " Thank you Minerva, this gift will help get us back to our employer and I in time for your high holy day." Then turning to find Elyra and then spoke jokingly " Elyra! What was the command word for this thing again."
Areldor is going to use that new wand when the Stomper becomes a true threat to us.

I like some of the old live action. Just watched Davey Crockett and the River Pirates with my 8 year old. Brings back memories when I would watch Wonderful World of Disney on Sunday nights. Also the Love Bug and 20,000 Leagues under the Sea. Both 20,000 and Davey Crockett have some fun songs in them. But this is just my 2 cents.
