Subject: Snakes, Why did it have to be Snakes?



Silvara scrambled back to Zora and yells "Back up and keep backing up. Get them spread out and kill the first ones that come closest, and heave the bodies back at them if you can. Use that touch to wave them off. We need to find some rubble we can set on fire to drive them off."

Drawing her sword Silvara hurries back and passes Zora's shield back to her preparing to fight the snakes as they approach.


Zora takes up her shield and does what Silvara suggested. She backed up, moved the torch to her left hand and drew her blade, (Quick Draw.) To twist an old saying "the quick and the dead", those that attacked first died. As Silvara pointed out move to keep them spread out and only have to face a couple at a time.

"If needed we could go outside until the spell wears off." Zora calls out.

Years of training to fight the enemies of Cormyr, and then more years to learn to fight the enemies of Tyr, and now she was fighting snakes. All the dreams of valor and honor is service to her family, country and Tyr were now belittled as she face snakes. Not that she discounted them as unworthy advesaries, but they were not a opponent that one could boast of defeating. Zora was not vain or boastful, far from it, but there, in the back of her mind she still held her childhood dreams of deeds she would accomplish, and the victories she would participate in, and this battle did not fit in those dreams.

Dreams aside, for Zora was of a more practical nature and the snakes were a menace to deal with so she focused on picking out the triangular heads of vipers, she believed the spell could only summons creatures relative to the area she hoped that there were none of the cobra types in the mix, as they perfered much warmer climes, but as Silvara had said, if it was coming at them, it was to be killed.

"Can you get some oil out?" We can start a line of fire and then add things to it.

Zora moves the torch to inches above the floor and moves it back and forth, her blade is low and ready to strike

Subject: Elessarae




Elessarae races down the mountain after the Ogre, She remembers Geim had gone down the trail a bit and hoped the Dwarf would be able to stop the Ogre. If not it was a race to down him before others were alerted. Sword in hand she chased the creature down.

One thing is for certain the Sylvari would have to be warned that this vast array of enemies was right over the first range of hills from their lands. So many would die if they boiled over the hills and into Silvaria unwarned. Elessarae could not let that happen. First she hade to stop the ogre and then they would have to erase all signs of then having been there.

All her training came into play as she ran, one eye on the enemy and one eye to the ground where she would put her feet. It was a trick they were taught. One cannot be complacent when running over broken ground, a slip or fall would mean disaster. The fate of Sylvaria hung in the balance.

"There are not enough chairs to plug up all the holes. If we crawl on the floor we might just have to plug up the holes in the lower foot of the walls. Then, again, it could be all a ruse as I do not see any moldering bodies or skeletons about."

"I know that is not much help, but I am not one to give expert advice on the matter."

"Gads, it might go back to what I said in the first place. Run the gauntlet. I mean if these holes allow for shooting things out of then maybe if we run fast we can ge by them before they fire. Consider the time that the traps have been useless, they could be corroded, broken, or unable to work anymore."

Zora lifs her shoulders, "Sorry, I just am not knowledgeable about such things."

“Acknowledged, E-025,” Lt Dixon replied before initiating protocols to secure the line and muting the comm-channel, “Stand by.”

Arriving at the FC station, the Captain placed one hand on Dixon’s shoulder and used the other to free the holding comm. channel. “MacTavish,” he said simply, “Wha’s on yer mind, Centruion?”

There was no way to make this any easier so Sienae just started.

“I am sure that were we the number one suspect,” there is a lengthy pause. "I will speak for the three others with me and place my life and honor in your hands that they had nothing to do with the loss of your ship.” Again a pause, “As you know there are many on your side and ours, and both of our enemies, that would not want any sort of mutual relationship between the Federation and the Romulan Star Empire. Unfortunately, I can not deny the Romulan factors were not involved in the sabotage of you ship. I was given an in-house warning that the Tal Shiar were not happy with the Navy agreeing to the loan of two cloaking devices to the Federation.”

Sienae took a deep breath, dreading a fiery explosion of tortured English. A bone chilling silence lead her to go on.

“I was thinking one much of the samye lines as you team as Lt Shiarrel Pardek acomcluded that the ship was sabotaged, after reviewing data from the ships download.

“Two of my surviving scientists were in engineering on 09.03 from 1100 hours to 1200,” she refrained from saying the day the Cerberus exploded, “doing a level one diagnostic and the completing a full report of the test. I asked my people if they had seen anything that could be called suspicious activity. Here is what she reported. As I taped it, and all conversation on board since we entered the ASRV.”

Sienae activated her PADD and Shiarrel’s voice sounded in the ASRV on replay.

“The only unusual activity was in engineering is this ‘Mr. Stinky’ in Engineering. Everyone, even his fellow crewmates avoid his presence. His odor is most especially foul. He is slovenly and looks like he sleeps in his uniform, though no one seems to pay much attention to him except to hurry by him or brush him out of the way. His sort would not have been tolerated in The RSN.”

“I have made of point of watching him every time I was in Engineering. I do know his name is Stan David Stowbreiski. The last time I had seen him was near the warp containment field during our last check/scan on the CD. He had dropped his PADD, and instead of stooping to pick it up as I have seen other humans do, he bent over, putting a hand on the control console by the warp containment cell and exposed the fact that he was NOT clean at all. The other part about that incident that rings odd, is after he picked up his PADD. He gave his PADD a pat with his hand and raised his eyebrows at the crewman who’d witnessed the whole affair in an apologetic gesture. “Jellyfingers,” he is what he said to the other disgusted looking crew member present. Where not the humans the first to coin the phrase Butter Fingers?” These facts are the only items to stand out as odd and unusual happenings on board the ship I have witnessed.”


Sienae clicked the Recording off.

“We questioned one of your security men about the term Jellyfingers and he said all he knew were Butter fingers and Sticky fingers. Take it as you will,” Sienae commented, “At this point that is all I have to report.........”

Suddenly there is a cry, “Look out,” that comes from somewhere on the ASRV and then a thud and a closer cry of pain.”

Just as Sienae finished one of the crewman was moving about the cramped ASRV when he came too close to the Cloaking Device and tripped, sending him head long into the control console where Sienae was sitting. He tried to grab the back of the seat to keep from falling and missed so that his arm slammed into Sienae’s shoulders and then slid down hard against her back and fell.

Over the com Mac could hear a flurry of movement as S’Talon grabbed the fallen man and jerked him up, luckily an easier task in the lighter gravity. At this point no one was talking directly to the captain, but the com picked up noises and converstions going one close to it.

“Sorry, sir,” the crewman offered as S’Talon went to Sienae’s slumped form.

“It’s not your fault son,” came the replied. “Rhiana, get the medical kit.”

"We keep the candlestick," says Zora looking at Silvara's prize. "I have a feeling it might be related to the riddle, the bit about silvery light, what at night means the moon."


After that they head down the corridor until they come to a hall leading to what was marked L-R-Y, There Zora halted and took in the holes and the curtain at the end. "Anyone have gaseous form? Noooo, how about fly, noooo." She knew the questions were retorical.

"Well do we run the gauntlet of spears or do you have some better idea?"

Sienae listens to their proposals and a simple, "Yes, go ahead," set everything in motion.

Sienae on the other hand was doing everything possible not to do anything to cause he back to spasm again, like it did on the jetisoning of te ASRV. Even with the drugs she had taken before they began work on the CD, the acceleration of the ASRV had caused her significant pain. The drugs would ssoon be out of her system entirely, then she would have to be very careful to do nothing to strain her back in any way.

She had had an appointment with the Doctor, as did all the Romulans, where she might finally find some relief from the pain she had been living with. It was a fact that Star Fleet medical personnel were superior that what Romulans had aboard their warbirds. All she had wanted was to be on the way when she presented her medical files to the Star Fleet CMO. All she could hope for now was shielding herself from situtations that triggered her attacks.

Sienae found some relief as she sat on the floor ramrod straight. Then she tackled another problem, it took time and mental diligence to deal with it. When she concluded with a plan of action she started to rise. S'Talon was there and offered an arm to the Centurion to get up. If anyone really watch the proceediing, they would have seen that S'Talon did all the lifting.

"S'Talon get me a secure channel to Captain MacTavish's ASRV." She settled in a seat at the control counsole and waited.

"The Order of the Dragon's Paw, an apropos name." Zara took a honey cake and held it out to the bear. Truth be told Zara and Dae did cook up the stew from Zara's mother's recipe, but not this night, for Dae's mother had needed a substantial quanity to create a pot of unemptying stew. They warmed the pot for effect, but the stew was serveable is as from the pot, the magic of the pot kept it at the right temperature.

When it seemed all were full of the stew, Zara put on the lid and attached the heavy wire bails so that the lid could not be taken off. She banked the fire for the night and prepared her bedroll.

"Clint if you take a watch then each of us only have to do about 1 1/2-2 hours apiece."

Zara says this while climbing a tree taking up a position in the crook of two major branches to watch over the camp. "Full Great Moon tonight," she commented. The landscape around them was washed in silver with only a bit of red glow coming from their fire.

Subject: Rhiannon MacQueen


Stardate: 2374.09.05
Charon – Docking bay – 22:15 hours

A MACO team double-timed it up the Charon and halted.

“Gunnery Sergeant Rhiannon MacQueen, reporting in with MACO Team Beta bound for duty aboard the Cerberus, via the Charon.” She and her team were in the regulation black MACO uniforms and stood at attention and saluted the Office of the Deck as was proper.

A couple of crewmen turned to look and both revealed their appreciation of what they saw and why shouldn’t they, as her father had said, she and her twin were fine figures of womankind. 6’2” in her stocking feet she was taller that 3 of her team. Junoesque in stature, or one might say an image of Brunhilda, do to their viking ancestry. Rhiannon was fighting fit which only accentuated her obvious feminine curves which the stretch material of the black suits revealed so well. Her glorious head of red gold hair was done in a French braid down the back of her head and then the long braid was folded in half and secured with a clip, simple and utilitarian. Intense aquamarine eyes stared out under the red wings of her eyebrows in a face the was beautiful as well as being charismatic. Added to that was the look in her eyes that revealed a depth of character to those who looked beyond their brilliant cerelean surface, eyes that could go glacially hard or stormy.

“Commander Sisko sent us a message to hussle here, said we were to board immediately. Permission to board and get our stuff stowed. Then I will hie myself off to report into the captain. Has Gamma team reported in?” ”

“Permission Granted, though the Captain is not onboard at this time and Gamma Team has not yet reported in.”

The were a couple of cut off cheers, to that, as she had promised them extra lounge time for beating Gamma Team to the Charon.

“Thank you, Sir, I will report to him later. Now please tell us where we are bivouacked.”

Rhiannon was sitting on her bunk after overseeing the stowing of gear and the placement of her team, when the announcement came over the intercom.

“This is Captain Gavison.” The ship’s overhead barked his words to the whole of his crew. He’d been demanding they sleep aboard ship for the past two days in the hopes that they’d finalize the repairs to the Charon quicker as time had been running out. All personnel should be accounted for. “Report to your stations. We are leaving berth. I repeat: report to your stations immediately. The Charon will be under way in less than fifteen minutes, or I’ll skin the man holding me up.”

Rhiannon frowned, something was up. She decided to wait until the ship was well under way before reporting to the captain. The turbo lift doors opened and she entered the bridge and saluted, “Permission to speak to the Captain.”

At that moment the ship wide com sounded again. “Our sister ship in this mission has gone missing, and we’re going to find her,” he began over the intraship communications. “As of 15:17 hours this afternoon, the Cerberus was reported missing. There has been no communication from her, or any of her crew, since. This ship is now in yellow alert and will remain so until further notice.”

Rhiannon stopped dead for a moment she could have been carved out of stone as her eyes turned inward. Brianna, her twin was aboard the Cerberus, for the first time in almost 5 years they would be together again.

The Cerberus missing.

Brianna was missing.

They had been inseparable since birth a birth that happened simultaneously as the nurses lifted them out of their mother’s womb at the same time as she had to have a C section do to their size. Those Brianna Shannon MacQueen and Rhiannon Gwyneth MacQueen had the same time of birth, 2:18 PM on Jan 11, 2350, and that also made them both the Seventh Daughters of a Seventh Daughter. By Scots and Irish folklore, they were fey. Throughout their life there had been incidents of their fey powers, or so it seemed. There were times when they could tell where the other was, or what they were doing, even to what they were feeling. They had a habit of finishing each others sentences. To hear them speak, most would get lost in the conversation as it seemed one knew what the other was saying so their sentences would be unfinished. They were also separate individuals with different likes and dislikes. Brianna loved liver and onions and Rhiannon would leave the house when their mother cooked it. Then there was this connection they had, one that tied them so completely together.

Slowly her breathing returned to normal. Brianna was alive, she knew it.

And my RL twis sister is playing one of the Romulan's Lieut. Rhiana(ree-ah-NAY)Khellian and Brianna MacQueen

BTW When you went to do work on the CD to get a better effiency, and after you did you work you got a 15% better on use of Energy, compared to what your known specs on the device said about energy usage. Energy it was not all your doing. One of the things you would have learned had your meeting with the Centurion happened is the she and her female team members had already gotten it up to 12.4% better effiency. You did not check it out before you did your check after you worked on it. But of course getting it up that much more to 15% was a feat in itself.

Howdy; was just gonna let you know that Brom said that the Charon was docked at a pylon on DS9 before she set out on the rescue, and that yes, Rhiannon and her posse could just walk on board.

"Yes, welcome." The elf child, so she seemed to be stood and beckoned to Clint with a ladle in hand. "The stew pot is still full despite Oko trying to drain it. Lamb stew, my mother's recipe." she pointed to the pot hanging over the fire.

"Your companion is welcome to a bowl full also." she pointed to the beast, unafraid. "It's alright bear, I will not eat you."

It was an odd thing for her to say, but then why had Oso stopped when he finally got close enough to see her. Odd.

She opens a bag hanging from her side, "There I thought I had extra bowls, and even one big enough for the bear." She pulls a regular bowl and then a really big bowl out of the bag that did not look big enough to hold them. "We have fresh bread and butter and honey and cheese, and fruit tarts, I hope that is enough for you."

She starts to fill each of the bowls, ladling lots of the delicious smelling stew into the bowl for the bear. She walked up and handed the two bowls to Clint. "Come sit by the fire, it makes the night cheery."

There is a log that they are using to sit on and the fire was neatly made and banked to produce the most heat with the least amount of wood.

Then Zara filled her bowl again and brings over a tray with the bread, a crock of butter, a hunk of cheese, a pot of honey and about a dozen fruit filled tarts. "There is more if you want, even for you Oko."
