@yubel@
Nodding, she lead her down beneath the castle's walls, into a massive dungeon, where roars and shrieks of mighty monsters all around could be heard...
...including from one particular cage, which was being rattled by a gigantic, undead dragon that seemed intent on tearing anything in its path to pieces.
@yubel@
"Never mind the Berserk Dragon... Ha Des' pet. The real weapon is further within..."

@nemain@ She walked by and turned to the cage. "Oh my...he'd certainly rival some other dragons we have." She turned back and followed.

@yubel@
"...it's not even a true dragon..." Yubel mused, as she shook her head. "...but I digress... we're here." And she came to a stop, before looking up...
...where a massive amount of chains was keeping a gigantic figure in place; slowly rumbling as it seemed to be resting...
@raviel@
...but even resting, the figure looked as menacing as could be.
@yubel@
"...Raviel, Lord of Phantasms." she hummed. "One of three Sacred Beasts."

@nemain@ She gasped when she saw the massive beast. "...even when he's resting I can sense immense strength..."

@yubel@
"...obtaining his other two counterparts would be beneficial... but I have a feeling that it won't be as simple as retrieving Raviel was." Yubel mused, before she glanced at Nemain. "...now... I heard you mention something about experimenting before. Care to elaborate?"

@nemain@ She looked over. "Oh, that...just a hobby of mine." She rose her crystal skull. "I'm facinated by bones...they're quite sturdy. All I wanted to do was examine them from the bodies of fallen warriors...but of course, the knights frowned upon that."

"...hm." With a slight hum, she rubbed her chin a touch. "...I happen to have a similar hobby; studying old lore, creating new things from it... perhaps we could pool our minds together for some projects?"

@nemain@ "Is that right?" She smiled. "Hm, I'd like that. Even among the Shadow Knights, most people tend to be a bit anti-social about things like this."

@yubel@
"...I see." With a slight hum, Yubel wandered down a different hallway. "Perhaps you'd like to witness one of my... secret projects?"

@nemain@ "Secret project?" She sounded interested, as she followed.

@yubel@
The two of them entered a certain room, which Yubel made sure was locked as Nemain entered after her. "...not even Ha Des is aware of this... so I would ask you to keep this from him. He may get the wrong idea..." she spoke...
...as the Skull Witch would hear the rattling of chains, metal bars quivering and a guttural groan, along with a stench that could wake the dead.

@nemain@ She looked around, and gasped, putting a hand to her nose and mouth. "Dear me....what in the world is here...?"

@yubel@ She didn't say anything, but she pointed towards the other end of this room... and there, a hideous sight would befall Nemain.  @yubel@ "...tell me..." Yubel mused, as she wandered throughout this chamber; gathering some notes as she didn't heed the rotting carcass rattling its chains one bit. "...do you believe in life after death?" |
|
|

@nemain@ "!" She looked stunned. "I...suppose so..." She stared at it for a while.

The creature noticed her, and let out another groan whilst thrashing against the chains.
@yubel@
"...good. Then explaining this shouldn't be complicated." Yubel mused, before she took a seat to write down some more notes. "I seek someone who passed away long ago... someone I know will have returned to this world in some fashion. Whilst I've looked for him, I began to ponder... not everyone is as fortunate to be guaranteed a second shot at life." She glanced at the rotting creature. "...it's rather crude, but... I believe that hidden within this hideous being's core lies the answer for a second life."

@nemain@ The witch stepped away from the monster. "Are you sure?" She looked over, very interested. "A chance of a second life...lies within that creature?"

@yubel@
"...the data I've gathered would suggest so." Yubel mused, as she looked over her notes. "...though I have not yet had the chance to test this thesis out... the opportunity to ressurect someone hasn't presented itself to me, yet."

@nemain@ "I see..." She came over. "I'm very interested in that idea myself. My clan was wiped out, and we were brought back to life. So I'm sure it's not an impossible idea."

@yubel@
"...I'm sure it's possible..." Yubel mused, as she kept writing notes. "Look around, if you please. You may find something of interest within here."

@nemain@ She nodded. "Thank you." She took a short stroll around the room, looking around in awe.

She would find numerous cabinets filled with information on just about any kind of monster, spell and trap one could imagine; strategies on how to best counter certain factions, standard-issue equipment, optimal division of forces, the works. Yubel sure seemed studious of the world they lived in...
...though one cabinet in particular was locked tightly shut.

@nemain@ "?" She came up to the cabinet. "Hm, seems she has a lot of secrets..." The skull witch was curious...

@yubel@
"That cabinet is off-limits." she spoke without looking away from her notes. "Only I may access it."

@nemain@ "Oh!" She jumped and looked over. "Sorry, sorry...does that pertain to your quest as well?"

"...yes." Yubel mused, as she kept writing.

@nemain@ "I see..." She stepped away from the cabinet, it seems Yubel doesn't want to speak of it. "...well, you seemed to have studied this world quite a bit. Moreso than my clan, it seems."

Post by YolkaEd on Jan 17, 2013 14:58:38 GMT -5
@yubel@
"...I have had time to study the workings of this world." she mused, as she looked over at Nemain. "All to ensure that my quest isn't hindered by any... unforeseen circumstances."

@nemain@ "Unforeseen circumstances you say..." She blinked. "Well, I could understand that. We're a bit weary ourselves."

@yubel@
"...after returning from the dead, that should be obvious." Yubel mused, as she glanced over her notes a touch. "...hm..." She then glanced at Nemain. "...if you would... I've been thinking of recruiting some forces to serve under Ha Des. Could you fetch me a file from the 'Chaos' cabinet? It should be named 'Related', if I'm not mistaken."

@nemain@ "Oh, of course." She went over to the cabinet and opened it, looking it over. "Hm....oh, here it is." She pulled it out and returned.
