There's a loud bang from outside, and a pillar of smoke erupts from where the transmitter was. A small crater has been formed around, and the Silmith is on their knees, trying to scavenge any components.
The person laying in the grass starts and closes the terrarium holding the flower. He runs around the building to the crater.
The Silmith is shaking their head sadly as they stand.
The person shoulders the terrarium and runs over. "What happened?"
"The transmitter couldn't handle the strain. Either the copper wire was old and bad, or I didn't have enough potatoes; all I can do is hope the transmission was strong enough to reach command."
"Are you okay?" The person smells strongly of flowers and has a pale green skin.
"An explosion as weak as this could not kill me; plus, I was standing several feet away."
"Just making sure. What is a "Transmission?""
"A radio wave that can reach distant places; usually it carries a message."
"A message." He looks more confused. "I just wanted to make sure there were no fires."
"This one blew up because I needed it to reach far beyond what was safe."
"Are you trapped here?"
"Yes. It is the perils of the job. My main job now is to warn command of the Imperium fleet over this world." Their voice is still completely emotionless.
"Wait. What will happen?" The person starts looking around.
"If command finds out, they will dispatch a war fleet to this world. You need not worry, however; all you would see is a few flashes and meteors in the sky."
"I hope nothing gets hurt."
"The two fleets will fight until only one is left; it is an unfortunate truth that people must be hurt."
The person frowns. He adjusts the terrarium on his back. "What can I call you? My name is Scilloideae, but friends call me Scill."
"My name is unpronounceable to your vocal chords."
"Do you have a nickname?"
"No. However, you may call me Ambassador, or The Ambassador."
11. The weak swordsman clings to his instrument. It is better you have a sword, but death must lie under your fingernails, if need be. Learn death with your elbows, death with your knees, and death with your thumbs and fingertips. It is said death with the tongue is useful, but I find words too soft an instrument to smash a man’s skull.
Nox is downstairs, seeming tired, and looking around for anyone he knows
*Reverse Timewarp!*
Soldaer walks downstairs for the first time in a while, seemingly in a good mood. He quickly spots Nox and makes his way over to him.
Nox looks over "Hello!"
Soldaer smiles, switching to telepathy so they can converse easily. Hello. I'm Soldaer Torrae. Welcome to the Tavern. Who might you be?
(You can call me Nox. And no welcome is needed. Ive been here before) he smiles
Soldaer's expression brightens, and his eyebrows shoot up. Nox?! As in, the Nox that helped E rescue her brother from Joshua?
(You know Enethia? Thats great! So I did return to the right tavern!)
Yes you did! E's here, Kalnor, Mithris...
He smiles widely (Great!! Theyre all the best... And... I could really use their help. How do you know them all?)
Haven't really met Kalnor, but I know he's here. Mithris was one of the first people I met when I got here. E was the first to greet me, went on a trip to Sigil with her, Atemos and Avarice, may or may not have feelings for her. He says with a chuckle. But E is definitely one of my closest friends her at the Tavern.
(Oh, Atemos is awesome too! He gave me a shoosuva) he seems... Slightly saddened about this part (No clue who Avarice is, though. But E is definitely one of the best people I know, too! Her and Kalnor helped me... A lot. Mithris helped me a ton after I got to the first tavern,.also! How long have you been here for?)
About three months now. He says. You're gonna need to wait for E if you want to see her though; she's currently in Avernus, escorting a noble and keeping her safe from an Archdevil. And yes, I do know how out of character that seems for her, but it's the truth.
He tilts is head (Is it Szaren? I know shes usually fine with him.)
Nope, not Szaren, although he is around her somewhere too. A young girl that was kidnapped by someone working for aforementioned Acrhdevil.
(Oh... Does she... Know shes a noble? It... Tends to make her slightly... Well.... In a not great mood)
Soldaer chuckles at this. Yeah, she knows, and yeah, she's not happy about it, but she already gave the girl her word that she'd be safe before E knew, so....
(... E usually tries to keep her word... Do you think theyre alright? Was the girl hurt at all? Did anything happen?) He seems pretty concerned
Soldaer sighs. Last I knew, they are safe, and fine. E isn't the only one with the girl: Lulu and another Drow named Yazrin went with her. E also gave me a mirror so she can contact me if necessary. He actually reaches into a pocket and pulls it out.
Ohhh.... One of her soul mirrors
Soldaer cocks his head slightly. Soul Mirrors?
He nods Yeah! The mirrors she makes that contain her soul and..... He trails off Aaannnnd.... She didnt tell you so I probably wasnt supposed to either.... DangitNox...
Soldaer looks from Nox, to the mirror, back to Nox...This goes on for a while before he's finally able to say something. She...She put her SOUL into this mirror??!!!!
A..... A piece of it.... Shes able to divide her soul into those mirrors and get certain uses from it.... The mirror actually is purely a manifestation of soul... Its literally not een a mirror without the soul, just air...
Soldaer is still trying to wrap his head around the first part. Her soul. In a mirror.......WHY?????
Its an ability she has as part of her powers... Its pretty useful...

Nox hears Soldaer talking to himself a bit. Calm down, it's fine. She knows what she's doing.... He takes a deep breath. Ok, so does this thing work both ways too? Like can we use it to contact her? I think she'd be thrilled to know you're back.

Phantom's voice comes through telepathically to E. Since I have been vetoed by Xorius, may I suggest another capable replacement? I have gotten to know a Drow here by the name of Yazrin relatively well, and he is willing to join you in my stead if he is allowed.
(He could try? Send him up)
E gets an affirmative from Phantom before the link breaks. A few moments later, there's a knock on the door. "I was told to join the expedition in Soldear's stead." Yazrin's voice comes through.
"Come in, and talk to Xorius about it." She takes one of his hands, as he said to before, setting an open telepathy link with Valitya
Yazrin opens the door, standing in his usual adventuring gear, his scale mail gleaming and bow slung over his shoulder. He immediately turns to Xorius. "Since Soldaer can't come, I was requested to join this..expedition of sorts. I'm not going to harm anyone unless they harm the girl here." he gestures to Valitya, "After all, your kind are more likely to help with something I'd very much like to see: to downfall of Lloth." His maroon eyes light on fire for a moment as he says that, btu they quickly die back.
"You dislike the foul demon goddess... but don't serve the gods? Interesting... perhaps we can speak afterwards."
Yazrin doesn't say anything, instead just bowing his head slightly. "Am I allowed to come along then?"
Xorius is silent for a moment. "Very well. Take either of their hands."
Yazrin nods, moving and taking ahold of E's free hand.
In a burst of brimstone, they're now in a cube made of dark iron, about 30 meters to a side. The cube is somehow illuminated, though there are no light sources.
"I don't want to argue about this again. But thank you."
"Its true. And youre welcome. Are you ready to go see the house?"
Mithris nods. "I'm ready."
He takes out a runic "Do you have any there?"
"I don't think so."
He takes out 3 and hands them to her "I grabbed.... A fair amount extra"
"Thank you." Mithris takes them, crushing one.
Kalnor does the same. As they arrive there, still looking like the bay, the new house, a 3 story building, stands out fairly quickly. The architecture looks mainly a combination of midevil and second empire style, with a few small tower-like tops in each corner of the home. It currently seems unpainted, but many assorted paint cans are seen nearby
"It looks really good, right? And we could paint it ourselves."
He nods "It looks perfect! What colors do you think we should paint it?"
"Maybe colors that match the sea?"
He smiles "Thatd definitely look amazing!" He begins looking through the paint colors, of which there are many. Each has a number '4' covering each sidr
"Do you know what the number is for?"
He shakes his head "No clue.. Maybe a brand or something?"
Mithris nods. "Maybe. Should we start planning out what color each thing should be?"
"Having a plan would definitely be good... Should we paint it based on where it is? Like one half a certain color, another half a different one? Or different structures being a certain color? Like the tower tops all being one, the trim being one, and things like that?"
"Maybe the second one?"
"Alright! So... Sea colors... Probably white, and a few different shades of blue? Where should we put each?"
"Maybe most of it can be blue, but the framing can be white?"
He nods "Alright, then! We'll... Probably need brushes first, though"
"Do you know where to get some?"
"I think just a general store? Im not really sure"

Nox is downstairs, seeming tired, and looking around for anyone he knows
*Reverse Timewarp!*
Soldaer walks downstairs for the first time in a while, seemingly in a good mood. He quickly spots Nox and makes his way over to him.
Nox looks over "Hello!"
Soldaer smiles, switching to telepathy so they can converse easily. Hello. I'm Soldaer Torrae. Welcome to the Tavern. Who might you be?
(You can call me Nox. And no welcome is needed. Ive been here before) he smiles
Soldaer's expression brightens, and his eyebrows shoot up. Nox?! As in, the Nox that helped E rescue her brother from Joshua?
(You know Enethia? Thats great! So I did return to the right tavern!)
Yes you did! E's here, Kalnor, Mithris...
He smiles widely (Great!! Theyre all the best... And... I could really use their help. How do you know them all?)
Haven't really met Kalnor, but I know he's here. Mithris was one of the first people I met when I got here. E was the first to greet me, went on a trip to Sigil with her, Atemos and Avarice, may or may not have feelings for her. He says with a chuckle. But E is definitely one of my closest friends her at the Tavern.
(Oh, Atemos is awesome too! He gave me a shoosuva) he seems... Slightly saddened about this part (No clue who Avarice is, though. But E is definitely one of the best people I know, too! Her and Kalnor helped me... A lot. Mithris helped me a ton after I got to the first tavern,.also! How long have you been here for?)
About three months now. He says. You're gonna need to wait for E if you want to see her though; she's currently in Avernus, escorting a noble and keeping her safe from an Archdevil. And yes, I do know how out of character that seems for her, but it's the truth.
He tilts is head (Is it Szaren? I know shes usually fine with him.)
Nope, not Szaren, although he is around her somewhere too. A young girl that was kidnapped by someone working for aforementioned Acrhdevil.
(Oh... Does she... Know shes a noble? It... Tends to make her slightly... Well.... In a not great mood)
Soldaer chuckles at this. Yeah, she knows, and yeah, she's not happy about it, but she already gave the girl her word that she'd be safe before E knew, so....
(... E usually tries to keep her word... Do you think theyre alright? Was the girl hurt at all? Did anything happen?) He seems pretty concerned
Soldaer sighs. Last I knew, they are safe, and fine. E isn't the only one with the girl: Lulu and another Drow named Yazrin went with her. E also gave me a mirror so she can contact me if necessary. He actually reaches into a pocket and pulls it out.
Ohhh.... One of her soul mirrors
Soldaer cocks his head slightly. Soul Mirrors?
He nods Yeah! The mirrors she makes that contain her soul and..... He trails off Aaannnnd.... She didnt tell you so I probably wasnt supposed to either.... DangitNox...
Soldaer looks from Nox, to the mirror, back to Nox...This goes on for a while before he's finally able to say something. She...She put her SOUL into this mirror??!!!!
A..... A piece of it.... Shes able to divide her soul into those mirrors and get certain uses from it.... The mirror actually is purely a manifestation of soul... Its literally not een a mirror without the soul, just air...
Soldaer is still trying to wrap his head around the first part. Her soul. In a mirror.......WHY?????
Its an ability she has as part of her powers... Its pretty useful...

Should we then? Or should we wait and surprise her in-person when she comes back?
"Very well. As I'm sure you've guessed, our... dear friend, Valitya, has some fiendish blood in her. Valuable blood. Quite honestly, some people would not hesitate to kill her for it. Which is part of the reason why I thought it prudent to ensure that she knew."
"Kill her? For blood?"
"Not literally for it. More as a result of who her parents are. Well, one parent, in particular."

Soldaer looks from Nox, to the mirror, back to Nox...This goes on for a while before he's finally able to say something. She...She put her SOUL into this mirror??!!!!
A..... A piece of it.... Shes able to divide her soul into those mirrors and get certain uses from it.... The mirror actually is purely a manifestation of soul... Its literally not een a mirror without the soul, just air...
Soldaer is still trying to wrap his head around the first part. Her soul. In a mirror.......WHY?????
Its an ability she has as part of her powers... Its pretty useful...
Nox hears Soldaer talking to himself a bit. Calm down, it's fine. She knows what she's doing.... He takes a deep breath. Ok, so does this thing work both ways too? Like can we use it to contact her? I think she'd be thrilled to know you're back.
He nods It does. Well... Not the scrying part. But the talking part
Should we then? Or should we wait and surprise her in-person when she comes back?
Wait, I think

"Kill her? For blood?"

11. The weak swordsman clings to his instrument. It is better you have a sword, but death must lie under your fingernails, if need be. Learn death with your elbows, death with your knees, and death with your thumbs and fingertips. It is said death with the tongue is useful, but I find words too soft an instrument to smash a man’s skull.
Its an ability she has as part of her powers... Its pretty useful...

Krathian is staring into a crystal ball, which roils with white smoke. He knocks erratically on the table, seeming absentminded.
Fin is sitting in a pine tree on one of the highest branches, reading a scroll with mahogany rods
Turin is playing rochambeau with a goblin over a pair of golden scissor-daggers
Hi, I am not a chest. I deny with 100% certainty that I am a chest. I can neither confirm nor deny what I am beyond that.
I used to portray Krathian, Q'ilbrith, Jim, Tara, Turin, Nathan, Tench, Finn, Alvin, and other characters in various taverns.
I also do homebrew, check out my Spells and Magic Items
