Raphael tenses up upon making contact with the god. Then… um… I choose free will… although it isn’t a choice I guess.
Elendon sighs. "this is going to be harder than I thought." He mutters to himself. It should be your choice, Raphael. I'm not forcing it on you...
*can you cut the chain?*
”But… How would you define free will?”
*Sorry*
Elendon sighs, not angry in the least, but trying to quantify the principle. "I'd say the ability to think fully autonomously; to not have anything, no higher directive, driving you to do something; the ability to say no without fear of repercussions."
“So to choose things free from outside interference. Now, if it has to be my choice, and I choose then you don’t need to give me anything. If I don’t choose, then I don’t have free will, and you can give it to me. Thus, if I am lacking free will, then I can’t choose. It would have to be your choice. If it has to be my choice, then it doesn’t matter… if that makes sense.”
Elendon shuts his eyes. "It makes sense, but you're slightly wrong. All angels have free will to some point. In this case, I am trying to give you fully free will. You have enough free will to choose whether you want it or not, or at least you should."
“Mmm… okay. Well, you could also erase my memories of you being a god… you might think I will give a more truthful answer talking to a solar or elf.”
Elendon chuckles. "Solar, possible. A normal elf? Doubtful, you still have truesight, and can see my wings and crown no doubt."
“You could charm me or something.”
Elendon shakes his head. "Not exactly my specialty. Offensive and healing are my specialties for magic, with some summoning thrown in."
“Mmm… Well I guess we will have to settle for Solar… although you might be able to make me forget and not notice via a command.”
Elendon sighs. "This isn't my nature, Raphael..."
Raphael is disappointed Um nonetheless remains resolute. “Then I guess I must play with the cards I was given…” they sigh before continuing. “From the information I have been given, I ask for free will, with as much independence as I possess currently.”
Elendon nods, and his eyes start glowing again, and the aura around him intensifies slightly. He lays a now-glowing hand on Raphael's head. "Then I hereby grant you truly free will. You are no longer bound by the edicts of those who made you. You are free to choose whom you serve, how you serve, or even if you serve."
Raphael shudders, and examines themselves. “I don’t feel any different… should I?”
Elendon shrugs. "Not necessarily. Although, if this worked, you should have full and complete free will." He thinks for a minute. "Since you serve a different pantheon, or were at least created by one, it is possible that it didn't, but it is the best I can do."
Raphael mediates for a bit. "I do feel a sense of... Doubt? That I might want to find a different path then just serving and... Selfishness, that I care about what I want to do as well..." They think for a while. "Can I serve now?" They say, much less enthusiastic then both *but still energetic at the chance*
Elendon smiles, chuckling slightly. "If that is your desire, then yes, although I don't currently have anything for you to do, Raphael, in which case, you should enjoy yourself a little. Figure out what you want to do."
Allison is downstairs with Krathian, trying to keep cool in the basement.
Oscar is with Fin, having a drinking contest.
Yuri is outside, growing tree's the shade her flowers from the summer sun.
Spawn appears and casts control weather to make it cooler and to stop the heatwaves from wherever they were coming from. He will continue to cast it and create rain clouds.
Whoever you are, this is my home. Pull another stunt like this and I'll give you a punishment worse than the Hells.
Emrick is more used to the cold than the warm, so he's a little uncomfortable and decides to sit next to Yuri in the shade. "Did you do this?" He gestures to the flowers. "That's some pretty cool magic."
She smiles "Thank you!" she chirps. "I don't want the flowers growing dehydrated from the water that is being evaporated from the heat so i grow a few shady tree's so the sun's not to bad"
"That's smart..." Emrick turns to face her (insight check). "Did, uh...You make the heat? Or..."
15
"Hah, no, It comes with the changing sun patterns." She said
"Makes sense, I think. I mean...we're in a forest, so I wasn't expecting a dry season." Emrick seems to like Yuri a little more than a friend, but he's self conscious about himself.
She takes notes of this. "Its okay, there is still things to learn. You are a drow yes? did you live your beginning years under the ground?"
"I'm only half a Drow. I grew up in Icewind Dale." Emrick explains. "But, yeah...I'm used to the cold. Not the heat." He smiles faintly.
"ah" she said and nodded her head. She is dressed in a white dress with a woven belt made of thin strips of wood that bloomed with small green leaves, she wore silver vines tied back in her hair that tied her auburn hair into a low ponytail. "May i ask, did you ever see plants in Icewind dale?"
"Yeah." Emrick nods. "The pine trees were always pretty cool. Lots of ferns and shrubs that adapted to the cold, too. There were these flowers that only bloom at night, forgot what they were called, but they were alright."
"Im afraid i do not know their name either, my power stretches far and wide but even i do not know these flowers that you speak of"
"Huh." Emrick tilts his head. "Well that's alright. I bet you'd know them if you saw them." He says reassuringly.
She raises a hand over the ground. Small white lilies with a blue glow to them start growing out "Do they look like this?"
"Yeah! Woah..." Emrick marvels at the flowers. "That's crazy cool, you know..."
She chuckles a bit, her laugh like the warm chiming of bells "Thank you my friend but even the most simple wizard could grow flowers like this"
"Yeah well..." Emrick shrugs and leans against the tree. "I can't. But I'm not a wizard, so it's alright with me." He thinks for a moment. "So...if you're a queen...are you married or something?"
She shakes her head "I belong to everyone and no one, as confusing as that sounds to your ears, let me explain it to you." she said, turning a bit "My essence is spring, Spring is everywhere, its the singing of baby birds, the warm weather or spring rain, the new growth of flowers and plants. Every child or lover who picks flowers for someone they care about, i am their, not conscious but there just enough"
"I see." Emrick nods (Insight check). "At least you don't seem lonely."
*me who had fun writing that because it ties in with her being Poly*
23 . "I don't think i am, but my emotions are rather supressed"
She notices that he's a little saddened by what she said. He respects her and all, but he feels like an idiot for thinking that he could get with a Fey Queen.
"Hm." Emrick nods and pulls out his guitar and begins singing a new song.
"I need an easy friend I do, with an ear to lend I do think you fit this shoe I do, but you have a clue
I'll take advantage while You hang me out to dry But I can't see you every night Free (I do, I do)
I'm standing in your line I do hope you have the time I do pick a number too I do keep a date with you
I'll take advantage while You hang me out to dry But I can't see you every night Free

"Forgive the mess, I am trying to regain my sanity again."
Yuri continues walking through the forest with Lazarus "So with our deal.. This wooden child you will make, I want magic imbued into its husk"
"Mmm... What type of magic? Blood magic?"
"Ha! your jokes amuse me, no. Simple base magic of animate statues"
"Mmm... Without blood magic?" They say, not thinking this a joking matter
"No" she said, giggling a bit, finding this funny
Lazarus frowns slightly. "You find this amusing, don't you? Me not knowing the strange costumes of the feywild?" He says, not angry but curious
"A little, forgive me if i seem rude about it, it just amuses me, but there is time to teach you" she said
"It's fine. I have cause enough pain in my unlife, at least I am making someone happy." They think for a while. "So no blood magic, and my paladin powers can't animate really anything..."
"Then gain the powers my friend" she said and smiled, turning backwards and falling into a pile of leaves that some how turn into millions of butterflies.
Lazarus looks on jealously. "Is there a time limit on this offer?"
"No, I am patient and do not need it right away"
"Do I have to enchant it, or can I make someone else enchant it?"
She shakes her head, a butterfly with bright orange and red wings crawling on her finger, "I could not care how you get it, so long as you get it"
"Mmm... Okay. Thank you for the offer, by the way." He says, reaching his hand out to touch the butterfly, but stops halfway, muttering to himself
She chuckles and stands up, picking up a small amount of leaves and giving them to him to cup in his hands before turning them into butterflies for him.
Lazarus tries to stand still for the butterflies, not moving. thank you. Sorry if I should of asked first
"It is ok, you looked like you wanted to touch one of them" she said and chuckled, holding a purple-violet one gently on her hand
i did. Just.... Me and living animals don't mix. Most run away, or get aggressive towards me. Lazarus says, standing as still as a statue
"It is ok, just breathe in and out, let them feel welcome towards you" she said and smiled warmly
Lazarus tries to breath naturally, and it comes off pretty convincingly. may I ask you a question regarding your vampirism?
"Of course" she said
Compared to the common vampire, how do you differ?
"I don't require blood as a daily substance, i can drink once and go for months without a need for more"
"Is that all?"
"More or less" she responded
"Mmm... I see." He says, a bit disappointed
"Why?" she asked "What has made you sad by this discovery"
"Mmm... I thought you were something you weren't... Can you control the butterflies?" They say, changing the conversation
"why are you saddened by that?"
"Mmm...are you versed in Klankixes vampyre lore?"

Hi everyone! I'm working up the will to finalize my signature, so... I guess this will be the signature for now
Yuri continues walking through the forest with Lazarus "So with our deal.. This wooden child you will make, I want magic imbued into its husk"
"Mmm... What type of magic? Blood magic?"
"Ha! your jokes amuse me, no. Simple base magic of animate statues"
"Mmm... Without blood magic?" They say, not thinking this a joking matter
"No" she said, giggling a bit, finding this funny
Lazarus frowns slightly. "You find this amusing, don't you? Me not knowing the strange costumes of the feywild?" He says, not angry but curious
"A little, forgive me if i seem rude about it, it just amuses me, but there is time to teach you" she said
"It's fine. I have cause enough pain in my unlife, at least I am making someone happy." They think for a while. "So no blood magic, and my paladin powers can't animate really anything..."
"Then gain the powers my friend" she said and smiled, turning backwards and falling into a pile of leaves that some how turn into millions of butterflies.
Lazarus looks on jealously. "Is there a time limit on this offer?"
"No, I am patient and do not need it right away"
"Do I have to enchant it, or can I make someone else enchant it?"
She shakes her head, a butterfly with bright orange and red wings crawling on her finger, "I could not care how you get it, so long as you get it"
"Mmm... Okay. Thank you for the offer, by the way." He says, reaching his hand out to touch the butterfly, but stops halfway, muttering to himself
She chuckles and stands up, picking up a small amount of leaves and giving them to him to cup in his hands before turning them into butterflies for him.
Lazarus tries to stand still for the butterflies, not moving. thank you. Sorry if I should of asked first
"It is ok, you looked like you wanted to touch one of them" she said and chuckled, holding a purple-violet one gently on her hand
i did. Just.... Me and living animals don't mix. Most run away, or get aggressive towards me. Lazarus says, standing as still as a statue
"It is ok, just breathe in and out, let them feel welcome towards you" she said and smiled warmly

"Forgive the mess, I am trying to regain my sanity again."
Raphael tenses up upon making contact with the god. Then… um… I choose free will… although it isn’t a choice I guess.
Elendon sighs. "this is going to be harder than I thought." He mutters to himself. It should be your choice, Raphael. I'm not forcing it on you...
*can you cut the chain?*
”But… How would you define free will?”
*Sorry*
Elendon sighs, not angry in the least, but trying to quantify the principle. "I'd say the ability to think fully autonomously; to not have anything, no higher directive, driving you to do something; the ability to say no without fear of repercussions."
“So to choose things free from outside interference. Now, if it has to be my choice, and I choose then you don’t need to give me anything. If I don’t choose, then I don’t have free will, and you can give it to me. Thus, if I am lacking free will, then I can’t choose. It would have to be your choice. If it has to be my choice, then it doesn’t matter… if that makes sense.”
Elendon shuts his eyes. "It makes sense, but you're slightly wrong. All angels have free will to some point. In this case, I am trying to give you fully free will. You have enough free will to choose whether you want it or not, or at least you should."
“Mmm… okay. Well, you could also erase my memories of you being a god… you might think I will give a more truthful answer talking to a solar or elf.”
Elendon chuckles. "Solar, possible. A normal elf? Doubtful, you still have truesight, and can see my wings and crown no doubt."
“You could charm me or something.”
Elendon shakes his head. "Not exactly my specialty. Offensive and healing are my specialties for magic, with some summoning thrown in."
“Mmm… Well I guess we will have to settle for Solar… although you might be able to make me forget and not notice via a command.”
Elendon sighs. "This isn't my nature, Raphael..."
Raphael is disappointed Um nonetheless remains resolute. “Then I guess I must play with the cards I was given…” they sigh before continuing. “From the information I have been given, I ask for free will, with as much independence as I possess currently.”
Elendon nods, and his eyes start glowing again, and the aura around him intensifies slightly. He lays a now-glowing hand on Raphael's head. "Then I hereby grant you truly free will. You are no longer bound by the edicts of those who made you. You are free to choose whom you serve, how you serve, or even if you serve."
Raphael shudders, and examines themselves. “I don’t feel any different… should I?”
Elendon shrugs. "Not necessarily. Although, if this worked, you should have full and complete free will." He thinks for a minute. "Since you serve a different pantheon, or were at least created by one, it is possible that it didn't, but it is the best I can do."
Raphael mediates for a bit. "I do feel a sense of... Doubt? That I might want to find a different path then just serving and... Selfishness, that I care about what I want to do as well..." They think for a while. "Can I serve now?" They say, much less enthusiastic then both *but still energetic at the chance*
Elendon smiles, chuckling slightly. "If that is your desire, then yes, although I don't currently have anything for you to do, Raphael, in which case, you should enjoy yourself a little. Figure out what you want to do."
"Thanks! Um... Well I guess I will go doodle. That is unless you want to continue to talk to me."
Elendon laughs. "Whatever YOU want to do. I can easily explore this world to pass the time."
"Okay..." They walk away, still feeling a bit weird now that they have free will

Soldaer is discussing the layout of their home with Nia.
[Open Slot]
Yuri is with Emrick.
Oscar is having a drinking contest with Fin.
Lore/Allison is on rotationally schedule (Until anyone interacts)
Piggleshell falls off a table into the middle of Lore's dogs.
The dogs, all 9 of them, stare at this thing that has dropped down. Elmo, the buffest dog in the group, lowers his muzzle to its shell and sniffs it.
Piggleshell talks to them in dog. "Why hello there, cute little puppies."
Elmo gruffly barks something "Who you??"
"You may call me Piggleshell. Or simply Turtle. I don't care, honestly."
A female dog with cream colored fur barked "I call you greenback, pretty shell name"
"Well, that's a new one but not that bad considering... what are your names, kind dogs?"
The cream one who spoke dipped her head "I is Sage, The big one is Elmo. the rest are our kinships."
"It is good to meet you all."
"Good meet you too" Sage replied and nodded her fuzzy head. Elmo narrowed his green eyes and curled up elsewhere.
Piggleshell slowly starts moving forward, through the group. "Tell me, why do you work for a master?"
*Your making me fight every urge to have a tiny dog rebellion*
"Woman feed us, keep us warm in little booties, brush us so don't get hot."
"Gives away your children and doesn't let you run free, as well. Your ancestors did so, across the snowy tundra; they had whole cultures before humans came to settle and enslave the land."
*Mwahahahaha...*

Elendon chuckles, and vanishes from the tavern main with a flash of light. You can contact me if you need to, Raphael. Elendon says before he's gone, flying out over the forest.

She notices that he's a little saddened by what she said. He respects her and all, but he feels like an idiot for thinking that he could get with a Fey Queen.
"Hm." Emrick nods and pulls out his guitar and begins singing a new song.
I do, with an ear to lend
I do think you fit this shoe
I do, but you have a clue
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night
Free (I do, I do)
I do hope you have the time
I do pick a number too
I do keep a date with you
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night
