OOC: Start of the next day by those in the village. Marvin do whatever you want, you could join the group in the forest.

IC:

All in a days work, Cain thought as he woke up in his promised shelter. The house belonged to a local that had attempted to climb the mountain but never returned. Cain had spent most of the night reading through some of his notes hoping to find something of interests regarding the treasures of the Shadow Mountains, most of it was tedious legends and myths, the sort he already knew about. He did find something of interests, a story he had not heard about before, a treasure, no, a powerful artifact hidden somewhere in the mountain. Cain smiled and took that paper with him for later reading.

The day was relatively clear and welcoming; it would be a good day to start the climb. Cain walked to the tavern, he would need some assistants, a couple of foolish and expendable adventurers would do. He would need a couple of meet shields for his quest. He knew of the thing that guarded the mountain, he knew he could not take that thing alone. Hopefully, his new earned gold would serve as bait for young foolish adventurers.

Cain confidently stepped in the tavern, big pouch of gold in hand.

"Anyone interested in a little hike to the mountains?" He asked to those inside.

OOC: Ok, it’s update time:

Somewhere In the Mountain of Shadows:
- (Fz) Guy. Mysterious dweller of the Mountains.
- (Sullust) Sullust. Mysterious warrior searching for Órloki
Both are moving to somewhere else.

In the forest towards the Mountain:
- (Zephyr) Caecus. Undead Spirit, held by twin swords. (Might be linked to Orloki.)
- (Arachnid) Cyrus. Undead Skeleton heavily armored. (Might be linked to Orloki.)
- (Ephesos) Brother Sequoia, Druid of Krell.
- (Lady Davida) Lisha, Assassin from the "eastern lands".
- (Aran) Melora, Shadow Elf. While resting in the woods, both undead capture Melora sneaking in and take her to Brother Sequoia and Lisha.
- (Wise Man) Andros, mutant fleeing from Guild of Blademasters. Peeking on the others above.

In Village:
- (Nazgul) Cain, assassin. Near well, reclaiming reward for "getting rid" of undead.
- (Marvin) Filbert. Leaving village, walking into forest.
- (Spring) Brail, and his assistant Weech, Aramian spy, servants of Karrases. Entering village, walking to well.
- (SirSherlock) Edith, noblewoman. Returned to Tavern?
- (Frozen Feet) Tuulentekija, mysterious foreigner. In Tavern.

Phew, there are a lot of players in this RP. You are all welcome btw. I suggest those of us in the village get together somehow and make a parallel journey with the group in the forest. Both groups could meet late in the RP, which could be interesting.

As they walked into the woods Cain couldn't help but smile at the course of the events. This new woman, by the looks an assassin like him, wished to take the undead with her. For what? He did not know and he did not care, as long as they were to be taken away from town. All he would need to do then is receive the rewards for getting rid of the undead, all without lifting a finger. It was perfect.

"Woman" Cain spoke. "You want these creatures? Take them, under one condition, leave town this very night and do not return, at least for the next few days." The undead were about to brake in, irritated by the two mortals toying with them when the woman replied smiling. "I knew you would see the benefit of it." She then turned to the undead, apparently to calm them and explain why she needed them. Cain did not care about her business.

With no further words he left the Druid, the two undead and the assassin alone in the woods. He had a reward to receive back in the village.

Cain did not bother to look at the new undead, instead he watched his customers flee from the well in absolute panic. They were gone, that was bad, but it was also an opportunity, he might not need to kill these undead after all, just getting them out of town would get him the gold, food and shelter he needed. He muttered a curse to himself and turned to Caecus inspecting him briefly, he noted his swords radiated a power of their own, a will of their own. He then turned to Cyrus. This other undead was heavily armored, by the looks of things it was the armor that held the creature together.

Both were not ordinary undead, they were clearly not mindless souls, stupid maybe, but not mindless. They also radiated a different power, a kind Cain was not familiar with. For a moment he thought of just slaying both of them right where they stood, but that unknown power unnerved him. Cain was a proficient assassin but he was no fool. These two could be more powerful than him, if so, a more subtle approach would be necessary.

"What are you two?" Cain spat. "Clearly, you are no common undead. Tell me why you stain these lands with your foul presence or I will spare you from you're miserable and tormented existence."

Hey JadeWolf, I think I read on another post that you live in SW France? I'm going there next week to visit my fathers cousin. To Perpignan to be precise. Know that place? Any nearby spot you would recommend?

I can't remember the scariest thing, I have a bad memory for those thigs, I just kind of forget them, that's good I guess. I don't have any irrational phobias thankfully.

To the guy afraid of satellites, my guess is you were afraid of them suddenly falling over you at great speed and killing you?

Cain's first steps into the little village were not without commotion. Apparently something was going on around a nearby well, many of the locals had gathered around it, in the center of it all just by the well, some kind of druid was looking into it.

"Undead!" A local cried out loud. "The foul creature has jumped in the well!". "The cursed thing wishes to desecrate our water!" Cried another, followed by a general uproar. "Slay the creature!", "Kill him!" And so on they went, clubs and torches in hand.

Cain was a cold blooded assassin among many other things, bad things, but he was also an opportunist. He knew these ignorant peasant rabble would pay him handsomely for slaying whatever rested in the bottom of that well. He could use easy gold, food and rest before his journey to the big treasure.

Cain walked confidently among the locals towards the leading man of the mob.

"Dear sir," he bowed slightly. "Allow me to introduce myself. I am Cain, master assassin. I see you have an undead problem? Risk not you'r lives with this wretched soul, I would gladly dispatch the foul creature to the pits of hell for some gold coins, food and a resting place in you'r humble village."

The locals inspected Cain. A few seconds were enough for them to realize they were in front a true warrior. Not to tall but strongly built, badly shaved, scarred all over, but not enough to deter some of his charm and defiant look. In the end it was Cain's cold, piercing grey eyes that convinced the locals.

"Very well stranger, finish him and we will repay you'r efforts with gold, food and shelter." Cain smiled at the man and then turned to the well. Not taking any weapons out, he approached the well.

IC:

"This is it," said Cain's guide. Cain stood by him on the hill overlooking the little village. "Doesn't look like much, but this is the only place to get some rest and a decent beer for miles around. Go to the Flying Pig, that's the best place in this dump," added the guide, who proceeded to stand in front of Cain's view of the town. "This is where I leave you, not without my fee of course. It was a dangerous voyage I am sure you agree with me on that."

Cain spoke for the first time since he hired the man. "Fee. Of course." He said while reaching for something under his worn brown leather jacket. The last thing the guide saw was the silver dagger flying to his forehead.

After retrieving his dagger and what few valuables the guide had, Cain kicked the body down the other side of the hill towards nearby bushes. He then turned to the village covered by the starry night and walked calmly down the hill.

OOC: Yes, Cain.

Unfortunately, worm holes are more science fiction than they are science fact. A wormhole is a theoretical opening in space-time that one could use to travel to far away places very quickly. The wormhole itself is two copies of the black hole geometry connected by a throat - the throat, or passageway, is called an Einstein-Rosen bridge. It has never been proved that worm holes exist and there is no experimental evidence for them, but it is fun to think about the possibilities their existence might create.

We would not need faster than light travel, Assume that the wormhole connects two remote locations. While traveling through a wormhole subluminal (slower-than-light) speeds can be used. The time in which the distance was traveled would appear faster than it would take light to make the journey through normal space.

A wormhole could potentially allow time travel. But is is all theoretical fun. There is no experimental evidence for them. Stephen Hawking conjectured that while wormholes might be created, they cannot be used for time travel; even with exotic matter stabilizing the wormhole against its own instabilities, he argued, inserting a particle into it will destabilize it quickly enough to prevent its use.

On another note, is "2003-UB313" the real name? Or is it just temporary.

Finally. After years in search and contemplation, I have found my cursed password. Down and deep I fell into the lost corners of my folders, into old files, CD's and ancient disks too old for the new world to remember, the forgotten password always tormenting me.

Each time I thought I had the appropriate password I would return to knock on the mighty login doors of the SW kingdom... but to no avail.

For a moment I thought of leaving my old soul and adopting a new one, I did purge my old spirit once and entered the kingdom reborn, but it was not the same. I left, back to the shadows to continue my quest for the forgotten password. I did not give up.

Out there I visited other kingdoms, the weather ballooners provided me with shelter, to regain my lost strength.

Far and wide I surfed the net in my quest. I returned to long forgotten e-mail accounts in search for clues to it's location. Through vile banners and foul pop-ups I fought my way to the last resting place of my password. After years of searching through abandoned e-mails and forgotten folders I can re-enter this realm with my old name.

Greetings...for any who remember anyway. :D

Suicide in General
Infiltrator
Member # 2940
Profile Homepage #52
Another reason I can think of to explain the increasing number of suicides in teens and in today's society in general is the value they give to their lives. Since kids we are surrounded with empty messages of fullfilment(sp?) from products, to uni. titles,to who knows what. Back in the early days of humanity everyone had to strive and fight every single day to survive, from getting their daily bread to protecting themselves or their loved ones from the dangers of the world was a hard fight.

This, I believe, made them apreciate the sole purpose of living, breathing and feel the world around them. Ofcourse, in a fastfood internet message board society it is hard to get a grip on basic things like this.
