In fact it was more then obvious that that's what he meant. The book closes when the star isn't there. It can open when it is there. That much was apparent. But it doesn't give him the power to decide when the star is in the sky. I was under the empression that the star had already dissappeared before I wrote a post. All I intended to do with that post, was to let the FNF notice that that star was there, but had dissappeared. the book can only be opened when the star is there, as Goldenking had understood. When the star vanishes, the book closes, not the way around. -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape.

The only problem I have with your post, and this is what led to so much confusion, is that you completely miscalculated the amount of time the star was visible.

The Immortal BANNED Member # 4	written Saturday, April 22 2006 12:12 Profile Homepage #403 Well, the star was in the sky for a day. Although it could be that Mernal simply didn't figure out that the book could be opened during that period until near the end. (And if you must know what the purpose is, it's two-fold. It sends a psychic message to all Rakshasi on Ermarian, and it also has a hidden message written in the Rakshasic tongue telling them where the star actually is and how to get to it via magical portals. That it would cause a book to open as well is also feasible.) EDIT: Not to be a nitpicker, but the notion of a human faction being better with illusions than the rakshasi is a bit outlandish. (I'm talking about the Dominion forces that fled from Angel's Rest.) A better explanation would be "we saw them and ran before they noticed us," not "we used the type of magic they are masters of better than they did."

Thralni Master Member # 5977	written Tuesday, April 25 2006 10:52 Profile Homepage #407 I think TM already has explained pretty much of it, and what he said was in any case more than true: - Mernal saw the star only when it has almost dissappeared (because we have no form of knowing when exactly certain posts take place, we also don't really know how long certain things take. Don't forget that the FNF have been travelling for some days, and Mernal was trying to get past the goblins safely). - Mernal only remembered the book untill it was too late. -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape.

I've built a colony of mages on the Bigail Sea and annexed land on the Dominion outskirts, along with proposing an anti-Rakshasa pact. Lots of big news from me. You have things to write about.

Life has been... interesting to me for the past few days. And I still don't have my laptop back. EDIT: quote: Originally written by Mc 'mini' Thralni: I'm stopping with the RP. Continue as if the FNF never existed. I can't find the time, nor the motivation to continue. No, we can't just pretend a faction never existed. It's just no longer under your control, Thralni. We will do with it what we see fit. If you want a dignified end for your faction, instead of letting us control it as an NPC faction, then write a dignified exit post for it. Heck, have the FNF engage the rakshasi and go out swinging. But don't just tell us to ignore twenty or so posts of nephilim activity.

The problem is I just don't really enjoy this RP anymore. It has become a drag. Nobody ever posts, I don't have the time, and I lack all motivation. Again, I'm sorry, but I quit.

Scarmiglione is sitting on an outcropping overlooking a gigantic bonfire. Standing to his right is the "Doctor," monitoring all four of the portals. Then, ten Rakshasi teleport into being in front of Scar. "State your business, soldiers," said Scarmiglione, expecting nothing more than a typical reconnaissance report. "Sir! We regret to inform you that a demonic nexus is forming to the south of us!" "Oh?" "Demons," spat the Doctor. "They are of no threat to us. What brimstone can they hurl at us which we will not devour?" "Nevermind that," said Scarmiglione. "We must still take their threat seriously." "Very well, Red Star. But what do you propose?" "I propose that we immediately send a group of magi to seal off the nexus before its formation." "That sounds reasonable, Master." Didn't happen yet. Please rewrite this section of the post.

They were using set up scrying pools, not creating their own portals. Also, if all that happened was that you sensed portals opening, how would you know it was demons.

Ephesos Law Bringer Member # 4153	written Sunday, December 3 2006 13:52 Profile Homepage #424 Um... I have a slight objection. TM's rakshasi are the current force for eliminating dead factions, and it's much easier to use what we've already got on the table instead of introducing yet another alien invader. That, and the Parasites feel even farther from canon than TM's conception of rakshasi, and at least they have a sort of momentum behind them. Besides, we can't just forget about the rakshasi. -------------------- Thuryl: "Runescape: for people who are too stupid to save their games." Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice.
