[3:59 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula waited at the dock, watching the ripples of the river and munching on a fish. The "Prince of Thieves" would be arriving soon...
[4:02 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "So Mund, you ready for this?"
[4:02 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "We still don't really know who exactly is there"
[4:03 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "Well, no time to fall back now. Let's get moving."
[4:03 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: The Dwabi shrugged, and threw the half-eaten fish into the river. Wherever that wagon had come from, its contents certainly weren't fit for royalty. That was exactly what tonight's business was for...
[4:03 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "Ah, Drew! What a surprise!"
[4:03 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: Drew and Mund arrived at the location, which appeared to be a dock
[4:04 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "S...Sula? what are you doing here? I haven't seen you in a while"
[4:04 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "Oh, you two know each other?"
Mund was intrigued by the coincidence.
[4:07 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "Kwemo, Drew. And..." Sula sniffed with concern at the stranger. He felt incredibly Nanyo... "k-Kwemo to you. I am Sula, a man of masks and night breezes."
[4:07 PM] REWlego: Leodin is watching the 3 from a rooftop as they stand around on a dock. He doesn't recognize the one, but he sees Drew and Sula and wonders what they're doing this late at night.
[4:08 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "He changes his....uhh....title thing a lot" He said to Mund
[4:08 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "But this is Sula, he has a Dark Pegasus named Shimi!"
[4:08 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "Uh... My name is Mund. Drew here asked me to help him."
[4:10 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: This man...wasn't part of the plan. "Ha... So Drew, you too were given this quest?" Sula holds up a note with similar (but smaller) script, then puts it back into his robe.
[4:11 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Huh? but...your not a theif"(edited)
[4:12 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "It seems our client...wanted a holy man to oversee this. He trusted Sula-o with the plan, to make sure it was done without...corruption."
[4:14 PM] REWlego: Leodin keeps watching them, but only hears a few words.
[4:15 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula rested his chin in his palm. "Something about having "noble heart"...But I am not a nobleman-nu?"
[4:16 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "Ok..."
"I was trusting that any of you had a plan in mind, so i didn't bother creating one."
[4:17 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "The messanger mentioned someone paying to deliver the message to me"
[4:17 PM] REWlego: What plan are they talking about...?
[4:17 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Who actually assembled us?"
[4:18 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "I do not know. My message was delivered by a good Dwabi friend of mine, a Saushatu. He swore to me in our language that I could trust him, and this plan. And the word of the Dwabi is our bond."
[4:19 PM] [TART] Mango: "Leodin?" haha woah elwyn is there cool
[4:21 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "He said there was great Nanyo at the Dragon Tail, the restaurant not far from the armory. That they were being unfair to their workers. One of them has brought us together, tonight...to help feed their families."
[4:22 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: Mund smirks, someohow satisfied when Sula said those last sentences.
[4:23 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "So, our role here is to assist these families, by stopping this "Nanio" thing?"
[4:23 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Oh yeah I went there when I was looking at all the restaurants nearby....I forgot to mention to ya Drew looked at Mund I researched the Pork that was around here"
[4:24 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula stops to listen to the "Pork" conversation. It could lead to something he could use to further motivate them.
[4:24 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "I dont think the Dragon Tail serves the weird one but I know the workers didn't exactly look 'joly'"
[4:26 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "I hope it doesn't. I rather not experience THAT ever again..."
[4:28 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "Corrupt pork? Perhaps this Nanyo spreads all over the city..." Sula scratched his bare chin. "After all, I was told we would deliver the food to the other side of the city. But whoever our leader is, he trusted me to plan how to get the food to him after it was out of the restaurant. And he said the thieves..." Sula grinned. "Could handle everything before that."(edited)
[4:29 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "So....were stealing food?"
[4:29 PM] REWlego: They're stealing stuff?
[4:29 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula shook his head. "We are giving it back to the workers."
[4:29 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "I carry food around all the time at my new job, this'll be a peice of cake....or pork" He looks teasingly at Mund
[4:30 PM] REWlego: Maybe I misunderstood... I'll have to follow them.
[4:30 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula begins walking along the side of the river, eyes drifting between its surface and his allies.
[4:31 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "I swear I'm going to end you, Drew..."
Mund sighs
"Either way, bring us to the food. No time to waste."
He sounded determined, as like something was really motivating him(edited)
[4:31 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "Now, our client was very particular about what we needed to take. Some of the ingredients are too...strange...do you understand?"
[4:32 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Well it sounds like a good cause so I guess I dont mind stealing 'weird ingrediants'"
[4:33 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: Mund stops in place, curious of what Sula was about to say...
[4:34 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula took out a parchment scroll, with the same beautiful script, and handed it to Drew. It contained, in that same elegant penmanship, a list of quite a few exotic ingredients, like bananas and rare eggs. The scroll prefaces these with "For the reward, you must gather the following underneath:"(edited)
[4:35 PM] REWlego: Reward...?
[4:37 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "Ok, people. Lets get moving, or what?"
[4:37 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Yes, let's finish this quest!"
[4:37 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "But uhh where do we go for our reward?"
[4:38 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "Ah, one moment, one moment!"
[4:38 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula walks over to the edge of the river and dunks his head directly into it. He holds it there for quite a while(edited)
[4:38 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: He sounded somewhat impatient, as if it was really important for him to complete this as fast as possible.
[4:39 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: Mund then turns to Drew, with a worried look.
"... Hey, Drew. Is your friend there really OK?"(edited)
[4:42 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula's head came back up, drenched. Within the water he had heard clattering footsteps, soaring arrows, and shouting...
[4:42 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "He's really, uhhh...mystcial, with traditions and stuff, I can show you a book later!"
[4:42 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: He motioned towards a nearby alley. "We need to get out of the plaza. I'll explain on the way."
[4:43 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: Drew looks ahead and then follows Sula with no hesitation
[4:44 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: Mund follows the two men.
"Say, Sula. Why do we need the get away from the plaza?"
[4:45 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "Not as much time as I thought. The gods have warned me of dangers ahead in our future."
[4:48 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula thought about his mount, and started to worry. "We need to split up. Sula-o will get the wagon while you two go in and find those ingredients. Then we load it up, and Drew and I will take it out of here. Then you..." Sula pointed to Mund. "Can take the money."
[4:50 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "woah woah woah, he's taking Money too?"
[4:50 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "He will drop it outside the door, of course. So they do not know why we came."(edited)
[4:51 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "ohh..." I almost thought I was gona have to make sure I get some money too
[4:52 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "Eh, nice thinking, I've got to say."
Mund was satisfied with that, that plan really was something.
"Ok, Drew, lets go."
[4:53 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula looked back at them one last time. "Kwemo, Drew. Kwemo, Stink-u." Then he turned a corner, hurrying to where he left the fish wagon.
[4:56 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: Drew pokes Mund to make sure he follows his lead, Drew leaps onto a random barrel or something and then up to a window so he can climb to a rooftop
[4:56 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: Eh, Stink-u?! That guy! Why the hell did he call me that?! I swear, capital people...(edited)
[4:56 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: Drew looks down a Mund waiting for him to decide if he wants to follow him or flank
[4:58 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: Hmmm...
Mund thinks for a bit
"Drew, is there another way to enter the place?"
[5:00 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula, a few streets in, realizes he isn't really used to running long distances anymore.
[5:01 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "Nevermind, I'll find another entrance. We need to do this as soon as possible."
[5:02 PM] REWlego: Leodin sees the group split up and jumps down next to Sula.
[5:02 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: Drew looks oddly Serious "Alright then, good luck"
[5:02 PM] REWlego: "Sula."
[5:03 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "Ah, Leo-din! Kwemo!" (So it was your blade I heard, after all...) "Sleeping on rooftops again, milord?"(edited)
[5:06 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: Mund doesn't follow Drew and decides to explore the place for a bit.
Lets see... Is there any new way to get into the building.
He then sees a new way: a window was somewhat opened and Mund was more than capable to enter through there. He jumped into some boxes, made a huge jump to a platform close to the said window and entered through there.
Infiltration complete... Now we have two escape routes.
[5:06 PM] REWlego: "No, I saw you talking with Drew plus one... Something about stealing something?"
[5:07 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: Drew enters through a hatch on the roof they use for Fliers who deliver foreign food
[5:07 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "They do call him the "Prince of Thieves", ha ha ha. Yes, they came to seek the advice of a Dwabi." A little winded, Sula kept walking.(edited)
[5:08 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: He climbs down and realises he's in some sort of storage area
[5:08 PM] REWlego: "What are they stealing Sula?"
[5:09 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: Mund spots Drew and waves at him. In a quiet voice, he asks
"Drew, what are we going to steal? I didn't get any chance to read Sula's list."
[5:11 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "Well, I think one of them is only interested in the money...But I did not get his name. He worries me. Smells like Nanyo from the sewers here..."
[5:11 PM] REWlego: "What about Drew? What is he stealing?"
[5:12 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "...Food. Dwabi food." Sula smiled, picking up the pace a little. "Now you see why they came to me?"
[5:13 PM] REWlego: "..... Why are they stealing Dwabi food Sula."
[5:14 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: The Dwabi turns around, his face already in meditation. "You do not usually have time for 'why', Leodin. Are you sure you would like to hear?"(edited)
[5:14 PM] REWlego: "Sula!"
[5:15 PM] REWlego: "Theft is not something to be taken lightly! Now tell me why they're committing this crime!"
[5:15 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "I think it said something about banans"
[5:16 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: Drew takes out the list to double check
[5:16 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "Ba-bi, ha ha ha. Alright: You know Sula-o is a fortune teller, correct? That is why I got a taste of the river."(edited)
[5:16 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "You think?!"
[5:16 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Yeah it said bannanas and some eggs"
[5:16 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "But like special eggs"
[5:17 PM] REWlego: "This isn't answering my question Sula. Just tell me!"
[5:17 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: Drew looks around not wanting to mess up but felt nervous that he would grab something wrong
[5:19 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "Special eggs? Could Sula be more specifi..."
Mund then found out a crate right in front of him, saying "Rare and special eggs. Extreme caution"
"Found the eggs, Drew. Now what's left is the bananas."(edited)
[5:19 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "It is, Leo-din." Sula sat down in the street, just across from a fairly large wagon with its back facing them. "The gods warned me of the dangers tonight...just as they warned me of the wo-u-lo in Khlin."
[5:19 PM] REWlego: "Wait, what's going on in Khlin?"
[5:20 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula looked up at Leodin. "Wo-u-lo. Big storm. The kind even the Dwabi fear."
[5:21 PM] REWlego: "What does that have to do with stealing food?"
[5:22 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Nice!"
[5:23 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: Drew looks around "Well this room has all the imported stuff so"
[5:23 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "When the weak starve, it brings Nanyo to the strong. When the weak are killed, the strong are guilty for not protecting them."
[5:23 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: Drew opens a door that leads to a smaller room full of imported fruits and vegetables
[5:24 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Bingo!"
[5:24 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: Drew snatches up all of the bananas(edited)
[5:25 PM] REWlego: "Sula..." Leodin's patience is running out "Just give me a straight answer...."
[5:26 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula stands. "Here is my answer, then...."
[5:27 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "Freyzenwald will destroy Khlin."
[5:27 PM] REWlego: "But what does that have to do with stealing food!" He yells, unintentionally.
[5:28 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: Mund picked the crate bow with the said eggs. He then realised that he had to do more trips
Apparently, there were more of them behind this box... Damn, this will take a while.
[5:28 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula yells back, surprisingly angry. "But don't you see?! One minute everything seems fine, then Ba!" A horse on the other side of the fish wagon, from out of sight, begins pulling it away from the two of them - seemingly startled.
[5:29 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "You work day and night to protect the new ruler, Leo-din, but who do you need to protect from them?"
[5:29 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: Hmmm? A scream, nearby?
[5:30 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: Drew walks towards Mund carrying way to many bananas
[5:30 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: one of them falls out
[5:30 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "Drew, did you hear that? We must hurry!"
[5:30 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Im....trying!"
[5:30 PM] REWlego: "I'm sorry.... I'm a bit confused..."
[5:31 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula kept berating him, silently praying for Shimi to hurry. "You said you did not want to return to Khlin. You said you were going all the way to Nolore! So I tried to keep you away from its madness!"(edited)
[5:31 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: After a while, Mund and Drew finally took out all the inventory they needed. Nothing was broken and everything was in good shape. Now, the real challenge begins.
[5:32 PM] REWlego: "If something is going to happen in Khlin, then I need to be there."
[5:32 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Suddenly, a pitch-black pegasus walks up to the back entrance of the Dragon's Tail, carrying a wagon full of pungent fish. It stops, and looks spitefully into the doorway.(edited)
[5:32 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "We have around 6 boxes full of precious eggs and you are carring an absurd number of bananas..."
[5:33 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "Are there any horses nearby..."
[5:34 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula opens his palms. "If everything goes as I have prayed, nothing will happen in Khlin."
[5:34 PM] REWlego: "What is your plan, Sula? I want to help."
[5:35 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "But before that: Drew, are you sure we stole everything we had to?"
[5:42 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula grins. "The first step, was to get Drew-i to acquire the highest-quality Dwabi ingredients."
[5:42 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: He pulls out the list
[5:43 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: He drops another Banana(edited)
[5:43 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Uhh....here you take it"
[5:44 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Drew and Mund hear the agitated sounds of a Dark Pegasus waiting outside the restaurant.
[5:46 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: What the hell was that sound?! Was that... a Pegasus... Wait, why would it be here?
[5:47 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Hearing the sound, Sula fumbles around in his robe, tugging at a large black sheet. He hoped they were finished loading by now, or else...
[5:47 PM] REWlego: "And step two....?"
[5:48 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Oh, must be Shimi! come on Mund we gotta hurry!"(edited)
[5:48 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "Shimi?"
[5:48 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "Oh, ok ok!"
[5:48 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula mimed dunking his head into the water. "To use the Pelai to see if anyone would get involved."
[5:48 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "It's Sula's...ugh these banans...Pegasus!"
[5:49 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "I see, glad to hear that!"
[5:49 PM] REWlego: "Who did you have in mind?"
[5:49 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: Mund picks up some of the boxes and starts to run, to find where the sound came from.
[5:50 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "The gods warned me that you would try to interfere."
[5:51 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "Which brings us to the third step..."
[5:51 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: The Outlaws found a large wagon full of stinky fish, with a sinister black pegasus towing it.
[5:51 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: If my senses don't fail me... It must be from this way!(edited)
[5:52 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula pulled out a large black sheet from his robe.
[5:52 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: "...Distracting whoever got involved until...right now."
[5:52 PM] [SWEET] Kwakado: Sula took off into a full sprint towards the restaurant, the sheet unfurling like billowing smoke.
[5:53 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: Drew follows Mund
[5:53 PM] [SWEET] EndumAndTheWorld: "This is the... Pegasus, right?"
[5:54 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Yeah but don't touch Shimi"
[5:54 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "It's a special pegasus"
[5:54 PM] REWlego: "Sula- What the-!"
Leodin sprints after Sula at top speed.
