Terran's Power Ceremony Terran Guild RP 03/10/13
Terran twirled a small branch between his two hands, staring at the inscription on it. His name, he had carved it into that branch himself. In his hands was a serious commitment to his people. Terran took a deep breath as he tossed the branch into the ceremonial fire pit. He looked over at his brother, Takis, as he did so and smiled proudly at the other faun. Terran was admittedly jealous of his brothers' success being part of Rais' inner circle. It was part of the reason Terran was here, he wanted to do his part and desperately wanted to feel that connection.
His eyes returned to the fire as they finished consuming the branch, the male was oddly quiet, perhaps it had something to do with the events of the maze not so long ago. The chieftain moved to the ashes and poured them into the pool and Terran watched him with the most respect, wondering if he would ever be worthy of joining the chieftain's inner circle as well. Terran watched the ashes come together with the dew, he knew it was going to have to drink that stuff. His mouth felt dry just thinking about it, but this was how he was to connect with the earth, with his people.
Finally, it was time for him to drink from the cup. Terran stared at the essence for a time, savoring the moment. He then lifted the cup to his mouth and drank, it felt cool and warm all at the same time, and he felt like it moved through his body like a vine moving up a tree. Terran wasn't sure when he had shut his eyes, but he now found himself opening them to the sound of the chieftain's voice. "Gatekeeper." Terran smiled, like his father. "Thank you," he said with a bow of his head as he searched out Captain Gulliver from the gathered inner circle. |

A Business Deal Axl Guild RP 03/18/13
Axl was at his usual spot, the large rock at the edge of the lake that had started it all. He strummed at the strings of his makeshift guitar a few times. "You weren't ever alone, you weren't..." he sung, but he paused abruptly making the string on his guitar pitch. "Ugh." he was really struggling with the words for this particular song. It was almost perfect, just one part of it wasn't working at.
"I've heard elephants make better music then that." A voice chortled at him.
"What would you know? I'm the best on this floating piece of dirt." Axl responded with a frown, not even looking up from his instrument.
"What would you know?" The voice repeated in mock. "Have you ever heard anyone else. Or have you been too involved in yourself to even try to make yourself better. So much untapped potential." The voice sighed dramatically.
Axl finally looked up, but saw no one. "Where are you?!" He shouted, anger building inside of him. He didn't like being toyed with, but who did?
"You really can't see anything beyond yourself can you?" A little ball, which Axl now finally noticed, chimed.
"I can see just fine. You're nothing." He turned away and started playing again.
"Don't you want to be famous Axl? No one even knows who you are. You have so much potential, so much raw emotion just waiting to be released." The ball of light moved so that it was back in Axl's line of sight, hover over the lake.
The ball of light had said the right word, 'famous'. Axl bit his lip and narrowed his eyes at the creature, "What are you getting at?"
The ball of light almost seemed to grin, but it didn't have a face so that was impossible. Bait and catch. "I help you become famous, think of me as your band manager."
Axl rolled his eyes, "Why would you want to do that, what's in it for you?"
"I get to stand at the sidelines of history" |
