Y'know, I buy all the presents I give out in aquariums.. As Jessie hurriedly pulled Coline from the room, Lorika stepped forward to address the man in the strange armour who'd appeared at the door.
"I am High Priestess Lorika," she informed him, in her calmest tone "What can I do for you?"
...I have the receipts to prove it. (( LOLSHORT *rocks out* ))

Do I contol the blades in my hands?He stepped inwards, closing the door behind him, knowing this was not truly the most benevolent looking action. walking a slight ways inside, he turned, then, not fast, but by no means slow, he lowered himself to one knee on the floor. "I give myself to thee, in body and soul. By my honor, I will serve thee, 'til death do I meet, or until a time from which you relieve me of my oath. "My life is in your hands, and my soul, yours to watch. Upon pain of Damnation, I will lay down for you everything that is my life, and should you wish it, at any moment. "My name is Storm, Alucard Drax, Dravok, Vhirahn, And my life is now yours." At this point, he lifted his head, waiting for the high lady to allow him to rise. Or do they control me?

Lorika wasn't even embarrassed by the man's vows - no, she was too stunned to be embarrassed.
"Ah-um," she said, as he turned his gaze up to her. Looking incredulously round at Panda and Feline, she gave a small laugh "Another man pledging his life to me...! This is becoming... rather comical..."
Comical indeed. It had been drilled into her for years that no man could ever love her - no man except him. It was one of the ways he kept her cowed. Now it appeared she had a whole handful of men itching for her attention...! Ha!
"Please, stand up," she said pleasantly, a little moved by the emotion with which he'd spoken, and flattered by the whole thought of the implications of his promise. "I... I'm honoured at your choice to serve me..." SERVE her! Incredible!
"Which name would you prefer that I called you? And... and could you tell me exactly what has brought this about?" she laughed, gazing at him deeply, with interest.
...and you will be lonesome.

Harata smiled,"That's awesome. I'm hungry. I think I'll go to the temple. You wanna come with?" She offered a hand to Alexi to help her up.

Do I contol the blades in my hands?"The true name, bestowed to me at the beginning of the realms by lord Ao, is imply Storm Vhirahn. in the realms it is something that can allow others to control you, or allow you to achieve your true destiny." He stopped then sighing at the recollection of his lost homeland, then looked back. I would be honored if you would use my name, Mistress Lorika." then as he had nothing he could say, he asked, "is there anything you would wish of me at this time?" Or do they control me?

"Yes, there is," she replied, blinking at him "Could you please... tell me what it is that brought you to doing me this great honour? I cannot imagine what I've done to deserve it..."
...and you will be lonesome.

Do I contol the blades in my hands?"I am obligated to do what I feel is right. I must.. Atone and fight my sins, and devotion to you will help me. My involvement in what you wish of me will keep me from myself... and my heritage." Storm Sighed at that point. How long would he ignore it? How long would he procrastinate in getting back? "My lady, your cause is just, and my honor would have me serve you, for the sake of goodness. My previous actions, they must be righted. "I just feel like I owe you and the Order; I feel justified in my decision." Or do they control me? [[Yays. I posted my reasons]]

"Sure!" Alexi said, taking Harata's hand. "Actually, I'm quite hungry too. A friend of mine went out looking for food a while ago, but he hasn't come back...but that's okay, because he always finds me anyway."

Lorika regarded him, and nodded at his final point. "I believe that that is an honourable cause. You... you have travelled far to be with us today? I'm afraid I don't recognise the realms you speak of..."
...and you will be lonesome.

Harata began to wander to the temple with Alexi. She liked the girl, she was pleasant, and had, as of yet, done nothing to offend Harata.

Do I contol the blades in my hands?"Well, all planes of existence are within the realms, but one being so polar to the prime material plane would normally have one call the lands I am from simply 'the realms'." Knowing this would be extremely confusing, he had to be a bit more easy on this. "Think of it this way. the 'realms' simply describes all planes of existence everywhere, but one from the Realm Toril will simply call Toril 'the realms' due to the domains of peoples on it." Drawing in breath, he thought out the next little bit carefully. "think of Toril to be a serving of a particular food on a dinner plate, full of different other foods. These other foods are the other normal realms of existence, for example this one, and this plate is quite full. "now imagine this plate, sitting on a tower, or rod, sculpted of many different interlocking and balancing stones, holding up the plate, sitting on two black pieces, equally. One of the black pieces is an extraordinary colorless black, one of ordered evil, the other of chaos, swirling with all the colors but remaining black. these all comprise the lower planes. "then comes a tower from the center of the plate, screaming high into the heavens, made of almost anything you can find, but you can't really see the top. These are the higher and highest planes. And at the very top (and few know this) there is a structure made of pure divinity, a realm where the lord god Ao presides. "But it doesn't end here. From there, a strand of rope, or seemingly one, goes higher, into a nexus for the other lord gods of other realms. " With this lengthy explanation, Storm had to catch his breath, though he smiled while doing so. "Most likely, Gaia is a polar realm to my own, one not in the same pillar, but still connected to the nexus." storm had spent months studying, well, forced to, in the walled fortress of Candle Keep, a monastery kept over by the priests of Oghma, who was the god of knowledge. they had books on every subject, and if one could sneak either high or low enough, they would find an old tome with words that told of unimaginable things. Knowledge of the other realms did not come lightly to prime (beings of the prime material) and normally, the primes wouldn't even start to comprehend them. This was the first sign given to Storm that he was more than a Prime.... Or do they control me?

This was Alexi's first time being inside the Temple. It was beautiful, with ornate detailings she never could have imagined. Even though she was a member of the Benevolent Order, she'd always thought of herself as kind of an outcast, especially during the war. "Wow," she said, awestruck.

"I... see..." she said uncertainly, trying very hard to get her mind around the concepts "I thereby assume that it has been a very long ordeal for you to seek us out."
...and you will be lonesome.

Do I contol the blades in my hands?"Well," he said chucking to himself," if I said that, I would be lying. I was actually moved from my home during... A very eventful time. A man who was a consort to the goddess of magic.. He brought me here for my own life." He had to stop several times, trying to word it. "He is a great mage, that Elminster.." he thought aloud, trailing off. Or do they control me?

"That's fascinating!" she cried, clapping her hands together "Are you a mage yourself, sir?"
...and you will be lonesome.
