Welcome to Gaia! ::

A few second passed and an orc came upon Arigoth when his back was turned and Arigoth quickly turned his blades backwards and stabde the orc the stood up pulling his blades out of the orcs body and turning them around. Ryku lept into the air and took an orc down and started to maul the orc biting and clawing until the orc was dead. Then Arigoth charged into the rest of the orcs slashing at anything in his path. whilst in battle with the group he felt a sharp pain in his side and leg, two orcs had stabbed him with spears. As soon as they pulled them out Arigoth thrusted both swords and stabbed both of them now only 2 had remained. The looked at each other then charged at Arioght swords in the air. Befor one of the got near Arigoth Ryku lept into the air and pounced on one of them mauling it till the orc was dead. The last one still charged at Arigoth soon they engaged in combat. The loud clanging of the swords could be heard fairly clear even from a distance, but almost as quickly as it had started it was over for Arigoth disosed of the orc quickly. When all the fighting was done Arigoth walked over to pick up his bow, Ryku was at his heals his beautiful white coat of fur was stained with blood. As soon as Arigoth had reached the spot where his bow lied he fell to his knees feeling sharp pains in his chest and throughout his body. He looked over to one of the spears on the ground and crawled over to it. He picked it up and examined it wincing in pain. "Poison" He said to himself. He threw it down adn stood up still in great pain. "We must get back to Crossroads my friend." He said weakly to ryku, His body was in great pain from the poison and felt like needles were inserted in every inch of his body. The started to walke back to crossroads, Ryku walked and Arigoth limped sort of.

The world was full of noise and flashing lights. He could hear his sister’s voice. So far away. Pain. So much pain. Burning. Need to get out. Pain. Sister. Aluure. Protect. Burning. Too many sounds. Not outside. Pain. His thoughts scattered and incoherent. But then, there was a whiff of Earth. Then of sunshine. His mind latches onto that thin thread of familiarity. Someone was holding his hand. The beat of a heart going too fast on the back of his hand. But the pain came back and stole moments. Was it moments? The raging storm in his mind explodes as the smell of wet earth and crushed plants fills his senses. His chest heaves as it rejects the foreign fumes. It was seeping into his mind, clawing away the demons. Something lifts off his chest, something warm splashes his cheek. More fumes. A strangled sound escapes his throat as his eyes fly open and stare unseeing at the ceiling. Body jerking, spasms racking him, body convulsing. Sounds. Smells. Lights. KEL! Aluure…
Eyes wide, Aluure looks over to the princess as she holds Kel's quaking body to minimize him injuring himself. The sounds coming from his mouth and the glassy blank look in his eyes creates unease and panic all over again. "My Lady, what do I do?"

((there... ya happy? =P))

Arigoth Stopped momentarily and walked back to a dead orc's corpse. He raised his sword and then chopped it's head off. He picked up the head sheathed his sword and limped back to Ryku. They then started to make they're way back to the Crossroads. "I have to hurry, I can feel the poison spreading through my body very quickly." He took out some herbs and chewed them in his mouth for a few moments in his mouth. He spat remains into his hand while they walked and placed them upon his wound as well as swalloed the bit that was in his mouth. "This won't cure me but it will slow it down for now." He said as they made they're way to crossroads which was several miles away.

Diandriel watches Kel " Naar is a poweful herb that reacts violently to clear away poisons of the mind. In many but not all cases the patient has been known to quake for up to an hour. The length and severity of the shakes depends on how deep the poison is into his system" she watches him silently for another moment "It woud seem that the poison is deeper then I originally thought. But for now there is nothing else to do, mixing herbs with naar can be fatal. We must only wait and watch for the spasms to end"

Pulling her bottom lip into her mouth, Aluure nods and resumes holding her brother's hand. The feel of his shaking sending tremors under her legs. Having always hated seeing pain she could do nothing about, a soft sob hiccups in her chest and bubbles out of her mouth. Fighting back tears, she hugs Kel's twitching hand. Tearing her eyes away from him, she looks around and forces a steely reserve within herself. "Is it possible to move him from the floor? Maybe into a room?" She asks to no one in particular as she looks at the stained floor a few steps from her. The dirty floor can't be good. And Kelva only has a bandage and what's left of his tunic blocking that floor from his wound. Yes, should move him. But can I? Would the Naar in his system be effected if we move him? Glaring at a stain on the floor, she tightens her hold on Kel's hand unknowingly.

Haseo had just finished the week-long travel to the crossroads, it had taken him this long because he was so small, and he had to take care of Chibi. He didnt run into too many obsticles, there would be the occasional goblin, but nothing too serious, and for that, he was greatfull, it seemed that his prayer to the goddess of fire, and the atalantea of fate for a safe travel had, more-or-less, been answered. the first thing that he decided to do was to rest for a while at the first place that he could find.
"where do you think we should go, huh Chibi?"
the dragon answered him with a 'prii' , and he took it that chibi didnt really care.after all, he was halfasleep on his head.
"how about that tavern over there? That looks nice."
Chibi spat out a puff of green fire and haseo went into the tavern.
As he passed , the barman shot him a dirty look, then he remembered that he was still wearing his fathers mask, so he removed it.

Turning her head to focus on Dia as she speaks, Aluure's mind wars with her worried heart. Looking back at Kel she bows her head. "No... No it wouldn't be wise. I just--" Against her will, tears begin to mist in her eyes as Kel's hand spasms in hers. Curling over his hand she closes her eyes tightly to stem the flow of tears burning behind her eyelids. "I-- I'm sorry my Lady. I'm so lost. I don't know what to do..." I feel so useless... Unable to heal properly. Unable to fight. I'm so... weak. Immersed in beating herself up, Aluure misses the increase in the times between Kel's spasm attacks.
