[I was grumpy yesterday too. My back is sore (as it has been for a long time now), and my wrist is really sore (same). The store I work with doesn't tell wrist support things in my size. So I walked ALL the way to Shoppers to get one, but they don't have the kind I need. They have big bulky ones, but I can't wear those while I'm working... Plus, they're like $25. I'm not going to spend that much on a wrist strap thingy... So I was sad because it seems there is no end to my pain ever...]
Nina teleported onto the Atlantis, assuing Nolan would follow.

Nolan eyed the teleportation contraption briefly, before stepping into it and leaving the lunatic Admiral behind. Thank God, Nolan thought, stepping out of his newly materialized spot to view his surroundings.
((Does he bite/kick/hit/assault/kill?))

(world of warcraft. Nothing says 'badass' quite like a bomb-throwing level 61 Death Knight in a hard hat. Working on getting him a helicopter, and then, a motorcycle. Motorcycles rule in WoW.)

And her final words were... "(( xd I just submitted some stuff to the Art arena, well, on my second entry, some pervy moron came on there commenting and was talking about how "that's a great place to put hole in her outfit!" .....*bursts out laughing* it's not even a frickin' hole!

"((WHATEVER!! scream Just pick a random planet, it's your turn to pick a planet, anyway. xd Techni picked the first destination (Eros), SPI picked the second (Finding the Midas/Ascendant Dragon), I picked the third (Syberius), now YOU get to choose! xd )) " And then...she faded to darkness.

Suddenly, a brief but powerful surge of energy pulsed through Maggie. She was... home. Home. Home.
Eseptos was far below, through the clouds and the rain and the wind and the sky. It wouldn't come into view for a bit, until they were close enough to fall under all four of the layers of clouds that lingered above the planet's surface.
Eseptos was a world rich in life. Or, it used to be. Used to, there would be grassy plains, towering forests, stretching deserts, shrouded bogs, glimmering lakes, and, every so often on the horizon, a castle of medieval technological advancement.
Now, the land was barren and decrepit. No grass grew from the land. It was all... dirt. Dirt, rocks, and pollution from the humans.
Speaking of the humans, they possessed the only cities and castles now. Three cities, to be exact, huge mining cities, that focused on housing and feeding the huge colonies of miners come to Eseptos for easily-attainable if not easy work.
All forests were cut down. Lakes, drained of life. Deserts, lost among the death spread far across the land. The only way to survive now was to artificially grow food from gigantic hydroponic farming plants. Solar energy was the only source of power in the entire planet.
These three cities were huge, to say the least, bigger than the largest city you'd ever find in twenty-first century Earth. Ten times as big, easily. These cities were the three central mining hubs for the humans. Worse, they also housed the Eseptians either corrupted or enslaved by humans. Indeed, an Eseptian could do much more work than a regular human in a work day, and only ate twice as much. A fair trade, especially since the slaves needed not to be paid.
Of course, there were the Eseptians who resisted this murderous take-over of their planet. But not enough. Too few, too slow, for the great human onslaught. Now, Eseptos was a planet of crude technology, though it wouldn't reach the technological level of twenty-first century Earth naturally for another eight hundred years, or so.
There were also the humans who helped the resistance. Devvri and Keth, both dear friends of Maggie's, were two such humans. They embraced the medieval era, and fought only with weaponry of that time.
Thing was, Eseptians had magic on their side. Not magic, really, but the intense psychic powers that Maggie possessed - they've been used to sabotage human settlement on Eseptos for hundreds of years. Maggie was one such rare Shaman, as they were dubbed.
Iluclaara, she was, the Shaman. Also, the vessel for the psychogeist which was the pinnacle of Eseptian achievement.
The ones who resisted the humans were Shamans by oath, but unlike Maggie, they weren't Shamans by blood. It truly wasn't magic, or really any special gift. But thinning of bloodlines have left Maggie as the only known invoker of the psychogeist. Except, the Shaman Order have not been content to let her become aware of this in her own time. They use it, and steadily kill Maggie in the process.
Now land was coming into view. Far too fast, as well. The dark, blackened and charred landscape below them. To the north, a city was barely visible, lights on and illuminating a massive radius in all directions, at all times. The mining never stopped. The precious minerals and ores were always sought, and taken, from Eseptos.
As they fell, Maggie cried.
