Putus Consilium

[Trashy Cinnabon]

Once they had withdrawn to the library, Sister Apathie closed the doors behind them, and walked over to the back wall. A mural was painted on it, showing what appeared to be the goddess Ren Eva, with her hands on the heads of two children who resembled Haruko and Hikaru. There were various symbols on it as well. She went and ran her fingers across the brooch of the young girl, then the belt of the young boy. Finally, she touched the goddess's forehead, and a crack was heard, as a section of the floor next to her vanished, revealing a stairwell. She grabbed a lantern and lit it up, then headed down. It opened out into another room, full of shelves containing various dusty tomes and scrolls. In the back, there was a door, but it did not appear to have any way of opening it. She turned to the two as they entered "Please, keep this place a secret, even Father Rache does not know this room exists. I think it may only open for me, being bestowed with the Mother's powers, otherwise Father rache would have surely found this place." She walked over to the shelf near the stone door, and pulled off a scroll. "This is strange, I have used a sight spell to check this door, and there is nothing but stone and soil behind it. It is, more or less, a door to nothing. But, this scroll details it being the door to some sort of maze, and a Sanctum within. But it does not mention how to open the way. Please, come look"

~The door to the trials of the Pillars, shall not be opened unless the time is of upmost correction, when those that will go, pass beyond the mazes and procure the relics within the Sanctum Deus. The Pillars then, being the children of Ren Eva, shall partake of the powers bestowed upon her also, and the Mother of Deus Temple shall bestow upon them her blessings, as servant of their will, and the will of Ren Eva.~
((I'll let Trace or Ice read the rest, come up with whatever you want, as long as it is at least semi-cryptic))

Sister Apathie gasped "Oh my, that is indeed strange. Perhaps they are woven into the thread of fate with us? I don't think it was just coincidence you meeting up with me. In any case, alow me to show you to your room, I must finish putting everything in order before I go to bed, I will see you in the morning" And with that, she led him out of the room, sealing it behind her. She led him down a corridor of blue, and into a small room with a blue canopy bed and walls of grey slate. Afterward, she proceeded to tend to her duties, then head to bed.
Around midnight, the door to Trace's room slowly creaked open, and and orcish figure was seen entering. Tiska crept over to trace's bed, and cautiously stood over him. His voice was an extremely low whisper "Sir.....sir wake up please.....bad here, bad man.....Father Rache bad man...."  

[Tee the Wicked]

Tiska turned around shakily "Shhh, bad man hear you, bad man has bad powers. Sir Trace not be seen!" He quickly but sneakily darted past them, and crept down the corridor. He stopped next to a door at the end of the hall, which was slightly ajar, but upon close listening, one could hear the voices within. Father Rache was speaking to a figure in signature puce robes, and Jinmaru was with her.

"Please understand, I have to have more time. These things don't just miraculously enter our possession, I am doing everything in my power to retrieve the Parilis Bible for you. Yog Sototh's revival will occur, and the door to the sanctum will be opened for you. Miss Gamaru, please, I do not need the assistance of your friend. I will honor my part of our bargain"  

[Tee the Wicked]

Tiska was shaking, having been frightened by the sudden rush "I....I...what! a Dragon! Where? Sister Apathie! Please, you must warn her if there is a dragon in the Church!" He tugged at Trace frantically. He was not like the typical orc, and instead of fearless viciousness, he exibited fright and care. His eyes showed it.

A loud Shriek came from Sister Apathie's room. The figure in robes let out a faint laugh "A present, Father, to remind you of our deal, and the penalty you will pay if you do not make good on your end of the bargain soon. I leave now, Jinmaru, I leave this in your hands, have fun, and try not to overexert yourself" She vanished as she teleported back to base.

Father Rache turned to Jinmaru and knelt "Please, I do not lie, all we have unearthed so far are clues to the whereabouts of the Parilis Bible. I believe it to be located somewhere in the old tower in the marsh to the north, a good week's time from here."

Inside her room, Apathie was in her nightgown, fighting off a large mob of blood puppets. She already had a large rip in her gown, with a nicely-sized bloody gash just above her left breast, which was exposed

Father Rache trembled, then nodded "I understand. Sister, forgive me, I must go. Please, do not try anything foolish, and keep him company as best you can" He turned and headed off, with the newfound aid Jinmaru had placed into hsi command.

Sister Apathie covered her breast quickly, meyeing Jinmaru suspiciously "Don't think for once you frighten me!" She walked over to him and touched his hand "You act all tough but you are just a hordog, aren't you? Well, I'm no easy pleasy, so if you want some of this you'll have to get me in the mood." She thought about her actions; it was the only way she could keep Tiska out of it. She went over to her bed, beneath the red silk canopy, and laid down upon it, her butt in the air "Well, I'm waiting, you came to recieve one of my special massages, didn't you. Well, get your big sweaty muscles over here, and I'll give you a way to relax. Don't worry, I will be gentle" She knew what she was getting herself into, it was just like before. That time, ages ago, when she had been a mere teenage girl on her own. Her mother had been killed for stealing, and she had learned to get money through being an exotic performer. She was no whore, but she was damn good at making men horny, and she was quite the exotic dancer. But this, she knew, was something she had to do. She cared too much for Tiska, to allow him to be swept intot his. Still, she was not going to simply allow him to use her body so easily. Hopefully, help would arrive before that could happen. Three days, she would manage somehow.

Tiska was grunting and snorting "Come on, you guys just left her there! And you call yourselves good persons! Send me back right now, if you won't help, then I will save Sister Apathie myself" He went and grabbed a spear offr the wall, then stumbled and fell as he lost his balance due to the weight.

Tiska nodded "Alright, understand what to do. Then what do we do? We go back? Or wait and see what dragon person is planning?"  

[Tee the Wicked]

Sister Apathie growled struggling to break free "Don't you dare lay a finger on Tiska! Just what is it you people are planning to do!?"
