Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sajuuk did not react too well to being suddenly teleported down the stairs. he did like some warning when people were going to do that since he was already disoriented. "Okay... that was strange." he said as he put an arm around Rose. he needed to get moving, work the stiffness out of his body and get everything going. "I do not know exactly what I am looking for but I will know it when I see it. It will be some kind of item that I will be drawn to. It is hard to explain really. You will see when we get there. though after that I have no idea what will happen." He said.

Sajuuk chuckled a little, "Well, I don't know how much you know about our family and its little secrets. There are certain items that have been crafted by us that have the ability to conceal things within them. My amulet and fathers are two such items but not the only ones. the singing wall was another such thing were we would take the soul of a person and lock it away. It is something of a skill we developed. I think what I am looking for is within these walls and that this goddess imprisoned herself in something in order to protect herself but depending on what she trapped herself in will... well, it means that she might not be able to get freedom." Said Sajuuk as he walked over to what looked like an ordinary wall and placed a hand upon it. "Another one of our little secrets." Said Sajuuk as he pressed against the wall and muttered something under his breath. the wall retracted, revealing a passageway to Shadow's personal armoury where he kept his more special items. Sajuuk walked down the hall to the summoning circle and looked to the shelves where Shadow kept his things. It took him a while but he noticed a dagger that had a slight glow to it and picked it up. "Well, there you are.... now how do we get you out of it..." Said Sajuuk. this was not good at all but as he took a hold of it a great surge of energy passed from it and into Sajuuk causing him to fall to the floor and drop the dagger.

"The ring hold special significance but not the same. We craft things to hold but rings are more... powerful once you know how to use it." Said Sajuuk as he struggled to his feet. "My amulet holds nothing right now but then again something could creep in without my knowing. And yes the singing wall can be troublesome at times but that is what they get." Said Sajuuk. He seethed the dagger and slowly started to walk out of the armoury. "You know that fathers old sword has someone inside of it? That is why it drains the blood of its victims." Said Sajuuk. he always liked that little fact that so few actually knew. it was not exactly widely broadcast that the Von Carstine line could trap the very beings of others until the end. "Now, let us go to the lake. It is time to talk to everyone and plan our next move. I just hope my lady Skadi can provide some insight." he said.

"That it will and it has some other..... attributes." Said Sajuuk. He was not going to give away too much about the rings. They were crafted with great difficulty and generally with a specific purpose in mind. "Yes, the blood drinker sword has a soul within it. That is why Father would talk to his sword on occasion.... well I don't know if you have ever seen that one but he does or did." Shortly after he finished speaking he felt himself being transported to the top of the crypt. he really really hated it when people did that to him. "Well, something must have rubbed her the wrong way." Said Sajuuk to himself as he waited for Rose to get up here. He kept a tight hold on the dagger but it felt empty now for what ever reason. He thought on it for a moment before he heard a voice. "Now that I am back together again I can speak to you out side of your dreams. I am free from one vessel and trapped in another without any physical form. You are now my Avatar in more than the usual sense Sajuuk." Said the voice. Sajuuk thought himself insane for a moment but given all the strange things that had been happening he did just run with it. "We will find a way to fix that so you can walk freely once more and well help us with our battle to come."

"Well, Marcus will get a very nasty shock when it talks to him and trust e, it always talk in the end. Seriously, the thing does not shut up at times." Said Sajuuk. he knew that Rose was not really sorry about transporting him up here but he could not quite figure out why she was acting this way. "Erm... she says you won't be able to heard it because of the nature of our relationship between a god and their avatar. it is a way of protecting the conversations from prying ears and minds and right now it is the only way to communicate until we get her into some sort of physical body. Though she does thank you for being willing to assist her." Said Sajuuk. he did feel strange about communicating for someone else in such a way. he let it go for now and walked through to the lake where everyone was waiting. Nolaloth did not even bother to change back into his half dragon form and just stayed as his full dragon. The two Astral beings sat at either side of his head that lay on the ground with a small fire in front of them. Sajuuk took a seat in front of the fire and collected his thoughts. It was not going to be easy to ask this of them after all.

Sajuuk sat in silence for a while, he was talking things over with Skadi in his mind but also trying to figure out what was the best course of action in this. None of it really did look good, they were small in number and going to be fighting against a god while their own one was not able to fight but first Skadi had him say something to Rose, "Em... Skadi says Yes. I have no idea why but she wanted me to tell you that." Said Sajuuk before going onto other things. "What I am going to ask you is not easy for me. I have found the goddess that can help us in our fight against Sokar but I still need to find a way to bring her into this world. Until then I need to ask you all to head to Nehekara and side with Nagash, help him in his struggle against the god Sokar. With your combined might you should be able to hold him back for a time until we can stand against him. If he take control of Nehekara then our battle will be much more difficult. You may not survive the coming battle but can we really risk not acting now?" Said Sajuuk to the group. There was a heavy silence as they all considered this and it was Nolaloth that was the first to speak. "Your goddess and I are opposed elementally but Nolalothkaragasent will assist Nagash in his fight and protect Nehekara. The power of a dragon is at your disposal." Said Nolaloth. he would do what he could but even a dragon was no match for a god. All he could do was assist in the ground battles as close air support or perhaps in close quarters. the astral beings nodded when Nolaloth finished speaking. "We will assist in this but Uriel will remain behind for now. She has some business here first before moving on to join us." Said Azreal. This was something No astral being could turn away from. The risk was too great and their nature would not allow them to leave. The silent Uriel had her own plan and would need to approach it with care.

Nolaloth looked to Rose, "Do not worry about me little Rose. I have managed to survive this long without being in full control of my abilities and it is best that we leave quickly. Just pray for me Rose, that is all I need. Come Azreal, we will take the fight to them." Said Nolaloth as he stood and started to wander down to the portal. Azreal gave Uriel a small hug before walking off after Nolaloth. Uriel remained where she was, watching Sajuuk from under her deep hood with her golden eyes. Something was forming in her head at this time but approaching with it would not be so easy. She would wait a while, patients was a virtue that she was good with. If anyone managed to see inside her hood to her face they would have seen the tiny hooks of a smile at the very edge of her lips.

Sajuuk looked to Rose, "I will tell you what to do when I actually know what we can do. I know you can survive in fight but I really do not know what you could do in that sort of mass battle situation. As for me i need to find a way to get her into this world. We will think of something." Sajuuk paused for a moment. "Skadi says yes she does know and wants me to let you know that you are thinking too loud." Said Sajuuk, he was a little confused about all of this but he did not need to understand any of it and just go with it for now. "Let us head back to the manor, I need to look at a few things." He said as he stood. Uriel stood shortly after.

Sajuuk nodded, "Yes some food would be good actually. With all my passing out and having beings move into my body and such.... I could use something to eat." Said Sajuuk as he followed Rose back to the manor. It was during this time that he spoke for Skadi, "She says, I cannot make him see something against his will. besides I know your relation to them and find it unnatural. I will not promote such things." Said Sajuuk. he was quite confused by this. it was all so strange to him to be only one small part of a greater conversation. made him feel a little uncomfortable. he also noticed that Uriel had been following them, Rose had not given her any actual time to respond so she followed and entered the manor along with them. She still had not said a word yet, it seemed more like she was waiting for something than anything else right now. It was slightly unsettling but little could be done. her smile was still there, her gaze focused, purposeful, she wanted to speak but was not too keen on speaking around others. She would need to wait until the party had separated before approaching.
