Inspired by the Rontage's attack on Falavor, the goblins are planning an attack of their own in capital city of the dwarfs. However, they are having trouble since the city is basically a fortress.

Garlof, the human country that's constantly at war, is at it again. This time, they're attacking the peaceful giants. Luvento is currently trying to stop them.

The pixies have seen a small shortage of wonder dust in the north. They do not know why.

The Oracle of the West has announced that he has sided with the Oracle of the North. He claims that he too is seeing darkness in the future. The Oracle of the East is still undecided on the subject. However, the Oracle of the East did predict a new prophecy.

Prediction:
[i]The skies of dawn,
Will meet what is drawn,
Return of the new
Fall off the blue.[/i]

No one is sure of what it means, but many speculate that something dangerous will fall from the sky.

This kind of RP is great for those who want to start out, or just refresh on their skills. Expect my app sometime tomorrow.

It's meant to be for ALL roleplayers, but yes, it's great for starters. =D

Also guys, the Oracle of the East's prediction is open for discussion on what could and should it be.

I hope this doesn't offend your guys Flandre, but Jyran isn't going to be using those claws. Unless maybe life and death. An offering of false claws is an insult to a Dis Klahn, implying that he or she is either a poor hunter and that they are incapable of caring for themselves. It also implies great dishonor to them. They rarely use any close combat weapons aside from their natural ones. One of the greatest punishments in the society is declawing and fang filing. Even worse than death.

East Oracle-
[i]
The skies of dawn,[/i]
The eastern sky possibly. Morning is too obvious an interpretation for a prediction. It could also be a location, a temple of some sorts.

[i]Will meet what is drawn,[/i]
Something summoned maybe? Or a force, evil or otherwise, attracted by something within the land? If the first line refers to a temple, something might active within to summon or 'draw' something

[i]Return of the new[/i]
Maybe a civilization or race that lived in Kerulian before the present beings did. Of course, it could be a new attempt at taking control. Maybe 'the new' should be 'The New,' capitalized. It could be a transcription error that led to it not being done.

[i]Fall off the blue.[/i]
Reference to a higher plane of existence? Not they said fallen, so something akin to fallen angels. They could be The New referred to in the previous line. And if they are, my temple idea from the first line makes sense, as people might have worshiped them or possibly sealed them.

The entire verse could be a warning of the possibility of certain factors and conditions being met to summon/release/attract an ancient force that once ruled the land.

hmm... need to come up with some Dis Klahn traditional stories.

@ Grey: Sorry about that, but it's okay, Fiera could possibly Transmute Silver easily, but those claws are actually meant to channel magic rather than hand to hand combat, The Halberd and the Scythe is made from a much harder Silver alloy

According to the Beliefs of the Viernar, Silver is an extremely good conductor and amplifier of magic, so the council was implying that he's a weak magic user rather than a weak hunter

EDIT: The Spirit council can see what's going on to all races, and they saw some Dis Klahn laughing at some Close-Quarters Weapon wielding cat, so they Gave Fiera an order to turn it whatever Long-Ranged weapon into she wished, she pictured in her mind what would happen if Jyran used a Regular bow, so she thought of a weapon that only Dis Klahn could use for Long Range, which is now in the dictionary at post 154

East Oracle-
[i]
The skies of dawn,[/i]
The eastern sky possibly. Morning is too obvious an interpretation for a prediction. It could also be a location, a temple of some sorts.

[b]It makes sense since the sun rises at the east. It also makes sense since the Oracle of the East was first to see this. If we're right, whatever it is, it should be at the East.[/b]

[i]Will meet what is drawn,[/i]
Something summoned maybe? Or a force, evil or otherwise, attracted by something within the land? If the first line refers to a temple, something might active within to summon or 'draw' something

[b]The sky will meet it whatever this thing is. If it's a temple, it would have to be pretty tall.[/b]

[i]Return of the new[/i]
Maybe a civilization or race that lived in Kerulian before the present beings did. Of course, it could be a new attempt at taking control. Maybe 'the new' should be 'The New,' capitalized. It could be a transcription error that led to it not being done.

[b]This line confuses me the most since it's an oxymoron. It can't return if it's new, unless it was here before. But then it wouldn't be new. I don't know what to say about this line...[/b]

[i]Fall off the blue.[/i]

[b]I'm thinking this line simply means that the blue is the sky. A cloudless morning blue sky to be exact...[/b]

[i]The Skies of Dawn[/i]

The Sky above a land called Dawn? Or, to relate to the last line, a sea called the Skies, due to reflections and such. Then it would be an eastern sea.
Or, maybe, a race called the Skies(maybe Flying Creatures?) that live in the land called Dawn. The Skies of Dawn(Not the Skies of [b]the[/b] dawn, which would be more appropriate when talking about the east)

[i]Will Meet What is drawn[/i]

[s]Kris draws some magical demon beast capable of destroying the world in a blink of an eye in his book, and it comes to life. Then it dives into the sea and explodes the earth.[/s]
Summoned thing sounds about right. And it appears/summoned in the place in line 1. Maybe a Mistake, and it's meant to say We'll. (Or maybe the reporter didn't understand the Oracle's Accent.)

[i]Return of the New[/i]

Sort of agree with what he was talking about, with the race called The New. Cant really think of anything else.

[i]Fall off the Blue[/i]

Because it says off, maybe the world is flat, and to defeat this rising darkness, or whatever, we have to sail off the edge of the world into the space beyond. (With this it could be the Sky or the Sea.)
Or, the New could be fighting a species called the Blue, and it says the fall of the blue, so the New will win.

[i]The skies of dawn,
Will meet what is drawn,
Return of the new
Fall off the blue.[/i]

New Interpretation: I just realized that the verse may be referring to a meteor shower, possibly of epic proportions. Though this interpretation is based solely (almost) on science an not magic of any kind.

[i]The skies of dawn,[/i]
Like I said, the eastern sky again.

[i]Will meet what is drawn,[/i]
Meteorites drawn from space, whether naturally or by some arcane means/

[i]Return of the new[/i]
meteorites, asteroids, comets, they are all left-overs from the formation of planets, so although they are technically quite old, they themselves are pretty new. And if they were leftover from the formation of the world, they are returning/

[i]Fall off the blue.[/i]
They fall from the sky to strike the land. That sounds like falling off the blue to me.

(Hey, this can go in one of those tabloids! The End is coming from Above!)

I've interpreted this new prophecy in several ways, one of them being the death of Rhett actually, which is the one most differing to what has already been said. Let me give you the rundown of it ;)

[i]The skies of dawn,
[/i]Well the skies of dawn would imply the thing that is in fact lethal to Rhett himself, along with all other Lamias. He would meet the sun basically, if by choice, by accident or something else is something you can't tell by this line of course. But the fact that Rhett + Dawn doesn't mix very well is the main factor here.

[i]Will meet what is drawn,[/i]
What is drawn, that would be Rhett in this case. This line in conjunction with line one also eliminates the fact that Rhett is killed by the dawn as an accident or by force. he's drawn to it for some reason, which is strange, but perhaps there is something that demands his sacrifice that causes him to be drawn to it? The being drawn to the dawn could of course be caused by someone else, through magic perhaps, but this is something we cannot be certain of.

[i]Return of the new[/i]
This would be connected to Rhett coming back to life, but not as a Lamia. As such he would in fact be new and he would be returning at the same time. What he would return as is something that is unknown. The most reasonable guess would be that he turned human again, but as he has been a human before he was a Lamia this would cause him not to be new in a sense. Maybe he would be the birth of a new race?

[i]Fall off the blue[/i]
This is the one part I have troubles with connecting to the rest of the prophecy. I have a couple of ideas here though.

1. The rebirth of Rhett as this "New" will cause another Race which was once upon a time referred to as "The Blue" to fall. If this means their extinction or their lands being taken over by another country/race/blah I cannot say. I would think it would mean the death of them though.

2. The Blue can also refer to the skies. The fall of them however is something that I have interpreted as a couple of things though.
- As stated earlier, it's a meteor shower. Perhaps this just refers to there being a meteor shower during the night that preceeds the death of Rhett OR that there will be a meteor shower during the night when he comes back as this "New".
- The fall of the blue also makes me think that the skies will no longer be blue i.e something causing Kerulia to fall into an eternal night.

3. The blue can also refer to the Ocean and that when Rhett dies/rises they will start to disappear due to extreme draughts. This could of course be joined with alternative 1 of this section as the lack of oceans would cause all water living species to die out.


that's my 2 cents on this prophecy. It's kind of egotistical in a sense, but as I said it's the only idea that came to me that hasn't already been added in here by someone else :)



and blargh: a scythe? D: He has like... 9-10 daggers and a short sword already, I hoped for another sword/dagger as he's specialized in these (obviously). Oh well, the scythe could be interesting. But he'll probably not use it to begin with. Hell, he'll probably not even travel with you in the beginning. He'll be grateful for the help to keep him alive, but other than that he'll probably take off again. (Hell come around eventually, just bug him for long enough and have them prove time and time again they don't want to kill him)

@ Jake: My character is like "You piss her off at night or under shadows, you're dead from her extremely powerful magic, You commit a sin where it isn't instinctive(An Instinctive Sin is one you have to do to live(Like killing for food)), you're going to piss her off"

AKA, You try to level Mithwendor, you're going to have to go through Fiera to do so, and Fiera being capable of such powerful magic, you are very likely to die in battle against her

@ Red: Fiera's persistant, oh and By the way, Veirnars believe that Silver conducts magic, The Scythe being some kind of Silver-Steel Alloy(The handle is purely steel in case Lamias are weak to Silver as most vampires are), Your scythe is going to have some very strange properties, similar to Jyran's bow, This also goes for your Halberd Chirstia....
