The Mana-Verse

[Blue Valkyrie]

(But he's still too busy watching the eating contest that's not done yet.....unless something else is going on since they asked for just Aya.)

(You'll see  ))

[Sakura Leic]

(Oh god I think I have an idea, curse you doll lady.)

[Fxeni]

(Err... should I get Fxeni out of there, or is it fine that he's still at the table? )

[Sakura Leic]

(Well Calien is still there and he and Sakura still have the Walkie Talkie stones, so maybe it's fine?   I don't know.   But seriously I wish I had name for those stones.

[spoiler]I mean I just can't call them Pirate's Charms after all, we aren't Pirates.[/spoiler])

[Phi]

(So basically, 95% of the group aren't even watching the contest... Pretty much only the Dwarves.

And the contest should be over in like two more posts, I'd estimate.)

[Sakura Leic]

(To be fair the Prof has bum hearing and is scared of the Dwarves, Toshi has really sensitive hearing, Sakura just wanted to make sure the Prof doesn't get into trouble mostly and Aya just couldn't stand the noise.  Calien is still there since he can give stomach remedies and make tea.  Also the Chicken is still there and Yin is with Sakura for the record.)

(EDIT: Also to stall things more for the contest and Aya maybe we should have Sakura ask Riagan where the Cheval is so she can deposit the dozen rocks she picked up?)

[Blue Valkyrie]

((Up to you, you'll hear the request for her to meet the king that way))

[Sakura Leic]

(Yeah that's what I was thinking.)

[Quickman]

((Prof has a Bag of Holding.  You need to stash some stones, he can stash them.))

[Sakura Leic]

(Okay then we'll just have a nice discussion with Riagan about certain things like the Prof's situation and other stuff until the eating contest is over.  Just don't mention Aya until that point.)

[Protoman Blues]

"The world outside is beautiful--but there seems to be a lot of distrust between the different races outside, this place isn't alone in that. Someday I hope everyone can get along." Aya smiles thoughtfully. "So-whats the city down below like--"

Suddenly a guard runs up to Riagan. "My apologies young lord, I bring word from your father. He wishes to speak with Aya in the war room as soon as possible."

"I should probably join you and my father!" Riagan stated.

[Quickman]

((So, will Riagan be heading by the current party at any time, or should we regroup elsewhere?))

[Fxeni]

(Give the stuff to the Prof; I'd wager the Cheval isn't a safe place for it.)

[Protoman Blues]

(I was having Riagan join Aya with King Pyritecrusher for reasons)

[Sakura Leic]

(Oh I was assuming that it was a trap and they wanted to get Aya alone since the King is still in the mess hall watching the eating contest.  Like Doll Master sent a Dwarf Puppet or mind contolled Dwarf to lure her to a trap or something.)

[Blue Valkyrie]

"I'm sorry mylord just the lady, your father request you remain with our guests." The guard responds.

"Alright, I guess I'll go then." Aya shrugs as the guard leads her down into the halls again.

[Sakura Leic]

(Yup I knew that was going to happen.)

[Blue Valkyrie]

((Pretty much, anyone care for me to type up aya's side of things?))

[Sakura Leic]

(Maybe after Phi types another eating contest post?  I mean he had 2 left and we all want to see the results of that before [parasitic bomb] goes to hell.)

[Blue Valkyrie]

((Will start up one part of this right now, Phi's part won't be interrupted by that.))

Just as Aya and the guard leave another soldier runs up to Riagan "M'lord!" he pants as if he had run quite far "S-Sir there is something wrong up at the watch tower! S-Some sort of portal! monsters are attacking!" He looks panicked and blood on his shoulder seems to indicate things were as bad as he claims.

[Sakura Leic]

(Should my party find Riagan?)

[Blue Valkyrie]

(Should my party find Riagan?)

(yes,would be for the best)

[Sakura Leic]

(Okay then the others will still be in the Mess Room while the action happens.)

"Riagan, what's wrong?!" Sakura asked as she ran up and saw the bloodied soldier.

(Now we'll wait for PB.)

[Protoman Blues]

"We are under attack!!" Riagan said to Sakura while he grabbed his sledgehammer and clutched it angrily with his hands. "You. Send word to the King. Muster our forces." looking at the injured guard.

"You. Make sure your party is safe." Riagan said while looking at Sakura. "I shall go hold this menace off until my fellow dwarves arrive!"

[Sakura Leic]

"Raigan you can't go alone, you don't know what's out there!" Sakura shouted as she ran up to him.
