Two Days, Two Nights, Holy Shit!
Talk about "Dancing With the Stars". The kid went missing and was some how dancing in the sky with Ip. I'm not sure if my last screw has come loose, cause the wheels came off tonight! The kid and Princess seem to know this tiny God, who replaced Xoya's arm with his own (only its big some how?). Apparently he is old friends with Ki' and her family? The princess (who is actually a princess. Nailed It!) just keeps getting weirder. I can't say I followed most of their stories. Something about Ip and Okq being created from the body of their father after he was stepped on by a horse? Then more fantastic stories of their lives being saved by the sun goddess back in the day? It was strange to say the least. One story did have an odd bit sense to it. The idea that there are other worlds with other people. The fact that the voices of the gods put imagination and inspiration into our minds. (could the PACK really be real?) I can't say that I have felt many gods, but Tinker's Puau has called to me since I was a child. Somehow, when I was down, when I would sit next to his image and chat, I felt better. When I was really lucky, I found inspiration. I hope I'm not crazy or that I didn't just drink really bad water. I'd like to believe I can meet Puau in 28 days.
Now it's time to save the world or die trying. Xhoya and Ki' scouted ahead (they need a little training in that regard. You don't let yourself get so far out of range when people are offering you cover fire. Sarg and I need to give them some more guidance so our maneuvers are better next time.) They found a good entrance to the mine, after a false scare. We trapsed down the holes that formerly contained the massive chains that held the scorpion in place. Rusty, my new trusty bat scouting the way. We got a little lost and some "kind" rust mites helped to show us the way.
Arriving on the upper level we were able to convince some cultists to come "help us" in the corridor. They went down quickly, but unfortunately the droid gave us more trouble. Xhoya, Echo and I figured out how to control the collars on the slaves so they don't have to breath on the chains. We shut down the rest of the machines (then I destroyed a few when we knew it wouldn't hurt the dragon born. No sense in allowing the cultists to continue on business as usual if they we fail. From the discovered password they don't seem to really know how this equipment works or how to read primoradial, despite the fact that it is all over their consoles and (later were found out) tattooed on their bodies. A perversion of the names of the Gods. )
The smokey asshole, known as the ghost appeared and I'll admit I was nervous. Luckily, Lux, Xhoya and I all landed some spells and his ass was frozen to the ground, literally, shocked and laughing his ass off against his will. He still had the nerve to try threatening us. Lux and Ki, decided to turn his plan against him and gave him some flying lessons. Too bad he was too enchanted to learn and he did a great impression of a Jaxon Pollock on the floor, so expressive! Jaxon went down to kick some ass while the rest of us used our range to our advantage. One by one the droids and cultist assholes (who can climb walls and became less than human) fell.
Just when we thought we had won it seemed like the ultimate bad guy was going to fight us, but he was just a captive of the most beautiful mech suit on earth. (which made on sense a the time) Until we found that project X was a keeper who'd been held against his will. He was nearly dead from mana sickness and Ki' was beside herself with grief, seeing one of her ancestors treated so terribly. I wasn't sure what I could do, I'd hoped the cube could drain him of the magic overload, but Xhoya said it doesn't work that way. Unexpectedly, Gambit traded his immortality to save him. It looked like he would pay the ultimate price, when I remembered that Ki mentioned the power of prayer. Lux used her influence to get millions of followers to help us give G-man the strength to live. Lux also revealed that she is part wolf.
We talked about what the world might be and how it might be a good idea to bring the gods back in a real way. We chatted on and off during the about Lux using her platform to start a movement where people practice gratitude and embrace their authentic selves. I think we are slowly starting to open up to each other. (Is this what girl talk is like? I really didn't grow up with many gal pals and I'm 52 now, so... better late than never?) Anyway, I hope that we can all be a positive influence in the world. I'm okay if my part is a little less public.
Speaking of my part, I think I'll need to get in touch with Pops about our supply chain. The free market means our shit can end up in all sorts of hands. Our larger guild (also the GSG Gnome Smith' Guild, metal division (MSG sounded too shady) is responsible for all things metallic, more or less (we even sponsor a few metal bands!) Anyway, we need to do some tracking on the supply chain end of things for some serious smelting equipment. This industrial shit isn't cheep and it is hard to transport. There has to be a record of it going somewhere. I know we think they are controlling info (I'll get to that in a sec) but I'm willing to bet they didn't think to shred their receipts and clean up the whole digital paper trail. People aren't usually that meticulous. I can't tell you how many times the police have proven premeditation just by the date of sale we provide on a fire arm. (Take it from me, if it's within a few months, shit is super suspicious!)
Now we are finding out that there are powerful cult people who want the world to be like it used to be, black and white. They live underground in an undercity. Could they be the ones tainting magic? Is it just the magic we drill? Is it all magic? It's not clear. Are the cubes themselves responsible for this?
The more we talk the more we try to figure out the balance of power. It sounds like the black axel must have the "missing" cube. How else can they keep the balance. How and when did they erase the knowledge of the cube? Although they are in a unique place to manipulate information, I still think this plan and this organization has been going for some time. Eldris Highwater (the keeper who was in the hurt locker and used for his magical abilities) has been trapped for 8,250 years. He's been in the same place, and the people who were "behind it all" seem to have been working on this shit for some time. (Same robes just many generations later? Unless to freaky robes give you longevity? Either way, talk about being a slave to a cause! Who the fuck signs up to have a living cloak hook and tentacle it's way into their body? I'm guessing that isn't a day one sort of commitment.) Any way, long story short it sounds like these zealots are attached to these underground people (or one and the same?). I think the black axel is just the latest name for their influence in the world and Zero definitely seems to be a part of it. Anyone who can "magically" get you everything you need ASAP is up to something (though I'm not convinced Zero is just one person or perhaps not even a person at all? Maybe someone build a dooms day program to help the end of the world? That's what I would do. If I was evil and stuff... )
So what are we up to next? Apparently we're going to try establishing a corporation named after the goddess of magic Sanctuary Inc. Though I'm not sure how we can make magic free to people without drilling? Maybe Ki' will have some answers by way of old tech or maybe we'll need to pray (literally) for a whole new way of doing things.
It also sounds like we are going into BRN territory to find out more info on this cult. (what the heck am I going to do about my alliance? Do I joint the Black Axel Cartel knowing about the corruption? I'm not a gnome but I'm still a proud guild member. We do trade all over the world, but people will know who we side with. I'm feeling a little lost right now.
Oh, but it isn't all bad news! I met the man of my dreams, and surprise he's tall, made of metal, and holds one of the most beautiful guns I've seen per date! When he holds me it feel oh so right! Who would think he'd be from the BRN? That's right, we've got a mech suit! I can't wait to give that paint job a nice wash and buff! (Between you and me, I love blue, but so do the boys who like to steal my tools! So pink just sorta grew on me, again, literally)
Gosh, it has been such a whirlwind the last few days, I must be forgetting something? Oh yeah, we made two fake cubes under the strict guidance of Xhoya. (That little genius is giving all of us a run for our money! It is so nice to see Xhoy-Xhoy coming out of her shell!) Anyway, when we put them in the old rock tumbler/ magic pump we accidentally linked them. I'm wondering if that could be a good thing? If we can find a way to separate them. Probably using the hurt locker on the real thing, we might be able to use their seeming magnetic attraction to one another to our benefit. Maybe we can physically draw the Gazelle into a trap after he envelopes one of the false cubes? I wonder if the hurt locker could contain something like him? I wonder if we could use it to suck some power out of the bastard and return it to the earth where it belongs? Of course then I get a little worried. We are assuming that he is a bad guy, not a good guy controlled by bad people. What if there is a sentient being in their like Echo with no voice of his own?
(Sometimes I still wish I would wake up in the hospital after bonking my head) Shit is so complicated, but you know what, part of me has been fed up with the way things are for quite some time. I hate that poor people get the short end of the stick. I hate that so many kids who are orphans didn't catch a lucky break like I did. Don't get me wrong, I worked my ass off for what I have, but still. Those street kids, those bums could have been me, with some minor adjustments. When Ki' talks about this world she comes from, my heart wants to believe it is possible. I mean, I know we can do better than this. Even if it isn't perfect, isn't it worth trying to make things better? So, I'm gonna pray more. I already know Puau, now I'll learn about the others and see where that takes me. I was born to build, and something tells me I can build a better world with this crazy bunch of people, or at least that it is worth a shot. After all, we just saved the fucking world!
