Or maybe you're just a damn good thief and we're all so jealous of your skill that we're trying to call it magic.

I think someone's fucking with time, because we spirits keep getting pushed around in time for some reason, forwards and backwards and sideways. And there are some other spirits apparantly, or maybe just us in our future, that take our places during blank spots. Plus didn't you notice the lich looked a lot like Nirblim, and was named Nirblim? The lich is Nirblim from another timeline, who somehow ended up in his own past, and changed history in order to stop his village from being killed in the first place. But I think Nirblim got someone's help to go through time, because he doesn't seem to understand much about changing history, and hasn't traveled through time since.

You should be fuckin jealous of me! You guidance spirits told me I'm a fuckin god! I'm the best fuckin thief in the fuckin world! I don't really give a fuck about all that time travel fuckery.

Nir:"Has anyone seen my sister?"
Cassna:"Saw her enter forest. Asked where and she said wanted to be mage like you."
She went with Torus? I hope she'll be okay. I wish she'd have told me first.

well torus was a little mad at rojo, but she seemed to like you, so she should like your sister.

What if Armi and Torus become friends? My sister might be able to make Torus become friends with Rojo. That would be good. Oh! Well, how did Carg go?
>>
No. 181011 ID: 1ac39d

he doesn't know how he has magic and doesn't want us to bring it up unless we have solid proof of something. so practice your magic sense so that you may be able to figure out what the magic could be.

Try Rojo, you know how her magic works so she should be easier.

I can clearly sense that Rojo has magic, but Carg has something else. I don't know what it is.
>>
No. 181241 ID: 1ac39d

so it's like magic but different? odd. well, maybe after it's train some you will be able to get more then that from it.

look in the direction of Magun's tower and cast your magic sense outward see if you can sense him from here. magun makes a good target because while he is far away he has a lot of power so it should be easy to sense it.

I can barely sense it, but it feels the same as Rojo. Do you thik Carg is using some sort of weird magic?
>>
No. 181252 ID: 1ac39d

maybe, but if he is he doesn't know he is. and he told us not to bug him without knowing what it was. maybe it's something all Nedynvor have? if it is then it's just something they have. maybe if we met his parents or something it would help.

We're not jealous of you and we're not trying to label you as a freak. We're only curious of your past. You need to stop assuming we're trying to pick on you.

I like the way you think. It'd be totally easier to change a kobold into a nedynvor than to figure out how to make a kobold get off the ground. Why not have both? You could have nedynvor with rocket boosters!

No. 182723 ID: c4c313

Rocket means to hurtle quickly through the air. Rocket boosters boost your flying speed, so that you rocket. Totally safe and not at all risky, I assure you. At any rate we need to tell Nirblim about your levitation idea.

And fine, I can stop complimenting you if you really want it.

This sounds like a more reliable idea. At least we know it's a town, not like the moon. Seriously, all I know about the moon is that it creates darkness.
>>
No. 183547 ID: 1ac39d

the moon is just a giant ball of rock that is very very very high up. it spins around the world. without it the waters of the world would be still and lifeless. i suggested the moon because you could see the earth from it. seeing the entire thing is astounding. also it would be very original and unique. anyone can go to a town for a date, but the moon?

No. 183559 ID: 34470e

Just a giant ball of rock? I don't think there'd be much to do there but watch the earth and talk. Then again, Xom can summon things out of thin air. Okay, we'll go to the moon. Now... when should I go?

No. 183562 ID: 1ac39d

let's see... transport is no obstacle. would say the next time the sun and the moon are in the sky at the same time, would have the earth be well illuminated.

Just a giant ball of rock?

JUST a giant ball of rock?

The moon is an incredibly huge sphere formed of a terrible collision splitting the planet in twain back when the earth was still molten and glowing. The planet and its smaller half were knocked into a dizzyingly fast spin because of it, bringing about the days and nights that last for 1 day, not for months, and thus enabling all of life to exist at all! The moon is mostly rock, cooled rock as it being smaller than the earth has cooled faster over the eons, and pock marked with craters from where space rocks crashed into the moon, shielding the earth from them. The unimaginable time spent under this barrage has covered its surface in a fine layer of dust. Moon dust, if you will, that to this day has never seen a mortal footprint indent its surface.

I would never call it a giant rock. It's the sister of sunlight. The daybringer. The tide puller. It's the moon!

That said, the moon is really cold and you can't breathe there, and the sunlight is deadly (like how it would be on a mountain taller than any mountain you've been on) so it probably wouldn't make a great picnic spot. I still say a town full of Nedynvor off in the mountains somewhere would be suitably impressive.

No. 183999 ID: 1ac39d

killing a madman because he was trying to kill a loved one would be an act of good. so, in spite of it being a sword, use it as a shield, to protect all that is dear to you.

A shield... Yes, I'll use it to protect. That is, if Carg will let me. I head on over to Carg.

Carg:"Yeah?"
Rojo:"Is it okay if I can use this sword?"
Carg:"What the fuck ever. Go ahead. I only stole it because I fuckin can."
Okay, if I'm going to be using this sword, I need to practice with it. Is there a proper way to practice?
>>
No. 184007 ID: 1ac39d

yes, the first course is to be able to do 1000 overhead slashes with it in a row, no breaks. just raise it over your head and swing it as hard as you can in front of you. this get's your arms and hands used to swinging it. trying anything else wouldn't work right because your arms aren't accustomed to it.
>>
No. 184012 ID: 34470e

Why would I need to learn anything? I was doing fine against him. He's really good at dodging.
>>
No. 184025 ID: 1ac39d

then obviously you need to train so you can punch faster, so that next time you see him you can actually hit him. best way to do that is to make it harder for you to do it. have someone tie a bunch of rocks to your claws and then just do whatever. after a few days you take the rocks off and your arms will go faster.
>>
No. 184031 ID: 34470e

>>184025
Tying rocks to my hands so I can punch faster? That seems weird, but if it'll make me fight better, I'll do it. I walk over to Carg, since Rojo's busy swinging a sword.
Arkan:"Carg, I want you to find some rocks for me and tie them on my pincers."
Carg:"And why the fuck should I do that?"
Arkan:"It'll help me fight better."

Carg crosses his wings for a second and looks at me with a weird look on his face.
Carg:"Fine... Think about that fuckin favor. You have until I get back from my fuckin hometown."
Carg and I go into the woods to search for rocks. We gather up some, and he ties them to my pincers. Then he leaves to go to bed. What should I do now?

I don't see any posts, so I'll just punch some trees. I begin. I punch slower. I thought you said punching with rocks tied to me would make me punch faster.
>>
No. 184104 ID: 68b807

>>184103
Alright.
This is how this works.
It slows you down now, but if you can strain yourself to punch as quickly as you did without the rocks reliably, then when you remove the rocks you'll actually punch faster and harder.
>>
No. 184117 ID: 34470e

Oh. Well, why didn't you say that in the first place? I continue punching the tree. These rocks are pretty heavy. Nirblilm wasn't really all that good at creating me I guess.

well from what we can tell your the first thing he's made and he doesn't seem to know that things as strong as Des exist, if he did he would of made you much stronger.

No. 184185 ID: 34470e

>>184170
Des seemed to only be a little stronger than me. And I think Nirblilm should have studied more before he created me. He made me weak. I have to train to become stronger when he should have made me the strongest thing ever. I may not be able to do my job to protect the tribe as good as I should.
