EVENT: Current State of Affairs

[aloof_savant]

[ Thankfully, both the doors leading into the war room managed to get through the earthquake undamaged and are now shut tight. Behind the doors is a room that's mostly still in shambles, but it's now occupied by a big table borrowed from the tavern next door, as well as enough chairs for everyone in the room to be seated on, if they wish. ]


((OOC: If your name is in the tags, then Caesar has invited you to this meeting. Just note that all information that's shared in these threads can be heard by everyone in the room, and threadjacking is totally allowed, too! ))

Mm, right. I forget about the Star Dragon Sword most of the time.

So that means that if it is merely an abundance of True Runes, where does the tipping point lie? Less than five, we're fine, but more than five and some react?

[flamesandfeathers]

I think almost everyone wanted to forget it about it. The thing was arrogant. Funny. But arrogant.

[Leans back in his chair, looking at the ceiling in thought]

My guess is six. Maybe seven.

[Turns his head slightly towards Geddoe] Remember when I came to your quarters to ask you some questions? I remember you mentioning there being a seventh True Rune here. It wasn't long after that I started getting a lot of visions and my Rune started acting up not much later.

[trueltning_fury]

Of course. But you asked me things I asked myself when I first had my Rune. I saw nothing unusual about it - visions are rather typical.

[esteems]

But yours is fine, is it not?

[trueltning_fury]

For now. [small nod] But I've also borne it for longer than anyone at this table has been alive.

[ladyofstars]

Save for myself.

[trueltning_fury]

[there goes that eyebrow again]

I've heard it's rude to speculate on the age of a lady.

[there's something dry and deadpan about it, he might actually be teasing]

[ladyofstars]

[A wry smile]

How kind of you.

[Finishes writing on her parchment]

I am an associate of the Seeress Leknaat.

[aloof_savant]

Get a room, you two.

[flamesandfeathers]

Caesar! Really?

[aloof_savant]

[ Seeing their little playful exchange made him cringe. THEY'RE SO OLD. But, in the spirit of not derailing... ]

My bad, continue.

[trueltning_fury]

[finds the time after speaking to give Caesar a dirty look]

[latkje]

I think it's cute. The love that can't speak more than three words in a sentence. [ He's a romantic! ]

[esteems]

If anyone needs to be locked in a room, it's you two. [ Scoffs at both Caesar and Nash for being so immature at a time like this, then focuses her attention back to Zerase and Geddoe. ]

[trueltning_fury]

[oh well shit son. Geddoe sits up at that, failing to completely hide his interest before he settles down.]

Then I suppose it's only fair that I offer myself for questions if you have any, regarding the pale and distant past.

[ladyofstars]

You would be more knowledgable about the events on this continent than I.

What are your thoughts?

[trueltning_fury]

On the situation? I don't have many, yet. I consented to the meeting because I would like information as much as the next Runebearer.

The only thing anyone can say for certain about True Runes is that they are unpredictable.
