[HQ Ignorance] Re : Scene 31?: To the Castle Coast

[Loran]

[OOC]
I think we have the folowing number of scenes:
Scene 29: Saving the Essence of Judge Kraken
Scene 30: An Engineering Problem
Scene 31: To the Castle Coast

[IC]
Azhur, bearing his coat of arm of House Daymare of Loskalm and the symbol of the Great Creator on his chest, greeted Lord Tierre and his court with all the due dignity.

Trying to convince the assembly on the rightfulness of their quest, he loyally stepped near Aalmon and spoke the most honorably he could:
- “Undoubtedly the Kingdom of War is growing over the lands of Fronela like a terrifying cancer, soon all peoples of good will and all the faithful lords in the West will fear not only for their own lives, but also for the sake of their own Essences!”

Unable to refrain his combative will, he continued:
- “In fact, I fear the day it will overflow the northern mountain of Nidan, as it will spread, unstoppable on all the western countries. Even If the Mountains are an enough high and hard barrier, then the Syndic’s Ban will not last for ever
 it’s getting thinner and thinner. But even more sooner the Kingdom of War may reach the sea
 It had never shown lack of adaptability. What will give the alliance of the appetite for conquest of Kingdom of War with the ferocious cupidity of the Wolf Pirates?”

Touched by a deadly vision of dark futures, he depicted what could be the destiny of everyone, even here on the Castle Coast:
- “I can foresee the day when all surviving peoples will stand up with an iron courage to gather under the banner of the Holy Crusade, marching against this new appearance of the Devil
 because our time is the time of the HeroWars! By waiting this disastrous time, at the request of our respective leaders, we are all in search of what can be decisive assets in this coming battle that will end our Age of time. The bests of our Fellowship have already fallen, but the duty remains for us.”

With a charitable tone, he finished more slowly:
- “As a probable descendant of Zorscam, one of the Talor’s weapon bearers, my personal duty is to repair the wrongness that was commited during this now legendary time, just simply because Unity of All was always the condition for our salvation. In your sunny, savage and beautiful land, this old wrongnesss has a name, which is Wilkairtha. We have to meet him. My friend Aalmon has great hopes and fears from this encounter. I have the duty to protect Aalmon and to face the consequences of Zorscam’s deeds. We both hope that from Wilkairtha some good will happen. Any delay will make our enemies strongers, any help will push the balance in our favor.”

Loran, hopping that Azhur didn't tell to much.

Aalmon looked around him as Tierre read, judging the social standing of 
each present so he could know to whom his words must be addressed. He 
quietly rubbed at a talisman for blessing in dealing with these strange, 
yet seemingly not hostile, foreigners.

For the first time since the elf-woman had left Baros looked cheerful at 
the sight of his distant kin so far from his homeland. Stepping up to 
his brothers side to support him he seemed to almost have a skip in his 
step.

Aalmon stepped forwards with a finely measured bow "I will speak for the 
Fellowship if it please you, Lord Tierre. Each member of our fellowship 
was sent by our homeland to avert a great evil that has been forseen, 
that the demonic Lord Death on a Horse will bring forth if he is not 
stopped. Some of our fellowship have fallen on the path, the plant woman 
and the stone man have set out on their own course for the moment and we 
hope to join with them again as soon as we can. Those that are here 
thank you for your kind reception."

"The ghost of the first man to live and die set us on the course that 
now leads us to speak with one named Wilkairtha. When last men marched 
under this banner" he continued gesturing towards Azhur "there was great 
war and terrible curses were unleashed. To avert the coming evil we must 
seek peace and if not the undoing of curses at least the gaining of 
freedom from their harm. This is why we have traveled here so far from 
our homelands and we humbly beg leave to continue our quest - which is 
for the ultimate gain of all those descended from the First Man who sent 
us here."
