Memorable quotes

Shahai

XXX tells you, "I am helping Juliet to do her job." 

A band of sizzling golden fire crackles in an arc across the heavens.  

The sweltering heat of the forge spills out across the land as the rumbling voice of Phaestus booms, "Oi. You. Ashtani layabout. Find something better to do than pester guides." 

 You tell XXX, "I suppose that was for you?" 

 XXX tells you, "Indeed."

Horatio

No matter how long I play this game, yells and shouts like these just don't get old:

Womenowar yells, "HOW DO I JOIN THIS CITY? NO ONE ELSE WILL HELP ME."

Trilliana

Baceolus Jooliet sings in a mellow voice, "We drink to our youth, for days come and gone..."

Baceolus Jooliet sings in a mellow voice, "For the Age of Aggression is just about done..."

... WHYYYY on so many levels

Lol. And you guys question my motives for killing a peasant. 

Ada

No killing Ellie

Argys

 Delta, Dovakeen, Dovakiin, Dragonseyes, Dragoon,

:O

Arador

Don't forget Dragonknight. Should probably point him to help namechange.

Katzchen

A fiery portal comes falling down from above to land with a 'THUMP.'

um?

Argys

@Arador The three italicized and the one you mentioned... all Dwarves at that. :S

Hayte

Little known fact, every portal begins its life being told the lie "You are going to be a holobomb." Some of them take a bit longer to learn the truth than others.

Ruth

Ellie probably rained on Mhaldor's parade. Had to kill it.

If you never give the magic something to shoot for, it's never going to become inspired and motivated.

Sohl

After a short pun-off with Orklanishkal,

You say with an urbane accent, "I shall give my house favour to whomever can make a pun with Ork's full name."

<few minutes later>

Mariya Eruu'Yul Devi says, "A story."

Mariya Eruu'Yul Devi says, "There once was a society of dwarves who had, through ingenuity and hard work, saved the world from dastardly plans."

Mariya Eruu'Yul Devi says, "The celebration was raucous, and lasted three days before it occurred to the least inebriated of them that they should commemorate their victory."

Mariya Eruu'Yul Devi says, "They went down the line of sodden dwarves, each with worse ideas than the last on how to commit their deeds to history."

Mariya Eruu'Yul Devi says, "They reached the last dwarf, who, no one recognised, as he had wandered into the party from distant lands. He suggested they engrave the name of their band of dwarves into the rocks around them."

Mariya Eruu'Yul Devi says, "A fantastic idea, they said, but whose hands were sober enough to do it properly? The last dwarf indicated that he would gladly do so, if they would tell him what to chisel."

Mariya Eruu'Yul Devi says, "In derisive disbelief, the dwarves replied, "You don't even know what our clan is called!""

:-O

Edit: 2013/01/24 04:59:13 - Sohl housefavoured Mariya for: Succesfully punning 'Orklanishkal'. A feat of such magnificent confabulation and badinage, as to surely go down in history.

Daslin

So, after searching with Razeal for a long while, he gets THIS

Razeal gives a lump of nickel to Murad.

Murad nods as he accepts the metal.

Murad says, "Looks like I have everything I need."

3341h|81% 3471m|94% 62%e 100%w ex|cdbk- -90%  01:57:36.311- 

Razeal requests a specially forged blade from Murad. Circling slowly around him, the blacksmith 

takes a few measurements and jots down some notes before assembling his tools.

3341h|81% 3471m|94% 62%e 100%w ex|cdbk- -90%  01:57:45.107- 

Placing a lump of nickel and a clump of jet-black clay into the forge alongside a length of steel, 

Murad pumps the bellows to increase the temperature of the roiling furnace.

3341h|81% 3471m|94% 62%e 100%w ex|cdbk- -90%  01:57:50.107- 

Murad draws the heated materials from the forge, folding the metals together upon an anvil with 

heavy strikes of his hammer.

3341h|81% 3471m|94% 62%e 100%w ex|cdbk- -90%  01:57:55.106- 

Sweat flies from Murad's brow as he repeats the folding process, turning and shaping the blade with 

the skill of an expert craftsman.

3341h|81% 3471m|94% 62%e 100%w ex|cdbk- -90%  01:58:00.103- 

Murad dissolves the handful of ashes in a vat of icy water. A hiss of steam rises into the air as he 

plunges the hot steel into the vat. When it cools, he draws the blade from the water and carefully 

dries the steel with a cloth.

3341h|81% 3471m|94% 62%e 100%w ex|cdbk- -90%  01:58:05.098- 

Selecting a few materials from his workbench, Murad finishes the handle of the sword and affixes it 

with a pommel to balance the weapon. With expert precision, he grinds the blade of the sword against 

a wheel to impart a razor-sharp edge.

3341h|81% 3471m|94% 62%e 100%w ex|cdbk- -90%  01:58:10.117- 

Murad polishes the steel with a fine cloth, inspecting the blade for any imperfections. Finding none,

 he turns and reverently presents the sword to Razeal with both hands.

Murad exclaims, "I give you Blood Mountain!"

3341h|81% 3471m|94% 63%e 100%w ex|cdbk- -90%  01:58:15.121- 

Opening his mouth wide, Razeal gapes in wonder.

3341h|81% 3471m|94% 63%e 100%w ex|cdbk- -90%  01:58:18.943- 'oh NICE

You say in a deep, growling voice, "Oh NICE."

3341h|81% 3471m|94% 63%e 100%w ex|cdbk- -90%  01:58:19.316- 

Razeal says in an amphibiously resonant voice, "Damn."

3341h|81% 3471m|94% 63%e 100%w ex|cdbk- -90%  01:58:23.148- 'damn tha's a nice name.

You say in a deep, growling voice, "Damn tha's a nice name."

3341h|81% 3471m|94% 63%e 100%w ex|cdbk- -90%  01:58:32.696- laugh

You utter a deep, rumbling laugh.

3341h|81% 3471m|94% 63%e 100%w ex|cdbk- -90%  01:58:33.141- 'show 'er off!

You say in a deep, growling voice, "Show 'er off!"

3341h|81% 3471m|94% 63%e 100%w ex|cdbk- -90%  01:58:37.782- 

Razeal proudly shows off Blood Mountain:

Forged from a darkened alloy of the finest steel and nickel, this blade exhibits a sharp curve along 

its length, accentuated by a runed groove carved into the metal. The narrow tang is encased by a 

grip of emerald cotton in an intricate cross-hatch pattern. Rounding off the grip is a pyramidal 

pommel fashioned from diamond, affording perfect balance to this masterfully crafted weapon.

Wow, I don't think I've even heard of a "real" raid.  Epic.

You raze a playful Chaghut girl's magical shield with a Soulpiercer.
You viciously jab a Soulpiercer into a playful Chaghut girl.
A playful Chaghut girl skips out to the south.

Nothing can be seen here by that name.

A playful Chaghut girl skips in from the south.

You crease your brow in a frown.

A nearly invisible magical shield forms around a playful Chaghut girl.

Your health is quickly deteriorating.

A playful Chaghut girl snickers at you.

A playful Chaghut girl bends down and picks up a small stone, throwing it in your direction. The
projectile flies true, hitting you a glancing blow on the forehead.

Your health is quickly deteriorating.

You take a drink from a stygian vial.

You say to a playful Chaghut girl in Mhaldorian, "I'm onto you... you're a serpent in disguise."

Arador's eyes gleam with generosity.

Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg tilts its head curiously, then gently takes the manuscript. Reading
over each page intently, the Sileg's face takes on an expression akin to surprise.

Arador's mouth turns up as his face breaks into a smile.

Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg says, "We are fascinated by this. These strange markings are unlike
anything we have ever seen, but we understand them. We will tell you what they say."

Your health is quickly deteriorating.

Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg says, "It seems that long ago, our people were not what they are now.
Our ancestors were very different, and they came from a city far, far away. They left that place,
though we are not entirely sure why. Some dispute with the chieftain there. Over a long distance
they travelled, and soon found happiness in new lands."

Your health is quickly deteriorating.

You say in Mhaldorian, "Why are you helping them? I want to kill them."

You peer at Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg unscrupulously.

Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg pauses for a moment before continuing.

Arador says with a gutteral, trollish accent, "A little history of their kind."

Your health is quickly deteriorating.

You take a drink from a stygian vial.
The tonic heals and soothes you.

Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg says, "Something caused them to flee their new home. There is not much
detail, only that whatever it was proved too much for them to fight off. Do you think they had even
bigger jade spiders chasing after them?"

You may drink another health or mana elixir or tonic.

Your health is quickly deteriorating.

Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg drifts off, tapping the book distractedly.

Arador says with a gutteral, trollish accent, "Because it is always good to drain their funds before
you send them off to their death."

You say in Mhaldorian, "This is a very wishy washy history lesson."

Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg says, "They found these very caves, and became lost, but whatever had
been chasing them was turned back. There is not much detail here beyond that, only that of their
attempts at survival. They did not fare well, no they did not. The creatures here are not friendly,
and it seems there may have been worse kinds here at this time."

Your health is quickly deteriorating.

Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg says, "This manuscript mentions a great glowing pillar. We know the
one it speaks of. It also mentions, in the last pages, odd changes in the people. Their eyes and
skin began to change colour, and they noticed that soon, they did not even bleed the same way."

Arador says with a gutteral, trollish accent, "True."

Your health is quickly deteriorating.

You say in Mhaldorian, "Somewhere, and some time, something happened, and this is where we came from."

Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg paces the room, contemplating the information.

Your health is quickly deteriorating.

You take a drink from a stygian vial.
The tonic heals and soothes you.

Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg says, "We are greatly surprised. We will tell the chieftain of this,
and we will make sure our people know the truth. We would have preferred this was not our past, but
that is the way of things. We thank you for all you have done."

Arador says with a gutteral, trollish accent, "And back then things were different."

You may drink another health or mana elixir or tonic.

Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg clutches the manuscript tightly.

You nod your head emphatically.

Your health is quickly deteriorating.

Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg says, "A small gift in thanks. It is all we can do."

Arador shrugs helplessly.

Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg takes some moss-covered coins and passes them to Arador, before
returning to the contents of the manuscript.

Arador says with a gutteral, trollish accent, "Thank you."

Arador viciously jabs an ornate steel rapier into Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg.
Arador has scored an OBLITERATING CRITICAL hit!
Arador viciously jabs an ornate steel rapier into Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg.

Your health is quickly deteriorating.

Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg points a withered finger at Arador while chanting.
Shards of rock materialise befofre Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg diving towards Arador at breakneck
speed and cutting him in numerous places.

Lightning-quick, Arador jabs Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg with an ornate steel rapier.
Arador has scored a CRITICAL hit!
Arador viciously jabs an ornate steel rapier into Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg.

Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg mumbles under its breath as a grey cloud envelops Arador, stealing
away his breath.

Lightning-quick, Arador jabs Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg with an ornate steel rapier.
Arador has scored an ANNIHILATINGLY POWERFUL CRITICAL hit!
Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg drops to the ground in a withered heap, its cane clattering to the
floor beside its body.
The final blow proves too much for Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg, who expires pitifully.
Girda, Ritualist of the Sileg has been slain by Arador.
A small pile of sovereigns spills from the corpse.

Now targeting sileg!
Nothing can be seen here by that name.

Your health is quickly deteriorating.

Arador stretches languidly.

... I wanted to kill it FFS.

You point an elemental staff at a salamandrin mage, and cause a bolt of lightning to cascade out and roar screaming into her.
A salamandrin mage says, "You wish to test my magic?"

You say, "I'll show you my magic!"

A salamandrin mage scolds you angrily.

Ada

Before the throne of Death.
Twinkling and gleaming, a large pile of golden sovereigns rests here. A solid, round kola nut lies here. A skullcap flower lies here. Someone has left a ginger root here. There are 2 goldenseal roots in 2 groups here. A bloodroot leaf lies here. Some irid moss has been left here. There are 2 pieces of kelp in a group here. A forked ginseng root has been dropped here. A grain of crystalline dolomite rests on the ground here. A dark grey flake of plumbum sparkles upon the floor. A dull grey chip of magnesium rests on the ground. A small flake of gleaming aurum rests upon the ground. A pellet of arsenic sits on the floor. There are 3 yellow inks in a group here. A small green ink lies discarded here. A small purple ink lies discarded here.
You see a single exit leading out.

... somebody died right in there

I've been alive in Maya's Halls once. Got like 200 gold from the ground, some herbs then went OUT like inferno/nirvana.
