53rd street station. Williams and Bennett will have my head if I'm not at

[Chat] Viniko: ahh!  Who is this freak following me!?

A gibbering old fool says insanely, 'I'm so curious.'

Arturo Ni'Eyrinn says gently, 'Oh my oh my.'

fool.

did.'

breath.

'Not that I have seen,' a gibbering old fool says, gibbering a little, to a
silent woodsman.

[Chat] Ren: Female, then?

kindly to a silent woodsman.

of contagion is spreading in England!

'He's gone delerious,' a gibbering old fool says, looking crazed.

'Whom, pray tell?' Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh says patiently to a gibbering old
fool.

[Chat] Viniko: what are doctors?

'Do you still feel ... yourself?' a silent woodsman says to Arturo Ni'Eyrinn.

SkullKrusher.'

Doctor Anderson peers around the room intently.

doubt.'

Arturo Ni'Eyrinn says kindly to a silent woodsman.

'Oui, I experienced that as well, methinks,' Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh says
fluently.

A silent woodsman nods solemnly.

The Notorious SkullKrusher raises an eyebrow inquiringly.

A gibbering old fool says insanely, 'Morrigan is calling all of you.'

Doctor Anderson says to The Notorious SkullKrusher, 'Some sort of hallucinogen,
no doubt.'

Arturo Ni'Eyrinn says, kindness evident, 'And there was a vague trembling
sensation.'

[Chat] Viniko: does anyone know where is the teleporter to Dune?

A silent woodsman says, 'Most curious.'

Raz fills a leather waterskin from the trough of an old pump.

Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh says courteously, 'Hallu-what?'

'Perhaps drinking from the pump takes you closer to morrigan,' a gibbering old
fool says, gibbering a little.

[Chat] Doctor Anderson: dope fiends, every one of you!

[Chat] Viniko: I was just there yesterday, but I seem to forgot...

says fluently to Doctor Anderson.

this around, and we must find Tancred to bring these two back together.'

'What old man, dude?' a gibbering old fool says, looking crazed, to Village
Idiot Aaaaarrgh.

A silent woodsman says, 'He's begun speaking in some strange vernacular.'

Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh says, in a voice smooth and courtly, to Arturo
Ni'Eyrinn, 'I am right here?'

[Chat] Lord Magius: where is my lance and shield, my spurs and armor, I must
have them for the tourney

[Chat]: Ren bows before Pope Quimby.

[Chat] Snowwhite: You might go if you enter my pocket :)

[Chat] Viniko: ok, if I can't see the teleporter to go to Dune, maybe someone
can help lead me to Terra?

Arturo Ni'Eyrinn says kindly, 'Alas then we must find Aaaaarrgh.'

A silent woodsman says to a gibbering old fool, 'Look at yourself ... what do
you see?'


Doctor Anderson says to Arturo Ni'Eyrinn, 'Nonsense, it must be some sort of
drug. We should call in the police to beat some sense into these fools.'

[Chat] Uncle Chaykin: Somebody help me get to the office, please!! It's at 2096
Wall Street!!

'Oui, I should agree with that,' Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh says, in a voice
smooth and courtly.

[Chat] Tancred: muf?

courtly.

mind you are totally insane

[Chat] Viniko: there's another place called Terra..

Arturo Ni'Eyrinn says, kindness evident, to Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh, 'See
anything unfamiliar.'

Doctor Anderson says to Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh, 'A grunting barbarian's body,
with a smooth tongue inside?'

'I cannot say that I do,' Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh says in a courtly fashion.

Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh says, looking annoyed, to Doctor Anderson, 'No need to
get unkind, monseigneur.'

Arturo Ni'Eyrinn says kindly, 'Alas he cannot see as we can, that he has been
displaced.'

A gibbering old fool makes little wave motions with his hands.

Arturo Ni'Eyrinn comforts Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh.

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Oui, Monseigneur Ren, thou art welcome to join
our attempt at finding the witches behind this scheme.

[Chat] Snowwhite: cause they are idiots? ;)

'I wanna kill a witch!' The Notorious SkullKrusher says to Village Idiot
Aaaaarrgh.

Arturo Ni'Eyrinn says gently to Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh, 'Worry not my friend
we shall find a way to set things to right.'

'As do I,' Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh says fluently.

A gibbering old fool says, gibbering a little, to a silent woodsman, 'Whats
with you dude?'

A gibbering old fool says, gibbering a little, to a silent woodsman, 'Mellow
out.'

[Chat] Snowwhite: Are you referring to his special female friends? :P ;)

world of evil

'Uh, nothing, err nothing at all,' a silent woodsman says to a gibbering old
fool.

[Chat] Uncle Chaykin: Please, somebody, it's 2096 Wall Street!! I'm already
late!!! *looks about to cry*

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: 'Twould appear we are i Nottingham.

[Chat]: Mistress Darla sulks because Uncle Chaykin has hurt her feelings.

A silent woodsman whispers quietly to Doctor Anderson.
It sounded like 'Do you suppose we should humor them?' to you.

[Chat] Lord Magius: aha, a truly noble endeavour awaits!

[Chat] Viniko: he also told me once about a bodyguard...

[Chat] Ren: We're on our way!

to Lady Judith.

says, somewhat dazed, to a silent woodsman.

sane person here.'

barbarian in his place!

Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh will do back.

down.

him!

Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh says, looking annoyed, to The Notorious SkullKrusher,
'Behave!'

Lord Magius says to Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh, 'Now Sir, how shall we conquer
this plague that has overtaken our great realm.'

[Chat] Tusk: im a barbarian

A silent woodsman says, 'Whatever has fouled this pump is subverting the
natural order of things.'

[Chat] Lady Judith: who has absconded with my brother!?

The Notorious SkullKrusher says to Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh, 'Maybe it was me
who did this!'

'Not horrible m'lady, he is still Tancred, and I shall find the other,' Arturo

[Chat] Uncle Chaykin: SHHHH! I know nothing about my wife's death! I had
nothing to do with it, you hear?

The Notorious SkullKrusher sits down and rests.

The Notorious SkullKrusher relaxes and begins breathing regularly and slowly.

[Chat] Mistress Darla: bullet to the head. I was too angry to drink.

Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh says, looking annoyed, 'Slink back to thy cesspool,
demon.'

'Your soul dear brother has taken residence in his body as his has in yours, I
thought if you were brought together that perhaps it may reverse the change,'
Arturo Ni'Eyrinn says, kindness evident, to Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh.

Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh peers at himself myopically.

A greater demon says to Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh, 'This world is now my home
mortal.'

'Pardon?' Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh says, looking a little lost.

'What happen?' a silver-haired Knight Templar says, unsure of the topic.

A greater demon says to Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh, 'My master shall forever
rule.'

[Chat] Snowwhite: so you refrained from drinking all that sweet blood?!
Voluntarily?! And you call yourself a vampire?!

Doctor Anderson says, redfaced with anger, 'I must consult my books to
understand how this all was possible.'

'This little wierd little,' a silver-haired Knight Templar says, clueless as
usual.

'My head hurts,' Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh says, perplexed.

Arturo Ni'Eyrinn departs west on a mission of mercy.
Having no idea what's ahead of him there, a silver-haired Knight Templar
strides off west.
Content to wait until next time, Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh leaves west.


[Chat] Doctor Anderson: I must retire to my study and try to determine how this
all could have come to pass...

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: I wish thee best of luck, Monseigneur Anderson.

A silent woodsman says to a gibbering old fool, 'Um, dude, perhaps you can help
me out.'

A silent woodsman says to a gibbering old fool, 'I was thinking that, uh, if we
figure out what is up with this pump .... we could make more, and you would
always have some of this, uh, groovy water for yourself.'

A silent woodsman says, 'I thought you would like that.'

A silent woodsman says to a gibbering old fool, 'Let us go off and investigate,
then.'

A gibbering old fool says, somewhat dazed, to a silent woodsman, 'Of course, we
could just bottle this stuff.'

'But you never know when you'll run out,' a silent woodsman says to a gibbering
old fool.

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: I still say, we slay the sorcerer and thus undo
his foul deed.

A gibbering old fool fills a leather waterskin from the trough of an old pump.

A gibbering old fool hugs a leather waterskin.

A silent woodsman empties a canteen.

[Chat] Duckon: how does this thing work?? cause ... i dun really wanna die if i
can avoid it

A gibbering old fool says, seeing stars, to a silent woodsman, 'Yeah bring some
for you too dude.'

[Chat] Malicious: which sorcerer?

'Of course,' a silent woodsman says.

A silent woodsman leaves west.
Listing slighting to one side, a gibbering old fool stumbles off west.

The Town Square
This is the gathering place for the folk of Nottingham. A tall gallows has
been erected here. Executions are held and well attended for common thieves,
poachers and special festivities are held when a suspected member of the
outlaw band is captured. Watling Road continues east to the Castle and west
toward the gates. Gilbert Lane runs in a north-south direction here crossing
the square.

The tall wooden gates stand sentry at the entrance to Nottingham. Norman
guards are posted here around the clock, so there has been little need to
close the gates of late. Watling Road continues east into town and west to
the King's Road.

[Chat] Arturo: I am searching for a druid, a specalist in herblore preferably.

[Chat] Malicious: I think he drank something

[Chat] Fraegis: He is french, they drink -anything-

[Chat]: Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh peers at Fraegis, looking him up and down.

You give a vial of bubbly water, with a slightly ping tinge to it to Arturo
Ni'Eyrinn.

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Get thee back in thy straitjacket, man.

[Chat] The Notorious SkullKrusher: i switched the minds of tancred and
aaaaarrgh forever unless i have my virgin sacrifice!

[Chat] Xena: virgin sacrifice?  well thats not me

[Chat] Tancred: what that?

[Chat] Malicious: does anyone know how to stop a spell once you have started
it?

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: My sword seems heavier than usual. Age must be
getting to me at last.

[Chat] Mistress Darla: I could make you live forever Aaaarrgh




[Chat] Malicious: and I can't remember how to stop a spell

[Chat] Frodo: I wanna be da village 'dit

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: thou art already.

[Chat] Mistress Darla: wherrrre is Chaykin?

[Chat]: Mistress Darla mopes around, depressed.

[Chat] Mistress Darla: Chaykin has gone so insane, he has left me.

[Chat] Lady Kyla: Hi Legend

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Bonjour, Kyla.

[Chat]: Tancred knocks Lady Kyla over and flops all over her.

[Chat]: Lady Kyla pouts at Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh.

[Chat] Tancred: muf?

[Chat]: Lady Kyla bursts into tears.

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Mademoiselle?

[Chat]: Mistress Darla comforts Lady Kyla.

[Chat] Lady Kyla: BLEH, whoever invaded my Aaaaarrghie.....I WANT HIM
BACK!!!!!!!!!!
[Chat] Mistress Darla: I know what it's like hon.


[Chat]: Tancred bonks Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh on the head!

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Ow.

[Chat] Faldorn: We are working on a cure, Kyla

[Chat] Lady Kyla: wow, 2 days married and he goes insane...what does that say
about me??

[Chat]: Lady Kyla sniffs sadly.

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: If only I could recall what I did with my
herbs, I was certain I had them on my person...

[Chat] Arturo: Kyla it is not your fault he has been stricken by some strange
disease.

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Oui, indeed he has.

[Chat]: Lady Kyla nods her agreement with Arturo.

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: I am half tempted to strip him of his attire on
the spot as well.

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: The audacity of showing up posing as one of the
brethren.

[Chat] Tancred: muf?

[Chat] Frodo: muff?

[Chat] Faldorn: This foul affliction is a subversion of the natural order. 
Tuatha de Mannan is pouring all of its resources into solving this problem.

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Except their master who's roaring drunk on the
lab floor.

[Chat]: Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh raises his eyebrow at Lady Kyla.

[Chat]: Tancred gives Lady Kyla a huge bearhug - your ribs ache in sympathy.

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: 'Tis a strange day, this, and I recoil to say
it, but I fear 'twill take a sorcerer to defeat a sorcerer's evil.

[Chat] Mistress Darla: What makes you think it is sorcery? I thought it a toxin
in the water.

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Perchance so. 'Twould appear that no herbal
remedy aids us.

[Chat] Mistress Darla: have you tried just going on a rampage? That cures most
of my problems.

[Chat] Malicious: I told you I didn't know how to stop a spell

[Chat] Mistress Darla: It cannot be a spell, for I am unaffected, and I have no
more magical protection than ordinary mortals

[Chat] Malicious: mortal is the key though

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Let us rule out sorcery, then.

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Methinks Monseigneur Faldorn is currently
trying to, uh, sober up Monseigneur Cerberus for his opinion.

[Chat] Tancred: plaf, just smash them bad man do things

[Info]: Thanks to Aaaaarrgh, Tancred has a new pair of cement shoes.

[Info] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Gather thy wits about thee, man!

[Info] Tancred: ow

[Info] Malicious: will beating yourself up really help?

[Info]: Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh goes ACK TTTTHHHHHPPPPPPTTTTTT!

proven to be a fearless leader as well ... I'm sorry it has come to this

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Mon dieu.

[Chat] Faldorn: but I cannot stand idly by while this ... affliction ...
destroys you.

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Thus spake a loyal servant.

[Chat] Cerberus: dude, you're trippin

[Chat] Faldorn: Perhaps in death, we shall discover some insight into this
horrible affliction.

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Lord willing.

[Chat] Faldorn: Farewell, my mentor.

[Chat] Cerberus: just drink some more of this grooooovy pink stuff

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Pax tecum, Cerberus.

[Chat] Cerberus: hey! stop pushing me

[Chat] Mistress Darla: death solves nothing. It is only a foolish waste
of blood.

[Chat] Cerberus: dude!!!

[Info]: Cerberus is dead--he was sacrificed upon the altar to the elder gods.

[Info]: Faldorn holds his head down and mourns the dead.

[Chat] Pope Quimby: peer cerberus

[Chat] Renstav: Intresting last words.

[Info]: Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh crosses his fingers for luck.

[Chat] MacDougal: Whash gain oon?

[Chat]: Cerberus blinks.

[Chat]: Faldorn peers at Cerberus, looking him up and down.

[Chat]: Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh peers at Cerberus, looking him up and down.

[Chat]: Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh fidgets impatiently.

[Chat] Cerberus: I...

[Chat] Cerberus: I saw Morrigan

[Chat] Faldorn: what did she say?

[Chat]: Cerberus peers at Faldorn, looking him up and down.

[Chat] Cerberus: well I don't think I'll repeat it for all to hear

[Chat]: Faldorn cheers for Cerberus - huzzah!

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Methinks I have some business in the knowing.

[Chat] Cerberus: other than she wasn't done with me, and needed me to continue
service

[Chat]: Cerberus throws his head back and cackles with insane glee!

[Chat]: Faldorn gives Cerberus a huge bearhug - your ribs ache in sympathy.

[Chat] Cerberus: get off me you sod

[Chat] Faldorn: it is good to have you back, my friend
[Chat]: Cerberus whaps Faldorn across the back of the head - your ears ring in
sympathy.

[Chat] Arturo: Take care folks I must depart, Take care of our fallen friends.

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Pax tecum, Arturo.

[Chat] Faldorn: the Tuathans shall do what we can, Arturo.

[Chat] Cerberus: what in the name of Gaia has been happening here?

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: I should make that inquiry as well.

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: if in another name.

[Chat]: Cerberus peers at Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh, looking him up and down.

[Chat]: Cerberus throws his head back and cackles with insane glee!

[Chat]: Tancred grumbles.

[Chat] Mistress Darla: have another sip of the pink, Cerbie

[Chat]: An aura of heavenly light appears above Mistress Darla's head.

[Chat]: Faldorn whaps Mistress Darla across the back of the head - your ears
ring in sympathy.

[Chat] Cerberus: gads, no

[Chat]: Manitu raises an eyebrow inquiringly.

[Chat] Cerberus: Morrigan specifically told me to stay away from that stuff

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Wise advice, t'would appear.

[Chat] Cerberus: of course

[Chat]: Arturo nonchalantly flips a vial of bubbly water, with a slightly pink
tinge to it.

[Chat]: Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh worships a grand marble altar.

[Chat] Mistress Darla: it'll do you good. Everyone seems better off, except for
my darling pet who got all boring

[Chat]: Faldorn mourns Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh's impending death!

[Chat] Gwyn: Wow, mister Aaaaarrgh can talk !

[Chat] Malicious: he's not really himself today

[Chat] Mistress Darla: in a way

[Chat]: Faldorn nods his agreement with Malicious.

[Chat] Mistress Darla: French doesn't really count as speech though

[Chat] Malicious: I think it's fine speech.

[Chat] MacDougal: Tancred?

[Chat] MacDougal: Joosht sheein gin wee Aaargh reshpondit.  Och weel!

[Chat] Cerberus: this is quite unnatural Faldorn. Tuatha De Mannan must
investigate.

[Chat]: Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh nods solemnly.

[Chat] MacDougal: whosh tuatha?

[Chat] Faldorn: Indeed ... foul magiks are to blame, to be sure.

[Chat]: Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh nods solemnly.

[Chat]: Manitu looks up into the sky and ponders.

[Chat] Cerberus: but from whom?

[Chat] Tancred: plaf, them wizmen all too clever

[Chat]: Faldorn nods his agreement with Tancred.


[Chat] MacDougal: Loong ash I feel nae urge tae shtop dreenkin coffeee, I'm
fine

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Too clever for their own good too, I'll wager.

[Chat] Tancred: muf?

[Chat] Cerberus: Morrigan offered no insight into this problem. She insisted
that I look into it.

[Chat] Faldorn: I have received similar direction from Flidais ... Tuatha de
Manna shall find a way to restore the balance of nature.

[Chat] Mistress Darla: nature shmature

[Chat]: Cerberus peers at Mistress Darla, looking her up and down.

[Chat] Manitu: Manitou be nature..

[Chat] Faldorn: vampire schmampire

[Chat] Mistress Darla: c'mere Faldorn. I have a present for you.

[Chat]: Manitu looks up into the sky and ponders.

[Chat] Mistress Darla: it will make you feeel better

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: My offer of cooperation stands, Monseigneur
Faldorn. Unlikely allies we be, but these are troubled times.

[Chat] Tancred: some can help with?

[Chat] Faldorn: Indeed, christian, we make an odd alliance.  But as you say,
these are desperate times indeed.

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: Truce, then.

[Chat]: Faldorn shakes Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh's hand.

[Chat] Mistress Darla: *throws a rock at Faldorn then looks accusingly at

[Chat]: Viniko comforts Mistress Darla.

[Chat] Mistress Darla: as far as I'm concerned, you can all just stay this way.
You're just happy meals on legs anyway

[Chat] Faldorn: We have christians and pagans working together, I don't think a
few undead helping out would be too odd.

[Chat] Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh: I do, but I will refrain from commenting

[Chat] Mistress Darla: shhh Faldorn. If you will not assist, I will have to
heal him my way

[Chat] Uncle Chaykin: Very good Miss Johnson, that will be all.

[Chat] Faldorn: The more you indulge his psychosis, the farther he slips away
from you.

[Chat] Uncle Chaykin: Has anyone seen Mr. Zamanecki from the food chain? I had

[Chat] Mistress Darla: somebody call me?

A minx with an innocent smile ponders a fuzzy baby bat named Benoni's
existence.

A silent woodsman says to Uncle Chaykin, 'This is a business deal ... you're
dealing with foreigners, you have to indulge their bizarre relgious beliefs to
close the deal.'

Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh nods his agreement with a silent woodsman.

'I see what you mean,' Uncle Chaykin says solemnly to a silent woodsman. 'The
Kaufmann account was like that.'

A silent woodsman sits down in the center of the druid's circle of oak trees.

A gibbering old fool says insanely to Doctor Anderson, 'How is your faith,
doctor?'

A silver-haired Knight Templar says, unsure of the topic, 'What do?'

A silent woodsman nods his agreement with Uncle Chaykin.

Doctor Anderson says, looking a little lost, 'Oh, it's you again...I was taking
a walk in the woods, to clear my head.'

'Benoni says there is a strange pink thing in your blood,' a minx with an
innocent smile says slyly to Uncle Chaykin. 'He can drink it out.'

The high shaman of Kici Manitou stands up.

The high shaman of Kici Manitou withdraws inward and begins chanting under his
breath.

Uncle Chaykin whispers quietly to a minx with an innocent smile.
It sounded like 'Miss Johnson, I'd like to see you in my office after hours.'
to you.

A minx with an innocent smile pulls her bloody carving knife out of her belly
with a wet, slurping sound and raises it high in the air.

'And that was huuuuuge, wasn't it?' a silent woodsman says to Uncle Chaykin.
'You were the talk of Wall Street, weren't you?'

The high shaman of Kici Manitou sits down in the center of the druid's circle
of oak trees.

'Oh well, if it works,' Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh says, perplexed.

'The boys down at Zemmetti Peterson were beating their fists over that one, I'm
sure,' Uncle Chaykin says soberly to a silent woodsman.

'Silence,' the high shaman of Kici Manitou says.

A minx with an innocent smile grabs Uncle Chaykin's wrist, and pricks his
finger with her knife.

Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh crosses himself.

A minx with an innocent smile licks Uncle Chaykin.

Uncle Chaykin winces.

A gibbering old fool gulps nervously.

The high shaman of Kici Manitou stands up.

'What...what are you...' Uncle Chaykin says seriously to a minx with an
innocent smile.

A silent woodsman says to Uncle Chaykin, 'They were eating their hearts out, I
assure you.'

The high shaman of Kici Manitou sits down and rests in the center of the

you,' a minx with an innocent smile says sweetly to Uncle Chaykin. 'If you
accepted your fiendishness, then Imy-ut could protect you.'

'You have failed to cure them yet,' DarkWind says, in a soft tone.

DarkWind says in a tranquil voice, 'If you had the power it should be done by
now.'

'Yeah, you guys still haven't fixed the pink water,' Uncle Chaykin says firmly.


The high shaman of Kici Manitou says, 'Use me as a portal to transfer these two
back to their original bodies.'

'Him try hard and good though,' a big dumb ox of a man grunts, unsure of the
topic.

The high shaman of Kici Manitou withdraws inward and begins chanting under his
breath.

A naggingly familiar figure wipes his face clear of any expression.

The high shaman of Kici Manitou raises all their hands in the air.

A minx with an innocent smile slips into the shadows where the sunlight cannot
reach her.

Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh's knees seem to be incapable of supporting his massive
weight.

DarkWind says, in a soft tone, 'Goodbye, I hope this man andhis God can cure
this.. illness.'

Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh hits the grass with a thud.

The high shaman of Kici Manitou yells, 'Nature shall set you free, one by one,
take heed and change these back to the way you intended them to be!'

A big dumb ox of a man tries to go support his friend but is held at bay by the
powers surronding him.

A silver-haired Knight Templar faints.

'My knees?' Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh says, looking a little lost.

A naggingly familiar figure tries to support Aaaaarrgh, but is too small.

The earth begins to shake and shudder.

Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh faints.

The high shaman of Kici Manitou closes his eyes.

A naggingly familiar figure peers at Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh, looking him up
and down.

A gibbering old fool peers at a silver-haired Knight Templar, looking him up
and down.


'What happen?' Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh says, with the tone of the
long-suffering.

A silver-haired Knight Templar says, embarrassed, 'Pardon.'
A big dumb ox of a man raises his eyebrow at Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh.

A naggingly familiar figure peers at a silver-haired Knight Templar, looking
him up and down.

Uncle Chaykin cheers wildly!

A minx with an innocent smile goes ACK TTTTHHHHHPPPPPPTTTTTT!

'Finally!' Uncle Chaykin says, looking self-assured. 'They're baaaaack.'

A minx with an innocent smile stomps around.

A big dumb ox of a man tugs on Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh's sleeve imploringly.

'Muf?' Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh says patiently to a big dumb ox of a man.

'You old Aaaaarrgh,' a big dumb ox of a man says slowly to Village Idiot
Aaaaarrgh.

The high shaman of Kici Manitou kneels down on the ground.

A silver-haired Knight Templar stands up.
A silent woodsman wakes and stands up.

The high shaman of Kici Manitou grabs at his chest.

'You were supposed to make them BOTH Aaaaargh,' a minx with an innocent smile
says sweetly.

A big dumb ox of a man knocks Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh over and flops all over
him.

The high shaman of Kici Manitou coughs loudly.

A big dumb ox of a man cheers wildly!

'Mmf?' Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh says patiently to a big dumb ox of a man.
'Aaaaarrgh Aaaaarrgh.'

A gibbering old fool comforts the high shaman of Kici Manitou.

A silver-haired Knight Templar wobbles over behind the nearest tree. You hear,
uh, stomachy sounds from there.

The high shaman of Kici Manitou screams loudly!

A naggingly familiar figure peers at the high shaman of Kici Manitou, looking
him up and down.

The high shaman of Kici Manitou sits down on the ground.

The high shaman of Kici Manitou faints.

The shaman's chest almost bursts with a giant emission of power, aimed up into
the heavens!

'Me so happy now have friend back way should be,' a big dumb ox of a man says,
clueless as usual, to Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh.

A naggingly familiar figure comforts the high shaman of Kici Manitou.

The high shaman of Kici Manitou begins to twitch nervously.

A big dumb ox of a man cheers for the high shaman of Kici Manitou - huzzah!

Uncle Chaykin says confidently to Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh, 'Welcome back big
guy!'

'Christian?' a silent woodsman says to a silver-haired Knight Templar.

The high shaman of Kici Manitou gasps in astonishment.

A silver-haired Knight Templar wipes his mouth.

A gibbering old fool withdraws inward and begins chanting under his breath.
Manitu looks better.

'Oui, christian indeed,' a silver-haired Knight Templar says fluently.

'You look thirsty,' a minx with an innocent smile says sweetly to a
silver-haired Knight Templar. 'You should have another sip from the well.'

'Good to have you back, I think,' a silent woodsman says to a silver-haired
Knight Templar.

'Drink,' a gibbering old fool says, looking hopeful, to the high shaman of Kici
Manitou.

''Tis good to be back, at least,' a silver-haired Knight Templar says, barely
audible.

[Chat] Uncle Chaykin: Wheeee! Looks like all is good again! Except...did they
fix the water?

[Chat] Uncle Chaykin: Maybe we should call roto-rooter to fix it!

[Chat] Tancred: I strongly recommend that no one drink anything pink.


The high shaman of Kici Manitou stands up.

The high shaman of Kici Manitou eats a portion of scraggly roots.

[Chat] Mistress Darla: *halo* yes, the water is safe to drink. So everybody but
Chaykin should drink from it

Village Idiot Aaaaarrgh says, with the tone of the long-suffering, 'Think is
muhkahe.'

[Chat] Uncle Chaykin: Unless it's lemonade!

[Chat] Slytherin: damn looks like I will have to do it again...

[Chat]: Slytherin sighs loudly.

A silver-haired Knight Templar says wearily, 'I think I will need to go pray...
and rest...'

The high shaman of Kici Manitou says, 'I need.. rest.'

The high shaman of Kici Manitou faints.

A silent woodsman nods his agreement with the high shaman of Kici Manitou.

'Me very worry for loss friend for ever,' a big dumb ox of a man grunts slowly.

A silent woodsman comforts the high shaman of Kici Manitou.

Doctor Anderson blinks.

'I shall seek through our library as well, monseigneur, and perhaps find
something of use there,' a silver-haired Knight Templar says, barely audible,
to a silent woodsman.

Doctor Anderson says, looking confused, 'I know not what I have seen this day,
but I do advise rest.'

A minx with an innocent smile mutters sweetly, 'At least the anti-paladins
should still be acting like knights.'

Uncle Chaykin giggles.

'Woohoo!' Uncle Chaykin says, looking self-assured.

Uncle Chaykin says firmly to Doctor Anderson, 'Well I'm not gonna rest, I feel
like a million bucks!'

'We'll take you to rest,' a gibbering old fool says, voice hopeful, to the high
shaman of Kici Manitou.
