Katerina says, "Bye, sweetie."
You say, "Don't know.  Bye!"
Katerina kisses you goodnight.
Huh?  (Type "help" for help.)
Katerina has disconnected.
Marna's den(#2334RLA)
This is a cozy little den Marna uses to hide out in... there is a large pile
 of pillows over in one corner, and all sorts of nooks to hide things in...
Contents:
Marna
Erych blinks!
Lynn_Dragon pages:  A light, cool breeze blows up, with a scent like that of a
 bamboo forest after a light summer rain.  The wind whispers a message from
 Lynn_Dragon in your ear..."I have to switch labs right now, about 20-25
 minutes...someone log the birth for me?"
Rudri has arrived.
I don't know which one you mean!
You see nothing special.
Marna is a five and a half foot tall mink with dull black fur all over her
 body.  Her green eyes seem to be sunken into their sockets, and also appear
 to be dull.  Her movements are slow and seem to be made with great effort.
 She looks at you and attempts a faint smile.  She's wearing an oversized
 T-shirt that hangs to her knees, but does nothing to conceal the enormous
 bulge at her abdomen.  Her limbs appear bony, as if the muscles were being
 slowly eaten away.
Marna says, "tell everyone to go to the donut shoppe and type tofu..."
Erych looks in horror at Marna..
Marna says, "hatch blackwolf..."
Erych doesn't think the donut shoppe is open anymore..
You page, "Go to the donut shoppe, type 'tofu'" to Hatch and Blackwolf.
Erych tells them. We will see.
Lynn_Dragon has arrived.
Due to an old curse cast on Lynn Onyx's family in ancient China, she is a
 were-panda.  However, right now she is in the form of a huge furry
 Chinese-style dragon; her long, coiled serpent-body is furred in
 black-and-white panda markings.  Her black eyes peer at you emotionlessly,
 and her long snake-like tongue flicks out of her mouth, tasting the air.

 me just in case, is that okay?" to you.
Lynn_Dragon hisses, "Hi everyone...I gotta run...ssswitching labsss.  Good
 luck, Marna!"
Hatch has arrived.
Lynn_Dragon has disconnected.
You page, "I..don't know if magic is good right now." to Blackwolf.
Marna winces.
Blackwolf pages:  Blackwolf pages, "Aye...Then I shall not bring him." to you.
Hatch finally makes it.
Rudri lies Marna down on her pillows.
Erych kneels beside Marna, and takes her hand..
Blackwolf has arrived.
Marna looks at Erych.
Marna says, "thank you."
Blackwolf looks about quickly..."Greetings all."
Marna says, "thank you all."
Hatch wonders what he should do.
Rudri says softly, "please just stay out of the way."
Rudri says softly, "Milo's soul has arrived..."
Blackwolf takes a breath in awe.
Erych strokes Marna's fur, just says 'Please don't die..please don't die...'
Rudri says softly, "the birth will occur soon... within a half hour."
Marna says, "I'll try not to."
Marna grins weakly
Erych wishes he could help..but..
I don't know which one you mean!
You see nothing special.
Marna is a player.
Blackwolf looks worried, and sits on the floor, out of the way.

Marna says, "Your being here is help enough."
Hatch sits off to the side with Blackwolf.
Erych remains close by Marna's side..
Marna says, "Is Drielle coming, Blackie?"
Hatch looks very worried indeed.
Blackwolf holds his necklace and mutters a quick prayer to the gods of His
 world, hoping for Marna's safety.
Rudri says softly, "We're doing our best, Blackwolf."
Blackwolf looks at Marna, "She said she was going to be here...She is still
 asleeping."
Marna sighs.
You say, "She was awake much earlier on.."
You say, "About three hours ago.."
Marna winces and flinches.
Marna says, "ohhhh"
Blackwolf has been here since 10 EST, and she hasnt been on....
Blackwolf looks worried.
Rudri says softly, "this may take a while..."
Hatch feels helpless.
Rudri says softly, "the child is very large..."
Rudri says softly, "much larger than normal."
Erych looks guilty.
Rudri says softly, "there may be complications."
Blackwolf says, "I shall wait for as long as it takes.  "
Erych squeezes Marna's hand..
Hatch says, "Is there anything I can do to help?  Anything at all?"
Marna says, "Please, stop that erych... It's not your fault."
Rudri says softly, "there is nothing to do but wait."
Erych can't even heal her.
Marna closes her eyes.
Rudri says softly, "magic would be bad for her."
Blackwolf nods, "If you need it though for any reason, just say the word and
 my Source can be here."
You say, "There is plenty here, for when it *can* be used.."
Rudri nods.
Rudri looks around cooly.
Blackwolf knows...but is still worried.
Hatch doesn't have any magic.  He's just *here*.
Marna says, "I think we have enough help of the supernatural variety..."
Marna says, "I'm glad you are all here for me."
Blackwolf crosses his fingers, hoping his mate will arrive in time!
Milo. pages:  Milo. pages, "da?" to you.
Hatch is glad Marna wants him here, even if he is just an observer.
Erych blinks.
You say, "I...he just..."
Marna suddenly puts her hand on her stomach.
Marna says, "he kicked."
You say, "He just spoke to me.."
Marna says, "Who?"
Erych is afraid to talk back..
You say, "Milo!"
Blackwolf blinks!
Erych doesn't know if he should talk back..
Marna says, "you mean he???"
Marna points at her stomach.
Blackwolf says, "Rudri, would it be alright if Erych was to respond??"
Marna looks at hatch.
Hatch looks back at Marna.  "Yes?"
Erych nods..him.
Rudri says softly, "I do not see the harm in trying... he is here with us..."
Erych hmms..
Milo. is currently not accepting pages.
Erych would, except the cute little guy isn't accepting pages.
Marna closes her eyes again and concentrates on breathing evenly.
Rudri says softly, "talk to him."
Milo. is currently not accepting pages.
You say, "..Milo?"
Milo. pages:  Milo. pages, "da?" to you.
You say, "..Milo...it's time for you to see the world, my son.."
Milo. pages:  Milo. pages, "frublert!" to you.
Erych hmms.
You say, "Anyone know what 'frublert' means?"
Erych grins.
Marna says, "what is he saying?"
Erych grins just a bit, that is.
Marna holds her stomach.
You say, "But he's calling me 'da'.."
Rudri says softly, "he must know..."
Lynn_Dragon has connected.
Blackwolf says, "Frublert?  It means nothing in my tongue."
Lynn_Dragon waves...
Milo. pages:  Milo. pages, "grapiuyljuthppppp!" to you.
Erych hmms.
Marna starts into a fit of hard coughing.
Blackwolf looks worried.
Marna winces.'
Erych looks concerned!
Glacia has arrived.
Glacia is from the far, frozen North...a polar bear.  She stands nearly 8 feet
 tall, her voluptuous body covered with a soft, thick layer of white fur.  She
 has long, wavy white hair, which hangs down in front just barely enough to
 cover her well-endowed chest.  Her cute bear-ish face is framed by her ivory
 locks, and her ice-blue eyes sparkle at you.  Despite her large size, she
 looks like she has a gentle and warm heart, waiting to share her abundant
 love with all who will accept it.
Carrying:
A silver engagement ring from Hatch.
a huge blue cape, fastened at the shoulders, that match her ice-blue eyes (+10
 PRE, OAF (-1), 5 pts)
Button: I'm Hatch's snow angel!(#13144C)
A half-heart necklace with the name "Hatch" on it.
worn:  Desdi's sunglasses (Flash Defense 5, OAF (-1), 2 pts)
A dozen red roses from dear sweet Hatch
button:  Yes, I speak Foxish.
An ice cube
A single pink rose, with a white ribbon tied around it.
clothes:  clothes?  I'm a polar bear, I don't need clothes, I have nice warm
 fur!  Hug me and find out!
Glacia says, "Hi everyone..."
Erych looks engrossed in the goings-on.
Glacia looks concerned at Marna.
Hatch waves Glacia over.
Marna rasps, "thanks, Lynn... Glacia."
You say, "it seems to hurt her every time he speaks.. :("
Glacia drops Medical kit in a big white sack.
Marna rasps, "ohhhhhh"
Hatch bites at his fingernails (he has fingernails?).
Rudri says softly, "it is happening very soon."
Erych just holds Marna's hand reassuringly, and strokes her face..
Milo. pages:  Milo. pages, "da?" to you.
Jade has arrived.
Jade waves hi!
Rudri smiles at Jade.
Lynn_Dragon shushes her cousin.
You say, "Da.."
Glacia checks Marna's pulse at her wrist...
Glacia gets a worried look on her face.
Hatch bites his lip.
Marna rasps, "has he said anything else, Erych?"
Glacia looks worriedly to Erych, "Her pulse is very weak!"
You say, "No... just 'da'...and nonsense..."
Marna rasps, "AAAHHHHHHHHOOO!!"
Marna clinches her fists.
Erych winces...
Hatch looks startled.
Erych does not remove his hand from her clenched grip.
Rudri says softly, "it is happening."
Lionman pages:  Lionman pages you with one of those little, tiny beeper
 thingys, "Hi."
Glacia nods, "It is..."
Rudri lifts the shirt above Marna's midriff.
You page, "Hi. Busy just now." to Lionman.
Glacia wishes Dr. Snowbank were here to...
Katerina pages:  Katerina pages, "Everything okay?" to you.
You page, "Not sure.. :(" to Katerina.
Lionman pages:  Lionman pages you with one of those little, tiny beeper
 thingys, "Okie Dokie."
Glacia wows at Marna, "I've never seen anything like this before."
Marna's belly is stretched extremely and has lost most of its fur...
Katerina pages:  Katerina pages, "Where are you?  Can I help?" to you.
Blackwolf watches in amazement.
Hatch looks stunned.
Rudri gently massages the sides of her belly.
Glacia winces sympathetically.
Glacia listens to Marna's heart with a stethoscope.
Marna's breathing becomes a little ragged.
You page, "No..I thank you for the offer, but you should probably just pray.."
 to Katerina.
You say, "Come on...stay with us..."
Marna says through clinched teeth, "I'm... Trying..."
Glacia says, "Her heartbeat is irregular...weak..."
Blackwolf offers up another prayer to the Great Lards quietly.
You whisper, "Lards? They fat?" to Blackwolf.
Rudri mutters something not so nice about the 'great' lords.
Glacia mumbles that she doesn't know what good prayers will do now...we need a
 good hospital operating room.
Erych rests his forehead against Marna's arm and shoulder..
Erych has to try *hard* not to pour his magical energy into her..
Blackwolf whispers, "I shall not take offence since you know naught of my
 land.  Lards is the word for the Gods and Goddesses of my land."
Glacia says, "Damn it, I'm a nurse, not a theologian..."
Rudri says softly, "don't. that would be very bad..."
Blackwolf also refrains....
Hatch watches, feeling totally helpless.
Glacia looks very, very worried.
Marna's eyes roll back into her head briefly.
You say, "No more helpless than I, Hatch..."
Erych looks painfully worried.
Marna screams, AAAIIIEIEEEE!!
Jade says, "Can't you help her, Rudri?"
Hatch jumps!
Glacia says, "Marna!"
Rudri says softly, "magic is what caused this...."
Rudri says softly, "oh..."
Blackwolf panics!
Rudri says softly, "the baby is coming..."
Glacia checks Marna frantically...
Glacia says, "Damn right the baby's coming..."
Hatch looks very very scared.
Glacia mutters something about stone knives and bearskins.
Rudri says softly, "I see a glint of... gold?"
Rudri looks at Glacia coldly.
Erych watches..for it is all he can do..
Rudri says softly, "I've been doing this aeons before your ancestors were even
 a concept."
Blackwolf blinks.
Hatch thinks this is no time for a arguement ladies.
Glacia frowns, "Like I said, I'm a nurse not a theologian.  There's a baby on
 the way, let's worry about Marna..."
Blackwolf nods.
Hatch worries about Marna plenty.
Glacia moves over to help Marna in any way she can.  "Would tranquilizers...?"
Marna rasps weakly. "help me, Mistress."
Erych has been worrying about Marna for the last three days.
Rudri says softly, "I'm trying, my servant."
Blackwolf looks to Rudri, "Isnt there anything you can do?", Knowing the
 answer...
You say, "Marna...stay...for me...please..."
Rudri shakes her head at Glacia.
Glacia says, "I didn't think so."
( The baby's head appears. )
# spoofed by Rudri #
Blackwolf gasps!
Marna rasps weakly. "AAAIIE!"
Hatch's jaw drops.
Lynn_Dragon gasps!
Rudri assist's the infant's egress.
Marna gasps for breath.
Glacia reaches for the baby, then looks up at Rudra, deferring to the
 so-called goddess.
Hatch watches.  "Oh...oh my god...."
Rudri says softly, "goddess..."
Blackwolf just stares!
Jade says, "Nifty!  Cute baby!"
Lynn_Dragon shushes her cousin.
Marna rasps weakly. "ohhh---AAIIIEE!"
Rudri says softly, "she's hemmorhaging."
Glacia says, "Marna...Marna!"
Rudri says softly, "the child is too large."
Blackwolf bites his lip.
Glacia curses under her breath, damn damn damn.
You say, "Marna..."
Marna rasps weakly. "erych..."
Hatch gulps.
Erych waits until the moment he is out...his power is ready..
Marna closes her eyes for one last push...
Marna rasps weakly. "ERRRGGGG!!"
You say, "Come on...push..!"
Lynn_Dragon crosses her fingers.  Er, claws.
Rudri assists.
Milo. is born!
Blackwolf prepares to channel, to suppliment Ercyh's healing when the time is
 come.
Jade says, "Yay!"
Jade cheers Milo.!
Erych's horn flashes BRIGHTLY!
Lynn_Dragon shushes Jade again.
Milo. opens his mouth as if to scream, but no sound comes out.
Rudri holds Milo.
Glacia looks at Rudri, and Milo.
Erych pours healing energies into Marna.
Marna smiles at erych.
Marna whispers, "I love you."
Blackwolf channels energy to Erych, hoping to increase his power.
Marna dies.
Hatch looks on, confused and amazed.
Blackwolf says, "NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Hatch gasps!
Hatch says, "MARNA!"
Glacia kneels over Marna, checking her, then looks up, "She's dead, Erych."
Erych doesn't notice.  He continues...
Rudri says softly, "hmmm"
Blackwolf pushes more power to Erych, hoping he can do something!
Erych's eyes well with tears as he continues to pour energy into her..
Rudri summons another assistant
Vandara has arrived.
You see nothing special.
Hatch looks stunned.  "Oh god...oh my god..."
This is the dead form of Marna, high priestess of Rudri.
Hatch looks shocked.
Erych is muttering under his breath.
Rudri looks at the body.
Erych is chanting, actually.  Over and over.  Three words.
Jade cries!
Lynn_Dragon is too shocked to do anything.
Rudri says softly, "this is a pity..."
Glacia's eyes well up with tears!
Rudri says softly, "Vandara, take the soul back."
Blackwolf says, "Lards, no!!!!!!"
Vandara rasps weakly. "yes, Mistress."
Hatch cries.  "No...no...it can't be..."
Vandara vanishes.
Blackwolf can no longer channel to Erych...his Source is in too dangerous a
 condition now.
Rudri says softly, "imputent wench"
Erych continues his endeavors..
Glacia's eyes, full of tears, meet Hatch's...and she opens her arms to him.
Blackwolf cries out!
Rudri says softly, "imitating her like that..."
Hatch hugs Glacia and cries on her shoulder.
Erych's words can be heard, now.. "...I love you...I love you...I love you..."
Lynn_Dragon sighs sadly
Erych's horn dims slightly, his power is waning.
Rudri comforts Milo, who seems to be crying silently.
Lynn_Dragon curls her tail around Erych's waist and gives him a snug.
Lynn_Dragon is too shocked to cry.
Milo. looks around.
Blackwolf comes up to Erych weakly, "I am so sorry...I am so sorry.", tears
 running down his face.
Erych's horn dims yet more.  Still he tries to bring her back.
Rudri says softly, "this is quite inconvenient"
Desdi pages:  A tiny little imp comes scurrying up to you and squeeks, "Desdi
 says 'hey, you. :)'"
Glacia straightens up, still hugging Hatch, "Come now, everyone <sniffle>...we
 don't want the first thing that Milo. experiences to be sadness and anguish,
 do we?"
You page, "..Marna...died...." to Desdi.
Desdi pages:  In a page-pose to you, Desdi raises an eyebrow.
Milo. sniffles.
Glacia says, "I don't think Marna would want that...she'd want us all to be
 brave, and go on, and care for her son like she would..."
Jade says, "Inconvenient?"
Milo. struggles to get out of Rudri's arms.
Rudri says softly, "yes..."
Erych's horn dims all at once, and Erych slumps to rest somewhat upon Marna's
 body. He mutters, then says more loudly, "..NOOOOO!!!"
Rudri says softly, "she WAS my high priestess here..."
Erych sobs..
Rudri looks at erych.
Rudri says softly, "I could bring her back, though."
Glacia says, "Come on, there's a new life here...Marna's son...Erych.  Marna's
 gone.  But Milo's here...he needs you now..."
Blackwolf leaps towards Rudri, "DO SO!!!!!"
Hatch is still in shock.
Jade hms, "If she's gone then I'm head priestess now?"
Rudri holds her hand up toward Blackwolf.
Lynn_Dragon frowns at her cousin and wraps her furry coils around her,
 especially around her mouth.
Blackwolf stops in his tracks suddenly. 
Rudri looks at Jade.
Jade says, "Hey, that's sorta cool, that means that now I *MRPH MRPH MPRH!*"
Rudri says softly, "you have not nearly the power yet..."
Erych looks around slowly, to view his son for the first time..
Baby Milo is just an infant.  If you stand him on his feet, (and he will stand
 on his own if you put him there) he's about two and a half feet tall.  He is
 covered with short black fur, has a vaguely equine head, and has a small
 golden horn protruding from his forehead.  He looks hungry.
Rudri hands Milo. to his father.
Erych is torn between the love he should feel for his son, and the anger he
 should feel for her killer..
Glacia says, "Hold him Erych...you're his parent, his only parent now...love
 him, like Marna does."
Blackwolf glares at Rudri, "If you have the power than do so!!!  Or my god, I
 shall never forgive you!"
Rudri smirks at Blackwolf.
Rudri says softly, "YOU forgive ME???"
Rudri laughs.
Blackwolf growls, knowing there is naught he can do. 
Erych holds his son..unsure about *what* to think...he continues to sob,
 silently..
Katerina pages:  Katerina pages, "Is it true?" to you.
Milo. grabs hold of Erych's horn.
Glacia says, "Erych, he's your son, you can't hate him.  He's the living
 embodiment of all the love that Marna felt for you..."
You page, "...she...is dead..." to Katerina.
Rudri says softly, "the child did not kill her..."
Katerina pages:  Katerina pages, "ERYCH!" to you.
You page, "...the child lives..." to Katerina.
Rudri says softly, "he does not have the power to take life."
Erych looks at his son..it pains him to even consider that...yet...
Katerina pages:  Katerina pages, "Who cares for the child?  You?" to you.
Glacia holds Hatch in her arms, comforting him.
Katerina pages:  Katerina pages, "Are you okay?" to you.
Milo. slobbers all over erych.
Blackwolf falls to the floor, tears streaming down his face.
You page, "...yes, I...and...I don't know..." to Katerina.
Jade *MRPH*s
Rudri says softly, "although, as I said, I do have the power to return it..."
Erych holds his son..yet still feels distant from him...
You say, "Why do you hesitate?"
Milo. plays with Daddy's beard.
Blackwolf looks up, "I beg of you Rudri, please, please do it?"
Rudri says softly, "there must be a sacrifice."
You say, "Me."
Glacia says, "Erych, he can sense that...he's no killer, Erych.  He's your
 son, and Marna's son.  You sobbed that you love Marna; now show Milo that
 same love."
Rudri shakes her head.
Katerina pages:  Katerina pages, "Come here as soon as you can, or meet me
 somewhere, if you need me, because I'll be right here.  I love you." to you.
Tugrik has arrived.
Blackwolf gawks..."What kind of Sacrifice?!"
Rudri says softly, "even *I* am not that cruel."
Tugrik teleports in as he gets page-news from Erych, looking extremely
 worried.
You page, "Need you not go?" to Katerina.
Lynn_Dragon still looks shocked, and continues to keep Jade muffled with her
 coils.
Katerina pages:  Katerina pages, "I love you.  Do you need me?  I am here." to
 you.
[Tugrik has just looked at you.]
You page, "I...I will need you..." to Katerina.
Blackwolf stands, tears streaming, "What is it you need then Rudri."
Katerina pages:  Katerina pages, "Now what do we do?" to you.
Erych holds Milo in his arms..he look up at Tugrik, teary-eyed.  "H..hello."
Rudri looks at erych.
Jade *MRPH MRPH MRPH*
You page, "I do not know.." to Katerina.
Tugrik looks coldly at Rudri.  NOW she talks. After tug tried HRAD to talk to
 her, to get information, to see if he could help *AVOID
Glacia holds Hatch, cuddling him.
Tugrik...this.
Rudri glares at Tugrik coldly.
Lynn_Dragon's tail snakes over around Tugrik's waist...
Erych tries to love the child which was the cause of Marna's death..
Lynn_Dragon hisses, "Tuggie...calm down..."
Rudri looks at Lynn_Dragon
Tugrik glares back, a look of a simple creature, upset with some form of
 "goddess" he has no respect for.  Simple communication as to what was going
 on may have allowed this one to ehlp, bEFORE this.
Tugrik stays quiet.  Very quiet.  But it's hard, and his form shakes softly.
Erych is also shaking.
Lynn_Dragon lets go Jade and hugs Tugrik with her furry coils.
Jade gasps for air.  "Wheh!"
Rudri says softly, "Erych."
Erych looks up at Rudri.
Rudri says softly, "what are you willing to give up for her return."
[Blackwolf has just looked at you.]
Erych has no idea.  He offered all he had to give, and was refused.
Lynn_Dragon squeezes Tugrik softly in her furry coils, to calm him down.
Blackwolf offers anything in his power to give.
Rudri is amused at all the offers she is receiving...
Tugrik is standing by the deceased body of Marna, and looking down.  His gaze
 avoids Rudri, as if he didn't want the room to see what disgust that woudl
 cause.
Katerina pages:  Katerina pages, "Where are you?  I'm worried about you." to
 you.
Rudri smirks at Jade.
You page, "I am at the birth scene.." to Katerina.
Jade shrugs, "Was worth a try..."
Blackwolf says, "What is there to be amused of, goddess?  We all loved her. 
 We will do anything needed to bring her back.""
Tugrik very simply nods to Blackwolf.
Katerina pages:  Katerina pages, "No shit.  Where are you?  How can I reach
 you?" to you.
Rudri says softly, "are you willing to give up her memory of you, Erych."
You page, "I don't think it would be good right now :(" to Katerina.
Erych blinks.
You say, "Wh..what do you mean?"
Rudri says softly, "I can bring her back, but she will not know who you are."
Blackwolf glares at Rudri, "How could you do that to him...take anything but
 that!  Take her memories of me or something, or mine of her! But dont do that
 to him!"
Jade considers saying "Aw, but if you bring her back then I won't be chief
 priestess!" but she sees her cousin's big strong coils and decides against
 it.
Rudri looks at Blackwolf coldly.
Katerina pages:  In a page-pose to you, Katerina bites her lower lip.  Please,
 please take care of yourself.
Rudri says softly, "Your time will come, Jade."
Jade says, "He did offer his life, Blackwolf..."
Erych looks back to his son.  "And Milo?"
Tugrik is trying extremely hard to keep from bursting out in anger to Rudri. 
 But his years of experience bottling feelings keeeps him with eyes glued to
 Marna's body, back to the 'goddess' with no heart.
Blackwolf glares at Jade with a look that could kill.
Rudri says softly, "she will remember him, she just won't remember the
 father."
You page, "I shall...are you going to be around much longer..?" to Katerina.
Jade says, "What if I tell her?"
You say, "He will be with her..?"
Rudri says to Tugrik, "I have a heart..."
Hatch looks nervously at Glacia.
Rudri says softly, "yes, but he also knows that you are his father."
Katerina pages:  Katerina pages, "If you want me to stay.  I am just at my
 wits' end right now." to you.
Tugrik cannot speak to Rudri. He'd blow up.  So he's not.
Milo. slobbers on Erych's chest again.
Lynn_Dragon's coils wrap around Tugrik's shoulder and massage gently, to calm
 him down.
Lynn_Dragon considers gagging Tuggie like she did Jade.
Erych cuddles his son. "So what is the point?  She will rediscover it."
Jade looks over at Blackwolf, "What's your problem, anyway?"
Glacia snuggles Hatch close.
Rudri says softly, "Will she?"
Blackwolf slowly fights for control of himself.
Hatch looks worried.
Rudri smiles.
Jade thinks Blackwolf's weird.
Erych looks at Marna's body.  He cannot stand to see her like that. "Alright. 
 Do it."
Rudri says softly, "very well/"
Blackwolf growls...
Glacia says softly, "What's wrong, Hatch love?  Well, besides the obvious..."
Tugrik is between Rudri and Marna's body.  
Rudri picks up the body.
Tugrik will have to be walked over to get there. Or at least dealt with.
Lynn_Dragon could pull Tugrik out of the way, if she wanted to...
You say, "Tugrik.  Move.  Please."
Rudri walks into the Shrine.
Rudri has left.
Lynn_Dragon hisses, "Tugrik, pleassse...don't make me do thisss..."
Erych thinks it was done, anyway.
Lynn_Dragon hms, "Goddess magic."
Blackwolf says, "The body is gone anyway."
Erych meditates a bit.
Milo. pulls on his father's beard.
Jade says, "Yeah, Rudri's one cool goddess, ain't she?"
Erych strokes little Milo's mane.
Hatch looks up at Glacia.  "I...I...I'm scared."
Jade says, "Don't worry, Marna will be out, good as new!"
Blackwolf has lost any respect he one had for her.
Glacia snuggles Hatch, "Scared of what, hon?"
Blackwolf wishes his mate were here.
Tugrik SCREAMS out... in an extremely loud yell.. and those near him are
 pushed away a few feet by a wall of force.  A racing blue bolt of energy
 lances around this set perimeter, whirling about the unicorn, picking up
 strength, sizzling hot.
Erych holds his son protectively..
Lynn_Dragon eeps as her coils fly off Tugrik, "Ow!"
Tugrik's SCREAM ends with the sound of a violent implosion, and a burst of
 energy around teh srhine. and the blue unicorn is gone.
Hatch eeks!
Tugrik has left.
Lynn_Dragon has some burnt fur, owie.
Blackwolf shields his eyes.
Hatch whispers to Glacia.
Glacia chuckles soflty at the word 'owie' for some reason, and snuggles Hatch.
Erych sighs..
Lynn_Dragon sighs also.
Jade says, "Hey stop sighing, you heard Rudri!  She'll be okay!"
Rudri pages:  Rudri pages, "you feel your fur stand on end..." to you.
Glacia aws, "Hatch, don't worry hon...this won't happen to me..."
Erych shivers.
Milo. puts his arms around Dady's neck and hugs him.
Glacia says, "I'm sure, Hatch love..."
Blackwolf approaches Erych, "I am sorry I could not have done more for you. 
 Your son is one to be proud of.  He will be a great noble someday."
Desdi pages:  A tiny little imp comes scurrying up to you and squeeks, "Desdi
 says 'so, uh...how're you?'"
You page, "..." to Desdi.
Baby Milo is just an infant.  If you stand him on his feet, (and he will stand
 on his own if you put him there) he's about two and a half feet tall.  He is
 covered with short black fur, has a vaguely equine head, and has a small
 golden horn protruding from his forehead.  He looks hungry.
Erych hugs Milo..
Glacia picks up Hatch, and buries her muzzle in his neck affectionately,
 "...it won't happen to me..."
Desdi pages:  A tiny little imp comes scurrying up to you and squeeks, "Desdi
 says '*hug*'"
You page, "*hug*" to Desdi.
Jade hugs Milo.!
Desdi pages:  A tiny little imp comes scurrying up to you and squeeks, "Desdi
 says 'you gonna be okay?'"
Jade says, "We can all help raise him!"
You page, "Should be ok." to Desdi.
Jade says, "When he gets old enough, I can teach him about sex and stuff!"
Desdi pages:  A tiny little imp comes scurrying up to you and squeeks, "Desdi
 says 'you sure?'"
You say, "He needs food...I can't give it to him."
Hatch walks over to Jade.
Lynn_Dragon decides it's DEFINITELY time to gag Jade.
You page, "Should be, yeah. Thanks." to Desdi.
Blackwolf growls low in his throat at Jade.
Lynn_Dragon wraps her coils around Jade's head.
Hatch SLAPS Jade across the face.  "Shut up."
Desdi pages:  A tiny little imp comes scurrying up to you and squeeks, "Desdi
 says '*hug* i worry.'"
Jade is slapped and coiled!
Jade says, "Oowwww*MRPH*!"
Jade shuts up.
Hatch walks back over to Glacia.
Glacia picks up Hatch again and cuddles him some more.
Milo. giggles at the funny panda.
Erych. wonders why there is a period there.
Blackwolf wonders also....
Lynn_Dragon says OOC that there is another character named Milo
Blackwolf ahs.
The wizards currently online are: Lionman
Glacia says, "Oh, I get it..."
You page, "When did 'Milo' last connect?" to Lionman.
Milo. squirms to be put down.
Erych puts Milo. down.
Blackwolf looks through bloodshot eyes, down at the little 'corn.
Lynn_Dragon whispers, "Did you log?"
You say, "Blackwolf...peace."
Milo. sits down and plays with his toes.
You whisper, "Yes." to Lynn_Dragon.
Lynn_Dragon whispers, "*hugs!*"
Blackwolf nods, bloodshot from the tears, not from anger.
Desdi pages:  A tiny little imp comes scurrying up to you and squeeks, "Desdi
 says 'so where're you?'"
You page, "Marna's." to Desdi.
Lionman pages:  Lionman pages you with one of those little, tiny beeper
 thingys, "He's been on for an hour and 15 minutes."
Jade mrphs, "MRPH MRPH MRPH!"
You page, "I'll be fine." to Desdi.
Desdi pages:  A tiny little imp comes scurrying up to you and squeeks, "Desdi
 says 'where is that? (or would i be intruding?)'"
You page, "'Milo' not 'Milo.'" to Lionman.
You page, "Probably best not to come here, no." to Desdi.
Desdi pages:  A tiny little imp comes scurrying up to you and squeeks, "Desdi
 says '*sigh* okay...'"
Lionman pages:  Lionman pages you with one of those little, tiny beeper
 thingys, "Yes, Milo.  He's still connected."
You page, "No period, Lionman.  Just 'Milo'" to Lionman.

Rudri has arrived.
Erych looks down at Milo and smiles weakly.
Rudri smiles.
Lynn_Dragon hisses, "He'sss very handsssome, Erych"
Lynn_Dragon hisses, "Like hisss father."
Rudri drops Marna's body.
Lynn_Dragon hisses, "I wonder if he'll need glassssssesss too..."

Vandara has arrived.

Vandara has left.

Rudri waves her hands.
Marna has arrived.
Katerina pages:  Katerina pages, "No, I will stay if you need me." to you.
Erych watches Marna..
Marna purrgrowls, "Hello?"
Marna is a five and a half foot tall mink with shiny black fur all over her
 body.  Her form is sleek and definitely female.  Bright green eyes shine from
 her face, and small sharp teeth gleam below them.  Her movements are sudden
 and often difficult to follow.  For the warmer weather of the summer, she has
 opted for the 'natural look' and is going 'in the fur'.
Hatch blinks?
Blackwolf cries out softly!
Marna purrgrowls, "what are all you doing here?"
Marna purrgrowls, "OH!"
Erych is just..here.
Jade mrphs, "MRPHMRPH!"
Hatch turns around.  "Marna????"
Marna bows on one knee t her goddess.
Lynn_Dragon hisses, "Marna-chan!!!"
Erych wipes away a tear or three.
Lynn_Dragon lets go of Jade in her excitement!
Milo. crawls over to mommy.
Hatch says, "Marna!"
Glacia says, "Marna!  <blink> <blink>"
Rudri has left.
Blackwolf's tears once again start flowing down his face.
Glacia rushes over to Marna with a stethoscope and places it on her chest.
Erych sits down, exhausted, and watches.
Hatch HUGS Glacia!  "She's alive!"
Glacia looks at Marna, "Aren't you dead?"
Marna purrgrowls, "Of course I'm alive!"
Jade says, "MARNA!"
Marna purrgrowls, "not the last time I checked?"
Marna picks up Milo.
You page, "She lives.." to Dagg.
Glacia HUGS Hatch and picks him up and spins around!  "Hurray!  <smile>"
Milo. hugs Mommy.
Jade says, "YAY!"
Erych watches all..
Jade looks around, "Where did Rudri go?"
Marna purrgrowls, "what are all of you doin here anyway?"
Marna purrgrowls, "she left."
Hatch looks VERY happy and VERY relieved.
Dagg pages:  In a page-pose to you, Dagg can feel his Bluehorse's friend's
 dream.  He's fearing that he only hurt his friends. For his sake, I hope that
 energy-bolt DID something. If it didn't, he's going to hate himself for nnot
 being able enough.
Blackwolf remains quiet, his head bowed, tears still streaming down his
 muzzle.
Jade aws.
Hatch smiles at Marna.
Marna purrgrowls, "What in the nine hells is going on?"
Lynn_Dragon looks at Marna, then looks that this strange unicorn man who
 Marna's never seen before.
Erych says softly, "Nothing."
Marna purrgrowls, "Who are you?"
Lynn_Dragon ums.
You say, "Nobody special."
Erych sniffs a bit.
Katerina pages:  Katerina pages, "Status report?" to you.
Blackwolf's head tilts back and a low howl escapes his lips.
Marna purrgrowls, "sheesh, what a sourpuss."
You page, "Rudri brought her back, with one condition." to Katerina.
Marna purrgrowls, "What's up, Blackie?"
Katerina pages:  Katerina pages, "HUH?" to you.
Marna purrgrowls, "How's Drielle?"
Erych is happy, but sad..
Glacia hugs Hatch happily!
Glacia says, "See, warmheart, she's okay!"
Glacia snuggles Hatch!
Marna purrgrowls, "A party sounds fun, but I gotta feed my kid."
Hatch hugs Glacia tightly!
Jade says, "Ooh, lucky kid!"
Blackwolf looks at Marna through tear streamed eyes, "A dear friend has been
 hurt deeper than any should ever be.  Though you shall never know the pain. 
 My mate has not been awake this night."
Hatch swats Jade with his tail.
Katerina pages:  Katerina pages, "condition???" to you.
You page, "She does not remember me...at all." to Katerina.
Jade envies little Milo!
Marna smirks at Jade.
Jade eeps!
Catherine pages:  Catherine long-distance purrrrrrrs: HIYA!!!!! *hug*
 Wassup....?
Blackwolf looks to Erych, with true sorrow in his eyes.
Jade says, "Watch it with that tail!"
You page, "Hi..busy.." to Catherine.
Erych seems to accept it as his lot..
Catherine pages:  Catherine long-distance purrrrrrrs: *nod* Ok....
Marna purrgrowls, "is that necklace what I think it is, Jade?"
Lynn_Dragon scowls at Jade.
Katerina pages:  Katerina pages, "Doesn't REMEMBER YOU. o... k... baby. :(" to
 you.
Jade nods!
Marna eyes Erych.
Jade says, "Need a junior priestess, Marna?"
Hatch glares at Jade.  "Watch it with that mouth."
Marna purrgrowls, "Cool!"
Dagg pages:  In a page-pose to you, Dagg frowns.  Feels that was POINTLESS
 roleplay. Would give tons to hear a simple "that little extra burst of energy
 helped out."
Jade says, "Heh.  You'd be surprised what things I can do with this mouth,
 Hatch!  ^_-"
Marna purrgrowls, "I will be glad to 'train' you."
You page, "I'm afraid the outcome was rather predetermined, Tug." to Dagg.
Dagg pages:  In a page-pose to you, Dagg notes the one who would say that,
 Rhudri, wasn't there. :(
Jade says, "Maybe I can teach you some things too!"
Marna smirks.
Dagg pages:  In a page-pose to you, Dagg nods.  But... it'd help.  Or is it
 "locked" play? Gah.
Lynn_Dragon wraps her furry coils around Erych, comfortingly.
Hatch laughs at Jade.  "Like I even WANT to know?"
Erych shivers slightly.
Hatch hugs Glacia.
Glacia snuggles Hatch.
Marna purrgrowls, "Could Milo and me be left alone?  I'll bet the little
 bugger is hungry."
Milo. nods at mommy.
You say, "Marna...take care of him."
Hatch smiles at Marna.  "Of course.   :)"
Blackwolf says, "Erych, I know I can never take the pain from you, but I shall
 bear a part of you burden..."
Marna looks curiously at Erych.
Marna purrgrowls, "Of course I will, You doof!"
You say, "Blackwolf...don't.  This is my burden alone."
Glacia smiles at Hatch mischeviously.
Marna winks at Erych.
Glacia looks over at Marna and Milo., then cuddles little Hatch.
Blackwolf head shakes, "Nay...no one should be so wronged. My heart will
 always be burned with what happened tonight.  A part of me died tonight
 also."
Dagg has arrived.
You say, "Well.  I'll leave you alone now."
Lynn_Dragon releases Erych from her coils.
You say, "Goodbye."
