Intro:
The Voice of Rhapsody freaks out and runs off to the Cathedral. We go there to investigate and Jarana walks in, announcing that the 'trap' is ready. The bait is Shan.

Shan takes the Rosewood Lute of Celestial Rhapsody in their hands and begins to
strum the strings gently, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath.

Shan continues to strum several of the strings, appearing more practiced, as
though they have done so a hundred times. His lips begin to move, mouthing
silent words.

Shan's fingers continue to pluck at the strings, causing the Rosewood Lute of
Celestial Rhapsody to release several dulcet tones that both warm and comfort
you simultaneously. Slowly he finds his voice, which rises up with a strange and
vibrant power lingering beneath it.

Shan's fingers race across the strings, sending a flurry of wild notes out,
which dance lightly across a soft, slow hymn that lingers behind them, echoing
from somewhere within his voice.

Shan moans softly as he cranes his neck, and suddenly a white light consumes his
eyes. A beautiful and rapturous voice echoes from deep within him, nearly
drowning out their own, which lingers beneath the solemn, wordless hymn.

Shan's voice rises once more, the air about him vibrating as the lofty notes
echo throughout the Deep Blue Cathedral. Slowly white light begins to coalesce
behind him, heralding the slow appearance of angelic wings, at first completely
translucent before solidifying.

The wings behind Shan's back spread beautifully, trailing motes of liquid light
which drip downwards towards the stone floor, evaporating as they make contact.
he continues to sing in the powerful, divine voice, its feminine beauty
overpowering as it rises upwards.

A soft, celestial voice drifts out of New Celest, rising and falling with the
winds and the tides as though it was a part of them, pulling them and guiding
them. The very light that shines down upon the Basin of Life seems brighter for
it, fed by the angelic, divine song.

Shan's voice slows and the wings begin to fade, melting away in drops of liquid,
celestial light bit by bit. The Rosewood Lute of Celestial Rhapsody, in Shan's
hands, glows a brilliant white, completely consumed by the radiance. As it
fades, it too is gone.

Slowly Shan opens his eyes, an overwhelming sadness burdening their visage.

Suzaku wraps a comforting arm around Shan.

Furious and angry shrieks and howls sweep across the Basin of Life, as a
massive, swirling tempest manifests itself over the Inner Sea, drawing westwards
towards New Celest, following the lingering, celestial music.

As the Tempest draws near the shimmering walls of New Celest it seems to
hesitate, before passing through the shield cast by the Star, casting howling
and acidic winds upon the city.

The five beams of light that rise out of the Deep Blue Cathedral - one pink, one
cobalt, one of white flame, one of topaz, and one of sparkling white motes -
flare brilliantly, twisting and reaching towards the Star of Celest.

As each of the beams reaches the Star of Celest, the shield grows more brilliant
and more powerful, swirls of colour racing down the face of the shield while
white flames and sparkles rain down upon the city, causing the storm to howl in
agony and rage.

Suddenly the Star flares with power, the sparkling motes of light and flame
swirling about the city, dragging the angry winds with them, before pulling them
up into the glittering Star. Within but a moment a radiant ray streams down into
the heart of the city.

The Star of Celest's radiance begins to dull, the shield's colour returning to
its original, soft white. The skies above the Basin of Life begin to clear, a
pure, pristine feel to the air.

On the ground floor of the Deep Blue Cathedral.
This location is flooded with shallow, crystal clear water. A beautiful lectern
of pearl and coral, delicately carved with scenes of the sea, sits across from
the pulpit set in the Cathedral's centre. Perfectly crafted of silver and opal,
an ornamental pulpit engraved with Celestial imagery sits at one side of the
raised platform in the Cathedral's centre. The graceful figure of a marble woman
is here, a ceramic amphora perched at an angle atop her head, streams of liquid
light pouring from its mouth. A painting of the Exalted Lord is proudly
exhibited on a nearby wall. A sigil in the shape of a small, rectangular
monolith is on the ground. Passing through the distant ceiling without err, a
pillar of pure white light illuminates all about it without casting shadows.
White robes clinging to her lithe figure, Jarana Farain stands here, her fins
rising and falling gracefully. With her wings spread, a divine deva floats in
the air before you. A young rat cautiously noses about for food here. Abbot Otem
Ama'nar'isil is here. Shan Dekoven, Canticle of the Righteous is here, shrouded.
He wields a golden sunburst shield in his right hand. Aqua Adept Barendur
Dekoven is here, shrouded. He wields a coral staff in his left hand and a
celestial aegis shield in his right. He is surrounded by one reflection of
himself. Father Talkan La'Saet, Loyalty of Exultation is here. He wields an
ivory symbol bearing a black and gold trimmed amphora in his left hand. Tonni
Ama'nar'isil, Disciple of the Exalted is here. He wields a twin dragon tahto
staff with both hands. Postulant Suzaku, Methrenton's Phoenix is here.
You see exits leading north, northeast, southeast, southwest, northwest, up, and
out (open door).

Softly, Postulant Suzaku, Methrenton's Phoenix says, "Such is the power and fury
of the Light."

Jarana Farain exclaims, "It goes now to Celestia! To arms, let not the Supernals
fight alone!"

With a flick of her fins, Jarana Farain leaves to the out, wet robes swaying
with each movement.

- onwards to Celestia! -

The light of Celestia surrounds you as you reach out and touch the Guardian
Altar of Celestial Justice.
An angelic choir can be distantly heard, as an angelic presence embraces you and
whisks you away.

(missing a piece of the action here)

In a brilliant flare of light, Elohora, Lady of the Eternal Light bursts into
existence, quickly adding her own power to the net wielded by the Crown of the
Exalted, taking the side opposite of Eventru. Together, twin, radiant forms of
ivory and gold, they begin to strengthen the net, pulling half of the swirling
madness away from the other.

Quickly Methrenton joins the frey once more, diving through the net of power
into the tempest, struggling to hold his weapons against the acidic, corrosive
winds. Her back turned to the others, Shakiniel stands careful guard against the
other half, though it begins its descent into the Holy Lands themselves.

Japhiel, Illuminator of Merciful Justice shouts, "It is up to you, New Celest! I
will protect Raziela - quickly! Slay this half, while Father and the others
remove the other! It is weakened here upon Celestia! The Light shall burn
through the darkness, no matter how dark the hour!"

Suzaku brandishes his fists defiantly.

- walking around looking for the tempest -


(Celest): You say, "Where is it?"

Beneath a hill of celestial sand.
A rhythmic thrumming saturates the area, drawing attention to a war shrine of
Terentia nearby. This location is flooded with shallow, crystal clear water. The
fossilized remains of Otem are here. The fossilized remains of Tonni are here.
The fossilized remains of Meliana are here. Hovering in the air, a seraphic
angel warms the surroundings with his inner light. A beatific cherub flitters in
the air, giggling with delight. A furious tempest churns the air wildly here,
distorting its surroundings with gales of corrosive winds.
You see exits leading north, east, south, west, and up.

Far above Methrenton and Shakiniel begin to batter and push against the twisting
winds, while Eventru and Elohora continue their struggle to maintain the net,
their shouted voices drowned out by the winds that race across the Holy Lands.

Raziela the Loving Radiance shouts, "Wha... What's going on, Japhiel? Where is
Methrenton?"

- regrouping at the Pool for the second assault -

You see Postulant Suzaku, Methrenton's Phoenix yell, "Praises be to the Light!"

A rippling tear far above forms in the sky, dark and vast yet littered with
stars. Twin, winged figures race out from it, descending quickly towards the
Holy Land of Celestia.

Softly, Torili, Instructor of Light says, "Quickly, Tresalyne. We must find it."

Rustling quietly as he moves, Torili leaves to the south.

- Walking around looking for... something -

A figure of pure white light and a golden-winged trill rise up above the Holy
Plane of Celestia, bearing a golden chest betwixt them. A swirl of white ash
rises up against them, the faint howling noise of the wind dying out as they
turn towards it.

Together they begin to turn about the remnants of the tempest, casting the ash
within the chest. Bit by bit the howling shrieks begin to die, before they are
completely silenced.

Kialkarkea cheers wildly!

You clap your hands together merrily.

With a slow nod Tresalyne and Torili bind the chest once more, and Torili
releases his grip. In a brilliant flare of light the figure speeds northwards,
to the distant forms of the Supernals and the Elder God, all of which begin to

remnants of the Tempest.

into the void for the dragons to eat..."

Wuylinfe curves his lips slightly into a soft, warm smile.

Worriedly, Torili, Instructor of Light says, "Is the Voice of Rhapsody well?"

Shan Dekoven, Canticle of the Righteous says, "The Voice of Rhapsody, I believe
she is missing.."

You look thoughtful and say, "The last we saw of Her was in the cathedral."

Worriedly, Torili, Instructor of Light says, "I hope she is well. That thing, I
have learned its name, or what its name once was. A piece of Zenos, Tresalyne
believes."

Talkan nods his head at Torili, Instructor of Light.

Torili, Instructor of Light exclaims, "Zenos was notorious for hunting down the
Keepers of the Song!"

You shudder violently as a chill ripples down your spine.

You say, "Indeed, the Voice was gravely frightened..."

Sadly, Torili, Instructor of Light says, "We'll think of something, I am sure."

Rustling quietly as he moves, Torili leaves to the up.

Drifting regally on currents of power, a figure of pure light swirls off to the

- Tresalyne's description -

Clearly merian in heritage and of moderate height, this figure has been cast
purely of light, angelic wings spread wide behind him. His fans spreading out
behind his ears and his brilliant crests glorious though without detail except
shape and size, his eyes alone are not white - instead they are a radiant gold,
the colour of the dawning sun on a clear morning. Though of no great size, a
regal and imperial air about the merian lends him the sense of towering above
those around him, the fins on his fore-arms and calves stretched out like fans,
raw power and motes of light caressing his form completely, cloaking what little
detail remains of his naked, pure shape.
A figure of pure light almost glows with nearly god-like power.
He is strangely weightless.
You cannot see what a figure of pure light is holding.

Very awesome. Thanks for the log!

Aww, I missed the end.

Still really cool, though.

Nice, but that better have just been a piece of Zenos, because the Supernals/mortals should not be able to defeat Zenos, period.

Yeah, it was probably just Zenos' fart for all we know

And by the looks of the first part, the Canticle position feels like it was meant for a different... gender

Tempest is to Zenos as Daughter of Night is to Night.

With inflated power levels.

I think.

Probably, considering Zenos destroyed an entire forest by just, you know, standing there.

If Shan has maintained a log of what he saw, I think that'd explain why.

Booo, Zenos lost.

Correction, madam, Zenos's Fart lost to the combined might of Eventru (lol), Maylea and Celest.

Ah yes, it made sense after reading the latest Events post. Pretty neat! Though knowing Shan as I do, it did look a little strange/funny

It's a good log but also very upsetting... it doesn't really say what will happen with Tresalyne, and we didn't even get a moment's chance to talk about him. They just kept telling us stuff we already knew (first to discover Celestia, etc).

We don't know if he is going back into that pearl, or what. We asked for an effigy for him in the guildhall, but...

I hope we'll get an event half as cool to get rid of the Staff of Tainted Ire.

Very cool, if only I had held on to the spot for another... 9 months or so. Hmmm, well maybe not. Glad Shan got a cool role

I'd have faith in that. I'd also bet that it involves Ashtorath/Baalphegar rebelling and/or the machinations of an old House.
