About Crystals



You Snake!

Talia.Sunsong: "Hey, you, you, snake. You had shinies and you didn't share them."
Fiesty Lotus looks at Savage and holds out his pouch
Savage Taurus: You been going through my stuff, Nanny?
Fitheach Eun: She turns to the others to ask but...
Savage Taurus: That's it! You're all fired!

Talia.Sunsong: A dino chick, I mean, Rorn knocked your pouch over.
Savage Taurus: Gimme my stuff back
Fiesty Lotus: It holds crystals from the Dino place
Savage Taurus snatches at the pouch
Fiesty Lotus: They are yours of course - but where did you get them
Fitheach Eun watches the confrontation with interest
Savage Taurus: None of your business, hobbit
Savage Taurus: Gimme!

Fiesty Lotus: It is important for all of us
Fiesty Lotus hands over the crystals peaceably
Fiesty Lotus: All I want to know is where you got them
Savage Taurus: Oh, suddenly my stuff is 'important for us all'.
Savage Taurus: takes the pouch and hides it away
Fiesty Lotus: Yes, perhaps it will help us change you back
Savage Taurus: “Hmm...I kinda like this shape for now, and I'm not sure I trust you to go monkeying around with my form anymore.”

Fiesty Lotus nods and sighs
Savage Taurus: Why are you so interested in them?
Fiesty Lotus looks over at Druid Fit and sees she is making a potion
Talia.Sunsong: "You shinies are my shinies too."
Fiesty Lotus looks back at the Naga and says "We believe they may have some power to them
Rorn: exclaims with joy as he finds a crystal

Rorn Finds a Crystal

Savage Taurus: Whatcha got there, son?
Rorn: runs away to take the crystal to his hoard
Talia.Sunsong: "Hey, come back here with that shiny!"
Fitheach Eun sighs and goes back to the potion
Talia.Sunsong: chases Rorn around
Fitheach Eun: I think I need some wormwood....

Talia.Sunsong: Rorn runs around the library and onto the lab table.
Savage Taurus: Nanny, leave him be. I'll let him have that one.
Fiesty Lotus: Um, I think I got some, somewhere
Fitheach Eun: or maybe ummmm willow bark...
Rorn: squeaks and trips over a bowl, dropping the crystal with a plop into the potion.
Fitheach Eun: not sure what this will do.
Savage Taurus: Boy, you gots ta be more careful 'n that

The Potion Glows

Fitheach Eun jumps back as the potion begins to glow
Fiesty Lotus: Oh hey, I just saw Rorn drop something shiny into your potion Druid Fit!
Fitheach Eun: Oh?
Fitheach Eun gingerly stirs the glowing mixture
Rorn: tries to dig crystal out of potion
Savage Taurus: sighs, "ya got ta look after your stuff better, son"
Fitheach Eun: Careful Rorn that was an irritant

Savage Taurus: A dragon's hoard is very important
Fitheach Eun: I don't know what it is now
Rorn: snorts when he doesn't get the crystal
Savage Taurus: Whatcha need ta do is lay on your hoard so that it gets encrusted into your belly scales
Rorn: when he touches the potion, his eyes pop open and a slight glow comes over his skin
Rorn: jumps back
Savage Taurus: "Be careful there now, boy. These droods make some strange brew 'round here"

Fitheach Eun looks at the glow dripping from Rorn's claws
Savage Taurus: slithers forward to try to clean the goop off his son
Fitheach Eun: it was only a mild irritant for skin conditions
Savage Taurus: grabs anything he can to get it off
Talia.Sunsong: grabs a pitcher of tea and dumps it over Rorn
Fiesty Lotus: Well- It is more than that now

Talia Washes Off the Potion

Savage Taurus: Good thinkin' girl
Savage Taurus: looks at his son, worried what will happen to him
Savage Taurus: What was that stuff, elf drood?
Fitheach Eun looks at Rorn with interest; “That crystal must have increased the potion's power.”
Fiesty Lotus stares at the bottle "That there crystal did a job on that potion."
Fitheach Eun looks at Fiesty and raises her eyebrows
Fiesty Lotus nods

Savage Taurus: Whats gonna happen to ma boy?
Fiesty Lotus: "We might look thisun up."
Fitheach Eun: That tea should have washed it all off; he should be fine Savage
Savage Taurus: nods, "ok good"
Rorn: blinks and drips tea

Fitheach Eun smiles at the fae: " Good thinking, Talia."
Talia.Sunsong: "I'm a Fae genius."
Savage Taurus: Maybe you deserve a raise, but my stuff still ain't your stuff!
Fitheach Eun: And yes, we had better look this up
Fiesty Lotus looks at Rorn to see if he is well and then turns to the Library - looking for crystals as a book subject

Looking for Books on Crystals

Talia.Sunsong: "I think you can give me shinies as a raise."
Savage Taurus: Yea, I'll think about it, girl
Savage Taurus: You are a bit useful sometimes
Fitheach Eun: There are an awful lot of books here...
Savage Taurus: cringes at all the wretched books
Savage Taurus: Why do we haf ta spend so much tahm in this dang liberary?

Fiesty Lotus: After a time Fiesty looks at Druid Fit "Any luck?"
Fitheach Eun sighs, “no”
Savage Taurus: All these books in one place...it ain’t natural, I tell ya
Talia.Sunsong: grabs the corner of a rug to dry off Rorn. "There you go little one."
Savage Taurus: Thank ya fer taking care of ma boy
Talia.Sunsong: "Pay me in shinies."

Fiesty Lotus reads a complex title with Crystals in it
Fiesty Lotus: "This looks Promisin."
Fitheach Eun moves closer and look over Fiesty's shoulder
Fiesty Lotus startles as a blue head emerges from the book
Blue Head: Who disturbs my rest?

Whatdaya Want?

Fiesty Lotus: "Whaat!"
Savage Taurus: Holy geeez!! It's got a freakin' head!
Rorn: jumps out of Talia's arms and runs around the book crying "Head, blue!"
Blue Head: I was having a nice nap; whatdya want?
Fiesty Lotus: "Oh No. I didn'a mean ter wake yer"
Fitheach Eun watches the talking head suspiciously
Rorn: sniffs the head

Fiesty Lotus: I wuz lookin fer information on crystals
Talia.Sunsong: "Did someone shove you into the book?"
Blue Head: Crystals eh? Whatdya need to know?
Savage Taurus: slithers away quickly and hided under the table, muttering "That ain't right, that just ain't right"
Fiesty Lotus turns to Fit "What now? This be right strange"

Fitheach Eun whispers: " He seems inclined to be helpful?"
Fiesty Lotus looks back at the blue head and say "Well, der you know if crystals have power?
Blue Head: “Ummm yes, well, Crystals can increase the power of things? Is that your question?”
Blue Head: “And the colors have different effects”
Blue Head: “White crystals increase power for example”
Fiesty Lotus whispers "Oh - I didn't think of that."

Learning About Crystals

Blue Head: “Does that help? Can I go back to sleep now?”
Fiesty Lotus: Oh well - since yer up. Do you know about the other colors?"
Savage Taurus: peeks out from under the table, "Is it gone yet?"
Talia.Sunsong: "Which crystals give me more shinies and cream?"
Blue Head: It's awfully bright here...
Blue Head sighs: “Blue is for time; purple is for illusion, yellow is for distance”
Blue Head: “Green is for healing”

Fiesty Lotus looks back at a cowering Savage and hides a smile.
Talia.Sunsong: "I don't understand that. Blue is for time? It's a clock?"
Blue Head: “Red is for transformation and gray for summoning”
Savage Taurus: It’s about time you shut that dang book!
Blue Head: “Now go find another book to bother; I'm sleepy”
Fiesty Lotus: "yer got all that Druid Fit?"
Talia.Sunsong: "This is why Fae don't bother with crystal magic. It's confusing."
Fitheach Eun grabs a quill and scribbles it all down

Fiesty Lotus looks back at the book and sees that it is now firmly closed
Talia.Sunsong: peeks at the book. "Is he squashed in there?"
Fitheach Eun looks at Fiesty: "Well that was illuminating."
Savage Taurus: I hope so! Rorn: sneezes.
Fitheach Eun looks at her notes: "The crystal that Rorn dropped in my potion was white."
Fiesty Lotus nods "that is what I saw

Savage Taurus: peers at the floor where he is hiding and sees a red crystal and quickly picks it up and pockets it
Savage Taurus: mumbles, I don’t know what red means, but they ain’t gettin' their hands on this one

Savage Finds a Red Crystal


Kraken

  Sea Witch Sorceress: "Have you decided to give up your consort to me?" Sorceress: Or do I loose the Kraken? Sea Witch: Sea Witch...
