[20:12]	<dkap>	Greetings!
		Sorry for the delay. I got distracted making dinner.
[20:14]		So ... when last we left our intreped heros and heroines ...
[20:15]	<Cagliostro>	I guess we might have a few of those now.
	<Cagliostro>	not sure where they are, though ;)
[20:16]	<arkhonII>	Oops
	<arkhonII>	Here until 10:15 roughly, btw.
[20:17]	<dkap>	Umm ... Maureen was trying to escape the words ... Caelin was dealing with the declaration of Mother as Champion ... and Cagliostro was hip-deep in woofs and vamps.
[20:18]	<Cagliostro>	Cagliostro was apparently taking a break from the woofs and vamps
[20:19]		and the vamps were hip-deep in Serenity shrapnel
		Cagliostro is probably either nearer the woofs or back at the castle
	<arkhonII>	Serenity blew up?
	<arkhonII>	Oh dear.
[20:20]	-->\|	Kintani (~Kintani@c-75-67-240-124.hsd1.nh.comcast.net) has joined #dkap_amber
	<Kintani>	Allo, allo
	* arkhonII	(waves)
[20:21]	<Cagliostro>	Serenity is, at best, pining for the fjords
	<Cagliostro>	And River is trying to get someone to embrace Jayne
	<arkhonII>	Religiously or physically?
[20:22]	<Cagliostro>	and I think only the doc and river have made i tout of the ship
	<Cagliostro>	vampirically
	<dkap>	Vamp-embrace
	<arkhonII>	Got it.
	<dkap>	But, since we don't have Delna tonight ... that might languish a bit.
	<dkap>	On the other hand, we now have the Woof that sparkles in Kintani's eye ... grin
[20:23]	-->\|	Shaitanna (~Shaitanna@c-75-67-240-124.hsd1.nh.comcast.net) has joined #dkap_amber
[20:24]	<Shaitanna>	hi
	* arkhonII	(waves)
	<dkap>	And, we have the redheaded wonder, enmeshed in Chaos Politics.
	<dkap>	Wow, a mostly full house tonight ... cool!
[20:25]	<Shaitanna>	hehehe
	<Kintani>	Wonders never cease
	<dkap>	They never do.
	=-=	Cagliostro is now known as Jean
	<Jean>	Chaos politics... I keep hearing about that, but nothing specific
	<Jean>	at least, nothing I remember
	<dkap>	grin
	=-=	Kintani is now known as Ammon
[20:26]	=-=	Shaitanna is now known as Bebhinn
	<Bebhinn>	pronounced bay-vin
	* Ammon	dusts off the other persona
[20:27]	* arkhonII	snorts.
	<Ammon>	Don't make me get Eric, Reality Destroyer. ;-)
	* arkhonII	(doesn't think he has ever met Ammon in game)
	<Ammon>	I don't think you have either.
[20:28]	* arkhonII	(wonders who is thought to be the reigning reality destroyer in this reality. Could it be Caelin's title has been usurped???)
	<dkap>	Eric, reality destroyer somehow doesn't really hold a candle to Caelin, total-shadow destroyer, again ... grin
	<arkhonII>	Well, that about answers THAT arbitration. :)
	<Ammon>	I think, out of the older crew, Ammon has only met Jean and an aspect of Ilk.
	<dkap>	Indeed.
[20:29]	<Ammon>	Yeah well, nobody has shown Eric that bar yet, so he doesn't have that to aspire to... yet.
	<dkap>	Indeed.
	* arkhonII	LOL
[20:31]	<dkap>	Hrm ... my notes say that Bebhinn was consulting with her new family in Chaos ... does that match with your recollection?
	<Ammon>	That is the last I recall as well
	<Bebhinn>	yup.
[20:32]	<Ammon>	Everyone was in a room, some people were playing cards on the side, mostly trying to be ignored
	<Bebhinn>	we left brett and keith to take care of earth in its new form
	<dkap>	When there was a ... touch of an emergency, because, well ... there was this whole "Shadow going away" thing.
	<Ammon>	Bebhinn was getting Chaos 101
	<Ammon>	We didn't get to the "Shadow going away" part with Ammon and Bebhinn.
[20:33]	<dkap>	Right.
	<Bebhinn>	i was going to say i didn't remember that part either
	<Bebhinn>	i remember being on a ship with mr. i.
[20:34]	<dkap>	Mr I?
	<Bebhinn>	eagleton i mean (dave kern)
	<dkap>	Ahh ... right.
	<Ammon>	You might want to redo the short form of Chaos 101 for Sam, since it's been uite a while
[20:35]	<Bebhinn>	it would be appreciated--that whole having a baby = no long term memory thing
	<dkap>	Right, so ... there you were, on the ship with Mr. E. and you had gotten to Chaos.
		It was his airplane that had somehow developed Gate Technology.
		And he had navigated it to Chaos.
		Where he had met up with his ally Mouseferatu.
[20:36]	<Bebhinn>	yup--i remember orphus doing funky things
	<dkap>	(To whom you were introduced ... he's a white mouse, that tends to stand on his hind legs, and wears a red-lined black cape.
	<Ammon>	Well, Mr. Eagleton is Orpheus's familiar, after all
[20:37]	<dkap>	and had fangs, and has a tendency towards a transylvanian accent.)
[20:38]	<dkap>	And there, you met up with your ... cousin? (you weren't quite sure) Jean.
	<Jean>	http://www.sacredmonkey.net/printsposters/index.html
[20:39]	* Jean	is Legion.
[20:40]	<dkap>	Jean, in turn, introduced you to the Card Game, so you could get the background on what was appropriate for you to know about Chaos.
[20:41]	<Bebhinn>	nods
	<dkap>	The Card Game folks were mostly ignoring you and mostly staying in one shape.
[20:42]	-->\|	meiglan (~chatzilla@72.170.197.76) has joined #dkap_amber
[20:44]	<dkap>	But not entirely.
	<dkap>	The gentleman with his balls spinning over his head, who was introduced to you as Mandor, was slowly speaking to you about the structure and government of Chaos.
[20:46]	<Jean>	(small, steel, mobile)
[20:48]	<dkap>	The balls.
[20:49]	<Jean>	indeed.
	<dkap>	When there seemed to be a bit of an ... emergency, and everyone rushed out of the room, assuring you that they'd be back as soon as possible.
[20:50]	<Bebhinn>	got it
[20:51]	<dkap>	And there you sat, for some time.
	<dkap>	Did you look at their hands of cards?
[20:53]	<Bebhinn>	sorry--diaper change--did i look at the other cards? where they face up or face down?
	<dkap>	They put them face down, but they have now been gone for ... some time. Probably, on your scale hours.
	<dkap>	There is snack food around, but, well, it doesn't stay in any particular place, and occasionally has been seen grazing on each other.
[20:54]	<Bebhinn>	nope--if they are anything like fey i wouldn't risk it. do i have cards?
	<dkap>	And one piece of free-range broccoli was pushed, quite rudely, by the others, into the vat of drink.
	<dkap>	You were not dealt into the game, no.
	<Ammon>	Save the broccoli from the vat.
	<Bebhinn>	pull broc out of
	<Bebhinn>	vat--beat me too it PPPPPPPPTTTTTTTT
[20:55]	<Ammon>	Eat any offending meat-based aggressors
	<dkap>	It squeeks with appreciatation.
	<Ammon>	<-- ia a Vegetable-rights carnivore. ;-)
[20:56]	<dkap>	How can you tell which are made of meat?
	<Ammon>	I'll guess based on wolf-senses, and pray for the best.
[20:58]	<Bebhinn>	would have scoped out the room though
	<Bebhinn>	always good to know where exits are ;)
	<Ammon>	Indeed, give the room a polite once-over eventually, and encourage Mr. Eagleton to drink more
[20:59]	<dkap>	Mr Eagleton left you there.
		And there doesn't appear to be any exits.
		People come and go by walking around corners that aren't there.
	<Bebhinn>	did he leave orpheus?
	<dkap>	Nope.
[21:00]	<Bebhinn>	when greeted do any respond?
	<Ammon>	See if there is an Umbra-analog here
	<dkap>	There doesn't appear to be any umbra-analog and Luna cannot reach you here.
	<Bebhinn>	sad, so pack link won't work
[21:01]	<dkap>	Alas, no.
	<Ammon>	Check the Vera Pantheon-channel, and see if anyone knows what's going on.
[21:02]	<Bebhinn>	greet strangers politely and try to get into too much trouble
	<dkap>	Lots (and lots and lots) of noise on the G-d Channel.
	<dkap>	They all left the room. (The strangers.)
	* arkhonII	(no longer recalls who is even ON the G-d channel)
[21:03]	<dkap>	All the ones clamoring because someone just ripped Shadow away by it's roots.
	<Ammon>	(Isn't the uestion more who isn't on the God Channel?)
	<Ammon>	D'oh!
	<dkap>	(That was the little emergency.)
	<Ammon>	Hey Bebhinn, someone just broke the Multiverse, including our newly fixed Reality.
[21:04]	<Bebhinn>	pull out deck of regular playing cards from jacket pocket and start build card house
	<Bebhinn>	what the F@#!! do you mean by that?
	<dkap>	You find that this place is really conducive to building card houses.
[21:05]	<Bebhinn>	that was directed to ammon btw
	<dkap>	(I figured)
[21:06]	<Bebhinn>	(i'm not used to playing online---it will take a bit--sorry)
	<Ammon>	All of the Gods, etc. I can hear in my head just said "Shadow was ripped up by the roots", and we were told earlier that our Reality was one Shadow among many.
	<dkap>	(S'ok, we all do it.)
	<Ammon>	See if I can get Vera directly, and ask her if she needs me and Bebhinn for anything.
[21:07]	<dkap>	You can't distinguish any of the voices, but none of the ones you hear the loudest sound even vaguely familiar.
	<Ammon>	To Bebhinn: That seems to be the 'little emergency' everyone left for
	<Bebhinn>	To Ammon: what the fuck should we be doing then? not sitting her i'm sure
[21:08]	<Ammon>	Hmmm... Well, what's in our power to do? I'm not well versed in holding together or rebuilding realities.
	<dkap>	One of the potato-like things has fallen over, and put an eye out, and is bleeding on the counter.
	<Bebhinn>	To no one really: AWWWW now that's just weird (pointing)
[21:09]	<Ammon>	Heal the Potato.
	<Ammon>	Hey Bebhinn, do you still worship me as a God?
	<dkap>	How do you heal the potato?
	<Ammon>	Mother's Touch.
	<dkap>	The potato becomes a steaming heap of jullienned fries.
[21:10]	<Bebhinn>	To Ammon: In what dream did i worship you as a god?
	<Ammon>	Well, unexpected, but I like fries.
[21:11]	<Bebhinn>	To Ammon: Oh yeah
		It's the new thing.
		Sure. You want me to sing you a song of prayer
	<Ammon>	To Bebhinn: Yup. I need followers to survive.
	<Bebhinn>	?
	<Bebhinn>	(Bebhinn's big power was singing)
	<Ammon>	That might help. Actually, if you pray for a way to help save people, I might have a Miracle or two in me.
	<dkap>	That was how it was explained to you.
[21:12]	<Bebhinn>	B pulls out all stops and sings a song of prayer of help from her god ammon
	<dkap>	The room trembles with the power of your song, and the broccoli join in.
[21:13]	<dkap>	(They sound a lot like the slugs from "Flushed Away")
	<Bebhinn>	pick up broc so we cansing together
	<Bebhinn>	figure a choir is better than a solo
[21:14]	<Ammon>	I've never seen someone sing in 4 Food Group Harmony before
	<Bebhinn>	the more followers the better
[21:15]	<Bebhinn>	if any other snacks sing, will get them too
	<dkap>	Some of the potatoes are blinking at you, but the are more worried about the fate of their compatriot.
[21:16]	<Bebhinn>	if any mock us--kill them in sacrifice to my god
	<Bebhinn>	if not, leave them be
	<dkap>	One of the raspberries is giving a raspberry ... but it's hard to tell if that is mocking or not.
[21:17]	<Bebhinn>	sacrifice in honor of my god as offering for help
	<Bebhinn>	brb--crying child
	<dkap>	Ammon: you feel quite the power building in you.
		Enough to cause a child to cry ... I mean ...
		grin
[21:18]	<Bebhinn>	back--wiil type slow--child hanging from me
	<Ammon>	(Asher decided to try to climb on the table, and rolled a 1. Well, either that, or Caelin got too close.)
[21:19]	<Ammon>	Ammon reaches into that God-part of himself, and calls forth a Miracle to help his devoted followers in their quest to save those we honored as friends and followers of Ammon.
[21:20]	<dkap>	That's really vague. You have to be _much_ more specific with your miracles.
	<Bebhinn>	keep singing
[21:21]	<Ammon>	Miracle Goals: Get Bebhinn and Ammon to a place where they can save Garou from their Reality that Ammon has ties to (For Targetting sake) and a means to get Bebhinn, himself, and said peoples somewhere safe from the impending catastrophe.
[21:22]	<Ammon>	Focus on Ammon's ability to get places, and Bebhinn's desire to save people.
[21:23]	<dkap>	There is a flash ... and then a shift of scene.
	* arkhonII	(laughs)
	<Bebhinn>	is broc still with us?
	<Ammon>	Hey, keep your Bad Stuff out of my inane plans.
[21:24]	<Bebhinn>	if so, ecourage it to keep singing and keep singing myself
	<dkap>	For a moment, you see yourself above a giant dragon, sitting at a table, having tea with outlandish characters ... then you are falling toward a hand-print some bald-headed coot is putting on the dragon's back.
[21:25]	<dkap>	You fall through the hand-print, back, into your world.
	* arkhonII	(to his knowledge[or his player's knowledge] has never destroyed anything purely by laughing)
	* Ammon	is impressed, not knowing Kintani well enough not to be. ;-0
	<dkap>	(Well ... the winged serpent is at the table, as well as Maximillion and the rest of the crew.)
[21:26]	<Bebhinn>	is my twin, who is not my twin--but really a shadow of me, with us?
	<dkap>	Your twin?
	<dkap>	(I think I missed this.)
[21:27]	<Ammon>	Magic-Bebhinn, who ended up being a Shadow of Bebhinn, but a Mage instead of a Wolf. Last I recall, with Brian.
	<Bebhinn>	remember i had a twin who was a sorcerer and my brother (real brother from amber) said she was not really a twin, but a shadow of me
	<dkap>	Ahh ... right. I had forgotten.
		Better now,
		(Cascade memory.)
		No, your twin is not with you.
		Your twin went to the Mages Guild.
[21:28]	<Bebhinn>	got it
		can i reach her--used to be able to
		?
[21:29]	<dkap>	Not from here.
	<Bebhinn>	got it. where are we? any of ther other wolves here?
	<dkap>	But, you can, now, reach the pack-link.
	<Bebhinn>	try to reach pack over link
[21:30]	<dkap>	There is a pack, not your pack, but a pack.
	<Bebhinn>	really? tell ammon what i just found out
[21:31]	<dkap>	They are the guardian pack, and wonder who you, as strangers, you are.
	<Bebhinn>	send friendly, non-threatening vibe to new pack in greeting
[21:32]	<Ammon>	Noting Bebhinn's Pack commentary, drop onto the Pack Link and off the noisy G-D Channel
	-->\|	Spot (~chatzilla@c-71-232-106-50.hsd1.ma.comcast.net) has joined #dkap_amber
[21:33]	<Spot>	Hi!
		Sorry!
		Computer issues.
	<Ammon>	Give appropriate howl of Greeting as a Garou entering another's Territory with good intentions.
	<Ammon>	Hi Spot.
	<Spot>	Hi!
	<dkap>	Hi Spot!
[21:34]	<dkap>	They respond with concern, and protection.
	<Bebhinn>	hi spot
[21:35]	<Bebhinn>	to ammon: so what do you want to do?
	<dkap>	It's much quieter on the G-d channel here, and the pack channel, there seems to be only one pack.
[21:37]	<dkap>	They seem surprised that there are woofs they don't know.
[21:39]	<Ammon>	Tell them that we came through the Deep Umbra, seeking Garou that needed our help, so we could get them to a place where they would be safe from the coming storm.
[21:40]	<dkap>	They indicate puzzlement that there is a coming storm.
	<Ammon>	To Bebhinn: See if we can help them, of course, it's what you prayed for. ;-)
	<Bebhinn>	to ammon: since i have a history of putting my whole hindquarter, let alone my foot in my mouth-- i will follow your lead
[21:41]	<Ammon>	Tell them that we came from a place where a great upheval of Creation could be seen. One that could endanger all aspects of life.
	<Bebhinn>	to dkap: is the broc still with me and is it still alive?
	<dkap>	Yes, and yes.
	<Bebhinn>	will take good care of ammon's other follower and tell it quietly of his great deeds as a god ;)
[21:43]	<dkap>	It's a whole herd of free-range broccilli.
	<Ammon>	I'm the God of Free-range Broccoli now. Well, beggars can't be choosers. ;-)
	* arkhonII	(snorts)
	* arkhonII	(undomesticated, yes?)
[21:44]	<Ammon>	I hope Vera doesn't have a 'No Broccoli' clause
	<Spot>	(giggles)
	<Bebhinn>	so does that make it more than one follower?
	<dkap>	Of course undomesticated, free-range singing broccoli ...
	<dkap>	It does.
[21:45]	<Ammon>	What do the Broccoli pray for?
	<Bebhinn>	will teach the many of how luna, the great goddess, sent her son to help save those in need
	<dkap>	Pack voice: We have consulted the Great Oracle, there seems to be no Reality Ending situation?
[21:47]	<Ammon>	To Pack: Perhaps here is some place safe from the Storm, but when we sought the Divine Path to go where we were needed, it is here that we came.
[21:49]	<Ammon>	Perhaps we should come before the Oracle, and see if we can understand our Purpose in being brought here.
[21:50]	<Spot>	((who me?))
	<Spot>	((winks))
	<Ammon>	((Careful, it may be. ;-) ))
[21:51]	<dkap>	Pack voice: Descend from on-high, and join us at the Oracle. Follow the Moon Bridge.
	<Spot>	((grin))
	<Ammon>	Do so. "Come my Broccoli Army!"
[21:52]	<Bebhinn>	bring the broc. to ammon: should i put them in my backpack to keep your followrs safe?
	<dkap>	They would probably appreciate that.
	<Ammon>	Good call
[21:53]	<dkap>	There is a strong moon-bridge, stronger and wider than you've ever seen.
[21:54]	<Bebhinn>	i explain to the broc that i putting them away so that they will be safe and rearrange my backpack to fit them. once in, ask them if they are okay? make sure they get air
	<dkap>	They are fine, they need more sunlight than air but, neither at the moment.
[21:55]	<Bebhinn>	to ammon: that's cool
		makes a waving guesture to ammon. should i go first my lord god?
		or should you?
	<Ammon>	To Bebhinn: Indeed. I've never seen a Moon Bridge that big before.
	<dkap>	(Singing takes a lot of photo-synthesizer
[21:56]	<Ammon>	I'll go first. I'm the Strider, people expect us to show up first. ;-)
[21:57]	<Bebhinn>	(makes note to self to have eagleton to make broc carrying case that will take care of all the broc's needs. thinks twice and then tells ammon her plan)
	<arkhonII>	(Dkap, that was a nonsequitur about good enough for the quote board)
	<Bebhinn>	follow ammon
[21:58]	<dkap>	Down the moon-bridge you go. At the base of it is a collection of statues. Very ... familiar looking statues.
	<Ammon>	Hydroponic Backpack/Cathedral?
	<Ammon>	Examine the Statuary
	<Bebhinn>	yup. your followers should be kept in a paradise state
		keep 'em happy and keep 'em loyal
[21:59]		to dkap: why do they look familiar
		?
	<dkap>	Well ... the ones of you are very flattering, and those of the rest of the pack are ... impressive as well.
	<Bebhinn>	me?
	<dkap>	They really got you all in the best light possible.
[22:00]	<Bebhinn>	to ammon: holy shit!
	<dkap>	Yes, all of you, from the original pack that stopped Adam.
	<Bebhinn>	to ammon: maybe you have more followers than you know
[22:01]	<dkap>	I mean, even Eagleton doesn't look too mad.
	<Bebhinn>	pat jimmy's (keith's) on the cheek
	<dkap>	The Get is quite fierce.
[22:02]	<Ammon>	Is the Ammon Statue winged or sans-wings?
	<Bebhinn>	(hehehe--i know, i was his bar buddy) to ammon: got a camera? eagleton should see this.
	<Ammon>	Actually, I do. ;-)
	<Ammon>	takes pictures
[22:03]	<dkap>	Sans wings.
	<Bebhinn>	to dkap: are any of the vamps there? or just wolves and mages?
	<dkap>	Little strider woof.
	<Ammon>	Un-manifest the wings then
[22:05]	<Ammon>	Once the wings are gone and the pictures are taken, continue down the path.
[22:06]	<Bebhinn>	(jimmy and bebhinn once went bar hopping and jimmy threw a fight to a geek--major geek--human so the guy would look good in front of his hen-pecking wife. bebhinn composed a humerous song called the battle of harold. she is quietly humming it to herself) follows ammon
[22:07]	<dkap>	The only vamp is Shade.
[22:08]	<dkap>	That's at the end of the path. That's apparently where the oracle is.
	<arkhonII>	Bailing time(or time to get my make-up on for tonight's performance). Night folks!
	<--\|	arkhonII has left #dkap_amber
	<Bebhinn>	night
[22:09]	<Bebhinn>	make appropriate respectful gestures and still follows ammon's lead--no need to fuck things up this early in the game----heheheheh
[22:10]	<Ammon>	Lead on.
	<dkap>	The others have not arrived yet, apparently. But this is the end of the moon-bridge.
[22:11]	<Ammon>	Take a good look at the Shade statue.
	<dkap>	Are you going to seat yourselves by the statues, or wait a respectful distance off?
[22:12]	<Ammon>	Any doors, openings, etc. near the statues/
	<dkap>	There are openings all the way around the center dias, that the statues are upon.
	<dkap>	Archways leading out to the grassy knoll.
[22:13]	<Bebhinn>	sniff to see if i can smell anyone hiding out of plain sight
	<Ammon>	Prolly rude to invite ourselves in. Wait at the bridge end, where we'd likely be expected to stop
[22:14]	<Bebhinn>	wait with ammon--hey he's the god and all. besides if you're going "rag" on a god you really want to wait for the perfect moment---hehehe
[22:15]	<dkap>	There are old, old smells, of wolfs, long gone.
	<Bebhinn>	to dkap: when we reset the world, did we save all of ammon's kids from the zoo?
[22:16]	<dkap>	When you reset the world, Ammon's kids were never born, never in a zoo.
[22:17]	<Bebhinn>	to dkap--didn't know if we pulled them out the way we did jimmy and brett's wolf
	<dkap>	No.
[22:18]	<Bebhinn>	to ammon: we left jimmy and brett's wolf (can't remember his name) here. they were going to be the guardians. can you feel them?
	<dkap>	You were only able to save K. and J.
[22:19]	<Ammon>	See if I can feel out Jimmy or Kioku.
	<dkap>	They only are here, in the statues of themselves.
[22:20]	<Ammon>	Relay that to Bebhinn
	<Bebhinn>	WHat the fuck does that mean?
	<Ammon>	Is there "Essence of Ammon" in the Ammon statue?
[22:21]	<Ammon>	(( Brett says 'Hi David' ))
	<dkap>	grin "Hi Brett!"
	<dkap>	Nope. Just the carved lines, wrot from memories shared.
	<Ammon>	To Bebhinn: I can feel something of the essence of Jimmy and Kioku, but only in the Statues. Perhaps their Fetishes of some kind?
[22:22]	<Ammon>	I don't feel me in the Ammon Statue, just ties of memory.
[22:23]	<Bebhinn>	They can't be dead, can they? We would have felt it. Right? The magic hookey-pookey ritual kabboob thing we did was supposed to keep us in touch always.
	<dkap>	A wolfish man walks into the Temple of the Oracle.
	<Bebhinn>	We should have known if they were in serious danger, let alone dead?
	<Bebhinn>	RIght?
	<Ammon>	Really depends on how this "Shadow" thing works
	<Ammon>	Look over the wolfish man
[22:24]	<Bebhinn>	b looks worriedly at teh statues
	<Bebhinn>	the even
[22:25]	<Ammon>	To Bebhinn over the personal channel of the Pack Link: For all we know, it's been ages untold for this Reality, if this even is our origin Reality.
[22:26]	<dkap>	He looks at the end of the moon bridge, but, apparently doesn't see you on it.
[22:27]	<Bebhinn>	Mother-fucking-shit. Just when I start understanding the rules, the MOTHER has to knock me on my ASS again. Does Luna really have to take the ragabash thing seriously? (over the pack-link)
[22:28]	<dkap>	Pack voice: We've not had a ragabash in generations.
[22:29]	<Bebhinn>	rash of swears in irish gaelic flows over the pack-link
	<Ammon>	Steps off the bridge, motioning for Bebhinn to follow. Over Link: Hush, we should figure out if this place is safe, if it's 'our Reality' and if it is safe, if we can make it a sanctuary for others.
[22:30]	<dkap>	Which link? The Pack-Link that they seem to be responding on, as well?
	<Bebhinn>	(FYI--i got about 10--15 minutes top and i have to sign of for bathtime). Over pack-link. No shit? Opps.
	<Bebhinn>	Instinctively our link, not a general one.
	<Ammon>	To general Pack Link: Bebhinn hasn't had a lot of control of her tongue over the link in her entire life
[22:31]	<Ammon>	(( I could see the swearing spilling over to the general pack link ))
	<dkap>	They seem to be responding on _your_ link, _your_ pack link, in case that wasn't clear from the beginning.
	<Bebhinn>	Ragabashes are not S-U-P-P-O-S-E-D to have control over our tongues. How can they long out when we stick our head out of pick-up truck windows?
[22:32]	<Bebhinn>	not long out--hang out ---typo
	<Ammon>	Hmmm... Air-flow generates friction, pulls your tongue longer, and makes you swear more?
[22:33]	<Ammon>	I'll have to ask Eagleton about that
	<Bebhinn>	bite me
	<Bebhinn>	like you've never had a brain stall ammon
[22:34]	<Ammon>	I never said I didn't, but you've taught me to jump fast, to rack up popints before I do something 'noteworthy' again.
[22:35]	<Ammon>	points, even. ;-)
[22:36]	<Bebhinn>	thank you for the lesson, oh my lord god, waggle-butt
	<dkap>	Wolfish man (out loud): You must be pack, because you are talking with our pack-link. But I don't think we know you?
	<Bebhinn>	what would i do without he who swishes his tush on the long moonlit path?
	<dkap>	Wolfish man: We are the guardians.
	<Ammon>	So speakith the 'Royal Pain in the Ass'
[22:37]	<Bebhinn>	that's FUCKING Royal Pain in the Ass--i was upgraded. remember?
	<Ammon>	Out loud: I am Ammon Sahure, known as Ankhanpwre of the Silent Striders.
	<dkap>	Wolfish man: Were you named for him?
	<Bebhinn>	out-loud b mummbles: opps
[22:38]	<dkap>	Seeming to indicate the statue ...
	<Ammon>	No. I am him.
	<Bebhinn>	Nah. I think that is him
	<Bebhinn>	B bites her lips and stops mummbling
	<Ammon>	Time seems to move strangely in the Deep Umbra. (He says, while looking at the statues)
[22:39]	<dkap>	Wolfish man: Then, your companions would be Bebhinn, and Mr. Eagleton? You were ... fortold.
	<dkap>	That you would come again, at the end of days.
	<Bebhinn>	Outloud: No shit
[22:40]		Wait
		What do you mean 'end of days'?
	<Ammon>	Eagleton is out, helping to hold back the Storm as he may.
	<dkap>	Wolfish man: When we might lay down our burden, and let all run it's natural course.
[22:41]	<dkap>	Wolfish man: We are the last.
	<Bebhinn>	A little more specific and less cryptic please?
	<Bebhinn>	I so no good with the cryptic
[22:42]	* Ammon	sighs
	<dkap>	Wolfish man: All living beings, beside us, have translated to the illesium fields, we stayed behind, until the time, fortold.
	<Bebhinn>	No disrespect. I just no good with the cryptic
	<Bebhinn>	to ammon: you're up.
	<dkap>	Wolfish man: When we, too might lay our bodies down, and join our loved ones, in eternity, in bliss, in peace.
[22:43]	<Bebhinn>	whispers to self: i just so no good with the cryptic
	<Ammon>	We came here, seeking those we could save, from the collapse of Reality.
	<dkap>	Wolfish man: The serpent, the spider and the Wilde have all been in balance for generations. Harmony reigns.
	<Bebhinn>	wanders over to jimmy's statue. begins to sadly hum the battle of harold
[22:44]	<Ammon>	Pop wings, crank up the God Powers, and feel for the local Afterlife.
	<dkap>	There are many beatific beings in the Afterlife, happily enjoying their blissful place.
	<Ammon>	Try to feel for how stable this place is
	<Jean>	((from order, balance, and creation to alcohol, the moon, and weird science. The new world of darkness. ;) ))
[22:45]	<dkap>	They have been in the Aferlife so long, their edges have all blurred into one and other.
	<Spot>	((and steampunk))
	<Ammon>	Out loud: The Paradice you seek may be in danger now.
[22:46]	<Ammon>	The storm that comes threatens all Worlds, not just Gaia
[22:47]	<Bebhinn>	alas i must go and do bath/teeth brushing/bedtime duty. b will hang out in backround, throw out appropriate wise ass comments and backup ammon in any fight that may arise--all while taking gentle care of the broc followers. can't lose the flock when you just got 'em ;)
	<Ammon>	Even Paradise may not be safe
	<Bebhinn>	see you all next week!
	<Ammon>	Bye Wife (Not that I'm not sitting in the same room.)
	<Bebhinn>	good night. need anything from me dkap before i log out
	<Bebhinn>	?
[22:48]	<dkap>	Wolfish man: If it threatens Gaia, you will have to find other warriors to fight it, those of us who are left, are but caretakers. Keeping the oracle company, polishing the statues, visiting the places of power in the world to make sure they are still, all in tune, all in accord.
	<dkap>	Nope, Brush/wash well!
	<Bebhinn>	thanks
	<Bebhinn>	night
	<--\|	Bebhinn has left #dkap_amber
	<Ammon>	Caretakers may be the best defense. We may need to move Gaia somewhere in Creation that is more stable
[22:49]	<dkap>	Wolfish man: It is the end of days. Perhaps, Gaia herself wishes to join the all in the Afterlife.
[22:50]	<Ammon>	I may need to move the Afterlife as well.
	<dkap>	Wolfish man: Perhaps, you should consult the Oracle?
[22:52]	<Ammon>	Perhaps we all should. Are we waiting for any of the others/
	<dkap>	Wolfish man: They will learn from me, I was closest.
	<Ammon>	Very well, lead on.
[22:53]	<dkap>	The Wolfish man walks around, between the statues to a stairwell that, were they not statues, they would have been guarding.
		Down the stairwell, to a large glowing blue stone.
[22:54]		Sitting on top of the stone is a corn snake, a wolf-spider, and a moss-covered rock.
		The Wolfish man seems surprised that there is anything on top of the blue stone.
[22:55]		Bebhinn: <Some off-colour comment in complete surprise>
[22:56]	<Ammon>	Hush Bebhinn, bow respectfully to the Aspects on the stone
	<dkap>	The spider and the snake start pushing the moss-covered rock toward you.
	<Ammon>	Step closer
[22:57]	<Ammon>	Crank up Spirit Speech and pay attention to the G-d Channel as well.
[22:58]	<dkap>	The snake flings the spider onto you, who, spinning a web, secures it to you, and then, climbs back and forth, along the line, thickening it, and anchoring it to the rock.
	<dkap>	On the G-d channel "Took you long enough."
	<Ammon>	stand very still, look respectful
[22:59]	<dkap>	Once the web is thick enough, the snake wraps a coil or two around the rock, and then wraps itself around the web-line. It's weight pulls the moss-covered rock off, so it swings against you, leaving all three on your body.
	<Ammon>	On the G-d Channel: Sorry, was keeping a low profile until I was sure where I was.
[23:00]	<Ammon>	Hold out any appendiges that make securing the three easier or more comfortable
	<dkap>	With my three elements, take them safe with you, and the Afterlife will follow.

[23:01]	<dkap>	G-d channel: They are good kids. My time is done. It's only by a gift from an old friend that I remained this long.
[23:02]	<Ammon>	G-d Channel: I'll take them all somewhere safe.
[23:03]	<dkap>	G-d Channel: Thank you. Travel well, and keep Her safe, worship Her always.
	<Ammon>	Out Loud: I will carry the Afterlife on the journey needed to protect the Souls in Paradise.
	<dkap>	G-d Channel: My time is done and past.
	<Ammon>	G-d Channel: Rest well
	<dkap>	G-d Channel: Make sure they end up a good scale.
[23:04]	<Ammon>	G-d Channel: I will
	<dkap>	A voice in the room: "Yes, my children, you may finally rest. Let your bodies go, and join your loved ones in the illesium fields.
[23:05]		The Wolfish Man repeats the Oracles words over the Pack Link.
[23:06]		There are sighs on the Pack Link, and the Wolfish man lets his body down, on the ground, sighs, and translates to being in the Aferlife.
		Afterlife, even.
[23:07]	<Ammon>	Say the appropriate prayers to Mother Luna over the link, ensuring them all a safe and quick transition, as is my Duty.
	<dkap>	They, of course, work.
[23:08]	<dkap>	You have the feeling you here are the last. living things, anywhere in this sphere.
	<Ammon>	Out loud to Bebhinn: Okay, now we just have to make it back to that big Dragon.
[23:09]	<dkap>	The blue glow is fading from the rock. It's getting cold.
[23:10]	<Ammon>	Doublecheck the statues
	<dkap>	They are upstairs, if you recall.
	<Spot>	((okys bedtime for me night!)
	<--\|	Spot has left #dkap_amber
	<Ammon>	After that, if they're empty, try to shift all the living personnel and the 3 items back to that Dragon we saw just before we fell in the Handprint
[23:11]	<Ammon>	Well, head up to check them, then head out if they're empty.
	<dkap>	You head upstairs, there is no sun, no moon, no stars.
		The grass is ash, the trees are gone.
		The moon bridge is no more.
[23:12]		There is only a crackling reddish glow, as if ... one of Mr. Eagleton's Gates.
[23:13]		It _is_ a jump-gate, open, and waiting for you.
[23:14]		(Apparently Bebhinn's prayers were answered, along with the Broccoli.
	<Ammon>	Have Bebhinn head over by the gate while Ammon quickly sends a feeler over the Jimmy and Kioku statues
	<dkap>	They are empty now.
	<Ammon>	Go through the gate
[23:15]	<dkap>	You are in a well-appointed, Mr. Eagleton lab.
	<dkap>	And I think I will hang the game here.
	\|<--	Maureen has left irc.gamesurge.net (Quit: used jmIrc)
[23:16]	<dkap>	Any final actions?
[23:17]	<dkap>	Ahh ... one final impression, the bald-headed individual, who was placing the handprints, seemed to be smiling at you, as you went through the jump-gate.
