Later that day...Vyctoria and Mee meet at the docks....a peacful and warm day..unlike so many of this winter..
Mee Salubria: Greetings
Vyctoria Silvercloud: hi Mee........I always love your boots...they are totally cool
Mee Salubria: ty
Vyctoria Silvercloud smiles...as i look at the ocean from the docks......nods to Mee..."all in all....it is a fine day....clear sky....fresh winds....and winter seems to be lessening"
Mee Salubria: aye it has been very nice weather today
Yet, in the distance there is a curious black cloud.. the cloud floats along the shore
Patrice Cournoyer: greetings sisters
Mee Salubria: greeting Patrice
Vyctoria Silvercloud waves.....Greetings, Patrice...Merry Meeting, sis



Vyctoria Silvercloud moves around...noticing a small dark speck down the shore...."what is that? Can you see? Right there.....behind the tree......"
Mee Salubria: that is how the black cloud first appeared last month. Do you think it could be back?
Grond Mocha: the cloud seems to be looking for something
Mee Salubria: that is the cloud from last month. It has a face in it
Vyctoria Silvercloud tries to sort something...but it is too far away......"I guess we could see it closer....Why dont we move to check it?"
Vyctoria Silvercloud: Come on....lets try to see this....now i am curious
Patrice Cournoyer: lets take a closer loo
Grond Mocha: the cloud decends, the cows scatter from the cold....slowly the cloud circles the Amazons
Vyctoria Silvercloud: keep distance...i am not sure of this
Patrice Cournoyer: this is the same cloud sisters
Vyctoria Silvercloud: Did it attack before?
Mee Salubria: be careful it was very cold when it touched us. It would envelope us in it's cold form
Grond Mocha: glowing eyes peer from the cloud
Arwen SpiritWeaver: The Queen senses a distubance of some sort, in the air, and goes to peer at the sky...
Then suddenly, Darcie arrives and joins the small gathering at the village...
Darcie Emerald: how may i help?
Vyctoria Silvercloud shakes my head..Greetings, Darcie
Grond Mocha: the wind disturbs the cloud, it peers at the soruce of it
Vyctoria Silvercloud: Right now...we are not sure
Mee Salubria: Greetings
Vyctoria Silvercloud: This dark cloud showed up......and we dont know what it is
Darcie Emerald: is it the work of the ice princess?
IM: Arwen SpiritWeaver: the Queen thinks to herself, how odd the clouds appear, over the fort, but retreats to her cave for the time being...
Mee Salubria: nods "it is cold like her"
Vyctoria Silvercloud: All is possible. We dont know what to do....we cant kill a cloud!!
Patrice Cournoyer: greetings Alyosha
Alyosha Merlin: Greetings. Sorry to be late
Vyctoria Silvercloud: Be Careful, Darcie
Mee Salubria: Greetings
Grond Mocha: the cloud tries to talk, a voice very distant comes from it
Vyctoria Silvercloud: Greetings, Alyosha
Mee Salubria: maybe a spell to unhide what is hiden?
Vyctoria Silvercloud: Spell? mhm...so it might work. lets try to see if it shows what is intentions are. Steps closer to the cloud slowly and begins to recite a small spell...one of truth and honor...to bound one to show is true intent
Darcie Emerald: oh cloud of mystery. i beseech thee. in the name of wotan the protector. What is it you seek?
Vyctoria Silvercloud: Light..White Light.......can forth all that is hidding. Show us what you want. Speak to Us
Grond Mocha: the cloud peers at the brightness
Grond Mocha: the word "kotan" is heard from a distance
Darcie Emerald: wotan?
Vyctoria Silvercloud hears a small...faint voice...I dont believe it......did any of you hear anything?
Mee Salubria: shakes head "no"
Darcie Emerald: i may have
Vyctoria Silvercloud: What, Darcie? What did you hear?
Grond Mocha: "KROATOAN" a voice says, as from far, far away
Darcie Emerald: something about kotan
IM: Arwen SpiritWeaver: The Queen thinks about the strange Clouds above the Fort, growing more and more agitated...
Darcie Emerald: now kroatoan
Alyosha Merlin: Croatian?
Vyctoria Silvercloud: kroatoan?.....I dont know it.
Darcie Emerald: i hear a groaning as if in pain
Darcie Emerald: tell us cloud. Are you in pain?
Mee Salubria: maybe she has seen it in the Book
Grond Mocha: the cloud peers as if listing to something distant. It moves closer
Grond Mocha: the fog envolpes Vyctoria
Mee Salubria: Vyctoria!
Vyctoria Silvercloud moans softly...as i feel the icy touch......aaahhhhmmmm
Darcie Emerald: back cloud
Vyctoria Silvercloud: No...No....wait!
Darcie Emerald: do not force me to strike you
Vyctoria Silvercloud: I am well...enough...cold....but well.
Grond Mocha sussurra: "KROATOAN"
Mee Salubria: maybe it will tell her something
Patrice Cournoyer: what means that word, Vyctoria?
Vyctoria Silvercloud: I hear it...Kroatoan...again.
Vyctoria Silvercloud: but......I dont know it
Vyctoria Silvercloud: Perhaps......It is its name
Grond Mocha: the cold, fog enveloeps Darcie
Vyctoria Silvercloud: mmmmmm...seems to be searching...looking for someone
Mee Salubria: someone?
Darcie Emerald: *sheaths my sword so the cloud knows i mean it no harm*
Vyctoria Silvercloud: look...it moves from one of us to another
Mee Salubria: *follows Darcie lead and puts away her bow*
Grond Mocha: the cloud floats back fustrated
Vyctoria Silvercloud: See? It goes back and forth among us....but found nothing
Alyosha Merlin: There seemed to be a figure inside
Darcie Emerald: it seeks someone who can understand it
Grond Mocha: the cloud floats back
Grond Mocha: seems to becoking
Vyctoria Silvercloud: DONT MISS IT
Vyctoria Silvercloud: MOVE OUT PEOPLE DONT MISS IT



As the cloud moves......so all the Amazons move with it...following at a safe distance...
Vyctoria Silvercloud: ah gosh...It moved right into my cave!!!!
Patrice Cournoyer: the rat will bite it!
Mee Salubria: should I go in after it?
IM: Arwen SpiritWeaver: The Queen jumps, startled, as the black mist engulfs her for a moment, then disappears...
Grond Mocha: it flows into the cave, and right under the Book
Arwen SpiritWeaver: There, in the corner beneath my Book!
Vyctoria Silvercloud steps closer to the book.....as i notice the writing have changed. "This.....cant be!! this page....is one of the middle....yet i could not read it..until now"
Vyctoria Silvercloud leans over the Book......as i try to see it better
Arwen SpiritWeaver: the QUeen croaks, "Get out of the way, fool, and kill that thing, before it steals my Book!
Vyctoria Silvercloud: This passage.....it speaks of Elpidios...the impassive....Elpidios...he was the keeper of the mack, necklace and the dagger of Acheron
Vyctoria Silvercloud reaches out...touching the book.....feeling it icy cold
Arwen SpiritWeaver: the Qyeen mutters.."Elpidios... that fool...thought he could claim what was rightfuly mine...
Grond Mocha: the book seems to stand, glaring back, and cold
Vyctoria Silvercloud: It says..Elpidios....fled....from Acheron....by sea...he took a ship....A ship...to Lappland...but...he did not make it...A storm cought him...and he was wrecked into the Caost of Gaul...........a temple...was built over a large cave...where he hid them...them.....I guess the necklace...the dagger and the mask
Mee Salubria: wait a large cave?
Vyctoria Silvercloud: all were hidden under a symbol...a sacred symbol
Darcie Emerald: the cave of the monster?
Mee Salubria: but the mask was not in the cave of the monsters?
Vyctoria Silvercloud: mmmmm.....we need to find this symbol....Looks like a X with a small X on one of the legs....We need to find it!!!
Mee Salubria: where do we start?
Vyctoria Silvercloud: In a cave...under some ruins....we might find the symbol
And so they all moved out....quickly to the ruins...searching for the symbol that holds the necklace....but found it nowhere...
Later that day....almost at its end...when all were exhausted and hungry and cold.....Mee of the Villagers found the symbol on a rock by the badgers lair...
