Subject: Stupid server...

Okay, I was halfway through the report when an unexpected server error destroyed what I had written (looks like something I need to look into later...). That being said, I'm diving right into this.

Our mission was a success - thank you to everyone who participated: Camitzal, Jenet, Goth, Jenni, Arisa, Cf, Jenet, Nearon, Loki. You guys did as good as can be expected.

We gave Morgan the ring and made her re-affirm her oath (that she'd call off the Shadow Beasts once she ahd the ring) and then immediately went after the ring in an attempt to take it back. She pulled out a whole bag of tricks on us: a ring that generates kinetic force, a bear idol that gave her increased strength, a bracelet that creates magical shields and earings that negate magical attacks. And, as I found out first-hand, nails that can lengthen into daggers ripe for impaling people.

Most of us fought Morgan while CF and Arisa tried to set her house on fire, being kept on their toes by Ghost. Jenet fell back and attempted to use some of her own Old Magic to break down the dampening effect of Morgan's demesne (pronounced de-mayn, as in the location where she lives. Some people were confused about that). Morgan was able to take down practically everyone who went after her and Ghost nailed all three of his attackers with blind gunshots (I don't know if that demonstrates his skill or our ineptitude) before Nearon drew her attention away long enough for Loki to sneak up on her, under cover of the Chameleon Cloak, and take her hostage.

I started attending to people's wounds while Morgan seemed disturbed by the news of Lucien's attempt to snag the ring from us back at Cloak's place. For some reason, that revelation was enough to get her to simply hand over the ring. It makes me wonder if I could have saved us all the trouble of fighting if I had simply mentioned that to her in the first place....

Anyways... job well down, everyone. I asked you all to join me in battle against enemies we knew very little about and you all pulled through. Thank you.

Before we left, however, Morgan left us with a riddle that would point us towards Jonas' location:

"He has built a tower in the Dark Place, where the gods gather to do battle. Where the ground runs black with the blood of shadows, you will find him."

After I had a chance to sit down and think about it, the riddle wasn't terribly difficult. She's referring to the Elemental Plain, the traditional location of the Elemental Wars and the location of the Void War - where the ground ran black with the blood of Shadows.

I don't know how long we'll have before he finds out that we're coming, but I want to strike him hard as soon as we can. Everyone, get in some last minute training and restock your equipment - we're going after Jonas.


In related news, Osaru payed us a visit yesterday with some news. It appears the Shadow Beasts really are gone - although I want to keep up patrols for a few nights just to be sure. He was also able to give us long-overdue news on Courtney's death: she apparently died during childbirth some months ago. Ucion is the father, and he is living in solitude with their child. I wish them the best and if anyone wants to send them anything, let me know and I'll contact Osaru to act as courier.
