Let's get started!! :D:

A slow breeze passes through the Land of Marathon and Halcyon. The grass gently bows to the soft, unassuming current, as the world of infinite time and potential gently breathes, uncaring of territory.

Hundreds of thousands of miles separate the two kingdoms that dominate the tiny fraction of landscape that sentient life has claimed.

To the West lies Alternia's indomitable, proud, industrious lands. The Kingdom, ruled with an iron fist and a cruel law is a proving ground for Trolls, all eager to make it in their world of prejudice, strength, and war. Their sheer power is rooted far into the earth, their hives rising like skyscrapers inside their powerful, hooded, domed castle. To seek entry is to challenge fate, and to truly decide if you are STRONG enough to survive in a world where everyone wants to be.

Drifters travel the roads between the East and West, Expatriots (or Beforans, as humans call them), humans, and lesser folk of more tertiary species. Pink furred creatures who enjoy riddles and puzzles. Reptilian brutes who enjoy shiny things. Cruel, long horned, paint faced highwaymen. Lowbloods fleeing Alternia. Human gypsies who dance and trade favors and gifts. These folk share the varied paths and roads. Some even form villages, planting crops and fighting the wild for survival.

To the far East, on the shore of the Great Freshwater Sea, gently drifts the floating country of Ningen. Humans, with a belief in hope, endurance, and idol, free love, have taken to the waters and skies, populating seafaring castles and boats, and taking refuge in floating ships and great, drifting islands. Their castles, while modest in appearace, litter the skyline and the seaside. Stained glass windows of every color reflect the light of the morning sun.

On one such floating island, a fairly small one situated near the Queen's castle, a young man sleeps.

The Page of Blood, Jomm Kyova, servant to the Queen, lies in bed, an easy smile on his face as he rests in his small, floating cottage. He snores a bit, but his black cat, Bee, resting in a sunny spot by the window, doesn't seem to mind.

The cat awakens, and strolls across the floor, jumping onto Jomm's bed and lightly pawing at his face. Jomm rolls over, cramming his face into his pillow, mumbling in his sleep.

His days will soon get much more interesting, but for now, he's being mercifully allowed a lazy morning in bed.

With that, we begin our tale.

In this large world, with two so very different cultures ruling over it, on a long, lonely road, lies a young Troll. Dispite the olive coloured symbol on the back of his clothes, the blood covering his body clearly shouts out to anyone that sees him that he is of that caste thought to be extinct long ago; this young Troll, beaten within an inch of his life and left to die, is a lime blood, and his chances of surviving are very low. Even now he's barely breathing, and he lost consciousness long before this moment, close to the border of human territory.

Across that border, living close to the young Page, is a Witch. Unlike the Page she is wide awake, and has been for a while now, searching through her books for a certain ritual. This Witch of Void, like the Page of Blood, serves the queen, and even now if searching for something that will help her ferret out the secrets of her counterpart, the Troll queen.

The breeze, Carying on its way finds itself to a few other interesting characters, the first of them high above the world.

An indigo blood sporting her sparring gear. A black tank top, baggier sweat pants, and wrappings on her hands and feet. The breeze was a welcome way to cool off from sparring with her lusus. How is she within the sky you may ask. Well. She's always been here, and she always will be. Humans can push and shove, but with a Legacy of being the decendant of the semi lengendary ASSASSIN, you don't have much to worry about.

You are known for being a real 'heartstopper', not in the fact that you are very pretty, but in the fact that you are known for cutting off the blood link to the heart. They call you a 'Witch of Blood' becuase of this fact.

Currently, she are standing on your window, one of many throughout her hive leading to the clouds. Of course, she rarely leave your hive becuase of this, but sherarely mind. The breeze swirls through her hive, then out another window, guiding us to yet another character.

-

The wind brings us to a thick jungle beside a mountain. Rushing through the trees and leaves to bring us to a troll sitting beside a small pond. Upon feeling the breeze she smiles, lifting her head. This means pollination will occur soon, and she can get back to work on various plant hybrids. She is the lowest of them all on the hemospectrum, a burgandy blood.

She however doesn't mind. She takes down the mushroom mutants daily, and often eats them. She invites challenge if someone wishes to fight her. The various plant poisions, trees, and the power to perhaps rip the skin from someone is a good enough weapon for her. She has since been nicknamed 'Dooms Monk'. She likes the nickname however.

While there are plenty of other people to introduce, lets just allow the breeze to carry on its marry way, shall we.

Introduction:

And even further away from the Page, in a secluded farm- on the surface, no doubt; laid another human; the human was very close to the landscape of Alternia- the human's name was Alan Lukbar, this particular human aspired to be a member of the queen's court, perhaps even a body-guard of sorts; but alas- he was a mere peasant.
The wind flew through the windows- awaking the Ace of Light; he noticed the faint smell of death, many animals died near his farm- t'was not uncommon for certain animals to kill for mere sport in his parts he did not like this, but hey- what could the lowly farmer-boy do? He was not a member of a high council, nor was he a member of an army.
The breeze flew through the valley once more, through a farm that had seen better days, through a forest of thick mist, and eventually passing a cave- leaving the Ace's area...

The sun, sparkling now in a small stream running through a quaint little garden, had awoken a Knight not too long before. He now stood there, tending to his plants, behind his small cottage, which he shared with his father. This Knight, the Knight of Heart, seemed perfectly happy with what room he was given. There was plenty of room for cooking, washing, gardening, and simply sitting around, and that was all he needed in the home. It sat on a little floating island of its own, on the outskirts of a human city, though it wasn't hard at all to just climb down and visit the shops. He normally did so, venturing off simply to avoid his father.
The man wasn't the worst, but Otis often felt the need to hide things from him. It was enough knowing that his father was disappointed in his apparent lack of, well, 'manliness', but he knew from the man's rude outbursts that it wouldn't be all he would loathe. So, now, the Knight stood, placing some collected vegetables in a basket. He headed inside, putting what they needed in a separate basket, and sighed.
"We're out of... eggs." he called, knowing his father probably wouldn't hear him. "And I need to sell some extra produce. I'll probably be back to make something for lunch."
With that, he grabbed a small bag of coins, shoving it in his pocket, and set out, climbing off of the little floating island.

~~~~~

Now, the sun shone in the light brown hair of a young girl as she skipped down a street. This girl, this Maid only had one thing on her mind. She moved quickly but lightly as she made her way across the city, her eyes only darting around every so often. Soon, she was at the door of a plain-looking house, knowing her friend, still sleeping, was inside.
The Maid of Light knocked eight times, in two groups of four, each knock lasting the same amount of time, each having the same amount of energy put into them. A moment passed, and she decided it didn't feel right. So, she knocked again, in the exact same manner. Much better.

The Seer stuck his head out a second floor window, staring down at her. Iris only grinned, and he slipped back inside.
"I'll be right out..." the Seer of Hope called.
It took a minute, but the door swung open, a bedraggled and half-asleep Abel staring at her.
"You'd better keep up this time, or we're gonna be late." she frowned, taking his arm and leading him out to the street. She set the pace; not too quick, so they weren't early, but not too slow, so they wouldn't be late. Yes, that was good. They would intercept him if the two kept at this pace. She was good at guessing, as her luck seemed to be never-ending.

How delicate the floating pieces of land seem as they dwindle in the sky, away from what seems like a harsh world bellow. Drift amongst of what looks like a clear day. Clouds that apparent from all angles from when ever you stand on the floating land chunks, shallows and surpasses one another quiet calmly upon looking in delight or pure curiosity on what most would call home.

Life is somewhat quiet calm up here as one or two local farmers would've said. Whiles other human beings alike, become too skeptic in pressing enthusiasm, engage in activism against the queen, to venture out at the world bellow.

Most would not dare too do so, but their decisions were their own. They knew rightfully that when agreed too. There was no turning back, even for when they thought with the slightest they were going to dream in coming home. ...But no one knows if anyone had come back from the world bellow. So its hard to tell.

However, I girl that saw the last of the men making their way down on the world. Turns her head to face towards trees waving in the gentle breeze, calls out with a stick in her hand. "Fluffy!" She yells starting to walk across the lush grass all around, gripping on the trees trunks as she walks by. A few seconds went by till two happy barks were heard. She turns her head to see a small yorkie breed dog running out from behind some birchwood trees, with a small twig in its mouth.

The girl crouches down with the stick in her hand still, to put out her stretched fingers out towards Fluffy's general direction, whiles Fluffly dashed over towards the girl and wagged its tail in happyness. Fluffly then on purpose bumps into the girl,- [being 6 inches tall] -Rubbs itself against the girl as the yet nameless girl processed by placing her hands on the dog, scratching Fluffly's back. "Whose a good girl! Whose a good girl! You want to know what Jill's got for you?! Do you?!" The girl, now known as Jill. Splerts out happily at Fluffly. Stands up from after Fluffly's happy lickings, starts to walk before jogging over towards one part of the floating lands edges. Seeing a linen bag near a small white looking teepee tent. Racing Fluffly towards it.

Fluffly won ofcourse, sitting down by the tent awaiting its master. Jill gets there after Fluffly, smiling down at her as Jill kneels to open the bag, getting Fluffly's attention by the tasty smell. It was meat. Not any old meat. Steak!

Jill watches Fluffly approaches slowly with uncertainty. Takes a piece out with her hand to show it at Fluffly. Fluffly was uncertain considering Jill was what Fluflly sees the Alpha, and herself Omega. She watches whiles waiting. Jill tosses the meat in front of Fluflly, knowing by now on Fluflly end- that the gesture Jill just did meant have it. So what did Fluflly do? She starts tucking into it!

Jill watches, before chuckling there on the spot. Sits down to turn her head to glance at some stone walls behind her back. Seeming quite far, but not that far away. Good thing too. Not like anyone is gonna go running off one day.

Jill turns her head slowly to glance out over the edge of the world, looking down slightly at the bottoming clouds, whiles some at their level- drifting calmly. Perhaps it true what most say is peaceful to live up here.

The ocean. Beautiful, as the light glistens off of its surface. Under the beautiful, shining surface, are where some highbloods prefer to dwell. At the ocean's edge, a mansion-like structure. A hive, specifically.  In this hive, dwells a troll with quite the personality complex. A troll with no desire, whatsoever to be like the other highbloods. This troll is a friendlt, outgoing, and emotional troll. He is always there for the people that need him. The only things that mark him as a highblood are his fins, and his hive. He keeps the fancy hive, because, hey, why not?

But this troll is currently out. He dwells in the forest currently, trying to do a bit of exploring. After all, he may even make a new friend out of it all. But in the case he has murder attempted upon him, he wields his bow. But he is not easy to trick. He can actually trick you himself. Hes a bit cunning, using yoir ideas against you. The Thief, some people refer to him as. A "thief of mind." 

The Thief whistles a tune as h roams the forests.

The Maid and Seer continued along the street for some time, Iris stopping when she caught sight of who they were looking for.
"There he is!"

A whistle caught Otis' attention, and he paused, glancing over at the two approaching people, then at the bridge he was about to cross.
"Iris. On my way to the market, you caught me just in time."
She grinned, peering down at the basket. "What d'you have today, Otis?"
"Turnips and potatoes. I'd say maybe ten of each." he shrugged, glancing down at the vegetables.
The young girl reached into the basket she had at her side, digging out a small coin purse. "I'll take... two turnips, and two potatoes, please!"
He nodded, pulling out the cleanest ones he could find and handing them to her. "One gold."
She paused, pulling out a single gold coin, before eying it. "How about, instead of ten silver, I give you twenty-two? Much nicer number. Two twos."
He frowned as she began digging through the purse, pulling out several silver coins. "You aren't paying extra again."
"No, no. I insist! Either that, or I'm not buying!" the Maid glanced up at him briefly.
Otis paused, before shrugging, exchanging a glance with the other male. "Fine."
Iris frowned, straightening up. "I like your produce, I'm buying!" she thrust the handful of silver coins towards him and he nodded, taking them and pouring them into the small bag of coins he had.
"I have money to spare." she nodded, tucking the coin purse back into the basket. "It's not like paying an extra twelve silver is going to put us under!"

Lets return to the burgandy blood shall we?

Her hair curled around itself in knots upon knots, but Selia will almost always brush out the tangles. But it'll just curl again. A few flowers also dot the hair. Wether aciddental, or purposeful, they looked nice enough. "Selia! Do you know if the flowers spread their pollen yet? It's been nearly a week!" She stands, walking away from the new breed of lilies she was creating. She had been working on a project for a long time now, vines that would act as secondary veins and arteries for injuries. But the DNA hex would never combine right if she tried. She finally found a way, but it required lots of insects and the winds breeze.

The vines were growing just on the mountain side, just over her 'greencave' where she cultivates night flowers and mosses. The vines would need the rocks minerals to try and surpport the iron in blood, and they needed to be spacious as blood is much thicker than water. The burgandy blood gently cups a vine in her hand, looking over it. It was turning a nice purple color, but she could tell they were not going to support blood. Only water, but even then this was farther than the other batches made. "Better, but it can still be improved. . ."

- - - -

The indigo blood was now sitting on her windowstill, one foot dangling into the open air of the sky. To most people, the air pressure would cause them to have severe headaches. To her, it was just enough to keep them away. Any higher and it got difficult to breathe, any lower and her ears pulsed and her head pounded. Her 'mother', or 'father', she couldn't tell, was Quial. And currently she was sleeping within her room. She had a few good stabs from the spar, but she regerates very quickly.

The indigo blood loves to look at the ground. And right now, she was just over. . . A city. Her hive could barely be seen, as it was white just like the clouds around her. She takes a pair of binoculars, holding them up to her eyes. Zooming in she could see various people going about their lives, some shops with people shopping within them. Life really. She places the binoculars back down, leaning against her window again.

The Witch gives a shout of victory, slipping a bookmark between the pages of the time. She's finally found it, the ritual that, if performed correctly, would allow her to glean at least some of the secrets of the Troll queen, provided she wasn't using similar magic to obscure them. She grabs her satchel, filled with the tools and implements of her craft, makes sure she has her wand, then leaves her cottage, running to that owned by the Page and hammering on the door. "Jomm! I've found it! I found the ritual!"

The Ace of Light would always wake up late- however, today was an important day for him; for it was his harvest day. In preparation for this day he had made a small map- since it was morning, he thought that he should at least look at it for future reference.

-- The Map --:

Hm- it was crudely drawn, but Alan didn't particularly care about that; t'was his own map, you see. Alan opened his door and began to walk down the long path- it seemed to be a rather happy day today, unlike yesterday; it was raining yesterday- although... He did notice that the rain only seemed to extend to his area; 'the planet must just want to spite me.' That is what he thought at least. Eventually he noticed a trail of purple near his crops. You see, Alan grew pumpkins and he wasn't very happy about- ...Wait? ...What pumpkins? There are no pumpkins in Alan's field, Alan grows wheat... What?

Stunted by this confusion- Alan stared at the purple stain, it seemed to lead closer into the wheat, he noticed that the stain had dried into his crops... Eventually he reached the source; a purple blooded thief, Alan wondered for a moment why a purple-blood would be stealing from his farm; hmph... He didn't care that much, but there was a bow there, but that's about I- OOH! There were some arrows, actually! Alan quickly took the weapons off the corpse, if he were to run into any other poachers now, he'd be ready!

Jomm finally awakes, sitting up in his bed. He rolls onto the floor, and stretches, still in his underwear and a t-shirt. That wouldn't do for the outside world! The seventeen year old youth goes to his drawers, and draws his favorite outfit with a few yanks. The clothing flutters onto the bed, and he goes into his bathroom. With a rough splashing of water, he cleans himself up, and puts on some oils and deodorants for his hair and skin. If the Queen called on him, he needed his scent to be beyond reproach.

The young man is a very practical type of person with daily chores, almost to the point of heavy-handedness. His room shows it! Despite its relatively clean nature, there are cracks on the walls and and dents in the floor from trying to muscle around brooms and furniture. Thankfully, the Queen herself had appointed her maid to the task of cleaning his house for him two days out of the week. Today wasn't one of those days, thankfully. The Page actually disliked the woman, and tried to keep his house clean without her, in the hopes that the Queen would finally stop sending the woman.

Jomm dresses, pulling on a sleeveless, turtlenecked shirt, his jeans, a belt, his multipurpose work boots, and his brown jeep cap. After yanking on his fingerless gloves last, and starts down the stairs for the kitchen.

"Jomm! I've found it! I found the ritual!"

BANG BANG BANG.

A pounding on his door, and a shout to him startle the Page!! His feet cross, and he tumbles down the short flight of stairs. Crying out a few times in pain as his body thuds against each stair.

His cat meows something the sounds oddly human. "Mew meeeeew mow."

I warned you about those stairs, boy. The cat leered at him, looking almost exhasporated. Jomm groans, clutching his head. "

Oooooouch...Dammit thathurts." Jomm hops up. Despite his complaints, he's none the worse for wear! His natural toughness won out over gravity yet again. He pats his arm, illustrating his natural layer of muscle, then continues through the kitchen, and to the door. Jomm opens it, and looks at his friend, the Witch of Void, Skye Dawson.

"Hey, Skyebro. C'mon inside." Jomm holds the door open to his humble, well lit, earth-toned abode, smiling.

"Hey Jomm." Skye is almost bouncing with excitement as she walks in. Hell, she's tempted to do a little dance in celebration. "I finally found the ritual the queen asked me to look for. It wasn't even in any of the books I had, I had to borrow a bunch of my sisters." She turns to face him. "But I'm missing a very important component."

Jomm, unsure what Skye is happy about, leads her to the kitchen. He grins a bit at her clear excitement, and pours her a glass of sweetmilk, a simple, high energy drink consisting of milk and honey, purchased from a farmer and a beekeeper respectively. He pours a bowl of water for his cat on the floor. Bee laps up his small drink, and scampers out the door to hunt for the field mice that lurked on Jomm's floating island.

As he roots through his chillbox, he realizes he was out of fish. Strange. He'd just been fishing yesterday. The answer, although unknown to him, is simple. Bee had figured out how to open the cold storage unit, and had snatched the fish while Jomm was unaware. Unlike his giving owner, Bee was a bit of a sneaky little punk. The skeleton of the fish was outside, buried in the tall grass. The Duplicitous Bee had stricken again!!

Jomm sets the glass of milk on the table, and pulls out Skye's chair for her, and sits down in his own. "Alright. Explain it like I'm a dumbass. What's theritual again, and whatdo you need to complete it, and what'sit do?"

Skye sits in the chair and sips the sweetmilk. Mmm, she loves it. "Okay, you remember how the queen wanted to know whether the Troll queen planned to invade? But knew that the Trolls would never trust a human sent to their court? And then someone asked if there was a spell that could find it out and the queen asked me to look for one? Well it's been weeks, and I finally managed to find a ritual that should help." She sips more of the milk. [color=#339933]"The ritual should let us see the queen's secrets, so long as she isn't using similar magic to conceal them. I have nearly everything I need, but to complete the ritual I need something belonging to the person who's secrets I'm trying to see, something personal."

Jomm's shoulders tense. "So...we needto try and pinch something off the Queen of Alternia...?" Jomm shudders at the thought. Few things scared him more than the Queen. He was one of very few humans to have actually seen her in person.

Years ago, she had seen fit to speak directly with the the Queen of Jomm's own country.

Back then, Jomm was nothing more than a small Page. Over the course of the Troll Monarch's visit, she had shoved him out of the way for standing in her path, hissed in his face for speaking out of turn, brandished a war hammer in his face just to watch him flinch, and punched him on the arm for bringing him a drink too warm.

The light blow, a mere "lovetap", had dislocated his shoulder.

She was a queen for a reason. That reason wasn't just her terrifying intellect, her unwavering cruelty, or her insatiable ambition. That womantroll was STRONK as FUCK. His own Queen eventually snapped at the Alternian Mistress for mistreating him so, and though the young Page appreciated his Queen standing up for him, it didn't change the weeks he spent with his arm in a sling.

"...Let's ask the Queen. She can probably delegate the job to a suitablethief." Jomm folded his arms across his chest. And I'M thankfully NOT a suitablethief.

Skye nods, and finishes the milk. She hadn't been serving the queen when the Alternian queen visited, still being apprenticed to her sister, who kept her well away from the court during the visit, but had heard the stories, and she had no more desire to try to steal from her than Jomm did. "That's a good idea."

In this world lives also a rustblooded troll, by the name of Nectis.

For now, we turn to her.

Nectis, like a few others, lives beneatht he proud streets of Alternia. Her views conflict with those above, and thus she dons the colors of a peasant class and has joined those that live also below, hiding vibrant greens, blues, even purples under these brown-tinted reds. Speaking out is hard in such a place as Alternia, but these trolls try, dodging constantly the iron fist above, and struggling to keep even the words of their followers straight.

These few, with whom Nectis dwells, have no name. But they speak, and when they cannot they stand, against the hierarchy of Alternia determined by blood color. They number about twenty or thirty, but they are often spread far, and their efforts go largely unnoticed. But they count themselves among the brave, standing against the caste system rather than fleeing from it, despite the fact that many are not even standing for the same reasons, or against the same problems.

Nectis herself is a violetblood, and a seadweller, though she cloaks herself in colors of rust and hides her fins behinds loops of hair. She stands with these, of course, but not because she thinks the caste system is unfair; she believes, rather, that it causes lowbloods to be kind and friendly, and highbloods to be cruel and haughty, invariably.

At the moment she wears her usual garb and strides through the streets of Alternia, searching for a grocer. A heavy grey cloak rests about her shoulders, concealing her rust-colored clothes for safety reasons, though she otherwise would wear them proudly.

After so long walking, Nectis finally stops to rest, leaning against a brick building and taking the hot, heavy hood off of her red-dyed hair to peer up at the towering hives around her. Her eyes close for a moment or two, then open, and she brushes a few damp, red strands out of her face and scans the windows above for any watching figures.

Then she spots one, and frowns. She can't tell who it is from so far below, but it is dangling halfway out it's window, and, like her, scanning the world below. Instinctively, Nectis clenches her fists and straightens herself, placing her feet a bit further apart in a more sturdy, defensive position, though she remains against the wall. Her gaze does not waver from the troll above her.

"Alright. I was gonna spend today fishing, but I'm sure QueenRani wouldn't mind us dropping in." Jomm smiled, and went to gather his things.

He eyed up his family sword, Bonnie. He reached out, and stroked her scabbard, then grabbed his backpack. He looped the scabbard through a loop on the backpack, securing the sword. He walked to the door. "Well, whenever you'ready!"

The three then began to cross the bridge, Otis peering over the edge anxiously.
"I never liked going this way. The railings are too small, and the bridge is always crowded."
There was a pause as he glanced around; there were maybe five other people on the bridge.
"Usually crowded."
The Maid shrugged, her eyes locked ahead of her as she skipped.
"Looks like almost everyone is sleeping in today. Almost." Abel frowned at Iris, and she replied with a smile.

~~~~~

Almost everyone. A young, though powerful troll paced around his hive, peering outside every so often. He was by the sea, where the hives were less dense, but even the Mage could see that almost everyone was out and about today. This highblood, tall, strong and rather aggressive, didn't like crowds. To much pushing- from his end, but still, -too many people, and the buzz of the lowblooded masses always managed to disgust him. Haidan sighed, peering outside again. He'd venture out today, he decided. He always liked digging, and the sunnier parts of the world were dark when it came to their undergrounds. So, he grabbed his tools and set out, making sure to take the emptier routes. He'd reach the Alternian border soon enough.

A young bard is sitting at one of the tables in an inn. He makes his distaste for the mediocre entertainment obvious, but he just sits there with a smile on his face.

  He doesn't stay in one place very long, for reasons he was about to make clear. He has eaten his fill, now to get down to buisness. He gets up, and walks over to where the kegs are. He casually gets out a match, and lights it. He stops for a second to admire the beautiful flame, and flicks the match at the kegs. He casually walks out as the building explodes behind him, the screams of the burning trolls piercing the air. He turns a moment and, once more, examines the beautiful fire that will soon burn down the forest. He smiles to himself, and starts walking down the road.

  After about a mile, he sees a troll's hive off the road a ways. "Only onE trOll", he thought to himself. "NOt wOrth thE bothEr." He contuniues walking, and completely ignores the hive. Although he itches to go and break the hive into little pieces, along with the troll inside, he has more pressing matters to attend to.

In the bustling metropolis financial capital of alternia, a wonderful place named sæcula lætitia in human tongue, known for its extravagant lights, gambling, and brutally entertaining shows!
There are rumors of some underground trolls, standing up to the blood caste, but hey, who cares about that when there is gonna be a public execution of warcrimanals/parade/concert?!

A young royal seadweller Imnaan looks down to the streets before him from a rented hive stem compartment, decked out in sparkly purple suit, slick and combed back white and black hair, purple tinted sunglasses settled lazily on his nose, and purple leather dress shoes, he wore a green tie with high contrast to the purple on his suit, a giant furlined black over cloak with gold trim, and wide brimmed sparkly hat with leopard pattern stripe at the base, he had his guitar in one hand, and a cane in the next, a sleazy smile and eyes that sure to vex, his cane and cloak drop to the ground as he lept from the balcony and here comes the sound! Of fifty jolly purple veined, good for nothing goons, bad for everyone they come near as you'll find out soon, they pop the hinges from the doors! As Imnaan hits the floor! And bust out clubs and trumpets, and an epic sax guy, who just blows and huffs and puffs away right on the fly, and Imnaan strolled onto the street to this old timey jazzy beat, towards the lined up humans in the gallows and whispers to the ghastly fellows, "Hav€ you s€€n your sins against this holy stat€? Did you know that taking my s€a and sky is you numb€r on€ mistak€?!", they shake their head and then they dead from the lever Imnaan pulled, his sense of morals dulled, as he skipped along the path of blood and bones made into gravel stone he walked up to a dude in chains and marked his brow with a nail and let the gavel come on dome, here's a song sung by him as he walked down the aisle and made a bloody red mile that you can not run from,
Do you s€a what happ€ns, wh€n you fuck with m€, you took both blu€ sky and oc€an, and now h€r€'s th€ f€€, a thousand d€aths a minut€, from which you can't fl€€, you bastards s€a your tr€ason, so punishm€nt has rhym€ not reason! Wh€n you st€p in alt€rnia! you! Will! Bl€€€€€€€€€€€€d!"

He said as the grand finale, by now everyone is cheering at all the carnage of mangled bodies of humans, and some lowblood trolls and murderers, the reasons for the human deaths that make up the majority of execution today are because of their occupation of the oceans, the previous area that royal seadwellers ruled from, this has people like Imnaan pretty pissed, especially, now that they'd kill him on sight if he ever tried to wind surf anymore, now these soldiers of a recent skirmish have been captured, bound, and slaughtered for the amusement of our common gentle trolls. to summarize that display:Imnaan jumped out a window in a pimp's suit and fifty subjuggalators playing jazzy instruments came out and they brutally murdered hundreds of humans and like ten trolls, with an audience, and while singing, Imnaan didn't get a single drop of blood on his suit, like always, style was one of his top priorities, important as his job as a performer, combined with the fact he was a royal means he has a ridiculous sum of wealth, and with this wealth he plans to assemble a crack team of assassins for a grand coup de grace of the human empire, but for now, he was simply returning to his local rumpus dandy mingle hive, or an inn to humans, where he will return to the room he jumped out from and have a nap, in an hour, he works on revolution! Now, he sleeps, wonder what that queen is up to....

Queen Cassiope Rhiannon broods, in her giant as fuck spiky castle, atop a gilded throne lined with the finest silk.

........ More on her later.........

Skye stands and grabs her satchel from the back of the chair, picking up the book from the table. As she walks to the door she settles the satchel on her shoulder so the strap goes diagonally across her body and the bag is resting on her hip. "I didn't realize you had plans. I can go see her myself, you should go fishing if that's what you planned to do." She looks back at him as she steps outside, frowning a little. She really hadn't meant to interrupt his plans.

The near death lime blood is still lying in the road, so close to the freedom he had been seeking in the human kingdom.

To what seemed minuets passed for Jill along with her companion dog Fluffly. Snaps her attentions out from staring out from the world bellow. Patting Fluffly's back when Jill began to stand up. Fluffly ran into the teepee tent, laying down on soft fabrics. Jill on the other hand scurries over to one tree quite close to the edge. Jill did not walk too close to the land's edge, but enough to approach the tree. Kneeling down to inspect what looks like a rope tied to a long sturdy branch. Whiles it was leading down from a branch to a pile of neatly Mooring up rope. Had another rope going off the edge.

Jill rolls up her plain purple dark toned tee shirt sleeves to grip the rope that's over the edge. She then pulls back as hard as she could with the sounds of struggle. It was not moving an inch. Even for when it seems to have something heavy down there. But lets be fair here. Jill has no living clue whats at the bottom of the rope, or is keeping it down. She feels tempted to look... But she will just burn her hands on it.

Jill rolled her eyes at the unsuccessful attempt in pulling the rope up. Letting go as she stands up. Jill turns to looks towards the tent for a bit and starts walking past it, in the general direction of the tall stone walls. Fluffly caught Jill leaving, hopping out from her resting spot to look at Jill in a slight whimper. Jill turns her head to look at Fluffly because of the sound she made, motioning her to stay. "Stay, Fluffly. I will return." Jill said as Fluffly trots back into the tent to rest. "Good girl." Jill said yet once more in a miner whisper towards herself before turning to walk more leftwards away from the hanging out site Jill's known to be mostly at.

Jill then finds herself on a wide stone road leading out towards what looks like an air dock? Jill stared at it as an airship seems to be in dock, loading people on as well supplies. She stood at the entrance of the town's walls whiles local human beings from different parts of the floating world, pass her, carrying either supplies on their backs as well some boxes of gold. Jill shook her head as she looks more rightwards of the air dock at the stone bridge, leading to another section of the floating land. The more Jill looked down it. The more distant it seemed. Jill knows that down that part is mostly farms, judging by the windmills. But she has never gone down it as of yet.

Jill finally turns to walk into the town square called "Bycrest", comes to Jills attention in seeing a statue in the center of towns square of the queen. It being slightly over grown by looks like bright green ivy whiles white flowers blooms all over it. The town square was mostly quiet now and then. With stalls out selling general goods that consist of bread, meat, veg and sometimes games to play to win money. All to keep the community thriving and the economy going.

There would be one inn near the long road leading up to what looks like a castle. Three houses along the back of the inner walls of the town, but upon entering near what would have been your left was the local blacksmith. Selling the finest and most expensive weaponry around whiles local farming tools on discount for those that only live in the general area.

If you were standing- Well know. More like Jill was standing in the center of the two mind you, looking left of the statue to see another house towards the left side of the road, behind the blacksmith. But on the right is completely blank. No one knows why a house has not been built on that plot in many years. But they mostly shrug it off. Even Jill does not know why. Anyhow she needs to go collect some money in the inn.

Jill walks over towards the inns entrance, walking past people in doing so to opens the door wide. Once inside of what looks like people hugging their tables of food and drinks- Jill coughs, not to mention the heavy smoking. Jeeze! Anyhow Jill makes her way to the desk of the inn, calling for one of the workers. "Oh hey! I'm here to collect my money? Is the owner here?" Jill called out at the barsmen who was way older than her. Cleaning a mug as he stares down at her. "Sorry love. The owner is out. But he did leave a note." He said. "A note?" Jill questioned the Barsman who works there. "Yeah. He'd left an hour ago to another regain of the world to collect something. He did not say why. But he was sure e'd be back in a couple of days. But it stated that your money was in the castle." He said again as he rubbed the mug down with the cloth in his hand. "Right..." Jill said slightly quietly whiles dragging it out. The Barsman looks down at her. "Listen love. You look frightened to even go in there? something wrong?" He asked Jill. "No." Jill said in response towards the Barsman question. "You sure?..." He asked again. "Well..." Jill said with uncertainty. "I see..." The Barsman sat back as he went back into cleaning his mug again. "Hm?" Jill looked up at him with interest. "Oh. Its just that its a new place for you. Considering at your age." He exclaimed. "Oh." Jill said quite mildly. "Yeap. I was like you. Unsure with new places." As the Barsman started to go on. "Ah, Okay. Well thanks though. I'd be going now. I don't want to hold you up on servings." Jill said as she went away from the desk. The Barsman caught her leaving as he cut mid way of his tail when he was younger. Shaking his head at Jill with a smile on his face, going back to cleaning his mug.

Jill pulls open the door of the inn to step out into the town square. Looking towards the main road that leads towards the castle. Jill starts her short walking journey towards the castle, walking up the road as she looks up at the more taller walls of the town. Being guarded by troops along the top. Jill walks towards the castle entrance to see two troops staring down at her as she walks pass them quiet quicker. She then sees a double door that's open wide, leading to the hallway. Jill was about to enter, but a troop stopped her. He told her to wait outside till the meeting is over. Jill leaned to see in, seeing what looks like six people talking about something... But oh well. Its not her concern, she stands there. Waiting.

Walkking through the woods, our thief, bow in hands, ends up seeing a figure in the distance. This troll in the distance is dripping lime colored blood. He jumps into a tree, and silently crawls across branches, approaching him slowly, and steadily.

Upon reaching the troll, he spots that CORVUS ELAPID is bleeding out. He knows Corvus. Not too, well, but he knows him from a few past events. Orfeus leaps out of the treee, and tries to help the troll stand, puttin his arm over his shoulder.

"Hey, hey, Corvus. Listen to me, you're gonna be alright, alright?" Orfeus tries to help him along through the woods.
