The whole room resembles a fishing dock. Old fishing nets cover the ceiling and the walls, a steering wheel of a ship stands in the corner. Pictures line the walls and various utilities for fishing, stand on shelves. Behind a wooden counter stands an old man, cleaning some mugs. A price list is hanging on the wall behind him. Six tables are standing around, each surrounded by four chairs, inviting you to sit down and have a drink. The pub is quite empty, not many guests are around. A bearded old man is playing a song on a lute. There is one obvious exit: west. An old busy male human. The old busy male human yells in xyllic: Greetings traveller ! The old busy male human yells in xyllic: Take a seat and have a drink ! The old busy male human smiles friendly. // Time: 21:38:00 You hum a mystic melody to your deity. You tell Romer: please meet me in the pub in Lyra's cove. That's the little harbour near your monastery, just in case you don't know it. You sit down at the wooden table close to the counter. A falcon swoops down on you. It lands at your feet and transforms into a fierce warrior. He starts to speak with a thundering voice: I shall tell you from Romer: Im on my way. after delivering his message he transforms again into a falcon and flies away. You unwield the sacrificial knife. You sheathe your sacrificial knife in your scabbard belt. // Time: 21:42:00 A falcon swoops down on you. It lands at your feet and transforms into a fierce warrior. He starts to speak with a thundering voice: I shall tell you from Romer: Where did you say to meet? after delivering his message he transforms again into a falcon and flies away. You hum a mystic melody to your deity. You tell Romer: In lyra's cove in the pub. You hum a mystic melody to your deity. You tell Romer: walk out of your monastery, follow the path to the west and southwest, and in Lyra's cove the pub is to the east. Romer dances in. Romer smiles. The old busy male human yells in xyllic: Greetings traveller ! The old busy male human yells in xyllic: Take a seat and have a drink ! The old busy male human smiles friendly. You smile. Romer says in xyllic: Greetings. say Hello! You say in xyllic: Hello! Romer bows gracefully. You look up to Romer. Romer is a round-eyed brown-haired male elf, presenting himself as: Romer, male elf. He is very tall and skinny for an elf. He looks coarse. He is in good shape. He is extremely weary. He is wearing two golden rings, a large backpack, a leather falconer's glove, a winged helmet and a yellow ornamented cleric's robe. You guess he is wearing a mithril shirt, a pair of elegant trousers and a snake suit additionally. Romer sits down at your table. You nod slightly. Romer looks at you. Romer says in xyllic: How are you? Romer smiles friendly. You say in xyllic: Fine, thank you! Romer nods friendly. You say in xyllic: and you? Romer says in xyllic: Wonderful! Romer nods happily. You say in xyllic: and its really a wonderful day today... Romer says in xyllic: You mentioned convert? Romer taps his foot thoughtfully. You smile friendly. You say in xyllic: WEll, yes, I'd like to convert you... Romer goes hmmmm. You say in xyllic: So you want to learn about me and my god? Romer says in xyllic: I know about your GOd. Romer smiles at you. Romer says in xyllic: See let me tell you my experince. Romer smiles friendly. You nod slightly. Romer says in xyllic: The first GOd I leanred about was indeed Rokoon. Romer says in xyllic: So naturally I thought it was the right one. Romer shrugs helplessly. You say in xyllic: go ahead, please... You smile patiently. Romer says in xyllic: Well, I gave all I had to impress all these clerics... Romer says in xyllic: Working hard... and look at me.. Romer says in xyllic: Tell me what is wrong with me... You nod slightly. Romer looks at the yellow ornamented cleric's robe. Romer says in xyllic: See that robe? Romer says in xyllic: Robe of a pilgrim... You say in xyllic: yes... it means you are a pilgrim You nod knowingly. Romer says in xyllic: I have been in there guild for almost 2 years now without a promotion... my miracles are higher then most priest. Romer says in xyllic: And Im still a pilgrim. You say in xyllic: indeed, this must be frustrating... Romer says in xyllic: Im sure you know Gwendeorn.. You nod knowingly. Romer says in xyllic: And how he can never be wrong.... Romer says in xyllic: In any situation. Romer says in xyllic: Well, anyways I dont need to bother you with this. You say in xyllic: I know him as a powerful enemy, but not without honour.... he is your mentor? Romer says in xyllic: What Im curious about is Priesthood of your guild... Romer shakes his head. Romer says in xyllic: Gwenderon isnt... Romer says in xyllic: Astaroth is. You nod slightly. You say in xyllic: I think I don't know him Romer says in xyllic: Because over the years I ahve learned that yur God holds the utmost power... Romer nods firmly. You say in xyllic: so you are longing for power? Romer says in xyllic: This is power I have seen flowing through the veins of the priest's in your guilds. You nod slightly. Romer says in xyllic: Watching this, and seeing them makes me want it more. You say in xyllic: But you know what we have to pay for it? Romer says in xyllic: They are so perfect. You smile silently. Romer says in xyllic: Indeed. Romer says in xyllic: I know. Romer says in xyllic: But you get so much more in return... Romer nods seriously. You nod slightly. Romer says in xyllic: So, tell me... Romer says in xyllic: If I let you convert me.... You say in xyllic: Hm? Romer says in xyllic: ANd I "pay" what I owe, I can become a priest and I would never have to deal with Rokoon again? Romer hums a mystic melody. You say in xyllic: I can't promise such a thing to you. Romer goes hmmmm. Romer sighs deeply. Romer asks you in xyllic: IS there anyone that can? You say in xyllic: Because only few are chosen. Romer sniffs. Romer says in xyllic: My dreams are once again shot down. You say in xyllic: Well... first you have to leave this foolish demon Rokoon, then convert to Huitzilopochtli, then serve... Romer hums a mystic melody. Romer says in xyllic: Serve... yes I have heard of poeple serving Him for a long time before becoming choosen. You say in xyllic: and then, *perhaps*, someone can check and talk about more Romer says to you in xyllic: I think I will have to think about this a bit more... because I want to have the strenght but... there is no garentee that I will get it. You smile slightly. Romer smiles. You say in xyllic: Your thoughts are strange... Romer giggles happily. You say in xyllic: please listen to me... Romer says in xyllic: Im a strnage kin of guy. Romer nods solemnly to you. You say in xyllic: When I became a priest, I was quite young Romer listens to you. You say in xyllic: I had served Huitzilopochtli quite a while... You say in xyllic: supporting the priests, and preaching in the roads of padorn Romer nods slowly. You say in xyllic: People knew me well... You say in xyllic: and the satai watched my steps You say in xyllic: and I spent my time talking about Huitzilopochtli You say in xyllic: and rather not with adventures, of with fights Romer nods solemnly. You say in xyllic: so, when I joined the guild and became disciple You say in xyllic: I was quite unexperienced and weak... Romer nods understandingly. You say in xyllic: and it took a very long time until I became stronger. Romer says in xyllic: But... Romer says in xyllic: As you see... Romer says in xyllic: I have had experince... You nod solemnly. You say in xyllic: I see that you have experience, and that you want power... Romer says in xyllic: I want to feel power. You say in xyllic: But it seems to me that you don't want to serve Romer says in xyllic: I want to feel it running through my body. Romer says in xyllic: Rokoon doesnt do that to me. You smile sadly. You say in xyllic: We only use our powers to fulfill our holy tasks Romer nods understandingly. You say in xyllic: and not... to satisfy ourselves Romer says in xyllic: The priest of Rokoon tell me the same thing... but they are not as powerful as you. You say in xyllic: If you don't understand this, you will never be a good priest. Neither of Huitzilopochtli, nor, I beg your pardon, of Rokoon. Romer nods understandingly. Romer says in xyllic: Romer says in xyllic: Well.. You say in xyllic: I would recommend that you try to become a psionic... they work for their own power... and seem to feel pretty much of it. Romer says in xyllic: I must think about this more. Romer says in xyllic: They didnt want me. Romer says in xyllic: Satais did like me for a long time. Romer says in xyllic: Most of the AM's dont like me either and I have done anything. Romer shrugs helplessly. Romer says in xyllic: There all idiots. Romer nods firmly. You raise an eyebrow. You say in xyllic: So nobody wants you and all of them are idiots? Romer says in xyllic: nah, it isnt a want... Romer says in xyllic: They like to play games... Romer nods firmly. You say in xyllic: Little cleric, you should perhaps reconsider your behaviour... Romer says in xyllic: To tell you one thing and go back to there guild and tell there guild mate bad things about you that never happend... Romer says in xyllic: Maybe you dont understand either.... Romer sighs deeply. You say in xyllic: I am a very patient person. Romer says in xyllic: I thought you would that is why I contacted you but I guess you dont either. Romer says in xyllic: This is pointless now. Romer stands up and leaves your table. You shrug helplessly. Romer says in xyllic: Im sorry, I wasted your time, Crotalo. You say in xyllic: It was not wasted... You smile friendly. Romer smiles at you. Romer says in xyllic: Thank you for coming. You nod solemnly. Romer waves happily. Romer starts moving west. Romer skips out west. You think about it but fail.
