Travelers weren't encouraged. But someone who knew what he was doing could reach his goal. Wolf had never decided whether it was because there was some fixed, invisible geography and one observed it with a sixth sense, like a migrating bird, or whether it was simply that a clear goal, firmly pursued, simply placed itself in the path of the voyager. He might have dismissed it as a pointless speculation, except that sometime--soon, he thought--someone was going to have to reach a goal without any clear concept to pursue. And that someone might be him, at the least it would be some gladiator he had trained. For the moment, he knew exactly where he was going. There was a place, some people called it a temple, on the edge of Night. A place where the living could meet the dead on an equal footing. Where a shaman could meet with a Guardian of Night and neither have cause to fear the other. Wolf had been there twice before in his long life, and escaped. Many shamans said that no one ever escaped it a third time. That was a risk he would have to take. He walked. There was no measuring time or distance in the Spirit Lands, but his muscles felt that he walked a long way. His legs told him, though his eyes denied it, that he had come mostly uphill. This was proper. The place he was seeking lay on what passed for "high ground" here. If this were the "real" world, Wolf would call the air misty, foggy in spots. There was a drifting haziness, anyway, and that, too, was proper for the region he called "the edge of Night." It was darker on the other side. Still a Spirit Land, he supposed, but not the outer Spirit Land that most people heard about, the one he had just come through. This was just a preliminary. On the other side was the true home of the Dead and the spirits that were associated with them. The temple was in front of him. Without warning, as though it had materialized at that moment. Perhaps it had. It was black, a place of columns and arches like a great forest. Once he stepped between the pillars, he could hear water splashing in a fountain and smell the dampness of it. Water, and the need for water, did not exist in the Outer Land, but now the old shaman was aware of thirst. He looked at the fountain. The water arched and danced, splashed and dripped; it was silver. Not with trapped or reflected light, the water was the color of silver. It smelled fresh, and he knew it would be cool to the touch. Looking, hearing, smelling, his thirst was great. He would sooner drink poison than dip into that fountain without permission. He turned away from it. "So you came." Wolf turned to face the voice, but did not answer. What was there to say? Of course he had come. Light rippled and condensed, became a glowing mist between two of the pillars. One of the Servants of Balance; he did not know its name, if it had one, but he recognized the pattern. He called it Dalon, the Blue One. "What would the Dark Lord have of me?" "There has been trouble. Disturbances. Raids on the outlying marches, souls stolen and wrongfully used. It must stop." "Necromancers." The name was a curse in the old shaman's mouth. Some acted in ignorance of the damage they did, others knew and did not care. "There are always necromancers around. Most have little power and can be dealt with by the Guardians, even the Lesser Guardians, or so I have understood." "Yes. But one has come who is greater, and causes much trouble. And beyond the trouble that one causes, others seek to copy it, or to shelter under its wings. It must stop, or there will be no peace for the True Dead, who have earned it, and no souls for rebirth." "It would help if I had some way to identify this Master Necromancer," Wolf said. "We do not know the person," the Blue One answered, "only the damage in its wake. But it is working mostly in that small realm you call Alastari." "Lesser necromancers are as thick as fleas on a dog in Alastari," Wolf said. "The Grey Witch seems to attract them. A greater one could hide among them for a long time." "The Night Hunters will aid you." Wolf bit back a curse. He was to loose the Wild Hunt on Alastari? The cure might be worse than the problem. "I will talk to them," he said. "Tell them I'm coming." Near Morya: The wind poured over the graveyard in a dark river, driving clouds across the moon, rags of fog across the ground. Cloudrider hunched deeper into his cloak. "What are we waiting for?" "Something is going to happen," Young Joan said. "Something we need to witness." As she turned her head, the moonlight glinted off the silver pins holding her hair in a coiled crown. "Haruspek wasn't clear." "How could he be? He's dead." "I don't want to go over that again with you, 'Rider," Joan said. "It was a dream, okay? And no, not my imagination working after hours. Gods, this language. There should be different words for meaningless dreams, true dreams, prophetic dreams--so many kinds. Whatever. Trust me, it was a true dream, and Haruspek-- There!" She turned to face the northern edge of the graveyard. Trees already leafless with the turning season were silhouetted against the sky, clouds like dim pearls and glittering stars. Cloudrider couldn't see anything else there. An aurora condensed and rippled, spears of blue light shooting upward. A shadow moved, drifting closer. Man-shaped, but the movement was a boneless glide. He took a step back, away from it, and was brought up short by Joan's grip on his arm. The Lady Protector spoke, her words half chant and wholly unfamiliar. Short sentences, with rhymes hammering down at the end of every other one like spikes driving into a post. Something in the night tightened like a bowstring or a harp string, humming, pitch climbing higher and higher into silence as the tension built. It was magic of some kind, and Cloudrider wanted nothing to do with it. What he wanted had... nothing to do with it. He glanced sideways at Joan. Her face was pale, strained. Resolute. Whatever this spell meant, she was going through with it, and he had promised to stay with her to the end. He regretted that promise, but it had been made and must be kept. Damn. No, he took back the 'damn', that might be too close to the reality of this night and this... ghost for anyone's comfort. As Joan chanted, the vague form drew together, taking definite shape. Definitely a man, even a man someone might recognize, though it was no one Cloudrider had known. The tension in the night eased. Beside him, Joan sighed. "I greet you, Nightwind," she said. "How may the living aid the dead?" Cloudrider thought the ghost spoke, but the message was not for him. All he heard was a murmur of sound, a whisper of wind, a slur of fallen leaves against the ground, a hiss of blown sand or snow. The rhythms were Rirorni, but they twisted away from the dialects he knew. He didn't understand the words, but he knew what he was hearing: This was the way the shamans of the tribes talked to the dead and the Greater Spirits, the way they were answered. How had Young Joan learned to understand? Uncle Wolf might have taught her, if there was good reason. And why? If she had learned for this... effort which lay before them, what did that say about its importance? Things he didn't want to hear, probably. Not that it mattered what he wanted, because he could tell that he was in this now, and that even a death in the arena wouldn't free him from the task to be done. As he watched, fighting the urge to retreat, ghostly hands came forward and clasped Joan's, the aurora danced and faded, and then the ghost turned to him. Cloudrider wanted to retreat, but his limbs were frozen. The ghost... embraced him. He gasped and breathed in mist that was not quite mist. Something settled inside him, and sighed, and stretched. Cloudrider saw his own arms stretch out, his hands open and close, watching as though it was a remarkable occurrence. There was a voice in his mind, but he closed his awareness against it, slammed the doors of his soul against the Thing that had invaded him. "Relax," Young Joan advised. "Don't fight it. We need this help to--" "Easy for you to say! YOU don't have--" "I also bear the spirit of a teammate who has passed through to the next world. She was once known as Selumia. We need their help," Joan said, "just as they need ours." "But--" "Don't make Nightwind take control by force," she warned. "It should be a partnership, not a domination." Shaking, Cloudrider whispered, "I'm afraid." "Do not fear me," the other in his mind whispered. "I seek no unlawful possession. But others do, others among the living and the not-fully-dead-- necromancers!" The last word came from Nightwind as a curse. "What a necromancer may do with the carcasses we leave behind is... abominable, a travesty of life. What they do to the living souls that have departed their material existence is... much worse. A slavery of the darkest kind. But we, the dead, dare not attempt to stop them directly, for they will simply seize us and add us to their victims. Only the living can fight them, but only we, the dead, can bring you to where they are." "This is the best time to begin." Young Joan's voice seemed to come from a great distance. "At this season, the barrier between the worlds is thinnest." The voice, it wasn't quite Joan's, though Cloudrider could not have defined the difference, paused, then went on. "And there are other reasons for acting now that are... difficult to explain to one who has not a shaman's training." * }%|[-----+O+-----]|%{ * }%|[-----+O+-----]|%{ * }%|[-----+O+-----]|%{ * ---===FREE BLADES REGIONAL NEWS===--- Duelmasters ----------- DM 9 ZUKAL (turn 579): INCISOR of FANGS (The Anarchist, mgr.)

DUELMASTER'S COLUMN Notes from the arena champ. Neopolitan - Your manager and her friend talked a big game, but as you have now been taught, there is more to this profession that being big and strong. It was fun and I wish you the best. The rest of Lapur -- As predicted by Storm Front I received my invite right on schedule. I leave my challenges open to any who have the desire to sit upon this throne that I will be leaving empty. Of course, you may have to pay off the commission to get a scheduled fight with me, as the Mead has top priority via their blood feud. Since this is my last fight here in Lapur or anywhere for that matter, I will use this time tell you some things about me. I am the most successful lunger Storm Front has run (not saying much), but with the help of those who know better than him, Storm Front trained me as an 11(1)-9(1)-16-17(1)-21(1)-5(1)-11(1). A miner and his wife thought is would be good to make me a "burner." (Thank you) Therefore, until Storm Front decides to rob a moneychanger, I will most likely not be fighting for some time if at all. Here are the others: AdEx in INT and ATT.....yep, that's it. Favorite Weapon is Epee (never used it), rhythm LO/VH.....What the.....!! LO? Oh well..., maybe I will not even fight after SF robs the moneychanger. Oh, almost forgot favorite learn was INT. SPY REPORT I was going on vacation, see? Surf, sun... But what do those bums say? "Hit the road, Debby Tonte. LAPUR needs a spyreport." Oh, well. See if I even talk to any of those losers in CARDOW HUNTERS again! Didja see where they got 0-5-0? Somebody musta won a lotta fights! MID EARTH like really fought hard to move up to 2nd from 9th. Way to go! One team deserves special mention 'cause they moved up 7 after going 4-1-0. Keep it up, EQUESTORS! MVP award for SPARKLE FARKLE? ESCAPADE's proud of her after beating ROSEMARY and getting 31 points. Talk about yer big time losers! PETUNIA got smashed by ARONWE, and lost 18 points! MORRIGAN thinks hers 18-8-1 and studly character is good enough to face up to the Duelmaster. Any bets? Was that a tear I saw in MORRIGAN's eye, as she took over Duelmastership? And wasn't TYE FOON fit to be tied! Who was the wiseguy that said LAPUR's Duelmaster was paying for drinks at The Burning Tree? Don't look at me! AAARRGH!!! I HATE SPYREPORTING!!! Sorry. I just had to say it. STREET WALKERS was the most avoided team. Is a 448-290-38 record really that scary? Is there some deep dark secret why BLACK SAMURAI's been avoiding STREET WALKERS so much? Or is it just that they're too scared? Like, is RED LILY popular, or what? She was challenged the most in all of LAPUR! She's got a 11-12-0, is that good? I'm not so sure JASON knew all the facts when he challenged DIRTY SANCHEZ of STREET WALKERS. I saw JASON stumbling and dribbling at The Burning Tree last week... DIRTY SANCHEZ subdued JASON, and was I surprised (right!). But its a good thing DIRTY SANCHEZ could stop laughing long enough to give JASON a good pounding. For sure, I was holding my breath when I found out CAMULUS challenged BRICKHOUSE. After all, haven't GODS OF WAR and STREET WALKERS had a long standing duel in LAPUR? It wasn't a spectacular fight, or anything, but BRICKHOUSE wants me to write about it since she lost to CAMULUS. Satisfied? NEOPOLITAN must not be a good enough fighter to get in fair fights. He challenged MASI. 12 is a big difference. (Well, that's what they tell me.) I thought NEOPOLITAN showed great skill and promise when he won victory over MASI. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal! Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other! Don't you guys ever give it a break? Pinch me, I must be dreaming!!! KYOKO returns from the Dark Arena, maybe a "little upset" at hers WILL DUEL 4 MEAD teammates... I'm always kinda bummed when a decent warrior gets killed. VEGA, of VENUSIANS had a 12-6-0 when she got bumped off by KYRA. What a bummer! AALAIYA got wasted by MAD DOG MONTANA! But with a 4-10-0, I guess BLOOD KNIGHTS aren't too bummed. What a bummer deal for REBECCA! She just barely was getting hers "fighter feet" but got kill by FRENCH SILK of SWEETNESS! Those're the breaks, I guess. It was kind of sad, seeing old ROSEMARY stumbling around the arena, before SPARKLE FARKLE finished her off. Oh well! So WILL DUEL 4 MEAD has one more turn to Bloodfeud FORCE OF NATURE's TYE FOON. Big deal. TESSA's dead. What's the point? Ya just gotta go on. Don't look back... Like was that some Bloodfeud, or what? (ZERO VISABILITY vs. FIREFLY, that is.) LUCY bloodfeuded (is that a word?) SONNY DAZE for revenge over some guy's bad fortune. Was it really worth it? What if they had a fight and nobody showed up? I'd be out of a job, that's what!!! I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid. Who would've guessed I'd be a famous Spyreporter? I gotta leave. LAPUR is like such a dump, and you guys smell too much!

I wonder what they meant? Did I do OK? -- Aluminum Awl Venus -- Me gal? Chatter? Dain't want nary yer chatter; want yer, hmmmmmmm. Best not bea talking; Ora be listenin'; sure. -- Oremaster Oremaster -- Hmpfff! But, I just have to laugh. If you get your hands on Venus, you'd have to treat her as a figurine, not a lusty action heroine. You don't have much else in you. Sorry, Old Codger. (Chuckle) -- Ora Sporkis equals succinct? Not. (wink) -- Ora Lazarian -- Backatchee, Priest. Ye do confessions? -- Oremaster Midnight Ruin -- I had my chance, but you really sintered! Salute. -- Silver Scinterer Forward -- You put some dents in my shiny, but the metal held true. (Not like the plastic I hear some use nowadays.) -- Chrome Crimper Mad Dog Montana -- A great battle and some nice learns. I think the RUGS may have given you a little unfair treatment, but what the heck. I needed that! -- Platinum Peener Good luck to all Lapur in The Mailer. There will not be any Mincers entered, but we wish our fellow Consortiumites well in their endeavors also. -- Oremaster, Ora, and the gang Venus -- A creditable symbolic gesture, it was after all your up-challenge, but bloodfeuds need to be settled. Disservice to the fallen, overall team moral plummets, implied insult to my fighter...<shrug> you know how it is. It's tough the way things worked out but thems the rules. -- Scion Rosemary -- Ah, you devil-may-care devil, you. -- S'tou, wait one, I resemble that remark <grin> Zero Visibility -- Eh, I've seen worse on blind dates. And if you wished for your gentlemanlyness to sway me...you could've worked your way up to the rematch. -- Sparkle Farkle Enyalius -- Now that's adulation. -- Petunia Dirty Sanchez -- That lye's pretty bad all right, worse'n the pumice, but that pumice don't step aside lightly. Stupid floating rock, swear I glowed in the dark when the girls were done. Damn dog tried to defend me from my own stuff. -- Buzzsaw NAIEI -- Thanks for the name correction. -- the Sunstriders Road Kill and the Street Walkers -- Thanks for the warm welcome, see you on the sands. -- Salik and the Sunstriders Venus -- Teratin sucked and had no potential but thank you for the kind words. For the record though he was not trying to kill Solar it may have just seemed that way. Don't be confused though, Venger IS trying to kill Solar. Teratin was like a brother to him. Life sucks then you lose it. -- Salik Solar Eruption -- I am Venger Elias Antiga, you killed my brother, prepare to die. -- Venger Callisto -- My aim just sucks. -- Masi White Ape -- Another 100,000 years of evolution and you should try again. -- Unknown Convicted Thief -- Wow, just wow. Thirty-one swings, thirty-one misses. At least I won't have to polish any of my shields. -- Rebecca Sorry for my recent lack of personals lately. A promotion in my real life has left me with very little time in my fantasy life. -- Sovereign Storm Front -- Well, so much for that one decent warrior on your team. Congrats to Tye Foon on his ascension. -- Sovereign and the Gods P.S. If you are taking suggestions for names, how about Harry Cane or Sue Nami. Or if you are looking for something different, how about Britney Spears. Lord know that's a huge disaster right now. Sanchez -- Yes I feel lucky. Lucky to be alive. With Tye leaving, I think we will be fighting each other sooner than both of us would have liked. Good luck. -- Morrigan Mensa -- We look forward to it. Well everyone but Morrigan. -- Sovereign Urd -- Nothing personal taken. I just wanted to test my warriors against someone who is obviously skilled. Hopefully, we con continue this far into the future. -- Sovereign Did any else notice the drama between two of our top managers lately? Who has the popcorn? -- Sovereign Mensa -- OK. That was much easier than I was expecting. Hopefully that was just a strategy experiment on your part. -- Camulus Jason -- Sorry about the challenge. You had to expect that especially after our last fight. -- Morrigan Petunia -- I guess you showed me who was the better in style. We will definitely have to do this again. -- Enyalius Mephol -- I hate to rip on an opponent but you should have won. You are severely lacking in what makes you style work. Increase your strength and will or you will have a short career. -- Athena Forte -- What can I say besides thanks for not killing me. -- Qetesh Crimper -- Sorry about the treatment, but you caught me experimenting with that weapon. Otherwise you may have won. -- Aereon Sporkis -- Sorry I couldn't impress you. Next time I will try to kill Goo. Too bad, though, I happen to like him. -- Kyra Akumu -- Ouch!!! Sorry about the first hit. That probably ruined your weekend. -- Talym P.S. Do you know if they make platemail cups? If they do, you may want to invest in one. Longinus -- How much damage can you take?? -- Aalaiya Red Lily -- Remind me not to try that again. -- Kyra Cloud Tiger -- I'm hoping that wasn't the strategy you used to beat my teammate? -- Aereon Urat -- Impressive. Thank you for taking it easy on me. -- Basaido Oremaster and Ora -- Fated to dance the sands our stables seem to be. Whether deemed by the fates or forced by the Norns, opponents with honor we are glad to meet. -- Lazarian, keeper and priest the to Abyssal Plains Sunstriders -- Greetings to thee and thine. -- Lazarian Aalaiya -- Somewhat surprised at how the match ended. -- Longinus Forget -- You got the jump, I did not get in a swing, you won, if we match up again you might want to wear some armor in case I am lucky enough to get in a swing. -- Lysias Death Mob -- The only reason you got your Bloodfeud is because I do not avoid or hide for 5 turns. -- Spartacus P. Sponge -- If you were really petrified you should have shattered after the pounding you took. -- Aponius Ava Lantch -- I think you might have gone with something more along the lines of Ava Lynch? Although it would appear that your manager has a strong dislike for you anyway, or he wouldn't have sent you for the bloodfeud. Still, good try. -- Firefly Aereon -- (crossly) If you hadn't had a goat staked out to distract me, I'd've done better. I could hardly have done worse. -- Cloud Tiger Kyra -- Good try, but no rolled herbal product. What can I say? (shrugs) Sure, cats are fast and graceful, but you're nothing next to an elf. -- Red Lily P.S. Okay, the Commission calls me an elf, but I'm actually only part elf, it just doesn't show that I've got a lot of Rirorni in me. I'm still more graceful than you are, so there! P.P.S. Hey, it's been that kind of day all around, and I'm not TAKING any more of it, okay? Goo II -- Great! You're some kind of glue, aren't you? Maybe you can put the pieces of the sky back together and make them stay up. -- Sky Falling Unknown -- I should have expected this. They're all against me, my manager and the Commission, everybody! Matching me against somebody who started out with infinitely more fights and even now has twice as many as I do. Is this fair? Of course not, but I no longer expect "fair" from the world. It's all of a piece. -- White Ape P.S. One skill? One lousy skill, that's all you deign to teach me out of your abundant experience? Cheese! Rage -- I did toss them, but you must have had trouble catching. Of course, the sun was in your eyes. -- Firefly Mensa -- Actually, the problem was that Snowshoe was NOT missed...at a critical point in his last fight. -- Jorja, Cardow Hunters Tye Foon -- Yes, yes, I'm sure you DESERVE something along the line of "lands," but we don't HAVE any. There isn't a square inch from here to Morya that hasn't been claimed by somebody already, and we'd have a war on our hands if we tried to take it away from them. Er, ah. If you, um, care to take your "lands" from the Monuntial side, well, we already HAVE a war with them. -- Chetam, odd-job man for Lapur Arena Rewrite -- No skills!?! Well at least you didn't get any either; I guess we are both bad teachers. -- Vega Venger -- Wow, your manager wasn't kidding about trying to kill me off. I hope that I can make it through these next three fights. -- Solar Eruption Murry -- It always puts a smile on my face when I win and learn a lot. -- Ankaa Masi -- Um, OUCH! -- Callisto Camulus -- Did I happen to mention that I don't want to leave Lapur by body bag? Yes, that is right, I actually want to graduate. -- Mensa Firefly -- Same as Rage last turn, I really did not figure to win, but Storm Front made me come out and do it. -- Ava Croc Files -- Out stables have had some good go arounds.... I am open for all blood feuds you send my way. Sorry about Mossman. -- Sonny Daze Skuld -- I look forward to as many fights between us as our managers can stand. -- Rage Waters Sparkle Farkle -- Go Figure...shows how much knowledge Storm Front has about managing. He sends me out with a specific strategy and I lost big time to you, then the next turn I fight with a generic strat with a random match up and I win, but you did get some nice skills. -- Zero Aluminum Awl -- Don't sell yourself short. Ora just didn't know that Oremaster was out at the taverns a little too late one night and was giving advice to Storm Front. I wrote a DM column...Storm Front just did not send it! -- Tye Foon Oremaster -- Thanks for the "attaboy." -- Tye Skuld -- When you win more than one fight in a row you can begin talking again, until then...you're just talking. -- Ava Firefly -- As I have told others before, the Bloodfeud isn't always about winning... sometimes it's about what you can teach those warriors who get a free fight with those who can teach well. The way the system is set up, a team can almost always get a revenge for a death in the end. -- Storm Front, mgr. Force of Nature P.S. And sometimes it is suicidal...not all warriors are created equally, and it is a better way to go than the DA. 23 October 2007 ****************************************** ****************************************** ***** ******* ***** STORMCROWE SLAUGHTERHOUSE 3 ******* ***** ******* ****************************************** ****************************************** 9 TEAM (18 MANAGERS) have declared for the STORMCROWE SLAUGHTERHOUSE 3!!!
