Legend of Zelda: Congregation of Shadows (the RP)

[Gee-chan]

OOC: Ok, in this bit, there will be another experiment put in for where people can fit it. As we now know how people react to writing a fight in a single post, we shall see how you manage a conversation. Don't worry, not all of the experiments will be like this, but they will all be different than norm methods of doing an RP.


As Alana walked through the camp she would up drawing the attention of the men around her (being pretty much the only woman they had seen in months who was not bent on killing them) receiving many stares. As she drew up to the rough area of where her tent would be a high pitched sound cut through the air. Yes...she had indeed just been wolf whistled. Turning to face the origin of the sound she saw a familiar face......

(Ok, Erin. Take over from here. It's up to you who the guy is, what his previous affiliation with Alana is and so forth. With that in mind, it is up to you to write him. Have fun!")



Mabala and Landara wandered around the edge of the camp towards the cluster of medical tents, as per the instructions they were given by one of the soldiers as they left. As they entered the largest of the field hospitals they saw dozens of men on makeshift beds. All of them were injured in some way, covered with bandages, most of them still breathing. The smell of blood and sweat was repugnant but did not seem to bother the men and women scurrying around in medic uniforms trying to treat as many of the injured as they could.
It was not long before they were spotted by one of the medics who instantly knew why they were here and redirected them to another tent on the edge of the cluster. Standing outside the entrance to this tent were more guards and a heap of weapons where piled in front of them. As the pair approached they were stopped before they could enter.

"Lay down your arms." one of them demanded, "We are under orders not to let any of you pass unless you are completely disarmed."

Understandingly, the pair nodded and added their weapons to the pile. As she did, Landara noticed a familiar looking blade among the confiscated armory, but who's it was she could not recall.

The pair were allowed in to see a similar scene as before, but this time on a much smaller scale and with gerudo women lying on the beds rather than hylian men. Looking about, both Landara and Mabala saw people they recognised.

"Lord Merk!" cried Landara, dashing over to a bed which contained the youth, his skin beaten and torn from the whirling sands, his arm in a sling and bandages holding together a nasty gash down his left side. The young king of the Gerudo, who Landara had personally forced out of the tower and away from the opening rift, had survived, but just barely.

(OOC: Ok, Dark. You know what you want to do, and if you look at what I said to Erin, you know how you will do it. Good luck. I hope you deal with this better than last time.)

[Sasha]

(Nope you know the only way I'll do it.)

Mabala sets her stuff down but not before saying. " Well you are on our lands so you disarm yourself also we have more right to be armed then you do." she sets them down and walks inside. She looks around at all the warriors and sighs. " what a wasteful war this was."

As Alana walked through the camp she would up drawing the attention of the men around her (being pretty much the only woman they had seen in months who was not bent on killing them) receiving many stares. As she drew up to the rough area of where her tent would be a high pitched sound cut through the air. Yes...she had indeed just been wolf whistled.

(I will do the best I can. No promises though.)

*Alana hears the wolf whistle and looks at the familiar face. It's her best childhood friend. Alex. She had some explaining to do. She walked up face to face with him.*

"Alex, you probably don't recognize me, but it's nice to see you again. What was with that wolf whistle?" Alana asked.

"I don't even know you hottie, my name is Alex Albert. Would you like to go out with me sometime? You are so hot!" Alex said as he blushed and copped a feel on her butt.

"You pervert! You didn't even let me explain what happened! You jerk! Now be quiet before I pull out my swords on you!" Alana said as she slapped Alex across the face.

"I'll listen, I'll listen." Alex said as he sat down on a rock and Alana sat across from him.

OOC: Hey, thanks for taking part Erin. See Dark, its not that hard, even if you can't think of everything right now, you can always add later. I will still need some time to write for everyone so you will have a good bit of time before we go. So Shadow, got any plans for Lyon?

Naarsa did not want to go into the camp. Such things were alien to her; the light, war, soldiers, bloodshed, all were things she did not know. Where was her home in reference to here? Such thoughts wandered through her head as she sat under the shade of a ruined pillar. How did people in this world deal with that bright thing in the sky? It was suffocating her entire being.

She, without knowing, started to curl up into a ball, trying to hid from the scorching desert sun when a hand on her shoulder made her jump. Looking up she saw the face of Garath, wearing a worried expression.

"Are you ok?" he asked

"Yeah" said Naarsa, "I'm fine."

"You're lying" said Garath, though not accusingly, "Something's wrong, I can tell."

"It's just...." started Naarsa

"You're scared?" asked Garath

"What?" asked Naarsa

"I would be." said Garath, "A different world, a changed body, being surrounded by something you've always associated with a painful death. I'm amazed you've been holding up so well."

"I just....I want...." Naarsa tried to speak but could not. Even as her words dies in her mouth, tears began to form in her eyes.

There was only one thing Garath knew that could help with something like this, something which any mother would have taught by experience to a child. Kneeling down, he wrapped his arms around the shaking girl, and embraced her in a hug. As he did the dam broke and the tears flowed forth like a torrent of silver as Naarsa wept with all her young heart.

"I just want to go home!" she cried, while Garath stayed with her, silent and doing the only thing he could.

[Shadowmaster]

OOC: Couldn't really think of much, sorry...

IC: Lyon strolls through the camp quietly.

[Gee-chan]

"Lord Merk!" cried Landara

"Who?" murmured the injured king of the gerudo

"I'm glad you're safe" said Landara

"You were at the statue when...." said Merk, "You're the one who forced me out."

"Yes" said Landara, "That was me."

"You're name it was...umm..." The young man faltered here...he had forgotten it

"It's Landara" said Landara, "Why did you wind up here?" she asked, "You should have gone back to the ruins."

"I had to find out what was going on." said Merk, "You saw what happened, not even these Hylians knew what was going on. I could tell that something else was going on here, so I came here to find out. On the way however, I got hit by some falling debris and taken here. I havn't been allowed to leave for days."

"Days?!" yelled Landara, "How long has it been since I forced you out of that room?!"

"About a week" said Merk, "The ting up there continued for the best part of a day before it suddenly stopped. I was taken in the day after. From what I can tell, they are still finding bodies of each side who were killed by the disaster."

"We were in there for a week?" said Landara quietly

"I need to get out of here" said Merk, "I will go to Hyrule and see for myself why this had befallen my people. But I need to ask you, will you come with me?"

[Gee-chan]

OOC: Double post, I know, sue me......crap, now I'm ruined.....

The quiet of the camp is broken by a great roar that tore across the desert sands. In the middle of the camp a huge plume of smoke rose from where a tend once stood, but was now simply a scorched mark on the ground littered with burning tatters of thick fabric. Obscured by the fire were a group of bodies, burned almost recognition, but scraps of intact clothing betrayed their identities. It was the Gerudo Elder, the acting commander of the Hylian camp and the guards who were standing on duty, dead in an instant.

"What the..." gasped Garath, looking at the smoke as it rose into the sky, while Naarsa gripped him closer in fear.


The explosion shook the inside of the field hospital, knocking patients off beds and causing hysteria among the confused inhabitants.

"What's going on!?" cried Landara.

Suddenly the two guards from outside burst into the room, their weapons drawn and the intent to butcher every Gerudo in the tent written all over their faces.

[Sasha]

Mabala growls. " I knew it. You are truly cowards."

Asylintha comes out of the shadows behind Mabala and draws her sword. " Luckily for us the didn't see me hiding in your shadow sis."

[Gee-chan]

"You who strike down our people even in an offer of peace" said one of the soldiers, "You shall perish!"

The guards, slowly and without a single drop in the guard, approached Asylintha. Meanwhile, behind them, more soldiers entered the tent, but rather than making for the trio, they approached the beds of the wounded. The execution had begun as chaos reigned throughout the camp.

[Shadowmaster]

"What is going on?" Lyon asked, looking at all of the mayhem. "What happened?"

[Gee-chan]

As Lyon looks around the camp, there is confusion everywhere as all try to work out what is happening. This scenario changes however as a voice cries out: "The Gerudo have ambushed us! We strike now to finish this once and for all!"

"Hey!" cried another voice, "You're not one of us! There are no women who bear arms in our number. You will die here alongside your kin!"

The man who spoke drew his weapon, wielding it with righteous fury, fighting for what he thought was good.

[Sasha]

Asylintha frowns. " Cowards." She reaches into the shadows and tosses Mabala her weapons. " Fools didn't ntoice i grabbed them back."

Mabal grabs them. " Then lets shoe em what we think then eh?"

Both of them start slashing their way threw the incoming soldiers.

[Shadowmaster]

"Idiots." Lyon says. "Lay down your weapons. I'm not your enemy. I'm clearly a Hylian." She draws her weapon, just in case. "There's no need for us to fight."

[Gee-chan]

"No!" yelled Landara, "Don't kill them!" However it was too late, all but two of the soldiers now lay dead on the floor. Gritting her teeth and clutching her how, she dashed towards the two remaining men, smashing one of them over the head with her weapon. Behind her, the other made to stab with his sword, but stopped, quivering as he crumpled to the ground. Still in his bed, Merk let his hand drop as a glow faded from it. That spell had taken more out of him than he had anticipated, he still needed to finish recovering his strength.

"We should get out as quickly as possible." said Merk, "I know it sounds heartless but we can't save everybody. We need to get ourselves to safety." He slowly gout up and out of his bed. "I need to get to castle town. I'm going to get to the bottom of this."

"Sounds like a plan" said Landara, "Merk come with me, we need to collect the others in our group. We'll get Lyon and Alana, you two go find Garath and Naarsa."



"Silence!" yelled the man, "I shall hear none of your lies!"

He holds his claymore in both hands as he makes a wide sweep aimed to hit Lyon, and strong enough to cut a man in half.

[Shadowmaster]

Damn... Lyon thinks. She rolls back to avoid the strike and jumps back to her feet, out of his range. She then leaps forward to strike at his hands, hopefully making him drop the blade.
