Still she couldn't help to let a few giggles escape from her mouth as Greg's introduced himself. Sure it had been a fine speech but for her it sure sounded as formal as if she was watching a Superman movie.<br/><br/>So the last champions died at the mall? Jessica must have misheard but she still could figure out what could have happened to their predecesors. Let's just hope this 'mall' doesn't prove to be equally lethal for them as them.<br/>[/quote]<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=261064.msg12894571#msg12894571">Quote from: AndyZ on 09-01-2017, 20:57:03</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">At the Banquet Hall, Vara decided to ask a simple question, "How many among you of your own people want to gain these sorts of powers and are denied them by your god?"<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>"Whatever do you mean? Gain these sorts of powers?" Amphelice asked seriously.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=261064.msg12895341#msg12895341">Quote from: Zaer Darkwail on 10-01-2017, 03:19:12</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">As the elder answered his questions he nods and replies; "I see, so for training and discovery on our new abilities we need talk with the priests plus any questions regarding your god then. Now, excuse me for a coming barrage of questions but I think these are important to us to know;<br/><br/>Where from folks of Newgate come from? I heard this community and town is just five years old. What was reason for you move here and establish a trade town in this location? Overall want know history of the Newgate, in brief version, up to point the first champions arrived to aid you.<br/><br/>I also heard you trade things to capital. What is your goods what you sell and what you buy from capital? Did some champions travel to capital to escort merchants and back here? Also heard champions who left town had never returned....did they die or have not simply returned at all?<br/><br/>Also I have seen some of us have taken unusual physical traits or have non-human features, from our world there is no other inteligent humanoid races besides humans. So can you give a brief list and short description of sentient humanoid races which are civilized and not monsters, so we do not mistake a civilized resident of Newgate for a monster just because of appearances.<br/><br/>Lastly have any champions misbehaved? Broken laws or commited crimes and what was done or happened to them when they did those things?<br/><br/>Also I assume besides material needs met, champions have their own residence in the town? Or do they sort camp around in the area?" The promise of bath, clothes and sweet smell of food invites him just give up asking further but his hunger for information is greater than his need for food yet. Overall there is lots of questions in mind for him but he thinks these are important to immediately for everyone to know.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>"My, you are spirited," Amphelice remarked. "Most Champions wait until the Feast for most of these questions to be answered. After all, most do not appreciate standing naked or half naked before us."<br/><br/>She paused for a moment and took each question in turn. "The history of Newgate is simple. Ackaedes informed the priests that this area was safe for settlement. So we came from the capitol, Adyna. Champions are always sent to the outer settlements for protection. We do our humble work in Ackaedes name. There is not much else to tell. And yes, Champions have often escorted goods to and from the capitol. They need to eat and we need their tools and goods. We do know of some Champions that did disappear there. But, since Ackaedes provided new ones to replace them, we have not questioned it much further and assumed that they perished."<br/><br/>When she came to the question as to civilized sentient beings, she put her finger to her mouth thoughtfully, "I suppose a lot depends on what you call a civilization and what you deem to be sentient."<br/><br/>"As to Champions who have misbehaved.... In what way? Certainly we have had some that have been less willing to undertake their position in society but they usually die before something serious happens. But, yes, you will have your own residence. All your basic needs will be handled."<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=261064.msg12896376#msg12896376">Quote from: Kathyan on 10-01-2017, 17:12:56</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">The High priest? The name Ackaedes came back to Jessica as they referred to him as their god but Jessica didn't say a word yet and the whole she limited herself to inspect the city and then the town hall they were taken to.<br/><br/>Everyone started asking and interrogating these high priests but then it was Timothy's turn, he sure talked a lot, but indeed were very interesting question the ones he asked, she would say he was the best suited to be leader of the groups despite what everyone though about Captain America, even if he thought he was a god.<br/><br/>Now Jessica did wanted to eat already not because she was starving although she was a bit hungry but because it intrigued her what kind of food and drinks they would be served while also wondering if they would get cool medieval clothes like the robes Amphelice had, or perhaps something even cooler. Still Tim inquiring made her forgot about those stuff for a moment and Jessica moved forward and stood next to Timothy surrounding his neck with her arm and leaning on him letting as he joined his barrage of questions, "I'd like to know more about the monsters attacking the city. Are we just to sit here waiting for them to come once and again?"<br/><br/>"Where do they come from and even more important, why? Do you happen to know what's is the reason behind all this attacks and killing?, I mean we should find out why they keep coming here, once we've been given some weapons of course."<br/><br/>"Maybe Ackaedes can guide you and and enlighten you and help you find an answer to any of this" Jessica was a bit ironical on this but perhaps they wouldn't notice or perphas they wouldn't care, still she continued in a bit more intriguing tone this time, "for I think there must be a reason for the monsters to keep coming, right? do you happen to have something they want? Maybe this city is right in middle of their territory or  perhaps all you did was just pissing someone off really really bad?" <br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>"We hope that the gnolls don't come again. They are monsters. It is hard to predict their behavior but we lost all our Champions, so now would be a ripe time for them to come. Hopefully you can learn quickly. We don't know where they come from but it would be appreciated if you all found out. Your weapons and training will come. Patience, dear."<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=261064.msg12896730#msg12896730">Quote from: Vreski on 10-01-2017, 20:02:48</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Kristina followed everyone to town, managing to keep herself flaccid on the way there, even with some people almost naked and finding everyone to be attractive. When she finally noticed the bulge in Vara's briefs she felt relieved to not be the only one with the strange condition. When they got to town her problem of not being able to keep it down came back.<br/><br/>In the town hall she listened intently to what everyone had to say. They were all asking very good questions, some questions that she had herself. She couldn't think of any original questions herself. She was still somewhat distracted by her condition. Eventually though she raised her hand and waited for Amphelice's attention. "Uh, which way to the bath? I'd love to get cleaned up and get some clothes."<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>"Very well. Your attendants shall come forthwith." She clapped and ten young men and women entered through a hidden door. "They will take care of you from here. We shall see you at the Feast. With that, the Elders departed.
