[ hostages saved, gut eating monsters beaten, all is well! yay!

however if in the lobby things aren't as well as one would hope. as there stands one very bloody man, looking both confused and annoyed, don't mind the sword and shield which are equally as bloody. he was just killing nasties you see ]

Maker's breath! What just happened?!

[ instantly he glares over at his companion, considering she is the only one here with him it is OBVIOUSLY all her fault ]

You did this didn't you? I knew it! I knew one day you were going to do... something... horrible.

You're in luck then, mongrel -- you've both been transported to Cair Paradisa, a living castle that grants your innermost desire at whatever cost it deems equivalent to it.

It was not the witch that brought you.

1/2

[regulare.livejournal.com]

Well that makes everything so much better--

[regulare.livejournal.com]

Wait. Did you just call me mongrel? [ takes such offense sdhjgfd, he doesn't smell like the dog does ]

[heroisms.livejournal.com]

Well, one would have to know a man's name to call him anything but, don't you agree?

[regulare.livejournal.com]

Yes, but you could have picked something better than mongrel. That hurts my poor feelings.

[ a pause ]

And it is Alistair.

[heroisms.livejournal.com]

A man with feelings. _{[ He laughs. ]} How novel.

Gilgamesh.

[regulare.livejournal.com]

I like to think I am full of surprises.

[ eyebrow raise ] That is quite the name.

[heroisms.livejournal.com]

It is a name befitting a King; thus, I am named Gilgamesh.

What significance does Alistair hold?

[regulare.livejournal.com]

[ visibly winces at the word king, does not like that word at all ]

It sounded better than Herbert.

[heroisms.livejournal.com]

Herbert.

[regulare.livejournal.com]

Wild dogs aren't the best at naming children.

[heroisms.livejournal.com]

It would appear so.

[regulare.livejournal.com]

Anyway, what were you saying about a living palace? [ this is important and completely derails his 'it is all morrigan's fault' theory ]

[heroisms.livejournal.com]

_{[ He rolls his eyes, gesturing airily. ]}

The castle is alive. I'm not sure how they've managed it, but they treat the thing as if it were a breathing, thinking creature we are all trapped inside of.

[regulare.livejournal.com]

[ disbelieving look, kinda expecting him to be joking about this... oh but he knows humor... and this is not humorous... ] You're serious about this.

[heroisms.livejournal.com]

I did not believe much it either, until I began to read the journals themselves.

[regulare.livejournal.com]

[ it is then he discovers the journal that was stashed in his armor--gold and shiny, once belonging to the king sob--taking it out and squinting at it a little ]

Well what do you know, a magic book. Now this is something you don't see everyday.

[befician.livejournal.com]

[She's wandered back from her exploration just in time to catch that name, and she's completely amused by it]

I would not waste your time. He will not see reason.

[heroisms.livejournal.com]

_{[ He laughs, a bit. ]}

I'm slowly beginning to see that.

[befician.livejournal.com]

I will, however. [She tilts her head curiously, she won't take too much offence, if he doesn't feel like giving her more information. She's capable enough to find it on her own]

[heroisms.livejournal.com]

And what would you like to know, newcomer?

[befician.livejournal.com]

[A pause] You stated that this palace is alive. I wish to know how and...The extent of the power it holds.

[heroisms.livejournal.com]

You may have to seek another for your answers, woman. I've neither the patience nor the curiosity to test the limits of this place.

From what I've gathered, whatever you wish for will have its equivalence taken from you in whatever way the castle deems necessary.

[befician.livejournal.com]

A true pity. [Well dude, that makes you kind of useless. How are you expecting to leave if you don't test things out first? /sigh]

And so if you wish for nothing? There is no cost?

[heroisms.livejournal.com]

They say we lose something upon arrival. It could be a memory, an ability; whatever you may have held dear.
