[b]Well, I'd be lying if I said that wasn't the first time I was brought back.[/b]
*He looks at Mortar.*
Guilty
English
-
Well, if I go up that mountain to meditate, I'll remember your face, so I won't kill you if I see you near mortar's shack/house
-
It's a house, not a shack.
-
-
Yeah. So, you learn anything new?
-
A few things. There is a way of reviving people with darkness. They are fighting fit afterwards, but are contracted to a demon. And removing the contract involves killing the demon. Which is gutwrenchingly painful for the risen
-
Yeah, I wouldn't like to do that, since I'm already part demon
-
Well, I'm not sure if I can pick the contractor, but it would be a good way to keep him alive *points at wit*
-
[b]Me? A demon? God, no. Id rather MORTAR Bring me back, he at least doesn't turn you to a demon.[/b] Yeah, that's true, I don't know why I'd want someone to become a demon
-
You don't become a demon, you are kept alive by them. The other downside is they set the price
-
[b] Yeah, I'll stick with Mortar.[/b]
-
Fair enough. But discussions aside, there are 2 reasons I came back. 1) to join the dojo 2) to learn more about this * pulls out a 2 inch crystal, it has a metallic luster* This is what appears to be a sample of an ore that forms all through that mountain. And it has some very special properties.
-
May I see that? I looks familiar, but I don't know where. And a lieutenant should be around here somewhere...
-
Well, from what I learnt about on the mountain, this seems to have the ability of amplifying angelic/light powers. For example, stab me in the chest
-
Umm... okay? *Mortar quickly feels around on his back and pulls out an icy blue knife. He stabs you in the chest, and it seems very cold, your body begins freezing up*
-
Okay, now watch this. *I hold the gem near the wound, and cast a healing light on the gem. The gem is enveloped in a blinding light for a few seconds, the light fades. And the wound is closed, with no scar. The freezing effect also disappeared.*
-
Interesting... I could have used that when fighting the Soul of Cinder. OH, I wonder how it would react with Valhite.
-
Well, as far as I know, it only works with light abilities; but that was not why I took interest in the gem. Can anyone summon a very disposable demon or being of darkness?
-
Well I can do this... *Mortar forms two identical shadow figures of himself* And Valhite is a metal found in postmortemlike places, such as an Underworld, a heaven, Valhalla. Guess which one it was found in first?
-
Interesting. But let me show you why I took a liking to this ore *I cast a purifying light on the gem, the gem is lit ablaze with purifying fire, I flick the gem at the shadow clone's head, the gem hits and passes through it's head. The clone starts to disintegrate from the fire from the point of the wound. The clone disintegrates into purified sparks in 1.5 seconds*
-
Damn. Remind me to not -blam!- with you. *The other shadow clone hides behind Mortar* Get out of there.
-
Well, imagine this ore as the edge of a blade, coarsing with purifying light.
-
Yeah, I got that
-
There are a few problems though 1) I need access to blacksmiths 2) I need more of this ore that is of better quality. The better ore rests deep in the vast ravines and gorges of the mountain. Which are home to monsters far too strong for any one man/woman to handle. I wanted to take a team down there Both require dojo membership
-
Well 1) we can give you temporary housing here, plenty of time to visit the blacksmith, and 2) you should ask a dojo Lieutenant. I wish I was one but, unfortunately no.
-
Well I remember tesuto saying that membership was required to access dojo services. Besides, I can find a lieutenant. But I think we should name this ore. How does amplifite sound?
