Test Of Faith. (Completed Event)

Unread post by DM_Absolution »

Image
Images flood your mind, whatever was occupying your mind earlier vanishes in a split second. The images are so intense and fast paced that you struggle to breathe, Your body feels faint, as if you are going to pass out.

A lithè Illythiiri female wanders in the tunnels just outside Sshamath, she carries a large bastard slung across her back. She is clad in a simple dark robe, she moves purposefully towards the entrance to Sshamath, the guards merely giving her a nod as she passes by.

You feel a sharp pain in your head, suddenly your vision in the dream focuses and you can suddenly see through her robe, at the holy symbol of Eilistraee she has around her neck.

As the female wanders down the spiraling descent to Sshamath you hear a loud sensual laughter, it starts quite faint, as it is very far away, but then it comes closer.
There is something about this laughter that frightens even you to the core, but at the same time it is so seductive that you feel an urge to discover who it comes from.

The Eilistraeen wanders down the descent towards Sshamath, in no hurry and carefully inspecting the city below. Suddenly she let's out a fierce scream as thousands of small spiders appear around her, and begins crawling over and under her robe. Within mere seconds she falls to her knees as the spiders soon covers most of her body, all of them biting and begining to spin their web around her.

A sharp pain enters your mind, it is so strong that you collapse on the ground in front of you, and you can feel something coming out of your ears. After a close inspection you see that you have been bleeding out of your ears, just as you are about to recover from it your mind gets flooded again with more images.

The Illythiiri from your previous images is now in an alley in Sshamath, talking to another female. For some reason you get a strong feeling that she is follower of the Dark maiden as well, you cannot explain it but you know deep down that it is the truth.

You hear parts of their conversation, and their mission immediately becomes clear to you, they are here to recruit and convert Illythiiri to their faith. And judging from others that suddenly come into view, they are succeeding.

After the images fade, you get a strong feeling what the purpose was behind the "dream". -She- is testing you, and you know the price for failure.

Lilith hissed in anger as she came to, again her mind was assaulted!

What was this then?
Did the Queen finally wish the vithing dancers dead, or just..removed?

A vicious snarl escaped her lips as she decided to find out, personally.

I know My liege is your Right hand! I do not care! He saved me not you! Your followers only beat and mock me! I will get stronger ! I will not..... *will falters*

*Rises and runs to the place he has made his home, his head about to split*

After having expierenced the vision, the Yathrin Valaklith gets back to her feet, heavily breathing, not able to stand without the help of her walking stick for a few minutes. Back to her senses and realizing what just happened, she whispers in a low tone.

"Xas, my queen. Usstan will stop those from the doings. Usstan will show who is to fear. They will pay."

//Alright, i got internet back, but i have not had enough time to prepare for this event so i will have to postpone it to the weekend. It annoys me that i had to delay this event twice now, but sometimes things go against you, and i was already sick yesterday and friday so feeling a bit under the weather.

//So far it looks like it will be on this upcoming sunday 9'th of desember at 14:30 (GMT/UTC +1 time)

//Just wanted to note that i will allow favored souls for this event as well, but they -have- to worship Lolth.

You suddenly find yourself walking down the streets of Sshamath, it appears to be like any other day but for some reason there are no people about, you are completely alone. As you continue walking down an alley between two large constructions you suddenly notice that you are not in control of where you are going, it is as if someone else is controlling your movements.

After a short walk you find yourself at the end of the blind alley, staring into the wall of a building. Suddenly you hear someone walking up behind you, as you turn around you spot a tall lithè drow female, she is naked and wields a huge sword, her voice is haunting and eerie and she sings out the words rather than talking.


A rightful place awaits you in the realms above,
in the land of the great light.
Come in peace and live beneath the sun again where trees
and flowers grow.
As she finishes the verse, she charges towards you, sword held high and ready to strike. You suddenly find yourself back in your bed, you notice there is a another drow standing at the foot of your bed. As you look at the drow standing in your room, you notice that she is impossibly beautiful, but at the same time something about her makes you afraid, and you get the feeling that she might kill you at any time. The drow does not say anything, She merely lifts her hand and points outside the window of your room, and towards a round silver shaped orb, the moon? As you realize what it is, you wake up.
