Eleven Moons

Rhuhael · 10-04-2004, 08:42 PM

This RP takes place at the end of the Renaissance era in the bustling city of Venice. Behind the mask of the happy aristocratic society lives a devilish game of houses. The mechanics of treachery, debauchery, murder, and crime churn in the dark corners of the city of rivers.

Below all this hides an even darker maze of secrets. Da Vinci's Illuminati dabblings uncovered things not meant for mortals to know. Knowledge of what lies beyond the veil of mortal conscience has been breached and now these nightmares swim in the murky depths of the canals.

How long can the city sustain itself this way? Eventually the truth must surface to the public and then hell will break lose on the world about it. Be prepared.

Seth Ormani stumbled through the halls of the library and finally found the door. Grumbling he fumbled with the ornate ring and pulled the door open. A bright shaft of light streamed through into the dusty refuge, slicing through the shadows. Spectacular, simply spectacular. Another night tossed away at the library. The curse of the scholar I suppose.

He walked out into the square. What little mist hadn't burned off yet swirled about his feet as he walked over to the fountain and pulled out a copper from his blue velvet jacket. He smiled and tossed it into the waters.

As soon as he turned and left, two or three beggars scurried out and plunged after the coin. A particularly surly one, all in rags emerged triumphant with the coin. Filth

Elizabeth Lafayette kept her arms crossed as she walked up towards the man and watched the beggars fight for the coin. She was wearing a beggar's cloak just as the other had in order to hide her identity. The hood was up, covering her face by a shadow. "Here's a quesiton to ponder.... Can a wish really come true, if the source is stolen and used for other needs?" She was quite bored and looked to this new place for some entertainment.

Seth grumbled and gave his jacket a futile tug, attempting to smooth out the fabric before composing himself and turning to her with a hollow smile. "And what exactly would you have me do about it? I'm not about to shoot them over some silly wish. Anyway, in this town the coin is about as ephemeral as the wish I made with it. I only wanted a damned cup of tea anyway." He finished, his smile turning to a disappointed frown.

"Arthur never opens the shop before noon-time, so I suppose it'll have to stay as a wish."

She paused for a moment and shook her head laughing. "A cup of tea? You can not be serious... of all the things to wish for. World peace, rid of disease, rid of corruption... the perfect utopia... and you wish for a cup of tea. Someone seems to have his priorities out of check." She walked closer to the fountain and sat on the stone wall of it. She stuck her hand in the water and started to swirl it a bit...

Rhuhael · 10-04-2004, 09:21 PM

Seth smirked and walked up behind her. He leaned in close and whispered in her ear, as if to impart something of great importance."And it seems that you have no knowledge of exactly how many disease ridden beggars have gone swimming for coin in that fountain in the last hour."

He patted her shoulder gently, smiling far too and then began walking down a side street. "Welcome to Venice m'lady."

She looks into the water and raises a brow. She quickly wipes her hands on her cloak and starts running towards Seth. "Wait! You've yet to tell me your name!" She stops before she gets to close to him. "Venice... Venice, Italy? Is that where you said i am?"

Rhuhael · 10-04-2004, 09:34 PM

He smirked and then turned back to her. "My name is Seth Ormani, and yes I said that you're in Venice, Italy. Although I find it hard to swallow that you don't know the name of the current center of the country. It's practically the only reason anyone from the outside comes here anymore."

usa-ko · 10-04-2004, 09:41 PM

She smiled "Well, sir, I've been many places." She walks closer to him and looks up into his eyes, pulling her hood back. She reaches her hand up to his lips and taps her finger on his bottom lip, she then giggles and runs away, back into the dark alley... with his coin purse.

Rhuhael · 10-05-2004, 09:34 PM

Seth smiled and ran after her. He reached, calmly under his coat and pulled out a long stiletto blade. He balanced it on his fingertips for a moment and then flicked it at his coing purse which she was holding.

The glittering gold and silver fell to the ground, clattering all over the cobblestones. Seth laughed and walked up to the pile of gold and silver. "Going without even saying good-bye eh?"
