Final Fantasy RP Chapter 4

Extra info: After Fein collapsed N'Revat withdrew Ciaran and sent forward other generals to deal with a resistance that was quickly gaining members. They have trouble finding them though, as the troops are mostly in tune with the land and the animals.

One month ago Ripel, after a small "talk" with General Ciaran, had agreed to a mission in exchange for the lives of his friends, and for some reason, a N'Revat white mage and a thief that had appeared during the conversation. Now he was in Preos, the N'Revat capitol, and just was posted today (through Ciaran's influence) as one of the king's (who also happened to be named Preos) guards. The aforementioned white mage (as part of the deal) was his guide around the city. As for the thief, he and Blyr had decided to come along, unwilling to leave their friends behind.

At the moment Ripel meeting with Ciaran in the general's mansion going over the details of what they were supposed to do once again just before he reported for duty at the castle. Carolina, the white mage, was there too, seeing as she was now Ripel's guide, but she wasn't allowed to know the real purpose of the mission. The others, Blyr and the thief, Ark, were supposed to wait in a room as they had no real part in the mission.

Carolina stood quietly in the large room while the two men discussed many different things, most of which were dealing with matters concerning what Ripel was supposed to do. Heck if she knew what all it was. All she knew was that from now until she was told otherwise, she was to be Ripel's guide to anything and everything in N'revat.

Oh well. At least it was better than anything that might have happened because of the whole trespassing on the airship deal.

She covered up a small yawn, quickly shaking her head to wake herself up and look at least halfway decent in front of General Ciaran, after he had been the one to allow her to accompany Ripel, though it had been Ripel's idea in the first place.

It's kinda weird that he'd just ask someone he doesn't even know to help him. Oh well. I'll play tour guide if it means staying alive.

Arc looked down from the rafters. He absent-mindedly was flipping a throwing knife around.

Mentally, he laughed at them. They thought they'd found all of his stuff. What they hadn't known was how easy some of it was to just remake. And they'd also thought that they'd set up a fool proof guard on the room. Heating ducts were wonderful things, especially since he could now get back to the room in about 20 seconds flat.

He watched the general. blab on and on in between, and sometimes during, bites of chicken that couldn't be healthy.

Would it be so hard for them to just say what they want to say?

Krylo · 01-10-2004, 07:08 PM

Jareth stood with his arms crossed behind his back looking over a map of the castle as he discussed his plans with Ripel occasionally pointing to a place on the map to illustrate a point.

Ciaran spoke in hushed tones, nearly whispering to be sure Carolina didn't hear, to the blue mage who stood near him. "After breakfast the target should be here," Ciaran pointed to a place on the map before continuing, "which has only one entrance or exit and it will only be guarded by one person. This would be the best time. Afterward..." He traced a finger along a quick route to the castle stables, which, unfortunately involved passing a few guards on the way. "You're going to have to hope you aren't found out until you can make it here..." His finger tapped on one of the stalls in the stables as his sentenced finished. The volume of Ciaran's voice then increased and he looked directly at the White Mage standing against the furthest wall, where he had directed her to wait earlier. "Come over here." He waved her over to the table.

OOC: I'm in Preos too. Is it now one month after 3? I geuss so

Elyse (I don't know about Luce) had travelled into Preos. She was walking down the street and thinking. She was smiling. No one knew, not even Luce, that she was once again in her homeland. Her grandfather, had been on the side of N'revat in the last war. Saddly he was forced to join Rab after an interrogation. There he had quikly risen in ranks and was soon an owner of a mansion. Her father had grown acustomed to Rab. In her childohood, Elyse heard the story of her heritage from her father. She heard it only once, but it was burned into her memory. She knew, she wanted to live in N'revat. But first, shed have to establish a new mansion and swich sides. Half was done. Her smile grew. She walked along and into the office of a landmass seller.

Blyr was sitting on a couch, looking really relaxed. He didn't really know why they were here, but he knew it had something to do with the deal Ripel made with Cieran a few weeks ago. After that, the N'revat were awefully nice to him, even though Blyr made quite a few holes in their (Elyse's) airship. I think they're so afraid of the general, they don't want me to complain...but still, this doesn't seem right...

What am I fighting for now? Blyr thought. Well, I guess I am not exactly fighting right now, am I? But still...what cause do I have? All I have now is the clothes on my back, my sword, and my chocobo. Who knows what happened to my village... He adjusted his position on the couch. Well, I guess I'm just fighting for myself...and my comrades... He sighed. Cheer up, things aren't as bad as they seem.

He started to whistle to himself, wondering what would happen next...

ooc-As a precaution the target is simply referred to a target. It could be anything, a noble, a safe, anything.

He hated to have dragged the others into this. He was about to do a something he would rather not, and he didn't want anyone to be involved when they didn't need to be. However, it was the only way to save his friends, and he knew what Ciaran would have done to Carolina and Ark had he not done something.

Ciaran didn't seem the type to believe in mercy or light punishment. He saw the man as ruthless, quick, and efficient, and would've had dealt a sentence that was quite like him. Though he didn't know the two at the time he didn't feel like just letting them die, no matter what they had done.

Shaking these thoughts out of his head he focused at the task at hand. He was here for a briefing. "General, can you go over once more on exactly how I'm going to get close to the target. I know several of your troops have been temporarily placed to guard it, but only the king's most loyal troops are allowed close.

"Recognition isn't much of a problem, I could simply say I defected. Carolina here can also say you're having her watch over me in case I am not totally loyal, and as an extra precaution we'll have official notices from you.

"Still, unless you were there yourself we would not be allowed close enough to the target to complete the mission."

Darth SS · 01-10-2004, 07:22 PM

There was a light banging sound as Ark scurried out of the vent and back into the room. "I give up. They just keep rattling on and on and on. Oh, and there was a mouse that had been crawling all over me." He sighed, and plopped down on a chair.
