Kriska's Village

[bedevere]

Sadly yes, your highness. However, I know first hand that resurrection is possible, though draining and dangerous to those involved in the ritual.

I would imagine others have had this idea already of course, especially since I know Aratain was summoned here, and he performed the first resurrection that I ever heard of. Along with the help of some others, of course.

Note that before you get any ideas, I would STRONGLY encourage you to plan a ritual very carefully before you try one. I haven't recovered from that last one, about a year later, and I was only a minor participant, helping to bring back a fairly minor hero, no offence intended to the individual. Threan was quite powerful, so I'd imagine that to maintain the balance, even more would be asked for in return.

Of course, I know little of magic beyond what I have witnessed, and what any intelligent mind can figure out for themselves.

*She looks down at the bush that she is standing in and when she looks up her cloths have changed and they are now all black. A band is on her arm.*

"I know the dangers of rituals how do you think I ended up like this? I have seen Erathil do many but most of the time they seemed to go pritty well. I have also seen Aratain do a ritual when he lost alot of limbs and I ended up unconsious on the floor. I was not in it but outside it. I now have to go into a ritual circle to change back to how I should be and possibly also to get back to Pathway. I will consider it but I really should speak with father about it all first."

*She looks over to Kerrigan.*

[bedevere]

Rituals would be easy enough to perform, if you had the endless power of the well of eremine to call on. I have seen first hand what that can accomplish. Without that well, the architects of Dvarni would have never have been able to construct the city.

Good luck in your ritual though. I dislike going into them myself, but I know they're needed on occasion.

[Gumboots]

*She nods*

"Well its that or I never become solid again which means that at the moment I cant be hurt by anything. Which can be an advantage but at the same time I need my more solid form to carry on my duties efficiently."

[bedevere]

Indeed. Though I doubt you are immune to all forms of harm. The balance is an important part of the world, and such power would upset it greatly. You are more likely simply very hard to hurt.

After all, we thought the midari invulnerable for a time, then the glooms, or soul scourges as I am told they are also called. I wonder what the next unkillable foe will be...

[Gumboots]

*She looks serious for a moment with the thought of Erathil or the Haran going through her mind.*

"We will never know, I hope that I dont get hurt otherwise Aratain may just eat my soul!"

[quillkeeper]

"Someone mention my name?"

*Aratain walks round the corner.*

"If I could feel anything I think my ears would be burning."

[bedevere]

Ah, you are here too. I guessed you would be.


I suppose you are in the same predicament as her highness? Just before you vanished the second time, you said something of a watery village, so I came looking. The heroes left such an obvious trail, it was too easy.

Anyway, I am sure he won't eat you, your highness, unless you say you dont mind. I am sure he will tell you himself, but his respect for his friends is too great.

[Gumboots]

*Zemilia jumps and seems to float at the top of her jump, she looks down a little startled not sure what to do next.*

"Umm I suppose he would not eat my soul as he has sworn not to eat me."

*She looks at Aratain.*

"Please do not eat Threan just yet he may be brought back from the dead via a ritual circle."

[quillkeeper]

*Reaches up and pulls Zemila back down to the ground.*

"Please find out quickly if it is possible, in four days I will no onger be able to carry out his final wishes if it will not be possible."

[bedevere]

*Pure hypothesis, but with part of his soul held in the spear, it might act as an anchor to the rest of his soul. Also, I have no idea how potions might affect the soul, when the body has died. Possibly potions of spiritual restoration might preserve him for a short time.

Of course, if part of him remains, and can be spoken to, then you could ask him directly what he would prefer done.

[Gumboots]

*Zemilia reaches out and puts her arm through Kerrigan and touches the spear.*

"Father? What are we to do?"

[arkaus]

*threan voice is heard in the head of all those nearby*

"my wish's are known to you all it is not for me to say what must be done it's a decision for the living"

[quillkeeper]

*Comtemplates the words that run trough his mind.*

"I will wait until the last minute, if we have no news by then, and I am corporeal and able to touch the body I will fufill what has been asked of me."

[bedevere]

*Nathaniel nods*

Makes sense, certainly. As long as you can sense when the time is drawing near, though I trust it will be sorted out, one way or another, by then.
