01[22:08] <04Quicksilver> 7Okeydoke then! Let me just get this thing i made earlier. 01[22:09] <04Quicksilver> 7Several hours have passed since you set out from the town, refraining from flying to conserve your strength. The sun is now beginning to set in the east as Celly calls it quits for today, however visibility is still good. 01[22:09] <04Quicksilver> We rejoin our intrepid pegasi as they trek through the woods just to the east of the storm, coming closer to the source they are investigating. Wind whips through the tree branches around them and disturbs the pine needles that litter the ground, kicking them up and forcing everyone to shield themselves with their wings, rudimentary defence against the sharp spines. You press on however, and soon near the edge of the forest, the tree canopy above clearing and giving you a view of what lies ahead. 01[22:09] <04Quicksilver> 7 01[22:09] <04Quicksilver> The storm above you is... massive, covering a vast distance over the plateau, it must be at least a kilometre wide...if pony measurements are the same as back on earth. 01[22:09] <04Quicksilver> The winds are calmer here, its like you have wandered into the eye of the storm, unsettling as you watch the clouds swirl above you and hear thundering booms that vibrate throughout your entire form. Lights flash and crackle throughout the black clouds, not striking the ground however, and just making the clouds light up like fireworks on an overcast day. Several of the thunderclouds glow with an eerie purple light, making the entire scene look like some kind of science fiction film, though what was fiction back on earth is very uncertain here. 01[22:09] <04Quicksilver> In the distance on top of the plateau ahead, the group can see something coloured among the grey and black, but only if they squint their eyes and peer through stray clouds that angrily flash nearer to ground level, seemingly apart from the wall of black that hovers above. 01[22:09] <04Quicksilver> 7 01[22:09] <04Quicksilver> The group is now stood at the treeline of the woods, facing the sheer cliffs of the seven stones plateau, with the wall of black above them. [BEGIN] 01[22:10] <04Quicksilver> 7Colours i hate you 05[22:10] * Rain_Drop (~FourCanno@mo-184-6-72-180.dhcp.embarqhsd.net) has joined #FourCannonPnP [22:10] <03Rain_Drop> [:I faaack long travel times and needing to run errnads T.T] [22:11] <15GoldenTouch_> >as quick says begin 01[22:11] <04Quicksilver> 7This is just to taunt me isnt it. :< [22:11] <09Chinook> [That timing though] [22:12] <03Rain_Drop> [wait did i just get on in time?] 09[22:12] * GoldenTouch_ calls through the wind looking up into the sky, he feels like he's seen this in a sci fi movie "Yeah! Definitly not lightning!" 09[22:12] * Weathervane shudders with each eruption of sound as she follows along the rest of the group to the source of the storm, wondering why the hell she had to fill in this spot at the last second as the unworldly glowing cloud looms overhead. 09[22:13] * Chinook shields his brow with a hoof and peers upwards. "Y'know if it wasn't for the fact that we're heading into that, this'd be really pretty to look at." 09[22:13] * Phoenix_Down looks up, unable to help but laugh as the massive storm creeps along the skyline "haha, this is crazy!" [22:13] <03Rain_Drop> [er can i just jump in? i still had a cow to bury and im waiting on mum to say when to...] 01[22:14] <04Quicksilver> 7[ehhhhhh I JUST gave your spot to Weather... go bury your cow Rain...

Go Cannonbolts!] 01[22:17] <04Quicksilver> 7A shudder of thunder booms from above, making the ground shake slightly as the group moves onwards, Chinook can spot several flashes of light from within as he looks up, however the wall of black looks pretty much impenetrable, and very dangerous. 05[22:17] * Strong_Metal (~Waveform@cpe-24-58-58-149.twcny.res.rr.com) has joined #FourCannonPnP [22:18] <09Chinook> 01Urge to build upon IC reasons not to go adventuring and give my spot to Rain, catch up on the sleep I'll need for GM'ing tomorrow....rising...] [22:18] <15GoldenTouch_> "Well! This isn't gonna solve it self ge-" his words are dulled out by the lightning but he acts like everyone still heard them "Am I right!" he squints his eyes at the wall of nigger and tries to find somewhere from below, if not they'll have to go from the top in [22:18] <09Chinook> "So....what? We're supposed to fly into that?" He says, scanning the group. [22:19] <15busy_tide> [Lightning? Can I come? :3] [22:19] <15GoldenTouch_> [yeah, lets use tide as a lightning rod] 09[22:19] * Phoenix_Down squints his eyes "wouldn't it be easier to go from up above Golden?" 05[22:20] * busy_tide is now known as High_Tide 09[22:20] * Weathervane could almost feel herself jump from the sound, if not from her own will but from the sheer pulse of the rumbling ground beneath her. She shakes it off and looks up to the black wall ahead, wincing as it doesn't look to forgiving. "Yeeeaaah... the more we can do to avoid going in it, the better..." 05[22:20] * Starfire (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) has joined #FourCannonPnP 01[22:20] <04Quicksilver> 7The group comes ever closer to the sheer cliff face of the plateau, bare rock presenting an obstacle for most ponies, but not really much for pegasi. Above it the clouds look slightly less black, and less thick and... wall like. [22:21] <09Chinook> [/me fires up rainy mood] [22:21] <15GoldenTouch_> "Precisesly what im thinking, common, lets try and get up before it's directly over us" he does however spot right where quick describes "Or, our ticket in is right there!" [22:22] <09Chinook> "That's our opening, ladies." Chinook takes a deep breath and springs off the ground, fluttering his way into the air before looking back and waiting for the rest. 02[22:23] * Starfire_ (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) Quit (Ping timeout: 186 seconds) 09[22:23] * GoldenTouch_ is right along with chinook, taking a running start before pushing off the ground, flapping his wings soaring upward with the group [22:23] <12High_Tide> [aww no fair :<] [22:23] <15GoldenTouch_> [sorry, masterrace only quest] [22:23] <09Chinook> [Shoulda rolled pegasus m8. You had a choice] 09[22:24] * Weathervane follows along and flaps her way up the side of the cliff, keeping her distance from the side of the cloud as much as she can. 09[22:24] * Chinook readjusts his goggles and tightens a few straps here and there to make sure he's as streamlined as can be. The gear clinks around as he hovers but he manages. 09[22:25] * GoldenTouch_ feels this is nessisaary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siwpn14IE7E 01[22:26] <04Quicksilver> 7As the pegasi sweep up the face of the cliff, the sunlight gradually grows brighter and more pronounced, you seem to be at the very edge of the /stormfront/ where the clouds move steadily outwards, each one straying on its own and angrily shooting lightning as if Derpy was bouncing on it. Looking further into the blackness, the clouds gradually begin to look more thick and glowy, as if light is coming from within. [22:27] <09Chinook> "Four small ponies and one giant ass cloud! Hope at least one of you guys have got a plan!" He calls out, flying upwards at a steady speed. 09[22:27] * Phoenix_Down makes sure his goggles are on tight, keeping the howling winds and rain out of his face, looking towards the others "alright... we can't just start busting em up, there must be a source cause, right?" 02[22:27] * Starfire (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) Quit 05[22:27] * Starfire (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) has joined #FourCannonPnP [22:27] <09Chinook> "Because if we do-....." He stops himself and observes. "Damn...." is all he can muster. 09[22:28] * GoldenTouch_ knows his items are all secured and such "We need to find the center! They said it was just continuing to grow when they tried breaking it!" he calls out to the feathered friends 09[22:29] * Chinook points out towards the glowing core. "That's it over there?" [22:29] <15GoldenTouch_> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ec0XKhAHR5I 01[22:29] <04Quicksilver> 7The clouds stretch out for what seems like forever in front of the group, and getting above the storm looks like it will be difficult, the black tower sticking into the sky up to heights that might be hard to fly to.  Everyone observing the storm roll d20. [22:30] <15GoldenTouch_> !roll 1d20 because the GM is sexy [22:30] <15GameServ> 20 == 20 [22:30] <09Chinook> !roll d20 [22:30] <15GameServ> 2 == 2 01[22:30] <04Quicksilver> 7Compliments will get you everywhere~ [22:30] <15Phoenix_Down> !roll 1d20 [22:30] <15GameServ> 13 == 13 [22:30] <09Chinook> [Flatterer gets the 20...] 05[22:30] * Starfire_ (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) has joined #FourCannonPnP [22:30] <15GoldenTouch_> [~] 05[22:30] * Lamoff is now known as Lamon 09[22:31] * Weathervane peers over the field of black as she climbs in elevation, trying to find a good position over the center clouds but not quite finding the opportunity she needs to see over it.

Phoenix sees little but black ahead of him, however Golden and Weathervane both spot something in the distance, some way along the cloudfront to the west... colour among the black, but not the kind that is flashy and intermittant among the lightning, no. This colour looks more like... rainbow. 05[22:33] * Starfire_ is now known as Starfire 09[22:34] * Phoenix_Down shakes his head "ack, no hint of what's causing this at all... just black as far as the eye can see!" [22:34] <09Chinook> "Whoa!" He calls out, fluttering backwards to swerve the obstructive cloud. 02[22:35] * Starfire (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) Quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) 09[22:35] * GoldenTouch_ squints and makes sure he finds what he's looking for, swirving out of the way of chinooks swirv "I got something! Over here!" he speeds toward the rainbow colorred spot trying to make a slipstream for them to ride in after him 05[22:35] * Starfire (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) has joined #FourCannonPnP 09[22:36] * Chinook glances at the cloud and furrows his brow before taking a breath and following Gold. "Better than nothing...." He thinks to himself. 09[22:36] * Phoenix_Down doesn't see what Golden is talking about, but lets his wings level out anyways, turning and gliding after and a bit above Golden, trying to see what he was talking about 09[22:37] * Weathervane squints and puts a hoof over her eyes to try and get a better view of the glow. "Ugh... it's dense, but yeah... there's a little something there..." She shifts her position along the cliff face toward the right. "Kinda pretty, actually..." She cuts herself off from the thought as Golden zips past her, sighing and keeping up to the rest of the team. 01[22:38] <04Quicksilver> 7As Golden moves closer he finds himself among calm winds, face to face with a waterfall of rainbow colours that seem to bleed out of the clouds... a rainbow fall. The liquid cascades down onto the rocks below, making a pool on the ground below. Clouds of varying degrees of blackness surround the group in a sporadic and spotty pattern, slowly moving away from the centre of the storm. As the others catch up to Golden you can all observe the falls in all their glory. 05[22:39] * Starfire_ (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) has joined #FourCannonPnP 09[22:39] * Chinook elevates upwards and banks to the right of the group, somewhere between Phoe and Golden. He kicks his hindlegs out and hovers, catching his breath as he takes in the sight and lowers his goggles in amazement. "Would you look at that..." 01[22:39] <04Quicksilver> 7Do you head in for a closer look? 09[22:40] * Phoenix_Down blinks "oh wow this is pretty!" coasting down to get a better look at the rainbow falls [22:40] <15GoldenTouch_> [yes] 02[22:40] * Starfire (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) Quit (Ping timeout: 190 seconds) 09[22:40] * Chinook drifts along to get a closer look, keeping an eye on the other black clouds circling them. 09[22:41] * GoldenTouch_ takes in the beautiful sights, wishing he could take a picture, this is a codak moment..."Yeah it is...don't forget about the reason we're here though!" 09[22:42] * Weathervane gasps at the sight and covers her mouth, peeking in behind the other three as she catches glimpses of the source of colors. "Oh, wow... it just gets better!" She nonetheless breaks from her daydream and keeps within close proximity of the others, keeping her eyes out for interfering clouds and how the falls connect to the rest of the storm. 05[22:43] * Starfire (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) has joined #FourCannonPnP 01[22:43] <04Quicksilver> 7Chinook sees that the clouds are suddenly starting to change direction, moving in a circular pattern. Before he can react, the winds around you suddenly seem to shift and change, the calm current suddenly turns into gale force drafts, sweeping across the party and destabilising your flight. Carried by the forceful winds, you all are picked up and thrown wildly by the updraft, the air around you turning into somewhat of a tornado, but luckily carrying none of the deadly debris. You are caught in a vortex! Everyone roll d20! 04[22:43] <15GoldenTouch_> !roll 1d20 Quicksilver is ugly [22:43] <15GameServ> 7 == 7 [22:43] <09Chinook> !roll d20 shitfuckshitfuck [22:43] <15GameServ> 19 == 19 [22:44] <15GoldenTouch_> [yep, its the compliments] [22:44] <15Weathervane> !roll d20 [22:44] <15GameServ> 15 == 15 02[22:44] * Starfire_ (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) Quit (Ping timeout: 186 seconds) [22:46] <15Phoenix_Down> !roll 1d20 :3 [22:46] <15GameServ> 16 == 16 01[22:47] <04Quicksilver> 7Golden is ripped into the swirling current, carried around and around wildly, spinning out of control, Weathervane tries with all her might, but she too falls victim to the powerful whirling vortex, wings unable to cope with the gale force drafts that drag her inward, knocking her into Phoenix and destabilising him. The three pegasi helplessly swirl, however one seems to have the brute strength to fight, the rusty pegasus grabbing hold of a cloud and hanging on, managing to stop himself being dragged in. However the cloud he clings to is moving closer to peril. 01[22:48] <04Quicksilver> 7Golden, Weather and Phoe are helpless. What does Chinook do? 09[22:48] * Phoenix_Down flaps his wings mightily, holding his own against the rapid cloud assault, that is of course, until Weather plows into him "WAUhhghghhghghg" blown around in the wind 09[22:49] * Chinook breathes heavily and tries to get his bearings before realising the others aren't safe. "Damnit!" He calls out. This was *not* in his training. 09[22:49] * GoldenTouch_ was to busy looking at the sights like he told the others not to "WAUGH" 09[22:50] * Weathervane feels the wind whip and lash against her wings and body, buffeting her from another angle as she's drawn into the whirling cyclone. She feels her whole self going topsy-turvy and tries to stabilize herself, attempting to reach her forelegs out to Phoenix or Golden while she circles in the winds. 09[22:50] * Chinook hops off the cloud and flies some distance away from the sirling vortex yet still alongside it. It's a friggin' vortex what CAN you do? 01[22:50] <04Quicksilver> 7Roll for perception Chinny~ 09[22:50] * Chinook looks around for a cloud that doesn't want to knock him out of the sky [22:50] <09Chinook> !roll d20 Percep this [22:50] <15GameServ> 5 == 5 01[22:53] <04Quicksilver> 7Chinook searches around in front of him for a cloud, however the storm around him is sucking them in quickly, and several black looking clouds knock into the pegasus, knocking him off balance and into the storm ahead. 01[22:53] <04Quicksilver> 7Despite all your efforts to break free of the currents of wind, all your strength comes to nought, the air moving too fast for you to possibly escape. 01[22:53] <04Quicksilver> 7The party is flung through one cloud after another, the impacts with them winding but not hurting too much as each pegasus passes through with a popping sound, dissipating the soft barriers easily. Round and round you all go inside the maelstrom, before being caught inside another current and being flung into the black clouds at the centre of the storm. 01[22:53] <04Quicksilver> There is nothing you can do to stop it, you ARE going to hit, and by the looks of things, its gonna hurt. 01[22:53] <04Quicksilver> Roll d3 for damage. [22:53] <09Chinook> !roll d3 owie [22:53] <15GameServ> 1 == 1 [22:53] <15GoldenTouch_> !roll 1d3 [22:53] <15GameServ> 2 == 2 [22:53] <15Phoenix_Down> !roll 1d3 :< [22:53] <15GameServ> 1 == 1 [22:53] <15Phoenix_Down> :3 09[22:54] * Weathervane flails her limbs a bit as she desperately tries to find something to latch onto for leverage. Unfortunately, the only thing around to soften the blow is the wall of clouds ahead. [22:54] <15Weathervane> !roll d3 [22:54] <15GameServ> 3 == 3 01[22:54] <04Quicksilver> 7[okay slow typing time pls forgib] [22:55] <15GoldenTouch_> [im doing homework in meantime, its perfectly okay] 09[22:55] * Phoenix_Down grunts and yelps as he is violently thrown through cloud after cloud, pulling his wings tight against his body so he is more aerodynamic, and also to keep his wings from being broken, trying to fly along with the vortex, rather than get crushed by it [22:55] <09Chinook> "Oh you gotta be-!" He shouts out before being knocked into the vortex like a flying ragdoll. 09[22:56] * GoldenTouch_ tucks his wings in close and curls up like a cannonball being flung out 09[22:58] * Weathervane hits against the stormclouds especially hard, covering her face with her hooves from the incoming clouds as she recoils from the toss. Nauseous, dizzy, and aching from the whiplash, she nonetheless tries to hold together as she tries to glide with the momentum. 09[23:00] * Chinook , not one to be left out, musters up the last of his strength to fold his wings away and assume a bracing position. 01[23:03] <04Quicksilver> 7The three pegasi smash into the cloud wall, punching right through the surface and into the centre of the blackness, the impact winding you all as you smack through layer after layer of blcakc, the clouds clouding your vision and making the path ahead impossible to see. Inwards and inwards you fall, down and down, before you all collide with somehing harder, stopping your fall with an abupt smack. Though your eyes are closed, you can somehow see that it looks... brighter? Where you have landed, and the party bares witness to a surprising sight ahead of them. 09[23:04] * Phoenix_Down scrambles to his hooves, standing up and praising solid ground once again, letting his eyes flicker to and fro to see just what exactly? [23:04] <09Chinook> [The three? Where did the other one end up? I'm guessing it was me] 09[23:04] * GoldenTouch_ thinks he sees birdies flying around his head, he shakes it and clears his head, looking at the sight before him which is.... 01[23:04] <04Quicksilver> 7[Slow GM is still typing] [23:04] <15GoldenTouch_> [o] [23:05] <09Chinook> [/me shuts up] 05[23:07] * Starfire_ (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) has joined #FourCannonPnP 02[23:08] * Starfire (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) Quit (Ping timeout: 186 seconds) 05[23:08] * Starfire_ is now known as Starfire 05[23:09] * Curious (Curious@thinks.everybody.has.got-my.info) has joined #FourCannonPnP 05[23:09] * Starfire_ (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) has joined #FourCannonPnP 01[23:10] <04Quicksilver> 7The group finds themselves stood on a hard white surface, however it is still distinctly cloud but... harder. Behind you there is an almost wall of black, swirling and flashing with lightning bursts, however it seems to abuprly stop where the hard flooring begins, looking rather odd as it floats by. In front of the party is a whole different story entirely! It looks like... A street? A street lined with houses of white, seeming to be made from a mix of the hard stuff you see beneath you, and regular old fashioned cloud. The street isnt the only thing ahead. From your position the massive superstructure of a town sprawls ahead of you, a giant tiered place with buildings of many shapes and sizes. Above you however seems to be many dangerous looking thunderclouds, flying up to another teir of this place seems to look like it will end in pain. However the way ahead seems mostly clear with the street ahead seeming silent besides a few booming sounds of thunder. A few thuds from behind later and Chinook appears through the cloud layer, smashing into Weather and tumbling onto the floor 02[23:11] * Starfire (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) Quit (Ping timeout: 186 seconds) 09[23:12] * GoldenTouch_ hears weather cry out as chin hits her, but he's to busy gazing at the city sprawlled out in front of him "...Sweet mother teresa on the hood of a mercadies benz...." 05[23:12] * Starfire_ is now known as Starfire 09[23:12] * Phoenix_Down blinks, looking at what is literally a cloud town "woah... how long has this been here..." clippity clopping his hooves against the surface to check for structural security 09[23:13] * Chinook grunts and yelps as he rolls along like a sack of thrown potatoes. His vision is blurred and he's almost sick from the motion but he shakes his head reorientates himself. "Oh, damn was that you, Weather? Sorry about th-....that." He says, cut off halfway between helping her back up and taking in the hidden city before him. 01[23:13] <04Quicksilver> 7The floor is firm underneath your hooves, the cloud popping abilities Phoenix usually has doesnt seem to work on this flooring... odd. [23:14] <09Chinook> "....Are we dead?" [23:14] <15GoldenTouch_> "If we are...that means that athiests were wrong..." 09[23:14] * Weathervane groans as she smacks against the tough surface, slumping down and rubbing her head from the brief shot of pain but nonetheless relieved that she has somewhere to rest her hooves. She starts to stand with shaky legs and opens her eye try to catch a glimpse of what she could have bumped into, keeping her eyes averted from the source of brightness as much as she can. She looks around 09[23:14] * Weathervane and bounces around on the dense cloud with her hooves, laughing excitedly and gazing around at the city-like structure... before yelping in surprise and being forced back into the ground from Chinook flying into her. "Gaaaaah..." She reaches up with her hoof and pulls herself back upright, managing to stand once more with his help before returning her sights to the surrounding cloud 09[23:14] * Weathervane structure. "Yeah... I'm good... I think..." [23:14] <15Phoenix_Down> "Pegasus gods 1... Unicorn Athesists 0...." 09[23:15] * GoldenTouch_ smacks phoe across the head with his wing 09[23:15] * Phoenix_Down ignores the smack, trotting forward dwn the cloud street "hello!? anyone here!?" calling out in a loud voice 09[23:16] * GoldenTouch_ used the smack to see if he reacted, oh god, he didn't react, he actually starts wondering if they are dead 09[23:16] * Chinook would laugh but he's suspended in disbelief. He sighs as he hears Phoe call out. "Not like we had much cover anyway, making an entrance like that." 02[23:16] * Hidden_Glimmer (~Hidden_Gl@HSI-KBW-109-193-210-147.hsi7.kabel-badenwuerttemberg.de) Quit 01[23:16] <04Quicksilver> 7Phoe's voice echoes down the clouded street, the call being met with... silence... The echo bounces off the walls of the houses and comes back to him. No response, no answer, no nothing. [23:16] <09Chinook> [Oh look at that, based SoTC playlist just started http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGyoGv0v9v8] 09[23:17] * Weathervane fumbles around on her trembling legs a moment before finally managing to regain her composure, still feeling out the 'pavement' below her hooves as she follows along the street. The eerie silence unsettles her as the echoes make their course, looking around to each side. "Hmm..." [23:17] <15Phoenix_Down> "I wonder what all this is..." trotting down a bit further, letting his wings unfurl and fly his way over to one of the nearby cloud homes, peeking into a window 09[23:18] * GoldenTouch_ listens to that echo "This...this looks like a cloud city from like in the show...but what could it possibly be doing here?!" he perks up thinking about all the information they might find 05[23:18] * Starfire_ (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) has joined #FourCannonPnP 09[23:19] * Chinook decides to keep low for now and trots down the centre of the street, gazing around at the structures. If this was somehow the work of pegasus magic then that would explain the bubble of excitement nurturing within him amidst the fear of being thrown into a storm. 01[23:20] <04Quicksilver> 7Weathervane walks down the street away from the group, her hooves oddly making little sound as they tread on the hardened cloud flooring, Chinook soon follows and finds the same.  Close to the group are several odd looking houses, crafted it seems from the very clouds that swirl in the skies, however these are unmoving, and seem to form small dwellings that look rather like suburban housing. 02[23:21] * Starfire (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) Quit (Ping timeout: 186 seconds) 05[23:21] * Starfire_ is now known as Starfire 02[23:21] * Able_Tome|AFK (AbleTome@b1f-008.static.bnc4free.com) Quit (Excess Flood) 09[23:22] * GoldenTouch_ follows after the group not wanting to be left behind, he tries lifting off into the air again to see how big this city actually is compared to fourcannon persay 09[23:22] * Chinook goes up towards one of the houses and taps his hooves against the surface.

And where are they now?" 09[23:22] * Phoenix_Down seems to not notice anything the cloud house window, slipping through it to investigate inside 05[23:23] * Able_Tome (AbleTome@b1f-008.static.bnc4free.com) has joined #FourCannonPnP 09[23:24] * Weathervane taps a hoof against the cloud as she notices the clicks they make before peering around the houses. "Hmm... maybe another pegasus city that got blown astray somehow? Or maybe just one that got abandoned? Maybe like a ghost town. Shot in the dark, but... well, just thinking out loud, heh." 09[23:25] * Chinook gulps at hearing ghost town and glances back at the way they came in briefly before turning his attention back to Weathervane and nodding. "Any of those sound better than being dead because if this is the afterlife....then it sucks." 05[23:25] * Starfire_ (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) has joined #FourCannonPnP 09[23:26] * GoldenTouch_ calls down to chinook "If this is the afterlife, I expected more inquisition" taking in the landscape around him. all the beautiful pegasi secrets just waiting to be dwelved into 01[23:26] <04Quicksilver> 7Golden easily acheives flight thanks to his mastery of the subject, swooping up and observing a small neighbourhood of houses along the street, with a large building at the end, dark and stormy clouds seem to float out of the building, joining the wall of black surrounding half of it. Phoenix slips inside to see a bare white room, nothing appears to be inside besides what looks like a sofa crafted from cloud. What appear to be cupboards line one wall, and a staircase adorns the far corner, leading up to the top flore.

"In any case... if we're dealing with something this well-built, I don't think it'd be too easy to completely disassemble it." 09[23:29] * Chinook tuts as he looks towards the source of Phoe's voice. "Seriously? He's just wandering into what could be somepony's house?" He takes flight and lands on the same window ledge Phoenix entered before hearing and Golden and flying up alongside him and taking in the sight. 05[23:29] * Starfire_ (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) has joined #FourCannonPnP 01[23:30] <04Quicksilver> 7Phoenix gets no answer, and finds nothing at all in the cupboards, it appears the house was totally cleaned out. Weather's hoof makes a thudding sound but not much else happens. Golden can see that clouds moving out of the building are swirling round the area, mose gravitating outwards but some resisting and holding in place inside the town. The whole scene besides the swirling wall of everpresent black, seems very heavenly like. 09[23:32] * Phoenix_Down nods "mmhmm..." shutting the cupboard and not bothering to check anything else, floating back out the window and up towards the others, taking in the sight of the malicious building "think its... one of those cloud factories? maybe gone wrong?" [23:32] <09Chinook> "Well." He says, hovering and crossing his forelegs. "Seems like we found our culprit." 09[23:32] * Weathervane looks up to Golden and glides over to the spot alongside Chinook, looking over to where he indicates and surveying the storm-producing section of the building. "Hmm... I can see that. Cloud factory, generator... in any case, it's taken over, heh." [23:32] <15GoldenTouch_> "Well theres our problem... i think so, maybe derpy did it" he says, the perfect explenation to everything 02[23:32] * Starfire (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) Quit (Ping timeout: 194 seconds) [23:32] <09Chinook> "Let's hope it's that simple."

However as Golden and Weather oberseve the area, they catch a flash of rainbow colours floating around one of the houses ahead, drifting lazily on some unseen current in the air. However at this distance, the shape is not visible. 05[23:37] * Starfire (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) has joined #FourCannonPnP 09[23:37] * GoldenTouch_ looks at the gang "Did you see that gang?

"Mhm... can't quite make it out though... might explain our problem, though." 09[23:39] * Phoenix_Down wiggles his flanks 02[23:39] * Starfire_ (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) Quit (Ping timeout: 186 seconds) 09[23:39] * Chinook bumps hooves with Phoe before realising Golden is trying to brief them on something or other and glances over at the yellow pegasus.

[23:40] <15GoldenTouch_> " [23:41] <09Chinook> "Question." Chinook says, holding a hoof up 09[23:41] * Phoenix_Down nods "yea, lets get this thing turned off before it destroys Fourcannon or something" swooshing around and gliding towards the malfunctional weather factory [23:42] <09Chinook> "How do we get out before we set about shutting down something we know hardly anything about?" 02[23:42] * Starfire (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) Quit (Ping timeout: 186 seconds) [23:42] <15GoldenTouch_> "Uhhhhh through hardwork, teamwork, and synergy?" 01[23:43] <04Quicksilver> 7The whirling cloud of black in the direction the party came from seems to say "I double dare you to try this way, mwah hah hah" 05[23:43] * High_Tide is now known as Away_Tide [23:43] <15Phoenix_Down> [clouds pls] 09[23:43] * Chinook points at the aforementioned black cloud. "Because that ain't an option." [23:44] <15GoldenTouch_> "Well it looks like we take this thing down, or we never leave, we're on the ride chinook, best to go along with it" 09[23:44] * Chinook shrugs at Goldie. "I've worked with less." 09[23:45] * GoldenTouch_ follows after phoenix on that note 09[23:45] * Weathervane takes a cautious step toward the building where she and Golden saw the flash before looking to Chinook. "Hm... yeah, don't really know the connection yet, but..." She looks ahead to the cyclone. "Doesn't look like we have a whole lot of choice, heh." 01[23:45] <04Quicksilver> 7Does the party head down the street towards the big building? [23:45] <15GoldenTouch_> [yes] 09[23:45] * Chinook certainly does 09[23:45] * Phoenix_Down is in the process of doing so, yes 09[23:46] * Weathervane might as well. 02[23:46] * Away_Tide (High_Tide@S010648f8b36bb04d.no.shawcable.net) Quit (Ping timeout: 194 seconds) [23:48] <09Chinook> "If we had a pizza, we could knock and fool them into thinking we were making a delivery. Scratch that, boiler suits. We need boiler suits." 01[23:50] <04Quicksilver> 7The group makes their way down the street, coming to a stop in front of the big factory building. Ahead is an archway with a logo of a cloud emblazened onto its peak... creative. behind the archway is the main building itself, a blocky structure with an open front door, seeminly inviting the group in. The clouds themselves seem to seep out of the chimneys, in what looks like a cartoon diagram of how factories cause pollution... Fitting really.  Another flash of rainbow is visible in the window of the house nearest to the factory, before disappearing inside. [23:50] <15GoldenTouch_> "Why would that wor- there it was again! Common, don't tell me im the only one who saw that" [23:51] <15Phoenix_Down> "no Chinook, cable company, do you even heist... saw what Golden?" [23:52] <09Chinook> "Whoa, whoa, whoa back up a second. You mean that rainbow-esque light just then?" He says, scanning around rapidly. "The hell was that?" [23:53] <15GoldenTouch_> "Probably something guarding this ancient pegasi town, which will probably reveil itself in a dark souls esc fight after we go inside" 09[23:55] * Phoenix_Down stops in front of the others, turning to face them "what ARE you two talking about? what rainbow flash? what guardian?" 09[23:56] * Chinook points Phoe in the direction of the window the flash appeared in. "Just there, it was quick. Like, real quick." [23:56] <15GoldenTouch_> "Phoe, check your goggles, lets just go with how the story is supposed to progress and act surprised when it happens" 09[23:56] * Weathervane looks up to the factory and the production of storm clouds through the vents overhead, catching a glimpse of the rainbow light and turning her head to the nearby house. "Uh... hm. Yeah, it's been around off and on, but it's hard to get a good look..." She sighs and looks ahead to the inside of the factory. 09[23:58] * Phoenix_Down bites his lip "well what if the flash is somebody? what if its the key to figuring out this mess, or to shutting off this thing?" 09[23:58] * GoldenTouch_ heads toward the building "Well then we find it out!" 09[23:59] * Chinook sighs and lands on the cloudy floor, electing to trot his way towards the main entrance and through the archway. 05[23:59] * Feldspar (Feldspar@c50-27-61-17.mdlncmtk01.tx.dh.suddenlink.net) has joined #FourCannonPnP Session Time: Tue Apr 22 00:00:00 2014   Session Start: Tue Apr 22 00:00:00 2014 Session Ident: #FourCannonPnP 01[00:00] <04Quicksilver> 7Does the party investigate the house? or enter the factory? 09[00:00] * GoldenTouch_ says factory for !fun! 09[00:00] * Phoenix_Down wants the house, but will go factory since thats where everyone else is going 09[00:01] * Weathervane diverts her attention to the building beside the factory in which they caught a glimpse of light, stepping more toward it to see if she can't try to parse something through the window. "Hmm..." [00:01] <09Chinook> "Generally we shouldn't split up but I'm all for pairing up if it means we find a way out of here quicker." [00:03] <15GoldenTouch_> "We can all meet up back at the malt shop!" 1,1[Greenhoof] [00:03] <15Weathervane> "Mm... might just need a quick look. If there's nothing around then..." She nods to the factory. "Well, we shouldn't be to far, heh." 01[00:03] <04Quicksilver> 7Weather peers inside the window and is witness to an odd sight, a small, ray like creature floating around inside the mostly bare home, drifting through the air as it nudges against an old cloud made coffee table. The pegasus looks for a while longer as the others talk, before she becomes aware of a hissing sound to her right. [00:04] <15Phoenix_Down> "I'll stick with Weather..." following the pink pegasus over towards the cloud home that has some rainbow flash that everyone seems so fixated on, trotting over to her and trying to peek into the window after her, but instead being drawn to an annoying hiss 01[00:05] <04Quicksilver> 7As Phoenix turns to look, she notices a huge version of the ray from inside glaring at her through slitted eyes and hissing, fanning its rainbow coloured sides and trying to look big, continuing to hiss at the pegasi. http://i.imgur.com/0F1gzju.jpg?1?4225 09[00:05] * GoldenTouch_ knows how hard it is for GM's when party splits and followas after phoe and weather 01[00:05] <04Quicksilver> [oops changed Weather to Phoe and forgot the pronouns] 09[00:05] * Chinook scraps his Fred impression and follows [00:05] <15Phoenix_Down> >her 09[00:06] * Phoenix_Down jumps back, startled by the sudden ray "waugh! uh.. h-hello momma rainbow ray!" checking to see if his sword was still at his side 09[00:07] * Weathervane furrows her brow and stays low to the window sill as she looks on to the source of the rainbow light, the creature catching her attention a moment. She slowly turns her head to the larger source of hissing and gasps in surprise at the thing. She scrambles to take back up her spear and jumps back, stepping back slightly. "Oh, shoot!" [00:08] <03Rain_Drop> [phew! finally caught up with you all! You guys seem to be in a bit of a pickle remember the universe you live in!!] 01[00:08] <04Quicksilver> 7The ray flickers its tail from side to side as it hovers in front of the two, its sides rippling as if it is swimming in mid air. It hisses some more at the two ponies, advancing closer as if to attack them before darting back and continuing its hissing display. [00:09] <09Chinook> "You hear that?" He says to Goldie before trotting hastily over to the house and nudging the door open. "Wh-whoa! Whoa....whoa...you guys okay?" 09[00:09] * Phoenix_Down hisses back at it, reaching for his sword, turning his head slowly towards Weather "no sudden movements... lets just get back with the others... momma ray might just leave us alone..." [00:09] <15GoldenTouch_> [i'll be on my phone] [00:09] <15GoldenTouch_> [give me a moment to switch] 01[00:09] <04Quicksilver> [okeydoke, freeze for Golden] 02[00:09] * GoldenTouch_ (~kvirc@c-174-58-117-125.hsd1.fl.comcast.net) Quit (Quit: KVIrc 4.2.0 Equilibrium http://www.kvirc.net/) 09[00:10] * Weathervane continues to step away from the rainbow ray, lifting her hoof as she backs up toward the factory. "Easy, now, easy..." she says gently. "We'll just be on our way..." She turns to Phoenix with a nod, swallowing anxiously as she eases her way out of the way. 09[00:11] * Phoenix_Down backs away from the Ray slowly, heading slowly back towards the factory "easy... easy now momma... we don't wan no trabble...." 05[00:11] * GoldenTouch_ (webchat@66-87-73-39.pools.spcsdns.net) has joined #FourCannonPnP 09[00:12] * Chinook quietens down and whilst holding the door open, silently beckons the two with a hoof towards the exit. [00:12] <15GoldenTouch_> [sorry] 01[00:12] <04Quicksilver> 7As Chinook opens the door to the house, the large ray seems to become even more aggitated, dashing around the heads of the group and making feinting divebombs on Chinook, pulling away at the last second before it hits, making clicking sounds at the rusty pegasus. 09[00:13] * GoldenTouch_ follows quickly  over to the  rusty pone, stopping as he sees the ray doing it's thing 09[00:13] * Phoenix_Down looks towards Chinook and frowns, whispering harshly "get away from the house, get back to the factory" 09[00:13] * Chinook backs the hell up and into the street 09[00:13] * Weathervane backs up with her eyes firmly attached to the ray, staying on guard with her spear in her foreleg but keeping the point away from its face. "Woah, woah, woah! We're leavin', we're leavin', don't worry..." 09[00:14] * GoldenTouch_ backs up with chin like nope, told you it was some enemy or something [00:14] <15Phoenix_Down> [but oh man do I want that baby one as a pet :3] [00:15] <15GoldenTouch_> [>you are what's wrong with 4C] [00:15] <15Phoenix_Down> [no u] 01[00:15] <04Quicksilver> 7Fanning its brightly coloured tail, the hovering technicolour skyray wards the group away from the house, staying between them and the window and door, all the while hissing in annoyance. Through the open door, the group can see the smaller one drift around nonchalently, bumping a wall and clicking in surprise. [00:16] <15GoldenTouch_> [it would kill lucyne the kitty] 09[00:16] * Phoenix_Down keeps slowly backing away with Weather, a hoof never straying far from his blade "see... nobody is coming near your baby..." [00:17] <03Rain_Drop> [yay the pcs arent being murderhobos!] 09[00:17] * GoldenTouch_ knows how this ray feels, backing up and staying away from his weapons altogeather, the desire to protect your young everyone but weather should know firsthand 09[00:17] * Phoenix_Down [kills Rain later] [00:17] <03Rain_Drop> [pls] [00:18] <09Chinook> [>3 dads on a quest] [00:18] <09Chinook> [DadQuest] [00:18] <15GoldenTouch_> [>all pegasi] [00:18] <15GoldenTouch_> [pegasi are master breeders] [00:19] <15Phoenix_Down> [its in our instincts] [00:19] <09Chinook> [Never give in and never pull out] 09[00:19] * Phoenix_Down reaches a safe enough distance away from the Rainbow Ray before turning towards the others "yea lets go to the factory now" [00:20] <09Chinook> "Alright, but if we encounter any more of those between us and our exit? I don't think it'll go as gently." He warns. 01[00:20] <04Quicksilver> 7Seeing the pegasi retreating, the mother ray darts back inside, swooping her child up and heading upstairs and out of sight, the rainbow of colours finally gone and leaving the party surrounded by more white than the walls of #lewdroom 09[00:20] * Weathervane backs up away from the house and slowly retreats toward the factory, stepping out of the ray's range and holding her breath as she steps back onto the road. With an exhale she looks back to the entrance of the factory, shaking off the scare and rubbing her head. "Yeah..." [00:20] <09Chinook> [....hang on] [00:21] <15GoldenTouch_> "Told ya...now let's just hurry up and solve this thing" he suddenly feels the urge to go home and see his own foals [00:21] <09Chinook> [Nope nvm] [00:21] <15Phoenix_Down> "eeyep, lets find a way out of here... and a way to shut this thing off before the storm hits Fourcannon!" 01[00:22] <04Quicksilver> 7The entrance f the factory looms ahead of the group, door wide open as if to beckon the wandering pegasi inside. Do you investigate? 09[00:22] * Phoenix_Down investigates! 09[00:22] * Chinook hops off the ground and flutters to try and find another exit, not entering just yet. "You guys go on ahead." [00:22] <15Feldspar> [go go gadget investigation team!] [00:23] <03Rain_Drop> [pfft cmon now thats...not...oh shit it is! Weather run nigga run!] 09[00:23] * Weathervane repositions her mane behind her ear nervously and nods and starts to make her way inside the factory, being on the look out for anything that looks like it could be the source of their troubles. "Right..." 09[00:23] * GoldenTouch_ goes scooby doo on this bitch [00:24] <03Rain_Drop> [run in terror like a cat at the hint of water and eat retarded amounts of food?] 09[00:24] * Phoenix_Down folds his ears back, looking all over the factory for the source of this problem, his eyes flicking back and forth as he tries to take in the whole building's layout [00:24] <09Chinook> [Rut your rucking routh, rain] [00:24] <09Chinook> [Errr I mean Raggy] 09[00:25] * GoldenTouch_ wishes his knew something about machinery looking and listening for anything out if place 09[00:25] * Phoenix_Down doesn't know anything about factory machinery, but knows a heck of a lot about unplugging things! 05[00:27] * Starfire (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) has joined #FourCannonPnP 01[00:27] <04Quicksilver> 7The party heads inside, finding themselves in the lobby of the weather factory. A desk stands in the centre of the room, devoid of all but a stray pencil that seems to rest on the cloud with no worries. One wall contains a noteboard made of a cork type material, pinned to it is a piece of paper, with Equestrian script written on it, beside it rests a picture that seems like it was drawn by a child with a crayon, depicting the factory in a crude, wrongly coloured drawing. Two doors lead off from the room, both closed, one is a single door while the other seems to be double. The room's inside is lit by a bright light on the desk, seemingly looking like a cloud matrix containing a glowing crystal, however the light seems to be tinged a sickly purple colour.

"Cute... so it was just an ordinary place at some point, huh?" 09[00:31] * GoldenTouch_ heads over to the office with one door, curious to see what's going on here, trying to lean everything he can if he ever wants to be a true weather pony [00:31] <10Sugarcoat> [/me hears the "rainbow factory" song playing] 09[00:32] * Phoenix_Down looks at the words to see if there is anyting to tell him about the factory itself "yea..

She chuckles to Phoenix before turning to see Golden entering the supply closet, pursing her 09[00:38] * Weathervane lips together tightly to hold in a laugh before continuing to glance around the lobby area. 09[00:38] * GoldenTouch_ rubs the spot the thing hit and picks up the broom as his new weapon, idly twirling it 09[00:39] * Phoenix_Down nods, looking over at Golden with a smile "yea.. but that just raises more issues... if they all had time to peacefully leave... then they couldn't solve the problem themselves... what says we can?" 01[00:39] <04Quicksilver> 7Chinook does not find another door but notices that some of the clouds coming out of the chimneys are not black, but white like normal, however they are absorbed by the swirling storm. 02[00:40] * Starfire (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) Quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) 01[00:40] <04Quicksilver> 7The broom seems to be a regular wooden broom, with horsehair bristle on the end of multiple colours.

He looks in the closet 09[00:41] * GoldenTouch_ look at the floor then as well 01[00:41] <04Quicksilver> 7Not much is left in the closet besides a mop and a wrench. The floor seems to be made out of the same hard white cloud as was outside. [00:41] <09Chinook> "Huh." He notes before flying back down to the entrance and looking back up at the chimney and trotting inside, rejoining the group. [00:42] <15Phoenix_Down> "I wonder how this stuff stays afloat... is it all some cloud manufactury? are all these things actually made of clouds in some way? or are the clouds themselves modified to be more metaphysical?" 05[00:42] * Starfire (~Starfire@c72063.upc-c.chello.nl) has joined #FourCannonPnP [00:42] <09Chinook> "Ooh!

[00:43] <09Chinook> "I don't." 01[00:43] <04Quicksilver> 7The mop seems to be half way sunk into the floor, as if somewhere in between deciding if the cloud can support it or not. [00:43] <09Chinook> "But the clouds coming out seemed normal enough, they were absorbed by the storm." [00:43] <15Phoenix_Down> "you don't what?" 09[00:44] * Phoenix_Down walks over to the broom, stepping on it and pushing down with his hoof 01[00:45] <04Quicksilver> [Golden has the broom, do you mean the mop?] [00:45] <15Phoenix_Down> [oh I thought he dropped the broom, yea the mop] 09[00:45] * GoldenTouch_ is the prince of appliances 09[00:45] * Chinook kicks a hoof at the surface of the floor and is about to reply to Phoenix before saying. "Actually. I'll be right back." He turns to make his exit and flutters back up to the chimney tops and tries carefully touching one of the clouds. 09[00:46] * Weathervane trots back toward the main reception space of the lobby, listening in on the conversation while glancing around the building. "Hmm... so this isn't producing the storm clouds, huh? Well, shoot... Guess a stray storm got caught on here and all the new clouds are still feeding it, or something like that..." She leans a foreleg on the desk as she continues to think. 01[00:46] <04Quicksilver> 7The mop sinks completely into the floor, but Phoenix finds himself unable to push it further as his hoof contacts the hard floor, leadning to the odd sight of the mop stuck in the floor like a vidya clipping error. 01[00:47] <04Quicksilver> 7Also some of the clouds were normal, not all 09[00:47] * Phoenix_Down rubs his chin in thought, trying to pull the mop handle back out of the cloud floor 09[00:48] * Chinook makes sure to investigate one of the more normal looking clouds. Not the black ones. Those are dicks. 01[00:49] <04Quicksilver> 7Phoe tries to grab the mop, but his hoof hits solid ground  before it contacts with the wood...odd... Chinook flies up to a normal cloud, catching the thing beforre it joins the swirling wall. The thing seems... normal. The air booms as a black cloud spews out of the chimeny near Chin, vibrating the air. 09[00:50] * GoldenTouch_ heads over to the double doors [00:50] <15Phoenix_Down> [so I cannot pull the mop back out?] 09[00:51] * Phoenix_Down tries to pull the mop out by the moppy bit and not the handle 01[00:51] <04Quicksilver> [nope, you pushed it into the floor, but your hoof cant go into the floor to get it out] [00:51] <09Chinook> "Whoa!" He cries out before fluttering backwards, still holding the cloud. 09[00:54] * Weathervane follows Golden to examine what could be behind the double-doors, smiling and peering on out of interest as she helps push it open. "Hmm... well, let's see what's behind door number two, then!" 09[00:54] * Phoenix_Down tries,if that doesn't work, to put his hooves on the ground and orm a cloud underneath the mop to try and pop it back out of the floor 09[00:55] * Chinook taps the cloud to see if it has the same texture as the flooring 01[00:56] <04Quicksilver> 7The double doors open onto a darkened corridor, only flickering light from the purple tinged lamp in the lobby lighting it up. Blackness stretches ahead of Golden and Weather, but there is a crack of light from some doors ahead. Phoe's effots are in vain... its gone jim. The cloud Chin taps feels like any other cloud, and deforms a bit under his hoof, natural pegasi cloud popping skillz at work. 05[00:57] * Nova_Flux[FU] (~Nova_Flux@99-92-69-161.lightspeed.elpstx.sbcglobal.net) has joined #FourCannonPnP 09[00:57] * Phoenix_Down curses, not doing anything to hide his disdain for his inability to pull the handle out, wondering what Pegasi would do when this happens, before trotting back over to Golden and Weather "I may have gotten the mop stuck" [00:57] <03Rain_Drop> [hahah] [00:58] <03Rain_Drop> [its like pudding cement and you lost the mop] [00:58] <15GoldenTouch_> "Wow...that's a rain move phoe, you griefsr" [00:58] <03Rain_Drop> [adds whole new meaning to...HEY!] 09[00:58] * Chinook shrugs and discards the cloud to be free and flutters back down, folding his wings away and rejoining the group. 09[00:58] * GoldenTouch_ shakes his head from that studder "griefer!" [00:58] <15Phoenix_Down> "I was testing it out! I wanted to see if it was the floor, or the handle that was keeping it afloat, if its the handle, we can use em as cloud based life rafts for non pegasi [00:58] <03Rain_Drop> [I wouldn't have done that! I would have tried to stir the cloud up with the mop instead of just pushing it in the cloud jeeze...] [00:58] <15Phoenix_Down> " 09[00:59] * GoldenTouch_ remembers his horsehair brush and starts sweeping the cloud, wondering what happens as he continues into the darkness with weather 09[01:00] * GoldenTouch_ wonders if he can hear the whirl of machinery 01[01:00] <04Quicksilver> 7Roll perception fgt [01:01] <15GoldenTouch_> !roll 1d20 what do my elf ears here [01:01] <15GameServ> 1 == 1 [01:01] <15GoldenTouch_> Hear* 09[01:01] * Phoenix_Down takes a nosy look around the room, squinting in the darkness to try and see what this room held "huh... man cloud masonry is weird as all get out..." 01[01:01] <04Quicksilver> 7Ur deff, thats what u get for asking too many kwestions.

Keeping her steps cautious and keeping her steps as straight as possible, she feels out for any oddities beneath her as she steps cautiously in the darkness. [01:07] <09Chinook> [Sounds good to me] [01:07] <09Chinook> [night] 09[01:07] * GoldenTouch_ follows along as well 09[01:07] * Phoenix_Down hovers above the ground rather than walk 02[01:07] * Chinook (~Chinny@host-2-96-55-149.as13285.net) Quit (Quit: KVIrc 4.2.0 Equilibrium http://www.kvirc.net/) 01[01:07] <04Quicksilver> 7Do you open the far door?

As your eyes reopen, the scene ahead of you unfolds before your eyes. The large room spreads out ahead of you, the far wall adorned with three large tubes, one full of rainbow juice and the other two filled with a sickly purple fluid, the tubes are suspended above syringe like needles that periodically descend and make a hissing sound as it clearly injects something into the large metal hopper below. From the ceiling runs several tubes filled with water clearly collected from the clouds around, heading for the hopper in which the rainbow is injected. From the hopper spews a deep purple steam, which trails over the floor like a fog machine, making the room look carpeted in the stuff. Metal catwalks run along each wall, with entirely unsafe handrails and clearly no OSHA compliance. More noteboards adorn the back wall where the group entered, two more sheets of paper pinned to them. Three large metal containers run along one side of the room, gleaming white from their cloud construction. However most noticable of all is what floats around tthe room... Small snake like creatures seeming made of purple cloud swarm around the room, floating through the air and crackling slightly with what looks to be lightning. red eyes that seem to exist from nothing look towards the group, and the cloud snakes wiggle through the air towards the party, crackling and clearly intent on attack!

Phoenix flies above the vats level with the three injection ports, one full of rainbow juice and the other two filled with a sickly purple fluid, the tubes are suspended above syringe like needles that periodically descend and make a hissing sound as it clearly injects something into the large metal hoppers below. The snakes seem to be spawning from the hoppers where a sickly purple smoke spews forth. The rest of the party is still engages onn the factory floor [oh hi Chinook] Everyone roll init when ready.

Hoping to buy them some time, she starts to beat her wings to generate a strong wind buffet toward the remaining snakes and divert them from their course. [18:34] * Chinook grunts something at Phoenix before sheathing his weapon, scraping his forehoof on the floor like a bull seeing the red cape. [18:34] [never forget the innocent goat that Weather killed] [18:35] * GoldenTouch still has his broom of sweeping +2 to cleaning floors trying to assess the situation [18:35] The two snakes heading for weather are caught in the draft.

[18:41] Phoe is up! You cannot see any levers up by the injection ports, just the large liquid filled cylinders and the injectors into the vats below. [18:42] "Just how I like 'em!" [18:42] * Phoenix_Down frantically looks around the machinery, looking for a shut off valve, or some lever, some way to stop the injection ports [uhh, how big are the injectors?] [18:42] [ya gotta smash the canisters Shepe- Nix!] [18:43] Phoenix finds no lever, and there does not appear to be a shut off valve on any of the cylinders. The injectors look at least as big as you. [18:44] * Phoenix_Down honestly has no idea how this kind of machinery works, and just looks confused [18:44] Golden's turn!

"That's the way to go!" she cheers to Phoenix. [18:57] [if its 3, then I clogged one of the ones beneath a purple vat] [18:58] Golden poofs a snake into poofness! and yeah phoe i guessed.

[19:07] * Phoenix_Down flies over to the other hopper beneath a purple vat, rounding up enough atmosphere to clog it with a nice poofy cloud [19:09] The hopper is clogged, and the snakes cannot get out of the vat below...yet. [19:11] "this is probably just a temporary solution... everyone look around for some way to turn off this machine while I keep them clogged!" [19:12] "Vane! I'll keep 'em busy, you help Phoenix out!"

[19:16] ["CONFLICT RESOLVED!"] [19:16] * Weathervane sighs as the last snake vanishes and nods as she glides closer to the generator, surveying the machinery and keeping her eyes open for any indication of a power source. "So now... this thing..." [19:16] * Chinook flicks his right foreleg to wind it down and lets out a long breath. "Let's not celebrate just yet, those machines are still pumping." [19:16] A hissing sound can be heard from the vats beneath the cloud cover, and flashes of light can be seen. [19:17] * Phoenix_Down looks down, hearing the hissing and flashing "they are not happy in there..." [19:17] Weather looks at the generator and sees a glowing coming from within, however the whole thing is made from a mixture of compressed cloud and steel, and an entry point is not visible. [19:18] * Chinook hops off the ground and ascends a few feet in the air, hovering whilst observing. [19:18] [I prefer the term cloud-steel :3] [19:19] * Chinook flutters towards Phoenix and looks over the machines. "Anything now?" [19:19] [i prefer the term "phoe killing monsters" [19:20] * Phoenix_Down steps on his poofy cloud cork "uhg, they are still in there... we still need to shut these machines off pronto before they blow through these barriers" trying to pack more dense clouds into his cork [19:20] * Weathervane peers in to the glowing but sighs as it seems there's no way in, instead tracing her glance to the cloudy surface at the base of the generator for any sort of connecting point. "Nothing yet... whatever's in there and keepin' this thing goin', it's sealed up pretty tight." [19:21] * Chinook snorts a short laugh. "Take it these things ain't got wires either. Alright, so what's powering them?" [19:22] do you want me to post the description of the room? [19:22] [Pls do] [19:22] * Chinook takes another look around at his surroundings [19:25] The large room spreads out ahead of you, one wall is adorned with three large glass tubes, one full of rainbow juice and the other two filled with a sickly purple fluid, the tubes are suspended above syringe like needles that periodically descend and make a hissing sound as they clearly injects something into the large metal hoppers below. From the ceiling runs several tubes filled with water clearly collected from the clouds around, heading for the hoppers in which the rainbow is injected.  Metal catwalks run along each wall, with entirely unsafe handrails and clearly no OSHA compliance. More noteboards adorn the back wall where the group entered, two more sheets of paper pinned to them. Three large metal containers run along one side of the room, gleaming white from their cloud construction. One is clearly the generator, and glows with a slight purple as observed by weather. [19:26] * Chinook points at the generator. "What about that? Can we shut it down from here?" [19:26] "someone... someone check those forms by the door" [19:28] * Weathervane flies over to the notes on the door at Phoenix's indication and tries to glean the text for any clues on shutting the system down. "Hmm..." [19:29] * Chinook inspects the generator for anything resembling a switch and/or plug. [19:29] Chinook roll perception, Weather can you read Equestrian? [19:29] [yes] [19:29] !roll d20 Percep this [19:29] 19 == 19 [19:29] * Weathervane hopes it's in basic... [19:31] * Snow_Blind is now known as Snow_Payne [19:32] Chinook notices that there is a small glass panel on one side of the generator, it seems to be very thick, and behind it glows a purple crystal that pulses with a dark and eerie looking glow. Weather reads the note. It appears to be a warning notice written in block caps. "Please be careful around the injection cylinders, last week we had to shut down for weeks after Rain Drop decided to crack one" [19:33] [gosh Rain, you klutz] [19:33] [days*] [19:34] [hue last week we had to shut down for weeks] [19:34] * Weathervane takes off the notes and holds them closer to her face to read them closer, reading them aloud as she drifts back to the others. "'Be careful around injection cylinders'... 'had to shut down after...' Wait, what?" [19:35] "so there is a way to shut them off... maybe from an office of some sort?" [19:36] "Guys, I got something here!" [19:36] * Weathervane shakes her head and folds the notes, placing them in her saddlebag for future reference. "Not that I could see... though apparently one of them was cracked... maybe--" She cuts herself off as she looks over to Chinook. "Hm?" [19:36] * Chinook taps the panel a few times. Something this thick, hooves probably won't be enough. [19:37] "hmmm... any sign of cracking on any of the cylinders? [19:37] * Chinook assumes the panel is locked. But tries opening it anyway just to set his mind at ease. [19:38] The head is backwar- I mean the panel is locked. [19:39] [Any sign of a keyhole, any immediate way to open it or just a solid glass panel?] [19:39] [solid glass] [19:40] * Chinook is no engineer but it seems pretty risky just trying to break open a generator. Especially one with a sort of dark crystal like that. [19:43] * Chinook searches around for something blunt and solid just in case. Preferably a hammer. [19:44] The ground is shrouded in the purple fog up to his knees, spotting anything on the floor will be difficult... [19:46] * GreenHoof|Sleep is now known as GreenHoof [19:46] "Golden, can you blow this fog away with your wing power?" [19:46] "Yeah I got you" he loves wing buffet 2 and flaps his powerful wings [19:46] * Chinook tries just that and closes the other tabs [19:46] "I do have a wrench..." [19:47] The fog seems to replenish almost immedately as it continues to spew from the vats even with them capped by Phoe's clouds. [19:48] "uhg..." [19:48] "Pass it here and wish me luck." [19:50] * GoldenTouchGM hands chinook the wrench [19:50] * Chinook grips it with his teeth and winds up a big one, aiming it at the glass panel. [19:50] !roll to smack the glass! [19:50] 1 == 1 [19:51] oops [19:51] Exclamation mark pls go, roll Chin! [19:51] !roll d20 In emergency, break glass [19:51] 18 == 18 [19:53] Chinook swings at the glass, the wrench contacting it with a sickening crunch as it shatters inwards, creating a jagged hole in the centre of the panel. One of Chin's teeth feels a bit more wobbly... [19:56] * Chinook drops the wrench into his hoof and holds it to his mouth. Muffling some words along the lines of "Ow fuck" [19:57] [obligitory joke about brits and their dental care] [19:57] [*Obligatory] [19:58] * Al_Dente is now known as Al_errands [19:58] [Obligeytorey] [19:59] * Chinook pokes his tongue at the wobbly dentist's bonus to assess the damage. [20:00] Your tooth is fine but a bit wobby, what does the party do? [20:01] * Phoenix_Down continues to clog the machine so more snakies don't get out [20:01] [How wide is this panel? And will the hole and the glass shred any hoof?] [20:01] [That tries to pass through?] [20:03] The hole is big enough for a hoof to pass in... however the crystal continues to pulse and glow with sickly energy, looking menacing. Phoe can hear more and more hissing from beneath each cloud as the injectors continue to squirt the purple liquid into the vats. [20:04] "This probably won't do much but....guys?" [20:05] * Weathervane puts her hoof on her chin in thought while Chinook handles the glass pane, passing a glance to the cylinders and generator a moment as her eyes drift about the room. She finally turns her focus to the purple glow from the hole in the pane, unsettled by the crystal inside. "Hm?" [20:06] "We need to get that outta there. Any suggestions or should I go with my dumb idea of wrapping my hoof up and just reaching for it?" [20:07] * Weathervane peers in to see what the crystal could be attached to. "Any way you think you could knock it loose with something? Doesn't seem like the kind of thing I'd want to directly touch, either..." [20:08] * Chinook grips the hilt of his sword and slowly unsheathes, raising his eyebrows in acknowledgement. "'urf a 'ot." With that, he pokes the blade inside and jabs at the crystal. [20:09] !roll d20 [20:09] 2 == 2 [20:09] The crystal is hit by the sword, Chinook having to reach in and luckily avoiding the glass. Chin roll d20 [20:10] !roll d20 [20:10] 19 == 19 [20:10] !roll d5 [20:10] 2 == 2 [20:11] "'inn I 'ot 'umfin!" He mutters out loud with his speech impeded by his sword's hilt. [20:12] "any luck over there guys?" [20:13] Chinook's sword contacts with the crystal, seemingly disturbing the energy holding it in place as it slips out of the cloud case surrounding it. The glow fades as it falls, landing with a thunk somewhere inside the machine. However as the sword hits the gem, a powerful jolt of magic sweeps through the sword and into Chin's face, making his muscles seize up and singing a fair few of his taste buds for 2 damage. [20:14] "Ah!" He calls out, dropping his sword and baring his tongue out before covering his mouth with a hoof. [20:15] "no don't drop your!.... sword..." [20:15] Chin's sword passes through the clouds of the machine as he drops it, the metal thing falling out of sight. As the crystal glow cuts out, a low whirring is heard as the generator shuts down, the injectors beginning to get slower before stopping completely and not injecting any more into the vats below. Phoenix can hear a large amount if hissing from within the hoppers, and the snakes appear to be quite numerous beneath the clouds. [20:15] "....Duskie's gonna kill me." He remarks as he looks at the floor. [20:15] "good work... but we might have another problem here... looooots of snakes" [20:16] "At least we shut it down, right?" [20:17] [sorry, on da phone for a minnit] [20:19] [So, if anyone GM's a quest in the seven stones plateau, they should be able to find a khopesh stuck in the ground, lel] [20:19] [Unless...] [20:19] * Weathervane backs away cautiously to observe how the crystal reacts to the intrusion, concerned by the jolt before seeing that at least Chinook is alright, if disarmed. She surveys the inside of the crystal's container and sighs as the generator finally manages to turn off, though the hissing from inside the clouds sends a shudder through her. "Mmh... now, where to go from here..." [20:21] The place appears to be growing quite dark, the evening must be setting in outside. Do you investigate the factory? or head outside before the snakes break out? [20:21] * GoldenTouchGM kinda NPC follows allong [20:21] * Chinook backs away from the generator, looking for any other entry ways aside from the way they came in. "Gotta be something. Whatever it is, we gotta be quick because of those snakes!" [20:22] "Golden, blow the mist away again please" [20:22] * GoldenTouchGM blows the mist away [20:22] The mist sweeps away from the floor, revealing white hardened clouds. It does not replenish this time, as mist no longer leaks from the hoppers. [20:23] * Phoenix_Down stuffs the cloud layer down tight one more time, before looking around the floor, for tools or anything loose he can take home [20:24] "Hey, it's....working!" He proceeds to blow away the remaining mist with his own wings. [20:24] There is nought but white flooring as far as Phoe can see [20:25] * Phoenix_Down looks to the loose handrails, floating up gently and trying to break something off [20:27] The handrail seems sturdy, not coming off to Phoenix's prying. [Hissing intensifies] [20:27] "Guys?" [20:27] "I think we got bigger worries right now apart from some loose fittings..." [20:27] * Phoenix_Down looks around angrily "gotta be something... some sample of this cloud structure I can take back goddamnit" [20:28] * Weathervane nods and smiles as she can finally see the cloud floor, thinking a bit as she looks around the room with the little light left. "Lessee... ideally, there'd be a replacement power source that wasn't so... uh, sickly-looking. Not sure where in this place there'd be one, if there's any." She looks over to the blocked hoppers as the hissing gets louder. "But yeah... don't think we'd [20:28] * Weathervane have the time to explore for one even if it were around." [20:30] "Let's head outside and assess the damage. If it's not too severe, we head back inside and salvage the rest." He says uneasily. [20:32] "Sounds good..." [20:32] * Phoenix_Down grunts in frustration as he finds literally nothing, not even the smallest thing rolling around on cloud floor and not falling through "fuck this is a bust... lets get out of here before those snakes bust out and roast us" [20:33] * Chinook hightails it out via the entryway, flying along as he does so until he reaches the lobby and exits the main building, hovering from some distance, around near the archway and observing. [20:34] is the party now all outside? [20:34] * Phoenix_Down flies back through to the main room, putting out a cloud wall at the door from the factory to the lobby, then heads through the front door and repeats the process [20:35] * Weathervane picks herself up and glides over to the outside of the factory not far behind Chinook, letting Phoenix do his work while she regroups outside the front door. [20:35] Riiight lemme right for a bit [20:36] Write jesus fuck brain* [20:36] [inb4 explosion] [20:41] The party reaches the outside, now seeing the darkened city as the day wears to its close. Looking up at the factory chimenys, the party can see that it is no longer spewing out the horrible looking stormclouds, and the wall of blackness that prevented them from leaving has been weakened slightly, no longer an impenetrable barrier, the clouds seem patchy and disjointed, no longer being replenished constantly. However, analysis of the rest of the wall the party can see shows that it still remains strong... there must be more cloud manufactories dotted around the city. The way to exit is now clear however, and the street they came in on, along with the rest of the neighbourhood seems silent, the snakes not following the party. Walls of cloud still block exploration further than this area at this current time... maybe the storms will disappate later... [20:42] "Looks like we're just getting started...." He says, surveying the city. [20:43] * Phoenix_Down looks up and around at the cloud walls and the weakening cloud top overhead "how big is this place..." noting that now he needs to speak with Cheren on a book about cloud-steel forging [20:43] * Strong_Metal (~Waveform@cpe-24-58-58-149.twcny.res.rr.com) Quit (Quit: Leaving) [20:44] * Strong_Metal (~Waveform@cpe-24-58-58-149.twcny.res.rr.com) has joined #FourCannonPnP [20:47] * Able_Tome is now known as Able_Tome|AFK [20:48] Night is falling, do you get home to your kids? Or stay and be an irresponsible father? [20:50] * Weathervane rubs her head wearily as she looks around to the relatively calmer city, though it seems there's still a lot of work to be done before it's completely taken care of. She nods gravely before heaving a sigh. "Mmh... well, gotta start somewhere!" She surveys some of the darkened clouds with a faint smile. "Might take a while, but we can try to patch things up here..." [20:51] * Phoenix_Down nods "we will have to before this storm reaches home... but theres nothing more we can do here now, lets go home, rest, and get another party ready to come back" [20:51] * Chinook clutches his side and grimaces "Right. And I'd better get patched up." [20:52] [in a weeks time Phoe, because yeah, you lot waited a week or so to send someone else :D] [20:52] * GoldenTouchGM stays and is an irresponsible father [20:52] "I know a certain farmer who's gonna wanna see this...." [20:52] [fuk u quick[ [20:52] * Phoenix_Down snickers "and weather and Chinook need new weapons, haha" flapping his wings "alright, lets get home..." [20:53] "You guys go ahead, I have things I wanna check out...." he stays here because he's already done it IC and needs to complete the timelock circle [20:53] * Chinook rolls his eyes with a groan and follows not too far behind, his mind still flooded with more questions than answers. [20:54] And so the party departs from the city, flying out of the weakening cloud walls and into the evening sky, bound for the little village they call home. However one member stays, the golden pegasus staying the night in one of the abandoned houses, getting little sleep as the sound of hissing disturbs his slumber.
