Charity calming down at this point, takes several deep breaths from having run all the way here. She continues to ignore Carrot. "Leave Carrot for a minute Khenal. Khenal, I wouldn't trust anypony with this job more than you. And what do you mean mentally? What has happened? I've seen you best demons with your mind. What could effect you that badly."

(Has Charity been told about the poisioning? If yes then she also says the following, without pausing.)

"And I realize that the posioning might take you off your hooves for awhile but we have several great doctors here you'll be back on your hooves in no time. You don't need to resign just take a few days or weeks off. You'll be fine."

At this point she finally stops ranting enough that somepony else can get a word in.

((PSST KHENAL IS IN HIS PRIVATE QUARTERS. Also, music for scene http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sty7tvJfR8I))

I have fixed the error!

Edit: Although in the actual fortress design and thus in my head, Khenals private quarters are behind his office and thus only accessible by going through the office. I guess I never really made that clear to anyone else though.

He has also given Charity his letter of resignation as Captain of the Guard, and is prepared to argue if she doesn't want to accept it ;)


 :o
Charity gallops down to see Khenal in his office packing up private quarters, after turning in his resignation. The letter is violently held in a tight telekinetic grasp. Ignoring Carrot and anypony else that might be there, she unfurls the letter and shoves it toward Khenal. "Khenal what is the meaning of this! Why are you resigning!?"


Edit: Correction!

(Going to play some DF now I think. A few things I wish to make clear. One Friesden is being trusted to move around freely now correct? You have told Charity you're letting a convicted murderer free right? Second. If the answer to the first is yes, I'm going to try and isolate the two ponies [Khenal and Friesden] together for a while, to see if we can make de magics happen in game.)

She looks around for a water source.

(The well is in the hospital, right next to the beds.)

Alen is actually a she, and a unicorn if that ever becomes important.

((I didn't officially, but I was the first one to control him directly, correct?))

Correct, but he's an NPC and I'd rather he'd stay as such. His job means he comes up often, but I'd rather not have him be fully owned by one player. Just sort of used by whoever when it comes up. Specifically, when Bubbles isn't available and the plot needs a doctor.

(thetyler! Your alive! I had pronounced you dead! Glad to see you're back.
As you may have noticed Venture is all grown up. I had asked for someone to take him as an apprentice or something and Doctor Bubbles stood up to do that. However, I haven't actually played the game since he did and thus if you have any different ideas about Venture's future please say so.)

where is that damn doctor!?"

Should Doctor Bubbles not be online. I would point out that in my last fortress update I noted that the NPC Doctor Alen had been released from his punishment. So One of you could assume control of him and let him try and save her.

(Aw you killed Kil, oh well, she was going to be redundant when Venture starts working with Bubbles anyway. Quick question for our resident mad-pony. Did you kill your foals too?)

(More game reports, feels weird posting them during your scene, but you guys never give me a chance to do otherwise, so here you go.)

Charity's Journal 12 Timber, 98

A scream was heard in the caverns, it seems Ozar Ledalath has returned, and attacked another one of our fisherponies, Psycho Carrot
(I'm assuming he lives through the current situation.) was the first on the scene, and fired a bolt at the beast, which missed, and the creature dived back into the water. It then resurfaced nearby and he fired again, this time Psycho hit the monster in one of his left legs. The creature than dived again, and is hiding under the ground, in an old flooded tunnel. We're going to try and trap it in there.

Charity's Journal 13th Timber, 98

Before our plan to trap the beast was ready, it resurfaced, and attacked another marks pony, from Psycho's squad. Cryptson, who happened to be in the area, saw the commotion, and ran to help. With a few strikes of his pick the creature was finished. The fight was won.

Additional happy news today. Pillomino and the other last of the prisoners from the export ban incident have been officially released, they're all free. I'm going to invite Pillomino and Thundersplinter, to have a drink with me, like we used to, but well...I'll understand if they don't want to be around me.

Speaking of Thunder, I saw her the other day and the infection in her leg seems to have completely healed. Additionally, she was getting around without a crutch. I'm glad she's better.


Charity's Journal 17th Timber 98

A diplomat from the cave ponies has come to Glitterglen to speak with us, and has brought a caravan of merchants with him.

Charity's Journal 22nd Timber 98

It seems the cave ponies have finally forgiven us for that little insident a couple years back with the cloth and leather, because this year they brought so many gems, and so much metal that the whole Trade Depot was shining. Naturally, we bought as much metal as we could, along with a few other necessities, gypsum powder, sand for our glassworks, uncut gemstones, cloth and leather, etc.


(Venture has finally reached adulthood.



Since thetyler101 hasn't posted in forever, and hasn't responded to my email. I will assume he's dead until proven wrong. Thus we have a named pony who needs a big decision made [what career he will pursue] and no one to really make that decision. If no one has any fun ideas for the character, [please don't Master him up. Tyler may return from the dead at some point] then I'll just put him wherever, I really could use a another pony in the militia or the guard, but that doesn't really seem to be in the line of what the character would have done. So, if anyone wants a bumbling Alicorn apprentice speak up, if not I will have to decide for him myself.)

(The next game update is below. I'm not quite done for the night yet, so expect another in a few hours. Feel free to finish your current scene before paying any attention to these.)

Charity's Journal 28th Limestone 98

Seems that we had a jail break today. No it's not who you might expect. It was Ms. Pillomino. She used her knowledge of masonry to find a weak point in the cell and make a break for it. Although she didn't try to flee the town. Just ran to the bar for a drink, before Khenal showed up and took her back. She did not resist. Seemed she really really wanted a drink.


(The Nurse Kil had given every pony water except for Pillomino, and then ran off to get a drink herself and then went on break, and then went to a party. With the Doctor busy treating injuries from the last ambush, and Pillomino very dehydrated, and nopony else bringing water, death was a possibility, so I deconstructed her chain, and when that was done, she ran for the drink stockpile, and got one before Khenal dragged her back to one of the new cells.)

5th Sandstone 98

A horrible creature has been spotted in the deep. The militia and guards are working together to try and lure it into an ambush.




10th Sandstone 98

The beast has so far proven elusive. In other news, I think the confinement is getting to Pillomino. She tried to throw a party in her cell. It didn't go well.



Charity's Journal 18th Sandstone 98

The beast of the the below, we thought we had it trapped on the southern portion of the caverns, until it swam around our troops and ambushed a fisherpegasus named Udar Gleamedgrass, it grabbed him and tried to drag him into the water, but he scrambled away, though it relieved him of his shoe, which then used to beat him more, until the militia arrived and he was able to escape. Thought the creature likewise escaped into the lake. The militia is stationed by the water, hoping it will resurface.

Charity's Journal 20th Sandstone 98

The creature was spotted heading north away form the fortress, and so, we are relaxing security to allow the troops a break, as they have been on high alert for the past ten days non-stop.

Charity's Journal 28th Sandstone 98

Cryptson has been parading around in a fine suit of Bismuth Bronze and Steel Armour, and carrying a exceptional Steel Pick. He hasn't left me or the kids alone since the incident. It's sweet, and I'm happy to keep him close, but he can be kind of smothering, although, I'd rather him stay to close, than too far until this assassin is caught.


("Warning - while you were typing 38 new replies have been posted. You may wish to review your post." Wow, this thread moves hella fast.)

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

It's an artifact earring, it must menace with spikes of something.  Or spikes of several somethings :P

Surprisingly, no, I'll re post the description again below incase anypony wants to see it without backtracking some 50 pages, but it is called "The Magicians of Violence." It's almost like the pony who made it knew it was going to be weaponized.

(You think having Psycho as a friend is going to be rough Khenal. Charity actually trusts the madpony enough to not only make him a captain, but to move him into the room across the hall from her family.)

The night after Psycho's attack. Charity returns home, explains the events to Cryptson, and everypony retires to sleep. Well every pony except for one.

'Yes' thinks the tiny blue unicorn, with the Cobalt eyes, 'finally everypony is asleep.'

The tiny foal pulls out the old book he had stashed away, his mother had not noticed the missing book yet, but he knew eventually she would, and she would assume he had taken it. He needed a place to hide it, but it couldn't be in their room. He stuck the book in a bag and quitely left the room.

'Where can I put it that no pony will ever find it?' he wondered to himself. And that's when he had an idea.

Cobalt, walked to the surface, he looked up, it was a full moon. He'd never seen such a sight before, having never been allowed out on the surface at night. After enjoying the scene for a while he went to the first floor of the wooden tower. 'I must do this quietly' he thinks, 'Miss Thundersplinter's is asleep up stairs and I don't need her to find me.'

With his magic he carefully pulls a wooden plank from the wall, and finds an empty space.

'Okay book, I'll be back when this assassin business is over and then I'll have the time to read you.' He hides the book in the opening, replaces the wooden plank, and returns home.


Charity's Journal (The day after Psycho attacks her, but written before Carrots new episode.)

I can't believe that Carrot would attack me like that. However, Khenal's report says he was under the effects of some sort of hallucinogenic, so I'll have to forgive him. This assassin is getting more dangerous however, first he lays traps that could've hurt anypony, then he makes my own guards go berserk. Khenal needs to catch this pony soon. I hope he found some clues when he disabled the trap in my office.

((Hey, do you have any ideas for names I could use for Equestrian Naval Vessels? I'm modding HoI2.))

How about naming one of them "Kelpies"? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelpie

To quote The Wiki
"The kelpie is a supernatural water horse from Celtic folklore that is believed to haunt the rivers and lochs of Scotland and Ireland; the name may be from Scottish Gaelic cailpeach or colpach "heifer, colt"."

Meanwhile, at the Hall of Justice I mean Charity's family's room. Cryptson has readied his pick and is waiting by the door. He would like to run to the Hospital where he fears his wife may be in danger but is fearful to leave his children alone, in case the assassin were to strike here as well.

However, as there is only one way in or out of this room, he has turned all of his attention to the door. The young unicorn colt, Cobalt, sees this as his chance. While nopony is looking he makes his way over to his mother's bookshelf, and levitates a singular old red leather bound book, with a black leather strap binding it shut, with a silver clasp. He has long wanted to read this one, but his mother wouldn't allow it. With eveypony distracted he floats it over to his bed and hides it under his mattress. No pony is the wiser.


The guard hurries Charity from the room, as they pass the two guards outside, Charity barks at them. "What are you doing standing around. Go help Khenal!"

The guard takes Charity home.


(And with that I bow out for tonight. Good luck everypony.)
