For those who didn't see this side of things, here's a log of the ritual that was undertaken before the assault on the keep began. One suggestion for future such things... it might be a good idea to put a short roundtime on something like these amulets. As it was, they resulted in a whole lot of scroll.

[DiSilveron, Front Gate]
Grand alabaster lions flank a regal wrought-iron gate that is accented in heavy silver leaf.

Lord Grigoire's group came through the wrought-iron gate.

> look trethom

You see Sage Trethom Hutto, a Human Moon Mage.
Trethom has an oval face, gold-flecked topaz eyes and a beak-like nose. He is bald, with dark skin and a burly build.
He is slightly under average height for a Human.
He appears to be mature.
He is in good shape.

He is wearing a deep amber velvet robe sashed with a golden silk braid, a crystal amulet carved with gladiolus blossoms surrounded by intricate sigils, a slender bone ring etched with the crest of the Moon Mage Guild, a dirty canvas sack embroidered with a gladiolus blossom and some thin-soled sandals with worn leather straps.

Grigoire says, "I'm going to make this as short as possible. We are preparing the final assault now and will be heading out within the next few moments.

Grigoire says, "Trethom here will be leading a ritual to attune the key to Sorrow's Keep so that our forces can enter. All who are less comfortable fighting directly as requested to join in the ritual. The more energy we have, the faster the attunement, so the mages say."

Grigoire says, "Fighters, the military and our assembled forces will be leaving soon. Group up if you have not, and wait for my signal. Then we march!"

Grigoire says, "This war will end, once and for all!"

Grigoire says, "Group amongst yourselves. I will be with the army."

Trethom says, "Those less comfortable in combat, please join me for the ritual. All the rest follow your commanders."

Trethom says, "Those for the ritual join me now, we will head onto DiSilveron grounds momentarily."

Trethom says, "To the rest of you, best of luck, warriors."

Trethom says, "We will do our part."

A servant nods deferentially as you follow Trethom out of the room.

[DiSilveron, Topiary]
A corridor of emerald green grass passes between two upright rows of hedges trimmed in whimsical fashion. Elegant Elvish workmanship is apparent in the living architecture of this most interesting garden border.
You also see a wrought iron gate, a granite pathway leading to a massive fountain and a floral peacock decorated with shimmering pansies which has a long tail of lemon grass.
Also here: Archivist Morlen, Druid Thanious, Healer Cristalyn, Phonk, Peon Zypheris who is surrounded by a shimmering shield, Lunar Mage Marcul, Vieira, Alley Fighter Allye, Commando Raeyel, Willower, Duskwalker Zesoma, Kawh, Scout Turuk, Annandale, Forest Specter Toridahn, Troupe Prodigy Tirost, Seer Eyuve and Lord Grigoire.
Obvious paths: east, west.

Sage Trethom's group wandered up a granite pathway leading to a massive fountain.

[DiSilveron, Chancellor's Gardens]
To either side of a silver-flecked granite pathway lies the impeccable lawn which rolls and eddies gently over a vast tract of DiSilveron land. The great, gabled manor stands like a castle in the midst of this extensive carpet of green, on a rise at the center of the property. Tall, thick, primeval forest can be seen in the distance, bordering the horizon to which this lawn appears to stretch.
You also see a massive fountain in the middle of the pathway.
Also here: Accompanist Poose, Slepowren, Holy Blade Varalia, Peon Zypheris who is surrounded by a shimmering shield, Apothecary Lilustra, Lunar Mage Marcul, Forest Specter Toridahn, Scout Turuk, Ovorion, Alley Fighter Allye, Hodierna's Fist Kaelie, Healer Cristalyn, Sticky Fingers Nakori, Vieira, Archivist Morlen, Willower, Vesher, Annandale, Commando Raeyel, Phonk, Troupe Prodigy Tirost, Kawh, Duskwalker Zesoma, Druid Thanious, Seer Eyuve and Sage Trethom.
Obvious paths: northwest.

Trethom casually observes the area.

Zypheris paces back and forth.

Kaelie stands near Marcul.

Trethom says, "This should suit our needs."

Trethom turns his gaze to the sky for a few moments.

Marcul moves over to guard Kaelie.

Kaelie says to Marcul, "I'll just be here. Near you, while Maz is off fighting."

Marcul nods to Kaelie.

Trethom opens his dirty sack.

Phonk says, "Just let me know how to help, since I don't do the magic thing."

Kaelie grins at Marcul.

Marcul grins at Morlen.

Zypheris shifts his weight.

Trethom says, "Thank you all for your assistance. This ritual simply could never be accomplished without the support of a group."

Allye nods to Trethom.

Zypheris nods to Trethom.

Cristalyn nods politely to Trethom.

Morlen grins at Marcul.

Tirost cracks his knuckles.

Trethom says, "You will each need..."

Trethom gets a crystal amulet carved with gladiolus blossoms surrounded by intricate sigils from inside his dirty sack.

Trethom says, "One of these."

Toridahn peers quizzically at Trethom.

Willower stretches out a hand imploringly to Trethom.

Zypheris blinks.

Allye nibbles her lip thoughtfully.

<cutting out a lot of Trethom handing over amulets to people>

Willower smiles.

Kaelie nods to Trethom.

Ovorion nods to Trethom.

Varalia softly says, "Thank you."

Poose says, "Doesn't seem magical."

Zypheris nods to Trethom.

Phonk says to Poose, "Neither does a good pie."

Varalia softly says, "Its very pretty."

Lilustra gazes at her amulet.

Trethom says to Poose, "It is and it isn't. It's something a bit beyond."

Ovorion says to Phonk, "'I do love a good pie."

Turuk says, "Maybe it just assists in direction."

Turuk smiles.

Turuk asks, "It's not gonna eat me, is it?"

Trethom says, "We will need these to focus your energy for the attunement."

Trethom says, "And also to hide us from Elpalzi scrying."

Willower seems to be waiting for something.

Varalia taps her crystal amulet and it flashes with a light as brilliant as the stars!

You say to Trethom, "I'd be interested in hearing the details sometime, when things are less pressing."

Varalia softly exclaims, "Oo!"

Varalia softly says, "Mine just flashed."

Marcul nods to you.

Varalia grins, revealing her dimples.

Marcul gives you a measured bow, deepening it ever so slightly to display additional respect.

Allye grins at Varalia.

Trethom offers you a crystal amulet carved with gladiolus blossoms surrounded by intricate sigils. Enter ACCEPT to accept the offer or DECLINE to decline it. The offer will expire in 30 seconds.

You accept Trethom's offer and are now holding a crystal amulet carved with gladiolus blossoms surrounded by intricate sigils.

J> look amulet

You see nothing unusual.

Turuk rubs their crystal amulet, causing a soft Xibar-hued glow to emanate from within the otherwise clear stone.

Allye says, "Thank you."

Kaelie nods graciously at Trethom, giving him a polite smile.

Turuk taps his crystal amulet and it flashes with a light as brilliant as the stars!

Cristalyn smiles at Trethom.

Kaelie says to Trethom, "Thank you."

Poose asks, "Do we wear or hold them for the ritual?"

Nakori beams!

Cristalyn softly says to Trethom, "Thank you."

Turuk says, "Oh, it's glorious."

Zypheris inhales a great swallow of air.

Turuk says, "I pray it doesn't break."

Zesoma softly says to Turuk, "Wait till you hear the story of where it came from."

J> focus crystal amulet

You focus your magical senses on a crystal amulet carved with gladiolus blossoms surrounded by intricate sigils.
The crystal amulet has no discernible magical pattern.
Roundtime: 6 sec.

Allye rubs their crystal amulet, causing a soft Xibar-hued glow to emanate from within the otherwise clear stone.

Turuk blanches.

Cristalyn softly asks Trethom, "We'll need to wear it?"

Ovorion nods at Turuk, obviously agreeing with his views.

Trethom says, "Yes, you can wear them."

Allye shifts uncomfortably for a moment.

You hang a crystal amulet carved with gladiolus blossoms surrounded by intricate sigils around your neck.

Zypheris paces back and forth.

J> study crystal amulet

Turuk says, "I hope it's not a "Formed from the spirit of a dead Ranger." sort of tale."

As you study the amulet, you think you could probably rub, tap and push it.

Willower says, "Sorta foggy."


<Here's where the game crashed>

[DiSilveron, Front Gate]
Grand alabaster lions flank a regal wrought-iron gate that is accented in heavy silver leaf. To either side of these gargantuan works of art are high hedges of jasmine intertwined with woodrose, which continue on for several yards before banking out of sight. A silver-tinged, multi-gabled roof is visible just above the hedges.
You also see a Zoluren guardsman, a Zoluren company, a freshly-planted pathway and the wrought-iron gate.
Also here: Apothecary Lilustra, Prince Belirendrick who is surrounded by a shimmering shield, Sage Trethom and Lord Grigoire.
Obvious paths: none.

Trethom says, "Those for the ritual join me now, we will head onto DiSilveron grounds momentarily."

J> look beli
You see Prince Belirendrick Sorvendig of Zoluren, a Human.
He has an angular face with deep-set viridian eyes and a sharply defined jaw. His auburn hair is short and thick, and is worn in a simple, utilitarian style. He has fair skin and an athletic build that retains only the slightest hint of youthful ungainliness.
He appears to be an adult and of above average height for a human.
He is in good shape.

He is wearing a necklace of aganylosh'a beads interspersed with anloral amulets, a white glaes great helm, a regal longcoat of frost white jacquard flecked with silvered blue accents, a white glaes crown, a brightwork greatsword scabbard with gladiolus blossoms down its length, a pale cerulean silk shirt buttoned with rounds of white glaes, some white glaes full plate emblazoned with the crest of Zoluren, a braided cambrinth armband, some white glaes plate gauntlets, a polished leather sword belt, a pair of crisp dark blue trousers and some blue-black leather boots.

Trethom nods to Kaelie.

<cutting various chatter as people regroup>

Belirendrick says, "Please join up again, we will be leaving fairly shortly."

Trethom says, "Warriors to your commanders. Those for the ritual join me."

Belirendrick says, "We will be leaving in just a moment now."

Trethom says, "The ritual is for anyone, you do not need to be magical. It is for those who want to contribute but who may not want to engage in direct combat."

Belirendrick says, "We are heading out now."

Trethom says, "We can delay no longer. Best of luck, warriors, we will do our part."

Trethom nods.

Klines says, "Good luck, everyone."

Cristalyn waves.

Belirendrick nods to Trethom.

Azante says, "Good luck all,."

Kaelie exclaims, "Good luck all!"

A servant nods deferentially as you follow Trethom out of the room.

Obvious paths: northwest.

Trethom nods.

Nakori's ears perk up happily.

Trethom asks, "Who still needs an amulet?"

<cutting people asking for and being given amulets>

Varalia softly says, "I think if you couldn't handle the elpazi walking around recently its best you're here instead."

Eyuve gives Trethom a slight nod.

Apophys bows to Trethom.

Kharybell says, "I'm also really confused about whatever it is we are doing."

Ovorion quietly says to Kharybell, "'One thing at a time, I think."

Ovorion smiles at Kharybell.

Kharybell says, "I just wanted to come along to help with healing."

Kharybell shrugs.

Trethom says to Kharybell, "We will gather energy for an attunement ritual."

Trethom says, "There is magic preventing our warriors from storming the Keep."

Bryanny nods.

Trethom says, "This ritual will disrupt that magic and unbind the foul enchantment from the key."

Kharybell nods.

Trethom says, "You all can wear your amulets."

Allye nods.

Varalia taps her crystal amulet and it flashes with a light as brilliant as the stars!

Willower asks, "What do we need to do?"

Trethom asks, "Is there anyone else who needs an amulet?"

Tirost bobs a brief, respectful bow towards Trethom.

Kaeta grins at Kaelie.

Trethom asks, "Anyone else?"

Trethom raises an eyebrow.

Trethom says, "I'd rather not see anyones mind and body torn asunder."

Ovorion nods at Trethom, obviously agreeing with his views.

Nakori gulps.

Allye nibbles her lip thoughtfully.

Kaelie says, "That does sound grim."

Varalia softly says, "Er."

Phonk says, "I'd prefer to avoid that."

Kaelie nods to Trethom.

Nakori meekly asks, "Should I have two?"

Ovorion laughs!

Allye giggles at Nakori.

Nakori meekly says, "I mean... I only have the one... but maybe two is better."

Trethom says, "Please, settle yourselves now and we will begin."

Trethom inhales a great swallow of air.

Bryanny shudders.

Eyuve gives a slight nod.

Trethom turns his gaze to the sky for a few moments.

Phonk gives a courteous nod and tips his hat politely.

Trethom begins a low chanting of mystical phrases, raising his hands skyward.

Allye trills, her ears relaxing minutely back against her head.

Trethom's voice drops in pitch and he intones:

"With this moonlight, we bring our energy to the fore. With this moonlight, we cleanse the key!"

<cutting out lots and lots of people interacting with their amulets>

Trethom rubs their crystal amulet, causing a soft Xibar-hued glow to emanate from within the otherwise clear stone.

Trethom says, "Yes, rub your amulets now."

Willower grins at Zesoma.

Trethom holds aloft a Yavash-hued ruby and a Katamba-black diamond and continues to chant.

Trethom's voice drops in pitch and he intones:

"With this moonlight, we bring our energy to the fore. With this moonlight, we cleanse the key!"


Trethom rubs their crystal amulet, causing a soft Xibar-hued glow to emanate from within the otherwise clear stone.

Trethom says, "Yes, continue."

<lots more amulet rubbing from everyone>

The light from the amulets is drawn towards Trethom and into the two gems in his hands. Within mere moments, the ruby and the diamond both explode in a dazzling display of multi-hued moonbeams!

Trethom slowly empties his lungs.

Trethom stands before you, his arms still raised high, as his chanting continues.

Bryanny says, "Ooh fireworks."

Trethom's voice drops in pitch and he intones:

"With this starlight, we bring our energy to the fore. With this starlight, we bind the key!"


Trethom says, "Starlight now."

Trethom taps his crystal amulet and it flashes with a light as brilliant as the stars!

<lots of amulet tapping>

Trethom says, "Tap your amulets to draw the starlight."

Nakori covers her eyes with her hand.

His arms now lowered, Trethom continues his chanting. He brings a small burin from his sack and begins to motion as if he were inscribing some unseen thing with elaborate symbols.

<continued tapping>

Trethom's voice drops in pitch and he intones:

"With this starlight, we bring our energy to the fore. With this starlight, we bind the key!"

<much more tapping>

Trethom says, "Continue."

Trethom taps his crystal amulet and it flashes with a light as brilliant as the stars!

A sudden wave of nausea sweeps over you, and you feel as though someone or something is prying at your mind!

A sudden wave of nausea sweeps over you, and you feel as though someone or something is prying at your mind!

A sudden wave of nausea sweeps over you, and you feel as though someone or something is prying at your mind!

Trethom gasps!

You shake your head.

Allye squints.

Ovorion winces.

Trethom's face twists in revulsion, but he somehow steadies himself enough to yell out, "Quickly! Push against your amulet with two fingers! Alret's forces are attempting to disrupt the ritual!"

You press two fingers against your crystal amulet and feel a surge of energy rush through you, leaving your mind and will even more resolute in its wake!

Trethom presses two fingers against his crystal amulet and a fierce look of determination fills his eyes!

<lots of pushing of the amulets>

Trethom gasps!

Trethom coughs.

Trethom kneels down.

Trethom exclaims, "We will not be detered!"

Trethom presses two fingers against his crystal amulet and a fierce look of determination fills his eyes!

Trethom stands up.

<continued amulet pushing>

The nausea passes and along with it the feeling of mental invasion.

Tirost grits his teeth.

Trethom renews his chanting and tightens his grip on his burin, now making slashing motions at the air around him!

Trethom's voice drops in pitch and he intones:

"With our will, we bring our energy to the fore. With our will, we connect a mind to the key!"


Trethom's voice drops in pitch and he intones:

"With our will, we bring our energy to the fore. With our will, we connect a mind to the key!"


You feel a sustained pulling sensation, as if something were being drawn out of you, yet no pain accompanies it.

A pale glow begins to form at the tip of Trethom's burin, growing steadily brighter!

Cristalyn softly asks, "Still pushing?"

Though Trethom continues to move the burin around with ferocity, he suddenly throws his head back and you feel your body lurch to do the same!

With a final shout, Trethom repeats, "With our will, we bring our energy to the fore. With our will, we connect a mind to the key!"

Apophys is stunned!
Zesoma is stunned!
You are stunned!
Ovorion is stunned!

Kharybell is stunned!
Varalia is stunned!
Eyvve is stunned!
Trethom is stunned!


A stunned Trethom slowly tips over, falling on his face!
Trethom shakes off the stun.

<repeat for everyone else>

Trethom says, "It is done..."

Nakori drools.

Allye slowly empties her lungs.

Cristalyn beams!

Phonk lets out a hearty cheer for Trethom!

Ovorion lets out a loud "Huzzah!"

Eyvve flicks a bit of lint off her chainmail dress, ensuring that the garment is suitable for presentation.

Kharybell grins, revealing her dimples.

Allye nods to Trethom.

Trethom slowly empties his lungs.

Varalia softly exclaims to Trethom, "Well done!"

Tirost rubs his head.

Kaelie praises Trethom.

Cristalyn slowly empties her lungs.

Nakori sits up.

Bryanny gets an impish expression on her face, and lets out a hearty cheer.

Apophys lets out a hearty cheer for Trethom!

You slowly and deliberately empty your filled lungs.

Tirost smiles at Trethom.

Kaelie asks, "Do we need to do more?"

Cristalyn praises Trethom.

Trethom says, "Now we pray the warriors can manage their part."

Nakori wobbles, looking a bit faint.

Bryanny says, "Ahh."

Ovorion nods to Trethom.

Bryanny kneels down and touches her lips with the tips of her fingers.

Apophys asks, "Would it be possible to join them, at this point?"

Trethom stands up.

Ovorion nods at Apophys, obviously agreeing with his views.

(Nakori wobbles over to the fountain and dips her head under the water.)

Bryanny glances heavenward a moment and utters a desperate prayer.

Phonk says, "There's enough steel and magic bearing down on the keep to destroy a moderately sized town. So even odds."

Allye rubs her right arm.

Nakori lets out an exasperated, "Pbpbpb."

Kharybell asks, "Will a triage location be set up?"

Trethom says, "Let us head back to the road."

Cristalyn nods to Trethom.

Apophys nods.

Bryanny nods.

Trethom says, "Then you can each make your way to the location best suited for you from here."

Kharybell nods.

Bryanny asks, "A triage location?"

Allye nods politely.

Turuk asks, "Are we able to keep the amulet?"

Trethom says to Turuk, "Yes."

Trethom smiles.

Scyte taps his crystal amulet and it flashes with a light as brilliant as the stars!

Varalia softly says, "Yay."

Turuk smiles.

Varalia grins, revealing her dimples.

Ovorion grins at Trethom.

Cristalyn softly says to Trethom, "Thank you."

Trethom says, "A memento of your efforts."

Varalia presses two fingers against her crystal amulet and a fierce look of determination fills her eyes!

Bryanny smiles.

Apophys smiles.

Ovorion says to Trethom, "'I shall treasure it, thank you."

Sage Trethom's group wandered down a granite pathway.

[DiSilveron, Topiary]
A corridor of emerald green grass passes between two upright rows of hedges trimmed in whimsical fashion. Elegant Elvish workmanship is apparent in the living architecture of this most interesting garden border.
You also see a floral peacock decorated with shimmering pansies which has a long tail of lemon grass, a granite pathway leading to a massive fountain and a wrought iron gate.

Obvious paths: east, west.

Bryanny curtsies.

Willower smiles.

Sage Trethom's group went through a wrought iron gate.

[DiSilveron, Front Gate]
Several torches flicker from beyond a wrought-iron gate that makes its sudden appearance in a high, jasmine-scented hedge. Two ominous statues, silhouetted against the lighter night sky, sparkle with faint traces of silver which glisten in the scant light. Their eyes glow with an inner fire.
You also see a Zoluren guardsman, a Zoluren company, a freshly-planted pathway and the wrought-iron gate.
Also here: Ovorion, Scyte, Healer Cristalyn, Hodierna's Fist Kaelie, Apothecary Lilustra, Tirost, Alley Fighter Allye, Scout Turuk, Willower, Vesher, Seer Eyuve, Archivist Morlen, Apophys who is surrounded by a shimmering shield, Healer Adept Kaeta, Sticky Fingers Nakori, Blessed Bryanny, Phonk, War Healer Kharybell, Holy Blade Varalia, Cavalier Eyvve, Duskwalker Zesoma, Sage Trethom, Lunar Mage Marcul, Accompanist Poose, Forest Specter Toridahn and Lord Grigoire.

Phonk bows to Trethom.

Scyte exclaims, "The company stayed here?!"

Scyte gasps!

Apophys asks, "Anyone heading up to the keep?"

Trethom says, "I should go and rest."

Trethom stops you from following him.

Cristalyn nods to Trethom.

Allye says, "Thank you, Trethom."

Kharybell nods to Trethom.

Kharybell curtsies to Trethom.

Lilustra curtsies to Trethom.

Nakori meekly asks, "Do you need an empath...?"

Eyuve says, "Rest well, warrior."

Kaeta says, "Someone's got to stay for reserves I'd imagine."

Trethom takes a few steps forward and nearly collapses.

Apophys bows to Trethom.

Kharybell says, "Thank you."

Nakori just touched Trethom, barely brushing his skin.

You nod politely to Trethom.

Cristalyn softly asks, "Who knows where they went?"

Trethom takes a few steps forward and nearly collapses.

Apophys says, "I do."

Kaelie rests her hand on Trethom's arm with a soft smile.

Allye winces.

Bryanny rubs Trethom in a friendly manner.

Willower pulls Trethom towards her!

Nakori trills softly at Trethom.

A pair of guards rush over to Trethom and take him under their arms, leading him away with significant support.
