Consequences
Log by Wish
Samiyah tells you (in common), '*quietly* You have said that you do not blame me for what happened. Is that so?'.
You tell Samiyah, 'I do not believe you did anything purposefully.'.
You tell Samiyah, '"blame" however...'.
Samiyah tells you (in common), 'Do you feel -- here she is obviously quoting someone -- that I have a debt to you for what happened?'.
You tell Samiyah, 'I do not. But I do believe you hold the key to my recovery'.
Samiyah tells you (in common), 'Yet I have offered to help, three times, and you have always refused. Why?'.
(Hours later)
You tell Samiyah, 'Do you have a moment, Sami?'.
Samiyah tells you (in common), 'Yes Sah.. er.. Lord Wish'.
You tell Samiyah, 'You asked me a question. You deserve an answer. I do not blame you, Sami, no more than a traveler walking through the woods should blame the snake that he steps on and is bitten by. It was I who ate your poem. It was I who should have known better that words hold magic in and of themselves. That does not, however, mean that I will not do what I feel is necessary to restore myself.'.
Samiyah tells you (in common), '*softly* It was You that crafted the alchemizing. But while I must live with the consequences of it... You do not.'.
You tell Samiyah, 'Me? What Alchemy are you referring to? Are you saying I wrote your poem? '.
Samiyah tells you (in common), 'The snuff.'.
You tell Samiyah, 'Ahh..the snuff...which opened your eyes to a reality that even I could not...or would not see.'.
Samiyah tells you (in common), 'The snuff changed how I Saw you. And in me Seeing you.. You saw you... some... and then I wrote of what I saw..'.
You tell Samiyah, 'We both have made choices, Sami...to say I am not living with the consequences is...is an insult!'.
Samiyah tells you (in common), '*sigh* There is no insult Sa.. Lord.'.
You tell Samiyah, 'Am I not now brought low? Withering away in this...this...pale, tree dwelling worm of a body?! No, no you do not purposefully insult. You just say...you just act...you just write! I warned you...we all warned you...and yet you continued like a loose arrow on your path.'.
Samiyah tells you (in common), 'and I live with the consequences.'.
You tell Samiyah, 'Indeed you do, Sami. After all, although I am to blame for stepping on the snake, no one can fault me for beheading it after I have been bitten.'.
Samiyah tells you (in common), '...'.
Samiyah tells you (in common), 'I am not a snake and my poems are not trash.'.
You tell Samiyah, 'Perhaps.. if I was the only traveler bitten...but no, aren't there now three other Travelers now?'.
Samiyah tells you (in common), 'I did not bite them. They Hunt me for their goddess.'.
You tell Samiyah, 'First of all, I never called your poem trash. I called the bottle your poem was in trash...which it was.'.
Samiyah tells you (in common), 'Yes. You did. "arrogant trash" and the bottle was well scrubbed! And everyone knows that is how you send a message across water!'.
You tell Samiyah, 'Well, the poem was certainly arrogant. Fine, I take back the "trash" part. It was certainly more potent a poem than I anticipated. As for the Pirate's bottle, everyone knows no scrubbing in the world will get those things clean! Except of course a desert woman whose knowledge of the ocean extends to the rare shell she finds on the beach'.
Samiyah tells you (in common), 'Well I did not know that. I hold you in esteem even if I am angry and I would not intentionally insult you by using something dirty nor would I insult my poem that way either! And No I do not know about the water much or the things on it or in it. I tried to do a thing in .. in the . the word I am not sure - context? - that spoke to you in a good way but it was the worst way, and it insulted you instead and for that I apologize.'.
You tell Samiyah, 'So, back to your original question: why have I refused your help.'.
Belgarion tells you (in common), 'is it Samiyah’s flesh you need or would her blood suffice?'.
You tell Belgarion, 'that is still tbd...working it...please sit tight.'.
You tell Belgarion, '(ooc)'.
Belgarion tells you (in common), 'kk'.
You tell Samiyah, 'And I have accepted your apology and absolved you of any guilt.'.
Samiyah tells you (in common), '*bow*'.
You tell Samiyah, 'And I apologize for calling your poem trash. It was not. Let us move past our misunderstanding and move to the central question. Which is, of course, my need for your corpse to restore myself.'.
Samiyah tells you (in common), '(a sense of the strongest possible revulsion / sacrilege / horror)'.
You tell Samiyah, 'Notwithstanding the fact that you follow Seraph, who is my sworn enemy, and whose followers I would have slain on sight, your words, your action - Those things precipitated my Change. I believe, from experience, that only a related catalyst can complete my Alchemy and provide me with the elixer I require. Clearly, that is your flesh...your blood. As for getting your help, although I was dumb enough to step on the snake, I am smart enough to know that picking it up to ask it's help to remove the poison is a bad idea.'.
Samiyah tells you (in common), 'You may not have my flesh. That is haraam... foulness and forbidden. But I would have given you my blood, and willingly. Though now I may not. So .. Teva and I will continue our dance'.
You tell Samiyah, 'Your blood...your blood might do, Samiyah. And I have another way of acquiring it.'.
You tell Belgarion, 'Is Samiyah aware of the scrolls existence?'.
Belgarion tells you (in common), 'yes'.
Belgarion tells you (in common), 'she is aware of both'.
You tell Belgarion, 'thanks'.
You tell Samiyah, 'Are there not two scrolls...written in your blood...in the realm?'.
You tell Belgarion, '(ic) Although Sami's corpse is what I truly seek, her blood might suffice.. at least for a time. I want to use some of the blood on one of the scrolls. Not the scroll itself.'.
Belgarion tells you (in common), 'ok'.
Belgarion tells you (in common), ‘I will tell DC'.
You tell Belgarion, 'she is aware already'.
You tell Belgarion, 'She has...concerns.'.
Belgarion tells you (in common), ‘I will need her help to get to you though'.
Belgarion tells you (in common), 'hehe'.
You tell Belgarion, 'Understood. I merely wish to scrape a little blood off the scroll...that is all'.
Belgarion tells you (in common), 'ok'.

Steam begins building up in the alembic, obstructing the view within.
Vicarious's eyes gaze over Wish's hands and tentacles working.
Samiyah tells you (in common), 'it is related to that. Perhaps something no one has discussed yet.'.

drip...drip...drip
drip...drip...drip
Samiyah tells you (in common), 'I await your convenience'.
Vicarious holds his breath.
Wish begins blowing on the fire beneath the alembic, causing it to burn even hotter.
You tell Samiyah, 'Wish is already preparing the concoction as we speak.'.
Samiyah tells you (in common), 'oh dear'.
The dripping increases in intensity...the fluid turns from green...to blue...
You say, 'Color...that's a good sign.'.
Belgarion ftells, 'is there any place in the realm to get vegetables?'.
You ftell, 'Hmm, I thought there was at one point, but don't know where.'.
The beaker is nearly halfway full when Wish suddenly closes the spigot and waves a hand, putting out the fire.
Vicarious lets out a little gasp for air, intensely watching.

You say, 'One moment.'.

Wish nods in recognition to you.
You tell Samiyah, 'If I could just get him to listen and stop being so stubborn! *growl*'.
Samiyah tells you (in common), '... *sigh*... I do not want more blame if something goes bad and he used the scrolls'.
You say, 'Samiyah has brought up a very good point to me just now.'.
Belgarion shows a cleric’s frustration at not being allowed to heal someone.
Wish says, 'oh?'.
Wish says, 'What is that?'.
Wish says, 'And why should I listen to her?'.
You say, 'Ghazkull holds some of Samiyah's blood within him...untainted by dark magic such as that within the scroll.'.
Belgarion says (in common), 'Hmmm'.
Belgarion says (in common), 'she has a point'.
You say, 'It might...be a better idea than risking yourself.'.
Belgarion says (in common), 'You never really tested the blood itself before you used it'.

Seraph says, ‘Have I not given you everything?’
Seraph says, ‘a home, guidance, fatherly love?’
Samiyah whispers, ‘Yes, Sahib.’
Seraph puts his helm back on.
Seraph says, ‘Then what should I do?’
Seraph leans back in his throne.
Samiyah, respectful of the fact you are addressing her more formally, moves from your side to kneel before you.
Seraph taps his fingers on the arm of his throne.
You say (in common), ‘You should punish me, Sahib. To set an example of what happens when Your will is defied.’
Seraph says, ‘That is your choice?’
Seraph ftells, Come to the Hall, Taliesin.”
Taliesin arrives from the north.
Seraph says, ‘Samiyah has defied me.. and asked to be punished.’
Samiyah bows her head. “I endure the Hunt to uphold Your name. I cannot ask You to ignore it if my other actions tarnish it.”
Seraph says, ‘What do you think I should do?’
Taliesin says (in common), ‘Me?”
Taliesin looks around the room to see if it could be anyone else.
Taliesin sits down and thinks deeply.
Taliesin says (in common), ‘how dire was her deed? Or does that matter?’
Seraph taps his fingers on his throne.
Seraph says, ‘Sending gifts to the Goddess of our enemies.’
Taliesin says, ‘Oh my.’
Taliesin says, ‘When we should be receiving gifts’
Seraph says, ‘We won’t.’
You drop a calling card. As it hits the floor, it vanishes in a flash.
A thundering voice screams, ‘HOW DARE YOU DESECRATE HOLY GROUND!’
Great fear overcomes you as your soul screams in pain.
Taliesin says, ‘My Lord, I do not claim any experience in the doling out of punishments. I am a simple storyteller.’
Seraph says, ‘Fine then.’
Samiyah winces as the curse washes over her.
Seraph says, ‘Samiyah, rise.’
Taliesin retreats to a shadowed nook.
Samiyah stands.
Samiyah swallows hard, forcing herself to stand upright and show none of the fear that fills her.
Seraph’s hand glows a bright crimson red.
Seraph then rests his hand upon his throne.
Seraph says, ‘Do not do it again.’
Seraph has removed your ability to see him when he is invis.
Taliesin stands up.
Taliesin tries to leave without being noticed.
Taliesin leaves north.
Someone says, ‘You are my daughter. I must give you a chance. Do not make a fool of me again.’
Someone kisses your forehead.
Someone utters the words, ‘candussido judifgz’
You feel better.
Samiyah bows her head in silence, feeling unworthy, and the weight of your disappointment.
Someone says, ‘Remember, dear one. I always know.’
Samiyah murmurs, ‘Yes, Sahib.’
Someone says, ‘Now I must go for a walk through the Realm of Souls.’
You nod.
You bow.
You say (in common),’Yes, Sahib.’
