The Canadian Wilderness
::Their was a shimmer as Walks-The-Steel-Web, a rank 3 Glass Walker Philadox emerged from the umbra in Galabro. He sniffed the air and focused his mystical energy as he called to the beasts throug htheir own tounge (Beast Speach)::
"My kin, consins, and riends i seek Brother Bear, can any direct me to the Gurahl of the land?"
Having just gathered fresh healing herbs, Josiah Medicine-Claw of the Gurahl nation, rank 4, from the Mountain Guardians tribe, prepares to break camp, when the urgent summons arrives. Wasting no time, Josiah Medicine-Claw ventures quickly to the aid of his Garou brother.
Re: The Summons
::The Welldressed Glasswalker blinks as a man aproches him he cautiously sniffs the air (scent of True Form) and then smiles::
"Ah i was afraid your people lost Brother Bear i'm afraid that some allies of our for the comming Apoclypse have becoem victims of a insane Talon, a small group of men and women have beenturned into mundane wolf-kin. I am hoping you might know a way to return their true form?"
Brothers Reunite
"It's good to see you. How I wish it could be under more pleasant circumstances. But these are trying times and there is much to be done in order to right the wrongs done to all of Gaia's children. Josiah Medicine-Claw is at your service. Now, tell me more of the situation, my Glass Walker brother."
Re: Brothers Reunite
::Walks hangs his head in shame pausing for a solom moment::
"Some time ago a Red Talon Elder Theuge by the name Culls-The-Herd gathered together a pack of 7 of us, Culls-The-Herd Elder Lupus Red Talon Theuge, Me, Walks-The-Steel-Web Homid Philidox Glasswalker Adren, Strength-Of-Fenris a Get of Fenris, Might-Of-Molorjern, Another Get, Wind-Wisper a Wendigo, Shadow-Of-The-Wyld, a Shadow Lord, And Falcon's Fang our Fang Leader before he Went to Gaia. Filled with Ritious Rage we Atacked The Difenbakers Casino here in Vancoover but were held back by a powerful force of Technocrats, Mages who like us Walkers are tech heads. Long story short by the end of events Culls bound a Fenris spirit into a unclead fetish tatoo on one ofthe mages turning him into a walking Diyonisis's Curse his very fields and familes, allies, anyone near him ran the risk of becoming mundane wolves. And Culls personally trurned thecursed mage boy's mate into a wolf and then proceeded to rape her convincing me the pup she would bear with help with our population problems. Like a fool i belive his charismatic lines and soiled my gifts by using them to keep the wolf-girl docile.
A masslive battle cut down our pack and a ethic schism formed, Of the 7 only the 2 get, Culls and i suvive. Culls is outthere wriling the garou nation to his Etremem banner, he wishes to turn all of humanity to wolves, and hes gaining support, i'm opposing by geting garou friendly to humanity and the urban environment to Join with the Glass walkers who have formed a bargin with the Tech mages.
Our raid ontheir base caused them to look in on themselves and they discovered the Hellhole and pentex lacies intheir organization. They performed a purge but lost a 1/5 of their menbership. So i struck up a bargin they will aid inthe protection of our urban caerns if we are willing to share with them, additionally they may call on us for aid as we may call on them.
But that is not whati need you for, ithe the Wolf-girl and cursed-boy, as i understand it they have hada Stay in Erubus and bee cured onf their conditions recently but their victim remain. nearly 50 men and women, some mages most just sympathics humans turned into wolf-kin...
I feel it is my duty by Honor to find a way to restore them to their true forms...
A Time To Heal
"The situation is dire to say the least. A rogue Talon extremist, fallen comrads, and wide spread taint among the others. There is much to be done. Perhaps it is not too late to give succour to the misfortunate. I shall follow you at once, giving whatever assistance I can."
Re: A Time To Heal
::Walks was stunned,,,the Gural really were a honorable race, pity the garou had done so much to them, hunted them.::
"My mission will take me int othe hearts of garou lands to unite the tribes against Culls insanity, are you willing to go alone save for me into the heart of the people who hunted you in the War of Rage?"
In Gaia's Name
"It is true that many suffered during the War of Rage--as did humanity during The Impergium. And today many on all sides still harbor animosities, but we are all of Gaia. This is the binding tie which holds us together. And it is in Gaia's name that we shall go forth."
Re: In Gaia's Name
::Walks alswers his cell phone::
"Uh huh, i see......remarkable"
::hangin up the phone he smiles wide at the Gruahl::
"Down in Washington DC the alliance first joint venture has begun, our Technocratic Allies, Some Walkers and soem Gnawers are cooperating to open, no create a new Caern, the wyrm seige just began and my Alpha wanted to update me. Maybe, just maybe we can save Gaia after all....now LEts see if we can help our allies any thoughts on how we can turn humans who were transform by the power of a Elder back to normal?"
In Gaia's Name Cont.
Josiah Medicine-Claw stroked his chin thoughtfully and considered the young Garou's words. A trace of a smile fell across Josiah's face as he looked at the Glass Walker,
whose expensive urbanite attire seemed in stark contrast to such a rugged wilderness setting. "Tell me, are there any theurges among those who stand with us? If so, perhaps my gifts, coupled with their gifts, can bring about a cure that the afflicted so desperately need."
Re: In Gaia's Name Cont.
"Well i hope so even without this new Caern we have the entire Glass Walker Tribe in the alliance i would hope were not so out of touch to not have one Theuge and soon we'll hopefully have the Bone Gnawers to aid us" Walks chuckled for a instant before coming solomn again "But honestly i dont know the numbers my quest takes me to the far courers of the umbra and the Gaia Realm so i cant keep tabs on my tribes numbers...I just hope its posible i mean the spirits give us much power but it was fenris who did this and i cant think of any human spirits, noh sure their ape spirits but just want kind of spirits do you talk to to deal with wolf to human problems? Gaia spirits?"
"A Rite of Cleansing should help. There are specialty charms like Cleanse the Blight and, finally, there is Exorcism. If the land itself is tainted, there are rites that can be performed in order to purge the taint. Unfortunately my knowledge of Banes is rather limited. Outside of Scrags, Kalus, and Psychomachiae, I am sorely
lacking in that department." Josiah sniffed the air and sighed heavily.
Re: Searching For A Cure
"You have a point the..."
::Walks answered his ringing phone and his jaw just droped::
"I don't belive it, those mages did it, they opend a Caern, and no just Any Caern a rank 4(dont know the non numerical caern titles) Caern, even scared of the BSD invaders. This alliance is going better then i could have hoped, image a Rank 4 Caern, Gaia must be pleased!"
::Walks regain his composure::
"Right, right back to work, uh where do we start our quest to cure the wolfed men and women?"
A Course Of Action
"If it is possible, I would like to view the situation first hand in order to gain a better perspective. Perhaps during our journey we shall gain more insight--with the help of Gaia of course." Josiah gave the young Glass Walker's shoulder a reassuring squeeze. "Besides, I think better on the move." Josiah smiled.
Re: A Course of Action Cont.
ooc for the sake of story i'm moving this along to the destination, no need to rp the transit
::The duo headed to the Closed down casino, several humans who if one could tell were touched by magic, while a good majority were just human sympathizers watched the duo, Throug ha series of hall they were lead until they came to a strange looking portal device stepping in they were wisked across the umbra to what looked to be a massive wild life preserve, a hand full of men in envronmental containment suits tended to the 50 odd wolves who romed the land::
Reflections on the "Otherplace"
The Umbra, or the otherplace as the Gurahl refer to it , is a place of infinite lore and speculation. Gurahl traverse it only for a specific purpose, rarely do they make pleasure jaunts or explorations. Only to locate someone or something do they cross over. Josiah knew of only one other reason for such a venture. Once, long ago, Josiah heard the story of Orphea Lightwalker, a brave Gurahl woman who entered the Dark Umbra, seeking Mangi--The Death Bear. She fought Mangi for the life of a young werebear whose time to die was not yet at hand. For three days and three nights Orphea battled the Death Bear. Finally, Mangi released the cub to Orphea's charge, where she continued her role as the cub's Buri-Jann. Her story is legendary among the Gurahl and Josiah Medicine-Claw never forgot it.
Re: Reflections on the "Otherplace"
walks: Our allies in the "Technocracy" as they call it are rather fond of Umbras realms to conduct their more intesive projects, this is where they are working withthe wolf transformees...any thoughts on how to proceed?
Process of Elimination
"I would suggest that we examine one of the wolves. Perhaps talk to some of the tech. advisers. We must use sound judgement, my friend."
Re: Process of Elimination
::Walks nods and leads the gural over to the techs gathered aroune one ofthe wolves::
"What can you tell us of the afflicted"
tech: Well its the damdest thing, all our scans show their wolves through and through and they stoped acting human a few months ago but give them some of our technology and they seem to know how to instinctivly use it. They still act like wolves but they seem to recall how to use Advanced Science to some degree...
