(The original play date of this log was 1/3/09, before Gelina came back to Larshia and Syn.)
Legacy of ChaosX: The Recal'tra Tower ruins..a place where a very decisive and great battle had been waged a long, long time ago. Back then it was a very young Gelina Grey, battling a certain Dark Lord of the Rim Kingdoms at the height of his power. Gelina and Magus would materialize from the arcing tendrils that licked out of thin air as that portal opened from Infernus. He had sent out a call earlier to both Xiria and Alexandra..two people that had direct knowledge of what was happening here this day. Alexandra's was bad enough when he awakened her's that day, and Xiria's..well she is not called The Mistress of Ruin for nothing. What would Gelina's Touched side proclaim itself? One could only fathom. At any rate the imposing frame of Magus Lee was attired in the usual hardened black leathers and loose black vest, wearing an enshrouding, nightmarishly-black cloak about him. Infinitely cold crimson hues looked about, and an eyebrow lifted..memories flooding him. "..This is definitely the place.." A look then to Gelina. "..Xiria and Alexandra should be here soon..are you prepared?"
Celtic Sanctum: <Insert> "As prepared as one can be I suppose."
XxBloodRosesxX: ::There was a flash of emerald light as the portal appeared, and out walked Empress Xiria, the Mistress of Ruin.:: "Just to let you know, we were in the middle of bath time..bath time.." ::She shot Magus a dark look, before stepping over to join them... Xiria was attired in a damp, deep purple shirt of soft cotton, simple and her favorite color, over her favorite lace up-the crotch leather pants..buttons were evil. Her long midnight black hair was slightly a mess, but she tugged her fingers through it and simply went with it. Tugging on her leather gloves, and materializing her Calamity Blade..now she was ready for anything!::
Sky Darkheart: :: Alexandra of course came to her father's call, easily able to slip away from her Beloved to come to this meeting. It was not long after the others arrived that wind and darkness swirled and there shimmered Alexandra, crimson hues flecked with sapphire around the outer iris shifted to look over the three who stood there before stepping forward as her form became solid. Waves of raven darkness flowed down her back and stopping just below her hips, shifting in the slight wind. Form was clad in simple, loose black pants under a sapphire blue top with a silver silken sash about her waist. Black boots covered those silent feet, making no sound at all as she moved over to kiss her father's cheek and then Gelina's as well. After that she stepped back a little, giving a quick smile. Yeah, even with this serious matter she was still too happy for her own good. That ring Cry had given her sparkling like crazy..engaged women were nuts. Ah well::
Celtic Sanctum: She watches as two of the most important women in her life appear before them. With a stoic nod she greets them. "Good Day Xiria, Alex. Thank you for coming." That was all she would say before looking to Magus. She was in her usual black leathers from neck to boot, Vengeance on her left hip. Though an added article of clothing was added this day. A black low cut duster that was split in two places along the bottom half for easy movement. It was her version of a cloak. It had a high back collar and a belt at her waist. Her long hair was drawn back tightly into a long braid that hung down her back, a few rebellious strands hanging at the sides of her face. Her bright emerald green eyes glowing slightly as she reaches for Magus' hand.
Legacy of ChaosX: He held out two..just two..gloved digits for her to en clasp as he reached out to her hand as well. Once taken, they would walk hand-in-hand toward just the outlying structure where once there had been an immense Tower. "..My Beloved One.." Once they were to the front of the structure he would lift her hand to place a tender kiss upon it..before withdrawing slowly from her..walking back several paces. His gaze would travel to Xiria and Alexandra, and as Alexandra gave him a kiss on his cheek he gave an almost-soft nod to her. "..My daughter...Empress Xiria.." Came that deep and resonating baritone then. "...What we are doing here seems simple enough..both of you remember..Alexandra quite vividly I would naturally assume..what it entailed for me to draw out your Touched side.." He paused a moment, and beckoned to Gelina..when his gaze met her own he mouthed the words..'I love you'. "..She has not been Touched like both of you have been...but she was Touched by the essence that lingered within her being after...a failed pregnancy.." He had hesitated to say it..he felt responsible..always would. "...Her own Dark side has yet to really manifest itself..and if it is not allowed to..it will do so of its own accord...violently I should think. I am going to bait it out of her..I would suggest assisting me.."
XxBloodRosesxX: ::Xiria gave a small nod to Gelina and a soft smile:: "Good to see you well.." ::Eyes turning back to Magus, and listening intently, as he spoke about Gelina being Touched, and that they were going to provoke this Darkness out of Gelina:: "Do you believe that is wise Magus? I saw what you all looked like after the battle with the Destroyer. Is this going to be anything as catastrophic as that?" ::She had seen the Destroyer, more than enough times and truly never wanted to see it again. Something, a bit of black crept around the edge of her eyes and receeded, something she did not notice or feel at that moment but that would be noticeable by the others. The way Xiria spoke about it now, things could get very serious in the case of Touched beings. She eyed Magus for a long time, as that darkness flashed at the edge of her eyes once more..memories..and history was always to be yielded, remembered..and hopefully learned from::
Sky Darkheart: I remember well, father...I know what has to be done.. :: She glanced towards Gelina, smiling weakly to her before turning her attention back to Magus. She had been told similar things by Trinity, so she knew that this thing needed some breathing room sometimes. Not that any of them had to like it, of course. Hues shifted over to Xiria as she spoke, listening carefully and thinking about it all herself. Woman did have some points. A dark eyebrow rose at the darkness she noticed about Xiria's eyes, head tilting slightly in question to it before she spoke and looked toward her father:: We pray it does not come do that, for that would be bad for all who stand here...all beings who have been 'Touched', and I am still learning. We shall try to bring it out...without putting it straight into killing mode, right..Father?
Celtic Sanctum: She nods to Magus then listens to Alex and Xiria. "Magus says he can control this in some way. But if it comes down to me getting so out of control that your mortal lives are in danger, do what is necessary. There will be no repercussions upon you for it. I know I am immortal, but there are ways to bind even immortals. I didn't ask for this as none of you did either. I don't want it and if I could go back in time and change it I would. I'm sorry if this puts any of you at any inconvenience. It was not my intention. But thank you for helping me." Then she looks at Magus again. "There is one thing you should know, though. I have a separate darkside. One that I have had since I arrived at GoldenMyst so many years ago. Bestowed upon me by my first husband. It is one that I do have control over. But I don't know what it will do once mixed with this." Pauses, looking at all three of them. "That is why I am warning you all now to do what you need to do. Think of the darkest, evil vampire you can. Now, think of what you all have been touched with. I am sure you all get my point."
Legacy of ChaosX: "..I will ensure to the best of my abilities that we will not prod Gelina's Touched side to any further degree than necessary.." He had begun already to build up his own power, as he gave a distinct nod to all three of them for their input, especially Gelina..he had needed to know that part. Now, it would be even simpler..at least for him. "..Thank you my Beloved One..now let us begin..." He parted his cloak suddenly to allow for the glint of that arcane, metallic scabbard at his side to be seen that housed his Blade of Black. He himself, began tapping into that part of him that was The Dark Lord of the Rim Kingdoms..something Gelina did not like in the least..and he was doing it on purpose. Gelina, at this point, would feel something deep..deep within the very core of her soul. It was being brought into flame within her very being..that part of her that Magus recognized as the essence of himself...that blood..the blood of every Lee in his family..dwelling within her..and growing..expanding rapidly. He saw it for what it was, and what it
is, and knew all this time..after all these years..Gelina was as much a Lee as any in his family..just did not have the crimson eyes or the black hair. He started advancing toward Gelina now..while he prodded that essence of herself while he spoke to provoke it as well. "..I lied Gelina...you are evil.." Lying and telling her she was evil..definitely a fast way to bring that Touched side of her out. It pained him to say any of this, but he had to..for her sake and for the sake of everyone. "..Admit it to yourself...you have become so much like me..that you have become me..you wish to do evil...you ache for it...and every time you decided against your better nature you became weaker...a shadow of what you once were.." He was loathing himself at this point..but then he gave a sharp look to Xiria and Alexandra..they had to be ready.
XxBloodRosesxX: ::Xiria stood off to the side, watching Magus, and listening, as he began to taunt her inner darkness. A slow shake of her head was given, because deep down, she knew that like Gelina, he knew far too much about her, and to bait her would be far too easy. Did Gelina have the thick skin to ignore it, would his baiting work? She gave a light laugh, he would probably have to do better than that. Xiria blinked, emerald eyes growing serious now, as she raised her magic energies within, a loud clap of thunder rolling overhead, violet lightning streaking the sky, again a repercussion from raising her energies. And thus she would simply wait gazing between them and then to Alex with a small nod, as if to say now was the time::
Sky Darkheart: We would all want the same thing, Gelina. We will do what we can to help you, and keep things from going toward the worse side for a second time. Things will be better.. :: At least that was what Alex hoped. She fingered her engagement ring for a moment as she continued to listen to Gelina and then Magus when he said it was time to begin. She silently summoned up her magic and power, holding it steady as her father began to taunt her close friend. She couldn't believe half the things she heard from out of her father's mouth, but knew they had to be said. She managed to catch the nod from Xiria, returning it before looking toward Gelina:: You are the same as us..you know. You do not like when others make fun of, or threaten Father...but yet you do it all the time. You're no better then any of us that have done it, you're just as bad as us if not worse. You should take a look at yourself, Gelina..before you start telling us what to do...:: Well, that hurt like hell and she didn't like it one bit. Pushing her lips into a thin line she went silent...not about to say another word. Let her father do the rest now::
Celtic Sanctum: When she heard the words coming out of his mouth, she blinks. Xiria was right, he would have to do better than that. While Gelina could feel something building down deep, it wasn't enough to bring it out. Her green eyes flashed at and she grins. "Problem with that, Magus, is I know YOU are the one lying. Try again." Then glowing eyes shot to Alex as she heard what came out of her mouth and it sparked something. Her eyes narrow at Alex. They were getting close but no one had quite hit it on the head yet. She let out a low growl at the approaching Magus, but nothing more. Yet.
Legacy of ChaosX: He took a deep breath..this was going to hurt him far more than it would hurt Gelina he knew. "...You want to know why I came back for you? To use you...and then I will let my thirst for war override how I feel for you..and I will leave you once more...alone.." Then he started advancing further towards Gelina and those cold crimson hues darkened..taking on an aspect of that Fury he kept usually under tight control. "..Look at you...a worthless woman..someone to be pitied...how could someone like me ever love you? You lost my child you pitiful woman...you lost my child because you were weak..and I loathe such weakness in my women..perhaps I will take up with another..stronger..woman than you.." He truly hoped that would do it..because he could not stand to do any more than that. Inwardly, he wanted to bury himself in a hole somewhere and be left for dead..that is how much he despised what he was saying..but he was nothing if not relentless. He concentrated now..heavier than before..spiking that essence of himself within her to bring it out..to allow for it to awaken fully. With his last words, he hoped it would work. "..You..are..weak!"
Sky Darkheart: :: She smirked slightly, crossing her arms over her chest. They were getting closer now, she could tell:: Father is right..you don't deserve him. You think you are all high and mighty but you are nothing more then dirt beneath his feet. You cannot even control yourself and your supposed to be strong!:: Yep, she was done now. No more of this, otherwise she'd end up getting pissed at herself and who knew what problems that would bring up if she wanted to rip herself apart::
Celtic Sanctum: Ohhhh, that did it. Blaming her for loosing their child was the hot button. A more fierce growl was emitted as she backed up onto what was left of the dais where The Dark Lord once sat on his throne here. Suddenly debris around them began to explode and disintegrate, shooting pieces of rock and earth through the air. Balls of flame coming out of nowhere, whizzing past their heads and bombing at their feet. Her eyes went from that bright green to solid black. Her hair didn't turn black like all the others in the family, it turned into liquid flame with streaks of yellow and orange within the red. Her face became contorted and veined, but in a way still held that stunning beauty. Her aura burst into flames outling her frame as she levitated a few feet above the dais glaring at each one of them. When she finally spoke among the violent explosions, thunderous red skies and unrelenting lightning, her voice was deep and gravely. Even more so than the last time Magus heard it. "You blame me for loosing one of YOUR evil spawn?" She let out an evil laugh. "Ironically, it was Death itself that took that child. And I didn't want it anyway!" Then her blackened gaze moves to Alex. "And you. You pathetic little being. Wanting so much to be a real Lee that you latched onto The Dark Lord's son and moved into his father's good graces to get what you wanted. What a little whore you really are." Oh yes. They wanted it, they got it. "I bested you three times, Magus Lee, and I will do it again and again until you learn that I am the one that rules the Rim Kingdoms. Not you!" And with that, she shoots a large fireball that lands right between Magus and Alex, exploding, throwing them back quite a few feet. "You made a mistake awakening me. Not even the Dark Lord can control me!!" An echoing evil laugh shook the tower in which they stood. "No one controls The Dark Phoenix of the Rim Kingdoms! NO ONE! MUWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Legacy of ChaosX: Well...so 'this' was who and what dwelt within Gelina. The Dark Phoenix of The Rim Kingdoms...at least now they had a name to go with it. A glance was given toward Alex then. "..Restrain yourself! Do not give into temptation...I can feel your Arcane Mistress growing...restrain her!" He stepped forward toward the being that was now The Dark Phoenix of the Rim Kingdoms..and a brow lifted. Just its presence sparked what was The Dark Lord within him..but he restrained it. He dropped all pretense of his fury. "..You want to know something? I love you..yes..I do...so go ahead and destroy me if you like..but I am going to ask you to marry me..very soon.." He simply stretched out his arms..while her flames licked at his cloak. He simply closes his eyes..and concentrates best as he can...to bring down the menace that is within her to a subdued level at least within her. It would be tough, but he had a hold in there. "...Did you hear that..Gelina Grey..I love you..as does Alexandra..Xiria..and so many others.."
Sky Darkheart: :: Oh there went keeping calm. A low growl escaped her lips at Gelina's words, teeth bared as her hands clenched a little. Tears burned and sparkled in her eyes for a moment before they faded away as that anger began to grow. Already those crimson hues began to flicker black. She was barely able to hear her fathers words above the roar that was that Darkness within her, but she could and she tired:: Kind of...hard...at the moment...father. She's kind of...pissed...here...:: It took long moments to get that Arcane Mistress of her's back down where she belonged, and locked down tight. Then all that was left in that anger was the sadness and hurt. She dropped her knees, those tears flowing forth now. Gelina's words her really hurt, and hit a precious cord. And Alex couldn't made those feelings stop now::
Celtic Sanctum: The Dark Phoenix looks at Magus, growling. But then, something happened. His words registered with Gelina inside. The Dark Phoenix let out a piercing scream before falling from its levitation back down to the dais. The thunder and lightning stopped, the skies went back to a normal cloudy. The flames that surrounded her faded and all went completely still and quiet within the tower. All that was left was Gelina laying on the dais unconscious but not before the Phoenix's last words echoed throughout. "You can't keep me locked up, Dark Lord! I will have my day and when I do, you will be destroyed!" It was over. For now.
Legacy of ChaosX: The Recal'tra Tower ruins..a place where a very decisive and great battle had been waged a long, long time ago. Back then it was a very young Gelina Grey, battling a certain Dark Lord of the Rim Kingdoms at the height of his power. Gelina and Magus would materialize from the arcing tendrils that licked out of thin air as that portal opened from Infernus. He had sent out a call earlier to both Xiria and Alexandra..two people that had direct knowledge of what was happening here this day. Alexandra's was bad enough when he awakened her's that day, and Xiria's..well she is not called The Mistress of Ruin for nothing. What would Gelina's Touched side proclaim itself?

"..Xiria and Alexandra should be here soon..are you prepared?"

XxBloodRosesxX: ::There was a flash of emerald light as the portal appeared, and out walked Empress Xiria, the Mistress of Ruin.:: "Just to let you know, we were in the middle of bath time..bath time.." ::She shot Magus a dark look, before stepping over to join them... Xiria was attired in a damp, deep purple shirt of soft cotton, simple and her favorite color, over her favorite lace up-the crotch leather pants..buttons were evil. Her long midnight black hair was slightly a mess, but she tugged her fingers through it and simply went with it. Tugging on her leather gloves, and materializing her Calamity Blade..now she was ready for anything!::

Wanting so much to be a real Lee that you latched onto The Dark Lord's son and moved into his father's good graces to get what you wanted. What a little whore you really are." Oh yes. They wanted it, they got it. "I bested you three times, Magus Lee, and I will do it again and again until you learn that I am the one that rules the Rim Kingdoms. Not you!" And with that, she shoots a large fireball that lands right between Magus and Alex, exploding, throwing them back quite a few feet. "You made a mistake awakening me. Not even the Dark Lord can control me!!" An echoing evil laugh shook the tower in which they stood. "No one controls The Dark Phoenix of the Rim Kingdoms! NO ONE! MUWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Legacy of ChaosX: Well...so 'this' was who and what dwelt within Gelina. The Dark Phoenix of The Rim Kingdoms...at least now they had a name to go with it. A glance was given toward Alex then. "..Restrain yourself! Do not give into temptation...I can feel your Arcane Mistress growing...restrain her!" He stepped forward toward the being that was now The Dark Phoenix of the Rim Kingdoms..and a brow lifted. Just its presence sparked what was The Dark Lord within him..but he restrained it. He dropped all pretense of his fury. "..You want to know something? I love you..yes..I do...so go ahead and destroy me if you like..but I am going to ask you to marry me..very soon.." He simply stretched out his arms..while her flames licked at his cloak. He simply closes his eyes..and concentrates best as he can...to bring down the menace that is within her to a subdued level at least within her. It would be tough, but he had a hold in there. "...Did you hear that..Gelina Grey..I love you..as does Alexandra..Xiria..and so many others.."
Sky Darkheart: :: Oh there went keeping calm. A low growl escaped her lips at Gelina's words, teeth bared as her hands clenched a little. Tears burned and sparkled in her eyes for a moment before they faded away as that anger began to grow. Already those crimson hues began to flicker black. She was barely able to hear her fathers words above the roar that was that Darkness within her, but she could and she tired:: Kind of...hard...at the moment...father. She's kind of...pissed...here...:: It took long moments to get that Arcane Mistress of her's back down where she belonged, and locked down tight. Then all that was left in that anger was the sadness and hurt. She dropped her knees, those tears flowing forth now. Gelina's words her really hurt, and hit a precious cord. And Alex couldn't made those feelings stop now::
Celtic Sanctum: The Dark Phoenix looks at Magus, growling. But then, something happened. His words registered with Gelina inside. The Dark Phoenix let out a piercing scream before falling from its levitation back down to the dais. The thunder and lightning stopped, the skies went back to a normal cloudy. The flames that surrounded her faded and all went completely still and quiet within the tower. All that was left was Gelina laying on the dais unconscious but not before the Phoenix's last words echoed throughout. "You can't keep me locked up, Dark Lord! I will have my day and when I do, you will be destroyed!" It was over. For now.
