Jared was slumped in the plush chair thinking, when Zyle interjected into his thoughts asking about enchantments for his sword. He thought for a moment and gave the best answer he could, "Whatever hurts werewolves the most." Jared glanced up looking at the podium that Zyle seemed to be focused on. Jared approached a second podium nearby, placing his hand on it. He expected some kind of magical infusion to happen. Instead he only heard the wind blowing through the still open door. Jared realized that he was cold, and went to the door to close it. He began to shut the door, but it only would close up to a few inches. Jared left, have given up on the door, and headed towards the glowing portal. He stepped onto the glowing platform, and felt his skin tingle. Then it began to burn, and then a frosty sensation overcame him. His vision blurred and a streaks of color flooded his eyes. He appeared moments later on the upper floors of Frostcrag Spire dizzy and off-balance. As his vision returned to normal he began observing the area for possible items of value. Where to start, oh where to start?

Aven replied to Lucius. "The Great House Telvanni and the Morrowind branch of the Mages Guild are on pretty bad terms, last time I heard, but it isn't as bad in Cyrodiil. I don't think that the local Mages Guild trusts me, and I certainly don't approve of their monopoly on spell research and enchanting, but it's still a step up from Morrowind.."

Aven then turned towards Zyle, "If you're still looking for revenge on Lycan, I'd recommend a fire enchantment. I don't know what werewolves are weak against aside from silver, but an enchanted weapon should work better than an unenchanted one. But even so, you'll need a filled soul gem to enchant it."

"well i suppose thats becasue theres very few telvanni here in Cyrodiil..i think the only other one is frathen drothan who is attemptig to dig up Mehrunes Razor somewhere in the valus mountain..and he has a writ on his head...i was in morrowind when the writ was issued...im a friend of the grandmaster, Eno Hlaalu, perhaps we should check that out too, mehrunes razor is something that could help us greatly..the ability of killing an enemy with a single slash..they say that mehrunes dagon claims souls through it...that could be a great addition to our arsenal...well its something to think about...and i agree a fire enchantment...would be best becasue of a vampires natural weakness...also my shortsword is enchanted with powerful frost-shock abilities..noit fire..but my elven dagger has an average fire enchantment but a wicked edge..and my other dagger in unenchanted...as far as i know...well what im saying is that with fire,frost,and shock would be damn near unbeatable against any elemental foe..."Said Lucius.

Jared quickly began to search through the containers, the most obvious place. More often than not those were the places that held the valuables. He only found some robes, nowhere near as comfortable as his current. They were itchy and rough. He threw them back in the drawers, delving deeper into the dresser. He found nothing. Jared was disappointed of his emptyhandedness (OOC: is that a word?), but didn't stop looking. He rummaged through the other few crates and chests scattered around the rooms. Finally Jared gave up, looking at the garden. Half was green and light like it was summer and the other half was hotter than any summer and red and fiery as hell. Jared stayed away from it, fearing what he didn't know. He gave up going through another uncomfortable teleportation back to the ground floor. Than he looked for the only other portal and stepped into it. He arrived shaken and saw the rest of the group heading away.

OOC: yeah it is a word.

IC: Zyle took the advice and enchanted his scimitar with fire. He then walked towards an unknown relic; it was gold and had a blue glow to it "What is this thing?" Zyle asked while picking it up then holding it in the air, examining it. Zyle then looked towards the others to see if they knew what it was, but then he turned back to and then looked towards the library. "Maybe the library will tell me." he said out loud.

"I have no idea what that that is, but be careful with it," Aven replied to Zyle

The spellsword looked at Lucius. "So it is true. had heard rumors of Drothan hiring Dunmer mercenaries in Cyrodiil. But I only heard those rumors about Drothan from other Telvanni, before I left Morrowind. When I got to Cyrodiil, I tried to find out where he was, but I couldn't locate him. But I don't know about trying to get Mehrunes Razor, for a daedric artifact, it's extremely dangerous."

"he's started his "digging" in a fort in the valus mountains...theres supposedly an alyeid ruin down there...and i beleive more than one assassin has been sent down there and hasnt returned...so he must be heavily gaurded...most likely as deep as the ruin is..and a skilled sorcerer most likely....his plans with the razor are a bit ineresting..he plans to take over the empire with it...we could go down find out his progress on locating the razor...kill him, take the razor..and we have quite the weapon...of course gettin past an army in an extremely deep mine of sorts isnt easy...but it is possible.."Said Lucius"Zyle...it could be helpful to you...itll make your revenge alot easier...but..of course there is the issue of getting to the fort..and finding the right one...sundercliff watch..just becasue we know the name doesnt mean we know the location...and were in the jerralls..and our target is in the valus..well it may be worth it..."Said Lucius

Jared was timidly watching from the portal. His vision was still blurred a bit, but he could identify most of them by their features. The faces were lost to him, but finally his vision returned. He approached the group wondering what was down here. He looked at the chests but they were mostly open except a small black chest. It's corners were covered in curving, black, twisted metal. It seemed all but untouched. The black finish was glossy and shined in the torchlight of the cavern. A cavern? How peculiar. This must go on through the mountain. Which most likely means that there will be treasures for me to find along the way. Jared thought. He headed towards the black box, touching the cold metal handle. He pulled on the box lid, but it refused to budge. He ignored the failed attempt and used his shortsword for leverage and stamped down on it with all his might. With a loud crack, the lid snapped open, flew all the way back, hit the ice, and bounced back hitting Jared's foot. Yelping in pain, Jared clutched his foot while hopping haphazardly around a few scattered chests. As the pain receded, he retrieved his shortsword and peered inside the box.

There was nothing but a few amulets and a ring. All that pain and work just for some trinkets? What a waste. Jared thought disheartened. He scooped up all the jewelry to inspect it. Two were especially interesting. They were as black as the box, but they were shiny as well. One was the only ring and it pulsated in his hands. They were both colder to the touch than the rest of the jewelry. The other was a chain necklace with one large oval chain with a thin, grey bar intersecting the top and bottom of the large link. Jared stuffed all the other loot in his pockets and put on the black jewelry. They were cold against his skin, but Jared ignored the sensation for the moment.

OOC:guys? if ur out there im just informing you that i might be gone for a couple more weeks due to rl probs....and uh where is everyone....

OOC: I have been here. Lycan is probably with family for winter break (I'm assuming) and he said he had finals before the break started.

OOC: Where were we cause like Contureh said i was out with the family and next week is my Finals. So give me a heads up on where we are at.

OOC: Basically we are in that vault place. I'm not sure if we are just gonna make it like the in-game vault (just a big cavern) or if we are going to make it a large cave system and venture into it. Zyle found a blue yellow artifact (not sure what it is) and I found some black jewellry that has almost life-like qualities. We are kind of just walking around in there look at stuff.

OOC: Oh Ok, so I start off were my character left off.

IC: Zyle looked closely to the encryption on the artifact, but couldn't recognize the language or code. "Well, No ones going to miss this, so I might as well take it for more research" He silently said to himself. Zyle then walked towards a few display cases they were empty and had items. He then looked towards some old ingredients and pastel mortar that was left touched years ago from the signs of dust and decay. "Hmmm...This is defiantly a Mages tower." He also said to himself.

OOC: Great, we're back on track.

"I have to admit, Zyle, I've seen a lot of Mages Towers, but nothing like this place. If I didn't know better, I'd think that this tower was the work of Sotha Sil himself," replied Aven. "I just hope the previous owner doesn't return while we're here, whoever they are." The spellsword took a moment to better dust off the alchemy table. He noticed a strange feeling come over him, as if his skills in making potions were somehow improved. He had felt it before, but hadn't realized it until now. This tower was full of surprises, he had to admit.

"How much time do you think we have before your Lycanthropy takes effect? I know that Morrowind vampire strains take three days to take effect, but I don't know much about Lycanthropy."

Zyle looked towards Aven "Well, we will soon find out once the time comes and it's almost noon, so I advise us to find a bed to sleep and find this vault for me." Zyle said while looking into the Dunmers eyes. Zyle then walked past Aven too examine the artifact he had found more.

Jared left the vault after finding nothing else of interest in the chests. He returned through the portal, getting woozy once more. I don't think I'll ever get used to those portals. And there aren't any old fashioned stairs in this place! Jared thought, slightly annoyed. He walked up to the plush chair and flopped into it once more. Once his woozy state had left him, quicker than before, he got up and looked through the shelves of books for some kind of book that looked worth a large sum. He found one, with a gilded cover and hundreds of pages thick. Pulling it from the shelf he struggled to hold the heavy book and fell into the chair. He sank deep into the chair before shifting his weight to a more comfortable position. Opening the book he read the title, Adventures in the Magickal World, by the Experts of the Magickal and Arcanum Arts. It was published by the Archmage of the Arcane University.

Opening to the first page he read a quick introduction, or actually the first sentence:
Magic, a wonderful and horrible practice.
After reading the first sentence he was overcome with a great tiredness. Leaning his face into the book, he fell fast asleep using a 900 page book as his pillow.

OOC: hey guys im just informing you that i still want to be apart of the rp but this rl stuff is taking up damn near all my time but ill be more active in the forums in a couple of weeks....just kinda play along act like im still there and..hopefully ill be back in no time...sry for absencses...but ill be back soon...id post something but i wont be around to see the replys for a while like i said a couple of weeks...so ill be back later i guess....oh yea andi wont be on xbox live either..just alittle sie note...
OOC: you know what why not..

IC:"well my friends what have you found in this...uh...goldmine..(thats me hoping youll bring me up to speed but i might not be online(sorry again) very often)..i really hope they have more than one bed..im tired of sleeping on the ground and a stone ground at that..."Said Lucius sharpening his lucky dagger with a whet stone he had picked up from the lower vault."the way i see it if the previous owner does come back..he'll likely be armed..with something we can either use or sell..so id say its win-win?....whats that you got there Zyle?"Said Lucius walking around the vault.

OOC:just letting u guuys (if ur still out there that i might be more active now..so...yeah..hope u come back

...so this is the end of this fanfic....damn...well i guess it was fun while it lasted...ill still be checking in on it in case u guys come back...oh well...

OOC: Well Lets see if we can get more ppl back to this FanFic, and lets see what kind of faith we have for our characters....Shall we.?

OOC: I don't like having to OOC this much, but I'd like you guys to know I'm still here.

OOC: OK man we going to have to get this fan fiction back to the top.

OOC: Yeah, I'm alive aswell. RP'ing just got boring for me eventually. I'll try and check back here, but hopefully it will get started back up again.

OOC: Well, we'd better get it back on track.

Aven spoke, "Yes, the lack of sleeping arrangements is quite worrisome. I suppose we could use the balcony teleporter to head back to Bruma and see if there's any place to sleep there, but it's a bit of a walk back here. But whatever our choice, we'll probably need to be away when Zyle's lycanthropy takes effect, I don't want to be in a tower with a werewolf."

The dunmer wasn't showing it, but he was worried for Zyle. Aven had never been a werewolf, although he had narrowly avoided it, but he saw what those monsters were capable of, it was nearly impossible to believe that they had ever been men or mer.

OOC: Years of this dead Fanfic but im Officaly back. I thought this fanfic story was deleted but i guess not.
