*The knights remain kneeling*

But your worship-fullness, you perfectly match the description of the almighty god of the Face in the Clouds, is this a test to see how loyal we are?

All us hip cat knights crusaders take our talking cloud voices PRETTY SERIOUSLY and tend to kneel and avert our eyes and what not lest we be found guilty of heresy or blasphemy or hypocrisy or apostasy or otherwise become odious or anathema to the LORD our GOD .... as the "crusades" was a "religious war" as far as politics goes .....

" I say is it getting hot in here  OR is there a DRAGON about "??? ....

Then one of the knights launched an arrow at the face in the cloud, hitting the metal device out of the air, ending the holographic figure.

the rest of the knights just smothered themselves in barbeque sauce and got ready to be well done .... "I prefer my knights medium to rare but I can settle for blackened and broiled ".... The Dragon ....

 Not knowing what to do with it, they make room, and stuff it in with some other things that they had forgotten about.
 After the rain and a restless night they headed out again, soon they reached a cabin-like building, it looked indigenous.
 "That must be where they are" many said.
 They decided a group of them, Sir John, Sir Rey, Sir Maximus, and Sir Pyros, would go in.
 When they went inside, the door behind them was closed and locked by some mechanism.
 "Sorcery" Sir Pyros breathed.
 Just as Sir John was about to retort-.
 "Who goes there" said a raspy voice, all to familiar.
 "You" Sir John said while turning."I'll have your head"!
 "Not...so...fast" he said, he didn't sound like an old man anymore.
 He activated a mechanism that shot a wire around him, and Sir John stopped moving.
 The old man began to transform.
 The new creature had black, feathered wings, and scarce feathers everywhere else, it was humanoid, it's face was normal, besides the feathers, it had black talons on the tips of it's fingers, it had pale skin though, and milky white eyes.
 "Oh, I believe my fellow guardians will be pleased with me".
 He smiled wickedly.

The knights heard shouts coming from withing the cabin, Sir Donald ran at the door, intending to knock it down, but once he made contact, he was knocked unconscious, the door didn't even bend. The other knights began to shoot arrows at it, one of them even lit a torch to try to prove it down, but the arrows stopped in midair, frozen, held suspended over the ground, and the fire failed to light, suddenly the weather turned fowl, and out of no where, Lightning began to strike the ground around them, unfortunately, their armor was metal, so many of the knights were killed by the lightning.

(Down to 950 traveling knights)

WE have extra cans of "SPAM" mi lord chimes in one of the surviving knights .....

[4265782] Noble Leone (ASIA1) [None] :: Jan. 22, 2016, 3:09 a.m.

We shall ration it out, but we must try to find Captain Rey, it is our duty as traveling knights.

[4273568] Luxtena (US1) [None] :: Jan. 29, 2016, 8:09 p.m.

 Sir John, and the others were bound gagged, and then put on a wagon, the creature disappeared from their sight.
 All of a sudden the wagon began to travel, down a hidden path that lead down the hill, they sat for several days, with nothing to eat, except some cans of SPAM, which they always kept some spares of, finally, the wagon stopped by a cave entrance,
 "My feet are killing me from all that walking" the creature said.
 Could he have possibly been pulling the cart?
 The creature took them into the cave.
 "My fellow guardians will be pleased" he said satisfactorily.

[4273581] Noble Leone (ASIA1) [None] :: Jan. 29, 2016, 8:30 p.m.

The cave was dark, pitch black in fact, and it seemed to lead on forever, then, all of a sudden, they came out into a wide, spacious cavern, with a stone alter with a sword stuck in it in the center of the cavern, moon light shone through a whole in the ceiling directly over the alter. How long have we been walking? Thought sir Rey, it had been day when the entered the cave. 
"My fellow Guardian!" Shouted their captor, "I bring you the Traveling Knights!"
Suddenly a torch lit up on the opposite side of the room, an then one at a time the flame spread from torch to torch from both sides of the fist, until the entire cave was brightly illuminated. Smaller tunnels were on every side of the cavern, sticking out like the spokes of a wheel, the guardians emerged from the caves, slowly and regally, making there way to the center of the room, the outstretched there magnificently terrifying wings which shimmered purple, green and blue in the dancing torchlight. . . .

[4273584] Cormyria (US1) [None] :: Jan. 29, 2016, 8:33 p.m.

deep from within the darkest corners of the cave though the knights could not believe their eyes was a giant wolf chained to the wall with glowing golden chains and gagged with a golden muzzle this massive wolf lie slumbering peacefully even though no one bothered to provide it food or water and there was no evidence that it had been hunting at any point in time during it's captivity .....

 The creatures establishing themselves as the alpha's did not look anything like the great beasts described in legend, in fact what did look like the mythological great beasts were all bound on the floor, I looked at our captor with new eyes and saw something I had not seen before, fear.
 I turned to the ones establishing themselves as the leaders.
 "I have thwarted these men's plan to capture the sword, and have brought them beforee you my lords, for judgement".
 "Are these all of them" the strange creatures said. I could tell this made the captor scared, their body stiffened up.
 "No, these are their leaders."
 "How many more of them are there" they asked exasperatedly.
 "Over 900" it squeaked out.
 "Why I ought to bound you up like the rest of your traitorous lot and leave you there to rot"! he said. "GO KILL THEM TENEBRIS" they shouted.
 The creature called Tenebris jumped into the air, turned into a black dove, and flew off as fast as he could, bumping into rocks as they flew.
 "As for you..." the creature said menacingly.

Cecil awoke from his dreamless sleep with a start, something was wrong, he stood, stretching his feline form in the way that only a cat can do. His den was shady and cool, the only light shining from the moon through the many cracks in the ceiling, painting the floors like the bottom of a crystal clear lake, despite the cool air of the valley, Cecil was still warm, and he knew that something wasn't quite right, but he couldn't place his paw on it. He trotted out of his cave, and was greeted by a cold kiss of the night. He sat, and stared out across the Savannas of Berimond, something was definitely not right. . . He hoped it didn't have anything to do with Fenrir, he hadn't heard anything from him for a very long time, and without his watch, the lands of Everwinter were crumbling into chaos. . .

[4282794] Cormyria (US1) [None] :: Feb. 8, 2016, 2:06 a.m.

cold isn't chaos and the fires of ragnarok are all I leave in the wake of my passage but fear not for mortal weapons do not deter me I have just been so busy in the shadowlands dealing with the trickster and all his plots to bring about the creation of his super weapon powered by the runestones I carry in my bones .... as you may imagine I find the whole thing to be a bit ... far fetched ....

[4284965] Cormyria (US1) [None] :: Feb. 10, 2016, 3:45 a.m.

the whole Wold of martals is thrown to chaos as the armies of the kings of men march to war for the dark pride of usurper kings . It is a dark time for the failing stars of man as the great ragnarok takes it's prizes and the steeds of the Valkyries carry their worthy judged honored dead to the halls of the all father . The tempest boils and churns around me now as it gathers and breaks upon what is left of the original company of traveling knights . My intentions are known to me it is their intentions I wish to understand before I can let them near the glade of the sacred sword also called EXCALIBUR ....

[4284968] Noble Leone (ASIA1) [None] :: Feb. 10, 2016, 3:51 a.m.

The sword of Excalibur! thought Sir John, excited. Suddenly the Wolf's eyes shot open, as if in responce to Sir John's thought, and he broke through the chains that had once restrained him. The Knights stood in shock as the wolf suddenly leaped into the air, landing with a snarling howl between them and the sword.

not so fast snarls FENRIR as the illusion vanishes to reveal the barren and burning sands ... I said I need to know your intentions BEFORE I will lead you to the glade EXCALIBUR ....

With the illusion, the winged guardians disappeared as well, leaving the one called Tenebris behind.
