The Trial of the Champion

Re: The Trial of the Champion

(Hah, dont mind losing when this is the result.)

Linday and Alera would engage each other and begin their duel. Both of them knew that going in Lindsay was the superior fighter. There was one thing working in the favor of Alera that Lindsay did not have however, and it was knowledge that Alera would use to her advantage. Alera knew how Lindsay fought while Lindsay knew nothing of Alera. Different timelines or not, knowing your opponent and how they will act gives a distinct advantage.

Alera would seize the opportunity afforded her and score a hit on Lindsay. It was not a blow that was meant to do physical damage, but one that liberated Lindsay's breasts from her clothing. Reeling from the speed at which Alera was moving it was with another flash that she disarmed the pair as their weapons went skidding across the floor. Alera culminating her advantage into a position of dominance as she toppled Lindsay to the floor.

Alera it would seem knew Lindsay's body rather well, and knew exactly what would set her body on fire. Teasing her nipples, it was clear that Alera knew Linday's breasts were her weak point. As Alera's hands would work over Lindsay's breasts, Alera would move in such a way that her own top had undone itself. Going back on the offensive, Alera was using her own breasts to pin down Lindsay's and the war of breasts was on with Alera taking the initiative. The sensation was driving Lindsay wild though she was still able to keep her head about her.

(Use naughty because blargh to combat now I say!)

Alera never broke eye contact with Lindsay as the two would seemingly start a battle more for dominance over the other. Alera was currently pinning Lindsay on the ground and using her own breasts to tease the nipples of Lindsay's breasts. Both Lindsay and Alera were starting to let out moans of pleasure. Alera so focused on pleasing Lindsay that she was neglecting her own body, and this was where Lindsay could counterattack and gain the advantage. All she needed to do was to get Alera off balance and then Lindsay would be in control of her.

Re: The Trial of the Champion

--Naughty TIME! roll 11+10=21 vs 20 pass--

Alera kept attempting to press Linsay down and rub their bodies together it was not long before Linsay would easily moan and turn the tables on her foe. She pressed down rubbing their breasts together as Linsay shifted her weight and pushed Alera onto her back. Their eyes never losing their connection a deep blush falling across her face as she melted into Lindsay's killed hands. Their breasts rubbing together as the skirt and breast cups were tossed aside and Alera was laid low as Linsay kept rubbing her all over the wetness between her legs readily apparent. Alera finally broke eye contact as she reached her orgasm, defeated and submissive to her lover.

Alera clung to Linsay for a few moments while they continued their grinding session, wanting another orgasm. But mostly wanting to please her new lover. She would look to her with weak eyes wanting to see her dominant lover moaning in pleasure as they rubbed their bodies together and their fingers explored each others bodies. All she wanted in the world from her eyes was for her lover to cum.

Re: The Trial of the Champion

Alera was far more interested in pleasing Lindsay than dominating her, as this battle would quickly devolve into Lindsay and Alera rubbing their bodies together. Something about this felt off, but Lindsay for the time being was not exactly passing up the opportunity to get herself pleasured by the hands of another. Having enough of being the submissive one, Lindsay would sense Alera starting to waver in her resolve.

Lindsay would gain the upper hand as she bucked Alera off of her. Quickly establishing a more dominant position Lindsay would continue rubbing their bodies together. It became clear that Alera was almost no match for Lindsay as she seemed to only want to look into Lindsay's eyes the whole time. The first time the two ever broke eye contact with each other was when Alera arched backward uncontrollably as the first orgasm washed over her body.

(Use explore to see if there is something with Alera, and specifically her eyes)

Having subdued Alera, Lindsay felt something was not right with this. Why was Alera always looking at Lindsay's eyes? Not one to shy away from the touch of another woman however, Lindsay would keep on going. Though she could not shake the feeling that something felt wrong with all of this. Lindsay would focus in on Alera's eyes now. If something was not right, she would figure it out in short order one way or the other.

--Finding something wrong, roll of 20 pass with flying colors. Defend against her ever creeping fingers sliding over your sexy body, not so much roll 5 ten lewd damage.--

Linsay would follow her new lovers eyes as they caressed each other looking deep into them before she would notice. This woman was from her village, she recognized her she had entered the trial the year before her and had not returned. Before Linsay could think on it more her fingers found their way into her wet and ready snatch. Plunging inside her as she wiggled under her moaning in pelasure as their bodies rubbed together. Doing her best to continue pleasing her new lover, or to her old lover. Her eyes finally broke from Linsays as she leaned forward and wrapped her lips around her exposed nipple sucking upon it, her tongue sliding over the nipple back and forth with each light suckle upon her body.

Her fingers remained inside her wiggling back and forth as they worked themselves inside her. Alera was very absorbed in giving her pleasure, and did little to no talking aside from the moans of her own body's pleasure at Linsay's touch. She seemed distant, in some way, as if she had completely expected this outcome and was doing her best to enjoy her fate before it turned worse.

Re: The Trial of the Champion

(How did I take 9 WP damage again?)

Lindsay would take a good look into Alera's eyes. It would soon come to her, she was from the same village as Lindsay. Alera was the one who took to the trial in the previous year but never returned. As she started to think about this, Alera would take the opportunity with Lindsay being distracted to start back on the offensive with two of her fingers being inserted into Lindsay's pussy. For the first time Alera would break eye contact with Lindsay voluntarily as she continued to press her assault. Kissing Lindsay's nipples and using her tongue to tease them further, it was starting to overwhelm Lindsay with pleasure. Alera was determined to repay the orgasm that Lindsay forced from Alera earlier.

(Naughty time part 2, take it and like it)

Lindsay would not attempt to fight it any longer. Alera had a purpose and far be it for Lindsay not to enjoy the rather trained and experienced touch of Alera both on and in her body. Maybe by allowing Alera to have her way with her, she could figure out what exactly was wrong with her. It was obvious that she was not entirely acting of her own accord, but could Alera be saved similarly to how Milla was before? Were there enough people to rally around her, maybe Lindsay could overcome the trials and obstacles that were to be placed in front of her.

It was almost becoming clear to her now that the Lich was not her enemy. The Lich was possibly an ally with the way he acted after his vassal was defeated. The purpose of this trial as a whole was starting to become evident that Lindsay would start to realize the truth of both herself and the world around her. Maybe she could even learn about who her enemies were and who her enemies were not along the way.

Re: The Trial of the Champion

--naughty roll 18 pass like a boss.--

Alera took to her job like a well trained bed slave her fingers exploring every inch of Linsay's lovely body from her hard nipples to her wet pussy. Her fingers sliding in and out of her lovely pussy, each moan from her lovers lips a wordless call pushing her on. Her fingers slide inside her finding her most sensitive spots and massaging it over and over again as she slide her fingers in and out of her rapidly attempting to get the maximum pleasure she could out of her friend. Her lips latched onto one of Linsays nipples as she continued sucking upon her friends body.

Her tongue slide over the nipple with a high level of skill, nothing about her motions were clumsy or lacking the knowledge of exactly where to touch and what to touch. Linsay did little to guide her submissive opponent, but still while enjoying herself remained solidly in control of the event. Her moans of pleasure reeked with the dominance she felt surging through her body. She was in control, and in command and Alera knew it and acted accordingly. Coaxing every last instant of pleasure from her body as she pushed her harder and faster towards her orgasm. The final release Linsay would experience was easily one of the most powerful orgasms she had ever felt, the only exception to when she was beaten onto her back as well. But it came with a secondary pleasure to it, the pleasure of control, of dominance.

As Linsay would come down from her orgasm Alera would lay upon the ground under her. Submissively waiting for what Linsay would do with her next, her eyes still focused but weak. An image floated past Linsay and it was of Alera chained to a wall her legs spread eagle and her cunt dripping with cum. Her final fate, the only fate that appeared for her was one of being little more then a cum dump for others. Her strength all but drained as she lay upon the ground, she did not show fear or remorse for what was coming for her, it was more as if she had always knew she had only one fate, and accepted it long ago.

Re: The Trial of the Champion

Lindsay did not have to say a thing, her body giving Alera all the information she needed to continue pleasing Lindsay. No longer was Lindsay resisting, but simply allowing Alera to have her way with Lindsay's body one final time. The result was one of the most powerful orgasms that Lindsay had ever had the pleasure of experiencing. Alera would use her well trained fingers and tongue to maximum benefit as Lindsay allowed it all. Alera was very highly skilled at this.

Alera needed little in the way of guidance toward what to do or where to go next as she expertly found all the rights spots on Lindsay's body. It was as if Alera's sole purpose in life were to pleasure Lindsay. After coming down from her orgasmic high, Lindsay would see a vision. It was clearly one of Alera, as she were chained to a wall and used as little more than a cocksleeve. The sad part was that Alera seemed to be accepting of this fate.

(Use naughty in an attempt to get Alera to join her now.)

"This is not right. Why not follow me now? What is so different that you will not let me try to save you?"

Lindsay easily could go on with Alera for more. Alera clearly knew all the right spots to engage Lindsay in an almost perfect sonata of passion. That was not why Lindsay was here however. Seeing what was done to Alera, even if Lindsay did not share the same level of feeling for her as Alera did for Lindsay, it was enough to steel her resolve. Lindsay needed to finish her path through the temple. If Alera could be made her's again then the victory would be all the sweeter.

The awkward interaction between Alera and Millia be damned. Every person Lindsay could save from the one she had started to realize was her enemy in the time manipulating master was a victory in of itself. No war was ever won with one single victory, nor one single soldier. Lindsay felt that if she could rally enough people around her that she might just be able to defeat him.

(Tee hee, delusions of grandeur and pipe dreams of the naive.)

Re: The Trial of the Champion

"When we joined our masters army we were told what would happen when we fail. We would die and if we were returned we would be breeding slaves. Creatures of nothing but sating our masters lust, I have no idea how he intended to break us but he had a plan to do so." She said weakly as she smield. "But I would gladly follow you, but that may make him more able to attack you as he can track where I am through time and space, and I would not want to be a weakness to you." She said with her weak smile as a small glowing dot appeared in the air behind the two of them, that slowly grew. Opening into a portal from which a series of tentacles began to slide out of, slowly approaching towards the pair.

A laugh emerged from the portal, it seemed artificial, but still had the same tones as the master. "You have failed me Alera, don't worry in fifteen minutes you wont have enough mind left to care." As the voice laughed and the tentacles approached them, they seemed mostly uninterested in Linsay as they pushed her off and wrapped around Alera. Thrusting into her mouth and down her throat as two more plunged themselves into her pussy and ass. Move moved around her sliding over her body coating her in some slime that they were covered in. Wrapping around her ample breasts and squeezing them as they slowly pulled her towards the portal. Alera's face was shocked for a moment before rapidly descending into lost in pleasure.

--Watch her be dragged away and broken, or fight the tentacles to save her. (I already have a good idea what your gonna do but at the same time I don't wanna over commit you to it.)--

 

[freeko]

Re: The Trial of the Champion

(Yeah, big surprise that she is gonna fight battle the tentacles..)

Alera was still talking as if both Lindsay and Alera both were part of the Master's army. It was clear she was broken, but she was not totally gone. Thinking that she could still be saved, or at least whatever was left of her could be, Lindsay would start to try to win Alera over. It did not take much as Alera freely admitted that she would follow Lindsay, but there was a small catch. Alera would always be at risk of being reclaimed by the Master as she would be able to be tracked through space and time.

Magical shenanigans like this were best left to others, namely Millia. Maybe she would know a way to dispel or destroy whatever it was that allowed Alera to be tracked. Once that was complete, Alera could be free again. All the hopeful thoughts were brought to pass as Lindsay would start to gather her sword and attempt to move on into the temple with Alera by her side.

"You would never be a weakness, though I cannot guarantee that I can keep you safe, Alera."

No sooner does Lindsay say this, as a small portal would start to open. Tentacles would emerge and start to violate Alera, starting to fuck her senseless. The voice that was projected was familiar enough to Lindsay that she knew exactly who it was that had cast the portal, the Master had attempted to reclaim his property and Lindsay needed to sop that from happening.

(Use combat to dissuade the tentacles and free Alera)

Alera was powerless to resist the will of her Master. Lindsay however would almost instinctively spring to action and attempt to destroy the tentacles coming through the portal. Even the smallest victory would show Alera that she could resist her Master. Every asset she could take away from the Master, was one that could be used to help defeat him. Lindsay could not simply sit and watch Alera be dragged away from her like this.

Re: The Trial of the Champion

(Well your dice rolls continue to suck hard but you still win...because I said so also I am really happy with the path Linsay is taking so victory with some tentacle fun.)

--Combat roll 3+14=17 vs 21 4 hp damage, naughty roll 2+10=12 vs 18 6 lewd damage.--

Linsay would move with purpose and speed collecting her blade and swinging into the tentacles violating her new friend. In only three swings her friend would be free again, laying on the ground the liquids from the tentacles oozing from her holes. Linsay would swing into the tentacles over and over but they kept coming towards her, finally wrapping themselves around her body. Two latching onto her nipples as two more disarmed and bound her arms over her head.

New tentacles would emerge and begin rubbing themselves over her body before finally thrusting one of them into her wet ready cunt. Thrusting into her rapidly giving her a surge of pleasure from the penetration. But Linsay had dealt with enemies like this before, she was prepared for that. The pleasure giving her a surge of strength as she broke free rolling back to her blade, once again wailing into the mass of perversion. Finally the tentacles withdrew as one raised up and Linsay sliced her way through it. Before her eyes the portrait of Alera's fate was sliced in two, evaporating before her eyes as the tentacles withdrew.

Linsay would hear the voice of the prophet speak to her. "You have done more then I thought you could, you choose your path without fear. Fighting to bring your ideal to life. You have passed my tests you may come to me and have your fortune told. Only one final task remains before you, while I will allow you your question you must still pass my guardian. Alera will be cared for here and will meet you outside the temple. Good luck warrior of destiny." This voice decidedly male.

Re: The Trial of the Champion

Lindsay acted without hesitation. Seeing Alera attacked by a common enemy, Lindsay would diligently slash through the tentacles that were violating her friend. Unable to stop the tentacles from violating Alera at least they were unable to pull her back through the portal meant to deliver Alera back to her now former Master.

The tentacles would soon in turn overwhelm Lindsay for a short time. Turning their attention to the one woman attacking them the tentacles would appear anew to overwhelm and violate Lindsay now. Initially successful, the tentacles would assault her body with great haste. First binding her arms then penetrating her pussy. The tentacles would start to grope about her body while the tentacle already inside of her started to rapidly thrust about her insides.

As the thrusting continued the tentacles would relax their grip over Lindsay which allowed her to escape. Rolling back to her blafe she was able to claim another victory over the tentacles as they would withdraw back through the portal. Soon after this would happen, a portrait on the wall would be sliced in two. It was the painting depicting Alera's fate.

As this would happen a voice rang out seemingly congratulating Lindsay for choosing the path she believed to be right without hesitation. The voice would further explain that the tests were complete and Alera would be safe. Only what was the final confrontation remained with the guardian of the temple.

(Take the direct path to the guardian)

Two paths would open in front of Lindsay now. One had a portrait of a Priest and the other was unmistakably Millia. Taking a moment to think on things, Lindsay would remember what Millia herself had said before they entered the temple. Even if Millia were to go with Lindsay, they would be tested seperately and were Lindsay to emerge from the trials successfully it would save Millia as well were she to be unable to overcome the trials set before her.

Re: The Trial of the Champion

(Whops sorry I totally thought I had put up a post and didn't notice I missed it. Stupid life being distracting.)

Linsay moved with purpose now, she had a challenge to over come and a path to walk. She entered the final room, at least she though it would be, a creature made of stone stood before her. He looked humanoid but his eye's glowed with magical power. He looked at her and stepped forward.

"Well done seeker of destiny, you have over come your challenge and are now only one step from seeing the prophet. You must best me." He said raising his stone club as he moved towards her with threat in his motions, it was almost certainly not as easy as simply fighting the statue and winning. But nothing else in the room caught her eye, it was a simple circular room, the floor had rubble upon it but nothing else.

--Fight the Golem and see what other tricks it may have up it's sleeve.--

 

[freeko]

Re: The Trial of the Champion

Lindsay would enter the next room and be greeted by what could be described as a stone golem. It was able to speak, so it was likely sentient through magical means. Taking a quick look about the room, Lindsay saw next to nothing that she would be able to use as a hint toward what exactly she was up against aside from small pieces of rubble here and there.

(Use Combat to engage the Golem)

Lindsay would not just allow the Golem to smash her senseless with the club it was brandishing against her. She had simply come too far to give up and be defeated like that. Lindsay would try to approach the Golem in a way that she would not actively attempt to attack it unless she had a clear means to do so. Looking more to see what the Golem was capable of than anything she wanted to feel out the thing to see what it could and could not do.

(Use Explore to investigate the golem)

Feeling that there was not anything around the room, there might be something on the Golem itself that would reveal itself. With her approach to combat being more evasive to start, Lindsay would hope to almost get herself behind the golem to see what she was up against. If there was a weak point or something that could be attacked, she would hope to find it while she was evading the attacks of the Golem.

This was not going to be an easy fight, and Lindsay knew it. If she could find some manner of a weakness that could be exploited, Lindsay might just be able to defeat the Golem. Otherwise she is going to end up being beaten right on the doorstep of her objective, and that was not something Lindsay wanted to have happen.

Re: The Trial of the Champion

--Combat roll 10, vs 12 fail 2 hp damage. Spirit counter attack roll of 6 vs 12 6 spirit damage. Explore roll of 9 vs 8 pass!--

The fight with the golem began well, his movements were slow and lumbering. Still threatening if Linsay was not paying attention but not too much so. Linsay would dodge attacks for the first two wings before surging forward inside his reach and struck at the golem. Her blade connected and stuck for an instant before energy surged through her body. She felt a familiar spell surging through her body, it was forcing her down attempting to make her submit. She was versed enough in fighting this that it hurt but nothing she couldn't handle.

His body was linked to the spell, at least so it seemed. She needed to deactivate it before truly attacking her foe. After a few moments regaining her composure she saw what she had missed before. The floor curved downwards slightly into the center of the room where a plate with a large arcane rune rested. She had walked over it without any issue, so it had to do something to the golem, and hopefully make his open to attack. Although she also knew that if she got a good hit with her blade she would push past the spell and simply kill the golem without disabling it.

Re: The Trial of the Champion

Lindsay almost expected the Golem to have some sort of trick to it, and she seemed to be right. Inevitably Lindsay was going to get hit, it was just part of the battle and the ebb and flow. She did not expect to have it happen when she landed a blow on the Golem though. The Golem seemed to be infused with the same magical energies that she had experienced before. It was meant to attack her mind and force her to lose the will to fight.

Disengaging herself from the Golem she would start to circle around in an attempt to buy some time. She noticed almost immediately why she did not see anything when the battle began as the Golem was on an arcane rune of some kind.

(Use Spirit? to attempt to disable the rune)

Maybe it was a bad idea, but she had the opportune moment to do it. Lindsay figured that the rune had to be the key to disabling the golem instead of attempting to confront it directly. There was a very large risk as Lindsay was not the best at dealing with magical devices. She figured at worse it would send a charge through her body similar to how the Golem would send a charge through her sword that zapped her. It was a dangerous proposition either way and Lindsay would think it smarter to make an attempt to disable the rune than fight the Golem directly.

(Use Combat if the Rune cannot be disabled)

No matter the result of the interaction with the rune, Lindsay would need to prepare herself to resume her battle with the Golem. Maybe she could gain an advantage over the Golem by attacking the rune, but no matter what she needed to make sure she was prepared for the worst. It would seem that no matter what, Lindsay was going to have to brace herself to be hit back as she landed hits either on the rune or Golem directly.

Re: The Trial of the Champion

(The dice they hate you.)

Linsay circled her opponent quickly faster then he could keep track of easily managing to get an opening on the rune in the center of the room. She moved to it and kneeled next to it pushing what little mana she knew how to manipulate into the rune to attempt to destroy it.

--Spirit roll 2, fail 8 spirit damage.--

Her attempt to break the rune seemed mostly workable but as she pushed in the mana she felt it activate instead of break. Sending a surge of raw mana through her body, the electricity causing s spasm in her body. Oddly enough the electricity was not painful, it was pleasurable, but draining. Not like the spell on the golem which actively attacked her, this was simply a magical over charge hitting her like a ton of bricks.

--Combat to fight the golem 18, pass--

The golem moved upon her while she was stunned from her failed attempt with the rune. He swung at her but her body, while burning from the energy flowing through it, still obeyed her commands swiftly. She dived out of the way and the golem's club smashed down onto the rune itself the area around it cracking and the rune glowing more erratically. She had the answer to the puzzel, she needed to break the rune, but the golem was probably her best starting point to do it.

Linsay would stare at it she could easily force the golem to attack it again. Her skill in combat was top notch, but she would have to let herself get hit by the rune again to do it.

Re: The Trial of the Champion

(lol, you can stop rolling d6s any time now.. ;p)

Lindsay would attempt to manipulate the rune, but it would end up with her getting shocked by a spell that would drain her while injecting pleasurable thoughts into her mind. Having been subjected to this in the past, she was able to not lose herself just yet and was able to get out of the way as the Golem's club came smashing down upon her. Avoiding the blow, Lindsay noticed that the rune itself suffered a direct hit from the Golem and was damaged in the process.

(Use explore to see if she could throw rubble at the damaged rune to gauge the reaction)

Lindsay figured it was easy enough to get herself away from the Golem. It was persistent but simply too slow to keep up with her. There was rubble along the ground that Lindsay wanted to throw at the damaged rune. Controlled magic was dangerous, but now she was dealing with a damaged rune that may well do anything when something comes in contact with it next.

Choosing to play it safe a bit, Lindsay would try to throw some of the rubble at the rune to see what she was dealing with now.

--Explore to find another way to break rune, roll 5 fail seven stamina damage. Combat roll to evade the golem 11 pass due to the rune already being weakened, also I feel bad for your rolls.--

Linsay would move about the room keeping her distance from the rune itself, tossing a few more rocks at it trying to get it to react again. After one strike she found that a portion of it deactivated, at least the light of it flickered off. The golem upon her she had little choice but to defend herself striking out with her blade against the stone guardian. Her blade sinking into the creatures chest as it slumped slowly forward towards her. her blade stuck fast into the golem she was forced to leap away or be crushed under his weight as it fell to the ground defeated. The room felt oddly hotter as she glanced at the rune and knew why, the glow was now brighter then it was before and sparks arched off of it.

In a burst of energy the rune exploded outwards sending a surge of energy flowing through Linsay as she was thrown to the wall of the room. The energy still surging through her she could hear the sound of the door onwards opening up for her. She had the path open to her it was just a matter of pulling herself back to her feet and pressing onward.

Re: The Trial of the Champion

(I had the ability to absorb the crappy rolls, so not really all that bothered about it. Unlike planet of pleasure I do win rolls from time to time here at least. Think it has been about a month now since I last won a roll at all there against a monster.)

Lindsay started to throw some of the rubble at the rune in an attempt to gauge what exactly was going to happen. Thinking that it was damaged would make it unpredictable was in no way wrong. Though the rubble itself did not seem to be enough to give her any real clue as to what she was about to get herself into as the rune itself seemed to be dwindling in power. With the Golem now upon her, Lindsay instinctively would counter the attack of the Golem and strike what was likely a fatal blow as the Golem simply slumped and started to fall forward.

Lindsay would have plenty of time to get herself out of the way of the fallen Golem, though she may well have been better off stuck underneath it. The rune would start to act up soon after the Golem stopped functioning and the ensuing explosion would throw Lindsay into the wall. Losing her consciousness for a few moments as she smashed into the wall, she would retrieve her sword from the Golem and notice that the way forward to the prophet was now unlocked.

There was only one way to go now, and Lindsay just needed a few moments to get the ringing out of her ears before moving on to see the prophet and most likely learn about her purpose in the world.

Re: The Trial of the Champion

The next room was dark, and filled with smoke. Visibility was low as a figure emerged from the looming haze and stood before her. A simple man in a long flowing robe it was obvious that more then a few others resided in the room. He spoke in a calm almost serene voice.

"Welcome to the inner sanctum, Linsay you have come here not truly knowing the question you should ask us but you come baring a more general one. I will begin answering this, your destiny is your own to shape as you see fit. What makes you special is that you are the catalyst, your choices shape the world around you as do your deeds." He paused as he moved slowly circling her.

"That means many will try to shape your choices, and lead you down the path they desire. As if you join their path it gives it almost certainty to succeed. But now that you are here I ask you the question I ask all who over come my trials and seek my guidance. What is it you seek to know of your future?" He asked as he stopped three women emerging from the haze dancing through it their robes more revealing and flowing as they dance towards her.
