The Asylum

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

"Do not play games with me, mortal. I am looking for the one who stole my cloak. Return it and the perpetrator or else there will be consequences. I can either take away day or night from this place. Or both and leave you all in timeless void!"

*Karn mouths silently "no" and shakes his head*

[HoopyFrood]

For goodness sake, people are so dramatic these days. Voids this, wars that, destroying realms, I-can-kill-you-like-that etc etc.

And I'm not playing games, you've lost a cloak, tell me what it looks like and I might be able to help. And stop shouting, you're inside.

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

*Nyx growls in frustration*


"Just tell me where my starred cloak and that elemental who stole it is. If you do this, then I will be in your debt, mortal."

[HoopyFrood]

Starred, you say? What, like what a magician or a wizard wears? *Thinks* Have I seen one of those around...

Are you sure it's been stolen? It seems like quite a fancy thing to let it get nabbed so easily.

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

"Yes, my shimmering, black, star-embossed cloak. And I am certain it was stolen. Please, if you know where it is, please tell me where the thief is hiding!"


*Karn silently picks up his black bag and steps past Hoopy and Nyx and into the mural*

[HoopyFrood]

*Shrugs* Wouldn't know, miss. There's things going on around here that I don't think anyone could hope to keep up with, so I'm not gonna try.

Maybe you should stitch your name into it, we had to do that with our P.E kits. Gets returned pretty quickly if you lose things, then.

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

*Nyx stares at her* "Alright, I shall return later. If you will, tell others who establish this place that I am looking for my cloak and that a reward will be offered for its return and the apprehension of the thief." *She steps back through her nightly portal*

*Karn steps through the mural again as the portal closes* Thanks for not telling her, Hoopy.

[The Ace]

Freda hugs Hoopy.

"OK Karn, why did you nick the cloak ?"

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

It's a gift for Toronta. For the wedding.


That and the fact that I've never gotten along with Nyx. She's stolen a couple things of mine in the past.

[HoopyFrood]

Tut. Such deviousness in the world.

*Scratches Freda's head*

[The Ace]

It's not like miraculous cloaks are hard to find. Just keep your paws off mine.

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

No, I don't steal from friends.


And Toronta didn't want your cloak, she has six like them already. At least, ones that give off a shock to those who mean harm....

......

Okay, you got me. She wanted Nyx's cloak specifically because it contains the elemental essence of darkness.

*makes his dramatic return dragging a large trolley behind himself, the trolley itself filled with large sealed wooden boxes and all drape with garlic necklaces; the wolf himself muttering under his breath*
You wouldn't believe the price of cheese today..

*before looking up*
Ahh morning all! And tis a fine dark moonlite night it is!

[The Ace]

Don't tell me, you need help from someone with thumbs....again.

[HoopyFrood]

Mmm, cheese...
