Alternatively,

The catching up may not require that much of a loophole effort. Say ineffable is stuck in real time, just ensure she gets a notice of what's going on. The character passing out, keeping the golems and dragon seperated for the most part or even seeing to it that the events Ravadon and Edward get into are micromanaged/take a whole lot of time to describe, but a mere few seconds of extremely detailed golum fighting.

In short, time moves forward, but ineffable's actions are greater/consume more time than the others. (Even though this is technically cheating as it would make her posts the thing that drives the plot forward and that could be a risk for future posting, it's something worth considering, for now. You know, while we wait. xD )

I mean something has to give in ya mind man. Which way is it going to tilt is up to you ofc, but waiting is the hardest part for us while coming up with story is the hard part for you.

All right, rewriting the script. Sit tight everyone.

Lore: The Legend of the Twelve Guardians

During humanity's darkest hour, when the Imperial starfleet was destroyed, all defense towers rendered inoperable, and all human life on the planet driven close to extinction, there rose from the earth twelve mighty life forms, called Guardians. They all spawned with a single mission: to protect human life from its enemies. Together, they pushed back the billions of Voidspawn and either destroyed them or forced a retreat through the portal. Most of the twelve perished in the battle; thus far, only the fire dragon Caradras, the Kraken, and the Wyrm are confirmed alive. The Wyrm is believed to have been taken by insanity a few centuries past, and the Kraken restricts his activities to pirate-hunting and making mischief.

Only Caradras has shown any real interest in human affairs. It is Imperial tradition that new Heroes bearing the Mark be initiated with a pilgrimage to the western volcano, where Caradras makes his abode. The dwarves in the region have made a pretty penny off the arrangement. In recent years, the dragon has been cutting himself off from outside contact.

He was last seen attacking Midhaven. He could not be reached for comment at this time.

@Thinslayer
So.. the story is moving forward? O.o

The chance for Edward to show his lazy nature has long since passed with this guy. Oh well better get some jabs in before the brawl starts!

Yup. Can't wait for ineffable forever. In the lore, meeting the Guardian is a rite of initiation for a new Hero, for reasons you'll soon see. Caradras is waiting to see what Ravadon does when faced with a power so much greater than his own.

It's not why Caradras is here, though.

How did you guys like Caradras' introduction?

Loved it.

Sort of wondered if it was for us, though. xD
"@mentions" and all being a thing.

It is I, the frenchiest fry.

Hello Friends ^^;

Yep, it's for everyone. Except StormHeart, 'cuz her character's in the middle of the ocean and about to tackle the Kraken in about 3 in-game days. :P

Hello Friends ^^;

I've heard that quote before somewhere...

Anyway. Time for a Zelda joke:
"Avali's Gale is now ready."

Avali's Gale does have a better ring to it than Revali's... I like it!

And yes, the Frenchiest Thing is a meme I believe.

So, how can we help you? You're enjoying the story, I hope?

I haven't read a bit of IC honestly.

However, I did read the first post in OOC on the "lore" and such. I like the idea ^^;

Awesome! The princess is just about to be kidnapped by the dragon in the story, so you're just in time. Want to join up?

I would love to.

Currently debating what sort of character I go for. If dragons are a common thing, I was thinking of doing someone who worships dragons and such.

Otherwise I may just do the stalwart paladin.

Dragons per se are not very common. The few in existence are extremely powerful (read: plot-important). Wyverns, the two-legged versions, are much more common and are popular air units in national armies. The Kingdom of Dragan is famous for its elite Wyvern units.

That said, there are those who do worship dragons. Caradras tends to kill those people, since he, too, has a god he worships and is rather sensitive about the subject.

Welp, stalwart paladin it is.

Just for lore friendliness, what is the primary religion structured like? Is it similar to a church, and a paladin functioning as a "holy warrior" would work?
