Anna Sandstrom (May 21, 2011 8:42:34 PM)
i forgot was the condition she sing or just tell the story?
Anna Sandstrom (May 21, 2011 8:43:23 PM)
Yeah basically,,,,she is seeking out Jack for the magpie tail so she can tell it to the moot .....
Gabby Girl (May 21, 2011 8:44:43 PM)
She has to tell the story be it in song or in words due to the fact no one in all the stupid wta books has shit on mag pie spirits or whom there patrons are.. i did a bunch of research on the birds themselves and then searched out old tales/ legends/belifs on the bird all through out history i now know a great deal about a bird i never knew squat about.)
Anna Sandstrom (May 21, 2011 8:45:39 PM)

Anna Sandstrom (May 21, 2011 8:47:25 PM)

(approach Captain Jack whom is sleeping on the bawn in lupus)
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 8:49:48 PM)
*Captain jack was sleeping in the tall grass in lupus form not far from the boarders.. he had been pulling many guard duties and not leaving the bawn lately*
Anna Sandstrom (May 21, 2011 8:51:01 PM)
* she walks through the bawn area seeking the Elder and thinks she spies him laying there as she hasn't seen him in this form but she clears her throat and her voice soft as usual* Captian Jack? * she stands with her bag hanging on her side and her jacket looped on top of it *
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 8:53:39 PM)
*His lupus form was a blood red like stephan his ansestor.. His ears twitched as the lupus sence of hearing was so acute.. he regonised his name and the voice which carried it, stirring a bit he looked up seeing slice true.. Slowly he shifted to his homid form letting out a large homid yawn and rubbing the back of his neck tiredly.. He looked rather exhausted..*Yes Slice True-Yuff?
Anna Sandstrom (May 21, 2011 8:55:06 PM)
* she folds her hands in front of her * I am sorry if I have disturbed your rest.....I was hoping you would honor me with a story
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 9:01:48 PM)
*He looked at her and rubbed at his eyes before pushing himself up onto his feet..*
Anna Sandstrom (May 21, 2011 9:02:49 PM)
* she glances around the area and looks back to Jack* Is there anything to worry about with the defenses?
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 9:05:11 PM)
*HE nodded and he motioned her closer.. then he cleared the ground there was a stick beside him.. he began to write in the dirt*
Anna Sandstrom (May 21, 2011 9:05:51 PM)
* she arched a brow but moved a bit closer and gazed at the ground *
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 9:07:40 PM)
~the rest will be written in the earth with his stick* the wind is being chattery and the enemy is currently being fed all we speak outloud as the very air we breath carries it away.. The warder ask no one speak of this outloud as the sept knows that it is going to be attacked by the wyrm and it knows the date in which that attack is coming.. if the enemy finds out we know then we loose the element of suprise so no one can speak of it in any fashion or they will inadvertanly let the wyrm know. Which could cause the wyrm to change its attack date and catch us off guard.
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 9:09:50 PM)
~still written~I have been doing 14 hour guard shifts with crom and others whom know of it have also been on high alert aiding in any way they can.. i hear the mistress of the rites has asked for all those who can aid or are willing to learn to aid in the spirit defences to meet her at a designated time as well.. (forums waiting for everyone to post there avilability before i slam a date and time to those meetings)
Anna Sandstrom (May 21, 2011 9:10:16 PM)
* her gaze changes as she reads the words and she tilts her head a bit and looks back to Jack and she nods*
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 9:17:14 PM)
*Then he erased it and offered her a nod of his head before asking verbally* nothing to worry about with the defences i figured id do some guard duty before we head out on that next umbral sea adventure i know you can not wait to go leaping into umbral waters once more.. *He gave her a wink.. making the enemy think that the fenris would be gone again would be ideal.*
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 9:17:31 PM)
So what story was it you where learning to hear?
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 9:17:38 PM)
(Wanting to learn)
Anna Sandstrom (May 21, 2011 9:19:53 PM)
I see.....* she looks away from the ground and offers her usual small smile* Yes I think that would be wise......I have been told you know of the Magpie Tale.....I recently had one honor me by becoming the occupint ( sp?) of my fetish bag ....
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 9:23:50 PM)
*He looked at the bag, then he looked up at her.. a great big smile on his face.. He motioned her to have a seat as he himself sat in the high grass.. His gaze swept over her a moment..* yes well that is a story I do not hear often enough.. Let me spin it from the begining.. Have a seat get comfortable.. *He pulled out a bottle of water from his bag that was beside him and took a large drink to wash the sleep out of his throat thourgaly.. and added* not to close a seat mind you i have awful morning breath
Anna Sandstrom (May 21, 2011 9:27:19 PM)
* she nodded and took a seat sitting in lotus style placing her jacket and bag in her lap * You may take as much time as you need to prepare
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 9:33:45 PM)
*he smiled at her then he popped a cinnomon stick in his mouth it sort of hung out of his mouth as he chewed on it a bit and seemed to settle in and relax.. he began to tell the tale of the mag pie in such a deep relaxed rumbling voice, that was just pleasent to hear and even lended a sence of security with it. Like hearing a story of days gone by from a grandfather on christmas eve night.. *
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 9:34:23 PM)
If you have ever been out alone, far from any dwelling, at night in the hills or mountains on a cold, crisp night when the moon is bright, and lays a bluish sheen over the snow, an uncanny feeling comes over you that you are in an alien world, one not native to the human animal, and potentially deadly to him. Skadi embodies that sense of dangerous otherness that pervades the winter landscape, for she is a goddess of the mountains and forests of wolves and Mag pie, of hunting and archery. She is traveler over treacherous snow and ice she is the first of the mag pie clan.
Anna Sandstrom (May 21, 2011 9:46:06 PM)
* she settles in and listens to Jack tilting her head every so often as if trying to visualize the setting in her mind*
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 9:46:52 PM)
Our Legends have few descriptions of people, and even fewer of ones so old, so that our sense of Skadi's appearance is either visionary or unsubstantiated personal gnosis. My own sense of her which is very strong, but has no other particular authority, is of a tall, slim, strongly featured woman with very white skin, very deep, very bright, dark blue eyes, and heavy, wavy black hair.
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 9:47:25 PM)
Shortly after Idun's return from Thrym-heim, and Thiassi's death within the bounds of Asgard, the assembled gods were greatly surprised and dismayed to see Skadi, the gian't daughter, appear one day in their midst, to demand satisfaction for her father's death. Although the daughter of an ugly old Hrim-thurs, Skadi, the goddess of winter, was very beautiful indeed, in her silvery armour, with her glittering spear, sharp-pointed arrows, short white hunting dress, white fur leggings, and broad snowshoes; and the gods could not but recognize the justice of her claim, wherefore they offered the usual fine atonement.
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 9:48:48 PM)
Skadi, however, was so angry that she at first refused this compromise, and sternly demanded a life for a life, until Loki, wishing to appease her wrath, and thinking that if he could only make her cold lips relax in a smile the rest would ben easy, began to play all manner of pranks. Fastening a goat to himself by an invisible cord, he went through a series of antics, which were reproduced by the goat; and the sight was so grotesque that all the gods fairly shouted with merriment, and even Skadi Clan leader of the Mag Pie was forced to smile. Taking advantage of this softened mood, the gods pointed to the fimament where her father's eyes glowed like radiant stars in the northern hemisphere. They told her they had placed them there to show him all honour, and finally added that she might select as husband any of the gods present at the assembly, provided she were content to judge of their attractions by their naked feet.
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 9:49:58 PM)
Blindfolded, so that she could see only the feet of the gods standing in a circle around her, Skadi looked about her and her gaze fell upon a pair of beautifully formed feet. She felt sure they must belong to Balder, the god of light, whose bright face had charmed her, and she designated their owner as her choice.
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 9:53:49 PM)
When the bandage was removed, however, she discovered to he chagrin that she had chosen Niord, to whom her troth was plighted; but notwithstanding her disappointment, she spent a happy honeymoon in Asgard, where all seemed to delight in doing her honour. After this, Niord took his bride home to Noatun, where the monotonous sound of the waves, the shrieking of the gulls, and the cries of the seals so dusturbed Skadi's slumbers that she finally declared it was quite impossible for her to remain there any longer, and she implored her husband to take her back to her native Thrym-heim.
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 9:54:22 PM)
Niord, anxious to please his new wife, consented to take her to Thrym-heim and to dwell thee with her nine nights out of every twelve, providing she would spend the remaining three with him at Noatun; but when he reached the mountain region, the soughing of the wind in the pines, the thunder of the avalanches, the cracking of the ice, the roar of the waterfalls, and the howling of the wolves appeared to him as unbearable as the sound of the sea had seemed to his wife, and he cound not but rejoice each time when his period of exile was ended, and he found himself again at Noatum.
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 9:56:13 PM)
For some time Nirod and Skadi, who are the personifications of summer and winter, alternated thus, the wife spending the three short summer months by the sea, and he reluctantly remaining with her in in Thrym-heim during the nine long winter months. But, concluding at last that their tastes would never agree, they decided to part for ever, and returned to their respective homes. It is said that the Skadi then married Odin to which they bore many children from there pairing one of which was the legendary Hladir jarls.. It is important to note that this Warrior Women of the Mag Pie Clan hunted the Snowey mountains beside the wolves, she honored the prey in which substained her, she lived in the harshest conditions, and showed no fear even to the gods themselves. Like the mag pie her pale skin only accented by the beauty of her raven colored hair.. She challenged the very gods themselves when they murdered her father and to this day her laugh at Lokis pranks can be heard in the mag pies cry.
Captain Jack (May 21, 2011 9:57:29 PM)
*He then took a large sip of his bottled water before looking back at anna as the story had finaly conculded about the snow queen of the mag pie clan and the spirit of the mag pie in the presence of the fenris tribe*
Anna Sandstrom (May 21, 2011 10:00:19 PM)
