" ye didda have any cliam on my life or the lives of me brothers... we are ronin...and i'm lost i didda get the way this place is... it is very confusing out here"

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 12:08:05 AM)
ws Exactly. You are Ronin. You turned your back on your totem Father in order to follow a half tainted Bat spirit you know next to nothing about. I wasn't against attempting to help that spirit Star, but that was not the time or place. Unknow spirits need to be studied. Yes your bargain worked and behold the cost. You are now outcaste to the Nation and bear a taint too deep to normally cleanse.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 12:08:59 AM)
ws There are many a pack that kill Ronin on sight. You are in a very precarious position.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 12:09:39 AM)
ws But no I don't seek your life.

Star That sings of life (Aug 2, 2010 12:09:47 AM)

" if anyone be making cliams on me life it be evie... "

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 12:12:30 AM)
ws But you don't get it. I could claim your life. You violated territory. You are niave of how savage the world can truly be. The difference is I don't want your life. You also owe contrition to me for breaking the litany. One does not challenge in a time of war and you challenged me with your words. If contrition is given, and given by those two who have forsaken Uktena. I can remove your deep taint, which will put you on the road to redemping yourself to the Nation.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 12:13:42 AM)
ws And I do not lie, I know a ritual that cleanses deeper than the common one known to other tribes.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 12:14:47 AM)
ws You made your choice. But contrition to me for your disrespect can make your path easier.

Star That sings of life (Aug 2, 2010 12:15:08 AM)
((contrtion?))

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 12:15:16 AM)

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 12:19:10 AM)
ws The two former Uktena the contrition is NOT to me. It is to the totem they have forsaken. I'm not that arrogant. Yours however will be to me. You disrespected me during a critical time. I can help, but I shall do nothing unless things are corrected between us. You may tell your cohorts, I know the Rite of Balance. If they are at all knowledgable of Fathers ways, they will know it for the advanced cleansing rite I say it is. Give them my message, and kindly to not return to my pack territory unless you are ready to give such contritions. I grant you a drink and a meal and then depart. Which is kinder than I need to be.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 12:22:27 AM)
ws I am also seeking knowledge from the Lords. It is rumored some of them seek the redemption of Bat. If there is any hope for that near insane Spirit you've chosen to follow it may be in that. I'll do some research.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 12:23:36 AM)

*she pricks an ear*

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 12:24:19 AM)

Interesting....yet still you remained deeply tainted. I'll look into this rumor among the Lords. Perhaps there is something that can help further. In the long run you might have done a great thing. Or time will show this to be the great folly of a foolish three. It is hard to tell at this point. Still forsaking your tribal totem. *shakes head* Foolish girl. You have lept blindly and it's still unknown how far down your leap my go. All I can say is I'll try to study this. But no rite until things are balanced again between us.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 12:48:24 AM)
ws If she gives contrition for her disrespect to me.....I can probably cleanse her. I know rites beyond the norm. Bah...she has the details now. Her job is to tell those .....others my conditions. I don't wish to see her again near my home until shes ready to give contrition.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 12:56:08 AM)
Theres some group, a cult of sorts trying to recruit kin. Saying we garou are slavers or worse. They had silver.

Megan Hunt (Aug 2, 2010 12:56:47 AM)
Well, I was one of two kin that they were trying to recruit, and what does it matter if they had silver?

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 12:58:11 AM)
Some old myths are true. We can be shot, stabbed, run over with cars, and we regenerate and keep going. But silver....*shudders* like an allergy but worse. We can't regenerate from it well, we can take grievous wounds. Silver means they truly intend to kill garou.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 12:58:50 AM)
Silver in human form doesn't do much. But when we shift......damn.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 12:59:14 AM)

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:01:01 AM)
Much more likely in Ahrouns...which is why when I say kin that bait garou are suicidal has alot of truth.

"Jenny pulled us backstage, the rest people pretty much know

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:02:15 AM)

*She took a deep breath*

Megan Hunt (Aug 2, 2010 1:04:01 AM)
"What is wrong with Star? She said she left our family, how can you leave a family?"

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:05:29 AM)
Each tribe....is guided by a great Father or Mother spirit. A totem. These spirits are greater than the pack totems. For each garou tribe is just that, a tribe...extended families that follow certain ways and ideals. The bond to tribe is almost as important as pack.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:07:04 AM)
Some tribes are bound by liniage as are the Fangs. Others more by the ideals. Tribe is rituals, ways, philosophy, a path. Star was Child of Gaia, a tribe that works to heal and promotes peace and understanding within the greater Garou Nation. They follow the Totem Father of Unicorn.

Megan Hunt (Aug 2, 2010 1:07:28 AM)
She was listening closely.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:09:44 AM)
During our mission to fetch the Spear we were confronted by a grieving mother Bat spirit. Long ago, the garou, Shadow Lords to be precise, killed off all the Bat shifters. It was a grave sin. And in her grief and madness Bat fell to the Wyrm. Or so it was mostly understood. But sometimes spirits break into parts. The...piece of Bat retained some of it's sanity, but much rage and grief. Still tainted but not completely fallen or evil. Insane and dangerous yes but wholey evil? No.

Megan Hunt (Aug 2, 2010 1:11:33 AM)
"And so Star, believing she could save the Bat Spirit abandoned her family for this other spirit.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:11:45 AM)
Star and two others ....were so moved by it's grief that they did not head my orders to leave her alone. That making bargains with unknown spirits is dangerous. Well....I admit the mission for the spear wasn't going well. There was a lake of fire a barrier, and our attempts to cross were less than successful. I feel had those three listeneed to me and bent there minds to the mission, we'd have found another less ...damaging way to complete it.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:13:44 AM)
Instead yes.....they turned there backs on there very tribes, and decided to follow this tainted Bat spirit, that besides for a sad tale, we know next to nothing about. The spirit may not be wholey of the wyrm but it's wyrm shadowed. They made an unwise decision, and because they now have no tribe.....they are no longer apart of the greater garou nation either. Not enemies, but outcaste all the same.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:14:42 AM)
Does that help you understand?

Megan Hunt (Aug 2, 2010 1:14:59 AM)
"Yes a little bit."

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:16:46 AM)
I don't want Star near my home until she ritualistically apologizes to me for her disrespect. If it's done I'll see if I can remove her taint. That girl runs her mouth to much. Shes dangerously niave and ignores those who know better. If she can swallow her pride and apologize, then I can do something to help. But there must be balance again.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:18:34 AM)
Basically she all but called me a cold hearted bitch. And belittled my grief for my pack. And I admit I'm petty enough that she can go camp in the mud until she says shes sorry. Shes up a creek without a paddle....I could give her a paddle but not until she makes nice.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:19:10 AM)
Want a sandwhich?

Megan Hunt (Aug 2, 2010 1:20:26 AM)
"I'm not extremely hungry, but, please tell me more about the spirit world and things, it seems very important to the garou

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:21:23 AM)
Imagine a lake.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:21:44 AM)
The surface of the lake, the cute ducks, the lilly pads. Thats earth. Thats what you know.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:22:38 AM)
Problem is to humans and most things, the lake is....like ice. Like its winter. You walk on it, you don't even see underneath it's surface.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:23:01 AM)
That surface we call the Guantlet.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:24:10 AM)
It's invisable really, more a matter of feel. But those like garou who are sensitive can find a hole in the ice. Or in some places the ice is thin or almost non existant.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:24:28 AM)
Anyway we garou get to dive into the lake.

Megan Hunt (Aug 2, 2010 1:26:09 AM)
She was listening intently

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:26:44 AM)
And underneath the surface is an entirely different world. Oh like how the ocean is verses land. The spirit realm is totally alien to you I know.....But it's where ideas are real things, where nightmares come alive......but short of bringing you there, which I can't, can a bird really explain to a fish what it's like to fly?

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:28:32 AM)
Some of it .....just on the other side of the ...surface, is a reflection of this world. But things are stranger. The wilderness is more....vibrant. But the cities show there sicknesses more readily. Like a ghetto neighborhood in the umbral will be a fear darknened blight with banes haunting the streets.

Megan Hunt (Aug 2, 2010 1:28:54 AM)
what's a bane?

Megan Hunt (Aug 2, 2010 1:29:17 AM)
"I understand some of what your saying, the metaphore helps."

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:31:04 AM)
A spirit that fell entirely to the wyrm. An evil spirit. They look monsterous usually. They like to feed off of pain, anger, cruelity. The worst of them influence humans and others to greater depths of it to feed them. The Wyrm didn't invent pain, fear, and misery but it certainly learned how to egg it along and make matters worse.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:33:22 AM)
There are as many types of banes as leaves on a tree, but none of them are good.

Megan Hunt (Aug 2, 2010 1:33:46 AM)
what do spirits have to do with kinfolk? I mean they are very much a part of garou

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:35:45 AM)
Realively little actually. Except for a few rare cases where some kin got spirit favor, and....don't ask me how they did that, for the most part kin don't deal with spirits. Garou are half spirit, it's how we cross so easily. It's how we are of the two worlds. Kinfolk are not.

Megan Hunt (Aug 2, 2010 1:38:29 AM)
"that's strange, from all I've heard kinfolk have the same blood that tun through their veins yet you say they are not half spirit?

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:41:22 AM)
Thats where Gaia comes in herself. Some of being garou seems to be the bloodlines. But why is one sister kin and another brother trueborn? It's not something that has turned up in DNA tests that I'm aware of. And *snorts* I'm sure some Glasswalkers have tried. Theres something spiritual that is different. My human people simply believe the wolf spirit blessed me, most garou say Gaia chooses. I've no certain answer, I just know the difference seems to be spiritual in nature.

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:43:16 AM)
I'm going to sleep here tonight I think. I think I had also best put better markings on the property. I'm thinking just some posted posters on trees or so.

Megan Hunt (Aug 2, 2010 1:43:50 AM)

"I don't expect perfect answers. You remind me of my grandmother sometimes, she deals with spirits using voodoo

Sarah Runningfox (Aug 2, 2010 1:46:03 AM)
I'm not exactly voodoo. But I was raised with shamonistic beliefs. When your human people already believe in animal spirits and speaking to the clouds and the winds...it's not a far stretch into believing most anything has a spirit counterpart somehow.

Megan Hunt (Aug 2, 2010 1:46:15 AM)
