*Quietly sips tea*

Jolly good show there. I must say i admire your work Azrael.

[Kiasyd]

Some extremely salient points, Azrael, thank you. *nodding* Indeed, one should always be careful when seeking to open gateways, to the soul or to any other location. I am not a practitioner of the Necromantic arts myself; they seem a little ... vulgar in their execution.

*pouring more tea*

Hubris is so often the downfall of anyone who seeks to aim too high; Cainites are by no means immune, alas ...

*thoughtful sip*

But perhaps, if it is possible for darker dreams tio manifest, then we may still hear the whispered words of the Divine in our dreams also?

[That's quite all right, Michael - I try to make it a point never to assume anyone's gender online I had thought that both Michael and Xemiel were character names, as it happens, as I have characters of both genders myself. Added to that, so many online names are gender-neutral that one can't make too many assumptions ]

[Azrael The 7th Murderer]

No doubt that more...pleasant dreams, can come to the Cainite soul, but I would say that it depends on who or what kind of attention you attract.

Far too many Cainites succomb to the so called Beast in either sublte or dramatic ways, and thus the attention gained is rarely pleasant.

Others however are more at peace with themselves and thus gentle and kinder spirits may come to their dreams.

As for if the Divine could whisper its words to the sleeping Cainite, I cannot answer. For eons has God not directly stared upon Creation, and none can truly know the whereabouts of the Allmaker and her servants, and thus making anything coming from the Divine all less possible.

I'm afraid, my friend that this truly is a World of Darkness. Whatever hope you may garner, keep it and hold onto it as though your very existence depended on it. I may well do so some day.

[Kiasyd]

Wise words for solemn times, my friend. Temperance is a necessity when one's soul is at stake. It is difficult to balance one's nature with the demands of the Beast, but without speaking too much on such indelicate matters, I will say that it can be resisted ... And no hidden knowledge worth possessing comes at an easy price.

The Almighty left even Caine with the hope of redemption, and in that knowledge, there is hope for us all.

*a thoughtful pause, then, after finishing the chalice*

A most interesting discussion, gentlemen!

Kiasyd

[Xemiel]

*directs a thought into Kiasyd's mind* And it certainly seems to me, anyway, that you have attracted just the right sort of attention for one wishing to have more pleasant dreams.

[Azrael The 7th Murderer]

Quite indeed, this is the type of conversation writers and readers dream of. Intriguing, interesting, informing and well spoken. Why, I almost feel like the Romantic Vampire type.

[Kiasyd]

*bows* Thank you; your words are gracious and I am highly complimented.

It is conversations such as these, and the company I find here that keep me returning to this board above any other. Hidden knowledge, I will venture to say, is not so sweet as that same lore shared with fellow scholars. Gentlemen, I salute you! *raises the glass* Long may we thrive!

Kiasyd

[Xemiel]

I have to agree. And might I add that I am quite greatful that you are more social than perhaps some of your brethren. It is often difficult even to find your kin, let alone have long standing relations with them

[Azrael The 7th Murderer]

Long may we thrive indeed. And lets make this alliance an example to all around us that given time, Cainite, Sebettu and Nephilim can indeed be friends and allies.

*raises cup*To immortality, and to immortal knowledge.

[Xemiel]

What about Garou? *feels that his alter-ego is being left out*

[Jagash]

Yes, very true Xemiel. We must give thanks to our feast for providing itself for our consumption.

*raises obsidan and silver chalace*

To knowledge and friendship!

[Azrael The 7th Murderer]

Not bad this Garou...tastes like chicken though.

[Xemiel]

... Precisely what, I wonder, makes you think that the Garou are not a match for a couple Licks and a few new Banes or two?

[Azrael The 7th Murderer]

Hey, don't ask me, ask Jagash. After all, he suggested the Lycanthrope feast.

[Xemiel]

I was already asking both of you

[Azrael The 7th Murderer]

Well I don't have the answer for that. But maybe that a Garou vs a Nephilim would have less chances...Oh, crap, I just made a WW forumite question! Kill me now!

[Xemiel]

*kills Azrael and lets him worry about ressurecting himself* *loves being a demon*

Seriously, bad Az! No WWW questions!

[Azrael The 7th Murderer]

*Depending on how he kills me, I heal and get up* Sorry about that, must be the fatigue or the WW forum question I posted yesterday.

Now I'd recomend you not trying that again. It took all of Lucifer's army to bring us down, and we were pretty much a handful compared to you guys. Plus, years in the Deadrealms have made me more potent than I was, and the essence of an Earthbound flows within me as well. I wouldn't enjoy losing a friend for a dumb question that far too many *kewl powerz* WW forumites ask.

[Xemiel]

Just as long as we don't begin any WW forum style Who Will Win threads, the peace will be kept *whistles innocently*

[Azrael The 7th Murderer]

Why does that whistling not inspire confidence? *starts shining scythe* I don't want to begin any WW Who Will Win thread. At least, not here.
