Entry 24 - Wheely Dies

Okay, I gotta admit. I had fun with this tonight.

After complaining about the story aspects of Uru in my last entry, I logged on tonight as Helper HC. Soon Helper420 logged on and told me she had a back way into the full public city. It seems that if you enter someone elses private instance of the city through their Kadish Gallery book, but they don't follow you, you default into the public city. Unfortunately, the DRC were prepared for this and had the gallery doors blocked off so we couldn't leave the gallery, but we could still follow the chat.

Below is the log I took of the chat, with some unfortunate public comments by your's truly. After I was done with this I logged on as HCIsland and noticed that there was room for one more in the public city entering through the Nexus (lucky me!). I went over to the bar - where I knew the accident happened - and snapped a pic. By then things had settled down a lot. You'll find the pic towards the bottom of this post.

Anyway, the short of it is that Wheely is dead. The kicker is she seemed fine but died when the DRC went down to get her, apparently killed by a Bahro who repeatedly said Nobolen over and over. Nobolen is an Age that appears in the game Myst V and was a location where the D'Ni tortured and gamed with the Bahro, ala the Roman Coloseum.

Things certainly are getting fun.

Anyway, here's the chat log.

(05/22 20:53:07) Michael Engberg: Wheely.
(05/22 20:53:31) [ Shadow ]: I would not go untill it is safe.
(05/22 20:53:32) Wheely: "No... livin"? It sounds like no livin'.
(05/22 20:53:44) Michael Engberg: Just sounds.
(05/22 20:53:50) Wheely: What does that mean, Dad? Hurry!
(05/22 20:53:50) Michael Engberg: Just sounds honey. It doesn't talk.
(05/22 20:53:54) From Helper420 in D'ni-Ae'gura: bahro are getting restless
(05/22 20:53:56) Michael Engberg: We're coming.
(05/22 20:54:00) Michael Engberg: I'm coming.

(05/22 20:54:38) To Helper420: do you have any popcorn :)
(05/22 20:54:39) Wheely: Noloben! That's it!
(05/22 20:54:45) Michael Engberg: Wheely! Just look at me.
(05/22 20:54:48) Wheely: What does that mean?
(05/22 20:54:53) Michael Engberg: Nothing.
(05/22 20:54:56) Wheely: Why is it saying that?
(05/22 20:55:02) Michael Engberg: I don't know.
(05/22 20:55:07) Xavius: Well, that's the question, eh?
(05/22 20:55:15) Wheely: That's just an age, right Dad?
(05/22 20:55:30) Michael Engberg: Don't worry about that. We're about ready to come down.
(05/22 20:55:35) Michael Engberg: We're coming.
(05/22 20:55:38) Wheely: Dad, get me out. This thing is mad or crazy!
(05/22 20:55:47) Xavius: Beach age?
(05/22 20:55:59) Michael Engberg: Move back from the hole just to be safe. I'm coming down.
(05/22 20:56:00) Xavius: Maybe this'll sink into an island or something?
(05/22 20:56:04) Michael Engberg: Here I come.
(05/22 20:56:12) From Helper420: Beech-wood aged
(05/22 20:56:13) Wheely: I'm stepping back but it's all over the place!
(05/22 20:56:15) Michael Engberg: Start lowering me down.
(05/22 20:56:18) Michael Engberg: Let's go.
(05/22 20:56:29) Xavius: Maybe the hand-sign leads to Noloben.
(05/22 20:56:29) Michael Engberg: C'mon, what are we waiting for?
(05/22 20:56:32) Xavius: Or..
(05/22 20:56:33) Wheely: It's not liking this...
(05/22 20:56:47) Michael Engberg: Let's go. Here I come.
(05/22 20:56:48) Wheely: Noloben! It keeps saying Noloben louder and louder!
(05/22 20:57:30) Xavius: Maybe it wants to get back to Noloben?
(05/22 20:57:34) Wheely: Dad?
(05/22 20:57:35) Helper HC cracks a cold brewskie
(05/22 20:57:42) Michael Engberg: I'm just about there.

Gawkers At The Accident Site

(05/22 21:10:02) To Helper420: I may have to lay low with my Helper avatar
(05/22 21:10:04) Ieddo: Ki doesnt run according to life force unfortunatly
(05/22 21:10:04) Xavius: -.-
(05/22 21:10:17) To Helper420: that was embarassing
(05/22 21:10:21) Xavius: She's a highscool freshman, I think..
(05/22 21:10:36) Xavius: She was mauled by the Bahro.
(05/22 21:10:42) Xavius: Or whatever it was.
(05/22 21:10:42) To Helper420: the brewskie comment that is
(05/22 21:10:51) Ieddo: No one said she was mauled
(05/22 21:10:54) Ieddo: Its an assumption
(05/22 21:11:05) From Helper420: I bet is was
(05/22 21:11:31) Helper HC shakes his head
(05/22 21:11:32) Xavius: It seems pretty likely, doesn't it?
(05/22 21:11:39) From Helper420: They saw that also
(05/22 21:11:43) Xavius: I suppose a gaggle of other things could've happened.
(05/22 21:11:44) To Helper420: man
(05/22 21:11:48) Ly'net: WHEELY!
(05/22 21:11:57) Leonor: Could you guys hear anything? The Bahro saying it? Or did just wheely say it to you?
(05/22 21:11:57) Xavius: But none of them seem to really matter, since there's the end result.
(05/22 21:12:01) To Helper420: no more emotes
(05/22 21:12:01) ngc2392: Her KI should be active if she's aliva
(05/22 21:12:13) From Helper420: use control functions
(05/22 21:12:33) Xavius: If her Ki's still on, she might be alive..
(05/22 21:12:46) From Helper420: might is a strong word
(05/22 21:13:14) Leonor: What did you guys suggest from here?
(05/22 21:14:21) Leonor: Maybe the Bahro are treating us like the least now... Because of what Yeesha said...
(05/22 21:14:40) From Helper420: what kind of wording was that?
(05/22 21:14:47) To Helper420: what did yeesha say?
(05/22 21:14:55) From Helper420: don't know
(05/22 21:15:05) Cierdwyn: wow the bahro are active right now ..
(05/22 21:15:15) Xavius: That's because they know something they can't tell.
(05/22 21:15:34) From Helper420: since when are we able to use a harness?
(05/22 21:15:38) Cierdwyn: lots of chattering and cries ..
(05/22 21:16:31) Xavius: You know, for all we know, that Bahro's been there since the fall of D'ni.
(05/22 21:16:31) Helper420 is sad
(05/22 21:17:25) To Helper420: now that went out
(05/22 21:17:33) From Helper420: Wanna go back to the bevin?
(05/22 21:17:51) To Helper420: sure - I think things are done here.
(05/22 21:17:53) Helper420: corbin is there
(05/22 21:17:56) ...Chat.log stopped.
