"That Shendu Roleplay"
When Shendu failed to show up for the latest Gathering, held in the Air territory; this was a cause for concern. Olorzxx and Izett, sure- they missed Gatherings all the time, in Olorzxx's case through no fault of his own. But Shendu was not typically one to do such things.
At the close of the Gathering, Tivialous voiced his concerns to Ysera that perhaps Shendu had been injured, or was facing trouble of some kind. In any case, this uncharacteristic behaviour did not sit well with the Light Elemental. He and Earth agreed to fly to the Ice lands to seek out its monarch.
Shendu met them with a lack of respect, and veiled threats. Unable to learn very much at all, the two soon departed. However, by this stage it was obvious that something was up. Shendu was planning something- whether an invasion, or what, none could say for sure.
Not long after in the Dark territory, while meeting with his friend Darkflame and her Creator Icarus; Selgar the Ice Creation suddenly felt the irresistible summons of his Creator. He left to return to the Ice, but something about his behaviour made Icarus and Darkflame suspicious. And they had right to be: no sooner had Selgar found Shendu when the Elemental, dissatisfied with Selgar's refusal to blindly obey him, weakened him and stripped him of his ability to withstand the cold. Helpless, Selgar would probably have died if not for a fortunate turn of events.
His friend Thorndike (whose roleplayer has since left) had promised to send help if he did not hear from Selgar within a particular period of time. He gathered a group of Creations; comprised of Darkflame, MoonJem and D, and led them into the Ice territory to search for their missing companion.
They braved the cold and found him, but before long were confronted by Shendu himself. The timely arrival of the Air Ambassador, Quintus, distracted the Elemental for a while. But then he returned in full force, causing the ice to tear itself apart around them while leaving the Creations with a warning: a seemingly nonsensical message which he gave the group as it fled, a message which he knew would spread amongst the others.
Has Shendu gone mad? What plans does he have for dragonkind? Only time will tell- for now; a more pressing concern is about to take place: Dragonsdeep.
(please let me know if I omitted details or got something wrong, it has been a while).
N.B: Anything here referring to Shendu should now be taken as referring to Viamor.
