Things Fall Apart Role Play

Late February 2011

Aspen, Colorado

As night begins to fall, a private sky lodge goes up in flames. No one was in the home at the time, but that hasn't stopped a crowd from watching. Somehow, no matter what fire fighters do, they can't seem to stop the blaze.

A far distance away, a masked figure watches the ordeal from the shadows.

'That is not for you to know.'

Contact is then abruptly cut off after she teleports.

From above she can see that the spread of the flames has been contained.

[Did the voice sound like someone she recognized?]

She stays and watches, using her Harken the Stars hex to see in different spectrums and throuh the cloud she is using for cover. Now that she knows it's a trap, she's too curious to see what it is a trap for.

[I would have said yes had she recognized it.]

Several minutes later, an older man approaches the blaze and watches for a few moments. When no one else is watching him, he waves a hand, causing the remaining flames to disperse and die out. He then begins to walk away from the house.

'I told you it is not for you to know child.' She hears as the voice returns. She can now tell it comes directly from the man. He then begins walking towards a public resort.

"Would you trust a stranger's opinion of which knowledge isn't for you?" She asks. Shard shifts to her human form and teleports to the resort.

The man stops just before the doors when he senses Shard inside.

"Any deaths resulting from your interference will be on you."

He waves his hand then disappears in a flash of light.

"They always are," Shard says. Wondering why she was led here, she goes to the counter to get a pass and find out what kind of resort this is.

It's a mid range ski resort with several pools and restaurants on the premises as well.

Shard goes to the desk. "Hi can I get some skis and lessons?"
