The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

The Lost Tale Of Eymreil

just tell him that sur sent yu ' sur said ' the book  is magics and mysteries, is a veery rare book, there have only been 20 or so copies found. it details the working of a long extinct cult. ' Sur said. he handed Qamaret a piece of paper with the name of the book written on it.
Qa'Meret was surprised at the information. - "Wow, you are trusting us such a rare book, we will not dissapoint you." - He said and started walking towards the exit - "Did you hear that? magic books seem to be after you, hehehe" - he told the kid trying to be funny.

Kyo was able to make a smile. - "I hope this book will not be an evil one, you should have felt what I did feel a while ago." - he said as he shrugged.

"Well, we are going now, Mr Sur" - Qa'Meret said and both newcomers came out of the store. - "I think it is a good time to practice my songs as we walk to our destinations" - and the Khajiit took his lira and started singing a fast funny song about silly adventures.

Chaka nodded, "That is a very good idea.  We have to try to have it last as long as it possibly can." She said.

As the bard and the kid were walking following the streets of Sorra, it could be seen that Kyo was enjoying listening to Qa'Meret's song, he then looked forward as they both arrived to a very large terrain with a huge mansion. - "Wow, this must be the biggest house I have seen since we've arrived here." - Kyo said as he was examinating with his keen eyes, all around the house.

Qa'Meret was indeed happy to see the kid with a better mood now, as they didn't met in the best of circumstances to begin with. - "Well then, we should not make Sur to wait for too long, I am going to ask for Lord Arstan." - the Bard got closer to the home where he found a servant. - "Excuse me, we've came by the Book-keeper Sur's request, and we would like to talk with Lord Arstan." - the Khajiit was indeed very polite in his manners, learning those as he travelled from town to town.

"do you think I should wait here? I don't want to cause any problems" - Kyo said as some of the people nearby stared at him due to his cloak and hood.

"Don't be silly little one..." - Qa'Meret replied with a smile. - "You are not a troublemaker, you are almost as silent as a statue." - he laughed a bit and then he said. - "stop worrying so much, I think you should start trying to consider having some fun for as long as you stay here."

Kyo looked up to him and after some seconds, he nodded. - "Yeah, you are right, I suppose." - he made a small smile as both of them waited for a reply.

"Thank you." - Qa'Meret replied and both newcomers entered the house, which was very luxurious. The walls decorated with paintings, and some sculptures, the mansion also had high ceilings and the floor was also very nice, quite the difference with anything else seen in the city of Sorra so far, Kyo been the first to notice that change. The servant led them to a small hall where they waited - "I think that if I sing for another 250000 years, i might make enough money to buy a house like this one." - the Khajiit replied in much amazement as he is not used to such places.

"I hope what we have left will last long enough." Chaka said, hoping they had enough for a while.  "Travel can be expensive indeed."

"Thank you very much. I like the amibility of this place." - Qa'Meret said to the servant.

In the meantime, Kyo got closer to the table and grabbed a sweet roll - "These people surely have a good hand."

"I am more curious about all the kinds of business Lord Arstan run, he must be very good if he got to mass a fortune by himself." - the Khajiit commented as he looked at the table and the room they are in.

"I am sure that he is busy with many things, but don't worry, i am not going to sniff around his business, because I also have obligations on my own." - the Khajiit replied with a smile as he gave a quick glance at the kid, who was enjoying a sweet roll. - "we will wait here so you have no need to worry about."

"Lord Arstan, it is a privilege to meet you sir..." - Qa'Meret said with a tone of voice carefully not wanting to speak louder but visible surprised to see that Arstan is a Khajiit. "I am Qa'Meret and the boy with my is Kyo, and we came under petition by Sur to get a book that is currently under your possession."

Qa maret? i've heard of you. you're the wandering ministrel who moves from town to town, plying your wares for some gold and a bed.' arstan said. ' so you came for the book? Very well, i've been holding it a couple days, since i managed to get my hands on a copy. not easy, but then again Surs requerests usually result in some expense on my account. Hes a good sort though, andf hes a wealth of knowledge. Follow me and I'll give you the book" the lord said.

"Certainly." - Qa'Meret said and walked alongside Arstan and as Kyo caught-up with them. - "I was not really aware that my songs were that popular, Sur mentioned something, but it is still surprising."

"Mister Sur must be very wise and smart since he looks like he knows all about the books he has..." - Kyo mentioned as he was re-accomodating his hood - "... some of those books were scary spell books though."

"Lord Arstan has a point Kyo, you don't need to feel intimidated by books, specially those on specialized hands like Sur's." - he said smiling at the boy, he then faced Lord Arslan and took the piece of paper in one of his pockets. "Sur gave me the name of the book written in this paper." - Qa'Meret gave the paper to the Khajiit, who read it.

Ashnii drew a steel dagger and stabbed another of the Tenebris Emergere in the shoulder. The creature let out a bloodcurdling scream and smacked her away. Ashnii growled and kicked it in the chest.

The khajiit turned only to find another of the eyeless creatures facing her, his sword raised. Fore a moment, it seemed like Ashnii's story was at its end, until a blade pierced the tenebris emergere's chest. The creature fell at John and Ashnii's feet.

--------------------------------------

A man emerged behind Lord Arstan. .

"The Ra'kaath wishes to speak with you." He whispered in the lords ear.

"Well, no wonder there were never many copies in existence then." - Qa'Meret said - "I do hope it made for a good reading, if you like those topics."
