When the gods arrived... (Gothic Lovecraftian MLP roleplay)

[waaaaaaah]

Book Keeper recognized many of the works on the cleric's desk, but she wasn't sure about the fragments. She went to take a closer look at them.

[thexcrimsonxghostie]

Then a thought had occurred to Lumine. "Then those thoughts were not your own, but of another." he deduced, "Somepony or something could have been trying to implant those thoughts in your mind through thought transference or even by some power of inception."

[annosrules]

"Or you could tell me the exact time that you started trespassing in my head, and I can shed some more light on the situation by having some actual context to go off of," Blaze shouts in frustration.

[waaaaaaah]

Book Keeper glanced back at the pair, then returned her gaze to the fragments. She picked one up, and started to decipher it.

(well ghostie? wat it say?)

[thexcrimsonxghostie]

"Last night... possibly 'round midnight." Lumine replied. He then spied Book Keeper as she were moving pieces of the tablet about. "No! I've spent sleepless nights trying to arrange those!" Upon reaching the desk he'd noticed that she'd managed to arrange them perfectly. As of which a message them flooded Lumine's with images of Celestia and Luna's futile final stand against the Eldritch Abominations before showing an image of a dark crypt with two sarcophagi.

"That is not dead which can eternal lie, and with strange aeons even death may die." he said.

[annosrules]

"Well at midnight I was surveying the area," Blaze replies earnestly.

[thexcrimsonxghostie]

"The Princesses!" Lumine cried, "They are not dead, but asleep! They're waiting to be awakened!"

[waaaaaaah]

"How do you know this?" Book Keeper asked the cleric. "Did you have a vision about it just now?"

[thexcrimsonxghostie]

Lumine regained his composure as he'd felt rather shaken by the sudden flash of the images before his mind's eye. His eyes filled with tears and head full of anguish he took a deep breath. "I'd seen their graves... the graves of the Princesses!" he declared, "They must be resting in a deathly sleep being in a state of suspended animation for I recall as the bards have sung that they were taken from the battle after succumbing to fatal blows by the Eldritch invaders. Somepony must have put them in that state to keep them alive."

[annosrules]

"And you expect us to be able to raise the near-dead?"

[thexcrimsonxghostie]

"If they are on the breadth of death, then they are still living. Are they not?" Lumine retorted.

[annosrules]

"Yet do you believe that we can revive them?"

[thexcrimsonxghostie]

"If it can aid us in our fight, then perhaps it's worth it."

[annosrules]

"Our fight? I don't know about you, but the last time I checked the Elder Gods left the princesses six feet under, and you're wanting to fight that?"

[waaaaaaah]

"It's worth checking out, at least,"  Book Keeper interjected. "If they really ARE alive, then this could be our only chance to restore Equestria to its former self."

[thexcrimsonxghostie]

"Yes, but none seem to know where the Princesses are being kept." Lumine said. "Save for those who were her most trusted and that would have to be one of the Six."

[annosrules]

"And just who are these fabled six of whom you speak?" Blaze asks with a hint of skepticism.

[waaaaaaah]

"Could you be referring to the bearers of the Elements of Harmony?" Book Keeper asked the cleric.

[thexcrimsonxghostie]

"Yes," Lumine affirmed, "The keepers would be the only ones who know where the princesses are kept. The last any have seen of them was in the heat of battle... from which they'd vanished like a will o wisp."

[Julien999]

Outside, something or somepony crashed on a tree... Yes, we can heard that crash.
