Moréna: Session Four


The Umbaran: The main character, played by Lena and I. He is currently trying to get into the town hall of a destroyed elven village. He wields a zweihander called Moréna and just lost a short sword called Mairon.

Lona Ered: A mysterious dark force, that seems to take the form of a gigantic male spider. 

The Umbaran went into the building before him, into a great hall. Shadow webs clung to the everything, and the crystal began to flare up in a dying gasp. The Umbaran ignored the flaring up of the crystal. There were many web pods, hanging from the ceiling. The Umbaran cut open one of the pods, and out fell a male elf. He woke up and upbraided The Umbaran. He and the others were trying to become Lona Ered! The elf attacked The Umbaran, who cut him down with a sneer. There was a scuttering sound above him, and a familiar giant bulk hung above him. It was Lona Ered. A lone figure appeared before Lona Ered. The Umbaran pulled out the dying crystal and held it up. The elf before him was unfazed. Webs wrapped up The Umbaran, who could not reach Moréna (and who had thrown Mairon previously). 

Lona Ered dragged away The Umbaran into an adjoining room. The elf came in and, calling The Umbaran "Boros", grabbed the crystals from The Umbaran, cut him loose, and held it up against Lona Ered, who cowered into a corner. The Umbaran taunted Lona Ered, until an elf came running up to him and took  Moréna away from him. The world before him completely changed. Instead of someone holding a crystal with light, it was a ghost, shrouded in darkness. Instead of Lona Ered, it was an elf, with a shrinking aura of light. The Umbaran picked up Moréna and everything became as it was before. He dropped the sword and checked his pocket. The crystals were still in his pocket. Hands burning, he grabbed the crystals and shoved them at the shadowy figure, who screamed. Moréna began to float and pointed at The Umbaran, who held up one of the stones toward it. Moréna's blade split from its hilt and broke in half. The shadowy figure fell apart and the elf who radiated light died.

The Umbaran left the building, but the further he got away from Moréna the weaker he got, until he could barely move. Going back to Moréna The Umbaran became stronger. He picked up the hilt, and the dark webs and the corpse of the Umbaran reappeared. He wrapped up the hilt, but the webs didn't go away. The Umbaran walked back outside, stones in his pocket. He put down the hilt and a darkness appeared in the east. Picking up the hilt again, The Umbaran began his long walk.
