Hey Peacemaker!! Wait a second!!
but it is already too late..the door slams shut and she had just left...Romana runs to the door and opens it to bump into a huge sign saying: DO NOT FOLLOW.
Ok..I got the message
As she closes the door and turn ..another scare cause there is Gorman standing right behind her
Heyy long time no see..and no I am not hungry..thx for asking. I'm kinda busy right now though..so much to do..
Wanders off mumbling something about guardians and keepers
*I wonder whatever happened to the Gootch..could he be ..*
She thinks of the pile of bones laying in peacemakers chambers
*Nahhh..she couldn't have..could she?*
EDIT: as you can see, the Temple is clean now... well, at least a lot cleaner than it used to be... - L. M.

Curses!!!
Just when my plans are starting to work out, that Keeper has to interfere again. The Temple was almost drowned under a flood of insanity and spamming, but he manages to sweep it all away within a matter of minutes. I think I better close that secret portal before the evidence starts pointing to me. Things might get nasty if they found out...
It seems like they made a clone of the Temple to channel all the filth to. I could always try to portal it back, but that won't work as long as the Keeper is here. And I'm afraid I can't get rid of him.
Anyways, that is for later. For now, I will have to try and disrupt the union here. Of course, without letting anyone know what I'm doing. We're still having that peace treaty.
Hmmm... Suspicions have already risen. I just have to fuel them. Let me think... Didn't the Gootch have a piece of broken dagger in one of his bones? He got that some time ago in one of his many duels. The left thigh, if I recall correctly.
*Floats into Peacemakers room silently and unnoticed.*
Perfect. This looks like the left thigh. This piece of metal should be an almost perfect replica of the dagger point. Now I just have to put it in there...
*After a little effort, the piece is firmly inside the bone. Marelt Ekiran quickly leaves, making sure that everything looks just the way it was before. After this, he quickly retreats to the Void and starts reading the comic sections of the "Daily Voidal".*

Like all things, this too shall come to pass
<Our intrepid hero has gathered his things and is preparing to leave the temple grounds. He starts mumbling to himself while looking in all directions>
"This wasn't too bad a deal, was it ol' boy? Heh, free room and board for the last few months and certain other benefits."
<The insufferable voice inside his head comes to the fore>
"So...you're really going to leave without saying anything, are you? I'm shocked...shocked but not surprised." says the voice.
"Don't even start with me. You've cause more n' enough trouble in my life. I was fine until you came along." says our intrepid hero.
"And what about your friends? Are you going to leave them high and dry as well?" says the voice.
"Man, you are way off. I never had friends here. They were tools...tools to idle away the time with. They entertained me...nothing more." says our intrepid hero.
"Ok tough guy...you had no friends...you were a friggin rock...impenetrable were you? Bulls***. Not only are you a liar...you're a coward as well."says the voice.
"You know what jerkwad? You already pulled my punk card with that line. Go learn some new material if you want to get a rise out of me. You know what? Don't even bother. You're screwing my courage to the sticking point with your banter. Keep going. You're only helping me." says our intrepid hero.
<pause>
"What about HER?"says the voice.
"You lose." says our intrepid hero. "I was waiting for you to mention that. She's a woman, right? Well, she can read my mind then. They expect us to do the same. Turnabout's fair play where I come from. And anyway...where on god's green earth does it mean you make a promise to someone when you lay them? Nowhere. So go back from where you came and leave me the hell alone."
<Silence>
"That easy? Harrumph. Idiot...anyway...I'm out of here."
<Our hero prepares to exit the temple when he spies Cat and Romana...their gaggle of worshippers waiting on them hand and foot. He cathes their eyes...nothing is said though. After a few breathless moments, he nods his head and leaves the temple, whistling to the tune of, "I'm on the road again.">

*with no customers at the tower (hint hint) and the shop gone for the time being, Mighty Mage has nothing much to do but walk around. Deciding that his boredom will eventually drive him crazy, Mighty Mage flies over to the temple. Landing Drake near the stables, Mighty Mage dismounts and heads over to the temple doors. He runs for it looks as though it is going to rain.*
Ahhhhh, just made it. So, how goes everyone here? Hmmmm.
*Mighty Mage quickly notices that the only one around is a slightly different looking Saurman sweeping the vast halls.*
So, Saurman...how are things?

A temple, now this should be interesting! Let's see if we can make something fun out of this fortunate encounter!
* He enters and sees Largos von Aichmann, a decadent paladin, praying to Romana, the Goddess of Wine. He approaches. *
BOO !!!! * The paladin shivers and loses his focus *

While sitting outside by one of the fountains, boredom overwhelms me and memories of days long past come flooding back.
Ahhh good old Kitty..when she was still around more often..
and Djive..never thought I'd miss her wisecracks and ugly gnolls..even the perpetuous stick eminating from her behind had a certain charm...giggles at the thought of her sisters face if she knew what Romana was thinking. Sweet Djive..*sigh*.
And Peacemaker..well..what can i say. She was like a hurricane () passing through the temple.
Oh ..how could I forget Gootchie boy. It's just too bad he had to turn into a softy. I kinda miss the excitement even Marelt was kinda fun too in an annoying way.
Really dissapointed at the old man though..He just gave up too easily (frowns) maybe..he..nahhh he couldn't have..
I have to find a way to get some more loyal followers.
subconsciously I run my hand through the water. Suddenly I look at it and feel enlightened.
Ah..how could I let it slip my mind!
A voice from the dark calls..
PATIENCE NESTADIEL
OHH SHADAP!! I yell back while throwing a huge rock towards the sound

A hurricaine, huh. You wanna see a hurricaine???
Having escaped from HC prison with her six little sprites, Peace returns to the Temple. In a premenstrual rampage only aggravated by recent cast changes, she kicks open the great front door which swings open and violently bangs against the Temple wall, rudely announcing her presence by startling the doodoo out of everyone. All conversation ceases as everyone's head bolts up to the direction of the door, spying her there, fully armoured, handgun in hand, and true to her signature.
The song "Bad to the Bone" starts blaring from some unknown source. Without explanation, she takes a few steps in, begins hootin' an' hollerin' and shootin' up the place. Worshippers dive for cover wherever cover is to be dived for. (Luckily and by design, nobody is wounded during this little rampage. It does manage to scare the bejeezus out of everybody though.)
She pulls out a half bottle of whiskey, takes a couple of swigs, and walks up to the nearest dwarf, who is clutching his krispy kream and cowering under the dining table. She gently pulls away the chair he is hiding behind, puts the Colt to his head, cocks it, and politely asks to borrow his axe. The dwarf eagerly obliges her, waving his free hand in surrender as he hands her the axe with the other, whimpering, "Take it!!! Take it!!!".
Peace then stumbles out to the Secret Garden, and slowly swaggers to -- the scene of the crime -- the tree where it all happened.
She sets her whiskey bottle down, carefully places both hands on the axe handle, and with an immense backswing (clearly indicating she has used an axe before) readily wields several very deep, effective blows upon the stump. Within seconds, she has v'd out a large chunk of wood, and before a few minutes pass, she has cleared half its thickness.
Tears begin streaming down Peacmaker's face, flowing into her armour, dampening it, then soaking it. Her movements begin to stiffen...
Within a few more moments, it becomes harder and harder to free the axe from the wood after each swing. Peace's armor begins squeaking with her every movement, turning dark orange around the edges, until there is one stroke into the wood from which she cannot extricate the axe, even using her foot as leverage...
Peace is frozen there, rusted clean solid, axe imbedded in tree, hands clenched on the axe, foot upon the stump...

...before Peacemaker bolts in the Temple...
...Lith comes out of the shadows holding the rock the goddess Romana threw...
- you never quite mastered patience, healer... not that it matters anymore... change is the only costant in all the worlds I've been... sometimes it slows things down, sometimes it speeds them up...
...as Peacemaker tries to chop the tree down, Lith lets a cry out and runs to her...
- I would appreciate if you didn't do that, godling... it hurts me and I may have a use for this tree in the future... of course, since you are one of the Divine Sisters, it is but a request...
...bows and leaves the garden returning to Romana...
- I have to go now nestadiel, but heed my words, keep an eye open for rifts between worlds... you never know what will happen...

*After leaving the Prison in pursuit of Peacemaker, Mighty Mage is obviously out of breath...hey you try running all the way to the temple from there. After looking briefly through the temple and seeing Peace has most definatly been there he walks up to an all to familiar dwarf, oh yeah, that's the one that kicked him in the cahonies. The dwarf seems shaken as if a rampaging bull on crack came charging through here. Well It looks like a psycho bull came through here. Following the trail of wiskey and tears to the garden, Mighty Mage sees Peace screaming and crying at a large tree which obviously got a chance to meet that bull as well. After realizing the ax is stuck, he sees little danger...well, uh...okay he's pretty damn scared the woman is gonna tear him a new one but other than that...*
Heeeey, Peace, how's it going? I uh, see you're cuttin down a tree there. Looks...good. really. You know, I kinda have to take you back and all but if you wanna sit and talk for a bit I guess we can do that. As long as you don't try to kill me or anything. Peace?
*turning from the tree, Peace looks at Mighty Mage with red teary eyes and a face that says what the hell do want or somthing like that...Women are kinda hard to read.*
Seriously, if there's somthing going on that doesn't involve you shooting that gun anymore than I think we need to talk about it. What do you say?

Spots Milena and walks over to her after being calmed down from her inpatience
Hiya sweet! Was about time you came to visit here, but I thought you already had your own worshipping with a lot of followers? Well you're always welcome here
Lith sneaks up from behind them and whispers something.
WHAT??? Oh excuse me Milena I have some urgent bussiness to tend to.
Runs over to the secret garden, where Peacemaker is chopping THE tree.
What the hell do you think you're doing?? Excuse me MightyMage...
Grabs Peacemaker by an ear and leads her to a dark corner in the garden, swatting the pixies who are constantly flutting about. She sets her down on the grass and looking angry. When she sees Peacemaker is crying, she sits down next to her and puts her arms around her.
Silly girl..where have you been? We missed you around here..
Peacemaker remains quiet, sheltering in Romana's embrace

**Sneaks again behind Romana to observe the scene going on in front of her eyes. Liquid movements in crimson velvet, she conceals herself near a tree and watches. Beholds. Observes. Stores.**
**Only a gleam of platinum can tell she's there, behind the tree, by herself. Waiting to meet the other goddess in the temple. The one called Peacemaker.**
**Maybe they shall have some things in common.**
**But first, she hides her fingers in the sleeves of the velvet dress and watches.**

Hmm. Well. A minor plot change is afoot here.
(I WAS going to remain frozen there by the tree like the Tin Man awaiting a certain character to return and lubricate me back into motion, but I see this will simply not be permitted. Far too many friends about I suppose. AHEM.)
As Peace sits quietly in Romana's embrace, with Lady Milena waiting quietly nearby, the faeries flit back to the tree, carefully replacing each chunk of wood she had struck from its trunk, until the tree is whole again (much to the relief of Lith, who is standing nearby with MM). On the newly-healed bark, just in the spot where Peacemaker had tried to chop the tree down, they proceed to carve four little initials inside the shape of a heart:

**She observes the little fairies that fly around and extends an arm so that a few can land on it to adorn it and keep her company. And of course, she doesn't interrupt but would still watch.**
**Then she beholds Lith and a smile plays on her lips. Let them save the woods, the forest. They would need it one day.**
**As if exhausted, she sits under the tree, an apple in her hands. The glossy skin is red and alluring, yet she would merely stare at it and show it to the little fairies. Eat she would, but see if someone else would want to share first.**
