Okay, so I'm confused. I know Twist did the whole Nature/Magic thing (right?).
But then, weren't Masters allowed to make sort of a 'personal' choice regarding
Nature? Not that I was trying to act neutral towards nature, but I'm into the
whole KILL!NATURE!KILL mentality some Masters seem to enjoy. In any case, I
think this Lord Adept is lazy and, well... um, shouldn't be a Lord Adept.
But I guess that's because Masters is hard up for one, Hell, I'm pretty
sure that's how I got Adept. Anyhow, for those that just like logs of
anything, enjoy. Those that wanna douse this with Off then throw a match...
Fuck off.

You say 'Ah, yes. The Tower is extremely revered by the Arkham University. What I came here for is knowledge to improve the conditions in which mankind lives in these days.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
A granite golem says 'Greetings, wise one.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You say 'To apply the magics that we know to nature's harshness, man will not toil so in the fields, and instead seek greater things to accomplish.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
The day has begun.

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>

Lord Adept says 'What of Nature then?'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv> You say 'And the university will no doubt have more students enrolling and less illiterate among the citizenry'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You say 'What of it? It's ... unpredictable at best.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
The sun rises in the east.

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
The lightning has stopped.

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
Lord Adept says 'How does it affect magic?'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You say 'Time is an element of nature.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You say 'With time, magical weaves dissolve.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You say 'And they must be recast.. wasted energy.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
Lord Adept says 'Does time stop my flight spell?'

You say 'Time stops nothing.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You say 'But it will unravel your spell.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
Lord Adept says 'Then what stops it?'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
Lord Adept says 'What causes it to unravel?'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
*ME* forms a puzzled look on his face.

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You say 'But it doesn't stop it.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You no longer see invisible objects.

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
Lord Adept says 'What brings my feet to the ground?'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You say 'Well, that would be your flight spell expiring... due to the fact that it's dissolved.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
Lord Adept says 'What of Gravity?'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You chuckle politely.

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You say 'I didn't come to the tower to recieve a lesson in elementary schooling'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You say 'Gravity is given, you can expect this.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
Lord Adept says 'It is not elementary Schooling.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
Lord Adept says 'Nature is the bane of magic.... Gravity breaks the spell of flight.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You say 'How is nature the .. bane of magic? And where would we be without gravity? Amongst the stars?'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
Lord Adept says 'Nature is the EXACT oppostite of Magic.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
Lord Adept says 'Do the Teachers at Arkham not know that the Tower is at war with Nature?'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
The sun slowly disappears in the west.

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
What's bothering you?

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You say 'I'm sorry, I stay in the city often, and this is my first visit to the Tower.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
The night has begun.

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You say 'I'm not too knowledgable of the politics.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You say 'At war you say? You seek to destroy nature?'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
Lord Adept says 'If nature is gone.. magic can flourish.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You say 'Why? Without nature... will you magically produce your own food? Will you 'weave' a shirt from the cotton with a spell?'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
Lord Adept says 'It will not have the boundaries that nature places upon it.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You say 'Right, one of those boundries is Time.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You say 'All in all destroying nature isn't the best solution..'

You say 'To subdue it,'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
Lord Adept says 'Perhaps...'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
Lord Adept says 'but I need you to do something for me.'

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv>
You say 'That's another thing.'
