((I think it is fine for people to add what they feel comfortable adding. As long as it is no longer than one sentance, and adds to the story.

"Why is that?" Zegeras said. "What kind of magic guards the rod?"

"Powerful daedra I summoned to protect the Rod."

they have been imprisoned by the Rod already.

ArotosMarkos · Post by **ArotosMarkos** » Sun Oct 07, 2007 9:34 pm

Zegeras seemed confused. "Imprisoned?"

"I think if you're really going after this staff, you need to know the full story of why it became known as the Staff of Corruption."

With a sigh, "So how many Artifacts will I have to find"? asked Zegeras.

'my dear Zegeras, are you not up to this task?' said the archmage coldly.

ArotosMarkos · Post by **ArotosMarkos** » Tue Oct 09, 2007 9:09 pm

Zegeras returned the look, "It was a simple question, Dunmer filth."
