Ioriana looks in surprise.
Slaves? What good are slaves right now?
Seeing Avamedes going to interfere she just shakes her head.
Seriously? Disciples? Now? Are you going to preach to them? Forget that, we don't have the time. Let's move on!

Iorianas mouth forms a big "Oh" as the dragon falls and gets decapitated.
Yeah only in this case it's the Abyss, not hell. So that might be a lot more chaotic and ... different. I wonder if there are any plans besides "kill them all" and "despoil the land". Library sounds good. Just what we need now. Bookworms. Let's go. Neither my arrows nor my sword cares about whether they strike humans or demons, nor do i.
Ioriana scowls.
Marble labyrinth? Tower of Estrod? Mhhhhh. You're right though, we're not free just yet. And getting some more and better equipment might be a good idea.
As Ioriana steps out, she takes in the new scene... Now this is a surprise and something new...
City in flames, demons everywhere and the big defender in a tangle. Doesn't look to good for the city and the crusaders. So what's next for us? I would not count on having immunity to all the demons. That seems unlikely for their kind, even though we probably count as their allies at the moment. She looks to Goresk.
Ioriana changes quickly, throwing her tunic and chain shirt over, fastening the clamps on her weapon belt, bow and quiver on her back. Right. Follow me. She steps out through the collapsed wall...
Ioriana musters Avamedes really critically. Are you so desperate to serve a master that you carve their symbols into your own flesh? As long as there aren't too many unpleasant winds coming out of you, i don't really care. At least you keep it to yourself, unlike...
A trunk? Oh that's good, they might keep our stuff there. Let's go have a look. I had a chain shirt and my bow. Ioriana wrinkles her nose, but says nothing more in regards to the aroma wafting around. She then goes to retrieve and don her gear.
After Goreks suggestion Ioriana looks at Kelva, considering. I think she's a bit nuts. Yah well, why not. Might have it's uses. She goes over and unshackles Kelva. You better behave and do something constructive. Or destructive in the right way. There you go. Ewww. You urgently need a bath with soap. Lots of soap.
Ah that was easy. Such fools. She smiles to Goresk. Thank you very much, my dear. I guess i will give you some company on the way out here. Perhaps we should bring some more company? Let's see....who looks useful. Who might be patriotic enough to fight for Azlant? Any volunteers?
Hand me that veil, will you?
Ioriana takes the veil from Goresk and inspects it a bit closer. Mh as i though, this is magical and...
Suddenly she has a dagger and thieves tools in her hands, giving back the veil to Goresk.
In the desert, i rode a horse with no name... Ioriana starts to laugh as she hears Goresk, looking out for the guards rushing in to beat him down. Hahaha nice, yeah of course, hahaha, just open those locks and free us all, then we're gonna ride with you...hahaha
Good idea ;)
Ah fine lady? Ioriana looks like she's trying to remember who could that be, but also why she wasn't called first. Whoever that might be? Probably got their reasons to call out that one first, or like at all.
Suddenly the prancing woman stops in her cage, watching her fellow inmates with an open mouth in disbelief. Finaly she steps closer to the prison bars.
They come? Who is they? And when? Besides the obvious that you are clearly mad little birdie and could really, really use a bath and some soap, the rest here seems to think this is some sort of tea afternoon going over into a wine and dine. Let's hope whoever they are, they come in time and they come to get us out of here. Mendev needs me, the future needs me and the people need me. Else all will be lost due to these visionless crusaders and single-minded demons and their cultists. Praise Azlant! We need to find a way out of here! I'm not subject to those fake laws. They have no jurisdiction over me!
Rrrraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrghh!
She turns around without really waiting for an answer and begins to circle the cell, mumbling to herself.
Sent you a request. I think it's a good idea. 1 bard is good, 3 are interesting^^
Ioriana is the outcome of a generations long magic-aided rebreeding program with the goal of recreating the original Azlanti bloodline, which is considerably stronger than the average modern human.
The Azlanti did not "fall", only their empire was shattered because the gods betrayed them and all their enemies conspired against them at once, all together.
Avamedes will be taught differently ;)
Nurgal, Groetus and Zura would be apropriate azlanti themed demons, because they were worshipped in old azlant, so i could switch to one of those.
Everybody who helps reinstate the empire and aknowldges azlanti - and therefore Iorianas supremacy - will have a welcome and special place in her heart and future empire. Some may only advance to the status of lower citizens or second grade citizens, some not even there, but thus is the natural order.
