News & Advertisements

- Newcomer-owned Funtom Toys & Sweets is the latest in a string bakeries 'attacked' by a sudden rise in temperature in its ovens during peak baking times. Police suspect someone with distanced heat-manipulating ability, having apparently ruled up mass malfunction or technopathy after their investigations, but have named no suspects. While some of the same AGI and SERO businesses have been hit, this is the first time a newcomer business has been affected.

Skeptics in the Siren's Port blogosphere still suspect these attacks are intentional sabotage against AGI and possibly even SERO bakeries, or even a nefarious plan by some newcomer health nut to deprive the city of cookies and sweets. According to the conspiracy theorists, the change in attack pattern means nothing, and does not rule out previous suspicion.

Funtom named the total 'casualty' count of the oven-overheating as the day's batch of cookies, several trays of cupcakes, though noted that at the same time a batch of scones came out 'about the same.'

Ninth Mercy - Accidental Video

[returnsmagic]

[ There is no video - just blurry darkness and a terrible roar, a roar meant to shatter nerves, to declare war, to bellow pain.

In this instance, it was the latter.

There is a blurring dizzying video of golden scales and claws and snarling and roaring. Then there's nothing but fire. The fireball was continuous for quite some time - perhaps a minute or two. The NV drops to the concrete and turns in a tight spin. It even bounce at the instance of two heavy booms of somethings massive hitting the street below.

When it finally slows down, it shows Aurican's massive claws, creating large scratch marks into the pavement. There's a heavy rumbling, growling noise -

and in between the space between Aurican's legs, you just might see a pair of red eyes and just briefly, a large form before it merges into shadow and moves away. Another roar, this time a challenge, and Aurican suddenly turns and runs, apparently in pursuit. His long tail lashes out and hits the NV, causing it to spin once more.

When it finally slows, it shows the dragon further ahead from behind with a terrible wound on his back, bleeding profusely. He rears up, wings flaring up, and let's out another cone of fire. His tail hits the NV one final time and the feed ends. ]
