0031(01)031: Of JADEKIN OF THE MAGEBORN: SETTLING DOWN IN JADEKINERIA

 

Lady AstillaArendum walked away into the forest, seeming to be rather vague in which direction she was going. Some other humans went with her, non-clones, who seemed to be looking after her. Jadekin was not pleased for Empress JadekinKia had been doing foolish cloning experiments again. Empress JadekinKia was probably amused by placing the befuddled Lady AstillaArendum into a useless role that sounded far grander and more important than it was. Yet Empress JadekinKia was not actually evil and would make sure that Lady AstillaArendum, along with those like her, would be well cared for.

 

Jadekin materialized some blankets, knives, tinderboxes, lamps, litrejons of lamp oil, axes, vialpacks of concentrated healing serum and bags of bright long burning torches for the local people. This was a gift to them, not a tribute to Empress JadekinKia, and the locals knew it. The cute adorable looking wozzles were tougher than they looked. The orange-brown humans were a rather passive, well disciplined folk. Then there were the others like the squat, human like gnomes and the tall, pointy eared, rather elegant true elves.

 

They were able to travel, in three seconds, from the big teleport cylinder nearby to far off EvaLaketown. EvaLaketown was a large fortified settlement that was part industry, part fishing, part commercial and parts many other thing. It had a population of just over a million people including the fairly fast breeding, short lived kinds like the gnomes and wozzles. It had a large, well protected, harbor. It was not the only Laketown and traderships traveled along the outer shoreline of the Great Ring Lake, taking both cargo and passengers. Fisherships went further out into the waters huge lake and the fisherboats staid closer to the shore.

 

The people, from two versions of Tamriel, were amazed to first encounter electric four wheel drive vehicles, boats, ships, small flying-boats and other electric motor driven machines. They were taken back by bolt-action hunting rifles, by a small steam-train moving along a railway with its very clean, efficient, burning type of fuel and much more. Yet there were horses and other riding animals, that also pulled vehicles, quasimagical devices including swords and some kinds of carefully regulated magics in use and many other things very familiar to the newcomers.

 

What was really new to the newcomers, was the peacefulness, the lack of danger, the general bountifulness of resources and the fine generosity of the locals. There were some soldiers yes, but nowhere as many as would be in any settlement that the newcomers had experienced. There was much fresh food at fair prices. There were no undead, no demons, no monstrous barbarians.

 

Yet Jadekin did pick up some underlying tension in the people of the settlement.

 

Jadekin, and a few others, settled into the one big house that had been empty for decades but well cared for. Like the town it was fortified. It was a reminder to Jadekin that that realm had suffered from troubles in the past. She gifted some vialpacks of concentrated healing serum to the locals, that is to their hospital. Then she found herself gifted with fittings, furniture and decorations for the big three level house, one level being a big underground one with the official basement being below that. It also had a large attic big enough to be considered a small level.

 

Some of the group moved into other houses in EvaLaketown, wanting more independence from the start of their stay in. Jadekin began to meditate, to spend time with her daughter along with others, to do research, to try to remember what had happened to her, to carry out a series of projects both to do with local needs and her search for the WhirlaKeys but also to take healing sleeps. For her mind was more damaged by what had happened to her than she had earlier realized. Time passed relatively faster in that realm, linked with her TransGlobe, than it did 'outside' so she had more time to do what she needed to do.

0032(01)032: Of JADEKIN OF THE MAGEBORN: HOBLINS AND CHANCING FATE

 

Jadekin, that is another aspect of her, was back in the Undercity where Emperor Septum VII still sat on the throne because he had not been assassinated. She made her way quietly through the Undercity from the small room where the three dark figures had tried to interrogate her, they were long gone, and amongst quite small hoblins, generally harmless goblin like creatures who worked casually for the Empire. The hoblins were defensive aggressive, that is fighting only to defend themselves against unprovoked attacks. They were naked except for odd loin-wraps and webbings of item dotted belts, including pouches. They carried tools, some of which could be used as weapons against attackers. hoblins tried to keep the numbers of big rats, spikecrabs and other such threats down, getting paid small bounties for dead things. They were generally friendly with the goblins but mostly so with the goblins who had a working treaty with the Empire.

 

Jadekin materialized some blankets, knives in scabbards, bags of torches, rolls of bandages, coils of rope and concentrated healing serum. She gave them to hoblin healers and leaders, did not attempt to buy anything. The hoblins then gave her a good deal of information. Some of it turned out to be very useful. hoblins were mostly taken as unimportant and were ignored by many other peoples; hence they gathered much information. Oddly enough goblins saw hoblins as valuable for they did work for the bigger kind of goblinfolk that the goblins did not really want to do.

 

After she gathered information from groups of hoblins, she made her way to a part of the Imperial Undercity where lived a wide mixture of people in big archway and column support hallways and chambers. There were antechambers and alcoves that were places for homes, shops and much else. No Imperials dwelt there, except for some Exiles, but Cyrodilins did being the common people of Cyrodiil. Once all humans of Cyrodiil had been Imperials but the immigration of many Redguards, Nords and other human peoples, along with interbreeding, had led to the creation of the Cyrodilin peoples.

 

There she had a clay cup of cooled mead at an tavern. Taverns were like inns except they did not offer sleeping arrangements for people. They offered live music and other entertainments including tavern games such as bowling pins, darts and floor wrestling. A bard was using a lute, of good but not great talent, but Jadekin did enjoy the gentle background melody.

 

Jadekin=There is the WhirlaKey that ended up with Emperor Septum VII of this Alternate. There is the one in the strange Dwemer mechanism. Question is, what are they in the sense of being Baseline, Mediate or Primary. Considering the power emanating from it, I consider the one given over to the Emperor to be at least a Mediate. It felt very powerful compared to the one that I held briefly and seemed brighter somehow. I consider that the WhirlaKey, in the Dwemer quasimagical mechanism, is the Primary one.

 

=-=From now on you are constantly gaining 0.2 fategamecredit per second, two fategame-points per 100 seconds, two spinlings per 1,000 seconds and one wishling every 10,000 seconds. You have gained bonuses of 2,000 fategamecredit, 20 fategame-points, two spinlings, 40 hulknoids and 10 simulicants. Right now, if you choose to do so, you can take a Chance of Fate. It has some risk to it.

 

Jadekin=As in a 'chance to change fate favorably'?

 

=-=Yes!

 

Jadekin=Then let it be done! I got a feeling something has to change for me to get some real progress with the Quest.

 

There was a soft shimmering effect, that only she saw, and then Baurus the Blade appeared.

0033(01)033: Of JADEKIN OF THE MAGEBORN: MEETING BAURUS THE BLADE

 

Baurus entered the tavern through its main entrance. He was dressed like a typical Undercity worker but he moved like a well trained elite warrior despite his clumsy efforts to do otherwise. Jadekin had seen him briefly when she had helped to defend the Emperor. He had fought skillfully, and bravely, against the Mythic Dawn traitors. Now what was he up to?

 

Jadekin drew Baurus to herself, in a subtle fashion, and Baurus came over to her believing that he had seen her first because she was looking away from him at the time. He sat on the stool next to her and frowned softly at her. “Where have you been? The Emperor sent out people looking for you and none could do so. They went to your family business only to find the shop empty and heavily sealed up. We still have not managed to get into parts of it.”

 

Jadekin sighed. “I was in two Alternate Tamriels where history has gone differently.”

 

They went to a more excluded spot in the tavern where it was much harder for others to overhear them and was easier for Jadekin to shield others out. Then she explained many of her experiences in briefer terms. At times he asked questions and she would answer them but would not always give him the answers he wanted; often this was because she did not have the answers to give but not always.

 

When she was done, Baurus was amazed. He studied her with a deeply thoughtful expression before he spoke. “The Emperor is not the Emperor. Alisari was sure of it from the moment of the moment when there was a flash of brilliance and then the Emperor was seemingly saved from death. At first others would not believe her but the False Emperor is unable to wear the Amulet of Kings and finds many excuses not to try to after his failure to do so. What is puzzling is that Alisari states that the False Emperor is not evil as such and believes himself to be truly Emperor Uriel Septum VII. Nor has he attempted to do anything evil, far from it. He wants to push a series of reforms to improve the lives of the lower classes and newer rising middle classes. He wants a new, major investigation to be launched into growing corruption and inefficiency in the Imperial Government, especially the Imperial Public Service.”

 

Baurus went on. “He has been pushing Archmage Traven and Arcane University Chancellor Rhodati to carry out a special project with the WhirlaKey that you carried through the sewer tunnels, that you ended up giving to the False Emperor. It is a most unusual project and it is suspected, by those who should know, that it has something to do with both Dwemer and other exotic quasimagical technologies. It's all above my head.”

 

Jadekin wondered how she would even get close to the WhirlaKey. “Baurus, do you know where the WhirlaKey is?”

 

“Even if I did, I could not tell you but I do not know!” Baurus shrugged. “It could be in the Arcane University but the university is huge and whispered to have secret underground areas that are heavily guarded by Mageguardsmen, battlemages, magic, armored doors and lots of thick walls along with a whole lot of nasty cunning tricks.”

 

In recent years the Mages Guild had created its own guard unit known as the MageGuard. Mages Guild VIPs had also begun to have battlemage bodyguards also. Such was done because of the growing threat from various enemies be they necromancers, daedric or yet others. The Archmage was guarded by mages, battlemages and Mageguardsmen as was the Chancellor of the Arcane University.

 

Jadekin wondered if she should focus on trying to get to that WhirlaKey or try to find more of the basic kinds, one of which she had already claimed for the FateLords.

0034(01)034: Of JADEKIN OF THE MAGEBORN: WITH BAURUS AND A BOUGHT HOUSE

 

Jadekin climbed nakedly out of the large bed, leaving a naked Baurus sleeping beneath a sheet and a thin blanket. It had been a pleasurable night in which they had done more talking than anything else. She slipped into some underpants and a singlet before going to the small kitchen. Converting fategamecredit into gold finger-ingots had allowed her to buy the small, sturdy Harborside cottage complete with a small basement and smaller attic. It was of basic but sturdy design and efficient layout.

 

By the time Baurus, wearing trousers and a shirt, joined her in the kitchen, she had brewed a small teapot of cofii and was pouring it into two mugs. She smiled at him. Baurus still seemed surprised that she had found him attractive but there was a basic honesty about him that she liked.

 

Baurus smiled back, sat down at the table. “You just bought this house and everything in it, just like that when there are long waiting lists for all kinds of housing in the Overcity.”

 

Jadekin nodded. “Mageborn, remember! We have had to become excellent survivalists over the many centuries.”

 

“Why?” He seemed puzzled. “I have not heard much about mageborn.”

 

“I would be surprised if you had. For now all I will say is that we made ancient, powerful enemies who continue to seek revenge against us. There are also other reasons.” Jadekin changed subjects. “I want you to report that I met you and report all that we have spoken of. Who would you report to?”

 

“Jauffre himself has come from Weynon Priory just south of Chorral. It would have to be important for him to come so far and he utilized a Waygate to do so.” Baurus frowned softly. “I did not know that they were used anymore.”

 

Waygates, like Wayshrines, were said to be creations of the Eight Divines, that is the Aedra that had become Divines. Waygates could be used to send people or goods or other lifeforms very quickly from one place to another, even if the Waygates were a very long distance apart. Why they had stopped being used so commonly was something that those who knew were not willing to share with others.

 

Jadekin nodded. “When the need is great enough.” Jadekin sighed. “A series of darkly stupid acts by corrupted priests, and priestesses, caused the Divines to shut down the Waygates. If they are functioning again it can only mean there is a very good reason for it.”

 

Baurus shook his head in wonder. “I will report to Jauffre himself. Why don't you come with me?”

 

Jadekin answered after a noticeable pause. “I will meet the two of you here.” She gave him a time and then went on. “There are things I must do before then.”

 

Baurus soon departed with all of his goods. Jadekin had not told Baurus that the house was meant to be able to be bought by members of her family-clan in a hurry, if they had to do so. She walked down the basic wooden step-ladder into the typical looking middle class basement with its storage areas, its small pantry room, its stack of firewood f@&!ts, some big wooden chests with drawers at the bottom, showing at the front of each.

 

The very well hidden door took her into a survival equipment and supplies half filled chamber that was also a variety of specialty facilities. The place was concealed by quasimagical, magical and other exotic means along with physical ones. It could be a shelter for up to ten adult people, for over a year.

0035(01)035: Of JADEKIN OF THE MAGEBORN: MEETING JADELEGS (AGAIN)

 

The other Jadekin was sitting on a big old bed. She had quasimagical legs of various metals. She called herself Jadelegs and somehow the name had stuck. Jadekin shivered upon seeing Jadelegs and then many suppressed memories, information, came flooding back.

 

Jadelegs sighed. “I hope all of this waiting down here was worth it.”

 

Jadekin remembered clearly now that she had deliberately allowed to have her mind put under many bindings by magefolk inside her family, and family-clan, who were imposters. They had replaced her family members, along with others, had taken over as much as the Majestico Exotic Goods Emporium as they could, failing to get into some important areas.

 

She was not the Jadekin born of that Alternate Tamriel, Jadelegs was. They were once again linked, as they had become before. That is when they had taken a dangerous risk so as to deal with a very dangerous enemy.

 

Jadekin sat down on the same big bed. “I found my, our, daughter PearlLisa. One of our other aspects is with her in Jadekinaria, as the Empress JadekinKia wishes the TransDomain to be called.”

 

Jadelegs nodded. “I dreamlinked with Jadekin in EvaLaketown. We exchanged much information. We had a picnic with others, including the other children that were rescued. Sanchy is a damphir, amazing! Also indicative of powerful changes taking place in the Alternate Tamriel with too many Emperors. Did you manage to learn anything while your mind was bound?”

 

Jadekin frowned softly. “The other Jadekin is doing much meditation, which is assisting me, but really I need to take slowly and carefully if I am to answer that question. I do know that the imposters who infiltrated your family, family-clan, are a dangerous mageborn subfaction who are focused, in their powers, in shapeshifting and some shapechanging. They are not of our mageborn, do not seem to have any link with the Skylands, with our ancient Empire of Empires. I do not think they are downright evil. They could have easily killed me but seemed to have gone to great efforts not only to keep me alive but to soften the side effects of the bindings on my mind. We need to find your family members, the real ones.”

 

Jadelegs snorted. “Our family members; we share now, such things, and we each have three mothers and three fathers.”

 

Yes, the three had met, had melded only to end up melding also with the Empress in the TransDomain Jadekinaria as anchored to the TransGlobeShaiVa. Why had they melded? To deal with not only an enemy but the greater enemy that they had detected behind that enemy, a dangerous manipulator whom they had yet to identify.

 

Jadelegs had lost her legs thanks to that very dangerous manipulator. She had been ambushed by monsters as created and then summoned by a deluded follower. The monsters had perished but not before mauling her legs and killing the follower, who was always going to be betrayed.

 

Jadekin frowned. “One name comes to me that I somehow picked up but it does not seem to make sense. That is Killogic Dagon! Is it the name of a Daedric Prince we have not heard of? Does it have something to do with Mehrunes Dagon?”

 

Jadelegs was obviously thoughtful. “I have never heard the term but none of us have done deep research work on the Daedric Princes so that might easily explain why.”

0036(01)036: Of JADEKIN OF THE MAGEBORN: CLEVER DEVICES AND DUPLICATING THINGS

 

Jadelegs took Jadekin to a workshop-laboratory area where she showed the newcomer a number of devices she had either invented or heavily modified. She smirked mildly as she passed a hand-crossbow to Jadekin that had replaced the bow with two odd metallic wings and much else. “While you have been having so much fun, I have been creating these devices to help us find the WhirlaKeys.”

 

“Fun?” Jadekin snorted. “Right! Is this to detect the WhirlaKeys?”

 

“It can pick up traces but mainly it is to detect a wide range of energies, to help you detect the shapeshifting mageborn, to help you be warned of any magics or other exotic energies nearby. It can even be used to measure the level of radiation.” Jadelegs frowned. “Only problem is that its range is only about nine metres maximum, that is in any real reliable fashion, and it is a little on the heavy and clumsy side. I call it the WhirlaDetector, for want of a better name.”

 

Jadekin put the device to one side and then took up a set of nine quasimagical throw-stars, each a deadly star shaped device that could be hurled through the air. Its ancient name was 'shriken', having come from the ancient home world of their mageborn people. They were reusable and could cause different deadly effects; they could also be recalled to the user unless something blocked this from happening. Then came three throw-blades and one bigger, special, throw-knife.

 

Her quasimagical longsword was replaced with an upgraded one as was her quasimagical bladeshield. Then she got a quasimagical shortsword, a longknife and two knives. Special scabbards went with all, including the bladeshield.

 

The quasimagical amulet, complete with special electrum neck chain, would help protect her in various ways from magical and other attacks, including physical. Yet it would also boost her capacities in other ways as well as having some unique tricks.

 

Jadelegs spoke. “I am working on other projects but they are not ready for you to use in any safe, reliable fashion. A few will never be so.”

 

Jadekin smiled with a sudden idea, her eyes sparkling. “I have an idea! My transduplication abilities have greatly improved, expanded in flexibility and capacity, and I can strengthen them further as a FategamePlayer. We will take all of these devices, including the uncompleted ones, and put them into a damaged lidbox.”

 

=-=You will be best to utilize 1,000 transcredit, 10 fategame-points and one spinling to boost the results of the transduplication. Please be prepared for some odd side results.

 

So it was done and the two stared in wonder at the three brand new, good quality large lidboxes. In each was a good quality, enhanced copy of the original items. In each lidbox were three surprise items of unique nature, making for nine unique items in all. There was a compact, thick leather bound tome on the HISTORY OF THE DAEDRIC INVASION, another such book titled OBSCURE LEGENDS AND STORIES OF TAMRIEL, VOLUME I, and yet a third tome titled THEORIES OF POSSIBLE AND PROBABLE ALTERATE EXISTENCES. They came from one lidbox. In a second lidbox was a large electrum and crystal glass magnifying-glass like device, a device like a two sided hand-mirror but with non-reversed reflections and an odd electrum made handlamp with a strange adjustable lens. In the third lidbox was a large brass ring with thirteen keys, a neck chain with thirteen small metallic figurines and a small lidbox with thirteen metallic dice; in each case one item was golden, three were silvery and nine were copperish. The unique items were very important, both 'sensed' that much. The decision was made that Jadelegs would study the books and Jadekin would use the others.

0037(01)037: Of JADEKIN OF THE MAGEBORN: MEETING THREE BLADES IN A BEDROOM

 

Jadekin had many items, by now, in quasimagical storage as linked to her fategame-bracelets. She had ways of instantly traveling to Jadelegs' chambers, to the TransGlobeShaiVa, to the TransDomain of Jadekinaria and to any place she had spent more than a few minutes in, had come to focus on in a deeper fashion.

 

Jadekin practiced teleporting by vanishing and reappearing in the main bedroom of the Harborside Cottage. She also did this because she 'sensed' Baurus returning to the house and that he was not alone, or in a very happy state of mind. There were Blades in quasimagical armor and with various quasimagical weapons, some being battlemages and one being a battlehealer.

 

She sat on a chair, quietly reading a book on the Imperial City, when the bedroom door swung open and in came two men and a woman. All were armored, armed Blades. Along with Baurus there was Jauffre and a woman of tough looking appearance. Baurus himself was more mature but still tough appearing. Now he was openly a Blade and not of the Order of Talos at the Weynon Priory.

 

Jauffre frowned at Jadekin. “You knew that the Emperor wanted to meet with you as soon as possible and yet you chose to remain here.”

 

Jadekin turned to Jauffre. “I told Baurus of the three Alternate Tamriels that I had experienced, that is this one, the one with too many Emperors and the one with the Great Freezing threatening all life. I told him that going between Alternates is never easy, that it can take time and rest to fully recover from. I can speak to the Emperor of the Alternate Tamriels.”

 

Jauffre closed the bedroom door and his expression softened. “I had to say what I just did because there are imposter Blades in the room next to this one. The imposters seem to have some kind of psychic abilities. They seem to be able to communicate every... quickly with each other. The False Emperor may well know, even now, of the words I spoke just then.”

 

“They are magefolk so that does not surprise me.” Jadekin showed puzzlement on her face. “I had 'sensed' that the False Emperor was not aware of his 'falseness'. I wonder how he explains to himself that he has some kind of telepathic communications with the shapeshifting magefolk.”

 

The woman Blade spoke. “What does that matter? Why are we not just arresting the False Emperor and trying to learn the truth from him?”

 

Jadekin looked to the other woman. “If the False Emperor assumes that he is the real Emperor Uriel Septum VII, then how much of value would he really know? I told Baurus of how my mind has been bound in many ways, how I am been controlled or at least heavily guided and how this is not the Tamriel that I was really born in though it is the same in most ways. I was born in the Tamriel menaced by barbarians coming from the north, by the Great Freezing, by the demonicoes and a whole lot of other threats.”

 

The woman spoke. “I am a battlemage with some work as a mage scholar. There have been those who did much research into the possibility of alternate existences and even how to detect them, to observe them or even to travel to them. One famous tome was called THEORIES OF POSSIBLE AND PROBABLE ALTERNATE EXISTENCES by Magesage VestusSiah Parahi IX. I had access to a copy but it was very old and in poor condition despite many skillful efforts to restore it fully. The Magesage stated that Alternate Existences came from very important moments in history, deciding moments that he also called the major turning points in history. From one such point could flow two, or even more, Alternate Existences.”

0038(01)038: Of JADEKIN OF THE MAGEBORN: MEETING JADELEGS AGAIN AND SURPRISE WEAPONS

 

It was a risk but Jadekin teleported back to be with Jadelegs, but this time she took the three others with her. That is Shakira the battlemage, Jauffre and Baurus.

 

Baurus had gotten into official trouble for not trying to bring Jadekin to the False Emperor but Jauffre would not really punish him; Baurus simply did not have the power to make somebody like Jadekin go anywhere. Also Jauffre was pleased to get to meet with Jadekin first. Now he looked around the hidden place in wonder. Jadekin had refused to tell them where they had teleported to and so the three visitors had no way of telling that they were actually very close to the bedroom where they had teleported from.

 

Jadelegs walked over, slowly and steadily, on her quasimagical legs. She smiled at the newcomers. “These replacements are quite good, really, but not as efficient as the real things though actually tougher and more useful in some ways.”

 

Jauffre shook his head. “I know of at least a couple of hundred military veterans who could well use quasimagical limbs like those, be they arms or legs or both.”

 

Around them stretched a big main chamber. Some well dressed, rather well mannered goblins, hoblins and other such creatures were busy in the distance loading up what looked to be some kind of sleds with boxes, barrels and sacks. The loading was being done efficiently and the loads were well placed and balanced.

 

Baurus shook his head in wonder. “Just what is going on there? Can you trust them?”

 

Jadelegs snorted at Baurus. “Those are civilized goblins, along with hoblins, from the Tamriellan Underworld of this Alternate Existence. Do not mix them up with the wild tribal goblins and tamer, but also wild, hoblins of the Overworld. This chamber is transdimensionally removed from the Empire and the Empire has no official jurisdiction here.”

 

Jauffre looked very curious. “What are those strange devices like crossbows but with out bows and with tubes?”

 

Jadelegs frowned softly. “Oh those, they are a type of weapon but, really, of what interest would they be to you?”

 

Some minutes later Jauffre was holding a flintlock musket-rifle and was carefully aiming it at a circular target against a wall, at some distance. The gunpowder was special off white stuff, efficient burning and almost smokeless with no real stink to it, but was also relatively expensive when compared to black gunpowder.

 

Jauffre fired the weapon but, unused to the recoil of such a weapon, only struck the outer ring, missing the middle ring, the inner ring and the red circle in the center of the target. Jadekin lifted up the musket-rifle she held and fired, striking dead center, bulls eye.

 

Jadelegs shook her head. “We have far more important matters to attend to than a few muskets. We have to deal with a False Emperor but in a way that does not do unfair harm to him. We have to find out what those mageborn shapeshifters are up to. We have to find out if the Imperial Princes were also replaced by fakes.”

 

Jauffre nodded. “Of course but we will take as many of these muskets as we can get.”
