A croquet game nearby was broken up as moderators ran out of the path of a seemingly stray fireball that scorched a crater into the center of their game, scattering wickets everywhere.
In a final all or nothing gambit, Dr8593 fired a last time, and miraculously hit Lowriderbo40s glider. But his moment of victory was lost as a crowd of shouting mods broke into the camp closely followed by a flaming glider. Dr8593 and Lowriderbo40 barely had time to jump away before the glider smashed into their gaming table, plowing on for another ten yards before stopping in a pile of fiery debris.

~~~

Zezima performed a forward roll immediately upon hitting the ground, softening the impact. The bush he had landed on crunched beneath him, prickly branches clawing at his back in protest. Still his head took a severe blow, and instead of rolling smoothly onto his feet again he performed a lopsided stagger and soon found himself lying on the ground, staring up at the sky.
His glider continued on, flames fluttering as it coasted into the mod camp. Once again it seemed luck had saved him. The straps on the glider had not been mangled by the fire and he had easily disconnected himself from the device before it hit the ground.
He lifted a hand tentatively to his head and quickly retracted it again at the sudden burst of pain in his skull. A face appeared above him, framed by the bright morning sky.
Sir Guiven:What the hell happened to him?
Zezima sat up. Waves of dizziness surged through his skull. Waves of something else tried to surge up his throat, but he held them back. He had to get out of here.
Gimbojim:He fell from the glider.
As expected the mod insignia preceded their dialogue.
Sir Guiven bent down and stuck a hand in front of Zezima's face.
Sir Guiven:How many fingers?

Instead of answering, Zezima grabbed the mods hand and used it to pull himself to his feet. He reeled as the world spun about him and another mod stepped up behind him to support his weight as he fell backwards. Zezima pushed himself upright again though and tried to work his way out of the circle of white cloth, but the mods constricted about him. He had to get out of here before...
Mandy12:Its Zezima!
Sir Guiven:!
Perfectworld:Holy ****!
Rivendell:Someone report this to Rand.
...before that. Whispers raced through the crowd. He tried to break free again but strong hands clamped down on his shoulders.
Rivendell:Help me hold him.
Zezima:Let me -
His throat strained but no sound came out. He closed his mouth and tried again but it was as though there was a barrier in his throat that words couldnt pass.
Sir Guiven:You have the right to remain silent.
Mandy12:You muted him?
Perfectworld:Lol. Right to remain silent, thats good.
Zezima felt anger rising within him.
Mandy12:Lol.
Three mods were restraining him now but most of their grips were weak from a life of picnics and relaxation. And Zezima was coming back to his senses.
A breathless mod came sprinting up to the party and reported that Zezima was to be taken to Entran** temple immediately for questioning. Laughter echoed from several mouths as more mods grasped the importance of this capture.
Fremen22:Looks like weve ended the war.
Ended the war? No, his capture wouldnt end this war. Voldemort would take his place and continue, but it would definitely be a blow to the elitist side. He wanted to shout at these moderators, swear at them, but none of his efforts could get a word past his lips. Then a thought struck him.
Glancing up the sky he saw that it was glider-free. Perhaps they had thought him killed in the crash, or assumed he was as good as dead on the mod island, but still they had tried to kill him. Some of his own elitists. Could the same thing have happened to Voldemort?

Could his army be turning upon itself?
Texan85 flashed into his head, telling him that his empire was crumbling around him, and he realized he had to get to Voldemort as soon as possible.
Perfectworld:Help me support him.
And, as his bodies weight was shifting between hands he let his whole body sag. Not expecting this, mod hands fumbled and tried to catch hold of him, but he twisted his body as it dropped, and slipped between the grasping fingers. Once on the ground, it was easy to deliver a roundhouse kick to one of the white robed legs beside him, a mod body he thought, hoped, it might be Sir Guiven fell into another, knocking both to the ground. Zezima got his feet under him and ran, doubled over, into another mods midsection. The mod grunted, tried to grab a hold of Zezima as he fell backwards, didnt, and landed heavily on his rear. Zezima was up now, a small clearing around him, mods backing away.
Four of them suddenly attempted to charge him. One went down with a swift kick in the stomach that cracked two of his ribs, another received a sharp jab in the head that spun him half-way round before he fell, the last two retreated.
Zezima took a breath and eyed the mods. There must have been at least twenty of them, but none charged. Too many to take on by himself, anyway. What were they waiting for?
And then he saw. A regiment of perhaps fifty moderators was coming up from the temple, only visible as a flurry of white activity on the southern horizon. Zezima turned and ran north to where the sea dashed itself upon the land in arcing sprays. Some of the mods ran after him, almost caught up to him, but he was filled with adrenaline now and his legs carried him swiftly over Entran** verdant landscape, out over its seaweed-littered beaches and into the roaring ocean.
Shouts sounded harmlessly from behind as he splashed into the frigid waters.

40 – Revelations

"Wow. Its 40 chapters long!"
-Qazwsx3740

Texan85 maneuvered through Ardougnes labyrinth of passageways with an easy stride that Cheezit92 found he had a hard time keeping up with. Reaching the front doors, he shoved them open and strode past the spear walls and timber defenses that decorated Ardougnes courtyard. Some of Cheezit92s troops still lingered here, but Cheezit92 hunched himself over and tried to look inconspicuous and got through the courtyard without drawing too much attention.
Cheezit92:Where are we going?
Texan85:Somewhere important.
Upon exiting the courtyard Texan85 took a sharp turn, following an orthogonal path northwards and stopping shortly thereafter in front of a pub. Unlike other pubs this one did not bear a plaque above its door bearing its name. The door itself looked like it had caught some kind of disease, rust coated its hinges with orange boils while a light green mold ate at its edges.
Texan85 didnt seem to notice these things, however, and pushed the door open bellowing -
Texan85:Two beers please!
- as the doors hinges screeched like a dying cat.
He sauntered to a nearby table and sat down.
Texan85:Have a seat.
He gestured to a nearby stool and Cheezit92 pulled it to the table.
Cheezit92 :( Cens)This is your important place?
The whole room was dark and dingy and smelled of stale things.
Texan85:Yeah, do you like it?
Cheezit92:Not really
He glanced nervously at a dark figure he had just spotted against one of the walls, a sinister looking man in flowing black robes. Texan85 noticed what he was looking at.
Texan85 :D ont mind Lucien.
Cheezit92:Why not?
Aside from Lucien the bar was empty, it seemed logical to conclude he was a spy.
Texan85:He just stands around there.
Texan85:Has been for the past ten years actually,
Texan85 :D ont think he can do anything else.
Cheezit92 :O
The bartender shuffled over to their table with two dusty mugs and clanked them onto the table.

Texan85 muttered a thanks.
Texan85:Too bad they dont serve anything but beer here.
Texan85:I could really go for a Gnomish cocktail.
Cheezit92:So why are we here?
Texan85:Ah yes, that.
Cheezit92:Yeah
Texan85:Lets see, where should I start
Texan85:Well, I mentioned earlier that this is an important place.
Texan85 :O r was an important place I should say.
Texan85:Many a war decision was made here over a jug of beer
Texan85:In Dorito72s time. It was his favorite place.
Cheezit92 :D orito72?
Texan85:You havent heard of Dorito72?
Cheezit92:No
Texan85:Leader of the First Rebellion
Cheezit92:First Rebellion?
Texan85:By Guthix, has no one taught you your history?!
Cheezit92:I didnt know there was history
Texan85:My god!
Cheezit92:Ive only been on Runescape a month
Texan85 :O h yes, I forgot.
Texan85:Well I guess someone has to fill you in
Texan85 swivelled towards the bar counter.
Texan85:Bartender, another round!
Bartender:Aye aye!
He swiveled back to Cheezit92.
Texan85:We might be here a while.
Cheezit92 :O k
Texan85:So you know nothing about Runescape history?
Cheezit92:Absolutely nothing
Texan85:Hmmmgive me a second then.
Cheezit92 sat back in his stool as Texan85 pondered, almost fell off his stool when he discovered stools have no backs, and barely recovered, throwing a nervous glance at Lucien in the process. The man didnt even seem to notice anything was going on, he strode about, apparently absorbed in deep thoughts. Suddenly Texan85 started talking again in his deep voice.
Texan85 :O k, well to start off, the past century of Runescape
Texan85:Has been somewhat redundant.
Cheezit92:What is redundant?
Texan85:Repeating oneself unnecessarily is redundant.
Cheezit92:Repeating oneself is redundant?
Texan85:Yes, repeating oneself is redundant.
Cheezit92:So redundant is repeating oneself
Texan85:Yes, to repeat oneself is redundant.
Cheezit92:Is this redundant?
Texan85:Yes, this is redundant.

Cheezit92:Redundant
Texan85:Yes, redundant.
Cheezit92:Redundant, ok
Texan85 :O k, redundant.
Cheezit92:I still dont get what redundant is
Texan85:Nevermind.
Texan85:Many years ago there was a time
Texan85:When gods had a stronger grip on Runescapians.
Cheezit92 :O k
Texan85:In that time there was a log out button that you could access
Texan85:As easily as your inventory or statistics pages.
Texan85:The gods controlled this log out button, however.
Cheezit92:Uh huh
Texan85 leaned in towards Cheezit92, and Cheezit92 unconsciously did the same.
Texan85:They could decide when you existed.
Texan85:When they wanted you to exist, they logged you in.
Texan85:And when they didn't they logged you out.
Cheezit92 :O k.
Texan85:You would be in a state of non-existence
Texan85:Until they decided to log you in again.
Cheezit92:Uh huh.
Texan85:Now, some fortunate people were more lucky than others
Texan85:And were logged in more often.
Texan85:This is what created the elitists.
Texan85:Zezima was one of these.
Texan85:He must have been logged in almost continuously
Texan85:For he got his stats up faster than anyone else.
Texan85:Lilyuffie was another, a king of fighting.
Texan85:He hasn't been seen for over a century though.
Cheezit92:Yeah...
Texan85:Some say it was multiple gods, one for each person.
Texan85:And some gods were more interested in their people than others.
Texan85:You decide whichever way you want to.
Cheezit92 :O k
Texan85:It must be hard for you to grasp.
Texan85:It took me a while just to gather this shallow understanding
Texan85 :O f our deep past.
Cheezit92:Uh huh...
Texan85:Anyway, we were eventually able to become independent.
Texan85 :D ecide when we were logged in.
Cheezit92:Ye...
Texan85:And maybe 300 years ago
Texan85:The log in button disappeared entirely.
Texan85:And now we never log out anymore.
Cheezit92:Zzzzz
Texan85:Cheezit92!
Cheezit92:Zzzzsnrk! Huh?

Texan85 :D id you hear any of what I said?
Cheezit92:Uh...
Cheezit92:Um this pub is important?
Texan85 :O h well, nvm.
Texan85:I'll get to the more patent stuff.
Texan85:What you should probably know
Texan85:Is that your rebellion is not the first.
Cheezit92:Really?
Texan85:It is the third actually.
Cheezit92:And the other two didn't succeed?
Texan85:We would not be talking if they had.
Cheezit92 :O
Texan85:Earlier today, I was at Varrock Library.
Texan85:They have some neat books on Runescape there.
Texan85:And I came upon a book of proph(Cens)ecies.
Cheezit92:And...
Texan85 :P roph(Cens)ecies about the noob rebellion.
Texan85:They are quite specific about how the noob's will win.
Cheezit92:Am I in them?
Texan85:Well, that's what I wanted to see.
Cheezit92:I was
Texan85:I checked, and Dorito72's situation was not even hinted at.
Cheezit92:But mine was
Texan85:Nor was Pringle82's, the leader of the second rebellion.
Cheezit92:But mine was
Texan85:I looked for hints that you would win,
Cheezit92:And I will, right?
Texan85:And I found some quite conclusive evidence
Cheezit92:Yes...
Texan85:That this rebellion is not the last.
Cheezit92:?
Cheezit92:But I'm winning this war
Texan85:Are you sure about that?
Cheezit92 :D o you have these proph(cens)ecies with you?
Texan85:Indeed I do.
Cheezit92:Let me see them
And Texan85 pulled a huge leather-bound tome out of his pack and slammed it onto the table.

41 – Base4

The shadow of the dome of pleasure
Floated midway on the waves;
Where was heard the mingled measure
From the fountain and the caves.
It was a miracle of rare device,
A sunny pleasure-dome with caves of ice!
-Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Gizmo B Free:So, our primary destination?
Mr. Happy:?
Gizmo B Free:Where do you want to go first?
Mr. Happy:That flat building
Sinusoidal:You wouldn't want to go there.
Artificial sunlight bathed the land around them in a welcoming glow, dappling both trees and verdant fields with freckles of light. Everything looked enormous from this perspective. It reminded Mr. Happy of being inside a Colosseum, or fight pits, the balconies around the circular land would be where the watchers would sit.
Wolf0122:How about the mage building?
They all seemed eager to get him into that building but he didn't really feel like it. For now he only wanted to be out in the open.
(c)Mr. Happy:How about the lake?
Sinusoidal:Kk.
Wolf0122:There are some magnificent ice caves nearby too.
(c)Mr. Happy:The lake
Wolf0122:If you insist.
From what he had seen from above, the lake looked like a perfect place for drowning Cheezit92, the waters odd and thick. But drowning would be too cliche. Yes, he should check the lake out to see if there was a more interesting way to kill someone in it, maybe something involving cutting trees down with a fletching knife...
As the trio walked through the gardens Mr. Happy decided to ask them something he had wanted to ask for a while.
(c)Mr. Happy:So which side are you on?
Sinusoidal:?
Mr. Happy:Zezima or Cheezit92?
Gizmo B Free :O , we're revolt lover's.
Wolf0122:Gotta love that title.
(c)Mr. Happy:?
Wolf0122:You haven't noticed it's a palindrome?
Mr. Happy :P alindrome?
Gizmo B Free:Yeah, revolt lover
Gizmo B Free:It spells the same thing if you read it backwards or forwards.
(c)Mr. Happy :O
Wolf0122:Yeah, it took me a while to see that too.

Mr. Happy:And what's the other side called?
Sinusoidal:Zezimanites.
(c)Mr. Happy :O
Wolf0122:Yea, I think they're mad at us
Wolf0122:Because our name is so much cooler.
Wolf0122:I mean, theirs could have a double meaning as Zezima knights....
Wolf0122:But that's just egregious.
Wolf0122:And ours is a palindrome.
(c)Mr. Happy:Uh, sure
What was odd about the terrain they were wandering through was the lack of wind, not feeling the heat of the sun on one's back. The whole landscape seemed frozen apart from the people who moved frantically about it. (c)Mr. Happy decided to break the stillness.
(c)Mr. Happy :D o you have gnomeball here?
Sinusoidal:Gnomeball?
Mr. Happy:Yeah
Gizmo B Free:Nope.
(c)Mr. Happy :O , this would be a perfect place to play that
Wolf0122:What do you do?
Mr. Happy:Carry around a ball and beat up gnomes
Sinusoidal :O h! It's like rugby
Sinusoidal:...except for the gnomes.
(c)Mr. Happy:Uh, sure
Gizmo B Free:Never liked rugby anyway.
(c)Mr. Happy:What do you do in your free time?
Sinusoidal:Sit around and ponder stuff.
Gizmo B Free :D o Sudoku puzzles.
Wolf0122:Experiment with magic.
(c)Mr. Happy:Sudoku?
Gizmo B Free:Nevermind.
Gizmo B Free:It would take a while to explain.
Now the lake was visible as a dark dip in the land before them and Mr. Happy could see that its banks were lined with benches. The nerds beside him stopped suddenly.
Sinusoidal:Is that who I think it is?
They were looking at one of the occupied benches. From the back it seemed that a guy with long hair was sitting in it.
Gizmo B Free:Yes, I think that who you think that is is correct.
Wolf0122 :O h my god! Oh my god!
Mr. Happy:?
Wolf0122 whispered to Mr. Happy -
Wolf0122:It's Base4.
Wolf0122 :O nly the hottest girl in Xanadu.
Sinusoidal :O nly the only girl in Xanadu.
(c)Mr. Happy:She looks like a man.
Wolf0122:What should I do?
Gizmo B Free:Just go up to her, this is your chance.
Wolf0122:I don't know if I can.
