Telerak found out two days later, when three Burning Masters entered his little apartment in the third sub-basement of the Temple of Fire. Tel was reading, something he rarely had time for. Once he opened the door, he realized that he probably wouldn't have time again very soon. He recognized Burning Master Andir Il'krahs, a tall bald man with two katana strapped to his back, and Burning Master Ves'ahn Garthok, a stout raven-haired warrior covered mostly in a velvet cloak, a heavy claw on each hand.
He didn't recognize the third, a thickly-built man about an inch under Telerak, wearing extremely ornate plate armor made of what appeared to be dwarfwrought anthril. Tel gave the man a questioning look, and Ves'ahn answered his befuddlement. "He is Burning Master Seryntas Gaeran."
Telerak was noticably stunned. "The warrior of the Seventh Prophecy?" Something was wrong. Something was VERY wrong.
Seryntas nodded grimly. "We need your help, Pyral. Do you know the legend of the Tree of Time?"
Telerak nodded, confused. It was supposed to be a fable, a kid's story. A magic tree that grew inverted through the time stream, height bringing forth time instead of time bringing forth height.
Andir spoke up, as if he had heard what Telerak was thinking. "It's real. And there's a problem."
"What's the problem?"
"The last seed has been stolen, and the Order of Earth is horribly close to proclaiming war on us. They think we did it. We need to figure out who really did it and figure it out fast...and you're going to lead the investigation."
(OOC: Okay, guys. Start off in your various rooms. Flambars live in a large communal dormitory, Flame Warriors in smaller rooms with two or three roommates. You'll get your summons soon.)
