Objective
Head to Cairo in search of more information regarding Pagos and Lilith.



Mission
Iko: he loads up his stuff in his hot air balloon, and does the final preparations to make sure that it can hold all five of them, and their gear.

Antonio: ''he walks up to him. ''Need a hand to help?

Iko: Nah, everything's ready, just hop in and we'll be off.

Leonor: Walks up to them both. Sounds good. She analyzes the balloon for a moment then hops in.

Antonio: Alright, if you say so... he grabs his backpack before jumping in.

Alyss: Walks up with a back pack. ok.

Karen: ''She runs up carrying 2 backpacks. ''Whew, got here in time. Sorry, was saying goodbyes. She sees everyone on board the balloon so she hops on as well, when she gets on she starts examining the basket.

Antonio: Awesome, now everyone's here... so basically, we're here to find more information on this Pagos guy and Lilith right?

Alyss: I think so.

Iko: Well we know about Lillith. She's a camper here. It's Pagos we need to be worried about. he clicks his fingers, and the burner lights, quickly taking them up over New York and out to sea.

Antonio: Alright then...

Leonor: So, why Cairo, of all places?

Iko: Well, we've got to start somewhere, right?

Leonor: Shrugs, Yeah, I suppose.

Alyss: What are we going to do when we reach Cairo?

Karen: ''She stands straight. ''Wait... we don't know what we're gonna do? I thought this was all planned out!

Leonor: Well, hopefully, anything having to do with Pagos will be easy to find.

''as time passes, they rotate through shifts keeping watch over the balloon and sleeping. Within a few days, the European coatline is in sight''

Iko: We're close. he navigates them in over the course of the next several hours, until they come upon what is, by his best guesses, Cairo, and sets them down on the top of a skyscraper So, here we are. Where to now?

Karen: She thinks for awhile... Well, I guess we should look for anything weird. Perhaps we should just fly around Cairo? Like surveying the land?

Antonio: That seems like a good idea... and from the looks of things, it'll take a while for us to survey on ground level I guess...

Iko: I'm up for that. he releases the moorings and re-lights the burner, then takes them back up over the city

Alyss: scans the ground below searching for anything out of the ordinary.

Karen: She follows Alyss

Leonor'': Keeps her eyes peeled. ''So, what exactly should I be looking for? I mean, this city is huge.

Iko: I dont know, giant encampments of monsters?

Leonor: Hmmmm. Wish we had a satyr here, that'd make this easier. She starts looking for any signs along the Nile.

''A large hawk flies up to the balloon, and drops a a large piece of paper into it which unrolls and appears to be a poster of some sort. It shows a picture of an Egyptian looking man in medieval clothing and wielding a sword with the text "Come and see the legendary Fadel Hassan! March 14th 2012, outside the city at the great tent!''

Leonor'': Turns around and picks up the paper. She reads it aloud to the rest of the questors, Well, then, she says. ''I suppose we're gonna go to this...and have a talk with Fadel.

Iko: Hm, I suppose it wouldnt hurt to head out that way, since there's not likely to be some kind of encampment in the heart of the city

Leonor: Nods, So where shall we land?

Karen: She squeals with joy YES! We might as well have fun whilst doing the mission! She keeps her eyes peeled for a suitable landing spot Err, theres a stretch of empty land there, I guess we could land there. she thinks then continues AND it's outside of the city, maybe closer to where Fadel is.

Alyss: Whats got you so excited?

Antonio: Maybe its because that we possibly have a lead on the quest...he stares out of the basket and mumbles this is going to be interesting for sure...

Karen: She rolls her eyes Didn't you hear what Leonor said? she doesn't wait for an answer and takes the paper and gives it to Alyss Just read this.

Alyss: I heard her, but whats so interesting about it? Apart from the lead and all.

Karen: She sighs Of course we can have fun along the way... So isn't that superb?

Leonor: she stares at the spot Karen was talking about, Yeah that's a good idea. And when's the last time a hawk delivered you a message, Alyss? I'd say that's pretty interesting.

Antonio: He looks at the paper Yeah... but don't you think its a little bit strange that this hawk sent us a poster to meet this 'Fadel Hassan' guy? And also the timing of it being sent?

Leonor: Wait, You think it's a trap?

Antonio: He shrugs Honestly, I'm not really sure... but well, who knows what possibilities might happen... I'll just be prepared just in case... he sighs and mumbles something about being paranoid

Leonor: Well, even if it's a trap, that at least means we've gotten somewhere.

Karen: So what are we waiting for? Lets land already!

Iko: he takes them out to an empty plot of land near where the circus tent is pitched, and lowers them down, then hops out and stakes down the balloon I think it should fit right in.

Karen: Great!

Alyss:  Cool.

Antonio: '' He opens his mouth as if he wants to say something, but he shakes his head and shrugs. He then mumbles This is going to be very interesting indeed... He looks at the surroundings in awe. ''

Karen: ''Also in awe her jaw drops, she quickly regains her composture and climbs out. ''Wow, not bad.

Leonor: Not bad at all, she stares around with wide eyes. So, where's this great tent?

''They see the large tent located next to a series of smaller prefabricated buildings between which a number of silhouettes seem to be carrying various objects. A large noisy crowd has gathered outside what appears to be the main entrance to the great tent though is diminishing in size quickly as its members make their way between the doors and into the tent itself. As the crowd thins, the sun begins to set on the horizon.''

Leonor: Hmmmm, I'm guessing that's it. Shall we...? She moves towards the entrance.

Karen: Lets. She runs to the entrance.

Leonor'': Enters as well. ''Let's meet this Fadel Hassan. she looks around at the crowd of people, searching for him.

Karen pushes her way through the crowd and she finds herself at the bottom of the stage, she turns back to find Leonor closely following.

Karen: Isn't that him? She briefly points at a guy in a purple flowing cape with a mustache.

Alyss: Most likely, unless you can think of a reason some one else would be wearing that.

Leonor: Hey, you! She walks up to him. Are you Fadel?

Antonio: ''He runs up to Alyss and Karen, wearing a silly-looking hat on his head, gasping heavily for air. ''Thank gods I finally found you guys! So, anything I missed?

Karen: ''She motions for him to hush and nods her head slightly at the man. ''

Antonio: He notices her motions and mumbles, Oh, sorry... he then looks down and stays quiet.

Karen: ''She smiles and notices him wearing a hat. She gives a quizzical look at him.''

Leonor: Clears her throat, Fadel, we have a question for you.....If you are, indeed, Fadel...

The man responds with a confused look, and a stream of arabic.

Antonio: ''He takes off his hat and then mumbles. ''I'll take that as a no...

Leonor: Alright, then....who else? Searches the crowd, which seems to be getting larger.

Alyss: It is possible that he will find us.

''Suddenly, the crowd parts, making way for an exotically dressed man wielding a curved blade who strides confidently towards a large stage at the center of the tent. He mounts the stage, and raises his arms, as the crowd cheers.''

Antonio: ''He looks at the man on stage and remembers the poster. Uh guys, I think that that's he points to the man. ''the Fadel guy...

Karen: Right ''she pushes her way until she she is right in front of Fadel. You can hear some of the crowd swearing and shouting at her. ''

Antonio: Karen, where're you head- ''he notices that Karen is right in front of Fadel. ''Oh gods... Uh... He panically shadow travels to Karen and he accidentally shadow travels with both Karen and Fadel to his previous location.

Leonor: Antonio''! She approaches him quickly.''

Antonio: ''He finally realized that he shadow traveled with Karen and Fadel. ''Oh gods... I'm so sorry! It was an accident and I panicked and, ''he nervously turns to Leonor. ''Help?

Leonor: Turns to the man with the curved blade, Um, Mr....Fadel? We are very sorry for ah, that...

''Fadel turns to look at them, somewhat confused, and then realization dawns in his eyes. He looks at them for a moment, narrows his eyes, and then jumps back onto the stage presumably to continue his performance.''

Leonor: That must be him! She starts to follow him on stage, oblivious to the spectators who are lurking nearby.

Antonio: Total de ja vu... Being too tired to shadow travel again, he tries to catch up to Leonor.

Leonor: Intrudes on stage and prepares to capture Fadel.

Antonio: He hides near the stage, avoiding the crowd's gaze, preparing his sword and hat just in case.

Iko: he grabs leonor Hold on! He's a performer, he's not about to stop mid-show to talk to us.

Antonio: ''Still in his hiding spot, he couldn't hear Iko well. He shows his head to talk to them. ''Look, I don't know what plan you got, but I really hope that doesn't include interogating the guy during the show... Maybe we could do it after he performs? When there'll most likely be less people here...

Leonor: He might escape though, I mean he obviously recognized us somehow.

Antonio: Hold on, ''he gets in his hiding spot. He reappears with his hat and a pair of cheap glasses. ''Maybe not this time...

Alyss: How much do you think that will help?

Antonio: ''He shrugs. Dunno, I was just checking if this 'disguise' actually works... he sighs. ''and now I think it doesn't... oh well, back to the drawing board... he gets back into his hiding spot.

Iko: I would hope he recognizes us, he was the one who sent the message after all.

Alyss: It may have been some one else who just wanted us to think it was him.

Antonio: ''He reappears from his hiding spot and walks over to them. ''Well, let's just hope that the possiblities are on our side... his gaze turns to Fadel who is on the stage, who seems to be performing.
