I figure that if anyone tried arresting Bryn, the crew would step in quickly enough, therefore there shouldn´t be any danger for her or for anything getting to far off track or anything.

I could imagine there being a witness who saw what Bryn did and she might have given her away, but anyways, that´s just how it could have been.

Other than that... guys, why not just play and see how things turn? Too much planning ruins part of the fun. As long as stuff is logical and nobody takes over for another character, things are fine.

@sinbad: about the witness, there was the gang leader who ran away and there is also the little boy.

agreed!

[Sinbad]

Bryn: Yup, that was what I was thinking

[Doubar]

And still the arresting thing for having used magic would cause some problems since with this Kriss would get to know of everything ... and of Caipra's powers ... which is something the wise Lady wanted to hide from her for the time being. Plus without an Omar we would probably have problems going on in the story since this might be a dead end as long as Rumi is not around (after all only Omar would have the right to set Bryn free then). And the letting it flow thing in this point I think doesn't work, too, for the boy and the gang-member aren't being played - which means they have no "free will". So it all comes to lie with Mody and whether he decides to play that plot or not. My thoughts about this.

[Caipra]

you know what, I planned to do something about the witnesses of the scene where Bryn used her magic. Caipra would never let those guys leave like that knowing that they know about Bryn's power.
Concerning Kriss knowing about Caipra's power, well we talked about this before and we were agree that Kriss would discover it during the battle against Rumina, where Caipra would no choice but use her magic to help the crew...
For the rest...I agree with Doubar.
My thoughts....

[Sinbad]

That was not what I meant anyways. I think it depends on how it´s taken up if it is taken up. It could be something like an attempt at arresting where Caipra does not need to reveal anything after all. It doesn´t have to be something that leads us that far astray.

Therefore I would say an attempt is okay, but we can not have this plot to an extent where the crew would actually get into major trouble cause of this because of the things mentioned above. *agrees with Doubar there*

Aw, this sounds like a nice idea.

And guess I agree with everything that has been said. And, well, if there shall be trouble because of having used magic then the most logical point of time would be after Rumi's attack because one: is using magic inevitable then and second: does that mean Electra is back and can play Omar. So even though plotting ahead is not to be favoured, but if one would want to include this, then the attack would be a more sensible reason than Bryn's little outburst.

And now: back to letting things flow.

[19101989]

i was out with my mother and couldn't keep up with what you reached so can any one please let me know what is going on.

and how caipra will know about those guys? Bryn can't remember even their faces.

[Doubar]

alex: Uh, basically we just reached a point where we said that we shouldn't plan on each and every detail, and where we said that no matter what happens - as long as Electra and with her Omar isn't back, we cannot have the crew get into severe trouble with the guards anyway - meaning Ziad honestly arresting Bryn without Rumi being back to rp won't work.
And I merely suggested that if Ziad still wants to play out this arresting plot, he should wait for the time after Rumi has attacked the crew.

As for Caipra: well, this is hers to answer but I'd guess that she, as she obviously enough is a seer of some sort, would know ways to find them.

[19101989]

@doubar: Okay thank you. and the result you reached to about letting it flow is the one , sinbad,Ziad,and I reached to. so seeing all these posts made feel a little confused.

but thank you nevertheless

[Guest]

Okay, you seadogs, lets see. Well, say someone saw Bryn do magic in her "rising up." It was forward to the guards and the news reached Ziad, who is in charge of the western section and has certain powers to submit authority there. Of course, Omar is the sole authority, but he needs Ziad to help him rule his city. It is kind of like Caesar and Rome. Rome was the chief authority, but Caesar was allowed to rule Spain. Ziad could attempt to arrest Bryn but let Bryn go at the last minute, assuming she was no threat. Or Ziad could attempt to arrest Bryn, but Caipra erases their memory.

[19101989]

agaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin let it flow let it flow

@sarah: well Omar is a caliph right ?
caliphs have the power to appoint governors over districts spread on the Islamic empire. and i don't think Basra is all so wide.they have the ability to do without having to consult the caliph.what you meant is the leader of army and he can do as you said.

but wait is Omar really a caliph

[Guest]

I think Omar is, yes.

But people can choose not to report things. Yes, it is kind of like a traitor, but I see Ziad doing this. He has a kind heart. This may cause him to decrease in ranking later on, but we can push that aside for now. The problem is that certainly someone saw Bryn using her powers. And I doubt the would not report it to Ziad.

[19101989]

@sarah : as i said before the witnesses are there. the gang leader who introduced himself as a son of the richest merchant and the little boy. both of them ran away . and you can imagine the rest

oh no how come there is two caliphs in the show? the caliph in Baghdad and the one in Basra. this is a very unbelievable mistake

[Doubar]

@sarah: Please discuss this with Caipra first! If you read the latest posts (on page 6 I assume) you will find that Caipra plans to tend to those who saw Bryn doing magic. Plus, she obviously has already planned with Kriss to have her magical abilities no earlier revealed than when Rumina attacks. So please, before spoiling Caipra's plans on this, talk to her first. If Ziad really tries to arrest Bryn for her outburst this would mean Kriss gets knowledge of it and thus Caipra's and Kriss' plan would be ruined. So talk to them first, would you?

And please consider what I proposed: that you can still try and arrest the sorceresses after the incident with Rumina. This would even have the advantage of bringing Omar in (and since for having Rumina attack the crew Electra has to be back anyway, we would have her play Omar then) and you being able to carry out your duty as you are expected to.

alex: Forgive me for my unbelievingly low knowledge on the Eastern world, but are two Caliphs really impossible?
