City of Emberland - home to the Temple of the 3 :Angharradh

The elves army arrives at the city where FlameSinger was found. They joke abit about the stories the ladies all told them. That is till they get to the decaying remains of a headless dragon and the dark armored foes around it and The Castle with it's Iron Door, Elves as a rule don't use Iron for doors, so that one fits with the girls story. From there they work their way around to the Temple of Angharradh.

From the outside it looks fine. But in the main temple chamber they find the remains of the strange vehicle. Part gnomish part human going by the design. Mix of clockwork and magic from what they can tell once they get it opened up. The fluids that leaked from it were largely the lubricants that keep the machine parts working. Of the magic parts, those where destroyed in the crash, but they can tell this was probably a very nice magi-mechanical wonder owned by a very rich personage. They find the CrystalEmber family crest on what is left of the maintence manuel. The date on it would have been for the late Vaguu's parents. So possible something they came up with but proved impractical in the long run. Just from what the mages and priest can tell of the vehicle it would have been very expensive to purchase and keep running. Still it was a nice design while it lasted.

Emberheart Manor

Emberheart Manor - the gardens are well maintained by spirit wardens and some very nice nature spirits. The Manor itself is in good repair despite standing empty for the past several years. Again because of unseen servants and similar who help maintain and clean the house.

The spirits all know Vaguu has passed on. He came by and let them know. Also told them his God Niece inheritted the place - she is of the ShadowMantle family. So by the time the girls grandmother and parents came to check on the place the Spirits were kind to them. The ShadowMantles are very impressed with the house and the level of magics that have gone in to carring for the place. So not what they were expecting as the Master of the house rarely came there.

Hidden Chapter: From Chapter 7 - what really happened

Queen of the City of Gold

Traces a pattern on the bracelet, with in moments a blue mist flows out of the bracelet and as everyone stares a curvy, beautiful woman forms out of the mist, well from the waist up anyway.

Mei Ling face palms, "Not again."

Pretty much everyone is in agreement with her on that. While not a 'true wierdness magnet' more such things seem to happen to FlameSinger than about anyone else they know of.

The Djinni stretches, showing off an ample bust line and long dark blue purple hair, Her stretch allows her a slow look around, taking in all the lovely women on horse back then she looks down on her new Mistress and freezes (made 3 rolls vs FlameSingers Chr - the Djinni is in love with the beauty of this child, lust with everyone else, was peeved to being summoned initially but one look around, at all the pretty mortals and then the two 'not so immortals' and now she is back in to a good mood.)

Before she can even get out the Binding Ritual the girl speaks, "Oh hello. I am FlameSinger, nice to meet you."

The Djinni smiles, innocent and neive child, precious. "I am Dellona, Djinni of the Bracelet. Why have you summoned me Mistress." there is amusement in her voice.

"Actually I was casting an Identify spell and accidently summoned you." the red haired beauty explains.

The Djinni's smile increases a notch. Not the first time someone unknowingly summoned her. Though it has been a long time since any one of such beauty had done so. Her second Master had been one such, a nice young man who only summoned her to talk to and gain advice. He had no use for wishes. She missed him sometimes.

"Just so young miss." the Djinni purrs.

The girls cocks her head to one side, "What are your limitations ?"

The Djinni freezes, been a long time since anyone had bothered to ask that, "Limits ?"

"Well I can tell from your smoke and hair color your a high end Royal type. I know that your pretty powerful in that reguard, I know the standard limitations to. I read allot you see." the young woman explains.

She nods and grows legs, "Very well, been a while since anyone asked. Nice of you to realize what sort of person your dealing with. I am Sultana of the City of Gold in the Djinni realms, and until you make your final Wish your slave." she bows.

"Don't need another slave. Got one now."

The djinni slowly stands straight, "Pardon."

Points at the lovely dark haired asian woman, who seems to be working out how to put on a mask. "She is spirit bound to me." the girl shrugs.

The Sultana nods in understanding. Magical compulsion. By shifting her perception she notes the compulsion is of Godly level, so not the girls doing. Her perception also identifies all the items the girl has, the Cloak is a surprise, chosen of the Hermit. Interesting, not a being she would willingly cross. Most see him as a passive kind of being, she knows better, she also knows he is a closet pervert, (She thinks most men are closet perverts, all the rest are honest about it).

"Limits ?" the girl ask again.

She bows, "I will not kill for you. I can not ressurect the dead, I don't make undead either, so no trying to make a work around, I will not do anything that will disgrace my people or my society."

"That's it ?" the girl ask.

The Greater Djinni nods, having forgotten the one Most Important limitation and with out mentioning it She is Bound by it, Those are the Rules.

The girl looks at her companions, "Think I should make a wish ?"

Some yes, some no, 1 undecided and Mei Ling who thinks the woman would make a good sex toy.

The girl sighs, "Mei Ling thinks any pretty woman would make a good sex toy." she explains to the Sultana, who smiles in understanding, wishing she thought to include a 'no doing that' now. But she forgot and now the Binding were all in place. She is stuck with the Limits she listed. Kicking herself for forgetting that one.

Shrugging, (and not expecting it to work) "Ok I wish for Infinite wishes at your full ability with out you twisting them or making them work against me in any fashion, for you to be my total and complete willing and loving slave and servant in all ways while in service to me, ie the rest of my life."

There is a strange calm, then her smoke flows around the shocked looking Genie and her mistress. With In the Smoke, powerful ancient magicks flow and pulse and what ever force grants the Djinn their power laughs and says "SO MOTE IT BE! Oh Servant to the Half Goddess FlameSinger, you are her's for the next 2000 years, longer if she wishes for physical youth and or Immortality."

Last free thought, 'oh crap I forgot that one'.

When the smoke clears FlameSinger is shaking her head like there is water in her ears (from the ringing in them do to the volume of that Voice). The Sultana of the City of Gold, 2cd only to the Caliph of all the Djinni people is on her knees bowed and forever bound to FlameSinger, "Command me as you will my most serene and merciful master."

"WHAT ? I CAN'T HEAR ANYTHING!"

Mei Ling looks at the Genie, see's the bonding magics as they start to fade in to the Djins soul and sighs, "Your going to have to fix her hearing before we can get her to do anything beyond yelling about her hearing."

The Djin 'Goddess' sits up and nods, FlameSingers ears 'pop' and sounds return to normal.

"Ow, did not catch all what was said. I heard 'so mote it be' then my hearing went out." she complains.

The Sultana, head resting on her hands, "So sorry oh most Serene one. That was the God of all Djin granting your wish. I am now and till the end of your life your willing and obiediant slave. I will grant you any wish in my power, bestow any thing you desires that is with in my power, my mind and body and soul are yours to command and use as you please."

FlameSinger stares at her, eyes wide, "I really did not think that wish would work. I was just funning with you cause usually its limited to 3 wishes with that one being a big no no."

The Djinni sighs, "That is normally so, but during the binding of my powers I forgot to mention those two limits, and in your humor I am now your loving slave. Use me as you will."

Mei Ling grins, "Other than the magical power levels that is pretty much what I said to her when I appeared."

FlameSinger takes a long deep breath, "Please get up. I really am not comfortable with the bowing stuff like that."

The Sultana stands, but still looks meek, (her skin is midnight blue to).

FlameSinger stares, "Um your in your natural humaniod form ?"

"Yes my Master. Does it displease you ?"

"No, your gorgeous." she states truthfully.

The Sultana smiles, "Thank you my Master."

"Though as you are in the mortal plane, it's probably best if you take on a more human skin tone. Not good to advertise what you are."

The Djinni nods, "You show wisdom young Miss." she reverts to her other form (same but different skin tone).

Hel has her face in the back of her horses head, Only FlameSinger could accidently bind one of the most powerful Djinn in creation to herself like that.

FlameSinger licks her lips and paces around the otherworldly woman, "In simple terms I can understand, HOW did this happen, other than the wish I mean."

The Sultana thinks, "I failed my saving throw, twice."

FlameSinger nods, "Ah that would do it. Badly or just standard fail."

"Standard, badly and I would have trouble forming thoughts that are not all poetic ramblings as I speak." the gorgeous woman states.

"Yeah I would not be able to handle that very long. I am going to have to be Very careful with the Wish word from here on out, aren't I."

The Djinni shrugs, "You can set up a phrase to use when you want me to grant a wish. Other wise, yes."

"Can I wish you free of this last wish ?" the red head inquires.

The purple haired beauty considers, stares at something in between then shakes her head, "No My most benevolent mistress. The God of All Djinn set the effect and seems most amused by it. I am yours till the end of your days."

"Do your original limits still stand."

The Sultana pulls out a slim book, reads it and sighs, "Only not bringing back the dead. Agreement with the Gods keeps us from raising the dead. How ever I can now create undead of any type you wish. I can disgrace my people or society if you so command me."

"If I start to do anything that will cause that please warn me. I do not want to cause you to disgrace your people. I so wish this, just to make it official."

The Djinni smiles widely, "Granted and thank you my Most Gracious Mistress. Though in truth, it's pretty hard to do. Well making out with a doa or effrete would do it. Almost nothing else I can think of will. Well at present."

"Just how powerful are you anyway. I tried looking up that information once, About the noble Djinns but all I could find where the Pasha levels."

"More than an Intermediate God but less than a Greater God in straight power - with the standard limits of my kind."

Mel. "Limits ?"

Hel, "Djinni can't create metals, they fall appart because they are Air Elementals and Chaos magic."

Sultana, "We can create them but they have limited life spans. Your average Djinni can create up to 100 lbs of metal, denser the metal faster is falls apart. They can create good neutrious food and water or wine for up to 12 people. Create up to 16 cubic feet of soft goods or 9 cubic feet of wooden items, these are permanent. We are naturals at illusion magic, can become invisible at will as well as gaseous forms and wind walk also at will. Those are all Standard abilities of any Djinni. I being a more powerful sort have more to work with. I could feed 120 people with ease, Make 1600 cubic feet of soft goods, or 900feet of wood and 1000 lbs worth of metal. I can enchant items or create magical items, though it takes a bit of time. I can change my form in to any I wish. I can do many other things and magically am the equivallent to a Mage of 30th level in power."

"Your way over powered for this group" sighs FlameSinger, "I thought I was over powered, then you come along and I see I have a long way to go."

The Djinni Queen goes and hugs her, Mei Ling hugs her from behind.

Soon after the Grand Djinni came to the party, FlameSinger came to the conclusion that the Djinni was just to powerful and threw the world out of balance - so she quietly requested of the Djinni to go back to the point of her discovering the power of the bracelet and changing it for one of same looks but different power. Say of Bracer of Defense or the like.

Sultana Dellona completely agreed. Though she left a small piece of herself in the childs heart. A little extra touch of love and magic.

She used it to whisper clues and help her with words of wisdom when she needed them. Not that the child ever would know.

The Elven gods are Very aware of her though, and are not opposed to her help with FlameSinger. They count her as an Ally, which is fine with the Sultana, ally's are always good to have.

She is still bound to FlameSinger and any time the child Needs her she will be there. But by their agreement she will remain invisible to the mortal world. Though any help she can give in helping protect their world from the Demon Armies would be most welcome. Part of all this means FlameSinger is no longer Consciously aware of the Djinn or thier agreement. It is just safer that way for all concerned.
