[QUOTE="Satin Knights, post: 6004961, member: 6666968"] Relic chases off after the barbarian, even though he cannot see where the elf had went. Finding a cliff face with stairs being the only exit from this area other than the water, the old wizard starts up the stairs in search of the brash elf. With three people working, they are able to drag the small boat on shore, across the sand to the bottom of the cliff face. Aradra, noticing the the waterline at high tide seems to engulf the entire beach area, finds the anchor in the stern. Wedging the anchor into the rocks and then giving appropriate slack, ties off the rope enough to the mast that it shortens the length the boat might drift. Daylily sneaks up the stairs, peeks over the top edge to see the ruins of an ancient city. Time and weather have not been kind to this island. The guard tower that stands looking down upon him used to be a lot taller. It is as if a storm giant had simply snapped the building off just below the second floor and flung it into the storm. Looking behind him, staring out to sea is now impossible. From this height up the cliff, the storm provides full obscurement of the outside world. The storm feels like a dome, arched and closer here at the top of the cliff. Occasionally a large stone or part of a tower floats by in the orbital current. They are not so close that one needs to duck, but instinct overrides perception making Daylily duck anyway. Peeking again, stone streets run between the stone buildings. In between each, natures weeds and vines have taken over for centuries, sometimes crawling over the buildings themselves. At the edge of the stone streets, 7 foot posts stand with glass balls at the top. The globes that are not broken, glow with a light that is just noticeable in the morning sun. A guess is that they would provide good illumination at night. To the northwest, the sound of a large stone crashing on stone can be heard. Even those down on the beach hear the surprising noise above the winds, but they are not easily able to discern its direction as Daylily is. [sblock=postions]Daylily at the top of the stairs, concealed under the lip of the cliff, peeking over. Relic, 1/3 of the way up the stairs. Rest, on the beach still.[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
