[QUOTE="JharyOConnah, post: 7883903, member: 7016431"] Selythin flew toward the river in the sky. The water got closer and the mountain that had been below receded into the clouds. It was a boat. Selythin felt as if he were descending toward the small craft even as he tried to maintain his altitude. He sniffed. The air here smelled of smoke. He could see a lone figure lying down flat inside the little rowboat. A black sword was also lying there, next to the person. It looked like the figure was waving and Prince Selythin could hear laughter wafting through the smokey air. * * * Jim nodded and shrugged at Eovin as she commanded the horses to follow the ball of light into the woods. The younger son of the caravan leader kept shouting periodically. [B]"Pop! Bo! Where are you?"[/B] (Minor confusion. It really doesn't change anything...but! We switched which brother was with you accidently. It says the incorrect name in my posts too. Oops! 😬 Just to be clear. Laynard was on your cart first, but was dragged away by two monsters after he fell. Eovin and the horses rescued Jim by killing the third chaos creature. You never saw Bo or his cart after the wagons were separated. Whew. 🤓) After a minute of repeated yelling from Jim, the ball of light stopped abruptly. It bounced gently in place. Eovin swore she heard someone, over the rain and storm, shush them. [B]"Sssshhhh!"[/B] Jim instinctively clasped his hands over his mouth. Then the ball of light flew off quickly, curving through the trees in a semi-circular direction. (Go ahead and give me another Perception check along with your actions.) * * * [B]"Brutta nottata..."[/B] The old man muttered as he followed Ralph into the barn, still holding the glowing blade aloft. He immediately went to a stack of wet haystacks and almost collapsed. Ralph could see a trail of blood leading from the door in a line to the fella clutching at his side underneath his large cloak. He groaned then said: [B]"Found you just in the nick of time."[/B] He gritted his teeth and pulled the cloak aside. The wound looked bad. [B]"Maybe not... Damnit. I'm getting too vecchio for this merda. We've gotta do this quick.
