[Adventure] A Call for Lovers (DM: jbear Judge:Lord Sessadore)

[Son of Meepo]

Once the humans are taken care of, Wat stands to join the other at the pool, offering a free hand to Sabynha. When he arrives, he gazes into the pool.

 

[Nemesis Destiny]

Sabynha accepted Wat's hand warmly and approached the pool with the others to try and puzzle out how it worked.

 

[jbear]

As the other members of the group move to the pool to look into it hoping to discover its secrets, they have the sensation that the reflections don't simply reflect back, they stare back anxiously, as though waiting for something.

Rain looks at her reflection and the others with a smile and bows politely.

"We'd like to pass through the palace doors. Would you help us to do that please?"

 

[jbear]

Rains reflection, smiles her terrible smile once more and nods her head. Her reflection's eyes twinkle with anticipation.

 

[Son of Meepo]

With nothing else in mind, Wat decides to wade into the pool, merging with his reflection as he breaks the surface of the water.

 

[jbear]

Wat splashes into the pool disturbing the surface. Once the ripples nothing much has changed except for the slight look of annoyance on the face of Wat's reflection and that Wat is now soaking wet.

 

[Nemesis Destiny]

"Well, this is vexing. The puzzles of the fey are very tricky, indeed." Turning to the brothers, she continues, "Do either of you remember how to open these doors?"

She turned back to stare at her reflection intently while awaiting the answer to her question, idly tracing ripples in the surface of the pool with a finger.

 

[jbear]

Both of the brothers shake their heads at the same time at Sabynha's question. Her reflection fails to trace the same line she is drawing in the water, instead the reflection of her finger is pointing to herself in the reflection.

 

[Nemesis Destiny]

Sabynha was taken aback that her reflection just pointed at her, "What... how is this..."

She stared intently at herself in the pool, leaning in closer.

"What is this feywild trickery? Are you saying that you know how to open the door?"

She felt a little foolish talking to her own reflection in front of the others, but it wouldn't be the first time she'd spoken to herself in a mirror, if she was being honest...
