The two of you plunge into the swirling mists, Grim and Cormick, after some initial relutance, follow behind. The damp is unnatually chilled, it feels like it ought to freeze but doesn't. Visibility is low, you can only see a few yards in front of you through a grey-white world that appears to have had all colour sucked out of it. Ivellious' flaming sword is like a beacon, it is not only the main source of light shinging through the gloam but it even seems to burn the mist away.
The woods are dead quiet. No birdsong, no owls, no rustling of forest animals and no wind to stir the leaves. The only slight sound is your footsteps and the occassional clink of well maintained equipment and that, even though coming from two such woodwise beings as yourself, sounds like a thunderclap. It's like walking in a long sealed lifeless tomb, rather than a verdant forest.
After what seems an eternity, but your conscious mind tells you is only a few minutes, the unnatural silence is broken by sound of something making it's way through the undergrowth towards you from the right.
OOC:
Ivellious:
[sblock]The mist isn't being dispersed or shone through by your flaming sword, the mist is actively moving away from it, even fleeing.
This sounds like lots of forest animals of various types all moving together in a bunch, an obviously unnatural phenomena
[/sblock]
Koirk
[sblock]Initially you think it is a trick of the light, or a few stagnent eddies, but no, the mist looks like it is making a conscious effort to move away from Ivellious's flaming blade.
You've never heard anything quiet like this before, it's not something big, but it is making a lot of noise - too much to be something native to the woods.[/sblock]

Sorry, back on track now
