[QUOTE="Jemal, post: 3507817, member: 9026"] The High Mage Offers to teleport some of you to the outside of the Fortress (A permanent Dimensional Anchor now surrounds the outer walls), though he doesn't have the power to take more than a few. Eventually it is decided that the dragons, their riders, and Lochlan/Zephyr will have fly normally (should take a couple hours), while Minathiel and Mary teleport with him to inspect the place while they wait for their companions. At Bastion, Minathiel and Mary arrive in a circle of trees some a thousand feet away from a grand Fortress. It appears to be made wholey of Mithril and Adamantine, reinforced by obvious magical wards, with 30 foot high walls surrounding it 500' out, and another set of 40' high walls at 200'. Everything else is clear plains for about a mile around the fortress, and a moment after they arrive, an arrow thuds into each of the trees nearby. The High Mage holds up his hand to them "NO, do not react. Those were meant to startle any who are not used to it and force them to reveal their nature. Follow my lead, please." With that, the mage walks slowly forward out of the circle, his hands out to show he is unarmed. An arrow thuds the ground right in front of him. He picks it up and then continues walking. Another thuds in front of Mary and another in front of Minathiel. *Assuming you follow his lead* When they pick up the arrows, the Bard and the Archon feel a sense of peace and belonging, and each note the archers at the faroff walls put down their bows. On arriving at the gate, the High Mage calls out in Celestial "Friends of the King and the Land have come to seek shelter. King Sarutobi wishes for you to aid them, that in turn they may aid our entire world." He then sets the arrow in a small pile near the doorway and motions for you to do the same. The gates swing open, magical wards shutting off one by one, until you are permitted entrance. The other travellers take about 2 hours to get to Bastion, following directions. There are no warning shots or attempts to stop THEM, however. The presence of the two Silver dragons allows them all to land safely in the outer courtyard, where Minathiel and Mary are waiting to meet them. *OOC: What do you guys plan on doing for the next 2 days until the Ages are ready to be questioned? Do you have questions about the fortress, or anything you want to say/ask the people here?* [/QUOTE]
