[QUOTE="Zurai, post: 4213559, member: 52324"] [sblock=Flashback: Journey Day 4]The constant steady rainfall and distant rumbling thunder set the mood for the day in the pre-dawn hours. By the time of the mid-day rest, everyone is tired, irritable, and soaked to the skin - everyone, that is, except for the paralyzed creature captured from the raid on the camp the first night in the forest. It has almost seemed to wilt with every passing hour and by mid-day it hangs limp in its stretcher, not even bothering to lift its eyelids. Its skin had gradually drained of all color until it seemed almost translucent, and its breaths were sparse and ragged. Finally, it gave one final breathy gasp and ceased all movement. Enko's healing spells and herbs were of no avail; the creature was dead. Not sure what else to do, he insisted on burying it. However, even before he was finished digging the grave, Enko noticed a small glowing light dancing around the creature's corpse. A closer inspection revealed it as a sourceless ball of light - it appeared to have no physical or spiritual presence whatsoever. As everyone watched, another light appeared and hovered over the fallen creature, then another and another. After a few moments, all four lights dipped and spun in the air, then darted away into the trees. Attempt to follow them failed - the lights vanished without a trace into the dreary boughs. No one knew what the lights were, where they'd come from, or where they'd gone to. The creature did not seem to be affected by their presence, and the lights ignored the party while they were present. Finally deciding that they needed to get moving, the toothy creature was buried and the party continued their journey.[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
