[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 8962740, member: 2012"] Aureus looks out around the oasis as far as her darkvision and light emanating from Cruel Justice allows. The oasis, and the land around it, is awful in ways she hasn't seen since being on her home world. [COLOR=rgb(243, 121, 52)]"Many parts of Maran are cursed like this land. In so many places, undead run rampant and the land is cursed by eons of unchecked death and destruction,"[/COLOR] she sighs shaking her head. [COLOR=rgb(243, 121, 52)]"I had hoped... that I'd seen the last of such blight, but it seems evil festers in many places on this world too."[/COLOR] [COLOR=#F3ECE7]"Death and destruction can be widespread on this world... on any world,"[/COLOR] Qi advises. Qi [COLOR=#F3ECE7]"It is how you face it that matters."[/COLOR] The hutaakan nods. Aureus watches as new growth takes root through the fallen bodies of the destroyed undead creatures. The plants that grow are a pale green and the flowers that sprout are white or yellow in color. Even in the pale light from Cruel Justice, it is easy to see that Caerth's magic makes a noticeable difference. Hopefully, the land will blossom over the coming weeks and some healing, at least, can begin. Quinn nods his approval. [B]"Well done, my friend."[/B] He and the others watch as Caerth shifts into a dire owl and takes to the air. The half-orc druid finds that the land is mainly rocky desert and scattered low hills. In a few places the hills rise into low peaks that are more like foothills than true mountains. As Caerth wings southwest towards the taller hills in the distance, he finds a wide valley that is filled with desert cacti. Beyond that he can see the more substantial hills rising into night sky with jutting crags and what looks like a dead forest spread out among higher peaks and desolate hills. To the west and north are wide vistas of sandy desert with shifting dunes. He feels a sense of dread from the dying forest, even high above the land. He sees and senses a shimmering barrier of what feels like pure evil. Not wanting to get any closer, he wings back to the group while continuing to look for signs of danger. Caerth notes several other oases, but he can't tell if the oases are inhabited. He does see a small ruin right at the outskirts of the valley of cacti. It looks old but might still be intact. Caerth doesn't see anything out in the wilds that would pose a danger. He does see some animals but nothing that seems dangerous. However, he knows there could be creatures hiding the valley of cacti. The possibility of hidden deadly plants. [B]OOC:[/B] New map will be posted on the OOC thread after I have lunch. [B]"I must rest,"[/B] Quinn says matter-of-factly. [COLOR=rgb(243, 121, 52)]"I'm okay to rest here now,"[/COLOR] Aureus nods while stifling a yawn.
