Lani watches what happens after Wai makes his second offering.

The gout of living flame is devestating as i tears into the plant-thing severing vines and gouging deep into the 'trunk'. The hold of the vines on the nanakia loosens substantiably as the plant changes its focus to the burning threat and a stray vine slams down onto Tatiki's shoulder and staggers him backwards!

Wai, Lani, Tu-Ru

Wai's intuition is proved correct as a new eager chittering passes through the crowding hakaturi. It is again the girl who comes forward and like the bird-sprite before her reaches forward to the necklace a huge and bright smile on her face.

Once more you see her reach into the shell and teeth and draw forth the shade of the necklace, bright and gleaming, it is the 'hau', the essence of the thing which is taken living the physical substance behind.

The girl sprite steps back with her new found treasure and soon this too is being passed between the many hands of the Hakaturi most of whom sem to have lost all interest in you three still standing there.

It is some time before the bird-sprite returns an kind of attention to you. It seems pleased with a broad smile and friendly eyes, it points to the sun which you notice is now dropped low in the afternoon sky
"sleep her'" it says "no go Cut to dark" and "we stop"...
 

Lani lets out her breath slowly, quietly, as the creatures are appeased. When the leader speaks again, she looks at Wai. "What's this about not going to the Cut?" She realizes that he can understand them just about as well as she can, but hopes that with his superior knowledge, he will get more out of their cryptic words than she could.
 

Tatiki stands with sweat pouring off his skin Breathing heavily he says, Oh! That may have been a bad thing to do. Puna Tani let us get away from this creature. I don't want to kill it. It wa just hunting for food.
Tiki uses his blade to fend off the plant and backs away.
 

[OOC: Weird... When I posted, I couldn't see Seonaid's or Argent's posts. Message edited to reflect prior posts.]

"Hmm... I think they're suggesting that we set up camp here and don't go into the Cut at night. Which sounds good to me." Wai grins.

"The part about them stopping... I think they're offering to watch over us and stop anything from bothering us while we sleep. I think we've made some new friends."

Thinking about his last comment, a frown suddenly crosses Wai's face. "Speaking of friends... shouldn't our other friends be back by now? I've been distracted by the sprites, but quite a bit of time has passed by now. Just how far ahead were they planning on scouting?"

"You may go Tatiki, but this is a thing I must do," Puna Tani says as he attacks the vines holding the nanakia once again with his knife. "My spirit is tied to this beast, his freedom is mine as well..."

OOC: Sorry all about the lack of posts. I've had a b!tch of a time logging onto the boards this week. Seems like every time I've had time to post, they've been down. Hopefully that situation has resolved itself.
 

Puna Tani's knife hacks into the vines but makes little impact on those that yet hold the Nanakia. The creature itself struggles to escape, its head and upper body now free but its arms, legs and tail still caught.

Fortunately the plant is concentrating its efforts on the staggered Tatiki and does not react directly to your strike


{ooc cool Mirth - yeah the boards have been wonky! and I was getting worried, but good to have you back

A note on time Assuming no KO's (which I'm not promising) or suprises the fight with the Monster plant should end at about the same time as the Hakaturi 'encounter' - so Wai, Lani, Tu-Ru please hang 10 (ie inconsequential RP banter) til this fight is resolved - sorry:)

"Honored Hakaturi, we appreciate your offer. We must discuss it amongst ourselves before we decide," says Wai with a bow.

"Until then, perhaps you could tell me about yourselves?"

Wai look over the crowd of spirits with wonder suffusing his face; never before has he seen anything like this gathering of spirits.
