Legends of Hawaiki 2: Where the Wild Things Are

[Mirth]

Tatiki forces himself back onto his long legs. We need to get to the others Brother. I'm too tired myself to protect us both here should anything come for the plant. but before we do.... Tatiki takes the flaming blade and pushes it near the sap pool. He can only hope ha can get the liquid boiled to a point where he can use it to treat thier wounds.

"Father?" Puna Tani says as he regains consciousness. Holding his head, the shaman focuses on the words being spoken to him and slowly pulls himself to a standing position, "Mmm, Tatiki, of course. We should return to the others. I do not wish to be a burden to you. I may have some healing left myself..."

OOC: I'm not sure how many spells I used in this battle, however

Tatiki & Puna Tani

The shaft of flame is not designed for such things and much of the sap is wasted, burnt black beyond use. Nonetheless some of the sap about the edges congeals and turns opaque indicating its readiness for use in minor healing. Tatiki estimates that there ought to be enough for both Puna Tani and himself and a little more to spare. Enough to reduce any bruising and lingering damage at least - the aching of their bodies will require a good nights rest before it fully subsides.

You note that the day has dragged on during your contest with the vines and also that the forested hill continues up someway with little obvious variation. It might get you back to the inland path eventually but for now its probably safer to head back to the others before dark and make your decisions on route in the morning...

(ooc Puna Tani still has spells to cast)

Wai, Lani, Tu-Ru
A couple of the hakaturi have taken an interest in Tu-Ru approaching him and make comical faces and lewd gestures to the O'Punga, a childish game that nonetheless keeps them amused.

Lani and Wai look about to see the Pot-bellied sprite again sipping from his bowl.

"We have two other friends who will probably be rejoining us soon. Will they be able to enter this area you protect?" Wai aks of the sprite who's eyes widen and brow furrows.

"two others - hmmm. Before dark yes, Tamanui helps" he says pointing up at the sun which sits but a few degrees above the hill tops, alreading beginning to invoke the evenings shadows

"maybe tonight - too dark - hmmm maybe they sleep before they reach here. Where they go?"

Tatiki douses the blade and after applying the sap starts to feel better. Ah. the Island always provides. Lets get back, the bird seems to have left the area and we should too. That sais he will get up and start his way back to the others. He will help Puna Tani walk if needed.

 

[Mirth]

Puna Tani smiles at his friend and puts his hand on Tatiki's shoulder when help is offered, "Let us find the others. I am sure the nanakia has not left, as you seem to think, but it will find me when it needs me." The shaman glances at the foliage surrounding them before heading back to the campsite.

Puna Tani and Tatiki made there weary way back down into the gorge that led to the Cut. Their muscles continue to ache as they lend each other mutual support along their trek down the slope.

Emerging from the trees the undergrowth spreads out before them like the sea, moved by a gentle breeze, the the cliffside entrance of the Cut like a reef.
The sun was dropping down behind the twin peaks of 'ikurangi and Tu'irangi casting red gold strands into the darkening sky. Evening was coming, and blazing Tamanui was bidding good night to his ancestress Papafenua, the earth below.

(Spot check please)

 

[Argent Silvermage]

Tatiki spot check: 12+4=16

 

[Mirth]

Spot check 15 +1 = 16

Wai heads to the edge of the protected area and begins to scan the undergrowth.

"Lani, your eyes are sharper than mine... do you see them? We need to get them back here before the sun sets."

Wai glances toward the sky, then turns a worried face toward his friend. "And that doesn't leave them much time. The sun has nearly set."

 

[Tonguez]

Coming down into the undergrowth Puna Tani and Tatiki both feel a strange tingling about them though as yet they can see nothing distinct, perhaps it is merely the evenings cold.

(ooc ps so who's still around and playing?)

(OOC: I am, was just waiting for either you, Lani, or Tu-Ru to respond before I made another post.)
