Message: <blockquote data-quote="Plane Sailing" data-source="post: 323407" data-attributes="member: 114">Meanwhile, Arilyn has got fed up with waiting in the village, and even more fed up with Dala’s constant jibes about her book-learning. She and Zeph decide to take a walk out into the woods in order to find the others. She figures that with enough warning from Zeph the winds can carry her aloft and out of any harms way. Randomly choosing between the Barrow and the Red Horse, Zeph the smoky elemental flies up above the treeline and gives her a bearing towards the Red Horse.The woods are still astonishingly quiet, and Arilyn mentally rehearses the trigger for the fly spell which she had prepared that morning, ready to escape at a moments notice. As she takes a short break and Zeph comes down to chat with her and regale her with the wonders of the elemental planes, her smoky familiar suddenly registers alarm through their empathic link. Turning quickly around Arilyn espies something tiny floating in the trees a dozen feet behind her… it is about the size of a baby’s fist, and is pale with a dark dot facing her. As she watches it darts away behind a tree and disappears back the way she came. “I wonder what *that* was?” she thinks. Then presses on towards the Red Horse.As luck would have it, and with the additional guidance from Zeph, she is able to make contact with the other three companions. She doesn’t bother mentioning the strange floating thing since there is so much to learn from the experiences of the others.After taking council with one another, they decide that the next step they need to take is to visit the “meeting stones”, the other locale on their little map of the area and the site of the supposed ambush by elves of the village delegation. Perhaps more light will be shed on the mystery there. It will be a couple of hours, so they should be able to get there before the sun sets tonight.</blockquote>
