Viridian Plague--Act I: A Glimmer of Darkness

[Bront]

[SBLOCK=Trayah and Rystil] "I can remember, but carved into wood wouldn't hurt." Whinoah says.[/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

[SBLOCK=Trayah and Whinoah]"Very well."

*The Lacerta elder sends one of the other Lacerta to get a length of wood, as he gives directions through the jungle to both sites. Then, when the long wooden staff arrives, he carves some Yharzu symbols that Whinoah can't understand gently into the wood.*

"There you go. I shall pray to the spirits for your success."

"We all will," Sirra adds solemnly.[/SBLOCK]

 

[unleashed]

Trayah, Lacerta Shaman

Whinoah & Rystil
[SBLOCK]

"Very well then. Can you remember it if I tell you, or will you need the directions carved into a length of wood?"

“As Whinoah says, our memories should suffice...but a physical reminder wouldn’t hurt,” Trayah remarks.[/SBLOCK]

Trayah, Lacerta Shaman

Whinoah & Rystil
[SBLOCK]*Bowing to the assembled elders Trayah reaches for the staff before replying.*

“Yes, may the spirits favour us in this endeavour...”[/SBLOCK]

 

[Bront]

[SBLOCK=Trayah and Rystil] "Thank you. You have been most kind, and I hope my services can help you in this endevor."

"Let us be off then," Whinoah says, after examining the map quickly. "Time seems to be something we have little of."

[sblock=RA]How are the winds here, and how easy are swingable vines to access?[/sblock][/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

[SBLOCK=Trayah and Whinoah]*The gathered elders bow slightly.*

[SBLOCK=Whinoah Only]*The hot and humid jungle floor is sheltered for the most part from the wind's blow by the thick canopy overhead, even in areas where the underbrush is cleared for the village, like here.*

*Without much underbrush, the vines are not readily accessible in the village, but in the jungle proper, a little bit of climbing amongst the trees can bring a deft jungle-goer to a median level above the underbrush but still several levels below the canopy, where thick vines and interconnected climbable branches are more prevalent.*[/SBLOCK]

(OOC: Note that the staff carvings are not a map, but actually written directions in Yharzu )[/SBLOCK]

[SBLOCK=Trayah and Rystil]Whinoah returns the slight bow and then looks to Trayah, who now has the directions.[/SBLOCK]

 

[unleashed]

Trayah, Lacerta Shaman

Whinoah & Rystil
[SBLOCK]“Yes, let us begin our quest Whinoah...I only wish we knew where the Cat of Many Faces was. We should head for the Fallen Star first I think,” Trayah remarks, as he begins to lead the way.[/SBLOCK]

 

[Bront]

[SBLOCK=Trayah and Rystil]Whinoah nods and begins to follow Trayah.[/SBLOCK]

 

[Keia]

M'ress, Female Feldori Animist/Gladiator

[SBLOCK=M'ress and Slagg]*M'ress agreed with the Tralg watching over her . . . she actually was grateful that he would do that.*
[SBLOCK=Feldori]

"Uh...cousin, the monster guy is following us in--cousin, didn't you say that you tell me we should go in without him so he doesn't scare everyone which might make him angry?"

"He had a change of heart, after learning that we are on my homeworld," M'ress explained. "It will be up to us to make certain that he doesn't scare people or get angry . . . mostly me. Slagg may try and pick you up to ride on his shoulders . . . don't worry, it's his way of protecting people he likes."[/SBLOCK] *M'ress replied to the little girl.*

[sblock=Tralg] "Slagg, the little Feldori girl was just concerned about you, isn't that nice?" Ma'ress explained to Slagg. "When we get over there, they may never have seen a Tralg before so you might scare them a bit. I'll try to make everything okay, but don't go attacking them unless they hurt one of us first, okay?" [/sblock] [/SBLOCK]
