Void Rift (rp) - Intermission

"Eh, it was somewhere in the mountains. I could probably find it."

 

"Yeah, you know where it is. Find the mountains, find the dragons."
She nuzzles you.
"...Come on, love. You know I want to have us wed."

 

"Yeah, yeah. Coming."
He follows Anne through the mountains.
"More climbing."

 

OOC: You got dropped off on a beach, and Anne's still on your shoulder.

East for cliffside and mountains (going through a little bit of forest), or south to the Shifter Village.

 

He starts to walk towards the forest, therefore east.

 

The walk is quiet, the sunshine peeking through the leaves of the trees. Anne seems to have fallen asleep on your shoulder, but other than her quiet snores, the sound of your footsteps is all you can hear.

 

He pets the sleeping Anne.
"How peaceful."
He continues the walk, enjoying nature's beauty.

 

It's definitely a nice contrast from the forest fire of a few days ago.
Shame your pack isn't willing to give the island a chance...

By the time you get through the forest, Anne's still asleep and it's approaching noon. An hour or two more, and the sun will peak.
You can either head straight to the mountains, or visit the cliffside city.

 

(The forest fire wasn't on the island, right? Thought it was in the forest near my home.)
He continues his walk and heads straight for the mountains, trying to not wake Anne on the way.
He starts humming a song.

 

Correct, you're just reflecting.

Humming causes Anne to yawn.
"Are we there yet?" She asks, rubbing her eyes.

 

"Almost there, honey. Just need to get to the top of the mountain."
He continues climbing.
"Shall I wake you when we get there?"

 

"No, because there's no point in climbing one of the mountains... you know, caves. Dragons in those." She says, weary.

 

"No, not at all. And you're just returning to your normal sizes so I don't need to use a relative portal." Praecantatia says.

 

"I'll just climb up and search for the caves since I don't know where exactly they are."
He does exactly what he says.

 

"Oh, okay..."
Ihra downs the potion.

You find an empty cave, four more above it.

 

"Hello?!"
He waits for a response and continues to climb if no one awnsers.

 

"You weren't supposed to have that much..." Praecantatia says, before leaving to get another potion for Artemis, Katie drinking the other half of Stephanie's potion.

Ihra starts rapidly shrinking along with Katie, though unlike Katie, once she reaches Stephanie's size, she doesn't stop.

 

Ihra shrugs, using the residual magic to counteract the potion's excess effects.

The third cave up merits a response.
"Good day. Are you lost?"

 

She manages to stop herself from becoming minuscule, Artemis and I joining the group in their small size shortly after.

 

Ihra brings herself to her normal size, staff again drawing charges from the surrounding area.
