Void Rift (rp) - Intermission

"Safety precautions. Anne is the 'bite first-bark later' if you know what I mean."

 

"More ifs..."

"You sure that's not you?" Laze retorts, uneasy.

 

"Unfortunately."

 

"What are you implying? That I dive into danger without thinking?"

 

"There are large complications with that." I say, creating a golem and molding it to look like me.
"If a rebellion were to break out in my kingdom or some other crisis that needs my strict attention, I would have a bad time once waking up."

The copy walks towards the flower.

 

"You followed her here, straight into the home of those who hate you."

"If a rebellion were to break out within three days, then we wouldn't want to be lead by you."

"Well... we may as well ask."

 

"Alright. Eklir said he'll update with Akli'il, I'll see how that went, then I'll check up on Aral'hrah. Does anyone want to come with?"
I offer.

 

The others furiously shake their head, and Gau hesitates.
"...can you keep him together on your own?"

 

"I told you before I didn't kill your queen!" I exclaim
"And I wasn't told that dragons would be here. I was simply looking for The Prophet the rumors have been talking about."

 

"It is better to flow with the river, rather than to force it to your will." Aquira says, picking up Kiin and hugging her for a short while, before carrying her back to shore.

 

"Ihra, or Ragnyon?" Laze asks, uncaring about your denial.

 

"Eklir? Yeah, he'll be fine, if not a little moody, around me."

 

Kiin still refuses to let go.

Gau nods.
"Good luck. Tell Akli'il I'm fine."

 

"I will."
I say, starting to walk off towards Akli'il territory.

 

Nothing interferes en route, but Akli'il seems to be waiting for you at the border.
"Where's Gau, and where's my wife?"

 

"Gau's back in Aral'hrah territory, and based on Gau not saying anything about your wife, she's okay. Eklir caught you up?"
I ask, approaching.

 

"Kiin." Aquira says sternly.

 

"Mostly. Said you were planning to run us through some gauntlet trap hall."

"No." She whines.

 

"That's a very vague version of what I was planning, but yes."
I stop walking once I'm close enough.

 

"Then you better count us the hell out!" He growls.
