Re: Vigil
Courtyard- Dipsnig and Nathair "Fair point, fair point. Better to stay in the moment, right?" Nathair chuckles, letting the line of questioning go. "I do like money. I'll probably be dropping by MERC headquarters after this little soiree is over. It'd be nice to have something to do ...
Re: Seaside
Beach "Ah, my apologies," says Harley agreeably, "I didn't mean to pry, sometimes my curiosity gets the better of me." At Raheeda's question, he lifts a hand and raps on the side of his mask, making a quiet bell-like sound. "That's no great secret. It's a punishment, for tr...
Re: Seaside
Beach "You're right there. Gods are fickle, and don't appreciate their own divinity," mutters Harley. Turning away from the water, he eyes Raheeda's strange medallion. There's sure to be a story there. Her last statement elicits a chuckle from him, echoing in his mask as he reaches up to ...
Re: Seaside
Beach The young man is a little nonplussed. How could someone know what the ocean is, but not saltwater? He files that strangeness away for later, instead following her gaze out across the water. "It is dangerous, but no less beautiful for that. I was in love with the ocean once, but she didn'...
Re: Seaside
Beach The man eagerly grabs the water pouch, but heeding the stranger's words he only takes one mouthful before replacing the lid. "Thanks, I really needed that," he says, shakily getting to his feet. He tilts his head. "Do you, well, know what the ocean is?" he asks. He had ass...
Re: Seaside
Beach If the masked man's expression could change, it would likely be a look of exhausted confusion as he stares at the colorful figure for a good couple moments. "I can't drink saltwater," he says finally, "It'll do a thing called killing me." He sits back in the sand with a gr...
Re: Seaside
Beach The battered castaway manages to push himself to his knees, weakly raising both hands in a placating gesture. He tries to speak, but only a croak comes out. Swallowing painfully, he tries again. "Not a zombie," he manages, his worse quiet and hoarse, "Washed up here. Need water...

Re: Vigil
Courtyard- Dipsnig and Nathair "Oh, I''m sure you've got a fair few years left ahead of you," says Nathair pleasantly. They beckon again, and the bubbling drink Dipsnig indicated floats over to hover at a convenient height for grabbing. "Not that years are the same everywhere. Depend...

Re: Skyside Prime
Thunderhead District- Harmacy Lia opens the door and strides in without hesitation. She's never been in any sort of pharmacy before, so she doesn't seem at all surprised by the shady setup. Walking up to the counter, she gives the gnome a winning smile. "Hello madam! We're in need of aspirin, ...

Re: Skyside Prime
Going up from Groundtown Lia gives a small yelp at the sudden sway, and quickly grabs back onto the bar. She's not going to do that again in a hurry. Closing her eyes, she focuses on Sandels' voice to take her mind off their surroundings. "I know a little about the power of names, there are so...

Re: Skyside Prime
Going up from Groundtown Lia keeps a death grip on the bar as the contraption begins its ascent. Every bump or rocking motion makes her shift uncomfortably as she watches the beloved ground grow further and further away. She considers taking Sandels literally and mouthing a quick prayer to Mist, bu...

Groundtown "Well, that seems fair as long as you need the things more than they do," says Lia reasonably. "Which I'm sure you do...?" It's barely a question, because she barely expects an answer. They could be doing a lot worse. Lia looks dubiously at the metal lift. Her fear of...

Re: Skyside Prime
Groundtown Among the many things that Hyphaelia is unaware of is slavery, so she's entirely unconcerned with the possibility. Ignorance is confidence. But one thing she's not very confident in is above them. She quails as Sandels points at the distant sky city. "Oh, we're going up there? Okay....

Re: Vigil

One such party goer has just arrived, striding through the entrance with an easy confidence that speaks of experience with high society. They appear human, slim yet athletic with an indeterminate gender and slicked back...

Re: Skyside Prime
Groundtown Hyphaelia is in no way put off by scrounging through the trash. Decay is a part of life, and in her estimate usually the most delicious part. Waste not want not. She accepts the roadkill happily, although her method of eating it is a little unique. She exhales a small cloud of spores tha...

Re: Skullfort Town

Re: Skullfort Town
Forest The night passes, and as it does so the energy inside the desiccated corpse grows in strength slowly but surely. It's around six in the morning when it suddenly flares up, easily apparent to the watchful soul. It's a sudden pulse of life force, like a bubble bursting all at once. This is acc...

Re: Skullfort Town
Forest Lia goes down immediately, her mushroom cap and the head within both shattered. She falls limp and lifeless to the ground. However, her spirit does not depart. In fact, her body doesn't actually seem to lose its vital essence at all. Instead, it's somehow restructuring itself. Sandels can se...

Dancing Fox Inn Lia casts a last glance back at Mist and shrugs. For what it's worth, she has very little idea what they're doing either. Taking the Colonel's hand, she clambers up behind him on the horse, holding onto his waist to keep steady. She's still quite awkward in the saddle, but she's get...

Re: Skullfort Town
Dancing Fox Inn That's a lot of foxes. Hyphaelia is impressed. She'd probably be even more impressed if she knew exactly what a fox was. When the dead are mentioned, she gets a weird look for a second. Maybe she's hungry? The moment passes by quickly. She gives a little bow to Mist, somewhat disapp...
