Channelknight Fadran Posted December 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 Quote Almost definitely not, in this case. Vance tentatively stuck an arm into the room. Nothing. Both: nothing. Did he step beyond? Tell the others or make sure Antin was alright? He had a sneaking suspicion as to where he might have gone, though whether his or Quest's help would be most useful was the real question. What the hell. We agreed to pair off: let's keep that working at the very least. With that he took in a breath and stepped through the doorway, immediately being pulled into a plane of infinite darkness. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyako looked over at the tunnel, that presumably lead to the castle. "Let's get going. Stop standing around, we've got stuff to do." With a smirk Miyako fell down into the tree, and onto the tunnel. @Ookla the Crow 8 hours ago, Ookla the BlowUpperOfStuff said: Dansl nodded. “Thank you.” She drifted aside. “You are here? For what?” ”Just looking around,” Kealie mumbled, spraying crumbs everywhere. "We're, ah, just looking around this old house." Quest said, ripping off a piece of his toast.

Medium he/they Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 Hyron jumped down right after Miyako. Talking was... problematic right now, so they decided to mostly keep their mouth shut, lest their feelings let slip something they'd rather not say. Hyron's mind was bogged down with... a lot. They had never been outside of the Forests of Juun before, and now they were on an uncharted island, fighting a queen who, if she knows your name, can and will control you. And they'd... they'd kissed Miyako, which sent Miyako into a spiral of rage and absolute murder, causing the deaths of ten probably innocent- just brainwashed- soldiers. And then, when Miyako woke up, they didn't remember the kiss. Hyron couldn't tell if that was a blessing or a curse. Hyron shoved all that back, knowing it would come back to bite soon, but deciding to ignore that. Instead following Miyako down, into the tunnel. @Ookla the Kobold @Ookla the Forgotten 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dansl (I’ve abbreviated) watched in almost passive eagerness. Nayka liked how… quiet it all was. Simple. Nothing like cities full of open windowsills and flags and ascending buildings and so many places to hide… Quote I don't want to move on without our friends so I guess we'll wait a bit Unrelated but I was bored in class so I drew Miyako, (how I imagine her at least) I hope thats okay I don't know how to spoiler images so hopefully it's not too big??

At last, the rough walls of the tunnel gave way to smooth white stone, though its color was hard to discern in the dark. A small bit of light shone through a crack in the wall, the other side of which showed the kitchen. Up ahead, the group could hear voices. 2 hours ago, Ookla the Myopic said: So do we just want to skip the traveling to the town, since I think they're almost there?
