xinoehp512 he/him Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 1 hour ago, xinoehp512 said: "Sure!" Fallen Leaf scampered off. After a few minutes of travelling, the group arrived at the village. Fallen Leaf stopped and gestured proudly. "Here it is!" At first glance, it seemed surprisingly large, more like a small city than a village. The village was situated on the banks of the river that the trio had been following, with a water-powered mill with smoke pouring out of the chimney. Looking around, however, it was clear that said chimney was in the minority. Very few of the houses the group passed seemed to be occupied- in fact, they seemed somewhat run down. Near the edge of the forest, several had even been broken down by steady natural growth. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her gaze floated upwards, towards one of the rocks floating in the sky. She sighed again, and scooped Fallen Leaf up onto her shoulders. "Perhaps if your ship had not been broken... but it is too late now. The Queen has surely learned of your arrival, and she will not let you escape." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
