Celeste Aragorne The group has arrived at a large snowy field. A sense of familiarity filled the air as Shia quickly disappeared. After a few moments, he reappeared, "Wow, that was quite a doozy. Somebody should really fill in those potholes. Be careful and watch your step everyone." ((Roll 1-10 sided die. Odds and you fall in a hole, no points. Evens and you are lucky to miss all the holes, 1 point.))

Bardess Ookami Tarvek looked at Shia, then at Sophie. "He can fly. How did he fall?" To prove his point, he flew.
"We should be careful," Yamano cautioned. "Would you like me to go first?"

Celeste Aragorne After pulling a few of the ponies out of the snow, the group carried on with their journey. That is, until they came upon a split in the road. "Well now, this is quite embarrassing. I can't believe its been so long that I have forgotten which trail leads towards the cliffs." Shia turned to the group, "Which way do you think we should go guys? Left or Right?" ((Make your choice))

Celeste Aragorne Shia thwaped himself on the forehead and called down the right pathway, "Hey guys, I remember now. Don't kill me but we needed to take the left. We'll wait for you to get back over here." The ponies changed directions.

Bardess Ookami "Does that mean we should leave?" Tarvek asked. There was nothing interesting to do yet. He was getting bored. At least on the ship there had been an engine. "Those Zetta sons of digits can deal!" Sho yelled into his megaphone.Yamano glanced at Senka.

Divena Ranulf rolled his eyes and headed home, deciding that this was too much trouble.
"This... isn't going to go well. We should stick around," Sophie decided. "It might get interesting... or there could be parts in the future."

Divena "And even if we don't get any parts for your floating tub, at least you'll get to meet more ponies," Sophie sighed. Maybe if she wasn't the only one dealing with him, Tarvek won't be so frustrating.
