Welcome to Gaia! ::

Marael stared at Luke a moment, looking surprised despite her earlier conclusion. She looked down at the map, then up at the twin suns, and lastly around at the other faces. They looked completely serious.

"I see." She said simply, rolling up the map carefully and putting it back in the mapcase. She opened her mouth to ask them if they had a place to spend the rapidly approaching night, when suddenly Gaebrial leapt back into the camp, growling low in the back of his throat. Marael immediately dropped to one knee infront of the large panther. "What is it, Gabe?" She asked, her eyes scanning the panther for some clue as to this odd behavior. He twitched his tail and gave a low yowl, his golden eyes darting around the clearing. She tensed, recognizing the noise to mean something was coming towards them, and it was probably hostile. Most of the elven woods were realitively safe, but there were a few hostile creatures roaming around. She straightened and turned to the others.

"Something is coming this way." She said, following Gabe to the edge of the clearing. She peered into the distance, but could not see anything out of the ordinary through the gigantic trees and underbrush.

"Something else? I wonder what that could be." Valerye said without much enthusiasm. When Marael looked off into the distance, Valerye didn't feel at all reassured. "Joy. Now we can all sit down and have a lovely picnic. Or would everyone rather a cup of tea?"

((Sorry if Valerye's comments agitates you in the future. It's just her personality.))

Valerye rolled her eyes, her bo staff ready. She knew she wasn't be addressed, but she spoke before realizing. "Let me see, something small, fluffy and cute?" Valerye asked sarcastically. She wondered what on Earth could be coming for them now. 'Well, technically, we're not on Earth anymore, so I can't say that anymore...' Valerye thought as she wondered why such unlucky things were happening.

As he walks through the forest garbed in purple leather armor with his bow made of the ancient wood, after carefully slipping past the Border Guards, he hears a rumbling sound. It almost sounded like growling. What could it be? Another weakling animal that thinks it's tough? The only animals that could pose a threat live around Shalondia. Why would it travel way out here?

He decides that he should find out what the animal could be. He removes his bow, that is marked with the sign of an outcast, from his back and knocks an arrow. He really doesn't feel like fighting but feels he must if it's bothering another animal or worse an elf. Elves are very capable of taking care of themselves but around here they aren't used to fighting the animals. Least of all an animal from Shalondia.

((Um, this may not be my place...but have your profiles been accepted? I do not see them on the accepted post...))

((Well, generally speaking, you should wait until the GM responds to your profile before posting. I know she hasn't been online for a few days...but still. Your post makes less than no sense, as we have no idea who you are, where you are, why you were in a trance, or why you are about to die... you should prolly wait until Destinywish comes back and responds to you, then we can read your profile and perhaps some glimmer of understanding shall burst forth. Although it's doubtful...that post is very vague.))

(ooc: well lets at least keep it going this might not be what destiny wish had in mind but until we get to the village we're in a bit of a limbo, so lets spice things up a little till then)

Jeni was still tense and observant, then she saw it, some hulking creature was making its way towards the group from opposite the forest. When it got closer she saw it had leathery skin, was around the same size as her, and had fairly large claws and fangs. It's yellow eyes gleemed menacingly in the sunlight
It stopped and observed the group, before letting out a bellowing howl and started rushing towards them.
"If you can't fight stay away from it, those who can, wait for it to slow down after the charge, then hit it." she yelled, moving to the side. Thankfully the creature had been quite a way off, giving her time to yell the instructions and for people to get out of the way.
"Whatever it is, we'll need to be careful, I don't like the looks of those claws or fangs."
