Seems like there may be some truths involved in that. 8 hours ago, Random Bystander said: "Okay!" She skipped away, out of the guard's sight. "Well. That didn't work very well..." She scanned an un-guarded area of the wall. "I might be able to blend into the wall, and scale it." She looked at Sequence. "What do you think?" “Hmmmm... I still do not see why you don’t just tell them what you are... they are very interesting. You humans and your lies. I do ‘t understand... But, the wall, yes. You could scale it. Perhaps this is a chance to test your Transformation. Yes. Craft yourself handholds for your strange human appendages. Yes!” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was easy because the guard was distracted by two people. She cloaked herself in an illusion, and tried to get some of the bricks to turn into a soft clay. "It's not working." She whispered to Sequence. "What do I do?" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next, she approached the guard and said "I am Xirenia Ondio, and I need to talk with whoever is in charge of your Windrunner squad." "Ma'am I'm afraid I can't grant that-" 7 hours ago, AmazingGoob said: @Ella1234 @Frustration "Excuse me. Edgedancer, important business." He says to the guard.

I do not know but... try to think of each brick as individual, not as one whole, but as itself. Convince it to be air, not stone.” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few minutes later, she had transformed a few bricks. She had decided that she would make a small opening, instead of trying to climb the wall, and so there was a small hole. "That should be big enough." She squeezed through, and got inside. Once she did, she hid herself with an illusion. "Now what?" She whispered to Sequence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ella1234 Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 "I am Xirenia Ondio and this is Kyt, we suspect the captured singer has plans to escape, and we're here to find out exactly what they are." "Of course, Brightlords" one of the guards responds. "Do you need anyone in there for protection?" "We're 2 radiants, I think we'll be fine. Also, just to be safe, make sure you keep the door locked unless you hear one of us explicitly tell you to unlock it." The guard nodded and opened the door, closing and locking it behind them. As soon as he had done so, Xirenia looked at the Parshendi and asked "What is your name, and why did you come here?" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nak looked up from his cell at the visitors above him, his cell was lined with Rakalist, and the floor covered in water. "I am called Nak, I am called the Voice of Chaos, but I prefer the Voice of Rebirth." He said to the Rhythm of peace, doing his best to keep his mask of calm, while inside his thoughts raced. Why had these humans come, he had taken into account all the Palace staff and the Radiants stationed there, these weren't among them. That was troubling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
