They carriage and soldiers were the only other travelers on the road. The two groups continued for a moment, side by side. It was horribly quiet. A shout came from within the carriage and it stopped moving. One of the nearest soldiers gave an audible sigh, and was elbowed by one of his companions. The door to the carriage swung open, and a young girl jumped out, not waiting for a footman to help her down. Her dress too, was an extreme pink. Lined with opals and covered in bows, it was kind of hard to look at. Her curly black hair was pulled into two pigtails, and they bounced vigorously as she approached them. "Who are you?!" She asked. It was hard to tell whether she was eager, or enraged. Either way she was loud. Whist reflexively put a hand on Fiadh's shoulder, too stunned to think of an answer. She had a feeling her companion was right to believe this girl wasn't very friendly. Nayka slipped behind Whist, mind in overdrive at the sight of the cart. It could be mine, it should all be mine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her eyes seemed to flash with something, but again, it was indiscernible in the dim light. The mental pressure on the three of them to leave redoubled. Miyako nodded sagely, barely holding back a laugh. "Mmkay, see ya later princess." 12 hours ago, The Aspiring Archivist said: Antin gasped as he broke the surface of the cube. However, the trip into the acid had weakened the vines and they snapped right before Antin was fully free. He cried out in pain, managing to pull himself out. He got up, stumbled for a few steps, then collapsed to the ground. Quote Probably bad burns to exposed skin and general acidic wear to any objects and clothes. I'll leave it up to you to decide how severe you want it to be. Quest gasped and almost ran forward towards Antin. However, stopping the ooze that still creeped towards Antin seemed more pressing. Quest quickly scribbled an extra rune onto his paper. He had never tested anything like this but now seemed as good a time as any. Since the current vines couldn't affect the ooze, Quest need something with a little more kick. Quest touched the new rune on his sheet of paper and forced some fire magic into it. A flame raced up the vines, turning them into blacked ropes of flame. Quest commanded the vines out towards the ooze and this time they caught on, burning into the slime as they pushed through its body. Quest waited a moment until the vines burned away enough grip and then he wrenched outward, pushing each vine violently away from each other. The resulting mess was a seething splatter of vines and slime. Quest pulled his hand away from the paper rune circle as the opposing magic types consumed each other. He ran to Antin. "Antin, are you ok?" Quest asked, breathless from both the fight and general shock. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antin's body was covered in burns, and he hissed as he tried to push himself up with an injured arm. Quest gently pushed him back down and pushed healing magic through Antin's body. He grimaced. "There isn't a lot I can do about your broken arm but this should soothe the rest for-" A voice cut him off as the witch walked around the edge of the house, about 10 feet away. "Well, you two have proven quite the nuisance. Now that you've broken into my house and partially ruined my tome I won't have to feel to bad about brutally killing you." She spoke formally, almost disinterested as she pressed a hand against one of one of the wounds in her side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was so much stuff on her. 14 hours ago, The Halcyon Girl said: Nayka slipped behind Whist, mind in overdrive at the sight of the cart. It could be mine, it should all be mine. "So?!" the girl demanded, she was obviously used to getting her way. Whist kept her mouth closed, the chances of her saying something stupid and making the problem worse were very high. That, and rich people scared her. A lot. Except Larsik, but . . . he wasn't really normal. She continued to hold onto Fiadh, partly to hold her back--if they stole anything they would be in serious trouble, but also to calm her own nerves.
