Mike let his hand rest at his side. "Physically? Yeah. Mentally? Pretty shaken up. I'm just glad you aren't hurt. And I'm really sorry you got roped into all of my...family problems."
Through The Living Glass She/They Posted August 21, 2024 Posted August 21, 2024 Spoiler *sigh* welp, here goes nothing. Somewhere, Aora awakened. The wind howled in her ears. She was almost completely numb, and when she opened her eyes she found herself partially buried under a snowdrift. Shifting her head to look around, she saw only jagged boulders covered with more snow. As she pulled her limbs free and carefully sat up, she discovered her skin was a pale blue color, and her hands wouldn't move. She pressed herself against the vertical face of a nearby boulder and stumbled upright, trying to catch her balance. Unsure of what else to do, she set off to find help; if there was any help at all. It's so cold...

Through The Living Glass She/They Posted August 21, 2024 Posted August 21, 2024 (edited) Aora heard people talking. She stumbled towards the sound and saw a river with a few figures nearby, walking away. She gasped and collapsed on the ground behind them. "C-cold..." she said weakly. @The Aspiring Archivist @Experience @Scars of Hathsin Edited August 21, 2024 by Through The Living Glass ninja'd and grammar -_-

Why can't he just leave us in pea- he thinks, before realizing that the man from earlier had not in fact followed them and that someone else was on the ground in the snow. "Umm...Erin...?"
Scars of Hathsin he/him Posted August 21, 2024 Posted August 21, 2024 Arranis jumps, seeing the blue person drop before him. "What the hell" he runs over to the person, drinking in some stromlight that came from the magic that hung in the air. He picks the person up feeling for a pulse and lashes himself towards the other two people. 'Do you guys know where a healer is?"

Through The Living Glass She/They Posted August 21, 2024 Posted August 21, 2024 Aora felt a hand on her shoulder, and slowly relaxed. Breathing became easier, and she felt feeling return to her hands and feet. "Th-thank you," she whispered sleepily. She was still cold, but... it was a different kind of cold. A comforting, friendly kind, rather than a biting kind. She positioned her hands beneath her and cautiously sat up. "Thank you," she said again to the man standing above her. "How did you do that?" Spoiler Sorry I'm doing homework rn as well

It seemed to Aona that he was avoiding the question, but she was grateful nonetheless. Perhaps she would find out later. She looked to the other two. Maybe one of them could tell her? "Who are you?" she asked them, standing wobbly. Her black clothing was in tatters, shredded through the arms and back. What a shame...
