"Well, we're about to Narrate."

Calano waved his hands, and the Unseen Plane retreated over the horizon, replaced by the green grass of the world Calano created, in a time that seemed so long ago.

Calano plucked a Blaisy from the ground, a small black flower, and gave it to Lana.

"It's good to see you," He said, smiling softly.

"Now, we're going to use an... unorthodox method to contact your friend. What's their name?"

Lana laughed. "Why, thank you!"

"Their name is Morose Oddtempered"

Calano reached into his pocket, pulling out a small golden coin.

He Narrated a spring into existence, and a fine mist formed a rainbow in front of him.

"O, Iris, Goddess of the Rainbow, please accept my offering."

He threw the coin into the rainbow, and it vanished with a shimmer.

"Show me Morose Oddtempered."

The rainbow shimmered until a figure appeared in the mist.

now you describe who the mate looks like and stuff

[The Bookwyrm he/him]

Meanwhile, Rym snuck next to the base of one of the turrets and covertly disabled it.

Lana gasped. "I haven't seen Riordan--I mean Morose in years."

Morose stood washing dishes. He had a sulky face with sunken eyes and a long droopy chin.

"Wow, time hasn't been good to him," Lana muttered, smirking. "Now how do we get there?"

[Going_North_cal]

Morose looked up, then dropped the plate he was washing into the sink.

He cursed, then said, "How the hell-"

[Shining Silhouette he/him]

Lana gave a short wave. "Hey Morose!"

[Going_North_cal]

"Gods, Lana. What is going on, how is this happening?" Asked Morose

Calano smirked.

"It's an Iris-message. Pretty simple." Responded Calano

Lana nodded solemnly. "Yeah there's like this greek gal or Goddess or somethin who's helping us talk. I remember reading about her in this weird book about hummus and brains made of seaweed."

"Aaaaaanyway have you seen my sister around anywhere?"

[NameIess]

A speaker crackled to life, and several cameras popped out of the wall to observe the prospective Rondstealers. "What in the Whipercrack's name are all of you doing?"

"Aaaaaanyway have you seen my sister around anywhere?"

"No, I haven't. Last I saw her she said something about 'Going back to the beggining of it all.' or something. Whatever that means."

[Shining Silhouette he/him]

Lana looked perplexed. "I wonder how somebody would pronounce the word, 'beggining'?" She shook her head. "But I digress."

"I think I know what she meant, though. When we were kids we used to go to a lake that whenever it stormed, a whirlpool would appear in the center. We dubbed it 'the beginning of the universe'. I wonder if that's what she meant...?"

[Going_North_cal]

Morose shrugged. "Not up to me. Can you uh, stop this weird message thing now, are we done here?"

Lana shrugged. "Sure. And hey, if you need any help washing dishes, I might know a guy with some sick water powers. His name was like Peter Johnson or something."

[Going_North_cal]

Calano grinned, then slashed his hand through the Iris-message, turning it off.

"That was eventful."

[Shining Silhouette he/him]

Lana smiled back. "Indeed."

"Now all we gotta do is find that whirlpool. Hopefully she's still there and we can figure out what in Merciful Domi's shattering glass is going on with your feathers"

[Going_North_cal]

The Mother. The Mother.

"Yes, please. They're chanting again."

[Shining Silhouette he/him]

Lana sighed. "Again? Well, we better get moving." She twisted her bracelet and transformed into the elegant purple bird. "C'mon."

[Going_North_cal]

Calano grinned, and spread his wings.

"You know where we're going, so I'll follow you."

[Shining Silhouette he/him]

Lana soared towards the mountains in the distance, every one in a while glancing back at Calano. "Hey, you slowpoke!" she called. "Keep up!!"

[Going_North_cal]

"I was in a void for Gods know how long! I haven't flown in a bit!"

[Shining Silhouette he/him]

Lana did a triple front flip. "I can see!"

[Going_North_cal]

"Showing off? I can do that."

Calano tucked his wings in and dove towards the sea. At the last second he spread his wings, and sucked up seafoam and spray in his wake. He dove into the sky, twirling, and created a fountain of foamy white seawater.

He flew up to Lana.

"Yeah, try doing that."

"Fine by me. We should get this done quick before-" alarms began blaring, turrets popping out of the wall and locking on to the group. "Before that happens."

50 minutes ago, Nameless said:

mythos said loudly, "We're just here to ask one of the Ronds a question about how to build a nuclear powered mixer. I've grown peckish for nuclear milkshakes."

Just now, Thaidakar the Ghostblood said:

mythos said loudly, "We're just here to ask one of the Ronds a question about how to build a nuclear powered mixer. I've grown peckish for nuclear milkshakes."

"And why didn't you just ask me? I'd have let you in."

[Shining Silhouette he/him]

Lana smirked. "Nice!"

She dove downwards towards the water, this time angling her body to reduce surface area by as much as possible. She hit the water, went under, and flew up twirling, spraying water in every direction in a majestic spiralling motion.
