  1. “Kay, but first…” Vance brought out an old sack, setting it down by the Bunny. He spent a solid five minutes trying to cut through its leg, then eventually settled on carving out a chunk of its flank instead. He filled up the sack and sinched it closed and tight, slinging it over his shoulder. “Nothing ever works better for a cold than fresh stew,” he explained.
  2. “Then I recommend you get started.” Quendi dropped off her horse, bringing out her staff again.

  4. “Ah.” A crazy person. “Well, I’d just changed my mind anyways.” Vance held up a finger to test the wind, then pointed to the north. “We’ll camp a few miles thataway. Just about everything will be smelling out this massive tasty bunny, so everything downwind should go here instead of our camp.”
  5. “We’re a few hours out from the town.” Vance glanced out to the sunlight, squinting. “But it’s almost dark, and there are plenty of monsters that like to jump night travelers. I guess we can just make camp here, where we happen to have our convenient jumbo-sized dinner.”
  6. Vance wiped his blades off of the Bunny’s fur, then turned around to face the others. “I’m—“ He stopped, holding up a finger. His footing grew uneven, head drooped, eyes squinted shut. Vance sneezed. He sniffed and looked up. Drat. “I’m Vance. You’re Quest, right? And Bunny Lady is…?”

  8. Vance reached into his jacket and brought out a single wooden disk engraved with a series of symbols. It wasn’t technically his - she’d told him to use it only in emergencies, and not at all if possible - but the thought of letting anything wait and die and in pain so long… He drew upon the talisman’s power, feeling it flow into and rejuvenate him. Vance steadied both his blades, bringing them behind him and crouching low. The air condensed around them again, enhanced by the talisman’s power channeled into his magic. He took in a breath, laying out his attack in his mind. Sorry, Bunny, Vance thought to himself. Another slash: both blades leaving a blinding arc of power from the ground to the air above his head. The shockwave let out a crack, buffeting the three of them in a harsh wind. When it settled, the Bunny had stilled - until it teetered forwards, and its head fell clean off. - - - - - - Quendi glanced back at from where they’d come. The metal they were looking for certainly seemed interesting. Perhaps it was worth a little risk. “How long does it take to mine your metal?” She asked. @xinoehp512
  9. "Given enough time I could cut through it, but..." Vance looked into the Bunny's eyes. "...I do have an option. I don't like it though."
  10. Tsk. Quendi slung her staff back over her shoulder and jumped up onto her horse. "This isn't quite finished yet." Vance finished tying up the Bunny, stepping back for a moment to admire his handiwork. It thrashed in its bonds, still half-dazed from the gash in its head.
  11. Realizing the ocean towards the mainland would be controlled by dangerous sea monsters now, the Eshael Navar decide to sail further out to sea, for a new continent foreseen by one of the Magelords using his Magelords sword, which allows him to see the future. The journey proves difficult, but eventually they make it to the distant land of Kavara, where they begin to settle. At the same time, a small group of explorers arrive on the continent, hoping to find a way back home. They discover that there is no direct route, and they must explore the land first, before deciding how to return. Seems pretty straightforward. There's lots of map expansion to come soon! @Shallan Stormblessed, it's your turn.

    This is the famous image of a massive space dust cloud known as the Pillars of Creation, taken by the Hubble Telescope:

      Astronomy is just too cool. We can't stop talking about it.

      @DramaQueen I once heard this particular formation called "The Fingers of God" specifically because it looks like a hand. (And the fact that it's multiple light-years across.)

  13. Can you explain elbows to me? I've never been able to draw them properly.
  14. Vance looked down for a moment. What the... "So you can summon rope!"
  15. "Whatever. We just need to finish this thing off before it starts rampaging through the town." Vance almost fell out of stance, knees wobbling a little. "Agh... but that last blow really took it out of me."
