Woken up by Aaron, Sasha smiles warmly and looks around. "Hey you, all good?" She asks with a small yawn, slowly readying herself for her watch by the campfire.
Perception: 19
William is happy with an uninterrupted night's sleep.
Player: Any Good Alignment // DM: Lawful Evil
Gerty opens her eyes at the first morning light and just lays there a minute trying to comprehend what just happened. Was she really there? Was that my dream or was she actually in my dream?? And did the dragon mean anything?
She then hops up, a bit too fast and feels a tad dizzy. "Sasha! Will, Luke... I think I saw Rikaria in my dreams. Like, she entered my dreams?" She puts her hands on Sasha's arms, and looks at her seriously, "Can that be possible?? She seemed very excited about it. She told me about her lessons and how well things are going. Oh! she also said that the Harpells are really interested in the temple we found under the well and that the Mistress asked Rikaria to go back there...." Gerty lets go and fades off a bit, then looks back at Sasha, "She'll be ok there, right?"
Aaron smiles at Sasha, "Nothing but the starry night to view it all its glory." He spreads his arms sleepily, looking up and gesturing towards the impressive expanse. "Now if you'll excuse me, I think I've viewed my fair share of the god's realm and it's time for some shut-eye." He makes his way towards his bedroll, slips in and sighs deeply. "Goodnight Sasha.."
"You know Aaron, they say the starry skies is even more interesting to watch with the right company." Sasha say with a giggle. "Sleep well now."
Aaron heads of to bed as Sasha takes her place on watch. Enjoying the warmth of the fire. The flames dance back and forth, holding Sasha’s attention, sort of hypnotic in a way. In the dancing flames she sees a Satyr dancing and blowing the his pipes. It seems the fey realm has come for a visit in the camp fire…Sasha can’t help but giggle at its antics and at her youthful memories of her hidden patron.
As her watch ends as peacefully as it started, it seems a few flurries of snow are dropping from the night sky. Sasha hardly noticed how much the temperature has dropped.
third watch begins, roll perception
William sleeps deep, with no dreams he can recall
perc. 19
Luke ushers Sasha off to bed and takes his place the fire. He feels a strange sense of excitement, like a little bit of deer fever after his dream. As he looks at the fire he begins to imagine roasting a nice hunk of venison…seasoned with salt and garlic…
Keeping a good watch on the camp the rest of the night, the sky begins to lighten a bit as the sun pushes its way onto the horizon. The sky has thick, gray clouds and the ground is covered in heavy frost. Luke can see his breath turn to mist on this cold morning, but all is well as he awaits his friends to finish their rest.
With the cold morning setting in, and freezing him awake. Loran stirs with a start, every detail of his dream seared into his memory. Quietly getting himself up as to not wake anyone, and going over his possessions as usual, he finds two worryingly familiar Shortswords, Other than being a bit old, they seem well cared for as far as he knows. He pinches himself before picking one up. Ouch... Yup He's awake.
Groaning and setting the blade back down, Loran will have plenty of time to fruitlessly ponder about it on the rest of the way to Mirabar. Atleast he can bring the- Oh wait was Luke watching him this whole time? "Uh, Good Morning Luke, were you up on watch last?" Loran says trying to play off his little moment. And most likely failing.
High Hopes, Low Rolls. Timezone Is EST.
Surely THIS one will reach an ending...
Sasha awakes to a new day, starting by cuddling up with her sheep to get some warmth into her body after the temperature drop. She then starts to eat some rationed breakfast by the campfire while bidding all her friends a good morning.
Luke gives a little smile and nods “Yup, sure was. It was a cold night. My bones weren’t ready for that yet. How’d everyone sleep?”
"Heh no kiddin... Cold feels like a understatement. The sheep are better dressed for this weather than we are." Loran says with a grin. "Hopefully not too much farther now..."
"Oh and uh, Mornin Sasha, you sleep okay?"
High Hopes, Low Rolls. Timezone Is EST.
Surely THIS one will reach an ending...
"Well, I slept okay, but it certainly was colder tonight, I should have brought my winter cloak, perhaps I can buy myself a new one in Mirabar." Sasha answers Loran with a warm smile.
Gerty opens her eyes at the first morning light and just lays there a minute trying to comprehend what just happened. Was she really there? Was that my dream or was she actually in my dream?? And did the dragon mean anything? And brrr... why is it so cold?
She then hops up, a bit too fast and feels a tad dizzy. "Sasha! Will, Luke... I think I saw Rikaria in my dreams. Like, she entered my dreams?" She puts her hands on Sasha's arms, and looks at her seriously, "Can that be possible?? She seemed very excited about it. She told me about her lessons and how well things are going. Oh! she also said that the Harpells are really interested in the temple we found under the well and that the Mistress asked Rikaria to go back there...." Gerty lets go and fades off a bit, then looks back at Sasha, "She'll be ok there, right?"
William wakes up at the noise.
Bandits? Where?? What? Oh... Well... if she learned how to talk to you in your dreams she muste be a really powerful wizard, right?
Player: Any Good Alignment // DM: Lawful Evil
Sasha giggles at first. Of course Rikaria was in Gerty's dreams, she didn't have to tell her that. But then she gets serious as Gerty grabs her arms. "I'm sure she will be okay Gerty. If she is already powerful enough to visit you in your dreams she will have no problem dealing with whatever we left down there in that temple." She says, giving Gerty a reassuring hug. "Hopefully we get back to Longsaddle soon and maybe we can join her in investigating that temple, would be fun right, almost nostalgic to go back there now." She says with a soft laugh.
The sun continue to rise, the prairie becoming a sea of diamonds as the light reflects off the frosted grass. After packing up the camp, you head back out onto the road towards Mirabar.
After an hour of travel, you can make out the edge of the Lurkwood Forrest. There is a rider casually riding out of the forest in your direction. He appear to be a shorter fellow, the hood of his cloak is up and from this distance you cannot see his face or details. He doesn’t seem to have much in the way of gear.
(he is approximately 300’ away at this point)
Noticing the rider in the distance, Sasha stops playing her flute and steps forward to greet the rider, waving at him as he approaches. "Greetings, what news from the north?" She calls out with a friendly smile.
Persuasion to get peaceful contact: 18
Aaron wakes in the morning with a shiver as he jumps out of his bedroll into a frost-laden world. He packs his belongings up and loads up one of the horses with the gear before moving forward on the road.
As Sasha would call out at this rider, Aaron would approach as well, staying near her side.
