"Its... How we finish the circle every year" "We fill the symbols with the powder, and wait for any breeze to blow it away"
"Do you mind if I watch?"
She shcarefullyead, beginning to pour the dust on a lightning cloud symbol carefully
Mithris watches her, a little solemnly.
Eventually, when every symbol is filled in with the dust, they step out, linking hands, watching it
Mithris stands nearby, but tries to give them a bit of space.
They sit there, watching until the dust is blown away. E tears up a bit, and Kalnor is looking down
Mithris is silent, waiting for them.
As the last piece is blown away, E slowly sits back in the middle, as Kalnor walks over to Mithris
She waits for him to speak.
"Ayryn... Will probably trance here for tonight...."
Mithris nods. "I understand. Where do you want to rest?"
"Probably just in a room like normal..."
"Is there anything you need, first?"
"I... Dont think so, currently..."
Mithris nods. "Let me know if you do."
"I will... Thank you..." He heads up to his room *Aaaaaannnd timeskip from last night to the present*
Mithris is sitting in the main room.
E is inside chilling
Kalnor is walking down, carrying a piece of paper
"What are you holding?"
"A letter that I found this morning..."
"Who is it from?"
"Im not sure... I cant read it"
"Why not?"
"Its in a language that I dont know"

Soldaer has just been sitting in the corner for most of this time, still a bit unaccustomed to this place. Oddly enough, he almost seems to be looking for someone, if you pay attention to him for long enough.
Enethia walks over slowly "Hello. Are you searching for something?"
Soldaer turns towards Enethia. "Mainly just looking to see if there's any familiar faces. Also kinda looking for that kid I was telling to last night; I think his name was Cody. He seemed nice enough, and he hadn't ever seen a dragon. I happen to have a few trophies from one, both on me and in me room, that I thought he'd like to see."
She seems to sigh slightly "Why did the dragon have to be killed? Was there good reason?"
Soldaer's eyes seem to light up with green fires. "Yes, there was. It was an Adult Green Dragon that decided that when it woke up from a rather long nap, it wanted to eat my village. Obviously, I couldn't let that happen, and as a disciple of both Eilistraee and Mielikki, it is my duty to protect those under my care from those things in the wilds that would harm them."
"I see... Where are you from? Whats your name?"
The fires in Soldaer's eyes vanish rather suddenly. "I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Soldaer Torrae, Ranger and druid in the service of, and blessed by, Eilistraee. I'm from a region known as the Fírantín Forest in my world. Also, I'm sorry if I scared you at all. I know my gaze can be a bit intense, and the memory of battling that dragon definitely brought back some rather dark memories. I'm usually much more calm, but I lost some rather close friends in that particular battle."
"It can take quite a bit to scare me. Im from a weird place. What world are you from?"
"I'm unsure if my world has a name, but the continent my homeland is on is Hyperia."
"What brings you here?'
"I didn't come here by choice. I was chasing a band of marauding orcs from the nearby mountains away from my village, when there was suddenly a brilliant flash of light. I blacked out, and when I woke up, I was practically right outside the door to this place. "
"I see. So something teleported you here..."
"Yeah. Not sure who, or what did, but since I'm a lot more adventurous than most of my people, I honestly don't mind."
"I see... How adventurous are your people? Who exactly are your people?"
"My people are called the Twilight Elves. We once considered ourselves the same as the Drow, but that was before the advent of Lloth, the Spider Queen and Mistress of Chaos. She convinced the majority of the Drow to wage war against the rest of the surface elves, and the Seldarine, but the first of my people saw through her so-called 'promises.' We refused to join the Drow, and as such were nearly slaughtered. Eilistraee, Lloth's own daughter, saved the remnant from the war. Even now though, we are favored targets of Drow surface raids.
"As for how adventurous we are, most rarely venture out of our forest home. I'm one of the exceptions. I have ventured far beyond the borders of the forest. I've seen things most of my kin can only dream of. In my training as a ranger, my teacher even took me on adventures into the Feywild. That's where I found my companion.
"Speaking off which, would you care to go outside and meet her?"
"Its... How we finish the circle every year" "We fill the symbols with the powder, and wait for any breeze to blow it away"

Soldaer has just been sitting in the corner for most of this time, still a bit unaccustomed to this place. Oddly enough, he almost seems to be looking for someone, if you pay attention to him for long enough.
Enethia walks over slowly "Hello. Are you searching for something?"
Soldaer turns towards Enethia. "Mainly just looking to see if there's any familiar faces. Also kinda looking for that kid I was telling to last night; I think his name was Cody. He seemed nice enough, and he hadn't ever seen a dragon. I happen to have a few trophies from one, both on me and in me room, that I thought he'd like to see."
She seems to sigh slightly "Why did the dragon have to be killed? Was there good reason?"
Soldaer's eyes seem to light up with green fires. "Yes, there was. It was an Adult Green Dragon that decided that when it woke up from a rather long nap, it wanted to eat my village. Obviously, I couldn't let that happen, and as a disciple of both Eilistraee and Mielikki, it is my duty to protect those under my care from those things in the wilds that would harm them."
"I see... Where are you from? Whats your name?"
The fires in Soldaer's eyes vanish rather suddenly. "I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Soldaer Torrae, Ranger and druid in the service of, and blessed by, Eilistraee. I'm from a region known as the Fírantín Forest in my world. Also, I'm sorry if I scared you at all. I know my gaze can be a bit intense, and the memory of battling that dragon definitely brought back some rather dark memories. I'm usually much more calm, but I lost some rather close friends in that particular battle."
"It can take quite a bit to scare me. Im from a weird place. What world are you from?"
"I'm unsure if my world has a name, but the continent my homeland is on is Hyperia."
"What brings you here?'
"I didn't come here by choice. I was chasing a band of marauding orcs from the nearby mountains away from my village, when there was suddenly a brilliant flash of light. I blacked out, and when I woke up, I was practically right outside the door to this place. "
"I see. So something teleported you here..."
"Yeah. Not sure who, or what did, but since I'm a lot more adventurous than most of my people, I honestly don't mind."
"I see... How adventurous are your people? Who exactly are your people?"
"My people are called the Twilight Elves. We once considered ourselves the same as the Drow, but that was before the advent of Lloth, the Spider Queen and Mistress of Chaos. She convinced the majority of the Drow to wage war against the rest of the surface elves, and the Seldarine, but the first of my people saw through her so-called 'promises.' We refused to join the Drow, and as such were nearly slaughtered. Eilistraee, Lloth's own daughter, saved the remnant from the war. Even now though, we are favored targets of Drow surface raids.
"As for how adventurous we are, most rarely venture out of our forest home. I'm one of the exceptions. I have ventured far beyond the borders of the forest. I've seen things most of my kin can only dream of. In my training as a ranger, my teacher even took me on adventures into the Feywild. That's where I found my companion.
"Speaking off which, would you care to go outside and meet her?"
She thinks a moment "Sure. Its always interesting seeinh what creatures people have met" she walks out slowly
Soldaer follows her, and once they get outside, he reaches underneath his leather chestpiece and pulls out an ornate whistle made out of solver with gold and mithral vines and flowers wrapped around it. He blows it, and a small black speck appears on the horizon, and rapidly gets closer. Once it reaches Soldaer's side, it becomes clear what it is.
It's a large cat, built similar to tiger, but much larger, standing about 5 ft. at the shoulder. Its fur is pitch black, and its eyes glow with unearthly intelligence. That's where the "normal" aspects of it end though.
Extending out of its mouth are a pair of massive saber teeth, each about a foot long. Flowing back from its head is a massive mane of what appear to be quills that have some form of purple liquid coating the tips. At the end of its rather long tail is a single barb that you can tell is some form of stinger.
Soldaer ruffs the fur behind the creature's ears, and you can hear it purring, even from where you are standing. Soldaer then turns to Enethia. "This is Shade, a Saberbeast from the Feywild. She has been a loyal companion through many adventures."

At the end of its rather long tail is a single barb that you can tell is some form of stinger.
Soldaer ruffs the fur behind the creature's ears, and you can hear it purring, even from where you are standing. Soldaer then turns to Enethia. "This is Shade, a Saberbeast from the Feywild. She has been a loyal companion through many adventures."
She nods slowly, not seeming frightened or surprised much at all "Hello, Shade"

"Its... How we finish the circle every year" "We fill the symbols with the powder, and wait for any breeze to blow it away"
"Do you mind if I watch?"
She shcarefullyead, beginning to pour the dust on a lightning cloud symbol carefully
Mithris watches her, a little solemnly.
Eventually, when every symbol is filled in with the dust, they step out, linking hands, watching it
Mithris stands nearby, but tries to give them a bit of space.
They sit there, watching until the dust is blown away. E tears up a bit, and Kalnor is looking down
Mithris is silent, waiting for them.
As the last piece is blown away, E slowly sits back in the middle, as Kalnor walks over to Mithris
She waits for him to speak.
"Ayryn... Will probably trance here for tonight...."
Mithris nods. "I understand. Where do you want to rest?"
"Probably just in a room like normal..."
"Is there anything you need, first?"
"I... Dont think so, currently..."
Mithris nods. "Let me know if you do."
"I will... Thank you..." He heads up to his room *Aaaaaannnd timeskip from last night to the present*
Mithris is sitting in the main room.
E is inside chilling
Kalnor is walking down, carrying a piece of paper
"What are you holding?"
"A letter that I found this morning..."
"Who is it from?"
"Im not sure... I cant read it"
"Why not?"
"Its in a language that I dont know"
"Can I try reading it?"
"If you want to.." He hands it to her. What languages does she know?
*Common, Elvish, Draconic, Giant, and Celestial.*
She cant understand it
"I'm not sure what it means. Maybe E will know?"
He nods "Ill try her... Its just weird how.it just appeared on my table overnight..."
"That's strange."
He nods "Maybe the translation will make it make sense..." He goes to E, coming back a few minutes later

Shade looks at Soldaer, and he nods slightly. Shade than quietly pads over to Enethia and gently (for Shade at least) bumps into her, as if saying "Hello"
Soldaer laughs slightly. "Hehe. Seems that she likes you," he says as Shade continues to nuzzle into Enethia.

"My people are called the Twilight Elves. We once considered ourselves the same as the Drow, but that was before the advent of Lloth, the Spider Queen and Mistress of Chaos. She convinced the majority of the Drow to wage war against the rest of the surface elves, and the Seldarine, but the first of my people saw through her so-called 'promises.' We refused to join the Drow, and as such were nearly slaughtered. Eilistraee, Lloth's own daughter, saved the remnant from the war. Even now though, we are favored targets of Drow surface raids.
"As for how adventurous we are, most rarely venture out of our forest home. I'm one of the exceptions. I have ventured far beyond the borders of the forest. I've seen things most of my kin can only dream of. In my training as a ranger, my teacher even took me on adventures into the Feywild. That's where I found my companion.
"Speaking off which, would you care to go outside and meet her?"
"If you want to.." He hands it to her. What languages does she know?

Soldaer follows her, and once they get outside, he reaches underneath his leather chestpiece and pulls out an ornate whistle made out of solver with gold and mithral vines and flowers wrapped around it. He blows it, and a small black speck appears on the horizon, and rapidly gets closer. Once it reaches Soldaer's side, it becomes clear what it is.
It's a large cat, built similar to tiger, but much larger, standing about 5 ft. at the shoulder. Its fur is pitch black, and its eyes glow with unearthly intelligence. That's where the "normal" aspects of it end though.
Extending out of its mouth are a pair of massive saber teeth, each about a foot long. Flowing back from its head is a massive mane of what appear to be quills that have some form of purple liquid coating the tips. At the end of its rather long tail is a single barb that you can tell is some form of stinger.
