Re: [The Dorms] A Perilous Acquaintance

“Through the night,” answered Bjorn, balancing himself on the headboard as Willow made herself comfortable, “we were convinced you were dead when you were struck down.” “You mean when you thought she was struck down,” chirped Curie excitedly as she entered into the room. The odinkine stared her down...

Re: [The Dorms] A Perilous Acquaintance

Willow’s faithful chair was side-stepped by the Alchemist, who did not take his eyes off of her as she moved. His oxfords seemed to offer no hindrance in his ginger movement. When she took the back step, he bounced off his toes into her lunge. With a curl of his wrist, the sword in his hands pointed...

Re: [The Dorms] A Perilous Acquaintance

The Alchemist, hearing Willow, turned sharply to get struck square in the face by the cup. If throwing them had been a sport, it would have been one Willow had been adroit at. Her missile flew with all the force her athletic ability had imbued in it and so the vessel shattered once it struck Mr. Cax...

Re: [The Dorms] A Perilous Acquaintance

The Alchemist’s eyes had been on the vial, searching beyond it for a lost thought, before they rose back to meet Willow’s in all of their enigmatic, divine color. A smile curled under them, revealing a toothy grin. “Allow you to roam free in my backyard, and all I have to do is more work? What a dea...

Re: [The Keep] Walking to Skye

“Scholarships?” In Drysi’s mind was an image of people, of even more friends that she could know and identify with in the strange realm that was Safeholme. This world wasn’t just a co-mingling of incompatible schools of magic, but of the colors of the druids weaving through. It would be easy, a fore...

Re: [The Dorms] A Perilous Acquaintance

One of the golems embedded into the hillside shuddered to life. With lumbering steps, it extended its stone hand and gently slid the truth of Manon’s origins away. Documents in hand, it began slow, careful steps up the stairway into the Archives. Whatever truth was within, Manon would never know now...

Re: [The Dorms] A Perilous Acquaintance

The man across from Willow crossed a leg over his knee and ran his hand through his hair. His eyes darted off to the horizon, taking in a withering canopy of trees across from their side of the valley. Cogs were whirring behind his eyes, but they slowed to a stop when those eyes came back onto her a...

Re: [The Keep] Walking to Skye

When someone knows your name, it can be a bit surprising if you’re not ready. When someone knows your whole curriculum vitae, it can be unsettling. This was the take Drysi had, especially when the title Scion of the Maelgwyn Bloodline came up. It was nothing special, she thought at first, anyone cou...

Re: [The Keep] Walking to Skye

“A fourth! I knew they kept the pretty people in hiding somewhere,” Drysi thought aloud. ”Considering they’re liaisons, they probably don’t hide very often,” addressed Gideon, turning his head so he could look both at his druid and the woman who had come in. ”I know that! I– Ugh. Do you have to be ...

Re: [The Dorms] A Perilous Acquaintance

After the first sip of tea, Willow could feel the soreness of cuts and bleeding in her throat begin to mend. At the second, the bruises and wounds on her body knitted together, smoothing out to fresh skin. Even the fatigue of the day was beginning to wear off, as a feeling of warmth brought on new e...
