OOC: Is it okay if I join?

IC: Fangoth was walking down the human road towards the beautiful forest. He enjoyed being in this strange land, but he was weary of its creatures. Fangoth entered the forest listening to the birds chirp and cackle. Then he laziliy sat down to think over what Verna told him.
She told me to find a good place, away from humans and rest there. Hunt if I need too, but don't stray far from the safe place. Okay, now she told me something else, let me think here... pondered Fangoth. Yes, I remember now! She told me to stay in the safe place away from the creatures that might harm me..... Great....
Fangoth snorted, for he liked adventure. Especaily in unknown places that he hasn't explored yet. He layed down on a pile of leaves, which crunched underneath his weight. He lifted his head at the sky. He daydreamed about catching a good meal, like those pesky rabbits that always taunt him with their fluffy little tails. Then he jerked away from his daydream, for he smelled the faint scent of blood..... Coming closer..
Fangoth froze, hoping that nobody will see him, even though it might not work because of his dark coat..

Fangoth couldn't move, his legs didn't obey him. He whined with fear as he saw a centaur string his bow, but the arrow failed to get him and it hit the tree trunk that was behind him. I'm a friend! I'm not the stupid mutts that you'll find here! howled Fangoth. He got up and hid behind a tree before anymore harm could reach him.
Celeste, please protect me from harm... Why am I praying to a god? questioned Fangoth to himself.

In the village nearby, Verna was getting goods and meals and doing theives stuff. Verna stole a ring, a scepter, and a wizard's staff. Verna knew Fangoth would get mad at her for stealing again, but she knew that she could frame someone else.

OOC: Yay!

Fangoth stealthly followed the centaur into the village. He liked centaurs for they were noble and creatures that were common in Avalia.
He also knew that they can be dangerous too. Then he spotted Verna, awkardly dragging a large wagon behind her. "Hey Fangoth! Do you want to be hosre again?" asked Verna. Fangoth rolled his eyes. Well, yes and I geuss you weren't serious when you told me to find a nice safe place to stay at.. scoffed Fangoth. Verna smiled and put the wagon on Fangoth.
Now they were offcailly the strangest people in the village. A large black wolf with thick hair was dragging the wagon behind him and a little person was perched on the wagon smiling at people. And secretly, she stole the head wizard's staff...

Verna smiled at the centaur. "Hello and well met, centaur. I haven't seen a centaur in another country for years!" Verna giggled. So we meet again. At least this time you're not shooting arrows at me...
"I'm not local, but I know how to heal with herbs! Trust me, the herbs from Avalia and rather... powerful.... But I'm Verna and," Verna pointed at Fangoth, "This is Fangoth. He's a little teddy bear inside...."
Fangoth glared at Verna. And he snarled at a dog that came too close to the wagon. The dog ran away with his tail behind his legs whimpering. Mutts...
Verna grinned again. "So, I see that you have met Fangoth before." People had their mouths wide-open and their eyes were wide. A child clung to his mother and pointed at the wolf and centaur.

Verna jumped down and opened up her pack. She got out a few herbs and a bolt of cloth. "This may hurt a bit!" she warned. She washed the wound and mashed the herbs up into a thick paste. Then she applyed the thick paste on his wound and wrapped the cloth around it. "There, that should be better! It'll pain you for a few hours, but it'll heal right up! The herbs I used are from Avalia! Though they were my last batch.."
You have no herd? That is unusual.... What happened to them? asked Fangoth. Verna is right, your wound will heal in no time! She is a ranger, meaning she knows how to heal with herbs and etc!

"I am sorry... Losing a herd to slavers is terrible... And your mate and your unborn child... I'm sorry for your lost!" said Verna.
"Now Avalia... Fangoth is only native there, thats why nobody knows what creature he is! He is not a wolf, surpraisingly, he just resembles one. Now Avalia! AKA The country of splendors, The Forest Country, The Cursed Country, Country of War, lada lada and all that other stuff. Now, Avalia is one vast country, and most of it is covered in all types of forests. Temperant, Jungles, and other forests. Now, the only ture human settlement is the capital city, Dragoneye City. The rest of the humsns are either adventurers, Amazons, or part of the Northern Tribes. I can go on and on, but it is a vast subject!" completed Verna. She clapped her hands.
Everybody was listening intently and pretended to be shopping. Children sat down nearby, gazing intently at Verna, Fangoth, and Ohanzee.
Verna is an halfling and I'm a magical creature. added Verna.

Verna sat back in the wagons seat, thinking about if she should tell Ohanzee that she stole the wizard's staff... She tilted her head toward the sky. Thinking, right? But, Ohanzee, our country sounds nice but it is full of dangers. The forest is ruled by mainly the elves that live in there and the druid's can be dangerous... The tribes are dangerous too! But, there are lots of centaur herds too... And your apology is accepted. said Fangoth. Verna grinned.
She sat there silently waiting to see if the centaur would return to the center of the village. Ooo! Can I tell the centaur something else too? And can I bring the wagon with me whereever I go? IO enjoy running around with a wagon behind me! asked Fangoth. Verna nodded.
Fangoth leaped and ran with the wagon bounceing behind him, with his tongue hanging out of his mouth. Verna fell into the back of the wagon, with a grunt. Fangoth's tail wagged as he tracked Ohanzee's scent.

"Thank you!" Verna said respectfully and took the coins. "Where are you going now, for now you're stuck with us! You know that forests better then we do, but I need to tell you this:" Verna paused for a moment and whispered to Ohanzee, "We, well I, stole the wizard's staff.... Nobody caught me... But I need it for something.."
Fangoth twisted his head around to look at the halfling. So you stole something... Again... sighed Fangoth. Then, forgetting about the trouble, started to wag his tail excitidly.

Well, Verna is "famous" in Dragoneye... She's the most wanted because she stole the Arch Wizard's staff, Solomon's staff, Evona's staff, the head preist's mace, and more... She's only "famous" in the Laws of the Gods domain of Dragoneye...... Fangoth shook his head.
"Yes, back into the forest! We know how to survive in forests.... And magic users are no problem... All you have to do is sneak behind them when they aren't aware that you are there, well wizards are like that...." said Verna. It looked like that she was confusing herself...

"Hmm... Well, we... Kept them... They're inside of my pack..." Verna said cautiously. I have to keep Verna in check. Her father was a well-known theif too, and her mother was a divine spell-caster.. said Fangoth. Verna glared at Fangoth. He continued to travel on with the wagon following behind him.
"We don't mess around with dragons... We usually work for a good one or an evil dragon that "forces" us to work for it.. I stole my sword, necklace, and guantlets from a dragon's hoard. And it wasn't easy..." Verna smiled casually. We respect dragons... Even if they're evil.. added Fangoth.
"What do you thinkl about dragons? You have gotten our opinion, but what is your opinion?" asked Verna.

Fangoth sniffed the air. His ears perked up. Smell something? inquired Verna. No... False alarm.. said Fangoth unsurely. "Do you know what type of beasts that live in the forests depth?" asked Verna. Fangoth, are you sure that you'll be able to pull the wagon far into the forest? I'm sure that'll have to hide the loot in the magic bag...
I'm sure that'll be able to carry it far!
Okay..
Verna sat back in the wagon relaxing and enjoyin her time.

"Well, this forest sounds much nicer..... In the Great Forest of Avalia, there are beasts, like Gnolls, goblins, bugbears, ogres, orcs, Yaun-Ti, rakshasa, some demons, giants," Verna paused for a moment. Winter Wolves, worgs, and other evil races reside in the dark depths of the Great Forest. But this forest sounds just as dangerous as the Great Forest. We also have to be careful about what caves we enter too. It could lead to one of the beasts homes, or it could lead to the Underdark. Which is no place for surfacers... We also have the common beasts and then the elves and etc.... We have a long list of creatures that live in Avalia, that it could take days to name them all..... said Fangoth.
"Can you tell us the legend of Fenrir?" asked Verna. She was laying on top of a few blankets. Fangoth looked tense, too.

Fangoth blinked. I know that I'm not related to that wolf... Like I said before, I may look like a wolf, but I'm not a wolf... I don't even have wolf blood in me. To be truthful, I'm a mutt, but a magical beast mutt. Fangoth grinned widely showing his fangs.
Verna thought for a moment. "That is some legend.... I know a few legends myself.. Though, they're long...." Verna's mouth twisted into a frown as she thinked. "And these Old Norse gods aren't from Avalia... They come from a country that I don't know the name of it."
Do you want to know one of our countries myths? I know a few... Some of the clerics say it's ture and not a myth... But that'll be for another time....
Fangoth began to get a bit more tense. What is wrong Fangoth?
Nothing for you to worry about....

Fangoth growled to a nearby bush. I'll tell you when we stop for camp if you want to continue to travel with us... Fangoth's hackles were up. Verna jumped up and found what was inside. And it was a.....




Rabbit. An innnocent rabbit. Fangoth growled at the rabbit. Scared of bunny rabbits? And I thought that you're Fangoth the Fearless..... said Verna, being amused at the fact that Fangoth was growling at the rabbit. Fangoth glared at Verna.

OOC: Err.. Sorry if it was kind of short....

Fangoth sighed with relief. Verna layed back on top of the blankets thinking about what it'll be like as they get deeper into the forest. Then she rolled over and put her head in her hands. "Are there any fey that live deeper in the forest? I'm just wondering.." asked Verna.
Why do you ask Verna? Who knows what could be in there!
But he hasn't been that deep into the forest for awhile...
Okay.... Fangoth snorted with frustation(sp).

"Flint works well for skinning your rabbit. But fey... Fangoth will explain what they're better then I can.." answered Verna.
Fey are magical creatures that can be dangerous. Drayds, nympths, glastings, sirines, and others are fey. And we can't forget about pixies, nixies, fairies... So have any of the names of the fey creatures that I have mentioned live here? asked Fangoth.
Verna jumped down from the cart. Time to get out the bag, Fangoth....
Great.. Are you going to tell him about that bag of yours, Verna?
Yes, I have too!
Fangoth shook his head. And then stoped so Verna could take the pulling equipment off of him. Fangoth jumped with joy when he was free from the straps.

I smell an old friend nearby, and I'm free from the harnesses! Yay! he exclaimed. Verna got out a rather lare bag for her size and droped it on the ground. "Hmm... Ohanzee, do you want me to show you some of the staffs that I stole long ago? I don't mind.... Two of them were from my friends," Verna beamed, "And the other one was when I went on those ridiculous missions... Evona's staff is my favorite one..." Verna sat down and waited for Ohanzee's answer.

Verna grinned mischieviously and opened the bag. "They were old staffs that they don't use any more. Before they could throw them away or sold them, I stole the staffs from them", said Verna. She pulled out a knarled staff with vines wound around the staff. At the top was a large green-glowing orb. "This is Evona's staff. You can tell that she was a druid. She had it for awhile and then gained a more prettier and more powerful staff. I wish that I stole that one istead of this. Now," she pulled out a long wooden staff with runes streched into the wood. A magical arua surrounded the staff. "This is Solomon's staff when he was an apprentice to an old elven wizard. He uses his own wizards staff now." Verna leaned over the bag to see what else was in there.
You lost that other staff inside the magic bag!?! scowled Fangoth.
Well sorry... You know that this is a very rare type of magic bags!
Fangoth snorted.
"Now the bag that I pulled out the staffs from is a magic bag. It can hold large items, like a staff and very heavy items like a scepter. Now the weight of this bag is pretty light. So, you can say that the bag reduces the weight of items!" Verna grinned. Verna put the items that she stole and brought in the village into her bag. Then Verna settled down on the blankets that was in the wagon. Fangoth jumped on the wagon, which groaned under his weight, and layed down beside Verna. They waited for Ohanzee's reply.

Verna took the tinder and found some stones as she worked on getting the fire started, Fangoth answered Ohanzee's questions. We got the bag from Evona. She probably got it from Merserflixious. Now we keep the staffs fro Merserflixious, or otherwise know as Merry. But that is when we meet him again.
The fire was started and it was roaring. Verna helped start the flames with a tiny bit of magic. She gazed at the aky as at the setting sun. "Is there going to a be a full moon tonight, Ohanzee?" asked Verna.

"Well, Merry is a rather nice dragon. Plus he's old.... Very old... But don't worry, we're nice good people and not like those foul people that call themselves powerful...." said Verna. And, Verna is a rather powerful ranger. I've been with her ever since she was fifeteen years old. added Fangoth. Fangoth jumped down from the wagon and went towrds a larde boulder. He climbed on top of the large boulder and sat down, facing the bright moon. He stared at the moon.

Verna sighed. "Fangoth knows where we are going exactly. I just know the country's name.." answered Verna. Fangoth woke up form his day dream and sniffed the air. Then he approched Ohanzee. We are heading towards Feayahe. We are to find Evona and Merslifious there. But the we ended up here, because of the wretched portals and the unpredict comings and goings. So Verna headed towards the village to get supplies and find out were we ended up at. And then we met you... said Fangoth. He wagged his tail and laid down beside Verna, waiting for the meal to be done. Verna patted his head, and stood up.
erhaps tomorrow we can shoot. It would be nice, you know!" Verna beamed.

Verna grinned. "In Avalia, the deeper you went into the forest, the more dangerous and darker it gets. I have lived in a dangerous forest for many years of my twenty years that I have lived. But, the forest I knew had the druid groves and the wizard circles... I don't know iif this forest has either of them. But, it'll be an adventure to go into the forests depths. I don't fear death...." Verna stared at the glistening rabbit. Then, Fangoth laid down near the fire, watching the meat hungryly(sp).

Verna took two of the legs and thrown then to Fangoth. Fangoth snapped up the meat. Then Verna took some more of te meat and headed towards a log. For some strange reason, she felt like they were being watched as they ate the meal. Fangoth finished his meat with no hestation(sp). Verna looked into the forest, wondering what will happen to them when they enter the depths of the forest.
Fangoth took the rabbit bones fro his meal and burried them in. Then he laid down and put his head in his large fluffy paws and slowly he closed his eyes. Verna patted him on the head. "So after we clean-up, should we go to sleep for the night?" asked Verna.

OOC: Ok, I can't help myself! This is a perfect entrance point for my char... So if y'all don't mind, (Hope y'all don't) I'm going to enter in now.

IC: Arai'as hid in a nearby tree, watching then centaur and halfling. That sure smells good.. He thought to himself. Arai'as quietly sneaked to the other side of the tree, his claws dislodging tiny bits of bark as they dug in. Will have to wait till they fall asleep.. Maybe longer.. His ears pointed straight ahead as he tried in vain to listen in on their conversation. His mouth watered from the delicious smell of the rabbit. "Just awhile longer and you will be mine.." He whispered.

Fangoth snarled when he sensed something nearby. He didn't like the feeling of the presence... We have something nearby.... But I don't thimk it's hostile.... he said unsurely. Verna looked behind her but didn't see anything. I thought you heard or smelt something, yes, I feel like I'm being watched, but stop being so tense! It could just be a innocent bunny.... Verna sighed. Fangoth pathetically looked at Verna and sighed, trying his best to relax. Verna rolled her eyes, and continued to wait for the centaur's reply.

OOC: Okay!

IC: "No, let Fangoth get first watch. His senses are better then both of ours, and he is pretty good at telling who is our foe or friend," suggested Verna. Verna pulled out a few heavy blankets and a pillow, and put out them out on the ground by the fire. Then she sat down on the blankets and admired her surroundings. "I'm glad that the paste has healed your wound. By the time that we leave in the morning, the scar should of dissappeared, or later on the day... But, at least that scar won't get infected." She glanced at the stars as Fangoth sniffed the air. Should we keep the fire lighted up? Just to ward off any predators... asked Fangoth.

Fangoth's ears perked up when he heard a whisper. His sharp hearing heard all of what it said. Now I know where the intruder is at, and I shall get my revenge for being called a 'foolish mutt'.... Ha! He thinks I'm a mutt... Well I'll show him what this mutt can do! Fangoth sniffed the air and tryed to figure out what his enemy is. Verna put in more firewood and laid down to sleep.
I think this... Lycanthrope... Great.. commented Fangoth to himself. Fangoth then got up and went toward the enemy, and then he hid in the shadows, where the darkness will conceal him.

Verna opened her eyes, and noticed that Fangoth had dissappeared. Fangoth! Get your butt back here! shouted Verna through their mental link. Fangoth snorted, being annoyed, and went near the fire; laid down and put his head on his big, fluffy paws.

OOC: Sorry if it was a bit too short...

OOC: I hope you guys don't mind if i join.
IC: Eriel and Emrhyst were flying above the clouds, Emrhyst's great wings beat the air, they enjoyed the freedom of flight more than anything but each other's company. "Lets go down Emrhyst, we need to set up camp." Eriel said this as the bells on her saddlebag jingled away. "You sure? I'm not going to fly so high up again you know." "Oh im sure" She added with a laugh, "But right now we must rest." "Okay then"Emrhyst replied with a sigh. As soon as Emrhyst started her decent, Eriel's eyes caught sight of a campfire, "Land there Emrhyst." Emrhyst swerved to the side as the turned, nearly making Eriel fall off her back. As they got closer, Eriel noticed a creature spying on the innocent band of travellers. She nocked her longbow and with deadly acuratecy {Sp}, pinned the creature to a nearby tree. They landed and looked at the creature they had trapped.

OOC:Yay! I'm a peasent{Sp?}!! lawl
IC:"Well, looks like we caught a sprite!" Eriel ignored her dragon as she was too intent upon the sprite that they had caught. "What is your name? Why were yo-" she was cut off by the sound of hoofbeats afew meters away. She quickly hid Emrhyst from sight by casting a spell on her. As the stranger approuched, she noticed that he was a centaur. Knowing how dangerous centaurs were, she nocked an arrow and took aim. Before she could release the shaft, the centaur nocked his bow and shot her in the chest, causing her to release the magic on her dragon who let out a loud "Rawr!"

Verna jolted awake from the loud noises near by. In the name of Celeste, what is happening? she thought to herself. She groggily got up, put Leafagas on and the magic bag and went towards the commotion. Fangoth followed her, well aware of his surroundings.

OOC: Sorry if it was a bit short....

Eriel groaned as the arrow struck her, her dragon's mind radiating anger and concern. "I shouldn't have held back, i should've known he would shoot." " Hush now little one, while i deal with this centaur! " Emrhyst made a rush at ohanzee, whithin seconds, she had pinned him to the ground and held a talon at his neck. " Why did you wound my rider!"

Verna rushed into the clearing. Hmmm.... A dragonrider... How interesting... she thought. Fangoth cocked his head. Interesting indeed.. Fangoth "smilied" and Verna looked at the dragon. "Weeellll, it looks like that you're not from around here, or Avalia, or Feayahe.. So, you do look like a good, friendly, stranger, sooo...." Verna stopped for a moment and thought on what she should say next, then she grinned. "I hope you don't have any wounds, but why are you here?" Fangoth looked at the dragon, and he wagged his tail.

OOC: No one's replyin to poor Eriel rofl. very well then, I'll wake her up myself =P I know the post's kinda messy but... i think you'll know how to respond XD

IC: Emrhyst projected her thoughts to that everyone could hear, "We're not here for anything, we're just adventuring and Mr-shoot-anyone-who-comes-near-me had to wound my rider, you know, I-" She was cut off by a sound coming from the back, she looked up and saw Eriel standing, clutching her wound with one hand and the arrow, still bloodied, in the other. "Emrhyst, lend me some strength, i need to heal this wound, it hit a vital spot." Instantly, Emrhyst melded her mind with her rider's, the mental connection, along with the pain returned so suddenly Emrhyst let out a roar of pain. Afew seconds later, the pain was gone and there was no trace of the wound, except for the bloodied arrow and the loss of energy. Then, in her usual cheery tone, Eriel said, "Hey there! Errr.....You guys can stop staring at my dragon, she won't hurt you." Everyone stared at her, amazed at the change of character that had come over Eriel.

Verna smilied. "When I was being taught by my mentor, she taught me how to craft arrows... Do you want me to craft some for you?" Then Verna went on to Eriel. "And I still have a bit of that healing paste left, you know. It would of been better than using your energy to heal that wound. But you are adventurers? Nice... I am one too..." Fangoth snorted. We are sorry to stare at you, dragon. Out of cuiousity, do you have an hoard, dragon? Most of the dragons at Avalia have hoards, except for the ones that adventure alot... Fangoth looked up at the dragon and waited for their reply.

Emrhyst looked at the ruined arrows, her regret could be sensed by everyone there. She almost missed what Verna had said. Projecting her thoughts so that everyone could hear, she turned to Verna, saying, "Oh? Dragons in Avalia have treasure hoards?? I should see some of them.... And yes, me, myself and my rider are adventures." Then she spoke to Ohanzee, "I'm... sorry for the arrows... I shouldn't have been so rash." Within her mind, Emrhyst told Eriel," I like this centaur, he's not like the others i've met." "Indeed.... infact, i like all of them here, they would make worthy companions." Eriel then spoke to Verna, "Oh?? I've seen them before..... they smart alot but it heals every wound... except emotional wounds and that of death. Well, thanks but no thanks, you should save them for when you really need it. And erm... well....we're kinda lonely, travelling in the wilderness alone, do you think we could erm... join you guys?"

OOC:So..... should we wait for gryndel?? I kinda put that part in for him, but... if he doesn't reply then i guess we could imagine some 'creepy guys' LOL I'm going to pm him, just incase he forgot.

IC:Eriel and Emrhyst returned the gesture, she said the traditional phrases and added, " I am Eriel, im still young for an elf, about 116, i don't use swords much and this is Emrhyst, my faithful dragon, who, i must warn you, has never before hesitated to kill someone who has threatened my life, you were quite lucky." She added with a laugh. Eriel turned her neck, she strained her ears, "That's strange.... i thought i heard something...." She quickly nocked her bow, her usually cheerful face giving way to an extremely solemn expression, her eyes scaned{Sp?} her suroundings, she strained her ears for anythings that might give the intruder away.

Verna grinned cheerfully. "Well, I'm Verna Tealeaf of Avalia. I am a well-known thief, adventurer, and traveler of the Great Forest. I serve Avalia and Isilia, Avalian goddess of the woodlands. And this is Fangoth. He is my loyal and faithful companion that has always traveled with me." Fangoth "smiled" again.
I don't think it is wise to go into a dragon's hoard, or they'll slay you without any excuses, for they are very protective of their hoards. And the paste is a special kind... Not made of ordinary herbs... But, don't worry about the sounds. I suspect something is following us, so leave it alone. It might turn up and explain why it is following us. But, like I said before, leave it alone. said Fangoth. Verna patted him on the head.
"Now, we must all rest. Fangoth takes first watch. I'll take third," said Verna. She walked back to their camp and laid out the blankets, settled down on top of them, and went to sleep. Fangoth followed her and lay near the fire and he was well aware of his surroundings.

OOC: Ok... i'll be gone for awhile.. till saturday night actually. I'm putting my charrys in Fire's and witch's hands kay?(One of you can control my drag and another can control Eriel =p) Don't kill them... blah blah blah you can make them faint, kill a capt whatever. Just make sure the thread doesn't die out. Well...a big hug for all of ya, cya on sat night, or sun morn =p

OOC: Back guys! Any ideas? I was thinking ambush by some undead=p

OOC: Hmmm.... I don't know....lol... And I'm out of ideas.... Brain. Dead. AHH!!!! ...lol...

IC: Fangoth stared towards the depths of the forest, thinking. He had thought that he had heard an unuasul(sp) sound near there, and it reeked withthe stench of dead rotting corpes(sp). He covered his snout with his paws, and then he whimpered. He hated going up against undead, for they seem... Stinky... He also never fought undead before, except for the foul hag.

OOC: There... THat should do!

OOC: YAY!!! lol tyvm.
IC: Eriel noticed Fangoth's unsual behaviour and started scanning their surroundings. Emrhyst started to shift with unease. "This doesn't feel right... there's something hostile, and powerful in these forests" Emrhyst said, projecting her thoughts so that all could hear. "Uh-oh....it seems like..." Fangoth finished the sentence "Undead..." An arrow whized past her head and landed itself in a nearby tree. Without warning, the tree started to disintegrate and started to fall in their direction. "Ohanzee!"

"Penatration won't harm them? This will be fun.." She drew her sword and lifted it into the air, the blade catching the moonlight, causing the undead to freeze in their tracks. "Jierda!" The first five undead fell to the ground, each incapitated with broken legs or wings. Emrhyst fought ferociously beside them. The battle was to her advantage, she could use her tail and her paws as maces. She did everything she could, tail, tail, paw, tail. All the way. Out of the corner of her eye, she spied an undead aiming an arrow at fangoth. She leaped into the air and landed between the undead and him, she winced as the arrow melted afew of her scales. Eriel felt the pain and quickly told them, "Take care of the archers first. Their more dangerous than the rest." She penetrated an undead's mind and tried to kill him with the forth word of death. Nothing happened. "Right... their already dead." she paused for awhile to decide what to do. And then, she let out a scream as the undead magicians battered at her defences, forcing her to retreat deep into her mind. She started reciting a verse that Oromis had thought Eragon to use, in a far away land, along time ago. "Under a cold and empty winter sky,stood a wee, small man with a silver sword. He jumped and stabbed in a fevered frenzy, fighting the shadows massed before him." The siege on her mind started to abate, "We should retreat, they outnumber us ten to one and they have magicians within their ranks.

"You shall not fear! Me and Fangoth know a few weaknesses of undead!" said Verna, for she was up and hacking off undead head and kicking butts. Fangoth rolled his eyes. So, can you tell me a few spells that you have prepared before hand? Verna, remember the faults of our magic. reminded Fangoth. "Oh, shut up. I know one spell that I've prepared! I will not surrender!" Then Verna lit up with a small twinkle and casted a spell at an undead. All it really did was make it burn a bit, and it agitated the undead. Umm... Verna, are you sure that was the spell? asked Fangoth.
Yup.
Great.....
Then Verna turned to Eriel. "Umm... Are you sure that they're powerful magicians? Like are they liches among this hoard of undead?"

OOC: Someone heal me

IC:"There was at least one, at the most three, mages probing me. They've got to be strong. They nearly overwhelmed me." She paused to decapitate another undead. "Agh!" Eriel looked at the blade protruding from her chest. Her dragon roared as the pain travelled across their mental link. Instantly they melded their minds. Eriel's eyes turned dark green, then it turned blackish. "Little one, cool down!" Suddenly, her eyes turned black. A powerful aura emnamated{sp} from her. She paid no attention to her dragon or the wound and roared out two words, and two words only, "Andlat! Fricai!" Instantly most of the undead collapsed, unanimated, dead, again. Her eyes turned light green as she thought of what she had done, she lay down on the grass unconsious, her sword at her side, her robe stained with the blood from her wound. Emrhyst curled around her, and left it to the rest to finish off the remaining undead.

OOC: Guys?? Any1 there?? hello????

OOC: Okay, I'll go.

IC: Verna rushed up towards Eriel. She quickly applyed the paste over her wound and wrapped it up. Then she left to help Fangoth kill the rest of the undead. It went by quickly, for the undead weren't as strong as the magicains.
I hope the elf is okay. She could of killed herself doing that. commented Fangoth he looked up at Eriel's dragon.

She'll be fine... She's endured more than this. She looked at her rider and nudged her ever so sweetly, with her mind, she told her, "You did good little one." Turning her attention to the rest she asked, What say we rebuild the camp? Eriel slowly got up. She clutched her chest and told herself, "I must never do that again..." Then she slumped back onto the grass, waiting for the other's reply to Emrhyst's question.

"Okay then, let's head off." Eriel sheathed her sword and climbed onto her dragon's back. Her cloak flying freely in the strong south westerly wind. She looked at Verna and Fankor, "Emrhyst can carry one of you, preferably Fankor." Emrhyst smiled a toothy grin at Fankor. "And Verna can ride Ohanzee. I don't know if everyone's agreeable but i think we had better get off soon, undead are known to attack the same place more than once. She clutched her wound again."

OOC: Who's Fankor? I guess Fankor is Fangoth...

IC: "Well, I guess I missed another night's sleep." Verna sighed. Fangoth looked at the rising sun, and with Verna went and followed. Err... Verna and I are capable of walking. At times, Verna will ride on my back. But, we are leaving the wagon behind. Verna packed all of our (Verna and I's) belongings into the bag. So, off to Feayahe! Lets hope that we don't encounter anymore undead, or meet anyone unfriendly! said Fangoth.

OOC: Opps! wrong charry LOL

IC: "Well then, lets follow him." She headed off into the forest at a slow yet reasonable pace, allowing Verna and Fangoth to keep up and yet keeping sight of Ohanzee. "Emrhyst, go on ahead, i want to talk with verna." Emrhyst knelt and allowed Eriel with slide off her back, then continued walking. Eriel waited for the two behind to come and then said, "Err... Thanks for helping me just now."

OOC: Hm... its Elven-witch's turn now right??

OOC: Noone ever replies no more... I'm going on 2morrow no matter what.

"Oh, it was no big deal. I usually carry around pastes, but I ran out when I came here, to Ceylonur." Verna sighed and looked at the sun. The sun was slowly rising toward the middle of the sky.

OCC: Sorry if the post was short..

OOC: What say we find the portal and head into whereever we're going and find it beseiged?

IC:Eriel ran up to the centaur and put a hand on his flank, "Are you worried Ohanzee?" She looked around the forests, it was quiet, too quiet, even if it was an enchanted wood. Nonetheless, she still followed Ohanzee.

IC: Fangoth smelled the air. I don't have a good feeling about this forest... Too quiet... Ohanzee, did you hear anything about this wood lately? Maybe it's cursed, or something of the sorts.. Fangoth looked at Verna.
"Well, lets hope that the portal is still active, if its not, we'll have to go through the wood," said Verna.

OOC: Hmmm.... Okay.....
