[OOC] Epyllion: Beyond Moonlight's Reach

[Vertigo]

Hell yeah, we're back!

I'm drowning in stuff until the end of the month and behind everywhere, but... will manage a post eventually, hopefully sooner rather than later. Also damn, that's a juicy vision right there 👀 will think on those extra questions!

[XxFellsingxX]

Short post. Thought I'd drop the answer to Skobeloff's roll while we wait for responses. Make of this information what you will xP

[Guardian Angel Haruki]

Sorry for the wait on my post. But it's finally up. ^_^

[XxFellsingxX]

Stargaze: *asks a perfectly innocent question*
Vipereyes: Excuse me while I use this as an opportunity to start shit.

@XxFellsingxX

Oh no. ^^"

Vipereyes' answer certainly is worrying.

[XxFellsingxX]

Just checking in: how's everyone doin'?

[rush99999]

All is well on my end.

[Guardian Angel Haruki]

Doing good here. Just trying to think of a response on my end. ^^"

[Vertigo]

Just finished last bits of the move yesterday, so hoping to catch up this week & the next as we get furniture and set up the new place.

[XxFellsingxX]

I'll wait for at least one more person to respond before I put anything else, though I will take this moment to clear something up, because Stargaze's comment about 'Vipereyes picking fight with the older dragons' actually got me thinking.

Vipereyes, Garrock and Fogdance are all in the Bearded Dragon age bracket. I've already established that Garrock is Pretty Old(TM) given I've mentioned he's not far from becoming an Elder Dragon... but funnily enough, Vipereyes is probably not that much younger than him (though Stargaze would be forgiven for thinking otherwise, given I imagine Vipereyes wears her age a little more gracefully).

Fogdance is on the younger end of the Bearded Dragon age bracket... or at least she was, until magical aging shenanigans occurred. Due to the ceremony, she's actually catching up to them a bit, though still physically younger. Fogdance is also probably wiser and more emotionally mature than both of them, at least in my opinion.

Just a fun character fact that I thought I'd throw in since I realise I haven't really specified Vipereyes and Fogdance's ages.

@XxFellsingxX

Thank you! I wasn't sure about the ages, and I figured Vipereyes might be at least a little younger when I wrote my post. ^^"

@Guardian Angel Haruki

That's a fair assumption, given how she acts xD

[Vertigo]

Man, the scene was awesome, coming up with follow up questions was hard. I've a bunch of small ones I'd like to ask, or ones that boil down to "would she know about this". Lmk if these don't work, I've backup ones:

- What did Greeny want out of the talk with Brume, if killing her wasn't the goal? To convince her of something? Would Fellwing have been able to pry into the objective, considering she did sense some of Greeny's emotions?
- What island does the vision take place in? Would the alpine forest give her a clue/would she have been able to try and pinpoint some landmarks (like mountains etc.) while in the vision?

Oh and one of those "would she know" questions that isn't really a follow up question-- what, if any, would she know about unicorns/bicorns, and are the latter normally a thing?

Was going to work on a post but realized I need to ask these first, oops. I can get a post up next week though!

@Vertigo

No, those are perfectly good questions!

1. Greeny's goal was to try and convince Brume to join her and Bicorn's cause, not just because Brume was an old friend but specifically because Brume was a elemental, and a very powerful one at that. Greeny seems to hold elementals, and nature in general, in high esteem.

2. This vision takes place in the very northern part of Yves. You've probably never been there yourself, because Kebros' strongholds tend to be in warmer climates, but you know that Greeny's been there plenty of times, and you're able to recognise it through her knowledge.

3. Unicorns... are something you've only heard of in fairy tales. They are a very ancient race of fae that are supposedly meant to have gone extinct before the Great Houses were even formed, so there's never been any reports of one being on the Isles ever. They were hunted by the ancient dragons for their horns, which have great magical properties particularly in the arts of healing and purification. You've never heard of a Bicorn before.

*boop*

*boop*

@XxFellsingxX

I don't have anything left to add to this scene. Skobeloff's retreated into himself for the time being over the impact that the ritual he suggested had on Fogdance.

[Guardian Angel Haruki]

I can't really double post. ^^"
So...Boop!

[rush99999]

And Vertigo's been offline for the past three days.
So on her behalf... boop.

[XxFellsingxX]

Well, I'll wait a little longer then. Worst comes to worst, I just have the NPCs respond to Stargaze.

[XxFellsingxX]

Alright, if by the end of the weekend, Vertigo hasn't responded, I'll put up a post. Depending on your responses to my next post, we might be moving on to the Capitol soon after that. I hope this will give them time to catch up.

A lot of stuff is going to be happening once we reach the Capitol and I want everyone to be able to have a chance to react and act to the various things you may encounter.
