Fifth Adventure 04: The Choice

Zeiss turns rapidly towards Tabran.

"Three weeks? What do you mean three weeks?"

Cal to Rory, "Just remember that no matter what happens during are adventure, no matter how dark it may become or what becomes of us, all you will even need is here" Cal touches Rory’s chest in front of his heart.

"Well, at least we are still in Aluvia." He wants to take off his hat and mess with his hair but the lycele is still in his hands so he just stands there and looks worried.

*the elven boy munches happily on chocolate getting it all over himself and Z, though to your knowledge Z does not seem to care.*

"well like i said when we were in there we saw the moon go thou 3 phases that would mean that it has been about 3 weeks more or less or it may be the morning that we went in? was it not the same for you in your trial?"

*Z walks around letting the boy munch happily on chocolate. Handing him a small mug of water when he asks.*

Rory looks at Cal with an incredulously quizzical expression on his face, skipping a beat before he brushes Cal's hand away from his chest. "Gee, that's so sweet," he says with a rye smirk on his face. "I bet you say that to all the boys."

Zeiss answers to Tabran.

"No, it wasn't. We were in some kind of room with grass and flowers. There was a ceiling. Now, if it has been three weeks..."

He thinks a little, then pulls the piece of copper from his pocket.

"Executor Gremlock. Templar of the 113th Adjunct here. Please respond."

Z:
After some extensive searching you realize you recognize some of the nearby hill crests, which in the far distance seem to be leading towards what might be the ocean. You believe you are near the eastern coast of Aluvia.

Zeiss:
The coin returns a strange static sound continuously until you turn it off.

*Z stalks off toward the East without saying anything. You get the feeling they spotted something familiar on the horizon.*

Rory:
Having recovered from your emotional outburst you rise and see something odd on the opposing side of the hill, only somewhat visible from here.

"Great, still no answer... maybe he's not available."

Zeiss shakes his head. Then goes towards Rory who spotted something.

Rory begins to squint, and stare at the horizon in the direction of the opposite side of the hill intently. A moment passes before he begins to walk closer to the other side of the hill, keeping his eye fixed on the horizon.

*Z turns back an shakes their head at Zeiss.*

"what part of communication blackout don't you get."

"Where are you going, Z? Do you see something?"

Rory:
As you get closer, to your surprise you notice your wagon, and several familiar horses, are standing near the base of the back of the hill, the horses grazing idly on the yellow-green grass.

Zeiss still follows Rory but could hear Z's comment. Like they always do when he asked them a question, he simply stares, still walking.

Then focus his attention on Rory.

*Z nods their head in an Easternly direction*

"The Coast."

Rory raises his axe and continues to trot closer, clearly wary.

"Well duh! I thought you saw something more specific. Yeesh, flighty mystery persons."

Rory:
The wagon appears to be as it was, though of course if there were any magical means of trapping or bugging it they are probably beyond your ability to detect.

He gets close to Rory and also see the wagon.

"What the... frell."

He goes past Rory, in a hurry, to look for his horse. And his fridge.

Spoiler:

Tab climbs to the top of the Hill for a better View

Spoiler:

Rory presently inspects his surroundings, and realizes that they were no longer where they had entered the catacombs. "Where are we...and how did the horses--why is it bright out all of a sudden?"
