Family Reunion

[Anastasia]

Thus you all pass through.

In an instant you are amid the knight sky, countless twinkling stars glittering here. Each of you radiates a gentle white glow, like the faraway light of the stars. "Oh!" Emily says, "Just relax and let yourself go down, like a falling star," Emily says.

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa does so, enjoying it.

[Anastasia]

"Down," Jarem murmurs as you all begin to descend. White light and warmth surrounds you, a tail of radiance left in your wakes.

Ianvasah throws her head back and laughs, "We are the comets in the skies!"

"I know! Enjoy it!" Emily calls over the wooshing of the winds, as you fall faster and faster, plummeting down in the darkness, towards far below ground.

[Iron Dragoon]

"Was it worth joining us, Ianvasah?"

[Anastasia]

Ianvasah's answer is a deep, wild laugh. A laugh of joy, as she descends from the sky with the rest of the party.

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa relaxes and floats.

[Anastasia]

Down and down you go, faster and faster! Jarem lets out a woop of sheer joy as you race down. Emily laughs, "Faster! Faster!" she cries, flames erupting around you - and yet you land perfectly, not the slightest jarring. You appear in a courtyard of a seemingly endless palace. Roses grow all about, vibrant red all about the party.

[Iron Dragoon]

"Well, that was certainly an excellent entrance to a beautiful place. I've never had such an experience."

[Anastasia]

Emily dusts her shoulders off and says, "It's amazing. That's one of my favorites."

Jarem's smiling at that, "Yeah, that was special. I've been on dragonback when one swooped down and it's like that. It takes your breath away, or if you've ever fallen off a high cliff or a mountain."

Ianvasah keeps on laughing, smiling widely as she looks around at the overgrowth of roses.

[Iron Dragoon]

"Well, Ianvasah here can turn into a dragon. Maybe she'll let you have a ride."

Alyssa grins toothily at Jarem, but looks around the area to see where to go next.

[Anastasia]

Ianvasah's gaze cools down at that, while Jarem just returns that smile.

There's a rose covered archway leading to a door to your right. Roses do not cover the door, thankfully.

There's a winding path leading deeper into the courtyard and into the roses.

Emily clears her throat, "The Court can be maze like at times - it's as big as Queen Morwel wills it to be so. There's a large core that stays the same once you reach it, but many of the connecting areas and outlying parts can change from visit to visit."

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa nods. "I'll leave this to wandering, as usual. Shaundakul will walk with us."

[Anastasia]

It does mean choosing a path though, Iddy.

[Iron Dragoon]

I figured you'd call for a coin flip or something.

Alyssa chooses.... The courtyard!

[Anastasia]

d100, then.
