Beastland wanderings

[Anastasia]

It's a new awakening. You feel alive once more, renewed and restored. New horizons seem to open in your mind as you become more all at once. It is pure, sweet and overwhelming power. A new you, a new self, so much more deep within your soul.

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa takes a moment to feel her new power out, feel the weight and expanse of it.

"Amazing..."

[Anastasia]

"There really are no words," Jarem finally says himself, "It's like sticking your hand into the heart of a storm."

Bastian takes a long breath before, "I always thought it couldn't live up to what Emily said. I was wrong."

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa nods, "We'll all need a few days to feel things out again. Besides that... We need rest, we've all been busy. Let's head back to the tower and get ourselves sorted. You'll need to offer greetings to our host, as well. And.. I hope our host doesn't take issue to our quick rise."

[Anastasia]

"Do you need my help with that?" Jessica asks, "Otherwise, I'll see to that gold while the rest of you recover and deal with that."

[Iron Dragoon]

"I hope not. If Selune is that angry about it, I can't imagine much is going to derail it."

[Anastasia]

Heading on back then?

[Iron Dragoon]

Yup

[Anastasia]

Your loot post for this adventure is updated with the gold, so go ahead and see to appraising and sorting.

You return home a second time made anew. Or is it a third time now. You feel as if the realm is at your fingertips when you catch sight of your home, fingertips itching and everything seeming oh so alive to you. Alive like it never was before, ready to obey.

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa revels in the feeling for a moment before turning to the others, "I'll come talk to you all later. I'm going to see my family."

[Anastasia]

"Alright," Jarem says, "I have things to do, too."

"As do I," Bastian seconds.

Dolmaya looks on in quiet amusement while Emily just adds, "Go to them, it's good you value them so highly."

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa nods and points at Dolmaya, "We're going to have to discuss the proxy thing soon."

With that, she heads out to find her family!

[Anastasia]

Perhaps it's your will, perhaps it's fortune. But you find Alihana outside, hands on her hips. She overlooks men working, hauling stone blocks to build a building. It's just begun, but it's a bigger one on the looks of it.

"Keep going," she calls, "Third one over there, go. Nice and smooth, like that."

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa strides up next to and wraps an arm around her.

"Hi, sis. What's this?"

[Anastasia]

Alihana turns, "...Alyssa?" she whispers, eyes wide. The works stop to watch you, the noise of work becoming the stillness of silence.
