Liao nods at Phil.  "He's building character," he confides to Jade.  "That's what dad says when I do that."  More loudly, he says, "I'll climb a tree and see if I can find any landmarks around.  Or a clear area, where I can teleport us easily."  Liao begins looking around for a suitable climbing tree.  Preferably one where he won't land on Phil if he falls.

"Building Character?  What?"  Jade blinked.  "Wait, when you do that?  As in, you do that alot?"

Damn it, now she had a headache as well as a bruised chest.

"You... just go scout." Jade sat back against a tree.  "I'll just be sitting here waiting."

So she started waiting for Liao to finish scouting, while trying to come up with a way to get rid of the killer pain in her stomach.

There were a few and scampering up one, Liao quickly ascertained...

He had no idea where they were, but boy that was a pretty sunset happening.  He really had the best view for it too.

Dracos
Well, Goodbye.

Brian

After admiring the sunset for a moment, Liao quickly forces his mind back on track.  He doesn't want to climb down the tree in the dark, so that means he doesn't have much time.  After trying to locate a clearing from his treetop, Liao scrambles down the trunk of the tree he'd scaled.

He did not, in fact, spot a clearing as he scampered down, back to Jade and the others.

Dracos
Well, Goodbye.

Phil groaned as he finally came to, rubbing at the lovely goose-egg forming on his forehead.

"What happened?" he mumbles, still a bit dazed.
I am a terrible person.
Excellent Youkai.

"We got lost," Liao offers, falling the last few feet and dangling from the tree-branch by his ankles again, just above the ground.  "But don't worry!  I know where we are.  It's a forest."

After dropping to the ground, Liao frowns.  "That may not actually help that much," he muses slowly.  "Well, no worries!  The desert sky is really clear, so I bet I can find my way by the stars!"  Liao has never actually tried this, but it sounds fun, so why not try it?  Nevermind the fact that this place isn't a desert.

Jade looks up at the sky then back at Liao.  "You... do realize that this isn't a desert, and the trees should make it hard to see the sky at times, right?"

Liao snorts.  "Shows what you know," he grumps, pouting.  "I wasn't aware of that at all!"  He blinks, frowning, and turns to Phil.  "Do you have any ideas?"

Phil shakes his head a bit, still trying to clear the cobwebs out of his head. "Getting an idea of where we are is probably a good idea. Think you can climb one of these trees, Liao?"

Brian

"Maybe," Liao says, looking at the tree he just climbed down from.  "What should I look for?"

"Lights - like anything glowing on the ground. Cities or towns usually give off a lot of light at night - that's why I always went up into the mountains when I wanted to see the stars really well. If you can see anything like a glow, it's probably a town, and that'll tell us where we are."

Liao sighs internally.  "That makes sense," he says.  "I'll climb up now, even though all the stars aren't out yet."  He starts climbing the tree, squinting in the dwindling light to make out a handhold, and working cautiously to check his footing between steps.  "Can you maybe get a light?" he calls down.  "That might help us move around easier."

OOC: >_>;  So much for a light.
IC:
Liao finds he has enough light to climb by and can get up, though he doesn't see any brightly shining city lights, he does think he sees something off to the north and the stars seem a bit dimmer to the east.

Dracos
Well, Goodbye.

Brian

Liao tries to commit these directions (and which way they are, relative to the base of the tree) to memory before working his way back down the tree in the darkness.
