Yggdrasil (Afina, Moore, Jaela)

[Ebiris]

"Then lets not give them what they expect," Afina suggests. "We still have the location of Lixer's fortress on the Deep Ethereal. Aurora could strike at that in force while a smaller group infiltrates Willah's stronghold to assassinate or capture her? Considering her great strength comes from inspiring her troops, denying her a grand army battle might be the best decision."

[Anastasia]

"Agreed," Ilsenine says, as the branch she holds flies out of her hand. It falls to the ground and sinks into it. From it four fruits sprout - a strawberry, an apple, a peach and a lemon.

[Ebiris]

Afina looks down at the fruits and then furrows her brow. Surely they're a blessing from Yggdrasil but what do the different fruits portend? Are they magical?

Taking 10 for 50 on spellcraft if they're magic fruits

[Anastasia]

They are indeed magical. If eaten by a fey, each fruit will strengthen them. Eating more fruits will result in each fruit after the first having less effect. Alternately, if you offer all four up instead of eating them...you aren't sure what will happen, but something will.

[Ebiris]

"The fruits will strengthen a fey who consumes them," Afina tells the three resident actual fey. "Alternatively they can be sacrificed for some other form of blessing, though I can't tell what form it would take. I leave the choice in your hands, Majesty," she bows to Ilsenine.

Ilsenine considers for a time, "Offer them up," she commands. "This would not be a choice provided lightly. We will see it out."

[Ebiris]

Afina dutifully leans over to pluck each fruit from its stem, kneeling down and holding them up towards the core of the World Tree where the city-sized branches in the distance grow ever thicker. "This blessing we have fairly won, we commend back to Yggdrasil in honour of Queen Titania and King Oberon, may their names be praised."

That sounds proper, doesn't it?

[Anastasia]

The fruits grow ripe and rot in a mere moments, before the seeds fly out to the Yggdrasil. The remaining flesh and skin turns to smoke, which wraps around each of you.

Each of you roll 1d100.

[Ebiris]

[19:53] <@Ebiris> roll 1d100
[19:53] <Rei-chan> Ebiris rolled : 1d100 --> [ 1d100=54 ]{54}

[Nephrite]

"Maybe this is why we were directed to come here...?" Moore asks aloud. "Otherwise, I..." He trails off, coming to a realization. "No... no, I understand why we needed to come here --" He's cut off by all the smoke, at that point.

[14:52] <Nephrite> roll 1d100
[14:52] <Rei-chan> Nephrite rolled : 1d100 --> [ 1d100=13 ]{13}

[Corwin]

[21:59] <Corwin> roll 1d100
[21:59] <Rei-chan> Corwin rolled : 1d100 --> [ 1d100=82 ]{82}

[Anastasia]

> roll 1d100 Crystal
<Rei-chan> Kotono rolled : 1d100 Crystal --> [ 1d100=34 ]{34}
> roll 1d100 Ilsenine
<Rei-chan> Kotono rolled : 1d100 Ilsenine --> [ 1d100=53 ]{53}

Afina feels her connection to nature grow. Like the old times for a moment, yet all is within her, as it is on the Prime. Secrets of natural lore are whispered into her ear, enlightenment following.

Afina, select two druid spells no higher than the highest level of spells you can cast. Add these to your sorcerer spells as bonus spells known. You cast them as arcane spells.

Moore recalls his connection to plants. The plants all over here, as close to him as his own breath.

Moore, you would normally gain Green Ear. However, since you have Music of the Gods, it's completely overshadowed. Instead, you gain a +1 bonus to inspire courage when inspiring creatures of the fey or plant types.

Jaela is swept away in a feeling of gentle nostalgia. Warmth fills her as she sees paths possibly walked and left behind, yet for a moment she walks them. A path of speed, agility and movement, a branch forgotten in favor of other choices.

Jaela gains +1 Dexterity.

For the sake of clarity, I'll mention here what the other two got. Ilsenine gets the same thing as Afina, but to her beguiler casting. Crystal gains fast healing 5.

[Nephrite]

Of course, he always did love nature. Something about a fondness for... bears?

He shakes his head and smiles a bit.

"Yes, I understand." He nods again, mostly to himself.

[Anastasia]

As sensations fill you, a portal appears. A portal to the swirling tides of Water, Aurora in the distance. Crystal slowly looks about, "I think we're being told it's time to go home," she says.

[Nephrite]

"Can you direct Tree back to Aurora when his time here is finished?" Moore calls out. He doesn't expect any kind of response, but it's the polite thing to do and ask.
