Surraruthru's Tree (Surraruthru)

[Anastasia]

The party hurries away in good order, fleeing from it as the sense of power lessens. Once a ways away Simmer shudders, "That....did not like me," she manages to choke out.

[Iron Dragoon]

"No, I don't think it noticed your dryad nature before your fire nature. Any ideas, Pearwood?"

[Anastasia]

"Leave it alone," Pearwood says, "We don't need to pick a fight with it and get killed, we can find a portal to the next layer."

[Iron Dragoon]

"Wise. Simmer, do you need a bit to rest before we move on?"

[Anastasia]

"I'll....yeah, that's a good idea," Simmer slumps to knees, "Give me a few moments."

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru nods and makes his way to her, climbing into her lap and sitting regally, pulling on his innate magic and letting it flow into her.

[Anastasia]

On her lap when she's on her knees? That doesn't really work, though the gist about CSW is on target.

[Iron Dragoon]

Like clambering over her thigh type deal.

[Anastasia]

Healing magic winds through Simmer, enough to make her eyes close as she relaxes. "Thanks," she murmurs, "Bastard doesn't even appreciate a good fire."

[Iron Dragoon]

"You can settle your score some day if you want. Maybe develop a healing spell based on fire and watch him burn to health? For now, let's find our way to the goal."

[Anastasia]

Ready to move on then? If so make Spot real quick?

[Iron Dragoon]

> roll 1d20+36 Spot
<Serith> Iddy roll for Serith < 38 > [d20=2]

You proceed a little further along, perhaps 20 minutes. You come to a river, slicing through the terrain sharply. It's well over 100ft wide, waters moving at a fairly rapid clip. Pearwood goes to the bank and kneels down, placing his hand in the waters.

Simmer pointedly looks away and crosses her arms.

"This river flows towards the River Oceanus downstream and thus towards Krigala. If we follow it upstream, we may find a path to Karasuthra or merely the headwaters of it." Pearwood says.

"Well, that's better than we've been doing," Kascha perks up, "I say we follow the river upstream and see if it helps us."

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru eyes the stream, judging it's speed and depth to see if he can swim through it and keep up with the others.

"I agree."

[Anastasia]

"Can we all fly?" Pearwood asks all of you, "That would be the simplest way, rather than you all stumbling through the muddy and tangled river bank."

Kascha merely flaps her wings and turns her attention to Simmer.

"That's what teleportation's for," Simmer retorts, to which Kascha smiles, scoops her up and takes to the air. "Let's get going," she says, over Simmer's protest.
