Limping return

[Anastasia]

Happy incoming 12000th post, by the way.

Up...up...up...up...into the forest, into the canopy and...!

Sunlight. You stand amid the tree tops. B efore you is a town, floors and decks of wood laid down to connect buildings in the tree tops. It stretches on in all directions. The buildings are painted a riot of colors, everything bright with color and sunshine. Here are elves, eladrin, fey and a hodge podge of other things, all going about in the familiar bustle of a city. Above it griffons fly with riders, joined by various winged creatures as well. The occasional building of clouds, crystal and fantasy hover in the sky above, blatantly ignoring gravity.

Take 10 for 65 on KP, do I have any idea where this is?

[Anastasia]

It looks like Skytown - you recall it being a planar hub, with portals to the Astral and a few other planes here. Traders often use it to venture into Arborea, or towards Arvandor or the Court of Stars.

It's basically a free city with minimal rule, so long as you aren't a complete ass. There's no formal mayor or anything like that, it's pretty frontier-esque.

[Nephrite]

"This looks like a place called Skytown. I think we can probably find a way to at the Court of Stars here." He says with a glance around.

may as well take a look around and see where we end up!

[Anastasia]

"We may," Xandra agrees, "We may not. At the least, we can find a little rest and a meal, if you need one."

[Nephrite]

Moore nods and proceeds forward!

Blame negative level tallying for the delay. It's not just Moore who has them right now. Scary!

You wander a little bit - and soon enough? "Archon!" A loud man calls from the side, a human with no nose, waving a wine bottle he takes a pull from. "You there!"

Xandra stops at this, turning and nodding slightly to him.

"Yes?" she says, approaching. He's coming from the side of a building, smiling warmly.

"Have a drink!" The human declares, "All archons should celebrate more. Heard the great news," the man says, pulling Xandra into a loose hug. "Congratulations!"

[Nephrite]

"Oh? What news is that, pray tell?" He asks.

[Anastasia]

"The light's shining bright, my friend," he calls to you as Xandra bears it with a slight smile. "Shining on dooooown on us! Shining on doooown bright!"

[Nephrite]

"It is worthy of celebration for sure!" Moore says. "Thanks for your hospitality!" He adds.

He makes a head motion to Xandra that they should keep moving.

[Anastasia]

It's not hard to get away from him, Xandra smiling despite it. "The light of Chronias reaches far. Just like every good deed and brave act, Moore."

[Nephrite]

"I know. You'd think people would know I'm not with Aurora anymore, though!" He says with a small laugh afterwards. "I guess I haven't made enough waves as a Celestian Duke yet."

[Anastasia]

"Stories take time to spread," Xandra says, "But they live a very long time."
