Tur sort of growled under her breath regarding the arrow in the floor.

"Heh, sorry guys," she said, scratching the back of her head, "False alarm. "

She then looked a little more closely at the dirt where the arrow had stuck. Although the arrow had disturbed it, it looked like there were tracks leading off east. Then, though, right before her eyes even the tracks disappeared as if she was just imagining things.

(OOC: I sent Pops an email. Hopefully he'll respond.

Also, it confuses me that Molo was actually more available on AIM when he was in Japan than he is now that he's just on the other side of the country from me.)

"Right then. Shall we, my dear?" Jagen offered Arenda his elbow in a stately manner, as if he was taking her to a formal ball rather than into a forest inhabited with terrible monsters. "We'll meet you guys back here in like an hour and a half. Don't go out too far, or you might get lost. If there's a group that's not back in two hours, send a search party."

"Come on, Wisp," she said while dragging the girl along behind her, "We're going east you guys scout in the other directions." She dragged Wisp along, following the rapidly disappearing trail. She also kept one hand near her quiver.

On Monday, January 17, 2005, at 9:00 PM Eastern Standard Time, there will be Elemaer RP. Go into RPGWW Chat on AIM at about this time for details. I COMMAND IT!

...this is by no means compulsory, but it looks like it's gonna be fun. So far I've got me, Capntastic/Zero, Trixer (the other Elemaer admin, who isn't on RPGWW - Avry'l got in a fight with his character the last time we did one of these) and Thram.

Jagen and Arenda strolled a little ways, back toward the beach and west, then Jagen ended the formality joke by pulling his shortbow out of his quiver and beginning to string it up. "What's the best way to cover the most ground in an hour and a half, d'you think?" he asked, nocking an arrow to the string and pulling it experimentally.

(OOC: Fun English Language Fact: "nocking" is not a typographical error, that's actually how you spell it when it pertains to fitting an arrow to a bowstring. Look it up.)

(EDIT: Oops. Didn't realize that Tur and Wisp were already going east. We're going west now.)

"Aside from not getting lost, I'd say our goal should be to find out just how safe this place is," Arenda replied. "We don't need to memorize too many details about the area yet. We just need to focus on moving quickly and quietly and keep an eye out for any dangerous monsters or anything that a dangerous monster could be living in."

Jagen nodded. "True. Although, really, half of this forest is 'anything that a dangerous monster could be living in'. Just keep your hand on a weapon and your tongue on a spell, as they say."

Indeed, the forest was denser where Jagen and Arenda were than it was around the swath cleared by the ministrations of Avry'l's scythe.

Avry'l and Vas noticed the forest thinning out a bit as they moved north, toward the center of the island. It also became easier and easier to navigate, because they found a crude, natural-looking trail to use. It didn't look unused, either - the dirt was pretty packed, as though something heavy (or several somethings) used it often.

As Tur'nasus and Wispuna continued their eastward journey, the faint tracks they were following suddenly ceased, right next to a tree. The tree was tall and had many branches, none of which, at a glance, seemed to be occupied at the moment.

"Hmm, by the look of it, whatever made this trail had to be pretty big to pack the dirt down so much. That, or it is a very, very old trail." Vas looked over at Avry'l.

"What do you think?"

Tur took a gander at the tree in front of her and smacked it with the butt of her hand soundly. She watched and waited to see if anything stirred. She also kept a finger on her arrow, ready to shoot the next thing that popped out at her.

Tur'nasus' strike brought about some movement in the top of the tree, and a sleek, brown-colored blur darted to the end of a branch and jumped, landing behind the girls. It was about three feet long, and the body shape looked rather like that of a rodent with six legs, heavily clawed. It had no fur, but instead a rubbery skin like a shark's, colored the same brown as the tress. The head was small, streamlined, and earless, with a wide mouth and two emerald-green spheres for eyes. Tur'nasus, having had some experience with monsters on other expeditions, recognized it as a Tiziat. She also remembered it as a pack animal...

"Yes. . ." Avry'l spoke, placing his pointer finger lightly on his lip thoughtfully. ". . .it seems as if there are definitely other things on this island besides us. The trail is proof of that."

A small grin appeared on his face, and he looked to Vas. "Let us speed up." he said. "I can hardly hold my excitement about meeting the island's inhabitants."

Tur quickly shot an arrow at the beast's neck. As she did this, she said, "Wisp, get ready to fight. These things run around in packs, which means that there are definitely going to be more coming."

After the attack, Tur also cast a lightning bolt into the sky, hoping to attract the other's attention.

(OOC: Okay, Spleen has empowered me with the ability to create the monsters, so I thought it might be nice to put this here. Monsters are ranked in a large book called, quite simply, The Bestiary. Now, the ranks are 1-5. A monster at a specific rank has about the same amount of strength and skill as a member of an order of that ranking divided by two. So, a level one monster would be a little weaker than an initiate, and a level two would be about the same strength as an initiate. A level three is stronger than an initiate, but weaker than a second rank member. A level four monster would be about the same as a second rank member, etc etc.
This animal that just popped out will have to be added to my list, and so I'll make it a level four. One more thing. Monsters that run around in packs and groups, like those of lower ranks, are usually led by a leader monster, who is usually one rank higher than the average version. They also have some kind of distinguishing mark, like a large plumy headdress, or a chest marking.)

"Alright." Vas said as he grinned. He loved running.

"Let's g-" Vas was cut off as he saw lightning flash into the sky. "Oh damn!" Vas, knowing Avry'l would be right with him, drew out his double short-spears and bolted in the direction of the lightning bolt, but still looking around to make sure he didn't get ambushed.

"Hm." Avry'l said, watching Vas run off, his smile growing wider. "How convenient."

With that, he began in the sort-of opposite direction from Vas, following the trail and heading deeper into the forest.

As Vas was running, he looked behind him, and practically skidded to a halt when he didn't see Avry'l.

Curse him, now is not the time for his childish antics! People need our help! He ran back the other way, having only been sprinting for a few moments, and caught sight of Avry'l just as he was deciding which way to go.

"Avry'l, what are you doing?! That lightning bolt means that someone needs the entire party! We can explore our path later!"

"Exactly." Avry'l said, frowning at the the fact that Vas noticed he was trying to get away. "That's why you shouldn't have stopped, and kept going to save them. I'm not good at that stuff. I tend to be clumsy at remembering which people are my allies and which are my enemies."

Jagen spun into a crouch when he heard the explosion. Then he remembered. "That's the signal!" he exclaimed, looking over his shoulder at Arenda. "Someone needs our help - by the look of it, I think it's Wispuna and Tur. Come on!"

"Hmph." Avry'l frowned. His fingers rapped lightly on the hilt of his scythe for a moment, as if he was considering whether to push the issue further. . .

"Let us be off, then." he said at last, falling in line behind Vas, his face one of extreme annoyance.

Vas felt a little odd as he and Avry'l set off towards the others. What the hell? he thought. He wasn't used to snapping at people; his usual attitude was one of subservience almost. Something about Avry'l wanting to go off alone and put himself in dange when others already needed them just irked them. As they were running, Vas glanced over for a second.

"Hey Avry'l, sorry for snapping mate."

"No need for that." Avry'l said, putting up a hand quickly to stop Vas. "I was out of line."

The hand also doubled as a mask, to cover the sadistic grin that was developing over his face as they continued moving. . .

"Oh Gods," Wisp said as her hands tightened against around her staff. Her mind was racing with so many spells, she was having a difficult time finding one. Not wanting to wait to long she cast the only thing she could.

"WInd," She said pointing her staff at the beast.

(Ok I do not know any spells of the order. . .sorry but I thought I could use a basic one until I can get some info.)

The monster took Tur'nasus' arrow in the shoulder, and gave a strange-sounding hiss. At once, five more leapt from the foliage and took positions around their wounded comerade. Suddenly, one spun and leapt straight for Wisp, aiming for her leg.

A quarter of a kilometer west, Jagen called to Arenda. "You run. I've got a better idea." He began to chant, and soon felt himself grow lighter. Then he began to rise - slowly at first, then faster as he cleared the more dangerous branches. Soon he broke out from the top of the trees and sped through the air to where he thought the sound came from.

...and Jagen wasn't the only one who heard the spell's report - three unknown warriors navigated the forest to investigate.

(OOC: I know, I know, it's been a while since I made a big post. I'm sorry.)

Jagen, having decided to fly, reached the battle first. He drifted to the ground as he let fly an arrow at one of the Tiziats. He turned to Tur'nasus. "Are you girls okay?"

As he was saying this, a Tiziat jumped out from nowhere (actually, the cover of a small bush, but Jagen didn't know that) and sunk its jaws into his side. Most of the uneven but razorsharp teeth were stopped by Jagen's chainmail shirt, but a few went through and into skin, and one found its way between two of the Wind Guide's ribs. Jagen screamed in pain as he pulled an arrow out of his quiver and buried it in the creature's neck, missing the jugular vein by an inch. He gasped as the jaws tightened, then screamed in anger as he tried again with the arrow. This time, cool purple-grey monster blood welled out from the wound and Jagen was able to pry the jaws out of his side. He looked up just in time to see...

"Wispuna!" he yelled, "Monsters behind you!" Two, in fact.

This shout was, by the way, the first sound Arenda heard when she reached them, the first sight being a bolt of blue lightning grounding itself in a tree, thanks to Jagen's aim being slightly off. And Avry'l and Vas, breaking through from the north, saw Jagen, teeth clenched in pain from the wound, do a half-turn and skewer a monster through the shoulder.
