How Deep Will You go? [Faelin Kanin RP!]

[timbergray]

timbergray shrugged.  They're just big and sometimes dangerous mountain animals from my world.  Are you even up for walking?  Or magicking?

[Tribbler]

Sage gave a smile and a nod, "Yup, I'm fine and dandy!" not really but they didn't need to know that, he kept smiling, "So which way do you guys want to travel?"

[timbergray]

Timbergray gave Sage a skeptical look.  Which way would be easier on you?

[Tribbler]

Sage looked over at timber and smiled warmly, "No way is necessarily easier than others."

[timbergray]

Timber shrugged.  Well, if it's all the same to you, I'd rather walk.  Magic is awesome, but it makes me a little uneasy to have it used for everything. 

[SkySong]

(Sorry - I've noticed a few discrepancies in my posts after I post them, but it feels weird to change them, so I'm not going to bother.)

Kazaal shrugged - he tended to do that a lot, it was easier than speaking - and looked up at the mountain. He was much more used to walking, and he had a strange feeling that teleporting might make his stomach uneasy. Besides, the dude had just been bitten by a shark, and had to have lost some blood. If they were walking, it would be easier for the three adventurers to help him if something happened than if he teleported them and overdid it.

[Victoria]

Roxy didnt care how they took the journey even tho walking was more dangerous to her it meant seeing more of the world so she said "we should just walk"

[Tribbler]

(No worries SkySong! Was just letting you know! <3)


Sage gave a nod, "Walking it is then!" he smiled as he turned motioning a hand over his shoulder to follow. "We'll go by the waterfall, unless you'd rather climb over it?" he smiled softly, leading the way as he kept glancing back at the group, while taking more care about what was around them.

After a good while of travel along the lake, they reached a heavier wooded area the rumble of the falls could be heard near by. Pausing at a particular spot he smiled, and turned, he'd get a rest and they'd have some fun, so why not?

"A couple of you have Whooems... But would any of you be interested in a Whooen?" he asked smiling gently.

[Victoria]

"A whooen?" Roxy question. "What is that?" "Is it another bird type creature?"

[Tribbler]

Sage nodded smiling, "It's the cousin to the whooem." he chuckled, "But you have to have an Owl trophy to own them, they're more ornery and can be...bitey."

[timbergray]

Timbergray smiled.  Absolutely!  I love just about anything with wings!  Also, the necktie looks good on you.

[Tribbler]

Sage lifted the tie and chuckled softly, "Yea... Looked odd wearing the collar without it.." he wasn't a fan of ties... He looked up and smiled warmly, "Anyone else want to go for a trophy to own the whooens?"

[Victoria]

"I would" Roxy said raising her hand.

[timbergray]

I would! timbergray agreed eagerly.

[SkySong]

Kazaal nodded with his signature shrug. There wasn't anything specifically he was against doing, anyways.

[Tribbler]

Sage smiled and clapped his hands, brush moving away to reveal a small shack/hut thing. He smiled, "All you need to do is tell the building you wish to take the trial, your trial will be given to you and you must complete it to get a trophy."

Sage smiled, moving to sit on a large rock, "well go on, you must each do your own trial goal, but I don't think there is a rule against helping each other, but each must do the completing part on their given task." He couldn't help at all, as he was a magical being.

[timbergray]

Timbergray gives Sage a slightly confused look and approaches the building cautiously. Umm, I wish to take the trial?

[Victoria]

Roxy went second walking up to the building and asked "May i take the trial oh great and powerful building" she was skeptical asking a building for a trial so she can win a trophy .

[SkySong]

Kazaal snorted at Roxy's rhetoric, before glancing at the building himself. It seemed extremely strange to ask a building a question, but all the little gimmicks Sage had pulled thus far had worked, so he slowly approached the building. "May I take the trial?" He asked hesitantly, feeling distinctly awkward asking a building. He looked vaguely at the door as if posing the question to someone inside.

[Tribbler]

a Hazy image of the owl trophy appeared above the house, the old building rumbled shaking itself it seemed. Dust rolled off the sides as it seemed to stretch itself.

An old voice spoke, "Do you dare do it alone....or as a group?" was asked before the house was once again still.

[timbergray]

Timbergray glanced around at the group. I'm not well equipped for trials in a magical world on my own.  Would you all be willing to go with me?

[SkySong]

Kazaal nearly stepped forward to go it alone, seeing as he seemed best equipped and he felt that the others would slow him down. Only an ingrained sense of caution for jumping without looking stopped him. "What difference does it make?" He asked, feeling slightly more reassured in his place in the world after the building talked back. He considered that thought briefly and cast it away lest it made him unstable with the knowledge that a talking building was reassuring.

[Tribbler]

The house seemed to shudder... "When together, the trials will be harder. But assistance is permitted... Going alone, the Trial will be at times easier, but no assistance is granted, getting help will result in a failure to complete your trial."

[Victoria]

Roxy felt as if going in a group would be better as the saying goes "two heads are better than one." "I wanna do this together, being alone is no fun" Roxy said.

[Tribbler]

The house gave a shudder, "Who shall Join Victoria?" They didn't both have to. Neither had to. Didn't change Victoria's wish to go as a team however, so its question was still valid, right? It was just a house though, so eh.

[SkySong]

Kazaal thought about the words for a few moments before deciding. "I'm going on my own then. I trust the equipment I have on me is acceptable?" He asked, now dismissing all those around him in favor of the upcoming task. He was never one to back away from a challenge, after all.

(I've noticed I start everything with Kazaal. -_- It's annoying me. Woops. And he has on him his bow, a quiver full of arrows (Does 15 work? Idk how much is a good average), a spare bow string, the pins in his hair - which aren't particularly sharp, but are thin and possibly helpful in something - and a couple hunting knives. Also I suppose he has his hair ties. No food, small water skin. Idk if it matters or not, just putting it out there.)

[Tribbler]

The house stretched the walls seeming to expand once more. A quivering came from the boards a a door seemed to appear, "If you accept your Trial....Step through the door Kazaal." How did it know his name was left for all to wonder.
"The task before you is to reach the golden owl in the center room. You will know when you reach it."

[Tribbler]

(humm quiet it is... Everyone okay or are there questions?)

[SkySong]

(Sorry! I am currently in the midst of finals. Have lots of studying that's keeping me a little less active. I should be on after Friday.)

[timbergray]

(You know what's been keeping me busy.  )


Timbergray looked back to Roxy and nodded.  I think we're going to go together.  It's more fun as a group.  So, I'll go with Roxy (Victoria) if she'll have me.

[Victoria]

"Yay!" Roxy cheered "Let's win that trophy." Roxy walked up to the building and waited for its response.

[Tribbler]

(No worries skySong! Just had me worried that it just went silent XD)


The house rumbled, and instead of a door, the ground just opened up below timbergray and Victoria, dropping down on a lower level. There were two doors, in a "Y" angle... "The door to the left, or the door to the right is yours to decide. Through the maze you must go. At the end two of gold awaits you"

[timbergray]

Timbergray glanced at Roxy.  Did we just get dumped?  By a house?  She smiled once to show she was kidding.  Not used to houses having a maze in their basement, nor an outdoor entrance, but oh well.  I say we go right, if it's a simply-connected maze, we'll find out way out by always going right.  But which way do you want to go?

[Victoria]

Agreeing with timber Roxy chose right. "Right sounds good lets go!"

[Tribbler]

Taking the door on the right, the two of you head in together, only to find it's a dark room. It's hard to see anything.

(This is all Role-play responses, No pre-set ones, so describe what you do to go about getting through the room--if anything is in your way I will let you know when/if you get to it)

[Victoria]

Roxy stumbles un the dark and trips over what she thinks to be a stick so che grabs it and tries to create a fire so they can see where they are at.

[timbergray]

Timbergray followed Roxy into the room, nearly tripping over her when she trips. 
Ugh, why does it have to be so dark!  As if in response, timber's necklace starts to glow faintly.  She pauses and looks down at it.  Oh, sure, now you show up.  She grumbles to herself. 
She looks over to where she can faintly see the outline of Roxy from the pendent's glow.  I suppose this might be a totally awkward time to mention the poltergeist that tends to follow me around.  Sometimes if I ask for things, he'll find a way to get them to me.  She takes a deep breath and speaks clearly and loudly, What we really need is a good source of light!  That would be very helpful in this place! 
More confident that they'll find something sooner rather than later now, timber walks confidently deeper into the dark room.

[Tribbler]

The 'stick' Victoria had grabbed was really a stone shaped like a walking stick, only visible now with the glow with timbergray's necklace. After a moment the house seemed to groan and tremble for a moment as if struggling against something, but moments later the room lit up. revealing everything inside was stone. The only non-smooth object that was in the room was the stone-walking-stick that Victoria now held. It must be a puzzle of some sort for you to figure out...

[timbergray]

Timbergray looks over at the stick.  Do you suppose we use it to move things, or rotate the room or something?

[Victoria]

Roxy looked at Timber "I have no idea, lets just try moving things around and seeing what happens"

[Tribbler]

Starting to explore the room, you soon find 3 notches in the floor near one wall, that looks like the base of your new stone-walking stick will fit into. There are no symbols, only the three holes.

[SkySong]

Kazaal stepped through the door, not knowing what to expect. This world seemed to make very little sense at times to him, and this seemed like this would be one of those times. Still, he couldn't help but question how everything knew his name. The canine creatures Sage explained knew his name, and now this building, what should have been an inanimate object but wasn't, also knew his name. Ridding himself of this irksome thought, he glanced about the room.

[timbergray]

Timbergray examined the holes cluelessly.  Uh, I guess we put the stick in one of these and see if it can move?

[Tribbler]

The door Kazaal entered slammed shut behind him, not permitting him to leave--at least through that way. After a few moments lights went from dim to brighter illuminating a fairly empty room. There were a few different doors, each having some sort of symbol on them. One was a Leaf, another a Feather, another had a flame, and then a last one looked like a fish...

[SkySong]

For one, Kazaal didn't jump at the door closing behind him. It seemed to be par for the course, and was probably the only thing he could predict happening in this alien place. Instead of leaping forward, he observed the room. It seemed, bar the obvious doors, seamless. After the room was scrutinized to his satisfaction, the hunter turned his attention to the doors. The flame immediately brought an image of a fiery death, and while he had no actual conformation that the images on the door related to the content behind him, he immediately discarded the flame as a choice. The fish was the next to be eliminated as the shark encounter was still fresh in his mind. Considering the two remaining doors, he eventually decided on the leaf. The feather held perhaps a bird of some sort which he had to get past, but hopefully the leaf represented a forest; scenery which he found himself most comfortable. With a slight edginess that faltered his usual grace, Kazaal reached for the door with the Leaf.

[Victoria]

Roxy looked at the notches and grab the stine like stick and tried to put the stick in one of the notches. She stuck the stick in and waited for something to happen, preparing herself for the worst.

[Tribbler]

SkySong
The door opened with a shove. What gave resistance was the vines growing around it. Kazaal had been right to assume each doors markings resembled what laid behind them. But here in what could easily be described as a jungle back on earth laid ahead of Kazaal. Getting through would probably be no easy task...

timbergray & Victoria
(Can you specify which of the three holes you wish to stick it in?)

[Victoria]

(The first one)

[Tribbler]

timbergray & Victoria
The hole seemed to make a grinding clunk sound, then the next thing you knew the floor was moving. Two spaces to the right. In front of you a door appeared, but vanished during the second turn!

[timbergray]

timbergray takes the stick and tries the second hole!
