We Are Our Avatars X (Closed, Ended)

[Silence]

Mathan Daer - Day 11 - 10:52

"That's very nice." Anik said happily. "I would ask you for a way to a store, but first, I have some other questions. One, maybe a little bit odd one: Can flint be found in these mountains?
... and another odd one: Did you see some people come through here, who did not quite seem ... like they belong in this world?" With that, Anik recited the description of Robin and co. she had heard from Timea, maybe sounding a little odd because it was mainly memorized. Finally, she added Shara as well, but, not knowing a good description of her looks, first asking about an unhealthy skin, then about the amputated hand.

"Both, to some extent. Or something you're talented at."

"By being part of, or gaining permission from, the military."

[hr]

Mathan Daer - Day 11 - 10:53

"There is flint in the mountains, yes." the guard said, before pausing to think. After some time, he replied, "No, nobody like that has been through here."

 

[Silence]

Mathan Daer - Day 11 - 10:53

"Alright, fair enough." Anik said. "Now, can you tell me where the shrine of Faotar is around here? I want to ask the priests ... or how they are called ... a few more questions, as well." She scratched her head, then added:
"... Actually, now that I think about it, I don't suppose you know much about Faotar himself, right? Where he lives, exactly, for example."

Mathan Daer Area - Day 11 - 10:32​

"Okay, then. Good luck!"

Once Anik began walking to Mathan Daer, Timea began making her way to the woodland area between Femesh and Mathan Daer. She went on foot until she got the grogginess out of her system, then looked around to see if anyone could see her, and turned into a bird once she saw it wasn't the case, flying the rest of the way.

Northern Woodlands - Day 11 - 10:56​

Reaching the woodlands in 24 minutes after heading out from the campsite, Timea slowly flew overhead. After three minutes of this, Timea spotted a grizzly bear, and saw it was a mother with cub, this left them alone and continued her search. She saw nothing that would fill her stomach for a while, but after 22 minutes, and moving further south, came across a bull moose. It wasn't large enough that it would count as a feast, but it was enough to still her hunger.

Descending a little, Timea noted the trees would make it difficult to swoop down on the moose, and she didn't like her chances with trying to out-run the moose. Instead, she let out a shriek, intentionally alerting the moose, and causing it to run. Giving chase, while occasionally letting out another shriek to keep the moose on the run, Timea chased it out to a more open area, where she swept down on it.

[color=9f2089]"Well, I can see the future. That's certainly a talent. Anything related to that?"[/color]

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Vala, day 10, 6:22
"Yes, the time related abilities."

Vala - Day 10 - 06:21

"What your friend said. Slowing or maybe rewinding time." the guard said

[hr]

Mathan Daer - Day 11 - 10:53

The guard gave Anik directions to the Faotrine church in the city, then said, "Faotar lives in a cave system, in a nearby mountain."

 

[Silence]

Mathan Daer - Day 11 - 10:53

Anik thanked the guard for the directions. "A cave system? Huh ... this is unexpected. Actually, would I need climbing equipment to get to him? Or is there a road leading to his caves?" she asked, surprised, after he stated Faotars whereabouts. "Also, I just remembered a question about the ice around here. Is it slippery? Or ... I was in Vesh, there was this non-slippery ice, is it like that?"

 

[Drakmorg]

Vala - Day 10 - 06:22

[color=9f2089]"Hmm, alright. I can buy that."[/color] Cybil thought for a moment. [color=9f2089]"How would I even practice something like that if I wanted to though? Nobody back home had any such power, so I wouldn't even know where to start."[/color]

 

[ShindoL Shill]

Vala - Day 10 - 06:22

"I can't tell you that. Only someone with the same affinity could, really."

[hr]

Mathan Daer - Day 11 - 10:53

"You will need climbing equipment to get up there, and there is quite a bit of slippery ice in the mountains."

 

[Silence]

Mathan Daer - Day 11 - 10:53

"Alright, thanks." Anik said. "Well, I guess this is all I could ask you for now. Thank you very much, again," She bowed, then made her way into the city, first trying to find the Faotrine shrine.

11:00

After some seven minutes, occasionally stopping to smell the fruits, trying to figure out which kind was available, Anik arrived near the church of Faotar. Clicking to get a shape of the building, she went inside, again approaching the first person she sensed in the hope it would be the right one.

"Greetings." Anik said. "I had some questions about Faotar ... about visiting Faotar, in fact. Do you have a moment to answer my questions?"

 

[Drakmorg]

Vala - Day 10 - 06:23


[color=9f2089]"And there's none here because they're impossible to catch."[/color] Cybil sighed after speaking. [color=9f2089]"Then again, I might just be able to figure it out on my own, after a while."[/color]

"Self teaching is possible." Robin commented.

17:16
At this point, Quan Chi decided to go to plan B. He looked to Shara. "Be ready." he told her.

Vala - Day 10
You nod, drawing your blaster slowly under the cover of your cloak. You also put it to stun mode, seeing no reason to kill the guards outright.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

Vala - Day 10 - 06:22

"Not here, but in they do exist. You'd just have to find them." the guard replied.

[hr]

Mathan Daer - Day 11 - 11:00

When Anik entered the church, she would hear the sounds of blades being sharpened and, in a side room, people sparring. The priestess she had approached looked up, and said, "Certainly. What do you want to know?"

 

[Drakmorg]

Vala, day 10, 6:24

[color=9f2089]"Problem is we don't have any sky-metal, so I couldn't even try."[/color] Cybil sighed again. [color=9f2089]"I can't imagine they'd be anything short of extremely difficult to find though. Especially considering with how sorcery is still illegal here, we'd have to leave the country before just asking around is even an option."[/color] She said aloud to herself in response to the guard.

 

[Silence]

Mathan Daer - Day 11 - 11:00

"Well, like I said ... I want to visit Faotar. Or better, we want to, I have another guide, as well. Could you explain to me how we would get to him? I've already heard that he lives in caverns, and we would need to climb to them. How big is the entrance to these caverns? ... Is the way very dangerous? And ... can we only talk to him if we meet him? I've prayed to him before, but he only could answer through ... feelings, for lack of a better word." Anik explained, hoping she would not overwhelm the priestess with her questions.

Hearing the sound of blades, she wondered, and opted to ask about them after she had asked her more urgent questions.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Vala, day 10, 6:24
"They have to have sky metal here." Robin said to the guard, hoping the guard with prove him correct.

17:17
Quan Chi reached out to the guards, using his metal manipulation to pull them both towards him, trying to get them on their knees and hold them there so Shara could strike.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

Vala - Day 10 - 06:23

"Well, you're right, they'd be hard to find." the guard stated. She then looked at Robin and nodded. "There's some here, yes."

[hr]

17:17

Quan Chi successfully drew the guards away from their post, and got them to kneel down.

[hr]

Mathan Daer - Day 11 - 11:00

Anik would potentially identify most of the fruits as being berries, with a few citrus fruits and some apples and pears. The church building would be rectangular, with the right half being two floors high.

"The entrance is quite large. Larger than this building. The way up there is very dangerous, with some parts harder to traverse than others. And yes; most deities can only be spoken with in certain locations, from what I've heard."

 

[Silence]

Mathan Daer - Day 11 - 11:00

"Alright, thank you." Anik said, considering if she would even need climbing equipment if Timea could fly inside the caverns. "So ... I'll think of a way to get up there. Can you describe to me where it is, exactly? ... You can use descriptions for sighted people, I'll relay that to my guide.

Now, is there something you would recommend when speaking with Faotar? Things he does not like, and we should avoid, for example?" she added.
