*with a low hiss crossed with a whistle, Mina steps back into the Orchard and surveys the territory. They were now "The Chosen" and had proven themselves beyond a doubt. But the adventure had just begun for all of them, as the quest still lies ahead. She stands and waits for them to appear, fangs still wet with blood from the latest "meal".*

Yoral steps forth, proud, but at the same time... cautiously looking at Mina's blooded face.
~I am here,~ she states and nods her head.
She sits about ten feet away from the larger and more carnivorous looking Tyshiri, flicking her tail about, causing the orbs to jangle.

Mostyn comes forth as well, gazing at Mina and blinking slightly at the blood, but undeterred all the same.
~I am here as well,~ he says, with a slight bow of his head. He then settles his wings against himself and waits, a small breeze ruffling his bright mane a bit.

...come into the orchard. Soren looks impatient as storm fiddles with something she's holding... suddenly there's a weird pop & the thing in her hands disintegrates with a very teensy weensy explosion... Soren deftly sidesteps the shrapnel but storm's face has been blackened in a very toony way as she blinks and coughs. »I'm here as well... though I can not speak for her.«  he nods towards the stunned storm still looking as though she's holding the small object she was tinkering with. |

*Mina's eyes glow brighter for a moment and then dim to a normal pitch as she begins to speak.*
~You have proven yourselves worthy of partaking in this quest through the trials. Know that your journey gets no easier from here. Some elders may have been sealed away in easy to reach places, others in not so readily accessable places. I can go no further with you as I cannot pass through the barriers, even with the orbs. I can still communicate with you however. Work as a team and your going shall be much easier.~
*She opens the portal to the first barrier.* (Note: You need at least 3 orbs to pass through this barrier.)

Soren looks at storm. she finally comes out of her stupor and adjusts her specs giving Soren a silent barely perceivable nod.
storm cleans her spectacles before focusing her eyes on the barrier ahead of them. she walks over to Soren and lays a hand solemnly on his shoulder...
"Soren... be careful ok? I know how bad you want to do this but just think everything through before you do something." she says quietly
he nods and gives her a brief rare show of affection and nuzzles her hair before stepping away. he waits to see what the others intend to do.

*steps forward cautiously, but with a definite determined air about herself*
~Soren...~ she calls to the Tyshiri ahead of herself, ~since Mina believes groupwork is best ahead, would you care to work with me?~
She glances back, but only for a brief moment. She does not know what to think of Mostyn...

Le'kiz aproaches at a steady trot, attracted by the group of others. Seeing the portal, and the apprehension on others' faces, he stops.
"Er... hello?" He tilts his head at the others.

Mostyn glances from the portal to the others, and back to the portal. He is unsure whether his help would be wanted; he hadn't much interaction with too many others of his kind. He shifted undecidedly, inching up very slightly, a step closer towards the portal.
Mostyn turns his head at the sound of Le'kiz's greeting. ~'Ello,~ he says in return. His eyes manage to slide back to the portal for a moment, before once again flickering to the other Tyshiri.

((OOC: Tyshiri can not 'speak' out loud. They do communicate in a series of whistles, chirps, and whirring sounds... but if it's English or some other language beyond that, it is mind-speaking...))
Another steps forward as Yoral is going through and she almost turns back, but feels it is too late. Perhaps these two can figure some sort of arrangement out...
A flash of familiarity pops into her mind... he is in her birth herd, Mysterious Vortex... Le'kiz. She nods to herself with the knowledge, but has not turned back.
She has stepped through, after Soren.

((Yeah, I know that. Just was kind of distracted while writing it.))
Mostyn watches the others step through. On my own, he thinks to himself. Not as though I haven't been countless times before. All the same, a small sigh escapes, and he turns back to Le'kiz.
~Are you going through?~ he questions.

*steps forward cautiously, but with a definite determined air about herself* ~Soren...~ she calls to the Tyshiri ahead of herself, ~since Mina believes groupwork is best ahead, would you care to work with me?~ She glances back, but only for a brief moment. She does not know what to think of Mostyn... giving storm one last glance before stepping over to Yorel with a nod... »I'm with you... This may go easier if we work together when and where possible« with that he steps through to wait on the other side for Yorel and any others that wish to join the 'force of the chosen'... while he waits he thinks about where he got that name from... storm had called them that just the night before back on their home world... she had said it with that strange mix of ancient and solemn tones and that faraway look that said she wasn't really there any more... she some times got that when something very important was about to happen. he remembered asking about that once when he was young... she had gotten a sad look then it seemed as though a hood had fallen over her eyes as she shrugged replying... "It happens sometimes... That's really all there is to it." he had been sure there was more but then, as now, he knew that she had said all she would on it. he shrugs off the sudden thrill that went down his spine and waits patiently. |

Yoral appears behind him and nods at him. ~Good...~
She looks around. ~Yeah, it'll definitely be better to work together when possible...~ her voice trails off. ~You had not offended me the other day, I just didn't know what to think of you.~ She ponders and stops.
~I just haven't ever gotten that sort of reaction,~ a shrug. ~Anyways...~ she turns her voice out, away, towards another.
~Mina... what are we looking for?~

~Through the mists you must go
Over hill and over dale
Up in a cave on the moutains peak
Find where the one named Sparrow sits
Turn him around to face the North
Find the sun to light the torch
Bring back life to what remains
Then shall you see the world unfold~
OOC: How's that for bad poetry.
~You are already in the middle of the woods at the base of the mountain. Flight is impossible until you make it above the tree line. What appears to be the peak is a 2-3 day journey from where you are, depending upon how hard you travel. It is advised to not go beyond the safety of the treeline until the dawn comes again.~

Yoral frowns slightly and turns back to Soren.
~It would appear we have quite a hike ahead of us,~ she states, pointing towards the barely-visible mountain. ~But we've got to wait until it's light again to travel.~
She looks around. ~Find somewhere comfortable, I guess. We can take shifts watching and sleeping until dawn... Unless you'd prefer first shift?~
