Ruuby Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 (edited) Okay back to the portal we go, gonna be hard since we used up resources already, but much better than the trek of miles in the Material Plane Edited April 7, 2022 by Ruuby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawn Posted April 7, 2022 Author Share Posted April 7, 2022 Alright than. We all hop back into the portal, after realizing that even if we knew where we were, we don't really know the way back us having not explored this territory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

feywildwitchling Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Yeah, no rolls. Yeah, trekking can be done on either material or shadowfell since you have to kill a darkcaster to close the rift from the inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(No rolls, yea?) As the 1 hour long pass without trace has not yet been expired, the whole party makes it past the void caster with ease, returning to the base of the tower and out into the field. "If I recall correctly, that way is where we came from" Tenayl would point to a direction to the left of the party, being a ranger themself means that they won't be able to become lost through nonmagical mean. "I think we should move slowly, we're still exhausted from running here only to return back" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Ugh yea unfortunately so, the Coven could have picked a more scenic plane to send us to." With a look around her equipment, and a quick assessment of her arcane power, she turns to her ranger companion. "Right with you around we won't have to worry of direction, but do you have enough power in you to cast us moving without a trace again when we make it back to the other Tower? If not we need another plan, that or just a mad scramble." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So slow that we become invisble" Tenayl's less than average intelligence is not helping form up a plan here, but it's clear that they are out of arcane energy to cast that spell due to them looking at different options. They than recall upon that one figure embedded into the stone of that other tower, recalling them to be non hostile. "Perhaps that one guy from that tower we were at could help us. Maybe it's safe to rest there" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her arms uncross and she motions them for Tenayl to take the lead before realizing her right side feels lighter. "Ah what in the nine hells, I lost one of my short swords. Ugh, ya think this plane would have other swords lying about? Eh whatever, if I find something I find something, I apologize for the hold up let's get going."

We've been traveling together for quite a while now!" Tenayl is unhappy about this statement, but continues to lead the way back to where the adventure took place, as the whole group makes it back safely without much harm due to having already eliminated the threat that was there.

Tenayl is unhappy about this statement, but continues to lead the way back to where the adventure took place, as the whole group makes it back safely without much harm due to having already eliminated the threat that was there. A low snicker and snort escapes her, as she goes to follow her companion. "Our guild is more of the thieves and rogues guild than the actual thieves and rogues guild, if you ever wanna make the change it ain't too far fetched~." Along the way in a pile of corpses, smooth long appendages cover what appears to be a sword. Making sure to do a quick movement, Cersei pulls it out fast to not impede the group. The sword is made up of a steel darker in color, elven in style, and a handle wrapped in black leather. As she goes to tighten her grip on it a numbing headache feels as if it's splitting her head before vanishing. "Woah" The steel of the sword was cold, but the air around it and the skin touching it inherit that bone chilling chill. She has no idea what has happened, but as she is already a being made up of arcane energy Cersei knows something has shifted in her. She returns to the group trying to stay quiet, but most likely the others know she had excused herself for a bit.

Dawn Posted April 11, 2022 Author Share Posted April 11, 2022 "Everything alright?" Tenayl asks as Cersei joins back within the group, while taking a sip of coffee to hydrate themself, having already passed the cup around to their teammates and offering it to Cersei "You're sweating a bit."

"Listen we did escape from another portal, and who knows maybe escaping is just a respite for something worse, but we wanna escape from that portal up there." She points up the tower. "If you can at least help us in our futile struggle that would be great, better and far more entertaining than just stuck in a wall wouldn't it?!"

I do hate you all, but your survival of this world has proven your worth. Very well, I shall help you for what I can do, but the rest is up to you. I can only disable it for a moment, and thus you all must work together." Tenayl speaks up, "You don't think we can rest here for a while? We're all quite exhausted from our traveling you see, and-" "I hate you too. But what is it to wait when you have been waiting... for ages and ages..."

Dunno about anything longer to take away this exhaustion, I'm fine with doing so though. Didn't bring a bedroll for this though haha." The sounds of Cersei's laugh has the man in the wall speak once more. "What use is there in laughing ......when it is all for naught, rest, .......but when it's over you will struggle. ....I will help in your struggle, there is.... power up there... awakened.... ebbing ..... flowing........ I can..... stop it for a bit..... but the aftermath..... with the caster... and the rift.... you must be... fast."

Dawn Posted April 11, 2022 Author Share Posted April 11, 2022 Tenayl blinks unable to translate the rambling of Vex "Yeah I think we're able take a long rest here. I don't think anyone's going to approach us with them around" Tenayl takes out a sac and pulls out their bedroll, passing it to Cersei while fashioning two sacs to create a makeshift bedroll tied with rope. Exhausted and without word, they fall asleep in the makeshift bed clearly having slept in such conditions with ease before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
