I [Closed to Emerald Sanctum]

[heartstorage]

Who: Sora and the Green Flight
What: Arrival and feeling a bit lost!
Where: The Emerald Sanctum
When: Let's go with Today
Warnings: DISNEY

[This....really wasn't Traverse Town.]

[Sora stood at the mouth of a cave in Emerald Sanctum, trying to retrace his steps mentally. He scratches at his head, thinking outloud]

I left Yen Sid's tower, and then...everything got went all bizarre and there were these guys in cloaks-

[But not the Organization cloaks either. He sighs and shakes his head. Maybe he should have paid more attention to what those cloak guys were saying. He's not sure what he was doing here. Then again, he was partly just glad it didn't look like the World that Never Was again.]

Maybe I should just ask someone...

[And he decides to do just that, looking around the Sanctum he looks for someone to bother. The sleeping ones he decides to leave alone, but when he spots someone awake, he'll walk straight up to them in a very friendly manner and smile]

Hiya! Sorry to bother ya, but can you tell me where I am?

Comments

[heartstorage]

They aren't?

[Wow. A keyblade and two legendary blades gone? That's really not a good sign- and his expression is definitely one of worry. The keyblade is really important. It wasn't something someone could easily misplaced -something had to have gone wrong. Question is: was it something wrong with the situation, or something wrong with him?]

[But he knows it's better not to trouble Lyn with his worries. Nor was is a good idea to sit and mope about the keyblade being missing. That wouldn't get anything solved]

[And so, he gives her a nod]

Yeah, you're right. A weapon would be better than nothing.

[hectorcantgofast]

Follow me!

[Thankfully, they do have an armory here.]

What kind of weapon do you prefer?

[heartstorage]

[He follows]

Uh...[That wasn't a keyblade?] Well, I've used swords before [Wooden ones....]

[And he tries to think of other weapons, or at least magic similar. His wisdom drive form comes to mind]

I'm not too bad a shot either!

[hectorcantgofast]

With a bow and arrow? You've come to the right place. I use both myself.

[No, he probably wasn't talking about a bow. Either way, the armory wasn't far. In fact, she opens the door to it now.]

[mortalforged]

I can feel the plants around me, beneath me, if I concentrate. The gift tells me what it is. Also, everything that is alive has a voice. Even a flower has needs and wants and limits. The gift of green dragons, which we have shared with you dragonsworn, allows you to 'hear' the plants and make them grow.

[He smiles a bit.]

Go on. Try it.

[theshadowkissed]

It's been a little over two months now. As glad as I am to see reinforcements arrived, it just shows how much the Burning Legion is expanding their invasion. Sorry your world got affected.

[heartstorage]

Over two months...

[That's a long time to be on one planet. He shakes his head]

It's not your fault. I'm just worried...I wa, sorta in the middle of trying to stop another war before I got brought here.

[heartstorage]

Heh heh, actually it's probably closer to a gun. I've never used a bow before!

[theshadowkissed]

I know how you feel. I was pretty busy with something back home, too. [Like getting her name cleared and getting her best friend voting rights.]

But if we fail here, it's pretty guaranteed that our worlds are toast. By helping here, you help save your world. Pretty heavy stuff, I know, but yelling about it only goes so far. [She'd tried.]

[hectorcantgofast]

I'm afraid you're going to have to tell me what a gun is.

[heartstorage]

But that's just it! If the other war's not stopped, our worlds would be toast too!

[He slumps his shoulders. Talk about a rock and a hard place. And with his keyblade gone right now, it's not like he has much choice at all]

But I know these guys need to be stopped too, and my way outta here isn't here. So...I guess I can just hope my friends can handle it alright.

[They were stronger than him anyhow. Maybe they would be okay]

[theshadowkissed]

Have faith in your friends. Do what you can here and trust they'll do what they can back home. Maybe they'll go 'What would Sora do?' and that'll guide them.

[heartstorage]

[He considers that, then smiles at her]

Yeah, you're right. Thanks Rose. I'll do my best here.

[theshadowkissed]

Good. [The kid was cute in that blue-eyed bushy-tailed way.] So, how about you get yourself familiar with the Sanctum - we do have an armory, spend a bit of time learning your new dragon abilities and visit Silverglen Retreat. You'll see some really weird looking elves there and they'll be wary of you, but they'll let you be as long as you're helpful.

I've got some plans to see if we can get a good foothold for the flight in a more southern elven town, but that's still in the works.

[heartstorage]

Oh- you don't know?

[WEIRD]

It's uh...a weapon, that shoots bullet- uh, small pellets? They really pack a punch!

[To put it lightly]

[heartstorage]

[are you saying we've become disney princesses morpheus.]

[Sora considers his words. He guesses that plants are alive, so why wouldn't they have a voice? It's not too different from those talking flowers in Wonderland, right?]

Hear the plants and help them grow...

[He shuts his eyes and tries to concentrate on the plants around him. He's never done this before, so he's not entirely sure what he's listening for. So after a beat, he asks]

Uh, how can I tell it's their voice and not me thinking I hear them?

[heartstorage]

[The cutest little killer]

Okay, I can do that! [he likes exploring anyway. And he doesn't think too much on the remark about strange looking elves or them being wary. that's pretty normal] Are my dragon abilities that whole growing thing? Morpheus showed me a little of that.

[But the last thing piques his curiosity] A foothold? Do you need help?

[anybody]

[ She looks up when he tells her it's okay, seeming instantly relieved. She nods quietly in agreement, and gives him a brief smile again. ]

Um... more than a month... two months? [ She's sort of lost track, but she thinks that sounds about right. ] How long have you been here? A few days?

[heartstorage]

Two months...?! That's a long time!

[He rubs the back of his neck] Heh, not even that. It can't have been more than an hour, tops.

[anybody]

Yes, it's... it's been a while. But I've tried to keep myself busy. I'm not a fighter though, so I'm not sure if I've been any help... [ Mostly she's had tea parties with stuffed animals and played with her new plantlife powers, really. ]

O-Oh, that's very new. I'm glad you came directly to the Emerald Sanctum, when I was brought here we were all outside and there were demons trying to kill everyone and I got lost and I, um, well, I didn't like it. It's much nicer in here.

[heartstorage]

Hey don't say that. Fighting's not the only way to help in things like this! [He wouldn't have gotten anywhere without his support crew]

W-What, really?! [Jeez that's freaky] Was everyone alright- are demons always outside the Sanctum?

[anybody]

Well, I know, but still... [ She still feels rather small in all of this. Rose had told her something similar, she remembers, about finding some way to help in spite of not being able to fight, or even really heal. She's been trying, but for someone with such a meek disposition, it's been a bit of a slow journey. ]

Dragons died, but I think all of the dragonsworn were alright. And... yes, I think so. Some places have more than others, so some places are safe and others aren't. The only place we know they can't get into are the five sanctums.

[heartstorage]

Oh...

[He frowns a little. Even if they weren't...sworn, dragons dying is still something to feel sad about. Mushu was just as much a part of their team after all]

[Even if he was a scheming lying lizard]

Okay...I'll keep that in mind when I explore outside the Sanctum. Where are the other Sanctums?

[anybody]

[ She doesn't seem to feel too good about dragons dying either. Death is something that she simply isn't used to, so being in a world where it is entirely too common, Lady finds herself bothered and a little frightened by it all most times. ]

I'm... not sure. The portals are hidden, or sort of hidden, and this is the only one for us, the greensworn. There's a flight for red, black, bronze, and blue and they all have their own sanctums too. Red is friendly and they were very nice to me when I first got here but I'm... not sure if we're allowed to be in the other flight's sanctums...

[heartstorage]

Huh? Why not? Do the other flights not get along?
