sometimes you can't make it

Who: Alexstrasza, Krasus/Korialstrasz, and the Redsworn
What: Successful retreat into the Ruby Sanctum
Where: Ruby Sanctum
When: After a long, grueling battle near the borders of Suramar
Warnings: Please PM the mods if any warnings are needed

[The Ruby Sanctum is a flurry of activity. This becomes clear within two seconds of stepping through the portal. The wounded are guided over to a grassy clearing surrounded by saplings and adolescent trees, bade to lay down and receive healing from other dragonkin. Some of the trees are years old, while a few look to have shot up recently. If you watch, vines engulf one fallen warrior; the body sinks into the ground, and a tiny sapling appears in its place.

Despite the war going on outside, the sanctum is less of a cavern and more like a self-contained dimension. Ample sunlight drifts down through scarlet leaves, which are occasionally home to the crimson scales of a whelpling. There is life everywhere: insects on twigs, birds chirping overhead, flowers at your feet. Dragon eggs lay nestled in the nooks and crannies offered by the tranquil forest. There is a decently-sized spring filled with fresh, pure water, as well as some small rocky outcroppings to sleep in. It's warm and comfortable enough to rest out in the open, too.

The cloaked and ever-mysterious Krasus stands watching the dispersing redsworn, his back against the massive oak in the center of the sanctum.

Occasionally, one may glimpse a beautiful red-haired woman with copper skin winding through the copse.]

[ooc: Mingle log for redsworn!]

Yeah. [He's not bothered by the bluntness.] It works, too, since I was there for a year when they shut the Transporter down. ... An Earth year, I mean.

So I guess I'm actually... eight and a half?
wilder: (haha oops)

[Eight and a half- he snickers a little and shakes his head]

Heh- you really are a kid.
chosenfake: (♫ i'm feeling alive)

[Aaaaaaaaaand now he puffs out his cheeks.]

No I'm not.
wilder: (friendly laugh)

[He laughs, an actual genuine sounding one. Too cute Luke, too cute]

Uh huh.

Eat up. Your food'll suck even more if it's cold.
chosenfake: (♫ and i hope that you don't suffer)

[Well, that's true, but he can't help feeling like he's being mothered a little. He gives him a pointed look anyway.

He realizes as he's biting into his bear steak that he hasn't heard Zelos laugh like that before. It's kind of nice.

He also realizes that this is war and there won't be much more room for laughter or downtime after this.]
wilder: (Sarcam - dude whatever)

[Yeah you're...probably not gonna hear it again anytime soon, war or no war. The fact you heard it at all is amazing!]

[But he'll just smirk and snort at Luke's pointed look before going back to own food.]

[....]


[Yeah, he hates bear.]
