your hands protect the flames

Who: The Dragonsworn
What: The first arrival of the Dragonsworn goes a bit...awry.
Where: Scattered around the perimeter of Suramar.
When: Dawn on March 21st
Warnings: Please PM the mods if any warnings are needed

It is almost as if you've woken from a daydream when the ground meets your feet. The stench of fire is overpowering, and though dawn is just approaching in the canopies of Kalimdor, bright flashes of green can be seen between the branches of impossibly tall trees. If that doesn't snap you out of your surprise, then the sound of nearby spitting in demonic tongue may persuade you to get a grip and notice your surroundings -- you are not alone. There are others like you, huddled just a bit too close, with a somewhat familiar face keeping you from advancing further. Looking down at your hands may briefly reveal a momentary flash of color, but nothing lasting more than a few seconds.

The mages of each flight take the helm of their charges, and they are quick to notice any movement from their groups despite channeling some sort of spell to keep you protected. Stray fire will bounce off an invisible shield that ripples when anything make contact with it. There seems to be nothing in sight but your new comrades, and your guardian -- at least not on the ground. The sky has flying demons swarming a pack of dragons -- and the dragons are very clearly losing. Look just a bit farther, and you might find more dragons, though these clearly have different colored scales than the ones above your head.

While distracted, you may hear your guardian speak to you. "There may yet be wounded nearby -- if you care to, bring them here, and we will tend to them from the Sanctum." Briefly, they gesture skyward, toward the dragons flying overhead. "Do not bring to us any that are not our own, lest you invite their demise!"

But the mage is focused on casting -- they are in no position to halt your advance, and they know it. They speak with concern -- concern for you, concern for the dire situation at hand. The demonic cackling is drawing near. The forests are rapidly becoming overrun, and there are already a few dragons slain on the forest floor.

"Take care, Dragonsworn -- I am bringing us to safety, but it will take time. To wander far is to invite your ruin, and we cannot afford the loss of your life."

[OOC: You are free to mingle on this post as you choose, despite the flight groups being scattered through the forests around Suramar -- after this log, you will be separated into your sanctums, and your interactions will be watched much more closely. Attempting to enter the city itself will result in a vicious attack from demons that will kill. The Dragon Mages will be tagging sporadically to heroes of their matching flight, and the conclusion of this log will lead Dragonsworn through portals to their Sanctums.]

Is that the law here? [ Giggling. ] Oops, call me a law breaker!

In all seriousness, my kind can live up to thousands of years so won't you help me out?
wilder: (look at all the fucks I give)

Thousands of years...jeez

[Like Angels and Summon Spirits. It was weird to think about. He'd ask what she is, but now's not really the time]

[Also, he really doesn't want to look for the rock. Sooo it's time to live up to his false occupation!]


Hmmmmm...maybe if you pay me fifty of whatever currency's used here.

[ Nowi's used to this. She's seen so many merchants in her time (most of the time they were trying to sell her or someone else), so she considers the offer for a moment. ]

You see, that rock is worth way more than fifty of whatever the currency is here. I bet whoever found it could sell it for a lot...

Oh, but you don't know what it looks like without my help, do you?
wilder: (this is not a comforting smile)

[personal profile] wilder 2014-03-26 08:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Is that right?

[He considers for a moment, before he smirks]

Alright, then I'll raise my price to 200! 400 if I find it. Paying shouldn't be a problem if you own that expensive of stuff, right?

[Did you really think he'd fall for that.]

Hey, that's no fair!

[ Now starts the childish screaming. ] You can't outsmart me like that and then try to get more money out of me. Where do you think I can keep that much of whatever currency it is dragons use?

That rumor about dragons being hoarders of large amounts of treasure is just a rumor and isn't true at all!
wilder: (sneer)

[Oh yes, the delicious sounds of screaming. Zelos just smirks and gives a big shrug with his arms]

Hey, sorry my dear! I'm a mercenary, I'd starve if I did jobs for free. And if you're gonna try to trick me into doing work for free, then I got no choice but to raise my rates.

If you don't wanna pay, you can always try to find someone else to look for your rock.
