Woohoo! *does a dance* Thanks guys. xD I was afraid for a bit that [@Red_massa] would end up interacting only with me for the rest of the RP -- until he becomes the Big Bad and fights you in the final battle. I mean, uh ... *cough* So where shall we go from here? Might be worth noting that the blue stone on a chain is lying in the grass next to Simon -- it contains the Lady of the Pond. Of course she can be left here to rot like she deserves. ;) Also Chris needs to discover his own shiny abilities and allies. [@t2wave] any ideas on how you want Chris to develop? Are you interested in allying with tech or nature? Good or evil? Any types of powers or elements you think are awesome?
