Felicia scrambled to get out of the way of the encroaching flames-- narrowly managing to press her back up against the wall as she watched the blue flames pass over where she had been standing not but a moment ago. As the ground began to shake, she tried her best to hang onto the wall, but ultimately fell onto the cold hard floor with which she was starting to become quite acquainted. The floor shook so violently that for a moment Felicia feared something was terribly wrong-- was the ceiling about to come down or what? She threw her arms up over her head and closed her eyes. 

This was it. She was gonna die. This had all been a ruse and she had fallen for it and was gonna die....

Seconds passed and nothing happened. She lowered her arms and opened her eyes, realizing then that everyone was gravitating towards the now-cracked-and-crumbled door. She quickly joined them, trying not to bump into anyone in her haste. She listened to the fairy's tale with eyes wide. The longer she stayed, the more out of place she felt. Of all the unlikely heroes present, she felt the least likely-- even beneath the young girl named Veitaru. The Hero of Time was said to be a boy when he first began his journey-- so at least she had that going for her. 

The fairy's sudden transformation came as a shock almost as grand as the burst of fire from earlier. Who knew fairies could do all these things? Or was Lethe one of a kind?

Felicia lingered near the back, itching her shoulder as Lethe spoke of a keystone. Her eyes darted between the three different corridors before them. All were pitch black and reeked of bad news. Mid-scratch, Felicia gripped the fabric of her sleeve and chewed her lip. Teams? She surveyed the others. Who could she possibly team up with that made her feel the least uncomfortable? More importantly, who could she team up with that wouldn't be too angry upon finding out how utterly useless she was? 

[color=teal]"Heey, Felicia! Would you describe yourself as someone with adequate maternal instincts? I'm, uh, asking for a friend,"[/color] Lev, the poe she'd spoken with earlier, called out to her.

"[color=6a9375]Uh,[/color]" Felicia paused for too long and the Poe went on to offer a handshake to the hulking Hylian man-- Jaege. He was inviting her to join them. She briefly considered his offer. The sheer largeness of Jaege certainly did seem like a comfort. And Felicia did quite like children. Now that they were somewhat acquainted, the Poe definitely scared her far less than before.

Then, however, there was the massive metal man that seemed to match Jaege in both height and girth. She wasn't given enough time to stew over the long list of insecurities he provided, however, as Lethe quickly assigned those who were without a team. She felt a sense of relief wash over her. If that was her initial feeling, perhaps this [i]was[/i] the right team for her. 

"[color=6a9375]Uh, hi[/color]" Felicia said lamely as she approached with a weak wave of her hand.
