When Jax slapped Morthos that shut him up right quick, and was exactly what he needed. She went off to confirm the mission was to be theirs and Morthos took a minute to just take some deep breaths and calm himself down. Jax came back and assured him she would do everything she could to help. It felt good to be close to Jax like this, which promptly ended when she realized how close they were and stepped away from him. [color=red]"Right, I'm probably just overreacting, the posting didn't say she'd left yet, she's probably fine."[/color] At least he hoped she was. [color=red]"So, ley lines, not sure how much you all know but I'm just going to explain what's up with them because honestly, it'll help me calm down to talk about something I'm knowledgeable about."[/color] He took a deep breath to center himself once more before explaining. [color=red]"So, ley lines are natural things and are all around the world. Some span continents while others are barely the length of a town, and they contain immense magical energy. when two or more lines cross it's called a nexus, SPA is built where it is because it's on top of a large ley line nexus. Some people can tap in to this energy to strengthen their magic, but it's very difficult, I tried once when I was younger and nearly killed myself. But, I do know a way to travel along the lines, at least from nexus to nexus, so I can get us from here to a spot near my hometown."[/color] When he was done that he actually did feel better than he did before, [color=red]"so, if everyone is ready I can actually do it from here. Like I said, the SPA nexus is [i]huge[/i]."[/color] Once everyone was good he had them all gather around in what looked like a group huddle, with arms around each others shoulders, he of course made sure Jax was next to him so he could keep her close during this part. [color=red]"So this is going to feel strange if you've never been the subject of teleportation magic before. Everyone experiences it a bit differently, but in general you can expect to feel like your body is being stretched in strange ways, see lots of strange colours, and you might get sick when we show up on the other end, I did my first time. So get ready, 5..4..."[/color] He didn't bother finishing the countdown, instead he initiated the spell and took them in an instant from the girls' home to the nexus near Dunwich. [color=red]"Sorry, I also find it helps if you're not expecting it. Once you're all feeling better we can..."[/color] He trailed off, he was just noticing the scenery was nothing like what he remembered. Everywhere was covered in a dense fog, he could barely see more than 10-20 feet in front of him. He did see the sign he was expecting though, pointing which way Dunwich was. He created a small fire in his hand which helped basically none but it made him feel better. [color=red]"Okay, it's this way, stay close. Also, this mission won't pay as much as maybe it should. I'll cover the difference out of pocket if you guys want, I don't mind, I just want to help my mom."[/color]
