[color=0072bc][h3]Ardur The Pixie[/h3][/color] [color=92278f] No Pain, No Gain. >>>> Off to find a Wizard Lizard /// day 8 // Afternoon[/color] He woke to the light sound of rain. Instantly recognizing the red lights of an ambulance as they flickered and flashed illuminating the dark street. There was a women sitting in front of him. She had long black hair and a tan complexion. The young lady was bruised, beaten, and battered but was smiling. He even got her to laugh a little before he heard the thunder. Strange there wasn’t any lightning. Then all he felt was cold. Ardur woke from his dream with a start, his head felt like it nearly split in two and his legs still hurt. He could feel that feeling again, the emptiness in the pit of his stomach like having low blood sugar just without the shakes. His mana was low. He didn’t feel like he got anything out of that. [i]“Perhaps the sacrifice wasn’t big enough? Or maybe I’m not doing it right and the whole sacrifice something for another thing was wrong in this instance? Perhaps it was a moral thing, something that needed action maybe.”[/i] He was momentarily lost in his thoughts but eventually came out of it. Looking around at a few of the others getting things situated and working on other things. Ardur was seemingly left to his own devices, the goblins could attack at any moment but perhaps they were gearing up for the attack? Questions that can be answered with time. But for now he figured the best thing to do is make the most of what time they had. Standing up and looking around Ardur noticed that he hadn’t seen Ash in a little while. The pixie did recognize his steed as one of the smarter if not the smartest reborn around here. He personally didn’t care if she fought back but thought she might appreciate knowing the situation. Walking back to the pile of mana crystals Ardur once again used one to refill his mana. Taking another glance around at what was happening he noticed a few dire rats around with one big one as well as a large slime as well. [color=92278f]“Had that new group made friends with the other creatures here?”[/color] how strange. [quote=System:Ardur] 1 Mana crystal used. Mana fully restored. [/quote] Fluttering his wings, the pixie began to take off up high at first before fixing his wings and gliding. Ardur wasn’t going very fast this time, instead he took his time scanning the environment below him. He was trying to find his friend after all. The smart lizard could very well be anywhere and might just be a bit difficult to see. But after some searching he finally found a strange gathering of monsters. It would seem that a small gathering of pixies, lizards, and a wisp had grouped up next to a couple dead goblins. The pale pixie circled once, then twice as he inspected the ones on the ground before finding a suitable landing spot. Setting down on top of a small rock but still above them. The pixie looked them over for a moment then back to ash. Somehow he looked slightly bigger than the other pixies but not by much. [color=92278f]“Ahh I was wondering where my mighty steed had wandered off too” [/color]he said with a smile. He was pretty sure that annoyed her, but he didn’t care. [color=92278f]“Looks like you have been busy.”[/color] Gesturing to the others. [color=92278f]“So I thought I might come find you and give you a heads up for what’s coming, so this is your situation report before I go off again.”[/color] He paused again and sighed, [color=92278f]“A few moments ago there was a skirmish at the bonfire between Crispy and four goblins versus 2 groups of reborn including myself. After the ensuing battle all but two goblins were killed, Crispy got away with another reborn goblin.”[/color] He paused again to breathe and let the others soak up the information. [color=92278f]“Now the rest of us are preparing for a fight up near the bonfire so if you’re in we could use the help otherwise you should hide. I do believe that these goblins are going to go for a scorched earth approach and completely wipe out everything in the cave. O and we found a large stash of mana crystals under the bonfire including several fire imbued crystals and a green source crystal.”[/color] Pausing again for a moment to make sure he covered everything before returning his gaze to her and smiling.
