Hey, if the site ever went down, would we have a way to stay in contact?
Lorag was sitting near the edge of camp alone. He had stoked the fire in preparation for everyone else's return, but he wasn't near it himself. He was simply sitting on a smooth patch of dirt, staring off at nothing in particular. He saw that Fendros was approaching, and it did not take much to figure out why. Still, he was not keen on a conversation, so he looked away from Fendros as if refusing eye contact would stop him from being able to speak.
Kaleeth did not respond immediately, and instead just stared at him with her arms still wrapped around him. It was amazing to her that she could experience so many new things in even a relatively small area of water. It was as if she had lived her entire life until this point in a cave, and was only now stepping out into the light. It many ways, it was frightening, as she knew nothing about what she was stepping into, but as she had seen, there were also wonders for her to experience. There was still a significant part of her that wanted to return to what was familiar and safe. After all, just because something was new, that did not mean she would like it. She could end up suffering in the world outside her home, but she was finally starting to realize that there was a chance she could actually enjoy this life. There was a chance that her life away from home was not necessarily just going to be her trying to make the best of a bad situation. Eventually, she smiled. "Yes, we should." She said, giving him another, quicker kiss.

Ahnasha took Rhazii and allowed him to nurse as she listened to Fendros. Just like him, she was indecisive on what to do. Lorag was always a hard person to understand. Even though his actions always seemed so straightforward, there was more to him than he liked to let on. It also did not help that he was the oldest member of the pack, so no one else had gone through what he was experiencing.
"I feel like...this isn't something I know how to approach. I mean, aging is something I am worried about, but...I'm not in the same position as Lorag. I think...you should at least try to talk to him once, since he already told you before. That seems like the option that would upset him the least. If it doesn't work, I think telling Meesei would be the next best option. He will always listen to the Alpha." Ahnasha suggested.
It took a few moments for Kaleeth to understand what Janius wanted her to do, but eventually, she realized that she was meant to stay still. There was a decent wait where she did not understand why he wanted her to be still, but once the fish started to swim around them, it all made sense. She could not help but to smile at the sight around her. The school was made up of more living fish than she had ever seen in one spot, moving like a cloud swirling around them. So entranced by the sight was she that she almost didn't notice Janius' breathing issues until she felt her hand being squeezed.
Janius had started to pull Kaleeth up with him, but once she began to swim as well, she ended up pulling him much more quickly. They had not been so deep that they needed to worry about a significant pressure difference, so she brought him up as fast as possible. Once they broke the surface, she allowed him a few moments to catch his breath, but as soon as his breaths calmed enough, she wrapped her arms tightly around him and gave him an enthusiastic kiss, her passion inspired by the majesty of the sights he showed her.
Meesei had saw that Janius had suddenly needed to surface, but fortunately, Kaleeth seemed to have the matter well in hand, as she brought him to the surface more than quickly enough for him to be safe. As such, she swam back to shore once the pair had made it to the surface. She gave a smile to Fendros and Ahnasha as she walked by them, but she decided to approach Ariel and Sabine, as it appeared they were drying off, and would likely be leaving soon.

"That...is pretty worrying, actually. Have you told Meesei about this?" Ahnasha asked. Given that Leyawiin's Orc population was rather small, she did not know a great deal about their ways, but what Fendros described seemed perfectly in line with the rest of what she knew about them. Much like Nords, they had a warrior's culture, so desiring an "honorable" death seemed to make sense. She would have thought that being raised in Cheydinhal would have mitigated some of the more...extreme cultural traits, but that did not appear to be the case.
"I can't really think of what he would want to fight, nothing we are guaranteed to find, anyway. We're going to be on a ship for almost a month, then...we really don't know what is going to happen. Do you think it would help for you to ask him, or do you think he will just shoo you away again?" She wondered.
After taking a few moments to collect herself, Kaleeth could see that the strange fish was not actually a threat, and with its bulbous shape, it would actually slightly amusing. Still, it had startled her enough that she was eager to get away from it. The fish had been one of the oddest creatures she had ever seen, until Janius stopped at the next point of interest. At first, she thought the strange, star-shaped beings were some kind of plant or growth, but after a few moments, she noticed some slow movement. It was like no fish or animal she had ever seen, so it made her start to wonder if there were actually plants that could move. Given what happened with the other fish, she made sure to stay precisely as far away from it as Janius. Just like with him, though, her attention was diverted when the school of fish emerged from the kelp a short distance away. It was a tantalizing and majestic sight. They were small like trodh, but with how many there were, they seemed gigantic. Once again, she looked out at them wide-eyed, but this time with wonder instead of confusion.

I think I'll be going to bed. Goodnight.
Lorag watched Rhazii splash around in the water with some interest before Fendros asked his question. At that point, he turned his head and looked straight forward, at least slightly upset by the question. "Don't worry about it. I figured that out." He said firmly before walking away without allowing for so much as a word in response.
To Ahnasha, Lorag's lack of a response said almost as much as if he would have outright admitted to whatever it was. Something was bothering him; that much was clear. She doubted she could get that kind of information from him, but it appeared that Fendros already had. Once Lorag was far enough away, she glanced over to Fendros and gave a slight nod. "Okay, so you have to tell me what that is about." She said quietly.
Kaleeth eagerly followed Janius out of the kelp, though it took her a moment to notice anything out of the ordinary with the rocks in front of them. She only noticed that one was actually alive when she saw Janius staring at it. While it was quite impressive how it blended in, she did not see anything too spectacular about it at first. After all, there were plenty of fish in the marsh that made use of camouflage which was just as effective. It wasn't too large and did not seem threatening, so Kaleeth started to slowly inch her way towards it so she could see it more clearly. For the first few seconds, it remained perfectly still, but once she reached a certain distance, it puffed up on an instant. Kaleeth let out a muffled scream and jolted back to the edge of the clearing, which pulled Janius along with her. She was not sure what to think at first, and instead just looked around wide-eyed and confused.

Once Ariel and Sabine headed to shore, Ahnasha decided to swim back as well to rejoin Fendros. He had been watching Rhazii for a while, so she supposed it was his turn to swim again. She sat down in the shallow water beside him, with Rhazii between them. "So, you two enjoying yourselves? Thanks for watching him; you can go and swim for a while if you like, unless you would rather just stay here." She said, putting her arm around him and giving him a kiss on the cheek.
It was not long after the others climbed out of the water that Lorag returned to shore as well. As he walked past Ahnasha, Fendros, and Rhazii, he stopped just on the edge of the shore and glanced down at them. "Figures that everyone would leave me all alone without even a word."
"Well, if you would actually say a word every now and then, people might remember to talk to you." Ahnasha commented.
Lorag crossed his arms. "Hmph, I'm plenty talkative."
"Yeah, as talkative as a mute." She chuckled, though her expression became a bit more inquisitive as a thought popped into her mind. "Although...in all seriousness, I have noticed you have been especially quiet for, well, at least a month or two by now, since I'm thinking about it. What's going on?"
For a brief moment, Lorag actually seemed to show a bit of concern in his expression, but he quickly pushed it aside and answered dismissively. "Whatever." He said before looking at Rhazii and speaking up, as if to dispell Ahnasha's observation. "So, what's your little puppykitten up to?"
Kaleeth just barely caught a glimpse of the ray before it was out of sight, so to her, the large fish was just a mysterious plume of sand. It captured her curiosity, but also gave her a healthy amount of worry. Ariel said there were dangers in the ocean, so she decided it would probably be best to defer to Janius to take the lead. While the field of kelp felt strangely smooth against her scales, she quickly found that it wasn't to interesting in itself, though she supposed it might hide some other kinds of creatures. Still, she had no idea what to look for. It was one of the rare instances where Janius actually had more experience with a body of water than herself.
Since Humans could not hear properly underwater, she tried to find some other way to communicate to him to take the lead. She had not planned out ways to communicate, however, so she just ended up staring at him expectantly, as if doing so would somehow tell him her thoughts.

It was touching to see the bond between Sabine and her sister. It was hard to imagine how the first time Sabine ever mentioned Ariel, it was to warn them to stay away. Had Janius not stumbled into her shop, and had she not taken the risk of seeking them out, they never would have reunited, and Meesei would likely not have had the idea to bring Sabine to Black Marsh for her ritual. While the current situation was not perfect, it was probably one of the better outcomes that could have resulted from their visit to Vos.
Ahnasha smiled and swam closer to them once they pulled away from one another. "I think you will be perfectly safe with Sabine at your side. Honestly, I've always wanted to see her throw a grown man to the ground." She commented with a chuckle before reaching out and placing a hand on her shoulder. "Still, it's probably best to be safe. But...well I know we still have a few days, but I just want to say that I am glad things turned out as they have. It was a pleasure to have you along during those few months between Vos and Thorn. Honestly, I don't know what I would have done without your salves and all the other potions you made. Now, I don't normally find that I like city dwellers...but I'm glad to call you a friend."
Once Janius dove under the surface, Kaleeth was quick to take the lead and dart out deeper into the water with him in tow. Not far from the shore, Kaleeth saw fields of kelp growing up from the floor of the ocean beneath them, though she did not know what it was. To her, they seemed like a small forest of long leaves. Being careful not to lose her grip on Janius' hand, she cautiously swam up to one and touched it gently to feel its texture.Once she was satisfied they would not harm her, she suddenly swam into the thickest part of the kelp, dragging Janius along with her.
Meesei did not follow close to Janius and Kaleeth, but she was sure to dive under far enough to keep them within her sight. She trusted Kaleeth's swimming ability to bring him to the surface if something went wrong, but she felt safer if she was close enough to help.

For some reason, I feel like I should continue backing up the RP, though I don't quite have time at the moment.
