Epyllion: Beyond Moonlight's Reach

The moment Skobeloff agrees to Fogdance's offer, she eagerly begins leading him out of the main hall and towards one of the side rooms. Should Skobeloff follow, he'd find himself in a small dining area. It's very bare, with the only real furnishings being a table with chairs near the center, and a pantry and counter off to the side, and Skobeloff quickly would note that these seem to have been grown out of the wood of the floor itself rather than having been moved in. Fogdance motions him to sit down, and he'd realise as he's explaining his journey, she's not even really listening to him anymore as she starts to prepare his food.

When she's finished, she come's over with a bowl of what appears to be porridge, albeit garnished with a variety of tropical fruits. "Now, I know it's probably not as fancy as what you're used to," she says, with what Skobeloff had just said seeming to completely go over her head. "But we of House Tessith find that the simplest meals are usually the best for you." She places the bowl in front of the drake and looks at him very expectantly.

It seems like she really, really wants Skobeloff to hurry up and eat. What will he do?

As the group starts to sneak past the corrupted brownies, they will notice one of the bushes nearby starting to shake as they approach. "Psst! Hey, you lot!" a voice calls out, and a small hairy hand sticks out from the leaves and beckons towards the group. "This way! Follow me. Slowly, so as not to disturb 'em."

This voice seems familiar to Fellwing. What will the group do?

Epyllion: Beyond Moonlight's Reach

Hmm, so would there be another Traverse the Wilderness roll for the rest of the journey, or are we in the clear?

@Vertigo

No, you don't have to roll Traverse the Wilderness again. I'll get the next post up soon.

Epyllion: Beyond Moonlight's Reach

I think we've lost Digizel for now at least ):

@Vertigo

Yeah, I've sent him a couple of messages over Discord, and he hasn't responded to them so I'm just assuming he's really busy at this point. If he hasn't responded by the end of the Chapter, I'm going to have to consider whether or not to remove Shieldwing from the clutch and/or making him an NPC. I still think we have a bit of this chapter to go, though, so I won't worry about that for now.

"Hmm?" Fogdance took a moment to register the question she'd just been asked. Despite Skobeloff's inability to detect anything unusual about this room, the older dragon's mannerisms give the impression as if she's having two conversations at once: one with Skobeloff, and one with someone the drake can neither see nor hear.

"Oh, well, there was a whole group of us when we came here, but, err, things got out of hand and we ended up separated." Fogdance nods towards the staircase behind her. "So now it's just me and two drakes, Tamba and Pleexem. Poor dears have been pretty spooked by this whole ordeal, completely tuckered them out, so they're having a little nap right now." She give Skobeloff a small, and somewhat pained, smile. "Speaking of groups, is it just you here? How did you make it all the way out here by yourself? You must be tired and hungry. If you want, I can get you something to eat or drink. We still have plenty of supplies, thankfully."

There is a pause, as if the Moons are considering Fellwing's plea. Then, Fellwing feels the gentle light of the Spirit Moon course through her scales as every tree and bush in the vicinity start blossoming with large tropical of many different colours, filling the area with a fresh floral scent. The corrupted brownies' attention is taken away from the dragons towards the plants, as they begin chattering and chirping to one another in a mixture of confusion and fascination. Before, they had the group surrounded, but now there is enough room for the dragons to make a break for it.

Had fallen asleep, whoops! Hmm, she was probably calling out in general, not even knowing what specifically she was asking for - just something magical in the forest that would draw the rodents away. Some noise, light, smell, maybe some natural phenomenon like flowers blooming all of a sudden, or maybe something that would make their hardworking nature flare, like something making a mess in their forest. I can settle on a specific thing too if needed though, maybe some sort of a combination; particularly enticing, vibrant flowers starting to bloom all over the place?

The +1 was the Friendship Gem returned if I understood the wording correctly. Or does this mean that you need to use one gem anyway, and if you use more than one, you can add those to the result?

@Vertigo

Yeah, that'll work. I'll get to writing that post.

Okay, so about the Moon Magic move!... Turns out, I have been misconstruing how that move works this whole time. I was reading it as "you roll Friendship Gems that other people have returned to you", but looking through the rulebook, no, your interpretation is the correct one. So yeah, you did it right, my bad ^^' Sorry 'bout that.

Epyllion: Beyond Moonlight's Reach

@Vertigo Is Fellwing calling upon a specific moon, or just asking for the moons in general? In the future, upon getting a 10+, you're allowed to describe the moon doing whatever you want (within reason).

Edit: Also, I just checked that roll. Where is that +1 from? It won't affect your roll since it's still a 10+, I just want some clarification.

(definitly probably solidifying her thought that the bird is actually a demi-god/god in disguise)

@LostDestiny

Ya'll keep joking about this, and Rush *will* make it canon xP

Di'Siveks: Adventure (A D&D 5E Game)

I personally am looking forward to when Cascade asks what the bird's name is.

Aura: Hawk.
Cascade: Yes, I know he's a hawk, but what's his name?
Aura: His name is Hawk.
Cascade: ...
Aura: ...

Fall of Faerieland

I mean, I would still be willing to continue this. Or to have another go at it at a later date. I do still really like the idea of Neopets DnD.
