Oh, hey, I remember the one from way back! I'm in for another spin.

Got a post up! Super rushed since I need to get to the train in a few, but if I forgot something we'll say Fellwing did as well, she can always ask more later!

<Snipped quote by Vertigo>

Oh no, hope everything's okay. Obviously, real-life stuff comes before the game, just was worried 'cause we hadn't heard anything from you. Hope you enjoy your trip! Where you headin'?@XxFellsingxX
Thank you, and no worries. Things are more stable now at least. Sorry for being all over the place lately, hopefully things settle down after I'm back! Going to the Canary Islands to escape the cold up here for a bit, heh.

To Echo's they went, through thick and thin and muddy water. Luckily Shieldwing offered to carry Alpin when the latter could no longer swim, so Fellwing didn't need to embarrass herself further by trying to volunteer. She wasn't the strongest of swimmers herself, being far more accustomed to flying, but she didn't utter a word of complaint. Or a word in general, really. She was too busy trying to recall the details of her visions which, by now, had already started to fade.

Echo was not well; one could tell as much with a glance. Wordlessly and worried, she glanced over at Stargaze, letting the two exchange greetings and pleasantries before she stepped up, back straight and wings folded neatly at her sides. 

"Echo," she greeted, bowing her head. "We've seen what the Darkness has done here." 

It was only now she remembered the stranger she heard Alpin mention way back when, and instantly she regretted not asking him about it earlier. Perhaps it wasn't too late. "I've many questions. The stranger in the hollow-- are they the cause?" Her gaze flickered between Echo and Alpin, "What do you know of them? And--"

Fellwing glanced deeper into the cave. She knew she ought to be careful who she let know of her visions, so what happened with Alpin didn't repeat. But Echo seemed trustworthy enough, and they were in a hurry besides. "As I... as I understand it, you've a guest over. As the moons willed, I saw them, and you, and the state of their injuries. May we help in any way? What happened to them?"

Yeah, sorry, had a family emergency and now an upcoming trip, but will toss a quick post up tomorrow before my train. I'll be gone for a week from there so don't wait for me! Will resume posting once back though.

Alright, read up! I think I'll wait for Echo's reply before writing my own though, since Fellwing might have some followup questions, but for now she's politely listening to her answer.

Whoa, stuff! Sorry 'bout the absence, will catch up IC and OOC tomorrow. Also glad to have to have you back, Digizel!

I'm alright, yeah! Just been busy. Were you waiting for a post from me? Can get one up tomorrow if so, but am fine with getting to Echo's as is! I don't think Fellwing would contribute much at the moment :D

Will get my sheet up in the next few days, sorry for the wait, been a little hectic, heh. Glad you could start already though, I'd much rather play catch up than hold people back! B)

At the sight of a familiar face, Fellwing felt relief wash over her. It was strange; she had never met this brownie, nor exchanged a single word with him. She was nothing but a peculiar stranger to him, and yet she felt invested in his well-being. She always did, after 'meeting' someone in her visions. Usually however, she avoided confronting them in real life - let alone calling them by name.

But they had no time to dillydally, and introductions could wait until after they'd made it to safety. So, with a quick nod to Starwing, she followed after Alpin. They were quick and silent, like shadows fleeing from light - except the light was mutated brownies.

Solid ground was a welcome sight, and Fellwing had just managed to regain a proper posture when Alpin - who she'd noticed throw glances at her every now and again for a while - finally spoke up. He voiced his concerns, the exact ones that usually kept the black drake from letting others know she'd seen them in her dreams. She felt ashamed for having been so rash this time.

"That was--" she began in a hurry, trying to formulate an excuse as she went, but Stargaze was faster, and much less discreet. She blurted out the truth, and Fellwing felt as though one of the feral brownies from earlier had just latched onto her throat. Whatever she'd meant to say turned into a gasp. No! No one outside the clutch was supposed to know!

Eyes wide, the Seer turned to Alpin, afraid of his reaction. Thankfully, he seemed more embarrassed than accusatory or afraid. She let her gaze drop. "Y-you weren't, no. I'm sorry. For having spied on you, and for... startling you. Thank you for helping us." Her usually calm voice was marked by uncertainty, and she spoke barely above a whisper.

She turned to Stargaze. The change of topic was very welcome. "Yes, we need to get to Echo, and fast." For a moment she thought to suggest Alpin could ride on her back if he didn't want to swim, but she felt that would have made the awkwardness worse, not better. Why couldn't she ever get a vision of how to deal with people better?
