Who: You! Me! Everybody!
Broadcast: idk but we've sure got a pretty broad cast of folks eh, eh
Action: HECK YEAH PLANET MINGLE
When: 10/7 until plot update or recaptcha

It's a deep, deep forest filled to the brim with fungi, mysterious life forms, and pitch black darkness. Explore if you dare and discover all these things and more! Just don't get lost...

I agree. I've been exploring to see if I can find a place where it's thinner or denser - get a feel for the flow of energy, or even elemental concentrations. [He shakes his head.] ...But right now the strongest aura of any particular element around here is you, and the mana density is pretty uniform. I'd like to get deeper into the woods, but I'm concerned about monster attacks. [From his tone, monster attacks are a mundane nuisance to be guarded against.]

[ He sighs and nods, clearly in agreement about the nuisance aspect. ]

Yeah, I've already dealt with a pissed-off bear. [ And a pissed-off lady at the same time, but that's irrelevant. ...He thinks. ] Don't wanna do it again, but I've kinda resigned myself to the fact that I'm probably gonna.

Wanna go together? Safety in numbers, or somethin' like that?

[ because two mages totally make a good party... ]

[A slight smirk, and Yuan nods.] Sounds like a plan to me.

[He starts leading the way toward the edge of the clearing.] ...Do you have a weapon? Part of my caution is that they took my sword when I arrived.

[ Eithan nods as he pulls a long dagger out of his coat. He offers it to Yuan, hilt forward. ]

They took my staff when I arrived... Haven't found a good replacement, so I've just started carryin' knives with me. Best I've got. You're welcome to this one, if you want it.

[Yuan takes it, inspecting it carefully. He was only checking to see if his companion was armed, but as long as he's offering, well...]

Beggars can't be choosers, I suppose. Thank you. [He slips it into his belt carefully, and lets his cloak fall to cover it.]

...So you must be a mage yourself, then? [Commenting on spellwork, feeling like mana, and wielding a staff = mage, surely.]
deviances: (no one owes you anything)

[personal profile] deviances 2016-11-27 04:44 am (UTC)(link)
Hey, no problem. [ Better than nothing, at least? ]

Yeah, I am. Fire element, explosive focus. [ He smiles, a little. As much as he despises the Order, he's still proud of his magic. ] Oh, uh, my name's Eithan, by the way. What about you?
cloakand_danger: (talk ϟ that this world has forgotten)

[personal profile] cloakand_danger 2016-11-27 09:47 am (UTC)(link)
Yuan. It's good to meet you. [Realizing he should have asked Eithan's name sooner...this place must have him more off-guard than he thought.]

'Explosive focus'? That's not something I'm familiar with where I come from.

[personal profile] deviances 2016-11-28 06:17 am (UTC)(link)
Good to meet you, too.

Yeah, I haven't found anyone here yet who is. Probably a world thing. [ He shrugs. ] It's like... personal use. All fire mages can make flames. But unless they feel and use their magic like I do? Theirs won't be as volatile as mine. Couldn't detonate things easy like I could, either.
