[QUOTE="JharyOConnah, post: 7878163, member: 7016431"] Selythin covered about half the distance to the ground, swooping back and pulling out his shield, but not before the snarling creature dove again into another clawed swipe. Luckily, the blow went over the elven prince's head as he was already descending. He looked at the fanged thing, and beyond at the hundreds, maybe thousands, of similar beasts flying toward his homeland. There was no doubt in Selythin's mind that these horrible monstrosities came from some dark corner of the abyss itself. These were creatures spawned from pure chaos. There was also no doubt to the prince that MOST, probably ALL, of the people back in the city and court of the imperials deserved whatever was coming to them. (The beast rolled higher on initiative and took its action. Your turn again!) * * * Kaylee held her ground, staring Josiah Jones straight in the eye. [B]"We don't have time for this, Gatekeeper. You need to listen now. We're safe for the time being, but we'll be found out soon enough."[/B] She went to the only chair in the little shanty and pulled it out from the only table, gesturing for the cowboy to sit. She stared at Jones until he closed the door. [B]"I want you to keep an open mind, Gatekeeper. Things aren't as meets the eye. I need you to believe me, because everything you stand for is about to be challenged. This world is not for long. Deals are being made and a new age is beginning as we speak. I...Infiri...need your help."[/B] Kaylee continued to hold the gaze as she let the last words sink in. Jones still felt that strange energy emanating from the small girl. SOMETHING weird was going on... * * * [B]"Al O? Is that you?"[/B] The old woman looked up from her puddle, pushing her soaked hat brim and hair back, pulling herself back out of the mud.
