Ayara followed Talus' direction and looked, taking note of the odd piece of fabric wrapped around each of their arms. To her it didn't symbolize much. They were still Elves. This was still the Falwood. And they still had the advantage of the platform above the tree. What exactly Talus had...

Ayara followed closely behind Talus, taking his path and ensuring she didn't cause any additional stir beneath the trees as they crept towards the clearing. Her sight lifted to the platform above. It was simple in its construction, natural. The Elves and the forest were in a way symbiotic with...

This isn't part of the mission... Ayara didn't like the idea of deviating from their task to check out an outpost. It would cost them time and there was the whole aspect of knowing nothing about what they were walking into. However Talus seemed intent on investigating nonetheless. "Very...

She crept over towards Talus, careful not to accidentally step on anything she couldn't see. When she reached the spot he was kneeling she set her bag down and once again opened it. "Yes." Tucked away was a small leather tube that held the rolled map inside to protect it from the elements...

She wasn't so sure about that. It was her personal goal to right the wrong she had unleashed, but she held little hope for ever achieving it. First she would need to become much stronger, and then she would have to actually track down this demon, wherever it had gone. A daunting task to think...

As she slid over the opposite side of the trunk, pulling her bag with her she sighed at Talus' question. Properly conveying the fear she had that day was impossible. Describing the demon that tore through the veil was also an unpleasant recollection. "A greater fire demon of some kind, one...

The act of receiving her blindness wasn't a subject she was keen of. There was more to that scar than the physical trauma. That was a grievous error in calculation that had cost far more than just a part of her vision. That monster was still out there somewhere. And every heinous act it...

"Neither." She offered. "Just different." She rolled her shoulders and smiled. "Losing part of my sight in a way opened my eyes to the world in a greater way than I had seen before. Some might interpret my lessons learned as weakness, but I've grown and found it to be an opportunity to learn...

"I don't have competition." She said frankly. "Sometimes the necromancers harass me, but by and large they're pretty harmless in their tormenting." Her hands turned, palms up for a moment as if to gesture a sort of I don't know. "I study a lot. It's difficult to get into brawls when you're...

It seemed to be the common tale. Apprentices vying for what little scraps of meaningless power they thought they could obtain by killing their perceived competition. It wasn't a tango Ayara had to contend much with, given her rather lack thereof when it came to a typical class. The necromancers...

The joke really was low hanging fruit. Too easy. Still, it was more conversation with another person than she typically had at the academy. Most of her conversations took place in her head, or with beings that did not share the same existence with her. So she afforded her traveling companion a...

"Oh." There was arguably no denying what had happened in that case. Ayara thought it best to reserve her opinion on the matter, however. That he hadn't been able to accomplish the deed a second time was also, likely, for the best. That was a volatile employment of magic, one she couldn't help...

As they walked Ayara listened to Talus retell the story of what had happened is Sel Faena. Discomforting as it was to hear about, it was useful knowledge, particularly for her. It was not something she had witnessed, nor heard of happening before, but certainly felt plausible. If anyone were to...

"Peculiar." It was the only word that accurately described what she thought of the magic. She had known of other magics that augmented the physical abilities of the user, but this wasn't the same. Perhaps some kind of relative magic but nothing she had ever come across, though her experience was...

The look on her face when he both explained and demonstrated was one of dumbfounded. Ayara had no idea what she was looking at, or what he was doing, or what the purpose behind it was. To her it looked as though a part of him entered the veil where the spirits or demons she called from existed...
